#Patient tsu

[fatasticfeedernurse]

Ahh tsuyu chaan so this is where you're hiding!!

The eager villain jumped in from the window of tsuyu's room sharp smile on her she had a backpack damp with the greasy gifts she brought for her friends..

"ooooh i really hope they aren't trying to ruin my hard work hehe! Look at all the froggy flab out here.. All because of my love for my friends! Poke poke..~"

With one of her needles toga poked tsuyu's meaty arm a smile forming on her face drooling a bit with glee as the thick yellowish and red liquid spurred out.. Body so filled with lard even her blood was starting to have chunks of it..

"ooooh how cuteeee!! Even your blood is getting affected now!~ hehe oh I'm so sorry tsuyu-chan! I've been talking for so long you must be starving right?!.. No more of that icky hospital diet food for you!~"

The villain pulled a bag from her backpack you could barely even see the logo off the fast food place on it as she pulled out a greasy burger the size of one of tsuyu's cheeks out of the bag~

"opeen wiiide!! I'll make sure you're full before i find a way to bust your lardy froggy butt out of here okaaaay~ and if your heart starts aching weeell I'm sure there's a defribrawhatcha call it around here!"

Tsu hated the position she was in, unable to combat the extreme levels of morbid obesity she had aquired thanks to that maniatic villian that had taken a over fixation on her. She suffered sooo long under her care.... But alas, the dragon nurses took her in once she was rescued from the remote building Toga originally began to fatten her and others out. Did she enjoy her current state? Well... she didnt hate it, and it was much, much better than when she was under the care of Toga. So for a while she just enjoyed the pleasures she could indulge in this state. Sponge baths, foot massages,

treat day (Where the nurses would feed them something of their choice, which meant not lard!), letting out built up gas

, getting crumbs out of her massive chest with her tongue,

and many other little pleasures... ...So when the poor blob of pale flesh heard that voice again..Her poor, lardy, cholesterol filled heart filled with fear quicker than her cheeks with lard during feeding time.

"K-Kehroh! Noh..Noh! Tohgah, w-what'sh ahreh youh d-doin' hehreh?? goh a-away!!"

But her pleas fell on deaf ears. Toga just had one objetive in mind and it wasnt going to me changed any time soon. So she just moaned in pain as she felt the needle going into her meaty arm, and when she saw what her blood hard turned into...She didnt know what to think....

*BA-DUMP*

*BA-DUMP!*

At least for a few seconds, for then she began to feel a rush of blood through her veins, and no it wasnt for the stuff Toga was pouring into her. "-"Ah..kehroh..kehroh..nooh ...*thbbbt*... ihtsh ...*Bllbbfffttt*... wrong..mhghh..pleashe...please ...*prrrt*... " All this decadence triggered something into her lardy froggy brain, to which her body reacted in response. Making her add more sweat stains to her already drenched bariatric bed as her ass let out wet, panty wrecking farts. Tsu didnt know how, why or when...But a part of her wanted this...And when she was offered the same food that had led to her needing a heart trasnplant, she could only obediently opened her mouth.

Waiting for the rush her body would get from eating whatever it was that Toga had brough her...

*Beep!*

*Beep!*

*Beep!!*

*Beep!!!!*

Now its for sure that Tsu wont make it to 30..

>> katsuki bakugou x fem!reader

>> she/her pronouns, mentions of alcohol, reader is wine drunk and bakugou takes care of her, reader can’t handle spice, established relationship, this is completely self-indulgent

katsuki hears the thuds of footsteps in the hall and the muffled giggles and shushes and clanking of (probably now empty) bottles. he closes his book, accepting to himself that he will not be sleeping tonight.  

he could be mad, and he’s a little irritated, but it’s not the first time and it is most definitely far from the last. 

he opens the door just as mina raises an arm but doesn’t get the chance to knock. she gasps, hiccuping a little. she turns to you, ochako, and tsu behind her. 

“guys, i think he read my mind.”

“thanks for bringing her back,” katsuki huffs, beckoning you inside. you giggle, staying planted behind tsu. 

“are you gonna be mad?” you ask with big eyes. then you giggle again. “mina brought wine.”

katsuki rolls his eyes. “i can see that.” his eyes trace over the group again, taking a headcount. his brows furrow into a scowl. 

“where the fuck is hagakure?”

“toru got stuck on the roof, ribbit!”

katsuki groans loudly. it was always something. last time, you weren’t found until morning, napping in a closet. 

he takes you by the arm, gently but firmly leading you inside. 

“make sure somebody sends tail man after her, ‘kay? and i swear to god, ashido, do not come back here in the morning for a hangover breakfast,” katsuki scowls. mina grins and gives a salute. “aye, aye captain!”

“say goodnight, princess,” katsuki sighs, holding you around the shoulder to keep you from falling. 

eyes nearly closed, you murmur a dutiful, “goodnight, princess.”

the girls giggle before stumbling down the hall to drop off the next one. 

once they’re gone, katsuki rounds on you. 

“you are in so much fucking trouble right now.”

you whine. “noooo, don’t be mad, ‘suki, you said you wouldn’t be mad.”

you cling to him like a child, hardly able to stand on your own. you claw at his arms and look up at him with big pleading eyes.  

“don’t be mad? say you’re not mad, kacchan. please?”

he sighs, unable to deny you. “‘m not mad,” he huffs, looking away from your large eyes. 

“okay,” you mumble, nuzzling your head into his chest. 

your head snaps up suddenly. “‘m hungry, kacchan,” you slur, tapping insistently on his chest. 

katsuki shakes his head in disbelief. “your stomach is full of liquor, how the fuck are you hungry?”

“will you make me ramen?” you ask, batting your long lashes. even drunk, you know how to play him. katsuki agrees with pink cheeks. 

“fine. but just so you don’t eat all the damn cookie dough again.”

you giggle at the memory. 

“that was not an invitation,” he warns, leading you by the hand over to the kitchen. he sits you down on the counter to be able to keep an eye on you. god knows what trouble you’d get into on your own. 

katsuki doesn’t take long to set the noodles to boil, leaning against the counter while he waits. 

he turns his head slightly only to be met with the sight of your eyes, which are currently glassy with tears. 

“kacchan?”

“what?” 

“w-would you s-still love me…if i was *hic* if i was a worm?”

you blink and your eyes are giant and teary. 

katsuki pinches the bridge of his nose, willing himself to stay calm. while your absolutely helplessness was irritating, it was also a little endearing. he thought it was cute the way you got all fuzzy-brained. 

“yes, baby, i would still love you if you were a worm,” he answers patiently, scooping the noodles into a bowl and adding the seasoning. 

“i want it reaaally spicy,” you announce, leaning forward on the counter so far katsuki is afraid you’ll fall off. 

he hums in acknowledgment, but he’s not really listening. he knows you hate spicy food, weak little thing with no tolerance. 

so he holds up the spices and pretends to shake it in. 

you prattle on about how hungry you are, clapping in delight as he sets the food down in front of you.

he watches you devour the noodles, permitting himself a small smile at how cute you look when you’re stuffing your face. he's definitely gonna bring this up when you’re sober.

when you’re all done, happy as a clam, katsuki leads you by the hand to the bedroom. he listens with the ghost of a smile as you tell him about your day with a soft voice and trailing-off sentences while he gets you ready for bed.

you sit obediently as he brushes through your hair and cleans off your makeup, applying your skincare with gentle hands. your eyes are wide with adoration as you look at him, at his concentrated expression and the way his tongue is poking out the corner of his mouth as he finishes rubbing in your moisturizer.

he looks quite proud of himself by the end of it, satisfied little smile resting on his face as he watches you crawl into bed with a fresh, bare face and warm pajamas and a yawn.

maybe he’ll go easy on you tomorrow, just because of how cute you are when you’re dependent on him like this. he likes being needed by you.

