#Hinata’s unconventional way of longing
Explore tagged Tumblr posts
Text
Shoyo’s feelings towards Tobio are so ridiculously apparent that it takes less than 10 seconds within a convo with the guy to conclude that yeah he’s so not casual about his rival
‘oKaY so in other words’ sugawara clocked that IMMEDIATELY I’m laughing
It’s interesting to me that when kindaichi asked hinata why he was being so desperate at training camp, his response was “well I’ve decided that Kageyama is my goal, I have to beat him OR ELSE I’LL BASICALLY DIE”
He was there bc he needed to get stronger and learn how to develop more useful skills so he can stand on his own. He doesn’t want to fall behind when all of his peers, not just at karasuno but everyone all around him is improving.
He could have said something similarly to that but instead in his response, he emphasized solely on his rivalry with kgym as his biggest form of motivation.
Another noteworthy comment is after their fight in s2 when Hinata was practicing alone once again, focusing on improving himself :
It’s basic rivals dynamic but the way shoyo strictly base his own progress and growth upon his ability to measure up to and surpass his greatest rival…
The way he’s so determined to keep up with kgym, and whenever he speaks about him, it feels like he’s doing it all (as in working so hard) partially to avoid being left behind by him in particular.
Another fitting example is how during their fight, Shoyo was filled with frustration abt wanting to grow. However, when he was with Yachi, that wasn’t the ground breaking issue. He couldn’t help but confess, be vulnerable about his relationship with Kageyama. He ended up crying on his bike on the way home, all bc he didn’t want to lose the rivalry and partnership they had built over these past weeks.
I can’t explain this better it’s just interesting to me that the underlying focus is always on being able to stand by kageyama’s side as an equal, it’s like having a tunnel vision, using Tobio as a focal point.
reminds me of when saeko said “if shoyo hadn’t ever seen you on tv that day, he never would’ve chosen to bike over a mountain to go to karasuno, and he never would’ve met tobio” SHE GETS IT
On his bike here once again just to meet Kageyama at the gym later that day. unknowingly, coincidentally chasing after/towards Kageyama. Everything about them is so meant to be
Each time the infamous 'if I'm not alone' quote is mentioned Tobio is always the first one to appear by Shoyo's side.
and there it is again, the bike imagery. Climbing a mountain while talking about feeling ‘alone.’ It’s dark, it’s a quiet, kind of a gloomy scenery, and then next clip suddenly you hear Kageyama’s voice ‘let’s go hinata’ and everything lights up. That’s his version of ‘I’m here.’
It’s very much established that hinata’s goals does not revolve solely around Kageyama. He has other rivals, other strong players he wants to beat. He wants to be strong for his own sake too, but his biggest motivation and inspiration remains Kageyama, hence why he’s the final boss.
All of these imo is best displayed through the imagery of hinata looking at Kageyama’s back, tirelessly chasing after him on his bike
finding Kageyama in his path in Brazil, seeing him on tv, a direct parallel to his first encounter with the little giant which is so underrated
“won’t be outdone” pls learn how to be normal….
>ᴗ<
If you were to ask me my favorite kagehina moment ever it would most likely be ‘I win this time too' simply bc of how unique it is and how It’s a testament to how deeply shoyo values their promise.
Hinata's world crumbling down, he desperately wants to stay on the court and no else one could comfort him with those words. No one could get him to stop crying and recompose himself almost instantly like Tobio did!
he knows hinata best, he knows EXACTLY what to say to get through to him. This time he wins but there will be a next time.
and if you heard the voice act by the VA, shoyo sounds so broken and to have Kageyama put every negative thought in his mind on hold and makes him think clearer for a moment there... It’s peak kghn.
I love how before the fated match, Furudate brought back all of Kageyama’s ‘controversial’ quotes to show that everything has been leading up to this moment while also reminding us that those words have served as huge motivations for Hinata, guiding him on his path and keeping him striving for more.
“Eating, sleeping, learning. Everything he did to live was just one long run-up towards that day. The promised day was still far, far away, but it would definitely arrive”
#frdt is so meticulous with the bike imagery#I wanted to capture that#and how important their promise is#hinata shouyou#kagehina#kageyama tobio#Hinata’s unconventional way of longing#haikyuu

So- Danganronpa became a big enough fandom for me that I decided to make a side blog for it! And because…I need a community my dudes
ME:
I’m @snickerzanddoodlez, you can call me whatever you’d like! I’ve finished the first and second games, but I intend to complete the series so please avoid spoilers for DGv3 past Chapter 5 when interacting with me! I did finish the Danganronpa 3 anime (you know, with the different arcs) though!
My favorite characters are Teruteru, Gundham, Ryoma, Byakuya, Kaito, Yasuhiro, and Togami! Fuyuhiko, Gonta, Kokichi, and Monokuma are very close behind :) (NOTE: I don’t support all of these characters’ actions! You know who this disclaimer is about, haha! And my affection of said individual doesn’t exactly extend to the End of Hope’s Peak Academy anime…) Also, I haven’t played Danganronpa v3 yet, but I think I’ll like that weird little guy who looks like Mineta
I’m a Warrior Cats veteran, so…the things I make might end up being a little weird!
I also sell cute lil’ Danganronpa stickers!
I do commissions, too! Fund my Doll-gonronpa Collection
ASKS:
The ask box is always open for questions, discussion, suggesting incorrect quotes / art / animatics, etc!
By the way! I like to be incredibly needlessly angsty and cringy- so we don’t judge here! I’m still getting a feel for what does and doesn’t fly in this fandom- so give me the best you’ve got! All of your angst and ideas- maybe I’ll draw them!)
Just stay generally SFW (suggestive jokes and the likes are fine!) and keep in mind that I am 16!
RPS:
Currently occupied with a few!
TAGS:
Oh! FYI, I tag posts that fit into the same niche the same way! Here’s the list!
Incorrect Quotes - dgnincorrect
Headcanon - danganheadcanon
Posts I Look Back On for Comfort - my happy posts
Animatics / Animation - danganimatic

MY BUDDIES:
(If you are on this list and uncomfy with it let me know!)
-@detective-dick-gumshoes-pot-room
-@susiecampbelll
- @thedaydreamerscastle
MY SHIPS
Please note! As long as it isn’t incestuous / predatory, I don’t really mind what people ship- these are just my biggies! I’m also a really big fan of weird / unconventional ships, despite the lack of them on this list. Not PRO-ships, let’s get that straight, just ships that make you think about ‘em for a minute…like, “who came up with this??” I dig those.
TRIGGER HAPPY HAVOC:
Ishimaru x Mondo
Makoto x Kiyoko
Byakuya x Toko / Genocide Jack (I like to pretend they love each other. And make them less creepy)
Sakura x Aoi
Yasuhiro x Aoi (but as adopted siblings)
Celeste x Hifumi (I’m not active in this ship, nor am I even sure it actually exists I just think they should fix each other)

Summary: Hinata meets her new neighbor in a very unconventional way.
Written for NaruHina Fair, NH Month 2023 Day 11: New neighbors - Thin walls.
Rated T.
"Proper Introductions" - Short One-shot (maybe part of a 2-shot?)
The next door unit at the end of the hall had been left vacant for so long, she thinks at first that all the thumping and yelling noises are happening right outside her own door.
Slightly afraid, she peeks through the door’s peephole, and…it’s some guys who might be around her own age…and they’re lugging boxes across the hallway and setting stuff down in front of that vacant unit.
A new neighbor! Or neighbors! She doesn’t know what to think. On whether to be happy or concerned. Despite the less-than-stellar living accommodations, she has at least been doing well with her neighbors on this floor. She recognizes and trusts her neighbors, even if they don’t really talk.
Tenants have come and gone from a few of the units over the past year, but for whatever reason, the unit next door has always been left vacant.
Until now.
Rather than go out there and be friendly to some guys she doesn’t know if she can trust, she tests that her door is locked, backs away, and returns to her dinner preparation for the next week.
The energetic yelling, the heavy thumping…she thought it would all become background noise.
It really sounds like it’s coming from her living room.
“This apartment really is crap! Check out his sink!”
She looks up from chopping carrots, attention at the wall where the vulgar speech is clearly coming through.
Her own sink is fine.
She returns to her chopping, but now her curiosity is piqued.
“Why did you agree to this shithole?” A different voice. Some laughter and agreements.
“His stove is a burner.” “The paint is peeling.” “You’ve got, like, one wall socket in the living room.”
“I can afford it, and it’s cheap!”
“How did you even find this place? I’ve been checking all the listings and I never saw this!”
“Oh, I didn’t tell you? The landlady’s my godfather’s friend. And yeah, the other units aren’t like this one. It’s actually a part…” Suddenly the voice gets muffled, and she can’t hear the rest of his sentence.
“Whaaaaaat??” Laughter. Scoffs of disbelief. “Is that even legal???”
Frowning with bafflement, she dumps the carrots in the pot. Grabs a potato, washes it, and starts peeling.
The masculine conversation turns to the furniture and what’s going where, and she continues peeling potatoes.
About twenty minutes later, she’s got all the vegetables and chicken boiling in the pot, the curry blocks are melting, and her stove’s vent is noisily fanning out some of the heavy aroma.
She’s settling into her old couch when she hears the grunts of exertion and occasional discussion become something else entirely, tearing her attention off her phone to the wall.
“AGH, FUCK! Oh, shit! Shit! Naruto!!”
“Wha-, AH-”
A huuuge thunking, breaking sound.
And the top half of a shelving unit of some sort.
Is sticking through her wall. Their wall.
That was apparently hardly a wall.
Utterly shocked and uncertain, she stands, and voices fill the air again.
“Oh shiiiiiiiiit.”
“Ugh. Fuck. Fuck.”
“Oh fuuuuuuuck.”
She's never heard so many swear words so frequently as today, but concern has her taking a deep breath for courage. In the few paces it takes to get to the wall, she manages to ask the hole, “Are you okay?”
Deathly silence.
“Um.” She tiptoes to try to look through the hole, and just at that moment, the “wall” crumbles some more, the weight of the bookshelf too much.
Pieces of “wall” fall to the ground, and she finds herself standing in front of the group of boys. Guys. Young men? One is holding his shoulder and arm. Another is holding his foot. The others have their mouths gaping open in shock and maybe even amusement.
She stands there, taking in their interesting expressions, recognizing for herself how ridiculous this situation is.
“Oh, man.” The rather tall, blond guy who had been cradling his arm looks like he wants the earth to swallow him up. “I am so sorry. I’ll fix it. I swear. I’m so, so sorry.” Hands gesturing spastically, he’s the most apologetic person she’s ever seen in her life.
“Oh, it’s okay-”
“I’m really so sorry.” He bows so deeply, all his friends begin copying him.
She’s never had so many people apologizing to her all at once before. Pulling her eyes off the incredible sight of all these tall guys bowing to her, she quickly decides to pass the uncomfortable attention off of her. “It’s, um, the wall’s fault. I didn’t know it was so thin. It shouldn’t have broken so easily.” So really, this isn't his fault, but rather, the apartment complex's.
The blond one stands straight, obvious stress still lining his features. “Ah, yeah-”
“I should call Senju-san-”
“No, don’t!” He has his hands out to stop her, nearly lunging over his fallen shelf and the pieces of wall between them. “Please, don’t call her, please!”
The begging has her take pause, and she recalls him talking to his friends about his personal connection with their landlady.
“She’ll kick me out if she hears about this! She’ll end me for sure! Please, please don’t tell her.” He’s bowing repeatedly and has the most kicked puppy, begging expression she’s ever seen in her life, and she feels bad that he feels this bad.
She’s never had anyone groveling this much to her before. “Okay, okay, I understand, I won’t tell her,” she soothes, and it’s such a relief to see him relieved.
“Thank you, you’re the best. I have such a nice neighbor!” he gushes in such a sincere tone that it feels like an exaggeration.
His friends apologize and thank her repeatedly in turn, and just to get them to stop, she runs away to retrieve a broom, dustpan, and trash bags.
They insist on doing all the cleanup, so she pretends to be busy in her kitchen as they go back and forth in and out of her living room, and before long, it’s just them and a giant hole between the two units.
“Excuse me.” That blond guy’s voice draws her attention up from her phone. He gives her a meek smile from his side of the hole. “I’ll try to get this fixed up as soon as I can… I don’t have the money for this right now, but-”
“I’ll help since it’s partially my fault!” The brown-haired guy who looked like he might've hurt his foot raises his hand.
“Oh, okay.” She nods her head, feeling the awkward tension still palpable in the air. She decides to brave it and venture closer. She steps out of the kitchen toward their shared wall.
They cleaned up really well.
She passes her scrutiny along the edges of the cracked wall, raises a finger, and feels the material. “Walls are supposed to have framing, right?” There’s none here. She’s not quite sure, but this wall might only be stiff, thick foamboard.
“You should tell her.” A guy with long black hair tied into a ponytail has his hands on his hips, looking at the blond one pointedly.
She turns a confused look at him.
Her new neighbor sighs heavily. “Umm, well, to be honest… My unit is supposed to be a part of yours.”
She turns this piece of information over in her head, and despite the cautious and meek look on her neighbor’s face, she’s not angry or disturbed. Instead, she feels interested, almost amused. “What? Really?” she asks, genuinely curious. “Why?” She ventures another step forward, and they make way for her to peek into his unit.
“Uhh…” he intones.
She spots the burner stove on a counter that looks like her kitchen counters.
“I’m not sure why. I’ll ask my godfather. He’s the landlady’s friend.”
She gapes at a toilet tucked in a corner of the room and one simple sink.
It’s like her living room and kitchen were supposed to be twice as big. Instead, this area got cut in half. His door should be her door. Instead, it seems like her door was cut somewhere it's not supposed to be. That closet next to his door should be hers...
“When you get a good deal, you don’t ask questions, you know?”
She knew her unit was cheaper than others. She didn’t ask why. “Yes, I know what you mean...” She certainly understands now.
“Ahh, I didn’t get to introduce myself.”
She blinks up at him, realizing that they completely skipped over introductions in all the chaos.
“My name is Uzumaki Naruto.” He bows and straightens. “I’m 22 years old and just graduated from the University of Konoha. I’m starting work at Representative Hatake Kakashi’s office next Monday. I swear I won't be a bother to you anymore.”
She bows. “It’s nice to meet you.” She offers him a small smile. “My name is Hyuuga Hinata. I’m also 22 years old, but I graduated last year from Biwako Women’s College. I work with Konoha Tourism Authority. I hope to get along with you.”
He gives her an impressed look that she shies away from and without letting her stew in her awkward feelings, he rapidly introduces his friends to her in a blur of names, schools, and jobs. A cry of “The smell of her curry is making me die! You promised to feed us if we helped you move!” and, before she can even offer them any, Naruto and company practically run out the door, leaving her alone with her thoughts.
She stares at the massive hole in the wall.
She honestly has no idea how they're going to fix it.
After checking how much longer she still has to cook the curry, she settles back into her couch to finally relax, but her thoughts quickly return to her new neighbor.
Well, rather than a new neighbor... Nerves race up her legs, and a blush heats her face.
She thinks it might be more accurate to say she just gained a new housemate.
A housemate who's...a man!

