One of the many tragic aspects of Mikuni's character is that if he were to prevent the affair from happening, misono wouldn't be born.

With that being said, the reason why he would want to be misonos' father becomes simple. It's because that's the only way to prevent the affair from happening, and still make sure his little brother is born.

I mean, someone's gotta do it. (Im sorry lmao)

Im thinking he goes back in time, offers Hokaze to marry him to solve the money digging issue, meaning she wouldn't have to go after his father. Preventing the affair, preventing his mothers death & countless others, while also making sure misono still gets born eventually, except it's as his.. and Hokaze's son.

...yeah

And this might be the first time you'll find me not rooting for him.

[a-s-levynn]

Okay okay i kept him prisoner in my inbox for way too long and he needs to be released to the wilds. He is doing the slapsies way too cheerfully just to keep it for myself.

[volivolition]

You hear a commotion outside, days after halloween had already passed...

You hear the door creak open...

VISUAL CALCULUS - It's not like the house is our permanent residence, anyways. We live in the void of a headspace. HAND/EYE COORDINATION - Yeah, this is just a convenient depiction that one of the Concepts made. Anyway, catch, Crowny!

[nightdustfallen]

Friend?

Hmm.. let's see..

ps: since there wasn't any exclamation point aNu equivalent i just.. kinda did a thunder/squiggly line, added a dot and called it a day

[waywardstation]

hi! i havent been on tumblr in a Hot minute but i wanted to come here JUST to tell you that hfbe might be my fave pla fic ive read ao far! the worldbuilding and the characterization of everyone just feels so so right i fall in love

i reread it on ao3 and even tho its not completed its still a joy to reread everytime

Hello hello!! Anon you have no idea how much it meant to me to get to read this. Knowing I put something out there that you wanted to back to and reread means A LOT.

I’m glad you like it so much but man I have been editing the first two chapters (fixing errors, making characters say and do things that are more in line with how I write them now, and just adding scenes in between to help things seem more clear or hit harder), and I’m like man this really isn’t that good haha.

It’s fun to see how much I think I’ve improved since I’ve started trying to write fanfics (I wasn’t aware of how obsessed I had been with commas and run-on sentences at the start lol)

So reading this nice message really gives me such a boost of motivation. I’m so glad you like the worldbuilding, and it makes me excited to get more out because later chapters are when I really introduce specifics on a lot of things. Namely the Pearl Clan’s hunting parties, that has been my favorite.

Now I just gotta get more out! Hoping to put more out for you to read soon kind anon, I really appreciate that you find it’s something you like to reread!

For now, here is a snippet below the cut; I am unsure if I have shared this before, but it’s a scene where Ingo is preparing to advocate for the Clan to use pokeballs to store their pokemon in, so that there is less food consumption (as in HFBE, it’s emphasized that pokeballs put pokemon into a stasis where they don’t need to eat, drink, sleep, etc. for as long as they’re in them. Ingo does it with his pokemon, and he wants the clan to do it too, for their own sakes).

Wording is subject to change (VERY MUCH SO), but enjoy!

—————

“Excuse me Miss Irida, but may we talk for a moment?”

The Pearl Clan leader turned back to see Ingo – he was trailing behind the group, purposefully so. He had been waiting for the right moment to approach her.

“Right now?” Irida’s eyes flickered back over the tops of people’s heads, up towards the communal hall at the top of the hill. “I’m sorry, but can it wait until after the meeting?”

“It is actually about the meeting.” Ingo’s grey eyes were unwavering, waiting — he wanted to ask her something. And Ingo was not one to usually ask for things.

“Ok,” She relented, pausing in the snow both so he could catch up, and they could have their conversation with some privacy. “You have until we reach the hall.”

“Thank you, I assure you it will be quick.” Ingo fell into step beside her, shuffling through the snow as they now both trailed behind the group heading towards the warm hall. He kept his head tilted down just like her, using the brim of his hat to protect against the wind and snowfall. “I, well… I am planning to re-propose a proposition at this meeting tonight. I’d like to make another attempt at advocating for the use of pokeballs.”

“Tonight? Are you serious?” Irida lowered her voice for his sake, looking back between him and the group. How could he possibly think about proposing that when this meeting was for them to discuss how to prepare for this famine? “I’m saying this not as your leader but as your friend, Ingo; now is absolutely not a good time for that. Everyone is already going into this meeting angry. And if you try and start this again, they’re going to-”

Irida took a deep breath; she was already getting stressed over it.

