#but usually I just see people wanting yuuji to power up or complaining

[lavenderjewels]

i know they’re literally the main character and villain (well one of them) but more people need to appreciate the writing behind yuuji and kenjaku

Last chapter leaked and is so, so bad

Hi anon.

I've actually skipped looking at leaks this time (and would do so in the future) because I've wanted to experience one chapter in its entirety and not just have it vaguely translated. Besides, I started to really hate how popularized leak culture is in this fandom. It's gotten so bad to the point that some people don't even read chapters, they just read leaks and that's it.

I understand why you might think it's bad. I also think so. There's two chapters left and, as a fan of the story, I dislike the direction of everything. It feels rushed and forced... it isn't fulfilling at all. I'm happy for those who do think it's good but for me it's a hard miss. Landings in shonen usually aren't pretty though so I'm used to it. (and even though there are two chapters left it still wouldn't change much really.)

As a Yuuji fan though, oh am I having fun lol.

I'm going to put the rest behind the cut (which is my opinion on this chapter).

We get explanations because of course we do. There were many fans who disapproved and called bs on the way the entire Sukuna fight was handled. I have to admit that even though I do think what Gege wrote makes sense, it still feels overtly complicated and just a tad plot convenient how everything played out perfectly. It's all just... I don't know. Too much explanation and little to do with imagination. I'm not a child so I don't need a chapter dedicated to spelling out little things that could've easily been mentioned at an according time (like during the battle).

Still... the way the powers work here in this story does require you to really sit and think and do require block after block of text. This is the one part that I never liked about jjk because explanations like these make character-oriented moments feel less alive and make all of them behave like a bunch of dolls because one moment you'll see them talking but the next panel you're met with a whole class on jujutsu. It was always bizarre to me how little interaction there was between characters... hell if you take away the class sessions, they rarely have moments where they talk amongst themselves for themselves instead of giving a lesson on jujutsu or strategizing. It's admittedly a bit strange but oh well... it is what it is ig.

There's a reason (aside from certain characters being hot) why jjk's tag on ao3 has a lot of works. Some people take what we know and expand on it in a far less Gege-way by having characters interact with each other. I have grown to like more characters in fics way more so than in canon. In canon, only a handful of characters get my love and I'm sad to admit that those that do (such as Maki and Higuruma), quickly slip out of that loving spot and now I can't really feel as happy as I did about them before.

On that note, I haven't felt anything when Higuruma showed up alive. Yep lmfao. I used to feel for this man a lot and he is one of my top 3 (aside from Yuuji and Sukuna) but... I can't say I am happy that he's back. Now his sword disappearing in Yuuji's hand is for nothing and him clearly dying in front of Yuuji was for nothing. I still do love him and can't really dislike him (absolutely not) but canon... man the story really is kicking me in the butt when it comes to execution because ever since 265, the story had been a literal mindfuck. When I think I have a sense of where it is going to go, it goes a total opposite direction (and usually the one that doesn't really fit the vibes of the previous chapter). To me... the story's now all over the place which is contradictory because everything is being spoonfed to the readers and everything is "fine and dandy".

I still will complain because Shibuya arc had me thinking that I'd be reading something different (like CSM did) but then... here we are. There are practically no real consequences (aside from Gojo) in the Sukuna battle but at this point I wouldn't be surprised if he, too, gets a pass and gets resurrected. I would love nothing more than to read a shonen where the dead don't come back and where there's actual troubling consequences but then that wouldn't really be a shonen but would be a different genre all together (a seinen) so... yeah. I'm not going to count in Megumi's sister (because she's barely even a character) nor reincarnated cursed spirits (because we couldn't really even invest ourselves in them before they were gone) so you could say the only real casualty of the whole vs. Sukuna (aside from the Merger which wasn't even a real threat since Kenjaku wasn't even that intent on that plan in the end) is my time.

