Fics like Anything To Make You Stay

Shibuya swirls around him, unravelled threads twisting, digging into his skin. He is lost in the staves of Music threading to become a part of his own. Awareness blossoms like bruises, the city cramming into his body, flowing through his veins. Time has no meaning when entrenched in the heart of a district. Everything and nothing, all at once, and the true understanding of it is still a step out of reach, even to a Composer. Words echo back to him, a careful reminder, “Do͓̙͇n̹̭̭͔̩͟’̰̹͖ͅt̲ ̬̰̗͔͙l̢͚͙e̙̠̱̟ț̯͔̤̺ ̺̰y̢̪̱̩̺o͓̬͎̮͓͇̗u͓͔͍̮̝̣̼rs̳͕͙̝̯̺e͈ļ͚̗͚̼f̬̠ ̬̣g͇̲̯͍e̶͕̜̼̤̭t̛̺̰ ̢͎̭̼͙̗̘l̨̥̤͚̞͕o̞̝̱̻s̘̻̮t̺̳̺.͙̦̣̼͔͔” Joshua and Neku have been best friends since they were 11, but their friendship starts to fall apart after Joshua goes missing for a week, soon after his 14th birthday. A foggy, static week, with inky memories dripping away from Neku's brain. Lies corrode the bond, and Neku’s vivid nightmares of finding "s͡o͘m̧͞҉e͡҉̧ơn͏̛e͞’s̶͟ dead body does not help. A year and a half later, they hit the boiling point. In which Joshua becomes a Reaper before becoming Composer, and never loses his Entry Fee.
