mornings with them.

contents; fluff, suggestive themes. warming up with some bite-sized headcanons. hope you guys enjoy <3

ft. the monster trio

⋆ ˚｡༄ luffy

if he’s up before you are, that’s only because of the growling sound coming from his stomach. cross-legged on the bed with a lost look in his eyes, “imma get something to eat.” he’s definitely forgotten about the piles of snacks he keeps in his locker and that he makes sure to restock after every meal with your crewmates.

i can see him being a cuddly type. really likes to hug you from behind. in bed, while you're standing up, while you're brushing your teeth. if you happen to be the one to wake up first, fetch him some food from the kitchen and you will earn yourself a good series of hugs from your boyfriend. if not, that's ok, because luffy is a biter too, and he will not hold back from digging his teeth into your shoulder to convince you to go to the kitchen with him. this may or may not lead to the two of you enjoying some other type of meal.

the thing is that luffy, the moment he wakes up, won't stand staying in for too long. especially if you're on land he'll want to explore the surroundings and will try to make you join him on the adventure. knowing how much of a menace he can be objectively speaking you may have no other choice but tag along, but trust me, nothing will make him happier than getting to spend the first hours of the day with his partner in crime <3

“that was so cool,” he's saying to you as your backs are glued to the wall of a random building, chests heaving. out of the corner of your eye, you can see a group of marines searching aimlessly for your missing shadows. luffy takes you by the hand, “we showed ‘em good.”

⋆ ˚｡༄ zoro

you wake up first. but you’re never getting out of bed before he would, and that’s in most cases due to the fact that the arms resting around you are too heavy to lift on your own. you tried slipping away once or twice, but he always managed to keep you there. not like you mind it one bit, nestling yourself at your boyfriend’s chest filling you with a strange sense of warmth you wouldn't let go that easily.

“easy, tiger. what’s the rush?” his voice is sleepy with a guttural undertone to it. “staying in for a minute longer won’t set the ship on fire or anything. proven.” zoro will try to make you two stay in bed with him for as long as possible. you don’t even get a chance to convince him otherwise as he’s quick to fall back into his snooze, and you are usually soon to follow. the second time you open your eyes it’s because of the voices and steps coming from the hallway telling you that you might’ve overslept.

he also likes it when you lazily climb on top of him, resting your cheek on his chest, enjoying each other's presence in silence. in the morning, he may not be the best converser. but there are times his hand may roll down your back, taking a good squeeze of your butt with a smirk plastered on his face, and that's when you know you will definitely be late to your chores.

if you’re on land, he might make it a habit to carry you on his back for a morning jog, the sun unfurling behind your forms as hours roll past. if you’re more the athletic type like he is, he’d gladly have you running by his side. either way, i think starting his daily training with you would work like the perfect energiser for him. although he would never admit it out loud.

⋆ ˚｡༄ؘ sanji

i find sanji to be quite the early bird, having to set up breakfast for the entire crew and doing some first-hour arrangements in the kitchen and all that, so he wakes up before you do. almost every time. he’s already done with more than half of his chores by the time you open your eyes. when it comes to you, however, breakfast in bed is one of the many tell-tale signs of special treatment, and more often than not you get to wake up to the smell of coffee or favourite tea and a well-thought mix of sweet treats.

corny is this man’s second language. if you’re on land, expect to see some tiny bouquets of flowers on the tray, either bought or picked from around the ship, everything looking just so dainty and perfect “like you are, my love.” one of them finds its way behind your ear with a sweet peck on your lips.

and not rarely does he join you with his own cup of tea. leg to leg, your head leaning against his shoulder. a hundred percent the type to smoke in bed. he likes to take a few moments of tenderness with you, gently kissing your shoulder and neck and talking about your plans for the day. sanji will intently listen to you talk about any weird dreams you had, but if you tell him he wasn’t present in any of them he’ll most certainly become a pouting mess.

he gets handsy quickly 💀 and your thighs are perhaps his favourite spot to feel beneath the sheets. the longer you let him he’s one step closer to skipping cleaning up the kitchen after breakfast. but the moment often shatters with some thuds at the door accompanied by luffy’s voice, all broken and teary, begging sanji to unlock the fridge.

***Sorry this started out as a rant***

The idea that you only reciprocate someone's love if you can be open about your feelings or date them is honestly insulting.

I find it especially mature from the Doctor to admit she can't date Yaz, knowing it will break her heart.

In LOTSD, you can clearly see the pain on their faces (both of them), but it's the kindest thing the Doctor could have done. Their relationship would have been unhealthy. We know this because we've seen the Doctor losing herself and being a terrible friend to Yaz.

And the Doctor knows that, she knows her mental state won't allow her to actually be in a relationship. She knows the relationship would be toxic, she knows she's been a terrible friend, she even admitted it in Flux but admitting it didn't fix her.

I've lived longer, seen more, loved more, and lost more.

- It Takes You Away

Yaz, I'm sorry. I didn't let you in to what I was doing... what I was looking for. I shouldn't have shut you out.

- The Vanquishers

But the point is, if it was going to be anyone, it'd be you. But I can't. Because at some point time always runs out.

