Haikyuu Time Skip - Blog Posts

Promise - Tsukishima

this is my first post on here, and it’s a comfort self-indulge thing cause i was sad this week

character: time skip! tsukishima kei

word count: 845

warnings: might be ooc for comfort reasons (also the fact that i haven’t wrote anything in years so probably poorly written)

it just felt like too much, trying to balance school, work, and a barely existing social life. and maybe this was the last straw to it, as i shake looking down at my phone.

honestly, don’t bother messaging me again

had i done something wrong? i thought our relationship was fine, decent even. even with the lack of communication between us, i thought we were still in a good place. i had assumed she still saw me as a friend; however it seems that only I felt that way.

a tear trickles down my cheek, then another and another. it’s almost like my eyes had become a broken dam, the way I’m unable to stop crying over this. over her, someone i had considered a close friend. and yet, she didn’t care anymore.

should have told you sooner, but i don’t really care.. you’re kinda tiring...

when did this all start? how did we even get here? was i in the wrong? perhaps i should have hung out with her rather than stayed home. maybe i should have cared less about school, loosen-up for her. would that have changed anything?

“hey. are you crying?” i look up from the bench i sit on to see tsukishima, his head slightly tilted and his eyebrow raised. quickly i turn away as if i’m guilty by being caught crying. i hastily rubbed at my eyes, though my tears seem to have a mind of their own as they continue to fall.

“ah no. I’m fin—“

“i can see that you’re not.”

a sigh escapes my lips and i look back at him, attempting a smile but it’s too strain to feel normal on my lips. he frowns at it before sighing at me.

“you don’t really have to tell me what happened,” he says, placing his school bag down beside me as he sits down as well, “just don’t lie.”

and he doesn’t ask, rather he sits besides me and attempts to make small talk. no matter how awkward it feels in the situation, it’s comforting. with dried up tears and a slightly better demeanor, i look down at my shoes and take a breath.

“it’s my friend. though i suppose we aren’t exactly friends anymore.” i sneak a small glance towards tsukishima, knowing that i have his attention and he doesn’t plan to make any remarks till i’m done.

“she got upset that i wasn’t spending more time with her, saying that i wasn’t trying hard enough to be her friend. but it was always her not trying, i did nothing but reach out to her and she’d give me little to nothing no matter what.”

i lean back, my head touching the wall behind me and i laugh at the thought. at the irony of being accused of doing nothing when i did everything.

“ah i’m rambling aren’t i? i must thank you for sitting here, although i’m sure you’d rather be somewhere else rather than dealing with my emotions.” a small, sad smile comes across my face as he huffs in response.

“you make it sound like i’m heartless or something. i can be nice you know?” he lightly shoves his elbow in my side and i return the favor with a small laugh.

“it’s not your fault, you need to know that,” he says looking at me directly, “you did your best, and yeah it does suck that you lost a friend. but you have other people who care for you.”

i’m shocked by the gentleness his voice holds. this 6 feet tall middle blocker who has done nothing but tease me about my height or my grades, was now attempting to comfort me.

“you talk down about yourself, but i don’t think you’re giving yourself enough credit,” he says, tilting his head back a bit looking up as if trying to find the right words, “you’re honestly a great person who got screwed over. i don’t even know how you were able to keep this all bottled up for so long. but it’s good to let it out before it becomes too suffocating.”

i smiled at him, poking at him in a teasing manner, “aw aren’t you being sweet. so you do care about me.”

“nevermind, forget i said anything.”

he swats my hand away halfheartedly, a smile tugging on his face too as he looks at me.

“so what now? do i just keep moving forward now?”

“yeah, she isn’t worth mulling over or crying about. besides you have a whole team of volleyball guys who are here for you.”

i laugh at the thought of the sendai frogs team, a bunch of energy filled boys who always leave a smile on my face. “and what about you? do I have you on my side?”

he looks at me with a light smirk on his face. taking his hand, he ruffles my hair against my protest. finally resting it on my head, he laughs at my pouting face, “course you do tiny. you’re stuck with me at this point.”

“promise?”

“yeah, promise.”

You think Hinata ever just bites Kageyama?…. Just like…. Really goes to town in a silly goofy nonsexual way… down to the bone type gnawing

Some Haikyuu (kagehina) headcannons that me and @jetjaw came up with together

- Hinata has REALLY bad object permanence. Like terrible. When him and Kageyama are living together, Kageyama takes advantage of it to get introvert cool down time. He’s always waiting for Hinata to turn around then bolting and Hinata will just forget who he was talking to.

- (this was according to a very questionable series of taro readings but it’s hilarious anyway) In a moment of weakness (obvs pre relationship) Kageyama hooked up with Atsumu. He regrets it because that is embarrassing as hell. Atsumu is also very awkward about it because wtf that’s his professional competition. When Hinata joins the Jackals and gets close to Atsumu (now him and Kageyama /are/ dating) he does not know about this. Chaos ensues as he tries to get his bestie/coworker and boyfriend/arch nemesis to get along but for some reason they’re really uncomfortable hanging out together outside of volleyball????

- Hinata fucking loves citric acid and potassium. The potassium thing is because he is always dehydrated. He doesn’t understand why juice with a lot of potassium tastes so good. It’s like crack for him. He gets withdrawals. He’s fuckin rabid if he doesn’t get his drink. One time the team gave him a Gatorade (electrolytes) and he was like “OH MY GOD ITS LIKE MY JUICE????”

- Kageyama is lactose intolerant. He does not like this.

- Miwa is naturally very introverted and sarcastic but took on the mantle of being the extroverted Kageyama TM. Her and Hinata get along so well it tortures Tobio.

- Hinata memorizes Kageyama’s particularities and saves them up for later. During a very intense argument Kageyama shouts that he “isn’t that particular!” Hinata proceeds to do everything how he does the next day and it drives him crazy. Socks? Matching. Coat? Fully zipped. Kageyama? Scared.

- In a similar vein, Hinata uses it to be spiteful in other ways when they’re fighting. Once Kageyama went to cook breakfast. Upon seeing all of the food in the fridge with their labels facing perfectly backwards, he proceeded to crash out so bad that Hinata never messed with his organization systems again.

- Kageyama comes out publicly after a public scandal over Ushijima and Tendo’s relationship. He isn’t even trying to come out he’s just very blunt about it and his PR can’t control him. An interviewer will be like “how do you feel about your teammate being gay?” And he’s like “that’s homophobic” 😐

- Hinata never comes out publicly. He doesn’t have to. Videos surface of him getting interviewed by influencers in Brazil (fresh out of a gay bar) and it’s made pretty clear. “So what are you doing this evening?” “Uhhh idk, but I just made out with a very nice guy!” :D

- they don’t have wedding bands, it’s too inconvenient for their sport and they’d just lose them.

- Kageyama only got away with the Atsumu hookup because it came out the same night he found out about Hinata hooking up with Oikawa

- Kageyama will bring Hinata to events when he’s still more famous and be mistaken as Hinata’s plus one. That short ass ginger has a GRIP on his waist and his voice PROJECTING.
