WIND BREAKER OP

[Chapter 2]

At café Pothos, Sakura, Kotoha and Umemiya are having breakfast. Kotoha cooked some omelettes for them, while Umemiya and Sakura are competing to see who can finish first.

— Guys, slow down!— she yells, uselessly trying to stop them. She sighs, and then turns to Sakura and asks— Do you play guitar, Saku?

Sakura looks at her and asks, with a mouthful of omelette:

— Why you asking me that?

She looks at him, and then points at the guitar case right next to him.

— Well I thought that, since Ume is in the school band, I could give him my old guitar— he says, hiding his face because of the blushing.

—Awwwwww, Saku— shouts Umemiya— There's no need to. We have guitars to spare in the band room.

— Yeah, it's kinda obvious that a band would, at least, have a guitar— points out Kotoha— And you still didn't answer my question. Do you play guitar or not?

Sakura stops for a moment, then he takes out the guitar and starts tuning it.

— So you do— says Kotoha, excited— Could you play something for us?

— What?! No— shouts Sakura, embarrassed at the request.

— Please— says Umemiya with puppy eyes— how about you play us your favourite song?

Both of them continued pressuring more and more, until Sakura finally gave in. He starts playing:

["Zettai Reido" (Absolute Zero) original by Natori](Opening for the anime of Wind Breaker)

Nakigoe, touku iki wo awasete, mouichido

Sonna, bokura no mirai o tsuyoku negau uta

Kakumei zenya, bokutachi no koe wa

Yoake mae ni kakikesareteiku

Nega, ego, shitto, kudaranai akui

Sore sura mo nomikonda, suupaa hiiroo

Ikitsugi datte, girigirina bokura wa

Mokutome, awasete aizu shite

Koe ni naranai koe ga, tashika ni kikoeteita nda

Iyaiya, sono ai o mamoru tame ni

Ima, hitsuyouna no wa sonna iiwake janaize

Kimerareru koto no nai, arifureta mirai o

Zenbu, moyashitsukushite zettai rei do

Riyuu mo teisai mo kankei nai

Mou, furasshu bakku ando disu komyunikeeshon!

Kitto, bokura fuanteina enchousen jou

Kikoeta, itsunobi no esuooesu

Sou, nan do datte

Kurikaeshite yo beibee, jigoku no naru hou e

— That was amazing Saku!— says Kotoha.

— It was, right?— adds Umemiya, excited— Are you sure you don't want to join the ba--

At that moment, a boy wearing an eye patch burst into the café. Kotoha instantly turns around to greet him, but ,before she could say his name, the boy walks up to Sakura and says:

— Name's Leonardo d'Caprio, and I just want to say, you have an amazing voice. Would you be interested in forming a band with me?

— Huh?— exclaims Sakura, not noticing the compliment— Are you dumb or something? Who even are you?

— Didn't you hear me?— asks the boy— Name's Leonardo d'Caprio.

Sakura ponders for a second and then says:

— So an exchanged student. He-llo my Na-me is Sa-ku-ra. It is a plea-su-re to me-et y-ou.

— No, no. I was actually born here in Japan— says the boy— Both my parents are also Japanese, actually.

— Huh? Are you playing tricks on me?— asks Sakura, embarrassed by his bad English.

After that, Umemiya intervines saying:

— You must be Suo Hayato, right?

— Yes, some people do call me that— says the boy.

— Well... if you're thinking of joining a band, the school band is more than welcome!— Umemiya says smiling.

— Really? Are you also in that band, "Sa-ku-ra"?— says Suo, mockingly.

— Stop joking around! If you know Japanese, then there's no reason for you to be saying my name like that!— yells Sakura— And, for your information, I haven't decided yet.

— Come on, Saku!— pleads Umemiya.

— I'll think about it once I see the other members, understood?— says Sakura, not noticing the mess he just caused.

Both Umemiya and Kotoha stop for a second. Then, Kotoha says:

— Well... Here's the thing...

