Onesie Party

SUMMARY: Ace and Deuce, with a hint from Cater and financially support from Kalim, gave you a costume made Grim onesie. And decided to throw a surprise (to only you) onesie party at Ramshackle Dorm and invite all the students you knew. Onesies were the mandatory dress code!

CHARACTERS: All NRC Students. (Leona is mentioned because, let’s face it, he would only wear a onesie if he was forced to)

TAGS: Fluf; GN Reader.

WORD COUNT: 3.780

COMMENTS: I'm new at posting here on tumblr. This is the first thing I write as a fan of something. I already read other things like this here and I enjoyed them. One night I was wearing my own onesie and got this idea. I also like to write so, why not?

I hope you enjoy reading. I did enjoy writing it.

BTW: English isn't my first language.

You were on Ramshackle Dorm. It was already late night, and you were getting ready to go to bed when you decided to make one last check at your Magicam.

You had a massage from Cater. He sent to you a post. It was a photo of someone wearing a black cat onesie with red fire in its ears.

Cater: It reminded me of Gri-Chan

Cater: they're making custom onesie!!

Cater: a Grim onesie would be so adorbs!!!!!

Cater: and you'd look so cuuute on one ;)

That made you giggle. You checked the post just to confirm what you´ve already thought.

You: They’re sooo CUTE!!!

You: I would love to have a Grim onesie but…

You: they’re so expensive :(

You: That and Grim would probably tease me about it and his ego would inflate even more -.-

Cater: hahahahaha He would do that because he would love to see you in that too XD

Cater: but yah... it's a shame it's so expensive :(

Cater: Ow... I need to go... Don't want to lose my head to be up past hours

Cater: nighty night~

You: good night ~

Little did you know Cater would tell your two dummy best friends about the onesie thing.

It was a chilly night, some days after that chat, and the sun was just a few seconds of set, when you heard a knock on the front door.

Grim smelled the air. “I smell FOOD!” he said, rushing to the door.

You hear Ace and Deuce's voices. And then you see them appear in the lounge where you were sitting on the sofa. If you were drinking something, you would have spit it out or choked on your laughter.

Besides having some bags with snacks, they were also wearing onesies. Ace had an ace of hearts onesie and Deuce had a two of spades onesie. They say that line of onesies were made based on the Queen of Hearts card soldier.

Ace was loud when he greeted you. Deuce was probably still embarrassed about the situation.

“You look so adorbs!” You said, purposely imitating Cater, and laughing. That made Deuce blush a little.

“HA ha ha. I know right?” Ace said, “But don’t think can escape from join us.”

“I would love to, but unfortunately for you, I don't have a onesie.”

“Are you sure?” Ace took out one of the things Deuce carried in one of the bags.

“OI!” Deuce protested. And Ace threw you a paper bag. Like a package that arrived in the mail. When you picked it up, you realized that by the softness, inside the bag there should be some kind of clothing.

You opened the bag while they took the snacks out of the bags and placed them on the table. And unfurling a gray onesie with a trifurcated tail, blue fire coming out of the cat ears and a black and white striped bow around the neck, which the zipper handle being a pendant.

“Don't just stand there looking at it. Go dress it before the party starts!”

“Party?! What party?!”

Ace had a mischievous smirk on his face.

“Sorry, (Y/N).” Deuce said, “I wanted to tell you, but they wanted it to be a surprise.”

“They? You mean there more people than you two who are involved in this?”

“Of course.” Ace said, “That thing was expensive. Who do you think we tricked to… I mean, who do you think offered to pay for the whole thing when he knew about it?”

You looked at him with a raised eyebrow. And someone else nocked at the door. Either it was a huge coincidence or a great timing. You put the onesie on the sofa and went to open the door.

Kalim’s greeting was as warm as always. He was wearing a red parrot onesie. He had his signature smile, until he saw your clothes.

“Oh, did we come too soon? Ace and Deuce haven’t arrived yet? I hope I didn't ruin the surprise.”

“Oh no. They are here. I just haven't put on my onesie yet.”

He sighed with relief “I got scared for a second. Then go try it one! I can’t wait to see how it looks on you!”

You smiled “Ok, I’ll go. After you enter.”

Kalim wasn't carrying anything, but the person who came in after him and greeted you had about three boxes stacked in his arms. You controlled your laughter because you knew he wouldn't like that. But Jamil looked so cute in his dark red snake onesie. You felt the need to say something.

“Don't be mad at me, but you look kinda cute on that.”

“D-don’t worry. I’m not mad” and he quickly balanced the boxes on one arm to pull the hood up to cover his blushing face with the other. “Thanks.” He whispered. That just made it worse. He was now even cuter.

You went to one of the empty rooms to change to your new onesie. When you returned to the lounge all the boys ware looking at you the same way, but Kalim was the one saying what probably all of them were thinking.

“Aw! You look so cute (Y/N)!”

“Myahaha. Looks like we find the perfect uniform for my hench-human.”

And before you could say something back, another knocks the door. You were so excited about seeing another NRC student in a cute onesie than you almost rush to the door.

OMG. Now it was Trey and Cater on a three of clubs and four of diamonds onesies. They'll tell you that the four card soldier onesies pack was on discount, so they took it. And of course, Trey brought one of his cakes. Like Deuce, Trey was a little embarrassed. But Cater...

“OGS, you look cuter that I thought! I need a pic of us (Y/N)!”

(OGS = Oh Great Seven)

They entered and after them… surprise of surprises:

“Riddle?!” It was already too late to try to sound less cooked. And he was wearing a red hedgehog onesie. “I-I didn’t thought… um…”

“Think, (Y/N), I didn't think.” He corrected you. maybe because he would anyways, or maybe to try to soften the soft blush that was already starting to form. “Well, since you always go to our unbirthday parties when invited, and sometimes even help preparing them, I thought the minimum I could do to show my appreciation was to attend to one of your parties.”

After he entered, something on the back of the onesie caught your eye. You weren't looking at that, swear! But that little round tail was so cute.

A few minutes later, new knockings on the door.

“Kalim?” You asked, “How many people did you invite?”

“Well, to be honest, I was thinking about inviting all the students at school. But Jamil said that you could not like that especially because it was a surprise party, so he suggested only invited the people you know.”

You smiled at Jamil as saying thank you.

“So I only invited… um, let me see… Jamil, Riddle, Trey, Cater, Leona, Ruggie, Jack, Azul, Jade, Floyd, Vil, Rook, Epel…”

Another knock interrupted Kalim’s list. Whoever it was from that list, it was better to open the door and fast.

