Oikawa, the World's Most Self-Absorbed Man

The story is complete, and paragraph comments are open.

New blurb:

Oikawa first met Masumi at the exit of the international airport in Buenos Aires.

The moment he saw her, Oikawa thought: She was another version of himself.

After all, apart from volleyball, the only person Oikawa-sama loved most was himself. Iwa-chan and his teammates had to come second.

So Oikawa followed Masumi back to Miyagi and saw the youth she'd been forced to leave behind.

The second time they met was at the exhibition match Kuroo organized.

That dreamlike exhibition match drew in almost everyone from their old circle who was still in touch, and while helping Masumi practice setting, Oikawa learned about her plans for the future.

Let me say it again: to Oikawa-sama, volleyball was the most important thing in the world, and he himself was the second most important.

So Oikawa watched the volleyball rise and fall in a Tokyo gym, learning the truth even as he witnessed a brand-new dream being born.

The third time they met was in the Olympic Village in Paris, France.

Watching Masumi in such high spirits, Oikawa began to question his judgment for the first time.

Once again: in Oikawa-sama's eyes, nothing in the world mattered more than volleyball, except himself.

But Masumi seemed to have put something else behind volleyball instead of herself.

So, feeling a subtle sense of urgency, Oikawa called out to Masumi in the Olympic Village late that night.

"Could you listen to me for a little while, Masumi?"

Original blurb:

A very, very painful Oikawa selfcest story.

People often break down not because of external causes, but because they keep piling pressure on themselves by demanding too much of themselves.

In this story, selfcest means:

Premise: At the level of the soul, the two are one person, but they exist as separate individuals physically. They have different experiences, but the essence of their souls remains the same.

Relationship: A form of self-salvation born from an extreme and sharp mix of narcissism, arrogance, and inferiority.

Reader Advisory:

1. Contains a lot of plot written to suit the author's personal tastes. If it makes you uncomfortable, please stop reading immediately.

2. This is a genderbent and original-character BG selfcest story, and it also contains many genderbent versions of canon characters.

3. This is not a high school story. It starts in 2021, when both Oikawas are 27.

4. Very little of the story is about matches.

5. The author isn't a professional. The technical details are basically made up and not researched.

6. Since the author can't keep track of the different competition formats, all major tournaments in this story use group round-robin play followed by knockouts.

7. Everyone [meaning the volleyball idiots] loves Oikawa. Both Oikawas are the most popular people in their respective social circles [everyone loves them].

8. I'll add more if anything else comes up. That's all for now.
