How would Kiridai + Haizaki react to their gf not wanting to have kids? She won't change her mind either.
Haizaki Shougo -  “thank fuck”. Haizaki doesn’t want kids; Haizaki’s mother doesn’t want him to have kids; no one who knows Haizaki would ever want him to have kids. So it’s not a problem that you don’t want kids either. (However, I will note that Haizaki’s the type of person to think that any opinion he disagrees with can and ought to be changed. If he did, one day, decide to have kids, then it would ruin the relationship completely.)
Hanamiya Makoto, Seto Kentarou - neither of them see themselves as family men, so they’re not particularly phased when you mention this. However, both are children to people who would like them to have kids. Seto’s parents, in particular, will bring up children with you, when you and Seto get serious. As much as Seto will support your decision when that time comes, they’re pretty traditional, with their opinions not easily changed. Hanamiya’s mother just wants to be a grandmother. She’s not going to make it an issue with you, if you don’t want kids, but expect lots of accidental comments on how cute you and Hanamiya’s children would be. 
Hara Kazuya, Yamazaki Hiroshi - it’s a tricky issue for these two. For most of their young adult years, they’ve both thought that they don’t want children anytime soon. In Hara’s case, it’s because he doesn’t want the commitment, whereas, for Yamazaki, it’s a question of not feeling like he’d be able to be a good parent. But, having grown up with two siblings each, both see a couple children minimum in their future. So, as much as they’re not going to break up with you straight away, kids will become a very awkward topic. 
Furuhashi Koujirou - he’s not 100% sure about whether he wants children yet. He does, however, respect that you’ve made your mind up about it - he’s not going to try change it, even as his mind changes as he grows older. So his reaction is a pretty solid “we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it”.

Hii! Can you make a Murasakibara x reader . Murasakibara calls his s/o by a cute nickname after his basketball practice is over and his s/o came to see if his practice is over so they both can go home together after school + the reaction of GOM when they get to know murasakibara is dating someone.? Bye, have a great day /night!
Hi anon ! Thank you so much, and this is really cute, thanks for the mental picture <33
Reading you guys' KnB imagines always makes my day, so please continue to send em in !
When his friends find out you're dating
Murasakibara x gn reader
(AU in which the GOM remain teammates after middle school)
@neoo you might like this one
You took your phone out of your bag to check the time as you walked towards the school gym. If you remembered correctly, Atsushi's basketball practice should have ended around five minutes ago. It was the last practice session of a very busy season, so he'd promised to take you out as soon as it was finished. When you asked where, he said it was a surprise and that he'd take you there after practice. The more you thought about spending the evening with your beloved boyfriend after a few weeks of barely seeing him outside of school, the giddier you felt. When you finally reached the gym and pushed the door open, you saw Atsushi talking with the other members of the generation of miracles as they walked out of the changing room. Even though most members of the generation of miracles were pretty tall, Murasakibara still managed to tower over them. He'd changed out of his basketball kit and into a loose fitting black shirt with short sleeves and grey sweatpants. His hair was also up- he knew that was a weakness of yours. You didn't mind that he dressed more casually- in fact, as you checked out his long, toned arms, you realised how much you liked it. As soon as Murasakibara saw you standing and starin at the door, he smiled slightly and walked over to you.
"Hey baby, you ready to leave after this ?" You opened your mouth to answer but Kuroko beat you to it.
"What ? Murasakibara and Y/N ? Why didn't anybody tell me ?" You tried not to laugh at the look of utter shock on his face as his eyes darted between you and Atsushi. Aomine cut in, frowning
"Yeah ! And why does he get to date someone that hot ? Y/N, if you ever grow bored of this dry ass man then you know where to find-" This time, it was Atsushi who cut Aomine off by shoving him in the opposite direction to you.
"Over my dead body," he said, glaring at Aomine. The latter simply smirked and raised his eyebrows
"Control yourself, Aomine. Anyway, you're all just idiots. This has been rather obvious for a few weeks now. Whenever Murasakibara has free time, he spends it with Y/N, and he always takes every opportunity to text them during practice. Akashi has noticed it too. While I normally wouldn't condone dating within a friendship group, their signs are perfectly matched," Midorima explained, a triumphant look on his face, while Akashi stood there silently. You hadn't expected much of a reaction from him, because you realised on some level he'd always known, and had given you and Atsushi small windows of time in which you could meet and talk all throughout the last basketball season. When you'd thanked him for all his help, he'd just nodded and smiled slightly.
You listened and tried to hold in your laughter as Aomine and Midorima began to squabble over his remark. These guys were idiots, but they were your idiots. They'd been your best friends since middle school and you were glad that you finally had the opportunity to share this with them. Kise finally broke the spat, smiling in your direction as he spoke.
"Yeah, you guys really weren't as discreet as you thought. I mean, Murasakibaracchi literally has a picture of you in his basketball jersey as his phone lockscreen. Anyway, though I agree with Aominecchi that this is slightly unfair, I wish you two all the best. You look really cute together, as well as being well matched,"
"Yeah," Kuroko agreed, smiling at you as you blushed.
"Aww guys... thank you so much ! We would have told you earlier, but we were afraid it would change things between the group,"
"Nah. No matter what happens, we'll stick together. We've made it this far, right ?" Aomine replied, and the others nodded in agreement. Atsushi put an arm around your waist and looked at the guys.
"Now that you know, I'd appreciate it if you stopped wasting our time. I'm taking Y/N on a date tonight. Also, keep your hands to yourselves. Y/N is mine," he said, glaring at Aomine and Kise. You smiled up at him, your heart beating faster as he revealed this new possessive side to his nature. He squeezed you a little before hoisting you over his shoulder as if you weighed nothing.
"Wha- Atsushi ! What do you think you're doing ?" you asked, squirming in his grasp playfully.
"We'll get there faster like this,". He tightened his grip around you and you let yourself relax, breathing in his warm scent as he carried you out of the gym.
"Bye guys !" you said, smiling as Atsushi carried you out. The others smiled back at you, waving as they watched you and Atsushi leave the gym.
As soon as you'd left, Kuroko opened his mouth again
"So that's why Murasakibara was asking about where the rose garden was,"
Kise facepalmed and laughed a little
"Yes, it was. He wanted to surpris them with a truly romantic spot. God, you really are dense at times, Kurokocchi,"

I've got some more chronic Akashi brainrot for y'all...
I had re-watched parts of Last Game not too long and I remember the scene after Team Vorpal Swords won when Riko's dad bought a bunch of snacks and drinks for everyone to celebrate. While eating, Midorima asked Akashi (referring to the haphazard way snacks were spread across the table), "Are you sure you're okay with something so sloppy, Akashi?" And Akashi looked at him and said, "What are you talking about? We used to sit around and celebrate like this in middle school all the time."
It really stuck in my head for a reason I kinda mentioned the other day, when I was talking about Akashi's dynamic with Hayama. I won't explain that entire post, but I was mainly discussing how Hayama is touchy with Akashi but Akashi never minds, and the last sentence of my post regarding that was, "Akashi seems to be very unfazed whenever he's manhandled by his Rakuzan teammates which shows that he was never really that uptight about people touching him to begin with and people just assumed he was". This brings me to the main topic of this post: Akashi Seijuro and the assumptions the KNB cast has about his personality.
As I love to point out on this godforsaken app, Akashi has been done dirty by every adult in his life with the exception of his mother. So much of what went wrong in his 3rd year at Teiko was due to high expectations and the idea that Akashi was not allowed to be anything less than perfect at whatever he did, but at the root of all of this are assumptions.
False assumptions that he was able to handle such a heavy workload. False assumptions that he was ready to be captain in his second year. False assumptions that he was coping with stress well. False assumptions that he wasn't already cracking before he even enrolled in Teiko. He was let down so many times by so many people because people assumed he was okay when he wasn't and hadn't been for YEARS.
And I think it's a big reason as to how and why the rest of the Teiko gang unintentionally isolated Akashi back in middle school. They put Akashi on a pedestal and assumed that there was some sort of invisible barrier between him and the rest of the team. In the same way when, during Last Game, Midorima assumed Akashi would stick his nose up at... eating chips and drinking juice with the homies... everyone has this idea that Akashi is more haughty than he actually is? Akashi isn't haughty at all. In fact, the Replace Plus Chapters highlight the fact that he's the complete opposite. This boy saved a baby in one chapter, and as the mother of the baby profusely thanks him, he says "Anyone could have done that." As if he didn't showcase superhuman reaction time and reflexes by pulling a baby out of a runaway stroller coming down a hill at high speed right before the stroller was obliterated by an oncoming truck. 💀
These assumptions make even less sense when Akashi has already shown people how much he doesn't want to be put on a pedestal. Again, back to the scene in Last Game, Midorima assumed Akashi wouldn't be down for the "sloppy" afterparty, but Akashi had to remind Midorima that they'd already done things like that in middle school. Momoi has cute nicknames for every member of the Teiko gang except Akashi, who she refers to simply as "Akashi-kun". Maybe that was her assuming Akashi would never accept being called by a cute nickname. Never mind the fact that he already was being addressed as "Akashicchi" and "Aka-chin" by Kise and Murasakibara, respectively, and then later was being addressed as "Sei-chan" by Mibuchi. And you can't even argue that she didn't want to make Akashi uncomfortable, because Midorima has outwardly expressed before that he didn't wanna be called "Midorin" but Momoi just kept calling him that.
And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they're shitty friends for doing this. I just think that there was a lack of communication within the Teiko gang, and in an attempt to respect what they assumed were Akashi's boundaries, they unintentionally excluded Akashi from activities that he would absolutely participate in if he had just been given the chance.
This post is long asf so I'll just conclude here, but one of my delusional headcanons for the Teiko gang post-Extra Game is that Akashi becomes more open with them about how he feels and also about wanting to be included in more of their activities, and so he finally gets to experience having a regular hangout with friends like a regular teenager. I just think he deserves that so bad after feeling alone for so many years.

