1 part Complete Mature((End of manga spoilers))
Bottoms up and defenses down; it's Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro! Its enchanting energy fills the souls of all its visitors, transforming them into different people after the unique experience rushes through them. Not even Hinata and his friends are safe from Carnaval's spell, which makes sure to leave quite a long lasting impact on them.
Hinata's second Carnaval in Brazil approaches, and he wants to spend it with his new friend Oikawa. Both men drag their best friends along to the renowned celebration, and all four of them enjoy a few days together in Rio de Janeiro. Their stay is packed with hilarious moments, enlightening experiences, and amazing discoveries. The electric atmosphere of Carnaval draws out feelings the men had hidden for many years, forcing them to be honest with themselves and one another.

I did so much research for this fic (so much so that my search engine must think I'm planning a whole trip to Rio at this point), but there probably still are some incoherences or inaccuracies regarding the city and how Carnaval works as a whole. Because of my limits, I ask of you to keep these shortcomings in mind. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy the little Brazilian universe I tried to recreate for our volleyball boys.
Also, let's say that during the 2016 Olympics in Rio, Kageyama and Hinata did not meet even though they most certainly would have. And let's pretend that the 2017 South American Volleyball Championship does NOT happen in February, that way Oikawa can attend Carnaval without missing any major career events🙃 let's just pretend for my sake that it happens in like April or something...
Thank you for reading!