- Legend of the Sea Devils

Not because I don't want to, because I might. But if I do fix myself to somebody I know, sooner or later, it'll hurt.

- Legend of the Sea Devils

The Doctor is very clear:

- she's not been a good friend,

- she loves Yaz,

- she wishes she could date her.

Being in love, even when it's reciprocal, doesn't always end in a relationship. Sometimes, even "trying" is impossible.

They can't be together, because the Doctor can't bring herself to do that. She's been desperately trying to avoid feelings and attachments since she fell into that Sheffield train. Of course, it doesn't work, and of course it's not a healthy coping mechanism, but this is something people go through.

Yaz understands. And I will argue that Yaz got to confess her love to the Doctor in LOTSD, they both expressed their feelings indirectly.

My nani says, courage is knowing something will hurt and doing it anyway. Mind you, she also said it's the definition of stupidity.

- Legend of the Sea Devils

This is Yaz telling the Doctor "I love you, I wish you could get over your fears, but I understand.

(And there is a lot to say about consent, as, clearly, understanding despite the pain is also the healthier reaction. You cannot force someone into a relationship, Yaz has often been mistreated by the Doctor but in this very moment, she is not a victim.)

There's a reason why she adds that bit about "stupidity" and it's not just to make the Doctor laugh.

Their romance is a slow burn with no happy ending. It's incredibly bittersweet, but it's also very real.

Mentally ill people who avoid relationships are often ashamed of it, we don't openly talk about it because it's definitely not "normal". You can be traumatised, depressed, anxious, but you're still in a happy romantic and sexual relationship, obviously.

Except when you can't.

I started shipping Thasmin during Series 12, initially believing it to be unrequited. I never expected it to be more than subtext, in a way it subverted a lot of my expectations.

I'm no different from most shippers, I was hoping for a kiss (every Doctor had one!) although I expected it to be disappointingly non romantic (à la Nine/Rose).

A kiss, the ultimate romantic trope!

Doctor Who didn't give me what I was hoping for.

It gave me something that I desperately needed.

Home.

Representation.

When you are one of those fucked up queer people, afraid of people knowing deep down you can't date, avoiding feelings and relationships because this is how your traumas shaped you, do you really get to see yourself?

Thasmin isn't every queer person, it isn't even every sapphic you will ever meet, but no story is. And their queerness isn't the cause of their doomed love, which I find extremely respectful and far from usual tropes.

I can see myself in them, at different stages of my life. I know some aro/ace spec people see their relationship as very queerplatonic and also felt represented.

Maybe you don't, and that's fine. You don't have to see yourself in them, you don't have to like this story.

Just understand other queer people will.

jason todd x biker partner

A/N : just a few thoughts on jason written at midnight, not really proofread, so be kind. might make this a mini series, so feel free to send in any asks of jason with a biker partner :)

- i hc jason with a civilian gf because he has had enough of the vigilante life and having someone “normal” anchors him in the best way possible

- but him with a biker, jesus-

- so lowkey a badass because that just goes with being a biker

- anyway it’s just a pairing that precious to me

- so you guys would meet on your bikes duh

- maybe it’s the middle of the night

- maybe you’re both waiting for a super long red light

- and you know, when you pull up next to him you give him a curt nod, keeping to yourself because yeah maybe you’re a bit intimidated and scared to talk to the hot hunk of man on a supersport bike next you

- but when the light takes even longer than usual, you sigh as you realize what’s happening

- he realizes at about the same time too and his shoulders drop before he looks at you

- “it doesn’t see us, does it?” he asks, his voice muffled by the helmet

- you don’t hear what he says at first and scramble to turn your music off

- “sorry, what did you say?”you ask apologetically, your voice way higher than usual

- he pushes up his visor, chuckling and it’s a sound you’d like to fall in love to

- “i said, i don’t think it sees us,” he jerks the bottom of his helmet in the stop light’s direction

- your eyes stay on what you can see of his face and the black lashes surrounding his dark eyes

- “no, it definitely doesn’t”

- long story short you end up sitting on his ridiculously broad shoulders at 1 am, waving your arms around like a clown, trying to get the light to see you and turn green

- it finally does and after lots of laughing and some flirting, you both get back on your bikes and continue with your night

- but of course you can’t get the hot biker out of your head, not after he laughed at your jokes and lifted you up like you weighed nothing

- not after the searing warmth of his large hands on your thighs, of the words of praise that had left his mouth as he urged you to move around for the sensor

- not after he had been so gentle about putting you down, making sure you were okay

- not after the way he’d let out a giggle when you’d bumped your helmets together when he was setting you down

- needless to say each time you rode your bike or walked around in Gotham, your eyes wandered, hoping to catch sight of the red helmet once more

- you hated yourself for not asking for his number and thought about it at least one a day for weeks

- but you don’t see him for a while, almost long enough for you to forget about him

- almost

- then one evening you break down with your bike

- you don’t know what happened, one sec you were going well above the speed limit, doing fine, and the next second your engine was spluttering and you were hurriedly pulling over, trying not to get hit by any passing cars

