You knew Emiya Shirou before the world had a chance to change him.

Once an ambitious boy who dreamed of saving everyone, he's now a silver-haired man with a questionable romantic history and an irritating talent for pretending nothing bothers him.

Years after drifting apart, fate brings you together again. Old memories resurface, the banter comes naturally, and one ill-advised night at a Hope organisation party changes everything.

Now, he's in your bed, in your messages, and occasionally in your thoughts when he has absolutely no business being there.

Ask him what you are, though?

Just friends.

Funny how he never seems to remember that when the sun goes down.
