Trick or Treat? More like Trick and Treat!

A/N: Cutest little drabble idea came to mind and I couldn't help but to write it. Just in time for Halloween and @eiyun 's Spooky Sports Collab! Thank you for such a cool collab idea 😊 Also have to thank @prettyiwa for sparking this newfound love for Mochi.

Word Count: 900

Warnings: F!Reader who dresses up as Black Widow from the Avengers. F!Reader is also a fellow second year and is friends with Kuramochi and Miyuki.

"Hurry up slow pokes! We have to hurry up before all of the good candy is gone." Kuramochi complains, clearly walking ahead of the group causing the Iron Man to chuckle.

"Of course no one is going to be as fast as you. I'm sure you could run circles around Sawamura." Miyuki speaks up, making sure to get a rise out of Thor Sawamura, who desperately wanted to be Iron Man and is struggling with his lighter and longer locks.

"I can beat you Kuramochi-senpai! I run with tires all day. You're on!" Sawamura yells, causing several trick or treaters to look in the superhero's direction. You run a hand through your short copper wig as you glare at Miyuki.

"Why would you antagonize him? You know he won't back down from a challenge."

"Well Black Widow, it is called Mischief Night after all." He smirks and you shake your head. You two were in your own little world as Hawkeye Haruichi and Loki Furuya try to get Sawamura to calm down.

"I should have never agreed to do this with you. Why did you even ask me to come to this? Because you couldn't babysit them yourself?" You sass, questioning Miyuki. His eyes light up with a glint of mischief as his smirk grew three sizes like the Grinch's.

"Nope, it's not that." He says, intentionally stopping short. You wait for him to continue but he doesn't.

Suddenly Mochi appears at your side as he places a gentle, green hand on your shoulder. You look to study his face and note that his playful smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes.

"Is he bothering you? Or is he just being himself?" He asks with a slightly annoyed tone in his voice, very protective with his big Hulk build.

"Just being himself. All good Kuramochi. Now let's get some candy!" You cheer before running off so the guys could come catch up to you.

For the rest of the night, you all went from house to house, receiving delicious treats and praise for your themed group outfits. At the end, you all gather in Miyuki's room to showcase your spoils, offering laughs and trades for your favorites. Things slowly start to wind down and you need to head back to your place.

"Alright guys I think I have to call it a night. It was fun!" You smile, starting to gather your things. The group goes eerily quiet and it takes you a few seconds to notice. Turning around, you see Kuramochi stand up.

"It's late and dark out, so I'll walk you back." He offers kindly, despite his eyes twitching as he no doubt desperately wants to stop Miyuki and Sawamura from giggling but you pay it no mind.

"That would be great, thanks!" You chirp happily before waiving by the rest of your friends. Kuramochi offers a chill goodbye to the group and Sawamura can't help himself.

"Good luck Kuramochi-senpai! Keeping her safe on the walk home I mean!" Then Miyuki joins in. "Yes make sure you don't drop any candy, especially kisses." It takes every ounce of self-restraint for Kuramochi to not kill his best friends.

"We won't! They're my favorite after all." You reply innocently, causing the guys to bust out laughing. Before you can even ask, Kuramochi takes your hand in his and kindly pulls you out the door, eager to have the cool nighttime air on his flushed skin.

Going into the night, you start on the path to your place hands still intertwined. It was peacefully quiet and you always liked Kuramochi's company. He could be a little rough around the edges but he was always sweet and caring at his core. You feel him get a little twitchy and look up at him with concern.

"Everything okay? You look like you're thinking hard about something." You say softly and you can tell he's trying to figure out what exactly to tell you before determination crosses his face.

"Yeah I'm good. Just thinking about how I'll wrestle Sawamura later." He smirks and you laugh.

"Don't go too hard on him. You know he means well. But Miyuki? Go wild." You chuckle before arriving at your door.

"I do have one more thing for you though. Go inside?" He asks and your eyebrow raises with suspicion. Still, you listen and open your door and step inside before closing it. A series of three knocks hits your door and you open it again to see Kuramochi striking a pose, flexing his biceps as he says, "Trick or Treat!"

You laugh, "Oh the Hulk at my door? How unexpected. I suppose our Trick is up so I'll give you a Treat." You both grin as you lean in for a kiss. He cups your cheek tenderly, adding a soft pressure on your lips.

"We'll tell them tomorrow. Let them feel proud of themselves before we tell them we've been dating for a month." You grin mischievously and Mochi throws his head back in laughter.

"This is why I like you! Can't wait to see their faces. Best Halloween ever."

Love & Lore's: Autumn Sweater Event

5 + 1 (The 5 times you borrow Miyuki Kazuya’s hoodie and the 1 time he borrows yours)

A/N: Hi y'all! Super excited to post this fic for @love-and-lore and their Autumn collab event. When the theme was announced as sweaters, this idea immediately came to mind. Hoodies count as sweaters right 😅 Please note this does include a female reader and pet names (babe, sweetheart).

