Din Trying to Flirt - Headcanons
Tumblr media
main masterlist • din djarin masterlist
Tumblr media
Din Djarin, bless his heart, doesn’t know a single thing about flirting.
But once he’s met and gotten to know you, something... changes. Suddenly, he wants to know how. He wants to try.
The hands under those gloves get a little sweaty when he even attempts the smallest gesture that could be considered “flirting.”
That gesture? Is just his helmet looking in your direction for a second longer than usual.
This is why Din’s first step in flirting comes with the non-verbals.
Din will tilt his helmet at you when he thinks you’re looking extraordinarily good, lean an arm against the wall just above his head whenever you’re talking in the hull, and let his gloved fingertips “accidentally” brush against yours in passing.
For a man who’s never flirted before? He gets surprisingly good at these little gestures. But he knows that’s not enough.
Taking on the verbal part of flirting is even harder than Din imagined it would be. He freezes up any time he starts to think about it.
“You... you, uh, you look—decent.”
You didn’t take that one so well.
It’s a learning curve for Din. He’d be embarrassed if you found out how he practiced to himself under his breath at night, reciting the compliments and trying to pinpoint the moments when he could get something witty yet honest out.
He gets his first big opportunity when you land on a planet that’s unfamiliar to you. It’s got large plains, speckled with colorful flowers that lead into the town where you’re headed to gather up some supplies.
“It’s beautiful here,” you say.
“Yeah,” Din agrees. “I’m... quite familiar with beauty.” He’d gestured with his hand to you, and upon seeing the way you looked up at him with such pleasant surprise, Din knew he finally succeeded—especially when you began to stutter in a shy manner.
That gives Din the confidence boost he really needs.
He starts to mixture the verbals with the non-verbals, standing behind you to help with your work while he mumbles reassurances in your ear, brushing wisps of hair out of your face as he praises you for your strength in a fight, and so on.
Soon, Din doesn’t even get nervous when he flirts. It’s as natural to him as just having a conversation with you—especially since you’ve been reciprocating for some time, now.
When you finally get into a relationship, Din only gets more flirtatious. He compliments you all the time, whenever he can, no matter how inconvenient the timing may be.
“Your voice is as soothing as music, cyar’ika.”
“Din! Focus on getting the Crest away from these Imps!”
The truth is, Din doesn’t necessarily like flirting. He just likes making you feel as good about yourself as he feels about you.
Because Din would make himself learn how to do anything and everything in the galaxy if it means he gets to make you smile.

