Hi! Don’t apologise! I live for these kinds of anons!  I am excited to get this underway so without further ado, here is my HC about Ethan and Nicolette’s future etc... 1. Does ethan and nic get married?

Yes, Ethan and Nicolette get married. Ethan pops the question after two years of being together offically and when she is just starting her fellowship. Nic says yes, of course. 

2. Do they have kid(s)? If yes how many? Name(s) if possible

Yes, they do. Nicolette and Ethan have four kids. Twins, Dolores and Hudson and then another son, Jonah and then their youngest daughter, Harmony.  You can read about them here

3. Does ethan write a second book?

He does, but it’s co-written with Nicolette. They publish it on their fifth wedding anniversary. 

4. Does nic surpass ethan and take over diagnostic team?

Yes, she does. She’s only Head of Diagnostics for a couple years before she becomes pregnant with the twins so Jackie takes over.

5. Do they stay in boston or move out of Boston

They move. Ethan moves with Nicolette when she gets a prestigious position to work at one of the top hospitals in the country and Ethan goes because he loves her and he wants to see her grow in her own career without holding her back in any way.

6. How close is ethan with nic's parents

Well, I’m still getting to that considering I still need to finish the family reunion mini-series I’m in the process of getting back to writing about lol but, in the end? Yes. Ethan is very close to Nic’s parents. Particularly Nicolette’s mother who he feels is like the mother he never had and he’s eternally grateful for Nicolette for that.

7. How does he propose if they ever get married?

I wrote this in a particular writing challenge and it’s basically the same. Ethan proposes in front of Edenbrook because that is where they first met and it’s the place where he saw how kind-hearted, compassionate and determined Nicolette is and Edenbrook will hold a special place in Ethan’s heart just for that reason alone.

8. Do they stay in same place of ethan's or buy a new house?

No to the staying at Ethan’s place and yes to the buying a new house. They buy a house together and they do after just getting married. They move outside of the city and live in the suburbs (close enough to Edenbrook that it doesn’t take them like an hour to get to work haha) for a while before they move across the country so Nicolette can make a name for herself in the medical field which Ethan was happy to do.

9. Does tobias and ethan become frnds again(jn your universe as its still goin in canon😂)

Hmm...tbh, I think they might? Tobias admires the change in Ethan since Nicolette has into his life. And Ethan admires Tobias’ tenacity and confidence but they’ll always be that little voice in Ethan’s head saying ‘is he really my friend?’ and when he voices it to Nicolette she just rolls her eyes and tells him to get over it 😂 He’s got a family now. He has more important things to worry about lol

10. And your backstory on nick's frnds?

Hmm... she had a few friends in high school which she stayed in contact with during college but slowly lost contact since all of them wanted to settle down and have kids (too early in Nicolette’s mind) and one best friend in medical school which she sees on occasion when she goes back to California to visit her family but since being so busy with Edenbrook she’s kinda got new ones now and their names are Sienna (her best friend), Elijah, Aurora, Jackie and Bryce.

11. Will louise stay in their life?  If u have chosen to forgive her?

In my playthrough, I chose for Ethan to forgive Louise because everyone deserves a second chance (even though she’s shady af) but in my HC, Ethan and Louise don’t have a relationship. Ethan’s wiped his hands of her and he sees Nicolette’s mother as more of his maternal figure and that’s all he cares about. 

12. Your predictions on oh3? And do u want a book 4? I still dont know how i am going to get over dr husband if book 3 is the last one😂

Hmm... my predictions of OH3... 

Well, considering we are up to chapter 7 I’d say that:

Tobias will definitely turn on the team, even though we went out for that lunch, I have a feeling that Tobias is a double agent and is reporting to Bloom. 

Bryce will end up killing someone or at least second-guess himself all the time and grow out of his obnoxious arrogance and become a better doctor and surgeon for it (I want him to succeed bc i love him).

Bloom will get Ethan fired. 

Bloom will definitely do something illegal and that will get him in the shit and MC will have to testify against him.

Everyone will pass their boards....maybe Sienna (or she might not considering how anxious she is about it) will but I have a feeling that she’ll transfer specialities to pediatrics considering she spends most of her time there. 

The the book will either end with all MC’s friends going off to different hospitals oooor a massive cliffhanger that will solidify a OH4 because pb likes the draaammmaaaaa.

