Fics like Ikigai: Part I

The first part of this Yu Yu Hakusho based epic opens as Airi, a sweet girl with a gruesome past, breaks free from the facility she’s been held captive in for the past 6 years. Looking for help from her childhood friends, she enters on the day of Yusuke's wake, and finds herself indebted to Hiei after he saves her life. His initial distaste for her eases when he realizes she is not the weak human he expected. Airi struggles with a crush as they learn to navigate their psychic bond, and when Kurama convinces Hiei to train her for the Dark Tournament, they begin to form an emotional bond as well. She earns his trust after a traumatic event, and as he slowly drops his walls, she begins to fall in love. Even as they turn down a complicated and winding road, she never gives up, and is there for him when he needs it most. Part I wraps the day after the tournament, when the group is inevitably split up and forced to make a decision about what comes next. Pace: Moderate-Fast