Shh
Boyfriend!Kuroo x F!Reader (feat. Kenma/Nekoma)
Genre: fluff, smut
Prompt: “you better be quiet, princess”
Warnings: punishment, vibrating toys, overstimulation, oral sex (both receiving), degradation, public masturbation, choking, swearing, voyeurism, lingerie, name calling (slut, daddy, master)
Words: 10.4k
A/N: This is a College!AU! where Nekoma is Kuroo’s college team, therefore all characters have been aged up! I don’t see Kuroo as a fuckboy sex god, but I do think he knows exactly what he’s doing in the bedroom.
---
Summary: After your boyfriend Kuroo finds out his team will be having a dinner party after their first day at the National Tournament, you offer a little extra motivation. Little did you know, you’d be suffering in a deafening silence before the night ends.
---
Spending time with your long term boyfriend Kuroo has been your source of comfort, happiness, and simplicity. He’s an attentive lover, so much so that you wonder if he lives inside your brain, accurately reading your every thought. The pair of you met in high school during your second year and shortly became a couple afterwards, adored by your peers. As loyal as they come, Kuroo is loved by all who meet him. He has always motivated you throughout all your days, easy and difficult, helping you grow alongside him. Every morning that you wake up and pry your sluggish body out of bed to leave for school, every extra unnecessary purchase you decline yourself, every assignment you force yourself to finish is all for the sake of becoming a stronger partner for your accomplished boyfriend. He makes every inconvenience an opportunity and his ability to change the mood of a situation amazes you. That’s why it comes as no surprise to you when he’s able to create chaos within you at a moment’s notice.
He’s no stranger to fabricating playful competitions between the two of you which result in complete and utter pleasure for you, usually. The way he tempts and taunts you ever so slightly for weeks on end allowing you no release creates a hunger within you so insatiable even Kuroo himself can’t deny it. He knows exactly which buttons to press to make your face flush a bright rosy pink. How to conjure a heat between your thighs like magic at the will of his speech. Knowing he doesn’t even have to touch you to make you frustrated gives him an immense amount of pleasure. He loved corrupting you into the kinky succubus you’ve become, thanks to his overwhelming talents. You boast that your boyfriend is an absolute god in the bedroom, the best you’ve ever had, since he’s had a lot of practice with you. So when he creates bets and games that end in sinful pleasure, you can’t help but accept his offer and gamble with your body in hopes of a sweet reward.
---
“Babe, you’ll never guess what coach just texted us!” says a wide eyed Kuroo, leaning next to you on the bed to reveal blue and grey chat bubbles from the Nekoma volleyball group chat.
You read the latest text from Coach Nekomata announcing that they will be having a team dinner following their first day at Nationals, followed by excited texts from the other boys asking if there will be meat. Typical.
“Wow, that sounds like it’ll be really fun! You’ll deserve it after your match tomorrow,” you say, excited for your boyfriend.
“It sounds like a good time, but I had other things in mind as a celebration instead,” he says in a low voice, smirking and putting his hand on your thigh.
“Noooo sir,” you snicker, removing his hand. “It’s getting late and you need to get plenty of rest. We don’t have time for any of that tonight.”
“Is that so? Daddy wants to win tomorrow and in order to do that, I need to relieve some of this stress. You’ll be a good girl and get on your knees for me, won’t you?”
The look in his eyes is dark and moody while the corner of his mouth turns upwards in a sadistic smirk. You knew this means he has a strong desire to be pleased and won’t be satiated until he’s been properly taken care of by his submissive slut. You also knew this was the best time to tease him and make him even more aggressive with you, but tonight was different. The usual hunger that constantly dwells within you has dissipated and a new sensation is causing an uproar in your mind you cannot shake; torment him. 
Moving towards your raven-haired lover with a sensuous grin swept across your face, you crawl over top of him and lean down only inches away from his lips and get ready to utter the words that could easily be your demise. Wrestling with the need to satisfy your own cravings and carry out your bratty ploy, you hover over him a few seconds longer enjoying the sight of his full lips. Deciding to stay strong in your idea to tease him, you gently kiss him before pulling away and laying back down on the bed next to him. 
“No thanks,” you retort as you watched the dismay fill his face. Witnessing a sight so rare made it difficult to contain your laughter until sheer devilishness contorted his face. Before he could utter a word about your disobedience, the brightest idea flooded your brain. 
“Instead, let’s play a game.”
“Don’t test my patience,” he warns. “You better think long and hard before you explain this little game of yours because if it doesn’t satisfy me, you will have a long night ahead of you.”
Knowing how serious and restless he’s becoming, you create a deal that will entertain you while giving him enough pleasure in the long run that he won’t torment you too much. 
“If you win tomorrow, I will let you do whatever you want to me for one night; any of your wildest fantasies you’d love to try on me and I won’t tell you to stop. However if you lose, I get to use you in any way that pleases me,” you explain hoping he will agree to this deal knowing you’ll win either way.
Kuroo stares at you confused for a moment before busting out in a deep laugh. 
“Chibi-chan, that isn’t such a fair deal.. for you. We both know I’m going to win tomorrow on the court and then I will take you as my prize,” he taunts. Just the thought of him immediately coming to scoop you up in his arms after winning the game and taking you to the locker room to claim you has you biting your lip.
“..in straight sets. You have to win in straight sets.”
“Deal,” he says with a sly grin, pulling you closer and positioning your leg bent over top of his, giving him a perfect handful of your ass. 
“Watch your hands, lover boy. You can wait until tomorrow to have your fun with me,” you tease.
“Just be prepared because I’m going to punish you thoroughly for being such a disrespectful little brat when I win tomorrow and I’m going to enjoy every last second of watching you come completely undone at my touch.”
“Promise?” you smirk, biting your lip.
“Promise,” he glares at you with sultry eyes. 
---
The next morning you wake up feeling drowsy, the excitement of your bet kept you awake leaving too many thoughts running through your head waiting to be sorted. Noticing the cool feeling of the sheets behind your back, you turn around to notice Kuroo missing from your bed. “How long has he been gone?” you thought. As you check the time on your phone, you smell the disgustingly delicious aroma of a familiar scent coming from the kitchen. Bacon.
Mustering the strength to stand up, you quickly stretch before wrapping yourself in your blanket like a burrito to contain the warmth of your body. In the kitchen you discover Kuroo slaving himself over the stove cooking up a full breakfast for the two of you to share together. His generosity knows no bounds, but with the distress you caused your horny boyfriend last night, you became skeptical about the intentions of this homemade meal. 
“Good morning, beautiful. I hope I didn’t wake you,” he says smiling.
“What’s all this for, baby?”
Kuroo finishes plating your food and places it on the table next to a large glass of cranberry juice. He gently kisses your cheek before sitting down across from you. “Can’t I make my girlfriend a nice breakfast?” he pouts.
“Since when did we have this?” you ask, taking a sip of your cranberry juice.
“I went out this morning and bought some. I want my dessert to taste extra sweet tonight,” he snickers.
You roll your eyes at his filth while trying to hide your excitement, reminiscing how absolutely divine his tongue feels on your sensitive bud. Attempting to ignore the ungodly thoughts plaguing your mind, you quickly chug down a few sips of your juice, before instantly being brought back to reality by the mildly acidic taste. Kuroo hasn’t taken his eyes off you once since you’ve sat down and you’re hoping he didn’t notice the effect he had on you with the insinuation of being given such an intimate gift, but nothing gets past the trained eyes of the captain. 
“Isn’t it a little too early to be making a mess of yourself, love?” he teases looking up at you before taking a bite of his food. The way he dangles his fork loosely in his hands in front of his mouth gives you a perfect view of the veins slightly embossed in his knuckles. You clench down your teeth in a feeble attempt at cooling yourself down. A pink flush radiates across your cheeks as you realize a second later that your panties are already slightly wet with your slick. Your eyes shut closed slowly as you sigh and bite your lip, aggravated that he caught you so easily. 
“I’ll allow it this time, but don’t even dream of touching yourself before this little game of yours has claimed its victor.” He lifts himself off his chair and approaches behind you, resting his hands on your shoulders, gently squeezing them with his strong hands. He whispers in your ear, “if I can’t have you, you can’t either.”
After taking a hot shower to make an attempt at calming yourself down, you can’t seem to make any leeway as your imagination runs wild on possibilities for tonight. Running through every lustful dream you’ve been waiting to try with Kuroo if you win and wondering what he could possibly want from you if he wins. You manage to obey his one simple request and refrain from touching yourself, but the way he got you worked up so easily made you so frustrated. Upon finishing your shower, you pat yourself dry and head back to your room where you find Kuroo almost ready to leave. 
“I have to head out early for warm ups and a little meeting so I’ll have to meet you at the gym. You have the directions, right-” he stops as he turns around and watches your towel fall to the ground, leaving your bare ass before his eyes. He looks you up and down, biting his lip, imagining all the things he wishes he could do to you if he had the time. 
“Oops, my towel fell,” you flirt as you bend over to pick it up, exposing your folds for a brief moment before you straighten up again. 
Suddenly you feel his clothed body pressed against you and his length hardening against your back, while he leans down and whispers in your ear, “I will have no mercy on you tonight. You want to act like a slut so desperate for this cock, I’ll make you beg for it.” He leans down and gives you a quick peck on your bare shoulder before collecting his things and making his way out the door.
---
You finally make it to the gym and are able to score a seat in the front row of the stands with some Nekoma alumni Kuroo had introduced to you before. The boys finished their first match in straight sets, taking the victory as you cheered them on through every play. You could tell Kuroo was putting in extra effort at blocking today, glancing at you every now and then with an expression that says “prepare yourself.” He must be intimidating up close, since this team had trouble spiking against him, not that you’re surprised by your boyfriend's skill. 
After finishing up on the court, the team joined you up in the stands waiting for the next team they’d be playing to finish their game. Kuroo made his way over to you only to be cut off by a tall, silver haired boy you were close friends with.
“Y/n! Did you see me out there?” Lev asked you excitedly. 
You looked up at your boyfriend who was attempting to hide his disappointment, but sat behind his teammate for you to catch up. Noticing the expression on his face, you decided to rile him up a bit and test the boundaries of his temper. 
“Of course I saw! You’re the ace so everyone is watching you,” you say charmingly while putting your hand on his shoulder and looking back at Kuroo with a smirk. His eyes bulge staring at you, but he tries to play cool. 
Lev looks at you with stars in his eyes, adorably excited by being noticed as the ace. “Really? Thanks y/n!” he says as he hugs you tightly. 
Kuroo’s eyes flare up even more and he starts looking visibly angry. You look up at him helpless with innocent eyes that say “I didn’t do anything wrong”, loving the reaction you were getting from your flustered captain. Before either of you knew what was happening, Lev received a slap to the back of his head and immediately pulled away from you. 
A feisty blonde stands above Lev with an expression that looks to be a mixture of fear and anger. “What the hell are you doing, baka?! Kuroo is going to murder you for that!” he exclaims. 
Obviously unaware of his surroundings, Lev turns around to see your boyfriend staring at him while he cracks his knuckles in his hands, his eyebrows furrowed. “S- Sorry Kuroo-san. I couldn’t help it. She called me the ace!” he exclaims, earning a glare from Kuroo who still looks unamused at the tall boy’s antics.
“Don’t touch her,” he says sternly. Kuroo normally isn’t quite this possessive, but you think back to his words this morning and realize why he’s acting this way. “If I can’t have you, you can’t either.” The thought of anyone touching your body before he’s allowed to makes his blood boil.
In perfect timing, the next round is about to start so the boys start heading back down to practice their serves and spikes before they face their new opponent. As the team makes their way out, Kuroo stops by and gives you a kiss on the cheek before he whispers in your ear, “one more dirty trick and I will punish you right here for everyone to see since you seem to like an audience so much.”
Before you can say anything in response, he leaves to join the others out on the court. You wonder if you’re pushing him too far, but quickly justify your actions with reason. He’s more than capable of staying focused during games and as for your teasing, the worst he can do is punish you which was expected either way. You had nothing to worry about, or so you thought. 
Kuroo seemed distracted during this match. They were barely able to take the first set and you weren’t sure if that was because their opponent was simply better than the last team or if you’d really gotten into his head when you flirted with Lev. All you can do now is cheer on your man, you think to yourself, and accept your punishment later.
Approaching the back right corner of the court in a fresh rotation is none other than Kuroo, preparing to serve during their match point in a very close game. He looks over at you and the look on his face makes you freeze, knowing just how he’s feeling. The most stressful serve of the game rests upon his shoulders. 
“Kuroo, nice serve!” you cheer, as you stare at your boyfriend with eager anticipation. He nods at you and for a moment, the corners of his lips turn upwards. 
The whistle blows and Kuroo serves a perfect ball right to the opponents setter, limiting their options during the play. After a few short volleys, the ball goes back to the opponent and they make their last efforts to win the game. Their setter sends the ball left, just as Kuroo had anticipated, as the spiker lines up for the kill. Jumping at the perfect time, Kuroo and Lev leap up to block the ball. The spiker aims for a cross and sends the ball right into Kuroo’s hands. He completely shuts the ball out as they watch it fall on their opponents side. Their libero vaults towards the falling globe, extending his arm out as far as he can. Managing to get close enough to receive it is already slightly annoying, but the match is settled when their libero is unable to connect with the ball, just a fingertip away. 
The boys burst out in cheers, running to each other for a team hug while everyone frantically jumps, excited to play the sport they love for at least one more game together at nationals. You run down to the court as fast as you can and run to your boyfriend who opens you with arms wide open, jumping up to hug him. 
“I’m so proud of you,” you exclaim with a smile stretching from ear to ear. 
“Thank you, my love. You know what this means?”
You wait for him to make a smart remark about punishing you, but instead he answers, “this means we’re going to dinner.” The smirk radiating on his face has you confused. You assume this means he’s going to surprise you after dinner with whatever he has in mind for your punishment. Little did you know he had already planned every minute of the rest of your night.
You give him a kiss before he retreats to the locker room with his teammates and gets cleaned up for dinner. After staying back to talk to the alumni that came to the match while you waited for everyone to finish, Coach Nekomata approached the group. 
“It’s so nice to see you again,” he says to his former students. “and y/n, always a pleasure. Please keep cheering for us. Your presence brings us great strength.” His words are warm and comforting, especially knowing he means exactly as he says. “We’re having dinner together tonight as a team. All of you are more than welcome to join us,” he says before taking his leave.
The alumni talk amongst themselves and decide they will all be attending the dinner since they have extra time and miss their former teammates. You maintain conversation with the alumni, asking questions about Kuroo and his past on the volleyball team. It’s not every day that you get to hear first hand from an outside source all about the mannerisms of volleyball player Kuroo. 
Finally the doors to the locker room open and we wait in anticipation, but only your boyfriend walks out. Approaching him, you ask why he came out alone.
“I have a present for you. Go put it on,” he orders.
“This is so sweet. What is it for?” you wonder.
“Decoration for my prize,” he whispers, shooting you a wink.
Your eyebrow lifts up as your smirk matches his. Brushing past your lover, you make your way to the restroom for some privacy. Knowing his tendencies, you couldn’t even imagine what was in the bag, but you knew you probably didn’t want to unveil it on the gymnasium floor while other teams and camera crews were on their way out. Your boyfriend was the classic boy-next-door type. He does well in his studies, he’s laid-back and kind, and loves spending time with his friends. This dominant side of him only comes out in fragments when he teases, occasionally referred to as a provocateur, but no one would believe you if you told them how much he loves treating you as if you were a whore so needy for his cock. If you were honest with yourself, that’s exactly what you were.
Pushing aside the tissue paper, you see red fabric curled up at the bottom of the bag. Removing it carefully, it feels heavier than you had imagined. You unfold the lacy thong to feel a weighted object at the front end of the crotch. “Oh no,” you thought. 
Holding up your end of the deal, you slip on the panties and put the ones you were wearing in the gift bag. Making your way out of the restroom, you’re surprised to find Kuroo standing outside the door waiting for you. He grabs your hand and pulls you towards the exit. “Come on, everyone is waiting for us to go eat. You sure took your sweet time, love. Does that mean you’re excited?”
---
Before you knew it, you were at the restaurant being seated with the rest of the team. You sat down next to your boyfriend and began socializing about their matches and catching up with the rest of the team. While you're in the middle of a conversation with Inuoka, you feel the little vibrator inside your panties turn on and rattle against your clit just enough to surprise you and make you jump. Your leg hits the underneath of the table as you yelp, gaining a few startled stares from the team. 
“Y/n, are you okay?” Inuoka asks with a worried expression.
“Yeah, I’m fine. Just a leg spasm,” you cover, shooting a glance at your boyfriend who looks very pleased with himself, leaving the vibrator turned on.
You reach down to grab more food and lift it to your mouth, blowing on it to prevent your mouth from burning, but also using it as a cover for the sighs leaving your lips. Taking a bite, you purr “mmngh this is so delicious!” You glance over at your boyfriend who looks a little agitated that you’ve managed to find a way to cope with the situation so quickly. Every time he increases the level on his remote controlling the vibrator in your panties, you take a bite of food and moan into it, disguising your pleasure as an erotic lust for food. You may appear strange to others, but this is the best you can do under the circumstances to ride out your high without being caught. 
Kuroo leans next to you and whispers in your ear, keeping his volume loud enough that the people close to you could hear if they paid attention to you. “You better keep quiet, princess.”
“But it’s so good!” you whine, dipping your fingertip in sauce before kitten-licking it clean. 
“You’re making such a mess of yourself,” he growls, wiping a bit of sauce leftover on your lower lip with his thumb. 
“Ew, get a room,” a disgusted Lev shrieks.
---
The rest of the night proceeds as expected. Every time you try to speak to anyone when there’s a considerable amount of attention on you, he turns the vibrator on and shocks you. 
“Are you sure you’re okay?” asks Fukunaga. “You’ve been jittery all night.”
“I’m just excited to see you guys play again tomorrow. Can’t help myself from shaking with excitement!” you explain, slightly lying and exaggerating to circumvent the tension building. You glance at your lover with a hint of annoyance, knowing he’ll pick up on your impatience for dealing with this punishment. In response, he turns up the power level to the third of seven settings, shooting you a glance that reads “I’m not done with you yet.” You clench your legs shut in search of relief only to gain the opposite. Your fingernails dig into the soft palm of your hand attempting to prevent a reaction as the pressure builds at your core.
As embarrassing as it would be for you to be caught doing something like this, especially in the presence of someone as respected as the Coach, it’s turning you on immensely being in the presence of so many people whilst having your sensitive bud being toyed with by your boyfriend. Discreetly, you move your hand to his lap and rub your hand over his bulge, earning you an increase to level four. Your hand naturally retreats away from him as you flinch, taking the change in speed as a warning not to be too bold since this is your punishment after all, but you can’t resist and you reach your hand back over, palming him through his sweatpants.
Looking mildly flustered, Kuroo allows you to touch him and ease some of the stiffness he’s feeling from the confinement of his pants. You glance up into his dark eyes and you smirk at each other, enjoying the scandalous situation you’re both in, before turning your head back to the table to avoid suspicion. Just waiting for one of you to slip up and be too obvious is sounding more and more like a challenge than he had ever intended it to be. A glutton for punishment, you take his hand under the table and slip it under your skirt, guiding his fingers to the wet slick seeping through your new panties and he lets out a small sigh. You bite your lip at the thought of what he’d do to you if you were at home, and Kuroo noticed this too. He saw you were lost in thought so he used it as the perfect opportunity to change the rhythm of the vibrator. Still on level four, the tempo of the vibrations shifted as he moved through the three options the device had. As he stumbled on the third, a wave of pleasure ran through your body and you couldn’t hold back as a whimper escaped your swollen lips. 
Luckily the group was getting a little rowdy since the alumni at the end of the table were already drunk. This time you barely managed to hold yourself back, but the increasing swarm of pleasure rising through you was pushing you dangerously close to your climax. You shot your boyfriend another expression, warning him you’re almost at your limit, but he just smiled at you knowing exactly what you meant.
Due to all the pulses your throbbing clit is receiving, it’s almost impossible to eat anything now. You’re trying your best to avoid suspicion, but every time you have a piece of food up to your mouth, he zaps you and your hand shakes. You could handle everything else, but not being able to eat was frustrating you more than words could describe. You were going to need a lot of energy to keep up with him tonight and he wasn’t providing you with any sustenance. 
Looking up, you see the teammate sitting across from you staring at your boyfriend. The setter glanced at Kuroo and back in your direction before averting his attention back to another conversation. “Did he notice something he shouldn’t have?” you wonder, but quickly dismissing the question as your folds begin throbbing from the intensity of the vibrator on your clit.
You took a sip of your water, draining your cup, trying to avoid eye contact with the boys. Kuroo hasn’t experimented with the remote while you were drinking thus far so you thought of it as your safe haven when you need to take a brief break. However, you’re now completely out of water and have to ask for more.
“Excuse me, could someone pass me more- ahh!” you yelped. Everyone was looking in your direction now, not only the group you came in with, but people seated at nearby tables as well. Your head ran completely blank as the embarrassment took over. You feel like everyone knew your dirty little secret of how your boyfriend was viciously toying with you in public, even in front of his respected elders. 
The setter who was staring at you earlier broke the silence. “Sorry, y/n. I didn’t mean to kick you.” You were startled by the sudden apology, especially because you were both aware he didn’t touch you.
“That’s okay, Kenma. I was just surprised, that’s all,” you explain. Everyone calmed down after they heard his apology, but it only makes your heart beat faster. You turn to Kuroo and notice him staring down at his phone, typing away at something. You sneak a glance and see messages to Kenma. 
“Do you know?”
“Do I know that you’re messing around with your girlfriend at a team dinner? Yeah, I know.”
“How did you figure it out? You’ve been single for as long as I’ve known you.”
“I’m single, not blind. Just go easy on her. If Coach finds out what’s going on, you’ll be doing diving drills as punishment.”
“The only punishment I’m focused on is hers.”
After he sends that final text, he puts his phone away and suddenly, the most powerful surge of vibrations you’ve felt this whole night came rushing to your core, forcing you to grip the table and bite down on your lip hard to suppress the moans attempting to escape from your tightly locked lips. You grip your boyfriend’s thigh with the other hand and shoot him a look that says everything he needed to know. You were about to cum right in the middle of the restaurant.
Knowing this, Kuroo didn’t dare change the level and interrupt the waves of pleasure being released through your lower half. Instead he leaned in to whisper in your ear words that made you blush.
“Since you like an audience so much and he already knows your little secret, I want you to look at Kenma when you cum for me.” 
You look up at your boyfriend smirking as he nods his head in the direction of Kenma who was already staring at you. His gaze was different than when you first locked eyes after he had protected you from getting caught. Instead, his eyes are piercing as if to undress you with his eyes. He knows exactly what’s happening to you and for some reason, you find it unbelievably exciting. You bite your lip and ogle his movements, knowing he’s trying hopelessly to conceal his hardening length underneath his sweatpants.
“Do you see what you’re doing to him, y/n? I can only imagine how fucking sexy you’d look taking him in your mouth,” he hums. 
The idea of your boyfriend watching as another man takes advantage of you has come up in your fantasies before. Maybe if you had won the bet, you would’ve asked for a threesome, but you push that thought to the back of your mind as your orgasm washes over you. You grip Kuroo’s leg hard, feeling like you were about to crush his bones. Obeying his orders, you look directly into Kenma’s eyes as you struggle to prevent your face from contorting and giving up your secret to the rest of the table. Kenma bites his lips as he gets drunk off the expressions you’re giving him. He’s unable to pull his eyes away from you and his arousal increases steadily. You see his hands move over his crotch, slightly palming himself.
You lean over to Kuroo and without taking your eyes off his best friend, you whisper, “Seems to me like he’s being punished just as much as I am. You won’t allow him any release?”
‘I know you like an audience, baby, but you’re mine and only mine. He can look and dream all he wants, but can’t touch,” he whispers back at you. For challenging him, he finally increases the device to its highest level. An overwhelming flash of white comes to your vision as you’re now shaking uncontrollably. His firm hand grips your thigh, steadying you to prevent speculation in your final moments. Kenma watches you closely as his deep lust washes over him and he’s forced to quickly announce his departure to the restroom, obvious to the pair of you that he needs to finish himself off in private.
As you ride the wave of pleasure until completion, you’re left feeling filthy in your chair. Heaving and out of breath, you look at your proud boyfriend and mutter the words he’s been waiting to hear.
“We need to go home. Now,” you say quietly, yet stern, the fire of your lust still ablaze in your eyes.
Smirking at you and putting his hand on your leg once more, he rubs his fingertips on your inner thigh, dangerously close to your dripping entrance. His eyes drift to his teammates as he speaks, “Coach, if it’s okay I think I should take y/n home now before it gets too late.” His hands squeeze your thigh slightly, letting you know he hasn’t stopped paying attention to your needs. 
“Rest well tonight so you’re prepared for the games tomorrow. The competition will only be getting harder from here on out, okay? Take her home safely,” Coach Nekomata replies.
Standing up to leave, you smile at the team as you try to cover yourself up as much as possible, trying to keep yourself from getting caught when you’ve already gotten this far. Your slick has already seeped through your panties and coated your thighs in sweet juices so you try keeping your legs closed as much as possible. 
“Thank you, Coach. We’ll be leaving now.” Your boyfriend says his goodbyes for the night and walks behind you out the door. 
---
You walk out the front door of the restaurant and no sooner does Kuroo have his hands on your waist. Smiling at his touch, you turn around and look up at your boyfriend giving you a pleased grin.
“You did so well in there, princess. Although I’m going to discipline you for being such a brat,” he leans down pressing his lips to your ear. “Do you have any idea how badly I wanted to fuck you right then and there, for everyone to see that you’re mine?”
You bite your lip upon hearing his words, knowing you were able to offer a little torture to him as well made you lean against him, your body pressed against his. A sigh falls from his lips and he starts walking forward slowly, letting you know he was ready to start walking again. On your way to the bus stop, you can’t help but mention a thought you had while in the restaurant. 
“Can I ask you a question?”
“Of course you can, dummy. What’s on your mind?”
“Would you ever be interested in a threesome?” you ask quietly, turning your head from him to avoid letting him see how bashful that thought made you.
“Hm, I’m not sure. I never seriously considered it because I like having you all to myself, but maybe that’s something we can try. Seeing how wet you got when Kenma watched you was really hot,” he explains.
You smile slightly looking down at your footsteps in line with your boyfriends. Worried that the question would make things awkward for a moment, a swarm of relief fills your troubled mind. Kuroo had always been ready to try new things, especially if you mentioned you wanted to try it first, but this felt different. As adventurous as he is, he is also very protective of you. You thought he might get jealous and neglect the question entirely, but you were happy he’s even considering it. Suddenly all your worries fade away, not sure why you even had them in the first place with a boyfriend as amazing as him. 
“Who would you want to join us?” you ask, the question sounding very light as your tone shifts.
“How could you ask me that?” he jokes. “You’re the one who’d be getting railed by them.”
“What about Kenma?”
“No, absolutely not. I think his heart would combust from the excitement of the situation, baby.”
You both laugh, joking together about fantasies you may act on one day. Talking to your boyfriend like this was so comforting, knowing you could confide in him about anything, but it also really turned you on. Hearing all of his kinks and fantasies spilling from his lips only makes you want to fulfill those dreams for him. You know he’d do anything to please you and acting on your own fantasies brings him immense amount of pleasure. As long as he can make you cum, he’s game for anything you desire.
---
On the bus ride home, you rest your head on his shoulder. There weren’t many people around so you didn’t feel the need to be as careful when initiating skinship. You were seated in the back corner, far from the gazes of other passengers who chose to stand in the front. Feeling your touch, he kisses your forehead before resting his cheek on the top of your head. Enjoying the feeling of his warmth, you close your eyes and allow yourself to get lost in thoughts of your lover. He wasn’t a perfect man by any means, but you knew he’d always try his best to take care of you and make you happy. You were lucky to have found a man who is not only your lover, but your best friend as well. The time you’ve spent by his side made you realize that he was the only one you could ever call yours. No one else could compare to the love you held in every corner of your heart for him.
“Baby,” you call.
“Hm?” Kuroo lifts up his head to look at you as you do the same.
“How did I get so lucky to have you?”
A smile creeps onto his face as he chuckles at your question. “You know, I still get butterflies when I look at you? Every morning I wake up with you by my side and I wonder what I did to deserve this life I’ve been given.”
“I love you so much, Kuroo Tetsurou,” you say, smiling as you stare into his hazel eyes.
“I love you too, chibi-chan,” he said, smiling back at you. He leaned in and kissed your cheek, but instead of pulling away, he leaned in close to your ear and whispered. “I can’t wait to show you how much I love you when I make you see stars tonight.”
“Oh my god,” you say, rolling your eyes. “Go to horny jail, you perv!” You can’t help but laugh as you swat your boyfriend’s toned thigh.
Both of you spend the ride home laughing and joking with each other. You listened as he shared stories about his teammates and he listened to your stories about Karasuno that you heard from Kiyoko and Yachi, your best friends. Nearby passengers gaze at the pair of you with jealous eyes, unbeknownst to you, as they admire your relationship. An old woman seated a few rows ahead has been listening to you banter and enjoy each others’ company as she stares out the window, watching the city lights pass her by. “Oh, young love. What I wouldn’t give to remember that feeling again,” she thinks to herself as she smiles. 
---
As you finally arrive at your shared apartment, you both enter and shut the door behind you, kicking off your shoes. Suddenly you’re swept off your feet, being held in the arms of Kuroo who is now carrying you bridal style towards your bedroom. You giggle and wrap your arms around his neck to secure yourself to him. He turns on the light as he enters the doorway and carefully places you at the edge of the bed, leaning down to kiss you. His lips feel soft against yours, pulling you into a passionate kiss before stepping back. He stands up and makes his way to the candle on your dresser, lighting it before turning off the bedroom light.
He approaches you slowly, “Since we won our matches in straight sets, just as you asked, it’s time for me to claim my reward.” His knee comes between your legs as he leans down on you, forcing you to move backwards on the bed and spread your legs to either side of his body to allow him space to crawl up with you. The warm glow of the candle highlights the outline of his body as if the sun itself kissed his skin and allowed him to possess its radiance. You can’t help but admire his breathtaking features as he hovers over you, and with this he explains the details of his promised reward between soft kisses.
“I want to take my time with you,” he finally says, peppering kisses on your jawline. “I want you to feel my desire for you raging through me.” His kisses move down your neck slowly. “I want to make love to you,” he admits before his kisses become harder. “And I want you to be a good girl for me.” He sucks carefully on your neck as you close your eyes, enjoying every honey-drenched word uttered from your boyfriend’s mouth. Your hand creeps up the back of Kuroo’s neck as you run your fingers through his raven hair. An airy moan escapes your lips when he bites at your neck, leaving a bruise. 
He leans up and looks in your eyes with a serious, yet sultry expression plastered on his face. “Do you think you can do that for me, kitten?” The corner of his lips pulls up into a smirk that has you questioning what awaits you, but as promised, you must comply.
“Of course, master. Anything for you,” you say as sweetly as you can muster. You can see the glimmer in his eyes at the name you unexpectedly called him. “If you’re going to have full control over me, then master is a fitting title for you, am I wrong?” you ask.
Kuroo bites his lip as he processes your words, his eyes veering down to examine your body sprawled out underneath him. He notices the dark hickey he’s already painted on your neck and he smiles, admiring his work. Your shirt lays flush against your skin, accentuating your curves, begging for attention as it strains against your chest. Those red panties he bought for you, still drenched in your own cum, peek out from the hem of your skirt. 
His hand reaches down to caress your inner thigh, moving closer to your heat. “You’re so sexy,” he whispers as his other hand pushes up your skirt to get a better look at the mess you made for him earlier in the restaurant. His fingers press against your clothed slit and he groans at the feeling. “Fuck, chibi-chan, you’re still so wet for me. I can’t wait to eat you,” he growls. Removing his finger from your panties, he lifts you up and pulls them off of you. You scoot backwards on the bed to give him more space, which he wastes no time filling. He lays down in front of you and spreads your legs with both hands. 
Suddenly you feel his soft lips on your thigh, kissing your supple skin, and you twitch slightly at the chills it sends through your spine. His lips attack your skin rougher, allowing his teeth to slip through and nibble at your delicate thigh. Your back arches and you whimper, feeling a tinge of both pain and pleasure. Kuroo smiles at your reaction and rewards you with a gentle kiss over the abused area before moving to the other side. The kisses on your opposite thigh immediately trail directly to your bare core, eventually making their way to your throbbing bud. All of the overstimulation you experienced at the restaurant made you sensitive, forcing you to overreact at the slightest touch. You gripped the sheets next to you as he kitten-licked your clit gently and you moaned. His eyes peered up at you, not wanting to miss a single move you made, and you watched them darken as you held eye contact when he began sucking on the little bundle of nerves he’d already set on fire.
“Fuckk, Tetsu, that feels so good,” you whimper, your brows furrowed together at the intense movements of your boyfriend's tongue. The fist firmly gripping the sheets found its way to the black hair falling messily over Kuroo’s eye to push his hair back for a better view of his face as he ate you out. His tongue rolled over your folds sloppily, letting his saliva mix with your juices to keep you drenched. He could feel you clenching around nothing as his tongue danced along your slit. 
You throw your head back against the bed as you feel the pad of his thumb beginning to gently rub against your throbbing clit. Kuroo enjoys the lewd moans he’s pulling from your swollen lips as he picks up the pace of his thumb, allowing his tongue to slip inside of you. Unable to control yourself, your body convulses under his touch, making you grind against his mouth. You could feel yourself getting ready to come undone all over again and try your best to look Kuroo in the eyes when you cum all over his tongue. He notices you staring and pulls his mouth away, only to add two fingers inside of you, curling upwards to hit your sweet spot.
“That’s right, kitten. Watch me while I destroy you,” he groans deeply. The tone of his voice taunts you, challenging you to defy him. His fingers piston in and out of you at a cruel pace, carefully positioned to continue abusing the same spot. Your hands come down on either side of you to curl the sheets into your fist as you squirm underneath his grip, your orgasm quickly approaching. Even the noises flowing from your mouth couldn’t be controlled anymore, the once cute sounds becoming cries for release of an animalistic nature. 
“I can feel your needy pussy gripping my fingers,” he hums. “Cum for me, baby.”
With those words, your head pushed down against the bed and your eyes shut tight as you finally released all the tension he’d built up inside of you. Your chest rose and fell rapidly as you attempted to catch your breath and you looked down to see his face and arm dripping wet. You hadn’t even noticed you had squirted, but Kuroo looked up at you with a devilish grin as his tongue peaked out to lick his lips.
“Such a good girl for me. Now, open,” he orders as he rests his fingers on your lips. You happily oblige and stare deeply into his eyes, sitting up as you suck your juices off his fingers. He uses his other hand to pick up the hem of his shirt and dry his face, wipe your juices off his face lazily as he watches you. Your hands take advantage of his newly revealed torso as they slide up his toned abdomen, pushing up his shirt even more. He pulls his shirt off for you in one swift motion while you get up on your knees and pull him into your lips. The kiss is passionate and slightly rough, your lips fighting for more attention. He bites your lip and tugs on it, allowing you a moment to break away from his lips and trail your own down his neck. 
He groans slightly at the unexplored area suddenly being given attention, your tongue dragging a line up his neck before you suck on it. Your kiss is gentle, unable to leave marks on him wherever his uniform doesn’t cover, so you move lower to his chest. His toned chest is left with a trail of wet kisses as you go lower, your hands reaching up to find the waistband of his pants. You palm his hardening cock over his sweats and he groans, admiring how hot you look worshipping his body in the way you know he loves. Your kisses pepper over his happy trail before you pull his pants down just enough for his large cock to spring free from the constricting grip. You’re down on your hands and knees in front of him, legs spread wide with your ass in the air, your skirt lifted enough to reveal your ass. He groans at the sight as you take his length into your hands and begin to stroke him. 
“Any special requests, master? It’s my turn to please you.” Your flirtatious, bratty tone makes him want to put you in your place, teach you who exactly is in control. 
“Suck.”
You stick out your tongue and run it from the base to the tip before swirling your tongue around it. You kissed it gently, moving your lips to the side of his shaft. His hand reaches down and grabs a fistful of your hair, pulling your head back and forcing you to look up at him. “I said suck. Now,” he threatens. The sheer dominance in his tone pooled wetness at your core again as you obeyed. You spit on his shaft and rubbed it in with your hand before wrapping your lips around the tip. You bobbed your head down slowly, trying to coat every inch with your spit. Each time you pulled your head back as you bobbed, you rolled your tongue out to lick the underneath of his shaft and you watched as his head lolled back. 
As his cock got wetter, your mouth got sloppier, bobbing your head quickly with your cheeks hollowed. His groans slipping through his mouth were nothing short of sinful and you loved hearing the reaction you earned from him. He gripped your hair in his fist, gently forcing you to take more of him and fucking your throat. You tried to look up at him as the tears pooled at the corners of your eyes, threatening to fall from the harsh movements of his hips. He allowed you to pull your head away as you gasped for air and smiled up at him with your tongue out, stroking his length with your small hands. He looked down at you in awe, the little slut he made for himself smiled so pretty for him after being face fucked. He couldn’t have asked for anything more.
He pulled you up and took off your shirt before gently laying you back on the bed. Leaning down, he peppered kisses over your left tit while his hand came up and squeezed the other. His tongue flicked around your nipple before sucking and pulling at it. You sighed and ran your hand through his hair as he continued playing with your tits. He removed his lips from your left and moved onto the right, giving it the same attention with his mouth. Your back arched into him as he sucked on your nipple, rutting against him to find more friction on your aching core. As much as you loved the attention he was giving your chest, your aching hole clenching around nothing yearned for it more. He kissed down the valley of your breasts, leaving hickeys in his wake before sitting up and hovering over you. He wiped his thumb across your lips, hooking it in your mouth as he positioned himself over you again. “What do you want me to do to you? I want to hear you say it.” You try to respond, but his thumb makes it hard for the words to come out of your mouth, your reply mumbled. He removes his thumb and grips your face instead. 
“I want you to fuck me, Tetsu.”
He smirks and groans, “beg for it, kitten.” He lines up his aching cock to your pussy, slowly rubbing the tip against your folds.
“Please fuck me. I need to feel you inside me and I want you to be rough. Please, master. I need it.” Those vulgar words slipped from your pretty mouth as he thrust into you, bottoming out all at once. You gasped at the new feeling as you clenched around him, your back arching off the bed as you searched to hold onto something. You reached for his arm and you squeezed it as he starts to fuck you to a rhythm, not letting you adjust to his size.
His hips thrust into you hard, shaking your whole body from the force of it. He pushes your legs down towards your chest and leans himself on top of you. The angle he’s pressing into you makes you clench down around him as he deeply thrusts directly at your sweet spot. 
“Shit, yes, please fuck me just like that,” you whimper, the intense pleasure pooling in your stomach. Hearing you beg for it only made him thrust harder into you, loving the way you sounded when you were so needy for him. You quickly felt your third orgasm of the night threatening to escape you as he mercilessly pounded into you, grazing your cervix with every pump. You grabbed his arms with both of your hands, squeezing them while you stared into his darkening eyes.
He watched every quirk your face made as it contorted with pleasure, adoring how beautiful you looked being fucked out. His hand came up to your neck and squeezed the sides of your throat gently, just barely cutting off your air flow. Your mouth hung agape as you stared up at him, brows furrowed as you focused on the sensation flowing through your body. Your moans became shrill as your orgasm washed over you, squirting all over your sheets and Kuroo’s torso. Your juices dripped down him deliciously and you felt it dripping down your thighs as well.
Kuroo looked down at the pleasant sight with a devilish grin, pulling out of you as you caught your breath. “You’re so wet for me tonight, babe. Now turn around so we can cum together this time.” Getting up on your hands and knees proved slightly more difficult than you had anticipated. Your legs already feel shaky from the intense position he’d kept you in and you can hear him chuckle as he helps you position yourself in front of him, satisfied with his work. He pulls your skirt off, finally leaving you completely bare, and he looks down at you, biting his lip. You can feel him lining the tip up to your entrance again, but he pushes it in very slowly and stops when just the tip is in.
“Be a good girl and bounce on it.”
You quickly follow orders as you push your ass back on him until every inch is inside. His groan echoes in the room behind you as you start grinding yourself on his cock. There’s something about the feeling of using him to get yourself off that makes you feel so dirty and both of you love that sensation. You bounce back faster, slamming yourself against his hips and moan for him. Before you can continue, Kuroo’s hand lands on your lower back and pushes you down against the bed before taking control. He pistons his hips into you as he stuffs you full, your head now pushed against the pillow. His hand comes down hard on your ass, spanking you a few times in a row, leaving your ass red and tender.
The sensations you’re experiencing all at once become overwhelming, but he’s making you feel so good and you don’t want it to stop. You match his pace and continue bouncing back on him slightly in an attempt to keep your needy hole filled with him. He bites his lip as his grunts become more staggered, approaching his end. He leans down and reaches his fingers around you to rub your throbbing clit. Your body immediately becomes limp at the touch of his finger as you scream. The sensitive bud feels as if it had burst into flames all over again.
“Where do you want my cum?” he asks breathlessly. You can tell he’s dangerously close to his release, but so are you with the way he’s toying with you. 
“Inside me! Fill me up, master!”
He groans deeply, “Fuck, such a good slut for me.” With a few more thrusts, his pace becomes faster and uncontrolled. In a final thrust, he paints your insides white and you cum around him as he slowly thrusts into you to ride out your highs. A symphony of heavy breathing fills the room accompanied by the sight of sweaty luster on your skin. You fall down completely on the sheets and try to rest your abused body as you feel him fall on the bed beside you, trying to catch his breath.
“Did you get what you wanted, Tetsu? The prize you were after?” you questioned, already knowing the answer.
Kuroo curled up next to you and pulled you close, cuddling you into him. “I always want to make love to you,” he says, kissing your forehead. “You’re so beautiful and sexy like this.” His hand gently comes down to your ass, rubbing circles over the red marks he made earlier from spanking you. You always loved his gentle after care, especially since he loved being rough with you. He knew you needed to be pampered a bit to compensate for his power, even more so on nights he doesn’t hold back.
“Can we lay here for a minute before we go get cleaned up? Frankly, I don’t think I can move,” you say laughing, knowing that you were only half joking. He chuckles, looking down at your legs proudly.
“Don’t worry, chibi-chan. Just lay here and I’ll get you all cleaned up, okay?” He kisses your forehead again before walking to the bathroom to get a warm, wet towel. He comes back to you and asks you to spread your legs for him, which you obey. He smirks as he sees his seed dripping from your aching pussy before wiping away both of your juices. His washes you gently as you try getting your energy back. You sit up in bed and grab the cloth out of his hand.
“It’s okay, Tetsu. Let’s go get a shower. We need to change the sheets so I have to get up anyway,” you gesture to the large wet spot in the middle of the bed from your cum. He helps you off the bed and walks with you to the shower.
“Start showering without me. I’ll prepare the bed for us before joining you.”
You nod and get in the shower, cleansing yourself of the remnants of the intimate act you shared with your partner. You reminisced over the time you spent together as a couple, your love never wavering. How could it when you had such an amazing boyfriend? He’s stayed consistent through thick and thin, always taking care of you, as if the honeymoon phase was forever. You smiled to yourself thinking about how he used his opportunity to have you in whichever way he wanted to make love to you, as you often do. Although the vibrator was a sneaky little trick, you didn’t put it past him since you’ve tried many scandalous things over the years to add some spice into your sex lives. Reminding yourself of just how lucky you were was something you did daily, always making sure to remind Kuroo as well that you were grateful for him. Your relationship was healthy and fun. It was the kind of love that made everyone around you jealous as they patiently waited for their special someone to arrive. 
Kuroo joined you in the shower after cleaning the bed and putting on new sheets. You both washed each other, admiring the sudsy curves on each other’s bodies. The warm water rinsed the soap off your bodies and you dried up before hopping into bed. You spent the night wrapped up in each other as you cuddled up to sleep, sharing the warmth of your blanket. 
---
The next morning you woke up earlier than Kuroo who was sound asleep beside you. “He must be tired from all the energy he used up yesterday,” you thought to yourself. You decided it was your turn to make him a big breakfast. Being well fed and energetic would surely aid in his upcoming matches and Coach Nekomata would kill him if he was ill-prepared. Kuroo made his way into the kitchen before you had even finished cooking, so he helped you set the table. After eating, you both got dressed and left together for the gym.
“How’s your condition?” you ask, your boyfriend seeming more lively.
“I feel good! Your cooking certainly helped me wake up. Although you know I’m going to win today regardless,” he winks. 
“Ah, yes. My big, bad boyfriend is gonna tear up the court!” you joke sarcastically. You both laugh and banter as you enter the gym and meet up with the rest of the team. They greet you and Kuroo before he retreats to change into his uniform, leaving you alone with the boys. You can feel their eyes on you, which was strange, especially since you’ve grown so comfortable with them. What could they possibly be staring at? Sudden realization flooded your mind that your neck was covered in hickeys. You pulled your hair down to cover your neck, avoiding eye contact with the team and trying to feign innocence. A few laughs burst through the silence, their owners being Lev and Yaku.
“Hey, what are those?” Lev teases. “Is that why you and Kuroo left dinner early last night?”
“Y/N, I thought you were more innocent than that,” Yaku pouts, looking flustered.
Your face flushed pink, attempting even more obviously to hide them now that they’ve noticed. The commotion caused the rest of the team to look over, curious as to what was going on. Your eyes panned over the familiar faces, but stopped as you landed on one face in particular who was staring at you, his gaze different from the rest. Kenma. The rosy flush raged into a full tomato red at the hungry eyes of your boyfriend’s best friend who was gazing upon your neck.
“I can’t believe you left without me,” he whispers under his breath.
Kuroo approaches the team, fully changed and ready for practice, “What’d I miss?” The boys disperse except for Kenma who was still staring a hole into you. Kuroo caught on to what was happening after seeing your neck and walked over towards his best friend. Before completely passing him, he stops and mutters something to him loud enough for only you and Kenma to hear.
“You’re lucky my girl likes you. Maybe next time I’ll share.”

