Aomine and Kagami - in my sight

Just a little friendship thing from my old Nanowrimo project / repost from AO3

„You might not be my enemy, but you’re not my friend. I have my eyes on you, you’re always in my sight because you’re my opponent. Don’t take it the wrong way but you inspire me to train harder. To become even better.“ There’s noise, too much noise, he can’t sleep. It sounds like someone is cooking, but instead of doing it the right way, they’re obviously trying to make as much noise as possible. Aomine groans in annoyance and buries his head deeper in the fluffy pillows. Suddenly, the door creeks open. „Go away.“ he drawls out, voice muffled and rough from sleepiness. Instead of an answer, he hears muffled giggles – and he smells coffee. He slowly opens one eye and peaks out of his blanket fort and looks into a pair of sparkling ruby eyes. „Uncle Mine! We made breakfast!“ He opens the other eye and pokes his head out from beneath the pillows, slowly coming closer to her and the mug of freshly brewed coffee she’s holding out towards him like a token. Next to her is his son, the stunning image of Momoi, with a knowing smirk he puts a straw into the coffee mug and Sacchi pushes her small arms towards the bed, eager to please her Uncle. He catches the straw and takes a large sip. Then he smiles at the little girl and she squeals, almost spraying him with hot coffee. „Careful Sacchi!“ Daisuke is younger than her by six months, but she immediately listens and hands him the heavy mug. He puts it onto the floor and helps her climb onto the bed, following right after. Aomine’s not even surprised that she crawls under the blankets. It’s not the first time she came into his room to wake him up. When she’s sprawled out on his chest, he sees her hair. „What died on your head?“ Daisuke punches him and Sacchi pouts. „That’s a braid, Uncle Mine! Daddy made it for me!“ „Well, that explains everything, I already thought you inherited Uncle Tetsus bed head.“ „That too.“, she smirks up at him and he bursts out laughing at her remarks – definitely a trait she learned from said Uncle. She’s bouncing up and down on his chest from his laughter and when he calms down, he sits up. „Come on, I will do your hair.“ Sacchi looks unsure, but Daisuke reassures her. „Daddy’s really good with that. He does nice things with Mummy's hair all the time!“ „So that’s what you’re doing when you’re not working?“ That’s Kagami's voice coming from the door frame and he’s grinning, happy to have something new to tease him about. „Daddy, can I let Uncle Mine do my hair?“ „Sure, honey. Obviously, he knows what he’s doing.“ „Heh, I just have a wife that talks about that all the time.“ The darkness is fast to return to Kagami's eyes, he nods and turns around, back to the kitchen and Aomine wants to kick himself. Damn it, why did he have to mention it? But it’s too late now and Kagami will come around. It’s been some time now, and they all slowly learned how to deal with it. Not mention the word „wife“ for example, at least not in this context. Only the word „widower“ is worse.

Aomine grunts and goes back to braiding Sacchis hair. He takes his time, making a difficult french braid with the long, soft hair that reminds him so much of her mother. It must hurt Kagami to look at her and see so much of his wife. Only her eyes are that of her father. But at the same time… maybe it’s also reassuring. Because deep down, Aomine knows, that if something would happen to Satsuki, he would be lost. And looking at Daisuke, who looks just like his mother, he knows that whatever happens, there is a tiny, snarky, talented child that will remind the world of his parents.

They have breakfast in bed. Which means that Daisuke sits in his fathers lap, asking to be fed like a miniature king. And because he’s too lazy to say something and Satsuki is away and won’t nag about crumbs in the sheets, he follows his sons order. Sacchi on the other hand feeds her father, who is sitting in the giant arm chair Satsuki brought home from their honey moon. Looking at the two, Aomine can’t help but smirk. His friend must be pretty hungry by now, going by the fact that most of his breakfast is smeared on his cheeks, nose and chin. But he smiles and there’s no darkness in his eyes and that is enough for the moment.

