“Now I just want you to watch.”
El saw what Henry did to everyone in the lab. She didn’t die, but she had to watch it happen.
Max saw Billy die in front of her. She wasn’t the one in danger, but El was. And she watched her abusive stepbrother die in front of her.
Dustin saw Eddie die. He didn’t go back towards the bats. The bats didn’t hurt him. But he watched Eddie die in his arms.
Hopper didn’t die because of his exposure to the chemicals he was mixing. He watched his daughter die in a hospital bed.
Lucas wasn’t being targeted by Vecna. He wasn’t the one floating in the air, his bones weren’t snapping. But Max’s were. And he watched it happen.
Nancy wasn’t the one who died in the Upside Down, alone in Steve Harrington’s pool. That was her best friend, and Nancy had to watch it all go down. Had to see everyone unfold.
Mike didn’t get possessed. Or kidnapped. Or burst into particles. Mike didn’t die. Or almost die. He watched Will screaming like he was being burned alive. He watched his best friend nearly die and he watched as every adult around him was unable to help him. He watched Will bike away from his house before he disappeared. He heard his mom talking to Joyce the next day. He heard Will on the radio. He saw Will’s body in the water. He heard Bob die. He saw El die. He saw Will dead. He watched a man get shot trying to protect him, Will and Jonathan. He watched him die while putting pressure on the wound.
Mike was shot at.
He was told that he was wrong for trusting El. That Will wasn’t alive.
He had to run for his life because his friend’s body was taken by a being from another dimension that sent creatures to kill him and everyone around him.
He was knocked out by Max’s possessed brother.
He was shot at again in the desert, trying to rescue El who was taken by the government.
He’s been bullied his entire life.
And he did almost die.
Mike jumped off a cliff.
Dustin and El had to watch.

Hi, I always see fanfics where Clarisse protects the reader, but what about a fanfic where the reader protects her?
👀
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media

An Pt 2 - Tell me Why i just realized Dior is 18 and is turning 19 this year
An Pt 3 - the Pt 2 is Miss Information i got confused I’m sorry 😭😭
Tumblr media
Cheering loudly you jumped happily as you watched your girlfriend clarisse in the chariot race . She was dominating the field per usual, bringing you a sense of happiness.
As the chariots crossed the corner the winner was shown as percy and annabeth. Rolling your eyes at the circumstances you didn’t hesitate to run towards the daughter of ares.
Sneaking up and around the chariots that pulled into the clearing you snuck up to the taller girl. Watching for a moment as she yelled at her siblings you took the opportunity to jump behind clarisse covering her eyes. “Guess who”
Peeling your fingers off her face she turned around, looking you up and down with a critical look. She rolled her eyes before kissing your forehead. “I can’t stand you sometimes” she sighed while picking a piece of pollen off of your hair.
“That’s really how Your Gonna Greet your girlfriend?”
“Yes.”
“Ok clarisse” you joked rolling your eyes in response. Stepping up, creasing your shoes you placed a quick kiss on her lips. “Take care of the chariot ok? I need your sister for something” you politely asked the ares kids, stealing clarisse before they would retaliate.
——
“Where are You taking me” Clarisse complained while You dragged her deeper into the mountains.
“Can You Just be quiet and trust me” looking over your shoulder you raised an eyebrow, testing her patience.
After about five minutes of walking you eventually brought her to a clearing, it was ok the edge of one of the many cliffs at camp but gave a good view of not only the beautiful scenery bellow but also of the camp itself.
Leaning into clarisse you wrapped a lazy arm around her while resting your head on her. “Pretty huh”
She just shrugged her shoulders. “It’s all right” You softly hit her in the side. “It’s not all right It’s beautiful you jerk”
“No.. no I’ve seen prettier” she chuckled.
“Oh yeah? Name three things”
“Ok” Clarisse shifted around some. “Uh for starters the sunset, then my spear and lastly I guess you can count” she laughed as you hit her one more time. “I hate you so much”
“I love you to” she chuckled kissing you once again.
“You did great Today.. your dad would be proud you know” you comfortingly mumbled against her lips. Clarisse relaxed Some sighing once again “let’s just hope he agrees”
——
Heading towards the dining hall you happily held your girlfriends hand. Walking in the stone building you stopped making clarisse jerk slightly.
“What’s wrong” she asked with a concerned tone. Breaking from her you headed towards the Athena table.
Walking up to it you crossed your arms “do we have a problem”
They all looked around confused, some mumbling. “What are You on about?” Annabeth spoke all while giving you an equally dirty look.
“There’s nothing wrong with bragging about winning but the second any of you have the audacity to first of all say, clarisse didn’t deserve her quest this year or that she was just an extra burden which may I add you— annabeth crashed her quest, only to then also say that she deserved not winning just shows the fucking arrogance of you all” placing your hands on your hips you eyed the entire now silent table with some of the other kids in the dining hall following suit in being quiet. “Keep my girlfriends name out of your pathetic mouths and we won’t have a problem.. understand”
Walking back to clarisse you took her hand into yours once again, kissing her cheek you started to walk towards the ares cabin table with her. “Have I ever told you how hot you are when you act like a bitch”
“Eh you’ve mentioned it once or twice” giving her one more kiss, pecking her lips a few Times you started to chuckle as her siblings complained.
It didn’t matter what anyone said about clarisse. You would Defend her til the day you die.