Truth or Dare in Gym 3 - Gym 3 Squad
The (big) gym 3 squad plays truth or dare. That’s literally it. BokuAka. Mentions of Tsukiyama. Implied YakuLev, KuroKen, Kagehina, but they’re not actually together in this fic so
They were absolutely wiped out from their three-on-three, slumped against the wall of the gym as they tried to catch their breath.
“You guys wanna do something fun?” Bokuto asked, still working on catching his breath from the intense game.
“Like?” Tsukishima asked.
“Truth or dare~” Kuroo suggested, pushing some of his sweaty hair out of his face. “We can do it while we cool down.”
“No.” Tsukishima stood up. “I’m good-“
“But Tsukishima! It would be fun!” Hinata whined, grabbing onto the middle blocker’s arm and attempting to pull the much taller boy back onto the floor of the gym.
Tsukki wasn’t budging. “This isn’t working, you know,” he said simply.
“I guess if you don’t play I’ll have to reveal the blackmail Kenna’s been collecting of you,” Kuroo shrugged.
“The what?”
“You can believe me or you can take that chance, up to you.”
Tsukishima sat back down in the circle. “Fine. But we can’t play for long—we have to get to bed soon.”
“Yay!” Lev cheered, lifting his arms up in triumph, as though he had done anything to convince the boy to stay in the first place.
“But you know how there’s always that person that only does truth,” Bokuto complained, glancing slightly at Akaashi, trying to make it discreet (and failing). “I don’t wanna have that happen.”
Akaashi rolled his eyes playfully. “Okay. How about everyone does two rounds - you have to do one truth and one dare. Your choice when you’re asked is mainly if you trust the person asking to give you a dare or not.”
“You’re a genius ‘Kaashi!”
“Oo!” Hinata squirmed in his seat. “I’ll go first!! Bokuto! Truth or dare?”
“Hmm, let’s start out easy with a truth!”
Hinata puffed out some air—he was obviously hoping for a dare—and took a minute to think. “Okay! Who’s your best friend in this group?”
Silence. Bokuto glanced between Kuroo and Akaashi, the two boys to the side of him. Then he looked back at Hinata. “Can you give me another one?” He pouted. “I can’t answer that.”
Tsukki rolled his eyes and grumbled something, but the other boys ignored it, trying to come up with another truth so Bokuto wouldn’t be sad by having to choose a favorite friend.
“Got it! Who on Karasuno do you think is the most intimidating?” Classic Hinata always thinking of volleyball.
“Oh, your captain, for sure!”
Kuroo nodded solemnly in agreement. “Dude freaks me out sometimes.”
“...Daichi does?” Hinata asked, tilting his head in confusion. Daichi was such an encouraging leader, he never even thought of him as intimidating.
“Definitely. When his gaze gets all cold...” Bokuto shivered. “He’s scary, dude.”
Hinata laughed, as did Tsukishima shockingly. “Guess I never thought about it that way,” the ginger said, shrugging.
“Anyways! My turn to ask now. Tsukki! Truth or dare?” Bokuto asked, pointing his finger at the blonde.
“Still Tsukishima, and truth. I don’t trust a dare from you.”
“Booo,” Bokuto pouted. “But okay. If my team were to play Kuroo’s in an actual match, who do you think would win?”
Tsukishima paused, glancing between the two captains, trying to assess what he had seen of their teams the past few days before coming up with his answer. “Fukurodani.”
“Ughhh, why?” Kuroo grumbled.
Tsukishima pointed to Kuroo. “You’d spend the whole match trying to outsmart Bokuto. But he’d catch onto it immediately and shut it down,” he pointed to Akaashi. “Kenma might be able to outsmart Akaashi, but you’re too proud to ask for help.”
“You’re scary Tsukishima.” Lev blurted out. Tsukishima just glanced his way, a blank look on his face.
“Anyways. Kuroo. Truth or dare?”
“I’m gonna trust you to start out the night with the first dare!” Kuroo said excitedly. “Don’t make me regret it.”
He regretted it immediately once he saw the widening grin on Tsukishima’s face. “Go ask one of the coaches for a condom.”
Kuroo buried his face in his hands, embarrassed. “What’s the aftermath for backing out of a dare?”
“Death.” Tsukishima replied seriously.
Kuroo groaned, then got up, walking out of the gym to find the coaches with the other boys in tow, excited to watch this play out.
There they were, drinking in one of the rooms. He knocked quietly, making his way in. “Uhh, could I steal Karasuno’s coach away for just a second?” He asked awkwardly, unable to look any of the coaches in the eye. Coach Ukai smiled and followed him outside the room to the hall, where the other boys were eavesdropping around the corner.
“Uh, sorry to bother you!” Kuroo blurted out.
“It’s fine kid. What’s up?”
“Uhm,” Kuroo pulled on the collar of his shirt. It was getting hot in there, probably from all the nerves. “Do you have a c-condom?”
Absolute silence for a second. Kuroo could feel himself dying on this inside and the boys had to fight to hold back their snickers.
“Sure.” Coach Ukai pulled out his wallet, pulling out a condom and handing it to the captain. “Is that all you need?”
“Uh, yup.” Kuroo gulped. “Thank you.”
“No problem,” the coach waved to the student then walked back in to join his fellow coaches.
The other boys rounded the corner, laughing their asses off.
“That was awful!” Kuroo whined, his face bright red. “I highly recommend nobody accept a dare from Tsukishima ever again.”
“Wah, wah.” Tsukishima rolled his eyes. The boys started walking back towards the gym. “Anyways, you get to ask next.”
“Chibi-Chan, truth or dare?”
Hinata’s back straightened as he finally got picked to go. “Dare!!” He exclaimed. Kuroo stopped in his tracks.
“Okay. While we’re still in the dorm area, I dare you to go in, ask Kenma for his PSP, then just leave with it.” Truth be told, Kenma always played the game long into the night. If Kuroo tried to take it away, there’d be hell to pay. But maybe Kenma would give in for Hinata.
“Alright! That’s not too bad.” Hinata started to skip towards the Nekoma dorm where the students were saying. The light was still on, signaling that all the players were still awake.
Hinata opened the door shyly, sneaking in but leaving the door open a crack so the boys could eavesdrop.
“Hey Kenma!” Hinata exclaimed as he walked over to the boy, his face still buried in the game.
“Oh, hey Shoyo. I thought you were practicing late?” Kenma asked, glancing up from his game to look at him.
“Oh yeah, but I got bored. Hey, I’m trying to figure out what games to get on my PSP. Can I borrow yours and see what all’s on it?”
“Sure thing,” Kenma handed him the gaming console.
“Thanks!” Hinata cheered, making a quick exit out the door with the device. He shut the door behind him and held it up triumphantly, handing it to Kuroo.
“Easy one.”
“Well, it’s never easy for me,” Kuroo chuckled. “He may actually be able to get some sleep tonight, thanks.”
“So it’s my turn?” Hinata asked as the group made their way back to the gym.
“Yup!” Kuroo answered.
“Kuroo. Truth or dare? Remember...”
Tsukishima grinned. “It has to be truth.”
“Okay, okay. I don’t like the feeling I’m getting but... truth it is.”
Hinata stopped, pulling the guys closer to him so he could keep his voice low. “Have you ever asked Kenma on a date?”
“What!?” Kuroo’s face turned bright red. “No! We’ve been friends for forever.”
“Yeah and? Same for the Great King and Iwaizumi but that didn’t stop them,” Hinata said simply, shrugging. A majority of the boys had no clue who he was talking about, but just figured it was one of the many people Hinata had befriended.
“He doesn’t like me like that!”
“You never know Bro!” Bokuto encouraged him, patting his back. “What’s the worst that could happen?”
Silence.
“He doesn’t like him back and things get awkward,” Tsukishima answered truthfully.
“That! Exactly!” Kuroo exclaimed.
“I think you’d be fine. Kenma isn’t the type who’d hold a grudge over something like that if he doesn’t feel the same,” Akaashi explained, shrugging.
The group make it back to the gym, sitting against the wall. “Well, let’s put a pin in that for now. Lev, truth or dare?”
“Dare! Dare!”
Kuroo had an evil grin on his face. “Bad choice.”
“I take it-“
“Nope.” Kuroo got up and glanced out the door of the gym. “Perfect timing. Go out there, pretend to be sad, and ask Yaku for a hug.”
Lev’s mouth dropped open. “Do you want me to die?” He whined. “Yaku San will MURDER me!”
“A dare’s a dare,” Bokuto shrugged, pushing Lev to stand up and stumble towards the door. The boys all followed, standing in the doorway to watch the scene take place.
Lev forced tears to form in his eyes, biting his lip hard to get his eyes to water from pain. There was no way this would work. “Yaku San,” he whimpered, making his way over to his elder. Yaku was walking back to the dorms to call it a night.
Yaku turned to face him. “Lev? I thought you were practicing?”
“I was but...” he frowned. “Yaku San... can I have a hug?”
“What? Why?” Yaku’s eyes scanned the taller boy’s face, trying to find a smirk or anything to prove that Lev was pulling his leg, but nothing was there. He just looked... sad.
Lev flopped down onto his knees. “I’ve been practicing so hard and I just... can’t get it.” He ran a hand through his hair. Was this even acting anymore? What he’s saying felt true. “It’s frustrating. I feel like I’m not getting any better.”
Yaku rolled his eyes, wrapping his arms around the now-shorter-than-him Lev. “Don’t tell anyone about this,” he grumbled. “But you are getting better. I can tell. I promise.”
“You mean it Yaku San?” Lev asked, his eyes shining as he looked up at the boy. “Thank you!”
“Yeah yeah, whatever.” Yaku pulled Lev’s collar, pulling him close. “If you tell anyone, I’ll kill you.”
“You’re the best Yaku San!” Lev exclaimed, running back to the gym to tell the boys about his successful dare.
Lev entered the gym, but was cut off before he could even open his mouth. “We saw. Please don’t talk about it. I never want to talk about it again,” Kuroo looked pale, shocked to see his teammate showing his soft side.
Lev rolled his eyes. “Fine. Bokuto, truth or dare?”
“I love that nobody’s asked Akaashi yet,” Tsukishima pointed out.
Kuroo shook his head. “Akaashi’s dares are probably even worse than yours. We couldn’t give him that power.”
“You’ll have to eventually,” Akaashi shrugged.
“Anywaus! I already did a truth, so dare!” Bokuto said excitedly, pulling the attention back to him.
“Okay, okay.” Lev smiled to himself. “I’ve seen this around online. So I dare you to play the pocky game with Akaashi!”
“The pocky game?” Hinata asked, turning his head in confusion.
“Yeah!” Lev felt around in his pocket, pulling out a pack of pocky. “You put one side of the pocky in you mouth and the other in someone else’s, then you see who eats the most.”
Hinata’s eyebrows raised. He didn’t really get it, but he figured he would once they played it.
“Akaashi?” Bokuto asked, looking over at the setter. “We don’t have to if you’re not comfortable.”
“It’s fine, but it should count as a dare for me too.”
“That’s fair,” Kuroo nodded. “Go on ahead then.”
Lev pulled out a pocky stick, handing it to Bokuto. Bokuto gently held out the stick towards Akaashi, who opened his mouth and let Bokuto put the end between his teeth. Then Bokuto followed suit, cheeks bright red, trying not to get too close to Akaashi quite yet.
But then the game begun, and they had to get closer to one another. Bokuto hates losing, but Akaashi hates it even more. Akaashi didn’t give in, letting his lips press against Bokuto’s as he took the last bite to win. He bit the piece off then pulled away, a bright grin on his face. “That’s a win for me, Bo.”
“Trust me, that was a win for him too,” Tsukishima teased, picking up on the dazed dreamy look in Bokuto’s eyes. “Akaashi, maybe you should go, since he’s in another dimension right now.”
“Okay. I’ll even be nice. Lev, truth or dare?”
“It has to be truth, right?”
Akaashi nodded. “Who at this training camp, not including your team or those of us right here, do you think you’d get along with best?”
Lev paused, taking a minute to think. “Hinata and Tsukishima’s little blonde manager! She seems so sweet.”
Tsukishima shook his head. “She’d be terrified of you.”
“She gets nervous around tall people,” Hinata explained. “But I think you two would get along well once she got over that!”
“Oo! You should introduce us at some point then. I need a new best friend!”
The room fell silent once again.
“...Bokuto? I think you have to go now, since I already told two dares,” Lev said awkwardly.
“Oh yeah! Kaashi counted as a dare too. Well then... I have the perfect question.” Bokuto’s eyes lit up as he turned to his setter. “Akaashi, truth or truth?”
Akaashi rolled his eyes playfully. “Hmm... I’ll have to go with truth.”
“Perfect! Did you want to play the pocky game with me?”
“What?” Akaashi’s ears turned a very light shade of pink.
“You know, did you want to?”
“Yeah. It wasn’t a bad dare at all.”
Bokuto frowned. “You know that’s not what I meant.”
“Okay... yes, Bokuto San, I wanted to play the pocky game with you,” Akaashi admitted, refusing to meet Bokuto’s eyes.
“Akaashi!” Bokuto squealed, pulling him into a hug, swinging him back and forth. “You’re so cute!”
“Okay, okay, but... I need to ask a question now, Bo...”
Bokuto let him out of his tight embrace, but scooted closer so that he could rest his hand on top of Akaashi’s. Akaaahi’s face had still not calmed down from the bright red flush that had risen on his cheeks from Bokuto.
“I’m not taking this alone. Tsukishima. Truth or dare?”
“You’re screwed,” Kuroo whispered under his breath.
Tsukishima frowned. “Dare.”
Akaashi turned to Hinata. “What’s the name of the boy with the freckles on your team?”
“Yamaguchi?”
“Him.” Akaashi turned to Tsukishima. “Ask him on a date,” he dared, a small smirk on his face.
“I-“
“Tsukki!? You like Yams?” Hinata gasped.
“I knew you weren’t the brightest...” Tsukishima muttered. He pulled out his phone. “Can I just call him? He’s probably ready for bed by now.”
“You two know each other’s schedules. How sweet,” Kuroo gushed.
Tsukishima called Yamaguchi, putting it on speaker.
“Tsukki?” Yamaguchi asked. “You still practicing?”
“Yeah, sorry, I’ll be back soon. But I had something to ask you...”
Lev started laughing, and Kuroo clasped a hand over his mouth to conceal the sound.
“Okay? You’re freaking me out.”
“Will you go on a date with me? Once we get back home?”
The line went silent. Then Yamaguchi started laughing. “You called to ask that? Of course I will.”
“Great. I’ll be back soon.”
“Okay! See you then! Love you!”
Tsukishima sighed deeply, glaring at the boys around him who stared at him in disbelief. “...Love you too Yams.”
He hung up, pressing his face into the palm of his hands. “Don’t talk.”
The boys burst out laughing. “Love you too Yams,” Hinata cooed.
“You guys are dating!?” Bokuto exclaimed. “You never told me.”
“We never told anyone. It was pretty obvious though,” he shrugged. “Anyways, Yams is waiting for me. Last one. Hinata, truth or dare?”
“Truth, I guess, but go easy on me.”
Tsukishima scoffed. “Oh, no way. Not now that you know about Yamaguchi and I. So? Do you like the King?”
“The King...?” Kuroo asked.
“Kageyama? Of course I like him! Wait- do you mean like, I like him like he’s a good setter, or I like him like we hang out and watch tv on the weekends, or I like him like sometimes I can’t focus when we play because his hair sticks to his forehead and frames his face so pretty and his skin just glows and he makes eye contact with me before he spikes but his eyes are just so pretty and that’s why I’ve had to close my eyes when I spike-“
“No. Nevermind. You don’t have to answer.” Tsukishima got up, walking to the door. “That was disgusting. Good night everyone.”
“You sure are leaving quickly,” Kuroo teased. “Got a date?”
“Yeah, I’ve gotta go cuddle with Yamaguchi. At least I had the nerves to ask out my childhood friend,” he winked, leaving the room.

