@yezoki after reading the current chapter 8 of ‘The Things We Become in the Aftermath of Rage’ I just had to doodle this particular scene. Alastor is such a drama queen, I absolutely love your work! 🙏

Atsushi Nakajima x Reader
Tumblr media
A/n:This was a request,made by an amazing person but unfortunately,my fat ass finger pressed post now while I was writing it- and istg I lost the goddam request-.SO ANOTHER TRY.
Tags:Established relationship,crying,gn Reader,fluff,stressed out Reader,Atsushi,Overworked Reader,
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You knew what you were getting yourself into when you joined the Agency with ability. Usually the job at the agency required you to save innocent citizens and solve mysteries. But somehow, the paperwork at the agency had shot up through the roof. There were so much paperwork undone or not finished at all. You tried your best to do those paperworks.
You were tired and stressed at the same time, with the amount of paperwork that was on your desk. But for some reason, whenever you did your paperwork or sent an email to a client, there was always something wrong with them, no matter how tiny or big the mistake is. Sometimes you wished Kunikida didn't have eyes for once. You wished you could gauge them out. But you knew you couldn't.
Atsushi was worried about you. You had eyebags under your eyes, indicating that you haven't slept well in a while. You barely ate anything. Atsushi told you multiple times to eat something or take a rest, But you always brushed him off saying that "I'm fine! No need to worry!", with a smile on your face. He knew you were lying behind your smile. He wanted to take your papers away and comfort you but he didn't want to frustrate you or anger you.
Until....
One day, you were staying up late in the agency (again). You were typing away and everyone had already left beside you and Atsushi. You sighed deeply, just wondering when they were gonna finish. Atsushi went somewhere but you didn't know where. You decided to take a break and sat by the window. Your hands were aching and your eyes were burning because of staring at a screen all day long. You wanted to cry but you held it in.
"Honey! There you are!" Atsushi spoke up, breaking any other thought you had. Atsushi saw your gloomy expression and he put a hand on your shoulder. "Are....you okay?" Atsushi said out loud. You tried so hard holding it in, but you just couldn't.
You started crying quietly. Seeing your tears fall from your eyes made Atsushi panic a bit. Atsushi immediately brought you to hug,rubbing your back and cradling your head softly. Your tears made his shirt wet but he could honestly care less about his shirt. He was more concerned about you. "I- hic I'm just so tired Atsushi, Tired of everything....tired of Kunikida always screaming, tired of clients always complaining, just tired! I just want everyone to shut up for once!" You continued by saying, "I also can't spend time with you! I just feel miserable every time you want attention from me and I can't give it to you because! of! these! damn! paperwork!." You ranted to him, letting everything out. You couldn't keep it in anymore.
Atsushi was quiet during your breakdown. You calmed down eventually, just sniffling every now and then. You wanted to say sorry about ruining his shirt but he put a finger on your lips, shushing you. "Please....don't ever think that you're not doing anything to prove yourself to me. You being here with me is already enough. Sweetheart....You're the best thing that has happened to me. I know that these paperworks can be hard to deal with sometime, But please...don't overwork yourself." Atsushi said these words with a gentle gaze upon his looks. You wanted to say something, anything really but your voice was deceiving you. "Please don't ever feel like you're alone on this, please know when to rely on me as well. I love you." Atsushi kissed your forehead and pecked your cheek. He wiped your tears away and hugged you again, this time he held you tightly.
You were feeling much better because of his words and letting it out. "Oh! I forgot! I'll talk to Mr.Kunikida tomorrow about toning down his screaming." "You really don't have to do that you know..?"
~THE END~
A/N:Honestly- this was my first post ever where someone made a request. I hope you enjoyed reading this!
Requests are open! Don't be shy to request ^_^

Hello! ✌️I wanted to let you know that everyday before going to bed I check to see how my fellow Libra is doing, and that you made me fall in love with Stannis (another one falls victim to his awkward mannerisms and hot sense of justice 😔👊) and Ned (... actually they're pretty similar on these fronts, maybe you made me discover a new favourite type??), but also Tywin (the complexity of this terrible cold man, istg) and Roose ( *chuckles* I'm in danger) You're officially the kind of writer that make me wants to read everything of theirs, even if I'm not in the fandom, so: thank you for your service!
I've never asked any request in my life, but your soulmates au live rent free in my mind and so, if you feel like it, I'd like you to expand on an idea...? I don't have much, but this: soulmate au with Tywin, post Joanna (set in whichever time period you think best, so if just few years after her death, or with Tyrion already grown up) and he discovers that this lady from a minor house (that isn't exactly in good relations with the Lannisters) is his soulmate. And I mean, he knew that Joanna wasn't, but honestly he could never expect to have a similar connection with somebody else but her, so he always ignored that, hoping neither of them would ever meet their "true" half. I expect he would almost resent this, especially if he found in her something that made him admit she is a good match, but would he give up such a thing, anyway? Depending on the soulmate au you choose it might even not be his choice: if everyone see their connection and there is a certain expectation, nevermind if now she's a possible weakness to get to him through the bond they share.
As I've said it's just an idea. Obv ignore if it doesn't tell you anything/there's something you don't like/you don't want to! Thank you for your attention, and once again I must tell you how lovely is your writing, how adorable are your fluffy pets and how dear you are! Coming to this blog feels everytime like coming home ☺️
Sorry if I did any mistakes, English is clearly not my first language and since now that I found my courage it's likely I'll write to you again (if you don't mind ofc), so to distinguish me I can be your Milkyway anon🥛🛤️ (I'm sorry I had to! 😔😌) I actually have no preference: call me as you wish, I'll know which name to take lmao
Have a good day/night!!
first thank you for all the kind words!!! Im always pleased when I drag others into my Stannis hell >:)
So this is a very interesting concept! I did a lot of chewing on it and I have Some Thoughts
So starting from the top, Joanna and Tywin knew they weren't soulmates. They didn't care; they were close from a young age (childhood friends, imo) and they knew their duties and place. Stories and poems of soulmates uniting and having a Happily Ever After were just as common as tragedies where soulmates determined to be together started wars and destroyed entire Houses. The history of Westeros is already bloody and fraught with war. So, like many Highborn lords and ladies, they were expected to ignore it. And anyway, the ability to actually meet your soulmate is difficult in a society where there's no internet, instant messaging, etc.
(Now obviously all this depends on what sort of soulmate AU you're imagining, bc there's so many and they're generally not AUs I'm invested in anyway, but I digress)
Besides, Joanna and Tywin were very in love. For Tywin, cynical as he was, he believed all the talk and absurdity about soulmates obviously wasn't true. Or at least, people placed too much importance on it. For Joanna, she was content. She was in love and happily married and loved her two children. Who was she to go looking for some stranger, whom she didn't even know the identity or age or status of? The two of them were so in sync, they probably didn't even talk about it. They just silently had the same thought - who cares?
Again, depending on what soulmate AU you believe in - like, some say you know when the soulmate dies - the fact nothing happened when Joanna died felt cruel. Tywin still had a mark, or perhaps thoughts, or couldn't see color - again again, theres so many - and somehow... it's like the gods were telling him that she didn't matter. There's no grand change, because she wasn't "The One." He already dismissed the gods before. After Joanna's death and Tyrion's birth, he truly resented them.
Tywin is so used to purposefully ignoring the soulmate business, pushing it aside, that it becomes second nature. Many believed Joanna was his soulmate, though neither of them confirmed or denied that rumor. Perhaps even his children believed it. He never speaks of it, anyway. And if this is an AU where there's a specific mark, naturally he would hide it. It would become like an ugly scar, an imperfection he doesn't look at and ignores.
(More interestingly - if this is a lady who appeared to him when he was much older and she was younger, a soulmate mark/"tell" might appear in the middle of his marriage to Joanna. There was something annoying about his soulmate being some child and later some woman who would be half his age. Joanna actually found it amusing).
Moving on. A situation where he comes into contact with a Lady and she's "the one" - the one all those damned poems and songs are written about - it might actually silence him. Perhaps she doesn't even speak to him. He just knows when she walks into the room. And perhaps, there's that realization that she might have known before him.
(Imagine, depending on your favored soulmate AU, some poor woman finding out Tywin fucking Lannister is destined to her. What's worse; that it's while he's married? Or after Robert's Rebellion? If she's of a minor house, or a Great one? Hiding it from siblings or parents who hate him? What if she's married at the time?! Wild.)
She might actually believe there's a mistake. She's going insane. It must be someone else. Can these things be wrong? A lot will depend on her personal feelings about the soulmate business. Does she pursue him anyway, to see what happens? Does she stay the hell away, thinking it's "too late" for them?
Tywin would go from uncharacteristic shock, to quickly recovering, to full-blown denial. Obviously he was mistaken. Depending on your AU, this may be more difficult to ignore. But by god, he'll try. He's too prideful to even consider approaching her, unless there's a reason. And then he'll speak to her like any other person, determined to not express anything, to act as he always does. Even when they both know the truth.
It would be a long, painfully circular song-and-dance that would only progress under specific circumstances, like an arranged marriage. And even then. He's so damn prideful, not wanting to admit to himself when he begins appreciating or desiring aspects about her. He's so prideful! It's infuriating. And he hates being distracted from work and politics for things like feelings, even if he and Joanna were constantly involved in politics as a team.
It's a Whole-Ass Thing. As yall should expect from this awful man. And lord, if word got out to his family or any of Westeros about it ... madness.

Hi there! And congrats for your graduation! I am really happy for you and I hope lots of beautiful things await you in the future. I am that anon who wrote you about a month ago, by the way... I am very sorry, I really didn't want to make you wait, it's just been a bit of a rough period and I've been feeling a little down, but now I am better :) May I ask for some platonic Jumin/MC headcanons in which they are best friends? I love him, just not in a romantic way. Thank you so, so much again. <3
a/n: you are such a sweetheart :') anything for you <3 i just moved so that's why i've been seemingly MIA. thank you for the well wishes. i wish you all good things as well. p.s. - i'm back babes <3 i'm going on an all-family-required trip in a week or so but I plan to write during the long trip that i'm already mentally preparing for. may or may not be uploading from hotels lol. // kira-chan
Platonic!Jumin x MC Headcanons
alright so let me just begin by saying you two would be absolutely adorable
i can just imagine your dorky little snorts at jumin's sarcastic expressions
you know the thing when someone does something really stupid and he's just like " - _ - "
i firmly believe the friendship between you two would strive for both of you to be better people
like, i think your influence on jumin would make him realize he really needs to recognize his worker's needs and accommodate for them both professionally and morally.
jaehee says thank you <3
as well as yourself
jumin is definitely the friend who teaches you to savor the good moments
like this man is a GOD at stress management
when you find yourself starting to get worked up, he would be there in an instant
"MC, it'll be alright. Let yourself feel what you need to feel right now, but know those feelings cannot control you."
who says jumin isn't a cuddler.
like ok maybe he doesn't look like a stuffed, fluffy bear but lemme tell you
MOVIE NIGHTS TOGETHER..??? Y E S
but he'd also sorta ruin movie nights with his obsession with logical reasoning lmao
"there is absolutely no way that bus would roll off a small vehicle without crushing it."
