It's bratfeen time and I love them

this is so awesome, op. Haikyuu is a MASSIVE fandom on ao3 (and so is kagehina as a ship) so I hope you’re having a fun time sorting through the tags! please let us know if you come across any good ones; I’ve been writing for kghn since 2018 so it’s amazing how you’re supporting all these fics!

Some suggestions to think of using in your search, if you continue to look through the tag chronologically, post-anime: Haikyuu Manga Spoilers (filter this one out)—especially post season 4. This is really important around end of 2019/early 2020, according to the kagehina tag in searches and my own personal experience. Manga spoilers in general, though the anime caught up to the manga around season 3 before the manga took off.

Also, I have a lot of friends in the kagehina fandom, so let me know if I can help you in your search. There’s a lot of non canon compliant/AUs out there so :) I hope you enjoy what our fandom has to offer. Welcome!

When you immediately fall inlove with a pairing but the show is from 10 years ago and you don't wanna get spoil so you gotta start from the oldest fanfics and work your way up cause you you can't risk it and it is an experience. Just like all the little choices people made and how the fandom evolve its like seeing an ant colony building up there fandom from above all these little experiences it's so fun.

we are so back ! I will figure out this damn app.

i can’t wait for the angst and brainrot I’m about to indulge in, it’s gonna drive me to a new level of obsession…. I just know it

(watching good omens for the first time, currently on season 2)

A bike smacks into Tobio, toppling him to the ground.

Tobio lies on the pavement, the breath lost from his lungs. He stares up at the sky, the sun blinding his eyes.

Or, he thought it was the sun.

It turns out to be a short redheaded boy who is screaming at him, which is not much different.

+++

Tobio is late walking home from school, and ends up making a friend. +++ My fic for the @haikyuuminibang, a childhood friends kagehina au! Thanks to @kirikags and @journey505 for partnering with me :D and thank you to the mods for a wonderful event and for being so understanding throughout the process :)

NRMT Canon Divergent AU

Phoenix Wright meets Dahlia Hawthorne in the basement of a district court library.

It has to be fate: she gives him a necklace and in one moment to the next, he falls in love. It’s typical boy-meets-girl-who-tries-to-get-him-convicted of murder.

Alas, this last point does stick a wrench in his fairytale. The glass in his stomach—literal, this time—weighs heavy in his gut and he questions the reality he thought he knew.

Phoenix wove a woman into his life, knew her favorite snacks in between classes, the little wiggle of her nose when she got upset, and the snicker she let out when he told a terrible pun. To untangle her from his memories is—fine. It’s fine. The worst of it is over, at least. All he must deal with are the remnants.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise to him. He has never quite been the type to let go. Larry Butz switched his affections with his moods, but Phoenix never understood.

When someone affected his life, when he fell for them, he didn’t want to let them leave. He did everything in his power to allow them to stay. This, of course, includes the one he spent most of his life chasing: Miles Edgeworth.

Writing letters, changing his degree, it all circled a desire to find him, to return to him the friend from so long ago. And yet, Phoenix wonders, for the first time, if Miles doesn’t want to be saved; if Phoenix, truly, is simply unable to forget the person he once knew.

It’s this that makes Phoenix request a degree course change for a second time; he signs away a path and convinces himself that this is what he should do, what he ought to do.

He hopes, still, he has no regrets.

—

AU where Phoenix decides NOT to pursue law because hey, the Dahlia case puts his life into perspective (i.e. making it all about One Person—not recommended).

Other notes: Mia Fey lives and takes on the defense in Phoenix’s canon cases, narumitsu do meet but in different circumstances, and Phoenix figures out how to build sustainable connections!!!!

Lovers in the Night

A short drabble for cuddly, night-time, tododeku feels.

A loud clap of thunder shattered through the air, the noise startling Shouto from his dreamless sleep. The shock to his system forced his heart to a rapid pace, matching the beat of the rain pounding down his window frame. He turned on his right side to watch the lightning strike the sky, illuminating the world in its energetic dance.

