KilluGon and the Chimera Ant Arc

idk what to title this. but it’s basically just a few interesting killugon parallels and connections i found in the CAA. (SPOILERS AHEAD!!)

“Precious.”

“You’re the only one for me!”

The Killua scene happens in chapter 219. The Palm and Knov scene happens right after, in chapter 220.

Y’all know the story. Killua fights a rabbit and proclaims Gon as his “most precious friend” . Killua thinks of all their moments together, the most emphasized one being from the dodgeball game when Gon said some gay shit to him.

“KILLUA JA NAKYA DAME NAN DA!” is the exact phrase Gon used.

It’s a romantic phrase in Japan. The English equivalent is :

Killua is the only one for me! ; it has to be Killua! ; Killua is my one and only!

READ THIS ARTICLE. IT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING ABOUT GON AND THE PHRASE HE USED.

The top panel is the next chapter when Knov caught Palm using her power without his permission. He manipulates her by saying “Your blood is precious resource.” , knowing exactly how that word would affect her. After hearing Knov say “precious” , Palm thinks to herself “Knov is the only one for me!”

clips from the anime bc i luv how they portrayed these two scenes

i wanted to address that each scene uses different wording BUT they all mean the same thing, just like how there’s multiple ways to say English words and phrases, it’s. the. same. thing. romantic phrases. preciousness. one and only.

Gon :

じゃなきゃダメなんだ (Ja nakya dame nan da) = You’re the only one for me / It has to be you

Palm :

しかいない (Shika inai) = You’re the only one for me / There is only you

Killua :

大事な (Dajina) = Precious / Important

Knov :

貴重 (Kichō) = Precious / Valuable

Anyway, the point is, Togashi’s intentions with this little connection is clear. Knov calling Palm’s blood “precious” and Palm saying “Knov is the only one for me” which was expressed in a very romantic manner, and it all happened like 15 minutes after Killua and Gon said the same things abt each other.

Palm and Knov paralleled Gon and Killua from the very moment they were first introduced.

I’m working on a separate post that focuses solely on the parallels between PalmKnov and GonKillua because it’s a lot.

“Can I stay by your side?”

“Would you stay by my side?”

The bottom panel is the conversation between Meruem and Komugi before they... you know... shinjuu.

I know I talk a lot about Palm and Knov paralleling/reflecting killugon but the parallels with Meruem and Komugi go CRAZY. It's so underrated. The above dialogue is just one example of the many parallels.

Isn't it interesting how Togashi chose to make Gon and Killua reflect not just one but TWO romantic pairings so far?

"I want to stay by your side... always........."

"I'll stay with you... forever!!"

(they make me so sick it hurts)

Importance

I never realized how big of a theme "importance" was in hxh. It connects everything all together.

In the top left panel, it explains how Komugi is important to Pitou because of how Komugi is important to Meruem, and Meruem is important to Pitou.

But the thing is, although Pitou already knew it, Meruem (at the time) didn't realize that Komugi was the thing most important to him. The thing most important wasn't his initial goal of taking over the world, but the person he met along the way, the one who flipped his world upside down and gave him his first feelings of friendship and love.

Meruem didn't realize Komugi was most important to him until after they were separated and reunited again. He fully understood her importance as they prepared to die together (shinjuu).

Oh, and then we have Gon, Killua, and Palm, of course. And Ging.

We're all familiar with Killua's little breakdown. Palm reassured him that she wasn't the one most important to Gon, but that it was Killua all along. Killua is the most important to Gon.

Killua then also becomes important to Palm, because of how Killua is important to Gon, and Gon is important to Palm.

But the thing is, although Palm already knew it, Gon (at the time) didn't realize that Killua was the thing most important to him. The thing most important wasn't his initial goal of finding his dad, but the person he met along the way, the one who flipped his world upside down and gave him his first feelings of friendship and love.

Gon's true feelings and thoughts are actually still unclear, which leads me to believe that his story with Killua isn't over yet. I can only assume that he'll have a similar realization just like Meruem.

According to the bottom right panel, Gon will "inherit" the heart of realizing what (or who, in this case) is truly important. Togashi told us right there in bold lettering.

You alr know that man is cookin somethin real good up 🔥

"Killua is the only one for me!"

"You are the one most important to Gon."

Love

"It'll be a lovers suicide."

"His most beloved...." "Gon."

"Love will always prevail!!"

Ok but can we talk about how HISOKA of all people was the first to say it outloud that Gon and Killua are something more than friends? His little speech doesn't sound that ambiguous to me, he make it pretty clear that Gon is KIllua's beloved, right after using a hetero romantic couple as an example. read my post about this moment here!!

Love love love. HXH IS ABOUT LOVE. The main love of focus is between Gon and Killua, obviously.