"jumin it's Fast and Furious let it go."
*pauses the movie again to complain about the amount of 'oil' on The Rock's body*
don't hate me i'm trying to think of the worst movie that you could possibly choose to watch with him
i can't even fathom jumin's reactions to Guy Fieri PFFT WELCOME TO FLAVOR TOWN
you tease him for his bs attempts to sherlock movies
sitting together watching a movie with a blanket draped around both of you
and he's so tall that he'd be such a blanket-hogger too
jumin is the mom friend through and through
you've entrusted him with your like 9 spare keys because you keep losing them
and then losing your spare key
and then one time you lost your spare spare key
so yeah he keeps one on him at all times
that one time you got totally wasted, it was jumin who received your texts riddled with errors
and of course he was the one that insisted on driving you home that night, not trusting you'd make it to your front door even if you took a cab
and let's face it, you probably wouldn't have.
he also takes blurry yet still completely embarrassing photos of you
"what i thought that one of you looked good"
"DELETE IT NOW, JUMIN."
how is it that someone can be so smart and stupid at the same time?
i say he's the mom friend yet he is also a designated airhead when it comes to anything digital
so basically the ultimate mom friend because like have you ever a mom who actually knows how to work technology
the type to get mad if you don't know where you wanna go eat but it's because he doesn't like fast food lol
if you call him something sappy like "bestie" he will saying to the effect of "that's cringe" but secretly he's like "awe bestie"
will remember the little things istg
like your favorite movie is the unappreciated "Atlantis"?
he is extra as hell so bday prezzie would be a casual trip to disney
bc come on that's not even pocket change for him
but mostly he wants you to think he's the best friend you've ever had
i'm imagining you've been friends since high school (assuming he didn't grow up on private tutors)
back then, i imagine he was very anti-social
even V couldn't bring him out of his shell at school
it was your brightness that thawed his seemingly cool exterior
he'd listen to you as you rambled on and on about this book you'd been reading
or perhaps he'd chat himself about some of his random cat photos he'd gotten from V
sometimes you'd take pictures of cats while walking to school to show to him later
like it was the highlight of his week
you became friends mostly (besides the fact that jumin just likes your company) because he never forced him to do anything he didn't want to do
it was so important to him to make his own choices because he lost that ability so many times in his life.
jumin didn't have a say when his father and mother divorced
from seven years old til then, he never felt like he truly had a voice
so when you'd listen to him even if someone else interrupted him..it meant something to him
he wasn't shy, per-say, just reserved.. distant.
when jumin decides someone is his friend, it's very hard for him to ever let go -- he's fiercely loyal.
above all, he's grateful to you for staying by his side and continuing to care for him even now. <3

I have only recently got into the ace attorney fandom, and this story was the first story I read, and I feel spoiled! I absolutely loved every chapter, so I'm gonna word vomit here and tell you everything I love about this!
"She offers him a smile. It’s small, tentative, but it possesses a strength that makes a hidden part of him twist and burn with quiet envy." the first time we see nick's wish to be as strong as mia!
Considering the fact that nick didn't have any prominent figure in his life, it makes sense that he would look up to gregory so much
"Phoenix looks up, and starts walking towards Mia Fey
He doesn't stop for two years."
THE RELATIONSHIP THAT MIA AND NICK HAD WAS PRECIOUS AND DESERVES MORE THAN WHAT THE FANDOM GIVES THEM
"Larry’s arms wrap around him, squeezing almost too tight" People forget that Larry and Phoenix were good friends too, and Larry would help his best friend
"Nobody believed him, nobody but Mia" Maya is what Phoenix is to Mia and I adore that
"He wishes, desperately, that he’d said it while she was still alive. I loved you. For everything you did." Not you absolutely breaking my fucking heart
Also the first AA game felt unnatural in the sense of how seemingly unaffected Phoenix seemed at Mia's murder so I'm really glad you wrote it this way
"Expensive. Thoughtful. Too much." SHUT UP NICK YOU DESERVE ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING
Also quick break to mention how I absolutely fucking love your writing style and i wish I was literally half as talented as you cuz the last time I read something that made me feel this multitude of emotions was ocean vuong. And I practically worship Ocean Vuong. So now I worship you too
"You're a stranger to me // When will I stop hoping?" I never really realised just how badly nick musta been hurt by good ol' bratworth before this fic, but now that I have read it, it would have hurt him so bad
"Is this why you never answered my letters? Because I was a reminder? Because it hurt too much?" Honestly what happened to miles and phoenix's friendship hurts so much because it should have never happened, and miles didn't deserve that.
"Maybe Miles Edgeworth is not the man he thought he’d be, either." yo when I tell you this hurt I mean this huRT
Fun fact! My birthday is on the same day as DL-6 anniversary. Gregory Edgeworth died on my birthday. I feel horrible now
"monster. You were nine years old and he's a monster. " No one has made me feel this much emotion for what happened to Miles in a single sentence other than you. I commend you for that
"I love you," he says quietly. He has never said those words to anyone, except for Dahlia Hawthorne.
Maya sniffs in his ear, crushing him tight. "I love you, too."
He has never heard them back.
PHOENIX HAS NEVER HEARD THE WORDS " I LOVE YOU" COME BACK TO HIM ARE YOU FUCKING WITH ME WHY NOW I'M SAD
"Tell me everything. Every detail—" Miles is worried bout nick and why wouldn't he? gods you're so gay miles but tbf if I knew someone like nick irl i'd go ballistic too
"He determined the motive for his own assault...with amnesia. Naturally." My man's smart af and he is king
"Is that what she thinks of me? That I'm like that? That I don't care about who the bad guys really are?" Gumshoe noooo you're hella precious! Also this particular chapter was so well written! loved this soo much!
Also taking a minute to appreciate the pacing! Rarely do I ever come across an author who just hits that sweet spot of perfect pacing and you did! so thank you!
Alright so here are a few thoughts that I felt capcom needed to do which you did for us!
no. 1 - Address the trauma phoenix faced with not only dahlia but also with mia's death
no. 2 - Actually fucking flesh out a good relationship dynamic between larry and phoenix
no. 3 - actually! have! phoenix! be hurt! in bridge to turnabout! istg my man would not have dropped from a burning bridge to a freezing river only to have a cold
AUNT FRANZY AND PEARLS MAN!
THEY CUTE
ok so I have a LOT of feelings for bridge to turnabout and HOO BOY BUCKLE UP
So I always thought that in this fic, miles must have felt fucking awful! I mean he very clearly hates who he was and what that has led to but that must have been doubled over with this case! Phoenix would have died if not for mia and it would have been indirectly miles's fault. I think about that alot
Like he said that he very much regrets whatever he did as bratworth in the phone call with gumshoe but i don't think he anticipated this. poor edgeworth
Also I think this was the final nail in the coffin for miles. Phoenix forgave him, after all the fucked up shit miles did, and that made that man go "how is this guy so fucking compassionate awwwww shit I'm in fucking love with this idiotic brave man".
my main thoughts were "holy shit phoenix must have been feeling awful." like to learn that you were in love with a person who turned out to be a murderer but then not a murderer cuz everything you felt about that was real and just...... it must have hurt. He never fell in love with dahlia. it was iris, always. and WHAT ABOUT MILES DURING THIS!!! Like to learn that the man you love was falsely led to believe that he was in love with a person he rarely met and then learn that his ex who is not murderous might still be in love with him because "that was real. that part was real." like damn. people just gloss over this
also I feel terrible for iris F in the chat for iris lads.
Dahlia literally haunting that courtroom scene. I felt mia's power. I felt her desperation. I felt everything and I am once again in awe of the absolute power your writing holds.
also godsdamn pearls had to go through all that shit huh. also FRANMAYAAAAAA THANK YOUUUU
I too, am a hoe confused as to what I should feel towards diego.
Ok anyways we jump to disbarment now
"He just winks at her and says Maya has other talents, and if Mystic Maya overhears, she puffs up at him like the fish from the aquarium she saw once, the one with all the spikes and silly eyes."
you know what constantly amazes me? your ability to change tones so effortlessly. When writing from edgey's pov, the language is sophisticated. precise. when writing from pearly's pov your language is simplistic, child-like. from phoenix's pov it's natural. grounded
"She never knew anybody who made faces like him, growing up in Kurain, and it’s one of the things that makes him special." Yo phoenix is the most amazing uncle ever and we all know it ok he's brilliant
I'M RUNNING OUT OF CHARACTER LIMITS
PEARLY CALLING EDGEY AT FIRST SIGN OF TROUBLE I'M SOFFFFTTTT
“I think I did something really bad." trucy baby no it's not your fault
pearl and trucy bonding supremacy. my girls would fuck shit up
"She’d meant to do this properly, one day." Thank you for giving importance to maya's feelings. thank you for treating her like a real human being. thank you
“Everything that happened...for what? It’s only gotten people hurt. Pearly. Our mother.” Me. Me." I felt so bad for maya here. I wish I could tell you in precise words about how this exact framing of the sentence is what broke me. "me. me" maya deserved more, but mia did all she could
"What do scared kids need? ...Food." not you breaking my godsdamn heart again. phoenix just knows what's it like being a helpless child, and he'll be damned if he ever lets anyone face that again
“‘Course, Pearls,” he says reflexively, before frowning. “What for?” reflexively. if every man in the world could be like phoenix wright then the world would be worthy of the gods
"Another one?" give it 2 years edgey she'll be your daughter too
"after countless hours creating the man’s living space in his mind from the background snatches he’d seen in the man’s ridiculous video calls." NOT ONLY DO THEY VC FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON BUT ALSO MILES ACTUALLY SPENDS TIME TRYING TO RECREATE HIS ROOM?? BECAUSE HE WOULD ONE DAY LIKE TO BE IN IT??? good gods these bitches gay. good for them
"because just as day is light and night is dark, Phoenix Wright is an honorable man." damn straight. you love to see it (it being a 27+ year old man pining for another 27+ year old man)
also hey miles! how do you feel about the fact that the man you love changed his fucking major and degrees halfway through college just so he could see you again only for you to be incredibly rude to him and make him end up in jail! (i bully edgeworth cuz i love him)
"Wright finishes, shrugging like it’s nothing, like his commitment and belief isn’t the most extraordinary thing that Miles has ever faced." it's more than pining at this point. it's incredible faith and trust. Miles had someone who cared about him even after all those years despite him having changed so drastically, ofc he would be surprised. Miles loves phoenix and so do i.
also HOT DAMN YOU WRITING IS JUST * MWAH *
Also the whole segment where they kiss is just !!!!! miles wants! it's beautiful! THEY'RE IN LOVEEE
receiving poisonous bottles which your ex tried to kill you with. My man can't get a break huh
Miles being chivalrous and protective and absolutely stealing my godsdamn heart (and phoenix's too)!