Uncle Tetsu will come by later, followed by some of their friends. Ryouta, who just can’t stop playing basketball, even though one of his legs is made of metal – he likes to joke about it, telling them to let him score more, as he’s an invalid. Kasamatsu who tags along because his little girl has a giant crush on little Kise Yukio – who’s quite into her too. Maybe Shintarou too, now that they’re having twins he has a lot more freetime as he’s taking less shifts at the hospital.

No, life’s not easy, nothing’s perfect at all. But when he looks at Kagami and sees how he’s smiling again, after losing the love of his life or Kise, who jumps around like he’s never lost his leg… he can’t help but think that life will always go on. And we have to go with it. „You’re not my enemy, you’re not just my friend's friend. You’re not my opponent. You are my friend. You look out for me, I look out for you. We’re always in each other’s sight because we care for each other. Maybe we’re not good at talking about that. But that doesn’t matter. We still know. We care. We are family.“

kuroko no basket + text | part two

[japeneselunchtimerush]

Forever salty that last game cut out this vital scene from the movie

It's like they don't want akashi to find closure in his life ever.

[kuroko-no-cuties]

How Kuroko and Akashi would react to their girlfriend calling them a short king 👑

AKASHI…

Would completely freeze at his desk. He’d slowly turn his thankfully monochromatic maroon gaze towards you before uttering a slightly amused/offended…

“Pardon me?”

You struggle to hold in a snicker as you reiterate your previous sentence. “I said, ‘Don’t overwork yourself My Short King. You should take a break.’”

His eyebrow twitches and you’re not entirely sure what that means. Even though Bokushi isn’t in command any longer, normal Akashi can still be rather unpredictable when he wants to be. That’s why you’re pretty dumbfounded once your normally composed and calm Akashi let’s out a loud “PFFT!” and presses a fist to his mouth to fight the growing smile on his lips.

“You’re rather remarkable darling…I’m…not quite sure how to respond to that…” to which you bat your eyelashes and reply, “We’ll how about by taking a break an spending some time with your darling?”

He snickers once more (wow twice in one setting, what a giggly boy he is today) and stands up from his desk to take you by the hand.

“So be it then.”

Now, Akashi Seijuro is…Akashi Seijuro. He’s not gonna let some little crack his girlfriend made about his height get to him. He will, however, make a conscious decision to straighten his back and hold his head high around you, just to make it clear who is actually the short one in this relationship.

KUROKO…

Would look at you confused but immediately see that you’re trying to tease him and just pretend he didn’t hear you.

You poke his cheek and snicker, “Oi, I know you heard me Tetsu.”~

“…”

“Come on, My Short King, answer the question. Where do you wanna go to ea-“

“Would you mind not calling me that. Please.”

He replies in his usual soft tone as he keeps his gaze focused on the novel in his hands. You bite you lip as you attempt (and fail) at holding in a snort. You can’t really tell if he’s just refusing to play along with your little game or if he’s genuinely upset that you made a crack about his height. You mull over whether you want to take it easy in him or not. You decide to end the short jokes, but concluded that one last little teasing nudge wouldn’t hurt. You throw your arms around him and kiss his temple. “Aww sorry Tetsu-kun. I didn’t mean to make my little blueberry angy~” you coo in a baby voice while nuzzling his cheek.

Kuroko bristled from underneath your arms. If there was one thing that ruffled his feathers, it was being treated like a child. He experienced more than a fair share of embarrassment at getting demeaning head pats from Murasakibara that one time at the street game. And let’s not even talk about how “Dad” picked him up like a toddler in front of his whole team. So yeah…jokes about his stature aren’t exactly his favorite things. He knows you’re just messing with him and trying to have some fun so he decided not to take it too seriously- however that doesn’t mean he’s gonna let you off the hook Scott free.

He closes his book and slowly stands from his desk and you mistakenly take it as a sign to continue on to the topic of food.

“Ah great! So where do you wanna go? I was think about this cute new cafe that ju- kya!”

And just like that the phantom sixth man has you pinned against the wall. His hands in either side of your head. He leans in, slowly to emphasize the height advantage he actually has on you, while biting back a smile at the flustered look on your face.

