#Jim Kido

[proficdigimonstuff]

Jim Kido and Matt's Dad are the smartest characters in this show, at least in the dub.

[remember-digimon]

Good ol' reliable Joe!

When I first watched Digimon back in the 2000s, Joe was the character I related to the least. Now, as a big grown up in my late 30s, I finally understand what Joe is all about.

At first glance, Joe is anxiety incarnate. In the dub, he gets the 'nerd' trope that Izzy avoided for the most part. Joe is always allergic to things, worried about the slightest danger, and constantly trying to be the voice of reason. His 'voice of reason' however is more 'voice of general complaints and worry.'

If I recall correctly, in the original Japanese, Joe is like this because he's the oldest, at 12 years old. He feels it's his responsibility to make sure everyone is safe since he's the upperclassmen in this situation. In the dub, he's just a worrywort.

Joe takes on responsibility that he could easily delegate to other kids. In the episode where Gomamon evolves into Ikkakumon, Joe tries to break up an argument between Tai and Matt about climbing a mountain, only managing to get drawn into the argument himself. Later, he decides that he should climb up the mountain on his own as a compromise. He doesn't even bring Gomamon with him; Gomamon tags along anyway, of course, but initially Joe intended to go by himself.

He shows initiative, that's for sure. At least when the pressure is on. Others have noted that Tai, Sora, and Joe are the action-takers while Matt and Izzy act more defensively with Mimi, Tk, and later, Kari in mind. I like this thought, especially for Joe. He is often stumbling into danger out of his need to be the 'adult' of the group, feeling responsible for everyone's safety.

One thing we should discuss is his crest. I want to go more in depth on the crests on a different post, but here I think we need to talk about Joe's crest being changed for the dub. Originally it was the crest of faith.

Honestly, I do think reliability fits Joe a lot better. It is awkward for that to be a trait of a child (Remember, their crests were developed back during the original Digimon Adventure OVA, when Greymon fights Parrotmon). But I do think he exemplifies being reliable, because it's the right thing to do.

Conversely, Joe doesn't really expect others to help him. He wants to be relied on, but doesn't want to rely on others. He saves TK from drowning in the bay without thinking of his own safety.

Joe is also the studious member of the group. At one point, while they're temporarily back in Odaiba, Joe takes a practice test and fails it. This causes him a lot of anxiety. It feeds into the situation at home, which is another point I'll get into shortly.

In Our War Game, Joe is unreachable because he's taking an entrance exam. He's in a panic the whole time, showing how important it is that he does well. No doubt he's one of those cram school kids.

As for his family, we do meet his older brother Jim, but not his parents. In fact, Joe's parents are the only ones we don't meet out of the original 8. We do hear a lot about his dad, though, who has high expectations of his sons. Mr Kido wants both of his sons to be doctors like him, and on his terms, too. Jim says he wants to go to less developed countries to practice medicine, and that their father doesn't approve.

Jim also doesn't seem to have much faith in Joe becoming a doctor due to his high anxiety, and the fact that he faints at the sight of blood. Joe seems apprehensive about it himself, even though he does eventually go into med school and become a doctor.

To me, Joe's story is one of perseverance. When he's working off his debt in the diner, he fully expects to work there until it's paid off and is genuinely surprised that Matt would offer to help. When his test scores fall, he resolves to work harder. Even though he doesn't like the idea much at first he does eventually become a doctor. I can see how the original script would give him the crest of faith with all that in mind, but I still think reliability fits him better. He doesn't just have faith that things will work out, he's proactive in making sure they work out. Even if he's a little clumsy about it.

Lilliputian adventures Chapter 6

@gt-daboss @voraciousvore

Tori's fingers trembled as she flipped the bag flap closed on her side bag. She had gently placed Telwin, Mavri, Fildor, and the rest of the tiny Lilliputians inside. She could feel their miniature bodies shifting and adjusting, finding secure positions amidst the folds of fabric.

"Is everyone okay in there?" Tori whispered.

Telwin's voice piped up, his voice sounding muffled through the fabric. "Snug as a bug! Don't you worry about us, Tori. We're made of sturdy stuff!"

Pulling out her phone, Tori's fingers flew over the screen as she composed a message to Uncle Jim:

"Hey, Uncle J, I really need to see you. Can I come by the dock? It's urgent... Please."

She hit send and held her breath, praying he would respond quickly. Uncle Jim had always been there for her, a steady presence in the chaos of her life. If anyone could provide a safe haven from Trina and provide aid to her tiny guest,it was him.

As Tori waited for a response, she paced back and forth, her mind spinning with worst-case scenarios. What if Trina caught up to her before she could get to the dock? What if Uncle Jim responded poorly to the Lilliputians?

"Deep breaths, Tori," she muttered to herself, trying to calm her frayed nerves. *You've got this. You have to protect them. *

Her phone vibrated with an incoming message, and Tori's heart leaped into her throat as she read Uncle Jim's reply:

"Of course, kiddo. Come on down. I'll be here."

Relief flooded through Tori.

Tori slung the bag over her shoulder and headed towards the dock with renewed purpose.

The salty sea breeze whipped through Tori's chestnut hair as she hurried down the dock, her side bag bouncing gently against her hip.

"Uncle Jim!" Tori called out, spotting his familiar figure hunched over a tackle box on his weathered fishing boat.

He looked up, his sun-worn face breaking into a smile. "Hey kido! What brings you down here in such a rush?"

