Summary
"I find myself wondering, sweet reader, when exactly someone will take a shovel to the back of this racist statue's metal head and begin dismantling our university’s scandalous love affair with the most problematic donors they could possibly find. I’m looking at you, President Zarkon, kindly remove your hand from the Republican Party’s dick. This is a liberal arts college for God’s sake."
When Galra University's Tumblr page, meant for football game updates and pleads for attendees for club meetings, is plagued by a mysterious writer determined to eviscerate every toxic part of the college, Lance is intrigued. When he becomes a leading character in the anonymous letters, well, he gets a little more curious. Lance becomes determined to unveil the writer and find out a) what is his problem exactly and b) does he really think Lance's eyes are that blue?
A tale in which Lance is oblivious and pining for the hot nerd in the back of his Greek mythology class, Keith can wield a pen with deadly cruelty, and you, dear readers, suffer from the pains of dramatic irony.

“Why’re you hard?” Hikaru’s tone wasn’t demeaning, but pure genuine curiosity. His voice is airy, floating somewhere from the top of Yoshiki’s head. “It feels good for me, but why does it feel good for you?”

Breaking the unspoken rules of sleepovers: a guide by M2 by purplesan

Summary
‘Let’s have a sleepover.’ Matt told him casually one rainy afternoon.
Instead of the excitement or enthusiasm he had hoped for at the suggestion though, Mello looked at him as if he’d just suggested they should volunteer to do the dishes for an entire week for fun or something.
‘You want to invite other kids over to our room?’ Mello scoffed, his face scrunching up in disgust or displeasure.
And honestly, fair enough. The thought of bringing other kids into their room didn’t appeal to Matt either, so he kind of understood Mello’s reaction. If he assumed that’s what Matt meant, then it was no wonder he’d respond like that. Perhaps he was more open to the idea if he understood properly.
‘No, I meant just the two of us.’ Matt clarified, his tone hopeful.
Now, Mello just looked puzzled.
‘You want to have a sleepover.’ he said.
‘Yeah.’
‘With just the two of us.’
‘Yeah.’
‘Matt, we’re roommates.’
---
Or: Matt doesn't know how sleepovers work. Neither does Mello, but he's a little too proud to admit that. (They make it work in the end).

Summary
Hikaru shifted closer, one hand steadying himself on the futon beside Yoshiki. His voice dropped to a soft whisper, eyes wide and tender—so soft that it almost hurt to look at him. “I really love you, y’know,” he said. “As long as you love me back… as long as you only look at me… I’ll do anything for you.”
Yoshiki let out a shaky breath, their lips brushing together briefly. Horrified by what this creature was but aching with a desperate longing for Hikaru, he murmured, “Don’t say that.”
“But it’s true,” Hikaru insisted, his voice barely audible. “You’re the only thing that ever made me happy. Even before I was this… even when I was just a shadow drifting on a mountain. It’s always been you.”
