    Summary

    The first time it happens, it doesn’t really register in Kazuya’s mind that it’s happening. And the only reason why he doesn’t register it is because he’s too busy being annoyed about it.

    The next few times though? You can bet that he registers those. Not in a good way though.

    —OR—

    5 times that Sawamura wraps his arm around Miyuki’s waist but Miyuki is missing the context, and the 1 time he understands

    Summary

    Now, Eijun, his mother had told him, serious in a way she rarely was, round face kind and young. He gets his eyes from her, but where hers are like a dawning sun, his are all fire. If it’s there for the taking, isn’t it your responsibility to do so?

    Anyone who feels responsibility isn’t free. But Eijun doesn’t know how to be afraid, so he isn’t.

    (His heart may be twice as big as his lungs and sturdy, but it’s still growing into its spaces, finding its footing when it comes to things that are complicated. Eijun just doesn’t know how to not love something with all he is.)

     

    Or, Sawamura Eijun learns how to stand on his own two legs, falls, and gets back up again. Featuring matters of heart, what makes a team, and how one Miyuki Kazuya somehow becomes part of it all.

    Miyuki smiles at Kuramochi, and Eijun can hear him audibly gulp. It’s the kind of smile Miyuki saves for when they win a game by a landslide, or when he calls a miracle play, or hits a home run: lopsided, teeth bared, a little too wide for his face in a way that makes his glasses look crooked on his nose. He looks unhinged.

    He also looks sort of hot, but Eijun gathers that thought with two of his metaphorical hands, and places it inside the metaphorical “come back to later” box in his chest.

    Summary

    Post Ichidai game - As Sawamura begins to thrive and show himself to be a reliable candidate for the ace, Kuramochi begins to notice how poorly their captain is coming to terms with the fact that the pitcher who once relied on him no longer needs him.

    Misawa but Miyuki is spiraling about not being able to catch for Sawamura while he's achieving success after success

    Mostly canon compliant but essentially takes place 'behind the scenes' of the main plot

    “You know that face I make?”

    Honestly, when the southpaw had come out in the middle of the Teito game with that stupid, baffling face, Kazuya had been terrified. Even if Eijun was doing better, he still had the yips, couldn’t throw inside pitches, hadn’t really played since that brutal Yakushi game, and on top of everything, it was raining . And then he made that dumb face. It was the weirdest, most unreadable facade Kazuya had ever seen and then Eijun had been throwing crazy fucking pitches from the start and Kazuya could tell the batters were shitting their pants.

    So yeah. Kazuya knew that dumb face Eijun made.

    Summary

    It's getting harder to ignore, the fact that he's fond of Sawamura, that he thinks of him and the weight of the word like in the same sentence all too often.

    Summary

    Miyuki, in his usual manner, just does things to have fun. Things like asking Sawamura to be his boyfriend, for example. Not as a prank, but because it seems like a fun thing to do.
