#kags don't smile

[wttcsms]

proof of love;

physical traces that reveal just how much you truly mean to him

ft. tobio kageyama, kiyoomi sakusa, atsumu miya

KAGEYAMA, your skincare routine in his bathroom — tobio lives in a stereotypical bachelor pad; you walk into his apartment and it's the very definition of bare-bones. thin, cotton navy sheets line his bed, with one single flat pillow. he doesn't own a dining table, and instead just stands near his kitchen counter to consume his meals. he blushes and tells you that he's just a minimalist. despite it all, though, after fun nights out, you find yourself heading back to his place with him, sleepy and drunk and pouty. you wake up, instantly regretting not washing off your face, moping because "i'm so gonna break out now, tobio!" when kags visits your place, he opens his notes app to get the names of all the skincare products lining your sink. the next night out, you're being carried into his apartment, mumbling drunk incoherencies. instead of setting you down on his bed (which now has two fluffy pillows and a fruit-print comforter that he bought for you), he guides you two to his bathroom where he places you on the counter and starts trying to figure out which steps to do first to help you remove your makeup. drunk-you guides him every step of the way, and the warmth you feel in your chest and cheeks isn't from the drinks — it's from the gentle care of your boyfriend rubbing in an oil cleanser to strip off your makeup.

SAKUSA, your lipstick stains on his water bottle — kiyoomi likes everything in his life to be neat and tidy. he carries a tide pen in his pocket that he ends up using on your clothes more often than his own. he's particular with how his belongings are treated, and you know better than to mess with anything of kiyoomi's. you respect his boundaries and find his oddities endearing, but you feel so much more secure in your relationship when you realize just how loose his boundaries are when it comes to you. on a road trip, you're thirsty and he offers you his water bottle. you don't think too much about it until you finish drinking and instantly widen your eyes at the sight of pink encasing the rim — remnants of your lipgloss. before you can say anything or try to wipe it off, he reaches over and takes a swig from it without a second thought. you try telling him not to drink yet, but he just glances over at you before focusing back on the road. "why would i be bothered by that? i kiss you all the time, don't i?" it's his subtle way of telling you that what's his is yours; you don't need to walk on eggshells with him.

MIYA, a cheap ring that came in a plastic egg — the proposal doesn't go as atsumu plans. things rarely ever go as atsumu plans, but this time — this is the one time he needs everything to go perfectly. and it does: the photographer is well hidden and on time, the decorations came out fantastic, and the ring! the ring is stunning. it's what's on everyone's pinterest boards. the only issue is that he put the ring box in the wrong pants pocket! with sweaty palms and a pink flush creeping from his neck to his cheeks to his ears, he gets down on one knee. he manages to stammer out his proposal speech to you, and you're listening with tears brimming in your eyes and a watery smile on your face, and then, those beautiful eyes of yours widen in surprise when you see, not a velvet ring box, but a plastic orb being revealed to you. he quickly explains that this is not your real ring (no duh), but that in typical atsumu fashion, he messed up. "it's just a placeholder!!! i'll buy you five diamond rings, just don't say no!" you're not marrying atsumu because of the ring, you remind him, but you allow him to slip on the cheesy ring. it's made out of plastic and it's one of those cheap prizes that are available in those weird machines outside the grocery store; the machines where you insert a quarter and twist the knob and a mysterious plastic ball surprises you with a prize. he tells you it took him a dozen tries to get a ring. you're laughing and saying it's meant to be since the ring manages to fit you perfectly. even after getting your real engagement ring, you still keep the cheesy ring to this day. it's evidence that no matter what happens, atsumu will always go the extra mile for you.

Long distance with Tobio Kageyama 🧡🖤

Post time-skip Kageyama x fem!reader

genre: very fluffy, sfw

wc: 0.6k

a/n: another long distance one, yes this was supposed to be one post with the oikawa one but the blurbs got too long and they wanted to be separated anyways lol, as always tysm for reading and my requests are open <3

(gif not mine)

You would never be one to hold back your boyfriend from chasing his passion, and the offer from Ali Roma was just too good for him to pass up, you knew that. But it didn't make long distance any easier.

The hardest part was probably the time difference. As it turns out, 7 hours of a difference really interfered with your time together. Which is why it was such a surprise to hear your phone ringing at 7 pm your time, when you knew it was only noon in Italy and Tobio would most likely be practicing.

You picked up his facetime to see him dressed comfortably in his apartment, not in his usual workout attire. And it looked like he had just showered, with obviously wet hair in his face.

"Tobio!" You greeted him excitedly.

"Who else did you expect?"

"Well, it's awfully early to be hearing from you."

"Yeah, coach is sick. We got the day off to train on our own so I started early."

You realized he must have woken up extremely early to have completed his workout, gotten home, and showered in time to call you at noon. Did he do this all for you?

Before you could ask you heard a ring at your doorbell.

Tobio mumbled, "Oh, good, It's there."

"What?" You asked as you moved your way to the door to find a bag of your favorite take-out sitting right outside.

"I had them leave it outside because you're antisocial or whatever..." He teased.

You picked up the bag and closed the door, "Tobio, did you order this for me? Thank you..."

"Yeah, I got some for me too, well, not from the same place but like, the Italian equivalent." He set down the phone and you could see him eating.

"Aw, this is amazing Kags.." You unpackaged the food to find at least two or three meals worth. You laughed, "oh my god, Tobio, this is way too much food."

He seemed surprised by this, "Oh, you're right. Guess I was hungry when I ordered." You remembered his extreme appetite and smiled, it was as if he was with you after all.

"Don't worry, I'll just save some for tomorrow. If only you were here to eat it all."

"Soon, don't worry."

Soon? He hadn't told you of any plans he made to visit. "Do you mean that?"

His eyes widened a little, like he told you a secret he wasn't supposed to let out. He looked at the camera and his eyes softened, "Well I was supposed to save this for a different surprise, but, did you seriously think I'd miss our anniversary?"

Your face lit up upon hearing of his plans to travel back for your anniversary in three weeks, "No way, really?"

"Mmhm," he mumbled with a mouth full of food, "I'm yours for the whole weekend."

"Perfect," you smiled, "I better start planning things now... my friends are worried for when you visit though, they think i might just let you take me back to Italy with you."

He chuckled at that, but you spoke again before you could finish chewing, "You know, I think they might be right."

His straightened up, locking his attention on you in shock, "Are you serious?"

Haikyuu you say? Can you do kageyama, goshiki, and Tsuki headcanons? Their love languages, relationship headcanons sfw and nsfw, or anything you want!!

A/N: Bless youuuu! Thank you for sending one in for me and oh this ones really good! I love options. YES KAGS! Some characters I haven't done yet yeeees. I can do this for sure <3

TAGS: relationship headcanons, love languages, dating them headcanons, fluff, smut under the cut, each one has a little bit of smut after the fluff, praise, words of affirmation, physical touch, quality time

CHARACTERS: Kageyama Tobio, Tsukishima Kei, Goshiki Tsutomu

KAGEYAMA TOBIO:

Kind of awkward almost shy in the beginning like he's afraid of doing something wrong to ruin your relationship. He's aware that the things he says can be taken the wrong way and doesn't want that to happen with you.

If you ask him about it he will just 'I'm sorry, I don't want to mess this up.'

'Mess what up?'

'Us.' He's so serious too, blush over his cheeks and everything.

You have to set him straight and assure him it's fine to mess up. You're not going to break up with him over a misunderstanding. Plus you know what he's like by now.

Give him a reassuring hug and maybe a big smooch and he's all better. Also, he's a sucker for head pats, especially if your fingers really work and get tangled in there. He pushes into your touch like he craves it.

Tobio wants to be good for you so he feels reassured by this even more. He's your good boy.

Speaking of wanting to be good, words of affirmation are very big for him in terms of love languages. Praising him and acknowledging him is assure way into his heart.

Tell him things like 'Wow that set was so impressive!' and 'I never get tired of watching you play.' It really brightens his day. It also gets him going~ if you know what I mean.

Tell him you love him, little compliments about his outfits, that you appreciate him. These all go a long way. 'Damn baby you're looking extra good today!'

He stops and blushes all bashful before a smile crosses his lips. 'Thanks.' He says, pressing a kiss to your temple. 'You look good too.' His hands slide up and down your sides. 'But you always look good.'

'Well aren't you sweet.'

Even that gives him a little extra pep him his step. Being told he is sweet. Because he'll be anything for you! Sweet, loving, affectionate. As long as he can be yours.

Likes spending time just the two of you at home for dates. But isn't afraid to also take you out and spoil you. Kind of gets a sense of pride holding your hand in public.

Also big on other kinds of physical touch but more in private. Relies on you to recharge his battery after a long day. Just falls against you and cuddles.

Craves your warmth and affection. Wants you to stroke his hair. Likes it when you whisper those sweet affirmations to him at the same time.

Likes lying on top of you and pressing his face against your chest. Kind of has thing for you chest. Also a thing for squeezing your chest. The size doesn't matter nor does it matter if you've got breasts or pecs, he's just fixated there.

There are times he likes to just bury himself there, mouth attached to your nipple, sucking and licking to his hearts content. Will nip just to play around.

Works the other nipple with his fingers. Sometimes is there for ages ignoring how hard he is in his sweats.

It doesn't matter that he's been leaking pre-cum for ages. He contents himself by thrusting against you every now and again to relieve it.

It's not until your hands thread into his hair, tug at the roots and pull him up that he remembers to continue to the next step. He's a little dazed and starry eyed so bear with him.

Then your hands are on his cock and he's whining, begging for you to make him cum after he's edged himself for so long without even realising it.

TSUKISHIMA KEI

Tsukishima held his cards close to his chest until the moment the confession came and then all of a sudden he's dating you and he's not really sure how to switch to being vulnerable.

His cards don't all come down onto the table right away.

You've sort of got to pry them from him or just wait until he naturally gives them to you (either way he needs little pushes because he's rather stubborn).

He's not overly affectionate and sappy. But will catch you of guard sometimes with soft smiles or stares in your direction.

'What?' You'll ask.

'I'm just looking. Got a problem with that?'

'Not if you give me a kiss.'

'Tch.' Gives you one anyway. And not just some cheap chaste kiss. Puts the whole Tsukki back into it. A big old passionate kiss.

'Happy now?'

'Not quite.'

Rolls his eyes but he's smirking because yeah he's coming in for another kiss. and another and another. The kiss deepens and ohh here comes that tongue at a steady pace. Nice and easy. But oh does it take your breath away.

He can be sweet and a little shit all at once.

Will walk over and bonk you on the head for attention. The second you whip around to scold him he will steal a kiss. Sometimes its on the forehead, other times its the cheek but there's other times its smack bang on the lips.

Pulls away smirking like. 'Hey.'

Punch him honestly, he will just give you another one. Or laugh. Which ever one you don't mind about.

Loves to tease you but really enjoys partners who keep him in check about being a shit or tease him back. Humble him he finds it hot. Will be all 'Tch.' but inside he's like 'Damn, you really can handle me.' Wants to kiss you real bad but won't if it's in public. Just gets all smirky lol.

His love language probably falls more on the quality time side of things. Just being able to hang out and exist together is most important to him.

It doesn't always have to be big dates. He's good with easy hangouts at home with homecooked meals, watching movies together, listening to music and just chilling. Prefers it honestly.

