Summary
It wasn’t a weird thing to want. Most people liked to be able to help a friend in need. He hadn’t been more experienced than Iwaizumi in anything for years.
Iwaizumi stared at him like he had grown a head. Or maybe, like it was a weird thing to want. “What?!”
“C’mon, we’re friends,” Oikawa said, already scooting over. “Kiss me. I’ll tell you if you’re awful.”
It's not weird or gay to consistently hook up with your best friend. It's actually a really good idea.
(Just make sure to ignore that ugly, nasty, thing that lives between your ribs.)

Summary
“If it meant sitting behind a screen and watching your partner die, or going into the field and dying with them…” Oikawa trails off, before he turns from looking down to meeting Iwaizumi’s gaze. “I’d choose death any day.”
Iwaizumi’s stomach leaps and does a flip when Oikawa latches onto his gaze and holds him there. It takes him more effort than necessary to swallow, and it’s difficult for him to find his voice. “Are all you Quartermasters this crazy?”
“Only the ones in love, I think.”

Summary
It's the December after Iwaizumi’s last year in university when Tokyo welcomes him with a new ad campaign for Bright Days toothpaste, and Oikawa Tooru—fresh off a run at the 2016 Summer Olympics—has decided to grace the city with his signature grin, a flip of his wayfarer sunglasses, and the most irrepressible tag line for the signboard above.
‘Are you in love with me?’ it reads, Oikawa taunts, and Iwaizumi can only find the whole thing a pointless exercise in the usual flirtations.
(Because i would never fall for you in a million years, he types out in reply, before deciding against it.)

Or,

Summary
No one had ever smiled at Tooru like that before.
So sincerely, like he wasn’t a faceless being in the way, or a nuisance for asking questions, or public enemy number one because he’d inadvertently reminded the teacher that homework was due simply by turning in his own well before the deadline.
He smiled like Tooru was a friend. Someone he already knew and even liked.
So genuinely. So patiently. So beautifully.
And really—who wouldn’t fall in love with Iwaizumi after that?
Oikawa Tooru is unpopular, a nerd and hopelessly pining over his university's resident heart-throb: captain of the volleyball team, Iwaizumi Hajime.

Summary
“I told you, we broke up like six months ago. We’re not dating anymore.”
Hanamaki eyes him suspiciously. “You live together.”
“Yeah, so?”
“There are pictures of you two kissing stuck to your refrigerator.”
Hajime shrugs. “That wasn’t my idea. Anyways, they’re good pictures. Good lighting.”

Summary
“Iwa-chan?” Oikawa blinked, pulling his face into his hands and smiling his signature, lopsided grin, the one Iwaizumi wanted to kiss him through, pull moans out of, wrap around his length and suck his soul into.
Iwaizumi leapt from the bench and roughly dropped Oikawa to the ground, a hurried apology tossed over his shoulder as he sprinted back to his dorm. He dove into a cold shower until his nerves settled before climbing into bed, ignoring his phone blowing up by Oikawa and responding to Hanamaki that he was fine, that he just needed some time to think.
About that ass tho wwwww, Hanamaki replied.
I hope you die, Iwaizumi sent, and turned his phone off.
That was the first night Iwaizumi touched himself to the thought of Oikawa.

Summary
Close enough, Oikawa smiles, sputtering a laugh as he imagines the way Iwaizumi’s face screws up. “It’s only normal that distance makes people grow apart, Iwa-chan.”
“And absence makes the heart grow fonder, or…something like that.”
Oikawa’s resistance folds like paper, his head turning to look at Iwaizumi, whose eyes are still trained on the ceiling. “You never answered my question.”
“Because it’s a stupid question,” Iwaizumi slides his eyes shut, “you’ve been asking a lot of those recently.”
“So mean, Iwa-chan,” Oikawa responds with no weight, reaching to lace their fingers together, “why can’t you just tell me you’ll miss me?”
It takes Iwaizumi a moment to respond to that one. “What would it change, if I did?”

Summary
One: Iwaizumi’s competitive edge was not going to let him back down from this challenge, which meant he was going to do his absolute best to prove that he was a manager that Oikawa was going to hate to lose.
Two: He was going to have to get some kind of drink carrier for his bike, and prepare to rack up a massive amount of points at the coffee shop.
Three: Despite the man’s unworldly beauty and ability to dazzle Iwaizumi into a tailspin, he absolutely, positively, without a shadow of a doubt, cannot stand Oikawa Tooru.

Summary
Oikawa is sixteen when the first Kaiju breaks through the Breach. He is seventeen when he stands resolutely next to Iwaizumi and signs the papers to join the effort to save the world.
Or, the end of everything comes like this: the Kaiju rising from the endless depths of ocean, the man-made gods charging through the waters to get to them, and Iwaizumi in his head saying, I’m in love with you.

“Why do you go away? So you can come back…. coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
Or, how Iwaizumi and Oikawa's journeys away from home led them right back to each other.

Summary
No one on the team has mentioned it to him yet, and he prefers to keep it that way. They likely don’t remember that he and Oikawa Tooru, #13 of the Men’s Argentina National Volleyball Team, played on the same team in high school. And even if they do, they certainly wouldn’t know that they were closer than just the ace and his setter.
If God truly loves him, his team will stay both ignorant and away from him.
When Miya Atsumu sits down next to him, propping his chin on the heel of his hand and staring at him with an unnervingly knowledgeable gaze, Iwaizumi knows that God has forsaken him.
Or; it's the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics, and the Volleyball Olympic gold matchup is between Argentina and Japan. Iwaizumi Hajime, the athletic trainer for the Japanese Men's National Volleyball Team, observes the #13 Argentinian setter from afar. He tells his team that he doesn't know Oikawa Tooru as well as he used to, and he tells himself that the concern he feels for his estranged best friend is just his mind playing cruel tricks.
Until Sakusa Kiyoomi, outside hitter for Team Japan, convinces him otherwise.

Summary
Iwaizumi is a young, bright-eyed criminal prosecutor fresh out of law school. After half a year of trying misdemeanor cases and learning the art of argument through his mentor, Ushijima Wakatoshi, he finally gets his first felony case: a murder of an affluent CEO by his son, Daishou Suguru.
But when he meets Daishou’s defense attorney, a talented and extremely successful lawyer by the name of Oikawa Tooru, he finds himself wavering in his ability to prosecute the case. Especially when Oikawa looks like that fucking good in his pressed suit and tie.
(lawyer!AU - in which Iwaizumi loves his objections, Oikawa is beautiful, and they have more chemistry than two opposing attorneys probably should.)

Summary
Or maybe it’s just the Argentinian national team shirt. In the dim, the blue could be mistaken for Seijou teal. Or the cobalt of Kitagawa Daiichi. Maybe that’s Oikawa’s cosmic trajectory, Hajime thinks—forever graduating from one shade of blue into the next.
In which Oikawa returns to Tokyo for the Olympics. In which it's been a while. In which the reunion is clumsy.Series

Summary
"You're in love with him."
Hajime considers denying it. He considers deliberately choking on his drink to express surprise, to create a distraction by spitting onto the man in front of him's pristine white shirt and causing a commotion. Instead, he swallows his mouthful of soda and heaves a small sigh once his mouth is free.
"Yeah," he says instead.
He's never been good at lying, anyway.
