Ever thought like...this character have Mist Flames

Its always the eeary ones

[awesomecitys-blog]

Today I headcanon the Straw Hats with what their flame type from Hitman Reborn would be. Since not everyone knows what the flame types of Hitman Reborn are, I’ll make a separate post later talking about them. Let’s get started:

• Luffy-Sky and Sun: Man draws everyone towards him, encompassing all like the sky, while also having a ton of sun motifs and lighting up peoples lives.

• Zoro-Storm and Lightning: Everyone’s favorite swordsman, Zoro destroys his enemies with relentless attacks, while also drawing them away from the rest of the crew.

• Nami-Cloud: Clouds float alone, only joining up to bring the rain, and no one does that better than Nami.

• Usopp-Mist: Striking from the shadows and from afar, hiding their allies from sight, Usopp is the perfect sniper.

• Sanji-Mist and Lightning: Sanji is great at sneaking around and also excellent at protecting his allies from harm.

• Chopper-Sun and Rain: A light that brings life to all and a flow that washes away the dust, perfect for a doctor intent on creating medicine for all diseases.

• Robin-Mist: An assassin that is also book smart, Robin is not afraid to shield those she loves.

• Franky-Storm: This cyborg brings the pain with a radical beam that is relentless in its destruction.

• Brook-Sun and Rain: At an angle of 45 degrees, our musically inclined skeleton brightens the day with a jaunty tune and washes away foes with an icy chill.

• Jinbei-Sun and Rain: He makes his allies happy, and is known for causing a flood to sweep away those who would threaten his friends.

That’s all of them. If you like Hitman Reborn, I would love to hear your thoughts about these headcanons and which ones you would recommend. For my One Piece fans, if there’s a character that you would love to see headcanon for, my asks are open, and I would be thrilled to work on that for you. Thank you!

Soul Fire (TCFxKHR! AU) (Part 1)

I really like the concept of the dying will flames in Katekyou Hitman Reborn! In fact, I love it! ٩(♡ε♡)۶

This concept is quite interesting from my perspective, the being able to manifest the power of your soul through your will to live is very cool for me °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

I am not going to give an explanation of what the flames are since the publication is not about that, instead, I am going to give the link that will explain what they are.

(All credits to villainsandvictimsalliance ⸜(*ˊᗜˋ*)⸝)

And given the basic explanation, I'm going to give my ideas on how they work in this AU:

The Dying Will Flames come from the excess energy that the soul constantly emits. If you have accumulated a large amount of energy in your soul and find yourself in a near-death situation where your highest priority is to survive, your will can break the barrier between the physical and spiritual worlds, allowing you to access your flames and making you active. When this happens, small holes open in your soul that with time, use and trauma can become larger, causing chronic spiritual pain, that is where bonds and harmony come in. Links to other flames (and therefore souls) can help as pain relievers for all parties involved by superficially plugging the gaps and not allowing the core of the soul to be exposed. The exception to this is the flames of the sky which, due to their harmony attribute, can fill the gaps in other souls but not in their own, while the elements fill the gaps in their Sky, which makes this type of bond highly sought after. It is not just about healing the soul, it is a promise of eternal loyalty and devotion between each party, letting your own soul find a home in your Sky to fill the gaps in it and knowing that you will always have someone in who to trust for the rest of your life. Both harmony and general bonds are promises of eternal trust and loyalty, no active person will ever try to harm anyone they are bonded with much less an element to their Sky. A Sky needs a bond with each of the elements to stay sane and healthy physically, mentally and spiritually. The more powerful he is, the more links he needs. These can be created immediately if the souls are very compatible or by courtship if they don't are.

Well, with that explained, here is my TCF AU using this concept (o^ ^o)b.

Cale is definitely a Misty Sky, someone who can accept anyone without discrimination, but seeking the maximum benefit for himself and his people at all times.

He is someone who will deceive and swindle to achieve his goals by seeking out anything that he thinks may be useful or annoying to his enemies, but at the same time he is totally incapable of deceiving those he considers his by telling only lies for omission and half-truths.

