Hello merry Christmas :) I saw request was open and was wondering if you could do scenario where the brothers and Solomon (separately) celebrate the holiday with mc and their family in the human world ? Thank you and happy new year! :)
Merry Christmas, Anon! 🎄🎁
It's been a while since I've gotten a request and I really wanted to finish it before Christmas is over in my timezone and I just barely made it ^^;
I hope you like it!
***
The Brothers + Solomon at Your Family's Holiday Party
Lucifer is the perfect party guest. He makes effortless conversation and can get along with pretty much everyone. As devilishly handsome as he is, Lucifer looks good in an apron and he'll definitely take advantage of that. He'll help in the kitchen if needed, he might even help out with the dishes and somehow not get any soapy water on his expensive looking clothes. Throughout the night, he keeps you near as much as possible, with an arm slinked around your waist or a hand in yours, gentle but possessive gestures. It's not that he thinks your family will take you away from him, he just wants everyone to know you're well taken care of. Your family may wonder how you got such a catch, but it's very clear that he's chosen you.
Mammon is a favorite with your older family members, though they might not have known what to make of him at first. He joins in on their card games and loses just as many games as he wins. He tries to keep you near him for good luck and that does seem to work, hopefully the two of you end up with a small pile of riches to show for it, be they candies or cash. He'll insist on bringing the flashiest gifts, but somehow he knows exactly what each of your family members would like, even though he hadn't met any of them before the holiday. Mammon's natural confidence and model good looks make him the center of attention at your family party, and his ego will inflate accordingly. Despite all this, he is a very good party guest, and it is clear to everyone that he adores you.
Leviathan is very shy with your family at first. It takes all of his strength to make the most basic responses to their questions and even then, he beats himself up inside for being "weird". If you get pulled away, he panics. Don't worry too much about him, though. He's stronger than both of you think. He'll gravitate toward the kids table, maybe building Legos with them to soothe himself or starting an impromptu Mario Kart tournament. Of course he's a champion gamer and he shows everyone all his special techniques to get a high score. Levi becomes the new favorite of all the kids. As you leave for the night you'll have several cuties telling you to never break up with him. He's blushing, he didn't realize he made that much of an impression (also he's internally freaking out because you breaking up with him didn't occur to him until now, please promise you won't!)
Satan, like Lucifer, is a perfect party guest. No one would ever know he's actually so guarded and calculating. He's taking mental notes of every interaction the two of you have with your relatives. If any of them seem not quite right (backhanded compliments, rude remarks veiled with insincere smiles) he files away that information for later. If he finds your family to be relatively harmless, he's relieved. Satan has a good handle on his anger, but sometimes he needs a break from all the stimulation so he doesn't have an outburst. If he disappears, you might find him taking a breather with one of your family's furry friends (he's ecstatic if it ends up being a cat). Let him rest until he's ready and he'll come back refreshed and ready to impress your family with his charisma.
You don't have to worry about Asmodeus at all. Even without charming your family members, everyone will love him. He fits in well with the adults, but with the young kids as well. Asmo wants to know all the tea, all the family drama, and he'll give his input on things. He'll especially be on the lookout for any of your childhood photos or stories your family wants to tell. I hope you're comfortable with lots of public affection, because he's another who will keep an arm around your waist the whole evening. He might go as far as sitting on your lap or pulling you down to sit on his, and he'll attack your face with kisses every chance he gets (he'll stop if you ask him to, he promises to be on his best behavior). Please do let him indulge in cuddles a little bit, what's better than snuggling by the fire after dinner as everyone winds down for the night?
With the power of love, Beelzebub is able to quell his normally voracious appetite, and when he does that he basically becomes the perfect boyfriend. He's kind, friendly, AND he eats well? He's constantly complimenting whoever is in charge of cooking, and they'll fill his plate again and again. He'll silently glance toward you to ask if it's ok to take more, and when you nod in approval, he happily digs in. That's another thing, with the way he looks at you, your relatives know it's true love. It's very important to him that you have your special time with your family, his family means so much to him. So he might sit back when you socialize, while the kids try to use him as a jungle gym but he doesn't mind. As long as you're happy with your family, he's happy.
Belphegor is a good party guest when he sets his mind to it. It's probably best to keep him away from plush surfaces, especially when there are lulls in the festivities, because he will tend to doze off (I remember reading someone's headcanon a while ago that Belphie is the type to seek out the party's designated baby sleeping room and crash there, and I totally agree). If this happens, you can tell your family he's suffering from jetlag (whether this is true or not). He's definitely the most subdued of all of the brothers, but he's a surprisingly good conversationalist and gets along well with your family. He may lightly tease you (he still is a bit of a brat) which your family might take as a good sign of his affection for you. Though he's no stranger to loud family gatherings, Belphie will need a few days to recover from all the socializing, so I hope you don't mind him napping longer than usual.
Please, for the love of Diavolo, keep Solomon away from the kitchen during your family's party. Everyone will thank you. Solomon's gifts are the most creative, definitely embued with magic, and I don't think he'd be able to help himself from doing a few minor magic tricks for the kids before the party is over. He'll make an excuse, it was a simple trick, anyone could do it. But you'd know the truth. He chats freely with your family, no shortage of fond remarks from him about you. It's been so long since Solomon has spent this much time around human families, he's taking it all in and enjoying having you by his side. If you were worried about the party going smoothly, you don't have to. Just, maybe toss out that plate of cookies for Santa and replace them, our witty sorcerer may have tampered with the recipe when your back was turned.

Test Results!
Hq Characters comforting you about your scores
Note: Not proofread. I wrote this for everyone who got any kind of grade back and felt like they didn’t do so well. I wrote more of how hq chatacters would comfort u but thats okay. First fic so sorry if this was bad lol!!!
Info: gn! reader!!! A minuscule hint of angst but mostly comfort/fluff
Characters: Hinata, Kenma, Sugawara, Kuroo, Kageyama
Tumblr media
Hinata Shoyo
I feel like Hinata would be very reassuring and would be one of those people who would joke a bit by saying his score was lower or something like that. He would be very polite and try to cheer you up if you’re super bummed out.
You glared at the big red mark at the top of your paper. Shock and dissatisfaction filled your body as your eyes scanned for the mistakes you made. As you calculated your score out of a 100%, your orange haired friend appeared, breaking you out of your little trance.
“Hey name,” Hinata greeted with a questioning tone, “what happened ?” He had noticed your distressed state and wanted to check up on you.
“Hi Shoyo.” you quietly greeted back. You looked up at your concerned friend and you felt your heart swell up. You had never done this badly on a test and felt horrible! You couldn’t even imagine how much of a let down you could be to your parents. “I’m really sad because I didn’t get the score I wanted even after all my studying!” You explained with stress evident in your voice.
Hinata looked down at your paper “ Name, don’t feel down, if it makes you feel better I got a way lower score than you.” He pats his hand on your shoulder as a way to soothe your unease. “I know you studied really hard and the next test you’ll ace,” Hinata exclaims, “I just know it!”
“Thanks Sho, I really appreciate it.” You responded to his words, his brown eyes filled with passion and certainty.
“You could also get tutoring with me and Kageyama if you want!” Hinata suggested.
“No thanks,” you chuckled, “I don’t want to overwhelm and burden Yachi even more.”
“Hey!!”
Kenma Kozume
I believe that Kenma would not really be on the comfort side and more of the “idrc I wont judge you for that kind of thing” side. Besides being a super smart setter and strategist, I’m not entirely sure if he would be a perfect score or close to a perfect score type of guy.
The library was nice and quiet, only a few people there besides yourself. You opened up your laptop, biting your nails while clicking for your score. You had heard your professor dropped grades for the quiz that you weren’t so sure on. You studied real hard because of that unsureness. The white illumination from the computer shined onto your face as you opened up your grade from the quiz. Your heart dropped and a feeling of frustration came over you.
“Name.” Kenma quietly called out to you, walking up to your table.
Shoot, you totally forgot that you promised to meet up with Kenma at the library to study for a midterm today. You were too caught up with shock from your results to remember.
