hellooo! I'm interested in your take on this: in the star plasma arc when touji tells getou that he killed gojou.. getou does not react emotionally at all. like he just says "OK so I kill u heh" and thats it. It seems a little off to me compared to gojou who struggled so, so much with having to kill getou at some point and obviously thinking about getou's mortality. But in this scene getou seems so... Indifferent? What do you think about this?

Holaaaa 😆!

Hey anon, thanks for your patience. Quite honestly, to answer your question I had to go back and re-read the arc in question + I needed all three braincells in my brain firing on all cylinders + coffee.

Basically it took me a while to think through your ask. Also... listen, my brain works in mysterious ways. There’s absolutely no way I can give a short answer. I am dumb like that.

That said: What a great observation you make. I do believe Gege is very intentional in how he depicts his characters (from dialogue and design, to their cursed techniques), so you might be onto something there.

While I could be wrong, after doing “research” to answer your q, I see Geto as a complex character who experienced a traumatic event that ultimately led to him being true to himself. As a result, I believe we get to see his true colors:

He has a sense of superiority that he is unaware of and looks down on non-sorcerers. Not to mention the power trip he’s in.

Or as you say: “indifference”.

But there is, of course, much more to it than that...

You know what's below the cut? Word vomit! 🤮 Took me a while, but words were vomited yes...

Since I am a word vomiter extraordinaire, feel free to skip to the very end for the TLDR summary.

Also, I haven’t properly brain rotted about Geto until your ask came through. Soooooo I may only scratch the surface of his character and his character arc in attempting to answer your question.

Not to mention that my interpretation will inevitably be influenced by my own subjective experience. After all, the only one with the objective truth about the characters in JJK is none other than Gege. The rest of us in fandom are left to experience JJK through the lens of our own subjective life experience.

OK! All three braincells firing on all cylinders! Woo!

Onto the fun part!

The Shonen Power Duo trope

As always, bear with me while I go off in an odd tangent, I promise it will pay off...

Not sure how long you’ve been watching or reading Shonen anime and manga but one of the most common tropes is that of “the Shonen Power Duo”.

In this trope, two characters with seemingly opposing personalities are paired together as rivals and/or allies:

- Geto and Gojo (Jujutsu Kaisen)

- Megumi and Yuji (Jujutsu Kaisen)

- Aki and Denji (Chainsaw Man)

- Kageyama and Hinata (Haikyu!)

- Sasuke and Naruto (Naruto)

- OF COURSE I JUST HAD TO MENTION Kurogane and Fai (Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle)

... the list goes on.

You get the point.

Also, notice the order in which I mentioned them: “Yin” (passive) character first, followed by “yang” (active) character.

That’s because in addition to having personalities that oppose each other and therefore balance each other out (yin + yang), another characteristic all of these power duos have in common is that these two characters in question are often presented as being the strongest two and are almost equal in power. As a result, either one or both of these two characters tend to see each other as rivals.

So for me, the simplest answer to your question is to say that Geto’s personality is the yin to Gojo’s yang. Sooo you can expect for them to have reactions that oppose one another in style and quite possibly psychology.

In other words, where Gojo’s personality is outwardly expressed (although he hides a more serious personality, he’s a bit of a trickster figure, he clowns around, is quite possibly extroverted)...

Geto’s personality, on the other hand, is internally expressed (he’s seemingly more calm and collected).

Ah! there you go, name has been confirmed. Don’t kill me but until your ask came through I couldn’t even remember his first name.

I am, OF COURSE, making a MASSIVE over-generalization about their personalities here. But if you boil the personality trope down to its core, Gojo’s outgoing personality (yang) and Geto’s more calm personality (yin) are the characteristics that define their character tropes at the most basic level.

But we love JJK precisely because characters are incredibly multidimensional, don’t we? And aside from that, personality is all surface-level “stuff”.

So yes, it could just be that their personalities are different and that’s why they had diametrically different reactions: Gojo outwardly expressing he cares a lot vs Geto appearing indifferent because he doesn’t outwardly express himself as much as Gojo does.

But again, that's just the face-value layer for the panel in question, and JJK is more of a multi-layered experience.

The thing is that the panel in question...

...is the culmination of a long and drawn out process.

It is also the beginning of a chain of events that shook Geto to the core.

And I wonder whether it all started with this here moment...

Geto Suguru, the irony of his character

So I never thought anything of Geto’s ears until I started writing this. But Geto’s elongated ears look to me like they are meant to make a statement about his character.

In Buddhism, elongated ears symbolize “making the conscious choice to reject the material world in favor of spiritual enlightenment.” They also symbolize “wisdom and compassion.”

But.... Why does a character who calls non-sorcerers monkeys (because he clearly looks down on them), and who wants to commit mass genocide, have Buddha ears as part of his character design--the symbol for wisdom, compassion and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment?

I may be missing the point here, but Geto’s way of thinking is not entirely compassionate.

I totally get that Geto came face to face with the injustices of the system he was a cog for. I also personally feel like his reaction to the events that “changed him” is totally and 300% understandable.

Part of his tragedy was that he subjected himself to horrible experiences for the sake of a lie he was telling himself because he needed to find a reason to not feel the way he truly felt. More on this in a bit.

Not to mention that in trying to protect Sorcerers from non-sorcerers, Geto is also showing us how much he cares.

For this reason, to be honest, I am having a hard time deciding whether he was compassionate before he was broken by the Jujutsu-scheme of things, or whether he was never compassionate to begin with. Hence why his reactions appear “indifferent” to you.

If he was a truly wise and compassionate being, his reaction to "non-sorcerers as monkeys” would have been one of trying to understand how their very human suffering creates the conditions for curses to be born from them. Instead, his reasoning is to kill them.

Consider that compassion is a state of being of the body-mind-soul, not a mental concept (but this is a can of worms for another day).

While I am not sure whether we can call Tsukumo Yuki compassionate, she is at least “trying to understand”.

OF COURSE I JUST HAD TO MENTION Compassion looks more like trying to understand another’s suffering and knowing you can never fully do so because you are not them.

And yet you still feel for other’s pain, and try to understand because suffering is part of the shared human experience.

In fact, the character in the panel above, Sumeragi Subaru, has what I would call a pathological propensity for compassion. Subaru’s compassionate kindness won’t allow him to harm others and will bring that harm onto himself instead. I only share the panel to illustrate what a compassionate character REALLY thinks and behaves like.

But Geto has instead chosen to look down on the very same “monkeys” whom he thought he should be protecting.

Looking at Geto through this lens, I have to ask myself whether Geto has always looked down at “weakness in general” but had convinced himself to protect the weak/non-sorcerers because he was told that’s what Jujutsu Sorcerers do.

You could also argue that he looks down on non-sorcerers BECAUSE of what happened to him, and that his decision to commit mass genocide is based on his resentment.

Buuuuut, I strongly suspect he always felt a sense of superiority over non-sorcerers that he hid from others--including himself, hence why I say he was not true to himself and came to reveal his true colors towards the end of the arc.

To which Yuki tells him:

The idea that Geto had been resisting the feeling of looking down at non-sorcerers is implied by Yuki in the panel above. And since Geto went onto murderer an entire village (including his parents), we already know that he decided to be true to this feeling of looking down on non-sorcerers--he decided to be true to himself at last.

From my perspective, perhaps Geto came to believe that Jujutsu Sorcerers are spiritually evolved beings and therefore superior to humans, whom, again, he sees as no better off than monkeys.

Myes yes I had tons of fun creating this graphic.

That said, it’s interesting to me that both Gojo and Geto use “Buddha” symbolism (Gojo quotes Buddha and Geto has elongated ears) because to me this speaks to their exalted state as spiritual beings.

But I feel that unlike Gojo, Geto is missing the point of what strength and following a “spiritual” path truly means.

Also, when I use the word “spiritual” I am not using it in the traditional sense of the word but in the JJK-sense of the word. Basically Jujutsu sorcerers use their “spiritual/psychic” powers to exorcise curses--in other words, they have conscious control of their “Cursed”/Psychic Energy.

Now, I get that Geto has “good” intentions for wanting to commit genocide. I actually sympathize with his rather twisted logic and somehow feel compassion for the suffering that brought this on for him. After all, a Jujutsu Sorcerer’s job is a massive exercise in futility in the grander scheme of things.

All this said... Geto may have the symbolism of an enlightened being and be one of the strongest, but his fatal flaw, his greatest mistake, from my perspective, was both not being true and being true to himself.

Again, “only weak people apply reasoning and responsibility to Jujutsu.”

The panel in question

So, ALL OF THAT TO SAY that to me what you are seeing as a strange reaction: “ok then die”, is Geto perhaps reaching a tipping point in which he started to question if he truly felt like he should continue to follow the logic he had adopted--“Jujutsu sorcerers protect the weak”.

I personally think that while he convinced himself that “Jujutsu sorcerers protect the weak,” he did not necessarily feel that in his heart of hearts but became a cog to the system because it was what was expected of him. Duty and dharma are important concepts in Japanese society and Buddhism after all.

So when Toji, a “monkey,” shows up and declares he has killed Gojo, the Star Plasma vessel, and her caretaker, all people that Geto had come to care for, the only thing that made sense was to kill the monkey that should have been weaker than him.

So here we have a tipping point. A defining moment in Geto’s character arc.

Geto made a quick decision: this monkey needs to die. There is no rhyme or reason for it, he simply needs to die.

In other words, I headcanon he chose not to follow the logic of “protecting the weak because he’s a Jujutsu Sorcerer” but rather followed his desire to kill “the monkey”, Toji.

Perhaps this is a moment in which Geto was finally true to himself. In turn, this moment led to him wondering how much he wanted to continue rejecting the feeling of looking down on non-sorcerers.

And like... good for him? There is nothing more freeing than being true to yourself unless you want to commit mass genocide then maybe you should probably seek help.

Now... remember how in the Shonen Power Duo trope the two characters in the duo have opposing personality traits?

Well, here’s when it comes into play.

Consider that the trope doesn’t just have to be about how their personalities are opposites of one another, but rather it can also highlight how their internal characteristics and character arcs also oppose each other--i.e. what these character’s values and morals are, and what they believe in can also be opposites of one another.

Enter one of the beings with the strongest sense of self...

Gojo Satoru, the strongest

The reason the Shonen Power Duo trope is important here is because it’s literally used to juxtapose how Gojo’s sense of self (ego/mind) and Geto’s sense of self has resulted in a gap in strength that cannot be bridged unless Geto overcomes his mental cages--applying reasoning to Jujutsu.

In other words, Gojo is the strongest because of his sense of self. That is the paradox of the question from the panel above.

Gojo = strong sense of self, and in JJK strong sense of self = power.

Which inevitably means that Geto’s sense of self is not on the same level as Gojo’s.

The purpose of the Hidden Inventory/Star Plasma Arc was probably to show how their respective character arcs were affected differently by the trauma of their respective encounters with Toji.

Which is why I dedicated so much word vomit towards explaining how I think Geto was lying to himself and was only true to himself when he decided to follow his instinct to kill Toji.

When it comes to ego, or sense of self, psychologically-speaking, a strong sense of self requires that you know yourself first and foremost. Which is no easy feat because the moment you THINK you understand your unconscious biases, another one comes up in your blind spot or shadow to be integrated into consciousness.

Such is the nature of ego and consciousness.

Geto seems to think he’s higher on the psychospiritual totem pole of evolution but he’s failed to realize the nature of ego and consciousness is such that he is caught in a mental cage of his own making (applying reasoning to Jujutsu) until he develops a sense of self based on self-understanding.

Unlike Geto (and his elongated Buddha ears) Gojo achieved such self-understanding or enlightenment. In fact, the kanji for his first name, Satoru, is the pictorial representation for the concept of enlightenment: 悟.

Gojo has seen what is beyond his ego/mind--infinity, and transcended himself.

And yet, unlike Geto, as someone who experienced enlightenment, I headcanon that Gojo experiences true compassion for the suffering of mankind.

Think of it this way:

If Gojo doesn’t need a reason (or a logical train of thought) for not committing mass genocide, then why not just do it?

“The only ones who are able to transcend beyond merely strong are those with an overwhelming sense of self and a complete disregard for others.”

After all, we’ve been told in more than one occasion that it’s not just a strong sense of self that equals power, but also that the most powerful sorcerers are those who disregard others.

I go into more detail about the trope that Gege is using here, "enlightenment does not always result in benevolent beings”, in my liveblog for chapter 181. Check it out if you’re interested because it’s a fascinating subject that is also present in Urobuchi Gen’s Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Psycho-Pass.

In JJK, Geto continues to apply reasoning (ego) to solve his problems, while Gojo has transcended reasoning and is in tune with a more cosmic consciousness--he’s become a Bodhisattva, a person who has reached enlightenment but chooses to remain Earthbound out of compassion in order to save suffering beings.

I mention this because this could explain why you felt like Gojo shows he cares a lot compared to Geto’s reactions. To me, Gojo not killing when he could easily do so shows he might be a highly compassionate being.

Again, Shonen Power Duo trope in action--two characters who are the yin to the other’s yang and viceversa.

TLDR

Geto did not look disturbed because he did not really feel it in his bones that he should be protecting non-sorcerers. I really think he reasoned himself into believing he should protect the weak/non-sorcerers. After seeing how sorcerers were suffering because of non-sorcerers, he realized who his heart truly wished to protect and revealed his true colors.

Gojo, on the other hand, appears to be a Bodhisattva, a person who has reached enlightenment but chooses to remain Earthbound out of compassion in order to save suffering beings. Hence why his reactions reflect a much deeper level of “caring”.

Sorry anon who asked about Geto...

Right.

I am certifiably crazy.

I go in crazy tangents...

And then I often wonder if I can explain things in simple terms but I’ve come to accept that this is how my mind works bahaha.

Like I said, there is nothing more cathartic and liberating than being true to yourself and accepting yourself as you are. Unless you want to commit mass-genocide, then please seek help.

Thank you for reading if you’ve made it this far.

To be frank this was a difficult ask for multiple reasons and I am choosing to say this because what I wrote here is my opinion--since you so kindly asked for it.

The main reason I struggled writing this was because part of the fandom does not like it when people have opinions about the “darker” side of the characters they love that they don’t agree with (I speak from experience *cough cough Dark Megumi*).

Let it be known that I have a soft spot and love for problematic characters who royally fuck up because there isn’t anything more human than making mistakes and learning from them.

Also, I hope I have not sounded like I know what I am talking about when it comes to Geto. I have strong opinions and I trust my conscience, but I know I can and have been wrong about certain details in the past.

The fact that I have to write this goes to show that this fandom is massive and different opinions abound.

The problem isn’t having a different opinion, but rather when people bully others over having a different opinion.

Also, I’d be a hypocrite if I did not admit that sometimes I read what others write and think “mmm you’re missing the point” or “this person shared a headcanon while thinking they’re being objective.”

But the truth is that what I have written here could very well be headcanon to others.

In the spirit of one of the most beautiful lessons from JJK: let’s remember that other’s way of seeing things is right for them, and that doesn’t mean that ours isn’t.

So as always, take what I write with a grain of salt and exercise that sexy brain of yours by thinking critically about the word vomit you read in my blog.

I’ve done my best to remain objective. But as I shared in the beginning, there are limits to objectivity and the only one who truly knows without a shadow of a doubt what he wanted to portray in that panel is Gege.

ALL THAT SAID, thank you for trusting me with sharing my thoughts on the matter and thank you for your patience!

Sorry it took me so long to answer your ask anon who asked about Geto 😂.

okay so i don't think anyone's done this before but could you do the hq bois with an s/o who has a really long ahoge😂 like emma's from tpn

the bois get curious and try to brush it down but it just pops back up LMAO

pairing: kageyama tobio, ushijima wakatoshi, & yamaguchi tadashi all with a gn!reader

warnings: some uber fluff, and kageyama whacking you in the head because he’s a dumbass with one braincell lol

a/n: haosdihfsidhfs i'm dying omg okay hahaha this is so funny LOL thank you for sending this in anon!!! this was such a funny concept to me hahaha i hope i did okay with it!!

"ahoge: Consisting of a single cute, often long, lock of hair sticking out from the top of the head, it is most often used to identify foolish, bumbling or carefree characters"

haikyuu masterlist

Kageyama has glared for too long at this long piece of hair that sticks out from the rest of your locks. He needed to know what was wrong with it. All day, he had watched it flutter in the wind while the two of you walked around town shopping. There was nothing that annoyed him more in this moment because it kinda reminded him of Hinata's stupid hair too. Except yours was pretty and not at all an ugly shade like the tangerine's.

