Summary
Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.
She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.
“Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.
It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.
“Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”
—
Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.

Summary
"Speaking of ateliers," Tetia said, "it's been ten years since we graduated."
"Nine," Agott corrected. "Next summer, it will be ten."
Tetia smiled. "But I might be away then! What do you say to an early reunion? Come on, Agott, it would be fun! When was the last time you saw Master Qifrey and Master Olruggio? We can ask Richeh to come, too!"
Thirteen years after Coco passed the third test and moved back to stay with her mother, Agott returns to the atelier.

Summary
As the brutal succession war aboard the Black Whale intensifies, Kurapika races against time to protect the vulnerable 14th Prince of Kakin and her mother. With enemies lurking in every corner, and allies proving just as unpredictable, he's forced into dangerous diplomacy while digging for secrets on the cold and cunning 4th Prince, whose awakening of a terrifying new ability tips the precarious balance of power. With his inner circle shrinking, and desperation mounting, Kurapika must confront a harsh truth, in this deadly game, even a sworn enemy might become a necessary ally.
Elsewhere on the ship, the infamous and cold blooded Chrollo Lucilfer charts a ruthless course toward the Upper Decks with a single goal, destroy Hisoka. But betrayal brews among the Spiders, and Chrollo may have to abandon tradition and embrace chaos to get his revenge. What his followers don’t know is that Hisoka isn’t his only target.
Now, two unstoppable forces, one driven by justice, the other by vengeance, hurtle toward each other in a collision destined to drown the voyage in blood. The stage is set, and no one will leave unchanged.

Summary
“This. This is temporary,” Kurapika reiterated in a near-hiss, an emphatic finger drawing a line in the air tracing the imaginary (and temporary) link between Kuroro and himself. “It ends the moment we get to Tserriednich.”
Kuroro had the gall to blink at him in baffled good humor. “Of course. I was never going to push for anything more.”
--In which Kurapika’s attempt to strand Kuroro on the Dark Continent failed spectacularly and they ended up having to work together to get back to civilization in one piece.

Summary
“I won't bury my people’s gods in an unmarked grave,” the words wintered Kurapika’s mouth, “or dub their tongue your language. So hear me when I say this, Lucifer: I will never forgive what you’ve done.”
Kuroro’s lungs seared, white-hot and celestial.
"Heard and heeded."
(or: kuroro's got a flower in his chest, a blooming tattoo on his skin, and an ache for a lover more tragic than he is.)

Summary
The Baxter Building had turned into one giant baby-proofed fortress, every corner locked down in the name of safety, and Johnny, a literal walking fire hazard, was suddenly banned from half the common areas.
Fed up and restless, he had nowhere left to go. So, as always, he ended up at Peter’s place.
Johnny explores feelings that are foreign to him. Denial made a person, feelings you shouldn't experience with your best friend.

Summary
The pieces are starting to come together, but several seem like they’re from a different box and the picture on the jigsaw puzzle lid is definitely not what Kei expected. “Sensei,” he says, trying to keep calm. “Kuroo-san and I, we aren’t — we’re not dating.”
Takeda stares at him.
He stares at Takeda.
Takeda turns bright red quicker than a traffic light.
**
It starts with Takeda, and goes downhill from there. Or, five times people believed they were dating (and they weren't) + 1 they really were.

Summary
“You’re fucking with me,” Kid stated without amusement, “which one is it?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Sure, you don’t. Can’t be Trafalgar, you’ve barely looked at him. It’s not penguin head, is it?”
Killer couldn’t help hunching his shoulders in something that felt dangerously like guilt. “You’re imagining things.”
“He’s the one you think has haki, right? You were watching him in the fight enough to make a coordinated attack, he used me as a guinea pig and mouthed off to you. All within two days of knowing him.”
“What does that have to do with anything?”
Kid scoffed and rolled his eyes. “How many years have we been together, you think I don’t know my best friend’s type? You like someone that can keep you on your toes, that can keep things interesting.” He scowled, all teeth and show. “But did it haveta be some scrawny little nobody?”
Four times someone noticed Killer's growing feelings for Penguin and one time he did something about it. And then did something about it.

Summary
Kiryu is on a job in Sapporo and runs into someone he wasn't expecting. Shenanigans ensue.
***
Majima took his elbows off the table and slammed it with his palm, making the beer cans and the ashtray jump, laughing maniacally.
“There's no way I'm comin' all the way out to this backwoods town without even tryin' to find my favorite dragon!”
“Speaking of that,” Kiryu said weakly, “How exactly did you find me?”
Majima's grin broadened. “Nah-ah, Kiryu-chan,” he wiggled his finger. “A guy can't go 'round revealin' his sources. Let's just say a little bird told me 'bout an apartment that the Dojima family had in Sapporo. Decided to check it out. Secured a spot in that cafe on the corner and waited for ya to show up. Honin' my detective skills.”
“So when you saw me coming,” Kiryu said slowly, trying to comprehend. “You climbed up on that roof like a cat and jumped me?”
Majima hee-hee-heed in response. “Ya gotta have that element of surprise in your life, Kiryu-chan. Otherwise, it's just plain borin’!”
Kiryu looked at him incredulously. Rumor had it that Majima was batshit crazy. He was starting to believe it.

Summary
The broken parts of his personality stain across polished wooden floors, slipping through his fingers like sand, like blood, when he tries to force the jagged edges of himself into something that looks like a person.
The most he ever manages is the roughened, snarling shape of a maddened dog.
And some days, it’s even less than that.
He survives.
It’s enough.

They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. It seemed like Majima was hell bent on testing that theory.
(aka five times Majima treated Kiryu, and one time where Kiryu paid it back in full.)

Summary
Once they were around the corner and out of sight from the street, Majima slammed his back into a wall, fists balled in his lapels. Kiryu grunted as his head bounced off the rough concrete. He expected a punch to come next, or some smart-mouthed quip, but was entirely unprepared to see Majima staring down at him in anger, yes, but something else, too. Something he’d seen on full display the night before: a sharp, predatory hunger.
“Y’know,” Majima growled, “I got shit t’ do today. I’m a busy fuckin’ man. I got a family t’ run and deals t’ make an’ places t’ fuckin’ be but all I can think about, Kiryu-chan, is you.”
Started as a one shot, spiraled out of control. Follows the Yakuza Kiwami 1 plot for the most part. Mostly canon-compliant, some events have been added, moved, or changed for artistic license. Spoilers for Yakuza Kiwami 1 and some light spoilers for Yakuza 0.

Things are going fine, until Kiryu starts offering to buy him drinks and people keep mistaking them for a couple. Majima was starting to think that giant squid hadn’t been so bad, after all.