He will justify any display of affection as manipulation or pretend to ignore it, but the way his worst fear is that his people will die and ending up alone speaks volumes about his character.

He is possessive of everything that is his, including his people, and will always pay for every offense or good act. For example, he prolonged Hannah's suffering by giving her healing potions and delaying Mary's arrival for everything she did to the whales, but once she paid for his offenses he did everything he could to help her.

But the curse make him difficult to have bonds.

After all, being a Sky he would need to have precious people to keep his soul complete and not fall into madness, and we all already know that he does the curse.

During the cataclysm each and every one of the humans with enough will to do everything possible to live awakens their flames to later (once society is rebuilt) be studied, revealing what explained at the beginning.

Moving on to another topic, I firmly believe that Cale's family in the Shelter (LSH (Cloud), LSW (Lightning), LJJ (Sun), JMS (Mist), Grandma Kim (Rain) and maybe PJT (Storm)) They were his first set of items allowing him to heal and maintain his sanity, but his curse took them away from him.

He later formed a bond with CJS (Sunny Rain) until the unclassified monster disaster occurred.

Team 1 that he led began to court him, but the trauma prevented him from forming complete bonds by creating too many holes for them alone to fill, leaving them all suffering, Cale by not being able to form new bonds and the team by refusing to accept another Sky wearing down the souls of all of them.

On the other hand, the original Cale is also a Misty Sky, the Thames are a long line of powerful Sky's who unlocked this power on Earth 1 but which is inaccessible without intervention for the inhabitants of almost all worlds except for the variants of the land.

Cale was born with active flames due to the difficulties of childbirth, harmonizing with his mother (a Sunny Sky) in the process.

During his childhood he harmonized with Eric (Rain), Amiru (Storm) and Gilbert (Lightning) after accidentally waking them up with his flames, but after the death of his mother he tried to distance himself from them without success causing them all to be very clingy to each other. yes and promise never to abandon each other.

After the arrival of Basen and Violan he began to act like trash in hopes that the collateral families would stop insulting his father's new family, thereby destroying his reputation in the process.

He was in a courtship process with Ron (Mist) and Beacrox (Cloud) before starting to act, but he interrupted it by starting to treat them as simple servants.

Then the Harris Village accident happens and Choi Han's beating completely undoes any trace of harmony with the Molans.

The Plaza Terror accident kills Basen and seriously injures the nobles of the northwest who begin to stay with Cale in a villa within a small town.

The War occurs by killing the rest of the Henituse family and taking most of the people in the northeastern territory with it.

Cale, Eric, Amiru and Gilbert, letting themselves be carried away by the desire for revenge, enlist in the army, quickly rising through the ranks until the battle in Puzzle City arrives.

During that battle each of them dies and Cale is taken to the God of Death who offers him a deal.

Since both his and Kim-Cale's souls are incredibly damaged he offers to send him back in time to the moment before he met Choi Han and fuse his souls.

Og-Cale insists that Kim-Cale must be there if the deal involves him and the God of Death brings him in while he was taking a nap on his day off, accidentally dragging Team 1 along due to the courtship.

They protest without wanting to send their leader (Sky) to a world destined for destruction until GoD blurts out that the reincarnation of the shelter family lives in that world which makes them stop trying knowing that Kim-Cale would do anything for see his elements again, so they start negotiating to go with him (Min Ah including his family being the only one with close relatives ( ╥ω╥ ))

Cale protests that they should not waste their lives for a trip that would bring them no benefit, but they tell him that they do not do it for benefits, but do it solely out of their loyalty.

This last exchange causes Cale to finally understand that they would stay by his side and finally accepts them into his Sky, establishing harmony.

Og-Cale on the other hand watches the exchange, and feeling a little jealous (very, very jealous (￢_￢)) tells GoD if Kim-Cale can take his people with him because he couldn't do the same demanding that Eric, Amiru and Gilbert travel with him.

