natsume soseki did not say "don't say 'i love you', instead say 'the moon is beautiful tonight, isn't it'" FOR NONE OF YOUS TO WRITE IT INTO UR FICS!!!!!!!!

#BSD FANDOM ESPECIALLY!!! HES OUR GUY!!! HES THERE!!!#i say this very loosely bc like idk how it went #its a rumour that he said this right #but like fomr what i remember #natsume soseki was an incredibly talented translator but i think he preferred writing original novels #but he was one of the pushers of colloqusalised translations rather than direct which was more popular at the time #so one of his students came up to him w a novel translated from english to japanese and in part of it #one of hte characters said 'i love you'#BUT apparently natsume said that wasnt very realistic in japan due to cultural norms (iirc) and saying ' i love you' would seem too intimat #therefore instead of saying that #say something like 'the moon is beautiful tonight isnt it'#ANYWHO USE IT MORE!!!! i watched a kdrama a while back that used that (hype bc the premise was they were at a publishing firm)#and hwen i say ive never thrown myself across the room harder #pretty pretty please use it also do not take this story time as truth im stupid as fuck and also could be completely wrong but im p sure #thats how it went idk #FHDSJKF #lea.txt #bungo stray dogs #bsd #sobbing violently #bungou stray dogs #natsume soseki

I often think about the vast differences of formality between Finnish and Japanese. Like the two languages aren't even remotely similar as far as grammar goes, but they can sound pretty similar and they have a lot of false friend words. Outside of the languages, Finns and Japanese folks can find a good few similarities in shared values, I especially recall my Japanese teacher back in the day talking about how much she loved the fact that Finns aren't afraid of casual silence. They're very different countries, and the cultures overall are very different, but what I'm getting at here is that the two countries can find a surprising amount of common ground

so it's just kinda funny to me that in Japanese there's nigh endless nuance to politeness and familiarity and respect shown in how you address other people, and in Finnish you come across as weirdly formal and stilted if you refer to the person you're talking with as anything other than "you".

#finland and japan in general are a fascinating duo of countries to me #because in some ways theyre so similar. and in others theyre like night and day.#also shoutout to that same japanese teacher for telling us that its not a safe bet to go /too/ formal either #because that can be seen as mockery (and she did side comment that 'you guys can understand that right?' and the class just went haha yea)#so she told us that if we're unsure just go for a default level of polite and let your finnish accent shine #she was fun i wish i had been able to take japanese classes in any other way instead of #once a week over adobe connect for an hour and a half #it was fucking impossible to retain anything like that #pärsunaal

56 and any Yamo pairing! 🫶

i just wheezed so hard when i saw what the song was i almost snorted coffee out of my nose i am so sorry for this one

#56 - kyoto phoebe bridgers + yamo

the story of how this song ended up on my wrapped is too long so it’s going in the tags but. let me set the scene for you.

2026 NHL GLOBAL SERIES™️ JAPAN - Presented by YPPI

November 13 & 14, 2026: Dallas Stars, Montreal Canadiens, Seattle Kraken, Vancouver Canucks

Saitama Super Arena, Saitama, Japan

It’s a pitiful excuse of a consolation prize for not being able to go to the Olympics, but Kailer’s not going to look a vacation horse in the mouth. The arena’s cool. It’s huge. The people are cool. There’s so many more of them than he thought there’d be with jerseys that have his name on the back, and a lot more that have the familiar orange and blue. He takes a picture of the fifth Oilers Yamamoto jersey he signs—this one’s the good Reverse Retro—and texts it to Connor, says,

no one here has even heard of mcjesus

and gets a moon face emoji in response. Leon’s influence. Kailer’s still never really deciphered what that one means, and he doesn’t think Connor knows either.

They don’t have a lot of time off between games, but Kailer’s trying to be a good tourist. His dad had been so happy when Kailer had told him about the series that Kailer’d had to stop him from trying to book a flight a year in advance, and his mom’s been just as bad, sending him every article she sees about Best New Spot in Tokyo! Cool Restaurant! Have You Seen This Japanese Cat Café? that she scrolls across on Facebook since June. Suzy’s in the same boat, so they’ve been crossing off their compiled travel-guide list together, looping in as many guys as they can. Everyone’s been pretty game. All the teams are crammed into close quarters at the same hotel, which means everyone wants to spend as much time as possible outside of it, and it helps that Kailer’s gotten pretty close with all the other guys that the NHL picked up as Global Series figureheads. Robo’s memes? Absolutely fire. The groupchat loves them.

For every item he crosses off the list, Kailer takes a picture and keeps it tucked in his phone notes. It’s like speed-running a scavenger hunt—they’re only here for four days—but he’s doing a pretty good job. His favorite so far has been all the gardens. They’re stunning, trees shining bright red and yellow, and every vendor has been selling maple candies, maple cakes, and even fried maple, though the official maple festival doesn’t start until next week. The second garden he visits, he does it on his own after practice, buying two cakes from a cart near the gate and walking until he loses the bustle outside. It’s easy to get lost in the winding pathways, heading deeper into the quiet, and there’s dozens of benches underneath the burnished leaves where young couples are tucked away on dates, or old friends are laughing and catching up. In some of the little clearings, there’s small shrines where people leave offerings, a prayer for good luck or good fortune.