dave mustaine x nore burton (oc) | word count: 1514
✦ on this fic: NSFW!!!, dave mustaine x female!oc, oc is cliff burton's cousin, +18, language, romance, mxf sex, period sex (in the shower), unprotected sex, blood mention, period pains
✦ a/n: this is just Dave showering Nore with affection because I missed writing about these two in a happier setting. From my Heartbreaker fanfic. This is set somewhere between parts 16 and 17. Hope you enjoy the read ❤
I could tell right off the bat that something wasn't right when I cracked open my eyes.
For starters, it was way too dark for morning. A dull, gray light sneaked through the curtains, barely lighting up the room. Just enough for me to make out the shape of the living room door. I rolled over with a groan, and that's when it hit me: a stabbing pain in my gut, and a warm, sticky feeling between my legs.
"Oh, crap," I moaned, burying my face in the pillow as a sharp pain shot from my gut down to my legs, making me curl up tighter. As much as I wanted to cocoon myself in blankets, I knew I had to get up if I wanted any relief. With a heavy sigh, I dragged myself out of bed, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes and trudging to the bathroom.
Flicking on the light, I shut the door behind me, letting out a frustrated groan when I spotted the bloodstain seeping through my underwear. I plopped down on the toilet, wincing as another wave of pain hit me. I knew a hot shower and some meds would help, but right now, I could barely move, my eyes drooping with exhaustion as the pain pulsed through me.
I jumped when I heard a knock on the door.
"Nore? You alright?" Dave's voice floated through, followed by a big yawn.
"I'm good," I mumbled, but my voice sounded weaker than I'd hoped. "Sorry for waking you."
"You sure you're okay?" His concern was palpable, snapping him awake instantly.
"Yeah, it's just... Ow," I winced as another contraction hit hard. That seemed to do it for Dave; he swung the door open and barged in, eyes wide as he scanned the bathroom. I flushed with embarrassment. "Dave!"
"Oh," he whispered, catching on as he saw me doubled over in pain on the toilet, my clothes in a messy heap on the floor, stained with blood. "I'm sorry, babe. You sounded like you were really hurting."
"I am hurting. But you didn't have to bust in here," I muttered, my face still red hot in embarrassment. He let out a soft chuckle.
"Have you taken anything for it? Want me to grab you some clean PJs? And socks, to warm your feet. You said that helps with cramps, right?" he asked, instantly slipping into caretaker mode, which made me smile.
"I'd rather you let me clean up and hit the shower first. But yeah, fresh PJs and painkillers would be great."
"Got it. I'll be quick. Don't move," he instructed, ducking out of the bathroom and shutting the door behind him. I let out a soft chuckle. Like I could go anywhere in this state. With a sigh, I got myself up, flushed the toilet, and stepped into the shower.
I leaned back, soaking up the steamy water as it washed over me, easing some of the pain pulsing from my belly. A shower, some meds, fresh clothes, and back to bed, preferably snuggled up with my boyfriend. Seemed like the perfect game plan for that early morning.
I cracked an eye open when I heard Dave tiptoeing back in.
"Brought you clean PJs, pain pills, and your towel," he announced, poking his head into the shower. I smiled softly, thankfully. "Want me to hop in?" he offered.
"What, you wanna join me?" I raised an eyebrow, and he shot back a cheeky grin. Without a word, he stripped down, and I couldn't help but giggle as he pulled me close, peppering my face with kisses – on my lips, my cheeks, my forehead.
"You know what I heard? Orgasms supposedly help with cramps," he whispered in my ear, and I could feel my cheeks heating up.
"Dave, I'm..." I started, but my words trailed off into a sigh as his fingers found their way to my clit. "D-Dave, I'm bleeding, we're gonna make a mess..."
"It's all good if we’re in the shower, right?" he countered, his voice low and husky, his breath warm against my neck. I let out a soft moan as he began to circle my clit, his other hand holding onto my lower back, pulling me closer as I tangled my fingers in his hair. His lips pressed against the sensitive skin of my neck, a slow and deliberate kiss that sent shivers down my spine. "Let me take care of you, babe…”
"Dave..." I breathed out, not in protest this time, but in pure pleasure as I surrendered to the warmth of his touch. The heat from the water and his body was soothing, mingling with the tension building in my abdomen as he traced slow circles around my clit. A moan escaped me as I felt a slow contraction, but this time it wasn't from pain; my breath hitched as his lips descended to my breasts, taking one of my nipples between his lips, teasing me with his slow movements. I let out a surprised gasp as he lifted one of my legs, pulling me closer as he entered me slowly. "Dave, I'm… I’m too sensitive today..."
"I'll take it slow," he whispered, and I let out a low moan as he drew me in closer, fully inside me, filling me up in a way that made me clench around him. He groaned softly, his lips meeting mine as he started to move with a gentle rhythm, his tongue exploring my mouth lazily. I wrapped my arms around his neck, letting out soft moans. "I just wanna make you feel good," he murmured against my lips, and I gasped as he pushed back in slowly. "Wanna make you cum for me."
"Oh, Dave..." I moaned, nuzzling into his neck. He grunted, holding me against the wall and lifting my other leg, wrapping it around his hip, pulling me closer, pushing deeper into me. I gripped his back, the pain ebbing away as pleasure took over, coiling tighter and tighter in my belly, my body begging for more. "Dave, please..."
"Hmm?" he murmured, a smirk playing on his lips as he started to move again, drawing out another soft moan from me. "What do you need?"
"Please... Oh, harder..." I begged, and he chuckled softly, a hint of breathlessness in his voice.
"Are you sure it won't make the pain worse?" he husked, his voice thick with desire, and I nodded. "If it's too much, you gotta tell me, okay?"
"Okay... Oh, fuck!" I gasped as he pushed harder, picking up the pace, sending waves of pleasure coursing through me. He chuckled softly, letting out a groan as he held me close. "Dave, I'm... I'm almost there..."
"I feel it. You're so tight..." he groaned, clutching me tighter, his words igniting small sparks inside my belly. "Fuck, Nore, you're perfect, you’re so wet, oh, shit..." I could tell he was close too, his movements growing more urgent as incoherent praises left his lips.
I moaned as he reached down to touch my clit, sending shivers down my spine. He grunted, intensifying his thrusts, and I held onto him, my eyes shut tight as pleasure surged through me. Dave squeezed me close as my climax hit, and he groaned as he reached his own peak.
Breathing heavily, I leaned against him as he set me down, blushing at the sight of the mess between us, a mix of blood and fluids.
"Oh, no," I muttered, cheeks burning. "Dave, I’m sorry..."
"Sorry? You just made me cum and now you're saying sorry?" he replied, sounding amused, and I chuckled, shaking my head.
"I meant for the mess," I clarified, and Dave laughed.
"Babe, we make messes every time we fuck, period or not. It's just blood. C'mere, I'll help you clean up."
After our shower, I got dressed, grateful for the fresh clothes, and popped one of the painkillers Dave brought, even though the cramps had eased a lot. Turns out, orgasms really did work wonders for period pains.
Snuggling under the blanket, I sighed happily as we lay down. Dave pulled me close, and I nestled my head on his chest.
"Feeling any better?" he whispered, running his fingers through my hair.
"Yeah, I am. Thanks, Dave," I mumbled, yawning. The room was getting brighter with the sunlight, but it was still too early to think about anything other than getting some more sleep in our comfy bed. Dave planted a soft kiss on my forehead.
"When we wake up, I'll whip up some hot chocolate for you. How's that sound?" he offered, and I let out a soft chuckle.
"You're spoiling me," I murmured, and he laughed.
"Of course I am. You're my everything," he replied, and I smiled, feeling sleep pulling me under. He held me close, his breath warm against my neck. "Love you, Nore."
"Hmm... Love you too," I whispered, feeling myself drift off.
I sighed happily, letting Dave's arms wrap around me as I surrendered to sleep, feeling safe and warm, knowing that happiness was right there: with him.

