#thank you so much ness!!!!!!!!

[c7arisse]

Erm hi i am a huge Ness fan so if u can Pls draw him!!! I havent seen you draw him yet so id like to see him in ur style thx :D (j’adore ton style artistique!! )

Lend me your power, Shimesekt Patroller!

[miyamiwu]

Kaiser thanking Ness is the bare minimum thing he ought to do, and it's also way past its due.

I'll only be impressed if he actually acknowledges how shitty he's been to Ness. I don't even expect him to apologize! I just want to see him at least look remorseful for all the times he's called Ness trash/loser, for that time he threw his drink on him, for that time he grabbed his hair too hard to vent his own anger, and for the mere fact that he's been aware this whole time that he was manipulating him. How he thinks of Ness as just his dog. A "non-human."

An apology would be unlikely for Kaiser, so I don't expect it. But is it too much to ask to at least see him look regretful???

During the entire breakup scene, his face was never even shown.

And until I see any remorse/regret on that face of his, I'll never know peace

[revenantghost]

Man! I feel bad about being not as present for bookclub as I was last year, and also about how behind on messaging/responding to peeps between migraines and health stuff I am, but the community here and support and kindness has been amazing even as I feel like I'm letting everyone down, and I've just gotta say:

Thank you <3

me after cold kisses: i never ever ever ever want to do so much research for a smau again

also me (for love notes <3): i must connect my computer to my monitor so that I can display cities in japan that college volleyball teams actually traveled to to play games and then pull up google maps to see how realistic it is that a college volleyball team would travel from one area to another (was thinking of making whatever college everyone goes to be from inarizaki's area but that might be in a completely different area from these cities) (this is important for literally nothing but the way in which I am formatting my song reccs for each chapter)

(i've already read 5 reddit forms and an actual bus website about how college volleyball teams travel)

also i've researched graffiti terms and stuff about photography but they both had like one second of my attention. this whole day has been dedicated to music 😭

[palmofafreezinghand]

Omg I love your Cullen Instagram things, PLEASE do Alice or Jasper next 🥺

alice cullen's instagram.

the rest of the series here

[twilightarcade]

if I was a character I would've gotten non binary headcannoned so hard

[seventh-district]

not even gonna tag this properly bc i don't wanna get Involved but i do have some Thoughts i need to get out into the void so here we go

(aaa quick edit: CW for mention/discussion of Boothill leaks)

[rosemirmir]

linky!! what's gotchard about? what do you like about it? i see your posts about it and i love the joy and i wanna know

Ness!! I'd be more than happy to answer <3

A very basic summary of Kamen Rider Gotchard is: Hotaro Ichinose is a highschool student who comes across a belt that turns him into the titular Kamen Rider Gotchard. Alongside getting this belt, these artificial creatures created by alchemy called chemies are unsealed and brought into the world.

Hotaro then gets into a secret alchemy school! After passing a test in a rather unique way. He and his friends in his class: Rinne Kudo, Renge Icho, and Sabimaru Tsuhara have to go out and get the chemies. As well as stop the plans of The Abyssalis Sisters: Atropos, Clotho, and Lachesis. They have a teacher called Minato (we have no idea what his last name is) and an alchemist called Spanner Kurogane is also sent in to help catch chemies.

There's much more to it than that, especially as the show goes on but thats a basic summary.

What I love about gotchard is just about everything... But I think the biggest parts for me are its characters and messages. I grew to adore this entire main cast over the course of the show. They're just all my blorbos now. I love them. (And there's other characters I haven't mentioned for spoiler reasons that I also really adore.)

I also really love the many hopeful and optimistic messages you can find in this show throughout:

How the youth can bring hope to the future, and its important for the older generations to help lead the way for them.

How even when the world is scary, its worth being alive. We can go together and we can accomplish our dreams and see the shining blue sky.

There's also so much I could gush about it from a thematic standpoint that I adore about this show and find just to be excellent, but that all gets into spoiler territory. (Same for the cast too if I wanted to delve any deeper here.)

I also love the chemies! They're just fun little guys. There's even a song thats essentially just the chemy pokerap. (I always think Kamen Rider benefits from having a little guy of some kind.)

And the alchemy theme is just really cool. Kamen Rider OOO got me interested in it, so when they announced this show I was excited. The more I read up on alchemy and its history the more little details I find referenced in show through details in the world. It's so cool.

