Summary
Shuugo hesitates for a moment. "Have ya heard about the divorce?"
There's no judgment or pity in Osamu's eyes, only a quiet understanding that somehow feels more significant than any platitude could be.
"I heard from 'Tsumu. Are ya doing okay?"
"Part of me is relieved to no longer be living a lie," Shuugo admits, the words coming out in a rush, as if a dam has finally broken. "The other part is just... empty. Drifting without a map."
Osamu watches him, a thoughtful expression on his face. He leans against the counter, arms crossed.
"Maybe drifting is exactly what ya need right now," he says gently. "Sometimes ya have to get lost before ya can figure out where ya're supposed to go."
"The problem is that I know exactly where I want to go," Shuugo says, his gaze direct, unflinching. "But I'm not sure if that's a place I'm welcome."
(Or, of all days to meet the love of his life, it had to be his wedding day.)

Summary
After their engagement, Ilya and Shane return to Russia under the cover of the Irina Foundation, knowing it may be the last time Ilya ever sets foot there. What waits for him is not closure, but grief, memory, and a past he learned to survive by becoming quiet and hard.
It isn’t about going back to the life he escaped.
It’s about one final goodbye—to the place that shaped him, and to the mother he never stopped missing.With Shane beside him—steady, patient, and fiercely careful—Ilya faces grief he’s spent years surviving, old fear that still lives in his bones, and the quiet truth he’s been avoiding:
some doors don’t close cleanly… but you can still choose how to leave them.This is a story about grief, survival, and choosing a future where home is no longer a place, but a person.

Summary
It keeps happening, it turns into a habit. Kiyoomi keeps kissing him and Atsumu keeps letting him. During practice, when he’s lashing out, Kiyoomi’s first instinct is to shut him up with a kiss and Atsumu melts against him, he always does.
No one comments on it, they just laugh it off and pretend it didn’t happen.
Kiyoomi pretends his heart isn’t climbing up his throat, pretends his cheeks aren’t burning.
This doesn’t mean anything, right? It’s just to shut him up.
or, somehow, kiyoomi keeps kissing him and, somehow, atsumu keeps letting him.

Summary
"Ilya had loved him through his worst moments. Ilya had helped him find a therapist when he’d collapsed on the floor of their hotel bathroom after losing a particularly brutal game, scratching at his chest. Ilya had held him, even when Shane yelled at him because there was panic crawling under his skin and he felt as though it might claw its way out. Ilya had told him it was okay; that it didn’t make him a bad player to resent the spotlight sometimes, that it didn’t make him a bad teammate to hate the team when they were too loud and too drunk and too physical, that it didn’t make him a bad person to need space to breathe. Ilya saved him.
And look what you give him in return. You’re a shitty husband, Shane Hollander.
You don’t deserve his last name."
