𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐤𝐲𝐮𝐮! 𝐚𝐬 𝐎𝐛𝐞𝐲 𝐦𝐞!༄

Hello my dear fellas, today I bring to you the crossover I think we all needed for this Halloween, Haikyuu! characters as Obey me! characters.

In case you don’t know, Obey me! (Also shortened to om) is a Japanese otome game (dating sim) where the MC is sent to the demon realm (also known as devildom) as an exchange student for a year. In the game you get to live with the Seven Brothers (each one representing a deadly sin) and y’know, date one of them lol.

But what if instead of demons we get cute volleyball players... let’s find out!

━━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐅𝐄𝐑 𝐀𝐒... Sakusa!

Alias: The Avatar of Pride.

❝ 𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑓𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑙𝑦 𝑓𝑙𝑎𝑤𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑚𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑠 𝑠𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡.

𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑚𝑖𝑔𝘩𝑡𝑦 𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑠𝑡-𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛.

☆彡 I don’t know about y’all but personally I can clearly see Sakusa as Lucifer. If you played the game then you know that Lucifer, being the oldest of the seven brothers, is the most collected and responsible one. Guiding the MC with advice and always knowing how to keep his brothers from causing any harm.

Many people strike Sakusa as straight up mean, personally I think he’s just reserved. He knows how to keep his cool, and even tho he’s not a crowd person, I think he’d play well the role of “leader”.

━━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

𝐌𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐎𝐍 𝐀𝐒... Oikawa!

Alias: The Avatar of Greed.

❝ 𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑑𝑦 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑡𝘩𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑦 𝑖𝑛 𝑡𝘩𝑒 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑.

𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑠𝑐𝑢𝑚𝑚𝑦 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑑-𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛.

☆彡 Mammon, one of the favorites within the players, I think. Annoying and self-centered as hell, but he’s not as bad as many people think. Like Oikawa, I feel like a lot of people might kinda hate him at first, probably due to their obnoxious personality and witty comments. But in reality they’re both a couple of sweethearts.

I personally don’t see Oikawa as a greedy person, however he has very clear goals and as we’ve seen, he’s willing to do everything he can to reach them, pushing his boundaries for something he loves. So I think he’ll fit the role pretty well.

━━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

𝐋𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐒... Kenma!

Alias: The Avatar of Envy.

❝ 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝘩𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑠 𝟸𝐷!

𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝘩𝑎𝑟𝑑𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑘𝑢 𝑡𝘩𝑖𝑟𝑑-𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛.

☆彡 Do I even need to explain this one?

Levi and Kenma are literally the same person and you cannot change my mind. Not only in their interests (both obsessed with games and geeky stuff), but also in personality. Their usual calm and soft spoken demeanor only broken by really specific situations. And yes, I know that Leviathan is more prone to have rage outbursts than Kenma, but we’ve seen Kenma get angry a couple of times (literally the last two episodes of haikyuu) and besides, he’s a gamer, so you can’t tell me that he doesn’t get angry when he plays games.

Anyways, this one is pretty self explanatory lol.

━━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

𝐒𝐀𝐓𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐒... Sugawara!

Alias: The Avatar of Wrath.

❝ 𝐴𝑙𝑙 𝑠𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑛𝑜𝑡𝘩𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑎𝑛 𝑎𝑐𝑡.

𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑐𝑦𝑛𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑙 𝑓𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑡𝘩-𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛.

☆彡 Again, do I even have to explain this one?

Even tho he’s the avatar of wrath, Satan is shown to be the most composed brother (except when it comes to Lucifer but for the sake of this crossover we’re gonna leave their feud aside), however that doesn’t mean he never gets angry, he’s still the avatar of wrath after all.

Suga is always shown as “the mom” of the group, very polite and calm when it comes to serious things. However we all know he has his volatile side, as seen during the Shiratorizawa match were he starts shouting at his own team. This is why I think he’s literally perfect for the role.

And I could go on about him as Satan honestly but I don’t wanna make this too long so let’s move on.