I'm just joking ofc, but I hope you get my point. It's not rewarding, not fulfilling and definitely not a good conclusion for someone who could barely even invest themselves into other characters. I still can't give a fuck about Yuta, or Kusakabe, or Panda. I feel just as stone-faced as Nobara and Yuuji did during the latter half of 268 when Megumi joined them. It's all so... whatever. (and it's kinda hilarious to me because the fandom is losing their minds and meanwhile the characters are lowkey behaving like dolls lol)

Still for those who did enjoy this and do love how everything is unraveling and so on and so forth, good for them. I'm just stating my opinion. Some might get the impression that I would love for jjk to be a tragedy, and tbh, I would not but I really would've loved if Gege, as an author, made me care about the side characters more. Instead the side characters to me feel like empty husks and I attached myself to Yuuji because his development seemed interesting only for it all to amount to weird ass interaction with the entire cast and back to being benched. He's literally playing spectator now in this chapter and yeah... it's really disappointing.

Again, two chapters left and this is where we're at. Lol.

I don't want to be a killjoy but yeah. It's not all so bad really but it is frustrating how little there is about the world and in general how many things have been shelved in favor of what we got now. Instead of seeing these interactions (which was just recycled "ok so this happened which wasn't explained") we could've gotten explanations regarding Yuuji's linage, his talk with Gojo, or for that matter, had character behave a little less like npc's in a video game that repeat the same dialogue when you come up to talk with them.

What this chapter did reveal which was also funny (said with anger btw) to me is this:

So Yuuji's "gloves" weren't really a cool feature that came from swallowing his half-brothers but by mr. Chosen One himself. Le big sigh.

Okay so... the Yuta glaze. No offense to people that like him but since when did he develop this much that he overshadowed everyone (even the King of Curses) in the end? Not only is his plan this successful but turns out that without him, everything would've failed.

I'm just straight up baffled at the amount of attention he's getting because last time I checked he wasn't the one who brought back the literal threat of the series and had absolutely no connections with the secondary antagonist (Kenjaku). Instead of the supposed main character who never had gotten the spotlight in his own fucking story (which is just proving those haters right atp because truly what the actual hell is jjk about? Everyone but Yuuji.) to get something that belongs to him... Nope. None of that.

If you thought this was an actual serious story then well... jokes on you. This panel is actually lowkey hilarious but because I really had grown fond of the story I just find it frustrating.

Yeah I... I don't know what to say really but Gege really disappointed me with this. I'm not much hopeful for the future (because the writing does feel quite cheap) and therefore will stop treating jjk like I did before. Does this mean that I hate it? No. I'm just disappointed.

I will keep my head up for like two chapters more since I'm curious what else can happen but then will definitely move on. Not from the characters tho who (luckily) can exist outside of canon. Yuuji and Sukuna will always be my babies and others are still there in my heart even though I'm very much so frustrated with the story.

So yeah... there you go. I probably might skip answering asks regarding the chapters in the future bc I really don't care anymore. If Yuuji's linage get addressed (which is the only thing I care about atp bc everything else is starting to annoy me) I might be okayish with whatever the hell we get as the ending.

[cursedvibes]

Happy holiday.... What do you think that made Yuuji is so likeable as a character? I've only been in the JJK fandom for a year, and I've seen a lot of other JJK characters' stan. But one thing in common, they all love Yuuji and mostly will include him in their top 5 fav JJK charas (including me :D)...

Also, extra kudos cause your blog is anti-gojo. Most of my moots love him and can't stop talking about him. I already tell them that I don't really like him (actually I hate him), they're okay but still so into him. So I'm so happy when I found your blog.

What do you think that made gojo so famous? Is it the pretty face and bad personality (I'm still confused until now)....? I dislike gojo kinda like I dislike dazai from BSD. They're both called "The one who stole the spotlight from the protagonist" (by my animanga group)....

Happy holidays to you to, hope you had a good time

I think it's pretty hard not to like Yuuji. Even if you aren't that interested in his character, due to his friendly personality and plenty of cute moments it's hard to hate him. I think this Pure Sunshine Boy interpretation (that I don't entirely agree with) is the main reason fans are drawn to him. The suffering he has to endure and how he continues to grow from it is quite fascinating to witness as well. What I personally like about him is also how he has a darker side to him, that pure hatred he has reserved for Sukuna and Mahito, but which we also saw when he beat up bullies as a middle schooler. He's not just sunshine and rainbows, he has a quite serious and lonely side to him he often hides from others and that is the reason he used to not have many friends until recently. Fits with his morbid obsession with death and how he is prepared to die and wants to die to pay for everything he's done despite being so young.

