Happy Tiger & Bunny Day!

>The entire arena cheers at the stroke of midnight, beginning Tiger & Bunny Day.

Mario: As part of Justice Week, the Mayor has declared April 4th Tiger & Bunny Day since it's the anniversary of the first episode the anime series, Tiger & Bunny. Hard to believe it's been 12 years and we now have 12 heroes. Let's see how each one is doing. Let's start with our Crusher of Justice and one of our veterans in the Hero Buddy System: Kotetsu Kaburagi, aka Wild Tiger!

Thanks, Mario. Though I wish you wouldn't have used my real name. I may not have my powers anymore and no longer a hero, I still have to hide my identity. Anyway, I'm still trying to find a way to keep busy. I still want to be involved in Hero TV.

Mario: You could always try becoming an announcer... Actually, don't. I already have the job... But I suppose there's always that.

Kotetsu: (curious) What do you mean?

Mario: (smiling) You'll see when Justice Day comes. So, what are you doing now?

Kotetsu: Well, right now, I'm making my famous fried rice. My family's coming over for Justice Day. We're going to the Blorkus Spring Fair and then the parade.

Mario: I'm told you go there every year. Have you ever thought about doing anything different?

Kotetsu: I don't see why we should change a perfectly good family tradition.

Mario: That is true. Me and the old ball n' chain watch the parade every year without fail... (nervously) Not that she is a ball n' chain. She's one of the best things that ever happened to me. Well, thanks for you time, Ko- I mean, Wild Tiger.

Kotetsu: Anytime.

Mario: (Oh boy, I wonder what Agnes and Lloyds will say if he's not coming.) And now, we should check on Super Scion of the Aristocracy and the other veteran of the Buddy System: Barnaby Brooks Jr.!

Thanks, Mario. It's a pleasure.

Mario: So, what are you doing now?

Barnaby: Well, I just finished reading The Legend of the Goddess of Justice to the children here at the orphanage. I've never seen them more excited for Justice Day since that one Justice Day when we thought the legend was coming true.

Mario: Yes, that was a very memorable time. They even made a movie out of it. It just makes me wish to know if they're going to make a third one.

Barnaby: We can only hope.

Mario: Which makes me wonder, what will you be doing on Justice Day? Will you be coming to the Justice Day Ball at the Maylor's mansion this year?

Barnaby: I don't know. I was hoping to take the kids here to the fair and the parade... But I saw what happened... (wink) Don't worry, I'll make sure he comes.

Mario: (unsure) Okay. Thanks for your time, Barnaby.

Barnaby: Happy to help.

Mario: And next up, the Wondering Prince of Gravity, Ryan Goldsmith, aka Golden Ryan.

Thank you! Who's awesome? I'm awesome!

Mario: (unimpressed and whispering) I think that's mantra's taken. (back to normal and out loud) So, Ryan, how are you doing?

Ryan: Just fine. Just watched a movie with my pet, Molly. I thought it would be a nice way to spend some time before Justice Day.

Mario: So, you'll be going to the ball that day?

Ryan: You bet. I've got my tickets and my suit ready.

Mario: That's great. Will we be seeing Blue Rose coming with you.

Ryan: (laughing) You wish. She's performing at the parade. But don't worry. I have someone in mind... Jr. said so.

Mario: Oh, now we're really curious. Anyway, thanks for your time.

Ryan: Just make sure you get my good side when they show the ball on TV.

Mario: I'm sure we will. And speaking of the Icy Superstar, let's check on Blue Rose now. How are you, my dear?

Thanks, I'm fine. Just getting in some last minute rehearsals before the big day.

Mario: Yes, Ryan told us. Have you got a new song for us in store?

Blue Rose: Not really. Just some of the recent stuff, but I know some new talents that might have something up their sleeves. I just know they'll be the real show stopper.

Mario: True. But I doubt... Never mind.

Blue Rose: (unimpressed) Yeah, we better.

Mario: But still, we can't wait for any new songs you might come up with soon.

Blue Rose: Don't worry. I will. I'm actually working on one right now. It's still a working progress, but you'll hear it soon enough.

Mario: I'm sure we will. Thank you for your time.

