it's the way iizuna's injury was such a pivotal moment for kiyoomi.
prior to that, kiyoomi had a very streamlined, and in my opinion, naive way of thinking; hard work ensures success, that he'll get the results he wants if he puts in the work and if the result is unfavorable, then it simply means he wasn't prepared enough.
however, by the end of ch.394, we come to learn that kiyoomi grows out of that rigid mentality, factoring in luck and hard work instead of just the latter. now, instead of working hard to get an ideal result, he was working hard so that when his time on court does end, when he runs out of luck, he can leave knowing he put his all while he was still capable. it wasn't a matter of winning or losing anymore. it was a matter of being content, about self-satisfaction.
but when did that click for him?
i think that his change in mentality was a gradual thing, culminating to a singular moment.
we can see the manifestation of his ideals in ch.215 when he confronts kageyama about shiratorizawa's loss. he was in disbelief and immediately assumed ushijima was just not in good condition. he interrogates kageyama afterwards because what could have possibly gone wrong when ushijima was just as, if not more, hard-working as kiyoomi?
Tumblr media
then in ch.394, it starts with ushijima telling kiyoomi how his capabilities were a product of both hard work and luck.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
his is when the idea of luck working together with hard work is introduced to kiyoomi verbally (that i know of).
i'm sure that this was met with skepticism, especially if one has such a fixed way of thinking. i don't think kiyoomi was convinced from that conversation alone but i feel that it did get him contemplating.
then, he learns ushijima doesn't make it to his last spring tournament; he watches hinata collapse mid-game and karasuno lose to kamomedai; and his own team loses when their captain, iizuna sustains an injury.
for all the hard work ushijima puts into volleyball, he was just unfortunate enough to have lost.
in hinata's case, it is inevitably his lack of regard for his health that puts him out of the court but he was lucky enough to have been able to play the match for so long.
both situations showing that preparation and luck go hand-in-hand.
and it all culminates to the exchange kiyoomi has with his captain.
Tumblr media
that's when it finally clicks for kiyoomi.
hard work and preparation can only take you so far, and that's why it hurts more when something that you've put your heart and soul into slips away from your grasp simply because fortune did not favor you.
Tumblr media
kiyoomi already understood that there will always be regrets if you don't put in the work, but is only now realizing how bitter that regret is when you know you don't deserve it.
Tumblr media
his exchange with iizuna not only cements that hard work and luck are intrinsically connected, but it also makes him think of the future, of what his final game would look like.
Tumblr media
and the conclusion he comes up with is that he wants to leave the court with no regrets.
Tumblr media
he will put in the work and do as he's always done and when his time is up, he can leave content and grateful to have been on the court for so long.

Sakusa who hates holding hands; he hates brand deal because that has to do that ‘business’ handshake at the end. He hates makeshift teams which make him be the captain and he has shake hands with the captain of the other side. He hates—
He dislikes walkouts for matches, he has to hold hands with a grubby lil star struck kid for it; the only things that makes it’s bearable is because he imagines those hands to be his kid, with you.
He imagines one day, he can walk out on the court holding hands with a mini-version of you. Sakusa sometimes prays in hopes , you guy’s future child has all of your features; everything that he has ever loved has been you after all.
Sakusa smiles to himself, unconsciously making the cameras go off. The warmth of small hands, holding with so much trust and excitement… Sakusa loves the thought of sharing this moment in the near future.

Actually sleeping with someone is so nice like waking up in the middle of the night and snuggling closer or lazily giving them a kiss or just feeling their arms around you squeeze slightly even though they're in a deep sleep or handholding while you both are asleep.

I love self-shippers and I love your writing, can I say hi???
Also I love annoying people with cool questions, so if you don't want to answer, no problems, but if you wanna....
would you want to get to know Kiyoomi during Highschool, during College or during MSBY time?
oooooo i'm kinda new to the whole self-shipping thing so i'm not too sure with what i'm doing X) thank you so much for liking my writing! <3 i'm really just trying to cope with all the brainworms in my head. now hmmmmm of the three, i think i would want to get to know kiyoomi when he was in high school. the idea of watching each other grow into ourselves throughout the years is just such an appealing thought. :') thanks for the question!

"you gotta let me go, lovebug." kiyoomi rumbles, attempting to gently wiggle out of your baby's grasp. the lovebug in question only gurgles, happy to have her father's attention on her. it quirks a smile on kiyoomi's face. his amusement is short-lived, however, when the grip on his finger seemingly tightens in response and tightens even more when he wiggles just a tad harder.
his rising panic amuses you to no end.
at the sound of your quiet giggles, kiyoomi looks up from the baby cradled in your arms and looks you in the eye.
"a little help would be nice, you know?" he frowns. "our food's gonna be here any minute."
"i would love to but there's nothing i can really do when she's clinging like that, kiyo." you send him the most sympathetic smile you could muster with the laughter still bubbling up your throat. "you know how she gets."
and kiyoomi does—he really does. your daughter got it from you, after all.

ok so im not done.... kiyoomi vehemently denying getting sulky over his daughter being practically swaddled in hinata's jersey instead of his when you both show up to one of his games. kiyoomi insisting that he's fine and he's grown enough not to be so petty about something so trivial, all the while the pout on his face grows more prominent.
kiyoomi letting his kid daughter choose the pattern for his mask and socks for the day :')

SOME people who read x reader fanfiction are really insufferable, especially when they say shit like i would never do this or i would never call someone babe. something not being your cup of tea is more than understandable, but it becomes a problem when you start bitching about it to someone who writes fanfiction and kindly posts it FOR FREE. if you do not like it, do not read it and go on with your day. start writing your own self indulgent fanfiction where you call the character whatever pet name you’d like and get over yourself
