#toast post

[freshfrenchtoast]

Kageyama's backstory only being revealed near the very end of the series is really interesting from a meta perspective.

For reference, his chapter is 387 out of 402. That's 96% of the way in.

To contrast, other characters like Tsukishima and Yamaguchi's backstories are shown in Chapters 87-88.

Now, we do get the explanation for his "King of the Court" title in Chapter 6, at the start of the series, but we don't see how he got to that point, or why he started playing volleyball in the first place like Tsukishima's and Yamaguchi's stories show.

It creates this situation where, despite being the deuteragonist, the character our protagonist, Hinata, is practically glued to the entire series, we barely know anything about him.

We don't even know he has a sister until that point whereas other characters' siblings like Natsu, Saeko, Akiteru, Alisa have all made appearances way before then. Even Oikawa's sister, though we don't see her, we at least know she exists because of Takeru.

He's both closed off to us (the audience) as well as the other characters in the series, and this results in them finding him rude or disliking his character in general (see: the "Kageyama is abusive" discourse that somehow keeps popping up even now).

Chapter 387 takes place in 2018 and was published in 2020 so it takes him 6 years of in-universe time and 8 years of irl time to really open up.

And the catalyst for all of this is Hinata fulfilling his promise of beating him.

You see, another thing to note is that, whenever Hinata thinks of Kageyama, he's always looking at him from behind.

His internal image of him is someone who's always up ahead, someone he needs to catch up to, meaning Hinata can only see one side of him, he cannot see all of Kageyama until he catches up and passes him.

Which he finally does here.

In this shot Hinata is finally the one who's looking back at Kageyama. At this moment, Hinata (and by extension the audience) can see him for all he is, can see how he was just a lonely boy who's been waiting for someone to meet him where he is, to keep running alongside him and not quit the race.

Someone he doesn't have to go easy on. Someone who would actually tell him to hurry up instead of slow down for a change.

His someone better.

by popular demand here is the TOAST POST!

gerard is a homemade jam. sweet little berries that can be tart too. dedication and passion put into every jar. touch too long and your fingers come away stained like blood

ray is a beautiful poached egg. hearty and full of protein. delivers brilliant flavour without the need for fancy trimmings, but equally performs well with a wide range of ingredients. you can travel culinary continents with a poached egg

mikey is sliced bananas and honey. a little unusual for a toast topping but a universal pleaser. a sweet weekend treat you would make with your family. bonus points for making the banana slices into a face

frank is peanut butter. reliable and always sat waiting in your pantry ready to go. eat it straight out of the jar whilst stoned or crying. peanut butter understands.

[jacksoneblackburn]

hey jacks, its me hilal.

i, uh, may have slightly burnt myself baking biscuits.

help :')

OMGG ARE YOU OKAY???

(ooc: Sorry for the late replies and stuff, I was at my dad's house 😔)

Please don't put ice on it immediately, it could cause shock depending on how bad the burn is. Submerge it into warm water, and slowly progress to lower and lower temperatures. After that, don't cover it. Covering it is bad or something (idk, it's been a while since I had to deal with a burn).

Hope this helps!

-He does have a tumor on his testicle but it's benign and doesn't affect him in any way other than giving him an adorable waddle

-The vet diagnosed him as "a little gentleman"

-He is a verified tit muncher

When the banana hits just right
