Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
so in recent hgsn chapters, we've got 'hikaru' acting real unusual, more than normal. the first time it happens is a bit after hikaru pulls out "half his insides", the 2nd is a more drastic version, hikaru does his eye thing (whether its mentally or physically) in the same way he previously did to asako where he admits he thought he should kill her, the only difference is his eyes beforehand. the third time happens again very soon after the second, hikaru now seemingly completely different. we'd probably guess he's not in control, but i want to say he doesnt even remember these events.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so first off im gonna talk abt hikaru lying. obviously, we've got 'hikaru' being introduced lying about his identity, the entire 1st vol revolves around the revelation and how both boys react to it. hikaru tries his best to act as hikaru and is very upset when he's found out. they get over it and yoshiki is now in on the secret,
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
our 6th month old ghost-god-boy's got terrible social skills for certain situations, dismissing certain concerns, laughing things off, reacting in an extreme, not normal way, or sheepishly not wanting yoshiki's disapproval. he clumsily struggles to follow yoshiki's reasoning why murder is bad and at that point already gleans that yoshiki probably wont like an admission of "yeah, i killed the neighborhood grandma",
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
hikaru's probably being more anxious about yoshiki's perception of him than his act morally, therefore he avoids telling the truth, he also spends half of ch 16 stressing over yoshiki's reaction. asako flat out says she wished to speak to the spirit, and hikaru literally doesnt react to that at all outside of thoughts about himself, and is still just a little guilty talking abt it later on.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
hikaru did gain a bit of confidence before yoshiki momentarily gave up on him, or calms down at least to be able to suggest showing his inhuman qualities to yoshiki again, but isnt clear in what he says he'll do, once again freaking yoshiki out, even though it supposedly did help him against other spirits. hikaru's probably got a tied "love" of yoshiki and absorbing things, and got a little greedy, still not understanding how to even broach the request.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
my point with all this is that he usually feels guilty, or some sort of emotion, about his actions, especially in regards to yoshiki and that does show he remembers what he's done. but in contrast to those moments, on this page where yoshiki asks him why he went to his door, hikaru cant come up with an answer. hikaru, who gives a dopey smile to asako once again accusing him of not being human, doesnt show a hint of hiding a secret for going to yoshiki's house before. hikaru looks more confused at even trying to recall what yoshiki's referencing, as if yoshiki asked him abt some unimportant comment from long ago
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
hikaru marvels at yoshiki's soul, and is very sure he doesn't want yoshiki to die, and even includes asako in his thoughts, and becomes extremely upset at the thought of yoshiki dying.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
later, after hikaru decides to prove himself to yoshiki, he got his head lopped off by a special ghostbusters sword, and has a scar duct tape apparently cant fix, so i wonder if because of this he cant balance his body too well and is acting too much like his original, spirity self, viewing yoshiki first as only soul, not even with a body, maybe in the same way the other spirits view humans?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
anywayss, hikaru's said he cant quite remember his role as a being and what he even did before, hence yoshiki carrying their ghost project, but also, before, he at least acted in yoshiki's defense. he declares he'll protect yoshiki and uses his funky eye to be all ghosty, but now he does it in a different way completely, the eye making a diff shape. yoshiki might become a snack instead of hikaru's wish and hikaru might not even remember what happened

Chapter 698 isn't the only chapter that is a love confession. The first love confession between Sasuke and Naruto is clearly shown in the first arc itself. First arc guys.
First.
The whole protecting each other and saving each other back and forth is pretty consistently shown in the first arc and it serves to develop their dynamic.
Tumblr media
It is a statement of power, ability and evolution in strength. But it has an underlined emotion as well. So much so that it becomes the central emotion of this entire arc. To be motivated to protect your most precious person.
Tumblr media
Sasuke protects Naruto from the bad guys without compunction and teases him on top of it. Lol. It hurts Naruto's ego and solidifies his resolve to quit whining and be courageous. Sasuke, as is his wont, gives Naruto the inspiration he needs to be the strongest ninja ever, closer to his goal of becoming hokage.
Fast forward.
Tumblr media
Lol, Naruto was so proud that he came to Sasuke's rescue given it was Sasuke coming to his earlier. But Naruto is Naruto, my sweet idiot.
Tumblr media
Poor Sasuke is so exacerbated, lol. Although, there's just absolutely no one else Sasuke talks to like this, openly and without reservation. Yelling and swearing, veins popping. Anyway.
And then what happens at the end?
Tumblr media
Sasuke comes to his rescue again and this time, Naruto isn't able to believe it. What's the difference between before when Sasuke rescues him and here?
Simple. He sacrificed his life. Naruto thought Sasuke was just showing off before, or was just trying to rile him up, but now he knows that Sasuke wouldn't have gone this far just to tease him.
This boy with a very clear objective of his own, gave up his life for a boy who was clueless about Sasuke's own feelings. But now Naruto knows that Sasuke cares for him very deeply. They were both secretly harbouring complicated, inexplicable feelings for each other but couldn't really figure it out. But this arc makes them figure it out at least partly. They both finally realize how much they really care for each other. Sasuke remembers all those moments regarding his feelings for Naruto (including the 'accidental' kiss) at his moment of death.
Tumblr media
Sasuke says - I hated you.
What he really means is - I loved you.
Tumblr media
Naruto thinks - I hated you too.
But we know he never did.
So what he really means is - I loved you too.
And this is the first arc. Like it's so obvious they couldn't possibly have hated each other when one of them evolved his kekkei genkai and then died for the other. And the other one also unleashed a new beastly strength after this event that tied up the conclusion of this arc. They might not have known the full extent of how exactly they care for each other, at least, not in the case of Naruto. But at this point, when he almost lost Sasuke, he realizes that he felt quite deeply about Sasuke all along as well.
Hate doesn't really mean hate here. Kishi couldn't have made them say 'love'. And it's understandable that it would be a little too awkward for preteen boys to have said I love you to each other. So this is actually subtext. This is what we get and it fits.
And all this is why this panel below makes sense.
Tumblr media
So awkward. Lol.
They just admitted their feelings for each other to themselves and each other. This is where their feelings of deep care and affection for the other are solidified. And so now they are clueless as to how to go about it. At this point, they are still far away from giving their feelings a name. But the rest is pretty clear to them. That all that animosity and rivalry between them before this was just smokescreen to hide their true feelings from each other and themselves.
And after this, something shifts between them slightly. Now, Naruto doesn't get so much mad at Sasuke teasing him but takes it in good, gamely spirit.
Tumblr media
They even flirt. And Sasuke acknowledges him and his strength freely.
Tumblr media
So cute. And so cleverly written. Kishi ain't foolin' around. He made them kiss in the third chapter, right at the beginning of the First Arc, right after he introduced Sasuke and then made them say the kid version of 'I Love you' at the end of the arc, at the highest emotional beat in the entire arc, everything built up to it. Heh. That's how you write an arc.
Yeah it's not a mystery. Sasuke and Naruto love each other. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Psssssssst. Hi. I wish to know about ur au with the Injured Messenger I am extremely intrigued. Dead people hell yea
YAY! INTEREST ABOUT MY CHILDREN! This is a very long post cos I ramble a lot lmao
So my au starts with a bunch of sky kids falling down from the stars (presumably after eden) and a new moth joining them, one of the sky kids crashes into the moth, and knocks them wildly off course, causing them to crash into wasteland.
After crashing into wasteland with no idea what they're meant to be doing, the moth, who I like to refer to as "Local Baby", ends up wandering the outskirts of wasteland til they come across darkness. Before realising what it is, they're initially fascinated, finding it beautiful, until their sky kid instincts kick in and they realise "oh this stuff is probably bad". (This is another theme I want to explore in this au too, about how darkness can be beautiful, and how not everything to do with darkness is inherently evil, but that's just a want rn)
Thats when they realise something is under the darkness, they pull at the darkness with their hands (too baby to know how to use a candle yet) until the something is revealed, a dormant spirit (Messenger). Since they dont know how to use a candle (and quite frankly have no idea whats causing their new friend to be made of stone, only that "yay new friend :D") they attempt to wake them up, fail, and just kinda, lie down next to them and fall asleep.
Sky kids, unlike spirits, are a powerful source of light. Even without candle use, kinda sitting next to one for 8 hours is good enough to wake up a spirit. So Messenger wakes up. Initally confused about why they were face down in the dirt, they turn to see the Local Baby staring at them. At first they're like "A child??" before realising "A SKY KID????"
They question why (and how) the sky kid got there, until they realise what happened. This sky kid has just been born, has no clue what anything is, and most importantly, has no wing level.
This is where lore gets interesting for spirits and wing levels. Spirits can fly, but their method of getting wing levels is different than sky kids. A sky kid gains winged light by recollecting their memories, either of past lives they no longer identify with (like our moth here) or simply re-remembering memories they already know (like how our sky kids work). These memories show up in physical form to them as Winged Light, but spirits cant see them.
Spirits gain wing levels differently. Spirits gain wing levels via sky kids, specifically, sky kids who fall down from the stars not fully formed, or perish on the fall. Kind of like being stillborn, or not simply dying shortly after birth. Spirits can absorb the high concentrates of light these sky kids to gain a wing level (this act being referred to as catching stars), but this is very rare, especially in places that don't see as much light (ie wasteland and forest).
Messenger ends up freaking out and realising they still have stuff to deliver, and they cant dilly dally, until a sharp pain strikes them in their stomach and they fall to their knees, remembering "OH YEAH I GOT STABBED BY A SPEAR". Local Baby notices and goes up to them, touching them, and the pain seems to fade. They assume that, the sky kid healed them using the power of light (they didnt) and thank them. In reality this was just Local Baby viewing Messenger's memory, like in the actual game.
Since Messenger needs to deliver things to Vault anyway (a neutral zone from the war) they decide to take the baby along, so they can get somewhere safe where they wont have to worry that someone will take this baby and harvest them for their light.
After this my ideas for this au are a lot less set in stone. I have some general plot beats set out, Messenger and Local Baby walk for a few days until hitting an abandoned outpost, taking an old boat they find, and flying it over to the temple where they arrive from the left (a usually cloud blocked area in game). Messenger sees the aftermath, wound hurts again, Baby helps. They get into vault, some other sky kid accidentally reveals to Messenger that they're dead, they try not to cry. Baby gets their first WL maybe, stuff happens from there idk. They also probably got krilled at some point, well, almost krilled (Yay Messenger for saving their child!!)
As well as some other general lore, like Sky kids eating light as food (and also just fucking biting down into candles sometimes cos i think thats funny), Local Baby only remembering how to get their candle out after getting a WL (because WL are memories and they have no memories nor braincells). Messenger not eating at all because they're dead and not realising cos they're too distracted with the child and/or assuming the sky kid did this to them (things aren't really known about sky kids, so they just kinda go along with it). Sky kids needing to light each other to understand each other, but spirits being able to understand just fine. A lot of minor stuff really I guess.
Tumblr media
I'm also currently in the middle of doing some art of them in wasteland because I love them!