“come cuddle w’me, kacchan,” you whine, holding your arms out for him as you burrow beneath the covers.

he huffs a little, but he’s quick to crawl in beside you. you feel safe and secure once he wraps you up in his arms, his voice in your ear after he presses a kiss to your forehead.

“g’night, baby. sweet dreams.”

MHA headcanons because the show makes me happy: part 2

This turned out sort of Bakugou heavy, I don't even like him that much but alas he's an interesting little guy. Like last time, if you don't like them or it clashes with canon that's okay. I can be wrong about inconsequential things sometimes. As a treat :)

----------------------------------------------------------

🌟 Tsuyu is autistic and does not mask at all. If you want a brutally honest opinion without aggression that comes from annoying Bakugou, Tsu is your gal.

🌟 Aizawa hates great danes. He's neutral about dogs in general, not his thing but people can like what they like. But great danes... They just don't sit right with his soul.

🌟 It does kind of bother Ojiro when Denki uses his tail as a fidget toy in class. But it seems to help him focus a bit so Ojiro doesn't have the heart to tell him to stop.

🌟 Thirteen has a program for troubled kids struggling with "villainous" quirks. They want to show people that if literal black holes can be used to do good in the world, so can any other ability.

🌟 Kirishima is a good singer but he only does it when he's alone. His singing voice is much softer than his speaking voice, and he thinks it's not manly enough. Bakugou knows this because he sometimes hears him practice Lemon Boy at night. He doesn't say anything about it though because he'd rather admit to Deku he considers him a good friend than jeopardize that experience.

- Welcome to the Bakugou interlude! One of these have a VERY brief mention of PAST domestic abuse, it's marked by this 💥 if you'd rather skip that. -

🌟 Bakugou got his passion for cooking from Auntie Inko. She'd always let him help with dinner when he stayed over, and taught him that cooking is a way to show love when putting it into words is too hard. Now he makes lunch for his friends every Saturday.

💥 Masaru is actually Katsuki's stepdad. Mitsuri managed to escape her abusive first marriage when Katsuki was four. After all the trauma, she found safety in the kind, gentle man that is now her husband. Masaru is endlessly patient with his son and Katsuki turned out to be 100% a papa's boy. And Mitsuki couldn't be any happier about that.

🌟 Not counting his boyfriend, Bakugou's closest friends are actually Ochaco and Denki. Besides Kirishima Ochaco is the only other student he considers a true equal. And Denki just kind of weaseled himself into his heart along the way.

🌟 When Bakugo is being particularly difficult Denki likes to call him a boomer.

🌟 Bakugou's worst enemies aren't the LoV or even Deku. It's Mina's neon pink and chartreuse zebra print faux fur collar dressing gown and Kirishima's 8-in-1 shampoo.

🌟 Pro hero Dynamight, famous for his smoky eye and sharp liner, has an alt skincare and makeup brand with violent names and edgy packaging but impeccable quality. His most recent release is the 3rd Degree palette, a collab with Shouto.

- That's it for the Bakugou interlude! -

🌟 Fatgum was VERY popular with both girls and boys in high school and all the "nice guys" were seething about it. He was a tall, funny, thick guy and the definition of a dad friend. He always had crackers or granola bars on him in case someone skipped breakfast.

🌟 Yaomomo takes commissions from her classmates if they want something made. She takes payment is in the form of chocolates equivalent to how much fat she has to burn to make the item, or based on how stupid she thinks it is. (She charged Denki 2 whole chocolate cakes for a maid dress.)

🌟 Hatsume is secretly working on a new hero costume for Momo. She overheard her confiding in Jirou that the outfit is cold and makes her feel exposed and vulnerable, so she stole some leftover scraps from Mirio's costume for studying and got to work immediately.

🌟 Even in his true form, Toshinori is freakishly tall. Endeavor, a full time beefcake of almost 2 meters, can just barely look the decrepit old man with turbo asthma in the eyes. And that drives him insane.

🌟 Toshinori thinks of his Allmight form as drag. When he lived in the US he explored all the things he'd missed out on living in a more conservative country and became a regular at the ballroom scene. The queens inspired him to camp up his hero persona to the MAX.

[florvaine]

giggling and kicking my feet at the thought of old-school love with shoto todoroki <33.

he’s sneaking out of his house to see you late at night just to cuddle up with you laying your head on his chest in your bed, no need for blankets because he’s using a small amount of his fire quirk to keep the two of you warm.

there’s no phones, so he’s sending letters to you everyday. even if you’ve seen him and spoke to him, you still receive a long letter, delicate words carved out in black ink, crafted his love for you into words with his bare hands. they’re tied with twine, a small, pressed flower encased inside the careful folds of the yellowing paper.

every week there’s a new bouquet at your doorstep. even when the two of you were in u.a, and he was slightly more reserved, your parents would still bring up a vase with a smile and comment on him being sweet. nowadays, he would knock on your door and give them to you personally.

every now and then he’s purchasing clothes or products for you - this can range from a dress you were eyeing up in the window of a yellow-walled shop, or a pair of loose slacks you mentioned months ago. perfumes that remind him of you, jewellery that, in his words, ‘don’t even come close to being as beautiful as you are’.

you want to see a new movie? he’s got you, and he’s brought all the snacks the two of you can ever want. casual bike rides? once you stop at the top of the hill, he’s not looking at the breathtaking view of the tiny town, but instead your face and the look of tranquility in your eyes. new vinyl you want? it’s wrapped in a brown-paper with a short note taped to it.

your laugh is contagious, as well as your smile. he’s showed more tenderness when he met you, his sister noticed.

the rain doesn’t stop him nor you, either. todoroki would happily run down drenched streets with you, hand in hand and twirling you so the hem of your soaked dress flows upwards at the movement. and then he’s pulling off his jacket to drape over your soggy torso.

he’d 100% place his coat down on a puddle so you could walk over it without dirtying your new scarlet heels.

and by god does he swear that he is the happiest, luckiest man in the world when he proposes to you.