He does, not that he'll admit it out loud, like going out occassionally just to show off that you're together. Kind of has this complex about it. Feels a rush of superiority having been the one to bag you. Drapes an arm around your shoulder or waist proudly, head held high. Ha, you're his.

The complex kind of falls in reverse though in terms of making him feel a little self conscious. Feels like he doesn't deserve you sometimes. Doesn't seek reassurance but tries not to be such an asshole from time to time.

Goes through 'I've gotta be good for you.' Phases. Where he thinks he really needs to be better. You can pick up on it and assure him he's fine, just a little prickly sometimes. 'Aren't we all?'

Huffs when you pepper kisses all over his face to make him feel better. Appreciates it though.

Does appreciate and crave a bit of that physical touch too. Isn't always good at initiating it. Sometimes sits there craving it while staring holes into the back of your head.

That's your cue to climb on into his lap and just hold him and kiss him all over. Nip and suck at his neck to hear those sweet gasps and moans.

His hands will find your waist and hold you tight. That allows you to naturally push down against him. Before you know it the two of you are grinding together.

Exchanging kisses, touches and and dry humping all the way to that sweet friction until that final release. He's not even embarrassed because hey, the both of you got lost in the moment.

The two of you are just crazy about each other.

GOSHIKI TSUTOMU

This guy omg, he flits between hell yeah you're going out with him to wow he can't believe you're actually going out with him. Bear with him alright? He's a bit all over the place emotionally.

The biggest sweetie though. Like, he always has your best interests at heart but is super self sacrificing at the start.

You have to be like boy! You need to tell me what you want too! This relationship is between two people! Please!

Appreciates you so much for it. Takes awhile to get there but is finally to be able start actually breaking that habit and tell you how he's feeling and what he wants to do.

Takes you on cute little dates. Starts wanting to show off in other ways other than just his volleyball skills. (totally compliment him on those btw he will love you forever)

Shows off by taking you to restaurants he thinks you'll like. Really gushes if he is right and you like the food. 'I'm just really good at picking places, I'm so glad you like the food.'

You snort but don't pay it much mind. 'Sure thanks for bringing me.'

You've got to give it to him for at least getting his confidence back right? It's kind of sweet.

Always asks permission to do things, like even the little things, doesn't just do it. 'Can I hold your hand?' or 'Can I hold you.' even 'Can I kiss you.' It's very endearing.

He has a blush on his cheeks every time even after you've been in a relationship for awhile. It's not that he's nervous anymore he's just really excited still. He will always be exited to be with you!

Really wants you to be at his games (if you can). He says it gives him extra strength knowing you're there cheering him on in person. Always asks for a kiss before the match too. It's for luck.

If you can't make it to the game he will ask for two extra kisses for EXTRA luck. Honestly he will just miss you but you don't need to know that. He also just likes kissing you.

The first time he tried to kiss you he accidentally got your nose. Was so embarrassed you had to grab him and kiss him to make him calm down. It didn't calm him down but it made him stop babbling lmao.

His love language is also Word of affirmation so praise that guy! Tell him you appreciate him and that he's the coolest, most talented guy you know.

One time, in bed while you were giving him a handjob you told him that he was the hottest, strongest ace you've ever seen and he let out the loudest moan and came right there and then. You just caressed his face and stroked him through it.

That's how you learnt that words of praise REALLY affected him. Especially in the bedroom. You could be in the middle of making out or having sex and a few praising words will having him moaning and tettering on the edge.

It's fascinating to watch just how quickly his brows knit together and his whines spill out.

Goshiki is very big on reciprocation too. He never likes to leave you hanging if he cums first. A bit of an overachiever too. If he cums once before you, he wants to make you cum twice.

Will spend hours going down on you. Kissing and biting up and down your thighs. Sometimes gets a bit hung up marking you he needs some help getting directions back to the main event.

Won't ever forget to please you though. Just likes to admire every inch of your body first.

Kagehina yap because I can't get them out of my brain even tho I need to go to bed bc I have a full day of lectures tomorrow,,,

(be warned yall that this is a long one, which is why I've put the big explanation under the cut)

Okay so Kagehina shouldn't be getting together before Brazil Arcc. If you wanna write them before then, go ahead I love a good bit of hs kghn or long-distance kghn as much as the next person. However, for their characters at the end of HS, I feel like they need to have the Adlers v MSBY match before they should be in a relationship:

The end of 3rd year:

At the end of their third year, Kageyama is still not fully open with Hinata, let alone anyone else. I'm not saying that you have to be completely open with everyone before getting into a relationship, but I think for their dynamic, he needs to learn to be more open with his emotions than he is at that point before you can have two personalities like him and Hinata in a relationship together.

At the end of third year, Hinata is still nowhere near Kageyama's skill level in volleyball. Again, I'm not saying that they need to have equal skill levels to be in a relationship however, Hinata does have a major inferiority complex about this specifically when compared to Kageyama and I don't think that, with he skill level he is at in 2015 (when they graduate). He can't catch up with Kageyama by becoming a skilled player in his own right without going to Brazil, we know this, but going to Brazil also develops his personality as well as his vb skills. He is now more confident and has learnt a lot and so he is able to be on what he considered equal footing with Kageyama (what he considered is the important part here bc of his issues with comparing himself to Kageyama, which we see the whole way through the story).

Now flip to post Brazil:

At this point, Kageyama has begun to open up a bit more by spending time with his teammates, mostly on Adlers, but you can assume JNT as well - we just don't see much of that bc Hinata is the protag, and he's busy sulking over Kags not visiting him atp. Like we can see this in small things like him showing Ushijima the photo of Hinata and Oikawa. He is now more open than he was in hs but he hasn't talked to (at least not much more than maybe like a couple two message interactions) Hinata in a couple years as far as we know. Because of their whole soulmate thing because Kageyama is still somewhat alone because of his skill level (see Kazuyo's promise)

At this point, Hinata is finally confident in his skill level, I mean, he was practically unknown and got into the MSBY D1 starting line-up. However, I think it's important to note that atp he has not beaten Kageyama so although he has definitely improved - he's earned the title of Ninja Shoyo, which is his own compared to the little giant (I can also yap abt that honestly) - he doesn't know whether he has caught up with Kageyama who, for all he knows could have improved just as much as he did in the time they were apart. Hinata might now have many brain cells, but he knows enough that it's silly to think that Kageyama has not improved at all while playing with the JNT and being in VL D1 since high school.

Post-Adlers v MSBY match:

Kageyama has now opened up. This bit is less about opening up to those around him (although he has, see "took you long enough") and is more about him being open with his own emotions. Obviously, he's not suddenly fixed years of emotional repression in one match, but he's chosen to open himself up to Hinata (see being happy/smiling at losing a match) and therefore also open with the audience (we finally see his backstory - that idea is not mine it's from this post it's rlly good u should read it). At this point, I feel like he is ready to have a healthy relationship with Hinata while still working through his other issues. He isn't going to be magically perfect now, but still, he's at a maturity point where he would be able to be in a relationship with someone as competitive as him and Hinata are together.

Hinata has now won against Kageyama. He now knows and feels confident with his skills as a player of his own right and worth, and so now his competition with both people like Hoshiumi and then especially with Kageyama is not going to be him seeing himself as the small junior high version of him who got beaten in 30 minutes still trying to prove himself, but the amazing Ninja Shoyo who is an amazing all-rounder and a wing spiker (the position he's wanted to play in order to be ace which he didn't get a chance to play before). He has grown as a person already while in Brazil, but this win is simply confirmation that he has done what he went there to do. He can trust that he made the right choice to leave Kageyama and the trust and dynamic that they had created (which was a major worry of his through the first part of the Brazil arc - with the homesickness and seeing Kageyama in the Olympics) and is better for it. this game proves it all to him, and he can welcome Kageyama and a possible relationship with him now that they are equals, rivals and a team at the same time.

Finally, onwards:

We finally see that they are together, whether you want that to be as teammates and best friends/platonic soulmates or as romantic soulmates it's up to you, but we see that they have improved both in vb and in their relationship together (see one of my fav panels to ever exist with their fist bump in JNT uniforms).

They are on the same team together, except stronger, when they go to the Olympics together. And then when we see after that, they still have a strong dynamic with them both declaring they're going to win in the Ali Roma v ASAS São Paulo game which makes me think that they keep in contact a lot better than they did while Hinata was playing beach - only bc there seems to be less of the tension that is there when they meet before the MSBY Adlers game.

Anywaysss that pretty much concludes my yap on why they shouldn't get together until after the Brazil arc. I could probably say a billion more things about this, but this was the best way to get any sort of coherence from me about this. I will probably do more yaps so if people want, feel free to ask me questions in my ask box or in the notes!!!!

(Also I hope yall appriciate the colour coding, I chose the purple over the blue cause I felt it was more Kageyama coded, at least on my phone it is)

“Huff huff… This is taking forever! How does Tanjiro do this so fast?” Nezuo thinks to herself, leaving trails of her footprints in the snow. The wind blows through the woods, her hair threatening to come undone from the next tug. She fiddles with the strap so the basket won’t fall off, continuing to think about how much of a pain this journey is. She starts to feel pity on her older brother who walks up this hill almost every day to sell coal. “Wow Tanjiro… The patience you have is insane..”

It’s been a day since she went off down to the village to sell coal. She planned to be home by midnight but thanks to her dear neighbor, Enmu had let her rest and stay the night. Still eternally grateful for what he’s done, she mentally thanks him once again continuing up the mountain. She looks back up, out of breath like she’s ready to collapse and she notices the roof of her house just some trees away.

Finally, she reaches her stop.

Nezuko practically runs the rest of the way up to her home, smiling happily. Finally, she can rest again, finally she can talk to her family, finally she can hug them all in a tight hug, finally she can check up on their well being, finally she can do her old tasks.

She freezes, staring at the open door. It’d be fine to leave the door open, they tend to leave it open all the time it’s just… Why was it so quiet? It was… Too quiet.

“Takeo? Hanako? Tanjiro? Shigeru? Rokuta? Mom…?” Nezuko called out for their names, wandering around the outside of their house thinking all of this was just a silly game. “Perhaps they're still asleep? But Takeo doesn’t sleep late… Maybe they were worried about me? Haha, how cute!” the girl chuckles at the thought, they’ve all had those moments worrying night about each other- especially their big brother Tanjiro. 

I mean, nothing bad can go wrong right?

She goes back to the door, still open letting the cold air in. Nezuko felt uneasy, her mind kept screaming at her to run and not look back. Like what was inside her beloved house was now a nightmare. However, Nezuko doesn’t step back. She pushes her doubtful feelings away- there could be nothing awful in the house and if she's the big sister, she’ll take care of it!

Iwaizumi is the kind of guy to let little kids win arm wrestling matches so they feel strong. For example Takeru Oikawa has 'beat' Iwaizumi and brags about it to Oikawa saying it was easy and that he should've tried harder. Iwaizumi always plays along saying he will beat him next time

Tendou walks around the house singing songs from your shared playlist and stops waiting for you to finish the lyrics to the song. LOVES when you play along.

Kuroo has a cat headband. Like the kind that pushes your hair back. No one else knows but he thinks he looks cute.

Kyotani is an amazing singer. Once after practice he was humming to himself which turned into singing. When he got out the team was standing there shocked. Mattsun still has the video.

Kageyama does anything Suga tells him too. Like once he was hungry and Suga told him he could leave if he got everyone food as a joke but Kags came back arms full of food.