Word Count: 2.4k

1. Running late to work

Monday. Most people’s least favorite day of the week. Weekends came and went faster than expected. And while Kazuya tried to get you to prep for the upcoming week during the weekend, you preferred spending your time with him and indulging in your hobbies.

It is also noted that he tried to get you to break the habit of leaving your jackets on the back of your dining room chairs. Both, however, were a moot point but soon would cause your downfall.

“Shoot I’m going to be late!” You curse under your breath as you scurry around the apartment in an effort to get your belongings together. Lunch, check. Purse, check. What am I missing? My business jacket! I have a presentation today, can’t forget that.

Checking your watch, your eyes widen in shock. Crap I have to hurry or I’ll miss my train!

Without a second thought, you grab the jacket from the back of a chair before rushing out the door, not even having enough time to wake your boyfriend up with a kiss like usual. Folding it over your purse, you rush out of the house, determined to make your train on time.

Luckily, you board the train and get to work right in the knick of time, much to your delight. However, once you settle yourself, your phone buzzes twice and you look to see a message from Kazuya including a picture.

“Good morning. If you wanted to give me something to wear, we could have talked about it. Maybe I’m not the only one who needs glasses, think you got a little mixed up.” You bypass his sleepy morning smile and your heart drops as you see him holding up your blazer. Your eyes flash down to your purse and sure enough you took his navy blue hoodie. A deep sigh escapes your body as you text back.

“I’m sorry Kazuya. Seems you’ve proven your point on being prepared for the week ahead -_-" ” With a bit of embarrassment, you ask one of your peers to borrow their blazer for your presentation.

2. Grocery shopping

Milk. Eggs. Bread. Tofu. Salmon. One by one, Kazuya and you start loading up the car with your groceries. You were more focused on how to pack up the trunk of your car until Kazuya stopped to look up at the sky, light and dark gray swirls reflecting on his glasses.

“Hmmm. We better move quickly. Looks like the rain is coming sooner than expected.”

“Say less!” The couple moves double time to pack up their items and start getting on their way home. While they’re able to get home in good time, the stormy weather was faster as the sky opened up as they parked.

“Scared of a little rain are you?” He teases as he shifts the gear into park.

“You know I’m not, I just don’t like getting wet.”

“Didn’t know my girlfriend was a cat.” Kazuya continues, causing you to narrow your eyes at him.

“Just for that I should make you bring in the groceries yourself.” You sass.

“Ah ah no need to be like that, sweetheart. I thought you loved me? What happened to doing things together?” He chuckles with a snarky grin.

“We could but not if you’ll be a jerk about it.” You pout playfully, causing him to laugh.

“You know I could bring it in myself, right?”

“I know but you know I love proving you wrong. Luckily, I’m already prepared.” Reaching past him in the back seat, you pull out one of his black hoodies. Grabbing the bottom of the hoodie, you work your body through it until it swallows you whole.

He laughs yet again, “Well alright then, partner. We’ll get a nice warm shower after this.” Both of you brace yourselves before rushing out into the rain.

3. Feeling sick

“Achoo! Achoo!” Your body seizes before relaxing again. The door to the guest room opens up and in walks Kazuya with a steaming bowl of soup. You sit up, reaching for a tissue to soothe your sniffling nose.

“Babe! You could have left it outside; I would have gotten it. I don’t want you to get sick too.” Kazuya shakes his head but it’s easy to tell he’s frowning behind his mask.

“It’ll be fine. This is just to make sure you eat some of the soup while it’s hot. I’ll be fine like this.” He assures you before setting up a tray so you can eat. Throwing your tissue away, you shift to the edge of the bed to see the biggest bowl of soup.

“Kazuya, this is a lot of soup. You don’t expect me to eat this in one go right?”

His eyes narrow before softening, “It would be ideal but eat as much as you can. It’s a family recipe.”

Your ears perk up at that, “Oh? From who?”

He grins, “From me. I got sick one time and created my miraculous soup. I was five times better the next day after eating it. All in one go might I add.”

You shake your head, “It would be from you,” but then a weak grin appears on your lips, “but if you’re sharing it with me, guess that makes me family.”

For once, you catch Miyuki off guard with that as his cheeks are a touch pink. You both had talked about marriage as a real possibility but were talking things slowly as to not rush things along. Normally, he’s the tease between the two of you but he doesn’t mind your teasing every once in a while. He chalks up this boldness to your weakened immune system.

“Yeah yeah yeah. Enough talk, time to eat. I’ll leave you to it.” He starts to go when you grab at his sleeve. He turns back around to see the prettiest pout on your lips.

