Chapter Thirty-Nine: Moonrise

Summary: Shōyō Hinata loves volleyball! There is no doubt that all he really thinks about is volleyball. His sister, however, isn’t the same way. Sakura is ready to start her first year of high school at Karasuno with her twin brother and doesn’t really want to do anything, unlike Shōyō. Though she can’t help it when she gets dragged into the antics of the volleyball club.

A/n: Ah another chapter, how lovely.

“OH, MAN! OH, MAN! TAKING OFF IN the middle of the night is pretty exciting!” Shōyō was bouncing on the balls of his feet, really one of the only ones really awake at this time of the morning. It was quite early, the sun hadn’t even breached through the horizon yet. Though the team weren’t awake for practice, they were awake to climb onto a bus and make their journey to Tokyo.

Tanaka chuckled at his underclassmen, “Well, you guys were late last time.” He nostalgically remembered how his sister had to be the one to drive the troublesome duo to their camp. Ah, fun times.

“Being an idiot must be nice.” Tsukishima scoffed, “You can even sleep on a bus.”

The two other boys shouted at him, “What’d you say?!”

Sakura cringed, “don’t yell, it’s too early for this.”

The team plus Sakura and the managers all gathered around the bus. Some were tired this early in the morning, but almost all of them were excited. Yet another training camp to go to! The day was finally here that they would get to see some other strong schools from Tokyo! “We’ll be arriving at our destination early in the morning once again.” Takeda said, drawing all of their attention, “Ukai-kun and I will take turns driving.”

Said coach yawned, “Sorry if I nod off.”

Everyone bowed to him with a slight shout, “Thank you!”

Their advisor jumped, “It’s the middle of the night, so not so loud.”

“Oh, sorry… Habit,” Daichi chuckled in apology.

“Do you guys have everything?” Takeda said to them all, “Make sure you double-check.”

Yamaguchi turned to Shōyō by his side, “It’ll go quickly if you fall asleep.”

“I wonder if I can…” the ball of sunshine pursed his lips.

Sakura scoffed lightly under her breath, “you most certainly will.” She knew her brother could sleep anywhere at any time. A bus ride was not going to be an issue for him. Though besides her she didn’t notice the lazy stare that a blond giant was pointing at her.

Ever since they had all gathered together, Tsukishima was surveying the distance that was put between the Hinata siblings. Now that Sakura was actually here, he could see just how she was keeping herself separate from her brother. Along with that Shōyō was also doing what he could to gain her attention every once in a while. Even so, Shōyō was a bit quieter, upset with his sister’s ignorance. It was a strange sight, Tsukishima never thought he’d see the day when the twins weren’t attached at the hip. He saw that ever since they had rode up to the school together on their bikes the twins hadn’t said much to each other. Sakura kept herself besides Yachi or Yamaguchi. Meanwhile, Shōyō sends her puppy-dog eyes every once in a while and distracts himself by talking with Nishinoya and Tanaka.

Then again for a moment Tsukishima could feel himself… empathizing with Sakura. How pathetic, he thought. Him empathizing with Hinata Sakura? That’s baffling! Though he tried to push that thought away, as he should be focusing on how he was going to ignore the others to sleep a bit on the ride to the camp.

Endo yawned loudly, “why do we have to get up at this ungodly hour.”

Asahi laughed at the tired look on his friend's face, “I’m sorry you have to suffer through being awake.”

“Some of us need our beauty sleep, you know.” He not so subtly pointed at Nishinoya and Tanaka, “Some more than others.”

“OI!!” It appeared that the two heard them. Though Endo probably wanted them to. Even if it was early in the morning, he still loved riling up his friends. He just shared a laugh with Asahi before climbing into the bus. Endo was more than ready to sit next to his best friend and use Asahi’s shoulder for a nap.

So the team all piled into the bus. Some were fighting over who would sit next to who and others more than ready to get comfy in their seats for the ride over. Just as Sakura was about to follow behind Yachi when her brother stopped her.

“Imouto, do you want to sit with me?” Shōyō shyly asked as he walked up to his sister.

The girl blinked at him for a moment. She pursed his lips at him and shook her head lightly, “I said I’d sit with Yachi, sorry.”

Shōyō’s expression dropped, “oh.”

So Sakura left behind her dejected brother and climbed onto the bus. She was a bit annoyed with herself for turning him down, even after they had had distance between them for a while now, she still thought it would be a good idea to keep it up. 

Yachi noticed the expression on Sakura’s face and asked, “are you okay?”

“I’m fine,” Sakura said, getting comfortable in her seat at the window. 

“Shōyō-kun definitely seems down,” Yachi cooed, eyeing the boy as he sulked a little bit in his seat beside Kageyama. She didn’t like to see anyone upset, especially her friends. She turned to look at Sakura who pursed her lips.

“Yeah, he’ll just have to get used to it.” Her friend gave her a look. One that had Sakura sighing heavily. “I know now that I have to move forward with my plan, and Shōyō is just going to have to get used to it, since it’s my choice.” It lifted some sort of weight off of her after coming to that conclusion. She was going to use this camp as a way to make it clear to Shōyō exactly what she wanted and how she felt. Sakura didn’t want him to misunderstand any longer like he did that first time she tried to tell him. She finally came up with a good plan, in her opinion, and knew what to say this time around to make it crystal clear to him how she’s felt and how she wants to make things right.

Yachi nodded her head, “Just make sure you talk with him about it. You wouldn’t want him to think that he did something wrong…” She then paused and anxiously waved her hands, “He didn’t do anything wrong right!?”

“No. Not intentionally, at least.” Sakura nodded her head, “I will talk to him when we’ve settled in.”

---

The bus ride wasn’t as tense as Sakura thought that it would be. After not accepting the offer to sit with her brother, she felt like it would fill her with some sort of guilt. Though after the last few days of not really talking with him she had grown to not feel guilty about not being around him all the time. After getting the support that she needed from her friends and talking through everything with them, she knew now not to base her emotions off of what Shōyō was feeling. 

Once the team arrived, there were a few boys from the Nekoma team who had come to greet them and show them where to go. Sakura was happy to say hi to Kenma when he came over to them with Kuroo and Nobuyuki. Though she let out a sigh to see that Yua hadn’t tagged along to greet them. She still wasn’t sure if she wanted to say that she was friends with the eager girl. They had shared a few texts here and there, but Sakura hadn’t taken up on any of Yua’s offers to hang out.

“Hey, hey! Where’s the Skytree?” Shōyō exclaimed as soon as he jumped off the bus.

Kenma tilted his head in confusion, “Huh? The Skytree?”

“Oh! Is that the Tokyo Towers?!” Shōyō jumped as he pointed to a random tower in the distance.

“Huh?” The pudding-headed boy blinked, “That’s… Just a normal transmission tower.”

“What the hell?” Kuroo asked, “Are there no transmission towers in Miyagi? Pretty sure I’ve heard that conversation before.”

Daichi’s eyebrow twitched, “The transmission towers in Tokyo all look like the Tokyo Tower to us country folk!”

“That’s a rash thing to say.” Suga said, “Also, we’re in Saitama.”

Shōyō asked Kenma, “So we’re gonna be at a different school this time?”

“Apparently, the summer training camp is always in Shinzen. It’s nice and cool here…” Kenma then slapped his arm to kill an annoying bug, “But lots of bugs around.”

“Hinata!” Nekoma’s half-Russian giant then appeared, running down the stairs. “Did you grow any taller?!”

Kenma deadpanned, “Lev, shut up.”

“That’s a pretty rude thing to say.” Shōyō gaped, “Like I could grow in two weeks!”

Lev just smugly smirked down at him, “I grew two millimeters.” Shōyō then went into shock at that information. Yachi laughed from beside Sakura who was just shaking her head at them.

The boys all went into the gym, getting themselves ready for their first day of some grueling training camp. As soon as Sakura had stepped into the gym, Yua had seemingly made a beeline for her. Through her excited babbling, the older girl was expressing how happy she was to see her friend again and where they would be sleeping during the camp. It took Yaku nearly dragging her back to their game that Sakura was allowed a moment to breathe. Which meant that she was able to go off with Yachi and Kiyoko and help with anything that they needed.

“All right!” Ukai said to the team, “We’re gonna switch out members constantly this time around, so be prepared.”

“Right!”

So their first game of the camp was against Fukurōdani. One of the most formidable teams here at the camp, it certainly was going to be a challenge to go up against them. Some of the crows were more than determined to see how they were going to fair against their opponents. After all, it was time to show off just how much they had improved.

“Let’s try for no penalties!” Bokuto exclaimed to his teammates.

The game began with Fukurōdani serving to Karasuno. Though there was something just slightly off… When Kageyama tossed the ball to Shōyō, it missed.

Sakura blinked, “Missed?” Sure, she’s seen them miss some spikes or tosses from time to time, but this one was one of the most horrendous misses that she's seen from them. The ball was just slightly short. Though thanks to Shoyo’s quick reflexes he was able to save the ball before it could hit the ground. They’re both so… different now, Sakura thought to herself.

The game continued on with each of the boys having some sort of slight imbalance. Asahi’s spikes were powerful, but not as accurate as they should be. Their synchronized attack most certainly still needed work. Their blocks could be a bit more secure, and obviously the freak duo was having some issues as well. So the boys were completely out of sync with each other. All that practice that they had put in individually wasn’t meshing well as a team just about yet. There was yet another learning curve that they would have to get through now.

“Endo,” Ukai called, making the boy jump just slightly at the shout, “you’re getting subbed in.”

Endo pointed at his own chest, “me? I’m a sub? Wh-what about Suga or Yamaguchi?” It seemed like he was baffled at the idea that he was going to be put in instead of the other guys.

His coach just gave him a bored expression, “Is your name not Endo? Go!”

The blond scoffed, “okay, okay. Don't have a  stroke, old man.”

So he was put on the court, for what felt like the first time in quite a while. Endo certainly has been on the court before, but that was normally just at practice against his own teammates. Not necessarily against another team. Still, it was technically a practice game anyway. Plus, they were willing to try anything out to get their momentum going. Since he was subbed in, that meant that Tanaka was taken off of the court, just to shake things up a bit. That certainly did shake up the play style just a bit, but not enough to earn points against Fukurōdani. 

Endo did try his best, honestly. He was just a bit surprised to be actually put into the game. Most of the time people overlooked putting him in since he wasn’t all that good and he was never picked over his passionate teammates. Why put someone on the court you weren’t sure was going to put all of their effort into the game when you could put someone who would? It made sense that he was passed over all the time, and Endo wasn’t going to put that against anyone, since he understood. Though now that he was going to actually start focusing on getting better at volleyball, just to spite his father, perhaps it was time to change his outlook. He was going to really put his all into it. Even if that meant sweating a bit more than usual, though he was certain that it would be worth it. After all, he would love to say ‘I told you so’ to his father sooner rather than later.

Across the gym, the Nekoma team was also keeping an eye on the game between the owls and crows. “Hm… Splendid.” Nekomata said while watching Karasuno, “They’re splendidly… not in sync at all.”

Yua nodded her head before scribbling something down after watching Lev miss a dive. Most certainly keeping track of any missed receives that he has. Just so she could show Yaku her statistics later and see him scowl at the younger boy to practice them more.

They then watched as Nishinoya jumped up to actually set the ball. Their mouths were agape as Naoi exclaimed, “Jumping from the back zone and into a libero’s jump toss?” Though it didn’t really do much, since the libero ended up jumping a little too far. “I wonder what happened to Karasuno. Maybe they’re in some kind of rut?”

Nekomata laughed, “I think it’s the exact opposite. Because they’re crows, they’re omnivorous. It doesn’t matter if they’re deep in the mountains, or in the middle of Kabukicho. They eat everything there is to eat, and take advantage of those stronger than them to survive.” He explained as the other teams also kept an eye on Karasuno’s game from the corner of their eyes. “It looks like they’re in the middle of evolving at an incredible speed.”

Yua then pointed at the blond who wasn’t able to block Bokuto’s spike, “Though that one doesn’t seem to be catching up, huh?” Then again, Bokuto’s spikes could be pretty difficult to go up against. She didn’t really think a first-year would stand much of a chance against his spikes. So she really couldn’t hold it against Tsukishima. Hell, even she has issues with blocking Bokuto’s spikes!

---

After all of their many, many mistakes, Karasuno had ended up with quite a few penalty runs. Of course, the penalty was just as grueling as it was at the last training camp. However, instead of diving around the gym, they had to partake in Shinzen’s special “refreshing sprint up the grassy hill”. It was quite a refreshing sprint after doing it so many times. All of the boys were in quite a lot of pain after each round of penalties. By the end, it was just like last time, Karasuno was having a hard time standing up to 

Now that it was dark out, the moon gazed down on them after they’ve finished playing their last game of the day, Endo was laid out in the grass. He still was recovering from their last sprint up the hill, taking a breather with the rest of the team. He really was testing his athleticism today. While he certainly would exercise regularly, it wasn’t really to this extent. It was near torture in his opinion! Curse these coaches who wish to see them suffer like this. Why couldn’t one of the other teams just let them win?? He certainly would have loved winning at least one game to miss out on a penalty. 

Laid out in the grass with the other third-years and Tanaka, Endo was more than ready to go to bed. Hell, he could probably start sleeping right now. The grass that was scratching his back was extremely comfortable on his sore muscles. Besides him, Suga let out a sigh, “We amazingly lost all of our games.”

“It’s actually sort of refreshing.” Daichi smiled, perhaps a bit dazed after all of their penalties.

With a disbelieving scoff, Endo barely sat up on his elbows to glare at his captain, “If that was refreshing, then you are the biggest masochist I’ve met.”

“I haven’t done that many sprints since Coach Ukai was coaching,” Tanaka wheezed, face planted in the grass.

Daichi then sat up, “I’m gonna borrow the tablet from Ukai-san so we can review the synchronized attack video.”

“All right.”

“Sure thing.”

Asahi also got a hard look on his face, determination growing in his eyes, “I’m gonna go hit some serves. I need way more practice.”

Endo sighed heavily before groaning as he got to his feet, “Ah, geez, you guys are gonna make me feel left out if I don’t join in.” Yes, he could just go back to their shared room and go to bed for the night. However, the last thing that he wanted was to fall behind now after talking so boldly to his family before this. 

Meanwhile, in the gym, Sakura waltzed up to her brother as he was lost in his own thoughts. She knew that he was thinking about how his playstyle had changed and wasn’t exactly matching up with Kageyama’s. A big predicament for them as the freak duo obviously. Though now that they had the time, Sakura figured that it was a good moment to talk a bit.

“Shō-nii,” she said, trying to get his attention. Though that proved to be a bit difficult as he just continued to stare down at the volleyball he was holding in his hand. She wasn’t sure what he was thinking but really wanted to finally put this behind them. “Shōyō!”

