Warnings: Some post timeskip spoilers
Akaashi Keiji loves reading to you and his growing child. The first time it happened was a complete accident: you enjoy hearing Keiji recite poems before heading to bed, and apparently so did your baby, their first kicks shocking you and Akaashi when he finished the poem. Every night, Akaashi narrates his favorite childhood stories featuring various and incredibly animated voices. Other times he lulls both of you to sleep with a sweet sonnet he wrote himself, expressing his excitement about you and the little person he canโt wait to meet. He especially relishes placing a gentle hand and tracing small circles on your bump while he reads, a big smile never leaving his face when he feels another kick in response to his soothing voice.
Kageyama Tobio once tried balancing a volleyball on your baby bump, and when it actually remained in place, it became part of his daily routine after coming home from practice or a game. At first you chided him for doing something so silly (does this man only think about volleyball?), but now you canโt help but laugh every time this happens. When the volleyball suddenly falls off your bump because one of the babyโs kicks was quite strong, Kageyama couldnโt stop shouting, โTheyโre already a genius setter!โ He shares this information with his team. Every. Single. Day. No one has the heart to tell him that technically your babyโs kicks show more of their soccer skills than volleyball ones.
Kuroo Tetsurou likes talking to the baby bump non-stop. If heโs not telling his baby bad science jokes (he even pauses, as if waiting for a response, before continuing with the pun or knock-knock joke), then heโs asking the baby for advice on how to deal with your cravings and mood swings. Also, he canโt stop calling your baby Youth or Young one, which makes him sound like an 80-year-old. โYoung one, your mother is cranky today. Should we get her pickle juice before she whacks my โrooster headโ again?โ You whack his head anyways.
Tsukishima Kei constantly puts his headphones on your baby bump, making sure his child can listen to the greatest classics and possess an amazing taste in music prior to leaving the womb. He even has a system set in place to see if the child is receptive to a certain song or not. If there is at least one kick, the song is added to the โPlaylist for Dino Egg.โ If thereโs no kick, he skips the song and immediately takes it off his Likes on Spotify (he can already tell that his kid would make for a great music critic).
Semi Eita often sings to your baby bump, hoping the lovely melody and the soft chords from his acoustic guitar reach the ears of his tiny child. Despite being a band musician, he is only a back-up vocalist and feels quite insecure about his singing abilities. But his initial nervousness is quickly dispelled as soon as you both see that the baby canโt stop kicking whenever he sings. Semi even writes a lullaby for your child, titled after their future name. His bandmates beg for him to include the song on their upcoming album because itโs a gem, but he simply shakes his head and says itโs only for his childโs ears to hear.
Iwaizumi Hajime canโt stop touching your baby bump, his large hands already guarding his child. You canโt help but tear up whenever you see a softer side to Iwaizumi as he whispers to his child on how excited he is to introduce them to the world and show them his favorite people, places, and food, and even to teach them sports. (โIt doesnโt even have to be volleyball! And if you donโt want to play sports, thatโs fine, too! Whatever you do, youโll definitely be better at it than Shittykawa.โ) He definitely has a picture of you cradling your baby bump in his wallet.
Ushijima Wakatoshi, being the secret farmer that he is, compares the babyโs size to a vegetable or fruit, still unable to fully process how quickly his child is growing. He even places said fruit or vegetable on your belly, as if the baby can see it with x-ray vision. โIt is Week 20, you are a banana,โ heโd assert, not even realizing that he accidentally called your baby a fruit. Your favorite week? โIt is now Week 30, and you are as big as this cabbage I just harvested.โ
Kozume Kenma likes to talk to your baby bump when he is stumped on a certain video game. Although his child canโt actually provide an answer or clues (and Kenma doesnโt allow you to speak on their behalf, or โYouโll interrupt our conversation.โ), talking to his kid clears his head and suddenly he knows how to solve the game. Before departing to resume his playing, he thanks your baby for listening and softly kisses both you and your belly.
Hinata Shoyo always narrates every volleyball game he watches on TV to your baby bump (yet another man who canโt think anything beyond volleyball). However, you somewhat worry for your child considering that the baby only hears, โZOOM! BOOM! SWOOSH!โ instead of an actual commentary about the rally.
Oikawa Tooru has adopted several pet-names for your child as the baby bump continues to grow. At first he only called the baby โAlien Fetusโ or โIt,โ to which you threw a volleyball at him every time he said those words (โOUCHโI only say it out of love, Y/N-chan!โ). Now, he always coos at his baby with Spanish words heโs learned during his time in Argentina, such as โMi principito/princesita (my little prince/princess),โ โMi corazoncito (my sweetheart),โ and his favorite, โMi tesorito (my little/sweet treasure).โ You may be jealousโbut only slightly jealousโthat your child receives cuter nicknames from Oikawa than you do.
Bokuto Koutarou loves planting hundreds of kisses on your baby bump, even counting each one to teach his child, โHow to count! Heโll be a math whiz like me.โ (โAkaashi told me that you failed many of your math exams, though,โ you supply, to which Bokuto exclaims, โAGAAASSHII! That was supposed to be a secret!โ). Whenever he feels the baby kick, he lets out a, โHey hey hey, lilโ one!โ while his grin beams with so much pride.