hello I’d like to request venti with s/o who has angel wings like his pls
Venti with reader that has wings headcanons:
Tumblr media
Warnings: possessiveness, talk of mild manipulation, vaguely suggestive in some parts
-
• For starters, Venti would be so beyond happy, I really can't describe to what extent
• He now has something in common with you that none of the other Archons have
• Would definitely emphasize this by either incorporating his wings into his everyday outfit (assuming he's not trying to hide his status), or simply choosing to be in his Archon outfit more often
• Now you match, and, in his own mind, that emphasizes that you're inherently closer with him
• He really can't help how proud of himself he is for that spur of the moment design choice all those years ago
• The people of Mondstadt now believe that their Archon was 'made' in your image, the sense of superiority is going through the roof—
• It only makes sense that you would bless your favorite nation/element/Archon/etc. to resemble yourself in some way
• Do you have a closer relationship with the Anemo Archon than previously thought? Were you two something more than just divine creator and blessed worshiper?
• (Venti might have the opportunity to spin this in a way that he was given his Archon form by you specifically to be your lover, it's not like you would know the difference without your memories—)
• He shows off his wings a lot around you in various ways, like stretching them out to their fullest extent to emphasize how pretty and big and well-kept they are, always trying to catch your eye
• Will absolutely get a very dreamy expression if he notices you admiring them, he'll admire yours in return (as if he doesn't already admire everything about you constantly)
• He wants so desperately to just touch and preen and run his hands over your feathers, to see exactly how sensitive your wings are
• But Venti knows that's a rather intimate act, and he's not going to push your boundaries that far unless you make it explicitly clear that you're ok with it
• The exception is, of course, if your relationship has evolved past simply creator and acolyte onto something more akin to lovers
• Then it's only natural that he should help you with things like that, as natural as picking up house work and cooking and showering you with attention constantly
• He is sooo overwhelming sweet while doing it too
• Going on and on and on about how honored he is, how beautiful they are, how much he loves you
• Venti is absolutely keeping any feathers of yours he happens to find in a safe hidden place, because no one else deserves to have them
• May even braid one or two of them into his hair so he'll always have a piece of you close
• He would also be more than happy to give you some of his own, thrilled even
• If you look closely, you'll see that this might translate over to his version of a promise ring—
• You must be bound to each other now, right? Constantly carrying a piece of each other and all-
• Oh, and he takes the lead on accommodating furniture since he knows the struggles of sitting in regular chairs with big wings
• Venti wants to fall asleep with your wings wrapped around him so badly, it's on his bucket list
• Another thing on that is jumping off Starsnatch Cliff hand in hand and just gliding together
• Anyway, he gets irritable when he sees someone else touching your wings, especially without your explicit permission
• He will intervene by physically pulling you into him, a daring smile sent in the other person's direction, asking them to try it again
• If it is completely consensual, then he'll just be sulking in the corner
• After, you'll have to deal with him practically on top of you, complaining excessively about how you're just too nice and you shouldn't give into people's requests like that, especially when they don't fully understand what they are requesting
• You're the only person allowed to touch his wings, because that means he's bound to you
• While he can't actually dictate what you do, he kind of wishes you would allow him exclusive access to touching your wings in return
• They're a display of power sure, but they are also a display of vulnerability, because they're a rather big and fatal target if struck the right way
• So letting someone close enough to touch them is both very intimate and a display of something above a platonic relationship, but people without wings wouldn't really know that
• And if someone disrespects you by some rude offhanded comment about your wings, it's on sight—

