    Okay, when I first saw this fic I didn't expect it to be a full texting fic, but wow I was not disappointed! This was so unbearably cute and funny, even just through the texts, your characterizations and humor are so spot on, I couldn't stop reading!
    I'm still so excited there's more to come, because this fic is so A++
    I hope we get to find out more about Tsukki's situation w his son and the move, since I got the impression that he was struggling somewhat but fff the addition of Kuroo and volleyball seems to be improving the relationship w his kid, and it's great

    I can't imagine how adorable and heartwarming it'll be for them to meet in person kdsnfjk
    the little interjections of akkashi and bokuto were some of my favorite parts lmao hilarious, and yesss if Tsukki sent me a selfie of him in all his beautiful glory, I'd probably die too, good job Kuroo LOL

    the stranger danger references were also so great, seriously the whole fic was just full of laughs, I couldn't stop smiling!
    Some faves:
    (6:59) hes my best bro but he does NOT have that much game
    (7:20) Hi, this is Akaashi. Kuroo’s fine; he’s muttering to himself on the floor.
    (9:51) WAHT DID U DO TO MY BSET FREIND FOREBER WHYS HE ALL RED N CHOKN ON HIS WORSD

    So much progress over the course of a week, I'm sobbing, and all the mentions of Tobio are A++ I love the idea of single parent Tsukki ; ; and finally:
    (7:49) It’s the first time he’s really looked at me.
    (7:50) So thanks.
    this part was so damn touching, I'm in awe lol

    Thank you for this fic, it was super lovely <3

      When i started this, I didn't expect it to be a full texting fic either-- it was supposed to be a standard novel-esque fic but I was having so much trouble that I gave up and procrastinated by reading a voltron texting fic and lo and behold! This was originally super angsty but changing the format completely remade this into something so much more humorous... thank goodness! I prefer the vibe this fic has compared to the original.

      I hope you liked the backstory in chapter 2! Kuroo defs helped Tsukishima and Tobio become closer even though all he did was talk about volleyball and his dumb friends. Tsukishima was super struggling to the point of constant frustration and volleyball was basically the one thing that connected him and Tobio so it was a complete turning point in their lives.

      You had so many favourite parts, ahh!!! I'm so happy you picked out the "best bro but not that much game" part because we all know Kuroo loves Bokuto but would roast the shit out of him. And also the last part about Tobio looking at Tsukki-- the defining moment of their changing relationship!

      Thank you for commenting, I enjoy reading yours! <33