Kageyama knew that you always got annoyed with him when he messed up your hair when the two of you were out, but this long strand was just really getting on his nerve. He just had to whack it down or something.

You were quickly greeted with a swift hit on your head, Kageyama's hands trying to smooth down your little ahoge. "H-hey! Kageyama, stop it!" You groaned, swatting as his hands you angrily stomped away from him slightly to try and fix the damage. "What's your problem?" You huffed, glaring up at him.

Kageyama was quick to give you an apologetic smile, staring down at his feet before saying, "I just.... wanted to know why it stuck up like that." His whole face was lighting up like a christmas decoration as he rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

You glanced back at him in confusion before looking up at your head (as if you could see it from your perspective) before hitting his arm kinda playfully, "You could've just asked," you pointed out with a shake in your head. "Didn't have to ruin my hair like that... now I look like an idiot," you sighed, trying to use the glass in a shop window to help fix your hair.

"I'm sorry," Kageyama apologized quickly, feeling the regret of his rash decisions. "I'll make it up to you! Do you want boba?"

"Fine, but you better get me a pastry too," you insisted and he nodded eagerly, practically sprinting down the street before sprinting all the way back to be like,

"Did... did you want to walk there with me? Or-"

You let out a laugh and nodded, taking his arm in yours with a half playful half annoyed look in your eyes, "Sometimes, Kageyama, you just make me wanna smack your head," you told him as the two of you walked. "Asshole ruining my hair," you mumbled under your breath.

Kageyama just shot you another apologetic sorrowful look - he really hadn't thought it through, "I'm sorry, but... you still look like the most perfect person ever. I think your hair looks beautiful," he admitted quietly, his ears going pink in embarrassment.

So you forgave him. Because he was cute and he was going to buy you boba and some snacks so what more could you ask for? So of course you forgave him.

Until you woke up from a nap later to him playing with your ahoge, swatting it around like a little kitten and a new toy. He was going to have to buy you a whole lot more snacks now.

Ushijima has also spent a lot of time staring at your ahoge. He's oddly fascinated by it and often will flick his finger at it when you're not paying attention. Then he'll look away like he didn't do anything because he didn't want you to know how fascinated he was with this piece of your hair that seemed longer than the others.

One thing that Ushijima always loved to do was pat your head affectionately. But lately you noticed that his hand would stay for a while longer and then he'd life it off you slowly, before pressing it back down again.

You honestly thought that Ushijima was just trying to be more affectionate, but you finally caught his eye when he was doing this once, noticing how frustrated he seemed, "Ushi? Whatcha doing?" you asked, making him pull his hand away quickly in a fluster.

"Nothing," he stated simply, his tone so even but the look in his eyes as he tried to turn away from you gave him away.

You laughed as you quickly stood in front of him again, watching him try to calm himself down from getting caught, "What? Do you have something against my hair or something?" you asked curiously, watching his eyes.

Ushijima shifted in his feet, shoving his hands uncomfortably into his pockets, "Why does it do that?" he finally asked, looking at your hair.

"Grow?" You asked teasingly.

Ushijima shook his head and reached up to flick his fingers at your ahoge again, "That," he tried to explain, his brow creasing as he tried to understand. "Do you... do you make it do that? Like Tendō and his hair?"

Your jaw dropped slightly at the mention of his best friend, "Tendō's hair doesn't... just naturally do that?"

Ushijima shook his head, smiling when he realized the two of you had thought the same thing, "No. I asked him once. He says he uses a product. I think it suits him though."

"Mm. Me too," you decided with a nod, smiling up at him. "I don't do anything to it. It's just kinda always wanted to go up," you explained, reaching up to twirl the lock around your fingers. "Does it bother you?"

Ushijima shook his head quickly, leaning down to press a kiss on your head, "It makes you very unique. And I love you for how different you are."

You couldn't help but feel your whole body go warm in response because Ushijima always said these things so casually. You couldn't help but laugh every time you found him playing or staring at your hair now, knowing he was just wondering about your gravity-defying strands. But what you didn't know, is that a lot of the times that you didn't catch him, Ushijima was too busy staring at how wonderful you were, how the sun kissed your skin, how your eyes widened when you were excited about something - he was always busy staring at you as a whole, even if sometimes he was just intrigued by your hair.

Yamaguchi thinks that your ahoge is the cutest. fucking. thing. ever. You were already the most perfect human being but now??? With your cute little strand just sticking up like that?? His heart swoons every time he sees you and he's really not sure how to handle it.

Yachi was the one who pointed it out to him, because this sweet boy probably didn't even really notice at first. When the two of you first started dating, he was too nervous to look you in the eye so he just looked at the floor or the ceiling or literally anywhere else. But Yachi asked him if you guys had planned the same hair style or if it was just fate and that's when he practically fainted in how cute you were.

Your little hair sticking up like that was kinda like his hair, how his hair stuck up sometimes. But yours was much longer and made you look so much cuter than his did.

He likes to play with your hair when you two are alone and he finally feels a little less nervous around you, when you tell him it's okay of course. His fingers often play with your one long strand, smiling to himself because it just made him feel like you two belonged together.

"We're like that super cute couple that matches!" You told him one day when the two of you showed up to a date wearing similar colours. "Even our hair sticks out the same!" You beamed up at him, reaching up to play with his hair for a moment.

He literally almost died that day. You were much too cute and he had no clue how to handle you.

"How do you get it to... look like that?" Yamaguchi asked you as the two of you strolled through the park. "Your hair I mean."

"Hm? Like this part?" You asked, playing with the one long lock sticking out your head. "I don't really do anything. Normally, when it's wet, it stays down but as soon as it's dry enough, it just pops right back up," you shrugged.

Yamaguchi nodded slowly - so you really were just perfect after all. He never felt like he could get his hair just right but you seemed to do it effortlessly.

"I like yours though," you continued, smiling up at him and reaching up to pat his head lovingly. "Your hair is always so soft and smooth. Much softer than I ever would've imagined!"

Yamaguchi's cheeks and ears were both showing just how nervous you made him, making you laugh because he really was just the cutest little bean ever.

The longer you two are together, the more Yamaguchi feels comfortable with you. And soon, you two tease each other nonstop, poking and flicking things at each other's hair, tugging on it playfully to get one another's attention, grins spread widely on your faces.

Yamaguchi always wondered if ahoge's were hereditary or at least had some genetic component to it. He wouldn't tell you this for a long time coming, he wouldn't want to scare you off with too serious of talks of course, but he wondered if your kids would have an ahoge like you. Would it be as perfect?

Of course it would, Yamaguchi decided internally, smiling as he watched you talk about something you were oddly passionate about. After all, anything remotely related to you must be perfect.

what does your favorite hq character says about your ideal s/o

disclaimer: this is my personal take based on how i perceive the characters

karasuno ver. part 2

(tsukishima, yamaguchi, kageyama, & hinata)

tsukki

you being in a relationship with them is not a surprise

heck, everyone saw it coming

and probably the both of you knew it too

you are like two peas in a pod

honestly, both of you are a headache

you share the same braincell

you have a sarcastic dry humor and you both believe that anyone who doesn't get your sense of humor is simply below your level

you have your own world together

actually both of you are convinced that the two of your are the only sane people left in this world

you are attracted to logical and rational thinkers

one who doesn't get swayed by emotions

you'll probably see them observing people in the background and you could tell what goes on in their head

because you two are the same person

like a soulmate thing

the red string of fate

opposites attract? pft that's overrated

the best thing about being in a relationship with them is seeing the other side of their personality that most people don't know about

they're mischevious yet caring only to you

the sound of their laughs echoing resonates a choir singing in an empty room

you love your lowkey hang outs

movies dates, shopping dates, dates in the park.. with a bunch of obnoxious simple minded slaves of capitalism? uh never mind

dates are spent at homeㅡin their room

at times each of you are preoccupied by your own interests

so you find yourselves lying on the bed or bedroom floor having your own bubbles

their head resting on your thigh as your fingers run through the strands of their hair

you tell them you're hungry and they hum in reply

you head out to the kitchen to grab instant noodles

and as you prepare the food you suddenly feel a stare burning at your back

your head turns and you see them

one hand supporting their chin the other tapping against the wooden kitchen table

their deep eyes watches you navigate through the kitchen

your eyebrows twitch up in question

the corners of their lips pull into a smile and they mutter

"i'm sharing the bowl with you."

yamaguchi

your s/o needs to be loyal

as fuck

forgive me for cursing but damn

you are attracted to a person who you know will be there for you through thick and thin, high and lows

you want someone who gives you the same energy and effort you put in them

the attention they give you does not feel obligatory because they are naturally affectionate and gentle

you don't mind spoiling them with affection from time to time

i mean,, give them a hug or a peck on the cheek and they blush instantly?

im down for it

they have no business being this cute

they are legitimately the epitome of comfort

they are your safe haven

being with them feels like the world is a beautiful paradise

dates are fluff i can envision an arcade type of date

upon entering, they see how your eyes immediately widens at the sight of the cute stuffed animal inside the crane machine

in an instant they lead to the said machine

pushing a coin inside before pulling their sleeves up ready for a battle

surprisingly they get it in one go

you both jump in excitement hugging each other with the plushie squeezed between the two of you

the kids in the arcade exchange glances at sight of two child-like adults

but neither of you cares because being with each other means you can be yourself

you try a few more games betting on which one of you wins most games

in the end you win

and they treat you to a sweet dessert while they argue that they went easy with you because they simply want to see you happily eat your waffle

you bicker back, saying frustration was clearly written on their face when they lost the game

they giggle at your retort

they look at you with puppy eyes saying how you amaze them everytime

kageyama

my money is on the table

i bet when the moment you met them you aren't actively looking for a lover

you are way too focused on your studies/career/passion that you're convinced that a relationship can wait

but not with them

you are attracted to a person with a great sense of passion

you like how they eyes lit up in excitement whenever they ramble about what they love

you are up for a low maintenance relationship

you aren't the clingy type

a few texts and hang outs a week can suffice which can make you both focus on your careers without the nagging feeling of not being enough for each other

emotional attachment is a liability

but when you get the time to spend with them it's one of the best days

you'll definitely mark it in your calendar and look forward to it for the whole week

your only motivation is you get to see them

they ask about your day and you can visibly see them being extra caring for you

their eyes may be sharp, more so intimidating, but when they look at you their orbs turn doe-like

and you admire that the most

you're the only who gets to witness that

your usual dates might probably be after school/work/trainingㅡaside from the planned ones

it's not the usual dates couples do after working hours

it's probably just them walking you home

but those moments are what keeps you giddy after a long tiring day

they walk next to you as you both fill the silence with random stories

and from time to time you can feel their knuckles brushing against yours

they want to hold your hand but they don't know how to ask

you look up to them eyes disappearing as you smile at them teeth showing

they take is as a "yes"

immediately sliding their fingers between yours crossing them before squeezing your hand, hiding a smile from you

you can feel your body warm up from the touch

they brush their thumb against the back of your hand back and forth repeatedly

ushering you to continue your narrative before you were distracted by them

hinata

im going to be straight with this one though im not lmao

you want a love that make you feel like you're in cloud nine

jitters taking over your system

your heart skipping a beat

ears turning crimson red

you want a love that feels like it's your first love

the feelings build up gradually

you find yourself lost in thought wondering what your s/o is up to or what should you do the next time you meet with them

everyday, even if you're dating for quite awhile now, feels like you're still indulged in honeymoon stage

flustered cheeks, stuttering, head scratching, and awkward glances

like everyday you're testing the waters

you don't want to do something unintentional that might offend them

and trying your best to keep yourself from jumping to them into a hug in the middle of the hallway

since you're attracted to someone who is friendly and energetic

they love to brag about you to everyone they know

but they don't want you to know that

you love someone who is determined

who is not afraid to make mistakes for the sake of growth

and this attitude draws you in making you want to do just the same

they are always there for you

they will offer you time when you need someone to hear you out or a shoulder to cry on

needless to say, they are a great listener and adviser

they seem to always say the right words

just like any cliché first love dates, they may take you on a movie date

they have been dreaming about this for a long time and since you're here they're beyond thrilled about it

please they're so cute

you show up in your best casual attire and they're in awe

they can't even hide the fondness written on their face the moment their eyes laid on you

and you're no different from them

they try their best to keep you comfortable the whole date

they intentionally brought their jacket for you but don't tell anyone

they take you to a nice meal after the movie as both of you chatter about the movie you had just seen

proceeding to talk about random things on the way home you reach your doorstep

the awkward tension is back

you airways tighten as they lock eyes with you your legs are frozen and you're unable to move

their hand cups your jaw, thumb resting below the crest of your cheeks

they lean in and aim for your forehead

subtle but enough to make you heart pump like you've done twenty burpees in a row

a small smile reflects on their face as they bid you a goodnight

aightt im finally done with the whole karasuno gang,,

i am open for requests so let me know which hq character you want me to do next

thanks for reading!

here's part 1 if you missed it

Manager!Seijoh

a/n: im a seijoh stan and theyre my little plant babies

for more seijoh content, check this masterlist out!

this is so long oml i hate myself

theyre an actual boy band istg

lets be honest, they probably thought you were just another oikawa fangirl

they thought you just wanted to be closer to their captain bc you were another delusional girl who wanted to live out her fantasies

lmao im not trying to be salty

but when you just stared blankly at oikawa tooru after he called you a beautiful flower,

stageplay hinata calling you a mugwort

the team just about threw themselves on your feet

tbh you werent really there to get a boyfriend or for oikawa

you just needed an after school club and the other teams already had managers

the only sport that didnt was the boys volleyball team

imagine why

you were actually a little wary, since you knew of oikawa, being a first year yourself, and you were aware of his psycho fangirls who could probably kill you

but you needed a club that would last you for the next 3 years to graduate

it was kunimi who actually recommended being a manager

you were in his class and you noticed him sleeping in the morning so you gave him your energy bar

‘thanks’

you shrugged and smiled

thats why he tolerated you more than others

you were nice and you were the only one who noticed his tiredness, even the teacher left him alone, and did something about it

sometimes, you even gave him an energy drink

‘can you tell me why youve been so tired lately? i dont think ive seen you wake up until lunch’

he opened the snack and started munching while replying

‘early morning practice for volleyball is still a big adjustment. our captain demands us to be there 6 in the morning sharp and if we’re even a minute late, we’d have to run laps. like for every minute youre late, you have to run those amount’

oh my why is kunimi talking so much

but i love kunimi and first year seijoh boys rights in this household is valid

you furrowed your eyebrows

‘but yall are still growing and you need all your sleep. if i were there, id yell at your captain’

he grinned slightly, imagining your short height beating up their captain

‘meh. you want to be our manager? i saw you looking at the clubs board yesterday and we dont have one so you could take the opportunity and beat him up then’

ofc you agreed bc kunimi was best boi and you just wanted him to have enough sleep for once

after class, he waited for you to finish packing up and when you finished, yall left the classroom

until another guy with a spiky hairstyle joined you and you noticed him as the guy who sometimes came over to eat lunch with kunimi

‘oh, hello l/n-san’

you smiled gently

‘drop the formalities, kindaichi-kun. its only fair.’

he nodded before walking beside kunimi

‘kindaichi, l/n might be our new manager’

the onion head excitedly looked at you

‘really?! yes! so we dont have to fill our bottles ourselves anymore!’

kunimi glared at him and slapped his stomach

‘shes our manager, not our maid’

you laughed but placed an arm on him

‘its okay. i was a manager for my middle school volleyball team so i know a little bit about being one’

the two shared a look

god, they really hit the jackpot

as yall walked closer to the gym, you noticed the big pile of girls huddling at the corner

kunimi sighed

‘l/n, ill warn you ahead of time of our captain. hes kinda,,,, too much’

but you flashed him a smile

‘hes not the first one ive handled’

oml player-chan!!!

so when you opened the door and entered the gym and oikawa hit you with his normal antics, you just stared at him

‘okay and?’

hanamaki and mattsun howled before rushing to you and grabbing you in a hug

‘girls like her really exist!!’

you gave kunimi and kindaichi a signal of help and they nodded before gently prying the senpais off of you

‘senpai, please’

you gave kunimi a grateful nod

coach irihata went up to you bc wow, kunimi has a friend with of another gender?

‘how can we help you, miss?’

‘im l/n y/n, first year, and id like to apply as the manager’

internally, the coach sighed bc you werent the first one to apply

the reason they havent had a manager for years was bc of oikawa’s fangirls hiding themselves under that false facade

but he saw you brush off that comment oikawa make with no hint of fluster or blush on your face so he decides to give you a trial run, in guise of seeing if you could handle these chaotic boys

‘do you have any experience as manager? or do we need to teach you the ropes?’