Building a blanket fort with S/O
Tumblr media
Kuroo X GN!Reader
Warnings: None
Kuroo walks into the living room rubbing his wet hair with a towel fresh from the shower. He walks in seeing you attempting to tack a sheet to the ceiling but even on a step ladder you are too short to reach. 
“What are you going Chibi-Chan?” He asks. Looking around to see all she linen and pillows you own scattered across the living room floor. 
“Hey you’re out of the shower. Can you attach this?” You say. He moves around you hanging the towel over his shoulders. 
“You never said what you’re doing?” He says. 
“Oh, making a fort?” 
“I wasn’t aware that you are five.” He snickers. 
“Oh well we all can’t be old grumps like you.” You laugh grabbing and positioning the other side of the sheet. 
“I’m not an old grump.” He huffs. 
“And I’m not five.” You retort. “Just enjoy it, It’s going to be fun.
Twenty minutes later everything is ready where you want it. Kuroo sits down inside of the first waiting for you to come back with snacks and popcorn. You hand him the bowl so that you can sit down. Taking you spot next to him you snuggle close before starting the movie. You turn, placing a kiss on his cheek. 
“So what do you think of my idea now?”
“It’s a good idea… I guess.”  
“You guess?” 
“Fine you’re right. This is actually the best way to watch movies.” He says, pulling you in closer to him and kisses the top of your head.
Tumblr media
Kenma X GN!Reader
Warnings: None
Kenma is in the middle of a stream, he has headphones on his head as he hunches over focused on the game on screen. You have been watching from the other side of the room not wanting to be in the way.  As you sit there you are trying to figure out what you two should do when the stream is over. When the idea comes to you, you quietly sneak out of the room heading for your bedroom. You start pulling blankets and sheets out of the closet tossing them onto the bed and quickly get to work. A little while later when everything looks good to you you sneak back into the room taking your seat on the couch. Kenma turns muting his mic. 
“Everything alright?” He asks. “You left for a while?” 
You were surprised that he had noticed, but you knew he noticed then other people didn’t even when it doesn’t seem like it. 
“Yea just had some things to do.” 
He hums and goes back to his game. When the stream ends Kenma says his final goodbyes before turning to you. 
“How was your stream?” You ask and he just shrugs in response. “Well I’ve got a surprise for you.” You say moving closer practically bouncing. 
“Is this surprise related to the things you had to do earlier.” He asks.
“Yep” You grab him by the hand leading him to your bedroom. You open the door revealing the fort you built around your bed. 
“What’s this?” 
“It’s a fort.” 
“But why?”
“Just for a little fun. Doesn’t have to serve a purpose.” 
He doesn’t seem convinced but climbs inside with you anyway. You lay there and cuddle until you fall asleep.

Alright, I think I got everyone! There will be one more part on Wednesday, so if you would like to be tagged please let me know!
Part One
[!TRIGGER WARNING!: This chapter contains attempted purposeful triggering, frank discussion of character death, memory loss, regression and vivid flashbacks/allusions to post-trauma. Stay safe!]
He came back around slowly, still tasting the stale beer of last night's party like an unwanted echo in his mouth. But instead of waking up on the kitchen floor of his shared apartment, he was in a blindingly white room that looked suspiciously like an alien spacecraft. Jack's mind raced. Shit, maybe my roommate wasn't being a total spaz when he talked about getting probed, the young man realized with an undercurrent of fear. 
Incomprehensible beakers of things lined the walls of the room. Alright, maybe he should have paid more attention in his chemistry classes, but he could hardly be blamed for assuming that none of it would have practical uses!
Jack rattled his hands in the cuffs that secured him to the table, clearing his throat. Man, his head ached. This was why he needed to remember to drink a glass of water before passing out!
"S'cuse me? Uh, hello?" He called hesitantly. "Look, if the guys from Theta Alpha Phi put you up to this-"
A beautiful older woman rounded the corner into the room, observing him over her glasses. "Welcome back." Her voice was steel, and Jack worried his lower lip nervously. "Wasn't sure if you were going to make it for a little while."
The restraints around his wrists and ankles abruptly retracted into the table, leaving Jack to awkwardly stumble forward onto the floor. He quickly regained his footing, reaching up to seize the lapels on his usually-open shirt and finding instead that he was wearing some sort of...ski suit? Jumpsuit? Top Gun, I can dig it. 
God, she really was a good-looking woman. Ah, what the hell. Nothing ventured...
"Hello gorgeous. I'm Jack, what's your name?" He didn't give her any time to answer before he carried on with a disarming grin, "How would you like to ride home on a real cowboy?" Jack ran a hand through his usually-unruly hair and found it...weirdly tame. "I've got a six pack on ice and my roomie is out for the night so you can scream my name as loud as you need to, sugar!" He continued, ambling forward. The cheesy, blatant approach usually worked well for him. Sixty/forty split, or thereabouts.
She kept retreating as he advanced, and then she reached into her pocket. Jack braced himself for the rebuff, confused when she pulled out a Polaroid instead. "I hate to do this to you, Jack." She sounded like she meant it. There was Blue-Tack on the back of the Polaroid and handwriting that some portion of his brain vaguely recognized as his own, but he didn't get the chance to read it before she was showing him the faded image.
It took him a moment to realize that it was a picture of one of the girls he had dated in high school, but it looked like she had grown into a legitimately stunning woman. She was smiling fondly at whoever was taking the picture, and the entire image radiated playful energy. Jack cocked his head, a buzz of foreign sadness churning briefly in his chest before he raised his eyes to meet the...scientist's? Teacher's? "Where'd you get this picture? I ain't seen her in years! Shee-it, she got beautiful." The young man drawled. "I have been thinkin' about visitin' my folks again. Maybe I'll go 'round to her place too for some catchin' up."
The woman seemed startled, her sculpted brows raising and then dropping as she studied him intently. "You...don't remember...?"
"I remember her, yeah, we dated for a while in high school." Jack insisted. "Broke up senior year because I was leavin' for college, y'know how it is."
"This is your wife, Jack. Or she was, rather." 
His head throbbed, left temple lighting up with sudden agony. "Oh, shit." Jack grunted, holding the side of his head and grazing a bandage that he hadn't realized was there. "Damn, I must have hit my head real good when those pricks from Theta Alpha shoved me down the stairs. Hangover probably ain't helpin'." He grinned ruefully at her. "Guess you must be the one who patched me up. I ain't never asked out a doctor before, but there's a first time for everythin'. Can I pay you back with dinner?"
The woman appeared perturbed. "Jack. This is your wife." She repeated, waving the picture in his face. 
"I'm real sorry ma'am, but I ain't the marryin' sort." Jack replied bluntly, "I would definitely remember if someone like her was still my girlfriend. Or uh, had become my wife."
"What do you remember happening, Jack? Before…" she gestured vaguely. "This?"
Jack chewed on his lower lip in thought, tilting his head back to stare up at the featureless ceiling. "Uh, I remember…well, before they pushed me down the stairs, them TAP boys crashed my roommate's party…"
…
"'Pressions, I need you down here in the reconstruction laboratory." Ginger Ale's voice issued abruptly through your earpiece and you sat up a little straighter at your desk. 
"What's happened?" You asked softly, rising from your seat and making your way to the door. What with a majority of the population currently locked up in stacks of cages, enough to fill football arenas to their brim, you weren't doing much in the 'managing first impressions' area. Since you had fewer and fewer responsibilities, Ginger Ale had begun to lean upon you a bit more, especially as all able-bodied agents were deployed into the field to search for an antidote. With Tequila being incapacitated, it had made the assignment personal to many agents. 
It had been fascinating to find out that Statesman was technically an offshoot from the now utterly-decimated Kingsman agency. When the two surviving members of their group had shown up to the Statesman headquarters, it had caused quite the stir. 
"I need a favor." Ginger said, sounding tired. 
"Anything." You agreed before she could elaborate further, picking your way through the gravel in the courtyard as you headed to the warehouse where the massive casks of Statesman Reserve were stored to age. Once inside, your heels clicked loudly in the stillness of the temperature-controlled storehouse and you were certain that Ginger Ale could tell your location just from the noise alone. "I'll be with you in a moment."
"Don't promise me that until you know what I need."
Your brow furrowed. "Uh...okay." 
Once you had made your way through the somewhat labyrinthine halls of the Statesman underground facility, you found Ginger Ale waiting for you directly outside the sick bay. She was rubbing her temples. 
"Oh no, that's not a good sign." You quipped as you approached.
She looked up and her face bore an expression of long suffering. "You don't have to say yes to this, okay?" 
"Ginger, talk to me. What's up?" You asked worriedly, taking her arm and leading her off to the side of the doorway.
"'Pressions, Whiskey may not be...one hundred percent." She said carefully. "He didn't snap back into 'Whiskey mode' even though the nanites-"
"Wait, what happened to Whiskey?" You interrupted in concern, your heart hammering a foreign, panicky tattoo on your ribcage. "He was with the Galahads, I thought?"
"He got caught by a sniper." Ginger Ale grimaced. "Clean shot to the head."
"Jesus, no." You gasped. "I'm assuming one of the Galahads used his alpha gel?"
"Yes, and the nanites did their job perfectly. So he's stable, and conscious. Better than that, I would hazard, considering that he took a bullet to the head and he's walking and talking. The issue is that he's not really...Whiskey. At the point he's regressed to, he thinks he's still a dropout living with his college roommate." Ginger Ale pulled a picture out of an inner pocket. "It used to be that we could just trigger him to resume where he left off using the memory of his wife and unborn son, but it doesn't appear to be working this time."
You stared at her, mainly because of how casually she stated the fact that they triggered their agents back to 'normal' with traumatic memories, but also because you had a sneaking suspicion that you might be the reason why the aforementioned trigger no longer held the same weight for the field agent. 
You told yourself you would refuse to feel guilty about it. Whiskey had asked for your help and you had obliged. It was as simple as that.
"Now, I know your family has that rental cabin, and I also know that it's fairly secluded. If the Statesman organization could possibly, uh...commission the cabin and persuade you to take some paid leave until Jack is...himself again, or at least until the drug issue is sorted and we can devote more time and research to this situation, I…" Ginger Ale trailed off as Jack's head popped out around the doorway.
You were treated to a blatant once-over stare that seemed to last for a lifetime, his dark eyes studying you intently. "Have I...met you before?" Jack asked you, the hesitance in his tone making you briefly hopeful before he continued, "yeah, last night, in my dreams I think?"
You couldn't help your groan and eye-roll, laughing in spite of yourself. "Ugh, and how often does that line work for you?" You teased. 
"So far, never." Jack admitted. "But I've always held true to the belief that the sexiest thing a fella' can wear is confidence." He continued with a grin, "That and a high-quality hat." He glanced down the hallway. "So, is it just you two lovely ladies on this alien spacecraft, or what?" 
"Alien…?" You raised an eyebrow. "Okay Ginger, I'm convinced. I'll get the paperwork ready. But if you need anything-"
"I know. I'm glad that I can rely on you." She interrupted you gratefully, looking relieved. 
"You gals got any Midrin on you? My head is killin' me." Jack grimaced, palming over the gauze square attached to his temple even as he shamelessly watched you walk past him to the lab's computer.
"Midrin was discontinued almost ten years ago." You replied absently while you punched in your login and searched for the proper documents to send to the nearby printer. Commission for resources...ah! There you are.
"What, really?" Jack gawked at you. "Hell, I should probably tell my roommate to chuck his then, it must be way outta' date."
"Somehow, I doubt that will be a problem."
…
Jack balked a little when you stated that you would be driving, but he quieted down once you implied that the world may look a bit different than he recalled and that he didn't have a choice in the matter.
"He's not the first one to get put back a little wrong. The process isn't perfect," Ginger had told you. Of course you knew about Galahad senior, the Kingsman agent who had been shot in the head and returned merely wishing to study butterflies. "But I'll send you informational packets that he can sift through. Hopefully something will jog his memory."
Just riding up in the cask elevator had Jack worryingly pale, though getting him outside into the fresh air and sunshine appeared to perk him right back up. He was obviously doing his best to roll with the punches. You thanked whatever gods were listening that Champ had given you permission to take Whiskey's Bronco. Despite the technological advancements of your own personal vehicle that made it miles more convenient to use (you kissed your Bluetooth phone sync goodbye with a woeful sigh), the last thing you wanted was to cause Jack even more distress. Whiskey was mercifully a classic, no frills, no fuss man when it came to his preferred vehicle, even for being a secret agent.
You grabbed your go-bag out of the trunk of your car and walked over to the Bronco in the lot, barely holding back a laugh at Jack's obvious approval of the vehicle. He was running his fingers reverently along the tiny red pinstripe on the exterior, back and forth.
"If I get enough money for one of these beauts someday, God, it will be a sight." He mused, sounding wistful. "Have to get a better job first, though." He continued, as if reciting an oft-repeated mantra. 
"Ginger said you dropped out. What courses were you taking?" You asked curiously. Jack had never been very forthcoming with information about his past, so you seized the opportunity to glean a little insight into the normally tight-lipped agent.
"My parents want me to be a doctor." Jack answered you with a shrug. "I dropped out last semester. Still ain't sure how I'm gonna' break it to 'em." He bounded up into the passenger seat, drumming his fingers nervously on the edge of the door. "Can I ask for somethin' to eat? I'm fuckin' famished." He admitted, changing the subject.
"Yeah, what do you feel like?" You paused, wondering if visiting the establishment near your cabin would assist his memory. "Sandwiches? Pizza?"
"She drives a manual and she eats real food? Be still my goddamn heart!" Jack proclaimed dramatically.
"Easy now cowboy, flattery will get you everywhere!" You laughed.
He grinned back at you, but the smile soon faded. You noticed him studying himself in the side mirror, running a finger down his jaw and grimacing. "God, there's a lot more mileage on this face than I remember." He muttered, prodding the skin of his right temple to smooth out the pronounced crow's feet around his eye. As if working on muscle memory, he reached down without looking and popped open the glovebox to grab his sunglasses. He paused, like he noticed what he had done, then shrugged and slipped the glasses on. "How do I look, ma'am?" 
"Perfect."
What with the drug situation ravaging the world right now, the normally-bustling joint you favored was downright sleepy. Aside from the muted television over the counter, the only sign of life was the lone waitress who ushered the two of you in to sit at the counter. 
"I can turn that up if you'd like." She offered, nodding at the TV. "I just leave it silent when I'm alone because all the reports...well, they can grate on your nerves, y'know?"
"Nah, leave it off." You shook your head. "I'm full up on hearing about the topic at hand." 
"'Topic at hand'?" Jack repeated, looking confused. He had taken his hat off and placed it on the countertop, his fingers back to worrying the bandage on his head. 
You nudged him with your elbow. "Hey, cool it. You'll undo all of Ginger's hard work." You chided, and he jerked his hand away with an embarrassed chuckle. 
"Whups, sorry." He looked up at the menu, and then asked the waitress, "Ma'am can I get a cup of coffee and a hot brown with chicken? I'm downright famished." His smile seemed more genuine, somehow. You realized after a moment that it actually reached his eyes, warming them even further. You weren't sure if you had ever seen him smile like that. Maybe he had forgotten how.
You began to explain in an undertone after the waitress had bustled off to the kitchen, "so there's this...problem going on in the world right now. Big drug problem." 
"Yeah, no shit." Jack scoffed, taking a sip of the black coffee she had poured him. "Nixon started that shit, and Reagan's been on that shit for years. You ain't tellin' me nothin' I don't know."
"N...No, no no, this is different." You grimaced, leaning in a little closer. "I'm talking like, there was one person behind the whole thing and now a large chunk of the population is infected with a virus that will kill them because they used illegal drugs."
Jack stared at you, his coffee cup forgotten in midair between the counter and his mouth. "You...what, hell, all drugs?" He asked incredulously. "Weed? Coke? LSD? 'Shrooms? Everythin'?"
"Everything unregulated, yes." 
"I...God." The mug met the counter with a thump and Jack put his head in his hands. "Fuck, you're serious about this, ain't you?"
This was a far cry from the boardroom Whiskey who had insisted that Champ "couldn't make this personal" after it had been revealed that Tequila was infected. But then, people changed over time. Things happened. You imagined a secret agent would grow into a fair amount of detachment through their career, if only for the sake of their sanity.
"So what's gonna' happen to them? Is anyone doin' anythin' to help? Or is everyone just sittin' on their damn hands again, watchin' shit happen?" Jack growled. 
"Well, our friends are doing their best. I'm confident that they'll be able to pull off their mission." Even without the senior Statesman agent at their side, you added mentally. Jack stayed in his hunched-over position for several minutes after his food arrived and you finally nudged his elbow. "Hey, sour puss. C'mon, we only made this pit stop because you were hungry."
"I'm sorry, my head is...I'm havin' some trouble." He mumbled faintly, and you noticed that he had gone pale again. "Headache."
You felt a touch of remorse. Maybe it had been overly optimistic of you to assume that he might recall more clearly in this location that he had only visited once. "To go it is." You decided for him, tugging out your wallet. "Once we get up to the cabin, we'll settle in for however long. It'll be fine."
…
There was no power. 
You cycled back through the last month's bills in your head. You had definitely paid the electricity. You huffed out an annoyed breath. "There must be a tree down somewhere." You said aloud. 
Jack was already making a beeline for the table in the kitchen, the takeaway container quickly splayed open so he could dig into his food with newfound zeal. "So, what do we need to do?" He asked around his first mouthful. He hadn't even bothered to sit down.
"Well first, I'll call Ginger." You sighed, already dialing the reconnaissance specialist. "After that, I'll check the stove, the fridge--"
"What happened?" Ginger answered before it even had the chance to ring, her voice sharp.
"No no, nothing's wrong. Just the power is out. With everything being the way it is, it'll probably be down for a few days." You heard the rapid clicking of a keyboard. "Whoa hey, don't move stuff around, Ginger. We can survive just fine without power for a day or two." You assured her. It always made you feel guilty whenever Statesman resources were used on someone as inconsequential as yourself. 
"Are...are you sure? I really should be working on getting more information from the drones in Cambodia-"
"Absolutely, you have way bigger fish to fry. We can wait our turn on the outage route." You interjected firmly. "I'll use the car charger for my phone, so if you need anything you can still get in touch."
…
Jack did his best to tune out your conversation with the woman from the lab, the young man scanning the inside of the cabin as he ate. 
It was small, though not cramped. Behind him was the common room, separated from the deck by sliding glass doors. The ceiling overhead was simple untreated beams, interspersed with skylights that left sunny squares on the warm wood floors. 
There was a hallway to his left that he assumed must lead to at least one bedroom and the bathroom, but he wasn't particularly interested in snooping down that direction.
His gaze landed on the wood stove that was tucked into the lone river-rock corner upon a sturdy pedestal of bricks, eyes tracing the stovepipe up to where it pierced the wall to the outdoors. Jack left the table and meandered to the stove, turning the handle and popping the door open after a brief struggle. It was still full of old ash from the last use and he grumbled under his breath, grabbing the shovel and bucket from their cobwebbed resting place against the wall so he could give the stove a proper seeing-to.
You would think people had never heard of a damn chimney fire, the young man griped to himself, eventually standing with the half-full bucket and making his way outside. "Hey!" He called to get your attention, "where's your trash?" 
You waved a hand off in the direction of a waist-high wooden crate that no doubt housed the waste receptacles, out at the end of the rutted drive. On his way by, Jack slowed briefly to a halt to watch you talk into your...God, is that really what cellular phones looked like? 
You shot him an absent smile when you seemed to notice that he had paused and the young man felt his stomach lurch, what the hell? This all seemed so familiar, like he had done it before. 
His head hurt.
Waking up in a body that was damn near twenty years older, retrograde amnesia was what the...what Ginger Ale had called it. Jack scoffed to himself. The hell kind of name is Ginger Ale? Then, he winced. Jack Daniels, meet kettle.
So what had happened in between? Something must have happened to him. Ginger had implied that he and that girl he had dated in high school got married, which was...not something he had ever thought about having on his radar, if he was honest.
Unless…
A weird, uneasy suspicion began to take root in his chest. There was one scenario where he believed he would ask a woman to marry him, if only because it was the goddamn proper thing to do. 
Oh God, he felt sick to his stomach again. Something, a memory, was lurking just out of the light and he couldn't shake the burgeoning sensation of dread. It was as if his brain was playing tug-of-war, both pushing him towards the realization and dragging him away from it in equal measure.
Jack shook his head and dug his fingers in beneath the heavy wooden lid that shielded the waste containers from the elements (and snooping animals), shoving it up so he could empty the bucket into the ash can. Later, he promised himself, we'll tackle that shit later.
...
Jack appeared to be deep in thought as he carried on the task of emptying out the wood stove, so you simply left him to it as you did a quick check of everything else in the cabin. It looked like the power hadn't been out for too long, as the small fridge hadn't defrosted just yet, so you made a note to head down the road and pick up some ice at the amenities store. You kept an 'emergency' cooler under the counter for such an occasion as this. 
This cabin and the surrounding ones didn't lose power very often, but what with all the old trees around it tended to be inevitable once the winds got strong. Your parents had instilled the knowledge in you of how to properly maintain the property, and you were immensely grateful that no problem had cropped up yet that you hadn't been able to straighten out by yourself. 
Most of the vacation cabins that littered the nearby woodlands had been booked up for the summer, due to the prolific population of affluent wealthy who enjoyed them as an 'isolated retreat from civilization'. You were hard-pressed to think of an 'isolated retreat' that included a convenience store within literal walking distance of one's residence, but any port in a storm. 
Jack was oddly silent for nearly the entire walk down the road to the tiny store, his thumbs hooked through his belt loops as his fingers idly patted out an off-tempo rhythm on his thighs. "Penny for your thoughts?" You broke the quiet with your question, trying for a genial tone.
"I dunno', really. I've got a lot of 'em. How many pennies we talkin'?" He replied, his smile strained. "I just feel like I'm missin' somethin'...big. Obvious. And I...dunno' if I'll be happy about figurin' out what it is, y'know? Like there's somethin' in the back of my head, hollerin' at me, but I can't make out the damn words and I don't--I ain't sure if I really want to." Jack stared off ahead, his eyes shaded by the brim of his hat. "I've already been a fuck-up for most of my life, y'know. I can't imagine what bullshit I pulled later." 
This uncertain man was a far cry from the usual cocksure attitude you had come to expect from Whiskey. In a way, you weren't exactly surprised that his attitude may have been mainly bravado. Or it might just be that he had played the part for so long he started to believe it. You reached out carefully and he met you halfway, almost absentminded, instinct kicking in before his brain as he wrapped his hand around your wrist. 
It took a moment before Jack's fingers twitched, and then his shoulders went stiff. Just like Whiskey, you found yourself thinking. "Uh, sorry, I-" he began to awkwardly apologize. 
"It's okay." You murmured, rubbing your thumb over the back of his hand. "If you're okay, this is okay." 
"...okay." Jack's voice was barely a whisper, the man smiling gratefully and giving your hand a gentle squeeze. 
...
It was a beautiful night. 
Due to the lack of power in your cabin and the ones around it, the stars were clearly visible. You had brought the battery-powered radio out with you onto the deck, soft crackling static and faint music the backdrop to your after-dinner conversation. 
Jack was more at peace than he could recall feeling recently, the man content to watch your expressions in the light of the lone citronella candle that you had lit on the table. 
At ease, well-fed and comfortable, it was almost malicious how fast his mind began to twist everything for him. Jack Daniels, college dropout. Nothing to show for it at all. He'd crashed and burned so damn fast, there hadn't been time. And now, all of this, finding out that the world had gone to shit--
In the middle of his ruminations, something dragged him back to the present. A familiar song, jarring him out of his self-deprecating reverie. "You fill up my senses…"
His head aching again, Jack got a fleeting recollection of a kitchen in a tiny apartment. Faded, dingy gray subway tiles on the backsplash, yellow curtains framing the window over the sink, her yelling at him, "I hate it when we fight, Jack," eyes snapping with fury but resigned and no, no, something is wrong-
"What's wrong?"
It took him a minute to realize that it was you asking him aloud, not his brain screaming at him. Jack grimaced, pressing his fingers to the bandage. "This song, I...I know it."
"I mean, it's John Denver." You said in a deadpan tone. "The guy oozes questionable sweater choices, denim and radio-friendly vibes. I'd be more surprised if you didn't know it."
"When she and I...we had moved in together. And this…it was playin' while we were arguin'." Jack's head was pounding. The kitchen had always felt too small, though it was the perfect size for her. They fought. About little things, and then bigger things. His gambling, her drinking. What a couple. Jack shoved his chair back from the table on an impulse, getting to his feet. "C'mere." He ordered, extending a hand to you
You raised an eyebrow, looking up at him. "Why?"
"Dammit woman, just-" Jack tangled his fingers with yours, giving your arm a light tug. "C'mere." He pleaded.
You obliged begrudgingly, obviously comfortable in your current position and unwilling to move. But once you were upright you didn't seem to have any reservations about him swaying you back and forth in time to the music, your head on his chest like it belonged there and your hands tucked into the sleeves of your large sweatshirt. 
"...like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean…" the song carried on, sweet and calm. Jack rested his chin on the top of your head, closing his eyes and just letting the faded memories wash over him.
"...I can't do this shit anymore." He had whispered into her hair, his voice hoarse. "All we goddamn do is fight and neither of us change and I'm fuckin' sick of this shit." He had continued to rock the both of them to and fro in that tiny kitchen, as if to soothe her. 
"Oh, you think I'm not sick? I've been sick!" She threw it right back at him hotly, her fists clenched on his chest like she wanted to beat the piss out of him. He probably deserved it. "Jack, you're the one who needs to change! You're the one who's the father of my fucking baby, why don't you start goddamn acting like it!"
Jack's eyes flew open. Baby? He scoured his mind frantically, every memory he turned up so frustratingly piecemeal! 
Baby, a baby, son? Blue crib, blue walls, my son? Married, needed to get married, can't have a baby without getting married, her parents hate me, my parents are already disappointed, have to elope--
And then everything ground to a halt. It was like his memory hit a wall, leaving him confused and almost raw with uncertainty. He needed more, damn it! He exhaled raggedly, making you look up at him in concern.
"Jack? Are you okay?" Your query was so quiet, like you didn't want to disturb him.. 
"I just...my uh, my joints are complainin'. Guess I let myself sit for too long." He fibbed, smiling down at you in an attempt to distract you from his obvious turmoil. "Thanks for the dance," Jack hesitated, an unfamiliar pet name lingering on the tip of his tongue, "cherry pie."
...
Jack meandered to lean with his arms crossed on the porch railing, his head tipped back to look up at the sky for a time. "Have I...been here before?" He asked out of the blue. "I feel like...it's weird to ask, but I feel like you and I have...I feel like I've been here before. With you." He finally managed to get the words out.
"Well, yes." You admitted. "You came to me because you needed help."
"And did you?" Jack cocked his head to the side. 
"Did I what?"
"Help."
You hesitated to answer him, mulling it over. Because in the moment, it seemed like you had. Whiskey had left your care an obviously happier man, but…
If the memory of his pregnant wife, the memory of losing her had been established as his failsafe, it was downright irresponsible of him to have removed that trigger without instating a new one first. Ginger Ale hadn't known, and now Statesman was down their senior field agent in the middle of an incredibly dangerous and tenuous maneuver. The health and safety of countless people hung in the balance and technically, technically (by your reasoning, anyway), it was your fault that Statesman was unable to put their best foot forward in this endeavor.
But…
"I think so." You said softly. "You hung onto something from your past that hurt you, Jack. Something that weighed your body down. I guess you finally got tired of carrying it with you."
Jack's smile was slow, but it lit up his face yet again in the way that Whiskey's never had. "Well good, then! I'm glad you helped me out." He shook his head ruefully. "I just feel like I've been here before. This point in time. It's like...like I'm gettin' the chance to do somethin' over, but I don't know what the hell it is. I'm scared, feel like I'm gonna' fuck somethin' up on accident." He admitted quietly. "It was here, wasn't it? Where you helped me?"
"Yes. This cabin is a safe environment for anyone that needs it."
"I can tell. It's...peaceful." He drawled, one boot hooked over the other as he shifted his weight against the railing. A hand wandered to your arm, his warm palm rubbing your shoulder absently. "I just hope that I can...do whatever it is folks need me to do." Jack murmured. 
His hand stayed on your arm for a good long while, the two of you silently looking at the stars.
"Hey, uh," Jack spoke up suddenly, "your...helpin', I…"
You glanced over at him, the stark white bandage on his temple serving as a stern reminder that this was not Whiskey, but simply Jack Daniels. The man, not the senior agent. A college dropout in a dead-end situation. 
"Do you help even if a person don't need helpin'?" He asked pointedly, an eyebrow hitched upwards as he observed you.
You opened your mouth, uncertain of what you would even say, but you were suddenly blinded by the motion sensor light blazing to life overhead. Jack pulled you into his body defensively, once again seeming to act on muscle memory. You watched through squinted eyes as he reached down for weapons that he didn't have, his hand flying to his hip. "Hey, don't worry." You mumbled against his chest. "The power just came back on, that's all."
"Jesus fuck that shit is bright!" Jack squawked, his voice pitched high. "Thought I was gettin' abducted by aliens again!"
"Again?" You couldn't help your laughter at how ridiculous he sounded. The man began to laugh along with you after a moment, his expression sheepish in the brilliant Illumination.
"Yeah, yeah, get your kicks." He growled good-naturedly, rumpling your hair. "You're lucky you're cute."
You grabbed hold of his hand, tugging him to follow you back inside. "C'mon, let's make sure nothing got overloaded." You urged. 
Even when he could have let go of your hand, you noticed he continued to hang on.

