Theme: #15: Law of Gravity
Character/Pairing: Tsukimori Len/Hino Kahoko

He is nothing without her.

Really, without her he is nothing. This knowledge is like a deep throbbing in his mind, a malignant tumor—or perhaps more subtle, a form of arrhythmia, the fluttered and off-kilter beatings of his heart. Four chambers dependent upon a solitary thing, breathing equals oxygen equals existence, please god.

This is nothing but a bizarre, desperate imagining, and she wonders if she is at all essential to him—this man who is her whole world, who allows her into that precious limited space around him. Herself, a timid and frightened moon floating uncertainly around him, and she wonders if she is, if she could be, or whether he would let her be, the greater, essential gravitational force.