Nishinoya sounds like beast boy imo, had to put that out there

Akaashi is super outgoing with bokuto when they are alone. When they are studying he gets bored and stands up doing a dramatic performance for Bokuto and gets him to join. Bokuto doesn't understand how he goes from 0 to 100 real quick and finds it funny. no one believes him if he tries to tell anyone.

iwaizumi promised Oikawa when they were little to hit everyone who hurt him, which is why he hits him so much because Oikawa is the meanest to himself

Bokuto is banned from having regular coffee. To keep him entertained Kuroo will give him decaf coffee but mostly drown it in milk. Bokuto really loves it because it's basically milk.

Tanaka lost a bet to Noya and had to wear a hot pink basically glowing to a practice match with Seijoh. Oikawa made fun of him so hard and Iwaizumi punched him but smiled.

Hinata believes in ghost and Tanaka and Noya give him hell for it.

Tsukishima has stretch marks from growing super fast

Yamaguchi's freckles are actually acne scars

Bokuto gives great hugs

Kita is a close second

The captains have meetings and they are absolutely FERAL. Like heres how I imagine it would go down

Daichi: SHUT UP MY MOM IS CALLING.

Kuroo: *moans as loud as possible while clapping his hands*

Bokuto: DAICHI!! PASS THE WEED

Oikawa: *crying in the corner because Ushijima made a comment of him being built like a doorframe*

Ushijima: Hi Mrs. Sawamura

Seijoh has a group chat dedicated to ugly pictures of Oikawa

Nishinoya used to bite people

Kuroo sings opera in the shower

Tsukishima dresses as a dinosaur every year but its a full body costume so no one knows but yamaguchi

suga learned french so he could shit talk people behind their backs

Kageyama knows he looks like a blueberry so he eats them when he is sad

Kyotani is ambidextrous. Don't ask why. He just is.

When you ask Bokuto his favorite color he says the color of your eyes

Tanaka wears your perfume

Bokuto loves hide and seek

Tanaka is a shoe guy 💀

i’ve been thinking about haikyuu name meanings again, so i thought i’d share two of the name meanings that make me smile a lot :)))

木　boku - tree 兎　to - rabbit (?) 光　kou - shining, glory, pride 太郎　tarou - “great” son or first son 赤　aka - red, communism (??) 葦　ashi - reed (?) 京　kei - ten quadrillion; other readings (kyou, tokyo), capital city 治　ji - govern, regulate

so i’ve purposefully kept the direct kanji meanings, even tho most of them are simple and/or non sensical when applied to bokuto and akaashi’s character. but i've done so to replicate my own confusion and (hopefully) eventual satisfaction when i’d worked tho the many layers of word play.

so the first character of bokuto’s name 木 (tree) i originally thought was supposed to tie him to owls, yknow bc owls are often sitting in trees, and that might be part of it, but when 木 is used in adjectival constructions (so instead of ‘tree’ it might mean more ‘wooden’) and applied to people it often carries pejorative connotations of stupidity, close to the english ‘blockheaded’ - which i have to admit. did make me chuckle. (note: i thought there might be some connection between boku and boke the insult kags is always launching at hinata but they seem to be unrelated go figure)

兎 (to) was another confusing one, since ordinarily 兎 is the character for usagi (rabit), but when read as to there didn't seem to be any real mean associated with it, which is funny because most of the names in hq!! have more thought put into them then that. i was just about to write it off, when i looked up the two kanji together on wiktionary and-

木兎　mimizuko - alt. spelling for eagle/horned owl

see above: eagle owl and bokuto koutarou for comparaison.

so basically in bokuto's name there is both a pun calling him a bit thick and a pun with the type of owl that inspired him how fucking incredible is that??? i personally love it

光太郎 (koutarou) seems to be a bit more of a traditional name, and we also have a very clear in-universe explanation for it's meaning. bokuto is the youngest of three with two older sisters, and it seems mr and mrs bokuto were very proud to finally have a son (ehhh patriarchy sucks sorry it is what it is) and wanted to give him a name that reflected their feelings. however, i do also think that 光 can also be taken to represent bokuto's presence in the series as a whole.

the first meaning of 光 being 'shining' obviously makes me think of the most bokuaka line in all of canon "we are the stars of the world" (ik some translations use protagonists in place of stars but shhh i'm being symbolic plus the vers i read used "stars"), because bokuto is such a star, he shines so brightly, and motivates so many people (the least of whom being akaashi and the rest of fukurodani). bokuto was always destined for glory and stardom in volleyball, but i think he's also just. so bright of a person. like yes, ofc he has his moods and his caprices, but that doesn't change how much he just, well, shines, brightens up a room. i don't know how much of this was intentional or accidental, but i like it.

~

like with bokuto's name, i ran into a bit of trouble with 赤葦 (akaashi) at first. literally, it means red reed, which didn't really seem significant. although 赤 (aka) also means 'red' as in 'communist' so now even tho it is certainly not at all the intended meaning i now and forever will headcanon akaashi as being a communist or someone at the very least well versed in communist theory. however, like with bokuto, akaashi's name is actually a reference to アカアシフクロウ (akaashi-fukuro) or アカアシモリフクロウ (akaashi-mori-fukuro), so another type of owl

i've already talked about what i find so amusing about 京治 (keiji) in this post, but to summarise here (actually maybe this counts as an expansion?), the most relevant part to akaashi's character is the second kanji 治, meaning to govern or to regulate. 治 is sometimes used on it's own, but it is also often used in compounds related to peace, healing, (and politics, my commie akaashi headcanon wins again hahaha).

i think akaashi's character evolves from what it was intended to be, and i'm not sure how accurate this meaning is by the time we reach the end of canon (or maybe i've just been reading to much bokuaka fic and it's skewing my perception of him), but akaashi started out a bit like bokuto's external emotional regulator. for someone with as insane mood swings as bokuto, mood swings that other people struggled to understand and react to, he must have had quite a hard time, and indeed we're shown that his difficulties managing his emotions seriously and negatively affects his performance on the court. enter akaashi. akaashi, who through careful observation, quickly learns to not just react to bokuto's mood swings, but to understand them, their causes, and even eventually to anticipate them, effectively giving bokuto the tools he needs to learn to control his emotions and continue giving his all like akaashi knows he can.

i think it's relevant that 治 is also used to talk about healing and peace, (and not just governing which has rather unfortunate implications of control and coercion that i don't particularly like) because that is what akaashi's presence in bokuto's life ultimately provides, as evidenced by bokuto's growth by the end of the series ("hey look guys i'm just a normal ace!" meaning he's learned to manage his emotions by himself, something that i think would have been a much longer and harder journey without akaashi's influence).

when i said i'm not sure how accurate 治 is when applied to akaashi's character by the end of the series, i mean that i think it downplays the reciprocal nature of bokuto and akaashi's relationship, because for as much as akaashi helps bokuto manage his mood swings, bokuto also provides a lot of emotional support and motivation to akaashi. and i'm not sure this was something that furudate had already taken into account when first coming up with these characters.

i think there might be smaller symbolic meaning relating to akaashi's position as a setter, but that's really only a minor detail i think...

anyways, there you have it! bokuaka kanji meanings and thoughts!! do let me know if you have different interpretations, or if i've missed something, i really really reallyyyyy like talking about things like this but for now brb i am going to go read like a dozen bokuaka oneshots xx

[eunoiaaaivy]

you're enough.

tw: breakdown, angst, hurt with comfort, a bit of cyber-bullying and bad comments (not from kags).

a/n: purely self-indulgent, hihi.

the sounds of crying resonates through the dimly-lit condo as you heave up and down. you couldn't breathe properly, the sadness consumed you in a way you never wanted. haven't you given enough?

a hand, a very warm hand at the small of your back coos you gently. kageyama didn't mind at all, he felt at frantic no matter how gentle his touch was.

kageyama wasn't good with this, he was awkward. but seeing you breakdown like this hurts him so bad, he could hear his heart shattering as your sobs became more louder.

each sob resonating the wall break his heart, the weight of the world was on your shoulders yet he can't figure out how to fix this. how to remove it from your shoulders.

this burnt out state you're in- this mess you were in, was so valid. yet the way you shook uncontrollably made his mind feel a bit haywired, short circuiting while it tried to comfort you.

"haven't i given enough, tobio? im so exhausted, so tired yet i can't even feel enough." you sobbed out to his chest, chin on top of your head as kageyama's hand continues to soothe you out.

"who said that love? you've done more than enough- you're enough. your feelings are valid. i know you're sad and im sorry for not knowing how to comfort you...but im always here for you." kageyama said in an awkward voice, but panicked quickly as you sobbed more on to his chest.

"i don't deserve you tobio! you shouldn't have a girlfriend who's sobbing because of other people's mean comments!" you wailed out more as you clutched his shirt. it hurts to know that you received so much hate, so much pressure from his fans.

"hey, who said that? what matters is i love you...and that i have you." the blue eyed adult whispered out in a bit of aggression, angry to whoever said that to you.

"but you could've done better you know? you could've found someone better, prettier and just perfect for you." you muttered out in a hurt tone, a clear indicator you were on the edge.

"and i did, because i have you. you're enough for me, im sorry for the way my fans treat you. i'll ask help from the pr to help us fix this. you don't have to pressure yourself." he whispers out quietly, breath stammering with the way this pressure was so...consuming and negative.

a kiss to your forehead, and long words he doesn't drag out outside of the corridors comfort you. sniffles turning in to laughter and a small smile replacing the frown you once had.

kageyama had to put a stop on to this. and so he did. the team posted a message, a text for privacy and respect. it may hurt, but doesn't his fans want him to be happy?

the bullying came to a stop as kageyama became more private on all his socials, pictures of fits and after-games with his teammates. what they don't know is that his other private account was filled with his everyday life- pictures of the both of you. from dates to gifts to just pictures of yourself.

kageyama stares at his phone, the picture of you wearing one of the biggest smiles he has seen after a few months. it makes his heart beam with pride as he gets to call you mrs. kageyama now, a big grin showing up on his face as he sees the wedding ring on your ring finger once he plopped his phone down on the bed.

you really were enough for him.

———————————————————————

I can feel my fingers going numb as I cling to the vest of the Anbu that's been babysitting me the past couple of days. They hate when I call it babysitting but it's what they've been doing. "Kid, loosen your grip," my makeshift nanny says, trying to force my grip loose. I do as I'm told, loosening my hold a bit so my knuckles are no longer white.

      I keep a hold on them though, following behind them blindly as we weave around the Hokage's palace. I don't know why I'm here. All I've been told is Lord Third wants me to meet someone. It's probably another shabby attempt at adoption.

     Ever since Lord Fourth died, I along with his baby have been left alone in the world. I've seen the baby a few times. He's the cutest little bean in the world. Chucks of blonde hair on his head, cute little whiskers imprinted on his face, and the chubbiest cheeks I've ever seen. I think his name is Naruto but I'm not too sure about that either. I'm not too sure about anything.

     I can't tell if I'm looking into it too much or not but I'm pretty sure Lord Third has been purposely keeping me away for Minato's and Kushina's baby. I think the Lord is worried I'll get too attached to the baby. After all, Kushina and her husband took me in after my father's death during the war. That technically makes me the bean's family I suppose.

Maybe the Lord is right for keeping Naruto and me apart. He has to have his reasonings for it. I know the little bean has the Nine-Tail locked up in him, just like his mother did. Maybe that's why the Kage is so worried about Naruto getting attached to me, or me to him.

