why i seriously think sakuatsu might be closer than we thought
let's consider the fact they knew each other way before they joined msby,, knowing each other since their 2nd year (if not, 1st year if ever there was a training camp)

sakusa may have known bokuto through the inter-high, but i highly doubt they spent time together like skts did
can i point out that everytime they bully atsumu, sakusa is always present?
there was also the scene in the light novel where atsumu rushes in while sakusa was being interviewed.

to me, it comes off as atsumu rescuing sakusa or something— he already knew sakusa was going to be uncomfortable so he came in and indirectly helped him escape.
there was also atsumu having a firm grip on sakusa's shoulder.

sakusa doesn't even high five his teammates, let alone touch him.

but atsumu touched his shoulder and he didn't seem to flinch, nor be uncomfortable— only until atsumu was giving him the fan gifts.
and it's not even atsumu.... it was the fangifts that sakusa was getting uncomfortable with, not atsumu's hand on his shoulder.
they also observe each other closely.

sakusa clearly said "you are always like that" (from the manga)

and atsumu said "that's just the kind of guy omi-kun is" (from the ln)

just how long are yall observing each other??
im pretty sure atsumu was the one who gave sakusa his nickname,,

we all know that atsumu calls almost everyone (mostly his age or younger) by their first name, calling kageyama "tobio-kun", hinata "shoyo-kun"

he would've called sakusa "kiyoomi-kun",,, but he calls him "omi-kun"
it's sort of endearing 😭💕

"but doesnt hinata and bokuto call him that too?"

well, bokuto clearly doesn't call anyone by nicknames (he used to call sakusa by his last name too)

and hinata came in later than the rest of them. he just picked it up...
lastly (thank you @/ice_is_love for pointing this out) omi became the partner atsumu found his twin in, especially that he and osamu separated.

he indirectly became the one that kept atsumu grounded
IN CONCLUSION, SAKUATSU CANON
PLUS THEYRE ALWAYS TOGETHER 😭😭😭 IF THIS IS ISN'T SOULMATE CULTURE 😭💕💕💕

ATSUMU SEEKING SAKUSA 😭💕💕💕
i forgot this iconic panel hhh

I JUST THINK THIS IS IMPORTANT
