#koushuu posting

[euyrdice]

koushuu is just like. stands too close to his pitchers. harsh glare gentle heart. honest but not unkind. steady and constant. undyingly loyal. goes out of his way to try to make his friends comfortable. sacrificial. sincere. quietly observant. full of devotion. speaks from and to the heart. burning passion. intelligent and perceptive and yet constantly in his own world. one-track mind. wants to be the one doing the saving, doing the sacrificing, doing the protecting. wants the responsibility, wants the weight that comes with it. “if go up in flames we go in flames together” and “is he trying to seize the world into the palm of his hand?”

i loved reading your comments on koushuu and the kousawa battery in the gifset you made on how nice it is to see eijun have someone so dedicated to him! i totally agree! i really liked miyuki for a long time while watching the anime, until the yips arc and the scene where he ignores eijun in favor of catching for furuya, eventually leading to koushuu catching for eijun for the first time. in both scenes miyuki's treatment of eijun really broke my heart and made it difficult for me to like him. seeing how attentive, sincere, kind, and present koushuu is with eijun is so so refreshing and eye-opening. miyuki and eijun undeniably have a lot of chemistry and are clearly favored by tj, but miyuki can just be so... unkind to him, and treats him like a pest. even when it's done jokingly, it breaks my heart because eijun so clearly admires and desires miyuki's approval- and miyuki is aware of this, and still treats him like that. seeing a catcher treat him like a human, a friend, an equal, the way koushuu does is such a breath of fresh air. theres no power imbalance, theres no chasing, theres no fighting for an ounce of acknowledgement. it's just two people seeing and understanding and supporting each other.

i know you didn't ask for this so im sorry this got so long dsfkdfkjh! its just unusual to see people who share similar recognition for the not so great parts in the misawa dynamic (as a battery and relationship). i hope you are doin good! :)

hey, anon! thanks for sharing your thoughts too! i do agree with what you said and I'm glad someone shares the same sentiments. i love miyuki as sawamura's battery, but adding okumura to the story is refreshing because he's experiencing something he rarely gets to experience with miyuki. if you've finished reading act ii, there was even a time (while sawamura was already the ace) when he mentioned wanting to go pro to furuya. let me repeat, he said his honest feelings to furuya and not to sawamura while sawamura was accidentally hearing this in the background. for me, it was frustrating and sawamura felt the same. sometimes, i do get frustrated with TJ. can't even say that he did a good wrap-up on that part.

but then, if you're going to think about it, this is just one of miyuki's flaws as a character. he's just so bad when it comes to emotional department that if i had to rate him from 0-10, i'd say he's a negative one. during yakushi's match, he admitted that it was his fault but didn't apologize sincerely to sawamura. during yips arc, he admitted that he noticed something's off about the pitcher but kept pushing him and pestering him about his control. even during the match with inajutsu, clearly, sawamura was already getting too pressured and too agitated but he failed to notice. and at that time they were trying to watch sawamura's pitching when they already found out about his condition, instead of saying something positive, he simply told sawamura not to think too much about it because he's an 'idiot'. he rarely praises sawamura because "he's always getting ahead of himself" as he keeps on saying. to make the long story short, miyuki is just emotionally constipated and he himself is aware of it. and while it is one of his character flaws, it made the readers/watchers love him even more. no one wants a perfect character right?

so rather than changing this side of miyuki, i'm glad that there is another catcher who has the same potential as miyuki that was added to the story. okumura is fulfilling the roles that miyuki cannot do as a character, in my opinion, and i am so happy to see this battery. did you ever see miyuki pester sawamura to catch his pitches? nope. okumura does. did you ever see miyuki praise the pitcher for his pitches? rarely. mostly, he would praise sawamura in front of other people or when he's having his monologue but not tell it straight to his face. okumura, however, can do that. if he thinks sawamura did a good job, he would honestly tell the pitcher. did you ever see miyuki stick to sawamura so he can look after him and made sure that he won't overwork himself? nope. although this is quite understandable because of miyuki's position so i am really glad that okumura is there.

if you haven't read beyond what's included in the anime, i suggest you try reading act ii manga. okumura is still fulfilling the role of a good catcher looking after sawamura. because in case some readers/watchers forgot. sawamura is still the MC of the story. he always accompanies sawamura even after the games. when the first years noticed that sawamura was acting strange because of what he heard between miyuki and furuya, okumura was the one who talked to miyuki to speak to sawamura. during the summer tournament games, he always checks sawamura's condition. he always tries to observe the pitcher and tries to know more about him. he's always concerned about sawamura and that really made me happy. with Chris gone, it's like there's another catcher who can dedicate his time to him and it's just so heartwarming. their conversations are also funny and it's really cute that okumura is always beside him.

okay. i think i made my point. now, it's my time to apologize for the long reply. nyahaha! (⁀ᗢ⁀)

and please, anon. let me know who you are. send me a DM so we can talk about this some more. <(￣︶￣)>

btw, in case you are also reading fanfics, you may want to read one of my fanfics that features the mura-mura battery (i kinda prefer to call their battery like this because it's kinda funny). yes, anon. i am shamelessly promoting one of my fanfics. please forgive my audacity. ( ◡‿◡ *)

[terriblesportsimagines]

i'd like to request hcs on what miyuki, chris, sanada, okumura, kuramochi and mima would do to win over/get closer to their female crush/ s/o (could be before they officially start dating or in the early stages of their relationship)

The interminable wait is over! All of the asks are written, now I will post. I don't know when I'll open the ask box, since I really struggled to get these done, but I do hope to open it fairly soon for a much smaller intake.

