Okay so hii Miffy here... I honestly don't feel very inspired to write for this blog anymore since I think I may be moving on from my anime phase.
However, I have another writing blog here which I'll be dedicating for K-Pop since it's a newer interest of mine, so if you're interested in checking it out, please go ahead.
I'll be keeping this blog up as perhaps an archive, and if I feel like writing for here in the future. Thank you to everyone who's sent me kind messages and reblogged and/or liked my work. Have a great day guys!
Whew, with all the uni prep and all that pizzazz, I think Iāll be coming back here to clear some requests from my inbox~ please look forward to seeing some!
Okay HM now that I think about it, I mightĀ make a SMAU now...
However, school is catching up to me and not gonna lie, I do keep receiving notifications from this blog (aaa it makes my heart melt :āD) and a 100 followers is surely a feat.
So... maybe to make up for all the lost time, would you guys like it if I hosted a sleepover event? I actually had an event up for some time but it flopped oof
Writers: If you enjoyed writing it, thatās enough. Writing can be an end in itself. It doesnāt have to be āgoodā by anyone elseās standards. It doesnāt have to be published or validated in any way. Delight in putting words on the page. Delight in falling down pretty rabbit holes that might not āmake senseā to others. ITāS OKAY TO WRITE JUST TO WRITE, just to have fun, just to please yourself. This is your permission slip. Go forth and create nonsense. Iām cheering for you. xo

*~*~*~*~*
Tossing and turning. Sweating and crying. Thatās how your sleep tonight went. Nightmares of the past haunt your mind and no matter how hard you close your eyes or press your head against the pillow, your painful memories wonāt fade away.
Finally, giving up on sleep, you sit up on your bed. You breathe heavily as you reach for a glass of water in your nightstand, gulping the whole glass down. As you put the glass back on the table, you grab your phone to FaceTime your boyfriend Akaashi, craving to see his handsome face for comfort.
Akaashi is a responsible man, so youāre sure heās already asleep. Youāre not sure if heās going to pick up, but hearing his voicemail at the end will be enough to comfort you. However, after four rings, he picks up with his eyes still closed.
āY/N?ā he greets in a husky just-woke-up voice, and your heart flutters. Akaashi rubs his eyes and lets out a yawn while you openly gawk at him.
āYouāre such a pretty boy, Keiji,ā you sigh dreamily, smiling through your tears.Ā
āYeah, youāre definitely Y/N,ā he says as he sits up, a faint blush appearing on his cheeks from the sudden compliment.Ā
āThe one and only,ā you chuckle, āSay, what do you think about driving to McDonaldās then watching the stars at the back of my dadās pick up truck?ā
His head turns to the clock beside him before turning back to you with a flat look. āItās three in the morning.ā
A sigh escapes your lips. āI know, I know, but whatās the harm with a little adventure? Besides, you donāt have training tomorrow, do you?ā
Normally, Akaashi wouldnāt agree to this. He cares for you so much that he wants you to have ample amount of sleep, but through the video call, he notices your wet eyelashes, your tired, droopy eyes, and the way youāre trying your best to steady your trembling voice. His chest clenches at the sight of you looking so broken, and he wants nothing but to hug your fears away.
āIāll be there in a bit,ā is the only thing he says before hanging up.
Truthfully, even if Akaashi has training tomorrow, he will not hesitate to stay up with you.Ā
After a few minutes, he finally arrives at your house. Seeing you in his hoodie takes his sleepiness away, especially when you break into a smile after seeing him. He canāt help but quicken his movements to get out of his car and the moment he reaches you, he pulls you into an embrace.Ā
āYou were having nightmares again, werenāt you?ā he murmurs into your hair as he feels your grip on him tighten.Ā
āHow did you know?ā you ask, looking up to see his sad blue eyes.Ā
āI pay attention to you,ā he answers simply, running his thumb over your tear stains before leaning down to kiss them lightly. āBesides, being teammates with Bokuto-san helps me be more attentive.ā
At the mention of his moody best friend, you canāt help but shake your head with a smile. You love their interactions, especially when your boyfriend gets annoyed with his teammate. Bokuto is older, but he acts as if heās Akaashiās son and you live for those moments.Ā
Intertwining your fingers with his, you pull him to your dadās pick up truck. Youāre about to get in the driverās seat when he steals the keys from you and pulls you to the passenger seatās side, opening the door for you.
āIāll drive,ā he narrows his eyes at you. āYour brain is hazy right now, itās dangerous.ā
You roll your eyes as Akaashi buckles your seatbelt. āIām not falling apart, Keiji.ā
Pausing for a moment, he stares right into your eyes. āYeah, youāre falling for me.ā
He slams the door shut after his bold statement, leaving you shell-shocked with your eyes wide open and your mouth slightly ajar. With a glance as he starts driving, he lets out a little smile to see you look so flustered. Itās not because heās smug about getting a reaction out of you, okay maybe a little bit, but because heās happy that you seem to forget about your pain for a short while.
