Day 4 - Separation

Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc V Angst Week // A Stacked Deck

Warnings: None

Word Count: 500ish

  Sayaka was devastated when Yuto and Shun put forth their plan to rescue Ruri. She had already been dwelling on heavy-hearted guilt ever since her kidnapping, but the thought of a rescue mission was too dangerous and too daunting. She wanted to protest but there was little she could do. She was of fragile, small voice and those boys had already steeled themselves as much as they could in the chaos.

  Ever since Ruri’s kidnapping, everyone had been a changed person. She had been an integral part of everyone’s support systems. Listening kindly to every complaint and helping out as she could. She was the wartime rose, without a doubt.

  Sayaka had always admired Ruri. She was confident and serene with grace beyond her years. She was magnetic, and her placidity always drew Sayaka in and made her feel safe. Even in the hardships that had followed the invasion and fall of Heartland, Ruri had that effect not just on her, but everyone. With her gone, all Sayaka could do was dwell and concentrate on the guilt she felt.

  If she had been a better duellist then maybe, just maybe, things could have turned out for the better.

  And, as Sayaka looks at the Yuto and Shun who have made their final speech and were going through their farewells, she wonders what someone stronger than her might say. Sayaka wants to say a lot things: she wants to yell and protest. She doesn’t want Yuto or Shun to leave. Especially Shun…

  Sayaka’s woes in regard to Ruri’s kidnapping vanished when compared to Shun’s. After all, he had always been an overprotective older brother. This was likely his nightmare scenario. It was no wonder that he was so fiercely in favour of sending himself and Yuto into another world in the hopes of fighting against Academia and rescuing Ruri.

  For a while now, Sayaka had been quietly admiring Shun, as well as Ruri. There was something stellar about the Kurosaki siblings; in their own ways, they were differently cut from the crowd. Its not that Sayaka was envious, although… there was a hint of that too. She just wanted to be close to them both.

  In the immediate wake and grief of losing Ruri, Sayaka had attempted her best at soothing Shun. But his grief was terrifying. It was violent and wrathful, as teary as it was. He felt strong emotions and Sayaka was, honestly, trembling as a result of them but it was likely better for him to at least have some outlet that didn’t hurt himself. It was, in hindsight, a scary moment but Sayaka cherishes it nonetheless.

  And as he and Yuto gear up to leave, Sayaka finally finds her little voice.

  “Wait.” she mumbles.

  Allen, beside her, nudges her. “Guys, Sayaka wants to say something.” He barks at them before they can go.

  The separation was immediate. Sayaka knew herself to be more useful here, tending to the wounded and preparing soup but still. She wanted to say something.

  “Please come home safely.” She mumbles.

  Yuto glances at Shun. His expression softens whereas Shun’s does not.

  “We will.” Shun assures her nonetheless.

  After such a curt statement, turns his back on Sayaka and the rest of the group. And then, he and Yuto were gone.

  With that Sayaka found herself on her knees, sobbing. She was certain that they wouldn’t come home safely; if at all.

Prompt: Day 2 - Sensitive

Pairing: Hummingbirdshipping (Kurosaki Shun/Sasayama Sayaka)

I really, really wanted to write something set in Xyz during the time just before Yuuto and Shun skip off to Standard--especially after learning, you know, that they left some people there.

"Shun?" she called, knocking once more on the back door. "I've brought more soup. Can I come in today?"

As she waited, Sayaka braced herself for the inevitable refusal. Though it had grown softer over time, Shun’s forceful voice had denied her and any others entry to his old home ever since Ruri was kidnapped on her way back to it. There was really no reason why today would be any different.

“...Come in, Sayaka.”

She almost dropped the soup bowl. It was overcast today again, but for her the sun may as well have just come out, and brought some flying pigs for good measure.

Her mother’s voice echoed in her head from an old memory. Wonderful, Sayaka-chan! Remember to always persevere. Always take at least one step forward. If not for yourself, then for those you care about.

“Coming,” she said hastily, and pushed the door open with her hip. Above her, moths made a break for the back door’s light; at waist level, a thin layer of dust covered cabinets, chairs and couches.

She eventually found Shun in his bedroom (which of course she blushed furiously before entering) cradling his left arm to his side, which once again put the poor soup bowl in danger of befriending the floor.

“Oh my--are you okay?!”

The older boy visibly winced. “I’m fine... besides you damaging my ears with that shriek.”

“But your arm...”

“I’ve got it handled. About that soup...”

Sayaka set it down on the old dresser beside him, relieved it was still warm. “Here it is.”

Shun didn’t thank her, which was nothing new--normally she waited outside for hours calling to him before finally leaving the food for him to sneak out and get. No thank-you notes ever materialized outside the refugee shelter after their usual routine of him coming to get food, either, so she didn’t wait around for any changes now.

That didn't mean she wasn't a little hurt by his new habit of pushing everyone away.

"Quit that."

She startled out of her own head, going even redder when she saw Shun's gold eyes pinning her in place like dumb prey. "I--I-- wh--wha?"

"Staring, Sayaka--quit staring," he snapped, between slurps of soup and minor position-shifts on his bed.

The reprimand left her dumbfounded at first, before his behavior as a whole caused Sayaka to feel a flicker of annoyance. With another bit of bravery still left in her, she snapped right back. "I was only counting how many times I might have already made you a splint if you weren't so stubborn!"

Shun turned to look at her faster than he ever had; he even had the good sense to look apologetic and sheepish as he held out his broken arm and tried out some one-handed soup-slurping.