And yeah, i know two of the panels aren't CAA related, but everything is indirectly connected to that arc so i'll allow it.

I already have a post regarding "the teachings of love" and how it connects to killugon. here ya go.

yeah. that's all i got for tonight.

long story short :

hxh gay killugon canon killugon reflect romantic pairings everywhere even hisoka admits it KILLUA LITERALLY ADMITTED IT OUT LOUD. killugon will reunite and maybe shinjuu together. thats how they end. just like komumu and meruru

WAKE UP. HXH WOKE!!!!! TOGASHI WOKE!!!!!

#killugon #killugon propaganda #killugon canon #togashi ships killugon #togashi is goated #no wonder hxh has been going on since 1998 #king of parallels #king of romance #togashi invented romance in 1998

What's In a Kimono? Part 10

On The Ninth Day of Fun I present... a new kimono! Another series makes it to the double digit mark at last! Let's take a dive into the kimono that's gracing the cover of my upcoming book ^^

Name: Kichō No Yume (几帳の夢) - Partition Dream Type: Houmongi (訪問着) Time Period: Heisei Period (1989 - 2019) Condition: Excellent Material: Silk Motifs: Partitions, Clouds, Fans, and Flowers Execution and Techniques: Yuzen and Stencils Value: $200 - 250 USD When I originally went to purchase this piece I thought that it was shibori (tie dye), but I was very surprised when it arrived and found that it's all hand dyed instead! The entire piece, including the background, is either hand painted yuzen or stencil dyed with extremely small, intricate stencils! This gives the whole piece a very dreamy effect that makes you want to stare and pick out the all of the details. It's almost hard to believe that the black background or the blue clouds aren't solid colors. The main motif here are Kichō (几帳), which are partitions used by the nobility during the Heian Period (794 - 1185), and cypress fans, also used by the nobility during the Heian Period. The partitions would be set up in rooms and block the viewer from gazing directly upon the face of the other noble. Just like the partitions, these large cypress fans were used by court women to hide their faces in large rooms and when meeting with potential suitors. The partitions and the fans were both decorated with pieces of silk that accentuated their length and drew the eye of the viewer to their lovely designs. You may have noticed on the right hand side near where the hem meets the collar that there's a random white square among all of the color. This isn't there by accident, but it being blank is! This is the area where the artist would dye their signature. That it somehow got skipped and sold as-is is gives it an air of mystery as it was clearly a work of art made by a famous artist, but who? I haven't found any other markings on this piece, so I guess we'll never know ^^

Kiriko Jealousy Headcanons (some NSFW)

A/N: this sat unfinished in my notes for a while so i went ahead and finished it up to feed you guys. im working on some kirihana content (as well as other requests) in the meantime. ngl ive been pretty busy, so i apologize for any inactivity, but i promise more stuff is slowly getting done. enjoy!

——————

• Kiriko is pretty mature and, generally, knows how to keep to herself when someone’s hitting on you. Especially if theyre actually respectful upon you rejecting them.

• And when it comes to your closeness with friends, she’s extremely lenient. She only asks that she knows where you are, but she never hovers you. She 100% trusts you.

• However, there have been times where someone had rudely insisted on getting your number, taking you out, etc. And in these instances, Kiriko isn’t so distant.

• For one, Kiriko enjoys holding you close. An arm around your back and her hand on your hip? She does this often. A quick kiss on the cheek? Holding your hand? Calling you “babe” or “precious?” All of the above.

• When things get more tense, though, Kiriko drops the sweet form of asserting herself.

“Sorry, but Y/N’s taken.” Kiriko held you flush against her with each of her hands on your hips. You shuddered as you felt her breath ghosting over the back of your neck with each word she murmured. “She’s not interested.”

• And Kiriko is hardly possessive, but that doesn’t mean she can’t be. Little acts like holding you by the hips or kissing you with a hand holding your chin always get you flustered. And she sure as hell enjoys little things that make her feel in more control over you.

• This is only 20% of the time. 60% of the time, when someone bothers you, she opts for the kiss on the cheek and a sweet nickname. That tends to ward anyone off.

• And the other 20%? Well, Kiriko has it taken care of before you even walk out the door.

• Kiriko loves marking you behind closed doors. Loves it. And depending on the events of a certain day, she’ll most definitely leave them in spots you can’t hide without a turtleneck.

• If she’s simply feeling romantic, Kiriko leaves marks on your chest and collarbone. Subtle bruises, but nothing crazy.

• If there’s been a guy talking to you that she’s wary about, though, or maybe somebody bothered you that day that she had to ward off, then you best believe she’s taking out her possessiveness on you.

You let out a sharp gasp as Kiriko pressed you against the bedroom door, fingers intertwined and breathing heavy. Your quick breathing quickly turned into a soft, blissfull moan, feeling Kiriko immediately press her face into the crook of your neck.

