Summary
Unable to take the screams anymore, Kiyoomi stepped out from his hiding place in an act of self-sacrifice, demanding that the bandits stop. As the only omega in the party – and the only royal, he knew he was worth so much more than the rest.
An argument ensued, some declaring it would be risky to kidnap a prince, others stating he could be worth something as ransom. A sword is pressed to his throat and he lowered himself to his knees, silently praying they would spare him.
The last thing he saw before a dirty sack was thrust over his head was a head of sandy blond hair and brown lidded eyes that looked at him almost guiltily.

Summary
The broadcast ends with no mention of Atsumu and in his frustration, Osamu smashes his fist against the worktop and curses loudly. The radio clatters to the floor and Suna flinches, tense as Osamu stomps over to the living area. For a moment he thinks Suna is about to crack a joke from the way he opens his mouth and Osamu is three seconds from pummelling him against his tool rack, until his expression softens in a way that is reserved for Osamu’s eyes only.
“So, you’re missing someone.”

Until his life is changed by an unlikely partnership in the form of a 19 year old kid, Suna, and the news that his long-lost twin has been located deep in the ‘no man’s land’ of Japan. For Osamu, the odds are against him in the race to save the ones he loves).

Summary
"Alright, hold on a second. Let me take a guess. You just arrived in the big city, completely clueless, and you went from being part of the majority to a mere subpopulation in just a few hours. You said goodbye to your seaside home to end up in the equivalent of a broom closet with not much more to your name than a shipwrecked sailor, am I right?"
Kuroo Tetsuro, 22 years old, like his entire family and every person he has ever met, is a beta. When he arrives in Tokyo, the only place in the country where betas are just a mere subpopulation among others, he naively believes that statistics won’t change much in his life. Gross miscalculation on his part, and he quickly realizes it when he is thrust into a completely unfamiliar world governed by an absurd set of rules, where he has to question everything he ever knew, about justice, love, and himself.- Language:

Summary
When Bokuto moved from Tokyo to the mountains outside Kyoto for college, he'd been planning to make new friends, play volleyball, and maybe ask out the very cute setter on his new team. He had not been expecting the crazy superstitions, constant ghost stories, and how seriously they took Halloween.
He definitely had not been expecting to (accidentally!) resurrect one of the three great oni of Japanese history because he wanted to look cool.
That wasn't in the plan, but at least when Halloween gets unexpectedly crazy, Bokuto had his best friends by his side.
or,
A Hocus Pocus inspired Halloween special featuring Bokuaka, shapeshifting cats, too many ghosts, and a quest to make sure an ancient demon doesn't come back to life permanently.

Summary
“You won’t forget about me when you make all these shiny new college friends, right?”
He played it off as a casual question, but Kenma sensed the underlying seriousness in the almost delicate way he asked—vulnerability seeping through his voice despite the attempted nonchalant delivery.
“I couldn’t even if I tried,” he admitted as his head lay on Kuroo’s chest, the older man rubbing his back like a cat. It was intimate moments like this that made Kenma question everything, having to remind himself that they were just friends.
Kenma has depended on Kuroo all his life—to feel comfortable, to make friends, to be understood. Until he realizes that he’s gay, and that he has to go on this journey of self-discovery himself, lest his secret feelings for his straight best friend make things even harder.
So he ventures out to college on his own in an attempt to understand himself and his sexuality, and to prove to himself that he didn’t need Kuroo by his side to do it (also to tamp down his feelings for the guy, but that proves to be much more difficult).
It makes him feel freer than he thought, and it makes Kuroo feel a little sidelined. Realizations ensue.

Summary
Kuroo was completely 100% sure that his last winter break trip in college was going to be the most amazing time ever - a week full of skiing, relaxing in hot spring pools, and ample opportunities to confess to the man he'd had a crush on for years.
The only way their vacation could possibly go wrong was if something wild happened like their ryokan being haunted by a magical spirit.
And really, what were the odds of that?

“It was a strange night for both of us. It was also a misfortune on my part to enter a stall that couldn’t be locked.”