"Can we... Can you take me out on a trip?" she asked, her fingers tightening around the strap of her bag. Tori reached into her pocket, pulling out a slip of paper with scribbled coordinates, her hand trembling slightly as she offered it to him.

Jim unfolded the paper, his brow furrowing as he studied the numbers. "This is way out, Tor.”

"What's eating at you, kiddo?" Jim's concern was palpable as he scanned her face, looking for clues.

Before she could muster the words, a shrill voice cleaved through the air. "Tori!"

Trina stormed down the dock, her face contorted with rage. She jabbed a finger at Tori, her eyes wild with accusation. "You thought you could hide from me?”

Tori's heart hammered against her ribs, fear and panic rising in her throat. She instinctively clutched her side bag closer, shielding the tiny lives within.

"I don't know what you're talking about, Trina. Please, leave me alone."

Trina's lips curled into a sneer. "Oh, don't play dumb with me. You have those little freaks, and I want them. They're mine, and you stole them!"

Uncle Jim stepped forward, his voice low and warning. "Now, hold on just a minute. What's all this about?"

Trina whirled on him, her eyes blazing. "Stay out of this, old man. This is between me and Tori."

Tori's mind raced, desperate for a way out. She couldn't let Trina expose the Lilliputians, couldn't bear the thought of them falling into her cruel hands.

"Uncle Jim, please," Tori pleaded, her voice trembling. "I can't explain everything right now, but I need your help. I need to get somewhere safe."

Trina's laughter rang out, harsh and mocking. "Safe? You think you can hide from me? I'll expose you and those little freaks to the whole world. Everyone will know what a lying, thieving little brat you are!"

Tori flinched at the venom in Trina's words, tears stinging her eyes.

"I won't let you hurt them," Tori whispered, her voice barely audible over the pounding of her own heart. "I won't let you take them."

Tori’s heart pounding as she darted towards Uncle Jim's boat. She leaped aboard, her feet stumbling on the deck.

"Tori, get back here!" Trina screeched, her face contorted with rage. "You can't hide from me forever!"

But Uncle Jim blocked her path. "I don’t know what this is all about!" he said sternly, "But you’re not welcome here, I suggest you scurry on home.”

Trina sputtered, her anger momentarily deflated by Uncle Jim's imposing presence.

As the heated argument escalated, Tori huddled in the boat's cabin, her trembling hands reaching for her bag. She could feel the Lilliputians' tiny forms, their presence a comforting weight against her side.

After a while, Tori’s Uncle crouched in front of her. “What’s going on, Tor?”

Suddenly, a new sound sliced through the discord, its shrill cry growing louder by the second. Tori's hands fell to her sides, and her breath hitched as the unmistakable sirens wail reached her ears.

"Police? Did she really just call the police?" Jim's question hung in the air, confusion mingling with frustration.

"Thought I'd teach you both a lesson," Trina shouted triumphantly.

Panic seized Tori, her mind racing with images of handcuffs and questions she couldn't answer. The tiny people—their safety in jeopardy if discovered.

"Officers will want to hear all about your thieving niece," Trina crowed, her voice reaching a fever pitch as the sirens crescendo, closing in on the dock.

“I’ll handle this; you stay here, Tor,” Jim said, but before he got off the boat, he pressed the boat key into Tori’s hand.

Tori glanced over her shoulder, catching a glimpse of Uncle Jim gesturing animatedly as he engaged the police officers in conversation, his voice rising and falling with persuasive intensity.

*He's buying me time, * she realized, a surge of gratitude mixing with the adrenaline coursing through her veins. *I can't let this chance go to waste. *

Tori's hands trembled as she inserted the key into the ignition, the engine's roar drowning out the sound of her own pounding heart.

With a deep breath, Tori shifted the boat into gear, lurching forward as she navigated away from the dock. The wind whipped through her hair, and the salty spray of the ocean misted her face as she focused on the horizon.

Mavri emerged from the side bag, her red hair whipping in the wind as she climbed onto Tori's shoulder, her tiny hands gripping the fabric of Tori's shirt for balance. "Tori, let us help you," she called out, her voice carrying a note of authority despite its small size. "My crew and I, we're experienced navigators. We can guide you through these waters."

Tori glanced at the tiny captain, a flicker of hope sparking in her chest. "Oh, thank God! Cause I don’t know what I’m doing!”

Mavri snorted “I can see that.”

Tori blushed. “That obvious, huh?”

Telwin clambered up the fabric, scaling up her body to stand on her other shoulder. “No worries, lass, you sail, and we’ll tell you where to go.”

Fildor, his keen eyes scanning the horizon, called out from his perch on top of Tori’s head. "Captain, I believe I know which direction we should head. Our home should lie to the northeast based on the stars and the sun's position."

Mavri nodded, her expression thoughtful. "Aye, that aligns with my instincts as well. Tori, can you adjust our course accordingly?"

Tori, her hands trembling slightly on the wheel, nodded. "I think so. Just give me a moment to get my bearings."

As she began to turn the boat, a sudden gust of wind whipped across the deck, causing the tiny crew to grasp onto the nearest surface for stability, which happened to be the giantess they were all perching on.

"That's odd," Telwin muttered, his brow furrowed. "The wind seems to be picking up rather quickly."

Fildor, his expression grim, pointed towards the distant sky. "I fear it's more than just a passing breeze, my friend. Look there, on the horizon."

