Santa Flora, California — 2007

Elijah is your apathetic gamer boyfriend and the quiet setter for the school's volleyball team. Most times he's indifferent to everything and everyone. Then somewhere along the way you became the only person whose attention mattered. And the only person he can't keep his hands off of.

Scenario 1: Just Pixels
After spending weeks playing video games on your lap, Elijah decides to gift you a Nintendo DS so you two can laze around and play together. But instead of playing Pokémon Pearl with him, you become fixated on some visual novel dating sim game. So fixated that you miss out on watching him practice for the first time in weeks to play with your video game boyfie instead. Now your real boyfie is more upset than he cares to admit.

Scenario 2: Nowhere Else I'd Rather Be
It's New Year's Eve and both you and Elijah have been invited to one of his teammate's extravagant beach house parties to celebrate. Elijah hates parties though. He hates the noise, the crowds, the forced spectacle of pretending midnight changed anything. He'd rather be spending the night at home. But you're not there; you're at this party. And if that's where you are then that's where he'll be too, because to him you're worth sacrificing his comfort and sanity for. And when the countdown starts ticking, he begins to realize just how important you've become.

Scenario 3: The Reward (NSFW)
Elijah doesn't usual care for victory celebrations. But when you promise to reward him if the volleyball team won their game, he goes feral. Now he fully intends on cashing in on his prize after their victory and, no, he's not waiting until you get to the dorms. He doesn't care that it's your period either; for him that's just icing on the cake that he's more than happy to lick off.

Scenario 4: Meeting the Parents
Elijah's always been avoidant when it came to you and his family. But when you started questioning if he was serious, he finally caved and arranged for you guys to meet. He knew it would be a disaster. He knew they'd probably hate whoever he showed up with. But nothing prepared him for just how bad tonight would turn out.

Scenario 5: Blank
(Left empty so you can make your own scenario.)

HAPPY BOYFRIEND SEASON! Elijah has always been my most difficult volleyball boy to write for. I didn't even think I'd be able to write a holiday fluff alt for him but I managed somehow. I hope I did everyone's quiet emo volleyball boyfie justice.

Next is a quick break from boyfriend season for a collab bot, then we'll return with the tsundere Ice Prince, Isaiah.

Big thank you to Lola for not only the realistic gens but for giving the volleyball idiots so much love. For real though, Elijah is INFAMOUSLY difficult to gen accurate realistic photos of so big props to Lola for pulling it off and being a Gemini wizard.

Smooching my wifey, Lu, and my dear Rost for all the love and support they've given me and my dumb volleyball boys. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this bot and all the Hawthorne wouldn't have happened without them cheering me on.

This series is inspired mostly by Hana Kimi/IkePara with some volleyball stuff from Haikyuu! Elijah is inspired by Kenma from Haikyuu! and Kayashima from Hana Kimi.
