where have you been, doc?

to the point -- I'm a law student now! ...and I don't have time to write much of anything that's not for my classes. _(:3

I'm not shutting the blog down, I'm keeping everything up as an archive. I really, really enjoyed writing for all of you, and I hope one day I can get back into the swing of it. But this has been so far on the backburner that I just can't see myself coming back in the near future. I hope you all continue to enjoy the works I have posted.

I'm still into hypmic, that brainrot hasn't faded. If you're into my writing, my ao3 is HERE and is updated very, very sporadically. Mostly I write JakuDo and GenDice, if you're into that. I also have @gretchenwrites as a blog where I sometimes rattle off headcanons when I have them.

I'm really happy you all enjoyed my writing so much, and I know there is a multitude of other headcanon/reader-insert blogs for hypnosis mic rolling around that are wonderful. (I'm sure you've found them!)

Thank you all!

Another little reminder now that the final results are out and tallied!

Please play nice with each other. How you’re feeling - however it is! - is valid and normal. But please don’t be jerks to each other over it. And CERTAINLY don’t be jerks to the seiyuu.

You can be a bitch, but don’t be bitches to each other.

sorry i’m still around

just as a little reminder - the results that came out today are not the final results! we still have the VR battles to go, and the votes that will come from there! it’s anyone’s game :)

also remember to play nice and treat everyone with respect (even people who are fans of your fave’s adversary in this round!)

Hi hi!

This not a request!

I'm sorry if this question is going to make you uncomfortable but since i love reading your works, is it possible for you to make a masterlist?

Hi there!

I’ve tried to make a masterlist in the past - but had an issue with Tumblr as a Site where hyperlinking to each post was an issue. (Or I would hyperlink, it would show as hyperlinked every time i went to edit .....but just not show up as linked.)

I’ve thought about making a carrd or something where I could do that, but if anyone knows how to make this site function i’d be glad to!

sorry i’m still around

tents hands

so glory or dust huh

gentaro how fractured is your sense of self actually

Hi there! I'm actually a new follower but I love your writing! If possible could you write smth about dancing in the rain with Saburo? And maybe Jiro? sorry if this isn't specific enough

Hi Hi! Thank you!! I hope you enjoy it ;;

SABURO YAMADA

The both of you were walking home from school to your place - Saburo said he’d help you study, when you asked. The sky was overcast, but it wasn’t like it was supposed to rain that day. So it definitely caught the both of you off-guard when the rain started plip-plopping down.

Saburo was clearly a little annoyed. And while his pouting is just...well it’s too cute, it’s hard to see him upset. You don’t know what exactly came over you in that moment, instead of trying to find an awning to hide under or start running home, you grab his hand and twirl him around. 

Needless to say, Saburo’s caught by surprise. He opens his mouth to say something, that the two of you should get out of the rain, that he’s going to catch a cold, but when he sees how wide your smile is, how you’re laughing even through this stretch of bad luck, well...he can’t be that mad.

JIRO YAMADA

 “Hey so, don’t be mad at me, but I totally forgot that it was gonna rain today.” 

He gives you that sheepish smile as you leave the arcade, as the rain pours down. Even under the awning in front of the door, you’re getting wet, as the wind whips past the both of you. You want to be mad, to snap at him a little, because you know that the arcade wasn’t going to let you loiter until the storm stops, whenever that would be, and you’re already feeling soaked to the bone anyway. But something about that stupid smile makes you pause. 

Jiro still sees you’re upset, and gently needles you about how you forgot to bring an umbrella too, after all, but then he gets a bright idea in his head. He hums along to the song playing on one of the advertisements he can hear inside, and brings you out into the rain. “We’re wet anyway, what’s the harm?” And he spins you around in the rain. You laugh with him, you can’t stay angry with Jiro for long.

i loved cats (2019) dr. Tom Hooper

i was without a cumputer until recently and just now i got to see your tumblr theme! 🥺💙 its so cute how everything is hospital themed!! 😭 (it is also spring now! i wish you a very nice spring Doc!!)

