- CONFESSIONS/REALIZATION/GETTING TOGETHER/FIRST TIME -
Every evening they walk home together, Kuro smelling of salt and suntan lotion, Kenma’s hands sore from scooping ice cream all day, and it feels nice. Peaceful.
He’s glad Kuro came, after all.
When Kuroo Tetsurou drunkenly proposes to his best friend Kozume Kenma during the midnight release of Kenma's first ever video game, Kenma doesn't think anything could be more embarrassing.
But when the proposal ends up going viral, Kenma's forced to confront feelings about his friend that he's kept locked away for a long time.
Kuroo first confesses when they're sticky-fingered, wide-eyed kids, and subsequently every day after that. Kenma takes a while to come around.
"Oh my God," Kuroo said, eyes growing wide. He slowly turned to fully face Oikawa, "I'm in love with Kenma."
Oikawa brought his tea to his mouth. "Yeah," he said, smiling through the steam rising in front of his face, "I know."
5 times Kenma confesses to Kuroo (and one time he does it for real).
“Even if it is kind of adorable, it’s also a little worrying how easily you get fevers.”
“You know, I never used to get fevers before I met you.”
“…Correlation doesn’t imply causation?” - Or, five times Kenma got a fever and the one time Kuroo did.
But somehow, against all odds, Kuroo always is.
"Please, Kozume-kun?" the third girl says, now that Kenma has seemingly checked into the conversation. "What does Kuroo-senpai like?"
what...
"Volleyball," Kenma says shortly, ignoring their annoyed little sighs, and returns his expression to the screen. He's died. Figures.
After that he starts paying attention. More attention to the social aspects, at least. Kenma always pays a fair percentage of his attention to Kuroo. He sort of demands it. And. Kuroo does get a lot of female attention.
- DISEASE -
When Kenma was 13, he swore to himself that he would never, ever get star tear disease.
Three years later, he met Hinata Shouyou.
Kuroo sees Kenma with glasses for the first time.
Kenma is terrified of having Hanahaki Disease at ten years old, so he opts for the only known procedure that will save his life.
Kuroo can't accept that.
Or:
Kenma loses the ability to love again, and Kuroo refuses to take that laying down.
- DYSTOPIAN -
The man standing before him shuts the door, kicking off his shoes. Then he removes his helmet, and it’s Kuroo, it’s Kuroo. It’s Kuroo.
Kenma rushes forward, leaping onto his best friend before Kuroo has a chance to set down the helmet. He drops it with a soft curse, but then his arms are around Kenma, and he’s holding him close, as Kenma presses kiss after kiss against the side of Kuroo’s head.
“I almost lost you,” he whispers desperately. “I-I thought I did.”
- EMOTIONAL HURT/COMFORT (Depression, Anxiety, etc.) -
Just a bundle words of Kuroo taking care of Depressed Kenma. (My own summary bcs it has no summary</3)
“You’ll wait for me?”
Kuroo ruffled Kenma’s then jet-black hair. “Always.”
Chasing. That was the word he was looking for. He felt like he was always chasing after Kuroo, and sometimes, times like this, he felt like his best friend was completely out of reach.
Kenma was just waiting for Kuroo to leave him behind. Kuroo was just waiting for Kenma to find someone more interesting.

Day 1: Comfort
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.)
Kuroo is moving away tomorrow.
It’s when they are sleeping, like this, and the world is just this room and the two of them, Kenma listening to Kuroo snoring softly, just friends becomes unbearable.
Kuroo, Kenma – the road to recovery is long and arduous, but they make it through in the end.
Kuroo had always been there, and Kenma, rather stupidly, assumed he always would be.
How boring it would be to love someone perfect.
- FANTASY -
Everyone always tells you not to give your name to a faerie, but nobody ever told Tetsurou not to give his heart.
Alternatively: How to bargain with a faerie and accidentally fall in love.
- GETTING BACK TOGETHER -
Kenma’s head is spinning too much at this rare display of something like affection from Akaashi for him to really process what exactly Akaashi is saying. He hears that Bokuto will be selecting his own best man, but he doesn’t think too much into it. In retrospect, he definitely should have.
"Yeah,” Kenma manages, and barely recognizes the sound of his own shaky voice. “Yeah, of course.”
And, with those words, Kozume Kenma signs off on his own death certificate. / In which ex-boyfriends Kenma and Kuroo are Akaashi and Bokuto's best men.

- SOULMATE -
Once he pieces together why it looked so damn familiar--that’s when he felt anxiety creep up his spine, mixed with many other emotions. Like Denial. Because he knew exactly who had the matching mark, and he didn’t need much confirmation.
It was a small black cat silhouette, turned to the facing the left with its tail curled under it, black as the inky sky.
Just like the one Kuroo had.
