Warnings: Coffee, proposals, and otaku references abound. (Also a canon-compliant baby.)
Summary: After watching Narumi play Coffee Talk, Naoya is inspired to open a café that specifically caters to an evening crowd. In order to get an idea of what's out there, he invites Narumi to visit various cafés with him to better understand the coffee scene outside of the [off-brand Starbucks] chain in which he's currently employed. (Narumi... maaaayyyyy use this as an excuse to take him to various collab cafés and get more of the collectable goods, but hey! They're still technically cafés, right?) Oh, and also, Naoya is planning on proposing to Kou after beating her at a video game, despite being the worst gamer ever. Which means Narumi needs to find a way to help him out. Too bad that Hirotaka's clearly not working on the same excuse.
Expect a lot of café culture, tons of nerdiness, and the occasional burst of romance and introspection as Narumi helps her future little brother in law make his dreams come true.

Warnings: Canon-Typical Accidental Misgendering
Summary: Naoya was one of the lucky ones. He’d been told as much for most of his life. After all, he’d met two of his soulmates in preschool. But even if Ken-chan and Yokkun were always there for him, he longed to meet the person who matched the last of his soulmarks and would complete his quad.

Fandom: Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku
Characters/Pairings: Queerplatonic Kabakura Tarou/Koyanagi Hanako/Momose Narum/Nifuji Hirotaka; with special guest appearance from Nifuji Naoya
Rating/Category: PG13/Gen (queerplatonic)
Genre: Slice of Life
Word Count: 11990
Warnings Discussion of pandemic lockdowns, some COVID paranoia and general discussion of COVID (though outside a mention of one or two real-life cases, nobody actually gets sick), canon-typical drinking
Summary: In which there is mourning the things that were cancelled and postponed due to COVID, procrastinating on things because time is soup, and exploring how virtual get-togethers are the best thing ever when in-person gatherings are less than ideal. Also, Animal Crossing. Lots of Animal Crossing. (And then, well, then there's building a new life together with the people who are the most important to Narumi in the world.)