❝ 𝐢'𝐦 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐚 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐟𝐚𝐧—𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠-? ❞
𝐢𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡… two men who's share a single brain cell decides to give you their jersey in the most unconventional way possible 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠… atsumu miya x gn!reader, shoyo hinata x gn!reader 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠… fluff, second-hand embarrassment, 1.9k words (atsumu: 0.9k, hinata: 1k) 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬… sweaty atsumu = menace atsumu, definitely not realistic lololol, i guess it's suggestive?? it won't be in the rated-r tag; coming from a volleyball player, [name] mentions a play atsumu did that i'm not sure is entirely possible 𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫'𝐬 𝐜𝐮𝐭… after who knows how long, i finally found the inspiration to write slightly based on this (https://youtu.be/71G7IXjUx6U) video of ronaldo giving a fan his jersey! you could also think of this as sort of a sequel to this post, just with different characters! happy late new year and pretend i didn't disappear for a bit <3
𝐚𝐭𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐮 𝐦𝐢𝐲𝐚. ・゚: *. — 宮侑
the victorious sentiment echoed in the stadium, the cheers specifically belonging the crowds adorned in gold and black. the match between the msby jackals and the ejp raijin had finally concluded, with the jackals coming out on top.
the thing about atsumu was that no matter what—once he gets into your life, he never seems to get out of it. you thought taking a job as a manager for the raijin (which, last time you checked, their home location was definitely not in osaka) would finally get you to part ways with the setter and heal from the obviously unrequited puppy crush that grew out of hand.
unfortunately, the japanese volleyball world seemed to be quite small, considering the numerous times the two teams went against one another. well, perhaps it was good luck for you; you weren't exactly ready to let him go as a friend yet.
(in your opinion, the word 'friend' was a bit of a stretch, but your point remained standing.)
atsumu, like always, was one of the players that were the center of attention in all his sweat-drenched glory; honestly, it was quite difficult not to notice him.
so, after congratulating the opposing team's manager and coach, you decide to be the good sportsmanship-like person you are and praise his performance (as well as stretch his already over-inflated ego... but it wouldn't be that bad, right?)
"miya-kun!" you called out once he was finished talking to some interviewers, running up to him when he acknowledged your presence with that stupidly big grin of his. once you eventually stood before him, it was as if the words you were mentally preparing yourself to say we're stuck in your throat. "y-you did great today!"
"didn't i tell 'ya to call me atsumu? 'ya know i'm not gonna let 'ya call me that when 'samu and i are in the same room, so why stop there?"
you flushed at the forwardness, though you respected his wishes regardless. "well then... atsumu-kun, you did great!"
he arched his neck back with his hands stationed at his hips, laughing for a while at how swiftly you corrected your "mistake."
"wow," the setter chuckled a bit before finishing with a cocky smirk. "didn't think i woulda had one of my fans be a manager for the raijin, out've all people."
you froze a bit slightly for some reason, but found yourself relaxing not long afterward. he never seemed to change. sometimes, you forget he's just as dorky as ever. you didn't hold back from comparing it to volleyball—he still played the same way as he did in high school.
"well, of course i am, atsumu," you've stated blankly, as if this were and obvious fact. before hearing those words fall out, the blond's head drifted slightly to study a nearby team warming up for a match. however, when he finally registered it in his head he widened his eyes, doing a double take. "you've come a long way from high school... and that rally when you faked a dump, a set, yet actually dumped was nothing short of incredible-"
not bearing to let you incessantly compliment him despite it being only five seconds, the man interrupted. "yeah, yeah... i know, i'm amazin', aren't i? is it gettin' hot in here? personally... i think they should tone down the heater right about now, heh."
you noticed that? was along the lines of the blond's thoughts as he tried to cool down the burning red on his face, blazing across his cheeks. the announcers kind of brushed it under the rug, much to his chagrin, yet it wasn't a big deal that he was noticed. why did you make it a big deal? most importantly, why did he?
"atsumu!" you called out, breaking him out from his thoughts by perching your hand on top of his shoulder. "you're heating up and spacing out... i know i'm not the jackals' manager but you really have to start lookin' out for yourself. though, i suppose it's kind of warm in here..."
"'ya know what? you don't gotta get me to the infirmary, [name]-san. it's scorchin' in here!"
not paying attention to the somewhat cryptic wording, your eyes bounced around the arena, attempting to find the quickest route to get atsumu taken care of. "right, just follow me okay—oh my god."
it all happened too fast—you swore he was wearing a shirt a few seconds ago, and now it was held snugly around his arms before he practically shoved it into your hold.
rather than resting your focus on his defined figure (though, to be fair, you couldn't but sneak a glimpse of it), your eyes were trained on his damp, black and gold jersey, displaying the number in bold font: 13. a part of you didn't even feel the least bit disgusted at the admittedly gross gesture, you simply were standing there, paralyzed in the sheer audacity of it all.
"i- atsumu, there's no way i can-"
"anythin' for a fan, am i right?" he smirked, paying no heed to suddenly grabbing the attention of various newscasters not to far from you two.
deciding to escalate the situation even further, he added something else to the conversation in a lower tone. "if 'ya want, i can give 'ya my shorts, too."
winking at you and flashing his teeth, you couldn't help but feel the urge to turn in your two weeks' notice.
𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐲𝐨 𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐚. ・゚: *. — 日向翔陽
the awe of the crowd watching the tiniest player in the msby jackals soaring above his teammates and opponents couldn't even come close to holding a candle to your own expression.
it's only amazing to see that he's come so far... you remember when you first discovered HINATA on that low-quality, youtube video you discovered when searching for nothing in particular attempting to fill the void of having absolutely nothing better to do. even at his debut, even at the clumsiness he initially felt during the beginning of the match, you could feel that there was pure passion and skill behind it all.
when you heard that the infamous ninja-shoyo was coming to japan and made the msby black jackal's starting lineup, you knew you just had to purchase a ticket for one of his games as soon as your busy, hectic life would let you. and now here you are, already have been to seventeen of his games (and counting!) managing to somehow score the same seat in the middle of the stadium, particularly on the side with the gold and black team playing.
the excitement coursing in your veins still remained even after 30 minutes since the match had concluded. the little grin on your face continued to stretch as you ordered some onigiri near the food stand that had been set up right outside the volleyball court; not even the scene where one man (who, may you add, bore a strange resemblance to the owner of the food stall) and two others out of your peripheral vision were causing beside you, clamoring about how they deserve food on the house for "winning," wasn't able to break your attitude.
inevitably, your prior upbeat mood had toned down, now replaced by a strong sense of curiosity regarding the situation behind you. it was only a matter of time before you couldn't handle it, swiftly turning your head around to see what was up. though, you weren't necessarily expecting to have your eyes widen at the sight.
the blond one was somebody you recognized from the game earlier and behind him was a spiky, silver haired man, who also participated in the match. apparently, you didn't notice the obvious pattern, seeing as you still managed to widen your eyes even more when you noticed the fluff of orange hair right behind you.
for a split second, both you and hinata locked eyes, before you glanced away first. you directed your attention toward the onigiri stand, hoping that they could just hurry it up your order so you wouldn't have to stand around here for much longer-
"hey!" an unfamiliar voice called out. judging by the way it came behind you, there was an unfortunately high possibility of it being one of those three players. reluctantly, you glanced back, with the opposite hitter's eyes practically boring into yours. "didn't i see you before?"
he was met with confusion as you quirked an eyebrow. "w-what do you mean?"
you hope to the universe he didn't mean he saw you doing something embarrassing, like buying his merch in public or something of the sort.
a few moments pass, mostly consisting of hinata pondering a bit, glancing at you every now and then while looking down at his shoes trying to figure out your identity. how long was your onigiri going to take to get ready?!
"ah! i know!" hinata suddenly exclaimed, pushing the side of his fist into his palm. "you're the person i always see at our games!"
you take what you previously thought was embarrassing back—nothing compared to that tiny observation could be any more humiliating.
"bokuto-san, miya-san, i think we just found a fan!!"
"as if we don't see more than one everyday, shokkun," the blond disregarded hinata's discovery, going back to haggle the price of onigiri with the owner once more, the sounds of their bickering fading behind you.
"ah, it's your very first fan interaction!" the owl-headed one piped up—based on how loud he was, you were surprised he didn't cause an even larger scene. "they're really special, and they're regular too, which makes it super special! you should give them something!!"
ignoring the blatant display of total embarrassment shoved in your face, you noticed how hinata seemed to be thinking rather hard on this subject.
"you know what, i know what you can do!" might as well get something out of this, right? "my onigiri is taking a little while, and since your teammate seems to know the proprietor personally, maybe you can get it on the house for me-"
"i know!" the ginger-haired man interrupted your brilliant idea. regardless, you didn't say anything; you were curious what was in his mind that he believed was better than free food. "i can get you my jersey!"
you blinked owlishly, feeling the urge to cock your head to the side in confusion at the sudden outburst, only being able to muster up a, "huh?"
hinata nodded, almost excitedly. "yeah, i think that sounds good, doesn't it?"
"well, sure, but i think my onigiri would be even better-"
you suddenly sputtered, your words refusing to come out of your mouth as you watched hinata pull up his shirt, exposing his attractively toned body. understandably, not wanting attract too much attention and cause your onigiri to be even more delayed, you grabbed the hem of his jersey and yanked it down.
"i'm good! really, a selfie or something would do!" you panicked, retracting your hands away from him.
"but, wouldn't you want a jersey of your favorite player?"
"...you aren't wrong-"
"then it's settled then!" before your reflexes activated, he yanked his jersey over his head, handing it to you as he bowed. "i hope you support our team in the future!"
you weren't sure if this "souvenir" would encourage you to come to more of their games or swear off of watching volleyball ever again.

🥴 in the fic naruto says sakura and ino were the prettiest girls in their class and somehow sasuke has the balls to ignore them following him around like puppies. he says hinata is really pretty lol. itachi is apparently the second prettiest after sasuke and he thinks it might be a tie between him and kakashi. gaara, neji, tsunade, tenten, kiba and lee are all apparently pretty to him too. there's this scene where he gets drunk and kisses ino, kiba, sai and lee, no internalised homophobia in sight. sasuke goes on and on about sakura and how he has a deep love for her, longs for her and feels affection for her, though he admits it's not in the way she wants. he even thinks she sees through him lol. but the really weird thing is how sasuke doesn't understand how he feels about naruto in the fic. he can admit he loves sakura in the start of the fic (and he can tell that it's not romantic on his end), but he has to have this big epiphany about loving naruto only at the end lol. and sakura obviously becomes so much more understanding lol. I think they're talented and i did enjoy reading the story, but they said they were writing everyone in character so this stuff bothered me 😞
What has always bothered me about fanfics is how they simply do not get how closetedness functions in a homophobic and heteronormative society. I don't know if the writer is American or from some other western country. But as long as you are claiming to be canon compliant, maybe actually research how homosexuality or coming out of the closet would look in societies where it is not acceptable. Konoha/shinobi world is not only heteronormative, but downright homophobic. I mean, Sakura thinks they are brothers because she doesn't know what else to call it, she is homophobic herself, and she knows Sasuke and Naruto are just way too close for being just friends, she could have told Sai they were very good friends, but one of the problems in this world is also a lack of terminology, resulting from a lack of familiarity and comfort with the topic of homosexuality but which is essentially required in order to assign names to certain feelings and relationships and dynamics that are seen as unconventional or different from the norm. Developing a certain terminology is important in order to understand interpersonal issues that are deeply embedded in the socio political fabric. You need a certain level of comfort with the idea of it to introduce and develop this terminology. I have a few gay friends in my circles and one of them has been in a long term partnership with a much younger man. The younger man is closeted and they live together, but he hasn't come out to his family or close friends. Although his family does stay over and they think their son lives with his Teacher. And they are fine with it. They are deeply conservative people and staunchly heteronormative, which is why he hasn't come out and I am pretty sure they have an idea about his sexuality, even if it is unsaid and full of obfuscation. But they don't wanna take action because being with the Teacher has been good for his career and he is able to send money to them to contribute to their household. There isn't just one reason of course, but invariably, whenever his friends or family come over, they never acknowledge their relationship even though it is so obvious. They call it a teacher student relationship who incidentally also cohabit. There's a lot of denial going in there, but it's understandable in their circumstances.
I get the feeling that they aren't totally comfortable with the idea but they are also under certain obligations themselves and they are grateful to the Teacher. But you see, the terminology is missing. There's also a major class difference.
Often in homophobic societies, and I live in one, there is so much taboo, prejudice, obfuscation and lack of information/comfort/familiarity around the idea of same sex relationships, that it's difficult to carry on a dialectic with the proper assignment of terms. Gay or homosexual is not a word anyone will use here. They will use a slang word, which denotes something derogatory. Or if they wanna deny it altogether, they will use some other word for it. Like brother or sister. Or best friend, or room mate, or Teacher. It's such a common phenomenon to reduce, invisibilise and trivialize homosexuality by giving it names that are incongruent with the actual nature of the relationship. It's almost criminal how much this invisibilisation is normalised.
I remember when I was very young, like 12 years old, I was in the car with my mother and her friend. And her friend was crying because her sister was not agreeing to marry. Marrying here invariably means heterosexual, heh, it's just a social reality. Because she had shacked up with her 'best friend', another girl, her college friend. They lived together and she would keep rejecting offers that the parents suggested to her. She was of the perfect age to marry and they were worried her golden age would pass her by and she would become a spinster, of course they blamed her best friend for it. Lol.
Now the thing is, there was a strange tonal quality to the term 'best friend' in her voice. She was weeping and I just couldn't understand why it would be a problem if her sister wanted to stay with her best friend. Lol. I thought it would be so much fun. Hahaha. I was very young. I remember asking my mother about it later and she shushed me telling me it was none of my business and not to talk to anyone about it. And it puzzled me even more.
Make no mistake, language is an inherently important and indispensable part of postulating and hence comprehending socio-politico-cultural issues and concepts, and as a result, navigating interpersonal dynamics and understanding. It's not a coincidence that this manga stresses so much on the importance of 'communication', and Naruto's character is point blank shown to stress on it, it's one of the most important lessons he learns in the course of the manga. You can't understand emotions without verbalising them in your head. Linguistics is an inseparable part of comprehension, whether it's about computing internal or external data, or both in conjunction. And when it comes to storytelling, it becomes one of the most important building blocks of expression and getting the story across to the readers or viewers. Naruto is shown to stress on communication in Boruto as well. And we see throughout the course of the Naruto and Shippuden manga, how Naruto comes to learn about and understand different characters' and especially anti heroes' feelings and resentments directed towards their dystopian world. In the kage arc, he says to Sasuke on the bridge - Sasuke, we will never be able to understand each other by words alone, we can only communicate properly by using our fists. Maybe if we can understand each other, I can change all that hate, like Iruka sensei did for me.
And yet, in the climax of Shippuden, at Sasuke's insistence, it was Naruto's words that finally resulted in Sasuke's resolution, which finally broke through to Sasuke. Because those words showed his understanding. His feelings. His love. For Sasuke.
Kishi is a well read, well informed author. It shows in his work, even the different sources he takes inspiration from, such as Monzaemon Chikamatsu and acclaimed seinen mangas. Stories and characters don't come out of oblivion.
