plotted adorableness with @2ndvice​​ and honey.

         honey was not there when hiroki told his team she would be practicing with them. when he told them they had a practice game, then afterwards she would stick around to play with them. she wasn’t there when he told them his little sister, a soon to be first year, who was between two high schools would be a good person to set with and block against. she was small, after all, but could keep up easily. she was to busy being nervous outside to hear any of that. honey didn’t really have any friends. her middle school team was nice enough but, that was about it. hiroki said honey had to stop being afraid of people not liking her, that it wasn’t the end of the world. but to her, it felt like that.

          ‘ honey, get in here! ’

          she knew her brother’s voice pretty well, especially when he was acting all serious. he sure was good at sounding scary. the ginger girl walked into the gym, golden eyes a but uneasy but a big smile on her face. ( that was the honey way. ) sister, hiroki kurokawa had said, but she obviously wasn’t from japan. honey stood beside her brother, looking tiny next to the big captain. “ hello, i’m kurokawa honey, please just call me honey though. ” she liked going by her first name. she bowed to the boys in front of her, “thanks for having me. ”

          ‘ oh --- ’ hiroki said, seeing some confused faces. ‘ she’s adopted. shoulda mentioned that. ’ honey’s eyes twitched, but the smile never faded. “ big brother... i think they could  have figured that out without you being so blunt. ”

                         she  sat  in  the  bottom  of  the  shower,  fully  clothed,  blazing  hot  water  falling  over  her.  honey  barely  felt  the  heat  though,  or  maybe  she  just  didn’t  care.  how  long  had  it  been  since  she  last  took  her  meds?  her  life  getting  so  hectic  that  she  had  forgotten  to  take  care  of  herself.  which,  of  course,  led  to  this.  

                           sitting  in  the  tub  having  a  full  on  break  down.

                          a  stain  on  the  rug  had  somehow  managed  to  send  her  into  a  full  blown  panic  attack.  where  had  it  come  from?  honey  had  scrubbed  and  scrubbed  at  it  yet  it  only  seemed  to  get  worse  and  worse.  flashbacks  from  her  childhood  filled  her  memory,  visions  of  clutter  and  filth.  mice  in  her  bed,  stepping  on  glass  from  old  beer  bottles,  unknown  stains  seeming  to  creep  in  on  her.  it  was  the  past  life  that  haunted  her,  the  life  her  mother  gave  her  as  a  kid.  now,  by  seeing  one  stain,  it  sent  her  into  a  tail  spin.  try  and  try  as  she  might,  would  life  always  come  back  to  that?  would  the  filth  follow  her?  the  abuse?  no  matter  how  hard  she  tried,  maybe  she  could  never  make  life  better.

                            she  barely  recognized  the  sounds  of  her  own  sobs,  hair  wet  and  sticking  to  her  clothes  and  face.  the  knock  on  the  door  only  sent  her  into  more  of   a  panic.  pulling  her  legs  to  her  chest  as  the  boiling  water  burned  her  fair  skin.  “  don’t  come  in!  you  can’t!  ”  please,  don’t.  you  can’t  see  her  like  this.  no  one  can.           //       open  !!!

happy birthday tobio starter !!! ( @setternine​​ )

          IT HAD BEEN AN EXCITING YEAR.     ---     competing in the olympics, winning her first medal, her own birthday and most recently she had bought her first apartment in tokyo. now, it was her favorite person’s birthday. they had very close birthdays, which had always been fun in her opinion even if she was a year older than him. honey always did her best to keep them separate, give him his own day to celebrate. ( it was easy for her, since she didn’t like her birthday but loved his. ) this year was no different. in fact, with both of them doing such amazing things in early adulthood they had even more to be thankful for. so she invited him over to see her new apartment, and celebrate of course.

          she buzzed him in when he arrived, waiting eagerly for him to get to her door. it would take a second though, since she was on the 5th floor. thank goodness for the elevator. honey was throwing the door open before he could even knock. she wore a cute little pink pleated skirt with white blouse, hair down. “ tobio! ” her smile as bright as ever, hands moving to grip his arms. “ happy birthday! ” it had to be one of the first things she said after all. “ come in, come in! ” honey tugged him in, her white pom pup yipping and circling their feet. mari was excited as well, even if she was getting up there in age. honey’s apartment was what one would expect for her. freakishly clean, pink and white decor, lot’s of plants. 

