Kenma:

Akaashi:

Kenma no

 

Semi:

the name sounds familiar

Oikawa:

Semi:

Yahaba:

Yeah

 

Shirabu:

Fuck no

 

Kenma:

no

 

Akaashi:

I'm fine with it

 

Kageyama:

I don’t like him

 

Oikawa:

Semi:

any reason why though?

 

Suga:

Oh it’s the setter of the Miya twins?

Oh

Ohhhhh

 

Yahaba:

That’s oddly suspicious?

 

Kenma:

he knows something

 

Akaashi:

What’s wrong?

 

Kageyama:

Suga-san

 

Suga:

Sorry Kageyama

 

Kageyama:

Suga-san

 

Semi:

don’t fall for it kou

 

Kenma:

stay strong

 

Suga:

Well

There was an incident between the Inarizaki setter and Hinata

 

Semi:

what sort of incident 

 

Suga:

Um

Something about how he’ll set for Hinata one day?

 

Oikawa:

ooooooohhh 

so tobio-chan is jealous (˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)

 

Kageyama:

I’m not jealous

Suga-san you promised you wouldn’t tell

 

Suga:

Ahh I’m sorry

I’ll buy you meat buns after practice?

 

Kenma:

what

i want to set for Shoyo

 

Semi:

mmm i honestly want to try too

 

Akaashi:

I have set for him before

He’s very excitable

Rather like Bokuto-san actually

 

Shirabu:

Eh I respect him as a spiker

 

Yahaba:

Wasn’t your team beaten by them

And same here

 

Shirabu:

As if yours wasn’t??

 

Suga:

Now now

No team politics in this chat remember?

 

Kageyama:

Why do so many people want to set for that boke

 

Oikawa:

you’ve seen him!

i want to set for him too ♡⸜(˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)⸝♡

 

Kageyama:

You can’t

 

Yahaba:

We get it you’re head over heels for him

 

Kageyama:

No

I’m not

 

Oikawa:

denial is a hard phase to live in (っ◞‸◟ c)

 

Yahaba:

Confessing is right there

 

Kenma:

best choice

 

Suga:

Easy for you to say

 

Oikawa:

so can i add him

 

Kageyama:

…Fine

 

Suga:

It’s because he respects Miya as a setter

 

Akaashi:

That’s fair

He’s an exceptional setter

 

Oikawa:

incoming!

 

Oikawa has added Atsumu

 

Atsumu:

oh?

Shirabu:

Atsumu:

Atsumu:

Yahaba:

It’s mostly to Semi-san

 

Atsumu:

Suga:

It’s probably whatever you’re thinking  

 

Atsumu:

Oikawa:

Yahaba:

Dating life is amazing 

 

Atsumu:

Semi:

Oikawa:

Akaashi:

Was it because he was distracted again?

 

Yahaba:

Yeah

 

Oikawa:

Shirabu:

Yahaba:

Atsumu:

Semi:

Shirabu:

Akaashi:

They are almost on opposite ends of Japan

 

Atsumu:

Shirabu:

Shame

Atsumu:

Shirabu:

Atsumu:

Suga:

Yahaba:

Atsumu:

Oikawa:

Akaashi:

Atsumu:

Suga:

Atsumu:

sakusa kiyoomi

 

Oikawa:

isn't he the one of the top three high school aces in japan ( ˶°ㅁ°) !!

 

Akaashi:

Ah that's why his name sounded so familiar

 

Semi:

ohh ushijima and him are friendly

i think

 

Kageyama:

Oh

He's cool

 

Atsumu:

cool???

all i did was say hi

and he looked at me like i was some kinda germ on his shoe

and walked right past me

who tf does that

 

Suga:

But you call him Omi?

 

Atsumu:

yea ta annoy him

 

Oikawa:

it sounds more like a pet name than anything ∘ ∘ ∘ ( °ヮ° ) ?

 

Yahaba:

Like how you call Iwaizumi-san Iwa-chan?

 

Oikawa:

that's different!!!

