Okay, needing things to kill time with, my inbox is opened for writing promps if anyone would be interested? So long as the asks are not smut requests (I cannot write it well since it comes off more like a nature documentary :( ) I'm more than happy to write them out!

Admin Note

I’m going to share my pages for fanfiction. I have not been able to write in awhile but I do plan to continue, as well as re write some of my older fics.

Now that being said, some of my fics are bad. And I know that, some were literally just for fun that friends and I decided to post nothing major. But I want to get back into writing again, especially my most recent fic that was for yyh and my series for Loki the God Of Mischief in the MCU. But I have a lot of one shots on there, a lot of them have suggestive and mature content. But I feel like it can’t hurt to share them again.

I am also on Archive Of Our Own under the same username

Teaser #4 - In the Eye of the Jagan

Details under the cut! Last teaser before I post chapter one this week!

He’s weak—the worst thing a person can be.

The consequences were known to him before the operation was ever performed; it was always part of the bargain, part of the exchange for the power of true sight. The Jagan will make him powerful, one to be feared, a name to know and beware: Jaganshi Hiei, Master of the Evil Eye.

But more importantly than all of that, the real goal he seeks to achieve is finally within his grasp. He’s spent years searching for the one who could give him the Jagan, and now the only thing standing in his way is his newfound frailty.

It’s pitiful, really; he’s a fraction of a fraction as strong as he was before the surgery, a mere low-class demon, common scum, pathetic. While his new third eye will help show him the way, his inability to fight any opponents of even a modest caliber in his current state is what he considers a major setback.

“Yukina,” he sighs, to no one but the wind.

Hiei runs his thumb underneath the bandage still covering his new eye. He’s yet to even use it, with as weak as he’s been. Shigure, the demon surgeon he’d tracked down to give him his Jagan, has kept him under his wing temporarily while he recovers. It’s been both insulting and invaluable to essentially be taught how to swing a sword again, but he’s drawing weary of waiting to use the eye.

He plays with the bandage’s frayed edges with an intent finger for a moment before leaving it be.

Lightning cracks, so bright and so loud it threatens to shatter the sky.

Never been much of a rule-follower anyway. Hiei rips off the bandage in one quick motion.

The lightning flashes across the horizon again, and this time it brings Hiei to his knees—so much light and so much pain that he’s blinded by both. He screams and covers the Jagan with one shaking hand while his other scrambles for the bandage.

He wraps it back around his forehead, third eye burning white-hot and pulsating, before he abandons the cliff side and returns to Shigure.

This is from a very long multi-chapter story that I’m hoping to begin posting by January. High romance Kurahi, mostly canon compliant, and a labor of love complete with original artwork! 💕

Rating: Mature/Explicit

Content warnings: CNC, dubcon, general violence, graphic sex, BDSM/kink/bondage/dom-sub dynamic

Ship: Kurama x Hiei (top Kurama & bottom Hiei)

It will be posted to both AO3 and ff.net (for the fandom olds).

This is my entry for the @yyh-revival-big-bang hosted by @yyh-revival - I drew my husband, Karasu-chan, with Kurama in a fanfic written by Elodee based on the telly series, Hannibal with Mads Mikkelsen, one of my brothers' and my favourite actors. =^^= ♡

Here, Karasu is supposed to be fixing himself up for an undercover disguise, he's deep in thought braiding his hair, while Kurama observes his enemy, and almost sees him in a new light with conflicting emotions.

A side note, Karasu being in the blue colours to contrast the complimentary warm colours is to make him stand out a bit, as he is a dead crow walking, btw! Just a small detail. >:3

I shall edit in a link whenever El posts her fanfic! Anyways, thankyou everyone for having me! Cheers, xoxo =^♡^=

~ ♡ ~

Edit: Here is El’s fanfic!! :3 Can’t wait to follow and read all of it being sucha Karasu fan myself!! (as if that wasn’t obvious, lololol) :D

All the Hats I've Worn

Fanfiction_Yu Yu Hakusho

Fictober 2023_Prompt 10: “It’s all right. I’m here now.”

Author's Note: I just love seeing our boy happy and loved. Pure fluff.

...

Yusuke Urameshi had been many things to many people in his life. Wayward son, delinquent student, fearsome opponent. Truth be told, they weren’t titles he thought much about. Not anymore, at least.

“Shhhhh,” he said softly, holding the small bundle in his arms. “It’s all right. I’m here now.” He stared down at the tiny little human in his arms. Half him, half Keiko. Across the room Keiko slept soundlessly; she’d been exhausted, and he wanted her to get as much rest as possible. Having a newborn was a tough transition – they’d been warned by everyone they knew, and more people they didn’t know – and it was turning out to be true. Newborns were difficult, but not in the way they had anticipated.

