Summary
“A relationship with a man who will surely become one of your greatest rivals is madness, Carlos! You can make all the promises you want, but competition will always catch you up in the end!"
Juan Carlos' words echo in Carlos' mind. Words his coach had uttered almost three years ago.
And tonight, on the Philippe-Chatrier court, after more than five hours of battle, Juan Carlos' words took on their full meaning.

Summary
spoilers for hsr 3.3
When it comes to predatory, soul-sucking gacha games, Cosmic Impact Rail Zero was probably the worst of the worst. Did it have incredible characters? Yes. An engaging storyline? Double yes. Did it make Mydei want to blow his entire paycheck on weapons and skins and more rolls? Of course it did.
But it also killed off basically every character in the game, including the crown prince that shared Mydei's name– Mydeimos the Undying, Son of Gorgo. How the hell was that even possible?! He literally had undying in his title!?
So when the developers ask for feedback, Mydei goes off on a heated tangent– and finds himself reincarnated as his namesake. You know– the doomed prince, destined for a life of hardship? Destined to die?
Not if Mydei has anything to say about it.

Summary
For the rest of his shift and while pedaling home, all Jannik could think about was Carlos. He tried to reconcile the opponent Frances described, the one who had everyone else running scared, with the boy he saw tonight, who seemed to smile as though he had joy in an endless supply. Jannik didn’t want to underestimate him, but he didn’t want to be scared either.
By the way his stomach flipped when Carlos first saw him, the choice might have been made for him.
[In the heat of the high school tennis season, Jannik inherits Daniil’s varsity spot—and a new rival.]

He hunts the King of Curses, prepared to kill him before the events of the future can ever come to pass. But what he doesn’t expect to find is a disfigured teenager with a bad attitude.

Summary
Jannik closed his eyes, willing the tears not to come. It was one match, against one of the destined greatest of all time. It was Carlos. They were supposed to bring out the best in each other, but maybe that was the problem. Tonight, he was hardly the best of anything. He was the guy with a sore elbow, an aching heart, and a flight to Miami tomorrow instead of a final.
[jannik and carlos, at an end.]

Summary
"Are you staying tomorrow?" Jannik asks as fireworks go off overhead, the stadium illuminated red and violet and gold. The adrenaline of the final is starting to fade, but enough remains for him to say: "If you are—tomorrow, we're going to the coast. If you want to go with us?"
Carlos leans closer, brow wrinkling slightly as he tries to hear over the noise. "Tomorrow? Go where?"
"There's a beach, a little north of here. It's very beautiful. They have jet skiing." Ba-boom. Brilliant fiery flowers spiral across the night sky. The explosions of smaller fireworks syncopate with the suddenly rapid beating of Jannik's own heart. "If you're still here tomorrow, do you want to go? With us?"
Colors in the sky reflect in the smiling eyes looking up at him. "Yeah, of course." Carlos sounds as happy as if he were the one holding the winner's trophy. "Let's go!"
Jannik, Carlos, and a life-changing day in 2022.

Summary
The sun beats down relentlessly on Jannik’s Advanced Bio textbook, the heat blurring the words on the page. He sighs, doodling aimlessly in his notebook, his thoughts drifting far from the concepts on page 27. For twenty minutes, he’s been staring at the same lines, trying—and failing—to commit them to memory. The heat prickles his skin, turning it red under the burning August sun.
Or
Jannik, an exchange student in Madrid, meets Charlie, and they slowly get to know each other.

Summary
"Why'd you want to come here tonight?" Andy asks him. "Honestly."
"Honestly?" Novak echoes. There are crows feet around his eyes, deepening wrinkles and grey in his hair. Andy looks at the man he's known for a quarter-century and sees the boy he met at twelve, that same flash of a grin when he says,
"I wanted to play you again. Here." Novak looks out at the enormous silence of Centre Court. Moths dance beneath the yellow lights. "I wanted to be here with you, one more time."
Andy, Novak, and a late-night conversation before Wimbledon.

Summary
"Nobody's gonna believe you actually yell at your coach, you know."
"Why not? He's really annoying."
"You want me to believe you regularly get mad enough at Juan Carlos to start a fight, but you're not mad at me? Really?"
"What, do you want me to be mad at you?"
"No. Probably? I don't know." Jannik hesitates a moment. "Maybe I think it would be easier. I just feel like I've disappointed you in some way. And I don't know how exactly, so I can only guess."
And how could he not guess, Carlos thinks with an edge of something approaching hysteria. How could he not outright know, after all this time, after everything.
After the Beijing final.

Summary
*COMPLETED*
Once upon a time, before her first rebirth, she would have laughed at a reality in which her – no, the empress Jiang Xuening – not only successfully seduced Junior Preceptor Xie Wei, but assisted in his rebellion, became his empress, and gave birth to three children.
And yet, her last memory before her vision faded to black, sharp pain filling her chest from Xue Yuan’s arrow, was Xie Wei’s hot tears on her face.
When she opened her eyes, she was Zhou Mengyu, 16-year-old daughter of the Duke of Ying, with a scar on her face and a stutter in her voice (how, she wondered), being sent as the latest offering to the emperor Xie Wei. Never mind the emperor was in his 40s and his eldest (and only) daughter by his deceased empress Jiang Xuening was only 2 years younger than her.
