oikage......... if you carry the one and factor out a four... are a manifestation of the thin line between admiration and jealousy .... i've solved it....🚬
#how there are things they both admire and are jealous of in one another#and how jealousy manifests more in tooru than it does in tobio#and how that shapes how they act towards one another and talk about each other#how tooru sees himself above tobio in social settings but inferior when he's alone due to jealousy#and how tobio sees tooru as an equal* in social settings but above when he's alone. silent admiration#*although the term 'equal' isn't entirely correct. a challenge he can rise to is more accurate#reaching the level of reliability that tooru has is a goal of tobio's. and an achievable one#tooru- however- wants tobio's natural talent. which isn't achievable.#meaning tobio can have admiration for tooru seeing as the thing he's jealous of is an achievable goal#whereas tooru is left with jealousy because the part of tobio he wants is not achievable and therefore he cannot admire him#at least not in the same way tobio can admire tooru#CHAT DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE🗣️#god it has taken me so long to figure these two out and i cannot comprehend why#every relationship in haikyuu (everyTHING in haikyuu actually) has a general theme#matches (shiratorizawa v karasuno being a battle of concepts)#relationships (kuroo and kenma being the types of people who push each other and grow together in the discomfort of trying new things)#like. everything has a concept.#kageyama and hinata and their soulmateism and how someone will always match ur freak is just self explanatory#but oikawa and kageyama. despite being a relationship dynamic that intrigues me. their concept has been a mystery to me until now#god i feel like a university professor. spending this much time studying one piece of media for like 9 years#that's right i've got a ​phd in volleyball series with homoerotic undertones😎#call me dr. beez from now on#my dissertation was on kageyama and hinata's relationship and how it's fucking awesome REAL NOT FAKE#anywho. gonna go listen to lacy by olivia rodrigo and Cry ^_^#olivia rodrigo fans i'm so sorry this is in your tag now IGNORE ME IGNORE ME#volleyball guys