“You know how people are going to react to that. You know who it’s going to upset, Ingo. Especially after last time. And you said you’d let it go.”

“I am well aware of what I said and I intended to stick to it, but these circumstances have changed our tracks, and I believe this may save us from derailing!” Ingo whispered back. He kept throwing quick glances at the nearing hall, gauging how much time he had left to persuade her. “Pokeballs can help us much more than the clan realizes – I’m confident that this can bring us closer to a solution, if not at least be a part of one!”

Irritation and confusion were replaced with genuine curiosity, but a fleck of doubt hesitantly followed after. Irida shook her head, not understanding. “How could they possibly help with all of this?”

“I will explain that in the meeting.” Having conquered the snowy hill, the two reached the warm light that spilled through the hall’s windows to project onto the snow. “But to do that, I need to actually present my proposal, and I’m afraid that will be difficult with the elders tonight. I am trying this for the fourth time now, and I’m aware of how this will most likely be received. I expect they’ll call to send me back to my seat before I even start.”

Ingo paused just outside the doors, waiting for Irida to go in first — she could do so and end the conversation right now if she wanted to, but she didn’t. Instead she stood there, staring at their fading shoeprints in the snow.

Irida could see why he approached her about this now, and a part of her felt sorry for him. “So you want me to vouch for you.”

“Not the proposal itself. Just the time to talk.”

wesker's opinion on the new crazy info that the worlds "best neurologist" faked like 200 of his 800 papers?

sorry It took me so long to get to this, I don't know why

I had to look this up because I am not in the science fandom and holy shit?? This is fuckin crazy??? Chat he's kinda cooked

Think he'd probably mock him a lot, might be a little impressed with faking 200 papers because I AM. But it's Wesker so he's not impressed with anything unless it's like uroboros or Chris oiled up.

Going like specifically of canon and not being stupid he'd laugh at him and then forget about it, maybe hope uroboros would infect him. Probably call him a disgrace to science or something along those lines.

Merlot has had a weird day today, for one, everything looking a little different. Maybe it was the sleep deprivation kicking in, so he returned to the Winery, the sky already dark by the time he had returned… it had been a long day, or maybe two, he lost track.

He pushed open the door to the winery and took in the sight of the place that had been his home when he was a child, briefly his ear folding down as he looked around, tugging down the bandana covering his face as he looked around. He had kept it as clean as he could over the past few years but never under his care had it been this clean, his brows furrowing together as he looked around. It hadn’t been this clean since he was a child.

His defenses were up rather quickly, prowling through the winery, avoiding any creaky floorboards, anything that might give away he was in the house to any trespassers, though seeing a light on in his papas office made him hiss lowly, approaching the door and opening it, about to draw his blade only to see his papa, his eyes widening as he stared at Diluc, a Diluc who looked very much alive.

~ Merlot ( @far-too-many-ocs )

Diluc felt his heart skip a beat as he met those green eyes—so unmistakably his son’s, yet framed by a face hardened with age and battle. The red streaks in the man’s hair, his stance, and the scars carved into his skin spoke of years and hardships that couldn’t belong to the little boy he’d kissed goodnight just hours ago. His jaw clenched, fingers tightening on the hilt of his blade as he steadied his voice, though a hint of disbelief laced his words.

“Merlot?” he demanded, his tone both a question and a warning. “How is this…?”

He took a step forward, eyes never leaving the man who so closely resembled his son yet radiated a wary, almost haunted maturity that felt foreign. Diluc’s mind raced through possibilities—visions of the Abyss, perhaps an elaborate trick or illusion. He raised his blade slightly, ready to counter any sudden moves, his gaze fierce yet searching.

“What sort of Abyssal trickery is this?” His voice was low, almost a growl, as he searched the face in front of him for some sign, some undeniable proof, that this wasn’t his little Merlot.

But there, in the eyes he recognized and the way this Merlot stood—poised but a little unsure—he could see a flicker of the child he’d held and protected all those years. His guard lowered just a fraction as he searched Merlot’s face for answers.

i know this has been said 473773474833 times by the kavetham/haikaveh shippers and probably even nonshippers, but i'll say it again. I finally finished the genshin summer event and did the little after quest in sumeru and.....every time kaveh is sneaking around trying not to be noticed coming out of alhaithams house it's just such a gay vibe. he's basically screaming "I can't be caught being gay in a homophobic society!" even if that's not what the game writers are *actually* saying. that's just how it comes off and they can't make it come off any other way. with hoyo's gay history, it makes me wonder if it's on purpose and all a cover-up to have a technically different reason for it so they can get away with it lmao but we will never know.

