#established tkkg

[kingstrawberry]

married tkkg where both of them have sensory issues so they both use those ring holder necklaces at All Times.

they don’t keep their marriage a secret but it isn’t public cuz they don’t talk abt it and they don’t like pda, and obvs no one sees the rings (outside of the locker room).

anyways kageyama idiotically announcing their marriage to the world when an interviewer asks him about his dating life.

kags: oh i don’t date

interviewer, nodding understandingly: ur focus on your career is admirable

kags: oh no i dated a while ago. i’m married now, not dating.

interviewer: :0 married?? you don’t wear a ring

k: yes i do *pulls thin chain from under shirt to reveal a silver wedding band*

interviewer, flabbergasted: how long have you been-?

k: three-

the rest of his answer gets cut off when tsuki, who was on the sidelines, finally reaches the stage and pulls kageyama away.

tsuki smiles at the camera, says “this interview is over” and leaves with kags.

kags, who had been wanting to go public: whyd you do that?? :(

tsuki, who knew that and was trying to coordinate with their PR teams to do a joint interview to talk abt it: my personal life isn’t the worlds business

[hazyletter]

a promise (yours, yours, yours). until the end (of forevermore),

"Here."

Tobio looks up and sees Kei holding out his white beanie, the one with cat eyes and whiskers and cute little ears. The setter blinks for a moment and stares. Confused, he tilts his head to the side.

Kei just snorts at his expression, hinting to Tobio that it may or may not be a breath taken out to humiliate him, but he is surprised to feel hands on his ear, and Tobio shivers in reflex at the warmth on his skin.

"You're freezing cold." Kei pulls his fingertips to the shell of his ear, massaging them between his thumb and index, before gliding them further up to play with Tobio's locks. "Wear it." He pertains to the beanie.

They stare at each other for a long while, Tobio just because he wanted to, and Kei with a silent but patient question. It wasn't long until Tobio raised his palm and Kei laid the beanie on its surface. Momentarily moving himself away from Kei's hand, Tobio secures the beanie on his head, ducking his head, then tries to make his bangs look presentable right after.

He hears a laugh from above. It's Kei, cracking his lips into an amused smile. "Cute."

Tobio immediately feels the surface of the skin on his face grow warm. He frowns, the kind that's a signature of his. "Shut up."

Kei raised a brow with a snicker, before stepping closer to his figure that is still seated on the swing set. He fiddles with Tobio's bangs, leaving the latter to close his eyes and relax in front of him, and when Kei lets go, Tobio steadies his gaze.

He does not jump when Kei leans his body even further and steals a kiss from his lips, closing his eyes as if it's nothing but a habit by now. The surface of Kei's glasses always makes it a bit awkward, but Tobio doesn't mind it, hasn't minded it with how close they keep attaching themselves to one another. Tobio hears Kei taking a short breath between his lips and it is enough.

And so Tobio does not resist interlocking his hand with Kei's, squeezing it for additional ease as they don't pull away, leaving it hanging around the air.

Kei doesn't fully stand up when he lets go, but instead snuggles his cheek towards Tobio's, then moves to his neck, leaving a small peck on the skin that has Tobio sighing.

"Are you not uncomfortable?" Tobio points out his posture.

Kei just hums. "Never when I'm with you."

The simplicity leaves Tobio's heart thumping. He leans his head to Kei's shoulder, and holds out his arms to hug Kei. Kei moves into a kneeling position, the back of his ankle supporting his upper body, and places his hands on Tobio's neck and waist.

"We have to leave." Tobio mutters to his jacket. 

"Stay here for a moment." Kei whispers to his ear.

There are leaves that carelessly fall around them, and when Tobio's gaze catches into one, he follows its dark yellow form and is reminded of Kei's eyes. He had the urge to see them all of a sudden, and so Tobio pushes his body away from Kei and ignores his disagreeing sigh. He steadies himself with a hold on the middle blocker's shoulder to stop the swing from moving him too much.

Tobio stares into those dark, golden circles and lines framed by white and black, lets his hand caress its holder's cheek, and stays there.

"Mhm. Okay. Just a few minutes more."

Kei's gaze softens, whatever he saw in Tobio's face is the reason for it. Or perhaps the unusual softness of his voice. His gentle, affectionate touch. The way the wind still pulled on his covered locks for a simple dance. How the beanie looked on his ever-stoic expression that is now painted with autumn's cold but relaxing messages.

"Just a few minutes."

