between you and Ushijima he is the pushover when it comes to his kids. He doesn’t let anyone on court push him around or convince him to do anything that could remotely get him in trouble. But when it comes to his kids “don’t let your mother know that I let you stay up this late” or “if your mother asks, no, we did not get ice cream”.

of course your kids can’t keep a secret for the life of them, so you always find out but you just shake your head and tell them that their father is crazy.

Saeko is the person to go to when you have any kind of drama because she is extremely good at being understanding but also holding people accountable

Tsukishima spent a few hours watching Nekoma and Fukurōdani game tapes so that he could study Kuroo and Bokuto’s playing style so he could ‘play better than them’.

Sentence a day 

Sakusa was the first to get married on the black jackals team, the team found out about his engagement in the locker room when he took off his engagement ring to play. (I believe that the team was invited to the wedding, but all of his previous teammates crashed his wedding in a somewhat similar manner to this)

we all know that Noya styles his hair so he looks taller, but I believe he also puts inserts into his shoes or wears thick soled shoes that make him taller.

what about makki and #17 for the plot bunny game?

Thank you for requesting him. I want to write something for him but since I'm feeling a little meh at the moment, I'll do my best now and give him something else later instead of obsessing to get this right for ages!

We go deeper than the ink beneath the skin of our tattoos

You're five years old when you draw your first heart onto Makki's ankle. He's incredibly ticklish, so it ends up looking more like an egg.

You're seven years old when he leaves bite marks in your leg because he's convinced he's turning into a vampire - it hurts a little bit, but he pays you back with ice cream cake.

You're nine years old when you go through the phase of playing Family and it's always the same: You're the Mom, Makki is your husband and Mattsun's your loyal family dog.

You're eleven years old when Mattsun kisses Momo from the next class over. It's just a silly game of truth or dare and he complains all the way home that she bit him right after, but your poor little heart just won't stop beating, fearing the next time someone brings up this game. What if you have to kiss someone? What if it isn't Makki? What if Makki kisses someone that isn't you?

You're eleven years old when Makki sneaks into your room at night to wake you up, to ask you why you've been looking constipated all day, to sit cross-legged on your pillow, determined to stay until you tell him the truth.

You're eleven years old when you kiss him for the first time. It tastes like toothpaste and blood from chewed-up lips, like childhood and growing up, best friends and something more.

You're twelve when Makki kisses Momo - and tells you later that he doesn't really like her. You're thirteen when you kiss Yaguchi from your art Class - and it's just not the same.

But you're both seventeen when you kiss again, behind the gym, on a sunny day in spring, knowing that this time it will mean something different, something more than the curiosity of children.

"Do you even have to get married?" Mattsun asks over a plate of cake samples. "I thought you did that already when we were kids."

"I doubt the Japanese Government accepts our family dog officiating a wedding," you argue, holding a forkful of lemon meringue pie in front of Makki's lips. He takes the bite, chews slowly and nods.

Mattsun groans. "Could you stop using telepathic communication? I feel left out."

"You can play our family dog again," Makki offers, "Or ask Momo out like I told you to."

kageyama broke a bone when he was a kid and his parents made him drink lots of milk to ‘strengthen his bones’ and the habit stuck.

sentence a day until I can write for myself

Years after Yachi graduated Highschool she sent a really heartfelt letter to Kiyoko about how she inspired her to be confident.

[toomanygoldfish]

Okay, I'll send in three requests that will vary a little so you can get a feel. Now, keep in mind that you can do whatever you want with this, I will never be disappointed, it's just a means to share creativity.

How about this prompt:

"Don′t wanna sleep 'cause we′re dreaming out loud"

but with Goshiki? He's got plenty of big dreams, calling himself the Ace as a first year. I doubt he let go of that after high school

I saw the prompt and immediately thought about a million dreams from the greatest showman.

You make a lot of promises when you are a kid. Most of those promises are forgotten and left in your fondest memories.

standing on the edge of the playground in 4th grade, watching bugs crawl over the wood chips placed in front of them is where this promise was made.

“hey, [Name]? Will you follow me when I become an astronaut?” Goshiki looked at you with a rather intense gaze for a 10 year old.

“Of course! I’ll follow you to wherever the world takes us!” You giggle at him then go back to the bugs.

——— 4 years later ———

that promise held true as you followed him through jr. high.

while Goshiki did not pursue becoming an astronaut, he did find volleyball. You would stay after your club had ended to walk home with him. On many nights you would end up staying on the gym with him as he drilled himself over and over again.

some nights he only left because he could see your eyes drooping, and your yawns becoming more and more frequent.

at first you couldn’t see why a sport this fast paced had enamored him, but after many late nights and you first aid kit being used more often, you finally decided to find out.

you watched hours upon hours of volleyball tapes and started to ask more questions. And to be honest you still didn’t really understand it, but you saw the way his eyes lit up when talking about it.

you saw the way that he smiled when a game component finally clicked, and the laughter that was shared between his teammates after a particularly good skirmish.

you decided that maybe you didn’t need to understand.

——— 2 years later (After losing to karasuno)———

tear tacks were still wet on his cheeks when he went looking for you. You, who was at every single game no matter where, you who was always there with a smile and a hug, and who he loved more than anything.

He found you a standing next to a water fountain, once he got your attention, you gave him a hug. He held you to his chest and shook with silent sobs.

After a while he pulled back and looked you in the eyes, and decided then and there that he didn’t want to spend another day without you.

——

it took him until the end of his first year to finally ask you out. (To which you said yes)

The whole summer was spent going on dates and having fun with each other. The usual disappointment of going back to school wasn’t there, only excitement for the new volleyball season.

