Crushes suck. Surely there must be a punchline.
But when he sees that orange-haired shrimp staring at him from the gym doors, eyes wide and betrayed, he feels a vague sense of premonition.
Kageyama’s actions feel familiar, like echoes of something he vaguely knows – not from experience, obviously, but from observation, from expectation. His mind keeps wandering back to the conversation between Daichi and Suga; it really would look, does look, to the untrained eye, like Kageyama is – for want of a better word – smitten.
“Don’t be silly, bakageyama. It’s just a minor link,” Hinata waves his hands and laughs. “We won't even know your favourite colour.”
“Then what's the point?” Kageyama turns, almost viciously, onto him.
A long moment passes between them, and Hinata watches, starstruck, as Heitor’s eyes linger on Nice’s silhouette from across the venue. His voice is deep, rich, all encompassing. “Some people change your life just by being in it, and you don’t want to let that go.”
Huh, Hinata thinks grandly.
Kageyama Tobio is the nineteen-year-old who makes waves at the 2016 Rio Olympics, playing for Japan. Hinata gets a part-time job as a delivery boy in Rio De Janeiro. It’s convenient and frighteningly easy, at least after he learns to read the street signs.
Hinata Shouyou's parents were two of the greatest superheroes to have ever lived, and all he wants is to follow in their footsteps. But when Hinata gets the chance to attend a university specifically made for training superheroes, he realizes that this goal may be farther away than he'd thought.
Crushes are supposed to be fun, so Hinata must be doing it wrong.
He looks straight at Hinata, and Hinata jerks and turns red, wondering if maybe Kageyama knew he was daydreaming about something as stupid as the way Kageyama talks to him during a game. But then Kageyama just points at him and says, "You'd better get in, too." Hinata, stupid, naive, idiot that he is, grins wide and nods and says, "Yeah!"
The minute Kageyama walks into the gym and sees Hinata hovering eight feet over the nets he knows he’s screwed.
Tobio runs by himself every day. Even though he can't shake off that awful feeling that something's closing in on him, he still does it. It's habit now. When he gets a phone call that Hinata Shouyou is thinking of coming to Italy, Tobio feels like he has to run even faster.
Ginger gives him a strange look before snorting loudly. “God, you’re weird,” he says, voice shaking with barely suppressed laughter. “Do you normally harass people for games and ask them bizarre questions or am I just special?”
"The scary Ravenclaw Chaser," Kenma clarified, as Shoyo shifted on the bench. "I'm pretty sure he's trying to stare you down two ways to Sunday."
Hinata Shouyou is not chosen as the Hogwarts Champion for the Triwizard Tournament.
Kageyama Tobio is a professional racing driver, the new rookie sensation who's about to take home the Piston Cup in his first year.
Hinata falls in love his fifth year, somehow. And it all starts like this:
There’s this boy in Slytherin who he always argues with – it’s been this way since forever.
Hinata Shouyou can control the weather, and Kageyama doesn’t mind getting swept up in his storm.
At the beginning of his last year at Karasuno High School, Hinata Shouyou starts a list and calls it THINGS TO DO BEFORE GRADUATION, all with high hopes that he’ll be able to complete it before his time runs out.
Hinata Shouyou is not chosen as the Hogwarts Champion for the Triwizard Tournament. He doesn't battle a dragon, or swim into the deepest part of the lake, or enter a dangerous maze. Instead, he cheers on for Kageyama Tobio, and learns what it means to be in love with your best friend. And maybe, he wins something even better altogether.
“If you are familiar with the world of D-1 volleyball, chances are you’ve heard the names Hinata Shouyou and Kageyama Tobio. Both twenty-four-year-old athletes are famous for their skill and athletic prowess, but they’ve recently become household names for their intense rivalry.
Early this year, Hinata Shouyou signed onto the MSBY Black Jackals as a wing spiker after a two-year stint in Brazil, playing beach volleyball. He was an unknown in the V-League, but he quickly proved himself with his defensive skill and incredible jumping height and speed.
It wasn’t until the fateful Schweiden Adlers vs. MSBY Black Jackals match just yesterday that viewers came to the realization that Hinata Shouyou was the long-awaited rival of Kageyama Tobio.”
In which Kageyama is tasked with joining a beach volleyball game in Brazil shortly after Team Japan's defeat at the Olympics. By some miracle, he finds a Japanese player called Hinata, and life is never quite the same after that.
Hinata loved being the god of love. Nothing made him happier than watching people find their soulmates, especially when they were true loves. But when one cruel conversation causes Hinata to run from his responsibilities, the results to humanity is troublesome. With no other choice, Ukai sends to Hinata to earth with a mission: Help fix five soulmate bonds hanging in the balance, or lose his title as the god of love. Simple, right?
Not when he's only got 30 days to do it.
Both your deaths in this universe have failed. “Failed…” Kageyama echoes. The word seems to hurt him. “How can you fail at dying?” Hinata asks, incredulous. Luckily you have an infinite selection of universes, with an extensive number of lifetimes, still remaining. Until you can save one another, you will never grow old.
Kageyama is 22 and stupid and Hinata Shoyou is 23 and not a boy anymore.
Move in with me.
Kageyama’s hands go numb and the earth has nothing to offer but a shuddering sigh.

He was aware of the itch he’d feel before he shook his head or scrunched his nose. He recognized the impulse to move, but he didn’t realize how compulsive the behaviors had become. He had to shake his head. He had to scrunch his nose. He had to shrug his shoulders over, and over, and over.
And Kageyama could pretend like he didn’t care one way or the other all he wanted, Shouyou wasn’t going to let him pout his way through winter holidays with that grim-reaper look on his face.
in which hinata just wants to finish his report but can't because some kageyama guy from the 9th floor refuses to help him out. emails are exchanged, several people are Cc'd, escalations are made, and office romance ensues. eventually.
Hinata hates the smell of coffee. He hates coffee in general. He doesn’t get the craze about it, really. It tastes like tar to him, especially the black kind, and it makes him feel weird and jumpy inside. Hinata, as it is, works in a coffee shop.
"That's your half and this is my half, so keep yourself and all your crap on your side and I'll do the same."
Hinata stared at him in disbelief.
"I think about your collarbones in Calculus," he says, and then waits for death to be swift.
Kageyama and Hinata are married. The press seem to think that they’re hostile rivals who despise each other.
Kageyama doesn't know why Hinata's face rubs him the wrong way—it just does. So one day, in an attempt to pinpoint exactly what it is that makes Hinata's Shouyou's fucking face so fucking annoying, he begins to catalogue all the things that really tick him off.
When Hinata Shouyou is 13 years old, his village is raided by pirates.
Shouyou’s first time experiencing love — real love, romantic love, the kind that makes your fingertips numb and your head spin — was smooth petals pouring from his throat.
In where Hinata is constantly overwhelmed by the metallic blue in Kageyama's eyes and Kageyama can only click his tongue at Hinata's inability to be subtle (while blushing rouge but that has nothing to do with Hinata, not at all).
Kageyama is a crowchild, tasked with carrying the souls of the dead to their final resting place. The first time he meets Hinata is when the boy is on his deathbed. It seems like an ordinary encounter, though Hinata proves that he is anything but, sending them both on a journey of life, death, friendship, and love.