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear LN thoughts!
Tumblr media
Okay so I thought for my first LN post, I'd do Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear! Which is one of my favourites! I don't know how in depth I'll go for spoilers sake, and because there are 10 volumes (in English so far), but I'll cover just what it is I like about the series. First off! Our protagonist, Yuna. She's a cute, sarcastic overpowered girl in a bear onesie. Originally from our world, in Japan, Yuna was a high school drop out who stayed at home all day, playing her MMO's and living off (Super successfully I might add) trading stocks and making loads of muns (Money. for those not used to how i talk.) She kind of didn't care for anyone or anything besides making muns and playing her game. One day... Well my interpretation of it anyway, One day an annoying god infiltrates her game after an update, and offers her a bear onesie with busted stats. Which she reluctantly accepts, and then suddenly finds herself, in this onesie, in a totally different world, suddenly as herself, not her game avatar. From here she figures out that yeah, this is an actual real fantasy world with magic and monsters.... and she's stuck in this bear suit, because otherwise she's way too weak to do anything. She soon runs into Fina, who will become her super best bud in this new world. She starts to actually enjoy herself, and the story starts being about Yuna starting to actually care about the people around her (Though she always maintains her smartass persona) and she starts gradually establishing herself as an adventurer, using her bear gear..... and bear items.... and bear magic..... Yes it's all going to be bears. Which really doesn't help with her whole "I don't want to stand out!" thing. She also starts making a name for herself as a merchant and trader, using her knowledge from her old world to an extent. She also later gets to stick it to some aristocratic jerkbags, which is really satisfying, but I wont get into that too much for spoilers sake. Quite a lot of this series is Yuna shows up, helps some people, gets some sweet new thing out of it, and takes it back home to use in one of her businesses, and then does some cute stuff with Fina and the rest of her cast of girls. Yeah, it's kind of basic, but I have a lot of fun reading it. I reeeeally like this series.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you can't tell from all these! I'm going to do just a brief comparison between the anime and the LN here. I personally of the two would suggest you read the LN if you can. I mean the anime was still fun and cute, but it did some stuff i didn't like. It added drama where there was none, and also toned down some stuff that didn't need to be. For example. When Yuna heals Tiermina. (I know her name was different in the anime but I only remember what it was in the LN) I recall in the anime, it's like. Weirdly dramatic. In the LN Yuna does it basically effortlessly and in about 10 seconds. And she's immediately "Huh? I feel... fine now?" And that's that. No drama. That was just one instance. I also remember there was a whole non canon episode where there's some sort of argument at Fina's house and Yuna and Fina go off to look for a... feather? Flower? Something like that. Anyway. It doesn't happen. It was made up for drama! As for stuff in the anime being toned down compared to the LN... Yuna is totally fine with just dropping people down holes repeatedly to break their legs and spirit. And that guy who was embezzling muns from Cliff? Well he was also like, a kidnapper, murderer. All sorts. Yeah i know. Make the bad guys as bad as possible yeah? Anyway. Cliff super executes the guy. I think in the anime, they just imprison him or something. They also tone down how sarcastic Yuna is in the anime, which is pretty disappointing! Not to get on all the little details they sort of skip over in the anime. The LN is just a better experience! Though the VA for Yuna is exactly how I thought she'd sound. So good job there! The ED is super cute too.
Anyway! If you're after a LN isekai series with a cute OP girl where there is no overall dark end of the world plot, or big bad guy or drama at all really, you should consider this! It's a good, stress free time. Just be ready for bears. Lots of bears. Like the word bear is almost definitely on every single page at least once. Bear. Sure it's not the most complex series ever made. The good guys are obviously only good, and the bad guys are always irredeemable so you're not too worried about the bad things that happen to them. But hey. It's a fun time. Read Kuma Bear. I might do like, actual posts on plot and such when new volumes come out and a re-read the series again! Which might actually be soon as I got an email the other day to say volume 11 is on it's way. End!

Personal headcanon for (my) coaster character’s logic on closing times
Because I must ramble somewhere and google docs wont cut it today lads.
WARNING long ass post I’m sorry
But I was thinking, People with coaster characters would often have some protocol for characters they make when the coaster doesn’t exist anymore. Some i seen form some counsel of fallen rides to help the other rides in whatever efforts one would need to. Others go into retirement, where they stop being ride spirits and live normal lives amongst the human race (usually). Some are killed off and others just ignore the fact the coaster hasn’t existed in several years all together for one reason or another.
So, questions for me to answer...
A) What happens to my characters when a ride no longer exists?
I was pretty quick to answer this ages ago with “They are dead (unless I have some stupid reason why they aren't dead that is entirely separate from the status of said ride and more into the original character aspect of it).” Or at least, that was what I would assume with a ride that has been dismantled.
But I was thinking about the recent events regarding El Toro in Six Flags Great America and realized my second question I should answer.
B) If a ride isn’t dismantled completely but isn’t operating at the moment, what does that mean for the character?
Perhaps it may be easier to say “Nothing per say has to happen. Things only happen when a ride opens and when a ride ends for good,’ but as soon as I thought this question my brain got to work on another answer so here we are...
So for every day the ride is operating, compare it to a work day (I myself have to still go into specifics on what rides do for the park outside of “protection of the park” but that's for another time). The ride is doing it’s expected thing and so is the character. They are both working. Everything is normal, fine and dandy (physically anyways. I can do whatever I want to with them mentally). Simple enough.
And like a work day, the shift eventually ends and one is able to clock out. When a park closes its doors for the night, the “shift” ends. They can now do whatever the hell they want with their lives. Maybe they are more tired and have more of an inclination to sleep, but that may depend on the state of the ride, theming of the ride (+ personal interpretations of theming), and whatever the hell I as the creator wanna do to them during that time. However, closing time doesn’t mean a decline in health because, like the work day, it too is normal. It’s doing the expected thing of the ride, which is not being active at night.
Basically, a ride going by it’s expected schedule means nothing too out of the extraordinary is happening with the character
Same goes for any special holidays or off seasons. Those are booked into the calendar, so a ride “standing but not operating” during those times still means everything is fine to the character that are inspired by the rides, because the ride is.
Now....what if the ride isn’t working correctly WHILE the park is opened?
Starting with the least severe case....delays in opening. Delays that aren’t note worthy.
It’s exactly like if one was late to work. I have not dropped the job allegories sue me. If you are late to work once because you overslept and traffic was bad, it may worry you, the employees or the manager for a small period of time but chances are you wont be remembering this isolated incident (unless the reason you were late to work in itself was noteworthy). However, if this is a pattern it may begin to worry you or the employees. Same exact thing for rides. If they are late to open it may bug whoever wants to ride it but it won’t be something they remember for the rest of their lives, unless either the reason it is delayed is noteworthy or it happens so often it’s apart of the ride’s reputation. And if it is a pattern, something’s probably wrong over there. It’s a very small chance it’s anything (directly) (immediately) life threatening, though.
So what if the ride experiences a small issue that closes the ride for just a moment in the middle of the day? For example, someone puked on the ride so it may take a few minutes to clean that up, or the winds are a bit strong for that time. It is most certainly opening again, though. AKA: Delays.
....that just means the ride needs a break. Maybe THEY puked and need to get that sorted. Who knows. But they are probably going to get back to work soon.
And if the ride has to close early? Perhaps it malfunctioned and maybe an incident happened that will get cleared up by tomorrow. That just means the Character has to leave early. For example, the workday ended early for Batman: The Ride at Six Flags Over Georgia when these two incidents happened (tw: death, decapitation). However, Batman: The Ride is alright to continue on the next day as usual. Same goes for if it begins to rain at the park; everyone’s workdays are ended early. Think of it like you would any weather emergency.
The ride has to stay open for longer for some reason? The character experiences overtime. 
All of this under the assumption that after the issue is resolved (relatively soon), things will go back to their regular scheduled programming.
.....So what if it doesn’t?
What if it DOESN’T go back to it’s scheduled programming the next day? What if there IS something wrong?
Using the work analogy once again, these are off days. Sick days, Maternity leave, Emergency, Vacation Day...There are technically an unlimited number of these days in the coaster universe but after a certain time one must be at least a BIT concerned. 
Basically, if the ride won’t be opened for an extended period of time but is a) planned to reopen sometime, b) otherwise never state the ride is shutting down permanently and c) actually reopens eventually, something is going on with the ride character and I can decide what. Did they lose their possessions? Are they so busy with a side project they don’t focus on.....ride work? We going with that? Ok cool. Are they sick, physically or mentally, or did they get injured? Have they been arrested by the police? This may be influenced by the context of what closed the ride down for the period of time or by whatever I feel like fits the character or story I may be trying to tell. 
Note: If a police investigation is involved in the irl incident, it probably is in the coaster-verse too. Not a rule but it does happen frequently.
The longer a ride remains closed but not officially shut down permanently, the worse the scenario may be. It could be terminal illness, or depression got so bad one can’t get out of bed, or they have been jailed, or perhaps they just haven’t bothered to “show up” anymore. 
So some examples~
Nemesis at Alton Towers is getting refurbished most likely during the 2023 season, in which Nemesis will be Out of Commission. However, assuming the refurbishing is done by the 2024 season, Nemesis the character is here to stay. This could be taken in story as, say, a surgery being done + the recovery season.
After the Smiler Crash in 2015 (tw amputations), Alton Towers legally couldn’t reopen the smiler until they got their shit together. The character at this time was probably arrested and serving time (which to be honest this guy needs jail time eventually have you SEEN the Smiler lore?!)
Calling back to the El Toro Incident, it could be taken as either “El Toro got sick in the 2021 incident, thought they were better, and then got sick again” or “this motherfucker is being investigated hard by police right now.” 
And maybe, if they haven’t shown up in a while, or if they are running but aren't worth maintenance costs, or if something so bad happens they have no other choice....
There are two options that are independent of the ride itself and mostly dependent on the character or story.
They either
A) Were “fired”/”Quit”/Otherwise lost their “job.” Why they did and what they do afterwards may vary, but basically this character isn’t the park’s issue anymore
or (sometimes and)
B) They died. How they did may vary. Though they are, in a sense still alive because the ride is up (soooo... undead...)
And for dismantlement.....certain death sentence. If it wasn't official it is now. But that’s what I already said at the start. Doesn’t matter if this happens in off season.
So now some Funky Exceptions because this still doesn’t cover everything.
Alton Towers is cryptic as hell and Duel: The Haunted House Strikes Back had this much to say on it’s operation. Because it is unknown what the hell is happening to duel at this time, it is also unknown where the hell Duel is in the canon storyline of whatever the hell im doing with my life at this point, Though I’m personally going for “Duel had something feeding onto him and wants to take over his body which may render him unable to shoot his laser guns.” The result on this physically? Who knows. The result on him mentally though is tremendous.
What if a ride is taken down and put back up again? I know Enterprise at Alton Towers does this a lot (can you tell I like Alton Towers yet?) which means I can now add in necromancy, frankenstein-ing and other shit like that to my coaster characters! Yes, Dr. X (The name for my (Alton Towers) Enterprise Character) disassembles himself like a Roblox character and then reassembles himself, what of it?
Though on the note of Enterprise, apparently there are markings around the ride. Some people say it will make room for another ride, others say Enterprise is just going to be moved. Speaking of, What the hell does it mean if one is disassembled to move elsewhere in the park? ...They moved stations. Or moved parks, which is the equivalent of moving to another location for the same “job.” 
But what if it is rethemed? Character development. Perhaps it is still doing its job alongside, though if not then perhaps the character development was a bit much.
What the hell is up with Six Flags New Orleans, or in other words, what happens if the PARK closes? They are out of a job then! Laid off! Well that is depending on how it closed. If the park just closed and it’s standing there abandoned then the ride spirits already left, died or are stuck in decay and illness, sometimes to the point they might as well be dead. If it is sold to another company then what happens depends on what the company does to the preexisting rides, though no harm to the spirits themselves. And as for cases like Six Flags New Orleans, where the damn thing got destroyed by Hurricane Katrina.....yeah no they all got injured, complete with failing recovery efforts. Mega Zeph and the co. that are still there are practically withering corpses. Perhaps zombies maybe?
And idk how to end this tbh. You are fucking insane if you made it to the end of this.
TLDR; Being a ride spirit s a job and if you are not on schedule there is a problem. 
Thanks for reading <3 You receive a cookie.