From my thoughts consuming my attention, I don't notice Mr - or Ms - Nanny has stopped, which causes me to bump into them. "I'm sorry," I murmur, getting sharp eyes cast down at me. Not the best reaction but better than a lecture.

"Remember your manners," Nanny says, glaring at me for another second before opening the door in front of us.

     The command is a mix of my mouth with the Hokage and said attitude scaring off the people who were 'considering taking me in'. I have a bad - ego-humbling - habit of reminding Lord Third that he's not Minato, among other things. I think Kushina would be proud of me. Maybe that's why the Kage doesn't want me around her son.

"Y/N," Nanny's voice husks out, a warning in their tone as they tug the door half open, eyes peering down at me again. Maybe Nanny is a mister.

     "Yes, Nanny," I mumble, pushing past them and walking through the doorway.

     "I am not your nanny!" They call a bit huffy as they follow behind. "I am a high-ranked Shinobi of our village! I am not a nanny!"

I let my eyes roll at their tantrum, a bit of a smile tugging at my lips. Who knew it would be so easy to break the ego of an anbu?

"Y/N!" Lord Third calls, his fake chirp to it.

"Third," I mumble, doing a half curtsey. It might make me a bad person but I can't stop wishing Lord Third died instead of Minato. Maybe he knows that and that's why he doesn't want me near the baby.

     "Jiraiya, this is the girl I was telling you about," the Lord says, turning his attention away from me.

     I perk up a bit from the name. I've heard a bit about the frog-themed sage; most notably from Minato. Kushina talked about him a bit but most of the time she just called him a pervert.

The old man looks exactly as Minato described him; red strips down his face and fluffy wolf-like white hair. He's a weird-looking man.

"Is this another attempt of you pushing off your responsibilities?" I ask before I can stop myself. I can feel the anbu's glare from here. So much for watching my manners.

A string of coughs comes from the Kage before he clears his throat. "No, no, no. Of course not. I'm just-"

"Sick of me? You know, when Minato couldn't handle my attitude he'd go for a walk. He didn't pawn me off to the nearest person." Maybe I am just being difficult.

The room goes silent as a lovely staring contest starts. Anbu glaring at me. I try not to let the regret of my words sit on my face as I look at the Hokage. Lord Third looking at me with wide eyes and a fish mouth as he struggles with his words. Lastly, Frog Man flipping between Third and me.

"As I was saying," the Lord finally pushes out, his attention turning away from me again. "Minato's student has seemed to inherit his wife's... personality." The word is painfully obvious to be a cover-up. It makes a happy smirk sit on my face. Kushina would be proud... I think. "On the plus side, it seems she did inherit Minato's drive for service too."

"Ya, no," I cut off, my previous smirk falling off my face. "I'm not willing to die for this village, much less you." I take it back, I'm not being difficult. Lord Third is a jerk and I just happen to treat him as one.

Once again silence falls over the room with stares filling it up. "So..." the white-haired man starts, "your S.O.S message was for this brat?" He asks, thumb pointed at me.

     "I'm not a brat!" I bark back, arms crossing over my chest as I glare at the frog.

     "Yes, you are."

     "No, I'm not."

     "Well, I've never met a not-brat that so openly insults the Hokage."

     "Well I've never met a Hokage that pushes off his responsibilities to the point that his co-worker dies," I hiss out, teeth clenched hard enough that ripples of pain circle around my jaw.

     A gasp falls from the anbu posted up at the door. The gasp is quickly followed by a deep, exhausted sigh from the old man behind the desk. "Y/N," Kage says slowly, eyes snapping closed and another sigh spilling from him. "I... please wait outside."

     "And if I don't?"

     "Out-" Lord Third yells before softening his tone, "-side, please."

     I let my eyes slit, nails digging into my arms as I stare at the sorry excuse for a leader. "Don't be mad at me because Minato was a better Hokage in his short rein than you've been for the past handful of decades."

     Lord Third's face scrunches up, his knuckles bumping against his desk a couple of times before he opens his eyes. "Please wait outside," he repeats, tone even and cold. I hit a nerve with that insult. Good, he deserves it. If Lord Third has no haters left, just know I'm buried six feet under.

     I glare at the village leader for another beat before turning away. I waste no time weaseling out the door, anbu glare hot on heels.

     I hate my nanny, I hate Lord Third, I hate the frog man, and I hate Minato for dying. How could he die? How could he leave Naruto with so much responsibility at the very start of his life? How could he leave his son alone in this world? How could he leave me all alone?

     The tile of the floor is cold as I sink to it. My knees bump against my chest as I curl myself up into a small, hatred-filled ball. How much trouble would I get into for swinging on Lord Third?

     The thought scares me a bit. I know the Shinobi life is filled with a lot of violence, a lot of sadness, a lot of death, but how could I have a thought like that? How could I so quickly jump to violence? Especially against a fellow Shinobi? The Hokage none-the-less?

     The anger in my chest quickly bubbles over to sadness. I hate this month. It's the worst month of my whole life.

——————————————

     That was... interesting. Sarutobi-Sensei wasn't kidding when he said the kid has the 'personality' of Kushina.

     My eyes trail after the girl as she sulks out of the room, her anger filtering out with her. I've heard very little about her; nothing more than passing comments when my path would cross Minato's. Despite the small comments, he seemed quite proud of her. Well, she and Kakashi. All of his students, actually. Those two are the only ones still alive though.

     "Okay, I get why the message was an S.O.S. but what do you expect me to do about... that?" I ask, turning my attention back to my Sensei.

     It's hard to notice, but after all my years serving under him, I can pinpoint the proof of anger and sadness on his face. The little kunoichi mercilessly went cutthroat for the Lord. I will say, that was pretty ballsy of her. Not many - if any - Shinobi would be willing to insult the Kage to his face. Much less, such a young ninja.

     "I don't know," my sensei finally says, tone soft and eyes pushed closed again. "I am just worried that..." another sigh is pushed out his nose. "Orochimaru has been spotted with the recent death of Lord Fourth. I cannot help but wonder if it has something to do with the... loss the village is grieving."

     The small speech rolls around my head, not-so-good connections being made. "You think it has something to do with the kid - kids Minato left behind?"

     "Well, we already know Orochimaru has a vendetta against Kakashi. I would not put it past him to go against Kakashi again. Or try to go after Naruto... or Y/N." Silence fills the space between us, Lord Third thinking over his next words. "I have faith that Kakashi would have the... means to deny any 'quick to power' situation Orochimaru would try to offer or to hold his own against him again if need be. Y/N... is filled with anger and hatred for me. My past student isn't above using that as a manipulation tactic."

     I hate to admit it but that's the same conclusion I came to. I can't help but see it as a waste though. Is protecting this single student worth so much effort? Wouldn't my time be better spent doing literally anything else? "My Lord-"

     "Just think about it Jiraiya. Get to know the girl. If you decide you're not willing to take her on, I'll..."

     "You'll what?" I push slightly, my eyes turning back to the door.

     "I'll have to pull her as a Shinobi. I cannot take the risk of Orochimaru having such an easy target. Even if my worse fears don't happen, I can't have a Shinobi with unchecked anger."

     My eyes glance back to my sensei before settling on the exit again. This seems like a whole bunch of not my problem.

     The room is filled with the sound of the Kage moving his chair and the soft sound of him sitting down. "It would be such a shame to lose her as a Shinobi. She might be a bit hot-headed, but she sure does possess your student's loyalty and spirit."

     The words sting a bit, to the point I can understand the Kunoichi's rush to anger. I've done a good job avoiding the acknowledgment of Minato's death. I've done an even better job at refusing to process it.

     "What's to come of his son?" I ask, using it as an excuse to further push the dread out of my thoughts.

     "I'll take care of him for now. Naruto... will have a difficult life. One that I'm sure will lead him to you sooner or later. But, for now, Naruto does not need your guidance, Y/N does."

     The bundled-up guilt trip doesn't work as well as I'm sure my sensei wishes it would. It still seems like a waste of time. You can have as much loyalty and spirit as you want but it won't make you a good or useful Shinobi.

     "Give it a week Jiraiya. Get to know the girl how you wish, but at least give her a chance before you chalk her up as a dead end."

     That guilt trip didn't work either. At the very least, I was given an order so I'll obey it. I don't know what my sensei thinks a week will change. A short-tempered, anger-riddled Shinobi has no place as an active-duty ninja. She would serve the village much better after being pulled from the Shinobi rankings.

"As you wish," I mumble before following the kunoichi's previous path. Sometimes I don't know what goes through my Sensei's head.

——————————————

What a waste of time is all I can think of as I walk down one of the roads of the village. The Lord has insisted I visit the village nursery to 'at least meet Naruto'. I don't have time for a student, let alone a baby. Despite that, I'm not one to deny an order. Which is why I'm huffily walking to the nursery with a pass gently tapping against my chest.

When the nursery comes into view, I'm a lot less mad about being ordered to make a stop. The two ladies at the desk are a sight for sore eyes, and my eyes are definitely sore. I take my time walking in front of the nursery, using this chance to soak in their beauty through the giant windows.

"Welcome in!" The blonde one says once the bell above the door rings. "Who are you here to pick up?"

"You, hopefully," I answer a little too eagerly.

That doesn't work how I want it to. Her cheery smile falls as the redhead behind the desk chuckles a little. "Don't pay the Sannin any mind," the redhead says, standing up and walking around the desk. She squeezes the blonde's shoulder and whispers something in her ear. Ms Blondie groans before walking away. I would be pretty upset with her leaving if the sight of her walking away wasn't so nice.

"Jiraiya," Ms Red-Head calls, pulling me from the beautiful curves of Ms Blondie. Again, I'm not too upset, the woman in front of me is nice to look at too. "My condolences for Lord Fourth," she says gently, face going soft with pity as she looks at me.

It's annoying having everyone in the village look at me like this. So what Minato died? It's part of the Shinobi life. Everybody knows that, including me. He died with honor, why would that upset me? I don't care about his death, he was just one of many students... maybe I care a little bit. Just a tad, if I care at all, which I don't.

"Thank you," I grumble, turning my focus away from the girl in front of me. All of a sudden she's not as beautiful as I thought she was.

Silence hangs in the air for a while before a screech is let out down the hallway. "What do you think you're doing?! You're making him upset! Give him back!" A voice calls anger and fear very evident in it.

     "Is someone trying to steal a kid?" I ask, sparing a glance at Ms Redhead again.

     She lets out a long, deep sigh before rubbing her temples. "No, Y/N gets a little... protective of Naruto when we try to separate them for any reason." The word any is stressed so heavily I almost feel bad for the nursery worker. It seems Minato's little kunoichi has been making problems for everyone.

     "Give him back!" The whine comes again. A door slamming cuts off her next sentence but that doesn’t stop her little rant. "You're upsetting Naruto!" She isn't wrong about that, Minato's kid is screaming his lungs out.

     The train wreck making its way down the hallway is a bit funny; the hot-headed Shinobi tugging on the worker as said worker tries to keep the baby out of reach. Kushina’s personality sure as hell is poking through.

“Fine! Take him!” The nursery worked says, her patience finally breaking.

Within seconds, the bundle of blanket and Minato’s legacy is pressed against Y/N’s chest, her hold soft but strong. Lulls and hums spill from her as she ogles over the baby, who does calm down.