He jumped out of his own mind as it had been racing with some many things. The practice matches had been abysmal and he was still not really on speaking terms with Kageyama or Sakura, so he was really not focusing all too much. However, now that his sister was actually here, in front of him, waiting for him to speak to her, he had to jump at the chance. He exclaimed, “Imouto!”

Sakura cringed at his shout, “You don’t have to be so loud.” It was slightly awkward between the two, since this had to be the longest that they had been able to be around each other. Though Shōyō looked more than eager now that they were having a conversation. Sakura cleared her throat, “we really do need to… talk.”

Shōyō had been wanting to talk with her. It was almost unbearable that they hadn’t been like they were before their big blow out a few weeks ago. They said the bare minimum to each other, didn’t interact much at school, and didn’t even ride home together, it was really driving him crazy. So he nodded his head, agreeing with her though not really knowing where to start.

“I want to make sure we understand each other,” Sakura started off slowly. “I’m not abandoning you.”

Shōyō let out a long sigh, “oh.”

“That’s not what I’m trying to do, okay?” Sakura scratched the back of her neck, “I’m sorry I never talked to you about what I’ve been feeling after all this time.” It probably would have been easier to deal with if she had been honest with him all this time. Or at least told him how she had been feeling a bit more than how she was. Was she good at dealing with emotions? Not really. However, she should have been more open with her brother. It would have most likely stopped their disagreement much sooner.

“I just… didn’t think that I wouldn’t notice something upsetting you.” Shōyō had been kicking himself ever since they had their argument. He prides himself on being such a good older brother, being there for both of his sisters and doing his best to help when or when not asked. Though to have it suddenly revealed to him that he had not been able to see some sort of issue that his twin was dealing with upset him. 

She just shrugged her shoulders, “It’s my fault for not telling you, Shō. Now I’m telling you that I think it’s better if we have some space.”

“So you can do photography?” There was a slight tinge of realization in his voice. It seemed like he wasn’t taking this as a generally back thing at the moment. Since having space did seem like one of the most horrible things in Shōyō’s mind at times. “I thought that you wanted to leave me because of the fight!!”

Sakura shook her head, “No! The fight, yes, did hurt a bit, but one argument isn’t going to make me just abandon you…” Why did it kind of bother her that Shōyō thought that she would do that? Did her constant support not make it clear that she was going to be there for him no matter what? Though she shouldn’t dwell on that thought, since they are really trying to make amends here.

Sakura could see Shōyō visibly deflate in relief. He then smiled, “that’s good then!” At least he was taking this better than a few days ago. Perhaps that was because they both had clear thoughts and could explain themselves a bit better.

“So you’re not… upset?” She bit the inside of her cheek, nervous for his answer.

Shōyō tilted his head, “I… was. Though I don’t think I knew what you meant.”

“Yeah, that was pretty clear,” Sakura scoffed.

He sheepishly apologized, “I’m sorry, Imouto.” 

“I figured we both just needed time to ourselves. I’m sorry too.” She cleared her throat, “I just… This isn’t me not wanting to be around you anymore or be involved in things, I just want a chance to be myself.”

Shoyo gave her a thumbs up, “I’ll definitely support you just like I usually will!” Even if he was still a bit… wary about this, he wasn’t going to stop her from doing anything she wants. Shōyō isn’t a selfish person, especially when it comes to his family. So it wasn’t like he would stop her from doing something she enjoyed. It would be hypocritical of him to do that. Though it definitely was going to take some time to truly understand and get used to it. 

The blinding smile that he flashed at her lifted a weight off of her chest. They had cleared up any misconception between them, it was a bit easier than she initially thought. If there was one thing it was Hinata’s were stubborn and it took quite a while to change their minds. So with that in mind, Sakura thought that it would take a bit to get accustomed to their newer dynamic. Though they could save that for when they get back home after this training camp.

So she nearly skipped out of the gym, more than content with just going to bed. Progress had been made between the two! They both had a clearer understanding between them. It was really starting to look up for Sakura. 

Though it seems like the universe had to keep a balance to itself. Since as she was walking towards her room for a wonderful night’s rest, she nearly ran into a giant who was too lost in his own thoughts to notice her either. She would have apologized if it hadn’t been Tsukishima. 

“Sorry didn’t see you down there,” he sneered

Sakura deadpanned, “You really aren’t original, are you?” Really why is he like this? Sakura wondered to herself. 

“Shouldn’t you be following your brother around or something?”

She stared at him with faux-confused eyes, “I didn’t think you paid attention to what I do. Are you stalking me or something?” She said sarcastically, “Though no. I’m going to sleep. Let that idiot lose sleep if he wants.”

She was going to try and walk away from him though Tsukishima just narrowed his eyes at her, “I thought after your fight you’d be begging for him to forgive you.” Based on what he had seen and heard, the twins weren’t on talking terms. They hadn’t been for quite a while now. It was strange for him to think that the twins weren’t attached at the hip or Sakura following her brother around like a lost puppy. As long as he’s, unfortunately, known them he had rarely seen them apart. Not having her at the practices also caused him to become quite confused. Had he noticed that she was missing the first practice that she had skipped? Perhaps. Though that wasn’t because of anything other than wanting to mess with her. He enjoyed getting to poke fun at her brother and by extension her. So he was just missing out on some fun entertainment with her gone.

Sakura rolled her eyes with gritted teeth, “It’s none of your business.” Though Tsukishima smirked, which set Sakura’s mind aflame with annoyance. She wasn’t going to let him know about anything. What goes on between her and Shōyō didn’t need to involve anyone else, especially not this bitchy blonde giant.  

Tsukishima towered over her and seemed to be quite pleased with himself that he was able to get under her skin, even if it was by a little. They continued to stare each other down, eyes narrowed in annoyance and smugness. Even if they weren’t saying anything it was pretty clear what both of them were thinking about the other. Her chocolate eyes were piercing his golden ones and neither seemed to be willing to step down.

“Oh, hey, you two. Karasuno!” A voice called, startling the pair out of their staring contest. Sakura glanced over to see that it was Kuroo who was calling out to them. He was standing at the entrance of a gym alongside Bokuto. “You with the glasses. Kitten-chan!” Sakura scowled at him as Tsukishima raised an eyebrow at him, “Would you jump some blocks for us?”

The two stared at them for a moment before Tsukishima bowed, “Oh, actually, I’m done for the night. If you’ll excuse me.”

Kuroo and Bokuto blinked, “What?!”

“I’m not a player,” Sakura said, though going ignored.

“There’s no point in practicing spikes without a blocker!” Bokuto said, “Come on!”

“Why does it have to be me? Why not someone from Fukurōdani?” Tsukishima asked.

Aakashi then walked up to the door and explained, “There’s no limit to Bokuto-san’s spiking practice, so everyone runs away pretty quickly.”

Kuroo jabbed his thumb over his shoulder at Lev. “I’m too busy whipping this guy into shape.” Said boy was currently pancaked on the floor, completely exhausted from his practice that his captain had subjected him to. 

“I said I’d jump some blocks!” Lev whined, still laying in his puddle of sweat.

“Shut up!” Kuroo shouted, “If you want to continue as a regular on Nekoma’s team, you need to actually be able to receive the ball!” He then focused back on Tsukishima and patted Bokuto on the back, “He may not look it, but this guy’s one of the top five spikers in the country, so it’ll be great practice.”

Aakashi blandly said, “So he somehow didn’t make it into the top three, huh?” That instantly deflated Bokuto.

Kuroo patted Bokuto on the back in comfort, “Don’t mind.”

“Don’t raise me up just to let me get knocked down!” Bokuto whined at his friend.

The Nekoma captain then turned to Tsukishima with a smirk, “Besides, if you’re a middle blocker, you should be practicing your blocking a bit more.”

That certainly got a reaction out of Tsukishima who just glared at them before marching into the gym. Sakura was still standing outside, more than ready to head back to the manager room to go to sleep. Though it wasn’t like Kuroo was going to let her go that easily. She felt hands suddenly under her arms, lifting her from the ground.

“Come on now, kitten-chan.”

“Hey!” She shouted while being dragged in. Well, it wasn’t really dragged, Kuroo was easily able to pick her off the ground and carry her like a feral cat. “This is kidnapping!” Though he just ignored her with his usual sharp smirk as he brought her inside, to the amusement of everyone else in the gym. Why can’t I just have a normal night, Sakura mentally huffed while giving up on escaping and stopped flailing her legs.

So she was finally let go and left to sit on the sidelines. She had no doubt that if she tried to leave Kuroo or Bokuto would try to chase her down and keep her there. Sakura found their inability to leave her alone annoying. She knew that Bokuto had some weird interest in knowing her due to Sato. Kuroo was a bit more of a mystery to Sakura since she didn’t think she would have interested him at all. Why so many of these guys wanted to keep annoying her at any chance they could, she’ll never know.

She plopped down on the ground, glaring at the boys as they got themselves ready. Akaashi, seeing her displeased expression, came over to her with an apologetic smile. “I’m sorry about them,” he said with a small bow, “they usually can be a hassle. I figure you’d rather be resting.”

She waved her hand dismissively, “don’t worry about it. I’ll stay for a bit,” she smirked up at him, “there’s nothing wrong with me observing Karasuno’s opponents, right?” Akaashi chuckled lightly at her smug expression before jogging back over to the court. If she was going to be forced to be here by those idiots then she was going to use this time to gather some information. Perhaps they could use it to their advantage if she told Ukai some of her thoughts about these specific players

Bokuto was spiking again and again against Tsukishima. It wasn’t like it was anyway of stopping him. Sakura couldn’t deny that Bokuto was an extremely strong player. His spikes were strong and looked difficult to block. She wouldn’t really know where to start with trying to block his spikes. Sakura watched as Tsukishima was having trouble with blocking it. So from time to time, she would snicker at his failure. Which certainly irked Tsukishima quite a bit. 

If all she was going to do here was find his attempts amusing, then why be here at all. While he also found it amusing that she had been forced here, she was getting on his nerves with the subtle comments that she was making about his form.

After missing yet another spike from Bokuto, who cheered at his spike, Tsukishima turned to the smirking girl, “Didn’t you want to go to sleep?”

Sakura rolled her eyes, “I did. Though I didn’t have much of a choice but to come in.” She threw a glare at Kuroo, who just shrugged his shoulders at her.

Tsukishima pursed his lips, “And here I thought you’d have been crying since you can’t follow your brother around like a sad puppy.” That certainly got a reaction out of her, which surprised Tsukishima just a bit. Considering he thought that she had grown some pretty thick skin after all this time. Though there was a spark of insecurity in her eyes that gave him pause only for a moment, just a miniscule moment. However, it was enough of a moment for him to feel just a little bit guilty.

Sakura gnawed at her bottom lip and just stared at him. He really wasn’t letting up, was he? Why couldn’t he just leave her alone? Her eyes grew narrowed while her mind started to fill with impulsive thoughts. Though could anyone really blame her if she went over to him and kicked him in the shin? She didn’t think so. However, she was going to be a better person here. So she took a moment to breathe through her nose and out her mouth before giving the boy the harshest glare she could.

“I know what you’re doing,” she stated, “I would appreciate it if you would stop, but knowing your inability to be civil, that isn’t going to happen.” She glared at him, which was returned back at her through his golden eyes, “Just know that you’re not getting anything out of me.”

With that she spun on her heels and marched out of the gym, certainly not going to stick around. She would need to calm down after having been around him for all this time. Why she even stuck around after being dragged in she’ll never know. Sakura could tell herself that it was to watch the other boys and report back to Ukai about what she saw all she wanted. Her insight isn’t really needed to help better the team, so who was she fooling? Either way, going to sleep and forgetting about that jerk was a need for her at the moment.

Though after all this time, she knew that Tsyukishima was trying to get a rise out of her. That was horribly obvious. As she’s figured out in the past, he had been trying to get under her skin in a multitude of ways. Unlike the last time she was bullied, she had stuck up for herself. Though perhaps the fact that she and Shōyō had just made up only a short time before this, it was still a bit raw for her to think about. So she wasn’t going to take this.

Back in the gym, it was still pretty quiet since Sakura had stormed out. Though Tsukishima tried to make it seem like it didn’t bother him at all. Which it didn't, obviously. Though it was still a bit tense around the gym. It was obvious that the other guys were quite disapproving of how disrespectful Tsukishima is to Sakura. 

Bokuto shook his head at him, “That was pretty mean, Tsuki-dude.” 

Tsukishima tutted, “Don’t call me that.”

“You shouldn’t be rude to people!” The owl captain exclaimed.

However, a cheshire-like smirk crawled onto Kuroo’s lips, “Oh, I see how it is. ” He slid over to the younger boy and gave him a mischievous stare. “This certainly isn’t the right way to get a girl’s attention, you know.”

Tsukishima stared at him blankly, “Huh?”

Kuroo dragged him under his arm as if he were about to tell Tsukishima a secret, “I can give you some advice if you want. It’ll be a lot better than just annoying her you know.”

It took a moment for his mind to process it, but Tsukishima finally understood what Kuroo was implying. His ears grew hot as he scowled, “that’s not what it’s like!”

Kuroo’s smirk didn’t leave his face, “sure, sure.” To Kuroo’s eyes, it was obvious why Tsukishima was being so mean to her. Tsukishima brushed off Kuroo’s arm and scowled before going back to the net. Ah, young love, Kuroo mused to himself.

---

So the next morning came, which meant more practice games, and plenty of more penalties for Karasuno. By mid-day, the team was quite exhausted since they were pushing themselves harder than they had yesterday. Just about every boy in the camp was trying to do the best that they could and improve. So Karasuno was losing just as much as they had been yesterday. The only difference being that the scores were a bit closer than before. While they weren’t perfectly in sync yet, they were on their way there.

Sakura talked with Shōyō more than she had in the entire week that they weren’t on talking terms. It seemed like as soon as they made up, Shōyō wanted to make up for lost time and made sure to talk with her when he could. Though there was one difference than usual. He gave her space. Shōyō didn’t interject himself into her conversation with others or ask her to be with him any chance he could. He had understood what she wanted, and wished to show her that. Certainly the progress that both of them wanted.

Eventually, the managers came into the gym with plates of watermelon in their hands, ready to share it with everyone. A well earned break was in order for all the teams. They all sat outside enjoying the sun and delicious watermelon. Sakura helped Yachi out with handing out watermelon before sitting down on the grass alongside the other managers to enjoy a slice herself. It was refreshing, even if she hadn’t been playing at all. She got to know a few of the other managers a bit more from the other schools. Yua had been more than happy with introducing her to them. Thankfully, most of the other girls were completely normal when compared to the likes of Yua or any of the other volleyball idiots. So that was certainly an upside in Sakura’s opinion. She got to know some of the other girls before their break was over. 

