The Taiga files

Taiga likes sweet foods. She has a record of eating over 500 chocolate bars without gaining much weight. This has to do with her high metabolism levels and muscle density.

Taiga has a hypnotizing voice. Most of the women in her family have something called "Canto delle Sirene" (Song of the Sirens). Many who are aware of the Sogno bloodline (Taiga's mother's maiden name) believe that Maria Sogno (a ghostly woman who dwells in Italy's waters) was a siren and/or succubus.

Taiga will wake up in the middle of the night just to talk to Douma. She enjoys his company and admires his strength.

Taiga admiring Douma while he duels with Akaza.

Similar to Muzan, Taiga is very open about her favoritism. (But she's much nicer about it) Whenever Taiga goes to the uppermoon meetings, she rarely talks to anybody but Douma and Kokushibo.

Taiga accidentally called Kokushibo "Dad" once, she was embarrassed about it for weeks and did her best to avoid him by hiding behind Douma.

It was literally that one episode of Brooklyn 99 when Peralta calls Captain Holt "dad"

Taiga barely acknowledges Akaza, constantly getting his name wrong and looking down at him (just like Muzan is with literally anybody 💀). She's only polite to him because of how Douma considers him a "friend"

“What are you, some sort of clown? What's with the shitty tattoos and the pink hair? You look stupid.”

Taiga is the polar opposite when she sees Douma. She acts much sweeter with the blonde more than anybody else. Obviously she respects Kokushibo. (and clearly sees him as family)

“You're so amazing, Douma! Your blood art is so pretty. I wish mine was like that!”

“Too bad the others can't amount to your talent” *stares directly at Akaza with a shit-eating grin*

This obviously pisses a lot of the other moons off. (except for Koku, Nakime, and Muzan, they just tune it out like mature adults)

Taiga can only cook Italian foods, and even then she struggles with it. She can make hella good wine, though!

She often gives Douma the wine to bathe in.

Taiga's love language is giving gifts and physical affection, she loves to show how much she cares through actions. She's no good at verbal affirmations, but that won't stop her from calling a certain blonde cunt the most perfect being alive.

When Taiga refers to Douma as perfect, she isn't talking about the whole god-whisperer bullshit. She's talking about him as a person.

In a nutshell, she's down bad. Down very, very bad.

Taiga really, really likes animals. She's always been able to communicate well with many different kinds of critters, from giant grizzly bears to tiny weasels.

Taiga has often brought small rodents like possums and raccoons to the Eternal Paradise cult, much to the members dismay.

She actually kept a pet mouse named Algernon, which freaked everyone out.

When Douma was informed of this by terrified cultists, he burst out laughing. Never would he have expected Taiga to do something like that!

When Taiga first began to work undercover, she took a Demon Slayer uniform from one of Doma's midnight snacks and followed a certain checkered haori to HQ, where she crashed into a hashira meeting Die Hard style.

Tanjiro had a feeling he was being followed, but had no idea who it was. Taiga is good at hiding in plain sight, so he could only rely on his sense of smell.

She literally broke through a window and flipped her hair in the cuntiest way possible

Kagaya had no idea about Taiga working with Muzan, but the hashira (specifically Shinobu) had a bad feeling about her.

When she got there, she ended up being recognized by Kagaya, who knew her parents from back in the day. (A very long story)

Shinobu was the first one to question her, asking questions about her origins and other stuff.

Taiga simply turned to her and looked at her with the most disrespectful ass response 💀🙏

“Who gave you permission to speak to me? I don't remember asking for your opinion, you disgusting creature. Get out of my sight, you're making me ill.”

Before anything could actually happen, Kagaya the Chad spoke up.

Shinobu, much to everyone's shock, actually pulled out her sword and tried to attack the strange girl out of pure rage.

This is an ability both Muzan and Taiga have. They can manipulate human emotions with a single gaze or phrase. That's why Shinobu got so angry all of a sudden. No human is completely immune to it.

Taiga (finally) offered her "services" to Kagaya. She said she knew secrets about the uppermoons and Muzan that could aid them in the war.

He asked Taiga in literally the kindest way possible and without a trace of anger to not antagonize Shinobu. Surprisingly, Taiga listened and piped down.

Kagaya, after careful consideration, agreed.

Taiga got up, pulled a batman and left in a dramatic yet awesome way.

As she was walking back, two unimportant demon slayers had found her and tried to rob. (and potentially assault her)

Tanjiro had been going on another mission when he spotted this. He recognized Taiga's scent and tried to help her.

But he wasn't needed..

When Taiga came back to the cult, she was immediately pulled into a hug by a "worried" Douma.

Her soul left her body. All her brain could think of was "Man tiddies Man tiddies Man tiddies Man tiddies Man tiddies-"

Luckily, Douma let her go before she passed out.

Being the little shit he is, Douma pointed out her red face.

Taiga immediately replied with "it was hot outside 😃" even though it was snowing. Fucking dumbass-

Before Douma could unintentionally push her buttons some more, Nakime teleported a letter to her. It read:

"Send me all the information you gathered. I don't care how you do it, but it must be done quickly."

Muzan can't read Taiga's mind like he can with his uppermoons, he can only sense her emotions and has to guess what she's thinking. (Which pisses him off a lot)

Here ya go!

Your OC accidentally helped a mob boss change a flat while transporting a corpse and was rewarded with a "favor." They then find themselves in a position where they need to make that call. -Is it a successful mission or does it require a few steps to complete?

(Thank you~! I got super into this one, lol - kinda dark warning. And sorry if it's confusing; read the chapter 'The Best Years Of Our Lives' for some more context)

---

She thought she had escaped this life.

But deep down, Taiga knew all along that that was most likely just wishful thinking.

It had been years, but she would have preferred if it had been a lifetime if she never had to be involved with another gang in any way again.

Yet here Taiga was.

'How do I get myself into these situations...?' She thought; bemused.

She just had to have been outside the woods at this moment to see the near accident caused by an almost blown tire. Just HAD to be so friendly. Unassuming. Nonchalant, and helpful...

To a mob boss.

Better than acting erratic, she supposed, and kept trying to just act normal.

Not that this situation was normal in the first place.

If anyone even glanced at these two, eyebrows would be raised at the very least.

Thankfully it wasn't someone from who she used to run with...

Unfortunately though, this mob boss knew who she attacked the day that her old crew was killed.

Taiga didn't want to kill that man.

But that panicked voice in her head stated that maybe she should have.

Either way...

This explained more on why there wasn't really any freak out or question regarding her appearance.

The only reason Taiga even found out this person is a mob boss, is because they flat-out said it.

They decided to continue their quest in oversharing, because now Taiga was aware that there was a BODY inside their vehicle.

Why her. Why now.

Why EVER.

On the outside, Taiga seemed calm, cool, collected.

And she surprisingly continued to keep it together as her clustered thoughts of 'godthisisitthedayidie-' and resurfacing flashbacks of that night were temporarily interrupted.

Instead of anger, what she was met with was a snide, yet impressed tone after they were done laughing.

But Taiga found nothing humorous about this.

"Ain't life downright ironic...?

Surprised a little thing like you could pull that off. But I think this works out in our favor. We can help each other out here..."

Taiga barely swallowed; her mouth having gone dry.

There it was.

But she knew by the boss' tone that it wasn't a request.

She held back from following any instincts to book it, and chose to hear them out for now.

"...How?"

Taiga's voice came out soft, yet firm.

"Well... I may or may not have come into new power lately.

Been working my ass off to get there, but then I was thrown under the bus after everything I've done...

So, you know what I said?"

Their tone was borderline manic and chilled Taiga to the core. Even after dealing with Séthyan, some things she still could just never get used to.

Yet she continued staying unflinching as the body's identity was revealed to her.

Physically.

The previous mob boss that was splayed out before her, still had that chunk of his ear missing from when Taiga bit it clean off back then...

She felt herself slipping into that familiar pit of suffocation; slowly spacing out some after witnessing the state his body was in.

He sure wouldn't be recognized. This crime was enacted with clear hatred.

The only reason Taiga did was because she could never get his face, body type... Right down to his damn voice, to leave her fragile psyche.

It came flooding back once again. Even after all this time, she could tell it was him. But she was slightly brought back to this harsh reality as the mob boss giggled, saying they answered their own question in a mocking manner:

"Screw "loyalty!!!""

Especially as they spat that last word with such vemon; like remembering part of an oath that was once taken and became tarnished.

Taiga felt nauseous, but just blankly stared off at nothing as her eyes glazed over.

It's all she could do right now.

"I'm willing to forgive your own egregious debt, since this-"

They continued, grabbing onto the deceased man's hair; yanking up and jerking his head around violently before throwing it back down against the vehicle's door.

"-PUTZ decided to be smart and fuck around with me too.

No one seriously cared about you anyways!!! You don't have anything smart to say now, do ya!?

DO YOU!?!"

They took a moment to "collect" themselves after yelling at the corpse like it could hear, but Taiga could still see the truth inside those eyes...

"But only if you keep your mouth shut and don't leave any open ends...

Then maybe I'll be nice and do ya a solid in return~

I really need this to go off without a hitch. But I'm sure the rest of the boys will listen to reason..."

As the fractured soul rambled off to the point of incoherence, Taiga's own fragmented self could see they were antsy and in a bit of a rush, but she honestly couldn't bring herself to care if their plan worked or not.

It most likely wouldn't. Especially with their attitude.

They seemed to react on impulse over rationality, and were hanging by a taut thread at this point.

But Taiga wouldn't dare test its strength.

Even if they seemed sloppy and blabbed about things they probably shouldn't...

People can surprise you.

She didn't feel bad for the dead man, or whoever this self-proclaimed newest mob boss was, though.

Did not feel an ounce of sadness for any of them.

Taiga could understand deep down. Really, she could.

But she was tired.

And she'd never excuse any of this shit.

She just wanted to be done with it all and go back to her happy life that she FINALLY achieved.

Even if Taiga was scared, she would fight tooth and nail each time that she needed to, to keep her life that way.

She didn't want to go against her morals, buy what else could she do here without getting murdered as well?

A voice inside her barely stuck in the thought of 'Maybe that would be for the best' before she smothered it back down inside of her.

As Taiga refocused enough, she agreed, much to the "mob boss'" delight.

And Taiga figured that she might as well try and go for it since they seemed serious in their own way.

If they were, and could somehow pull it off, then...

"Please... If it's not to much to ask..."

She forced herself to go on, despite feeling like she was choking on the vowels of her words.

"I would just want my identity, along with my friends', to be protected.

I know you know enough about me, and I'm done being used by others, and running.

I just want to live in peace.

That's all I ask of you."

She couldn't take it if some ignorant person called the government to run even more tests on her, etc.

She was lucky enough to escape all that, along with any other form of publicity really.

Taiga knew the "cosplay" and makeup excuses, along with any others, could potentially run its course but...

Couldn't she **please** at least just have a somewhat "regular" life for just a little longer?

"I'll take this to the grave."

Taiga looked up into those **icy** irises as they stared right back without a beat; her own now a slight shine of red to them at the intense emotions simultaneously flowing throughout her core.

"Done."

The churl raised a brow as they simply said that with a smirk.

Overall they seemed pleased it wasn't anything to do with money.

That was one thing.

But life isn't always so easy.

"Glad to see someone has a head on their shoulders."

Taiga heard but wasn't paying as much attention anymore. Not by choice, really. She was just losing even more of her nerve as the seconds ticked by.

She also had a feeling she'd be taken advantage of if they were given the chance, despite the words that were so slyly spoken.

Especially if their plan failed.

They didn't really even hide the slimy tone that made things obvious from the start...

Taiga usually preferred honesty without games beforehand, but she wasn't ready for this.

Then again, could she have ever been "ready?"

...

For now, she just shook their hand as her own was firmly grasped.

Taiga could've sworn she was shaking by now, but everything...

Even the air itself was too numbing against her skin.

It was all too much.

...Who cared...

It didn't take long for them to get situated and back in their driver's seat.

"I'll see you around, then...

Taiga."

As they gave a wave, they didn't bother to look back, but grinned wide before revving their engine and speeding off; dirt spraying from underneath the now perfect looking tires and almost hitting Taiga.

For once, her own nickname being spoken gave her more dread than her real name that she could barely ever stomach to hear.

As the crushing weight of paranoia fully engulfed her...

Taiga just started to head back to her cottage afterwards, before she had a meltdown outside; her movement akin to a zombie's.

The questions and doubts flowed free, like a dam was destroyed in her brain.

She couldn't bring herself to try and be positive anymore.

Taiga was currently alone, and too deep into this pit to climb out of on her own.

And as soon as she got into her bed and underneath the covers...

She sobbed.

I saw a post in Korean on twitter that said something like "no matter how much I think about it, there has to be something more to Taiga's admiration of Kazuki." and I didn't feel like I should reply to them because it would absolutely get lost in translation, but I wrote up a post that I put in my circle instead. This is that post, if anyone is interested? This is probably the most character analysis I've done in my entire life lmao.

I think it would be disrespectful for me to randomly reply to this person, but I extremely want to reply "Of course there is [something more to his admiration], he's gay!" There's no world where Taiga isn't gay coded! Other than Louis he's the most gay character in King of Prism! Now I'm going to explain why I think this. :D

I know the 10? people in my twitter circle will not read this and not care, but it's important! Taiga is gay! Taiga's entire backstory is that when he was a child he met a street dancer who was really nice to him, and fell madly in love with him. It was his first childhood crush.

Later in life he finds out the performer became a famous celebrity, and he changes the course of his life to follow in his crushes footsteps. He's known for buying Kazuki's merch, and even wears his buttons on his uniform every single day.