“He was safe when he was inside me,” Keiko had cried one night. “He was always with me, and now…,” the tears had streamed down her face as he held her and assured her their baby boy was safe now, too.

His mother had warned him the postpartum emotions could be very intense. “Her body is resetting. Be patient and supportive.” He wondered what it had been like for his mother when she had him. It couldn’t have been easy doing it on her own for so many years, and she was the first to admit she’d not been the best mother. Yusuke looked back at his son, a new appreciation for his mother forming. She had not been mother of the year material, but she had tried in her own way, and he supposed that was worth something.

He found his way to the rocking chair and sat, rocking back and forth gently. The fussy infant fought the comfort, making several sounds of complaint, but finally yawned and gave a full body stretch before snuggling closer to his father. “You look happy.” Hiei’s voice was soft and low. He sat perched just inside the open bedroom window.

Yusuke’s smile grew. “You know, I am.” He lifted his eyes to look at his friend. “I really am.”

Yes, Yusuke Urameshi had been many things to many people in his lifetime, but husband and father were by far his favorite.

So uhhh I'm back on my fan fic writing bullshit. I started rewatching YuYu Hakusho and became an instant Kuwmeshi fan. Anyway if you wanna read a fic based on a reddit post about 2 dumbasses realizing they’re in love, feel free to indulge.

It was late, far too late for Yusuke Urameshi to be having an full-on existential identity crisis. But here he was at 2 a.m.–– wide awake, nerves on fire...

After the Dark Tournament, team Urameshi has some downtime. What was supposed to be a mundane night in turns unexpected as Yusuke grapples with what he hopes was a totally innocent, meaningless moment of closeness with his best friend. Or maybe he hopes it meant something more, something he was afraid of acknowledging he wanted. Maybe, just maybe, Yusuke wanted it to mean everything.

Anyone sometimes just want to ramble about the 10+ OCs you have living in your head for fanfiction, but then your memories of your early years of fanfiction.net pop up and you remember people bullying you as you tried so hard to figure out writing your OCs as a teen? No? Just me? 

"I've noticed that younger fans seem to have trouble connecting the dots that a lot of adults on this website were kids younger or close to the age of Yusuke when this series was originally airing back in the 90s in Japan and the 2000s in the west.

Although these fictional characters' stories ended for them at 18 it doesn't mean that Yusuke and the gang stop being important, interesting, or compelling to us. It also doesn't mean that we have to stop loving these fictional characters and their stories after we turn 19.

If you as a minor 14-17 or someone aged 18 - 25 thay feels comfortable shipping these characters, viewing art of them, and reading fic about them ESPECIALLY NSFW art/fic; but your skin crawls that people older than you are creating that content, then you need to sit down with yourself and ask yourself if fandoms that are literally older than your existence are places that you are ready to be socializing in.

Fandoms that are older than your existence will have fans that are MUCH older than you and they are making content and having interactive conversations.

Yu Yu Hakusho is not an Adult Only fandom but it is a fandom that is Mostly Adults.

I fell in love with this show when I was a pre teen. I'm in my mid 30s. The show's target audience is teenagers. But here is the thing: it's target audience was teenagers back in the 90s and 2000s and that's still most of its audience today because Togashi told a fun and resonant story that tends to stick with its audience.

If you can't handle shipping content or adult conversations (conversations about mature topics and themes not necessarily 18+/NSFW but these are definitely present also) about Yu Yu Hakusho then you should try to avoid adult spaces when searching for discussion or content and stick to spaces specifically for minors.

A space specifically for minors would have a ban against all 18+/NSFW content that is strictly enforced. It would not have an 18+/NSFW section at all.

Tumblr and most of the discord servers for YYH that I've seen are adult spaces. Because there is an expectation that while minors are allowed on the websites they must be over a certain age with parental permission because adult conversations happen here where minors could see them.

All of this to say: Unplug from the adult spaces if you feel uncomfortable with adult themes and content or 18+/NSFW content.

Talk to friends irl about Yu Yu Hakusho or find a minor focused space online to talk about it. Come back to the adult spaces in a few years.

This applies to the 18 - 25 crowd also. If you can't handle seeing someone ship these characters or if someone ships them in a way that you don't agree with and it's so upsetting to you that it's causing you a great deal of anger or distress then you need to consider if you really want to be in the Greater Online Yu Yu Hakusho Fandom at this particular point in your life. Or if maybe you want to filter tags on tumblr and drop sites that you can't filter to make your fandom experience more smooth.