- you curse your rotten luck as you helplessly look around your bike, trying to see the cause of the problem

- until you heard an engine

- you recognize the sound, of course, desperate hopeless romantic you were

- and there he was, your knight in shining red helmet

- he pulls over, as does a good biker when he sees a member of his community in trouble, before recognizing you

- “Oh, it’s you !!” he’d exclaimed, sounding genuinely happy to see you as he set his bike on its peg, smoothly getting off

- subconsciously, you wandered how he moved with such grace when he was just so big

- “Yep, it’s me,” you sheepishly answered, hoping you’d have met again under less embarrassing circumstances

- “are you all right?” he’d asked, that concern lacing his low voice again, making your knees weak

- “yeah, yeah, i’m fine, it just died on me and i don’t know why or how to fix it”

- he looked around your bike, commenting on how nice it is (no, you did not blush), poked and prodded a few things before explaining to you what was wrong with it

- you didn’t really remember, all you needed to know was that your bike needed to be towed

- which wouldn’t have been that much of a problem had you been closer to your apartment

- but no, you were a good 45 min drive away with no bike and no apparent way to get home other than calling up one of your friend to come pick you up

- “where do you live?”

- you startle at that and jason immediately puts his hands up

- you ignore the way you see the material of his jacket strain because of the bulge of his muscles

- “sorry, fuck, that must sound super creepy ! i meant that i could drop you off if you like, if you want me to. i totally understand if you don’t though, if you’re not comfortable with that or anything!!”

- you kind of want to cry because he’s so kind and thoughtful and sweet

- “if you’re sure you wouldn’t mind, that would be really great. i live in gotham.”

- “no kidding ? me too.”

- and so that’s how you finally get his number

Could you do a romantic Naoya Zen'in with a female!sorceror!reader please! Thank you!

Oh he's going to be such an asshole... so I hope you know what you're expecting- I'm on Chapter 143, so some info may be wrong.

Possible JJK Manga Spoilers within this for chapters after where the anime (Season 2) leaves off!

Yandere! Naoya Zenin with Female Sorcerer! Darling

Pairing: Romantic

Possible Trigger Warnings: Female Darling, Obsession, Manipulation, Controlling behavior, Sexism, Condescending/Degrading behavior, Possessive behavior, Attempted forced marriage/courting, Stalking, Violence, Blood, Murder, Toxic masculinity, Threats, Forced relationship.

You just know he's going to be horrible to deal with due to his family's principles.

The Zenin family canonically has sexist views, seeing women as just wives.

This is seen with Maki and Mai in the series, Naoya's language only confirms it.

It's canon that he views women as wives and thinks if they aren't three paces behind a man, they should be stabbed in the back (Actual quote, you wish I was joking.)

So it's safe to say Naoya is going to be hell.

He's such an entitled brat, tone and behavior often dripping in arrogance.

He would refuse to see you as skilled.

Being around Naoya as a female Jujutsu Sorcerer often comes with... comments.

Comments literally no one asked for.

Naoya would be degrading and condescending towards you.

He'd often view you as weak.

You could never measure up to him in a battle.

Like he did with Maki and Mai, he likes to break you down.

But here's the worst part.

Naoya would be the type of person to bully you because he likes you.

He definitely finds himself wanting your attention, so he'll get it in any way he can.

It's so easy to hate him, he doesn't even mind all that much at first.

Naoya would hunt you down just to mess with you.

At first it's just because he finds your goals to be stronger preposterous.

Although... before he even realizes it, he may follow you because he finds you attractive.

He likes that you're strong for a woman and might even see you as good wife material.

Naoya stalks you around, watching you kill Curses before stepping in to essentially steal the glory.

It's like in some twisted way he's trying to impress you.

Naoya treats you like you can't do anything alone.

He acts like he should be the man in your life.

He's so possessive... he thinks he owns you.

If he doesn't, he knows he will at some point.

Naoya is a nuisance to you due to both his beliefs... and the growing attraction he has.

You hate his guts... but Naoya feels he can't live without your attention.

He loves it when you look at him, he loves it when you react to him, he finds it cute when you fight him.

He believes he is leagues above you in power... yet adores you all the same.

Naoya would definitely put you down, then try to pull you into relying on him.

He tells you you're weak on your own... that you need him in your life.

In reality, it's the other way around.

Naoya feels he needs you.

However, Naoya is a prideful man and would never want to admit to that.

Naoya would often claim himself to be your man, be that boyfriend or husband.

In fact, Naoya may just jump straight into husband territory.

He's unwilling to believe you have any other choice.

Hate his guts? Sure... but you'll be married someday in his eyes.

He hates it when you disobey him to make him upset.

You want nothing to do with him, you want to be a Jujutsu Sorcerer without Naoya breathing down your neck.

Naoya is a Sorcerer who quickly turns to violence to get what he wants.

In the manga we see him quickly deciding to kill Megumi and Yuji to become head of the Zenin clan.

Imagine if you had a suitor already? Y'know... one who supports your career?

Naoya won't stand for that.

I can see Naoya stalking you until seeing your lover, only to confront them.

