#they scratch and itch in my brain that i just love

[halowishes]

january favs!

(first recs of the year!!!!)

ships: sakuatsu (if unspecified) ft. an oikage fic

six steps to a smile

e. 18.6k. 5+1 canon compliant.

5+1 of kiyoomi’s adorable pout leading to relationship milestones. i (unfortunately) can’t remember the last time i read a fic without even a little bit of angst. i feel like i never see friends to lovers skts! i do love tension but my heart swells at moments like “i’ll give you anything you want and you don’t even have to ask”. the sweetest boys ever.

the sakusa kiyoomi drunkness scale

m. 4.3k. canon established relationship.

atsumu meets six-drink kiyoomi. chaos ensues. such a lighthearted and short read about their relationship. i loved the little details of the characters and just how well they know each other. they’re so in love and it makes me sick (i treasure these guys).

shootin’ stars & satellites

e. 20.1k. third years skts.

itachiyama and inarizaki have a volleyball camp before their graduation!! this fic was a religious experience. i can’t describe how it made me feel. hilarious, beautifully written, sexy, gentle, and oh so tender. i honestly LOVE everything about this fic. expect this on my end of the year favs.

hold on, who’s got a boyfriend now? (yea right)

t. 9.3k. haikyu hospital.

resident cardiologist atsumu has a boyfriend! the rest of the hospital tries to find out who it is by creating a betting pool!!! this was extremely silly and light. i LIVE for gossip and i imagine hospital gossip is like the michelin star of work gossip. so (if i was there) you bet your ass i’d be betting!

daybreak

t. 8.1k. mid skip.

after a break up, kiyoomi decides to hike up mount fuji with surprise guest miya atsumu! i admire the idea of the u19 camp having a group chat and reunions together :’). also kiyoomi’s family running a tea business… it is so perfect for the rich kid hc. such a sweet and refreshing fic with some introspection!!

bane of my existence, object of my desires

e. 6.6k. regency era au.

messy skts who just can’t live without each other… you know i had to have it. in true skts fashion, this story was dramatic and chaotic and horny. but i mainly read this bc i loooove bridgerton so imagining them in their fancy suits and mansions scratched an itch in my brain.

high tides and sleepless nights

e. 71.8k. msby 4 go to the beach!

atsumu teaches kiyoomi how to swim so he can enjoy the beach <3 as someone who can’t swim, i find this plot so romantic. im gagged it took kiyoomi that long to realize the feelings between them were Real. but that just meant the ANGST was divine. (along with the characterization, dialogue, and happy ending). summer skts for the win!

go slowly with me

g. 5.6k. canon compliant slice of life.

ah yes, the joys and horrors of sharing your music taste with others. when the jackals bring a speaker to their post-practice cool downs, atsumu decided to curate an effortless playlist. along the way he learns kiyoomi listens to abba and that he wants to spend the rest of his life with him. tooth rotting fluff. dancing in the kitchen. they are domestic.

this is how you lose the time war

m. 15k. end of the world/ sci-fi au.

when kiyoomi wakes up on the last day before time loops itself, he somehow makes his way to his ex lover’s doorstep. god. i’m not ready to really think this one over (i lowkey read it in a haze), but it’s a wonder. this skts dynamic was intense, grand, and overpowering. snuzz is truly a wizard with her words.

such a constellation was he to me

e. 11.8k. canon universe.

two words: kiyoomi tattoos. two more words: body worship. truly, what more do you need? i love reading body worship because it just reminds me how special sex can be. it’s vulnerable and open and appreciating and so human. it’s nice to read a fic that highlights that. the tattoos & lore were just a bonus :P

ishigaki island, 2025 — oikage

e. 22.4k. forced proximity exes to lovers.

iwaizumi & ushijima wedding = oikage best men. only problem is they haven’t spoken in years since they broke up. and now they’re 4th wheeling on an island getaway with their best friends. i really loved this oikawa and characterizations, some classic tropes, and (more) sun!!!

Heyy, I wanted to ask you smth.

