Nagizuru au creatures ~ probably their most normal drawings ever.
đ©¶
Today marks one year since I made my first Nagizuru post. I never thought I would love this beast so much. Thank you all so much for enjoying this au!
Here you have a small lighthearted fic written by @draconicsparkle as a gift. It's not connected to the original story, just them celebrating a regular birthday. They spoil them too much! âŹïžâŹïž
How long had it been since then? So long. Both the creation date and their escapes. But in a strange way, Hajime was glad they had experienced all those hardships and difficult times. For without them, the two of them wouldnât appreciate the bliss they were living in nearly as much.
Hajime thought this as his one working eye stared out the window in the small kitchen. The garden was visible from here, where all kinds of flowers and plants were growing. Gardening was one of Izuruâs many talents, after all. It would be odd if it wasnât growing splendidly.
A small smile grew as he recalled the many hours they had spent sitting in the gazebo they had built in the middle of the garden, sandwiches and lemonade in hand while the butterflies and bees flew by.
But today wouldnât be spent in the garden. No, Hajime had other plans. Hence why he was in the kitchen earlier in the morning. Izuru was still in their bedroom, sleeping away without sedatives. He wouldnât dare wake him up, even now when they were far away from the Lighthouseâs rubble.
He bent down to check the ovenâs window, pleased to see the cake sheets baking nicely. He grabbed an oven mitt and pulled the pans out, sliding them on the cooling rack. They were the perfect shade and smelled amazing. While they cooled, the brunette got busy preparing the whipped cream and cutting the strawberries he had picked yesterday. He focused hard on his task, not stopping until his creation was fully constructed. A beautiful and practically flawless strawberry shortcake. He almost felt bad for cutting into it and pulling a slice out to place on the plate. But he was far more eager to see the reaction, so he didnât mourn the perfection.
After gathering a fork and a glass of milk, he placed everything on a tray and carefully picked it up. His months of practice came in handy, as the tray remained balanced the whole way to the bedroom. Using a shoulder, he bumped the door open so his hands didnât leave the tray. Soon enough, he was placing the tray down on the nightstand. By this point, he knew the Ultimate Hope was awake now. âGood morning. Was your sleep restful?â
The red eyes gazed up at him, still mysterious and cryptic, though not nearly as hard anymore. Being free of pain and drugs was most likely the reason. âI can confirm that it was. The aroma of your creation coaxed me back to consciousness. Not that I mind this pleasant method of awakening.â
âIâm glad you think so, si-â Hajime paused, laughing in embarrassment. âI mean Izuru.â
The white-haired man smirked up at him. âSlip of the tongue?â
Hajime scratched his cheek, right under his silk eye cover. âOld habits die hard, I guess.â
âBut they are getting to be fewer and less frequent,â Izuru observed. He sat up, the large shirt he was wearing slipping off a shoulder. âCan you hand me a hair tie, my dear caretaker?â he requested once he had risen into a comfortable position.
The brunette was quick to do so, though he did it with a grin. âThat was on purpose. Youâre teasing me, arenât you?â
Izuruâs smirk didnât diminish, even as he began gathering his long hair and weaving the hair tie around the locks. âObservant as always, my dear. Just one of the many traits I adore about you.â
Hajime felt his cheeks redden. He still wasnât able to hide his reactions to Izuruâs words of affection. âI-I do my best.â
âThat you do.â Izuru finished making his ponytail, letting it rest against his back. He then reached forward, tugging on Hajimeâs arms. The strength of the tugs had been unexpectedly strong and Hajime found himself falling onto the bed alongside Izuru with a yelp.
âMuch better,â Izuru stated as he hugged Hajime to his chest. âWouldnât you agree?â
The brunette wiggled only slightly to get more comfortable. âBut⊠donât you want your cake?â
âIn a few moments. Let me indulge myself on this first,â was the reply. A pleased hum followed, along with some shoulder rubs that felt amazing. âAnother day of tranquility. One that we earned for our perseverance through the blood and pain. The torture those foolish scientists inflicted while playing God. But I suppose it would be best to not dwell upon such horrid memories. It is beneficial to move on and build oneself back up stronger than before.â
The caretaker chuckled. âThat the Ultimate Therapist at work? Putting in overtime, for sure.â
âPerhaps. But I will utilize my abilities for our sakes and lives. And Iâm sure you are well aware of this.â One of Izuruâs hands migrated up to his hair, scratching his scalp and conjuring happy noises from the receiver.
âWhat did I do to deserve this? So nice,â Hajime muttered, relaxing into the comforting touches.
âIf you would like reasons, I can compile a list. But be aware that it is a long one. It would take some time to read them all,â Izuru replied with his eternal smile.
âI appreciate the offer, but I think Iâll decline. You know how I am with rapid fire compliments.â The brunette relaxed under the ministrations, enjoying every second.
âOh, I do have something to retrieve. Remain here in bed, okay?â Izuru withdrew and extracted himself from the bed covers, standing up and walking over to his closet. Hajime watched in confusion, especially as the pale man pulled out a giant crocheted blanket with a mandala design. âYou are always making things for me, so I figured I could return the favor. It was surprisingly easy to keep my work on this little project secret from you. Though, I am certainly not complaining,â Izuru commented as he brought the blanket over, laying it over Hajime and tucking him in. âThe pattern is a representation of our spiritual and physical journey through our lives. That we found our fulfillment after our struggles. Quite fitting, wouldnât you agree?â
Hajimeâs eyes, both functional and broken, widened at the colorful blanket now around him. He ran a hand over the design, admiring the nice material and the quality of the gift. âI⊠I donât know what to say⊠This isâŠâ
Izuru sat next to him, sliding under the blanket next to him. âI already know, so donât fret. Nothing needs to be expressed.â He leaned over to the nightstand and grabbed the plate and fork. âNow then, how about we try your splendid creation?â The full strawberry on top was speared with the fork and was raised to their faces. âIâll give you the honor of taking the decoration. You wonât refuse, will you?â
Hajimeâs breath was shaky as he nodded. âYou know that I would never refuse anything from you. Neither back then, nor now.â
âExcellent. Though there is one condition to get this. You will have to take it from me.â Izuru placed the lower half of the strawberry into his mouth, the thicker half sticking out. And the mischievous look in those ruby red eyes implied exactly what Izuru was insinuating.
Hajimeâs face turned as red as the berry. They were about to do this, werenât they? But he couldnât go back on his promise, so he swallowed his nerves. He leaned forward and locked lips with the other, the kiss tasting like the sweet fruit. It lasted for several moments, neither of them eager to break it. Eventually, they did separate, the strawberry now in Hajimeâs mouth. He focused on chewing to buy himself time to calm down from the rush of emotions. Though this was easily seen by the Ultimate Analyst, if the smirk was anything to go off of.
âNow, I shall taste test your work. Though I donât doubt it will be fantastic. Thank you for the treat,â the Ultimate Hope said as he cut into the cake and took a delicate bite. âA nice way to wake up and start the day. And hereâs to many more in our future.â
Hajime snuggled under the beautiful blanket a little more, resting his head on Izuruâs shoulder. Finally comfortable with initiating close contact after all this time. âYes. I hope and wish for that, too.â