If Yu Yu Hakusho has lasted 30 years then it'll last another 3 or 5 years while you get adjusted and engage with Yu Yu Hakusho in minor focused or safely filtered fandom spaces. Trust me. Yu Yu Hakusho will be somewhere on the greater internet when you're older and you've gotten better at self regulating your intake of content online and your response to seeing content online that you don't like.

Yusuke, Kazuma, Kurama, Hiei, Keiko, Botan, Shizuru, Yukina, Genkai and the rest will be here when you get back. That's the great thing about resonant media. It sticks around because people connect to it.

You can love them as long as you want to. They'll always be there. They're not going anywhere."

This mod would just like to add

No one shipping Yusuke x Keiko is sexualizing or exploiting minors; yes, even if the person shipping is 35 years old. These are cartoons, fictional, 2d drawings. If you want to play cute with "but they're 14!" No. Yusuke was created in 1992. He is 31.

If any of the above makes you, a minor, uncomfortable, then get out of adult spaces. Back in myyy day (que groans), any show I liked and looked at online had adult content, like Inuyasha or Naruto, even Teen Titans. I'd be 12 and see suddenly complete porn of Raven, and as a teen, I'd just exit out of it. Now, kids see things online, things they shouldn't see because the internet is NOT safe for kids without parental oversight, and their response is to... yell at the people making the content... for other adults.

If you wouldn't walk into Spencers and yell at the employees there for the vibrators, don't yell at adults drawing porn of Yukina and Hiei fucking. Exit out, or ask your mommy and daddy to put restrictions on what sites you can access. The internet is NOT your babysitter.

Hi....If you don't mind, can I ask, what are your top 10 (or top 7) favorite media (can be books/ manga/ anime/movies/tv series)? Why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before......Thanks....

Hi! Thank you for asking ❤️ On general (no specific order):

Coraline, Neil Gaiman (book)

I read it for the first time in elementary school. I completely fell in love with the story. I was young and I remember being quite impressed with it (for a children's book, it's quite shocking huh). Years later I reread the book and felt again as if I was reading it for the first time. It's been my favorite book for a long time. I always read it every now and then.

Friends (TV series)

My comfort show. I watch it at any time to have fun or just pass the time. I've watched it so many times that I know almost everything about this series. I can talk about it for hours or write a 10,000-word thesis about it.

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle (manga)

My favorite manga of my collection. My little paper treasure, as I like to call it. I really like this story, it has everything I enjoy in a piece of media (fantasy, mystery, plot twists, angst, well-developted characters, etc). I really wanted to erase my memories and read it as if it were the first time again. It is breathtaking.

One Piece (anime)

Despite having seen Naruto first, One Piece is somehow more memorable for me. Whether due to its long duration or the complexity of the character/world build, One Piece is a remarkable work that I always talk about when talking about favorites.

Shinya Shokudo (manga, TV series)

Talking about Shinya Shokudo is not easy. Whether it's the manga or the TV series, it touches me on several levels. A feeling of nostalgia for something I didn't experience, coziness and tranquility. There are few media that bring me such nice feelings. It's simple but touching. Even though I have zero kitchen skills, I love seeing Master cooking different dishes and the customers telling their unique stories.

Hajime no Ippo (anime, manga)

It's a lifetime series, published since long before I was born. I've been reading it for so many years already! I always say I need to see its ending before I die. It's something that I simply have as a goal in life lol Seeing Ippo reaching the end of his story. (Mori sensei please be healthy, okay?)

World Trigger (anime, manga)

Amazing story, amazing characters, amazing world building. Everything about World Trigger is amazing to me. I'm a big fan of science fiction and World Trigger delivers everything and much more. The only sad thing about it is the very slow pace for the story to progress, but we have to be grateful that even with health problems, Ashihara sensei keeps going. I'll always support him and wish to see the end of WT someday.

Supernatural (TV series)

I watched it for the first time when I was a kid and it scared the hell out of me. Ever since then I've been watching SPN from time to time. I love the cheap drama and the quirky stories. Although, for me the quality of the series has deteriorated a lot over the seasons and I don't understand the fandom tbh. But that's another topic I guess.

Tokyo Revengers (manga)

Tokyo Revengers started as an obsession and has remained as a favorite. Time travel stories are always a must-read / must-watch for me and TR knows what they're doing with it. I love protagonists who at the beginning are nothing, but over time manage to develop into someone better in order to achieve their goals. Also, Mikey has become a very imporant character for me, I can say that in the end, he was pretty much the reason why I read the whole thing.

