There. Not in time to stop, but Tsukki sees it a split-second faster. Manages to get a brush on the ball. Slow it a fraction.

"Nishinoya!"

Nishinoya to Kageyama, and Hinata's already a blur. Soaring high above the net, too late for an Owl to catch. The ball rockets through.

Tsukki lets his eyes match Bokuto's. Just for an instant, enough to share his own smirk.

I see you.

The score climbs higher.