Voluptas Noctis Aeternae {Part 7.5}
Tumblr media
*Severus Snape x OC*
Summary: It is the year 1983 when the ordinary life of Robin Mitchell takes a drastic turn: she is accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Despite the struggles of being a muggle-born in Slytherin, she soon discovers her passion for Potions, and even manages the impossible: gaining the favor of Severus Snape. Throughout the years, Robin finds that the not quite so ordinary Potions Professor goes from being a brooding stranger to being more than she had ever deemed possible. An ally, a mentor, a friend... and eventually, the person she loves the most. Through adventure, prophecies and the little struggles of daily life in a castle full of mysteries, Robin chooses a path for herself, an unlikely friendship blossoms into something more, and two people abandoned by the world can finally find a home.
General warnings: professor x student, blood, violence, trauma, neglectful families, bullying, cursing

______________________________
A glimpse into the fourth week of travels (the third week of July):
The lightning cut through Robin's vision, making the bright day even more unbearable to the eye than the white sky was anyway. The thunder that followed broken seconds later was a sound to match, piercing and swallowing every possibility of thought. It was then when the skies opened up, and the rain came pouring down onto the fields of the heat washed Normandy. This was their first expedition to a country beyond the UK… and of course it had to go anything but smoothly. Not only had it been terribly windy all morning, but now it was storming and wet as well, making things even more dreadful for Robin and Snape as they hurried along the most desolate countryside road in all of France. Had they known they would end up here in the middle of nowhere, they probably would have gone for a different theory after all. But now it was too late, they had already come too far to turn around. They were going to see this through now.
After ten minutes in the brutally whipping rain, they finally came across a saving grace in the form of a small bus shelter (or whatever it was supposed to be), and it didn't even take a second of thought to know that they would wait here for the storm to pass. Getting drenched wasn't the worst of it, really, but being wet and out in the wind was a doom to be freezing all too soon. And they still had some miles left to go, on to a place they couldn't apparate to if they knew neither its address nor appearance.
"I hate France." Robin grumbled as she let the water fade from her clothes and hair without wasting any time in the newly gained dry space. But shedding the water unfortunately left her feeling no warmer than before.
"Have you actually seen any of the country before today or is your judgement merely based on getting caught in the rain right now?"
"It's based on me freezing right now! And even more on the stupid French books I had to translate in order to get anywhere with the stupid research on the stupid mushroom growing at the end of this stupid road!"
"You skipped breakfast again, didn't you?"
"What does it matter… It's too bloody cold to eat anyway." Robin crossed her arms over her chest with a quiet huff, trying to keep herself from shivering, but it was of no use. She did see his point though, perhaps she really was being cranky… but being cold was way worse than not eating breakfast! There had been more important matters to attend to that morning. Getting to bloody France, for example.
"I would still like you to eat." He said calmly but in determination, making Robin sigh in defeat in return. There really was nothing she wouldn't do if he asked it of her, which was equally scary as it was astonishing. Perhaps she felt this way because she knew that he would never ask anything of her that would be to her disadvantage. Perhaps she simply trusted him that much. Bloody hell, she most definitely did, there was no 'perhaps' needed. And if he wanted her to eat, as ridiculous a request as it might seem, she would relent to his wish.
"Have breakfast with me, then." Robin stated rather than asked, with a certain glance up at him now rather than down at the ground. If he could command her to his wish, perhaps she could do the same with him. "I'd bet you haven't eaten either."
"Very well." He was surprisingly quick to agree, and Robin couldn't help giving him a small smirk before first digging out the large blanket from her backpack first, then her entire storage of all kinds of food. Since living in a tent, she had gotten used to buying and thus carrying around quite enough provisions for multiple days, or in this case, for a neat breakfast for two. She would gladly share with him the little she had, without even a doubt. And as long as he didn't know just how little that really was, she believed he would gladly accept it in return.
Less than a minute later they were sitting side by side, a little warmer already from the (of course entirely accidental yet undeniably comfortable) closeness between them, and somehow Robin found herself not hating France quite so much anymore. Still, now, there were two things that were making her shiver.
"Still cold?" Snape asked in return, and Robin could have laughed at how very aware he was of her and yet how unaware of everything beyond. It was her luck that he was quite as bad at interpreting the little accidental tells of her emotions as she was at hiding them. He knew so much, and yet he knew so little at the same time… Always the ambivalence, that man.
"Quite, yes." She finally made herself reply in a breathless smile, while keeping her eyes on the tartan pattern of the blanket beneath her. She'd had that old thing for ages already, but never quite gotten around to changing its colour to something less posh. By now and in a way, she almost liked that it looked quite so terrible.
"Well, in that case I would suggest that you find yourself that black jumper you likely are keeping in your bag currently. High collar, tight sleeves, loose waist… you know which one."
"I didn't know you were so knowledgeable about my wardrobe." Robin chuckled in sincere amusement. "I could indeed wear that one, but that would be terribly unfair."
"Why, pray tell, would it be unfair to wear a jumper when you are cold?"
"Because you don't have a jacket either! I'd feel terrible to be all warm and cozy and leave you freezing by yourself."
"That's ridiculous."
"It's not!"
"It is."
"Well, then tell me in all honesty that you aren't cold." Robin quirked an eyebrow up at him defiantly. "If you're feeling perfectly fine and warm as it is, I'll shut up immediately and put on my jumper without any further discussion."
"I won't lie to you to soothe your bad conscience, Robin. I will not lie to you at all."
"So you are cold."
"Yes." He replied simply, truthfully. "But that does not by any means justify that you should be freezing as well, so do put on your jumper now or I will be gone in a second."
Geez, he totally knew that his threat of leaving was the only functioning leverage he really had on her these days… Insufferable idiot. With a small sigh and an even smaller smile Robin rolled her eyes rather visibly, then grabbed her backpack indeed and started roaming through its depth in practiced search, though not for the jumper in question. What she easily dug up instead was better by far; a warm quilt that had been serving as her duvet at night ever since she started living in her tent. But he didn't need to know that. Without asking for approval, Robin simply draped the huge quilt around his shoulders first, with little effort while sitting up on her knees, then crossed her legs beneath herself and wrapped the remaining fabric around her own body as well. 
Now that was better already… and he didn't make any obvious attempt to protest either. A good chunk of nervousness she hadn't known she'd held onto fell off her mind and heart in an instant, and she found herself smiling before she knew. The blanket was large enough by far, they didn't have to sit too closely together to be covered in warmth, but still before long their arms were miraculously touching, then their entire sides, both resting against each other without a word.
"Breakfast in Normandy… I didn't think I'd live to experience that." Robin sighed after a while of comfortable silence, quirking an eyebrow up at Snape with a smirk, and her heart skipped a beat when he barely visibly smiled down at her in return. "Without being cold, it's actually quite nice here."
"Then let us hope that the storm lasts long enough to have a coffee as well."
"Or three."
"You truly are terrible."
"You probably meant to say insufferable."
"My point exactly."

Opposites Do Attract
Description:  “a scenario where tsukki is in love with a person who is completely opposite of him and she is cute and shy and all”
Requested: Yep Yep! This was a fun one to write. I adore Tsukishima. So whatever it is I am writing for him, I am going to enjoy doing so 110,000% Absolutely rambled on and ended up writing wayyy more than I anticipated.   Hope you all enjoy! ~Admin Crow  💚
        ___________________________________________________
Tumblr media
It started off rocky. Let’s be honest, Tsukishima Kei isn’t the nicest person up front. He’s blunt, he can be a total asshole sometimes, saying what’s on his mind without a care in the world who it affects. 
So when you first met it wasn’t all ‘rainbows and butterflies and perfection.’ No, it was you accidentally bumping into him, causing his brand new headphones to fall to the floor with a crash and Tsukki going off thinking it was Hinata who had ran into him. His words of anger flying out of his mouth faster than they ever had, but were immediately cut off when he saw you standing there, tears in your eyes and the apology dead on your lips. He didn’t even get the chance to apologize before you had turned and ran off, fighting off tears at the harsh words he had directed at you for an accident. 
Despite that first interaction, it definitely led down a different path than expected. Both of you finding wanting to find ways to apologize to the other. Tsukki grumbling at the idea of having to apologize, I mean it wasn’t HIS fault you weren’t looking where you were going. Nor was it your fault that Hinata had been buzzing around him constantly that he assumed it was the little orange haired tangerine. But the idea of apologizing in general had been difficult for him to accept. 
You on the other hand, were worried you had broken his headphones and just waited for him to unleash his anger again, demanding you buy him a new pair. So to hopefully prevent that from happening, you decided to purchase a gift card for him that he could use on his music however he wanted. 
The next day you had snuck it into his locker with a sticky note attached to it saying sorry with a cute little chibi drawing apologizing. You tried not to be super obvious about it all day, peeking looks at him during class to see if he seemed different after getting your gift. 
When Tsukki did find your gift he was honestly surprised. You had no reason to buy him a gift, but because you had bought him one, he definitely had to say something to you now. So at lunch, he swallowed his pride and saught you out. 
You weren’t difficult to find. Not when your closest friend happened to be Yachi, which oddly made sense to Tsukki considering you and Yachi seemed to have similar interests and personalities. 
“You didn’t have to buy me a gift. My headphones are fine.”
The sound of Tsukki’s voice coming out of nowhere had startled both you and Yachi. Yachi immediately relaxed and said hello to him, while his gaze remained fixed on you. 
Blushing you anxiously played with a strand of hair and quietly responded “I felt bad about knocking them onto the ground and wanted to make up for it somehow..I hope the gift will make up for it!” 
The sincerity in your voice and the cute way your face turned light pink with a blush caused Tsukki to share the feeling, a blush rising to his face in response. “L-like I said, you didn’t have to buy it for me...but it will go to good use so thanks.” he responded quickly, before darting off to the other side of the cafeteria where he could process what just happened. Not wanting to stick around to be confronted by Yachi asking out loud why he had run off like he did.
After that interaction Tsukki couldn’t get you out of his head. Had you always been that cute? He didn’t really pay that much attention to others in his class, and up until then, you were included in that. And when Yachi started inviting you to hang out with her more and more, including inviting her to volleyball practices, Tsukki’s thoughts seemed to almost revolve around Volleyball, sometimes school, but mostly you. 
It became obvious to some of the upperclassmen that Tsukki had developed a crush on the cute, shy first year that had started coming to practices almost daily. And it was even clearer to them that you had a crush back. But if they didn’t do something to help out, it was obvious that the two of you would remain oblivious to each other’s feelings. So a few weeks into this oblivious pining between you two, they decided to take action. 
It was the end of practice on a Saturday morning. You had plans with Yachi and Hinata to go to the mall after practice. So you were in your f/c t-shirt dress and a cute pair of shoes. Your hair done in a way that complimented your look. You had even put on a tiny bit of make up that made you look even cuter when you blushed. Tsukki had clearly noticed your outfit and it was obvious that he was distracted. And because of that, Sugawara Koushi had decided enough was enough. 
When the boys where in the locker room after cleaning up from practice, Suga nudged Daichi before throwing an arm over the tall first year, bringing him down slightly to his own height. Suga grinned at the first year “So Tsukishima, tell us, what do you think of F/N-chan’s outfit today? She looked super cute in that dress right? And how she did her hair?” 
Tsukki fought the urge to blush and groan at the same time. On the one hand, it was pretty obvious he thought you looked adorable. On the other, there was no way Suga was asking out of the kindness of his heart. Tsukki adjusted his glasses to hide the blush fighting to rise before clearing his throat “I mean it’s not like we haven’t seen her in street clothes before. So what makes what she is wearing today any different?” There. That was a neutral enough remark that it should be accepted. 
Of course, Suga was only setting the trap with his comment. No way was he walking away today without Tsukki at least attempting to talk to you about his obvious feelings. “Well I think you should tell her that you think she looks cute.”
Sputtering Tsukki gave his senpai an incredulous look, obviously caught off guard at the jab at his growing feelings for the girl. “No way. Whatever you are trying to get at it’s not going to work. Besides, we are total opposites so it would never work anyway.” 
Tsukki thought with shutting it down by bringing up that comment, he would be left alone by his pushy vice captain. But no, that comment only drew a devilish grin from the silver haired setter before he turned to the other first years. “Hey Hinata, you are hanging out with F/N today right? Make sure to tell her that  Koushi Senpai thinks she looks super adorable today okay?” 
Tsukki’s eyebrow twitched at the response Hinata gave, but mostly at the thought that Hinata would be the one telling F/N that Sugawara thought she looked cute. Koushi senpai? Since when were they on first name basis...?
To top it all off, Daichi’s laugh from behind Tsukki caught his attention and drew him out of his quickly rising questions. Causing him to turn and look at the captain. “You know Tsukishima. In some cases, opposites do attract, so I think you should take that chance to talk to her. I bet she would really enjoy it.” he added with a wink before opening the clubroom door, breaking the silence of the secret conversations going on in the club locker room. 
Tsukki let out a sigh. Not because he was annoyed. But because they were right. And he knew they wouldn’t stop badgering him until he talked to you. Which to be honest, sounded more and more like a good idea the longer he thought about it.  
Grabbing his bag, Tsukki tossed it over his shoulder while telling Yamaguchi not to wait for him today. He had an adorable, shy, and extremely cute girl to go find and attempt to talk to. Who knows? Daichi and Suga could be right. Opposites could attract, but he wouldn’t know if he didn’t try now would he?

(Femme is french for female. I mean NO offense to any of my fellow LGBTQIA+ community when I use this term) The Year is 3019. Some Females (Femme) were preserved cryogenically in an effort to prevent extinction. Using Elite computer algorithms a Femme is matched with her Male applicants to find the perfect match. Male applicants are usually selected whilst in school and housed together to create trust before they are matched with their femme.

At eighteen everyone takes a blood test to find out their blood types. A, B, or O. Each blood type represents the person’s secondary gender Alpha, Beta or Omega and can be Dominant (+) or Recessive (-). When small thin Yoongi receives his letter he doesn’t expect A+. He knew there was no way he was an Alpha especially not a dominant.
[Hope in the Sheets]  ☆♡★♤♔➵
You held many titles: his neighbour, colleague, wingman… well, more likely a wing-woman, yet most importantly, you were his best friend. You had been friends since you were born. Between the two of you, you were younger; barely, but he never let you forget it. He always seemed to ruffle your hair and tease you, which could get rather annoying but he made up for it by treating you to things. What if a drunken one night stand between you and your best friend Hoseok leads to more complicated situations? Your reckless twenties are cut short as you find yourself suddenly responsible for something a little more.

