#best asanoya possible and you know it

[thefourthwifeoftengenuzui]

I saw that your requests were open so I was wondering if you could do Asahi x reader? Maybe relationship headcannons? You can have creative liberty with everything else though.

Thank you ^^

ofc Anon, happy to help ya out! This is my first time writing for Asahi, but honestly it should be pretty easy, because I’m an asahi Kinnie. Love y’all sm, if you liked this, make sure to like, follow, and if you curios, just ask

warnings: Swearing, crack, fluff? Mentions of vagina? Has one section implying a AFAB reader, but is only one paragraph. If you aren’t a pussy owner, pretend it’s a papercut it literally the same results. I tried to make it as gender neutral as possible.

status: edited, but at like 3am so read at your own risk

💜Asahi Azumane💜

💜Boyfriend Headcannons💜

First things first, Man is so freaking shy. Like goodness, he wouldn’t be able to talk to you when he has a crush on you. So, if you want results, you have to A) Be confident, and B) be in a place he’s comfortable interacting in. Like at volleyball practice (Gia- Joden shut your ass up, your AsaNoya is showing.) So, for this let’s just imagine you’re a second year, helping Kiyoko manage the team. Yeah that sounds a lil familiar but shhhhhhhhh, let me have this.

Once we get over the hurdle of him actually asking you out (AKA Tanaka bullying him into doing with some, if you don’t do it, I will,) Be gotta be the biggest sweetie ever. Like I’m used to writing for assholes, but I physically cannot with this man, this pure sweet chipotle bowl of a man. The most shit I can say is that he’s a pussy.

Please. For the love of God (Gia- You called?) Play with his hair. He will literally melt like butter into a blushy slushy mess it’s so freaking adorable.

The literal epitome of pit bull energy. Like so freaking terrifying on the outside but inside? Literally the softest thing since Japanese pancakes. And because of this, mfs be terrified to talk to you. Like even if he’s so polite, things don’t change. What he says- “Hi, I’m sure you didn’t know, but that’s my partner , and it looks like you’re making them very uncomfortable, could you please leave them alone.? Thank you! 🌸☺️🌸” What people hear- “Aye yo, what ya doing with my girl buddy? You tryna start something, I’ll fucking kick your ass *insert Tanaka face*”. Yeah, it’s a common occurrence for people to tell you to blink twice if you need help.

Even though he’s canonically not planning on going to college, he’s still above average in school work. Not really in terms of analysis and problem solving, so his best subjects are stuff he can just memorize like science or History. If you happen to be weak in either of those, he would be more than happy to help after practice or during weekends. He’s super patient with you and often suggests snack breaks and other things whenever it gets to much. (Because of that he’s also really good at helping you through panic attacks, more on that if I do a part 2.)

In terms of cringe, the cringiest thing y’all do would be like seriously basic couples costumes. And I ain’t talking joker and Harley Quinn type bs (that fr can be cute sometimes,) I’m talking moth and lamp type shit. I know it’s probably adorable to some of yall but it gives me the serious ick.

Speaking of the Ick, man uses the most horrendous nicknames unironocally. He doesn’t do it all the time (especially after Tanaka nearly pissed himself after hearing him trying to be tender.) like I can just hear him saying, “Hey muffin, can you grab my bag from the club room? I have to help clean up.” (Gia- joden ewwwwww stop it that’s literally so gross.)

reads you the Bible

Yall know that one comic where it’s like killer croc and his girlfriend walking around and she tells him how much she loves him and how safe he makes her feel? Yeah that’s literally yall and it’s so precious. Like just imagine walking anywhere and everywhere holding pinkies (my gay lol heart is melting) while he’s just being a blushy mess.

Noya is the main wingman, but still doesn’t know on how how you got together. His idea of friendly advice is, “QUICK BEING W PUSS AND ASK THEM OUT LIKE A MAN ASAHI😤.”

Regardless of if you are a titty owner or not, please don’t take your shirt off around him, he will literally malfunction.He will literally have an aneurysm. Like mans nosebleeds will rock him like a rocket. Like man will be in the morgue from blood loss. And we still need this man for cuddles, so no. Kill the spike not your boyfriend, can i get an amen 🙏?

He is the most precious fluffy boyfriend possible. Like he’s the sweetest of all beans. Like you could ask him to murder someone and he’lll just be like, “Yes Sweetie anything you say dear 🌸🥰🌸.” Kinda like Gojo in that one jjk scene (the I’ll murder you one)

he loves restaurant dates, but like don’t take him anywhere who only has spicy food. I love this man with all my might, but he is a serious pussy. Like my goodness has the gracious. And he won’t even say anything about it. My poor baby will just suffer in silence. So please don’t, he’s a poor baby.

This one’s for all my long hair honeys. One word. Hairties. Hairties Galore. He never has enough. And he always has them at the ready. But on the unlikely chance he doesn’t, he has no problem using your scrunchies during a game, and it’s seriously the softest marshmallow man move ever. I can not emphasize it enough.

ok this man if the favorite of all of his younger cousins. Like the little dudes love just climbing on them. He physically cannot say no to them. So, what’s something they force him to do? Watch Disney princess movies with them. He knows all their names trust. His top three definitely Jasmine, Belle and Cinderella, trust me on this.(Gia- fuck sukuna, Asahi x Cinderella for life lol) He gives the most insane Disney adult energy it’s insane. (Gia- joden, chill with the slander mate).

He is a living random fact generator. No I will not elaborate. He watches that kind of YouTube shorts. He’s so boring I swear to fuck.

(I had to Make Gia write this lol) This one is for all my pussy people. He gotta be the most worried individual on this side of the nuthouse whenever you’re bleeding. Like the second he hears your on the cycle it’s, “OMG ARE YOU OK, ARE YOU DYING? OMG MY GIRLFRIENDS DYING, HELP WE NEED TO GET YOU TO THE DOCTORS! PLEASE DONT DIE ON ME BABY! DO YOU NEED PADS, HEATING PADS, IBUPROFEN, CHOCOLATE!?ILL GET YOU THAT, THE VERY BEST BEST QUALITY-” please shut him tf up. He’s gonna have a panic attack, please calm him down,

for us non pussy personas, just imagine you got a paper-cut. He literally acts the same way.

For my final big thing, ima just give ya’ll little addicts exactly what yall came here for: Crack. (Also yes a changed some lyrics, I ain’t about to whitewash no characters)

[goodboydummy]

My headcanons and rankings for how Haikyuu characters (and couples) fuck (as adults):

Hinata and Kageyama: they are both really bad at sex. Like just terrible. Clumsy, uncoordinated, weirdly competitive in bed? But it’s okay because they’re equally terrible so it doesn’t bother them lmao. 2/10

Nishinoya: one word- STAMINA. This boy will not quit. He is the energizer bunny. Before you realize what’s happening the entire day has gone by and you’re exhausted but guess what? He’s still ready to go. 7/10

Asahi: well, he’s big, isn’t he? He’s a big boy. Don’t think I need to say much else. LARGE. 8/10

AsaNoya: generally very tender. They have sex a lot, but not really kinky weird sex. Nishi likes to try and get Asahi riled up so he’ll maybe fuck a little more rough and wild, but it doesn’t always work. I feel like Nishinoya would want Asahi to try dirty talk but Asahi would try and still wind up saying soft shit like “you’re so beautiful” and Nishinoya just kind of laughs it off and enjoys it anyway. 9/10 sickeningly sweet

Sugawara: the kind who makes you laugh during sex. He’s sweet and charming and thoughtful. Its really easy and comfortable with him. No awkward moments, just fun! 7.5/10

Daichi: the best sex you’ve ever had. Out of this world. You feel like a changed person after being with this man and you can’t explain it, because he seems so vanilla and normal? But he’s a stallion, bursting with confidence and charisma and just raw natural fuck talent. Unbelievable. 100000000000/10 amazing

DaiSuga: you know those parents who’ve been together for years but are still way too into each other and like, pinch each other’s butts and stare at each other like there’s no one in the room but them? That’s Daichi and Suga. They have great sex and anyone should be jealous of what they have. 11/10

Tanaka: the enthusiasm! We love to see it! He is a KING!! He’s not amazing in bed but it doesn’t REALLY matter cuz Kiyoko pegs him and he’s completely content with the situation. 5/10

Kiyoko: you cannot even imagine.... 20/10

Tsukkishima: like most things he does, he’s naturally pretty good at it, but he also doesn’t really try? If he put any effort in it could be amazing but will he put the effort? Hm. And yes he is sadistic in bed. Of course he is. 8.5/10

Yamaguchi: very sweet and considerate, if a bit anxious at times. He’s really sensitive himself so he knows how to make you feel good. Basically vanilla though. He doesn’t have a high sex drive. 4/10

TsukkiYama: they’re good together because Tsukkishima doesn’t like to put that much effort in and Yamaguchi is so sensitive and reacts so easily to stimulus that he doesn’t have to try very hard lol. I think Tsuki likes to tease Yamaguchi as foreplay and sometime Yamaguchi likes the sadistic side of Tsuki but I think more often than not they just have sweet, soft sex and stare into each other’s eyes. 9/10

Kenma: this boy only does things he’s good at, so he’s technically very good at fucking. He’s really sexy and he has like, pornstar skills even if his enthusiasm and stamina aren’t high. 9/10

Kuroo: you look at this man and know he can fuck. How do you know? You just do. Kuroo is good in bed there’s just no way he isn’t. Also, I think he’s very creative in bed and he’ll probably surprise you. 10/10

KuroKen: KINK. THESE BOYS ARE KINKY. why? Because Kenma gets bored too easily and he likes games and Kuroo is alllllll too willing to try new shit to please Kenma. BDSM, roleplay, crossdressing, semi-public sex, you name it they’ve probably done it tbh. I think Kenma’s favorite thing to do is to send Kuroo increasingly hornier, sexier photos of himself throughout the day so by the time Kuroo gets home he’s pissed and fired up and then they have amazing fucking sex for hours. 15/10

Lev: He has a lot of (possibly unearned) confidence lmao. He’s not bad, he’s actually pretty good, but he needs the right partner to reign him in. 7.5/10

Yaku: THIS BOY LIKES TO BE SMACKED AROUND. I don’t know why I feel so strongly about this but hooooo boy. Yaku wants to be abused in bed. He wants to be tied up and spanked and spat on. 11/10 it’s probably really hot.

Kindaichi: a virgin.

Kunimi: my ace king.

Iwaizumi: he fucks hard and he knows it. It’s not about technique it’s just about raw fucking. He’s the kind who isn’t really trying to please you as much as just pleasing himself and just so happens to fuck you great in the process. 9/10

Oikawa: You’d think all the boasting and that ego would be unearned but nah, he’s pretty good in bed. He’s surprisingly attentive to your needs and he’s the KING of dirty talk. He considers sex just another thing to be excellent at and he’s right. 9/10

IwaOi: the fights these two get into in the bedroom... luckily they’re both into that shit. Surprisingly when they’re fucking each other I think both of their technical skill goes down. It’s about the passion for them. They just like to make a mess of the other one no matter the cost. 8/10

Kyotani: YO SOMEONE COME GET UR FUCKING DOG!

