[It’s certainly not the best spike he’s ever seen, but it’s a spike nonetheless. Here a week ago she hadn’t been able to hit the ball at all, let alone send it in the right direction - and besides, a hard to hit spike is a good thing so long as it doesn’t go out of the line. They may not have any drawn here on the blank ground between them, but Iwaizumi can imagine them well enough, and if he were the ref, he would definitely be calling this spike in.
[He wastes no time, diving fearlessly to the ground and skidding on his knees to bump the ball back in her direction. It’s a pretty impressive receive, though not his best - but hey! She just spiked him a ball that he could dig!]
Bump it back, Ann! You can do it!
[Normally he wouldn’t send the opponent (Ann in this case) a ball on purpose, but it’s headed right for her now. Even if it goes completely out of the would-be bounds, it’ll be a huge victory for her to simply make contact.]