this one means forever
written for @steddiemicrofic ‘edge’ wc: 509| rated: T | cw: Suicide Attempt, Suicidal Thoughts | tags: childhood friends, post-canon, implied vampire!Eddie
Steve looked down at Lover’s Lake, heels digging into the gravel that held him from falling to his death. He stared at it, the moonlight reflecting off of the still water, like if he reached out he could scoop up a little piece of the stars and hold them in his hands. 
He thought back to years and years prior, to the day he made the death pact. To the day he met Eddie Munson. 
He had been 13, walking toward what he knew to be the direction of Skull Rock, barefoot after one of his parent’s fights. It was there that he ran into the other boy, who offered him a joint and a kind smile.
After a bit of talking, Steve confessed something he had never dared to mutter aloud before; the fact that he didn’t want to be alive. He broke into tears and Eddie consoled him, promising him it wasn’t worth it, that he shouldn’t go through with it.
“Why?” Steve had asked, staring into Eddie’s brown eyes, wide and comforting. “Why shouldn’t I?”
“Well,” Eddie replied, “for starters, we wouldn’t ever see each other again.” He smiled, throwing down his joint and grabbing Steve’s hands. “You’re like, the first person to be nice to me in a while. And I get what you’re feeling, ‘ya know? So how about this? If one of us decides we wanna die, the other one dies with them.”
Steve blinked at him, tears falling onto his pajama pants. “Why would we do that?”
“If neither of us have anything to live for,” Eddie said slowly, “why don’t we just live for each other?”
Now, Eddie was dead and gone. And for some odd reason, Steve found himself remembering that encounter that he should have forgotten about the moment he shut the other man out of  his life. But he hadn’t. Hadn’t forgotten, hadn’t given up on his oath.
He didn’t have anything to live for. Not anymore. 
Pulling himself away from the memory, Steve looked down at the water once again. He knew the moment he jumped, it would be done for. The impact of him hitting the water would break every bone in his body, and if it didn’t kill him, the freezing temperature of the lake would. There was no coming out of this alive. 
It was perfect.
Steve took a long, deep breath, the cold air around him filling his lungs. He placed his hand on his chest, running his fingers over the necklace that he hadn’t taken off since Eddie’s death in the Upside Down. It was a guitar pick, the one Eddie had used to distract the demobats. His last reminder of the man he had lost before he was even his. His last ounce of hope. 
His foot edged forward, toe of his shoe hanging over the cliff.  “Just do it,” he muttered to himself. “Just end it all.”
He leaned forward… and just as he did, someone caught him by the collar. “Steve,” they said, pulling him back.
Steve froze. “Eddie?”