Tori followed his gaze, her heart sinking as she saw the dark clouds gathering, the distant rumble of thunder echoing across the waves. "Is that...a storm?"

Mavri, her face set in determined lines, nodded. "Aye, and a fierce one at that. We'll need to brace ourselves. This won't be an easy ride."

As the first raindrops began to fall, Tori squared her shoulders, her jaw set in a determined line. Come what may, she would not let this storm defeat them.

The wind howled like a wounded beast, lashing at the tiny boat with a fury that seemed almost alive. Sheets of rain pounded against the deck, turning the world into a blurry, gray haze.

"Hold on tight!" she called out to her tiny passengers, her voice nearly lost in the roar of the wind.

Tori gritted her teeth, squinting through the driving rain. *I can't see a thing, * she thought, panic rising in her throat.

Just as they began to hope that the worst was over, a massive wave rose up before them, towering over the tiny boat like a watery mountain. Tori's eyes widened, her heart seizing in her chest. There was no time to turn, no way to avoid the wall of water bearing down on them.

The wave crashed over them, and the world went black. Tori felt the icy water close over her head and felt the burn of salt in her nose and throat. *This is it, * she thought, a strange calm settling over her. *This is how it ends. *

Digimon Adventure ~ J.P.N Version ~ Episode 39 + Izumi Koushiro{u}'s Parent + Kido Shin (Jou's 2nd eldest Sibling)

"Don't say such {negative} things! I {b e l i e v e} in these children!" - Koushiro's parent, referring to Koushiro and, the "Chosen Children" as a Whole, (including Jou)

"It'll be all right, Nii-san.

We'll make {absolutely} sure the s u n does 'come up'!"

-Kido Jou, after overhearing from afar, Triumphant-like

Original commentary, Image Usage & Interaction rules under the 'read more'!

My Commentary: This small but significant sequence takes place not long after Koushiro is revealed to be a canon Adoptee. Mrs. Izumi is fully aware that Koushiro has accepted Mrs. Izumi (+Izumis both) as Koushiro's true parent{s}, however, we are not given indication that the other supporting characters were actually told about 'the secret' of Koushiro's. Shin's surprise, in that regard, can hardly be held too much against Shin - which Mrs. Izumi eventually quickly recognizes, dropping the argument and frustration - Shin was likely completely unaware how strongly Mrs. Izumi felt during these moments, while Mrs. Izumi was likely running on pure adrenaline responding!

Mrs. Izumi, in the original version, is also using a neutrally polite speech pattern that is overall appropriate when speaking to children; Koushiro, in the original, is also known for speaking throughout the entire series with a formal and polite pattern that is "unusual" for Koushiro's age, while it's more "typical" for Mrs. Izumi to use similar in this sequence.

Shin Kido, Jou's 2nd eldest sibling closer in age, the 2nd born of the three Kidos, is the sibling who appears throughout Adventure Episodes 35~39 and later Adventure-specific episodes (such as flashback sequence in Dark Masters arc) specifically. In the 2nd sequel series, "02", Jou's oldest sibling, Shuu, was introduced. The U. S. dub combined "Shin" and "Shuu" into "Jim", a singular character, but they were actually two separate siblings! (Thus, Jou is speaking to Shin as if Shin is the younger of the two siblings, addressing Shin commonly with a 'casual' "Nii-san", though in this scene, Jou sounds surprisingly more 'assured' and perhaps a slight bit 'full of' self, but is quickly grounded by Sora and Mimi not long after.)

Apparently I have this idea for a Kim Possible Bleach crossover.

I was looking through some of my old files as I’m looking to move everything out of google docs, and found this--  When the Go comet hit the siblings were killed and their souls trapped in the meteorite. Because the meteor was now in the “soul realm", due to the trapped souls, Ōetsu Nimaiya came down and collected the fragments and turned them into 4 zanpakuto. However because they aren’t blank like asauchi they are finicky and can’t find true masters.Kim’s school on a field trip to a museum that is displaying four swords when they are attacked by hollows. However only Kim, Ron, Jim, Tim, Bonnie and Will du can see them. Master sensei says the have to use these four swords to fight the hollows, while he gives Ron the lotus blade.

Jyoumi Challenge 2021 Day #10: Surprise

I haven’t written nearly enough pre-Jyoumi stuff, and this wasn’t even originally set to be this, but after looking up info on Japanese high school graduations and the tradition of girls asking for the second button of the uniform from the boy they like, I went galaxy brain and decided to pivot to this. I hope you all enjoy!

---

He was graduating high school today. Next month he’d be going to the University of Tokyo, to start towards his career in their School of Medicine. His test scores had been good, his transcripts were solid, and as he’d been told both by faculty at his high school and his upcoming counselor at the university, he would have a bright future ahead of him as long as he kept up the hard work.

So now, as Joe was sitting there next to his peers, why was he feeling so sad?

He looked off to the side to see his mother, father, and brother, parents looking ahead at the stage, while Jim shot him a smile and a thumbs up. He craned his neck a little more and saw the large gaggle of his best friends that had managed to get in. Honestly, seeing Tai dressed up nice was enough to elicit a weak chuckle from him, unable to help but offer the group a small smile as they waved, smiled, and shot him thumbs ups.

But at the same time, while seeing the people he cared about most there and cheering him on for his big day, it was just a reminder that one person wasn’t there: Mimi.

