💖 second couple syndrome! one shot event;

˗ˏˋ second couple syndrome ´ˎ˗ when you find yourself rooting for/being more invested in the secondary couple as opposed to the main pairing

˗ˏˋ about this event ´ˎ˗ just like how secondary couples don't get much screen time to develop their story, this event is accepting requests only for characters that are underloved, underappreciated, and/or undervalued. whether it's because they're forgotten by the fandom in general, the fandom itself is underrated, or their canon screen time totals up to six minutes and five lines of dialogue, it doesn't matter. this event is their shot at being the main character and getting the happy ending for once!

˗ˏˋ more about this event ´ˎ˗ going with the secondary couple theme & playing on the fact that this is for the more "forgotten" characters, the prompt requests are going to be based on pairings that would most likely be the usual secondary couple's trope!

˗ˏˋ rules ´ˎ˗ -> this is for underrated characters only. while there's no hard min/max, if i look up your requested little guy and he has more than 4 pages worth of fics on ao3 or his tumblr x reader tag is very much still active, i don't want to see that request!! for ex: don't ask for oikawa or gojo. be so for real with me rn -> please specify whether you want nsfw or sfw. -> the prompts to pick from aren't hardcoded, meaning it doesn't have to be that specific au!! if you want, i can tailor it to canon, or if you kinda get the gist of what i was getting at, you can follow that pattern & create your own 'second couple pairing trope' &lt;;3 -> fandoms i write for: haikyuu, bnha, blue lock, cod, jujutsu kaisen, aot, genshin impact, honkai star rail

˗ˏˋ prompts to pick from ´ˎ˗ -> instead of the ceo x secretary, it's the ceo's right hand man x the secretary's bestie -> instead of the troubled pop star x heart of gold bf, it's the pop star's stressed out manager x pop star's equally stressed out publicist -> instead of the high ranking employee x lower ranked employee, it's the two interns who are both competing for the one full-time offer -> instead of the good girl x mysterious bad boy, it's the good girl's boy best friend (who's been hopelessly in love with her for a while) x the new girl in town who's her complete opposite -> instead of the college tutor x the athlete, it's the athlete's coach x the athlete's professor whose class they're failing -> instead of the dilf x babysitter, it's the newly divorced woman x her new hot neighbor that's always willing to lend a hand -> instead of the down on her luck stripper x rich ceo (who just happens to be at a strip club??), it's the sarcastic nightclub bouncer x babyfaced reader whose real ID he just broke -> instead of the barista x her future sugar daddy, it's the owner of the cafe x the owner of the cafe's biggest competitor -> instead of the lawyer x down on their luck client, it's the police officer x the district attorney -> instead of the mortal x the god, it's the two immortal gods who've had a bone to pick with each other for eons -> instead of the journalist x the celeb, it's the up and coming podcaster/social media star x their number one hater -> instead of the normal girl x the ceo getting into a marriage of convenience, it's the ceo's shopaholic sister x the normal girl's brother who happens to be the deliveryman -> instead of the hot, rich older man x the poor naive girl, it's the hot, rich older man x the spoiled heiress who's not so easy to impress or get -> instead of the maneater x womanizer, it's the happy go lucky lover girl x cute lovable idiot with zero game & has never had a girlfriend ever -> instead of the soldier x the civilian, it's the mercenary-for-hire x spy on the run -> instead of the knight x the princess, it's the king's royal advisor x the princess's lady-in-waiting

˗ˏˋ requests ´ˎ˗

more method acting asks!

HI!!!!! oikawa cameo got the whole squad giggling im glad everyone found it as ridiculous as I did when I was writing it LMFAOOOO

and AHHH i'm so glad it could be a little soft spot when school was getting hard bc that's literally what it was for me when I was writing it <3

ah yes...my beloved levi and sasha truthers....I do believe I promised a little blorbo about the date that levi takes sasha on

@ri-sa20 HI SWEETIE PIE!!!! thank you so so much 😭 it literally does feel like the end of an era. I do believe that method acting is the 1989 of my fics (meaning it's LITERALLY such a magnum opus)

AND AHHHHHHH that's such a good compliment. I tried to make every plot point I was doing at the middle point intentional since the fic was already getting SOOOO LONG but i'm glad to hear that it landed the exact way that wanted to!

thank you for being here and reading this silly little story - i'm sending all that love back!

you read actor au sukuna and be happy with it. i did not write eren and y/n getting engaged in that damn aquarium for someone to ask me for a sukuna alternate ending (he's MARRIED!!! LEAVE HIM ALONE!) (i'm joking but also I refuse to write a sukuna alternate ending he literally already has his happy ending)

and as always, my unsolicited method acting headcanons/thoughts:

eren would write daylight by harry styles about y/n after the show stars airing...if I was a bluebird...I would fly to you....mf is literally a bird anyways

y/n always does short tours bc she doesn't enjoy touring as much bc it just reminds her of how stressed she was

every time y/n goes to one of eren's show he acts EXTRA unhinged - see: taking his shirt off and getting drenched in water by his bass players during only angel - to the point where the fans beg her to come to the show

teddy goes to the shows and has those big headphones on and also sleeps through the entire thing LMFAO he dgaf

after y/n and eren reveal their relationship, everyone KEEPS asking fan account girl how she was feeling and she just tweets a picture of her at the wedding with them like yeah...i've known about this for a while i'm perfectly fine

as side blorbos: I currently have writing the ribbons release chapter from an eren pov AND the levi/sasha date. lmk if there's anything else you would want to see!

[x0401x]

Hello....Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....Thanks...

I've been asked my top 10 before, but never from all of the media I love and I've never been asked to elaborate on why I love them. Not to mention that the list changes as I watch/read new stuff, so it's good to update it. Then again, I don't watch live action that much, so I'm afraid it's gonna be all animanga/books, if you don't mind.

I must say, though, that it was impossible to decide on 10 this time around. So I resorted to listing my top 5. The list is in no particular order, by the way.

1. Kuchiki Rukia

So this one was an instant fave and I don't even think I need to explain much. Badass, kindhearted, A+ sense of humor. Just checks all the boxes. Also love her unique character design.

2. Gilbert Bougainvillea

I strictly mean the book version of him. Gil was one of the very few fictional characters to ever surprise me. I love how unapologetically emotional he is and how he's always making sure the people he holds dear get to live a happy life. The way he's such a "family and friends first" kinda guy and yet nobody seems to realize it simply because he looks like the aloof type is bitterly relatable for me. Also the way he acknowledges how unfair life is for him despite being brough up in an environment that, in theory, had everything to meet all his needs, and yet tries to make the best of it all. And my God, the amount of Respect Women Juice that this guy drinks. Goals as a human being, tbh. (Yes, the books are that different from the anime.)

3. Oikawa Tsurara

I normally don't vibe all that much with characters like Tsurara, but she quite literally opened new horizons for me in fandom. Imagine the dumb, clingy servant girl stereotype turned upside down. You start out fearing that she'll fit into the Mold TM, and before you realize it, she's risen to become an upper officer in command of two clans and is endgame with the protagonist (with three more guys pinning after her). Except this isn't a Cinderella kind of journey; she was always treated by her love interest as an equal and was always portrayed as having immense potential. Her jealousy of her rivals seems comical but is actually valid, as her suspicions always hit home. She's smart and strong and not at all delusional, and the story makes sure to give her a steady growth. She never becomes overpowered, but the protagonist only gets to that level because of her.

4. Takigawa Masaki

Again, book version. Motherfucker just be casually defying every god in existence because y'all can't just try to kill my disciple like that, what the actual fuck. The "Catch These Hands" priest, because he'll punch the shit outta whoever gets between him and the little bitch who tried to harm his students. And then he'll fuck into his shrine in the middle of the woods like nothing happened. His main occupation, however, is to be hot as hell. Truly an icon.

5. Sheryl Nome

Same as with Tsurara, I normally don't vibe much with characters like Sheryl, but holy fuck, the amount of respect I have for this woman. Macross is a franchise that specializes in taking archetypes and tropes and subverting them completely, and Frontier is my favorite because the character handling in this thing is good fucking food.