Blue Rose: Hope to see you all at the Justice Day Parade!

Mario: Now, to check up on our Expert of Being Seen in the Background, Origami Cyclone, who, at this time, is with his partner, the Bulltank of the West Coast, Rock Bison.

Thank you.

Mario: Where's Bison?

Origami Cyclone: Probably best you don't know.

>You can clearly hear the sound of gagging in the background.

Mario: So, got any plans for Justice Day?

Origami Cyclone: Not really. I'm just going to hang out with some old classmates from the Hero Academy. Catch a movie and then finish off with the parade.

Mario: Does that include He Is Thomas?

Origami Cyclone: No. He's got plans with his sister.

Mario: Really? I would have thought you would go to the ball.

Origami Cyclone: No, but Bison is. Right?

(panting and staggering) You bet I am! I'm gonna have ball- (quickly ducks out of the camera and clearly into a toilet)

Mario: (a bit worried) I thought he quit drinking.

Origami Cyclone: Actually, we were having dinner and he eat some bad sushi. As you hear, one of the chefs is being yelled at by the manager.

Voice from outside the bathroom: YOU'RE FIRED! HOW COULD YOU SERVE SUSHI THAT WAS ON THE FLOOR!?

Other voice from outside: (nervously) Three second rule...

>More gagging could be heard from Bison. Origami is not happy with what he sees in the bowl.

Origami Cyclone: (serious) And there's blood there. Sorry, we'll have to cut this short, gotta get this one to the ER. Thanks for checking in.

Mario: Sounds like the hospital's going to have their hands full. Here's wishing Bison a speedy recovery. Next up, the Wind Master, Sky High, and his partner, the Bourgeois Open Flame Broil, Fire Emblem!

We're so happy that for the interview. Thanks, and thanks again!

Mario: Do I see fancy wear in the background? Are you two going to the ball?

(this is the only picture I could find) You bet! I know we'll be the stars of the ball... Until the surprise. I'm told this year's Justice Day Ball at the Mayoral Mansion promises to be a memorable one.

Mario: Really? What is it?

Sky High: We're not sure ourselves at the moment. We're just as excited about this as you are.

Mario: No doubt. Thank you for your time.

Sky High and Fire Emblem: You're welcome, and you're welcome again!

Mario: And now, to see the Lightning Bolt Kung-Fu Master, Dragon Kid!

Thanks, Mario. I was just doing some last minute training. I'll be back.

Mario: So, got any plans for Justice Day?

Dragon Kid: It took a while, but it looks like my parents can come for Justice Day. We're even going to the ball at the Mayor's house.

Mario: That's wonderful. Got any plans for the rest of Justice Week with them?

Dragon Kid: Well, mostly we're just going to do some sightseeing until it's time for them to go home. But I'm sure it won't be so bad. There might be some places in Sternbild we might not even know about.

Mario: You mean... Everlasting Life? You don't really believe that, do you?

Dragon Kid: Who knows, Mario. Who knows. Well, better get back to training. See you at the ball.

Mario: (whispering) It takes all kinds of people. (out loud) Anyway, let's move on to the Magical Girl Carnivoran, Magical Cat!

Hello, everyone!

Mario: So, what are you up to?

Magical Cat: I convinced my mother to play tennis with me. She's just taking a break right now.

Mario: So, what do you have planned for Justice Day?

Magical Cat: Me and Mama usually spend it with a big dinner and watching the parade on TV. But this year, my boss gave me a ticket to the ball. I'll be going. I wanted to bring Mama with me, but she says it would make me stand up more to the fans if I want by myself. Of course, she doesn't mind I share the spotlight with Dragon Kid. I can't wait to see what will happen.

Mario: Neither can I. Or the fans.

Magical Cat: (hearing a flushing sound nearby) Sounds like Mama's coming back. Hope to see you later!

Mario: Same here. Now for the One Adorned in White Light, He Is Thomas!

... Hello. I'm just here with my sister.

(this is the only picture I could find) Hello, everyone!

Mario: How sweet. Spending time with you little sister. I guess you two have plans for Justice Day?

Ruby: Yes. First, we're going to visit the Spring Fair and then we're going to a ball.

