Summary
Tooru has known love since he was a child. He never sought a mate because he'd already found one. His marriage was planned and wanted for as long as he could remember. He bloomed under this certainty in the way poppies bloom in the spring sun.
And just as summer rains come to rip the petals away, so do Hajime's words blot out that shining certainty.
“I humbly ask to marry your youngest, Tobio."

Summary
Kuroo grins widely. “Y’know, that you have a big, fat crush on Iwa—”
“Shut up! Shut up, I do not!” Oikawa glances frantically at the hallway to the washroom even though he can literally hear the shower running.
“I don’t think you would deny it like that if it wasn’t true,” Kenma points out helpfully. Curse the socially-anxious induced perception skills he has. Oikawa glares at him and hopes Kenma can feel the bad vibes he’s sending over.
Kuroo gasps loudly as if he just found out that his whole life is a lie. “Is that why you and dickwad broke up? Because you’re in love with Iwa—”
“In love? What the fuck is wrong with you,” Oikawa hisses. “I am not in love with Iwa-chan.” And now that he says it outloud, it feels entirely untrue. Fuck. That’s not a good sign.
or,
in which oikawa is not in love with iwaizumi aka his roommate aka his fwb aka best friend. not at all.

Summary
“Sometimes violence doesn’t give us the best outcome, and sometimes it does.”
Kuroo’s life just got infinitely better. He’s out of a job as a teaching assistant (finally), getting back together with all of his friends, and he gets to infiltrate the yakuza on a new mission, which honestly sounds more like a vacation than a job to him. Everything is going fantastic.
Until it isn’t.
Kozume Kenma is mostly to blame for that.

Summary
Clearly Iwaizumi had a checkered past. Kyoutani has never asked about it, nor has Iwaizumi ever brought it up. He knows it’s a sore spot for his mentor, just like the gorgeous Monte Carlo he keeps hidden away is, so he leaves it alone. Out on the streets, you learn a little something about when to turn a blind eye in order to survive; Kyoutani knows better than most to leave the past of men like Iwaizumi well alone.
It’s probably got something to do with the boy in the polaroids, though.
Retired pickpocket & conman Iwaizumi Hajime receives an invitation he can't possibly decline, pulling him back into his old life to work a job with his old friends and ex-lover Oikawa Tooru. His mostly-legit apprentice Kyoutani gets dragged along for the ride. It's a complete mess.Series
