the d0ujin overall is akas recalling stories about him and bkt to bkt’s niece, a nice trip down memory lane, and these stories are lighthearted and peaceful with its own ups and downs but still stories one can tell a kid about, i just really love this sort of writing

i finished the d0ujin 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

💔

the writer’s akas characterization is just closer on par to what i imagine akas as, a very simple, grounded unromanticized characterization

i still have one more chpt to read but @ the writer, even tho the full d0ujin is years old and published online, i loved the story and characterization so much, i would absolutely buy a physical copy of it to keep if it wasn’t sold out

the writer does a really beautiful job of focusing on companionship, how marriage and kids don’t have to be a goal for everyone as exemplified by akas’ parents or bkt’s older sisters, it’s serious and yet mostly lighthearted at the same time

one of my fav parts of the story is akas parents being accepting and supportive of his relationship w bkt and more importantly, akas’ dad telling him they don’t care about not having their family name carried on but instead they want him to cherish his given name living his life with happiness

🥺

i’m back reading the d0ujin and the chapters about bkt’s family thru akas’ only child pov contrasting akas’ family is so beautifully written

all st/ar weekend az 🥹

bla/nca led the team in turnovers at the beginning of the season to become the only player with zero TO this game 😌

i saw someone say bla/nca only does well bc she feeds off sa/rah and az's gravity on the floor but i disagree, she's doing a good job facilitating with both sa/rah and az on the bench this qrt

BLA/NCA REVERSE AT THE BUZZER

az left open and spiking in that 3pt is a mood LMFAO

big three

ge/no looked pissed and immediately walked off to the locker room at the buzzer and i cant blame him that was some sloppy 🏀

bla/nca is really unafraid to drive to the rim, she just flew through four defenders on her 😂

😌

omg……… it sounds like they accidentally collided into each other ☹️

p*x1v says this is a 2.5 hr reading that i do not have the time to finish right now but i’m really loving it so far 🥺

i truly appreciate this writer for capturing akas’ silly oddball side instead of turning him into an angst machine for this fic 🙏

this entire moment has me screaming LMFAO

AKAS IS BEEFING WITH BKT’S DOG LMFAOOOOOOOO

someone published their old d0ujin and i like how the summary is a simple: wholesome bk//ak dating, just what i’m in the mood for 🥹

me

sa/rah str/ong catching strays by being too good at 🏀 to the point ppl will claim she’s setting back the sport for choosing to play at uc0nn and doesn’t deserve to be awarded np/oy bc she has no “personality” is frankly disgusting to say

az can have a perfect game and there will always be a side of ppl who continue to move the goal post with her, calling her mentally “weak”, undeserving to be a top ranked player, saying she was only carried by the team etc etc

most random stat

what an unreal catch and pass by sa/rah

AYA/NNA AND ONE 🥹

this is the second time this season an announcer has called sa/rah str/ong by sa/rah f/udd instead 😭😭

only q2 and ge/no already has the bench out on the floor

bla/nca at age 16 played together with bu/tler’s assist coach?????????

bla/nca 😌😌😌

giggling my way thru this fic i’m reading

idk how fans connected the dots of bla/nca's gf but theyre super cute 🥹

😂

20k likes?! excuse me what do half of y’all know about az

last pic of coach ge/no and az was a jumpscare ngl LMFAO

her new hair is pretty 😍

there’s a comment saying no way is bl/anca 6’2 and they’re onto smth bc these two are listed at the same height 😂

these players do not gaf about not having their names on their jersey, or having to continue to tuck in their jerseys or not be able to wear nail polish etc etc if they're choosing to play at uc0nn 😭

i think the whole uc0nn uniform dress code beef would be settled when ppl rmbr most of the players (and most of d/1 athletes) went to a private or prep academy where sports talents are usually developed and already are used to stricter dress codes lol

my enst*rs list is going about their tl normally after the ed/it ima/ge update compared to the panic everywhere else 😭😭😭😭😭😭

i still do think it’s cute az was publicly wearing a necklace of pb’s jersey number with a heart on it ☹️

aw 🥺

i'm still curious to bla/nca's official height, she looks taller than her listed 6'2 , 187cm height and her eur0/cup profile listed her as 182cm from her hs days but she looks taller than those two heights

what’s hilarious to me is uc0nn this year has its tallest roster ever and yet are still undersized in height compared to all the other schools LOL

watching s1 of culin/ary class and i cant stop laughing at the head chef who kept asking the other team for their green onions

i’m done with work
