Summary
On a stag do in sunny Brighton with the Gryffindor lads, the last person Harry expects to run into is Draco Malfoy. After a glimpse of Malfoy’s Muggle life in Britain’s gay capital, Harry’s curiosity gets the better of him and he finds himself returning to the seaside again and again, drawn to the city, drawn to this new version of Malfoy that Harry barely recognises from school.
Meanwhile, Draco’s just trying to live his big and best queer life: working for the weekend, chasing hot men, getting lost in Brighton's nightlife, and making friends with the neighbourhood cats. Why does his former school rival and crush have to show up and spoil everything?

Summary
Asahi is a tailor who leads a simple life in a quiet village.
At least he was, until he was kidnapped by Nishinoya, captain of the Rolling Thunder.
Now, as he tries to make his way back home, he wonders—is a simple life what he truly wants?

Summary
Iwaizumi raised his eyebrows at Oikawa in surprise. “You like cars?” he asked, removing his hands from the pocket of his black joggers, standing up straighter, the backs of his legs hitting the hood of his car.
“Like them?” Oikawa laughed brightly, stepping into the already slight space between them. “Baby, I bring them to life,” he whispered into the increasingly hazy air.
For an esteemed racer, intended for the big leagues, owning a garage and racing on the streets should feel like settling rather than a dream. But Oikawa is happy as long as he's behind the wheel of a car; until a misstep lands him a heavy fine, and a crumbling future.
Having grown up in one of the roughest neighbourhoods in Tokyo, Iwaizumi is no stranger to the gang life. He's a man of action, someone who does what he's asked without any questions. But when the people he's tried so hard to distance himself from come knocking, he realizes that he finally has to establish a side: his own.
Iwaizumi wants Oikawa's expertise: someone who can both drive well and knows his way around cars. And Oikawa wants absolutely nothing to do with gangs, the kind of people that lit a fire to his life.

Summary
A sudden itch logged in his throat, and he hacked and coughed to lodge it out. It ends with him panting and out of breath, crouched in the middle of his living room, and with dread his eyes land to the small purple flower in his hand coupled with needle-like leaves. Across the room, the announcer for the match roars in tandem with the crowd’s cheers as Ushijima Wakatoshi slams the winning point against France in a payback match.
Kiyoomi crumples the flower in his hand and curses. “Not on laundry day goddammit.”

Summary
After his shower, Atsumu walks into the bedroom to find Sakusa laying a drop cloth over what looks like some kind of plastic sheet. The faint crinkle of plastic reminds Atsumu of the way Sakusa set things up the time they played with temperature; it made sense then, because between all the water, ice, and the hot wax, things got really messy.
Exactly how messy are things going to get today?

So, the rules go like this:
If they are seeing other people, they must be open about it.
Protection isn’t a question.
No pictures or videos or Polaroids or anything.
And lastly, no kissing.

Summary
“Miya Atsumu,” drawls a voice Atsumu’s heard once or twice or twenty times whilst watching post-match interviews. He stops abruptly in the doorway and follows the voice to a face that plagues his social media feeds and the pages of Volleyball Monthly, a face that’s frustratingly better-looking in person without the lines of an Olympic net between them spoiling the view. “The benchwarmers get prettier by the season.”
Atsumu tucks his hands into his sweatpants pockets, straightens out his shoulders, and narrows his eyes. He’s done his homework for this moment, finessed information out of Kageyama and Hinata, and spent more than a few collective hours on the CA San Juan player profile webpage.
“Oikawa Tooru,” he says slowly. “Surprised they let a scrub that couldn’t make it to nationals in here. Didn’t think the barrel was so empty they’d hafta start scrapin’ it already. Onigashira musta been busy, huh?”

Summary
Kuroo calls him one day, out of the blue.
Kei and him had exchanged numbers after training camp but he never expected an actual call. They text here and there, they send each other songs, pictures, maybe a video of something amusing.
But it doesn't happen often and they never call.
Until today, apparently.

Summary
“I think ya missed a spot there, Omi-kun,” Atsumu says, smiling wickedly, towel resting lowly on his hips as he gets closer and closer to Kiyoomi. Kiyoomi, who is draped almost too-casually against the side of his easel, hand flexing against the paintbrush that he never set down. Kiyoomi, who burns so brightly in Atsumu’s presence, always waiting for his next move.
(or, sakusa is an artist who's started to lose his spark. atsumu is a figure-drawing model who burns enough for two.
they can't resist.)