(K Kazuki button + green bracelet)

There's plot and stuff I don't want to get into, but once he becomes a fellow student with Kazuki he makes it his mission to protect him. He puts himself in harms way for Kazuki, all the while continuing to look up to him and do his best to make him proud.

The two's birthdays are one day apart, and during Taiga's own birthday song for the game he wishes a happy birthday to Kazuki instead of himself! Like ??????????

But ok maybe you think, that's not gay he just idolizes Kazuki. Well maybe it was that, until SSS came around.

In SSS Taiga admits most of this backstory while naked in a bath with his friends, and when he realizes what he said he makes this fucking blushy face and freaks out.

Idk bro this is GAY PANIC if I've ever seen it.

BUT IF THAT'S NOT ENOUGH! This episode ends with Taiga having a confrontation with Kazuki, where all his friends encourage him to "Tell him your feelings." Taiga starts, but hesitates too much and loses his opportunity.

And that would be all, except in King of Prism: All Stars they run a call and response section where the audience repeats some of Taiga's famous lines. As a funny moment they added an alternative version of that scene, where TAIGA ACTUALLY CONFESSES.

Now I'm American, and I'm a gay man who specifically imagines all the characters in the media he likes as gay, but you can't tell me that this situation shouldn't be read as "they can't directly say he's in love with Kazuki, the show would be canceled."

So anyway if you don't think he's gay after this scene you're homophobic. ;) I'm kidding, everyone has their own interpretation of the characters, and I hope you enjoy mine!

If you'd like we can talk about how Kakeru is madly in love with Taiga at another time.

Chapter 7: Commit To the Bit

Commit To the Bit: A Danny Gonzalez tale sequel

Chapter 7: Jarvis kidnapped???!!!??? *CHOKING HAZARD: IF UNDER 3 NOT ADVISED* 😨

Sequel to Lost In the Rainforest: A Danny Gonzalez Tale

Overall story description: After being returned home Danny Gonzalez works to find the rat that kidnapped him, and in the process discovers disturbing secrets about the workings of the government, and finds they may have had a hand in his abduction. What will he do after learning about their plans? Will he find Marcelle? Will he save all of his friends?

"Jarvis is gone! They kidnapped him!!!"

Danny gasped! "What! How? I thought it was safe here!" Danny exclaimed. "Well, it turns out there was an imposter and while Jarvis was distracted they kidnapped him!" Amy cried, "It was all caught on our security cameras."

"We have to find who did this and take revenge!" Drew said. "We do have security camera footage of the whole thing, but we don't recognize who did it." Amy said. "Is there any way we can help find him?" Jordan asked. "Well, yes"

Amy led them to a dark room with at least thirty screens. All of the screens were playing Danny Gonzalez videos. "Hello Ms. Tech person can you please play the footage of Jarvis being kidnapped please." Amy asked politely. "Oh, um, s-sure" She said, clearly star struck from Danny's presence.

"Now, see if any of you can recognize who was kidnapping Jarvis." Amy frowned. The video began to play on all thirty screens.

Jarvis was walking down a large hall, and was talking to himself, "How am I supposed to find Gooby in the Siberian taiga? I guess I should buy one of those big jackets." He mumbled, staring at his phone. When suddenly a man emerged!

He was holding a butterfly net but the perfect size for a Jarvis and had a rat costume under his arm. He snuck up behind Jarvis and quickly put the net over his head! "What is going on!" He yelled! "If you cooperate I will give you expensive items!" The man said.

"No! I don't want expensive items right now! I need to help my friend!" Jarvis said. Honestly Jarvis seemed more irritated than afraid. "You must wear this rat costume." The man said, "I have to deliver you in the rat costume! I will get a commission if I do!" Jarvis and the man struggled more, mostly pushing and shoving. "Okay, okay!" Jarvis huffed, "If I cooperate will you stop pushing me and take this net off my head?" The man nodded and took the net off of Jarvis's head.

"Where are you taking me?" Jarvis asked. The man came closer, looked around them in a paranoid manner, and whispered to Jarvis the location he was taking him! The man moved back, "Now, put on the rat costume!" The man said annoyed.

"Can I just wear the hat? It's too hot to wear a rat costume like that." The man nodded again and Jarvis put on the rat hat. "Follow me!" The man said, and Jarvis followed him, but as the two of them began to walk away Jarvis turned his head and looked directly at the security camera! He then mouthed something, and then walked away. The video ended, and the screen faded to black.

"I can't believe this!" Danny cried. Everyone was very upset seeing something so horrible. "Jarvis must be terrified." Eddy blubbered, barely holding back tears. "Get it together! We have to find this freak!" Kurtis commanded, also barely holding back tears.

"So, does this mystery man happen to ring a bell with any of you?" Amy asked, "Anything?" All of them looked at each other, and everyone was quiet. Amy sighed, "It's okay guys. We'll find him."

Danny looked around, and saw all of his friends being distraught. He had no idea what to do. They all walked out of the room and went their separate ways. He just walked around the base thinking about everything that had happened.

He thought about how it was all his fault. If he hadn't asked Jarvis to hunt Gooby, none of this would have ever happened. He thought about the rat suits, and sparkling water.. He thought about how afraid Jarvis must be, being kidnapped and all, and somehow he found himself at a large window in the rebel base.

He looked at all of the dirt, sand, and the sun. Not much to look at, they were in the desert after all. Danny stared at the sun. "I wonder if Jarvis is staring at the same sun I am.." He thought. He then saw a plane go by. He was suddenly reminded of what had happened to him.

Being kidnapped, being forced to wear the rat costume, gross La Croix flavours, and the rainforest. He remembered all of the times he didn't know what to do, or wanted to give up, but then he also remembered after all of those times a strong motivation, a strength, overtook him. The times adrenaline filled his veins, and electricity his bones. Relentlessness. He has to make this right.

He was going to save Jarvis, no matter what it took, and end this war

Once, and for all.

Author's note: Genuinely sorry for the story image on this one... I can't explain.

-------------

When you returned everyone was laughing at chatting, except for Sonny who was drinking vodka and soda while on his phone. He looked up and saw you both returning, he jumped up to meet you.

“Hey, counselor. I hope Y/N wasn’t too hard on you,” He half laughed.

“Are you kidding me, Sonny?” You scoffed.

“She’s fine, Sonny,” He smirked. “I like a little fire in a woman,”

“Oh?” Sonny’s eyebrows suddenly raised, causing you to give Barba a look. He was blowing your cover!

“I mean, I expect it from Jersey girls anyway,” He flipped his compliment quickly.

“God…” You muttered, looking at the floor. Pick a side, counselor.

“Anyway, um,” Sonny cleared his throat, trying not to think about Rafael and you together. “So when do we do presents and cake? I’ve kind of got an early--”

“I’m sorry, what?” Rafael furrowed his brows at Sonny. “Did you-- Carisi did you really just say that?”

“Do you see a present table? Do you see a giant rat mascot running around?”

“...What? Did I say something--?” Sonny became flustered.

“What do you think this is, a fucking Chuck E Cheese?” He suddenly snapped, causing shocked looks from both you and Sonny.

“I’m sorry Barba, I--”

“Alright that’s it,” You stepped in between the two of them, glaring at Rafael.

“Excuse you?” Rafael crossed his arms.

“Y/N, knock it off,” Sonny hit you softly.

“You have been nothing but rude to my cousin since we got here, Mr. Barba,” You pointed a finger to his chest.

“He was just trying to be nice, getting you a gift out of the goodness of his heart, something you would know nothing about!” Maybe now you were overcompensating.

“Y/N!” Sonny said through gritted teeth.

“What?!” You turned to see everyone at the party staring at the three of you in shocked silence. “Oh…” Your voice turned soft, your face turned red.

“Well,” Rafael straightened his suit and tie, recovering from your little rant. “I guess I should be a gracious host and open it then, shouldn’t I?” He gave you a look.

“...Holy shit,” You heard one of the guests gasp. “That thing is over $1,000! My wife wouldn’t even get me that for Christmas,”

“NO!” Sonny objected rather loudly,. “I mean, that’s not necessary Barba. It’s just a little something, it’s fine,”

“No no, your cousin is right,” He shook his head as he walked over next to Sonny’s chair and retrieved the large gift bag and placed it on the table. Sonny bolted over, you trailed behind quickly.

“No, seriously Barba, don’t,” Sonny began to panic. You suddenly realized how this was going to look, maybe you shouldn’t have pushed.

“Carisi why are you being like--” Rafael was questioning him but was silenced mid-speech when he pulled out the briefcase. His eyes went wide, you swore you heard a few people audibly gasp, You looked around completely lost, finally noticing the absolute horror on Sonny’s face.

“....Is this a Louis Voutton Robusto 2 in Taiga leather, Carisi?” Rafael whispered, running his fingers over the fine leather.

“Oh my god,” You couldn't watch this. Sonny had such a big heart, too big of a heart. He tried so hard...why didn’t you step in sooner?

“Uh y-yeah, sure Barba whatever you want,”

“Carisi, can I speak with you a moment outside?” Rafael blinked rapidly, trying to wrap his head around what was happening right now.

“Do you guys need somewhere to make out?!” An obnoxious man laughed, making the other guests snicker.

“Oh shove it Buchanan,” Rita hit him. “Sonny’s just his puppy,”

“Oh god,” Sonny muttered under his breath as he followed Barba outside. He didn’t know which was worse for people to think right now.

“This is totally inappropriate, why would you even--” He threw his hands over his head. God it was one thing knowing Sonny had a thing for him, but for him to finally make a move like this-- in front of his peers? His colleagues? The audacity.

You wondered if you should follow them. You were the one to cause this mess, after all. Also you really didn’t like the looks you were getting from the rest of the party-goers. You quickly began to follow after them, you could hear Rafael yelling from a mile away.

“What the hell is WRONG with you, Carisi?!”

“I-I’m sorry, Barba I--”

“WHAT?!” Sonny’s eyes instantly went to you. “W-Why would you…? Why would you say that?”

“I’m sorry, counselor I just thought--”

“You just thought what, Carisi?” He growled. “That if you bought some ridiculously expensive gift I’d suddenly realized you were ‘the one’?”

“What?!” Sonny suddenly snapped. “What the-- what the fuck are you talking about, Barba?”

“Uh I don’t know Carisi, maybe the fact that you have feelings for me?”

“What?” Rafael suddenly realized either you were wrong, or he was sticking to denial. Either way, he was probably busted.

“I bought you that briefcase because I want you to like me as a COLLEAGUE, Barba. Do you know what kind of clout you get in our field by being friends with the ADA? And-- And nothing I do ever seems to be good enough, I was afraid you’d never...accept me, unless I…”

“Bribed me?” Rafael asked softly.

“I--I don’t know, I--”

“Well,” Sonny shrugged uncomfortably. “When you say it like that it sounds dirty,”

“Right,” Rafael rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

“....But why, in the fuck--” Sonny crossed his arms now. “Would you ever accuse me of--- of that?!”

“Is it because you have feelings for me and you were hoping I felt the same way but it freaked you out when I made some ‘declaration of love’ in front of all of your work buddies?”

“WHAT?!” Rafael practically screamed. “Absolutely not--”

“I’m just gonna ask you one time, straight out,” Sonny approached Rafael, his stature over him becoming more obvious the closer he got to the ADA.

“Then why? Have I seriously given you an impression that I-- want your cannoli?” He tried to find an appropriate word. And he was genuinely asking, he had made damn sure not to act that way for so long, there was no way he had fucked that up.

“Uh...yes, yes you have,” Rafael tried to bluff. He had no idea how this situation had flipped, or if it was better for Sonny to think he had feelings for him, and not his baby cousin.

“That’s bullshit,” Sonny shook his head with a sarcastic laugh. “I have made damn sure--” He glanced at you again, he knew that look. That was the same look you had when you had broken his mom’s favorite vase and had blamed it on the dog.

“Damn sure what?” Rafael quickly tried to distract him.

“Damn sure you didn’t think that,” He answered hazily, thoughts filling his mind.

“Because you do,” Rafael tried to keep defensive.

“....This isn’t about me, this is about you,” Sonny’s eyes suddenly narrowed as he was quickly becoming aware of the glances you at Rafael were sharing.

“Ohh no I think it’s about--”

“WHY would you accuse me of trying to...seduce you?!” Sonny cut him off.

“Does that sound like something I would do, whether it was true or not?”

“So it IS--”

“DAMMIT, Rafael!” Sonny stomped his foot. He was getting bold now as the wheels started turning.

“What?” Rafael laughed like it was ridiculous, looking everywhere but Sonny’s eyes. “When would she even--”

“...Did my cousin say something to you?” His eyes were narrow, he was scowling between the two of you. Fuck. FUCK. Don’t panic. Keep your cool. Don’t move.

“When you followed her just now?” He crossed his arms again.

Whew. Well, thank God. At least that bullet was dodged.

"Was she? Because it seems like telling you was the worst thing she could do!!!" Sonny snapped.

“....She might have said something along those lines,” Rafael glanced at you with apologetic eyes as he threw you under the bus.

“Wha-- are you kidding me?!” You hissed at him, but Sonny was already fuming at you.

“Y/N!!! What the fuck is wrong with you?!” He started to stomp over to you. “You can’t just throw your assumptions at people, because you think your ‘emotionally stunted’ cousin can’t deal with some confusing feelings he has,”

“Uh…”

“Ya can’t just SHOVE someone out of a closet!” He kept yelling, oblivious to the stares he was now getting. “Especially not to my boss!!!”