Homosexuality having the status of taboo itself means that there will be a dearth of conversations around it, there will be a lack of normalisation around it. It will carry a weight of malignance around it, something unnatural, something dirty, shameful. There is a lot of shame attached to this topic, which explains the lack of terminology around it, or appropriate wordage around it. Calling them boyfriend or girlfriend is not so acceptable in conservative societies. Or lovers, same sex partners. 'Partners' is something that I have noticed to be more prevalent in current times around me. But it's also evident that it is vague. Purposely so. It's to minimise judgment.
And this is something I see consistently in this manga. There is so much going on throughout, as to what term to assign to this relationship between Naruto and Sasuke. Sakura calls them brothers but she knows they aren't. She is suspicious of Naruto when he says Sasuke is much better looking than Sai and then backpedaling about it. She fake smiles. Also, if she thought they were brotherly, she wouldn't have felt so threatened by Naruto. She tries to create distance between them, all to no avail sure, but she is obviously insecure about her own position in their equation. She doesn't stand anywhere in it, but she does think Naruto comes between her and Sasuke, and their special relationship threatens her intentions towards Sasuke. Similarly, Kakashi thinks it's because they are 'rivals' and tells the same thing to Jiraiya, who compares Naruto and Sasuke with himself and Oro, when Naruto and Sasuke's relationship is not really like theirs in essence. We also know that Kakashi is not the most reliable person when it comes to understanding emotional and interpersonal nuances. Just like Sai isn't, who thinks Naruto loves Sakura. Similarly, Minato tells Naruto that his 'best friend' is about to arrive on the battlefield. People in Konoha give so many names to their relationship and yet, Sasuke insists Naruto define it for him in chapter 698, because he wants to hear it from Naruto.
Naruto himself struggles so much in this regard. It always bothered me why Sasuke was not affected positively when Naruto wondered if Sasuke was like his brother. Sasuke had a brother and then, he almost as good as lost him in a way. He was certainly very fond of Naruto, if he thought of Naruto as brotherly, he should have been pleased, no? Narratively, even if he tried to deny feelings that might potentially weaken him, he is pensive or annoyed or even displeased when Naruto says they are friends or brothers. Never pleased, not even a smile. And he is capable of smiling when it comes to Naruto.
But he never does. He keeps asking Naruto to define the relationship, he isn't happy even when Naruto says they are friends. Which is why Sasuke is PUSHED, albeit with reticence, to ask - You have said that before but what does it exactly mean to you?
This is so nuanced and so understandable. He wants Naruto to assign a term to it. It's significant, it's important. A term that explains their feelings accurately so they both know. They live in a world that doesn't have the terminology to support same sex relationships, they have no frame of reference as to how to talk about it. They struggle with talking about their feelings in the first place. Their communication game is lacking. Their world only taught them how to exchange blows, not words. So a perceptive Sasuke demands a term that rightly defines it. Because 'brotherhood' or 'friendship' is not cutting it. Obviously. Naruto had been calling him a friend all this time.
Even here, the dissonance. The words Naruto uses feel incommensurate with the term 'friend' no? Like seriously what other friends in this manga act or talk like this for the other? Sasuke is his 'friend' and a bond like that can Never be broken. But we as readers, know from context that bonds of friendship were broken in this manga, what with Oro and Jiraiya or Sakura and Ino (for very frivolous reasons too), and later, with Kakashi and Obito. If there were no nuances to their relationship, I would have gladly ignored it. But then Naruto goes on to say what he would do to Oro (shivers, lol) to protect Sasuke. Like just the lengths he is ready to go to. And it fits with the idea that Naruto's feelings for Sasuke are way more intense than just friends, consistent with how they seem with each other in part one, especially vote one. Naruto dilly dallies between so many terms for Sasuke. A friend. A rival. A comrade. A brother. On the one hand, Sasuke consistently uses very emphatic terms for his feelings for Naruto when he says Naruto is his closest friend or his one and only friend, Naruto's terms for Sasuke are always a lot incommensurate with his actions towards Sasuke. And it invariably creates a dissonance in the reader's mind. Kishi manipulates the reader very successfully. Also, we all know that Kishi uses his kanji for these two characters very carefully, as he has said in his interviews as well. Apart from visuals, this is also written media, language and wordage is indispensable to storytelling.
But AT THE END, Sasuke gets mad, and asks him point blank, as to what exactly it means to him and right on cue, given this is a conclusive chapter and Naruto can't say the same shit he has been saying before this (which DID NOT satisfy Sasuke), that even if Sasuke were ask him to explain it, he doesn't know either.
He doesn't know. He has been going through the motions for such a long time. We have seen him getting insecure about his sexuality many times. Like Kishi made so many of his scenes layered, just to point it out to the reader. That he is a closeted homosexual, he suffers from comphet and internalised homophobia as a result. This panel, which is towards the very end, explains so much.
Kishi is not a fool. He is a very clever author. This depicts Naruto's struggle about his sexuality so much. He obviously wants to make sure that his LAST conversation with his father is meaningful and that everything his parents wanted Naruto to be and achieve, Naruto will satisfy. Naruto wants to assure Minato, and he doesn't wanna lie. But he also cannot make himself say it. This boy who always wanted family, finally met them through a stroke of luck (or fate) but his was still a special case. He goes into such detail about everything, everything Kushina asked him to do, all the ninja taboos, but he broke down at that moment, about women. That it should be a woman he must marry is pretty much implied no? More than implied, it's a heteronormative society after all. Kishi is NOT stupid, this was a very smart way of layering his internal turmoil, his struggle with his sexuality because he loves a BOY. Not a woman.
And thing is, all this is very realistic. Very. It has been a persistent element/trope in most coming of age films that I have seen about homosexuality. Except for films like Love, Simon (very surface level and simplistic) or 'Call me by your name' because Elio has very forward thinking parents and he lives in a very affluent and liberal society. He doesn't have the same kind of hangups about his sexuality. But films like Esteros (Brazil), Eternal Summer (China), Beach Rats (America), Giant little ones (Canada), Posledice (Polish), And then we danced (Georgia), The Blonde one (Argentina), Brokeback Mountain (America), Free Fall (German) and more, all of these films are about sexual coming of age drama or sexual awakening and have the same tropes. Comphet. Denial. Internalised homophobia. Emotional turmoil. Dilemma. Burden of societal expectations. Pain. Misery. Confusion. Even rage.
And these are really good films too. Very thoughtfully made.
There are so many complex facets to homosexuality and coming to terms with or even acknowledging it is such a complex and difficult process for young, naturally insecure, and dilemma ridden (moral dilemma included) individuals in a conservative society. Naruto always wanted to be acknowledged and not shunned from society, he didn't want to be ostracized, not after everything he went through, and certainly not to disappoint his parents. In fact, kage arc was very definitive for Naruto. But throughout Shippuden, he has been going through the motions. When Sai seems like he has defected to Oro, Team Kakashi, Yamato specifically, confronts him, and Naruto is like - Who cares what he has to say, Sai is a traitor.
He has strong feelings about Konoha.
But when he hears about Sasuke joining Akatsuki, he is worried. Puzzled, in a quandary. So many people, people he likes and respects, tell him to make the right decision, it being to capture or kill Sasuke. But he cannot do it. He goes through a very terrible time, he is wracked with worry and conflicting emotions and internal struggle. He takes his time to come to terms with all his emotions. And then finally, when he hears that Sakura is out to kill Sasuke (lolol, sorry couldn't help it), something snaps in place inside him and he makes his decision. No matter what, no matter what, Sasuke will not be hurt. Naruto will take care of it. The idea of Sasuke being hurt imminently makes the decision for him and it just clicks to him where his priority lies. He will not kill Sasuke. And if it comes to that, that it's between killing him and protecting Konoha, he will protect Konoha but also, die with him. He is not your typical hero in that sense. He takes the middle path. A hero would typically let go of his personal wishes for the greater good. But Naruto's personal wishes are for Sasuke to live and be happy, no matter what happens. He told Itachi that when the time comes, and if Sasuke attacks Konoha, he will make the right decision. This is his decision. The point is, he will simply not live in a world without Sasuke. He refuses. He will remain a fool and die but not live without Sasuke. He doesn't care about any fucking thing if Sasuke isn't in his life.
Kage arc made him realize that his feelings for Sasuke were bigger than being hokage and Konoha. And so he chose a path where he didn't compromise with the safety of Konoha's people and yet, didn't let Sasuke down. Sasuke must live or he will die.
So by now, Naruto certainly knows that his feelings for Sasuke are not 'normal', even if he didn't say it, but that's the feeling the reader gets. And because we know the context of shinjuu, we know it's supposed to be romantic. The idea of double suicide carries a lot of heft in South East and East Asian literature, classic and popular, whether it be Chikamatsu, the greatest Japanese dramatist who wrote almost exclusively on the subject, and South East Asian stories such as Heer Ranjha, Mirza Sahiba, Sohni Mahiwal, Sassi Punnun, etc. And these stories are part of the popular romance lore, they are extremely popular.
So when Sasuke asks him angrily and insistently (the kanji that Kishi uses here depicts Sasuke to be emphatically triggered), Naruto knows what Sasuke is referring to and he knows he cannot lie about it. But he also cannot say it. He has a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders. But he also cannot lie to Sasuke. Of course, this being shounen, Kishi also had to navigate carefully. But the BIG difference is that Naruto stops lying. Lying probably is not the right term. Misstating. He owes it to Sasuke to tell him the truth. And he tells him, that he doesn't know what to call it, but he knows how it feels. So what he essentially does is that he explains the underlying sentiment to Sasuke by telling him that he hurts when Sasuke does, but that he won't name (explain it) it because he doesn't know it himself. It's such a feeling that Naruto cannot name it. Now, we as readers ALREADY know that he has already used terms like brother, rival and friend. But he deliberately moves away from all of those. Let's not forget that Naruto's most important strength was his talk no jutsu, his ability to connect and put it in words that finally affected the antagonist or anti hero archetypical characters in such a way, that would lead to their resolution. Naruto is different from others in this very sense, to be able to communicate in the right way. But Sasuke was his greatest test in this manga. And he couldn't convince him, he kept misstating the nature of their relationship, but towards the climax of the story, it was important for him to say the right words to Sasuke, especially after Sasuke asked so insistently, so passionately. Because he owes it to Sasuke to tell him the truth. He cannot deny it anymore. Not after all that has happened. So we know from context that it isn't any of those terms or feelings that he used before. But it's something else altogether. What else could it be? Sasuke obviously suspected it. Or else he wouldn't have gotten triggered like this. And with exactly these heavily heartfelt words of Naruto's, when he tells Sasuke that he hurts when he sees Sasuke carry his burden, so much that he just can't leave it alone, and that he would keep fighting for Sasuke, no matter what it takes, Sasuke is finally, finally also led to his resolution, no? He says with such a peaceful expression on his visage - I have lost.
He finally accepts Naruto's love, he finally lets the love in.
Dialogue is very intricately linked to narrative and visual language, but it's so evident, it doesn't need to be said.
We also cannot ignore the way they speak to each other. Kinda like, in codewords.
When two world class shinobis trade blows, they can read each other's thoughts. So tell me, did you see what's in my heart Sasuke? How I really feel? We are not the same kids who fought here once, you know my heart, and I yours, right Naruto? If you know, then why are you doing it? That's exactly why i am doing it. Don't make me repeat it Sasuke, you already know, don't you? Now that I think about it, you were always stupid. Those feelings, those things you once talked about, now I understand what you meant by them, Naruto.
The point is, by the end of chapter 698, Sasuke knows Naruto loves him. Naruto also knows Sasuke loves him, he had known to a large extent since vote one, but his feelings got solidified as he went along his life journey. This is the resolution of this story, this is also a story about their coming of age. It wouldn't make sense for both of them to be oblivious of each other's feelings at the end of it, it will be a failure of both their painfully developed character arcs and the narrative itself. And 698 highlights how they both come to know about their feelings for each other, after so much that they both went through. Properly this time. Explained in more words that they were ever able to use before. This isn't a topic that they can talk about so freely. They don't have a terminology for it, but they somehow managed. This is what all this narrative development led to. This is how storytelling works.
Chapter 699 gives the reader a hint of what's to come after this resolution. The nightmare. Everything that went wrong. Everything that left the resolution of their character arcs awry. Not meaningless but certainly disparate. Naruto and Sasuke talk to each other like they have talked more about what transpired with them in 698. And both have come to a position where they are going to capitulate to the circumstances.
Because at the end of the day, they are shinobis. The motto of a shinobi is to endure. Shinobi is a well established phenomenon, it's not just meant for shounen or otaku. They are real. Not like Naruto world ninjas, but Naruto obviously takes its inspiration from this phenomenon. The implications of being a shinobi is very well established in the story itself. Kishi made Naruto to deviate from its conventional meaning from the start so he was written as very unlike a ninja, loud, visible and non conformist, at least initially and for the most part, except towards the end. Shinobis/ninjas are supposed to endure. Following are screenshots from an acclaimed Japanese ninja series of films called Shinobi no mono.
Happiness and pride are not for the ninja. He doesn't live for himself. He lives for others. A collective is more important than the individual. He is born in darkness and he will die in darkness. He is literally a tool. That's what a shinobi is, from a modern ethical understanding, which is valid.
But Kishi couldn't have shown a happy ending for the boys, not with the sequel that essentially required their capitulation to this world to be able to make the new gen happen. The ending has shades of existentialist themes, which are pretty much present throughout what with the cycle of hate and revenge and infinite tsukuyomi, but that the manga ended it on the same note doesn't come as surprising does it?
Kakashi, a loyal, unawakened and complacent slave of the system climbs the rungs of power and becomes the hokage. Suck up to the right people and you will get places. Top administrative power. And he never really changed, he tells Sasuke at the end that it was because of his and Naruto's efforts that he didnt end up in jail and then proceeds to tell him to be good and careful not to regress, but still never acknowledged his mistreatment and insensitivity to Sasuke's feelings and motivations and very valid reasons. Sakura expected Sasuke to apologise and repent when it was she who was clearly in the wrong, who never understood him. She keeps pulling the same shit she always does, neither her nor Kakashi are made to pay consequences for their actions, instead, they get rewarded. Itachi is venerated, his truth is still hidden and Uchiha clan never got justice or even vindication, given they never summoned the kyuubi, its secret still being kept under the shadows.
( *Note - Nobody start with me as to how it was the right thing to do, you do NOT want to get me started there because you don't know what you are talking about. )
And how will any vindication happen when the world they live in doesn't really celebrate individuality? In fact, supresses it. It was funny to me when Bee reprimanded his brother telling him he was not his tool, that he was an individual who couldn't be suppressed but then Darui tried to convince himself that he was Raikage's left hand (or right) and that he wasn't a tool. Heh. Sarutobi is still revered as the ideal leader, when he himself admitted his complicity in Uchiha massacre, Tobirama was glad Uchihas were shown their place, and Oro, the outlier, the one who is objective because his reasons are revolutionary in his own desensitized way, a result of this heartless corrupt system that gives birth to undesirables like him, who collects other undesirables, the wretched, outliers and rejects, and makes his own village, is shown to be under surveillance, but he supported the war effort crucially, deviating from his objectives (even if only because of his interest in Sasuke and not because of the village), so he gets his redemption. So does Kabuto. Neji dies as a slave, something he was determined to fight against, and Hinata got her win, she got rewarded when she didn't work for it even a little bit. But she is rich, from a major clan, an heiress. A princess. The daimyos were shown as entirely privileged, uncaring and blasé about the war, carefree, playing cards or whatever, while the shinobis that were guarding them grumbled but then just accepted their fate, to the way of this world. Because that's what happens, doesn't it? It's very realistic.