Summary
After noticing that Omega Kageyama has it bad for Alpha Hinata, pining Omega Sakusa offers a solution: They can make their Alphas jealous by fake dating each other.
“For fuck’s sake, Kageyama.” Sakusa shook his head, his eyes still on Hinata. “I don’t want your Alpha.”
“He’s not mine.”
“Do you want him to be?”
The question hung in the air like a spike about to end the match. A second passed, an eternity in frozen time.
“Yes.”
Tobio was surprised at the syllable that came from his lips, a whispered secret he’d kept even from himself.
“There’s a way to make it happen.” Sakusa finally turned in his direction. His pupils were dilated, and Tobio could smell a hint of fresh rain, and something herbal beneath that. Rosemary? Sage? He inhaled deeply, trying to figure it out the source of the aroma. Sakusa shivered. “Please… stop scenting me.”

Summary
Retired from volleyball, married, parents to two kids, 55-year-olds Kiyoomi and Atsumu follow their best friends the Iwaizumis to Palm Springs. In between reminiscences of the past thirty years spent together, they have adventures in gardening, competitions in water aerobics, and fights over groceries.
“Cucumbers look good,” Atsumu said, squinting at the closest wooden box.
“Those are zucchini,” Kiyoomi replied. “Why aren’t you wearing your glasses?”
“Don’t need ‘em,” Atsumu grumbled.
“That’s not what the eye doctor said.” It was a familiar argument. Atsumu didn’t wear his glasses unless he absolutely had to. Which was a shame, because they looked so nice on him. Made him look distinguished.
“They make me look old.”
“You are old,” Kiyoomi said, without malice or bite. It wasn’t an insult, simply a fact. Atsumu wasn’t alone in that fact, they were both old. Retired in a desert oasis, living their best lives. Old was peaceful. Old was fun.

Summary
They used to be lovers, but now Miya Atsumu and Sakusa Kiyoomi won't even talk to each other. At a gala celebrating a hundred years of the JVA, an opportunity to reconnect presents itself. Will they seize the moment? Or keep driving everyone around them to drink?
“Y’were right, ‘Toya. The fuckin’ morons are drivin’ us both nuts.”
“I didn’t even say anything about what Kiyo’s up to.”
“Y’don’t have to. The daggers he’s throwin’ at our table are nice and sharp. Not even directed at me and I’m gettin’ nicked.”
Motoya barked a laugh. He waved the bartender over a second time. “Two vodka tonics please. Make ‘em doubles.”
“Y’gonna get him drunk?”
“Kiyoomi doesn’t get drunk,” Motoya sighed. “He just gets mean.”
“And two more tequilas.”
“Y’gonna get me drunk?”
Osamu smiled. “I think it would help all of this go down a bit easier if we were both ridin’ a nice buzz.”
When the bartender returned with their drinks, Motoya raised his in a toast. “To dealing with these two idiots.”
Osamu clinked their glasses together.

Summary
Sakusa Kiyoomi is stupid. He's a ruthless, reckless, stupid idiot.
That’s what Atsumu is muttering to himself as he walks to the pit box, minutes after losing the second race of the season.
Oh, right. Minutes after running Sakusa over as well.
Apparently he almost ran over his head and could’ve killed him or something. But honestly it wasn't even that big of a deal and Sakusa was fine. He wasn’t even injured!
Okay, well, it’s not like Atsumu checked if he was injured after running his rear wheel over his head and wrecking his teammate’s car, but considering Sakusa was walking to the pit box right in front of him, he was likely doing alright.
──────
or: Atsumu Miya is trying to win his first Formula One World Champion title, but his annoyingly hot teammate keeps distracting him and making him want to punch his face.

Summary
In the bustling Mercedes garage, the atmosphere was charged with anticipation for the upcoming race. Sakusa Kiyoomi, known for his focused and meticulous nature, was deep in concentration, running through his final checks. Yet, despite his composed exterior, occasional mutters about Atsumu’s antics slipped from his lips, a testament to the ongoing tension between the two rivals.
Bokuto, one of the engineers, observed Sakusa with a bemused expression. "They're literally flirting," he remarked with a chuckle, shaking his head at the subtle exchanges he witnessed between Sakusa and Atsumu, even from a distance.
Komori, Sakusa's cousin and the team's second driver, shot Bokuto a sharp look. "Don't let him hear you say that," he cautioned, his tone laced with concern. "You know how Kiyoomi gets."