“Sonny, I--”

“See I knew it!” Rafael clapped his hands together, trying to rescue you after he threw you to the sharks. “I knew you had feelings for me, I didn’t need her to tell me,”

“FINE,” Sonny threw his hands up. “Fine, Rafael. You win, okay?” He struggled with tears forming in his throat. “Yeah, I’ve had some-- weird, feelings about you. For a while,”

You and Rafael just stared at him while he “came out” to an entire restaurant.

“And alright, maybe I went a little overboard with the gift, my bad,” He shrugged. "But that doesn't excuse Y/N for telling you her conspiracy theories!"

"Carisi…" Barba sighed. "She was just trying to help."

"Y'know what YN, would you mind finding somewhere else to crash tonight, i can't really look at you right now," he sighed as he turned and walked awkwardly out of the restaurant.

"Sonny I am so--" you tried to apologize.

"Well you heard the man," He grinned, totally unphased by what just happened.

"I'm sure he'll--" his face went from a soft smile into a horrified expression.

"Are you fucking kidding me Rafael?" You scoffed at him in disbelief.

"Well at least he doesn't suspect anything between us!" He pointed out.

"Yeah just that I'm a horrible outing twat," you rolled your eyes.

"Aw carino," He pulled you into a soft comforting kiss.

"What's wrong?" You asked softly, afraid to turn around.

"How fucking DARE you say that, Barba. I'm not some fucking jealous teenager, although clearly that's your type,"

"Oh my god..." you heard Sonny's voice behind you. "Oh my God!"

You definitely didn't want to turn around now.

"Are you fucking kidding me?!" Sonny now stormed over to the two of you.

I can't fucking believe you Y/N! What the fuck is this? How did this happen?"

"Sonny I--" You tried to explain,

"And YOU--" He glared at Rafael. "You had the fucking audacity to sit there and start yelling at me for "inappropriate feelings'," he growled.

"Carisi…." Rafael put a hand up.

"What the fuck do you call seducing my baby cousin??" He snarled.

'Look Carisi I know you might be jealous, but--" Before Rafael could finish his sentence, Sonny's fist was hitting his face and he fell to the ground.

"Hey!" You exclaimed.

"This isn't about my feelings, jackass," he went to punch him again but you ran over and tried to pull him off Rafael as a crowd of spectators was forming.

"Which by the way, you have zero worry of those anymore, I'm not into perverts," he spat.

"Sonny!" You gasped. "...the hell is wrong with you?!"

"We're leaving," he instructed you.

"Like hell we are," you went to help Rafael up.

"Sonny, even if you were my dad, I'm a grown woman," you snapped. "You can't drag me out of here like a child,"

"YN," Sonny had that soft, scary, angry tone. "I practically raised you. I'm the closest thing you have to a dad. So when I say we're leaving, we're leaving."

"Either you come with me right now, or I'm disowning you," he threatened.

"Are you fucking kidding me Son?" You laughed at the absurdity of the threat.

"I'll stop paying for your classes at the community college," he threatened.

Well not only did he just threaten your academics but he embarrassed the hell out of you revealing you weren't even in a real college.

"So?" You stood your ground. "Go for it,"

"I'll stop paying your rent," He kept going.

"Well that's--" You started getting nervous.

"I'll stop payments on your car,"

"OKAY," You finally caved. You just wanted to stop revealing what a fucking sad sack you were having him pay for everything, just like a dad.

You looked at Rafael who was standing now, winding his bloody mouth with a handkerchief from a pocket in his suit.

"I'm sorry," you barely whispered with tears in your eyes and throat. The last thing You wanted to do was leave him there but as Sonny so blatantly pointed out, he basically owned you.

You gave him one last long kiss goodbye, to which Sonny made a disgusted scoff.

Rafael gave you a look of pleading, begging you to stay with him while he held onto your hand. You pulled your hand away from him and turned to Sunny

"Alright let's go Son," you said softly trying not to glance back at Rafael.

Sonny nodded triumphantly and walked out of the restaurant with you close behind, leaving Rafael alone.

A McDanno rec list for a new friend. (These are also authors I enjoy, so consider this a blanket rec list.)

The Bareknuckle Poet by pleasebekidding

After a serious accident left Steve temporarily wheelchair-bound, working towards his recovery, he enrolled at Rutgers for a year. He met Danny Williams in his criminology course, wearing pride pins and chipped black nail polish, so sure of himself that Steve found it breathtaking. What happened next redefined Steve's sense of self, his ambitions, and many of his priorities.

Tax Benefits by renecdote

“Everyone already assumes we’re married so maybe we should just...” Danny gestures broadly with his beer. He’s maybe a little bit… Not drunk, but definitely tipsy.

“For the tax benefits.”

Danny gives him an aggravated look. “Yes, Steven, for the tax benefits.”

Danny (jokingly) suggests they should get married. Steve takes him seriously.

ua kaha aku la ka nalu o kuu aina (the surf has pressed upon my land) by icoulddothisallday, TetrodotoxinB

Steve knows, he learned, how a man behaves. He can play his part. Danny, who is a good man and great father, looks nothing like what Steve was taught. Reconciling the two means giving up everything he's clung too for the last two decades, and there's nothing about it that's easy.

*potentially triggery AF (deals with effects of conversion therapy) but beautifully rendered

the art of leaving and saying goodbye by Verasteine

2007 is the year Danny learns that choice can be the worst kind of heartbreak. AU.

*warning for infidelity (not mcdanno)

in jest by apathyinreverie

“No, babe,” Danny shakes his head with a grin. “If the apocalypse were to go down while I’m elsewhere for some godforsaken reason, then you stay put and I’m coming to wherever you are.” His grin widens. “And I expect you to have cleared any aliens or zombies or whatever else might be messing with us off the island and to have set up a nice, comfortable military dictatorship for us to rule over by the time I get back.”

It’s a joke.

Of course it’s a joke.

Until it isn’t.

(A the-day-after-tomorrow-style apocalypse AU, where the world decides to end right when Danny is visiting one of the other islands with Grace. Because, of course, it does.)

not just friendship (romance too) by earthquakedream

Steve's gone and gotten himself a boyfriend. Danny's not sure what worse: the fact that he's stupidly jealous or that he actually likes the guy.

All I Ever Wanted (It Comes with a Price) by leviarty

Steve gets shot. Again. Danny is not okay.

* warning: a young grace shoots someone to protect both herself and a gravely injured steve

After All Our Troubles, We Have This by Banshi13

"I'm ending this," McGarrett muttered after a few moments of silence. "I'm not coming back until Wo Fat is in the ground. I'll dig his own grave and bury him myself if I have to, but my father is dead, my mother is running all over the world in hiding, my sister and I were uprooted from our lives, and now he's got Danny locked somewhere in a basement in the middle of Japan." He looked both Chin and Kono in the eye, deadly resolve in his eyes. "This ends. Now. This is the absolute last time that man interferes with my life and my family."

The Other Guy by haldoor

Danny tells Steve what he thinks is a funny story from when he attended Grace's school play. Steve doesn't think it's so funny; in fact, it makes him jealous.

Strapped by stellarmeadow

Steve's determined Danny's going to be prepared next time.

Warm to the Touch by veronicaluv

Danny didn't think twice about going to North Korea to find Steve. He just didn't know everything would go to hell when they got back.

Me and my heart (We got issues) by SquaresAreNotCircles

“I’m in love with you, Steve,” Danny says. He does it softly, quietly, laying the words into the darkness of Steve’s backyard like they’re something breakable, something to be tiptoed around. “I thought you should know.”

Steve’s heart jumps. It rams against his ribcage so hard it’s going to leave bruises. So hard he startles awake, and he almost yells before he realizes he’s outside because he fell asleep in one of the garden chairs in his backyard again.

how to be gay for your best friend in ten easy steps by commatme

See, the thing is that Danny doesn’t really do gay sex, what with being straight and all, but when Steve says I love you he sounds so earnest he makes Danny want to consider it. Which is crazy, right? He’s pretty sure that’s crazy, or at least a little unhinged.

It’s Not So Easy Caving In by paradis

The one where Danny used to be a heroin addict.

blame it on the ocean view by carryokee

Danny gives in, freaks out, and comes to his senses.

So Have I Loved You by Brumeier

In which Grace has a surprise for Steve's birthday and there's not a dry eye in the house.

take it back to a couple years yesterday by itsrosencrantz

Danny really, really doesn't want to go to his twenty year high school reunion.

Steve decides they're going anyway, and Danny takes it about as well as you'd expect.

View From The Shipwreck by flowerfan

Danny Williams isn’t in a great place – he’s a reluctant transplant to Oahu and an outsider at HPD. Former Navy SEAL Steve McGarrett isn’t doing much better, having suffered a career ending injury. When Danny’s young daughter Grace wanders into Steve’s bar after getting lost on a school field trip, Danny is drawn to Steve, somewhat against his better judgement – he’s got enough on his plate. He’s not exactly sure what Steve sees in him. As they spend more time together, Danny learns how Steve’s injury has changed his life in many ways, but not the most important ones. As one thing leads to another, Danny realizes that things might be looking up after all.

True North by lavvyan

“Tell you what, my dad’s throwing his annual Christmas Ball on Saturday. It’s not a trip to Aspen or anything, but it is nice. Fancy food and everything. You guys should come!”

On the trail of a suspected war criminal, Steve and Danny have to go undercover at a fancy ball. The sacrifices they make for the job.

Oh, and Steve's pining like the taiga. Nothing new there.

outside the lines by withoutwords

“I’m Detective Williams.” Danny says, not trying too hard to keep it smug free. “This is my partner, Detective Mackenzie.”

Ken Doll keeps his arms up, his eyes flickering between them all as if he's only seeing police for the first time. “Good cover,” he tells Danny, and it sets Danny’s teeth on edge.

“This is the part where you say sorry for assaulting a police detective, for compromising an investigation, and for acting like a complete asshole while doing it,” Danny growls, about to change his mind and cuff the guy himself.

“Sorry, Officer.”

The bastard is still grinning.

Boys Like Me, We Try Too Hard by romanticallyinept

Steve's always wound so fucking tight.

And Danny's worried about him. Legitimately worried about him. Because maybe Steve always lays into the perps a little hard, and maybe he follows his own rules and his own morals and doesn't stop to sleep unless his body's actually shutting down around him, but usually, Steve's okay at the end of the day. Usually, Steve's not leaning against the wall of the alley they're in, eyes closed and shaking, with the perp he'd cuffed a minute earlier lying on the ground and crying about his broken nose.

Steve keeps a secret, and Danny does his best to patch him back up when it comes to light.

Transformative by boxparade

“You know, I’d heard you’d changed a lot after high school, but I’ve gotta admit, this is a little weird.”

* trans (FTM) Danny

All the Way by VictoriaAGrey

Danny has lost count of how many times he and Steve have used the sexual tension between them for undercover work, only for it to be bottled away after the op is over. With Saint Michael as his witness, that ends tonight.

Nocturne in C# Minor (featuring Stevie Ray Vaughn) by minor_demimonde

So, to recap, Danny has beautiful eyes, great shoulders, a pleasantly-shaped butt, a delectable mouth, expressive hands, and he smells good.

You know, Steve has gone to bed with women who didn’t have that much going for them.

AU from the beginning of Season 2. The Five-0 task force has been reinstated, but the new governor's determined to shake things up. Facing changes and unexpected betrayals, the team has to work together to face new challenges.

It Ain’t Me Babe (Nah), It Ain’t Me You’re Looking For (Babe) by tourdefierce

A story in which Danny makes lists and can't find his heterosexuality underneath all his homogay, Steve has a lot of faces, Kono is perfect in every way and Chin continues to keep Hawaii safe from the Five-O's general disfunction—Or, a story about Kono being awesome and how she likes her men with hearts in their eyes for each other.

Ratios, Decimals, and Percentages by fuchs

In which Steve takes an internet quiz and slowly loses his mind. Danny's okay with it.

Let’s Dance Like We Used To by AndreaLyn

There isn't a world in which Danny wouldn't go after Grace. So when Rachel moves the family to California, Danny goes with. Steve gets left to process life without Danny.

Gunfire, Rainfall, and Beach Erosion by thegrrrl2002

Steve and Danny are kidnapped. After which there is too much swimming and too much rain and it's all very romantic. If you are Steve, that is.

Moving In (To Every Single Aspect of Danny’s Life, Including the Boring Bits like Dry-Cleaning by westgirl

It felt wrong for Steve to sound unsure of his place in Danny’s life. His place in Danny’s life was at Danny’s side, driving him slowly insane. Steve should feel secure about that.

Always Known What I Wanted To Be by mickeysixx

Grace Williams has always wanted to be a cop.

The Taper Phase by popfly

It’s like being run over by an armored car, like the impact of gunshot to tac vest. The pride Danny feels for his daughter and something else, something about Steve’s tank top sticking to his stomach, the way his shorts stretch across his thighs. The goofy grin that lights up Steve’s face when he sees Danny and Charlie, waving one hand while he nudges Grace with the other.

Pitching Woo by SBG

In which Danny pitches (and then accidentally catches) woo.

clue: four letters, ‘is a many splendored thing’ by armillarysphere

Curiosity Didn’t Kill This Cat by unadrift

"I'm confused," Rachel says. "Are you two dating or not?"

Danny sighs. "You remember that thing with the cat in the box? The one that's both dead and alive?"

"Okay," Rachel says. She clearly has no idea what he's talking about.

When You Get Hit With A Basketball

(N/N)- Nickname

Akaski:

You were waiting in the gym and watching to guys practice. You had your headphones on listening to Waiting for Sumperman and you had them low enough to hear what was going on, so you know when to cheer and clap for them. They were practicing passing drills when it happened. You saw the basketball flying towards you but it was to late and smacked you right in the face, and the force sent you backwards causing your butt to land in the place for feet in the second row.