Her cheek brushed against yours as her tongue dragged its way along your jawline, slowly travelling down the side of your throat and eventually stopping just above your collarbone. Only a moment passed before you felt her teeth gently and lewdly press into your skin.

You keened and arched into her, and she only responded with a growl as she pressed your hands further up against the wall. The bite lasted just a few seconds and Kiriko finished it off with a gentle lick as she let go. She then kissed her way back up your neck and brought her lips to your ear.

“You’re mine, kichō.” She purred, her voice shockingly low already and giving away her arousal. “And I’m gonna make sure they know from now on. Okay?”

You could only nod as she nipped at your ear, eliciting a shaky whine from your lips. As the taller woman continued, you dutifully surrendered, exposing your throat with the raise of your chin and closing your eyes.

• The marks left behind the following morning always make Kiriko grin like an idiot. You try to be annoyed, but can’t help but find it a little hot that Kiriko chooses to assert herself this way. You also, oddly enough, find it somewhat cute with how proud of herself she gets.

• And whenever you tease her about her jealousy, she typically ends up fingering you numb. Overstimulation is a big yes when you relentlessly taunt her.

Aww look at you now…that pretty little face, all flustered just for me. Listen to yourself baby…you were so cocky just seconds ago. What happened, Y/N? Do my fingers feel that good? Yeah? Do me a favor and scream who you belong to, sweetheart. Just for me.

@heygutlcss has been found worthy

Nayotake no Kaguya-Hime sat dutifully behind the silk panels of the kichō as she listened to the translator list the solutions this foreigner had discovered to the riddles she had put to her suitors. A dark eye looked carefully through the panels at this foreigner. He wasn't sophisticated but looked like someone who'd spent a lifetime doing hard work.

She breathed deeply and stood up, hesitating a moment before she she parted the silk panels so this stranger could look upon her himself. <<Ask him if he wishes to stay the night,>> She said expecting this foreigner to understand the implications. That was why he had come wasn't it?

I am tearing my hair out over this and have spent near an hour on this and you're the only person I think would know. What were the net/blinds/veil things that Japanese emperors say behind when receiving guests or envoys called. You know like its shown in the flashback in Yohaji or in Elusive Samurai.

I'd recommend the second manga as I am asking as well. It's fun and I like the art.

if it's wooden blinds it's probably sudare, if it's cloth and looks like the one in yohaji below it's kichō. also this wikipedia page should be very helpful 👍

#asks #i actually tried getting into that manga a while back but its TOO too historical yknow #if a manga wants to put me neck deep in historical stuff it better take me out to dinner first (80 chapters of slice of life)

I am creation, both haunted and holy pt1

--------------------------------------------------------------- Summary: oh no Eddie don’t adopt another child Word count: 3683 ao3 link: here ---------------------------------------------------------------

There was a soft knock. Eddie picked his head up, it was late, who would be knocking on his door at this hour? Sausage was already in bed and dead asleep. The knock had caused Bubbles to awaken from her slumber growling. He hushed the dog, setting down the hammer and his current project and making his way to the door. The heavy spruce and iron door creaked as it opened, He reminded himself to put some grease on the hinges.

The last thing he expected to see was a small frame of a little girl and a deer. He opened his mouth, then closed it, too confused to say much. With the hand that was not propped on the deer, the little girl waved, sheepishly smiling, “Hello, I was looking for the blacksmith? I know it's late I just-” their voice cracking as they tried to speak over a whisper.

Eddie crossed his arms, “You’re looking at him, but where are your parents.”

She fiddled with a small pouch, “Oh good I was looking to comm-”

“Where are your parents?” Eddie pressed.

They froze, feet now shifting to have their toes pressed together, looking down, “I don’t know Sir.”

Eddie sighed, he already had Sausage who was more than a handful. But still, he crouched down, his tall stature probably adding to their fear, “I’m sorry, I’m Eddie,” He stuck out his paw, the frail child shaking it, “Now what's your name?” Maybe he could look into finding her parents.

She looked back at him, “Kichō.”

“That's a nice name,” He smiled, he offered his hand, “I’m Eddie. It's dark out why don’t you come inside?” They nodded, shaking as they let Eddie take their hand, the other one leaving the deer. For a moment She turned back, waving to it before the deer wandered off. He was still baffled by how unafraid the deer was. Her other hand quickly clasped over his, like her entire weight on his paw instead of her legs. His breath caught in his throat, but he tore his eyes away. As they walked inside to his kitchen he noticed the way she stumbled, slow with each step. Something was wrong.