Shouto never liked storms all that much, but he couldn’t deny the beauty of the atmosphere as the rain and thunder played its chaotic symphony, the beautiful bolts of lightning stringing a spiderweb of light and shadow. The night tried to suffocate the stubborn light, but it always came back again to fight another battle in their unending war. Shouto looked to his nightstand, the red glow of his alarm clock glaring back at him. 3am. He sighed. Only 2 more hours until he’d have to get up for the morning shift at work.

He laid back down and stared at the ceiling, willing sleep to come. If he just kept thinking calm thoughts, eventually he’d fall asleep. He hoped. Of course, this method had never worked in the past, but that didn’t stop him from trying. Cold air filtered through the vent, causing Shouto to shiver. He really should get the heating fixed, especially since winter was closing in. Even though he could control his body heat, he preferred sleeping at a comfortable temperature. Plus..... Well, his boyfriend needed to be warm, too. Shouto shifted to his left side, watching his lover’s deep, even breaths. By the light of the lightning bolts, Shouto examined Izuku’s wild green curls splayed across his pillow, his soft features relaxed while he drifted through his dreams. Shouto tucked a few stray strands behind Izuku’s ear and caressed his cheek with his thumb. Watching this peaceful scene, an outsider would not guess the constant strain of Izuku’s strenuous workload. Right now, though, he slept through the raging storm outside, blissfully unaware of the chaos. Good, Shouto thought. Izuku deserved to rest. Carefully, Shouto moved closer to Izuku, wrapping his arm around his body. He curled around Izuku, sliding into the natural spaces made by his limbs. Shouto nestled his head into the soft nest of Izuku’s curls, a small smile pulling at his lips. They fit together so well it was hard to tell where one man began and the other ended. Shouto breathed in deeply, memorizing the coconut scent of Izuku’s hair. Though Shouto had tried to move slowly, his movements roused Izuku into semi-awareness. “Shou’?” Izuku murmured, turning his head slightly. “Shh,” Shouto said. He kissed Izuku’s hair. “Go back to sleep.” Izuku nodded his head and shifted closer to Shouto, pressing his back to Shouto’s chest. In their silence, the storm outside continued to pour down their windows.

“Rain’s loud,” Izuku mumbled. He sighed. “But you’re warm.” Shouto huffed a small laugh. Shaking his head, he kissed Izuku’s head again. Then, he whispered, “I love you, ‘Zuku.” Izuku hummed with content. “I love you, Shou’.” With the warmth of one another to ward off the war outside, they fell asleep, tangled together in a mess of limbs. And, love.

Shouto’s Sonnets

“THEES IS A DEE-SASTER!”

The class 2-A students, lounging in the dormitory common area, whipped their heads toward the sound of the slamming door; a panting Kaminari held onto it like a lifeline. Still, his mouth stretched into a maniacal grin as he tried to stabilize his breathing.

Jirou, the first to recover from the intrusion, leaned back in her chair, thumbing through her book. “Don’t worry, everyone. Kaminari is just being an idiot and exposing his meme obsession to the world.”

A few of the class members relaxed their stances. They had been taught to jump at the first sign of trouble, and Kaminari’s entrance had caused their flight or flight instincts to kick in. Ashido and Hagakure both sighed with relief, collapsing into each other on the couch. Reacting as the class president, Iida pushed up his glasses and gesticulated widely. “That was an unwise decision to make, Kaminari-kun. Our class has been taught to expect danger at all times, so I’m sure we were all frightened when you made such an appearance!”

Kaminari grimaced. “Sorry, Iida. But there’s actually something disastrous going on!” The study group, composed of the girls of 2-A and Iida, put down their materials to give their attention to Kaminari. Uraraka looked excited, but Yaoyorozu’s face betrayed her anxiety. Her faith in Kaminari-kun had dwindled after one too many incidents in the classroom. After the failed ‘improved and blasty’ firecrackers accident, she always felt an air of doom when Kaminari had an announcement to make.

