On your sixteenth birthday, at 12:00 midnight, your soul words will appear on your left wrist. It’s 11:20 p.m., June 20th, and Shouyou is about to turn sixteen. (Inspired by the art of @TaliaMamane on Twitter)
Sample:
Kageyama bounds into the park when the clock hits 11:55 p.m. Without thinking much about it, Shouyou runs to meet him halfway, and they collapse against a fir tree, Kageyama from exertion and Shouyou from sheer, dizzying…something.
“You made it,” Shouyou says unnecessarily.
“Told you,” Kageyama pants, as if Shouyou ever actually doubted him.
Shouyou checks his phone. “Five minutes to go,” he says, in a thin, reedy voice reminiscent of a first-year Shouyou before the first Interhigh.
Kageyama struggles to sit up and gives Shouyou a glare through narrowed eyes. “If you throw up, I’m leaving.”
