muse ✨'s manga / #Free!(72)

Likens Rin to a cat that wanders freely before settling down. Sweet, very G-rated, takes place across a year. Made me all starry eyed at the end.

After an evening together, Rin leaves unexpectedly and Haru can't figure out why. But the next day, he miraculously can hear people's thoughts and the boys send Rin to Haru's house! What luck.

Rin sees Haru cry. This is gorgeous and perfectly in character.

Little Mermaid AU. True to the original, this involves death, but it's implied they are both alive as mermaids in the end.

A super happy & short Little Mermaid AU without the voice loss & with lots of Haru's sass.

Rin comes home early and surprises Haru the night before a competition. The one with a magazine spread of Rin and Haru wishing they could hold hands in public.

Haru learns enough English to tackle Australia by himself and makes Rin find him by texting photos all afternoon.

Cook!Haru and cop!Rin. The one where they haven't spoken for a few days and also there's cake?

Rin and Haru have lived together in Tokyo for four years, but when Rin is scouted for a team in Australia, Haru panics and ends their relationship. This felt very real. It has sad moments but is ultimately happy, and beautifully drawn.
