Summary
“Are you jerking off in there?” Santos calls from the living room. “No judgement if you are - explore your budding body all you like, bud, but could you keep it down? Mommy’s trying to watch her shows.”
“No,” Dennis calls back sulkily, lowering his hands from his face, scowling at his bed. Nothing wrong with the bed - just what is laid out on top of it.
‘What’ being his very limited, definitely not date-friendly wardrobe.
OR:
Dennis and Michael go on a proper date. Dennis struggles with family, his past and medical records. Michael struggles to understand and with a connection of his own.
And Santos just struggles.Series

Summary
The disparity in their appearances is greater than that between Hoffman and Carl, but Redford seems determined to portray Bob accurately on screen anyway. He’s as dogged about it as any reporter, and Bob would have started to feel a little harried by now if Redford’s rapt attention didn’t warm his chest and cheeks like sunlight.

Summary
“How’d you like it?”
Kiyoomi pauses to contemplate the question.
“You played well,” he says, finally. It would’ve been prudent to keep Miya’s ego from inflating, but from what Kiyoomi saw, it was the truth. “You’re no less of a spectacle than you were in high school.”
A half beat of silence passes; then, Miya barks a laugh.
“You should play for us after you graduate. Guarantee I’ll give you the best sets of your life.” His eyes narrow into fox-like slits. “That is, if you’re still up to snuff.”
--
a journey through sakusa kiyoomi's professional career and relationship with one miya atsumu.

Summary
Logically, Henry should have known to expect this. He’s aware of how lacrosse works. Or, at least, he’s developed enough of an understanding of how lacrosse works through Alex. He’s seen photos of Alex in his lacrosse uniform before, and yet somehow that still doesn’t prepare him for the sight of seeing Alex actually playing lacrosse.
---
Alex returns to his high school to play a charity lacrosse match. Henry joins him and sees Alex play lacrosse for the first time.

i.e. Henry ties Alex up in silk rope, and Alex is dying.

Summary
"When's your birthday?"
Henry frowned. Alex didn't know anyone who frowned when talking about their birthday. "Next Friday."
Alex quickly did the math in his head, then gasped. "Mine's two weeks after that!"
That year, they celebrated their birthdays together. Henry still didn't know many people at school, so Alex made sure to invite the whole class. They shared cake and shyly handed each other presents and made stupid drawings on the paper tablecloth. Alex only knew his new friend for a handful of weeks, but this was already the best birthday he'd ever had.

In which Alex and Henry celebrate their birthdays together over the years.

Summary
Sebastian felt as if his heart were going to burst out of his throat. He tried to breath, inhaling one shaky breath through his mouth, then out his nose. His breath just seemed to solidify and refuse to budge, thickening in his esophagus with increasing anxiety.
Now or never, Sebastian.

Summary
There were no easy how-to guides on the internet for how to go out for drinks with your ex when you hadn’t seen each other in more than a decade. When you hadn’t had a real conversation in even longer than that. When you’d broken up and you’d moved to Russia and only saw each other long enough to practice with the national team in the summers and for the Olympics, and even that was 12 years ago.
Kiyoomi never thought he'd get a chance to try again.

Summary
Sakusa’s eyes are very dark naturally, sucking in all surrounding rays of light and crushing them in his pupils. For an athlete, he is rather pale. His lips look very pink in comparison. Atsumu is suddenly catastrophically aware that in this instance, ‘accent’ is a euphemism. “Good enough for your Olympic-size ego, Miya?”
(In which Atsumu realizes that he is attracted to Sakusa Kiyoomi in the most inconvenient way possible.)
Now with gorgeous gorgeous art by Quip/pseudoanalytics!

Summary
In his thirty years of life, Miya Atsumu has experienced his fair share. However, if someone told him that one day he'd be unfortunate enough to move into the apartment next door to his ex-teammate and also just ex, Sakusa Kiyoomi, he would probably laugh. After all, that's almost comical. Even he doesn't have that much karma coming for him.
As always, he is wrong.

Summary
"Sakusa Kiyoomi has good taste in men. This has always been a point of pride for him. He gravitates towards those who are smart, kind, and serious. His track record of previous partners, no matter how short, reflects this. This statement is true as long as you don’t count the brief and ill-advised crush he held for Miya Atsumu in high school. Which Sakusa definitely dosn't count by the way."
Sakusa joins the black Jackals after college and well.... maybe his taste in men isn't as great as he once thought.

Summary
"Ooooh, Akaashi's got a date," Bokuto doesn't really hear the words at first. In fact, he processes them with such shallow intent that he almost laughs at the idea - Akaashi never has dates. Never has plans. He spends all his time with Bokuto.
So the spiker resumes on his merry way, planning out the strawberry smoothie he's going to make when he gets home, blissfully unaware of the words perched on his best friend's tongue, soon to spill off and ruin his entire night.
"Please don't make a big deal out of this," is what Akaashi says next, real heart-stopping words that have Bokuto freezing where he stands, half-naked with his head buried in his locker. "It's just a date."