And it's just such an optimistic show. Which is something I really needed when it began airing last year. <3

[twothpaste]

so how's picky like in your intermission au? it's pretty obvious by now that porky's an immature slimey huckster who needs to be knocked down a peg in it but how does his 17 year old brother compare to him? he does seem to be aware of the nonsense porky tries to pull, so does he learn from his older brother on How To Not Act When You're An Adult?

Picky is literally just some kid who's trying his best, while his dearest relatives perpetually cannibalize each other around him, and it makes me so fucking emo on a primal level. The concept of One Decent Person caught up in a family of absolute ghouls, who loves his brother & parents unconditionally, but realizes with age that he cannot change who they are, much less save them from themselves?? Augh. God!!!!

Intermission Picky - who'd rather ya call him Peter - harbors a lot of increasingly bitter sentiments toward Porky. Learned to be meek and avoid trouble in his brother's shadow, only to end up an awkward avoidant people-pleaser by the time he's a teenager. Hates conflict, struggles to muster any self esteem, gets anxious whenever he's having a good time 'cause he still expects Porky or his folks will somehow ruin it for him. Peter's got a personality like a wet piece of cardboard, and now that he's old enough to recognize why, he absolutely hates it. He makes meager efforts to stand up for himself, which his family usually answers with mockery. He likes spending time with Tracy & Ness, and high school friends, but feels an awful gnawing jealousy in his guts when he recognizes how "normal" their families are by comparison. He learned from his brother that crypto schemes and reddit stocks won't earn him a living, yet given his shitty upbringing, he's kinda terrified he won't have the social skills to cut it at a "real job." Nonetheless, he's trying his desperate darnedest, 'cause he knows there's no other way out for him. Kid's having a very, very rough time being seventeen 😢

Deep down Peter wishes so achingly bad he could convince his family to see the error in their ways. He never wants to stoop to their level, and feels horrid whenever he catches himself thinking hurtful thoughts & repeating their behaviors. Aspires to be more like Ness - easygoing and selflessly kind - even though he lacks the emotional experience or support to do so. He keeps trying to give Porky & his folks second chances out of the sheer goodness of his heart, even though it keeps blowing up in his face. One of these days he'll have to give up, and try to figure out how to be a real person separate from all that trauma & drama. (Whenever I get around to it, the next Intermission AU fic is probably gonna be The Picky One 🥲)

[getosugurusbangs]

Hey

HELLO :)

[afyrian]

AAAAAA WYR CONGRATULATIONS ON 500 OMG !!!!!!! I'M SO SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU GROWING YOU DESERVE THIS AND SO SO SO MUCH MORE <33 CONGRATULATIONS!!! FOR YOUR TAG GAME <3

💛 (what's the most impactful lesson you've learned writing)

💌 (favorite trope)

👓 (what helps you focus while writing?)

I did that from memory so hopefully I remembered correctly 😭😭 BUT AAA CONGRATULATIONS!!! AND AGAIN YOUR AKAASHI FIC WAS SO SO GOOD LITERALLY ONE OF MY FAVORITES THINGS I'VE EVER READ!!! AND I'M ALSO NOT DONE WITH MY PROMPT REQUSTS LMAO WE WILL FINISH THEM TOGETHER!!! ONE DAY!!!

YOU DID GREAT!! i answered the favorite trope one but i love these!! AND THANK YOU SO MUCH!! genuinely that means a lot <3 i was a bit worried the akaashi one wasn’t my best so i’m happy you liked it :D

👓 what helps you focus when you write?

definitely music!! although i am terrible at focusing unless i’m in a specific mood for writing 😭 so i will say music (like i did for homework) even though everything distracts me

💛 what is the most impactful lesson you’ve learned about writing?

that your most intense critic will be yourself. i am SO harsh on myself when it comes to writing. legitimately every chapter of mbb i would write and i’d go ‘this sucks’. and then people will say ‘i loved this chapter’ and i’ll go… so it’s just me??

i do love mbb in retrospect, but in the moment? i felt incredibly insecure about my writing and always wondered when someone would turn away from the series :// even though my writing is not awful and people have expressed enjoyment

[munamania]

real life drama moment eye roll sams apparently struggling bc he wants to move out and is touring this building hes been eyeing but his roommates dont want him to but also apparently theres beef and he just 'doesnt want to be friends with those people anymore' and he was really vague about what that was all abt and his friend group and who he wanted to even still talk to. and well. not my circus not my monkeys....... but im gonna go ahead and keep my feet in two lanes here does that make me a shady bitch. girl i literally dk any details and thats fine but like. idk whatever..