Jirou, who liked to entertain Kaminari’s antics for her own amusement, huffed a laugh, lazily beckoning him forward. “So, what has you yelling on this Saturday afternoon?”

Kaminari, smiling wide, clapped his hands together. “What if I told you I know of the absolute greatest, nay,” He held up a finger to enunciate his words. “The most amazing thing has occurred to one of our classmates, and how we will all benefit from the outcome of this event?”

Uraraka narrowed her eyes before murmuring something to Asui. Deciding not to play into Kaminari’s temptation, Jirou remained silent. Ashido and Hagakure turned to one another before looking back to Kaminari, who was twitching with excitement. Finally, Yaoyorozu broke the anticipation hanging in the air. “Well, I suppose we’d like to hear exactly what happened.”

Kaminari offered a gesture of placation, moving forward and pulling a chair towards him. Instead of sitting down in the chair, he raised one leg onto the seat, leaning forward conspiratorially. “Well, young lads and lassies.” He tipped his imaginary hat, winking. “It all started early this morn’, a day like any other, or so it would appear!” He waved his hands in a dramatic fashion to enrapture them all in his words.

Jirou, however, was having none of it. “Drop the accent and get on with the story or I’ll deafen you for the next hour.”

Kaminari finger-gunned in her direction. “Don’t threaten me with a good time.” However, he acquiesced, turning the chair around to sit on it backwards. “Okay, but I wasn’t kidding. Something super amazing did happen!”

“Is this like the time when you claimed the amount of viewers on your latest Tik Tok video was ‘super amazing,’ kero?” Tsuyu asked, lips twitching with withheld laughter.

Kaminari blushed, while Jirou howled with laughter. Ashido and Hagakure snickered, not bothering to hide their giggles. Yaoyorozu tried to quietly reprimand them.

“Ahem.” Kaminari’s cough failed to hide his growing embarrassment. “Well, yes, this is even more amazing than that.”

Uraraka groaned emphatically, putting her hand to her head. “Can you just tell us already? You’ve built it up enough that I’m hoping it lives up to the hype, unlike another live-action remake of a previously good film.”

Kaminari nodded, solemnly. “Yes, it truly is a tragedy that Hollywood is ruining our favorite movies.” He sighed. “Okay, so! You know how I’ve been patrolling with Freezeframe, recently, as part of work experience?”

“Yes, I’ve heard you’ve been doing well on your biweekly patrols with him!” Iida cut his hands through the air. “Though I have not seen you in action while on my own patrol, I have caught you in the news from time to time!”

Kaminari grinned, a slight blush to his cheeks. “Thanks, prez! He’s a good teacher.” Shaking his head, Kaminari continued. “Back to the point. So, I was patrolling, like any good future pro, and guess who I saw?”

Yaoyorozu raised her eyebrow. “From your tone of voice, I’m assuming you saw one of our classmates?”

Kaminari snapped his fingers. “Bingo! While on my way through one of the city sectors, I caught sight of Todoroki on the other side of the street!”

“I’m hoping you didn’t interrupt him while we was working, right, Kaminari?” Iida said.

“Actually, no.” Kaminari twisted his fingers together. “Well, technically he wasn’t really busy at the time! He was actually talking to a young kid.”

The girls cooed in admiration of the class’ prince. Their cold classmate had slowly opened up to all of them, and it bled into his hero work. Ashido punched her fist into the air. “Aw, I’m so jealous! Seeing the prettiest boy in school talking to a young fan must have been so adorable!”

Kaminari snickered. “Yeah, it was pretty cute.” He stifled another giggle as he continued. “After I crossed the street to say hi, I saw the kid burst into tears.” Kaminari’s audience reacted in kind, murmuring to each other in concern. “It was fine! I promise. I thought the same thing too, so I got closer to see if I could help. But, then! The kid shot forward and clung onto Todoroki’s leg, smearing snot all over his hero costume. I’ve never seen Todoroki look that uncomfortable before, by the way.” The girls giggled, Iida trying to shush them. “So he started patting his head, which made the kid cry even more, but he reached upward to grab Todoroki’s hand and then…”

“What?!” Ashido exclaimed. “What happened?”