“will you marry me, let me be your husband?” and then he’s sliding the indestructible metal loop on your ring finger with a tear-soaked kiss to your knuckles afterwards. there’s a shimmering gem, your favourite gemstone, that you mentioned once nearly a year into your relationship.

the wedding is extravagant. he took care of the venue after you talked about where you wanted it to be. besides, it was both of your days - but mainly yours.

he cried happy tears when he sees you, clutching a bouquet of red, white and grey flowers in a floral, silky wedding dress with a trail that tsu and ochako have to hold up so you can walk. your veil is long and lacy, but he can still see your face and styled hair. even katsuki can’t hold back a quivering smile.

the vinyls he gifts you get used, after moving into a cosy little cottage house on a hill with a open, emerald garden with acres of apple and peach trees. the two of you sharing glass after glass of port as the music blasts from the corner of the room. and then, he’s whisking you up from your seat on the sofa and you’re slow dancing. todoroki noses at your cheek and you can feel him smiling as he presses his lips against yours in a wine-tasting kiss.

but he’s scared when the doctors bring up the chance of you being pregnant. as frightened as he is at the idea, he’s by your side every step of the way. at your bedside whilst your in labour, letting you cut all circulation off from his fingers and shout curses at him.

and he waits patiently as his little girl is being cleaned and wrapped up, using his ice to cool you down, his hankercheif to wipe sweat off your face and tucking baby hairs behind your ears, kissing your forehead and muttering sweet nothings of encouragement.

when he holds your daughter, he swears that for as long as he was alive, she would not have a father like his.

and even after the time changes, as his daughter grows up, he still finds himself more enchanted with you by the day. he finds himself admiring every forming wrinkle on your face, the silky silver strands in your hair. but your eyes are as gorgeous as ever, and you still have the spark that you did when you were younger.

once your daughter leaves for collage, a bittersweet goodbye, the two of you move. and now the two of you are that sweet elderly couple that sit together in rocking chairs on the porch, overlooking and waving with smiles at others going through the same.

“(y/n)?”

“yes, love?”

“do you want to go on a walk through the park? i heard it’s delightful during autumn.”

“of course, give me a minute to grab my coat, hun.”

old love with todoroki shoto <333.

☆ relationship summary : Tsu and Ochako are dating you, and eachother!

commissions || masterlist || fandoms || navigation

ꪆ୧TSUCHAKO × fem!READERꪆ୧

Matching everything!!

Tsu would make you and Ochako bracelets, as well as herself, and have them match.

She'd be really specific with the bracelets, like finding beads/gems that match your eye colors/color scheme.

Ochako would find you guys matching clothes! Mainly pj's and sweaters!

Tsu definitely knits, so whenever Ocahko or you want something specific she'd knit it for you two.

Swimming is so fun for you three to.

If you didn't know how to swim, Tsu would 100% teach you.

Ochako would compliment your outfit as well! She may be a little flustered herself though.

She actually gets embarrassed easily, so PDA would have her very nervous. Tsu doesn't mind this, and neither do you.

Tsu actually prefers to keep your relationship on the low. She wouldn't make an effort to post or brag about it.

Spacey gf and Earthy gf

Shopping sprees! All the time.

Ochako doesn't have that much money, or any at all, so she usually window shops. Tsu isn't broke or rich, so she spends a normal amount.

If you were rich, they wouldn't use you for your money at all.

And if you were broke, they wouldn't mind!

Ochako loves to give you two gifts, she isn't able to buy the gifts, but she loves to make them.

Same with Tsu, it isn't her love language but gifts are something she loves to give.

Picnics by the pond. You three enjoy nature together all the time!

You three love to bake together. Ochako would bake you both your favorite desserts as a suprise.

Tsu is a very blunt person, but you and Ochako are very dense. It took her having to outright kiss you both for you and Ochako to realize she loved you two romantically.

Sometimes, when it rains, the three of you decide to take walks. Mainly for Tsu, but you and Ochako enjoy them as well.

Tsu's siblings LOVE you and Ochako!

Tsu notices when you or Ochako are nervous, so she holds your guy's hands to calm you down.

Ochako is the best at comforting! She's able to relate to people on a personal level so whenever you or Tsu are down she's able to make either of you feel better again.

Tsu is definitely into crystals, so she'd give you and Ochako ones that remind her of you guys.

Tsu and Ochako are able to communicate very easily with you.

Tsu is patient and blunt, while Ochako is calm and understanding.

If an argument were to surface, you three would understand eachothers side and improve.

Your communication with each other makes you all stronger!

In the winter, You and Ochako cuddle up with Tsu. You have to keep her warm somehow..

Unlike Tsu, Ochako would post you both!

Your dates, pictures of you, quotes or aesthetics related to you, etc!

She'd also tag you guys in the posts as well.

She isn't purposely making your relationship known, she just loves you both so much!

Iida and Izuku knew immediately, though.

Ochako loves to give you both kisses! Cheek kisses, lip kisses, anywhere on either of your faces!

PDA between you three is rare, but Ochako sometimes initiates it. As long as you and Tsu are okay with it, she is.

You guys have a special move together. Your quirks may be different, but you guys find a way to be a good team.

Ochako will steal you and Tsu's clothes, Tsu creates clothes for you two.

You and Ochako tried to pick up on Tsu's hobby for knitting to make her something for the winter. The first few attempts were horrendous, but you guys ended up making some at some point!

Matching phone cases.

Tsu's hair is so fun to braid/style! She let's you guys do whatever you want with it in the mornings.

They're always helping you pick out your outfits to help you out, or helping you with your hair.

Matching keychains!

You three always end up sharing clothes, if you had a similar style to either of them, they'd take your clothes more.

Ochako loves to help you with your makeup or skin care!

You two are the only people Tsu feels comfortably vulnerable with.

Shouto and his adoptive sisters, part 2

Would have loved to see an actual team-up between these two: The guy who thought his quirk works best without teammates around him, and the girl known for being one of the most versatile battle comrades you can have.

Asui is the older sister to two younger siblings. I headcanon that she talks to Todoroki like how she talks to them: Encouragingly and patiently, without any condescencion.

They got closer after Asui cried in front of him and the other kids, who sneaked away to Kamino. Todoroki was reeeally sleepy, but he still felt bad about having partly caused her distress, so he tried to talk to her more afterwards.

When the weather turns cold, Todoroki and Asui often end up sitting close to each other: First on the school bus, then anywhere else. Todoroki gets some comfort out of seeing how his fire side, which he had rejected for so long, can be helpful to others even outside of combat - be it to keep Dark Shadow obedient to Tokoyami, or to keep Asui from involuntary hibernation.

Headcanon: Todoroki intentionally chose the spot in front of Asui and Uraraka. He wanted Deku and Iida to join them but before they could, Aoyama and the other girls placed themselves around 1-A's pretty boy.

I saw a fan comic once, in which Asui brought Todoroki a cup of tea and he accidently refers to her as “nee-san”.  I headcanon that this has happened more than once. Todoroki’s cheeks turned rosy the first couple of times. Then Asui asked that he call her “Tsu-chan”, and he felt even more embarrassed by that.  

As such, Asui remains “Asui” when they are with others. She doesn't correct him, because when she’s alone with Todoroki-chan, she gets to hear “Tsu-nee-san.” Todoroki ends up calling her that nonchalantly. They also ignor that he's actually a month older than her. Considering how he doesn’t use honorifics with any of his other classmates, Asui feels rather special.

Todoroki really does emit youngest child vibes sometimes.

It seems like, barring Deku and Bakugou, most of Todoroki’s classmates didn't know anything about his family drama, until Dabi broadcasted it to the whole nation.

For example, I’m don't think Iida ever picked up on anything prior to Dabi’s dance. He's probably Todoroki’s closest friend (alongside Deku), and he cares a lot. But Iida also tends to be blind to emotional undercurrents. In one of the light novels, he accidentally pisses Todoroki off by telling him off for how he refers to his father. When he visited Todoroki in his room on Troy, he also made a well-meaning but misplaced comparison between their families.

