Warnings: Spoilers for the entire game, though much less than the three previous ones. Also, the pairing, but this is springkink, so...
Prompt: Tales of Hearts, Hisui/Kohak/Shing: sharing -it made perfect sense, especially with his sister complex.
Word count: 711
Summary: Living with the two of them was easy, maybe even too easy
A/N: My canon beta is unreachable right now, so if there are any canon mistakes, they are my own
If but a few months before you'd suggested the idea to him, he would have laughed at the concept.
Probably made you pay for even considering the people involved, too.
And yet, as alien and unreasonable Hisui still found it, it had become natural, spontaneous.
Artificeless.
It had been Shing's idea, of course. It was always Shing's idea.
And somehow when he smiled the rules stopped to apply.
And now they were sharing. Everything, each other, life and love, and it would have been ridiculous except as usual Shing took it to the next dimension.
For Shing, sharing never meant second best. Where in any other situation he would have expected their number to divide, here it multiplied them, as if his love rose exponentially the more they were.
Rather than cut in two he found that they were cubed.
It was irrational, and that's what made it click. In the face of such out of proportion-ness, details didn't seem to matter as much. Definitions seemed to fade. In that maelstrom, he and Kohak didn't have to wonder exactly what they were anymore. They just were, and what they had, what they felt could be cherished, categories abolished. He loved them, and they loved each other and him, and the nature of that love was irrelevant, as long as it was there.
They'd slipped into it, slightly too dazed to really question, at least aloud. And against all predictions it had worked.
Life with the two of them was easy, maybe a bit too easy. After the months on the road and constant danger, domesticity felt strange, and time flew by too fast. By the time he'd really grown accustomed to the idea, weeks had disappeared, his mind too taken up by new ideas, and his heart by warmth. It made him feel a bit paranoid, thinking he was missing things, but when he thought about it, there was nowhere else he would rather be. Kohak was enjoying herself, taking her role as mistress of the house with pride -and a little too much bullying in Hisui's opinion- and Shing was too happy to follow, literally running around like a happy puppy, excited that people he loved were sharing his space.
Being by the sea meant thay always had a nice supply of squid, and Hisui was grateful for that. Out of the three of them, Kohak was probably the one whose stomach had the strongest power.
The people of Seable generally let them be. Part of it was the general headshake and acceptance that came with the explanation that Shing was Shing. The half who did more than suspect, Hisui thought, were conscious of one aspect of their relationship he would rather forget: without them Shing would have been dead. He wasn't really surprised that for a number of people, having avoided this was ground enough for tolerance.
The remains of their group seemed to know before they were even told. The only one surprised had been Chalcedony, and Hisui had to stop him before he tried explaining to Shing that this was, in general, a bad idea -or badly seen by the church, for that matter. This happiness was too fresh, the tears in Shing's voice still not totally dry, and he would be damned if it was darkened before Shing had time to settle into it and regain his complete confidence.
Besides, Hisui owed no obedience to the church. He was a heretic, after all, and considering what he suspected from their own parents, he doubted his mother would have disapproved. Even Richea had subtly hinted at it, shortly before they had separated. It had surprised him at the time, even annoyed him, because he had had other things on his mind, like the prospect of losing friends he cared for more than he would admit, but now he thought she had been right. Mourning was normal, but at one point you had to pick up the pieces.
Innes, in her usual infuriating fashion, had given him a knowing smirk, while Beryl had pretended not to notice anything until she suddenly dropped the bomb.
"Aah, well, it was predictable. Especially considering your siscon~ "
Kohak had blushed, Shing laughed, and Hisui felt like yet another headache was coming.
