I’m half dead because I’ve been literally drawing these for the whole day but oH WELL it was worth it;)
Drawing third-year first-years is always fun. Noya and Tanaka are just checking on their not-so-longer kouhais and discover some..things.
I freaking love this!!
four of everything
happy birthday, yachi!!! ilysm!! [ao3 link]
On a pleasant Sunday morning, Yachi Hitoka woke up to four text messages, four cupcakes, four presents, and four faces at her door.
This is so cute!
When the final bell goes, Yachi, who’s already neatly packed away her pencil case, pushes her chair back, gives the most cursory, absentminded bow she’s ever given in her schooling career, picks up her bag and hightails it out of class like a mini-hurricane.
Her hands are still shaking a little, her knuckles white from where she was gripping the edge of her desk. Her heart sings a pitter-patter rhythm all the way down the corridor.
today – today – today’s the day –
Sunlit sakura, pale pink, delicate like possibilities, greet her as she emerges into the open. She’s wearing her lucky stars in her hair, just for today.
It doesn’t stop her from nearly tripping over her own feet, as she barrels across the courtyard, squeaks out a small apology to a bush she’d collided into and stumbles into the gym.
“Yachi-san?”
The voice that greets her is slightly surprised.
Yachi, startled to hear a voice at all, comes to a flustered halt by the doorstep and looks up.
“Kageyama-kun! Good afternoon,” she calls out, smiling.
Kageyama nods at her from the court, volleyball already in his hands.
“You’re early,” he observes.
Yachi laughs a little sheepishly as she walks over to the benches. “I ran here right after class. I was so nervous… you’re early too, Kageyama-kun?”
“Yeah.”
He tosses the ball in the air. Yachi, expecting a serve, braces herself for the firm sound of impact, but Kageyama lets the ball drop instead, catches it in his hands again with a preoccupied frown, spinning it in between his palms.
Yachi sits down and rummages through her bag for her tracksuit.
“Why are you nervous, Yachi-san?” Kageyama asks.
“Ah, um, that is! You know, today, the new members are coming, and, I…”
Yachi lets her voice trail off as she rests her bag in her lap, feels her pulse quicken again, clenches her fist, small and tight by her side. She tucks her ankles under the bench, one way, then another, and presses her toes into the floor, restless.
Her gaze wanders upwards to meet Kageyama’s, steady, intense.
“Me too,” he admits, with a brusque nod.
Yachi stares. “Huh?”
“I’m nervous about the new members too. I don’t know if I can be a good senpai. Because the last time, at Kitagawa Daiichi, I was. Kind of shitty.”
He says it with a blunt kind of frankness, self-conscious, but honest nonetheless, and Yachi’s the one blushing now even as she fumbles for something she can say, inadequate as it surely is.
“That’s – don’t think about that, Kageyama-kun, that was last time, you’re different now.”
Kageyama takes a short breath, lets it out quickly with a quiet huff.
Unexpectedly, Yachi sees the corners of his lips twitch, into something like a smile – a genuine smile –
“Thanks,” he says. “So are you. So. Don’t worry.”
He turns back to face the other side of the court, tosses the ball high and smashes down a decisive serve. It’s perfect, knocking down the bottle on the other side. Spot on.
Yachi, her cheeks still flushed, thinks:
we’re stronger now. we can do it.
She lets the simplicity of his reassurance wash over her, and her heart brightens, like her stars.
Love!!!!
characters: yachi, hinata, karasuno
pairings: hinata/yachi
summary: hinata loves kisses and it’s not good for yachi’s heartThe first one is thoughtless.
It’s one of gratitude, but Yachi’s fairly sure he’s still running on adrenaline from the game, elated to be rotated back onto the court and get to play again, so he doesn’t quite think about what he’s doing when he beams at her, handing her the water bottle she had offered to take, and pecks her cheek for barely a nanosecond.
Haikyuu
Oh boy my precious volleyball baes! I still
cannot believe the level of obsession I fell into with this show. Fun fact, I
only started watching it because I heard some of the music on an anime play
list. It was so amazing that I had to find out what it was from. Then when I
did I laughed because – really, an anime
about high school volleyball!! – And thus began my love for it and other
sports anime. Hehe. PS all of these will be SUPER hard to answer because I have
too many favorites and I’ve watched through the anime probably four times but I
will try to be accurate lol.