Could you write for KNB where gn reader has tattoos that are usually covered up with their school uniform and during the summer vacation training at the beach everyone gets to see them?
Not sure which school you wanted me to write for, so i just made a scenario with Seirin + GOM/Vorpal Swords :>
Beach Training Camp!
Kuroko No Basuke with Tattooed!Reader
Kinda long, I like writing about KNB characters a lot, they're too silly.
Tumblr media
It’s not like the guys hadn’t noticed the way you’d slyly pull down your already-long sleeves in front of them during practice. It got to the point where the team thought you were ashamed of your body, which led to a little intervention where they sat you down and started listing things that they liked about your personality, much to your confusion. They got really into it too: tearing up by the end. It was only until Kuroko muttered "You don't have to feel insecure around us, ok?" that you realised what they were trying to do.
"Why are you laughing?"
"Because that's not the reason I wear long sleeves!" you laugh out, clutching your stomach. "I thought you guys were trying to kick me out nicely!"
"...So what is the reason?" Koganei asks, Mitobe nodding along.
You chuckle a little more, still amused thinking about how long they must've been thinking this way.
"...Don't snitch."
The moment you pull up your sleeve, their eyes widen in disbelief...
...and not long after, the questions come flooding in.
"Is that a lizard?"
"Idiot, it's a dragon."
"Does this mean you're in a gang?"
"I thought the age to get a tatoo in Japan was 20."
"How did you get that?"
"Is it real?"
You chuckle once more, used to this kind of reaction.
"I lived in America, and the state laws were pretty soft on tattoos as long as you have writte consent from an adult. Got my first one a year ago, and now we're here."
Some turned to Kagami for some kind of confirmation on those laws, but he just shrugged, equally as shocked as they were.
-
-
Anyway, the events of the big tattoo reveal were 4 months ago, and it's still funny to look back on, even in the backseat of Kagetora's car, as you talk with Riko.
"But really, I never thought you'd have an arm covered in ink."
You laugh again, before putting on a cheeky grin.
"If you thought that was unbelievable, you have more to look forward to." you snicker, reading her confused reaction. She scans your outfit for stray areas of revealed skin, but to no avail.
"The hell are you planning..."
As you turn up at the beach, helping to unload the basketball hoops from Kagetora's boot, you see some familiar faces waving in the distance.
"Y/N-chii! Over here!" yells Kise, soon met with Aomine's palm to the back of his head.
"Moron, we're in public, you know." utters Midorima, pushing up his glasses.
Akashi and Murasakibara sit at a bench; one studying the antics and dynamics of the other three, the other chomping on a box of ice pops.
"Hey, I wasn't expecting to see all of you guys here." you say, impaling the pole of the hoop into the sand.
"Kuroko invited us, I assume we can stay?" Akashi replies.
You nod, smiling. "Of course! We're just waiting on the him and the others now."
Riko grunts, "Seriously, how can you invite people and then be the person who's late!" she exclaims, kicking the sand in an animalistic manner, earning a few confused glances from the others.
You laugh a little, before turning away, bag in hand.
"I'm just going to change into my beachwear, I'll be back soon."
"MAKE IT QUICK!" Riko yells, as you nod.
-
-
During your outfit change, the Seirin team turns up, jumping off the bus.
Immediately, Kuroko is met by a slap to the back of the head.
"Kuroko! If you wanna invite guests, tell your coach first!"
Kuroko mutters a little apology, timidly side-stepping away from her.
-
-
Eventually, a match begins. The Generation of Miracles on one, the Seirin team on the other.
Aomine gets a steal early on, before realising he can't dribble.
"Aomine-chii! Pass to me, don't just stand there, what are you looking at?" yells Kise, before his eyes land on you, jogging over with a more comfortable outfit for the heat.
"Hey, have you guys already started playing?"
Everybody just stares.
"...Hello?"
Riko is the first to say something.
"Lord."
There you stand, both arms littered with tattoos, along with ink traced along you collarbone and across your back. And don't forget the thighs.
"...What?" You ask, confused by the sudden attention.
Kuroko's eyes are just a little wider than usual, as he says, "I thought you only had one tattoo." You shrug, "Well, I didn't say I only had one tattoo."
Akashi squints his eyes at you from a distance, scrutinising you with his gaze.
"They look nice."
Aomine makes a point to act unbothered, but inside, he's freaking out. "oh my god they're a gang member i'm literally gonna get my ass beat holy shit i'm not ready i haven't even won an oscar before oh jesus i can't die like this i'm too young"
Kise on the other hand is very loud, commenting on all sorts of things, “Did you get those done here? In America? I have a fellow model with a similar design to that!”
Murasakibara just stares like a confused child, just glad that you’re here so that he doesn’t have to move around as much.
Midorima is also a member of team act unbothered, but backs up a bit. Not that he thinks that there's anything explicably wrong with having tattoos, but more so that Oha Asa predicted that "Cancers, watch out! You may encounter something or somebody dangerous today!". In hindsight, it was a ridiculous action to take; you'd always been so kind and welcoming to him and his team in previous matches and practice games, but we wasn't going to take the chance.
Kiyoshi is the first, and only person to laugh; he also laughed when you showed the team your first tattoo, he just finds these kinds of situations amusing.
Hyuuga and Kagami take the scolding route, half-heartedly berating you as you look at them kind of confused, they don't really mean anything, they just don't know how to respond to this kind of thing.
Izuki finds a way to crack a joke about the whole affair, much to the surprise of absolutely nobody.
Mitobe and Koganei compare notes scrawled on a little pad.
"Ha! I predicted it! 7 tattoos!" Koganei exclaims, as Mitobe sighs softly and hands him a ¥1000 note.
You giggle and clap your hands together.
"Let's continue the match!"
--------
Thanks for the ask!! Can you tell who my favourite characters are from the amount written for each LOL
Also omg an opportunity to write about Riko I will take any chance i get i love her personality so much

Hyūga Junpei, Imayoshi Shoichi, Okamura Kenichi, Ōtsubo Taisuke and Kasamatsu Yukio with S/O Visiting Them and The Team Didn't Know About It.
➽───────────────❥➽───────────────❥
A/N: Yo! @pillow-anime-infos thank you for requesting KNB headcanons! To be honest there are lots of captains that are my favorite in Kuroko no Basuke and it's hard to choose everyone so expect all of them and next part would be added in here!
Gender: Neutral
Warning: None

Hyūga Junpei - Seirin
Tumblr media
As someone who always demands respect from his juniors and gets strict, many Kouhais are low-key scared of him because they don't want to get shouted at by him.
Because of this, many people do not expect that he would have a S/O or someone who would be dating him because many people believe girls scared of him expect Riko who also can be as scary as him.
You can imagine their reaction after they that their Captain has a girlfriend/boyfriend, which is you. All of them are thinking 'How did captain score a perfect angel like you?'
Everyone was surprised when you come up to the gym with a smile on your face and waltzed into the room before greeting Riko and giving him a lunch box with a drink while everyone was on break.
Everyone was going to ask the captain until he gives a menacing glare at everyone, shutting them up quickly and pretending that they don't see anything at all.
The team does want to know more about their captain angelic s/o because they SAW you gave him a delicious bento box and a drink when he was on break.
When Hyuga is not around. I can see that many would surround you and ask you many questions and some of the questions made you couldn't help but laugh.
"Is Hyuga also scary around you and demanding you to respect him like a Senpai?" One of the team members ask and that's one of the examples of the question that made you laugh.
You can imagine their reaction once Hyuga comes back and gives them a scary glare and they immediately leave you alone after harassing you with many questions.
Ⰶ║ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ║Ⰶ
It was in the late afternoon around four and a half with students going home or going to their club activity. Sounds of shoes squeaking against the floor could be heard with sounds of basketball bouncing against the floor and getting inside the hoop of the basketball board inside of the gym room.
Inside the plastic bag on your left hand, there are many lunch boxes along with one drinking bottle. Every food inside of the lunch box was your hand made, including the sausages that were shaped into tiny octopus, avocado rolls, and salmon rolls along with diced eggs on the side.
A sound of whistle could be heard from inside of the gym room there was a familiar voice from inside the room. One of them is your friend Riko who were telling everyone to have a break after practicing and another familiar voice could be heard, it was your boyfriend Hyuga. Seirin's basketball Captain.
The corner of your lips tugged upwards before your hand reached out forward and pushed the door away, revealing all of the Basketball Team members who were enjoying their break time. The sounds of the door immediately made everyone looks up to see someone they have never seen before. Someone with (H/C) hair colour, (E/C) Eye colour and a beautiful smile on their/her/his face.
"Excuse me, I would like to talk with Hyūga-san," You said.
"Sure but may I ask who are you?" The boy with cat face asks you.
"Everyone! Excuse me but this is (Y/N)-san. Hyūga-san's girlfriend/boyfriend," Riko appear out of nowhere suddenly and introduced you to the whole team.
It was silence for a few seconds until it was the count of three and the whole gym was filled with sounds of 'EEHHHH?!' except Kuroko who only blinked in surprise. All of Seirin players except the first years surrounded poor (Y/N), not giving you any kind of space to breath or explain.
"SINCE WHEN THE TWO OF YOU ARE DATING?"
"Do you think Hyūga-san is scary?!"
"Does Hyūga-san treats you like a gentleman around you?!"
This makes your boyfriend get more and more annoyed with his team antics, all of them did not realize that they made you uncomfortable. His scary glare was stabbing their backs and all of them could feel his death glare, they swore they almost died because of the scary aura from their captain and the threatening glare.
One by one, all of the second years give you some space and leave you alone with your boyfriend. The Seirin's captain takes a deep breath before he is sauntering up to you," Gomen, (Y/N)-san. I didn't expect the team would react like that," he scratches the back of his head.
"Oh, it's alright. It's kind of funny when they were like that," you chuckle.
"Anyway, I brought a bento for you and also a drink for you. I hope you like it, I made it by myself," you gave him the lunch box.
Hyūga saw the box and he couldn't help but let out a little smile at (Y/N), grateful that you just came with a bento instead of eating Rik's food. Unknownbeast to you and him, the team were staring at him with jealousy because they don't have a girlfriend/boyfriend who would make lunches for them.