          honey waited for him to settle in before mentioning to the kitchen table. “ ta da! ” on it sat a cake and two wrapped boxes. “ i know the cake is a little... lopsided. ” she giggled, a faint blush on her cheeks. “ you know how i am with cooking, a mess. but, as always, it will taste good i promise! it’s your favorite kind! ” honey stood by the table, pushing one of the gifts forward. “ open this one first. ” golden eyes watched his hands open it, excited to see his reaction. inside were a brand new, top line and newest model, of volleyball shoes. she got them in his favorite colors, naturally. the price point on them was high, but she didn’t care. she knew how much every player wanted these shoes, the were the best after all. “ i don’t want to hear anything about it being to much by the way. ” she spoke before he could, “ they are yours, i’m not taking them back. ”

          once the shock of the first gift got through to him, she pushed the other forward. “ this is... the really good one i think. ” honey watched his face this time, the gift inside a bit more special. an obviously hand made frame with wood details burned into it. not perfect by any means, but still nice. inside the frame was a picture of honey and tobio when they were little, his grandfather standing behind him. “ the frame isn’t great i know... i made it with a new teammate of mine. she helped me. she’s really into making things out of wood and wood burning so i thought i would try. ” honey held her hands up, bandaids around her finger tips and a laugh on her lips. “ i got all the splinters but, it was worth it. ” she stood back, letting him look at the photo. “ my mom found some old undeveloped film, and i went ahead and got it all done. lot’s of pictures of us younger that i didn’t know existed but this one... obviously i knew it would be special to you... ” honey smiled fondly at the photo, remembering the times she had spent near the man as well. not nearly as much as tobio obviously, but she had been very fond of his grandfather. “ i know... he would be very proud of the man you’ve become. i know i am. ”

open - honey.      in which you play video games with honey or watcher her play and learn she can be more intense than you thought.

        SHE IS LEANED FORWARD IN HER CHAIR.   ---   the controller tight in her hands and golden eyes intense. honey is totally into it, and honestly the look on her face is a bit scary. suddenly, the controller hits the ground, “ Gobshite! i let a complete eejet kill me! ” she switched not only to english for a moment, but also a bit of her irish slangs and accent came through in her angry voice. suddenly, she was sinking out of her chair until she was on the ground, laying face flat against the floor. what a drama queen.

continued with @veiliisms​​.

         THEY WERE BOTH BROKEN IN THEIR OWN WAYS.     ---     every time honey looked down and saw the brace on her knee, it was a reminder that her dream was  dead. that she would never play the sport that had saved her life, given her a purpose. she hated to admit that she almost gave up, that she almost didn’t give renji a home to return too... she could have caused him such pain. she hated herself for it. maybe, just as he felt now.

          regret could be a powerful thing.

          she tired to smile through it. what else could she say other than she forgave him? she had no idea. would anything make him feel better? “ i would be right where i am even if you would have been around renji... ” honey spoke softly, fingers touching the brace. “ the things that happened to me... you wouldn’t have been able to stop. plus, you’re here now. we can’t change the past. ” it had been lonely without him but he kept his promise. he came back for her. “ you came back to me. ” honey got up from her seat, sitting on the coffee table that was in front of the man who’s head was hanging low. her leg jut out to the side a bit, since she couldn’t bend it. her fingers laced through his hair and she pressed a kiss to the top of his head. “ i love you. ”

okay but a cute little first date thing for @setternine​​ and honey.

          “ ARE YOU MAKING FUN OF ME OR SOMETHING? ”    ---    her freckled cheeks wear a blush, a slight pout on her lips as she looks down at the ground shyly. when they are together, it rare honey is dolled up. they usually play volleyball together. but, this time, he asked her out on a date. ( a real date? she didn’t know! how do you ask someone that anyway? ) so instead of her normal work out clothes, hair up, natural face... honey had her long ginger hair down in waves, a bit of makeup on, and an adorable dress that was pink and had strawberries on them. “ you keep looking at me funny! you didn’t tell me what we were doing so... i wore something different okay! ”

          she was second guessing herself, she felt silly. the dress was to much wasn’t it? she had thought it was cute bit maybe it looked silly on her body? it’s not like she was slim. what is the makeup looked dumb too?

open - honey.

      she’s pouting because she wants some kisses.

        an adorable date with honey - open to any mutuals.

         SHE WAS GOING ON A DATE.    ---    she couldn’t believe it. let’s be real, honey gets asked out often, the strange part wasn’t that. the strange part was that she said yes. a lot of the time, she got really bad vibes from people. they said dirty things about her, or stared a little to long for her liking. it was hard because she wanted to be nice and friends with everyone. in the end, she didn’t have many other than her volleyball team. girls hated her, boys liked her until she rejected them... then they called her things like ‘ bitch ’ and ‘ prude ’. but this time, she said yes.

         because this person was different. honey wanted to go on a date with them.

         honey wasn’t late, but she had hoped to be early than this. the other told her to meet them outside the park, and that was all she knew. she hurried along, passing people until she saw them. “ hi! ” honey said with a smile as she ran up to them, a tiny bit of her irish accent could be heard when she spoke. “ i hope you weren’t waiting long. ” she wore an adorable dress, pink with strawberries on them. little pink sneakers rested on her feet, and a slightly oversized jacket was tied around her waist. her bright ginger hair was down, long over her shoulders and down her back. honey almost always wore it up, but not today.