It was a long shot that she would’ve been able to make it out there in the first place, but given that she was in the middle of her spring semester back in New York, she couldn’t make it. And sure, he was appreciative of all the people who could make it, but he had really wanted his best friend to be there and see him get his diploma. Joe swallowed a lump in his throat as he turned back ahead, watching the ceremony start.

Given that the entire day prior had been dedicated to going over and making sure he and the other students knew the insides and outs of the graduation ceremony, Joe knew what to do, but of course, there was a part of him that was a little terrified of messing up. Bowing in the wrong direction on accident, lingering around too long, tripping over his feet…

Oh god, his stomach started to drop and he moved to wipe away a few beads of sweat that had started to form on his brow with the back of his right thumb.

Even as long as the ceremony was, Joe made sure to sit up straight, at attention, and stay focused. When it was his class’s turn, Joe took a deep breath, remaining ready for when his name would be called at a moment’s notice, looking as each of his classmates were being called and heading to pick up their diplomas.

Meanwhile, in the back where the other DigiDestined were standing, the door slowly started to open. Kari’s head instantly shot around, smiling when she saw a familiar brunette peek her head in. The entire group turned to look after, smiles on their faces as they saw Mimi there. She tiptoed in, sidling up next to Izzy and TK, unable to contain the smile on her face and practically vibrating with excitement.

“I didn’t miss him, did I?” she whispered. Izzy shook his head.

“You made it just in time, Joe’s class is going now,” he told her. Mimi bounced on the balls of her feet as she waited anxiously, the seconds stretching out into minutes and the minutes into hours as she waited for his teacher to call his name.

“Joe Kido!”

When his name was called, Joe instantly shot up.

“HAI!” he shouted, heading up to the stage to get his diploma. Mimi couldn’t help but giggle at his exclamation, and as tempted as she was to start clapping or cheering for him, she barely managed to hold back.

Joe took in a deep breath as he walked to the stage, still feeling more than a little sad, first bowing to his teacher, then the audience, and then the principal, before he took his diploma. He strode back to where he was sitting, diploma in hand, he looked around. His family was all smiling, and so were his friends, and…

Mimi!?

Despite everything she had said, there she was, standing with the rest of the DigiDestined, waving at him with one of the biggest smiles on her face that he’d ever seen. He stopped in place, garnering a few looks of narrowed eyes from a few class representatives, but he quickly recovered and sped forward back to his seat with a bright red face.

How did she get there? She said she wouldn’t be able to make it! But she was there? His mind was racing, and it felt near impossible to pay attention to the other students who were being called, the speeches, or the songs that made up the rest of the ceremony. Part of him, throughout the rest of it, had been tempted to look over his shoulder to see if she was really there or if his mind had just conjured Mimi up to help him feel better.

Once the ceremony was done, all of the homeroom classes were ushered back to their respective classrooms for goodbyes and their yearbooks. As Joe started to leave, he looked over at his family, waving goodbye to them, before his eyes instantly darted to his group of friends.

Mimi was still there, and the entire group of DigiDestined were waving at him. Joe waved back, and when Matt let loose a loud wolf whistle that garnered a dirty look from his homeroom teacher and the principal, he ducked his head sheepishly and sped up his pace.

The last stretch of time in his homeroom dragged on far too long, and the second they were excused to go, Joe tucked his yearbook under his arm and just about ran out.

She was actually there, he wasn’t just imagining it. He started to skid as he rounded a corner, running faster than he had in a while, and collided with someone, causing both of them to tumble to the ground.

Two loud thuds sounded out, other people heading past them, looking confused, as Joe and the other person started to sit up.

“I’m— geez, I’m really sorry about that,” he sighed, rubbing his head and wincing. “Are you ok?”

“I’m ok, yeah,” came the familiar voice of one Mimi Tachikawa, and Joe’s eyes instantly shot open.

“Mimi! Oh my god, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to run into you like that, I was just…” he paused, “…Well, I’m sure its obvious” he added, unable to stop himself from blushing. Mimi grinned and pushed herself up off the ground, offering him her hand, which he wasted no time in taking.

For a few moments they were silent, Joe dusting himself off as he looked at her, while Mimi simply stood with her hands behind her back, looking up at him with a loving smile. The world fell away, the rest of his classmates— former classmates now— invisible to the both of them as they only focused on each other.

“I couldn’t believe it when I grabbed my diploma, and I only believed it a little bit more when I was leaving for homeroom… but…” he said.

“Surprise?” she said, a teasing smile on her face.

“But how? You said you wouldn’t be able to make it.”

“I thought I wouldn’t, either! But I managed to convince my parents to let me take a sick day tomorrow,” she said with a triumphant grin.

Joe frowned slightly, “Are you sure? You won’t put yourself behind or anything?”

Mimi shrugged and waved his question off, “Eh, it’ll be fine! Plus how could I possibly be expected to miss your big day?” she asked.

“Well, thanks… it really did make my day to see you,” he told her. Mimi preened even more than she already was.

“Congrats on the big day. I’m proud of you,” she told him. Joe’s blush deepened and he looked away, the goofy smile on his face which caused Mimi’s heart to soar.

“Thanks. I know I don’t have that long until I’m starting classes again, but believe me, I’m happy to have the break,” he laughed.

“You deserve it,” she said, going quiet as she looked him up and down. “So…”

Joe tilted his head slightly.

“So…?”

