*insert inarizaki’s classy saxophone*

eli, probably obsessing over haikyuu again, its been six years now you’d think i’d move on atp //trashhdez alt// pfp: barawrah// (they/them) - intp :D

[angelsparkls]

all my favorite fics that no one asked for:

* = my absolute favorites

multiple ship fics:

All in the Cards (series)* - (haikyuu) MY FAVORITE FIC OF ALL TIME! although lengthy it is such a good read and has a lot of popular ships! the au is such a cool concept and the plot and characters are thought out so well it’s amazing and should definitely check it out

The Crystal Miracles - (kuroko no basket) based off steven universe but coming from someone who has never watched steven universe the fic was not super dependent on it and was just based around the plot of steven universe (apparently i talked about with my friend who actually watched steven universe) i thought it was cool so definitely recommend! also a bit lengthy but worth it

friends, worlds apart - (haikyuu) it’s mainly bokuaka but there’s other ships so i decided to put this fic here. tbh i don’t remember it too well but i do know it well enough to know that it was really good! it’s a pretty long hogwarts au fic and is based off basic plot points from harry potter but it’s not too similar imo so overall a good read!

Haikyuu:

Death Threats & Wine Bottles - (semishira) domestic semishira. that’s all. it’s cute. there’s nothing to not like about it.

Saltwater Room - (kuroken) i think i read this because of a recommendation and man it was funny. i enjoyed all the fun little bits of kenma and hinata just being friends but also the more serious angsty parts and having the whole conflict with kuroo and kenma’s dream. *sigh* it’s good but lengthy. worth it in my opinion but i like long fics so maybe not your cup of tea

When I Fall In Love - (semishira) i can’t really remember this fic since i read it a long time ago but i do remember liking it! the band au/pianist au concept was cool seeing it with semishira and they are so supportive of each other after they get over their annoyance! it’s not as long as the other long fics i’ve recommended but definitely give it a shot!

Cover My Thoughts In Gold - (bokuaka) some classic soulmate au because they are soulmates so why not have a fic that has them be confirmed soulmates

True Ending - (kuroken) marriage proposal in the best and cutest way possible and one that perfectly fits them 🥺

Cat’s Out of the Bag - (kuroken) it’s just some cute little scenes of kenma as a shapeshifter and kuroo not knowing. it’s quick but so so cute how they interact

Maybe, Probably - (sakuatsu) cute hogwarts au of slytherin atsumu and ravenclaw sakusa. yeah that’s basically it

Rose Gold - (semishira) ROYALTY AU SEMISHIRA AAAAAAA definitely one of my favorite considering that I actually never see a royalty au centered around them

Vibrant - (semishira) im a sucker for soulmate aus but this soulmate au especially was such a cute concept!

A Musical World Thanks To You - (semishira) soulmate au fic but you can hear songs that your soulmate is listening to! it really is such a good concept with semi asking shirabu to be in the talent show with him and perform a song and yk yk big build up to the moment hehe

Dog visits - (kyouhaba) the classic “oh he’s different than i thought what do i do now” and yahaba being soft with kyoutani’s dog is everything and kyoutani not knowing how to deal with yahaba barging into his life 😍

be my honeybee - (kyouhaba) tw: implied/referenced child ab/se if you aren’t comfortable with that please don’t read <3 but it is a good fic and addresses real issues especially with kyoutani not really having anyone to help him until yahaba came around. it’s a bit long and made me cry a little so that’s why it’s good

Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back - (kyouhaba) everyone has superpower abilities!! i always love aus like this so it’s not a surprise it’s one of my favorites. it also touches on mental health in the form of kyoutani doing too much for people when he doesn’t need to and always sacrificing himself for others even when it makes him unhappy. it’s so good tho if you ever decide to read it because it is a bit long

rewrite the stars - (kuroken) arranged marriage au where kenma and kageyama are going to get married but by the end they realize that they are marrying the wrong people and its so cute seeing kenma come to that realization

Kuroko No Basket:

