Summary
Shuuichi hated seeing Natsume hurt, whether it was due to humans or ayakashi. This kind and gentle natured child who repaid pain with kindness, and tears with smiles, deserved so much more than he could give.

Summary
“You’re one of us,” Kitamoto says, toasting Shibata with his own drink.
“Is this some sort of weird club I’m not aware of?” Natsume says dryly.
“Yes,” everyone else says in perfect unison, followed by Tanuma’s helpful, “Just drink your tea.”

Summary
By midnight, all the papers are in order. Bureaucracy moves quickly when you have enough money to throw at the right people. Takashi’s guardians sign him away like he’s a used car they don’t want anymore and arrange a time to drop off all of his possessions, and that’s it.
Shuuichi is no longer an only child.
“He’ll be your responsibility,” his father says on the ride home, as if he’s not talking to a teenager who shouldn’t even be responsible for himself, let alone a five-year-old.
Shuuichi nods anyway. Takashi is asleep against his side, a heavy reminder. Shuuichi will do whatever he has to. He’ll be whatever he needs to be.
He promised Takashi he would keep the monsters away, and that’s what he’s going to do.

Summary
“Oh! Where are my manners!” she turns to face Matoba “you simply must come in for some tea Mr…?”
“Matoba, Matoba Seiji… however I’m afraid I really must be going” he didn’t feel like being eaten by the child’s cat today.
“Nonsense! It’s pouring and I simply must thank you” she grabbed his wrist with surprising strength for a housewife and drags him inside. Something tells him that he would have an easier time dealing with Yokai then he would with this woman.

Summary
If only he could vanish without anyone noticing. No pain, no trouble, no worries. A world where there is no one, no humans, no youkai, nothing.
But he can’t have that. He swallows, the chill running up his spine as he imagines the Ishida family broken and devoured.
You said you wouldn’t be trouble.
Liar.
Natsume will leave a note. A short, simple one, explaining that he had to go, making sure to offer thanks for their hospitality. They will still have to look for him- he will make sure to apologize for that too- but with a note, at least they can be absolved of the guilt.
He hopes it will be enough for the Ishida’s to forgive him.
Otherwise known as the au where the Fujiwara's are a bit too late, and things spiral from there.
