    Summary



    The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. It is when an event takes place which is, more often than not, significant and has an unstoppable effect. It happens when an important decision has to be made that completely changes everything else.

    "Mei, don't take too long! We're only stopping for a bathroom break."

    "I know, I know." Narumiya Mei waves off his teammates' reminders as he saunters out of the bus to buy a much needed drink. The thing is, he'll come back much later than he promised and he's bringing back more than just a can of juice with him.

    Summary

    Shouyou's first day of high school is far more terrifying than it has any right to be.

    He thinks of being able to actually play on a real, powerhouse team for volleyball, rather than one cobbled together from friends and half baked promises of meat buns and helping them practice. Thinks of playing more than one match in all three years of his middle school career- one match that had ended in half an hour and been lost in straight sets.

    The thought of being a regular on an actual team is incredible, leaves him breathless and giddy, even as he sits at his polished desk, surrounded by unfamiliar faces who all seem to be familiar, but only with each other.

    It doesn’t matter, though.

    Friends are nice but volleyball is better.

    He’ll make it on Aoba Johsai's team, he has to- and if he doesn’t, well.

    He’ll prove his worth a thousand times over if he has to.

    Summary

    At the request of @bxred_college_girl on Tik Tok, who came up with most of this idea, and I just added some story.

    Basically, Hinata Shouyou... gets lost a lot.

    He can't help it, but every team ever is going to watch out for the redheaded middle blocker.

    Summary

    The Karasuno volleyball team decided that their new manager was an enigma. Shoyo positively radiated joy, yet carried the weight of years worth of trauma. He was adopted, but not an orphan. He was beautiful, but sometimes, utterly terrifying. He had a deep love for volleyball, yet had never touched a volleyball in his life. He was many things. A son, a friend, a lover, a brother, but most importantly, he was a survivor.

    And now that he’s gotten a taste of how rich living could be, he wouldn’t let anything stand in his way of experiencing everything life had to offer.

    Not even his former tormentor.
