Summary
"Are you sure these wings will work, sir?” You blinked down at Dedalus’ creations, a feeling of dread creeping up your spine. Wax and feathers, and straps to hold them to the user’s arms. You didn’t want to admit it, but the plan Neito’s father had spent months on looked more than likely to fail.
“Positive! I tested them myself on the tower roof this morning.” He turned to his son, clapping a hand on his shoulder. “You must remember to keep yourself from flying too high because the sun will melt the wax and make these wings useless. And also-”
Neito interrupted him, rolling his eyes. “Yes, father, I know. You’ve mentioned that.”
“Let me finish! You must not fly too low, because the ocean spray will get the wings wet and weigh you down.” You’d never seen his father look so stern.
“I understand, father! I won’t fly too high or too low.” His brows furrowed as he shook his father’s grip from his shoulder, pouting like a petulant child. “I’m not an idiot.”
“I know how prone you are to posturing, my son. I just need to be sure you understand.”

Summary
Denki and Hitoshi were once in love. They were blissfully happy, playing together in a band with their friends, living in a tiny apartment with their cat Udon. Denki was writing and singing, and Hitoshi was saving money for a ring and trying to get stable enough to adopt his little sister out of foster care. When a big opportunity comes up for Hitoshi, he has to decide whether to further his career in Tokyo or stay in Osaka with Denki. When his choice is made it leaves the both of them shattered, and Denki is left to pick up the pieces of their band and the life they’d built. When a gig shoves the two of them back together, Hitoshi wonders if his decision was worth losing the man he loves. Does he have what it takes to make things right between them?
Or
A ShinKami band AU based very loosely on the manga/anime Nana by Ai Yazawa.

Dad Jokes and Bad Pick-up Lines by kingexpl0sionmurder

Summary
Denki wasn’t sure what else to say. He was fighting back the urge to unashamedly hit on the man in front of him or ask him out, which would be his go-to. He’d made a promise to himself that he would play it cool and not date anyone for a while, and trying to start something with Shinsou was directly violating that promise.
It was hard to fight back the urge to bite his lip and squint and deliver one of his best (worst) pick-up lines.
“What are you doing? You have that look like you’re about to say one of those horrible pick-up lines.” Shinsou interrupted his thought process.
“What the hell? How did you-” Astounded, Denki raised his eyebrows.
“I’ve been on the receiving end of enough of them to know, Kami.” Standing up, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a card. “Here, this is the address for the meeting, come in street clothes. 6 pm tonight.” He tossed it onto Denki’s desk. “Save that pick-up line for later. I need to drink an espresso brewed with Redbull instead of water before I’m ready to handle that cringe.”
Scoffing, Denki picked up the card. “Rude. Please don’t drink that, though. I’m pretty sure it might kill you.”
“Sweet release.” Shinsou deadpanned, heading for the door.

Summary
“You were the needle in the haystack,” Shouto cleared his throat, suddenly feeling nervous with everyone’s eyes trained on him. He was sweating in places he wasn’t even aware he could sweat from, which was concerning. However, he needed to focus, so he took a deep breath and looked up from the paper clutched between his sweaty fingertips. “I was looking for you when I didn’t even know what I was looking for. My eyes wandered for years, maybe centuries, looking for you, the one person who would understand.”

Summary
“I just mean, it’s not going to be as easy as me being like ‘Hey, Hitoshi, I’m kind of in love with you, so if you could just let me down easy that would be great and we can move past this awkward moment in both our lives.’”
Someone cleared their throat behind him. “Why would I have to let you down?”

Summary
“I mean, we’re two straight guys,” Gyuvin says, and Ricky nods assent. “I’m not gonna like, make out with him.”
Hanbin snorts, then coughs out a laugh, then chokes on air before sitting up. “Sure,” he says, voice drowsy. “Sureee,” he drawls out again, presumably because he thinks they didn’t get the message the first time.
Ricky is straight. Gyuvin is straight. They are best friends. They have been just best friends for years.
And yet, everyone still doubts their undeniable heterosexuality.

Summary
The thing is, Atsumu and Osamu were like that. Somehow always connected, always aware.
For every fight, they’d share a victory. For every disagreement, they’d celebrate a triumph. For years, they’d be in each other’s throats, but they’d always have each other’s backs. Always. No matter what.
Until Kita Shinsuke. Shinsuke, whom Atsumu loved. Shinsuke, who was Atsumu’s boyfriend for over a year.
Shinsuke, who Atsumu caught naked and willing in Osamu’s bed, his very own twin on top of him.
--
This is a messy story of betrayal, and forgiveness, and healing, and love. And maybe finding a place to belong in the process.