Kailer stops at one without any people and sets the second maple cake on top of it, then sits and scrolls through all the texts that he’s missed. His mom gets replied to with a picture of him outside the garden gate, grinning and surrounded by other travelers. He sends his brother a picture of a trashy graphic I Love Japan t-shirt with the threat that he’ll buy one for him, and Kailer’s dad gets a picture of the meticulously arranged and cut bonsai that are across from the bench where he’s sitting. The Seattle groupchat gets a recycled meme from Robo, and he gets two thumbs up and an “LMAO” before he can even exit the thread. Finally, Kailer takes a picture of the half-eaten maple cake in his hand, holding it next to a fallen maple leaf on the bench, and gets halfway through typing another message before he thinks better of it.

(On the plane over, Drieds was reading them a story about how when they first introduced the high-speed railway, people were afraid to use it because they thought it would be too fast for their souls to keep up.

“Bro, if that were true, you just left your soul in the middle of the Pacific,” Ebs had laughed. “Planes are faster than trains.”

“Are they?” Matty asked. “Isn’t the train in Japan the fastest in the world?”

Drieds couldn’t make it through the rest of the story over the sound of everyone ripping Matty to shreds, so Kailer didn’t get to ask whether or not they found out anything about planes. Kailer’s not worried about his soul, but the logic makes a strange kind of sense; after all, he traveled 429 miles in five and a half hours once, and that was a little too fast for his heart to keep up.)

Fuck it. Kailer’s been trying to write a response for the past ten days, and he’s sick of swiping in and out of the message, staring at the keyboard so long he starts to see swirls in his vision.

Kailer drafts the text again and sends it, no context, no caption. A text travels faster than a high-speed train or a jet. Maybe it’ll pick his heart back up on the way.

#I don’t know how this song ended up on my Spotify wrapped because phoebe bridgers is too emotionally damaging for me to listen to like.#at all unless i am In It HOWEVER. there is this one silly video that brings me so much joy and made me feel semi-reasonable about listening #to kyoto & it’s the one video of the two painter guys painting the room & the lil guy is being a menace & the other guy just looks at him s #fondly & so lovingly & is that not the thesis of kailer yamamoto. be small be a menace be beloved by everyone. ANYWAY #liv in the replies #look this was going to be such a different thing and then. my brain went HEY BUDDY GUESS THE FUCK WHAT kyoto is a city in Japan.#day off in kyoto. guess who’s Japanese. guess what the nhl loves to do as HIFE publicity. also growing the AAPI audience is HUGE and i thin #they should. like originally i had NO idea what this was going to be (i’m so lying. the line ‘i’m gonna kill you’ but incredibly fond a la #the two painters video kept replaying in my head and i was like l m a o. klimmer & kailer. no plot all vibes it’s klimmer & Kailer that’s i #there is no real plot there is no actual idea the amount of googling that i did to write just this is UNREASONABLE i would love to be norma #about anything ever but i ALSO invented so much backstory to this that has no way of appearing in the actual fic and also jokes for ME #for instance. YPPI is the american manufacturer for yamaha motorcycles and. suzuki. yamamoto. (it’s not my brainworms it’s due to a fancam)#respectfully also i cannot write this fic. i have never been to japan and i think it would take me eight years to google enough #to be relatively comfortable like y’all have never seen the extensive research i put in to fucking phiLLY and a whole other COUNTRY???#where the premise of the fic is learning how to be a tourist in your life and sometimes you have to grow out of things?#yeah i AM going to make something with the idea of Momijigari and life is ephemeral. is that a plot? no it’s vibes.#kailer goes to japan in the fall and realizes he’s a liar. who lies. (he misses [redacted]) (the redacted is because i haven’t decided)#also also. the garden reference is because a) i spent WAY TOO MUCH TIME ON GOOGLE and found out things to do in saitama and also that #kailer’s grandpa had a meticulous garden and i just think that’s neat #hiding-from-reality-56 #random ficlet is unbeta’d un-anything’d i don’t know WHERE this came from or the real plot of it at all. ok thanks byeeeee

Recently found out Red is 5.7 (1.73cm) and like, that’s almost my height??? I thought I had to look up to him , but the guy is actually a bit shorter compared to the average height on Europe (1.80 cm)

Red guy is (sorta) double the size of Duck, so Duck would be around 2.8ft (86.5cm)

Yellow is slightly taller than Duck, so let’s say 2.9 (89cm)

They… they tiny

I'M RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING ALWAYSSS!!!

Anyways if you need like an accurate chart, I got some screenshots for ya buddy don't worry we can math this out.

