*peeks in* ~ Their S/O is talking passionately about their interests, but folds pretty soon, seemingly awkward and embarrassed. How does Akaashi or Noya react to it? 🥺
So cuuuuuute! Boss, you always have wonderful prompts for me <3
Don’t you let this boy see you being down on yourself for the things you enjoy!
“You don’t need to be embarrassed! When you get all passionate and excited, it’s super hot!”
He encourages you a lot to be more proud of the things that make you happy, sometimes going so far as to scold you when he catches you clamming up about your interests.
Even if he has no idea what you’re talking about he’ll still listen closely and stare at you with moony eyes while you go on about your passions. He could listen to you talk for hours.
A little more subtle than Nishinoya, Akaashi doesn’t want to directly call you out for deflecting and risk making you more embarrassed than you already seem.
“Hm? Don’t stop, I’m still listening.”
He’ll interject with a question or two in order to prompt you to keep talking, even setting down whatever he’s reading or working on to focus on you more intently.
If you apologize for rambling on he’ll shake his head and give you a wonderfully fond little smile.
“You never have to apologize, I enjoy listening to you speak. There’s no shame in having things you’re passionate about, even if they may seem silly to you.”