So Sakura had to go back into the gym and watch the boys continue playing. Which was quite painful since it was just Karasuno getting their ass beat just like the day before. She chatted idly with Yachi and Kiyoko as she observed the boys. They all were improving in their own ways, slowly but surely. Asahi seemed to grow some sort of determination within him, Nishinoya was working on his speed, and even Endo was working on improving. While all of the boys on the team were making some sort of improvement, there was one other thing that she noticed. Tsukishima was too stuck in his own thoughts to really make anything notable of his blocks. 

Sakura could see that he was… thinking about something. Debating in his mind, maybe? Having difficulty with something. Though it wasn’t like she cared, right? As long as he was good enough for the team to win games, then why would she care about his inner turmoil? She still certainly hadn’t gotten over what he had said the other night, though she would push that sour feeling away for the time being. She just hoped that he figured out whatever it was that he was having issues with. As much as she’d love to see him have some sort of failure, if that failure affected her brother, she didn’t want to encourage it.

---

A/n: So there's that. I'm thinking that in the next few chapters, we're gonna start hitting some developments in Sakura's relationship with Tsukishima. After all, she's getting her relationship with her brother intact and to a point that they are at an understanding, so it's time to focus on some other relationships of hers. I've always wanted to make this a slow, slow burn since I always saw that as a challenge for myself. Back when I first started writing fanfic I got characters into relationships pretty quickly and perhaps a bit unrealistically. So the relationship that Sakura and Tsukishima were going to have was going to be maybe a bit more... realistic? But definitely slow.

Thoughts on the atla live action series? I'm only half way through so I'm saving my full review of it until I get through all the episodes. Though I suppose it could be... worse. I have been sitting on an idea for an atla fanfic and though why not upload it now since there's a live action series now. I uploaded it last week and I'm happy with how it came out. The only thing is that the idea is a bit old so I'm going through my outline for it and refining some of the plot points that I created since I think I'm a bit of a better writer now lol

I've also been writing up quite a few other fanfics. New ones, when I know that I should be writing the ones that I already have in progress. However, these ideas just pop in my head and I can't help myself. However, I'm thinking of changing up how I upload and write fanfics going forward. I already tried it once and it didn't go the way that I wanted, but this time imma stick to it. I want to write out a bunch of chapters so they can go out on an actual schedule. Like one chapter a week, or maybe even one a day. Depends on how many chapters are completely written out. It's a bit of a different process since I'm use to getting feedback from you guys about the chapters as I write them. Though I think this is for the best. Let's just say that I have grow to love quite a few new shows and series and have some fics I want to write. Main one I'm focusing on is a Lost fanfic. Yes, Lost! So hopefully that'll be out.... at some point lol.

Anyway, let me know what you thought of this chapter! Until the next one, my friends!

Shitty memes are shitty

I’M SO SORRY, AKIRA, MY BOY,, BASKET-CHAN DOESN’T WANNA D ATE YOU,, (Tohru doesn’t wanna date her too tho so you’re good fam)

Also I didn’t even try when I was drawing Tanaka kms,,

[headcanons-no-jutsu]

How would they protect your drink

Characters: Sugawara, Bokuto, Kuroo

Warnings: alcohol use, drunk characters

Trust: 75%

·       Contrary to the popular belief that Suga is a mom friend and would always be reliable, when this man drinks a little too much at the party no one is safe.

·       If you ask him to hold your drink, he’ll definitely do it and he’ll treat it seriously, however, he’s too chaotic for his own good.

·       Drunk Suga is distracted way too easily and even though he tries so hard to focus on the cup that he’s holding, it’s certain that someone or something in the room will draw his drunk attention too much for a while.

·       Most of the time he will hold the cup till you come back, even though he literally forgets that he’s holding it. He might spill a bit of your drink when he gestures and talks very vigorously though.

·       However, there’s ¼ chance that Suga gets way too distracted. When he spots Noya and Tanaka wreaking havoc in the room, his mom instincts kick in and he will rush there to clumsily help and calm them down. He’ll put down your drink and run to the scene only to quickly come back to your cup 5 seconds later. He esentially runs one way and another chaotically.

·       So is your drink safe with Suga? Technically yes… But it’s better to hire someone who would watch over Sugawara watching over your drink.

Trust: 50%

·       There’s 50/50 chance Bokuto will deliver your drink completely safe to you or the drink will be long gone, nothing in between.

·       When you ask him to hold it for you, he will take this task very seriously, to the point that he’s obsessively looking at everyone in the room. He might be drunk as hell already but he would use all his remaining brain cells to focus on the cup you asked him to hold.

·       If nothing particular happens, you don’t have to worry about anything – your cup is well protected and you can safely drink it when you’re back.

·       However, sometimes Bokuto gets way too suspicious. Whenever he turns his head in a little distraction and then looks back at the cup, he tends to accuse people around him of messing up with your drink. Nothing like that ever happens - who would even care or dare to do anything with the drink he’s holding? Bokuto is deaf to any explainations though. He ends up straight up jugging the whole drink saying „I know you put something in there! I saw it with my own eyes!”.

·       His logics is simple – you can’t drink something potentially dangerous and at the same time he’s the one who has to discover if someone messed up with your drink. Glurp!

Trust: 100%

·       Listen, Kuroo’s the guy who gets it.

·       When asking him to hold your drink you’re not really sure about Kuroo for the first time (or any other time, to be honest). Sure, he’s responsible, but he’s also very laid back and you saw yourself that he often puts his own drink down without supervision.

·       What you don’t know is that it’s all Kuroo’s strategy.

·       He likes to lazily put down your drink, like he doesn’t really care. However, his eyes don’t leave it for a second. He can have a silly conversation with Bokuto, but he’ll continue staring at your cup.

·       His drunk self is ready for the confrontation so he only waits if someone gets closer to your cup or tries to put something in it. He really wants to out them in front of everyone and stop them like a superhero he thinks he is. Let’s be honest, he really wishes to impress you how cool, intimidating and protective he is.

·       When you’re back and if no one attempted to get closer to your drink, he will pick it up slowly and walk up to you with this lazy smile on his face. You’ll see him acting like it was not a big deal and this leaves you suspicious about his devotion to the task.

·       However, when he actually catches some guy messing up with your cup, you’ll enter the room to see Kuroo gripping the guy’s wrist that’s hoovering over your drink and threatening him with his lower voice.

·       Overall, you can completely trust Kuroo, he would never fail you. Even when he’s drunk, he’s perception is still sharp and he won’t get distracted from protecting your cup. Even though he uses his own methods to do so.

Hi lovely bruja! I don't know if you've written about this before but do you know any hidden talents of the signs?

Hidden Talents of the Zodiac Signs

Aries

These Militant natives are actually pretty good dancers. You will find many busting a move at the club or telling you over their lunch break that they used to breakdance on the corner of the local bodega when they were younger. Ysabelle Capitule, Val Chmerkovskiy, Bryan Tanaka, etc. Many as well are good with Children. Quite surprising considering how self [1st house] focused they are. Why you ask? Because they are the children of the zodiac themselves [0 degrees]. As a result, their hyper fire energy draws children in.

Taurus

Singing. Yes, I know this particular talent people thing Water signs or water mercuries have the monopoly on [Rihanna a Pisces, Carrie Underwood, Lana Del Rey a Cancer, etc] but as I mentioned here in my post about musical talent in the birth chart, many Taurean’s actually have golden pipes. Adele, Bon Iver, Janet Jackson, Stevie Wonder. Gang’s all here. I believe it has something to do with Venus as their ruler. Venus is also about creativity and art and singing is probably the most ancient art of them all.

Gemini

Selling. Yes, people tend to think the biggest talent Gemini’s have is journalism or writing- and these things are true. But these Mercurial natives could also sell salt to a slug, ice to an Inuit, and Raid to a bug. Because of their knack for witty banter and wordsmith-ship, they find it easy to win people over. Quite the handy talent when seeking to make a hefty commission. [Think Jordan Belfort from Scorsese’s ‘Wolf of Wall Street’]

Cancer

Acting. These Moon-lit natives have such emotional range and intuition that they’re able to capture the slight nuances needed to embody different characters well. Speaking of emotional range, because these crustaceans are probably the most emotional of all the signs, they’re able to influence the emotions of others as well. Something needed to get Rotten tomatoes to give you a decent score or influence the masses to flock to your film premiers. Actors such as Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Frances McDormand, etc. all share this sign and the moon as their most elevated planet. Another aspect helpful for acting.

Leo

Cooking. Yes, you’d be surprised how many of these leonine natives fancy food. But a Lion’s gotta eat, right? Because of Leo’s love for the finer things in life and their penchant for laziness from time to time, a full stomach is something they are quite keen on. They Love to experiment with recipe’s using only the finest herbs and spices. You say “organic”, they say “sold”. So Charcuterie boards, Sunday feasts, even a cooking competition and they’re in there like swim wear. One of my older brothers is a Leo and when our Mother was working night shifts and we had no money to eat out, he was the one who would find a way to turn all the scraps in the cupboards to something edible [and delicious]. You’ll find many famous cooks are born under the Sun’s sign, I.E Julia Child, Giada De Laurentis, Geoffrey Zakarian, etc.

Virgo

Writing. Yes, Virgo is earth but their ruler is cerebral Mercury. Ruler of the 3rd house. As a result, these natives live in their heads just as much as Gemini’s do. They’re knack for perfection and eye for analysis makes them excellent writers and story tellers. They can help paint the picture in the most technical sense and can come up with worlds upon worlds of history and lore. George R.R. Martin of ASOIAF fame, J.K. Rowling, Stephen King, R.L. Stine [Mercury in Virgo] all have this placement.

Libra

Business. Libras can be known as superficial fashionistas but that’s not completely true. These cardinal natives air first and foremost, and AIR sign. Which means they are quite intelligent. That, and their pre-disposition towards balance and equilibrium makes them highly adept at knowing when to buy and sell. In addition, they’re ruled by Venus who rules the 2nd house of money resources. As a result they have their hand in many ventures. Will Smith, Snoop Dog, Even Kim Kardashian are scale babies. 

Scorpio

Playing Matchmaker. Yes, Scorpios Can be ruthless. Yes, Scorpios can be unforgiving. Yes, Scorpios will go out of their way to find you and fuck up your life if you betray them. But besides all the Michael Corleone stuff- there’s also a deeply caring and romantic streak within these Mars/Pluto ruled natives. Their savvy of the human psyche, investigative nature, and deep understanding of passion makes them very aware of who would be best suited for whom. Just instinctually. A Scorpio grandmother might scan a crowd at her granddaughter’s dance recital and be able to pick her husband out of the crowd; or you might find two people recapping the story of their meet-cute only to hear them say: “our friend hooked us up!”. Don’t be surprised to find that said friend was born between October/November. 

Sagittarius

Survival. Yes, this is indeed a talent and not just saved for their neighboring arachnid cousins. Like, Scorpios, Sag’s have a talent for landing on their feet. They can find their way out of many a sticky situation. Their penchant for honestly and bluntness has a way of regaling others to listen to them when they speak. They can come off like Cult leaders even with their evangelical-like zeal. People flock to their fire. They also have this little thing called Jupiter in their back pocket- planet of fortune. These bastards just get lucky. Even when they put themselves in reckless adventure seeking situations, they always make it back to tell the tale. 

Capricorn

Comedians. Yes, I know this is the last thing you’d expect from a Saturnian given the sometimes incorrect evaluation that they’re just boring, backstabbing social climbers. But their austere nature gives them a very dry view of the world. A.K.A, Sarcasm. Highly intelligent as well, the best comedians can often deliver a one liner with with wit and bluntness. Something Caps have the monopoly on. They’re also quick on the draw and able to read the room well. Capricorns do well with taking in their surroundings and observing others, so when they tell their jokes, it’s funny because it’s true. Steve Harvey, Seth MacFarlane [NN in Cap], Jim Carrey are all Sea Goats with a comedic flare. 

Aquarius

Art/craftsmanship. Seriously, these Uranian Aliens have the Midas touch when it comes to creating things. No, not just nifty inventions with cogs and wheels akin to a steam punk novel. They are great with sewing, stitching, creating clothing, or just making random shit out of nothing. You can find them knitting in the back of class or making their own facemasks during the pandemic because what the stores were selling just wouldn’t suit. Very creative minds in regard to textiles. Narciso Rodriguez, Christian Dior, and Cristobal Balenciaga are all Uranian Natives.

Pisces

Photography. Now, this may not necessarily be hidden but I think it’s one of the talents these fish have that gets overlooked. Most believe they paint or draw, play an instrument or sing, but I find Pisceans have great eyes [figuratively in this sense.] They are often hidden behind the lenses of a camera, snapping photos of nature and capturing the little nuances the rest of us miss. You might not even know they have this pastime or hobby. And because of their tendency towards indecisiveness and disorder, photos give them the instant gratification they crave and all the options they want when it comes to the perfect shot. You want one of these natives at your wedding or graduation to shoot those timeless moments. Steve McCurry, Diane Arbus, Mary Ellen Mark all hold strong Piscean energy.

[kagejima]

hq but make it food truck competition

this is happening because @meloomi is a genius and finally all my useless food network competition show knowledge can be put to use fdhajfhskljfa. it's unedited because i wanted to write this as fast as i could before it left my brain and im lazy. OKAY LET'S GO!!!!!!!!!

KARASUNO

The three that run this food truck are Hinata, Kageyama, and Tanaka.

Saying it's a chaotic truck is an understatement

Nothing gets done, bc Tanaka has to be on the truck with either Kageyama and him cooking and the other taking orders or vice versa

Because if Hinata and Kageyama are on the truck together, it's.... bad. it's a very bad time

Tanaka is also The Oldest, so he is the one who has to make sure everything gets done with his One Brain Cell

If they ask how you like the food, and you INCREDIBLY BRAVELY say that you don't....

Tanaka will just kinda make a face and be like "No, YOU'RE stupid!!"

Hinata will probably cry because he's doing his best

Kageyama will be like "We still have your money, so who's the real loser here?"

NEKOMA

The three that run this food truck are Kuroo, Kenma, and Lev

Let's be real, Lev can't even fit on the truck so he's the one that has to stand outside and take orders

Man literally has to stay seated while taking orders because he's too tall to hear you say it

Kuroo is flirting with everybody he gives an order too (if he thinks you're cute, he'll write his phone number on your dish)

Kenma just wants to go home.

That's it.

But he loves Kuroo too much that that's why he's here.

AOBA JOHSAI

The three that run this truck are Oikawa, Iwaizumi, and Matsukawa

Iwaizumi runs the show, but he stays on the truck always.

Oikawa and Matsukawa always take orders because they can get customers bc they walk by and it's either Pretty Man or Big Man.

They get.... a lot of phone numbers.

Iwaizumi has an especially long stick he uses to stick out the window of the truck and bat Oikawa's head if he starts flirting too much instead of taking orders.