I reaaalllly hope we get OH4 because I love this series so much and I don’t want it to end because the OH gang are one of my faves (and Ethan, duh lol) but yeah, with how OOC the characters are at the moment, I don’t see a OH4 on the horizon...yet...and that makes me really sad. If there is no, OH4 or at least Open Heart becoming the new TRR then I might forget about Choices altogether bc I’m losing interest. With pb abandoning RoD and Hero and all the others...PB’s just digging themselves a whole they won’t come out of. 

I don't know how I’ll deal with no more OH or Ethan either if we don’t get OH4. I’ll probs be depressed for a while but at least I have fanfic to keep me happy haha

13. Ship name for ethan and nic?😁🤩

Omg! I have no idea 😂 Nicohan? Maybe? Someone make one up! haha.

Thank you so much for this ask, anon! I had fun! Thank you for sticking with my stories! It means a lot 💕

I’ve just finished the Haikyuu!! anime and I’m full of feeeeeeeelings and its all @lunarflares and @rageprufrock‘s faults and I need to babble, so SPOILERS for all the anime under the cut

GENERAL THINGS I LOVE

They are all such DUMB BOYS and the show and everyone agrees with you, just lol yes they are so DUMB isn’t it wonderful and IT IS. Wonderful dumb volleyball idiots. 

There is no ‘Evil Team’ which deserves to be defeated! All the teams have their own reasons for playing, they all have different styles of playing, they all want to win, and that’s all okay! There isn’t a single character who deliberately aims to injure the opposing players! Wow!!

All the setters are so pretty. 

It’s very very much about the teams, not beating individual aces, even Shirotorizawa whose style is BUILT around the unbeatable ace - that’s the team’s style. 

They are all friends!! (Except Oikawa > Kageyama lol) but there is so much of the different teams helping and supporting each other its great!

TEAMS I LOVE

KARASUNO!! Dumb murder of mobbing crows from the concrete <3 I mean I’m boring I do tend to love the protagonist team but I love Karasuno SO much. 

I love that their all dumb friends and support each other and their academic idiot volleyball geniuses and get snacks after practice together and everything. 

I love that they work super super hard and lose SO MUCH so by the end of season three their victory feels well and truly earned. There’s very little ‘I have honed this amazing technique in isolation and will now pull it out for the first time in an official match and shock my own teammates’. When that kinda thing does happen it’s usually because Hinata has misunderstood simple instructions and done something impossible XD

I love that for long stretches of time Hinata isn’t even in the match and that’s okay because its the TEAM who are the protagonists they all have amazing stories and victories. 

I love in the second season when they started to get a reputation and they walk into the sports centre and everyone is murmuring about how amazing they are and they are still ULTRA EMBARASSING STUPID DORKS.

Sawamura: Solid dependable captain type who you doesn’t really stand out but when he’s gone BOY do you notice!! He’s so good, he’s such a good boy, he’s so good at keeping these idiots pointing in the same direction and happy and healthy and a TEAM. 

Sugawara: I fell in the love with him when he made that awful face as he slammed the gym doors on Hinata and Kageyama. C: He’s so mature and gracious and cedes his place as official setter to a genius first year because it is the right thing for the team, and of course it’s difficult and he struggles with it but he copes and goes out of his way to hammer basic social interaction into Kageyama’s dumb head. (Contrast: Oikawa :D)  But he’s not just forgotten! And every time he’s on the court it’s a game changer and he’s amazing and I’m always SO HAPPY when the three third years are playing together!!!

Asahi: Big scary fraidy cat anxious ace <3 <3 so big. so soft. 

Tanaka: Boring wannabe punk character destined to be overshadowed.... was my first reaction but NO he is so ridiculous and so good and a really, really strong player in his own right (I wish I had quarter of his mental toughness) and he cares SO MUCH about all his team and every time he makes a scary face I cackle especially when Daichi immediately tells him to stop it.

Nishinoya: He keeps sneaky up on me and stabbing me with how awesome he is - just so super confident and dependable 

Ennoshita: interchangeable forgettable second year comes out of nowhere and hits you in the feels. Also wow they are actually doing succession planning? Awesome!

Hinata: bouncy dumb ball of scary overpowering sunshine. I really love his evolution, for refusing to stick to what works 90% of the time and for taking control - I love that the big emotional moment was Hinata trusting Kageyama enough to jump with his eyes closed but that wasn’t enough, he wanted to have control as well, and that caused them to fall out but then they rebuilt their trust stronger as EQUAL PARTNERS. 

Kageyama: awkward boy. Everytime he thanks another team member and apologises or asks for feedback on a toss I clap because baby well done you have grown so much. 