My heart tings at the sight of stress evident on the older child’s face as she worries about Naruto. Sensei was right about Y/N being too attached. No, nope, I’m not getting attached now too. So what if Minato’s student stresses herself to death over his son? That’s not my problem. That’s her problem. Even if she is just a baby herself… a baby that lost another set of parents… which isn’t my problem. At all.

I turn on my heels, shoving the image of Y/N clinging to Naruto like a lifeline out of my head. I met Naruto, at least as well as Y/N will probably let me, so my assignment is complete. I tried, not my fault I failed.

——————————————

Between Sensei’s goose chase, villagers down my throat, and helping out with the smaller missions, I’ve had no time for my research.

Until today anyway. I managed to avoid Sensei so he couldn’t ‘accidentally’ guide me onto Y/N’s path. She’s getting suspicious that it’s not accidents anymore, so at least she has a bit of a brain behind her eyes.

I try not to let a smirk sit on my face as I walk into the bathhouse. The last thing I need is someone getting a bad feeling; I can’t get band from another hot spring. Especially one of the only mixed-gendered bathhouses still in the village. It saddens me a bit that it’s a swimsuit required spring but hey I’ll take a bathing suit and hot women over no women and nudity.

It was a blur, check-in, changing, and walking out to the spring. Not so much a blur now, but it is disappointing. There’s only one other person in the spring, their back facing me as I rinse off. Their head is tilted back, towel covers their face as most of them are dipped into the spring. Only the tops of their - bare - shoulders and random strains of hair are visible.

The person is tiny compared to me. Small frame, almost fragile looking. The idea of it being a child flickers through my head but is quickly ran off. It’s school hours so civilian children would be in class and the new shinobis should be busy with their sensei.

Once the water starts running cold, I turn it off and grab my towel. Even if there’s only one pretty lady to look at, I’m not letting my money go to waste. Plus, maybe they’ll be very pretty… or maybe it’s just a feminine guy.

I shake the idea out of my head as I approach the water. I take my time, tying my hair into a bun and looking over the other person. That is definitely a child, which makes me a pervert. Maybe Tsunade is right about my hormones getting the better of me. Once again, I shake my previous thoughts out of my head as my face scrunches up.

“Jiraiya, are you stalking me?” The hazy voice comes, sleep almost evident in it. What child is skipping out on their responsibilities to sleep at the hot springs?

“What?” I ask, arms dropping to my sides once my bun is set in place.

A pruning hand smoothly escapes the water, not even a ripple being made as it moves. I watch carefully as the little lady removes the towel from her face; being met with the features of an exhausted Y/N. What the hell? Is this some master plan of Sarutobi-Sensei?

“No,” I answer shortly, eyes jumping around her face. The stress is catching up to her, lines and dark circles already starting to form on her face. If Y/N keeps stressing herself out like this, her stress lines will be at Itachi’s level in no time.

The familiar ping is back. I hate to admit it but every time I’ve come across her, my heart has torn a bit more. I see Minato’s loyalty to the villagers, Kakashi’s kindness, Obito’s childishness, Rin’s undying love for everyone, and so many hardships. God damn it Sarutobi, why do you always have to be right? Just the thought of my sensei is pissing me off.

“Seems like it,” she mumbles, sliding her towel back over her face; this time only her eyes are covered.

“How’d you know it was me?” I ask, sparing her another glance before sinking into the water. I take my time, letting the water work around my muscles while making sure to keep space between myself and the child. The last thing I need is people calling me a pedo instead of a perv.

There’s a long hum before Y/N shifts some in the water, a bone or two creaking as she does so. “Before… everything, Minato started me on the basics of senjutsu. Mostly just sensing energies around me and such.”

Congrats Sensei, Minato is now at the top of my shit list. How could I leave this kid half trained on senjutsu? Especially with the threat of Orochimaru hanging in the air?

“I don’t think I’ve been around you enough for you to be able to pick out my chakra,” I push gently, hoping to find out how far her training had gone. Another hum but no answer follows it. Y/N is not going to let me have my way easily is she?

The space stays silent other than the natural noises of the spring. At that moment the girl across from me hasn’t moved, making me a bit worried she fell asleep. It’s not safe to sleep in a body of water, even if there is someone else around. She doesn’t trust me enough to sleep in such dangerous conditions… I don’t think.

When I go to move to check if Y/N is asleep, she finally breaks the silence. “You keep popping up because Lord Third is worried about Orochimaru, right? He’s worried if you don’t train me that I’ll turn to the snake sage to finish my training?”

I freeze in the middle of the spring, ripples stretching out without new ones following. “What makes you say that?” I ask carefully, eyes scanning the child in front of me. She’s covered in markings, bruises being the lesser and scares being the more decor. There’s a mix of scars, some still fresh and pink while others are a faded white color. Y/N definitely has put her time into the Shinobi world. Most notably the Nine-Tail attack that took her Sensei.

“I’m not dumb, Froggy Sage,” she hisses, head snapping up and towel being discarded from her face. “I know your fellow Sage didn’t like Minato and I’ve heard the whispers of him being sighted. If they’re true, Naruto, Kashi, or me are most likely his targets.”

I almost laugh at the nickname. I’ve never had someone call me Froggy before and I can’t tell if I like it or not. “Just, tell Lord Third to stop worrying. I have no interest in Orochimaru or any power trip he’ll try to manipulate me with. You can also let him know I won’t be mad at him forever too.”

My head spins with the thought of Y/N overhearing my conversation earlier this week. Does she mean it or is she just trying to play me?

I let my body sink back into the warm water, this time seated closer to the girl. “So… what’s the deal with Minato’s baby?” I’m getting tired of asking questions.

“He’s almost two months old so he doesn’t do much. He smiled for the first time the other day. The nursery says Naruto can hold up his head during tummy time now, which they say is good. I’m worried he’s a bit behind though. Keiko says I’m just anxious though.”

“Keiko?”

“The red-head you googled at the other day. She’s Naruto’s primary caregiver.”

I roll around Y/N’s answer for a second, even though that’s not what I meant. “What’s your deal with Naruto?”

Another hum, though this time the melody is different. “I just worry about him. I don’t want him to be alone in the world. Though, he has Lord Third and Kakashi too.”

“We will be traveling a lot so you’ll have to check your attachment.” What?! That’s the first answer that pops into my head? That’s what spills from my mouth?

I did not mean that. There is no ‘we’ just ‘me’. I travel a lot, Y/N stays here, in the village, with her anxious attachment to Minato’s son. How do I take that back? Do I say ‘just kidding’ and hope I get a minor reminder of Kushina’s anger issues?

“We?” Y/N asks, eyes sharp and guarded as she looks at me.

“Yes.”

No!

That is not the answer! The answer is no because there is no ‘we’. I do missions alone, I travel alone, and definitely do not travel with a child-aged girl. Do you know how much of a damper she’ll be on my women game? Or maybe she’ll help with it… no!

A huge smile cracks across her face, stress marks damping with her happiness. “You really mean it?”

“Yes.”

Maybe.

Her body loosens a bit as she moves closer, a good amount of space still between us but she’s still noticeably closer. “Is it pity training?” Y/N asks, a sad teasing tone to her words, and her smile all of a sudden seeming fake.

“No.”

The smile is back, huge, happy, and reaching her eyes this time. God damnit Minato, why did you have to have such skilled students? I can’t let their potential go to waste.

“This is going to be fun,” Y/N whispers to herself before crawling out of the hot springs. Her skin is a bit pink, making the faded scars stand out more.

“Yes,” I answer to myself, letting out a small huff. Why’d I let myself get attached? I don’t have time for a student, let alone the patience for one. And yet… I just signed myself up for the one that’s going to test my patience the most.

“I’ll see you tomorrow, Froggy,” Y/N says, patting my bun before turning around to walk away.

“I don’t like that nickname! It’s not sticking!” I call after her.

“Yes, it is!” She calls back before the door cuts off our conversation.

Yes.

It’s going to stick because I could hear the smile in her voice as she said it. “Screw you,” I mumble to the sky, smile on my face as I say it. I can imagine Minato laughing his ass off at the situation he left for me, the situation I talked myself into. I guess Minato won’t be the only unofficial child I have anymore.

Wanted Cuddles ||

summary: cute first sleepover

pairing: Hinata Shouyou X Kageyama Tobio

genre: fluff

warnings: Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics, Cuddling & Snuggling, Alpha Kageyama Tobio, Omega Hinata Shouyou, Romantic Fluff

Kageyama's POV

I waited nervously outside the Hinata's house this would be the first time I would be staying over at his house since we had started dating.

Knocking on the door I watched as his mother opened the door with Natsu his sister on her hip. "Ahh Kageyama it's always a pleasure to see you isn't that right Natsu." She cooed.

Turning her attention back to me she smiled. "Kageyama don't tell shouyou I said this but he's been nervous about you staying over so don't be surprised if there are any distressed pheromones around his room." She forewarned letting me inside the house and showing me the way to his room.

Making my way up the stairs I thought it was best to let him know I was there so I rapped on the door. "Momm I told you that we don't need any more snacks." He complained opening the door and pausing when he noticed I was there.

My voice got caught in my throat at the sight of him he looked like an angel. "Bakeyama bakeyama are you okay." He said worriedly moving closer to me.

"Boke of course I'm fine." I snapped at him instantly feeling bad at his confused face. "I'm sorry it's just... I'm really anxious." Which earned me a soft smile.

"Would you like to come inside the room?" He asked eagerly to which of course I said yes plonking myself down on his bed I just watched as he started rambling cutely about what he had planned. I really didn't mind what we did as long as it was with my mate.

Time Skip

We were now watching an anime series called 'Haikyuu' it was about volleyball which we both loved he had been solely focused on the series for ages but now we both were feeling tired. "Kags umm if you want you can sleep in my bed." Hinata piped up I was so excited I had been waiting for him to ask.

"Yeah sure that's okay," I said trying to act nonchalant

We began preparing to sleep getting ready I made my way to his bathroom. "C'mon Tobio you are going to be fine you guys are dating this should be normal now," I whispered psyching myself up then began making my way back.

"To not make this weird I should sleep on the right side and you on the left." Shouyou blushed and I agreed to lie down doing so  I resisted the urge to cuddle him and willed myself to sleep to not make this any more awkward than it should be. I sighed to myself I hope as time goes on we will be more relaxed around each other.

The Next Morning

Hinata's POV

Letting out distressed pheromones I whimpered near his ear. “Sunshine what’s the matter are you okay?” Tobio said rambling as he suddenly woke. Tobio looked at the position we were in and immediately moved away.

Waking up from the best sleep I've ever had I tried to move away but I felt confined and hot rubbing my eyes I finally realized it wasn't chains that trapped me but just Tobio's hold on me. Knowing that I felt more comforted his scent gland was right next to me I couldn't resist getting a whiff I felt relaxed he smelt like mhmm.

Fresh Oceans with a hint of blackberries... delicious.

If I wasn't careful, I would go into heat leaving me with no choice but to move away but how was I supposed to wake him up? Sigh it looks like my pheromones were my only option.

Letting out distressed pheromones I whimpered near his ear. “Sunshine what’s the matter are you okay?” Tobio said rambling as he suddenly woke. Tobio looked at the position we were in and immediately moved away.

“I’m sorry was it me I know I was supposed to stay on my side, but my alpha gets way too cuddly at night.” He rambled looking nervous I just giggled at his worry. “Tobio it's okay... I like your cuddles you were just holding me way too tight near your scent gland and I would have gone into heat.”

