only writing about haikyuu for now, mainly x reader and self inserts!

Haikyuu has been my comfort show for many many years and I have finally gathered the courage to post my work!

I mostly write angst and hurt/comfort, there might also be some ocassional fluff and maybe smut down the line. I am mainly writing as a form of expressing myself so my writing is heavily based and influenced by my own life experiences and trauma. This is also why I mainly write for characters I kin or deeply resonate with.

My ask box is always open! Just please keep in mind that it might take me a little to get around to them depending on my mental health, mood and inspiration.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog! Let's cry together over emotionally distant fictional boys♡ I am always thankful for feedback or constructive criticism on my work as well^^