Klavier being the absolute king that he is we stan
The hostage situation section? gods miles must have been terrified.
Phoenix not being able to promise pearly that he'd always come back home and miles hearing it and like... ouch. my heart. you didn't need to do that (but i love your for it)
GODS THE CLIMAX WITH KRISTOPH WAS SOOO SATISFYING AND LIKE MY MAN PHOENIX REALLY PUNCHED THAT BITCH HUH
klavier baby I am so sorry
ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL!
and thus my comment ends. I believe I have almost used up all of my commenting limits and i leave with these few parting words : HOLY SHIT YOUR AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU!
also I made a playlist on spotify for this fic! here's the link : https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3k8lRHiO8ZXQDLpiTUL7SN?si=fc3b35b4ab064867
gods this was long huh
GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY....WHERE DO I BEGIN...THE FACT THAT YOU BROKE THE CHARACTER LIMIT ON AO3 AND MADE A PLAYLIST? WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?
thank you so much for all the amazing things you said....i am crying on a Wednesday morning knowing my writing was appreciated this much. thank you!

2020 year end greetings.
Tumblr media
disclaimer: this is going to be very long ( ˶ ❛ ꁞ ❛ ˶ ), but that's how much gratitude i have and so much more of love.
2020. ah, this year was a very emotional journey for me and how i wish i could sing jessi's gucci all throughout. however, that was not the case. tumblr helped me run away from all those irl miseries. these people made me feel at home.
this skz writing blog has been existing from the last few days of september and it came to life when i was losing motivation to write on my main (which i closed down because stray kids made me like writing back again) and it's stayed since then. you guys have stayed since then. grateful, a one hundred times and more.
so, this is rue, getting sappy and so much more thankful for everything i have and recieved with this blog. this is rue, asking you to accompany me for a little more and to listen to the stories i have to share. the is rue with heart full of nothing but love for each one of you.

𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘳𝘦 - angst
𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘤 - and now, in the aftermath, all koushi can smell is poppies and peonies, drowning him in their scent
𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵 - 2.1k
𝘵𝘸 - major character de@th, implied h0mophobia, hanahaki disease, no happy ending, break-up, sam misusing taylor swift songs, so much angst
𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘴 - this is the result of a lot of inspiration screaming in a Discord server. thanks emmy (Noisy_Emmy on ao3), lou (LouEve_094 on ao3) and lena 🤍 also like alskejfljlvkjlkwejkj taylor and daisuga angst together???
also daichi is horrible here but he isn't actually like that istg. i just needed him to be asshole-ish for maximum angst purposes. the timeline's also weird af but i gave up halfway through trying to make it logical lol.
song lyrics credit to august by our queen taylor swift!
⋆┈┈。゚❃ུ۪ ❀ུ۪ ❁ུ۪ ❃ུ۪ ❀ུ۪ ゚。┈┈⋆
salt air and the rust on your door
I never needed anything more
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have seen the signs.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
When they met in first year, the first thing that Koushi had noticed had been Daichi's warm smile. It was reassuring and steadfast, like someone reaching out and telling Koushi "I'm here." And when they stood together on court, Koushi felt invincible, because Daichi was there, a silent pillar that pushed him up, up, upwards.
It was all too easy to fall. Daichi was reassuring, always there, attractive, kind, and before Koushi knew it, he was in love.
He kept it to himself at first, of course. Koushi didn't even know if Daichi swung his way. And, well, he was just... scared. Scared to lose the friendship they had built. Scared to lose their dynamic on the court. Scared to, ultimately, lose Daichi.
whispers of "are you sure?"
"never have i ever before"
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have never dived off that cliff.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
During summer break in their third year, after they had beat Shiratorizawa and were preparing to go to Nationals, Koushi dropped by Daichi's house often. It was natural, of course. They were "best friends", after all, even though one was hopelessly in love with the other.
Longing stares became lingering touches became staying over became-
"I really like you, Daichi."
"Mmhm."
A soft, tentative kiss.
"Are you sure about this, Suga?"
"Yes, Daichi. Stop being such a worrywart."
Foreheads pressed together.
"I'm sure about you."
Soft, soft enough that Koushi's ears don't pick up on it, "But I'm not sure about you."
but I can see us lost in the memory
august slipped away into a moment in time
'cause it was never mine
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have let go.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
They were happy together. It was like being best friends, but with kisses and cuddles and more. Koushi didn't know when he had ever been this happy. The memories were like gilded gold to him, things he never wanted to let go of. He was giddy every time he remembered that Daichi's soft smiles, fond in their demeanor, were for him.
Even if his eyes were a little distant at times.
and I can see us twisted in bedsheets
august sipped away like a bottle of wine
'cause you were never mine
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have known better.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
One night, when they were curled up together in Daichi's bedroom, AC whirring and a few cans of cheap beer left forgotten and discarded by Daichi's bed, sated and content, Koushi's tongue slipped.
"I love you, Daichi."
A sleepy murmur.
He didn't feel the man against his back stiffening.
"O-Oh, okay, Suga."
Even after all that they had done, he was still Suga, never Koushi.
Daichi was probably just shy.
If he had known that this would be the beginning of the end, Koushi would have never let himself be so careless.
your back, beneath the sun
wishing I could write my name on it
will you call when you’re back at school?
I remember thinking I had you
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have been more careful.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
When they returned to school, Daichi acted like everything was like it had been before summer break. Koushi was confused, but it was surely only Daichi trying to protect them. They still lived in the Japanese countryside, after all.
And it wasn’t as if Daichi stopped seeing him or anything! It was just… less time together. But they were third years trying to win Nationals, it was natural for this to happen.
but I can see us lost in the memory
august slipped away into a moment in time
‘cause it was never mine
and I can see us twisted in bedsheets
august sipped away like a bottle of wine
‘cause you were never mine
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have stood up for himself.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Quick makeout sessions in the clubroom, some heavy petting, a brush of pinkies against each other in the hallway - that was all that Koushi had left of the Daichi he had known in the summer.
A soft smile.
Undivided attention.
A warm embrace.
Oh, how he longed for them now.
back when we were still changing for the better
wanting was enough
for me it was enough
to live for the hope of it all
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have run.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Daichi was pulling away, but Koushi convinced himself that he wasn't. Sure, in the deepest, darkest parts of him, he knew that he was losing the dark-haired man, but Koushi forced himself to stay in the moment. Daichi was probably just stressed out from studying and the responsibility of being a captain, right?
After all, Koushi loved Daichi, and Daichi… well, even if Daichi didn’t exactly love him yet, he still cared for him. Deeply.
Right?
cancel plans just in case you’d call
and say “meet me behind the mall”
so much for summer love and saying “us”
‘cause you weren’t mine to lose
you weren’t mine to lose
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have seen the warning signs.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Koushi sat on the bench, fingers anxiously drumming on his thigh. He was in the park behind the mall they went to every Saturday together to get food and window shop. (Well, Koushi shopped, Daichi gave opinions.) Where was Daichi? Koushi had flaked on a family outing with his cousins who were visiting from Kanto so that they could spend time together, but Daichi was nowhere to be found.
Koushi checked his phone again. It was already 1PM, and his last sent text, left on read at 11:30AM, glared back at him.
Slowly, Koushi picked himself up from his seat. It was fine, something had probably just come up.
Three hours later, his phone pinged. Koushi lunged for the device, nearly knocking his desk lamp over.
Daichi 💗: hey suga, sorry for not making it.
No explanation, just a halfhearted apology.
Koushi set his phone back down.
but I can see us lost in the memory
august slipped away into a moment in time
‘cause it was never mine
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have never left his house that day.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Koushi skipped up Daichi’s driveway, intent on spending some time with him that afternoon. He knocked twice, face lighting up when Daichi opened the door, looking adorable in his casual clothes.
“O-oh, uh, Suga - what do you need?” He seemed nervous.
Koushi frowned. “Daichi, I sent you a text half an hour ago saying I was coming over. Did you not get it?”
“Oh, yeah - I-” Daichi mumbled.
Someone came up behind him, slinging an arm over his shoulders. It was the rooster-headed captain from Nekoma. Koushi’s frown deepened. Why was he here and why was he touching Daichi like that?
“Oh! Vice captain-san! Daichi didn’t mention you would be coming over!” he greeted.
Koushi’s heart stuttered. Of course. It all made sense. The stares that went on for a little too long, the lingering handshakes, the too-friendly competition. The only thing he was still confused about was where he fit into the entire thing. He bowed stiffly. “Kuroo-san. Um, Daichi…” he turned to him. “Can I talk with you for a bit?”
Daichi nodded, and he turned to Kuroo. “Just keep playing the movie, I’ll be back soon.”
He followed Koushi down the road, silence falling between the two who had always had something to laugh about together.
Koushi licked his lips nervously. “D-Did we ever mean anything?” he asked softly.
Daichi sighed. “We never were something, Suga.”
“W-what?” Koushi couldn’t find it himself to say anything else.
Daichi exhaled, long and low. “Suga, we were a fun distraction,” hairline fractures in his heart, “for a bit, but it was never something serious.”
Chips began flaking off.
“B-but I love you!” Emphatic and frantic, trying to make Daichi understand.
Another sigh, this one a little frustrated. “I don’t know what this is, but it isn’t love, Suga. You need to open your eyes.”
Koushi stopped in the middle of the road.
“So this is it, huh?” he said, his heart finally breaking into shattered fragments.
“Yeah. Now, if you’ll excuse me…” and with that, Daichi walked away.
