Summary
“Hey, Miya—”
“I saw the sex stuff in your bathroom,” Atsumu violently blurts against his will.
Time stretches out, eternal, unending… the void at the beginning and end of all things coming to claim Atsumu as he stands in his borrowed house slippers by Sakusa’s door. There’s a ringing in his ears, or perhaps it’s the laughter of some vengeful god.
Sakusa’s expression doesn’t outwardly change. His eyes feel like they’re drilling holes in Atsumu’s head.
“It’s not sex stuff. It’s bondage gear.”

Summary
He looks down his nose at Atsumu, as though in this brief interaction, he has taken a full accounting of Atsumu and found him utterly wanting. It’s pretentious and arrogant and infuriating. It’s exactly what Atsumu would have done.
Atsumu’s mouth curves up in a broad grin. He feels a pulse of pleasure, the sharp prick of keen-edged interest.
“Oh,” he says quietly—so quietly that Sakusa must know that it is for his ears and his ears only. “This is gonna be fun.”

Atsumu always did like them tall and leggy, with emotional baggage and a bad personality.

Summary
Ennoshita sighs next to him, brushing his hair back, and his voice comes out low in both volume and tone. “You’re too smart already.”
“For what?” Kenma pleads. “Is there something about this job that makes everyone who gets offered this position q—”
“All bets on you. You’re a great kid,” Ennoshita says quietly, intensely.
They look towards the back hallway, and the rest of the kitchen cast their eyes down firmly on their prep work as the door opens for the final entrance of the night.
...
Kozume Kenma—status: beggar. Kenma moved to Tokyo for university four years ago, but since graduation, he has yet to land a job. Finally, he’s been accepted to work as a server at one of Tokyo’s finest restaurants: Tiger’s Eye. It should be smooth sailing from here on out, but things don’t go as planned when the executive chef enters the scene.
Ten months ago, Kuroo Tetsurou, executive chef of Tiger’s Eye restaurant, received his third Michelin Star—the highest culinary honor. Since then, he’s become hotheaded, jaded, and often drunk, reviews are getting less positive, and he can’t hold down a new server to save his life. Sunday, none the wiser, Kozume Kenma enters the scene.Series

Summary
Then he is reaching, reaching across the distance between them. Across the Pacific, the Caribbean. The Sea of Japan. Hirose River. The puddle of water that would gather on the doorstep of his childhood home on rainy days.
Then nothing at all.
Or: how Hajime and Tooru learn to bridge the distance between them over the years.
