Julius listened quietly. Not just to the words Yukie said, but to everything underneath them. The tension in his shoulders. The way his fingers hovered a little too tightly over the teacup. The slight quake in his voice when he talked about rules, and the hesitation when he confessed what the mirror had shown him. It wasn’t just a bad morning. It was something old. Something Yukie had clearly carried a long time—sharp-edged, unexamined, buried deep in careful routines and flawless control. And now it was bleeding out across the breakfast table. When Yukie stopped speaking, then the last thread of his confession drifted into silence, Julius didn’t rush to fill the space. He took a moment to breath and think. Letting the moment settle like dust in sunlight. Then, he reached across the table. His hand found Yukie’s—solid, calm, a point of contact meant to ground the other. He didn’t speak right away. Not until he was sure Yukie was still here with him and not drifting too far into the self-loathing that always followed moments like this. Then finally and softly he said. “You didn’t overreact.” Julius kept his voice steady—quiet, but firm enough to cut through the fog of guilt in Yukie’s eyes. “You were clear about what you needed. Someone ignored that. That’s not immaturity. That’s not instability. That’s disrespect. And you reacted in the way you knew to.” His thumb brushed gently over Yukie’s knuckles, a small ritual of reassurance. A tactile spell. Quiet magic in the shape of care. “I’ve known warlocks who salt their windowsills every night. Familiars who can’t stand certain wood in the house because it messes with their attunement. I’ve watched my own grandmother refuse to use mirrors because they didn't showe her the young face she had, when she was young.” He tilted his head slightly, catching Yukie’s eye—not forcing, just inviting. “There’s nothing broken about creating a space where you feel safe. That’s not weakness. That’s wise because you know your reactions.” A pause. Julius’s gaze softened. “And you’re not the only one in this relationship who’s dealt with ugly reflections.” He could feel Yukie begin to retreat emotionally. The subtle pullback of someone embarrassed to have been witnessed too clearly. But Julius didn’t let go. “You’re allowed to want peace,” he said, gently. “You’re allowed to have control over your space. And if mirrors trigger something inside you—something dark, something dangerous—that doesn’t make you less. It means you’re still carrying something that hasn’t been healed yet.” Another pause. “And that’s okay.” Julius shifted, resting his forearms on the table, leaning closer. His voice lowered even more—intimate now, like a vow spoken in sacred space. “When you leave to figure it out… to face whatever part of yourself still lingers in those reflections…” He didn’t need to finish the sentence with poetry. Instead, he said the truth plainly: “You won’t be alone.” He meant it, on every level. Emotionally and spiritually. Their bond—deep, slow-burning, rooted in care—wasn’t some fragile thread to be snapped by distance or difficulty. Julius didn’t just love Yukie. He chose him. Again and again. And this? This darkness? It wasn’t too much. “I’ll be there when you come back,” Julius said, “and I’ll make sure wherever we settle next doesn’t have a single reflective surface. You can have the whole damn closet, and then some.” His smile was crooked. Small. Full of warmth and quiet fire. “You don’t scare me, Yukie. Not the polished version of you, and not the raw one either. And whatever you find in that reflection… I trust you’ll make peace with it. Maybe even learn its name.” He squeezed Yukie’s hand, one last firm press of affection and promise. Then, quieter: “And when you’re ready… we’ll build a home that moves with us.” ---------------- Certainly! Here's a continuation from Yumro's and Shan's points of view, aligning with your vision—where Yumro physically stays by Shan's side to protect and comfort him, while simultaneously manifesting in shadow form to reach out to Haru. The tone and rhythm mirror the earlier sections, maintaining that quiet, reverent connection to the ocean. Yumro stayed still, but his shadow did not. While his body remained near Shan, calm and glowing faintly in the filtered blue, a second shape unfurled beneath him—flickering, formless at first. It stretched long across the sea floor like spilled ink, then gathered itself and flowed away from his feet, toward the reef’s edge and beyond, into the deeper stone. Shan didn’t notice. Or if he did, he said nothing. He was watching the whale sharks. One hand had drifted up, fingers outstretched—not to touch, but just to feel closer. As if the nearness of something so old and gentle made the water around them softer. Yumro glanced down at him briefly. The boy’s energy was full of light, but underneath it, a slight thrum of anxiety lingered. Not fear. But awareness. The weight of the moment. The vastness of the ocean. The deep realization that he was very small. Yumro laid a hand gently on Shan’s shoulder, grounding him. The gesture was wordless reassurance: You are not alone. And far away, in the still-dark cave where Haru knelt before something older than memory— Yumro arrived. Or rather, his shadow did. It stretched across the jagged cave wall in silence, untouched by the light from above. A shimmer passed over