Summary
So you could imagine the surprise Tsukishima felt when he slammed his door open, only to find a teary-eyed Yamaguchi Tadashi, someone he hadn’t spoken to in so long he couldn’t remember the last time he did.
But nonetheless, Yamaguchi Tadashi was standing there.
"Can I stay here tonight?" Yamaguchi hiccupped in the smallest voice.
Tsukishima simply stepped aside to let him in. And when Yamaguchi brushed past him and he noticed he was barely holding it together, Tsukishima blocked his path and pulled him close. Yamaguchi didn’t hesitate, he buried his face in Tsukishima’s chest.
"I should’ve called, I…"
"Shut up Yamaguchi," Tsukishima whispered into his hair. Stripped of any resentment, the words stumbled out of his mouth more like a mantra, a soft but genuine attempt to remind him of who they once were.
Or, despite growing distant, Yamaguchi shows up one night at Tsukishima’s door, needing a place to stay. From that moment, Tsukishima believes that miracles do exist.Main story is now complete, but an epilogue will be added soon!

Summary
They do not say anything more to each other; Iwaizumi simply steps back, a silent invitation to enter. It is a language they used to speak in childhood, one without any words at all, and to fall back into it with ease is something that makes both hearts seize with love.
It is so easy to fall back into someone, to let the edges of your body mold to their curves and feel them take the burden of existence from your shoulders. And that, though it may be unknown to them at this moment, is exactly what they do.
They fall.
Mamihlapinatapai - A look shared by two people, each wishing the other would initiate something they both desire but which neither wants to start.

Summary
He could hear the wind rushing by his ears, slipping through the windows and stinging across his face. His hands gripped the steering wheel tightly and his heartbroken scream echoed through the interior of the car.
The last thing that flashed through his mind was Iwaizumi's face before the screeching of tires and the grinding of metal.
----
A death in Oikawa's family turns his world upside, throwing a wrench into his carefully laid plans for the future. Now tasked with looking after his family, he finds it nearly impossible to grieve on his own. Iwaizumi is there, because Iwaizumi is always there, but Oikawa feels himself pulling farther away as he tries to piece his life back together with the stubborn independence that has the potential to destroy him.

Summary
Iwaizumi would never have wished for Oikawa to come back if he'd known the cost. Now he pays the price watching the person he loves the most wither before his eyes; that bright and fervent soul straining against the bars of its cage.
All their lives Oikawa had always been asking him for ‘one more’: one more round of whatever game Oikawa was losing, one more toss, one more round of whatever they were doing in bed that Oikawa was *also* losing. His brown eyes blazed with intensity, an almost manic gleam in them like he was hardly seeing what was in front of him. His gaze was fixed elsewhere, on a victory that was just out of reach. A victory he was sure of, if only he could try one more time.
Now it's only 'one last time'.
All Iwaizumi can do is make it count.

Summary
Tooru's been told time and time again that his ambition and recklessness will one day be the end of him, but to him, these 'flaws' were the best traits he had. They got him to be captain, one of the top setters in the nation, and his team to Nationals. He didn't understand the magnitude of these flaws until he found himself in the middle of the sea.
And to make it worse, he brought the school's photographer down with him.
---
Oikawa and Iwaizumi are stranded on a desert island. Despite the stakes, they learn how to live with the consequences of their actions, and with each other.

Summary
Born the second son, the young lord Tsukishima Kei has always understood shame. His is obvious, for Kei cannot see—his world a blurred vision of everything he cannot do. At least, until his father appointed to him a new sort of retainer, a samurai whose devotion Kei can only feel unworthy of.
From the moment Yamaguchi Tadashi first drew sharpened steel he knew death was an honorable end. He never expected to be the last man standing of his clan before he even came of age. With no where left to turn and uncertain what he has left to live for—Tadashi jumps at the chance to swear his life and his blade to the service of his lord’s youngest son.

