    Summary

    Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not. We never are. But that is not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?

     

    Kaneki Ken loves medicine.

    He loves his father's old textbooks. He loves the colorful anatomy diagrams. He loves the rhythm of scientific articles, the shape of words like 'fossa' and 'muscular dystrophy'. The research projects/work shifts/studying/crying don't leave time for Kafka, but those books were for creepy little orphans, anyway. Which he isn't anymore, because he's not a kid anymore, because soon, he'll never be that kid again.

    The world is hurt or be hurt. It is better to be hurt than to hurt others. But to be a doctor is to heal hurts without hurting yourself. To be a doctor is to be free.

    Kaneki Ken is growing up. Kaneki Ken is moving on. Kaneki Ken will become a doctor or die trying, because hope is a thing with teeth and he'd bite through his tongue before going hungry ever again. And god help anyone who gets in his way.

    aka: an au in which kaneki ken is premed instead of a lit major, with mixed but (ultimately) uplifting results