Kishi didn't write his world as an ideal world. He essentially wrote it as a dystopian world. And his influences are pretty much based on dystopian ideas themselves, featuring major existentialist themes. Ghost in the shell, Jin-Roh, The Matrix, Berserk. Including introspective films about xenophobia and socio political inequality such as District 9 and Elysium. Same director. The part where seeing Itachi's predicament that greatly affected his own and his entire clan's, Sasuke is moved to think of fundamental questions such as - What is village, what is shinobi, what is the purpose of it all? underlines his existentialist despair. His answer to it did not come out of the blue. Like many fans think. But he was written to give up his goals entirely.
And Naruto. Well Naruto said goodbye to Sasuke. He gave Sasuke his hiatiate back. And this boy, who moved the sky and earth to bring Sasuke back, bid him goodbye with a certain meditative, contemplative stance. But not unhappy. Not his usual chirpy self. Not his usual spirited, chatty and loose tongued self. But introspective, pensive. Like they had reached a decision together. Later on, he married someone like Hinata and took a job that killed his spirit. Don't even think he isn't paying for his loyalty for Konoha, where he had to kill all his individuality and murder his zest for life and adventure, and become another cog of this unforgiving, relentlessly cruel world. Lifeless and eternally tired. A colourless husk of his older self. He couldn't even bother to attend his own hokage ceremony.
Kishi is not an ultra leftist, even though I can see he understands left ideologies, appreciates it quite well, and no wonder, Sasuke was partially inspired by Sanpei Shirato's Sasuke. He wrote Sasuke's character with such nuance and veritable shades, the claim that he is some ultra nationalist is empty. He is also not a fascist. Because if he were, the end of it all would have been shown as a reward. A prosperous haven. The best outcome of all possibilities. Your reward for loyalty. That is always the conclusion of the right wing narrative. Kishi is a realist. He appreciates existentialist themes, Japan can be credited with coming up with a whole library full of existentialist literature, as a result of the aftermath of war and the generational trauma can be seen and felt viscerally in the themes of their stories. Stories about meditation on war and the nature of war, the after effects of war, the human ethos behind them. Existentialism as a theory and way of life itself became quite a thing post war even if the theory itself was introduced before it, because it reflected what the war did to people, how it affected them, what it did to their psyches and thought processes. How certain things/ideas/thoughts/beliefs that carried social and moral value for them were rendered immaterial.
Anyway. Sasuke says - I didn't think you would come to see me off.
Naruto says nothing. This hyperactive goofball of ready words and catchphrases and nicknames just haltingly handed him back his slashed hitaiate.
The ending is - Perhaps this is what makes us ninjas.
Yes it does. Ceaselessly enduring pain and grief while giving up personal and individual wishes and desires and need for justice and their individuality does make them ninjas.
Continuing the status quo does make them ninjas. Nothing really changed, nothing really mattered. There's a certain melancholic quality to this scene. Which feels different in terms of tone and pacing, doesn't it?
Regardless, it's tragic.
Naruto is different in this scene in chapter 699. I think they have already discussed it by this point. And I think they have already come to some conclusions. What exactly did they talk about, we will never know. And I would give Kishi a lot of my money and a big part of my prized possessions, including my time, to know.
But well.
Now to come to what this ask was about, lol, I have yet to come across a fanfic that does justice to them, their story and narrative. Of course, it would be unrealistic to expect that everyone would get it, but is it unrealistic that at least someone should get it?? If I can see it and others can too, can't writers do something with this? This is such rich material, with so freaking much potential. There are so many possibilities, writers can use these themes creatively. And these are mostly my condensed thoughts, I will probably go in more detail some other day. And honestly, it takes some research, sure. But don't writers put some research in it anyway?
But they go for the easy route. It's okay, that they write what they like, but at least don't call it canon compliant. Most fans don't even understand canon. Give yourself some more credit, there's so much to discover.
At the end of the day, whenever I read some fic, unless it is supposed to be light hearted, it mostly just ends up disappointing me. Especially the ones that are based in canon universe.
This fic shows Naruto as an oblivious idiot when he is more perceptive than most fans think. He understands a lot of things, he is not a doofus, he is much more experienced at the end of the manga, he is aware of some realities and he is only going to learn more. And more. He understands his own emotions. Towards Sasuke as well. Sasuke is also shown as someone who doesn't even understand that he is attracted to Naruto when he has almost always known he was. Why else would he give up his life the way he did in land of waves? Gaara, btw, is perhaps one of the very few people who understand loneliness and being ostracized. Just him, Sasuke and Naruto, more prominently in this manga. He didn't attack Sasuke in kage arc, he could have. He is also perceptive enough to know that Naruto loves Sasuke, he also understands it better than Lee, who is a simplistic character, who thinks bad people's deeds are bad. Gaara understands that loneliness and hatred can drive people to do things they otherwise wouldn't. He resonated with Sasuke. He understood his predicament. and Naruto's. Which is why he said what he said to Naruto in kage arc. I love his character and I wish more people understood him. I swear if I could have broken the screen and picked small Gaara up when his salve got rejected by that child, I would have and I would have run....far.
Ino is portrayed as carefree and confident, sure. But I dont think she would be so fine with Sasuke being gay. She, till the end, was a Sasuke fangirl. There's absolutely no indication that she would have been fine with homosexuality. Nor would have others. Konoha presents a very bleak prospect for Sasuke and Naruto's relationship to be accepted.
I know this is a lot to take. And I know not everyone cares so much. But calling it canon compliant or 'in character' when it certainly is NOT, is taking it too far. Let's try a bit more. No?
Oh and I also didn't care about their intimate scenes. Because Naruto and Sasuke, once they get going, I think it would be like a bloody dam breaking off. It would start slowly, tentatively but then, it would burst out. And it would be unstoppable. I am talking years of repression here. Emotional and sexual. And more importantly, they trust each other all the way. I don't think tsunami would be able to stop them. It would be instinctive and natural, like everything else with them is. They might fumble and break stuff but more than anything else, it would be a desperate need to join together, to meld together, to finally be with each other as they were meant to be. They, who couldn't even touch without the pretext of a spar or a battle, if they finally allowed themselves to touch each other, it will be like a torrential force of emotions that would leave them scorched and they won't be satiated until their need to touch and reassure themselves, that it was finally happening, that they can finally touch each other, that they can HOLD each other, without feeling guilty or tabooed, that they can fuse their bodies with each other, to find not just emotional but physical reassurance, would come alive and transformed. They would run ragged. It would be passionate and tender and emotionally overwhelming, it would break barriers and boundaries, it would be a Godly experience for both. Like finally feeling at home. To be finally able to find that refuge in each other that only they could provide each other, in a world where no one else could even understand. It would be magnificent and insane and gentle and teasing and loving and sweet and painful and violent. All the damn shades. They aren't like you or me. They are different, because they are them. And no one can compare. But I can imagine.
#okay this went on as well#yall make me write too much lol#sns#ask#anon#sasunaru#narusasu#sasuke#naruto#uchiha sasuke#uzumaki naruto

The Enchanted Tapestry: Love's Enduring Magic
Once upon a time, in a small village nestled deep within the enchanted forest, lived a young boy named Hinata Shoyo. Known throughout the village as "Little Red" due to his vibrant ginger hair and always wearing a red cloak, Hinata had an adventurous spirit and a heart full of compassion.
One fateful day, while Hinata was on his way to deliver supplies to his grandmother's cottage, he encountered a mysterious figure lurking in the shadows. This figure was none other than Atsumu Miya, a rather peculiar individual with an undeniable air of danger. Atsumu was known as the "Big Bad Wolf" by the villagers, a nickname he had earned due to his coyote-like nature and his connection to the untamed wilderness.
Despite the warnings of the inhabitants about the Wolf, Hinata found himself inexplicably drawn to Atsumu's enigmatic presence. There was something captivating about the way Atsumu carried himself, his blazing golden eyes filled with both mischief and longing. It was then that an unexpected, forbidden connection began to grow between Hinata and Atsumu.
Their encounters became more frequent, as if fate itself was determined to bring them together. They would meet in secret, deep within the vastness of the forest, seeking solace in each other's company. Hinata was both fascinated and terrified of the monstrous reputation Atsumu carried, yet he couldn't resist the captivating pull they shared.
Their love bloomed like forbidden flowers under the moonlit nights. Hinata soon discovered that there was so much more to Atsumu than the villagers' stories would have him believe. Atsumu possessed a kind heart, desperate for acceptance while yearning to abandon the role he had been cast in as the "Big Bad Wolf." It was through their clandestine encounters that Hinata learned the depths of Atsumu's tormented soul.
But their love was far from easy. The villagers, fueled by fear and prejudice, despised the connection between Little Red and the Big Bad Wolf. They tried to tear them apart, wary of the potential devastation that could arise if their forbidden love were left unchecked. Yet, this only fueled Hinata's determination to fight for what he believed in, their love having become the most precious thing he had ever known.
Amidst the turmoil and danger, Hinata and Atsumu held on to each other, knowing that the love they shared had the power to overcome any adversity. Their souls intertwined, they became beacons of hope in a world that constantly tried to extinguish their flame.
In the end, it was their unwavering love that triumphed. The villagers, witnessing the strength and purity of their bond, began to question their prejudices and open their hearts to a love that defied expectations. And so, Little Red and the Big Bad Wolf, Hinata Shoyo and Atsumu Miya, stood together, forever entwined against all odds, a testament to the transformative power of forbidden love.
As the village slowly embraced their love story, it sparked a wave of change. The villagers began to question the assumptions they had held for so long, realizing that appearances can be deceiving and that love knows no bounds. In time, other unconventional relationships began to bloom within the village, as people found the courage to follow their hearts, just like Hinata and Atsumu had.
The once-hostile villagers now celebrated diversity and encouraged acceptance, cherishing the unique souls that lived within their midst. They realized that the world was a much brighter and richer place when love was allowed to flourish, untethered by societal expectations and prejudice.
Hinata and Atsumu's love story also served as a wake-up call to the enchanted forest itself. The forest creatures, enchanted beings, and magical entities had long observed the human world, but the power of Hinata and Atsumu's love resonated deeply within their ancient hearts. They understood that it was time for them to step forward, to remind the humans of the magic that existed beyond their understanding.
Rivers from distant lands whispered their secrets, trees swayed in mesmerizing dances, and flowers bloomed from the touch of a gentle breeze. The enchanted forest cast its spell upon the village, intertwining the realms of humans and magic. It was a testament to the power of love, serving as a constant reminder to the villagers that they were never truly alone.
Hinata and Atsumu continued to live their lives together, their love serving as a beacon of light for others. With their vibrant spirits and unwavering resolve, they became guardians of love, acceptance, and the magical connection that can exist between two souls.
Their tale traveled far and wide, inspiring other villages and kingdoms that had been bound by fear and prejudice. Little Red and the Big Bad Wolf became legendary figures, symbols of a love that had conquered all odds, and reminders that the true strength of a person lies within their heart.
And so, their story, once whispered in hushed voices, became an anthem of love, a melody that echoed throughout the world, reminding everyone that the boundaries of love are meant to be shattered, and that the greatest adventures begin when you follow your heart.
As the years passed, Hinata and Atsumu's love story continued to grow, intertwining their lives with countless tales of courage, compassion, and unity. They became legends, their names synonymous with the power of love and the triumph of the human spirit.
Their journey ultimately led them to create a sanctuary deep within the enchanted forest. It was a haven where both humans and magical beings coexisted harmoniously, basking in the warmth of acceptance and the magic of love. The sanctuary became a beacon of hope for those who had lost their way, a place where they could find solace and healing.
As they stood hand in hand, overlooking the sanctuary, Hinata and Atsumu were filled with gratitude and a deep sense of fulfillment. They had faced countless trials and tribulations, but had emerged stronger, holding onto their love with unwavering determination.
The villagers, enchanted creatures, and magical beings who had once been at odds now lived side by side, celebrating their collective beauty and individuality. The sanctuary became a testament to the transformative power of love, a testament that the world had been waiting for.
And so, their story became etched in the annals of time as "The Enchanted Tapestry: A Love Beyond Borders." It was a title that captured the essence of their epic love, weaving together the threads of courage, acceptance, and the magic that lay within their hearts.
The Enchanted Tapestry became a story passed down through generations, reminding people that love defies boundaries and that there is strength in embracing the things that make us different. It taught them that the world is a canvas waiting to be painted with vibrant colors, and that by embracing love, they too could create their own tapestry of enchantment.
And so, Hinata and Atsumu's love story became a timeless inspiration, a source of hope for anyone who believed that love could conquer even the darkest of times. A heartwarming reminder that, in a world full of possibilities, the greatest adventure lies in simply following your heart.

宮侑
草書宮 from 词典网、草書侑 from tekkai!
i’d say atsumu’s 宮 is fine, but his 侑 is severely missing a stroke in the 亻 part (it’s glaringly obvious that it’s missing but i wouldn’t be surprised if he never notices it himself). at least take the time to slash that 一竪 down bruh
overall not only lacking in pizzazz, but also lacking in effort and comes across as lazy and ever-unconcerned. like he’s being chased by a mandatory quota of writing 100 signatures a minute, which he’s never going to reach bc which 100 people a minute want to receive mediocre ass scribbles and the free giftbag of disappointment it comes with?
佐久早聖臣
草書佐 from 词典网、草書久 from 词典网、草書早 from 词典网!
sakusa’s signature looks like each kanji is trying to cross straits and become hangeul 💀 even these low-effort brush examples i plucked off the internet contain more flavour. there’s almost as little heart put into his autograph as atsumu, but at least his 聖 is guessable. his daily handwriting is probably just as horrible to look at. hooray for new headcanons!