[alienaiver]

Hi Nohr! I always look forward to your writing! 💜

And if it's okay to request, can I pick Satori Tendo + 110 please?

DERU !!!! HI <3333 im so sorry i fell asleep writing this [clown emoji] IJDESFJSE but of course it is!

the heavens rewarded you with: "Where have you been all my life?” “Hiding from you” and i hope i did it justice! it turned out to be 1k words and there's no warnings!! i hope you enjoy this my love <3333333

send me an ask with a random number between 1-210 and a character and i’ll write you a little story!

Tendou sighs as he leans his head further into his palm, observing you through the bushes he’s currently hiding in. He feels rather like a creep, doing this but he loves observing your flying lessons and how you patiently teach the younger fairies to use their wings, always smiling and supporting them however you’re able.

Tendou is from Shiratorizawa, the land of the Oracles. Every year, they send apprentices out to work with a fairy to fulfill their destiny. It sounds much more grandiose than Tendou likes to think it is, but the energy harvested from a fairy finding and accomplishing their life’s mission is what fuels Shiratorizawa and it can be small things, like becoming a teacher, taking care of the sacred plants or it can be big and important things like saving the world or warding off some kind of evil. They haven’t had need for that for a few centuries though, and Tendou is sent to help you find your purpose so that you’re able to fulfill your destiny – not even he knows what it entails, exactly.

Tendou was sent from his home almost a year ago and should’ve contacted you upon arrival but alas, he’s a coward. It’s a new side of him he only learned about recently, upon laying his eyes on you and then promptly turning around.

You seem absolutely stunning and otherworldly. He can’t possibly approach you.

Luckily, you don’t suspect that your apprentice has voluntarily stayed away because you’re not even aware that the time for his arrival is now.

Everyone finds their purpose in life at different ages so there’s never been a predated year in a fairy’s life to start their search. Some are approached when they are kids, some as teenagers and some even so far into adulthood that they may have started questioning their purpose.

But they always show up at the needed time, when the fairy is ready to fulfill such destiny required of them.

Tendou sighs again after he realizes he might be the first to neglect his duty like this. He won’t make Shiratorizawa proud like this. He shudders as he thinks back to his confidence upon leaving – where did that go? He knows he can strange and off-putting – being reminded of the fact his fair share of times growing up but he never imagined it’d impact his job as it does so now.

You say goodbye to the fairies now, bent down at the knees to be at a more level height with them, telling them to enjoy their weekend. Tendou has an inkling to what theme your destiny might involve, but if there’s one thing that he took away from school is that personality doesn’t necessarily equate destiny. His elbow, leaned hazardously on his thigh that is slipping ever so slightly – enough so that he doesn’t realize – is holding up the head that might as well have hearts circling around it. His wings flutter behind him in excitement upon hearing you laugh at a student’s joke and mindlessly, he grabs a piece of chocolate from the little package next to him.

His leg slips on the mossy branch that he’s sitting on and with a surprised yelp, he ends up falling forward, face-first into the ground underneath him. He groans as he tries to correct his spine but it’s too late. The children heard him and they’re all favoring checking out the noise than listening to you.

They call your name in various stages of excitement as one of the braver girls pick Tendou up from the ground. Some of them had been sure he was a beetle; with the way he was laying face first on the ground. Yikes.

“He’s not a beetle at all!” she says, her cheeks puffed out in a pout, turning Tendou this way and that in her grasp. Tendou lets out another groan before reinstating his regular height and size as to get away from the sticky hands he’s been caught in. Sounds of amazement and excitement are heard throughout your class as you finally catch up with them.

“He’s an apprentice!” someone yells and everyone starts to hastily look around at each other, wondering who’s lucky enough to get one while they’re so young. Tendou clicks his tongue as he scratches his head. “I bet it’s Kageyama!” someone yells and Tendou furrows his brows, “it’s not!” he says and he hears you giggle. It’s hard to hold back a pout at that.

“Then who are ya here for!?” another kid yells, a menacing look in his eyes. He sighs, defeated as he slumps a bit. He then lifts his hand to point at you, and almost whispers your name out loud.

You gasp and the kids cheer.