“I know you have to go but for the record, I hate this. Only seeing you for a few moments here and there, it's not fair. Can’t I at least have something of yours to help me out?” Kazuya starts to tease you but just sighs instead. He’d have plenty of time to tease once you’re healed.

“Since you like hoodies so much you can have this one.” He grins before taking off his gray hoodie and handing it over. You take it happily and bring it to your face, eager to convince your nose to start working so you can at least catch a whiff of his cologne.

“Thanks Kazuya.” You smile, placing it on your lap before diving into your soup. His eyes crinkle softly before he leaves you with his soup and his hoodie.

4. Borrowing Stealing his gift

The door to the apartment opens, causing you to look around the corner from your spot on the sofa. “Hey, welcome back! How was it meeting up with Sawamura and Okumura?”

He chuckles, “It was fun. I swear Sawamura hasn’t changed at all since our time in high school. Okumura seems a lot more confident than before, surely because he had the best teacher.” Kazuya laughs, causing you to shake your head before noticing something in his hands.

“Oooh, what’s that? Is that a new hoodie I see? Red too?”

He holds it to his chest protectively, “Yes, as the amazing senpai I am, they got me a hoodie as a thank you. Also probably because I told them I’m living with a hoodie thief so you’re not allowed to touch this one.” Your face blanches, no he didn’t!

“I am not a thief! A borrower maybe but no thief!” You declare passionately, refusing to accept his slander no matter how true it was.

His eyes narrow at you skeptically, “Oh yeah? Where’s my black hoodie? What about the navy blue one?” He asks rapidly, letting you know that he’s apparently been keeping track but you’re quick to defend yourself.

“They’re all in the closet!”

And then he goes in for the kill, “On who’s side of the closet?”

You blush and look away, “That’s irrelevant.”

Kazuya laughs loudly, “Yeah that’s what I thought. Gotcha this time, sweetheart.” He walks by you with a grin as you decide to turn back to your tv show, knowing you’ve lost this time.

It isn’t until later when you’re sure that Kazuya is fast asleep, that you find the hoodie folded neatly on his side of the closet. Your hands gently pick up the hoodie and bring it to your face, admiring how soft it was. Yeah, I’ll have to take this.

In your admiration, you notice a piece of paper fall out of the front pockets. Picking it up curiously, you read the note in Kazuya’s handwriting, “Hands off my hoodie.”

Your eyes widen before scoffing at his note. Feeling crafty, you decide to switch out one of your red jackets with his new hoodie, even going so far as to put his note in one of the pockets.

Laughing evilly to yourself, you stash the hoodie in one of your drawers and slide back into bed beside Kazuya, satisfied with yourself. So much so, you don’t notice the grin he has on his face even in his “sleep”.

5. Ice cream spills

“This was a great idea! It’s always nice to get a workout in the park with you. Appreciate you taking it easy on me, babe.” You smile, deciding to catch your breath on the park bench. He smiles at you gently. Of course he wasn’t breaking a sweat but doing light workouts with you on the weekend was a nice way to spend time together.

“Of course. You did well and we passed an ice cream stand. How about I reward you for your hard work hmm?” Kazuya asks, knowing ice cream was certainly a weakness of yours. Immediately, your face lights up and before you can say the words, he smiles and heads off to the stand.

A few minutes later, he returns with two ice cream cones and hands you yours with a gentle smile. You thank him sweetly before diving in. And in the enjoyment of your ice cream, you spill some on your shirt.

“Seems you enjoyed yourself a little too much huh?” He chuckles, causing you to groan.

“Shut up.” You say playfully, before handing him your ice cream so you can remove your shirt. Luck favors the prepared it would seem and you already had a tank top underneath.

Folding up your shirt, you turn to get your ice cream from him, delighted to have your cold, sweet treat back. Unbeknownst to you, there was more than just your boyfriend's eyes on you.

Now normally, Kazuya isn’t a jealous person. He loves being able to show you off but only when he wants to.

Unfortunately, he’s too perceptive for his own good. Once, twice he noticed a few of the park joggers were enjoying the view and it wasn't nature. Tch, you heard the annoyed sound escape his lips.

“Something wrong?” You ask innocently. He hands you his ice cream and takes off his dark green hoodie.

“We were just working out. It’s not good for you to expose your body to so much air. Don’t want you getting sick again.” He says gently as he places the hoodie on your lap and takes the ice cream cones. A small smile graces your lips as you put on the hoodie.

“Thanks babe.” Cold lips press quickly against his warm cheek before going back to the ice cream. The next time the joggers pass by, he grins cockily.

“Show’s over.” Kazuya mouths to them.

1. The thief becomes the victim

Oftentimes, Kazuya has training camps all over the country to train as one does when they’re a professional athlete. While usually, you could rearrange your schedule to be close by, this was one of those times where he was going too far (aka outside of the country). This time, he would be away in America for an international training camp. So while you couldn’t be with him this time around, you both made sure to at least message or call.