Clay and Alder are like Brokeback Mountain old man yuri to me
I ramble about them under the cut
This is almost directly pasted from discord:
Guy who has a very strong crush that could not possibly be requited in his mind. Guy who has probably had some internalized toxic masculinity for a very long time and can't properly deal wifh big emotions like Being In Love With The Champion
With Clay being an immigrant pursuing the ""American Dream"" I imagine he had to repress a lot of feelings in order to succeed in life. We don't know anything about his family, if he has one. So i can see him being very lonely and covering it with his "tough as grits" mindset. I feel like most of his relationships are kept business-only so to not let anyone in too close. No room for love when you have a business to run 🇺🇸🦅‼️‼️ I just think he has a lot of loss and loneliness in him...... JUST LIKE ALDER‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ Although Alder is much more in tune with his feelings and generally more casual and relaxed about things. Nevertheless hs is Champion "has a grandson but no mentioned partner or children to have had Benga" Alder. Champion "His beloved starter pokemon died of illness and was so devastated he couldn't fulfill his job as champion for who knows how long" Alder. They have things in common I think .
Sad stuff aside I just think this is a great pairing like. Guys who go fishing together. Guys who would really enjoy a nice pile of dirt. They eat breakfast at waffle house. Clay gives Alder cool rocks and Alder shows Clay his special Jumping Off Cliffs trick and promptly gives him a heart attack. Literal untapped potential

