    Summary

    Learning a language for your bro was totally a reasonable thing to do, Reki decided. A best bro. A bro who you wanted to spend the rest of your life with. A bro who you would follow across the universe. A bro who you loved so much, as a friend, that you genuinely couldn’t imagine your life without them at your side.

    -

    It's almost time to graduate, and neither Reki nor Langa have any concrete plans for their first foray into adulthood. But they'll have to decide what to do eventually--whether it's going to university, finding a full-time job, or trying to make skating a lucrative past-time. There is only one sure thing: Reki wants his future to include Langa no matter what, even if that means following him halfway across the world.

    Sure, Reki's aware that learning English won't guarantee that he and Langa spend the rest of their lives together, but he figures it'll at least give him a fighting chance.

    Strangely enough, he's right.

    Summary


    "Miya, get back here!" Reki flailed his arms, paddle waving in the air, as he watched the raven-haired gremlin race across the ballroom floor.

    "Going twice..."

    Rubbing the wine from his suit pants with a sigh, Reki twirled the paddle in his hands, shaking it dry before his ears twitched at the speaker's tinny roar.
    "...sold! To the very enthusiastic redhead in the...um, interesting mustard suit."

    Reki turned around, looking up at the stage. Everyone else was staring back at him and the wine-drenched paddle in his hands.

    "Oh fuck."

    Summary

    And then the countries start filing out onto the stage, one by one. And then it’s their turn to step out of the tunnel, into the heart of the National Stadium, into the blinding lights and the deafening cheers and the music that pounds into every bone in his body. And then it finally hits him.

    He’s here.
