You often struggled with love. You had to keep up with the multiple animes you watched, the fanfictions you read, video games you played, and the multiple boyfriends you had; well, fake, virtual boyfriends that is. One night after scrolling on Tiktok, you come across a post that may as well have changed your life forever:

A peppy voice yelps through the screen, "Do YOU want to visit the anime universe?"

The words immediately capture your attention, "Duh"

"Then consider reality shifting and visit your DESIRED REALITY! All you need is a pen, paper, and a very creative imagination!" The video plays. Her voice is almost piercing but you become intrigued and decide to watch the video out of morbid curiosity, "Visit the anime world, huh? That's virtually impossible" you think out loud. While you were heavily obsessed with anime to the point where your family and peers had felt nothing but pure disappointment, you weren't an idiot.

In school, you're definitely an introvert who decides to keep things to herself most of the time. You have a moderate amount of friends, but you only keep yourself close to maybe one or two. Characteristically, you are uncharacteristically average. Your eccentric personality trait however, is your addiction to anime, manga, and otome games. Anime posters fill your walls and your phone lockscreen is obviously a picture of Tsukishima Kei. Your phone has a separate folder marked with all of the best otome games; while struggling to capture the attention of guys in real life, Defender of Justice 707 would never let you down! Although you find yourself content with otome and anime boys, a string tugs at your heart whenever you see a real-life couple. You think to yourself, that could be me. As long as you could remember, you were always a hopeless romantic, aching for a dramatic slow-burn love story that could only be found on Wattpad or AO3. It's not that you weren't attractive, you surely had a unique look to you. Your deep insecurities and low-confidence forced you to believe that you looked no better than Tonpa from Hunter x Hunter. As your mind slowly started to drift away into mindless thought, you quickly snapped back into reality and continued listening to the girl in the video yap her mind away.

The video spewed a lot of crap about current realities, waiting rooms, desired realities, scripting, methods on shifting, etc. It just sounds like a really advanced lucid dream. There's no way I can actually shift dimensions, right?

While you think the idea is absolutely absurd, you find yourself wanting to learn more. "What if I could meet Tsukishima Kei and visit the Haikyuu universe? I could finally drop the x reader fics and doujinshis. It sounds almost like an escape from reality. Considering the state of the world, that doesn't sound too bad right now" you thought. You promptly sit upright on your comfy, queen-sized bed -there is a reason you haven't left your room in weeks- and look up to see your Haikyuu!! posters staring back directly at you. You tilt your neck towards the right only to greet your Tsukishima Kei body pillow. You chuckle to yourself, "I really am crazy, aren't I?"

After what seemed like hours of joining Amino groups, watching Youtube videos, and reading articles, you decide to give it a rest. You check the clock and sigh, "Already 5 pm? Where did the day go." You have spent nearly 4 hours researching desired realities and came to the conclusion that you definitely want to try it. A part of your intuition tells you that trying it out for yourself is a grave mistake, but another part of you reminds you that it is just for fun. No matter the outcome, it would be fascinating to experience an almost lucid dream-like state where you can visit your beloved Tsukishima and the rest of the Karasuno High School Boys' Volleyball team.
