2016 Locker for arsenicjay

This is the Valentine's Day 2016 locker for arsenicjay!

Here are some GIFT IDEAS:

Name: arsenicjay

Friending Meme Post: (optional)

Fandoms: Haikyuu!!, Daiya no Ace, Kekkai Sensen, Noragami, Durarara!!

Characters/Pairings/Moresomes: HQ: BokuAka; DNA: char studies/any ship w Miyuki or Ryousuke, MiyuMei, KuraRyou, SanRai, SanaMiyu; Kekkai Sensen: preference for Gen, Leonardo or Black especially; Noragami: light Bishamon/Yato (or if you wanna be a real gem to me, 'that one time'/very light/messy Bishamon/Yato/Kazuma), sweet Kofuku/Daikoku; Drrr: Shizaya, hateship Kida/Izaya, Shizuo &/ Kazuka.

Likes: Domesticity, pre-slash/relationship, first kisses, dates, HP AUs, unexpected kindness/sweet gestures, festivals/matsuri, cultural context, nuanced characterisation, canon, emotional whiplash (if delving into PWP, I'm down w most kinks, particularly: powerplay, fear kink, dub con), playing around with writing style/perspective/chronology.

Dislikes: Mischaracterisation. Gender stereotypes. Prefer no A/B/O unless there's no power disparity between gender/'type'(i.e., A/B/O universes where omegas are NOT denigrated). Prefer no meet-cute type AUs (e.g., no coffee-shop/florist/tattoo/etc AUs). Established universe AUs (e.g., HP AU, SnK AU) and canon-divergences are fine.

Anything else: Nope :3 Thank you!

Reminder that NOTES are welcome too - just a nice little comment (either plain, or you can even type it up on a nice little graphic/image etc.) for the recipient.


(Comments are going to screened until the reveal on Feb 14. Lockers will be open until the end of Feb 15)

Someone wise once said, "You always want the things you can't have." Or maybe they didn't, and Bokuto's making that up. Maybe what they actually said was, "You idiot, stop spending volleyball practice staring at your setter's butt," and Bokuto just hadn't been paying attention, because he clearly missed that life lesson. In all fairness to Akaashi, though, Bokuto spends just as much time staring at his face. It's to build a good working relationship. Honest.

Anyway the point is Bokuto's in second year and he's never dated anyone—actually, he thought he'd never want to date anyone, but along comes this first year who's put straight onto the first string as setter, and, okay, Bokuto wants to date him pretty bad. When he imagines it, though, it's always a disaster. In his dreams, Akaashi turns him down with that stone-cold glance he's so good at doing, and mournful saxophone music plays into the night as Bokuto wanders home in the rain, alone with his failure.

Luckily, real life doesn't have a mournful saxophone soundtrack, but there's still the crushing weight of failure and the failing weight of a crush, and there is very much still Akaashi's butt to stare at all through volleyball practice.

Bokuto comes close, a couple of times, to asking him out. He clears his throat like he's going to say something important, and then doesn't, and Akaashi looks at him like he's from another planet, which, to be fair, he sort of is, but he reckons his otherworldly appeal is all part of the package. Bokuto would make a very convincing alien. He just wouldn't have the strength of character to abduct anyone, because that would be pretty mean, but sometimes he wishes he had a tractor beam that he could point straight at Akaashi—maybe then he'd get the message.

It's after practice one day, when he's beginning to lose faith, and even his usual hobbies are losing his zeal, that he first sees a glimmer of hope, a light in the sky. Like a beacon, Akaashi's walking towards him with sweat rolling down his face and a towel around his neck, and Bokuto clears his throat, just in case he needs to say something important.

"Bokuto-san," is how Akaashi always greets him. Bokuto would be lying if he said the way Akaashi pronounces his name leaves him anything other than weak at the knees. "Can we talk?"

"We can always talk," Bokuto says. "We can talk whenever you like. Hey, look, we're talking already!"

Akaashi smiles. "We are. I was hoping to get your opinion on something."

"I'm full of opinions," Bokuto says. "Practically bursting at the seams. I've got opinions on everything from onions to outer space. Go on, try me!"

"I'll pick an intermediate option," Akaashi says. "You're older than I am, so I thought you might have some more insight into this... I'm looking to confess to someone."

Bokuto's heart sinks to the floor. "Oh."

"I need your advice," Akaashi says, "on whether or not it's a waste of time. You see, the person I'm thinking of confessing to... well, he's very friendly with me, but he's that way with everyone, so I don't know if it's any different for him."

"He sounds fake," Bokuto says. "You should confess to someone more genuine."

