“You know, I didn’t spend money on a train to Tokyo just to deal with your nonsense.”
Tsukishima stood by the entrance to Akaashi’s living room, staring at the large pillow and blanket fort that Kuroo and Bokuto were currently snuggled under, one cat laying elegantly on top of the blanket spread out above them.
Akaashi merely shrugged beside him, making his way into his living room, ducking down into the fort and taking a seat on Bokuto’s back, said person not even batting an eye at the sudden weight.
“This is actually pretty tame for them. I didn’t let them drag down my mattress this time.”
Bokuto lifted his head up from where it rested against Kuroo’s butt, beaming over at Tsukishima.
“Hey hey hey KeiKei!”
Kuroo lifted a hand up, his face currently pressed into an assortment of pillows.
“Ey mnnshmnn!”
Tsukishima sighed, setting his bag down in a corner and taking a seat on the couch.
Akaashi immediately whipped his head around, eyes narrowing at Tsukishima and pointing at an empty space in the fort beside him.
Tsukishima narrowed his own eyes, shaking his head slowly.
“Kei.”
“Keiji.”
”Kei.”
”Keiji.”
“Koutarou!”
“Tesumouw!”
“Meow~”
They all paused, Kuroo being the first to break it as he started laughing into his pillows, Bokuto not far behind.
Akaashi only grinned in amusement, Tsukishima rolling his eyes at all of them.
Sighing, Tsukishima reluctantly got up from his seat, making his way to the fort and sliding into the empty space next to Akaashi, looking down at the mess of hair that rested just in front of his legs.
“How are you even able to breathe?”
Kuroo started mumbling into his pillows, Tsukishima immediately sighing and tuning him out. He couldn’t make any sense of what Kuroo was saying anyways.
“So what are we going to watch?”
Kuroo stopped in his mumbling, letting out a noise of offense at being brushed off, but Tsukishima just ignored him.
“You can pick the first movie KeiKei! All of Akaashi’s movies are over in those shelves.”
Tsukishima got up, pleased to be able to pick what they watched first. He quickly scanned through his options, gaze immediately locking onto one of his favorites. Snatching it off the shelf, Tsukishima went ahead and put the disc into Akaashi’s dvd system, sitting back in his previous spot next to Akaashi.
Akaashi lazily grabbed the controller, skipping all the commercials and raising an eyebrow when he landed on the movies menu.
“Jurassic park?”
Kuroo finally lifted his head up, turning to look at the screen and grinning.
“Good choice Moonshine!”
“Yeah KeiKei!”
Tsukishima huffed, grabbing one of Kuroo’s pillows and ignoring his complaints at the theft, hugging it to his chest.
“Hey Moonshine! Can I lay my head on your lap? It’ll let me see the tv better.”
“No.”
“Aw! C’mon Kei!”
“No.”
“Pleeeaaase?”
Tsukishima sighed, chewing on his lower lip and grabbing another pillow, pressing it into his lap and looking back at the tv, ignoring Kuroo’s delighted expression.
Kuroo rushed to drop his head onto Tsukishima’s lap, shuffling around until he could look at the screen and laughing when Bokuto whined about his pillow being taken away from him.
“Miss my ass already Bo?”
“It was comfy! Give it back!”
“Can you guys stop being gross I’m trying to--”
“KeiKei! But you don’t get it it was like really squishy and--”
“Bokuto-san that isn’t something you need to--”
“Thanks Bo! Yours is pretty nice t--”
“Shut up and let me watch the Apatosaurus!”
--------------------
The night ended up turning into a Jurassic park movie marathon, pleasing Tsukishima immensely.
No one had planned to stay up for 4 movies, so by the time jurassic world came to an end, they were all sprawled in their blanket fort, on the verge of falling asleep.
Tsukishima groaned, rolling away from where he somehow ended up resting against Bokuto’s stomach.
Bokuto moaned in complaint, blindly reaching out and grabbing ahold of Tsukishima by his shirt, tugging him down to rest on the blanket right beside him.