However, a few of them did take notice of Todoroki’s complicated family life, e.g. Kirishima (Todoroki didn't hide much in BNHA's supplementary works). I headcanon that Uraraka and Asui were also among those, who at least picked up on the fact that Todoroki had grown up in a very strict environment. Thus, they tried extra hard to include him in their conversations and activities. This might have contributed to Todoroki warming up to the rest of the class much faster than he might have done otherwise.

[creative-kny-fics]

Hi! I hope you can accept this request, Lee! Giyuu, Ler! Tsutako, I don't know if this could be an AU but in this Tsutako is alive at the end of defeating Muzan.

You do Sanegiyuu, so one situation could be, that Tsutako starts teasing or teasing (jokingly tickling) Giyuu to tell her who her partner is (Giyuu didn't tell her because she was afraid that Tsutako wouldn't accept their relationship. )

Please and thank you

JJSHSKSHJSHDKSJS so cute 😭❤️

Ler: Tsutako Tomioka

Lee: Giyuu Tomioka

'The moon looks beautiful tonight, don't you think...?', Tsutako hid, she would recognize that voice wherever she went, it was her brother Giyuu's voice!

She was attentive to the other person's response, she did not want her brother to cry, what older sister or brother would like to see that?

"I can die in peace..." was the other person's response, but Tsutako didn't know, whoever it was to, Giyuu preferred to whisper it.

'I wonder what was the answer, I hope it was a yes, my brother is a good person. ...Maybe Giyuu will soon tell me about it'

To Tsutako's disappointment, it didn't happen, she knew that Giyuu was shy, but she didn't think that he would hide it from his sister about it, but Tsutako didn't want to pressure him either, everything was up to due time, right?

'Tsu... Are you okay? I've been talking to you and you haven't answered me?'

'I'm sorry... I'm thinking about Giyuu... There's something that happened recently and I don't know why he hasn't talked to me...'

'You mean what happened with that Kitsubiju man?', Tsutako laughed, she didn't know if her husband would have done it on purpose or not, but it comforted her.

She talked to him and they both shared the thought that the answer may have been "yes", but that they should give it the time, maybe that person was a little shy?

However, something Tsutako didn't like, if her brother had been accepted, why didn't he tell her?

'And... How have you been? It hasn't continued to hurt, has it?' 'Not much anymore... Although sometimes I'm afraid that it will become inflamed, infected or the wound will open'

'You know you'll have your older sister if any of that happens...', Giyuu looked at her and smiled.

Well, Tsutako's plan didn't work, maybe if she was more direct? 'Who is that person, Giyuu?'

'Huh...?', Giyuu understood, but what he didn't understand was how Tsutako knew, did he perhaps talk in his sleep?

Although that was the least important thing, he knew his sister and knew that she loved him despite everything, but he still didn't feel ready to comment on his sexuality, he wasn't ashamed or anything, he didn't know what was happening to him at that time...

'I-I don't know what you're talking about...' 'Giyuu, I heard you that night when you told someone "the moon is very beautiful tonight"... I know you weren't alone, why did you hide that from me?'

'I-I haven't hidden anything from you...'

Tsutako took her brother's hand and caressed it, and yet Giyuu felt scared, he didn't know exactly what, maybe it was fear that Tsutako wouldn't accept who he was with? Or maybe he was afraid of saying the wrong words? Or perhaps it was because he felt it was too early to comment?

'Giyuu, don't you trust me...?'

'I do, it's just that... I don't know... What if everything between us goes wrong? I wouldn't want you to feel bad because I start crying because that person left me... I'm scared...', Tsutako hugged him.

She, besides Urokodaki and Tanjiro, was the only one who has seen that side of Giyuu.

She waited until he calmed down, she also started to feel bad, she shouldn't have gotten involved in that matter, she should have been patient.

'Better?' 'Yes... I think so...'

'It's Sanemi...', Tsutako opened her eyes, that name seemed familiar...

Sanemi... Sanemi... SANEMI?!

'Are you talking about Sanemi, your childhood friend with whom you always met every afternoon and begged me, almost crying, to take you home to play?'

'Yes... That Sanemi...', Giyuu felt more relaxed, in a way.

Tsutako had that reference from Sanemi, but she didn't know that they were both "enemies" at some point, he never told her and maybe that must have been what terrified him before, yes, it must have been that...

'Giyuu! I'm so happy for you! You have no idea how happy I feel!'

'It... It doesn't bother you...?'

'Annoy me?! Of course not! I always noticed how you looked at Sanemi, even though you were a child, you seemed to be quite attracted to him, your eyes lit up so much that they looked like a flashlight hahaha! I also remember how you blushed out of embarrassment and Sanemi compared the color of your blush to that of a rose hahaha, you should have seen your face that day...!'

Or maybe that was what Giyuu didn't want, he felt his face burn with shame.

Did he remember all that? Yes. And even though around 10 years had passed, it still embarrassed him like the first time? Yeah.

'How long have you been with him?'

'I don't know... I guess it was a few months ago or maybe a year ago... I don't remember, things happened so fast that I didn't even measure the time...' 'WHAT ?!', Tsutako felt offended, "months", "a year ago"?!

So what she had heard a few weeks ago wasn't the true confession?!

Ooooh Giyuu was in trouble...

'And you never dared to tell me?! I'm your big sister! And I think you know what happens when you hide something from me...~'

'Ehehehe... I think your husband is calling you...' 'I'm sorry Giyuu, but you won't be saved from this~'

Giyuu blushed even before for Tsutako to do something, just seeing her move her fingers was enough to make him laugh, but he didn't even try to escape. Maybe he wanted that?

Or maybe he knew that if he escaped, it would be worse...

'Wahahihit!! Tsutahahako!!'

'Tell me something Giyuu, does Sanemi tickle you too like he did when you were kids~? Because if he hasn't, maybe I can help him remember...'

'Nohohoho!! Plehahasehehe noooo!!', Tsutako laughed, then apparently the answer to her question was a "yes".

Just thinking about those times made Giyuu's face turn so red that Tsutako could compare it to the kimono she used to wear when they were children, but she didn't say anything since she didn't want to embarrass her brother more.

'So, first you hide your relationship of almost a year from me...' 'Sohohohorry!!'

'I thought they had rejected you and that's why you didn't want to tell me! Do you know how I feel Giyuu?! Well, I think you know what's next for you...~'

Giyuu shook his head, he knew Tsutako and knew that she was the only person to make him squeal with a single raspberry.

'Wait!! Nononono!! GYAHAHAHAHA!!', Giyuu threw his head back while his sister placed the first raspberry on his tummy. 'Aaaaw, you haven't changed anything~. I remember how you always asked Sanemi to do this and he gladly accepted!'

'PLEHAHASEHE!! DOHOHOHON'T SAHAHAY THAHAHAT!!'

'And why not? Is it the truth~ are you still asking Sanemi to blow raspberries on your tummy~? Or maybe you ask him to tickle your sensitive ribs~? Or maybe you ask him to sing "itsy witsy" or "this little piggy" like before~?'

Giyuu let out the most embarrassing screech he had ever made, and that only meant one thing, this was just the warm-up...

A figure in the darkness, looking straight at me

"Did you really find Tokyo Manji?! Creepy!" Tsubasa disconnected from the computer just to listen to my account, wide-eyed, as if she were hearing the account of a supernatural event from Ed and Lorraine Warren, and being a cynic, I took advantage of the moment to gloat.