Summary
“The name’s Kuroo,” he introduced, a wicked grin tracing his lips. “Pleasure's mine.”
Kei said nothing. Kuroo continued.
“You seem like a smart guy, Tsukishima-kun. I’ll give you three guesses as to why I’m here.”
Kei only needed one.
“Akiteru’s gotten into some trouble, hasn’t he?”
Of all the people Kei expected to show up at his door on a Friday night, a member of the fucking yakuza surely wasn't one.Series

Summary
Kiyoomi is frozen, staring down at the door handle, considering how badly it would fuck up their relationship if he turned around and went home.
Because Atsumu is three days into being down for a week with a sprained ankle and strict orders to stay in bed and not fuck around. Because Atsumu had called him the second practice was over today, talking about how his heating pad had burnt out and Osamu was working late, could Kiyoomi bring him a new one? Because his voice was thick and watery. Because he had sniffled.
Kiyoomi hung up on him.

Summary
A rejection has never scared Oikawa before because he never gets one. They always choose to stay the night. They always want him just a little more than he wants them. But Iwaizumi’s hesitation makes him more anxious than he thought he would feel.
What do you say? Will you stay a while longer? After you leave for work tomorrow morning…will you ever come back?
“Don’t worry,” he says. “I’m not the committing type.”
After a beat, Iwaizumi says, “Neither am I.”
“Then we’re on the same page.”
…
Oikawa Tooru, executive chef of the Michelin-starred restaurant Blue, has finally—after three years of trying—gotten his hands on the phone number of one Iwaizumi Hajime, rotisseur at his biggest rival’s restaurant. One night is all he’s ever wanted…at least until Iwaizumi actually agrees to come over and he meets him face to face. But don’t worry, Oikawa just isn’t the committing type... Right?

Summary
Ennoshita sighs next to him, brushing his hair back, and his voice comes out low in both volume and tone. “You’re too smart already.”
“For what?” Kenma pleads. “Is there something about this job that makes everyone who gets offered this position q—”
“All bets on you. You’re a great kid,” Ennoshita says quietly, intensely.
They look towards the back hallway, and the rest of the kitchen cast their eyes down firmly on their prep work as the door opens for the final entrance of the night.
...
Kozume Kenma—status: beggar. Kenma moved to Tokyo for university four years ago, but since graduation, he has yet to land a job. Finally, he’s been accepted to work as a server at one of Tokyo’s finest restaurants: Tiger’s Eye. It should be smooth sailing from here on out, but things don’t go as planned when the executive chef enters the scene.
Ten months ago, Kuroo Tetsurou, executive chef of Tiger’s Eye restaurant, received his third Michelin Star—the highest culinary honor. Since then, he’s become hotheaded, jaded, and often drunk, reviews are getting less positive, and he can’t hold down a new server to save his life. Sunday, none the wiser, Kozume Kenma enters the scene.Series

Summary
A lot's been tangling up and around in his head recently. And when he dares to pull at a single weed—just trying to get a start at deconstructing the damn thing—the whole garden seems to follow; the roses tear into his skin with their thorns, the vines wrap around his throat like snakes. It's like how you can't just check out one worm: it's the whole can or bust.
He doesn't know where he's going with these metaphors.
In which Shouyou battles with his thoughts, Kageyama confesses his fears, and things end up alright (at least, for now).

Summary
It’s not August 7th in particular that sucks so much, Tsukishima explains, bored and dispassionate with his arms crossed over his chest as he seethes at the coffee maker as if it has, personally, wronged him. It’s more that it’s a Tuesday so it’s mediocre by default. It’s a day stuck in the frustrating valley between signing his V-League contract and getting to play. The weather is viciously humid, the heat unrepentant, the tar gluing the streets of Sendai together sticks to the soles of his shoes if he’s not careful to avoid it.
Oh, and that pesky thing where it won’t stop being August 7th.

Summary
Reigen goes through life like he'd gone against the President; with confidence, a few killer moves, and a simple need to make the world better, if just for a second — and a nominal fee.
He's so brave and kind and good, and he probably never gets overwhelmed at the store when he doesn't bag his groceries fast enough.
