    Bookmarker's Notes

    Later, on the edge of sleep, he would think of her hand thrust out to him and his family in the dingy light of the kitchen, and he would think, vaguely, feeling unsettled, that that was what a lifeline looked like.

    Summary

    An epitaph for the damned.

    Gods would tremble in front of you. Even Lord Muzan would pray. You made an unfeeling monster feel—and now, the consequences are yours to bear.

    Beneath a smile, a broken lullaby gorges his throat.

    Any other night, he would be satisfied with the hunt.

    This one, he cannot eat.

    Summary

    Fall badly enough, and you’re stuck on the sidelines for a week, fingertips turning black with newsprint ink rather than callused with spiking practice. Fall badly enough, and your manga gets discontinued rather than renewed for another arc.

    So Tenma smothers his compulsion to remain in the air and learns the art of falling with grace, if only to learn how to best transition into his next, hopeful jump.

    Tenma Udai, from childhood to Little Giant to college student to manga-ka.

    The issue falls open across his lap; he thinks about how the pages of an open book look like the wings of a bird.

    Summary

    Keiji isn’t even certain that Osamu Miya recognizes him, though they’ve exchanged nods at his brick-and-mortar shop a handful of times before.  They’re far from Tokyo, Keiji supposes, so there is no reason for Miya to expect Keiji in Sendai; but they’re even farther from Osaka, by hours and prefectures and hundreds of kilometers.  There are certainly V.League matches being held this weekend that are far closer to Kansai than the Kamei Arena Sendai.

    The Black Jackals and Adlers fans must be good business to warrant such a voyage, Keiji concludes, and leaves it at that.

    Akaashi and Osamu encounter each other again and again along the V.League circuit, and recognize that they are in parallel pursuits. (Neither of them particularly enjoys being seen.) (At least there are onigiri to use as distractions.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    There had been a time when talking to Miya was a joust over the net, but now it’s more like passing practice: high, gentle arcs, with both a degree of uncertainty and the expectation of return, over and over.