After the endeavor of dealing with all the excited kids, you’re finally alone together. Tendou feels like he’s sweating buckets, trying to contain his awkwardness and general air of uncomfortableness. You relax in the tree next to him, your head rested on your knees. You’re getting to know each other a bit before you turn your head to him, tilted sideways by your position and ask, “where have you been all my life?”

Tendou swallows thickly, looking at anything but you before he decides to hell with it, he should be able to tell you the truth. The moment he decides to be honest with you, his brain also loses the ability to sugarcoat words it seems, as he simply says, “hiding from you.”

This takes you back and your eyes widen for a moment. Then, to Tendou’s surprise, you just start laughing, hiding your face in your knees again. He starts to apologize and tries to explain but you dismiss him with a wave of your hand before you look up at him again, “well I’m glad you’ve stopped hiding, then.”

The smile you send him is so bright that he feels his ears grow red. This is the first time such a gentle smile of yours is directed at him, and he feels the beat of his heart skyrocket. He takes in a mouthful of air, “me too.”

[delusionsofgrandeur13]

[causenessus]

fic authors self rec! ♡ when you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. let’s spread the self-love ♡

I WAS GONNA SAVE THIS TOMORROW BUT I KEEP SEEING OTHERS AND IT'S REALLY REALLY MOTIVATING ME <33 (although i don't think i have five other moots to send this to bc idk who else has done it or had it sent to them...)

HAVE I EVEN WRITTEN FIVE THINGS?? I DEF DO NOT POST A LOT OF ONESHOTS 😭

love notes | suna rintarou

OBVIOUSLY MY NUMBER ONE!!! the premise of the smau is so so important to me <3 i love art so much and graffiti just feels so in character for suna?? and he's such a loverboy?? and the photography plot has just really opened my eyes to the amount of time and effort that goes into the profession!!! oh my god i always think about all the lyrics i picked out <3 and just suna and yn dancing around their problems but still flirting with each other some of my fav chapters definitely have to be chapter 3 and 9 (i have been this 🤏 close to reblogging chapter 9 and just saying paragraph 8 like a thousand times. i wrote that entire little excerpt on a tramway in nyc on the way to roosevelt island) <3 my life while i was writing love notes was really nice and this smau is just so so important to me and i was so happy that others also enjoyed it omg i need to stop yapping <3

try again | sakusa kiyoomi

one of my favorites bc it's basically a self insert 😭😭 it's honestly helped me realize so much about myself and is such a comfort fic for me!! i've read a few fics that seem to capture this feeling of like looking back on a time long ago, which is sort of like fond nostalgia? sort of like if you were married and think back to how you married your spouse, or sitting on a rooftop with your best friend and thinking about how you guys were in your younger days if that makes sense. i love that feeling of it being like your reading a story that happened some time ago, and isn't happening currently, and that's what try again feels like to me. the therapist-client dynamic and messy characters is so important to me, AND U GUYS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT KIND OF SELF INDULGENCE TRAUMA DUMP IS COMING SOON <3 (sorry this sounds so aggressive omg)

see you at the altar | suna rintarou

one of my fav fav drabbles!! it was so sweet and once again just suna being a lover boy is so important to me!! it warms my heart just thinking about being his love and aa <3

new grounds | kageyama tobio

literally sparked my love for kageyama!! and this felt like my first actual smau and i'm still very proud of it and in love with it <3 like it was so cozy and all good vibes!! super self indulgent for me writing about a reader in technical theatre and the friend groups and everything we're so special to me <3 i get so many sort of like just big childhood friend groups vibes from this fic lowk i think i may have to look into making moodboards for it...not to mention how much @cr4yolaas' night shift smau is inspiring me... (shameless plug)(ALSO RYE I HAVE TO SEND THIS ASK TO U!! I NEED TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR SELF RECCS AND THOUGHTS ABOUT YOUR OWN FICS <33 I WILL BE IN YOUR INBOX SOON!!)

cold kisses | kozume kenma

life was also lowk a little enjoyable while writing this smau!! like i remember running around fighting for my life the day of prom because i was trying to get ready AND post a chapter of cold kisses <3 i spent so many nights in a cafe writing this smau, i remember the exact seat of the cafe i was sitting in while outlining the smau, i remember working at my last job on dish, and having to stop and pull out my phone to write down ideas, and my manager passing me by and giving me a weird look <3 sorry i guess i associate times in my life a lot with my works although i think that's kind of cool!! i also loved the entire premise of this smau ofc <3 all sparked by how much figure skating tiktok inspired me <3