The flowers came that night, red and pink, like the blood that stained them.
and I can see us twisted in bedsheets
august sipped away like a bottle of wine
‘cause you were never mine
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi should have guarded his heart better.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Koushi deteriorated fast.
Within a week, he could no longer play volleyball.
Within two, his mother had found out.
Within two and a half, he had refused the surgery, a legal adult now.
Koushi would not lose his ability to love, even if it killed him.
Within a month, he was in the hospital.
but do you remember?
remember when I pulled up and said "get in the car"
and then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
back when I was living for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
"meet me behind the mall"
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi’s last days were placid.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
The memories were painful to look back on, of course. But at the same time, Koushi recalled their moments together fondly. Even if it had ended in an inferno with his heart as collateral damage, his time with Daichi had also been the warmest sunlight.
He knew he was going to die. Everyone around him was confused as to why he didn’t just let them cut out the roots in his lungs, and along with them his ability to love, but they didn’t know what it felt like to be in love, rushing down the path, breathless, overjoyed, free.
Koushi would die before he let that feeling slip away from him, bittersweet as it was.
His flowers were poppies and peonies. Death, love and honor, he mused. Fitting, for his and Daichi’s story. Death was imminent, love was unrequited, and Daichi had turned out to be a man of dishonor, abandoning him.
Koushi supposed that Daichi would get what he “deserved” one day, too, even though his heart hurt for the man, still caring about the brunette even though he had stomped on his heart. He’d noticed how Kuroo looked at Nekoma’s setter, and he knew that like him, Daichi would only ever be a replacement.
It was heartbreakingly intriguing how fate came around back to itself.
remember when I pulled up and said "get in the car"
and then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
back when I was living for the hope of it all
for the hope of it all
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi still had something to say.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
The steady beeping of the heart monitor was interrupted as the sound of the opening of his hospital door filled the room.
Daichi stepped through, and the fragments of Koushi’s heart skipped a little.
“Suga.” he greeted, seemingly uncomfortable. After all, what were you supposed to say to your ex-nothing who you were currently killing slowly, even if it was involuntary?
“Daichi.”
“U-um… How have you been?” he asked.
“As well as can be expected, I suppose.” Koushi replied wearily. Breathing had become a labor in and of itself, and he was having oxygen pumped into his failing lungs. “Why are you here?” he deadpanned.
Daichi at least had the wherewithal to look ashamed. “I came to apologize. I did you wrong, Suga. Please just get the surgery. You’re still my best friend-”
“Stop.” Koushi held a hand up weakly. “You broke my heart, Daichi. These are the consequences, and I’m not going to forgive you just to assuage your guilt. You can’t expect sorry to fix everything.” Daichi’s face revealed a storm of emotions.
Koushi sighed. “Please just go…” he mumbled quietly.
Daichi nodded, and as fast as he had arrived, he was gone.
Those were the last words Koushi ever spoke to anyone.
for the hope of it all,
for the hope of it all
**✿❀ ❀✿**
Looking back, Koushi was at peace.
**✿❀ ❀✿**
“Sugawara Koushi, age 18, died of suffocation from roots in his lungs on August 13th, 2012 at 22:08. The cause of death was Hanahaki disease, and it seems like his affliction was sped along by a visitation by its subject, and Sugawara-san was struck with a violent attack. Resuscitation efforts were unsuccessful.”
- Excerpt from the notes of Dr. Hayato Ayame
Finally, in death, Koushi was letting go.

NEW START
Tumblr media
OC | lex
PAIRING | none
SYNOPSIS | after terminating her trainee contract with yg, lex looks for a new start at kq
POINT IN TIME | august 2016
WORD COUNT | 771
NOTES | official talk is so hard to write istg so please bear with me if this is just bad lol
WARNINGS | none
Tumblr media
Alexa took a few deep breaths and hugged the folder she was carrying closer to her body before entering the building in front of her. Trying to calm herself down, she blew a strand of hair out of her face. The worst they could possibly tell you is no, Lex. It’s nothing bad.
The first thing she noticed was how different everything looked to the YG entertainment building. It wasn’t like she was expecting luxurious headquarters but it was just different. Considering the company had been set up just a few months earlier, it didn’t seem too off though and not having to fear accidentally breaking something worth more than her own life had something very comforting to Lex.
Walking through the hallway, Alexa looked around cautiously, trying to find someone to talk to. “Excuse me?” A voice behind her suddenly called out for her, startling her. As she turned around, an older male looked at her with confusion written on his face. “Can I help you?”
“Uhh, I called a few days ago…? I’m here to talk to…” - “Me. She’s here to talk to me Yonghwan, it’s fine. Oh Aeji, right?” Alexa nodded with a relieved smile and greeted the second man with a slight bow. “That is right Sir, yes.” He led her to his office and gestured for her to sit down before sitting down on the other side of the table and smiled slightly. “So? What is it that could convince me? I already told you, we do not accept trainees.”
“I know but Sir, please, I don’t wish to become a trainee here.” As he raised his eyebrow in anticipation of what she would say next, Lex calmed her racing heart with another deep breath. “I want to become a producer.” She placed the folder on the table in front of her and slightly pushed it closer into the CEO’s direction. It seemed like it took him ages to read through the folder and eventually reach the last page. “I uhm put some samples of my works on a USB drive. I thought that might be helpful.”
“You’re 15, barely turning 16 this October. You’ve been a trainee for… four years? And now you want to become a producer? Do you have any experience in that field?”  His eyes were focused on her, waiting for a reaction. Alexa looked at her hands for a second before looking back up and shaking her head. “Aside from producing for myself every now and then, not really. I took some classes but I was never allowed to actually have any of my works released.” – “What do you think was the reason for that?”
Alexa scratched her neck a little, not exactly knowing what the best answer to such a question was. All she remembered was her grandma reminding her to stay truthful so she decided to just say what first came to her mind. “I guess my work was not yet good enough for the standards that the company wished to have.” She nodded to herself as he thought back to her time at YG and all her attempts to even just get a compliment from anyone at the company for any of the tracks she had made back then. “However, since then I have continued to work on myself and improved my abilities.”
He only nodded. Nothing else but somehow it made her heartbeat quicken at once. A nod could mean a lot or nothing at the same time, so what exactly did this one mean? Without saying anything he pulled the USB drive out of the folder, plugged it into his computer, clicked on the very first file and leaned back in his chair. The barely ten minutes he spent skipping through some of the files were some of the most nerve-wrecking of Lex’s entire life. His face did not give her any hints about what he thought about the tracks whatsoever. When he finally looked at her again, she could have sworn her heart stopped for a few seconds.
“I’ll have someone else look over these and evaluate them. I cannot guarantee you anything however, I will contact you again in the next few days. You did write a number down with which I can reach you, right?” She nodded, trying to supress a smile. “As I said: I advise you not to get your hopes up too high. You’re still young, I’ll have to think about letting you sign a contract here. Just be a little patient.”
Alexa simply continued nodding, a bright smile on her face. “Thank you for taking your time to talk to me Sir!”

Super genuine question, istg. I understand people wanting to see diversity in their shows. Hell, I want to see diversity in my shows. But is it so problematic when a show’s main cast happens to be all of a certain race or ethnicity (NOT the whole cast)? I’m not saying it should be that way (the more diversity the better) but I don’t think it’s necessarily a problem when a show’s main cast is of a single race or ethnicity, especially when the other people of different races or ethnicities are well-written. It’s just like… the particular lens we get into that world. Our initial lens into Ted Lasso is the rich white owner and the white Midwestern coaches she hires to tank the team. And then we expand and learn more about that world just as Ted does.
(If you don’t feel comfortable answering that’s fine, or if I’ve come off terribly that’s fine (who knows I might wake up and be shocked at what I’ve written); but please believe me when I say this is an honest, well-meaning, genuine question.)
Hey Anon, I'm SO sorry, it's taken me FOREVER to get to this. It's partially because I was injured around the time this ask came in and unable to type very well, and partially because this question required a properly thought-out response. This is a pretty complex topic but I'm going to do my best to keep it simple and succinct. That said, my research area is feminist studies, comic theory/humour studies and literary criticism. I did a bit of critical media/film studies back in undergrad but someone else more equipped may wish to jump in if they have something worthwhile to add.
The crux of your question, as I understand it, is about the centring of the white man in western narratives. Your wording – “a single race or ethnicity” – could include narratives that centre people of other races and/or ethnicities. For instance, is there something inherently problematic about an African American sitcom? The answer to this, quite simply, is no. There is not. The problem with this wording is that it assumes people of all races and ethnicities have had an equal opportunity to tell their stories in a truthful, uninhibited way and to be represented onscreen to an audience that includes a range of people from both inside and outside their cultural community. We know this isn't true. So when, for instance, a show like Pose comes along, that focuses on transgender women and queer folk of colour in a particular community and at a particular time in US culture, it is not a problem that their focus is so narrow because this is a perspective we have rarely seen represented. However, in the twenty-first century, when yet another show comes along that centres the white male experience then yes, that does deserve critical attention.
Here’s why.
1. The Male Creator
Your question focuses on race but intersectional feminism tells us that race cannot be separated from gender, sexuality, ability and class. So when we talk about the white male perspective what we are usually talking about is the white, het, able-bodied and -minded, cis man of at least moderate means. Let's call him the whac man for short. Once we put all these qualifiers on him, it becomes clear that the patriarchy only elevates and celebrates a very select group of men. Yet despite the fact that the whac man is technically (in terms of numbers) a minority, he has dominated western narratives for centuries, and even infiltrated and influenced narratives in other cultures.
Some would have you believe that this is because the whac man is so damn extraordinary. He's brilliant, heroic, inventive, ingenious. He pushes boundaries, breaks new ground. He has succeeded in “writing” the world, “writing” culture, “writing” history and all due solely to his inherent worth and hard-won merit, rather than any structural advantage afforded him at birth. And when I say “some would have you believe” I mean he would. The whac man writes culture with the loudest voice in the world. He disseminates his beliefs further than any other competing belief can possibly be broadcast. He is patriarchy’s chosen son, rightful heir. And since patriarchy creates the soup in which we all swim, I totally understand why someone might ask this question. Because it seems normal to us, it seems natural, it seems even fair that the whac man continue to cast himself as the ultimate culture-maker and the innate centre of humanity.