Sheryl has such an attitude but she can back it up. And she does it in ways that are charismatic, rather than annoying or bitchy. She absolutely never puts herself down and is never portrayed as actually fragile and inoffensive on the inside. The narrative gets points too for never going "she's amazing but she won't ever be as good as the protagonist". And she's cute, sure, but she's also dangerous and is out there to get what she wants. Yet there's so much heart to her. So much passion and admiration for all things alive and for connecting with them through music. She usually only does what she wants but is so ridiculously selfish with the people she cherishes. Easily one of the most extremely complex and absurdly cool femme fatales in animanga.

I read Time Enough yesterday from start to finish (yes I had other things to do, no that did not stop me) and I am still thinking about it. I left a little comment but I wanted to say more. (Sorry if this is a bit incomprehensible, I'm Very tired)

Your angst is always written in such an immersive and impressive way, but this story in particular hit so strongly. I thought it was so well done. Everything Daichi did and felt was so believable. And the feelings of having to move through a life like that was absolutely heart breaking. The relationships were so believable and idk how to phrase it other than genuine? Realistic?

It was just such an intense and beautiful piece, and Daichi's journey/cycle of monotony to acting out to trying to find stability again was so well done and so relatable. I was right along with him at one point like "obviously he has to learn a lesson here, but come on he did! He's trying to live life more!" Only to realize at the end that he still really wasn't, not really, not in the way that really allowed him to appreciate it. It wasn't that he needed to appreciate life by acting more or less predictable, it's that he needed to learn to appreciate life by appreciating his own, by learning to take care of himself, by asking for help and letting others take care of him. I've read several of your stories now where this is a major theme for him and I was STILL too immersed in his mindset to see it right away! That's very good writing imo <3

If you want to answer (ik some people don't like explaining story choices and that's fine too! I have my theories) what moment in that last day was it that broke the loop? Or was there no one moment, but just the process of the day itself and those leading up to it that did it?

First, thank you so much for leaving such a lovely and sincere ask in my inbox. You've got my giggling and kicking my feet like a child on christmas. It means so much that someone like you is reading and appreciating my work 🤍🤍

Second, I dont mind answering at all! I know a few others had speculated regarding the circumstances of the time loop so I can definitely share my decision making process

[Spoilers for literally nearly every chapter of Time Enough below, if you havent read it yet.]

And the answer is... Nothing.

Though that doesnt mean it wasnt intentional on my part, that nothingness means something to me.

The logic of the time loop is simply "sometimes time gets stuck in a loop, and unfortunately this time Daichi is aware of it." There is no real reason why it breaks on that specific day that it does, it could have just as easily broken the day before or the day after or in twelve years.

While I played around with the idea of Daichi having to "break" it in some way, there was no version of that that didnt position someone in his life as more important than another, or incite further questions about the universe. (although it does make me giggle imagining if the second half took a sharp left turn into Daichi and Oikawa hunting and fighting aliens.)

You could read this story as a metaphor for depression or burnout, optionally.

The truth is, every choice Daichi made always mattered. Each day did not come with definitive evidence that it would loop again into the next, it just coincidentally did for approximately two years. As suddenly and jarringly as it breaks in the 11th chapter, that could have been any chapter. Thats why so many end with the 00:00 moment, because it wasn't a given and it was important to mention. What would have happened if it had broken after he's slept with and romanced Oikawa? [Would he have pursued this new connection? left it as a one night stand? how would his life have moved forward after that kind of insane connection as Oikawa would believe he had his time loop experience?] What would have happened if it had broken after Tendou had been hit by the truck? [Tendou would be dead - what will he tell anyone?] What if it had broken after punching Iwaizumi? While he's standing, frostbitten in Iceland? After any random day he thought didnt matter? After he kills himself?

Daichi was never any more safe from his consequences in the loop as he was in linear time, he just got lucky.

And thats the point. How many times have you [the reader] skipped a class because its "boring and repetive?" phone in an essay because its "just" 10%? declined to hang out with a friend you havent seen in a while because "eh, maybe next weekend."

Choices always matter. Even if you think you have calculated the worst possible end, every single day has the ability to dramatically shift the direction of your life if you use it right. There is no such thing as a day that doesnt matter.

As a metaphor for depression and burnout, you're absolutely right. Daichi's loop is broken the moment he tells Suga that he'll let him take care of him. The moment he admits there's a problem and makes a promise he intends to keep. The act of loving and being loved in return is scary and difficult but sometimes it is the only way to succeed. [Its important here to mention that this is not romantic love I refer to.] And that means trying. Agreeing to do something you think is pointless [Daichi doesnt believe a psychiatrist can help; its a time loop] but he trusts Suga anyway and agrees sincerely.

As a story, it was nothing anyone did.

Daichi just got lucky that when the loop broke he was safe and surrounded by people who would care for him.

Free will and individual agency are massive themes in my stories and perhaps thats just a product of my own current age and experience. I think in a lot of ways I havent quite gotten the hang of it myself even if I understand it in my mind. Understanding it intuitively is a lot harder.

But it gets a little bit easier for me when I can write it out and share it with people like you who care as much for these characters and stories and appreciate them in the same way.

Thank you so much for asking <3 Inbox is always open and yall can message me any time if you wanna chat about anything to just scream. [The chickens in my brain will do their best to scream back.]

[alexbutrandomthoughts]

Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....Thanks...

Boy oh boy where do i even start. Honestly it's always hard to pin down my favorite characters across all the fandoms cuz I've consumed a LOT of media,but I'll try to name the current ones (warning, i am such a basic bitch this list is gonna predictable afffff. Probably.)

10. Ai Hoshino (Oshi no ko)

Ngl if you ignore most of the weird shit that happens in oshi no ko, it is such a goddamn captivating story, Ai in particular. Idk i guess i really like the idea of this "ultimate idol" who is a pathological liar (due to honestly unfortunately circumstances) having to maintain this picture perfect image, to the point where people don't even perceived her as a real person. And it's really tragic considering all she ever wanted to is to actually say "i love you" and mean it for once.

9. Killua Zoldyck (Hunter×Hunter)

Was he start of my obsession with white haired characters? Nah, but he definitely contributed. Honestly, sassy brat with a soft spot that can absolutely fuck shit up? Yeah there was no way i wouldn't have been obsessed with Killua the second he got introduced. Honestly i like Gon almost as much, but i prefer moodie baddies to sunshine characters. I would genuinely dedicate another 10 hours minimum to talk about him, but i don't think ppl will care enough to read so yeeah

8. Sunset Shimmer (MLP)

I wasn't really in the mlp fandom, so i have no idea how Sunset was perceived initially (i would assume negatively, but then again idk) so i am going off of the fact my lil sisters used to haTE on her in the first movie, but MAAAAAN I LIKED HER BITCHY SELF EVEN BACK THEN. The former star pupil of princess Celestia???? That left to another world cuz of her own hubris???? AND SHE'S PUNK ROCK???? I mean she got redeemed and joined the main six and all, but overall, probably my favorite mlp character (still mourn the bitchy attitude tho, in that regard i prefer Starlight but i digress)

7. Sans Undertale

I mean. Yeah. I already said I'm basic as fuck but like. At least i don't wanna fuck him. Anywaaay, i guess it's the air of mystery to this seemingly chill guy, who just hangs around and tells bad jokes and somehow aware of the timelines more than the rest, probably related to Gaster in some way, and maybe he's not even a monster cuz monsters don't bleed and he fucking does, what does this all mean TOBY FOX I NEED ANSWERS- and he has arguably the best fight in the entire game, so yknow. Cool guy

6. Gwen Stacy (Spiderverse)

I liked her in "In to the Spiderverse" but i absolutely loved her in ATSV. Her struggles and mistakes felt so real and I'm so glad they decide to focus on her this film (the opening sequence dead ass my favorite scene in the whole movie) and explore her backstory with Peter's death and her father, it's just adding the depth to a character that was already great just UGH chef's kiss

5. Tooru Oikawa (Haikyuu)

God he has such a slappable face, i love him. I knew from the second when the fangirls screamed, i would either hate him or love him. Every scene he was in, he served (pun intended), he slayed and made me cry. I know decent junk of the fandom are avid Oikawa haters but they can honestly suck my dic-

Anyway yeah he is my boy

4. Osamu Dazai (Bungoe Stray Dogs)

Goofy ass detective with a dark past, homosexual rival and who's also a suicidal maniac? Yeah this was tailor made for me. Can you tell i have a type because i definitely do. I just really like mfkas with slappable faces. I am a sucker for redeemed bad guys, who are now try to be good cuz 💫reasons💫. AND i am also weak for mentor apprentice trops (Atsushi/Dazai shippers back off, i bite and definitely have rabies)

3. Satoru Gojo (Jujutsu Kaisen)

Speaking of my obsession with white haired guys. Yeah, I'm not sure what can i even say that haven't been said abt this guy and reasons to love him (fuck u gege) honestly will i ever stop loving side characters who are often silly mentor figures, with lots of baggage, a gay rival and too much angst? I can only say one thing.