Looking at fan interpretations of him, I'm not sure that's why he's in the top 3 of the popularity polls, but it's what I like about him. The main criticism I see of him is that people think he's too weak to be the main character of a shonen series and isn't the centre of attention enough, but I think that's pretty stupid and thankfully it's only a (loud) minority of people who think that. I'm glad he deviates from the shonen formula there.

Now for Gojo, I first have to say that I wouldn't consider myself "anti-Gojo". I often think he's annoying and recent developments in the manga led to me complaining about him a lot, but I don't actually hate him, not the way I do with Geto, Yuuta or at times Choso. His fans can get on my nerves a lot and I think he was written very badly after being released from the Prison Realm, but usually I don't care about him. I like his high school self actually, before he got so overpowered, his faults were more interesting there.

I think the majority of his popularity is because he's a pretty white-haired anime guy with cool powers and part of a popular yaoi couple, i.e. you got some dramatic feels mixed in there as well. That seems to be the gist of what I see online as reasoning for why people like him and what made him famous when the anime started airing. There are deeper reasons too (best ask a Gojo fan for those), but his looks, iconic blindfold design and relationship with Geto seem to be the main things people are drawn to. Things like that are often what's most important in making a character popular.

Smoke Sesh Blues Pt.1

Pt.1 Terushima/Kunimi/Kenma x Reader ll Weed 

Pt.2 Saeko x Reader ll Molly + Alcohol 

INTOXICATED a  Miki Mouse Whorehouse collab.    

A/N: Here is my second collab fic for the whorehouse and I couldn’t be more excited! This is a Dark Content fic, so 18+ please dot not interact or you will be blocked.  (This one doesn’t have any NSFW in it but it doesn’t mean I want a bunch of minors interacting with my content).

TW: mentions of alcohol, weed smoking, mentions of shrooms.

WC: 1.5k

Sitting across the room was the most beautiful woman you’d ever seen, well, beautiful might not be the best word to describe her.  Ethereal, and transcendent might’ve been the words you’d use to describe a really, really attractive woman, but Tanaka Saeko was not just any attractive woman.  

Where beautiful meets savagely charismatic, ethereal simply wasn’t enough to describe the sheer magnetism that the young blond woman exuded, simply sitting there, grinning from ear to ear.  Her sharp, dark eyes and toothy grin hit you straight in the guts, and that’s when you fell, hard and fast, and painfully.  

Next to the blonde was a young woman equally as attractive as Saeko herself, and if Saeko wasn’t the definition of ethereal, the raven-haired girl sure was.  With a pale and delicate face that screamed of poise and grace, a criminally sexy mole on the left side of her chin, and blue eyes that made a chill of pleasure run down your spine, Shimizu Kiyoko was the epitome of everything you weren’t.  

Saeko had her right arm around the younger girl, hugging her close, as if afraid she’d run off.  “I’d take precautions too, if that was me,” you thought.  Kiyoko was one of the smartest and prettiest girls in campus after all, and despite not knowing her personally, having talked to her only once or twice because of mutual classes, it wasn’t hard to understand why she was one of the most sought after girls. 

Well, that and the very amusing reputation preceding her since she entered university two years ago.  The thing was, the dark-haired girl wasn’t Saeko’s girlfriend, but she was definitely intertwined with a Tanaka. Saeko’s younger brother to be exact, Tanaka Ryuunosuke.  

The two were rumored to have been going out since Kiyoko’s high school graduation.  Despite having let it be known pretty early on in her academic life that she had a boyfriend, with a younger partner still in high school, all the hungry frat boys up for a challenge and every business major in a radius mile who thought she “deserved better”, apparently made it their mission to woo her.  It made for pretty good entertaining drama to watch, but your heart went out for her. 

Based on what Saeko told you, keeping you updated on the family drama, the first year was really rough on the young couple.  With her younger brother finally on campus this year, though, overcoming all the annoying dudes was easier done a job at two.  Especially with a barking protective idiot and Kiyoko’s punching one-liners, which you wouldn’t expect coming from someone so calm and collected.  Perhaps it wasn’t that surprising, apparently, from what you’d heard from Saeko, Kiyoko’s comedic timing was unmatched.