“I was wondering…” she started, rocking back and forth on her heels, “If I could have your button?” she asked, gently tapping on the second button of his uniform. Joe choked, blinking a few times as he processed her words. He opened his mouth to speak, before wasting no time in unhooking the button from his uniform and holding it out for her. Mimi reached over and gently plucked it from his palm, holding it in her hand and holding it up to her heart, smiling and blushing.

“Thanks,” she said simply. However, looking at him still seeming so dumbfounded, she couldn’t stop herself from giggling, “It can’t be that surprising to you, can it?” she asked.

“I— Well— I just— You know—” Joe stammered, tongue tied and unable to get any coherent thoughts out.

She took her free hand and grabbed one of his, “Well, we can see if everyone else thinks it’s a surprise then, yeah?”

Diana Grace

What if.... Davis Motomiya is born a girl by the name Diana and she has a big secret that she kept from her friends she’s a ..... Demigod the Daughter of Apollo.

          Diana left Odaiba after the defeat of MaloMyotismon for good since she has been drifting away from the rest of the Digidestin even from her mortal bestfriend Ken Ichijouji, since he has been spending more time to his new girlfriend Yolie Inue. Which I didn’t mine, but it feels like were not even friends anymore.

While I was in the park with Veemon an old clock sales man aproach me and given me a chance to be a different type of Digidestin and I accepted his proposal to become different time of Digidestin, I become a General every since then.

                 When I arrived at Digi-Quortz which are similar to the Digital world except the whole place look like a digital version of the human world.

 The Digimon that join my army are:

Apollomon

Dianamon

Leppamon

Raze Greymon

Guilmon

Rosemom

Floramon

I am the General of Miracles and after all the Generals defeated Quortzmon we return to the real world, but we all stayed in contact with one another even if we aren’t in the same town or country beside some of the Digimon Generals are Demigod like myself for example:

Mikey Kudo the demigod son of Hermes 

Jeremy Tsurgi the demigod son of Hermes

Angie Hinomoto the demigod daughter of Ares

So all the general knows about Demigod, but they still accept them. So after I return home their seem to be no time past which I didn’t mind beside All the Child Digidestin wouldn’t miss me one bit since their all to busy with their own life so they wouldn’t even know that I’m leaving Odaiba and moving to New York.

Diana being a daughter of Apollo, she’s great music and healing like all her brothers and sister.

              5 months later...

 The Digidestin finally notice the absent of Diana’s prescent so they went ro visit her at her house.

                                                      Ding.....Dong....

And Jun open the apartment door.

“ Oh... it’s you guys, what do you want? ” Jun ask.

“ Can we see Diana ” Kari said.

“ She’s not here ” Jun replied.

“ When is she going to get home? ” Ken ask.

“ You guys don’t know do you? ” Jun aak after look at them all in the eyes.

“ We don’t know what ? ” Cody ask.

“ My sister moved ” Jun replied.

“ Moved?....Where did she moved away? ” T.K. ask shock.

“ She moved to New Yorkbto be closer with her father and other siblings” Jun said.

“ Ah... this might be little personal but don’t you and Diana shared the same father? ” Yolie ask.

“ No.... Diana is my younger half sister.... well if that’s all goodbye ” Jun said Before closing the aparment door to their face.

 Before all the Digidestin left the Motomiya home and meet up with the older digidestin and told them what Jun said to them.

“ Did you guys even know she move at all ” Matt ask.

“ No ” Yolie said.

“ But, where still pick up the signal of her D-3 in Japan ” T.K. said.

“ It’s quite possible that when she left Japan. Diana left her D-3 behind ” Izzy said.

“ I suppost ” Ken said.

“ But I still can’t believed that Diana moved ” Yolie said.

“ Yeah ” Kari said.

“ I guess we are to bussy with our own lives that we didn’t notice that Diana left Japan ” Cody said.

“ I guess your right.... we been slowly drifting away from one another since the the defeat of MaloMyotismon ” T.K. said.

My mortal sister Jun Motomiya invited my family to her wedding to Jim Kido the older brother of Joe Kido the child of Reliability and I haven’t  seen the child Digidestins for almost 13 years since I left Odaiba. I know that Jun would most likely invited them all their yo her wedding since she’s marrying Joe Kido’s older brother.

“ I guess your right ” Yolie said.

“ So what dose Diana do now a days? ” Kari ask.

After the wedding the Kudo and the Grace family left and went to Shinohome to meet up with the rest of the Generals.

“ Hey, Jun what is Diana doing now a days? ” Tai ask.

“ Well Diana is a famous Actress and Singer, but she also own a Resturant Businesss that she runs. She also went to Medical School like her brothers and Sister, but she never went to be a Doctor but she dose have a degree for it. And her husband Jason Grace is an Actor and he also own Grace Airline. ” Jun said.

“ What?! Diana’s an actress and Singer ” Yolie ask shock.

“ That’s right. Well this is wehere we leave you ” Jun said before She and Jim left for their Honeymoon.

  Nene Amano end up marrying Christopher Aonuma. And she work as a Zologu expert while Christopher becoje a Marshal Art Instructor and they have one daughter together Lita Aonuma who’s the same age as Minako and Serenity.

Mikey Kudo become a Gym Teacher in New York city and Angie open up her own resturant that could rivals that of Diana’s. Mikey and Angie has two children and they are Heero and Duo Kudo.

8 years later...