2. The Universal POV
By continually casting himself as the centre of humanity – i.e. “mankind” – the whac man has configured his point of view as the universal point of view. He has done this with the sheer mass of narratives that view the world through his eyes, as well as by preventing other narratives from being heard by any means, including stealing, censoring, limiting or discrediting them. What this means is that every single person raised in a western milieu, despite their gender, gender identity/expression, sexuality, ability and class, is indoctrinated into seeing the world through the whac man’s eyes. Whether we like it or not, we are instinctively sympathetic to it, biased based purely on its pervasive familiarity. We therefore become unconsciously complicit in the whac man’s objectification of women, his homophobia towards gay, bi and queer people and his intolerance towards anyone differently abled or non-binary presenting. We are told that this is the only way to see the world, the correct way, the natural way, the best way. Because the whac man is the intellectual pinnacle, the trustworthy ideal, the unassailable core of humanity so if we identify with him, we can claim some of his power and perfection.
Obviously, this is a fucking fallacy. Because we all instinctively know where we fall in the patriarchal power dynamic. If a whac man is the ideal human then a white woman is one step removed from this ideal. As is a black man, a gay man or a disabled man. The more qualifiers you add to your identity, the further away you are from full and ideal humanity. You become less important, less powerful, less heard and less human. It’s pretty easy to see this reflected in the make-up of the Ted Lasso cast. Ted, as the ultimate whac man, sits at the centre of this universe and even gives it his name. Surrounding him is Beard, Roy and Rebecca (despite her gender but because of her wealth). The next step removed from him would be Jamie, Keeley and Nate (due to his position but despite his skin colour). The other men and woman (singular) of colour only really exist on the periphery of Ted’s world, with their main role to serve the profundity of the whac man's narrative. Just as in the real world, they are less important, less powerful, less heard and less human. They are narratively marginalised and ultimately pretty replaceable.
To be clear, I'm not saying that Ted Lasso is single-handedly responsible for this dehumanising of everyone who isn't a whac man. This is an accumulative impact that’s occurred over centuries but one that has very real modern consequences. Narratives are powerful. They are how we make sense of the world and ourselves within it. And we have had centuries of narratives, with very little respite, that centre the whac man as a universal figure we can all identify with. If you have grown up with streaming services, you may not remember a time when 85% of narratives were led by a whac hero. Maybe 10% centred on women, 5% focused on people of colour.* And the LGBTQI+ experience literally did not exist, except in coding. Unfortunately, that 10% that centred women was generally watched by women. The 5% that centred people of colour was watched by people of colour. And that 85% that centred on the whac man was watched by everyone. So while everyone was culturally encouraged to identify with the whac man, the whac man has never really been required to deeply engage or identify with any perspective other than his own. As such, there is abundant trust, empathy and allegiance flooding towards the whac man that is not necessarily reciprocated.
I'm not sure whether this has changed in recent years, with the supposed democratisation of entertainment offered by streaming services. There seems to be greater representation in programming but who is watching it? Is it enough to begin breaking down our cultural conditioning to instinctively inhabit the experience of the exemplary whac man? And is it enough to create understanding in a whac man who is so profoundly unattuned to the experience of anyone other than himself?
*these are anecdotal not official stats
3. Invisible Patriarchy
One of the most Insidious aspects of this universalisation of the patriarchal viewpoint is that it invisiblises the structures and impacts of patriarchy because the whac man doesn't experience them. The whac man never experiences sexism, homophobia, ableism or transphobia. These are not barriers for him. He must, in his narratives, invent barriers to push through: professional, intellectual, physical, metaphysical barriers that prove his heroism, his dogged individualism, his ingenious lateral thinking, his admirable rebellion against structures set up by……wait a second, by him? It’s hugely ironic that the whac man is so often cast, whether in film, TV or literature, as an underdog, a maverick, a trailblazer and initiator. Because in reality, the whac man is a figure of convention, an embodiment of the status quo. And truthfully, no one pushes harder than he does against true underdogs, mavericks and trailblazers who are attempting to remake the world he has stamped as his own. There is nothing underdoggy, mavericky or trailblazery about the whac man experience. He is set up to succeed. The barriers to his success are fewer than anyone on this planet.
To be clear, I am not talking about the viewpoint of any one whac man but rather the collective viewpoint granted him by virtue of his cultural positioning. I'm also not saying that patriarchy doesn't negatively impact men. One of the main things Ted Lasso gets right is its examination of toxic masculinity and its impact on men. (It just doesn't examine, at least in s2, the far more detrimental impact of toxic masculinity on literally everyone else other than whacs). Unfortunately, if the point of view of a narrative is that of the whac man and the whac man only, it is going to feed into this universal patriarchal viewpoint simply because of its cultural familiarity. And this too-strong identification, accumulated over generations, leads to people who are negatively impacted by patriarchal structures being literally unable to see them.
These people actually become blind to patriarchy because they’ve never seen these structures and impacts truthfully represented in popular narrative. If they don't exist for any of the (whac male) onscreen representations of humanity, then they simply don't exist at all. And what is left is a world that looks fair and natural to them. THIS is how we end up with women rejecting feminism or opposing reproductive rights or voting for the ultimate whac man in a bad toupe. THIS is how we get to masses of people identifying with a white cop standing on a black man's neck rather than the black man who died. THIS is how we get to people identifying with the whac men and women legislating what happens to trans people’s bodies rather than the actual people inhabiting those bodies. Our focus, our identification, our allegiance is with the wrong people and this is largely due to the stories we listen to and who has told them. This is what I mean when I say narratives have power and real-world impact. These are, in my opinion, the very real effects of an overabundance of celebrated whac man narratives.
4. Bonding with the WHAC man
So how do you get someone to identify with a perspective that is so detrimental to them rather than stand in their own unique perspective? Make them feel. Create empathy. This is why the whac man casts himself as the plucky underdog, the lonesome maverick, the genius with a dark past. Identification doesn't work through the eyes or mind. It works through the heart. Then it gets into the eyes, mind, body and life of a person. This is the power of narrative; this is why corporations, governments and movements all deploy narrative. It is not just how we understand our world, it’s how we bond to things in it. That's why we need to interrogate the narratives told, to make sure they are ethical, that we are bonding with the people, places and things that truly align with who we are and what we, individually and collectively, value.
Like many, I bonded with Ted Lasso. But I bonded with it through its female characters. Ted Lasso won a lot of female fans, I think, despite its whac POV. I know I saw the trailer and went “oh my God, no thanks!” simply because it looked so traditionally whac. S1 focused on Rebecca though – she was arguably the protagonist and undoubtedly the character with the greatest emotional arc. And you could absolutely critique this white feminist perspective and the whac writing that underpins it. (Rebecca is an attractive, able-bodied and -minded, white woman, i.e. the sort of victim we as a society prefer to highlight, despite the higher rates of abuse experienced by women of colour and women with disabilities, for example).
S1 was also a super friendly watch for the sensitive whac male viewer, who could feel like a good guy by identifying with Ted as he comforted and rescued Rebecca from Rupert, rather than having to align himself with Rupert, whose violence was in the past and therefore never fully exhibited. This is a phenomenon that exists in the real world too. In cases of rape, sexual harassment or assault, women are more likely to be believed if there is a whac man to corroborate their story. Not only do we all trust his judgement, because the discourses and narratives we've been exposed to have repeatedly told us to, but we can all be comforted by the #notallmen aspect of having a hero present to report on the bad man. The whac man, who expects to be represented in all stories, still gets to see himself as the hero and the rest of us get to breathe easy in the knowledge that we do not need to face the monumental task of smashing the patriarchy. All we need to do is condemn one bad man. He’s the problem. Not the structure that created him and us all.
Honestly, at this point, I’m kinda convinced that part of the rush everybody felt for s1 of Ted Lasso was less to do with the ground-breaking writing of Rebecca Welton and more to do with the revelation that is Hannah Waddingham. We all just fell in love with her and no one can be blamed for that. But in s2, even this complex female experience seemed to vanish from view and I watched as female fans struggled to find their place in the Lasso-verse. They were in good company, since queer folks have never really had a place in this universe. Of course, fandom culture doesn't skip a beat in filling in the glaring gaps left by whac-y writers. That is what fandom does best: find the lack and imaginatively fill it. The question is: should we have to?
5. “Ted Lasso” s2
I suppose you could argue that, while there was little offered in the way of a female or queer point of view, more was offered this season to diversify the male experience. We got an episode of Dani, an episode of Isaac, and an arc each for Nate and Sam (despite problems with both). But is this enough? Is some peripheral Dani and Isaac, along with some highly problematic Nate and Sam content enough to balance out aaaaaalllll the Ted, Beard, Jamie, Roy and Higgins? I can't answer that question because I didn't watch enough of the season. In terms of the emotional charge I saw generated, the impression I got was that there was a lot of empathy for Ted, some of which was at Nate’s expense. And look, I get that Ted is super loveable. You can love him and identify with him despite being a different gender, sexuality or so forth. But this is not just about viewing the world through Ted’s eyes. It’s about the underlying construction of the piece, the space from which it is conceived. And for me, there was simply too much Jason, Brendan, Joe, Jeff and Bill (such whac names if ever heard a whac name). In short, s2 of Ted Lasso was just way too whac for me.
I think if the examination of toxic masculinity had been a little bit more balanced, I might have stuck it out. If the minor blind spots of s1 hadn’t turned into major, highly hubristic blindspots in s2, I would have seen it through. But s2 kinda turned into the show I thought Ted Lasso would be before I watched it and was pleasantly surprised by it subverting my expectations. And personally, I can't help being cynical about the timing of this latest crisis of masculinity. Because whac men always go into crisis when other voices get louder and other people start getting rights (please see: the masculine modernist movement in the 1920s-ish cos history is repeating). At this point, I have limited empathy for the plight of the whac man. He has had enough of my attention, empathy and allegiance. If he is going to continue to write narratives then he's got to do better than in the past. If he is going to continue to write narratives, then he needs to be scrutinised closely and held to account. And anyone who is not a whac man simply cannot afford to sit idly by as he creates and recreates the world in his own image.

Alright, I finally read Reincarnation no Kaben
AFTER MONTHS (it’s probably been a month? My mind doesn’t keep track of the days) I FINALLY CAUGHT UP TO RNK. Ty to Okita anon for the recommendation (* ̄3 ̄)╭💕💕💕 I absolutely loved it. 
After this I’ll start on the other recommendation you gave me. I kept a bit of a log of my reading journey under the read more tag. 
Major spoilers for literally everything in RNK up to ch 53 “Withdrawal”. 
Oh, and I’ll finish answering all my leftover asks and I SHOULD have a fic done by tomorrow. I was so ready to write and then I got up. Now I’m back to bed. 