It was halfway through his trip when you were able to hop on a video call with him.

“How’s the camp going?” You asked curiously, rubbing the sleep out of your eyes.

“It’s going well. It’s been interesting to meet global stars and see them play. How are you doing?” He smiled, a little weary after a long day’s camp.

“I’m doing good. Work has been keeping me busy but I wish I could be with you instead. Don’t get a big head but I do miss you.” Kazuya smiles softly at that, the one true smile only reserved for you.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be back home before you know it.”

“That’s good. Still not soon enough though. That said, something weird must be going on.” You say as you shake the phone as you go to prop it up on your dresser, giving him a view of you from the waist up.

Kazuya raises an eyebrow as he sees you searching the bedroom, “What’s going on?”

“I can’t find my sky blue hoodie! I just got some workout pants that match the color perfectly and now I can’t find it. Did you see it when you were doing laundry?”

The corners of his lips attempt to straighten even though they curve up a bit, “Nope I haven’t seen it.” There’s a light tone in his voice that makes you slightly suspicious. Looking back at the camera, you see something behind him sticking out.

“Kazuya, could you move to the left for a second?” You request curiously, causing the mirth to show his eyes.

“Why? What are you after?” He asks playfully, but the second he moves an inch your eyes widen in disbelief.

“Is that my hoodie? The exact one I’m looking for?”

“Can’t be.” He easily denies. You roll your eyes and exclaim, “I know what my hoodie looks like!”

But then the reality of the situation sinks in, “Awww you miss me! It’s okay to admit it, Kazuya. I just didn’t expect you to steal my hoodie.” You sweetly tease him, making him blush a little as he tries to cover it up with a scoff.

“Of course I miss you, we do spend every day together.” You giggle, “Look at you being cute. I guess I’m happily in love with a hoodie thief of my own.”

He laughs, “Consider this payment for all the times you took my hoodies.”

“Sure sure, but I will always prefer you over your hoodies.” You claim causing him to smile.

“I sure hope so. You’ll have the real thing once I’m back home.” Kazuya promises, filling both of your hearts with warmth.

Daiya No Ace Scenarios: Meeting at University

Kuramochi Youichi

You meet in the campus center while waiting for your food. They call the order and you're surprised when some random guy is practically running to the counter to pick up your order.

You speed up to meet him at the counter and give him a piece of your mind when you both check the number. It was actually his but ironically you both get the same order. He says you have great taste and invites you to sit with him. You talk about classes and turns out he's in one of your main Sociology lectures.

You both fall into a rhythm of grabbing your favorite meal together before heading to lecture. Occasionally, you attend his games and it isn't long until he speeds his way into your heart.

"I didn't know you were that fast, Cheetah." "Of course you did. I had to be faster than you to grab my food the first time we met right? Ahahaha!" "You know what?" *Chaos ensues*

Miyuki Kazuya

He is a peer tutor in your Statistics class. Miyuki learned the material early and it works well with his baseball talents.

Despite his snarky attitude, he's actually pretty helpful and takes the time to really explain the chapters breaking it down in a way you understand. Your convinced he's your saving grace (even though you would never tell him that, his head would get too big if you did).

At the end of the semester, you make him a nice thank you card with a gift card to a local coffee shop. You hand it to him after your final, thinking you won't see him again. But he finds you around campus and makes sure to thank you in his own way by proposing to redeem the gift card together.

"No I can't spend it with you! It's a gift for you." "Well since it's my gift, I can spend it how I want. And I want us to grab a coffee so stop complaining and let's go."

Chris Takigawa Yuu

You meet Chris in your Anatomy and Physiology class when you're paired together for a research project. After meeting up after class to discuss potential topics, you both discover you have a love of sports which makes it much easier to pick something sports related.

You put together a research project about the anatomy of different athletes based on their respective sports. It helped that Chris knew a lot of athletes since he played baseball.

It was great to study athletes from various sports and it was clear Chris was very thoughtful and diligent. He smiles at how personable you are with the athlete you interview and how you thank them with ideas that'll help them (recipes/workouts).

Needless to say, you both get an A for the paper and the class and decide to celebrate a job well done.

"I'm glad we were partners. You're really cool, Chris." "Thank you, that's very kind of you. Likewise. It would be great to see you at the next game. If you'd like, I can get you a ticket." "Already way ahead of you."

Hope you enjoyed this! It was fun to put something together for my latest obsession 💕

[spiltmusings]

@fateoftheempress drabble inspired by our love for this song 💜 Made me think of my own self-ship 🥰

I got what you want, I got what you need (uh-huh)

Mobbin' like we don't follow anything, oh

Left, right, get it on the floor

I wanna see you left, right, get in my zone, ha

The music bounces from wall to wall, filling the room with the melody while your body warms up to the rhythm. The song had been stuck in your head for hours so what better way to get the energy out than to dance?

