Title: Overprotective

Summary: Kagami is limping. Naturally, Himuro tries to strangle Aomine, and Kuroko is all too glad to offer his assistance. (AoKaga, if it wasn't obvious.)

.

"Eh? Tatsuya? What're you doing here?"

Tatsuya puts on his best mock "offended" face. "What, do you really not want to see me, Taiga?" he teases.

Naturally, Taiga blanches and waves his hands frantically. "No, no! It's not like that, I'm just surprised!"

It always works, Tatsuya thinks, amused. "I was just kidding, you know," he laughs. "Where're you heading to now, anyways?"

"Oh, nowhere in particular," Taiga replies. "Just out for a walk, since I'm bored and really have nothing to do, and I can't get a hold of Aomine for a game."

They begin to walk again, and Tatsuya can't help but notice that his little brother's limping.

"Did you hurt yourself in a game?" he asks, unable to keep the worry out of his tone.

Taiga blinks at him, bemused. "No, why would—oh." His face turns a vibrant shade of red.

Any other time that Tatsuya might see Taiga's face this red, he might be snickering and snapping photos with his phone for blackmail material, but right now, he's pissed. Beyond pissed.

"Himuro-san."

Both he and Taiga jump a foot in the air when a quiet (but holy shit, angry) voice sounds behind them, and Tatsuya turns to see Kuroko Tetsuya, Taiga's shadow.

"K-K-Kuroko!" Taiga shrieks. "When did you get here?"

"I've been following you since you saw Himuro-san, Kagami-kun," Kuroko informs Taiga. "But that is not important right now."

After the shock of having Kuroko appear out of nowhere fades, Tatsuya's initial rage comes back with a vengeance. "Indeed," he practically growls.

Both Kuroko and Tatsuya must have been emitting some serious killing intent, because Taiga quails a little. "U-um, Tatsuya, Kuroko," he stammers.

Tatsuya draws in a deep breath, calming himself. No way this is Taiga's fault. Innocent, adorable Taiga. "I am going to kill Aomine Daiki," he snarls.

"I will help," Kuroko offers with a savage grin that really shouldn't be that terrifying. And really, Tatsuya shouldn't be so pleased to see such a look on the short basketball player's face because of who is on the receiving end of such a look.

"Wait, you can't—" Taiga cries but is quickly interrupted.

"Come on, Kuroko-san," Tatsuya says. "Let's go find him."

"Just 'Tetsuya' is fine, Himuro-san," Kuroko replies.

"Then 'Tatsuya' is alright as well."

Tatsuya and Tetsuya are gone before Taiga can say "fuck", off to find the unfortunate soul known as Aomine Daiki.

It's only thanks to Taiga that Aomine's still alive, really.

Though, that isn't to say that Aomine isn't permanently terrified of Tetsuya and Tatsuya.
