Summary
The mark is vibrant, blooming black and purple. It’s stunning in the way it contrasts with Kiyoomi’s pale skin, an unmistakable brand. It feels like a piece of art painted directly onto his body. His eyes fall to Atsumu after. It’s a reflex, a mistake.
If he thought he could explain Atsumu’s evident hunger away as his imagination earlier, that excuse is gone now. Atsumu’s eyes are lidded, lust-filled — starving.
Kiyoomi is fascinated with hickeys, but he's never had one. The only person he trusts to change that is Atsumu.

Summary
Nearing the fourth hour of the silent treatment, Kiyoomi’s already frayed nerves began to whittle down to their last fibers.

Summary
Kiyoomi woke up knowing deep in his being that it was a bad day. The persistent dread had lodged inside his head again, an ambient, slow thrumming, its sound serrated and misshapen.
Atsumu could give him quiet. He had almost forgotten what it was like before, when he lived alone.
Yearning was a strange emotion. It wasn't a feeling but the absence of one, like something in his chest was slowly being scooped out.
(Kiyoomi has a series of bad days. Atsumu is away in France.)