OH!!! I’m so glad you like it ;;

I hope you have a very nice spring yourself! 

I wish I was wrong

but you guys know I´m not

Hey Doc! Can I get Ichiro and his s/o who haven’t seen each other in a long time and when his s/o steps outside during their break at work they spot him across the street, then they lock eyes and run towards each other for a hug! I need some sweetness in my life rn, thank you you’re the best!🥺

ICHIRO YAMADA

You and Ichiro understand that sometimes, you’re both just so busy that it’s difficult to see each other for any amount of time. He’s always doing the more involved odd jobs (god forbid he sends his brothers to do something too difficult) and you usually have work to do as well, with your job. It’s something the two of you expect. 

It doesn’t mean it doesn’t bother you at all, though. Sometimes silly Line stickers just aren’t enough to substitute quality time with each other. 

So when you see that familiar flash of red in the crowd as you step out of your building to grab lunch, you can hardly help yourself. And he can’t help himself either, once he sees you across the street. You tackle him hard enough to almost knock him over. 

But he still catches you. And you don’t even mind the people staring, that much. Hugging him just feels so solid and real, that you just want to melt. 

Absolutely adore your works!! :"D generally love the fluffy ones since they just make me feel soft! May I request HC's for Jiro & Saburo, when they're older (like in their early 20's) and they try to ask their s/o "what if they got married" or anything similar

JIRO YAMADA

Jiro’s impulsive, but his love of shoujo manga means he knows that if he’s going to marry you, not only does the proposal have to be spectacular and memorable, but you kinda have to be onboard with it. 

But he’s not going to beat around the bush, really. He’s not proposing right then and there, but still asks “Hey, what do you think about getting married?” 

He’s not sure himself if he wants to get married just yet - not that he doesn’t love you! It just seems like a really big step (and moving out seems like a HUGE one for him)

SABURO YAMADA

Probably doesn’t have very strong feelings either way about getting married. But knows if it’s important to you, so he’ll stop calling it a legal con job...for a little bit. 

You’re actually kind of thrown off when he asks about marrying you, his face bright red. Because you were sure he wasn’t really interested in.

He’s actually more willing than Jiro is to take that next step in your relationship. He’s nervous (of course!) but he’s still really, really sure about you. It probably takes him longer to actually pop the question - he wants you to have a really really nice diamond ring.

do it doc!! tell us ur super sexy thoughts abt jakurai ahah

OH MAN I WANNA BABBLE BUT IN A VERY SHORT FORM (and as a caveat I do recognize I’m probably projecting a little bit and my interpretation is not at all fact and ur free to interpret characters as u see fit). Also as a fair warning - spoilers for the most recent MTR drama track. 

I think that Jakurai’s character flaws, while less noticeable than those around him (especially less noticeable than Doppo’s self loathing and temper, and Hifumi’s fear around women and his childlike rudeness) are probably going to be the biggest problems for Matenrou in the near future. Jakurai’s biggest flaw to me is that, for whatever reason, be it just his personality or the role he casts himself in or past incidents (or trauma which is what I think it is because whether Hypmic Writers know it or not I think a lot of this series is built around themes of trauma and recovery) Jakurai keeps everyone, even those closest to him, at arm’s length. He wants people to rely on him, especially those in his life that he considers the most important, but he doesn’t trust anyone enough to show them vulnerability or ask for people to let him rely on them. 

And it isn’t like he doesn’t want to have relationships that go beyond a sort of surface level. In the manga, when he gets drunk the first time with Doppo and Hifumi, one of the things he says to them is “you guys are going to drink with me and we’re going to become the closest pals ever” (using the TL from the lovely people over at @/slugtranslation-hypmic) but he just can’t make that happen. (I also think this is what drew him to be so close with Ramuda in such a short span of time - Ramuda came into the relationship with knowledge of his assassin past. He didn’t have to do the hard part of telling Ramuda and waiting for the image he’s created for himself to come crumbling down) 

And this instinct he has for hiding the ugly parts of himself to the point that he can’t let anyone in properly, is going to bite him in the ass. Especially now that he’s working for Chuuoku, he has two major things that he is hiding from Doppo and Hifumi that are eating him alive. Hifumi says multiple times for sensei to rely on them, because they rely on him. But for whatever reason, he just can’t do it. “Rely on me, but I cannot rely on you. Surely this won’t blow up in my face.”