Eddie helped her into one of the chairs, almost giggling at the way they could just barely see over the table. Bubbles coming by for a sniff, and probably pets. He knew full well that Sausage and him were much taller than most. He didn’t know how Sauage got as tall as he was but for him, it was just the hybrid in him. “Would you like anything to eat or drink?” She shook her head, arms flat across the table, almost as if trying to pull herself up. “Then why were you out so late? It's pretty dangerous for a kid such as yourself.”

“I don’t want people to see me, but I came to ask for a commission,” The small bag being plopped on the table with a small jingle, “I made some money-”

He felt bad for cutting the poor kid off so many times but, “No payment, keep the money sweetheart.”

“Oh,” they said quietly, slowly pulling back the bag, “My legs are starting to hurt and I can’t walk right and I was wondering if you could make me something? Like a cane maybe? I know it's a lot but I don’t really have any other options. Everyone else seems so,” Their eyes darted around as if looking for danger, “Scary.”

Eddie didn’t admit it to many, but boy did he have a bleeding heart. She looked ten years old, at max and she was, begging for a cane. For now, He just patted her head, “Of course, I will, don’t worry about it alright? But I can’t have you walking home in the dead of night alright? Do you want to stay here?” Eddie knew he didn’t have a spare room, his spare was now owned by Sausage, but that didn't matter much. He could sleep on the couch.

“Is there,” Once again, looking around as if they were being hunted, “Is there anyone else here?”

Eddie nodded, “Just my godson Sausage. He’s currently asleep upstairs in his room.”

“Is he like you?” She said the phrase so fast he almost didn’t catch what she had said. Their fingers instantly curling into fists, clutching the nightgown, trembling.

Eddie’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion, “Do you mean like rabbit or something else?”

“Rabbit.” She confirmed.

He let his head sway side to side, “Well no, he's got rabbit ears and antlers coming in but looks pretty human.” He shook his head, remembering all times Sausage had set fire to something or caused some kind of chaos.

Eddie watched as fear flashed like thunder in their eyes as they hopped off the chair, “Oh well, I’ll get going then!” Their voice had jumped almost an entire octave and was hurried in a way he couldn’t explain.

Eddie held out his hands to try to stop her escape, “Woah Woah, let's sit back down. He doesn’t harm anyone! Quite alright if you ask me.” The child took another step before stumbling and this time actually tripping, he stuck his arms out, catching them just in time. He lifted them just enough so he could look them in the eyes, “What makes you so worried?”

“Last time I saw momma before she dropped me off in the house in the woods, she told me not to trust anyone and not let anyone in.” Oh great, a bad mom and an abandoned child, his heart was going to bleed out if they kept talking.

“Then why do you trust me?” He asked.

Then they smiled, “Well you're a rabbit of course! The animals at home never hurt me! They take care of me!” Oh, now he was going to melt. The kid beamed with all the radiance of the sun.

He could help when she smiled and made his own come on to his face, “Fair enough, you can just stay in my room until I get it done yeah? Sausage isn't allowed in there anymore. He came in one morning, buzzin’ like a bee, jumping on my bed, snapped it right in half.”

She giggled, “Okay,” then her smile faltered, “But, where are you going to sleep?” Eddie stood up, taking her hand in his, leading her to his room, Bubbles trailing behind. Luckily his house was all one story.

He shrugged, “I’m just fine sleeping on the couch.”

Her face now a frown, “Oh, are you sure?”

Eddie ruffled her hair, “I’ve done it plenty of times before, doesn’t bother me now.” There was some truth to his statement, there had been plenty of nights where he was too exhausted from working, and instead of making it to his room, he’d just crash on the couch. What he did lie about was it not bothering him, he always woke up with a sore back, regretting it and telling himself he’d never do it again. “Now come on,” He picked them up by the armpits, slinging them around just like he used to with Sausage when he was much younger. Her giggles returned and resonated like ringing bells in his ears. Carefully, he tucked them into his bed, its massive size making the kid seem even tinier. After patting down the blankets, she yawned, he gave a small chuckle, “Goodnight Kichō.”

Through a mumble, they whispered, “Good night Mister.” Then, their eyes closed, and he watched for a minute as her breathing slowed to a long rise and fall. He made his way to the doorway, looking back one more time, before heading downstairs to the couch.

Eddie awoke to Sausage, his own rabbit ears flopping about, poking him, “Overworking yourself again huh?” Bubbles was at their feet, looking for breakfast.

It took him a second to blink away the sun in his eyes, before he sat up, bones popping as he stretched, “Not quite.”

He watched as Sausage's head tilted like Bubbles, “Oh? Do tell.”

Eddie knew he could trust Sausage, this was not an exception, “A little kid came in last night, it was nearly eleven p.m. poor thing asked for a cane, said their legs were giving out. Even worse, it's so skittish. They almost tried to go home last night, didn’t allow it to, so their asleep upstairs. So Sausage,” He held out his pinky, “You don’t know it's here.”