GoD, wanting Nameless 1 to be saved, accepts the demand and quickly brings them, taking advantage of the fact that they recently died, to explain everything to them.

Only when they are about to seal the deal does Kim-Cale realize that GoD never mentioned what had happened to CJS and after much insistence he finally blurts out that he had become his subordinate and that he was currently on a mission in another country. world.

On the condition that CJS visits him as soon as possible he accepts the deal.

The deal is finally complete, Kim-Cale and Og-Cale will be a single person once the respective regression and transmigration begins, the nobles of the northeast will return to their bodies from before the Plaza Terror accident and the Koreans will be left in a merchant caravan with forged identification documents just one day from Rain City.

Writing up that Sea Flames post reminded me of the time I made up a set of Dying Will Flames in high school, before the Earth Flames or Night Flame were introduced

I called them "the Nightside Flames" because they were aspects of the sky that show up at night

Let's see if I can remember them all...

Star Flame: Duplication; meant to oppose the Storm Flame's Destruction attribute, the Star Flame could replicate whatever it coated, with the intention of being "countless as stars in the sky"; its symbol was a slanted red star with a few smaller stars around it

Moon Flame: Reflection; as the moon reflects the light of the sun, the Moon Flame reflects anything that encounters it, physical or otherwise; its symbol was a yellow crescent moon

Nova Flame: Explosion?; like a dying star, anything coated in the Nova Flame would violently explode (I think); its symbol was a green four-pointed star within a jagged circle meant to convey an explosion

Meteor Flame: Chaos; meant to oppose the Rain Flame's Tranquility, the Meteor Flame introduced entropy, inciting random and unpredictable movement in whatever it coated; its symbol was a blue meteor complete with vapor trail

Aurora Flame: Distortion?; whatever the explanation was, I'm decently confident that it was effectively just generic illusions. I didn't understand how Mist Flames turned illusions into "Real Illusions" at the time, so I get the feeling I didn't find a good way to avoid creating overlap at the time; its symbol was three indigo waves, vaguely similar to the symbol of the Mist Village from Naruto

Nebula Flame: I have no idea what this one was. Like absolutely no clue what it did. I just remember its symbol was three overlapping purple circles, which I believe I based off of the Hourglass Nebula?

I don't even remember what the main Nightside Flame was; I don't think it was the Night Flame, though it probably was. It didn't have a specific symbol, as the Sky Flame never got its own symbol either. Instead, I used the symbol of the family I made up, the Bellemont Family, which...I'm 100% certain is French, not Italian...so way to go, high school me, for doing zero research...

Whatever notes I had for that are at my old house. If I remember to look for them next time I go back, I might try to retrieve them and upload them here, if for no other reason than to reminisce

[rakubalka]

At the moment I'm having a Toriko and KHR brainrot

And I'm thinking what would Komatsu (who is obviously a sky (and maybe maybe a little cloudy)) would have as guardians

Here is who I think is his guardians (in order of meeting them) :

Toriko - Mist / Probably the first Guardian or just the main / As for why he is a Mist I just think it fits

Coco - Rain / Second Guardian / Being a Rain just fits him

Sunny - Storm / Third Guardian if Rin doesn't take the spot of second Mist first / The hardest to put into a category , idk what his secondary is

Zebra - Could / Fourth Guardian / Typical Cloud behavior until he met a sky whit both a lot of strength to hold him and amazing computability ( who is also an amazing cook)

Brunch - Lightning / Fifth Guardian / Already rocking the electricity and also has both the personality and the smarts

Starjun - Sun / Sixth Guardian / An overzealous Sun who despite having met the world strongest sky (who he is very much compatible with) didn't start to court properly until after he kidnapped Komatsu

Honorable mentions :

Midora - Cloud / Tried to get the position of Second or Third Cloud Guardian / might be one of Komatsu's element's

Rin - Mist / Is the Second Mist Guardian

Melk 2 - Rain / Tried to get the position of Second Rain / One of Komatsu's element's

Setsuno - Mist / Has a connection with Jiro with flames / is also one of Komatsu's element's