Yahaba: OKAY.

Ushijima: ohhhh the way this man will lift you up and fuck you on any surface. It’s the intensity. It’s the muscles. It’s the sheer size of this man. Wow. Yeah. 16/10

Tendo: Kinks, but like, ones you’ve never even heard of? That you didn’t know were a thing? Anyway you’re going to leave confused but you’ll enjoy it. 12/10

Bokuto: exactly like Nishinoya but even more childish somehow. A lot of fun in bed. Amazing body and endurance and attitude. Can have amazing chemistry with anyone at any time. 12/10

Akaashi: sexiness levels off the charts. This man knows how to seduce, he knows how to tease, he is a master of foreplay. You’re completely undone before he even touches you. A king. 13/10

BokuAka: the kind of couple who fucks almost constantly. They never get tired of it. I think they take turns bossing the other one around. As often as they fuck it’s never boring. It can be sexy one moment and sweet the next. Romantic as fuck. Hot as fuck. 18/10

Atsumu: an extremely good fuck. He’s putting in maximum effort. His body is amazing. It’s not effortless, like he’s trying really hard, but he’s succeeding. 13/10

Osamu: the same as Atsumu except it actually is effortless for him. 14/10

Aran: the kind of sex that makes you fall in love with him. It’s not that it’s amazing at the time but it’s good and he’s sweet and tender and by the end of it you want to marry him. 10/10

Kita: almost as good as Daichi except I think his sex drive is just a bit lower. Still 1000/10

Hoshiumi: Napoleon complex. He overcompensates but that’s fine cuz it works out for you. 7/10

Hirugami: stallion. Amazing stamina. Keeps a really level head in bed so he always knows exactly what to do to make you feel good. 9/10

Sakusa: if you have a degradation kink this is the man for you. 11/10 very flexible.

Aone: absolutely underrated. Will treat you right. The sweetest lover. A precious bean with a big body. You love to see it 10/10

Haikyuu!! Couples Headcanons For That Fic I’m Never Going To Write

DAISUGA

-Gradually growing closer and developing feelings

-Suga confesses first, some time in high school

-Daichi realizes his feelings first and pines after Suga so much even Asahi is like “maybe you should just tell him?”

-Suga is a bottom with a filthy mouth; Daichi can never decide if he prefers calling the shots or being ordered around

ASANOYA

-Asahi is goddamn terrified of this crazy goblin when they first meet, while Noya thinks Asahi is the shit. Noya likes Asahi right away and declares them best friends; Asahi takes a while to warm up to Noya, falling in love first with his passion

-The aftermath of the Date Tech match is their first real fight. They make up the day Asahi steps back into the gym

-Noya confesses first and Asahi is so shocked he thinks he might pass out

-They get married in one of the countries they visit during their world tour. All their friends are mad they weren’t invited

-Asahi bottoms. Noya is, with everyone else, an impatient, obstinate fucker, but with Asahi he is slow and careful and his patience is endless. Asahi never doubts that Noya loves him

KUROKEN

-Kuroo has loved Kenma since they were seven and six years old; Kenma’s crush on Kuroo is the slow burn to end all slow burns, with him only realizing it in Kuroo’s last year of high school

-Kuroo confesses to six year old Kenma one fine sunny day, after an afternoon of video games and volleyball. Kenma does not quite understand because “we’re boys though” and also he is six

-Kenma’s crush develops so slowly he doesn’t realize it exists until he collapses after the nationals match against Karasuno and Kuroo is the first at his side. He says “thank you for getting me into volleyball,” while thinking in an exhausted daze “god I love him”

-Kuroo is a switch who likes to bottom and will do anything Kenma tells him to

IWAOI

-These two are the epitome of “cant pinpoint when I fell in love because there was never a time I wasn’t in love”

-Possibly fooled around in high school. Were definitely each other’s first kiss in middle school. Write it off as “we’re just best friends.”

-Don’t get together until after high school, when Iwaizumi realizes Oikawa is serious about going to Argentina. This becomes a long all night talk about them, their future, and what they want. Neither can imagine a future without the other in it

-Oikawa asks Iwaizumi to go to Argentina with him. Iwaizumi says he can’t just mooch off Oikawa, he needs his own life. Iwaizumi says he’s going to California to study, “and then I’ll be your team’s personal trainer.”

-The plan was to eventually return to Japan together, but one lazy Argentinian morning after the Japan vs Argentina match Iwaizumi says, “you know what I can do in Argentina that I can’t in Japan? Marry you.”

-Oikawa is a bottom who cries during sex; Iwaizumi is a top and a bit of a dom, but he enjoys Oikawa tying him up and domming him occasionally

BOKUAKA

-Love at first sight (sort of). Bokuto decides Akaashi is his one and only after the very first spike he hits off Akaashi’s toss. Akaashi falls head over heels in the span of a week

-Neither of them say anything to avoid ruining their friendship, until one day Bokuto goes fuck it yolo, kisses Akaashi on the mouth, and asks him out. Akaashi is dazed and half of him wonders if he’s hallucinating and finally gone insane. The entire team knows within 24 hours.

-Bokuto can be surprisingly quiet and gentle, and Akaashi can sometimes be very loud, but only with each other

-Bokuto bottoms. Akaashi is the blowjob king

Chapter 2: Nishinoya x reader misinterpretations

Angsty with a happy ending

Suggested Asanoya

I know I know, technically Nishinoya wouldn’t go to Asahi for relationship advice but for the sake of the one shot let’s say he would.

It was a Tuesday, (Y/N) and Nishinoya were currently in their classroom. The second period of the day had just finished and the two of them were packing their bags.

“Hey Nishinoya? Wanna meet up for lunch today?” (Y/N) asked.

“Sorry (Y/N), I was actually going to ask Asahi to hang out today, I need to discuss something with him.” Nishinoya replied. (Y/N) nodded. “Talking about that, he’s here, I’m gonna go! See you at practise!” And with that Nishinoya ran off to meet up with Asahi. They were standing just outside the classroom where (Y/N) couldn’t hear them, talking about something. A little later Nishinoya waved at Asahi and ran off, a smile on his face.

----

Volleyball practise came quickly that afternoon and as always (Y/N) was there to help out. (Y/N) watched Nishinoya during their practise. They were both in their second year now, and what Nishinoya didn’t know was that (Y/N) had a crush on him ever since the end of their first year.

They had noticed how great the dynamic between Nishinoya and Asahi currently was, despite their argument last year. If anything, they seemed to have grown closer. (Y/N) was glad that the two guys had made up and were forming such a strong bond, though sometimes they felt jealous at how much attention Asahi was getting from the shorter friend.

“(Y/N)! Mind helping me out here?” Their friend Kiyoko yelled at them, shaking them out of their little daydream.

“I’ll be right there!” They replied.

----

For the next week (Y/N) noticed how much more time Nishinoya and Asahi seemed to be spending together. It was a Thursday now and volleyball practise had just ended. As always (Y/N) stayed behind to clean up. Nishinoya was supposed to help them today and they were rather looking forward to spending some time with him again. That excitement was short lived when Nishinoya walked up to them with a question.

“Hey (Y/N), do you mind if I leave already? I know I’m supposed to help clean up but I want to go check out this new cafe and they close pretty early today, I don’t want to end up being too late.” (Y/N), not being able to say no to him, nodded.

“Oh that’s alright, I don’t mind cleaning up alone today, have fun Noya!” They smiled.

“You’re the best (Y/N)!” Nishinoya waved at them before running away towards Asahi, grabbing his hand to drag him along. “Let’s go!”

‘So Asahi is going with him huh?’ (Y/N) thought as they saw the gym doors close, their smile immediately faded from their face. ‘I should’ve known they were going together..’ Their vision started to become blurry as they felt a tear roll down their face. The volleyball they were holding was dropped to the ground as they sat down on the floor, their back leaning against the wall and tears now streaming down their face. They sat like that for a while before they heard the gym doors open and someone walking in.

“(Y/N)?” A voice softly called out for them. They lifted their head to look at who was talking to them and saw Kiyoko kneeling in front of them. “(Y/N), what’s wrong?” (Y/N) didn’t reply, they just hugged Kiyoko, now crying in her shoulder. She patted their back, trying to calm them down.

“Sorry.” (Y/N) apologised as they leaned back and wiped their tears. “I shouldn’t be bothering you with this.”

“It’s okay.” Kiyoko softly smiled at them. “I’m here for you. Do you want to talk about it?” (Y/N) seemed to think about it for a little, before softly shaking their head.

“I probably shouldn’t, you might start to think that I’m a bad friend.”

“If you feel this bad about what happened, then I doubt I could find you a bad friend because of it.” She reassured them. (Y/N) was quiet for a little while longer before they started to speak.

“Nishinoya and Asahi…. They’re dating aren’t they?” They suddenly spoke. Kiyoko looked at them, confused by this sudden statement.

“What makes you think that?”

“They’ve been spending a lot more time together lately. Everytime I asked Nishinoya to hang out last week he already had plans with Asahi. And today… today Nishinoya went away early to go to this new cafe… with Asahi. And I, I really want to be happy for them, I really do, but…” They fell quiet again for a little, again a tear made its way down their face. “I just feel so jealous because..”

“Because they’re leaving you out?” They shook their head.

“Because I want to be the one dating Nishinoya…” They quietly spoke. They let out a sigh. ���I shouldn’t be thinking that, I’ll be going home now.” And with that (Y/N) stood up and left the gym.

----

The next day (Y/N) didn’t show up for practise.

“Has anyone seen (Y/N) today?” Nishinoya asked, sad that his friend wasn’t there today.

“I told her to stay home today and rest.” Kiyoko replied.

“Rest?”

“Yes, and we need to talk.” She motioned for Nishinoya to follow her to a corner of the gym. “I found (Y/N) crying in the gym yesterday.”

“They were crying!? Are they okay? What were they crying about?” Nishinoya’s voice was filled with concern.

“...You, Nishinoya. They were crying about you.”

“Me? But… why? Was it because I left them alone to clean up?”

“They think you and Asahi are dating.” Kiyoko told him. “I know you’re not, Asahi told me about your plan, but (Y/N) doesn’t know that, and it’s breaking their heart. If you want to have any chance of your plan succeeding then you should talk to them as quickly as possible. They feel bad for not being happy for you and Asahi. My best guess is that they are going to bury their feelings as deep as possible. The longer you wait, the harder they will be to reach.”

Nishinoya nodded and immediately ran out of the gym to (Y/N)’s house, not even bothering to change out of his gym clothes, it’s not like he had even begun practising anyway.

----

“(Y/N)!, one of your volleyball friends is here for you!” (Y/N)’s mom yelled from downstairs. Thinking that it was Kiyoko to check up on them, they yelled back.

“Just send them to my room!”

A little later the door to (Y/N)’s room opened. Revealing the last person they wanted to see that day standing in the doorway. “Nishinoya?”

The short guy gave them a soft smile as they entered their room, closing the door behind them. “I brought some cookies for you, I thought you could use them.” He was silent for a minute. “I missed you at practise today.”