[already-impatient]

We need to talk.

- @agent-slozhno

What is it.

[igarbagecannoteven]

hi!! just read your cake at the craft store fic and thought I'd introduce myself on here :) you're a talented writer and seem like a lovely person!

oh my gosh thank you so much! that's so sweet of you 🥰i'm so glad you enjoyed my work! (and thank you so much for the lovely comment on ao3!) also love your handles on both ao3 and here, i'm a big fan of herons myself 😊

[theerurishipper]

The show tried so hard to make Adrien a perfect puppet that any possible dream or ambition he could have would be tainted by others. That's why it's hard to picture what job would suit Adrien or what he will become when he grows up. In every fanfic he either becomes CEO, baker or a physics professor( based on an off-hand comment "This cat got physics in the bag"). But neither of those feel like something Adrien would have wanted to become.

I think he could become a good therapist with his experience of being a therapy cat to Marinette and his emphatic nature. He could use his experiences to help people with similar problems, so that they would not suffer like he did. Is what could possibly happen, had miraculous not made Adrien Marinette's prized boyfriend. However that doesn't feel right either.

It's like he is Schrodinger's Adrien. You don't know what can become of him, unless he opens up. He can be anything you want, also not at the same time. What job do you think would fit him?

I honestly don't know! I like the baker idea, I think that's something Adrien would want to do, but I honestly can't think of anything. But I do agree that the show itself doesn't care about that question, or Adrien in general, because he only exists to be the love interest. He could have been so much.

Thank you for your ask!

[kithtaehyung]

i think they all partake in 4/20💀 but mainly tae jimin and bro

omg you sent this so long ago but also.. add jk in here and you're right djkfhsdhf

[willowser]

Random question but how many asks do u get on average? I’m asking a bunch of other blogs too

so—i'm not going to answer this question !! quite simply bc i think that, in the era we're in within our fandom and in our community and in our niche, i think that numbers have the potential to cause more grief than good, and on the off-chance that someone sees a number in our little corner here and ever uses it as a comparison to their little space—i would be devastated.

but !! i do want to take the time to say that i try to answer every ask i get with similar levels of enthusiasm, and if i haven't answered your question and you know that it sent—i am coming !!! i am on the way !!! i want to chat with you about your ideas !! but it just takes me a lil more time bc i want to make sure i'm returning the effort that you gave me 🩷 and a lot of times, i like to keep some of the sweet things yall take the time to say to me—to myself ! before i share them with everyone 🩷 so if i haven't responded yet, i'm holding your hand in mine !! and thinking of what to say 😌

[ The sturdy steps of the Rhamshackle Prefect are the first thing on video.

The cameraman giggles, Pomefiore colours flashing before the person behind gets back to filming.

"Wait, what's so interesting about the Rhamshackle dormhead?"

The cameraman gasps, shaking the view as they flash Scarabia colours next to them.

"First Deuce, now the rhamshackle dormhead?! You have no shame, do you.... I bet ace of the firsties is your favourite, purely because that boy would fight everything just for it."

The silence from the scarabia extra speaks for itself.

There is a shaky inhale of air, and the camera just barely picks up the murmured. "Oh my sevens."

"Anyway– back to the Rhamshackle prefect, why them?"

The camera sharply twists, leaving the prefect out of sight as the cameraman gets ready to launch an incredible informative bomb on their fellow extra.

The video ends with the Scarabias: "The sand should sink with me, what have I done..." ]

Hey! The Rhamshackle Prefect is so #cool! The crew thanks the prefect for having all the braincells of the firsties! Someone had to have them-

If you ever see this Rhamshackle Prefect, know the crew supports you! ( minus the Scarabia and the... mouse from Heartslabyul ?! Why—)

SoOXISHSHBROA—

— Cameraman, the crew @nrc-extras

Apologies to the Rhamshackle Dormhead. Our cameraman has tendencies to... ramble. To put lightly.

— Heartslabyuls Cat, the crew @nrc-extras

*They quickly turned around and looked at their surroundings, then turned back with a sigh*