As I said, he feels he's the only man and partner for you.

So Naoya would probably kill them... with no regrets... in front of you.

The blood covering his clothes means nothing to him.

All that matters is making you his.

He's such a hypocrite, telling you to rely on him as if you need him.

You're capable on your own, but it's like he refuses to see that.

He wants you to listen to his every order, to beg to be with him.

In reality he's projecting, wanting to do that to you yet his pride won't let him.

At some point he gives in to the fact he loves you.

He loves you, he needs you, why can't you obey him?

The fact you're a woman who won't listen to him breaks him at times.

Yet he's determined to make you his wife.

It doesn't matter what you think of him...

Naoya is a selfish entitled brat who's used to getting what he wants.

He knows at some point he'll get you.

It doesn't matter how much blood he spills to make it happen... or if he has to break you mentally.

He'll make you his... his perfect little wife... who needs him as much as he needs you.

Naoya could drag you into his arms kicking and screaming, the blood on his clothes staining your skin as he grins down at you.

He doesn't care if he has to drag you to your wedding bound.

Naoya knows he'll have you... that you'll be his and you'll give him strong heirs...

You'll learn your role like every other woman in his clan... forced to stay by his side like the good wife he knows you are.

do you ever think reader would storm out of the house after a fight between her & satoru? (referring to ur keeping secrets fic.) i feel like part of her wouldn’t bc she’s also thinking about the kids and she just can’t leave them, but she also seems a lot more grounded than satoru in general. i think the other part of her would also need a minute to step out for a bit bc i just know satoru drives her to insanity. i don’t knoww, satoru’s reaction to her storming out just infects my brain, but i know she couldn’t do that to megumi and tsumiki </3 i’m such a sucker for your hurt/comfort fics

“where are you going?”

“not sure,” satoru says, barely mumbling. “i didn’t ask.”

“you didn’t ask?”

he looks at you, just a glimmer of teasing in his eyes. but the rest of him is apprehensive—he knows what you’re thinking.

he always does.

but he looks back down, shoving shirts into a suitcase in the worst possible way.

“does it matter?” he asks, dryly. “it’s just another work trip.”

“how long are you going to be gone?”

“however long it takes to—“

“can i come with you?”

satoru pauses, and his eyes trail to you.

to you, where you’re standing in the doorway. you only know he’s leaving because of the suitcase, you only know that you can’t deal with him being gone again because of that feeling.

it’s reminiscent of packing your own bag at fifteen. of never returning home.

“you want to come?” satoru’s voice is too smooth, too unserious. “you hate planes. and what about work? you want to take your students too?”

“how long are you going to be gone?”

satoru sighs. he finally relents, walking over to you. his smile is a little irritated, tired. “it won’t take long,” he says, rubbing your shoulders. “you’ll get the bed all to yourself.”

“this is the fourth trip in the last three months.”

he tilts his head. “it’s the same amount as always.”

“it’s—“ you stop.

it’s different.

and your heart is racing, because you’re used to this feeling.

really, satoru has taken regular work trips for as long as you’ve known him. his passport is well used, his suitcase replaced almost once a year.

but it’s different.

because it used to be you, satoru, and the kids. it used to be you and the kids waiting at the door, talking about him behind his back, going to the airport to pick him up.

and even if you missed him, you knew that tsumiki missed him just as much. you knew that megumi was waiting for him to come back just the same—getting restless without someone there to mess with constantly.

it used to be you and the kids, when satoru was gone.

but now…

megumi is at school all week—and even when he comes home, it’s only to keep you happy. so that he can take a break from jujutsu, and sleeping in a dorm right next to yuji’s.

and tsumiki—

you stop thinking about that almost immediately.

it’s just not worth it.

when satoru leaves, you’re all alone.

“i wish you could come. you know how the higher ups are about—“

“why don’t you tell them no?”

satoru is wearing his blindfold, so you can’t see his eyes. but you see it as he leans back, looking at you curiously. “what?”

“tell them no. they’re scared of you, aren’t they? they’re not going to make you—“

“what other special grade sorcerer are they going to send?” he asks, shaking his head. “i hate them too, but if they need me—“

“i need you.”

satoru stops. you want to see his eyes—you want him to stay here.

you don’t want to walk around the house and chat with ghosts. you don’t want to be the only one left behind—the only one who has nothing else.

what about you? what’s supposed to happen to you when satoru leaves you behind?

he’s done it before, and he’ll do it again.

“what?”

“i don’t understand why you have to go,” you say, and you’re angry now. “i’m tired of your work trips, and i hate that you don’t even care, and i hate being in the house all alone—“

“what? what do you mean i don’t care?”

you pull away from him. just to do it first. “you don’t even try to get someone else to do it, you just leave—“

“why are you blaming me? i didn’t ask for this.”

“because you’re always gone! and i’m always alone, and you haven’t even asked me how i feel about it—“

“it’s not like i enjoy doing it,” he says, frowning. “i don’t like leaving you or the kids, it’s just work—“

“i think you do enjoy it,” you spit. and you know that you shouldn’t but, “you like being the only one that they can call. being the strongest. that’s why you haven’t told them no, that’s why—“

“what?”