‘i was a manager for 3 years in my middle school volleyball’

he nodded

‘ill give you one month. a trial run of a month to test the waters’

you agreed and your trial run began

kunimi mentioned that morning practice starts at 6 am sharp so you set your alarm for 5 to get ready and get to school on time before the boys

you remembered how to set up the nets so you quickly put them out (using a step stool bc we short) and ran to get the basket of balls

their water bottles were filled and you were in the middle of lugging the big basket of towels when the third years entered

the 4 of them usually came earlier than the rest so they saw you dragging the basket of fresh towels and wipe your sweat before smiling at the work youve done

iwa was so happy bc it was usually him who did this stuff and now that he had someone do it for him, it was like a god-send

oikawa’s eyes shone and he waved at you

‘yohoo, y/n-chan!’

you cringed at the loud voice of the famous oikawa tooru

‘hello, oikawa-san’

he chuckled at your politeness before hugging you

‘you did all this for us? youre so cute, y/n-chan!’

instead of the normal blush and love-struck eyes, you were actually very uncomfortable of the sudden skinship and you quickly ran to the side when iwa hit him at the head

‘shittykawa! leave her alone!’

‘iwa-chan!’

makki and mattsun stood next to you as the boys did their usual fight

‘is this all an act or are you really not attracted to oikawa?’

mattsun shot him a surprised look bc why was he so straightforward

but you just shrugged

‘hes cute, i admit. but ive seen much cuter and the boys in my middle school team was basically full of him so,,, and i hate guys who think theyre all that just bc theyre blessed w a pretty face. if anything, ill probably go for iwaizumi-san’

pop off S I S T E R!!!

you just won the heart of these two

slowly but surely, they all came to accept you and iwa straight out loves you bc you maintained this routine for the whole month of your trial run

and you still remained indifferent of oikawa’s advances and he was even impressed and slightly agitated that you werent paying attention to him

‘y/n-chan, one date! just one!’

you huffed before looking up from your clipboard

‘i like men, oikawa-san. not boys’

that comment made the guys shriek

‘y/n-chan! youre just a first year! you dont need a man!’

‘youre not a man, oikawa!’

you left oikawa to be tormented by his teammates and went to go and hand over the report to the coach

he was impressed by the notes you made bc they were ones he even missed

like the split-second of hesitation that kindaichi usually has that goes unnoticed but you immediately saw

or the wince oikawa has whenever he so much as jumps an inch

you could even tell the difference between iwa’s spike and if he was being easy or he was going full-out

this added on to the fact that the boys loved you and irihata actually saw kunimi try more

but he thinks its only to earn your praises

‘y/n, youre officially the team manager’

yall celebrated at the normal hang-out spot which was the ramen shop and it truly shocked you at how much these boys ate

granted, this was the first time you ate together but you didnt expect them to eat nearly 5 bowls each

you could only finish 2 and you already feel like throwing up

‘honestly, how do you guys not gain weight after this?’

the table you sat at, iwa, kindaichi, mattsun, and kunimi, looked at you and shrugged

‘i work out’

‘i run’

‘i fast’

‘i poop it out’

lmao im sorry i cackled too hard at this

you stared blankly at mattsun’s answer who said it so seriously that you snorted a laugh

they watched you and your laughter bc you havent really expressed yourself as much

so they made it their goal to see you laugh more

‘y/n-chan! you need to eat more!’

oikawa shouted, clearly food drunk, but you shook your head aggressively

‘i only planned to eat one bowl but he just had to shove another down my throat’

‘but you need to grow, y/n-chan!’

‘i want to grow taller! not wider!!’

As a manager:

oh boy

you basically grew into kinda their mom

‘oikawa-san! you need to rest your knee or youre going to hurt yourself! i will drag you home myself!’

‘kunimi, if you try to get this one more spike, i’ll buy you a bag of those caramel bites you like’

‘iwa-san! if you hit oikawa-san too much, youll destroy the little braincells he has!’

‘yahaba-san, nice dump!’

‘is your knee okay, watari-san?’

yall really forget that watari and yahaba exist sometimes smh

it was part of the work

keeping up with seijoh

so to keep them encouraged, you gave them praises that they always demand for and they always turn to you whenever they did something good

mattsun gives you a look whenever he blocks iwa’s spikes and you give kindaichi a head pat whenever he blocks some too

bc of how you are with them, sometimes, they forget that you are actually just a first year

they get shocked whenever you walk in with kunimi and kindaichi and talk about the current homework bc it slips their mind that their hard-working manager was actually just a 15-year-old girl

so, they try to ease the burden whenever they can

like iwa offering to help you whenever you have to take their jerseys to the laundrymat

or offering to help you with your assignments since theyve only been through it once

more like watari, yahaba, and iwa bc the matsuhana are clueless and acts like they completely skipped that grade

also

!!!!

oikawa’s fangirls ltr dont leave you alone!!!

now, its known that youre the manager of the volleyball team bc oikawa has boasted about your efforts and such

this obvs ticked off a bunch of girls bc they were jealous that you got to spend more time in a single practice with their precious oikawa-senpai than they have their entire lives

more than once theyve cornered you to threaten you to stay away from their senpai or youll have something coming for you

you never take them seriously bc you can fight too and you just give them a look and push them away

but this one time

TRIGGER WARNING-START

okay tea

the self-proclaimed president of the oikawa tooru fanclub, kenta miyo, cornered you at the bathroom with her other minions

you were just washing your hands and drying them off when she marched up to you and grabbed your hair before tugging it back

obviously you were surprised and shouted

‘oi! what the hell?!’

‘you slut! you need to stay away from my tooru, got it?!’

ehm what

you hissed and wrenched her arm from your hair and pushed her away

your hair was now a mess and you were fuming, already sick and tired of the torture these girls put you through

‘he belongs to himself, not you! so stop being delusional and leave me alone already!’

she signalled for the girls to hold on to you which you slapped away but they forcefully grabbed your arm while you kicked at them and struggle to get out of their hold

jesus what do these girls eat

miyo watches you struggle with a smile and cackles

‘oh? no fight anymore, little kouhai?’

you glared at her

‘i dont want to beat yall up bc id get yelled at by tooru so you need to let me go or regret it’

at the mention of his first name, her eyes widened and her face twisted and she slapped you

‘oi! respect your senpai, you brat! dont you ever say oikawa’s first name!’

your lips curled

‘oh? thats funny, because he actually told me to call him that since he wants his cute little manager to be very comfortable with him’

you achieved a feat that she has been working to get her entire high school life and miyo was not happy

‘ive been with him for 3 years and you just suddenly show up out of nowhere and call him that?! i dont think so!’

she had her hands around your neck and you gripped her arms, making her wince

but you laughed at that comment

‘heh, thats pathetic, isn’t it? here you are, my senpai, who has been vying for his attention for 3 years only to be ignored yet a mere first year, who shows up out of nowhere, has been asked to a date nearly a million times every day. that must be tough’

she shrieked at that comment and threw you on the floor, making you accidentally hit your head at the edge of the sink

yall im actually so bothered by this scene and im wincing as im typing

you bit your lip to prevent any sound of pain to escape bc you knew thats what she wanted to hear from you

but you werent going to give her the satisfaction

instead, you looked up at her, hatred swirling in your eyes

‘youre freaking psycho, you know that? once tooru and hajime knows about this, theyre going to give you hell. they wont ever let this go bc im the manager of their prized team and their little baby sister. so go ahead, do what you want with me. bc i paid too much for these nails to be tainted by dirt like you’

saiyo, a girl you noticed to be watari’s classmate when you went and visited him, nervously tugged on miyo’s jacket

‘miyo, we should go-’

‘SHES BLUFFING. AND HERE, SINCE YOUR SOCCERFIELD FOREHEAD IS BLEEDING, LET ME HELP WASH IT OUT’

and she poured over a carton of banana milk over you, making you wince at the sticky and cold liquid

the tough facade was crumbling and you were now screaming for help in your head, hoping that stupid theory from yahaba about team telepathy to work

but it didnt

TRIGGER WARNING-END

when miyo and her girls left, you sat on the floor, soaked and sticky and bleeding

then you begin to cry angry tears

you were angry that you were being treated like this just bc you were a manager

you were angry that you let them do that to you

you were angry that you prized your nails more than punching her square in the nose

you were just angry

periodt

staggering on your own feet, you stood up and leaned on the sink, eyes widening at the dripping red liquid from the gash on your forehead, staining the porcelain sink

you were stupid and unconsciously touched it making you wince

‘shit, that hurts’

you whined quietly

there was little you can do with toilet paper and water to clean yourself up but you managed to at least stop the bleeding

you knew you had to be put on concussion protocol just in case bc you that hit was quite hard but at the moment, that wasnt your concern

practice has already started and this was the first time you werent present for daily practice

this was confirmed at the constant buzzing of your phone in your skirt pocket which you didnt listen to and instead, started thinking of ways to go to your locker and get your stuff and fake being sick but at the same time, not be seen and relayed to the team

time was ticking and you had to come up with a plan fast before oikawa will send the team to come looking around the building for you

once you looked at your reflection and smiled big, you decided it was enough to not show the pain you were in right now

girl im hurting for you

you peeked out of the bathroom door and saw the coast was clear so you quickly ran to your classroom, which was thankfully empty, and quickly grabbed your things

but as you were packing up, the tears just kept falling

it didnt stop as you bolted down the stairs, using your cardigan to hide your face from the public

once you were safely out of school grounds, you finally took out your phone and reviewed through all the worried and concerned texts from the team group chat

but you just replied, ‘im fine but i just feel really sick right now. girl stuff’

you smirked, knowing that would keep the boys away

but oikawa had to go and ask you to call him

‘y/n-chan! do you want oikawa-senpai to come over with chocolates and ice cream?! wings or no wings?!’

your jaw dropped at the question and clearly scandalized by the question

the team was too as shouting began and you could faintly hear iwa scream, ‘oh my god, shittykawa!’

‘im seriously okay, oikawa-san. i just need to be alone right now and ill try and get some sleep. good bye’

then you hung up

there was no way you could tell them

they were in their last year anyways so doing something about it wouldnt matter

and you were strong

but apparently not strong enough to fight them off though

you would cover the wound with concealer and continue on with practice tomorrow as if everything was normal

but there was only so much you could take

just yesterday, they trashed your locker and a week ago, they took your bento and threw it away

you even got into a fight with this one girl but she scampered away, too scared to do anything alone

so you were actually just tired and want everyone to leave you alone

believe me, youve thought of quitting sometimes

but youve actually created a bond with these boys

like when you take hanamaki to get cream puffs whenever he loses against iwa in arm wrestling

or when yahaba calls you at ungodly hours to express his worries for next year and to fill oikawa’s shoes

it was simple moments that you shared with each player that kept you from not leaving

soon, you found yourself crying again and the looks pedestrians were giving you was starting to make you uncomfortable

a girl, with her gross hair in a bun, puffy eyes with a bleeding wound and walking down the street

that was a sight

so you cut a corner to an alley by your house to escape from the judging eyes and you were too busy wiping your eyes to see a boy who was crouched down on the floor and ended up walking over him

omg my baby kyoken hello luv!!!!

you gasped and you were surprised and quickly apologized

kyotani was originally about to yell at you, no matter what, but he saw the state you were in and concluded you were either from a fight or was beaten up

he recognized that and decided to just glare at you and go back to feeding the stray dogs and cats

you breathed a sigh in relief when he didnt yell at you bc that wouldve been the last thing you needed today

‘sir, im sorry for hitting you. if there is something i could do for you, dont hesitate’

he ignored you and you focused on him paying attention to the strays

going into your backpack, you had a milk carton and a sausage stick from earlier

you used your thermos lid to serve as the milk bowl for the cats while you peeled open the meat and used your scissors to cut chunks of it for the dogs to have some

kyotani watched as you went into action to feeding the animals that people usually ignored

he knew you

well, he recognized you

when he watched from the top of the gym, he saw you as their manager who ran around and helped everyone

sure, he still didnt trust you

but he watched you grin and smile as the animals started to eat

‘im in a hurry right now so i have to go but ill feed you again tomorrow, okay? you too, stranger-san. ill bring food for you too’

then you stood up and ran away, probably in a hurry to fix that wound

he wouldve offered to treat it for you but he remained silent, watching the cats mewl at the now empty lid

the next day, oikawa was worried for you and when he saw you at early morning practice, he practically glomped to your side

‘y/n-chan! you okay?! oikawa-senpai was so worried for you!’

you cringed but nodded

‘im okay, oikawa-san’

‘senpai, y/n-chan! call me senpai!’

‘im not going to feed into your kink, oikawa-san’

*cue everyone busting a lung*

to this day, no one still knew what happened to you

you kept it quiet and you were sure you got everything handled

except for one person

kyotani was smart and for some reason he knew you got beat up by the fangirls and the perpetrators were easily found bc he saw them huddled around your locker, probably trashing it again, and lets just say,

no one is def going to mess w you now

back to manager moments!!

during practice matches, the boys rally around you to prevent other teams from sweet-talking you

they make sure no one gets past them and always have excuses to get your attention

you knew what they were doing but you pretended not to, heart warming at their protectiveness and hunger for your attention

even though you have your own jacket, the team gives you theirs all the time like oikawa has his special team jacket w his name at the back and when he feels threatened by schools like johzenji, he makes you wear it

‘youre mine, y/n-chan and i want that blondie to know’

‘ehm, no, oikawa-san. im iwaizumi-san’s’

oikawa screamed

lmao training camps w them is CHAOTIC

YOU WANT TO CRYYYYYY

OIKAWA IS CRYING BC IWAIZUMI IS BEATING HIM UP, MATSUHANA ARE FREAKING OUT THE FIRST YEARS ABOUT THE GHOSTS IN THE WOODS AND NOW KINDAICHI REFUSES TO LET GO OF YOU, WATARI GOT LOST GOING TO THE BATHROOM AND YAHABA IS SCREAMING ABOUT THE WEATHER MESSING UP HIS HAIR AND MAKING IT FRIZZY

reminder: threaten to quit everytime they get too much

your hugs are the best!!!!

you have a special hug for every player

oikawa gets his favorite which was the normal arm around the waist with your arms around his neck while he snuggles in your neck

iwa gets flustered easily so you hug him from behind so you cant see his flustered look

mattsun actually likes the jumping in the air so he catches you type of hug

makki is more tame and has his arms around your shoulder with his chin on your head

yahaba is the twirly kind where he just picks you up and swings you around

watari also gets flustered easily so he likes the one-arm hugs

kindaichi gets blushy at the slightest touch from you but he gives you a hug from behind you himself where he can bury his face in your hair while you caress his arms

kunimi, now he likes it when you squeeze him extremely tight bc it makes him feel loved and feel alive

kyo doesnt even talk to you what makes you think you can give him a hug

their lost for shiratorizawa really broke them though

you made them their own bentos for nearly a week to keep them encouraged and gave oikawa extra attention to keep him from sulking or practicing late

‘oikawa-senpai, lets go watch that new movie later’

‘S-S-SENPAI?!’

then the arrival of our baby kyoken

yahaba was moody the whole practice and you were currently trying to keep him from spiking a ball to someone

‘even just today, he’s late’

‘who?’

‘that stupid dog’

he just keeps mumbling and grunting

and then the said dog arrived

you peaked out from behind iwaizumi, who protectively went in front of you

shock ran through you and you pointed at him

‘puppy-kun!’

lmao puppy what

youve called him that since he refused to tell you his name, but you call him that bc he paid special attention to this one baby beagle

he raised a hand in greeting and you gave him a smile

‘youre a player here, too?!’

he ‘glared’ at you but nodded stiffly

the team really thought that he would lash out at you but he is surprisingly tolerant

the power of the manager

he still hasnt talked to you but he does respond to you and even helps you with chores, still not talking ofc

hes so tsun tsun and he deserves my heart yall

however, youve heard him talk to iwaizumi, and iwaizumi only, so youve heard his voice before

ngl, you were flustered by how gruff and deep it was

then their loss to karasuno

bruh, it was KARASUNO

the entire team fell apart and after the match, each of them ran away from you to stop lashing out

you were also on the verge of crying, seeing the broken look on your third years

your precious third years

you decided to give them their own space but you heard a loud banging sound from the bathroom

yahaba and watari were outside, clearly trying to talk to someone in there on coming out but it got louder

okay you were lowkey like, ‘hm, i should not be here’

but you recognized that voice

you knocked at the boys door to be respectful

‘kyo-san? its me, y/n’

he was silent but he did unlock it

you took this as a sign to enter and you gave yahaba and watari a smile

‘i’ll be fine. go to kindaichi and kunimi. they need your comfort right now’

tbh, you were surprised the bathroom was still intact but you saw the stall door at the very end being rattled and shaken

you remained by the door but you wanted to go to him

‘kyo-san, please come out so i can treat your injuries’

he expected you to say those words like ‘its okay’ or ‘theres always next year’ but you didnt

instead, you knew he was hurt and wanted to help him

he continued to give a few punches to the wall and the door before emerging

you wordlessly treated the wounds and offered your hand

‘im here, kyo-san. dont worry, im right here’

at the ramen shop, you told them to eat as much as they want and wordlessly gave them your card, slightly crying inside bc you know this was going to be like over a hundred dollars

but you were treating the boys bc they deserved it

you sat beside kindaichi, who was just sobbing and apologizing, so you were wiping his tears and holding his hand under the table

this precious babie

bruh i was sobbing when i watched this part like uuggghhhh

after dinner, you walked with the other third years, knowing they would go to the gym, so you gave everyone else your special hugs before sending them home

‘text me when you arrive safely, okay?’