SHIRATORIZAWA

The three that run this truck are Ushijima, Tendou, and Goshiki

I don't even have to tell you that Tendou is the one in charge of taking orders

Ushijima and Goshiki are S I L E N T as they cook on the truck together,

Ushijima is just minding his own business

Goshiki thinks he's fucking up so badly that Ushijima won't talk to him

Tendou has to work triple time to get customers because people take one look at Ushijima in the window and go "Is that man gonna poison me????"

I'm not super familiar with Date Tech having only watched the show one time so far, pls dont hate meeee

FUKURODANI

Fukurodani is the rare truck where there's only two of them competing and it's obviously Bokuto and Akaashi

Bokuto is great at drawing in a crowd

Akaashi is excellent at getting the orders out in a timely manner

They both are very aware of their roles

And maybe that's because Akaashi let Bokuto cook on the truck ONE TIME and the whole fire department had to come...

Bokuto has not touched a cooking utensil since

AND FINALLY

INARIZAKI

we got Aran! we got Atsumu! we got Osamu!

like the Fukurodani truck, Atsumu is allowed to touch LITERALLY NOTHING except a pen and a pad to take orders

If you say you don't want his food, Atsumu will do one of two things:::: Flirt with you excessively to get you to buy the food

Or he will cry when you walk away from him

Osamu and Aran have to make up for Atsumu a lot by offering free samples

Like Kenma, Aran just wants to go home

If he has to hear Osamu and Atsumu argue one more time...

Just...

Let poor Aran go home

And that's it!!! Hope you enjoyed, this was very fun to write! Thank you Mizu my bb!!!!!

[notdewtree]

i just read last month’s chapter and it injured my feelings on top of getting the urge to draw

lawlicht block of text under the cut

So for context, this is a scene from Angel’s Glasses Hunt (2018 ver) Lawless’ birthday event for the game the Land of Nod (now called TANAKA BOX lmao). 

It was this point in the event that made me go “oh my god, that means Licht thinks Lawless looks better without glasses” and I forgot that became an hc of mine for a while.

No screenshots from this point on ‘cause I’m lazy, but in the ending of the event, Licht mentioned that on the day of their contract, “you took off your glasses that day didn’t you?” (damn I forgot which .5 chapter this is, but when Lawless introduced himself as Hydey the Hedgehog for the first time, he took off his glasses when introducing himself) and then Licht said something along the lines of “I thought you took off your glasses because you wanted me to let my guard down, but the truth is that’s not the case is it? You wanted to show me your true form, and you wanted to see with your own eyes.”

Listen, Licht says a bunch of confusing tenshi shit, but at least that’s how I interpreted his words. (Lawless doesn’t get the point either, or at least pretended he doesn’t get it). I wonder if this event’s been translated now, it’s been so long since it’s been rerun lol (I say 2018 ver. because after 2020? I think? It just became a glasses mini-game not a quiz answering game where you buy glasses and triggers small talks).

So yeah, on top of Licht thinking he doesn’t “like” Lawless wearing glasses, I think he sees a deeper meaning to it too, which to be fair isn’t completely wrong, he’d only gotten full fake and Shakepeare after he’d worn glasses.

bro what the fuck look at all this shit i just wrote

overthinking glasses-less lawless

So yeah I’m not gonna say anything about last month’s chapter, but the amount of... Not-wearing-glasses Lawless scenes in it re-ignited my forgotten “oh yeah doesn’t Licht fancy Lawless more without it?” personal headcanon from 4 years ago.

and one more thing. If anyone’s interested on playing the 2018 ver of Angel’s Glasses Hunt, it’s still accessible in the old domain (link here). If you want to play fair and actually have fun with the quiz, I wrote a general guide here. Again, don’t know if anyone’s translated it, but the full complete dialogue is archived here.

[eggs-and-dragonflies]

I was talking with @aerugonian and Raven about Katoshi in the Twin AU (in which he is the twin brother to Hitoshi Shinsou) and also runs a flower shop to make money for them to live and Raven gave me the awful description of “white hair in a ponytail, flower shaped sunglasses, and neon pink face mask” for him so obviously I had to draw it.

The name tag was written by Hitoshi himself, he likes to make Katoshi’s name tags different daily. This one was because Katoshi said no to getting him a cat. And the flower shop is called Tanaka’s Flowers because Katoshi was too lazy to change the name of it when he took over lmao. This drawing is so cursed but I love it.

(captain ver.)

-

Iwaizumi Hajime

Cold breeze of the air conditioner brushed past the exposed skin of your thighs, and you shivered as you pulled his jacket down lower onto you so that you could try to steal some warmth. 

When was he coming back?

Perhaps it was mischief on your part, but you just couldn’t help but wanting to put your hand on every chance that made cause a crack or two on your handsome lover’s hard shell. Hajime was better than anything you could have ever asked for, you smiled at the thought of the man who was no doubt on his way home with no hint of a clue as to what was waiting for him behind the door, toying with the soft fabric of the long sleeves that was dangling off your arm.

Iwaizumi Hajime held you in his palm and you knew that whatever you wanted, he would give you. But you never feel more powerful than the moment you felt it with your whole body how much of a hold you had on him.

You perked up at the sound of keys turning, biting the inside of your cheeks to hold your grin back as you envisioned his reaction to seeing you naked in front of him with the exception of the jacket your holding together with your arms.

“I’m home-”

Iwaizumi froze at his spot when he turned around after closing the door to see you standing right at the hallway. Your legs were completely bare and his eyes widened when he saw the familiar blue of his old jacket.

“Welcome back...” He felt shivers down his spine at the sugar sweet voice you had opted for, “I miss you.”

You slowly crossed your legs and he fought back the urge to focus on the exposed skin. You chuckled at his wide eyes and clear struggle to keep his gaze up. The heavy gulp he took when you shrugged off the jacket with a roll of your shoulder, the fabric now hanging low at your collarbone.

He felt his body stiffen at your blatant display of seduction, his eyes looking everywhere but you as you rolled off the other sleeve of the coat until the heavy fabric pooled in front of your chest.

“Hajime?”

Your voice was innocent as you called out his name, but what you did as he finally looked up at you was anything but innocent. As if on cue, you dropped the jacket to the floor the moment your eyes met and his eyes widened. You could see him slowly giving in to his desire to drink in your naked form, his eyes raking all over you.

You felt anticipation rousing in you as he walked forward to you. The calloused pad of his fingers on your wrist as he held your arms apart to take a better look at you and your thighs rubbed together reflectively when his eyes darkened. 

Crashing onto you in an instance, you moaned into the feverish kiss as his hands started to wander. The tent in his pants poking your supple skin as he said in your ear, his voice low and stern and made you weak in your knees.

“Jump.”

You obeyed, and his arms hooked under your legs with ease. You kissed and sucked at his sharp jaw as he carried you to the bedroom, feeling the heat that rushed to your core when he dropped you onto the mattress.

Your back arched when he climbed on top of you, a swift roll of his hips grinding his bulge on your naked cunt.

“You asked for this,” he swallowed the whine that slipped past your lips as he cupped your sex, “I’m not holding back tonight...”

Sakusa Kiyoomi

You should not. You really should not. 

You could already envision how pissed off Omi would be if he found out what you did while he was gone but you just couldn’t help but giving into the ache  in your core that you had been putting off. He was away for a friendship match and you craved his touch on you so so much. You tried handling it yourself, but burying your face into his pillow while stroking your folds were not enough. Sakusa and his need for cleanliness meant that his scent was left on basically nothing but your own imagination just didn’t suffice.

You felt perverted as you held his jacket to your nose, feeling yourself clench when you inhaled. He had put it in the romper hastily when he was rushing to leave the door, asking you to wash it for him before giving you a chaste kiss on the forehead as farewell. You had since forgotten about it, slacking a little when he wasn’t around, and right now you were glad that your own laziness had aided you in times of need.

Holding the fabric to your face, your hands crept along your legs until your fingers were lingering on your inner thigh. You whined at the faint smell of him that was left on the fabric, the sweat that was left on it when he last wore it fueling your senses. Teasing your folds with the tip of your finger, you imagined that he was here with you now. His nimble fingers prying your cunt open, the way he made you look at him as he slowly eased those long, defined digits into your tight walls. He always took his time with you, scissoring his fingers inside of you agonisingly slow just to watch you crumble. His voice calm and collected by your ear as you were reduced to nothing but a moaning mess from just his hand along, each expert flick of his wrist making your toes curl.

The fear of what would happen if he saw you like this was pushed to the side, or perhaps part of you were thrilled by the idea of ticking him off.

God, just thinking about the way he looked at you makes your walls clenched, even though no amount of imagination could compare to the real deal. How he stared down at you as he shattered every last bit of your restraint, the amount of dominance that was held in his eyes ever never failed to push you to the edge. 

“What do you think you are doing?”

The weight that was building in your stomach dropped at the cold voice that rang from the doorway. You felt the shiver on your skin as you turned to see Sakusa looming at the side of the mattress, heat flaming your skin in shame and a threatening sense of thrill.

You held your breath as the mattress sunk under his weight, not daring to move as he crawled on top of you. Sakusa clicked his tongue when he saw you clutching his jacket and the sound made you clench almost embarrassingly. His eyes darkened when his gaze lowered to your hand that was between your legs, your juices staining the sheets you were laying on.

You were about to pull your fingers out of your pussy when he suddenly gripped your wrist, pressing you deeper inside and drawing out a sharp whine from you.

“Keep going.”

The gravel tone of his voice made you shiver, and you looked up at him with your eyes wide. 

“I said,” he gritted, his hand digging into your thigh as he pried your legs apart, “keep going.”

Gulping, you slowly set your pace as you pumped your fingers in and out of your cunt, feeling so little under his stare. You wanted to crawl under a hole at how intensely he was looking at your gushing hole, lewd squelches getting louder and louder as your arousal built up.

“Touching yourself to a dirty shirt of mine... I’m gone for, what? A few days? And you’re already acting like a filthy slut,” he sneered when he heard you moan. Your breaths were shaky as you felt the numbing waves of pleasure washed over you, his degrading words only worked to make your toes curl even harder as you came. 

Sliding your fingers out, you hissed when you felt him held your hand in place. You were already sensitive from the previous prodding, but every hair on your body stood up when he pushed his fingers into your abused cunt. Your whimpers were sharp when he started pumping his fingers inside of you.

“Did I say you can stop?” 

You whimpered when he leaned forward, pushing his digits deeper inside you. The corner of his lips curling up when he was right by your ear.

“I’m going to break you tonight.”

Tanaka Ryuunosuke

Tanaka nearly had a heart attack right then and there when he switched on the lights to see you all curled up on the sofa in his old Karasuno jacket.

So cute, so cute, so cute, so cute-

He gulped, trying to calm himself down as he lowered his footsteps. It took him all his might to stop him from yelling from the bottom of his chest when he saw the way you were sound asleep and so defenseless in the black jacket that could nearly work as a blanket on you. Your face was buried into the sleeve, looking so serene as soft snores slipped from your trembling lips. You had your knees to your chest and the jacket covering your body, that could not be a very comfortable posture.

He slid his arms under your frame, freezing in place when he felt the soft skin under his touch. Heat rushed to his face and somewhere he was trying hard to control as all sorts of images appeared in his mind. Shaking his head vigorously to get rid of any impure thoughts, he carefully wrapped you up in his jacket before lifting you up in his arms.

You were so cute, so unalerted in his arms. He must not taint your trust for him with any perverted thoughts, oh no no no...

He felt like he was stumbling on his steps as the thought of you being bare under his jacket barged into his mind again and again despite his best efforts to not focus on how soft your thighs were under his hand, how the jacket was threatening to slide off of you and he could see your cleavage from underneath. He bit his lips, feeling the familiar strain in his jeans when his attention drifted the more he tried not to let his mind wander.

Control... control...

Letting out a heavy sigh when he gently place you on the mattress, Tanaka felt the weight came off his shoulders. Ready to leave the room to let your rest, he felt all his restraint shattered when he heard a soft whimper.

“Ryuu?” you shifted on the bed and his throat bobbed when you sat up only to have the jacket slid off of you, showing your very bare chest, “you’re back?”

Tanaka’s mind was in shambles, even worse when you reached out for his arm and tugged at him. 

“Stay with me.” your voice was so sweet as you latched onto his arm. His back stiffen at the feeling of your soft mounds squishing against him. “Please?”

There was no way he could say no to you, but right now he just wanted to reach his hands out and took your tits in his hands, to hear the same sweet voice sigh as he rolled your nipples between his finger. 

Your lips were ghosting at his neck as you leaned on his shoulder, your hand rubbing circles on his forearm when he slowly settled next to you. “I must have fallen asleep while waiting for you...”

You could see his jaw clenched. So you were waiting for him after all, he felt a sudden relieve and itch now that he knew his earlier inner conflict was not needed. You giggled, he always showed everything he was thinking right on his face.

Lazily crawling onto his lap, you held his face in your hands and tilted it so that he was looking at you. You grinned at the hardness that was poking at you, leaning down to whisper against his lips.

“I want you.”

As if a switch was clicked on, he flipped you over with the force that he was withholding before trailing his lips down your neck. His hips bucking against you as he muttered again and again how much he adored you.

Got him.

Miya Osamu

You groaned at the thumping in your ears as you struggled to open your eyes.

Looking around the dimmed room, you sighed at how you must have fallen asleep while scrolling through your phone on the bed after your shower. No wonder why your head was pounding like crazy, napping with your hair damped was arguably any good for you. 

How did it get so dark in such a short time? How long had you been asleep?

There was no sign of Osamu being back. Knowing him, he would probably wake you up or tug you in if he saw you sprawled out on the bed with your phone loosely held in your hand. The apartment was all silence except for the shifting of the sheets underneath you.

Slowly sitting up, you winced at how tight your throat was. The towel that you were wrapped in was long discarded and you were far too in need of hydration to go search for any decent clothing, it wasn’t like there was anyone here to look at you anyways. 

Going blindly in the dark, you tentatively leaned down to feel your way around the floor until you touched something that vaguely resembled a shirt. Pulling it off the ground, you squeezed your eyes together to see what you were holding in the dark only to find that it was Osamu’s jacket that he always wear around the house. You threw it on, holding it close to you as you stumbled your way out of the bedroom.

You flipped on the switch at the side of the door frame for the kitchen, blinking to adjust to the brightness.  Gulping down the cup of water, you let out a satisfied sigh when your throat stopped feeling like it was about to be ripped apart.

You nearly dropped the mug in your hand when you felt a tight grip around your waist. Strong arms trapped you between the counter and a frame that was much larger than yours, you smiled when you felt the person rubbing their face against your neck while letting out a soft whine.

“Samu, what are you doing?” you asked, your hand rubbing circles on his palm that was laid flat on your stomach.