“Sorry about that, I just wasn’t feeling too great today.” They gave him an apologetic smile. “Talking about practise, isn’t that like.. right now?” They asked. Nishinoya nodded.

“It is, but Kiyoko told me you didn’t feel good today so I decided to ditch practise to check up on you.”

“Kiyoko told you huh?” They looked away, pretending not to feel special about the fact that he skipped practise today.

“She also told me about what happened yesterday….. I’m sorry. About making you feel alone, and for giving you the wrong idea. I’m not dating Asahi.” That caught (Y/N)’s attention as they looked up at him.

“You’re… not?” Nishinoya shook his head and (Y/N) chuckled awkwardly. “Wow, not only did I misinterpret that completely wrong, I also made this incredibly awkward.”

“The reason I was so excited to go to that cafe yesterday is because I wanted to check out if it was a good place for a date.”

“So you are going out on a date..” (Y/N)’s spirit sank again.

“Hopefully.” Nishinoya nodded. “The reason I’ve been spending so much time with Asahi is because he was helping me plan to ask you out.”

Silence. (Y/N)’s eyes widened as they looked at Nishinoya who was nervously staring back at them.

“To….ask me out?” (Y/N) asked after a while. Nishinoya nodded.

“I was going to wait for the right time, but then Kiyoko told me about yesterday and I couldn’t let you feel bad like that so… (Y/N), would you like to go out with me sometime?” (Y/N) looked at him in surprise for a minute before she started to laugh.

“I’d love to.”

(Y/N)’s laughter was contagious and soon Nishinoya ended up with a big grin on his face.

Quarantine - AsaNoya

Thank you so much for your suggestion, @chamaeleonic ! Unfortunately the request was too long to screenshot and put here, but the prompt is about Noya trying to get Asahi to kiss him! I hope you enjoy~!

Asahi and Noya had gotten together at the end of Asahi’s third year, which, when Asahi left for university, admittedly made things a little tough between them. Their class schedules seemed to always collide with the other’s free time, and – possibly worst of all – they didn’t play volleyball together anymore. With all of that in mind, Nishinoya spent the night at Asahi’s apartment quite often, and it just so happened that he’d been spending the night when an official quarantine call was made.

Despite Asahi saying that Noya should probably go home to his family, there wasn’t any sincerity to it, and Noya read right through that. He knew that Asahi got lonely on his own, and if he went back to his family house, Noya knew he wouldn’t be allowed to leave again until quarantine was lifted. So he did the only rational thing: he snuck into his own house at two in the morning to grab a duffel bag of clothes, his toothbrush, and his stack of sports magazines – just the essentials. Asahi served as a getaway driver, quivering behind the wheel because what if Noya was caught, he seemed to be taking a while…

And then Noya’s tuft of blond hair poked out from the second-story window, and he shimmied off the roof and back to the car.

Despite actually dating for several months, being best friends for several years, and being locked in together, Asahi still wouldn’t kiss Nishinoya, and the libero found himself losing his patience. He knew Asahi was timid, but this was a whole new level of timid. Noya even wondered if it was something wrong with him personally – but that thought left him quickly, because if Asahi had a problem with him then he wouldn’t have let Noya stay at his apartment so often.

Then again, Noya thought, maybe he’d just worn Asahi down.

He didn’t dwell long on that thought, either. Instead, he began devising a plan. What could possibly turn Asahi on? His first thought was to get shirtless somehow, but make it accidental – Asahi always stared just a little too long when Noya changed. He decided to try this while they watched some cheesy movie Asahi had insisted on.

“Oh jesus,” Noya muttered, accidentally (purposely) spilling a can of soda down his front. “Oops, guess I’d better…” He took off the shirt slowly, trying to be seductive, and before he even got the shirt off and over his head there was a piece of cloth being thrust into his lap.

Once he tossed his own shirt away, he saw Asahi, also shirtless now, and he looked down to find Asahi’s own t-shirt in his lap. “I know you get cold easily,” Asahi mumbled, and Noya’s face turned red as he stumbled over his words. How did he say “dumbass, I was trying to get you to kiss me” without sounding too mean?

Asahi was back to watching the movie, so Noya gingerly put Asahi’s shirt on. He blushed even more as it hung off his shoulder, the shirt coming down well past his thighs. Why had he not thought of wearing Asahi’s clothing before? The ace was right – Noya did get cold easily, and this shirt was practically a blanket in and of itself! Plus, he could tell Asahi was glancing at him every few seconds, just to get a look at him in the shirt.

With no luck on the ‘getting naked’ forefront, Noya decided to scrap the idea entirely and instead devise a plan involving his second-favorite thing next to Asahi and volleyball (they were tied for first): food. Often the two butted heads when trying to decide what to eat, especially with such a limited suggestion, so they usually made their own meals. Noya stirred his instant ramen idly, watching Asahi eat his rice. He didn’t exactly know what his plan was here, so he started making shapes with the vegetables in his ramen while he thought – and then it hit him.

Noya quickly arranged the vegetables into the best kissy-face he could manage, considering his limited artistic ability. He even arranged two pieces of meat to look somewhat like a heart. “Asahi!” he said excitedly, pointing to his food, and Asahi laughed.

“Cute,” he murmured back. “Hold on.”

The look of concentration on Asahi’s face rivaled the concentration he used to have on the volleyball court, Noya thought while Asahi arranged his own food. Asahi was always much more talented when it came to drawing and arts, but he was pleasantly surprised when Asahi showed Noya his rice bowl, and the veggies had been arranged in the shape of a dog’s head.

“Asahi, that’s so cool!”

Asahi laughed, a little embarrassed, maybe, and rubbed the back of his neck. “Your turn,” he chirped.

This went on until their food got cold: Noya would make a crude shape, always implying something romantic, and Asahi would respond with an adorable shape that made Noya both frustrated that Asahi didn’t understand and flustered that Asahi was so good at their silly game. Noya could feel his cheeks getting hotter and hotter until finally, as they bumped each other’s shoulders doing the dishes that night, he finally burst.

“I want you to kiss me!”

The shout startled both of them, because it had been quiet besides the soft hum of the television in the background and the clanging of dishes as Asahi washed and Noya dried. Finally, finally Asahi flustered more than Noya did; Noya was usually so calm and collected, but somehow Asahi continually got the better of him.

Asahi refused to look at Noya as he thought of an acceptable answer to that statement. Noya felt himself becoming more frustrated, but he still didn’t say anything. He returned his attention to drying the dishes being passed to him, but Asahi wasn’t washing the dishes anymore. Noya looked up at him, about to open his mouth again to ask a question when Asahi leaned down and did it.

The kiss was entirely too clumsy, but neither of them minded. Their noses bumped together, Noya had to crane his neck up, and Asahi had to squat. It was so clumsy that Noya actually laughed against Asahi’s lips, and Asahi’s entire face turned pink (as if it wasn’t already). “Was it that bad?” Asahi asked, pulling away and touching his lips nervously.

“No, no,” Noya waved his hand. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to laugh. It’s just that, we’re really bad at that.”

“W-well yeah, that was my first kiss!”

Noya flushed at this, and Asahi looked like he might pass out. “Really?” he asked finally in disbelief.

“Yes,” Asahi hung his head, as if it was something to be embarrassed about. Noya beamed and pumped his fist into the air.

“Don’t worry, Asahi-san, I’ll teach you how to kiss!” he announced proudly.

“O-okay,” Asahi murmured timidly.

Over the course of quarantine, Noya became more and more confident in asking for kisses. After their initial attempt, they slowly learned how to kiss one another; usually it involved sitting down so they were closer to the same height, and often Noya would warn Asahi a few times before he actually kissed him. Asahi eventually gained enough confidence to surprise Noya with a kiss on the cheek or the forehead, and each time it made Noya’s face turn red with embarrassment and happiness and nervousness all at once. Asahi would laugh, despite the blush touching his cheeks, too.

Haikyuu fic recs - Hanahaki Disease

Okay so I absolutely adore Hanahaki fics.  In particular, it’s one of my favourite trops for Haikyuu! pairings, so here we go with some recs!  There are definitely more out there, but there are (in my humble opinion) some of the most enjoyable I’ve found so far.  Hope you enjoy!

**have mercy on me - hiuythn [10.5k words]

Hajime looks at the black and white slides, takes in the way the plant grows uninhibited inside him. He presses a hand to his ribcage. It doesn’t even feel like there’s anything wrong.

----

Or, Hajime gets the Hanahaki disease.

Comments:  The reason I don't think I'll ever be able to write an IwaOi Hanahaki fic. This is it. This is the best there is. This has my heart and my life.  Seriously though y’all, this is well worth the read and the reread and the midnight reread when you’re crying in your pyjamas.  Please, please read it.

These Feelings of Love Will Destroy Us Both - la_haine_pacifique [1.9k words]

"The Hanahaki Disease is an illness born from one-sided love. Flowers grow in the respiratory and digestive tracts, feeding on those unrequited feelings. Those afflicted with the disease cough and vomit up petals, leaves, and whole flowers as time goes on. The plants can lead to subsequent suffocation, starvation, or hypovolemia, and subsequent death. The infection can be removed through surgery, but the feelings disappear along with the petals. Alternatively, the disease resolves itself if the feelings are found to be returned."

Comments:  Okay so this is technically a series, but to be perfectly honest I mostly just recommend the first one.  It’s not as eloquently heartwrenching as have mercy on me, but if you like Friends-to-Lovers DaiSuga it’s a good place to go.

Hanahaki - weirdmilk [2.9k words]

Oikawa is afflicted with Hanahaki disease - an illness borne of love believed to be unrequited - that causes him to cough up bright blue flowers.

‘What’s in your hand?’ Iwaizumi’s voice trembles like a violin string. He already knows.

Comments:  Backwards to the way I’ve seen it before, which drew me in.  It has a unique ending.  I mean, basically if you’d like to see Oikawa suffering, here you go.  (If you wouldn’t like to see our boys suffering, why are you here?)

La Douleur Exquise - Watanabe Maya [8.2k words]

You are sixteen when you first cough up flowers in your hands, petals of a catchfly painting the ground in shades of scarlet and a sorrowful red. \\ Hanahaki AU. Oneshot.

Comments:  DaiSuga.  2nd-person POV, which I don’t usually go for, but here it works.  Kudos to the author for making me enjoy something I wouldn’t usually read!

**Sorry Tsukki - The_Busy_Beee [12.6k words]

Hanahaki Disease is a life threatening condition, and without proper treatment or mutual feelings, death is a very real possibility.

Yamaguchi Tadashi learned that first hand.

Comments:  Okay so this is a super-good author.  High quality fic.  (Also the author is really nice, they replied to all my crazed comments and just eee, good reading experience all-round.)  It’s part of a series, and I would just rec the whole series but I think each work deserves its own place on the list.  This first one got me bad, I was ‘lowkey’ (*cough*) crying while I finished it.

**Slow Down - The_Busy_Beee [5k words]

Nishinoya Yuu's whole life can be summed up with the words "Go Fast!"

But, waking up with a mouth full of flower petals can throw a wrench into your plans pretty quickly.

(This is set as a prequel for Sorry Tsukki, but is completely unrelated and can be read as a stand alone.)

