wow i truly disappeared here huh... mayhaps i’ll archive and make a new blog. 

[courtkeeper-a]

RP STATUS.    sorry for my absence! life has gotten me bogged down. work isn’t great and i’m finally getting myself to apply to new jobs. it’s a grind. truthfully, i’m not doing very great mentally and i need to get to a better spot.

on that note, to any new followers and to current followers, my activity will be very low and limited. tumblr has started to feel like something i have to get on and that’s never what i wanted writing to become. so, i’m not going to force it and hope i can get back to a place where writing is relaxing.

if you’re looking for very active rp this may not be the blog for you, but anyone okay with me taking some time, i very much will still love having you around! ❤️

wow tu.mblr really wiped the theme i was using... as if this site couldn’t be more annoying.

[courtkeeper-a]

i literally logged on to scream that noya has not 1 but 3 older sisters. my hcs about him being an only child might be null and void now but that’s okay cause he is the BABIE. one good thing in this time.

            @courtkeeper​​  ✧  liked this for a starter.

Field trips could truly be full of unexpected events sometimes. Having set out on a mini-adventure with Nishinoya, Tobio would only later realize that such innocent, lighthearted fun included fighting bugs and exploring abandoned buildings entirely by themselves. At some point, the two got caught up chasing animals around the forest and were separated from the main group, now finding themselves searching for signs of life within one particularly eerie-looking house, clearly lost. “ I don’t think there’s anyone here who could help us… it looks abandoned. Shouldn’t we return?” He suspiciously peeks through the cracks of the windows, scanning the inside until a small spider decides to sit right in the middle of his line of sight ( which, in his defense, made it look much bigger than it actually was ), sending the poor setter toppling backwards. “ Ngh— !! ”

     Yuu doesn’t know where they’re going, only noting the trees they pass or making a pile of rocks so they can find their way back. It’s on instinct above anything else ( or maybe the time his gramps left him in the woods alone that forced him to learn his surroundings ). Seeing the abandoned house pulls at Yuu, similar to a button that says do not push. The bad idea part of his brain is drowned out by his innate curiosity.  ❝  Eh, Kageyama, it’s just a spider. Do you scare easily??  ❞

     He's about to try the door handle when the door creeks itself open.  ❝  I—didn’t touch it... It’s unlocked, I guess. Let’s go in! ❞  Yuu states rather than asks. What are the odds of a haunted abandoned house? At least there’s two of them. He gives Kageyama a tug before pushing the taller one inside with him.

                   ❛  𝙻𝙸𝙱𝙴𝚁𝙾-𝚂𝙰𝙽!  ❜  from where she had been, in the middle of the otherwise empty ice rink, kira immediately skates over to the edge where she had spotted the familiar volleyball player from karasuno  ━━━  though, admittedly, she hadn’t learned of his name when she watched the PRACTICE MATCH a few days ago. as she reached him, separated by the barrier, she leant forward on her forearms. a rare sight to see the WING SPIKER in such a good mood, but she often was on the ice. 

                     head is perched on her open palm, curiosity in violet hues as she observes him with her almost analytical gaze. ❛  ohayo, libero-san.  ❜  kira says, flashing him a bright grin. ❛  i didn’t know you skated.  ❜

     yuu finishes lacing up his skates, giving the string an extra tug. he pulls his leg up, one then the other for the extra stretch before he gets on the ice. it wasn’t much different from pulling a muscle on the court but he’d also be cold. as he’s stretching an arm across his chest he hears a voice call out. it wasn’t his name, rather his position, and he recognizes it all the same. 

     eyes light up seeing the owner of the voice. he hadn’t expected to see someone he knew at the rink, well, lightly knew. if you could count the times they’d met through aoba johsai matches.  ❝  seijoh manager-san, ohayo!  ❞  he flashes a wide grin  ❝  ya, i do! i learned as a kid, cool huh? i didn’t know you skated either!  ❞  then again, they never had time to ever talk about what they did and didn’t do.

birthday things. ❥ ┇ @courtkeeper​​  

arms wrapped around yuu, a kiss goes to his cheek. “happy birthday.”  pulling away he grabs the gift bag he had, tooru had gotten different types of fishing lures– a long with a couple of books on fishing ( tips and tricks. ) “i also booked us a table somewhere for a meal.”  

tooru leans in and gives another kiss to yuu’s cheek, “i love you..so much.” oikawa wanted to make today perfect, he wanted to give yuu a good day. tooru didn’t really get to do this type of thing much, so when he did he liked going all out.

yuu gives a big squeeze back, wide smile plastered on his face.  ❝  ya, tooru! it’s already enough that you’re here.  ❞  since he’d been traveling from place to place he hadn’t exactly planned anything for his birthday. he’d considered flying back, the weight of their long distance relationship tugging at him lately.  ❝  i missed you! how long can you stay??  ❞

soft pink dusts his cheeks hearing those words. it’s not the first time and yet it never manages to make his chest warm.  ❝  i love you, MORE! don’t you dare challenge me because it’s my birthday so that’s that.  ❞  very mature.

noya has a quarter life crisis for a whole 10 seconds all while eating cake.