I’m just gonna write this as a log since I read super super slow and I’m only on ch 7 at the start of writing this but I’m really liking it already. Though to be fair. I love everything okita anon recommends haha. I remember you saying you were simping over Kouu and I haven’t gotten to the part where he appears but I wanted to quickly google what he looked like to prepare myself and I see this:
Tumblr media
Well. That’s reassuring. 
I was actually kinda surprised by how many western figures were in the manga since I know there are only like 7? Around 7 western figures that pop up in any anime/manga but seeing people like Albert Fish was kinda surprising but I really liked it. Also, at the end of certain chapters they write little bio’s on them so you get to know more about them was such a nice touch.  I also love that the tradition of making males -> females still stays strong even outside the fate universe hehe.
---
Literally, the next chapter I see him. AHHHHHHHHH. Well maybe not him but his eyeballs. 
Tumblr media
This guy lowkey reminds me of the MC’s brother but it’s 99% because he has the same long ponytail. I wouldn’t be surprised if the brother was apart of the the Greats. Honestly, Ein reminds me of those really hard headed girls that are actually really kind on the inside but aren’t good at expressing themselves (maybe because that’s pretty much her character). I also like that Ein doesn’t like males but she’s hiding behind this guy. At least, I’m..99% sure this is Ein. 
Tumblr media
I FUCKING KNEW IT. AS SOON AS I SAW HE GOT A THEIF TALENT I COULD FEEL THE SOLO LEVELING VIBES IN ME. HE CAN STEAL TALENTS I FUCKING KNEW IT!!! I’m surprised that Neumann didn’t say anything and  Haito seems to be aware of it.  
Edit: Ah okay, I understand a bit now but it almost seems like Haito is the only one aware of Toya’s second talent.
Edit 2: Okay, as much as I love power hungry MC’s I’m really glad they didn’t make Toya into that. I am such a softie for sympathetic and kind MC’s like these even though it’s been done so many times. I’m really glad this didn’t feel like a rehash. I mean, some points some of the stuff Toya says it does but it’s fine, I don’t mind that. I actually gave a crap about him since I usually prefer the side characters (I UNDERSTAND ANON, I CARE ABOUT KOUU SO MUCH AHHHHH) but HAITO?? AHHHHH. 
Tumblr media
---
Tumblr media
I like that Izo always has the same hat in every adaptation he’s in lol. Istg, cats are always op. Schrodinger seems so strong and the parallel universes are my absolute shit. Sometimes I think, in one universe I did this and in this universe I’m not. Would I rather stay in this universe or be in the one where I am actually productive. Usually I pick the productive universe and actually work but sometimes I’m a bit of a slacker haha. I think this is my approach to a lot of things in life. But I digress, I don’t wanna get too deep into my life. 
I can sorta sympathize with the sinners. At least the ripper guy to say the least. I love love love unhinged characters that just want to basically destroy the world or at least have fun. But then you find out- wait they are actually sympathetic oh no. That’s how I felt about Djoser in “im the great priest imhotep” (please...i beg...someone read this...I’m so starved). 
As much as character development and rooting for the hero is cool and all, I just want to simp for the crazy “let’s burn the world to the ground” kinda character. I’m also so glad Toya doesn’t automatically become evil and try and steal everyone’s talents because he does seem like a good person and I really don’t see him suddenly switching fields so when he saved (I don’t remember names I’m sorry), the undead solider it was really nice. Proves that he still has his humanity and isn’t strictly relying on the branch of sin. 
It makes sense that he wants to steal talents since he never had one (and it was kinda out of left field when he killed Vlad and we just never addressed that ever again haha) but to see him actually consider his actions and if he actually want’s to steal his teammates talents feels right to me. Poor guy doesn’t seem to have a lot of friends so this is the first time he’s ever seemed to have companionship, aside from Haito, so I really hope he doesn’t attempt to steal their talents. I think I’m thinking of the slime? That time I got reincarnated as a slime manga/anime. Where he’s the pokemon catcher of skills. I thought that was where it was going. 
But I do kinda like how selfish Haito and Toya’s talent stealing relationship is (I mean, later it develops but my first draft of writing this I wasn’t there yet). I’m not sure if selfish or like self-gratitude/pride is the right word but it’s kind of a breath of fresh air. Rather than Haito trying to contain or “help” Toya’s inferiority she’s actually encouraging it and using her own talent for her own...acknowledgement? Er, yeah let’s go with that. 
---
Tumblr media
This. This interaction. I love this. Like, genuinely love this. We need more of this. Two people from opposite sides finding some common ground and their fight to the death is less about morals or whose on whose side but for themselves. I love that. This is actually some wholesome stuff. 
Edit: AHHHHH CATCH MY UGLY CRYING IN THE BACK BECAUSE ALL THE “SINNERS” ARE ACTUALLY AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. IM DEAD. YOU’VE KILLED ME. 
---
Tumblr media
I KNEW IT! YOU CAN NEVER TRUST THESE KIND OF PEOPLE!! I’m going to slap the whiteboard on this but if I see any “goofy” character I’m immediately sus of them. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As much as I hate that Hitler is getting drawn as a small child I really like this. I know the whole, oh I killed your friends but I’m letting you go because you express humanity but I’m gonna finish my death with a sympathetic line, can be annoying to people but idk I really liked this. 
Honestly this and the undead soldiers death hit me hard ngl. This manga might not have my favourite art style during some points compared to like main stream manga but it has some really beautiful scenes. 
Tumblr media
BOOM CALLED IT, though it’s pretty obvious lol. 
Tumblr media
THE PONY TAIL NEVER LIES AND HES DA VINCI IT MAKES SENSE NOW
Tumblr media
He looks so cute lol. I like that Seiya has the talent of being talented in everything while Toya has the talent to steal other talents. Seiya can probably only cap his power by his own physical/mental abilities with Toya can pull a solo leveling and go further beyond. Thinking of it like jack of trades vs master of none type deals. Though, I might be thinking too hard on this. I like that this man is actually humble but I really wish there was a tiny bit more to him since we only get this one interaction/backstory but the manga isn’t completed yet. I really hope we get to know about Seiya more;; like how he became da vinci or etc. 
Tumblr media
Everytime I see Neumann I look at that comic sans type and it kills me on the inside. But I love that her eyes are 01 just, mwah perfection. These little details that aren’t that big but it’s soooo nice. I also ahem, unhinged character heart be still. It’s really nice reading manga in bursts because you can see the art progression and damn does she look good. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
tiny fang appreciation post. 
Tumblr media
ngl i’M HARD SIMPING FOR THIS MAN. It’s the pony tail, I have such a thing for guys with long hair (and this is why genshin broke me) but man the art really picked up here. 
I didn’t get into it but OKITA ANON I GET IT. KOUU??? AHHHH. WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DIE??? As much as his whole “war” was a bit questionable in the beginning and tbh I still don’t really get it I like that he knows he’s not the same as the other Greats but still tries to help the other “sinners” in a way only he knows. That’s why Seiya was so important;; I get that he wanted them to have a fun death and to be understood but idk, the whole war idea and having them kill each other (especially the Hitler fights because I understand the others since they reached some kind of acknowledgement) but nonetheless, what a great guy.
Nightingale gives me mad masaki vibes from chainsawman. I hate them and I can’t wait for you to fail, but the inner part of my is cheering for you because unhinged characters are my shit. I feel really bad for Neumann, I had suspicions she wasn’t actually like that since it’s sooo out of left field but I’m really glad the manga seems to know what it’s doing. I really wish we got more Kouu interactions with everyone tho. 
Tumblr media
NOW THIS. THIS IS SOME WHOLESOME STUFF. I WANT THIS. I REALLY WANT SPIN-OFF OF REALLY SAD ANIME/MANGA/STORIES WHERE ALL THE DEAD PEOPLE HANG OUT. That’s how I’m feeling about JJK and the scroll segments or BSD WAN that just came out. IT’S SO WHOLESOME TO SEE EVERYONE NOT TRYING TO KILL EACH OTHER. 
Tumblr media
UGLY SOBBING IN THE CLUBBB AND KOUU AND CHARLOTTE AHHHH. I hate how this is phrased but the respect I have for Hitler?? YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW HARD THAT IS TO TYPE?? Kitazuka is cool tho, I really like him. Some god given talent. I’m hard simping over him but I really hope we get to know more about him later. 
Tumblr media
Getting smug mona vibes, I love this. 
Tumblr media
AHHH IVE NEVER FELT THIS UPSET OVER AN APPLEEEE. I’M ACTUALLY UPSET. IF HE DIES IM ACTUALLY GOING TO CRY MY HEART OUT. 
Tumblr media
THE FAMOUS SLAP 
Tumblr media
I’M SORRY WHA- SLENDERMAN?
Tumblr media
Oh..wow. Okay, be still my heart. When I first saw her I thought she was really pretty but now I’m absolutely smitten. God damn, can I please have some more crumbs on these characters before they die;; 
AHHH SAME GIRL FUCKING SAME????? I adore these small panels and translator notes. It’s a real breather after the sad 3am hours talk these characters go through. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yagyuu. Jesus christ. WHY ARE ALL THE DEATH SCENES IN THIS MANGA ACTUALLY SO PRETTY AND STABS ME IN THE HEART??? that’s it. goodbye. im fucking out. im actually so upset rn. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME? 
---
In conclusion, and I should probably re-read what the characters say and not go off on memory because I’m about to get really deep. I really like how they phrased why they wanted to stop the branch of sin. That there are people just like Toya and Haito who, if they never found the branch of sin, could still probably lead respectable and okay lives. That there was a “them” in another universe that didn’t go down that road and that they want to be in the same universe as “them”. I know this sounds really confusing if you haven’t read the manga but going back to what I said about the parallel universe stuff. 
There was a universe where Toya and Haito didn’t rely on the branch of sin, that even without their talents from becoming a returner, they could still live a happy life given their own personalities and attitudes. It was kinda moving since in the beginning, Toya wanted a talent so badly and now that he has one. He’s realizing that wait, I don’t need a past life talent in order to live. Honestly, I hard relate to that because I totally agree with him. If you have a talent you can probably live a very happy and comfortable life that other factors wouldn’t matter if you just have that incredible talent. Thinking of it as a painter or artist, if you had actual god-given talent you wouldn’t need to worry about other factors since people would naturally seek that talent. So you end up comparing yourself to others and setting that limit on yourself. 
