My Personal Library of Sakuatsu Fics

I have gone through like thousands of sakuatsu fics (i'm not even joking) and these are my favorites. There is a range of characterizations and ratings here, but these ones either always warm my heart or make me laugh really hard. Also i'm terrible at summaries and they're not in any order or ranking. 1. Over the edge of my bones by ionica01 (M) This is unironically the best sakuatsu fic. If you're a big fan of a consistent metaphor throughout and a bit of a softer SKTS this is for you. It's surrounds new single dad Atsumu trying to figure out how to balance everything while learning it's ok to ask for help, and to move on. Really really good, this author is one of my faves.

2. How to NOT fall in love with your flatmate's twin by ionica01 (M) This one feels like a love letter to both Miya twins. It centers around Sakusa, who has just moved into his college dorm with Osamu, and he learns about different kinds of way to show your love, and he's more than just the label he's given. Also a bit softer SKTS and omigiri bffs.

3. life: 1, Kiyoomi: 0 by getouification (T) Sakusa joins MSBY and learns that unfortunately Miya Atsumu means a lot to him as a friend, and possibly even more than that. Also? Omigiri bffs again which I'm a bigggg sucker for.

4. Fining Atlas by Sieges (M) Sakusa writes fanfiction about people he has crushes on, while Atsumu reads fanfiction about himself. They bond over it, and become bffs in the way only skts would consider so. It's like if you took the fic above this and made it more hateful and a bit grosser.

5. Itadakimasu by Goshiikii (T) Sakusa doesn't know how to cook worth a rat's ass, so he puts out an ad for someone to come cook him meals so he can stop ordering out so much. Atsumu likes to cook, but a shit kitchen, so he applies and they get along well. This is a super sappy one, and honestly the ending lowkey falls a bit flat to me because it's straight cheese, but overall still a very nice read.

6. False Pretenses by matsuwuhana (T) Skts are academic rivals at the same marine biology conference, but Atsumu's weird ex is there, so they pretend to date to get him to go away. Pretty good, quick read.

7. Serious as a Tootsie-Pop by orphan_account (T) Skts are doctors, and Atsumu wants Sakusa so bad it makes him look stupid, literally. He makes a bet with Sakusa that he'll be able to make him laugh by the end of the month, and if not he'll leave Kiyoomi alone. Really like how Atsumu is shown in this one. I sometimes get really sad when Atsumu is characterized as a complete asshole who no one likes, I think this one has a great balance of that. Like yeah he's annoying, but he is still a caring guy. His jokes are really, REALLY corny though. Like on the cob level.

8. Atsu101: how to fall in love with your fake boyfriend by solyn (M) CERTIFIED CLASSICCCC!!! This bitch needs no introduction, but i'll give it anyway. Atsumu needs a fake boyfriend to go to a party, and Kuroo has just the person to help him out. Neither of them are happy about it until they are. Very funny dorm arrangement of Atsuken roommates with a heavy dose of Kuroo. Probably one of the funniest lineups I've seen. 9. The Story of Us by thesweetestnerd (M) If you're a big angst person, this one's for you. This one had me screaming and kicking. Sakusa gets in a car accident and forgets everything that happened after high school. This already sucks majorly, but the cherry on top was that he and Atsumu had been in a relationship, and hadn't told anyone. So now he's put back in a headspace of hating Atsumu, and Miya is the only one who knows anything about what they were like behind closed doors. This was good, and I don't have qualms with the ending in terms of actual plot, but it's super bittersweet for my sakuatsu heart. Just warning it doesn't end in the nice pretty bow you want it to.

10. but we're not, like, in love by goshkiki (E) This one is so damn funny. It's kinda hardcore oblivious trope. Both Sakusa and Miya are horn dogs, and. no one wants to bunk with them at away games because they keep bringing people back to their rooms. They force them in the same room, and end up coming to the conclusion, that it would just be easier if they had sex with each other so they didn't have to go through the hassle of who gets the room. It gets more and more domestic as it goes on, and the people around them HATE it, because they don't realize they're boyfriends at this point. The ending is kinda lackluster and I feel was lowkey pimento cheese, but still a funny read. Just gave off "why are we like this 🤪" vibes, which isn't bad but it sets me off a bit. 11. Finders Keepers by Solyn (M) Sakusa is babysitting his nieces and nephews who have all decided to run off in directions in the heart of Tokyo. Luckily, a very hot stranger helps him get them back one by one. Really funny, also insanely long one shot it's like 45k words. Also just realized I haven't been labelling these with a word count, and i'm too lazy to go back and do that so uhhhh surprise! 12. Love letter to summer by Solyn (T) Yes, I did just realize that this is the third Solyn fic listed leave alone... both them and iconica01 are PEAKKKKK. but regardless. This one is for the atsumu lovers for real. The gist of this one is Kiyoomi spends the summer at the Miya house with the twins and Suna. Another soft skts rec. It's just a real nice read if you're looking for a little story before bed. 13. Three Sheets to the Wind by fairycake (M) Holy fuck. This one is so fucking funny. Like tears in my eyes, hand over my mouth silent laughing. Sakusa is like a nobleman on a voyage when his ships gets taken by a pirate crew. The lineup for this crew is so funny. It's the twins, hoshiumi, bokuto, suna, hinata, kageyama, and USHIJIMA. The main gist is Sakusa hates his life and his family, so he goes on a trip to avoid his grandma's birthday party when he gets captured. Obviously, the crew does not gaf and they're like after we do this we'll bring you home. But Atsumu pisses them off, and they get in a crazy level prank war, and pirate chaos ensues. The world building for this is so awesome, and definitely a real good one for folks who want the true enemies to lovers skts experience. Also? Banana the parrot is probably the funniest character I've ever seen in my life. Thank you fairycake for saving my life.

14. mastermind by sunlitseijoh (T) Sakusa has been pining since day ONE. like he's been in love with Atsumu since their youth training camp days. This one is a quick sweet and silly one. It's a part of this fic collection that I actually overall enjoyed. It's not a linear plotline throughout all of them, and i think they're all based off taylor swift songs, but i genuinely know nothing about all that. I just know it's good. Check it out. 15. i'd like to hang out with you (for my whole life) by sunlitseijoh (T) This is apart of that fic collection I was just talking about. This one follows them from their meeting at 15 at the training camps all the way to when they're adults. High school sweethearts navigating how adulthood works and how their relationship fits in that. A wee big of angst, but a real good read. 16. Let me have this by midnight crush (E) Very Kiyoomi centered. He's getting closer to Atsumu, but is afraid as he was raised in a homophobic household. There's a lot of fics with this general premise, but I really like the way this one was written. There was more communication throughout, and also what felt like a good display of nonlinear growth. Longer read, but would recommend! Ok so those are my top ones that I have kept tabs on! If you wanna talk to me about SKTS please do it's basically all I read. Hope y'all enjoy the fics!
