    Summary

    The fire alarm continued to blare through the building, a harsh metallic pulse that dragged everyone from sleep whether they were ready or not. Doors slammed open one after another, half-awake cleaners spilling into the hallway in mismatched clothes and tangled hair.

    “Alright… raise your hand or say here when I call your name,” Enjin said, scanning the list. August. Eishia, Zanka… Jabber” He paused. “Wait, Jabber?”

    Summary

    Zanka realizes he’s in love with Jabber right between the wig and shampoo section of the beauty supply store haphazardly organized and messy.

    Jabber’s on the other end of the phone bickering with him about choosing the wrong store, and about how they never have the right gel, and that this is most likely all of Zanka’s fault for knocking over his homemade container and Zanka is half-assedly disagreeing, riling him up as he fills the basket with the brand of loc jewelry with cuffs large enough for Jabber’s thick locs, the correct gel, that expensive Brigeo shampoo Jabber raves about and a faux silk scarf, since the last one got burned by Jabber latest experiments and Zanka stops when he thinks he spots Jabber’s loctician frowning at two containers of bobbles, remembering Jabber complaining about her being booked up and meets her in the aisle, phone between his shoulder and ear as his basket of products unbalances him.

    or

    A story that flashes between the great Janka situationship of their freshman year and the slow unfurling of their relationship in their junior year, as Zanka realizes that love has the nasty habit of sneaking up on you.

    Summary

    Cecil gives him a look, raising his right wrist and tapping it, before teleporting away. He does it casually enough that no one else in the vicinity cares. But, nobody else sees the look that Cecil gives him. The pinched brows, the growing smirk. The knowing expression of a man who is teasing.

    He’s messing with him, Mark realizes. Trying to get under his skin and put out the subtlest clues that he might be with somebody. It’s evil. Next-level psychological torture. Like he’s punishing him for listening in on the conversation a few days ago. No one would believe him if he were to say it out loud, and Cecil knows it.

    (OR: Mark finds out Cecil and Donald are dating and Cecil decides to torture him with the knowledge, "No one will ever believe you" style).

    Summary

    Jabber has a secret. He’s a huge fanboy. Specifically a fanboy for Akuta, a big well-known masked band with 4 members, Zento, Ryou, Rikin, and Eita. A faceless group. His bias? Zento. The keyboardist who feels surreal. His angelic voice. No one knows the Akuta band members' real identity. Then, Jabber meets his roommate. Zanka is cold, distant, and impossible to read. He disappears at the same time every night and comes back long after when normal people sleep. He keeps his guard up, rarely faltering. The more Zanka vanishes, the more it has Jabber thinking. Just who is his roommate? And why does something about him feel… familiar?

    Summary

    Fighting Jabber was like fighting the parts of himself he banished to the dark a long time ago. He was always envious of his free-spirited, honest nature. That's partly why he hated him so much. He was jealous. Jealous that he was able to accept himself for what he was, and freely present it to the world. Jealous of his natural talent. Jealous of his strength. He worked himself to the bone, training relentlessly just to have a shot at winning a single fight.

    "You never could just let me win, could ya?" Zanka finishes his thought out loud. A dry wheeze is his response.

    or,

    Zanka doesn't lose the fight, but he loses everything else.