Serenity & Minako  Grace, Lita Aonuma, Heero and Duo Kudo are now 14 years old and their family are currently living in Japan and all their memories of their pass life has return to them a month ago, so they have discretly collected all the 7 Rainbow crystal before making it one and Serenity hiding it from her body.

Minako Grace was the reborn princesss of Venus and she was also the captain of Inner Senshi of Princess Serenity. She was Sailor Venus the Senshi of Love and Beauty. She already at Princess Sailor Venus while she is in active that dosen’t mean they don’t trainn well those who remember their true memory of their past life not the one Queen Serenity want them to believe.

Lita Anomua is the reborn eelf of the princess of Jupiter, she also happen to be the secound in command of the inner sendhi of Princess Serenity. She is the senshi of Bravery and Protection, Sailor Jupitor, and Like Minako she has trained hard to reach the level of princess Sailor Jupitor.

 Duo Kudo was the reborn self of the Prince of Saturn and the half-brother of Princess Serenity and Sailor Saturn, he is the secound in command of the Planetry Knights.

Then their’s Heeero Kudo was the reborn self of the Prince of Jupitor and the half-brother of princess Lita of Jupitor and the capatain of the Planetry Knights.

Then Finally their is Serenity Grace vthe reborn self of Princess Serenity of the Moon. She is tge crown princess of the white moon kingdom and the true misstress of the Sliver Crystal which she currently hiding inside her own body. While her mother  Queen Serenity didn’t want her to be train as a senshi dhe sneak out to train as one without her mother knowladge. She also reach the same level as Venus and Jupitor, she now Princess Sailor Moon.

Serenity POV

 I have cut  any bond that I may have with PrincevEndymione XII since they may have been enganged to marry one another in their first life, but they did not love one another their Engangement was only to stop War from breaking out between the Moon and Earth Kingdoms, hut instead their Engagement cause the destruction of the moon Kingdom. Because of Endymione’s ex-girlfriend who he had to leave because if their Engangement. Beryl who is a Noble daughter from Earth, broke the Ancient Seal that contain one of the most Evilnbeing on Earth Metalicana which  my mother Queen Serenity sealed away long ago. And now  Metalicana possesed Beryl and she had rallied an Army and attack the Moon kingdom the lead to it’s destruction.

   At that time I was not awared that my younger half sister Princess Selena of the moon.

Have been visiting Earth many times that she end up meeting Endymione and fall in love with him even though she know the moment she heard his name that he is the Fiancee of her older half sister, but she didn’t care, but her rendezvous stop after the annocment of Serenity and Endymione’s wedding. For our mother would have her head if she didn’t.

I’m not awared who Selena’s father is in our last life and I’m 100% sure that she was not the daughter of of King Hades of Saturn, no one really know who her father is.

   Recently Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury are awaken most likely by Luna and Pluto awaken Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus earlier with the other inner scouts no where to be found. After the battle with Queen Beryl, Minako Grace finally found Artemis again but by then we were to Japan to go back to San Fransico.

          And we arrived home, we meet tye reborn self of Sailor Saturn who happen be my younger half sister in our last life, she is a legacy like us being the daughter of Koichi Kimura the son of Ares and Legacy of Pluto. He happenb to be a different Digidestin, he is a Warrior Digidestin.

We become friends with her. Serenity & Minako Grace both dream of become a famous Actress and Singer like their mother Diana Grace. Since they have godly blood in this life they inhearte their frandfather’s power as a legacy of Jupitor and Apollo.

A lunch with close friends and family

Please please reblog if you like! And comment, I want to know how you feel about this piece!

Let's say, that magic doesn't exist. There are no trolls, or changelings. There is no magical amulet. And there is no evil troll Underlord. If the world Did have magic, three teens would have found themselves connected by the weight of their destinies. But lets say that those teens are still able to connect in a story where they didn't have the weight of the world on their shoulders. This story could have happened in that world had things worked out different, but instead here we are. 

Barbara Lake, single mother of one, had spent years learning to read body language. It was necessary for her work as a doctor. And with raising her son by herself, she became especially attuned to the differences in body language in a subset of the population. 

She had noticed the tension in her son's shoulders when he mentioned his girlfriend's parents. What better way to help ease that tension then for all the guardians of his tight knit friends group to meet?

So far, things weren't going exactly how she had envisioned them. Due to the order they had arrived and the way they sat down the kids ended up scattered across the room. She could easily read the tension and stress in the room. 

Barbara knew her son's signs best. He was desperately trying to stim in one of the "quiet hands" methods his therapist had taught him, by tapping on the side of his leg with his fingers, but it was clear by the way he would rock forward then stop himself that he was on the edge of a panic attack. 

Jim wasn't the only one about to have a panic attack. Barbara could see that Claire was as well. 

Ophelia and Javier were sitting on either side of her. At first she had been tapping her fingers together. A stim Barbara had recognized as a personal favorite of Jim's.  She had wondered with some amusement if Claire had picked it up from him. However when Ophelia noticed Claire stimming she reached over held both of her daughter's hands with her own. 

Barbara was barely able to contain a grimace. Claire had all the signs of being touch adverse, like the way she had to stop herself from flinching away from her mother. Ophelia had removed a non harmful coping mechanism and replaced it with something that rapidly increased Claire's stress. 

Claire almost immediately switched to a less harmless stim. She used the heel of one foot to press repeatedly on the toes of her other foot. When she could extradite one hand from her mother's she started slowly pinching her leg and digging her nails into her skin. Barbara guessed that was why she always wore tights and long sleeves even in the California heat. 