     He finishes stretching his legs and hops up to his feet. He jogs in place, getting his blood going, looking around for his teammates. Most of them had already taken off, in typical fashion, the younger duo was already racing. Yuu, though one of the first to stretch, took his time, always making sure he wouldn’t strain his muscles. Shrugging, he takes off on a solo run.

     At the turn of the corner, he skids to a stop, digging his shoes into the dirt. He narrowly misses running into another.  ❝  Ah, sorry for almost running ya over. Oh — Akiyama! You’re here.  ❞  Duh, idiot, it’s Nekoma High, her school, of course she’s here. He laughs at himself.  ❝  I mean, it’s good to see you!  ❞

     Yuu hops up from the floor, shoes successfully swapped out. He slips his athletic bag over his shoulder and turns to the other. He whips out an arm to slap them on the back a few times.  ❝  Oi—what’re you doing this weekend?? Do ya wanna hang out? I wanna go Halloween shoppin’!  ❞  Just the thought of spooky decorations and candy has the libero bouncing on his toes.

Knuckles rap on the door.  ❝  Asahi-san! Open up!!  ❞  He does his best to yell quietly.  ❝  Wake up! It’s Yuu!  ❞  He says as if someone wouldn’t be sleeping at—he glances at his watch—2 am. Since climbing through the window was no longer acceptable ( because someone said it was dangerous the one time he tried ) he has to use the door. Yuu knocks again, so he isn’t tempted to pick the lock.

He shifts from foot to foot, one hand gripping the flight tickets in his jacket pocket. Does he remember the trip? Does he want to go? What if he’s busy? Did I remember toothpaste? Each passing minute adds another question to his racing mind. They’d planned it years ago, if anyone would’ve forgotten it would’ve been Yuu. Except, he didn't. He was here, with tickets and a suitcase, staring a hole into the door because he forgot to call Asahi to see if he was even home or give a heads up. Welp.

Yuu grumbles something like stupid under his breath as he pulls out his phone. He’s about to hit his favorites when the door opens.  ❝  Asahi-san—finally!  ❞

         IT’S ONE OF THE FEW TIMES someone comments that kageyama’s moved past being the king. his chest swells with emotions he can’t name. ❝ thank you, senpai. ❞ kageyama tries to hide how his voice tightens. the boy laughs to cover it up. ❝ yeah, you can kick me all you want. hopefully, it doesn’t come down to another wake up call. ❞ nishinoya’s had first-hand experience with kageyama’s king days. nishinoya offered friendship && support even when kageyama was almost impossible to be around.

        ❝ okay !! ❞ kageyama watches as nishinoya starts going through the runs. given nishinoya’s accumulated experience, && high adaptability, he’s catching on quickly. kageyama gives some pointers along the way. also letting nishinoya know how to be safe, so that he doesn’t risk injury while setting. ❝ we say the same about your amazing receiving skills. you saved the ball countless times, especially during that game. ❞ ever since they first met, nishinoya’s only gotten better. it’s inspires kageyama to keep improving. he’s about to say something, but stops when a faculty member peers into the gym, letting the boys know they need to leave for the day. ❝ ah– wanna continue tomorrow ?? ❞

     ❝  Eh, we’re young and dumb, it could happen, y’know. But! I think it’d be hard to lose this team. I got your back — we all do.  ❞  The team had become like a family, each of them admitting their flaws, their weaknesses, their low points, and still continuously showing support. Now, the time when he considered not returning seemed long in the past.  ❝  Unless you do something really stupid, then no promises.  ❞  Although he’s teasing, he’d gladly call Kageyama out if it ever came to that, just as he respects anyone would call him out, too. Yuu knows he’s anything but perfect. Where’s the fun in that anyway?

     Nishinoya nods with each tip Kageyama shares, taking in the information like a sponge...maybe a partially dry sponge. He always does better in the action rather than watching the action, but there’s still plenty to learn from it.  ❝  I missed a lot too. It was an awesome game though!  ❞  He always points out his mistakes, never to sound negative, but rather finding things he can improve.  ❝  Tomorrow’s Saturday, you sure you want to??  ❞

     Yuu returns the volleyballs to storage before he plops down to switch his shoes.  ❝  Are you hungry?? I know boba was the plan, but I’m thinking we grab some food, too? Unless you gotta get home!  ❞

     The libero dumps a handful of balls back into the cart. Shoes squeak across the court as everyone bustles to clean up. A small yawn falls from his lips, adrenaline draining with the end of practice. He gives his cheeks a few slaps ( as if that’s ever helped anyone wake up before ). It’s rare for him to lose his energy this early in the evening, but he can’t deny the heavy weight to his muscles.

     Tired goodbye’s echo the gym as Yuu’s switching out of his shoes. He's barely outside when a noise draws his attention back. He pops in his head back in, squinting into the dark gym. There’s a vague figure and if there’s one person to be smaller than him, he could easily guess who’s left.

     ❝  Ah, Yachi! What’re you still doing here?? You’re gonna get locked in!  ❞