Jiro - Lightning and maybe Cloud secondary / Has a flame connection with Setsuno / Probably isn't one of Komatsu's element's but might be

Ichiryu - Could with Sun and/or Sky as secondary / Doesn't have a connection with Komatsu

Ippei - Could / Second Cloud Guardian / got picked up by Komatsu

Idk about the rest

DCMK x KHR Crossover

Recently I had the idea for this crossover and had sadly discovered that there are practically no works for it. Which, I get it. The two universes are very dissimilar at first glance. DetCon is just so... lawful. But then I started thinking how this might work anyway and found that the two universes could work together. With DetCon as a sort of flip side or the POV Outsider for the KHR mafia shenanigans.

Point 1. Magic! Koizumi is a witch, and Kaito's looking for Pandora. The supernatural obviously exists in the DCMK world even if we never see it from Conan's POV. All we do get is a magic drug with an effect similar to the Cursed Pacifiers. But it is still something.

Point 2. The way most murderers in Conan frame their crimes as a suicide or accident. Also, how all of them make sure to leave pretty much no evidence behind. All of this is to make Shinichi-Conan look smarter, being able to figure out the murder from so few clues, but! The murderers still decided to go about it in that way and no other. They all seem to follow a certain template. One or two people being elaborate I could buy, but not all of them! This too has a simple explanation in the form of Gosho writing it like that, but in-universe, if we look at the characters as actual people it makes no sense.

Here's what I propose for this crossover. The world of organized crime is built on secrets. Unlike in our world, it is not just about not being caught by the authorities, they hide their Flames. Revealing which will break the Omerta, and no one sane wants Bermuda's attention. The Flames allow for more untraceable crimes, Storm Flames to Disintegrate all the evidence left behind, Sun Flames to make the target suddenly contract cancer, and Mist Flames to make them walk off a cliff or take a knife to their wrists by themselves. No authorities the wiser and no evidence to speak of.

Many criminal organizations to the outside observer are upstanding corporations, with their leaders in high places in society. And when you watch the TV talking about how this upstanding person died in a car crash or how that upstanding person committed suicide so often. Practically every other month. And you see completely random people reported dead by the news in a similar fashion even more often, every other day or so, you come to the conclusion that that's a common and even 'normal' or 'expected' way to die. "I just need to make it look like an accident. No other evidence and no one will question it," they think. After all, accidents are so common.

Point 3. The way police handle the crime scene. Why do they not move the dead body? Why are teenagers, little kids, and weird scientist grandpas allowed to stand over a corpse and theorize about their killer? Again could be lazy writing on Gosho's part or just a way to showcase Shinichi-Conan's genius. But what if it isn't? No one is capable of solving a murder case in a couple hours! And the people in the police are not stupid. They're actually very intelligent from what we see in the anime. Give these people a reasonable time frame and they will have the correct guy in handcuffs with bulletproof evidence of guilt.

But now consider the above. What if when they get involved in such a crime often when they are halfway through, they get /incentives/ to stop the investigation? Or suddenly, the person in charge loses interest in the case on their own or just forgets about it completely, seemingly out of the blue? And when you try to bring it to their attention, there's no record of the crime. It is not superstition if it happens as often as it does, is it? Pre-Conan Shinichi may have thought himself an unremovable deeply needed person for the First Division but it's not like that. They could very well manage without him and most of them would want him nowhere near a crime scene. Not out of jealousy, but because teenagers shouldn't see dead bodies. The world at large has no knowledge of Flames as per KHR canon, but that doesn't mean people don't witness their effects.

Imagine living in this world and working for the police. You go to work with this sense of foreboding every single day, that this might be the time one of your coworkers will come in a bit weird with a vacant look in their eyes whenever you breach certain topics, like where they'd been this weekend (they witnessed a Cloud and a Mist get into a fight in a bar, but they are convinced they spent the whole day home. The Mist user made sure of that) or forget an entire case with 10 people dead (the culprit was a Storm user and when they found the police getting closer to the truth than they liked the Storm DISINTEGRATED those memories for the officer) and when you will try to remind them no evidence of it exists.

