Why this must be read: Because Tsuzuki's physical presence is a different thing from his ghost. A sequel to the previously recommended In Your Arms, This Lonely Place, All Is You and Here closes the distance between Tsuzuki, Hisoka and Tatsumi in a natural and ultimately passionate manner. The deceptive distance of Tatsumi's POV is belied by the immediacy of the present tense narration and the rawness of his understated emotions, and the tricky steps of a threesome are well-navigated via name and gesture to achieve a gentle balance.

It has been a month since Hisoka last came to him. He wakes and lies staring at the shadows shifting on the walls of his bedroom, waiting. He falls back to sleep without ever feeling the urge to rise and go to the kitchen. He drinks tea in his dreams, tastes it on another mouth, but he cannot say whose when he wakes again.

Tsuzuki watches him, and he watches back, uncertain anymore of what is expected. He tries not to think Hisoka has abandoned him. They had no formal agreement. They had no agreement at all, and every time Hisoka came to him, he expected it to be the last. Except now he realizes he expected nothing of the kind, and despite himself the shadows in the JuOhCho division have taken to rippling in Hisoka's vicinity.

He thinks it is just as well Tsuzuki knows, or there surely would have been difficult questions.