it, then the shape coalesced—an echo of Yumro’s form standing just at the edge of the clearing inside the cave. No glow. No current stirred from it. It simply was, like something the stone itself remembered. It spoke—not in sound, but in vibration, the way whales called or currents whispered across the bones of the reef. “Don’t even think about bringing it home.” The words moved like ripples through the still water. The great eel’s yellow eye narrowed ever so slightly. Its body, coiled beneath Haru like a living ledge, did not flinch or strike. It watched. Aware. Yumro’s shadow tilted its head. It didn’t threaten. But the tone was unmistakable—firm. Immovable. “This one is not yours. None of them are. They are not pets. Not prizes.” “They are where they belong. You are not.” The eel’s long body shifted, subtly. Its tail uncoiled partway behind Haru, nudging the boy—not to harm, but as if encouraging him to listen. The cave responded with a low resonance. A pulse that hummed through the rock and the eel both. As though the place itself agreed. Yumro’s shadow didn’t move closer. It didn’t need to. “You felt it calling. And you came. That’s fine. The sea wants to show you. But it also wants you to understand.” There was a pause. Then softer: “Come back, Haru. Come rejoin us. There is more to see. Things that don’t need you to crawl into darkness to find them.” Outside the cave, in the open blue, another whale shark turned slowly beneath Yumro and Shan. Light danced off its back in broken patterns, and Shan mirrored it unknowingly, arms drifting wide like fins. His energy was calm again. Balanced. Yumro, the real Yumro, still stood beside him. His hand had never left Shan’s shoulder. But down in the cave, his shadow faded a little, like mist peeling away from rock. “Don’t make me come in there.” Even as a shadow, the amusement in his tone was dry and unmistakable. But could still sound fondly. He stay around Haru in a swirl of black tendrils, keeping to the shadown, like he wasn’t even there..

Yukie sighed a little at Kai’s gentle touch the man secretly enjoying every second of it, it was comforting though he would never admit it.Sitting and staring at the tv Yukie didn’t protest as he was cared for and bandaged. He wouldn’t lie that for once the pain was rather intense and he needed the care. While he had been beaten before and came to Kai for a break…this client had gone to the extreme. As Kai settled down more beside him Yukie looked over a little as he felt Kai’s head rest against his shoulder. Yukie wouldn’t ever admit it, he would stay cold and distance himself from any affection he knew falling for Kai wasn’t allowed. He was a fallen man, and one in a dangerous position where Kai would get hurt if his “Boss” thought he was trying to get out or get away. It was better for them both if Yukie just existed in his life…he knew though if Kai ever left him it would be the end of his safe place. Sitting and watching the tv numbly Yukie finished his beer only to catch Kai trying to hold his hand. Yukie of course flinching at the touch as he found the softness of Kai’s hand holding his rather nice. “I’m fine..…It was just a little disagreement…nothings broken and I’m not seriously hurt. You should worry more about your own life.” Yukie stated his voice cold as he spoke towards Kai the escort truly believing his words since in his mind if he didn’t end up in a hospital he wasn’t excused from his work. Sitting beside Kai Yukie refused to look at him he refused to fall for such tricks…but when he fully felt Kai hold his hand Yukie couldn’t help the small shift of comfort he felt from the act. “You know I can’t quit. I just can’t…” Yukie snapped the conversation one that had been repeated over the years as he pulled away sharply from Kai feeling his friend had overstepped. Looking at Kai with such angry and hurt eyes Yukie glared down at him before setting his drink down on the table and getting up the act proving to be more painful that he thought. Standing away from Kai Yukie went over to the window and opened it to smoke the man seriously mulling over his options. Taking out the pack he pulled one out his fingers shaking as Yukie took a few minutes to light it before finally taking a deep breath and exhaling out the window. He was in hot water at work, dangerously hot water. He knew his boss was going to beat his ass on sight for even having the gall to fight back against his client and Yukie, he had fought back dirty and hard. The man he had left in the hotel room bleeding out definitely had a few deep stab wounds from the broken bottle Yukie had shoved into his stomach. It had been his only way of escape from a torture filled weekend. Yukie knew he needed to lay low…buy himself some time and hide away just long enough for his boss to cool down. There was also the fact he lost the payment…it was so much…he could earn the money away from his boss…he had done it before when the men skipped paying. Yukie could pay his “Boss” back what he lost and it would be less of a beating, and he would be back in his “Boss’s” graces and allowed back home. It would be easy right? Just two weeks tops. Taking a final drag of his cigarette Yukie put it out in the windowsill and breathed out the fumes before closing the window as he looked down at Kai. ”I….I might need to stay for a bit. Can’t exactly go back to work looking like