Ruggie was wearing a hyena onesie. You were as happy to see him as he was to see you but... “Isn’t it a little bit… weird for you?” You asked.

“Hey! I'm a very loyal guy to my roots. Shehe.”

“That and Leona-senpai said it was either that or a lion onesie.” Jack said. He will revel to you that Leona was the one paying for Ruggie's onesie. and he wanted to buy the lion one for Ruggie, just to mess with him, but eventually Ruggie convinced him to buy the hyena one. Jack himself was wearing a dark blue onesie with little stars and little moons that glowed in the dark, what made you look confused and with a lot of questions at him.

Jack blushed. “L-listen, it's a long story. It was the only thing I had. I bought this a couple of years ago because of my little sister. I can explain it later...”

You didn’t saw anyone else with them. “Oh, what a shame Leona couldn’t come.” You say to Ruggie with a smirk on your face. Despite you really wanting to see him in a cute onesie, you know he wouldn’t do such thing.

And speaking of him, if you’re questioning why Leona would buy Ruggie a onesie just for that party. They made a deal. And Ruggie’s part of the deal was sneakily snap some pictures of your pretty figure on that cute onesie for Leona. And maybe he would save some copies to himself too.

Them entered and you saw that Ruggie’s onesie covered his entire back. So, his little tail was inside. Unlike Jack's tail, which poked out of his onesie and struggled not to wag like a happy dog’s one.

After the two of them entered the lounge, Ace started messing with Jack, and Ruggie started messing with Riddle because of they’re onesies. Nothing to make neither of them too mad, but it made you star worrying about other possible gests.

Not long after, you open the door again.

“Awww... why an azarashi-chan onesie? You should have got a Shrimp one.” Floyd whined. “Ne Jade?”

“He Floyd.” His Twin agreed “Oh, but you still look adorable on that direbeast onesie.” After Ruggie, it was no surprise seeing them on eels onesies. The funniest thing about their onesies was the feet getting out of the onesie while the tail continued a little further back.

But honestly, even more funny was Azul in front of them. Was he using an octopus onesie? Unfortunately for you, no. He was wearing a… business onesies! A onesie that looked like a suit. How did he even find one of those? You could have asked if you didn't just start laughing.

Azul looked a little upset about your laugh.

“I told you that one was stupid.” Floyd said. “You should have got a cute one.”

“I didn’t want a cute one.” Azul said back to Floyd, and then asked you: “Is there something wrong about the onesie I chose?”

“No, no.” You assured him, still giggling a little. “There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s just that I never saw a onesie liked that. I didn’t even know those existed.”

“I would rather see Azul on an octopus onesie myself as well.” Jade said with his signature smile that only the people who knew him knew it was a mocking smile.

“Absolutely not!” Azul reiterated. And as if trying to change the subject of the conversation. “Though, (Y/N), despite the preferences of my colleagues, I may say that you look wonderful in those clothes.” Oh, he tried to control the blush, but little did he know it was stronger than his wishes.

The Tweels smiled mischievously but didn’t say anything about it. Looking at them and thinking about the people that were already on the lounge, you realised something. You opened your arms in a signal for them not to enter yet.

“Wait, just… Can I please ask you something?” you opened your arms in a signal for them not to enter yet. But you quickly remember when you saw their, let's say, villainous smiles. You wanted a favor from the Fish Mafia, hum?

“Of course, prefect.” Azul said with his charming smile. “Anything you wish. You already should know that.”

There was only one thing you could use to your advantage when dealing with those three. And especially in this situation. They soften when their poor unfortunate souls are cute.

“Can you please not anger anyone? You know, teasing them about the onesies? I wanted everyone to enjoy the party.” You asked with only the necessary amount of puppy eyes.

“Anger anyone?” Floyd repeated, then smiled. “Is kingyo-chan here?”

Time to increase the puppy eyes, directed at both at Floyd and Azul. And while Azul was thinking you thought of a possible offer to Floyd. “I'll buy a shrimp onesie!”

Floyd’s smile softened and warmed. “Really~? And would you visit me with it dressed at Octavinelle whenever I ask you~?”

“Not whenever you ask.” You stood.

“And what if we set a maximum limit?” Jade said, as if that deal was of his interest as well. “Once a week maximum?”

“Once a month.”

“Twice a month” Floyd pouted.

“Fine. Twice a month maximum.”

“Okay~! What do you think Azul?”

“Um… Allow me to be the one selling the onesie to you, and we have a deal.”

You signed. “Fine.”

“It’s a deal then, my dear (Y/N). It’s always a pleasure to do them with you.”

If it makes you feel better, remember that you just made a dela with them while everyone wearing onesies. And little did Azul know he would be teased for his choice of onesie as well. At least Jamil had that to counterattack.

Next knocks on the door.

“Beauté! Oh, Trickster, your onesie is magnifique! Such clothing specially designed based on a close friend! What a wonderful show of beautiful bonds.” And Rook did it again, made you blush with his flourish. “Ah~” he whispered at you with a smile. “And of course, you could get even more beautiful.” He was wearing a light purple bear onesie.

“Rook, don’t spoil (Y/N) already with your complements.” Vil said. He was wearing a peacock onesie. He looked at you and smiled. “But I agree, it is a pretty cosy sight to behold. I even dare say you may look better than Grim himself.”

You smiled, still blushing. “Don’t say that in front of him.”

They entered and finally you see your fellow Pomefiore freshman. Epel was wearing a purple onesie with white lines with little drawings (like a Christmas onesie, but purple instead of red). But the biggest surprise was seeing him with his excited smile. You would think he from all people wouldn't like a party like this. I mean, it's kind of hard looking anything other than cute on a onesie. But he seems looking forward to the party.

“Ah! I love your onesie.” You tell him.

“Thanks! My grandma did it for me some time ago. I never had the opportunity to use it with other people wearing their own onesies too!”

“I also told him that he wouldn't need to worry about being the only one being called cute on this party.” Vil said.

“Oh! I'm eager to see what our dear schoolmates chose to wear on this night.”

“Um, Rook?” You ask before he continued followed the other two to the lounge.

“Oui?”

“I’m curious. Epel is wearing a onesie that his grandmother made. Vil is wearing, well, the animal that I most associated with him.” You giggle. “But I was wondering why you’ve chose a bear?”

He smiled at you. “I’m glad I picked your curiosity.” Rook had his, let’s say, hunter smile on his face. “Well, since you’re the host, I may tell you. You see, I always found fascinating by how a huge beast like a bear could turn into a soft and cute toy for children. Both an efficient predator and a fluffy friend. I thought it was a good fit for both the party and me. Wouldn't you agree, trickster?”

“Indeed.” you smiled, slightly worried.