“Well.” Kaminari grinned widely. “His hand glowed a bright blue, which made him shiver for a second. I had to avoid looking at it directly because the glare was so powerful. As soon as the light faded, he had this… contemplative look in his eye and…”

“Finish the damn story, Kaminari!” Uraraka yelled.

“Todoroki sprung forward, wrapping the kid up in his arms!”

“What?” Yaoyorozu looked baffled. “That doesn’t sound like Todoroki-kun…”

“Exactly!” Kaminari exclaimed. “By the time I got to them, the kid’s mother, who had been watching the whole time, immediately started apologizing and explained that her kid had gotten so overwhelmed at meeting Todoroki that he accidentally used his quirk on him!”

“Kaminari-kun!” Iida’s disapproval evident in his voice. “It is not good to make light of another person’s injury, especially your classmates!”

“Is he alright?” Uraraka asked. She didn’t think Kaminari would speak this way if he was, though.

“Yeah, he’s fine! Great, actually!” The door to the dormitory swung open, which made Kaminari’s maniacal grin grow in magnitude. “I think that’s him right now! Oh, Todoroki-kun!” He called over his shoulder, in a sing-song voice. “How are you feeling?”

Todoroki entered the room, eyes downcast. As he shuffled in, the girls looked to each other for support, expecting the worst.

Kaminari snickered, patting Todoroki on the back. “What’s the matter, fella? You were so much happier earlier.”

Todoroki stood up, sighing. He looked out the window, at the setting sun. “My love has not returned to me/ I cannot go on until he be.”

The girls exchanged a series of glances in quick succession. Ashido mouthed ‘rhyme?’, while Uraraka shrugged her shoulders. Iida’s eyes widened, mirroring Yaoyorozu’s.

“Are you feeling alright, Todoroki-kun?” Yaoyorozu asked.

“Each day draws another to a close/ Yet all I have to show for it is this prose.” Todoroki flopped down onto the couch, sighing heavily. He shifted his bangs forward to guard his expression.

The assembled group grew concerned, and even Kaminari looked a little sheepish. “He was fine until just now. In fact, he looked really happy, the last I saw of him.”

“Hmm, he was talking about love…” Uraraka said. Then, her face turned mischievous. “Hold on, I’ll be right back!”

She sprinted to the staircase, gone before any of them had a chance to say a word. Tsuyu looked at Todoroki thoughtfully. “Todoroki, does this have anything to do with Midoriya-chan?”

At the sound of Midoriya’s name, Todoroki snapped to attention. He stood up, pacing the room. “The love that swims in my veins/ Permeates through the everlasting flames. When I wake and when I sleep/ He is the only thing I keep.”

Ashido snickered, turning to Kaminari. “Maybe coming back to the dorms reminded him of his unrequited love?” Yaoyorozu nodded in agreement, seeing where she was going.  “It appears this quirk makes him more emotional and forces him to speak in rhyme.”

“Ah, yes!” Kaminari pointed to her. “You’re right! The kid’s mother called it the ‘Tortured Poet’ quirk. It renders the person to respond to their innermost feelings, making them known through rhyme.” His eyes narrowed, sharp with an evil gleam. “Maybe we should get Midoriya to see how Todoroki reacts.”

Hagakure giggled as she pointed to the doorway. “I think we’re about to find out.”

The door to the stairwell burst open, with Uraraka dragging Midoriya behind her. He looked completely bewildered. “What could you possibly have to show me, Uraraka-san? I wanted to finish the next chapter of my notes today!”

“You can worry about your nerdy obsessions later, Deku-kun.” She pushed him forward, lacing her fingers together. “I think you’ll like this surprise.”

