the sun, a yuzu kiss ch. 4

ch. 4: sneak into my bird cage. Steam, and golden eyes, and the breathless cycle of saying "no" even though your whole stupid heart has signed "yes" in blood... Pairing: Tōga/Izayoi Rating: Upgraded to an E rating

Read on Ao3 plus long-ass a/n with content warning after the cut:

CW: gentle self-breathplay

It took me a minute to work through where I wanted to go with this, but ultimately decided to put an E-rating on it. Whenever I write erotica, I also want it to do some character work. I had to think on where I wanted Izayoi to go with her fantasies. Even if breathplay isn't your "thing", I feel like the gentle touches of it in the prose suit her character as written in here so please don't let it stop you if this isn't a trigger for you <3 I am still really enjoying writing Izayoi's register as airy, dreamy, internally sensual but externally sheltered, and craving freedom. I also enjoy writing Tōga's as decisive, with an amused self-awareness he notices from a wry distance. I view him as a sharp, tactical mind, with a hedonist's palate. Fitting for a powerful dog daiyokai with a soft spot for humans, I think.

Finally, the cycling perspective was technically inspired by @inuparentsday, even if it's more oblique in execution of the actual theme lol. I like the idea of two people being apart, but kind of cycling around the inevitable of being together.

No Safe Choice

Summary:

Humans existed in cycles too.  He had always known this in theory.  Blood. Moon. Birth.  He had never imagined finding himself swept up in one.

Hello Hello Hello Everyone! Long time no post xD

So you know how most people name their fics by something inside them, or a vibe, or a core theme? Well not me today! Today I named my little 1700 word fic based on what happened as I was developing it-- a pattern emerged and I realized there is a certain kind of love story I really just can't get enough of. Transformations: and loving someone no matter what happens to them.

Ladyhawke, Swan Princess, Last Unicorn, the ending of Wicked 2. Inuyasha, arguably :D

Anyway, please enjoy this little frame narrative of Izayoi teaching her little sick son that love isn't about that someone looks like.
