Summary
Through him, Keiji realizes once they’re close, the dark looming shapes of the cliffs pressing closer as the road narrows between them. Miya hadn’t been staring at him at the train station; he was staring through him. Like he’d been trying to imagine the landscape back into place without Keiji interrupting it. Like Keiji wasn’t there at all.
On coming and going, and going.

Summary
In the end, Gao Tu takes the coward’s way out. He waits until Shen Wenlang is in a meeting on Friday afternoon to drop the envelope on his desk. Then he goes home.
He makes it through his front door before the calls start. He cancels three calls from Shen Wenlang and then gives up and turns off his phone. A moment later, the anxiety hits him and nausea curdles his stomach.

Summary
Mihawk knew from the moment he saw Shanks Akagami walk in on his first day at the office wearing flip-flops and swaggering in cargo shorts, that the charismatic redhead would prove to be nothing but trouble. Of course, Mihawk is rarely—if ever—wrong, and Shanks proves to be exactly what Mihawk expects: trouble.
Irresistible, cocky, and good-looking trouble.
Yet, to Mihawk’s credit, he’s never shied away from a challenge, and he certainly won’t cower in the face of a man who smiles brighter than the sun and acts as if he’s god’s gift to man. If anything, Mihawk has something to prove, and it’s that he will not be just another among many who fall for Akagami’s charms. It doesn’t matter how hot Shanks is, or how intently he stares, or how infuriatingly easy it is for Shanks to dig under Mihawk’s skin—Mihawk will not be swayed.
Except, being swayed is the least of Mihawk’s concerns, especially when Shanks decides to rock his entire world instead.

Summary
“Sanji,” Nami repeats again, and Sanji swallows past the words still trying to come out as she reaches out and gently takes his arm with a delicate hand, “maybe… maybe this is less about what Zoro is doing, and more about what you’re feeling?”
He pauses, staring at her with wide eyes, and he can’t help the way the blood starts to rush in his ears.
Or, five times Zoro kisses Sanji, and the one time Sanji kisses Zoro.

Summary
“Well, it’s not Nami, obviously,” Sanji reasons out loud. “You two are like siblings. And as lovely as Robin-chan is, she cannot possibly be your type.” Zoro had phrased it in a way hinting at unrequited love, which means Hiyori’s out too – that woman was practically throwing herself at him every time they were in the same room. “Oh, what was that pink-haired darling’s name? Perona, no? She–”
“Cook,” Zoro deadpans, eye narrowed. “If you want to guess sometime this century, you need to stop listing women.”
———
In which Sanji gets captured by pirate hunters, Zoro is in the right place at the right time, and one thing leads to another. You know how it is.

Summary
Zoro just crosses his arms in return, clearly defiant. “Captains orders.”
A muscle twitches in Sanji’s jaw. “Don’t be an idiot.”
Zoro’s eye narrows. “Captains orders.”
Sanji knows a losing battle when he sees one, but he’s never gone down without a fight. “I will not share a bed with you,” he hisses, hands tightening into fists.
Or, five times Zoro and Sanji sleep together... and the one time they don't

Summary
When Oikawa first put together the motorcycle gang, Iwaizumi thought it was stupid. Now, several years later, the best days of his life are when he's on the road, lost in the rush of the wind and the thrill of the ride. It's by chance that he meets a fellow biker on a solo ride, and the two of them get along a little too well.
Everything is great until Iwaizumi discovers Semi Eita is a member of Shiratorizawa, a rival biker gang that he has been conditioned to despise. They agree it's in their best interest to stop seeing each other before anyone discovers the affair.
As it turns out, that's easier said than done.

Summary
Shouto knows that the appropriate thing to do now is to pull his head out of the cupboard, stand up, and explain to Bakugou that he’s looking for the first aid kit. He also knows that if he does that, Bakugou will most likely let go of his hand. And – he doesn’t want that.
OR
Todoroki gets hit with a quirk that makes him sick unless a particular person is touching him. And that particular person just happens to be Bakugou Katsuki.

Summary
When Kirishima and Kaminari finally start dating in their second year, their public displays of affection are as anyone expects: loud (Kirishima), sometimes crass (Kaminari), and borderline obnoxious (both). If there are quiet moments between the two, they are eclipsed by the boisterous laughter and dirty jokes.
However, their classmates are nothing if not observant.
Or: a collection of drabbles following 1-A’s interactions with their favorite condiment couple—observing the small gestures, soft gazes, and careful hands.

Summary
“It’s great timing that you moved here. Word is you recently married your long distance partner, congratulations."
Minghao starts sweating. Is it normal to congratulate people on a new marriage, or is his boss suspicious of the serendipitous nature of his visa? He straightens up and tries to arrange his face into something lovestruck.
“Thanks.” He smiles big. “I really love him. The whole thing was so... “ Clinical. “Romantic.”
He thinks of how Mingyu slammed the door last night but snuck out early this morning without so much as a note. They haven’t even exchanged phone numbers yet.

Summary
Had I known the new anemo archon would be so infuriating, I would have banned every gust of wind from the nation.
My dearest god of contracts, you ought to know better than to make promises like that!
Morax takes the wine like it is poison. Surrender is apparent in his voice. A contract in full, then. I drink from this bottle, and you leave me be for the next fifty years.
Be sure to enjoy it in its entirety.
Morax looks at him with thinly-veiled disgust. The fifty years begins now.
(Or: the conversations they have over the years.)

After a mission in Mexico goes wrong, SHIELD Agents Barnes and Rogers are given the job of hunting down the notorious Hawkeye and the Black Widow, the only problem being: no one even knows what they look like.
On the other side of the law, Clint's enjoying messing with their new SHIELD shadows, especially seeing how close he can get to Agent Barnes without him realising, but he makes the mistake of getting attached, and that makes everything more complicated.
