    Summary

    And, oh.

    Langa’s falling in love with Reki. Reki, his snowboarding instructing partner, his partner who speaks his home language and picks him up for work every morning and wears his clothes, his partner who laughs louder than anyone Langa’s ever met, who gives the best hugs, who always says Langa’s name like he can’t keep a smile out of his voice. Langa’s falling in love with Reki, and he swallows again, because everything makes sense now. The sweaty hands, the urge to run his fingers through Reki’s snow-damp hair, the warm feeling spreading through his heart whenever Reki wears his scarf, and Langa can feel his heart stumbling in his chest because oh, he’s — he’s in trouble.

     

    (langa and reki meet as snowboarding co-instructors and tumble into love over clothes sharing, cuddling, and — after a little pining — accidentally getting caught in the snow <3)

    Summary

    In the creative writing class he took his third year of high school, Daichi had been assigned what his teacher called a “six word memoir.” The prompt was simple enough. Jam your life’s story in a simple sentence fragment. Summarize yourself.

    Hemingway had famously written, “For sale: baby shoes, never worn” and nearly dissolved his readers to empathetic tears.

    Daichi had infamously written, “I haven’t done anything interesting, sorry” and nearly brought the teacher to frustrated tears.

    In which economics student Sawamura “Perfect Attendance” Daichi meets mysterious social activist “Mister Refreshing” at a protest on the quad, good things happen at a party, bad things happen to Daichi’s GPA, and self-proclaimed “party scientist” Kuroo Tetsurou knows everyone.

    Summary

    The life of a rookie goes like this: One day you're being called up to the NHL, the next you're winning a Stanley Cup. In between, you have to learn how to be a person first and a hockey player second. Thank God for the Ottawa Centaurs.

    OR: The Ottawa Centaur rookies find their place on their team.

    Summary

    To be clear, Ilya is grateful the rookies aren’t growing up the way he did in the NHL. Ilya took the hazing to the chin – humiliation rituals, beat downs, grueling practices to prove he could “hang” with the big guns on the team.

    That being said, there’s still some part of Ilya that balks at the request by the gaggle of rookies to watch The Iron Giant, a veritable children’s movie at the team’s latest movie night.

    OR: Five times Shane and Ilya were the support system for the Centaur rookies they dreamed of having when they were younger.

    Summary

    “Where are you going?”

    “To the arena, Hollander. We are playing a game in three hours.”

    “That’s tomorrow, Rozanov,” Hollander says, smirking like Ilya might be fucking with him and he wants to make sure he’s in on the joke. He looks behind and around him. “Um, can I come inside?”

    “Hollander, we have game today. You were here yesterday.”

    Hollander is striding toward his kitchen, looking over his shoulder at Ilya like he’s getting tired of the joke. “Very funny. I was in Montreal yesterday, Rozanov.”

    “Hollander.” Ilya goes to stand in front of him. Hollander’s eyes flicker up and down his body the way that Ilya usually craves, but is rather unwelcome right now. “Today is Thursday. Game is today. Yesterday, you came to my house. We ate tuna melts, watched Buffalo game. Then, you left.”

    “Rozanov, it’s Wednesday morning. And I’ve never been to your house before.”

    “Hollander…”

    “Look at your phone if you don’t believe me.”

    Ilya snorts like a bull and pulls his phone out of his pocket, swipes down on the screen to look at the date.

    Wednesday, November 9th.


    Or: Ilya Rozanov in Groundhog Day!
