Summary
“You’ve got the wrong person. I don’t speak English, sorry,” Yang lied in crisp Mandarin, his preferred ploy for getting away from people who recognised him in public.
The stranger frowned at him—he’d understood. “I know you do, I’ve seen your interviews.” He held out a hand. “Oskar von Reuenthal.”
Somewhat taken aback by the blunt statement, Yang said, “Ah, nice to meet you?”
Reuenthal’s lip curled. “You don’t remember me, do you?” He spoke English with a harsh Germanic accent.

Summary
“With you it’s always ‘Father this’, ‘Father that’.” Gianna sniffed. “It’s an obnoxious habit. Very childish. Act your age.”
“Oh? And trying to interrupt a stranger about his business isn’t obnoxious?”
“You’re such an asshole,” Gianna said, incredulous. “I can’t believe you said that. We’re trying to save a life.”
“If you were remotely interested in charity of that nature you wouldn’t be in the family business.”
The stranger was staring at them now, blinking owlishly. It wasn’t an unfamiliar reaction to anyone exposed to his sister and their quarrels. “Do you guys mind?” he said finally. His voice was rusty, seldom used.

Summary
The first gig Dorothea helps Sylvain land is an extended stunt cameo in a stoner flick, a chance to fully commit to self-parody, playing a washed-up child star turned drug dealer. The wardrobe department outfits him in sunglasses and Hawaiian shirts. He grows some scruff and behaves like an acerbic dirtbag for two weeks. “Pitch-perfect casting,” writes the Tribune. Says Entertainment Weekly: “A familiar face in a nearly unrecognizable performance, Gautier looks like he’s having so much fun being loathsome.”

Summary
Miya Atsumu’s been sitting pretty as the top ranked Bounty Hunter in the city for years, but staunch rival Sakusa Kiyoomi has been steadily catching up to him as of late, making Atsumu’s life difficult in more ways than one.
With the city entering a state of turmoil, and a mastermind hellbent on wiping out the whole guild of Hunters, they’ll have to set aside their differences and work together if they want to make it out alive.
But that’s easier said than done, when neither wants to be the first to give ground.

Summary
"I'm gonna get the new temp professor to sleep with me by the end of the semester."
For a moment, there is only silence. The next, the table breaks out in various degrees of reaction. On the lowest rung is Kita, who merely raises a brow as he drinks his cocktail. Next is Suna and Aran, who are laughing uncontrollably and sputtering in disbelief respectively. But the most explosive of them all is, of course, Osamu—his gaze positively horrified across the table.
"Of all people, really? You're gonna try to fuck my advisor?"
Atsumu grins. "Yeah, I am." He tips his glass towards Osamu. "So put in a good word, won'tcha?" To be extra insufferable, he winks on the question.
Grad student Miya Atsumu makes it his goal to get in the temp professor Sakusa Kiyoomi's pants before Sakusa departs at the end of the semester. As Atsumu executes his plans of seduction, he does end up getting closer to Sakusa ... just not quite in the way that he'd expected.

Summary
“No, actually,” he says, voice carefully casual. He takes a step forward, putting distance between him and Dabi before he turns around. When he has a better view, he says, “I have a proposition for you, Dabi.”
Dabi melts into the shadows—the rough purple-black scars on his face, his dark clothing, his lank hair. The only parts of him that holds any light are his eyes, which are a startling shade of light blue. Something about those eyes is familiar, but Hawks can’t put his finger on what.
“A proposition?” Dabi says. “Is this some kind of fetish, a hero/villain thing? What would the press say?”
Hawks couldn’t give less of a damn what the press says about anything. Chances are, when this is all over, his reputation is going to be sullied by far worse than a sex scandal. That knowledge makes it easy to smile, to laugh, at how ridiculous Dabi is.
“Maybe later,” Hawks says, waving an idle hand. “The proposition I’m talking about is a bit more serious. One your boss is gonna want to hear, I bet.”
Five times Hawks let Dabi get too close, and one time he got too close, himself.

Summary
“Can you imagine if Dimitri came with us?” Sylvain asks. “He’d never shut up about propriety and if I was riding my horse right or any of that shit. This is perfect. Just you and me!”
He slings an arm around Felix’s shoulders. Felix lets him. Sylvain is telling a lie: Dimitri, if he had been allowed to travel with them to quell the rebellion, if he had taken the command his uncle wanted him to, would be quiet and solemn and hollow-eyed, exactly as he’s been the past two years.
But Sylvain is good at lying. Felix didn’t mind it so much when they were younger; it meant Sylvain could always get them out of trouble. It was only in the few years before Glenn died that it began to worry him.
