Warnings: brief, vague mentions of memory loss
Summary: Nino is living with Jun, who runs a little hipster coffee shop in Tokyo, until one day, Sho—Nino’s friend from another lifetime—appears, asking Nino to come with him, back to their hometown on a little island no one has ever heard of called Nagajima.

fic for jadeswallow (1/2)

[nino-mod.livejournal.com]

For: jadeswallow
From: domoarigatoyo

Title: in the stillness of a grey canvas / we’re never alone
Pairing(s): Nino/Matsuoka
Character(s): Nino, Matsuoka, Kokubun, Aiba, and a tiny bit of Ohno
Rating: PG-13 with some physical intimacy
Genre(s): AU, sci-fi, romance, angst
Warning(s): angst, potentially confusing plot/storyline
Disclaimer: I own nothing, except for the plot. Pure work of fiction.
Summary: In which Nino forgets, Matsuoka gets irredeemably confused, and parallel paths manage to meet.

Notes: For jadeswallow! :) Firstly, thank you so much for your wonderful request, and to the mod for your excellent pairing skills! And my lovely beta!<3 It was a glorious, glorious moment of dizzying happiness when I read your prompt for pairings. Nino/Matsuoka? Nino/Matsuoka? NINO/MATSUOKA?? …I gawked at it for five minutes just to make sure my mind wasn’t making things up, really I did. I’m ashamed to say that despite being a huge fangirl of both, it never occurred to me to write them as a romantic pairing. So THANK YOU really!:D

I’m not going to lie – this was just about the hardest fic I have ever written or attempted. I was tempted to just give up and write an Arashi pairing, but I’m too stubborn and fangirly for my own good so I stuck with it.

So here it is. An insanely long monster (with an incredibly uninformative summary. I know, I know) that I really hope you will enjoy. I’m not going to comment on it, because it’s a gift fic and I don’t want to depress you with stories of inadequacies (lol), but just. Thank you in advance for amazing patience. :)

fic for airairo

[nino-mod.livejournal.com]

For: airairo
From: cutselvage

Title: But I Choke It Back (How Much I Need Love)
Pairing/Focus: Ohmiya
Rating: R
Warnings: Sex, a bit of foul language~
Summary: Ten years a crush, and Nino’s been pushing those feelings away for as long as he can remember.
Notes: I cribbed the title from “Middle Cyclone” by Neko Case, which was one of the songs I listened to rather a lot while writing this. I also made a mix of the music I listened to while writing this fic, which you can download here (mediafire, rar). Events and timelines are a little blurred to account for my imperfect knowledge and storyline purposes. I couldn’t have done this without the cheerleading and hand-holding from my wonderful beta, lostinomo.

airairo, I hope you enjoy it!

fic for sky_fish7

[nino-mod.livejournal.com]

For: sky_fish7
From: ylunio

Title: Alcohol, coffee and cigarettes
Pairing: Sakumiya
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Just some curses here and there
Summary: Nino needs to follow a more healthy lifestyle.
Notes: I almost gave up writing this fanfiction because I had a couple of hard months, so I apologize in advance to my recipient, if this is not exactly what she wanted to read. I tried to do my best, and in the end I had some fun writing it, so thank you for this opportunity. Also, this is the very first time I’ve written this pairing, and I hope I didn’t write them too OOC. Thank you so much, nino_mod because of your patience and thank you for being the amazing mod you are!