WOOO new ep yet again :D and im on time too! Last ask i sent was a couple days after the ep aired, cos it took me a while to get round to watching it 😅 anyway ok so:
-How did mr lee get away w that. How did mr jin just accept him pulling a sword on him like WHAT sldjksk. in what world would he not be terrified or at least concerned. Or call for help or something? He just walks off????
Then when he does bring it up its like ahhh he just seemed kinda off yknow? LIKE YEAH he threatened to kill you with a fucking sword in his hand T.T
-GIRL cover your mouth when you cough...
-The snuggling is so soft goddamit, and im a sucker for a sick character being gently taken care of >.< theyre so endlessly sweet ARGH i need someone to cuddle. Where is a guy supposed to find a man like eunwoo in this economy tho. Sigh
-Please..PLEASE cover your mouth when you cough i beg. The whole lot of them theyre just as bad as each other help
-Yul: "ah with your superior instincts youve sensed theyre dating 😌 theyve been trying to keep it a secret, so keep quiet please 😉"
Min ji: "😐"
Yul: *silently, but with a lot of emotion* "..fuck"
-FUCK YEAH MORE HISTORICAL FLASHBACKS!!!!
-Are we finally gonna get the backstory... i bet its gonna be a misunderstanding plot how much do we wanne bet its a miscommunication plot. They've set up mr lee/mountain spirit too kindly to have him be a full villain i feel. Like they show an equal amount of moments that paint him in a positive light to ones that portray him as a villain. So its gotta be something like a miscommunication plot or a 'redeemed at the final moment of death' or some shit, i can feel it.. (and if im wrong. Well fuck me lol)
-Aw even back in time they were fucking adorable. But I have to say the mountain spirit romance plot takes the cake this episode for me, the tsundere storyline always wins 😔 im easy to please,,, now if only they couldve stayed happy on the mountain with the puppy kid T.T altho it feels weird when translated to the modern day cos while she was a married woman in the flashback shes a whole student in present day 💀
-But i am endlessly charmed by the mountain spirit and his pretty brown eyes and his trying so hard not to get attached to the fragile mortals <3 Also i think i reaallllly vibe with the historical aspect so ill pick up a historical drama from your list next (i still havent started another one yet sksjsk)
-My misunderstanding plot theory gains momentum! Mountain spirit looked away for literally the exact second she got stabbed and just assumes it was the dude like. I mean i get it but gAHHhhh!!
-Now now mountain spirit. Step away from the dog. Please dont kill the dOG-.... Ah.. Too late ... (unrelated but why is the vet sleeping at the animal hospital sksjsj? Protestant work ethic strikes again)
-So anyway this episode was made just to make me fall deeper in love with mr mountain spirit 😔 and im really looking forward to confict and confrontations next episode >:] (also thank you for the new recs!!! Ive added them to my list ^.^)
- 🌱
henlo! its always so fun reading your asks!!!!
pls, the coughing with the mouth open had me so mad afsfgsg i cant stand that. at least we got cute ass snuggling tho, so I felt better
the flashbacks had beautiful cinematography and we finally got some answers! the mountain spirit is cute :( he really has such pretty puppy eyes.
I agree that something major happened when he looked away. my theory is that she shaman girl will remember what really happened and let him know, and end that 200 year beef.
also, I'm pretty sure that the uncle wont die. I feel like he wll return to his human form, cause the mountain spirit will break the curse.
2 more days for the new ep!!

she doesnt even have tumblr
im equally delusional to think you’ll take accountability
anyways
nightmare before Christmas is in theatres in the states again
i’d love to go with you, you’re the only one as obsessed with Tim Burton as i am
speaking of movies
remember, we promised to see the last after movie together, no matter what happened
it was your promise
it’s long past now, and i forgive you
i suppose I’ll watch it on my own just to finally find out what happens between them
maybe it’ll give me an idea of us; they remind me of us
oh yeah there’s a Jack skellington Fortnite skin
ive never spent a penny on that game but you know i will haha
oh i went and pitched a store and he had the coolest collectibles
bendy and the ink machine collectables i’d never seen before
funko’s everywhere; him and i talked for the better part of an hour about coraline and claymation
finally someone who appreciates claymation as much as we do, makes me feel like we’re normal for a moment
and there’s lots of new killer klowns Merch; i still need to grab the popcorn gun from spirit Halloween; i think i’ll try to go tomorrow and grab it through my busy day
i’m taking someone else on the ghost tour on Friday, the one we went to last year; i wish it was you
but since i’m not going to Salem i have to do as much Halloween stuff around here as possible
finances are really good, i wish we could do all our halloween bucket list stuff
cirque de soleil is coming back; there’s nobody i’d rather go with
and a horror circus!
omg I got the coolest vintage Disney stuff today; a racing jacket and the coolest tees too
they gave me such a good deal; big Disney fans just like us
your dad would have loved it all
speaking of which; how is he?
i pray for his health every day
i love you all dearly
oh, have you heard bad bunny’s new album? it’s so good

[ Dream + that scene of tsuna vs byakuran at the very end of future arc. i am so curious ]
Taken from meme: [x] ||Accepting|| ((OOC: //loud groaning noise of ‘ohhh—this is gonna SUCK- forgive me, I’m absolutely cutting some corners here bc otherwise RIP fingers.’ A rare POV because I felt like it.)) @parallelroutes
Word count: 2,026 (yes, even with me cutting corners)
“… no other choice than to defeat Byakuran.” Maybe if we were a bit faster, we would’ve heard everything that Reborn-chan said in that moment. I know what happens next. A lil snort of a laugh, really.
Tensions are high and I can feel my heartbeat racing in my ear drums. This was a dre-no, a nightmare that was very familiar to me. Though- it was a bit different this time around.
“Hahaha! What a surprise! Your last resort at a time like this is to try and slap some fighting spirit into him!?”
Reborn-chan, ever the calm one: “This is my method. Listen Tsuna. You’re not the only one who’s fighting a battle of dying will. Uni’s sacrificing her life in order to return you all to a peaceful past!”
The way my heart drops to the pit of my stomach is something I don’t think I’ll ever forget. I know what happens, I was there for it, and yet, the sheer panic and grief remains, like a perfect echo of what I felt in that moment. In the back of my mind, I know there isn’t much for me to worry about, but that’s the fun thing about nightmares, your emotions aren’t so easy to control.
“Eh? Is that so?”
How he could still smile in a situation like that, it was beyond me.
“Uncle… why do you know…?” I remember this being such a huge shock. This girl, near my age, had to accept the fact that she was going to die. It’s easy enough to say that she knew it was for the better good, but no one can really know what that feels like until they’re put in the same spot.
It wasn’t just shock on her face, then. You could see the bit of fear, the sadness, and many other complex emotions.
“Of course, I know. I guessed as much. You and your grandmother Luce are two peas in a pod.”
Perhaps, Luce-san had done something similar, sacrificing herself for others. If Uni-chan is really that much like her grandmother, then Luce-san must’ve been a wonderful person.
“Hm then I must stop you form doing such a foolish thing. After all, Uni-chan’s life exists for my sake?”
The absolute nerve. A real piece of work, this one is. Uni-chan’s life exists for herself and those that she cares for. Her life cannot and will not ever exist just for one singular person. That’s how life is, you build relationships, and you exist for a multitude of reasons, and not simply for some grandiose, misguided goal of some punk of a world-dominator.
As expected, Tsuna-san couldn’t hear such a thing laying down (ignoring the fact that he was in fact laying down in that time, you know what I mean). He starts struggling to get up. Everyone starts calling for him.
A truly emotional scene. Even if things looked bad, I remember having faith in Tsuna-san. No matter what, he’d always end up pulling through for everyone and save the day. That was something I really admired about him, the fact that though he had his many faults, he had a good sense of timing. He knew what was important and when to really exert all your effort—sorry, dying will, for something.
“Haha, I can’t believe Tsuanyoshi-kun really woke up form your reproachful encouragement, Reborn-kun. You two really make an astounding team.”
“I wont… hand Uni… over to you…” Tsuna-san seems to have finally come to, regaining his ability to start speaking.
Kyoko and I didn’t see what happened as we were still far away, so we don’t know what led up to the point of Tsuna-san laying on the ground like that. Quite frankly, we were focused on Uni-chan who was floating away towards the danger-zone. Whatever it was, hopefully it wasn’t anything too bad? I don’t understand why everyone else was outside of the mysterious sphere either.
It was something I still haven’t gotten any answers to, and it was hard to bring it up.
Time, is linear, but it isn’t quite so in dreams. Sometimes, it’s for the better, and other times—it’s not.
Like clock-work, as I always feel relieved that his injuries must not have been so bad if he were able to get up, the scene flashes ahead.
It… it really is something of nightmares.
The scene of a miniature white dragon piercing through Tsuna-san’s chest, supposedly through his heart is something I can’t ever forget. This scene alone has made so many cameo appearances in my dreams that I can’t help but feel afraid when Tsuna-san and the others go on dangerous missions.
I see this overlapping the other’s at times and I wake up in a cold sweat, not quite able to fall back asleep as I glare at my phone, as if I’m warning it to not ring and be the bearer of bad news.
Again, even if my memories of the event would allow me to know that a ring had saved his life, I can’t calm the torrential wave of emotions coursing through my veins. Death is a scary concept for most, but witnessing it is another level.
It was an infinite time worse when it involved someone you love. Now, it’s paste tense, but at the time, you know?
The dissonance if quite funny, actually. In this nightmare, I’m not watching like I’m some third party observer, but I’m back in that moment. The emotions are raw and real, but at the same time, they rage and despair. Sometimes, they’re calm and relaxed in times of high tension.
I really disliked having this nightmare because it drove my emotions every which way. Now, there was an extra bit of—awkwardness? That seemed right to say.
I can’t help but wonder in the deep recesses of my mind that I’m having this nightmare not because someone’s going on a dangerous mission, but because I started hanging out with Byakuran-san recently. There is a big disconnect between the one I see in this nightmare and the one I sometimes talk to on occasion in recent events.
Now, I have the added feeling of feeling confused and unfamiliarity.
Normally, I’d continue to see the series of events leading up to Uni-chan sacrificing her life. I’d have to watch as she dies alongside Gamma-san again, but I don’t this time around.
Time skips ahead again.
“The arcobaleno aren’t reviving!”
“No, the flames should have been properly absorbed. It’ll take a little more time.”
Ah—this time.
I want to look away. I want to shut my eyes, but the me of that time didn’t. I hear some people can perfectly control their actions in dreams, but maybe it’s because this is a memory that I can’t have that liberty. I’m forced to look on as I did back then.
I have to watch as Byakuran-san snaps upon Uni-chan’s death.
He’s really unrecognizable compared to the person he is today in present day. My mind can’t help but conjure up some kind of mental overlay of the two, and it’s… scary. It was amazing to see just how starkly different they were from each other.
Yes, I acknowledge that they’re different people, but at the same time, they’re not. It’s probably more accurate to say that this is one outcome of who he could be if circumstances led up to that.
I try to move back, to turn away from what I know is to come next, but. I. Just. Won’t. Budge! It’s so surreal to be stuck in your own body and not be able to move as you’d like. To feel emotions that you know don’t make sense—or to think things that are out of place.
It’s possible this is just a smidge of how he feels to be stuck with this history permanently etched over you like a looming cloud, even if you yourself know you are different. If so, it’s incredibly stifling. It’s frustrating. It’s SO unfair. Try as I might, I can’t move nor look away.
Emotions that were felt in that moment are felt in tandem with the panic and dread that the me of today feels. It’s a new kind of torment, I’m coming to find out. The betrayal and hatred that overcomes you as you feel ashamed of feeling what you did in the past, though you know in that moment- it was acceptable.
Who wouldn’t feel relief in the wake of a horrible person dying?
Yet- as I’m trying to get him to open up to me and help him walk on an unsteady path, I feel ashamed for how I’m feeling. The anticipation, of what was to happen. It’s deplorable, but I can’t fault myself for it either.
How was I to know at the time that a younger Byakuran-san isn’t so… well… that? In retrospect, she wasn’t in the wrong, but I feel she is.
“Who do you think it was that killed Uni?”
No. Stop it.
“Because you made this world the way it is…”
Please, I don’t want to see it.
“Uni…”
Stop!!!
I’m stuck in his hell trap (otherwise known as my own body) unable to break free. The absolutely ironic thing is that the me of that time was crying as I can feel myself mentally doing—but the feelings behind it are different.
The Haru of that time cried from grief over having watched Uni sacrifice herself for everyone. My mentality is different, I’m beyond frustrated. I want out of here. I don’t want to see another person die in front of me. I felt so guilty. It felt wrong. I shouldn’t be here.
I don’t want to be here.
“Died!! I won’t forgive you, Byakuran!”
I can’t really explain it, but it’s like I’m conscious of there being two of me. The me of that time, and the me of today who is like some parasite observer who can witness this scene by possessing another. I’m aware of my own feelings and the movements I wish to make, but I’m also hyper-aware of what the ‘host’ is doing and feeling.
I’m aware of two existences, in essence. The inner turmoil I’m going through as I’m desperately trying to not have to see what comes next has me crying- even though I’m not—actually crying. Soul or mental images of yourself can’t really cry, but I feel as if I am.
You know? True betrayal is in the form of my brain going, ‘you keep thinking about this scene a lot. You must really want to see it. I’ll skip forward for you.’
If I had a habit of cussing, I would. I could promise you that, but alas, I’m a lady.
Despite it being against my wishes, I watch that Byakuran’s final moments. Engulfed in flames. The sound is nonpleasant. The me of the time felt part relieved to know it was all over, but she still felt sorrowful at the fact someone else had died. She’d witnessed two deaths in the span of what…30 minutes?
Tink! That was the sound of a ring falling.
The me of now? What is it that I feel? It’s so much. Sadness? Guilt? Embarrassment? Fear, anger, disappointment, and so much more. So… so much more.
Maybe so much that it was enough that I jolt awake. Sitting up in my bed, covered in cold sweat. Ah- also tears.
Curling my knees into my chest, my forehead rests against my knees as I heave a heavy sigh. “Do I have the right to support him, or try to help?”
There’s a chance that my presence would ultimately be a hindrance to him.
Maybe because I’d known about him and witnessed his death, there was some wariness and uncomfortable feelings that only cause bad memories or feelings to surface, setting him back.
There’s that frustrated feeling again.
“Hah… I’m not going to get much sleep tonight, am I?” I quietly climb out of bed, wiping the tears out of the corners of my eyes to sit on the ground and start stretching, relieving some of the tension in my body.

