Title: Saying Your Names

Why is this work awesome?: What I like best about this fic is the fragile, fledgling softness of it. This is a future point where Oikawa and Kageyama are able to be kind to each other, where they still have some baggage but are going to a match together as spectators and are figuring out how to be friends, maybe more than friends. I love that the mood is at once gentle and filled with promise, the moment between them a turning point of going from their usual names for each other, to using first names alone.

Title: Kageyama Is NOT Oikawa's Favorite Puzzle

Why is this work awesome?: The Oikawa in this fic is almost an unreliable narrator, but he's so transparent in his denial of needing Kageyama, of maybe even loving Kageyama, that it functionally loops back around to sincere. The details of how Oikawa thinks about Kageyama are nice but my favorite detail is definitely the idea of Kageyama being the needy one who pulls Oikawa into kisses, not because he's really needier, but because he's matured enough to understand that this is something he can do for Oikawa. Their relationship here feels at once breathless and fragile and good, in a way I don't really expect with oikage but did quite enjoy.

Why is this work awesome?: This fic is deceptively soft in a way I find So Fascinating. I love casual touches between couples and the intimacy of being tactile with your partner, and Kii delivers on that premise beautifully. But then there are little details, Oikawa telling Kageyama that "he's allowed" to do it, Oikawa's observation that Kageyama seems "afraid that he'll do something wrong and be scolded for it," evoke their history in a way that's subtly unsettling. This may be a future point where they're dating and learning to be comfortable with each other but their past cannot be entirely erased, and this knowledge creates an underlying tension beneath the gentle action the fic focuses on.
