props to my roommate for unintentionally saying the most romantic thing about Daisuga

rewatching "senpai's true abilities" in s1 and she was really digging the way suga interacts with the third years and there's a moment where Suga starts to get overwhelmed and Daichi interrupts telling him to calm down and she says [about long term school friends]

"i like that he just knew he was about to spiral. like you've been around someone so long your hearts have synchronized."

and if that doesn't just-

𖦹⋆｡˚⋆rules⋆𖦹˚⋆ฺ

im pretty flexible, but here are some basics!

(^_^)v:

⋆ no suggestive requests for

underaged characters

this is pretty self-explanatory, just don’t be a creep. my only (kinda) exception to this rule, is if the media has a canon time skip!

⋆ don’t rush me

i have a life too, if you could believe it. this is a hobby. if i’m not doing an unpaid commission for you, please don’t send me rude messages/asks asking when i’m gonna be done with your rq! Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑)

⋆ be polite

this piggybacks off of my last rule, please just be nice!｡ﾟ(ﾟ´o`ﾟ)ﾟ｡ i’m a young student who also has a job and rehearsal, so i may go on hiatus sometimes! also, i’m not claiming to be the best writer! i do understand constructive criticism, but i am a person with feelings!

⋆ no insensitive things

this is also self-explanatory. i will write for dark themes, but i will never write them to be romanized. i’m very open, so i’ll decide case-to-case if i’m comfortable with something.

⋆ i have the right to choose what i

will and will not write

this is related to my last one again! i don’t owe you an explanation if i decide to not write something!

thank you for respecting my boundaries!

Yo 💀

I have so many screenshots, art, and pictures of Akaashi on my phone that my phone literally recognizes him as a person now what the heck

😭I’m so embarrassed is this Apple telling me to stop saving pictures of him

but it’s so funny though….dumb also…but mainly funny

[afterthelambs]

The phantom thieves if they were a volleyball team

Setter- Joker because he's the leader and makes the decisions in canon. He'd also be the captain of the team

Opposite Hitter- Akechi definitely. He's canonically athletic and tall and left-handed which are ideal traits (since lefties are harder to block). I think Akechi would be obsessed with being the ace since his kit is basically all DPS in the game lmao. Also if we're using haikyuu logic, your power levels increase with how gay you are so... (also it's funny that his code name is 'Crow' and Karasuno are the crows)

Outside Hitters- This is tricky but I'm gonna go with Makoto and Haru. Makoto could've been the setter but she's canonically strong so I think she'd be more helpful as a spiker. Re: Haru im not sure if 'buff Haru' is actually canon or just really popular fanon. I remember a scene in the game where she's struggling to push a wheelbarrow in the real world, so I assume her strength in the metaverse was intended to be gap moe by the writers. It's between her and Ryuji but I went with Haru because i think Ryuji might struggle jumping with his injury

Middle Blockers- Yusuke and Sumire. Yusuke is the tallest phantom thief and MBs are usually tall. Sumire is actually very short but since she's a gymnast she's probably good at jumping so that could make up for her short height

Libero- probably Ryuji because he's fast. I mentioned that he could've been an outside hitter but since he has that injury he might not be able to jump frequently. Plus his tenacity is good attitude for a libero

Coach/Manager - Futaba, Ann and Morgana are the last ones. I think Futaba would do great as a coach since she's an analyst. Ann and Morgana have good support skills so I think they'd be good managers. They can also be substitutes. Ann as a pinch server is my favorite idea bc I headcanon that she helps Shiho practice since Shiho is canonically a VB player ❤️ (go to hell Kamoshida)

[sinkat-arts]

Slightly reworked Yamaguchi. His face was bothering me something fierce. This ain't quite it, but it's closer and the stars are pretty, so... one day, I'll clean him up properly and make the accompanying Tsukki.

But would Tsukki have a mountain or a strawberry framing him? What's the fandom accepted symbol for Yams?

Elegant Angel

A/n: hey guys!! So I decided to write something completely different. So this is my own thing short story, and I hope you guys like it!!

Synopsis: She falls in love with him without knowing she did, until she touches his hand.

