Kagehina coffee shop AU where Kags and Hina are college students but Hina is a barista and Kags is a very stressed medical student, and Kags just storms into the cafe one day and when Hina takes his order Kags screams BLACK LIKE MY SOUL, realizes what he said, then sprints out the cafe in embarrasement. The next day he comes back really late at night desperate for a coffee so he could study, and Hina just winks and hands Kags a coffee. It's very bitter and Kags gives death glare. Hina laughs.

Ehehe omg I’ve been excited to write this for a while are you ready for Tobio’s Terrible Coffee Shop Adventure?

Dead Week is literal hell.

At this point Tobio is going to pass his exams out of spite. He’s going to be in the 99th percentile, he’s going to get the best grades in this entire damn university and he’s going to do it because Dead Week is hell and he’s completely done with it. Either that or he’s going to have a mental break and commit a few murders.

Tobio stayed up way too late last night trying to cram medical jargon into his brain. He’s exhausted and has a seven am class because his bio-lab professor hates life. It’s not Tobio’s fault that he’s angry. Probably.

In order to survive graduate school every student knows that you have to consume ridiculous amounts of caffeine. With that in mind Tobio swings by Survival Cafe, Karasuno Universities most popular coffee shop that was named by some asshole that thought he was funny. Tobio isn’t amused but they also have the cheapest, strongest coffee on campus so that’s where he goes.

When Tobio opens the door he may do it a bit rougher than is strictly necessary and he may stomp to the counter looking a bit more psychotic than is usually advised but he’s had a long week.

The barista at the counter is new. He’s got orange hair that looks like it’s never seen a brush and a sickeningly cheery smile for someone working at a campus coffee shop during Dead Week at half past six in the morning. Tobio immediately hates him but that’s mostly because he’s attractive and Tobio hates attractive guys on principle. Every cute guy he’s ever met turned out to be the devil. This is just Tobio being proactive.

“What can I do you for?” the pretty guy who’s nametag reads ‘Hinata’ in messy kanji asks.

Tobio can practically feel his eye twitching. “I just want coffee.”

“Cool, cool,” Hinata says. “Latte, mocha, what?”

“Coffee,” Tobio repeats.

“Okay,” Hinata says slowly, like he’s talking to someone extremely stupid. Tobio hates this attractive barista so much. “But how do you want your coffee?”

Tobio blames Dead Week. He blames Hinata. He blames spite and his dream of being a doctor and most of all he blames Oikawa Tooru (he blames Oikawa for everything but that’s a story for another time). He blames Karasuno University for the mental break that drives him to shout, “Black like my soul, asshole!” at the top of his lungs.

There’s a moment of silence. Hinata blinks at him, other patrons blink at him, Tobio would be blinking at himself if his face wasn’t heating up faster than his ancient laptop trying to load the student portal. There’s nothing else to do, nothing to recover, so Tobio turns on his heel and runs away.

The rest of his day is the worst. Without coffee he suffers. Bio-lab is terrible, pathology is worse. The Starbucks two blocks off campus, which Tobio is forced to walk to instead of buckling down to fit more studying in, doesn’t provide him with nearly the quality that Survival Cafe usually does. Tobio muddles through somehow and then muddles through most of the next day too, not willing to risk going back to Survival Cafe.

Except that he needs to. He’s dying. Starbucks just doesn’t cut it and he can’t focus without his caffeine fix. At five pm, long after most people would give up on coffee fixing their problems, Tobio gives up on fixing his problems without coffee. Begrudgingly praying that Hinata isn’t there Tobio returns to Survival Cafe.

God hates Kageyama Tobio because Hinata stands behind the counter still looking ridiculously attractive. He actually smiles when he sees Tobio, which makes Tobio’s cheeks catch fire. He opens his mouth, maybe to apologize, maybe to ask for his coffee calmly like an adult, but Hinata beats him to it.

“I got you,” Hinata says, turning around.

Tobio stares at him. Is he being ignored? What kind of bullshit customer service is this?

“What the fuck?” Tobio asks.

He really is being ignored. Hinata continues to do something with the coffee machines and Tobio is going to blow a fuse. Before he can make an ass of himself again, though, Hinata turns around. He has a to-go cup of coffee in his hands and a proud, sparkling smile on his face.

“Here,” Hinata says, setting it down on the counter. Tobio eyes him suspiciously.

“What, is it poisoned?”

Hinata laughs. “You’re funny.”

“I’m not trying to be funny, asshole.”

“Just take the coffee.”

“I don’t want your poisoned coffee.”

“It’s on the house.”

Tobio freezes. Free coffee. That’s actually... really awesome. Sure, it could be poisoned, but it’s also free. Tobio’s just like every other student at this stupid school; in desperate need of money. 

