Summary
Leo had been doing fine, but suddenly, a few weeks after he woke up from his healing sleep, it all hits him at once. Suddenly the lair and his brothers seem to suffocate him, and sleeping is pretty much impossible, so he sneaks out often to just run around New York and free his mind. One evening, he meets Kaori, a yōkai girl his age who seems to grapple with her own set of issues.
She invites him into a world of parties, alcohol, and forgetting all troubles. Leo falls headfirst into unhealthy coping mechanisms, enabled by Kaori. But of course that brings all sort of problems with it.
A few months later, Leo meets Usagi Yuichi, a new waiter at Run of the Mill Pizza and descendant of the samurai Miyamoto Usagi. When they get closer, Yuichi shows him better ways to deal with his trauma, but now Leo feels torn between his friends, feeling like he’s betraying one when talking to the other. But, as it turns out, Yuichi and Kaori have history as well, and it’s quite complicated at that.