Imayoshi Shoichi - Touou
Tumblr media
In this headcanon, I believe that the team of Touou already expect this tricky whipped snake actually would have a boyfriend or a girlfriend.
However, they did not believe it is you. A living perfection dating with this demon since he's very tricky and sly (and I believe lots of girls are also low-key intimidated by him).
Especially Aomine, he would definitely say "Huh? Imayoshi dating with (Y/N)? Is she/he blind or something? I mean, he's evil and (Y/N) is....180 per cent different than that evil glasses." Whereas Imayoshi heard it and got irked by him but he's hiding it with his evil smile.
And Aomine got kicked out temporarily from the team after that comment. Imayoshi definitely would say "Aomine, today you are free from training until tomorrow and if anyone decides to comment anything about my (Y/N)-chan. Your training would be tripled," still with an evil smile
Some members of the team are low-key jealous of Imayoshi because they have a sweet S/O like you. Especially the way you spoil Imayoshi by giving him a drink, a bento or a cute banner to cheer him up.
Unlike Seirin team members. They would not just go up to you swarming you like a bee and harassing you with many questions. They respect you and give you some space except Momoi.
Momoi would definitely be asking about your relationship with Imayoshi, how he treats you and how long have you been dating the captain of Touou.
Imayoshi is glad that no one in Touou is going to make you uncomfortable and I believe he would let you befriend everyone, even Aomine too although he's a bit more guarded around him when you made friends with Aomine (he saw Aomine kicked Wakamatsu if you are a man and he knows Aomine is a pervert because of his gravure magazine if you are woman).
Ⰶ║ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ║Ⰶ
A satisfying click sound was heard, reaching out to your ears and the edge of your lips curved upwards before putting the lunch box inside of the plastic bag along with a pair of shirts, pants, a banner and a bottle of water. You're not a good cook but you're not a bad one either and you remember that Imayoshi enjoyed the last meal that you made for him which was grilled eel over a rice.
The sound of the phone ringing on the table filled the whole kitchen, almost making you drop the box from your hand but your reflect was quicker and taking the box safely in your hand before it falls to the ground. Putting the box away, your eyes decides to see the screen of your phone.
It was Momoi who called, pressing the green button on the phone and putting the phone on the table. It might seem rude to not put the phone close to your ear but you already learn the hard way that Momoi could be one of the loudspeaker on the phone, "Hey Momoi-chan. What's up, why do you need to call me?" (Y/N) asks.
"(Y/N)-CHAN!!! Please help me!! I'm trying to look for Dai-chan! He's nowhere to be seen. Could you handle the basketball team for a moment?! I already told Imayoshi-kun that you would be coming!"
"...Sure" You were glad that you didn't put it close to your ear, even if you did not press the speaker. Her voice was loud and clear.
"THANK YOU (Y/N)-SAN!! YOU'RE SUCH A SAVIOR!! GO TO GO! I NEED TO LOOK OUT FOR AHOMINE!" The phone was immediately closed off after she called her childhood friend 'Ahomine'. You didn't really want to handle a bunch of basketball players but you don't have the heart to break Momoi's trust, it seems that she really needs your help.
Letting out a sigh, it might be better to prepare some lunch for other players just in case they are hungry as silently you pray that 'Ahomine' won't be in the room. You heard from Momoi that he EATS a lot and sometimes the other players did not get some food or refreshment because of him.
Timeskip ︵‿︵‿︵\ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ/︵‿︵‿︵
The sound of the door opening immediately catches all of the Touou basketball players and everyone takes a glance at the newcomer. She/he/they have a mesmerizing (H/C) hair colour, beautiful (E/C) eye colour and a stunning (S/C) skin colour. All eyes were on you, looking up at you up and down as they were wondering who are is this stranger.
"Excuse me, sorry for interupting. May I speak with Imayoshi-kun?" You ask everyone.
"Ahh (Y/N)-chan/kun. Momoi just told me that you are going to come,"he pulls the door and stepping away, letting you get inside.
"Imayoshi-san. Is that your girlfriend/boyfriend?" An unfamiliar voice spoke.
He has spiky light blonde hair that is short in the front but longer in the back, dark brown eyes, and a fair skin complexion almost to medium skin tone. You heard about him before from your boyfriend's mouth, he often picks a fight with Aomine. "Ah, Wakamatsu-san, yes. This is my girlfriend/boyfriend, (Y/N) (L/N)."
"N-nice to meet you," You did not expect Wakamatsu would be awkward.
"Nice to meet you too, Wakamatsu-san. Anyway, I brought lunch for everyone and I made your favourite grilled eel in your bento, Imayoshi-Kun.." You gave the box to him.
Hearing that, everyone inside the room's ears immediately perked up, they did not expect the perfect angel of Imayoshi's romantic partner would made him a lunch, including everyone, even Wakamatsu too who's eyes widened.
Even though no one sees it, Imayoshi was internally bragging as his eyes were opened a little bit. He knew everyone in the room are jealous of him for having a such caring partner. With the last movement, he kisses the top of your head just to make every even more jealous, "Thank you (Y/N)-Chan/Kun for the lunch. I'll make sure share this bento for everyone."
Ⰶ║ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ║Ⰶ
Kasamatsu Yukio - Kaijou
Tumblr media
Kasamatsu is not someone who would flaunt his relationship with his teammate. In fact, he is someone who prefers where his teammates don't know that he is dating you.
No one knows that the two of you are dating, even Kise too. You can imagine all of Kaijou players' reaction once everyone know that their captain has a boyfriend/girlfriend (which is you).
Just like Seirin, everyone is going to surround you and asks you tons of questions which can be very uncomfortable for you if you don't like crowds.
If you are a girl, be prepared because Moriyama going to strut up to you and throw pickup lines, calling you cute and being all flirty which he would receive a kick from Kasamatsu.
Everyone, especially Kise and Moriyama is going to be really jealous of Kasamatsu because how did he score an angelic S/O like you?
Not only you brought a bento box at his break and gave Kasamatsu his favourite food but you also brought a bottle of water and a banner to cheer him up for his game.
I feel Kasarmatsu is also protective with you when you are around Kise with jealousy as reason. He's a little bit insecure because many girls have crush on him, (and you have to reassure him that you loves him for the way he is).
The only team members that Kasamatsu won't be protective around are Shinya and Koji. The two of them doesn't act like Moriyama when there's girls and they are not too loud like Hayakawa.

It was a big game for every player in Kaijou and every player prepares themselves with training and practice. All players were sweating, drenched from the top of their heads until their the bottom of their feet with their jerseys drenched in sweat. Everyone was training hard for the next game which they are going to face with Seirin after winning against Fukuda Sōgō.
Even though they win against Fukuda High School. You were still worried because after watching the match, you knew the guy with black hair and braided hair aren't only an aggressive player but he was also nasty.
It made you worried about your boyfriend's condition. Because of that, before seeing the matches between Kaijou and Seirin. You brought a banner inside of your bag, along with a water bottle and a lunch box as you would give him later after the match to cheer him up.
Zipping the bag, you pulled the key from the pocket of your tracksuit before slipping the key inside of the hole, twisting it and leaving the house to watch the match between your boyfriend's school and Seirin. You couldn't wait to meet your boyfriend and cheer him up.
Timeskip ︵‿︵‿︵\ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ/︵‿︵‿︵
The gym smells like sweat and Salons pass as you were standing on the viewer sit. There are many people in the tournament but there was some empty sits in the front, it's a perfect chance to see your boyfriend up close as you put your bag on top of the bench and pull out the banner from your bag.
All eyes were on you as you laid the banner out and you can see your boyfriend from far away. His eyes look at the banner as his whole face turns red slowly before he turns completely red. He does feel happy that you were there to cheer him up but his team mates see it too and there would be a chance everyone going to bother you.
"EHHH SENPAI?!? IS THAT YOUR GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIEND?!?!" Kise looks at you and then Kasamatsu.
"WOAHHH SENPAI HAS A BOYFRIEND/GIRLFRIEND!!" Hayakawa shouted.
"Oh Senpai, you have such cutie~" Moriyama winks at you.
"SHUT UP ALL OF YOU!" Kasamatsu growls at them except those who didn't do anything.
Ⰶ║ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ║Ⰶ
Ōtsubo Taisuke - Shuutoku
Tumblr media
Just like Kasamatsu, I cannot see him as the person who would show everyone his relationship if he has a boyfriend or girlfriend. Not because he doesn't trust his teammate but because he doesn't enjoy getting a bombarding question.
Because of that, I believe everyone in Shutoku might be shocked that their captain has girlfriend/boyfriend which is you, especially Takao.
Midorima and Miyaji might respect you and him without invading you and their captain's space. They might be curious about who are you and how you know their captain but they just gonna see you from far.
On the other hand, Takao would have no problem invading your space and ask you many questions about your relationship together with their captain.
He didn't mean anything harmful by the way or trying to make you uncomfortable. It's just because he sees his captain always serious, hardly laughing and often putting a stoic expression.
Seeing this, Otsubo just takes a deep breath and separates the two of you because I believe he knows what it feels like when you get bombarding questions whereas he wants just some peace.
Unlike Imayoshi and Kise, he won't be bragging around his teammates that he has a perfect S/O like you although he is proud that he has a caring and perfect s/o.
He is also internally embarrassed when you take care of him as his teammates see it. He knows that Takao would most likely tease him later.
Ⰶ║ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ║Ⰶ
The loud whistle alarms all players inside of the gym, stopping the practice of all members and their eyes are laid on the old man who happened to be their coach. He has straight charcoal black hair along the sides and reaches to his ear lobes as he has a dark shade of grey eyes with wrinkles underneath his eyes.
"Everyone, I would like you to stop your practice for a moment. I have some news for all of you but before you hear it. You all may have some fifteen-minute breaks and then all of you have to stretch after the news," Coach Nakatani told everyone.
All players sigh in relief after a long time of endless shooting and defence practice by blocking or screening some players by seniors versus juniors. The captain of Shutoku decides to go on the bench and taking his bag out before he's fishing for a water bottle but he realizes something that the bag isn't heavy at all, it was rather light.
Fear sank in before his hands reached out the zipper of his bag and pulled it on the other way to see it was just several notes that he took after the class. There was no lunch box or bottle of water, he had forgotten it and it was probably still laying on the dinner table in his house.
He silently curse himself for forgetting to bring his own lunch and drink as he doesn't want to spend his money just for a bottle of water until he heard a knock from outside of the gym and the sound of Coach Nakatani opening the door and spoke with the person behind the door. However, he notices the sound are very similar.
"Everyone! Please listen to my announcement and focus on me," all eyes are on the coach as they also see an unfamiliar person standing next to him.
Standing next to coach Nakatani, someone was standing next to him. They/she/he has an (E/C) eye colour, (H/C) Hair colour, and (S/C) skin colour. Ōtsubo then realizes that it is his boyfriend/girlfriend.
"I would like to introduce you to our new manager. Her/his/their name is (L/N)(Y/N). She will help you with the training regimen, foods and drinks preparatory, and observe each of your playstyles before training your weak aspects," Coach Nakatani explained.
"Hello everyone, my name is (Y/N) but you can call me (N/N). I would be your manager until Winter-Cup. Please take care of me," you bow down 45 degree at them.
"Okay, you all may continue have some break. I will take some papers in the office before coming back," Coach Nakatani told everyone before leaving the gym.
"Hey babe, I hope you don't mind. I brought some bentos for you and the team. Your mom also told me that you forgot your drink so I brought your bottle," you glance at the Captain of Shutoku.
All eyes were widened, especially Takao who looks at you with disbelieve, "W-WHAT?! WAIT- ARE YOU SENPAI'S GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIEND?"
"Ah yes, that would be me. I'm Otsubo-san girlfriend/boyfriend,"
A crack could be heard before you look up to see the guys with green hair and pairs of glasses were cracked, it was definitely an amusing sight to see everyone's jaw drop when they looked at you and Midorima's glass a little bit cracked because he was just too surprised.