Tsukishima: I didn’t much like him at first - boring obligatory bully character - but now I WILL FIGHT FOR HIM omg such a precious string bean omg his backstory with his brother is so painfully realistic and the way he holds himself back from fully engaging because it will just hurt more that way when you loose OUCH THAT IS HITTING WAY TOO CLOSE TO HOME SHOW THANK YOU but in season three when he just. goes for it. wow. (and his brother is adorable and ridiculous)

Yamaguchi: Boring minion bully NO amazing precious friend who works so hard and I think his serve in the first Seijoh game was the most stressful, painful moment in the series, even more than Hinata’s failed match point and then his five points in the second game just *Flails hands*

Shimizu: Amazing. Wonderful. I love that she is treated as just as important a member of the team, that she is just as committed as the other third years, I love that she recruits her tiny manager and just OPENS up and smiles and chats with her and is such a good friend. 

Yachi: Tiny lesbian! Tiny anxious nerd! Who is so scared and grows so much and who makes fantastic posters which ENABLE THE CLUB TO ACTUALLY DO STUFF. 

Sensei and Coach: So good and SO MARRIED it’s not just me who thinks that right? 

SEIJOH!!! oh man I am still so sad. I’m so happy for Karasuno but so sad Seijoh who never got to go to the nationals and more importantly didn’t get to beat Shiratorizawa. 

I love that they’re the main antagonist team for the first half of the series but they are the team of zero geniuses and TEAMWORK and TRUSTING EACH OTHER and BRINGING OUT THE BEST IN EACH OTHER. 

When they stole Oikawa’s catch phrase from him I made a literal cooing noise it was embarrassing. 

Like, their first match they made me want Seijoh to win which is awesome, and then their second match I STILL wanted Seijoh to win despite also wanting Karasuno to win, it’s so hard. 

I love Sugawara in part for his grace in dealing with his genius kouhai but I love Oikawa for THE EXACT OPPOSITE REASON (lets be honest I’d be Oikawa but I’d cope with it even less well and probably just go away and cry.)

I love that he’s a brat and childish and self-centred and is smug and gloats horribly and has a disgusting personality but that’s he's also empathetic and strives to bring out the best in others, that he developed those skills because they would get him what he wanted (victory) not out of an innate selflessness but that his faith and trust in his team are no less real for that.  I love that he is not a genius but is someone geniuses admire/ are scared of. 

I love that is so elegant and pretty when he plays and yet pulls them most awful faces. 

I love he was the only one we didn’t see cry at the end of the second Seijoh match and gave Iwa-chan the thump across his shoulders. 

I love his and Iwa-chan’s relationship (I’ve heard Iwa-chan so much I cannot now remember Iwa-chan’s real name) I love that Iwa-chan was the one to stop him from self-destructing when he went to hit baby Kageyama (ouch!!) and basically bullied him into being a better person and gave him his life philosophy. I love that Oikawa seemed to decide to deal with all his negative feelings towards Kageyama by just being as childish as possible towards him.

I ADORE him turning up to watch the final match and wanting neither of them to win and refusing to stay to watch the award ceremony, but still kind of begrudgingly claiming 

I HOPE HE AND IWA CHAN GO ON TO PLAY LOTS OF VOLLEYBALL AND HE GETS A CHANCE TO DEFEAT USHIWAKA IN A MATCH I just really want him to be able to defeat Ushiwaka in a match okay :(

ALL THE TOKYO TEAMS I love them all 

Bullshit things I now want

I’m having flashbacks to Prince of Tennis but now I really want a good Warring States era AU urghhhhh

That dumb anime only PoT arc where every single team went to that Japan training camp? I want that, I want every single team being dorks. 

For some reason I really want an AU where Oikawa (and Iwa-chan) did go to Shirtorizawa and Oikawa and their demon coach basically made war on each other for three years because wow clash of styles it would be a complete disaster and amazing. 

Final thing is, I really really can’t ship Kageyama and Hinata? I look at all the fic for them and every summary includes the bit Kageyama and/or Hinata realises they FEEL something for their team mate and I just go NOPE, too OOC. I literally cannot imagine either of them having enough braincells/self-awareness to notice anything outside volleyball.

I have this mental imagine of Kageyama and Hinata rolling all over the floor tangled up together and screaming at each other and the rest of the team is looking sidelong at Sugawara and he glares back at them to say “I know I’m the team Mum but I draw the line at explaining to my kouhai why they get tingly feelings in their pants when they do this.”

And because Sugawara won’t explain their emotions to them they never figure it out. 

#haikyuu!! #haikyu #karasuno #seijoh #oikawa #because I somehow ended up talking about him the most
