Summary
“There are plenty of fish in the sea,” is a saying Bokuto grew up hearing.
He thinks Atsumu should stop fishing.
Swimming?
Whatever. The point is, Atsumu should maybe stop seeking out other fish. Maybe he could settle for a nice bit of seaweed. Pretty in the sunlight. Attached to something sturdy. Not a fucking loser.

Or: Five times everyone was right about Atsumu’s horrible taste in men, and the time he finally got it right.Series

Summary
Atsumu had been subject to a bunch of frightening things over the course of his life. Watching crimson blood seep out of someone’s neck in uneven spurts and bursts might’ve just taken the top spot, however.
He should’ve known something was off. No normal person acted like that. By the time birds were chirping and the sun was rising, Atsumu hadn’t gotten a wink of sleep.
But he’d looked through all the newspapers he’d read since moving here, instead. And there it was, in bright, bold letters. Suspected vampire activity in the area. He’d brushed it off as nonsense back then. After all, who would even believe such things? Somebody smarter than Atsumu, that’s who.

Summary
“Miya Atsumu,” Doctor Akaho said with the bored annoyance of sarcasm-driven intellectuals everywhere. “Five times, not enough. He goes for a sixth round of hanahaki and still refuses to take it seriously.”

Summary
It starts small— a volleyball camp in his hometown, an adrenaline rush, a dream— and it becomes something much too big for two hands to hold.
Or, Atsumu Miya, from glitter to gold.

Summary
"Why are you being so accusatory? You do this"—Sakusa twirls a lock of Atsumu's hair around his finger—"to me all the time."
"But it's different when I do it," Atsumu insists, "'cause I wanna."
Sakusa turns Atsumu's head to look him dead in the eye. "Who says I don't want to?"
Atsumu swallows thickly. Shit. He's once again run his big, fat mouth and pissed Sakusa off. But because he's an obstinate bastard who hates to feel like he's lost, he presses on:
"I'm just sayin' that ya don't hafta do anything that makes you uncomfortable—"
"Stop putting words in my mouth!" Sakusa snaps, and Atsumu's eyes widen.
The silence that follows is deafening.
Or: Atsumu is intimately familiar with giving away his love, but, with Sakusa, finds receiving it to be an entirely different matter.

Summary
“Why am I a dude, Samu? Like, why is that a thing?” He blurted out, and he found himself immediately cringing at how weird of a question it seemed to be out loud. Osamu gave him an odd sort of look.

Summary
Ever since he was a child, Atsumu knew fate liked laughing in his face. From having an annoying twin to being hated by people who didn’t even try to get on his level in volleyball, he thought he was ready for anything.
What he didn’t expect however was to be thrown into the world of heats and ruts as the one secondary gender which had neither.
Or, when Miya Atsumu thought life couldn’t get worse, but then he presented as a beta.

Summary
Something’s up with Osamu, and Atsumu Miya isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. He definitely tries, but Osamu’s ‘secret’ is the last thing he’d expected.
Or,
Osamu and Atsumu’s Future Talk TM, in which Atsumu realizes that his dream isn’t really Osamu’s, too.

Summary
Atsumu knew he was sick the minute he woke up; the ever-familiar feeling of prickly palms and pounding headache was enough to convince him of that. But with the rest of the MSBY out on vacation, Atsumu is all on his own. Except he's not alone. When Sakusa shows up on his doorstep with a container of soup and looking like he's about to enter a radiation zone, Atsumu knows he's in for trouble. Astumu quickly begins to struggle to balance being sick, trying his best to keep his golden image for his Omi Omi, and yet also politely keep poor germaphobic Sakusa as far away from him as possible.

Summary
Here’s how Miya Atsumu is outed to the world a week after he wins at the V League finals with MSBY. After four years of relentlessly pushing, training and dedication, he won. He basks in the glory, in every hour he’d given, every muscle that screamed, every indulgence he’d sacrificed. A monument built to his effort and sweat, encased in gold.
And a week later, it comes crashing down.
- - -
A tabloid of Atsumu in a precarious situation with a man is plastered all over the media. But rather than wallowing alone, hiding out from society, he takes Kiyoomi's outstretched olive branch and spends the next months in his vacation home in Gunma as they become more than acquaintances, more than friends really. They toe an invisible line until there's nothing left to walk on, and through domestic bliss and unspoken tension, it all boils over, in golden onsen waters.