"(F/N)!" A panicked yells sounds through the gym. It was the voice of your boyfriend Akaski Seijuro. You push yourself upwards and notice something warm and wet was dripping down you face onto your lip. Your hands reachs up to find blood; the basketball had caused a bloody nose. Also you figured there would be a bruise on your nose. "Are you ok?" Akaski asks and the rest of the team stands behind him worried. You move your hand away showing them the blood which was starting to cover more of your mouth. They looked shocked at first, but react quickly rushing to get tissues and something to get rid of the blood. Akaski sits next to you wrapping his arm around your shoulder rubbing your arm up and down.

"(N/N) here are tissues and a wet rag." Hayama say handing you the tissues and Akaski the wet rag. "Also sorry I wasn't paying attention and when Nebuya passed it, it hit you." He apologizes moving back and fourth on his feet nervously while Akaski gets rid of the blood on your mouth and under your nose and your hand.

"It's fine you didn't mean to. Don't worry about Hayama even the amazing and talented Rakuzan basketball team make mistakes. Plus I probably would have ran into something sooner or later getting a bloody nose." You say pressing one one the tissues to your nose.

"Thank you (N/N)!" He say happily giving you a quick hug and went to tell the rest of the team you were fine.

"You sure your ok (F/N)?" Akaski questions helping you up.

"Yeah, but I'm going to head to the girls locker room before I drip blood all over the floor." You grab the rest of the tissues and head to the locker room with Akaski following behind you. He decided not leave you until the blood stopped. To say the least he was slightly freaked when he saw you going crashing backwards and when he saw the blood.

Aomine:

You sat on the bleachers listening to music watching the baseball team practice. You were in your own world listening to Shut Up and Dance and you were singing quietly to yourself. You watch as Aomine makes a basket and you cheer and clap for him. That is when it all goes down hill from there; Aomine was working on passing when he passed it to far to the right. You saw it coming, but you had no chance to react. The basketball was headed straight for you. You felt it slamming into your stomach and you doubled over in pain collapsing to the floor. You let a moan of pain and clutching your stomach.

"(F/N)!" Aomine yells running over to you. You lift you head up to see your boyfriend rushing over and letting a pitiful smile make its way onto your face. He bends down and pulls you into his chest. "Are you ok?"

"Do I look ok to you Aho?" You answer sarcastically groaning from the new wave of pain that was spreading throughout your body.

"So that's a no?" He asks smirking and you just glare at him. "I'm shutting up." He say lifting his arms up in defense, but that was mistake. His arms were holding you and yours were holding your stomach, so you end up rolling off his lap and hitting the floor. You let a hiss of pain from the new wave of pain spreading through your body.

You turn your head in Aomine direction let a harsh glare. "I'm going to kick you sorry ass, so you had better start running." Aomine could tell you were dead serious. He chuckled nervously and kissed your forehead and ran so fast he could have left a dust trail behind him. "Someone get me some ice for my stomach and (F/F) ice cream." You say as loud as you could and you watch as the rest of them rush off getting what you wanted.

Kagami:

You were practicing with Kagami and he was teaching you how to guard. You of course knew how already but you thought it was fun learning the basics once again. You two were having a five minute game and you were trailing by two points. You could tell quickly that Kagami was going easy trying to make things fair. You wanted to show him that you knew what you were doing but you knew better.

You were currently guarding Kagami so he wouldn't score. That is when it happened. He made the a slam dunk shot and it went in of course , but you choice to turn your back on the basketball that had been slammed towards the ground. It bounced off the court and hit you in the back of the head. You could feel it hitting your head and falling forward. Kagami catches you before you hit the ground.

He lays you on the ground, "(F/N)! Are you ok? Can you hear me?"

"I can hear just fine Taiga, but the its the back of my head that hurts." You respond sitting up and rubbing the back of your head wincing in pain every time your hand pressed too hard on the spot the ball hit.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. It was an accident; I didn't think that it would do that." Kagami apologizes.

You let out a sigh and give him a kiss on the cheek. "It is fine. But you owe me an ice cream got it."

Kagami smiles nods his head. "Got it!" You laugh at him.

Kise:

It was normal practice. Kasamatsu-senpai was beating up Kise for being and idiot and having all his fangirls around cheering and scream like, as he puts it, banshees. You were also starting to become annoyed with them also, but you didn't say anything. You put you headphones on and listen I Want Crazy while watching the practice go on. You saw a good warm up that you decide to mention to Emma later on. It was one you had seen before. The would do different passing drills depending on what number the couch would yell.

Now of course you would choose this exact moment to fill your water bottle up. The pass was chest and bounce pass. One of first years threw the ball to hard and his partner couldn't catch it and it was your right side that paid the price for the mistake. You could feel it as impacted your side and when you went down. And you went down hard. You could hear a panicked voice yelling out your name. It was Kise's.

"(F/N)-chin!" Kise rushes over to you. He was in panicked frenzy, and he wasn't sure what to do. He kept shooting your name and other random thing you couldn't make out . Kasamatus was able to kick some sense into Kise and stopped him running around like a headless chicken. You started laughing which just causes more pain so your laughter turned into whimpers of pain.

"I shouldn't have laughed." You mutter to your self

"Do you need anything?" Kise asks bending down by your side. After his car

"Can I have some ice please?" You ask feebly. Kise give you a quick kiss on the cheek and rushes off to get the ice and you just watch as he goes.

Kuroko:

It was normal practice, and you sat on the bleachers watching not knowing what was about to go down. Sasha had gone to fill up the water bottles and you sat listening to Tell Her You Love Her. Of course you were so absorbed in the song you didn't see it coming, but wasn't like you were going to. You something round and orange in your peripheral vision come at but before you could react the left side of you head cheek had a stinging pain running through them and you let out a soft cry of pain reaching up to your face.

"(F/N) are you ok?" A voice asks softly in front of you. You look up to see your boyfriend standing there with his usual poker face but his eyes showed concern.

"The side of my head is going to hurt but I'll be fine." You smiling through the pain you were in.

"Do you need anything?" Kuroko asks.

You think about it momentarily trying to decide if you really need anything, but your face did sting a bit. "Can I get some ice?"

"Of course I'll go get it." Kuroko runs, or as fast as he can run, to go get you some ice. The rest of the team decides to come over and check on you now.

Midorima:

It was a normal basketball practice. Well, normal until Takao started to annoy your boyfriend. At first Midorima was shooting free throws and Takao was working on defense drill, but Takao got bored and went to bug the carrot a bit. Now you and the rest of the team had to hold in your laughter in at the sight; Takao keep poking Midorima repeatedly saying don't miss over and over again. Midorima had enough of it threw a basketball at him which he ducked a missed, but Midorima had plenty more and continued to throw them. Takao keep dodging, but you on the other hand weren't so lucky. One that missed Takao went straight at you, and you tried to duck but it hit your forehead, hard. You let out a yelp of pain going up rubbing your forehead.

"(N/N)!!! I'm so sorry I shouldn't have moved around you then it would have missed you!" Takao wails out hugging the life out of you.

"Takao it's fine, and it isn't your fault." You respond trying to get him off of you so you could breath. Suddenly someone yanks him away. You look up to see Midorima glaring at Takao.

"Do you need anything? It's not like I'm concerned or anything." He asks with a slight blush on his cheeks.

"Can I get some ice, water, and something for a headache please?" You ask smiling. Midorima nods and walks off dragging Takao with him,

Murasakibara:

You sat at practice watching how well team works together. You enjoy watching people and the way the interact with each other, and you could find the smallest detail that most people would miss. But what you failed to realize at the time was the ball that went of course and was now flying through the air right at you. The rest of the team saw it before you did, and you happened to stand up turning you back on it. They yelled your name as fell onto the basketball court from the impact; you felt the slamming pain of something hitting your back hard and it hurt.

You suddenly felt yourself begin lifted up it to the air. You open your eyes to see your boyfriend Murasakibara holding you up begin carful not to touch where the ball had hit you.

"Do you need ice?" He asks gently with a concerned look on his face.

"That would be nice." You respond smiling, "Can we get ice cream after practice also?"

His face lights up at ice cream. "Sure we can, let's go get the ice." At that he carries you to go and get ice so maybe your back didn't hurt to much.

This is not shippy fic much, just everyone caring each other.

It started with some silly Hermit Challenges. Thanks to the jungle bandit’s prank, Catty is now a member of Hermit Challenges. If anyone asked her if she understands how it works, she would shrug because she can’t understand any of the rules at all. It’s weirder to see Mumbo Jumbo call a chicken parrot, but then again, the world she lives is HermitCraft where shenanigans happen. For her first challenge was to get a white fox. Sound easy enough, but now she needs to think twice at her decision.

To get a white fox, you can find them in the taiga biome or a nearby village. Sound easy but doing it is hard. When she arrives at the taiga biome, she can hear a small whimper came from the North; she followed the noise. Halfway there, the scenes slowly turned into a brutal image to see blood spatter on the tree and the snow, making long crimson red trails. Catty can’t hold it but feel sick at this frightful scene, the flash of red reminds her, what happened, but she reminds herself that she is safe now, no need to worry. Walking up more and she saw three wolves, which it’s trapped a white fox, swiftly pulled out her bow and aim at the wolf. Catty takes a deep breath as she releases the flaming arrows as she watches it lands immediately at the leader as the others quickly look where did the arrows come from. She shoots another as a warning for them, a relief to see they leave the fox alone.

Catty slowly reaching out to the fox with a wild berry in her hand, hoping that she can check on the canine. A few attempts later, the fox slowly working its trusting to her, Catty can’t hold it but smile as she watched the fox slowly trusted her. After feeding some berries and examine the wound, Catty pulled her jacket out as she wrapped around the canine and started heading back to her base. When the nights came, it’s getting lots colder. She can feel her hands are stiffening and her legs are trembling, but being stubborn as she is, she keeps moving and ignores the freezing wind hits her body.

The next day, Catty feels like she doesn’t want to get out of her bed. But today they have a weekly meeting and some important stuff to discuss too... Catty let out a small groan as she gets up and stays there for a few minutes before getting up and heading over the shopping district. While flying over there, she may or may not crash into the tree a few times and maybe died few times; people died a lot while flying but died over and over by the same cause? Today is not her day at all. Catty arrived on the roof of the new town hall but hastily falls from the edge, but the bushes save the day as it were underneath to prevent her fail to land. Groaning at her clumsiness, she gazed up at the sky while feeling the greenery bushes underneath her, the longer she stares, the more unsteady she feels. Should she ask Xisuma if she can skip today’s meeting, she can always ask someone to fill her with the news but the thought of trouble someone always roaming in her mind. After a while, some people started showing up, greeting her, and slowly everyone was gathering around the town hall, talking and chatting happily about what they do in the week.

“Hey Cat, are you looking okay there?”

Etho asked, leaning over to looks at her face closely. She has been coughing a lot when he arrives, her face is flushed bright red, but when he tries to reach out to her forehead, she quickly moves back like an instinct.

“Y-yeah, yeah. I’m fine.”

She tries to laugh it off, but she quickly turns away coughing. Etho was going to ask her if she needs any help before Xisuma clear his throat, gathers everyone's attention. Thirty minutes passed, Catty tries to keep her head straight but her body didn't move as she wants, so all she can do is rests her head in her hand, hoping that Xisuma finished the meeting and she can go back home now. Sigh in relief as he finished the last problem but the mayor came up to where Xisuma has stood and has some announced which it takes thirty more minutes. As she listens to him talking about the upcoming project, she can feel her body is aching, her strength is slowly weakening, her visions are getting blurry as she sways and fell to the floor, breathing heavily. She can hear a fainted shout, someone's face, a chilly feeling on her forehead before she went numb.

It’s not her first time getting sick and fainted before. No, when she was small, she would get sick a lot. If her sister gets sick, she would complain a lot, but she has her mother who would kindly make some warm food and telling her with bedtime stories, things that make her younger self craving for her love. But when she gets sick, the only thing she receives from her mother was her nagging for skipping her fencing, blamed her for being the worst “son”, she will always look like her father.

When Catty wakes up, she is no longer feels the heat or sore muscles, she still coughing but not much as she arrives. Everyone was around her, sleeping on the mattress, some on the floor peacefully. She smoothly gets out of the bed, moving Stress next to False, and slides out of it quietly, placing her blanket over people was on the floor before heading out to the balcony. Roaming the town halls with barefooted, she finally reaches to the balcony where she can see the sun is slowly rising. The wind is getting cold in the early but Catty doesn't worry as she looks at the sun greets the server a new day.

“Enjoy the view?”

someone threw the coat over her head as she let out a small screech at the unexpected newcomer. The similar white hair, Etho leans in as he looks over the sun as well before continue talking,

“You kinda freak everyone out back there, y’ know?” Catty only let out a small hum as agree with what he spoke.

"Sorry about that, I don't want to ... freak everyone." She let out a small giggle as she looks back at him. " I get used to deal it alone so i..." She babbles out, tries to find a random reason to tell him, she can't just say that she doesn't want to disturb them at all.

"Do you want to hear a funny joke?"

Etho changed the topic which she quietly sighs in relief as Catty slowly nodded

"You may or may not called Xisuma dad while you're unconscious"

"You're joking."

Etho shrugged, she can feel he is smiling and so was she as Catty throw some playful punch at his shoulder. "Is that a smile I see? " which ends up getting another punch at his arms.

" I don't know what happened before you join, but you can always ask for help from anyone, we're family. And family help each other, right?"