“is it fun to leave the house? to escape for a week or two while i’m here to take care of everything?”

satoru scoffs. “are you kidding?”

“what? you can admit it. go on and leave. you’ve done it before, satoru.”

his jaw clenches. “if you don’t like being here,” he says, so soft—but you can feel it. the impending blow. “then go somewhere else.”

immediately, your body flinches back. you fall inwards, wanting nothing more than to fall back against him.

but it’s too late.

“i can’t help that im the strongest, i don’t enjoy leaving you—but ill do it because it’s my job. if you hate being alone, then find something else. go see megumi, or nanami, or—“

you take a step back, almost stumbling into the wall.

“you’re putting words in my mouth and i—“

but you don’t hear the rest of that sentence.

and maybe this is your fault. you shouldn’t have picked a fight, you shouldn’t have even said anything.

satoru isn’t to blame for your loneliness. he isn’t to blame for anything.

you turn around. and you walk out the door with shaking hands.

go somewhere else, he said.

and you will.

#to answer your question #i doubt reader would ever leave the house as long as the kids were there #and also the series might not make this very evident #but i don’t think they actually fight much #only when one of them is avoiding their feelings 🙄#even this fight feels kind of… unnatural? for them #and i think satoru would always leave first #because he’s definitely the meaner one when it comes to his anger #i mean in general he’s nicer #but i know he’s got a vicious fury to him #gojo x reader #gojo satoru x reader #a typical family #gojo satoru #gojo satoru x you #gojo satoru x y/n #gojo x you #satoru gojo x reader #jjk gojo

Okay so I was musing about it in the tags of @respectthepetty’s post here but I also want to make a tiny post about it.

It’s only the second episode but does anyone else get the feeling that a significant portion of the show is going to end up coming down to Mew vs Boston?

A truly colossal showdown in which they are going to destroy each other and irreparably damage everyone around them?

As RTP pointed out, both use sex as a means to control. Both have a thing for Top and want him for themselves, but (and I’m might be projecting here) it also feels like it’s going to be about more than that. It’s going to be about Ray and his feelings for Mew. Chuem and her attempts (sometimes half heartedly) to get everyone to get along. It’s going to be about Boston’s inability to recognize his own faults and his belief that he’s better than everyone else. It’s going to be about Mew’s feelings of surperiority towards Boston (and even Ray and Chuem to a certain extent). I even think how Boston is using Nick is going to come into play as well, I’m just not sure how yet.

I posted about it yesterday that this friend group doesn’t really feel like a friend group and a big part of the reason I feel that way has to do with Boston’s barely veiled resentment/animosity towards Mew and Mew’s smugness right back at him. Each thinks they’re better than the other and (imo) both are wrong.

And even to connect it to the post I made about the projector light and Mew’s mugshot from ep1. I’m starting to think Boston got left out of the light because he is the closest thing this series is going to have a bad guy. I mean this show clearly is not going to actually have one, but I think Boston is going to end up filling the antagonist role because the show seems to be more from Mew’s POV than Boston’s. Ray and (Chuem) are partially in the light of the projector to symbolize their more innocent status (again, not true innocence because they have their own issues, but closer to innocence in the battle of wills between Boston and Mew).

They’re going to explode at each other and probably sooner than we think. It’s going to be mutually assured destruction and they’re going to take at least Top down with them. Likely Ray and Chuem and maybe even Sand down as well. I’m not going to even speculate what’s going to happen to Nick because it’s going to be bad, probably almost as bad as (if not worse than) Top.

These are messy imperfect characters who are going to say and do terrible things, both to themselves and each other. They are each the “bad guy” in each other’s story and even in their own to a certain extent. Neither of them are really better than the other and both are going to end up down a rabbit hole they can’t get out of.

I could be very wrong and I might be jumping the gun a little too much but after two episode, this is what it’s starting to feel like to me. I’m not trying to say one is better than the other or that they shouldn’t do what they’re about to do. This is just the sense I get. I’m completely open to being proven wrong. Hell this whole conflict could end up being a red herring before the “real” conflict emerges.

I would love a showdown between Boston and Mew though on any scale. Neo and Book would eat it up and put out an amazing performance. Only time will tell I guess haha.

#are we ready to have a conversation about the definition of “best goalie in the world” yet?#i'm being a bitch but i've held off on this #on the upside at least we were never shut out and we don't have to play fucking *******#to my first point this is the problem with not having a consistent league #international play is so limited that you cannot judge based on that and you cannot judge based on college #i mean tbt to last year's red stars #we should also have a conversation about how obsessed we are with shooting the puck low #and every other team has a couple of snipers #and if we sniped a little more instead of doing the fake outs we might be in a different place #im just so tired #and not to rub it in but we were never going to win the cup #like somehow every team plays their best against us #i hope erin ambrose still gets defender of the year #and i hope ******* ******* does not get 4 awards #like if you see someone coming at you 1-1 have you considered moving back in your crease a bit #i would also be interested to know if the order gets shaken up #because again if you are only playing internationally with the best defenders protecting you #then how much are you really tested #same could be said for campbell though #i maintain that montreal's biggest enemy is their brains #and he was way out of crease on a lot of these #and if you look at frankel or campbell's positioning they are never that far out #also we have to talk about the face offs being atrocious tonight #like i said i'm glad it's over #and like i said before i think i prefer the winning the league situation instead of the playoff setup #maybe minnesota pulls it out #but at the end of the day we are undefeated in regulation playoff hockey #brings me to another point which is would it not make more sense that you have to get 9 of 15 points in a playoff series #and so then the score would be 3-6 and we'd still be in it #like continue with the points system

