Summary
Kuroo is SO EXCITED to finally live with Kenma now that they're both at university. But now that Kenma is more confident and more comfortable with himself, Kuroo wonders if he's the only one who's been waiting for their life together to begin.
“If it takes Kenma ten years to realise that he doesn’t want me as a romantic partner, then that’s ten years I get to spend with him while he figures it out. Maybe at that point we’ll have a house and five cats and he’ll decide it’s too much of a hassle to move out.”
Yaku stares at him. “That’s the saddest, most desperate thing I've ever heard.”
(Spoiler alert: It doesn't take Kenma ten years.)

Summary
Nearly a year after Hua Cheng's return, Xie Lian lives a quiet, contented life at Puqi Shrine. Then a golden light cleaves the stillness when a Heavenly Scroll arrives:
By the will of the Heavenly Court, the Prince of Xianle is summoned to audience within one hour to advise upon matters of celestial security. Attendance is required.
—Acting Commander of the Celestial Realm, etc., Feng Xin“Looks like they couldn’t do without you for long,” Hua Cheng said lightly. But there was no teasing in it.
“I suppose I knew it would come,” Xie Lian said. “Eventually.”
(In which Xie Lian is pulled back to Heaven, and he learns the limits of mercy—and what love looks like when it’s powerful enough to terrify the heavens.)

Summary
In the living room, Kuroo was sitting cross-legged on the floor, his sleeves rolled up, sorting through a shallow cardboard box labeled in thick black marker: MISC TECH.
“What does this even mean,” Kuroo said, holding up a tangled cable that looked like it belonged in a museum.
“You labeled it,” Kenma said.
“That doesn’t mean I remember doing it.”
“You were mad at the modem. You put all the extra stuff in there after the third reset.”
“Why do you remember that?”
Kuroo was still muttering on the floor, feeding cables into a drawer-shaped organizer in uneven bursts. Mochi had claimed the corner of the box lid and was biting the edge with deep concentration, ignoring every attempt at redirection.
Kenma stood at the edge of the room and just—watched.
This was the part no one ever saw. The unglamorous middle of things. Noisy drawers. Half-cooked dinners. Recycled cardboard left too long in the genkan. The rhythm of a shared life lived at a low volume.
(In which Kenma reads the pattern, and finally names it.)

Summary
Kodzufan15: who do u think loves the other person more? u or volleyball-san?
By all accounts, it’s a terribly invasive question Kenma might not even answer if a friend asks it. Maybe he’s in a good mood today because it’s Friday, and Kuroo will be home earlier than usual. Maybe because the weather today is not too hot and not too cold. Maybe he feels like giving his fans a tiny bit of information to keep them spiraling and interested in him enough to tune in this weekend for more. He does indulge in little details about his life with Kuroo from time to time, anyways.
There’s a second delay as his screen loads, and Kenma uses this time to say quietly into his mic, “Who loves the other more? Hm. It’s obvious, isn’t it?”
or
A question, multiple flashbacks, a confession, and eventually, an answer.

Summary
“I’ll shut up,” Dick promised. “But I’m not going to walk away.”
Jason was going to walk away then, walk away from all of this stupid shit. He didn’t need to be here, he was handling the broken ribs and the punctured lung and all the other shit just fine on his own, Goldenboy hadn’t needed to break into his Safe House like that and he certainly hadn’t needed to force Jason to come to this stupid ass place.
He was fine, this pain was nothing, the trembling in his hands were only from irritation and nothing else.
The lights were too bright and the stench of antiseptic was making his head spin and if someone did not turn off that fucking beeping the next room over, Jason was going to shoot something.
Dick… Still hadn’t said anything.
Jason eyed him, waiting for the motherfucker to bring out another damn fluffy pen or an even stupider pun or something but Dick was just standing there like an idiot. Well, he wasn’t standing completely still at least, that would have been fucking unnerving.

Summary
In practice, they’d both been subjected to horrors that would almost defy comprehension if they didn’t still haunt her so viscerally, shape so much of who both she and Kaz had to become in the aftermath.
The newly formed life inside of her - how can she bring it into the world, knowing there is always the chance she could be subjecting it to that?
She’d expected this discovery, if and when it ever occurred, to be a momentous, joyous occasion. She’d not expected abject terror, relentless in its vice grip.

Summary
Sydney thinks that if she found out she was pregnant a little earlier she probably wouldn’t have gone through with it. Like, if she found out before her landlord changed the locks on her apartment, or before the bank sent her all those red letters, or before the pasta dried up, she’d probably have just taken herself to Planned Parenthood, popped the pills and charged it to the game. But as it is, the two blue lines appear on the stick during the worst months of her life, the first months of the pandemic when she’s unemployed and shit scared that her dad is going to get coronavirus and die. And when she sees them, she just thinks: well, this might as well happen. She was a disappointment before. What’s one more thing?
Before she meets Carmy, Sydney has a baby.

Summary
“I knew you were special,” He hummed, turning his head side to side, “What a wonderful find you were.”
His lips pressed to the side of Xie Lian’s neck, kissing the tense cord of muscle that sidelined his jugular. It was butterfly soft, accompanied by the firm hand on Xie Lian’s chin keeping him perfectly still. San Lang’s tongue slid over the skin he’d kissed, wetting it before he closed his lips to suck. When he pulled back, the skin was red and shiny with spit, the muscles below twitching.

“Gege?” he asks softly, like it might scare Xie Lian away.
Xie Lian pauses. “Yes, San Lang?”
“I…” he thinks of how to word this question — this ridiculous idea — in a way that does not sound perverse. “Could you— could you touch me again?”