Family. How long has someone told her that this is her family now? So long that she can't remember. "We are.. family now?" the question itself contains so much mixed feeling in there as she looks back at him, hoping that what he said was correct.

"The moment you join this server, you already become a part of our family."

She can hear the hermit's voices as one by one is getting up, greeting one and another before finding out Catty already leave the bed. Etho looks down and lets out a small laugh, see everyone is freaking out and try to find the sick patient, Catty looks down as well as she let out a laugh as well. Another day of Hermitcraft server, or should she say, another day of her home now.

King of Prism SSS Episode 9 commentary (Alexander)

FINALLY!!!!! Finally I can talk about a few big things from this series I have been dying to talk about....

...............What did I sign myself up for.

A quick rundown of what it says here: More and more people are becoming interested in the street-style and choosing to be street-style stars since the Prism King Cup. In the graph, the gold portion is academy-style and the silver is street-style, before -> after the Prism King Cup. Below it points out that Kazuki and Hiro’s “sparking” scores from the Prism King Cup (the Prism Watch data) were equal and suggests Schwartz Rose needs to step up their game in the street category.

Every time I laugh at this.

Every time I feel kinda bad afterwards.

But

So Ace was entered as an official participant. It says “reserve”, but still. I guess that may have helped to make Joji’s score possible and not break the system.

(In between writing my episode 5 commentary post and now, I got to read the interview with the director in spoon2Di where he confirmed that Joji’s high score was only because Ace joined in what was supposed to be a solo show.)

Flashy, huh. We’re going with flashy this time for “charachara”.... Okay. (Better than gaudy I guess.)

I love this so much. Kakeru coming outside just to watch Taiga exercise and get all sweaty and all that. I wonder how long he stood there. Or rather I wonder how long he watched with binoculars after heading back inside.

I’m such a dumbass. After episode 3 aired someone pointed out that this is Taiga’s mom vs. Alec’s mom, and my excuse for not noticing then was that it’s in the background and such. (Can’t pause the movie in the theater and didn’t think to check it afterwards.) But here the camera actually pans over them slowly, so yeah I have no excuse.

But regardless. Amazing!!

Another thing I didn’t catch in the theater. But I have never had a reason to know the Japanese word for asthma before. I’m glad that gave him an actual reason for being sickly instead of just.... sickly child syndrome.

As long as you’re happy, Victoria.

But really though, their relationship is pretty damn interesting.

I wonder if she knows he borrowed her clothes.

No I don’t know why these grown-ass men have nothing better to do than pick on an actual seven year old child...............

So uh. This line confused me for the longest time. The way he says it, I really thought he was giving “Daikokuno” as another last name and I thought it was some kind of DJ KOO reference I didn’t get or something.

But thanks to Crunchyroll I finally realized.... ITS A PLACE. He’s just saying where he’s from, and that’s how Alexander is able to find him. GOOD LORD IM SUCH A DUMBASS.......... Another point for Crunchyroll.

HE BIKED ALL THE WAY FROM YOKOSUKA TO YOKOHAMA

Okay so now that I have the luxury to pause this, as soon as I did I opened up Google Maps in another window, zoomed in and....

WELL THEN

At least I finally know where it is

BUT DAAAAAMN

Fuck asthma am I right

It wouldn’t give me the cycling time, but yeah, you can imagine.

They only have this one image of Rei doing a jump and gosh darn they are gonna use it to the fullest.

So during this scene and the next people cheer for Rei in the theater, but nobody really knows what color he is. There was a whole lot of variation at the beginning before people (in Nagoya at least) finally settled on red. (For the flames maybe? I don’t know if it’s official.....)

Alexander actually had a flashback to this moment on Prism Rush during the Road to SSS 9 event. I reblogged it recently on my @prism-rush blog trying to disguise it as part of my Alexander birthday spam. (It wasn’t.)

YEAHHHHHHHHHHH BOY

So if you have no idea where the heck this egg came from and what it is..... Rainbow Live.

But anyway.

I can finally FINALLY talk about this!!! Even though I knew it would probably be all over Twitter, I really wanted to protect this spoiler on Tumblr if I could. It was such a big deal to me when I saw it in the theater and I really wanted you guys to have the opportunity to be as blown away as I was. I could not possibly think of anything to say about it that wouldn’t be a hint, so all I could say all this time was just that Alexander’s episode has “a surprise” in it.... SURPRISE!!!

But yeah, when I saw this for the first time I thought it just came out of NOWHERE. Total shock! I thought this was not predictable at all!

But then it hit me. All of a sudden I remembered something. Something important.

Again, in Road to SSS event 9....

So, for folks who follow my @prism-rush blog, remember that one Alexander PR where he was looking into a box? And nobody knew what was in the box? But there was something weird following him? I even mentioned it and my confusion over it in my summary of that event. WELL GUESS WHAT.

We finally know what was in the box don’t we.

I asked a friend to see the card story to fill in the blanks and see if there were any obvious hints to what was going on at the time, and it’s just mentioned as a strange animal he picked up. Alexander struggles with what to do and not really wanting to take care of it, but then he asks himself what Rei would do..... (Whether he could see Momo at that time, I do not know ahah....)

So in the beginning after seeing Part 1 in theaters I said on Tumblr that the Road to SSS events from Prism Rush didn’t have much to do with the SSS anime, and most of them didn’t and still don’t. All of course except for Road to SSS 9, just that one, which ended up being way more important than I would have ever imagined. And this isn’t even the only reason either, there is also--

SO UH anyway Road to SSS 9 took place in June, so this flashback is taking place in June DURING Road to SSS 9. A very roundabout way to dating the episode, but really cool. I like how Road to SSS was significant after all.

And another surprise for me. In the theatrical version he’s not glowing here. They wanted to emphasize that he’s powering up I suppose eheh. I was really freaking out about this in the stream chat. SO COOL.

To the right of his little dragon house you’ll see some “dorayaki” because.....

Although they never actually mention it in the anime, his name is Dorachi. (Confirmed on Twitter.)

(Note: Dorayaki is also the favorite food of classic Japanese character Doraemon.)

Even though Dorachi doesn’t talk in this episode, in the theatrical special video for Alexander he talks A LOT. An UNFAIR amount. So much I do not remember most of what he said since I only saw it once and it went by so fast.

But his real name is very long (like the manager names from PriPara) and he talks about spreading the prism sparkle. I’m sorry, that’s honestly all I remember right now.

Will he show up again in the main anime before the end?

(Okay yes.)

And at least they gave you guys was a bit of original(??) art of him in the new ending.

WHATEVER THEY MAKE OF THIS CHARACTER I WILL BUY IT

Okay moving on.......

Urrgh..... okay so.............. When I first was watching this with you guys in the stream I was like UGH because I don’t think “flashy” fits here at all. I really wished they had stuck with “playboy” since it would work better with this scene.

But then when I watched it again, I realized they already used “flashy” once in this episode to describe Kazuki’s sweater, and it did kinda work there.

If we go back to my episode 3 commentary, my main complaint with Crunchyroll’s translation of “charachara” was actually less about the words they used, and more about how it just wasn’t consistent.

This episode..... is consistent.

..................

................................

Another point for Crunchyroll.

I officially cannot complain about the subs in this episode.

Another little thing in SSS I have spent way too much time thinking over is how Joji got here.

In every episode up until now, it’s always been Louis seen walking beside Jin like his pet. But in this episode. JUST THIS EPISODE.... it’s Joji instead.

I think the reason is because Louis is performing next, so he has to rest (since he’s not exactly in the condition he once was.....) So Joji scooped up the opportunity.

Whatever the reason, I find it really interesting.

HERE IT IS

My all time favorite Alexander face

In a weird way I actually think he’s cuter here than in the Prism King Cup

This song.... was not quite what I was expecting for Alec, but I love it. No part of me anticipated he’d just launch into a ballad but WOW. I just love how they picked something that really shows off his beautiful voice like this. Alexander is in my top three singing voices in King of Prism (1: Hiro, 2: Taiga, 3: Alexander) so I loved hearing him belting this out.

Now time for my like.... 4th(?) embarrassing confession in this post.... I had no idea this song was a cover until like AN HOUR before this episode aired. You guys were playing TRF songs in the stream, the original came on, and while y’all were like “what should we watch next” I was sitting there like “!!!!!!!!FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF”

Well, it’s a new song to me. And I think it’s perfect for him.

Poor Joji and his inconveniently timed fruit.

He finally gets to spend time with Jin, and he just can’t get a break.

I love the generation gap here. Kazuki’s existence has been so big to Taiga he can only think of Kazuki. But Kazuki and Hijiri are able notice the subtle differences that make this an OG Rei move.

I could certainly spend a whole lot of text speculating why Alexander did not change into his battle suit, but I won’t waste your time and just admit I have no idea. I’m glad he doesn’t, since it keeps the spotlight on Alexander since HE CAN’T PERFORM ONE GODDAMN SHOW WITHOUT TAIGA BARGING IN ON HIM BUT MMMRGGHGHG

TAIGA YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER

Yeah I was SO MAD about this when I first saw it at the midnight showing.

A lot of people change to green when Taiga comes out, but I do not. This is the only battle where I cheer for Alexander the whole time.

Not only was I mad at Taiga for being so dumb, but just mad at the whole concept of Taiga barging into Alexander’s one show to do basically the same jumps we saw in Pride the Hero again.....

But.....

Nowadays I forgive my idiot son. And I hope you do too.

This wasn’t the moment I forgave him. No, that’s coming later. I was mad at him for an entire month. But yeah.

He’s just so confident and everyone believes in him................................

So Alexander breaks the street-style curse and gets a damn good score. Higher than Taiga’s original score.

But just like Joji’s score was due to Ace, I can’t help but think Alexander’s score was a good deal due to Taiga.........

I had a feeling this would happen.

I knew long before Part 3.

Even back when I had only just seen Part 1.... I just knew the tables would turn in this episode.

Maybe it would be difficult to guess by watching week-to-week, but for me having Alexander’s episode as the last episode of the theatrical Part 3 just seemed like it would be WAAAAAY too much of a coincidence otherwise. So I had a strong feeling Schwarz would come out ahead at the end of this one. (I didn’t guess the reason would be because Taiga would get a penalty, but yeah.) And especially because the performances are kind of out of order to make this work? Up until now I thought all of the Schwarz Rose boys performed first, but Yu was up before Alec? And Louis is up next. Maybe it wasn’t a guaranteed thing that the Schwarz Boys always go first, but I noticed it.

So up until now score has not mattered much as Edel Rose has just sailed on though. But now it does. It matters a lot.

So this is the second surprise of this episode, and why I was saying it’s the beginning of the chain of events that lead to the end.

But about score mattering now, one of the reasons I have been questioning Taiga’s score the whole time is because I knew this was going to happen. So I just.... I just hope Taiga’s score wasn’t lower to begin with on purpose for mathematical reasons so they could get their desired progression of the overall score or something. IDK.

I don’t blame Rei for not figuring it out right away. Even though I KNOW this is Alexander, I still have trouble connecting his younger and older selves. I mean, getting muscular doesn’t make your eye shape completely change does it....?

Poor Kazuki. He doesn’t care.

So if I interpreted this episode correctly....

This was Alexander’s official transition from an antagonist to a protagonist. (Or just to a normal rival at least.)

During the first two movies and for a good long time of Prism Rush, he always played the part of the villain. But once Road to SSS started that began to change. We saw him reminiscing about Rei, making awkward conversation with Louis, struggling over forming a duo with Joji, etc. So I had a strong feeling they were taking his character in this direction, but this right here was the official turning point I believe.

No more destroying stadiums. From now on he’ll be spreading the prism sparkle with Dorachi.

And still trying to beat Kazuki but you know.

So I don’t have a source handy (if someone challenges me to find one I’ll dig it up) but I remember I read one time that Alexander was actually originally a character that was only created for the first movie. But then they realized they had to keep him on when he was just so popular.

So if you have ever supported Alexander, this episode was for you. Fans make King of Prism possible.

So.... one more thing I guess. Something I learned from the Minato episode was that even if I ignore controversy and specifically state I don’t want to talk about it, it still finds its way into my inbox anyhow. So I might as well get this over with I guess.

After Young of Prism Alexander was revealed to have light skin, someone told me a theory that mixed race children are sometimes born with lighter skin which darkens as they grow older. So up until her design was revealed, I had always imagined Alexander’s mother as a black woman.

So yeah. I don’t know the reason for his darker skin color now.

But I’d like to point out that in this episode being pale was associated with being weak and unhealthy, while darker skin was associated with being healthy and strong and just leave it at that.

And thus ends Part 3.

Next week begins.................. what I have been dreading for a long time............

So...................

So up until now I have been pretty tight-lipped about spoilers. But once episode 10 airs, the floodgates will pretty much be open. Episode 10 and episode 11 are so connected it’s really hard to talk about one without the other. I mean, once you know about episode 10, I seriously might as well. So after episode 10 airs, at the bottom of my commentary post and after a warning I plan to share some episode 11 spoilers.

Because I have been through this......

And I know how it’s gonna make you guys feel......

And since I was lucky enough to get some answers right away, I’m going to give you guys those same answers for those who want them so you don’t have to just sit on episode 10 for a week. I am not that kind of a monster. I won’t put you guys through that.

So after episode 10 ends, take a deep breath, cry it out if you need to, and get some tea.

I know how you’re gonna be feeling. I know. Don’t send me a panicked anon ask right away. Give me a little time. Hold on.

To Save Her Soul (Kiva/Fourze drabble)

With a rattle of chains, Kiva drops down from the ceiling of the warehouse, spinning in the air to land on his feet next to Fourze.