 

Semi:

pfft wasn't it because you couldn't pronounce his full name when you were younger 

 

Oikawa:

it's a hard name to pronounce (。•̀ ⤙ •́ 。ꐦ) !!!

 

Shirabu:

It really isn't 

 

Oikawa:

why are we talking about this

can we go back to atsumu calling sakusa-san a pet name

 

Atsumu:

IT IS NOT A PET NAME

 

Semi:

whoa dude chill

 

Atsumu:

sunarin said the same thing

its not a dang pet name

 

Yahaba:

Okay then

What's the relationship between you two?

 

Atsumu:

fuck if i know

 

Kenma:

enemies to lovers

 

Atsumu:

my life is not a trope

and no never???

 

Suga:

Noya said Akagi-san said that you've been annoying Sakusa-san since you two met

And that there's some sort of homoerotic rivalry going on

 

Atsumu:

he's lying

 

Yahaba:

(link: video clip of an interview with Sakusa Kiyoomi, who looked like he wanted to be anywhere but there. He's asked, “would you want Atsumu Miya as your setter?” Sakusa's face soured instantly at the mention of the blond, scrunching up under his mask and he dryly stated, “I'd rather die of bacterial infection.”)

 

Akaashi:

Goodness

 

Oikawa:

and sakusa-san has mysophobia too (ᵕ — ᴗ —)

 

Kenma:

it seems

mutual

 

Atsumu:

im telling ya he hates my guts

 

Shirabu: replying to ‘Noya said Akagi-san…’

I wonder why

Truly a mystery

 

Atsumu:

are ya mocking me i feel like yer mockin me

 

Akaashi:

So you two are familiar with each other?

 

Atsumu:

i guess??

he's annoying as fuck 

 

Shirabu:

As you've said

Repeatedly 

 

Kageyama: 

Hinata thinks he's cool

 

Suga:

He thinks everyone's cool

 

Atsumu:

no way

that fucker aint cool

im even cooler than him

tell him that

 

Kageyama:

No

 

Atsumu:

boo lame

 

———

 

Semi:

if i have to listen to satori talk about ushijima one more time i will commit a crime

 

Shirabu:

Loser

 

Semi:

yep im going to jail

 

Suga:

What about Emiko

You’re just going to abandon your little sister like that?

Wowwwww Eita

 

Semi:

fuck you're right

 

Suga:

I'm always right

Oh I sound like Oikawa

 

Semi:

you sound like Oikawa

 

Yahaba:

You sound like Oikawa-san

 

Kageyama:

That sounds like Oikawa-san

 

Oikawa:

??

i didn't even say anything?? 

what is this slander (¬_ ´¬ )

 

Semi:

you've said something along those lines 82 times

 

Oikawa:

okay fuck you <(ꐦㅍ _ㅍ)>

 

Akaashi:

Good morning everyone

I just dragged a screaming Atsumu away from Sakusa-san 

 

Yahaba:

Good morning Akaashi!

Oh

 

Suga:

You what now

 

Kenma:

komori was doing the same for sakusa

 

Semi:

what happened

 

Akaashi:

Kenma and I were walking around when we saw Atsumu and his twin

As well as Suna Rintarou

Naturally we went up to say hi

 

Kenma:

you dragged me

 

Akaashi:

No, Bokuto-san and Kuroo-san dragged the both of us

 

Kenma:

ugh

 

Akaashi:

And then a few minutes after we came across Sakusa-san and Komori-san

 

Oikawa:

hmm?

that name sounds familiar 

 

Kageyama:

He's one of the top high school liberos

 

Akaashi:

Yes

He recognised us and waved

Which then led into an argument between Atsumu and Sakusa-san which escalated

 

Yahaba:

Back up I think you skipped a few things

 

Akaashi:

Oh no I didn't 

They started yelling the moment they saw each other

Or well Atsumu did

 

Semi:

uhh about

 

Akaashi:

I've no idea

 

Kenma:

sakusa called him a bitch

and then gave him the most disgusted look ive ever seen

i need to learn from him

 