Kenichi Okamura - Yosen
Tumblr media
If you have watched the show, you know that he always complains that no girl wants to date him because he believes he's not good-looking like other guys.
Poor baby is insecure because he believes that he believes no guys or girls going to like him until you came along and change his world and make sure that he feels loved.
Kenichi would also most likely brag about you to his team that finally a guy, a girl or someone is dating him and loving him for the way he is.
Sadly that no one believes that he is dating someone. If you watch the movie, his teammates literally make fun of him behind his back because of his haircut.
I can see because no one believes him that he's dating you, he finally shows you around Yosen players to prove that you are dating him with a big grin on his face.
Once everyone sees you, everyone's eyes widened and their mouth were gaping big like a fish. They couldn't believe that their captain finally have a girl/guy.
Everyone in Yosen including the coach does respect you and wouldn't swarm you around like bees, unlike Seirin and Kaijou teammates.
But yes they are curious so some players would try to befriend you but still gives you some space. However, some would still tease you since you are Kenichi's girlfriend or boyfriend.
Ⰶ║ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ ⵈ║Ⰶ
Sounds of cheers could be heard but none of the players of Yosen are on the field yet. Instead, all of them are still inside the dressing room and preparing themselves for the upcoming match with Seirin school. Some players were stretching and some are just lingering around on the sit , nervous about the upcoming match.
Kenichi, the captain of Yosen with a bog appearance and rough features glances at the screen on his phone, waiting for something or to be more exact he is waiting for you to call him and give him good luck since his team bill competing against the upcoming 'dark horse' or Seirin.
Fukui, his teammates saw him keep looking at his phone and it's really not like Kenichi at all. The ash-blonde hair player takes a peek from Kenichi's back, wondering why Kenichi just acting out of it "...What are you looking at?" the center player asks the captain of Yosen.
"I;m waiting for my girlfriend/boyfriend," Kenichi mumbles but still loud enough for him to hear it.
"...Are you lying?" Fukui asks.
"No! I-I have the proof! She/he/they said that they are going to see our match!" Kenichi tries to defend himself.
"Sorry captain but you're not popular despite you play basketball or not," Fukui said nonchalantly, not caring that he made the captain burst out in tears
"J-just wait you see! Y-you would see them in the spectator seats later!" Kenichi whines as he silently prays that you are on the viewer's sits.
Timeskip ︵‿︵‿︵\ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ/︵‿︵‿︵
One by one, all of the players of Yosen walk inside of the dim hallway of the tournament including Kenichi. His eyes look around until he sees you in the front sit holding out a banner with a smile on your face. "OKAMURA-SAN!! DO YOUR BEST!!" You shouted, waving the banner to show your excitement.
Your voice catches the attention of Yosen players, their eyes widened in surprise especially Fukui. They couldn't believe that their captain do have a girlfriend/boyfriend and plus his girlfriend/boyfriend are holding out a handmade banner to cheer him up but they were doubting it's his girlfriend, it might be his cousin or sister.
"I WILL!! EVERY SHOT IS FOR YOU BABE!!!" Kenichi made a kissy face at you while you giggled at his dorky nature. The scene of you and him being dorky together were sgockinf even though the two of you are far away. Every Yosen player immediately stun in silence after seeing the sight.

“C/N, don’t tell me you have a crush on Y/N? You keep looking at them.”
When you’re young, you’re stupid. It goes hand in hand. It’s natural. Young and stupid. So stupid you think even the most natural things are shameful. 
When you’re young, you can’t seem vulnerable. You’re constantly on your guard. You lie for everything and nothing. It’s not to be, it’s to appear. You appear, you test a new personality every week. You appear, you check the reaction of the kids you need to like. You appear, you forget the reaction of the kids you actually like.
“Me? With them? Someone like them? Never.”

Would you be able to write a oneshot or some headcanons for Kuroko x reader where reader is always hugging him from behind and giving him butterfly kisses while he's just standing there straight face? The episode at the pool where Momoi is shaking him back and forth cracks me up. "he's got the looks and personality of old drywall" 😭
Tumblr media
wc — 312
type — kuroko tetsuya x gn!reader
tw — n/a
✎ pls, these cute requests are too much, and i go overboard a little. but that's a good thing! actually, this specific request makes me miss actively watching knb. kinda want to rewatch it... anyway, hope you enjoy!
◃ to knb writings

❥ Kuroko Tetsuya’s known for holding a straight, nonchalant expression on his face.
❥ However, only a select few were allowed to see the emotion that is buried deep within his body, and you were one of those people.
❥ Your way of expressing your love for someone is through physical touch.
❥ But the first time you gave your partner, Kuroko, a hug, he froze up immediately.
❥ Before the two of you got together, the only person who’d give him hugs and affection was Momoi, but he saw it as a mere-friendly reaction.
❥ Yet, when you hugged him from either behind or the front, Kuroko wouldn’t understand what to do in that situation, particularly for the first month or so of your relationship.
❥ As time went by, Kuroko grew more comfortable with you, so his reaction is less dramatic than before whenever you give him your back hugs.
❥ Butterfly kisses landing on his cheek on the other hand… that took some time for him to adjust to.
❥ Again, Kuroko wasn’t really big on physical attention before getting together with you, so he, especially, wasn’t used to the sudden, warm feeling overloading his cheeks whenever your lips made contact with them.
❥ It took even longer for him to get used to your surprise kisses than it did for the hugs.
❥ Nonetheless, Kuroko’s back to his neutral appearance whenever you give him the slightest bit of physical attention, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t bubbling with happiness and warmth within.
❥ He may not know how to express it on his face or through his actions properly, but everyday, he tries his best for you.
❥ Occasionally, those small acts of love bring the tiniest hint of a smile to his lips along with a faint blush appearing on his cheeks.
❥ Kuroko Tetsuya may be a shadowy figure to others, but to you… he’s the light in your eyes.

Hello how are you ♡ Can I ask for headcanons with Akashi, Midorima and Imayoshi and how would they react with their partner who is Chinese and doesn't know how to speak any language and speaks very little of the boys' language? It would be fun to see their reaction when they see their partner speaking Chinese in front of them. Thank you so much if u see this and have a good day or night 😊
ohhh this is such a fun request, so thank you for it!! 💕 I used to learn mandarin chinese when I was in middle school so I kinda have a soft spot for Chinese culture now hihi <3 so here's your request, hope you like it and sorry for taking so long!!
Tumblr media
わからない - 我不知道 // KNB Headcanons
Tumblr media
Context: in which reader only speaks chinese and the boys have no clue what they're saying. (Also, title reads "wakaranai - wǒ bù zhīdào", meaning "I don't know" in japanese and mandarin chinese respectively)
Pairings: Akashi, Midorima and Imayoshi x gn!reader
Warnings: just fluff and a bit of crack, very safe for all publics!
Tumblr media
AKASHI
Let me just say first, to imagine that this man doesn't already know how to speak Chinese is kinda hard
Like as the heir of an important family, he has to speak multiple languages
So in his case, I'd say it's more that he's not fluent in Chinese more than him actually not speaking of word of it
In any case, he makes it his mission to resolve that communication issue
Language? That'll never be a barrier for him
See, Seijurō speaks gentleman
No need for you to know what he's saying or vice-versa because boy literally doesn't have to talk to treat you like a queen, yk?
But sometimes you kinda have specific demands and there he actually has to listen and translate
Because he's a genius, the little Chinese he already knows + his ability of picking on context cues help him understand you without much translation needed
And in the rare case he's wrong, he'll note down the words and phrases he didn't get so he can enrich is vocabulary
He thinks it's more important for him to adapt to your language than for you to adapt to his
Like he doesn't want to burden you with learning a new language just for him
But if you actually want to learn Japanese, Akashi is the man!
(Not quite actually)
He can be a tough teacher and something that's easy for him, might not be for the common person, which he has a hard time wrapping his head around
All in all, language is not really an issue for him
Best believe he's learned how to say "我爱你" (wǒ ài nǐ) first thing because he's a romantic like that <3
MIDORIMA
Shintarō never thought he'd like someone he couldn't understand, yet here he is
Maybe because you're so damn nice and pretty that he gets your vibe without even talking to you
But he didn't start dating you as soon as he took a liking to you; it's very important for him to be able to communicate with you first
So he started straightaway with learning as much as he could of Chinese language and culture
Listened to you very carefully to know which dialect you were speaking so he could learn this one specifically
He kinda got mad at some point during the process of learning, though, because some characters are the same and have the same meaning in both languages, but they're not pronounced the same
But he pulled through just so he can talk to you properly and get to know you better
When you tell him you're gonna learn Japanese, he's very supportive
He'll always correct you when you make mistakes though, which gets a bit annoying
But you know it's from good intent so that's alright
Will absolutely pester you about Chinese Zodiac so strap on, darling
Man will end up basing his luck on a mix of both zodiac signs and he'll definitely do the same for you 😭
IMAYOSHI
Oh, so you don't speak his language and he doesn't speak yours?
That's absolutely not an issue to my man here
He actually finds this quite amusing
He relishes in all the miscommunications that happen between you, that's just entertaining to him
But he'll eventually start to realise that it's a bit of an issue on the daily
Especially because he's such a sweet talker and a sacarstic dude that he kinda gets frustrated that he can't communicate that to you
So when it comes to learning Chinese, you can bet he crams a lot so that he can be fluent enough to be witty
Gives you a hard time learning Japanese, though
He's the kind of fucker that has fun using complicated sentences and figurative language just to make you confused
So the only way to strike him back is by talking to him in dialect and phrases
Loves this little game of "who's gonna make the other more confused"
Leave it to Imayoshi Shoichi to make language barrier entertaining 🙄

Bee!! hi bby
i was wondering if you’d like to indulge me on how Akashi, Kise, and Hanamiya from KNB would handle a “there’s only bed” type of situation? especially if it’s pre relationship and they’re into you but you don’t know that yet ! >.> hehe thank you ! 💕
Gray no one makes me feral for Hanamiya like you do lololol I am a monster that u created
Divider by @/cafekitsune
Tumblr media
Akashi, The Gentleman
Without a doubt, Akashi would semi-successfully push his feelings for you aside and attempt chivalry. He will offer the bed to you and have a backup plan for himself in mind. I think mostly, he wouldn’t want to overstep the bounds of the friendship you already have, and would be careful to not let his feelings for you cloud his better judgement and your comfort.
And you… well. I don’t think you’d want to force him to sleep on the floor. You’d reason to yourself and to him that there’s plenty of room for you both, that there’s no worry about close proximity making things feel weird. And you’d believe it until you feel the sheets moving with each breath he takes and feel the warmth radiating from his body so strongly that you swear it burns your skin.
Akashi is all you can smell and hear and feel and see. He’s a foot away from you and still overhauling your senses. Under his cloud, you reason: it’s kind of cold. Surely it wouldn’t be a big deal if you closed the distance. Right. He can’t be upset with you. Right? Right.
Right?
Without taking the time to talk yourself out of it, you press yourself against him and to your absolute shock, surprise, and excitement, he wraps his arm around you comfortably and tucks you into his side. He squeezes your arm, almost like a silent question: is this okay?
Your response comes in the form of nuzzling closer to him and making yourself comfortable: yes.
Hanamiya, The Menace
Listen. I hate him so much (no I don’t). He sprawls out in the bed and takes great pains to ignore you for a few minutes before his eyes slyly slide over to you and he quirks his brow with a smirk on his lips and says something like:
“You gonna lay down or stand there?” And when you make a face at him, trying to hide the reaction his words have on your body, his smirk grows and his eyes glint with mischief and he says, “don’t give me that look, darlin’.”
Your heart is hammering in your chest and your face feels hot because really he’s so fucking annoying and irritation sparks in your veins but it isn’t really because he’s so insufferable, and you know that- you know the irritation is jolting you because you like it and you like him and you like when he fucks with you and it makes you feel soft and gooey and hot like lava.
You try to avoid him. Really, you do. But the way he’s sprawled out makes it impossible to not be against his body somehow, so you settle with your back facing him, curled onto your side in the space between his arm and leg, spread wide like a starfish. Your head isn’t even on a pillow.
The closeness is so much for you. You swear you feel his eyes on you, raking over your skin inch by inch.
And then he starts touching you. It’s almost timid at first and you try to ignore the way his forearm fucks up your hair, feigning sleep with all your might, but you can’t ignore it anymore when you feel his weight shift as he rolls toward you, other hand sliding onto your thigh.
He takes your stillness as permission. And he wraps his arm firmly around your waist and pulls your back to his chest, fully enveloping you in his embrace. There’s no escaping him now. You wiggle a bit, trying to see how tightly he’s got you, when he pulls you right back.
“Stop moving,” he mumbles, eyes closed but fully awake, “I’m sleeping.”
And he wraps his leg up and over both of yours and there’s no hope for you to move.
Kise, The Flirt
He doesn’t even try to hide the fact that he’s thrilled. Kise looks at you, eyes gleaming and warm with a big smile on his face and coos your little nickname and says, “isn’t it wonderful we get to spend the night together?”
You hate how his words clearly mean multiple things. And on cue, you feel warm and bashful as the meaning of his words wash over you. Honestly, it’s rude.
“Watch it, or you’ll sleep on the floor.”
He gasps, dramatically resting his hand on his chest as his eyes grow wide with disbelief and betrayal.
“You would make me sleep on the floor!?” He covers his face as your nickname rolls off his lips once more, “how could you?”
Like always, his performance has you fighting a grin, trying to bite and swallow it down but ultimately losing that battle as it pulls at your lips. He peeks at you with one eye before covering it once more with his hand.
“Oh, the humanity!” He cries, flopping on the bed.
And now, you’re laughing, dropping your bag by the foot of the bed and crawling up too, enticed by his playful nature.
“Calm down, drama queen, I won’t make you do that.”
Instantly, he brightens, sitting up and pulling your hands into his, allowing his fingers to close over yours with ease, dwarfing them.
“You’re so kind and so good,” he praises, bowing his head and pressing his forehead to your joined hands to show his gratitude.
But then his eyes change, and they grow sly and he smirks at you with a quirked brow and speaks.
“I can think of several ways to return the favor of your generosity. Let me show you.”