*I didn't include movies because I would need a whole list to fit all of them, there are so many that I would like to mention.

**Honorable mentions: mushishi, natsume yuujinchou, link click, nge, golden kamuy, pandora hearts, yu yu hakusho, dorohedoro, hxh, naruto, bsd, clamp's works, junji ito's works.

Maze-Chapter One: What's Next? Pt. 7

“Keiko, what’s wrong? Did something happen?” Kuwabara asked, his heart racing upon hearing Keiko in hysterics. “Kuwabara, it’s Yusuke! He’s..he’s gone!” Keiko was able to choke out the words that had been clogged up in her throat from her intense grief. “But they weren’t supposed to disconnect him from life support until Saturday! Hang on Keiko, I’m coming over right now!” Kuwabara immediately grabbed his keys, ready to drive his entire family out to Keiko’s along with dragging Koenma’s ass away from the dating sims he got hooked on. “No Kuwabara, you don’t understand! I came to check in on Yusuke this morning and his bed was empty! Someone stole Yusuke!” Keiko explained fully as the police could be heard questioning medical staff about the disappearance. 

 “Jesus Christ! Did the cameras catch who did it!?” Kuwabara was trying to wrap his mind around someone taking Yusuke’s body like that and without being detected. “No..that’s the thing, the cameras at the hospital were tampered with, none of them filmed who took Yusuke from his life support!” Keiko could be heard trying to take in a breath from how hard she had been crying since the abduction happened.

 “Hang on, I’m going to load my family into the car along with Koenma. I’ll try and get Kurama up from work too. Boys, there’s no School for today!” Kuwabara begane getting his family out to the car, ready to call in the school for his sons’ absences today. “I’ve tried, his workplace said Kurama called in his vacation time and I haven’t even been able to reach Kurama’s cell phone either.” Keiko said as Kuwabara came to the realization hours too late as he dropped the phone.

 “No…Kurama…he wouldn’t…would he…” Kuwabara stared into the wooden void of his living room floor, knowing just how true the horrible answer was. On the road, having been five hours since driving, Kurama took a deep swig from his energy drink, carefully making his way to Genkai’s estate. The adrenaline had been doing a pretty good job at keeping Kurama awake while he drove. In the back, carefully hooked up with plants to keep him alive was the stolen Yusuke. It had been a major task to smuggle Yusuke out after planting some seeds into the security system to disable the cameras. Even though the muscular entropy from years of being still was an issue, Kurama had managed to wire Yusuke up to a plant species he had been crosspollenating and splicing for a while, acting like a brace that made Yusuke’s legs move on with Kurama’s direction. It was almost like that rather morbid film about a pair of friends having to pretend a dead body was alive for a weekend, except the body in question was still very much alive. The balloon-like plant over Yusuke’s mouth inflated and deflated as it breathed air into the former spirit detective while the radio played an old song from the early 90s in the background. Silently following the van was Hiei who had witnessed the theft and had been keeping track without Kurama noticing, likely from the fact Kurama was too focused on Yusuke at the moment. It was going to be a messy phone call to Mukuro to explain why Hiei hadn’t returned as promised.

=======================================================================

 Ophiuchus watched the table maze reform into the shape of the terrane Kurama was traveling along, watching the little crystal fox figurine moving along. The serpent watches carefully, the moment the fox figures out the combination to enter that neighboring universe, his navigators will be able to replicate that for the dimensional jump. Breakfast laid upon Ophiuchus’s table was not unlike that of a sailor, strong in vitamin c and protein to carry through the day as Virgo reapproached the throne room, looking visibly upset about something. This expression caught Ophiuchus off guard as he lowered his mug of grog to focus on his sister’s report.

 “We’re getting a transmission request from the Nursery Island of Mag Mell. Ophiuchus, I think you’ve managed to aggravate Tethra to a new level, you know how he can get when an incubation cycle arrives.” Virgo gave Ophiuchus a very strong pleading look to abort the plan to no avail.

“Patch me through to Tethra, I should be able to handle him in a proper Queen to Queen communication.” Ophiuchus got up from his table, ready to deal with the Mag Mell Queen, Tethra, by any means necessary. 

 “Ophi, this is Mag Mell we’re talking about here, a Nursery Island. They’re armed to the teeth to protect the developing aisling in its care if Tethra deems us a threat right now.” Virgo broke the formalities as she attempted to reason with her brother, but once more, Ophiuchus didn’t budge on the decision.

“I said patch me through, I will handle Tethra and it will be alright.” Ophiuchus glared a bit at his sister, there was going to be no insubordination on his damn island.

