what if one of us had dark hair and had trouble expressing our emotions and frowns about while the other one has lighter hair and trouble expressing their emotions and smiles about it.

Well, what occupied your mind in 2013?

Also, do you even know how nice it feels to draw a decade+ old ship you have in a way you WANT and actually kinda ACHIEVE THAT. Last time I drew them was like, legit 10 years ago and my mid teens self would be so damn proud of me now.

What's Going On In That Head Of Yours?

TW: just your boyfriend thinking about you (in the most unholy way possible)

He doesn't usually have unholy thoughts, but he is only human; especially when you do something that triggers that train of thought.

When he's busy during a game, his head is barely thinking about anything else. Except you of course. When he sat down next to you to take a water break, he noticed how you had your hair up; the summer heat getting too extreme to handle. He lets his eyes scan your figure, noticing how you had slumped over the table; face squishing against the plastic surface as you groan about how hot it was. It's when he offers you a sip of his drink when he realises how dangerous you were.

The temperature causing beads of sweat to slowly drip down your face, cheeks flushed red and your hair slightly sticking to them. Your smooshed lips having the slight shimmer on them from your lip gloss just made it so much more kissable. It's tempting. You had tied your shirt with a knot, exposing you belly he loved so much. Those shorts weren't helping either; your sitting position showing off how nice and exposed they were to his bites.

He could be another reason why you're in that position, pressing your head down while making both of you feel good. He'd make sure you'd sing with the way he would treat you.

He nearly chokes on his water when you ask him something and he just realised he was thinking of pounding you in the middle of practice. He tries to compose himself but realises a new problem; his lil buddy downstairs got a bit too excited. Let's just hope it goes away in time before he needs to practice again.

haruka nanase will always be the funniest sports anime protagonist in my eyes bc the crux of the show and the driving force of the cast is his magical autism. his connection to water is literally just his stim. in the show haru never gives a reason for his love of water beyond “i like how it feels”

he doesnt even give a shit about the actual sport and only chooses to give a shit bc of his separate love for his 17 boyfriends. and those 17 boyfriends will fight to the ends of the earth to explain why haru’s swimming will bring world peace end world hunger and it makes everybody horny immediately

rin matsuoka who has had ambitions to be an olynpic swimmer since before he knew his ABCs literally saw some kid stimming and without knowing anything abt him first was like “omg that guys going to be my consort at tje top of the world” and haru responds with “i hope your bike falls into the river with you in it”

Autistic Anime Boys Finale

Poll Propaganda:

Haru -

"I mean, obviously he's the autistic boy obsessed with water and everyone knows that, but his whole character arc pretty much stems from this quote he says at the start of the show: "There's an old saying my late grandma taught me. When you're ten, they call you a prodigy. When you're fifteen, they call you a genius. Once you hit twenty, you're just an ordinary person." And if that doesn't scream autistic kid being singled out at a young age and then panicking about not knowing how to deal with the expectations of being older, then I don't know what does.

… But also, yes, he's the water guy. They had to stop him from climbing into a fish tank in a shop one time."

Laios -

"He is the most autistic man ever! He’s obsessed with monsters and eating them (his special interest). He’s not the best when it comes to understanding social cues or people’s feeling toward him. Like one guy fucking hates him and only tries to get along with Laios because he is in love with his sister. Laios thinks that they are friends."

Rinharu Week - Day 10: The Final Stroke 2 (Blue)

I don't feel.. like I can't breathe... You can swim like yourself, Haru. Yeah. Sorry... For saying those mean things. No, I've always said selfish things to you, too, since we were kids. Sorry. You taught me what was important. I appreciate it. Idiot. I'm the one who always wanted to be like you. Don't keep making me say it.