━━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

𝐀𝐒𝐌𝐎𝐃𝐄𝐔𝐒 𝐀𝐒... Terushima!

Alias: The Avatar of Lust.

❝ 𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 𝑎𝑑𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑠 𝑚𝑒!

𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑛𝑎𝑟𝑐𝑖𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑐 𝑓𝑖𝑓𝑡𝘩-𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛.

☆彡 Not gonna lie, I almost put Oikawa in this one too. Almost.

I’m a little conflicted with this one to be honest, the reason being that Asmodeus, even tho he’s the avatar of lust, it’s not your usual fuckboy. He’s more of a romantic seductive person, meanwhile Teru is literally just a fuckboy.

However, imagine the power Teru would have if he behaved at least an ounce like Asmo. Yeah, I’d love to see that.

So for the sake of that mental image (and the fact that Teru can pull hella bitches I’m telling you) we’re gonna give him the role <3

━━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐋𝐙𝐄𝐁𝐔𝐁 𝐀𝐒... Ushijima!

Alias: The Avatar of Gluttony.

❝ 𝑊𝘩𝑎𝑡 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑟?

𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑎𝑙𝑤𝑎𝑦𝑠-𝑓𝑎𝑚𝑖𝑠𝘩𝑒𝑑 𝑠𝑖𝑥𝑡𝘩-𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛.

☆彡 The way I struggled with this one. Anyways, before you say anything hear me out.

For this one I went more for the looks (clearly). Beelzebub is not only the tallest, but also surprisingly the most fit of all the brothers. Needless to say, our boy Toshi (who’s not the tallest but it’s still quite big) can fit into that role so easily.

Also, not only that, but their personality. Both really quiet guys except when it’s strictly necessary for them to speak, and literally the embodiment of no thoughts, head empty, like all the time (with the exception that they do think of something, but sadly it’s only one thing and that’s it).

Anyways, kinda doubting on this one for the gluttony part, but besides that, perfect match 10/10.

━━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐏𝐇𝐄𝐆𝐎𝐑 𝐀𝐒... Suna!

Alias: The Avatar of Sloth.

❝ 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝑡𝑜𝑜 𝑚𝑢𝑐𝘩 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑏𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑟𝑒𝑏𝑒𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑜𝑛?

𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑛𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑠𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡𝘩-𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛.

☆彡 And last but not least we have the avatar of sloth, Suna Rintarō.

Now I’m not gonna lie to y’all, I struggled with this one too, and I’m still not sure if I made the right choice. But since I’ve seen everybody saying that Suna is a lazy guy, I’m just gonna go with the flow and pretend this is a perfect match lol.

And not only because of that, but also because I can clearly see Suna being the type of person to fall asleep literally everywhere. Which is a common thing they have with Belphie 🥺

But yeah anyways, kinda see it, kinda not. You’re free to disagree with me on this one lol.

And there it is! Haikyuu as Obey me characters. Hope you enjoyed and let me know if you want a part two! (Including the side characters like Diavolo, Solomon, etc).

[akakeiiji]

Can i request a terushima please? Like any scenario you want or hc if you like bb boi needs to be noticed too ᕕ( ཀ ʖ̯ ཀ)ᕗ

YES TERUSHIMA IS BEST BOI

these are pretty long for an hc night, i just love him so much this looks more like an official post than an hc night one lmaoo

-`,✎ Terushima Yuuji Relationship HCs

First of all, he was a professional fuckboy 

Commitment? Who is she? Terushima didn’t have a clue either

He was talking to a new person every other week, with his good looks and brains, it wasn’t hard to get their attention

But once he met you, he turned from fuckboy to simp in a matter of seconds

He couldn’t even so much as look at other people after meeting you 

All he wanted was you and he was absolutely sure about it 

It took a while to get you to trust him, more so actually date him, you knew his reputation and you didn’t want to be another notch on his bedpost 

But he was incessant and to be frank, desperate to prove that his feelings for you were real, you had no choice but to listen

Then of course you fell for him, I mean how could you not?