Mario: Does this mean we'll be seeing you at the Mayoral Mansion on Justice Day?

He Is Thomas: Yes. It was Carlotta's idea.

Mario: Even Mr. Black?

He Is Thomas: He says he already has plans for that day... Carlotta was really upset.

Mario: I can imagine that. But I hope you two will have a fantastic time.

Ruby: I'm sure we will.

He Is Thomas: Thank you.

Mario: Just one Hero left: The Literal Man in Black, Mr. Black!

What was that?

Mario: Oops! Caught you at a bad time?

Mr. Black: (just realizing he failed to acknowledge the camera again and pulling the towel up) Holy shoot! When did you guys get here?

Mario: We're just checking up on our Heroes and asking what they have planned for Justice Day. Thomas said you're not going to the ball.

Mr. Black: I'm not. One of my friends from Panjourney's coming over to visit for Justice Day. We're just gonna do some sightseeing, hit up the fair, and finally end it with the parade.

Mario: That sound nice. Having a friend over from when you were Hello Goodbye.

Mr. Black: No kidding. (starting to get embarrassed) Now could you please leave? I was just about to take a shower.

Mario: Right, thank you for your time. (whispering) I wonder how many fans he'll earn from that interview? (out loud) Well, that's all the heroes we can interview. Before we end tonight's program, a word from the famous NEXT, Little Aurora.

Thank you, Mario. It is wonderful to know that our heroes find some time outside of being heroes. These days, we hope to celebrate Justice Day knowing that for this day, and, possibly now, Justice Week, we are reminded that we all carry a heart of justice. For when all is said and done, we are one people. Thank you.

Mario: And that concludes tonight's program. We hope to see you all again soon. This has been Hero TV Live!

tag game

Rules: tag 9 people you’d like to know better/annoy a little with silly games lol.

Top 4 ships: (Having done similar lists, in the interests of not being a broken record this might be slightly weighted/arbitrary, but)

Cassie Maddox and Rob Ryan (Dublin Murder Squad). I love almost every word/character Tana French has ever written, but it always goes back to these two. I know what it’s like to have a complicated, familial yet precariously close to unhealthy intensity in a friendship and it’s not the individual characters as much as the palpable tells of commonality and instinct between them that feels like that but blown into uniquely epic proportions. This relationship is written in some of the most beautiful prose I’ve ever read and even giving fanfic for this series the old college try is always a bit daunting; even though I’ve never not been in the middle of a book it was an obsession which was kind of the beginning of literature making up a good deal of my fandom writing/activity, so, formative at the least, life-destroying at the most.

Barnaby Brooks Jr. and Kotetsu Kaburagi (Tiger & Bunny). I think the reason this is one of my favorites is that it’s one of those extremely unlikely pairings (not so much in the sense of sexuality but their personalities, their histories, that age difference which actually isn’t as big a gap as I initially thought) which isn't really that unlikely when you take a closer look at the way they canonically and potentially complement each other. Even though this is overall a pretty lighthearted series with funny characters that you wouldn’t immediately credit with much subtlety, it impressively draws both guys in this partnership as having maladapted, in occasionally melodramatic but mostly everyday, sublimated ways, to traumatic losses, and these two characters are almost incidentally shoved into each other’s lives when the only self-prescribed recourse is to bury their heads further into isolation. When this series was first airing a lot of the discussion circled around Barnaby (positively or negatively) as a Bruce Wayne woobie type, but look, they’re both the woobie in very different ways (and neither of them is that reductively comparable to any superhero character I know), and they manage to build love and trust between them that withstands the fact that the timing for dropping the emotional bombs is never good.

James T. Kirk and Nyota Uhura (Star Trek). I mean, my longest (and longest-running WIP) fic ever is partly about this pairing and they’ve been living in my head on and off for...ten years. I like these two in TOS too (though mostly in the uh, less gendered moments) but AOS fandom will always have a special place in my heart no matter how much hate other people have for it and I lost my mind over the potential angst and growth and chemistry of this ship. Can’t say I’m unhappy it was never canon though.

