How to Properly Raise a Jing Guang

Content warning up front: This story includes cat-like behavior and amnesia tropes~

Synopsis:

Ieiri Minato is an ordinary overworked office drone, working 24/7. Late one night, after finishing yet another round of overtime, he goes out to feed the stray cats as usual and somehow comes across a man covered in blood. On a whim, he decides to take him home.

It's an act of kindness, Ieiri Minato tells himself.

That is, until the bloodied man washes up and opens his vivid blue eyes in confusion, then warily retreats into a corner and watches him.

Ieiri Minato: I really want to keep him...

Ieiri Minato takes in a man with no identity who might be a criminal, and who has amnesia to boot. But his endless days of working around the clock finally have something to look forward to: coming home from work to a gentle househusband (?) who cooks incredibly well and softly says, "Welcome home." It's wonderful!

If only the man never got his memories back. He's just a cat, after all. Ieiri Minato can keep him for the rest of his life, he thinks darkly.

He'll have a cat who belongs to him and him alone, forever.

Morofushi Hiromitsu lost his memory after his undercover identity was exposed and he was seriously injured. He vaguely remembers being a dangerous member of a criminal organization, and being taken home by a very ordinary man who has decided to let him stay.

To repay his kindness, he'll do the housework and cook dinner for the man after he gets off work.

The man is always worried he might get lost or be taken away if he goes out, but Morofushi Hiromitsu thinks that's a kind of concern, too. Still, the small bloodstains that keep appearing on the man's clothes, the knife left conspicuously in the house, and his surprisingly fit physique for an office worker... Aren't they all a little strange?

Morofushi Hiromitsu wants to uncover the man's secrets, but along the way, he can't help developing feelings for him. Though he used to be some kind of dangerous guy, maybe in the mafia or something, he's willing to turn over a new leaf and leave that life behind for Minato.

Until one day, he runs into a certain blond with dark skin in Beika Town.

His sealed memories come rushing back. Morofushi Hiromitsu, who has spent two years as a househusband, is stunned and falls into deep self-doubt.

Furuya Rei: "Hiro, you're alive! Where have you been all these years?"

Morofushi Hiromitsu: "...Give me a minute. First of all, I have a boyfriend."

Furuya Rei: "???"

Morofushi Hiromitsu: "I may have been tricked into it... but he's probably a good person."

Furuya Rei: "!!!"

Reader's Guide:

1. This story includes cat-like behavior and amnesia.

2. Updates may be irregular. OOC warning.

3. A fix-it story, everyone survives.

4. This is the result of my kinks running wild. Catboy is probably 60% Scotland and 40% Hiromitsu.

5. This is also a crossover with Jujutsu Kaisen. I know crossovers between series with mismatched power levels, like Conan and Jujutsu Kaisen or Bungo Stray Dogs, are dealbreakers for some people. I'll try to keep things balanced, but read with caution.

6. Minato is 183 cm, Hiromitsu is 185 cm (← my weird kinks running wild)