A/N: Am reposting two of my shelved discontinued fem!Hinata fics from my old blog here (for exposure ig? Also I didn't delete them completely there, they're just posted privately lol); for those who've read the original post before and wondering why this blog repost another blog's work, supplies~!! OP here, filling this blog with some Haikyuu content from last October. Enjoy ^^;; ALSO DO NOT SEND HATE ORZ smh
Tumblr media
My Masterlist
Tumblr media
Prologue | 01 | Omake 01
tho it doesn't looked like an extra chapter at all smh ahaha
Omake 01
wc: 1.9k words
warning: mentions of thigh touching (and probs kidnapping but not implied), a bit of OOC-ness, a few ‘damn’ mentions.
note: indented paragraphs -> flashbacks
Tumblr media
*NOTE: since purple/violet is unavailable via PC (using desktop beta lol), I'll use yellow for Ushijima instead.
“…ta…nata…Hinata!”
A female’s voice continued calling her from her deep slumber.
The faint smell of ammonia wafted in the air.
Eyelids slowly opened as she regained consciousness.
“Ah, thank goodness you’re awake now, Hina-chan!”
“Yachi-san?” She groggily glanced at her friend.
“I’ll tell the others she’s awake!” Suddenly, the owner of that voice earlier, Date Tech’s manager, Nametsu Mai, stood up and headed outside the door. Yachi nodded her thanks.
“W-what happened… Where am I? Is this not our—the managers’—room?” she asked.
Hinata started to sit up from where she was laying but wobbled.
Luckily, Yachi and their second-year senpai Kinoshita Hisashi helped her out and gently positioned their fellow member on one corner of the classroom-slash-makeshift sleeping area.
Her senpai sheepishly replied to Hinata, “This is Date Tech’s sleeping quarters. We were having our first practice match of the day, against them, when Sugawara-san called to inform that they’ve found you together with Shiratorizawa, and their captain carried you on—“
The decoy shivered, thinking about the restroom incident hours ago.
“—and fainted on Ushijima’s shoulder. Ma~n, Suga-san’s so furious back then Kageyama had to stop him from killing them.” Kinoshita chuckled.
“Your room’s kinda far away from where they found you, so the managers decided to drop you off here since it’s the nearest one.”
Hinata sweatdropped, a bit embarrassed.
“Ah… thank you, and sorry for whatever inconvenience I have caused earlier…”
Yachi shook her head. “No, no, it’s fine! You’ve done nothing wrong, Hina-chan~,” she grinned at the orange-haired girl.
Smiled back also.
Then she suddenly facepalmed. “I forgot about the practice match! Is it still going yet?”
“It finished an hour ago, we lost—2-1,” a scowling Kageyama answered, trudging towards the three.
“K-k-kageyama…!!!” the female middle blocker blanched with fear, hands gripping the blanket draped on her lap, while the raven-haired setter shot a menacing glare at her, which she averted. “I’m… I’m sorry for—“
“Are you alright?” he quietly asked Hinata, his hand perched on her head.
His deep blue eyes swimming with concern and worry.
She felt a slight flush on her cheeks while meeting his gaze.
“H-hai, I’m fine!” the chibi assured Kageyama. “Nothing to worry about, Bakayama-kun~!”
And she smiled at him.
The boy suddenly became hot and turned to look away from her, hiding his flustered face with the back of his hand.
“H-hinata boke… idiot,” Kageyama stuttered, his heart thumping louder than normal.
Ahh… he sure is whipped for Hinata, that Kageyama boy, Kinoshita thought, shaking his head.
While their blonde manager only giggled.
Recovering from his blushing mess a while ago, the raven-haired setter took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes at Hinata and quipped.
“But I guess you do know that we lost in the match earlier because of your carelessness around your surroundings, right, dumbass?”
He smirked.
This pissed the female decoy and threw in some punches at Kageyama, which he constantly dodged. “Shut up, you!! I said I’m sorry, alright?!”
“No, you did not!”
“Yes, I did, Bakayama!”
There goes their ‘lovers’ quarrel’ again… hahaha…
“Hinata!” Sugawara’s sweet voice boomed inside the room as he entered together with their team’s captain Sawamura Daichi. Beside them tagged along Hinata’s friend from Date Tech, fellow middle blocker Aone Takanobu.
“Ah, Sugawara-san!” The first-year idiot duo stopped their bickering when the gray-haired setter all of a sudden hugged her.
Hc’d Suga and Hinata are chummy-chummy but in a mother/daughter sort of way.
He is, after all, Karasuno’s Sugamama.
“Honey, are you alright now? Did those Shiratorizawa bastards hurt you? Don’t lie to me!” She blinked in reply, baffled.
He might cry in an instant now—
“Oi, Suga, calm down,” Daichi said, drawing circles at the fellow third-year’s back to calm him down.
Aone then stepped closer besides Hinata and sat with his legs crossed, his eyes gazing at hers like Kageyama’s.
“Are you okay?” he asked her, his deep voice nearly startled both Hinata, Yachi and Kinoshita.
Date Tech’s one-third of the famous Iron Wall is a man of few words, and his replies were mostly grunts, hand gestures, and nods.
So it’s rare for him to speak, or ask a question, especially to a member of the opposite sex—or, in this case, at Karasuno’s Number 10. At Hinata Shouyou.
She held both hands at Aone’s now flustered cheeks, and grinned.
“I’m okay now, Aone-san! Don’t worry too much~ nn?” She tilted her head while looking at him.
C-cute… she’s cute, No-Eyebrows thought to himself. Even the other boys thought so, too.
Then he nodded.
Hinata patted his shoulders. “Good!”
Ahhh the power of friendship, feat. AoHina—
“Say, Hina-chan,” Yachi looked at the orange-haired girl. “Care to say to us why you fainted on Ushijima-san’s shoulder?”
The chibi stilled herself, cheeks starting to get a bit red. Kageyama noticed it.
“A-a-ano!! H-hinata-chan, it’s o-okay if you d-don’t have to tell us! S-sorry for asking such a foolish q-question—“
“Yachi-san, calm yourself down, too—,” the captain sweatdropped.
Looking at the people around her, Hinata slowly opened her mouth to speak.
“My thighs are kind of ticklish when being touched,” she muttered, face in an embarrassed state.
“Ha?” “Ticklish?”
“He—Ushijima-san touched the back of my thighs, but just to keep myself from falling down his shoulder!” the female middle blocker said aloud, pouting. “That’s why I… f-fainted earlier.”
Her partner remembered the face she made while being carried on Ushijima Wakatoshi’s shoulder.
“USHIJIMA-SA—hyaah! …P-please… stop—“
A vein pop ticked on the raven-haired setter’s face, his jawline twitching slightly.
Kageyama’s fists gripped hard, his face a big scowling mess.
Damn that Ushiwaka guy—
Another dark aura emitted on another corner as vein pops ticked on both Dadchi and Sugamama.
Wearing their scary faces.
Both Hinata, Yachi and Kinoshita panicked, while Aone furrowed his brows.
“Did you bring some shovels, Daichi?”
“They’re inside the bus compartment, Suga.”
“Good. We’re digging some graves for some perverted volleyball dorks to bury down later—wanna help us, Kageyama?”
———
Meanwhile, at Shiratorizawa’s side of the training camp, the members were at the sidelines, taking a break from practice when—
“ACHOO!!!” Tendou sniffled for the nth time already ever since coming back to the gym with Ushijima after the incident with Karasuno’s Number 10. “Uh, yizz…”
“Tendou-san, are you really alright?” their team’s first-year ace-in-the-making Goshiki Tsutomu asked, his face scrunched with worry. “You’re sneezing constantly.”
The redhead shook it off with a wave of his hand in reply, and smiled grimly.
“Yeah, I’m a-OK, thanks for your concern, Tsutomu-kun!”
“Oi, are you sick?” Shiratorizawa’s team mom third-year setter Semi Eita stared at his fellow third-year teammate with disgust. “If you are, please stay away from us! We don’t wanna get infected by your cold… Goshiki, don’t go near him!” “Eh? But, senpai—“
Tendou narrowed his eyes on him. “Semi-Semi, if I do have a cold, I will first go straight at ya and share my germs, duh!”
“DON’T CALL ME BY THAT STUPID NICKNAME, YOU IDIOT!” the team mom seethed, throwing a pack of tissues at the middle blocker in reply, hitting his arm.
A quarrel ensued at Shiratorizawa—
“Okay, guys, that’s enough! Save your bickering later at lunch period,” another third-year, Oohira Reon, chided and managed to stop both Tendou and Semi from tearing off their heads.
While the rest of the team just sighed and/or watched at a distance.
“Ano sa…”
Some of them turned their heads at the semi-deep voice of second-year starting setter Shirabu Kenjiro.
Idk how to describe voice ranges ‘cept high-pitch, deep blah blah sorry—
“Tendou-san, you mentioned earlier that you and Ushijima-san met Karasuno’s Number 10, right?”
“Aye~ we have!” the redhead then nudged Ushijima, who was sitting near him, on the side. “Right, Wakatoshi-kun?”
He nodded. “Un. We met Hinata Shouyou early this morning, outside the gym.”
“EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! You two met that cute sunshine already upon arrival!?!!” Both their libero, Yamagata Hayato, and middle blocker, Kawanishi Taichi, squawked at their captain.
Their faces looked like (‘◉⌓◉’), with Kawanishi gripping the collar of Shirabu’s shirt, shaking wildly.
“T-taichi, stop shaking me, goddammit—!” Whack!
Said second-year middle blocker started to wail in a dramatic way.
“WHYYYYYYYYYYY—!!”
Dunno how to grasp Kawanishi’s personality here tbh so stfu dejk—
“We were about to bring her here back though…” Then Ushijima’s usual stoic face darkened a bit.
“…if only those Karasuno setters didn’t show up.”
“Ah, that Kageyama guy and their vice-captain, isn’t it? Number 2?” Shirabu pointed out. “That guy’s really scary even though he has the face of an angel; their captain also.”
Oohira asked, “Wait… so you two attempted to kidnap the girl?”
“No, no, ‘kidnapping’ will only cause us trouble,” Tendou said, waving his hand in a disapproving way.
“Let’s call it ‘luring her with some sweets then put her inside a potato sack’—“
“ARE YOU A DOWNRIGHT LOLICON!?!!” Semi screamed straight at the Guess Monster’s face, pissed at his earlier statement.
Tendou vs Semi, Round 2–
“I-I heard from Date Tech’s Koganegawa-san that Hinata-chan fainted on you, Ushijima-san,” Goshiki stammered, red tinge on both his cheeks due to embarrassment, maybe? “Is that true?”
Ushiwaka nodded curtly. “Ye—“
“EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! SHE DID WHAAAAAAAAAAT!?!!” Both Yamagata and Kawanishi squawked again, interrupting his response.
Their faces now looked like (● ˃̶͈̀ロ˂̶͈́)੭ꠥ⁾⁾, with Kawanishi again gripping the collar of Shirabu’s shirt, shaking wildly.
“KAWANISHIIIIII!” An uppercut.
Chaos ensued inside the Shiratorizawa Academy (High School Division) Men’s Volleyball Club.
Their captain declared to himself, his olive-colored eyes shone with determination:
We will take Hinata Shouyou here, in Shiratorizawa. She should have (come here). Whatever the consequences be.
“WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU SLACKING OFF, YOU NIMRODS!!! GET YOUR ASSES BACK TO PRACTICE!!!!”
“HAI!!!!”
———
How did the supposed-to-be ‘rumor’ begin? It all started when…
“Aaaarrrggghhh!! This is not right, Ryuu!”
“Huh? What d’you mean ‘not right’, Noya?”
“I want to sit next to our cute kouhai Shouyou on the bus earlier, but it’s always that bastard Kageyama who gets to sit beside her!! Hnnnnnngh—!!! He gets to touch Shouyou’s hair whenever she dozes off, or place her head on his shoulder to sleep on! Or-or maybe even take a candid shot of her sleeping cutely—dammit!!! This is frustrating!!!!!”
“Ahhh~ I know how you feel, bro! I, too, want to sit next to our precious Hinata-chan on the bus! B-but… Noya, what about Kiyoko-san?”
“Ryuu bro, our loyalty is always on our beautiful goddess Kiyoko-san—BUT SHE’S DIFFERENT FROM SHOUYOU! Our kouhai is literally the epitome of a living sunshine~! She cures our blues away! Remember that time during our match with Wakunan, when you were kind of down about Daichi-san’s injury then Shouyou suddenly hugged and peppered you with words of encouragement?”
“Oh, yeah! It calmed my senses down… and also! Remember when you came back from your suspension, and me and Hinata noticed bruises—“
idk I really need to refresh my HQ knowledge by rereading the whole manga orz—
“—on your arms? Ma~n, she freaked out and began applying those with some ointment she had in her bag. And you told me later that time Hinata’s hands were very soft even though she spiked and blocked so many balls in her lifetime? Also that expression on your face! So priceless!”
“Ahhhh~ I wanna touch Shouyou’s soft hands again longer! Not just a high five—but holding hands!”
“Me too~ Damn, I wish there’d be some kind of (rotational?) seating arrangement whenever we’re on the bus, traveling to matches and stuff…”
“Ryuu! Noya! Heya!”
“Tora! Our shitty (city) boy from Tokyo—wassup!”
“We can’t wait to play another game against you guys later! ww”
“Same here!”
“Ah, what are you guys talking about?”
“OUR PRECIOUS KOUHAI HINATA/SHOUYOU!!!”
“Eh? Shrimpy-chan? What about her?”
“It’s like this….—“
The two crows and mohawked cat walked their way inside the camp premises, talking.
Unbeknownst to them, two eagles accidentally eavesdropped on the earlier conversation.

Oikawa x reader ch. 10
Hey! I hope you all are still enjoying the story. I know it’s long, I’m just having so much fun writing it. Don’t worry, it’s definitely more than halfway done. Let me know if you’re still liking it or if I should cut back on how long it is lmao
A week later, Oikawa and Iwaizumi invited me over to Iwa’s house, where they were having an alien movie marathon. All of Saturday afternoon, I worked on homework and my art (which was slowly improving as I practiced), and when 4 o’clock rolled around, I packed up a sleepover bag. I told my mom I was staying over at Kiyoko’s house, not wanting to have to explain why I was sleeping over with two boys. 
The drive to Iwa’s was less than three minutes, and I arrived right as Oikawa’s car parked at the curb. He waved as I stopped my car across the street, and I smiled as I opened the door and jogged over to him. 
“Hey chibi-chan, how are you?” He grinned. 
I smiled widely up at his, (fucking attractive ass face that makes me drool and melt everytime that he looked at me. His hazel brown eyes made my body feel like jello whenever he looked at me, and his soft brown hair made me want to run my fingers through it. His smile shone and made my heart stop, my breathing hitched and I made a guttural noise in my throat. My breathing was so hard and uneven that I probably needed a ventilator. Damn that man was too fine to be allowed to walk freely.) LMAO, prime content my friend wrote and I decided to keep it in 😂 
I smiled widely up at him, hefting my sleepover bag on my shoulder. “I’m great! How about you, Oikawa-chan?” 
“Oh uh-” His voice cracked a little and he blushed. “I’m doing good. Why are you in such a good mood?”
I shrugged, heading up the path towards Iwa’s door. “I don’t know. I just feel really happy to be able to hang out with you guys today.”  
Oikawa followed me up to the house, and Iwaizumi opened the door after only a few knocks. 
“Hey guys. My parents aren’t here tonight, so we have the place to ourselves.” 
Seijoh’s ace had been in the middle of heating up noodles, so we followed his example, setting our stuff down and meeting him in the kitchen. Iwaizumi had his speaker set up, and he was playing a rap song called “How you Feel?” by DJ Scheme, Lil Yachty, Danny Towers, and Ski Mask the Slump God. 
Iwaizumi sang Ski Mask’s part and Oikawa took Danny Towers, deepening his voice to match the pitch of the song. I covered my mouth so hard I started turning red, trying not to laugh at their terrible attempts. 
“What Y/n-chan?” Oikawa made a pouty expression, and I laughed in his face. 
“Singing is not the move for you, Oikawa-san. You should stick to volleyball.” 
“Hey!” 
After we all ate our noodles, Iwaizumi and Oikawa raided the closet and dumped a shit ton of pillows, cushions, and blankets in the living room in front of the TV. 
“Pillow fort!” I yelled, leaping on the pile with a whoop. Iwaizumi refused to participate, more happy laying on the couch while Oikawa and I created a massive and complicated fort built around the television. 
“We finished!” I pumped my fists, surveying the cushioned palace. I hadn’t made something like this since I was five, and I felt more satisfied and excited than was probably normal for an eighteen year old. 
Oikawa emerged from the kitchen with a loaf of milk bread he somehow found in Iwa’s pantry, and tossed it violently onto the couch. Before I could turn to look at him, he charged and tackled me onto the pillows, completely crushing our fort. 
I shrieked loudly, but as we fell, he wrapped me in a protective cage of his arms and the pillows cushioned our fall. 
“What the fuck Oikawa?” I cursed, gasping. 
He smirked down at me, his face only inches away. “Sorry, the opportunity was perfect.” 
I struggled, trying to get him off me, but my arms were pinned and his body crushed the air from my lungs. “Get off!”
“Hm, nope, I’m pretty comfortable,” he mumbled, arms wrapping tighter around me as he snuggled his head into my chest. 
I turned to look at Iwaizumi, who shrugged and went back to looking at his phone. I wasn’t going to get any help from him there. 
“Oikawaaaaa….” I groaned. “If you don’t get up, we won’t be able to watch!”
I hoped the threat of taking away the opportunity to watch “Arrival” would be enough incentive to get him off me. Oikawa had an obsession with aliens, more than anyone I had ever met. Obviously, it didn't even come close to his obsession with volleyball, but he still could list most of the UFO sightings on record and give a full rundown of them. He also had seen basically every alien movie in existence, and taken a few astronomy classes at the local junior college to learn more about space. 
Most of the guys on the team found it completely hilarious and/or annoying, calling him a fucking nerd whenever he brought it up. I thought it was adorable, and I loved hearing him talk about it. He just got so excited and genuine, more than I ever saw him. Usually, he put up a fake mask around other people, which slipped up even around his friends sometimes. But when it came to something he truly loved, there was no hiding how animated he got. 
As I had hoped, Oikawa groaned and rolled off me, allowing me to struggle to a seated position. 
“Iwa, did you rent the movie?”
Iwaizumi nodded, tossing his phone aside and grabbing the remote. Oikawa and I jumped onto the couch, and I ended up squeezed in between the two boys even though there was plenty of room to spread out. I was comfortable though, so I didn’t complain. 
The movie started, and I shifted my legs so they were laying across Oikawa’s lap, leaning my head on Iwa’s shoulder. Oikawa tore open the wrapping of the milk bread, passing me a large piece and stuffing a bite in his mouth. It was delicious, as usual, and I continued to munch on it as the movie started. 
The movie was amazing, way better than I expected. It wasn’t a basic pop culture alien movie like most of the genre I had seen, and was much more ominous and realistic. Halfway through, I glanced over at Oikawa to see him leaning forward, eyes bright as he stared at the screen. I felt my chest squeeze, happy to see him happy. 
There was a major twist at the end, making Oikawa, Iwaizumi, and I all lose our shit, and it took five minutes to calm our captain down. 
“That was so good!” Oikawa said, practically bouncing off the walls. I laughed and looked at the clock. It was 11pm, but it was also a Saturday, so there was no need to go to sleep any time soon. Oikawa clearly had way too much energy anyway, so I poked Iwaizumi. 
“What should we do now?”
Iwaizumi chuckled darkly, a creepy smile on his face. “One second, lemme just grab something.”
As we waited for Iwa to come back, I tore off pieces of milk bread and threw them into Oikawa’s mouth. My throwing skills were terrible, but he still ended up catching most of them due to his excellent reflexes. 
I threw another right as Iwaizumi emerged from his room and smacked the bread out of the air. Oikawa let out an outraged yell at the lost bread, but Iwaizumi ignored him. 
Coming over to sit beside me, he handed me what he had gone to get from his room. It was a magazine, Monthly Volleyball, dated from a month ago. 
“What is this?” I asked, and Iwaizumi flipped through the pages, snickering under his breath. 
Oikawa came over, looking down at the magazine before practically choking. “Iwa-chan, you--!” 
We stopped at a page, and I let out a surprised laugh as I noticed Oikawa’s picture taking up half the page. The setter tried to snatch the magazine from me, but Iwa jumped over me and tackled him. 
“Tooru Oikawa’s favorite food is milk bread,” I read, giggling and covering my mouth. 
“If you’re trying to embarrass me, Iwa, it’s not going to work,” Oikawa declared, crossing his arms, but his cheeks were tinted slightly red. 
I kept reading. “His personal motto is: if you’re going to hit it, hit it until it breaks? Wait, what does that even mean?” 
Iwaizumi snickered, and I was practically wheezing from laughter. 
I glanced up at Oikawa, only to find him smirking, eyes dark. “Wouldn’t you like to know.” 
“Oh, gross,” Iwaizumi snapped, and I felt my cheeks redden. I tried to laugh it off, but it came out a little breathless, and Oikawa looked triumphant. 
Later that night, we set up the beds in the living room. I was on the couch, while Iwaizumi and Oikawa slept on the floor in sleeping bags. 
It was almost 3am, and I was exhausted, so the second I curled up on the couch, I was asleep. As I drifted off, I felt a gentle hand running through my hair, and low voices murmuring to each other, but I fell asleep before I could figure out what they were saying.