2. A Few Criminologist Diversions Versus A Major Case

An energizing criminologist party flourishes with age-proper unique diversions, fervor and experience. The youngsters ought to fathom astounds, find mysteries and edify cases - and you need to get ready first. In this way, it is fitting to think ahead of time precisely what amusements and activities the criminologists expect and everything in the store or online eg amazon * to arrange what you need it.

Quick rant now that I’ve finished reading Toteninsel:

never before have I realized the irony (bordering on cynicism?) of #100 being published not even a month after 9/11 happened. Terrorists are actually called out quite a few times in part 3, along with the whole ‘going to war’ discourse, and while I believe Marx is deliberately exaggerating when he says he doesn’t care much for day-to-day politics, I do believe him when he says that he tries to not even hint at any contemporary political shenanigans in DDF (which, ofc, further establishes DDF as the anti-thesis to TKKG, seeing how TKKG is highly political with almost every single story, while DDF is as apolitical as it gets). So this wasn’t done on purpose or written as a meta-take, foreshadowing the years to come, but it can very well be read as such, and it’s quite eerie, looking at it now, bc it catapulted the series out of the 90s innocence into the age of terrorism, if just briefly and mainly for this episode. But wow, that kinda struck me.

The whole story is like the biggest Bob/Jelena fanfiction Marx has ever written, hands down. There are countless, unashamedly mushy, heartwarming scenes, and there’s a lot of heavy flirting going on, and I am lovin’ it.

It comes as a surprise to no one that I am still madly in love with Dr. Maria Svenson (or rather: the idea and concept of her, bc while the novel thankfully fleshes her character out a bit more, there’s still so much wasted potential), and I am still mad we never got a Sphinx reunion.

Hot Take: The Hadden Siblings are really great and entertaining, highkey dramatic and unhinged villains and they deserved to be main focus in an episode dedicated to them. Or even better, a trilogy. Like I still don‘t get why Kari felt the need to create a new Gary Stu with Mr. Grey when we’d literally JUST gotten rid of the old one (yes, I am talking about Hugenay, I do like him and esp Marx’ iteration of him, but he is a Gary Stu and there’s a good reason he closed the door on him for good), when like the Hadden siblings were RIGHT FUCKIN’ THERE. You could’ve gone in the craziest directions with them, just whyyyy waste them

What really got to me tho: the amount of issues both Peter and Bob got when it comes to the everlasting question of ‘how loyal do I have to be to our lil’ detective team/how much sense of self-preservation am I allowed to display/how much of these dangerous things do I keep doing to not disappoint or anger Justus’. It’s amazing, when they first send Peter to snoop around on board of the Explorer, he approaches this task with Just’s imaginary voice in his head. Lateron, when he’s stuck on that ship and has to try not to blow his cover, he spends the majority of the time figuring out how to keep their mission going (!!!) and BERATING himself for not being as clever as Justus, for not being as good as he when it comes to improvising and talking to people in a way to get more info out of them, and on top of that all, his main recurring thought is ‘I’m aware that I am not clever enough to pull any of this off long enough.’ It is HEARTBREAKING and frustrating, even more so bc a) Justus is the very reason that Peter wound up in this dangerous situation, and b) even for all his flaws, this is NOT what he’d want. At all. It’s a pity Peter will never know bc Justus sucks at communicating this. Bob isn’t off any better tho, when he gets knocked down by Hadden’s private hypnotist, and he presents him with the options of ‘either you’ll let me put you in a trance, or you can go home’, Bob admits he is super-afraid of being hypnotized yet again (yep, still traumatized from Stimmen aus dem Nichts, which Marx even acknowledges, Hi, Dr. Franklin), but he doesn’t allow himself to stew on that for long, bc his main thoughts are dedicated to ‘how do I keep this mission going, which option would Just prefer me to choose, what would Justus do’ like wow WOW.

established 2nd year tsukikage that is sudden; that no one expected. one day, in the middle of a match timeout, off to the side, people just suddenly see kei twirling tobio's hair with his fingers, subtly smirking as he mutters shameless flirtations to a frowning but reddening tobio

they're watched with gobsmacked faces and gushy whispers of their teammates and people at the bleachers. and they all just watch tobio turn away, blushing, while a chuckling kei just puts an arm around his shoulder before smoothly ruffling his hair with small pats

JUST. tkkg at the comfortable phase of their relationship where when they're teased by ennoshita to tone down the flirting when the match resumes, kei fakes a cough while tobio looks away, but they don't deny anything, clapping each other's hand in a quiet movement before the whistle

[hazyletter]

established tkkg is so so special to me because writing about them fully being in love without no doubts in their mind that yes, they want to stay here, hand in hand, eternally, is all i need in this life. and i think they'll agree as well
