Warm up Drabbles

by Youkaineko

Just a collection of warm-up drabbles for Osomatsu-san that I thought were decent enough to publish, but didn't wanna put them all up separately. Most introspective stuff or short plotless stories. No Matsucest/BLmatsu/whatever. I'll update any warnings if they apply.

3. Karamatsu Just Really Likes the Sky

Prompt: Sky

Fandom: Osomatsu-San

Character: Karamatsu

After dinner, Karamatsu frequently took to the roof, claims of the sky calling his name, beckoning a song of love and farewell to the setting sun. A song of welcome to the stars and moon. Sometimes Jyushimatsu would join him, but more often than not he would take his guitar and sit by himself for hours, occasionally forgoing the bath house to appreciate all the evening sky had to offer.

Or so he claimed.

Osomatsu noticed the nights when no music was heard, despite the guitar missing from its corner. Choromatsu would notice when there was only music, no painful lyrics to cover sad chords. Ichimatsu pretended to not notice when the lyrics turned a little too serious, or the voice singing would crack and the music suddenly stopped. Even Todomatsu, as unobservant as he was, noticed when the guitar never even made to the rooftop with its owner.

And Jyushimatsu, he noticed all of it. It was just...hard. To be there for Karamatsu when he was hurting. He was so...proud. So much wanted to be reliable and the Big Brother for the rest of them (even for Osomatsu when he'd let him). So Jyushimatsu did his best to let his big brother have his space when he needed it, but to also let him know that he was always up for a duet whenever Karamatsu was. Even if there was no music involved.