“Recharge,” your boyfriend who was crouching over you mumbled against your skin, wrapping his arms tighter around you as he spoke, “busy day at the shop...”

It was rather amusing to see your 6 feet tall boyfriend curled up on your back claiming that he needed his daily recharge, but still, you leaned back instinctively at the heat that was radiating from his chest. You felt a sudden shake from behind, and then he let go of you for a split second.

Ah, this was why the texture was so familiar. Osamu thought as he took a glimpse at the embroidered words behind the black jacket.

That’s cute, he hummed before latching himself onto you again, feeling your body moved in his arms as you chuckled.

He dropped his arms by your side, toying with the elastic of the jacket.

He felt a familiar twitch when his finger brushed past the bare skin of your thighs.

“Samu? Ah-” you hissed at the sudden friction when he shoved his knee between your legs. Pushing the jacket higher until it was bunched up around your waist, he darted his tongue out to lick his lips at the sight of your cunt.

You whined when his placed his palm flat on your back to push you down until your chest was pressed against the counter, his index finger tracing your folds before dipping the tip in to feel the wetness that was starting to gather.

Your fingers held tightly onto the edge of the counter as you felt your ass cheeks being pried apart, a soft puff of air against your exposed sex sent shivers down your spine.

“Don’t you think I deserve a treat for all the hard work I put in today?”

Every word made your skin crawl as his hot breath fanned across your pussy, and you could barely say a word without it coming out as a mere mewl when he licked a long strip up your folds.

“Itadakimasu...”

their team reacts to seeing them with hickeys/back scratches 💫

characters: kageyama, akaashi & kita

tw// fem! reader, sexual references, swearing, blood 

kita tw// mentions of daddy kink, punishment, overstimulation - MINORS DNI 

KITA’S IS AGED UP!!

thank you anon for the request 💗

Tobio Kageyama

he was on tanaka’s team for game amongst karasuno and he watched his senpai take off his shirt and wave it around after they scored another point

but instead of putting the shirt back on, he kept it off bc he was too lazy to go get it since he threw it to the other side of the gym

then noya took his shirt off too bc he was sweating buckets 

but kageyama wasn’t really sure why they had their shirts off so he felt the need to ask

‘why aren’t you putting your shirt back on?’

noya was just kinda like ‘who are you, my mom?’ but tanaka gave him a straight answer which was ‘it helps with ✨ aerodynamics✨’

kageyama isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed so he doesn’t even know what aerodynamics are

but then he watched tanaka make a killer spike and he was sold 

shirt = off

aerodynamics = thriving (?)

sets = awesome

back scratches = exposed 😳

hotel = trivago 

tsukishima was the first one to notice ofc as he was positioned right behind kageyama 

he didn’t say anything tho bc yamaguchi was on the opposite team so he just had to snicker to himself

hinata was like ‘what’s so funny, stinkyshima?!’ bc he automatically assumed that tsukishima was laughing at him lol

but then he followed tsukki’s gaze and leaned back to look at kageyama’s back too

‘yeesh, man. you should probably put some aloe vera on that or something, it could get infected.’

AIUWRAFHBE ok ok hinata isn’t completely oblivious to the connotations of back scratches but he’d never think in a million years that kageyama would get laid so he kinda subconsciously ruled that possibilty out-

kageyama quirked a brow, ‘what?’

‘your back! it’s all mangled.’ 

then noya and tanaka ran over and fkn BURST OUT LAUGHING 

at this point, all of kageyama’s team was surrounding him while the other team waited patiently for them to serve

but after a while, it was clear that they weren’t gonna do that so suga - who was on the opposing team - strolled over to see what they were all laughing about

and when he saw it- bitch- he went red 

a cool mom so he probably made a suggestive remark as he walks away

it eventually got to the point where everyone in the gym was crowded around kageyama and for ease, i’ll categorize their reactions:

laughing their ass off  ➵ tsukishima, tanaka, nishinoya, coach ukai & yamaguchi

concerned and confused  ➵ yachi, takeda, hinata & narita 

a blushing mess  ➵ asahi, kinoshita & sugawara

unfazed 😐  ➵ kiyoko & daichi 

LIVID  ➵ kageyama

‘WHY DO YOU ALL CARE SO MUCH ABOUT MY BACK?!’

kageyama could literally break his neck and walk into practise with a neck brace and no one would bat an eye but now that he has scratches on his back, suddenly everyone is so concerned about his wellbeing? where with this energy that time he said that hinata gave him a concussion?

to be fair, he didn’t have a concussion- also, he forgot the word so he told suga that hinata gave him a ‘conclusion’

daichi agreed, trying to usher everyone back to their spot on the court, ‘yeah, it’s no big deal, guys. let’s get back to practise.’

everyone slowly made their way back to where they were previously but since tanaka and noya were still on kageyama’s team, they continued to pry 

tanaka flung his arm around kageyama’s shoulders, ‘so how’d you get those scratches, big boy?’ 

an ungodly laugh left noya’s mouth

kageyama shrugged, ‘(y/n), i think.’

the whole gym room went silent before erupting in choruses of laughter once again

‘WELL YOU AND YOUR GIRLFRIEND NEED TO CALM DOWN THEN!’ tanaka wheezed

kageyama was truly the idiot that didn’t understand the implications of the back scratches - so you can imagine that he was frustrated when everyone started laughing again

‘what’s so funny?’ but then, he recalled the events which he was pretty certain were the reason for the marks on his back......it was pretty funny

you insisted on giving kageyama a back massage after a long day of practise so he took his shirt off and let you go for it 

for the record, he really loved it :)) he was just so happy sitting there between your thighs as you sat on the couch and rubbed his back, loosening all the knots he didn’t even know he had

but then he got a lil’ inch on his back and was like ‘can you get that for me?’ since your hands were already on his shoulders/back

ofc you said yes and started lightly scratching the spot he desired, but being extra careful bc you just got you nails done in the stiletto shape and the last thing you wanted to do was puncture his back lol

‘harder..’ kageyama muttered so low that you almost didn’t hear him

you obliged, pressing a bit harder 

‘harder.’ he insisted once more

again, you served by digging your nails in a bit deeper

‘harder.’

‘no, kags. i’ll literally pierce your skin if i press any harde--’ 

‘harder!’ he barked (for a joke) and you jumped from fright, instinctively pushing in more and increasing the pace of your hand

at this point, you were rigorously clawing at his back, on the verge of drawing blood which you could tell by his skin’s newfound crimson pigment 

kageyama took it upon himself to lean backwards onto your nails to force you to go rougher as you had yet to ease his itch 

then you let out a high-pitched scream so naturally, kageyama jerked away then peered over his shoulder to make sure you hadn’t like..died

‘what?!’ he asked, eyes filled with worry

‘blood!’ you yelled, pointing at his back before sprinting to the kitchen to get a tissue 

kageyama’s gaze followed you until you were out of sight, then he lightly touched his back around the parts you were scratching and once he pulled his hand away, he noticed the blood which was now on his fingers

‘oh.’

the concerning part was that he didn’t even feel it tbh 🤔

anyway tanaka and noya probably coo ‘oooh~ lovebirds~’ when you come pick him up from practise

Keiji Akaashi

bokuto heard some ppl whispering about akaashi & (y/n) in the changing room so he turned around to take a look at his friend then he noticed the scratch marks on his poor friends’ back

‘AKAASHI!! DID YOU GET MAULED BY A BEAR?!?!’ he screamed, grabbing the attention of everyone in the changing room and those who weren’t whispering about akaashi before, were definitely doing so now

akaashi smiled softly and shook his head, hastily throwing on his shirt and buttoning it up as he spoke, ‘no, bokuto-san.’

bokuto quirked a brow, wondering what could’ve possibly happened before his jaw dropped to the ground

‘is it ‘cause i patted your back a bit hard earlier?!?!?’

akaashi didn’t even bother to question how bokuto could think that a slap on the spine could lead to scratch marks and instead just replied normally, ‘no.’

bokuto was stumped once again- why else would his buddy have marks on his back? and why was (y/n) such a prominent name floating around in this changing room? doesn’t everyone know that she is taken by bokuto’s best-bro akaashi?

....

WAIT

bokuto’s jaw hung open once again as his soul left his body through an overdramatic gasp, before leaning in and whispering in akaashi’s ear, ‘wait- don’t tell me- you and (y/n)-’

akaashi’s cheeks tinted red slightly so he turned his head away while he pulled on his blazer, ‘no.’

bokuto let out a light sigh of relief, gently patting his pal’s back, ‘ah, good. but then, where did those marks come from?’

before akaashi even got the opportunity to open his mouth to respond, komi and konoha passed the pair, konoha patting akaashi’s shoulder and komi shot him a toothy grin accompanied by a thumbs-up, ‘get some, akaashi.’

then they walked off, konoha mubbling something about his chances with (y/n) being ruined 

this left both bokuto and akaashi extremely confused

once all traces of komi and konoha were gone, akaashi proceeded to explain himself

‘backne is a horrible thing.’ he murmured, grabbing his satchel, slinging it over his shoulder before strolling out the changing room. ‘i’ll wait for you outside.’

and bokuto just stood there like (。_。) ‘what’s backne?’

Shinsuke Kita

atsumu had invited the whole squad back to inarizaki for one last game before coach kurosu’s retirement 

after ages of arrangement, the whole team were able to make an appearance at the game - whether that be for 10 minutes or the whole thing

kita was able to stay for the whole thing

he was currently warming-up while chatting with aran before he was approached by atsumu, who was as lively as ever

‘mister rice farmer! it’s good to see you again!’ he sung, tossing his arm around kita’s shoulder and patting it in a friendly manner, ‘how’s life been treating ya?’

kita and atsumu somehow managed to make small-talk as if they hadn’t been apart for the last 6 years

‘me and my girlfriend have only been together for 6 months but i think i’m ready to settle down.’ atsumu mused, tapping his elbow before realising that he had been talking about himself for a while, ‘but anyway, i see that you and (y/n) are still going strong. haven’t y’all been together since the first year of highschool? that’s impressive! when are you gonna wife her up?’ 

kita perked up upon hearing that, ‘uh, yes. but how do you know that?’

atsumu couldn’t help but smirk, casually running a hand through his hair before motioning to the hickey on kita’s neck which was on semi-display, ‘right there, bud.’

kita looked down but unfortunately, his neck didn’t bend enough to see what atsumu was referring to 

‘also,’ atsumu chuckled, slightly embarrassed about what he was going to admit ‘i saw the pic of her you put on your facebook.’

‘ah, okay.’ that one kita could understand

atsumu was about to open this mouth to say something but then the shrieking noise of the coach kurosu’s whistle rang through the gym room, indicating the start of the match

the game went surprisingly smooth tbh 

minimal fights :o

but kita did get teased quite a lot smh 

anyway, after everything was all said and done and everyone started to filter out the gym, kita rushed to the bathroom to check himself in the mirror and see what atsumu was referring to on his neck

once he took a look at himself, he frowned

just as he thought, a hickey - that’s embarrassing

it was clear you made an effort to place hickeys in areas that would be hidden though as the bruise was barely peeking out from under the collar of his jersey, atsumu just has a rather keen eye 

however, that wasn’t going to stop kita from pounding you dry when he gets home - as a punishment ofc 

kita was about to leave but he couldn’t help but stay and stare at himself in the mirror for a bit longer, recalling last night as he wondered at what point you bit those onto his neck

was it during the 2nd round? or the foreplay? or perhaps the 4th round? wait- no- definitely during aftercare cuddles!..or actually, maybe the 1st round?

in all honesty, he couldn’t remember 

to him the whole night was a blur of pounding into you relentlessly, overstimulation, pleads for mercy, tears, passionate kisses and praise

with a sprinkle of daddy kink but let’s not talk about that

oh, and not to forget the way you’d call out his name just as you were about to reach your orgasm 

or your sweet, lewd whines that echoed through the room when he thrashes against your sensitive spot 

and don’t get him started on the cute little nicknames you have for him that squeal out through moans, like ‘daddy’, ‘master’, ‘sir’ etc 

kita snapped out of his fantasies, letting out a sigh and about to exit the bathroom- until he noticed himself in the mirror out of the corner of his eye

he was hard

smh smh smh 

now he was stuck between a rock and a hard place

(literally 🤠)

he could either potentially embarrass himself or cause an accident by walking to his car and driving home with a throbbing boner

or he could call you to help him jerk off in a bathroom stall

so he took a seat in one of the stalls - for the sake of the ppl he might run over if he did otherwise  

he rung you up and thankfully, you picked up and you weren’t feeling bratty enough to deny him the help he needed so badly

although it wasn’t a very pleasurable experience since he was constantly on hyper-alert just in case the janitor walked in, at least he got a lot of nostalgia from it :))

HQ CAPTAINS AS THINGS

i was bored and felt like doing a crackfic thing but i didn’t have any solid themes or good ideas

SO I PRESENT TO YOU - THE CAPTAINS. AS THINGS. IDK HOW TO WORD THIS BUT YOU’LL SEE AS WE GO ALONG.

warnings: VERY LONG, slandering a crybaby oikawa (lovingly), mentions f!reader, shitposting, mentions of violence in kita's, (a bit) yandere!kita, cursing, unedited, me being an idiot

officer!daichi

we are: vigilante/troublemaker

loving the enemies-to-lovers trope so much

nah bro you ain’t full criminal (bc my preppy ass could never) you just do the small vandalism things y’know like drawing peepees on government buildings and knocking over bins

u literally confessed to him by spraypainting the entire billboard by his workplace “I LIKE YOU” like way to go girl

He didn’t appreciate the creative graffiti but he rlly likes u so all u had to do was clean it and then next thing u know yall are out on a cute cafe date

but let’s talk about before yall got together

he’d CHASE u thru alleyways when he’d catch you writing “police sux” on the fuckin wall

bro is NOT AT ALL afraid to jump onto the roofs it’s FRIGHTENING to see this huge ass police officer storm after u

HES SO FAST HOT DAMN WOMAN HOW DO U GET AWAY FROM HIM??? USAIN BOLT WHOMST???

you’d almost always get away by a hair - he’s SO SO close

and it frustrates him but excites u oooooo arrest me shawty

and this would continue for a while

but yall have such fun fun banter - you’d tease him and he’d say something back and you’d bolt and he’d chase

some days he’d catch you. but in those times u slip away somehow

he’s having so much fun and doesn’t even know it

and then at one point he doesn’t even care about bringing u to justice anymore. he knows it’s bad for business and it’s unprofessional but he’s so attracted to u

he doesn’t even know it. HES IN DENIAL!!! his mind: “oh i’m just asking about her so that i know her motives” bruh no u just asked about our fav pastry this aint about crime anymore

and when he finally gets it,,,DINGDINGDINGDING SOUND THE ALARMS !!! MAN IS WHIPPED!! he’s more shy around u awww,,,doesn’t even want to chase u anymore but he will still engage in banter w u.