Sausage latched on to his pinky with his own, shaking it almost like a handshake, “I don’t know it's here.”

“Good,” Eddie ruffled his hair, carefully avoiding the antlers just starting to come in, as Sausage called out to protest, “I’ll go get started on breakfast.” Eddie headed into the kitchen.

Sausage was quick to follow, “Oooo, what's for breakfast?”

Eddie stopped to look at him, causing sausage to crash into him, “You think I know? I haven’t even touched the pantry yet.” Then resuming his walk to the pantry, “I know one thing for sure, we're not having Sausages.” Eddie smirked, remembering the time he made sausages for breakfast. It was the first and last time. Sausage burst into tears, thinking that Eddie had cooked parts of him.

Sausage rolled his eyes, “Come on now, you gotta let that go. It was years ago!”

Eddie laughed to himself as he grabbed out eggs and hashbrowns, “And yet it's my favorite story to tell.”

Sausage groaned, putting his head on the table and slinging both arms over his head, as Eddie lit the stove, the familiar tick tick tick, before it burst into flames, “You’re so mean.”

Eddie oiled the pan before setting it on the stove to heat up, “Sure sure.”

Breakfast continued on with their usual banter. Sure Eddie always gave him a hard time but he always made sure Sausage knew he was wanted here. Eddie had always attracted the people who were so-called tragedies, it was no surprise to anyone that Eddie immediately took Sausage in. He had always liked those people more, being one himself. They always seemed to appreciate the finer things in life more, not taking anything for granted.

A knock from the door broke their usual breakfast, Sausage bolted up calling out, “I got it!” There in the doorway stood the man from the day before, he had traveled all this way for a chisel. He watched for a moment as they bantered and Sausage just laughed, pushing the man down at the breakfast table, offering the man breakfast, which the man held out his hand and shook his head.

A flash of movement caught Eddie's eyes as he looked down the hall, there was the kid from last night, tucked right around the corner watching them. Eddie sighed, getting up, he patted Sausage on the back before taking his plate to the sink and giving it a quick rinse. He grabbed a fresh plate, making the portions smaller before heading down the hall, calling to Sausage that he’d be right back and to feed Bubbles. The floorboards creaked under him as he made his way back. She had just stayed put, watching him come closer till they were right next to each other, just staring. “Good morning Kichō.”

Looking back up at him, their big bright golden hazel eyes staring straight into his ashen grey ones, “Good morning Mister Eddie.”

“Would you like some breakfast? I made Eggs and hashbrowns.” Her gaze nervously looked to the kitchen table to the sounds of Sausages roaring laughter and the man looking like he was pouting. They both turned to look back at each other, “You don’t have to sit at the table, you can eat in my bed.” They nodded, sticking out their hand, the other on the wall, Eddie grabbed their hand leading them back. He set them back into the bed, setting the plate on the bedside table for a second. He grabbed out the little bed table he had made for sausage when he was younger, poor kid had gotten sick so often. Gently he unfolded the legs, setting them down over their lap. He set the plate and the silverware down, “There you go. Eat up.”

Neither of them spoke for a while she ate, Bubbles eventually making her way over and hopping up on the bed, curling up at the foot. But of course, Eddie could never stand silence for too long, “So, Have you thought about what kind of wood you want?”

The kid's face twisted into one of confusion, “There's more than one type of wood?”

Eddie bit back a laugh, shock hitting him, oh dear lord this kid. “Yes, there's nine types of wood. Would you like me to go grab some samples?” They just nodded, taking another bite. “Alright, I’ll be right back.” Eddie made his way out of the room. Now the sounds of clanking metal now fading in. Seems like Sausage was already hard at work, breakfast cleaned up. He leaned into the forge, “Hey Sausage.”

Sausage paused, looking up from his project, lifting up his goggles, “What's up?”

Eddie patted the door frame with two solid knocks, “You’re answering the door today yeah?”

Sausage nodded, putting his goggles back on, “Oh for sure. I got it covered.” And be returned to his work.

Eddie took that as his queue to leave, heading into the storage room. He had to dig around for a while, but eventually, he found it. It was a small piece of plywood with each piece of wood on it, a simple one by one-inch square. He looked around the storage room one last time, god he really needed to organize this place. He shook his head, that was a project for another day.

By the time Eddie had made it back to his bedroom, Kichō was all finished with breakfast. She was staring out the window. He gave a gentle knock on the open door, letting her know that he was here. Unfortunately, she still jumped a mile high which caused Bubble's head to shoot up. “Sorry,” He halfway laughed, “Whatcha looking at?”

Their eyes drifted back to the window, Bubbles relaxing, going back to her nap, “The butterflies saw I was gone and came looking for me. I’m usually outside on my swing feeding them by now.”

Eddies face twisted in doubt, “Uh huh, sure.” That sounded a little darker than he had hoped it would.