Haha gotta change up the nickname 😅
Yeah, usually if we're not busy, I'd be on my phone either on here reading and asking you questions, or on tiktok. Sometimes I play on my switch lite or do crossword puzzles. It gets really slow after 5 pm.
Things happen for a reason and at least we're still friends and talk so that's always a good thing to me. I think even if it didn't work out, I am glad that she is still part of my life somehow.
I kind of regret not telling her how I feel but at the same time I think it was a good choice not saying anything because she is straight 😅
You never had a tamagotchi before? You should get one for Christmas hahaha!
I dream most of the time. I never understand them though, and sometimes when I wake up, I don't remember any of it at all. This will sound crazy, but I want to believe that dreams are the windows to a multiverse 😅
Anyways, right now I am just playing on the switch and thinking of last minute items I need to get for Thursday. What about you?
Do you think you have a toxic trait?
-CuriousGeorge
Hahahha yeah true.. gotta changed up the nickname since i wont be sick anymore soon.lol.
Ah i see. Do u work from home since day one u started work or it's like this since covid?
I agree with u about u n ur ex.. it's a good way to look at it. I always try to find the silver lining to anything bad that happen to me even though sometimes hard. I always think that everything happen for a reason.
Ah i see, the type of crush is the hardest, so i've heard. 😁
Haha get a tamagochi for me? Nah, im too old for that. Lol. Do u always know what gift u want for ur self for bday or christmas? Do u buy gift to urself sometimes?
If yeah, what do u want for christmas this year?
Ah i see.. i mostly forgot my dream or not dream at all. Lol. Ouh multiverse, that might be true. I dont know. I hv heard before,people say that people who always dream flying around are actually their spirit is flying around, sometimes to the past or to a real place in the present. I hv met a person or two that dreams like that.
Wanna hear something crazy about my dream yeaaaaars ago? U can believe it or not. It's up to u. When i was like 17 or 18, which i never know that i would ever moved to U.S, i had 2 dreams that kinda "connected" to each other.
First one, so i was actually IN my dream as if i live on it. All of a sudden i felt weird with my stomach n turns out i was pregnant, i felt the pain n the uncomfortable feeling from the pregnancy, n when i try to find out where i am, i was with my friend in the U.S because i saw like a california license plate ( which i never know how it looks like), i walked so hard because of my belly. The dream was short n weird. N it just black out all of sudden when i get into the car n the dream ends.
Second, all of a sudden i was in my childhood house that my parent already sold. But all the furniture r still there n in the dream the house was still ours. I was looking if anybody there n then a little girl came up to me, n hug my legs call me Mama mama. I freaked out, she has wavy brown hair. N she looks like a mixed race girl. I was like where's ur dad, n she said over there with grandma. N i saw a tall white guy talks to my mom but his face was blurred n he said "hey hunnie".
So long story short i found out from my mom that he is my husband n she is my daughter. She even told me my daughter name n i saw her face. But whn i woke up, i forgot her name n her face. I only remember the voice n hair n her body feature n his body featurs.
And i kid you not, im swear im not joking. My husband is the same height n has the same haircut, same voice calling me with the same petnames. N my daughter's hair is wavy brown hair with the same voice n height just like how she is now n i live in the U.S. lol.. My mind is still blown until now. But really, u dont have to believe this. 😆
Toxic trait to myself? Yes i do i guess. I overthink butwhen i overthink i try not to express it but i do want to, so it drives me crazy a lot n hurts my feelings a lot. I overthink that i might say something wrong or do something wrong to people thsts why they dont reply or talk to me, or something. Stuff like that. I got attached pretty easy in a way if i like or adore someone i will not hesitate to do anything i could to help them or be there for them. But then i thought maybe i was too much or maybe people avoid me because of that n then i overthink..same circle of evil.hahaha.
Whats urs? Also im talkong with u right now n my other friends here, also brainstorming while watching one of my favorite fantasy movie The Huntsman: winter's war.
Sorry this answer is too long.
Cheerio!