Sayaka had the splint done in less than an hour.

"Thanks," Shun said softly at the end, grudgingly. He seemed to mellow out the longer she'd had her hands on him. He still wasn't the way he'd been before the invasion--but Sayaka didn't think he ever would be again. It didn't seem possible to go back.

While washing the soup bowl and some of her old clothes across the house, she looked around for its other occupant, noticing for the first time on her way back that he didn't seem to be there. That was probably the main reason behind Shun's strikingly good mood.

"Shun," she queried gently as she re-entered his space, "where's Yuut--?"

"Don't."

Ack! Despite herself, she quailed. His tone had slipped into the subzero range. Worse, it meant that Yuuto was gone. But had he run off to clear his head or--or had he been--?!

"B-b-but what... happened to him?"

Shun's voice was a growl all the way through. "Left. To try and find clues about where they took Ruri."

Left? "So he's left Heartland? Left the continent?"

"No. He's left our dimension--without me."

"Our dimension? Kuro--Shun, what do you mean 'our dimension'?"

"I mean," he bit out impatiently, "there's more than just our world. Academia came to attack us from another dimension--that's what we found out, that's why we'd never heard of them before. And there are two more dimensions besides this one and theirs."

Dimensions... Academia... Yuuto, gone. As if Sayaka didn't already want to crawl under a rock and die every day. First my cowardice got Ruri taken without even a fight, now Yuuto's left to find her before I could stop him. I've made Shun lose his sister and his best friend! How can he stand to look at me?

She tried to inject some hope into the despondent conversation. "Yuuto can't have left any earlier than the day before yesterday. M-Maybe... he'll be back soon, with Ruri!"

"I'm not waiting around to find out. I'm following Yuuto, and we'll be coming back with her."

The words dropped the bottom out of her world.

Even in the darkest days and times, Yuuto or Shun had shown up to save her, Allen and Kaito from the ruthless Obelisk soldiers. Yuuto leaving without word was bad enough--and severely crippled their counterattack forces. But Shun knowingly leaving them at Academia's mercy as well...?!

"You can't!" she blurted desperately. This was not a penance she was ready to pay for her sin against her best friend--nor was it one any of them could afford to pay.

"I have to go."

"No! You don't! What about the Resistance--who will help Kaito lead us? Who can protect all our territory when we're already spread thin? What about the innocent families--children--who are too scared to duel now, or have forsaken dueling? They'll be carded without you!"

"Then they'll have to learn how to fight!" Shun barked. "Just like Yuuto and I did."

"But--they're--they're not all tough and fearless like you!"

"They'll learn!" he roared, waving his good arm. He looked wild, mad as a hatter. "I can't stay here and babysit the whole city while my sister's in danger. I won't."

"Shun, please--"

He got up, shrugging his father's old coat stiffly around his non-functional arm. "I've already made up my mind."

Sayaka cursed her eyes, feeling them sting. Do I really have to lose him too, on top of everything else? "Please, Shun! We need you. Don't--don't leave us!"

That made him stop, if only for a minute. The whole dimension held its breath with her, awaiting his final word.

"...All right, I'll stay. But just until my arm is healed."

Everything breathed in. Sayaka could not remember oxygen ever before having such a bittersweet tang.

Perhaps their peace would have lasted a long time, but Shun was gone when Sayaka woke up.

She'd fallen asleep last night after eating some old bread he'd pushed at her--all she remembered was him insisting she take the bed, then a hazy thought that he'd slept nearby all night to look after her, close enough that his breathing overexcited her before lulling her to sleep.

When she did wake up, Shun's old jacket was draped around her, and she'd felt a rush of excitement and satisfaction before realizing what that had to mean.

He lied... he said he'd stay, and he lied.

Eventually she motivated herself to get up and put things back in order before heading back to the remnants of the rebellion--she had to go, or Allen would be worried out of his mind.

But Sayaka stopped just before she started dusting covers and wiping down surfaces. Shun was gone and he might never come back, even if he did find Ruri. There was too much of a disconnect between him and home now.

In the last conversation they might have ever had, he yelled at her and was painfully selfish. Why should she do anything else for him?

I shouldn't lift another finger for Kurosaki Shun, not after he abandoned us. Knowingly. But--why does even thinking that make me hurt?

She gathered the bowl she'd brought, scurrying out the door.

Why am I still trying to see his side, after all of this?

She ducked down alleys and went through other abandoned houses to avoid the soldiers combing the streets, but the stinging pain in her heart and the questions in her mind couldn't be avoided.

Shun may have left today, but he's really been gone for too long. Why am I just missing him now?

...Why do I miss him at all?

[tamethespaghetti]

I love them so much part 2/100000000000.

28 + 54 Hummingbirdshipping

28. Proposal Fic  + 54. Secret Relationship  

Ok so, it’s extremely low key like Sayaka doesn’t even realise at first that a) she’s been proposed to and b) she accepted. Shun doesn’t give her a ring, instead he gets her a necklace with the Raid Raptors symbol as a pendant (except maybe its upside down or something so its not Suspicious) and he gets himself a piercing with the same symbol and also he asks her an innocuous question like “How do you feel about me making breakfast tomorrow? And the day after?”

And Sayaka’s like: Shun??? Breakfast duty??? Yes, sure but I’ll make dinner tomorrow and the day after.

Also their relationship is secret because of the post-war efforts like; not to mention, he does this quite young like maybe 3-4 years post-canon. Marriage is like on no one’s minds except his apparently. But yeah