 “This is going to end in a Queen fight and a major diplomatic incident. I will do as you’ve requested, but you have been warned multiple times.” Virgo began the patching through of telecommunications via the globe in the corner, giving up that her brother’s sense of justice was clouding his judgment.

 The globe in the corner flickered to life as a project beamed itself in front of Ophiuchus who stood straight up with his arms folded to the back. Staring back at Ophiuchus was a humanoid man with iridescent wings that shifted like a sunset with splotches of green speckling it. His navy hued black hair was tightly braided back in a clean and orderly to match the clean cut outfit he wore. The eyes glowed an acid green tone as soft pattern hexagons reflected in the angered expression on the fae’s face. Tethra was truly a majestic sight to behold, even when enraged and in protection mode, something that reminded Ophiuchus of how Mac Lir was back when he was running Tir Na Nog. 

 “Ophiuchus, what is the meaning of this intrusion? You know the treaty between our kind and the Earth deities, there cannot be two islands at the same time during an incubation cycle. This will give the Earth deities here the right to use arms if they detect you here, do you understand that?” Tethra growled in anger, not thrilled that a breach in the treaty had happened at a most delicate moment.

 “I understand the implications, but Nibiru needs to be here, we need to enter the neighboring universe to it since it has been shut off.” Ophiuchus kept his composure in front of Tethra who was not looking too thrilled at the reason for it.

“If it had been shut off, then why pursue it? It goes against the hospitality code of conduct.” Tethra pressed, the threat of the hospitality code being broken got his full attention in the worst imaginable way.

 “Because we detected Crom Cruach’s signal coming from that blocked off universe. We cannot ignore this, Crom Cruach must be collected for trial for what he had done to Tir Na Nog and those scattered across the multiverse.” Ophiuchus said, expressing hope that he would be supported in this pursuit by Tethra in this regard.

 “As much as I want to go after the Queen responsible for the loss of my brother, Mac Lir and what had been done to his island, I cannot condone you breaking the code. It’s painful, your island being the only one created by Tir Na Nog to never see a sister island come from it and to lose that mother island suddenly. Ophiuchus, I will show you mercy by letting you stay for a day before we chase you out to the interdimensional plane before the local deities do.” Tethra’s hardened look softened upon learning the reasoning, partly of empathy of wanting to do the same and pity for the first born of Tir Na Nog wanted revenge.

“A day is all I need Tethra for this to work.” Ophiuchus agreed to the term, having confidence that an enraged and very vengeful fox youkai of unadulterated infamy could break the barrier within that time span.

“You have been warned, whatever happens next, understand that you will be held accountable by the others for breaking the hospitality code.” Tethra warned before concluding the feed, needing to get back to overseeing the developing aislings in their pods.

 “Ophi, you cannot be serious, we were given a chance to leave now and not deal with bombardment. You’re risking everyone on this island for that son of a bitch!” Virgo was flabbergasted at the sheer blindness of Ophiuchus who simply went back to dine on breakfast.

 “It’s a risk worth taking, I’ve motivated Kurama into doing what I wanted. Don’t you want to see justice being brought upon the fae who sank Tir Na Nog and the loss of Mac Lir? He needs to pay for this treachery.” Ophiuchus clanked his mug of grog down, annoyed that this topic was still continuing.

“Don’t you think I’ve thought about that? I know how much you miss Mac Lir, I miss him too and everytime we opened our island to the aislings of Tir Na Nog in the past, I know we should’ve pressed harder to communicate with Mac Lir. With that now said, we have to move on with our existences and hope one day we are able to locate Mac Lir. Ophi, we need to let this go, this isn’t what Mac Lir would’ve wanted and provoking that fox has me on edge from what I understood from his file.” Virgo attempted one last fleeting time to get through to her brother, but once more, that anger clearly took its roots rather deeply in his judgment.

 “You may want to move on, but I simply cannot, Virgo. Not when we have this opportunity staring right at us and finally get that justice that has been long overdue. Inform the rest of our siblings on what our course is and I will do the same for my spouse. Besides, no outsider has ever managed to reach our island, that fox can be angry all he wants about it, but he’s still getting what he wants in the end.” Ophiuchus went back to monitoring the crystalline fox figurine to learn how to get into the neighboring universe.

“As you say Chantecleer, but know that you’re seriously tempting Reynard with your calls. It’s going to backfire one way or another.”  Virgo warned as she left her brother to his own devices, hoping that things will not explode violently out of hand.