Once you started dating, he was literally on cloud 9 for like a whole month, he was just so happy to be with you 

He’d always visit you in your classroom during lunch, with your favorite snack from the vending machine in his hands and you two would eat together at the rooftop 

All the Teru fangirls they exist fight me are out to get you but that’s irrelevant

He’s surprisingly super super sweet and thoughtful

For someone who consistently forgets about exams and homeworks yet is still a top student, the audacity, he surprisingly has pretty good memory when it comes to you 

You mentions something off-handedly once, it can be about your allergy or favorite fruit, he will automatically store that in his long term memory and will remember it months later

Yet he’ll forget to eat breakfast sometimes

But don’t forget that this boy is one of the smartest people in Haikyuu

But he’s the type of person that doesn’t really put that much effort into his studies, he’s just really really smart which is so unfair

He doesn’t study much but whenever you do, he will join you and usually spend most of his time helping you out with your own work than focusing on his own

HE IS THE KING OF PDA

If you aren’t comfortable with it then he will try his best to restrain himself but boi, he just wants everyone to know how blessed he was to be dating this majestic creature that is yourself (those were his words not mine)

If you’re okay with PDA then he will not be able to keep his hands off of you, he’ll always have an arm wrapped around your waist or draped around your shoulder

OKAY BUT TERUSHIMA IS ONE OF THE BEST KISSERS EVER

HAVE YOU SEEN HIS TONGUE PIERCING?? EXCUSE ME???

He’s super territorial

Not that he doesn’t trust you, he knows he can but he just doesn’t like it when other guys try making a move on you 

He will be by your side in seconds when he sees someone hitting on you, his arm protectively around you

“Back off, bud.” 

“Terushima, this is my cousin.”

“Oh.”

Please cheer him on during his games, he will be the giddiest boy in the world if you do 

Just knowing that you’re in the stands cheering him on has him more hyper and energetic than usual which is saying something

ALSO PLEASE WEAR HIS CLOTHES, HE WILL INTERNALLY COMBUST AT THE SIGHT OF YOU WEARING HIS SHIRTS OR JACKETS

A/N: This is part of the @babythotshq Angstvember collab! Hope you enjoy!

Song: Lie to Me by Tate McRae ft. Ali Gatie

You don't understand/ I'm not ever like this I can hold my breath/ Say I'll be alright But kinda hard to think/ When I can't feel a thing

Terushima didn’t have a reason to not trust you, until you gave him one. Until he went to your favorite café in hopes to surprise you while you studied for an upcoming exam, only to find you on what looked more like a date than a study session. Textbooks and notebooks closed, no pens or highlighters on the table; instead he just saw some other guy had brushed a piece of hair from your face before you tried to hide your face in the coffee mug you brought up to your lips.

Tell me to my face/ Already heard it last week Driving me insane/ It's hitting real badly Tell me what's her name, yeah

He didn’t know how to bring it up, how to casually ask why his partner had been on a date with someone else? Did he just say it, between sips of drink at dinner: “My day was great, saw you on a date a few days ago what’s that about, how were classes?” It wasn’t like he didn’t already know who it was, his face was burnt into Teru’s memory and after scrolling through your social media he found him. He was just some guy in one of your classes, he thought maybe you had mentioned him before, but he couldn’t recall. He tried to convince himself that you had told him this guy would be there with you, he didn’t want to think the love of his life could do this to him, but he knew he wasn’t fooling himself.

Said you'd never, why'd you ever Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me

When he finally did bring it up, you didn’t take the accusation well at all and he couldn’t help but think that you were trying a little too hard to convince him you hadn’t, that maybe you were just trying to convince yourself. The two of you spent days arguing, arguments just bleeding into the next day, like a chess game that had been adjourned. He hated it, the feeling of everything shattering, just waiting for the other shoe to drop at any moment, he didn’t want to fight, he just wanted to know how to fix it.