Some minutes later, more knock on the door.

“HIII, prefect!” And you thought Ortho couldn't look cuter. He was wearing a magenta onesie with little horns, and with the ways he was moving you were able to glance a pointy tail behind him as well. He even changed his flames hair colour to match the onesie. “Wow! The Grim-san onesie is so cool! It looks so good on you.”

"Thank you. Your onesie is so cool too."

“Ha ha, thank you. They are from characters we really like. We thought it would be cool to matching clothes for this kind of party.”

“We? Matching?”

“And I’m already regretting that.” You heard a familiar deep voice saying somewhere outside.

“Ni-san! Come on, you said you wanted to show everyone how superior our onesies are.” Then he imitated Idia's voice. “There's no way those guys have better onesies than this. I personally upgraded mine from their standard self to accommodate my shut-in needs.”

“Fine, fine… you don't need to info-dump everything in one line of dialog.”

Instead of waiting for Idia to came out of his hiding place, you snick out your head to find him crouching to the wall close to the door.

“Heep! N-no need to jump-scare me.” He was wearing a onesie similar to Ortho’s, but his was teal, and the horns were longer than Ortho's. He was using the hoodie to hide his face, despite the long blue flames of hair that lit him. You could also see the pointy tail lying on the ground.

“Sorry.” Your eyes widened. “Your onesies are so cool! And the fact they’re matching is so adorable.”

Idia looked up at you, saw your cat ears with flames that match his own hair, and the ends of that same hair began to turn pink.

“(Y/N), could you help me convince my brother to enter the party. Please.” The please wasn't needed, he was asking you with his cute little brother's voice, and you existed heart couldn’t say no to that. That and you also wanted Idia in the party.

“Um… If I tell you some of the onesies others are wearing, would you feel more comfortable?”

“That could be considered a spoiler but… yah… If the game offers you some hint about the element of your opponent’s attacks, you’re a noob for not taking advantage of that.” And with it he at least got up. Making you be the one looking up.

“Let me see… Ace, Deuce, Trey and Cater are matching to. They’re card soldiers.”

“Um… I think I saw the pack online…”

“Riddle is a red hedgehog.”

“WHA-? Riddle-shi is here?! And on a hedgehog onesie?!”

“Right? I was as chocked as you.”

“Well, from the small sample my theory still holds.” Idia whispered with a smug smile.

“So, will you enter with me Ni-san?”

“Y-yes. I-I can go with you.”

Ortho happily thanked you and tugged his big brother by his onesie sleeve. After they entered you could see in both onesies a little pair of demon wings.

You were still waiting for someone else. But it seemed to be taking longer than the others.

“Kalim. Please tell me that you didn’t forget to invite de guys from Diasomnia.”

“I could swear I invited everyone… AH! That's what I forgot to tell Lilia in music club meeting!”

“What?! You didn’t invite them?!”

“Don’t warry, (Y/N).” Jamil said to you. “I made sure to go to the music club room after their meeting was over and I came across Lilia on the corridor. I can assure you that I informed him of the party.”

You could hug and kiss this boy right there and then and it shown on your eyes. “Oh Jamil, you’re the best!” he said it was nothing as he hid his face in his onesie's hoodie.

Despite that, you were only relieved when you finally heard another knock on the door. You open it with an expectant smile on your face and...

Nobody?

“Goodnight, (Y/N).”

“Aaaahh! Lilia!” you scold.

Lilia just did one of his popped out of nowhere upside-down things. This time appearing on the top of your door trim.

“Fuhuhu. Forgive me, but I couldn’t resist.” He said as he turned to land his feet on the floor. He was wearing a black dragon onesie, with fluffy horns and tail and a purple belly.

You looked at him, he looked at you.

“You look so cute!” you both said to each other at the same time. And while you were laugh it off, three tallest figures appeared behind Lilia.

They were all wearing the same black dragon onesies. The only exception was that Malleus' onesie didn't have the fluffy horns. Instead, there were holes on the hoodie specially made for his real horns take the place of the fake ones. He had his charming, delighted smile on. The smile he always has when he's invited for something.

“Indeed, that is certainly a flattering attire. Especially on you, Child of Man.”

“Thank you.” You smiled and blush. “Come on in! I want to see your onesies better.”

“HA!” Sebek yelled. “A human capable of understand the grandiosity of waka-sama to be willing to admire his figure in such admirable garment.” He was probably calling the onesie admirable because it was design based on the dragon form of the Thorn Fairy.

This also made a sleeping Silver standing next to Malleus wake up. He sighed. “I knew this onesie was too comfortable.” He was the last one entering the hall.

It was funny seeing Sebek so proud for using a dragon’s onesie alongside his Waka-sama. Seeing sleepy Silver on that onesie was one of the cutest sights of the night. But you also felt sorry for him because he was struggling more than usual to stay awake.

And Malleus, the warm way he was looking at you on your Grim onesie plus how cute he was on his, you suddenly felt like hugging him. He would probably like it. Sebek wouldn't.

You told them they could join the others on the lounge, and they started walking there. But you saw Malleus staying behind with you, and with a little help from Lilia, the other two didn't realise it. The moment they walked in the lounge you heard Sebek starting an argument with Ace about their onesies.

“Is something wrong, Tsunotarou?”

“Do you remember me giving you permission to touch my horns?”

“Yes.” And you already did it once or twice.

“I know they are part of your suit, but would you allow me to touch your ears?”

It took you a moment to finally answer with a wanna-be smug smile. “You can touch them, if you're willing to suffer the consequences for the audacity.” And you even dared to try to strike one of Malleus' powerful poses.

“Ha ha ha ha.” You successfully made him give you one of his genuine laughs. “Fine then. I have never been one to cowered over anything.” He got closer to you, reached out his hands and started petting your cat ears.

And while he was entertained by that, you hugged him. He widened his eyes looking down at you on his chest.