The Frog in the Well - (midotaka) it has been a while since i read this fic but i do remember laughing about this and just thinking it was overall cute especially with the whole aspect of being a loose retelling of “The Frog-King” and i know two other people who also read this and thought it was cute so there’s that

The Witch in the Tower - (murahimu) this is from the same series and author as the previous knb fic i recommended because this fic is also based around a fairy tale and i found this really cute because they are kinda domestic in this fic since there’s just an adopted child in a tower… anyway

Feels Like Winning - (murahimu) just some soulmate au for them because murasakibara not knowing how to deal with feelings <3

Only with You - (kikasa) a cute fic for this surprisingly underrated ship! it’s not too long but encompasses these idiots’ relationship in this fic perfectly

Claws and paws - (murahimu) this shapeshifter au is so cute because like height difference 😍 and also the whole idea of like himuro being this tiny cat compared for murasakibara is funny to me. it’s kind of long but i enjoyed it!

Other Fandoms:

Boy Problems - (mirio togata x tamaki amajiki) an OG for me it’s actually one of my first bookmarks and it’s a cute little oneshot that reminds me how oblivious and stupid these idiots are

the blind leading the blind - (childe x zhongli) it’s not really focused on relationship but it really touches on the betrayal that childe feels after realizing that zhongli gave his gnosis to signora behind his back and i think this fic is so very cool for creating that scenario and executed it perfectly!

kintsugi - (teru minamoto x akane aoi) oh lord. oh god. this fic actually kinda broke me. it’s a very bittersweet fic that makes me go OMG YAY and then oh oh oh oh /neg but it does end happily. at what cost tho. it’s so so so good tho definitely recommend. a little lengthy but not too bad

Look At Me Like That - (momotarou mikoshiba x aiichirou nitori) THIS FIC SUMS UP THIS SHIP PERFECTLY! ITS SO GOOD! like the whole thingg of ai having unrequited feelings for rin but is now in love with this idiot momo is exactly how i see their relationship and having that tied up in this one fic.

SATORI TENDO- Haikyuu Wallpaper/ Lockscreen

[yuumoriarty]

one of my favorite things in haikyū!! was shirabu and tendou watching the games together with goshiki and try hard as goshiki may, he can't escape from them

goshiki really said "i should've watched this in my own room" but tendou and shirabu just followed afterwards I'M CRYING THEY'RE SO ADORABLE

bonus panels because the shiratorizawa boys are all so precious to me and so close to my heart:

NOTE: these panels were from the karasuno vs. nekoma, fukurodani vs. mujinazaka, and karasuno vs. kamomedai matches

[klwl-truck]

“No other boy in the world is as beautiful as me~” 

[happy-hokkyokugitsune]

Tendou broke his phone and instead of buying a new one he just got his teammates walkie talkies.

- Semi huffs and accepts the walkie talkie with an eye roll. But, after the first week, pure childhood nostalgia has him in it's grips. It has him and Tendou routinely staying up till three chatting together.

He'll whip out his guitar when inspiration strikes and strum a new tune just to get everyone's reactions.

He had to use it for an emergency, he didn't have service at a party that got busted and luckily the walkie talkie worked. Reon went and got him out of there. The others were seen carrying theirs more often after that.

- Ushijima gives the team a morning announcement every day around six to tell them of the volleyball agenda.

He uses it when he can't find his phone, which happens more often than one would think, but his teammates are the only people he really needs to speak with so it works.

He doesn't converse much, but he enjoys hearing the others talk. Sometimes he lays in the dark, the walkie talkie resting on his pillow, his ear pressed against it, just listening to the comforting sound of Semi and Tendou talking until three am.

- Hayato grinned wildly when he received his, held it in the air, and cackled maniacally.

He always says the word "over" when using it and has given everyone code names. According to him, it's a crime not to do so.

He's constantly telling them puns he thought up and laughing afterwards without pause.

He is the resident gossip and information hub, many a conversation from him is started with "Guys! Guys! You'll never guess what just happened!"