“Hi Kozume!” You tried greeting him with some excitement to mask how you were truly feeling. As he was unpacking his study material and getting ready to review, he was talking to you about a new video game he wanted to buy. Usually you would look at him or ask questions to keep up with the conversation, but his observant self noticed something. You were a bit distant today.
“Name,” Kenma asked with suspicion,” are you okay? You seem a bit off.” His vigilant cat-like eyes seemed to catch everything.
You sighed as you hesitantly turned your laptop to face his eyes, the screen showing your quiz score. “I totally bombed that test and I feel so awful about it.” you mumbled as you looked down at your lap with shame.
“Hey,” Kenma stated firmly, “don’t feel ashamed I wont judge or anything stupid like that.” His golden orbs connected with yours. “If you want, we can study together more often so you can feel more confident on tests.” He suggested, genuinely wanting to help you.
“Yeah that sounds really nice.” you said with appreciation. You were really grateful for him saying he isn’t judging you. You thought that was really sweet.
Sugawara Koushi
I believe he is a person who would be super comforting and if you asked him to help you study for next time, he would be on top of it and low-key a bit strict. I love suga smm!!!
You were right next to Sugawara when you got your test outcome. You were so excited and filled with confidence when checking your test. Those emotions all got thrown out the window and were replaced by surprise and panic.
“Oh my gosh!!” You cried out. You didn’t expect to get this low. What should you do now? Should you ask your teacher for any extra credit or something? Many different questions were flashing through your head.
Sugawara had noticed this and wanted to check up on you. “Hello? Name?” he asked, “are you okay?” He saw the dispirited facial expression you had and connected the dots. Sugawara then saw small tears and knew he had to do something to console you. He understood how hard you worked for this quiz so he wanted to acknowledge that.
“Hey,” Sugawara looked into your eyes, both of his hands on your shoulders, “please don’t cry, you worked so hard!” He really felt like hugging you and wanted to propose a really good idea.
His tone was soft and reassuring, “We could study together for the next test, yeah?” Sugawara embraced your downhearted figure and held you in a quick hug. “I wont promise that I wont be a little strict or firm, is that okay?”
You giggled at his statement, “I would love that.” You sniffled and felt that you could really get the score you wanted on your next quiz.
Kuroo Tesuroo
Certified Chem Nerd!!!! Would try to cheer you up with his good flattery skills and he is a good teacher so I think he would be an amazing tutor as well! Love him!
You opened up your laptop, hoping and begging for one thing. That would be a score above a 90% on this midterm test for chemistry. You knew your friend Kuroo would probably get an 100%, so you hoped to get something near or exactly that score. You clicked the test result link and your eyes went wide.
You felt your heart start to speed up and your head felt a bit lighter. You wanted to think that your site was bugged or something, but after the 20th time refreshing, to no avail it was the same super low score you didnt even imagine of getting. You really wanted to ask what Kuroo got because you were so confused on how you got certain questions wrong and needed guidance.
You pulled out your phone and ringed him up. “Hi, this name?” Kuroo asked with a chirpy tone. You could hear some sort of video game ost with aggressive button clicking in the background. He’s probably with Kenma right now.
“Yeah heyy Tetsu,” you quietly responded with a bit of shame in your voice, “ are you busy right now? I really need to ask you about some things from the chem midterm.”
“Ohh that thing? Sure I got you.” Kuroo replied. The next thing you hear is something that Kuroo is telling to Kenma and some ruffling, probably from a bag. “So what do you need help with, Name?”
“Ohh a couple of things,” you said with a bit of hesitant embarrassment, “I got a really low score…” You fiddled with the hem of your shirt as you spoke.
“I appreciate you coming to my name, you’re a super hard worker and I admire you for that.” Kuroo stated with nothing but honestly in his voice. “I could help you since I think i’m pretty good at chemistry,” Kuroo suggested, “wanna meet up later?”
You jumped up and down and felt so lucky to have a friend like Kuroo. “Yes omg thanks!!!” You blurted out, cheeks a but red from how eager you sounded. But honestly you didn’t care and were super thankful for this opportunity.
“Anything for your name.” Kuroo chuckled with sincerity and hung up the phone.
Kageyama Tobio
As much as I hate to say this, with all love, kageyama is not the sharpest tool in the shed in terms of academics. He would do that thing like he did hinata and boasts how he got a lower score just to be competitive. But in all honesty, I don’t think he would care about it because volleyball for life lol.
You got a low score on the entrance exam for high schools. You were super disappointed in yourself, not able to go to your dream school Shitorizawa. You wanted to tell Kageyama and ask him what he got since he most likely got a scholarship for his amazing setting skills.
“Kageyama!” You called and ran up to him. “Hey,” you asked, “where are you choosing to go to highschool?” Maybe he got to go to Shitorizawa and set for the best of the best?
“Karasuno because I heard Coach Ukai is coming back,” Kageyama responded curtly.
“Wait,” you were shocked he didnt say Shitorizawa and wanted to know more, “You didnt get a scholarship?”
Kageyama sighed as he explained his side of his experience “I bombed the academic test ( not shocked btw) and a scholarship never came so im going to karasuno.”
“Ohhh that makes sense,” you said, “I got a pretty low score so I dont even know which one I want to go to.”
“Hah I probably got a lower grade that you!” Kageyama laughed.
“How is that a flex? “ You giggled as you walked home together.

Twilight Eyes Project: "Will They Pass or Fail?" (part 1)
Previous episodes analyses
One might be surprised to find that even a light-hearted, whimsical episode as this has enough material to fill up two posts in this series.
And so we start with a new scene added by the anime, of the Forgers walking to Eden to see the results of Anya's interview. He appears with nervous Twilight eyes, focused to the front.
Tumblr media
Just then, Yor's bracelet breaks. He turns to look at her with his eyes in the same expression, before he tries to put on a comforting smile. He's too nervous for it to be effective. Then Yor worries again, and his eyes widen in response, before he sees the source of her distress was a black cat crossing their path.
Tumblr media
Yor making a deal out of something he considers unimportant adds to his uneasiness, so all he can offer is a slightly impatient smile. His eyes try to reassure; his brows betray his feelings.
Tumblr media
Anya accidentally steps on poop, and all he can do after a quick surprised expression is smile awkwardly with Yor.
Tumblr media
Catching up to the manga, all efforts to keep himself together crumble as he realizes, in shock, that Anya didn't pass.
Tumblr media
Is this the end of Operation Strix?
His horrified expression lingers on as they start heading off.
Tumblr media
A little bonus: one of my favourite of his exaggerated expressions.
Tumblr media
In the anime, Anya says the "got rejected" part out loud, prompting Loid and Yor to reply as if it was just another day.
I find his position here interesting. In his mind, this was the first big step of Operation Strix, and right now it looks like it has failed. Twilight supposedly has no reason to stay, no reason to keep up appearances if Loid Forger is to disappear off the face of the earth soon.
Yet, we see him nervous. We see him shocked, disheartened, but when Anya looks ready to cry, he tries to console her with a smile.
Tumblr media
There is no "no feelings attached" here, as shown by his general reactions. But he truly doesn't blame Anya, nor does he want her to feel guilty over not passing. Even if he is to leave, he makes sure the child's feelings are spared.
Some interesting changes in his eyes in the next scene. Twilight eyes as he looks at the waiting list, with Anya's name at the very top.
Tumblr media
Wide, real eyes and a blush (!) as Henderson tells him Anya still has a chance to be accepted.
Tumblr media
His eyes keep an honest expression as he questions how they scored so high after the near aggression they showed in the interview. They're not narrowed, not calculating, nor are they trying to appease someone. He's genuinely wondering.
Tumblr media
Especially when we compare it to his absolute "you're kidding me" look when Henderson tells him they scored high because Loid "protected" Swan from a mosquito.
Tumblr media
A quick, confused look as Yor is… Yor,
Tumblr media
and then, still "real eyes" as Henderson encourages them about Anya's place at school, right before Loid thanks him.
