miscellaneous headcanons.
akaashi had appendicitis in his first year of middle school. he has a scar on the side of his stomach from when his appendix was removed.
he really hates stomach pain ( because of that ) , which isn’t great because he has a hefty appetite. he gets grumpy when he eats too much and ends up hurting his stomach.
his family has a pet goldfish ( since they can’t keep animals in their apartment ) and it’s been alive for five years , which akaashi knows is normal , but he still finds it surprising how resilient the thing is.
he mends his own clothes if they’re not horribly out-of-shape. his home economics teacher loves him because he already knew how to use a sewing machine before he started the class. but he’s always thought of it as a basic life skill , so it’s not like his teacher really needed to be impressed , he thinks.
dislikes elaborate foods and drinks. he thinks they should be simple and tasty. there’s no need to dress them up or plate them perfectly when they’ll be consumed anyways.
he likes watching soccer as well as volleyball. if he had to pick another sport to watch besides volleyball , he’d pick soccer. he likes manchester united ( ha h… ).
he’s very popular among the girls from the literature club , because in japanese literature and rhetoric he always makes insightful comments. but they only ever approach him during cleaning time when bokuto isn’t around , because bokuto is … a lot … to be around.
his hair is as spiky as it is because he usually falls asleep at his desk after he showers , and his hair just dries with a bunch of bits stuck out everywhere.
favorite movies/shows are usually realistic dramas. he likes legal/crime dramas as well as government dramas and societal dramas ( i.e. the journalist , scam$ , etc. ) however , he doesn’t watch that much television , so it’s not like he has a lot of shows he can talk about.
he ends up wearing glasses post-timeskip because he didn’t realize that proofing manga makes him stare really hard at his computer screen with highly pixelated patterns and textures. he gets a lot of headaches from staring at his screen too much.
he makes miniature models. model ships , model buildings , model anythings. there’s an entire shelf in his bedroom decorated to the models he’s spent hours gluing together.
