Summary: After Nationals, Nanjirou struggles with his changing relationship with his son and with tennis; in the meantime, he strikes up a peculiar friendship with Atobe as the latter pursues a higher level in his tennis.
Notes: My subrosa_tennis Round 5 fic, now with minor edits. GUESSING IS OVER AND I CAN BEG FOR BETAS FOR PART II. US people? New Yorkers? *makes puppy eyes atlanerose. Help me, for I know not how to write Ryoma at the junior US Open.


In the meantime thanks to thephoenixboy and ashesto for betaing the first part of this fic!


( Nanjirou had just about accepted that his son had turned into a vacuous smiling amnesiac with no tennis skills, when they heard the helicopter approach from the opposite side of the mountain. )

Genre: gen, futurefic
wordcount: about 1000
summary: Yukimura visits Fuji in Provence, and convinces him to backpack around Europe together.
notes: For iphridian. Erm. can't guarantee that I will finish this fic, but I promise I will at least write until Tezuka gets into the story somehow!

on Akaya: three propositions
characters: Kirihara future-fic.
wordcount: about a thousand words, I think.
notes: written for the one of the character memes that's been going around; answers went completely overboard because oh, I haven't written Kiri-chan in a long, long time, and I really missed him.