And you just know there had to be outside influence for this to happen. This doesn't happen naturally. So, you keep your head down because you are well aware, that if you go looking or start following up on this case you will be the next one with the vacant look in your eyes or undetectable amnesia about a gruesome massacre. You learn to look the other way in self-preservation even if your morals are screaming at you that you let a murderer walk free tonight and maybe there will be more dead by his hand come morning.

And then there's this high schooler. He wants to be a detective and he's bulldozing right into this world you work in and you'd much rather he stay home or go play football. You don't want to see him like the way many of your coworkers are after a run-in with organized crime. And you know that is what it must have been to be so systematic. And then it turns out he is a genius. He can solve the crime in a couple hours instead of the weeks it would take you.

So you skirt protocol. It's better to do that than allow another murderer to walk free, you reason to yourself. Besides you are not actually doing anything serious, just a couple of allowances here or there. And it pays off. Your job is getting done and criminals get the consequences they deserve. All is good. But every night you pray and hope, that this bright teenager wouldn't feel like he could do anything and then turn up with that so many times cursed vacant look when you ask him about his weekend. (And then he disappears....)

Like, imagine that. And it is not only a Japan issue, no. The US allowed Sera to crime scenes too and so did Britain for Saguru, so it is obviously an international issue. I could bet some of the Flame-induced amnesia or subtle personality changes are the reason that no one reacts all that much to the various sleeping deduction kings and queens. I bet they find it eerie not because of the tranquilizer, or the lips not moving, or for the many other reasons it is deeply unsettling, but because they saw all of it on various colleagues just in a more subtle manner. I bet they are grateful for once to be on the benevolent side of that particular phenomenon. It might also be why no one would be surprised if suddenly, one day, Mouri lost his edge. They see everything, they acknowledge it, and they're waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Point 4. The Black Organization in canon is made out to operate in a similar fashion to how the mafia is portrayed in KHR. You can expect anyone to be from there, from a famous actress to the barista down the road. But, from the vibe I'm getting from the Black Org, they seem a rather new group in comparison to the Vongola or the Cavalone or the other 'old blood'. A newer organization would be easier to infiltrate and just look at how many spies are among the Men in Black? I'd bet most of the old mafia families' members are generational by now with rare new members. And that is not how the Black Org are portrayed.

Shinichi may think there's only one worldwide criminal Organization after becoming Conan, but the fact that he caught onto them in the first place makes them seem like new upstarts who want the power that the 'old blood' has. Even if Shinichi dismantles them and sleeps peacefully after their takedown, the mafia will still exist and continue on like always. Families like that die off often enough, the mafia at large will not be worried. And this is something Shinichi will not see. After all, he grew up with people being reported dead on the news with regularity and he uncovered enough murder cases with no ties to the underworld to believe most of them to be caused by the hands of a person who snapped.

TL;DR In a crossover setting between KHR and DCMK, I see the latter as a POV Outsider to the mafia as we are introduced to it in KHR, and the exploration of all the implications thereof on the civilian population.

What do you think?

Gotham Skies glow Brave and Bold

When Thomas Wayne dies, everyone feels it.

It doesn’t matter that it’s late at night. It doesn’t matter that most people are asleep or that some are so hopped up on caffeine they can taste color or that some are so drunk they can barely remember if they’re wearing shoes or not.

None of it matters.

Because suddenly, without warning, every single person in Gotham, from the poorest urchin to the sleaziest mob boss to the richest philanthropist, hears a sound like a gun going off right before something snaps.

It’s like the world stops.

Suddenly, breathing is impossible, throats caught on nothing but the shocking feeling of loss. Suddenly, skin becomes freezing cold, like all the warmth has been sucked from the room. Suddenly, knees buckle and eyes shoot open and heads turn unerringly towards the same place, looking to where there is now a hollow space in countless chests.

And suddenly, everyone knows.

