    Summary

    Back when Verso still believed himself to be just another face in Lumière’s crowd, he was becoming quite impatient with waiting for his soulmate to appear so they could bring colours into each other’s lives. Then, Verso learnt the truth and knew that, in a world where no one was supposed to go through life alone, he was a fake made to exist without anyone to complete his soul.

    It’s more than half a century later when fate mocks him again.

    Summary

    "What if the tiny differences between my universe and yours are that – in mine, you and I ended up together, and… and I'm alive?"

    Universes are seamed like the pages of a book; when they touch, you can walk right through into the next one over. Most of the time, no one would even notice anything amiss. Perhaps there's one less spoon in the world. Perhaps a dog in New Zealand has been named Coco instead of Spot. It would be easy to go on living, none the wiser.

    Except when Oikawa Tooru walks into the universe next door, Iwaizumi Hajime has just arrived home from his funeral.

    Summary

    May still feels like she’s in an alternate reality, sometimes. She looks at Tony and expects to see Richard, but then she remembers when she is, who’s here and who’s not. She has to admit to herself that she likes Tony, that he’s better than she thought he was, and she likes what he brings out in Ben. Ben never really seemed to mesh with Richard, but Tony, despite being multiple tax brackets above them, gets Ben talking like May used to see him do in high school. It’s nice to see. It’s really, really nice for him to have a friend.

    She trails behind them and takes pictures, and doesn’t let her mind wander. Instead, she just admires how Tony is out here in a monkey costume—one of the most famous men in the world, walking the streets in a monkey costume, purely because his son enjoys it.

    Summary

    He’s starting to imagine the fire and brimstone Obie would throw his way, when he hears it.

    It. Being his son, alone in his room at four in the morning, laughing.

    Tony rids his mind of all thoughts and sits up on his elbow, staring at the monitor. Peter is laying on his back like he has been since he fell asleep, and his eyes are closed. The video quality on this monitor is a lot better than the last, and Tony can see the small smile on his face, the way he holds his blue blanket in firm fists.

    For a minute he thinks he imagined it, but then Peter does it again. Lets out a high pitched laugh, and then he’s sitting up, like a shot, almost as if the previous ‘sleep’ pose was just that, a pose, some kind of ruse, like he believes Tony is watching. Tony has yet to buy the monitor where he can talk through it, though he’s been severely considering it, but Peter isn’t aware of the monitor or what it does or the fact that Tony always has an eye on him.

    So what the hell is he doing?

    Summary

    Oikawa wants to stay behind after practice one day for some one-on-one spiking practice with the ace, or so Oikawa explains to Coach Irihata.

    "Don't work yourselves too hard." Irihata calls behind him with a wave of his hand as he departs.

    Iwaizumi grimaces. It wasn't totally a lie.
