    Summary

    At fourteen, she told her they were going to become the biggest authors the world will ever know. At sixteen, she told her they were going to own eight cats and three Shiba Inus and take her to see the West Coast. At eighteen, she would have told her they were going to get an apartment in Akihabara after they’d graduated and work their way up a publishing house. Kyomoto would have asked, with the eight cats and three Shiba Inus, all in one place? And she would have laughed, and told her yes, forever, yes, even when the whole of Japan and the rest of the world didn’t know the word for it yet. Even when they both didn’t.

    Summary

    Six years after he and Viktor part ways on antagonistic terms, Jayce wakes up in the Machine Herald’s medical clinic.

    Jayce desperately wants to rub at his forehead, but the binding at his wrist stops him. He settles for squeezing his eyes shut. “Why?” he asks.

    Viktor is silent for barely a moment. He says, tonelessly, “I assumed this was preferable to dying.”

    Summary

    “Your eyes won’t lie… when your mind is open, Jayce.” He raises his stave, a shepherd’s rod ready to guide humanity into a golden age, to herd them with the care he was never granted without having to give up some part of himself in exchange. They rise, as they had risen that first day together, reality swelling with the shimmering blue fruits of their efforts.

    Soon, they’re tangling together in the air, a writhing mass of limbs against limbs, metal against skin. When they burst through the ceiling, shattering yet another structure that prevented them from reaching higher than they were permitted, he looks down on Jayce’s trembling form. He wonders if this is how the Pilties felt seeing him limp through their streets after his partner, pretending he didn’t know that they only kept him around because he was Jayce’s favorite pet.

    Viktor will be a much more attentive master than Jayce had been back then.

    ~

    Viktor becomes a saint, then a martyr, then a man again.

    The first time Alhaitham doesn’t show up to their designated biweekly gathering with Tighnari and Cyno, Kaveh does not let it bother him.

    The second time it happens, Kaveh can tell he isn’t hiding his concern as well as he wants to.

    By the third missed game night in a row, Kaveh’s skin is buzzing, sadly not from the alcohol.

    In which Alhaitham takes care of Kaveh by having Kaveh take care of him.

    Summary

    “...You’re not—”

    “Done? Who do you think you’re talking to, you loser?”

    It had taken some time for them to acknowledge that this was their relationship at its peak. Mutual antagonism made both of them push towards being the very best versions of themselves, leading to rates of growth that so far hadn’t shown any signs of slowing down. He was the villain to Isagi’s hero, the darkness to his light. On the pitch, anyway.

    You came up with all kinds of corny shit on the pitch.

    Isagi smiled genuinely, this time. “What the hell... You really are so cool.”

    Barou Shouei is living his best life during the first match of the FIFA U-20 Cup as the centre forward of the Japanese team, when a devastating injury knocks him out of the game and throws a wrench of uncertainty into his future as a pro. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, Isagi Yoichi — that relentless bastard — absolutely refuses to leave him alone.

    Chemical reactions ensue as they get educated about themselves and one another while moving inevitably closer to that which looms ever so large in the horizon; The FIFA World Cup.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    incredible, electric, impeccable pacing, the type of fic where you can’t look away even for a single word

    this fic’s depiction of the barou-isagi dynamic has become my absolute truth and the choreography of the matches made me feel like i was reading the manga again. the duo’s destructive, all-consuming mutual desire for each other and for the goal,, the way they inevitably collide has been captured so perfectly…… but what killed me the most was barou admitting to himself in the semi-finals that he just really liked playing soccer with isagi… fucked me up

    idk if i’ll read anything else in 2024 that tops this

    loved isagi in this, loved barou in this too, loved oliver actually, and ego too, loved everyone. their voices were all so them??? every time barou had to spend more than three seconds agonizing over isagi i was over the moon honestly. and the crazy unrepentant egoist motherfucker that is isagi is laid out so well… so incredibly well-written, like a love letter to blue lock. i’m still reeling

    Summary

    Hey, Rin? It’s Isagi Yoichi. You’re probably sick of hearing from me by now. This is gonna be my last message. I’ll be in Tokyo in May to visit my parents. Maybe we could meet then? And hang out. Or something. Anyway, I’ll drop by your place during Golden Week. If you don’t want to see me, it’s cool.

    Rin doesn’t delete the message. He replays the message when folding paper planes and launching them into the air from his balcony. Isagi’s voice isn’t the worst soundtrack in the world.

