Summary:

Fukurodani's volleyball team travels to Miyagi for a week of training and practice matches, each day of the week dedicated to a different school. Akaashi explores an older part of town and discovers an old tea shop. Inside, he meets Semi Eita, and from there, a new friendship blooms.

Preview:

Akaashi doesn't know how to respond, and it shows because he continues, "I'm Semi Eita."

He holds out a hand. Akaashi watches him, and then hesitantly places his palm in his hand. He feels the calluses that Semi points out, rough and thick from years of playing the same beloved sport. There's no way to explain the connection he immediately feels toward the stranger, though his nervousness and caution, built from years of living in one of the most densely populated areas in Japan, warn him not to give too much away. Against his better judgment, he responds.

"Akaashi Keiji."

Maybe the mountain air is getting to him.

The second fic for the Olympics Bang! This one is about Akaashi and Semi, who are running the 5000m race, but there’s some homophobes making Akaashi’s life harder than it already is. Huge thank you again to the mods, and @fabfrogs who drew the art for this one! (you can check the art out here)