On April 20, 1912 – The Boston Red Sox played the first game in the history of Fenway Park after three previous attempts to play the opener had been rained out. Over 27,000 fans attended the opening, and the Red Sox had “The Million Dollar” outfield of Duffy Lewis, Tris Speaker, and Harry Hooper. In 1912, there was not a “Green Monster” (that came in 1934). Fenway had what was known as Duffy’s Cliff. A mound in leftfield, and fans were able to get right on top of the game. The fans knew way back in 1912, they were the best seats in the house, it only took ownership 90 years to figure that out.New York jumped to a quick 3-0 lead of Red Sox starter Buck O’Brien. The Red Sox and the ‘‘Royal Rooters,’’ led by Roxbury saloon keeper Michael ‘‘Nuf Ced’’ McGreevy, who had been in full cry for years backed by a brass band and bellowing their theme song ‘‘Tessie.’’ They were dressed suitably, of course, in hats and high collars. We’re not going to give in to a rough start. The Red Sox tied the game in the 6th, 5-5, and both teams scored a run in 8th. Tris Speaker will end the game in the bottom of the 11th with a walk-off hit leading Boston to a 7-6 victory to christen the new park.

Important question since you've said you like pokemon. Are you getting the new games and are you picking the crocodile starter?
Yep, I got Scarlet. And of course I picked the crocodile! I don't want to spoil it since the games are so new and I know people don't come to this blog for Pokémon spoilers, but I love the final evolution. Really satisfies my primal urge to run around with a crocodile that loves me.
I'm really enjoying Scarlet, too, it's the most fun I've had with a new Pokémon game since like XY and I think it's loads better than Sword/Shield. There are some performance issues but I haven't run into anything major and the game as a whole is, like, insanely fun. I named my Grafaiai Da Vinky and I finally have a pokemon game where I can ride around on a giant lizard and jump off cliffs. Livin' the dream over here.
Of course, no new snake Pokémon (boo!), but I love this dinky little guy so much I'll overlook it.

" While you two nincompoops are over collecting the scraps of your brain cells, I already know the objective. "

" Ah, my favorite music from the menu. It's like I'm in a retirement home. "
" Did he just rip his fucking head off? "
" And what not to do! Like rip somebody's head off. "
" Just the casual things! I can reach items on the top shelf, airbend some electric waves, and land in prison for a double homicide. "
" Now you can only commit singular homicide. "

" The hell do you mean I can't misuse company time? I get paid three cents to move around boxes, I'll do whatever the hell I want. "
" Well, it looks like I'll take over for the time being! "
" I could say a lot right now, but I'll keep my mouth shut. "
" Welp, I see no problem moving forward here. Clearly no present danger that is alarming us to what's ahead. "
" I think Hell would be a better place to go than through that door. "

" And with that note, I think it's about time we high-tail it out of here. "

*Solar was on the beach, close enough to the water that it was barely touching their robotic body, they were watching over their kids who were playing in the sand by Solar. It was the day after Player's birthday*
//lil rp starter. Angst-
Player was in the forest, near the cliff she used to go whenever she felt bad. Soleil was with her, having to keep her from jumping off if she ever felt like it. Player was in her CM form, trembling badly.
// @sun-and-moon-sb ANGST HELL YE

