FWB HQ Boys: In which you beat the player at his own game!

warnings: Time skip spoilers, mentions of sex(all characters are 18+), alcohol, stupid people in love

a/n: ahh I’m sorry I’ve been a little MIA!!! But I’m back with this pls enjoy ! I think the fandom really make germaphobia his only personality trait sometimes which makes me sad because I think he’s actually a quirky/classy dude and very functional in social situations,, I hate to say it but ya’ll would get played by him… sorry.

━Sakusa Kiyoomi

Some of you may be like ???? Omi fucks around ?? how ?? BUT he definitely does in his own way

He probably doesn’t do much in high school to be honest, he’s mostly focused on improving as a volleyball player and achieving his goals

Once he reaches pro level though,,, it’s a different story lmfao

I can see him being picky as hell about his hookups, but just because he’s a bit of a germaphobe doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel attraction or doesn’t have needs…

….He’s so hot too… girl

His hook-ups are always taken seriously though… like he’s the type that feels like he has a professional image to upkeep, so he always arranges things beforehand; he’s definitely not messy about it and sets clear boundaries

I think what makes him kind of a player is how standoffish he can be…and he doesn’t really give anyone a chance because he doesn’t think they what it takes to deal with his lifestyle lmao

He’s just like, its easier to call the uber right after, get into the shower, and wait until he can hear the front door of his apartment shut I’m screamingg

Sakusa also isn’t one to kiss and tell, even with the boys… he doesn’t think its tasteful and would rather not have Atsumu up his ass about his flings

ANYWAYS,, let’s get into this, so you know Atsumu through mutual friends and met during college, and the two of you just instantly clicked since you also were a part of the same sports medicine program as him

Atsumu signed with MSBY and you were so happy for him, but you were bummed because you were busy with PT graduate school and couldn’t really attend any of his games

A year passed and you found yourself texting Tsumu to see if he could meet up and grab coffee since you were on winter break!!

You: hey I’m back in town wanna grab coffee sometime?

Him: who is this

You: I see you haven’t changed ❤️

LMFAO, so you catch up with Atsumu and he talks about his new career and his teammates, he seems so happy :(( we love to see that!!

He invites you to MSBY’s game the following weekend, and you’re pumped to go!! Tsumu got you great seats, and he meets you before warmups to make sure you’re okay finding your way around

Atsumu: don’t take yer eyes off me <3

You:

He’s so…

You’re enjoying the match and you even go to grab Onigiri from Osamu’s stand, but you can’t seem to look away from number 15 on Atsumu’s team

He’s .., scrumptious to say the least 🥴

Like he’s so composed and calculated on the court, and you find it so funny how he rolls his eyes whenever Tsumu says something to him and how Tsumu gets so heated about it 💀

The match ends and you go down to meet Atsumu near the lockers, showing the security your family/friend pass 😌

You walk through the halls trying to locate the setter, but you can’t seem to figure out where he is

The only person in the hall is the tall, dark haired man that caught your eye earlier; he is already walking towards the exit with a mask covering his face, his duffel bag slung over his shoulder, sweats embroidered with “Sakusa” adorning his body we’re all looking..... respectfully

He’s truly so intimidating but you’re like….highkey lost… so you don’t really have another option

You catch up with him, poking his shoulder gently; he turns around and his attention on you is almost STARTLING.. like his eyes are SO dark

Him: can I help you

You: sir… if you don’t rail me, I’m gonna have to intervene‼️😈😹

After getting over your initial shock, you hear multiple footsteps rumbling down the hallway towards the both of you

Sakusa lets out an annoyed sigh, muttering about how he has to go, but before he can escape you hear Atsumu’s loud voice LMFAO

“OMIIII, where are you goin’? Its team karaoke night remember?”

Tsumu sees you and slings an arm around your shoulders, “Oh-? So I see you’ve met our outside hitter Omi?”