I'm so excited this blog is back! I forget about KNB sometimes just because of all the new anime, but it is dear to me and so is this blog because of it!
For a request, and it can be a scenario or headcanons, whichever you prefer, can you do Kuroko, Kise, and Himuro's reactions to their (mutual) crush getting roped into doing one of Kise's photoshoots with him?
Like the shoot is stalled because the model supposed to be opposite of him is late (could be due to traffic or maybe they have prima donna syndrome and holding up the shoot to have their demands met), and when crushicchi happens to pass by and stops to chat with Kise, the director or photographer sees them interacting and thinks, "…yeah, that'll work!" And then suddenly they're swept up in a whirlwind of hair, makeup, and wardrobe before they're urged on set and just told to act like Kise's their boyfriend in the pictures. (He's certainly not gonna have a problem with it!)
As far as how Kuroko in Himuro are involved, it could be that that one or both were already hanging out with their crush before their hangout session got interrupted by everything, or maybe they won't find out until they see the ads until later when they get published, it's up to you. Sorry if this was really specific.
I went for a bit of a mix between scenario and headcanons, I hope you don't mind. It's a format I've been playing with recently! Admin Neon
Tumblr media
You were beginning to think you should have never answered Kise's call.
As the makeup artist dabbed an oversized puff to your face, spreading around powder that would mattify your foundation, you had to resist the urge to sneeze. As your own makeup artist turned away from you to pull out an array of eyeshadows, you took the opportunity to glance at your companion.
Beside you, in the seat right next to yours, Kise is sitting as still as a statue while his own makeup is applied. He looks downright professional, closing his eyes at the appropriate moments and holding his breath to stay as still as possible.
"What kind of photoshoot is this anyway?" you ask to anyone willing to answer.
"It's a campaign for a new set of matching women's and men's clothing," your makeup artist replied, using one of her hands to tilt your chin up. As she pressed a small brush of color to your eyelids, she continued, "Things like pajama sets, outing clothes, and swimwear."
You flinched away from your makeup artist in surprise at her words. Pajama sets? Outing clothes? Swimwear? "Kise, this sounds like a couple's photoshoot."
Your only response from the blonde was an amused smile as his artist began powdering his face.
Kise was not a conniving man and to say it was his fault his original costar for the photoshoot got a violent case of food poisoning would be a lie — how was he supposed to know the pasta on the snacks table had been sitting for a while and was no good?
he already had you on speed dial the second he heard his costar had fallen ill; not because he especially wanted to do the shoot with you or anything, but because you owed him a favor
he spends a lot of the photoshoot smiling more than usual — the photographer actually has to scold him for once about keeping that dopey grin off his face
during the entire photoshoot, Kise is taking the opportunity to brush his hands along any skin of yours that was deemed appropriate for the photos — pajama sets? he's got his arms wrapped around you; outing clothes? he's holding your hands or wrapping his arms around your shoulders; swimwear? this is where he hesitates a bit...
he's never seen you so exposed and to say he wasn't enjoying the view would be a lie, but he was a professional, so he did his best to hide his excitement and settled for placing his hands on your exposed waist
all in all, you actually end up having a fun time and, much to Kise's pleasure, tell him he can call you as a backup plan whenever
The next day, Kise was on the phone with Kuroko, holding him hostage in conversation and retelling all the events from the photoshoot.
"Kurokocchi, it was so cute!" he gushes, holding his phone close to his ear so he could make sure Kuroko heard every tone and inflection in his voice; he was so happy. "____cchi looked amazing in every outfit and the photographer and makeup artists loved having them around! ____cchi even said I could call again if I ever need an emergency costar!"
On the other end of the call, Kuroko merely gave a disinterested hum. This only spurred the blonde to continue in his ravings, mentioning all the different types of pictures the two of you had to take.
"It got a little romantic near the end when the date night clothes came out," Kise reminisced. Then, as an after thought, he added, "Oh, I should send you my favorite ones! I was able to get copies."
"You really don't have to do that," Kuroko tried to say, but he was interrupted by Kise's continued rant.
"I think you'll really like this one. ____cchi and I look like an actual couple! Maybe we could even—" There was a click on the other end of the line. "K-Kurokocchi? Did the call cut out? Hello?"
it wasn't that Kuroko wasn't listening to his blonde friend, but the moment Kise had mentioned your name as the costar he'd done the photoshoot with, Kuroko had lost all interest in the conversation
he didn't hate you — no quite the opposite, in fact; Kuroko was just having a really hard time listening to Kise gush about you as if you and the blonde were already a couple
when Kise didn't get the hint and sent over a picture or two from the photoshoot, Kuroko didn't open them at first; he didn't want to see you in such close poses with a man who wasn't him
eventually curiosity gets the better of him and Kuroko does end up looking at those pictures — he's trying really hard to ignore Kise in them, only wanting to look at you
he finds that if he zooms in, maybe even crops out his friend, he can smile more at the picture instead of feeling that burning coil of jealousy in his stomach
instead of responding to Kise, Kuroko begins texting you about the photoshoot instead; even if he's feeling jealous over who you had to take pictures with, he still wants to congratulate you on a job well done
It was weeks later that the photoset was released to the public and, in your excitement to see yourself in a magazine, you headed over to the nearest convenience store. Tagging along with you was your classmate, Himuro, and his tall friend from basketball — they were on a grocery run.
As you stepped into the aisle where all the reading material was kept, your eyes were instantly drawn to the magazine in question. "Holy shit, he didn't mention we'd be on the cover."
You picked up the magazine to flip through it, Himuro behind you as he looked over your shoulder. He was silent as you flipped through the pages, looking at all the photos that had made it through to the final cut.
"You look really good in these," he comments, leaning ever so slightly to get a better view — he was looking at you, of course, not at the pictures.
The compliment brought a light flush of color to your face and you smiled at him in return. Placing the magazine into your grocery basket so you could purchase a copy, you trailed along after Himuro as he lead you through the store for the rest of the grocery trip.
on the outside, Himuro had a rather calm appearance about him; nobody would really know that on the inside he was seething about the pictures he saw
his amazement at your skill — despite it being your first photoshoot, nonetheless! — had been genuine at first, but then you flipped onto the page where the swimwear was being displayed
to say his blood ran cold when he saw the way Kise was holding onto you in that photograph would be an understatement; Himuro wasn't stupid and, even through a picture, he could see the desire Kise had in his eyes that day
he tries to move past his feelings of jealousy; after all, at the end of the day, Himuro was the one who saw you the most often since it was his school you attended — he had you to himself most of the year, he supposed he could share you a little
later on he asks you which of the photos you had taken was your favorite — he still wants to show you that he's interested in what you like to do — and he's mentally ecstatic when you show him a picture that isn't so intimate
he asks for a copy of that picture and places it as your icon in his phone; of course, it isn't his fault that Kise gets completely cropped out, the whole picture just wouldn't fit...