‘yes, mom’

‘KINDAICHI WHAT’

oikawa’s speech made you cry bc despite only knowing them for not even a year, you already feel like a family

you didnt want your family to be broken but you knew they would all go their separate ways eventually

there was a big hug pile of third years on the side where you took a picture and sent it to the group chat

you had to eventually go home after helping them clean up and when you checked your phone, a fresh batch of tears rolled down

each from every person on the team but with the same sentence and same words

‘we love you, l/n y/n. thanks for everything.’

ngl i dont think this was that good and its like 8 in the morning and im extremely tired

i want to do karasuno, nekoma, and fukurodani but im so exhausted i cannot right now

❧ pairings: karasuno x gn!reader, nekoma x gn!reader, seijoh x gn!reader

❧ synopsis: living in the same house with the boys for content sounds cool and all until you realized just how tiring it could be

❧ genre: headcanons, fluff, crack

❧ warnings: cursing, questionable thirst comments

Karasuno High

- okay first off LET'S TALK ABOUT THE INTERIOR OF THIS HOUSE

- it's a fucking mess

- none of the furnitures match???

- like you can see tsukki's huge godzilla statue by the front door and beside it could be asahi's peonies or something

- y'all get roasted by fans because of your taste but it's also what makes you special than the other houses yknow *cough* nekoma *cough*

- being rich tiktok stars and all, of course you own a jacuzzi

- which is a HUGE mistake cause kageyama drowned hinata once during a live

- you tried to help i swear but it's kinda hard when you have to record everything at the same time :>

- content >>>> anything

- it doesn't help the fact that nishinoya and tanaka are just there ogling at the sight of you and kiyoko in a swimsuit

- no one really cleans it now so it's left there to rot smh

- honestly y'all would be living off of takeouts if it weren't for suga and the girls

- they're in charge of cooking while daichi and asahi does the financial stuff for the house

- the others just kinda stay there ig,,,

- videos mostly consists of pranks and vlogs

- something like the vlog squad?

- asahi and hinata being the no.1 victim cause they always fall for it

- y'all made asahi mad once because you went too far

- ASAHI.

- it's a cursed subject in the house now and no one dares to talk about it

- you guys also went to disneyland for a vlog once and almost left kageyama behind skhcdijcid

- you and the others were literally halfway home until you read one of the comments

- "where's kageyama????"

- daichi DRIFTED the fuck out of the car

- the whole team had to buy him a carton of milk each to compensate

Nekoma High

- most of you guys started from twitch

- everyone was literally minding their own business and all, until kuroo rushes in and goes:

- "let's make a streamers house!!!!"

- y'all had some decent followings but you guys just didn't reach that hypehouse level y'know??

- until you made a tiktok account and blew up immediately, the others joining the bandwagon

- the amount of shippers you guys have are insane

- kuroo did the 'kissing my bestfriend' trend on you once and they went NUTS

- "what happened to kenma???? :("

- "did lev and y/n break up????? ??"

- "yamamoto's punching the air rn"

- lit rally a harem luv xx

- you still haven't forgiven kuroo 'til this day

- but hey at least y'all got clout

- not even a surprise but you guys have mad beef with karasuno

- mainly friendly rivalry though, we stan an uncontroversial household <3

- there's a series going on rn called "karasuno vs nekoma" and it's really just duets of you guys throwing random insults at each other

- there's even a special episode where karasuno visited your house and played games with you!!!

- playing overcooked does not end well when kuroo and daichi's always at each other's neck

- honestly your followers are theirs too by now

- your house is surprisingly super organized and clean, unlike karasuno's

- sure, lev may break some vases here and there but it's nothing to worry about when you got yaku and kuroo watching his every move

- if he does do some stupid shit though, all you really need to do is just lock him out of the house and boom, problem solved!!1!

- all in all, nekoma shares one (1) braincell and it's yours and kenma's

Aobajohsai High

- the Fuckboi ™ house

- the boys gained hype for being shirtless and using gray sweatpants

- i mean, you can't blame them when they have bodies that resemble greek gods

- but you really question some of your life choices when you read the comments

- "you think oikawa would let me swallow his kids if i ask nicely?"

- "iwaizumi's arms are getting so big pls i want him to smash my head to smithereens"

- "i'm tryna get y/n to break my neck into two but ig we just don't get what we want in life"

- MOVING ON

- you guys mainly do tiktok dance trends

- and by that i mean swaying your hips or doing body rolls

- you tried to teach them how to throw it back but they all end up looking like mf grasshoppers

- besides hanamaki tho, homie gets an A++

- okay, but amidst their fuckboy personas the boys actually care a lot about you

- sometimes you get more hate than the usual and it really decreases your self esteem

- oikawa's already replying to the comments with his shady ass. kunimi, matsukawa and kindaichi's by your side comforting you, iwaizumi and kyotani preparing to throw hands

- it was these moments when you're really thankful of them and would not replace them any other way

hq boys as the crimes they’d commit

warnings: CRIMES, crackfic, probably many typos idk i’m so tired lmaooo, cursing, drinking ??? idfk 😩💦

an: and i did this for what?? inspired by hq hcs royalty @sugardaddykenma @hina-wit-da-glock (AJSKSJ SORRY FOR TAGGING Y’ALL IF YOU SEE THIS, IT IS DEF NOT UP TO PAR W Y’ALLS WORKS ILY)

karasuno

sawamura daichi- insurance fraud!! somehow this is such a dad crime to commit?? dadchi didn’t try (dumb excuse, how do you accidentally commit insurance fraud smh) to commit insurance fraud but at one point in his late-thirties, he was very very broke and was already working as much as possible so, he decided to fake an ankle injury, as you do, and filed a bunch of claims which made him bank. daichi kept doing it until he was able to quit one of his jobs and buy himself a really nice suit and a rolex (uhhh 🥵). he somehow never got caught tho and to this day, none of his friends know how he was able to afford a tesla on a cop’s salary (sorry daichi but acab 😔✨)

sugawara kōshi- child abandonment!! ok you can try and fight me on this but i feel in my bones that suga absolutely despises children. he can tolerate ages 10+ but anything younger than that, he will punt them into the next dimension. the thing is, people just assume he likes kids because of how good he is with his team which is why his aunt begged him to babysit his nephew taro. taro was being an absolute brat when suga took him out for the day and he was 👉👈 this close to snapping. he put taro down for like 3 seconds to pay for their ice cream and when he turned back, the demon spawn was gone. he panicked, running around the park looking for taro when it turns out, taro was just bent down behind the bench. some random karen called the police and suga has never craved murder more.

nishinoya yuu- arson!! you CANNOT tell me nishinoya doesn’t have a ~murder~ playlist that he listens to to get himself hype (me too noya, me too). one night, he got a lil too hype listening to start a riot by duckwrth and watching demolition videos on youtube. he snuck out of his house to an empty shed like 30 minutes away and maybe... lit it on fire while genocide by lil darkie played on a speaker nearby. what he did NOT anticipate was the absolute size of the fire so he freaked out and called the firefighters who promptly called the police. he didn’t want to get grounded so he called daichi to bail him out. daichi still told noya’s parents 😔.

tanaka ryūnosuke- vandalism!! tanaka had been on alt tiktok and saw a group of cool friends spray painting an abandoned building. he thought “that’s cool, lemme do that!” but then he realized he had no friends (AHDGS JK I LOVE TANAKA). he asked nishinoya who was grounded from the arson incident and he knew he definitely couldn’t ask daichi, suga, asahi, or enoshita so he decided to go it alone. that proved to be a MASSIVE mistake. he got the supplies, arrived to the building of his choice (thanks saeko :3), and decided to spray paint a huge p3ni5 in bright red paint. he finished “successfully” and zoomed back home. what he didn’t realize with his two-and-a-half braincells is that he signed his glorious piece with his full name. the cops were at his house the next morning...🧍

hinata shoyō- forgery!! hinata did NOT think that forgery was even a crime. how was he supposed to know that he wasn’t allowed to copy his mom’s signature on a permission form! all he wanted was to go to an overnight training camp 😿

kageyama tobio- attempted murder!! kageyama swears it sounds worse than was and he is absolutely incorrect. what happened was so much worse. he and hinata were having a competition to see who could hold their breath the longest underwater (you can’t tell me they haven’t done some dumbass shit like this) and kageyma lost almost instantly (he has the tiny lungs of an asthmatic). he didn’t want hinata to notice so he held hinata’s head under the water for like 10 seconds. suga walked in though, saw hinata thrashing around in the water and immediately called the police. kageyama never forgave him.

tsukishima kei- cyberbullying!! first of all, i had no idea you could get arrested for cyber bullying!? that being said, neither did tsukishima who spent 80% of his time making fun of people online (and on his real account!! bold). eventually one of the people he bullied (hinata) reported him on instagram and his very lame account was deleted (pls don’t bully people online 😤).

yamaguchi tadashi- shoplifting!! andjksh this is so funny because this scenario has happened to me and i can just SEE this happening to poor tadashi. yamaguchi gets super late night cravings (and usually tsukki will walk with him at like 3 am 🥺 nEWAYS) so he’ll sneak out and walk to the mini-mart near his house. one night, he was so tired but also super hungry so he went onto his nightly routine and basically sleepwalked into the store. he picked out his favorite chips and candy bar (which are sour cream&onion lays and milky ways in case you were wondering 😌✨) and just... walked out the store without paying. the store clerk was mysteriously missing so yamaguchi made it all the way home, ate half the bag of chips and passed out without realizing what he’d done. once he did, he cried for 2 hours straight.

nekoma

kuroo tetsurō- telemarketing fraud!! kuroo originally did telemarketing fraud as a joke?? like he was trying to prank call someone pretending that they had lost their information and they actually gave it to him??? he was mildly concerned but even more excited. he did it over and over again but he never used the info for anything. to this day, kuroo literally has a notebook full of credit card numbers and bank account passwords but he refuses to use it because he believes it’s ✨wrong✨(but it isn’t wrong to take all that information in the first place under false pretenses, not realizing that once people find out, they are forced to close credit cards and accounts but go off self righteous king). once he brought the book up to kenma and he offered to sell it on the dark web. now kuroo feels less bad about what he’s done! :D

kozume kenma- computer crime!! pfttt this one seems kinda obvious but what do you expect from kenma :). he spends so much time on the internet, he’s definitely picked up some less than legal skills that still help him now 👀. kenma did little mini crimes like getting into other people’s wifi but his crowning achievement was when he hacked into the minneapolis pd website and had it so when you opened the page, a black lives matter screen came up. he never told anyone that it was him who did it but he thinks it’s the best he’s ever done.

yaku morisuke- racketeering!! yaku, the feral king, ran an underground gambling ring in the basement of nekoma (do they have basements?? who knows! i don’t!) during his third year. the only reason it didn’t get shut down was because coach nekomata took a portion of yaku’s profits whenever he won (which was literally all the time). everyone on the team has lost money to him which is why they never play with him anymore. they won’t even let yaku play monopoly 😔.

haiba lev- indecent exposure!! poor lev’s head is so empty, he tends to fall for whatever pranks his senpai’s do to him. this time kuroo had somehow convinced him that in order to grow his schlong, he had to run outside naked for 10 minutes because the moonlight had special growing properties. lev was a lil scared ngl because he was already superrr tall and didn’t need to grow his height (or his dick ((boy is hung)) but poor lev is insecure) but he did it anyway. long story short, an old woman saw him parading around the neighborhood naked and called el policia. 0/10 dick did NOT grow and had to spend a night in jail naked 😿

aoba johsai

oikawa tōru- prostitution!! KAKKAKA iwazumi made fun of oikawa for being so shitty and said that he couldn’t pick up anyone if he tried. flattykawa took this as a personal challenge and went out onto the street, asking people if they’d have sex with him. with the way he was asking (and the way he was dressed), people assumed he was a paid w h o r e and someone eventually reported him. iwazumi had to pick oikawa up from the station- he never let him live this one down.

iwaizumi hajime- battery!! it wasn’t technically battery but oikawa is a lil bitch and overreacts (at least in his words -_-). the amount of times iwa-chan has beat the absolute shit out of oikawa is uNREAL. he just can’t handle the stupidity sometimes so he just smacks the crap outta him. not for real for real but the way oikawa reacts, you’d think a murder was occurring. one time, shittykawa screeched so loud, they got a noise complaint -_- hajime hates it in these streets.

matsukawa issei & hanamaki takahiro- conspiracy!! issei and hiro have a secret blog where they discuss conspiracy theories and such but one day, hiro found an article that explained how jfk’s death was an inside job. he sent it to issei who began to theorize how HE’D do it. that devolved into a massive thread on their blog of how’d they murder a president which blew up and caught the attention of the cia who sent the a letter telling them to quietly delete the blog. they did because they were terrified but they kept the letter and now it’s framed in issei’s apartment.

kyōtani kentarō- assault!! baby is an angry little boy but for all the right reasons. he was at a bar (when he’s all grown up, duh) and he spotted an absolute drunk creep hitting on a girl who clearlyyyy did not reciprocate his feelings. kyōtani, being the respectful king that he is, went over to the guy, pulled him by the jacket and beat. the. shit. out of him. while the bartender was happy with the fact that the creep was out, he was not impressed with the damage to his bar. he just sent kyōtani out who casually adjusted his leather jacket and rings, and hopped on his motorcycle to ride away into the night. i am the FATTEST simp for this man ONG 🥴

shiratorizawa

ushijima wakatoshi- stalking!! poor ushijima has no idea how intimidating he can be. he was on a train late at night after practice and the woman sitting across from him left her purse sitting on the seat. being the gentleman that he is, he took the purse and followed her to return it. the only problem is that the closer he got, the faster she ran and when he tried to speak (yknow with his scary, deep, baritone voice), the woman screeched and called the cops on him because he was a “strange, big man who was following her home.” when the police showed up, ushijima was painfully confused and just held up this tiny ass purse in his massive hands. the cops laughed.

tendō satori- ???!! no one knows what crimes (or how many 😳) tendō has committed but each of his teammates have different ideas- ushijima: “i don’t believe tendou is capable of committing any sort of felony. well, maybe murder”; semi: “of COURSE he’s capable of crimes??! do you know how many times i’ve seen him come into the dorm with a suspicious stain of red on his sweater?? *shudders* if i end up dead, tendō did it...” in actuality, the only crime tendō has committed is ~drugs~ but he’s not bouta tell his friends that.

goshiki tsutomu- would be a VICTIM!! my baby tsutomu would NEVER commit a crime!!! i love this man with my everything and the only crime he’s committed is being too damn cute 😤🥺

Heyyy, could you do a headcannon post for tsukki, kenma, suga, Kageyama, and kurro, and how they would go about proposing to their s/o. I love your writing btw!!! 💜

proposal hcs make me so sOFT, and thank you so much 🥺🥺🥺 It means a lot! I’m going to bury myself in these hcs to get rid of the stress my uni are giving me rn also kageyama’s is so long omg i got a little carried away

slight timeskip spoilers (kenma, sugawara, kageyama, kuroo)

Requests are open!