Tumblr media
Back to Twilight eyes as he contemplates Henderson's and Swan's potential usefulness in his mission.
Tumblr media
Back home, as they await for the decisive phone call, we get an anime addition of Anya doing a "ritual dance" to help her luck getting into Eden, and of Loid looking quite relaxed, albeit slightly amused as he wonders what in the world his daughter is even doing.
Tumblr media
The phone finally rings! And we get a major difference in the adaptation: In the manga, Twilight answers it with focused Twilight eyes, before we're treated to a view of him waiting with bated breath and wide eyes.
Tumblr media
The anime switches it to less anxious "Twilight eyes" before they narrow as he hears the final answer from Eden.
Tumblr media
A quick moment of him looking all too serious as he nearly teases the others about what he was just told…
Tumblr media
... and Celebration! Anya passed! Wide, happy, real eyes as he tells them the good news!
Tumblr media
They stay on as he picks Anya up to congratulate her.
Tumblr media
They get a little softer when he turns to Yor, thanking her for her help.
Tumblr media
Franky appears to join the celebration, and after a few drinks he starts spilling too much info, and Twilight reverts to annoyed Twilight eyes as he warns Franky that he's saying too much.
Tumblr media
Franky calls out Loid for… not getting drunk, and Loid responds with a professional, albeit impatient in the anime, look of "Twilight eyes".
Tumblr media
Franky makes Anya a promise Loid doesn't want to keep and Loid throws him another impatient look with "Twilight eyes".
Tumblr media
Anya asks him to play Princess Rescue with her, and he immediately turns it down. His eyes are narrowed, but not with the tenacity of "Twilight eyes". Those look closer to Loid eyes, though with a flavour of "this is my strict father face".
Tumblr media
Franky urges him on to play with her, and he's back to impatient Twilight eyes.
Tumblr media
Which stay on as he realizes he has no choice but to go along with Anya's request.
Tumblr media
Thus, the weirdest mission of his life is on!
(no manga spoilers please)
(continued in part 2)

Koleda (and other Belobog Heavy Industries) headcanons bc I am so very normal™️ about her
Tumblr media
Her favorite food is cake (pretty obvious) with her favorite flavor being chocolate. She also really likes brown sugar flavored teamilks, and Ben will bring one back for her without fail every time he goes to pick some up for the higher ups.
She likes to be on schedule. If something in her usual routine changes, her fuse is a lot shorter when dealing with trivial tasks
Koleda has a teddy bear that she loves very dearly and sleeps with every night. It was a gift from Grace after her dad disappeared
Grace does Koleda’s hair every morning. If she needs a touch up during the day, she usually asks Grace for help. In the case that she can’t find Grace, Ben and Anton are capable of fixing it up instead (Grace taught them how)
She does wear her eyepatch for a reason. When she was young, she wandered into a hollow and was injured by an ethereal. It became permanently corrupted and as a result, she has severe light sensitivity in that eye. It does look pretty cool though.
She and Anton create training regimens together pretty regularly. The 100 Bangoo single-handed pushup idea came from an off-handed joke Koleda made, but Anton took it literally.
When out at cafes together, Grace and Koleda usually order for each other. Koleda started it as an opportunity to order more “sophisticated” sweets and coffees, but it eventually developed into a game of seeing if they could pick out and surprise each other with dishes the other would enjoy.
Ben attempts to tutor Koleda with math by letting her calculate the totals in his finance reports. He calls her over with the excuse of “double checking his work”, letting her try to work it out, and then showing her how he got his total on a separate sheet of paper. She has not been correct a single time, but she appreciates his consideration.
Grace won’t let Koleda have a cat at home, but in exchange she allows Koleda to name every single one of her machines (keeping up the tradition Khors started).
If both are working on site that day, Anton and Koleda start the morning off with a footrace between the two of them (and most of the company spectate it). The tradition began after Anton asserted he was the fastest runner in all of Belobog to a group of his subordinates, which earned a scoff from the president who just happened to be passing by. After a short back and forth, the duo decide to settle it with a race the next morning. Word spread through the company fast, and there was a sizable crowd waiting for them near the storage area the following morning. Bets were placed (the pool was pretty even, but skewed in the president’s favor just slightly), and the two took the starting line. After a shot from Grace’s nailgun, they began their three laps around the work area. Koleda pulls ahead at a frightening speed, and finishes a full fifteen seconds before Anton. He demands a rematch every day, and the board they used for the firing (nail) gun keeps score of how many times they’ve raced to this day. They’re up to the 4th board full of nails now, and only new hires bet against Koleda. None of the employees considers a work day truly “beginning” until their race finishes.

ROUND 26: AKANE VS. TOV
Everything is shaking. Around her, nothing is clear anymore, lines blurring like watercolor, colors dissipated as if they were particles of dust, the blinding lights shining between the clouds. She can barely hear: everything is loud, too loud, and it's ringing in her ears like the buzzing of a thousand muttering aliens. It feels like they are judging her: no, them. Her opponent was no different: they both had the same fate of losing everyone in the blink of an eye.
If she dies, Naz will go crazy. She'd change completely. She sees her as pure: or at least, purer than her. She doesn't want that to change. If she survives, the next round won't give her certainty. It's something she's learned long ago: in this competition, tomorrow is never certain. She never knows what will happen. She just wants to rest: bury herself in the comfort of something soft, like a cloud, be softly illuminated by stars so as not to be left in complete darkness, and of course, stay together with Naz: forever. And know that eternity is promised.
But no: never has she considered a life where everything is perfect. It's out of her league, out of her possibilities. The heavy fog around her life will never rise. She's older than most contestants, she'd know best escape is impossible.
No.
Escape is possible.
But not for her.
Never for her.
Beneath the muffled sounds of still playing instrumentals, that were already blending in her ears, she hears the scores tallying. She doesn't dare to look back: she's afraid of what she'd see. She wants to die not knowing what is happening to her, if she loses. The sound of the verdict calculating is foreign to her compared to her opponent. Her second round was stopped because of a double kill, and she was left without the experience. It feels new to be on the stage, despite not being.
Her eyes gently closed, sparkly white makeup in it's full glory, adorned by the stage lights. Her performance was good. Was it good enough? She could almost feel Kiba's scrutinizing gaze on her. They were already upset with her, because she cut her hair without permission and mauled the original dress she was given, choosing her own white gown, like a bride to the altar, like a corpse to the funeral. It could mean anything. Nothing and everything at once. It would start up controversies: perhaps that's what her owner wanted her to do anyways. She's already brought them enough fame. And unfortunately, their mannerisms got to her. She's even chosen a calm song. But no: it was for her own peace of mind. It felt like the lyrics were familiar, like a warm embrace of her lover, guarding her from the scarred world.
I promise you, soon, the autumn comes.
She reached for her pocket. Just in the case. Her finger placing itself oh so gently onto the trigger.
To steal away each dream you keep.
The sound stopped, foreshadowing the announcement.
Breathe.
Breathe.
Breathe.
Curiosity killed the cat.
And so, her face fell. 50/50, huh?
Anything can happen. But she knows what will. And she knows what she wants.
She begins walking: slow, but long purposeful strides along the stage, down the stairs, her eyes stuck to a certain someone. They escaped for too long: death was imminent. She didn't want to go down alone, so simple. Everyone should have imagined that an "ANAKT honor student" would not fall without a fight. No, it wasn't a fight. Because she knew she was about to win everything she wanted, and yet, lose it all, too. She didn't have anything except Naz and her own life, anyways.
The muttering and surprised gasps of the public grew dead silent as a gun was pointed towards guardian Kiba's head. She wanted to do it with a straight, unfeeling gaze, but the ominous tie had put her under pressure. She would've much rather to just lose with a small score, than be in the hands of fate. Fate was never on her side. Between rapidly falling tears, she realized she's not ready to die. There weren't many things waiting for her. But there was one, that was worth millions. She will anyways, so at least she should do something for the upcoming humans that would be put in a disgusting adoption center.
And she pulled the trigger.