Word Count: 816

Genre: fluff + strangers ⇒ lovers

She danced for a living. She always felt the music flow up in her veins like a river uphill. Her frilly tutu swayed as she gracefully twirled and leaped.

He went to every show, but not for the reasons as the rich people did. His face covered in debri, hands with calluses with all the work he did on the stage. Bubbles erupted around as he scrubbed the spotlight clean for the next show.

In the back of the silky scarlet fabric, he would gaze at the angel, flying freely with elegance through the stage. The beam of warmth made a halo around her, skin glittering with a luminous glimmer.

Fascination plastered in his poor face. How could he fall for an angel like her?

She glanced backstage, her soft brown eyes meeting up to dark one. Her heart danced along with her in its cage. Her delicate feet landed softly like a pillow.

He stared more, with a hint of adoration in his glowing eyes. He couldn't resist how beautiful she was.

Thump, thump, thump.

Her heart thudded around her ribs. Sweat running down like honey, dripping away to patter on the stage ground she loved to dance on.

Thump, thump, thump.

He glance once more into her milk chocolate eyes, melting away his thundering drum.

She took her bow to the audience, appreciating her performance once more.

Walking behind the silk curtains, her shoulder accidentally brushed against his. The delicateness of the bump tickled goosebumps up their necks.

The darkness once felt, left the moment they grazed each other's shoulders.

As they bumped into each other, some of the cleaning supplies he carried along for after the show, splatted on the ground.

"I am so sorry." Her sugary voice ringed in his ear drum.

He stared into the angel's glittering eyes, waiting to be taken into heaven safely.

"Umm, hello?" Her cheeks turned rosy, following his.

Immediately the enchantment she had cast him broke, earning a clumsy grin in return to the girl.

"Oh, umm, yes. Sorry about that. It is my fault. I was busy mesmerized by your beauty- I mean by the beauty of your dancing."

He just stuttered along. A giggle escaped from her glimmering soft lips.

Bending over to the cold wooden floor, they picked up his things. His callous hands grazed against the softness of her palm.

"I am sorry, mademoiselle. I shouldn't have touch your hand like that." His voice shaky at the thought of the delicate touch.

"You are fine."

Her lips curved up to a soft smile. A hue creeped up onto her cheeks.

"Beautiful."

After the encounter, her heart boomed like thunder. Her feet wobbled like learning how to walk for the first time, making her look as if she didn't dance so gracefully just a few minutes ago.

"I guess I am in love with a simple man, even if my parents wish for me to marry a man I never met."

The following day, she woke up in her soft bed, welcomed by the sunlight shining in her room. Some dust floated around like a light snowfall.

She stretched in the comfort of her bed, yawning softly as she rubbed her chocolate eyes.

Getting up, she walked in the closet to change into her attire to get ready for a new opportunity given to her from the universe.

She headed to the stage to practice once more, glancing towards the brunet boy over and over again. A few strands of her chocolate locks kept coming back onto her face as she delicately kept on tucking them behind her ears.

"Hey there, mademoiselle. 'Tis I, again. The one that bumped into you last night." He grinned at her.

"Yes, I remember." Her cheeks grew warm.

"So, came to perform to your audience once more?" His smile turned flirtatious.

"Why, yes. I did so, if you are my audience?" She looked at the wooden floor of the stage.

"Well, m'lady I shall look at your spectacle, but first I must complete my job." He pointed at the huge theater, showing how much of a mess it was from last night.

"Ah, yes. I feel bad for you."

"No, no, 'tis fine." He bowed.

"Oh, tell me more." She told him with a giggle.

"Well, I am just an ordinary guy with an ordinary life like I said. I worked here for several years now. I can't afford much, but I want to be able to afford your love."

He quickly cover his mouth with his calloused hands, earning a snort from her.

"I actually feel the same. I have realized how much you mean to me, even if I didn't talk to you until now." Her glittering eyes met his.

"And I want to be your everything, angel." He whispered in her ear, sending a shiver.

"And I will make your dream come true."

