    Summary

    The chopping stops. Her face is unreadable, eyes steady on Tooru. "And what kind of girlfriend does he need?"

    "Someone who understands him." Easy answer. "Someone who can keep up with him. Someone who supports him."

    Auntie mulls it over. "Those sound like things you do."

    Tooru's face flushes. "Well—well, yeah, he's my best friend."

    She cocks her head at him, eyebrows raised. "So you want him to get another best friend?"

    The visceral rejection of the idea fills him so fast, he's spitting out, "Never," before he even realizes it. Hajime's his best friend. His.

    When he sees the amusement on Auntie's face, his flush deepens. "I—I mean," he fumbles, then straightens and crosses his arms, chin tilted up. "I'm irreplaceable, of course. I just mean this girl shouldn't hold him back."

    Auntie nods, letting out a drawn out, "Ah." She grabs a potato and halves it. "I see. And you're sure it's a girl?"

    "Of course, who else—" Tooru freezes. Wait.

    ***

    OR: Tooru learns he's homophobic, but only when it comes to Hajime.

    Summary

    He should make more of an effort to get along with Lu Guang, should he not? Maybe the younger man has something in common with him. Maybe he has a hidden side to him, something Cheng Xiaoshi has no idea about that would make him that much more interesting.

    Yeah, right.

    Nope, no pessimism. He had to be positive.

    So Cheng Xiaoshi throws the door open and grins.

    — ❤︎₊ ⊹ —

    In which Cheng Xiaoshi has a very interesting online friend and a not-so-interesting roommate. If he's lucky, he can manage to sort out how he really feels about both of these things.

    Summary

    "This was your plan all along, wasn't it? Fucking distracting me with this love bullshit, your pathetic sob stories, and-" Blood explodes inside Rin's mouth like a warning siren. But rage wins. Rin grips Isagi's waist where a silent battleground hides. Fingertips threaten to burn through the fabric, and color over damaged skin with indigo bruises. "Making me feel sorry for you, because of your disgusting scars."

    No matter the challenges and defeats Isagi faces on the field, the brilliant, brave fire in his eyes never goes out.

    But for the first time, Rin sees that light extinguish.
    ---
    (Isagi and Rin discover solace in each other. After the U-20 game, everything falls apart.)
