Wanda would rather let half of the population of the universe die to save a Microwave Oven.
a sweeter ending to the song
Hola!
I have wanted to make this post for ages (and the reason this blog was created) and am really excited to share some of my favourite Haikyuu fics with everyone!
I will be putting a ‘★’ next to the ones that i highly recommend and love with my heart and soul.
Lets get started!
In Transit - by Mysecretfanmoments
Hinata finds that he likes standing close to Kageyama on buses and trains. It doesn’t mean anything–probably. Maybe.
(complete)
baby, i can give you wings - by Metis_Ink
In which there are superpowers, cats, rainstorms, realizations, split-second jealousy, embarrassing volleyparents, killer whales, electric Kuroos, unstable emotions, bad romance movie mentions, some angst, some fluff, but mostly a lot of awkward high schoolers.
The minute Kageyama walks into the gym and sees Hinata hovering eight feet over the nets he knows he’s screwed.
(complete)
★ fake it, make it - by zadderlee
“Because Kageyama is already dating someone!”
“Really? Who?”
“Me!” Hinata shouts suddenly, grabbing Kageyama’s hand as an afterthought and grinning triumphantly, like he’s somehow missed the implications of what he’s just done. Kageyama is going to kill him.
(ongoing)
Oblivious To Love - by Karumasa
Yellow filled Hinata’s vision. The inside of his bag was stuffed full with bananas.
Hinata was terrified.
(complete)
★ Fake Wedding March - by tsukkkiii (becauseitisbitter)
Minutes before Daichi is going to introduce his fiance to his parents, he gets dumped via text. So while he sits in front of his parents, trying to figure out what to say, an angel appears next to him.
or: Suga pretends to be Daichi’s fiance to save his ass.
(complete)
forever is a long time but i wouldn’t mind spending it with you - by Interconnected_3
“What else?” Daichi blinks. “What else is there? Do you want me to tell you how you like your coffee?” He grins teasingly. “I don’t know, how do I like my coffee? By the way, you’re missing something.” “Cream and two and a half sugars- wait, I’m missing something?” “Yup,” Suga says. “You forgot to mention that we’re dating.” “Well, god, Suga, judging from how we’ve been kissing and holding hands for three years and in this bed for the past nine hours since last night, I couldn’t possibly tell.”
in which daichi finally gets the day off and teaches a romantically-frustrated suga how to be honest with himself. extreme fluff
(complete)
★ Black and Blue - by MTrash (Makaria)
Daichi’s new (temporary) neighbor is not only stunningly beautiful but also funny, friendly, with just a touch of mysterious.
Naturally, Daichi freaks the fuck out.
(AU where everyone lives in the same building and everyone is gay)
(complete)
i do (cherish you) - by gabstar
The first time Daichi suggests it, it’s a joke.
“Sugawara Koushi,” he says solemnly. He’s bent on one knee, the floor is still sticky with sweat post-practice. He offers up the lost ring, found while mopping off gym floors. “Will you marry me?”
((Five times Daichi asks Suga to marry him, plus once where he finally, finally says yes.))
(complete)
The Great Yamaguchi-Tsukishima Split (Capitalization Necessary) - by WyYeuw
“But no, the current situation isn’t normal. This situation requires the full attention of the team. No, what’s really concerning this time around, is that Yamaguchi is the one ignoring Tsukishima.” Yamaguchi confesses. Tsukishima fucks up—like, really fucks up. The volleyball club notices and loses a week’s worth of practice.
(complete)
★ Do you see what I see? - by superpapershark
Three times Tsukishima wonders what colour Yamaguchi’s eyes are, and the one time he finds out.
(complete)
★ Try This On For Size - by CloudMonsta
A lot changed for Yamaguchi Tadashi over the course of high school. He started trying on dresses, for one.
(complete)
Blood - by darkbluebox
Words like "Muggle-born” and “Pure-blood” don’t mean a lot when you’re still a child, but everyone has to grow up sooner or later.
(complete)
Setting Aside Your Pride and Your Prejudice - by sugamama_crowshi
“Oh, Pride and Prejudice?” an unfamiliar voice asked. Noya was pulled from his search as the man before him spoke. He blinked up at him a few times. Then he stared. Nishinoya’s mouth was probably hanging open slightly. He couldn’t help it. Before him stood the single most gorgeous man Nishinoya Yuu had every laid eyes on.
Nishinoya Yuu experiences love at first sight at the library. Azumane Asahi is excited to think that another Japanese person has heard of Jane Austen. Through a series of lies and café meetups the two begin to learn more about each other. And fall for each other too.
(complete)
★ I’d Like You Anyway - by KuriKuri
Yū believes in soulmates, but that doesn’t mean he believes in them.
(Or: An AU in which any permanent marking you get on your body - like a tattoo - also appears on your soulmate. And Yū gets a lot of tattoos.)