Haikyu boys when they take a joke/prank too far (Iwaizumi,Daichi)
Tumblr media
Word count: 1.9K
Genre:angst,fluff
AN: In the spirit of April Fools I tried to make my first work based on that I hope you enjoy!! (LOL I can’t actually believe this was the first thing I’ve ever written)
Tumblr media
Iwaizumi:
“Okay so it’s April Fools Day who are we going to prank?” asked Makki “One of the first years?”
“Do we have to prank someone this year..” replied Iwaizumi “so childish”
“Iwa-Chan!” Oikawa said “Don’t be such a spoil sport.”
“Anyways, it can’t be a first year they’re boring to prank a first year coach will be mad at us, we need someone else.”
Just then, you enter the gym, catching their eye as you approach the group sitting on Iwaizumi’s lap “Hey babe, I can still come over to yours to study right?” you ask.
“Yeah of course, practice finishes early so I'll be there before you.” He said
“Alright, see you then bye babe, bye guys” you said, giving Iwaizumi a kiss on the cheek sauntering off and waving at Makki, Mattsun and Oikawa.
“bye Y/N!” They teasingly responded in unison making you laugh.
As they watched you leave, it seemed as if a lightbulb pinged off in all of their heads (besides Iwaizumi) realizing who would be a great person to prank.  
After a lot of convincing, they finally got Iwaizumi in on the ‘harmless’ plan, all they needed to do now is wait on your arrival.
You’re finally done with school after a long and tiring day of exams upon exams and wanting nothing more than to cuddle with your boyfriend (after he teaches you Pythagoras theorem of course.) You did think he was acting weird when you met him this morning in the gym and throughout break and lunch but you just concluded that it was because he was having an ‘off’ day.
You reached his house and used a copy of his key that he gave you to enter we just enter houses up in this bitch  calling out his name “Zumi-babe, I'm here...”  
“Lets get this shit over with” you said tiredly
Upon entering, you notice none of the lights being on or curtains drawn ‘odd’ you think. You go upstairs going straight to his room hopefully to find your boyfriend in his bed or on his Xbox or something. To your surprise his bedroom door was somehow locked shut (even though not having a lock on his door anyways.) Suddenly, you hear creaks slowly trailing up the stairs and an eerie feeling surrounds you... now you start to feel pretty panicked jiggling the door handle to Iwaizumi’s door as it’s practically the only place you can go.
AN: I hate what I’m writing rn but onwards we right
The footsteps on the stairs start to quicken, and you almost certain that you felt something brush pass your shoulder only adding onto the panic and anxiety that you already feel. Ok, the footsteps on the stairs are basically right near you, so doing the only logical thing you can do you body slam the ‘person’ on the stairs as you motherfuckin should  as tears fill your eyes and you pick up bag bolting through the front door, slamming it shut now in full tears and shakingly scared.
You look behind you and see Iwaizumi’s front door re-open and out comes the ‘iNFaMouS sEiJOh fOuR’ in tears... of laughter. It seems that the boys were in laughing fits that their prank ‘payed off’ getting a reaction out of you. You couldn’t see Iwaizumi’s reaction, but you didn’t care you were hurt, annoyed and wanting to get into your bed.
Once you get home, you decide to block your so called ‘friends’ who decided to make you scared shitless and ignored Iwaizumi’s messages asking “where were you today”.... the AUDACITY.  
The next day, the boy’s seemed to realize the consequences of their actions after spending the whole day trying to get your attention only to be straight up ignored. Iwaizumi is immensely regretful after all his efforts to try talking to you were denied, he decided after his practice he was going to get you to talk to him or at least get you to listen to his apologies on what happened yesterday evening.
You left your clubroom and made your way to the school gate to go home.
“Y/N!” shouted Iwaizumi touching your shoulder making you flinch ‘wow did we really scare her that bad?”  
“What do you want iwa?” You asked very agitated
“Y/N I just want to apologize for yesterday, since it was April fools day and all the boys really wanted to prank someone and I-it just happened to be-”
“It just happened to be me. Right?” you interrupted “Gosh Iwaizumi, I was really scared.. I already had a tiring day and all I wanted was my boyfriend to teach me the stupid Pythagoras Theorem and cuddle me afterwards, but no you and your friends just had to be dicks for a day” you turn around planning to walk away before he grabs you again  
“Wait! Just wait y/n, im sorry and I wont ever prank you like that again” he pleaded
“.. and i’ll help you study?” he added pulling the sweetest face of all time to try and convince you  
“ugh, fine stop pulling that face... and you better teach me Pythagoras Theorem” you said rolling your eyes
“yeah yeah whatever you say y/n” he said pulling you under his arm and walking in the direction of his house.
A/N: WOW I DID NOT like the way this turned out but its my first official thing that I wrote hopefully HOPEFULLY MY WORK IMPROVES (I THINK IT WILL) SO please join me on this ‘ride’ in improving my work  
Tumblr media
Daichi:
You decided this morning that you were NOT going to participate in your annual April Day Fool’s prank with Tanaka and Noya... only because of your not-so new boyfriend Daichi saying he didn’t need his teammates corrupting you any longer so you decided to not get involved. With that being said you wouldn’t even think of your boyfriend pulling a prank on you so you didn’t think you’re getting pranked today.
In the gym, the boys were doing the usual: Hinata and Kageyama running after eachother, Tanaka and Noya oogling Kiyoko, Tsukishima listening to music, Yama and Yachi going over club schedules whilst Daichi sat with Sugawara and Asahi.
“So are you pranking anyone today?” sugawara asked
“Pranking someone, isn’t that a bit too juvenile suga?” Asahi replied
“Not you silly, Daichi” said sugawara “With Y/N on his arm they always have to stay on eachothers toes right..she’s a ‘jokester’ right?”
“...right?” Daichi hadn’t thought of it that way, he did know of all your joking escapades before you even got together and how you still liked to joke around now as you date.. He didn’t want you to think that you thought he was too boring for you ?
“Ok. What type of prank should I pull on her..”
Daichi, Sugawara and Asahi (who didn’t really contribute to Suga’s scheming) made a plan for you to meet him at the gym locker with the claims that he had a ‘surprise’ for you .. oh how he was wrong.
Daichi: meet me at the gym locker I have something to show you  
Y/N: Ok!! I’ll be there in 5 minutes
Daichi was nervous, and that was an understatement he didn’t want things to go left and have you thinking he couldn’t even do a simple prank. Once you got there, he saw heard you talking to Sugawara and Asahi outside the door about him wondering where he was in which Suga told you inside the locker room.
“Hey babe” you greeted “what's the occasion in why we’re in here?”
“I...uh..um I need to get something one second” Daichi spoke quickly and rushed out the room closing the door leaving you confused. Minutes passed, and you were now impatient and kinda scared since the room was dusty, dark and cold definitely not your place to be in. You tried texting Daichi but just your luck you have no service ://  
As time went on you tried opening the door but it was jammed shut no hope opening at all you forgot you left your bag outside which of course had your inhaler which did not help the sudden shortness of breath you started to get because of your asthma and claustrophobia. All you wanted was to get out of this room and talk to … Daichi.
Daichi. How convenient that he manage to slip away before the door got closed hmm but he wouldn’t intentionally prank you after ALL the lectures he gave you about not doing pranks this year right?
You didn’t notice how you started to cry and whimper wanting to leave.
On the outside, Daichi heard your cries and ordered Sugawara and Asahi to find the key to immediately get you out which it seems to take a while because Daichi has now stopped hearing your tears making him gulp in fear thinking something bad has happened to you in there.
Sugawara comes to you handing Daichi the keys, his handing shaking as he tries to unlock the door when he eventually does he finds you passed out on the ground of the dusty storage room. Very cliché I know ://
You wake up in the Nurses Office a bit confused on how you got there until your eyes land upon Daichi, remembering how you locked you in the Storage room where you had an asthma attack and passed out. You turned your body away from Daichi not wanting to talk to him right now after the hypocrisy he did.
“Y/N.. Are you alright?” He asked
“Do I look alright?” You responded in a bored tone
“I am really sorry Y/N... I know what I said to you about not doing pranks this year but Sugawara roped me into this and I didn’t want you to think I was too boring for you so I thought doing this prank would make you see me in a different light” he said
“yeah i saw you in a different light alright” you sassed, you then realised what he said ‘too boring’ kind of feeling less mad and more sad that he feels this way “Dai, you’d never be to boring for me … you’re one of the most funness is that a word? guys I've ever met.”
“really?” he asked  
“Of course! I’m kind of still mad at you for letting this happen but I do sort of understand why” you said giving him a hug.
You were eventually cleared to go home and as you left the clinic you saw Asahi and Sugawara standing at the door.  
“Y/N WE’RE SORRY” they bowed to you waiting on your responses
You chuckled slightly at their cuteness and ruffled both of their hair “all is forgiven, just make sure there’s ‘pranks’ this year “
Which they agreed upon.  
A/N: WOW I DID NOT like the way these turned out but its my first official thing that I wrote hopefully HOPEFULLY MY WORK IMPROVES (I THINK IT WILL) SO please join me on this ‘ride’ in improving my work. Feedback is VERY MUCH APPRECIATED and request too since I will literally write whatever...
I may do a part 2 … any particular characters people want?

horror film
Tumblr media
overview: reader and spencer watch a scary movie and spook themselves into cuddling
genre: fluff/angst?(yall are scared bc of the movie)/kind of humor
warnings: light swearing, mentions of idk like spooky ghost stuff
a/n: i definitely have been watching far too many horror movies for my own good but i dont have a spencer reid to cuddle up with lmao anyway i hope you guys enjoy it !!! please please let me know what you thing :)
masterlist
-
-
Spencer didn't understand. after all you guys see throughout the day, you want to come home and watch a horror movie. your whole lives were like one big horror movie.
but, regardless, he would walk to the ends of the earth for you (though he did not plan on telling you that), so watching a scary movie with you wouldn't be so bad. in fact, anything would be good with you. he would happily get a root canal if it meant spending more time with you.
he tried to convince himself: a scary movie is like halloween! and he loves halloween. reading about it. learning about it. but getting his adrenaline pumping via jump scare? hmmm..maybe not.
he didn't watch many horror films when he was a kid. his mom didn't do very well with them. and he liked his foreign films better. but watching the light in your eyes twinkle when you asked him to come over to watch together because you were scared to watch alone? how could he say no?
and you were beyond excited to have him over. even though you guys had already hung out outside of work before, you almost never got to pick the movies. truth be told that was because you went along with almost anything he said so you could get closer. and you planned on watching the movie at a friendly distance.
keyword: planned.
but it was now halfway through the movie and you were both cuddled up together in the corner of the couch. and from the beginning of the movie, anytime something remotely creepy happened, Spencer would lean over and whisper what a reasonable explanation could be. or tell you how statistically improbable the events of a certain scene was. and so you two drew closer and closer. and he convinced himself he was telling you the statistics and facts to make sure you dont get too scared; but really it was himself he was trying to calm down.
the movie was what it said it was; scary. but you had watched your fair share of horror movies, and though a couple of the jump scares got you, you were getting a little disinterested and distracted.
every time he leaned over (rather, now he was leaning down) and whispered something to you, you had to fight the urge to kiss him. not to mention. you were snuggled up to you're best friend who you were secretly crushing on and he was pulling you impossibly closer with every creepy scene that flashed on screen. and you were more exhausted than you knew. and Spencer was just so damn comfortable its like the guys arms were made to dream in!
so you started dozing off.
not Spencer.
he couldn't tell if his heart was beating from using you as his own personal teddy bear, or from the horrifying, ghastly scenes unfolding on screen. he didnt even notice you had fallen asleep until he leaned down, eyes glue to the screen, to whisper how unlikely the existence of ghosts was, and you didn't answer. he looked down and let himself audibly sigh. a smile cracking on his lips at the irony of you falling asleep during a horror movie.
one last jump scare had woken you up at the very end of the movie. not so much the jump scare, but the jerk of Spencer's entire body and the slight yelp he let out. and you found yourself feeling sad that Spencer was going to go home.
you told him he could stay if he was scared, to which he replied he was completely not scared (though his lie was very obvious). and having not watched most of the movie, you were able to fall back asleep in no time.
that was not the case for Spencer.
he was incredibly paranoid as he walked up the stairs, afraid an evil spirit would be waiting to scare him in his apartment. and when he lied down to sleep, every shadow that appeared in his room seemed to resemble a ghost. he tossed and turned petrified for about an hour before deciding he couldn't stay alone in his apartment.
so he found himself driving back to your apartment at about midnight to ask if he could sleep in the guest bedroom.
when he arrived at your door you let out a chuckle at his request, giving him a sort of "told you so" talking to as you made arrangements in the guest room so he'd be comfortable. and boy did this make him feel better. he was still very scared, but it wasn't nearly as bad because he knew you were just a room away. he opted to get a glass of water to try and calm down.
you, however, had just now started to be scared as images replayed in your head of things that go bump in the night. you tossed and turned trying not to look at the shadowy corners of your room, but you just couldn't fall back asleep. so you decided to make your way to the kitchen for some water, keeping your head down to avoid spooking yourself via the various oddly shaped nicknacks in your home.
Spencer stiffened as he felt a presence in the room, and he turned to see the shadowy figure of a woman, hobbling towards him, head trained on the floor. he couldn't scream, he couldn't run, he couldn't do anything but stare terrified at the figure.
you looked up as you neared the kitchen, letting out a blood curdling scream when you saw a tall shadow man standing in your kitchen.
Spencer could scream now that the figure began screaming. he let out a high pitched yelp as he stumbled along the wall looking for the light switch. he felt the need to protect you from the ghost, so in a fit of deranged manliness he let out a string of words that in or out of context is completely laughable.
"fuck off you spooky bitch!" the shadow man yelled, finally finding the light switch.
when the light flicked on the confusion and horror stopped. and instead you and Spencer stood equally spooked, in your fight or flight response.
"Spencer?" you croaked, lowering a raised fist. you planned on fighting a ghost?
"y/n?" he asked back equally confused.
"i was getting water what are you doing?" you asked, laughing slightly as you realized what he had yelled out.
"i was too," he chuckled, remembering what he had called out, "sorry for telling you to fuck off and calling you a spooky bitch."
"its ok, sorry for being 100% ready to punch you in the neck."
you two stood in a silence that wasn't exactly comfortable but not awkward either as you got a glass and filled it with water.
"hey do-" he began.
"could i-" you started at the same time.
"you go first," he chuckled, taking a sip of his water.
"i wont be mad if you say no, but could i sleep in the guest bed with you? my room has way too many spooky corners." you asked shyly.
"i was just about to ask that," he smiled.
you let out a relieved sigh before gulping down your water and heading to sleep in the guest room.
you two lied weirdly far at first but after mentioning how the coat hanger looked like a man with horns you two both reached for each other. falling asleep wrapped tightly in each others arms. hearts beating together quickly; but not because of fear.