Nah I'd win

2. Maomao (The Apothecary diaries)

BSODGWOWBSHSOSNS9WHSOSBISGWJWVSVDIWJWJEJIEHEIEHJEBEIS. Ahem, okay so hands down my favorite female protagonist of all time. God she is just perfect. Istg all u people who never watched Apothecary diaries I BEG U TO WATCH IT PLSSSS IT'S SO GOOD. Even if you don't watch anime, i promise you this show is absolutely worth the time. Maomao is what happens when you write a good no, GREAT female character without the whole anime bs. Like???? She has her own strength and weaknesses and she doesn't need to be physically strong (full offense, marvel) or be "not like the other girls" to be great.

1. Kaveh (Genshin impact)

So uhhhh, you can really blame Will Stetson for this one. I genuinely couldn't have cared less about genshin or this random blond if it wasn't for "Writing on the Wall". It started with a banger ass song, and ended with arguably my favorite character in all of media ever. I think one of my favorite things abt Kaveh, is that compared to some of the other characters in genshin, he's really just a guy. Like bro missed the entire archon quest, mfka was just minding his own business. He is tortured architect and honestly bro has taken so many Ls in life it's kinda crazy. And well the fact that he has "a roommate" just adds more to him. Gay rival and all

Aaaaand that's 10 characters. Honestly i wouldn't call it my top 10 favorite of all time. I probably forgot some of the characters that i used to be obsessed with at some point. I just picked the ones that came first to mind :3

[konohamaru-sensei]

"Du warst ein Polaroid im Regen und mein erstes Lied." (You were a polaroid in the rain and my first song.) | Sayuri X Oikawa

Hello, betcha didn't think this would come round eventually. I've had this plottted in my head for a while, so here it is! <3

This is an OC story with Oi kawa, please do not read on if you hate OCs. I'll tag nothing and I'll put all under a readmore, please just move on, thanks.

“So yeah, she has a boyfriend again now.”

Tooru snipped with his finger against the table in front of him. “That's great for her~,” he sings back. “Why would that matter to me?”

He does not have to see Hajime to know he is rolling his eyes. “I thought you would like a warning. Her boyfriend is working for the volleyball association and is around the national team a lot, so if you come over for the olympics or other…”

“I’ll make sure to congratulate them on their impending wedding.” Even for his usual way of speaking, the sarcasm was especially overflowing now.

Hajime sighed at the other side of the telephone. “Anyway,” he said and sighed again,”It’s late here, so I’m going to go. I thought I was being a nice friend and telling you about it, but it seems like you don’t care, so let’s say goodbye for now.” Though Hajime had said the words, Tooru knew that he didn’t mean them.

“It’s been a long time since then,” Tooru heard himself say. “I don’t have a connection to her anymore anyway.” He waited for Hajime to say something, but the line stayed in this silence that showed that they both knew that Tooru was lying. “Well, bye, Iwa-chan.”

Hajime didn’t even say goodbye. He just hung up.

Tooru let the phone slip from his hand directly onto the bed below him. For a moment he did nothing but stare at the ceiling. What had Iwa thought would happen if he told him Sayuri had a boyfriend now? That he’d cry? And if he had? What would that have mattered?

She was free to date whoever she wanted to date. After all, they had not been a couple for ages and even when they had, they hadn’t really been one. Everything that had happened that year seemed like a movie he had once seen and then decided to never watch again. A distant memory. And that, even though it wasn’t even ten years ago at this point.

People romanticised their first real love. They also, of course, did that with childhood crushes and all, but especially with the first love one had as a teenager. Often you’d long for those very pure feelings back, without a way of turning back the clock and keeping yourself from getting older. Tooru was no different, though he could have really lived with being the exception to this.

How he fell in love with the only classmate that openly disdained him was still a mystery to him. Maybe it was her open honesty about how much and what exactly she disliked about him, or maybe it was the way her face had looked when he saw her play on the field for the first time, whatever it was, it had been quick, strong and without him noticing until it was too late.

There had been a moment in time where they could have been more than two people who occasionally kissed and slept with each other. Where these feelings could have turned into a real blooming relationship with dates and presents and love confessions. At the time Tooru could feel it on his tongue, but it had never quite come out of him, not when Sayuri had always repeated that they would “not be a couple.”

Now, older, wiser, and so far removed geographically as possible from whatever they had been, Tooru understood that Sayuri had been scared, at least a little, of going out with him. He was convinced there were feelings there too, not that she even said that to his face. But there was something about that last time they spoke to each other that told him that he was right.

That April, shortly after their graduation, Tooru had visited Tokyo on his way to Argentina. They hadn’t spoken to each other since shortly before the graduation ceremony, when he had told her that he would move abroad right after for his career. Thin lipped she had nodded away and wished him good luck and what he had actually come to ask her, to move abroad with him, stayed stuck in his throat.

He’d seen her work diligently to enter a good journalism academy, to leave her fathers oppressive house. There had been no way he could have asked her to abandon all of that for him. Tooru’s career was not more important than the goals she was working towards. She wanted to write, portray careers, and she ought to do it.

But then, the loneliness and longing, side effects of loving, had overwhelmed him so much that he had gone to see her anyway. Let Saya give him the address of her apartment so he could go by, talk to her directly. He had gone with high ambitions. He’d tell her how he felt, he’d ask her to come with him.

Now, 8 years later, eyes closed on his back, Tooru could still see Sayuri’s face right in front of his eyes when she opened that door that day. He gave her a little wave and his signature smile and her lips curled for a moment before she threw the door shut into his face again. So much of that.

Eventually, of course, she had opened her door to him again and with a growl stepped back to let him into her apartment. It was small, but completely adequate for a student with her small income. A big room that could be parted by a sliding door hiding the bed, not that Tooru took notice of much of the room at first, he was totally focused on what was in front of him.

One of their great failures as an almost-couple was that they always skipped the talking part, the “lets-define-what-we-are” part and went right into the next step. It had been a few weeks since they’d been together and now that she stood in front of him, her eyebrows furrowed in anger, he could not help but kiss her again. Really, love was stupid and selfish.

The other one of their great failures was that Sayuri never said no to him. From their first kiss to their very last, she had always let it happen. Always sliding herself into him, always letting his hand roam wherever he wanted to go. If she hadn’t at least liked him a little, she would have complained, right? He told himself things like that all the time to keep himself sane.

It was almost like a fever dream to remember now, that night, the morning that followed. As if it had barely been real. They’d gone out for food, brought it all home, sat and chatted a little, but did a lot of other stuff all the while Tooru had wanted to say what had been on his mind for almost a year, but no matter how hard he tried to persuade his heart, the words just wouldn’t come out. 

Maybe it was a fear of rejection.

Finally, when he could not wait any longer, when his flight was so close that even Sayuri lifted her eyes to ask when he would need to go to the airport, in this “by-the-way” fashion that told him that she had been thinking about him leaving nonstop. Finally, then, the words on the tip of his tongue spilled out.

“I want you to come with me.” He had said, very quickly and when he noticed her mouth opening he had added: “It does not have to be now. It can be in a year or two or three. You can study here and I can come visit. I can teach you the language. I don’t care. I want you to come with me someday.”

There were her thin lips again, the ones that had discouraged him so much last time. “Why?” she had asked. 

It was as if she was offering him an oil branch. As if she was saying “Tell me your feelings honestly first”. It was right there for him to take an opportunity of a lifetime and yet, he said.: “Because I think we are good together. Don’t you think so?”

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

His head was screaming at him. No matter how many years passed, this moment still haunted him. What had Tooru expected to happen? He remembered it so well, her eyes darkening and then her face dropping. 

“I don’t think you should say things like that to me.” She had replied coldly. “We aren’t a couple after all.” 

Then, before he could get it together, before he could say anything else, she had already ushered him out of her apartment and closed the door. Other than his dreams and the occasional check up on social media Tooru had not seen her since.