Thomas Wayne is dead.

Gotham’s Sky is dead.

Someone killed their Sky.

The world stands still, breaths caught and fingers freezing and Souls screaming.

And then the world burns.

----------

Because if DC and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! existed in the same universe, you know everyone in Gotham would have Flames and you know the Waynes would be their Skies.

[khreborns]

[pretend-im-not-there]

Finally got to Reborn's future arc, and because I like putting things like this down, here's a list of flame effects in Varia arc fight order.

Sun: Rejuvenation. A support flame, but useful for Ryouhei's inheritance from Colonelo, where he needs to recharge energy for the maximum cannon.

Thunder: Sharpening. Gamma explained this, mostly cause Lambo is a toddler. 20-year future Lambo best Lambo.

Storm: Corrosion. Explained by Ryouhei's opponent, not really shown in Gokudera's fights. Judging by the amount of field enemies with storm flames, it's good for attack, though.

Rain: Dousing. Makes sense. Outside of Zero-point, it's the only flame effect that cancels another's flame.

Mist: Hardening. Can make illusions real as shown by Mukuro.

Cloud: Propagation. The second flame that makes sense, considering clouds. Both growth and amount are applied by the flame.

Sky: No real effect known. It's a jack of all trades flame, but doesn't seem to have a specific effect.

[ciaossu-imagines]

So, I'm writing these on my phone, so please excuse any typos or the length. So, I've been thinking about the Dying Will Flames from KHR lately and how the characters from my other fandoms would fit those flames and figured I'd share my thoughts on K and the big four of HOMRA!

Now, since all Sky Flame users we've largely been exposed to have been bosses of their respective families, which does make sense considering the flame itself, one would automatically assume that Mikoto, as defacto boss of HOMRA, would, of course, be a Sky Flame user but I honestly don't see that at all. It just doesn't fit him to me and I'll go a bit into why in the explanation of what I do think his Flame is. Now, with Mikoto, I see him having a dual Flame, with Cloud being his predominant type with a secondary, weaker, Lightning Flame. Now, while he is the Boss, I think the most fascinating thing about Mikoto for me is that he's always come off as someone who kind of stumbled into being a boss-type figure. It's not something he sought out and I don't think it's something he ever really fully embraced. Like, he is the Red King, he is the top of HOMRA, but I do see him, in the anime and in the manga, who kind of always does keep himself to himself in some regards. He doesn't fully embrace relationships with others for the most part, with a few exceptions, and while he does care about those in HOMRA, he kind of always does his own thing and largely seems okay with letting them do their own thing. He truly is 'the drifting cloud' who protects the family, or HOMRA, in this case, from where he really is at the moment instead of really rallying the rest of HOMRA or meeting them where they are. It's not that he doesn't care about them; it's just that to Mikoto, his own feelings and wants always are what takes first priority. He leaves the rallying and organizing to others better suited for it. Now, in terms of fighting, even though his Lightning Flame is weaker, I do seem him using it more during actual battle than his Cloud Flame. More or less, Mikoto is someone who does enjoy fighting, going on the offensive instead of the defensive more often, and the Lightning Flames help him more that way. Truly, in battle, he does as the Flame suggests - draws the damage towards himself, serving as a lightning rod for anyone dumb enough to try to take him on. For those curious, I do see him having a Lightning Lion type box animal, whose roar can project a solid barrier but whose body is almost shrouded in electricity that will electrocute anyone who touches it.

Now, Totsuka is actually the one I see possessing a Sky Flame. While he doesn't seem the typical Sky Flame user, especially since he does prefer to follow, does prefer to support instead of to lead directly, he, both as a person and in the role he fills in HOMRA, lives up to the Sky's responsibility of accepting all and enveloping all. We see, especially in MOR, that Totsuka is often the one that new members get to know best, who kind of acts as a welcoming host and is the one people are encouraged to go to with questions and the one who the HOMRA members really find themselves the most influenced by, again, especially shown in the manga. The Sky Flame's characteristic of Harmony is especially shown in Totsuka's personality itself and in how he deals with and sees the world. On top of that, the Sky Flame can be combined with any other type of Flame and I really feel that Totsuka was the best, among the top three of HOMRA, at really getting along with, building relationships with, and combining his own personality with all the other HOMRA members. He truly did kind of colour them all with his own personality but at the same time, the other members of HOMRA inspired and were accepted as was by Totsuka. For those curious, I see his box weapon as being a Sky Slow loris, something really deceptively cute but incredibly dangerous, much like Totsuka himself.