FMA
I’ve watched both Fullmetal Alchemist and Fullmetal
Alchemist: Brotherhood and enjoy both but Brotherhood is my prefer series. Also
another series with TOO MANY CHARACTERS TO LOVE!!!
The first
character I first fell in love with: Alphonse,
his earnest trust and belief in his brother, his desire to help and protect
others, his deep love for his friends and family.
The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: GREED!!!! Oh my gosh, especially when he takes
over Ling’s body (spoil alert?) and they have the whole dynamic in his head. I
just…his character is so much more
than you think when he firsts shows up and I freaking love it! Also, oddly
enough, Barry the Chopper?
The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Honestly? Can’t think of any. I’m not active in
the fandom per se so I don’t know who this could possibly be. Unless there are
those who “love” Father? Then it’d be him because that bastard…ugh…that bastard…
The character I love that everyone else hates: Again, no points of reference….are there people
who hate Edward or Alphonse? lol
The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Bradley before I knew what he was. I thought
he was pretty cool and a good leader…heh… had me fooled too.
The character I would totally smooch: Havoc!!!! I just love that idiot! LOL
The character I’d want to be like: Winery!! Beautiful, smart, brave and a mechanic!
The character I’d slap: Any of the Homunculi except Greed LOL
A pairing that I love: Winery x Edward, Mustang x Riza
A pairing that I despise: Don’t have one I think
Thanks for asking!!!
#1 – soulmates au
Hitoka’s star is orange and sometimes, at the right angle, it looks like it has wings.
Some people have stars that burn cold but Hitoka’s burns so hot she avoids taking it out in the summer. Sometimes in the winter she takes it out just to feel it’s warmth seep through her bones but in the summer it stays tucked away wherever soul stars go when they aren’t out so that she doesn’t overheat and die. This is why she doesn’t make the connection between Hinata and her star for a long time after meeting him.
She meets Hinata at the beginning of the summer when the heat is just starting to get choking. She had already sat up all night with her star for the last time before fall a few weeks ago, admiring the way it thrummed with energy and seemed to want to fly away from her hands. When she meets Hinata her soul star isn’t even on her mind and she doesn’t realize why the warmth of his hand in hers as she pulls him through the street feels so familiar.
It isn’t until the fall when she’s practically aching with how much she misses her stars energy that Hinata holds her hand again. It’s just a light touch, a pull to move her out of the way, but she stares at her hand for a long time after he moves on. He’s distracted by volleyball and his own determination.
When she’s safe at home that night she pulls her star out of herself and watches it rotate in her hand, glowing orange and bursting to fly. It’s warm where it float in her hand and she feels complete. It feels exactly the same as when Hinata smiles at her.
For a while Hitoka isn’t sure what to do. Hinata is so focused on volleyball he probably doesn’t want a soulmate at all. It isn’t until after the spring tournament that she works up the bravery to bring it up.
“Hinata-kun?”
Hinata makes an interested noise to show that he’s listening but other than that he’s still focused on the worksheet in front of him. Kageyama is sleeping on his worksheet across the table. If it wasn’t for the fact that Hitoka has been looking for an opportunity to talk to Hinata she would have woken him up and insisted that he get back to studying already. The end of year exams were fast approaching after all.
“Do you every wonder about your soulmate?” she asks him.
“Oh, you mean this?”
Just like that Hinata is pulling his star out right in front of her and she aches. It’s golden and small and it has an understated shimmer instead of a shine but it’s undeniably beautiful. If Hitoka is right then she feels a little conceited for thinking that.
Hitoka’s star has never demanded to come out before but now she can feel it just under her skin, burning hot and insistent. She lets it out and it curls into her palm, orange and flying. For a second their stars are just there, both glowing in Hitoka’s living room, but then they’re reaching for each other and shining so brightly that they’re blinding. Hitoka feels breathless as she watches Hinata’s gold star, the one that represents her, gravitate towards her orange star. They’re spinning around each other, twin streaks of gold and orange lighting up Hitoka’s vision, and then it’s over.
Hitoka and Hinata are both breathing hard, each holding on to an identical small pair of stars that spin together in a lazy slow dance, one gold and the other orange.
