#you just need to understand and predict the verm algorithm

[vermillioncrown]

I am full on biting my nails atm — the anticipation is real! I am both dreading and excited for kuroko reaction, maybe I don’t fully understand kuroko as a character (it’s been a hot min since I watched the anime + read the manga), and it’s harder being that he’s shaped by the events in your fic… but I honestly see it going 2 ways!!

My prediction rn is that he either

1. He and Kagami have an intense falling out after the game - he goes full quiet before then before they finally fix it with a heart to heart a few angst scenes later (but tbh that doenst completely fit the vibe of the fic… sooooo 🤷🏼‍♀️)

2. Immediate argument then reasoning explained after game then = reconciliation and new disciple of BALL IS LIFE

3. He doesn’t get put out and coach disagrees with his call and Kagami explains himself later after it’s tense for a hot min

Bonus:

He decides after all this angst and friendship breaking apart he decides to quit basketball after his year with seirin… it sounds insane to me but honestly also there’s build up??? That you put!?? That actually fits?!! Idk I might just be insane don’t mind me

Anyway love your writing!! Your fics amazing and I can’t wait for the next chapter ❤️❤️❤️ hope you don’t mind my predictions I was thinking thoughts I felt an intense urge to share

Also idk if I’m comepltejy misreading this…. But it kind of seems like seirin could lose? Like they win in canon but w/out kuroko there …. Hmm

while i will not definitively confirm nor deny things...

i want to say those who are familiar with canon will be able to extrapolate what's happening. or at least, when ch 11 comes out they will find the events acceptable.

really working hard there with the predictions, i can respect it 🤭 you've covered a spectrum of mild- to nuclear-level of fallout and resolution lol

what i can say is a legal time out is 1 minute and 15 seconds, and by now, you know si!kagami and bil actually give a shit about the clock. and things will come to their conclusions, good or bad, within the next two chapters
