Until we let the spectrum in - Nationals Final - For Beautymarker

Boom

It could be his heart.

Boom

It could be his breath.

Boom

It could be his feet hitting the ground. Or the ball. Or the crowd.

FUKURODANI 33 - KARASUNO 31

That's it.

Planting hands on his hips, Tsukki stares up at the lights. Unable to move, think, hear anything but echoing thunder. Boom. Boom. Boom

It's over. It's over. It's over.

[Daichi feels so lucky. Coming out of everything to see his best friend beaming like that.]

Want me to lecture them too?

It's our last chance!

[He'd be sad about that, in most contexts. Right now it's just so fitting.]

[beautymarker]

YES you're still so much better at it than me
They'll come in thinking that I'm gonna guilt them and then you'll be there
You have to do the scary smile too

[crowdad1]

Just for you, Suga

Hm

Should I pretend to leave?

[Daichi? PLOTTING?????]

[beautymarker]

You're a genius
You absolutely should, these three need to learn their lesson

And we'll STILL be kinder than Tsukki would've if he'd been angry

[crowdad1]

Yeah

Glad we don't have to bury anyone!



HE'S going to have Juniors next year, just thought of that!

[beautymarker]

Oh god...

Daichi, how am I gonna convince him not to terrorize his kouhai??

[crowdad1]

Wow

Um

Yamaguchi?????????

[beautymarker]

Yeah, he's gonna be my best bet
Poor guy...
I'll have to make sure I don't turn him into our mediator

[crowdad1]

Good luck to him and the new players!



You know

I used to think Tsukishima was the leader
but it might be the other way around?

[beautymarker]

You're not wrong, honestly
I've seen Yamaguchi express thoughts and emotions for both of them a few times now
He's got impressive emotional intelligence for their

OH NO I CAN'T SAY FOR THEIR AGE

[crowdad1]

[That gets a loud snort and Daichi can't resist teasing.]

Hung up on being a cradle-robber again? ^_^

[beautymarker]

It’s not a hang up, it’s an OBJECTIVE TRUTH that you can’t talk about people your partners age as being anything “for their age.”

Or talk about when you were their age.

Off limits!!

[crowdad1]

[...Fair.]

Maybe just say 'First Year'?

[beautymarker]

I'll just never mention his age again. He's my boyfriend that is untethered from time as we know it.

[crowdad1]

Does that make you feel better about it?