Proposal Headcanons - Tsukishima, Kenma, Sugawara, Kageyama and Kuroo

Tsukishima:

Tsukishima wasn’t one for extravagant publics displays of love and affection, so his proposal wouldn’t be either

he wanted it to be natural, not some crazy, over-the-top event that had everyone in the neighbourhood witnessing

it would be around 5-10 years (depending on how old you were when you started dating) of being together when Tsukishima decided he wanted to marry you, it’s not that he never thought about it, he just wanted to be sure this was the right decision for both of you

he had mentioned marriage to you one night a few months before proposing to test the waters and see your opinion so that he could gauge whether you would say yes or not

he took Yamaguchi with him to pick out a ring, he was great friends with you too so he knew your style and preferences well to help out Tsukishima

the proposal itself what somewhat planned, he knew the day he was going to do it but, other than that, he left it open to change

the two of you had gone for an evening walk across a pathway that overlooked the town, something you two do often to wind down

you two hadn’t spoke much, a comfortable, warm silence surrounding you besides pointing out the odd squirrel or brief check-ups on each others day

both of you had stopped at a railing on your walk, leaning against it to watch the sun set over the tall buildings

his hand was in yours, brushing his thumb over the back of it as he looked out to the view

“I love you (Y/N),” his voice was quiet but it seemed certain

he wasn’t the kind of man that told you he loved you multiple times a day, it was reserved for special moments and the times where he couldn’t get how lucky he was to have you out of his mind

“I love you too Kei,” you didn’t need to be loud, or shout your confession to the world to know that you both meant it deeply

“Marry me,” it sounded more like a instruction than a question and his gaze hadn’t left the sky

“W-what?” had you heard him wrong? was this a joke?

he turned his eyes to you, locking them with yours - this was the most serious and sincere you had ever seen him

“Marry me,” he repeated

you stood with your mouth slightly open, eyes wide as he pulled out a box from his pocket, opening it to display a simple, yet stunning ring

“I always thought that if you went for what you truly wanted, it would just end in pain and disappointment, that all the effort and sentiment would be for nothing, but with you it’s so easy. I might never be, but I want to become the best man for you, that you deserve, so marry me.”

Kenma:

gets married for tax purposes

marriage was not something Kenma had ever though about in his life growing up

he never thought he would get married or find someone he had a connection with and, honestly, he was fine with that

he didn’t really see the appeal of it in the first place

it wasn’t until many years down the line of being with you and his friends around him getting into relationships when he started to consider the possibility

the first time it came into his head was at Kuroo’s wedding

he spent most of the time wishing he could go home and get out of this uncomfortable suit, but there were times when he say Kuroo’s beaming smile that he was glad he came

some of the ex-nekoma team members had poked at him with questions of when he was going to get ‘hitched’, which he responded to with a sigh

he certainly wasn’t going to propose because others told him he needed to

the next time it crossed his mind was when he started a new game that his fans had recommended he play

it was a romance game which wasn’t his usual go-to genre, but it had incredible reviews and created a storm in the gaming world so he thought he might as well check it out

through the game he got to witness an endearing story of a couple that went at odds to be together

the story delved into their married life and all the little things they enjoyed together through the years

he didn’t really want to admit it, but it did make him feel a little emotional

he saw himself and you in the characters, as if he was watching his own life play out on his screen

every now and then you and Kenma played some games together so you could spend time with him and he could show you want had been interesting him lately, so he decided to show you this game

you thought it was adorable, so heartwarming yet a little sad at points, but you had always been a little more outwardly emotional then Kenma

“imagine if we got married haha, how cute would that be!” you gushed out in the moment without thinking as you played

“eh...I guess” it wasn’t really the answer you were hoping for, but at least he didn’t sound utterly disgusted by the thought

you continued to play with him for a while, tucked into his side and making comments every now and then

a particular endearing part was plating on the screen and your eyes shone as they fixated on the characters

he could tell by the glassy look that you were getting a little affected by the story, but you looked so cute

the way your lip pouted ever so slightly, and how you gripped at his hoodie, as if to steady yourself

he had a sudden rush of adoration for you, he really did love you and the last couple years of you living together had been wonderful, how he got to wake up beside you, do daily chores with you, how you supported him in his many careers

“Maybe we should get married,” he blurted out, you whipped your head towards him so fast you almost got whiplash

“Are you...proposing?” you questioned, with somewhat of a laugh in your voice

“huh...looks like I am.”

Sugawara:

Sugawara was sensible, mature, a little bit of a tease and sometimes chaotic if Daichi wasn’t watching but also traditional

he had often thought about what it would be like to grow up, get married and have a family

it wouldn’t take long before he knew he wanted to marry you, even throughout the 3 years you had already been together he had daydreamed about marrying you more times than he could count

from all the memories you had together, all the times you helped enough other in rough patches and the learning the two of you wanted to continue in the future had him certain that he wanted you beside him forever

so he set out his plan

he took his old teammates, Daichi and Asahi with him on a hunt to find the perfect ring

Daichi was there to keep him in check and calm his nerves, although Asahi was probably the most nervous and Asahi had a great eye for stylish, beautiful pieces due to his designing career

now it was time to plan

he didn’t want it to be crazy, but he wanted it to be something, a whole event in itself

so he scheduled a meal for the two of you and some of your friends

it was at quite a fancy restaurant in the evening and your group had its own secluded table at the back, surrounded with dividers from the rest of the restaurant

all of you spent the meal catching up and laughing, but Sugawara seemed a little quieter than usual

you had asked him if he was ok, but he just replied with an ‘of course!’ and a smile, so you let it be

Asahi was shaking but you put that off to general anxiety

you guys had ordered desserts and everyone had gotten theirs first

as the waiter brought yours over, the table went silent

the waiter came from your left, Sugawara on your right, so you had looked over as he came

as he set the plate down, you noticed the words spelled out in chocolate sauce

“Will you marry me?”

you gasped and turned towards Sugawara, who was now on one knee next to you, holding out an open ring box

“I have known for so long that I wanted to marry you. You’re beautiful, smart, courageous and so loving, and I want to have you by my side forever. I promise I will continue to grow as your partner and take care of you every step of the way, so, will you marry me?”

Kageyama:

the only thing in this boy’s brain is you and volleyball, its all his one braincell can cope with

that being said, he has never once thought about marriage

his whole life he has spend all his energy and focus on becoming a better player, the best setter he possibly can and standing on the court longer

but you were the first person to get him, to understand him and accept him as is while helping him improve and grow

you helped him to open up and communicate with people better

you helped him whenever he was frustrated with volleyball and a certain play he was working tirelessly on

you never once turned your back on him when he struggled or lost his temper

you were his partner, but it was different from a volleyball partner

he cared for you, every part of you, and always wanted to know if you were ok or spend time with you

you made him genuinely smile everyday and he knew that he wanted to be your partner for life

it came about when he was hanging out with Hinata on one of their rare days off to catch up

he had been talking about you constantly, expressing how much he loved you and adored you

“Why don’t you just marry them?” Hinata questioned with his held tilted, as if it was obvious

“w-what? Hinata boke!” he shouted as his face grew red and pushed Hinata aside

the two talked about it and Kageyama decided, very bashfully, that yeah, he should just marry you

but how does he ask you that?

he knew nothing about marriage or proposals, so he spend the next few weeks asking his friends, teammates, even his coach on how to propose to you

“Take them to an expensive restaurant!”

“Wouldn’t it be cute to propose in Disneyland??”

“Well, I proposed to my partner by sending them on a scavenger hunt”

he was bombarded with ideas, but none of them seemed right

none of them seemed like him

he was getting frustrated with the pressure of coming up with a good way to ask you to be his forever, it had to be perfect, it had to be special and it had to fit with your relationship

you noticed he was getting agitated a lot more recently, he was quieter and snapped more often, he stayed back later at the gym to train and he rarely ate dinner with you anymore

whenever you asked what the problem was, he replied with an ‘it’s nothing’ and stormed off

his teammates had noticed too and were less than pleased with his attitude as it affected their gameplay

one of his teammates had begged you to come to the gym and talk some sense into him when he started continuously overworking himself

it was 7pm when you set off from your house to the gym where he was still training

as you entered, you noticed that he was the only one here, hitting serve after serve that never seemed to land right

“Tobio,” you called out

“Baby,” you tried again but you couldn’t catch his attention from his deep focus on the ball

you walked over to him and lightly grabbed his arm, stopping him from serving the ball again

“Tobio, what’s wrong? Everyone is worried about you. Are you having trouble with a play? Because we can sort that out with your coach-”

he cut you off by mumbling something under his breath, much too quiet for you to hear

“What was that?”

“I want to ask you to marry me and I don’t know how,” he said louder this time, his eyes staring at the ball in his hand as he gripped it tightly

“O-oh, right...” you were stunned, speechless, this wasn’t something you thought you would hear from him

“Everyone’s been telling me how to do it, but none of them seem right,” his voice was low and his gaze still hadn’t let the ball

you put a finger under his chin and lifted his face towards you

“It doesn’t need to be what everyone else tells you, we can do things our own way,” you tried to comfort him with a smile and he simply stared back at you

“So go on then,” you were beaming at him by now, yet his face got even tighter with confusion

“Go on, ask me to marry you.”

his jaw hung wide open, his eyes seemed to be staring into your skull like he had seen a ghost, this is certainly not what he expected

he tried to speak a couple times, stumbling on his words as they got caught in his throat

“It’s ok, take your time,” you brushed your thumb over the back of his hand as you held it, encouraging him to continue

“w-will you....will...willyoumarryme?”

BONUS: you two picked out a ring together afterwards, this boy has no sense of style, don’t trust him by himself

Kuroo:

Kuroo had jokingly asked you to marry time multiple times throughout your relationship

the first couple times ended with you being a blushing mess while he teased you

but by now you just tell him to shut up go off sis

marrying you had always been part of the plan for him, just a natural progression of your relationship

while Kuroo can be quite the tease, he was extremely serious of his relationship with you and your future

he started off his plan by asking your dad if he would like to spend the day together, you know, father-son-in-law bonding time

what your dad wasn’t prepared for was Kuroo to turn up in a shirt, suit trousers and confess how he wanted to marry you

he had a whole speech prepared about how he would be the best husband for you, how he would be sure to take good care of you and, possibly, be the best father in the future if you planned to have children

you dad had to eventually shut him up as Kuroo kept going, saying how he would be delighted to have you marry the man

step one: check

now he needed to find the right ring

he had a look around at multiple stores but he couldn’t find anything that was unique enough to be called yours and that captured you or your relationship

since Kuroo had quite the high-paying job plus a little backing from a certain famous youtuber so the cost wasn’t an issue and he wanted to spoil you

so he got one custom made

he sat with a designer for hours creating the most stunning, distinctive ring that he knew you would love

step two: check

over the next couple days he planned a meet-up evening with your family and his where he would pop the question

you both had spent the day cooking and preparing for the evening before they all come to your house

you had all finished dinner and moved over to the living room to chat

Amidst all the chatter, Kuroo stood up and cleared his throat, grabbing everyone’s attention

“I have something I’d like to say,” he said with confidence, then turning to you with a grin

“The last few years with you have been perfect. We’ve had some ups and downs, but we have made so many amazing memories together. You really are my other half and I think everyday about how truly lucky I am to call you mine. You know me better than anyone else. I know I’ve asked you this a couple times in the past when we’re laughing together, but this time I’m serious,”

he got down on one knee, holding one of your hands while presenting the custom ring in the other

“will you do me the honour of marrying me?”

and the crowd goes wild

My first impressions from: The High School Heroes (episodes 1/2)

Taisei Manaka

Absolute king! This man deserves the world! He's got so much dedication and he's a great leader. Literally reminds me of an excitable puppy that wants to fight everything. Loves his mom and it's beautiful. Fingerless gloves? Random shirts? He makes them work. Adopted Yusuke and won't give him back

Yusuke Takigawa

He and Taisei are besties now and it's adorable. Definitely the group braincell (along with Hana) and it shows. Now he's surrounded by extroverts who just wanna punch first ask questions later. Gives off tired mom energy and I'm here for it

Ryuhei Domon

Haven't been able to get a good read on him yet (waiting for episode 3) but I can already tell he's probably gonna be the loudmouth/loverboy type. And he plays basketball! Probably gonna be a sassier version of Hinata

Ichika Sakurai

Why the hell are you so adorable? Literally the sunshine of the group. Her walking around with her apron and lil' headband and drawing art. Poor thing fainted (twice!) and fell in the pool and everyone just left her there. She must be protected at all costs! She's too pure for them! If anything happens (waiting for episode 4)

Naoya Morimura

He's a little shit, but y'know what? He's my little shit. Sure, he's an ass and has a mullet, but he loves his little sister and eventually did the right thing. Might end up rivalling Taisei for loudest hero. I want fun sibling rivalry with Hana! All the potential! (Plus he was dancing to: I Need a Hero, so he gets respect)

Hyuma Oura

He's an angsty mess but, yet again, he's my angsty mess. He kinda gives me final-boss-before-the-real-final-boss vibes (either that or that woman with the mask). There's so much potential for Oura they better not screw this up. I can't decide if I want a redemption arc for him or not...I just wanna know why he's so loyal to the Majin. Hopefully we get that story soon

Hana Morimura

This! Absolute! Queen! She's the mom friend and makes bento. She literally had no reason to run around helping Taisei but she did anyway because she's perfect like that. If anything bad happens to her I'm suing

#taisei manaka #yusuke takigawa #ryuhei domon #naoya morimura #ichika sakurai #hyuma oura #hana morimura #the high school heroes #the high school heroes toku #tokusatsu #high school heroes #super sentai #akared #akablue #akayellow #akapink #akagreen #THSH #toei

surprised at the news of someone looking for their shy younger manager, the team collectively move their heads to look at the gym’s sliding doors and see a female student taking off her shoes just outside of it. one of her hands rests against the doorframe bent slightly at the elbows to stabilise her body as the other picks up her shoes by the back of it.

you step into the gym with only socks on, moving quickly to bow at the team members and approach the new manager.

in the middle of the duo’s spiking practice, hinata and kageyama both stop and turn at the sound of your voice. the familiar sound of their usual bickers and running, jumping and whatnot go mute, and slowly, the normally loud and slightly deafening volume of karasuno high school’s second gymnasium goes quiet.

“are you guys okay?“ daichi asks as he approaches the first year duo. ”why’d you two stop?“ the captain didn’t get an answer from them; instead, they continued to stare at the guest by the front portion of the gym.

“is this...“ hinata murmurs, blinking every couple of seconds, his face is unmoving and stock-still. “...my chance?“

what? chance? daichi wonders. what chance is there for—

before his mind finishes the thought, hinata dashes towards the guest, and kageyama follows suit right after, sharing the same braincell thought with his partner. they both bow deeply and introduce themselves loudly before you.

“i’m hinata shouyou!“

“kageyama tobio!“

“please tutor us!“

ahh, must be an honor student. the team, who are all now just standing still, looks over to see what the commotion is about; they can’t hear the conversation from the other side of the gym, but they see you wave your hands in a rapid dismissive manner, most likely overwhelmed with the sudden appearance (and, quite frankly, the sheer aura) of these two.

“i’m tutoring a few students at the moment so i can’t right now, i’m sorry.“ hinata’s and kageyama’s shoulders droop dramatically, their disappointment clear to anybody with how the air around them seemingly became cold and depressing. “but... i’m free during breaks, so feel free to visit! oh, and i can give you copies of my reviewers for the upcoming exam!”

the two first years bowed deeper and thanked you profusely, sending you to another wave of overwhelmingness. the rest of the team, still in the same spots as they were before, only look at the scene with mixed reactions, staring in silence as they watch you try to make hinata and kageyama lift up their heads.

“i think i’ve heard of her,” tanaka suddenly speaks up. the team turns to look at him. ”someone was talking about this really kind and angel-like first year, gives away reviewers, tutors other people, helps out with others’ homeworks, stuff like that. no one mentioned that she’s really pretty, though.”

“ryu!“ nishinoya shouts suddenly. “we can only focus on kiyoko-san!“

“but they’re different!“ tanaka argues. “kiyoko-san is cool and beautiful! obviously, we’ll follow her forever!”

daichi steps up to forcibly make hinata and kageyama stand up straight, apologizing for their actions as their captain.

“it’s fine,“ you laugh slightly, bowing your head and thanking him for his hard work. “i’m hitoka-chan’s classmate! i’m here to return something to her, actually.“

“[name]-san!“ yamaguchi greets you as he jogs towards you, a smile on his face and his hand already up in the air in the form of a wave. he comes closer, and you jump up to reach his hand to high five it before he tries to heighten it further up where you can’t reach it anymore.

“i touched it!”

“i felt nothing, though~“

“yama-kun, that’s a lie!“

t.. they know each other? once again, the team is in a state of shock and silence as they see another usually shy teammate act differently. it’s rare to see yamaguchi being the initiator in teasing someone (as he’s always with tsukishima), much less being so... vocal and energetic and expressive.