“KeiKei, noooo. Stay. Sleep. Ugh.”
Tsukishima rubbed at his eyes, smacking Bokuto’s hand away and groaning.
“I wanna change, and if you think I’m sleeping in a pile with you guys here in the living room y’got another thing coming.”
Akaashi poked his head out from behind Bokuto, gazing sleepily at Tsukishima.
“You can sleep on my bed with me. These two can sleep on the floor.”
Kuroo released a noise of complaint from behind Tsukishima, rolling closer until his side was pressed against him.
“Akaashi, that’s not fair! Let all of us sleep on your bed!”
“No, it’ll break.”
“Lies and slander. We’ve fit before.”
“That was with three, not four. You and Bokuto-san are sleeping on the floor.”
“I object!”
“Over ruled.”
Kuroo and Bokuto whined together, making Akaashi and Tsukishima roll their eyes.
“Akaasshhiiii! Then let’s all sleep here in the fort!”
Tsukishima grimaced, chucking a pillow at Bokuto.
“Why would I sleep here when I can share a bed with Keiji?”
Bokuto kept quiet, clicking his tongue as he thought.
“Uh...cuz you get to sleep with all of us? Big cuddle pile. Or no cuddle pile if you don’t wanna cuddle.”
“I’ll cuddle with you bro!”
“Kuroooo!”
Tsukishima grimaced, grabbing one of the pillows closest to him and stuffing it under his head, sighing in defeat.
“Whatever. Arguing with you guys is too much work.”
Bokuto let out an excited hoot, squirming closer to Tsukishima but quickly pausing.
“Eh--KeiKei?”
“Hm?”
“Can I cuddle you?”
Tsukishima thought about it, ignoring how all three of his soulmates were staring at him, waiting for an answer.
“...Just don’t suffocate me. Um. You can...hold my hand? And...little touches.”
Bokuto immediately beamed, nodding his head vigorously and reaching out to link his fingers with Tsukishima’s, Akaashi reaching around Bokuto’s waist and letting his hand rest against Tsukishima’s wrist. Kuroo stretched his arm out, letting it rest around Tsukishima’s hip while making sure his front didn’t touch Tsukishima’s back.
“Kei, is this okay?”
Tsukishima hesitated, his muscles tense as he processed the position he was in.
“I...um, yeah? Yes. I’m fine. Just...gimme a moment.”
Okay. Bokuto was holding his hand. Akaashi’s hand was against his wrist. And Kuroo’s hand was around his hip. This was...okay. It wasn’t...overwhelming. None of them were pressed against him or anything so...yeah. Tsukishima was okay.
Letting out a sigh, Tsukishima finally relaxed himself, closing his eyes and resting comfortably against his pillow.
“I’m okay.”
Tsukishima didn’t see, but Akaashi, Bokuto and Kuroo all smiled at him fondly.
--------------------
Akaashi was the first to wake up the next afternoon. Not because he wanted to, no, because Kuro decided to be a little shit and jump onto his face.
Akaashi swatted Kuro away, groaning at the sunlight the day brought and refusing to open his eyes. Kuro meowed angrily by Akaashi’s ear, beginning to smack at Akaashi’s cheek impatiently with his paw, pulling back and looking completely innocent when Akaashi finally cracked his eyes open to look at his cat.
“Kuro…”
“Mew?”
Akaashi sighed, leaning up on his elbows and squinting at his living room, gaze slowly moving to stare at the three that were still sleeping beside him.
His lips tugged up into a smile almost immediately.
Tsukishima was almost completely enveloped between Bokuto and Kuroo. His head was tucked against Bokuto’s neck while Bokuto had his face pressed against Tsukishima’s hair. Bokuto’s arm was wrapped around Tsukishima’s waist, hand resting against Kuroo’s back, and a leg was wedged between Tsukishima’s, his foot locked around Kuroo’s ankle. Kuroo had an arm wrapped around Tsukishima’s hip, his side pressed completely against Tsukishima’s back, one side of his face pressed against the back of Tsukishima’s neck while the other side had a pillow pressed against it.