'I deserve a bit'. I think with satisfaction.

"I know, I know," I agreed proudly, crossing my legs and slipping my arms behind my neck.

"And what do they look like? Do they have war scars? Severed limbs? " The boy's glasses were crooked due to his bad posture in the chair, he stretched so much that he looked more like a meerkat snooping around outside his burrow.

"Tsu-kun, they're all students, not former war fighters!" I waved my hands, trying to appease the boy, with a sigh escaping my lungs, as I could never have thought that my co-writer would be such a fanatic about hooligan groups. "They're just a bunch of bums riding motorcycles and committing crimes, does that answer your question?"

"I think it will."

"Good." I concluded, stretching my arms lazily in an attempt to rouse my muscles, not very successfully, but it'll have to do.

"It's impressive, I have to admit…" The treasurer muttered quietly with some disbelief, walking away with some papers in his hands, and I still haven't asked him what the hell this bastard is doing in the journalism club room.

Then again, Yuuma wasn't used to paying me compliments, so that brief mutter in turn inflated my ego like never before.

"By the way, what did you come here for?" I blurted out as soon as the opportunity allowed, "don't say you came just to see me…" I let my evil smile slowly form.

"The President wants your report, incompetent," He replied with no patience whatsoever, the scowl on his face showing that he'd had a bad night's sleep or that Yuuma was just in a bad mood.

"Thank you in advance, now you can leave, I have things to sort out!" I waved my hand dismissing him, he just frowned and quickly left the room with heavy steps, closing the door harshly behind him "goodbye!"

"Rude, as usual," Tsubasa commented, opening the documents tab on the computer.

"That's very subjective" I retorted with gusto, approaching the boy to finally start the week's report. Miyura was in charge of printing the newspaper, so we'd have plenty of time before she came back with piles and piles of paper on our desk ready to be printed with the information and distributed like fallacious political propaganda throughout the corridors of this school "Well, let's get started!"

"Right," He began, filling in the title with a commonly used heading, then patiently skipping a few lines to make room for the first paragraph, "so?"

"Well…"

I slowly recalled the issues surrounding Tokyo Manji, along with what I had discovered about the world of delinquency in school environments. My notes on discursive topics prepared evenings before, together with the materials from my research, gave us great material to discuss.

As I explained to Tsubasa what to do, my mind crawled deeper and deeper, until it returned to the night before, where I experienced what a youth biker gang was like live and in color…

19:20 AT NIGHT

"So you have a high position and you didn't even make a point of telling me? What a cruel thing to do…" I gave the boy a betrayed look, but used to my bad manners, Mitsuya quickly realized the sarcasm dripping from my voice like a mockery. "You know, I could never have noticed all your pomposity with my naked eyes."

"At least I can say that I do what my job requires," the young man retorted acidly, although there was a mean smile on his lips that made me clench my jaw rudely.

"What are you implying, sir?" I asked, looking at him minutely, with my arms crossed as I carefully stretched to look at his face properly.

"Nothing much, miss, nothing much… " He feigned naivety, averting his eyes, and yet the little smile gave him away.

I clenched my fists and sighed longingly.

"Imbecile, anyone can look after a bunch of useless if they handle them properly!" I grumbled loudly, "Don't think that what you do makes you a big shot."

"Your friendliness captivates me more and more, Miss [Name]" Mitsuya's smile disappeared at the onset of my unscrupulous arrogance.

We remained silent until the motorcycles stopped not far from us and a crowd of uniformed schoolboys, clad in black and gold, got off them. I didn't make any comment, and my muteness seemed to annoy Mitsuya, who glanced at me every now and then, as if he expected me to say something or at least show some reaction. But the only thing I kept on my countenance was a hard expression of lowered eyebrows and suspicion.

The headlights illuminated us in the darkness, and soon, with the light, we were easily identified near the temple. We were looking in opposite directions, so I can tell you that I was astonished when a very tall young man came up to Takashi with his arms open and a beaming smile, as if I hadn't seen him for ages. He had a shaved head and a design in the little that was left of his hair, if I may also add that the most distinctive thing about his appearance was certainly the cut on his lip.

It wasn't long before they were both greeting each other vigorously. I was a little surprised, I admit, because I had never seen Mitsuya with such a broad smile, like a child unwrapping a birthday present.

"You make it sound like you didn't see me the day before yesterday" My schoolmate laughed, numbed by the conversation.

"I'm just excited," the taller one retorted hurriedly, "it's been a while since we've kicked some ass together, huh, Taka-chan?" His laughter infected the lilac-haired boy.

For a moment, his friend's gaze landed on me, but fortunately no comment was made.

"Mitsuya!" I heard a shout, a little further away, a blond man in braids with his hands stuffed in his pockets next to another blond man, this one much smaller, however, "come here!"

"Right! I'm coming!" He shouted back eagerly, breaking away from the tall young next to him to put his hand on my shoulder; for a moment, I wondered if he was trying to reassure me, "Come on."

"As you wish," I said dismissively, raising my shoulders as I entwined our arms, something that surprised Mitsuya, making him jump in his composure, but he continued walking with our arms linked without saying anything.

Until, at a certain point in our walk, the delinquent approached me to whisper in my ear:

"You're acting strange, what's wrong with you?" He asked hurriedly.

"You need to be a bit more specific." I moaning quietly, making a fool of myself.

"Are you… Are you…" He searched for words as I gave him a questioning look "docile!"

"Your words hurt my little heart, I'm not a dog, 'Taka-chan'" I pretended blatantly and he was embarrassed at the sound of the nickname coming out of my mouth "But, if you must know, I'm only doing this because I don't want to get too close to your strange friends. So do me a favor and be helpful."

Mitsuya couldn't say that I was being indecent in my precautions, he knew that himself, so he just sighed and kept walking.

"You're awful," he muttered one last time, to which I just thanked him with a little smile.

A few steps back, my companion's old friend asked him what the scandalous whispering was about, to which he just casually replied that it was a school argument.

"What do you know…" The tall blond looked proud, looking us up and down "aren't you going to introduce your girl?"

"You didn't say you'd bring a girl," the shorter one promptly added, nibbling on a soft, pink candy.

I wrinkled my nose a little at the question, but Mitsuya quickly responded.

"It was last minute" The boy in the black uniform next to me cleared his throat before stepping forward to continue, dragging me along with him "this is Kawaguchi [Name], we're working in partnership, so I thought you could bring her here without any problems."

"Did you rehearse that or did you just improvise?" I asked quietly, and he just ignored my comment, turning his gaze to the blond, who was now going up on the stone steps of the temple, looking at us curiously.

"It doesn't look too bad," shrugged the little blond, getting up from his seat and receiving multiple glances, "at least Emma will have someone to talk to."

Incomprehensible murmurs drifted through the air at the end of his speech. Soon afterwards, I was invited to stay under the care of said 'Emma' so that I wouldn't be in the middle of the gang members, something I accepted without objection. The girl was a little too friendly with someone had just met. Her questions were predominantly about my relationship with the leader of the second division, something that made me feel like a Shinjuku prostitute.

In the end, I managed to gather a lot of information about the relationship between gang members and their peers. I wrote it all down and then put my little notepad away.