thoughts on touken ranbu kai so far
i've finished the four current episodes so far, and for the most part, i've enjoyed it! i'm happy to have a new anime, especially since i can't find hanamaru season three anywhere (much less with eng subs). but i still have some issues with kai, some that i hope will be addressed later on.
first off, the things i like!
the gorgeous animation! i haven't taken a lot of screenshots, but everything looks so beautiful! the first scene that comes to mind would be the opening in episode three where mikazuki and the starters watch the sunrise over the water. it's so pretty!
i love the kunihiro brothers!! i'm so glad they're all getting screen time together! the flashback to when yamabushi got injured, and after doudanuki's speech, manba wanted to get revenge on the enemies specifically for hurting his brother? I SCREAMED!!!
sidenote, this focus on the brothers ends up separating horikawa and kane-san, who instead is with yasusada most of the time. i love the hijikatagumi, but it is welcome to see them apart, to potentially introduce new character dynamics
speaking of! manba's conflict - not feeling worthy of being the attendant due to that flashback battle - is new! it's less related to him being a copy, and more of his guilt and trauma. i'm excited to see how this plays out!
the battle royale in episode four is so much fun!! the teams were interesting and i loved how they used the environment, even if it felt too... battle shounen at times imo (hachisuka and kasen fighting on the log and mutsu and kasen jumping off a cliff). always happy to hear yasusada's ora ora ora
THE SANIWA! some people online found the doll and voice creepy, and i did as well, but i fuck with it
but as for the things i dislike...
the touken ranbu animes are... incredibly repetitive. the "newest toudan still has attachments for his old master to the point where it's causing problems in the citadel" plot was in s1 hanamaru and katsugeki. the only difference in kai is that it's more personal with more fighting. what's worse is that this exact conflict has been done in s2 hanamaru (albeit less focus on souza), so kai just feels dragged out with a dash of souza ptsd and more yagen. and judging by the opening, it'll be the conflict for the entire anime...
honestly, this whole thing feels like hanamaru but more serious and prettier with the way characters have to go through the same conflicts. sayo still talks about revenge, souza is a caged bird; in fact, i'm pretty sure yamabushi and manba's dialogue in the first ep happened in hanamaru as well. i know that's a game interaction but seriously? make something new! there's dozens of new characters and we're still using the same guys? boring
i hope episode 5 has nice fight choreography at least. but still, i'm gonna keep my hopes up for the rest of the season. enjoy these screenshots of moon grandpa ft manba

How about waterfall, dealer's choice?
"Have you ever considered," Jimmy started, his voice cracking despite his best efforts, "a waterfall?"
Scott blinks at him. "No, Jim. That would be silly."
"Wh--" Jimmy sputters, gesturing to the edge of the cliff. "In what way?"
"Well, for starters, no one can climb back up a diving board."
Which is a fair point, Jimmy knows. Judging by Scott's tone, he knows it, too. He raises an eyebrow at Jimmy and gestures for him to get a move on, to head for the edge of the plank that marks the exit to their base.
"Go on, get a move on," he insists. "No room for red names up here, I'm afraid."
Jimmy whines in the back of his throat. "You've trapped this somehow. I know you have. I'm going to fall to my death."
"We literally use it all the time, though. You just saw Gem jump off not five minutes ago, you donut."
He had. That is, in part, why Jimmy doesn't necessarily want to go leaping off the side of the cliffs that Gem and the Scotts had built their little cottages onto. Gem is in the water down below, and Gem is terrifying, and he's fine exactly where he is, thanks so much.
"It's not safe, man. I could hit the cliff by accident, and then I'd be a red name, and I'm no good to you like that," Jimmy presses.
He makes the mistake of turning, though, to look at the water below. Jimmy expects to see the bright orange of Gem's hair bobbing against the blue, but he can't find her. He searches the depths in vain, up until--
"Off you go!" Scott says, as a hand pushes him over the edge of the diving board and toward the water below.
Jimmy screams as he falls. Of course he does. And, as much a given as anything else, he can hear Scott's laughter ringing out from above him as he goes.

Hopes and Dreams ; Dreams and Omens
@travelers-of-the-multiverse Liked for a Starter!
Galacta Knight had seen a lot of things. For a species that lived as long as his did, it was basically a requirement.
The things he had seen in his years of living, both the good and the bad, liked to manifest in his dreams. Some sights more than others, for some reason.
These recurring themes and images happened enough that Galacta knew one when he saw it. This time, the dream was of a vivid image of an old victory of his. He stood atop a hill, overlooking a bloody battle below. The battlefield was a plane of burnt ash tinged with scorching lava, and overlooking it was an agitated volcano. It smoked and steamed with anticipation, as Galacta Knight's role was to order his men to retreat so that he, in a display of his destructive power, would command the volcano to violently erupt, wiping out his enemies and leaving them to boil in searing air and choke on hot ash.
It was one of his crowning moments. A victory that contributed to him earning the coveted title as "The Greatest Warrior in the Galaxy." A raw show of just what his magic could do. It replayed in his mind over and over again these nights, and he dutifully played it out each time.
Galacta Knight took a step forward, wings unfurled and ready to take flight off of his rocky cliff and carry him to the volcano's basin. He flexed his feathers and readied himself to play this memory over again as something new brushed up along his wingtips.
The warrior turned slightly to find a tropical vine draped over his wing like a wriggling worm. Intrigued, the rest of his body followed suit, and found himself face to face with a tunnel of vines and tropical flowers.
This was new.
The dream had deviated in a rather strange way, but the change was not an unwelcome one. The better part of Galacta Knight briefly turned away from this new temptation to focus on the original dream, the one he knew well, far too well... But an adventurous side of his heart simply could not resist. It demanded he jump in the tunnel and explore a bit.
With a lowered gaze, the warrior finally turns back around and carefully plunges himself in the tunnel. Totally unsure of what he would find in there, and unafraid of the uncertainty that lay ahead.

