Could I request who you think would be the best and worst at flirting?? Like scale of Casanova/a Natural to mumbling fool in front of their crush for the haikyuu boys? It could be anyone from the teams, though I'd also love to hear your thoughts on the miya twins lol
a/n: Oh gosh okay this is going to be interesting. In general, I love the twins! They’re absolute menaces and I love putting them in shenanigans together. Osamu is an absolute darling and one of my favourite characters. Atsumu is a menace to society and his hair pre time skips looks like burnt cheesecake lmao. But I still love the loser (affectionate) especially making fun of him. I have a Haikyuu OC that also does that lmao. She has an au paired with Osamu too.
Okay I picked a few characters and rated them and how they flirt! I hope you enjoy. It’s nice to write some Haikyuu!!

Rintarou Suna (Natural with fun teasing banter):
He’s not the kind of person to flirt with everyone but when he has someone he likes he’s a little shit tease. You can give it back to him though he can take it.
Very much a friends to lovers type of guy so in the crush stages theres a lot of back and forth flirting going on. He gives compliments pretty freely. Sometimes they’re just nice genuine ones. ‘Huh I like that shirt.’ or ‘Looks good.’ but most of the time they have that teasing tone. ‘Aw did you dress up just for me?’ It’s got that half joking, half curious vibe behind it.
A lot of his flirting comes across through how much he talks to you in general. He will not waste his time or bother with people he doesn’t have interest in. He’s the kind of person to get to know someone before relationship so he’ll feel you out.
Sending messages. Likes sending pictures. Not necessary flirty pictures (although will send just selfies sometimes and you flirt back and forth telling each other you look hot) but just general day to day pictures in order to connect. Sends those ‘Damn wish I was there with you.’ messages.
Physical messing around like pretending to annoy you. Messing with your hair. Poking your cheek. Nuzzling his face against your shoulder. He’s a physically affectionate person and likes pushing the boundaries on friendship while crushing.
Seeks out physical touch and takes comfort in it. If he’s comfortable enough to sleep on your shoulder and let you make fun of him then you’re in.
Osamu Miya (Natural but Shy):
The kind of guy who moves at a steady pace with the subtle kind of flirt. The flirts that come out of no where and knock you out. It’ll be a normal conversation then ‘Oh is that new? huh, it’s nice.’ Soft smile and immeditately moves on in conversation. Like? did that just happen?
It’s also that he has his own brand of flirting where you have to know him to know he’s flirting. Ditching his brother to hang out with you? BIG deal. Sharing his food with you? BIG deal. Even making food for you.
It’ll seem like a friends thing with him too but that’s how he operates. He’s a stealthy friends to lovers guy. He’ll come in one day and be like ‘Oh, I made these did ya want to try?’ or ‘Here I made this for ya.’ Then when you’re done it’s. ‘Tell me what ya think. I wanna know ya opinion.’ LIKE BOY. The sweetest.
Learns your favourite drinks and snacks and will keep them on hand and just give them to you like gifts. ‘Gotcha something.’ Acts like it’s nothing too but wears that soft little smile.
Teasing is kind of his flirting too. That’s how he gets along with people by default but it’s teasing banter. If you come hang out with him or visit him a lot it’s all ‘Can’t get enough of me, huh?’ Osamu please.
If you give any of this back by the way he’ll love it because it’s his love language and he’ll give you that oh so sweet Osamu smile with a hint of a blush. He can give it but gets all shy getting it. He just doesn’t expect it? Sometimes he just gets so bold he forgets reciprocation exists and shuts down.
Atsumu Miya (Not a natural but has some charm):
I see him being somewhere in the middle. Like he can be super obnoxious to his fangirls, that’s canon, he does not give a shit about being all smooth and hot.
But he also has natural charisma and charm. However around his crush? A goddamn mess.
The wrong brash thing always comes out of his mouth. You always catch him when he’s fighting with his brother being a hot, loud mess. You see him being all dramatic when he flubs his serve.
See him being a weeping crybaby mess when his gran sends him a message that he’s a good boy. It’s actually endearing but he doesn’t know that. He’s just embarassed.
Then when he tries to talk to you it’s all bright blushes and loud unclear sentences at first. What? Takes a sec to cool down.
Okay now you can understand him he tries the smooth stuff. ‘Hey did ya catch my game yesterday?’ Then Osamu comes in with the ‘Ha the game ya flubbed ya serve so bad you fell flat on ya face?’ cue their arguement.