At the end of the volleyball season, he gave you a promise ring. He promised that wherever you took him, that he would go, as long as he got to stay with you. You kept the ring on a necklace throughout the rest of your Highschool years.

——— 3 years later ———

in your second year of college you got offered your dream scholarship. However you were reluctant to take it, because it meant moving to another country.

you brought it up to Goshiki and it was one of the first big fights you had.

he wanted you to take it. He felt like you had encouraged him to follow his dreams as a professional volleyball player and he wanted you to follow your dreams too.

you argued that you wanted to stay with him. That your relationship with him was more important to you than any scholarship. you eventually walked out to the balcony to get some space, and after cooling down a bit, you went back inside to find him. you sat down and tried to explain it from your point of view. He was one of the most important people in your life, and that moving away might break that connection. He explained that you had done so much for him, and that he didn’t want to hold you back from achieving something great. it was a long night. And in the end you agreed that you would take the scholarship.

the night before you left for the airport you gave him a promise ring, and took yours off of the necklace and put it onto your finger. ——— 2 years later ———

Visiting each other was hard. With Goshiki progressing into his volleyball career, and you spending most of your time doing work. but you made it work. one memorable night was when Goshiki had stayed awake long after midnight to stay on the phone with you. He was quite honestly delirious and it was mostly his subconscious talking to you.

you found it hilarious. He was filling the silence with mostly meaningless babble. It was a great background noise for your studying. eventually you got bored of studying and you turned your attention to your boyfriend asking him questions and watching him put too much effort into answering it.

eventually you remember how late it is over there. “Hey lover boy, why are you still awake?”

he blinks his eyes lazily at you before slowly responding, “I don’t ‘wanna sleep when I could be dreaming out loud with you.”

you feel your heart melt at this man, who even when tired is thinking of you and wants to spend time with you. “I love you baby, but you need sleep. Good night my love”

“‘Ood night”

———

the night of your return was marked on the calendar you and Goshiki shared. However near your return date your supervisor noticed how antsy you were getting and managed to get you a return flight a week earlier. you decided not to tell Goshiki about the new flight date so you could surprise him. The first thing to do was call his teams manager to make sure that he could get a free day. and after a long call, and being put on hold for far too long, Goshiki would be free for the next day.

——— the next day ———

Goshiki has been doing a lot of things in the weeks leading up to your departure, one of which was to buy an actual engagement ring. He had bought this ring* right before practice. His plan was to propose to you right after you got out of the airport. Strangely enough when he went into practice his manager kept giving him knowing looks. He ignored it and kept practicing until the coaches called them over and cut practice short. Goshiki (who was rather confused) took the drive home. It was a fairly normal drive home with not much traffic. Until he got a text from you. ❤️My beloved❤️: will you pick up some flowers for me?

❤️My beloved❤️: I ordered them already all you need to do is pick them up. Thank you 😊

Me: sure, send me the address

❤️My beloved❤️: thank you 😘

——— a few minutes later ———

Goshiki walked into the store, only to pause when he saw you. “…[Name]?” He looks at you, then rubs his eyes to make sure you are real. “Goshiki!” You run to him and hug him. “How, How are you here?”

“they let me go a few days early, and I came to surprise you!”

Goshiki fumbled around his pockets for something. He seems to find it quickly but looks up nervously. “you good there Goshiki?”

“yes! Yes I am, um this isn’t how I wanted this to go,” he looks at you and smiles. “But you mean the world to me and I’m so happy that you came home early.”

he gets down onto one knee and pulls out the ring. “[Full Name] you are the love of my life. Will you make me the happiest man alive and marry me?”

“YES”

*this is the ring I was thinking of

[toomanygoldfish]

sentence a day until I can write

Ushijima didn’t tell anyone that he was getting married, so imagine his PR teams surprise when at a meet and greet someone asks him on a date and he holds up his hand with a ring and says “I’m married”.

[toomanygoldfish]

I got evil booped :0

>:)

[toomanygoldfish]

sentence until I can write again

Atsumu dated a hairdresser once out of Highschool, during one bad fight the hairdresser went on a tirade about his hair, and that’s why it looks better than in Highschool.

people I'd like to get to know better

Aaaaaahh! Thank you so much @dira333!

Last song: we made it. by David Hugo

This song has been on repeat for a while. I am getting out of an insanely hectic two-three-ish months, and this song is like my anthem right now. 

Favorite color: yellow

I love how bright and promising the color is. It’s a color that refuses to be ignored and I love it. 

Last Movie: UP!

I LOVE up, and believe it or not, I didn’t choose the movie. A kid I babysit is obsessed with UP, and I love him for it. 

Sweet/Spicy/Savoury: sweet/spicy

My body is a baby when it comes to spice, so I can’t eat a lot of spicy things, but I love them. I love sweets. I have a package of candy in my bag, so I can have a pick me up when I need it. 

Relationship Status: dating!

I have a wonderful S.O. They are amazing and our relationship has been a great one to have. 

Last thing I googled: approximately

Me and my friend were having a disagreement about what approximately meant. I said that it was exactly something, they said it was almost exactly. I was wrong. 

Current Obsession: Character Design

I’ve been having a lot of fun picking apart the design choices of characters in video games, so I decided to incorporate a lot of the small details into my own characters. 

@strwbrryeyes

[toomanygoldfish]

lmao, I have this panic any time I write for a character and post it that I have written their name wrong. I was looking over my recent Oikawa Drabble and my brain just kept telling me that “you wrote his name wrong”