(complete)
★ come and take a walk on the wild side - by Authoress
There’s a bloodcurdling scream of terror, and then Noya remembers that, right, there’s a new person moving into the apartment next to him. Oops.
(in which Noya is accidentally the Worst Neighbor Ever, Asahi loses twenty years of his life to stress, and Rolling Thunder is the star of the show.)
(complete)
Under the Radar - by lilien passe (lilienpasse)
Two weeks after Asahi rejoins the team, Noya finds himself starting to slip during practice. Missed receives, floor burns, the whole nine yards. But when Tanaka points out the possible cause, Noya’s hard-pressed to believe him. There’s no way someone as dopey yet implausibly-competent as Asahi could be the cause of all his distress. After all, Noya doesn’t worry about much beyond the court, and he certainly doesn’t hold grudges. Right? (Semi-AU)
(complete)
★ Saltwater Room - by hipster-yams (madamedicelia)
Kenma had been perfectly happy just attending class half-asleep, secretly practicing cello, and occasionally getting his hand stuck in the vending machine but certain people refuse to let his quiet bliss go on and force him to think about everything he’s been trying to hide away in the depths of his mind for years.
(complete)
★ Water and Brimstone - by aetherdrive
Kuroo and Kenma are assigned to go undercover as a result of Bokuto’s awkward attempt at playing matchmaker… but their simple case turns out to be a lot more dangerous than they expected.
(complete)
[A/N: this one is a sequel to another fic Crisis Converted (which is also amazing), i will also link the whole series which features BokuAka, KuroKen and IwaOi here]
Show A Little Faith - by minijhi
“Why are you sending me a singing Valentine telegram?“ Kenma asks, mouth flattened. "It’s six months until Valentine’s Day.”
“I bought a dwarf over the summer to use as cupid.” Kuroo says. “I figured he could use some practice.”
-
Presenting Kenma as the Boy-Who-Lived, whose living becomes a lot more interesting when Ravenclaw Prince Kuroo Tetsurou starts sending him singing telegrams about defeating the Dark Lord.
(complete)
In The Dark Of The Night - by dgalerab
The Tokyo training camp has to use an older sports center while their usual one is renovated. Kenma is used to paying attention to the minor details, and the minor details in this place don’t seem very friendly.
(Or: Kenma notices an angry ghost before anyone else does, and it’s not a very good thing for Kenma.)
(complete)
the truth is out there - by shizuoh
"I work at NASA,” Hajime said, setting down his coffee.
Oikawa immediately jumped up and slammed his palms against the table. “I’ll suck your dick if you tell me about the aliens.”
(complete)
★ love me like you do - by crossbelladonna
Iwaizumi’s family line is cursed to die a year after they fall in love. Admittedly, he knows falling for his childhood friend may be a mistake. But he did and he passed and Death got what he wants that is until Oikawa makes a trade—his memories for Iwaizumi’s life.
(complete)
The PDA jar - by Poteto
“What is that thing for?”
“I’m glad you asked, captain. This… is the Public Display of Affection jar. Or PDA jar for short.”
“Now whenever you do something that may hurt our children’s innocence, you’ll have to put money in the jar as a punishment.“
(complete)
★ equilibrium - by laconicGhost \
Hajime sighs, leaning against the stove as he turns to face Tooru, who’s still peeking up at him from under his arm. He purses his lips and ignores the heat in his cheeks as he rolls a stiff shoulder.
“What?”
Tooru hides his face when he realizes he’s been caught, laughing a little bit to cover up his embarrassment. “I’m happy, Iwa-chan,” he says cheerfully.
(complete)
★ Sincerely Yours - by quinnlocke [Multi.]
Saturday detention isn’t normally a place you go in order to find the answers to your problems
It’s where you go when you’ve fucked up bad enough you have to lose an entire Saturday to make up for what you’ve done.
The Prince and The Criminal were caught cutting class. The Outsider cursed out his Shakespeare professor. The Jock and The Brain got into a fist fight.
And the Birthday Boy, he’s not even supposed to be here…
(complete)
★ call me maybe - by totooru [MatsuMaki]
Hanamaki texts the wrong number when trying to extort tips out of Oikawa in order to defeat Iwaizumi in arm wrestling, and then continues to text the witty stranger who had answered.
(complete)
[A/N: this fic is freakin’ hilarious]
Love It If We Made It - by mangetsu_san [KyouHaba]
Yahaba locks himself up in his room after their loss to Karasuno, so Kyoutani decides to take him on a little adventure.
(complete)
Mixed Signals - by snoqualmie [KyouHaba]
Feelings are definitely a thing he’s having. Kyoutani is really sweet. He’s family oriented and he prefers novels with female leads and he’s in all honors classes. He kind of has a big head, totally has a big smile, definitely has a big heart. His eyes are nice, he’s got that dimple. Yahaba groans and rubs his fists into his eyes.
