    Summary

    Running from everyone and everything he's ever known with nothing but a duffel bag and the hat on his head, Chuuya hesitates when a stranger covered in bandages offers him a ride for free—all fake smiles, sharp edges, dark eyes. Maybe, he thinks, he isn't the only one trying to escape the ghosts of the past.

    Summary

    Rumor has it that a figure in Yokohama’s underground scene is holding a contest. The top-voted street racer wins a free enrollment into the next Formula 3 season, all the way in California. They might as well be handing out a one-way ticket to the F1 roster, and all the fame, glory, and money that comes with it.

    The entire city’s confident that the best driver that the circuit’s known in decades, Dazai Osamu—street name: McQueen, will win the opportunity.

    That is, until a redheaded rookie known by the name of Prince shows up on his streets.

    Summary

    After the harrowing events of Round 7, a stray bullet from a careless guard causes another unexpected tragedy on stage: Mizi’s death.

    But just as the world dims around her, she makes one last wish to make things right— and wakes up several years in the past, well before her friends’ upcoming rounds.

    However, saving her friends won’t be easy; Sua’s already noticing her change in attitude, and Ivan’s being… well, Ivan. Despite that, she’s willing to go above and beyond for her friends.

    Summary

    Dazai thought about wings the way he thought about stairs. Just a way to go somewhere else. Birds had two, and that seemed important, like having two hands. He tried to imagine them on his own back—soft, grey, folded tight so nobody could see—and the picture felt almost right for one second.

    But then he pictured one wing missing. Or bleeding. Or torn. Gone, like it had been taken away from him when he wasn’t looking.

    Two was for flying. One was for falling. Dazai didn’t know why he felt like a one-wing thing, but he did. He looked at the roof edge and thought, very quietly, Maybe I’m supposed to fall. Maybe falling will fix it.

    or: Dazai has been reaching for the exit since he was five. Ten attempts, years apart—a life lived with one wing in the grave—stitched together by the same quiet grief.
