[But that's the charm of it- the fact that they don't fit him! He's so cute like that, Bokuto already has dozens of pictures.]
Mmm, yeah. But-! We'll handle it. We made it this far!
[It's been rough but they are still together and Bokuto doesn't feel any less in love with his Tsukki. In fact, it feels as if it's stronger than before.]
Then we go together! You get your PhD, I get my Olympic medals, then we pick up our stuff and go.
[It sounds so easy when Bokuto says it like that, but he also means it when he says it. He reaches with his hand to brush some of the blond bangs and trail fingers over the high cheekbone and grins.]
And then! We get rich and travel the world! We get on cruises, sip champagne and eat strawberries while dipping our feet in the pool!
No thanks, cruise ships are disgusting. We can do the other things.
At the ocean.
[Why would they need a pool?
Maybe it's weird, discussing life plans right after everything they just did. Oh well. No time like the present, really. Tsukki settles back. Scratching through Bokuto's hair.]
Speaking of the Olympics... When do you find out about that?
They are? I've never been on one! I heard they can carry million of stores as if it's on land. We can go on a very expensive one that's not dirty?
...I guess we can buy a yacht of our own.
[If there's any other implication it flew over his head. But he tilts his head for those scratches like a cat or a bird. Tsukki's long fingers give best scratches- through his hair or on his back.]
They'll call me! They have a list and everything. I made it in the top ten suggested players, [he grins. He'd usually sulk he's not in the top five or three, but this is National level for Olympics so he can't complain.]
[Bokuto feels like tackling Tsukishima out of happiness. And you know what- he will! They are on the bed, it's fine!
It's a light tackle though, more like pull down to bury face in Tsukki's neck.]
Thank you Tsukki!! You'll watch me on TV I promise!
[Bokuto nods-]
Yep! And your previous teammate is there too! Kageyama, I think. And that Atsumu guy. They've been arguing a lot. [...] Or more like, Atsumu argues AT Kageyama. It's weird.
no subject
I promise to give it back! Or! You can use one of mine. I love it when you wear my clothes.
[And he pecks Tsukishima's cheek because his breath is probably really bad right now. Then snuggles up close to him.]
I really missed you. Really really.
no subject
Tsukki can't say he minds it.]
Yeah. Hopefully Grad School will be closer to you.
no subject
Mmm, yeah. But-! We'll handle it. We made it this far!

Or you could just go play volleyball in Australia!
[This is... 90% a joke.]
no subject
Australia!? I'd rather win some medals for Japan!
[He also wants to be close so Tsukki can praise him!]
no subject
But - So does Japan.
Chuckling, Tsukki pokes Bokuto in the shoulder.]
All right, all right.
I won't inflict your English on Australia.
no subject
Bring Tsukki with him.]
My English is not bad! [Bokuto grins.] It's not good but it can pass!
[He was somehow better at that than sciency subjects. Maths and chemistry are a nightmare.]
no subject
[That gets a surprised blink. With how Bokuto struggled in school, Tsukki figured he'd want to spend his whole career in Japan.
Tsukki pushes up onto an elbow. Studying his boyfriend carefully.]
Australia and New Zealand have some of the most interesting research programs. I'd really like to work there. After I get my PhD.

[It's not surprising Bokuto's on the very short list. But theory is one thing. This is actually starting now. ]
Are there tryouts?
no subject
It's a light tackle though, more like pull down to bury face in Tsukki's neck.]
Thank you Tsukki!! You'll watch me on TV I promise!
[Bokuto nods-]

no subject
[Oh right - Tsukki's still a bit indecent. There's a moment to get things rearranged.]
Well, Kageyama is weird. Can't say I'm surprised.
How are things with Ushiwaka?
[The returning veteran, of course.]
no subject
I think Miya tried to get under his skin. [But Kageyama is either unphased or good at masking what he thinks.]
Ushiwaka is Ushiwaka! I think he's the certain one that's making the team.
[As expected of the guy. Bokuto would envy him if he had the time for it- too busy focusing on his own practice
and thinking of his Tsukki]no subject
[After all - That's how his entire relationship Hinata worked/works(?). (Who knows with those two.)]
no subject
[No one knows. Which is why Bokuto doesn't spend more time thinking about it and finds a new spot on Tsukki's neck to tease and pepper with kisses.]
