surprise more general hcs! i’m working on something with Suna rn but these have been on the brain so here you go.
atsumu is a sleep talker, osamu snores really loudly. on several occasions during training camps tsumu has told samu to shut up in his sleep. it freaks out the rest of the team, especially aran
the only reason ushijima doesn’t laugh much is because he’s insecure about it. it’s loud, and goofy, and he snorts without fail every time. tendou knows this, and as a result constantly tries to get him to laugh in public. it’s worked two times:
the first was when they were coming out of the locker room for practice early, and tendou made a comment about coach washijo, which made ushijima let out the b i g g e s t snort
only to round the corner and see goshiki and shirabu staring at them.
the only time they’ve ever seen him look embarrassed
second time around was during a late night snack run
ushi is just trying to pick something so he can go back to the dorms and sleep meanwhile tendou is taking advantage of the flash sale on ice cream
he finds tendou rummaging around in the freezer section and tries to get his attention, only for tendou to whip around with two popsicle stick hanging out each side of his mouth
ushijima laughs so hard they get escorted from the store
in addition to his pet turtle, aone has a lot of houseplants
he does his best to be gentle with them and takes very good care of them
he names all of them <3
on one of futakuchi’s birthdays he gifts him an ivy plant bc they represent friendship
futakuchi does his best to take care of it afterwards
just some general hcs about inarizaki boys! the kiyoko piece is a lot longer than i expected so i’m gonna flesh it out more!
kita shinsuke
sometimes when he’s helping his grandma clean around the house, he’ll turn on some old music and dance with her because it always makes her smile
he’s actually a really good cook! he cooks for his siblings pretty often so he can fix up simple stuff but he can also do more complicated dishes so long as he has the recipe
speaking of cooking, he learned to cook from his older sister! he enjoys cooking, particularly baking and sometimes he’ll team up with osamu and try out a new recipe together
has a soft spot for his little brother, always brings him little trinkets from the city when he goes for big competitions
he and aran are close, and sometimes they take biking trips or hikes around hyogo
doesn’t necessarily care for keepsakes and such but will buy them for his family/friends if they want them
fluent in english and probably already learning another language
miya atsumu
acts like an idiot, is an idiot
starts the most fights with samu but also apologizes first
won’t say it but really likes hugs and physical affection
always willing to try osamu’s recipes, actually helpful
never brings more than a notebook, two folders, and a handful of loose papers to class with him yet somehow he’s still organized? AND keeping pretty decent grades (it pisses osamu off to no end-)
makes a ton of jokes that don’t land but the one time it works he won’t shut up about it
genuinely just likes making people laugh
miya osamu
acts like an idiot, is only half-faking it
will make fun of atsumu for doing something stupid even though he’s two steps away from doing the same shit
decided he wanted to pursue cooking as a career after creating his first recipe and seeing how much his family enjoyed it
folds chopstick wrappers into origami chopstick rests at restaurants (like this!)
sings to himself almost all the time, he has a pretty nice voice too
one of the few times you’ll find him embarrassed is if someone catches him singing
snores. loudly.
suna rintaro
gets way too involved with the twins’ bullshit even though he SWEARS he won’t anymore
like he comes back home from practice and promises himself next time he won’t go along with any stupid stuff they do or go with them somewhere else after practice
next practices comes and goes and afterwards he somehow ends up sitting in a shopping cart at the top of a hill with osamu about to push him down, akagi is sitting in the other cart next to him with atsumu getting ready to push, and he’s just sat there thinking
“why am i like this”
we know his favorite food is chuupet but i feel like he has a big sweet tooth in general
i feel like he has a baby sister specifically, like still in elementary school
lets her paint his nails and cleans them up so they look nice afterwards, will wear them until she wants to change them again
ojiro aran
in addition to liking vintage shows, he also watches old stuff from other parts of the world
so old american shows from the 50s and 60s, old telanovelas, stuff like that
lowkey watches kdramas
also a great singer! has a really smooth voice, honestly really soothing to listen to
thoroughly enjoys queen (his favorite song is good old fashioned lover boy)
definitely bilingual
along with their biking/hiking trips, aran is the one to suggest he and kita try new restaurants and cafes
momma’s boy >:) i just know he is, he treats her like a queen
first piece! been thinking about Sakusa lately and how he definitely has skincare nights with his s/o, so here, have him being sickeningly soft
“Are you sure you know how to do this right?”
“Of course I do, now hush, let me focus.”
Kiyoomi smiles and relents, letting you tilt his face up gently and get to work. After coming back from practice earlier that evening, he wanted nothing more than to slump in your arms and rest. But, you knew he would regret not taking care of himself the next morning so you offered to do his skincare routine for him. You’ve seen him do it hundreds of times, it can’t be that hard, right?
He watches as you bring the towelette to his face, wiping away any excess water. Next comes the toner, and rosewater mist. “Is some of this stuff even necessary?”
“Absolutely.”
“If you say so.”
He pouts slightly at your teasing, just enough for you to notice before it disappears completely. You decide not to prod any further, as much as you want to. Bringing the eye cream up to his face, you dab a little softly onto his skin, and rub it in with your thumbs. Kiyoomi sighs at your touch, seemingly melting into your hands. You can’t help but admire him for a few seconds before continuing. How lucky you are to be able to see him like this.
The night serum is the next step. You unscrew the dropper from the bottle and apply that to his face as well, massaging it in the same way as the other products. Kiyoomi stares up at you, somehow entranced.
“You’re staring, you know.” You stop massaging his skin and simply hold his face in your hands.
“You’re incredible, you know that?”
A little flustered by the sudden compliment, you try to move on and continue with his routine. He stops you, grabbing one of your hands and holding it to his face.
“I mean it. I know I don’t say things like this often, but I really do mean it. I want you to know how much you mean to me. I love you.”
His words are simple and yet, they strike you in the heart regardless.
“I know, Kiyoomi. I love you too.” You can’t bring yourself to say much else right now, but you hope the emotion in your voice is enough to get across how you feel.
He stares into you eyes a few seconds longer, until he lets go of your hands and relaxes again, satisfied. You continue with the last step of his routine and move to the sink, putting everything away. Kiyoomi comes up behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist and burying his face into your neck. You reach a hand up & pet his hair, silently promising to come to bed soon.
And this, the comfortable silences, unspoken words, the simple touches and quiet acts of affection, is what makes Kiyoomi love you.
