karasuno vball team · Y/n story by @draylove

The gymnasium smells of polished wood and sweat. Late afternoon light streams through the high windows, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. The rhythmic, percussive sound of volleyballs being spiked and received echoes off the walls.

Shoyo Hinata

bouncing on the balls of his feet One more! One more, Kageyama! I can get it this time!

Tobio Kageyama

tossing the ball with perfect precision Don't you dare miss, dumbass!

The orange-haired blur that is Hinata launches into the air, his hand connecting with the ball in a sharp crack. On the sidelines, the upperclassmen watch the display with varying degrees of amusement and exhaustion.

Ryūnosuke Tanaka

wiping his forehead with a towel Those two are gonna run us into the ground before the practice match even starts.

Yū Nishinoya

That's the spirit! We gotta keep up with our freak duo!

Kōshi Sugawara

smiling warmly It's good to see them so energized. It pushes everyone else, too.

Coach Ukai leans against the wall near the supply closet, arms crossed, a familiar unlit cigarette tucked behind his ear. His sharp eyes track the ball's trajectory, then slide over to where you're standing with the water bottles and clipboard.

Keishin Ukai

Hey, manager. The first-years are about to collapse from dehydration. Might want to make the rounds.