Tumblr media
I know this isn’t canon at all, since Yuuji can pretty much control Sukuna...but I just want some Itadori cuddles
Tumblr media
Itadori x reader | Jujutsu Kaisen
⤷ Genre: Fluff+Angst
⤷ Word Count: 1072
⤷ Warnings: cursing, negative feelings (ie:worthlessness, etc)
⤷ Synopsis: Itadori wakes up to you crying...and he’s gotta figure out what-or who-made you so upset.
Music Collection | Tip Jar | Requests!
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧ ✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚:
Tumblr media
“Huh? W-what happened?”
Itadori blinked a few times, ruffling his hand through his hair as he tried to wake himself from his brain fog.
What went on that made him forget his memory so badly?
He remembered having a movie night with you, having a stack of snacks on the table as you two cuddled up on the couch, readying for a long night of movies. The last thing he remembered was telling you something about the movie you were watching, and then letting out a yawn...did he pass out?
It wasn’t it like him to knock out during a movie, he was always too focused too think about sleep, but you were so warm and cuddly...he must have just fell asleep by accident.
Yuuji scratched the back of his head, a shy chuckle leaving his lips.
“Guess I accidentally fell asleep, sorry about that y/n…
-“y/n?”
Itadori turned his head, his ears picking up a stomach churning noise-
you were crying.
You had been snuggled up close to him, but right now you were on the very opposite of the couch, as far as you could be from him. You were cradling your knees to your chest, back shaking from the sniffles as you turned yourself away from him.
Itaodri was instantly scared- you were fine just moments ago, what had happened when he was asleep?
He started scooting himself closer to you, wanting nothing more than to wipe those tears away so he can make you happy and smiling again.
“Was the movie too sad?” He asked, desperately trying to piece together the situation,” I'm so sorry, I didn't think it would make you so upset, we can change it-”
“Do you-“ you squeaked out, your voice meek and scratchy,” do you really think of me like that?”
His hand was reached out to you, so close to comforting your broken form- but it faltered, taken aback by your words.
What were you talking about?
He retreated his hand back to his body, rubbing the back of his neck.
“I-Im sorry babe,” he chukled nervously, “I dont really know what your talking about,”
He watched you abruptly turn your body to him, a sniffle leaving you as you swallowed thickly.
Itadori felt his heart break at the sight of you-your eyes were glassy and red, wet tears streaking across your cheeks. Your brows were knitted with such pain, he wanted to just shower you with love and adoration to make it go away.
But in order to do that, he had to figure out what the hell got you this upset in the first place.
Hiccups began to abrupt in your chest, the force of them making your tears well in your eyes again as you looked up at him.
“Hey, its okay” he cooed softly, gingerly taking your hand in his. “You’re safe with me, I wont let anything happen to you. Just tell me whats wrong, and I promise I’ll make it all go away,”
Something was different...when he took your hand, you didnt look more comforted like you suaully would...you had stiffened as if it pained you to have him touch you.
“Do you-do you think Im worthless? And-and dumb? Ugly?” you sniffled out, your voice weak and timid.
Yuuji blinked a few times yet again, utterly confused and worried.
What or who was making you think like this?
You continued to spill out these harmful, negative words, each one making Itadori’s stomach sink deeper and deeper. He could see your spirits had been crush, but he just couldnt seem to understand what had brought this upon you.
You paused slightly, your eyes wavering and throat throbbing, turning to Yuuji with a pitiful stare.
“Do you-do you not want to be with me?”
Yuuji instantly reacted, his brows knitted and eyes wide.
“Of course I want to be with you!” he exclaimed, his voice proud and unwavering.
He brought your hand up to his chest, his larger palm placing yours against his heart.
“On my life, I wouldnt be with you if I didnt want to. Youre beautiful, smart, funny, you always make me smile, you’re always there for me, you make me feel like the best version of me...so why wouldnt I want to be with you?”
The thumping of Itadori’s heart seeped into your skin, the motion sending a thumping through your fingertips, through your arm and traveling to your body.
The corner of your mouth tugged, yet eyes still full of sorrow and pain.
“What happened love?” he asked again softly, noticing how you eyes faltered, moving closer to your shaking form.
“Sukuna….” you stuttered, chest beginning to fall more forcefully, “he-“
“Did he come out...and say all those things to you?” Itadori finished your sentence for you, his light brown eyes darkening to a shade of chocolate brown as you nodded your head weakly, confirming his worst fear.
The hell did that damn curse thinking he was doing?It was bad enough he could hear him complaining in his head all day, and now he was trying to screw up his love life?
Itadori fully knew Sukuna wasnt too... pleased to know that his vessel was dating a human... and one with a low amount of cursed energy. Yuuji could hear him all the time complaining or making rude comments whenever you two were together, but Yuuji would either ignore it or tell him to be quiet. But he would never think Sukuna would do something as terrible as this…
Just as Itadori was going to start yelling at Sukuna in his head for being such a jackass to you, he felt your breathing become more rapid than before.
“Oh, babe…” he breathed out, instantly scooping you up into his lap as you began to cry again, tears wetting your cheeks once again.
Before you seemed to flinch against his touch, but now your hands instantly wrapped into his chest, enveloping yourself in his warmth as you hide yourself into his collarbone
Yuuji let you sob out your pain without judgement, whispering sweet nothings as he brushed the side of your face with his digits, placing kisses all over your face.
“I promise you,” he stated, voice strong and unwavering, “I will never let that happen ever again.”

Fruits Basket Manga Review, ch (92-93)
That was painful & so well-written! This analysis will focus on kyokyo mainly & faintly on her effect on kyo. Although, her story affects tohru’s life immensely, I won’t analyze tohru’s part & will wait until it’s a tohru’s chapter to use the knowledge of kyoko’s past to better read tohru’s mind & understand her decisions! Can’t wait! after all, that’s why I’ve read the manga to begin with!
-Kyoko’s Atonement:  (the weight of words):
Tumblr media
 Kyoko breaks down after she learns she’s expecting. Why? cuz she hurt her mom. The notion that “yeah my parents caused me emotional trauma & so I’mma hurt them as well” is toxic & burdening as it starts a cycle of pain. Kyoko was right. She had no idea how her mom felt seeing her rebel, or follow violence or hear her harsh words. I’m not cleansing the mom from guilt nor responsibility. I’m just saying since the mom’s pov is blocked from us, assuming shes similar to the dad is wrong. kyoko’s fear of being punished with a child similar to herself is genuine, realistic & refreshing to see expressed in anime! usually character like kyoko are cool & brave, but here she’s humanly weak & doubtful. LOVE IT!
Moreover, in furuba words weigh on ppl & have consequences. We see this with kyo. His dad destroyed him verbally with words “ not my fault, it’s yours” that kyo echoes back to yuki! meaning the consequences of the dad’s words cause harm to his wife, kyo & even yuki!. Kyo was tormented with his own words for long time & clung to them even more in order not to resort to suicide! “ not my fault, it’s the rat’s” . Words can crush you down so bad if you hear them from loved ones, & worse if you utter them back to other loved ones! here kyoko learned that just the mere thought of her future child echoing her words back to her would torment her to death! Excellent writing!
-Katsuya invented Furuba’s vision (Accepting weakness & moving on):
Tumblr media
The teachings of kyoko & tohru were really katsuya’s after all. I’m fne with that. These teachings are the core of Furuba’s vision. He tells kyoko to accept that she’s weak, afraid & doubtful. it’s okay. But gives her tools to move on. Your kid isn’t you. They’re an individual person. As parents all we can do is give love/hugs (sth kyoko’s parents didnt do), listen to them (sth yuki’s parents didnt do) & if they do sth wrong will explain it & teach them well (sth kyo’s parents didn’t do, his wrong deed was being born a cat spirit & he was hated for it with no explanation, mom gave lots of “fake” love & escaped by death, dad became a raging monster). Accepting weakness & moving on is what the cursed sohmnas needed to do to heal & what tohru taught them. Off course, tohru herself struggled to follow her own teachings & that’s amazingly realistic!
-Kyoko’s guilt (punishment brings ease):
Kyoko wanted to be punished so harsh for her husband’s death. The gossip got to her. She failed him as a life’s companion. Taking care of our loved ones is a duty we carry with much love & care. Them slipping away is perceived as us failing by none than ourselves. The thing is, death comes with no warning at times. It was his time to leave. Accepting it or not, wont bring him back, but accepting it will help kyoko deal with pain while not accepting will cause more pain for her & tohru.
One of the most painful things abt grief is that it’s personal. Life continues around you. Only you feel it.  “didn’t the world end when katsuya died”. No kyoko. Only you died emotionally. Only him died physically. Kyo once said “ mom why didn’t you kill me instead”. A different reaction to grief, guilt & pain, but same conclusion: neither katsuya nor kyo’s mom are coming back no matter how much pain kyo or kyoko felt.
Kyoko found ease in emotional death, neglecting & refusing life, punishing herself for staying after him.
kyo found ease in rage & blaming others as he his father did, later he’ll escape to emotional & physical slow death “ cat cage/confinement”.
tohru... found ease in pretending "I’m okay” & her mom is alive.. but not physically.. emotionally, so she’ll ignore the truth & live only for her.
Didn’t I say grief is harsh, weird & very very personal. It’s hard to explain, deal with & heal. The mere words of consolation hurt cuz the grieving ones dont want to accept loved one are really gone. Her dad’s harsh words cemented the “emotional death” that kyoko felt. I’m not needed. neither katsuya. nor parents in general. depression. misery. sadness. emptiness.
-The tv show helped to trigger kyoko’s desire to “meet” katsuya. She has already reached the conclusion that she isnt needed. So, the tv show with their words of the deceased wanting you to be happy. triggered her into misinterpreting the words as to mean her death NOT fuel her to live in his memory as intended.
- “Loosing your way first before finding your answer” is okay & so human!:
Tumblr media
Ironically..Tohru... was the person Kyoko was punishing NOT herself: By being emotionally dead, kyoko neglected her daughter. Her world shouldnt be just one person. There are others. Katsuya himself gave her a person to love. Tohru. Kyoko chose death & unintentionally set tohru into a world of loneliness 10 times harsher thsn what kyoko faced. She was about to do, but was saved by a nameless child who reminded her of tohru. She chose wrong first but later saw her answer. Kyo chose death by accepting the confinement & he, too, unintentionally set tohru into a world of loneliness 10 times harsher if he wasnt with her. He chose wrong first but later saw his answer. Off course kyo’s story is more developed & complicated as he dealt with bigger issues than just tohru & his answer wasn't just loving tohru alone but also loving himself & choosing to live for them both: himself & tohru.
-Kyo’s guilt is a concussion thought eating him alive:
Part of why kyo’s story was one of the most human & complex is due him loosing his way first, failing, repeating mistakes “ I always though that hurting ppl was the only thing I was good at, after all, isnt that why mom died?” Kyo’s nightmare being a conscious effect of hearing tohru’s talk abt “ videos & memories of loved ones” is 1000 times stronger & more human than a cliche effect of seeing a “ hat” & to revive a a blocked memory... What the hell!! truly disgusting how the emotional weigh is reduced for stupid cliche drama !!!!!! ..
Anyway, kyo actively & consciously wanted punishment .He was sure that kyoko blamed him” I wont forgive you” can only mean what it literally means. The purpose of the nightmare is to cause kyo to seek “ emotional death” like kyoko & to loose his path more. It is meant to prepare kyo to refuse tohru even more. Therefore, the pay off at the climax will be better & stronger.
Tumblr media
Reading kyo’s inner thoughts will never not be refreshing!!! Also, the slow burn is cooked on low , hot fire , so the pay off will be the most delicious there is!
Side Notes:
I’ve stated my feelings regarding the age gap between kyoko & katsuya in last chapter’s preview post. I’m done with it & won’t let it interfere with my analysis of kyoko nor tohru.
The idea of just being together as a fun hanging out activity without being bothered much of where reminds ms so much of kyo & tohru!! we see them being happy together in the anime in kazuma’s house, shigure’s rooftop, cooking pancake in the kitchen! I really like this domestic feel of romance! it contradicts the notion of expensive restaurant with the girl wearing a breathtaking dress to woo the guy for it to be utterly romantic as we see in movies, & other stories.
NGL, katsuya looked sexy waiting home.. damn it! >_<
I cried watching tohru between her parents, how they acted & how loved she was! T_T. it reminded me of my niece How her dad’s death affected her! She was the apple of his eyes.. T_T.
Tohru is indeed a rice ball! her dad gave her a masculine name while tohru is so feminine! his reasoning is “finding salty taste in sweet things make the taste better & stronger, kinda giving it a hidden flavour”, the rice ball has a pickle inside it & it’s what makes the taste so savory & delicious!
Grandpa’s “ chance meetings could lead to variety of outcomes, good or bad” YES! kyo/tohru/yuki meeting each other by chance. Fiction make it look weird, but trust me, real life has those by dozens!
“ i wonder how lost you’ll be, how much time you’ll need to get your answer”. He will screw up so bad, kyoko! it will be so good! one of the best screw up’s I’ve seen! so painful for him & tohru & amazingly written!
Kyo’s nightmare being connected to him remembering/dreaming of kyoko’s story is bigger effect than opening the ep with it & having the cause be sth that happened last ep, a week ago... the effect is NOT the same.
Momiji is so cute!!! did his curse break here or not yet? he seemed as tall as tohru.
Writing tohru worried abt kyo after seeing him pale is the tohru I know!! Not that stupid girl who watches the guy she loves have a panic attach in se3, ep6, then goes in ep 7...” dahhhh.. Jeez.. I duno why kyo is sleeping until now.. better laugh & make cute rice cakes” giggle giggle...That scene got me so furious even when I first saw it!! THIS IS NOT TOHRU! tohru cried for a stupid story that haru told abt puppets!! she’ll forget the person she challenges herself for is sick?! ugh!
I love seeing yuki & kyo chill & cool around each other.
Kyoko being fully dependent on katsuya can be a factor in her grief, but I’ve seen cases where both partners are independent but still be completely broken after the others’ death. Grief isn’t logical at all & is extremely personal.