“Glad you could come, Gentaro.” Kiva says, handing him a folder.

“You sounded urgent on the phone, Wataru.” Gentaro tells the other rider as he thumbs through the papers.

“It is urgent.” the other rider taps the picture in the folder. “Her name is Amaya Nakidori. She’s 14 years and she just discovered that she’s a Fangire, in the worst way possible.” Kiva looks away from Fourze for a moment.

“Oh no...you mean...”

Kiva nods. “She had gotten into an argument with her boyfriend, and her power manifested. Fortunately, my brother was nearby and managed to pull them apart before he could be completely consumed. But Amaya ran away. We’ve found out from her family where she likes to spend her time. We need you to find her and help bring her back.”

“What about the others?” Gentaro is already on board, but he needs more information.

“She has already seen Taiga in his Dark Kiva armor and it terrified her. We want to help her so she won’t harm another human or herself. Her parents want her to come home, because they’ll love her no matter what. There’s only one man in this country I would trust with a mission to rescue a teenager, and that’s you.”

Gentaro cancels his armor, revealing his suit and pompadour underneath. “I won’t let you down, Wataru. I’ll bring Amaya back.”

“I know you will, Gentaro.” The Kiva armor falls away and Kivat-bat III drifts up in front of Gentaro.

“We’re all counting on you, Gentaro.” The bat holds out its wing and Gentaro performs a modified version of his club handshake with it, then does the same with Wataru.

---

As Wataru leaves the warehouse, Gentaro looks over the list of places Amaya might have gone. He immediately crosses off the arcade and the sushi restaurant. A young woman in that state of mind isn’t going to want to be around a lot of other people. Tokyo Tower is out for the same reason. There’s one more place, and it’s a bit of hike to get to, but it makes the most sense. Gentaro gets on his motorcycle and starts riding for the large hill at Kibougahana.

His instinct was right. Amaya sits by the edge of the hill, looking out over the landscape below.

He very carefully moves past her blind spot, sitting on the bench a few feet away from hers.

“It’s quite a view, isn’t it?” He says, looking straight ahead. “From up here, you can see the sky clearly.”

Amaya starts, looking over at the source of the voice, and for the first time since she went on the run, she has to laugh. A man with banchou hair, a three piece suit and Chuck Taylors is certainly not what she expected. And after the laugh, she admits. “Yeah, I love it here. When the sun sets, and the stars come out...it’s like a watching a play.”

“A play, huh? That’s pretty accurate. Every star in the sky follows its own orbit, like stage directions given billions of years ago. And with most of those stars, they took their last bow eons ago.” Gentaro says.

“Wait, I didn’t know that.” Amaya looks over in curiosity. That sort of thing had never been brought up in her homeschooling.

“Yeah. Since light travels at a constant rate, the light you’re seeing from those stars left a long time ago.” He points up as the stars start shining. “See that one? Even if you were traveling at the speed of light, you’d have to be traveling for almost a hundred years to get to where it is.”

“Well...what’s the point of going there if the stars stopped shining?” Amaya asks, running her finger over the stained glass veins on her wrist.

“The point is to follow the light of the past and find a light to guide you to the future. It might be a difficult journey, but it’s always worth taking.” He reaches into his bag and takes out a wool blanket. “It does get very cold on this hill in November. Here you go.” He offers her the blanket, staying far enough back that their hands don’t touch. When she’s ready to be touched, she’ll let him know.

“Thanks.” Amaya wraps the blanket around her shoulders. “I guess you’re the one my parents sent to find me. So you probably know what happened.”

“I am and I do. But what happened doesn’t matter. Your boyfriend is recovering, and your parents want you to come home, Amaya. They’re worried about you.”

“But I’m a freak. I’m a monster.” As she says this, the stained glass spreads across her body, and she assumes her full Fangire form.

“You’re neither of those things, Amaya. What you are is a Fangire. You’re a beautiful living being made of a durable stained glass crystal and you’ll live a very long time and do many great things with that time.”

Amaya hears his words and slowly returns to her human form. “How can you be so sure that I’ll be great? What if I lose control and attack someone again?”

“That’s another reason I was sent to find you. The other Fangires have been working on ways to curb their aggression, to keep from feeding on people. But you have to be willing to work with them.”

“That guy in the black bat armor. He’s a Fangire too?” Amaya wraps the blanket around her shoulders as a gust of wind picks up.

“Yes. He’s heading up the efforts to make Fangires and humans work together. And he’s looking forward to meeting you.”

“But...” Amaya starts crying and Gentaro offers her a handkerchief. “What if someone comes after me? What if I do something wrong, and a Kamen Rider comes to hunt me down?”

“If they do, then they’ll answer to me.” Gentaro holds up the Fourze Driver. “I won’t let anything bad happen to you, Amaya. And neither will the Kivas.”

He stands up, offering his hand. “Come on. I’ve got an extra helmet on my motorcycle. I can get you back home before ten PM. Are you willing to go with me?”

Amaya pauses for a moment, looking up at the sky. “You said the stars move as if they’re in a play. Do the lives of humans and Fangires move the same way?”

“They do. But the good thing about being alive is that you’re not just the lead actor in your play, you’re also the stage director. You, and only you, get to decide how your play goes. You’re still young, so your play has just begun.

Amaya smiles. She always liked the theater, and Gentaro’s analogies put her at ease. She walks closer to the edge of the retaining wall, takes a deep breath and with a flourish, takes a bow. “Thank you all for coming so far to see my play. I hope you will all be entertained!”

That said, she walks back to Gentaro, and takes his offered hand. “I’m ready to go home now.”

“Good. Follow me.”

Hours later, Gentaro returns Amaya to her parents and goes to meet with Wataru. The other Rider isn’t hard to find. Gentaro just has to follow the sound of the violin.

“I heard from Taiga. You did a good job out there, Gentaro.” Wataru sets down his bow. “I knew we could count on you.”

“Happy to help, Wataru.”

---

Two weeks later, Gentaro stands before his class.

“Everyone, we have a new student today.”

A girl with glass beads in her brown hair enters the room in her brand new Amanogawa High School uniform and writes her name on the board.

“Hello everyone. I’m Amaya Nakidori. Let’s get along.”

Gentaro points to an open seat near a green-haired girl. “Welcome aboard, Amaya. Go get to know some of your classmates.”

Amaya introduces herself to the green-haired girl and her cohorts.

“So, Amaya, what kind of clubs are you going to join?” Ookami Hana asks her.

Amaya looks up at her new teacher with a smile. “I’m thinking...astronomy and drama.”

The Great Ex-Aid Rewatch: Ex-Aid & Ghost, Part Two

Okay, back to it for part two of who-know-how-many of my Dr. Pac-Man liveblog!

Time for more gamers, doctors, ghosts, and terrible examples of science that people should in no way, shape, or form try to emulate!

––– –––

When last we saw our doctor heroes, they were escaping from Dr. Pac-Man with the victim-of-the-week, and the Ghost team was coming to their aid, leaving Shinnosuke back at the precinct.

We pick back up with Emu, Asuna, and Tougo running, but being blocked from one direction by Doral and Giril, and a still very glitchy Dr. Pac-Man on the other.

Turns out, the Pac-viruses aren’t technically bugsters at all – they’re just… er. Viruses, I guess, that Dr. Pac-Man used to set up a virus detection program. Specifically, to track the Bugster Virus, so that he could hunt down Tougo, who’s a carrier of a new strain.

Wait, so, the fevers that are hitting the people throughout the city aren’t the game disease, then? Or are there more forms to it than the bugster virus? …I may have to go into this in my fics at some point, but not now.

But anyway, it’s a new strain, one that comes from Hatesate Puzzle, so naturally the GenmCorp systems wouldn’t have any information on it – it’s not one of their products, so there’s no reason to expect it to spawn a bugster of it’s own.

Takeru, Akari, and Onari show up, with Takeru accusing Dr. Pac-Man of being Zaizen Michihiko. Fortunately for all of us, he is, and admits such as soon as Takeru brings it up. This means I no longer have to type ‘Dr. Pac-Man’ nearly as often, and we don’t have to deal with his squeaky voice changer anymore.

That thing was obnoxious.

Zaizen, who should have died six years ago, has managed – somehow – to revive as a Bugster. Which, as we know now, is foreshadowing for what happens down the line in-show. (Actually, this might be where Kuroto got that particular plan from in the first place.) He’s come back to finish his plans from back then.

He and his ‘team’ were working on a ‘genome project’, to create a new life form via operating on a patient infected with the game disease. A project to create a bugster.

But things went wrong.

Something happened, and we see the ‘patient’ – his face tactfully hidden by scenery the entire time – bucking on the table, the four ‘doctors’ drawing back in surprise. As a swarm of orange lights emerges from him and form into the shape of a person, lines of light form a game area around the room, while the four ‘doctors’ are dissolved into fragments of data.

And now? Now they’re back from being banished to the shadow realm game world, and ready to fulfill their ‘master plan.’

Emu – sweet, blissfully unaware, ten-episodes-in Emu – says that he may not know anything about this so-called master plan, but to use Pac-Man for this, to endanger all of these people… how can they call themselves doctors?! Doctors are supposed to help people!

Zaizen declares that anyone who stands against him must die, and Hatena – the latest Bugster – summons a massive number of enormous falling blocks. That would be bad enough, since said blocks are approximately person sized, and could easily crush someone.

Except that Hatesate Puzzle is a match three puzzle game. When three blocks of the same color line up? They explode.

Makoto and Alain show up from… somewhere, just in time to see Takeru make a dive to cover Akari with his body to protect her from another wave of blocks.

They are both caught up in the explosions. When the smoke clears, Takeru manages to wake Akari up, barely.

They both start to turn transparent, bursts of static crackling across them, at which point Akari passes back out.

Takeru, having had some very traumatic experiences with being transparent, makes the very natural assumption that they’ve both just died.

Fortunately, Emu is there, and able to yell that no, no, you’re not dead, that’s the bugster virus, please calm down!

Well, they’re not dead yet, according to Hatena, who says that unless someone manages to defeat him in the next 24 hours, they’re done for. This, naturally, pisses Makoto and Alain the hell off, and they go on the offensive.

I love civilian outfit fights, because you can get more of a sense of how the characters really move. I hold to the theory that putting on Rider armor, in any series, enhances the wearers usual abilities, so while you can see how they fight, you can get a far more accurate idea of it when they fight out of suit.

Against Giril, for all that the first part of the fight is more of a dance between her, Makoto, and Alain, you can tell that they’re skilled at this – that they’ve been through battles. They do eventually wind up getting hit – her fighting style is very different from the ones they’re used to facing, and Alain in particular takes some nasty palm strikes and kicks to the chest, but they’re still putting up a good show. (Especially for a pair who lost the majority of their effectiveness in battle once they joined up with Takeru, but that’s a complaint for a whole different season.)

On the other hand, Emu’s fight against Doral can barely be called a fight. He’s getting beaten, badly. Doral barely has to move to dodge Emu’s punches, and when they do connect, he doesn’t even flinch, moving with the punch to soften what little damage there would be.

Emu takes numerous blows to the torso, and I’m pretty sure at one point he just barely avoided a groin shot. He does manage a sweet flip and a roll, but it looks to have been accidental, given he then very quickly gets thrown several meters through the air.

Compare this to his first fight in-show, when he’d just gotten the belt, and had no idea what he was even getting into. In level one, he didn’t take a single hit from the Bugster Union, and when he fought Salty directly, he got hit maybe two or three times, but no more than that, and they didn’t effect him at all.

Early Emu has no idea what he’s doing in a fight, without actively being Ex-Aid.

Onari and Asuna carry Akari off to the hospital, escaping, while Makoto and Alain manage to literally hold Giril back, telling Takeru to ‘take care’ of Hatena.

Takeru’s punches do nothing, aside from make his knuckles hurt, and make Hatena chuckle. CHUCKLE. Not even LAUGH, just a quiet chuckle.

Emu gets grabbed, and Doral is trying to choke him out, when freaking Tougo – who is, admittedly, in a bit of a bad way, seeing how he’s rather see-through at the moment – yells at Emu. He’s a doctor, right?! Then why isn’t he saving him?!

You know, never mind that you said it was pointless earlier, or that Emu’s getting his ass kicked and currently is having a bit of trouble breathing, just go ahead and guilt trip him. That’s totally a way to make people like you.

Oh, and then Zaizen tells this asshole that nobody can save him, and pulls Tougo into a bugvisor. Because that totally makes sense.

All four riders present – Emu, Takeru, Alain, and Makoto – get hurled down by their respective opponents, Emu internally apologizing to Tougo. Doral advances on Emu…

And is met with a spin-kick to the face.

Kiriya, Hiiro, and Taiga have arrived. Here’s their basic reactions to the scene:

Kiriya: More research data! Yes! (Also, time to save the Ace, because he’s the only person in this show who has even remotely tried to be a decent person, and was the only one who bothered trying to trust me.)

Taiga: Okay, shows over, freaks. (Why do people keep using Protogashats?! Are they all just stupid?!)

Hiiro: You look pathetic, intern. Also, here’s the new Legend Rider Gashat, the CEO wanted you to have it, for some reason.

Doral’s all ‘oh, so you want to fight, do you?’, and he and Giril pull out their gashats. Kiriya gives a sarcastic whistle, before Makoto and Alain shove their way in front, saying that this is their fight. I mean, it’s not, technically, but I get their reasoning. Also, Makoto literally shoved Hiiro to the side, and Hiiro takes a moment to come back to facing front, looking incredibly offended. Kiriya tries to point out to them that they’re already pretty beat up, and maybe they should take a back seat for a bit, but let if never be said that Makoto and Alain are anything but stubborn.