She huffed, crossing her arms, “Oh yeah? Just open the window. I’ll show you.”

“Okay, just don’t be too sad when they don’t come in alright?” Although he halfway raised Sausage, he was still terrible with crying children. He slid open his window, the warm morning breeze drifting in, bringing with it, tens of butterflies, all flocking to Kichō. His jaw dropped. He’d never even seen so many and of all different kinds. Unbelievable.

They sat there giggling as they were swarmed, talking to them, and the butterflies responded, almost like they could understand each other. “I told you so.” She said beaming once more.

He blinked a couple of times, closing his mouth, trying to shake himself from his stupor, “Yeah I guess so.”

They held out their finger, a butterfly landing on them as he sat down next to them, “See this one? It's from my first year of raising butterflies. A Pipevine Swallowtail or Battus philenor. They’re my favorite.”

Eddie watched the blue and black wings spotted with orange open and close, “Those are some big words.”

He swore her smile got just a bit bigger, “Why thank you!”

He laughed again, “You’re welcome. Now, let's pick out wood huh?” He pulled out the samples. “So here are the samples,” carefully pointing to each as he called out their name, “Then these are our nether woods-”

“Nether?” They paused looking up at him.

“Yeah the nether, a whole ‘nother dimension.” Eddie nodded.

She gasped, “Really? What's it like there? Is it pretty?”

“Unfortunately, quite the opposite. It's hot, everything is on fire, lava everywhere and barely any plants.” Eddie sighed, remembering the time he tried to travel there to get the wood himself, the piglin guards tried to make him pay a giant gold fee. He stomped off saying forget it. Ever since he's just had the wood imported, expensive as all get, but worth it in his opinion.

“But you said this wood is from there?” Kichō said pointing to the Warped fungus.

“There's only two biomes plants can grow and really these aren’t really trees, their really thick Fungi.” He explained.

They gasped, “Really!? That's so cool.” Kichō rubbed her chin for a second before pointing to the warped fungus, “Can I have this one? It matches my favorite butterfly!”

Eddie chuckled, “Of course kiddo.”

Eddie spent the rest of the day on the project, occasionally checking in on Kichō. Bubbles keeping her company amidst all the butterflies. He pushed the rest of the projects behind. Those projects could all wait. Honestly, He was thankful Kichō had chosen this type of wood, it was so much easier to carve than almost all the others, but still incredibly sturdy, but he was going to reinforce it with a hallow metal rod inside anyways. He took his time with it, occasionally testing it himself, making sure it didn’t crack or break. But still, he wanted to decorate it, but his paws were too large for tiny details.

“Sausage,” Eddie said as he held out the tiny cane, examining his work.

Sausage was doing the same, polishing the handle of that chisel, “Yeah?”

“Do you think you could come do some detail work on this for me?” Eddie said handing over the cane.

Sausage nodded, putting down the chisel, “Yeah for sure, like what?”

“Butterflies, Kid loves ‘em. Says she raises a new species every year.” Eddie watched as Sausage turned it over.

“Oh really? That's so cute. Never tried before but you can bet your bottom dollar I’ll do it just perfect.” Sausage bragged. Eddie swore he had some gift from the gods with craftmanship. At a little more than half his age, Sausage was already much better than he and boy did he know it too. Boy let the entire world know at this point, letting anyone who asked know. Not that it was unjustified.

Eddie leaned back, watching as Sausage practiced on a random scrap of wood lying around, of course getting it perfect first try. Sausage raised an eyebrow, asking him if Eddie thought it was good, Eddie nodded, “You’re pretty damn good sausage.”

Sausage puffed out his chest as he picked up the cane, “Oh but of course.”

Eddie was tempted to smack the boy upside the head, but just huffed instead, “Don’t get too big of a head now.”

Sausage smiled that million-dollar smile before saluting him, “Aye aye cap!” Sausage's attention now on the cane.

With that, Eddie retreats letting Sausage focus. “Don’t cut yourself!” He threw behind him as he left. He heard an “I won't!” faintly behind him.

Eddies' eyes traveled to the windows, watching as the Sun dipping just below the horizon painting the sky with all sorts of colors. He smiled to himself, he ought to start on dinner. Not before checking in on Kichō. Learning from last time, he just called into the room, “Hey kiddo.”Both Bubbles and Kichō froze. Bubbles' tails was thumping against the bed as she was in a playful pose. Eddie laughed, “Seems like you two were having fun.”

Bubbles bounced back into action, barking playfully. Kichō giggled, “I like your doggy.”

