Hello friends...I'm struggling a lot these days, so my apologies for not sharing as much as I'd like. However, I do have a little something for #WiPWednesday that I'll hopefully be able to post as a thread starting tomorrow 💕

Who could it be visiting the school book fair?? 🤔🦉🤔

“Okay, children.” Suzuki-sensei, the school librarian, gently calls out to get their attention. “You have 45 minutes today to pick out your books. If you need help figuring out the cost, you can ask me, or any of the parents that are here volunteering.” She gestures around the room; Mio recognizes the parents of several of her friends, who are all waving and calling out their parents’ names. The parents smile and wave back, much quieter than their kids—probably because they were told not to make a scene, Mio reasons.

“Everyone?” Suzuki-sensei says, and the children snap back to attention. “I’m going to let you go in a minute, okay? Remember that the discount table is over here, and if you want to purchase manga…”

“You have to come over here!” booms a voice, and Mio and the rest of her classmates look up. Striding through the door, and over to the manga table, is a tall, broad man, with spiky silver hair and a beaming grin. He’s wearing the red uniform of the Japanese National Volleyball Team, but even if he wasn’t, Mio would know him anywhere.

You have no incentive. You know I’ll read it anyway.

If you’re looking for something emotional and angsty to read, feel free to check out my sad Akaashi fic.

Chapter 7 update today! ❤️

Akaashi took a breath, willing the rest of the words to come out. He’d been on the opposite side of this conversation enough times to know how it was supposed to go. Those words, spoken by Bokuto at seventeen, nineteen, twenty-two, had hurt enough to linger, timbre and pitch and intensity all burned into the worn-down edges of his memory: Akaashi, I’m seeing someone!

“Bokuto-san,” he said, his own voice hoarse and cracking. “I’ve been seeing someone.”

--

When Akaashi is pursued by one of his literary idols, he wonders if it's finally time to move on from his unrequited love for his best friend.

Hello friends--I'm so pleased to share an update for my #BokuAka sorcery AU!

In this chapter of "A Prince (Re)Born)" (E; link ⤵️), Bokuto meets more of the magic users in his kingdom. And later, he and Akaashi argue over sleeping arrangements 😉

A Prince (Re)Born
by: Fawn_Eyed_Girl, kalcia

Summary:

For as long as Prince Bokuto Kōtarō can remember, he’s been told that magic is forbidden in the kingdom of Fukurōdani, and that anyone who dares to practice it shall be exiled…or worse.

And while Kōtarō doesn’t really believe all that’s said about magic users, he feels torn between his personal feelings and his obligation to the kingdom.

Then, one day, everything changes, and Prince Kōtarō finds himself alone and on the run, friendless in a society where he needs friends, more than ever.

Luckily for him, he finds a friend in a familiar face…
One with sapphire eyes, dark, curly hair…

And a secret that will turn everything Kōtarō has ever been taught upside down.

With amazing art by kalcia ✨

Aubs 🦉 @darthbkak.bsky.social · 14d

I knew there had to be some overlap with bokuaka fans! This has been so fun to write! Made myself fall in love with Kiyoomi while writing Coach Bo 🤭

Aubs 🦉 @darthbkak.bsky.social · 14d

I know this isn’t why anyone follows me, but I’ve been writing some self-indulgent #atsuomi royal omegaverse (prince kiyoomi, mercenary atsumu) to cheer myself up between sad Akaashi chapters!

Take this wip snippet!

Has he mentioned anything else about marriage proposals?”

Years of experience keep Kiyoomi’s own sharp scent from souring further. Luckily, he’s known Motoya long enough that it doesn't take more than a quick glance for him to communicate his no.

“It’s coming,” Kiyoomi says, wincing a little as Motoya’s hand catches on a particularly unruly curl. “Someone from his pack of sycophants will be desperate for a favour, and I’ll be the bargaining chip.”

“Maybe it will be someone kind,” Motoya says, letting some of Kiyoomi’s hair slip through his fingers. “Someone ruled by his heart, rather than a lust for power or coin. Someone who will take one look at you and know that you can never be parted.”

Kiyoomi can tell from the bright spark in his eyes that there’s a part of his cousin that actually believes such nonsense.

Though perhaps for him, it will be true. Motoya’s sweet natured and soft, with just enough pedigree to be a desirable match without the sort of expectations that come along with being a member of the royal family. He will have his pick of suitors, and his parents, excessively doting since the day he was born, will never force a choice upon him.

Kiyoomi, meanwhile, will be pawned off to the highest bidder; any chance that he would have some choice in the matter died along with his mother.

“There.” Kiyoomi’s braid crown is immaculate, threaded through with pieces of greenery that must have been secreted away in Toya’s pockets. “It looks perfect.”

It does, Kiyoomi begrudgingly admits, pull focus from some of his harsher features. The long line of his neck looks almost delicate, his dark eyes somehow softened. That’s the real reason Motoya is here, Kiyoomi is sure: to try to mold him into something meek and elegant. Into someone who can be passed off and bred, securing whatever line his brother deems worthy of an alliance.

“Maybe now we can—”

Motoya’s suggestion is lost in the sound of a heavy knock. He hurries over to the door, pulling it open to receive the messenger on the other side.

“You’re wanted in the King’s Hall,” the harried young man says, sweat prickling his hairline as he does his best to mask the heavy rise and fall of his breath. Kiyoomi had chosen rooms at the top of the highest tower to discourage visitors, and it gives him a small thrill every time he gets to watch someone suffer the consequences of daring to bother him. “At once!”

I'm so pleased to share the first chapter of my new #KuroKen fake dating story, "(Your) Love's a Circus" (E; link ⤵️). It's a fic for @yamper.bsky.social as part of @fandomtrumpshate.bsky.social

I hope you enjoy this one! I had a LOT of fun with it

(Your) Love's a Circus

by: Fawn_Eyed_Girl

Summary:

Kenma is tired of all the rumors circulating about who he’s dating, who he’s not dating, who’s cheating on him, etc. He just wants to game and stream and make money! He didn’t sign up to be the CEO of the social media drama circuit, too.

Thanks to Kenma’s fame, Tetsurō has found himself in the camera’s eye more than once. Tetsurō doesn’t mind (especially if he’s the lucky person dating Kenma in the story!), but he sees the toll this is taking on his best friend/secret crush.

So, he makes a suggestion:

"Since everyone’s speculating about our relationship anyway, why don’t we pretend to give them what they want?”

He didn’t expect Kenma to agree.

Nor did he expect fake dating Kenma to feel so… real.