Though at this one it's at more of an incline so it's probably closer to this

also oh my god? looking at these pics duck is SO small? hes like activating my love for chihuahuas just staring at him

also. how dare u. just checked it and red guy would still be tall by my pov so. speaking of humanizations just keep doing what yall are doing i suppose

#censoring my own height bc i refuse to give my secrets away #ANYWAYS SHOUTOUT TO US SHORTIES THE DREAM OF TALL RED GUY LIVES ON #anyways this is fun love the height red guy debaucle #HOW SMALL IS THEIR FUCKING HOUSE THEN HE HAS TO CROUCH DOWN TO GET TO THE FREEZER???#their house is like when i went to japan and my whole family was knocking their heads on the doorframes and i did not #it was great #so yknow what maybe i do get it #my dhmis postings

AFFIRMATION: i am not going to watch the whole of blue eye samurai just so i can have more material to complain loudly at the fact that her bastardly father (symbol of european colonialism) is. IRISH???

#like yes obviously many irish people did in fact use their whiteness to ally themselves with empire #but as a nation? as a class of people? why use him as your symbol?? like categorically the one kind of white guy #who is not very much a symbol of white colonialism! americans baffle me!#i keep seeing people say ‘it’s about colonialism’ bro japan was not. colonised by europe #japan was famously a country that was not conquered by europe and in fact went on itself to become a colonial power!#until it was defeated by. AMERICA #in wwii! like OK maybe people are just being stupid and it’s not ‘about colonialism’ and is instead about. white supremacy and eurocentrism #but as i said. I WILL BOT WATCH IT TO FIND OUT

F’s in chat for my good USPS mail peeps who are excited by my big amiami japan packages, but will be denied them as they were so big that I had to go through the alternate shipping option that apparently goes through ups u_u Only two more months until they can call me out again like “:DDDDD This is more like it!”

#I will never forget the disappointment of the usual mailman going ‘you don’t get big packages anymore u_u’#Or the moment they went from ‘Are you Rin???’ to ‘Rin! :D’#Like wheezing truly please I don’t want to be known but thanks lolol #And the occasional substitutes/special delivery peeps like ‘WOW JAPAN PACKAGE!! Did you get snacks? :D’#Like thanks usps peeps love you guys and your excitement 8’U #I am in tears like the support for my hauls is so beautiful thank you lolololol #Never have to wonder if I am bothering specifically these peeps with my hauls x’D #To be fair the boxes are mostly paper so they’re not as heavy as they look lolol #No binches meme but ‘no more big japan packages? 🥺’

that reminds me of the person on wataei vs lightbrush who said theyd buy an eichi nui(? i think it was a nui) and treat it rudely (tho tbh it seemed funny)

i might be fuzzy on the exact details of what they wanted to do bc in my brain im thinking of a) soak him in milk and throw him against the wall or b) throw him into a lake/pond

sorry it is almost 12:30am and ive been doing math. for majority of the last 24hrs so my brain is fried

Anyone who mistreats plushies deserves the death penalty. Vote me for world president and i will make sure this will become reality🦅🦅🔥🔥

#SORRY i WISH i had my eichi nui poor guy is stuck in the uk at a friend's house #she went to japan and got him for me but like. who knows when ill see her yknow?#im so...sigh. eichiiii #ask #neoxsanctuary

So where did he learn shibari?

its like youve never SEEN query and echo

also hes, like. a visibly queer theater nerd. its just Not a Stretch to think he just Had A Friend in a production he was in when he was younger

shit, several eddies were carnies. DEFNITELY met somebody there with the knowhow

theres also the option (and i think this is the most likely for zero year eddie specifically) of. yknow. the same place *i* learned: tutorials on a niche dedicated website for Enthusiasts lmao

#why would he POSSIBLY #in this the age of the internet #need to go TO japan??#u think i went to japan to study kanji??#to watch my animes?? to read my mangas or my doujinshis???#if ur a weeaboo u never need to leave ur damn couch!!#i think eddies self-taught for literally everything he knows tho. i think hes the kind of guy who takes instruction poorly

i've come to the realization that my mom is more willing to try and get the day off work for the release day of TotK than she is for my birthday. literally it's:

"hey can you try and get the day off work for my birthday so we can go to universal since it's on a thursday which should be easier to get time off for"

"well i can try but you know how they are with giving out time off and there's other people who might want it and also it's the week after the park's opening so it might be really busy and the weather is always bad on your birthday so it might not even be a good time to go out"

vs

"hey do you wanna get the day off for totk's release it's on a friday so it's ok if they dont give it to you cuz i know they're weird about it"

"i'll put in the request and we can preorder it and pick it up on thursday after work if they do prerelease even if im exhausted like i always am"

#it's moreso an observation than anything because ive already known my mom can be a piece of shit sometimes #im excited for totk too but i'd like to think going to the theme park ive been looking forward to since japan trip was cancelled-#-has more priority than the release of a fucking video game #i mean this is coming from the guy who went to luigi's mansion 3 release instead of church but also church is not once in a lifetime