Gasps rose again, but she didn't hear them for long, as her own fated bullet pierced through her skull. Blood gushed, and she fell to the ground, her dress' veil flowing gracefully behind her, as if it were a ghost, as if it were a star's tail when it falls out of the sky.
"I love you, Naz."
And so, a shooting star was born.
'A shooting star's meaning is the end of the beggining. Some say, it's a sign of humility, others, that it's about the vastness of the Universe. But for her, it was always the same thing. Even though it's falling, it's up in the sky, like a celestial being, and is a sign of undying love. And yet, the differences in between make such an arduous affection impossible.'

Would Espurr be a good pet? On one hand it's literally a cat, but on the other hand it also has devastating psychic power that could easily be unleashed accidentally. I'm curious to see what your thoughts are on this.
Tumblr media
An espurr, despite their pretty decent score, would not make a great pet in a lot of cases due to the potential damage their biology could present to anyone around them.
Espurrs are, to begin, a great size for a pet. Plus they’re fluffy and cute; they fit the bill as far as looks go. Personality wise, well, they’re a little stoic. It’s said that an espurr’s expression never changes, a symptom of always trying to keep a lid on their psychic powers (Sword).
As you pointed out in your request, espurrs possess some pretty devastating psychic powers (or, at least, that’s what the Pokédex says). Apparently, the psychic power that each espurr does their best to control is strong enough to “send a wrestler flying” (Shield), with a blast radius of 300 feet (Y). This power comes from an organ inside an espurr’s head (which isn’t their brain?), forcing them to hold their ears closed to keep the power from leaking out (X). Unfortunately, espurrs are not always able to contain this power and it cannot be controlled, which bothers them (Y, Shield). It is entirely possible that, because of this, an espurr would not feel comfortable being around others that they could hurt accidentally.
Espurrs’ moves come from this psychic power, but they don’t seem nearly as dangerous as the Pokédex warns. Perhaps this is because these moves are under the control of the pokémon; perhaps they only use a small fraction of their true power? In truth, besides the threat of causing confusion, only Psyshock has a power level above 65.
Overall, it seems that espurrs don’t have a violent bone in their body, and by all appearances would make a great pet. However, accidents do happen with them, and there’s every chance that they could cause a lot of damage unpredictably, especially when they are extra stressed or even asleep. Due to the way the Pokédex is weighed in the score calculation, espurr has been given a B rating, but I wouldn’t recommend it unless you have a lot of practice caring for pokémon with uncontrollable bursts of power. No amount of training can tame an uncontrollable power, so you would always be a big risk.

♡ You both met through you starting a random conversation with him, and because you managed to ask the right questions, he was happy to answer them. The compliments you gave him helped as well. He was practically preening like a peacock the whole time. But there was this...glint in your eyes, a calculating one, like you were trying to figure him out. He was mostly creeped out, but also intrigued, which lead him to give you his phone number so you both can continue talking sometime again. He is not flirting, what are you talking about?
♡ (You didn't put psychology or philosophy in your likes, but since you used them in an example for setting up a conversation, I'm assuming you do like talking about them!) Kaiser would love to talk about psychology with you! He doesn't often meet people who are interested in it like him, and he isn't interested in talking about psychology with just anyone. It's the topic you both end up talking about the most actually. As for philosophy, it depends on the questions you ask him. But normally he doesn't bring up philosophy in conversations.
♡ Kaiser is the opposite of a people pleaser. Even when trying to befriend Ness, he doesn't act like anything other than his brash and confidant self. He has strong opinions and values and refuses to compromise on them. Rather than change himself to fit in with everyone else, he would rather change the world to suit what he wants. An exaggeration, but you get the gist. Perhaps this quality would be attractive to you.
♡ Kaiser will tell you he doesn't celebrate holidays, but won't protest if you urge him to celebrate with you. Especially if you invite him to do something with you on Christmas. He was happy to make snow angels and gingerbread houses with you, watch a Christmas movie, eat at a nice place. He doesn't tell you his birthday until you both start dating, so at the time you didn't know when his birthday was. You couldn't help but notice that he looked pensive that day, but chose not to comment on it as he took your hand, pulling you towards the Christmas decorations to take some selfies.
♡ He's never tried ice or roller skating before. You offered to teach him, promising that it'll be fun once he gets used to it. He agreed because why not? In hindsight, he should have called you a liar and refused your offer. He never gets the hang of it. He's clutching your arm the whole time for balance, and even then, he falls a few times (for you /j). He can run, he can kick a ball and score goals, but skating is not for him. He gives up after three failed sessions and falling flat on his ass.
♡ So you like straightforwardness (long ass word). Luckily for you, Kaiser is very straightforward. When he wants to tell someone something, he's very direct about it. If he doesn't want to reveal something, he simply won't. Take that how you will. This trait of his really helped speed up his confession process. Once he realised he liked you, which took a few months because his emotions are either repressed or too tumultuous for him to figure out, he started preparing for the best (and most extra) confession you've ever seen. On Valentine's day, because he's cheesy like that.
♡ He likes that you tend to think logically, because he does too. This makes communication between the two of you easier, as you're usually on similar wavelengths. He doesn't think displaying emotions are a sign of weaknesses, but he does find them unnecessary or even a bother sometimes. He doesn't think his emotions should affect his performance, just like you. Get therapy, the both of you.
♡ You like cats? That's great, Kaiser is one. You know those golden retriever boyfriends? Kaiser is NOT one of them. He's the black cat in the relationship. Kaiser strikes me as an ambivert rather than a full extrovert, he needs his alone time sometimes. He's reserved and mysterious, or at least somewhat secretive, about his past. Also, he would mess with your things in front of you when you're distracted and he wants your attention. Smiles when you slap his hand away.
♡ Kaiser also hates it when it's too sunny and dreads getting sunburnt, so he brings a parasol with him when he sees that it's going to be a sunny day. He's a gentleman and holds the umbrella over the both of you so you can be shaded from the sun as well.
♡ Acts of service is one of Kaiser's main love languages! As mentioned in the point above, he likes to do little things for you, especially if you've had a bad day. He'll make you coffee in the morning, carry your things when you both go shopping together, walk just a touch faster than you so he can open doors before you do.
♡ He also loves receiving acts of service, somewhat because he's not that great at taking care of himself? Or rather he just does the bare minimum and sometimes goes into a period of overworking himself. Not great either way. Remind him to take breaks once a while, bring him a snack while he's watching game footage on the screen. He'll melt into a happy mess the moment you leave the room.
♡ Kaiser likes giving gifts. It was a big part of his courting process, his confession and the first few months of your relationship. At first, they're traditional romantic stuff like flowers, a few stuffed toys, sweets and chocolates. As he got to know your preferences over time, his gifts became more personalised to you. Frozen berries especially, since they're easy to buy and you finish them quickly. He'll buy you wigs and costumes for your cosplay too, if you're fine with him buying you expensive things. I say take advantage of his money.
♡ Kaiser also likes physical touch, in the form of always having his hand on you some way or another. On your lap when you both eat together, side by side. Over your shoulders while he waits for you to be done talking to your friends after having lunch together. In your back pocket while you both walk back to his car. He isn't a big hugger or kisser, his affection is in the constant weight on your skin.
♡ "Relatives tell me [...] I worry too much for my future." This is Kaiser we're talking about here. When is he ever not worrying about his future? Even when he was younger and living with his father, he was saving up money to run away in the future. So yes, Kaiser is always thinking about his future, how to gain success and security. He won't tell you not to worry so much, that clearly isn't the philosophy he has, but he will help you to come up with concrete goals and a plan of action, a few backup plans even. To him, you should worry about your future, and take small steps to build the future that you hope for instead of worrying for no reason. That's just anxiety.
♡ You having no problem with telling people when you disagree with them works well for Kaiser actually. He's kinda...into it? Not actual fights of course, just minor disagreements or debates. He treats them like playful arguments. It's enrichment for him. You know the "can we keep arguing it was turning me on" meme? Yeag.
