Summary
“I bet this cost an arm and a leg.”
“Yeah, it did.” Kenma sighs wistfully, and a cocky smile plays at the edges of his lips like he’s proud of the fact that he's shelling out so that Kuroo looks paid for. It makes Kuroo want to give him whatever he wants whenever he wants it. The moon? Deal. The crown jewels? Absolutely. Kuroo’s still beating and bloody heart in the palm of his hand? Done.
“And you don’t mind? Spending this kind of money on me?”
“I just like getting you nice things,” Kenma replies, his voice is quiet, almost like he’s talking to himself, “Is that so bad?”

Summary
“People’ve got all different reasons for pairin’ up, but usually enjoyin’ it at least is one of ‘em, ya know?”
The corner of Sakusa’s mouth curves into a dry smile. He’s awfully pretty, Atsumu thinks, not for the first time. His build isn’t typical for an omega, but there’s a hint of it in the smooth skin of his face, the delicate taper of his chin. “I didn’t say I was incapable of enjoying it.”
Atsumu meets Sakusa through an arrangement to help him with his heats.

Summary
A click of tongue, snap of teeth, and Miya turns on a heel. No doubt back to his team, about to commiserate over Itachiyama's hyper-mobile ace being a lone wolf. Dud alpha. Creature strange and asocial; a freak not even nature would claim as her own. No love nor care for his fellow people—only loving to play keep-away from them.
Kiyoomi keeps peering watch over the crowd, the fluid dynamics of the throng, and thinks: Who would want to be part of that?
It wasn't the first time he asked the world why. It isn't the world's business to give him a good answer, either—only to keep on its relentless turn instead.
The one where Kiyoomi and Atsumu went from rivals, to roommates, to some other things entirely.- Language:

Summary
And here he is—here they are, looking at each other as though they’re the only ones in the room. Atsumu blames the flick of fear licking him up on the idea of potentially missing out on a hot European swimmer and definitely not on the obsessive thought that Atsumu might end up taking Sakusa home instead if neither of them are going to break this off.
Sakusa leans in closer. Atsumu’s fingers curl tightly around the bartop counter.
Oh, god. What the fuck is happening?
“Are we about to kiss right now?” Atsumu blurts out with a bout of incredulous laughter before he can even stop himself.

Summary
“Listeners, there is a newcomer in town, and let me be the first to tell ya, he is the love of my life.”
It could be about anyone. Kiyoomi is not so vain as to think that it has to be about him. He doesn't even recognize the voice on the radio, so clearly it's not about him.
Except that this town is so small that everyone knows everyone and their whole backstories.
“This man is tall, dark, and handsome personified,” the voice goes on, “And no one knows what he’s here for! I dunno about you all, but I love a good mystery. And he’s got these cute moles? What are those about?”When Sakusa Kiyoomi leaves Tokyo, he doesn't expect to become the object of the local radio host in his new town's affections. Nor does he expect the impact said radio host will have on him and his heart.

Summary
“Do you want help?”
It’s a good thing Atsumu is already sitting down, because if he wasn’t he probably would’ve crumbled at the shock. “What?”
He can see Sakusa resisting the impulse to roll his eyes. “You’re in pain, and you seem to be struggling to sort it out yourself. The team needs you at your best. Do. You. Want. Help?”

Summary
“Y’mean I’m lucky the volleyball association’s still sexist as hell,” Atsumu snorted, trying very hard not to think of what Kita was going to say regardless. “’Oh, that Atsumu and his silly omega hormones getting in the way again.’ I could throw an alpha off a roof and they’d just titter about me being feisty.”
“I dunno, I think throwin’ Sakusa off a roof will still get you arrested for murder,” Osamu said dryly. “So don’t do that.”
Atsumu and Osamu have always been identical, until they're not. It's all Sakusa Kiyoomi's fault.

Summary
“Daddy says I’m selfish. Do you think I’m selfish, baby?”
Kenma shook his head faster than he ever had before, wide eyes glued to his brand new console.
“That’s good,” his mother sighed, brushing aside his hair and kissing him on the forehead. She then leaned in close to whisper to him, “Everything’s okay now. Daddy made me leave for longer than usual this time, but I promise I’m not letting him separate us anymore.”
Kenma grew up quietly, with conditions attached to his love and worth, and quickly had to adapt to life with a pathological narcissist for a mother.
