Summary:
“I wasn’t the one who sat in the wrong class on his first day of school and didn’t realize it until lunch.”
“That was one time compared to your tens. And you’re avoiding the real issue here. What are you scared of?”
This time, Oikawa considers his answer a moment longer, and says, somewhat hushed, “I’m selfish.”
Hajime snorts. “Tell me something I don’t know.”
“Hey! I’m trying to have a heart-to-heart here!”
The times Hajime runs after Oikawa, throughout the years.
(And maybe the other way around, too.)

4.
Hajime feels watched, the hair on the back of his neck bristling.
He turns around, not at all trying to suppress an irked grunt, crisp summer grass heavy with morning dew crackling underneath his feet. “Are you a creep or what?” asks Hajime, pointing the head of his butterfly net at the intruder.
From his place slightly behind a tree, said intruder just widens his eyes and flaps his mouth open, as if he’s actually surprised he’s been found out. Then he pouts, walking around the trunk to stand in front of his hiding—no, spying—spot, chin held up to the air. “I am not,” he huffs out, mostly indignant.
“You’ve been following me,” Hajime counters. “Yesterday, too. That’s really creepy, so you’re a creep.”
The boy’s cheeks redden, obvious on his paler skin even in the dawn’s light. “That’s because you’re so slow!” He plants both hands on his waist haughtily, a buck-toothed grin breaking out on his face. “I just keep running into you, slowpoke.”
It’s Hajime’s turn to go slack-jawed, but he snaps it shut and grits his teeth. Hajime is an adventurer, and he is not slow. “You—”
The way Hajime growls it out does not seem to scare the boy. Instead, he sticks his tongue out, pulls down the skin below one eye with a nail-bitten finger, and blows a grating raspberry.
Such is a testament of how annoying Oikawa Tooru is that Hajime, stubborn but oh what a good child Hajime, chases him and his equally annoying giggles until hours later the sun reaches its noon perch and ends up beating them both to the ground.
(Hajime is not slow; with this firm and surely tested belief, he just points out that Oikawa’s a bit taller and thus has the unfair advantage. Oikawa laughs again from where he lies sprawled on his back beside Hajime, pokes at him with his toes, and loudly mentions just how much in denial Hajime is.
The race continues soon after that.) Continue reading on AO3.

IwaOi Volleyball Week
So me and @mauville2 were chatting about the DaiSuga Volleyball Week that I’m running (more information here), and she mentioned that she wanted to write some angst. But we can’t write angst about DaiSuga, it’s too sweet of a pairing. I mentioned that maybe she could take the prompt and wite some angst with a different pairing.
One thing led to another, and here we are! DaiSuga week hasn’t even started yet, and I am already trying to get another Haikyuu!! pairing week up and running.
I am proud to announce that I was (again) incapable of controlling my impulse control, and am now going to organise the IwaOi Volleyball Week. The name is practically the same, and the tag and blog names will also be very similar to the DaiSuga name, since I’m lazy and can’t be bothered to come up with a new name.
SO. When will the week happen? Again, me and @mauville2 (who now has the official title of Enabler) talked about when the week should happen, and came to the conclusion that the next two months are too busy, what with Halloween (and DaiSuga week), Thanksgiving, finals week, Christmas and New Year.
The week will start on the 9th of January and run until the 15th. It’s a pretty empty week, except that the Golden Globes in on the 15th (let’s hope the last day of IwaOi week doesn’t get buried)
Tag: #iwaoivolleyballweek
Blog: @iwaoivolleyballweek
Rules:
1) Use the tag, and to be extra sure your works get noticed, please tag the blog as well.
2) Please use the appropriate tags for potentially tiggering works (NSFW, gore, blood, etc)
3) Also, make sure to tag both the day and the prompt you decide to use.
Extra Information:
1) All types of works are accepted (cosplay, photography, or even a song/playlist).
2) Crossovers are allowed, as long as it fits the prompt and it stars the IwaOi pairing.
3) Late admissions are accepted, I understand if something gets in the way or you just don’t have time.
4) For those of you that are new to the fandom and don’t know what pairing this refers to, the IwaOi ship name is short for Iwaizumi Hajime and Oikawa Tooru from the sports anime Haikyuu!!
5) *Edit* It has been brought to my attention that using the Human Trafficking as a prompt, no matter my good intentions, would not be appropriate for a pairing week in which the characters in question are underage volleyball players. I have removed the prompt and replaced it with a new one.
For those of you that have reblogged this post, please delete the old version as to not confuse others. Thanks you for your consideration, and I apologive if I have offended anybody with my actions.
Prompts:
Day 1: New Years / Christmas week
Day 2: Food / Dance
Day 3: Follow / Ocean
Day 4: Eyes / Space
Day 5: Supernatural / Worth It
Day 6: Reach / Bottomless
Day 7: Celebrity / Free day
As you can see, on day seven you can either pick the celebrity prompt (in honor of the Golden Globes) or just do whatever you want.
I hope you all join us in celebration of this wonderful pairing that has inspired so many people! Anybody is welcome, it doesn’t matter what you do or that your so called ‘skill-level’ is, anything and everything will be appreciated, loved and reblogged!
Again, IwaOi Volleyball Week starts on the 9th of January and ends on the 15th of January. If you’re a bit late, that doesn’t matter, it will end up on the blog either way!