It was alright, of course, that now, years later, Sayuri was dating again. It had been alright if she had been dated a week after he had flown out. Still, the “what if” haunted Tooru and would probably continue to haunt him. Hajime knew this, though they had never explicitly talked about it. That's why he had called, to be considerate. 

How would she react if he came back to Japan and ran into her? Would she stare at him coldly again like she had the last time their eyes had met? Or would she be so over their thing, that she would have reverted back to hating him? And did it really matter if she liked him or not?

Tooru sighed and grabbed his phone again. The only way to find out was to meet her again and he knew that eventually they would do exactly that. Maybe there could come a day in which they would be alright with each other, when their youth was such a distant memory that neither of them would still cling to it. 

Maybe then he would finally be able to tell her what he wanted to tell her then, even if it was a confession that's way too late.

Facade Pt. 1

Oikawa x fem!reader

Fluff

Synopsis: Oikawa asks you to be his fake girlfriend, supposably to scare off fangirls...

A/N: I am describing Y/N as myself (🤪) because describing with all the details up in the air is hard and awkward. So just replace details with your own preference.

masterlist pt. 2

You barely know Oikawa Tooru, yet you are, standing completely dumbfounded, while he begs you to be his girlfriend. Let's rewind a bit, shall we?

{3 weeks ago}

You had history class with Oikawa. He sat behind you, constantly causing trouble. In fact, he got you in trouble several times, by passing notes and throwing paper. You were also the brand new manager of the volleyball team. He convinced you after class one day. How? You have no idea. Anyway, your class was assigned a group project and you and Oikawa were paired together. You guys decided to meet at a local cafe to go over the details of the project. Long story short, he messed around a lot, delaying the project, but you guys got it done. When he was paying attention, he was quite helpful. He is actually very smart; a lot smarter than people might think. Anyway, y’all presented the powerpoint in class and went on with your lives. However, that happened to be your first day as seijohs manager. You snuck into the gym in an attempt to go unseen, however someone noticed. As soon as you stepped foot into the gym, a loud cheery voice called out, “Y/N! Hey!” You winced at his the loud volume echoing through the room. You walked over and raised a weak wave.

“Boys! Gather round.” The coach yelled, “This is your new manager, Y/N.”

“Hey, thanks for helping out.” A guy with spiky hair and natural scowl said. The rest of the boys echoed a couple of yeah’s and thanks. Oikawa however slung his arm over your shoulder.

“I talked her into coming.” He smiled proudly.

The spiky haired guy grabbed Oikawa by the ear and dragged him away, “Stop trying to take credit for other peoples work!”

“Ow, I’m not,” he whined as he rubbed his ear. He mumbled under his breath, “You’re so mean.”

“Alright that’s enough. Back to practice!” Coach sent them back off to practice, while he taught you the ropes. And that was your first day. You’ve been manger for 2 weeks now and here we are

—

You’ve talked with Oikawa a little more, but you didn’t know him on a personal level. Yet, as you go to walk out of the gym, Oikawa stops you. 

“Hey, can I talk to you for a second?” It is just the two of you in gym. Oikawa always stays late after practice. You aren’t sure why, but you always stay little later with him. Maybe it’s because you want to clean and lock up when he’s done (of course he goes a lot later than you stay). 

Or maybe you hope that one night he won’t over work himself... 

Anyway, you look at him, confused, “Uh, yeah sure.” 

He looks away, standing tall, trying to look confident. However it’s clear he just wants to avoid eye contact, “So, I have a small favor to ask of you.”

“Um, okay?” 

“Well, you know valentines day is coming up and of course the girls completely swarm me,” he sighs, as if it’s some great burden to be loved by everyone, “Anyway, I was wondering if you wanted to pretend to be my girlfriend for a little while, just through valentines day of course.”

You practically choke on air at his request, “I’m sorry?!”

He finally looks you in the eye, “Oh come on, it’s nothing fancy, just keep up a facade you know.”

“Why do you need me? Wouldn’t you lose your precious fangirls?”

“That’s the point. February is such an overwhelming month. Girls try to give me things and crowd me anywhere I go.”

“Don’t they do that anyway?”

“I mean more than usual. It’s so annoying. I can’t even come to practice in peace.”

“Wow, the great Oikawa Tooru being annoyed by attention. Who would have thought.”

He dramatically gasps, “How rude. You’ve been hanging out with Iwa-chan too much”

You roll your eyes, “Look Oikawa, I don’t know. It seems like a lot.”

“Come on, please Y/N,” He whines, hands clasped together like a child begging for a puppy, “It’s just for a little while. It will keep the girls off of me. Plus it’ll get my parents off my back and-“ His eyes widen, realizing his mistake.

“Oh, so this isn’t just about too much attention. You want to please your parents?”

“Well, I mean yeah, that’s a plus.” He rubs the back of his neck nervously.

“Oikawa! What are they gonna say when this little charade is up? Huh? How long did you plan on making me keep it up? What do I even get out of this anyway?”

“Y/N please! It’s just for a month I swear. Just to get them off my back for a little while. Please, I need you.” He is now on his knees, pleading, “I’ll buy you coffee every morning. I’ll bring you flowers and pay for meals. Uh, I can walk you home? Please, I’m begging you.”

You think about it for a minute. You feel bad, because you understand the feeling of everyone being on you for being single. Plus, the fangirls can be overwhelming, even for him. But lying for a whole month to everyone? Ugh, you don’t know what to do! A month isn’t that long, right? And him paying for meals and coffee does sound nice. Screw it, “Fine.”

“Really? Oh my gosh thank you, thank you!” He springs up from the floor, bowing profusely. 

“But only if you stop overworking yourself.”

He stops, looking confused by your request, “Uh, what do you mean?”

“You know what I mean. No more staying super late at the gym, working yourself to the bone. Get proper sleep and food. When I leave the gym, you leave with me, got it?”

His eyes dart back and forth between the floor and the wall behind you, “But-but I need to practice.”

You cross your arms, “Fine, then I guess you’ll have to find another fake girlfriend.” You turn to start to leave.

“Wait! Wait, fine. I won’t stay late anymore.” He hangs his head, almost in shame.

“Good. Then I guess we have a deal.” You both shake hands, “Now clean up and go home.”

“What?! Why do I have to clean up?”

“Because you were the one who made the mess. Now hurry up, I’m tired.”

He mumbles something unintelligible under his breath and starts cleaning up the gym. When he’s done you both walk home together. And that is how you started “dating” the famous Oikawa Tooru.

[burningthetree]

1, safe and warm for 5, 10, 34 (or really your favorite thing about your style), and 45 for the fic questions!!

much love 💖

Evie!! I'm booping your nose right back <3

1. What fic of yours would you recommend to someone who had never read any of your work?

I think either one of my Sakuatsu one-shots or my longer Sakuatsu fic. I wouldn't recommend the Bokuaka one because it's MCD and also incredibly long. If you like MCD, then by all means, go ahead with the Bokuaka one. Otherwise safe and warm.

5. What do you wish someone would ask you about safe and warm?

I put a lot of thought into the character constellations. I struggled a lot at first choosing which characters to write about – I had the idea for the plot, I knew I wanted to write the story, but I had like…I think nine or ten different character constellations for it and I couldn't decide, until I ultimately settled on Sakuatsu + Kuroo (with Iwaizumi and Ushijima as the side characters/antagonists (more or less)). For our main trio, I mainly connected them to their school banners (Atsumu -> we don’t need the memories, nasty of me considering he has amnesia lol, Kuroo -> connect, Sakusa -> effort; and this all neatly connects with their motives and actions in the story), as well as some canon elements (like Sakusa thinking that Kuroo looks like a con-man, so I made him a con-man because it fits his character best). For Iwaoi, I thought that love would be a great motivation, and for Ushijima, he just has a vendetta against Oikawa which is a fun play with canon. There’s going to be more characters but I’m not going to spoil it, but I spent at least two weeks on constructing the characters like this until I was satisfied with it lol

10. How do you decide what to write?

It’s always very much dependent on my mood. Like I need to be in the mood for a certain story in order to actually make progress on it, otherwise it’ll just be extremely frustrating (hence why I often have multiple stories ongoing at the same time). I also never write out of order for a story, so I go pretty much chronologically safe for a few dialogues that might come up at a later point, but never a fully fleshed-out scene. So if I’m in the mood for the next scene in a fic, I’ll write that. If not, I’ll write something else, and if need be, start a one-shot that I may or may not end up posting

34. What aspects of your writing are inspired by/taken from your real life?

I draw a lot of emotion from real life because it makes it much easier to write certain scenes. Like, if there’s a highly emotional scene (there were plenty in forget me not), I will connect it to something I had to go through irl and relate it to how I felt in that situation to make the writing process of describing those intricate and delicate emotions as best and relatable, and realistic most of all, as possible. That also leads to me massively projecting sometimes and trauma dumping in my writing but no one will ever really know for sure what is fiction and what isn’t lol

As for my favourite thing about my style, I use alliteration a lot because it makes me ridiculously happy, or any other literary devices like metaphors or similes or asyndetons/polysyndetons, all these kinds of things to convey subtle meaning through language use that I am absolutely obsessed with because of studying linguistics. So maybe that’s my favourite thing.