A/n: thank you sm for reading this!! I didn't wanna include any names with this story bc I want all of you to pretend to be them with your s/o or crush. Change pronouns if you like, just like you can on my other works. Master List

girl why do the nice people who compliment my work have to be pro/shippers like

[rabbitindisguise]

I'd also add that at a certain skill level it's fairly easy to craft a solid argument for any hammer or screwdriver- the key for me was figuring out if I should or not. Fandom (and my degree) taught me how to bring a feminist analysis to everything, but sometimes things aren't here for feminist analysis (romance novels, LGBTQ history books, women's art and design contest transcripts, etc) because it would be crass and metatextual and not very useful. Sure I could say the romance novel was doing a sexism by having the women being rescued, or the LGBTQ book had gender roles because of the butch lesbian main character, or that the design contest showed an absence of sterilized disabled women talking about pregnancy during a career. Would any of this say anything to people who didn't already know about feminist issues? Not really. Would it say something new? Not in particular. And it would largely be offensive to both women and the people being criticized because the premise (girl gets a fantasy, lesbian gets a fantasy, providing a space for people to discuss problems) conflicts with the basis of the criticism. In short: they weren't trying to do the thing I'd be criticizing them for not doing, so they didn't fail or mess up in any way.

That's important because in some areas of analysis it becomes an ethics question. Leveraging feminist criticism against a feminist organization already accomplishing their stated goals is a time waster certainly, but even more so reading a novel about the horrors of war and colonialism as a comedy is super dehumanizing. The gritty "alice in wonderland is about being on drugs" interpretations are messed up in the same vein because it removes the possibility of children's stories to be authentically presented as they are interpreted by children. "What if Naruto is about the horrors of war" detract from actual stories about the horrors of war- the lord of the rings for example- as failing to accomplish what Naruto is about (outcast gets accepted into society! Very moving in a culture that has rampant bullying problems around difference). Talking about Shakespeare romance through the lens of feminist cynicism (it wasn't love at first sight, Romeo was just objectifying and taking advantage of Juliet, etc) strips the possibility of the value of engaging with what women might have enjoyed from the plays and how it reflect cultural values about women and removes the voice of women in the original audience to have a voice. Jane Austen doesn't have to say something about #feminism to have an important and moving novel in Pride and Prejudice (about her fantasies about romance) and trying to find a sick feminist own in her response to Darcy's proposal ignores the raw emotional elements, and saying it does says that women's fantasies aren't valuable literature and need to justify it with feminist thought.

I think it's worth noting also that the lens I see most misused in fandom is not romance, but instead feminist critique (see above)- and I've noticed a habit of racing to find newer and more cutting edge critiques that have increasingly minimal evidence to support them. (And sometimes Marxism.)

One thing about fandom culture is that it sort of trains you to interact with and analyze media in a very specific way. Not a BAD way, just a SPECIFIC way.

And the kind of media that attracts fandoms lends itself well (normally) to those kinds of analysis. Mainly, you're supposed to LIKE and AGREE with the main characters. Themes are built around agreeing with the protagonists and condemning the antagonists, and taking the protagonists at their word.

Which is fine if you're looking at, like, 99% of popular anime and YA fiction and Marvel movies.

But it can completely fall apart with certain kinds of media. If someone who has only ever analyzed media this way is all of a sudden handed Lolita or 1984 or Gatsby, which deal in shitty unreliable narrators; or even books like Beloved or Catcher in the Rye (VERY different books) that have narrators dealing with and reacting to challenging situations- well... that's how you get some hilariously bad literary analysis.

I dont know what my point here is, really, except...like...I find it very funny when people are like "ugh. I hate Gatsby and Catcher because all the characters are shitty" which like....isnt....the point. Lololol you arent supposed to kin Gatsby.