♡ The idea of writing a few realistic headcanons for your dynamic (while still keeping an element of movie magic to it) compelled me so much. This is probably not something most people would opt for, so thank you for giving me the creative liberty. >:)
♡ The way you describe what you can offer in a relationship is so detailed and reminiscent of what one should do in order to be an "ideal" partner. Almost as if you studied the concept. Given Kaiser's motivation to study psychology, he definitely did the same thing, especially since he's genuinely interested in trying out a romantic relationship. He doesn't do anything half-assed; he puts his all into it. Your honeymoon period is passionate and sweet, but with a hint of...coldness and evaluation hidden beneath the surface? Like the period where new lovers are too nervous to show their more authentic selves to each other stretched across months between good morning texts and flowers delivered to your door.
♡ The way you view relationships and speak so nonchalantly about cutting ties with people sounds a lot like avoidant attachment style. And guess what? Kaiser definitely has it too. This spells out doom for the relationship from the beginning, but honestly, I didn't match you with him just to write about a fairytale happily ever after for you both. Because let's be honest, you both are probably constantly on high alert for when things become too vulnerable or if the other party isn't worth the effort you're putting into the relationship.
♡ A long-term relationship for the both of you is going to take a lot of work, even more so than the average couple. It's up to you both to decide whether or not it's worth fighting for.
♡ And even if it doesn't work out, wasn't it beautiful all the same?
Flowers just because, especially roses, iced coffee and silk sheets, matching glasses, bringing each other a snack while working, visiting malls around Christmas to admire the decorations, long discussions, playful arguments as a way of flirting, ironic smirks, testing the reactions of others, sharing earphones on the bus, oversized hoodies, late night drives, city lights from a high rise, visiting a convenience store at 2am, constant hand holding, contagious laughter, emotional walls, passionate love, the it couple
・ ─ ・ ⋯ ・ ─ ⊹ ♡₊˚๑
Im curious, how do u use this info (appearance) to think of a match👀?
I usually look at one's hair colour and go for a character with a hair colour that matches or compliments the requester. So either dark/dark or light/dark but that doesn't say much so. Fashion style is the deciding factor. I will choose a character who matches the requester's aesthetic. Ex: For you, I would match you with Yukimiya Kenyu because of your dark hair and glasses.

Miss Meguca contest (casual outfits), comments
All preliminary rounds are now over! Since there was some variance in how many people voted each round, I'll have to calculate everyone's scores with percentages. So I think the final round won't start until tomorrow. In the meantime, here are the comments:
Round 1
Tumblr media
Let’s Hope Madoka Wins this Thing Again. I want to See an Idol or Maybe a special Surprise Image song round or something.
Most of these outfits are so good. I only docked off points for some of them cause they weren’t as interesting. Also Ayaka’s outfit is perfect except for the color of her tights
Always glad to see my girl, Ashley!
Hoods are always a good taste, so…
I'm a sucker for suspenders!
Yuuna, Rena and Kokoro are the TOP of winter fashion!!!
There're quite a few outfits I WANT to like but they're just drawn so weird. Like. Why is Mitsune's sweatshirt Like That.
Also why is Mami dressed like she's in her 40s.
I really love all the varied silhouettes Magireco gives its characters in their casual clothes. Yuuna's is probably my least favourite because it's so boring. Ikumi's cat socks are extremely 2010s fashion and I love them.
Ashley has the best one here! It's practically something I would wear!
Rena's was so cute… until the short shorts. Girl!!! Your thighs are going to freeze!!! At least with skirts it's easy to wear skin colored thermal tights!
Ikumi: I'm going to wear e-girl cat socks with the most boring fit possible.
Round 2
Tumblr media
Ren's outfit is so adorable!
Bring On Da Next Round! I Need Madoka to Win!
Yuma stands out not being super detailed, but I like it.
Scene 0 Madoka's outfit isn't bad but I don't think the silhouette and blue jacket necessarily suit her. Also adult Hikaru's outfit looks like something I'd wear in IRL help
Yuna: I don't understand the transparent fabric on her, but aside from that, is a pretty fashionable outfit
Akari: The bunny purse? The bow with the scarf? The puffy shorts? *chef's kiss
Moka: teh top part is a 10, but the bottom is a 3
I would once again kill for Mami's, but Ria's on the block too
Felicia ily but THAT clothes???????
Round 3
Tumblr media
It's designs like these that get my hopes up about character design and fashion.
Alina wins out because of the paint on her clothes!
No Madoka Here but I’m Alright with That Besides Madoka Is Gonna Be the Winner Again!
I love Alina's painting clothes 💚💛❤️
So many cute designs in this round💖
ADORE alinas outfit, its so unique among the rest of the super feminine and cutesy casual outfits!
What is up with that bow on Tomoko’s outfit? It feels like everything was just slapped together when it comes to how she’s dressed.
Round 4
Tumblr media
sorry, kyouko. i cant stand orange+green color combos.
Finally a good outfit for Kyoko!
Why does it feel that they put more effort into making the winter ones and just slap some ramdom shirts and skirts for casual?
They really did Kyouko dirty in this game.
Looking Good I know Madoka is the Winner nothing ordinary or new!
Thought Homura had a mustache necklace for a sec
I was gonna give glasses Homura a -1, but she's getting a 2 for the mustache necklace actually. I don't like it but it's such a bold choice and I love that for her lmao
I dislike Kirika but her clothes are in my fav choices ;;
I find my choices a little funny in hindsight because Kokoro's outfit is a hiking outfit and it looks nice but it also feels very generic, but I also feel like Leila's outfit looks like she's about to go camping or something. Also I am OBSESSED with Homura's mustache necklace.
Round 5
Tumblr media
I'd like to make a disclaimer that I'm not rating Ranka's outfit 1 because I hate it, I just don't think it makes a good winter outfit necessarily. But does this also mean she's into larme kei and shops at places like MA*RS and Ank Rouge? Also: 1) Yachiyo's cold shoulder sweater dress amuses me for some reason. Girl your shoulders! 2) Green is a very interesting colour choice for Temari.
Hotaru, my beloved!! Sleepy queen!!
This is getting Good Final around Ahead and Madoka must Win!
I want Konomi's one so baaaad!!!!
Homura with glasses has the best outfits ;_; I have seen a lot of hers in the polls and always I love how she mixes cutesy with black clothes
Some of these are awful
Round 6
Tumblr media
Lots of threes this time for interesting silhouettes or designs that make me go "yeah, that's [character]"! Also Mifuyu's outfit is just one of my faves in general
These are not as awful as the other but somehow most of them has something that ruins the look for me.
The thing is, a magical girl costume is always so extravagant and beautiful, that when we go back to their casual clothes, we expect nothing less. Bu then it comes some disappointment, because they look so plain and simple.
Last One I Need Madoka To Win!!
hard to be picky abt it ;-; they're all so pretty tbh
ui looks adorable!! i love her little outfit! you can certainly tell she's a kid. i find her outfit works really well over all. a lot of others i felt like there'd be one or 2 elements just don't fit with the rest but ui's just matches perfectly in my eyes
This is so difficult because imo the game has really really good designs for the casual outfits
Round 7
Tumblr media
Kyoko looks really good in purple
After seeing Yachiyo's dress everything seems pretty.
Disclaimer I like Kyouko's outfit but I don't think it suits /her/ personally. I don't really like the mauve on Oriko? I feel like she should be wearing white or a very pale lilac at least. Tsubaki's is okay I guess and there's something about Tsukuyo's I don't entirely vibe with for some reason
I came to the conclusion that Homura is the Fashion Queen…
And poor Kyouko has so much to learn…
Let’s Hope Madoka wins this whole Thing!
Kyoko's outfit is great, but not a good fit for Kyoko.
Nagisa gets a 3. The OG deserves it. Too good for this world. Too pure. Deserves all the cheese.
Again, Homura has the best outfits

FAQ
What is Crack?
