Man, that's a specific pairing from 'Oshi no Ko,' isn't it? You've got good taste. Honestly, I think your best shot is going straight to Archive of Our Own and using the right tags. Search for 'Hoshino Ai Sarina Tendou' and 'Hoshino Aquamarine'—sometimes the character tags are under their real names. Filter by kudos or comments; that usually sorts the wheat from the chaff.
I've found some real gems there that explore their weird, co-dependent dynamic beyond the idol/manager thing. There's one called 'Ghost Light' that really gets into the psychological manipulation angle, which felt pretty true to the source material. Just be prepared to wade through a lot of... less polished stuff. The fandom's still growing, so quality can be hit or miss.
Sometimes, cross-posting happens on Fanfiction.net, but AO3's tagging system makes it way easier to find exactly the messed-up relationship studies you're probably looking for. I'd steer clear of general anime fanfic sites for something this niche.

Honestly, I think a lot of fics go straight for the enemies-to-lovers route, which works but can feel a bit samey. A trope I'd love to see more is one of them secretly being the other's muse. Like, maybe Hikaru is a jaded professional musician, and Yoshiki, this quiet, intense guy who works a normal job, accidentally inspires a new melody just by being his intense, weird self. It's less about big, dramatic fights and more about quiet, obsessive observation turning into affection. The slow realization that your art is being shaped by someone you barely know is such a rich angle.
For something completely different, the 'five times they didn't kiss' structure could be amazing for them. It forces a focus on all the little moments of tension—adjusting a jacket collar, sharing headphones on a train, arguing over a score—that build up to that final moment. Their personalities are so strong and clashing that the 'almost' moments would crackle with unresolved energy.

I can only really speak for the appeal I see, and it’s not what a lot of the fluffier stuff seems to focus on. The dynamic is basically a walking pressure cooker. You’ve got Yoshiki’s obsessive, volatile intensity and Hikaru’s more manipulative, detached calm. It’s less about romance and more about two messed-up people who understand each other’s worst impulses on a cellular level. The best fics I’ve read explore that mutual toxicity as a form of twisted intimacy—they’re the only ones who can handle each other without flinching, which is a terrifying kind of love.
A lot of the popularity comes from the sheer potential for conflict. Canon hands you Yoshiki’s barely-contained rage and Hikaru’s clinical curiosity. Putting them together forces all that subtext to the surface. Does Hikaru poke at Yoshiki to see him break, or does he genuinely want to stabilize him? Does Yoshiki’s fixation become protective or destructive? Writers can spin that in a hundred directions, from psychological horror to a bizarrely functional codependency. It’s niche, but for people who like messy, character-driven tension, it’s a goldmine. I keep coming back to see how authors answer those questions differently.

I recently dove into some Hikaru Kamiki fanfics, and there's this one called 'Whispers in the Moonlight' that absolutely nails slow-burn romance. The way the author builds tension between Hikaru and the OC is masterful—tiny gestures, lingering glances, and all those unspoken words that make your heart ache. It’s set in a coffee shop AU, which sounds cliché, but the pacing is so deliberate that every chapter feels like a step closer to combustion.
Another gem is 'Falling Petals,' where Hikaru’s paired with a reserved artist. The emotional depth here is insane; it explores his vulnerability beneath the cool exterior. The author uses seasons as a metaphor for their relationship, and by winter, you’re screaming for them to just kiss already. Both fics are on AO3, with tags like 'mutual pining' and 'emotional slow burn'—worth every minute.

Well, this is an interesting niche because honestly, the fandom isn't huge, so the tropes have kind of solidified around a few specific dynamics. The main one I see is the 'Eternal Rivals to Lovers' arc, but it's less about playful competition and more about this intense, almost oppressive history. Writers really lean into their shared past, the weight of expectations, and that feeling of being the only two people who truly understand the pressure they're under. It's angst-central, usually.
A lot of fics also explore Yoshiki as the outwardly cold, internally chaotic anchor to Hikaru's more publicly brilliant but privately unraveling persona. You get a lot of 'hurt/comfort' where one of them is having a breakdown after a match or a public scandal, and the other is the only one allowed to see it. The 'Five Years Later' reunion trope is also massive—they've gone their separate ways, become champions in their own right, and then collide again, all that old tension fresh as ever.
It's not all heavy, though. I've stumbled on some surprisingly good slice-of-life stuff set in a hypothetical shared apartment, dealing with the mundane horrors of laundry and cooking after a life of tournaments. Those are rare gems, but they feel like a relief from the standard emotional wreckage. The pairing seems to attract writers who enjoy dissecting the psychology of competition more than fluffy romance, which shapes the trope landscape.