this…I…could stay until some bruising heals.” Yukie said with a small frown as he looked down at Kai not willing to let his heart fall for the male. “I…I need a place to stay until my second job starts in the evening….I do freelance work in my spare time. I’ll take care of your place while you work…cook and laundry and such.” Yukie explained trying to play off his acceptance of staying. Yukie had decided he was going to do easier clients for a while until he looked better until he could pay what he owed. “I need a Fucking shower. I smell like shit” Yukie grumbled as he went to go help himself to a hot shower not even having noticing the whole time his words were slurring as he walked towards the bathroom. Yukie wouldn’t have understood the slow effect of the drugs Aphrodisiac on his body he wouldn’t have understood the burning running through his body or the sudden…urges he was feeling. He hadn’t ever touched such things the male being so careful in keeping away from drugs and only doing small amounts when safe. Feeling the deep fiery burn of the drugs coursing through his body Yukie suddenly stumbled forward his body aflame as he caught himself on the wall. Taking a moment Yukie closed his eyes swearing as he realized he had been drugged. His body suddenly burning with deep need and a desire to be touched and fucked in ways that would shame anybody not in his line of work…he needed to quench the slutty thirst inside of him.. ********************************** Haru was groggy as he got up four hours later the man slowly getting dressed and ready for his shift. Gathering his things he headed to the bathroom and after showering and dressing he was out the door. Thirty minutes later he was at work deep in the closet organizing the inventory the man standing on the stepstool as he pulled jars down from the shelves ignoring his pervy boss watching him. Haru was wearing what his boss demanded, his hair was pulled back in a cute thick curly ponytail, and while he wasn’t fond of the outfit he was grateful it wasn’t a size smaller. The scrubs at least allowed for him to comfortably move around and were just a touch tight against his body when be bent and was reaching like this. Whoever he reached up it showing off his toned body mostly his stomach and lower back. At times he couldn’t help but feel the outfit was deliberate after his first day joining since he was the only one working in this department and from what he knew his colleagues wore much more normal attire. ”Ah! Found it! It was in the wrong spot sir.” Haru explained as he smiled down at the man before climbing down and handing his boss the medicine. “Somehow it got in the wrong area, I could have swore I cleaned up in here last week well enough.” Haru admitted as he awkwardly smiled and turned to put away the ones he had pulled down. “Haru, all the students being mentored are going out tonight with there bosses, sort of a celebration for their hard work. I would like to take you out for drinks with everyone. You’ve been such a hard worker for me over the last six months.” Tadashiro said with a smile as he gently patted Haru’s back. “We can go together and meet up with everyone after work it would be a nice end to your apprenticeship here.” Tadashiro stated as Haru smiled kindly. Haru knew he couldn’t reject his bosses offer since he had rejected him from day one. Haru had no choice but to be flexible now since his boss would be writing his letter of work recommending and his skillset proving how well he did for the last six months. ”I think I would be free tonight, plus working so long I think I could use a break and a chance to see all my other colleagues.” Haru admitted as he smiled politely at the old man knowing he was in for a night of drinking and hopefully a way to let the man down easily. -later- “Yeah Tadashiro, I came where you said but I don’t see you. I think…I might have taken the wrong bus.” Haru stated as he looked around the glowing night light and colorful scene around him something he had never seen before. Standing in the street Haru sighed as he checked his phone waiting for his bosses message back or hell even a phone call. Haru cursed a little kicking himself for not going with his collages but well he couldn’t go out in his work clothes it was easier to go home and change. Standing in the middle of the red district chaos Haru had dressed in what his co workers had suggested a bright and fun shirt and some nice black jeans basically an outfit he felt hot in. Checking his phone again Haru was oblivious to the world around him as he called Tadashiro again and then his colleagues all of his calls going to voicemail as they were all four drinks in at a bar only six buildings down from where Haru was. “Maybe I should ask for directions.” Haru whispered as he looked around and then to a building busy with tons of men dressed much like him (workers dressed flashy) and went inside to find someone in charge not knowing he was going straight into a lions den.

Synopsis Midori is in a bit of a bind. She is in debt, and her landlady is trying to shake her down for unpaid rent. Her best friend refuses to loan her cash since she's wised up to her tricks. Maybe some bullying would help. Or a bit of petty theft? Neither is sustainable. Maybe getting a job would settle things... But working means less time for fun adventures in the big city...