Comments:  Oof.  Perfectly complements the first one.  I absolutely loved them in order, but if you’re really after an AsaNoya, go for it!

**Learning to Love You Again - The_Busy_Beee [6.7k words]

Kenma is terrified of having Hanahaki Disease at ten years old, so he opts for the only known procedure that will save his life.

Kuroo can't accept that.

Or:

Kenma loses the ability to love again, and Kuroo refuses to take that laying down.

(Set in the same universe as Sorry Tsukki, but can be read as a stand alone.)

Comments:  A very unique story, I hadn’t seen it done quite like this before!  Lovely lovely work by The_Busy_Beee.

...and I have to put in my own, too:  (〃▽〃)

You’ll never know dear, how much I love you - littlemissmusique [4.8k words]

Suga woke up to see three perfect yellow petals on his pillow, glistening with blood.  Oh, he thought.  Of course.

OR:

Suga gets Hanahaki disease. Fluff and angst ensue.

Please don’t take my sunshine away - littlemissmusique [4.6k words]

The second time Kageyama Tobio saw Hanahaki flowers, nestled in his own palm, he knew they weren’t a mistake.

OR:

Kageyama gets Hanahaki disease. Emotions have never particularly been his strong suit.

The sequel to You'll never know dear, how much I love you. (But it will make sense on its own.)

[koolcatkenma]

Asanoya request?! Prompt being that Noya finds out he's in live and is aggressive about persueing Asahi

It started out like every other volleyball practice; the team warmed up and ran together before splitting off into groups to practice different aspects of the game. Noya, being the only libero for that year, stood on the court across from the spikers, stood ready to receive every spike that came his way.

It came to be Asahi’s turn, and he stood at the opposite end of the court, ready for Suga’s sign to let him know he was ready. They did this every day, whether in regular practice or afterward when they had the court to themselves. But something was different. There was a different vibe around the older player, eyes sharp and focused. He nodded to the setter and the ball was thrown to the air, close to the net, perfect. Asahi was already in the air, hand back. And the sound his palm made against the ball was deafening. It made everyone in the room stop and turn to watch, as the ball hurled toward the libero. And he was gonna get it, leaning right and leaping off his back foot. But it spun, seemingly out of nowhere, and went the opposite direction. The ball hit just before the white line smacking the floor with such power. And Noya laid on the ground, staring at the spot it hit. And then back to his friend, who now stood over him, profusely apologizing. A hand extended to help him up and the smaller boy took it eagerly.

“Asahi! That was so cool! Do it again!” And when the shy boy heard those words and blushed, Noya’s heart sped up and heat spread up his neck, surely making him redder than any amount of exercise ever had. 

And that was when it started. It began to grow.

***

Nationals came around, and Karasuno won. They had done it. And on that day, Nishinoya made a vow to himself that, no matter what, he was going to confess to Asahi. But when he rounded the corner, towards their locker room, he stopped. A coach all too familiar to him stood talking to the ace. He was from one of the top schools in all of Japan, and he was handing the boy a card, which surely contained contact information. And Noya stood frozen, just out of sight. That school was at least a three-hour train ride away. And it was the best thing Asahi could do for his future. And Noya couldn’t hinder in that decision making.

And when he was walking home with his friend several weeks later, and Asahi broke the news, that he was going to this school, Noya put on a great show of excitement. He really was happy for him. Truly. But he couldn’t help but feel a tiny bit sorry for himself. And something in Asahi knew that his friend was heartbroken, and the ace couldn’t help but feel his cheat tighten and words that wanted to spill from his mouth be held back. 

***

It was his third year. They were in the spring season, busy as all hell. Ennoshita was captain, leading the new first years through the plays while trying to contain the balls of energy that was Kageyama and Hinata. And Noya was busy training a new libero, one that stood a few inches above him but with less energy. And everything was fine. But every time he stood opposite the spikers, he would expect to see those sharp and focused eyes. He longed for them.

The captain knew about his feelings; hell, the whole team did. As soon as the first practice of the year had finished, the boy stood up on the stage and yelled it out, having been trapped in his chest for so long. The third-year was quickly consoled by his friends, and some even encouraged him to go and tell him. But he knew that it wasn’t possible. Until one of their matches asked them to travel to them, instead of playing at Karasuno. And it just so happened that this particular school was a ten-minute walk to that one University. 

The day came about and Noya was a ball of nerves. This was not an official match so no advertising had been done of the opposing school’s part. The city had no clue they were coming. And Noya had a plan.

One would be surprised at how easy it was to find out certain information about students at the school. But with his well-known name and connections to Karasuno, people were quick to give out this information. Such as volleyball schedules or people’s dorm numbers. 

The match went by quickly, ending after two sets. The team walked out smiling, congratulating one another. Since it was late and not a school night, the team opted to stay the night in the city. Ennoshita sent them off to do whatever, threatening conditioning if anyone wasn’t back before curfew. Noya was the exception, and everyone knew why.

A ten-minute walk turned into a five-minute sprint and soon enough the small boy was pounding on the door of Asahi, hoping he was there.

Sure enough, after a minute of pounding, the door was flung open and a disheveled Asahi towered over him, a towel over his wet hair. He squinted, jaw dropping as he connected the dots. But before he could muster up a greeting, Noya was speaking, words rushing out. 

“Asahi, I need to tell you this right now. I like you! I have since last year, but I couldn’t tell you because you were being scouted by the best schools and you moved so far away so quickly, and I miss you on the court and I miss seeing you at school and walking you home and, Asahi I hope you like me back!” He attracted the attention of the neighbors, who were peaking out their doors. 

Asahi stood stunned, silent but only for a heartbeat. 

“I...I like you too, Noya.” He sputtered, turning beet red and bringing a hand to the top of his head. As soon as the words left his mouth, Noya was in his arms, jumping and shouting. The audience they had gathered gave small cheers before returning to their own rooms. Asahi welcomed the smaller boy in, and he immediately made himself at home. Asahi finished drying off while listening to the libero recount his match today, saying how excited he was that although he played most of the game, he felt confident in the upcoming first year to finish out the second set. He talked about school, how he had watched every one of Asahi’s matches, how he got in trouble for cheering mid-class once. Asahi laughed, sliding into bed next to him. It was like those nights they shared the bed when rooms were short, both passing out without much conversation post-match. But this time their fingers were intertwined and legs pressed against another. And they had plenty to talk about.

Needless to say, Noya missed the bus back.

Haikyuu Fic Recs!

So I’m going to premise this rec list by saying that I like fics on the long-side so if you’re looking for short one-shots, you might not find what you’re looking for in this list. I’m not a huge fan of angst (although that doesn’t mean there isn’t any in this list, just not a lot), I enjoy smut ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) , I like a fair few rarepairs and I like to think that I’m extremely picky when it comes to how something is written, pacing etc. I’ve read all the fics in this list multiple times, they are definitely my all-time favourites. I organized these as best as I could and included the rating, word count and summary from the author for each. 

(Fics with a ♡ beside them are my 100% must-reads.)

Recs are under the cut, happy reading! 

(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:・ﾟ✧

IWAOI

In April – Teen – 28K - Tooru dates people and it takes Hajime a while to figure out why he hates it. Like six years.

Learning To Walk (So That We Can Run) – M – 27K - In his second year of university, physical therapy just isn’t cutting it. Oikawa’s knee is getting worse, and he can’t hide it anymore. Or: the light angst, project-your-own-life-experiences-on-Oikawa knee surgery fic you didn’t know you wanted.

♡ Conquering The Great King – E – 105K - Iwaizumi blinked his gaze over to Oikawa, “Last time was supposed to be a one time thing,” he said, voice low, lacking some conviction. Oikawa’s lips twitched into a smirk and he brought them hovering just over Iwaizumi’s, “One time thing, Two time thing, what’s it matter as long as it’s not a Relationship thing?”

Third Times a Charm – M – 64K - There are lines you just don’t cross with your best friend. Someone probably should have told them that.

KAGEHINA

♡ Where The Night Goes – M – 21K - When their bond loses the immediate context of volleyball, they’re left to consider why it’s still so vital and important. Meeting again, by chance, six years later.

Love and Victory – M – 20K - After losing to Shiratorizawa in their final Spring High preliminary, Kageyama leaves Miyagi on a sports scholarship, and Hinata remains in Sendai for university. Or, that’s what Hinata thinks, until he runs into Kageyama on the first day of volleyball intramurals and they set out to form another winning combination.

Love and Now – E – 16K – After their break-up three years prior, Hinata attends Kageyama’s final university match.

Parisienne Walkways – M – 12K - Alternative title: Kageyama likes figure skating and Hinata is gay.

Binding Problem (WIP) – E – 95K - Hinata pines.

Countdown (Series WIP) – Teen, M, E – 28K - It starts with a phone call. Kageyama doesn’t like phone calls, but he likes Hinata. A Kagehina coming-of-age series exploring friendship and romance and awkwardness from Kageyama’s POV.

Thaw – M – 40K - Kageyama Tobio just wants to get through the day. He hates winter, he hates most people, and he really hates getting up for an 8:00AM class. That’s when Hinata Shouyou, bright and obnoxious, literally comes running into his life at full-throttle and changes everything Kageyama thought he knew.

Routine – E – 22K – Hinata is a well-known cam boy, and Kageyama is his biggest fan.

BOKUAKA

The Way You Look At Me (WIP) – Teen – 62K - Bokuto sees him every day, every commute, at the final train. The stranger he only knows as Train Guy. Wrapped in coats, mystery, and distance - that is, until Bokuto breaks their familiar silence. He struggles with the hardest part of befriending someone he thinks he already knows: taking a step back to reevaluate all his assumptions. He finds the easiest part is getting to learn about Train Guy all over again.

Come Downstairs – Teen ��� 50K - Akaashi Keiji is pretty certain that he’s got love figured out. Or at least, he’s figured out that love isn’t for him. It isn’t until his new downstairs neighbor moves in that he realizes even intelligent people make mistakes in their calculations.

♡ Give Me – M – 22K – Akaashi is quite sure of who he wants, but this is Bokuto. This needs time, tact, and timing to get there /without/ blundering. (Also if you’re looking for a Fukuroudani team fic, this is it. I love this team, I had so much fun writing all the characters and interactions within and towards Nekoma. I just love the fucking owls so much okay).

Knock On Wood – Gen – 9K - He was awake again, his mind leaving the stage it had briefly slipped into, and he sat up slowly, ignoring his protesting muscles. Something about the knock sounded so familiar- the timing, the precision with which each hit sounded against the wall and resonated in his skull, the sequence of the taps. When it did click in his brain, Bokuto’s eyes widened in shock. He couldn’t believe he hadn’t recognized it sooner, couldn’t believe he was hearing it after all this time. The knock was morse code, and the message was exceptionally simple- all it said was a simple, recurring Hello.

Spending all, spending all my time (loving you) – Gen – 3K - The fastest speed ever recorded for a volleyball serve is 82 mph by the Bulgarian professional Matey Kaziyski. Bokuto’s own serve is around 75 mph on a good day. The stranger in the empty concrete lot behind Bokuto’s apartment building receives 72.4 mph of volleyball with the side of his head. In which Bokuto Koutarou plays volleyball at university, and Akaashi Keiji is a dimension traveller.

