Domesticity With Kageyama Is When, Before You’re Married, Before You’re Even Engaged, Tobio Will

*Excite*

This is exactly what i thought

he knows how to ball and aristotle.

oikawa tooru, iwaizume hajime, tsukishima kei, kuroo tetsuro, sugawara koshi, akaashi keiji

see the thing that gets me about the nekoma v. nohebi match is that when naoi is helping yaku on the side of the court, he tells him, "shibayama may look weak, but he's strong" to try and reassure him and yaku just goes, "i know. it's not him i'm worried about" in response

and whenever i read that i'm just like "!!!" because yaku never doubted shibayama! yaku ALWAYS believed in him, even when shibayama didn't believe in himself! yaku trusted that he would carry! what the fuck was naoi even on! why would he say that in the first place! yaku is presumably the one who spent the most time with shibayama, training him and helping him and teaching him to grow! to connect! to become part of the team! that's YAKU'S number one pupil! how could yaku not have any faith in him? how could yaku think, even for a second, that shibayama wouldn't pull through?

also, his admission that it was lev he was worried about? which, yeah, i'm pretty sure all of us already knew — if anyone was going to be a weak link, it would be the cocky overconfident first-year brat who talked hot shit without anything to show for it. (and i'm saying this as someone who loves lev a lot, mind you.)

but what worried yaku the most was that lev didn't understand 'connection'. and while yaku could more than make up for it with his own skill, it's crazy to think that lev didn't understand it while yaku, of all people, was on the court. lev didn't understand until shibayama stepped in! and that's the crazier part: yaku couldn't connect with lev, but shibayama did. yaku and lev worked fine, yeah, but that wasn't what lev needed to understand. and that's okay! sometimes all it takes is the right person with the right words, and everything falls into place. and i think that's an absolutely brilliant and incredibly lovely lesson on how connection is also about finding the different ways to make puzzle pieces fit instead of sanding down their edges, because everyone is different and that should be something we are all understanding of!!!!

Friendly reminder: If you don’t like someone, just pretend that they don’t exist. Don’t give a fuck. They’re not worth your time babe

You're all forgetting that Kageyama can analyze a court from experience. He knows how to help his spikers because he stays behind for hours to practice extra with them. He knows so many plays because he has asked his teachers to take him through them so many times. He knows others' strategies because he studies them, reads about them, spends his whole time picking them apart. Kageyama isn't just an intuitive genius who had everything handed to him on a silver platter, Kageyama has drive and passion and he's a HARD WORKER, goddamnit, why isn't anyone saying it?