After everything we've been through you come crying to me/ You said you'd never lie, so why you lying to me? I gave you my trust my heart and everything inside of me/ Tell me how'd you pay me back? You made a fool out of me

Your arguments had started out telling him that you had been alone, that he simply must have been looking at the wrong table; that you’d have texted him if the plans changed. Half way through the argument you changed your tune, saying that he was a friend that joined you to study, that you were struggling with the subject and simply accepted his offer to help when he just happened to show up at the café. Teru just stood there wondering when exactly you thought he became stupid, that he couldn’t see the holes you left in each variation of the story you tried to feed to him. It seemed the longer you both fought, the more your story changed, the more aggressive you got and you began making low blows. You began to attack his appearance, claiming dating a ‘fuckboy’ was a lot for you to try to handle and claiming you’d dealt with hearing tons of rumors that he was off flirting with someone else.

He felt hurt that you’d even bring that up, you’d known each other since you were children, grew up together, had been dating for three years now since you started dating your third year of high school. The way he looked was never an issue before, you said you liked it. As for the rumors, he couldn’t help what people made up and you knew as well as he did they were baseless. He would never do anything to jeopardize your relationship and for the last three years he believed that you knew that.

Can't you see what you're doing? Left me, broken in pieces Got me feeling so stupid, guess I needed a reason To let go/ I don't wanna hear lies anymore

“You’re just gonna leave then?” You crossed your arms, irritation written on your face as Teru grabbed the bag by his feet.

It had been a week of one continuous argument, of talking in circles, of getting no where, no closer to a solution than they were when he first brought it up. He told you that if his looks were really such a hassle, if dating him was so awful then maybe you should just break up, hoping you’d say he was being dramatic. You didn’t, you simply said ‘maybe we should.’ That was last night and this morning he made a few calls, packed his bags and was getting ready to leave.

“If dating me is so stressful that you need to go on dates with other guys, there’s nothing left for us here.”

“I told you it wasn’t a date, Yuuji!” You repeated for the millionth time that week, even though the more you said it, the less you were convinced you had been telling the truth. You knew you weren’t telling the truth, but you weren’t sure how things would work out with the other guy and didn’t wanna risk things with Terushima ending for nothing. What good that did.

“Y/N, please, aren’t you tired of lying?” He didn’t wait for you to answer, for you to once again tell him something he clearly knew was false, he slung the backpack on his shoulder and turned to walk out the door.

You tried to come up with a rebuttal, a string of broken words leaving you as you fumbled over what to say before he stopped, halfway out the door and turned to you. When his eyes met yours, you knew the broken façade you had been trying to keep up had finally given in and shattered and you knew that he knew. He gave you a straight lipped smile along with a short nod before he left, shutting the door on you and your relationship.

6 months later

I've been tryna collect all my thoughts It's all said and done Just don't feel the same

You were sitting in the new coffee shop that had opened on campus, textbook opened but your thoughts were everywhere but on your assignment. It was a bit louder than your favorite café in town, but you knew Terushima was avoiding that one and changes were he’d eventually come in to this one. Three months into your new relationship, the flames fizzled out, realizing that there wasn’t really anything deeper than a physical connection with him.

You had used the last three months to really think things out, finally seeing that Terushima was the best thing to ever enter your life since you were eight. When you went home for a weekend visit, you managed to find your childhood photo album, it was mostly filled with pictures of you and Teru, the last picture being of high school graduation. Seeing all those memories made you realize that you wanted him back, needed him back, that your life wasn’t as bright with the blonde-haired boy in your life.

You felt luck was on your side when the sight of spiky blonde hair captured your attention and your head jerked around just in time to see Terushima himself walk into the café. You looked up at the ceiling, mouthing a ‘thank you’ to fate itself before standing up, quickly packing your backpack just before he walked out the door.