“The consequences.” You told him. What made him giggled and return the hug.

fuck it. ronance wedding headcanons

- they def had an unofficial lil backyard “wedding” with the party back in the 90s. like, jeans and tee shirts and 15 dollar rings and eat hot dogs around a fire pit unofficial

- they kept those cheap ass rings on 24/7, and when they finally rusted and crumbled and were absolutely unwearable they put them in nancy’s ballerina trinket box, the one robin’s still fascinated by after all these years

- when they bought their first house (they move to indianapolis so nancy can work for the star btw, i feel like robin would be some sort of counselor too?), the first thing robin did was take a big ol bulletin board and nail it right to the bedroom wall. for the next twenty years it became their dream board, where they’d pin magazine clippings of suits and dresses, rings and bouquets and venues, dreaming of the day it could be their turn for real

- they have a record player in their kitchen and play cheesy slow music, elvis and frank sinatra typa stuff, while they cook or eat dinner or do work at the counter. every time a song that nancy likes comes on she begs robin to slow dance with her, and she grudgingly agrees every time. and robin fucking sucks. tripping over nothing, not knowing where to look or put her hands, getting flustered at every little move her girlfriend makes. nancy jokes that robin better not be like this during their first dance, and robin grumbles back that she’d rather hire a stunt double than suffer through this (she secretly loves it tho)

- attending weddings is so hard for them. not that they’re not happy for the couples, but because they know they might never get one of their own. when they get. home from max and lucas’ wedding, nancy breaks down in robin’s arms, sobbing that it would be so much easier if she were straight. robin holds her tight and reassures her so gently, and after she calms down they pull out the stack of wedding inspiration books they’ve acquired over the years, put on an old rom-com, settle side by side on the couch and stay up until 3 am gushing over ideas

- in 2015, the moment the announcement comes out that the supreme court legalized gay marriage, nancy speeds home from work, like, 20 miles over the speed limit and finds robin on the front steps, sobbing her eyeballs out, a big dumb grin on her face. nancy gets down on one knee right there on the driveway, not caring that it’s pouring rain and she doesn’t have a ring and and she looks like she just stepped out of the goddamn upside down. robin drops to the ground in front of her and kisses nancy harder than ever before

- nancy wants a traditional wedding. robin wants fun and unique, none of that “old-fashioned bullshit”. they butt heads over it constantly during the planning process, but slowly grow to adore each others’ styles and compromise on every detail

the invitations ^^^ they have a cute lil spring wedding right before their 50th birthdays😇

robin’s suit n nancy’s dress ^^^ nance would absolutely be the typa girl to wear karen’s old dress and robin would want the most basic, no frills suit to ever exist

their shoes ^^^ robin can barely stand on her own two feet so heels were out of the question. nancy spent weeks and weeks learning how to embroider just so she could surprise her fiance with cute flowered converse at their bridal shower. robin cried

their hair ^^^ idk what to caption this with lol

their flowers ^^^ ruth n rose colors, Nancy thought it was fucking hilarious when robin suggested it so it stuck. the idea of robin in a boutonniere makes me drool too

the ceremony n reception ^^^ nance wanted to get married in a big white church like she saw in movies when she was a little girl, robin wanted someplace quaint and cozy to spend the night surrounded by her best friends. worked out perfectly

their rings ^^^ adorbs

the cake^^^ robin would 100% take nancy's last name bc she worships her wife and fuck stereotypes

^^^ i like to think steve jokingly suggests they serve ice cream, a lil nod to their scoops days, not expecting robin to adore the idea and immediately write it down

best men steve and jonathan ^^^ they wouldn't have bridesmaids cuz what other women do they need in their lives tbh👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

other stuff:

-being apart for like 3 hours while they get ready is torture. before the ceremony they do that first look thingy where they're standing back to back on opposite sides of a wall and they're holding hands and they're so nervous and giggly and then they do a countdown and peek around and both of them just stand there in shock. like they just watched the sky open up and an angel fall to earth. and then nance throws her arms around robin's neck and they start bawling cuz they realize their 20-plus-year dream is coming true UGH. when they step back robin runs a finger through nancy's curls and whispers how she's as beautiful as the first time she laid eyes on her and nancy melts

-they walk down the aisle hand in hand, exchange long sappy handwritten vows, and fall so perfectly into place when they kiss. it's like a scene from a disney movie. not dry eye in the damn building

-at the reception, there's lil charcuterie boards at each table, and they serve wood-fired pizza cuz it's what they ate on their first date (plus it's robin's fave)

-steve and jonathan bring the HOUSE down with their best men speeches. steve's is full of embarrassing jokes about robin that make her face turn red, and when he brings up how she peed her pants in the russian lab she jokingly (kinda) threatens to slit his throat. jonathan's is so sweet and tender and you can tell he still loves nance so so much

-after the speeches robin excuses herself outside and comes back 5 minutes later with a guitar. she plays a song she wrote for nancy. it's generous heart. because maya is robin in this world and doesn't exist and tbh i don't care. it's incredible

-their first dance song is first day of my life by bright eyes

-i hate ted and idk anything aboutt robin's dad so they don't get dances whoops

-nancy cuts the cake because robin with knives is a death wish

-the ice cream cart is a huge hit (steve brags about it for years). robin's a chocolate girl and nancy's a lemon sorbet lover

-they drink champagne and dance to 80s music until the ceiling spins. around midnight nancy grabs robin's hand and pulls her through the crowd to the balcony. they sway there together under the stars, foreheads pressed together, pressing an occasional kiss to the other's cheek. in that moment, they both agree nothing on their dream board could be as good as this

-ALSO instead of a honeymoon they take a road trip, driving route 66 to california, stopping to take pictures at every little landmark and singing at the top of their lungs for hours💘

Do you have any top tier horse yuri fic recs?

Hmm, i got a couple, lemme think

This one is a very sweet slice of life EG Sunset x Scitwi one, its got a lovely interpretation of the characters; With the expected but very welcome pairing of cool punk girl and adorable nerd. and i plan on doing fanart of it! The writer knows her stuff nyeheh =v= This is the best "Rarity and Applejack get drunk together and mushy stuff happens" Fic i seen out there, a trope that is surprisingly recurring, ive seen others like this! But this one is the best, hands down. A mutual of mine wrote it and its just a wonderful time! This one is a super fun horror esque rarijack fic where rarity is haunted and applejack tries to help her. its got fantastic prose and its just damn lovely! I've done fanart of it before, its a sweet one, and its also just a really interesting direction to take Rarity's character that i'm almost sad to not see more of. Overpowered rarity whennnn Although i don't ship twilight and trixie, this fic of this pairing, that is still ongoing, is fucking hilarious. The comedy has wonderful timing, and the takes on the characters are endlessly entertaining

Stay tuned to this wonderful fic of Rarijack anthros (Inspired by the ones i designed, too!!) 'cause its gonna have a sex sequel that i've already gotten a sneak peek or two of, and i'm frotthing at the mouth about it. biting things even (i sketched the cover btw!)