The studio apartment you called home immediately transforms into a concert hall. Your performance is filled with passion as lyrics spill from your lips and pair well alongside choreo themed poses. With the setting sun casting its golden glow through your window, you had your own spotlight. You were unstoppable.

Thing is, you didn’t know you would soon have a spectator. Luckily for you, it is one you were very familiar with.

You’re none the wiser as the doorknob slowly turns to open and welcome your biggest fan, your boyfriend Reo. As the melody escapes your place and into the hallway, the familiar song rings clear in his ears.

And yet, it’s his sight that is the stronger sense.

It’s not just the way you move, although it is clear you had the moves, but it’s the joy in every step. He can tell that even with your back to him. Now unburdened by a long week, you’re just simply enjoying yourself and your favorite song. The way the sun shines on you, coloring you in hues of orange and pink, he almost feels guilty for watching, for interrupting something so perfect despite his impromptu dinner plans. Setting the bouquet of lavender roses on the counter, he closes the door and waits for the chorus.

Want your body swervin' left, right, left, right

I want your body movin' left, right, left, right

You keep me up, my heart is beating up and down

Spinnin' round and round (round and round)

Just like my pirellis, burning on the ground

If you're down with me then let's ride, let's ride

Can't nobody stop it, that's right, that's right

And my adrenaline is racing up and down

Spinnin' round and round (round and round)

Hit the pedal to the ground, listen to the sound (listen to the sound)

As you spin around, your body follows your heart as you jump, not expecting to see two pools of lavender with an amused expression. What you expect even less is when he starts to mirror some of your dance moves. Despite his formal attire from his blazer down to his dress shoes, he is the embodiment of the very thing you were to him, light. Not only in expression but also in spirit.

Surprise quickly morphs into delight as your bodies dance to the song in sync, riding the rhythm. What was a performance for one became a performance for two, filled with laughter and lip-syncing. You always loved seeing Reo just let go and be silly. And while it took some time for your relationship to get there, you’re both happy it did.

By the end of the song, you’re in his arms with your back against his chest. You feel it vibrate as he speaks.

“And here I thought I would be surprising you and ended up being surprised myself. You’re really something you know that?”

“Maybe you should call next time babe.” You tease, causing him to chuckle.

“And let you have all the fun? You wish. You’re not the only one who is full of surprises. You’ll see.”

[spiltmusings]

Fluffy Frustration

There are moments where you just get so mad. Whether it be work, family or just life, sometimes things just really irritate you. The best person to help you work out the frustration? Your boyfriend Osamu.

He had his fair share of frustrating moments. Losing volleyball matches, trying to find staff for Onigiri Miya and definitely arguments with his scrub of a brother. So when he comes home to you and the house is void of the warmth he's used to, he knows something's up.

Seeing the frown on your face, he plops down next to you on the sofa, gazing into your eyes. "Hey, you wanna tell me what's going on?"

"Don't wanna talk about it." You reply almost so quietly he misses it. He always has three options to help you work through it. Now he was down to two.

"Hmm. Okay." Samu nods, before picking up the decorative pillow and putting it on your lap. You look up at him curiously as he opens his arms.

"You get one free shot. Better make it count." He smirks, causing your lips to twitch, slowly morphing to a smile.

"You're such a dork." You tease before leaning in to kiss him softly. He responds, eagerly cupping your cheeks as he puts every ounce of love into the kiss. So much so, he gasps when he feels the pillow come down on his head.

"Oh that's how you wanna play? Okay you're on." He chuckles, reaching for another pillow.

"Bring it Samu."

The frustration escapes your mind as you playfully fight, laughing as you switch between well-timed attacks and defense. Samu smiles seeing your smile. And he didn't have to resort to his last tactic.

Mid-week Woes and Remedies

When you don't sleep well, you glare at your alarm clock pushing you to rise from a restless slumber. You drag yourself through your day, eager to be back in bed and away from the world, looking for respite.

It seems nothing could make your day any better, but when you go back to your apartment Daichi is there with dinner on the kitchen counter, the scent of your favorite food fills the air. For the first time today, you smile as your dulled eyes meet his warm ones.

"Didn't get a reply to my good morning text, sweetheart. I hope you don't mind, I'm here to give you anything you need." He says, figuring the day wasn't kind to you. But he will be.

As his arms open wide, you find yourself rushing into them, face pressed tightly against his chest as the tears just fall. He can't quite tell if they are happy or sad tears, but his arms surround you and squeeze.

It didn't matter anymore, because he was here.