"But come on," Emma snapped me out of my reverie, coming close to my ear, "are you going to tell me that you don't have even a little crush on him? Not a bit?"

"Not a bit" I clicked my tongue playfully, allowing myself to see the hypothesis in a comical way "I would never feel anything for a little lawbreaker. These relationships are a waste of time."

"How pessimistic," Emma replied with disappointment in her voice.

"Maybe so, but my thoughts led me to where I am today," I retorted indifferently.

"Well…" Emma paused silently, as if thinking through what she wanted to say, linking her arms behind her back and staring at the starry sky above "they're good people, believe me, even if it's not romantically, I still hope you'll change your mind about Mitsuya-kun."

"At this point, I think that's impossible," I replied, looking down at my own feet with a forced smile.

Soon, the meeting was over and the members were all saying goodbye to each other. I stood there for a few seconds, watching the crowd gather and chatting contentedly, wondering how these people got along so well when they were so different; while I was a little red dot standing out among my own kind.

I sighed, letting the thought fade away. I gathered my belongings and started down the temple stairs alone. I dialed the number on my cell phone, preparing to leave as discreetly as possible.

The cold touched my shoulders and knees, then I shivered, shivered with cold because my own body heat wouldn't generate enough to warm me up. I was startled when I reached the last step, and minutes of distraction later the cold was replaced by the warmth of a soft fabric, the temperature and smell were familiar, nostalgic, although I didn't recognize where from, but I remained frozen in the same place, in complete shock.

Someone was behind me.

"You have the worst habits, you'll end up dying of hypothermia."

The voice left me static and incredulous, sending me back to the past in less than a second as the air carried its lazy, rebellious sound to my freezing ears. I was breathless, wondering if it was a haunting making me question my sanity, which was no longer exactly stable.

After a while, I finally caught sight of a strand dyed yellow, which blended in with the black hair, and I was greeted by bright yellow eyes that stared back at me. Like the abyss that faces a man when stared at for too long.

"What are you doing here… [Name]-chan?"

"I could ask you the same thing, Hanemiya."

Ch 110: Random Thoughts

Ok, let's go...

ooooh, what a cool face, Tsukasa! ♡ You're so beautiful. Always so enchanting. Captivating boy! ✨

So he was referring to Akane after all.

Uh, strong words coming from Akane to say he will put Tsukasa to justice. Hmm. Nice.

How cheeky. How smug. So full of yourself, huh? ~ What a reallllly good mood you're in. Well, regarding the situation, you're so pleased. Almost getting to finish what you've been after for so long. ~ those who tell Tsukasa to follow their rules have it hard. Not remembering old No.3. lol

I'm done talking about his super speed and powerful SHARP hands. His hands are a weapon alone. OH!

He is wasting no time, right into business at full force. How admirable.

But seriously... the words... oh! He's been growing really smug since ch 91, 92 and now... woooh... one time playing with puzzle pieces and throwing them in the air all gracefully and the other Kaku's gears... this side of his... easy on me...! I get it everything is in the palm of your hand. I get it you're pleased you're almost at the finish line and enjoying your success on getting what you've been working hard and patiently on for long. BUT!! OH! ... even that Tsukasa art with the clock. oh. should I be calling you Mr. cool smug Tsu? ♡ it's impossible not to remember him! OH!

Uhhh... just thinking of Kou threatening little Tsukasa to get at him one day is sooooo funny at this point. You sure you can pull that off? lol

LOVE how this boy aged. From an innocent hum to a REALLY smug, fully in charge and capable one. UH! you want to go after Tsukasa after the scary 'hmm' face he showed you before and after what he did to you after showing it? Have to say you're brave. ~

Speaking of you, shouldn't you really be after someone else by now? If we were to assume Tsukasa hurt your friend, which is a big No-No to you, no one touches your dear friend and gets away with it, after what nat did, how will you react? Go at full force at him, kay? ~ Not to add, that's also the fake 'senpai' who used you in a really ugly way to get what he wants and left you with nothing before. Get a much called for 'revenge' on an ugly target. ~ Let me see you going. ~

You're still on the safe side. You still have time to reconsider, Kou. For your own sake. ^^

Here we go again...

Love how this boy changes from cheerful, playful, carefree… to being deadly serious and focused in like a split moment. He just keeps on switching between the 2 sides. A thing to admire about him. ~

Ahem, he is 'playing' with you Akane. ^^ seriously, he cut Akane's side with his pare hand and drew blood out of him, he crushes metal with them, punches a whole through metal or whatever... his HANDS! what are they made of?! even though I said I won't talk much about his hands.. here we are...

He is having fun. He is enjoying himself. Little smug foxie. ~

The amount of self confidence he has always impresses me. My goodness it's limitless… but this chapter is on another whole level. SO SMUG! I love that mood of his. oooooh SO COOL!!!

To go on and take out parts of Kaku to throw them at Akane. AHAHAHA Wha a cool move! ~ It's hilarious. What a reallllly good mood you're in. do you have a thing against kaku? you're treating him like ruins of the clock.

The punch he gave to Akane's chin, it reminded me of the one Hanako gave to Kou in the pilot. The twins share some moves. cool.

Later on he moved to give Akane a nice spin around, how fun! I hope Akane enjoyed the ride! twister no.4 seems to have given Tsu a fun idea during their chase lol Again, Akane's reaction. Same as the one Hanako made when Teru destroyed the ceiling of the far shore train. Hilarious. Hilarious.

One of Tsukasa's coolest signature moves!!!!! Hits with an iron fist!!!!!

Unbothered Tsuuuu!!!!!! unbudging Tsu!!!! Amazing Tsu!!!!!!

Wooh, I think I need to stop on Akane's words to give Kou some kind of credit.

His unbothered side! Hmm. Even though that happened when Tsukasa was letting his guard down and all... it still counts in a way. The only one to 'graze' almighty Tsukasa so far.

Hmm, wonder if Tsukasa wanted to, he could use Kokujoudai regardless of what Akane did, the one not to be really affected by Mirai's seal, rules in boundaries don't seem to apply to him, hmm...

Who is distracted Akane? Tsukasa wasted no time to go with his signature move while you weren't paying attention to him. He just switches between going easy to serious that's all.

And once more, another Tsukasa signature move. Smashing heads into things. The ground, table, wall..... he is still more gentle than No.6 on the head smashing regard.

It's again, funny, the guys going to call Tsukasa guilty and voice to want to bring him to justice were brought to justice by him on their very court table. One with Tsukasa stepping on it and punching a hole through his chest, the other getting crushed into it. woooh. Tsukasa shows no mercy I see. What a fun court. ~

Seriously, he gave Akane no room to prove himself. It was a one-sided fight. Was it a fight? Half of it Tsukasa was playing.........

Again, he is so fascinated by the insides of other things. Why not tell us what's on the inside of you, Tsukasa? We're fascinated by that, too. Come on. you want to show us that once you're destroyed? while I'm a sobbing mess? How can i see with my sight blurry? ........

Anyway, the insides of Akane is flesh, Tsukasa. So, it's a relief he survived your attack. didn't you notice the blood when you hit his side?