Tea Stained Polaroids – Gen – 5K – “I’m gonna date that,” Bokuto declares solemnly, and Kuroo throws a plastic spoon at his head.

♡ Cracks In The Pavement Will Lead You Home – M – 12K - Bokuto often thinks about Akaashi, especially when he’s running. It’s like his legs know where they’re supposed to take him. He grows into a habit of running a lot, just to keep that feeling going. Cracks and holes in the pavement aren’t fun to jump over if the final reward isn’t seeing Akaashi’s face. An alternate universe with a little bit of magic and a lot of growing up.

What Are The Chances? – E – 60K – Akaashi Keiji is a figure skater, and has been skating since he was a child. However, due to family issues, he’s often tasked with taking care of his adorable nephew, Shouyou, and doesn’t really see himself as one that has the time or desire for relationships. But when Shouyou runs off and leads him to a hockey player named Bokuto Koutarou, for some reason his heart stops and he can’t keep himself from thinking about him.

Campfire Effects – Gen – 11K - “my new neighbor shares my balcony and we keep running into each other outside” au, where Bokuto moves into the apartment next door and Akaashi falls in love with the neighbor that always climbs over his railing

Never Fly On One Wing – E – 23K – ‘This was not what Koutarou had planned out for his evening. Yet here he was, sweating, scratches on his arm, and a shaking cardboard box in his lap.’ In which Bokuto rescues an owl.

DAISUGA

♡ How to Manage – E – 39K - When Sugawara had walked in the office this morning, Daichi couldn’t help but feel a little guilty for hiring him. Not because he wasn’t the best candidate or because he didn’t deserve the job; he definitely was and he definitely did, but… But Daichi couldn’t help but feel the smallest pang of guilt when Suga glanced in his direction and his heart stepped out of rhythm and his cheeks flushed with heat.

Butterfly In The Subway – Teen – 62K - Sugawara Koushi has no idea he’s already in love with the man he’s supposed to hate.

♡ Black and Blue – E – 116K - Daichi’s new (temporary) neighbor is not only stunningly beautiful but also funny, friendly, with just a touch of mysterious. Naturally, Daichi freaks the fuck out. (AU where everyone lives in the same building and everyone is gay)

ASANOYA

Silica Sand – Gen – 32K – Overworked, over-stressed programmer Azumane Asahi works on the top floor of a Shinjuku skyscraper. Nervous around his coworkers and terrified of the long drop on the other side of the window, Asahi falls into a miserable routine, only to have it broken one day by a simple message on the outside of the glass. AU.

♡ Vienna Waits For You (WIP) – M – 125K - “It was the day before Nishinoya Yuu’s twenty-second birthday, and he had never been more convinced that he’d reached the end of the better part of his life.” A story about losing many things, finding some of them again, and realizing the rest wasn’t really lost after all.

The Chronicles of the Virgin Asahi – E – 88K - Asahi wants the earth to swallow him whole when he accidentally crashes into tiny Nishinoya Yuu while riding his bike. He remains unsure of his stance on disappearing off the face of the planet after Noya asks him out on a date. But with the (somewhat aggressive) encouragement of his best friends/roommates, Asahi takes one small step forward, and soon finds himself doing a lot less hiding and a lot more living than he ever thought he could.

TSUKIYAMA

Stoplights (on hiatus unfortunately) – E – 48K - Welcome to Yamaguchi Tadashi’s sexual awakening. Kindly leave your expectations at the door.

Shooting Stars and Satellites – M – 14K - Tsukishima moves to Tokyo for university, and Yamaguchi stays in Miyagi. Four years later, they see each other again.

RAREPAIR/MISC

♡ In Good Faith We Swap Our Aces  – Various Pairings – 15k - So many questions. Will Oikawa break down first, or Akaashi? Is Bokuto the bigger alien, or Ushiwaka? Who really sent a lamb for slaughter - Daichi or Kuroo? Are bonds being made or broken? What exactly is Karasuno scheming? What kind of purpose is this activity meant to achieve? And just who does this sort of arrangement please?

Not For Sale – Kuroo/Tsukki – M – 19K – Kei’s faced him plenty of times shoulder-to-shoulder or on the other side of the volleyball net; never for any other reason, and never in his very private, very carefully planned, safe time away from the court. Nevertheless, he took Kuroo’s hand and smiled bitterly, finding comfort in the sole fact that his summer couldn’t possibly get any worse.

True Ending – Mattsun/Makki – M – 12K - He never really questioned the handsy nature of their friendship, it was just something that felt normal after falling asleep on a tiny couch while watching movies too many times. Who was Hanamaki to say no to cuddles with someone he considered his best friend? The fact that Matsukawa was always a bit cute in the wee hours of the morning was just something Hanamaki would have to file away in the back of his mind.

Boiled Frogs – Mattsun/Makki – E – 91K - They’ve always been really close friends, but Hanamaki begins to question how close when Matsukawa begins dating someone else - someone else that doesn’t treat him well. When he suspects that Matsukawa may be in an abusive relationship, Hanamaki realizes that opening his best friend’s eyes to his situation may be harder than he had ever anticipated. (Pretty angsty, happy ending.)

It’s Cold Out There – Mattsun/Makki – M – 8K - Seijoh’s parties are always a mess, but this one takes the cake.

♡ Hearts of Gold – Komi/Sarukui – M - 63K - Komi goes to Fukuroudani academy with high hopes. He wishes for a fresh start and to concentrate fully on volleyball, not on his newfound sexuality. This quickly goes down the drain when he meets Sarukui Yamato. Setting his feelings aside, Komi wants to be friends with Sarukui, even when his feelings go haywire when they’re close. (Set in first year)

Into The Battlefield With a Flower Bouquet – Komi/Saukui – M – 14K - Komi likes to take naps, and Sarukui isn’t here for that. When the growing conflict between them drives Komi to challenge Sarukui to a fight, it’s up to the other Fukuroudani first years to make them stop. Then Shirofuku Yukie has an idea. (Set in first year)

♡ Rewrite the Rulebook – Ukai/Takeda – E – 100K - “Karasuno needs a coach.” Takeda knows what the volleyball team needs, and he’s determined to get it at all costs. Ukai is prepared to resist but he’s not prepared for Takeda.

Mixed Signals – Kyoutani/Yahaba – Teen – 7K - Feelings are definitely a thing he’s having. Kyoutani is really sweet. He’s family oriented and he prefers novels with female leads and he’s in all honors classes. He kind of has a big head, totally has a big smile, definitely has a big heart. His eyes are nice, he’s got that dimple. Yahaba groans and rubs his fists into his eyes.

Do Unto Others – Kindaichi/Kunimi – Teen – 10K - Over time, Kunimi has realized he really likes having Kindaichi look after him.

♡ Just The Three of Us – Kageyama/Kindaichi – Gen, Teen, E – 21K - This is the story of the Kitagawa Daiichi trio: how they came together, how they fell apart, and how they found each other again. (5 Parts)

Learning Us – Tanaka/Ennoshita – E – 42K - Tanaka Ryuunosuke had a lot to learn - about himself, about Ennoshita Chikara, and that “happily ever after” is rarely a direct path.

Haikyuu!! Summer Reads

I love reading stories about summer, and some of my all-time favourite haikyuu!! fics are brilliant summer stories, packed full of whirlwind romance, heat, and heartbreak as the season ends. Some of these I know you’ll have read before, but give the others a shot, because they’re all magical in their own way :3

//

This got long so I’ll stash it under a cut, but please do share these wonderful fics around! :3

HOLIDAY READS: long fics to get your teeth into this summer

the unbreakable fear of losing - Kagesuga, M, 21369

“Kageyama will be with Sugawara.”Tobio’s eyes flit back towards the soft, welcoming smile that hasn’t dimmed once since they got off the bus, and his stomach flutters despite it roiling otherwise in anxious nerves. Sugawara seems nice and quiet, which are two qualities Tobio values in people he’s forced to spend time with Tobio volunteers as a Junior counselor at a summer camp with Sugawara as his mentor.

this is one of the first hq fics I read and remains one of my favourite fics of all time. it perfectly captures the fleeting sense of summer and teenage years coming to a close. everyone is wonderfully written, and the prose is magical. even if you’re not usually a kagesuga shipper, i really recommend giving this one a go. 

//

The Stars in Summer by @ellessey-writes​ - Daisuga, E, 34609

The summer before his senior year of high school, Suga is grounded, stuck in a small town he doesn’t know, with no friends, no plans for the break, and no end in sight. Then, as luck would have it, he meets Daichi.

Suddenly, it’s a big town, and an even bigger world, with the open sky up above—and someone for Suga to reach out and touch it with, before the long train ride back home.

another story that perfectly captures the brief, transitory feeling of summer, and summer crushes. this story has the most wonderful mix of long, hot, lazy days, and the desperation of time quickly running out where it seemed like it was going to last forever. beautifully written, and achingly romantic.

Azumane Asahi’s Big Gay Romance - Asanoya, T, 13646

The air-con gets cranky, Asahi gets a job, and Nishinoya gets his man.

When Noya comes out to the team, the air conditioning system in the gym makes one long impassioned wail at the top of its lungs and then proceeds to break down. Honestly, Asahi doesn’t know which he’s more distracted by: the fact that Noya just cheerfully confessed he likes to make out with guys behind the school bleachers, or the high-pitched death knells of their murdered air-con.

one of the first hq fics i read, and still one of the best. this has the upbeat, irreverent feel of the show mixed with a slice of life shojo. it’s ridiculous, adorable, and all the characters are utterly charming.

This Insignificant Pride and Prejudice by @poulerslashes and @mysecretfanmoments - Ushioi, T, 33655

Oikawa Tooru graduated high school with the burning desire to succeed in his college career. He'd hoped that might include taking down his arch-nemesis along the way, but when he finds that his college team hosts an offensively familiar face, he can't help but think that the universe might be conspiring against him. After all, what could be worse than playing on the same team as Ushijima?

it might already be obvious how much i love this story, considering that i wrote a sequel to it, but honestly. if you’re not sold on this ship yet then this is a fic that will get you there, and you’ll fall in love with ushijima just as surely as elizabeth fell in love with darcy. it’s fun and wonderfully thought out, with a rich supporting cast and spot on characterisation.

Sun Above Your Shoulders - Kagehina, T, 26444

Hinata and Kageyama go to different high schools and meet again in Okinawa for the first time since middle school.

"Toss for me!"

The boy is grinning, already leading the way onto the court, walking backwards. Unthinkingly, Kageyama starts to follow him, then stops, annoyed at himself.

"I don't even know your name," he says.

"Hinata Shouyou." Hinata steps to the right side of the net and waits.

this is so, so charming. hinata and kageyama are both beautifully written and this story perfectly encapsulates the feeling of long summer breaks and brief summer flings. it’s so exciting to see this first meeting between them in a different setting, in different circumstances, yet how quickly they click because volleyball.

