Hello!

I was wondering if fanfics for AkaKen week can be published on Wattpad, like on AO3?

Of course! We do ask that you post a copy to AO3 as well, just because that's where we have the collection, but if you can't, we'll just reblog the promo post to send people your way.

@akaken-week bonus day: third years

Them being feared at prelims/nationals.. I’m obsessed

[nightwingcas]

@akaken-week day six: soulmate au

I had such an image in my mind with this one. Them as little first years meeting at their first training camp

[nightwingcas]

@akaken-week day seven: stream

I’m sure Kenma’s fans would enjoy watching him suffer playing with Keiji (who sucks)

[nightwingcas]

@akaken-week day five: road trip / travel

This is a scene from “the brilliant days and nights” by themorninglark on ao3 https://archiveofourown.org/works/23983813. Her Twitter is also here https://mobile.twitter.com/lightveils. Please check out her writing, she has amazing AkaKen fics!

I’ve wanted to draw this scene ever since I read this incredible fic, and this was just the perfect opportunity

[nightwingcas]

@akaken-week day four: different sport au

Okay I didn’t know what to do for this prompt for so long but then I was thinking about the death note tennis game and had an epiphany

Imagine them playing doubles .. but also playing each other for practice and fun

[nightwingcas]

@akaken-week day three: swap

They’re holding each other’s animal representations! I wanted to make them more realistic though so kenma-cat doesn’t have the hair lol

Farewell, My Love

Title: Farewell, My Love Rating: Teen (Major Character Death) Pairing: Akaashi/Kenma Characters: Kenma, Akaashi Tags: Royalty AU, Prince Kenma, knight akaashi, Mentions of Blood, Fallen Kingdom, castle siege, Melancholy Ending Summary: He closed his eyes, remembering how they would hold grand balls there. Court musicians at the far end playing music that could be heard as far as the village he’d walked through. Guests from all over would come to dance, to dine, and to drink at the invitation of his father – of the king. He remembered stealing away from the dances, always unbeknownst to his parents and the suitor that they would always set him up with. Always headed to the knight’s quarters to pull Akaashi from his duties. Always the two of them pulled the courtyard – secluded and away from the bustle of the rest of the castle. It was their place, one where they could be together and not worry about being caught. Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/29312976

Day Two of @akaken-week

[kyrstin]

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Haikyuu!! Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Akaashi Keiji & Kozume Kenma Characters: Akaashi Keiji, Kozume Kenma Additional Tags: Video & Computer Games, Awkwardness, Sickfic

Akaashi recalled one of the reasons he didn’t often play video games: they gave him terrible motion sickness. He couldn’t think of a worse way for this day to go. Why would Kenma want to be friends with him when he couldn’t enjoy Kenma’s favourite activity?

[lumenera]

found me a lover who could play the bass (spent the days dreaming and the nights awake)

akaken week: day 1, music

Keep Me Crazy

Title: Keep Me Crazy Rating: General Pairings: Akaashi/Kenma, Akaashi/Bokuto/Kenma/Kuroo Characters: Akaashi, Kenma, Kuroo, Bokuto Tags: Music, domestic life, mentions of drinking, slightly drunk akaken dancing, bokuakakuroken Summary: Akaashi laughed, pulling Kenma close before dipping him. Kenma squeaked, his face flushing from the sound, and Akaashi laughed again. He pulled Kenma back up, moving with the beat of the song. They’re movements were a little clumsy, the effects of the wine making it hard to stay completely upright. They twirled and laughed, sometimes trying to sing along to the song. As the song came to an end, Akaashi dipped Kenma one last time. They were both a little out of breath, but smiling nonetheless, and he pulled Kenma back up.

Day One of @akaken-week!

[nightwingcas]

@akaken-week day one: canon compliant

This is set after the Nekoma vs Sarukawa Tech game when Kenma was really tired. So they’re watching Karasuno’s game now and he fell asleep on Keiji

The start of Akaken Week has come! We look forward to seeing your posts :)