yall get a little peace treaty in the lil crush stage - you both are kinda aware of ur feelings towards each other but don't really wanna mess it up and jeopardize whatever's going on like bros PLEASE JUST KISS ITS INFURIATING

it’s more of a competition to see who will break the other first (and you lost he’s too hot)

he lets u joyride his cop car in an empty parking lot <3 he is the one <3 this is true love

u gotta marry him right now bro no excuses

u are no longer on the crime side of the law,,,u support him and only him fuck the rest of the cops (i’m jk of course...or am i)

u are his badass sidekick <3 unofficially of course until he marries u

u help him with the small things like helping lost children find their parents and helping old ladies cross the street

but you want to do the FUN stuff - chasing thieves and arresting drunkards.

unfortunately, he loves u too much to put u in danger so he keeps u from doing the dangerous things

after some protesting later, he trusts u to take care of urself. and now yall have a competition just like old times - whoever catches the most baddies at the end of the month wins (he WILL scold u if ur too reckless though)

THE TWO OF U ARE JUST GOOD COP BAD COP UHAHAHAHAHAHA

but it’s much more complicated than that - it’s either ur the laidback one and he’s the strict one or ur the fiery one and he’s the person like “calm down”

PLEASE HE HATES BRINGING U TO INTERROGATIONS he’s trying to be serious but you keep making him laugh istg he has to kick u out each time

u still make him laugh when u pout-glare at him thru the glass

bro says he’s not the stereotypical cop but the moment u surprise him with donuts and coffee in the morning he will make out w u right then and there

even though yall dating he still won’t let u play with his equipment

but sometimes u grab his walkie talkie when he’s not looking and prank call the others

and his coworkers know by now they’re like “oh it’s daichis gf” and go along with it HAHAHAHA “this is alpha 1, daichi just contracted ligma, over.” “roger, but what’s ligma? over.” “*inhale* LIGMA-” *daichi takes the walkie talkie back*

his coworkers are chill lmaoooo they love u two as a couple THEY ARE VERY SUPPORTIVE they planned a surprise anniversary party of when u joined the force (unofficially)

the juniors tanaka and noya are jelly ooooo but they respect their captain <3

u loooooove hanging out w the starry-eyed new recruit hinata and he’s bouncing around asking u personal questions “how did you date the commander!!! what’s he like as a bf??” he also accidentally exposes how much daichi talks about u in the office before he drags him away and murders him off camera

he does get u a walkie talkie that’s just connected to his line, tho. for emergencies. it’s ur second phone basically that only has his number in it

daichi LOVES it when u massage him after he’s had a long day but his shoulders are stiff as a statue,,,he’s also super stronk and can carry u anywhere <333

IMAGINE HE HAS A POLICE DOG - he doesn’t, but he’ll get one of his buddies to bring u a k9 unit so u can pet it and when he sees how happy u are he considers getting one PLSSS IT WOULD FIT HIM HELPPP

bro is VERY strict on safety. bulletproof glass in yalls house. alarms + cameras everywhere. trackers on every device. underground bunker. (just kidding lol)

daichi teaches u self-defense and gets u a bejeweled taser for ur bday <333 MARRY THIS MAN RIGHT NOW OR I’LL-

in other words i love daichi and he is husband material WIFE ME UP BUDDY

househusband!oikawa

we are: girlboss sugar mommy

somehow you tamed this bish to becoming your obedient malewife

and by obedient i mean whiny but compliant

IS MORE ATTACHED TO YOUR BLACK CARD THAN TO YOU. I SAID IT. THE TRUTH.

sure, he’s pretty and gives affection sometimes but the only time he’s bein cute and snuggly w u is when a new fendi purse came out and he wants it

his specialty is cooking but he’s so lazy he’s all “just get the maid to do it”

please give ur workers a raise he’s so demanding

when you take him to ur business parties hes ALWAYS bragging about you and ur large house with this and that and his favorite: indoor hot tub. he always brings up the indoor hot tub.

only reason you bring him is cuz he’s pretty and he whines when you leave him alone for too long

yall cant even stay for too long - he’ll practically drag u out of the building and whining that it’s too hot and his suit is too stuffy and to call a limo

he’s not afraid to embarrass u if u dont give him what he wants and he will spit out food at a formal dinner if its not to his liking

probably in competition w househusbands! makki and mattsun about who gets the best house so he’s constantly begging u for an extension to the house “please babe!!! makki has-” “no.”

8/10 times throws tantrums in public and 1465/10 times throws tantrums in the house

he wants to cry for the sake of crying. one time he lost his shirt and he wouldn’t stop bawling for 15 min

please find him a hobby

crybaby . the moment u give him the glare of death it’s over. but he’s got a cute crying face which makes up for his annoying whimpering

like he made the mistake of throwing a temper tantrum in the mall only for you to glare at him with a look that said “we’re discussing this when we get home and you’re gonna get your ass beat” and walk away. immediately stopped what he was doing and he was running after u, sniffling and mumbling apologies

please humble him and have him sleep outside. the couch is too luxurious to banish him to. he made sure of it himself. it’s reclining and has charging ports. he will not learn his lesson that way

does NOT want you to get a pet or a kid or even another sugar baby/househusband - he wants to be the center of ur attention

speaking of which he HATES it when you work for too long or work overseas. when u come back he’ll pout at u and give u the petty silent treatment

don’t bother trying to comfort him he thrives off of it and he’ll keep going so u can keep paying attention to him. if u just ignore him back he’ll come crawling back to u. “WHY ARE YOU IGNORING ME IGNORING YOU?? DO YOU EVEN LOVE ME ANYMORE???”

one time yall got into a fight and he was all like “since ur being a rude mommy i’ll just find someone else !!!” inside u were like “oh god finally” but instead u said “okay”

ohmygod he panicked. he was rlly expecting for u to fight for him,,, but he doesn’t want to admit defeat first so he tries to go thru with it but you literally dont care. even when he has his chanel luggage packed and he’s standing by the door ur just like “ok bye bitch”

So he’s trying to stand by the door and wait for u to say that ur joking. ur not.

“fine! I’m leaving now!” “okay.” “...*sniffles*” “tooru, go.” “WAAAAH NO IM SORRY I DONT WANT TO-”

u knew this was going to happen sadly. u even hid the keys to all of the sports cars u own just in case he was actually going to go thru with it

tries to get in the gossip circle with the neighborhood trophy wives but they don’t think he’s cool enough. they like u though. they think ur hot asf and oikawa doesn’t like them no more bc theyre hitting on his ATM. but thanks to that u know all the gossip and shit even though u don’t ask for it

Every time u pass by a store where he thinks he wants something he’ll just cling to u and give the puppy dog eyes. like it could be out of nowhere and u see it and you’re like “where. which store.”

bro once he went luxury he never went back. he wouldn’t EVER step foot into a grocery store ever again congrats he’s been bimbo-ified

beat him with ur gucci belt pls it’s so funny

also please please PLEASE discipline him. tell him it’s NOT okay to just randomly purchase the entire swarovski store or to throw a party at ur house just bc he’s feeling petty about u being at work for too long. ofc he’ll bitch about it but you need to be firm

but don’t worry,,,he’ll get the idea when u take away black card privileges and slap him around (lovingly)

now he has to ask permission like a good boy. he’ll kneel and hug u and give a lil pout and whine

you got a bigass man child i’m sorry maam u should’ve picked tobio or ushi

ceo!kuroo

we are: secretary

bruh keeps it mostly professional during work hours

but that all gets shedded off like a snake when we on break

one minute he’s all “get these papers done by today or i swear on all that is holy i will destroy you” and then later he’s all “hey sweetheart wanna grab a cup of coffee”

flirty flirty FLIRTY FLIRTY AAAAA HES A MENACE

but you’re less than impressed bc y’know when the time clocks out and its time to go back to work he’s ruthless once more

HUMBLE HIM FOOL only when you’re on break though

will NOT stand for anyone else in the workplace bullyin u - NO WAY. only HIM

he’s got TONS and TONS of dirt on everyone in the office - NO ONE is safe so they wouldn’t even dare

RIP janet from accounting

that dumb bitch made the mistake of insulting u to ur face and in front of him. never heard from her again

it’s not even limited to the other employees - he’s not afraid to go off on a potential business partner if they dared disrespect you

bruh tries to call u on ur off days for the most randomest shit and to get ur attention

*picks up phone* “sir?” “ah! my favorite secretary ever! listen, i need you to grab my pens from my desk at the office and bring them to my place.” “...with all due respect, it’s 2 am, sir.”

but u have to comply with his ridiculous demands cuz he’s the bank

and he depends on u completely. as much as he hates to admit it - u have his schedules, itinerary, provide coffee, performance rates, stock info, you name it.

once u were out sick and he had the worst management - he’s not used to working without you

def tries to get some of ur workload off of u bc he’s worried that the stress of working for him made u sick + he doesn’t want to go thru scheduling again

prolly gets bored in meeting rooms and sends u little smirks and wiggles his eyebrows and weird looks while he’s sitting and ur standing in the corner like bruh pay attention

maybe sometimes he’s secretly makin fun of the presenter and doodling on his spare sticky note something funny to make u crack a smile

he’ll tease u for it of course “oh, secretary! you should be paying more attention! what would you do if this was important?” bruh i can multitask now keep airdropping me ur selfies i’m saving all of them (news flash: u dont save his dumbass selfies otherwise his ego will inflate too much)

sometimes likes to pull u aside from work to hug u - you say it’s highly unprofessional but he says it’s his stress reliever

you ALMOST got caught by one of the newbies and he was kabedon-ing you

he tries to play it off (since u were embarrassed too) but u know better,,,DO NOT LET HIM FORGET ABOUT IT he turns red and embarrassed every single time USE THIS TO UR ADVANTAGE !!

never goes into an elevator without you bruh is so attached to u n holds the doors open for you

but you have to open normal doors for him if he doesn’t know how it works (hint: manual doors. “why isn’t it opening on its own?” “sir, there’s a handle.” “but?? what does it do??”)

bruh acts like a dumbass sometimes so you can baby him :/// wtf man just because you’re rich doesn’t mean i’ll- ...wait...how much did you say…? that many zeros? HAND ME THAT FORK YES I’LL FEED YOU COME HERE- HERE COMES THE AIRPLANE BITCH

brings u to overseas trips and he spoils u too

no matter how much you insist that you’re ok he gives u a lot of luxurious items. “think of it as a bonus from me.” NOW YOU JUST HAVE A COLLECTION OF NICE SHOES/BAGS/JEWELRY AND HE LOVES IT WHEN YOU WEAR THEM TO WORK IT MAKES HIM SO HAPPY UGHHHHH

BRUH just a sugar daddy at this point “you have to look presentable for the next focus group so here’s a nice rolex watch” “sir, i don’t need-” “ah ah ah - it’s my treat.”

it’s pointless to refuse him but he still teases u for it like what???? “if i didn’t know any better, secretary, i’d say you’re just doing it for my money and not my fabulous looks and personality.” “exactly.” “hey!”

yall go for drinking parties a lot. whether with the whole branch or just the two of u

KARAOKE W KUROO AFTER A LONG DAY OF WORK <333 becomes a ritual between the two of u

he’s so silly when he’s drunk lmfaoooo goofy ass mf

but that’s only when it’s the two of u. he controls his alcohol around others and his uncool side is only for u <3

also ur the only one he trusts to take him back to his place and handle him

it’s the other way around too - when u drink a lot he looks after you <333

you have a higher tolerance than him and sometimes u have competitions between the two of u on who can drink more but then yall always end up shitfaced

HES the one who has a crush on you

you know the drill - gaslight gatekeep girlboss

he’ll do anything for u but wouldn’t ever admit it he simp

offers u the keys to his estate and offers for you to LIVE with him

bruh just marry me already ok WAIT WE’RE NOT EVEN DATING YOU NEED TO WORK ON THAT SIR-

he’s so awkward tryna confess to u,,,he may be this big hotshot ceo but he’s acting like a schoolgirl in love

probably prints u a confession when he asks u to go to the fax machine lmfao what a nerd

in other words ceo!kuroo is a nerd and you need to top him immediately get that bank

dog hybrid!bokuto

we are: owner

Husky-malamute breed!!! BEEG DOGGIE VERY HAPPY N DROOLY <333

OVERLY HYPER. JUMPS ON ANYONE AND U AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT

he’s well trained i swear but the moment he sees something of interest then i’m sorry you just lost him

please if a robber came in he wouldn’t even attack them he’d just tackle them w hugs

he loves loves loves snuggles <333 u busy? nope!!! hug time!!! cooking something?? oo lemme see!!! whoops look at all those tomatos on the ground. u got a deadline coming up and u really need to focus?? CUDDLE TIIIIIIME- w-wait - huh?? why are u shoving me off?? do you - do you not - huh?!?! WHY ARE YOU LOCKING ME OUT OF THE ROOM?? NO!!!! I LOVE YOU!!! IDK WHAT EXAMS ARE BUT I WANT CUDDLES!!! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME????!!!

the WORST things u could ever do to him is leave him and call him a bad boy

HE CRIES ON THE SPOT </3 HOW COULD YOU </3

soso bummed when u go out of the house without him </333 waits by the door patiently waiting for u to come back </333 sob sob

the moment he hears the door unlock he LEAPS and his tail is wagging like CRAZY

he is SO STRONG. almost always knocks u over whenever he jumps on u

destroys EVERY toy u bring him. u leave him for 5 seconds and there’s stuffing all over the floor and whatever u brought him is nonexistent

tugs on the leash when u walk so much that it SNAPS

loves romping w the other dogs in the dog park but he needs to tone down on his friendliness he almost killed a lil orange chihuahua

gets distracted by EVERYTHING. ooh, squirrel! oo, butterfly! OOO HUMAN CHILD!! MUST EAT!!!

ok while he might be friendly, he still gets super super jealous. you both were outside and u were petting the neighborhood black cat and bruh almost swallowed his head

which u thought was weird bc the two are normally friends and are pretty nice around each other

so now he’s more feisty around him and any other cat that’d get ur attention

If it was a person, then that’s another thing. He’d be very friendly at first but then slowly realize that ur attention is more directed on them than him. then he’d go ballistic

but when u scold him for practically assaulting the poor dude and call him a bad boy,,,he’s lost it

u have to lock him in the other room and he’s crying and whimpering, scratching at the door. all he wanted to do was protect u from that bad bad man who took away his owner’s attention !!!

def snarls at the dude next time he comes into ur house/apartment...dude never came back