草書聖 from 词典网、草書臣 from 词典网!
if mr. sakuyoomi-san is accepting suggestions, here’s a cool cursive 聖 alternative to consider, in case he’s ever looking to lazify his own signature in the future. and of course, the famed 臣 radical’s cursive form is essentially a hybrid of B and R! unconventional ways of saving time are so fun
木兎光太郎
草書木 from 词典网、草書兔/兎 from 词典网!
bokuto’s 木兎 is good. quite standard and he hits all the major strokes necessary. if a 兔/兎 looks like a swirly intricate R with a beret, you know it’s a good 兔/兎
草書光 from 漢文360、草書太 from 词典网、草書郎 from scwj!
the 光太郎 part noped the fuck outta there tho lmfao. there’s a faint 阝 down there, and i think he likes that it looks like a blown-up B. the rest is very blur, but oh well. i think we’re all inclined to let this slide bc his signature is already long enough by this point. if he went to the same registration office as i did, this signature wouldn’t be allowed due to having too many separate pieces and taking a whole minute to write out, but i’m glad he clearly didn’t go there
日向翔陽
hinata’s looks like it belongs to a 6yo. i can sympathise bc if my name were the 23-strokes-long 翔陽 and i had to simplify it into a professional-looking signature, i’d sweat for months and then end up using something else as my signature. i wonder what his theoretical kanji signature would look like tho
及川徹
草書及 from 词典网、草書川 from 词典网、草書徹 from 词典网!
oikawa’s is pretty standard celebrity/author stuff. i’m sure he has a kanji signature for matters in the east, bc i don’t think his family and peers and the rest of seijoh society would think any good of him if he didn’t have a solid kanji signature since young. the standards for him just feel different somehow compared to hinata. he tries to make a pretty flourish out of it but it’s probably not very consistent. if he spends enough time overseas, he might just start forgetting his kanji signature, like so many elders in my family did. not just simple brain fart; muscle memory can fade away too
牛島若利
草書牛 from 词典网、草書島 from 词典网、草書若 from 词典网、草書利 from 書法大師!
ushiwaka’s is definitely just an enlarged version of his daily handwriting, possibly bc he was given a small round marker to write with, so it felt more like he should be writing it rather than signing it? it’s good tho, very simple and to-the-point. at least, everyone who receives his autograph will never forget whose autograph it was in the first place, unlike. ahem ahem. the more at-risk msby folk. i just imagined myself imitating this writing with my left hand and it reminded me i haven’t practiced my left handwriting in like. a year. whoops
i do believe he’d know traditional brush calligraphy quite well tho if you hand him a brush or pen that supports more artistic expression, given what we’re shown of his family background as well as shiratorizawa’s academic prestige. it helps that he looks like he has the focus to learn this art branch and actually absorb the majority of those lessons
星海光来
草書星 from 词典网、草書海 from 词典网!
hoshiumi knows the optimal way to hold flat markers and calligraphy pens, and i respect that about him. as you can see, the kanji 星 isn’t usually aesthetically pleasing in most traditional brush calligraphy, but hoshiumi draws his sun (the 日 part) beautifully round and big as if it’s shining down upon the rest of him 🌞 very symbolic to something something rivalry with the main character but also his own brightness!!
草書光 from 词典网、草書来 from 词典网!
i very much agree with his 光 and i too write it that way HOWEVER i disagree with his 来 because i think each 波磔(撇 + 捺 to become that 八) should spread out wide and beautiful! like a flowing silk gown! not flat like how you’d write 王 生 里 nooo!!! don’t write like a dusty old crumpled historian from 17th century, hoshiumi!!! end your signature with the same liveliness you started with!!!
影山飛雄
草書影 from 词典网、草書山 from 词典网、草書飛 from 词典网、草書雄 from 词典网!
i still have no idea where the heart is supposed to be in kageyama’s 😭 i keep seeing a butterfly in there???
but i admire how complicated, elaborate, and hard-to-copy it looks! that unforgeability is the single most important thing about personal signatures, according to all dads out there. to make matters better, he’s more than likely the only person on earth bearing the name 影山飛雄. he’s one in a hundred billion! in-universely speaking, this signature is one of the most unique rarity you’ll ever see with your own two eyes. unlike oikawa, whose marketplace name is like, one in eleven. so, if oikawa ever wishes to have a unique signature, he’s gonna have to uhh put his whole ass into it, i guess? 本当に一生懸命頭脳を働かせなければならない
my ratings of the hq character signatures
i got all of these images from @/todokugou on twitter! the adlers & msby ones were merch for the hq exhibit & oikawa’s is from the 2022 calendar.
ratings are entirely arbitrary. enjoy.
miya atsumu
4/10
i know signatures aren't necessarily supposed to be legible but this isn't even illegible in a fun way... where's the pizzazz. he gets extra points because it is very atsumu though.
sakusa kiyoomi
7/10
yes, i put his right after atsumu's because i really liked the contrast between the two. i'm obsessed with how small his signature is. and it looks more legible to me than some of the others? which is pretty fittng tbh.
bokuto koutarou
8/10
FUN. i like how big it is. i like the little swirly flourish. is it legible? eh, not really but i still love it. makes me smile.
hinata shouyou
9/10
fun!! i adore the smiley face, and i love how bold the lines are.
oikawa tooru
10/10
my second favorite signature. i love how big/ long the arm on the T is. very flashy, extremely oikawa. i really like the smiley face in his, maybe even more than i like the smiley face in hinata's.
also hinata's and oikawa's are both interesting to me bc of the romanized versions of their given names that were used.
ushijima wakatoshi
9/10
is it flashy? no but it is the perfect signature for ushijima wakatoshi. by far it's the most legible and honestly, it kinda looks to me like he just wrote his name the way he normally does but Bigger. no notes. you're doing great, king.
hoshiumi kourai
10/10
i am like... not 100% sure what's going on here but i like it!! it's flashy!! i really like the signatures with bold lines like this. i think it really suits the characters.
kageyama tobio
100000000/10
blatant favoritism because it's canon that his signature is the one suga made for him in high school. which is important to me. but even if there wasn't that factor, i would still really like his because of the heart. also like... suga created this signature but it still seems very kageyama to me? which i like.
#obsessed with the way xinghai writes his 星 and 光#i just know he has elegant penmanship#排球#ハイキュー!!#宮侑#佐久早聖臣#木兎光太郎#日向翔陽#及川徹#牛島若利#星海光来#awe little xinghai#影山飛雄#onomastics#(not discussing the onomastics and etymologies exactly but it does relate to the topic)#wow this got long as fuck#sorry i hope this isn’t barging in on the post!#— 凌危贊 talks

I was outlining a new fic idea over FaceTime with my best friend and the ao3 tag she comes up with to describe it was “iwaoi gain self actualization through helping kagehina” and god, what a line!! this is deeply incoherent but the complexities and nuance contained in kagehina and iwaoi as parallels and foils (as individual characters and relationships) really are the driving force of my brain rot.
we have the setter spiker connection, of course, and the two seijoh karasuno matches really drive it home. Oikawa and Tobio comment on the similarities themselves (when backed into a corner they’ll always set to their partner!! that’s why they can read each other so well! also iwaoi’s reaction to “as long as I’m here, you’re invincible is peak, ok) and then later we have the time skip with Oikawa and Hinata both going abroad to Argentina and Brazil to further develop their skills. we have Oikawa and Hinata being drawn together through their hunger for volleyball, the struggles of being alone in a foreign country, and their connection to Tobio as forces that challenge and better him (they are his two biggest influences after all!!). they forge their own independent relationship on that beach and it’s equal parts and hilarious.
Iwa’s role in this is so fascinating as well because there’s so much there that’s hinted at. I could write volumes on iwaoi but I love love love the little glimpses we see about his relationship with Tobio—aka I make fanon mountains out of canon molehills. He’s a good senpai!!! We all know about That Scene™️ and how he defends Tobio; Tobio, hilariously, seems to only remember Iwa’s declaration of “the best team of six wins” and not much before that. Tobio respects him so much and thinks he’s cool! Iwa shakes his hand, ever gracious in defeat when they play for the second time. They lovingly insult and throw their best friends across the room in the same way (am I saying that Iwaoi greatly informed how Tobio views volleyball and relationships? Yes. Come on now, they must have spent a lot of time in the kitagawa gym together before and after practice. He chases after them and there’s that one panel of iwaoi graduating from kitagawa that I’m pretty sure is included in tobio’s flashbacks/backstory in the blackadler match). Who else can relate to Tobio’s mixed feelings about Brazil arc but Iwa? There’s also the fun bonus of Iwa being solely in Tobio’s corner at this point; tobio and shoyou share most of the same friends which could lead to a potential conflict of interest (God help yacchan, tadashi, tsukki, and suga when these morons argue) but tobio can reliably confide in Iwa without it getting back to Shoyou. the possibilities of iwakage friendship/mentorship are endless and I’m here to scream about it, whether it on the Japan national team, middle school, or during the time skip. I also think the dynamic between Iwa, Tobio, and Oikawa is so interesting (jealousy, affection, respect, resentment, oh my) and when you throw Hinata in the mix it’s even more fun.
I have some more vague thoughts on Hinata and Iwa as parallels that go into more angsty territory, particularly about self-worth and how the seijoh karasuno matches mirror each other in the last point. my boys are sad!! they couldn’t make the last point count!! their volleyball careers are different yet similar as they take unconventional paths to fulfill this promises to their respective setter soulmate. in a way, we have kagehina achieving what iwaoi was unable to, which is part of the reason I think kagehina getting together first is an excellent catalyst for iwaoi self reflection time. we have kagehina getting to nationals together and standing on the world stage side by side at the Olympics. Iwaoi are on opposite ends of the court, separated but still connected nonetheless.
I’ll probably add more to this as I write more of my fic/reread the manga and rewatch the anime, but TLDR; kagehina and iwaoi are my favorite relationships in haikyuu and they’re constantly rattling around in my noggin in the worst game of pinball ever.
#this is gonna be a trip to read in the morning lol#Cat writes and screams#haikyuu!!#kageyama tobio#hinata shoyou#oikawa tooru#iwaizumi hajime#otp: i’m here#otp: a partner i can be proud of#kagehina#shobio#iwaoi#this is what new haikyuu content does to me#*bonks head against wall*#haikyuu meta?? sure why not

hii omg I've been trying to refind your blog n im so happy i have lmaooo i hope you're well and taking care of yourself!!
i have a request i don't mind if you make it a headcannon/drabble/story n I'm not sure what the character limit is so I'll suggest a few n you can choose - I like giving people somewhat freedom when they write.
okay so, take your pick lovely : tsukishima, kageyama, atsumu, hinata, kuroo, kenma, ushijima.. literally anyone that would destroy me one way or another aksgsakshgs.
the scenario could be like idk the more experienced guys try teach the others how to make a girl cum... or like kags and hinata/tsukki try see who can ruin their s/o first... if you have any other ideas go ahead
i have too many kinks to try include them lmao once again take your pick : dégradation, breeding, use of "puppy" or "kitten", choking, spit, sadism n masochism, praise, dumbification, overstim.. the list goes onnnnn
anyway okay that's me done im realising that's a lot but like i wanna give you a chance to experiment n write what you prefer. enjoyyy
I know I took a long time getting to this, so thank you for being patient!!
lesson -- kozume kenma x reader, kuroo tetsurou x reader
use of “kitten”, choking, spitting, praise, slight degradation, creampie
2900 words
Sex with Kenma was always good, but even several weeks into your relationship he still couldn’t make you cum. You had tried to reassure him that it wasn’t too big of a deal, you still had fun sleeping with him anyway. But his frustration with himself over not being able to do it only grew over time, and he eventually swallowed his pride and went to the one person he could confide in.
Kuroo’s suggestion was a little… unconventional. But your boyfriend’s desperation to satisfy you had convinced you to give it a shot, and so you found yourself in-between the two of them, undressed and equal parts nervous and excited.
“You okay with me here, kitten?” Kuroo’s low voice purred in your ear as he settled himself behind you, one arm wrapping around your waist to pull you flush against his chest. His skin felt warm against your back, and you could feel a flush creeping up your neck as his teeth lightly nibbled at your earlobe.
“Yeah,” you breathed out, voice barely above a whisper.
“Mm, good,” he hummed as his free hand traced along the inside of your thigh. “Want Kenma to see what I’m doing.”
Your gaze flickered up to your boyfriend’s face, eyes locking with his as he knelt in front of you. He had one hand on your other leg, tightly gripping your knee, but his expression didn’t look nervous at all. He stared at you for a moment before shifting his attention back to his friend’s hand.
Kuroo’s fingers glided over your clit, his light touch making you jolt in his arms. You could feel him grinning as he pressed a few gentle kisses into your neck. “It’s okay to tease her a bit,” he said, his fingers running just along the edge of your thigh. “Make her want it more. The anticipation can be just as good as the main event.”
He repeated the motion, the pads of his fingers brushing over your clit teasingly before moving away again. You couldn’t help but whimper; after the amount of time Kuroo had spent undressing you, his mouth leaving hot kisses all over your body as the knot in your stomach began to form, you were eager for him to grant you release.
“Please,” you breathed out, the word slipping past your lips before you could stop it. Kuroo hooked his chin over your shoulder and looked at you with a smirk on his face. Your eyes slid from his to Kenma’s and back again, silently pleading with both of them.
“You’re so impatient,” Kuroo murmured in your ear, his low voice sending a shiver down your spine. His teeth nipped at your skin as he sank one finger into your cunt, your head falling back against his shoulder at the feeling of finally having something inside you. A soft chuckle sounded in your ear, and you could hear the smile in Kuroo’s voice when he spoke. “So wet already. You want another one, kitten?”
You nodded, eyes falling shut as he fit a second finger in. The heel of his palm rested against your clit, pressing into it each time he pumped his fingers in and out of your pussy. A soft moan escaped you as he lifted his free hand to play with your nipple, and you could feel the knot in your stomach rapidly tightening.
Opening your eyes, you looked up at Kenma again. He was staring intensely at your cunt, his hard cock straining against his boxers. You spread your legs a little further apart, wanting to give him a better view of what Kuroo was doing. Your breath was coming out harder with each passing second as he brought you closer to the edge.
“God, she’s so tight,” Kuroo murmured. “Bet she feels amazing.”
“You’re not gonna fuck her,” Kenma told him in a hard voice.
Kuroo rolled his eyes. “Yeah, yeah, I know.” He kissed along your neck as his fingers increased their pace. “You getting close, kitten?”
“Y-yeah,” you managed to say in a shaky voice. Your fingers were gripping his forearm tightly. “I’m g-gonna cum… o-oh—”
Kenma’s eyes drank in the sight of your muscles tensing as you came, the strained moans and curses leaving your mouth music to his ears. He licked his lips, eager to make you feel that way himself.
“Good girl,” Kuroo purred in your ear. He kept finger fucking you slowly as you came down from your high. When your walls stopped clenching around him, he finally stilled and lifted his hand away to put his wet fingers in his mouth, moaning a little as he licked your essence off of them. “Fuck, you taste so sweet.” He took his fingers out of his mouth and pressed them past your lips. “Clean these off for me, kitten.”
You did as he told you, but you had your eyes on your boyfriend’s face the whole time. Kenma was looking at you with a mixture of nervousness and hunger, and his expression only fueled the desire you felt. One of your legs shifted to wrap around his waist, trying to pull him closer.
“You want Kenma to touch you now, baby?” You hummed in assent, unable to say anything with Kuroo’s fingers still in your mouth. “You heard her,” he said to his friend, removing his fingers and brushing some loose strands of hair out of your face. “Try going down on her.”
Sliding back a little on the bed, Kuroo’s arms wrapped around your body and pulled you down until your head was resting on his lap. Kenma positioned himself between your thighs, palming himself through his boxers with one hand as his other moved up your leg.
“Tease her some more,” Kuroo said as his fingers smoothed lightly over your hair. “I wanna hear her beg for it.” Your brows furrowed as you glared up at him, but he only gave you a self-satisfied grin in return. You didn’t have time to focus on it, however, because the feeling of Kenma’s mouth on your knee drew your attention back to him.
He started slowly kissing up your thigh, almost hesitantly at first, but every shaky exhale that left your chest encouraged him more. When he reached the end of your leg, he lifted his mouth away, warm breath fanning over your pussy and making you shudder, before continuing his kisses up your other leg. You couldn’t help but whimper, your body squirming in frustration. Kenma nipped at your thigh, making you gasp.
