"So you're meeting the new members tomorrow?"

"Yep, same for you right?" Y/N asks.

"Yeah, we'll be having tryouts." Sakusa confirms. "It'll be interesting to see what kind of first years we get, as well as who coach decides our captain is."

"Ohh that's true, I'm really lookin' forward to seein' what kind of first years we get." Y/N chuckles. "We got some nice ones last year so I'm hopeful that we'll get nice ones this year too~"

"Is that so?" Sakusa asks as she nods. "What kind of first years would you like to join the club?"

"Hmm..." Y/N thinks to herself for a moment. "Well, Rintarou said he wants tall and good players, which I agree with, but I guess I kinda want... cheerful members? Like, not too snarky or serious. Akagi-senpai was the most cheerful but he's already left, and our most serious members already left as well so we're kinda just left with the snarky members... Also, I'd prefer to not have anyone hot headed."

"So, you don't want another Miya Atsumu." Sakusa deadpans as she smiles.

"Nope~ One's enough thanks."

"I see..."

"How 'bout you Sakusa? What kinda first years do you want?" Y/N asks.

"I'm not fussed, anyone can join if they'd like." Sakusa shrugs. "As long as they do things properly then I have no complaints."

"Mmm, you'd make a great captain y'know, you're kinda like Kita-senpai but really different at the same time." Y/N smiles as Sakusa blinks in surprise.

"I'm honoured?"

"I'd be if I were compared to Kita-senpai." Y/N chuckles. "But I do think you'd be a good choice for Itachiyama's captain, unless you think otherwise?"

"I think Komori would make a nice captain, he's much more likable than I am and gets along well with others." Sakusa answers simply. "However, that wouldn't be possible considering he's a libero."

"True true~" Y/N nods along.

"How about Inarizaki's captain?"

"Hm?"

"Who do you think is going to be Inarizaki's captain?" Sakusa repeats as Y/N chuckles nervously.

"Haha... who do you think is gonna be Inarizaki's captain?"

"I think your Number 5, or whatever number he'll be this year, would be a nice choice, but your reaction tells me otherwise." Sakusa sighs as Y/N blinks in surprise.

"You think Hitoshi would make a good captain?"

"Yes, he seems reliable." Sakusa confirms as Y/N nods.

"Yeah... he'd make a good captain..." Y/N says after a moment. "But I don't think he'll be chosen as captain anyways."

"Why not?"

"Well... We're Inarizaki." Y/N shrugs nonchalantly. "Sure, Hitoshi is reliable and a great leader, but he doesn't think so which is where the problem lies. Inarizaki's playstyle... we charge ahead without holding onto any concerns, we don't have room for doubts. Hitoshi is a great leader, but he's not suited to be Inarizaki's leader."

"Ah... that makes sense..." Sakusa says after a while before sighing. "So, that means..."

"Yep." Y/N chuckles. "The options are pretty limited aren't they~"

"I sure hope your next captain isn't the Miya I think it'll be."

"I wouldn't be too hopeful if I were you~"
