“No,” Iwaizumi says again. “You were always going to go.” “Yes,” Oikawa says slowly. They’ve known this since they were eight years old, when they saw that match that cemented Blanco as Oikawa’s idol. They’ve known this since Coach Irihata gave Oikawa Blanco’s email their first year of high school and vouched for his prowess on the court. Since Oikawa specifically chose this university for its sister school in Argentina. It was just dumb luck the school had a strong sports science program for Iwaizumi too. “Iwa-chan,” Oikawa starts. “Congratulations,” Iwaizumi says stiffly.
Iwaizumi's always known about Oikawa's Argentinian dream, so it shouldn't be a surprise when Oikawa's accepted into a study abroad program there. But Iwaizumi and Oikawa have been together since they were in diapers, and the prospect of a life without Oikawa is suddenly more than Iwaizumi can bear.

CHAPTER SEVEN IS UP
“How are you? Really?”
“I just told you.”
Sharp black slivers pin him in place as his friend looks at him again. “I’m not Iwaizumi,” Matsukawa says slowly. “I can’t discern twenty layers of hidden meaning just by looking at you.” His lips press together in a thin line. “I’d appreciate if you were honest with me.
“So I’m going to ask you again, and you’re not going to bullshit me this time.” Matsukawa is calm, but his eyes betray a somberness Oikawa’s never seen before. “How are you really doing, Oikawa?”
Hey guys! If you’re looking for something to read, here’s part one of some WoW fics, written by me, that you might enjoy.
Tales From Silvermoon
This is the series these fics are under. They’re in no particular unless otherwise noted. Mind the tags, which is where things get trippy and commentator-y.

I had a person leave a comment on my fanfic today. They didn’t mention anything about the writing, the characterization, or the plot.
It said “this isn’t canon.”

No shit, Sherlock???
Hey y’all, I’m here to post about my own fics! Take a looksee, see if anything piques your interest.
C’est la Vie 5
A series with long, overarching plots, C'est La Vie 5 is the product of years of character retooling, research, and refining. What starts with the traumatic death of the fathers of Amamiya Ren, Futaba, and Shinya leads into the discovery of a terrible family secret. The Amamiya patriarchs touched many lives throughout the series, notably Arisato Minako, herself struggling with an ailing brother. Her boyfriend is hiding secrets of his own about his former life, and those secrets are starting to come out of the shadows. Aragaki Shinjiro left that life behind, however, and is not at all interested in former gang member Urameshi Yuusuke’s seeking a job at the LGBTQ haven the Stray Sheep in a seemingly genuine attempt to turn his life around. All Nishikado Sojiro wants to do is fix his two best friends up but they're both being stupidly difficult about it, to the point where even shy Kuragi Machi has to say something to them. Meanwhile, a series of murders around Tokyo has Commissioner Sato Makoto more on edge than her boss's pressures on her to perform, because they have no leads and a growing pile of bodies.
Book One: Blue Flower
Ren's parents have died in a car accident and now he must take in his siblings Futaba and Shinya. While balancing the sudden imposition and his new role as head of the family, he must also contend with his demanding job as a member of the Tokyo police force, his parents' businesses and their funeral, and his own feelings of grief. Futaba has become a shut in and Shinya is bordering on delinquency. His boyfriend Ryuuji is his rock, but Ryuuji has a secret of his own that he feels he now can't burden Ren with (because who drops a bomb on a man whose parents just died?)
Shinjiro is keeping dark secrets from Minako, concerned she’s already pushed to the brink. A murderer stalks Tokyo and the police have no leads, leaving Makoto two steps shy of a mental breakdown and Ren with more work than he can handle. Everything had been so much easier when his parents were still alive.
Book Two: Secret Things
Minako is trying desperately to keep herself together after the death of her father figure Amamiya Jun. But her brother is very sick and she's deeply in denial, and Shinjiro - her rock - is keeping secrets himself. Shinjiro is worried for her, and his friends Akihiko and Naoto are worried for HIM as his health worsens. Meanwhile, Minako's neglected friends are going through issues of their own: Hina has been in a deep depression since running across her abusive ex-boyfriend, and Sojirou reluctantly teams up with Jaekyung and Komaki to help.
The murder spree in Tokyo may have slowed to a crawl, but Mikasa's life is far from peaceful as her family drops a bombshell on her that rocks the very foundation of who she is. Unable to keep busy and keep her mind off of it with work, she seeks solace at Murakawa Shrine and old friends.