Giril takes off one way, Makoto and Hiiro in pursuit, while Doral goes the other, with Alain, Taiga, and Kiriya chasing after. Emu is still on the floor, slightly dazed, and presumably very confused.

–––

Hiiro and Makoto Vs Giril.

Makoto’s fighting style here is very… I dunno, like he’s a brawler? I guess? It’s not really refined, there’s a sort of brutality there. He uses the mooks momentum a lot, at one point pulling one of those ‘roll with the grab and use it to do a spin kick while on the mooks back’ tricks.

Hiiro, meanwhile, is quick and efficient, focusing on disabling mooks by going for the torso. Once again, he’s weaponizing CPR, just like when he originally used Doremifa Beat. At one point, he actually just flat out does a chop to the back of one mooks neck, which I find hilarious coming from Hiiro, of all people.

Eventually, Giril transforms, and Makoto hastily follows suit. Heh, suit. Because they’re transforming heroes. Hiiro, who saw full well that Specter isn’t exactly in prime condition, tries to tell him to wait, and heads into level two to join the fight.

–––

Taiga, Kiriya, and Alain vs Doral.

Taiga and Alain’s fight styles aren’t too different, outside of suit. They both favor quick blows that are still slightly showy. The main difference is that Alain’s more willing to rely on both his arms and legs for attacks, while Taiga’s more likely to dodge attacks. Kiriya… may as well be street dancing. Like, there’s a lot of streetdance type moves going on there.

…Dark Toei, give me the forbidden streetdancer Kiriya lore.

Eventually, Alain starts getting into a slightly more berserker style, Kiriya is getting somehow even flashier, and Taiga…

Taiga stole the sword off of one of the mooks.

…SWEET.

Doral transforms, and Alain angrily follows… and immediately starts doing worse. Seriously, the Necrom suit is a definite hindrance for Alain. He was great when he was in civilian attire – because he could move. Loose fitting clothes are far better suited for his personal style than the tight, controlled movements he has to use as Necrom. I mean, he really shouldn’t keep the scarf on in battle, but it doesn’t seem to slow him down, so I guess it’s okay.

Taiga looks a little disappointed that Alain just rushed in there like that, and once again it’s Kiriya who says that he’s getting ahead of himself.

The two of them transform, and Taiga visibly enters level two, doing a sweet flip over a fire projectile before getting into the battle. Kiriya says he’s leveling up, but we don’t actually see it, or him.

–––

Takeru vs Hatena.

This fight is not going nearly so well as the others. Takeru is getting shoved around like a ragdoll by Hatena and his staff, but still struggling back up, despite the copious pain he’s in, because he’s going to save Akari, dangit!

Emu’s still down on the floor, just barely getting around to picking himself back up in order to stop Takeru from advancing.

Zaizen says that all these struggles are useless. Without Ghost’s power, they can’t possibly beat Pac-Man, and he’s going to make them fear just how powerless they are!

He then proceeds to fire his bugvisor into the air, a massive swarm of Pac-viruses emerging from it… and then they all form into a GIANT PAC-MAN. The version with arms and legs, no less, before it pulls those into itself and becomes the more classic Orb Pac-Man.

Then it sort of… shudders, and glows a bit red, and oh look, everyone, Pac-Man’s got a mouth of fangs now!

Wisely, Takeru and Emu realize that being faced with a two-or-three story Pac-Man, who is clearly intent on eating them, is the point where they should be running away.

–––

Pac-Man chases them outside. They manage to avoid his barreling into them, but also he takes a bite out of a building, so there’s that. They’ve both fallen from their dodge.

Takeru pushes himself back to his feet, struggling to walk forward to fight.

Emu tries to hold him back, because it’s too dangerous, he’s too hurt, if he tries to fight like this, he could die-

Takeru shoves him off, saying it doesn’t matter if he can still transform or not. Yes, he doesn’t want to die, but if he can save Akari, then that is far more important. He’s going to do this. He has to do this!

Ghost’s powers are intimately linked to Takeru’s emotional state. They always have been, as far back as his first episode. His resolve summons the Ore Eyecon back to him from Dan Kuroto’s desk (because of course he didn’t give that to Hiiro to bring back), and the Ghost Driver reappears around Takeru’s waist.

(The, uh, the handle on that thing’s looking a little worse for wear. You guys couldn’t have, I dunno, wiped it down or something? Given it a little touch up?)

“HENSHIN!”

:cue fangirl grin:

Takeru gets to fly again! In base form, no less! …You know, outside of the first episode, and his guest previews in Drive, I don’t think Takeru actually got to use his levitation in his base mode more than maybe once or twice until after his season. I’m pretty sure he didn’t even get to do it in his own movies, outside of the finishing blow to the giant Ganma from the Ghost & Drive film. I don’t recall him levitating at all during Ichighost. If he used that power outside of the final battle in 100 Eyecons, I don’t remember it, and I know that time it was in Infinite.

Basically, I’m in the ‘Let Takeru Use His Powers’ camp. Also, I’m thinking that this might be where he basically… re-unlocked that for his base form? I dunno, just a thought that I might use in ReUnited, might not. Hard to say.

Anyway, Ghost! He’s flying around, kicking Angry Emoji Pac-Man while dodging storms of Pac-Viruses. Emu, in the meantime, is having a slight crisis of personal faith. He’s been getting his ass handed to him all day, even more so than usual, with people berating him left and right for not being good enough at his job – as a doctor or as a Kamen Rider.

Screaming to the sky, he somehow finds his resolve. Pulling out the Kaigan Ghost gashat, a breeze blows his hair back, and he transforms.

…Okay, yes, it’s a level ONE form right now, but he still gets to fight in-air with Takeru, both of them with that cool orange glow effect, so it’s worth it!

–––

At the Next Genome Hideout, Zaizen and Hatena arrive just in time for… Uh. What was his name again? Ah, there we go. Kuruse Soji, also known as the Robol Bugster. For consistencies sake with the rest of his group, I will be referring to him as Robol from here on.

So, those two arrive just in time for Robol to finish the… I don’t even know what it is, some sort of genome re-mapping design.

Hatena is the one to ask Zaizen “Hey, are you sure about this whole ‘using yourself as a lab rat’ thing? You’re putting your life on the line, here.”

But nope, Zaizen’s determined to carry out his plan, and he’s fully intent on becoming a life form ‘to surpass creation.’

Hatena’s response is basically a silent “Well, okay then, it’s your funeral,” before raising his reality-warping staff up, and starting what is basically a reprogramming process on Zaizen.

Additionally, Zaizen seems to very quickly have at least a few regrets with regards to his haste, or at least didn’t think Hatena was going to just go ahead and start immediately. Having ones genetic structure re-written is not exactly painless.

The thing is… I don’t know what Zaizen doing this to himself would prove for any sort of proof of concept. We find out later on that his plan is to do this all over, and yeah, most people won’t survive, but the ones who do will be stronger for it. Which is all standard mad scientist stuff. However, he’s already a Bugster. He’s said as much, so his base makeup isn’t the same anymore. He has no way to prove this will actually work on a normal human! I mean, yeah, he’s trying it on Tougo simultaneously, albeit a little differently, but Tougo’s infected with the bugster virus already, so there’s good odds that the alterations are working with that more than anything else.

Basically, Zaizen, you’re a terrible excuse for a doctor and a scientist, and you should be ashamed of yourself for so many different reasons.

–––

Back at the Giril fight, Makoto uses all three of his regular Legend Eyecons to try and take her down, and even at one point using Houdini’s chains as whips! It gets to a point where we have Specter with Nobunaga preparing a finisher, and Giril sending energy slashes at him, only for Brave to use the ice mode of his sword to freeze the attacks in place so that Makoto can shoot through them.

Seriously, Hiiro, why can’t you use tactics this cleverly more often in show? It’d have gone a long way toward making me like at least watching you fight, even though it wouldn’t do anything for you as a character. The only times I can think of that were anything like this were the few occasions you used the sword to make an ice path to hold enemies still, your first time using Doremifa beat, and the way you got Taddle Fantasy by basically emulating some of Emu’s tactics, in using the energy items to your advantage.

But I digress. The two Riders switch into Deep Specter and Doremifa Beat to try and finish the fight.

–––

Brief cut to the Doral fight, where everyone is still in base forms, until Necrom gets knocked down and swaps into Grimm. I am reminded of why I would vastly prefer him to be using an eyecon at all times, because the helmet for Necrom is AWFUL without a cover.

Lazer and Snipe are still in level one and two respectively.

–––

Back to Giril.

Everyone launches finishers, starting with Specter, who doesn’t have much effect, but knocks her back a bit. Brave and Giril launch simultaneous ones, which create a huge chain reaction explosion that results in all three participants getting kicked out of their transformations.

Giril is still okay enough to run away.

Hiiro and Makoto are struggling on the ground. Makoto tries to get up to give chase, but collapses. Hiiro, in not much better state, tries to wake him.

–––

Back to Doral.

Necrom is using Sanzo for a bit, before getting dropped back down to normal. Okay, so, I may hate the transitional phase of Necrom, but it’s not fair to Alain for him to go the whole series without an upgrade. It’s even less fair for him to finally get one after the show… in the Specter V-Cinema. At which point he gets his ass kicked. By Specter. To make matters even more devastating? The single upgrade Alain gets is called Yujou Burst. FRIENDSHIP BURST. It’s ugly as all get out, and he only uses it in a single scene, in which, as mentioned earlier, he gets his ass kicked by Makoto. And you can’t even really see it in that scene, because it was so dark, which was not helped by Yujou Burst being black and gold.

ALAIN DESERVED BETTER, IS ALL I’M SAYING.

Okay, okay, lost potential complaints aside, the fight scene. Lazer and Snipe both enter level three, and I’m fairly certain Kiriya curses the day he blackmailed his way into getting a Driver, because he still has to go through the bike form anyway to get to higher levels.

Necrom and Lazer launch their finishers – Necrom with an energy punch projectile, and Lazer with that gloriously massive rain of arrows. This is followed by Snipe’s finisher, which involves a jetpack and LOTS OF BULLETS.

Man, if Jet Combat weren’t so hideous, I’d probably love it.

Doral gets knocked out of his transformation, and runs off. Necrom and Lazer drop theirs willingly, at which point Alain apologizes to Takeru, and drops to the ground, out cold.

Taiga lands. Specifically, TAIGA lands, dropping his transformation MID DESCENT and landing in a three point touchdown. He sneers, saying that Alain’s an idiot who over did it.

Well, at least the three of you came out of your transformations on your own, unlike the actual secondaries of the two seasons, who both got knocked down.

I mean, I really didn’t expect to find more evidence that Hiiro’s not nearly as good at this Rider thing as he thinks he is, but it sure looks like I did!

–––

Okay, over at the FIRST main fight, with Ex-Aid and Ghost versus a literally two story tall Pac-Man, two lads in black and orange land.

Ghost pulls out the Ex-Aid Eyecon, and we get an incredibly chaotic shot of Takeru entering Ex-Aid Damashi, and Ex-Aid leveling up his Ghost form.

Hnnnn I don’t like either of these legend rider forms. I think it’s in the eyes. Takeru winds up with Ex-Aid’s eyes on his faceplate, which makes sense, because that’s what his Legend Rider forms do. He gets their helmet’s appearance on his. It’s just weird with Ex-Aid’s eyes, is all. I’ll give credit to the jacket for being way better than his one for Drive, though.

The Ex-Aid Legend Rider forms, though… are so incredibly cursed. His chestplate takes on the appearance of whatever’s there on the OG rider, which. Okay, fair. I went to go look at his form for Drive, and the tire just Does Not Translate well to 2d. But the real problem is the helmet.

See, I’m okay with the helmets in Ex-Aid. I don’t care about the anime eye aesthetic, I’m all for it, because they manage to make something this ridiculous look good. Right up until that’s not what’s there anymore.

The helmet takes on an appearance similar to a slimmed down version of the legend rider, which I would be fine with… if it didn’t keep the frames from around Ex-Aid’s eyes. It’s unsettling, and invariably cuts across the eyes of the helmet it’s imitating, which just makes the whole thing uncomfortable.

And, of course, he still has the duplicate faceplate on his back, which makes it really weird when he’s facing away from the camera in the upcoming scenes, because we’re still getting Ghost looking at us. I don’t know why it doesn’t bug me nearly this much with Regular Ex-Aid, but this is really unsettling with a different rider’s helmet.

–––

Okay, okay, sorry, back to the show.

Emu’s gotten Ghost’s ability to levitate, and Takeru’s picked up Ex-Aid’s jumps. So they’re still able to bounce around Pac-Man, but they aren’t both flying anymore.

And then he eats them.

Like, I’m not even kidding, Pac-Man opens his mouth, they get pulled in, and WHOOPS suddenly they’re falling toward a suspiciously familiar maze!

Oh, man, I wish I were better at screencapping, but this goes by too fast for me to catch it. When they land? Takeru has a color-burst effect right out of one of Ex-Aid’s special effects. Nice touch!

Oh, and the walls of the maze, along with the dots, are an appropriate size for a two story tall Pac-Man. So, you know, the lads are a bit dwarfed by the scenery.

If you look carefully, you can see that when Pac-Man’s chasing them through the maze, the dots he passes by aren’t there anymore! He’s still actually playing by his own rules! … right up until they jump out of his way when they’re backed against a wall, and he just plows on through.

(Pac-Man, noooo! You can’t do that! That’s illegal!)

So they just start trying to slash at Pac-Man amid the rubble from the wall he just broke through – and then he starts shooting out beams of light every which way?