“You’re my soulmate?” Hinata wonders aloud, that lovely smile on his face. Hitoka’s heartbeat picks up and the spinning stars in Hinata’s hand speed up with it.
She blushes and she notices that the stars in her hand are speeding up their spin. Hinata is staring at her blush with a look of wonder on his face.
“That’s so gwaaah.” Hinata says with excitement, leaning towards her.
“Yeah,” Hitoka agrees, “it is.”
I’m filling prompts from this list today~!
anon: i read ur bokuoi headcanons and im so dead bc it’s so cute!! but have u considered: bokuto x yachi?? I literally shipped the both of them with everyone else but then I shipped them together and??? I’M EVEN MORE DEAD?? Any hcs???
yachi being terrified of bokuto at first because he’s so much bigger and louder than her. then she watches some of his matches during the training camp and he seems less terrifying so their other interactions are a bit better. and she admires him because wow, his spikes are no jokes.
bokuto who thinks she’s really cute and doesn’t know how to approach her?? akaashi and kuroo give him stupid suggestions or just Looks so he asks hinata and he just. brings him to talk to yachi and makes most of the conversation because they’re both nervous messes.
bokuto who helps yachi navigate tokyo when she comes and just brings her to his favorite places and the inital awkwardness fades away very quickly and they have a very good time?? she laughs at his jokes and he’s always super enthusiast about anything she has to say
and all that energy that intimidated yachi at first pulls her in and she feels herself braver and more daring with him? and bokuto who wants to do, like, everything with her but knows when she wants to stop and rest a bit
bokuto who cries when yachi has to leave and then yachi cries too, of course. it’s very foreshadowing of how movie nights will go.
bokuto being afraid of crushing yachi in his sleep at first because she’s all over him like he’s her pillow but he moves a lot when he sleeps. yachi has to show him she can make him roll over even if he’s a dead weight over him. the demonstration ends up with both of them on the ground buried under their covers and tangled in each other
can you imagine their first kiss that would be such an adorable mess oh my god
and I bet bokuto would just,, love to give little kisses to yachi, all the time, all the time
So it was a mixture of Haikyuu was real or I was in the anime but I was somewhere with all of Karasuno and it was after Nationals (DO NOT TELL ME WHATS GOING ON IM WAITING FOR SEASON FOUR).
We were having a farewell party for the third years (sob) and the boys (all of them) had wanted to commemorate this year’s team so Kiyoko and I (I guess I was a third manager) had framed their jerseys and Yachi had done portraits of them all.
We hung them up and said the boys could write whatever they wanted on their jerseys.
Asahi and Tanaka simultaneously wrote and said, “Remember.”
Daichi had just turned around and I ran to him, jumping in his arms and hugging him. But I knew we weren’t together so were just close but I also kissed him so…
But he hugged me so tight and I said, “Thank you.”
He looked surprised/confused. “For what?”
I looked in his eyes, smiled and said, “For everything, for this team, for letting me be a part of it.”
He smiled and hugged me again saying, “We should be thanking you.”
We stayed like that for a while and then I looked over at the guys all talking and laughing (some crying a little) and kind of mumbled, “I never knew it was possible to love this many people.”
Daichi looked at me with a surprised smile. “Really?”
I nodded and he chuckled.
“Is that weird?” I asked.
“It’s a little weird,” he admitted.
“But it’s the kind of weird you’d expect from me, ya?”
He smiled so warm you guys and nodded. “Yeah, it is.”
And then I was off talking to someone else about why they should join the art club….WHAT?!!!
Yeah, random dream but y’all I could feel those beefy arms around me holding me so close and he was so warm!
10. staring at the other’s lips, trying not
to kiss them, before giving in — IwaKiyoEvery day, Kiyoko sees him on the bus, and she’s pretty sure he doesn’t
even know she exists. Though they had gone to different high schools, their
homes seem to be relatively close together because of their respective stops,
and Kiyoko’s brand new job lands her just a block away from Iwaizumi Hajime’s
college campus.She doubts he ever noticed her during the repeated battles between Karasuno
and Aobajousai, but it had been hard not
to notice him. He carried himself with confidence she had envied, commanded
respect from everyone on either side of the net, and had a ruggedly beautiful
physique that he seemed not to notice.So she had nursed a little crush a while back. That was then, this is
now.