Under the Radar by @lilienpasse - Asanoya, E, 214188

Two weeks after Asahi rejoins the team, Noya finds himself starting to slip during practice. Missed receives, floor burns, the whole nine yards. But when Tanaka points out the possible cause, Noya's hard-pressed to believe him. There's no way someone as dopey yet implausibly-competent as Asahi could be the cause of all his distress. After all, Noya doesn't worry about much beyond the court, and he certainly doesn't hold grudges. Right? (Semi-AU) 

i wouldn’t normally put a wip on a rec list like this, but if you’ve exhausted all your other summer reading, this is hands down one of my favourite fics ever, and it’s got this deep ache of wonderful summer feelings all the way through it. the characters are so genuine and relatable, and there’s so much wonderful worldbuilding. a lot of thought and love has gone into this (and you have my solemn promise the author is still working on it! ;3)

QUICKIES: something to occupy a lunch break or a bus ride, or curl up in bed with

Best Friends by @mysecretfanmoments​ - Kuroken, E, 6307

Every evening they walk home together, Kuro smelling of salt and suntan lotion, Kenma’s hands sore from scooping ice cream all day, and it feels nice. Peaceful.

He’s glad Kuro came, after all.

((During the two weeks he spends manning his uncle's ice cream booth on the coast, Kenma decides that maybe he likes his best friend back, after all))

this story is all about that heat i mentioned, but it’s so much more than just a pwp. the writing is poetry, and every line is fraught with warmth and emotion, you can feel the urgency rolling off the screen.

the yeah yeah yeah song by @keptein - Bokuroo, T, 4681

And the light from the stage catches in the guy’s hair, so blond it shines white like a beacon, like one of the stars overhead. Tetsurou leans over and yells in his ear, hand on one solid shoulder, “Cool hair!”

 “You too!” the guy yells back, “I dig the sex hair look!”

i think this might be the fic that made me fall in love with this ship. it perfectly captures the feeling of summer festivals, the warm sense of belonging, of being out in the heat enjoying something together. it’s wonderfully laid back, and bokuto and kuroo are both so young and vivid, it’s addictive.

//

and it may be foolish to fall as i do - Bokuroo, E, 5604

There's a trampoline in the middle of the courtyard across from Kuroo's first class.

another story that just gorgeously captures this ship, and the feeling of being young and a bit reckless, not to mention the painfully relatable feeling of falling for a total stranger.

A Productive Summer Break - Ushioi, M, 9079

Ushijima and Oikawa try to improve their teamwork over summer break.

this story is just boiling over with barely repressed tension. it was such a captivating read, and had a fantastic mix of romance and pragmatism that made it really enjoyable.

Lifeguard Dude by @zanimez​ - Kurodai, E, 6945

It's spring break.

Everything is going great, until Daichi looks up and sees the hottest lifeguard he's ever seen in his life.

this is one of the fics that really sold me on this ship, it’s funny and sexy and all the supporting characters are brilliant

21 for asanoya?

#21 -  best friends sibling au

Asahi is hiding. 

He’s under no illusions about this. Some people say only cowards hide and they would be right and also looking for him at this very moment.

Asahi listens to Tanaka’s step-brother stomp his way past the bathroom door shouting “Asahi-san!” like Asahi is halfway down the street and in need of a warning before he gets tackled. Asahi backs towards the window wondering if he could successfully fit his big body through it and make it to the fence-line before Nishinoya realizes that he’s probably in the bathroom. He can text Tanaka once he’s safe. It’s a really good plan and Asahi is pretty sure it would never work in a million years.

He’s not hiding from Nishinoya because Nishinoya is loud, which he certainly is, or because he is cool, which he certainly is, or because he is attractive, which he certainly is. Asahi is hiding from Nishihoya because he may or may not have taken the last popsicle.

In his defense it had seemed like a good idea at the time. Tanaka had even told him it was okay, the traitor, and it probably would have been if Tanaka had thought to take the hit for him. The step-brothers would have squabbled and probably wrestled or something while Asahi would be worrying about his best friend or his best friend’s really attractive step-brother splitting their head open on the coffee table. Eventually one of them would have won and that would be that.

Instead, Tanaka had casually informed Nishinoya that Asahi had eaten the last one like it wasn’t the end of the world.

To be fair, Tanaka has no idea that Nishinoya is Asahi’s big shameful crush. (What kind of best friend develops an interest for their best friend’s sibling? Asahi, because he’s a terrible best friend.) If he had known he probably wouldn’t have done it. Tanaka can be thoughtless sometimes, usually when he’s amped up on caffeine, but he isn’t that cruel.

Now Asahi crowds himself against the wall and hopes desperately that Nishinoya won’t think to look in the bathroom. It’s a vain hope, he knows. Nishinoya isn’t stupid.

Someone knocks on the door and Asahi gives a muffled yelp when he should be staying quiet.

“Asahi-san?” Nishinoya calls through the door.

“Uh, I’m busy?” Asahi calls back, hoping that will save him.

It doesn’t.

“Ryuu says you ate my popsicle,” Nishinoya says, as if there isn’t the possibility that Asahi is currently pooping or something.

“Um?”

“I just wanted you to know that that’s totally fine,” Nishinoya continues as if Asahi hadn’t made any noise at all.

“Um?” Asahi repeats because he thinks he might have died.

“You can always eat my food,” Nishinoya says with finality, “just don’t tell Ryuu because I’ll never hear the end of it.”

“Um?” Asahi thinks he’s going to faint because he’s blushing so hard his face looks like a firetruck in the mirror. “Thanks?”

“Good!” Nishinoya shouts, as though he’s psyching himself up for something, and then with the sound of running feet he’s gone.

Asahi is hiding, at least until his face goes back to normal.

[candiedyamms]

41 with asanoya?!

This was so fun to write, thank you!!

Asanoya - “What are you doing in my house?” (based off this prompt list)

Something felt off the moment Asahi put his key into the door. It didn’t click the way it should, the usual resistance missing. Frowning, he pushed on the handle, only to have the door swing forward on its hinges and open.

That wasn’t right.

He stepped inside cautiously, closing the door behind him with a soft thud. The hairs on the back of his neck stood up, his skin prickling in apprehension. Had he locked the door when he left earlier? Asahi was certain he had. In fact, he remembered checking it twice before walking away, as he always did. There was no car in the driveway; his parents were still out, like they said they would be.

Then…the door was unlocked and opened by someone else.

Asahi’s hands were suddenly clammy, his mouth dry.

Walking as quietly as he could, he made his way down the hallway. He passed a table and light he knew he had left on earlier, now dark. Just as he reached out to turn it on a high, scraping noise reached his ears. He froze, heart beating frantically in his chest.

The sound came again, and Asahi’s hand curled around the empty vase on the table. He didn’t notice the way his hand trembled as his fingers dug into the porcelain, only that his feet stubbornly refused to move from their spot.

Its okay, he told himself.  Everything is fine. You’re overreacting.

Taking a breath, he started towards the source of the sound, his mind racing with all of the possibilities of what he’d find. An intruder, tall and dark, scarping a knife against the counters. A wild animals, its claws leaving deep gouges in the tile of the kitchen floor. Something worse, unearthly and indescribable, waiting.

By the time Asahi reached the door to the kitchen his knuckles were white. Steeling himself the best he could, he pushed open the door.

Something was in the kitchen. That’s all he had time to think of before he swung the vase held tightly in his hand, aiming for whatever it was that was blocking his path.

“Whoah!”

A blur of movement accompanied the shout, then a deeply familiar voice.

“Asahi! You could have hit me!”

Asahi opened his eyes, which somehow had been squeezed shut despite him not remembering when they had closed. Nishinoya was crouched in front of him, staring up with big eyes and what must be a shocked expression.

“Noya? What-“ Asahi started, then let his hand fall to his side as he realized what could have just happened. All the fight went out of him at once, and he slumped forward.

“Oh my god. Oh my god. I’m so sorry! I could have hit you.”

“That’s what I just said!” Noya said as he stood up fully, already grinning and reaching for Asahi. “What were you doing?”

Asahi groaned, trying to cover his face with his free hand as a bright blush of embarrassment crept up his cheeks.

“I thought - I thought someone was in the house. The door was unlocked and the light I left on this morning was off and…and I thought it was a burglar or a kidnapper or a ghost or.”

He stopped and shook his head, already unable to remember what his plan was. Certainly not this.

“A ghost?” Noya laughed, gently taking the vase from Asahi’s hand and placing it on the counter.  “What was this going to do against a ghost?”

Asahi mumbled a confession of not knowing what he was thinking, then suddenly took his hand away from his face and looked down at Noya.

“Wait. What are you doing in my house?”

Moving back to Asahi’s side, Noya  wrapped his arms around his middle and smiled.

“Well, we didn’t have practice today so I missed you. I just wanted to see what you were doing. Then you weren’t here so I thought I’d make lunch for when you got back.”

Asahi pulled Noya closer, his heart finally slowing down its frantic beating. This was no intruder or monster or ghost. It was just Noya. His bright and smiling Noya.

“You…you missed me? And were making lunch?” He buried his face into Noya’s shoulder and laughed weakly. “And I almost hit you. Oh my god.”

“Yeah! I would have been out cold, too. Good thing I’m quick. Hey, uh,” he looked over Asahi’s shoulder towards the stove and scrunched his nose up.  “I think I burned lunch.”

“I’ll fix it,” he replied, kissing him on the forehead, his heart full just at the thought of Noya wanting to cook for him. “Thank you for coming over. Thank you for making lunch. I missed you too, and, um, not just with the vase.”