Jim picked up on his girlfriend's stress and could only watch her step on her own toes or pinch her legs. Now his quiet hands weren't enough of an outlet for his growing anxiety. He was actively rocking back and forth and was struggling to contain his audio tick, but Barbara could still hear the clicking noise he made with increasing frequency. Jim's stress wasn't helped by Javier glaring at him every few seconds. 

Of course, Toby, poor empath that he was, was reeling from the waves of anxiety coming off his two best friends. So he coped the only way he knew how, by talking loudly, quickly and without pausing for a breath. His hand flapping was increasing to a pace that would soon cause air currents to start in the living room. 

Privately, Barbara wondered if the Nuñezs ever actually got Claire diagnosed with autism, or if they just insisted that she be "normal." Ophelia with such a public facing job always needed her daughter to look like the average American teen. 

She knew for a fact that Nancy had never gotten the diagnosis for Toby. She loved and supported him but his life would have been much easier if he had been given some coping strategies early on. 

She had recognized the early signs in her own son from a very young age. She worked with him and a few child therapists to help give him some positive coping skills. Most importantly he learned how to advocate for himself. He knew how to talk to teachers or school officials to make sure his needs were met. 

And he took that skill to advocate for others. He would never let anyone bully Toby, and made sure their teachers knew to let Toby stim when he needed to. Of course advocating for his girlfriend to that girlfriend’s tight laced parents was another matter entirely. That was a job for a mother. Though if Barbara didn’t do something soon, she would have three anxiety attacks on her hands. 

“Ophelia, Javier, Nancy, I’m a disaster in the kitchen, would you mind helping me get some lunch ready?” Barbara asked. 

“Oh of course dear.” Nancy said. 

Toby’s Nana marched right into the kitchen. Javier and Ophelia hesitated looking at first Claire, then each other for a moment before following Barbara into the kitchen. Jim’s head whipped up and followed the adults into his realm. Barbara made eye contact with him for a moment. 

“Don’t worry kido. I know not to touch your knives!” She said. Then she flicked her eyes to where Clair was sitting. Jim smiled subtly and motioned to his friends. 

By the time Barbara had finished directing the adults and had stuck her head back into the living room the kids had resettled. Claire had moved to the very edge of one of the couches, and her legs pulled up to her chest, she seemed to be trying to make herself as small as possible. Toby was next on the couch, sitting close but not touching Claire. He was still talking quickly, but Barbara could tell it was moving from anxious chatter to excited chatter. Jim sat next to him, leaning slightly on his friend and twirling a pencil between his fingers just like he would do with his knives. 

Barbara smiled and returned to the kitchen to give the kids more time to themselves. She was so happy they had reordered in a way that made them feel more comfortable. Claire now sitting in such a way that no one could touch her, sheltered by her two friends. Toby, with a friend on either side was able to feel them calm and that in turn calmed him. Plus Jim’s weight leaning on him helped ground him better than any weighted blanket. And Jim was in his best spot. Protecting the people he cares about. He was turned a little way from them, his back on Toby’s shoulder. No one could approach his friends without him seeing them. Just the way he liked it. 

While the kids unwound in the living room, Barbara worked her magic in the kitchen. Javier was the easiest. He could look around the kitchen and see how well organized it was. He could see all the knives where sharp. Barbara was sure to mention that Jim was the master of this kitchen and everything was set up the way he liked it. Javier slowly lost his annoyed and distrustful posture. He even started leaning out of the kitchen window to talk to Jim about whatever kitchen gadget he had spied in the cabinet and Jim was more than willing to talk about it. 

Ophelia took a little longer, but Barbara was persistent. She got Nancy talking about what it was like to raise Toby by herself after he lost his parents. Barbara talked about her own ex husband abandoning her and Jim. Ophelia may seem like a hard ass, but she still cared about people, and there were few things more inspiring than tales of single people raising kids by themselves. The stories helped show that everyone there was human, and connected, and the boys would never allow any harm to come to her Claire. 

Eventually lunch was ready. The parents joined their kids in the living room for a casual meal on the couches, there was no need to retire to the dining room. Jim, Claire and Toby were relaxed and actively engaged in fiery discussion about some show they loved. Claire had even unfolded herself and put her feet back on the floor. With them relaxed and enjoying themselves and with some subtle nudges from Barbara the parents started to relax as well. Soon there was lively conversations happening all over the room. 

Barbara could only watch her son and his friends talk and interact with maternal joy. How wonderful was it that Jim had two people who were so like him? All three of them fit together like pieces of a puzzle. They complimented each other perfectly. And slowly the guardians were warming up to trio as well. It would take more time, more lunches, more hangouts. But soon, anyone would be able to see that these three were meant to be friends. 

 I just really wanted to write a little story about the Trollhunters Trio being their amazing autistic selves. I love them so much, and I definitely project a lot of my own stuff onto them. Please tell me what you think. I really hope everyone enjoys this.

Wrap-Up: December 1st - December 10th

Been writing quite a bit for December so far! I committed myself to some daily advent challenges, so that's getting me off my butt. However, I have fallen down the Miss Marple rabbit hole and missed a few days. (The show, not the books.) Not sure why, but winter and the holidays? I must binge all the cozy mysteries I can get my hands on. Nothing say it's the holiday season for me than murder and nosy detectives. 