CUTE THINGS WITH HIM

summary: just some cute things they do in a relationship

pairings: atsumu :: osamu :: suna :: kita :: oikawa :: iwaizumi :: matsukawa:: semi :: akaashi :: kenma :: kuroo :: daichi :: suga :: sakusa :: komori :: futakuchi :: keishin x gn! reader (these characters just started adding themselves, i swear)

warnings: only my undying love for these characters

haikyuu masterlist || tokyo revengers version

Letting you stick your cold feet under his legs (with only minimal complaints) x Miya Atsumu

Atsumu is a whiny complainer at heart, so whenever you creep your frigid feet underneath his thighs while watching a movie, he’s doing exactly that: whine and complain. But he never pushes you away or moves his legs. Instead he drapes the blanket higher over you and tugs it in, his warm palms running up and down your calves caringly. He’s also bought you numerous pairs of fuzzy socks and cosy blankets, worrying aloud about your health and blood flow, especially in winter. Then again, it is a good excuse to pull you in closer and bundle you up in his comfy clothes, so who is he to complain, really?

Offering you his food x Miya Osamu

Osamu takes his food very seriously, still, he offers you the first bite without fail. You’re also his most important critic, always getting to taste test his creations, whether it’s for his shop or just for the two of you. He might roll his eyes playfully when you eye his food after saying you’re not hungry but he’ll still share. After all, seeing the content expression on your face as you chew your (or his) food is one of his favourite things.

Sending you stupid memes x Suna Rintarō

The fact that Suna has a near infinite amount of unflattering candids and other blackmail material of his friends on his phone is something you’re well aware of. So it shouldn’t be surprising either that he is digging up the most cursed reaction pics or posts to send them to you with nothing but ‘u’ following it. But, among all the weird stuff, he sends you cute animals cuddling and tags them with ‘us’. Every time you respond with ‘that could be us but you’re at practice’, his teammates come up to ask what he’s smiling about.

Buying flowers without occasion x Kita Shinsuke

Kita doesn’t believe in letting societally accepted commercial holidays dictate when he buys you flowers or chocolates or takes you out on a date. No, he prefers showing his love for you equally all year round. Oftentimes, that means you coming home to a bouquet of flowers or being told to keep your calendar clear for the weekend. To him, grand shows of affection once a year pale in comparison to a steady stream of adoration. After all, your relationship is built on the small acts of love you share each day.

Taking weird photos with his phone x Oikawa Tōru

There’s no room to argue that Oikawa and you trust each other blindly. Considering the circumstances of his career and the vigour of his adoring fans, you kinda have to. But Oikawa has always been very open and honest with you, even going so far as to outright tell you his phone’s passcode. And you use that knowledge wisely. No, not to go through his texts or social media. Instead you open his camera when he’s not around, taking a myriad of selfies or pictures of random objects near you for him to find later. After a night out with his highschool friends, Tōru might wake up to a pretty set of new wallpapers too.

“Helping” him work out x Iwaizumi Hajime

You’re not sure if you’re really all that helpful as you shuffle around your living room, handing Iwa water or a towel as he powers through his at home workout. Maybe ogling his biceps or the way his tank top clings to the defined pecs and abs underneath is what you contribute to this training session. Well, you’re good at that, anyway. But your time to shine comes as Iwa asks you to hold onto his legs as he does sit-ups, giving you an even better view. All your hard work is rewarded with the kiss he presses to your lips each time he leans up. 

“Is this guy bothering you” x Matsukawa Issei

Whenever you stub your toe on the edge of a drawer or bump your hip into the edge of a table, hissing at the shock and/or pain, Matsukawa is right beside you in seconds. Then, after assessing you’re not actually hurt, he turns towards the offending object with a glare. With his voice lowered by an octave or two, he’ll ask “Is this guy bothering you” before pretending to get ready for a fight with the big bad. It’s corny but you’d lie if you said it didn’t make you laugh.

Shared headphones and playlists x Semi Eita

Music is Semi’s passion, naturally he wants to share that part of his life with you. Not only does he play his own songs for you, he also shares his headphones with you, adding all the songs you like to your shared playlist. You’ve also started making recommendation playlists or playlists with songs that remind you of the other and swap them regularly. Driving with Semi is also the most fun, especially on late summer nights with the windows down, going nowhere in particular.