———
Round One
Kazunari saunters into the lounge, shooting a peace sign at his fellow Mankai members gathered there. “Yoo! Kazunari Miyoshi’s in the house bringing the sauce! ✩” 
Sakyo sighs. “Just get on with whatever frivolous agenda you have in mind already.”
“Now, now, Sakyo-san,” Izumi says placatingly. “Kazunari-kun wouldn’t call a company meeting for no reason.”
“Director-chan is right—it’s super-duper important! Take a look!” Kazunari casts his phone to the lounge TV. “Lookie, we’ve been entered into another tournament! ♪”
That gets some mixed reactions from the various Mankai members. Kumon and Taichi start bouncing off the walls with excitement, Banri goes, “Seriously? Another one? Do these people have nothing better to do?”, and Muku mumbles, “Oh, I hope they’re being nice…”
“How many tournaments does that make now?” Itaru questions, sparing a brief glance up from his phone. “There was the pink-blue tournament and the pink-green tournament that Yuki and Muku were nominated for. And not to mention the Spring and Winter Troupes, as well as the whole company, were entered into the found family tournament. Can you imagine if we had to face off against each other? Like Spring Troupe versus Mankai Company, which also contains the Spring Troupe.”
“There’s also the ‘green hair and pronouns’ tournament that Yuki and I are in,” Chikage says. “It was… interesting trying to explain the ‘pronouns’ bit to my coworkers, to say the least.”
“Wasn’t the Director entered into the ‘most visual novel character’ tournament or something?” Kumon wonders, a pensive frown replacing his previous excitement. “What’s that even supposed to mean, anyway? Like, are we actually fictional characters or—”
“This time they’re ranking our outfits on Tumblr!” Kazunari cuts off Kumon’s impending existential crisis by flashing the aforementioned outfits tournament page on the TV. 
“Oh, so we’re competin’ against each other this time instead of being pitted against those basketball people and some dogs,” Banri says. “Sounds fun, especially considerin’ how varied everyone’s fashion sense is.”
“Thank god,” Yuki sighs, his shoulders sagging with relief, “because if I hear one more ‘HE’S NOT BLUE HE’S GREEN’ I’m actually going to enter my villain arc. It was exhausting fighting for my life just to stay in the pink-blue tournament, never mind making it to second place.”
“We did well, though, Yuki-kun! We even made friends with Aomine-kun and Momoi-san. They sent their congratulations for us getting to the finals of the pink-green tournament, by the way.” Muku takes a proper look at the outfits bracket, and his head droops. “Oh, but it looks like we’re competing against each other this time… As in, we’re paired up in the very first round.”
“Seriously? Well, I guess it makes for a nice change of pace since we’ve been entered as a duo in two tournaments now.”
Tsumugi makes several attempts to scroll down the list of categories, nearly reporting the poll moderator for spam three times before finally remembering how scrolling on a touch-screen works. “Wow, there are so many categories. Spring outfits, summer outfits, autumn outfits…”
“Damn, looks like the fans caught on to the fact that we own five copies of the same outfit and we just cycle through one set per season,” Banri says.
“Yeah, actually, WHY do we do that?” Taichi asks. “I’d really like to have some variety in my closet, but every time I try to pick out a shirt I don’t own it’s like there’s some external force compelling me to either buy four more copies of it or don’t buy it at all. I asked my friends at uni if this has ever happened to them too and they asked if I had a fever…”
Banri shrugs nonchalantly. “Makes it easier for whoever has to code our game to just paste our sprites into the different settings we’re supposed to be in, I guess.”
Kumon’s face drains of colour. “Wait, but if that’s the case then doesn’t that mean we’re REALLY fictional chara—”
“‘Travel outfits’? ‘hAve A greAt trip’?” Guy asks. 
“Oh yeah, that. Before you, Chikage-san, Kumon, and Azami joined, we planned a company-wide trip to some Europe-coded place and so we all decided to buy five copies of a brand new outfit instead of just using any of the five copies of the outfits we already had,” Tenma explains, in the same manner one would explain that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
Azami rescues Kazunari’s phone from Tsumugi before he accidentally reports the moderator for spam again or worse. He scrolls down the list of the first round’s results and cringes. “No offence but like… what the FUCK are some of these? You call THESE looks? Tenma-san, why were you wearing a life jacket? Was there a risk of drowning at ANY point during the trip?”
It’s an impressive feat how Yuki manages to pinch his expression in such a delicate, dignified manner that still conveys the highest degree of scorn possible. “See, I TOLD you the life jacket was a bad look, you stupid tasteless hack. But did you listen? Nooo, because apparently trusting your costumer’s fashion advice is a terrible idea. Look at how badly you lost to Banri—he beat you by 70 percent.”
Banri snatches the phone from Azami, despite the results being very obviously displayed on the TV screen. “Holy shit, really? Talk about a fucking ratio, Jesus Christ.”
Tenma’s face flushes bright red. “S—some people didn’t like YOUR outfit either, Yuki!”
“The worst I got was ‘it’s a bit busy’. Some fans said you looked like a CHILD, which honestly isn’t wrong since you do behave like a manchild 90 percent of the time. Others said you looked like you were going FISHING.”
“And what’s wrong with fishing?!”
“Nothing wrong with it in and of itself, but wearing fishing gear when you’re clearly not going fishing is a breach of at least ten consecutive fashion rules.”
“It’s okay, Tenma!” Misumi hands Tenma a consolation Mr. Triangle. “You can wear your travel outfit and I’ll wear my summer outfit and we can go fishing for triangular fish together!”
“Do such fish even exist?!”
Wanting to check the result of his match, Muku politely borrows Kazunari’s phone from Banri. Disappointment flashes across his face before he hastily plasters on a smile. “Yuki-kun, you won! Congratulations!”
“Oh?” Yuki eyes the comments and results—which show an overwhelming landslide of a victory of 84.6 percent to 15.4 percent—then Muku’s face. With a sigh, he reaches out with both hands and smushes Muku’s cheeks together.
“Hnhhooheehhoo?”
“Don’t make that face—that fake smile hiding your disappointment. Lots of fans were rooting for the both of us, you know? They said we looked cute together because we were matching with your jacket and my skirt. Some of them even wanted us to tie so we could progress on through the tournament as a pair.”
“Hmhhghee?” Muku repeats himself after Yuki releases his face, “Really? But is that even allowed?”
“Uh—” Yuki does a quick scroll through the blog. “Probably not. In previous instances of ties, the mod would put the contestants into some name-picking wheel to decide the winner. Sounds kinda arbitrary to me but I guess it can’t be helped if it really is a 50-50 split.”
“But it’s the thought that counts,” Kazunari says cheerily, draping his arms over both Yuki and Muku’s shoulders. “‘Sides, Mukkun, you bagged third place in the summer fits category! That’s nothing to scoff at!”
“Even if the mod did allow people who tied to continue as a unit, aren’t you guys sick of constantly being paired up in these tournaments?” Tenma asks.
“No,” Yuki retorts, his tone turning icy. “Muku is a good campaign-mate, because unlike a CERTAIN traitorous hack HE didn’t vote for those dogs over his own troupe mates in the pink-and-blue finals.”
Tenma flinches like he’d been slapped. “LISTEN, they’re not just ‘those dogs’. Blue and Magenta are absolute icons—”
“And I don’t CARE. Muku and I are your troupe mates for god’s sake. You SAW how we were fighting for our lives to prove that I’M pink and HE’S blue despite what our hair colours might indicate, so CAN IT.”
Kazunari’s phone, being passed around the lounge like a blunt, is now with Taichi—who is curled up on the floor sobbing. “W—was my outfit really that bad? I thought it looked nice when I went to buy five copies of it for the trip… Are Hawaiian prints really that ugly? Do I really look like a white dad with a mild alcohol addiction? I’m not even white! Or a dad!”
“There, there,” Omi soothes, gently patting Taichi’s head. “See, someone here defended you; they said you looked cute. I was dragged pretty brutally for my choice of shorts too—someone said I looked like I, uh, ‘pissed paint’ on myself? Which sounds incredibly painful and also difficult to clean up?—so at least we’re in it together.”
Taichi sniffs and looks up at Omi with watery eyes. “That’s… ouch. Still, you made it to round two at least, Omi-kun!”
“Oh yeah, you beat that shitty four eyes,” Azami says. He takes Kazunari’s lounge-hopping phone from Taichi and clicks on the first poll, then turns to sneer at Sakyo. “Looks like it’s another loss in your pocket, old man. Must be fun collecting those, huh? The only time you made it past round one was in the autumn outfits category; I ratioed your wrinkly boomer ass in every other category I was in.”
Sakyo glowers at him. “We’re only halfway through the tournament, brat, nothing’s been decided yet. What the hell is that term, anyway? That’s not how you use the word ratio.”
“Oh wow, tell me you’re an out of touch boomer without telling me you’re an out of touch boomer.”
“Excuse you, I’m a millennial.”  
Near the puddle of tears Taichi is lying in, Kumon too is bawling into Juza’s chest. 
“H—how did Nii-chan lose?” he hiccups between sobs. “That… that outfit was so cool! Everything Nii-chan wears looks cool!”
Juza scratches the back of his neck awkwardly. “Guess orange really doesn’t go with my hair.”
“I personally quite like it, Juza-kun!” Homare declares with a wide sweep of his hand. “It was an artistic mix of colours. The orange in your shirt pulls the eye, while the neutral colours of the rest of your ensemble balances out your overall aesthetic making your top the centre of attention!”
Having finished thoroughly dragging Tenma through the mud for his ill decision to vote for Blue and Magenta over his own troupe mates in the pink-blue finals, Yuki turns to Kazunari. “You know, for a guy who lost and got some rather polarised reactions in the tags, you seem to be in a pretty good mood.”
“I mean, it’s all in good fun, y’know!” Kazunari replies breezily. “And my fit was supposed to be artsy. Avant garde, even! Not everyone’s gonna like it but that’s okay! The fact that some fans liked it, and one cutie patootie even used my look in their presentation slides as decor, makes me totes happy! Plus, Saku-saku’s look was super adorbs too so it was lit getting to go up against him! ✩”
Sakuya perks up at the mention of his name. “Thank you, Kazunari-san! I’ll keep working hard in the rest of the tournament to make you proud!”
At that, Kazunari’s eyes turn into the pleading emoji eyes, and he places a hand on his chest. “D—do you mean that, Saku-saku?”
“I do! One hundred percent!”
Kazunari nods. “That’s good to hear, ‘cause—” He inhales, then collapses dramatically to the floor.
“Kazunari-san?! Oh my gosh, Kazunari-san!” Sakuya cries out, falling to his knees by Kazunari’s side.
“T—that means my work here is complete… and—and I can move on… with no regrets…” Kazunari stage-whispers. His chest shuddering with uneven breaths, he clasps Sakuya’s hands in his trembling ones. “Thank you… friend… for making my final battle a worthwhile one…”
Sakuya’s eyes fill with tears. “K—Kazunari-san, you can’t go yet! Not like this! There’s still five categories left!”
“I knew… my time… in this tournament… was always going to be limited. Th—that’s why… it was an honour to have my final defeat at your hands… your sweet swaggy spring hands…”
“No, you can’t! It was only round one! I know you can go so much further in the other categories! Things can’t end like this!”
“Please, friend… I don’t have much time. Promise me… you’ll carry my hopes and dreams with you… and go as far as you can. Only you… can fulfil this dying wish of mine…”
“I—” Sakuya fiercely wipes his tears away with his shoulder since his hands are still wrapped up in Kazunari’s. “Alright, then. If it’s your final wish that’s what I’ll do. I’ll go as far as I can and carry your hopes and dreams with me! Please watch over me from the other side, Kazunari-san!”
A faint smile spreads across Kazunari’s pale lips. “That’s all… I could have ever asked for, friend. As long as you keep me in your heart… I will live forever…”
With that touching final message, Kazunari Miyoshi flops back onto the floor like a dead fish. Despite the absurdity of the bit, Izumi can’t help the pride that fills her at how far the both of them have come as actors—especially when Sakuya throws himself on Kazunari’s unnervingly still chest and lets out an absolutely heart-wrenching wail of “KAZUNARI-SAAAN!” Banri glances at them with raised eyebrows and mutters, “Now what in the shounen anime death scene is going on over there…”
“Looks like the Winter Troupe has received some interesting feedback on our outfits too,” Azuma says, scrolling through the Tumblr page on his phone since Azami is still holding Kazunari’s hostage. 
Tasuku winces when he spots some choice comments about Hisoka’s scarf. “Some people really didn’t like Mikage’s scarf, huh?”
“Oh yeah, the comment about going to clown college was brutal, LOL,” Itaru says.
“Mm…” Hisoka stirs on Azuma’s lap, his eyes blearily cracking open. “Don’t wanna go to clown college.”
Chikage rolls his eyes. “You wouldn’t survive a day at any college, never mind clown college. You’d be falling asleep during class and failing all your assignments. Actually, would you even do them in the first place?”
“Maybe. If they were about marshmallows.”
Azuma smiles down at Hisoka. “A degree in marshmallows? Sounds perfect for you.”
“Mhm. Marshmallogy. I want a degree in that. No, not just a degree. A masters… a PhD.”
“‘Professor Mikage’ does have a nice ring to it,” Tsumugi chuckles.
“Yeah, but his full title would be ‘Professor H. Mikage, PhD in Marshmallogy’,” Tasuku says. “What kind of PhD is that?”
“A good one,” Hisoka mumbles, already drifting back to sleep.
“More like a complete waste of college tuition,” Chikage retorts dryly.
Tsumugi leans closer to Azuma’s phone and lets out a thoughtful hum. “You know, I’m pretty surprised our fans don’t recognise the SSAW logo on my shirt.” 
“That’s because it’s a really obscure brand,” Tasuku points out. “As in, so obscure I think I’ve only seen our company members wearing their stuff. Actually, if it weren’t for our company members buying five copies of every item, their business probably would’ve gone under by now.”
A soft laugh escapes Azuma as he reads through the comments on his poll. “My, I don’t think I’ve been called a GILF before. I’m glad they find my outfit charming.”
“‘GILF’?” Sakuya, having finished grieving Kazunari’s tragic demise in record time, echoes innocently as he trots over. “What does that mean?”
In unison, all the adults in the vicinity stiffen and exchange looks with each other.
Tasuku raises his eyebrows. Who’s gonna tell him?
Homare shakes his head. Certainly not me. I will not be responsible for tainting young Sakuya’s purity!
Azuma brushes Hisoka’s bangs away from his face. He’s a young man now, no longer a boy. Surely it can’t hurt to tell him?  
Chikage adjusts his glasses. I think it’d be more interesting to leave him in the dark.
Itaru taps on his phone pointedly. No one tell him anything. There’s a new gacha coming up soon and I need his innocence untainted so I can bring home my best girl’s SSR without having to spend IRL money.
Tsumugi rubs the back of his head. Sorry, I think I’m in the same boat as Sakuya-kun. What DOES ‘GILF’ mean?
Hisoka snores. Zzz. 
“Um…?” Sakuya pipes up hesitantly, glancing back and forth between the adults making silent but very intense eye contact with each other.
Masumi pops up behind him. “It probably means something like ‘Grandma I’d like to fuck’.”
“GAH, MASUMI-KUN!” Sakuya yelps, nearly leaping a foot into the air.
Azami makes a sound like a boiling kettle. “IT MEANS WHAT NOW?!”
Itaru flings a cushion at Masumi. Or attempts to, but instead it just flops down sadly at his feet. “Masumi, your speaking rights have been revoked. Never speak a single word again unless you can afford to pay for my gacha tokens.”
“Tch, annoying.” Masumi scuffs his slipper on the floor, scowling. “Anyway, how did I lose to that guy over there? His outfit wasn’t anything special. It’s just a leather jacket. And those shoes were ugly.”
“I’m not a stickler for honorifics or anything, nor am I particularly sensitive about my fashion sense, but at least call me by my name,” Tasuku shoots back. “I dunno how much of the feedback I got was positive, anyway. What do you mean I’m ‘being cunty’? Is that supposed to be a compliment or an insult?”
Having mysteriously risen from the dead, Kazunari drapes himself over the back of the couch and shoots its residents a peace sign. “It’s a compliment! I guess back in your time it would’ve been a mega insult to call someone a cunt—”
“I’m only four years older than you, Miyoshi.”
“—but now it’s totes a compliment! Like when people say you’re serving cunt, y’know?”