“GRRR” “AAAA GET UR FRIGGIN DOG B-” “he don bite” YES IT DO GET UR-”

doggie bokuto rlly tries to be slick...it doesn’t work. like he tries to do that thing when he’s a total demon towards the guy but then act like an angel around u but it doesnt work bc he’s not smooth

doggie intelligence: 2 IQ. one time u got him a puzzle box and hid a treat in it but bruh couldnt figure it out just straight up monched the entire puzzle simply bc he smelled his fav bbq treat in it

speaking of intelligence - he only knows how to say a few words like ur name and incomplete sentences. speaks in barks and whines and sometimes a word

SO BIG THAT HE GRABS FOOD FROM THE TABLE WHEN YOU’RE NOT LOOKING

u had some delicious beef steak? oh dear, where did it go? there’s ur puppy kou with steak sauce all over his lips

big fan of hiking trips, sports, literally anything that involves going out

he LOVES getting dirty outside playing. boi cant control himself from rolling around in the mud

hates baths at first but then he likes how u spray the water on him and giggles awww he likes bath time now

we all know he’s not the brightest pup of the pack but,,,he’s somehow psychic. he knows when ur taking him to the vet

HE THROWS A BIG FUSS ALL THE TIME - sometimes he tries to hide but his huge tail under the couch gives it away

and he knows when ur thinking of taking him on a walk. he also begs u to take him outside by settling his head in ur lap and pouting until u give him what he wants

he likes the big ol doggie sweaters/pjs u buy him...but he always ruins them. no matter how much u buy him, they’re all ruined. he complains how scratchy it is and it feels weird on him

knows LOTS of tricks but if u teach him more than what he already knows he will forget one of them he’s like a damn pokemon

he feels ur emotions :((( if ur mood is down his tail droops :(( and he gives u cuddles and tries to make u feel better

he even likes to make a fool out of himself and be silly if it makes u laugh :((( he’s so precious

in other words i love doggy bokuto

pirate!ushijima

we are: kidnapped

ah yes we’re are captives of the most fearsome pirates of the seas: shiratorizawa

just so you know, tendou was the instigator. he was all “let’s kidnap a noble’s kid and get the ransom money!” (whether you actually are a noble or not is up to you)

thing is, nobody’s willing to pay (if you aren’t a noble) or the pirates really pissed off the folks in charge and are now doing a manhunt

so yeah you aren’t going back anytime soon

but he’s a pretty good sport about it - very hospitable

he notices the little things u like and gets them for u <333 sighs <333

he saw you reading that book? wow look at that, there’s suddenly a stack of them and the same genre he saw you reading

but you definitely shouldn’t test him. he’s SUPER scary when it comes down to it

you saw how ruthless he was with the rogues that had dared to challenge him on sea

mf made them walk the plank

you help on the ship bc u wanna be useful and also shirabu keeps being mean

he asks u to teach the crew how to read cuz theyre dumb as shit and only know water and treasure

speaking of treasure - when he leaves u on the ship to explore a cave, he gets u really pretty jewelry <33 anything u ask for

“oh, welcome back captain. how was your mission?” “i brought back a few trinkets i thought you might like.” *reveals whole chest of priceless gems* “are they to your liking? if not, we can set sail for something else that might interest you.” “I-”

bruh got a pet eagle - u ask the crew and they dont even know how tf it happened

hell, even he doesn’t know how it happened wtf. “oh. one day it flew down to me and i fed it. that’s all.” wtf

equivalent to diluc’s bird - he didn’t even give it a name so he gives u the honors

U name him rigatoni (you got a great naming sense btw)

oh my god oh my god oh my god HE TRIES TO PROTECT U WHEN PPL WERE TRYNA INVADE THE SHIP

it was the first thing he did no cap - burst into ur room and scoops u up <33333

“what the-” “we need to get you to safety. we are under attack.” and holds u close to his chest AAAHSIDHFPSDHFN OH MY LORD YES

HAS THE TEAM GIVE U SELF DEFENSE LESSONS AFTER THAT

tendou tries to give u a sword but ushi says no “she could hurt herself.”

“but ushiwaka! we can teach her not to hurt herself” “...it’s my orders.” “c’mon, be more honest, ushiwaka! what’s the real reason?”

he goes quiet then looks at u “...i’ll always be there to help. she’ll have me.” AOISHSDHFSNDF

HELPPPPP SIOJFDSKFJP HES SO CHARMING AND HE DOESNT EVEN TRY

but the rest of the crew are like “then what’s the point”

but tendou sneaks u a dagger just to be safe

sorry ur apart of the crew now - but they’re like a family even if they did kidnap u

oh whatever your life before wasn’t as cool as this (no offense)

they are given orders to protect u at all costs

speaking of which - ushi isn’t all that great w guns

almost blew his own head off tryna figure out how it works before reon snatched it from him

he brings you with him to towns and cities and he likes taking u to the markets to get you stuff

ushijima tell me your love language is gift-giving without telling me your love language is gift-giving-

he finds out you’re pretty good at bargaining and brings you onshore a lot more

is mesmerized at how you absolutely BERATE the merchant who was tryna rip you off like sis where is this violence coming from??? he loves it??

he also likes to stop by some pretty islands and imagines just settling down in such a nice place w you <333 SIGHS <333 VERY <333 LOUDLY <333

no matter how much he likes you...he will NOT let you drive the boat under any circumstances </3 its his livelihood c’mon man

whenever you have to stay on the ship while he’s away he sends rigatoni to give messages and the two of u talk thru messages

speaking of which rigatoni is fierce and can definitely sink his talons and his sharp beak into any bastard that dares get near you while the captain is away

wakatoshi “swimming is for pussies” ushijima - he’s water resistant

bruh so powerful he walks on water

second coming of christ who

IM JUST KIDDING he does swim but we hardly ever see it

legends say (tendou says) he looks rlly awkward doing it and only knows how to doggie paddle

speaking of our homeboy tendou - he loooves spooking the team (and especially you) with scary stories . don’t worry tho - this is all a ploy to get the beeg pirate husband to comfort u at night ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) he is ur wingman u can count on him. but his suggestions are ridiculous

“Jump off the deck and see if he’ll catch you!” um excuse me- THOU SHALT NOT PUT BIG HUSBAND TO THE TEST

he’s got good intentions...i think…

but everyone literally knows he would dive after you

in other words pirate!ushijima is a softie at heart but goddamn he probably secretly has a pet shark so dont test him or u goin overboard

mafia leader!kita

we are: associate from different group/family

kita highly respects u and yall have been acquainted since u were young with the alliance of ur families

so in a way ur childhood friends but yall do have lil bit of friendly rivalry a bit

arranged marriage whuuuutttt...yeah thats what happened but u love him <3

nobody else knows about ur arranged marriage but you two

POLITE GENTLEMAN <333 !!! HNNNNNNNN his granny raised him right even tho he’s a mafia leader

RICH BOY RICH BOY RICH BOY- ALWAYS DRESSES DASHINGLY AND SMELLS GREAT MMMMMM

he owns the majority of the underground casinos

and has lots of connections with others. countless, might i add.

you on the other hand specialize as an arms dealer so he cherishes your services the most

prob has the traditional tattoos allllll over his back and shoulders w like a dragon or sm and def a fox or kitsune

when u two were little he asked ur favorite flower and GOT THAT TATTOOED ON HIS BACK <3 probably secretly has your initials hidden in there somewhere

u both have a silent understanding of each other and he talks to u more than he does anyone

before he used to smoke but once he figured out that you didn’t like the smell of cigarettes he quit just like that

his underlings, the miya twins are so confused on how kita switches from totally brutal and ruthless to so soft around u

they can’t tease him for it, though, cuz he’d pulverize them

but they want to know more about u,,,you mysterious enigma,,,but kita would kill them if they dared asked about you

so they go to inarizaki’s most secretive informant/cyber mercenary, suna rintarou

and suna knows all about you. he saw you one time and he was curious about who you were and is now rlly scared of you because he dug too deep and you’ve got LOTS of history

he doesn’t dare tell the twins what he found no matter how much they bug him

until they bribe him at just the right price

and when aran finds out and tells kita?? ohhh boy it’s lights out for all three of them

oh my god ,,, would kill for u he loves u so much

one time you were kidnapped and held hostage

bro saw red

MAFIA ANNIHILATION SPEEDRUN ANY % NO GLITCH

he got world record time

wiped out the entire conglomerate behind it - nothing and nobody left behind after that

and of course, made sure you were safe.

yandere? ofc not...i mean...just look at him...so innocent...he would never...sharpening that knife...with splattered blood all over him...

is now joined at the hip with u,,,no matter how much you tell him you’ll be fine now and that you have tons of reliable bodyguards he won’t let it go

“don’t you have to go back to your place?” “this is my duty as both a fellow associate and your future husband.” aww,,,ur so sweet...but BRUH PLEASE GO HOME ARAN IS DOING EVERYTHING OVER THERE

makes sure to build a headquarters DIRECTLY NEXT TO YOURS so that its faster

and it’s not long until he just signs a deal to merge ur factions together (since yall getting married anyways)

and oh my god...ur underground wedding is SO SO PRETTY

absolutely DOESN’T care if he’s smuggling jewels from different countries - he’s having your ring CUSTOM MADE and the way you want it. “the diamond is too small? sure thing, darling, i’ll have it 7 times that size.”

makes sure everything is perfect in ur wedding <333 its very extravagant and even though its not really his style he’ll do anything for you

he absolutely WOULD take your last name if you wanted. FIGHT ME ON THIS

takes you to his private island for ur honeymoon so that the two of you don’t have to worry about work

meanwhile aran is scrambling around the place trying to cover for the both of you

he’s a VERY romantic husband - NEVER takes off his ring even for security. he says its practically a part of him just like you are <3

the ring has a built in tracker connected to an app. possessive? noooo...

in other words this escalated pretty quickly but i aint complaining if it gets me married to kita

--

--EXTRA EXTRA!! other characters’ roles!!--

officer!daichi:

karasuno squadron consists of:

cops: daichi (duh), asahi (mostly patrol, he hates confrontation), tanaka & noya (mostly accompanied by ennoshita), hinata & kageyama

investigators/detectives: sugawara, ennoshita, yamaguchi, tsukishima, kiyoko, yachi

surveillance: narita, kinoshita, tsukishima too

househusband!oikawa:

makki and mattsun are also househusbands

iwaizumi is a malewife fhasodjkasdhf-

ceo!kuroo:

lev is the newbie that walked in on u two-

janet still a bitch

kenma is his fellow ceo buddy. he also owns a multimillion dollar company and kuroo’s and his have a sort-of contract so you see him a lot in meetings

yaku is like one of the top performing managers so whenever yall have branch meetings he’s there

dog hybrid!bokuto:

kuroo is the black neighborhood cat bokuto almost murdered cough cough i did that on purpose yes i did

kenma is also another neighborhood cat. you don’t see him around that often but now that bokuto got jealous he stays far away.

hinata is the orange chihuahua i briefly mentioned

i couldn’t decide whether akaashi would stay human and be his previous owner or also be a cat/dog/owl. so lets say he’s ur human friend that is your bestie and comes over a lot. bokuto likes him, though. still gets jealous a bit.

pirate!ushijima:

tendou is practically is right hand man

the rest of the team have something to give idk how to explain pirate team members okay-

BUT BUT BUT- they do have sea rivals which are the seijoh pirates. you ran into them one day and oikawa thought you were kidnapped (you were, but you liked it there) so he tried to do you justice and failed miserably. ushijima ragdolled him into the ocean when he flirted w you.

mafia!kita:

the twins are something akin to mercenaries basically. or just plain lackeys.

suna is an informant/cyber mercenary. he gathers information about ppl which is how he knew about you. and he’s a hacker lol.

aran is his second-in-command, omimi + ginjima are his bodyguards

Prompt 30: “Let me show you how to do it.”

non-canonical timeskip.

word count: 1.3k

content warning: established relationship, fem!reader (he refers to you as his girlfriend), open relationship, dom!ennoshita, switch!reader, kinda sub tanaka? phone sex, teasing, praise kink, fingering

also featuring: tanaka (no, i am not sorry. this was fun.)

i swear to god y’all are trying to kill me.

Ennoshita was always a little too kind hearted for his own good. Yes, he could be harsh, but when someone asked to borrow something that was his, he couldn’t help but let them.

So when Tanaka was horny posting at 3 am, he was more than happy to let you FaceTime the man and offer him some relief.

“You sure this is okay?” Tanaka asked. You resisted the urge to look over at Ennoshita, who was lounging on his desk chair scrolling through his phone.

“You really gonna ask that now?” you laughed. “What I say goes.” Tanaka’s head tipped back and he groaned.

“Fuck. I like when you talk like that.”

“Yeah? Show me.”

His face screwed up into a wince as he fucked into his fist faster.

“There you go,” you said. “See how fun it is when you do what you’re told?”

“Shit,” he groaned as his head tipped forward. “I wish I could touch you.”

Ennoshita scoffed, making you smile before clapping your free hand over your mouth.

“What the hell was that?” Tanaka said, hand slowing.

Ennoshita stood and approached you, not bothering to lift his gaze from his phone as he leaned into the camera frame.

“Hey,” he said. Tanaka let out a shocked sound as you hid your face in embarrassed laughter.

“What the fuck is going on?” Tanaka yelled.

“You didn’t think I’d let her play unsupervised, did you?”

“Fuck, Ennoshita. That’s messed up.”

“Is it? You’re the one jacking off to my girlfriend.”

Tanaka was silent and Ennoshita laughed. He gestured for you to scoot over and adjusted the camera. He settled behind you with you between his legs.

“You wanted to touch her,” he said, offering his fingers to you. You took them into your mouth and swirled your tongue around. Tanaka inhaled sharply as Ennoshita pulled them out and brought them down between your legs. “Let me show you how to do it.”

He began circling your clit quickly, making you gasp and grab his leg. You could feel him smile against your ear.

“Keep your legs open, love. I want him to be able to see everything.” You nodded hurriedly and laid your head back on Ennoshita’s shoulder. He laughed. “God, are you already close? Did he turn you on that much?”

You couldn’t respond. His hand felt so much better than your own, strong and sure and somehow always aware of where to touch you.

“Why’d you stop touching yourself, Tanaka? Isn’t this what you wanted? Look how fucked out she is because of you.” You glanced at the screen and Tanaka looked stunned. He had stopped his movements, but he didn’t look any less turned on. “Don’t you want to watch him, darling?” Ennoshita mumbled in your ear. “Why don’t you ask nicely?”

“Tanaka,” you breathed. His eyes widened. “Please.”

Ennoshita stopped moving his hand and you whined.

“Please what? Be specific.”

“Please show me. I want to watch you touch yourself.”

Ennoshita smiled against your hair and slid two fingers inside of you. You swore and squeezed your eyes shut.

“Good girl,” he said. “You heard her, Tanaka.”

Tanaka took a deep breath and readjusted his camera so you could see him. He hesitated, then began slowly pumping his cock and staring at the screen.