This fic isn't rly horse yuri but its 1000 words of Sunset Shimmer being the utter insane badass i always wished she was; and I will continue writing her like so. I'm glad to see another writer also concidered the same

If you're like me, and think that sex is funny, this fic and it's two sequels are for you. Sunset Shimmer throws a party of deranged proportions that ends in debauchery and indulgence that nearly destroys the fabric of equestria; and it's consequences are hilarious. This is a rly cute short trans rarity fic, and it has a delightful amount of rarijack within. utterly adorbs. Almost sad to see it so short! Finaly, i'd be amiss to not recommend the fics i've written myself; Here are my two biggest and most awesomest i've done: The Return of Midnight Sparkle Is a take on MLP where there is no EG universe, and rather, Sunset Shimmer is brought to the mane 6 per twilight's request, and she absolutely does not feel like she belongs, and its a narrative about her desperate attempts of fitting in; and dealing with the fallout of her failings. I put an inordinate amount of effort on this one, even drawing covers for each chapter. I went DERRANGED with the idea of "what if sunset shimmer was on FIM and also it was gay as fuck." i basicaly wrote an entire season of the show and its finale. If you're a fan of Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle as a pairing, cannot recommend enough. Here's some of the art i made for it. Insanely sick chapter covers im super proud of The Princess and the Peasant is an all you can eat buffet for Rarijack enjoyers, I've taken the baseline of the story of "shrek 1" and i made it about Applejack and Rarity; And also expanded upon it and fixed some of the annoyances with the og story (No third act misunderstanding! On the contrary. Third act understanding. SEX.)

Ted & Rebecca || if it's real, then darling let me know

HD makes it pretty :)

Hello everyone! :)

New fandom alert! Be prepared to be sick of me lol! :)

I've wanted to edit for these two for over a year now, but I was waiting until the show was finished to do so. Well, I think it's finished?

Hopefully, not because these two should've ended up together! literal soulmates. I don't care what some of the writers say. they're wrong lol

I didn't want my first Tedbecca edit to be an angsty one. I'm still recovering from the finale. I wanted something cute and fluffy.

This song is totes adorbs as well as the movie it came from (highly recommend btw) and I think it works perfectly for Ted & Rebecca.

For my first edit for them I'm pretty darn proud of the result! I hope you all will like it too! Enjoy some cute and fluffy Tedbecca :)

Dumb Question for the little league AU, does lil Lauren still have her funny strength when scaled down, or would she try to for intimidation but not have it yet. Like trying to break a hockey stick over the bench over and over to no avail.

Your stuffs adorbs btw, big props ^^

Hi :) Thank you for the question and for the kind words!!

I think she still has SOME kind of strength like that, but I think she’d mainly reserve it for when she’s playing the game. She’s very fast on the ice, and she’s very good at skating. Actually playing hockey is a different story. She never aims for the goal, she always tries to hit the puck directly at other people.

She DOES get up to some other shenanigans, though. They once had to call the fire department because she somehow managed to get herself on top of one of the ceiling lights, and she refused to come down.

Her main tactic is to just make up stories about monsters or bugs living under the ice to freak other kids out.

HIYA!! FIRST OF ALL I LOVE LOVE LOVEEE UR BLOG ITS SO ADORBS<3333 I REMEMBER SEEING THIS ACCOUNT BUT I NEVER REQUESTED ANYTHING 😭SO HERE I GOOO!! MAY I REQUEST SOME PEKOE (ANIMAL CROSSING) X FEM!READER FLUFF?? TY SO SO MUCH SHE'S LITERALLY THE SWEETEST SCRUNKLY WUNKLY EVER<3 ITS TOTALLY FINE IF YOU CAN'T DO THIS REQUEST BTW!!! HELP I GOTTA STOP BEFORE I EXPLODE/POS TYSM AGAIN ILY/P HAVE A GREAT DAY MUAHAHA<3 /P (^o^)~💖

YES ABSOLUTELY, TYSM LOVELY ANON

Pekoe/Fem! Reader Imagines:

Okay right off the bat, this girl is totally head over heels for you.

Like the little disaster sapphic she is.

When she’s reading or studying about plants in her journal sometimes she doesn’t even realize she’s been staring at you and sketching pictures of you at the top of the page.

And if you notice oh dear lord.

“Watcha doing there hon?” Pekoe hears over her shoulder, making her perk up as she recognizes immediately it's you.

“NOTHING!” She slams the journal shut as her face flushes red, you know however, as you tease her with a smirk.

Loves nature walk dates, especially in the museum.

Her favorite room is the butterfly garden, her head resting against your shoulder and holding your hand/paw as you two sit in silence on te fountain bench.

It’s a very much comfortable silence, however.

She will go on and on to you about nature and plant facts (if you let her).

“Oh my darling bud, did you know this butterfly and plant species is endangered? We must do everything to protect it!”

When you two started dating, she would become flustered just by your hand/paw brushing against hers.

Now she’s more used to it but still becomes flustered from kisses.

She can’t help it, you’re just so pretty!

Can’t believe she’s your girlfriend but will proudly admit it to other people.

“Oh (Name)? Yeah, they’re my girlfriend/partner!”

Emphasise on the girlfriend/partner part.

Thank u so much for the lore answer, I love the cotton candy sweetness of fluff but ima lil drunk right now, so i wanted to share a f-ed up question if that's okay, (you'r free to not answer if not,) but since Bo is so determined to like not fuck upnot be sent back n stuff what kind of stuff would he avoid doing around MC 4hat he used to do around his previous masters?

and like, if its related or not, i had this headcanon that im glad u gave some bo backstory for bc where it was like, wat would happen if he accidentally caused a accident with all his adorbs puppy energy, like he's playing tag with Jack or somethin and with Bos megahuge beach boy buff arms just knocks MC down the flight of their fancy imported italian marble stairs edged with silver (they say this as they're fallin down btw 'ah! Im falling down my fancy imported italian marblestairshks Im stupid)

but anyway yea they break something or get like super injured or something and ofc the ambulance has to be called and they're taken ro the hospital to stay for awhile, which sucks bc like ofc society looks down on hybrids so everyone is side eyeing this adorable zoo mansion bc they're lame and 1 brain celled and like "thats wat happens when u have a house full of wild animals they should be put down if u ask me" and MCs attitude is like a grim but professional "if i had both my arms Id beat ur ass bitch, wats ur @? Soon as this morphine drip is done its over for u hoes" but like they probably have a cast or somethin . Anyway MC's worried about the boys, and me the OP is worried about Bo bc like Trauma city would hit his brain harrd, and i dont even know if the other guys would be so forgiving and stuff bc i mean they Should they're a family, but that was two(2) flights of imported italian marble dude, fuck, why play football tag,, in the house?? And idk i just felt bad bc jack n Bo esp probably would feel double bad even tho MC loves him so much he's just a hyper guy, he cant help his zoomzooms, i dont/cant fathom wat he and the boys would do in this situation probably pack his one thing (an old mc shoe) ina rucksack n try to run away miserably or maybe 24/7 at the hospitsl despite all the nasty looks and comments bc they're hybrids or magbe even hiding away bc he absolutely believes that mc will send him away once they lock eyes again, but regardless of either of those things, if MC has to roll up to the house in that (yknow that spongebob character guy who was born with glass bones and paper skin ass Giant ass full body cast on rollers??) To go find that boy and over the grand table firmly tell them not to harbor any horrible thoughts about themselves or each other, bc it was an accident and about lovin them unconditionally and being a family, i might cry or somethinf, the table is also imported italian maple btw MC-s parents had a thing i think they fucked an italian architect guy, or somethin anyway i luv u, im gonna eat a burrito so let me know if u want any thing from the kitchen luv u