[hinatassmile]

Ennotana

Thank you anon!!

who hogs the duvetEnnoshita~ Tanaka moves a lot in his sleep and winds up kicking it off anyways, so Ennoshita bundles himself in it so he won’t get cold in the middle of the night 

who texts/rings to check how their day is goingTanaka! And then he gets a “stop texting in class” reply, spams Ennoshita with “ :( “ in return, they both end up getting their phones confiscated, and Tanaka attempts to comfort an exasperated (but slightly amused) Ennoshita

who’s the most creative when it comes to giftsTanaka, he has pretty wild tastes about what makes a great gift (like one time Ennoshita off-handedly mentions he has a hard time keeping track of his change, and the next thing he knows Tanaka has presented him with a unique monkey piggy bank that keeps track of how much money you put in and screeches every time you do so; Tanaka justifies it with “well money is just monkey without the k”) 

who gets up first in the morningTanakaa, Ennoshita isn’t much of a morning person, and it takes a lot of gentle pushing and smooching to finally get him movin~ once he takes a shower though he’s good to go!

who suggests new things in bedI don’t really think of them as a sexually active couple but uhh…..Tanaka because he just already has a lot of knowledge about different techniques prior to the relationship 

who cries at moviesTanaka, Ennoshita’s too busy critiquing the screenplay (since he’s a movie director too, after all ;D) 

who gives unprompted massagesEnnoshita! He knows Tanaka’s muscles can get a bit sore after an intense match or practice, so he usually helps Tanaka wind down with a nice back massage~

who fusses over the other when they’re sickTanaka verbally fusses more, but Ennoshita worries internally just as much! They both do what the other one asks for to maximize their comfort and recovery speed~ 

who gets jealous easiestEnnoshita a little, because he knows how girl-obsessed Tanaka was before their relationship, and can be a little wary when he sees Tanaka having a prolonged, positive interaction with a female classmate (but Tanaka reassures him that he’s not the type of guy to change his mind so easily) 

who has the most embarrassing taste in musicTanaka maybe? I feel like Ennoshita listens to pop punk, indie rock, and electro swing

who collects something unusualIt’s not super unusual, but Tanaka collects hats! Especially beanies, since they help keep his head warm and go with a lot of different outfits

who takes the longest to get readyBoth of them are pretty fast at getting ready, although occasionally Ennoshita will have a moment of doubt about how flattering his outfit looks, but Tanaka always reassures him he looks great

who is the most tidy and organisedTanaka, not that Ennoshita is super messy, but sometimes he’ll leave a couple things lying around and say he’ll put them in their proper places later

who gets most excited about the holidaysThey both get pretty excited! Tanaka always looks forward to doing all sorts of fun activities with Ennoshita like ice skating, visiting hot springs, mini golf, and Ennoshita looks forward to all the delicious food they’ll discover and being able to relax with Tanaka 

who is the big spoon/little spoonTanaka is the big spoon, Ennoshita is the little spoon

who gets most competitive when playing games and/or sportsTanakaa, he gets fired up easy!! But, Ennoshita won’t let himself get walked all over, and can put up a fair fight~ 

who starts the most argumentsEnnoshita, but it’s more like small complaints that are also a form of teasing Tanaka, and Tanaka usually fake-pouts, tackles Ennoshita with kisses, and/or teases Ennoshita in response 

who suggests that they buy a petEnnoshita! But he wants a small animal so that it’s easier to take care of and carry around, so they end up getting a pomeranian (which ends up having its own little seat next to Ennoshita’s director chair) 

what couple traditions they haveVideo-taping each other’s reactions when opening gifts; going to the cherry blossom viewing during the spring; buying each other’s favorite pastries for Valentine’s day; going to every premiere of Ennoshita’s films; treating themselves to a buffet after winning a match; building a sculpture of their pomeranian when it snows (it usually ends up looking like a mutant blob but..they try…) 

what tv shows they watch togetherMythBusters, How It’s Made, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad

what other couple they hang out withAsaNoya, DaiSuga, Narita/Kinoshita, KiyoYachi 

how they spend time together as a coupleMaking home videos; eating a huge bowl of popcorn while watching TV; cooking meals for each other; spending an entire night video gaming and sleeping until 2 p.m. the next day; walking the dog together; coming up with “a million dollars but…” scenarios; brainstorming possible movie plots; sitting in cafes with their legs casually interlaced under the table

who made the first moveTanaka~ it got to a point where he felt like he would burst if he had to keep holding in his feelings, so one day after school Tanaka had Ennoshita meet him alone behind the school and confessed in a rush 

who brings flowers homeTanaka brings Ennoshita pudding cups, and Ennoshita brings Tanaka melonpan 

who is the best cookThey’re both pretty good cooks so they usually take shifts making food~ 

Send me a ship!

AsaNoya for number 5?

This got a little…deep. I hope it’s okay! Uh, warning for implied homophobia, I guess?

It’s a quiet, lonely night at home, and Yuu is startled by the broken sound of the doorbell, especially since he’s not expecting anyone. His parents have gone away for the weekend, to visit relatives, and had left him behind so he wouldn’t miss any practices. There’s a timid knock on the door just after, like whoever it is has convinced themselves to knock but really doesn’t want anyone to actually hear it. Luckily Yuu doesn’t miss it, can hear it perfectly clearly from his spot on the way to the stairs, and he approaches the door near silently.

He peeks out before he opens the door, remembering his mother’s words about being aware of strangers while they’re away. It’s not a stranger on his doorstep, not someone selling vacuums or cookies, but a red eyed, wet faced Asahi, shoulders still just barely trembling, one hand still outstretched toward the door. He starts to turn away, and Yuu fumbles to get the lock open before he can leave. Asahi freezes half turned as he hears the door click open, and Yuu hears a sniffle, sees the hasty way that Asahi wipes at his face before he turns and pastes on a wobbly smile.

“Hey.” Yuu barely manages to nod a hello before Asahi’s talking again, quickly like he needs to get out what he wants to say before he chickens out. “Sorry, but I kinda ran away from home so let me stay over tonight?”

He cringes and freezes, eyes closed, as he waits for Yuu’s answer, like Yuu could possibly say no to him. “Yeah, come in.” He steps aside to let Asahi in and then closes the door. He watches Asahi twist his fingers together for a minute before he wanders off to the kitchen to get them each a bottled water, then leads the way upstairs to his bedroom. “Something happen?”

Asahi hums an affirmative, but doesn’t answer until they’re in Yuu’s room, Asahi sitting with his back against the bed as Yuu flops down over it instead. Asahi stares up at the ceiling and rolls the bottle of water between his palms as he talks. “I told my parents that I think I’m gay.” He looks back down and shakes his head. “They didn’t take it very well.”

And then Asahi is sniffling again, though it’s covered a little by the sound of the crinkling plastic bottle clutched tightly in Asahi’s hands, and Yuu is scooting over before he even completely processes the thought. He sits on the edge of the bed, a leg on either side of Asahi’s body, and very gently pulls the hair tie out of Asahi’s hair so he can run his fingers through it. “I’m sorry.”

There’s a weak sort of hum, and then Asahi clears his throat. “I’d have gone somewhere else but they’re all busy today and I thought maybe you wouldn’t mind?”

He sounds uncertain, like he thinks maybe he could’ve been wrong, that he’s just bothering Yuu, and like he’s already gearing himself up to be told to go away. “Of course I don’t.” Asahi hides his face against Yuu’s knee, sniffles into the fabric of his sweatpants. Yuu hums for a bit while he cards his fingers through Asahi’s hair, trying his best to be calm and comforting. “Hey. Come up here?”

“Kay.” Asahi moves away enough for Yuu to scoot back on the bed, propping himself against the pillows at the head of the bed, patting his chest when Asahi looks at him questioningly.

They don’t talk again until they’re settled, Asahi’s head pillowed on Yuu’s chest, arms wrapped tight around his waist. Yuu brushes Asahi’s hair out of his face and continues to run his fingers through it as Asahi relaxes against him, and Yuu talks in a quiet voice. “They might not ever be okay with it, I’m not going to tell you they will, or that they’ll magically see the light. But that’s their problem and not yours. You’re perfect the way you are, whether anyone else likes it or not. And it might not be okay right away, but it will be eventually. And I’ll be here the whole time, and so will the rest of the team, no matter what.”

Asahi snuffles into Yuu’s shirt, and he can feel the wetness from the tears, not that he minds. Asahi’s voice is worn and a little broken when he finally responds. “Thank you.”

And Yuu believes what he said, knows that Asahi will be fine no matter what, with people around him who care, even if they aren’t necessarily the people who should. If Asahi’s family wants to deny him the love he deserves, then Yuu will make sure he gets it from other people instead. Even if Yuu has to do it all on his own, he’ll make sure that Asahi knows he’s loved and wanted and absolutely perfect just the way he is.

For the fanfiction questions thing: 1, 3, 8, 10, 16, 18, 22, 27, 31, 36, 40, 44, 46, 48, 50 and 51~

!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!!!!???!!!!!!!!!

okay now the actual words:

1. What was the first fandom you got involved in?

[also answered here]

Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus. It still sneaks up and slaps me in the face sometimes. Though I hated the ending of the last book but let’s not go there

3. What is the best fandom you’ve ever been involved in?

I mean??? I love the Boueibu fandom, because I feel like I know everyone (even if I don’t know everyone) and it’s nice seeing other people’s fandom things and being like ah, yes, you’re the one who - . And then people recognize you’re own fandom things and you’re just like????? But the fandom also isn’t is-anyone-even-home small *cough* starmyu *cough*.

So yeah I really like the Boueibu fandom kudos to you.

(Also a shout out to the Haikyuu!! fandom for their love of rarepairs. Or maybe that’s just me and who I happen to follow, lol.)

8. How did you get involved in your latest fandom?

What even is… my latest fandom??? The latest fandom I’m actually active in is Boueibu. I actually started watching Boueibu right after watching Hamatora because it was around the time everyone was comparing Kinshirou and Art, so that was like, half of what was making up the Hamatora tag. Then I watched the PV and went hiroshi kamiya and whoa look at that I’m on episode five already where did the time go? (Not even because I’m particularly fond of Hiroshi Kamiya (though I am), but because I’m always oddly proud of myself when I recognize voice actors? Idk why.) I got really into the actual fandom after reading some Enkin fics and also falling in love with the Student Council. The first fic I wrote for the fandom was actually for an exchange.

My latest fandom in general is Mystic Messenger. I’d been seeing stuff pop up for it for a while and then it showed up in my recommended apps on Google Play and I just?? What the hell, why not. Let’s do this. And here I am (though I’ve only finished Yoosung’s route so far ;;;; )

10.  Is there a fandom you read fic from but don’t write in?

Yes, very much yes. I’ve read fic for so many fandoms but have only gotten around to writing for 4 of them (5 if you include PJO but I haven’t written for it since I’ve been on AO3). The ones I can think of now are Daiya No A, Joker Game, All for the Game (book series), Kuroko no Basuke, Prince of Stride, Ao no Exorcist, Oofuri, Tsuritama…

16. Are their any popular ships in your fandom which you dislike?

From Haikyuu, I’m not the biggest fan of KuroKen and Kenhina (is Kenhina popular? I don’t even know at this point). And… Asanoya, I guess? It’s not that I necessarily dislike these three as much as I’m just meh about them.

There aren’t any ships that I’ve come across that I actually dislike from Boueibu, and the ones I’m meh about aren’t really popular anyway? So.

And Rintori from Free!. Idk why it just never clicked with me??

18. What ship have you written the most about?

Tsukkikage (hq!!), apparently, though I mostly write about platonic relationships, it seems like.

22. Is there anything you regret writing?

[also answered here]

If I posted it, I don’t regret writing it. I might not necessarily like some of my old writing, but I don’t regret it. However, there are some things I’ve written down or typed out and immediately deleted because hell no this will not see the light of day not on my watch why did I even think to put those words together what was I - 

27. What do you hate more: Coming up with titles or writing summaries?

[also answered here]

Coming up with titles. I love writing cute little (or heartbreaking) summaries, but titles? No thanks. It’s like I’m pulling words out of a jar, except the jar is locked, poisonous, and on fire. (Though I usually end up liking my titles, anyway.)

31. What’s the nicest thing someone has ever said about your writing?

[also answered here]

Literally anytime?? Someone comments?? I get really jittery and excited because wow someone wanted to say something about what I wrote??