It was an adorable sight.
Akaashi looked around for his phone, opening up the camera app as soon as he found it and snapping a picture of the three of them, smiling as he set it up as his background.
Well, he might as well start making breakfast.
--------------------
“Akaashi! Why?!”
Akaashi looked away, stiffly moving around and pouring Kuro his food, setting it down on the floor for the impatient cat to eat.
“I...thought I could do it this time.”
Kuroo huffed, staring down at the charred rock that was supposed to be a pancake.
“Please just leave the cooking to me.”
Akaashi huffed, petting Kuro as he ate his food.
“Fine.”
Bokuto was laughing against the kitchen’s counter, Tsukishima snickering behind his hand as he looked at the destruction that Akaashi had created.
Honestly, it was a bit of a shock when he woke up to the smell of food burning. Tsukishima had originally thought it was Bokuto, or even Kuroo. But no, they had been sleeping beside him, jerked awake just as he was by the fire alarms going off throughout the house.
Tsukishima did not think that Akaashi would be the terrible cook out of the four of them. But, well, he wasn’t much better. He still burned eggs. Akaashi though was still on a completely different level of terribleness.
Tsukishima walked over to a discarded muffin pan, peeking into its contents and wrinkling his nose.
“Keiji? What is this supposed to be? It’s...bubbling. And it’s purple.”
“I was trying to make muffins.”
“I don’t think the batter is supposed to bubble like this before you even put it into the oven.”
“No that...just came out of the oven. It was in there for an hour.”
Tsukishima moved away from the pan, clearing his throat and taking a seat at the kitchen table.
Kuroo sighed from where he stood, glancing around at the kitchen.
“...So I vote we eat out and clean this up later. When we’re more awake.”
Bokuto perked up at the mention of eating out, turning and darting to the front door.
“I wanna eat at the bakery around the corner!”
Akaashi followed after Bokuto, muttering something about coffee.
Kuroo snorted, looking around and grabbing his wallet, motioning for Tsukishima to get up.
“Come on Moonshine! Time to introduce you to the best bakery in Tokyo!”
Tsukishima got up from his seat, raising an eyebrow.
“I think it would be arguable to call it the best bakery in Tokyo if it’s just around the corner.”
“Hush Kei! Just wait till you try it! You won’t want anything else ever!”
--------------------
“Holy shit.”
“I told you Moo--OW! Akaashi?!”
“Kuroo-san, you’re not supposed to say that name in public remember?”
“Oh, right. Sorry Kei.”
Tsukishima narrowed his eyes, shoving another forkful of strawberry cake into his mouth.
Bokuto laughed beside him, pointing at Kuroo with his melon bread.
“You mooed like a cow Kuroo!”
Kuroo stuck his tongue out at Bokuto, turning to Tsukishima and raising an eyebrow.
“Should you really be eating cake as breakfast Kei?”
“How about you don’t judge my choice in food and I don’t judge your choice in wearing those shorts with that shirt.”
Kuroo lifted a hand up to his chest in offense, leaning into Akaashi with a drawn out gasp.
“How dare--”
“And those sandals.”
“Wha--Akaashi! Not you too!”
“Don’t worry bro! At least your legs look amazing!”
“Bokuto, I love you so much right now man.”
--------------------
[Me]: Moonshiiinne, come baaaack!
[Moonshine]: Is this going to be a regular thing? You texting me every time I JUST leave?
[HOOTarou]: It’s cuz we miss you the second you leave KeiKei!
[Moonshine]: Apparently.
[Moonshine]: We still have another training camp meeting. You can be patient.
[Me]: It’s too far away Moonshine! We want you back in our arms!
[sOWLmate]: Oh, speaking of which

[Me]: Holy shit we look adorable!
