They make it bearable, make it painful. Gratitude blooms and stings, not after fights but in quiet moments: when he's reading or is sitting in Jeep listening to their voices rising and falling in tones of friendship.
It crushes the hate, and he does hate them: Goku for demanding love, hates more because Sanzo gives it; Hakkai for the well of patience and kindliness that lies under his polite smile; Gojyo for being prepared to die for him however much he tries to hide it.
They are his home yet he cannot tell them so, or ever forgive them.