His face flashed with relief, so I leaned over and hugged him. “Tobio I’m glad you’re my Alpha would you like to continue cuddling me?” I smiled.

He blushed and nodded his head really fast he’s so cute I’m so glad this blueberry is my mate.

TY FOR UR SUGGESTION BB

cw: weekend adventure w kags!

“and i don't mind to devolve a bit / learn to love the simple shit / forget we sprouted legs and walked the sand”

“i think this is the best thing i’ve ever eaten.”  you grin, your mouth full of the candy bar tobio had packed in your lunches.  a few bits of it sticks to the corners of your mouth as you gobble it down like your last meal.

“you’ve said that about everything you’ve eaten so far.”  he smiles softly, taking a napkin and wiping away the crumbs still stuck to your lips.

“well, it’s true. everything tastes better after you’ve gotten to do a bit of work for it."

you and tobio survey the path you took up the mountain as you finish the last few bites of food.  you’d spent all morning hiking up to a spot that someone had recommended to the two of you.  it was a bit off the beaten path to the campsite you wanted to get to, but you had the whole weekend to explore, and it was a worth excursion.

the lake sat situated in the mountains, completed unpolluted by the business of the city miles and miles away.  it was freezing cold at such a high altitude, but that was useful in a bit of a cooldown when you were both so sweaty and overworked.

“that everything?”  he studies your empty wrappers and snack bags with a trained eye.  you nod, placing your trash in your bag.  “ready to keep going?”

you survey the area.  the lake was a deep blue, reflecting the darkest parts of the sky.  the wind rushed across it, making choppy waves diluted by the sunlight glaring off of the few peaks.

“wanna stay here just a bit longer.”

“that’s okay.”

it isn’t very often that the two of you get to go out like this.  when he has time off practice, you usually stay home and let him rest.  however, he insisted on this.  it was something that he had wanted to do for a long time.

“say, you wouldn’t mind setting up the tent right here, would you?”

he thinks for a moment, then shakes his head.  “nah.  let’s do it.”

the sun dips below the mountain peaks when you finally finish getting everything ready.  he makes sure to stir the fire when you sit down next to him on the log he dragged to the campsite.

“i just wanna live out here,” you murmur, leaning against his shoulder.  “just like… fuckin’ cavemen or something.”

“you know there are actually people who live out here, right?”  he smirks, but you feel the pressure of his head when he returns the affection.

“yeah, yeah.   just… it’s so simple, you know?”

“yeah.  i know.”

“maybe one day.”  a draft of wind brings the smoke from the fire directly into your face.  you sputter, turning your head to bury your eyes and nose into tobio’s arm to avoid the sharp sting in your eyes and throat.

“maybe one day.”

you’re silent for a few minutes, relishing in the songs of the birds and the crackling of the fire.  when you stand to go inside the tent, tobio extinguishes the fire before following you and zipping the flap up behind you.

“it would be fun… to live out here peacefully,” he comments when he settles into the sleeping bag beside you.

“yeah?”

“yeah.”  he presses a swift kiss to your temple before whispering ‘good night’ and wrapping you up in his arms.  together, you drift off peacefully to the sounds of the earth around you.

I was paired with the amazing @kalcia, whose work was truly an inspiration.

Here is your snippet; is it out of context? Yes.

Is it definably Inu/Kag? Also yes.

@inu-spiration

Kagome knelt down, her spine straight as she folded her hands to her chest. She closed her eyes to better help her concentrate on a few calming exercises before attempting the first spell. As her reiki flared around her, she heard Inuyasha back up a few paces, although it was unnecessary. He should be safe, although she amended that thought when she felt her energy clash with that of the previous caster. She frowned in concentration, focusing all of her effort on the barrier.

“Try going through now,” she told him, cracking one eye open.

Inuyasha responded by moving as he always did; quickly and with force. He didn't even have time to make a sound before he was being slammed into the wall of the cave, just as he had the first time he attempted to leave.

“Dammit!” he growled, falling to the ground.

Kagome winced sympathetically. He could take more physical abuse than a human, but that didn't make it any more pleasant.

“Sorry! I knew it was too much to hope for--let me try another.”

Inuyasha stalked back to his original position, his pride not allowing him to rub the lump he could feel forming on the back of his head.

Sending him an apologetic smile before closing her eyes once more, Kagome redoubled her efforts, hoping that at the very least, she was weakening the spell.

“Try it again.”

Once more, Inuyasha sprang forward, this time bracing himself as he was flung back.

“This is one case where I’m not happy that I was right,” she sighed, slumping slightly at her failure.

Inuyasha sat up, but wasn't as quick to move across the cave. “This spell has been in place for a long time, and we can't be sure how many people have recast and altered it. It would have been nice, but I guess I couldn't expect you to break it in one go,” he said grudgingly. The last thing he wanted was for her to give up.

“Maybe not, but I won't let this get the best of me!” Kagome replied, her jaw jutting out stubbornly. “There are still plenty of things to try, and I have a friend with scrolls that might help if I run out of options.”

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. Bold words for the person that wasn't being slammed into the wall at every attempt, but he had to admit, she had guts.

“Let’s go, then. I can take more hits than that.”

Although most of his Marks were now hidden by his clothing, Kagome had an excellent memory, and knew very well just how battered he must have been to earn each one.

“If you don't mind using a human, I know someone who add your Mark for this,” she offered quietly, hoping he wouldn't be offended.

Inuyasha froze, hardly able to believe what she was saying. Most humans thought that Marks were barbaric, and nothing more than a way to brag about the atrocities the youkai had committed against humans. While he couldn't deny that was the case for some, the Marks held a much deeper meaning, and in most cases did not involve humans at all. It was clear that Kagome had an understanding of their significance, but he couldn't help but wonder if her offer wasn't connected to the possible bond between them. He glanced away, unable to meet her eyes.

“Not sure if this is worth a Mark--or one that I wanna remember,” he finally answered.

Kagome gave a light shrug, not wanting to pressure him. “Maybe not, but I didn't think you would be able to resist getting one to rub in Sesshomaru’s face.” She grinned as his eyes jerked in her direction, an answering expression curling his lips.

“Damn, you're vindictive. I might have to take you up on that.”

“The offer is always open. Now,” she sighed, resisting the urge to rub the muscles in her legs that were beginning to protest her position, “Let’s try this again.”

They continued throughout the morning, and then into the afternoon. Each time her efforts failed and Inuyasha went sailing through the air to smack into what was becoming a sizable dent in the cave wall, Kagome felt a horrible sense of guilt.

“Dammit, Kagome!” Inuyasha howled, brushing tiny bits of stone out of his hair, one eye clenched shut while the other glared at her balefully, “Are ya tryin’ to kill me, or get me outta here by tunnling through the other side of the damn cave?”

Abruptly, the feeling passed.

~Back In The Game~

~Chapter Fifteen~

-Series Masterlist-

What happens when a girl who loves volleyball joins a boys' volleyball club? Does she find love? Will she relive her past or move forward? Join (L/N) (Y/N) on a journey with fun twists and turns.

I don't own Haikyuu or any of the characters.

-Last Time-

        “That’s not their starting setter.” You say just before the whistle, indicating the start of set three, is blown. Suddenly you all hear a new voice.

        “Did you guys let them win a set?~”

        Upon hearing the new voice you and your team turn to the source. A boy with dark brown hair swept outward and eyes of the same color is standing behind Aoba Johsai’s coach. He’s wearing their team’s volleyball jacket.

        “You’re back. How’s the ankle?” The coach asks the boy.

        “All good!” He says, holding up an ‘okay’ sign with his fingers. “After all, it was just a light sprain.” ‘Who is-’ You wonder before your question is answered.

        “Oikawa-san!!” A bunch of girls begin squealing. Tanaka and Hinata are shocked while Kageyama looks worried. You drown out all the noise and conversations as your eyes are glued to Oikawa, studying him. He starts walking toward your team, specifically Kageyama.

        “Hey, Tobio-chan! It’s been a while.” He says happily waving at Kageyama. “How’s that King stuff going?” The two setters stare at each other before you go up to Kageyama and gently touch his shoulder. He breaks eye contact with Oikawa to look at you. He sees the concern on your face but before he can react Oikawa starts talking.

        “And who’s this?~.” He asks flirtatiously.

        “I’m one of Karasuno’s managers.” You say holding out your hand with a fake smile. He shakes your hand while you continue. “(L/N) (Y/N).” Behind you, your team is glaring at Oikawa. He sees this and smirks. He pulls your hand up to his lips and kisses the back of it. You blush and are suddenly pulled away from Oikawa and pushed behind someone. You look up to see that you’re behind Kageyama. Oikawa chuckles before he’s told to warm up by his coach.

        “Gotta go.” He begins as he turns around. “Good luck Tobio-chan~,” He then looks back and meets your eyes. “Bye~ Cutie~.” He says with a wink.

        As Oikawa walks away you hear some girls talking about when Oikawa will play. You look over at Tanaka who seems to have heard the conversation also. He looks extremely angry that the brown-haired boy is getting so much attention from the girls. You walk up to him and start talking.

        “Tanaka.” He looks at you only to see that you have a mischievous look on your face. “Why don’t you use that anger to show them how awesome you are.” He looks at you with surprise before the same grin appears on his face.

        “I like your thinking (Y/N).”

        The third and final set starts and everyone is giving it their all. Tanaka is channeling his anger into his spikes, which makes them harder to receive. The duo’s quick attack is working and earning points. Kageyama and Tsukishima are working together when blocking… well sorta.

        Karasuno soon hits matchpoint with Aoba Johsai at 20 points. Onion Head spikes the ball toward Tsukishima, who fails to receive it.

        “Don’t worry Tsukishima!” You say encouragingly.

        “Nice kill Kindaichi!” One of the other players says. ‘Hm…so his name is Kindaichi…’ You think to yourself.

        You look over at the opposing bench to see Oikawa talking to his coach. He notices you looking and winks. You roll your eyes, look away, and turn to Takeda and Kiyoko.

        “Great.” You begin and they turn to you.

        “What’s wrong?” Takeda asks.

        “Oikawa is warmed up.”

        As if on cue, the whistle is blown. You look to see it’s a player substitution and Oikawa is switching with number 7. ‘He’s going in as a pinch server?’ you question yourself. You look at your teammates on the court to see Hinata surprised, Tanaka flipping Oikawa off, Daichi hitting Tanaka, and Kageyama looking nervous. ‘I don’t have a good feeling…’ you think.

        “Stay on your toes guys!” You warn. Oikawa smirks at you before speaking.

        “No matter how powerful your offense is….” He begins before pointing at Tsukishima. “...it means nothing if you can’t get the ball into play.” ‘Oh, no… this is bad.’

        Oikawa tosses the ball in the air and performs a powerful jump serve that is aimed right at Tsukishima. ‘I knew it!’ You exclaim in your head. You see Suga has figured it out as well. Tsukishima tries to receive it but fails due to his lack of skills in receiving and the sheer force of it.

        “I thought so.” Oikawa says after being awarded a point. “I was watching earlier and noticed the tall #6 and the shorty #5…” You start to worry which makes you mad because you want your boys to win. You unknowingly start to glare at Oikawa. He sees this and finishes his sentence. “...aren’t good at receiving, right?” He smiles innocently which makes you angrier. You look to see Tsukishima is also angry, and the players on the sideline and Takeda are scared.

