I Stay Alive in Sports Anime Through Fanfiction

[Third-person narration, pairing: Miya Atsumu]

You were an ordinary member of the volleyball club, until the captain's volleyball knocked you out and a forum appeared in your head.

The forum's daily active users were close to zero, and unfortunately your lifespan was directly proportional to whether the forum stayed alive.

The forum was almost dead, and so were you.

The few remaining IDs on the forum belonged to people who had nowhere else to go after shipping rarepair crack ships, so they stayed to keep each other company.

Staring at the wish post where people were tearfully begging for rarepair ship content, you fell into deep thought.

You didn't want to die along with the forum, so you decided to save yourself by granting that wish. You couldn't let the last people leave, too.

Step one: Find the captain of the volleyball club who knocked you out.

Step two: Knock the idiot captain out, tie a pink bow around him, and put him in a gift box.

Step three: Send the gift box to the ace.

The ace wasn't overjoyed when he opened the gift box. He gave the idiot captain a chop to the neck, making the already-idiotic captain even dumber. The captain hugged the ace and complained furiously.

The scene of the ace opening the gift box and then beating up the captain appeared in the new manga series.

The rarepair ship became popular, and fanfiction about the rarepair gift box took off.

The forum wish post was dug up.

From that day on, the forum was flooded with wish posts for all sorts of crack ships.

Seeing that the forum might be revived, you ran around all kinds of sports anime, helping create more fanworks for the forum.

Until one day, you appeared in a new manga series.

A popular thread appeared on the forum: Why does this new character know everyone? Girls, got any content for me to eat?!

Staring at the popular thread wishing for you to be at the center of a ship, you fell into a dilemma.

Should you get involved yourself?!

Looking at the idiot captain on your left, clinging all over the ace, the rival team's ace on your right, forcing himself to get close to a junior despite having been tamed, and the beloved guest player from another school caught in a love-triangle mess nearby...

You: I have no idea where to start...

Faced with these scenes of fanfiction becoming reality, you felt out of place and decided to join in.

You walked over to the Miya twins, who were fighting, grabbed a golden-haired fox out of the fray, pulled him into your arms, and whispered a dangerous gay line into the bewildered fox's ear.

"Can we sleep together tonight?"

The forum's daily active users surged at that very moment.