— There aren't exactly any other band members— says Umemiya, embarrassed of his forgetfulness— There are no second years interested in joining, and the third years can only act as coaches, as per school rules.

— Huh?!— exclaims Sakura— And you only say that NOW?!

— However— continues Umemiya— If both of you join the band, I'm sure more will follow.

Sakura sighs, and then, he turns to Suo and asks:

— Can you play any instrument?

— The bass— he answers.

— Can you sing?— Sakura asks.

— I can, mostly just slow songs, but it depends on my mood— Suo answers one last time before asking a question himself— Do YOU know how to play an electric guitar, Sakura?

— Yes, I do— says Sakura.

— Then let's join the band together— says Suo, with a smile on his face.

Sakura sighs, smashes his head on the table and then says:

— I hate to agree with him... but I'm in.

— YUUUUUPPIIIIIII!!— shouts Umemiya, overjoyed.

— However...— continues Sakura— If there isn't at least 3 other members within 2 months of school starting, I get to join the Fighting Club instead.

Umemiya ponders for a bit and then responds:

— All right it's a deal! But, be informed, I won't make it easy on you, Saku.

— Do your worst!— responds Sakura.

asuka ask game? pick your favorite one

ok so i do enjoy asuka guiltygear but i have been thinking REALLY hard about asuka tekken as of late so we're talking about her today

also this took me WAY too long to post i apologize but it Is out here so yaaaay

favorite thing about them:

ok so legally i have to mention asuka's tekken 8 design because motherfucker WHAT were they thinking with that one. what the fuck was the inspiration. but i love it so much i cannot lie

other than that, i really enjoy her rivalry with lili and how moderately insane that bit has gotten, and i like how they've kept her a character who is a) defensively focused in her gameplay even among the generally aggressive play of t8, and b) has a generally down-to-earth feel to her despite. Everything. happening in tekken

least favorite thing about them:

so i was actually talking to a friend about this recently and she explained my feelings really well, its like. asuka feels like the protagonist of another story that isnt being told.

it feels like she has so much stuff that COULD be a really interesting plot focus for her but it just. hasnt been? like everything between her and feng COULD be so neat but its just been sort of...by the wayside for the past few games in favor of keeping up with the mishimas (new sitcom there btw)

favorite line:

asuka's quotes are fun but most arent super noteworthy unfortunately? its mostly pretty standard fare for fighting game open and win quotes unforch :( i will say though, i do really enjoy this win line in t8 from her:

It's not good to fight all the time. Well, see ya!

bc like. girl. what do you think youre out here doing rn. girl please

(note: i dont speak japanese so i couldnt say anything towards this, but i wonder if asuka speaks with a kansai accent/dialect in game? her being from osaka and all, itd be a cool little addition)

brOTP:

omg actually ive seen stuff between leo and asuka that's been fun before i really enjoy that, iirc theyre not super close in the main canon but i wanna say in the non-canon webcomic theyre friends? i think thats right? either way its a fun concept

OTP:

asulili...uwoagh........

fellas is it gay to buy your rival's dojo and fill it entirely with roses to get their attention? certainly not. certainly.

i do wish we saw some amount more narrative tension between them since most of it has sort of dissolved by t8 but i do think theyre really cute and as mentioned before i really do enjoy their whole bit its awesome

SHOUTOUT ASULILI WEEK BTW I DONT HAVE THE TIME TO PARTICIPATE BUT I AM HYPED ABOUT ITS EXISTENCE

nOTP:

i do not think i have been around long enough to see another pairing for asuka, let alone one i dislike, so i cannot answer this question LMAO

random headcanon:

spun my mental wheel of headcanon topics and it wouldnt stop spinning for like half an hour unfortunately so im just telling you that i think asuka would play baiken or may in strive

unpopular opinion:

i still havent been here long enough to know whats unpopular regarding her :,) although i think in terms of gameplay i think she's cooler than most people believe, though i do agree that her current iteraiton in t8 isnt very strong within the meta unforch :(

song i associate with them:

i can nigh on guarantee that it's because ive been listening to this song while thinking about her really hard recently but absolute zero by natori (banger btw go watch the music video it goes unbelievably hard), i think the lyrics arent entirely unfitting though!!!