Personalization Prompt #2 – ShoheiAkagi

So, for the reader appreciation day of the event, I used the second personalization prompt for the lovely @shoheiakagi! As always, their blog is definitely a recommended K blog for any fans and the person themselves is wonderfully supportive! I hope they’ll enjoy 😊

BLACK: what face claim from an anime, comic book, or cartoon do I associate with you?

So, though you’re Lenalee Lee in The Ever Young, when it comes down to the image of you I have in my mind, the closest face claim I could come up with was Nana Komatsu. I don’t know much about the character themselves, I’ve mostly just seen the amazing artwork of the manga, but she has the colouring and the sort of elegant but sweet ‘good girl’ look to her I imagine you having.

WHITE: what flame type and box weapon do I think you’d have in the khr!verse?

Hmm, this was a fun one to think about for you, especially since KHR isn’t a universe I’ve pictured you in a lot, as it’s not one of the fandoms we share in common! I do think you’d be a Cloud Flame user though, with your box weapon animal being a pair of swans, one white and one black! I’m using both just imagery and the spiritual meaning behind swans and I think it’s a pretty cool box weapon for a cool person 😊

RED: what aesthetics do I associate with you?

High heels clicking along crowded city sidewalks. Head held high, confidence and elegance. Imagination and longing for something beyond just this one life. Pastels and sweetness combined with wicked grins. Angels and demons, the juxtaposition of good and wickedness. The draw of a danger. Remembered love. Freshly manicured fingernails. Cocktails. Velvet and steel, softness and strength. Concerts, packed full of people, the energy at an all time high.

BLUE: what are three songs I’d put on a playlist for you?

DATE WITH THE NIGHT, yeah yeah yeahs

BEST OF ME, morningwood

I LOVE MYSELF TODAY, bif naked

YELLOW: what fictional world out of all my fandoms would I picture you in?

Of course, the answer is really obvious here in that it’s K Project! Not only is it the fandom we share and talk most about, but before I even put it up on my fandom to write list, I was following your K blog.

GREEN: who would I pair you with out of all my fandoms?

For KHR, it’s Dino. For K Project, it’s Shouhei. For Nanbaka, it’s Uno. For Welcome to Demon School, Iruma-kun, it’s General Furfur. For Bungou Stray Dogs, it’s Tachihara. For Servamp, it’s Mikuni. For Saiyuki, it’s Gojyo. For Eyeshield 21, it’s Hiruma. For Ronin Warriors, it’s Sage. For Kekkaishi, it’s Makio. For GetBackers, it’s Kazuki. For Black Cat, it’s Jenos. For Karneval, it’s Tsukitachi. For Gangsta., it’s Worick. For Bleach, it’s Renji. For Naruto, it’s Kakashi. For Deadman Wonderland, it’s Yo Takami. For Ouran, it’s the twins, both of them. For Durarara, it’s Izaya. For Yu Yu Hakusho, it’s Yusuke. For Gintama, it’s Takasugi. For Mystic Messenger, it’s Saeyoung. For Ikemen Revolution, it’s Dalim. For Blush Blush, it’s Eli. For Date Warp, it’s Linds. For Hatoful Boyfriend, it’s Kazuaki. For The Outsiders, it’s Dally. For Class of the Titans, it’s Neil. For Ultimate Spider-Man, it’s Flash. For Gravity Falls, it’s Stan. For The Mighty Ducks, it’s Portman. For The Covenant, it’s Pogue. For Jungle Fury, it’s R.J. For Ninja Storm, it’s Hunter. For Mystic Force, it’s Xander.

PURPLE: what gif reminds me of you?

PINK: if you were an AU, what type of AU would you be?

Just because I have an AU inspired by your ideas on this, it’s definitely a delinquent! AU with strong bad boy meets good girl romance vibes.

RAINBOW: if i were to write a khr sequel, following Tsuna’s demise, and could only use my reader’s as characters, who would you be?

I see you as the next head of CEDEF. You stand apart from the family, but are a strong and supportive resource for them whenever you’re needed and your intelligence and good leadership skills allow you to supervise and recruit people into the division.

Teaser #3 - “Animal Instinct”

Details under the cut!

“The forest is at its most beautiful at night. Kurama has always thought so.

Moonlight peeking through the black clouds and washing the foliage in shades of blue; the quiet stillness other than the trees swaying with the gentle push and pull of the wind; the shadow play of the growing greenery’s silhouettes. All of it is lovely, quiet, and feels like home.

Evergreens stand tall around him, and he touches the trunk of the closest one. He can feel the soothing fuzz of the moss that covers it and the contours and ridges of the bark. The scent of the pines fills the air and brings that familiar sense of serenity—freedom.