But that’s okay, it’s completely natural and I’m not saying it’s horrible if you do this. Fuck, I do this all the time. I’m not saying the manga is changing my life but it’s kind of refreshing that it get’s talked about since other adaptations of this just make the character super OP. I understand wanting to have that incredible talent, fuck who doesn’t? but you don’t need it in order to live earnestly in the bigger picture sense. Not everything you do has to be productive and honestly, learning to be okay with having fun is nice. Just being okay with who you are right now, even if it isn’t perfect in your eyes, you still have time to build upon yourself and your own talents but doing it for yourself. 
But I probably missed the point and I’m going way to deep haha. But I really enjoyed reading this and thank you once again to okita anon for the recommendation^^ I always love everything you send me and I’ll start reading the next one. If anyone else has any recommendations let me know!

So I’m live blogging this show to help keep track of this in case I wanna write fic later don’t judge me! Guess who just learned their phone can run google translate while watching shows in other languages? This Guy! Wish me luck.
1
The smoke monster from lost’s cousin is attacking a highlander?!
Ok so she just magically blasted him into a hole in the ground but you know what you don’t see? A BODY, how do you know he’s dead.
She’s taking smokey eye shadow way too seriously if you ask me. 
Yeah just let that magic amulet drift away guess it won’t rust or rot.
 Ngl if I didn’t know I’d think the kid was kirill but that would mess up the timeline since photographer doesn’t age between these scenes. Wouldn’t that be funny though. Like he found it as a child then gave it away only fit it to be given back.
 You gotta admit the scenery is beautiful though and the theme songs nice but I need the lyrics. 
 Ah. Sorry but even if you had no choice doesn’t a person being in a well mess up the water. If he were in America he’d have a bullet wound possibly by now. Stranger on your lawn punch em. Don’t take amulets from strangers or work acquaintances.
 So he’s like the punching bag of the offence and now their farm house. His nose is bleeding like he’s in an anime but gotta get that blood sacrifice material from somewhere right. Lol 
 Even if you’re his boss that’s a dick move making fun of him and not saying at least my bad yo just saying. Sweetie you deserve So much better than these rude people don’t let then get to you. Now’s your big chance at an article dude give it your all. 
 And out of the frying pan into the well. Wakes up in a well dazed and confused. Sure he sounds crazy but like how else would he be in your well like y'all didn’t see him get in and I’m guessing you lock your property here. 
 And they were roommates! She’s his sister but I’m wondering who’s older in canon because even if they’re real ages are diff canon can say fuck that  
So like if any water is magic conductive I hope they don’t use a toilet. The fbi would wet their pants for this kind of ability. 
 So both them hate their jobs. Mood.
 Sasha fake crying to win their argument. Acting.gif 
 They’re supposed to go traveling on vacation or looking for new jobs in s another place. 
 This poor guys gotta write about chupacabra. Let him write about what we wants for once. see what happens. ReSearch on the blood sucker. Sticky keys. Don’t break you’re laptop. 
 Fanfic writers in a nutshell. No writers ina nutshell. 
 Creepy magic is happening. This Warlock better pay their damn water bill istg. Wasting water in this house not on my watch. So like does the water have to be pure as drinkable or what. Sasha thinks they’ve got plumbing problems. 
 The editor wants him to lie and embellish statements on witnesses for the goat sucker. Kirill wants to use facts and be b real but editor isn’t having it.  
Underground evacuation say what. Editor is making fun of kirill for looking like he stayed up all night writing which he if course did duh. We’ll hire someone else. 
Oh no. His works due by tomorrow and he’s dead inside from getting shot down. Poor guy. Gonna drink away his sorrows. Did this attractive lady just call him an alien.
 Don’t call yourself dumb kirill. 
 Is she actually interested or is she a hooker though? He went in for a kiss. He’s drunk. He’s shy. He’s leaving. He’s sorry. 
 Magic dogs are gonna eat you boy. Zen gardens are magic? 
 Oh no kirill is gonna be eaten by the clown from it now. He was swallowed whole by the sewers. 
 How rude. A light slap would do not pouring water on him. Hellshake his shoulder. At least their nice enough to share lunch. 
 He needs his passport. Sasha I’m in another provenance or country please help . So he’s not within walking distance or a car bus ride 
 He goes day drinking and ends up in another country go figure. They don’t have money for a plane ticket or whatever and he’s got no passport on him. He’s stuck. 
 He’s not wrong about saying they’re beating him up their son’s punch knocked him out and the dad waved a gun at him. He’s gotta get out before they decide to kill him. You in danger boy. 
 He’s paying them to use their phone. He’s gonna go broke. how much did he have left over from drinks at the bar  though. 
 So do they think kirill is a freak that’s attracted to their well yet? 
 Arthur is the gay best friend people want but don’t deserve.
 Is this guys nickname lemon or melon I can’t remember right now. He thinks his brother Max is calling and says he almost lost his virginity?
 I still don’t get why Mac is going crazy. Is it heat exhaustion, did someone offend him, does he just have violent outburst without Control and like they don’t know about medicaion or he hasn’t gotten around to being tested, maybe it’s just bad writing for laughs i guess. 
. Eat some chocolate dude, drink some water your not yourself when you’re angry. Max no chainsaw! Put that down. The knife meme upgraded
 So he's like working at a construction site but he's trained in medicine. Is he the medic or just happens to know stuff and he’s working a job out of his field of profession.
 Kirill is trying to find a switch to make atrap door in the well take him home. Your poor beautiful idiot it's magic man.

Well, well, well, look who’s back with the most morally repugnant update in Union history. Me. It’s been a very productive summer of Netflix, chill and giving wrong directions to tourists but all good things must come to an end. Also coming to an end is my ill-fated attempt to kill Max, who, after refusing to eat the cake FOR 2 FUCKING DAYS is finally released from the cage of death. Honestly, I’m impressed, Max, you’re definitely not as stupid as you look.
-Yea, I get that a lot.
I doubt that but whatever, now gtfo and I better not see your Komei-clone ass around Jojo ever again or it’s back in prison for you!
Tumblr media
-So, Jojo, not that we’re not all extremely invested in the excruciating selection process of your husband, but are you any closer to picking one?? I mean I love this whole commune thing we have going but the constant food delivery for 8 is killing us.
Tumblr media
-We’re afraid not, dear brother, it’s starting to look like no one in this world is worthy of our majesty.
Ugh are we really doing royal ‘we’ now? Is this what this has come to?
-Yes, college has really helped develop our sense of self-worth.
How can it be self-worth if you’re ‘we’?
-This is exactly the kind of idiotic questioning that would get you eliminated from the suitor process. 
Oh, perish the thought! And miss out on this classical-music-dick-measuring-contest you have them doing?
Tumblr media
-Ew seriously, Francis, Vivaldi? Why don’t you turn up to Justin Bieber while you’re at it.
Man, what a zinger! Good times. JOJO PICK A FUCKING DUDE ALREADY SO I CAN MOVE THE OTHERS OUT THE LOT IS LAGGY AS SHIT
Tumblr media
-I lost the dick measuring contest and my punishment is sleeping on the couch.
KILL HIM IN HIS SLEEP MELODY
-Maybe later, Real Housewives of Pleasantview is on, Cassandra is getting dragged for the pigtails!!
Tumblr media
-Ha, look at this Vivaldi-listening losér! Point at him and laugh, everyone!
Tumblr media
-Who’s laughing now, bitch? Not you with that hoof right in your French-whore mouth!
-Ugh, aren’t you late for the beans-on-toast feast, you limey piece of merde?
Not since the 100 Years War have French-British tensions ran this high. Of course that one was for a throne, while this one..
Tumblr media
-Is for something far more important.. Our heart.
LMAO Jojo please be serious, you don’t have a heart.
-We absolutely do and it’s made out of pure gold.
Yea I guess, I mean gold is a metal after all! 
Tumblr media
-Do you really think you should be eating decaying Chinese food, mon cheri? You’re going to need a soda to digest it and you know it’s too cold for your teeth!
Tumblr media
-Wyatt, I don’t pay you to think, I pay you to sit across from me and look pretty, and occasionally to scooch down next to me so I look taller.
-You actually don’t pay me at all.
-Yes and obviously I’m getting my money’s worth.
Wow Jojo tone it down, your gold heart is shinning so brightly I’m gonna go blind!
Tumblr media
Precious Gunther has added three new addictions to his existing sex one! A) working out in this atrocious outfit.
Tumblr media
B) blowing bubbles from dawn to dusk.
Tumblr media
and c) and the most disturbing one, constantly being alone in enclosed spaces with his brother’s intended, Brit Brit. At first I wasn’t too worried about it, thinking Brit is a popularity sim so it’s only natural..but then..
Tumblr media
I SEE THIS. GODDAMMIT GUNTHER WHY MUST YOU HAVE CHEMISTRY WITH EVERYONE
-Man idk, it’s almost supernatural. Blame it on God ;)
UGH I don’t even know who I hate more, your whore ass-
Tumblr media
-or this fucking llama that hasn’t gone home in 3 days and is eating all our pizza. 
-I just feel so accepted here, like I’m part of the family, you know? 
GET OUT
Tumblr media
Speaking of furries, not even the cow will approach the fucking cowplant, jfc. I mean you’d expect some kind of kinship there but nop. Great job Jojo, you killed a dozen secret society members for a defective cowplant.
-Mooo :(
I don’t know which one of you did that but stfu, I can’t anymore with this flop ass household!!!1
Tumblr media
ANYWAY back to Brit and Daniel, it seems like my Gunther concerns were baseless, since these two remain eternally into each other, always autonomously doing cute crap.
-Oh Daniel, let me serenade you with the song of your people!  
The kings made us drunk with fumes, peace among us, war to the tyrants! Let the armies go on strike, stocks in the air, and break ranks. If they insist, these cannibals on making heroes of us, they will know soon that our bullets are for our own generals  ♪
ROMANCE ISN’T DEAD
Tumblr media
In other news, allow me to present you all with Melody’s personality panel. I was under the false impression that being the child of Wanda and Stephen she was.. nice?? But nop, total Union freak material! We hit the jackpot once again. Now her best friendship with bitch Brit makes total sense.
Tumblr media
-Honestly girl, this janky ass house is such a step down from the sorority, I spend half the day thinking of ways to peace out.
Tumblr media
-Ugh I know, I was on the fence at first but can you really put a price on good d?
-Aw, what are my beautiful hens cackling about? May I join?
-No.
Tumblr media
-I was about to make a math joke but I doubt you gals would get it, amirite? As Barbie said, math is hard!