“that makes it my third win this week!“

“sure thing, [name]-san~“

“say,“ asahi mumurs onto the rest of the team who never left their places. “is she... y’know... maybe... yamaguc—“

“oi,“ tanaka interrupts the small group of gossipers as he clamps a hand down sugawara’s shoulder, shaking it back and forth while keeping his eyes on the scene up front. “even tsukishima knows her, damn it!“

immediately, everyone looks back to see the most unlikely member of the team taking to someone else without glare on his face, not even a hint of irritation. in fact, whatever he says has you and yamaguchi giggling, while hinata and kageyama puff up with flames of petty anger.

well, daichi thinks to himself as he overhears tsukishima mock the other firstyear duo for begging you to tutor them in front of everyone else. guess we learn something new everyday.

⊱ ────── {.⋅ ☼ ⋅.} ────── ⊰

you return a week later to the male volleyball club’s gym with a paper bag on one hand and a large plastic bag on the other.

“she told me to give this to you,“ the team overhears your conversation as you approach the tall blonde. “it’s strawberry shortcake, of course.“

damn, tsukishima has girls giving him gifts already? they collectively curse at him inside. lucky bastard...!

“ah— i’d like to give these for everyone!“ with an obvious perk of their ears, everyone gathers around you as you open the large, white plastic bag: it’s filled with various snacks and drinks, most likely bought from a nearby convenience store outside the school, which meant you walked out of the school premises, bought everything in this bag, then walked back to the campus just to give these for everyone.

an angel... she’s literally an angel!

“THANK YOU VERY MUCH!“ hinata, kageyama, nishinoya and tanaka shout in happiness, grabbing their favorite snacks and drinks (yoghurt for kageyama and melonpan for tanaka, of couse) with twinkles in their eyes and a dust of pink on their cheeks.

“you didn’t have to buy these for us,“ daichi steps up and accepts the bag with a small bow.

“it’s fine, captain! thank you for working hard!“

daichi announces a break for everyone, telling them to grab a snack or a drink of their choice before passing the bag to the next person. in a matter of seconds, everyone’s seated on the floor, enjoying the snacks or drinks you bought for them.

tsukishima, the only other person still standing besides yachi and kiyoko, converses with you just a few feet away from the group, but they’re all busy eating or drinking. the two female managers, though, listen in with a knowing look and the smallest smirk on their lips.

⊱ ────── {.⋅ ☼ ⋅.} ────── ⊰

you return, one again, a week later. but instead of dropping by while they were in the middle of training, you opened the doors and greeted everyone with the dark sky of the night behind you.

“ah [lastname]-san! what are you doing so late?“ sugawara steps in as the vice captain, daichi being away to talk with their coach and club advisor about the upcoming training camp in tokyo.

“i’m waiting for—“

“we’re holding a study session later at my house,“ tsukishima speaks up right behind the grey haired third year, walking up to you after to say something before returning back to the court.

e..eh? did i hear that correctly? it’s almost past 7pm though...

“[lastname]-san!“ hinata and kageyama approach you with a slight jog, passing their frozen vice captain by the side. “thanks for the notes you gave us yesterday, it really helped make me understand the topic better!“

“thank you for tutoring us yesterday, even though it was a break time and you were probably busy and had other people needing your help and—“

“i told you, i’m happy to help, kageyama-kun!“

ah, right. she’s just an angel doing her angel duties, sugawara sighs, his mind now clear and grounded. there’s no way someone like tsukishima would be in a relationship with an angel like her...

⊱ ────── {.⋅ ☼ ⋅.} ────── ⊰

...right?

the team, currently on their break, discusses about the possible reasons why you’ve been visiting them weekly for the past two months. you’ve never spoken up about it specifically, and there’s nothing really obvious that the team can focus on to hypothesize about the question at hand.

ennoshita, having observed the times you’ve visited them and how you interact with the team, explained his insights on the situation.

first, none of the second or third years have spoken up about having a significant other, nor has any of them heard or knew you before you first visited them, so clearly, they’re out of the picture,

second, your first visit was because you had to return something to yachi, but only yamaguchi and tsukishima had talked to you freely as a friend would.

third, you once gave something to tsukishima, most probably a gift from one of her friends who liked him, and gave her gift through you. which means...

“i had a feeling yamaguchi was really close to her,“ asahi’s eyes light up in understanding. “it’s rare to see him be so talkative and cheerful.“

“no, but the air around them doesn’t seem like it,“ tanaka contributes to the discussion. “[name]-chan has this really light and air aura around her, you can really feel how angelic she is! it seems like there’s just a playful, friendly aura when she’s with yamaguchi.“

“that’s... a really detailed, creepy description, baldy,“ kinoshita strikes an arrow into tanaka’s body.

“first name basis? without asking her? invasion of privacy,“ asahi shivers.

“no wonder kiyoko-san keeps ignoring you.” narita finishes the blow.

“i did not— [name]-chan gave me permission!“ (”yeah, after scaring her into accepting it.” “stop being so brave for nothing, oi!”)

“it still seems off if tsukishima’s the reason,“ nishinoya pouts. ”our angel [name]-chan wouldn’t settle for a guy like tsukishima!”

“i agree!“

“yeah, she’s too kind for that!”

with collective nods and hums of agreement, the team returns to their training, the summer training camps they had in tokyo and saitama still fresh in their minds despite a few weeks having passed by since. summer had just ended, and the second term for the current academic year has barely started, so they haven’t seen you since the last time you visit them before the month long break.

night approaches, and the day ends for the karasuno male volleyball club without your prescence. eager to go home, they quickly changed and walked to sakanoshita market for their usual pork buns.

“a.. [name]-chan?!”

with a turn of your head, you greet the team with a smile and a small bow. “i figured you’d come here after training, so i went and bought you guys some pork buns before the get sold out.”

with a dramatic cry, hinata, tanaka and nishinoya fall to their knees and clasped their hands together as they thanked you profusely. after telling them that you had the worker keep the buns steamer to keep them warm, they immediately went to the counter; ukai, with impeccable timing, just entered from the back and immediately scolded them for being loud.

amidst the chaos, however, one person steps in and swiftly starts pulling you towards the exit.

“let’s go,“ tsukishima mumbles, his large hands easily caging your wrist in his grasp. “before the idiots notice—“

“tsukishima, what are you doing?!“

“how dare you steal our [name]-chan away from us!“

“give me a break,“ you hear him complain under his breath with a sigh. you giggle in response but try to hide your hands from the group, remembering that tsukishima had wanted to keep your relationship lowkey as much as possible. especially from the volleyball idiots, you remember him emphasizing.

“sorry, but we have a project to discuss! yama-kun, let’s go!“ with a last wave goodbye, the three of you escape the team and disappear from their sights.

as the team walks home while enjoying their warm pork buns, tanaka stops to a halt as he realizes something. “isn’t [name]-chan classmates with yachi and not those two...?”

⊱ ────── {.⋅ ☼ ⋅.} ────── ⊰

“were you able to study?“

“yeah, thanks for the jacket! library’s freezing, as always.“

the team eyes the two of you from the other side of the gym, suspicious and doubtful of their thoughts due to tanaka’s insightful realization last time. it doesn’t really seem like they’re in a relationship, right? they ask each other through knowing glints of eye contact. there’s no way they’re—

“oh, i heard from this guy that you’ll have the spring high tournament soon!“

“tsukishima got demoted to ‘this guy’, pfft.“

“pfft, ‘this guy’,“ hinata bursts out loud. “tsukishima doesn’t even get called by his name—“

yeah, there’s no way.

for the first time since you started visiting them three months ago, however, you stayed inside to watch the team train for the said competition with permission from daichi and the two adults beside door.

it’s a change of pace from you and a change of scenery from the team: they’re not used to anyone who’s not a part of their club to watch them, nor did they ever expect that it’d be you, of all people.

“[name]-chan,“ tanaka jogs up to you when their practice officially ended and the time to clean and tidy up the gym has started. “are you waiting for tsukishima and yamaguchi again? to talk about your, uhm, project?“

“no, i’m just waiting for kei.“

“k-kei?“

“yes?“ tanaka turns around to see tsukishima standing behind him, his hands on his hips and bored look on his face, but if you look closely, you’ll notice a hint of mischief in his golden eyes and the slightest smirk on his lips. “do you need something, tanaka-san?“

“you’re kei? i thought your name was hotaru!“

“nope, it’s read as kei.“

“i thought you were over having people guess your name for you!“

“i’m too tired to put up with people asking how to read it.“

tanaka, in the middle of your bickering, can feel his brain explode and his heart shatter slightly. i can’t believe it. fuck you, tuskishima. nishinoya, noticing his best friend’s frozen form in between you and tsukishima, jogs up to tanaka with slight concern.

“it’s true.” it’s the only think he can say before numbly looking at the two of you still bickering.

“maybe i’ll call you hotaru instead of kei then—“ (”k-kei? who?”)

“fine, i’ll stop.“ (”him?!”)

“good. you’re no longer a middle schooler, loser.“

“with your height, you’re the middle schooler here.“

fuck you, tsukishima.

“rude!“

More Calling for Rain questions because that’s what my muse has decided to screech about - do any of the Galahdians consider teaching Hinata one of the Dances? Like, maybe they see how she struggles with the Hyuuga taijutsu and conclude that she’s like one of the Galahdians who needed to learn a different Clan Dance because they took more after an ancestor that married in? (And maybe adopt her in the process because the Hyuuga clearly don’t appreciate her) 1/?

a-world-in-grey asked:

2/? Also, imagine the sheer glee Crowe feels when she discovers how much chakra Naruto has. When Naruto eventually learns the Shadow Clone technique. Crowe is going to cram so much chakra control practice into Naruto because this boy would be SUCH a terrifying ninjutsu specialist. (And she might want an assistant to help her test her ninjutsu creations who doesn’t need to worry about pithy things such as chakra exhaustion.) Meanwhile, Kakashi is getting a feeling of DOOM. And if anyone can

a-world-in-grey asked:

3/3 help recreate the techniques his parents were famous for (like Kushina’s chakra chains) it would be Crowe. Jun’s gonna take Chouji under his wing (because sure, Chouji’s fat, but he needs to be fat and being fat doesn’t mean he doesn’t ALSO have solid muscle under that fat). Also, if things follow canon and Neji tries to kill Hinata during the Prelims, someone is going to have to hold Nyx back from killing *him.* Because wooo boy is gonna be a wee bit Feral.

Me: They will absolutely consider teaching her various Galahdian dances, and she will be adopted into a Clan later on, I'm just not sure which one yet? Probably Nyx's since he's closest to her, though admittedly she'd fit in well as a Khara or an Altius tbh.

Crowe is going to be the most gleeful gremlin ever. Nyx is actually a tiny bit of a dread, but he's been trying to help Naruto with chakra control since forever and if Crowe can help him with that- eh. The village's sanity is a necessary sacrifice. (Lib: I WOULD DISAGREE WITH THAT.)

Kakashi feels All The Doom™ and he's walking into this situation AFTER Crowe has met Naruto, since Nyx reunites with the others pre-genin days.

I love the idea of Crowe helping recreate various lost jutsu. She hears about famous lost techniques and is like- "but what if I recreated that" and then doesn't let anyone stop her.

Jun appreciates that Chouji is Actually The Braincell. Shika is the brains, obviously, but when it comes to common sense and impulse control, it's absolutely Chouji. He will teach this lovable boy how to use his size and shape to his advantage even without the fancy rolling jutsu.

Neji is going to be on so many Galahdian blacklists. So many. Especially Nyx's. No, he doesn't CARE that you have trauma from your dead father, that's the ADULTS' FAULT NOT HINATA'S. It will take a while for Neji to get off the black list. The only reason Nyx isn't contemplating Murder is that 1, Hinata would be sad if he did and 2. Lib's dad is this jerk's sensei.

Komorebi (1)

komorebi, p.1

synopsis: Tsukishima dislikes the amount of parallels there are with you and Hinata. He dislikes the way you're so energetic and exuberant when you want to be, and the way you can get along so well with people. He dislikes the way that people are naturally drawn to you, and the way you're so willing to put time into your dumb gifts and snacks and treats for a team of boys you barely know.

But Tsukishima does not dislike you. And he supposes that's part of the problem.

series content: developing relationship, (sort of) ooc tsukishima, strangers to (sort of) friends to lovers, angst, fluff, slow burn

(okay y’all, WOW— i have a lot to say before we get into this. all good things, no worries!

first off, welcome to this mess of a multi-part series i’ve decided to start!! planning it has certainly been a labor of love, and i’m sure writing the rest of it will be just as much of a piece of work as it’s already been, but i truly am so excited to start writing this. things are a bit messy right now with the plot i have planned and whatnot, but i assure you that i (kind of) know what i’m doing!!

i’m VERY sorry for not getting this out earlier. it took me a while, a lot of rewriting and knitting breaks and lukewarm tea to manage something that i was sort of content with. introductions are hard, y’know? but i assure you the quality & content (as well as the length) will definitely pick up in the next few chapters.

if you haven’t caught my previous post(s) about it, i recently reached 100 followers and i could not be more happy!!! this milestone means so much to me and i’m so thankful for all the support you’ve given me over the last few months. i love you all so so so much, thank you for sticking around!!

with all of that being said (sorry for this VERY long a/n), here’s the first chapter!!)

☾.:°∗★.:☆:.★∗°:.☽

Tsukishima Kei walks into the gym, and wonders what he did to deserve this.

There’s a figure standing next to Hinata Shouyou, resident wild child of the Karasuno boys’ volleyball team, who seems to be as exuberant as the redhead. Tsukishima heaves out a sigh, which his childhood friend notices from beside him.

“You alright?” Yamaguchi asks, eyebrow cocked in concern.

The blonde blinks and looks straight ahead. “Just fine.”

Maybe the morning was a particularly rough one, or maybe his general disliking for people just really kicked in at that particular moment. But the sight of yet another person deciding to barge into morning practice loudly with Hinata, of all people, makes his cool demeanor slip into one of annoyance.

“Who’s that?” Yamaguchi voices the question that the blonde had been absent-mindedly asking himself, and the both of them watch from a distance as Hinata and his unidentified friend chat exuberantly near the bench.

“Don’t know,” Tsukishima responds, and he pointedly veers away from the duo and into the locker room without another word.

By the time he’s changed and ready to start practice, the unknown person is gone. A feeling of thankfulness overwhelms him but it’s (unfortunately) coupled with distant curiosity.

Tsukishima Kei sighs, takes a sip from his water bottle, and forces the flow of quiet questions in his mind to quiet down as he steps onto the court.

——

He should’ve known that it’s not easy to get rid of anyone similar to Hinata. They’re too loud to avoid, too exuberant to turn away from, too bright to shield your eyes from.

You are no exception.

He learns your name the next day, when you’re once again in the gym—this time, in after-school practice rather than in the morning. You clutch onto a paper bag, large and heavy on your shoulder and forcing you to lean your body to the other side to avoid toppling under the weight of the bag.

You’re standing with Hinata yet again, but this time there are other people with you. Nishinoya and Tanaka, girl-crazy idiots that they are, listen intently to every word you spew out as answers to their many questions. Yachi stands near you as well, a pleasant smile on her face as she watches you interact with the boys swimmingly, and Ennoshita seems to have taken a subtle interest in the conversation occurring.

Tsukishima scoffs, about to make some biting remark about your annoying presence to Yamaguchi before he realizes that Yamaguchi is strangely absent from beside him.

He turns to his side. Blinks. Looks back up at the steadily forming crowd around you. Spots his five-foot-ten friend smiling and laughing at whatever garbage is coming out of your mouth. Growls in annoyance before submitting to peer pressure and slowly (with definite uninterest) stalking in your direction.

He catches the topic of conversation now, right as you begin to fiddle with the plentiful contents of your bag. “I brought some stuff,” you speak, and Tsukishima ignores how pleasant your voice sounds to him. “Just a few things I baked, and I wanted to give some to you guys because Shouyou tells me a lot about how hard you all work.” You’re smiling—not that you haven’t been smiling the whole time, but as the words leave your mouth, your lips seem to lift higher up on your face to match the exuberant tone of voice you’ve adopted.

Tsukishima watches you pull out, one of many, beige bakery boxes, tan and smooth and weighty, by the look of how you have to use both hands to support it. Nishinoya and Tanaka “ooooo” at the sight of the mundane box, and Tsukishima wonders if neither of them are occupying the single braincell they share.

You lift up the lid of the box. The variety of pastries inside is almost worrying, and Tsukishima faintly wonders how much free time and resources you must have to make so much food just for a ragtag group of volleyball boys.

The boys explode with calls of “thank you, [Y/N]!” and “you’re so cool!” and “can we keep her?” though the last one is, yet again, the sole product of a certain pair of second years.

Tsukishima realizes that he now knows your name, your first name, [Y/N]. He wonders if, by chance, you’re not just a friend of Hinata’s but related to him, but brushes off his irrelevant curiosity yet again as you begin to speak.

