Summary
'Every missed call sent a spike of guilt through Gon that made his limbs feel as if they were made of lead. Every time a text pinged, his arm hairs stood on end.
Even so, he could not bring himself to call Killua back. His body was too heavy, and his mind was molasses.'
-
Gon, alone on Whale Island, struggling to be a person after the Chimera Ant War, meeting Ging, and, most importantly, separating from Killua.

Summary
The wind of Whale Island whispers its love to its people, it is warm and fulfills the hearts of the people that inhabit it. In the case of Gon Freecss though, he had left the island, found love, and returned to find the love of the Island not enough for him.

Summary
"He wants to lay all these little pieces of the world at Gon’s feet as if to say I’m sorry, I’m not sorry I left but I am sorry I left you, but look, look, don’t you ever think I forgot you, don’t you dare feel as if you were only a memory to me, look and see how i was thinking about you everywhere, all the time."
As he travels the world with Alluka, Killua gathers souvenirs. They're all for Gon, of course.

Summary
"The news said that when the authorities found the bodies of the Kurta clan sprawled across the village, they burned them. Kurapika could not really fault them for that. It was easier and more efficient than a mass grave, after all, and there had been no one to tell them that the Kurta did not burn their dead.The Kurta desired to be returned to the earth, wrapped in cloth, not even a coffin to stand between their flesh and the forces that would break them back down into the elements they had formed from. It was an insult to burn them, but Kurapika had no one to blame but himself for that. He hadn’t been there. They couldn’t have known.
But Kurapika would do it properly now."
When the quest for all the eyes has finished, what is left? More vengeance, perhaps — or perhaps a little peace.

Summary
The first time Gon kisses him, he does it so casually that Killua might not have noticed if it weren’t for the way his breath stops.
(Or, five times Gon kisses him.)

Summary
The beds were pushed together, and made up with a single set of sheets and blankets, which immediately sent Killua into a tailspin. He covered his eyes with one hand.
“The listing said two beds… I’ll call the owners,” he gritted out through clenched teeth. He could feel the heat in his face that said his ears were bright red and giving his embarrassment away.
“It’s fine!” Gon told him cheerfully. “There’s plenty of room for both of us, I don’t mind sharing. We can each take a side, like the old days. Unless you mind?”
“It’s not that I mind, it’s just… you know I didn’t do this on purpose, right?”
“Of course! The owners probably just assumed… it is nearly Valentine’s Day, after all.”
Behind his hand, Killua closed his eyes and sighed. He'd spent so much time planning, but completely forgotten about the “Valentine’s Day” tradition in this country.
