    Summary

    Miles laughs, and catches himself twisting the corners of his napkin in anticipation. Michelle is stalling, and he has always found her gaze too penetrating to meet dead on. Still. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

    “You heard anything about Peter lately?” He asks quietly.

    The laser-gaze across the table shuts down for a fifteen and a smoke.

    “Not much, not for a while. His aunt passed,” Michelle says tonelessly.

     

    (Team Red falls apart. Miles tries to glue it back together.)

    Summary

    “Alright,” Eddie shrugs, laissez-faire. He pulls Buck’s plate to the center of the table; pushes his own forward in kind. Then he begins a drawn-out circus routine of plucking an olive at a time up and out of the bowl and plopping them onto their respective dishes, one by one.

    The delicate, repetitive movement of Eddie’s pinched fingers reminds Buck of picking the petals off of flowers. He loves me. He loves me not. He love—

    An olive hits him square in the forehead.

    “There,” Eddie says, resolute, as the pitted projectile tumbles to the ground at Buck’s feet. “Equal treatment.”

    Or: Buck, Eddie, and the olive theory. Well, in theory.

    Summary

    Running to the frontlines from a childhood he never had. Taking a bat to the wall with his son in the next room. Having an affair with the spitting image of his dead wife.

    Eddie knows he’s never been good at grieving, knows he’s never been good at losing what little he allows for himself in the first place. This is why he also knows his coping mechanisms can’t possibly get any worse.

    Buck, as he so often does, makes him reevaluate his assumptions.

    Evan Buckley dies behind a wall of glass. It’s a shame that when he’s revived not three minutes later, no one is informed.

    Summary

    Their lips pull apart with a wet smack. They don’t move far, heads resting on the pillow, a close-up shot of the dreamy expression spreading across Eddie’s face. Buck thinks maybe he can blame the late hour for his lack of filter, because he hasn’t even really processed the thought before he blurts out, “can I be the one to propose?”
    -----
    The universe can interfere all it wants. Buck knows he and Eddie are meant to be together.

    Summary

    No one on the team has mentioned it to him yet, and he prefers to keep it that way. They likely don’t remember that he and Oikawa Tooru, #13 of the Men’s Argentina National Volleyball Team, played on the same team in high school. And even if they do, they certainly wouldn’t know that they were closer than just the ace and his setter.

    If God truly loves him, his team will stay both ignorant and away from him.

    When Miya Atsumu sits down next to him, propping his chin on the heel of his hand and staring at him with an unnervingly knowledgeable gaze, Iwaizumi knows that God has forsaken him.

    Or; it's the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics, and the Volleyball Olympic gold matchup is between Argentina and Japan. Iwaizumi Hajime, the athletic trainer for the Japanese Men's National Volleyball Team, observes the #13 Argentinian setter from afar. He tells his team that he doesn't know Oikawa Tooru as well as he used to, and he tells himself that the concern he feels for his estranged best friend is just his mind playing cruel tricks.

    Until Sakusa Kiyoomi, outside hitter for Team Japan, convinces him otherwise.