You glance over at Sakusa, his expressionless eyes glued to your face, then slowly trailing down to analyze the way Atsumu casually has you tucked under his arm

Atsumu nudges him, and he grumbles that he’ll meet them after changing at home before walking off in the direction of the private parking garage

You meet the rest of the MSBY boys in the uber, and find them super friendly and welcoming; Bokuto and Hinata buy the first round of drinks at the karaoke bar, but you only have one because you have work to finish the next day WE STAN

Atsumu already has a pink glow setting into his cheeks when you see the boys turn their attention to Sakusa walking through the front door, looking as handsome as ever in his dress pants and fitted white t shirt

They all shout out incoherent hello’s, and he takes the only open seat next to you with a glass of gin and tonic in his hand he smells so good god

You’re unsure what comes over you, but you find yourself turning towards him, and you just start asking him about himself and his career, and surprisingly he’s very polite and much more animated than you previously thought

His voice is like…so alluring and he never looks away from you when you talk, its like he’s absorbing every word

Meanwhile, Atsumu is stumbling over the stage with Bokuto belting Love by Keisha Cole LMFAOO😭

Tsumu kind of ‘warned’ you in the car ride over that Sakusa was a germaphobe, but you know that Atsumu tends to invade people’s personal space sometimes and it probably wasn’t as dramatic as he made it out to be

However, you weren’t expecting the outside hitter to lean over from his seat after checking the time on his phone, whispering in your ear, asking you if you wanted to meet him at his place later than night WHEW

Girl I would be sweating… and you say yes ofc because who’s going to pass up this type of opportunity-

He gives you a charming smile and is like,, okay cool, I’ll see you later then 😊 I’m dead

Ya’ll exchange phone numbers and he’s like if you need any help with my idiot teammates let me know before he takes off

You don’t tell Tsumu about your little… entanglement plans dsnjaknda but honestly he wouldn’t even remember based on the way he’s slumped against you in the uber he owes you big time

You get home after dropping off Tsumu at Osamu’s, and operation dick appointment with the professional volleyball player is put into action 😈

He sends an uber over to get you ladies do not settle for less please, and you’re BIG nervous but in a good way as in you know this dick is about to be bomb af

SO you’re standing in front of his apartment door, and when he opens it, he’s still in the clothes he wore to the bar and its like 1 am he’s so powerful

Um I feel like he would get straight to it honestly, probably starts with a little convo on the couch and then…

YOU WEREN’T AWARE HE WAS SO DIRTY,,, it was SO good too like after getting home that night you’re going through a crisis… like you had so much chemistry together for having just met, and you wonder if he feels the same way🥺

You caught yourself in sleepless states some nights, kept awake by the thoughts of the way his hands felt against your skin, the way his five o’clock shadow gently rubbed against your face when you kissed, and how he would hold you(only after a thorough shower together of course)

As it happens more and more, he lets you into his life little by little, and you notice and remember small facts about him and he often remembers a lot of the things you tell him about you, its really enjoyable for both of you

Its weirdly domestic to a point but that’s why its so good for both of you???it adds a bit of spice ??

Sakusa: can you come over tonight

You: sorry the retainer is in already <3 no dick sucking for me tonight <3

Him: I bought pastries from that cafe you like

You: say less✈️ I’m coming💃

AND he HAS jokes okay, like he’s funny as hell and very witty when his true self comes out; but he’s also a HUGE tease and he’ll say something completely straight-faced that someone else might take offense to like “you look ugly,” but you just know he’s kidding from being around him long enough and from seeing the little glint in his dark eyes

It becomes a routine thing while you’re home honestly, and you try your best to hide it from Atsumu because you just KNOW you would never hear the end of it; for all he knows, you met him that one time at the bar and that was that

Everything is going smoothly until you slip up at one of their games

You were sitting in the waiting area with the team (mostly talking to Atsumu), when he just says something that makes your short circuit

Atsumu: what kind of animal do ya think omi would be? An octopus maybe?

You: yeah I mean with those flexible wrists it makes sense

Atsumu: what the fawk🤠

He’s like… how do you even know about his flexible wrists IT TOOK ME 6 MONTHS TO GET TO THAT STAGE WITH HIM-

Oops, lmfao so you kind of tell him about everything and he’s literally shocked for you, mostly because he doesn’t want you to get hurt :(

Atsumu: So I see he’s just sleeping with ANYONE anyone

LMAO noo he definitely thinks you’re too good for him and he kind of lectures you, telling you that he had a hunch that he messes around with girls like that, but also you’re an adult and you can take care of yourself, and it isn’t like it’s a serious thing!!

Meanwhile, Omi is like going through a bit of a crisis all alone because everything around him reminds him of you or something you said when you were together

He got with people who were compatible sexually often, but he never had the urge to have them stay over after the deed; he usually immediately called them an uber and wouldn’t speak to them again

He found himself thinking about seeing you in the stands at his games, wishing you were there to cheer for him only, and he adored the way you respected his boundaries unlike many of his hookups

Atsumu probably notices something is off with him at practice

Atsumu: hey…if ya ever want to talk about somethin’-

Sakusa: no

Girl… he doesn’t disclose any of this to anyone

Its nearing the end of your break, and you head over to sakusa’s for probably the last time before you go back to school

You’re kind of at the point where you don’t think anything will happen and you know you shouldn’t get your hopes up, and it goes how it usually goes? Except he kind of hugs you goodbye and your heart goes: 🦋🦋🦋

You go back to school, occasionally texting Tsumu about your graduate program, and before you know it, like 5 months pass by and you’re back for summer!

