    Summary

    2009

    Boston, Mass

    Ilya is eighteen and alone, sitting in his cheap hotel room provided by his new team, the Boston Raiders.

    The room itself is beige and boring, identical to every other hotel room he’s stayed in since landing in North America. The air conditioner hums, rattling on occasion. Outside the window, traffic moves in quiet ribbons of light.

    On the desk: a workbook given by his team tutor, Shawn. Alongside it, Ilya's hand tapping a pen to the table like playing the drums, his tongue sticking out of his mouth slightly in concentration.
    Present perfect. Past continuous. Articles. Always the fucking articles.

    "What is article huh? Isn't it newspaper?"

    He stares at the sentence he’s supposed to correct.

    I have been live in Boston for three months.

    He knows it’s wrong. He doesn’t know why.

    He presses his palms flat on the desk and exhales slowly. His tutor earlier that afternoon had smiled politely while correcting him for the twentieth time. You need the “ing” ending, Ilya. Living. You are living.

    He is living. Apparently incorrectly.

    AKA: A character study of Ilya Rozanov using musicals to learn English throughout the years.

    Summary

    “They're not actually supermarket coupons, stupid! I made them myself. Open the envelope.”

    Kageyama didn’t question him, carefully untying the ribbon and opening the flap of the envelope. He looked into it dubiously and fished out a random one. "This coupon is redeemable for a makeout session,” he read out, squinting at the words. “Time: whenever you want – "

    Shouyou’s neck heated up with embarrassment. It was one thing writing it and quite another to have it be repeated back to him. Especially when Kageyama did it like that.

    *

    Hinata gifts Kageyama 17 handmade coupons for his 17th birthday. Like most things, Kageyama is very serious about redeeming them.

    Summary

    The rules are simple: whichever team has the painting by the night of the annual Gathering of Thieves, is the victor.

    The MSBY Black Jackals and the Schweiden Adlers have been at war for a whole year, staging heists to gain possession of the prize. But with only twelve days to go, the Adlers have made their final move. One everyone else seems to think is impossible to bounce back from.
    With so little time until the deadline, and his job on the line, Atsumu is getting desperate. To win, he'll have to do the unthinkable: cooperate with Sakusa Kiyoomi.