“Fuck, you look good,” he said. You shot him a lazy smile.

Ennoshita curled his fingers and drove them into you faster. You let out a surprised gasp and grabbed his bicep. He didn’t let up on the pace, instead choosing to grab your arm and shift it behind your back.

“You close, love?” he asked. You nodded, fist tightening behind you. “Good girl. What do you think, Tanaka? Should we let her come?”

Tanaka looked completely fucked out and stopped for a moment, considering the question.

“Not yet,” he said. Ennoshita withdrew his fingers and you let out a pathetic noise.

“Oh, hush,” he teased. “It’s not polite to come first when we have a guest.”

You slapped his leg lightly and he laughed. You could feel the pressure of his cock behind you and, thankfully he seemed to be pulling down his waistband.

“Well, Tanaka. Want to see how well she takes it?” he asked. Tanaka’s eyebrows nearly raised off his head as Ennoshita lifted your hips up and laid back.

“Show him how you fuck yourself, darling. Come on.” You hesitated, hovering in Ennoshita’s lap. You were still facing the camera and felt both men’s eyes on you, but you had just been so close. You needed to see it through.

You lined Ennoshita up with your entrance and sunk down, barely muffling a moan.

“That’s it, baby,” he said, running a hand over your hip. “I’ve got you. Just show Tanaka how good you are.” You nodded and circled your hips, forcing a sharp breath from Ennoshita. You tried to establish a pace that your shaky legs could keep up with, but it didn’t take long for you to realize it wouldn’t be enough. You had been so close, and now you were inching toward the edge again, not quite able to tip over.

“Chikara,” you breathed.

“What do you need, love?” He caressed your legs.

“I need more. Please.” Your face burned as you said it. He would help you. He knew how to get you there. He chuckled.

“That desperate, huh? What do you think, Tanaka? Does she deserve more?”

Tanaka’s face was screwed up in a blissed-out expression that would have made you smile if you weren’t so desperate for him to hurry up and answer.

“Just fuck her, Ennoshita. She asked nicely.”

In that moment Tanaka became one of your favorite people. Ennoshita laughed again and began readjusting himself on the bed.

“Fine by me. Sit up, love,” he said. He shifted so he was laying sideways and pulled you down to his chest. “There you go. You okay?”

You nodded and pressed a kiss to his lips. You could feel him smile as he lined himself up and pushed inside of you. You moaned lightly into his mouth. He rocked you in his lap a few times, drawing long, steady sighs from you before pressing his face into your hair.

“Don’t hide your face,” he whispered. “I want him to be able to hear you.” You nodded again and he braced his feet against the bed. He wrapped his arms tightly around you and snapped his hips up. You let out an embarrassingly loud noise and had to hold yourself up with an elbow.

“There you go. Good girl.” Ennoshita’s breathing was unsteady as he fucked up into you, drawing sound after sound out of your throat. You had been so close that he was able to push you toward the edge easily. You could hear lewd wet sounds and Tanaka’s groaning from your phone speaker and it was fucking with your head.

“Fuck, I’m close,” you managed to gasp. You could feel Ennoshita smile.

“Hear that, Tanaka? Want to see how pretty she looks when she comes?”

Tanaka swore and told him to fuck off. Ennoshita laughed and fucked into you faster.

“Show him how good you are,” he muttered. “Come on. You can do it love.”

You buried your face into his neck and let out a long moan before your body tensed. You swore and held him tight to you, eyes squeezing shut and brain fogging over. You could distantly hear Tanaka swearing and letting out a groan, and Ennoshita chucked as he fucked you through your orgasm, only slowing when your moans became whimpered gasps.

“Good girl,” he mumbled, pressing a kiss to your shoulder as he pulled out of you. He wasn’t done himself, but he didn’t seem to care.

“How was that?” he asked, gently shifting you onto the bed as he sat up.

“Jesus,” Tanaka gasped. Ennoshita chuckled.

“I take it you had a good time. If she’s willing to do that again you’re welcome to it.”

“Are you serious?”

“Why not?” He leaned forward towards the phone. “Just remember who really made her come, Tanaka. At the end of the day, she’s mine.”

“Wai—”

Ennoshita ended the call and turned back around.

“I’m not done with you yet.”

Hii! Can I have an anime match-up for haikyuu please! (I hope this isn’t too much but thank you)

My name is Soleigh. I’m an intp, Capricorn. I’m bisexual but I lean more towards men. I wear glasses, lots of oversized shirts or hoodies. I have black straight hair down to my shoulders, I have tan skin with a few moles on my face, I have a grunge/skater aesthetic if that makes sense. Also I struggle with eczema (a skin condition with lots of rashes where ever on the body which makes my skin dry quite insecure about it)

Personality wise: I’m an introvert, a lot of my friends think I tend to be really quiet and reserved but when I’m comfortable I can talk on and on about a show or a movie for example and when I talk I accidentally talk too loudly. I also have adhd which I get easily distracted by a lot of things which is why I’m not good at school 😅 and I’m easily tired and lazy.

I love: drawing, video games, sleeping, eating lots of food, movie nights, snacks, anime, cartoons, photography, traveling, convenience store shopping (for snacks and drinks) and cold weather or just cloudy weather and slightly rainy weather.

I dislike: hot weather (I tend to have breakouts on my skin more during summer), bugs, big crowds, spicy food, math, pe.

Hey, you’re fine. Sorry it took time, we’re just going slowly to make sure we don’t miss anything.

For Haikyuu your matchup is Ryunosuke Tanaka

This loud-mouth mofo is perfect for any situation. When you’re in a quiet mood he’s the first to fill in the silence. You’re now hyper and rambling passionately? Tanaka will match your energy and anything that makes you happy automatically makes him happy. He might look cold and mean but he’s just a softie like that. That’s one thing you both have in common.

Dates with Tanaka are spontaneous, you never know when he’s about to drag you away or to where. Your favourite is late night drives to maccies where you both have a mini photoshoot under the street light in the car park. For a special day, he gifts you a scrapbook he’s attempted to make with all your photographs.

Tanaka is really observant and notices things you don’t even realise you’re doing especially when you unconsciously scratch at your eczema. He’s there to hold your hand away from the flare ups. He hates seeing you in pain so he’s grabbing your relief cream before you even think of it. He applies it with soft strokes in case he hurts you more and bandages you up securely. Will hold you after and comfort you through those days you feel insecure because of it.

Off-Kilter (Haikyuu!!)

Primary Universe

@veryblushyswitch Thank you! I'm having a lot of fun writing them! (It's kind of weird seeing your old picture there now, lol.) Anyway, thank you for the fun prompt! I went with Kageyama as the lee because that boy deserves all the tickles. Enjoy! ^^

~

The gym door slid open, and all Noya could think was, finally. Only it wasn’t Asahi, like he’d been expecting. It was Kageyama. What made his arrival even more out of place was that Hinata wasn’t bounding in ahead of or after him.

Still, practice was practice.

“Hey, Kageyama,” he called, drawing the first-year’s attention. “Grab a ball and help me practice my receives.”

Kageyama blinked. “Sure.”

Where is Asahi? Noya wondered. The only reason he was here at this ungodly hour of the morning was because the ace had asked him to help him practice serves. For that matter, if Kageyama was here, where was Hinata? It was unusual for the two of them not to arrive together.

Just as the setter was grabbing a ball out of the basket after shedding his club jacket, Tanaka entered, yawning. Noya stared at him. He never arrived early. What was going on today?

Well, the more the merrier.

“Tanaka! You, too. Get a ball and start serving. Let’s go!”

“It is way too early for you to be this hyper, my dude,” Tanaka mumbled good-naturedly, following the libero’s orders.

“Blame Asahi. He said he’d be here and he’s not. I’ve got a bone to pick with him and it’s making me antsy.”

“Uh-huh.”

“Noya,” Kageyama called from the opposite side of the net. “Ready?”

Noya nodded, getting into position. “Bring it on.”

For the next several minutes, Noya practiced his receiving while Kageyama and Tanaka practiced their serves. The latter was getting much better; he’d even begun to form a pre-serve routine, which Noya found hilarious. But it was effective, so he wasn’t complaining. Their setter, though, was off his game today. His serves were consistent in getting over the net, but not in landing where they were meant to, which made Noya have to work even harder to receive them. Again, he wasn’t complaining; it was good practice. But the libero did have to wonder what exactly was going on in this gym this morning. Everything felt…off, somehow.

And Asahi still wasn’t showing up. Noya would give him a good scolding for that later, for sure.

Finally, after about fifteen minutes, Tanaka tossed a serve over the right side of the net that Noya received perfectly. But directly after his serve, Kageyama served as well, evidently having not realized the libero wasn’t ready for him yet. Still, Noya made a valiant effort by lunging to the left side of the court and thrusting out his arm.

“Rolling thunder!” he yelled dramatically, barely catching the ball’s landing with the top of his hand. It bounced once, then landed outside the court a few feet away.

“Sorry,” Kageyama called. “That was my bad.”

“Dude, you’re all sorts of off-kilter this morning,” Noya observed, getting to his feet with a grin. He put his hands on his hips. “Did you not get enough sleep or something?”

“Our royal highness needs his beauty rest,” Tanaka teased.

Kageyama bristled. “Shut up! I got enough sleep. I’m just not energized yet.”

“It’s because you and Hinata didn’t race your butts off trying to get here before the sun this morning, huh?”

The setter didn’t deny it.

Noya shrugged, ducking under the net to join them on their side of the court. “That’s okay. We’ll help you wake up. We can run laps around the gym.”

Tanaka groaned. “Noyaaaa, why do you have to be like that?”

“What? Running laps is important exercise. Besides, it’s probably about time we switched things up anyway. The others will be here eventually. It would be good to have a head start; show them what sleeping in gets them.” When neither of his teammates moved, Noya reached forward to grab each of their wrists and start pulling. “Come on, you lazy bums. Let’s go. Just a few laps, come on.”

Tanaka groaned but eventually gave in. Kageyama started jogging, but not very quickly.

Noya laughed. “You’re both so slow! How about this – if I get my laps in before you I’ll make you do finger push-ups at the end.”

With that, the libero took off, Tanaka right behind him. “You can’t tell me what to do, you little spiky-haired brat! I’m a second-year, same as you!”

“Doesn’t matter! Everyone knows I’m the team’s star. You gotta listen to me if you want to get better!”

“I’ll show you!”

The second-years raced around the gym, blazing past Kageyama once, twice, and then a third time before finally completing their five laps. Despite Noya’s threat, the setter didn’t seem to be in any hurry.

Pumped up from the race, both Noya and Tanaka barreled towards the first-year, yelling at the top of their lungs. Kageyama turned but had no time to react before they were on him, tackling him to the floor of the gym. The libero then recalled a play from Hinata’s book and smirked, starting to poke up and down his side.

Kageyama giggled immediately, unable to hold back despite how much he wished he could. “Ah! No!”

“Wake up, Kageyama,” Noya teased.

“No, dohohon’t!”

Tanaka grinned like the Tasmanian Devil and joined in, skipping over poking and going straight to digging into his ribs. “Come on, bro! You can’t be that sluggish without Hinata! Wake up!”

“Stop!” Kageyama pleaded, smiling uncontrollably. He tried to sit up and push them away, but they each grabbed a shoulder and pushed him back down, keeping him in place while they tickled him gently. “Guys!”

Noya smirked. “You know, watching you get stuck in the door of that bus was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.”

“Ugh, lehehehet it go alreadyehehehehe!”

“No kidding! He couldn’t even move,” Tanaka agreed. “It was hilarious!”

“S-Stahahap! D-Don’t tihihickle me!”

The second-years exchanged glances, grinning wickedly at each other and then at Kageyama. Without a word, they each went all in, grabbing at whatever ticklish spots they could reach on his torso as he jerked and started thrashing beneath them, giggles turning to laughter.

“Nohohohohoho! Stahahahap it! Dohohohohon’t – nohohohohohohoho!” The setter squealed, shoving desperately at the hands digging into his stomach. He kicked his legs frantically. “Nohohoya, Tanaka, stahahahahahahahap!”

“Are you awake yet?” Noya asked, smiling wide at his younger teammate.

“Yehehehehes, I’m awahahahahake!”

Tanaka hummed. “Are you suuuure?”

Kageyama couldn’t stop giggling to save his life, and it was embarrassing him. How pathetic was he, being this ridiculously sensitive to the lightest touch? He tried to roll onto his side but only succeeded in giving Tanaka better access to his lower back and spine, making him flop right back down. “Ahahahahahaha, stahahahahahap! Plehehehehehease!”

“All right, I guess that’s enough,” Noya said, removing his fingers and sitting back, proud of the work they’d done. “Feeling a little more energized now?”

“Ugh…y-yeah, whatever,” Kageyama said with a groan, sitting up. A flash of orange caught his eye, and when he turned to look over Tanaka’s shoulder he saw Hinata standing there, eyes bright and smile wide, looking like he wanted to run a million laps. The setter’s eyes widened. “Hinata!”

“Are you tickling him? Can I join?” Hinata asked, not wasting any time.

Kageyama scrambled to his feet. “No, no! They’re not – you can’t – no!” He turned on his heel and sprinted away as the tiny redhead leaped at him, fingers wiggling and already laughing for the both of them. “Stay away! Hinata, no! No! Back off!”

Noya and Tanaka got to their feet as well, grinning at the two of them sprinting around the court, Kageyama deftly escaping Hinata’s speed only by making sudden, sharp u-turns as he ran, throwing the little decoy off.

“Well,” Tanaka said, “I see he has no problem running laps now.”

Noya chuckled. “Hinata certainly is a good motivator for him, that’s for sure.”

“Hey guys,” a new voice entered the mix, and they turned to see one of the third-years enter the gym. “Sorry I’m late.”

“Asahi!” Noya snapped, marching up to the much taller ace, suddenly remembering why he wanted to release his pent-up energy in the first place. “You told me to be here at five! Five! In the morning! What time is it now?”

Asahi held up his hands defensively. “I’m sorry, I overslept—”

“Do you know what I’ve had to put up with while I’ve been waiting for your butt to get here? These underclassmen are impossible!”

Tanaka held up a finger. “Uh, hello, I’m a second-year just like you.”

Across the gym, Hinata shrieked as Kageyama suddenly turned around and caught him around the waist, shoving him to the floor and hooking his fingers into his ribs. “Ah! Nohohohohohoho fahahahahair, Kahahahageyama!”

Noya kept shouting at Asahi. “It took me nearly thirty minutes to get Kageyama fired up enough to practice properly, and now Hinata comes bursting in here and making me look like a fool!”

Asahi blinked. “Noya, I said I’m sorry—”

“And another thing…!”

Tanaka sighed, turning to leave everyone at it while he cleaned up the volleyballs spread out around the court from their earlier practice. Might as well, he thought. This could take a while.