In short, it's a fanwork--traditionally fic, but we're inclusive--which is absurd, ridiculous, ludicrous, and other -ouses. Imagine the kind of thing you come up with at 3AM during a fit of the giggles. It's exuberant, it's shameless, it's unfettered creativity.
For a lengthier discussion of "crack" with a historical lens, see also: https://fanlore.org/wiki/Crack
Is the event Cas-centric?
No. The line "crack in his chassis" refers to Cas in canon, and we do anticipate plenty of entries to feature Thee Treasured Blorbo, but you can produce fanworks about any characters, items, episodes, monsters, etc. from canon you like.
Is this a bang, or a reverse bang?
It's both! It's neither! Participants will be divided into Pitchers (who create their fanwork first) and Catchers (who select a pitch during Claims and create a fanwork in response to it.) This event is not limited to the traditional fanart and fanfic.
What is the minimum required work?
Minimum word count for fic, meta, and other text-based fanworks: 1,500
Minimum length for audio or video based fanworks: 30 seconds
Minimum size for visual fanworks such as art, comics, sculpture, etc: one image suitable for web browsing, so about 750px width or height. This is very hand-wavy. Gifs can be smaller in dimension because they're technically multiple images stacked in a trenchcoat.
Is there a maximum word length or art size?
No! The minimums are calculated to be feasible for the average creator within the time allotted for the endowed, but if you are endowed with the hubris of gods, then go ahead and write that 150k epic or stage a three hour opera with full sets, score, and costumes. Just make sure it’s done by your posting date, mmkay?
What types of "other" fanworks are allowed?
Fanworks must fit two criteria:
1. Your fanwork must be able to be displayed via a public website. Fanfic and digital fanart are de riguer. Traditional 2D artwork can be photographed. Serial 2D art, such as sequential art aka comics, are displayed in much the same way. But we can do so much more than that.
3D or non-traditional art with a primary visual element--like cosplay, sculpture, cake decorating--can be displayed with photos from multiple angles and accompanied by an artist's statement advising of any elements that are lost (e.g., textures, flavors, scents, mild electrical shock.)
Performance art, music, a podcast or radio play, theatrical skits, etc. can be recorded by video or audio and supplemented with text and photos as needed. Video games which can be played in a browser window also work. (Shameless plug: Dean Dodge https://4mortea.itch.io/deandodge as an example.)
2. Your fanwork must be something that you are considered to be the sole owner of, and which is fair use. So, for example, if you're a filker and you claim a pitcher's fanfic, you can't just set the fic to music, as the ficcer is the owner of the text. But you can compose your own lyrics which comment upon or respond to the fic.
Note that co-creators are allowed--so an author who writes lyrics and a singer-composer who then sets the lyrics to music could present the resultant song as a single pitch or catch, with the "duo" being considered the sole owner.
Fanvids and gifsets that are just clips of canon footage without significant transformation (e.g., other than cutting and color correction) also don't qualify for this event. (We still love them, though.)
Types of transformation which would qualify vids and gifs of canon footage include, but are not limited to: juxtaposing different shots or scenes to create new meaning; adding commentary; altering the images (mod's personal favorite is adding cat ears to the characters). You can also include captions, subtitles, musical accompaniment, etc.
PLEASE NOTE: We know this is a huge tradition and genre, and this hurts us, it does, but using another artist's music on the video without written permission* is not permitted. Youtube will throw your ass under the bus and we will not be able to help you. Crack in the Chassis isn't tangling with Universal Music Group. Nuh uh. Don't go where we can't follow, Mr Frodo.
* if you manage to get permission somehow then holy snackballs please let us know.
For further information on fair use:
https://smallbusiness.chron.com/copyright-laws-30-seconds-music-61149.html
https://www.transformativeworks.org/faq/ (specifically the section "What exactly is Fair Use?"
How will Claims work, since you're being so complicated about it?
All of the pitches will be presented in a single gallery for all the potential catchers to review and select their preferences. (Pitches may be split into two categories depending on how many under-18 participants and NSFW pitches we get.)
In addition to stating what elements they would and would not like (e.g., yes to gothic horror, no to adultery and A/B/O), pitchers will also specify the kinds of catches they would and would not like. E.g., If you are a fanficer and the idea of a catch piece that is also fanfic unnerves you, you can restrict fic catches. If you are THRILLED with the idea of a companion fic, you can request *only *fic catches. If you grow weary of traditional fic and fanart, you can specify that the catch piece must be an "other" type of fanwork. Any and all choices. There will be ticky boxes.
Can I sign up as a Pitcher and a Catcher?
YES! For the sake of anonymity for Claims, however, you will be restricted from the Pitcher's channel in the Discord server until Claims are over.
How many Pitches and Catches can I submit?
Each person or team can only submit a maximum of three pitches. Each pitch must be fully completed before submitting additional pitches. E.g., You can submit one pitch that is 50% completed for claims. If you want to submit two pitches, your first pitch must be fully complete and the second one 50% complete. For three pitches, the first two must be fully complete and the third 50% complete.
For Claims, each catcher will recieve their most preferred pitch which is still available, on a first come, first serve basis. If there are pitches remaining after the first round, we will do additional rounds of claims as needed. Catchers can pick up only one pitch per round.
Can I discuss my fanwork before it’s submitted and posted?
No. You are not permitted to publically discuss your fanwork in detail or post any portion of it outside the designated channels in the Discord server prior to your assigned posting day.
Pitchers, we ask that you take precautions to prevent the catchers from being able to recognize your pitch piece at claims. This may mean not publicly discussing your piece at all, or keeping discussion to a private chat with your alpha/beta, or just being obnoxiously vague in shared spaces. We know there will be slip-ups. Catchers, please pretend you Do Not See It and uphold the spirit of the event: to be paired with someone based on their pitch, not their identity, and to make some new friends! This may mean deliberately not choosing a pitch because you know who the creator is.
Can I create a work that’s part of a series?
Yes, as long as the work meets the criteria of the event and the work (but not necessarily the series) is posted in its entirety on the assigned posting date. Pieces that can stand on their own are strongly preferred. Be aware that your catcher may not have the time or inclination to brush up on the parts of the series other than the event piece. Catchers, if you’re creating something that happens to fit into a series you’ve been working on, please make sure your pitcher is okay with that.
Can I use a work I’ve already started?
We do ask that you create a new work specific to this event. However, if you’ve already started on a work but haven’t posted it or discussed it publicly anywhere, the mods aren’t really going to know, are we?
Is this restricted to SPN?
Your work should engage primarily with SPN or The Winchesters, but crossovers are allowed. If you want to focus exclusively on quasi-canon materials, like Supernatural tie-in books, graphic novels, or the Ghostfacers webisodes, that's welcome, too.
What about RPF?
There's two prongs to this.
1. Canon includes fictionalized versions of several crew and cast in the s6 episode The French Mistake, and the character Chuck establishes the conceit of a writer as god of the 'verse who engages with the characters he's manipulating. So anything in that vein is allowed, and godspeed.
2. SPN RPF is a different fandom than SPN, so any SPN RPF fanworks would have to be crossovers--meaning the fanworks must *also *be SPN related. E.G., a Cockles coffeeshop AU wouldn't be eligible, but a Cockles AU where they're interacting with the Ghostfacers would. RPF other than SPN RPF is also allowed under the same mechanism--as a crossover.
Are there restrictions on content?
Other than it must be cracky and SPN related, nah.
There must be something you don't allow.
The limits will be 1. the laws of the area in which you reside (e.g. don't do crime. or at least don't get caught about it.) and 2. the ToS of any services you use to host your fanwork: e.g., Tumblr won't host sexually explicit images, YouTube will scan for copyrighted material, and AO3 does not allow commercial promotion.
No, I mean, do you allow content that is... problematic.
Yes.
Surely you jest.
No.
But what about the panopticon? What about being seen at the witch's sacrament?
Look, fandom isn't a workplace or a church picnic. It's a subculture for freaks.
When posting fanwork, your responsibility is to provide metadata--e.g., tag and warn for potentially upsetting content--so people can curate their own experiences.
