I’ve made a MidoTaka fanfic masterpost some time ago (I need to update it some time though…), so you can check that out firstly as I listed the fics I personally liked there according to their ratings.
As for my r-18 must-reads, I can suggest you check out THISpost. And my recs for multi-chapter fics where they don’t immediately get together but it takes them a while can be foundHERE. I also suggest you check out my fanfiction tag where I reblog the fics I personally like there (though there are other pairings included in the tag, you just have to look for the midotaka ones).
And lastly, if you’d also be interested, my own writing can be found HERE (I mostly wrote MidoTaka).
What if when Midorima said “Takao, we’re leaving”, he actually gave the answer to Momoi’s question of “who would you date?” :))))
I saw a Japanese fan on Twitter point out that Midorima usually says “Let’s go, Takao,” (not “Takao, let’s go”), and maybe it wasn’t a coincidence that he said Takao’s name first…!?!? Well, if we’re crazy conspiracy theorists, at least we’re all in it together. XD
i’m sorry i missed the 10/10 KagaTaka celebration. but then i realized 10/11 is kagakuro then 10/12 is kagahimu so here you go. all three in one. with a bonus shin-chan because no way he’s letting go of his shadow. stick to your own, no da yo~!
Did you notice how, in all these shitty games of “who can score more” and “let’s manipulate the game to set an specific score”, Midorima was the only one in the GOM –without counting Kuroko– deliberately saying how stupid those games were and not agreeing to join them?
And I’m not counting Kuroko here not because his opposing was not important, of course it was, absolutely vital… But I’m focusing in Midorima here because, these “games” were supposedly created to avoid “boredom”, weren’t they? Because GOMs were so strong they always win, without any resistance, right?
Kuroko built his own playing style, from the very beginning. It’s impossible for him to agree with the other GOMs’ perspective here, not when he was part of the other side of the court for so much time. But, it’s different for Midorima. Midorima is one of these amazingly strong, naturally talented players. His shoots are just perfect, it was impossible to block them. So, he could easily say the same than the others, right? He could just say “yeah, sure, I will definitely score more than you all”, couldn’t he?
The truth is that, even being such a naturally talented player, Midorima’s been always a very hard worker. Actually, that’s what his future teammates in Shuutoku specially Takao, please add this to the list of reasons of why Takao fell in love with Midorima Shintarou will respect so much about him: how he train more than anyone else, staying late after every practice, doing his best.
And yeah, he didn’t try to stop his teammates –because, as he said, he follows the course set for the team, no matter what the form. He probably wouldn’t be able to do anything anyway, even if he tried. But he was there, and he said how stupid those games were and that he won’t be part of them. He went to practice, even when the coach and Akashi said they didn’t have to. Because, to Midorima, it’s not about being talented: it’s about doing everything you can, no matter how much that is, or if you’re a genius or not.
Bonus:
You can add this aspect of Midorima’s personality to the already-long list of reasons of why he fell in love with Takao Kazunari too
Still to this day my fav thing about Kuroko no Basket is how Midorima complains about Takao 900% of the time and yet spends nearly every waking hour with him….
Warnings: None whatsoever. A drabble about silent bonds of friendship, mutual romantic feelings and first kisses.Some sort of telepathy going on in the story?
Summary: The rest of the world cannot understand Midorima, and Takao wonders why communication still happens naturally between the two.