Tsumu texts you and is like… sorry but I’m forcing you to be my plus-one tonight for this dinner thing I have to go to

So you dress up and he comes to pick you up, and you’re really not sure why you were surprised to see Kiyoomi sitting at the table when you arrive you give Atsumu a nice smack on the back of the head for not warning you

You sit down at the table after greeting everyone, trying your best to not act awkward when you shoot sakusa a small smile that he returns politely (but you don’t see it because of his mask)

Atsumu sits weirdly close to you the entire dinner with his arm around the back of your chair, and he’s just acting strange in general??? Like he’s bragging about your degree program and about your accomplishments, you just know he’s trying something funny; but you don’t really say anything because you don’t want to disrespect him in front of the team’s staff as a guest

You almost choke on your wine and you catch on when Bokuto starts making comments after Atsumu says something,

Atsumu: …so yeah, pretty much she should be our next president in my humble opinion

Bokuto: 🙈WOAH. WHAT?😍 HOW COULD SHE GET ANY BETTER⁉️🙄 OR HOTTER⁉️💪🏼💋

You, sitting there: 🧍‍♀️

He’s so bad at acting I’m crying..,, it becomes so obvious that they’re trying to make Kiyoomi jealous

(the boys plotted beforehand, trying to get Omi to ask you out officially; after you left, he literally would never shut up about you whenever Atsumu mentioned you, and it was just obvious he was in his feels when it came to you)

Atsumu: she’s studying at a café tonight for finals

Sakusa: Yeah so I’m glad you brought it up, because I’ve been thinking about it for days. Fine I guess I’ll say it. Her favorite coffee blend is French roast and she only likes a dash of sugar with a lot of cream, but it has to be hazelnut creamer or else she doesn’t like any-

Everyone in the gym: 🗿

LMAO ANYWAYS ITS LOWKEY WORKING you look over at him and his face is like stone.. girl..

The dinner is almost over and Atsumu gets up to go to the restroom with a wink I hate him, and you get up to catch a breath of fresh air outside

You sit on a bench for a minute, calming yourself down after the eventful dinner, but then you see the door to the restaurant swing open, Sakusa looking around the corner before spotting you

Your heart pounds in your chest as he walks over and asks if he can join you, inspecting the bench before sitting down, pulling his mask down as well

He eases into a conversation by just asking you how you’re doing, basic stuff, but then in the middle of you going off on a tangent about your stupid professor, he stops you

“I missed you.”

He crosses his legs, not looking at you as he takes your hand, intertwines it with his, and places it in his lap

You gaze at him, taken back at his confession, noticing the slight pinkness tinging his pale cheeks

You say you missed him too, and then he’s asking you if you would like to go on an actual date with him

You: wait are you asking me out officially?

Him: Yes. No I’m not. Yes I am❤️

SKSLD Please he’s awkward help him a little, you agree and then you hear a tap on the window behind you, you turn around to see Tsumu, Bokuto and Adriah behind you with big grins on their faces LMFAO 🤡

Kiyoomi rolls his eyes, but you don’t miss the small upturn of the corners of his lips as he hears Bokuto happily scream through the glass

#dont even get me started w this i dont want to look at it anymore ❤️ #JUST TAKE IT LMFAOOOO #sakusa #sakusa kiyoomi #sakusa x reader #haikyuu!! #haikyu headcanons #hq #sakusa kiyoomi x you #haikyuu x reader

i stole this

Here’s the full horse au… for now.

It’s only like bullet points but… long and messy and uh…

Here we go, help me.

Jo13 rode Deli young rider cup, Markus tam boarded at Iz tam12-13 markus 15-16 devilmare.

Markus gone 17.5 til 18Iz finds him at richies, brings home treats depression, lets mark hang out in the stables. Helps out, jo asks him for help w his chores. Markus does more stable work for iz but get bullied for lack of exp, becomes friends w jo after declining flirting.