BnHA Ch.319 (“The one with the Class 1-A reunion") - Parallels and comparisons
Fun fact: This chapter is called “Friend” because Ch.258 is already called “Friends.” That chapter is mostly about Hawks and Twice, and features Twice’s famous line, “Anyone who helps his friends can’t be all bad.”
SO MANY THINGS I LOVED ABOUT THIS CHAPTER!!!! At the outset, this chapter helps solidify the timeline and clarify that the whole arc takes only 1-2 weeks post-war. The pacing may have been weird to us as readers, but in-universe everything happened VERY fast.
Tumblr media
I’m really enjoying Iida being the instigator here, prodding Bakugo, Todoroki, and Tokoyami. Iida’s been sidelined for a while and it’s nice to remember he can be a hothead. It’s weird though that Bakugo has Best Jeanist’s number and not All Might’s?? Maybe Bakugo’s just too angry at All Might to call him? You'd think that if Bakugo was trustworthy with OFA that he'd get access to the secure line.
Tumblr media
Yep, Iida won’t back down from Endeavor or Deku either. Deku tries to throw down and Iida’s just, “Same shit, different day, huh?” even though Deku looks absolutely monstrous. (Seriously, Deku is making unprovoked threats against his classmates…) I think Iida is essential here because he has previously knocked sense into a stubborn Izuku: https://greenhappyseed.tumblr.com/post/656261027414048768/threatening-taunting-and-worrying-wont-reach
Tumblr media
I LOVE Ochako stepping up and escalating through the UA bureaucracy. Also, it’s cool to see her show some aggression and fighting spirit. Even Shoto is taken aback when she stands up and smacks the sofa.
Tumblr media
Now for the big guns… Bakugo is 100% right that he knows Deku and the Deku/All Might relationship better than anyone. And bless Bakugo’s iron will for speaking truth to power before his school’s principal and the #1 hero who is also his former boss/mentor, his friend’s father, and the guy who All Might compares him to. But, as always in MHA, we see a hero’s knowledge is incomplete because heroes don’t freaking talk to each other about stuff that matters.
Crucially, Bakugo doesn’t know about Nighteye’s impact on Deku and All Might. He doesn’t know that All Might wanted Deku to stay at UA or that All Might was trying to get Deku to take care of himself, despite assassins and explosions targeting them both. Bakugo also doesn’t know about the vestige battle with AFO/Shigaraki or the post-war vestige conversations. Bakugo doesn’t know that Deku wants to save Shigaraki, that Deku is likely the last OFA holder due to his quirklessness, or that Second is telling Deku that inaction is not an option. Perhaps, if Endeavor couldn’t take a good look at himself and understand the burden of #1 until “All Might” became a walking skeleton, Bakugo won’t be able to fully understand OFA and Deku’s journey until he sees Deku become a shadow of what he was (maybe acting unheroically?) That said, Bakugo is drawn in 319 with his posture like All Might in 309.
Tumblr media
Speaking of not knowing things, Endeavor doesn’t tell the class that Deku ditched All Might. It’s not clear why he starts to say “But…” and then stops, because during this arc he’s very communicative with Hawks, Jeanist, and the Lurkers. Did he realize, like All Might did in Ch.309, that he can’t physically stop Deku? Does he feel the same power gulf with Deku that he felt with All Might, now that he and Hawks are too slow for Deku??? Or is he an elitist prick who doesn’t respect the kids as heroes in their own right (including his own SON!!!). Whatever the reason, Endeavor doesn’t use his words or help connect the class with Deku, Jeanist, Hawks, or All Might. No, he tosses his phone so the class can track Deku on their own. So much for “maturing” and passing the torch with grace.
Tumblr media
I feel REALLY bad for Shoto here. Both his parents betrayed him and hurt him, and now at his family’s lowest point, Shoto finds his best friend is not just gone, but that the trust didn’t go both ways. To make matters worse, his dad is breaking his promise to Shoto (the one that's supposed to be a step towards atonement) for the purpose of enabling Deku’s betrayal, with the implication that Shoto isn’t strong enough to handle what’s “out there.” Endeavor will strike his son, but won't let him fight using his own well-honed powers??? Ugh. Shoto is saying “us” in the left hand panel below, but it’s clear that Deku’s actions and Endeavor’s focus on Deku weighs heavily on Shoto. I’m so glad that in this chapter we see Bakugo, Iida, Ochako, and Momo with him. Shoto needs a break and some time with friends as much as Deku.
Tumblr media
I love Nezu cutting off Endeavor multiple times, followed by his own endorsement of the kids’ mission. It’s sweet that Nezu wants to protect BOTH All Might and Deku — we know Nezu loves the school but I don’t think we’ve seen him so paternal before. (I’m glad someone is looking out for All Might too, since the pro heroes aren’t.) I also like Nezu echoing the theme of reassurance. Physical safety, in a situation like this, is only one part of “saving.” That said, I’m still not convinced the UA barrier will actually keep out the villains who broke into Tartarus. (Of course, it’s possible Nezu is the traitor and he’s manipulating the kids into bringing Deku & All Might to UA, but I’m gonna enjoy this moment for now….)
Tumblr media
MASK SYMBOLISM ALERT. Deku saying, “I’m fine, don’t worry,” while putting his mask on, right after Bakugo completed the rescue maskless. Ochako saying she’s worried with her rose-colored mask/shield off, just like her big war moment (but this time, the light is in her eyes).
Tumblr media
Love these kids supporting each other (or, in the case of Bakugo, shoving Shoto before Shoto fights Endeavor, and taking over the direct confrontation of Endeavor). Also, despite Endeavor’s worries, it’s his son and Momo that captured the villain after Bakugo (his intern) immobilized the villain. Endeavor should know that this class can definitely handle Tartarus escapees.
Tumblr media
Now, a few loose AFOs ends:
Bakugo’s tie. While this is very un-like him, I agree with others who have said it represents him trying to look and act like part of the team, rather than the punk on the fringes. It also ties him (haha!) to Best Jeanist, who was always trying to fix Bakugo’s image. I don’t think the tie is a sign of any AFO manipulation…
But then again, Bakugo’s clapping and taunting Deku about smiling in Kamino IS reminiscent of AFO’s actions in Kamino. AFO and Bakugo certainly do tend to circle near each other in the narrative.
Also, Iida says 1A won't be able to smile while their friend walks a “thorny path,” but that was the language AFO used in the mansion message. What happens when Deku hears his friends use the same words as AFO?
At a meta level, why are we seeing signs of AFO when we're purely on the hero side of things? I can think of three possibilities: First, it's foreshadowing, plain and simple. We're seeing bits of AFO "invade" the class to set up for his eventual attack. Second, it's some kind of mind control or illusion so Deku isn't seeing what's really there. Third is that it's Horikoshi's way of reminding us, as readers, that the heroes and villains are two sides of the same coin. They think the same way, they speak the same way, and, to AFO's point, are therefore fairly predictable despite having free will.

Full Moon in Taurus 🐞🐍⛲🐝ALL SIGNS
With the elements/signs of the zodiac, you can freely use your Sun, Moon, Rising/Ascendant, or even your Stellium (❗️)
[Back to Masterlist]
Like its prior incarnation Aries, Taurus energy is a pretty selfish energy. It is the hedonist of the zodiac. Its lesson is self-sufficiency, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, if anything, it should be quite empowering. But because the world is the way that it is, the pursuit of self-sufficiency could easily spiral downward into greed and an obsession with selfish gains.
The lesson of this Full Moon in Taurus, for now, is the alchemisation of your perception of security and stability—of what it means, for yourself, to be spiritually, positively, empoweredly self-sufficient in this dog-eat-dog world.
Main theme for 🐞Aries Leo Sagittarius
Interestingly, here's a super mystical and spiritual energy for Fire Signs (usually this kind of energy is reserved for Water Signs, tee-hee). This may be a time you feel a massive pull towards the hidden knowledge of the world—the occult. Of course, this plays out at different levels for each person depending on how far they are into what we term spirituality.
The purpose of this period of curiosity is to help you navigate the realm of creation and manifestation in a more powerful way. There's a sense of purification here. Like, you need to understand first how energies in this world often turn to pure shit—evil—due to the pull of the temptations of the Maya. This is to help you to not be pulled into the same temptations of bullshit manifestation. Because, my dear, shit creations only help you rack up more bad karma LOL
Soul Healing for Fire Signs🔻❤️
Temper your passions so you can invest your brilliant Fire energy wisely. Engage only in pursuits that uplift your spirit, or in some cases, bring calm and peace into your everyday reality (some Fire Signs need more of the latter). Maintain a hyper focus, but don't burn yourself out. Remember, temperance is the key to your current pursuit of occult higher knowledge~

Main theme for 🐍Taurus Virgo Capricorn
-By this time, aren't you bored of getting the Priestess of Innocence, yet again??-
The message is quite simple, really. Take it easy. But take what easy? Life, honey. Just existence itself. You need to learn to develop bigger faith in the benevolence of the Universe. Sometimes, people think they are positive and faithful, but that's just the conscious part of your brain that wants to convince you so. Meanwhile, your somewhat erratic means of securing pathways towards your bountiful goals tell the Universe you don't actually trust it all that much. Yeah... that's the subconscious running the show in the BG.
You always want to be in control. No Humans are ever in control and that's exactly the tragedy of being born into this stupid Earth realm. People will tell you this is a freewill world, but that freewill you have is the freewill of your Higher Self and not your Human aspect. I know that sucks to hear that, but there's good news, too!
Soul Healing for Earth Signs🔻💚
Since much of Human freewill actually belongs to your Higher Self, you can share responsibility, so to speak. Basically, know that you don't have to always be in control to make things happen. You can learn to allow things to run their course and learn that manifestation is easiest when you're just attracting your desires instead of forcing them to happen.

