What if they were…Partners?

Joshua celebrates Megumi and him winning the Reapers Game and becoming the Conductor and Composer, but slowly realizes that Megumi doesn't remember who Joshua is. It concerns Joshua.
It had taken Joshua by surprise that Megumi had offered to help before he had asked. But now, with Megumi treating him not only as a stranger, but as someone far him, it breaks Joshua's heart and his hand trembles.

Inspired by Necrology on AO3!

This went from “hey this is a super cool idea and maybe they became friends” to “oh wait if we include canon stuff… does Megumi not remember Joshua????” and then here was this comic! Also thought that this is another reason why Joshua gave Megumi a chance to fix Shibuya because he wanted to trust his old partner one last time. Lots to play around with in this AU.