And okay, you obviously knew Saeko, and if Kiyoko wasn’t her girlfriend, what was the big fuss all about?  Jealousy, simple as that. It was 10 pm on a Friday night, which meant parties around campus were raging from one hard to get in-club to home parties and make-shift park dancefloors. Fridays were made for debauchery and every single student who didn’t work a night shift was accounted for, every student except one, Ryu.  

Saeko’s younger brother, a baldy with a lively personality, was running late because of his group of friends.  Something about “Noya wrecking havoc once again” and “the trio trying to fix things, again”.  You didn’t know what the issue was but it was a problem for you because that meant that Saeko had to act as guard dog for the younger girl, which meant less time spent making you feel all sorts of sinful little pleasures.  

Saeko wasn’t your girlfriend either, which is why you didn’t have that close connection to Kiyoko.   You guys were simply friends with benefits, lots and lots of benefits that included midday brunches, and late-night movie and make-out seshs, but still, only friends with the hall pass.  

You were making eyes at the blond, desperately trying to make her notice you, amongst the hordes of horny 20-somethings year old guys trying to get at Kiyoko, but without luck. Tired of waiting and wanting to actually start enjoying yourself, you decided to go explore the rest of the house the party you currently were in was hosted. Leaving the living room, you ventured into a surprisingly big kitchen where you spotted Terushima Yuuji running his little side hustle. With a hum and an easy smile plastered on your face, you made your way towards the young man.  

You knew Terushima from years ago. When you and your friend Issei started venturing into the wondrous world of drugs and alcohol, he mentioned how he knew this guy from a rival volleyball team who was supposedly the best plug in the area, which Terushima was.  The shrooms you bought off of him never disappointed and the weed he provided really was that good fucking kush. Tonight though, you felt needy and wanted to let loose, so molly it was.  

You put your hand on Terushima’s shoulder, making him aware of your presence, and he turned around, a slight frown on his face before he recognized you and greeted you with the sickest bro shoulder-bump-hand combo. You loved this dude so damn much. 

“So, what’s it gonna be this time my little pogchamp?”

With a grimace you pushed the young man’s face with your hand and laughed.

“You’ve got to stop watching your Tiktoks on Instagram, you’re like two months late to that trend my guy.”

“Ain’t no problem, when a king does right by his subjects the peasants don’t have a choice but to laugh along”, he grinned.

At that, you bursted out laughing, holding your belly because of how ridiculously funny that statement was. “Out of pocket, Teru, out of fucking pocket.”

With a whatever, and a roll of his eyes, Terushima asked what you wanted and gave you a few little pills that fit just right inside your jean pocket.  

“You know you’re the best.” Sending finger guns his way, you were about to leave, on a quest to find another interesting adventure, when Terushima called your name.

“Hey if you wait a couple minutes until I’m done here we can go smoke a few. Kunimi just bought this new bong and it’s pretty fucking sick, you’ll love it.”

With nothing better to do, you agreed and after a while, Terushima was done and the both of you left the kitchen and made your way to the second-floor, towards Kunimi’s room. When you arrived, the door to the room was closed but you could see the smoke filtering out of the red lit room, the people around too busy in their own affairs, or simply not caring enough, to notice the very obvious hot-box going on behind the closed room.  

When you got in, Doja Cat’s Kiss Me More was playing on loop, and you unsurprisingly found Kunimi and Kenma sharing the bong. The pair could outsmoke you any day, but you genuinely enjoyed their company.  

There was no one better than those two to have a chill yet feel-good smoke sesh with, cuddles and an infinite supply of munchies present every time. You sat next to Kenma and he immefiatley started nuzzling you, passing you the bong.  On the back, you could hear Kunimi telling Terushima he was being too loud and that he’d kick him out if his voice reached higher levels than Toad’s. Terushima was right, paired with the right weed, this bong was way too powerful and it only took you a couple of hits to start feeling.  

You laid down, Kenma still close to you, and started singing along, while playing with Kenma’s hair.  Yeah, this was definitely your definition of a good time, but despite how good you were feeling, and how warm the little guy you were cuddling with felt, you thought something was missing.  The pills in your pocket started feeling heavier, unease growing  inside of you.  Lost in your worry, you apparently started petting Kenma too roughly, if the kick in the knee he gave you was anything to go by.