Will definitely always approach you though no matter how much he embarasses himself. If there’s one thing about Atsumu, he is persistent. The only thing that will stop him is your disinterest. Your interest and laugh (even if it’s at his expense) spurs him on. All the embarassment is worth it.
His flirting is also just asking questions. Always asking questions about you. Wants to know EVERYTHING about you. He never shuts up so the words just keep coming and coming he’s basically gushing over you wanting to talk to you so bad. (Tell him his hair is cool if you think he needs a breather he’ll shut down for a moment)
Tetsurou Kuroo (Thinks he’s a natural but becomes a mess)
In this mans head before he puts the flirting into practice he’s the smoothest motherfucker alive. He’s so cool. The coolest person you’ve ever seen and he is going to wow his crush. He’s going to wow you.
The second he sees you though his head is empty, his cheeks are burning and his mouth betrays him. He’s a hot mess. Goes to say good morning to you and ask how you are but he fumbles so hard over his words. It’s the funniest, sweetest thing too.
After the least smooth recovery of laughing himself off he’ll just stick with an ‘Um, hi.’ and go from there. If you laugh he figures at least he got a positive reaction and that was totally the plan. HE’s IN.
Every time he sees you doesn’t know what to talk about? His mind literally goes blank. Kind of just blurts words out? like ‘COFFEE!’ or ‘VOLLEYBALL!’ or ‘CLASS!’ without thinking and it’s up to you to nod your head and piece it together. Please be patient with him.
Like one time you deduced he wanted to get coffee. The other time he wanted to talk to you about volleyball. The other time was something about class. Once you get him talking he kind of relaxes and his mind fills with words again.
Once his words come back to him he tries flirting but this dork still doesn’t have the smoothest game. It’s all fun facts and smart ass remarks filled with banter which is still fun though.
His idea of flirting is ‘Hey did you know *insert random fact*’. If you counter his fact with a fact of your own he’ll say something like ‘Wow, I should treat you to a drink for teaching me something I didn’t know.’ and that’s the closest to smooth he gets.
The kind of guy who would say ‘Why thank you I grew it myself!’ if you compliment his hair. That’s how ‘smooth’ he is lmao. I love this dork.
Tobio Kageyama (Doesn’t know how to flirt but still pulls off sweet things)
My sweet sweet Kageyama tries his best but his head is just full of volleyball okay flirting is not on the agenda! Neither are crushes he just kind of feels very deeply for you kind of like you’re his favourite person.
So because you’re his favourite person he wants to share his favourite things with you. Volleyball being one of them. Talks about it a lot! But not just that he wants to know if you have a thing you’re passionate about. (God if it’s volleyball too he just will talk to you about it for hours.)
Will buy two things where he used to buy one because he wants you to have one. It’s him wanting to share his likes again. His milk drinks, yoghurt drinks? Two now. Will always offer one your way. Kind of blushy about it. It’s endearing. Again he doesn’t see it as a crush really unless it’s pointed out to him.
Invites you to games and to watch him play in general. He wants you to love volleyball as much as he does. It’s everything to him. He’ll spend time with you outside of that setting as a compromise if necessary.
Kageyama’s version of flirting is looking up to see you in the stands before a game and giving a subtle nod with a small smile. It’s meeting up with you afterwards and thanking you for your support. It’s being happy that you were there. It’s discussing all the things that went right and went wrong because he feels comfortable to do so.
It’s Kageyama saying that he likes hanging out with you but he probably won’t be the one to bring it up first. It’s him figuring out he has crush only when you or someone else points it out to him. It’s all the things he does because you’re his favourite person without realising it.
Timeskip Kageyama though, after taking all these years to realise what it all means might become a little bolder and more intent with his actions. And there will be a day he’ll confess he realises why you’re his favourite person.

Hi! Congrats on 420 followers lmao I just love that ♥️ If you can, for your event, I’d like to request Joint #5 (the Soulmate AU) with Suna Rintaro!
I was also wondering, I saw you have a three request limit, but I wasn’t sure if for this event you’d only be doing one character per prompt or if I can submit one to two more characters for the same prompt?
Thanks for the request!! I hope you like this!
So for this soulmate au I went with these two
1. There’s a radio in everyone’s heads that they share with their soulmates, the two(?) of you can change the tunes 2. You can’t physically harm your soulmate.
Suna x (maybe fem) reader soulmate au!
