Summary: Ayame makes Nova something special for her birthday, but he isn’t the only one interested in sharing the fruits of his talent as a gift.
*Author’s Note*: Lol puns!! But seriously, today’s my birthday, and I know I haven’t shut up about it but…idk, I think it’s kind of important. It’s just something I want to celebrate. I really struggled with this fic, and still feel like it’s a little boring because not a lot happens, but I can’t seem to shake my habit of writing long drawn out emotional monologues orz but there are a lot of little touches I like in this, and super subtle references that will only make sense if someone keeps in mind some important Ayame/Yuki bonding moments from the manga while reading this, which I don’t expect. It’s just fun for me to know they’re there and play around with my post-canon AU and its implications a bit. I think I’m close to hammering out the details I want, but that’s not what this fic is about so I’m not going to elaborate here. I just wanted to write some cute Yuki stuff lol. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy! Oh yeah and the dress is this one that I would die for.
Examining herself in the mirror, it was almost like she’d just stepped out of a fairytale. In her daily life, she thought it felt more like she’d stepped into one, or at least that’s how things had been since she’d met them. A stranger who happened to notice the real her had quickly become a true friend, and soon after opened the door to a world unlike anything she’d ever known or envisioned. Nova was fascinated by it, but also quite intimidated, which she supposed was only natural. One after another she became acquainted with the unique group of people that Kagura called her family, a term that was applied loosely, and that was overshadowed by a different, more exclusive connection that most of the individuals she was meeting happened to share. Things were different for them now, though, and Nova thought it best to avoid asking too many unnecessary questions. Probing into the past, a past that not everyone wanted to acknowledge or remember, wasn’t really her place.