“Sorry”, you mumbled, only to receive a small groan for an answer.  

You don’t know how long you stayed like that, cozied up on the floor with your friends, listening to Doja’s newest collab, but the moment was disturbed when a foreign source of light appeared.  Someone had opened the door and when you saw who it was, your heart nearly skipped a beat.  Fucking feelings.

With a gentle smile on her face, Saeko was looking at you with what, for a split second, you thought was fondness, but a moment later her eyes went back to their usual playful glee, and her toothy grin returned.  

“Ryu got here like an hour ago, I’ve been looking for you, but I see you don’t really need me to have a good time, hm?”

By that point, you felt more sleepy than high, but seeing the woman occupying your every thoughts appear out of nowhere, with what looked like heavenly light all around her, which was just some crusty hallway lighting, woke you up faster than you cared to admit. You kissed Kenma on the cheek, patted Kunimi on the head, and slapped Terushima on the shoulder as a goodbye, and before they could complain about the disturbance, you were out of the door.

(mod; yeah, oil really is super pretty actually! it's amazing that you can paint...do you post your art somewhere? i guess the rule with art is consistent practice? i'm sure you'll hack human faces real soon!)

*scoffs at you* Me? A bad influence?

*hums while taking a bite* So you were frustrated that other people got to meet me first? Wanted to know what all the ruckus was about, yeah? *chuckles* And now you're on a date with said curse. Proof that I'm not that bad afterall. Don't know what it says about you though.

*tilts head and looks out of the window* What I do all day stuck in my domain? Apart from being bored out of my fucking mind? I listen in on conversations. When the brat is put fighting, I taunt him. Sometimes I lend him my power when he's about to die. When he falls unconscious or is about to die, I make deals with him and wipe his memory so he doesn't remember what we agreed on and change his mind. *sticks tongue out and looks at you*

Unfortunately, I actually need the brat. My power is distributed into fragments in my fingers, the more he eats, the more I get my old strength back. Until then, I need to protect him as my vessel. Once he's eaten all 20 fingers, I'll be strong enough to fight that Gojo bastard and annhiliate everyone who dares cross my path.

*puts chin on hand, grinning* Now then, princess. I need you to start taking some shots. What is a question you would hate to answer? *taps finger against my cheek as I think* Drunk soft sex, sober rough sex, high kinky sex with Yuuji Itadori, Fushiguro Megumi or Gojo Satoru. What's your pick? *grins*

- Sukuna

*giggles* mhmm definitely.

*sighs and picks at food contemplating while taking a bite* Sort of, yeah. Not that everyone got to meet you first, just that I hadn’t yet y’know? I have a lot of experience with seeing curses as more than just something to exercise so naturally I was curious and I knew I was being kept away from you because those old bastards, the higher ups, don’t trust me. *I scowl and take a sip of my drink*

*grimaces thinking about how boring it must be to sit around all the time* Can you see what Yuuji does? Like do you at least get to actively see and hear what he does? No wonder Yuuji constantly complains. Having someone taunt while he’s fighting. *pouts at you* I’m not gonna touch on the fact that you take advantage of poor Yuuji like that because, even though I’m sure it’s partially selfish, it’s sweet of you to lend him your power like that.

*lights up at the mention of your fingers subconsciously going to touch my bag, where the finger is currently stuffed in, to make sure it’s still there* Speaking of your fingers… One of the special grades we fought today was a finger holder. I’m actually surprised you haven’t mentions it’s presence. Gojo had me keep it to give to you- well to Yuuji…

*scrunches nose in disgust at your invasive question picking up a shot glass* Yeah I’m definitely not answering that one especially with Yuuji listening in on it. *throws head back and gulps down the shot easily scowling momentarily at the burn*

{ it really is and i love that is has texture! i don’t post my art anywhere. i don’t paint often enough for that and it’s usually just for myself :)) yep! That and patience which i have a hard time keeping when it comes to art🥲 }

[nightimagines]

👑 yoyoyo may i have haikyuu headcanons for fem s/o, late night studying with miya atsumu, oikawa, kuroo, ushijima and terushima? Please and thank youu! More power to the blog!! 💪💖 👑

I’m sorry this took so long, crown anon, but I was waiting until I reached the Miya brothers before writing this to get a better feel for their characters. I’m already caught up with the manga, but I’m still trying to get a feel for these characters. Anyway, I hope I did well, and I hope you enjoy it!