Todoroki, who had been distracted by the sunset again, turned to face Midoriya. Instantly, his solemn expression turned to one of glee, and he raced forward. He took hold of Midoriya’s hand in one, caressing his face with the other. Midoriya blushed a deep red, sputtering, “Todo-todo- wha-what are you—?”, but Todoroki didn’t listen to him.

“Another day without your presence in my life/ Would torture my very soul, leave me in everlasting strife.” He tucked a lock of hair behind Midoriya’s ear. “The sound of your voice, the smell of your skin, the feel of your hair/ Without it, I have nothing more to care.”

“Uh—Um-Uh-wha?” Midoriya blushed even brighter. He turned to his snickering classmates. “What’s going on?”

“I don’t know, Midoriya-kun,” Kaminari said, expressing too much sorrow to be real. “He was so sad until you got here. Right, Todoroki-kun?”

Todoroki nodded, but did not gaze away from the man in front of him. Midoriya seemed to be avoiding his eyes at all costs, pleading with his friends for an explanation. “Safety only with him/ Sorrow if I cannot have him/ My every breath hangs on his every whim.”

“Woah, changing from couplets, this time!” Uraraka giggled mercilessly, making Midoriya shoot a glare in her direction. “He must really like you, Deku-kun!”

“To like is intangible, unsustainable.” Todoroki brushed his thumb over Midoriya’s heated cheek. “To love is the fruit of all we’re capable.”

Midoriya squeaked. Ashido and Hagakure were overcome by giggles. Tsuyu tried to contain her throaty croaks, but ultimately failed. Iida looked almost as bad as Midoriya, blushing deeply and gaping widely, unsure of what to do.

Midoriya started to chuckle, awkwardly. He gently, but sternly, pushed away from Todoroki. “Ah, ha, ha, guys, very funny.” Though Midoriya looked like he found it anything but funny. His tight grin betrayed his strain. “I see. Great joke. Todoroki-kun must be under the effects of a love quirk.” The girls tried to chime in, but he held up his hand. “This is all very entertaining, but I really need to, uh, get back, and do, some uh, stuff. Bye!” Midoriya speed-walked out of the room, ignoring the calls behind him. Everyone looked at each other, shell-shocked.

Todoroki fell to the ground in a crouch, clutching his knees to his chest.

Kaminari was the first to break the silence, releasing an awkward chuckle. “Well. That’s not what I had planned.”

Uraraka laced a hand through her hair. “I thought this would be a good opportunity for Deku-kun to realize Todoroki-kun’s feelings.”

“Yeah, well.” Tsuyu said. “Now he thinks we did all this to play a prank on him, kero.”

Yaoyorozu frowned. Her gaze drifted toward Todoroki, who was mumbling to himself. “Are you okay, Todoroki-kun?”

Todoroki-kun looked up at her, face miserable. “The dark skies never leave/ Alone, my heart can only grieve.” His words ended in a groan, and he shifted on the ground until he could hold himself in the fetal position, rocking back and forth in agony. “Love is my very strength, my very weakness/ Without him to hold, I suffer in the bleakness.”

“Alright, Shakespeare, we get it.” Ashido leaned down to pat him on the head, but Todoroki swatted her off in agitation.

“Only his touch will bring me peace!” He glared at Ashido. “Without it, my cries will never cease.” When Ashido backed down, Todoroki resumed his rocking, mumbling Midoriya’s name in his long, woeful couplets.

Yaoyorozu watched her friend, dispirited. “I believe we went about this in the wrong way. Maybe we should have waited for them to come to terms with their feelings on their own.”

Hagakure groaned, flopping back on the couch. “Yeah, well, we’ve already had to deal with it for this long, I don’t know how much more I can take.” She motioned towards Todoroki. “And hearing his terrible poetry makes it so much worse.”

Having pushed down most of his own embarrassment, Iida finally spoke. “Yes, well, I quite agree with your sentiment. However, our conduct today was not permissible in the slightest. I feel deeply regretful for my actions by not intervening sooner.”

“So.” Tsuyu turned to the others. “What do we do, now?”