Jo gets offered by iz to restore old stable w house for his jumping career. Jo wants markus to come with as groom, iz wont let markus go cuz stable work and depression. Eventually jo convinces to get Markus to help w restoration, building etc and once there gets markus to want to stay. Jo promises to train several horses for iz to sell, gives delight to Markus as a gift. They have a small 3horse  van w bed to live in until it’s liveable.They spend the first month doing almost all building themselves.Markus helps groundwork and warmup, jo does light to medium jumping for young horses. After stalking the farrier markus is invited to learn more about shoeing and keeping up hoof care to save money, helping the farrier out whenever he can in return.

Will meets them at a few competitions, is impressed w their discipline and markus riding style. Mostly because his own stable is every rider for themselves. Starts flirting w Markus but has to ask jo for advice, jo dislikes it but thinks they might get along so he reluctantly gives tips. Will starts showing up at shows w/o competing to help groom. Jo grudgingly accepts to give Markus chance to do the smaller starts, to finish iz contracts faster and start his flipping career. Markus is asked to do dressage starts to up their value faster.Will asks to apprentice for Markus, but is declined. Markus is jos trainer and thinks thats enough.

Once contract starts finalizing, jo wants to recruit apprentices and iz offers to give them promising horses to train for their career. All jumpers that train for jo. Markus does most groom related as well as stable chores and ground breaking youngsters. Probably two girls from iz and a guy they know from shows.

They assume Markus is just a groom and treat him as such, as long as theyre respectful about it he doesnt care. Will keeps flirting and asking to be Markus trainee, groom, stablehand anything to learn from him. Markus is flattered and smitten, and feeling lonely being the only dressage Main. Knows jo would never offer the apprentice spot to Will, but makes a deal w iz where Will gets a horse to train For Markus. Will happily accepts including all the stablework and being Markus groom, planning and driving him to shows. Jo holds clinics at local riding schools and eventually builds small huts temp stable for a riding camp. Starts his training career. Markus starts taking dressage seriously enjoying working with the horse more than just speeding through a course.Markus works in the early morning before everyone wakes up including running a mile at 4am, holds lesson for will at 6am, feeds and mucks out at 5am, rides his horses at 7am, warms up jos horses 9am to 12am, feeds horses til 13 then either works or sleeps. Everyone helps out with chores and tack except for markus stuff that Will takes care of.

They hold auditions for additional trainees at riding clubs, jo holds lessons and markus helps pick out potential candidates. One if two picked only lasts a month after treating markus as a personal groom, commentating on his lack of work ethic and laziness etc. Jo isnt very pleased after only finding out when Will tells him hes had enough of it. Jo promises Markus to stand behind him standing up for himself, though Markus doesnt want to hurt jos training reputation.They have a jumping team qualifying for nationals. Jo aims for the international jumping team. Markus has no aim but helps Will who gets major results in jumping . After a major team win they all go out for a party that iz holds for them in a club he owns. Once leaving Markus ends up getting hit by a car on the sidewalk leading to a long hospitalstay and wheelchair/cane for spine injuries.

Will takes over training markus horses while he recovers healing and depression at iz home. Once Markus gets back hes not allowed to ride or work and just train Will and Jo. Meanwhile they offer a new recruit a spot who is surprised at Markus lack of work as hes just free training Deli and doing light dressage never speaking of the crash, which no one dares bring up either.

Richie who has been seeing Markus a few times before the accident decides to sponsor their team/stable. Iz decides to give Markus more options w desk work as his assistant leading to markus doing consultant/corporate spy work. As he recovers enough to start riding Iz challenges him to get to the top of a discipline in a year and he’ll sponsor Will and Jo unconditionally. Markus finds cross country to be interesting and starts eventing. Eventually he manages to top eventing by simply entering every available event in the country w Will and Iz grooms that take his horses out for him.

Back at the stable Jo is topping the jumping w Will as a close second and the team is doing okay for amateurs. Team misunderstands markus being gone as laziness, uselessness. At the end of the season as hes returned they think hes being allowed to stay cuz hes jos friend. When one of the olympic comp shows up and starts to offer a spot on the team as a reserve everyone cheers for Jo but turns quiet when its for eventing. They finally realize Markus actually knows what hes doing and how hard he worked for the last years.

Will goes as Markus groom since Iz wont let Jo pause his career for just one reserve event. Markus has to cover for a rider and The eventing team places second. Markus and Will starts dating, markus consultant gig picks up, the press is picking up, reporter found out the promising dressage star was in the major accident. Jo gets a permanent spot on the inter team and eventually a OS spot. Markus starts schooling young horses for other people, tho people still dismiss him thinking “Jo & Markus training center” is just Jo since hes the public one.

