    Summary

    In July, the wind that blows through the balcony windows is warm. It’s the kind of warm that makes one reckless, that makes you jump into things headfirst, just because it’s summer.

    Somewhere on the streets below his little apartment, Haiji hears the sound of a bicycle bell.

    What does it take to act on your feelings? For Haiji and Kakeru, it takes a single summer of 28 days.

    (A post-canon KakeHai love story about youth, change and taking chances brought to you in eight parts. This one has a happy ending. I promise.)

    For the Kazetsuyo Summer Breeze fan week.

    Summary

    Laios‘ mind has always been full of monsters, of their dark shimmering scales, their soft fur and knowing eyes, the delicious taste of their flesh, seared over a low flame or pan-fried.
    Lately, there’s also been the matter of his hands, wrapped around Chilchuck‘s waist, fingers meeting at the tips. His thumb rubbing along the shell of those big ears that flush so easily. His teeth pressed to the back of the halfling‘s neck.
    They can‘t afford to be distracted, but a taste should be enough to take the edge off.

    Where Falin is haunting the narrative, Laios takes an opportunity, and Chilchuck has no idea what he‘s getting into before it‘s too late. (And poor Marcille should not have to deal with any of this)

    Summary

    This remarkable letter of unknown provenance surfaced recently in the cuneiform collection of the University of West Wessex. Addressed to Azirapil from a Mr. “Crawly,” it appears to be begging for the other’s return to Ur from a western journey with another individual, Abiraham. The relationship between the two (brothers? business partners? friends?) is unknown.

    Summary

    “Plus,” and he smiles with all of his white teeth, “if we’d left you there much longer to cardsharp that crew, likely your night would have ended with a knife to the throat.” He reaches out as if to graze his fingers over Shane’s clavicle, then remembers himself at the last minute. His hand hovers in the air. “And what a shame it would be, to mar that throat.”

    “Do you—what do you want, Bergara?” Shane stammers out. He winces at the waver in his voice.

    “You,” he responds, his eyes sweeping up to meet him with a gaze that pierces Shane between the ribs.

    Summary

    Prince Ryan of Nueva California grew up lonely. As the first publicly out royal in the American Union, he signs up for an arranged marriage and gets matched with Shane Madej. It seems impossible that they’ll even manage to be friends at first, but with time and effort (and the Shyan Love Campaign by PR genius Steven Lim), they find themselves growing closer every day.

    Everytime I lose this and everytime I wonder why I didn't bookmark it before, and the thing is, I love this with the full force of my heart. Anyway this is the best Bokuaka, and it might be the best Haikyuu fic, for me.