“Sorry, but who exactly is the short one in this relationship?” He whispers, his baby blue eyes sparkling with mischief.

“Uhh…I…”

You’re at a lost for words. Did your invisible simple vanilla, blue boy Tetsu seriously just kabedon you? And size you up? Who is this kid?

After seeing you’re dumbfounded expression, Kuroko takes it that you’ve learned your lesson. He lets out a soft snort as he gently reaches for your hand and pulls you along out the door.

“Sorry, I decided to get you back but maybe I went a little too far. Anyway, let’s go to that cute cafe you mentioned, Shorty.”

….no seriously….who IS this kid?!

[long-manic-nights]

Akashi is slightly scared of Kuroko.

[active-mind-15]

Bro the Teiko gang gotta have shitty videos of each other from middle school there's no way they don't

[deargravity]

akashi is actually not as good at everything as people like / want to believe but let me not get into that today

[knbmangareread]

It's missing a part of the translation, in my volume it says :

When Kuroko was on the cover of Weekly Shonen Jump, I gave him a pink scarf. I asked a friend 'Is pink ok?' To which he answered 'Usually only handsome guys can wear this color'. Following this discussion i changed it.

It's very important that Kuroko is not good looking. He isn't ugly either, he is perfectly bland, the most unnoticeable and inconspicuous person possible. Beautiful people naturally attracts people's gaze, only the blandest and in the norm people can really go unnoticed.

It was a very smart move on the author's part to have Kuroko be average in terms of height and appearance. Which is why the part of the fandom who want Kuroko to be some angelic looking person with people swooning over him is really funny to me. This is in direct contradiction to who he is, it would render all of his abilities useless.

[knbposting]

LITERALLY WHAT COULD U POSSIBLY MEAN THAT KAGAMI ISNT FUN IM SCREAMINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

[tetsunabouquet]

Hello! Would you like to write something where the kuroko no basket boys (aomine, midorima and Wakamatsu and Imayoshi) are caught on a date with they’re girlfriend and they see there friend act so sweet and gentel with her.I hope that you would like something like this.

You can chose the characters ofc if you dont like then or feel like someone else! Have a good day 🧍🏻‍♀️

Date Night Interupted

A/N: Hereby, a drabble dedicated to each of the 4 boys requested. I hope you all like it! I haven't covered Imayoshi and Wakamatsu in a headcanon or story yet, so its my first attempt at writing their characters.

Midorima

Midorima watched you as you tried hard not to laugh too loudly after he had whispered in your ear; "It's surprising how alluring you can be covered in ketchp." You couldn't with this guy. Who knew the person screaming about being a Cancer, is indeed a cancer and not a tsundere? Once you cracked his crabby shell, he was all mushy and adorable towards you when the two of you spent time together. He was far from a tsundere-like boyfriend, and could be incredibly cheesy from time to time. He kept this side of himself a secret, except to you and his family. Sometimes, you just melted at how cute he could be, or that fuzzy feeling he gave you. You smiled broadly at his sweet smile, eating at the park nearby the Maji Burger; the two of you had taken your order with you to have a picnic in the park. As you fed him a fry, you couldn't help but notice a shadow suddenly looming over you. The two of you looked up, you couldn't help but have your stomach sink. Takao. Takao was crashing your date. You hadn't met him yet as you didn't wanted Midorima to end up getting teased for his romantic side but you had watched their matches plenty of times and could recognize him clearly. "Eeeeh, you're on a date, Shin-Chan?" Takao asked, looking at you as your boyfriend's face flushed. "You're L/n F/n, right?" He asked you kindly, and you were surprised at how gentle the demeanor of the usual upbeat, energetic looking guy was. "Yeah," you replied, a bit embarrassed. "I hope Shin-Chan told you how nice you look. I'll leave you two lovebirds for today, okay?" He said, backing away slowly. You were even more surprised at how respectful he was currently acting. 'Perhaps going public with Shintaro isn't going to be as embarrassing as I thought it would go for us.' You smiled back a bit nervously, and was met with an encouraging smile of your boyfriend's BFF. Yeah, not that embarrassing. "See you on monday, Shin-Chan, F/n-san!" Your smile widened, and your boyfriend let out a small sigh of relief at Takao's retreating form. "Thank god he is gone already, nanodayo." You giggled and leaned against him, and Midorima pulled you close. Not minding if your ketchup stain was now ruining his shirt too. "Well that went well, didn't it?" "At least it wasn't Kise." Midorima mubled before kissing you on the forehead and you giggled once more, completely warm with the fuzzy feeling Midorima gave you.

