Summary
Tenna was on the decline.
If he wanted to keep his name in lights, he would be forced to get a little help from an up and coming big name in Cyber City. While not particularly impressed by their first meeting, Tenna knows that this “Spamton” fella was his best chance of getting with the times or risk being left behind.
All he needed was a little guidance and all of that little mailman’s secrets to success. He would bring him in, give him a little sweet talk, stroke his ego, and get the guy to sing like a canary.
He’d been in this business a long time, while Spamton was just getting started.
This would be too easy, he thought.
But soon, he would realize that Spamton was a more worthy rival than he’d first suspected, looking to take just as much from him and more. The question was: who would win?
Who could play the long game,
And make it out to the other side in one piece?

Summary
You thought about what Karkat had said to you, once, not too long ago—his warm hand cradling your cheek, his red and golden eyes holding your gaze so steadily, like he knew what he was talking about.
You’re going to be all right, Dave.
You had chosen to believe him, then.

Summary
Time’s a funny thing. For all of it’s idiosyncrasies there’s always one thing that’s constant—it passes. It always does, sometimes in rushed, lurching pulls and swift crashes, but lately it’s been slow sunlit afternoons in lazy glades outside of the house he shares with Karkat.
Dave’s experience in Earth C has been… unexpected. It’s difficult to adjust from years spent in the game to this. Some things stay the same. Karkat helps him through it. They both lean on each other in unexpected ways. This world is alien for both of them, a cluttered, messy mash-up of Earth, Alternia, and bits of Skaia itself. Such a patchwork amalgamation should be ugly by design.
It’s not.

Summary
Being forced to relive memories, facing an antagonist beyond comprehension, and almost dying were pretty par for the course in Lucas's universe. Meeting new people was as well, but there was something about being unwillingly dragged into a battle nobody knew existed that brought even people from different universes together.

Summary
There, nestled in the mirror of the lake, is a ship, the likes of which Shouyou has never seen outside of story books. Its large bronze body rests gracefully in the water—Shouyou knows not to be fooled and that it is ready to pounce at a moment’s notice. There’s a glow still emitting from the engines and it lights up the lake as a fire would. The glimmering sails tower high and there, at the very top, where they are piercing the heavens they descended from, stands a splash of crimson red with a horrible black sigil carved into it.
It’s not just any ship—this is a star chaser, a pirate vessel.
And suddenly, Hinata Shouyou's small life explodes into every corner of the galaxy.

Summary
Tobio runs by himself every day. Even though he can't shake off that awful feeling that something's closing in on him, he still does it. It's habit now.
When he gets a phone call that Hinata Shouyou is thinking of coming to Italy, Tobio feels like he has to run even faster.
(Or: Tobio has a month to prepare himself before his high school rival comes to visit him. They haven't spoken to each other for two years, and Tobio can't even remember what food Hinata likes. He's got a lot to think about.)

Summary
"The smallest feline is a masterpiece" - Leonardo da Vinci
Despite a less than ideal high school volleyball career as a back bencher and failing his first year at university, Hinata Shouyou is still chasing his goal to play professional volleyball. But moving away to a hilly town for his dreams is more lonely than he expects - until the middle of a very rainy spring, when a black, blue-eyed cat shows up at his door.
(A magical realism AU; Hinata and Kageyama did not meet in middle school, and never went to Karasuno together, their paths separate until one day Kageyama wakes up with more legs and fur than he had the day before.)

Summary
“No,” Tobio snarls. “It was Miwa, so we have to…”
He trails off as it occurs to him that he has no plan. His big sister is downstairs, having just caught him rather obviously doing something with someone, because he didn’t hide the evidence well enough in his panic, and the culprit is still in his room. Tobio starts wondering wildly whether it’s feasible that if he and Hinata just shut the door and stay put, they can literally ignore the problem until she goes away.
“Miwa?” Hinata pipes up, derailing Tobio’s runaway train of thought by looking absolutely delighted, for some inane reason. “Can I say hi?”
-
In which Hinata discovers and finally gets to meet Miwa, and Kageyama gets a chance to re-connect.