“There’s no nuts in any of these, so if you have allergies then no need to worry! But there is milk and eggs and stuff, so if you’re vegan then I’m sorry about that…”

For the next few minutes, you ramble on about your baking process and Tsukishima rolls his eyes. It’s a shocker that the third years haven’t kicked you out yet, and he wonders if he can do that himself.

“I have to go now—” finally, Tsukishima thinks, “—but I hope you guys enjoy everything! If there’s leftovers, you can keep them, and if you want more of something then just tell me! I have a lot of time on my hands so I’m always making stuff.” You leave the paper bag on the floor near the benches, replacing the original location of the box in your hands, and smiling at the team once more with a polite bow.

“I hope you guys enjoy. Have a great day!” Tsukishima wants to gag at your stupidly-sweet behavior, and the feeling only intensifies as Hinata offers to walk you out—the door is twenty feet away, what’s the point of walking her there?

The team chatters exuberantly about the new face they met that afternoon, and Tsukishima would do anything to go deaf right in that moment. He sighs, looks at the boxes you left for the team, and rolls his eyes. While the rest of his teammates seem to be excited about this new addition to their team (including Yamaguchi, who he wants to call a traitor but knows he really can’t since he’s always been a bit more socially-inclined than Tsukishima), he can’t help but hope that your presence doesn’t become a daily thing.

Hoping doesn't do much for him, though. Maybe he should’ve figured that out beforehand.

girls chase boys ☇ t.k.

☇ pairing: tsukishima kei x fem!reader

☇ genre: fluff, oc is an absolute babie who has no shame, tsukishima goes from ‘she’s annoying’ to ‘she’s aight’ to ‘i may be lowkey in love w her it’s nbd tho’, oc will literally not give up, tsukishima is still a first year (word count: 4.1k)

☇ synopsis: usually when experiencing such a soul-crushing rejection, one would give up on their feelings, right? right?

☇ a/n: i binge-read some haikyuu fanmanga and i was ~inspired~ plus like... this trope?? persistant bubbly x uninterested cold is?? literally everything?? (playlist link: here)

“i like you!!!”

you kind of felt like the main character of a shoujo, with the wind making your hair dance in the air

standing face to face with your longtime crush

(and by longtime, you mean about two months)

that’s when it all started

no— it was earlier

the orientation ceremony

all the first years standing in neat, organized rows, listening to the principal give a welcoming speech

at least, that’s what you were supposed to be doing

in reality, your eyes were trained on the 188cm tall blonde in the row in front of you

you couldn’t see the stage— also, you didn’t care

bc ~he~ was in front of you

tsukishima kei

you learned his name later when you discovered you were in the same class

and he sat in the adjacent row, one seat forward

the absolutely perfect position to stare at his side profile the entire class

and that is exactly what you did for two months

that and gathering info on him

tsukishima kei, 188.3cm (now 190.1), born on september 27th, best friends with yamaguchi tadashi, #11 on the karasuno volleyball team

and then there you were, confessing your undying love to him

...or something like that

“no thanks. not interested.”

usually, that would soul-crushing enough to make them leave him alone

not you <3

the giggle that escapes your lips makes his eyebrow twitch on confusion for a second

“that’s okay~” you respond.

(that’s okay ?)

(what the fuck kind of response is that being rejected ???)

(yours!!!!)

you’re exhaustingly persistent, as tsukishima comes to find out

or should i say—

“tsukki~!!”

the hair on his neck rises when you flounce into homeroom with that sing-song tone

you plop down into the seat in front of him (key note: not yours) and rest your elbows on his desk with a little grin

“don’t call me that,” (he doesn’t look up from his book)

“what~! why not?”

“only my friends call me 'tsukki’”

you snort, scooting a little closer

“that’s mean. how many times have we walked home together, and we still aren’t friends?”

“you followed me home, i didn’t consent.”

“‘followed you’?” you pout. “we live on the same road, naturally we’d walk home together,”

he doesn’t respond, just flips to the next page in his book

“do you have volleyball club today~?”

ignored.

lol

she stays strong!! she doesn’t give up in the face of adversity!!!

“you don’t have to answer, i already know you do.” you chirp. “it’s boring walking home without you... maybe i’ll come with you today~!”

it’s like talking to a wall

(a very cute, 190cm, blonde, glasses-wearing wall.)

(🥰)

instead of responding, he puts his headphones on and keeps reading

a small exhale escapes your lips, and one of the girls in the next row over leans towards you

“y/n... i think it’s a lost cause...”

“he’ll come around eventually,” you shoot her a smile, and then turn back to tsukki

you lean forward, reaching towards his head and tugging the headphones down around his neck

and when he looks up (he does within an instant), you shoot him a sly smile

several students around you gasp

after all, who would dare bother tsukishima with his headphones on??? that’s some instant death shit

“move.”

“i like being this close to you though,” you tease

and he rolls his eyes, standing up and heading for the exit of the classroom

the shock in the classroom — that you’re still ALIVE — is clear

your friend from before gapes

“y-y/n what are you playing at??”

“courtship,” you sigh dramatically, and hop to your feet to chase after the blonde monster

“tsukki~!! are you getting lunch?? wait for me~!!”

everyone on the first floor knows: it’s become the norm to see tsukishima, book in hand, headphones around neck, and followed by a chirpy pipsqueak

even yamaguchi doesn’t stick as closely to him as ‘tsukishima’s lapdog’ (as you’ve started being called by the fellow first years) does

the nickname doesn’t really bother you

after all, it’s just a reminder of your determination and refusal to give up

which is a virtue, in your mind!!

some people feel bad for tsukishima, constantly being bothered by you for weeks on end

others admire your stubbornness

and one group of people you can always count on supporting you are the karasuno volleyball club <3

ever since you started showing up to their practices

and all their practice matches and official games too

they all befriended you

but you grew tired of just sitting and watching tsukki on the sidelines, so you asked coach ukai if you could help out during practices!!!

there can’t rly be ... three managers... so you suggested retrieving balls or being tsukki’s personal assistant

he saw right through you <3

but it’s ok bc he thought it would be entertaining and agreed

tsukki: angy

even when he’s annoyed he’s cute tho <33 and you make sure to tell him that <333

and so! you get tsukki’s water, towels, etc etc (ofc u help other ppl too when they need it but tht’s what the two managers r for... tsukki is ur #1)

the other players are like 0.0 she’s kinda scary... but cute at the same time doe...

one day you’re in a particularly good mood (aka: a bad day for tsukki lol)

“tsukki~!”

“don’t call me that.”

“i want to tell you something,”

the whole gym is kinda just 👁️👄👁️ waiting to see what happens

“what? i need to change, hurry it up.”

ur inner monologue: kdNNN even when he’s mean he’s cute!!!!

but anyways:

“i like you,”

hinata, kageyama, tanaka, noya, literally everyone: 😳😨 mf what—

sugawara’s like “oh god he’s just reject her and crush her heart... right in front of EVERYONE—”

“not interested.” tsukki says, and his tone isn’t any less cold than usual

u kno that anime lightning effect when the character’s body is joLtED...

tht’s everyone else in the gym

tanaka and nishinoya are highkey ready to let you cry into their jerseys when—

you laugh

you right after being mercilessly rejected: 🥰

you can’t help it !!!!! it’s not discouraging you ok??? you alr knew what he’d say!!! but you had to tell him <3 can’t let him forget tht he’s the ✨love of your life✨

entire gym: s h o o k

“did she just l a u g h??”

“is she okay?? no srsly”

“what... just happened”

tsukki walks off, water bottle in hand

you follow after him, bouncing on the soles of your feet

“don’t forget your towel~! want me to wipe off your sweat~?”

“no thanks.”

cue fading banter between you two as he goes to change his clothes

he has to be like hOe GeT oUT for you to not go into the locker room lmfao damn... thirsty bitch... same tho

later tanaka and noya (feat. hinata who just wants to be included) jump tsukki

“shE LAUGHED WHEN U REJECTED HER??? IS SHE OK???”

“she confesses to me every week. she’ll do it again. it’s not that big of a deal.”

“not thAT BIG— can u imagine if kiyoko liked us that much.... ”

(cue tanaka sobbing)

tsukki was right tho

after the third time you randomly confessed to him in front of them they were just like

same shit different day, anyways rolling thunder

but they still highkey adopted you

so they go grr grr when tsukki rejects you all cold and shit

shockingly tho??? the more you confess the less it’s “not interested” and more just “*sigh*”

is this... PROGRESS???

but the zero braincell triad cornered him again in the locker room one day

(it’s their trademark)

(nishinoya) “so why do you keep rejecting her??”

(hinata popping in) “yea she’s super dedicated and helpful!!!”

(tanaka lowkey shuddering) “she’d probably let herself get hit in the face w a volleyball if u asked”

(and tanaka would be: correct)

(but anyway)

“she was annoying,”

“she... ‘was’ annoying???”

“... she IS annoying”

“tsukki... do you possibly like her??? but you’ve gotten so used to rejecting her that it’s automatic now??”

tsukki’s like V.V

“you’re reading too much into it,”

sage!nishinoya is about to probe deeper but at that moment you pop your head around the corner of the locker room and shout

“tSUKKI~!!!”

and they all scatter to hide themselves while shrieking

except tsukki, who is already clothed and gives zero fucks lmao

but anyways!!! a couple weeks pass and takeda got y’all set up with a practice match !!

with who?? nekoma!!!

hinata is like 🤩🤩 kENMA!!

only players and members of the club are supposed to go rly....

but you’re like “??? i’m tsukki’s personal assistant are you trying to take away my rights??? i’ll sue you” and coach ukai gives in sdjfkf

“tsukki can i sit with you~?”

yamaguchi about to sit there: 👁️👄👁️ bruh

tsukki doesn’t say yes but he also doesn’t say no :D

“what’re you reading?”

“english book,”

you’re like: wait— mf hold up... did he actually just answer ??

tsukki simp mode: ACTIVATED

“can i see??”

“you’re failing english, you won’t be able to read it.”

“ouch,” you pout, but there’s a small smile on your lips. “but how’d you know i was failing english?”

he doesn’t respond

“i guess it is unfair that i know everything about you and you don’t know anything about me...” you sigh

“you don’t know everything about me,” he retorts, still not looking up from his book

hehe~ gotcha

“oh? test me,” you grin, scooting closer to him

“don’t wanna.”

“you’re just scared i do know everything,” you say smugly, trying to bait him

“bet you don’t know everything about me!!!” hinata pops up from the seat in front of you

“you’re right, i don’t,”

(he pouts and disappears again)

“tsukki~” you whine. “tsukkiiiii~ i’m bored.”

“so?”

“can i wear your headphones?”

“no thanks. i don’t wanna get headlice.”

you scowl. “mean,”

you bite your cheek, staring a hole in the side of his head but he doesn’t even blink

if tsukki could major in ignoring you people, he’d have straight A’s

fortunately, you have ways to counter this

“kei~~” you whisper a little too close to his ear, and he jolts up

you try not to let the amusement show on your face, but you can’t help it

glaring at you, he pulls his headphones off his head and puts them on yours

“now be quiet,”

“mm~” you chuckle

a couple hours later, you pull into the parking lot of nekoma

the friend groups pair off, and kuroo makes a beeline for tsukki, only to catch sight of you

“hey four-eyes— who’s this?”

tsukki glances down at you, to which you shoot him a sugary smile

“dunno,” he says, and walks off

you wave to kuroo with a sunny grin

“i’m y/n~! i’m tsukki’s personal assistant and future wife~”

his eyebrows rise, and with a quick bow, you bounce after the blonde

once the group is all in the gym, practice jerseys are handed out and you help yachi and shimizu prepare the water and towels

you’re about to make a beeline for tsukki, when someone calling your name stops you

“y/n! wanna get me some water?” kuroo calls

you only blink for a moment before hopping to it, darting across the gym

for the rest of the day, kuroo is constantly calling for you—

“y/n! can you wipe the sweat off my neck?”

“hey, y/n, get me some water~”

“y/n!”

“y/n, over here!”

and by the time the several hours is over, you haven’t gotten to speak to tsukki once 🥺 snnff :(

when you finally get a free moment, you look around for him, but he’s nowhere to be found

sad face :(

and then !!!! turns out nekoma paid for bbq for everyone 🤩🤩 cats are so generous

and somehow??? you find yourself surrounded by nekoma players???

“here y/n, want some of my bbq?”

“no, take mine!!!”

“do you want any fruit?? i have some!!”

“you were so helpful today!! how’d you stay so energetic the whole time??”

you flash a smile, ready to charm the shit out of them, when a voice interrupts:

"hey, personal assistant.”

your eyes light up, bc you’d recognize that salty ass voice anywhere!!!

the guys around you part to reveal—

“tsukki!!!” you squeal, maybe a little too excitedly

“aren’t you supposed to be assisting me?? get me some food.”

you shove your plate into the free hand of one of the nekoma players (his name was... liam? lief... lev?) and dart to get tsukki something to eat

when you hand it to him, you flash him your most dazzling smile

“eat up! you worked hard today~”

he eyes you silently before digging in, and you smile absentmindedly while watching him

“why are you staring at me like that?”

“because i like you,” you respond without hesitation

he averts his eyes, but doesn’t say anything mean

your stomach flips a little

i’m coming for you, tsukishima kei.

on the ride home, you’re once again sitting next to him, and he gives up his headphones without a fight this time

you’re so tired from running around helping kuroo all day that you find your eyelids getting heavy as tsukki’s music plays in your ears

you try to subtly lean on his shoulder but he pokes you away

you glare at him, pouting, but settle for leaning against the headrest

and then, you’re drifting off

and you’re having a strange dream

a pleasant dream, with fuzzy corners and honey-colored light streaming across the scene, but still strange

in this dream, he’s kissing you

it’s not like you haven’t had dreams like this before, it’s just that this one feels so much more vivid

and yet blurry at the same time

even when the dream ends and you blink back into consciousness you can still distinctly feel his lips against yours

his glasses brushing against your cheek

his fingers interlacing with your hair

a warm smile curls up your lips as you grasp lingering wisps of the dream, when—

“you’re drooling.”

your eyes snap open and you jolt up, furiously wiping the side of your mouth

“am not!!”

tsukishima blinks uninterestedly from the empty bus aisle, arms crossed

“dreaming about something vulgar?”

you grin, resting your chin on your palm

“would you like to hear ab—?”

he’s just “nope,” and turns towards the exit

hopping out of the seat, you follow him

“it was such a nice dream,” you sigh

“must’ve been, if you were drooling that much.”

“i was not—”

and then you notice something

everyone else is already gone from the bus

“wait a minute... did you wait for me?”

you hear a scoff

bUt hE dOEsNt DeNy iT

“you WAITED for me!!!!” you exclaim, happiness radiating off you in waves

“if i’d left you on the bus, nishinoya and tanaka would’ve killed me if i didn’t,” he says curtly

but you are, after all, the human equivalent of ‘this sign can’t stop me because i can’t read’

or that tiktok trend

tsukishima: i don’t like you, i only waited for you because i was literally forced at gunpoint

y/n: 🎶i waited for you🎶

the next day, it’s practice as usual at the karasuno gym

but?? sniff sniff someone is here that shouldn’t be

this rando first year has been pacing around right outside the gym entrance

and all the vbc members are like 👁️ whomst?

and when you finally arrive (right along behind tsukki)

he yells out your name

and holds out a bouquet of flowers <3 how cute

“y/n, um— i, i know you don’t know me but i’ve liked you since the orientation ceremony!!! i think you’re really pretty and cute and smart—”

cue a quiet scoff from tsukki, “if she’s his definition of smart, then how dumb is he?”

cue sugawara jabbing his side (sugamama is protective of his child y/n)

“—and i know you like tsukishima, but i hope you’ll give me a chance!! i can make you happier than him!!”

at this point, everyone in the gym is watching like 👁️ oh?? TEA??

and is that... is that an aura of raging irritation coming from tsukishima??

you open your mouth to politely reject the guy, when

literally out of nowhere tsukki just a p p e a r s

“hey, idiot. aren’t you supposed to be my personal assistant?? go set out the volleyballs instead of flirting,”

you dip your head and smile apologetically at the guy before heading towards the store room

and after that, you notice tsukki is a bit harsher, a bit more off his game, a little more easily irritated than usual

during a free moment, you nudge tanaka

“doesn’t he seem like he’s in a bad mood??”

zero braincell tanaka is like “??? isn’t he always like that??”