        Oikawa serves and targets the blond again. The results are the same as before. You see Tsukishima get even more frustrated. You aren’t the only one to notice though. Suddenly Hinata starts yelling. 

        “Hey! Great King! Send it to me! I’ll get it!” He exclaims while flailing around. As Tsukishima tells the short middle blocker to stop, you see Oikawa is confused by the new nickname. Hinata then repeats Tanaka’s speech about allies which causes you to softly chuckle. Daichi then instructs the team to move so he has more of a range to receive.

        “Good thinking Daichi!” You praise the captain who smiles but his eyes don’t leave the court. “You got this guys!” You encourage as Oikawa targets Tsukishima yet again. The blond receives the ball with difficulty, earning praise from you, Suga, and Yamaguchi. Oikawa looks mockingly surprised as the ball heads to his team’s side causing it to be a chance ball.

        Oikawa receives it and passes it to #5, who sets it for Kindaichi. He spikes it but Hinata jumps and gets a one-touch leading to another chance ball. As Hinata lands, he immediately runs to the other side of the net and performs a quick attack. You watch as Hinata opens his eyes before he hits the ball right past Oikawa.

        The whole gym is silent except for the bouncing of the ball. The whistle is then blown. You look at the scoreboard as it reads 25-23 in Karasuno’s favor. Karasuno wins…

        Takeda slumps in his chair with an impressed look on his face. The boys line up as Suga asks if Takeda is okay.

        “...That was…amazing.” You giggle at his reaction as Suga enthusiastically rambles. The players run and walk up to your sensei. He becomes surprised and confused when they bow and thank him. You whisper to him to give a speech and he does. You listen to his speech but as he finishes everyone is silent which causes him to freak out and apologize. Daichi calms him down. They bow and thank him again before dispersing to get water and cool down. As they go you hear Takeda say he needs to find them a coach quickly.

        “Don’t worry sensei.” You say, causing him to look at you. “You’ll find one. I believe in you!” You say with a smile before happily running toward Tanaka, Kageyama, and Hinata who are happily chatting. Takeda watches you before softly speaking.

        “Thank you, Miss (L/N). Thank you for helping the team.”

~To Be Continued~

[inu-yasha]

Do you think Moroha is annoying? To me she is. She is too noisy and annoying. She's too much like Kagome and barley has any traits of her father. She only got the hair and red kimono. Thats it. Personality wise......100% Kagome.. To me she's only like Inuyasha because of her alibies which is just a complete copy of his. Plus her beniyasha form. Its a shame cause at the time when the so called "squeal" was announced, I actually got pretty excited even know I hated seeing the devil spawn of Kagome (I 100% hate Kagome) and I was very disappointed when it came out. I know most fans says the manga is better. I seen some pictures of it. But I dont want to waste my time reading it and get disappointed again like how I was with the series. But what what do you think of Moroha? I love your blog by the way! I love Kikyo so much! It really breaks my heart that to this day that the fandom still says she's the "worst character in the series" She deserves o much more!

I haven't seen much of the show, but from what I've seen, yes, Moroha very irritating to me. In the 1st episode of YashaHime, her voice was irritating to me,I didn't watch much… I watched until she left her daughter and stayed with Inuyasha, both absorbed into some pearl I dropped series. Moroha has a lot Kagome's traits... But I feel sorry for her.

Anon.. the manga is better because it contains Inu//Kag that's why it's better and I'm giving you this conclusion from my observation when the inukags complained and then "manga is better" because I've seen many moments with inu//kag… that's why. .. Hmm… that's how I see it. Personally, I haven't read a single chapter of this "work" for me, it's a stupid fanfic not worth my time.

And so, if Rumiko wanted to.. she would give them a child, or show that in the months that have passed since the events, Kagom is pregnant, but she was not pregnant and Rumiko did not give them a child. It's just a very low-level fanfic for people to extract money from the fans. Fanfic must sell well.

"I hated seeing the devil spawn of Kagome"

That's really strong anon, and I smiled. Well. It's not Moroh's fault she has such a mother. I heard she treated Moroha badly the first time they met after all these years or something, so I feel a bit sorry for her because it's not her fault she has this devil mother who thinks of a man more than a her baby.

Yes, I think Kagome is a terrible mother, not because I hate her, but because she chose Inuyasha over her own child. She preferred to leave the baby and go with Inuyasha. She gave her daughter away just like that and went with Inuyasha. I can't understand it.

I think she should be pitied because instead of staying with her daughter, Kagome chose a husband and orphaned her own daughter. This is something I don't understand and there is no explanation for it. But on the other hand, Sunrise showed her as the mother I imagined, jealous, choosing a husband over her own child.

I can't fully judge Moroha, because I don't know her well. In short, I see her as annoying, but I also feel sorry for her because her mother chose a man over her daughter.

I'm glad there are more people who hate Kagome <3 and thank you!! I am glad that you like my blog.It's a sad reality anon.. Kikyou will be hated forever…. it's sad.

HINATA SHOUYO

• Hinata has always been very touchy, even when you weren't closest friends and he didn't have feelings for you. But that changed when he started to like you.

• After a big event (outburst of jealousy because a blond twin "flirted" with you) he realized that maybe he had feelings for you, so as he didn't know how to deal with it he ended up distancing himself as the days went by, but only physically, because he was always by your side chattering about kageyama and volleyball.

• As you got used to it, you thought he had stopped so as not to make you uncomfortable, so you had the brilliant idea (Nishinoya and Tanaka's idea) that you would give him a little kiss on the cheek, besides it was just an innocent kiss, right?

• But as soon as he felt your lips touch his cheeks, he froze with red cheeks. You found it strange since normally any display of affection made the little tangerine jump for joy. Unfortunately you had to leave, but you left the court confused, not understanding why Hinata was like that.

• And even after you left, he remained there in shock. Meanwhile, Tsukki and Kags teased him, while Noya and Tanaka were celebrating happily for him.

KAGEYAMA TOBIO

• At first he didn't like you, he thought you were too energetic like Hinata (you only said good morning to him with a smile, that's all), so he tried his best to stay away from you, which didn't work. You ended up becoming one of the managers along with Yachi, and since you were always glued to Hinata he learned to put up with you.

• But things started to get weird the moment you met Oikawa, he wasn't jealous, ever. He just didn't like Tooru's closeness to you. That's when he started ignoring you, again.

• You hated it when he did that, ignoring you for something you had no idea what u did. Last time it was because you bought the last milk from the machine, he said you did it on purpose (he really believes that). That's why you decided to make a risky move (risky because maybe he could throw the ball in your face).

• But as soon as he felt the quick, almost imperceptible kiss, he froze. He stared at you with wide eyes and red cheeks. You thought he would start yelling at you at any moment, but he didn't. Which left you a little disconcerted, so you simply walked away.

• Hinata even hit a ball on Kageyama's head to see if he would return to normal, but it didn't work. You really broke him.

YAMAGUCHI TADASHI

• Well, honestly. It took him a while to get used to you, don't get me wrong! He thought you were the cutest, most beautiful person in the entire world, he literally fell in love at first sight. And that was exactly the problem.

• You were a totally "outgoing" person with people you were close to, with imperceptible touches and shoulder pushes. Simple things, but they drove him crazy. And he hated it even more when this didn't go unnoticed by Tsukki, because his feelings for you were obvious. Even you noticed that.

• Of course, it took you a while to realize, you were a bit of a sly person when it came to this subject. That's why when you found out and were sure of his feelings, you found a way to declare yourself (in your own way).

• It's obvious that when he felt the little kiss on his cheek he went crazy, his face turned bright red. If everyone was quiet they could hear his heart beating fast. You didn't even gave time for him to react before you smiled mischievously and simply speak "bye Yama, see you tomorrow..."

• And of course while he was sweating nervously wondering what this meant, everyone else was patting him on the back while laughing and congratulating him. Congratulating him? Why were they congratulating him? Well... it seems you're not the only one who's also sly about this subject.

TSUKISHIMA KEI

• You thought he hated you, because he usually ignored you and always looked at you with that "angry" face of his. But Yama said that wasn't it, he just wasn't used to you. And he was right, you just didn't know.

• Over time, he started talking to you more, and "learned to put up with you" (his words). And as your intimacy grew, you started to enjoy irritating him, calling him tsukki, or chattering in his ear all the time. He would always get irritated and call you annoying, but you loved it.

• And before you knew it, he started to be silent around you, even when you irritated him. And that drove you crazy, you even tried to talk to Yama, but all he said was for you to talk to Tsukki, and that's what you did. Talk.

• He was sitting in the stands when he felt your kiss, and he simply did nothing. But he was thankful that he was sitting at that time, because if it weren't for that, he would have fallen to the ground in shame. But of course, before he could say anything to you, you ended up running away because you thought you had ruined everything. Which made everyone on the team give him a dirty look.

• Yama just looked at him as he placed his hand on the blonde's shoulder, saying that he could talk to you tomorrow. Jesus Christ, he would go crazy if he had to wait until tomorrow.

NISHINOYA YUU

• You knew each other through Sugawara, you were suga's sister. And poor Nishinoya if he dared to touch you. And it's not that Suga didn't like Noya, but you can imagine how jealous a brother he is, right? Even more so when it comes to Nishinoya, who won't leave you alone (not that you complain).

• You found him funny, he always flirting with you, talking about how beautiful you are, and all these things. You liked the attention, and maybe you liked him a little too.

• But everything changed one day. He stopped all the flirting, and would only say hi to you at most. Of course it hurt you, but it's not like you would admit it. So we can say that you "moved on". You started flirting with a guy in your class. When Noya found out, he obviously complained sadly to Tanaka, while they were at practice. Which led Suga to overhear the conversation, and go after you (seriously Suga?).

• It was then, when your lovely brother took that poor boy away from you, that you understood what happened to Noya. You gave Suga a good scolding, but now you needed to go after Noya, he was more important. You found him at the school exit, he was a little down while Tanaka talk about something that you didn't care about. "HEY NOYA!" as soon as he turned around, his eyes widened. You were there in front of him, standing still and with red cheeks. But before he said anything, he felt a kiss on the cheek near his lips. "See you tomorrow" You smiled and left.

• He was in shock for a few seconds, before feeling Tanaka slap him on the back and tell him how he was a lady-killer. Meanwhile, Suga, Daichi and Asahi were leaving school and saw two weirdos jumping around and shouting about someone kissing one of them. Then they realized it was Tanaka and Noya.

TANAKA RYUNOSUKE

• You became a manager after Kiyoko and Yachi insisted a lot, and since you can't resist them, you accepted. And that's how you met Tanaka, after he almost "attacked" Kiyoko along with Noya. And it was obvious to everyone that in the beginning you did everything to keep Tanaka away from her. The first and second year students thought you liked Tanaka, that's why you pushed them away. And then he decided to confront you.

• So when he found out that you just wanted to protect Kiyoko from perverts (You thought Ryuu was a pervert, and he didn't understand why), he started to sympathize with you. At first it was a little strange, Idk maybe because he wasn't used to being around girls in a friendly way or maybe because you found this bald guy very suspicious.

• But over time you became great friends, it only took 3 months and a lot of persuasion from Kiyoko and the other third years to convince you that Ryuu was really cool. And of course in that time things changed for him too, he started to see you differently, Idk? In a cuter way? (what the hell does that mean?). Anyway, he went to ask for advice from the only person he knew who was good at it, Kiyoko. However, she just giggled and went to you who was talking excitedly with Yachi about some recent movie.