Lemme know if tuis text is broken up enough bc i skimmed over it and i was like this is like the stat wars openin or some shit i put gaps in

🖤

First of all, sweety, for me, take a sip or two of water, ok? And make sure you sleep on your side if you're still drunk by then, forehead kisses all around

Anyways, Bo would just mask everything that brings him joy by the time you adopt him. No bouncing, no stimming in general, no talking unless asked, no indulging in his hyperfixations or special interests, he even tries to limit his tail wagging. He's come to correlate his own joy with bad behavior so he's just straight up not him when you first meet him

Holy shit, this is good, but fuck man. Bo wouldn't know what to do with himself. Once the ambulance takes you away he thinks you died. He's in full shutdown, no talking, no eating, no moving off your bed and your scent

Jack would also be distraught, both because he was playing with Bo and because he cleans those stairs so often they're just a little more slippery from how clean they are. He stays with Bo most days, Rory coming in with meals to make sure they don't starve in there. Jack eats a little. Bo doesn't

Rory feels bad for Jack and Bo, he knows they didn't mean it and trusts Jack's recount of events. Nick keeps himself busy by visiting you in the hospital, Shaun wants to go too but since cat's are a popular allergen he's not allowed in unless he needs care. Ian goes as often as he can so he doesn't have enough time to plot Bo's death. Jean and Berry are pissed and openly talk about kicking Bo out. They know better than to talk about Jack like that with Rory around. Joseph is stuck as peace maker until you get back, making sure that no fights break out and they Jean doesn't poisons Bo's food with onions, not that he'd eat it anyhow

When you finally get home and tell everyone that you forgive Bo seeing as it was an accident Bo finally lets everything hit him and cries. He's on his best behavior the months following, you'll have to reteach him to drop his "good boy" mask and be himself

Omg omg omg omg hi. HELLO HELLO, I BECAME A RECENT FAN OF YOUR BLOG. I really like your art style(especially the lipstick one) LOLOL and your ocs are really adorbs. TUNA & FLOYD = forever. And congrats on your milestonnnesssss!!! You deserve it 💪

I've been shying about the idea of sending you a art request (The sea-side party one) , cause like what if I mess up on it and stuff BUT I've finally gathered enough courage to send you it. ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ

Please don't force yourself to do this particular request if you're not feeling like it btw!

Soooooo................... MY SECRET IS THAT I STILL DONT KNOW HOW TO SWIM :( I'm too scared of the deep waters 😬 so I'd probably just be sitting on my butt while drinking my coca cola! I would be wearing an extra large white T-shirt with blue swimming trunks and some sunglasses 😎 cause I look like a total boss with them on! My favorite color is Periwinkleeeee!!

I would be drinking my coca cola then suddenly, I would probably be flapping in the air trying to pull away from Floyd's strong grasp, HE WAS GOING TO THROW ME INTO THE OCEAN??!!

"Wait a damn second! Floyd LEECH, im bein serious! Don't betray me like this!!"

"Fugu-chan can't just sit around doin' nothing at a party as fun as this! >;D"

And then Jade would come up from the ocean and promise to catch me, obviously I wouldn't trust his cunning dumb ahh!

"Floyd is correct, please loosen up and have fun, Prefect-san."

"NOOOOO, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SWIM YOU ROCKHEADS."

"In that case, I promise I will catch you. Oh, and wouldn't you want your sunglasses back? They happened to fall while you were flailing around. :)"

"....... SOMEONE HELP A PERSON OUT! ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ"

Hehe... I'm so bad at drawing that I just used picrew to give you a more accurate picture of my oc...

Her name is Jessica, nicknamed Fugu-Chan by Floyd! Shes a very energetic individual... (No worries about the ooc-ness, I would still love the effort and your generosity for doing this request.. JUST LIKE CROWLEY BUT BETTER!!)

YOUR SO COOL FOR DOING THIS BTTTWW ♥️♥️♥️♥️💩💩💩💪💪💪

--- Despite all of Jessicas plans of staying on the shore and pleas to the leech twins, she somehow still ended up being dragged into the ocean.

"Ahaha~! Don't worry Jade is in there somewhere~" Floyd proudly remarked as he carried Jessica over his shoulder. The water was no longer shallow enough to see the bottom, no less see any sign of Jade nearby. Jessica clenched onto Floyd's back as she yelled "No way! No way! He's not even close! Just bring me back to shore!!!" Floyd rolled his eyes, letting Jessica's words roll through one ear and out the other. He finally stopped in his tracks and pulled Jessica forward enough to be face to face.

Floyd gave a pout and frowned "You really want to go back to the shore?" Despite Floyd's puppy-like face, Jessica was firm "YES." A sinister smile got rid of any sort of faux innocence the eel had tried to show "Too bad~" Without warning, Floyd chucked Jessica into the air towards the sea. She screeched with all her might as she braced herself for the water.

"My my, have you no trust in me at all?" Barely a toe in the water, Jessica peaked an eye open to see Jade somehow managed to catch her. Jade shed crocodile tears "I must say it's heartbreaking you belived we would abandon you here." Jessica blinked, still processing all that happened. At the sound of Floyd's maniacal laughter she finally came back to reality "You two!!! I'm going to barbeque you i swear! Don't you dare drop me!" ---

>V< Thank you for the kind words aaa you're submission was wonderful I appreciate your understanding sm!!! The way you wrote too was so fun to read I just had to play off of it too!!! >O< <3 Thank you for participating in the event I hope you enjoy!!! ^^

[R] Taichi | Cheerful Festival-goer

I still don't know what happens after death, but it'd be nice if we could spend every day happily and laughing over there! Lead Skill: Divertido Calavera (Funny Skull) Adlib Skill: Colorful Papel Picado

This card is from the scout of the event Day of the Marigold.

Translation under the cut

__________________________

Handmade Papel Picado - Part 1

__________________________

*Director's default name as Izumi

―Veludo Way (Evening)―

Taichi: Today’s classes were super tiring...