The pokémon team anon has returned. I read the Hound Nights demo and got creative.
Starling:
- Starly. The names match! Also, that is Starling's starter, they left the cult together.
- Rufflet. Another cult buddy that escaped with Starling. Rufflet's evolution, Braviary, has this dex entry "For the sake of its friends, this brave warrior of the sky will not stop battling, even if injured." Starling shows similar tendencies towards her family, but much like Rufflet, she still has some growing to do before fully fitting the role.
- Togekiss. A pokémon that enjoys the company of kindhearted people. Starling insists Togekiss stays around for their parents, but it is clear Togekiss really cares for her.
- Drampa. A friendly pokémon that loves children and protects them from danger? Yeah, of course a traumatized cult survivor would end up with one looking after them. MC's family probably gave it to her to help her feel safe.
- Bagon. Just a little baby that wants to fly free and is willing to jump off cliffs to reach its dream.
- Shiftry. Its body is wood, so the nose can serve as an improvised stake. It knows the move Sunny Day, which turns the wheater sunny. It can even read minds. Shiftry is Starling's anti-vampire buddy.
Marian:
- Meowscarada. Green magician cat, that's all.
- Perrserker. Bushy tail, black and grey face, cat. Knows Pay Day (a move that generates free money).
- Male Meowstic. Green-eyed cat with psychic powers. It has the Prankster ability.
- Electabuzz. A pokémon that loves storms just seems fitting. Marian has been raising this one since it was an Elekid.
- Castform. It changes type based on the weather and helps Marian with practical effects, since it can make rain, hail, and even sunshine.
- Female Basculegion. Its dex entry states that females "can afflict a target with terrifying illusions that are under its control. The deeper the sadness in its friends' souls, the paler Basculegion becomes." Marian deserves a fish filled with ghosts.
Theo:
- Mightyena. A pack hunter that values teamwork and is obedient to skilled trainers.
- Mabosstiff. A gentle dog that loves children, but that will take on an intimidating look to protect its family. Theo's Mabosstiff has the Guard Dog ability, which "Boosts the Pokémon’s Attack stat if intimidated. Moves and items that would force the Pokémon to switch out also fail to work."
- Dusknoir. A ghost that guides lost spirits home. Of course the cemetery keeper would end up with one on his team.
- Cubone. Theo saw a little orphan baby and adopted it, no wonder he was ready to take MC in.
- Gyarados. Do not forget what Theo is.
Chrétien/Florence:
- Swoobat. As always, a bat for the vampire. A friendship evolution that gives others positive mood shifts? Very fitting for a vampire who is happy to be someone's best friend... as long as they are of use.
- Skeledirge. Matching its trainer's interests, Skeledirge is both an excellent singer and capable of producing flames at a temperature of 3000 ℃, perfect for burning up a body.
- Drifloon. A pokémon that likes kidnapping children.
- Gorebyss. To quote the dex, "Although Gorebyss is the very picture of elegance and beauty while swimming, it is also cruel. When it spots prey, this Pokémon inserts its thin mouth into the prey's body and drains the prey of its body fluids."
- Vespiqueen. Uses pheromones to control those around it (and make them fight for its sake), much like a vampire does with a hound.
- Hypno. Is it a weird yellow humanoid? Yes. Is it good for getting food in a pinch since it can put people to sleep and drag them away? Also yes.
Welcome back! Glad to see my work can inspire you even more x3
Tbh I would kill for that Pokemon AU...
Also "Shiftry is Starling's anti-vampire buddy." sounds so damn cute!!