45. What's something you've improved on since you started writing fic?

I started writing fic when I was ten, so…almost 13 years ago so there’s a LOT that I’ve improved on because obviously age makes a huge difference. I got better at understanding the characters and their ideals and I also got a better grasp on canon, which (I think so at least) gives me the ability to write the different relationships better and draw out the scenes/story a lot more than I was able a couple of years back. I also used to write on a very irregular basis, and I am now actively trying to write every day or at least take notes on my stories each day so I don’t distance myself from it too much if life gets busy. Something I also learned is to properly draft and outline my ideas to assure that massive writer’s block doesn’t happen (it still does, sometimes, but not as bad as before).

[imaginethathaikyuu]

kea anon here to say that i’ve only read 1/16 of the fic (i’ve been busy orz) but i love it already. the dialogue flows nicely—and the man at the door… that’s… that’s keiji isn’t he?? i can’t wait to find out. although you said yachi is ooc, i feel the way you’ve written her is how she would turn out if she became a con person. i don’t know how to put it into words proper but i’ll do my best. the signature of yachi is that she’s always nervous. you’ve somehow managed to keep that essence of her by bringing in tanka’s sister (i forgot her name). comparing the two, yachi feels restless. her snappy dialogue, her quick actions, and even when she’s careful (as con man need to be), she’s also… not? like, again, something about the way you write her retains that core—her nervousness, and i can tell she’s really just doing this because she’s desperate.

because of her nervousness, she tends to idolise those who aren’t, and basically, to me, she idolises people easily. slipping in that tidbit between her and haikyuu managed (i forgot her name) was genius in showcasing that.

so far, i’m not that deep to give an impression of reader, but from description alone, she acts like such a boss AND she also is so sly??? because instead of chasing yachi away when she followed reader, she even let her into the house, and coincidentally (which is too coincidentally), she was there when yachi needed an out from the police. when i first read yachi getting caught, i initially thought that reader bailed her since she’s aware of yachi’s true nature, so i was surprised reader helped her and had this… unsettling feeling in my gut. like. reader is definitely the one with control here. yachi is like a prey walking into a trap.

the story is really good! i like it so far — keiji enthusiast anon (kea)

ok what if i cried??? i would pay actual money if every person who read my fics sent me asks like this. like u dont even understand how exciting it is to read messages like this it makes me so happy and just makes me so proud of my work and so excited to keep writing. it literally is life changing!!!! i want to go write five thousand words now!!!!! it makes me love this story sm!!!!!!

thank u so much for complimenting the dialogue that is literally the hardest thing for me to write so that means the world. and im so glad u think ive done a good job at keeping yachi herself<33 adding saeko as that side character was a way last minute idea that literally completed the fic, i think originally i had given that part to oikawa LMAO but saeko fit my needs so much better. i love her<3

im OBSESSED with ur live reactions here ,like this is so fun...especially cuz i know all the things u dont >:))))

yachi is EXTREMELY innocent!!! shes nothing but a ball of anxiety thats wrapped up in faux confidence and an i know everything attitude. shes the type of person that NEEDS guidance and assistance even though she does not want it!!! like she thinks she is in control of everything even though shes literally a puppet on a string. like this girl is a sim. but she is trying her best :') shes literally just surviving u know

reader is definitely The Boss...a bit of a trickster if u will...but that is all i will say until u get further in;)))

It always comes back to you - chapter 1

May 28

“It’s tradition. You can’t break tradition Mari.” Matsukawa says, getting in front of you forcing you to stop walking.

You cross your arms and look the other way, “And you promised we would all go to college together but look how that turned out.”

Matsukawa groans in frustration, “Mari.”

You sighed. Matsukawa it’s the most laid back of the group. He doesn’t give a fuck about anything and goes along with any shennaging we come up with. And by we, I mean, Hanamaki and Oikawa. You make eye contact with Matsukawa and notice his clenched jaw and piercing eyes looking through your green ones. It takes a lot for Matsukawa to get mad and he slowly getting there.

You feel Iwaizumi wrap his arm around your shoulder. “Oikawa leaves for Argentina July 1st and Mattsun moves in to his dorm August 1st. You, Makki, and I start classes August 15. And if I remember correctly, we have 3 out of 5 classes together.”

And Iwaizumi it’s the parent of the group. “At the end of the day it is your decision. You’ve always hosted our sleepover—” “Excuse me? I live at the house the too! I host too” Makki, your twin brothers, says joking. A lot of people assume Makki to be lazy. And it’s true to an extent. He lazy with things he doesn’t care for. But the sleepover, that something he truly cares for. For the past 2 years, since we started this tradition, he has always helped by cleaning before and after, getting the snacks and dinner ready, and pretty much anything.

“8pm and I pick the movie first.”

Matsukawa smiles at you, kissing your forhead, “Anything for Princess Mari.”

We all continue walking together to our houses since we live near by each other. The first person to reach their house it’s, Oikawa Tooru, then Iwaizumi Hajime, then Matsukawa, and lastly me and Makki.

Makki and I moved to Miyagi before we started junior high. That’s where we met Oikawa and Iwaizumi. Actually, Makki became friends with Oikawa and Iwaizumi and I kept tagging along in the background for the first year. It wasn’t until Seijoh that I felt like I belonged.

The boys met Mattsun when they joined volleyball club. And that’s when everything changed. Mattsun was the first person to include me in everything. He always pulled me into the conversations, asked about my thoughts and opinions. He is actually the one who came up with the idea of the sleepover. We had finished our first year and to celebrate we decided to throw a sleepover and we kept doing it for the past 2 years. Matsukawa Issei, he is my best friend. I mean, all the boys are my best friends but me and Issei have something special. The day we met, I felt connected with him. I like to believe he is my soulmate. Not in a romantic or sexual way. I never had feelings for him like that. But he always been there and he understands me. I don’t have to say a word and he knows what I am feeling, even when I don’t. I like to joke that our souls are connected in one. But now less than 12 week, he will be leaving me. And Oikawa will be leaving in 5 weeks. And Iwaizumi will be leaving me too. He doesn’t know- none of the boys know that I know that he is planning on moving to California next year, so I have one year left with him. We have 5 weeks before our groups get taken apart and I’ll make sure it’s the best month.

---------

I have a small story that've been stuck in brain for a while. 5 best friends who have one last summer before college. I really think Seijoh 4 would've been the best group to have as bffs. prove me wrong. But come join me in this story where you spend one last summer with seijoh 4 and you may or may not fall for one of them before they leave. ;)

[lunaevangeline]

I came by because I saw your ask game and I just felt the need to send this and let you know the fic that I will always remember you for as a writer...

These lines are from your Oikawa fic "Drown in Space".

"You’ve always prayed to god, to every god you know, and to the universe to not take him away from you."

"You prayed to the almighty entity and they granted your wish. They didn’t take his build, but the universe took his mind and soul."

"You didn’t realize that you lost him since the first time his footprints left the ground. Because he loves you and adores you; but not as deep as his passion for the universe, his fondness for the unknown. You can have his body but you can’t have his soul."

And this line...

"He was born with an undying passion for the eternal void and until he died, his eyes would still search for the stars."

The first time I read this, I felt my heart break and shattered into pieces. I was hopeful at first that there would be some kind of a twist that Oikawa would return to you (heart, body, mind, and soul) but it didn't. Reading it also made me angry (not of you) and frustrated at the fact that you lost the love of your life not because of some other person who stole them from you, but because the universe decided to intervene and took Oikawa's soul with them.