— Mod Blue ☾

MIYA ATSUMU

Atsumu suddenly asks you to help him study at his house, and you accept.

He finds it a little irritating that Osamu is actually hanging around because his twin decides to join the both of you.

Throughout it all, he stays close to you and cuts off Osamu’s questions most of the time by showering you with affection. But you ask him to behave before helping Osamu with whatever question he had.

Osamu’s doing it partly because he needs to study, but mostly because he wants to get a bit of revenge on his twin brother for all the shit Atsumu’s pulled before.

Atsumu knows this and he’s definitely going to act like a possessive child throughout it all until Osamu leaves you both alone. You know exactly what they’re doing, and you play along because it amuses you.

Honestly, you find his jealous and possessive side kinda cute. It even gets to the point that he drops studying altogether and just wraps his arms around you, pulling you close to him and pouting at you.

“Stop acting like a child, Atsu-kun! We need to study, remember?”

“But, [Name]-chaaaaaaan!”

He whines, telling you you’ve been paying way too much attention to his twin brother than him before.

You tease him that it was only because Osamu asked for your help with studying while he didn’t even try to ask anything.

“If you want me to pay attention, then get to studying! Just ask questions if you can’t understand anything.”

He takes that as an invitation to ask you question after question even though you know he knew the answer.

You entertain him until it’s getting late. Then you tell him it’s time to stop because you need to go home, and he needs to sleep.

The both of you walk to your house with your hands entangled and a pleasant conversation between you. But once you get to your house, he kisses the top of your head and holds you for a while before you part.

After that, he walks home while texting his twin to open the door that he knew was locked because his twin was jealous of HIS girlfriend.

OIKAWA TOORU

He suggests studying with him at his house for your upcoming test. He’s pretty smart, so you accept.

Studying with him is about the same as one would expect. Oikawa occasionally flirts with you, and takes every opportunity to get closer to you.

Oikawa likes resting his head on your shoulders and wrapping his arms around you from behind. These are the times he complains you’re focusing more on studying than him.

He’s a very needy and whiny boy after a long and quiet session of studying.

“[Name]-chan, let’s take a break and cuddle instead! Stop studying and pay attention to me!“

“Tooru-kun, studying is the point of a study session, you know? Now stop, you’re distracting me.“

“Oh ho! So I’m a distraction to you, huh?“

Then he buries his head into your neck and starts kissing you all over. Once you admit you were getting distracted by him, he’s going to try to make it harder and harder for you to concentrate.

If you concede and cuddle with him for a little while, he tells you little fun facts and a few advice for studying. Like setting up a reward system for whenever you’ve been studying for 3 hours or so.

While the studying comes to a halt, it’s still very informative because he’s a huge help.

If it’s late and you tell him you need to go home, he unsurprisingly offers to let you sleep over. But unsurprisingly, he offers you his bed while he takes the couch.

But surprise, surprise! He’s just kidding, and he’s already grabbing his coat as he tells you that he’s going to walk you home instead.

He holds your hand and pulls you closer to him as you walk, and if he sees you’re cold, he offers you his coat… or getting into his coat instead with a wink.

Once you get home, he smiles and jokingly offers to sleep over in your house because he’s already there. You just giggle and playfully hit him on the arm.

He kisses your forehead before watching you enter your house. He waits for a few seconds before beginning his trek back home.

KUROO TETSUROU

Study sessions with Kuroo often involved lots of teasing and not a lot of studying, but you still get a few topics done before it gets to that point.

He’s smart so he doesn’t ask a lot of questions, but you, on the other hand, asks him plenty of questions.

Sometimes he answers you right away, but often times, he just teases you before answering.

“If you don’t even know the answer to this, then how can you possibly pass the exams later, [Name]-chan?”

But you’re not going to take his provocations sitting down… even though you are literally sitting down in his room to study.