Don't try to tell me that I was wrong You was the one lying all along I think you just want somebody else to take the blame

Terushima wasn’t a huge coffee person, but the late-night cram session the night before left him more tired than usual. He rocked on the ball of his feet, trying to stay awake as he stood in line, hoping this coffee would do the trick and wake him up.

He was already a few steps down the sidewalk when he heard his name, but not just his name, his given name and there was only one person on campus that called him that. Teru knew when he turned around that it would be you, he was just really hoping one of sisters was in for a surprise visit. He bit the inside of his cheek when he saw you standing there, looking a little lost.

“Y/N.”

“How have you been?”

He cleared his throat, he didn’t want to do this, while you might’ve moved on he was still hurting. “Fine, just been really busy. Speaking of, I really should go.”

You reached out, grabbing his arm when he started to walk off. “Wait, Yuuji. Can we--?”

You’re interrupted when some girl runs up and threw her arms around him, smiling at him with the same doe-eyed look you looked at him with.

Terushima draped his arm over the girl’s shoulder, it was Takara the volleyball manager and someone who Terushima was close to in a very platonic way. But judging by the look on your face, he didn’t think you saw it that way. A knot developed in his stomach, almost the same way it did when he saw you with that other guy, but this was different. You two weren’t dating, he wasn’t cheating, he wasn’t hiding it, but it still felt wrong because the look on your face was breaking his heart.

He wanted to tell you that it wasn’t what you thought, that she was just a friend, that she had a girlfriend on the girls’ volleyball team which was what got her into being the boys’ team manager, but he couldn’t. Takara spoke up before he could.

“We really need to get going, Teru!”

He nodded, looking back to you, asking you what you were going to say but you just shook your head, waving him off, telling him it was nothing important. He watched you as you quickly turned around, tripping over the sidewalk as you rushed away from him and Takara. He let out a deep sigh, shaking his own head as he started walking towards the gym.

“You know, she probably thinks we’re dating.” Takara said, looping her arm with his.

When the two of you had broken up, Takara was the one who let him crash with her while he worked out housing, she’d make an extra bento for him even when he moved out, but most importantly she had been a shoulder to cry on when he couldn’t sleep. Takara had often joked that he was the brother she never had which he quickly told her two sisters were enough for him.

He shrugged, telling her that yeah you probably did which she simply asked if that was something he was okay with since he didn’t try to say anything to contradict it. He wasn’t completely sure how he felt about it, he was the one who walked out that night, and that pain was still fresh for him, he didn’t have replacement lined up like you did.

“I thought you were the team manager, not the team psychologist.” He joked, the both of them walking into the gym for practice.

She rolled her eyes, “But honestly, are you okay with that?”

“What’s one more lie?”

Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me, yeah Why you gotta lie to me

submission:

@msbyslut: “cloud here for a hq boy matchup! ☁️ i'm around 5'8, have dark hair and blue greenish eyes. my favorite color is pink! my aesthetic is anything soft and i love sanrio. 🥺 outside of writing as a hobby, i draw and paint! i also love traveling. i look for security but i get bored easily, so i tend to gravitate towards people who are passionate and a bit spontaneous. anyone who i can joke around with and keeps me laughing for hours. oh and happy 100 tum bby! you deserve it all. 💗”

notes: hi honeybun, thank you so much for your support ❥ i’m very grateful to have you and your wonderful brain as a mutual, you’re literally the sweetest person and you sound like an adorable little cinnamon roll. i hope you like your discount atsumu matchup! muah! ❥

why i matched you:

» okay, we all know terushima can come off as a bit of a fuckboy (*coughkiyokoscenecough*) BUT we did see how he acts on the court - this boy is just a big bundle of energy who wants to have fun! i firmly believe he uses that ‘ladies man’ act to hide just how much a dork he is. but, once he realizes you actually want to stick around, you’ll see firsthand just how much of a goofball he really is, and beneath that suave facade is a good guy who wants nothing more than to give his heart to someone who’ll take care of it. and that’s where you come in!