favorite picture of them:

i really like this profile art option for her, the posing is fun and the textures on the clothing are really impressive

and then also i have to mention her preset 3 outfit which i LOVE SO SO MUCH

(apologies as i cant find a better example pic and do not feel like opening t8 at 2 in the morning on this day)

[defeateddetectives]

had the year end fic review meme brewing in the drafts and forgot all about it until now so for my own reference and posterity's sake: 2k23 edition (while its still uh january!)

apparently i used to do this every year for a while and then had several years of writerly drought so here's manifesting more words for the years ahead!! as with previous years, using metrics from ao3

Total number of completed stories: 8

Total word count: ~8k or so

Fandoms written in: drrr!! (gasp), project k, jjk, natsume yuujinchou (really truly bar revival 2k23 or die trying!!!!!)

Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you'd predicted? the last few years had totally sapped me creatively so the bar was on the floor. more than expected by that metric even if much less than i had relative to years before that.

What's your own favorite story of the year? kirigami probably! i guess the good thing about doing this a month into the new year is i dont have to mysteriously redact the yuletide reveal anymore :)

Did you take any writing risks this year? i posted drrr!! fic after ages and that wasnt bb gangsters-centric! and tried my hand at jjk characters' voices (posted only a tip of that iceberg) which was ~adventurous even though i still dont rly have a handle on em! birthright was a risk bc it was a total shot in the dark about a dynamic we havent even seen play out yet??? (more matoba siblings lore when, ms. midorikawaaaa)

Do you have any fanfic or ofic goals for the New Year? just telling myself to keep writing, dont overthink it, and remember everything you write will generally sound awkward and clunky after reading it for the 100th time without stepping away

My best story of this year: i never have an objective measure on this so my fave(s) are typically the best to me

My most popular story of this year: parthian shot & saccades are tied at this moment by ao3 kudos science if we're going by that!

Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: nothing stands out over the year

Most fun story to write: a few come to mind. though it was a v tiny memefill, i had a lot of fun with where the hours bend and it came very easily! fun fact: i was in the vicinity of houjicha cheesecake at the time and it subliminally crept into the fic which i only realized much later :')

more beautiful than night was also written amidst a self-indulgent single-sitting whirlwind with so much love and really felt like going back to basics because 2nd person mkiz nonsense is my brain's default state of being apparently <3

kirigami was wildly fun in a very different way like a puzzle i needed to crack and couldnt step away from until i did

Story with the single sexiest moment: mayhaps natori shuuichi ready to throw down at his first appearance in kirgami :D while maybe not what most people would call sexy, the entire dynamic and vibe throughout (anguished repressed bidirectional longing and all) was very sexy To Me!

Story that shifted my own perceptions of the characters: wound up contemplating izaya and celty's absolutely bonkers dynamic via zero sum game in a way i dont think i had before

Hardest story to write: kirigami bc of the mental gymnastics of remixing that original vol 28 canon arc that is an absolute masterpiece in storytelling in its own right. i was very intimidated about doing it justice and as a gift-fic as well! the months leading up to yuletide were also bananas overall so, all things considered, it's a miracle that it came through on time!!

parthian shot also comes to mind bc the current canonverse exorcists dynamic, as delicious as it is, feels so frail and tenuous and i find myself wanting to handle it with the utmost care and respect when trying to show it

Biggest Disappointment: the stories i invested a lot in, i wound up fairly happy with! [endless number of ancient wips glare at me in disappointment]

Biggest Surprise: bar revival 2k23 in its entirety tbh :') also probably the extent to which i fell into jjk/stsg hell but i guess you cant really tell from the finished works for better or worse!!!