Summary
“Yeah. You too, Mei.” He hangs up, tosses the phone from one hand to the other, and stands a moment in the centre of the foyer. Suguru thinks for a moment that he’s waiting for a round of applause, or perhaps an Oscar delivered on a silver platter.
Keen to stay far away from the train wreck that is Gojo Satoru, Suguru keeps moving. His shoes squeak obnoxiously as they make contact with the polished floor, and he tries to focus on that instead. It doesn’t work, and the further he gets from Satoru, the more his brain seems to lag behind.
Momentarily, he betrays his own judgement and risks a glance over his shoulder, just as Satoru is rolling his head back, staring at the ornate plaster of the ceiling. The way he moves, even when no one is watching, is like his body obeys rules that no one taught him out loud. Suguru despises that he notices. He despises, even more, that the noticing feels like being shocked by a fully-amped fucking taser.///OR: Geto Suguru, a housekeepers son, moves into the Prime Minister’s estate. And then, his son Gojo Satoru happens.

Summary
He smiled because his face knew how.
“I’m fine.”
Far away, bruised and half-frozen on a Fire Nation ship, Zuko folded over with a sound he could not swallow.
The words appeared over his heart.
Not near it.
Over it.
I’m fine.
They burned like lightning.
Zuko pressed his palm to them and stared down, breathing hard.

Summary
Piandao sighs upon receiving the email on his phone two days after he saw Sokka, then slid a pouch with ten gold pieces inside, to Iroh's side of the table.
“Hm, what is this for, my friend?” Iroh asked, grinning as he placed a tile in an empty space that deemed his victory.
Piandao grunts, then leaned back on his chair. "How did you know they’d click?”
Iroh shrugged, taking his pieces back and setting the board up once again for another round. “Instinct is a thing you build from constantly being surrounded by college students with hopeless romanticism, my friend,” he said, as he watched Piandao placed the last tile on his setup. "So, when is their next date?"
Piandao sighs once again, and moved his tile first. "Well, I hope it's not during their midterms."

Summary
"I mean it." Sokka gestured at Zuko's shoulders. "You were not this big last time. What happened? Did you start lifting rocks? Did you start eating rocks?"
He stopped in front of Zuko and punched him in the shoulder.
The punch landed with a solid thud that would have staggered most men. Zuko did not move an inch.

There is no leak in Ba Sing Se - Spoiler-free Post-series Gaang
““It’s totally normal to think your friends are beautiful! Besides, if you could see, you wouldn’t shut up about how hot Zuko has gotten either!”
Zuko’s face flushes pink, and he tries to subtly hide his face with his hand.
“Wow, so it’s “hot” now?” Katara mutters to Aang.
“Well, you’re the only one talking about it, playboy, so even if I can’t see, I think it’s fair to say you have a massive crush on Zuko.”
Now, both Zuko and Sokka are turning red.
“Okay, maybe that’s going a little far,” Suki tried to interject, noticing the boy's obvious discomfort.
“Guys, we’re friends. There’s nothing weird about acknowledging that your friend is attractive,” Sokka says in a desperate attempt to recover.
And Zuko, sweet wonderful Zuko, in a misguided attempt to help adds, “Yeah, I think Sokka is hot too, so it’s fine.”
Toph bursts out laughing, and Katara fails to hide her chuckle. “Oh, you two have got it bad,” Toph manages to get out through her laughter.”Bookmarked by apple_lover05

Summary
Sokka is never getting out of this backwards, nowhere town.
The one thing he has to look forward to are his meetings with Zuko, the ones he has kept entirely a secret from everyone (well, except for Katara.) Other than that, life is boring, plain, simple.
That is, until Zuko shows up on Sokka's doorstep, beaten and bloody, with nowhere else to go.
Modern AU where Zuko is the son of the local southern Baptist pastor, and gets caught being romantically involved with Sokka

and every time i think about the consequence (i swear i only fell for you on accident) by ricepurity90

Summary
It takes a one-worded slip up (or more like saying the wrong name in the wrong moment because he’s somewhat of a big-mouthed idiot), combined with two months’ worth of time, for Sokka’s life to do a complete one-eighty — from right side up to upside down.
Oh, and not to mention — he’s now “engaged” to the guy (who, by the way, he swears on his life he despises) for the next two months due to this screw up of his, so that’s just the cherry on top of it all.
