    Summary

    It’s Tokyo 2021, backdrop for the XXXII Summer Olympiad Games. Oikawa Tooru returns to Japan after a triumphant, eight-year long run as pro setter in Argentina’s professional volleyball League. And it's been just as long since Hajime watched him disappear across the oceans, maybe never to return.

    On reuniting with your best friend, standing atop the world stage, and trying to catch wisps of a golden boy. An Olympic tale, one lifetime in the making.

    Hajime blinks, then looks around him. The living room is packed. All of a sudden, he’s surrounded by strangers, holding the flag of a country they’ve got no ties to. People he doesn’t know and people who don’t know him. People who don’t even know whose apartment they’re in, but who’ve edged themselves into the first available space to watch the match, to cheer for the team that’s painted like the blue skies, for the Japanese boy in their midst who’s exceptionally pretty and so, so talented.

    Emotion wells up in Hajime’s chest, fills him up to the brim. Stabs his eyes. God, god. He wishes Oikawa were here right now. Look at this, he wants to tell him. Look how many people have fallen for you.

    Summary

    It's been a while since Isashiki Jun has seen his old best friend and longtime crush — three years, almost. But a chance meeting brings Yuuki Tetsuya back into his life and his old feelings into focus again. But are these Saturdays close enough together to rekindle their friendship but far enough apart to give Jun a chance to leave a different kind of love behind him?

    Does he even want to?

    When they pull away, they talk about baseball because Jun doesn’t have to struggle to respond. He still doesn’t have a real reply for why he doesn’t call Tetsu anymore, because the truth would probably stop their little reunion dead in its tracks. ‘I wanted to forget about you’ isn’t the kind of reception Jun wants to unload onto someone who he truly does miss.

    “Hey,” Miyuki says, voice suddenly soft. “What’s going to happen to us?” Kuramochi’s head whips over to stare at him.

    “We’re going to win this damn thing!” Kuramochi insists, determined to pull through.

    “And then?”

    “We’ll go home,” Kuramochi says, like it’s the most obvious thing in the world.

    “And then?”

    “We’ll be home.”

    Summary

    Two very different boys join the Pan Pacific Defense Force Academy, intent on becoming Rangers. By some miracle, one can drift with anybody, but the other can't seem to find a partner.

    Years later, difficult circumstances force the two together and it's up to them to get over their bickering long enough to keep the kaiju at bay.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Kazuya took a deep breath, one that someone only took before they were about to do something they would regret. Youichi’s eyes flicked upwards and suddenly, a flood of affection surged through his body. He no longer felt hollow or empty because Kazuya was back in his head, thrumming through his veins like liquid fire; all he could feel was warmth and comfort and though their distance hadn’t changed, he felt so much closer.

    Summary

    It’s three in the morning and he has better things to do (like his math homework) than stay up contemplating things he’d never once expected to face while growing up. Puberty? No cinch. First crush? A little rough, but manageable. Being named captain of the team? Okay, kind of a pain, but admittedly worthwhile.

    Potentially discovering time travel at the age of eighteen?

    There is a grim look on Miyuki’s face and he is suddenly nostalgic for the stressful kindergarten days following his dramatic sandbox break-up with his first ever girlfriend.

    “Wherever you’re going—” (However many years from now.)

    “…Hey.” Kuramochi’s expression sobers into something steeled.

    “I don’t mean to be selfish, but—” (However many worlds away.)

    “Oi, Miyuki—”

    “Youichi.”

    The laugh that slips past his lips is shakier than intended, and a part of Miyuki hates himself for it. He doesn’t want to look back and regret this moment. He doesn’t want to look back and think: I could have done it better.

    “… Kazuya?”

    Miyuki smiles. He forces it. “Will you wait for me?”

    There are no seconds lost as Kuramochi scowls, using his free hand to steady himself as he leans forward, no hesitation this time as he presses his lips to Miyuki’s. And Miyuki thinks this is harder than it’s supposed to be.

    When Kuramochi pulls away, he does so with a promise.

    “Don’t doubt me.”

    Summary

    Miyuki almost ends up playing pro baseball. He thinks he's going to make it, thinks scouts have seen enough of his games, goes as far as betting all of his chances on that future without applying to any universities as a backup. When he doesn't make it, he needs to come up with something else to do with his gap year. When one of his teachers gives him a pamphlet on a work-study program that will place him on a farm with a host family to learn about the trade, he thinks, why not? Going away to Hokkaido to pick azuki beans will be a grand new adventure. While it turns out farming is a lot harder work than he's counting on, it also introduces him to Furuya Satoru, his host family's son and a fascinating nut to try and crack.

    On the worst day of Arakita’s life, the first Kaiju appears in San Francisco.
    He’s on his knees screaming in synchrony with an entire country across the ocean. He watches the Kaiju’s destructive week-long march from a hospital bed, too high on painkillers and poisoned with self-pity to do much else.

    He starts and trails off again, not sure where to take the sentiment thats forming at his lips and he grinds his teeth in a futile attempt not to speak anymore.

    Dystopian AU.

    Survival is only meant for those people who know how to adapt. Kageyama Tobio wasn't one of them.

    Sanity. Sacrifice. Closure. Identity. Four rules that kept him sane until the very end. Sadly, he couldn't follow the fifth and most important rule - feelings are forbidden.

    Summary

    Sometimes, in still moments, Iwaizumi wonders why out of all the people on earth he ended up with Oikawa Tooru. Why it’s his face that lingers on his fading conscious in the last moments before he falls asleep, in the first blurry seconds upon waking up again. Why when he looks to his side, he expects Oikawa to be there in the same way he expects to see five fingers on both hands, a natural extension of himself, ever present.

    Why he can’t imagine a future without Oikawa in it.

    It begins with a bet made between the two boys in the mid-summer of their eighth year. It starts with volleyball, but like with most things involving Oikawa Tooru and Iwaizumi Hajime, things are never quite that simple.