Radio music plays softly in the background as Akaashi offers his hand to you without glancing at you. A smile plays on your lips as you intertwine your fingers with his, bringing it up to your lips to kiss the back of his hand as a thank you. The ride to McDonaldās is silent as Akaashi runs his thumb over the back of your hand with your intertwined fingers resting on your lap.
āThe usual?ā he asks as he pulls up to the machine taking orders.Ā
After nodding at him, he orders your go-to order, and your heart warms that he remembers. When you get your food, you munch happily on them. Akaashi drives the two of you to a cliff area where there are not many cars and people, where anyone can see the stars clearly. You feed his order as he drives and you begin to talk about anything and everything, making Akaashi feel lighter because youāre finally talking, and that means youāre feeling better.
As you guys arrive by the cliff, Akaashi asks you to stand and wait for him as he lays down a blanket at the back of the car. Your heart beats fast as you watch him settle pillows and the food, just giddy at the sight of him doing all these sweet things for you. Your feet move by itself as you walk up to him to pull him to your level and kiss him.
You feel him carry you in his arms during the kiss to put you on the back of the pick-up truck, so heās in between your legs as you melt into his lips. You pull away to look at him, to look at the stars and moon illuminating your boyfriendās handsome face with your hands cupping it.
āThank you,ā you whisper, āAnd Iām sorry for dragging you out here at three in the morning.ā
Akaashi hops to the back with you, guiding you further into the corner so he can rest your head on his shoulder and drape his arm over you as you guys lean on the window behind. You gaze up to the perfect view of stars sprinkling the sky, making the moon shine brighter, as Akaashi looks at you. To him, youāre the moon and he controls the stars, doing everything in his power to make you shine brightly.
āYou donāt have to say sorry, my love,ā he says, pressing a kiss on your temple. āI donāt care whether itās three in the morning or three in the afternoon. When youāre feeling like this, never hesitate to call me. Iāll do everything I can to make you feel better.ā
Because he really doesnāt care about the time. All he cares about is you never feeling lonely when heās right there to love and care for you, no matter what time it is.
to all the people asking hq content creators if theyāre still going to be posting content for haikyuu even though it has now officially ended- i cannot speak for other creators, but i am still planning on posting for haikyuu. i only just got into the fandom about three months ago and i still really enjoy writing for it and making such content- now, i know i probably wonāt write for haikyuu forever but i donāt think iām going to stop anytime soon? also plenty of people are getting into haikyuu with each new day, so itās not like the fandom will become completelyĀ ādeadā in a matter of days now that new official content wonāt be coming out. anyways, all this to say, although iām not going to stop writing for haikyuu anytime soon, and i know quite a few others arenāt either, please be respectful of the ones who choose not to write for the fandom anymore, okay? also letās remember to be happy for the times that haikyuu gave us instead of being sad that itās over, alright?
The anime is also still going to be coming out - season 4 hasnāt even been completely aired and who knows - we might get more seasons if the reception is good!Ā
No, I donāt mean that step you take in the pursuit of marrying someone.
I mean interaction. Messages and reblogs.
A couple months ago, there were posts circulating about how the like to ratio reblog was unfair because likes do not give writers the opportunity to be seen where reblogs do. Once enough people reblogged this or added to it, engagement went way up and the ratios were better and people were sending messages and replying to fics about how much they loved them!
Then, it seems, everyone wentĀ āI did my partā and gave up on it.
Engagement seems to be at an all-time-low; the like to reblog ratio seems to be gapped even wider now, people are hardly sending messages in, and heck people are even reading fics without even LIKING them.
I thought it was me at first and that everyone grew bored of my writing, but then my friends said they werenāt gaining much attention either or they were no longer receiving many asks. And then posts about it started popping up about how engagement was down 50%.
Why? What is so bad about reblogging a fic or replying to it? We write for ourselves, but the sweet comments and messages make it worth putting out there for people. Seeing people simply like it or pay no mind to it is very discouraging.
Here are some things you can do to help engagement go up that are barely any effort on your part and are very appreciated:
Reblog a fic if you like it. You donāt even have to say anything if you are allowing other people the chance to see it.
Send asks. Comment on your reblogs if thereās something for you to say. Reply to the post. Put things in the tags bc we go and read them!
Popular writers; if you see a fic and you enjoy it, you should reblog it. If you have a nice following, they should be seen just as much as your fics should be, especially if written by a smaller writer.
Even if all you want to do is DM someone to tell them how great their fic is, thatās wonderful!
I understand thereās some inferiority/superiority thing on here where bc someoneās writing is popular they seem intimidating, but we LOVE COMMENTS. WE LOVE ASKS. IF SOMEONE DOES NOT LIKE THESE THINGS THEN THEY ARE A JERK WHO YOU SHOULD NOT SUPPORT THE WRITING OF.
Please just tell us what youāre thinking even if itāsĀ āsdfoisjdfaslkā bc we really appreciate it and it makes us WANT to keep writing and showing our work.
The lack of interaction from people and the amount of silent readers who do no more than like is so discouraging to us and I think thatās kind of obvious across the platform, so PLEASE, do not be afraid to tell us what you think of the fic and to reblog it.