Shorter Than I Thought - Yaku x Reader
Getting together headcanon stories from match-up requests
Summary:
When you tried to think of a way to start a conversation with Yaku, you shamelessly told him, "You're shorter than I thought." His teammates were shocked to find that he was blushing in response.
Tumblr media
Request from @muffins-puffins:
I'm 4'11 short and always wear my dark brown hair in messy bun. I like foreign languages and translating raw comics for fun. However, I'm bad on literature. Really clumsy and naive, always make people worried of my well-being but I believe that inside I'm actually an iron wall. Still, I had an insecurity for not reaching other's expectations. I'm quite good of being 'shameless' for initiating first conv but then sucked on continuing it. I had social battery too which i don't quite like it. I can't stand with coldness despite of my warm hands. When it comes to sth I like, I'll always be on fire, willing to do anything for it (including trying to learn how to play volleyball which I never knew I enjoy it). Also I'm selectively observant and focused, exclusively for something I really like. Distraction is my number one enemy and I'm really in need of motivation all the time. Thank you!
I didn't write for everything you wrote because of plot reasons. I hope that's okay.
Shorter Than I Thought - Yaku x Reader
The two of you were in the same year, but in different classes. You didn't know each other very well. One day after school, you had to do a chemistry lab by yourself because you were sick when the rest of the class did it.
Yaku came to see the teacher while you were doing the lab. He saw you struggling with it, so he decided to help you. The experiment wasn't meant to be done by one person, so the teacher allowed him to.
But of course, since you were clumsy and accident prone, you almost touched the bit of acid that was spilled on the table.
"Hey, you need to be more careful!" Yaku told you as he swiped your hand from touching it.
"Oh, thanks," you replied. You still didn't know how to carry a conversation with him. You attempted a couple of times, but each topic fell flat. But you had a random thought that he was pretty tall or at least he was a normal height to you. You were 4'11" after all.
One day you saw him at the gym during practice. You were interested in volleyball so you got distracted from what you were supposed to do and walked in.
Kai recognized you because you were in his class and walked up to you to chat. When Yaku came to say hi as well, you wanted to try to start a conversation with him again.
But you shamelessly said the first thing that came to mind. "Oh, you're shorter than I thought!" you told him.
You didn't think that observation was a big deal. He just looked shorter than usual because he was standing next to his taller than average teammates.
The team froze in shock by what you said, waiting to see what his reaction would be. They knew his usual reaction was to kick the person's butt, but that was with his teammates. But they didn't expect this reaction: he blushed!
Kuroo started to tease him about it. Why would he blush after a comment like that? He wondered if he liked you. Yaku said that he didn't and that he barely knew you.
Kuroo decided to have fun with it though. When he, Yaku and Kai were studying together, he called you over because you could help them with their English vocabulary.
When Kuroo found out that you just started playing volleyball, he volunteered Yaku to help you. He was going to say no because he knew that Kuroo was just teasing him. But when he saw how fired up you were, he couldn't refuse.
So he started to help you regularly with the volleyball basics. He thought it was cute how eagerly focused you were when he gave you instructions. After a few weeks, he even started to tease you.
One day, while he was tossing the ball to you as you practised your receives, he threw the ball off to the side. When you just stared back at him, he replied with a smirk, "What? You can get that one."
"I'm sure *you* could have gotten it."
Yaku suddenly started to be awkward around you and blushed a lot. When Kuroo saw this, he knew he had fallen for you. But he remembered your "short" comment to him a while back. "Oh yeah, why did you blush then if you just started to like her." Yaku said he would never tell him.
Before you two had officially met, a classmate had asked if you preferred tall or short guys. Another friend had laughed that it would be funny if you dated a tall guy because you're so short. You had told them you didn't really care about their height. "But if I had to choose, probably a shorter guy," you had told them with a giggle. "Then I could wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him whenever I want."
Yaku had blushed when he had heard that. He had started to imagine you trying that on him but had pushed that thought at the back of his mind. He was actually half a foot taller than you so he was actually too tall for you to do that.
So when you had told him that he was shorter than you thought, he interpreted it as, "It's easier to kiss you."
Yaku did end up telling you the story after he asked you out. So of course you took the opportunity to go on your toes to steal a kiss from him.
Extra
Somehow the team finds out about the story anyway. So Lev decided it was okay to comment on his height and call you two the chibi couple. Yaku still kicked him. When Lev asked why, Yaku said that he was still annoying.
I hope you liked it. I don't know how I'm going to think of more stories for the rest of the match-ups. There are 13 left. But I always think that whenever I start a new one. lol.
Here are my other stories.

Letters
Day 7 of Adrienette April is already done! I can’t believe this month is going by sooo fast :O! My babies are too sweet I think that’s why hehe. Lemme know if you liked this chapter <3
AO3
Marinette’s tongue poked out of the corner of her mouth, writing the latest entry in her diary. This notebook was different though. Instead of her usual entries in regards to how her day went, this one was dedicated to Adrien. Each page was a love letter devoted to all of the things she wished she could say to him, yet was unable too. It helped her to feel better and maybe, one day, if she gathered up the courage she would be able to send him one. Hugging the notebook to her chest, she sighed dreamily at the thought of Adrien finding one of her letters and confessing to her on the spot. The designer giggled slightly before closing her notebook, brushing a soft kiss onto the front cover. Placing it on her desk, Marinette hopped back onto her bed, cuddling up against a sleeping Tikki, who mumbled tiredly at her before her bug-eyes closed once again. 
When she awoke the next morning, it was in a mad dash. She was late for school. Once again. With a grumble and a shriek, she jumped off the bed, darting downstairs to her bathroom. There, she managed to brush both her teeth and hair at the same time, her eyes glancing at the clock which was continuously counting up. After she had finished, she ran back into her room to put on her usual school-outfit. Slinging her backpack over her shoulder, Marinette almost forgot her notebook. Grabbing the journal from her desk, she plopped it into her backpack before tearing off downstairs. She failed to recognize that it wasn’t her school notebook, but instead her Adrien notebook.
Giving a kiss to her parents, she grabbed a croissant for the road before she began racing off on her normal path to school. Marinette only realized her mistake when she landed on the steps, huffing and puffing in both exhaustion and relief as she noticed that she was actually early for once. A sharp tap on her shoulder, however, caused her to screech, whirling around to face a sheepish Adrien. That certainly didn’t help her as she squeaked in surprise, her backpack tumbling off of her shoulder and spilling its contents on the floor as the startled girl scrambled backwards.
“Sorry, Marinette, I didn’t mean to startle you,” his head bent down to help pick up things.
“I-It’s fine. I just didn’t realize it was you,” she also crouched down to reach for some scattered pencils before grabbing for her notebook. Her head connected against Adrien’s as they both reached for it at the same time, giving each other apologetic smiles in turn. 
Marinette pulled back, leaving him to pick up the slightly open journal and then listened to him apologize to her as he stood up, “Sorry again, Mari. I was just trying to help,” she watched as his gaze was drawn unwittingly down to the open notebook in his grasp before he gasped in excitement, “Is this a chibi version of me? Oh this is adorable! You’re such a talented drawer, Marinette. Did you also doodle our other classmates?”
She frowned in confusion for a moment, a chibi version of Adrien. She didn’t have that in her notebook, that was only in her... The designer let out an audible gasp, reaching for the journal before he could flip the page, “No, Adrien, wait!”
Her shout was too late, however, and he had already flipped the page and read at least the first few lines judging by the growing blush on his face before she could yank the book from his hand. Marinette’s eyes widened with horror as Adrien slowly blinked up at her, “Marinette... I,” he started softly.
Not wanting to face the brunt of his rejection, she clutched the notebook to her chest tightly, her eyes clenching shut shouting, “I sorry am!” before racing off to class. It was when she was safely in her seat that she allowed herself to panic. She was going to have to deal with Adrien in front of her for the remainder of the class period. She was completely screwed. Of all the notebooks she had to bring it just had to be that one... Sucking in a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself down, Marinette tugged harshly on her pigtails.
“Hey girl, what’s wrong? Why do you look so panicked?” Alya slid into the seat next to her, peering at her with concern.
“Alya help me!” she practically sobbed, falling into her best friend’s arms, “Adrien saw it!”
“Okay... can you be a bit more specific?” the reporter asked hesitantly, stroking her hair softly, “What exactly did Adrien see?”
Marinette pulled back to look into her friend’s hazel eyes, her lower lip wobbling lightly, “He saw my Adrien notebook!”
“No! The one you’ve written your love letters in?!” Alya’s eyes widened as her mouth fell open in shock. She merely nodded in answer to her friend’s question, diving back into her arms. The grasp around her tightened as Alya hugged her close, “Well what did he say?! Was it good or bad?”
“I-I didn’t exactly stick around to find out,” she sniffled lightly.
Alya frowned, leaning back to search Marinette’s blue eyes, “What do you mean you didn’t stick around to find out?”
“Well, I maybe, kind of, sort of, ran away from him,” her index fingers tapped together nervously as she peered up at Alya.
Her best friend sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose, “Marinette, how do you know how Adrien was going to respond if you just ran away from him.”
“He read my love letters, Alya!! There’s no way he was going to do anything but reject me. He probably thinks I’m creepy now! Oh, we’re never going to get married and have a house with 3 kids and a tiny hamster now,” Marinette wailed.
“I wouldn’t be too sure of that,” the reporter giggled, pointing at Adrien as he stumbled into his seat rather hazily, giving a half-wave to Nino.
Unfortunately for both Alya and Adrien, Marinette avoided both of their pointed glances, nibbling on her lip as she focused almost entirely on the lectures. When it was time for lunch, she stood up hastily, almost falling out of her seat in her rush to leave the room. She passed Adrien’s seat in a flash, her eyes clenched shut as she ran to the door. Just a few more steps and she would be there. Away from prying eyes. At least for a little while. 
Marinette was stopped, however, by a hand gently wrapping around her wrist, tugging her to a stop and, judging by the tingles that were racing up and down her arm it wasn’t Alya who had stopped her. She cursed briefly in her head before she heard Adrien’s small, soft voice respond, “Marinette, wait. Can we please talk?”
She turned around slowly, finding her best friend standing nearby and pleaded desperately with her eyes to help her form at least some kind of escape. Alya gave her a brief nod before turning to glare at the boy who was still holding her hostage, “Hey, sunshine! You’re going to go easy on my girl, right?”
“What? What do you mea-,” he had frowned at her words, glancing over his shoulder to look at her before cutting himself off harshly to whirl around and look at Marinette with wide eyes, “Is that why you ran away from me? You thought I would... Marinette, you have to know I would never, could never, hurt you like that.”
Her cheeks had turned the shade of a tomato as his emerald eyes peered down at her with concern. Though the designer attempted to squash it, a flickering spark of hope at his words was rising up. Clearing her throat quietly, she managed to speak up, though rather softly, “I-I guess I just thought that, well, nevermind. I-if you want to talk, w-we can.”
With a relieved sigh, Adrien tugged at her hand, pulling her out of the classroom and into an empty hallway, though not before she could see Alya give her a thumbs-up. Marinette gnawed on her lip as she watched him pace a few steps, a hand mussing up his usually tame, blonde hair. When it seemed like he had collected his thoughts, he took a deep breath, turning to peer down at her seriously, “Marinette, I need to tell you now that that was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me, and I only got to read a few sentences,” Adrien laughed briefly, running a hand through his hair again.
Against her will, her heart did a flip, the original spark of hope flickering into a full-on fire. Stuttering slightly she gave him a small smile, “Yeah?”
“Yes,” he squeezed her shoulders with a bright grin before frowning, “But I also need to apologize. I never should have invaded your privacy by looking at your notebook like that. Had I known that you didn’t want me to see it I never would have gone against your wishes like that.”
“No, it’s okay, Adrien! You didn’t know,” Marinette reached a hand out hesitantly before placing it on one of the hands that were clutching her shoulder, giving it a small squeeze.
“Regardless, I shouldn’t have done it,” Adrien shook his head, “I don’t even know why I did. I guess I just thought I’d get to see more of your artwork.”
She hummed, nodding her head in understanding, “I understand, really.”
Reluctantly, Adrien nodded his own head, “I have another question for you too, if you don’t mind. Was it you who wrote that anonymous love letter to me last year?”
Marinette’s cheeks flamed and she ducked her head down shyly before giving him a small nod, “Y-yeah, that was me. I didn’t think you’d remember that.”
“Marinette, I could never forget that,” he laughed quietly, squeezing her shoulders again before sucking in a deep breath, “If I tell you something do you promise not to laugh?”
She frowned instantly, shaking her head, “Adrien, I would never laugh at you!”
“Okay,” the model took in another lungful of air before blurting out, “I have a huge crush on Ladybug!”
Wait... Did she hear that right? Marinette’s eyes blinked a few times in confusion before she spoke, “What?”
“I know, I know, it’s silly of me to have a crush on a literal superhero, right? But I just couldn’t help it!”
No, there’s absolutely no way that she has been competing with herself this whole time. The whole idea was so laughably odd that the only way this joke would be funnier if Adrien were Chat Noir. But that was impossible. So instead, she responded to him with more confusion, “Wait, have you even met her?”
“Yeah, she’s saved me a few times,” Adrien ducked his head shyly, rubbing the back of his neck nervously. Not that I could ever forget, Marinette giggled to herself silently as her cheeks turned a bright shade of red. The boy in front of her shook his head quickly though, “But I didn’t want to talk about that too much! I have to admit that my crush on Ladybug left me a little blind when it came to other girls in my life. Left me a little blind to you, but I think that could change.”
Marinette was immediately dropped out of her daydreams of sneaking into Adrien’s room as Ladybug and snapped back into the present. Was he serious? She managed to speak barely above a whisper, “What?”
“Marinette, I think I could love you. Who knows maybe I already do. Even just reading the first few lines of your letter made me so happy. I can’t imagine what reading the rest of them would do!”
It was all she could do not to drag Adrien down for a kiss, instead choosing to clarify hesitantly, “D-does that mean you want to try dating or...?” she trailed off, letting him decide how the rest of the conversation. She had already, albeit unknowingly, laid all her cards out on the table so it was time for him to do the same.
“If you’ll still have me, even knowing that I’m unbelievably nosy,” he chuckled with a small grin.
“Adrien, i-if you don’t mind I would r-really like to kiss you right now,” Marinette stuttered boldly through, her hands clenching at her sides.
“O-oh, okay,” the model nodded, his cheeks a cherry red.
Marinette’s eyes widened briefly before she stood up on her tip-toes, wrapping her arms around his neck as she tugged him down for a slow, sweet kiss. Her hands threaded through Adrien’s hair, running her fingers through the blonde locks as he shivered pleasantly in her arms. One day, she thought to herself as she tilted her head, one day when Hawkmoth is long gone. I’ll let him know that he’s been in love with the same girl the whole time.

note: requested by @clevercamijo // the first version of this story is right here! hope you like this version, as well :)
Tumblr media
It’s okay. It’s okay, they’ll come get you. You won’t be here for long.
You looked around the jail cell hoping you came off as at least slightly cool and unbothered-- but the truth was, you were terrified, and you had a feeling these men could practically smell it on you. How could the officers here be cruel enough to put you in an overcrowded square cell surrounded by bigger and stronger men, men who were criminals? You were the only woman in there, and the guards were barely doing their rounds; fear was sinking in more and more by the second.
You had moved to stand in the least crowded corner you could find, too nervous to even sit down. If you seemed too relaxed, you could be taken advantage of. The resort was in a lawless part of Sudan, and God knew where all of these men could have come from. You were starting to feel frustrated that you were even there-- they had absolutely no proof connecting you to smuggling, otherwise the entire team would be there with you.
You noticed a tall, rather beefy man suddenly walking up to you, and you froze. You prayed he was on his way to approach someone else, but sure enough, he stopped right in front of you, harsh eyes staring down at you. You tried to gaze up at him with confidence, keeping a surprisingly cool exterior, but you knew it was hopeless. Someone like you could not faze someone like him. “What is a pretty woman like you doing here?” he inquired, his English thickly accented, the slight smirk on his lips already menacing. “I’d rather not talk about it.” You replied dismissively, trying to step away from him, but he only followed to block your path. “Then we do not have to talk.” His smirk grew wider, his dark eyes scanning your body up and down. You felt your stomach twist in simultaneous disgust and fear. “Leave me alone,” you spoke firmly, relieved your voice was not yet giving away your anxiety. “I’ll be out of here soon enough.”
“Maybe, but until then, you can make yourself useful and provide some entertainment.”
You bit your lip as you noticed more men were looking at the two of you now, mainly at you. “I-I’ll scream for the guards.” Fuck, you stuttered. “You think they will help? They will only want to watch,” another man said with a scoff, a wicked grin lighting up his rugged features. It was horrible, revolting, terrifying, but you knew he was right. This was a completely different world, and a very corrupt one, at that. “I’ll-- I’ll give you money when I get out of here. I’ll even use my connections to bail you out. I’d be able to do it, I’m working with the-”
“Lies,” he spat in your face, and you shut your eyes tight as you barely winced. “Just stop talking, it will make this much easier for you.”
You cried out when he grabs your waist, jerking you to his body. You tried to squirm desperately out of his hands but the other men were surrounding you, ready to catch you if you dared try to run-- and where would you run, anyways? You were in a jail cell, for God’s sake. “P-please!! Please stop, I’m begging you!” Any attempt to act confident and unfazed was thrown out the window-- you were a pathetic mess now, tears streaming down your cheeks as you felt the man’s hands start to slide under your shirt, trying to fight him off as best as you could.
“What the hell is going on here??!”
Your head snapped up at the loud, angry voice barking out from the other side of the cell door. There stood Ari, his eyes a shade darker, his fists clenched so hard the skin tone of his knuckles was practically albino. A security guard gestured for you to come to the door as he unlocked it, seeming completely unbothered by the fact that you were being sexually harassed-- however, you were too frantic to get out of there to even be appalled by such a disgusting example of the bystander effect.
But suddenly, Ari was storming right in, grabbing the collar of the man who had been bothering you. Jerking him forward, he lifted his fist and punched him right in the face; you had never seen him look so angry before, his veins practically bulging and his teeth clenched. “I don’t even fucking have anything to say to worthless swine like you,” he hissed, shoving him down to the ground roughly before grabbing your arm, pulling you out of the cell. You were practically speechless, your eyes wide and your heart pounding as you held onto him, realizing your cheeks were still fresh with tears. “Are you alright?” the team leader asked once you were safely outside the building, now turning to you as he gently took your face in his hands. “That fucker didn’t hurt you, did he? Was I too late??” You could see the panic in his eyes and you quickly shook your head, sniffing but touching his hand lightly. “No, no, I-I’m okay, just.. shaken up…”
He pulled you to him and hugged you tightly, and you immediately took comfort in his broad chest and fresh scent from his cologne as you wrapped your arms back around him, feeling more tears falling forth. “I’m so sorry I wasn’t here earlier,” he murmured lowly, pressing a kiss to the top of your head, his lips brushing against your hair as he continued, “I promise, I will never, ever let anything like that happen to you again.” You nodded your head somewhat pitifully into his chest, feeling bad that you were staining his shirt with tears, but unable to remove yourself from his hold. “It’s okay,” you forgave him in a soft whisper, not blaming him for anything. This operation came with risks, and you knew you were being sensitive about it, but you couldn't help yourself. Feeling a mixture of weak and violated, you just wanted to go back to the resort and crawl into bed, and Ari could tell. He pressed a soft kiss to your forehead, clearly not caring that you were in public despite your secret relationship, murmuring quietly, “Come on. Get in the truck, let’s head back.”
_________________
You slowly opened your eyes, blinking a few times. The events of the day immediately flooded your mind, making you wince slightly as you remembered them, but upon realizing the strong, muscular arms wrapped around you, you instantly felt comforted. Looking up, you smiled tiredly seeing your boyfriend’s sleeping face, his eyelashes rested peacefully against the top of his cheeks. You tilted your head up slowly to kiss his beard, smiling softly at the scratchy texture that tickled your lips. A low hum of content escaped his throat, his hold tightening around you. “Hey there, beautiful.” His voice was low and husky from having just woken up, making you sigh happily. “Did you sleep well?”
“Mmhm,” you hummed in confirmation, wrapping your arms and legs tighter around him. “But I don’t want to get up yet.” He chuckled and exhaled deeply, rubbing your back up and down. “Good, we’re on the same page. I just want to lay here in bed with you for the rest of the day.” With one swift movement, he suddenly had you straddling him as he lay comfortably on his back, a lazy grin on his lips as he looked up at you. “God, you’re gorgeous.” You could feel your heart racing, but this time, unlike before, it was in a good way. You smiled as you leaned down, your hair falling to one side of your neck as you kissed him sweetly. “I love you, Ari.” You whispered against his lips, and he suddenly growled as he rolled the two of you over, now on top of you as he leaned down to kiss you back. “And I love you, sweetheart.” He pulled back to look down into your eyes, his features becoming slightly more tense. “I’m still so sorry about today, baby. I should have been there earlier. God, not only that, but I should have snapped that fuck’s neck. I was so fucking angry I didn’t even know what to do besides inflict pain as soon as possible.”
You shook your head, reaching up to stroke his cheek gently. “It’s okay, Ari, really. Don’t beat yourself up about it.” You chuckled softly, adding, “Or other people. Although… it was really attractive when you did that.” You admitted with a little smile, teeth barely pulling at your lower lip. He blinked before barely smirking amused, turning his head to kiss your hand. “Well you can expect to see it again if anyone ever decides to fuck with you like that. Fuck, I’m still so--”
You cut him off with a kiss, pulling his face close to yours. “Let’s both just forget about it,” you whisper, desperately wanting to leave this incident in the past. “We’re going to be okay… I know it.” He hummed softly, inwardly taking a deep breath and pressed his forehead against yours. “You’re so good to me, baby girl. Thank you,” he mumbled softly, kissing your nose softly. “I can’t wait until we can finally be public about our relationship so I can tell everyone how much I fuckin’ love you.” You giggled as you gazed up into his eyes, rolling your own fondly. “Mm, well for now you can just focus on telling me,” you teased, and he grinned widely, moving his hands down to tickle your waist as he attacked your face in kisses. “I love you, I love you, I love you, I fuckin’ love you, I love fucking you--”
“Ari!” You exclaimed with a loud laugh, squirming and playfully smacking his chest. He grabbed your wrists with a happy grin, leaning down and kissing you passionately. The trauma from earlier was slipping away from your mind as you melted into his kiss, allowing yourself to be completely embraced and comforted by your loving boyfriend, entirely grateful for everything he did for you.