[spiltmusings]

I think aran would love finishing his volleyball career to be a stay at home husband.

oh absolutely

aran who wears an apron, tying it a bit clumsily around his back. he adopted the habit from osamu, twisting the strings and fashioning them into a knot similar to the restaurant owner. aran who is still so big even after finishing his volleyball career, muscles tensing as he awkwardly twists to tie the apron strings behind him.

aran who catches you leaning against the counter, blatantly staring at the way his forearms flex–not dissimilar to how they flex when he's hovering over you late at night, finger fucking you on his thick fingers.

he would offer you a knowing look–a lopsided grin dripping with a sort of awkward, affectionate charm. a kind of charm that never fails to make your pulse skip a beat, thrumming harshly in your ears as you push off the counter to join him by the oven.

"this is too small," you murmur, appreciating the quiet hum that resides in your small, homey apartment. there's no need to be loud here.

aran only quirks a brow, playfully nudging your shoulder when you sidle up next to him. "is it? I didn't notice."

which, in all fairness, is entirely false. the apron is tight around his waist, even though he fastened it sloppily around himself. the years after volleyball have been kind to him, you muse, admiring how the extra weight settles nicely around his stomach, his shoulders, making him appear even broader than when he was a full-time athlete.

unbidden, thoughts of what those shoulders look like when he's fucking into you with powerful yet wholly gentle thrusts, your legs hanging over them, invade your thoughts.

pushing them aside, you trail a finger down the line of muscle on his bicep, swallowing thickly as aran prepares whatever dinner it is you'll be having later on.

you're too distracted to care about what it is.

"did you also not notice that you forgot a shirt?" you ask, eyes dipping down to trace along his bare shoulders, his collarbones.

this time, aran's grin breaks out a bit wider, a gleam in his eye when he turns to you and says, "no, I knew about that."

A dance off challenge from Terushima

A big bear hug from Bokuto

A tender back massage from Daichi

A nice hot tea and hand written note from Kita

A silly singalong with Oikawa

All of your plants already tended to by Ushijima

Talent Tuesdays - Wing Spikers

Secret talents of our favorite Haikyuu characters revealed!

Hinata: Magic tricks

He's always had a fascination with things that were cool and different

On top of that, being an older brother sometimes he also had to figure out how to keep his younger sister Natsu entertained

He would wear one of his mom's shirts as a cape and often put on little magic shows for her

May not always get the trick right but they end up laughing 😆

Osamu: Origami

Not to be confused with onigiri

It's a rather chill hobby for him that requires focus and can be rather peaceful unlike his chaotic twin

He always enjoyed the different shapes and things you could make and got good at it

Samu is very quiet about sharing his talent but Atsumu isn't and so the whole team has origami foxes

Sakusa: Piano

While enjoying his personal time or cleaning, he really likes classical music, especially the piano

He learned how to play when he was young, definitely grew up with a piano in his home

Given he's played for quite some time, he can play plenty of things from memory

Also has a great ear - it doesn't take long for him to figure out how to play songs if he doesn't have the sheet music

Futakuchi: Photography

He has such a keen eye for detail so photography works well for him

Not a lot of people know about this about him (except Aone) but he will wake up Saturday mornings and go to the park to see what he finds

Usually likes to photograph different birds but manages to always narrowly avoid the bird watcher's club so he can keep it a secret

Aran: Pottery

Was introduced to this by Kita's grandma one day and really enjoyed it

He always appreciates being able to make something by hand and put his own personal touch on it

In the beginning he used to freak out if things weren't working but over time, he learned how to fix it

He makes great bowls and cups, in fact he has his very first bowl and cup displayed at home

Monday Motivation

After a long day, there's nothing like:

A terrible hilarious Chemistry pun from Kuroo

A dance off challenge from Terushima

A big bear hug from Bokuto

A tender back massage from Daichi

A nice hot tea and hand written note from Kita

A silly singalong with Oikawa

All of your plants already tended to by Ushijima

Theatrical Thursday - Drama!AU

Featuring Seijoh 4

Oikawa:

Was definitely born to act - has a natural talent for it

Usually gets a main role and always featured on the marketing for it

Rest assured the place is packed and with more than just his adoring fans

After the show, he does meet with fans but has to have security just in case

Overall, he enjoys being on the stage and always makes sure to make the script his own

Can be a bit of a divo sometimes but Iwaizumi can always bring him back down to reality

"Iwa! I just asked for some water, what's wrong with that?" "You also asked for food and to be fanned. Have some consideration for others before I make you!" "Scary Iwa 😰"

Iwaizumi:

Now for Iwa, he likes to work behind the scenes so he's a part of stage crew

Knows the set in and out and where even the most obscurest of tools are

Can build up a set and break it down quickly without breaking a sweat

While people may be intimidated by him at first glance, they really warm up to him once they see how much he cares