    Summary

    “There are three suitors who you can romance in this game. You must complete all your requirements with one of them."

    “Who are the three potential suitors?” Kaveh asks warily.

    “Your three suitors are Tighnari, the blunt Palace Chamberlain; Cyno, the standoffish Captain of the Royal Guard; and Al-Haitham, the acerbic Duke of Vultur Volans.”

    There's a new invention from the Yae Publishing House that turns a user's dreams into light novel stories. Kaveh has the (un)fortunate pleasure of being one of its first users.

    Too bad it dumped him in a romance game.

    Summary

    The curtain of their working relationship drops back into place; obscures Furina the individual - and when she steps back, to retreat down the hall to her chambers - she is Furina the Archon once more, Regina of All Waters. Untouchable, dignified, regal and answerable to no-one; not to the kindreds she rules over, not to her people, and certainly not to Neuvillette - no matter how many answers he wishes to pry from her. 

    Newly appointed Chief Justice Neuvillette accepts an invitation from his Hydro Archon to attend an opera; neither of them quite know what they're letting themselves in for.

    Summary

    That’s a draw to Lyney, a gravitational attraction.

    The simple explanation would be that he reminds her of her brother. The even simpler explanation would be that he’s dazzling—is made to dazzle, to lure, to distract, by the very nature of his profession. Like a shining conch lying at the floor of the ocean, leading Lumine astray from her initial quest in favour of running her hand over its spiny, glittering surface. Perhaps the distraction is why it aches a little less, letting herself get carried by the roar of the gasps and cheers and applause of the crowd.

    However, Lyney is more than just a magician donning a top hat; he embodies the concept well, but he’s only human. Capable of performing, just as capable of being hurt.

    And sometimes, he looks at her strangely. After his performance ends, when the afterglow has worn off, when the adrenaline has dissipated, he always glances at her, a little sad of eye.

    or: how to unperform.

    Summary

    The problem: You, a rank-and-file Fatui soldier, have just witnessed your boss, the second of the Fatui Harbingers, scream at the sky and drop dead. You have a week until your ship arrives back at Zapolyarny Palace and you have to explain to the Tsaritsa how you managed to let one of her most precious Harbingers die.

    The solution: You pretend he’s alive for as long as possible, so that when he is found dead later, it will be considered entirely unrelated to the time you were supposed to keep him safe.

    The method: Lie. Like. A. Dog.

    Summary

    Wriothesley prides himself on many things - among them, being a good judge of character, and having a knack for discerning the 'truth'.

    Both of these things are called into question when he encounters the former Hydro Archon. She may no longer be a god, but he still finds her just as incomprehensible.

    Summary

    "She's...she's gone?" Furina says, soft and uncertain in a way she's still not sure she's allowed. There's the familiar panic, of course - the surety that she messed up, that the act was slipping; the urge to claw out her composure until it tore her face into a smile. The old fatigue, too, but that had always been the easiest to push down. "Mir– Focalors. The, um, Hydro Archon. She's gone?"

    "...yes," Neuvillette says, with a complex expression. "She was condemned to death by the Oratrice, and bore it's judgment to fulfill the prophecy. Her role in Fontaine has at last concluded, Lady Furina." He looks at her again, gaze softening further. "...as has yours."


    Furina talks to Neuvillette after her trial, after the flood, and after her role is finally over.

    (An extra scene at the end of the 4.2 Archon Quest, before the Traveler meets Neuvillette at the entrance to the Fortress of Meropide)

    Summary

    Shouyou wonders what the people watching him go by would think if they knew. You see that one guy, Japan’s top scorer? I once played a game against him and won. You see the one making his Olympic debut before he’s even turned twenty? After matches, we would walk home together. He doesn’t like to hold hands but he likes to pull you close. We’d walk with our arms linked close and stars dotting the sky. It always smelled of cherry trees.

    Kageyama must be on top of the world, right now. Shouyou isn’t there with him. 

    It feels bittersweet, in a way. He’s not there, but he will be. Just because he took a detour doesn’t mean he’s stopped running; he might be taking the long way home, but he’ll get there when the time is right. He made a promise, after all. 

    He sends Kageyama a text. I saw you today. You were amazing.

    Then he races.

    Or, Hinata Shouyou takes the long way home. Featuring the universal experience of being other, untranslatable words, Carnival-induced catharsis, and of course, hunger.
