also on ao3. rewatching arc-v has been very inspiring. i love shingo and i love putting him through the wringer in ways that are sexy to me. shun is the show's designated whump boy. shungo suffering was inevitable.

beta read by thoudostsmile (fandom-blind). thank you so, so much.

title: tribute
rating: NC-17/explicit
pairings: sawatari shingo/kurosaki shun, akaba reiji/sawatari shingo
word count: ~5900
warnings: extremely dubious consent, forced exhibitionism+voyeurism
preview: Sawatari had heard those words before, often before one of his rewards. The thought made him queasy. He'd never turn down Akaba's seals of approval, the bruises strung across his shoulder blades, but now? Why was everyone else here?

[set during episodes 52 and 53. before the lancers can go to synchro, akaba reiji has a test of loyalty for shingo and shun.]

fake-cut to my writing comm: ( The crowd streamed out of the stadium confused but determined. )