“What’s this? Are you implying you don’t know the answer, Tetsu-kun? And here I thought you were supposed to be smart.”

That’s how studying with him usually goes before serious discussions about the topics continue.

After some time, he snaps his books shut to get your attention, then he smiles at you with that shit-eating grin of his. He tells you that it’s time to stop and he needs to take you home, so you can sleep.

“We wouldn’t want you to get wrinkles, now do we? I don’t want people to think I’m dating a grandma.“

You punch him in the shoulder lightly before packing your things with a smile on your face. You know that he’s actually looking out for you.

The teasing and banter continue during your walk, and the laughter staves off the fatigue. Kuroo notices and offers his shoulder for you to lean on if you’re feeling tired, so you take him up on that offer.

For the rest of the walk home, you hold onto his arm and walk in relative silence.

When you get to your house, he lightly shakes you awake and ruffles your hair and pecks your cheek, telling you he’s delivered your troublesome ass safely back home.

You wave goodbye to him as he walks home, while he walks to you as he walks backwards.

USHIJIMA WAKATOSHI

You ask him if he wants to study together for the upcoming tests, and he accepts without hesitation.

You know he’s a pretty smart guy, so it’s kinda moot to study together, but you don’t mind as long as you are together.

The studying sessions are pretty quiet, because Ushiwaka knows his stuff, and you don’t really want to disturb him too much.

But he asks you if you need help from time to time, and he answers your questions very well.

Ushiwaka has to shake you awake a few times if you start falling asleep, and he even tells you to take a nap once or twice. For those times, he pats the space next to him and invites you to rest your head on his shoulders… or against his arm if you can’t reach his shoulders.

If you refuse and he sees you falling asleep more and more often, he asks if you want to sleep over or go home instead. Either way, the studying session is over by that point.

“You can sleep in my bed tonight if you want.“

“Wah, Toshi-kun! That’s too sudden!”

“…?“

Of course, after asking that, you just tell him you’ll go home for the night instead.

Then he offers to walk you home, and actually insists that you accept. He won’t stop until you agree either, so better to just let him do it.

He’ll also wordlessly drape his jacket over your shoulders when he feels like it’s too cold outside. And no, he’s not going to take it back even if you force it into his hands.

The walk home is relatively quiet, but he hovers close to you for the most part of it. Hell, he even leans into your shoulder when you pass by other people who’re staring at you.

Once you’re in front of your house safe and sound, he lingers for a few moments before leaving.

He’s not very affectionate, so there’s no forehead kisses or anything before he leaves, but him give you one of his rare smiles is enough.

TERUSHIMA YUUJI

Teru probably asked you to tutor him, because you’re a smart girl and he wants to spend time with you.

Although the tutoring is more of an excuse, he actually tries to follow along with what you’re saying and ask questions whenever he doesn’t understand something.

And believe me, he asks a lot of questions!

“[Name]-chan, is this English phrase correct?“

“Wait, how did you get the answer to that math question?! Can you show me?”

Partly because he can’t wrap his head around certain subjects, but mostly because he loves hearing your voice.

“Well, it goes like this, Yuuji-kun. First…”

If he’s being honest, he would probably ace every subject and exam if you’re the one teaching them to him.

Of course, he’s not complaining if you only tutor him, instead of actually handling the class. This way, he has plenty of alone time with you.

Throughout the tutoring session, he’s surprisingly calm and a little quiet except for a few groans and moans when he makes mistakes.

Oh, and when he asks you questions, he takes the opportunity to get closer to you, pointing out whatever he doesn’t understand on his book while leaning closer than necessary, but you don’t mind.

Sometimes, he plays around with his tongue piercing, and it gets super distracting for you when he runs it on his lips. Like damn!

Once it gets super late and it’s time for you to head home, he immediately tells you he’d walk you home. And even if you refuse, he’d do it anyway, because he wants you to get home safe and sound.

On the walk home, he’s pretty energetic and loud like his usual self. You actually have to try and quiet him down a few times, so the neighbors aren’t disturbed.

He kisses you on the hand, dramatically saying he hates to leave you and wants to stay with you forever. You both laugh at his dramatics before he heads back home while you head inside.