- Reon tapes the button down around seven so they can all listen to his new morning mix together as he gets ready for the day.

He's known for trying out new restaurants on the fly so he'll shoot a quick message out to see if any of them want to join an impromptu meal with him.

Sometimes he leaves the volume up too loud, it can get really embarrassing, especially when Hayato says his puns and cackles like a hyena over the line.

Reon always wishes everyone a good night.

- Goshiki is excited, but he doesn't want to seem childish. It's only after Ushijima accepts his with a nod that he lets the stars fill his eyes as Tendou hands him one as well.

Semi doesn't know, but sometimes Goshiki will make up song lyrics for his tunes.

His first year friends are quite jealous that he has a direct line to Ushijima through a walkie talkie.

Goshiki loves his so much that he made a special spot for it on his bed side table and covered the back in stickers.

He even named it.

- Kawanishi leaves his off for the first three days before he gets an idea. His teammates aren't aware, but Kawanishi is amazing at impersonations. He strategically uses this ability to pull pranks on the others as he perfectly copies their voices.

Shirabu and him also use it for studying when they don't want to leave their dorm rooms. But they use a private channel. They aren't sure why they use it instead of their phones, but neither is willing to ask the question first.

He would never in person, but alone in his room he laughs hysterically at Hayato's puns and Tendou's ridiculous stories.

- Shirabu thinks its stupid. At first he just diligently listened to Ushijima's announcements. He started listening to Reon's morning mix. Then he learned that he felt less drained studying with Kawanishi this way. Now he actively absorbs all of Hayatos juciy gossip and always pauses if he can to fully focus on Semi's music. He even finds himself listening to Tendou and Semi talk till late into the night as well.

Shirabu ends up loving the damn thing. He really hates whoever is impersonating him though.

He's one hundred percent sure it's Tendou.

Eighty year old Shirabu finds the walkie talkie in a box in his attic.

This is what happened I'll hear no other take

[chop-chop-manbun]

[happy-hokkyokugitsune]

Goshiki and Hinata calling each other by their first name is something special to me.

Just imagine all the things they went through together, those next couple of years, the camps they attended, and the matches they must have had.

It has me thinking about how they exchanged contact info back in their first year. Makes me imagine them going out for ramen and watching volleyball matches together. I can just see the two of them becoming a little too rowdy on the train in their excitement for the game.

They may be on different teams and countries now, but there is no doubt in my mind that these guys still contact each other on the regular.

They're besties.

pls keep eli away from me

HELP I EVEN GET MY OWN TAG

[audinosaur]

koganegawa and goshiki telling dateko and shiratorizawa that they’re dating someone from a rivaling team and they’re all “WHAT!! no you can’t do that nobody’s good enough for you >:((” then they find out it’s kogagoshi and they’re like “oh him?? lmao nevermind”

because literally who can deny kogagoshi?? it was written in the stars.

i found the Haikyuu exhibit chibis in HD and tried to make them transparent ✨✨✨

pt.2

[kimbapisnotsushi]

one thing i absolutely adore about the timeskip is how it gives us details about the characters we didn’t know much about before. like i know this probably isn’t true of EVERY character but looking at how many whose timeskip lives reflect their interests and such in high school (kenma, yachi, osamu, fukunaga, etc) then i’m willing to bet that a lot of the others had those hobbies and whatnot back when we first met them and i think that’s so cute??? like semi being a musician he probably had a guitar or something with him back in the dorms. kai became an arborist so maybe he liked taking walks to look at the trees and visited parks or had his own lil garden. lev and alisa might have played dress-up together when they were kids and could have gone shopping a lot in high school. akaashi became an editor so he was probably a giant bookworm and loved reading. like idk i just think it’s neat how it makes it feel like even in the future when we meet everyone again it really does feel like they’ve grown but haven’t changed at all y’know???

something im incredibly proud of is making my bsf rate haikyuu characters and she took one look at akaashi and instantly said “oh, he’s hot” and rated him a nine
