He liked the boy

.

.

He liked the boy. Souji pondered the reasons:

.

.

Tetsu-kun was fun to be around, funnier to tease.

A bit clumsy but hard-working regardless.

With a light about him despite his tragic past.

And all that will to learn if only slightly tainted by revenge. But maybe that could be corrected.

.

.

Hijikata-san was working on it. Souji smirked. Not the way he would have, but working it nonetheless.

.

.

Sure the boy was taking his place:

.

.

As the young genius with the sword;

As the cute one within the Shinsengumi;

And in Hijikata-san's heart and, soon, in his bed, no doubt about it in Souji's mind.

.

.

But still he liked the boy, Souji forced himself to believe.