For now, the spirit fox is free, as he should be.

Kurama presses his face against the moss and breathes in deeply, peaceful and at rest. The lichens tickle his ethereal white fur.

He paws at the ground to feel the flesh of the earth, damp and covered with a blanket of pine needles. The moon peers at him from between the trees, glowing and full amongst a sea of stars. Away from the city lights, they glitter and shine in the black sky. Kurama gazes back at them, glad to see old friends.

With a cathartic screech, he breaks into a thunderous sprint. On all fours he’s fleet of foot, effortlessly weaving through the mazes and thickets of the woods.

It’s been a long time.

He runs for what feels like an eternity, and his mind is clear for the first time in over a decade. No ruminating thoughts, no guilt, none of the weight of his human heart.

Tonight he sheds the ruse to run free.

The ambience of his surroundings make music, a symphony of the sounds of nature. He can feel the very heartbeat of Ningenkai every time his feet hit the ground. Faster and faster still, he bounds through the darkness and savors the ephemera of this moonlit night.

Kurama suddenly slides to a stop as a wall of rock—no, a mountainside—comes into view. It’s strangely out of place, though he can’t quite grasp the reason why. He looks to his left and right and sees an endless amount of stone.

There’s a dense patch of trees at the bottom of this mountain. He chooses a particularly wide one to be his place to settle for the time being. When he glances back up at the mountain, it towers over him, inconceivable in its size.

Nowhere left to run, Kurama curls up to lie down in the bed of pine needles underneath the tree. His tail wraps around him for warmth and comfort, red eyes slowly blinking closed as the whistling breeze and the soft rustling of the forest sing him to sleep.”

This is from a very long multi-chapter story that I’m hoping to begin posting by January. High romance Kurahi, mostly canon compliant, and a labor of love complete with original artwork! 💕

Fanfiction _ Yu Yu Hakusho

Fictober 2022/ Prompt #2: “Nobody warned you about me?”

Summary: Yusuke's reputation keeps challengers showing up even when he's been out of the game all these years.

.........

Yususke Urameshi couldn’t help but laugh. After all these years, he still had humans and demons alike challenging him to boost their ego and reputation. The young man in front of him now looked like all the others – tough guy wardrobe, big muscles, and a cocky attitude. Yusuke shook his head, crossing his arms across his strong chest, and leveling his piercing green gaze at the younger man.

“Shop’s closed, son. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll head out now.”

The young punk threw his head back, guffawing more for show than humor. Yusuke drew his lips into a tight line, arching a brow. “What’s the matter, old man? Nobody warned you about me?”

Yusuke sighed. “Son, seriously. Do yourself a favor and get.” He thrust his head in the direction of the door knowing full well the punk wouldn’t use the exit willingly.

“If you’re too afraid just say it, old man.” The younger man flexed his fists.

Yusuke levied a steady gaze at him. “It’s not you I’m scared of, son.”

From the stairs above a shrill, exhausted voice broke the silence. “YUSUKE URAMESHI! IS THERE A REASON YUMI AND RAE ARE COVERED IN FLOUR? I JUST BATHED THEM!”

Yusuke thrust a finger at the ceiling, reading the young man’s confused expression. “That’s who you should be afraid of, son. My wife, Keiko. We’ve got two under four, another on the way, this shop, and I forgot to get her favorite ice cream on the way home. You really wanna start something right now?”

The younger man looked thoroughly confused. “B...but… you’re the great Urameshi?”

Yusuke inclined his head to the side. “Yeah, well, the great Urameshi has bills, a mortgage, and a family now. The only “great” I really care about is where my family is concerned, so could this wait?”

The look of complete devastation on the young punk’s face said it all. This was the future? Was it his future, too? “Listen, son,” Yusuke said a bit more gently than intended, “I’m proud of my past, and all I achieved, but don’t think for a second I did it on my own. I had folks helping and believing in me every step of the way, and she,” he thrust his finger to the ceiling again, “was there from the very beginning. If you’re half as lucky as I was you’ll be somewhere like this in twenty years.”

“I will?” The younger man’s voice had jumped in pitch, and sounded so meek and bewildered. It matched the complete shock on his young face.

Yusuke grinned. “Hell, yes. I wouldn’t trade this life for anything.” A crash upstairs followed by Keiko’s shriek made both men freeze in place.

“You’re crazy, man,” the young man claimed before darting out of the shop.