[Moonshine]: DELETE IT

[sOWLmate]: No
[Me]: No!
[HOOTarou]: I REFUSE
[Moonshine]: Ugh. Please never show it to anyone. Ever. In our lives.
[Me]: Deal!
[sOWLmate]: Wasn’t planning on it.
[HOOTarou]: Okay!
[Moonshine]: You all give me headaches.
--------------------
“Hey Tsukki what are you looking a--is that you? Is that Bokuto-san and Kuroo-san?!”
Tsukishima flailed, tossing his phone across his room and slowly turning to Yamaguchi, glare in place.
“...................”
“...................”
“...Shut up Yamaguchi.”
Yamaguchi pursed his lips together, fighting not to laugh.
“S-sorry Tsukki!”
Tsukishima huffed, moving across his room to get his phone, shutting it down and hiding the picture that Akaashi had sent a few hours earlier.
Since when had Yamaguchi’s footsteps gotten so quiet anyways?
--------------------
[Me]: KeiKeeiiiiiii why do you need to live in Miyagi!
[KEIKEI]: Um. Because I live here.
[Me]: Come live in Tokyo! Come to Fukurodani!
[Purroo]: No way! Come to Nekoma!
[KEIKEI]: If I were to move to Tokyo I’d go to neither.
[Me]: What?! Then where would you go?!
[KEIKEI]: Anywhere you two aren’t?
[Me]: Butbut Akaashi is at Fukurodani!
[Purroo]: That’s dirty Bo, pulling the Akaashi card
[Me]: All’s fair in KeiKei and war.
[KEIKEI]: I’d be happy to watch you two fight to the death. Fukurodani is still out because you go there. Sorry Keiji.
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Understandable.
[Me]: Akaashi you’re supposed to help me win KeiKei over!
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Impossible.
[KEIKEI]: Maybe Nohebi.
[Me]: Oooooooooooooooooooooo
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Here we go.
[KEIKEI]: What?
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Wait.
[Purroo]: Tsukishima Kei don’t you ever dare step foot onto Nohebi territory I swear to all that is holy you will REGRET IT they’re ROTTEN and play dirty especially DAISHOU that bastard I swear everytime I see that guy I just wanna smash his face in do not Kei DO NOT
[KEIKEI]: Wow
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Kuroo doesn’t like Nohebi
[Purroo]: UGH. HATE.
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Yes, yes. Whatever you say.
[Me]: Don’t worry Kuroo! You can beat up those snakes any time!
[Purroo]: DAMN RIGHT I CAN
[KeiKei]: Lucky for you I’m not moving anyways.
[Me]: Aaaawwww but KeiKei!
[KeiKei]: No
--------------------
“You’re an idiot.”
Kuroo squawked in offense from where he sat on the floor, clutching at his leg while Akaashi tried to stop his knee from bleeding.
“Well, Kei is kind of right.”
“Akaashi!”
Tsukishima rolled his eyes, standing beside a fidgeting Bokuto.
“ I don’t get why you refuse to wear knee pads. This bloody mess wouldn’t have happened if you were wearing them you know.”
“I don’t like them! They restrict my movement!”
“You’re constantly receiving and diving for balls! You should be wearing them!”
“Don’t like ‘em!”
Tsukishima pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing.
“Whatever. We should get you to the coaches or managers so they can patch you up.”
Kuroo looked down at his bloody knee, humming in ascent and moving to stand up, immediately hissing at the sudden pang of pain that went through him at the small movement.
Shit.
Kuroo groaned, reaching an arm up towards Bokuto who immediately reacted, ducking down so Kuroo could wrap his arm around his neck.
Bokuto stood up, pulling Kuroo with him and easily taking some of his weight.
“You okay bro?”
“Yeah, yeah. I’ll be fine. Probably won’t be able to play for a few days though.”
“Don’t worry Kuroo! I’ll play TWICE as hard during the camp just for you!”
