"𝗔𝗮𝗮𝗵! 𝗡𝗼, 𝗻𝗼, 𝗻𝗼, 𝗻𝗼," Y/N screeched, her avatar frantically trying to duck behind a box on B-site

"𝗔𝗮𝗮𝗵! 𝗡𝗼, 𝗻𝗼, 𝗻𝗼, 𝗻𝗼," Y/N screeched, her avatar frantically trying to duck behind a box on B-site. "Millions of these sweaty tryhards on B, sweethearts. Help!" 

"Also, one mid," Kenma added, his tone as calm as if he were reading off a grocery list. His character was already sprinting toward B-site like it was just another day at the office. 

The rest of the team scrambled to follow suit, chaos erupting in their comms as shots rang out. 

"Nice one!" Kuroo hollered as Bokuto managed a clean headshot, the enemy dropping like a sack of potatoes. 

"Let's GOOO!" Bokuto yelled, hyped as ever, his mouse clicking furiously. 

"Damn it!" Y/N smacked her keyboard in frustration as her avatar got ambushed from the left. "WHO IS WATCHING LEFT?! Oh, wait, that was me. Never mind. Pain." 

"Wow, what a rage," Kenma remarked dryly, shaking his head like a disappointed parent. Y/N, still fuming, crossed her arms and switched her POV to Kenma's. She watched, slack-jawed, as his pixel-perfect aim dismantled the enemy team one by one in a 1v3 clutch. 

"KENMA, YOU GOD!" screamed Shōyō from the Discord live-stream chat, where he was spectating like a rabid fanboy. 

Kenma didn't even blink. "Standard." 

"Last round, guys," Keiji said, calm as ever, as he bought his weapon loadout. 

It was over in minutes. They won the match with a decisive victory, and Y/N practically bounced in her chair as the words *rank up* flashed across her screen. 

"LETTTSSS GOOOOO!" she shouted, spinning in her chair and throwing in a little dance that she would never admit looked more like a wiggly potato. 

Everyone logged out of Valorant, but instead of leaving Discord, they just lingered in the voice channel. Moments later, more people trickled in, and the channel's vibe quickly spiraled from tactical comms to full-blown chaos. 

"Who's that?" Nishinoya's curious voice piped up, clearly referencing Y/N. 

"My sister," Keiji replied with the exhausted tone of someone who knew exactly where this was going. 

Right on cue, the sound of a new joiner pinged. 

"HelloooOOoo! What's—" Oikawa's greeting was cut short. 

"Shut the fuck up, Oikawa," Kageyama grumbled, as if he'd been waiting for this moment all night. 

A beat of silence followed before Bokuto chimed in with: "Hey, did you guys know it's possible to turn peanut butter into diamonds?" 

Crickets. Absolute crickets. 

"Bo—go to sleep," Y/N groaned, facepalming and barely stifling her laughter. 

"Bet he's sneaking to the kitchen to try it right now," Kenma deadpanned, sending the entire channel into hysterics. 
















Hours later, Y/N was sprawled on her bed, scrolling mindlessly through TikTok with her screen brightness so high it felt like staring into the sun. The clock ticked past 2 a.m., but it was Friday, so who cared? 

On a whim, she flicked over to Discord. Most of the server had dipped by now, leaving just a handful of people online. Her eyes landed on Kenma's username — still active, as usual. He was playing minecraft, probably lost in some modded dimension where he was building a mansion out of blocks made of cheese or something equally ridiculous. 

Curiosity piqued, she clicked his icon and opened a private chat.
