Helloo!! This is question is quite useless and isn’t even relevant to the plot, but I am that type of person that loves small details or any small info about things I like. So I’ve been wondering, how old is Chishiya and Niragi in the firelight series?)
Heyo! Sorry for the late answer I'm abroad atm, but thanks for asking! The age thing is something I struggled with a little while writing the fic, honestly. I'm still not 100% how old they're supposed to be in canon, though I get the general vibe that Niragi might be a couple years older than Chishiya?
While I was planning NOUWGP, though, I decided to say Chishiya was a surgeon already. Though I have no idea how Japanese med school works I suppose that'd put him in his mid to late twenties, and I kind of liked the idea that he'd have a couple years on Niragi. So at some point (chapter 2?) I think I said Niragi's bullies were 24-25 by now, which would put Niragi in that age bracket too. That way he'd have time to graduate uni at ~21, hold down a (shitty) job for 1-2 years and then get dragged into Fukushi's scheme once he got bored. Niragi's so impulsive that I figured he wouldn't be all that old yet.
Though in hindsight I kind of regretted that decision because I read other fics and started to subscribe to "Niragi is a couple years older than Chishiya" propaganda (which does work with the way they're drawn in the manga?) so basically a lot of words to say that I'm not sure which one I prefer 😅 do you have a preference?
Thanks for asking!
#look both options do something to the power dynamic even tho i dont think jts a massive age gap either way#niragi calling Chishiya rich boy all the time js also a lot funnier if Chishiya is a bit older than he is#i am also infamously bad a just forgetting to drop crucial character info lmao Val didnt have a last name until the last LWH chapter whoops

DESCENT TO THE VALLEY / AN ELEGY: LATE SUMMER'S BLEEDING OUT, ryn selene
tips / subscribe
[full text below the cut]
an elegy dedicated to death in the summertime.
july ended kneeling by the bedside wondering if i was praying right. it was the season when sunbleached memories plagued:
down by the creek, signs of god. saltwater fingers trapped in a sharkbite snarl. crane your neck. i’ll demonstrate. creation myth, horror flick. the killer’s weak to the impulse. matching scars: his collarbone, my hip. aching jaws and unzipped jeans in the backyard. stumbling through boyhood, eternal collapsing omen. all the lies my sister never told me.slow rain turned flashflood. sunburnt hands, feverish dreams. drowning in misguided love. violence cycling over. stop pulling your punches. this is our way to heaven. life grew wider, / inevitable, / in the wrong place.
unfinished summers stretch into days spent waiting for a sign. stained letters deemed holy text. frenzied whispers echoing along empty backroads and highways. the still silence of our truck. passenger side chainsmoking wishing time would erase.
final destination: the desert. my own private holy land.
i search for my god. / i find him at a grave. / he recites psalm 139:7. / outgrown resentment, has he scratched that itch yet? / this eden of mine robs me of love and devotion. / am i in the right place? / i miss the silence. / i miss a god who would listen. / this isn’t the heaven i wanted, i believe it does not want me either. / this desert is vast. / take me out of eden, i miss my god. / the only thing worth saving is death. / what if i’m the apple instead?
was it worth it?

The angel being so small and fragile the stain remover the just another Tuesday of it all despite it feeling like a tragedy like. When you find a wing from a long dead pigeon on the sidewalk kind of tragedy. I'm feeling feelings about this