Easily the most respected member out of the Seijoh 4

Even though he's a part of stage crew, there are plenty of people who wish he was acting especially other actors/actresses - of course the others take notice

"Another confession Iwa? Wow you sure are popular." "Yeah better keep the romance off set or Oikawa will get jealous." "Iwa, you're not allowed to get more confessions than me." "You're all being ridiculous 🙄"

Hanamaki:

Makki would love being a director and often comes up with the most ridiculous scenes to act

Often jokes with the actors/actresses in between sets and practice goes longer than expected 90% of the time

Because he has a great relationship with everyone they don't mind staying late

Has a great eye for detail especially when it comes to focusing on the emotions portrayed

Not the type to show them how it should be done but will use everyday situations to evoke the right emotion

"Remember how devastated you were when your best friend moved and then how excited you were when you met up again? That's the 💫energy💫 I want to see."

Matsukawa:

Mattsun like Iwaizumi also is involved with stage crew for two main reasons

One because if he was a director with Makki they would joke around too much

Two he's a little on the quieter side and wouldn't want to act on stage

That being said, his calm presence is so appreciated especially by budding actors and actresses alike so sometimes they'll ask him to run lines with them

Mainly works with the lighting and sound systems (actually has a natural talent in making shadow puppets)

"And so, my love let us go into the sunset where we- Hey I'm in the middle of a line here! Why is a shadow dog trying to eat me Mattsun?" *Matsukawa barks over the sound system 🐕🐕*

It Takes Two (on a Tuesday)

Where I talk about some of my favorite duos from Haikyuu! Today's Terrific Two are Daichi and Suga!

I couldn't not start with them as they have to be one of my favorite duos in this anime. They just balance each other out so well and they're strong in their own ways.

Daichi's strength is his presence and ability to lead. Sure part of it is him being Karasuno's captain but even off the court, he's a leader and someone you can always count on to give sound advice. He has an outwardly confident manner that really makes his team and others (Michimiya and Terushima) look up to him.

For Suga, it's his emotional intelligence and thoughtfulness. He's very easy-going and Suga is always able to flex to his team. Whether it's giving Kageyama advice or matching Nishinoya's energy, he can do it all. No one knows his team better than him. On top of that, he's always thinking about what they need to succeed like the hand signals or ensuring Kageyama and Hinata smoothed out their arguments.

These two really are the foundation of Karasuno. It wouldn't be Karasuno without either of them ❤️❤️

L is for the way you look at me

They say eyes are the windows to the soul. Eyes are able to connect those who choose to look deep enough. It was always hard being the new girl, constantly avoiding their eyes in fear that the wrong people would get too close, that they would look too deeply. But you couldn't avoid them forever.

Being a lover of sports, you heard that the Aoba Johsai volleyball team was the most popular group and so you decided to check out a game. You made it to the gym fairly early as the team was warming up and a few fans hand gathered in the stands.

As you made your way across the gym, you heard a commotion as a crowd of students rushed in your direction causing your head to turn and not see the person in front of you. Suddenly your body collided with someone else’s and while you would expect to go flying on your back, their hands steadied you by holding your waist.

Both pairs of eyes widened as they took the others in. Curiosity, wonderment, and dare you say a connection? The ability to look below the surface, to see past a mask that was otherwise cemented on. Just one blink is enough to break the spell and bond as you mumble an apology and continue on your way to the bleachers, leaving the other in a state of confusion.

O is for the only one I see

Everything happened so fast, he almost couldn’t believe what happened. Normally Oikawa was more aware of his surroundings but with his fans running towards him like a herd, he didn’t see someone in front of him. But then he two more unexpected things happened: He didn’t think it wouldn’t be someone he hadn’t seen before and he certainly didn’t expect to see someone so cute.

Your eyes were beautiful, stunning if he did say so himself. They had a depth to them as the colors swirled around. Before he could slip on his perfectly crafted mask, the magic in your eyes stopped him dead in his tracks. It felt as if you could see the real Oikawa, not just the one who puts on a show. It wasn’t the usual googly-eyed look he received from his fans, it was something more, something different. Something that made him nervous, something he hadn’t experienced before. And right when this all hit him at once, you slipped through his fingertips, bidding adieu with a kind apology. He couldn’t help but follow you retreating figure as he was circled by fans, letting the spell be broken momentarily as he slipped on his mask yet again.

The game went just as he had expected. The team had thrived under his leadership of course but he couldn’t help but to steal glances into the stands to look at you. It was clear you were watching intently but he still had so many questions: Who are you? What class are you in? Did you enjoy the game? Were you enamored with him yet?

As the game ended and he celebrates with his team, he watches you leave and pouts as the school comes to congratulate their victors. Soon the euphoria fades as they clean up the gym and Iwa inevitably confronts him, “You played well as always, but you started getting distracted towards the end.” Cue the teasing from Matsukawa and Hanamaki, “Yes I noticed too. Captain must have a crush on that cutie he bumped into.” “Must be love at first sight. He’s a goner now.”