Kuroo looked over at Bokuto, goofy smile plastered on his face.
“Aw, bro, you really know how to make my heart skip a beat.”
Bokuto laughed, leaning over to press a quick kiss to Kuroo’s lips.
“You know it bro!”
Tsukishima wrinkled his nose at them.
“Can you guys stop with the PDA and start walking? Kuroo’s knee is bleeding all over his leg. It looks disgusting.”
Kuroo whined, taking careful steps forward with Bokuto’s help.
“Kei! Show some sympathy for me! I’m in pain!”
“You’ll get enough sympathy from Bokuto.”
“This is true but getting even more sympathy from you and Akaashi would be nice.”
“Nah.”
--------------------
“So! Turns out I sprained my knee and won’t really be able to do anything for like 3 weeks and Nekomata-sensei is demanding that I go home and rest since he thinks I won’t rest if I stay here which is RIDICULOUS i can literally just sit and watch.”
Kuroo sat on a bench, pouting up at his soulmates and seemingly demanding sympathy.
Tsukishima was the first to say anything.
“Oh thank god. I can have some peace.”
“Mmm, we still have Bokuto.”
“Damn.”
“Hey!”
“Show me some sympathy dammit!”
Bokuto plopped down on the bench next to Kuroo, wrapping an arm around his boyfriend and snuggling him close.
“Don’t worry Kuroo! I’ll go visit you every day and I’ll even drag Akaashi and KeiKei with me!”
“No.”
“No Bokuto-san. By the time we finish practice it’s too late to go that far.”
Kuroo whined, plopping his head down on Bokuto’s shoulder and frowning.
“You guys are so mean to me it’s not fair.”
Akaashi rolled his eyes, ducking down and brushing his lips against Kuroo’s, staring in amusement as Kuroo’s cheeks started to turn pink.
“You know I love you, don’t be so dramatic.”
Tsukishima shrugged behind Akaashi.
“You’re okay. I guess.”
Kuroo clutched at his heart, sniffing as his eyes started to water.
“That’s the nicest thing Kei’s ever said to me. Bokuto! He says I’m okay!”
Tsukishima rolled his eyes, turning around to head back to his team.
“I take it back, you’re not okay. You’re terrible.”
“No take back’s Kei!”
--------------------
[Me]: Guuuyyysssss I miss yooouuuuu
[Me]: Can’t believe I’m missing Kei’s visit
[Me]: This isn’t fair
[Me]: I should go back to school
[Me]: Let Nekomata-sensei lecture me
[Me]: He’d let me stay anyways
[Me]: I can walk
[Me]: Okay nevermind I can’t walk
[Me]: Help I’ve fallen and I can’t get up
[Me]: Cats are keeping me company on the floor I’m a-o-Kei
[Me]: SIGH
[Me]: So bored
[Me]: On the floor
[Me]: I can probably crawl
[Me]: I am now on the couch my lovlies no need for concern
[Me]: SO BORED
[Me]: Is practice really this long

[Me]: Ugh
[Me]: I feel terrible
[Moonshine]: Tetsurou what the fuck
[sOWLmate]: Are you alright?
[HOOTarou]: BRO U OKAY???
[HOOTarou]: KUROO?
[Incoming call: HOOTarou]
[Missed call: HOOTarou]
[sOWLmate]: Kuroo we’re coming over
--------------------
Kuroo woke up groggily to the sound of someone pounding against his front door.
Sitting up, Kuroo squinted at the darkened room, groaning as he carefully eased his legs off the couch, sleepily stumbling onto his feet and wincing as his knee pain started up again.
“Kuroo?! Kuroo! You there?! You okay?! Kuroooo!”
Kuroo got more alert, frowning at Bokuto’s voice and the concern laced in it. What the hell?
Kuroo shuffled his way over to the door, mostly balancing himself on one leg as he unlocked the door and threw it open.
“Guys? What’s wrong it’s la--Ack!”