I mean, we're no match if it's the universe who is against our love story. Going up against them only leads to misery and tragedy (most of the stories I read said so)

As much as I love happy endings, I swear this fic made a great impact on me. Most people I know would only consider a fic or story "a masterpiece" if the main characters ended up happy together. But there is something beautiful in tragic stories that makes me hook with it even with the knowledge that it'll hurt me in the end. Maybe because I read too many happy-ending stories (and I rarely read tragic/angst fics) that when I finally had the courage to read sad-ending fics, that story will last in my mind and heart even after reading it for so long.

p.s. but I'd still prefer reading happy-ending stories because my life and the world are already miserable, I need to get those fluffy scenarios even if it's only in my imagination XD

ELLEE ELLEE I'm crying over your long description 😭💕 thank you for letting me know, if I can choose one fic between all I've worked on before, this one will definitely win.. and since this includes two of my most beloved components (Tooru and the universe). This is also the only fic that was proofread, by my sweet Kat @/sweetkoshi (she helped me a lot and deserves the credit!)

Indeed it was heartbreaking he was taken by the universe itself, I mean if it's a person you can still compete but if it's a passion or something deeper you can't argue </3 I was inspired by reading many successful scientist stories and even witnessing them through my own eyes; how they have a family but they put their passion for astronomy as a priority.

I can see their eyes sparkle every time they talk about their own research like they're living their childhood dreams. It's really cute because you can see the 30s-50s years old rambling about the alien hypothesis, the black hole imaging, the star's inner structure - that they barely can touch, and for those, I really adore the gleams in their eyes. I can spend hours talking with them outside the lecture and they're more than welcome because it's truly their passion. One professor who's in charge for teaching observational astronomy was really nice. He gave us snacks during the observation night and he spent time in the observatory during the weekends. He told us that one day her 5 years old daughter threatened him that she will search for another daddy if he doesn't come back home during that weekend.

They love their family but not as much as their passion, spending nights in the observatory but only a few days a month or even a year in their home. Some of them still maintain a good relationship with their family but some have their family torn apart. Because they already have their own home, the laboratory: the universe itself.

Anonymously or not tell me what passage, fic, line of narration, or anything you remember me by as a writer.

[angelplummie]

Okay so like for starterssssss, I love getting represented as a chubby gal 🥺🥺 so I love you for writing that last Oikawa imagineeeee 😩😩😩

Soooo, I was wondering if I could request a plus size reader that really likes Kuroo, (and he’s like a super cliché bad boy��🏽) but he’s too embarrassed to be seen with Y/n. So she starts to hit on his friend or try to make him jealous. (I want you to add your own little idea here! But likeee, make her a baddie 😘😘)

Thanks baby 😚

HE’S A SCUMBAG DON’T YOU KNOW

KUROO X CHUBBY F!READER

Angsty?? kinda, a pinch of suggestive stuff

masterlist

post girlboss was referring to

a/n:i decided to go for emo / anger issues / definitely has punched a hole in his wall kuroo, just cuz i love writing losers, and i love seeing grown men cry. reader is like 20/21 just like college age yk, kuroo is 23 as stated in fic. p.s where my artic monkey hoes at

warnings: swearing, mentions of sex n specific sexual acts, suggestive stuff, uhhh bad boy but he’s not a (bad boy) he’s just a (bad) (boy) he’s just no good, like no fr never date guys like this, he may SEEM COOL and give you the dick but girl you will be so embarrassed once u realised u gave up the kitty for a man that genuinely believes tame impala and mac demarco are unheard of and calls himself an empath even though he’s mean to his mum every time she comes over to help with the laundry and has manipulated every girl he’s ever been in the vicinity of but i digress! on with the story!

“Kuroo-!” you yelped in surprised, bed bouncing beneath you. The second he had thrown you down, he ripped off his shirt and made a noise of frustration when he couldn’t shed his skinny jeans fast enough. Brows furrowed, he began hopping furiously to yank them off.

You laughed, much to his annoyance.

“You’re gonna hurt yourself if you keep up with that. What’s the rush?”

He sighed, and carefully pulled them off his ankles. Standing up straight, he seemed to have composed himself, with that cocky smirk on his rugged face. Your eyes trailed down his lean, long body. It was all you could do not to scream, he was so gorgeous. He took a few sweeping steps to where you lay, and got right on top of you, hands either side of your head. His eyes bore into you, it made you squirm internally, not that you would ever admit it.

“Just want you so bad, kitten.”

You barked out a laugh as if your heart didn’t jolt at his stupid pet name. It was such a stupid name, but coming from him it made you melt. Again, not like you’d ever admit it.

“Ew, Tetsu don’t call me kitten, it’s cr-“

He cut you off by leaning down and kissing you, you could feel his snake bites against your bottom lip. He groaned softly, shoving his tongue down your throat. He tasted like his sour apple vape, and his hair was soft when you ran your fingers through it. You could barely contain your butterflies, eyes squeezed closed.

“Come on babe, you know you like it.”

No matter how many times you and Kuroo hung out, it always felt so fresh. Maybe it was because he was exciting, or because he was a little bit wild, you didn’t know.

He leaned down closer to you, getting on his elbows, deepening the kiss. He pulled away and smirked at your breathlessness. With a slender, ring adorned hand, he reached beneath your top and cupped your tits over your bra. He gave them a sharp squeeze and started placing chaste kisses on your neck. He was considerate like that, didn’t leave hickeys because he knew they’d be hard to cover for you. He groaned as he jiggled the fat of your boobs in his hands,

“God, you have the nicest tits, babe.”

You had been dating for nearly 3 months now, if that was what it was. To be honest, you weren’t really sure what you were. You hang out all the time at his or your place, there was rarely a time when you didn’t have an ache between your legs, one way or another. He didn’t really take you on ‘dates’ but chatting to him was fun in itself, you didn’t need to go out to do that. He didn’t necessarily say romantic stuff either... but he didn’t not say romantic stuff either? He beat up your ex at a party one time! That had to mean something right? He exactly wouldn’t tell you how he felt but he showed you, kissing your cheek or tilting your chin up to look at him or kissing your neck or feeling you up. But that usually led to sex, so you couldn’t be certain. It wasn’t like you only screwed though, you watched your favourite movies together... although the last couple times he just started fingering you. You showed him your playlists? No no, he showed you his playlists, his sex playlists. There seemed to be a common theme here. But... there were times, afterwards, when he would pull in you so tight, tell you how good you were for him, how well you did, how pretty you looked. Any doubts you had were gone after a few hushed words on his tobacco reeking rickety old bed. You’d never really had a relationship like this before, but you assumed it was just because Kuroo was so chill. You were probably boyfriend and girlfriend, he just didn’t feel the need to announce it, he was laidback like that. So what if you guys had a lot of sex? Weren’t you a new couple? Wasn’t this just the honeymoon stage were you can’t get your hands off each other? You didn’t want to seem high maintenance and nag, so you let it be. He was sweet enough to you, right now everything was good.

Until it wasn’t.

A clatter sounded downstairs, the door slamming open against the hallway wall.

“Kuroo! Hey man, I brought some California!”, a voice called from bellow.

Kuroo broke away immediately, spit trailing from your neck to his pink lips.

“Shit, shit, shit, shit,” Kuroo mumbled, pushing off the bed and scrambling the pick up his discarded clothes and shove them back on.

You sat up, disgruntled, rearranging your bra strap from were he’d kneaded at it.

“What’s wrong? Who is that?”

He shot you a glance before continuing to yank back on his jeans.

“Uh, so change of plan, I can’t do tonight. I need you to go home. Discreetly.”

What?

“What? Tetsu, I’m already here,” you scoffed.

What was going on?

Why was he acting like this?

You had never seen him so... frantic.

“I know babe, and I’m really sorry about that, but my friends are here early than I said.”

“So? Can’t I meet your friends?”

He didn’t reply for a moment, just let out an exasperated breath, zipping up his fly.

“Well, yeah you can meet them, just not with me. I don’t want them knowing that I-“

He cut himself off, but you had heard enough to understand.

There was a beat of silence, only disturbed by Kuroo’s friends calling for him.

Your mouth hung open, and you scoffed in shock.