Hesitantly, Tobio reaches out and picks up the cup of coffee. It’s warm in his hand. He sniffs it carefully. It smells like coffee, like the ability to study all night and ace his exams and follow his dreams. He weighs the pros and cons. On one hand, it could be fine and he gets free coffee to help him study. On the other hand, he could die. At least then he wouldn’t have to study anymore.

What the hell, Tobio figures, and he takes a sip.

It’s bitter. It’s so fucking bitter Tobio almost chokes on it. He drinks black coffee regularly and he’s never had coffee this bitter. What did Hinata do to it? Did he burn it?

“Just like your soul,” Hinata says, winking.

Tobio glares at Hinata as hard as he can and he hears Hinata make a quiet, high pitched noise. “I’m going to kill you.”

So headcannon that Karma can do amazing voice impersonations, so he just like stands outside a door impersonating Nagisa's voice like: "Isogai? Open the door, my hands are full." Then Isogai looks at Nagisa who is in the room with him and both of them freezes. Isogai's like "n-no Nagisa's right next to me!" Karma is trying really hard not to laugh outside. "It must be an imposter then! Isogai open the door!" And he starts pounding on it. Nagisa is terrified because he hears his own voice.

WELL THIS IS A PERFECT IDEA

Sorry! Kagehina for "your smile is not as bright as it used to be" (it sounds like a great angst prompt!)

"Your smile is not as bright as it used to be" (Game of Thrones AU)

“My prince, come by the fire,” Kageyama urged as he stoked the small blaze with a stick. He adjusted the four skinned rabbits that were hanging from the metal bar placed over the fire so that they could cook more evenly. “Are you hungry?”

“I’m no longer your prince, nor am I hungry,” snapped Hinata and further curled into himself, his new shape similar to the rock he was leaning against. “How can you eat when you saw bloodshed just a few hours ago? When I see those rabbits all I can picture is my parents’ slain bodies soaked in the pool of their own blood. And my sister…” Hinata’s voice quivered as he looked down at his hands, eyes vacant. “No matter how hard I pressed at her stomach, the blood just kept leaking out.”

Kageyama shifted towards Hinata, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. “You’ll need to keep your health and strength. It’ll be a long, dangerous journey to cross the Narrow Sea into Braavos, my prince.”

Hinata slapped his hand away. “I said,” he yelled, “stop fucking calling me your prince.” His red eyes welled up with tears and he wiped at them angrily. “You are no longer a knight. Your king, my father, was stabbed through the heart on your watch.”

Kageyama narrowed his eyes and bit out, “The king ordered me to take both you and your sister away. He was well aware of what the outcome would be when he gave me that order. I am sorry I could not reach your sister in time, that will haunt me for the rest of my life, but as long as you are breathing, I will be a knight under the oath I took to protect you.”

“You should have let me die,” Hinata mumbled as he sat up and turned his body towards Kageyama. “They are after my head. You are only putting your life in danger by being with me. Why not end it all right here, “ Hinata sang in a bitter, acidic tone.

Kageyama slapped him across the face with the back of his hand but it seemed like the slap hurt him more than it did Hinata. Kageyama’s face was pained, lips trembling with anger, sadness, and so much more. “I’d rather die than abandon you. Even though you are a naïve, selfish, pampered prince. Even though you don’t understand I’m hurting too, for your family was also mine, and seeing you in pain makes it hard to breathe. I’d rather die than see the person I love the most in the world torn from my arms.”

Hinata held his reddened cheek and dragged himself closer to Kageyama, faced pressed against his plated chest. “Please, “ he breathed out in a ragged voice, “don’t say you’ll die so lightly.” He wrapped his arms around Kageyama’s chest and buried his fingers into the softer nooks of his back plating. “If I lose you too, I—“

Kageyama brought two fingers to Hinata’s chin and tipped it upwards, bringing their lips together for a chaste kiss. He slowly pulled away, and settled his warm gaze on Hinata’s tearstained face. “My prince, my lover, my light and sun…nothing will rip us apart. So stop worrying, dummy.”

Hinata nodded, a fragile and soft smile lacing his lips. Kageyama rubbed Hinata’s bottom lip with his thumb for a few measured moments and feathered his other hand up Hinata’s jawline, around his ears, and to his temple.

“Your smile is not as bright as it used to be, “ whispered Kageyama and he tenderly ran his fingers through his precious prince’s hair. “Nor will it ever be. The horrible things you’ve seen have changed you.”

“Yet, you love me still,” Hinata replied with certainty.

“I do. I am yours and you are mine.” Kageyama pressed his lips to Hinata’s forehead, keeping them there to murmur his oath. “From this day till the end of my days.”

I have not watched or listened to Hamilton. I watched the craze go by my window though so I absorbed some of it through osmosis.