“I don’t. I don’t even have, you know, that.”
“You don’t need to have one to be serving it! It’s about your drip! Your swagger!” Kazunari waves his arm to demonstrate his point, nearly toppling off the back of the couch if it weren’t for Tasuku catching him in time. “And you were totes serving slay cunt looks with that leather jacket and stunting pose! ✩”
Sakyo scowls at the back of Kazunari’s head. “What’s with this generation and putting words I can understand separately into utterly incomprehensible sentences?”
“Alright, gramps, let’s get you to bed,” Azami announces. “Make sure to take your meds before lights out.”
“Hah?! Don’t treat me like I’m senile, brat.”
“Then maybe don’t fucking ACT like it—”
“Um!” Izumi jumps in before bloodshed can occur. “How about we take a look at who will be progressing on to round two?”
Kazunari brings up the list of round two contestants. “Ooh, looks like the first match on Side A is Itaroon versus Omimi!”
“For real?” Itaru says, glancing up from his phone. “Alright, bet. GLHF, Omi.”
Omi smiles warmly. “Let’s do our best, Itaru-san.”
“Ehh?” Sakuya exclaims when he spots the next sub-bracket. “I’m competing against Yuki-kun AND Citron-san?”
Yuki frowns. “What’s with the three-way fight? Not to mention, Ma isn’t much competition with those atrocious shorts that look like a kid barfed paint all over it, so why is the useless otaku only going up against him while I’m competing with Sakuya and Citron?”
“Same here,” Tsuzuru adds. “I’m up against Arisugawa-san and Banri, while Yukishiro-san and Takato-san’s only opponents are each other.”
“OMG, Nocturnality co-leads slay! ♪”
“I suppose it can’t be helped since we were split into five pairs on each side of the bracket,” Tsumugi says. “The moderator did randomise the pairings so it’s probably as fair as it can get.”
“LOL, I can already see the L Tsuzuru’s going to take,” Itaru says, examining the images of Banri, Homare, and Tsuzuru on full display on the TV. “Maybe not against Homare-san’s striped pants—no offence—but Banri’s probably gonna eat you up.”
Banri shrugs. “Who knows? ‘Course I’m rootin’ for myself ‘cause I haven’t made it past round two in any category yet, but I gotta admit that’s one of Tsuzuru-san’s better looks. Doesn’t look as NPC as usual.”
Tsuzuru lets out a long-suffering sigh. “Seriously, I’d rather you just called me ugly instead of whatever those backhanded compliments are supposed to be…”
Behind Tsuzuru, Citron turns to face Sakuya and Yuki with a look of determination. “I will not lose! May the best outfit avail!”
“You mean prevail,” comes the timely correction.
Sakuya offers his two opponents a beam. “Let’s have a good and fun match, Citron-san, Yuki-kun!”
———
Round Two
“You look like you’ve been sitting there the whole day.”
Kazunari looks up from where he’s multitasking on his phone, tablet, laptop, and desktop monitor. He greets Yuki with a smile, though his eyes are somewhat bloodshot. “Sure have! Been watching the polls ever since breakfast!”
“Seriously?” Yuki scoffs. “Ever considered touching grass?”
“Aww, don’t be like that! Since I lost to Saku-saku in round one I’ve been highkey rooting for him, and the three-way match between him, you, and Ronron’s been tight AF! Uh, no offence, Yukki,” Kazunari adds as a sheepish afterthought, though he compensates for it with a wink. “I’m totes rooting for ya too! ♡”
“And what about me, Kazu?” Citron demands with a dramatic huff. “Are you not giving me roots too?”
“Oh totes! Def rooting for ya too, Ronron!”
Banri snorts through a mouthful of Greek yoghurt. “How can you be rootin’ for three people in the same sub-bracket? Talk about slutty behaviour.”
Citron approaches Kazunari’s spy-like set-up—where the different sub-brackets are displayed on the different devices—and his frown deepens. “Ah… I see I am quite far behind Yuki and Sakuya. I’m not sure if there is a chance for a bareback…”
Tsuzuru chokes on his water. “A chance for a WHAT now?!”
“I think he means comeback,” Itaru supplies helpfully.
“Yes, that is it! Coming in the bareback!”
“STOP SAYING THAT I HATE THAT.”
Omi finds his match displayed on Kazunari’s laptop, and he rubs the back of his neck sheepishly. “Well, it looks like the results for the match between me and Itaru-san have pretty much been decided. Pretty hard to come back from a gap of 50 percent.”
“GG, Omi. It was fun.”
“Same here; I don’t think I’m beating Azuma-san at this rate,” Tasuku says. 
“Don’t worry, Tasuku,” Azuma replies. “I’ll carry your hopes and dreams in my heart into the next round.”
“Don’t make it sound like I’m dying like Miyoshi did yesterday.”
As the timer on the polls tick down, Banri finds himself unable to sit still. The damn percentages beside his and Tsuzuru’s names keep changing, as do the length of their respective bars (do not make a dick joke DO NOT MAKE A DICK JOKE). Leaving his empty yoghurt bowl on the table, he paces back and forth through the lounge with such intensity that Sakyo snaps at him for trying to burn a hole in the floorboards. Grudgingly, he resorts to fidgeting with a Rubik’s cube while sitting within eyeshot of Kazunari’s set-up.
“I don’t think I’ve seen Ban-chan this antsy before,” Taichi whispers to Omi and Juza. “Is he okay?”
“Dunno,” Juza mumbles through a mouthful of Omi’s freshly baked banana bread. “Maybe he had too much sugar just now.”
“Fuck off, I’m not you,” Banri snaps. “I just wanna make it to round three for ONCE, goddammit. I absolutely destroyed Tenma in round one of both the autumn and rehearsal outfits categories, only to lose to Taichi in round two. I mean, no hard feelings or anythin’ ‘cause your looks in those categories were good, I’ll give you that, but I can’t lose again when fuckin’ HYODO of all people made it to the third place showdown in the rehearsal category. His rehearsal outfit ain’t even all that, with that stupid large-ass 10 on the jacket and pants. Fuckin’ cringe shit. Kumon should’ve beat his ass in round two ‘cause at least his fit was somethin’.”
“Boo! L plus ratio plus your one-length hair is stinky!” Kumon sticks his tongue out at Banri. “I wanted Nii-chan to win even if it meant I’d lose! ‘Cause Nii-chan’s win is my win too!”
Banri ignores Kumon in favour of barrelling on with his tirade. “And imagine losing to Tsuzuru-san. No offence, man, that outfit’s actually decent, but you wear such mid shit the rest of the time it’d be embarrassin’ to lose to you here. I haven’t even had the chance to kick Hyodo’s ass yet, what the fuck.”
Citron grasps Tsuzuru’s shoulder firmly. “Tsuzuru, you must not receive Banri’s words into your heart. Do not let your chronic eldest daughter syndrome win! You must not give away a chance at victory just to keep the peace!”
“Thanks, Citron-san,” Tsuzuru says, sounding rather dead inside. “But I wasn’t going to—it’s not like I can do much about the results anyway, since we’re not allowed to vote on our own polls. Speaking of which, who did you guys vote for?”
“I voted for Omimi ‘cause controversial pants-slash-shorts solidarity! ♪” Kazunari announces, shooting Omi a wink. “If he’s gonna lose to Itaroon, I wanna help to at least close the gap even a teeny bit!”
“Mm, I’m still trying to decide,” Taichi says. “On one hand, Omi-kun’s my roommate and roommate loyalty says I should support him—”
“That’s a thing?” Azami and Yuki respond in unison, earning themselves scowls from their respective roommates.
“—but on the other hand, Itaru-san’s coat is really really cool! Lots of fans are saying he looks super handsome and chic and classy, so maybe if I wore something like that I’d become popular with the ladies too!”
Yuki sniffs. “You’d look like you’re wearing your dad’s clothes if you wore a coat that long. It only works for Mr. Desperately Needs To Touch Grass because he’s tall.”
“Ehh? B—but it’s still not too late for me to have a growth spurt, right?”
“You’re going to be 20 this year.”
“Maybe I’m just a really late bloomer?”
Having solved his Rubik’s cube for the sixth time during the span of that conversation, Banri chimes in, “I helped Sakuya pick out his jacket when we went to buy five copies of our travel outfits together, so obviously he gets my vote.”
“Mhm!” Sakuya nods vigorously. “Banri-kun’s got great taste, and he knows where to get good stuff for really affordable prices. I was struggling to choose between that jacket and another one that was kinda similar but in blue, and he chose this one ‘cause it matched my eyes and hair.”
“Banri’s got a good eye; you really look adorable in that outfit, Saku,” Azuma says, a knowing smile on his lips.
Hisoka lifts his head from his pillow called Homare’s lap and pops a marshmallow into his mouth. “Citron’s outfit looked comfy to sleep in, so I voted for him.”
“THAT was your criteria for picking the best outfit?!” Homare demands incredulously. He’s shaking with so much outrage over this insult to artistry, Hisoka nearly gets jolted off his lap. “Did you not consider the aesthetics of each individual piece, as well as the entire ensemble as a single cohesive entity? Did the combination of patterns and hues mean nothing to you? The textures and gradients? Good gracious, Hisoka-kun, I would dearly like for you to at least put a tad bit of consideration into the art form known as fashion—”
“Shut up, Arisu, I’m trying to sleep.” Hisoka smushes a cushion into Homare’s face, earning himself some muffled splutters of protest, and shifts to pass out on Itaru’s lap instead.
“I think other than Azuma-san, Banri’s got the best outfit on Side B,” Itaru says, unbothered by the sudden addition of a sleeping man on his lap. “But my desire to see the semi-finals dominated by the Spring Troupe—assuming Sakuya wins the other match on Side A too—outweighs my personal taste, so Tsuzuru got my vote.”
“You fuckin’ for real, Itaru-san?!” Banri demands, while Tsuzuru just sighs and mutters, “Is there anyone who actually likes my outfit for what it is, or am I just meant to be the butt of every NPC joke in here?”
“I—I voted for you, Tsuzuru-san!” Muku pipes up.
Tsuzuru glances at Kazunari’s laptop screen, where in real time his vote count ticks up by 1.2 percent, and turns back to Muku. “Did you already vote for me beforehand, or did you do it a second ago out of pity?”
The wilting of Muku’s head tells everyone what they need to know about that.
Five minutes left until round two ends. To increase the sense of drama, Kazunari shuts down all his devices—except his phone, which he casts to the TV and subjects them to his never-ending stock of Tiktoks. 
Having grown bored of his Rubik’s cube, Banri pads over to the kitchen to grab a drink and burn holes in the floor there instead. On the other hand, Itaru—assured of his own victory—reclines against Citron’s shoulder and continues grinding away at some event or another, while Citron makes encouraging noises at him. 
Omi, who’s already accepted his loss, joins Banri in the kitchen to prepare dinner. He figures Kazunari is probably hungry and mildly dehydrated from doing nothing but watching the polls all day, so he should prepare an easy-to-digest dinner with lots of vegetables and fibres to help get Kazunari’s bowels moving so as to avoid a repeat of the Great Kazunari Miyoshi Constipation Incident (no one likes remembering the Great Kazunari Miyoshi Constipation Incident).
Similar to Omi, Tasuku has also accepted his fate and decides to pour Azuma a victory drink in advance. The two clink their glasses together and knock back their shots.
Five, four, three, two—
One.
“It’s over!” Kazunari announces.
The sounds of a glass slamming down on the counter and house slippers meeting their rather violent end against a shelf echo through the kitchen, followed by a shout of “Hey, careful, I’m holding a knife!” But it falls on deaf ears as Banri’s socks squeak on the floorboards, and the man himself stumbles into the lounge, his eyes wide and chest heaving.
“RESULTS?!” he demands, sliding on his knees all the way to the TV—only to spectacularly fall over onto his face when he spots a K-pop fancam playing on loop. “What the fuck—where’s the polls?!”
“Hold on, Setzer, just oneeee more loop—okay, done!” Kazunari switches from the fancam to Tumblr and hits the ‘Banri vs Homare vs Tsuzuru’ link. “Oh. Uh, about that…”
Citron tackles Tsuzuru into a hug. “Many congratulations, Tsuzuru! You are moving on to the semi-finals!”
Banri freezes, unable to comprehend the 34.5 percent beside his name—and the 37.9 percent beside Tsuzuru’s. “I… I lost?”
Azami winces in pity. “If it makes you feel better, you only lost by—” He pauses and does the math on his phone calculator. “—six votes.”
Considering that Banri Settsu was singularly and objectively the most insufferable person ever when he first joined the company and is still the main source of headaches for some of its members (chiefly, Sakyo and Juza), the way his entire demeanour droops like a kicked puppy abandoned in the rain does a pretty damn good job at eliciting pity from the others. Even Juza can’t help but feel bad for him.
“I—it’s okay, Ban-chan!” Taichi says cautiously. “It was only six votes! That’s better than an absolute sweep, right?”
But Banri doesn’t seem to hear him, or even register his presence. His eyes are hollow, vacant of life, as though denying reality would make him numb to the ache of defeat buried deep in his chest like a thorn. “B—but that was one of my best looks. That, and my autumn outfit, and look what became of THAT one too. What… what is my reason for going on if I can never make it past round two in any of these categories?”
Something about those words rub Juza the wrong way. Before his brain catches up to what his body is doing, he finds himself by Banri’s side, giving his head a light swat. “Oi, don’t go givin’ up already. So what if you lost this time? There’s still five more categories. If you wanna fight me in this tournament so badly then lose the shitty attitude and face me like a man, Settsu.”
Juza’s words seem to do the trick. Like he had new life breathed into him, Banri’s eyes light up with fresh determination, and he straightens his back to sneer at his rival. “Like hell I need your useless ass tellin’ me that crap. I know that, dipshit.”
“The hell were you whinin’ about just now, then?”
“Just needed some time to process the news, that’s all, fuck off.” Taking a deep breath, Banri turns to Tsuzuru and sticks out a hand. “Congrats on the W, Tsuzuru-san. Sorry for calling your fashion sense mid just now.”
Tsuzuru accepts the handshake. “It’s fine, I’m used to it at this point.”
“Since you beat me, you’d better win the next one too, got it? I’m rootin’ for both you and Sakuya in this.”
“I’ll do my best, but…” Tsuzuru looks at the TV screen, which is currently displaying the demolition of Tasuku at Azuma’s hands with a difference of over 30 percent in their votes. “Yeah, as I thought, it’s gonna be a tough fight…”
“And Side A?” Citron prompts. “Who are the winners?”
“Well, it’s probs obvious but the first match was a total Itaroon sweep! As for the other one…” Kazunari taps on his screen. Like a bulb, his entire expression lights up, and he pulls Sakuya into a fierce bone-crushing hug. “AAAAH! SAKU-SAKUUUU!”
“K—Kazunari-san! Can’t… breathe…!”
“SAKU-SAKUUUUU!!!”
“AIR!”
With a roll of his eyes, Yuki takes Kazunari’s discarded phone and scrolls through the results. “Huh. It was a pretty close shave of two votes. Congrats on the win, Sakuya.”
What little can be seen of Sakuya’s oxygen-deprived face hidden behind Kazunari’s shoulder brightens. “I won?”
Chikage nods. “Sure did. It was a hard-earned victory; you did well.”
“Hang on…” Taichi says slowly, and everyone can practically see the gears in his head working overtime. “If the winners of round two are Azuma-san, Itaru-san, Tsuzuru-san, and Sakkun… that means both the Summer and Autumn Troupes are completely out of the running!”
“Considering the Spring Troupe hadn’t been doing too well previously—not even making top three in our troupe’s namesake category, leaving Sakuya alone to take us to the top three in the autumn category, and relying on Chigasaki of all people to take second place for us in the rehearsal category—this is quite the impressive turnaround. This means we’re pretty much guaranteed at least two spots in the top three. It just depends on who makes it…” Like a scene straight from an anime, Chikage’s glasses suddenly reflect a sinister sheen from who knows where. “…and whether it’s two out of three or three out of three spots we take.”
Awoken by the sudden influx of malevolent energy in the room, Hisoka lifts his head and levels Chikage with a frown. “Chikage. Stop giving Azuma that scary look.”
“GG, Sakuya,” Itaru says, patting Sakuya’s head. “Looks like the next round’s gonna be a father-son showdown. Dunno what’s going on over at Side B, though. GILF Swag versus Just Some Guy, I guess?”
Tsuzuru’s shoulders droop. “I’m never beating the background character allegations, am I?”
“Don’t be so disheartened, Tsuzuru, I think your outfit has plenty of charm,” Azuma says reassuringly. “Here, a drink to celebrate your hard-earned victory, and to a good and fun match tomorrow on both sides.”
Tsuzuru nods and lifts his glass, as do Sakuya with his mug of warm milk and Itaru with his phone since he doesn’t have a drink. “To a good and fun match tomorrow on both sides!”