When engaging with your pitcher or catcher, your responsibility is to honor the restrictions stated during claims, and use care when bringing up subjects which they may not have explicitly listed but that are commonly considered to be upsetting. In this house we respect hard and soft limits. Informed consent is king (gn.)
Other than that, go wild! It's a crack event. Self-censorship is gonna make the fanworks sad and boring and we don't want that.

I saw compatibility ratings and I got curious lmao so here I go---
Um. Well, I'm very protective of the people I care for, willing to go to any lengths to keep them safe regardless of the consequences on me/my body. But outside of immediate danger moments, I'm pretty chill I think? I don't really bother anyone lol, I'm kinda like an aloof cat who only comes up for attention when something's wrong with it and it needs comfort. Likewise, my love language is generally through pebbling, leaving lil' gifts (usually memes) on peoples proverbial doorsteps. I'm kinda withdrawn I guess, I... Don't really talk about myself, so writing this ask feels weird as hell lmao. I've got a lot of walls up I guess. I'm also very hypervigilant, always on the lookout for when danger/conflict will arise next and staying on guard for it. I never enter a room and let the door stay behind me where I can't see it, I sit/stand with my back to a solid wall instead. But, despite my quiet and closed off nature, I always extend a hand to people who are hurting, and I use my past experiences with pain to relate to and comfort them as much as possible. I've been hurt, but I've forged it into a sword and shield for others, and I'll keep wielding them for as long as it's needed, no matter how tired I may be. - 💜 anon (hopefully that's not taken yet, please let me know if it is tho)
Hello! No, that anon is not taken yet! ^^
As for the diagnosis! I calculated the exact results, and finally got a legitimate answer..
And with 78%.... I match you up with......TED! :D
"I...admire your... protectiveness.. I find you very endearing... I... I must admit that I'm... nervous.... W-Would you like to take...a walk in the woods..?"
Seems like you just scored a date ;)

3-Draw
[AO3]
With novel 2-player games running thin on the ground, Itsuki and Miss Suzumiya's boy-who-was-also-Itsuki's-friend-but-not-if-you-asked-Itsuki's-superiors-or-likely-the-individual-in-question-himself had, on Itsuki's suggestion, spent the afternoon spectating each others' individual games of solitaire. They compared scores lackadaisically.
It had been Itsuki's suggestion because if he waited on Kyon to choose, 9 times out of 10 the boy would defer the implied responsibility and spend the meeting time ignoring Itsuki (talking to the girls, working on homework, or staring into space), and it was lackadaisical because Kyon's scores had almost instantly outstripped Itsuki's by an order of magnitude and Kyon wasn't one of nature's gloaters.
Where their common cause (Miss Suzumiya), if she were participating instead of over on the computer committing something that was hopefully harmless, would have relished the taste of even the easiest victim, not unlike a cat batting around the corpse of a small animal, Kyon had only glanced at their score table, failed not to make an expression, and then turned away from it back to the piles of cards and gradually but methodically became less diligent about marking his results down as the paper serving as their scorecard casually migrated in small nudges further from the area of play along the table. (Itsuki studiedly marked his tallies down for him anyway, earning askance glances.)
While Kyon's was the more societally desirable response to embarrassingly crushing victory, ordinarily Itsuki found both of his fellow club members' proclivities charming in their own fashion. Today, however...
He leaned down to get a better look at Kyon's hands. His comrade twitched slightly but didn't otherwise try to reclaim his personal space.
"Oh, you've switched to 3-draw?" observed Itsuki, watching Kyon's hands flick through the cards in the draw pile too fast for Itsuki to properly calculate moves. Instead of drawing cards from the pile Kyon was passing them between his hands and flipping them over in a rapid cyclical cascade. "It makes the game more challenging when playing with infinite rounds by decreasing the cards you have access to, correct? ...I can't help but wonder why anyone would wish for that." Itsuki had so far played six rounds of one-draw and not won once. That this was partially dictated by chance did not make it less frustrating.
Kyon didn't seem engaged by the question, lidded eyes fixed boredly on his cards. He supplied without energy: "If you get tired of winning every round, I guess."
Itsuki very briefly contemplated the fantasy of breaking Kyon's nose.
"I see...." he said.
Under Itsuki's eyes Kyon won the round. Again.
He started piling the cards into their stacks at the top of the arbitrarily designated field, but once the outcome was clear he stopped halfway through the completion of play, straightening up and stretching.
Itsuki leaned further forward, feeling his face twitching. "May I finish that for you?"
"Living vicariously, huh?" Kyon arched, but he also waved a hand at the mostly finished game indicating Itsuki could knock himself out.
Itsuki smiled into the ribbing and started to finish the game anyway. "If the Brigade ever needs emergency funds," he said, "we can send you to a casino."
Kyon informed him he sounded like Miss Suzumiya, though he of course invoked her given name for the accusation—something in which Itsuki didn't dare emulate him. Though he didn't think their chief would necessarily mind, or even notice, and if she did notice she may even appreciate it. But he daren't.
Only after all the cards were in suit order did he stack them back into a deck—ordered spade diamond club heart—and then begin shuffling it.
When he placed it back on their table Kyon said, "Okay, look." He shoved the deck over to Itsuki's side. "Set yours up."
When Itsuki returned to his seat Kyon drifted over to stand at his flank and watched silently, scowling vaguely, as Itsuki set up and then, when Kyon did nothing, started play.
A few moves in Kyon swatted his hand as he reached for the three of hearts.
"If you can move two of the same type of card, pick the one on the deeper stack so you free up the ones that are hard to get to."
"Ah, I see!" said Itsuki. "Thank you."
And so:
"Check more closely to make sure you're not missing moves."
"Don't combine those until you need the space it would free up to leave yourself more options."
"You can put this six up top if you move the five to the other six, then you'll have more moves left."
"Never cover a card there's no reason to. Don't just make the tallest stacks you can because they look pretty."
"Itsuki" won.
At Kyon's gesture he tried applying the imparted strategies to the next round while Kyon watched, silent but engaged, perpetual faint frown twitching occasionally.
He lost.
Kyon was looking over his piles of cards with a dismayed face.
"...Was that one mathematically unwinnable, do you think?" Itsuki checked, suspecting he was failing to suppress coming off somewhat morose.
"No," said Kyon with defeated conviction.
"Hmmmmm." Itsuki frowned and tapped a lonely ace against his lip. "Perhaps if you keep tutoring me—"
"Let's switch to gin," interrupted Kyon.
Itsuki had beaten him at that exactly once last time they played it, if he recalled correctly. "I'd love to."

Bandai Releases Tamagotchi Uni 1.4.0 Big Autumn Update
Tumblr media
The November update is here, and it’s a big one! Bandai has just announced that Tamagotchi Uni 1.4.0, aka the big autumn update is here. Some features were teased in recent social media posts, and now they’re available to all Tamagotchi Uni owners. The power of software!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So what’s new in 1.4.0? First, an option for “Information” has been added to the Tama Arena event menu, which will allow you to check what day you are on for the current event, and your current high score. This is a huge feature and is super helpful because with the timezone of the events being in JST, it’s easier to miss a day than you think. Also knowing your highest score is helpful.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next are the features that Bandai teased on social media. You can now send hearts in the Tamaverse, add a Tama Name, and greeting for your character as well, which can all seen in the Tamaverse. You can set your nickname, greeting, and birthday from your profile.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bandai has also added  mini game option to connection menu to play with other Tamagotchi Uni owners. It looks like you'll now be able to play the Fast Food mini game with others, and the first tor feed 10 burgers, wins.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bandai has also mentioned that they have updated the conditions for participation rewards for the Tama Arena events. This helps you get better, and more rewards! For example, you can earn multiple prizes by playing a certain number of days, and the grand prize is given to those who participate either 6 or 7 days of the event. This is a big win!
It’s clear here that Bandai is listening to your feedback actively. There are a lot of features in this update that you’ve been asking for, and it’s making the Tamagotchi Uni experience so much better. Bandai has also made some adjustments to displays and effects, for a smoother gameplay experience. This also includes minor bug fixes.
