Title: Untangle.
Series: Sukisyo
Character/Pairing: Matsuri gen
A/N: Matsuri means "festival" but when written in katakana can mean 'tangle'
Every morning Matsuri brushes his hair, carefully untangling and freeing the strands of hairs curled into knots from all the tossing and turning of sleep (He always has been a restless sleeper. Most find this surprising, but he just laughs it off).
He never intended to grow it long, only to his shoulders, maybe. He just wanted to see what it felt like to have hair long enough to blow in the wind and to braid, hanging down in two pigtails. His mother always mentioned she wanted a girl who she could dress up and French braid her hair – Matsuri gave her the next best thing, the only thing he could.
It comes down to his knees now, gold like fall goldenrod and smooth like summer cornsilk. Half the student council has nicknamed him "Rapunzel"
It's the little things that sneak up on you when you're not looking, he thinks wryly.