"I'm not done," Akaashi says. "He's not fake, really—everything he does comes from the heart, even if he can be a bit overwhelming sometimes. And when I'm around him, I feel the need to look out for him, like he's always looking out for me. But I don't know if he's the sort of person who'd be receptive to my confession, really. I don't know him as well as I'd like to."

Bokuto hums. "Maybe you should get to know him first," he says. And then get to hate him! he thinks gleefully. There's such a great joy in thinking unreservedly nasty thoughts about a stranger—things he'd never ever voice, because he knows it's an unhealthy way to think, but he lets himself wallow, for now.

"Okay," Akaashi says. He clears his throat. "Are you doing anything this weekend."

"Me?" Bokuto says, snapping back to cheerful attention. "Of course! At your disposal!"

"We should hang out," Akaashi says. He looks at his feet, then back up at Bokuto. "Get to know each other a little better."

"Alright," Bokuto says, "I'll put it in my diary."

It's only once they've said goodbye for the evening that it clicks in Bokuto's head—that Akaashi wants to get to know him! Him! He runs out of the changing room shouting, but by then Akaashi's already left. It doesn't matter, though—they've got the weekend to get to know each other better, and maybe then Bokuto will have the courage to stop pining and start acting.

Hey AJ! I hope you have an awesome day! I wrote you a thing I'm sorry it's so short!!

Akaashi Keiji/Bokuto Koutarou (Haikyuu!!) G, fluff

Keiji wakes in the morning to a bed that he's not familiar with, in a room he's not familiar with, and he blinks, needing a moment for his brain to process this information.

Koutarou is sleeping beside him, face pressed against Keiji's shoulder, his soft hair a fluffy mess of black, grey and white, curling lightly now that there isn't any product in it. Keiji brings a hand up to stroke it gently and he smiles to himself.

Right. It's their first morning together in their new apartment.

Keiji's entire body aches pleasantly from the previous night and the skin of his neck stings with new hickeys. They were both incredibly enthusiastic about breaking their new bed in and Keiji supposes that they've well and truly taken care of that, now. Koutarou will probably insist on starting on the couch next.

He sits up, rubbing a hand over his face as he yawns. Beside him, Koutarou makes a low, sleepy whine of protest, reaching out to clutch at Keiji. He gets Keiji's wrist, holding onto it, and settling back against his pillow with a sigh.

Smiling to himself, Keiji gently pulls his hand away and bends to kiss Koutarou's forehead before getting out of bed.

He locates his boxers, pulling them on and walking out of their bedroom and into the kitchen. He made sure that the coffee machine was set up yesterday, so that he wouldn't have to figure it out in the morning. Their mugs are both sitting on the counter and Keiji rinses them out as the coffee machine warms up. He goes to brush his teeth, assessing his reflection. He looks tired, but he supposes that's to be expected, when yesterday was such a long day. Koutarou is probably even more tired, considering he doesn't know how to take things slowly and was pushing himself to get everything moved in and set up as quickly as possible yesterday.

Sure enough, Keiji is just finishing making their coffee when he hears Koutarou getting out of bed. He's groaning sleepily as he shuffles out of their bedroom and into their kitchen, still naked. He wraps his arms around Keiji's waist from behind, kissing the back of his neck.

"Good morning," Keiji murmurs, tilting his head just slightly to nuzzle against Koutarou.

"Isn't it?" Koutarou sounds happy. "First morning together in our first place together. That's pretty special, hey?"

"Yeah," Keiji replies, placing his hand on top of Koutarou's. "Brush your teeth and put something on, I'm making you coffee right now."

"You're the best," Koutarou tells him. "You're amazing. I love you. I'm so lucky I have you."

Keiji bites back his smile. "Go on."

Koutarou does, making his way back to their bedroom to find his boxers, then going to the bathroom. Keiji takes a sip of his coffee, grinning against the mug. Life with Koutarou is going to be interesting, and he's looking forward to it.

"Back," Koutarou announces, when he's done brushing his teeth. He wraps his arms around Keiji again. "I'm here for coffee and snuggles. I bet you've got both of these for me."

"Lucky you," Keiji smiles, pushing the mug on the counter a little closer to him, before holding his arms open.

"Yeah," Koutarou agrees, wrapping both his arms around Keiji and holding him close. "Seriously. Lucky me."

hello!

I don't know you that well but I remember you left me a really amazing comment on Take A Turn. I also remember it was a pretty tough week, and seeing that super-long comment made the stress just disappear. I'm not sure if my reply properly conveyed how thankful I was, but I want you to know that it's something I really appreciate, and sometimes I still look back on it when I have a rough day, or when I'm not feeling up to writing, and it makes me feel so much better. I hope you the best! Have a great week ahead!

Happy Valentines Day!
