#I WILL NO LONGER ASSOCIATE ANY OTHER KAOMOJI TO HIM BUT THAT

[nako-doodles]

Jin's •ᴗ• literally has my heart

jin is the personification of ●ᴗ● ok 

[imagine-that-haikyuu]

Do you do general headcanons? Because I'd like to propose The Office!au shenanigans ft. your choice of volleyball idiots from each team. In return you shall receive my eternal gratitude and several excited kaomojis. Knock yourself out I believe in youuu

even though these aren’t done at all, i decided to post what i have and make this a WIP post. so whenever i get more ideas for it, i’ll edit it and reblog it so you’ll know!

i don’t know exactly how i would write the characters doing shenanigans from the office without me just like… switching out character names in the script from the show, so i stuck with casting. and if anyone likes this enough to use for any edits or incorrect quotes or something, feel free go along with it and tag me in it too so i can see it!

things to note:

the haikyuu!! characters i chose to correspond with characters in the office are based on likeness in personality as well as some fun tidbits we know about characters from both series

these choices don’t necessarily reflect ships i have, even if that relationship was a central part of the office’s plot or a character’s story (mostly jim and pam, but also dwight and angela)

anyone can totally give me suggestions for characters i haven’t assigned yet

if you like what i do and want to show your support, consider supporting me on ko-fi!

Michael – Bokuto. I’ll get this out of the way: Bokuto is similar in some ways, but he’s not a bumbling fool like Michael. He’s just the closest to Michael personality-wise (even though Bokuto feels a lot more like Andy Dwyer from Parks and Recreation to me). He was the hardest to cast for me after Dwight, maybe? Michael Scott is not a good manager, and an idiot through-and-through, but when it comes to sales, it’s difficult to for the potential client to not make a deal with him because he’s so damn good at sales. I feel like this is very similar to Bokuto.

Jim – The prankster and the romantic meshed into one character. It was an obvious toss-up between Kuroo and Futakuchi, but I went with Kuroo on this because we’ve seen Kuroo realize when he’s crossed a line and apologize for it, which we see from Jim too. I haven’t seen this from Futakuchi, not that there have been a lot of chances for him to anyway.

Pam – A really tough choice between Suga and Yachi, but I’m going to go with Suga on this one. It was pretty close because both of them have a mostly equal blend of Pam’s qualities (I explain why I could have chosen Yachi below). Her overall arc starts with the fact that she’s settling for less than what she wants in most aspects of her life, until a little bit later when we she decides that she’s going to start getting what she wants. We see something very similar with Suga until the practice match against the Neighborhood Association and then again during the Golden Week training camp (the conversation with Ukai). That and Pam becomes incredibly sassy once she and Jim finally start dating and even sassier when she’s promoted. There’s some verbal savagery that Suga shares with Pam. Also, Pam plays volleyball and is very good at it (she can even jump serve!!!!). Suga can’t jump serve, but he does play (which Yachi does not).

Yachi’s character arc is also similar to Pam’s. The tension between her and her mother and her own lack of confidence is not unlike Pam. But she’s able to find her footing soon enough when she stops convincing herself that not being good enough yet isn’t a reason to not try something at all. And while I’d like to think that having to put up with the current second- and -first-years for a little bit longer will give Yachi a bit of the tough skin and bite we get from Pam later in the series, it’s not really canon. Also Pam is an artist and we know Yachi has similar skills!

But yeah, Suga was my pick for Pam in the end.

Dwight – Kageyama but Dwight is an Actual Asshole most of the time (he has his moment) and Kageyama isn’t. It’s mostly just because the two of them can be very dense. Also Dwight’s constant slinging of “idiot” at mostly Jim is like the predecessor for Kags’ insistence of calling Hinata a dumbass.

Andy – I haven’t chosen who yet, I kind of feel bad about whoever I do choose for Andy because his character arc finished up so poorly. I think Andy was one of the best characters on the show until his family lost their money, he went boating for months because of it, and came back an asshole.

So my choice for Andy would be him post-anger management to the above.

Erin –

Darryl -

Angela –

Oscar – Yaku screams Oscar to me. There’s something very “only sane one in the room” and “I’m smarter than you” about Yaku that’s reminiscent of Oscar--though the latter is much less pronounced in our dear libero.

Kevin –

Phyllis – a perfect mix of Asahi and Yamaguchi. She’s mostly very gentle and matronly, but there are so many moments when she’ll say or do something seemingly out-of-character or even very much in-character but just entirely unexpected (every single time she sasses or snubs someone) that scream Yamaguchi especially to me.

Stanley – 

Meredith –

Creed – Coach Nekomata. If you expected anyone other than Turnt Grandpa, I don’t know what you were thinking.

Kelly – (I don’t know who yet, but do not say Oikawa. I’m not going to reduce him like that).

Ryan –