Event Masterlist
Since you were sixteen there was a link in your head, one that was like a radio station that you could change the channel, any song was possible and even being able to choose to start from any specific parts in the song.
It’s been a year of picking music and taking turns with your soulmate, learning each other's music tastes and finding a way to communicate.
This morning on your walk to your early morning practice, you choose a song to play, knowing he gets up as early as you do.
Good morning beautiful started to play and in your schools gym, Suna Rintaro had his heart start to race.
You change into your gym clothes and put on your knee pads before making your way into your practice, smiling when the song changed in your head to Hello You Beautiful Thing by Jason Mraz.
You aren't sure what he does in the morning, but you’re glad it’s something similar to you and you can swap music that gets you in the zone instead of slower music. You start your practice and change the song when his ends to a song he knows means you’re starting to do your morning routine. A song he finds makes him play better when you start it, ()
After practice, as you shower away the sweat, you get an idea and as you give your conditioner a few moments to sit in your hair, you start to mentally put the songs together.
Suna was sitting on the bench in the locker room, a towel around his neck as he digs through his bag, hands stopping and happiness flooding his heart when he hears you start changing the songs.
“Hello” sang by Adele followed by
“I hope you” sang by Lee Ann Womack
“Have a” song by Joe Crocker
“Wonderful day” by OAR
“I’m thinking” by Rare Bird
“Of you” by Ed Sheeran
“Oh my god is Suna smiling?” Atsumu yells and Suna immediately scowls and returns to his bag.
“You’re seeing things” he says and rolls his eyes, praying to the gods he leaves him be and thankfully because of Osamu he does.
When Suna gets a moment to himself during his home room class, he thinks about songs to send back.
Walking to your after school practice you stop in the middle of the nearly empty hallway, a smile coming to your lips and your cheeks flushing as you hear the song in your head start to sound like radio stations changing until it stops and plays several different sections of songs that go like this
The word Some from the song by Steve Lacy
The word Body from the song by eric nam
The word Once from the song by Pearl Jam
The words Told me from the song by the killers
The words The world from the song by brad paisley
The word Was form the song by Kenny Wayne shepherd band
The word Gonna from the song by Blake Shelton
The words Roll me by cheap trick
You can’t stop laughing. After the second word you knew where it was going and it made you start to giggle. By the end of his songs it was full blown laughter. You changed the station to the actual song by smash mouth before resuming running off to your practice to tell your friends about this.
The next morning as you’re running late to practice, you didn’t start any song and Suna was a little bummed. As he got into his position at the start of practice, he started the song good morning by Max frost and it made you smile as you ran down the hallways.
As you near the volleyball gym, Suna serves the ball a little too hard and as you pass the door it hits you and skims across the front of your face, hitting your cheekbone and nose before basically bouncing off your face and into the lockers on the other side of the hall.
You fall back to your butt and touch your face, it didn’t hurt at all?? What?
“Suna what the hell did you do?!” Atsumu yells and you hear feet coming your way, the squeaky sound of sneakers on a waxed gym floor getting louder until multiple heads pop through the door.
Suna shoves his way through as you’re getting to your feet “are you okay? I’m so sorry the serve got away from me”
you stare into his eyes for a moment, a little star struck. Sure you’ve seen him around and saw his games occasionally, you thought he was handsome and you’d overhear him teasing his friends and it would make you giggle to yourself with how funny he was.
“You did that?” You ask, wide eyes and he nods “yeah I’m sorry again” he says and you laugh a little
“Suna,... I didn’t feel anything” you admit quietly and watch as his eyes widen in recognition.
“Smash mouth” he whispers and you laugh harder “good morning by Max frost” you say, the same song still playing in the back of both of your minds.
“Wow” he says and you see Osamu holding his hand over Atsumu’s mouth and dragging him back into the gym, the rest of the team following suit to be respectful.
“This is.. like a comfortable confusion I don’t know what to say” he admits and you laugh “I feel the same way. I’m happy to finally find you and to get to know you. I love your taste in music! But we both gotta get to practice. How about we have lunch together?” You suggest and he nods with the smallest of smiles on his lips “can’t wait” he says and you nod, your cheeks warming and excitement in your heart from finding him.
You turn to leave but stop, smiling before walking closer to him and kissing his cheek “see you at lunch, Suna” you say and see his cheeks dusted pink as you step back.
“See you” he says quietly, reaching up to touch his cheeks where your lips were as you wave and walk backwards with a smile a few steps before turning and resuming your mad dash to practice, now 23 minutes late.