Around my side of fandom, SK8 the Infinity released art of the characters dressed up like their skateboards! AHHHH. Cherry and Joe look amazing! The chain around Joe's neck? Cherry's piercings! Yes to all of it! The Matchablossom artists have been having a field day and so, so many amazing interpretations were created.  

In other news, I'm back to my reading slump, which sucks. However, the few weeks that I was reading I finished many books off my TBR list. I highly recommend Jennette McCurdy's 'I'm Glad My Mom Died' and Jim Derogatis's 'Soulless: The Case Against R. Kelly'. They are heavy reads, but the stories are so insane. McCurdy's writing is so good and Derogatis's relentless pursuit on reporting on R. Kelly deserve praise. 

Till next time.

Such a Joker (25/?)

https://jeromesxreader16.tumblr.com/post/160862271367/such-a-joker-24

This man who claims to be my father opens the doors and let’s me walk into an apartment. I look around the place. It’s small but I’m not complaining.

Later on into the night as I try and get settled a knock on the door occurs. Jim looks at me with wide eyes. Why is he scared?

He breathes and stands up going to the door. He grabs his gun and opens the door. I lean over and see a pretty blonde woman in the open doorway. “Hands up. Hands up!” Jim yells at her.

The woman simply rolls her eyes and follows his request. “Better?” She asks walking in with her hands up. “Face the wall.” He tells her.

She looks at me and sighs. “Oh (y/n)! I was so worried! I thought you wouldn’t wake up! I’m so happy you’re okay! Coma’s suck!” She cries with cheer and hugs me tightly.

I pull back and she notices my confusion. Jim sighs and looks at me with sadness. “Memory loss. Doctors say she might gain it back. Doesn’t remember a thing. Not even me. Now what are you doing here? You’re supposed to be in Arkham.” The woman giggles sweetly. “And you’re supposed to be in Blackgate.”

Jim closes the door. “I cleared my name. I’ll ask you again. What are you doing here?” The woman sighs and puts her hands down. “I was released. Call then you’ll see. I’m telling the truth. It’s what I do now.” Jim scoffs “that’s hard to believe.”

I narrow my eyes at him and stand up. “I think she’s telling the truth Jim- I mean dad. Sorry.” The woman looks at me and hugs me again. “My names Barbara.” “Do we know each other well?” She nods and smiles. “Better and anyone else.” She replies making me smile.

Jim cocks his gun. “Set away from her. After the day I’ve had I have no problem shooting you.” Barbara puts her hands up again. “Okay I believe you. Look when I came out of the coma the memories I had were horrifying like waking up from a nightmare. The person who did those things that’s not me.” She says on the verge of tears. Jim looks at me and sighs. “(Y/n) I want you to go to your room. Don’t come out until I tell you to sweetheart.” I nod and follow his orders.

Jim Pov: After I send (y/n) to her room Barbra looks at me. “She doesn’t remember a thing? Not me? Not you? Not even Jerome? His death? Her running around with the maniax?” I shake my head. “And it’s going to stay that way. She doesn’t need to remember him. I don’t want her to. She’s back and with her memories or not I’m never letting her go again. She slipped away when we stopped seeing each other, and she fell deep into a dark hole. She’s out now and I’m not letting her go back there.” “Jim. She’s got to know sometime. She looks at you like you’re a stranger.”

I scoff and lower my gun. “So they released you? Just like that?” “I mean, I had some issues to work through obviously, but yes I’m better Jim. I’m totally sane. I really am.” I smile slightly. “I’m happy for you. Please go.”

Barbra shakes her head. “You don’t believe do you?” “Frankly I don’t care. I have more important things to worry about.”

I walk and open the door for her to leave. “That’s it?” “I have work to do.”

She looks down at my open files on the table. “The lady. You’re investigating the Wayne murder huh? I’ve heard of her. You think she’s involved? Cause I could help you with this. I could spend some time with (y/n) and help her too!” I close the file. “No thanks.”

I grab her arm and lead her out the door. “Okay well maybe it was a mistake to come but listen at least to one more thing for me… could you say my name?” She stares at me with sad eyes. “Goodbye Barbara.” I say and shut the door. “(Y/n) honey you can come out now.” She does as told and walks out as my perfect little girl.

Not a minute later Harvey stats banging on my door. I answer it and we instantly start discussing the Wayne murder. “Someone must know where she is. This whole city and no one’s seen her? Impossible.” (Y/n) says from her place on the couch reading.

Harvey snaps and smiles at her. “She gets it! Come on Jim! Come back to GCPD. Both of you! You’ll have resources not to mention me. It’ll be like old times.” (Y/n) places her book down. “I worked with the police?” I smile and sit next to her wrapping my arm over her shoulder. “Sure did kido. Right under my wing. Training to be a directive, and you worked in forensics sometimes.” She smiles and stands up joyfully. “Well let’s do it!” “We can’t. We’d have Captain Barnes looking over us. I need to be able to do things my way.”

(Y/n) squints her eyes thinking. “I take it this guy doesn’t like us much?” “Bingo girl. You two don’t take too much time okay? I’m supposed to be training a rookie. It’s like trying to teach a halibut how to put on socks.” We laugh and I go over to the door to go out and look for this woman. “You’re only taking a gun?” Harvey asks. “You need something a little more pal. Here.” Harvey hands me some brass knuckles and another pistol.

As I open the door (y/n) hugs me. “Be careful.” I kiss her head. “Always.”