Natasha Romanov and Steve Rogers (MCU). So the first Avengers movie came out and they had some brief but very chill interactions and she was being all reformed-murderer and he was being all “ma’am” and I remember having a talk with someone like, man, that would be such an avenue for them to go down exploring an unlikely relationship but then I thought nah, they’ll never be each other’s designated love interest so that would never get explored, right? And then the Russos gave me The Winter Soldier, and they are now without question my favorite relationship in any of these movies. And I love that it’s a male-female friendship that is very close without making those loud self-conscious clarifications about “ugh, it would be like kissing a sibling” because oh no viewers don’t understand complicated/ambiguous/mature relationships between the two genders (discounting that shit in AOU when Steve was like, the designated bro who had to give Bruce the disclaiming permission to pursue Nat or whatever bleghyeahno). There isn’t really a way for me to believe them that isn’t sad or bittersweet, I’m not so on board with them getting married and HEA, but I think...it’s complicated.

Last song: The Vaults cover of Alt-J’s “Hunger of the Pine”

Last movie: Jumanji: The Next Level

Reading: Too many things at once, but I just started Margaret Atwood’s The Testaments. I have reservations about this sequel, with how it’s in a kind of dialogue with the TV series and what that implies (though I think there are also some inconsistencies which just has me confused), and it does seem like an unnecessary return to what was a deliberately open-ended masterpiece timed to the success of the adaptation. Still, Atwood can write pages and pages made up mostly of somber world-building and make it mysteriously compelling.

Craving: Hugs.

Tagged by @nichiiko ! Thank you, hon~! ;”D

Nickname: Kei

Starsign: Aquarius

Height: 161 cm the last time I checked

Time: 12:04 PM

Last thing Googled: Suzuki Touichirou. Since I was looking for references to draw him since I’ve never drawn him before until now.

Fav music artists: I don’t really have anyone specific come to mind at the moment as long as the music can make me want sing along.

Song stuck in head: Right now, it would be Complicated (feat. Kiiara) - Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike VS. David Guetta. It has nice beat :”))

Last movie watched: OMG... I haven’t been to the cinema for so long... what is it again??.... I think it was Guardian of The Galaxy 2.... Man, it’s really been a while;;;;;;

Last TV show watched: I don’t watch TV shows :”)))

Wearing: Shorts and T-Shirt

Blog created: Since 2014, but it just became more active in Mid-2015

What I post: Mostly MP100 right now, last time was mostly Kekkai Sensen. I rarely post original stuff and I decided to put my webcomic not too long ago, still have no clue when I should continue it /sweats

Other blogs: I had another blog before, but I already abandoned it. I’m not good at multi-tasking since I’m type of person who would focus on one thing at a time :”))

Do you get asks often?: Nah, I don’t get asks often. But, compared to like last or 2 years ago, I get asks more now since I started to be more socialize in this blog. But, I always appreciate asks in my inbox, they make me excited XD

Why did I choose my URL: It’s a name I had created since I was in a middle school. While I was browsing through the internet, specifically MangaUpdates, I misread a japanese publishing company from Akita Shoten to Akira Shota. After that, I used it as my web name. But, Akira’ was such a popular web name around that time, I found a lot of other users who used this name and also I realized the name is quite a mouthful to say. I had an OC called Keisuke back then when I was still active in RP, then this friend often called me ‘Kei’ every time we chatted, that’s when I decided to change it to Keishota instead and it’s been stuck to me until now.

Gender: Female

Hogwarts house: Hufflepuff when I did the test

Pokemon team: I don’t play Pokemon GO, so I dunno about this one :”))

Fav colour: Black! and other dark colors! :”D

Avg hours of sleep: 6-7 hours. If I drink caffeine at night, then it’s 4 hours :”))

Lucky number: 4 (funny thing I like a number that means ‘death’ in Mandarin and my superstitious family, or most chinese, considered this number as a bad luck)

Fav characters: Mob, Teru & Takenaka (MP100); Klaus Von Reinherz, Leonardo Watch & K.K (Kekkai Sensen); Vash The Stampede & Nicholas D. Wolfwood (Trigun); Kotetsu T. Kaburagi & Barnaby Brooks Jr. (Tiger & Bunny)

Dream job: Comic Artist, yet I don’t know if I want to make it as my main job =\