Intellect becomes a downfall when one does not apply wisdom in one's thinking. Do you understand what this means? If you're unable to turn knowledge and past experiences into a reliable tool of navigation, you are bound to get stuck in patterns of thinking and decision making that are potentially harmful—to others, but also yourself.
Really, like all smart people are wont to do, you guys are often critical of yourself whilst trying to be patient with everybody else. The latter is not necessarily a bad thing, but your being doubtful of your own capabilities—and of whether or not you're doing the right thing—only causes you plentiful of anxieties. Maybe mild anxieties, but they are like troubled water under the calm bridge.

People all make mistakes and that doesn't necessarily make them a bad person, or a failure, or a hopeless case, nor does that mean they deserve punishment. Mistakes are the gateway towards self-knowledge and mastery. You become wiser as you grow older because you learn from your own real-life experiences and apply the knowledge accordingly. As you grow older, you become gentler—with yourself, and genuinely with others.

Main theme for 🐝Cancer Scorpio Pisces
If you are hard on yourself, you tend to be hard on other people. If you allow other people's hardness to make you hard on yourself, you're killing yourself from the inside whilst allowing others to bully you. Do you understand? This is just the uniqueness of Water Signs. Your emotions can often be just a reflection of your environment.
But that's the lesson of this Full Moon in Taurus: just how far and how much longer will you allow your emotions to be dictated by the behaviours of others? No matter how much they affect you, other people aren't responsible for your emotional reactions. You are still the one making all the personal choices.
'Don't let people pull you into their storm. Pull them into your Peace.' — some Buddhist quote
Soul Healing for Water Signs🔻💛
This may sound a bit strange, but shades of lime colours will help you this period. Lime is a refreshing combination of yellow and green—Solar Plexus and Heart chakras. Solar Plexus is your seat of power and Heart is your compassion. People can only be genuinely compassionate when they feel safe in being their authentic selves. Learn to be okay with being... just YOU. Even in all your messy glory.

Every bit of Shadowbringers is the Scions it corresponds with.
Amh Araeng Prt 1 is very Alisaie. Mirroring her decision in A Realm Reborn, Alisaie wanders off to the outskirts of civilization. Choosing to observe the powers of the world and figure out a way to stop coming tragedies. We’re introduced to the threat and aggressively fight against it but in mirror the loss of Ga Bu and Louisoix. Alisaie loses someone dear to her by Tempering. Louisoix became a Primal and Ga Bu was tempered by Titan. (Though honestly I wish Alisaie would stop losing people dear to her cause after Requiem for Heroes it feels like the story likes to kick her while she’s down at this point)
Kholusia Prt 1 is very Alphinaud. There is a semblance civilization, a rule of law in the area, there is even a function in which the society works. Mirroring Alphinaud remaining well within spitting distance and very much in the middle of the comings and goings. He uses his diplomatic maturity, which once was made for personal gain with clever wit and scheme. He has learned from the Crystal Brave betrayal, corruption of Ishgards, the result of those who choose might means right and what it results in from his time in Ala Mhigo, Hingashi, and Doma respectively. Applying himself to better comes to grips with the peoples plight. Upon seeing how Eulmore treats those chosen but then thrown away and then coming face to face with Vauthry. Rather than turning a blind eye and just being, “That’s just how it is.” as he was with the Monetarists and Refugees of Ul’dah. He pushes back against the system, damn the consequences, leaving an easily position to effect the politics of Eulmore and even gets a bullseye placed on the back of his head.
Lakeland is very much the Crystal Exarch’s Domain. It is the place of mystery, where life heavily clings on and every time we venture out to it. We come into conflict with either Eulmore or the Sineaters, Vauthry is controlling. It is in Lakeland, we fight through the Holminster Switch. Come face to face with our first Lightwarden and see where there was once furtile farm land, peace, and people. Now chaos reigns and an apocalyptic wave of disaster has struck. Mirror the world, G’raha had woken up to after the Eighth Umbral Calamity. This is where our foot hold is. Where we first bring night back to the First and his plan for saving the Source is put in motion. There is also a sense of myth about the place, Bismarck, a fae being in this shard slumbers in the Lake aptly named the Source. And it is only by bringing together to allies we made that we allowed to travel to the Tempest when he is spirited away. Just as G’raha gathered allies and people to himself to build the Crystarium.
Il Mheg is Urianger’s realm and reflects the game, he has agreed to play with the Warrior of Light at the behest of the Exarch. It is full of beings, who make deals out of innocent furvor at the determent of all who are around them. Pixies trick travels and fellow fae a like. The Nou Mou live to serve mortal kind just as Urianger serves the realm as a whole, no matter what light history might cast him in. And the Amaro dream of comrades lost, wishing to feel the comfort the adventurers and merchants they once wandered with. Grieving in their own way just as Urianger did after Moenbryda’s passing. Il Mheg is the land of faeries, it is steeped in myth and legend just as Urianger always had his nose in a book. Titania lays at the center of the realm. Once the pinnacle of the fae, forever corrupted by the Lightwarden’s energy. A horrific mirror of what should happen is G’raha’s plan should fail and the paragon of heroism, his friend: The Warrior of Light. Could also become a monster wearing the skin of a kingly figure should his mask slip. Yet when we enter his abode in the middle of Il Mheg, the Waking Sands/Rising Stones music plays. Reminding us of home and the Scions, he calls family and he welcomes us as he ever did, cryptically.
“Unto a hero weary of heroes, a heroes wends [their] way...”
Rak’tika is Y’shtola of course. She has turned away from her light magics of conjury to the dark magics of thaumaturge. The great boughs rise up and block out the sun light of the Great Wood. Reflecting the living style of her mentor: Master Matoya. A person who prefers their solitude, away from the dealings of the world, but with great knowledge to progress the plot forward. Thancred and Y’shtola get into an argument on how each other has changed. The two of them stood side by side after the Bloody Banquet and were both flung into Aetherstream by her Flow spell. While Y’shtola adapted to her blindness and halfened life force. Thancred had to push against the constrains of no longer having access to his aether and briefly losing sight in one eye. His last moments were the thought of protecting Minfilia. Only to wake up in Dravania and find out that Minfilia is no more. Y’shtola rejects Master Matoya and Thancred’s choice of solitude. Making friends with the Night’s Blessed. Even though, she knows she might have to leave them behind all too soon. She becomes a pinnacle of the Night’s Blessed community. While Thancred wanders hither and tither unfocused with Ryne at his side. Slipping easily into her role as a Scion, she researches the clues left behind by the Ronka Empire and makes allies with a civilization who has also closed themselves off from the world. Y’shtola is the first one to recognize the faults in G’raha’s plan and is immediately suspicious of the Exarch’s intentions. We see Y’shtola never truly changed however as when it comes time to get the item that will save the world and protect her friends. She readily uses Flow once more. Damn the consequences. Her sacrifice for the greater good is, as always, her charge which she never hesitates to grant. She even bonds with Runar seeing him as a little brother despite his obvious want for something more, just as she has a sister back in Gridania with whom she has a friendly relationship with. Just as Y’shtola’s connection to Matoya opened up the path to Azys Lla. Her run in with Emet-Selch opens up the path to learn of the Ancients and Amaurot and the true nature of Hydaelyn and Zodiark.
Amh Araeng Prt 2 is Thancred. Its tedious, its nearly empty, full of the smallest hopes. Each challenge is made to be tougher than it should be and despite us being able to compliment Thancred when finding a Voebrite coin. He shrugs it off as he is wont to do at this point. We get Ryne’s inner turmoil deepening. Thancred comes face to face with another individual wallowing in their own grief for those he loss and suddenly after coming face-to-face with Ran’jit again. Thancred throws away his misgivings and brings Ryne into the fold as shoe horned and bad written as possible. So lets just skip this area and never talk of it ever again okay? Cause the story never really does save for the Fatebreaker Eden section
Kholusia Prt 2 is Ardbert’s story or what it once was. We gather our group together and besiege Eulmore only for the villain to escape our grasps. But we triumph in liberating Eulmore from Vauthry’s tyranny for a moment. Alphinaud gets his heroic speech, Alisaie gets to combat the threats of the Lightwardens, Y’shtola and Urianger work together to make a massive Talos, Thancred and Ryne keeping tabs on Vauthry and Mt. Gulg. We meet face to face with G’raha. For all intents and purposes our Cylva. A person with a schism coming to a head. We come together as a team for the first time since coming to the First and each shows their worth in their connections to the realm. Mirroring Ardbert’s journey, we are faced with multiple seemingly insurmontible odds and come out on top. Vauthry’s Sineater Guard fall, he himself becomes the last one. The night returns to the First. And. We. Fail. We fail due to the machinations of Ascians just as Ardbert’s group did. The Warrior of Light is brought low by the combined aetheric energies of all Lightwardens. G’raha’s plan fails when Emet-Selch appears and leaves us for dead. Sure the enemy was vanquished, Vauthry and Ran’jit for us, Loghrif and Mitron for Ardbert’s group, but the First still falls to a Flood of Light as the eternal day returns and we are left on the cusp of despair. For all our triumphs. For all the schemes. For all the fighting. We fail. And just as Ardbert learns to protect his world with the aid of the Word of the Mother. The Warrior of Light only survives due to the aid of Ryne. An Oracle of Light who has come into her own and not died on the battlefield. We wander the Crystarium afterwards listening to the tales of the people and what they think of the Exarch. Then immediately find our courage to plunge into the depths. Ardbert giving us the strength to move forward, that he didn’t have when he met Elidibus. No more desperation. Just courage in the face of oblivion.
The Tempest is Emet-Selch. We are bridged there by the mythical Bismarck and find a dwindling but prospering Sahagin alternative. Living and getting by the ruins of those who stood before. The one part of the world far, far, far way from the light of the First. From the people and things, he used to care for. We find he made a city out of nostalgia and even the ghosts become almost too real. He is at the depths of his grief in a world, he cannot forget and will not forsake. It is here, the one clinging to the past the most falls to those who look to the future they yet have. He covets the Exarch’s use of rift travel because he knows if he can harness it, he has a chance to go back and save EVERYONE! But, he can’t and he won’t. He can no longer go home and knowing Elidibus’s memory and personality has been slipping since he left Zodiark’s breast. He asks us:
“Remember us...remember that we once lived.”
The Crystal Tower is Elidibus. It is the shining beacon of hope, he wished to become as Emissary. From the day, he chose to become the heart of Zodiark. To every motion to move for or against his breathren. The Allaghan Empire’s greatest achievement. But ruled by an Emperor whose death dropped him into Nihilism. Conquest was nothing but ashes in the mouth of Xande and he wish to consume the Source in Void. Elidibus wishes the return of Zodiark. For it is his duty, there is no solace in memories he can no longer recall. A being frozen in time just as Amon had the Crystal Tower’s previous inhabitence. Telling us repeatedly that no matter what our Echo shows us of his past. It will not avail us to his present. So he takes on the image of the Warrior of Light, playing pretend at the role of the hero having possessed Ardbert’s body before. He speeds up the Heroes Journey. Has us actively fight against our own memories and in the end, his own brother reappears amidst the clash to grant the last Unsundered Peace in his fall. G’raha sealing away his essence in the Crystal Tower to become part of the beacon of hope and light. Though perhaps in his final moments, his true duty was that he was waiting for someone to return to him. Someone he looked up to in his younger years. A shadow in his memories he has clung to and taken into being the example off in their absence.
“The rains have ceased, and we have been graced with another beautiful day. But you are not here to see it.”