“Hold still, will you?” His voice sounded almost annoyed; you immediately stopped moving, allowing him to resume his gentle kisses.
“I think she likes being bossed around, huh?” Kuroo said, still smirking at you.
“Do you?” Kenma asked. You could feel your face heating up in embarrassment as you bit your lip and gave him the slightest nod. The expression that glinted in his eyes made your heart thrill.
“Tell him what you want him to do, kitten.”
“I want you to touch me, Kenma.”
Kuroo clicked his tongue. “Be more specific.”
“I-I want you to use your tongue,” you said, keeping your eyes on Kenma. “I want to feel your tongue on me. Please.”
“Go on, then,” Kuroo said, “lick her.”
Kenma’s head dipped down, but instead of putting his mouth on your cunt, you felt him slowly lick over the inside of your thigh, so agonizingly close to where you really wanted it that you felt like you could scream. He was teasing you much more than he usually did, egged on by his friend’s presence. You whined, unable to keep the pitiful expression off your face as you tilted your head to look at him.
Kuroo let out a breathy laugh from above you. “What’s wrong, kitten? Isn’t that what you wanted?” He lightly traced a finger between your hip bones, the grin on his face widening when your shivered from his touch. “Why don’t you tell him exactly where you want his tongue?”
You sucked in a breath, furious at both of them for making you say the words out loud. “On my pussy,” you said in a quiet voice. “I want your tongue on my pussy, please.”
“Was that so hard?” Kuroo was still looking down at you with a smile. “Better give her what she wants, Kenma, since she asked so nicely.” His gaze finally shifted away from your face. “Start slow.”
After all his teasing, you couldn’t help but jolt a little when your boyfriend licked a long stripe up your pussy, so slowly that your chest burned with frustration. He repeated the motion a few times, reveling in each shaky breath you let out.
“Focus on her clit,” Kuroo said in a low voice, his hand running absentmindedly over your hair as he watched Kenma eat you out.
A breathy moan left your throat as his tongue circled around your clit. The wet sounds coming from his mouth only made you feel more turned on. The heat of Kuroo’s body behind you coupled with the warmth of Kenma’s mouth on your cunt was making your mind feel hazy, the tension in your stomach growing with each deliberate stroke of your boyfriend’s tongue.
“Play with her tits a little, too.”
Kenma reached up to touch your breast, rolling and pinching your nipple between his fingers as his other hand pressed beneath your stomach to keep you still. Moans were freely falling past your lips as his tongue increased its pace. You buried your fingers in his hair, gripping tightly to let him know how close you were. His eyes were trained on your face as he pushed you over the edge, even as your own eyes screwed shut against the pleasure.
“Slow down a bit, but don’t stop.”
You could barely register Kuroo’s words, too caught up in the orgasm washing over your body. It wasn’t until you started coming down from your high that you realized that Kenma’s tongue was still licking your pussy.
“K-Kenma, it’s t-too much,” you gasped, legs trembling on either side of him.
“Shh, you can take it, kitten,” Kuroo told you. “Don’t you want him to make you cum again?”
You didn’t respond, unable to form a coherent thought other than how good Kenma’s mouth felt. Each movement of his tongue over your clit made your brain feel a little foggier as you surrendered your body over to the pleasure.
“I think she’s ready for your fingers now,” Kuroo said. Kenma’s hand left your breast and trailed down your body to fit two fingers into your pussy, easing them in gently when you involuntary squeezed down on them. You were panting as you gazed down at him, your hand grasping at his head even more tightly.
“God, you’re so wet,” he moaned into your cunt.
“Yeah? You creaming all over his fingers like a good little girl?”
Kuroo’s words made a wave of embarrassment rush through your body, but you could feel your arousal increasing. You glanced up to find him gazing at your face with a slight smirk on his lips, his thumb brushing lightly across your cheek.
“Curl your fingers up,” he told Kenma, without taking his eyes off you. When your boyfriend’s fingertips pressed into your sweet spot you gasped loudly, keeping one hand on the back of his head as your other reached up to hold onto Kuroo’s forearm. “Now suck on her clit, and keep pressing your fingers up.”
You couldn’t stop your hips from bucking up into him when his lips latched onto your clit, a yelp leaving your mouth as he started sucking. With his fingers curling repeatedly inside you, it took less than half a minute for him to have you cumming again, your legs shaking wildly around his head.
“That’s it, kitten,” Kuroo murmured at you. “You’re such a good girl.”
You were breathing hard, every nerve ending in your body electrified by the intense pleasure. It didn’t relent, not with Kenma still sucking gently on your over-sensitive bud. He couldn’t tear his eyes away from you, mesmerized by the way you were falling apart completely for him. You whimpered, shifting in his grasp to try to get him to ease up.
“Give the poor girl a break,” Kuroo laughed. Kenma finally pulled away and sat up, stroking himself through his boxers. Kuroo drew your attention back by cupping your chin and tilting your face to him again. “You want him to fuck you now, kitten?” You licked your lips and nodded, and he grinned at you. “You’re such a greedy little girl, always wanting more. Better give her what she wants, Kenma.”
Kenma had already slipped out of his boxers and had his hard cock in his hand, stroking it slowly. He shifted closer and rubbed the head between your dripping folds, mixing your arousal with the precum beading at his tip.
You felt worn out after the three orgasms they had already given you, but you found yourself pleading with him for more. “Please, please, Kenma, I wanna feel you inside me… need you so bad.”
Kuroo chuckled again. “So pretty when you’re begging.”
Kenma pressed his cock into you, his eyes rolling back as his sank into your warm cunt. He had been waiting for this just as long as you had, without being able to touch himself as he watched you getting off. He took a few deep breaths, trying to keep himself from losing his composure as he adjusted to the feeling of you around his cock.
You were barely hanging on, panting uncontrollably as he sank further into you until he bottomed out. This was what you wanted, but your pussy was already so sensitive and every point of contact was sending jolts of overwhelming pleasure throughout your body. You were practically crying out, your nails digging harshly into his back as he started thrusting into you.
“Does that feel good, kitten?”
Kuroo’s husky voice made you look up at him. The playful look that had been on his face earlier had morphed into something darker. You felt a shiver run down your spine as you stared at him, nodded slightly, not trusting your own voice to remain steady if you opened your mouth to answer him.
“Lift your legs up for me, baby,” he told you, and you quickly obeyed. Gripping your legs tightly, he pressed your knees to your chest, angling your hips so that Kenma could pound into you even deeper.
“O-oh, god,” you moaned when his cock hit your sweet spot, pressing into it over and over again and making you tremble beneath him.
“You’re so tight,” Kenma groaned, eyes falling shut. “Feels so fucking good.”
Kuroo’s hand slid from your leg up to your neck, his long fingers wrapping around it and squeezing lightly. “Pretty girl,” he whispered, and his grip tightened on your throat. “You’re taking his cock so well, being such a good girl… such a pretty little kitten.” You moaned then, and Kuroo spit into your open mouth, his hand around your neck keeping you still. Your pussy clenched hard around Kenma’s cock as you felt Kuroo’s spit hit your tongue.
“She liked that,” Kenma muttered, thrusting into you faster, his hands gripping your hips tightly.
“Yeah?” Kuroo grinned. “You like being treated like a dirty little whore?” He spit on you again, hitting the corner of your mouth and smearing it over your cheek with his free hand.
“F-fuck,” you gasped. The lightheadedness from being choked was making the rest of your body feel hypersensitive. Every time Kenma’s hips slammed into yours you felt the knot in your stomach tighten, and it only got worse when Kuroo’s hand snaked down between your bodies to rub fast circles over your clit. You yelped from the overstimulation, trying to writhe away from his touch.
“Shh, you can take it, kitten,” he cooed at you. “Just be a good girl for us and cum again, just one more, pretty girl.”
Hot tears were pricking at the corners of your eyes, threatening to spill over with each thrust of Kenma’s cock. You were moaning and whimpering, struggling to hang on as a white haze crept into your vision.
“Don’t stop, she’s so close,” Kuroo said, but Kenma didn’t need to hear it from him. He could feel it from how your cunt was clenching around his cock, so tightly he could hardly move. His own release was dangerously close, but he forced himself to hold off out of his desire to see you come undone for him once more.
A few more thrusts were all it took. You cried out, mind going blank as your fourth orgasm rocked your body. The spasming of your pussy sent Kenma over the edge, his hips pressing flush against yours as his cum spurted deep inside you.
Kuroo released his hold on your throat; the sudden rush of blood made your head pound as you gradually regained awareness. You and Kenma were both panting hard, muscles trembling slightly from exhaustion. He gazed at you for a moment before bending down and kissing you, so passionately it took your breath away. He didn’t pull out even after breaking the kiss, but instead sat up and ran his hands gently along your legs, his chest rising and falling with his labored breaths.
“How was that, kitten?” Kuroo asked you, the smug grin back on his face. You were still breathing too hard to form any words, simply giggling at him and hiding your flushed face behind your hands. He stroked your hair lightly as he looked over at Kenma. “Think you can do it without me next time?”

Fake Dating: Tsukishima
A/n: This bastard could literally push me into the ocean, in which he’d still be the saltiest thing around, and I’d be like “wow... I love him..”
G/n reader
Tsukishima Kei
You’re childhood friends with him right alongside Yams
And I don’t know what these little kids were bullying you over but after going in for a punch and getting shoved back, Tsuki stepped in
He taunted that the kid couldn’t handle the hit you gave him and after the group ran away, you just sorta followed Tsukishima
You’re friendship took off from there
Sticking to a group of three: you, Yams, and Tsuki did everything together
Such as! Shit talking people like no one’s business :3
OKAY, jokes aside! It’s an awesome friend group
You three have weekend movie nights where you’ll either watch Jurassic Park or bake
Tsuki’s really good at making sweets
Yams and you try to do it like him, but it’s never as good
He’ll tease both of you about it
Don’t worry though, he still eats what you two make because he cares and appreciates all the work you both put in to try to get it tasting good
He’ll also always help if you’re struggling in school
Tsukishima will laugh and say it’s sad you couldn’t figure out that concept in class, then he’ll have a two hour study session to help you understand it😐
He’s the worst no he’s not
You swing by their practice to get little pointers on homework sometimes and Tsuki will immediately help you out
The first time you did this, Hinata screamed and had to be held back from throwing a volleyball at Tsukishima’s head
Hinata was having flashbacks to painful tutoring sessions with him
Specifically sessions where Tsuki would only explain things once before telling him he was on his own
The favoritism is great
Tsuki really saw you and Yams and was like “Ya, I’d kill for them.”
During one of your impromptu visits to your friend’s practice, Noya and Tanaka start complaining about how they don’t have girlfriends and you can just tell Tsuki’s heard this a thousand times
Yams is ignoring it like the champ he is✊
But when after a few minutes have passed, and they’re still talking about it... and are getting louder and closer, you can just tell something bad is gonna happen
And it does, when Noya gets so into his rant about cute girls, that he jumps right into Tsuki
Noya... you can’t rolling thunder your way outa this one
You spare a short glance to your other friend who similarly to you, is sporting a grim look
Turning back to Tsuki, wondering if you need to save Noya’s life, you jump when an arm wraps around your shoulders
“Speaking of dating, you should understand that some people are already in relationships and would rather not hear your sad droning on about not being in one.”
Your brain literally does not connect with what Tsuki has just said for a solid minute, and so the look on your face is the most unconvincing thing ever
The team is shocked and unsure what to believe
I mean, Tsuki looks very serious and even a little smug, but you’re looking like you’ve been slapped in the face
Tsuki picks up on your uncertainty over what he just said
Grabbing your hand, he explains that neither of you had planned to tell anyone for awhile
So finally getting a grip on the situation, you turn to the team and give an easy smile, leaning into Tsukishima’s side to sell his lie
Noya and Tanaka are in an uproar over the apparent dating status of their junior
Suga congratulates the two of you and soon after practice picks up again
Not without pissed off tears from the two second years who had caused this though
Tsuki looks very satisfied from that smh
Yams pulls you to the side and you try to figure out what the heck you should do with him
However, Tsuki already has a plan and he explains it to you on the walk home from volleyball
Whenever the team are around, specifically Noya and Tanaka, you’ll act like a couple
It’s kinda crazy and you’re not sure about it
But you do want to do something for your friend, so you’re decide to go with the unconventional idea
Yams is laughing his ass off watching his two friends fall into the weirdest routine possible
You find yourself wrapping yourself around Tsuki in hugs whenever you spot his teammates
You’ve also started the habit of dramatically calling out to him anytime you see him with someone on the team
Tsuki knows you’re messing with him and so now he’s doing the same, except slightly quieter
Neither of you are super into lovey dovey nicknames, maybe it’s having known each other for so long or you and Tsuki just not being those kinds of people
You both have a ton of embarrassing and high key rude names you call each other instead~
But you start to look forward to hearing him call them out
It had always been you, Tsuki, and Yams before
And while Yamaguchi was still your best friend, things were feeling different lately
Tsuki was starting to spend a lot more time with just you, and there were times when he’d get this soft look in his eyes
You kinda liked it
But it’s not like you were gonna tell him that
In fact, it felt like things were getting a bit out of hand
Was it not wrong how your heart had started skipping a beat when your friend gave you silly head bonks?
Weren’t you using him? You were just supposed to pretend to date him. These feelings blossoming inside your heart we’re ruining your friendship with the person who had always been there for you...
It had been four months since the whole thing had started and you just couldn’t do it anymore
Avoiding Tsuki made you feel like a genuine monster
His look of hurt when you ignored him and left him behind you, choosing to instead look down and keep walking to class
He tried to talk to you during lunch, but when he saw you weren’t going to budge, he backed off with a scowl and concern written all over his face
This lasted for a couple weeks; in which your days consisted of ignoring Tsuki, talking to Yams, and trying to ignore his questions as to why you were ghosting Tsuki
It was frustrating telling Yams that you wanted space, and the dam that had been building up in the time you had been stewing in your feelings, was finally bursting
“I just need to get things back to normal!” You shout, turning your back from your friend, not noticing the second person who had walked up
“I let it get out of hand, it wasn’t supposed to- I wasn’t supposed to feel that way.” You sigh, putting your face into your hands
An awkward pause later and Yam asks hesitantly “What way..?”
“Argghhh! I wasn’t supposed to feel like I was actually dating him! I wasn’t supposed to like him like that!!” You sigh again, pulling yourself up, intending to leave as quickly as possible now that everything was out in the open
“You seriously avoided me for that?” You feel a gentle bop on your head, “Y/n, did you actually think I didn’t feel the same?” The hand on your head was ruffling your hair now
Turning your face upwards, Tsuki’s eyes and slightly blushing face meet yours
Yams laughs lightly, patting his back, and you hear his quiet “finally~” as he retreats to the school building
Turning your attention back to Tsuki, uncertainty leaves you questioning what you’re supposed to do
He notices tho
Taking your hand with a tsk, he gives you a smirk “I can’t believe you’re making me do all the work in this relationship..” and then with unsureness you barely ever saw- added “if you want it to be a relationship.”