All the breath in Kuroo’s lungs escaped him in one big whoosh when Bokuto lunged himself at him, wrapping his arms around Kuroo’s waist tightly and squeezing like his life depended on it.
“Kuroo you’re okay!”
Kuroo only groaned in reply, slapping at Bokuto’s arms and sucking in a deep breath when Bokuto stopped squeezing Kuroo so tightly, instead lowering his arms towrap around Kuroo’s hips, locking his hands under Kuroo’s ass and holding him up from there, refusing to set him down.
“Guys what the hell? You should be at the school!”
Akaashi glared up at Kuroo, bringing his phone out of his pocket and showing it to Kuroo.
“You idiot, we were worried about you! We texted and Bokuto called but you never answered so we thought you did something stupid!”
Kuroo let out a soft ‘oh’, wrapping his arms around Bokuto’s neck and hugging him loosely.
“My bad guys, I fell asleep. I’m really sorry, I didn’t mean to worry you.”
Tsukishima huffed from behind Akaashi.
“I told them that you’d be fine.”
“Kei, you were just as worried as we were.”
“You worried about me Kei? You do care!”
“Yeah bro KeiKei kept asking if you had replied and stuff even though he kept checking his own phone like every 30 seconds!”
“Aaawwww Keeiiiii.”
“Ugh, shut up! Can we go now, Tetsurou is fine. We can go back. We left without permission. We can say it’s all Tetsurou’s fault.”
“Hey! It was not! You guys came here on your own! You over-reacted, that’s not on me!”
“Of course it is! Your messages would make ANYONE worried!”
“Ohohoho so you admit you were worri--”
“Shut up!”
--------------------
[Me]: KeiKei! You should visit us this weekend!
[KEIKEI]: Ugh
[Purroo]: Keeiii come oonnnn keep me and my fucked up knee company for the weekend
[KEIKEI]: It’s so far
[Me]: KeeeiiiiKeeeeiiiiii pleeaaassseeeee
[KEIKEI]: So far
[Me]: PLEEAAASSSEEEEEEE
[KEIKEI]: Far
[Me]: KEI
[Purroo]: Kei!
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Guys, don’t force him. Though I do want you to come over as well Kei, we won’t be able to see you for a while after this upcoming week after all.
[KEIKEI]: Okay I’ll go
[Me]: HOOTHOOT
[Purroo]: Akaashi, the secret weapon.
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Hush
--------------------
“Kei, is it alright if I lean against you?”
Tsukishima blinked, turning to glance over at Akaashi from where they sat under yet another fort, this time with the addition of Akaashi’s mattress. Akaashi had allowed it only because Kuroo actually was injured this time.
“Um...yeah, sure.”
Akaashi immediately slid up to Tsukishima, grabbing his arm and sliding it around himself as he snuggled up against Tsukishima’s side.
Tsukishima furrowed his eyebrows.
“This is more than just leaning.”
“Is it okay?”
“.....We’ll see.”
Akaashi took that as the yes it was, relaxing against Tsukishima and staring up at the tv, ignoring the burning stares coming from Kuroo and Bokuto.
“Hey hey hey KeiKe--”
“No”
“I didn’t even say anything ye--”
“No. I already have Keiji snuggling me I don’t need another one of you.”
Bokuto pouted where he sat, his gaze never wavering away from Tsukishima.
It took a few minutes, but Tsukishima eventually cracked under the intense stare.
“...After Keiji.”
Bokuto let out a happy hoot, whipping his head back to stare at the tv, seemingly satisfied.
“Heeyyy Moonshi--”
“After Koutarou.”
Kuroo grinned, pleased.
Akaashi remained silent, his lips twitching a up bit, but he forced his oncoming smirk away.
Too bad Bokuto and Kuroo didn’t know that Akaashi wasn’t planning on moving for the rest of the night.
--------------------
“Akaaaasshhhiiiiii! It’s our turn! You haven’t moved in, like, 3 hours!”