When it comes to Izumo, it never occurred to me that he could be anything other than a Rain Flame. The Rain Flame's duty is 'to square away conflict and wash away the blood spilled, the requiem of rain'. And really, when it comes to HOMRA, Izumo is the one who keeps everything together. Who takes care of all the issues and problems and who keeps an ear out and an eye on things. Without Kusanagi, HOMRA could not and would not exist. Though the opposite of the free-spirited and accepting Totsuka, Kusanagi still very much influences and colours the lives of all the HOMRA members and is the one that anyone of them would trust and put their faith in to solve any problems the members can't solve themselves. Another interesting bit regarding Kusanagi and the Rain Flame is that Rain Flames can negate or cancel out other flames to a certain extent and I do feel that, in his dealings with the other HOMRA members, this also very much fits Kusanagi. A harsh word or a lecture from Kusanagi can and has kept members, and even Mikoto himself, from doing stupid things. While he takes more of a background to the more charismatic Mikoto and Totsuka, I think without Kusanagi's influence, and without a good Rain Flame user, that HOMRA wouldn't work in the long run. For those interested, I think his Box Animal is a Rain Flame Bat, just because of spirit animal symbolism and all, haha!

Shocking nobody, but Yata is definitely a Storm Flame. "Continuously at the heart of the attack, the furious storm that never rests." Yeah, that's most certainly Yata and I don't feel like there needs to be a lot of explanation for this one. Yata is unapologetically who he is - brash, hot-tempered and hot-headed, unafraid to use violence as a means to protect or to achieve his goals. For those curious, I see his Box Animal as being a murder of Storm Flame crows, at least four or five Box Animal Storm Crows that he uses in conjunction with each other, simply because he thinks only one would be lonely for the Box Animals.

The way they both force Sky to have fake Guardians and force Elements to bond and serve a Sky weaker than them

Force bonding is such a interesting bashing concept

Pawns all of them

To trap both Skies and Elements

Shoving people with each other and forcing flames to bond

Tsuna's fake friends are a good exemple

[drknedcrystal]

You know how in the anime Murasakibara is like "no one can defeat me why should I listen to you?" And then Akashi says "Sit."?

Here's the historical version of that scene: War Prize Atsushi after Emperor Akashi defeats his army.

The story focuses more on Atsushi finding his purpose after the loss.

I think.

Actually I just wanted to write a story where Kuroko gets inked so there you have it! Enjoy!

[tokiro07]

Things keep making me think about Reborn lately so here I am back on it

Where did the Earth Flames come from? Everyone is stated to have Dying Will, and everyone in the cast is designated a Sky Flame type at some point or another, even non-combatants, so how did this group of seven lineages all happen to get seven distinct flames that were apparently limited only to their bloodline?

The Night Flame at least was explained to be a result of the Arcobaleno Curse, but the Earth Flames have no known origin or explanation at all!

Maybe they're some kind of mutation?

Or going by the rune-like symbols that appear when in use, perhaps they're more like a spell, a deliberate alteration to the Sky Flames? The Tri-ni-Sette were meant to keep the world in balance, maybe they came from an attempt to solve the same energy crisis?

As always, my questions about the Earth Flames are abound and the thing that really keeps bringing me back to this series

[tamethespaghetti]

Sometimes an apology isn’t enough.

[rendnotmyheart]

Literally Grantaire and Enjolras make me insane because what do you mean Grantaire believes in nothing, but he believes in Enjolras??? Insaneeeeeeee