And also speaking of the drama track, we hear Jakurai for the first time, absolutely panicked over something, over Hifumi, and at the end beating himself up for not having done enough for him and Doppo. It’s not like he doesn’t care about them. 

I also think in a lot of ways, Jakurai is still kind of “getting used to” civilian life. I really think of the pool cue scene in particular from the anime, which yes is hot but is also incredibly revealing character-wise. I wouldn’t think that Jakurai, as an ex-Dirty Dawg member and powerful rapper, would actually need to resort to physical violence of any kind. Especially given that up to this point he never has. Even at his most agitated, he’s been level-headed enough not to just start swinging. But he does here. I interpret that personally as an “old habits” sort of thing - he was an assassin at least 10 years before the H-age and general access to microphones, if they had them at all. 

Jakurai is a very good, kind, caring man, that’s all true. But I think it’s also true that he has a natural instinct to push people away from him to preserve an image of himself that doesn’t necessarily exist, and that he hasn’t properly coped with his own background, choosing instead to create a highly sterilized version of himself that’s always been “the good doctor” type. To let someone in, to be vulnerable, is not only taking away that image of himself (the good doctor provides for his patients, not the other way around) but also may leave him susceptible to his friends Learning Things about him that will inevitably shatter that image to the point of no return. 

but that’s just a theory. a game theory

EDIT: aka something i just remembered in the shower 

Samatoki in death respect calls Jakurai a hypocrite, and he’s goddamn right! Jakurai is constantly talking about (and actually has a whole damn song about) the concept of “no man is an island” and yet cannot do that himself. I think he’s taking very, very tenuous steps towards Doppo and Hifumi in this latest drama track by asking them about that trolley problem question he has, but it’s still so vague that it’s hardly enough to prevent the inevitable fallout. It makes me sad that MTR’s bond was so strong after the first DRB and now it’s just so shaky...

if i go on an essay length tangent about what i think about jakurai and his character development you leave me alone to do that 

ur so right doc, party wo tomenaide DOES bop rlly fucking hard and it's bc Hifumi™ power probably

Hifumi..........i think he’s neat :) 

also Kijima always just sells it. the lyrics make me sad but that’s a given at this point in the series.......

do you play any games besides hypmic :o

I play lots of games! :0 

Love Live, Idolish7, A3, Project Sekai, Genshin, I also have Enstars and Idolmaster Cinderella Girls but i play those a lot less. 

why does party wo tomenaide BOP so fucking hard

your blog is very cool and i was just wondering if i could get some early morning cuddles with otome? like before she goes to work

OTOME TOHOTEN 

She always rises early. And frankly, you think it’s a little unfair. 

Sure, she’s running the entire government in the new H age, and she always has a lot on her plate, but is that really a good enough reason to deprive you of early morning snuggles? 

You roll over into the dip of the mattress where she was earlier, pouting up at her. 

“Acting petulant will get you nowhere.” Her voice is soft and gentle, even if her words are scolding. “We spent the night together, is that not enough for you?” 

You shake your head a little, rubbing the sleep from your eyes. “No.” 

Her fingers stop buttoning her shirt, and she lets out a soft sigh. She’s clearly deliberating on whether or not to indulge you. Maybe if you keep it up, if you look at her with the biggest, puppiest eyes you can muster...

“Fifteen minutes. That is it.” She says with a sigh, laying down beside you and setting her timer. She hadn’t finished buttoning her shirt, but you hardly mind that kind of thing. You press up to her side, finding a comfortable position where she can rub your arm, long nails trailing with her fingers, and you aren’t hurting her too much. 

Fifteen minutes is hardly enough, and you know pouting won’t work a second time. But maybe this could be a nice start to her day.