Tenma: You partied up all night with Kazunari, that’s why.

Taichi: I was just consulting with him about the preparation for the performance we’ll do at the festival of the dead!

Tenma: Then I take it you’re done preparing for that.

Taichi: Of course! It’s all perfect.

Kazunari: Tenten and Taicchan! Otsupiko! Back from school~?

Taichi: Oh, speak of the devil! Kazu-kun, you’re here~!

Tenma: Are you also back from university?

Kazunari: Yep yep! Btw, what was that about me earlier? Were y’all talking about just how sick and indescribably cool I am?

Tenma: Totally not.

I was just talking about how you and Taichi were so noisy last night.

Kazunari: It sure was a blast~! Should we party again tonight, Taicchan?

Taichi: Sounds good!

Tenma: Stop it! Just go to sleep.

Kazunari: Oh yeah, I was passing by the next town earlier, but it looked super festive with their prep for the festival of the dead~.

The garland-like they put up were totes adorbs! Apparently, they’re called “Papel picado”.

Taichi: Pa-Paper... Car dough...?

Tenma: ...Was that some kind of spell?

Kazunari: Papel picado! It’s the name of the decos for the fest!

Look, see! They’re something like a garland but with skulls drawn on it.

Taichi: Wahh, that looks so cute!

Kazunari: Ikr? I knew you would get it!

Tenma: They’re kinda creepy though...

Kazunari: You don’t get it, Tenten~! It’s the slight of creepiness that makes it super cool!

Taichi: Our dorm will look cuter if we decorate it with these skulls!

Kazunari: I super-duper agree with that! It’s a lit idea, Taicchan~!

Tenma: Hey! What’re you gonna do if we get cursed because of those!

Kazunari: You’re such a worrywart, Tenten~. It’s gonna be just fine~. Now that we’ve decided, let’s go and buy some materials!

Tenma: Huh? We’re going now!?

Kazunari: Well, duh! You gotta put your ideas into action A.S.A.P! Come on, Tenten~!

Tenma: I-I get it already, so let go of me!

―Lounge (Night)―

Izumi: I’m home~.

Taichi: Oh! Welcome back, Director-sensei!

Kazunari: Welcome backsies~!

Tenma: ...Welcome home.

Izumi: It’s kinda lively in here, huh.

Taichi: We’re making Papel picado!

Izumi: Pape-what...?

Kazunari: He meant the decos for the festival of the dead~. They’re a lil bit spooky and super cute!

Taichi: They’re something like this!

Izumi: Hehh... So they’re kinda like garlands? They’ve got many kinds of shapes, huh.

Kazunari: Peeps in our uni’s been talking about this festival of the dead, y’see!

Then I thought, “Let’s give our dorm a décor and have a party like the fest too!”!

Tenma: Isn’t the purpose of the festival being to hold a memorial service for the dead? You’ll get haunted for saying something like that just now.

Kazunari: Geez, again with that~. Tenten is such a scaredy-cat.

Tenma: I-I’m not scared...!

Taichi: We’ve bought this many materials, so all of us are gonna do it together!

Kazunari: Seems like it’s okay to draw whatever you want~. Director-chan’s gonna join us too, right?

Izumi: (Papel picado... Might be nice to experience the feel of the festival.)

Let me join you as well then.

Kazunari: OMG, this is getting fun! Let’s give our dorm a makeup with tons of skulls!

Tenma: Stop that! What’re you gonna do if we accidentally summon something weird!?

Taichi: I wonder what I should draw~?

=====Notes=====

The festival of the dead they mentioned refers to a Mexican holiday "The Day of the Dead" or in Spanish "Día de los Muertos", celebrated on November 1 and 2. The holiday involves family and friends gathering to pay respects and to remember friends and family members who have died. It is portrayed as a holiday of joyful celebration rather than mourning. The traditions are honoring the deceased using calaveras and marigold flowers known as cempazúchitl, building home altars called ofrendas with the favorite foods and beverages of the departed, and visiting graves with these items as gifts for the deceased. [wikipedia]

Papel picado with the meaning of “punched paper”, is a traditional Mexican decorative craft made by cutting elaborate designs into sheets of tissue paper. This delicate tissue paper signifies the fragility of life as it is ephemeral. You can see Taichi holding it in his bloomed card.

Handmade Papel Picado - Part 2

__________________________

Kazunari: What’s that, Tenten~?

Tenma: Hm? It’s obviously a skeleton.

Kazunari: EH! How so!? It doesn’t look boney at all!

Tenma: S-shut up! What about yours then?

Kazunari: Me? This is what mine’s look like.

I tried making it by imitating what I see, so it might be a little bit different from the real one~.

Tenma: ...What’s with the completeness.

Izumi: As expected from Kazunari-kun.

Kazunari: Thanksies~!

Taichi: Have you drawn something, Director-sensei?

Izumi: Hmm... Does this look okay?

Taichi: A flower! That’s really pretty~!

Izumi: Thanks. What did you draw? ...Is that a circle?

Taichi: Nuh-uh~! It’s a ‘senbei’!

Tenma: Why ‘senbei’ out of all things...?

Taichi: Hehe, it’s what my late grandpa liked!

At the festival of the dead, you welcome your deceased ancestors by offering their favourite things, right?

I thought maybe he’d come back if I give him my drawing of ‘senbei‘!

Tenma: Isn’t it better if you just offer the real thing rather than that-...

Hmnf-!?

Kazunari: That might be possible! What’s important is your feelings towards the other person, right? Feelings!

Tenma: -BWAH! Don’t suddenly close my mouth! I couldn’t breathe just now!

Kazunari: Sorry, sorry~.

Izumi: What kind of person was your grandfather?

Taichi: Let’s see~...

He was really strict in disciplining from holding chopsticks to table manners, and he always give me only 500 yen for New Year’s gift...

He often scolded me, saying that I’ll get punished if I leave even a single grain of rice in my bowl since there are gods residing in each grain.

He’ll mercilessly smack my head if I play a prank on him... Anyway, he was a really strict grandpa!

Kazunari: Dang, that’s crazy!

Tenma: But what he said is not entirely wrong.

Taichi: Yeah... Besides, at the end of the day, he played with me whenever I came back for holiday!

I was always looking forward to eating the ‘senbeis’ together with him in the house.

That’s why I loved my grandpa who’s strict but kind so much!

Izumi: I see... Those are some nice memories you got there.

Taichi: But like you said, it’s just a circle.

I guess it’s too hard to express ‘nure okaki’ in a drawing, huh...