Understanding each other without words x Kozume Kenma

To outsiders, conversations between Kenma and you might seem a little court or even incomprehensible. He just happens to be the type that lets his actions speak rather than his words, unless he gets really fired up about something. Still, your communication seems to work perfectly - or maybe both of you just share a brain cell. Questions like “Have you seen my…” can just be left hanging like this as you’re already pointing out that his old Nekoma sweatpants are in the wash. But no conversations are clearer than the ones you can hold through eye contact alone. Sometimes rolling your eyes conveys more than a thousand words… or however that saying goes.

Letting you win x Kuroo Tetsurō

Despite his suit and tie career, Kuroo is still a playful guy at heart and he’s carrying that energy into your relationship. He also grew up around Kenma, so making a game out of ordinary stuff is normal to him. That said, even if he challenges you in a board or video game, he’ll let you win on purpose every now and then. Not enough to give himself away, but often enough to see your beaming grin. However, if it’s a physical contest like an arm wrestling match, he will let you win (or rather he won’t let you lose immediately) just to tease you over it. Aw c’mon, he knows you’re stronger than this, sweetheart.

Good morning/ good night texts x Sawamura Daichi

Daichi is a busy guy, often out of the house before you wake up or back in after you go to sleep. Depending on which shift he has to work and how your schedules line up, you might not see much of each other for some time. But that won’t stop him from being the sweetest partner, instead sending you good morning and good night texts as well as updates on his day/night, if he has the time. It’s something that came with the territory of not living together before, but the practice never really retired. Equally, it puts him in a good mood to see you update him on your day as well.

Bragging about you x Sugawara Kōshi

Suga is your number one fan, no doubt about it. Not only is he vocal about that to you but also everybody else, whether you’re there or not. Daichi and Asahi are kind of used to it already, but there is always some new unfortunate soul who gets to experience just how smitten he is with you. He never makes it uncomfortable but weaves his praise for you naturally into a conversation. And if it flusters you, that’s just all the better. Although, lately, the classes he’s teaching have picked up on it and are trying to stall for time by asking questions about you.

Writing notes x Sakusa Kiyoomi

This probably started out as something entirely practical. After moving in together, Sakusa just started labelling stuff, writing grocery shopping lists and sticking them to the fridge, especially on days where he left early for practice. By the time you pointed out he could just text you at any given time, he’d already gotten used to this little habit of his. But his messages had slowly turned from chore-related to reminding you to take care of yourself or informing you he prepped lunch for you to just telling you he loves you. The first time he wrote that last one, he blinked down at the note for a few moments before sticking it to the mug cabinet.

Midnight snack run x Komori Motoya

Obviously, Komori wishes his job wouldn’t pull him away from you as often as it does. Though that being said, it also makes coming home after an away game all that sweeter and he feels like the constant change of pace makes him cherish the moments you do get to spend together more than he already does. And he appreciates that you can indulge him, both in his lifestyle and whenever he gets a sudden burst of energy. So yeah, now you’re bundled up in one of his hoodies as you go on a late night snack run, your hand in his as you walk along the calm streets.

Remembering little things about you x Futakuchi Kenji

Futakuchi comes pre-installed with an attitude, no matter who you are to him, it’s his factory setting. And while he’s a lot softer on you as his partner, he’ll still give you a sarcastic quip or poke some fun at you when you complain about something to him. But he always listens carefully and commits it to memory. You offhandedly mentioned you’re running out of something? He adds it to his shopping list. You rant to him about a coworker who’s giving you trouble? Oh, he remembers everything you told him about that guy before (and he’s ready to drag him to hell and back if it makes you feel better). Whenever your birthday or an anniversary rolls around, he never has trouble picking out a gift for you; Kenji could list so many things you’re into or that you could have use for in your everyday life, it’s not even a challenge.

Getting into your hobbies x Ukai Keishin

Keishin has got to be one of the most supportive partners ever. Whatever you set your mind to or whichever hobby you dive into, he’s there to root for you. But he doesn’t stop there; he reads up on your interests, so he can actively participate in the conversation when you talk about them. Similarly, he also adapts to your lifestyle and tries to show up for you in all walks of life. You, on the other hand, also get involved in his life too; his parents were keen to meet you, considering they hounded Keishin to get married in his 20s already. He’d also be over the moon if you showed interest in his work as a coach and met the Karasuno Volleyball Club.
