Summary
Since he presented at the age of sixteen, everyone has seen Kageyama Tobio as an Omega first, and everything else second—especially in the world of volleyball. From Alpha teammates who can’t take no for an answer to sports commentators and journalists who sing his praises only when first qualified by the statement of his secondary gender, Tobio’s never been spared from this unfortunate truth.
There is a singular exception to this rule. Oikawa Tooru: the one Alpha who will never acknowledge him as an Omega, who has only ever viewed him as a rival at best and an enemy at worst, whose interest in him stops as soon as they've departed from the court.
Of course the only person Tobio has ever wanted would never deign to look his way.

Summary
For fifty years, the rule in Japan has been that omegas who wish to play team sports have to wear a collar from their captain. So when Kageyama presents unexpectedly just before a tournament, the logical choice is for Oikawa, as senior captain, to collar him.
Tobio agrees because it’s the only way he can play. But then, like a day later, suddenly Oikawa is all up in his business, demanding if he’s eaten, or why he’s tired, and generally being a controlling Alpha prick.Tooru had never bought into the cliches about Alpha instincts--wanting to scent some random omega or protect someone he didn’t care about?--it was ridiculous. And then he put his collar on Tobio, and suddenly he finds himself acting on impulses that made him barely recognize himself.
Everyone around them takes for granted that Kageyama and Oikawa together is a dumpster fire. But Iwaizumi and Sugawara have a creeping suspicion that there’s only one thing that can explain this crazy bond between them: the two of them are True Mates.

Summary
He’s not sure how they ended up at the same university, either. By all rights, they should have ended up in totally different universities, possibly at opposite ends of the country. But Kageyama had been scouted and he’d been offered a place and it was a very good university, and neither of them hated the other quite enough to turn a place here down because the other was going.
They hadn’t factored in sitting half-naked leant against each other and trying not to sweat too much under the overheated lights.
No one would ever think to factor that in. Kei will forgive himself for not thinking this would happen, and planning for it accordingly.

Summary
“So… I heard you were a fan?”
Kageyama could hear the cartoonish gulp sound effect in his head as his eyes scanned the older alpha next to him. God, Hoshiumi wouldn’t let him live this down.
“You could say that,” he murmured quietly.

Summary
"You're amazing," Tobio says unashamedly, staring at Tooru as if he's some kind of miracle. "Will you please teach me how to serve?"
Tooru swallows.
He cannot do anything about his knee. He cannot change the fact that even with physical therapy, he may never be able to set foot on the court again. And he cannot tell the truth to a boy without memories of the past four years, who is asking him so innocently, so hopefully, for just one simple favor.
Like a sinner on his deathbed, Tooru closes his eyes and smiles.
"Sure."
Oikawa Tooru returns to Miyagi to recover from a career-jeopardizing injury. There he re-encounters Kageyama Tobio, whose memories have been claimed by a traumatic accident.