Izumi: (It wasn’t simply just a ‘senbei’, but a ‘nure okaki’...!)

Kazunari: You’re aiming too high, Taicchan!

Tenma: ...Speaking of ‘nure okaki’, isn’t that what Sakyo-san likes too?

Izumi: Now that you mention it...

Taichi: You’re right! Gramps’ strictness is also kinda similar to Sakyo-nii...!

They're both more or less stubborn old men too!

*door opens*

Sakyo: ...Who are you calling a stubborn old man?

Taichi: !?

Izumi: S-Sakyo-san...!

Kazunari: Yikes! What a timing~!

Taichi: U-um, oh! That was a figure of speech just now!

I-I love my grandpa, but I also love you too, Sakyo-nii!

Sakyo: ......

Kazunari: Damn, look at that pressure from Frooch-san~!

Tenma: Just shut your mouth.

Izumi: Uh, um... Sakyo-san...

Sakyo: ...Hahh, don’t even try to flatter me.

Taichi: I really meant those words as compliment! And I really do like you, Sakyo-nii!

Sakyo: I get it already, so let go. You're hugging too tight.

Taichi: Oh, I know! How about you and I draw ‘nure okaki’ together? It’s pretty hard to draw it differently than ‘senbeis’~.

Sakyo: I refuse.

Taichi: Don’t say that~! Come on, Sakyo-nii!

Kazunari: I’m so jelly that Taicchan and Frooch-san are so chummy with each other~!

Should we mess around like them too~?

Tenma: No way we’re gonna do that! Geez...

Izumi: (Everyone sure is having fun. I hope the performance for the festival of the dead will go well at this rate.)

Story Clear!

=====Notes=====

Senbei is made from non-glutinous rice “Uruchi Mai (うるち米)”. The main ingredient of Okaki is glutinous rice “Mochi Gome (餅米)”. And these crackers usually have a pleasant crunchy bite in common.

However, there is an exceptional variety of Senbei and Okaki, which isn’t crunchy at all. They have a soft, moist, and chewy texture. For the texture, the exceptional type of Senbei and Okaki has the word “Nure (ぬれ)” meaning “wet” in their name. [source]

Senbei are large and flat disks, whereas okaki are smaller and puffed. [source]

I CAN'T UNSEE BALD KIKU. (He still looks adorbs in your style btw). Lol Yes I meant face and body. I was thinking mostly because it is often seen as professional and hygienic to be clean shaven. (Even if it really isn't). Mostly that he wants to live up to those standards due to being easily influenced. But it is interesting to hear your perspective!

TYSM 🌹 i love to spread the baldpan agenda (no)

also ahhh i see i see :3 yeahh I see where you’re coming from, I can see him shaving his face if he grows facial hair (which imo he probably doesn’t get a lot of in the first place) but honestly yeah East Asian (men) don’t really shave (bodies) much esp because we just don’t grow. that much hair. Or well I should say THEY don’t need to shave much because my genes are very north/inner asian lol but anyways! I confirmed with two Japanese friends and although no nation is a monolith, it seems it’s generally like that there as well?

Honestly i think our Japans differ quite a bit anon kjdlfghf I mean live your truth! But I don’t personally think he’d be that easily influenced 😅 I definitely think he’d conform to standards of etiquette and so on and so forth, but more out of a sort of pride and out of generally being invested in etiquette and professionalism, but in terms of being influenced… well, I’ve always seen him as more of an opportunist. He’ll accept influence if it’s beneficial to him, but he’s quite shrewd about taking what he needs and leaving the rest. My reasoning has two parts (the next part is just explaining why I think he’s not that easily influenced JKFLDHGJFLDH SO FEEL FREE TO STOP READING HERE… I’m not trying to be mean I promise wawah)

Firstly, Japan has had quite a few isolationism periods in history, and for a variety of reasons it’s also relatively less influenced by China, the power centre of the time, because the ruling class were able to start and stop Chinese influence through either establishing or cutting off relations with according to convenience. They were very good at localizing and absorbing cultural influences, which I read a pretty interesting paper about (The China of Trade and the China of the Mind, by Wild): basically the premise is that over the course of the the Tokugawa period from the beginning to the isolationist era to the forced end, successive scholars and leaders were nonetheless able to communicate with China in order to gain that outside scholarship, however they were also able to control what parts of China’s culture and art and scholarship (etc etc) were being imported, and ultimately edit and assimilate what was useful and discard the rest. In my opinion, although it is fairly significant, overly emphasizing China’s cultural hold on Japan (which is the first thing I think of when it comes to the idea of Japan being easily influenced) can fall into two traps: firstly it plays into a sinocentric narrative that views surrounding nations as mere satellites building upon what China has given them, rather than viewing them as individual nations with their own indigenous cultures and histories, and secondly playing into narratives that overemphasize Chinese imperialism in Japan as a way to unfairly place Japan on the same level of victimization as countries actually colonized/subject to coercive Chinese imperialism such as Korea or Vietnam, which can be used to obfuscate Japanese imperialism and the later shift in power dynamics which still influences present day.

Secondly, I think overemphasizing Japanese conformity can fall into traps of orientalism. Citing Japanese adoption of American and western systems/culture is a little unfair as well, when it comes to the modern era the influence is in large part due to the military occupation which should be treated more carefully imo, while the Meiji-Taisho era of westernization was both a) a necessity and the result of an inherent power indifference between Japan and the west, who had briefly forced unequal treaties upon them and b) something done actively, not so much to fit in as to improve and modernize for Japan’s own benefit.

I suppose I see him as someone… flexible? Sorry for citing another paper, but one of my current favourite works, an essay on Sinophilic fiction in Meiji Japan, ends on a note that’s basically like… discussing how Japan was able to use its role as periphery to have a greater sense of flexibility than the power core, which is what allowed it to develop and surpass China and Korea as well in the 19th and 20th centuries, however in its quest for power and colonizing its ‘cultural ancestor’ of sorts, it lost that vital flexibility. A part of itself. I think that’s kind of (apologies for my wording, it’s late and I’m tired) that’s kind of moe… Mr Kiku has been flexible in the past, but it’s a conscious flexibility, a cunning flexibility. This has gotten a little off track tho! in terms of body hair I think he’s pretty regular about it lol like I don’t necessarily see him as someone who would want to rebel in the first place with regards to etiquette. It’s more indicative of his values system imo

Anyways, thank you for your asks and for clarifying! I’m happy to see other thoughts on Japan, that’s what I made that post for after all dkljghf I hope this doesn’t come off as too argumentative, I really don’t mean anything by this outside of wanting to explain why I disagreed in the context of conversation, and because I like talking too much lolol