You shouldn’t be surprised really. It’s so obvious now that you think about it. So that’s what this was. That explains everything. He didn’t really like you, he was just using you. That’s why he didn’t take you anywhere, or why he didn’t show you he cared. It was because he didn’t. He wasn’t “afraid of getting close to people” or “emotionally distant”, he was just upfront about not giving two shits about you aside from your vagina. I guess he didn’t want his friends to know he was furiously screwing a fat girl any chance he got. He was embarrassed of you. You were something to be ashamed of. Your stomach jerked as you got to your feet. You were pissed, but that didn’t mean it didn’t really hurt. You had liked him. A lot.

“What the fuck is that supposed to mean?”

You could see the panic in his eyes, it was quite funny actually. Of course you new what it meant, but it still made you feel a little better to watch his eyes widen like that, to hold a shred of power over him.

“I mean- well I didn’t- come on babe you know I didn’t mean it like that-“ he laughed nervously, not noticing the footsteps in the landing. You rolled your eyes. You may have been naive, but you certainly weren’t going to fall for his shit again. Whatever he spouted.

“Don’t give me that bullshit. Just say it, your embarrassed of me.”

“Y/N, please, don’t you think-“

Two men burst through the door, one with spiked grey hair and one with fluffy black hair.

“Kuroo! What the hell are you doing up here we’ve been-“ the grey haired one, stopped when his eyes went from a shirtless Kuroo to you.

Your eyes flickered to Kuroo, he looked mortified.

“Ah. I see. Well, Akaashi, we better give these two some time, we can just-“

“Oh no, I was just leaving,” you grabbed your jacket from on top of his chest of drawers and turned back to the two men, putting on a big smile, adrenaline and fury spurring you on.

“I’m Y/N, by the way.”

Your eyes shot to Kuroo, who looking like get was about to shit himself.

“You probably haven’t heard of me, me and Kuroo have actually been having sex for three months. He kept it a secret because he’s embarrassed of me. We should hang out soon though!”

“Y/N-!” Kuroo yelled, exasperation clear in his tone, but you were already descending the stairs.

He came into the hall, hands rubbing his temples.

“Y/N just come talk for a second, I can-“

But he was cut off by the door slamming.

You got in your car parked outside and sped away.

The whir of the engine and the monotony of the roads cleared your mind a bit, a mist of anger still remaining.

You can’t believe you let yourself be tricked. you were a fully grown woman, but you had been reeled in hook, line and sinker. Not only had you been reeled in, you have been reeled in by a man that still had tik tok LED lights in his room and a fucking monster can collection at the age of 24 fucking years old. The more you thought about him, the more you realised how much of an emo loser he was. Of course you were still hurting, but it was more of the angry hurt you feel when it turns out your crush is homophobic or something (been there done that, don’t ask). He was a waste of oxygen, you had decided by the time you made it back to your apartment. A waste of perfectly good space that could most definitely not get the kitty anymore. You got inside your house, pulled on some comfies and got on facetime with your friends.You told them all about what happened, and they passionately bitched about him with you, confirming your suspicion that they never liked him in the first place. They also told you to forget about his existence, he wasn’t worth a slither of your brain power, he was dirt compared to you. All in all, you felt marginally better, saying goodbye to your friends while they still giggled about how stupid Kuroo’s hair was.

This was just a speed bump, you thought as you tucked yourself into bed, you would get over this.

Fast.

“Who’s Bokuto been talking to all night?” Yamamoto leaned over to ask Lev, shouting over the blaring music.

It was a week after you had thrown Kuroo to the curb, and he was out with a couple of volleyball friends, some from Nekoma, but there was also Bokuto with them.

“I’m not sure. I think it’s Y/N something? She’s in class. She’s pretty chill.”

Kuroo’s ears perked up, and he turned around to face his friends up against the bar.

“Bokuto’s talking to who?” he said through gritted teeth.

“Y/N. She goes to my-“

“I know who Y/N is,” kuroo snapped, taking a swig of the beer in his hand and scanning the dance floor for either one of you. He found bokuto first, shoulder against the wall, holding a drink as he leant down to have you whisper something in his ear. That’s when Kuroo paid attention to you. You looked... you looked gorgeous. He felt jealousy creep up inside him. How many times had you been out looking like that since you broke things off? How many guys had you slept with since? How dare Bokuto chat you up when he knew you two had been a thing? Wasn’t he meant to be Kuroo’s friend? As Kuroo wound himself up, you and bokuto continued your extremely pleasant conversation.

“I just wanna say, sorry about Kuroo. He’s a real bonehead, but we’ve been friends since high school so I can’t ditch him.”

You snorted into your cocktail.

“What?”

“Bonehead?”

He frowned and straightened up indignantly.

“Yeah, and? What’s wrong with bonehead?”

“No no, nothing, it’s just very Legally Blonde.”

He beamed down at you.

“I love Legally Blonde!”

“You do? Me too!”

This big beefy man was very cute, you had been talking for nearly three hours now, but you never ran out of things to say. And, aside from the obligatory introduction compliments, he had not made any move to try and get you into a wendy’s bathroom as quick as possible, which you couldn’t say of yours and kuroo’s first meeting.

He had dreamy eyes, you noted as he smiled for the nth time that night.

“Whose your favourite-?”

“What the fuck are you doing man?”

You glanced scathingly over to the familiar face of your old fling.

“What?” Bokuto asked back, clearly done with his friends bad boy shtick.

“Why are you talking to her when... when you know?”

“What’s there to know? I’m talking to her because I want to, and she wants to.”

He looked over to you for approval.

“Right?”

You nodded, a little nervous. You hated Kuroo’s guts, but you knew how weirdly possessive he was, you didn’t wanna cause trouble for Bokuto.

“See? Now I don’t think she wants to see you, right?”

He looked at you again. You nodded again.

“Ok? You guys are over, now are we done?”

Kuroo huffed. His eyes flitted from Bokuto to you, remembering you were there most likely, and he scowled.

“No, we aren’t done, what are you trying to pull anyway? Trying to piss me off by talking to someone I know? Are you really that petty? Well, your little plan is working, so just-just stop, ok?”

You felt like screaming. You had just come out here to have a nice time, not listen to Kuroo’s narcissistic whining.

“Can you just fuck off? Was I not clear enough or something? You’re dead to me, Kuroo. I’m just trying to have a nice night.”

Kuroo’s mouth gaped open. He had never been spoken to like that, never. He clenched his fists at his sides and his glare intensified.

“You’re lucky I gave you the time of day, fat ugly slut.”

He grabbed Bokuto’s shoulder roughly, turning him to face him completely.

“Hey man, thanks for clearing up my sloppy seconds, really good of you. Good to know I’ve got great friends like you.”

Those were the last things out of Kuroo’s mouth before bokuto landed a punch on his cheek, knocking him to the ground.

“You’re a fucking asshole man,” Bokuto grunted.

He stepped over where Kuroo lay, and held out a hand for you to step over too. You took it quietly and trailed along behind him to the door, fingers still locked. His hands were warm, and big. Kuroo’s face must hurt right now. The thought made you smile. He held the door open for you before sighing, resting his back against the wall. You stood in front of him, twiddling with your fingers.

“I am so sorry about that,” You apologised, embarrassed and shaken by the scene Kuroo had made, “I shouldn’t have wound him up, and I shouldn’t have talked to you after I knew you guys were friends, I promise I didn’t mean to start anything.”

“Don’t be, if anything I’m sorry for not making him leave right away. And either way,” he gently reached for your hand again, and you let him take it,”I’m glad you talked to me. I’d like it if you talked to me even more.”

Them when you're on your period:

Characters: Dazai Osamu, Kuroo Tetsuro, Nakaraha Chuuya, Oikawa Tooru.

Warnings: None.

Dazai Osamu:

Every time you get your period he goes like "Congratulations Belladonna you're not pregnant".

Jokes around more just to make you forget your pain.

This man's love language is physical touch. So if you like to cuddle during periods, Dazai is always ready for it.

Dazai makes hot baths for you when you're on your period and arranges a movie night for both of you to cuddle and watch it.

Says things like "Only if i could bleed like that and die from getting period" and you go like "bitch WTF-"

He gets an excuse to skip ADA meetings and work telling things like "My wifey needs me during this time of her month"

Reads you story books as you rest your body against his chest.

He brings you painkillers and doesn't leave your side even when you have mood swings and tell him to get out.

He knows you don't mean any wrong by the things you said so he just brush it offs and give you hugs.