While the last ask has my favorite comment, I’m going to compile some of the nicest things people have said about my writing just because it makes me happy and I can:

“goddd your writing is so beautiful i’m so jealous” - nardaviel

“and your writing is amazing, it does a beautiful job of evoking the quiet that theyre both having to deal with. i think the present tense is part of the effect because it makes it seem less like a recounting of events (which by necessity is an act of communication, and this whole thing is about an inability to communicate) and more like we’re experiencing these things alongside atsushi. but i think there’s more going on than just the choice of tense.. maybe part of it has something to do with all the parentheticals at the ends of scenes…? they seem like quiet little asides, thoughts that don’t make it out into the main narrative the same way thoughts aren’t making it out of atsushi’s head 3 tbh i don’t really know, i’m just thinking aloud because i’m trying to learn from your talent a;ljsd” - @nardaviel

“Your style is so pretty as always, I loved the descriptions and how you portrayed the characters’ thoughts and perceptions of the world around.” - you, actually

“I know that I’m gonna read this many times over in the future…. I need a moment.” - Rudxinna

“Kudos to you for keeping everyone so nicely in character, for fleshing them out so well as they age, and for showing just enough of each scene.” - chromyrose

“I loved this. I cried and laughed while reading it.” - Pechat

“You really have a gift for zeroing on these quiet significant moments.” - odoridango

“How is everything you write so amazing and perfect??” - odoridango [Honestly everything odoridango has ever commented makes my heart soar]

[I am currently basking in happiness. Thank you for giving me the excuse.]

36. What’s your favourite genre to write?

[also answered here]

Slice of Life, assuming that counts. I love the atmosphere.

40. What do you struggle the most with in your writing?

everything Plot, in general. Trying to connect everything into a coherent storyline. I find it easy with vignettes when you can get away with connecting them with subtleties or repeating lines, but having one event leading into the next without awkward breaks is a struggle. (Which is probably why I mostly stick with oneshots.) I also struggle with writing the beginning. I usually start in the middle of the fic, which will sometimes end up being the beginning anyway, orz.

44. What ship do you feel needs more attention?

[also answered here]

Just. All the platonic ships. All of them. I love platonic ships so much???? Give me all the friendship I will take it gladly.

From Boueibu, the third year OT4, as well as Kinatsuen and AkoIoRyuu (though I don’t actually ship the latter that much.) I feel like people really like them but there still isn’t that much content for them? though the only romantic ship i’ve really written is enatsu so i shouldn’t be talking

For Haikyuu!!, I’m especially fond of TsukkiKage and KuroKage, so. Also Yachi ships. They are adorable.

For Free!, I still miss reiharu, orz. I should write more for them. Other people should write more for them. More reiharu for the soul. Also Gou/Haru friendship??? It just occurred to me now but more Gou/Haru friendship would be amazing.

46. If someone was to read one of your fanfics, which fic would you recommend to them and why?

Hmmmm, I’d probably recommend an endless start of april, which is a KuniKage fic from hq summer hols. I really like the atmosphere, and how I formatted the fic. I also managed to stuff karasuno first year friendship in there. But mostly, I had a lot of fun writing it, and I think it shows. I’m overall really proud of it. (I’m also still really fond of fairy lights, lol).

48. Do you leave reviews when you read fanfiction? Why/Why not?

I try my best to leave reviews, especially when the fic made me really happy and/or really emotional. A comment can make my day, so I try to leave as many as possible. (Though I am guilty of not following through on this). I try my best to be detailed, but most of the time they end up just being really incoherent, orz.

50. How did you get into reading and/or writing fanfiction?

I think it started when I stumbled across a Lazel (PJO/HoO) fic over google search?? Then I read all the obligatory high school and harry potter AUs for PJO and then the tear jerkers and I was totally hooked?? And of course the first thing I wrote was for a rarepair, lol. After that I really wanted more platonic Jasico content, as well as a Nico-centric AU, so they were some of the first things I wrote about.

When I started really really wanting to write fanfiction, though, was after reading the fic Catch a Falling Star (free fandom come cry with me). It kinda became my fic writer’s dream to write a long one-shot like that (still kind of is, and is probably why I fell in love with long one-shots in the first place), and the imaginary friends concept has always stuck with me. That fic inspired me a lot, along with a few others. I’m still stumbling across fics where I go I want to write something like that, but that was definitely the start of it.

And here I am now, lol.

51. Rant or Gush about one thing you love or hate in the world of fanfiction! Go!

[also answered here]

For the other “also answered” ones, I wrote something new(ish, in some cases), but I’m gonna copy paste this one bc I’m not sure what else I want to gush about:

I hate fanfiction’s reputation????? A lot???? Like I’ve seen/read my fair share of horrible fanfiction (have more than likely written some) and, yeah, some of it’s just pointless fluff or smut or the like but???? There’s also some really really really meaningful stuff out there??? And even those that don’t have some life-changing meaning mean a lot regardless - there are fanfics that have lifted my spirits and honest to goodness probably saved me, ones that have made me laugh so ridiculously hard I’ve woken someone up and ones that have made me cry at 3 AM wondering how something this beautiful graced my eyes??? Like???? It might not interest you but give it a chance, or at least keep any trash to yourself (unless it’s like, legitimate trash, but. That’s a very fine line you’re walking. A very fine line.)

And because I don’t want to end on a hateful note:

I love the little communities fanfiction builds???? Especially in smaller fandoms, or in rarepair fandoms (for lack of a better word). I love talking to other writers when I can and seeing how proud they are and getting little comments and I just?? Fanfiction communities are actually great.

And once more for good measure: !?!?!??!?!?!?!?!!!!???!!!!!!!!! thank you!!!!!

Daisuga for the ship thingy if that's still going on? :33

;Thank you anon!!

who hogs the duvetSuga; Daichi learns to buy some warm pajamas and deal with it because Suga’s iron grip on the duvet even while sleeping is insane 

who texts/rings to check how their day is goingDaichi! Suga’s always floating around somewhere in his mind so when he has a moment he’ll send a quick “hey! what’s up?” and sometimes Suga will call him in the evening to talk about something funny that’d happened and just to hear his voice~ 

who’s the most creative when it comes to giftsSugaa, he’s a highly skilled gift giver, although honestly Daichi would appreciate anything Suga gave him (one time Suga gifted him an avocado as a joke, and Daichi stared at it for a moment, then gave him a blinding smile and said “Suga! I love avocadoes, thank you!!” Suga felt like somehow, he was the one tricked) 

who gets up first in the morningIt varies, and if one of them wakes up the other one naturally wakes up too~ If Suga’s awake first, he likes to trace patterns on Daichi’s skin and appreciate his muscles, and if Daichi wakes up first, he watches Suga’s quiet breathing and wonders how it’s possible to be so beautiful 

who suggests new things in bedSugaa, he has a lot of fun with these kinds of things, and he likes how flustered Daichi gets when he suggests “should we try ***** and maybe some of ******?” (”S-Suga you can’t just say those things out loud!! It’s bad for my heart” – Daichi) 

who cries at moviesThey both do~ such softies at heart! 

who gives unprompted massagesDaichi, although Suga’s a bit ticklish so they don’t always go smoothly! Usually Suga gives Daichi a massage afterwards as well

who fusses over the other when they’re sickThey both fuss over each other a lot! They do their best to stay at each other’s side and provide as much comfort as possible; sometimes Daichi will be sitting on the floor with his back against the wall by Suga’s head, and they’ll be holding hands as Suga drifts off into a feverish sleep and Daichi ends up falling asleep in that position; sometimes Suga will be resting his head on the side of the bed as he listens to Daichi’s congested breathing, and he’ll end up falling asleep in that position~ 

who gets jealous easiestSuga a little, because Daichi’s pretty popular with girls and sometimes will end up getting confessed to; but Daichi reassures Suga that he wouldn’t want to be with anyone else for the rest of his life, and Suga’s litte green monster is squashed 

who has the most embarrassing taste in musicDaichi likes old-timey, traditional Japanese music, and Suga listens to movie soundtracks, indie rock, and electro swing 

who collects something unusualIt’s not super unusual, but Suga likes mint Tic Tacs and has a lot of packs stacked on his desk since he goes through one pretty quickly~ 

who takes the longest to get readyThey’re both pretty quick! When it comes to formal clothes, Daichi sometimes needs a little help with his tie 

who is the most tidy and organisedThey’re both pretty tidy, although Suga’s more likely to make a small mess and say he’ll clean it up later, while Daichi just cleans up after himself right away 

who gets most excited about the holidaysSuga! He loves the holidays a lot, and he likes being able to spend time with Daichi and going to new places and exploring~ Daichi loves being able to spend more time with Suga and likes seeing him so excited, but he gets tired out quicker 

who is the big spoon/little spoonSuga is the little spoon, Daichi is the big spoon!

who gets most competitive when playing games and/or sportsThey’re both really competitive!! When it comes to smack-talking the opponent though Suga has the upper hand, and if that opponent is Daichi, occassionally he loses his spirit to fight since Suga’s words can dig a little deep (Suga then spends the next five minutes attempting to revive Daichi, who remains unresponsive until Suga says “Daichiii, you know I love you a lot right? It’s just a silly competition!” and then Daichi sniffs and gives a gruff “I-I love you too”)

who starts the most argumentsSuga, but it’s not serious arguing, sometimes he just likes giving Daichi a hard time! Daichi eventually learns to play along or banter back or, if he’s really feeling daring, will pin Suga against a wall, stare right into his eyes, and say “If you’re trying to make me force you to stop talking, then I will” (he usually gets embarrassed afterwards, but Suga loves it) 

who suggests that they buy a petNeither of them, they don’t feel like they’d be around the house often enough to properly take care of one, and they also like being able to travel and go wherever they want freely!

what couple traditions they haveGoing to a hot springs during winter break; trying out new recipes on Fridays; hiking to a nearby hill to watch the fireworks during New Years and sharing a kiss under the stars; setting up their own little bamboo plant for Tanabata and eating watermelon after hanging their wishes; wearing matching yukata during festivals; taking polaroids of themselves on their birthdays and pinning them to a cork board (as more time passes, it’s interesting seeing how much they change physically) 

what tv shows they watch togetherModern Family, Parks and Rec, Bob’s Burgers, Breaking Bad

what other couple they hang out withAsaNoya, KiyoYachi, KageHina, EnnoTana 

how they spend time together as a coupleWatching videos of opponents’ games and observing their patterns; cooking together (Suga has an apron that says “WARNING: Hot Stuff Coming Through” and Daichi’s says “The Grillfather”); going for early morning jogs when the grass is still wet with dew; taking shifts driving during long car rides and smiling fondly at the other one sleeping in the passenger seat; spending a lot of time in gift shops finding souvenirs for their family members and friends; holding hands and touching foreheads as they fall asleep listening to each other’s breathing 

who made the first moveDaichi! They were the last ones cleaning up the gym after practice and Daichi’s mind suddenly told him “do it, do it now” and he found himself blurting “Suga, would you go out with me?!” The look of surprise on Suga’s face almost made Daichi’s heart stop because he thought it meant Suga was going to say no, but instead Suga said, “Did you finally figure out I was fliriting with you for the past month?” 

who brings flowers homeDaichii, Suga calls him a sap for doing so but it makes him happy~ 

who is the best cookThey’re both good cooks~ sometimes they’ll end up hosting dinners for the team at their place and everyone always raves about their food!

Send me a ship!  no more please!