Having Akane freeing Mirai and asking her to run (both for her safety and because she holds the yorishiro, I assume he knows it's there. Even if he didn't before, it's just a fact at that point with Kaku down and him knowing it's not within him), then for her to throw herself in front of him to get the hit instead and protect him with a selfless act. They do care for each other after all. How sweet, despite Akane going they tricked him and he hates supernaturals. He seemed taken aback by what happened to her... falling to his knees checking on her closely maybe?

Even though I don't really care for either Kaku or Mirai so far, I like her gesture with Akane. It was nice to see.

Love how Tsukasa still kept his logo of 'gentle with girls' so far. He got her not on purpose, and the time they fought before too. Still, I assume if he failed with Akane, he will be going for her. Uh......... if that happened I was going to say goodbye to gentle with girls Tsukasa. It was nice to know you. haha.

So, I was thinking for a whole month before the chapter will I go counting triple kill on Tsukasa's list when the chapter is out? It's fun to get it. Even if none of them is really 'over'. I was also hoping to see Tsukasa bloody like the time with No.3, he looked cool back then. Uh, for that to happen it had to be Akane's or Teru's? blood... since the others are just made of gears. But of course, I wouldn't want for Akane to reach that point of being badly wounded... I would be satisfied with a small amount... like if the cut to his side left a bit on Tsukasa's hand... uh... I would pay to be in Hanako's, Nene's, Teru's place or the owls and watch Tsukasa in action and going -far shore No.6 mode but X1000 COOLER like they were doing. Ahahaha, their reactions were so fun. even Teru's was funny.

Turned out the yorishiro is...

Within Mirai like I guessed. ~

And some people go saying Tsukasa killes for fun. Yeah, once his purpose is done, he didn't walk back to Akane, despite his comment on wanting to know what's on the inside of him.

Still, Tsukasa didn't go with the pattern I mentioned. If he did... we wouldn't have had all that fight so... makes sense. and I would have said goodbye to that thing

And, Tsukasa finally got his hands on the yorishiro. Mission accomplished. A yorishiro holding another. No.7's holding No.1's. Amusing. Tsukasa. ~

Though, from all the things, it turned out to be a "key"? I'm so sensitive to that. Come on.

...

Hmm... what meaning could that hold?

I can't help but to go back to the time Tsukasa had Nene going back in time to get Amane's key. And, now we see him holding a key. Something feels fishy. What purpose might the 2? keys serve?

Why did he want Nene to get Amane's key? What purpose does it hold? At this stage with his plan on its final stogies shouldn't what he meant to do with making that happen come to play... with what he meant for Nene to do? What he meant for her to have? Does she still have the key with her at the moment? like... if she was brought back to normal, will it be there in her uniform pocket? Will we finally see it in use?

Hmm, I do wonder what all that Tea-party-Nene plan Tsukasa came with serves.

she seemed to help him together with her servant carry it. So? Did Tsukasa just come to them and told them "hey, we'll do this for a thing I want, nothing on your benefit." and the 2 just agreed? They were active parts of the plan. If it doesn't serve them, if it doesn't mean anything to them, if it even stands in her way if what Nene is supposed to do will turn out to be an obstacle in her way, would she have agreed to help and make her servant help? That feels so unlikely for a supposedly 'careful' evil person as her. What did they want out of that, too?

Did she just go with "it will be my chance to get the naive girl's trust so I can manipulate her easily all I want later on? Sending her servant with her to be her guide and lead her in the nowhere, and maybe to get something out of it... what did it hold?

Was she oblivious to Tsukasa's purpose out of that deal and just carried out with it for her to get the Nene trust thing and for nat to achieve something maybe? .........

Were the 3 working together or did they have goals of their own in there? Are they opposing to the point what Tsukasa wants might step in her and servant's way? Hmmmmmmmmmm..............

Everything in the tea party arc is questionable at this point. Everything in it is just tricky, full of lies, ACTING.

Generally,

What kind of 'trust' do they have in each other? What a 'trio'. Funny. Really funny.

How NOT to be a trio. Hahaha, they aren't together at all. Never have been. ~

Hmm... having this...

What do these smirks hold behind them? What is he after? What are they (SHE) after? Ha, she is even dancing and waving her dress around in there, what is it that really pleasing thing she can't wait to get?

In No.6's case I think it was her want to get rid of Sumire together with setting the stage of getting rid of Tsukasa, too. Someone doesn't seem to have a whole lot of patience. Now, she wants No.1, No.7, No.3 out of the way in one go. How funny. How funny. This rush storm inside of you doesn't show on your face little thing. ~

Uhhhh, what a fake you are. ~ Hmm... even that whole show of "I can't disobey him" you put, is it for real? ~ you've been going your way since the very start and until now. ~ what a thing you are. ~

I wonder... can snakes have the color green? ~

A 'careful' thing like her needs to really be as careful when facing Tsukasa. ~ He is not one to mess with easily. I hope she gets that with her 'he can't see me' or 'things are over now. a "betrayal" is so easy.' ~

Tsukasa dear, you happened to comment on being proud of seeing her going her way back in No.6's case. Do you, also, feel the same way on the other cases? Like now for example? What a magical being you are. ~

He asked her about if she is happy with hurting others and she responded yes, her actions right after that chapter with Nene, Sumire-No.6, this arc with the whole school and Mit 2.0. Clearly she is more than happy. She is going at full force. What a thing. ~ What a thing. ~

Snakes and cats... hmm... has to be the cat to outshine at the end, huh? I just can't wait to see how her deal with Tsukasa will come to an end, especially with little koku being in the mix. I'm so sorry I committed a crime on your side in the past, Tsukasa. I hope you can forgive me.

Seriously, the 4 are funny now. a cat, a green snake, a dog and a puppy. Let me take the cat and puppy and take my leave. ~

Ok, enough of that. Lots of other things to focus on. With the 2 going their (her) way.

So, her dog can wonder around, is it because of her lame gift or because he is special? Not that I care. Nor that I care for his show off in ch 92 or even him in the cover of vol 19. so booooooring.

Uhh, so Nagisa and Tiara are frozen, huh?

That's senpai to you. Who would care to call you that? What a waste. Out of the rare times I wished Mit 2.0 will go with his "you're lame attitude" regarding him and the gift, I didn't get it.

Ok, so he doesn't use his blood ability unless it's really needed as he voiced out before, because it's it makes him feel gross. You already are with or without it, don't be so sad. ~

His speech to Mit 2.0, I wonder if they made that clear to him before or not? From his reaction he feels oblivious to the whole deal. If that was the case, then scolding him like that when you didn't tell him a thing is called hypocrisy, you so lame so UNcool hypocrite.

Ok, so he wouldn't do that to Mit 2.0 without a clear purpose. Is it to force him to create a yorishiro so they can destroy next by putting him in a life threatening situation?

Still gross, considering they only want to destroy it, regardless. Forcing Mit 2.0 to have a thing to care about more than anything, only to destroy it. Meaning they use him like some kind of toy from start to end. They will keep it around until its deal is done to them just to throw it away when it's over. Oh.... wait a sec... a toy...?

Yep, go at the right person at full force, Kou. Go ahead and show me what the whole of "my purpose" speech you gave while looking at Mit's photos mean. Show me where you stand now.

Mit 2.0, I really don't get him or Kou or their deal. At a moment he is all "I gave up, end me" then the other "ok, let's go to the festival"....... both forgot the main issue, the main problem, Mit 2.0's unstable existence. A part of what Mit 2.0/they reached now lies within his/ their ignorance of the situation they are in. So, despite nat's speech being trash, it have a bit of truth within it. Mit 2.0 and Kou could have done better if they just gave things what they are worth, instead of leaving them for who knows when.