Akaashi:

Kenma 

 

Kenma:

what

 

Semi:

not that im surprised but why

 

Shirabu:

It's probably because of some idiotic reason

Or for no reason at all

 

Atsumu:

all i said was at least the mask saved us from having to look at his ugly face

 

Semi:

hate to agree with shirabu but 

 

Shirabu:

See you recognise my superiority 

 

Semi:

im older than you you brat

 

Shirabu:

Semantics

Get me a strawberry matcha

 

Semi:

kids these days

ordering their senpai around

back in my day we respected our seniors

 

Suga:

You sound like you're fifty

 

Semi:

koushi we're the same age

 

Suga:

And

 

Semi:

we both have gray hair

 

Suga:

Hey I look good with it

 

Shirabu:

Semi-san my matcha

 

Semi:

yeah yeah brat

 

Yahaba:

Why matcha

It's literally grass

 

Shirabu:

You could touch some grass

 

Yahaba:

Just say you're jealous that I've got a boyfriend and you don't 

 

Akaashi:

Ah also

I think Atsumu has a crush on Sakusa-san 

 

Atsumu:

whAT

 

Kenma:

you said that too fast

 

Kageyama:

Oh

Is that what it is

 

Oikawa:

hah if even Tobio-chan picked up on it 

 

Atsumu:

i don't like him??

why would i like him

he's annoying and won't stop insulting me from head to toe

 

Shirabu:

Isn't that a normal reaction to you?

 

Atsumu:

what

 

Shirabu:

Nothing

 

Suga:

Are you all okay though?

 

Akaashi:

Except for some second-hand embarrassment, yes we are

 

Kenma:

also 

it was because we saw sakusa wiping komori's cheek

atsumu was just jealous 

 

Yahaba:

And it gets even better

 

Oikawa:

oh? ( ͡º ꒳ ͡º)

 

Atsumu:

i was not jealous 

this is slander and i aint standing for it

 

Akaashi:

And why else would you storm up to them and start yelling in public?

 

Kenma:

like an idiot

 

Shirabu:

Like an asshole with no sense of manners or public decency

Oh sorry I meant idiot

 

Atsumu:

aren't ya supposed to be nicer when correcting yerself

 

Shirabu:

I was being nicer

 

Kageyama:

Isn't Komori-san Sakusa-san's cousin?

 

Yahaba:

He’s what

 

Oikawa: 

what??

 

Suga:

The plot thickens?

 

Akaashi:

Is he?

They don’t have much similarities 

 

Semi:

oh yeah he is

ushijima mentioned that before

 

Atsumu:

 

Yahaba:

HAHHAHAHHAHAHA

 

Kenma:

lol

 

Shirabu:

That's embarrassing 

 

Oikawa:

HAH tsumu-chan .·°՞( ̑ ᗜ ̑ )՞°·.

 

Akaashi:

I apologise for laughing

 

Atsumu:

i

 

Atsumu has left the chat

 

Shirabu:

Good riddance

 

Yahaba:

He's never living this down

 

Akaashi:

Well 

At least that's been resolved

Hopefully they'll have a better relationship 

 

———

 

Yahaba:

(link: shaky video of Atsumu and Sakusa arguing with each other. Komori is attempting to intervene while Aran and Ginjima are actively dragging Atsumu away, his shouts decreasing in volume until a door slams shut and all is quiet. The video frame flips to Osamu behind the shoulder of the person videoing, on the floor convulsing with silent laughter. It shows a hint of Suna as well, the one recording, brown hair and shoulders trembling to keep himself together.)

Akaashi you were saying

 

Akaashi:

Well I guess it was too much to hope for

Notes:

dont ask how yahaba obtained the video.

i desperately feel like my atsumu is lacking in many aspects but his personality is difficult to emulate. i apologise for that.

also, i think it was confirmed that sakusa doesn't actually have mysophobia, but oikawa doesn't know that because that's how it looks like to other people i guess. oikawa just assumed

thats all. thank you for reading!
