This was an interesting one to think about! I'm not as big on gaming as some of my friends/my s/o, so I hope these all fit the bill! Admin Neon

Midorima — strategy/puzzle games

he doesn't dedicate a lot of time to gaming, so when he does carve out an hour for it, he likes to play games that exercise his brain

he prefers strategy games that he can download on his phone because they're easy to pick up and put down, but he does have one or two on his home computer

Takao — anything and everything

as hinted at in a previous scenario, Takao is a streamer in his free time, so he plays a lot of different genres, though some of his favorites are of the horror genre

not only do they do amazingly when it comes to views on his channel, but he loves the jumpscares and the thrill it gives him

Kimura — platformers/side-scrollers

a lot of his games are older ones from his family members, because none of them really had the time or will to get any of the newer systems

he finds them very easy, but this isn't an issue; it gives him that instant sense of gratification that he searches for sometimes

Ootsubo — action/adventure

it takes Ootsubo a really long time to finish games; despite that, he often finds himself gravitating toward story rich games because completing them make him feel good

he finds games that don't have a story to follow a little on the boring side, because he feels like there are no goals to accomplish

Miyaji K. — racing/fighting/FPS

he's got a competitive nature, so he plays a lot of games where there are competitions for him to get on top of

absolutely would not let Yuuya win when they were kids

always jokes that, because he can win a race in a game, he can win in real life too

Miyaji Y. — MMORPGs

growing up with his older brother and having the same competitive nature, they grew to play and like a lot of the same games

he eventually discovers his love for MMOs when he gets fed up with losing to Kiyoshi

Thank you for asking, sweetie! I love the bunch of buys you requested!

Askbox is now closed for MTL!

Kiyoshi

Takao

Ootsubo

Hyuuga

Kasamatsu

Wakamatsu

Imayoshi

LEAST

They don’t really have that much difference in the ranking tbh! Like I imagine half of them most likely say “I love you” to their s/o with ease, while the other half might have a small prerequisite of some sort for saying “I love you”.

Obviously they all would have to love their s/o first before saying it out loud, but Kiyoshi, Takao, and Ootsubo would say it first. All three, I feel, have a great sense of self-awareness and are able to acknowledge the facts, including the fact that they have deep feelings for their s/o. Takao especially has no inhibitions whatsoever in confessing that. Kiyoshi and Ootsubo are probably in too deep to be embarrassed lol

As for the rest, the prerequisite I mentioned will be discussed in the following. For Hyuuga, Kasamatsu, and Wakamatsu, I think they would acknowledge their feelings early on, but would be too shy to say it out loud until they’re just so full of love it physically hurts them and they blurt it out. I think Wakamatsu in particular would be looking for signs that his s/o feels the same, so maybe the s/o needs to send him hints.

Отсубо: Сколько ты спал?...

OMG ITS OOTSUBO

(Just a friendly reminder to everyone: in case you’re wondering, my askbox is not open to any requests, I’m doing this for personal enjoyment. Read here for full explanation.)

You guys are going to kill me after reading this.

“Ootsubo-kun?”

The pedestrian path to the university is littered by cherry blossom petals, and the slow falling of the flowers from their trees is an almost ephemeral sight. It’s April, the month where a lot of students start anew. For you and Ootsubo, it’s the second year of your university life—the fact that the two of you enrolled in the same university is pure coincidence, so is the fact that you’re neighbors since high school.

“Yes, ___________?” The former Shuutoku basketball captain paints a perfect juxtaposition with the landscape around you: the gentleness of spring and all the cherry blossom glory, and then there’s him. Masculine, broad and strong, almost like a Roman column in the midst of a garden. 

The pineapple in his hand also provides a strong contrast against the scenery.

“Why… did you bring a pineapple with you?”

“Oh, this?” He chuckles, looking down at the spiky fruit in his hand. “I figured Miyaji would need it to discipline the new basketball club members.”

“—Right.” You decide to just leave it at that. The amount of time you spent with Ootsubo (and thus leading towards the amount of times he spent telling you stories involving Miyaji) should be long enough to neutralize your wonder towards Miyaji’s obsession with pineapples, but you never really know why.

So Miyaji likes pineapple.

“Oh!” You exclaim, an imaginary light bulb turning on right beside your head. “Speaking of pineapples…”

Ootsubo watches with curiosity as you dig in your bag, fishing out your pencil case and unzipping the thing. As the two of your are walking, you’re simultaneously searching the contents of your pencil case. 

“Here it is,” you finally say. Ootsubo looks at the item with a slightly confused expression, but it isn’t because he fails to understand what it is. In fact, he perfectly knows what the item is: it’s a writing instrument, but with a small pineapple decoration on its other end.

You chuckle in amusement; Ootsubo doesn’t know if you’re laughing at the pen or at his bewildered face. You click the plastic pineapple figure and the tip of the pen surfaces.

“It’s a clickable pineapple pen.”

“___________.” 

“Oh, I also have another one with an apple on it!”

“___________, don’t.”

“That’s means I have an apple pen… and a pineapple pen.”  

He sighs. There’s no stopping you now.