I wanna go to the military in my cr, but idk if I will be accepted (yes ofc I could manifest it BUUUUUUUT) so I wanted to do a COD dr, but both is with killing people I suppose. Yeah, its for the greater good but yk what I mean. Any help? or Ideas? or should I just delete those ideas? Love u xoxo

you wanna go all ooh-rah, military-industrial complex, hooah baby, semper fi in your cr but you’re worried about the ‘killing people’ part (valid). then you think: cod dr, because what’s better than reality......? a reality where you get xp points for headshots

so now you’re stuck in this moral limbo. like, do i drop the idea? do i lean in? am i a war criminal or just a girlboss with a rifle? i hear you. i see you. and the answer is simple. what do you want? what’s the end goal? do you wanna be a soldier because you love the discipline, the adrenaline, the structure? or is it a big fat existential itch and you just need something, anything, to scratch it?

if you’re spiralling about morality before shifting, that’s your brain in a tutu and a top hat doing a tap dance like, this ain't it. like. it’s giving… premature post-war trauma. soooo maybe just. i don’t know. shift into something that doesn’t make you wanna write a "dear god, forgive me" letter before you even get there?????

but also if you still want to, then do it. i’m not your mum. i’m just a girl on the internet typing like a chihuahua with a law degree xx

Keo any other time when we're going over important things together: "I need to translate this for you so you can understand it." Me: **Nods** Keo: "Want me to read this essay off for 8 mins in nothing but German for you?" Me: "SPEAK TO ME YOUR DARK WORDS WIZARD!"

{Context: @keo6232 knows how much I enjoy other languages even though I know nothing but English so they like to read stuff off or show me stuff in German/Austrian whenever they can.}

Ok so in all honesty I’m hoping the look Buck’s mom gave after seeing him and Tommy was nothing more than her old brain trying to understand and process what she was seeing…

I really hope if his parents mention Tommy anytime soon on the show the depth of angst is so shallow it doesn’t even faze Buck… maybe even surprises him a little that it goes so well. Because we don’t have much time left with Buck this season and even less with Tommy and I want it to be so happy and easy for them

however… HOWEVER

in fic format.

I am devouring the deep angst post coming out fics. I need more of them. I crave more of them😀

Because… there’s a because I’m not just sadistic ok. I need Bucks tribe to stand up to his parents for him. I need MADDIE to stand up to their parents for him. I need Chimney and Bobby and Hen and Eddie… I NEED CHRISSSS TO STAND UP TO THE BUCKLEY PARENTS FOR HIM…. I NEED THE NURSES AND- AND SOME RANDOM PATIENT DOWN THE HALL TO STAND UP FOR HIM

YALL *feral noises* I NEED TOMMY TO STAND UP TO MARGARET AND PHILIP BUCKLEY FOR THIS MAN!!!

I know there’s already quite a few out there… but I need more! I need all the fics of Buck’s people showing up for him!

Because his parents just were (are if you are petty like me and cannot forgive and forget) so terrible and they got let off so easy… so soooo easy! And it’s not fair!

And so I (ok maybe it is a little sadistically) want even more angst from them so it can be fixed with love from everyone else

Ya know?

OKAY i was just listening to @asleepyy's oopsie omens playlist, and i wanted to start on Running Up That Hill cuz of course i do. and i get to the chorus and im just doing my own thing

and then the lyrics slam into me with a delayed reaction of like 10 seconds

"if i only could, id make a deal with god, and i'd get him to swap our places"

brb gonna go CRY MY EYES OUT

i promise im being as normal as possible over this au and it is not working

WHY IS EPIC SO INCREDIBLE WHAT DID JORGE PUT IN THAT MUSIC

[writeraid]

Finally watched Werewolf By Night (which, yeah, I know, surprise surprise, local Moon Knight and Vampire loving girl only just now watched the werewolf special.) 10/10, peak Gothic horror vibes.

Tho I will say it's making me really want more MCU/MCU adjacent monster content

And also vampire content

But I always want vampire content so
