    Summary

    It's too late and with a dawning kind of horror that Hajime realises his worst nightmare isn't his nemesis, the Grand King. No, his worst nightmare is the Grand King getting hurt.

     

    The silhouette of a hero and a villain is identical, what differentiates them is who appears when they come into the light.

    Summary

    The cards weren’t in his favor. “Husker, are you infatuated with that arachnid strumpet?”

    “Yeah, yeah, I am,” he said, going for sarcasm and missing because of the weird panic that was edging into his laugh. “I’m thinkin’ a June wedding.”

    “It’ll lead right into a July funeral, I suspect,” Alastor laughed, slapping his hand on the bar. “No wonder you’re so interested in releasing him from his contract. If Valentino heard there was someone who loved his prized star, why he would be absolutely livid.”

    The cackle was unnecessary and Husk said as much, glowering. When that failed to shut him up, he waited until there was a lull and hissed, “Ya done?”

    There was a pause, a ‘no,’ and then another chorus of maniacal laughter that sent Pentious, who had come into the parlor for something, slithering away with nothing more than an eep and an apology.

    Summary

    “Remember that you got yourself into this mess, Tooru.” Iwaizumi says softly, words a little shaky and conveying his own nerves, hot breath dancing across Oikawa’s cheek, and –

    Oh my God, Oikawa thinks, waiting for the punchline to indicate that this is a joke as he feels a flush rise up his neck and filter into his cheeks, this is actually happening.

    And then the string and the tension snaps, and Iwaizumi is kissing him.

    ---

    Or: Oikawa’s and Iwaizumi’s transition from we’re just two friends doing homework in the same room to we’re definitely more than friends because now we’re making out comes slowly, and then all at once.

    Summary

    Atsumu didn't think it would happen again. This was Sakusa, who was on a whole other level of untouchable. He blows hot then cold, smug in his teasing, sharp in his comebacks, but he remains thoroughly impenetrable. Sometimes during practice, when he nails his serves, Atsumu would send him a grin and yell, "Did'ya see that Omi-Omi? I'm good, aren't I?" And Sakusa would just roll his eyes. Sometimes, he would mock Atsumu's Kansai accent.

    It happened again. And again and again, for months on end. They don't talk about it.

    --

    Or, emotionally constipated idiots fall in love and the internet flips out.

    Summary

    Iwaizumi Hajime has a ring on his finger.

    A simple gold band with modest silver trimming resting snuggly on the fourth finger of his left hand.

    Hajime is only 23 years old, is only in the midst of the second year of his post-graduate degree, and to Charlie’s apparently outdated knowledge, has been single at the very least since his move to America a little over a year ago.

    Imagine his surprise when the dude came waltzing back after a month-long break, with a wedding ring on his finger, legally wed, and not speaking a word about it.

     
    In which Hajime gets married and his friends in California have no idea who the lucky woman is.