been think a lot about a post-canon au where yuuji takes on sukuna’s title of king of curses. of course, he is an entirely benevolent figure, but that name carries a lot of weight. everyone expects so much from him, since he’s the strongest sorcerer left alive from the war, and he feels too guilty to object.

he spends years after years helping fix what sukuna broke. training new jujutsu recruits, even if he has no idea how to teach. leading a council of people who either take him too seriously because of his title or not seriously at all because of his age. it’s years of gruelling hard work and watching the few people he had left die, one after the other.

a generation or two down the line, he’s tired. he’s over a hundred years old but he’s still stuck in the body of a sixteen year old. anyone who knew ‘itadori yuuji’ is long gone and all that’s left is a reputation he never asked for, where he’s no longer human enough to be seen as person anymore. despite the begging of the few council members who still respected him, rather than fearing him, he’s had enough. he’s built the structure, a kinder foundation than the one that came before. it’s up to everyone else to build upon it.

so he travels. wanders. never stays in one place for very long, never speaks to anyone past minor pleasantries. there’s no point in building friendships with people you’ll easily outlive. there’s no point in anything, really. he just lives because he has to, even if the reason why escapes him.

eventually, he comes back to have a look around at what’s changed. it’s not really a visit, considering he has no intention of introducing himself to a whole new group of teachers and leaders. that is until he sees yaga again.

jujutsu high has a lot of new students and a lot of familiar faces. it’s like everyone he’d ever known had been reincarnated within a couple of years of each other and it stings, a lot more than he thought it would after the years that should have dulled the pain.

isolation let resentment grow and fester. he’s had decades to look back at the friendships he formed and the bonds he created. some memories he’s fond of, even if they are bittersweet to reminisce over. but he can’t help being jealous and spiteful about it all. these people will get to live happily together and die happily together, a luxury yuuji has never been allowed to experience.

he hates them. it’s a selfish, self-indulgent feeling. it only makes him feel worse, but he can’t help it. he loves them too, in the end. that doesn’t make things better either.

yuuji sticks around. he takes down special grade curses and leaves before anyone can catch a trace of his cursed energy. tries to, anyways. sometimes he’s not fast enough, despite his supernatural speed, because he’s a little too sentimental to drag himself away in time. he lets the people he once knew, now reborn younger and treated kinder, catch a glimpse of him before he leaves once again to wallow in his own misery.

of course, they’ll recognise the king of curses. theres a portrait of him, still kept in the council’s meeting room with copies having been distributed for educational purposes, where he looks uncomfortable and stiff in front of the artist’s gaze. everything matches, from the pink hair to the set of scars on his face to the state of his cursed arms. but they all experience a strange sense of longing when they see him. like they are looking for something more in the brief glimpses of his face, something that is missing, even if he’s a picture perfect copy of that artwork.

the first time he sees junpei, they realise what was missing. it’s not even a necessarily uplifting expression. it’s barely even a smile. but there’s a hint of pleasure in his gaze. that’s what is missing. for whatever reason, they all remember that the king of curses should be happy, even if they’ve never met him before, even if their only knowledge of him before was that he was a quiet, solitary individual who was too kind for his own good but never seemed to expect gratitude in return.

they keep trying to see him smile. they do not realise it was them who took his smile away in the first place.

#thoughts #/#just thinking….#i hate gege he makes yuuji suffer needlessly!! >:(#……anyways in what way can i ruin yuuji’s entire existence today :D!!#i’m just into him being strangely soft for a very specific group of people #junpei nobara and choso definitely #maybe megumi and nanami if i feel like it #but he’s much more cold with everyone else because the memories there are even worse for him to recall #he had to watch them all die but at least he still felt like a human being in their presence you know?#he can’t really say that about anyone else #just the horrific process of being twisted into a weapon and losing all sense of self #but to those few people especially he felt like more than just a personified kill count or a model made of sukuna’s sins #i feel ill about him rn #edit: thought about it some more and it might hit even worse if yuuji still has the capacity to feel some happiness #it just never has anything to do with the jujutsu world #he talks to kids in the park? they get a smile out of him #he gets a job for a little while in a bakery to pass the time? he blushes a little and even laughs when people compliment his cakes #goes shopping for some manga to read? he gets in a long conversation with high school students #and reccomends them some series from his ‘youth’ that he think they might like #even if most of the time he’s tired and more empty than sad #there are brief moments of joy brought to him by strangers #but when it’s the people he’s intimately familiar with? there’s nothing but negativity there #despite travelling he comes back every year to check in with the council #it’s the newest member’s first time meeting him and she’s taken aback by how nice and normal he is #he made them all baked goods to eat while they go over any news #and she finds out that all the odd trinkets in the meeting room are gifts from yuuji’s travels across japan #but then someone talks about the new generation of sorcerers and how strong they are and mentions gojo satoru by name #and she’s witness to yuuji just entirely shutting down #like all the life inside of him has been sapped away in just an instant