Eddie sat on the bed, “I like her too, although she's really Sausages.” At first, Eddie was not entirely enthralled with getting a dog, so he made Sausage work for it. He wasn’t even sure how many commissions Sausage had taken and finished that week. When he saw that boy bounding back with that tiny puppy in tow, he didn’t regret letting him get that dog. Not one bit. Ever since then Sausage and Bubbles have almost been inseparable. “Speaking of Sausage, he's just adding some finishing details on your cane, then I’ll put some polish on it and you’ll be all set yeah?”

He was surprised and flinched when she squealed, “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” Arms flinging out and pulling him into a hug. He almost yelped, choosing to chuckle instead, patting her on the back.

“My pleasure kiddo, we’ll feed you too. Can’t have you going home on an empty stomach alright?” Eddie said letting go which was quickly replaced by Bubbles curling up in her lap.

“Are you sure, you're being so kind?” They said sheepishly.

“Not another word,” Eddie cut them off. “You’re a kid, don’t worry about it alright?”

Dinner went by without a hitch, the butterflies then long gone. The moon was starting to rise, and stars starting to appear. Eddie sighed, looking toward the forest. Was it really safe for this small child? He’d heard rumors of something in the forest. Creatures of the night roaming freely. The traveler every once in a while tells of a monster that wasn’t a mob lying in the woods. But this kid had survived this long, there must have been a reason. He took a deep breath in, relaxing his whole body as he breathed out.

“Ready to go?” Eddie said crouching down, holding out his arms.

Kichō smiled, “I’m ready to try!”

“Careful now,” Eddie warned as he looked for anything out of place.

Kichō took a few steps, wobbling but still standing. Eddie smiled and she cheered. Reaching out she hugged him. Eddie hugged back, holding her tight. This wasn't his child but although he hated to admit it, he had gotten attached.

Eddie took his time guiding them back to the forest's edge, “Are you sure you don't want me to walk you home?”

“I’m okay Mister Eddie.” Kichō waved, walking to the tree line's edge before turning and waving, “Goodbye Mister!”

Eddie waved back as she disappeared, “Goodbye Kichō.”

Togashi's "interview" with Jump Ryu magazine & DVD 2016

i found this information and translation from the hxh fandom site - https://hunterxhunter.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:MrGenial11/Jump_Ryu_Vol.21:_Yoshihiro_Togashi

it’s long so i’m rephrasing and only sharing the Hunter x Hunter stuff & some Togashi facts i found interesting (and y’all too probably) so :

When Togashi was in junior high school, he was fully attracted to Shōjo manga (girls manga) such as Mineo Maya's manga. (Mineo Maya is known for creating LGBT ((shōnen-ai/gay)) manga)

Togashi read manga like "Urusei Yatsura" and learned how to attract female audience.

Although Togashi’s favorite manga genre is Shōnen, he thinks he's suitable for Shōjo manga.

Togashi's first manga serialization was a romantic comedy, Ten de Shōwaru Cupid. Afterwards, he began Yu Yu Hakusho. After YYH, Togashi wanted to create manga that WOULDN'T be popular to show various aspects of his personality as mangaka to his audience. He then created Level E.

After Level E, Togashi began Hunter x Hunter. He changes his style in each arc so his audience can be surprised. Togashi loves surprising his audience.

Togashi thinks characters are sometimes more important than the story itself.

The Chimera Ant arc ended differently than Togashi first expected.

He creates simulations of the characters and how they will talk with each other and take an action in situations. This allows his audience to feel as if his characters really exist.

Togashi drew his characters acting unexpectedly in desperate situations when they encountered someone accidentally. For example, the encounter between Morel and Shaiapouf, or Killua and Meleoron.

Togashi has been attracted to the dirty side of manga rather than beautiful side ever since he was a junior high school student. (whatever that means..)

Togashi drew Yu Yu Hakusho's art style impressively and Level E realistically. In Hunter x Hunter, he avoids using screentones as much as possible.

Togashi considers the manuscripts of Hisoka and Kastro's fight as "bad quality" . He said that the internet fandom was angry and embarrassed with the chapter at that time. (so he DOES look at fanforums. that's no good)

"Togashi-sensei is very gentle. He remembers what editors said in the past" (a quote from one of his editors)

"Togashi resembles Gon/Ging Freecss in terms of personality" (another quote from his editor) (the hunterpedia page said “Gin” so idk if the translator misspelled “Gon” or forgot the last “g” in “Ging” 😺 i see both tbh)

Togashi scolded an editor only once when they slightly changed a few words in the manga without permission.

Togashi is very confident in his words being interesting. He chooses his words and sticks with them, not letting anyone change them. He is very selective and peculiar about the words he uses. (hm this makes me think of the lines “ja nakya dame nan da”/“shika inai” , “dajina”/“kichō” , “shinjū” , ect.)(dw i’m making a post explaining those lines later)

Togashi's message to mangaka beginners: "Keep in mind the audience. Make every effort to go beyond their expectations.”