Imayoshi

"Sometimes, it almost gets annoying how you read others so well." You sighed. Often, words weren't needed when you were dating Imayoshi. It felt great to have such a connection, but it irked you from time to time that you couldn't talk about something simple without Imayoshi immediately knowing. "I know, but the fire twinkling in those eyes is too beautiful to apologize for." He teased, kissing you softly. This was also typically Imayoshi, the guy who knows exactly what to say and do, to make your frustration melt like the sun. Because he doesn't simply reads people and does what annoys them, he can also use it to do exactly what you need. It's why he was such a great captain. "I'm sorry for interrupting something interesting." You nearly fell backwards, if it wasn't for Imayoshi's hold on your waist. You looked up to see Yoshinori Susa, Imayoshi's closest friend on the team, "oh sorry, I hadn't meant to scare you, l/n-san." "It's okay." You replied kindly. "I do hope you have a meaning for this." Imayoshi stated, looking composed but you knew he was slightly irritated at the interruption. "I really am sorry. It's just I got my college applecation letter back, and I just wanted to tell you I got accepted." Imayoshi's mood melted and he smiled at his friend's good news, whilst you beamed at Susa. "That's great! I'm happy for you." He smiled softly and thanked you. "That's indeed good news. Are you planning to join the basketballteam?" "Yeah, Kotegawa already mentioned my name to the coach." He said, and you vaguely remembered him as a senpai who had been a part of the To-Oh basketballteam the year before. "I cannot wait to play against you." Imayoshi stated, and Susa's smile widened. "I can't either, but I'll see you at school. I think there's a lady who deserves your attention more then I do." Susa left with a kind smile, and you politely waved after his figure. Imayoshi tucked a lock of hair behind your ear. "I'm glad we both got accepted in the same college." "Me too," you breathed. You, as well, certainly couldn't wait for college.

Aomine

Your boyfriend had his arm slung around your shoulders whilst the two of you were walking down the street. The well-lit shops all colourful and bright, tempting customers to take a look inside. Music and the buzz of people making it even livelier. The two of you were going shopping and dinner later. Aomine decided it the moment you talked about needing to buy a new dress for your aunt's 50th birthday party, to apologize for your previous getting getting cancelled; he had been injured at a basketball game and had needed to rest. You liked how Aomine never forgot about you, but to him, you were just as important as basketball. As you stepped into your favourite store, it didn't take long to see a familiar pink haired girl, hanging onto the arm of another blue haired male. Momoi and Kuroko, on a date just like the two of you. You giggled as she spotted you, pulling Kuroko alongside her. "Hey, Dai-Chan, f/n-chan!" She chirped, as Kuroko besides her gave off a warm, serene vibe. "Yo Satsuki, Tetsu," came Aomine's greeting. "Hello Satsuki-san. It's nice to officially meet you, Kuroko." "Likewise," came his reply, giving you a small smile. "You here on a date too?" Momoi asked. You nodded and Aomine smiled at you. "Sheesh, I cannot believe you didn't told me." Momoi sighed. "I didn't knew I was obligated to share every bit of my love life with you." That made Momoi pout. "Satsuki, I think Aomine wants to have some privacy during his date." Kuroko kindly supplied, and your boyfriend shot him a grateful look. "Alright, but f/n-chan, do spill everything later." Momoi suggested with a wink and you chuckled. "Sure." You supplied, to which it was your boyfriend's turn to sigh. You giggled as you burried your face into his chest, and slowly, Kuroko pulled Momoi away, trying to talk to her about a shirt he saw that would look very cute on her. "He's a nice one, huh? Good for her." You said, smiling at the couple. "Yeah, Tetsu's apparantly quite the keeper." Aomine stated, before guiding you to the section of formal wear and evening attire. "You are too, you know that right?" You asked him sweetly, and Aomine grinned. "Obviously, I do babe."

