Summary
"Lyn isn't just Lyn anymore. She's Lady Lyndis, and she's going to be the marchioness of Caelin, and one day she'll be married off to a lordling. Maybe they'll always be together, but Florina will just be her knight and attendant and nothing more, because Florina is just a foolish child with a crush on someone who will never see her the same way. So she'd buried herself in work, and every time Lyn had approached her she'd said she was busy and darted off, and they've barely spoken for three months, and now all that's left between them is unbreachable silence and emptiness and the soft tick of the clock hanging on the wall. In fact, this is the first time they've been alone together since they arrived. It feels more 'alone' than 'together.'"
Or, five times Florina didn't kiss Lyn, and one time she did.

Summary
“What is it?” Kageyama says it softly, his palm now pressed against Hinata’s face, his thumb brushing the tip of his chin.
“I’m tired,” Hinata says. “I feel it everywhere. I ache everywhere.”
He pauses into the quiet and when his eyes flicker open, he looks as uncertain as he had the day Kageyama had first met him, a whole lifetime ago—like a scared kid, unsure of his place in all of this.
He presses into Kageyama’s touch and then shifts closer, tucking his head against Kageyama’s chest.
“Yamayama,” Hinata says, taking a breath. “What if I retired?”

Summary
If Daichi were to describe rural Aomori diplomatically, he might mention the meditative calm of the quiet coastline or the relaxing pace of life in the country. If Daichi were to describe rural Aomori honestly, however, he would be compelled to admit that staying out here in the middle of nowhere with his cranky aunt has him out of his mind with boredom. Between refereeing borderline-fratricidal altercations amongst his equally bored siblings and listening to his aunt bicker incessantly with her geriatric neighbour over hydrangea pruning, Daichi is ready to rule this the Most Tedious Summer Break of All Time.
And then he meets the neighbour's grandson. Who happens to be the ex-captain of a certain rival Tokyo team. The same ex-captain that Daichi has been thinking about incessantly since he graduated high school. And suddenly Daichi's summer break gets a lot more interesting.

Summary
It’s been one of those days — the headlines are sounding particularly apocalyptic, the only appearance of the sun was brief, still half-shrouded in vapors, and nobody she loves is telling her the whole truth of what’s weighing on them. If she stays home tonight, she’s just going to stare at her phone, in the dark, on the floor, with the slowly dwindling hope that it might buzz.

Summary
Curiosity has always been Kuroo’s death knell; his inability to leave things alone, his need to pull at threads and needle people when things pique his interest. And this - the fact of Daishou sitting here, at the JVA - has definitely, absolutely, gotten his attention.
______In which Kuroo's trying to get his youth camp project off the ground at the JVA, and his new colleague is - to his absolute horror - Daishou Suguru. Daishou, on the other hand, is fresh off a divorce and attempting to co-parent a toddler with his ex - both things that he does his best to keep from Kuroo.
A slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers, work place romance.

Summary
Atsumu would like to think that he’s outgrown whatever silly little crush he’d had on Aran, but he’s come to realize that maybe that silly little crush wasn’t a silly little crush at all. Maybe it's a big, serious crush. Maybe it's love.
Miya Atsumu yearns.

Summary
To the gathered players, Tendou outlines the dilemma, waiting for Ushijima’s stolid nods of approval to confirm his points. “So could we use the gym during the last practice before the new year and do a Christmas celebration for Reon?”
“That sounds really fun!” Soekawa enthuses. Muttering begins among the team, excitement filling the gym as the players chime in with their contributions.
“I have a family friend who lived in France and celebrates Christmas for fun,” Shirabu says, pensive. “She might have a tree we can borrow.”
Kawanishi nods thoughtfully. “I can look up how to make eggnog,” he says, the unfamiliar word a little uncertain in his mouth. “I can bring that.”
“I can make chocolates!” Tendou sighs, already dreaming about the decorations.
“I am Santa,” Ushijima says.
All conversation stops. As one, the team turns to him, jaws dropped.
In which Reon is homesick and Tendou, Semi, and Ushijima come up with a plan to throw him a western Christmas celebration. Featuring a twenty foot tree, Washijou being nice, a sleep-deprived Goshiki, Ushijima as Santa, absolute chaos, and the power of friendship.

Summary
“What are you doing?” Tobio asks, giving Atsumu-san his yakiimo.
“Taking a pic!” Atsumu-san says cheerfully, typing something out on his phone, “My boyfriend peeling sweet potatoes for me. How romantic!”
“Why would you need a picture of that?” Tobio asks around a mouthful of warm sweet potato.
(The sweet potato was really good and maybe worth the later stress felt by all parties involved.)
“So everyone knows how wonderfully you treat me,” Atsumu-san singsongs, picking up his chopsticks and digging into his noodles.
---
In which Atsumu posts way too many pictures of his boyfriend and Tobio, in an attempt to not make it a big deal, turns in into an even bigger deal...- Language:

Summary
Of course if there was one thing that could be counted on, it was Ushijima’s blunt, total honesty. “Do you think Tendou is attracted to me?”
Reon froze. “T-Tendou?”
“Yes.”
Tendou was notoriously hard to read, but Reon kind of figured that he wasn’t the type to be anything less than painfully overt with romantic affections.
“I... I don’t think you have anything to worry about. I think if Tendou was attracted to you, he would let you know,” Reon said. “I'd guess he just considers you his best friend.” He hoped his answer would satisfy whatever frenzy the guy had worked himself into so Reon could finally take advantage of his last precious hours of sleep.
But instead, Ushijima visibly deflated in front of him. “Yes. That’s what I thought too,” he said miserably.
Oh, Reon realized. Oh no...

Summary
"On the day my loan got approved, I could finally relax. I was still too exhausted to cook, but I ordered food—all your dad’s favorites—from his favorite restaurant. And I took out more than two bowls for the first time in months and I plated up all the food nicely on the table. When your dad got home, he was so happy, so grateful, for this food that I didn’t even make myself, that he dropped to his knees and proposed. No plan, no ring, nothing. I was still in my sweaty, wrinkled work clothes. My hair was greasy. It didn’t matter. He wanted to marry me.
You’ll have to find someone who loves you like that too, okay Minju?"
Gong Minju, one broken engagement, two broken arms (not hers, so not to worry!), and three proposals.