Akaashi merely shrugged, reaching out to the bowl of popcorn placed on Tsukishima’s lap.
“I’m comfortable.”
“Well get comfortable somewhere else! I wanna snuggle KeiKei!”
“Yeah! What Bo said!”
“You’re injured Kuroo-san. The injured don’t snuggle.”
“Lies and slander! Injured people get all the snuggles!”
“Then snuggle Bokuto-san cuz I’m not moving.”
“But--”
“Akaaaash--”
“God, just--ugh!”
Tsukishima moved away from Akaashi, ignoring Akaashi’s immediate protests in favor of grabbing Bokuto and shoving him down on the mattress. He reached out and grabbed Akaashi, pushing down down to rest his head against Bokuto’s chest and letting himself flop down with his head against Bokuto’s stomach. He motioned for Kuroo to get closer, tugging him down once he was close enough to rest his head against Tsukishima’s stomach.
Tsukishima sighed, blindly reaching out to grab a pillow and bringing it up to cover his face, mumbling a goodnight through the pillow and then going silent.
Bokuto, Akaashi and Kuroo all looked at each other in bewilderment. They couldn’t argue with Tsukishima’s solution though, they were all weirdly comfortable where they were.
Laughing, Bokuto laid an arm across Akaashi’s chest, threading his fingers into Kuroo’s hair, his other hand reaching out to thread through Tsukishima’s.
“G’night KeiKei!”
Akaashi smiled, wrapping his arm around Bokuto’s and tilting his head forward until his forehead bumped against Tsukishima’s shoulder.
“Good night Kei.”
Kuroo snickered, shifting onto his side and nuzzling his cheek against Tsukishima’s clothed stomach, reaching out and enveloping Tsukishima’s free hand with his own.
“Good night Moonshine.”
Tsukishima said nothing, keeping a pillow pressed up to his face with one arm and only slightly squeezing Kuroo’s hand.
This was okay.
--------------------
[Me]: Good luck on your matches today Kei.
[Bokuto-san]: Yeah KeiKei! Good luck! Beat up Aoba Johzen or whatever!
[Me]: Aoba Johsai Bokuto-san
[Bokuto-san]: Yeah! Them!
[Kei]: Right.
[P.I.T.A. Kuroo-san]: You’ll win for sure Kei! We’ve morphed you into a decent blocker!
[Kei]: That’s so encouraging. Thanks. We’ll win for sure.
[P.I.T.A. Kuroo-san]: I sense sarcasm
[Kei]: Do you
[P.I.T.A. Kuroo-san] Aaaah. I can see your sassy face so clearly just from reading your texts.
[Kei]: Gross
[Me]: Creep
[Bokuto-san]: Broooo
[P.I.T.A. Kuroo-san]: Why do i even talk to you people
[Kei]: I ask myself that question every day
[Kei]: I need to go, we’re stretching soon
[Me]: Good luck, we all know you’re a good blocker Kei, it’s just you that needs to realise that now.
[Kei]: Right
--------------------
[Me]: DO YOUR BEST AGAINST USHIJIMA KEIKEI YOU CAN DO ET I BELIEVE IN U
[KEIKEI]: You do realise that we most likely won’t win right
[Me]: Don’t say that KeiKei! You can do it! We’re all rooting for you! We want you to come to nationals with us!
[KEIKEI]: There’s also no guarantee that Fukurodani and Nekoma will be going to nationals
[Me]: Hey hey hey KeiKei! Don’t be so down you got this in the bag and so do we! We’ll see you at nationals! It’s a promise!
[KEIKEI]: I promise nothing
[AkaAaAaAaAshi]: Good luck Kei, we know you’ll do your best.
[Purroo]: Yeah Moonshine, do your best. No matter the result we’ll still be proud of our little baby crow! You’ll be up against USHIJIMA of all people. Any effort put into that is enough for praise. We’ll see you at nationals!
--------------------
[Me]: I’ll see you guys at nationals.