Seeing blogs like yours make me so happy as someone who got into bleach around 2014 when the vitriol against certain bleach female characters was balls to the walls insane and loud…We were in the TRENCHES as women defenders. Queens being pit against one another…And I was a fan of both Orihime and Hinamori at the time too (two girls who were put thru the RINGER in both the narrative and fandom perception). But now I’m happy to see that things have shifted and calmed down somewhat and the fanwork has reflected that. Anyways, sorry about the rambling! I’ve read your work and thank you for stirring the Orihime resurgence in me be highlighting the depth that was already there!!
GOD yeah, as a passionate fan of orihime and momo it sure was....an experience interacting with fandom for the first time lmao. right before i got into bleach, my friend was telling me all about the story and he swore up and down that i would hate orihime, that she was the worst character in bleach etc etc and that momo was even worse than her. when i first began watching the anime, i kept waiting to feel that way and i just....didn't. in fact i ended up actually loving them a lot (especially orihime), and i'm glad i found other people who felt the same way. it's also frustrating encountering misogyny both in the work itself and in the fandom, but i've found a nice third space between the two where i can acknowledge the flaws in the character while also appreciating and acknowledging the strengths.
i've talked about this before, but the way a majority of the knb fandom is with satsuki is how i wished people could be with orihime, but there's no point in trying to control the reactions and opinions of other people so i curated my own experiences and blocked everyone else skdjfj. thank you for saying nice things about my writing, i am always here to enjoy orihime with all my heart! :D 💕
