    Summary

    He can’t be the only one feeling this. He can’t be the quickshot, the one-and-done, because then Takumi will know and everyone will know that this is all he has, that terrible needy want, the sponge of him soaking up attention. Bitterness, contempt, love, whatever. He just needs not to be the fucking giver, the one who empties himself out all the time. He needs to take all of Takumi’s - whatever it is, that immutable kernel that draws everyone into the trajectory of his burning trashfire of a life, a necessary corpse or fucked-out body beneath him. He needs it so bad. Map out the circumference of him and use it to patch up the cracks.

    Someone plays a bad prank on the academy’s students, fuck-or-die style. Takumi and Gaku are caught in the crossfire.

    Summary

    Shu had read The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. An assignment one summer for his English tutor, picked off a list of classics just because he’d known it was a horror story.

    At the time, fourteen and fitful, at the mercy of an unmanageable mind… He'd found it compelling. He couldn’t help but see himself in the doctor’s desperation for self-control.

    He hadn’t liked the ending.

    The first few months: notes on an identity crisis.

    Summary

    To begin with, Kaede shouldn’t be able to afford to think about anyone but himself.

    Yet here he is, still helplessly, hopelessly attracted to Haruka.

    Summary

              Haru only has the strength for one passing thought: Asahi should just abandon him here and give his sports writer brother-in-law a hilarious story to spread around about how national record-breaker gold-medalist freestyle swimmer Haruka Nanase would rather sleep out in the street than attempt to clear any frigging stairs after getting back from the best relay of his career. Instead, though, Asahi’s using all his strength to keep him from sinking to his knees or thinking about giving up at all.

    Asahi’s the one who gets down on a knee ahead of Haru after steadying him, turning around and flexing a bicep. “I don’t look the part, but I can definitely carry you all the way. All the years I spent working out my arms doing butterfly led up to this moment specifically!”
