Insight into the writer's head
12 ways your cat shows you that they love you – Kuroo drabbles
- Purring – Kuroo ends up resting his head on Haru's lap and she plays with his hair absent-mindedly, only to hear him rumbling with joy
- Roll around showing their belly – during one of Nekoma's home parties (birthday) Kuroo drinks a bit and ends up on the floor in front of the couch, rolling onto his back, showing Haru his bare stomach
- Bunting (rubbing their head against yours or headbutting) – Kuroo enters the second-year classroom and sits in front of Haru. While she's working on her class notes, he pushes his head against hers, gently headbutting and then rubbing his cheek against her hair
- Scratching – Haru is tired after helping out during the Fukurodani Academy Group practice and slumps down in her seat during dinner. Kuroo walks over and starts gently scratching and massaging her back
- Kneading – Kenma POV: Haru falls asleep during one of the team meetings and Kuroo ends up placing her on his lap and kneading her thighs and upper back. (stop feeling our manager up)
- Gifting odd gifts and prey – Kuroo comes into Haru's classroom during random days to give her random knickknacks. They are usually weird and out of the box, but she ends up collecting them into a drawer at home. Finally, he gives her his jersey at the middle of his third year and even puts his medal around her neck when they win a tournament for her to wear during school hours (I'll lend you this~)
- Playing – Kuroo steals Haru's phone when she's texting and makes her chase him during lunch time around school
- Sleeping – Kuroo constantly ends up asleep somewhere on Haru during lunch breaks, practice breaks and team hangouts
- Loving eyes (slow blink is a cat kiss) – Kuroo can't stop himself from watching Haru and once, he offers her a 'cat kiss' from across the room, only for them to know what it means (and Kenma)
- Curved tail and elevator butt – Haru finds out that Kuroo is very much of a 'butt guy' when he constantly taps and pinches hers for kicks. So, she returns the favor one day, only to have him turn and smirk from above. From then on, it always seems that he has his back turned to her, as if waiting for another pinch/smack
- Meowing (talking) – Despite Haru being a second year whom Kuroo's never talked to before, he keeps greeting her in the morning and finally, during one of their teasing shout outs, ends up offering her a soft meow and a shrug
- Licking (self-grooming and marking their territory) – Haru tells Kenma that she hates the way her hair is, all curly and untamable, while Kuroo is snoozing in their classroom behind her. He comes in the next day and sits on the desk behind her and does her hair for her, then leans in and licks her neck with a smirk.
I wanted to give you guys a bit of insight as to how the drabbles were planned out and how they were supposed to look before I started writing. Some of them ended up a bit different when I started writing :P
On the other hand, this is a complete series now. Feel free to check out 'The Zookeeper' for a multi-chapter story about Kuroo and Haru.
Finally, there is a poll about Haikyuu drabbles on my profile. If you'd like me to write another set of them, please vote for your top character pick(s) :D
I hope you enjoyed '12 ways'!