A giddiness warming you, one that had been missing in the time you spent away from Tsuki, you replied with an easy smile and leaned into his side enjoying the matching smile that spread across his face
#haikyuu!!#haikyuu x gender neutral reader#haikyuu tsukishima#tsukishima x y/n#tsukishima x reader#tsukishima x you#tsukishima kei#fake dating#haikyuu fluff#I think I’m gonna start adding the read under to most of my writing

we all know that atsumu is the definition of love. that man shows love, while in unconventional ways, in everything he does.
he shows love through setting the ball in the way that best suits his spikers.
he shows love through visiting kita’s farm in his off-season.
he shows love through buying a couple of rounds when he goes out with his old inarizaki teammates.
he shows love by using some of hinata’s sunscreen so that his supply depletes a little.
he shows love by helping the managers with cleaning up the dozens of volleyballs on the court after practice.
he shows love by helping osamu at the restaurant, cleaning tables and washing dishes.
he shows love by keeping hand sanitizer around the apartment where the msby 4 share a space and keeps track of all their masks (they hang from a DIY masks hanger that him and bokuto attempted. it’s not perfect, but sakusa appreciates it).
atsumu is the human embodiment of love. because he was taught to show his love rather than tell it.
and every night, when he and his omi-omi finish their nighttime routine, he shuts off the lights in their room and turns on their alarms for the next morning. atsumu lays on his side, wrapping an arm around kiyoomi’s torso. and kiyoomi plants a soft kiss on atsumu’s forehead.
because after a long day of loving others, atsumu deserves some love as well. and atsumu falls asleep with a slight smile on his lips.
#haikyuu#Miya Atsumu#sakusa kiyoomi#sakuatsu#i'm back again#simping over atsumu#and kiyoomi honestly#i love that atsumu is literally love#in the same way that hinata is sunshine and happiness#and determination lol#but yes#miya atsumu is one of my favorite characters#very chaotic#but i thought i would write how i perceive him#he does things lowkey#he's subtle#but i love him

~ Haikyuu!! Boys baking with reader - Ft. Ushijima, Tendou, Oikawa, Hinata & Nishinoya ~
YO! SO UHHHH... I’M BACK??? I GUESS?? MAYBE??? After a little break I had this in my drafts for a while and realllyyy wanted to complete it since it’s such a cute concept. Honestly at this point my posting frequencies are so sporadic and random pls forgive me lmao.
@deathcab4daddy gave me the inspo to include Ushi and it was so funny coming up with ideas for him, he is no.1 country boi chef
Dude I’m listening to the Mario Kart soundtrack ‘Coconut Mall’ while I continue writing this someone save me. Like u think I’m joking. UR WRONG.
Ushijima:
The most straightforward yet idiotic baker you will ever come across.
Before you even THINK about performing step 1, he will read the entire fucking leaflet like it’s a Shakesperean monologue.
INGREDIENTS INCLUDED.
LIKE SIS I DIDN’T NEED TO KNOW IT CONTAINS MONOCALCIUM PHOSPHATE THANK YOU.
I’m surprised he doesn’t count every single particle in the brownie mix.
You bought him a frilly cupcake-printed apron stating ‘best wife’ not expecting him to actually wear it
But since he’s secretly a big softie and treasures anything you buy he wears it proudly.
His stoic and dignified disposition is a comical contrast to the words printed on the front lmao.
Ushi best wifey bro.
The tight fit of the apron is pretty hot since it outlines every ridge of his pecs and tightly toned torso.
Gotta resist groping your mans while stirring the brownie batter.
tbh he’s more likely to grope you, he can’t resist that a$$.
And let’s face it he’s def an ass/thigh kinda guy.
Can and will try to casually initiate some form of unholy activities by lifting you up onto the kitchen counter, goading you to slowly lick the spoon and locking gazes before pulling you in for a deep, open-mouthed kiss to get a taste of the incomplete creation himself.
Ushi’s lips and brownie batter are a knock-out combo js.
Literally has the most serious face when he’s cracking the eggs into the bowl
The amount of concentration is equivalent to that of when he’s performing a serve at match-point.
HAS to set the temperature to the EXACT degree stated on the box
Everything is done by the book if you do one thing out of place he will pull you up on it lol.
“(Y/N) you were supposed to stir it for 5 minutes, not 7.”
When its done you feed him some and he can’t help but smile its so ADORBALE AHHH.
You end up eating most of it since Ushi doesn’t strike me as much of a chocolate/junk food lover.
STILL A VERY FUN BUT F R U S T R A T I N G EXPERIENCE.
Tendou:
The complete opposite of Ushi
Does everything wrong and the unconventional way.
Absolute disaster but doesn’t even sweat it since Tendou basically thrives in chaos and the disorderly.
To him instructions are purely equivocal, will read them for five seconds then toss them away.
Step aside Gordon Ramsey, Chef Tendou is here.
Despite doing everything the unorthodox way it still comes out amazing.
Like??? how???
Will cheekily place a dollop batter on your nose then lick it off fh3jkeffefds
Or if he’s feelin’ a lil freaky, he’ll swipe it off with his long ass finger and make you suck it clean, smirking at your submission as you coat his finger with your saliva.
oop-
Constantly cracking jokes and shitty food puns, pretending to drop the bowl to make you go into preemptive cardiac arrest before you can swat him with the spatula.
While you’re waiting for the timer to ping, Satori being the schemer he is will use this as an opportunity to pull some fuckery and tease you in any way he can.
u better be praying like bodhisattva TanaNoya rn because he is MERCILESS.
Suggestive comments, the brush of his fingers against your thigh, it’ll leave you A C H I N G in frustration by the end of it.
Unholy activities aside, once your baking session is completed you finish it off by feeding PHAT forkfuls of brownie to each other and giggling like dorks when it gets all over your mouth.
The jackass actually got a fingerful and SMEARED it over your cheek and forehead, drawing a little cross and snickering when the crumbs fall onto your nose.
Tendou was smart to draw a cross bc he gonna need jesus with the ATTACK you launch on him after that, which promptly leads to an all out food war in your kitchen that neither of you want to clean up after ward.
Don’t worry though it’s Tendou, he’ll somehow find a way to make such a mundane activity fun.
Nishinoya:
stirs WAY TOO VIOLENTLY
IT’S LIKE AN ELECTRIC WHISK ON OVERDRIVE.
IT WILL SPLATTER OVER THE COUNTER, CUPBOARDS AND EVERYTHING YOU HOLD DEAR WITHIN A 1 MILE RADIUS.
You best believe he will try and eat some of the batter and you have to swat the spoon away from his mouth since he has NO REGARD FOR THE FACT HE COULD GET SALMONELLA.
Plus you know what Noya’s like once he starts eating something the whole thing will be gone in a matter of milliseconds.
He somehow managed to get Baking powder EVERYWHERE and even gave him self a little moustache with it.
The white substance kinda looked like something else but you didn’t really wanna say lmaooo.
could explain why he has so much energy all the time oK ILL STOP-
While you’re putting the mix on the tray he is SO extra and will do fancy lil swirls and over extend his arm like a swan to gracefully spread the batter
until he nearly fucking knocks it over.
During processing time since he is so excitable and impatient you best believe he’s gonna suggest a game of ping pong or something because my guy can well and truly never sit still.
ping pong match with the spatulas, kitchen island and a hard boiled egg.
Pls be careful he will rolling thunder that egg and pimp slap it so hard with the spatula it’ll damn near give you a concussion, not intentionally, but like protect your noggin. Wear a helmet.
For the remaining 5 minutes of baking time y’all just sit like kids in front of the oven and watching it rise like starved hyena’s observing it’s pray before demolishing it into sad particles of cocoa.
And lemme tell u, once the timer pings, that baking tray is free real estate for Noya. Half of your creation will be devoured before you can even put it on a plate and marvel at your handiwork.
He kicked your ass at spatula ping pong btw I’m sorry sweaty but short kings stay winning.
Oikawa:
Such a dramatic bitch like he got the whole she-bang going on.
Strapped with a pink apron, a whisk at his side and standing proudly with both hands on his hips.He is prepared like a greek gladiator going into battle.
You better believe he gonna make some snarky remarks and tease your method of doing things.
“Ah-ah-ahhh (Y/N)-chan you’re doing it all wrong, let me show you how a PRO does it.”
Proceeds to drop entire bowl on his foot and yelp like a little girl in pain.
Well and truly embarrassed with himself, you put a band-aid on his toe and he piped down after that.
Shattered big toe and mixing bowl aside, actually a really good baker??
He is a PRO at decorating, y’all decided on cupcakes since its literally his forte to make them look aesthetic and pretty.
You almost don’t wanna eat them from how good they look.
jk almost
You take it in turns breaking bits off and placing pieces into each others mouth with a loud “aaaaaahhh!”
Places a piece in your mouth, leans forward and locks lips with you in a soft, passionate kiss before pulling away and uttering the words “It tastes even better coming from your mouth ;)”
hnnnNNGGGGGGggGg.
You both whine and bicker over who cleans up after.
“You cleaaannnnn!”
“no Toru YOU clean!”
“but I made the cupcakes look pretty :(”
“not as pretty as you <3″
He did the cleaning after that.
Like just stroke his ego with some compliments and he’s whipped with a smug grin on his face for the next 30 minutes.
You decide to save the rest and bring them to his next practise.
Literally on the verge of tears when he sees you beaming and holding the platter of treats, Kiyotani mauls half of them in a matter of seconds to which Oiks gets salty over LMAO.
Hinata:
So excited oh my god he’s so precious please protect him I will CRY-
Has a little sunflower apron on and JBJKNDDDKDW IM SMILING JUST IMAGINING HIM FIDGETING IN EXCITEMENT OVER THE THOUGHT OF BAKING COOKIES.
Yes you decided on cookies bc he goes rabid for some choc chip biccies.
You have to guide him v carefully because of how easily confused and clumsy he is.
Cannot for the life of him crack the eggs without getting a quarter of the shell in the bowl so you have to do it instead.
Has a surprising amount of strength and forearm power bc holy shit boy can stir FAST.
Hums a little tune while he does it and bobs up and down with a wide grin on his face it’s so adorable, he has such a gentle singing voice I can’t-
Attempts different shapes with the batter when pouring it onto the tray but fails pretty miserably lol.
he tried ok???
Once they’re done he takes the tray out of the oven and since it was heavy, subconsciously propped it with his knee and nearly dropped the entire tray from the pain. (I’ve actually done this before when making chicken nuggets I do not advise being that brain dead)
Had to put some burn cream on the bbies knee :’((
When you decided to dig in, he handed you a cookie that looked like a crooked circle and said he tried to make that one a heart and insisted he feed it to you.
Blushed VERY hard at the moment of silence and intense eye contact while he fed it to you.
Nearly short circuited when his fingers brushed against your lips.
Moe moe x100000000000000000000000000000
You offer to do the cleaning after because he hurt himself and you didn’t wanna make him do any work, but he still offered to wipe the surfaces for you bc he’s an angel <333
literally just wanna marry him.

First Year Daddies (+ Kyoutani!)
I’m trying to spread out my requests—I have a whole bunch of Kuroo ones that I swear he is my most requested person. So let’s take a break from our beloved rooster and get some daddies up in this! That being said, this will kinda be a part 2 to Karasuno as dads, with the addition of our beloved Mad Dog. @dreamyjaems you know what’s up.
Kageyama;
Alright, let’s redeem Kags cause I did him dirty last time.
It took him sometime to get used to being a parent, but when he finally got it down, he loved every second of it.
Your daughter, now five years old, loves daddy just as much as he loves her.
Now that you’d gone back to work and the two of you had some semblance of a schedule, Kageyama was 100% in charge of childcare while you worked in the morning.
Lucky break for the two of you that Kags didn’t start practice until the afternoon, giving him time to take your little girl to kindergarten with you picking her up.
It was the same routine every morning—mommy goes to work and daddy makes pancakes while putting on Disney movies.
Always a short stack and he made sure to cut it up just the way his little girl liked it—into 16 pieces. Yes, 16. No more, no less.
Your daughter was a lucky little bugger, getting her fathers thick, silky hair. By this age, it’s incredibly long and Kags always brushes it and does it nicely before taking her to school, then off to work he goes.
His locksreen is definitely a picture of him and his daughter. It gets him through the day.
After picking up your child from school, you help her with homework since Kags won’t be home until later.
Sometimes, it really shocks you just how lucky the two of you got for having such a well behaved kid—super low maintenance, doesn’t really cause trouble. That is, until she starts missing her dad.
Yes, she is a hardcore daddy’s girl 💀
Usually, it’s around dinner time that she gets fussy because Kageyama will be waking through the door any minute and that minute canNOT pass soon enough. She’s more like you than you think.
“Hi sweetie,” you call out while you know for a fact he’s scooping up his little bean in his arms before coming to give you a kiss. Routine was nice that way.
The three of you go about your evening as per usual—having dinner together, you giving your little one a bath and Kageyama reading her to bed so that the two of you can cuddle up on the couch before turning in for the evening.
After he finishes reading, he joins you for your quiet time, seeing that you’re watching a movie and drinking a glass of wine. “I wanted to talk to you about...something.” He says stiffly. You quirk a brow at him after hitting pause, patiently waiting for him to continue. “How...how would you feel about having another one?”
“Another glass of wine? Hell yeah.”
“[name], no. Another kid.” Oh. Well, this is a shocking turn of events. Kageyama, the barely legal adult that initially had no idea whether or not was ready to be a father, wanted another child.
“Are you sure, Tobio?” Was all you responded with.
“Obviously, since I’m asking you,” there’s a twinge in his voice that you aren’t sure you’ve heard before. Not quite begging, per se. perhaps imploring was a better word for it? “I love our family and I just want it to keep growing.”
This was such a far cry from the man that Kageyama Tobio was six years ago when you first found out you were pregnant, and you would be lying if you said that his admission didn’t turn you on in the slightest.
“Well we’ve got some work to do then, buddy.”
Hinata;
Hinata Shoyo finally got his wish. With his son, now 10, and daughter, now 8, your youngest daughter was nearing her terrible twos.
There was nothing more in the world that your newest baby loved more than daddy.
It was actually kind of irritating, actually, because if Shoyo wasn’t home, she would cry and throw temper tantrums until your husband walked through the door.
Shit, it even irritated your other two kids who, in order to avoid it all, would usually be at their friend’s houses doing homework and hanging out until they knew their dad would be home.
If only you were able to do the same.
The second that Sho walked through the door, every sound in the Hinata household ceases, as if your toddler wasn’t just screaming her lungs out moments ago.
“Hi, princess! Did you miss daddy today? I know I missed you a whole bunch!”
On god, he is such a good dad it hurts. He’s gotten even better since the addition of the youngest.
“Hi sweetheart,” you greet with a quick peck onto his lips. His daughter, and yes very specifically the almost two-year-old is his daughter, grunts in discomfort despite being held by dad. She doesn’t like the fact that you took dad’s attention away for a second. “Oh, quiet you.” You grumble at her.
“[name]! Be nice to angel!” You roll your eyes at him instead. As if you haven’t raised your last two kids, who were now walking in the door. “Come on, pumpkin, let’s go get some food in our bellies!”
Hinata places her in her high chair, obnoxiously making little airplane noises as he feeds her. Spoiled little brat.
“Mom,” your son starts cautiously, looking back and forth between his father and baby sister. “Was dad always like this?” He asks, referring to the overly enthusiastic train noises your husband was making.