#so yeah togashi is a pretty cool dude #he confidently talks about being into shojo and lgbt bl manga #as he should #didn’t wanna make this about killugon… but i am #killugon #killugon propaganda

Hi, could you list the main motifs on Kotsuru's new year kuromontsuki? Photo on Shigemori IG. I'm particularly interested in the element on her thigh. A building with a star on its roof? I'm really puzzled. Also I don't think I've ever seen this kimono before, do you think it's a new piece? Thanks in advance!

The main motifs are kichō (几帳), which are partitions used by the nobility and all season plants, such as chrysanthemums, pine, plum blossoms, orange blossoms, and more. As to what the flaming mandala thing is, I've tried getting an answer to that for years, but all I know is that it's used in shrines ^^

Kiriko x Reader Choking HCs (mostly nsfw)

first shot at this hc thing here on tumblr. will also be posted on ao3. ive been wanting choking hcs but nobody’s done it (smh) so i did it myself. enjoy!

————

• Choking is one of Kiriko’s favorite things to both give and recieve in bed.

• When she’s in the mood, she’ll often start things slowly and sensually with you by leaving a hand pressed against your chest, lingering around your shoulders. She’s very touchy as is, but when she wants you in a certain place right then and there, she’s quick to work her way up your collar and eventually around your throat when things get feverish.

• She’s often gentle. She enjoys keeping you in her control while also making you feel safe.

• When Kiriko chokes you, her kisses are definitely deeper than average. She uses her hand not only to assert herself, but also to keep you still while she explores your mouth with her skillful tongue.

• This slow, sensual kind of choking only happens some of the time, though.

• Kiriko is no stranger to handling brattiness, and if you tease her enough about something specific, she will have a hand around your throat in no time. Harshly.

• She isn’t afraid to slam you against the nearest wall. Especially if you’ve been snarky with her.

• She uses her hand to push you back, pinning you either against a wall or onto the bed singlehandedly (literally). It’s exhilerating, and a hot reminder that Kiriko is actually pretty damn strong despite her slender arms.

• She can be rough when she wants to be. Often times you find yourself gasping for air as she keeps you pinned by the throat with a hand, her other hand either running through her bangs as she smugly watches you, or working between your legs, fucking you senseless.

• Either way, she’s always giving you that sly little smirk. She loves having you powerless beneath her.

• Kiriko enjoys looming over you after shutting you up, watching you pant helplessly. Her grip on your throat often tightens if you try to talk.

• She loves you, but she knows you love being put in your place. When you’ve been taunting her all day, she only lets you beg for more or say her name by the time she has you eager for release. Anything else you try to say only has you choking on the very fingers that had just been inside of you. But she knows you like that, too.

“Put that mouth to better use for me, kichō…”

• When she pins you by the throat, she feels in control. And she loves it. She enjoys watching you writhe weakly as you arch your back keenly, blissfully whimpering for more.

• It sends predatory sensations through her, and said sensations make her want to do things to you that would render your legs numb the following morning.

• Of course, with Kiriko, biting is never out of the picture.

• Nipping at your bottom lip and choking you sensually is one of her favorite combinations. If you don’t already have marks from her nails pressed against the underside of your jaw, you’re sure to have hickeys.

• Marking you is her secret (not so secret) way of telling anyone who asks that you’re already hers.

• When it’s Kiriko’s turn to submit, though, she knows how to submit.

• The sensation of being trapped between your body and the pillows with a hand around her throat and another between her thighs sets her body on fire. She loves to feel preyed on, and she loves to please. Whatever you ask of her, she’ll do dutifully. Including letting you have your way with her.

“F-Fuck…Y/N…you’re so good at this, please-, I- I need more…”

• When you choke her, the submissive, desperate, wanting look on her face never ceases to make you melt.

• Between you two, Kiriko is a huge sucker for praise and control, going both ways. So hearing you call her a good girl as she’s being fucked relentlessly, her throat pinned to the mattress and legs inevitably separated by your body? It definitely turns her on.

• Kiriko submits to you with enthusiasm, but enjoys making it difficult from time to time. But one of the things that renders her weak on the spot is your hands.

• She loves being touched, whether it’s affectionately or sensually. In public, when you kiss her and rest a hand on her hip or her chest, she gets all hot and bothered, attempting to hide her blushing.

• Using this to your advantage behind closed doors usually has the same effect, except in those instances, she ends up lustfully sighing your name between broken gasps for air.

• Choking isn’t always used roughly on her end, however. Sometimes, in a more romantic circumstance, she’ll leave a hand on your collar and kiss you sweetly. Little touches to remind you that you’re loved, protected, and safe. She likes seeing you blush of course, and charm is one of her strong suits.

———

A/N: this got long bc it’s lowkey self indulgent 💀 sorry guys