» terushima loves your creativity and how easy it is for you to express yourself through whatever art platform you use. he’ll beg you to let him read your writing, get a sneak peak at your latest sketch, ‘paint him like one of your french girls’, etc. he just wants to support you! he’s a firm believer in self expression and knows it’s a huge confidence booster when someone shows intrugue in whatever he’s doing, so he’s going to do whatever he can to make sure you know he’s genuinely interested in everything you do.

» baby, you’re almost too soft for this boy. he swears if you were any cuter you would be the death of him, but would he want to go any other way? absolutely not. he finds your love of all things pink and cutesy incredibly adorable. so much so that he can’t help but buy things that remind him of you when he comes across them, or even if you show the slightest bit of interest in them. that cute little gudetama pillow you saw online the other day? he’s got it ordered, it’ll be here friday. that set of kuromi and melody socks he saw in a store window at the mall? he swooped in and got ‘em for you. boy will spoil you to no end because he just wants to see your cute lil’ face light up when he gives you those gifts!

» teru is more than willing to drop everything and go anywhere you want, at any time at all. he also shares your wanderlust and eventually wants to see the world, whether it be watching the sun set over the glittering waters of italy’s canals or watching it rise above the mountains of peru, he’s gonna do whatever he can to make sure you’re by his side to share those experiences. because what better way to take in all the world has to offer than to do it with the one you love?

» like i said before, terushima often presents himself as a bit of a womanizer before pursuing any type of relationship, but once he finds someone he can actually see himself giving his time to? you’re stuck with him. boy will NOT leave your side unless you explicitly told him you never wanted to see him again. he’s going to be hesitant at first, but when he finally opens up, he truly bares his heart and gives you full consent to hold it within the palm of your hand. he’ll only get to that point when he knows without a shadow of a doubt he trusts you, and that you trust him. so as far as security goes? terushima’s got you covered.

» and again, teru’s a HUGE dork. like he almost rivals kuroo on this one because he craves entertainment 24/7, and never fails to make those around him giddy with laughter or anticipation of what’ll come out of his mouth next. he’s serious when he needs to be, but when it’s just the two of you alone, he’ll have you constantly gripping your sides in laughter, and you’re certain to get a good ab workout every time because he’s never not doing something that’ll make you giggle to the point of wheezing. sometimes he feels like he’s too much of a silly hooligan but you’re always the first to remind him that’s what you love about him the most. terushima is definitely one to keep you on your toes, so i hope you’re ready for that challenge!

drabble:

“Yuuji, what’s all this?” Your hand slides off the handle on your front door, eyes wide and skimming across your living room to take in the scene before you.

“Sh-Shit! Uh… Surprise?”

You were aware your boyfriend would be home before you, but what you didn’t expect was to walk into a cheesy, teenage romance movie.

Terushima was sheepishly rubbing the back of his head with a throw pillow in his other hand, casually tossing it onto the sofa already smothered in pillows and blankets that weren’t there before. The coffee table was piled high with an array of snacks ranging from your favorite baked goods to a partly opened box of pizza, and a tin bucket filled to the brim with ice and canned drinks sat flush against one of the table’s legs. The entire living area was bathed in a soft glow from fairy lights strung up haphazardly across the walls and the smell of strawberries and cream wafted in the air from the scented candles resting on the end tables beside the couch. It was all so much, and it made your heart melt just thinking about how much time and effort this must’ve taken your lover to set up.

“Baby, I-...” Your eyes finally return to Terushima’s nervous gaze and you instinctively bring a hand to cover your mouth, tears gathering below your lash line. The second he saw the familiar twitch of your furrowing brow he nearly leapt over the coffee table to reach you.

