Rating: G
Fandom: Saiyuki
Characters: Sanzo, Goku
Summary: not-quite-drabble. Sanzo watches the rain and Goku watches Sanzo. (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dystopiarcadia was throwing me random prompts on one of the many trains we've taken together recently and this one came out better than most of them.)
It rains and rains and rains. Sanzo chain-smokes his way through his Marlboros with grim determination, staring out of the window and looking as though he's watching the end of the world. When he runs out he moves far enough to check that Gojyo is asleep and swipe his packet of cigarettes from the table by his bed - not that he'd refrain if Gojyo was awake, but there'd be more of a fuss. (Across the room Hakkai shifts a bit, but says nothing, leaving Sanzo... alone, if not in peace.)
Goku watches from his bed, cocooned in blankets and with his eyes half-closed, pretending to sleep. He remembers being caged - really caged, or only thinking he was - and how Sanzo has set him free; and he thinks that Sanzo needs someone to do the same for him. He wishes he knew how. For now he can only keep watch until the rain ends and Sanzo can finally sleep.