“No, honey.”
“Okay, just making sure he hasn’t been a dork our entire lives.”
“Oh, that? Yeah.”
Tsukishima;
It needs to be reiterated, you felt, that Tsukki is an amazing father.
Your oldest and Kei’s step-daughter, now 12, and your youngest daughter, now 7, would vehemently agree.
They never did actually grow out of the habit of calling him Tsukki, as opposed to dad. Though when speaking to other people, they both referred to him as their father.
It was quite endearing, actually. Your family was happy with the way things were, even if they were slightly unconventional.
Sunday mornings were family days—an adamant rule in the Tsukishima household. Kei would be in charge of making breakfast while you and the girls blasted some upbeat music while tidying up your rooms.
While Kei does not find Kesha and Lizzo to be “the classics” as you so put it while you cleaned, he did find it amusing to see all three Tsukishima women dancing and singing while cleaning.
Lowkey, it warmed his heart to know these were the three women of his life.
Kei is still the same protective dad he was even before having his own child—it only got worse when your oldest started showing an interest in the opposite gender.
Ya know how he wasn’t afraid to fight a toddler for his little girl? He’s definitely not afraid to fight some middle school punk.
Especially when your oldest comes home bawling her eyes out because she had decided to confess to the boy she liked and he had said he didn’t return feelings.
No matter how much you tried to console her, nothing you said seemed to work. It was dad’s turn.
Tsukki sits her down, his face as serious as ever, before adjusting his glasses to look at his step-daughter clearly. “Don’t tell mom that I said this, but boys ain’t shit.” 💀💀💀
“Ooooh, Tsukki said a bad word.” She joked in between her now calming tears.
“It’s true, though. Now come on, chin up. Princesses can’t have their heads down, their crowns will fall off.”
Yamaguchi;
Despite the years of torture and struggle that was raising your twin hellions, Tadashi was kind of feeling a little empty now that the boys had grown into being more independent.
They were now seven-years-old, in sports, getting good grades—it’s like they were replaced with a different set of twins.
However, this also grants Tadashi the chance to actually step in and be a father, rather than letting those two run him ragged all day.
I see Yamaguchi being a slightly more strict parent, but loving nonetheless. Because the twins have always sort have been troublemakers, he’s strict on making sure the boys are home in time for dinner and that their schoolwork is done.
If they aren’t 💀💀💀
Honestly, your guys’ life though is just all around peaceful and a small part of you is longing for chaos.
So before the two of you head to sleep for the evening, your both just chilling in bed, maybe reading a book. Ya know, like 90s sitcom style.
“Hey Tadashi, can I ask you something?” That was never a good sign in his book, but he looks at you expectantly, waiting for you to proceed. “How would you feel if we had another kid?”
“Wait, are you pregnant?” You certainly didn’t miss the panic that filled his eyes. Oh. There’s your answer.
“No...I just...kinda miss holding a baby, ya know? Our boys are seven now, they don’t want mom anywhere near them and they think my hugs and kisses are gross.”
Ngl, it kinda hurts him to hear that because he knows it hurts you. All he wants to do his make you feel better.
“I mean, I’m not opposed I’m just—“
“Scared the next one is gonna turn out the same way?” He laughs at the fact that you know him so well. “Don’t get me wrong, I am too. But in the end, we raised them so well. I don’t think we’ll have anything to worry about.”
Kyoutani;
The two of you never ceased to surprise anyone.
At first, it started with the two of you dating in your third years of high school, all the way through college (which, it shocked some that he in enrolled in university at all), to bringing your three-year-old son to the class of 2014 reunion.
Where did people even begin? The fact that you two had been dating for ten years or the fact that the two of you were parents?
It bothered you when people made assumptions about Kentarou.
Yes, he was cold and brash and a complete pain in your ass, but he was a damn good life partner and father.
Kyoutani wasn’t satisfied with anything if he wasn’t giving it his all—that includes his relationship with you and your guys’ son.
While he isn’t necessarily the most affectionate person, he always made sure his little family had everything they needed.
Yahaba is the first one to approach the three of you, surprised to see Kentarou holding his little one. “Holy shit, I never thought I’d see the day.”
“Language.” Your boyfriend bites out. A small laugh escapes your lips as you pat him on the back in reassurance as you give Yahaba a hug.
“Nice to see you too, Shigeru.” The former setter looks between the two of you, then looks at your son.
“It’s so scary to see your mini-me with his eyes.”
“Don’t be rude.” You chide him calmly, while Kyoutani feels his blood boil slightly. That sounded like an insult to him. Wordlessly, he hands over your son before squaring up with his former teammate. “Honey, please don’t start a fight.”
You were one of the few people to calm him down; a given considering your decade together.
Backing down, Kentarou retreats to your side, securing an arm around his waist and placing a chaste kiss in his sons hair. Knowing his mannerisms, you knew that was an apology to his child for losing his cool for a minute.
“Holy shit.” Yahaba repeats, stunned by the display of affection
“Language!” Your boyfriend snarls again through clenched teeth, making you laugh again. The three of you were far from perfect, but you had everything you needed.

Unconventional (Atsumu-centric)
synopsis: It’s hard to love someone for his faults when his faults are the form of his boyfriend and his adultery.
note: this is out of order. this is the middle of the story. I haven’t written the first part or the end but I have them fairly mapped out. This is poly atsuhina but this is atsumu centric. keep an eye out for part one and part three which I will probably post at the same time. also, some of these scenes are so so pretty to me so watch out because I’m going to draw and post some of these scenes.
containing: 2.2k, she her pronouns for reader, implied smut
ACT 2
Scene 1 - INT. THERAPIST OFFICE
Basic therapist office. Two couches across from each other. A coffee table sits in between them. There is only one cup of coffee on the table. We see the backs of three people on one couch: one woman sits to the far left. Two men sit to the far right. One is looking at her. In the space between them, we can see the couch across from them with a therapist, clipboard in her lap.
THERAPIST: These sessions are meant to help you, (y/n). They want to work things out with you, why don’t you want to?
We see the woman. She is ISOLATED from everyone else. She is curled up on the couch, shoes off, picking at her toenails. She gives a half assed shrug.
(Y/N): I just can’t find it in me to care anymore.
SHOYO sits on the same couch as her but at the opposite end. He is WORRIED. ATSUMU sits next to him, hands intertwined, and he WATCHES her. Her face is looking at the ground, hair covering her face. She seems borderline CATATONIC.
SHOYO: (quietly) You said you still loved me.
(Y/N): (still not looking up) And I do. But it just hurts and I’m tired of stressing and caring.
ATSUMU: (He is starting to get annoyed) So, what? Yer fucking solution is to just shut down? Cry?
(Y/N): (She looks up and she is angry.) Fuck you Miya! You think I don’t know you’ve been laughing at me this whole goddamn time-
ATSUMU: (He angles his whole body to face her.) When have I fucking laughed? Sho and I have been nothing but patient this past year and you’ve been nothing but a fucking bitch-
THERAPIST: Atsumu, (y/n), please don’t yell in my office-
SHOYO: Atsumu, please she just needs time she’s hurt-
(Y/N): Fuck you Atsumu and fuck this. I’m tired of you acting like I’m at fault when you’re the one who Hinata-
(SHOYO: (offscreen) Shoyo, (y/n) please call me Sho-)
(Y/N): Just shut up Shoyo haven’t you done enough-
ATSUMU: oh fuck off, so what he cheated? He’s here trying to make things right and you’re just-
(Y/N) stands up. She’s putting her shoes on. She ignores ATSUMU staring at her. She ignores SHOYO’s pleas for her to stay and talk it out. The camera follows as she leaves the room, we watch SHOYO chase after her, desperately grabbing onto her sweater. He is CRYING. She stops, turns, and puts a hand on his face. Her mouth moves but we cannot hear her and we
CUT TO
Scene 2 - EXT: CHERRY BLOSSOM STREET
It is a street, cobblestones, lined with cherry blossoms. There is no music. It is raw and romantic and heartbreaking. She sits in the middle of the empty street. Her back is to the camera. The cherry blossoms silently fall. A man with blonde hair and an undercut join her. He crouches. He has on a hat and sunglasses. And we CUT CLOSER, still facing their backs.
ATSUMU: I got you coffee.
He holds it out to her. She does not turn to acknowledge him or accept it.
ATSUMU: C’mon doll. Take the coffee.
She silently holds out her hand and he puts the cup of coffee in it.
ATSUMU: Remember when I first found you here? Shoyo was scared shitless that day. He came home, found the Dear John letter to me instead of him, a duffel, and a buncha yer clothes gone. He was terrified (Y/n). He loves you, you know that right?
(Y/N): (quietly) I don’t think I can really love him again Miya. It hurts so much.
ATSUMU: This is about him cheating, huh doll?
(Y/N): Yes and no.
ATSUMU: Oh? Don’t worry. You weren’t the side piece. I was. And truthfully, I was jealous of ya. Wanted to be the one kissin’ him and holdin’ his hand in public so bad.
(Y/N): It wasn’t teasing when you were talking about Hinata, was it?
ATSUMU: What’re ya talkin’ about?
(Y/N): A year and a half ago. Whenever you ran into me you’d have this smug look on your face when you’d help Hinata stretch. When you’d tell me whatever you and Hinata were supposedly up to during practice.
ATSUMU: (Y/N) we never fucked durin’ practice. Honest.
He brushes some hair behind her ear. She looks at him.
(Y/N): I’ve waited six years for Shoyo to take me on a date here. He promised me back in high school.
ATSUMU: (frowning) What’re you sayin’?
(Y/N): Remember when we first started working this out? And he’d just bail on every date for me for you?
ATSUMU: (Y/n) he didn’t-
(Y/N): He will always choose you Atsumu. Don’t ever doubt that.
She starts to look away. Her hair falls in her face again. ATSUMU cups her face and turns it to him. He puts his forehead against hers. It is intimate and raw.
ATSUMU: Then let’s call this a date. Screw Sho’s promise, I’ll make ya a promise.
His eyes flick to her lips. She is still staring at him.
ATSUMU: If Sho ever starts slippin’ showin ya love-
He angles her head to kiss her forehead, trailing his nose down her face back to her lips as he speaks--
ATSUMU: Count on me to pick up the slack. Yer important to Sho and he loves ya, so I’ll do whatever it takes to keep you around, yeah?
He kisses her once. Then again. And again. He starts peppering her face with kisses before his hands go to her neck, when she starts laughing.
ATSUMU: Oh? Yer ticklish? Why’d ya never tell me, huh?
(Y/N): (in between laughs) Stop that Atsumu!
ATSUMU stops. He stands up and pulls her with him, leading her back toward the city.
ATSUMU: Every date Sho’s missed, let me pick up the slack there too, yeah?
CUT TO
Scene 3--Night Food Stall Market
I’ve been to a place like this once in Taiwan. It’s held in the middle of outdoor shopping centers that should be malls. The buildings are huge, you can mistake them for corporate office buildings, high rise hotels even, but on closer inspection you see clothes and mannequins in the windows. Nike. Reebok. Forever 21. Apple. They’re all there. It is busy. The spacious walkways between these buildings are crammed with lines of food stalls. There’s steam, food, and many people shouting out their foods. Some even have fish tanks to advertise how fresh their food is. Vendors wear anything from yukatas, uniforms, and street clothes. There are hardly any spaces to sit. It is bright colored and friendly. It makes you feel like a teenager, watching it all happen.
ATSUMU has his arm around (Y/N). He is guiding her through the night market. ATSUMU still wears a hat, no sunglasses.
ATSUMU: This beats moping all afternoon in the cherry blossom grove, huh doll?
(Y/N): (looking around, interested) It’s… interesting.
ATSUMU: (whining) Come oooooon doll! Just say good ol’ Tsumu picked out the best spot for a date!
(Y/N): (teasing) How many other girls have you been here with Miya?
ATSUMU: (horrified) Doll, I swear yer the only one-
(Y/N): (small smile) I’m teasing Miya.
ATSUMU: (surprised) Oh yeah? (teasing her back) Why don't you tease me with a little lap dance little one?
(Y/N): (blushing) We are in public Atsumu! (a swat to his chest)
ATSUMU looks up and starts sniffing the air. He is looking around, spots a vendor and walks over. It is a stall serving onigiri, we see OSAMU MIYA serving people onigiri in rapid succession.
ATSUMU: (yelling) ‘Samu! Cash me in some free onigiri!
OSAMU: (looking over) Price is doubled for family.
ATSUMU makes his way over dragging (Y/N) with him.
ATSUMU: (pleading) Come ooooon ‘Samu! For (y/n)? I’m taking her on a date ‘Samu.
ATSUMU looks at OSAMU with puppy dog eyes. OSAMU sighs and gives two rice balls on a tray to ATSUMU.
OSAMU: (irritated) Now will both of ya bug off?
ATSUMU: (eating, and handing one to (y/n)) ‘Anks ‘Amu!
ATSUMU leads her to a bench, still by the crowd, as she finishes eating her rice ball. They are people watching. ATSUMU is stealing glances at her.
ATSUMU: (staring at the crowd) Ya didn’t have a bag with ya this time. Why?
(Y/N): (quietly) I don’t know.
ATSUMU: Are ya gonna leave us doll?
(Y/N): (exhaling) it’s not even really you anymore, ‘Tsumu. It’s Hinata. It’s just hard. It hurts.
ATSUMU: Why don’t ya wanna talk to him?
(Y/N): It just hurts ‘Tsumu.
They sit in silence for a bit before ATSUMU pulls her up and walks around with her, leading through alleys, dancing with her to music drifting out from bars and shops. She is laughing and happy. They are relaxed, taking their time as ATSUMU leads them somewhere. He knows where he is going.
Eventually they come to a building, an apartment complex. ATSUMU has her face in his hands, nose to nose, he looks at her with quiet longing.
ATSUMU: (whispering) I’ve had you for myself all day princess. Can I have ya for the night too?
(Y/N): Miya-
ATSUMU: Do you want this?
(Y/N): (hesitating) Yes, I do.
ATSUMU starts kissing her. We watch him push his back against the door, holding it open for the both of them before he goes into the elevator, lifting her up so she can wrap her legs around his waist.
CUT TO
Scene 4--Atsumu’s Apartment
(Y/N) is laying on top of ATSUMU’s chest. The lights are off and the tv is the only thing giving light. ATSUMU is idly tracing shapes down her back. He turns his head to talk to her.
ATSUMU: (quietly) You’ll go to therapy and talk to Sho tomorrow right?
(Y/N): Promise you’ll be there?
ATSUMU: Swear on it doll.
ATSUMU kisses her forehead.
ATSUMU: Good night princess.
CUT TO
Scene 1--INT THERAPIST OFFICE
It’s the same set up. Two couches and a coffee table in between. Still one cup of coffee on the table. It’s different this time. (Y/N) sits at one side of the couch, ATSUMU sits in the middle, SHOYO on the other side of ATSUMU.
THERAPIST: And what made you decide to take a chance on Atsumu?
(Y/N): He’s never hurt me and I don’t think he ever would.
THERAPIST: And Shoyo?
(Y/N) lets out an exhale. She curls her hands in her lap inwards. ATSUMU rubs his thumb over one of the hands.
(Y/N): Yeah. I’ll talk to Shoyo.