(complete)
The Lost & the Found - by AJ (anna_panda) [Multi]
"Being lost is worth the being found.”
Hinata thinks he finally knows his way around the castle, Kenma knows he definitely doesn’t and it’s a miracle Iwaizumi hasn’t thrown Oikawa off the Astronomy Tower yet. Just another year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry.
(ongoing)
it’s easier for you to let me go - by burritosong [YakuLev]
the one with the proposal
(complete)
1800-GET-REKT - by doggoneit [KuroTsukki]
“I see you like it Between the Sheets.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Your drink. It’s good stuff but I’m more of a Blowjob kinda guy.”
(complete)
★ Crumbling Foundations - by Captain_Hughes_ZU, ToshiChan [Gen]
Things like this didn’t happen in Karasuno. It was just a school. Learning, making friends, taking exams and playing volleyball. Lots of volleyball. So it was really nothing out of the ordinary for the team to be in the gym on a simple Monday morning, training away. But two men walking into the gym with guns, one demanding to take his son? That wasn’t ordinary, not at all…
(complete)
And that’s a wrap, i really enjoyed putting this together! Got a bit of nostalgia from when i first started getting into Haikyuu.
I hope you enjoy reading the fics i recommended, i still have heaps more so look out for a second part!
Anyways,
Au revoir!
Summary: Castiel is a seemingly normal kid: junior student class president, son of two loving parents. Dean’s a loner who’s wise beyond his years. The two meet after Castiel starts tutoring Dean’s brother Sam? Will they get they get their happily ever after, or will they let the world - and themselves- tear them apart?
aziraphale always rejects crowley first, it’s part of their dance, part of their routine. crowley suggests the arrangement as neither doing anything, aziraphale rejects it, crowley reframes it as helping each other, aziraphale agrees. crowley asks for holy water, aziraphale rejects him, crowley reframes as dangerous for him, aziraphale agrees. crowley suggests they raise the antichrist together, aziraphale rejects it, crowley reframes it as thwarting evil, aziraphale agrees.
crowley suggests they run away together, aziraphale rejects it. crowley reframes it - hell knows it was me! and aziraphale rejects it again.
crowley had every reason to believe that aziraphale was going to give in eventually. that’s the dance. i’m sorry, whatever i said, i didn’t mean it. now get in the car. he’s panicked, but he is still trying to complete the dance. crowley might have expected the bandstand break-up as par for the course, but crowley doesn’t really understand that aziraphale is really, actually rejecting him until he tries a second time, because he’s always had to try a second time. but aziraphale says no. maybe for the first time ever, aziraphale gets to the end of the dance, and he still says no. you can see crowley finally realize it too:
he looks like he’s been shot. i suppose in some way he has.
Joey Tribbiani could probably write a poorly organized but thorough, detailed, and heartfelt essay on why he loves Rachel Green, with specific examples centered around the woman she becomes over the course of the show, and Ross would just be like "because she's Rachel"
u know that feeling deep in your tummy where u just dont feel comfy and u feel sad and sort of want to cry but not about anything specific its like your entire body is just upset and unnerved all the way to the core almost like ur just longing for something but dont know what
About an hour ago, I was in Walmart looking for my conditioner because today is wash day for my hair. As I’m looking for my product, this older white lady approaches me and she says, “Excuse me, miss. Please don’t be offended by this.” And usually when white people tell me not to be offended, 9 times out of 10, whatever they are about to say is going to be offensive af.
Anyway, she follows it up with, “My husband and I just recently won our custody battle with our foster daughter and she means the world to us. She’s a beautiful African American girl and her hair looks a lot like yours. But I’m afraid because I don’t know what to do with her hair. It’s a lot different from mines and our other children and we are at a total loss. I’ve tried looking up the YouTube videos and my husband went to the braiding shops so they can teach him how to properly braid her hair, but he’s still pretty new and it will be a while before he gets used to it. Do you have any tips you can give me? If you don’t have the time, it’s okay, really! I just needed a little advice because I want her to look beautiful.”
Y’all. swear I almost started crying on aisle 6. So for the last 30 minutes, I spent my time talking to her and what products to use and how to properly detangle and comb her hair with the proper tools and what not to do with natural hair. And I showed her a bunch of easier to follow natural hair tutorials on YouTube and saved them for her. (I also had to create a YouTube account for her so she could save it for later.) but omfg, she was so sweet, and I could tell that she listened to every single thing I had to say and she took little notes on her little notepad.
And what really filled my heart was the fact that her husband actually taking classes from African braiding shops. And she showed me a picture of him wearing a little sweater vest and loafers in a little shop surrounded by beautiful black women showing him how to braid black hair and even the lady he’s braiding on is guiding his hands. And omfg. Bless these old white people and their black daughter who I know have new loving parents because they are willing to step out of their comfort zone just to make her feel and look beautiful.
I really hope our paths cross again one day, Mrs Cicilia. 💖💕