Yusuke shrugged, heading for the steps. Maybe the kid was right, but Yusuke meant what he said. He wouldn’t trade the life he had now for anything.

since i’ve never asked: what made you want to get into writing? did you write stories as a kid? if so, did any of the ideas or characters from childhood creations evolve and stick around? was there a moment you realized you wanted to write professionally/as a career? (i hope today goes quick and that you take care of yourself 💚)

Hello!!! Okay, getting into a long answer that I’ve tried to summarize.

I’ve always written! My first memory of writing is scrawling stories about Pokémon onto notebook paper, and I recall using the family desktop to write a story about a girl pulled into the land of unicorns. She was a princess and she had to save the whole world. Her name was Kitten!

I also have been writing fan fiction for as long as I can remember, from when I would craft entire new leagues of Sailor Scouts to doing in-depth stories for Yu Yu Hakusho. I was a weird kid and distinctly recall a Yu Yu Hakusho and Silent Hill cross over. 😌

I started dabbling with writing for money when I was sixteen and trying to supplement income for horse feed - and it became a full on profession when I had to stop training and showing horses as my income. Then I realized I could also start writing my own stories professionally, and it was like a whole new world!

What do you earliest characters look like?

This is the Buddy for October 16th. I quite like it. It does look like a two-page spread in a manga I'd enjoy. I'm a big fan.

I am a nerd. I've always been, really, although I'm not blind to the annoying issues there are whatever it is people call nerd culture.

When I was a kid, there was a writer I read a bit of from time to time. I'm not going to name names because I don't want to insult particular people on this tumblr, especially since he doesn't seem to deserve it as far as personality goes.

He published a book, a sci fi novel with a lot of references to action movies of the time. Then he put out an RPG adaptation of the novel, which was what I got my hands on. It seemed like he was into hard science fiction, I was impressed, thought he was a smart guy. I eventually forgot about him until a few years back, when I found out what he had been doing since then.

After the books, he published some comics serving as a sequel/side story to the novel. They were pretty influenced by Rob Liefeld and Jim Lee, comics that my nerd friends usually mocked for their trashy art and horny storylines. And after that, he moved on to manga-style comics ripping off stuff like Dragon Ball, Yu Yu Hakusho and El Hazard. After that he made a set of superhero graphic novels with manga influences, and later a fantasy RPG-inspired webcomic.

So when you see the guy's body of work, it seems like he's just ripping off what's popular. He started out referencing movies of the time, then during the alternative comics boom of the nineties, he turned those hard sci fi concepts into edgy superhero stuff. When manga started really getting big, he forgot about superheroes and started doing more "mature" manga stuff (or at least what we considered to be mature back then. Manga was a lot more adult than superheroes, because of the violence, sex, book length, production model...). Then when Marvel started putting out movies, superheroes were cool again, and he's acting as if he's always been a fan. And now he's following the leader with something RPG and webtoon inspired.

So, looking at the guy, it feels like rather than being a fan who can tell when a work is quality despite it being disposable pop culture, he just looks like a drone spending money and time on whatever it is that's being published, and then scoffing at his old interests when the new stuff comes along.

Of course, even though I don't see myself that way, I am kind of the same. I got into comics during the Kurt Busiek era trade paperback boom - I wouldn't follow monthly releases, but bought the complete stories in a proper bookstore. And although I'm not from the same generation Jack Kirby's original fans are, I got really into his comics by reading reprints and digital publications - I only became a fan because someone decided to publish them.

Even when it comes to manga, I'm not exactly only appreciating quality work - I read it on e-readers (I've had four), which work great for older manga (and for ones that have an extensive and easy to find digital library), so I read a lot of Osamu Tezuka, Shotaro Ishinomori and Jiro Kuwata. I'm surprised when I go to bookstores and find the manga I assumed was super obscure available to everyone.

I could say the big difference between me and the writer guy is that I can percieve a work's quality regardless of how much hype there is around it. But even that is a line of thought that was drilled into me by the companies that decide what to publish. I can read a pirated italian translation of an obscure Osamu Tezuka manga on my generic e-reader and pat myself on the back for being clever and getting it, but that just means when a giant corporation starts airing the anime adaptation of a manga homaging Tezuka, I'll be more likely to watch it. And, even mentioning the guy's name on Tumblr, I'm advertising it (by influencing search engines into bringing his name up).

But, despite that, I still enjoy that stuff a lot. I think there's real quality into the work people who create comics and manga put in, and that it's an underappreciated artform. I could say, be it referring to comics from ninety years ago, or from a writer my own age, that the quality's there regardless of the hype. I read the RPG world story by the writer I mentioned and I think, sure, he's just following the lead of a bunch of Isekai stories and webtoons with a similar style, but, still, he's putting a lot of himself into the story. Whether he realizes it, or not.