Wakamatsu (He doesn't has any canon friends, so I decided to do this instead).

You and Wakamatsu had just taken your assigned seats at the cinema. It featured your favourite actor, so Wakamatsu decided to buy you two tickets and surprise you with them after his game the other day. You had been overjoyed, and you were giddy with excitement as you sat next to your tall boyfriend. After already impatiently stealing a hand of popcorn from the large bucket the two of you had bought for yourselves, your boyfriend next to you froze. As you peered over his tall stature, you could see Aomine sitting down next to him. "Eh?!" Wakamatsu grumbled. "Relax captain, I'm just sitting at my assigned seat. Don't mind me, enjoy your date." He said, surprisingly politer then usual. "I didn't saw you as the type to enjoy these movies." Wakamatsu stated, the dislike still filling his voice. "Mai's in it." Aomine declared. Wakamatsu huffed, but didn't say anything. Thank god the trailers started. As the movie began, you and Aomine were quick to start acting like fans, and Wakamatsu just looked at your enthusiastic face with a smile. The movie went on, and you grew more engrossed in the story, not noticing how your boyfriend's eyes hadn't left you for a single second. And, as the character portrayed by your favorite actor was shot and died at the climax, he wrapped his arm around you as you cried. His hand comfortably rubbed your upper arm, soothing you. You leaned against him as the movie finished, taking in the scent of popcorn and his cologne. Aomine stood up, waving towards the two of you, not having directed a word against the two of you before the trailers started. "I hope your date ends well, good luck." He said, in an encouraging, friendly manner before walking away. Wakamatsu stared at him dumbfounded and you giggled at the expression. "He's still a pervert though. Stay away from him." Wakamatsu muttered, to which you replied with throwing a handful of popcorn at him. "I'll do whatever I want to do. Be civil, my love." You asked as you gave him your big puppy eyes. Wakamatsu groaned. "Fine, but for you baby." "That's more like it!" You said, before you pecked him on the lips. "You're so lucky that you're so cute." Wakamatsu teased as he fed you a piece of popcorn. You winked in return, before the two of you went to his father's car that he was allowed to borrow, taking the remains of the popcorn with you to consumne during the trip. The date ended well indeed.

[hey-cringelord]

there’s a lot of friendly, good-hearted post canon kuroko’s basketball posts i see on here, and while i enjoy them being silly boys in high school i also think a lot about how good it is for them to get away from teiko and from old teammates

kuroko, alongside kagami who is a late-arriving miracle, beats his old teammates. he shows them what lost feels like & teaches them what that sort of misery feels like. i think, from a 15-16 year old’s perspective where nothing much matters except what you know you’re best at, that experience is something that opened a lot of their eyes

& from there they grow apart. they’re friendly, but not friends. tokyo boys run into each other, but there’s none of those chats you get with someone you haven’t seen in a while. it’s an odd smile at best. at worst: tension at their shoulders, familiar, because an old teammate is watching their every move - it’s habit, something adapted when playing together for so long - yet saying nothing.

a lot of “we don’t like each other anymore, but i still think about you on your birthday”

Some more of my sister's knb ocs, feat. Midorima

[yugiohz]

what sets knb and hq also apart (and the hq manga mentions this) is that even though both are team sport, basketball allows individualistic play and one on ones, while that is basically impossible in volleyball and i think both mangakas shows that really well :)

[sylveanh]

the only one who can beat him is him

preorders for my knb charms are open until april 28th !! check it out here: https://snakeberryart.bigcartel.com/
