Yuma just wanted one quiet year. One last year of high school before finally settling down-no more goodbyes, no more change. But then he met Haruki-quiet, guarded, and hiding more pain than anyone should carry alone.
What started as a simple friendship turns into a lifeline, as Yuma finds himself walking beside someone who's still haunted by the past. But some wounds go deeper than words can reach... and sometimes, healing begins with just one person who refuses to walk away.

A story of friendship, trauma, and the silent strength of being there.

For years now though, Yuhi has struggled with his growing feelings of love for Kyoya, and it has been a struggle for him to suppress them as he not only doesn't want to jeopardize his friendship with Kyoya but he also struggles comes to terms with his own sexuality. When Kyoya unexpectedly kisses him one day, Yuhi is overcome with joy at the prospect the person he loves may return his feelings. However...things are not all well. Little does Yuhi know that his best friend Shibuya also harbors feelings for him, and Kyoya and Shibuya have been quietly battling each other for years for Yuhi's affections, with Yuhi none the wiser.

Somewhere Between Then and Now

1 part Ongoing

Arin never meant to fall apart. Not loudly. Not dramatically. Just quietly - one bad day at a time. At fourteen, he feels invisible at home, disconnected at school, and trapped inside a mind that won't slow down. His friends want popularity. His parents want perfection. Arin just wants to breathe. After a night where everything cracks, Arin begins the slow climb back - through music, drawing, new friendships, and the quiet moments that rebuild a person when nobody's watching. A story about breaking, healing, growing, and learning to stand again. Not perfectly. Just honestly. A deeply emotional coming-of-age journey for anyone who's ever felt lost between who they were and who they're becoming.