can i just say i love how these two bicker all the time? katsuki is such a smartass and minato just cannot resist snarking right back at him and they meet right in the middle. if katsuki were any more respectful of his elders, or if minato indulged him like a spoiled child, their age gap would come across awkward at best and downright disgusting at worst. but as it is they could be high school friends or longtime work colleagues or an old married couple for the way they talk to each other. it’s really fun and refreshing to watch.

#obviously their age gap would be quite worrisome if it were happening in real life #but their dynamic establishes less of a creepy power imbalance and more of a real honest friendship and i love to see it #i understand that this series might be kinda polarizing because like #katsuki is definitely in high school #and he's definitely a super pushy flirt who doesn't take no for an answer #and minato is definitely not setting and sticking to the firm boundaries he'll need to make this kid back off #but the way the writers are handling it isn't making me want to shrivel up and die!#it's funny and even cute!#only out of japan i swear to god #minato x katsuki #akira x shintaro #minato shouji coin laundry #minato's laundromat #wash my heart #minato akira #katsuki shintaro #minato's laundromat ep3

Hello!! Once you finish TRT, do you plan on writing another fic? Do you have any story ideas? I love your writing and how you’ve progressed Matt and Jane’s relationship through the story! Seeing you write for other characters/fandoms, or even an original story, would be amazing!

Thank you so, so much! I do have plans to write some other stuff, yes!

I've had some original novel ideas I've never gotten around to. One is half-written, with a lot of the same humor and slow burn stuff that TRT has, just with more adventures, guns, and post-apocalyptic dinosaurs/monsters. One of the many, many reasons I wound up doing TRT was so I could test out everything I'd learned and see how to make such a large plotline work - now that I've sort of got the hang of it, I want to eventually use that to go back to that original story and flesh it out, finish it, and then try to get that published/self-publish. I'm also exploring taking some of TRT and turning it into an original story of its own - a TRT AU basically, with renamed characters/places and with Daredevil canonical events removed, so I can get by the copyright and keep TRT up online for people. That way we'd essentially get more Matt and Jane; just as variants of themselves in another universe with new adventures! And we'd get to experience them falling in love all over again, which is nice.

The good news is even with all that, I also plan to always keep writing fanfiction! I love fanfic too much not to, although I'm not sure I'll ever do something as massive as TRT for a fic since it's takes a long time to construct something like this. But once TRT is done I'll have a little more time to try out different fandoms, poke my head around, and explore, and there will definitely be long-ish chapter fics, if nothing quiet TRT's size. So there'll likely always be something from me coming! <3

#ask response #i have full intentions to always be writing #definitely!#so there will hopefully eventually be some original novels or series that I might be able to get published or self publish #and fanfic will kinda always be there #i don't see a reason to stop tbh #fanfic is not just a good way to experiment or try out something without the same risks as publishing #it's also relaxing and fun and a little bit like how even painters sometimes paint just for them rather than to sell #sometimes you just want to make the thing because it's fun

deeply glad I persisted with attack on titan. the first half of season 3 was a bit of a mixed bag for me but the second half was fantastic. I knew bits and pieces about the lore but I’m genuinely surprised that the truth about the titans and the world beyond the walls was so satisfying

#i also feel like I've got more context for the controversy surrounding the series now #attack on titan #at some point I might make a post about the question of whether AOT is antisemitic #but I'll wait until I've watched all the available episodes first #it's a complicated question because I CAN see where the dubious implications comes from #the way eldians are treated has very clear and obvious parallels with subjugation of jews #also eldians are capable of turning into monsters. and (according to their oppersors' version of history) they once dominated the world #but I think that reading does miss a Lot of nuance #you're definitely supposed to sympathise with the eldians and the point is hammered home that they are just human beings #it's also very explicitly stated that the 'truth' of the past is disputed #we don't know if the eldians really did subjugate and destroy people. we don't know that they didn't. different groups have different truths #it's also telling that the eldians (or some of them) retreated behind the walls and refused to fight #and yet marley still tried to destroy them #so I can see where the concerns about antisemitism come from #but I personally think the show is a very clear condemnation of persecution and facism #at least so far #i think this show definitely highlights the ethical problems with using inhuman/otherworldly creatures to symbolise oppression #this is present in many more stories than attack on titan #because the truth is: persecuted humans do NOT have supernatural powers or abilities. they are NOT monsters #it's like with x-men; persecuted minorities do not have mind control or swords in their hands. they are not more powerful than you #so when you play into that belief to tell a story it always creates complications #crucially tho I don't think that means you shouldn't do it #I think there's power in those stories because it's a way of saying 'what if I WAS a monster? what if I was as dangerous as you think I am?'#'it still wouldn't be right for you to treat me like this'#but it's a tricky thing to navigate #that's why I'm glad I watched attack on titan at last #because all the second-hand arguments over whether it's facist or antifacist haven't really been useful to me #what IS useful is watching the series with a critical eye and considering the themes and the different ways you can interpret them #i do have a great deal of admiration for this show for FULLY making you buy into the hack-and-slash titan hate #then turning it around and making you think. wait. is it really right for eren to want to kill them all

Question to the One Piece fleet (or whatever the fandom calls themselves): is One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 a good way to get into the franchise? I hear there's a story mode that covers the entire franchise up to a certain point.

