Title: Turn
Character: Doumeki
Rating: G
Notes: Drabble. 100 words. Spoilers through chapter 159. Originally posted on IJ for oneangrykate's birthday.

Turn

His grandfather taught him ritual, but more importantly, when ritual should be abandoned. Not that Doumeki has renounced his faith, but he can't deny it has lost significance in his life, rendered trivial in a single afternoon by one lonely boy at the river's edge, profile blurred by the rain like an imprint in soft velveteen.

He spends his nights waiting, senses at attention, trading mindfulness for readiness, and if he enjoys how alive it makes him feel, he's not ashamed to admit it. He closes his hand around the egg Yuuko gave him, willing its strength into his heart.

Sunbeam

They're playing in his bedroom, which is weird enough. Hikaru hasn't played here much with anyone since Sai, and the single beam of sun creeping onto the goban feels eerily like someone looking in. Judging? Seeking? Searching still for the Hand of God?

Touya's fingers reach into the sunbeam, the white stone between them glowing in the light like it's the first ever stone on the first ever goban, and for a moment Hikaru almost believes it is.

"Shindou?" Touya asks, and Hikaru laughs, suddenly giddy.

"Sorry," he says. "Sun in my eyes." His fingertips brush sunlight, and he smiles.
