    Summary

    !!-HIATUS-!!

    Alexis is losing his hearing, but he refuses to lose himself. As Ménière's disease pushes him toward deafness, he fights to rebuild his place on the field, and in a world that no longer sounds the same.

    Michael, who once cast him aside, watches as Alexis grows stronger in ways he never expected. But strength doesn’t mean unbreakable, and when Alexis reaches his lowest, Michael is forced to confront the silence. Not just in Alexis, but within himself.

    Because love doesn’t need words. And maybe, it never did.

    Summary

    Isagi and his stupid, crazy, insane eyes that see right through him like he’s a glass house. They're the ocean at the drop of a cliff ledge: Dangerous. Beckoning. Fatal. Rin wants to kill him, or something—destroy Isagi before he can destroy Rin. Not that Isagi ever could, of course.

    Thoughtfully, Sae says, “You can’t just be normal about things. It’s always indifference or obsession.”

    After suffering a grueling defeat on the national stage, Itoshi Rin enters the off-season plagued with bloodlust—the next time he faces his long-standing rival on the pitch, Isagi Yoichi, he promises to devour him whole.

    That was the plan, at least, but their reunion arrives much sooner. When he and Isagi Yoichi cross paths again, it’s at the Wellness Studio he does yoga classes at. Without the distance of the game between them, Rin realizes how thin the line between love and hate really is.

    or: Rin does yoga. Isagi takes up pottery. Things happen.

    Summary

    At school, Itoshi Rin is the model student: class representative, top grades, and captain of the soccer team. Unfortunately, his pragmatism and bluntness have left him with few friends, as his straightforward nature often intimidates his peers. However, his well-ordered life turns upside down when he notices Isagi Yoichi, the new student who seems too cute for his own good.

    or

    Rin comes to terms with the fact that if God wanted you to hate gay people, he wouldn't have made them so hot.

    Summary

    Struggling for air, Ryuusei’s hand shot up to Sae’s pale, bare shoulder, pressing firmly, nails digging slightly, an attempt to show the whole thing was getting too much for him to handle, despite the teasing smirk still on his face.

    “When I give an order, you follow it. Got it, demon?” Sae murmured, leaning just slightly closer, their bodies tense, their faces mere inches apart. The restrictive weight of Sae's palm against Ryuusei’s throat kept him pinned, yet close enough to feel every subtle motion.

    “Fuck, Sae-chan… yeah, I got it,” Ryuusei groaned, every nerve on fire, struggling to keep his voice steady. “But I don’t think you’re squeezing hard enough.”

     —

    What was supposed to be just a month in Sae's homeland to handle the monotonous bureaucracy of his passport renewal unfolded instead into a pink hell called Shidou Ryuusei, who stubbornly refused to give him any peace.

    Or Sae is the new PXG's stand-in coach and Shidou is thrilled about it.

    amazing ryusae. i like when canon compliant stories like this ACTUALLY make sense as a possibility. Ryusei not being dumbed fown to a hypersexual horny beast, and sae not being assumed as a cold hearted monster of a brother. the smut tags alr hav me barking yea we love a switch every now and then!!

    Summary

    Fresh out of school and on summer break leading up to his last year of high school, Itoshi Rin is set to spend these next three and a half months of his break shutting out the entire world, and doing what he does best: oil painting.
    But Sae, one last time, gives a shake of his head. “You’re going to the Isagi household.”
    "I'm going to what?"

    Out go his initial plans to oil paint all summer and with Sae's force, Rin happens to take up a gardening job at the friendly Isagi household. The son, however, is a total mystery. As long as Rin does his job and doesn't get close with him, then it should be fine, right?

    He never expected that upon meeting Isagi, feelings begin to swell up like a festering, raw wound. Unfortunately, whether Rin likes it or not, things start to happen between them.

    absolutely amazing. this writer portrays emotional and physical atmosphere so well. i like how rin isnt a trustwotthy active voice and makes the reader develop with him. isagi THANKFULLY isnt solely feminised to some soft pushover twink bc of his love for something viewed as feminine. so consistent and amazingly planned. PLS DONT LET ISAGI DIEEEEE. the intros to the chaps make me so scared. "that summer i felt..." like bro stop speaking in that tense 🥹🥹