#one piece #like obv. it's going to have its quirks and foibles compared to the deliberate and measured pacing of the show and manga and stuff #I'm gonna be mowing down wave upon wave of disposable goons in a way that probably isn't congruous to the series #but like. as someone who hasn't experienced the franchise before #is the story mode at least good at conveying the story and the appropriate story beats in a way #that would communicate what one piece fans love about one piece?#keep in mind that before hyrule warriors I had barely scraped the surface of zelda #i didn't have a lot of the platforms for zelda games and even when I did they were extremely expensive #but after playing botw and hyrule warriors I considered myself a zelda fan through and through. because I love that fuckin franchise now #about to play as many of the zelda games as possible via the switch online emulators. including ocarina of time for the first time #and I would not be this gung-ho if not for hyrule warriors. like I tried emulating oot as a kid and I Didn't Get It #and had massive hype aversion for yeeeeeears #but hyrule warriors was the moment that got me and had me like. oh fuck. i think I'm a zelda fan now #so like the crux of my question is this. it probably won't be the Definitive One Piece Experience. i know that #but will it be enough of like an approximation of - and unabashed love letter to - the franchise #that might make me stop in my tracks at one point and go 'oh fuck. i think I'm a one piece fan now'#like is that a vibe you could see coming from a newbie who's playing pirate warriors 3 as their first major exposure to the franchise?

how to start reading again

from someone who was a voracious reader until high school and is now getting back into it in her twenties.

start with an old favourite. even though it felt a little silly, i re-read the harry potter series one christmas and it wiped away my worry that i wasn't capable of reading anymore. they are long books, but i was still able to get completely immersed and to read just as fast as i had years and years ago.

don't be afraid of "easier" books. before high school i was reading the french existentialists, but when getting back into reading, i picked up lucinda riley and sally rooney. not my favourite authors by far, but easier to read while not being totally terrible. i needed to remind myself that only choosing classics would not make me a better or smarter person. if a book requires a slower pace of reading to be understood, it's easier to just drop it, which is exactly what i wanted to avoid at first.

go for essays and short stories. no need to explain this one: the shorter the whole, the less daunting it is. i definitely avoided all books over 350 pages at first and stuck to essay collections until i suddenly devoured donna tartt's goldfinch.

remember it's okay not to finish. i was one of those people who finished every book they started, but not anymore! if i pick up a book at the library and after a few chapters realise i'd rather not read it, i just return it. (another good reason to use your local library! no money spent on books you might end up disliking.)

analyse — or don't. some people enjoy reading more when they take notes or really stop to think about the contents. for me, at first, it was more important to build the habit of reading, and the thought of analysing what i read felt daunting. once i let go of that expectation, i realised i naturally analyse and process what i read anyway.

read when you would usually use your phone. just as i did when i was a child, i try to read when eating, in the bathroom, on public transport, right before sleeping. i even read when i walk, because that's normally a time i stare at my screen anyway. those few pages you read when you brush your teeth and wait for a friend very quickly stack up.

finish the chapter. if you have time, try to finish the part you're reading before closing the book. usually i find i actually don't want to stop reading once i get to the end of a chapter — and if i do, it feels like a good place to pick up again later.

try different languages. i was quickly approaching a reading slump towards the end of my exchange year, until i realised i had only had access to books in english and that, despite my fluency, i was tired of the language. so as soon as i got back home i started picking up books in my native tongue, which made reading feel much easier and more fun again! after some nine months, i'm starting to read in english again without it feeling like a huge task.

forget what's popular. i thought social media would be a fun way to find interesting books to read, but i quickly grew frustrated after hating every single book i picked up on some influencer's recommendation. it's certainly more time-consuming to find new books on your own, but this way i don't despise every novel i pick up.

remember it isn't about quantity. the online book community's endless posts about reading 150 books each year or 6 books in a single day easily make us feel like we're slow, bad readers, but here's the thing: it does not matter at all how many books you read or what your reading pace is. we all lead different lives, just be proud of yourself for reading at all!

stop stressing about it. we all know why reading is important, and since the pandemic reading has become an even more popular hobby than it was before (which is wonderful!). however, there's no need to force yourself to be "a reader". pick up a book every now and then and keep reading if you enjoy it, but not reading regularly doesn't make you any less of a good person. i find the pressure to become "a person who reads" or to rediscover my inner bookworm only distances me from the very act of reading.