"I do NOT!” He retorts causing them to laugh more and Iwa shakes his head. “She’s a transfer student in our year and keeps to herself. Don’t mess with her.” And while he said he wouldn’t, of course he looked for you. Whenever he was on school grounds, he kept an eye out for you and smiled when he saw you laughing with a group of girls. If they were having a home game, he always made sure to find you in the stands with that sweet expression and a smile on your lips.

V is very, very extraordinary

Needless to say, it took a while before your paths crossed again. No matter how many times he tried to intentionally get to you, something would always come up. Sometimes no matter how hard you try, somethings just aren’t meant to be forced. It was a hard pill for Oikawa to swallow as he was used to reaching for the stars and shaping his own destiny. But fate had other plans.

You stood at the entrance of the school, noting the rain and sighed as you forgot your umbrella at home. Being on clean up duty this week, your newfound friends had gone home without you so it was up to you to tough it out. Just as you were about to step into the rain, a hand on your shoulder stopped you in your tracks. Turning your head, your eyes widened as you took in the tall brown haired and brown eyed pretty boy with a soft smile on his face. “Hey there. I have an umbrella that’s big enough for the two of us, if you’d like I can walk you home.” As quick as you were to turn down his kindness, the rain picked up.

“Really I couldn’t ask that of you.” You add sheepishly despite the circumstances.

“Please it’s no trouble at all! I insist! What kind of gentleman would I be if I just left you to fend for yourself in this weather?”

And with that, you both stepped into the rain under his umbrella. While the wind had picked up, the warmth from his body relaxed you and you quickly found yourself at ease. The first few moments were quiet as you both snuck glances at each other, wondering the same question: Who will be the first to break the silence?

“Hey-” “So I-” You both spoke at the same time causing the other to laugh. He smiles easily, telling you to go first.

“So I realized I never thanked you properly for catching me that day. Thank you, Oikawa-san.” He chuckled, “Of course. It’s no problem at all. I’m sorry I didn’t see you. But it seems you know my name and I don’t know yours, that simply won’t do.” He teased gently causing you to shake your head and laugh as you tell him your name. L/N, Y/N. Your name stayed on repeat in his head as he committed it to memory.

“It’s lovely to properly meet you, L/N-chan.” Throughout the rest of the walk home, you got to know the pretty boy setter from his likes and dislikes to understanding his passion for volleyball. You both found it easy to be around each other, as if there wasn’t any pressure to be someone other than who you were. It was refreshing, like the rain you found yourselves in. But you know what they say, when it rains it pours and that couldn’t be a more fitting description of your love.

E is even more than anyone that you adore

From that day on, Oikawa and you grew closer. It went from him walking you home, to eating lunch together with the rest of his friends (who were hilarious as they constantly gave him grief), to you cheering him on during every game. Through the ups and downs, you were there through it all. With every obstacle and success, he found himself opening up to you in ways he hadn’t with anyone else, not even Iwa. That’s how he knew this was different, this was real. And it scared him. It scared him to be this transparent, like a see-through looking glass. But if there was anything you were good at, it was reminding him that you would always be there to ground him with just one look. Simply one glance into your eyes and he knew he could trust you. That you weren’t like the other people who came and went just to say they were with Oikawa Tooru the famous setter from Aoba Johsai. You saw him as Tooru, the charming and yet playful dork who was passionate about volleyball, aliens and the people he cared for in his life. And that’s when he knew he had utterly and hopelessly fallen for you.

But he wasn’t the only one that had changed of course. Before Oikawa, you were much more shy and reserved, definitely on the more introverted side of the spectrum. Yet Oikawa turned your world of grey, white and black into one of vibrant colors of red and pink with a bit of pastel blue. You found yourself being a bit more outgoing, able to joke around with his friends after a few times of hanging out with them. Going out and exploring the city wasn’t as daunting as it was with him by your side as you both enjoyed festivals as if you were young kids again, playing games and enjoying the food.

On the weekend nights where you would stargaze, you found yourself opening your heart to him in ways no other has been able to see before. Your fears, wishes for the future, and ultimately your desire to stay by his side for the rest of your years to come. The sudden confession caused your eyes to lock on each other’s again, much like the first time you met. And this time nothing would break the spell as you drew closer until your lips touched for the first time.

So it wasn’t a surprise to anyone how several years later you ended up on the other side of the world with a silver ring on your finger and a love in your heart that continued to grow day by day. As you looked out from the balcony, you felt strong arms wrap around your waist causing you smile and lean into his touch as you both enjoy the setting sun. While the sun would set, you both knew your love would not. A soft kiss is pressed to the crown of your head as he whispers, “This love was meant for me and you.”