Tumblr media
Lastly is the new Tama Arena limited-time event, Nyanoe Dance! This event is hosted by Ano-Chan, a member of the Tama Family. The event was mentioned by Bandai last month, and now we have all the details, and it’s going to be so much fun! The event starts on Friday, November 24th 2023 at 14:00 JST and runs until Friday, December 1st, 2023, 13:59 JST.
Tumblr media
Okay, so how do we play? Nyanoe has joined a fun-looking dance party at the Tama Arena! Remember,  Nyanoe is a character designed by Ano! Formerly a cute white cat, but turned gray from dirty. Nyanoe likes the taste of medicine, and eats anything Ano can’t eat.
Tumblr media
Nyanoe is spewing up rainbows and music notes, kicking off a dance battle! Tamagotchi characters from around the world will choose between team cat (blue) and team mouse (yellow)! Groove along to the music by pushing the notes that come out of Nyanoe’s mouth. Be sure to participate every day and get a high score to help contribute to your team. Bandai discloses that the level of difficulty between practice and play is different, play is more difficult so make sure to practice beforehand (we wish we knew this earlier for the other events).
Tumblr media
The “A” button allows you to grab the notes in the pink lane, “B” button the blue lane, and “C” button the yellow lane. This reminds us of Guitar Hero! Push the buttons at the right time as the notes flow down from Nyanoe’s mouth to the bottom of your Tamagotchi Uni’s screen. For longer notes, hold down the respective button. Let go of the button as the note reaches the end. There are two different types of notes, a normal note, and a long note, which features a face on it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Time your buttons correctly and your Tamagotchi all groove to the rhythm. Nyanoe will tell you the color of the winning team by the color coming from Nyanoe’s mouth. Results will then be announced after each game and you’ll see how you place!
Tumblr media
Results will be calculated from Friday, December 1st, 2023 14:00 JST through Monday, December 4th, 2023 13:59 JST. Rewards will be distributed from Monday, December 4th, 2023 14:00 JST through Monday, December 11th, 13:59 JST.
Tumblr media
Per this latest update, the reward system has changed. Depending on how many days you participate, you will receive different, and potentially multiple awards.
Tumblr media
The rewards are Music Aura (accessory) (reward A), Nyan Headband (accessory) (reward B), Sick Bag (accessory) (reward C). You can earn rewards A, B, and C is you play for 6 to 7 days, Rewards B & C if you play for 2 to 5 days, and lastly reward C if you play for 1 day. We really like that you can earn all three rewards, and fans have been asking for this!
Tumblr media
Of course the winning team, either team cat (blue) or team mouse (yellow) will win the grand prize of 5,000 Gotchi Points!
Be sure to update your Tamagotchi Uni to version 1.4.0 to start the fun! Here’s how you can update: Main Menu -> Network Icon -> Update -> Check -> Check For Updates -> Yes. Enjoy the latest version of Tamagotchi Uni, it just keeps getting better.

Warrior Playbooks
Warriors are fighters and defenders of the clan. Nearly every clan cat is expected to become a warrior, as it is seen as a title of honor. This role does all the labor, and battle, looking to their leader and deputy as the highest authority. Warriors are more connected to the code than their religion, more so out of a fear and respect for Star Clan. The typical cat does not fully understand Star Clan and its ways, despite this, warriors are often involved in prophecies.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hearts of Fire
Your cat is known for their offensive and ferocious fighting style, they are unafraid to run into combat and shed first blood. These cats tend to be heftier, their blows being slow but meaningful. Only those who are brave, loyal, and courageous have Hearts of Fire. These cats are fighting and hunting focused, the ideal cat to have on patrols, hunts, and in battle.
Add +2 Strength to Ability Score. 
Add +2 in Wrestle, +2 in Arch.
Knacks: 
Second Wind
(1 Strength Chips) 
Your cat must be at Bleeding Damage to use this Knack. 
The Second Wind knack grants your cat a quick burst of strength to defeat their enemies. At Bleeding they are granted 3 extra strength chips. This effect wears off if your cat’s health hits Fading, or once the fight is over. 
Duel
(1 Strength Chips) 
Your cat screeches at an enemy, their passionate challenge completely drawing them in. The Duel Knack allows Hearts of Fire to attract any enemy, taking on the burden of a cornered ally, or saving an innocent. Duel allows your cat advantage on the attack roll against this enemy, and can be used on any player’s turn. 
Pummel
(2 Strength Chips.)
Your cat bats at the enemy with their strong paws. Pummel knocks cats off focus, and confuses their senses. Pummel acts as a multi-attack, allowing your cat to punch an opponent twice. This Knack allows you to use any attack Skill or Knack twice. 
Toss 
(3 Strength Chips.)
The Toss Knack allows your cat to throw an enemy away from them, toss a friend away from danger, or heave heavy objects. If a creature is Tossed unwillingly, they will be knocked prone their next turn. 
Asphyxiate
(3 Strength Chips.)
Your cat must be using the Wrestling Skill to use this Knack.

The creature must roll Strength + Wrestle against your cat to be free, or they will stay locked in the choke hold for as long as you see fit. Each round the cat is held down they take a point of harm. An enemy is unconscious once they are at Severe Harm.
______________________________________________________________
Claws of Wind
Your cat is swift and calculated, this fighting style can be used defensively or offensively. Your cat may make short bursts of attacks, or dodge gracefully away from enemy claws. These cats are considered the most intelligent, specializing in knowing an enemy’s next move before they strike. Claws of Wind make for good teachers, due to their wisdom and flexibility.
Add +2 Intelligence to Ability Score. 
Add  +2 in Swat Skill, and +2 in Chase.
Knacks:
Sharp Eyed
(1 Intelligence Chips.)

Fake out
(2 Intelligence Chips.)
Your cat can use misdirection, tricking their combatants into missing an oncoming attack. A beast must make a DC 4 Intelligence + See check to evade Fake Out’s effects. to give their opponent disadvantage on any skill based attack. 
Sweeping Blow
(3 Strength Chips.)
Sweeping Blow may only be used once. 
Your cat knocks an enemy off their paws, throwing them off from their next attack. A beast must make a DC 5 Spirit + Jump check to evade Sweeping Blow’s effects. Sweeping Blow prevents an enemy from attacking on their turn, effectively skipping them in the initiative order. 
______________________________________________________________
Minds of Shadow
Your cat prefers to wait in the shadows, only striking when it's essential. These cats are best with a defensive fight style, using their intuition to sense impending attacks. Those with Minds of Shadow may have a cold heart, but their hardened sensibilities allow them to escape unscathed. These cats make for good patrollers, spies, and battle planners. 
Add +2 Spirit to Ability Score. 
Add +2 in Sneak Skill, +2 in Speech.
Knacks: 
Manipulation
(1 Spirit Chip.)
Your cat has a silver tongue that allows it to scrape by and lie to other cats. Using the  Manipulation Knack allows your cat to produce a convincing lie. This is a Knack that can be used on other players, but will only work if your cat wins the contested roll: Spirit+Speech vs Spirit+Focus. Whomever has the most successes, wins. 
Silence
(+2 Spirit Chips.)
Your cat must either be sneaking, or using a stealth based knack.
Your cat slaps a paw over an unsuspecting enemy, muffling their surprised meows until they fall limp. The Silence Knack is an effective way to knock out an enemy quietly, and nonlethally. The creature being silenced must make a DC 5 Strength Check or be knocked unconscious.
Battle Strategy
(3 Intelligence Chips.)
Your cat taps into their knowledge of other clans, and creatures, to discuss which plan of action is best. Roll a 1d6, depending on how high the dice roll is, the Narrator can reveal the stat blocks and moves of the expected enemy. Rolling a 6 guarantees you the enemy’s entire stat sheet. 
Shadow Stalker
(+3 Spirit Chips.)
A cat slinks into the shadows, becoming remotely invisible. Despite a cat's ability to see in the dark, the Shadow Stalker Knack allows your cat to be completely undetectable in the dark.