Kuroo Tetsuro:

Kuroo might be a science nerd but was quite freaked out when you got your first period while living with him.

You just moved in with Kuroo and he wanted to take care of you in your painful days.

He wanted you to feel Comfortable and show you how much he loves you.

You had to assure him for more than 100 times that you'll be alright at home but he kept insisting on staying by your side rather than going to work.

If he goes to work he will text you every second.

"Hi love. How are you feeling? I have left some painkillers in your drawer so please take them if you are in pain.

Chessy nerd pickup line to make you laugh.

"I’d call our bond covalent—it’s pretty strong."

No he didn't search them on google

I feel like Kuroo is a decent chef so he will prepare food your favorite food for you.

Nakahara Chuuya:

THIS MAN ISTG-

I just know he was a bit dense about period. Like he knew what periods are but didn't knew how ti help you with it.

He asked Kouyou to help him with it.

After knowing how much pain you had to go through every month he was determined to be there for you from now on.

Chuuya is a man of money. So he would spoil you rotten during this time of month.

Just tell him what you need and he'd be there for you.

You need Chocolates? He would bring you swish ones.

You need a massage? He would arrange the most expensive massage session.

You need him? He would delay even his important missions.

Despite of having anger issues he would try his best to keep his calm around you during period.

Chuuya still struggles with the mood swings you have but he's trying his best :)<3

You pranked him once by telling him to get a "bloodsucker" period product from the store.

He literally went to the store and asked the shopkeeper to bring him a "bloodsucker" period product and the shopkeeper told him no such product exists.

Later Chuuya was angry with you but it was worth it.

Oikawa Tooru:

Tires to show he's the best boyfriend when it comes to handle your period problems but fails.

This mf is full of himself but goes to seek help from Iwaizumi as soon as he fails to take care of you.

"Iwa-chan! Y/n isn't talking to me.

Unfortunately Iwaizumi wasn't much help to him. So he went to his sister.

His sister told him how he should take care of you on your periods and later he went to your house .

He suggested watching alien movies but you wanted to watch horror movie so he had to give in.

And istg this man is so sacred of horror movies.

Let's just say he was clinging onto you like a lost puppy.

You later teased him for that and he only said "You're so mean Y/n-chan" while internally being happy that he was able to lift up your mood.

｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

A/n: Idk why this was in my drafts for so long. Anyways I hope you liked it ♡.

When you tell him that you used to have a crush on him (Oikawa ver.)

Pairing: Oikawa x reader 

Wordcount: 1300

Genre: angst (not really but kinda)

Author´s note: There will be a pt. 2 at some point and I will release at least two more versions for Atsumu and Kuroo. If you want this type of story for another character I write for, you can request it! 

Other Versions: Atsumu Kuroo

For those who are confused about why I say he is in Brazil in this story: I know he lives in Argentina but at some point in the Manga he is in Brazil and meets Hinata again. Since I haven’t finished the Manga yet, I don’t know how long he stays in Brazil. Could be a few months, could be a week. I don’t know, so just roll with it :)

I hope you like it!

-         The two of you went to the same high school and you used to be in the same class as him

-          You didn’t interact much until you ended up sitting next to each other in class

-          Oikawa didn’t have much of an opinion of you before because you were usually the quiet one in class and didn’t catch his attention. You on the other hand, already had an opinion and it wasn’t too positive: he was too loud, too much of a show-off and too flirty for your taste

-          Only when you sat next to one another and were forced to interact by group projects you both learned to appreciate each other

-          You appreciated him a bit more than he did, though

-          After becoming friends with him and most of his volleyball team you actually realized there was more about him than you thought and fell in love

-          You´ve never had the courage to confess because you didn’t want to ruin your friendship. It was just way too special to you

“What do you mean you had a crush on me?” even through the phone you could tell how his voice went up a notch as he pretty much screeched those words into your ear.

“Exactly what it sounds like. When we were still in high school, I was head over heals for you,” you admitted, your fingers unconsciously playing with the fabric of your blanket that was right underneath you.

You and Oikawa were on your weekly call. Since the boy lived now in Brazil while you were still in Japan you couldn’t meet up anymore. It also didn’t help that both of you were still rather busy.

Oikawa was swarmed with practice and occasional games while you were still in university and just tried to figure out what you wanted to do with your life.

It was a given that those calls often only lasted a few minutes but sometimes when both of you had time to breathe they lasted for hours until one of you fell asleep which was mostly you due to the time difference.

Tonight, was one of those days. It was a Friday night (for you) and Oikawa for once didn’t have practice and was too exhausted to go out while you spent most of your evenings inside your small flat anyway.

Somehow today´s topic concentrated on stories from your high school days as well as a little gossip. That brought this particular situation on you as you just admitted that you had the biggest crush on Oikawa back then.

Normally you would be too embarrassed to admit to having a crush on someone which was one reason why the volleyball pro didn’t have any clue. Another was the fear of ruining this friendship. You obviously had other friends but none of your friends compared to what you had with him.  

It was like those friendships you would envy on TV. Even though your start was rather rocky, at some point it felt like the two of you were soulmates.

Platonic ones, though.

You would text each other daily – be it silly memes or deep 3 AM conversations.

You had stayed after practice with him, occasionally helping him or sometimes you did your homework and other times you just chilled while he did his thing. The only thing the two of you cared about was that you were in the same room, close, even if you didn’t interact with one another. Not to forget that you always made sure that he wouldn’t overdo it which was an exhausting task.

You both had been last-minute study buddies. Due to volleyball he often times had to put studying off, not that it mattered because somehow he still had incredible grades while you were a passionate procrastinator. You couldn’t even count all those times the two of you studied at his place until both of you fell asleep on his floor, only to be woken by his alarm the next morning.

You had done stupid things together. Be it pranking Iwaizumi or the time you two sneaked out to go to a concert in a shady bar your parents and the law didn’t allow you to go to.

So when high school ended and Oikawa and you had different ideas how to go on about the future – you wanted to go to university in Tokyo while he wanted to become a volleyball pro – you were scared to lose each other along the way, which was the exact reason why you called each other every week at least once.

It obviously worked since it had been about one and a half years and you were still great friends. With time passing by, your feelings also diminished or at least that´s what you told yourself whenever your heart acted out of line because of him.

Still, you knew and didnt deny yourself the fact that he would always hold a special place in your heart, so you decided to tell him.

Maybe it would even help you to get completely over him without having to face a direct rejection.

He would probably start laughing any moment now before telling you that he had never seen you that way.

“So, you are telling me you have had a crush on me for all this time?” Your heart somehow skipped a beat due to the way he said those words. It almost seemed like he couldn’t believe you but not in a bad way.

“I used to. Past tense” you decided to emphasize, not wanting him to make this a bigger deal than it actually was.

Unbeknownst to you, Oikawa was freaking out at the other end of the line.

He felt like he missed out big time.

He liked you too.

He wasn’t even sure if he was over you yet. It wasn’t like he had time to date around and try to catch feelings for anyone else, not to forget that your contact pretty much gave him a daily reminded how great his best friend was.

He knew that you said that your feelings were in the past, but he couldn’t help but question if maybe he still had a chance if he was there.

“Why didn’t you tell me? You know I would have never broken your poor, little heart” he tried to play it off by acting dumb. The setter truly hoped you couldn’t detect the nervousness in his voice.

“You mean like you did with all these other girls? Come on, we both know you were and probably still are a heartbreaker,” you teased with a small chuckle at the end.

“Y/N-chan!” He whined childishly, “you know you are special to me, right? I would have never rejected you like I did with them”

His statement threw you off a lot more than it should.

How were you supposed to interpret this? Did he mean that he would have been nicer when rejecting you and that he still would have been your friend? Or did he mean that he wouldn’t have rejected you at all?

Those questions clouded your mind, but you didn’t dare to ask.

After all, if the first one was to be true it wouldn’t matter anyway and if he was to tell you that he would have given you a chance, it would probably break your heart even more.

It would mean that you missed your chance and now he was thousands of kilometers away from you.

“How gracious of you! But it doesn’t matter anyway. It’s the past,” you stopped for a moment not sure, if you should add the next part but somehow those words slipped out.

“-and now we are living on different continents. A relationship would be impossible, right?”

“Right”

Both of you kept quiet after this, thinking about what could have been without knowing that the other was having the same thoughts.

Right