“no... something is definitely off today...”

what . could it be . i wonder .

every time you try to do your usual “tsukki~!!” he just turns away and ignores you

doesn’t sound too out of the ordinary, but you can just tell something is wrong

you still have no idea why he’s acting like this by the time practice ends

and when you go to the locker room to find him (so y’all can walk home together), he’s already gone :(

so, a little more droopy than usual, you head out

only to be surprised by a voice when you step outside

“took you long enough,”

you whip around to see tsukki leaning against the wall with crossed arms

he clicks his tongue and then sets off

and when you don’t immediately follow him, he glances over his shoulder

“are you coming or not?”

sdjfksjsdkjfsdjf smmpdfhsdf !!!!!!!

it’s just one sentence, and it doesn’t really mean anything

but hearing the words makes something incredibly warm bloom in your chest

you grin

“of course i am,”

that feeling lasts well into the next morning, but is replaced by a nauseating knot in your stomach when you arrive at school

because everyone’s whispering about one thing:

“tsukishima got called to the principal’s office!!!”

“whaaat ! why??”

“i heard he was caught with the answers for the upcoming exam!!”

your stomach . clenches

and before anybody can say another word, you’re sweeping out the door and down the hall

and in less than 30 seconds, you’re slamming open the door to the principal’s office

the principal and tsukki both look up, equally shocked at your sudden appearance

“y/n, what—”

you ignore him for the first time in your life

“sir, i need to tell you something.”

the principal is just like “... ?? can it wait??”

“no, it can’t.” you take several steps forward “the test answers, they—”

“y/n, don’t—”

you ignore him for the second time in your life again

“they’re mine,”

the principal blinks

“then why was tsukishima found holding them before class??”

“yesterday, they must’ve fallen out of my backpack. he probably picked them up without knowing what they were, so please don’t punish him,” you bow. “punish me instead,”

.. y/n dumb bitch

yea, you’re suspended for two weeks

and ofc there’ll be a mark on your record

plus you’re automatically given a fail for the upcoming exam so you’ll have to retake it later oof....

but as much as all that sucks, you don’t regret it bc you’d rather take the fall than let tsukki be wrongly accused and suffer for it

but honestly the break from school is kinda vibes 🥴

don’t even think about the homework you’ll have to make up

your phone is blowing up with texts from your friends

including your surrogate dads and moms from the karasuno vbc 🤧 they’re so worried about you

you’re sad you have to miss practice for such a long time but... you don’t regret your decision

“y/n!!” your little sister knocks on your door “one of your classmates is here for you,”

“‘kay!!” you call back, checking the time

shidt bitch time flies when you’re watching anime alone in your bedroom

you hop up and open your bedroom door to come face to face with the one. the only. tsukishima kei

your eyes are like O.O

“tsukki??? what are you doing here??” you grin “are you here because you’re worr—”

“no,” he cuts you off “i’m here to deliver your homework,”

“you could’ve given it to my sister, y’know,” you tease. “why’d you come all the way to my bedroom?? you missed me, hm?”

he doesn’t answer, instead surveying the room before sitting down on the edge of your bed

you blink, surprised he didn’t comeback with a cold retort

“tsukki?” you ask quietly, sliding into your desk chair

after a moment of silence, he fixes you with a stoic gaze

“why’d you lie?”

“because... because i couldn’t let you take the blame for that. i don’t know what happened, but i know you weren’t cheating. i know it.”

“neither were you. what’s the difference?”

you press your lips together in a frustrated pout

“the difference is that it’s you!!! i’m mediocre. i’m not outstanding. i’ll go to an average college either way, and it’ll be fine. but you..! you’re so smart!! and talented!!! you could do anything you want!!! you could get into an elite college!! the last thing you need is for some stupid misunderstanding to sully your transcript—”

“y/n—” he tries to cut in, but you bulldoze right over him

“— and i know you probably think what i did was useless and unhelpful, but i don’t care!!! i don’t care about a mark on my transcript, or being suspended, or failing all my exams, or even being expelled—”

“y/n—”

“— but i absolutely refuse to let that happen to you!! you’re too special for—”

this time, it’s not him speaking that interrupts you

this time, it’s him kissing you

you nearly combust on the spot

tsukki— tsukishima kei is kissing you

he’s leaning over you, with one hand on the chair’s armrest and the other steadying your head with his fingertips

your stomach does several full somersaults

and then, all too quickly, he pulls away and returns to his spot on your bed

you stare, eyes wide as saucers, mouth slightly agape

“w— what was— why did—”

“you wouldn’t stop talking,” he mutters, eyes focused a little too hard on the wall

for a moment, you’re too shocked to move

and then your 🥰tsukki🥰 mode activates

and you just fuckin LUNGE at him

“y/n??? what—!”

kisses!!! kisses on his cheeks!! his nose!!! his forehead!!!

and shockingly he doesn’t?? push you off??

me heart just skipped a beat wjdkfjs

he’s just like “y/n, you’re fogging up my glasses, please stop,”

“i refuse!!!! i’ve been waiting months to do this!!!!!”

once he manages to de-suction you from him, you fix him with doe eyes and a cheeky grin

“hey, tsukki??”

“.. what?”

“i like you,”

he blinks

adjusts his glasses

“make sure to finish that homework. i’m bringing tomorrow’s homework too,”

as he’s leaving, you hope he can feel your glowing smile on his back

the next day, you get a message from the school letting you know that your suspension and other punishments have been retracted

as the real culprit of the cheating was found

an unannounced locker-search discovered several exam cheatsheets almost exactly like the one tsukki found in the locker of a student, and the school realized their mistake <3 how nice of them

and that meant you were free to return to school, name cleared!!!

the volleyball club was eagerly awaiting your return

so when they saw tsukki arrive for practice, they expected you’d be following right along behind him

but instead???

you were koala-ing on his abdomen

“bro... did you carry her all the way here like that??”

“the real question is why he allowed it,”

you shoot a blinding grin at the guys

“he can at least do this much for his girlfriend~!”

the entire gym is like WhA T !!!!!

“hE SAID YES???”

“nope,”

“he... asked you out?? then??”

“also no...”

“did he at least tell you he liked you...?”

“...”

“NISHINOYA STOP SHE’S TEARING UP,” sugamama to the rescue

you let go of tsukki and half the team goes IN on him

“dude wtf!!! she got suspended for you and you didn’t even at least tell her you like her???”

“not just suspended, almost expelled!!!”

“yeah that!!!”

“i say we kill tsukki,”

“tanaka no,”

“GUYS!!” angry!daichi makes an appearance “it’s time for practice!!!”

grumbling, the team disperses

you’re about to head to the store room to help get out the practice equipment, when—

“y/n.”

you turn “hm?”

he’s silent for a moment

“i wouldn’t have kissed you if i didn’t like you.”

your face flushes a deep red

but then he adds, “either time.”

either...? time...?

W A I T

your eyes POP OUT

“that— that wasn’t a DREAM???”

he doesn’t answer, just heads onto the court

but you think you see a slight smirk

and maybe... just maybe??

his ears are a little more red than usual.

Kiran, Categorizing

Thank you for the support and patience as always, @xpegasusuniverse! This was so funny to write, I hope you like it!

Summary: Bored during a meeting, Kiran started to sort some of the heroes in a way that he had only done back in his own world, in social media... Now, Sharena, Alfonse and Anna seemed interested in the magical world of the... himbos.

Commission info HERE and HERE!

__________________________

Kiran’s workload after he was summoned to Askr kept increasing exponentially as the war against various kingdoms dragged on. There were many Heroes to keep track of and many different powers coming to play, so he always had to be careful when suggesting a team or a strategy.

Of course, he couldn’t deny that sometimes he made team compositions mostly based on personal preference or how the heroes would interact with one another rather than how well they complemented each other’s strengths, but he never sent those out to dangerous missions, so he liked to keep that to himself.

Take the meeting going on at that moment, for example; he was shuffling through a list of buff-looking heroes to form a team to explore whatever had been going on inside the Illusory Dungeon. No one knew for certain when phantoms of heroes and compelling songs would start appearing and playing there, but whenever lights shone inside it, Kiran formed one of those teams based on his own preferences just to hear the reports once they came back.

Well, the meeting wasn’t solely for this situation as Anna, Alfonse and Sharena were sitting on the round table around Kiran while talking strategies about the many other skirmishes happening in the country. There were some heroes who still had to go to the Training Tower, so the smallest pile of papers by Kiran’s left was a list of those; there were also heroes raring to go explore the Aether Islands, so the second smallest pile was full of requests from them; there had also been reports about suspicious movements in the woods nearby, so some nimble heroes were needed…

There was a lot to do, so Kiran was taking his time to at least form a team he found funny instead of drowning in the weight of his responsibilities like it usually happened to Alfonse. Kiran looked up from the paper in front of him to the sick-looking prince, raising an eyebrow at how intently he stared at a report.

“Alfonse, maybe you should take a break. You’re looking whiter than your own clothes.” Kiran’s hoarse voice from talking all morning made the prince blink and shake his head.

“I couldn’t possibly take a break at an important time such as this-”

“C’mon, Alfonse, Kiran’s right.” Sharena patted her brother’s shoulder, her face still full of energy as though she wasn’t tired at all from sitting at that table for hours. “Let’s go stretch our legs! I’ll come with you.”

Once again Alfonse shook his head. “No. As I said, I can’t cut the meeting short just for this.” He shifted his tired gaze from his pouty sister to the Summoner, “were you almost finished with the team for the Illusory Dungeon, Kiran?”

“Hm? Ah, yeah. I wanted a team of himbos, so I figured Raphael, Arden, Draug and maybe Shiro…? I was torn between him and Chrom, but perhaps Chrom isn’t really one…” Kiran mumbled the later half of the sentence, frowning slightly at the personal files of Chrom and Shiro as though he could find the answer there if only he stared long enough.

Anna raised her finger to ask, but then gave up on it, shaking her head. Sharena didn’t, though.

“Eh? What’s a ‘himbo’, Kiran? Is it something you use to sort the heroes? Or does it have to do with how strong they are?” The princess’ eyes shone, while her brother beside her looked confused yet intrigued.

Snorting, Kiran had to avert his eyes for a moment, wondering how he could have said that out loud. An internet lingo he had used back when he still had social media (though still pretty accurate to categorize people) now came up in this kind of situation. Kiran cleared his throat, fighting back a smirk.

“Well, yeah, it can be considered something to sort them based on how strong they look. A man is only a himbo if he has three characteristics: He has to be buff, kind, -- to everyone, though especially to women -- and stupid. If he’s missing even one of these, he can’t be considered a himbo.”

“Wha-” Anna frowned, placing one hand over her mouth to hide a snort.

Alfonse and Sharena, however, were appalled.

“S-stupid? That’s kind of mean to say about the heroes, though?” Sharena deflated like a sad balloon, sitting back after getting up in excitement about a new word.

“Truly, I- I never expected you to talk about them like this, Kiran.” Alfonse looked more offended than anything, as though all of the built-up trust they had shared had shattered.

Kiran pressed his lips into a thin line, almost unable to stop himself from laughing out loud. “No, I mean it in the best way possible. Look here,” he picked up Raphael’s file, which had a picture of him smiling wide and warmly, “this is the peak example of a himbo. He’s not book-smart nor does he have street-smarts, but his heart? It's as wide as the ocean. He’s kind, but without any ulterior motive, and he’s really, really big and buff.”

Sharena’s jaw dropped in shock, processing the information as Alfonse twitched his eyebrows. “But why refer to him as ‘stupid’...? That’s rather insulting.”

Kiran shrugged. “Well, it’s just the fastest way to call someone who doesn’t have much -- if any -- smarts in them, isn’t it? Look at this one here.” He pulled a file from a nearby pile, lifting it for them to see. “Tibarn here, he’s buff and kind, but he has smarts. You can see many thoughts going inside his head,” different from the zero braincells Raphael seems to have, Kiran thought to himself as he swallowed a snort. “So he’s not a himbo, but a hunk.”

“Alright, I’ll bite, “Anna managed to say after properly managing not to laugh at the absurdity of the situation. “So a himbo has those three characteristics, a hunk is a muscular and kind man. So what of the other combination? If they’re kind and… lacking in smarts?” She asked, barely containing a smirk from sprouting, which mirrored Kiran’s.

“Well, that’s just a decent man, I suppose.” He coughed out, trying to mask a snort as Anna threw her head back in laughter, unable to hold it back anymore.

“Pfft-aahaha! This is new!” She laughed loudly, taking shaky breaths to stop herself from crying as she dried her eyes with one hand. “So, since when have you been ranking the heroes like this?”

Catching her laughter, Kiran shook in amusement for a bit before glancing at the confused royals. “Since before I was summoned here, I suppose. It’s a ‘sorting technique’ used back in my world.”

Sharena’s eyes sparkled once again. “Well, if we can not say that they’re stupid, then I think it’s a good sorting! They have a big heart and big bodies, right? It doesn’t matter that they don’t understand the world around them, just that they’re ready to accept everything at face value!” The princess looked up as though she had made the discovery of the century, while Alfonse beside her crossed his arms to think.

If it was something from another world, Kiran’s world especifically, it was worth giving it a try, was it not? Perhaps if they applied themselves, they’d be able to sort the heroes more efficiently and cut back the time for these meetings so they could focus their energy elsewhere…

“As I was saying, I was in doubt about Chrom because, look: he’s buff enough, though not as big as, say, Draug; he scores high in kindness; but he has SOME smarts… Although he’s impulsive, it’s not like his brain is empty like- ahem, it’s not like his heart is as big as Raphael’s or Shiro’s.”

Not hearing the insulting part about the heroes’ smarts, Sharena nodded in compliance, thinking deeply. “Hmmm, I don’t think I can help in this right away. Can you give us more examples?”

“Sure, look here,” Kiran turned the pile by his left to Sharena. “Hinata, he’s a jock. He’s buff enough, but he’s not really kind and he’s kinda brusque, right?” Kiran held back the ‘he lacks brain cells’ part, saying it only with his eyes to Anna, the only one who truly understood him in all of this. “On the other hand, Stahl… is just a decent guy. He’s kind and although he has some smarts, he’s not buff, so he doesn’t fall into this category.”

“Hmmm, so do you think Owain could be one? He’s stup- ah, lacks smarts enough and he’s a good guy. But he- ah, yeah… perhaps not.” Anna started, but then stopped herself after comparing Raphael’s muscles to Owain’s. “Isn’t this kind of sorting way too specific? I don’t think many heroes fall under the ‘himbo’ category.”

Kiran nodded solemnly, as though they were talking about some important strategy. “Indeed. It’s very hard to find a true himbo, as they’re extremely rare. Hence why I was having trouble with the Illusory Dungeon team.”

“I see… It sounds really important.” Sharena nodded, basically accepting that this was something that went way over her head and tried to catch up in her own way. Alfonse still had mixed feelings about it, but the more seriously Kiran and Anna talked about it, the more he felt like he was in the wrong for finding something iffy about the sorting method in the first place.

“For example, Linus… if only he was a bit kinder, he would be another prime example of a himbo.” Kiran said over Sharena’s mumbling, sighing wistfully. “Lex would also be a good one, but he’s too smart to be a himbo.”

“Oh, I know! What about Keaton? He seems perfect!” Sharena raised her voice as her eyes glanced at one of the lists around Kiran.

The Summoner and Anna exchanged glances. “Not enough muscle.”

“Ah…” Sharena sat back with a pout. “This is really hard…”

“Yeah…” Kiran scratched his temple in thought.

In the following silence, only Alfonse’s voice could be heard after a few minutes. “... Isn’t Lord Hector one, though? From those examples…”

Kiran widened his eyes, jumping out of his seat with a bang. “That’s it! Alfonse, you’re a genius!” He praised, quickly shifting through the files to find Hector’s. “Do you have any more suggestions?”

Taken aback by the sudden cheer, Alfonse gulped. “Um, I thought about Helbindi, especially according to what Princess Yglr told us about him…”

“Hmm… A rare tsundere himbo, huh… perhaps?” Kiran took one hand to his chin in thought, mumbling something under his breath. “Alfonse, you’re on the right track! C’mon, keep the ideas coming!”

“Brother, you’re no fun, you picked it up so quickly! Tell me more!” Sharena protested, manhandling Alfonse into fessing up how he understood Kiran’s vague explanations so well.

Anna snorted under both hands as her shoulders shook from suppressed laughter, wondering how the hell they had ended up talking about that in the middle of a meeting.

Regardless, the topic was too much fun to be ditched now that the four of them were eagerly exchanging suggestions and adding more himbos to the pile, so no one noticed that the important meeting they were having was now a himbo-selection tournament.

Perhaps after night fell, they would come back to their senses, but for now, the Commander, the two royals and the Summoner threw heated debate against one another regarding the amount of intelligence this or that hero possessed.