“Hey, heyheyhey, I can clean it all up, I promise I didn’t mean to make such a big mess. And I can take the lights down if you don’t like the-“ Teru panics when he catches your tears slipping down your cheeks, but you’re quick to cut him off with a quick, sweet kiss before he completely loses it. You wrap your arms around his neck and bury your nose into the space below his jaw, while his hands find purchase against your hips, pulling you impossibly closer to fully indulge in the sudden affection.

“Yuuji, I love it… how did you-...?” You pull back after a moment, hands rising to his neck and thumbing the curve of his jawline. You lose the sentence halfway through, the surprise finally settling in leaving you at a loss for words.

Your boyfriend smiles, nuzzling your temple with the top of his nose in relief, “You told me earlier how bad work was stressing you out, so I took the rest of the day off and put together a little movie night for you. I wanted you to be able to relax when you got home.” His lips leave a chaste kiss to your cheekbone, “I, uh-... just wasn’t expecting you to get here so soon.”

You giggle at his remark - of course the one day you manage to leave early you walk in on his surprise. But as you take another long look at the dreamy layout around you, you couldn’t help but be glad you got here when you did. You didn’t realize you needed this until it was right here in front of you. Now all that was left was to enjoy it.

“Thank you… It’s perfect.”

Too engrossed in your gift, you don’t seem to catch the loving look Terushima was casting down at you, smile growing wider as his response leaves his lips.

“Yea… it really is.”

matchups are CLOSED! thank you to those who entered or have been keeping up with this event! remember you can check to see updates on matchups + if your matchup has been posted via the #tumplaysmatchmaker tag!

i swear this isnt hate just some criticism

dont get me wrong i really love jshk but i wish there was more... character development wise?

like okay nene’s whole thing is her self image issues, falling for pretty fuckboys etc but it’s always played off like a joke, it’s never really confronted seriously. plot-wise she plays an important role in destroying the yorishiros but like?? the power hasnt been explained yet. she doesnt really have any control in the plot, she just kinda does the thing without understanding it herself. the little mermaid arc is great because it’s a challenge for nene to see if she would stand by hanako, or take the easy way out. but i think it was weakened by the fact that 1. lets be real, living as a fish with a bunch of handsome fishes was never an actually appealing option, it was played for the funneys and 2. hanako ended up swooping in and making the choice for her. i know she would’ve wanted to stay anyway but it would have been more meaningful for her to choose it herself

kou, he plays the role of the exorcist but he’s canonically established to be too weak to exorcise... like... pretty much anything, sealed staff or not. he makes it up with... spirit? idk man he says a lot of stuff but doesnt have any real power to back it up. like hell, he’s even been called out on this twice in-story. his thing is being overshadowed by his older brother, but despite rebelling in the young exorcist arc he doesnt actually overcome teru in any way, he’s still as weak as before, the arc basically ends with teru going soft on him and relenting.

another thing that’s frustrating is the lack of communication between characters. i understand that hanako doesnt want to open up about his past yet, and from a storytelling pov the authors are saving it for later. but in-universe there are just so many established sources of information that it doesnt make sense for nene/kou to be so complacent in knowing nothing. a gruesome child murder from a few decades ago shouldn’t be that hard to look up, newspapers exist, locals who still remember are still alive. tsuchigomori canonically Knows Everything but isnt speaking. kou’s briefly mentioned grandma has got to know something, not to mention his whole esteemed exorcist family. like, kid, you have the connections, you should know more than that.

and then there’s teru who is powerful and supposedly protecting the students but has yet to do anything except... be intimidating? he holds the view that all supernaturals are bad and doesnt understand how the supernaturals in the school work to protect the students, which is just really stupid, you have the same goal, work! together! he doesnt seem to know about or be going after the broadcasting gang, the antagonists. actually at this point our main characters all know about tsukasa's shenanigans but no one’s going after him, there’s no plans being formulated, they’re just letting him do his thing.

now i know the story still has a long way to go but it’s been quite a few chapters and so far it just feels like the main characters have too little power to actively control the plot, and are also complacent in being reactive instead of taking the initiative.