• One day when you were all walking home (Noya, Kiyoko, Ryuu and you) you stopped at a convenience store to buy popsicles, and Ryuu bought some for you and Kiyoko. And unconsciously, excited by your wonderful popsicle, you ended up giving Ryuu a long kiss on the cheek. But of course you didn't even notice, you just started chattering excitedly about something while pulling Kiyoko with you. She just laughed at how absent-minded you could be sometimes.

• Meanwhile, Noya was open-mouthed as he slapped Tanaka's arm. He kept talking about how lucky he was, and Tanaka took a good few minutes to come back to reality. He definitely didn't wash his face when he got home. And the next day he excitedly told about the kiss and about not having washed his face (Only Noya and Shoyo thought it was amazing that he hadn't washed his face).

BOKUTO KOUTARO

• You met this big owl through Akashi. He was helping you with a subject you were doing poorly in, so Bokuto showed up during one of your study sessions. Of course you became fast friends, how could not?

• Bokuto was quite loud, but that was one thing you loved about him. But one thing that drove you crazy was how he always touched you, even unconsciously. Arms on your shoulders, pulling you by the wrist, standing behind you while he taught you a little about volleyball. You thought you were going to die if it kept up like that.

• So for your own sanity, you decided to walk away. It wasn't your fault! What could you do if you almost had a heart attack every time you were near him? But it was obvious that regret hit you when Akashi looked for you, asking why you had disappeared. You didn't even have the chance to answer, before he threw it at you that Bokuto had been in emo mode for days, because of you. And that left you in shock, but the one who was most shocked was Akashi, who only saw you run towards the court while shouting apologies.

• As soon as you arrived at the court, you saw Bokuto, and how they tried to cheer him up, but it didn't work. As soon as you got closer, he looked at you with a pout on his lips, you found it adorable. "Sorry for staying away..." you saw that his pout only got bigger "Why did you just stop talking to me?" he said with a huge pout and his arms crossed. You just laugh0ed, approached him and placed a kiss on his cheek. "Sorry..."

• A sparkle appeared in Bokuto's eyes, while a wide smile took over his face. He was going to attack you with a hug so you would never run away again! But he was stopped by Akashi (who came from who knows where). And you had to sptay for the rest of the training, because every time Bokuto scored a point he wanted to look at you and tell you how amazing he was, and that that point was for you.

OIKAWA TOORU

• You were Iwa's sister, so he knew you very well. You tried your best to stay away from him, you didn't want his crazy fans to get on your back. And Iwa also told you to stay away from him because he was no good. But did Oikawa care? Of course not.

• He was always bothering you, calling you cute, sitting with you during meal break and stealing your food. This frustrated you, and it was definitely not because you liked him, never. It was because his fans were always bothering you, they just didn't do anything because you were Oikawa's best friend's sister. But they were always complaining in your ear. And you did everything to push him away, you asked Iwa, you cursed him, but Oikawa was stubborn.

• It was obvious (to everyone except you two and Iwa) that he was jealous of you. Especially when it came to Kageyama. He didn't understand what you saw in that guy ?? Tobio was so? annoying. Then one beautiful day, at the pre-national game, after he lost to Karasuno. He saw you congratulating Tobio and that short friend of his. He hated it, stomped away and (purposefully) bumped into you. You didn't understand anything, but you got a look from your brother that said "you messed things up, go fix it". Well, if he was thinking that, you had screwed up.

• You ended up finding him outside, kicking a can while saying some curses that you didn't understand. As soon as you got close to call him, he turned around almost shouting "what?". But as soon as he noticed you, he lowered his voice, although the frown was still on his face. "What do you want? Weren't you full of jokes with Tobio-chan? You can go back there!" No way. Was he jealous? All you could do was laugh, while the frown on his face only deepened, and he turned his face away. But time froze when he felt a kiss on his cheek. "Don't worry Tooru, you're still my favorite player..." you walked away with a giggle.

• He stood there for 15 minutes. Until Iwa appeared with a scowl he knew all too well. Holy shit, Iwa was going to kill him.

KUROO TETSURO

• Kuroo was known for his flirtatious nature. That's what he said at least. But what he forgot to say is that he only had the courage to flirt with his friends as a joke. But he never got close to a girl to actually flirt, especially one he liked.

• You weren't exactly friends with Kuroo, but rather with Yaku. But it's not like that stopped him from liking you, right? Or you from developing a small admiration for the tall boy who reminded you of a cat.

• It took a while before you two went from awkward silence to comfortable silence, and everyone thought it was ridiculous. Everyone knew about your crush on each other, so they decided to help you! By making you both clean the court! Yes, you became his manager at Yaku's insistence (You don't know why he insisted so much)

• Well, after tidying up the entire block, he decided he would walk you home. He might be a mess with girls, but he would never let you be in danger knowing that he could have done something. You were in a comfortable silence until you reached the door of your house. And when he was going to say goodbye, he felt your lips on his face. "Thank you for walking me Kuroo" You entered the house quickly, not giving him time to say anything.

• But while he was standing there in the middle of nowhere, trying to understand what happened. You were in your room screaming into your pillow while shaking your legs excitedly. Tomorrow would definitely be a fun day for you.

KENMA KOZUME

• You and him basically met online. Kuroo said it wasn't safe, but did Kenma listen? No. But Kuroo relaxed when he found out (he stalked you somehow) that you were in his class (Kuroo's class), and decided it would be a great idea for you two to be friends in real life.

• Of course it was a bit strange at first, he was much quieter in life than in the game. But you soon got used to it, and without Kuroo being able to predict it, you two played most of the time (he hates himself for not having thought of that). You were a great duo, you did well in any game together. But off screen you two were so... strange (Kuroo's words).

• So he had a great idea! Since it was your birthday, and you liked cats, he thought it would be a great idea to give you one! Of course, Kenma agreed with his face buried in his PSP. So as soon as they got to your house, he shoved the box with a cat in it in your face, saying it was Kenma's idea. He was a little prudish, because he thought that at least Kenma would give you the cat (that was his plan), but things turned out better than he imagined!

• As soon as you saw the cat, you gave a small scream. Thanking Kuroo with a half-hearted hug, but looking at Kenma, thinking about something. But as soon as he saw you place a kiss on Kenma's cheek, he thanked him nervously and went somewhere. He smiled and widened his eyes.

• Anyone looking at Kenma now would think he didn't care about his gesture. But Kuroo knew him better than anyone, he knew Kenma was dying of shame inside. Because if not, why else would the half-blond have died in a game he's one of the best at?

USHIJIMA WAKATOSHI

• You met him on one of his morning runs. You were running towards him for some reason early in the morning, which caused the two of you to bump into each other. You just apologized and ran away, but he didn't care, you didn't even know each other. But it kept happening. At school, you'd be in the hallway and out of nowhere he'd bump into you and knock you over, or the last time you were in the cafeteria and he bumped into you again, making the food spill all over yourself.

• After another disastrous encounter, and no apology from Ushijima, his friends "convinced" him to go apologize to you (Tendou kept saying it was fate). So he went to you - with that look on his face as if he had just killed someone - to apologize. From then on, you two began what you think is called friendship.

• Most of the time he was quiet, but it wasn't like he hated your company or anything. He much preferred listening to you than talking, and you talked a lot. And then, one wonderful day, your precious friends dared you to kiss him. They said that "if you really are his friend like you say, it won't be a problem." And you wanted to prove it. He wouldn't mind, would he? You were friends, after all.

• It didn't take long for you to find him, since he was already on the court as usual. You waited for practice to end, after all you didn't want to disturb him. But as soon as he saw you, he came over to you. Finally, you asked him to bend down (sorry tall people 😭), and placed a kiss on his cheek. He literally stared at you without any reaction, which made you die of embarrassment and run away (I mean, who can blame you?).

• On the way back, he asked Tendou what that meant. And the redhead just laughed and congratulated him (??). Anyway, the next day the redhead found out that your "friends" challenged you, because they didn't believe you were Ushijima's friend. And as soon as he told Ushi, he went to your friends and told them that they were stupid for calling you a liar (they were like, what the hell??). In the end, he likes you, even if it doesn't seem like it, he shows it in his own way.

MIYA ATSUMU

• Before anything else, you were only friends with Osamu. So much so that you referred to the blond as Miya, and you referred to the gray-haired one by his first name. According to Samu, you thought he was a womanizer. And very irritating, with an overblown ego (not that it isn't true).

• But since he is extremely stubborn and doesn't know how to respect personal space, he kept bothering you throughout the whole first year. Which of course irritated you, so Samu had you complaining on one side, saying how stupid the blond was, and his brother complaining on the other, saying how annoying and difficult you were. But from the second year on, when you had to do a project together, you realized that he wasn't so bad (he was still a womanizer, but he made great jokes).

• He started to get really clingy over time, which was really strange coming from him, considering he's not much of a touchy-feely guy (he needs to know someone for them to touch him 😮‍💨). And it's obvious that his brother noticed this, the only ones who were really oblivious to it were the two of you. He also started demanding that you go to his games, as well as practices. He always accompanied you home, and over time you started to leave Samu aside (💔 poor Samu).

• The day he lost to Karasuno, and you were heading home. You could see how discouraged he was, even though he could try next year, it was still discouraging. So as soon as you arrived in front of your house, you looked at him and called him softly, but loud enough for him to hear, since he turned to look at you. Then as soon as he felt your lips touch his, he froze. You ran inside and left him there, without a word.

• He was so lost in thought about what had just happened that he didn't even see Samu looking at him with a disgusted expression. But it's not like he'd care, right? You kissed him, and that's all that matters to him.

MIYA OSAMU

• Before you were friends with him, you were one of Atsumu's fans. Then, in one of the countless meetings that the blonde had with his fans, you met Samu. By bad luck (luck), he ended up going to the same restaurant as the two of you. The two of you had dinner separately from him, but ended up going home together. But in the end, you talked more to Osamu than to the blonde, your original date (which made the blonde a little irritated, but not enough for him to complain for more than a day).

• To his surprise, you were part of the cooking club. He should have guessed, since one of the times you gave Atsumu something to eat, Samu ate it. You ended up spending more time together, since besides having many classes together, you loved cooking. And so, since your birthday was coming up, he decided that he would make your favorite meal as a gift.

• As soon as he arrived at school, he saw you talking to one of your cooking teachers. But soon all your attention fell on him (Atsumu was with him before, but he got mad because Samu didn't prepare food for him too), you soon smiled, said goodbye to your teacher and ran to him. "Here, for your birthday" he handed you the lunch box, and your eyes automatically lit up when you saw what was inside "I can't believe it!! My favorite! Thank you Miya"

• "You know... I thank you every day for going to that meeting with your brother..." That sentence was like a knife in his heart, even more so when you were all nervous talking about his brother "if it weren't for that idiot... I would never have met you..." As soon as you said that, his eyes widened. Was he really hearing that? And then, he felt your lips touch his cheek "thank you Samu..." You spoke so quietly that it was almost impossible to hear.

• For a minute he froze, he was nervous wondering what he should do. But when he saw your worried face (the face you make when you think you've screwed up), he knew what to do. He cupped your cheeks, gave you a quick peck on the lips, and smiled. "Do you want to skip school? To celebrate your birthday?" And of course you agreed, it came as no surprise to anyone (maybe to Atsumu) when you started dating the next day.