Enjoy! (I think these got longer with each character I wrote them for... sorry Miyuki~)

Miyuki Kazuya

It turns out that getting you to go out with him was easier than actually being in a relationship.

He’s a bit prickly and he’s not good at connecting with others.  Real social interaction is a challenge and he’s pretty clueless.  He puts in the effort, but feels really awkward with everything.  Tries to go it by himself but doesn’t feel like he’s making any progress so he reluctantly asks his friends.

Not that they know anything, they’re baseball idiots too.  But they brainstorm and come up with the usual cliché things he can actually do. 

He gives you as much of his time as he can, walks you to class or to your club, buys you snacks or drinks.  Listens to what you say and does preliminary research into the things you like.  Patience will be the key here, and being open and honest.  He needs help lol

Takigawa Chris Yuu

He’s nervous, but reasonably confident.  He’s a little shy, but he stretches his wings a bit to try to get you to like him.  Nothing too obvious, but it’s there.

Homework help for sure.  If you don’t need help, then he’ll feign needing yours.  To him, it’s a reasonable way to spend time together without being obvious or making things weird if you don’t like him back.

Definitely goes out of his way to learn about your interests, so he can something to talk to you about that isn’t related to school.  Whether he shares the likes or not, he makes an effort.

Attention is his best weapon.  When his singular focus is centered on you, you feel it.  Despite being subtle, he’s pretty obvious to anyone who knows him.  Ryou undoubtedly pokes at him.

It’s probably not surprising that he can be rather romantic.  He’s a nurturing kind of boy, so it’s not hard for him to come up with ways to pamper you that won’t push or embarrass you.  He’s very sensitive to your feelings.

Sanada Shunpei

Okay so, will he actually have to put in a special effort to win you over?  He has everything going for him – good looks, sense of humor, surprisingly sweet, maybe a little goofy…

I don’t think he does anything special, but he’s a good boyfriend.  He texts you all day, checking in, but also sending you amusing and cute things like memes and baby animal pictures.  As you get closer, he will probably start venting out baseball things to you – this is a sign of intimacy, because he generally doesn’t say anything unless he trusts the other person

Always buying you tiny little gifts.  Little keychains, plushies, figures, candy, food, even if you tell him he doesn’t have to, he keeps doing it, mostly because these little items make him think of you.

Secretly buys a second copy sometimes and hides it in his room so he can feel extra connected to you.

Okumura Koushu

1000% struggles to figure out how to talk to you in the first place, let alone ask you out.  He’s pretty shy when it comes toother people when baseball isn’t involved.  Especially with girls, since he has 0 experience with them, except from them giggling around him which annoys him greatly.

He probably notices you in the first place because you aren’t one of those girls.  You acknowledge him, and smile at him, but you are never over the top, or make him feel awkward.

Seto’s advice is garbage, but somehow Yui’s isn’t?  Koushuu probably would have ignored him too, except he sees how popular he is with girls and the fact that he can talk to them easily.

He starts small, just by talking to you, generally about school, since he’s awkward and doesn’t know what to talk about.  After a few suggestions his conversation expands and as he gets more comfortable he’s a lot less awkward.  His conversation is intelligent, and he’s unintentionally funny in a dry way

By the time he asks you out, you are pretty good friends, and he trusts you.  The step over the line to more than friends isn’t as hard as he expected.  The biggest thing he does to continue to win you over is give you time.  His time is so limited, but every extra second he has goes to you, even if it’s just messaging or phone calls.

Kuramochi Youichi

He’s very earnest and really cool?  He’s good with girls, despite his inexperience.  One could argue that he’s cooler when talking to girls than he is with anyone else

He’s very enthusiastic.  He talks to you about everything, and discusses decisions with you.  You’re not a dick like Kazuya, and have much better sense.  It’s kind of funny, since he, like many of his teammates, don’t do communication that well in general, but with you?  He’s somehow a pro? 

Never lets things fester or sit, and fixes things immediately.  Makes you feel like you can tell him anything and he’s always there to listen to you.

Creates opportunities to do things together, which can be hard on a boarding school campus.  Take turns coming up with the activity, which leads to you learning about baseball, and maybe video games/wrestling (if you don’t already know), likewise he learns how to do the things you like.  Keeps trying no matter how terrible he is at it.

This boy cuddles, so I hope you are okay with that.  Always respectful, but he loves nothing better than to have you in his lap and arms snuggling while you do whatever it is you are doing together.

Mima Souichirou

He’s so intense that he often comes off as scary, nothing could be farther from the truth, however.

He’s sweet and polite and very considerate of his girlfriend.  He’s very focused on baseball so it takes him a little bit to adjust to having to reorganize his time.  It’s a transition, so there is a bit of a rough patch, but he tries really hard.

He’s good at compromise, and he’s pragmatic.  There’s no unnecessary fights with him, even if you get angry, he remains calm and listens.  He’s very good at calming you down

Is very blunt, but also the softest boy too?  Despite his tendency towards bluntness, he’s sensitive.  Is always there when you need him, no matter what.  Likes to take walks with you, and to hold your hand.

His favorite it taking you to the forest for a picnic.  Is unintentionally very romantic lol He doesn’t think about things like that, he just thinks about what you both might like.  He very much values your alone time

Often buries his face into the juncture of your neck and shoulder and just inhales.  You smell so much nicer than his teammates.