Hello, just came across your blog and was wondering if you have a masterlist? And also if you write for Daichi from Haikyuu?āŗļø
Hi there! I donāt happen to have a masterlist per se, but I do have a taglistĀ which I make sure to update accordingly. And yes, I am willing to write for our beloved Papa Crow :D (I kinda need more Haikyuu requests)
Thank you so much guyss :") I might do something for a 100 (+1) followers (and I honestly had something planned) but school just started up for me, so I'll busy myself with the asks in my inbox for now~
I might be starting up a kind of sleepover night, though? A chitchat session, what do y'all think about that? š
Hello~ I was wondering if you could write about Midorima and how he would react when his older s/o who's going to college comes to watch one of their games, even though she has tons of stuff to do with her school? (And his s/o is all supportive and fond of her younger boyfriend being so dedicated to basketball) Hope this is ok, but if not, that's fine too!! Keep up the good work š
a/n:Ā Hi Cerila! Thank you so much for your kind words <3 Iāve decided to write aĀ drabble for this, but I apologize if Shin-chan might seem a bit OOC. I was thinking about my boyfriend as I wrote this haha :ā)
The sky outside was tinted a dark blue as your bedside clock ticked away, its small hand on the number 10. You were in your dorm room, finishing a paper that was due the next day. Beside you, a small can of coffee was present; you knew that this would be a rather long night. A small night light illuminated your desk as your fingers were busy typing away on your laptop when your phone suddenly chimed with a notification. Checking to see who it was, your face lit up when you saw it was from your boyfriend.
You had been dating Midorima for over a year now, with you being a year older than him. You had just recently entered university, while he was finishing his final year at Shuutoku High, the school you had gone to as well. Despite what some students had said about you dating the younger basketball ace, you were sure that this was something Midorima had wanted. It was he who had actually gone out of his way to supply you with your lucky oha asa item every day up until the day he confessed. You unplugged your phone from its charging cable and clicked on the messenger notification.
[shin bby <3: āDid you have your oha asa item for today?ā]
You giggled a bit before typing back a response.
[āI had it with me, no worriesā]
[āArenāt you supposed to be heading home from practice?ā]
Almost instantly, a reply came in.
[shin bby <3: āThatās why Iām only texting you now, nanodayo.]
[shin bby <3: āThereās that practice match against Seirin next week.]
Your lips formed a thin line when you realized you had forgotten about the match he had mentioned before. Due to how hectic university was, you had never gotten the time to watch him at one of his matches after you graduated. Thankfully, Midorima was understanding of your circumstances, but you couldnāt help but feel your heart sink at the thought of being unable to physically support him at what he did best.
[āOh that matchā¦ā]
[āIām so sorry but I donāt think Iāll be able to make itĀ :(ā]
There was a pause on the other end when Midorima didnāt reply. You stared at the idle screen for a couple of minutes before placing your phone down and continuing to work on your paper. Was he pissed? Disappointed? A small part of you wondered if he was fed up with your lack of presence at his games. As you were starting a new paragraph, your phone chimed with a notification.
[shin bby <3: Itās okay.]
[shin bby <3: I understand how busy you are with university, nanodayo.]
A small smile graced your lips at his response. You sighed in relief before typing.
[āThank you, Shinā]
[āIāll be sure to make it up to you soon <3ā]
You shut off your laptop half an hour later after you had finished and proofread the assignment. Quickly sliding into bed, you made a mental note to definitely make it up to him soon.
---
It was the fourth quarter of the match and both schools were neck-at-neck at each other. The scoreboard flickered with a bright 92-94, with Seirin taking the lead. The match was only a few seconds away from ending before Midorima gained possession of the ball. Dribbling a bit, he dodged several blocks before shooting from the far side of the court. The score shot up to 95-94 as the whistle blared, signaling the end of the game as well as a win for Shuutoku.
As the teams were shaking each otherās hands, you went down the bleachers with a proud smile on your face. It was the first time in forever that you had seen your boyfriend play again, and you couldnāt help but feel mesmerized whenever he did so. Midorima was on one end of the court, wiping his face with his towel when you approached him with a tap on his shoulder. āHey, baby.ā
The green-haired male flinched in surprise before slipping on his glasses and blinking, making sure that he hadnāt seen a ghost. ā______ā¦?ā Takao had taken notice of your presence, snickering and giving you a quick wave before leaving you two to talk. āS-Since whenā¦?ā A hint of pink dusted the point guardās cheeks.
āSince the very beginning, Shintarou. Iām surprised you didnāt notice me cheering for you, you know,ā You giggled, wrapping your arms around his shoulders. You then felt his strong arms wrap around your torso as his head buried itself into the crook of your neck, inhaling your scent. āCongratulations on winning, by the way; I nearly forgot how good my little Shinny was at basketball~ā
āP-Please stopā¦ā Midorima muttered, more heat rising to his face. His voice was muffled by how he further buried hid his face and his grip around you tightened. You kissed his temple lovingly, running a finger through his hair; you were simply elated that you had managed to catch him at a practice match, spare the number of things you had to do at campus tomorrow. Heād never admit it either, but his heart soared at the feeling of being able to hug you post-match, just like when you were still in high school.
Perhaps youād try to make it to more of his matches next time.