Jo deals with the company and his jumping career while markus focuses on training and iz escapades including turning over a warehouse. Jo manages fine as his team helps and supports him but as Will focuses on his career Markus works day w horses and night for iz not sleeping until collapsing.Iz sends him off on rehab/vacation and have him hire/accept an assistant and some trainees before he is allowed to work. Grudgingly interviews a few, sticks w a math wiz w no prior horse experience but does excellent w management for both legal and illegal sides.Markus does some teaching but mostly just wanders around w a cane and is miserable. Iz builds him a small house on the property for privacy as well as two more stables, one for horses in training/riding camps and one for his projects that Markus is educating personally.

Jaime - inbetween car crash rehab and OS. Kay asks Iz for advice regarding a boy he’s met through work whos mute after a car accident and iz suggests a visit to see Markus who is sympathetic from his own experience and offers Jaime a place to stay. Jaime is mostly angsty grouchy teen but enjoys watching Markus do groundwork and starts helping out with simple things, carrying tack and lifting heavy stuff since Markus is limited. Eventually starts apprenticeship and learns how to ride and follows Markus softer approach. Learns a lot helping groom eventing horses, Iz offers him a groom spot at his stable to learn more faster when Markus focuses on jos OS. He excels and gets a collection of youngsters to care for from basics to breeders cups. Iz appreciates having a Markus around again and wants him to train more trainers for him, tho Markus doesnt really want to.

Markus wins an award at a gala based on his scores but they refuse to give it to him due to unsavory rumors ie “hoeing” “drugs” and it will jeopardize their reputation and representation rewarding someone like that. Iz tells them to stop being stupid but the room is quiet and markus leaves to avoid more embarrasment. Markus and Will start falling apart as Will thinks he’s cheating with the late nights and low sex drive. At a boring event some bigot friends of Will harasses markus in the bathroom, leaving him with concussion and a sprained arm. Some week later after tiring of the questioning from iz, jo and will, Markus snaps at them in the kitchen. They tell him to calm down and get over it. He gets pissed off and tells them he will not work with them anymore if they belive that. Again he’s told he’s overreacting. So he leaves. Tells them to fuck off and not follow him.

Markus stays with Richie while healing and follows up an old offer to work for Iz competitor/nemesis. He’s coaching a few of the jumpers and is approached by eventer Adam. They competed together at Markus OS and got along very well. Adam had gotten a few dressage lessions out of markus and a clinic with some of the other eventer OS people at Jos stable after the OS. While respectful of markus relationship Adam thought he’d made it clear he was interested but let it go. They still had contact, few lessons and autograph sessions over the years.

Now that Adam knows he left jos stable he warns him against the proposed contract, saying Markus will earn more after healing and a couple of solo wins. ‘Also how is Will?’

Markus follows his advice and gets some short training gigs before competing a few horses for a random stable. Iz tries to outoffer them but markus still goes with a smaller stable that Adam is one to represent.Adam and Markus end up flirting a lot until Adam goes down on one knee asking for a real date. Markus is very surprised and Adam is offended that his flirting skills are that bad.

Eventually markus moves in with Adam and starts competing in small scale. After Adam start talking about their future and marriage markus depression and anxiety spikes and Adam is distressed but finally understands it’s not just the competing but also their relationship. He convinces markus to voice his likes and dislikes and never pushes past what markus offers. Adam suggests markus might be asexual which markus hesitantly deals with but thinks will scare Adam away.

They meet a couples counselor who’s supportive and finds some key issues with markus fear of abandonment and his isolation with no family as well as losing jo as a close friend. Thinking he doesn’t have as much to offer Adam who is successful, rich and popular. 'my side of the aisle is empty’ etc.

After a year of a regular season Adam employs Daniel as a social media manager, as he got along with markus in the past. As Adam posts more online trying to gain public favor of his business and boyfriend he realizes what horrible rumors and hate is targeted towards markus. They still progress and in an insta story markus mentions a dream place to be the spanish riding school in austria. (Besides any place with Adam in it obviously.)

Adam takes the three of the to Vienna for 1-2 weeks to see the school, other touristy things but also as a social media event. They meet  fans and get shown the city and invited to dinners. Adam does propose to a very surprised but sobbingly happy markus. It’s not posted until months later to give markus time to process.