...Chuuya was no stranger to lashing out when he simply couldn’t hold every black feeling he had inside of himself anymore. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, leaning over the table to push Dazai upright and backwards into a seated position. He stared at the tired, empty looking man before him.
“I won’t play games with you tonight, Dazai, I get enough of that from fucking Mori.”
Dazai’s eyes flashed darkly. “Don’t compare me to him.”
Read more below or on Ao3.
Chuuya returned home late that night after a draining, fruitless stakeout job, much nearer to dawn than dusk. He opened and shut the door with exaggerated slowness, so as not to disturb the silence of the apartment. As he crept over the threshold to hang his coat and hat on the rack, however, his eyes tracked an angle of light coming from the kitchen.
So, Dazai was still awake. He touched the long tan coat, now hanging beside his and felt that the lining was still warm. Dazai had come home recently then. Somewhat atypical for him, as the ADA didn’t usually keep the same ungodly hours for its staff which the mafia thrived upon.
He called out a tired, “I’m home,” and went about unpacking a bit less discreetly, walking into the kitchen to find Dazai’s lanky form seated and hunched over, head pressed face down into the table, with one finger swirling idly through a half-empty glass of whisky.
Shit.
Chuuya didn’t make executive for the mafia without a keen sense of impending fucking doom, and so he went directly to the wine cabinet and drew up a bottle of merlot, uncorking it between his teeth with practiced ease and only a little desperation. Dazai made no motion to acknowledge his presence.
Shit. This was really not, entirely, what Chuuya needed right now. He approached the counter across from Dazai with a veil of indifference that he hoped conveyed just the slightest hint of concern. Dazai’s mind spun wildly at times, and Chuuya would rather not be caught in any chaos with what was left of his very, very long day.
“Bad day, Dazai?”
Dazai shrugged. “Always.”
Ah, so very bad then. Chuuya placed the Merlot on the counter to let it breathe. “So what happened?”
“Nothing you can solve, little lab rat.” Dazai shifted his head to face him, left cheek still pressed against the table, and his eyes gleamed with a wickedness Chuuya hadn’t seen in a long while.
“Tch-” He drew a sharp breath to steady himself, and then Dazai smiled cruelly, like he had just won something. And that...
That stung. It hurt so much that Dazai would still do this, still press on his past traumas after all this time like it meant fucking nothing,that Chuuya almost took the bait and tore his ugly fucking bandaged throat out. But...
As he breathed, and looked… and breathed, he found that he could see the edges of pain around the wickedness. He could mark the tightness in Dazai’s gaze.
Chuuya was no stranger to lashing out when he simply couldn’t hold every black feeling he had inside of himself anymore. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, leaning over the counter to push Dazai upright and backwards into a seated position. He stared at the tired, empty looking man before him.
“I won’t play games with you tonight, Dazai, I get enough of that from fucking Mori.”
Dazai’s eyes flashed darkly. “Don’t compare me to him.”
“Then don’t act like him, Osamu.” Chuuya sighed. Silence stretched out between them like a wide river until something almost imperceptible shifted in Dazai, which for Chuuya looked a hell of a lot like defeat.
Dazai’s eyes bled from cruel to vacant. Empty.
“Touché, partner.” He raised his glass in a small salute before draining it.
“I’m not your partner, shitty Dazai.” Chuuya cursed. Present crisis avoided, the mafia turned his back on Dazai and walked over to the cabinets, pulling and setting out a glass and pouring himself of the wine he had opened earlier.
Dazai pushed his empty whisky tumbler towards Chuuya’s hands feebly, and his eyes spoke dangerous secrets like please, and I’m sorry.
Chuuya pinched the bridge of his nose, sighed, and poured him a quarter glass of whiskey. He really should’ve thanked Kouyou more extravagantly for that emotion management development coursework she forced him to sit through. If he was going to attempt something that even smelled like a relationship with Dazai…
…Maybe he could send her an edible arrangement. Or something.
“So, what happened?”
“Simply, mon petit mafia, the Agency’s mission failed. We were trying to bust a trafficking ring, and I had collected intel that they would…” Dazai sighed, sipping at the liquor Chuuya had given him. “I acquired bad intel… they were supposed to move the girls out tonight, from the stationary warehouse on Hualien street, however, upon arrival, we were greeted by a team of guerrilla fighters instead.”
Dazai sighed. “They had moved the girls to a third location last night and so, because of me, our opportune moment passed us by~” Dazai whined, staring into his glass, voice growing quiet… 
“Odasaku wouldn’t have…”
Nope. Not this shit again. Chuuya could tolerate a lot of Dazai’s strange ruminations, but he drew the line at listening to all the things the mackerel imagined Oda ‘perfect human’ Sakunosuke would do, say, or think about whatever was going on in the present. All those paths only lead Dazai closer to another suicide attempt.
“Shut up, mackerel.” Chuuya deadpanned.
“What~??” Dazai whined. “But Chibi asked me to tell him about my day~”
“Yea, that was back when I thought you had something fucking relevant to say. A shit job is a shit job, don’t sit here and act like you don’t already have 347 contingencies to find whoever you missed today in place, eh?”
Dazai blinked, looking away.
“Eh?!” Chuuya stared at his lover full on, trying to convey both inhuman annoyance and unwavering faith in the lanky asshole’s ability.
Something shifted in the taller man’s face too quickly for Chuuya to catch. Dazai drained his glass and lowered it to the counter.
“Will Chibi take a shower with me, then?”
“Fuck- Dazai, it’s like 3am…”
“But quite frankly, Chuuya smells weird is what I’m saying.” And just like that Dazai was back to his typical façade of bullshit.
He’d have to send Kouyou a gift card for a massage with the arrangement. Maybe one for himself as well.
“Come here, idiot.” Chuuya said as he hauled Dazai’s lanky ass off the bar stool.
                                                       - / - / -
Chuuya let the water heat up while he stripped Dazai of his bandages and his idiotic pretenses, scars all laid bare. If the pasty mackerel thought he was getting away with what he said earlier he had another thing fucking coming.
“It’s cold~” Dazai whined, nose burying into the shorter man’s neck. “My second bad idea of this evening~!” Chuuya sighed and rubbed his hands over Dazai’s arms, tracing over the raised flesh of scars and goosebumps.
Chuuya could touch Dazai for hours, every inch was a story.
“Chuuyaaaaaaaa~~~~!”
“Oh my god, quit whining. Go stand in the water then and give me a hot fucking second to take my pants off.” Dazai pouted childishly but did as told, harrumphing himself behind the curtain.
Chuuya took a second to breathe, untying his hair and picking up all Dazai’s shit. Bandages could go in the trash, if the wayward genius wanted to recycle he could clean up after himself.
                                                                                                                                      - / - / -
Washing the grit, sweat, and guilt off Dazai in the shower was easy. Kissing Dazai in the shower was easy. Bringing him out of his head was another matter entirely.
That only happened when Dazai sighed, shifted and hooked his legs around Chuuya’s waist, letting the stronger man press him into the wall, and then press into him as the water fell around them like so much rain.
                                                        - / - / -
Chuuya busied himself with rolling out their shared futon and bedcovers while Dazai hung awkwardly by the wardrobe. A quick glance found that his eyes had already begun to darken again.
That wouldn’t do.
“Do you want me to do some deep pressure with Tainted to help you relax?”
Chuuya had discovered a while back after reading something on the internet, that the experience of slight pressure can calm a wandering mind. It had become a bit of a thing between them since.
“If Chibi wouldn’t mind that, ah… might be helpful.” Dazai hid his face away as he spoke, redressing himself in a sweater and lounge pants.
“Lie down then, moron.”
Dazai launched himself under the bedcovers, sliding right into the center of the space. Chuuya pulled himself into a pair of boxers and one of Dazai’s sweaters, which dangled awkwardly on him in a way Chuuya fully knew Dazai internally drooled over.
“Idiot, are you fully covered?” Chuuya crawled onto the futon, hovering over Dazai, tucked beneath the covers.
“Yes.”
“You’re wearing socks, too?”
“Yes, Chibi.”
“Okay, hands out on top, don’t touch the blanket.”
“Obviously, hat rack.” Chuuya activated tainted and pressed unnatural gravity into the bedcovers, perhaps a bit harshly.
“Ah~! Too much!!! Chuuya is mean~!!” Dazai whined. The child.
“Don’t call me names then.”
“Chuuya started it.” He eased the pressure to about 45 killograms and spread it through the blanket. Dazai sighed, his eyes unfocusing. Dazai didn’t like pain, but they had discovered that gentle pressure was a comfort.
Chuuya settled himself down beside Dazai, curling around near his body, but staying above the covers and keeping his skin and hair apart from Dazai’s. He listened to the taller man’s breathing even and shallow out.
Chuuya was once again surprised at how versatile his gift was, and using it to help Dazai in this way was soothing for him as well, another small reminder that not everything had to be destructive, Mori be damned.
Dazai sighed. “Kiss me, Chibi.”
“You’ll screw up your therapy.” Chuuya griped.
Dazai turned and brushed his fingers through Chuuya’s hair and his ability fell away from him.
Their lips met, and Chuuya shifted to straddle Dazai once again, placing his hands on his lover’s chest and using his strength and the weight of his body to press him into the tatami. He would not let Dazai’s mind spiral for a second. Not tonight. Chuuya tracked the man beneath him carefully, relaxing his grip when he saw the barest hint of a wince in the corner of Dazai’s eyes, and strengthening it whenever he heard a whine of loss.
Showers. Sex. Kisses. Pressure.
Such simple comforts really shouldn’t bring someone with Dazai’s laundry list of mental health concerns this much relief and yet, he thought; a man dying of thirst would be glad for even a drop of water.
Maybe it was the same.
So he settled himself over Dazai, and let the man play with his hair, basking in the simple sensation and the warmth left over from their shower. After a while Dazai’s hands slowed, and then stilled. Just when he thought the mackerel had finally fallen asleep, he heard a low whisper.
“Thank you.”
Chuuya smiled stupidly into the covers.

Roommate in distress
So this was somewhat requested by Meri in discord, and it’s based on this song here. It’s a soukoku Roommates Au that somehow ended up as a 2k+ words fic even though I promised a drabble. I’m sorry I never know when to stop xD. Hope you like this rushed thing! :D
“I hate him.” Chuuya complains. “I can’t even stand to see him anymore. I despise his face, his voice, and even his clothing. Have you noticed his fashion sense? Such a disgrace.”
There’s a sigh that comes out of Chuuya’s laptop screen, where a tired Tachihara is leaning his head against his knuckles, more than used to his friend rambling.
“Chuuya-san, please, don’t spend all our conversation speaking about your roommate.” Tachihara tries to get into the topic once more, but fails miserably since Chuuya groans in frustration at said roommate’s mere mention.
“Speaking about him.” He says yet again, and this time is Tachihara who whimpers internally. “Do you know what he did to me this morning? He wasted all the stupid hot water by taking an hour and a half long shower! What the fuck is he supposed to do in there that long?”
Chuuya stares at his friend through the video call window, and even though he is only pinching his nose in outrage, Tachihara knows he’s not meant to intervene.
“And,” Chuuya continues, then Tachihara assumes that his tiny crush on the redhead is going to be the death of him, “you are not going to believe what he said to me when I confronted him.”
“I’m sure I won’t, Chuuya-san.” He murmurs, not actually sure his words are being payed attention to.
“The bastard had the guts to say “Next time let’s shower together, Chuu”.” The redhead mimics his voice. “What the fuck does that even mean?” Chuuya looks at Tachihara as if expecting the answer to all his problems, yet he knows better than to interrupt his friend’s rant. “Now I can’t even look at him in the face without wanting to punch him!”
Tachihara moves his head against the other hand, quietly staring at Chuuya squeezing the too long sleeves of a sweater big enough not to be his.
“I get this weird ass feeling in my stomach every time I come across his face, and it happens almost constantly since we live together.” Chuuya confesses, lower this time as if he is trying to obtain a reason out of it. “It must be loathing. I must detest him so much I’m having feelings of hatred inside me.”
Tachihara has never been that close to tearing his own hair out as in that moment. Chuuya is staring at him as if there is no other logical explanation, thus Tachihara decides he might as well grab a snack for the amount of time Chuuya is going to need to realize his real inner feelings. That, and also for his slightly broken heart that is pleading for self-destructing comments and chocolate.
“Yeah, that has to be it. I’ve hated him since I first landed my eyes on Dazai, so it’s only natural that the feeling grows stronger.” Chuuya concludes, seemingly satisfacted with the discovery.
“So, if you hate him that much, Chuuya-san,” Tachihara says, unwrapping a chocolate bar, “why don’t you move out?”
His question hangs midair, as both sides of the call remain silent. Chuuya is staring at him as if he had just said the most unreasonable, stupid, global harming thing of all, and Tachihara shrinks somewhat down on his chair.
“Are you out of your mind, now?”
Chuuya’s passive-aggressive inquire has Tachihara under the need to explain himself further. “I mean, you only speak about how much he pesters you, isn’t that true, Chuuya-san? Then it can only be natural to change roommates. You’ve been living together for two years now, so leave him.”
Chuuya lets out a chortle, making Tachihara feel as if he is no bigger than a kid that still doesn’t understand how the world functions. Leaning closer to his laptop screen, Chuuya maintains the smile on his face.
“That’s just plain stupid, Tachihara. Unfortunately, it looks like I’ll have to live with him forever.”
“Chuuya-san, you’re just college students. In two years top you’re done sharing a roof.” Tachihara intends to offer some tranquilizating words to his friend, even when Chuuya is apparently in another astral plane judging by his calm expression.
“Yeah, but we’ve talked about renting a flat together after graduating.” Chuuya says, and Tachihara definitely doesn’t understand a word.
“Didn’t you just say you hated him?”
Chuuya looks back at him unimpressed.
“Yeah, what’s your point?”
Tachihara sighs and doesn’t bother ending the call before slamming his laptop shut for good.
“Dazai, get your ass out of my couch and get your part of the assignment done!” Kunikida screams from his flat’s kitchen. “Now!”
“Ugh.” Is the only thing Dazai says as he keeps lazing around under the apologetic stare of Kunikida’s flatmate, Atsushi.
However, his nap attempt is soon cut short when Kunikida comes back to whack him to the floor.
“Such an unmannered man. Right, Atsushi?” Dazai complains without moving, and the aforementioned only shrinks in his armchair.
“Shut up and get to work.” Kunikida commands, turning his computer on without sparing a glance to the still lying body on his flat floor.
“But I’m not motivated anymore, Kunikida-kun.” Dazai whimpers, and doesn’t bother to raise.  “Unmotivated. Un–” He starts accentuating each syllable– “mo–”
“Dazai…”
“–ti, va–”
“Alright!” Kunkida explodes, “Why are you unmotivated, Dazai, care to tell?”
Dazai jolts up from the rug. “So straightforward, Kunikida-kun!” There is a grin on his face hat almost costs him another blow, though he dodges it. “However, it’s all because of Chuuya.”
“Your roommate?” Kunikida frowns, already typing the report he deeply knows Dazai is not going to do. “What does he have to do with your idiocy?”
“Everything,” he says, “his face, his voice, his fashion sense. Everything is a disaster. On top of all, his inexistent stature. It physically pains me.” Dazai finishes his list, all while leaning down again on the couch with a whimper that leaves a pout in his lips.
There is a moment of silence in the room which only pesters Kunikida further.
“If you aren’t going to work then leave.” He ends up saying after listening to his classmate’s nonsense.
“But Kunikida! I can’t leave! I’d have to see Chuuya’s face at home and it gives me the goosebumps!” Dazai turns around so he is able to kick in the air like a child, only to spite his friend. “Living with him is such a torment!”
“Is he really that bad?” The question escapes Atsushi’s lips before Kunikida can warn him with a pointed look, and Dazai practically jumps on the sofa in excitement.
“Oh, believe me Sushi! He is worse! He steals my clothes, makes the best curry ever, and has an astonishingly intoxicating scent impossible to resist!”
Dazai claps his hands together and then forces an expression of disgust. Atsushi leans his head to the side in confusion, though he doesn’t try to understand the man. That is a battle he surrendered from long ago.
“But those are only good traits?” Atsushi speaks again as if Kunikida isn’t silently begging him to leave the topic.
“And the worst of all is that he always interrupts my suicide attempts!” Dazai cries, “This morning I was trying to drown myself in the bathroom, but he just had to come and tell me to rush!”
Atsushi feigns a sound of understatement after Dazai stares at him for a moment. “O-oh.”
“I obviously told him he can always join me. He turned the cutest shade of red!” Dazai trails off along with vague hand gestures, “I wouldn’t mind taking a shower with Chuuya at all…”  
“But doesn’t that mean you like him, Dazai-san?” Atsushi hesitantly asks, and Kunikida groans loudly at last.
Dazai’s strident laughter interrupts him.
“Me? Like Chuuya?” He says in between giggles, “I loathe him. He,” Dazai needs to take a breath for a second, “He makes me want to pry my eyes out in disgust. I’ve got all these feelings of revulsion inside of me every time I see him, you know? My blood rushes and my head reels at the mere sound of his name, it’s terrible.”
“But that’s precisely what it means to be in–” Kunikida steps in before Atsushi can finish his sentence and send his afternoon to hell.
“Dazai,” he says, “if you get on with your part of the project I’ll let you crash on the sofa tonight. That way you won’t have to see your roommate’s face.” Kunikida really tries to give a reassuring expression. “Only start it. Deal?”
There is silence. Then, Dazai gasps and immediately looks at him as if he has just said something impossible. His unrelenting look makes Kunikida feel as if he had grown a second head, or worse, decapitated an animal. And even though he knows his classmate doesn’t make sense at all most of the time, Dazai looks like he has been greatly offended, thus Kunikida wonders what wrongs must he have done in his previous life to deserve such a punishment.
“Do you mean not going home to Chuuya?” Dazais’ voice is hardly perceptible.
“Didn’t you just said…?” Kunikida asks, not even remembering why the hell is he even participating in the conversation in the first place.
Dazai deadpans. “That’s just plain stupid Kunikida-kun. Do you plan on passing this project with that atrophied mind of yours?”
A vein twitches in his classmate’s forehead. “Dazai…”
“Ah, now I really am unmotivated. Nothing can ruin the mood more than hearing nonsense.” Dazai says before standing up, stretching his arms above his head. “I’ll be taking my leave, then.”
“What?” Kunikida grunts, bewildered. “Come back here! You still have to do your part!”
“Oh, and just so you know,” Dazai turns around in front of the door to look at them, “there is no way I’m not going back to Chuuya at the end of the day. Don’t ever suggest that again.”
Dazai closes the door after him.
“I’m back, chibi!” Dazai shouts from the door, quickly scanning the place to find Chuuya sprawled down on their modest couch typing in his laptop.
His chest feels lighter at that image, and Dazai rushes out of his shoes, barely leaving the coat hanging before throwing himself on top of the redhead.
“Unfortunately, mackerel!” Chuuya groans, shifting so nor Dazai, his laptop or him end up on the floor. “Welcome back.” He adds with a sigh anyway, because deep inside him it wouldn’t feel right if he didn’t.
“Say, Chuuya,” Dazai raises his head from Chuuya’s stomach, “is this my sweater? Again?”
Chuuya doesn’t bother lifting his head from the screen.
“I won’t deny or confirm anything.”
Dazai chuckles while dragging himself up so his head is resting against Chuuya’s shoulder. The redhead allows him to accommodate over his body without a word, and once he is done Chuuya buries his fingers in Dazai’s brown locks, caressing his scalp with slow motions.
Dazai humms in appreciation, indulging in the feeling with his eyes closed. “What were you doing?”
“Just finished telling Tachihara how much I loathe you.”
Dazai bats an eye open to stare at him in something akin to amusement. Chuuya ignores it in favor of discarding his laptop over the tea table, and then swifts down over the couch, only halting once his head is at the same level than Dazai’s.
“That Tachi-something guy really is a nuisance.” Dazai comments, both his eyelids closed again.
Chuuya makes himself comfortable against his roommate’s body. He notices how Dazai’s bangs have already fallen down to cover up his eyes, and how his lashes fit beautifully against his clear cheeks. There is also the almost imperceptible mole against the side of his nose. However, Chuuya doesn’t dare look lower than that –he knows better than to get himself into the lion’s den.
Against all odds, what he does is murmur in contentment. “Hmm, please don’t do something stupid.”
Dazai barely lifts his lids to stare at him. “Since you asked so nicely.” He says, and then his arm is encircling Chuuya’s waist to drag him closer. “I despise you, too.” Dazai whispers against Chuuya’s just licked lips. “So much.”
Chuuya smirks, yet doesn’t take the step further. He grabs a fistfull of Dazai’s hair, not with the intention of pulling apart but for giving the assurance of how close they are instead. Dazai parts his mouth in half a silent moan.
“Don’t do that, you make my skin crawl.” Chuuya groans, slowly lifting his look from Dazai’s lips to his eyes.
“I can’t stand seeing your face either.” Dazai stares deep into Chuuya’s eyes, his hand already finding a place in Chuuya’s warm nape.
All it takes is Chuuya biting down his lower lip and a quick look from Dazai to his mouth for them both to give in, as usual.