I don’t remember that being part of the game…

While they’re jumping and dodging, Emu’s still got Ghost’s glowing effects, and Takeru still has Ex-Aid’s impact stars, so that’s cool. They do that neat cross slash, where one rider goes horizontally around the Giant Kaijin and the other goes vertically… and it’s still not the finisher.

Emu, sweet, game-loving Emu, tells Pac-Man that it’ll just be a little longer. (Emu, he’s currently trying to KILL YOU. You don’t even know if the Regular Pac-Man is IN THERE, for all you know this is just an evil duplicate!)

So, actual finisher time.

Interestingly, the visual flairs when Emu puts the Kaigan Ghost gashat into his finisher slot and pushes the button are all orange. Nice touch. Even nicer is the touches on the emblem that appears behind Takeru when he does his finishers. Usually it’s a glowing orange, or rainbow, in the case of Infinite. But this time it’s pixellated and pink.

(please ignore the awful neon blue lines in the background, those are part of the maze.)

I’d say that “lasers don’t chase people like that” and “jumping doesn’t let you curve in mid-air”, but I don’t think the laws of physics actually apply to these two in most battle circumstances. Also, they’re about to kick Pac-Man in the face because that’s just what we’re doing today, I guess!

They land back out in the real world, where Pac-Man slowly changes back to normal.

(THE BACKS OF THESE SUITS ARE SO CURSED)

Pac-Man dissolves into the air.

Takeru, sweet precious cinnamon roll that he is, is still only thinking of saving Akari.

“I have… to save Akari…”

He falls to the ground, out cold.

–––

Asuna and Onari make it to the hospital, with him carrying the unconicious Akari, to see specks of yellow light streaming down to the infected patients.

Asuna thanks Pac-Man for curing those who were hit by his strain of the Game Disease.

–––

On a nearby rooftop, music from 2012 plays as a man with rings steps into view.

––– –––

Well, that seems like as good a place as any to cut off, narratively speaking! I’m about halfway through the movie at this point, so this should only take one or two more installments to finish.

I have work the next three nights, so I’m not going to be able to pick this back up until Saturday, at the earliest. It sucks, because I really, really wanted to watch this movie again, preferably a lot faster than this whole “three to four hours to get twenty five minutes” deal, but I guess that’s just how I’m watching Ex-Aid, now!

(Disclaimer before anyone gets on my case: Yes, I switched order of those last two segments. Partly it’s to have a better liveblog ending, and partly because that’s the order they should have been in, dang it! It flows way better to have the Pac-Man Fever subplot end before Haruto first shows up, instead of awkwardly inserting him between the last two related scenes.)

The Promised Festival -The Courage to Pull Through-: A Prism Rush event summary

This was a nice event with lots of Taiga character development. It works best as a summary really, so here you go.

Taiga is playing with a cat when he’s suddenly found out by the cat’s owner, an elderly lady. She thanks him for being the cat’s friend because the cat had been sickly up until now. The lady wants to do something for Taiga, and Taiga isn’t too interested at first until she mentions pudding a la mode…

At a local cafe, the two are having a conversation over their desert. The lady happens to mention festivals and of course Taiga’s eyes light up. He asks if there are any festivals around the area, and she tells him there is a festival at a local shrine to give thanks to the shrine god… but this is probably the last year. The reason is that nowadays younger people aren’t interested in that sort of festival anymore and the only participants are very elderly.

Taiga, immediately triggered by the mention of “giving thanks” (flashback to the lesson he learned in the White Day event), decides to take it upon himself to revive the festival so this old lady can experience it again like the old days.

Back at Edel Rose, while eating some watermelon the other boys start an ironic conversation about that very same shrine. Apparently it’s haunted by a ghost cat or something. While the other boys are relentlessly teasing Yu, who is scared of that sort of thing (and already freaked out about a watermelon growing in his stomach since he ate some seeds), suddenly Leo notices Taiga (who hasn’t told them his plan yet) has devolved into a state of quietly mumbling angrily to himself as he wonders if the rumors are what actually caused the festival’s decline…

Taiga goes down to the shrine to try and get a feeling for how much work is needed to revive the festival, unaware that Leo is following him. It turns out to be a lot more than he’d bargained for and Taiga realizes he can’t do it alone. Leo is about to berate Taiga directly about trying to take on too much on his own when suddenly the elderly lady approaches Taiga. Leo eavesdrops on their conversation, in which Taiga tells her not to worry because he has friends he can count on. So, remembering how Taiga did the right thing in the White Day event, Leo decides this time he’s just going to trust in Taiga, make himself available, and wait for Taiga to ask for help on his own. (And thus Leo “coincidentally” runs into Taiga outside the shrine.) This method takes a bit more prodding than Leo planned (since Taiga just stares at him saying “....um...” for what seems like several minutes.), but Leo convinces Taiga that asking for help actually shows courage, and eventually Taiga gets the words out and asks Leo to help him revive the festival.

Back at Edel Rose the two of them discuss their plan. Leo agrees to make new happi (festival wear) based on old photographs of the ones they used to wear. However, they soon realize that there is still too much work for the two of them to handle on their own. They still have to fix the old mikoshi (portable shrine that a bunch of people carry on their shoulders), make festival food, etc. Taiga tells Leo to start work on the happis and leaves. Leo, not able to leave well enough alone, follows Taiga instead.

Taiga goes into the dining room where he meets Minato. Perhaps because he’s still on a high from successfully recruiting Leo, he charges at Minato full force. First he spits out something that sounds like a challenge, which Minato thinks is about dinner. Then he directly asks Minato to make some delicious food, which Minato still thinks is about dinner.

Shin, Yu, and Kakeru hear the commotion and gather at the scene, which flusters Taiga all the more but eventually he is able to calm down enough to tell them all what’s going on. (Much to the joy of Leo as he eavesdrops outside.) Moved by Taiga’s courage and determination to help others, of course they all agree to help. When Taiga is explaining what needs to be done, Kakeru suggests just buying a new mikoshi instead of fixing the old one. But Taiga quickly shoots it down, explaining that the old one contains all of the gratitude for the shrine god from everyone who has ever been to the festival. Kakeru is knocked speechless for a moment as he reflects on how much Taiga has changed since the White Day event (when he didn’t even understand the point of gratitude). So they all agree to fix the mikoshi, and Leo takes that moment to pop out of thin air to suggest they go see it right now. As he just happened to walk in the room and hear them... by coincidence!!

The mikoshi is in pretty bad shape, but Yu is determined he can fix it. So Yu works on the mikoshi, Leo works on the happi, and Minato works on the food. Shin, Kakeru, and Taiga run around doing all sorts of things. Yukinojo can’t help because he’s preparing for a big kabuki show, but they all understand. He’s with them in spirit and he plans to meet them at the festival later. As Yukinojo heads back from delivering refreshments to the others, he glances at a weather report on a TV downtown and notes the festival day will be sunny.

Although there are a few spooky setbacks (I’m not sure if the shrine being haunted or not ever has a conclusion. It wasn’t in the main story nor any of the cards I scouted), the boys finish the festival preparation and everything is beautiful! But the night before, Taiga hears some terrible rumbling in the sky. It’s a thunderstorm! The weather report was wrong. Unable to stand it, Taiga runs screaming out in the rain without an umbrella. Suddenly there is a huge lightning flash. He arrives at the shrine to find the food stand and the mikoshi they worked so hard on have been struck by lightning and are totally ruined. Taiga is devastated.

The others catch up with Taiga, and although the sun has now come out, it feels like the end. The elderly lady shows up, thanks them for all their hard work, and tells them they have done enough. As they reflect on how far they got, Yu notices Kakeru off by himself staring at the sky, and after approaching him they both realize they are thinking the same thing, so they decide to yell it at the same time. They don’t want to give up! Nobody does! Taiga, seeing how much everyone else wanted the festival to succeed as well, becomes inspired. He decides he’s going to pull a Kazuki and try and rebuild everything with a prism show.

But he can’t do it alone. It’s only the combination of everyone’s hearts together, including Yukinojo who Taiga somehow manages to reach long distance and does a prism jump at the same time, that makes it finally succeed.

Everything is rebuilt, the festival is back on, the elderly lady gets the night of her life, and Taiga realizes he has true friends. The boys all enjoy the festival.

The end.

Aomine + Kagami + Murasakibara, cute/fluff scenario of them meeting their s/o who, got caught in the rain! ♥

Ahh fluff always makes me melt

Aomine:

You grumbled as you pressed the call button again. Aomine had never been so good in picking up your calls. This time was the worst because you were soaking wet in the pouring rain. The sky was really bright just minutes ago, so the rain was unexpected. The familiar sound of the voicemail rang through your ears again and you gave up.

“Fine, I’ll just walk home by myself. Stupid Daiki”, you muttered ad stomped your way back home.

But as you took a turn on the first block you bumped into a tall figure, making you fall flat on your behind onto a puddle of rainwater. You groaned and looked up to meet no one other than your boyfriend, Aomine.

“Jeez, [F/N], what the hell are you doing walking in the rain?”, he asked as he helped you up and pulled you under his umbrella.

You glared at him and slapped his chest. “Maybe because my asshole of a boyfriend didn’t care to pick up his phone when I called him a million times to come and pick me up”, you snapped.

Aomine swallowed nervously and rubbed the back of his neck. “Sorry babe.”

You huffed an then thought of an idea. Smirking, you quickly snatched the umbrella that he was holding and threw it far, far away. Soon Aomine started to get soaked and he freaked.

“[F/N] what the fuck was that?!”, he exclaimed trying to cover himself.

“You deserve it, you got me soaked, now it’s you turn”, you said smiling proudly.

Aomine looked at you and smiled mischievously. “Oh yeah? Then take this”, he said and kicked the puddle of water that was in front of him, making it splash over you.

You spluttered in shock and Aomine couldn’t control his laughter. So the two of you had your mini water fight in the rain. You launched yourself at Aomine and he caught you in his arms. He looked down at you with a small smirk, catching you flustered.

“[F/N]?”, he asked.

“Yes?”

“You’re boobs look much bigger when you’re soaking wet under these clothes”, he said.

You flushed and flicked his forehead. “Stop being a pervert!”

He chuckled and planted a kiss on your lips. “You love me for it babe.”

You wrapped your arms around his neck and kissed him back. Slowly the kiss went deeper, the rain showering over the two of you. You pulled away breathlessly and smiled softly.

“Maybe getting stuck in the rain wasn’t as bad as I thought.”

Kagami:

You cursed softly when you heard the loud sound of rain drops hitting the window. Now there was no way you could leave without getting wet.

You sighed, “ I should have listened to Taiga when he told me to bring an umbrella.”

So you waited at your table with nothing to do. You had already had your meal, and you were stuffed, so you couldn’t order anything else to keep you occupied. The Maji Burger’s that you had bought for your boyfriend were starting to get cold too. You huffed and rested your chin on your palm waiting, when suddenly the doors to the shop opened and in walked your boyfriend, Kagami.

He looked at you surprised and walked over to your table, sitting down next to you.

“[F/N]? What are you doing here?”, he asked.

“Oh I was just about to head home but I got caught in the rain”, you sighed. “I bought you food but it got cold.”

Kagami smiled and ruffled your hair, “Oi, thanks for the food. I’ll eat it. If you were stuck you could have called me.”

“My phone died”, you groaned and Kagami laughed.

“Well then you’re lucky I came.” he said.

“I sure am”, you said leaning against his chest while he wrapped an arm around you.

“I told you to bring an umbrella”, he teased.

“Shut up”, you giggled.

He kissed the top of your head and stroked your arm. “So do you want to head home now? We can have a hot drink and chill on the sofa. Maybe even watch the latest basketball game…”, he offered shyly.

You smiled, “Of course.” You kissed his cheek briefly and stood up holding his hand. “C’mon, let’s go”

Kagami smiled and held your hand in one of his, and the other holding the umbrella as the two of you walked home and had a cozy day inside, together.

Murasakibara:

“I’ll take that whole shelf over there, please”, you said to the cashier.

She looked almost confused and amazed when you said that. “Um, you mean everything that’s on the shelf? Are you sure?”, she asked.

You chuckled, you were pretty used to this. Buying snacks for your boyfriend occurred very often, and so did the reactions from the people. “Yes, please.”

“A-Alright”, she said before packing all the stuff for you.

Once everything was set, you were ready to go. But then you heard the booming sound of thunder, followed by the tattering of rain drops. You sighed, how were you supposed to get home now? Moreover with these heavy bags filled with snacks. You were about to call your boyfriend for help but all of a sudden he walked in and surprised you.

“[F/N]-chin? Are you okay? Tatsuya-chin told me about the weather forecast and that it was going to rain so I came to help”, he said taking the bags from you and carrying it with ease.

You smiled and gave him a hug. You loved his hugs, they were comforting, warm, and soft.

“Thank you, Atsushi-kun, I don’t know what I would have done without you”, you sighed.

“Hm, no problem [F/N]-chin. But there are two things that’s missing”, he said.

“And what may they be?”, you asked.

“[F/N]-chin owes me a kiss”, he said bluntly.

You giggled and tip toed as much as you could to plant a kiss on the giant’s lips.

“There. And what’s the other thing?”, you asked.

“I forgot to bring and umbrella”, he said.

You laughed and tugged on his hair playfully while he smiled softly at you.

“God damnit, Atsushi-kun. You know what? It’s fine. We’ll just stay here, eat some snacks and wait for the rain to stop okay?”, you said.

Murasakibara nodded, “Only if [F/N]-chin feeds me”

“It’s a deal”, you replied blushing.
