Noticed ; Nayuta Asahi x Reader

Nayuta is aloof so he's not the affectionate type, but he has the man still has feelings and his own way of expressing them. His feelings are subtle, though— you'd have to catch it at the speed of light.

With his sharp words and actions, his eyes are equally sharp. He notices everything— the small things.

Recently, he's taken a small interested towards GYROAXIA's current roadie.

He picks up on your habits, like how you take your coffee, the sound of your footsteps when you're about to come, the keychain that dangles off your purse, or the fact you arrive at the practice room earlier than the other gyroaxia members even though you do it to help them prepare.

Sometimes, he even arrives earlier than everyone, including you, just so he can have a moment alone with you. He doesn't say anything, though— he simply tolerates your presence in silence while he looks over the next song he's going to be performing and you're preparing the soundsystem.

During breaks in band practice, you and the other members make small talk— what to eat today, what you're craving, what's been on your mind. Nayuta stays off to the side, minding to himself, but his ears subtly perked up as he listens to your voice, taking a slow sip from his water bottle.

You'd mentioned your interest in a new limited edition drink sold at the grocery store, but you haven't been able to get your hands on it. So when kenta, or one of the members goes out to shop, nayuta might casually slip in a small request to the shopping list— or even join them and quietly leave the drink into the cart himself.

He notices how you keep a distance between everyone's personal life, including his. With gyroaxia, you are on good terms with everyone but professionally, you're their roadie so you mostly only engage in small talk, dropping little, seemingly insignificant details about your life outside work, but he still takes note of them. Like when you casually mentioned your grade on a recent test to kenta, or how you and reon like the same artist, the hair product you recommended to miyuki.

But he finds it annoying when you mention those minor details to them, it's not important, it gets in his way.

He won't admit that he's annoyed, jealous, you won't share some things with him. Maybe it's because everytime you try to engage in a conversation with him, he either ignores you or immediately dismisses you.

He doesn't say it, but he recognizes your effort in taking care of the band.

You always take note of every comment from the members, whether minor or important. When kenta mentioned that the current performance and practice schedule was clashing with some gigs, even some personal appointment of the members, he struggled to find the time to fix it. Then nayuta complained how the sound system didn't sound right, which quite bothered him throughout practice.

And so, the next day you immediately handled the practice schedule, ensuring everyone was reminded on time. Everything went smoothly by the end of the week.

You had even came more earlier to practice so you could adjust the volume, bass, trebble on the tone control, and fixed his in-ear monitor. He noticed the difference immediately— even without you having to say anything.

He knew you had taken care of it before anyone even asked.

"It's different." He grumbles.

"Is it not up to your liking, Nayuta?" you ask.

He responds with nothing but a click of his tongue. It’s not much, but from the tone and the way his expression isn’t too stern, you can tell it means good enough. So, you don’t press further and simply smile to yourself, proud.

itaru + love confession headcanons.

another repost, this time for a3! i really enjoyed typing this up, so i couldn’t let it collect dust on my old blog :^) basically, these are headcanons for how itaru would confess his feelings. fairly straightforward!

it’s your relentless drive that first captures his attention. as director, you have a lot riding on your shoulders, yet you carry that weight with little complaint. it’s clear you care deeply about the mankai company and your actors; it just takes itaru a while to realize that includes him

he’s never cared for anything like he does for gaming, but he finds his connection to the stage as well as to the spring troupe changing that. it has a lot to do with the passion that the others display for acting, but also thanks to you. your love for the theatre, coupled by your belief in him, endear you to him more than you realize

it takes time for him to recognize what his feelings for you are, though; he writes them off as admiration and gratitude, but that doesn’t explain the irritation he feels when other guys show a not-so-professional interest in you

figuring out he’s jealous is just the first step. he doesn’t plan to do anything about it, but you’re gaining new suitors by the week, and he realizes that he doesn’t want to watch you eventually fall for someone else

he’s lazy, would rather game than socialize, lets opportunities pass him by…but like with acting, itaru wants to pursue this. he wants to find out if he actually has a shot with you

of course, that doesn’t magically result in him sweeping you off your feet. sure, he can manufacture charm, but the problem is that you know who he really is, so it doesn’t work. you think he’s joking or—worse—practicing when he tries to flirt with you

itaru starts taking inspiration from anime, manga, video games, whatever. he’s desperate, okay! and willing to try anything once to see if it works!

not only does he fail spectacularly, but his attempts catch the attention of others in the company. masumi and sakyo are especially disgruntled, and only one of them hides it well; those like sakuya and muku, however, want to help him out

sakuya chats your ear off about itaru’s many good qualities; muku reads shoujo manga cover to cover in order to gain ideas for romantic encounters; homare tries to get him to create and recite terrible poetry; kazunari gives dating advice and tips that he insists will work; misumi tells you that itaru resembles a triangle, which…is supposed to be a compliment? he thinks?

none of their attempts work, either because you’re too oblivious or the ideas are too terrible, yet itaru finds himself thankful all the same. before he joined the mankai company, he didn’t have any close friends, but that’s changed radically. though he still has troubling relating to people, none of them think less of him for it

if it hadn’t been for you asking him to join, and insisting he stick around, his life would’ve remained bland and solitary; instead of all of this making you fall for him, his feelings for you only deepen, until he has to do something about it

in the end, itaru tricks you into going on a date with him. he takes you out to dinner after practice as thanks for your help, then walks with you in a nearby park, before stopping near the theatre and confessing

of course, you immediately think it’s part of a street act; worse, you join in on the “scene,” though your acting hasn’t improved at all in the months that have passed

but your earnest attempt is endearing, just like everything about you is, even your absurd obsession with curry. so itaru steps forward, until your chests are brushing, and tells you he’s going to kiss you. and then he does

when he breaks the kiss, his hands are caressing your cheeks, and your arms are encircling his shoulders. he grins at your shocked, flushed features, saying, “you better not think this is some street act. i don’t kiss just anyone like that.”

and that’s how itaru convinces you to go out with him; it took longer than expected, but he’s starting to learn that the things that matter are worth the extra effort