- I’m a literal math major.
-Oh I know, Mel, good for you! Affirmative action works wonders!
KILL HIM AND HIS HAREM WE DON’T NEED THE LAG
Tumblr media
It’s another day in paradise. Daniel has finally cracked and gone full Komei, autonomously cleaning shit even though we have a maid..
Tumblr media
Melody ate a ton of burnt grilled cheese and is non-stop throwing up..
Tumblr media
AND THIS BULLSHIT IS STILL GOING ON. STOP IN THE NAME OF LOVE
-What?? We’re just talking, GAWD
No you’re not “””just talking””” you’re gossiping and doing sexy whispers, I KNOW YOUR TRICKS GUNTHER-
-I don’t mean to interrupt but I think you’re focusing on the wrong issue here?
OH AM I?? DO TELL
-LOOK OUTSIDE BITCH
Nice try whores, nothing is happening outside-
Tumblr media
UUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMM WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK. WHAT. 
Tumblr media
-That’s right, Ti-Ning and I are in love now!
............................FRAN THIS BETTER BE SOME DRY ASS BRITISH HUMOR 
-Nop! We got tired of waiting for Jojo and we decided the best way to handle it was to suddenly make out in front of him even tho we have never even flirted before!
THIS LITERALLY CANNOT BE HAPPENING
-Well it is, so best accept it and we can all move on :)
Oh yea certainly, I mean if anything Jojo is known for his ability to forgive and forget!
Tumblr media
See the ghost of Ti-Ning indeed! Finally a wish Jojo and I share. 
Tumblr media
TI-NING OMFG THIS LACK OF SHAME
-Haha!!! Finally I’m free to be as gross as I want >:) 
Well.. enjoy it while it lasts.
-The hell does that mean??
Nothing, just you know, none of us know when our time will come.. only that it will. The curse of human existence, one might say. Only we among the animal world know that we will die. Memento mori, Ti-Ning. And we will memento you. 
-..Yea, maybe it’s time I move out?
I mean, you can try..
Tumblr media
..but like the curse from It Follows, it follows. It being Jojo. How you holding up boo?
-Oh, I’m great, can’t you tell?
You know what might help? Some of your beloved homework! Do something useful, get your mind off this stuff..
Tumblr media
“Sending The First Human to Mercury and Leaving Him There: A Very Specific Space Exploration Proposal” 
Tumblr media
-Jojό!! I’m writing about how I finally won your heart but please don’t look, I’m gonna read this at our wedding!
-Yea I literally couldn’t care less about you and your thoughts/feelings/etc, what was left of my heart is dead and gone and now there’s only a black hole there.. Oh we could also send Ti-Ning to a black hole if Mercury doesn’t work. Nice.
Tumblr media
-UGH how are you even still alive and breathing the same air as me and not dead from shame like you should be, you vile adulteress???
Tumblr media
-OH PLEASE you’re just mad cause Fran and I realized we can do better than your mega-jaw ass. If not for the endless supply of bubbles around here blurring our vision this would have happened weeks ago!
Tumblr media
-I’m going to strangle you in your sleep and my jaw will be the last thing you see.
-Your jaw would be the last thing I saw even if I died on the moon.
-MAYBE YOU WILL
Tumblr media
.....................well I guess it’s official then. And if the above didn’t seal it..
Tumblr media
..this definitely did. God have mercy on me, what a shitshow.
Tumblr media
While Tin and Fran are woohooing, Jojo attempts to end his troubles once and for all by running out of the house and into a thunder fire. Thankfully the rain puts it out quickly and all we’re left with is critically low hygiene. 
Tumblr media
Man, serving Penguin teas! You have the entire look down, Jo. I’d tell you to audition for Gotham but that’s extremely bad career advice
-Oh god, I almost died!!!! 
Aw I know, but don’t worry you’re safe now <3
-No I mean I came so close but didn’t make it.. :(
Jojo please, if anything, live to kill Ti-Ning and Francis. You owe it to yourself.
Tumblr media
As soon as Fran and Tin are done, guess who rushes in to gossip next to the bed. ISTG YOU ASSHOLES, BREAK IT THE FUCK UP BEFORE I THROW YOU OUT THAT WINDOW
-Whatever, we’d just land on Jojo trying to set himself on fire.
-LOL oh Brit you’re so funny!
I HATE THIS HOUSE
Tumblr media
-HAD FUN, DID WE YOU SLUT
-Get him, Jojό!
Honestly Wyatt, I get being supportive but I’m really starting to worry about you, even demeaning yourself has its limits..
Tumblr media
..especially since Jojo continues to be a massive freakshow. Good lord.
-Oh Francis, don’t tell Wyatt cause you know how he gets, but your total disregard for my existence is making me see you in a whole new, hot, light..
Man, good thing Wyatt isn’t standing 3 steps away from you!
Tumblr media
Oh yes, loving this dinner. An ocean between us..
-I wouldn’t eat that third slice if I was you, Ti-Ning. Your funeral day is fast approaching, don’t you want to look nice for it? 
-Well you’ll be there so it doesn’t matter, everyone will be looking at your jaw.
Yes, what a wonderful night. Now let’s all go to bed and hopefully everyone will have calmed down a little by tomorrow!
Tumblr media
LMAO yea idk what I was thinking.
-Strangle me in my sleep? How about I strangle you in broad daylight???
Tumblr media
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but.. poor Jojo. Not only did he get his ass beat, but to literally add insult to the injury-
Tumblr media
-everyone is lusting after Gunther during his defeat. Jfc, I’d want to set myself on fire too.
Tumblr media
Oh here we go, Gunther to the rescue! 
-How dare you beat up my brother even though he attacked you first? Prepare to die!
-Whatever, I’ve been preparing for that for the last couple days!
Tumblr media
Aw, Gunther is such a good brother/giant loser depending on the outcome of this fight.
Tumblr media
VINDICATION. Bravo, Gunther, defending our non-existent family honor!
Tumblr media
Daniel, in true Daniel fashion, slept through this entire shitshow, which might be the smartest thing he’s ever done.
Tumblr media
Oop, spoke too soon. Say what you want about Gunther and Daniel but man do they both love Jojo! Truly god knows why.
Tumblr media
-So Brit, you’re studying poli-sci, can you think of a peaceful resolution to this? Haha!
Tumblr media
-YOU STFU TI-NING MY FINALS ARE TODAY MY GPA IS ALREADY IN THE TOILET AND NOW IM GONNA FLOP CAUSE YOU ASSHOLES SPENT THE WHOLE NIGHT FUCKING AND THE WHOLE DAY FIGHTING AND I HAVEN’T SLEPT AT ALL DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL I’M GONNA BURN THIS PLACE TO THE FUCKING GROUND IF YOU TRY ME
Tumblr media
Well, you might not need to Brit! WHAT IS UP WITH THIS HYPER-FLAMMABLE CACTUS
Tumblr media
Brit returns from her finals with a free pizza! How’d you do, Brit?
-Saved by the nightie again!
NOICE. Got a freebie pizza from it too?
-No, I found it in the garbage. My gift to Francis and Ti-Ning for their 3 day anniversary! 
Tumblr media
Jojo’s official greek house portrait coming along nicely! Wow he looks very majestic..
Tumblr media
..Instagram vs Real Life.
-Bowling is so satisfying if you pretend the pins are your former lovers’ genitals!
Whatever coping method works for you boo!
Tumblr media
Gunther and Ti-Ning are officially enemies which is hilarious because not even Jojo is enemies with him?? Follow your bliss, Guns!
Tumblr media
In an impressive display of brotherly synchronicity we have double slapping across the room. Double the slapping for half the time, Jojo is as always a true capitalist.
Tumblr media
JOJO!! I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU WON! So proud of my baby <3 I’m ofc kidding, this shit has gotten old really fast and I extremely feel Brit watching uninterested. ENOUGH  
Tumblr media
HARD MOOD. Brit is honestly on another level than the rest of us basics. What an icon.
Tumblr media
For some reason I bothered to fulfill Ti-Ning’s want to learn that relationship maintenance or w/e lifetime skill (talk about money down the drain) and the irony of this pop up text almost sent me to an early grave. And we know who’s going to an early grave today..
Tumblr media
IT’S CAKE TIME. REACH OUT, TI-NING. YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT
Tumblr media
FINALLY. GOODBYE FIGHTING AND INSANE LAG
Tumblr media
JESUS JOJO. STONE. COLD.
Ice Cube would like to say, that I'm a crazy muthafucka from around the way, since I was a youth, I smoked weed out, now I'm the muthafucka that ya read about, takin' a life or two, that's what the hell I do, you don't like how I'm livin well fuck you ♪
Tumblr media
Wyatt and Brit were on their way to react to Ti-Ning’s little accident but somehow got sidetracked and are now randomly arguing on the porch. Honestly I don’t even know what’s going on anymore, I’ve lost all control of this household.
Tumblr media
Jojo rushes over to celebrate Ti-Ning’s demise by immediately slapping the shit out of his grieving lover! Whenever you think we can’t possibly sink any lower, think again. Like right now, after the slapping, are you thinking we can’t sink any lower?????????????????????????????
Tumblr media
THINK. AGAIN.
Tumblr media
ARE YOU SCREAMING? CAUSE I DID
Tumblr media
YUP THIS IS HAPPENING
Tumblr media
IT’S REAL
Tumblr media
IT’S. REAL. THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH CURSE WORDS IN ANY LANGUAGE TO EXPRESS MY FEELINGS
Tumblr media
FUCK YOU FRANCIS. FUCK. YOU. YOU’RE GETTING MURDERED SO FUCKING HARD YOU UNBELIEVABLE ASSHOLE. I’M FUCKING DONE. JOJO YOU’RE GONNA DIE ALONE TIME FOR ALL OF US TO ACCEPT THAT REALITY. WE STARTED OUT WITH 3 CANDIDATES AND ENDED UP HERE. HOW THE EVERLOVING FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN FRANCIS AND WYATT HAVE. 1 BOLT. ONE. WYATT IS A FAMILY SIM I’M SO PISSED OFF I NEED TO TAKE A MOMENT
OK. In my 10 years of playing I have never wanted to quit without saving more than with this bullshit. Look at fucking Fran’s smug ass face and moron Wyatt putting on an Oscar worthy performance of shock and regret. YOU SHOULD HAVE SAID NO, YOU SHOULD HAVE GONE HOME WYATT. What the FUCK are we gonna do now???? I guess good thing Max Flexor survived the cage of death. GOD.DAMMIT