A riding instructor invites herself to a meeting with markus, showing him how her dressage classes has been collecting funds and signatures for hiring him for a lesson. A very flattered Markus does miss helping jo out at riding clubs so he offers to host her classes with a clinic at Adams, if they’re keen? Maybe just keep the money for buses and useful things instead. If everything works out well he will also show up the next day holding some lessons.

Everyone’s genuinely happy to meet both markus and Adam(s horses), a tour, some food/ice cream, a q&a with photos and autographs. Markus agrees to photos with him only if they won’t put them on social media which they follow, mostly it’s just with Adam & Rocket.

They are approached by a social worker who wants their help with a troubled young teen, theo who was thrown out by his father after resisting being molested. Markus is very hesitant but they offer him housing if he helps feed the horses and finishes school.

Teddy being a moody teen still warms up to them and enjoys being helpful in the stable. He helps Daniel film some markus content and offers to help with a q&a.When he reaches a question involving gay slurs and disturbing imagery they have an argument where markus means Theo should never have to deal with it and berates Daniel for failing the filter. Markus is both upset at the hate specifically directed at him as well as failing to protect the teen and stay in a depressive state for a few days.

Adam finally snaps and hides all his accounts and cancels most training and other businessdeals.Media and people are questioning why a popular and frequent mefia poster disappear and some claim there’s illness or death.Jo convinces Will to reach out as they still care for markus and want to apologize.  Adam tells them how it’s none of their business but explains a bit on how they never really supported markus when he lost chances to rumors or were literally beat up. Jo acknowledges and apologizes, offering to help in any way they can.

Markus is a bit upset that Adam is so angry on his behalf, risking his entire business and future but Adam means he’d be happier without the toxic riding organization that doesn’t do enough to stop it. In fact they fueled the problems when refusing the award because of rumors. As Adam is putting his stable up for sale evaluation he offers an interview with a small equestrian vlog studio where he says he’s tired of representing such a shitty organization and that he’ll boycott any future event including OS.

He also shows them both of his email and insta inboxes full of hatemail, scrolling randomly, bringing up some horrible examples and accusations like infidelity, pedophilia, bestiality, prostitution, drugs and more, directly addressed to or about markus only.The interviewer quietly apologizes for her first question being a “is this just another equestrian drama grab for attention."

Even as Adam only meant to make a quiet, safe and happy space for him and markus, many other riders follow suite after jo publicly boycotts OS as well. Iz and Richies companies supports the boycott as well as calling out the organization for failing to protect good values. Eventually leading to a restructuring and a formal public apology to markus and his award.

Markus is not happy being the center of attention but he realizes he’ll take the moment to encourage the young riders who came to him worried they could never compete because someone started a silly rumor about them. Media eventually stop focusing on them but keep spinning online bullying as well as how organizations can do better to protect underage riders.

Adam starts up again in small scale focusing more on competing and anti-bullying media. Markus ends up accepting more Iz projects. Jo and Will suggest doing this tvshow project they’ve been approached with. After they come to an agreement they set up ar Adams stable as there’s less trainees in the way. There’s some issues with filming rules but Daniel deals with it quickly and loudly, as he has to approve anything of Adam and Markus.('Are you just grooming for free for Adam to get laid by a popular rider’ is apparently not appropriate, who knew?)

After some stressful weeks and Spence showing up to possibly spread more rumors, though he insists Iz sent him over to support them. Adam tells everyone they’re about to just going to fuckoff for a while and snags markus out on a private picnic as he seemed worried beyond normal. Markus is reassured and when they get back Theo informs him of a very serious couple waiting for him by the gate.

They tell markus they’d prefer somewhere private and he takes them to the saddle room where he can lock the filming team out.The woman introduces herself as a representative of a different country’s OS and that they want to have him on their eventing team. Since he hasn’t competed for his country for the past years they hoped he’d be interested as their own selections dwindled from injurys, horse sales and so on. Markus is not really comprehending but offers to discuss it with Adam.

Obviously Adam is beyond happy to hear it, and suggest using Rocket or Flurry as he’s competing newer blood anyway. Goes all out cooking a big fancy dinner and everyone else is just confused. After dealing with legalities and passports markus is allowed to announce his new affiliation.

After some months he heads up to their country with Daniel, rocket and flurry to settle in at a teammates stable. Turns out most of the team is more than excited to welcome markus and they have a big party to celebrate. One of the injured riders bring up how markus helped him his last OS with a thrown shoe just minutes before their start even though they were enemies! And how markus had always been an honorary member in their eyes, saving them from a quick DQ.
