Summary
That split second of clarity before Tobio tosses a volleyball—he thinks that is what he’ll liken this moment to. When you know that time is moving, but here it stops for you. He holds this image close—colours and landscapes and Shouyou’s fiery smile set against an aurelian ether—and presses it to his chest like a balm, letting its warmth seep into his bloodstream.
For the length of a song, Tobio experiences what it's like to move outside of time, outside of space.
If a writer falls in love with you, you can never die.

Summary
When two stars meet out in space, they either merge together to form something bigger, something new, or shatter into an infinity worth of shiny stardust.
Atsumu figures out early on that he and Sakusa were just like that, two stars colliding headfirst into each other in an ever-expanding universe. He’s still waiting to see if they’re about to become better—or burn out in supernova together.

Summary
Sometimes you have to make choices you don’t like, or will regret into countless sleepless nights, and sometimes you’re just following orders. But if the other option is certain death for your entire species, you will make those decisions. That’s what it means to be a pilot.
…Or so Daichi and Sugawara keep telling themselves as they activate the two least compatible recruits for the much-needed third Jaeger assist. The kaiju are learning, evolving, and coming in faster than anyone is comfortable with, and the only option left is to evolve with them. Who knows? Maybe the rookies will be the ones to turn the tide of the war.

Summary
“What unites both generations [OF ASIAN AMERICANS], Eng and Han suggest, is a kind of linguistic lack, a missing vocabulary—a paucity of stories that they might tell themselves about where they are going, and what it would mean to feel whole.”
Kiyoomi Sakusa has spent the last seventeen years believing he is boring. He has never met anyone inclined to challenge this belief.

"What happens to the stories we never tell our children? What happens to the dreams our parents never pursued? Do these things just vaporize, or do they linger like matter—unable to be destroyed?"

"Here are Miya Atsumu and Sakusa Kiyoomi. They are Japanese American boys, both everything and nothing alike. They are unpaid, overworked translators, dear friends of liminal spaces, and the culmination of their parents’ barely-beating dreams. They are still learning how to forgive their families, and themselves too. But they will learn.
They will learn. "

sakusa and atsumu are asian-american and live within a special liminal space.