So now, Mit 2.0 is in a real 'dying' situation. That will really show his real desire, and prove if his want to "be gone" is really that strong or not. A chance to be gone came to you, Mit 2.0.. will you accept it or resist it? Or will you go "if I'm gone, I want Kou to finish me" like you told him before? Will you end up creating a yorishiro at that point? What might it be? A thing to be your living line and at the same time so precious to you?

As Mit 2.0 peeked into all of his "old self" memories using his mirrors, a thing to be important to his old self, together with him, it's a picture of Kou, might end up becoming his yorishiro? It's in Kou's house though... if we needed a thing within the school, maybe even No.3's boundary... Hmm...

Again, it holds a meaning for both him and his "old self". Kou gave it to him and he held into it thinking of the hell of a time I went with reviewing the chapter, it keeps on showing in his arms then disappearing at a later shot repeatedly!. A moon rock, scissors, skitch book... it holds a potential of having this " 'first' precious gift" in it. The Penguin chain sadly got destroyed so... can it be repaired if he wanted? hmm...

Can it become Kou's lame traffic earing? For fun, both Mit kept commenting on it, it's from Kou, they called him referring to it, old Mit died in a car accident, we got an event of Kou gifting him a traffic earing... and were told in an early chapter it's something 'improtant' to Kou. Imagine that one will be the case. It'll be so funny.

I'm left with these options, I don't really think Mit 2.0 is capable of creating a human yorishiro (make Kou his yorishiro), that seems to be one specific task with specific circumstances I see Mit 2.0 to lack.

Now, thinking of old No.3's yorishiro that's still there. Do we need it or is it just worthless and forgettable like its owner? Seriously, the only character in this story to lack everything including an "existence" is that bird.

Hmm, looking back at Tsukasa's deal with making Mit 2.0 No.3... his speech all along was only directed to that, it's Hanako who went for the "old" yorsirho. .......

From what we heard from nat, it doesn't connect to Mit 2.0 at all.

Uhhh, thinking about Tsukasa making Mit 2.0 and making him stay by making him No.3 and then feeding him so he can keep regenerating, after that Tsukasa? What did you have in mind to do after that? You told him he can become human, he can have his wish, he's kept on living on that hope until his life became hell and jsut wanted to be gone, then kept going once more, you don't lie, right? How do you plan to grant his wish? Take responsibility, Tsukasa. He is not a toy you made to be played with by others. He is a being with feelings, wants and wishes. Either be as responsible to grant his wish, or I don't know.. try to do anything for him for him to reach a stable piece of mind and being. you can't leave him at the middle of the road. I'm sure you won't leave any of your work undone.

So, once Mit 2.0 is a full mystery will he take a new 'complete' form? not that I hold a thing against it but I feel his design in there is a symbolism of many things. some might be Tsukasa codded, even when his yorishiro is destroyed, he'll just lose authority over the boundary... would that mean he is a step toward becoming "human"? From what was said, it seems so. Uh, I see all that thing in lots of ways, one of Mit 2.0 might end up just accepting what he is, now having a stable existence, and give up on that wish. Why did he want to become human to begin with? If he can have that in his life already, is there a need for him to become "human" anymore?

On Tsukasa's side of the wish thing, having Mit crossing to become a full mystery, if we assumed he still wanted to be human, maybe once all Yorishiros are destroyed, if what she said is true..... looking at it in another way than all will be gone... if we reduced this all to the "lines" between life and death... if we assumed the world will be rewritten so the living, the dead (ghosts), supernaturals are equal and can live together... that means Mit 2.0's wish is granted along the way? He can have the life he wants without necessarily becoming human. Is that what he has in mind?

Also, if what she said is really going to happen, will Tsukasa be as pleased to go with it? I mean he goes about the rules, not the beings. It's like he is after rewriting the rules of the world to create and new one where all can be free to be whatever they want, not to blow away everything. How would that be possible with him wanting to grant Amane's wish? In saving Nene's life? And living a real life with her? what wish could he have while gone?

Uh, the whole Nene will die once the yorishiros are destroyed deal too... it feels like once he is gone, she is gone too. 2 in 1. brace yourself Amane. The DOUBLE PIAN you'll get if that were to happen! Boy............. we're similar huh

I mean from what we got so far, Tsukasa doesn't care for his own being, but Nene's life is a part of the deal. A part of Amane's wish. We need to change her fate, don't we? You going this way is clearly the wrong path, Tsukasa. Unless........ you have other things in mind. Regarding Nene's life and the world (maybe even your complicated situation). Things Amane, her and us are oblivious to. I trust you.

You're just playing with our minds and feelings, dear. But I can go with 'wait and see'. Amaze me. ♡

Ok, moving on...

The face of "it's over". ♡ Thanks for all you hard work so far. KEEP it up. *coughing* to hear... Tsukasa referring to himself as "Amane's" yorishiro for the first time ever... uh....

Unlike the time he talked with her... there is a whole 180 between her and Amane's reaction. See who cares for you, dear Tsu. Even when you want to be gone, there are people? not to care and use your want as an easy to achieve step in their happiness plan, and there are people! who can't live without you, ready to pin you down, keep a strong hold around you so you won't leave, you precious boy!

Don't go I want to be gone based on fake illusions in your head. Please realize how much worthy you are. Please unleash this want to stay with Amane you have deep down within you. Please... Amane.... I'm begging you to prove to this boy how irreplicable and precious he is. How your world is just dull without him there. Please Tsukasa... this time get it. Understand him, please.

Nene, please help them both get over this miscommunication issue they have! Help them understand each other! Be the hand to bring them together!

I can't with that...... I just can't.....

Hmm... now.. what am I supposed to get from his talk? Mit 2.0 will make a yorishiro? Won't and that leaves us with No.1's and him? Is he on board with what the 2 went to do with Mit 2.0? ...

It seems they want the 7 yorishiros gone, not only 6. And, it looks like he knows that, too. Hmm...

Well, yes, she said 7. They need to forse Mit 2.0 to make one. It's clear now.

Uhh, now I started to see Tsukasa this arc, no in the entire story as someone trying to live the moment to its fullest before he says his last goodbye. When little, before he got killed, and now... he wanted to do something special before he is gone for good, change Amane's life for the better, give him happiness. A thing to remember him 'foundly' with maybe? Having him wanting to end things with his own hands this arc...... with the last yorishiro.... Amane... Nene... all he did along the way from the very start till now.....

How could he be that good of an actor... or so collected let's say... shows nothing on him... in their birthday before he left... the time he spent after he came back waiting to be killed (not sure about his last year though) ... now... he plays and signs and... oh... how are you doing on the inside, Tsukasa?

If I went please don't leave Tsukasa, will you grant that wish for me?

Teru's internal monologue,

Poor Nene, looking at Akane, keepers having a hard time.

Hmm... I don't get him. At the start of the story he kept on going on how much the 7 mysteries are evil and dangerous, then kept going after evil Hanako, and then... he tells Akane they are needed to 'support' the school and they will be needing No.1 to stand up for 'Tsukasa' turned out Amane took his leave at the end or...? , looking forward to see No.1 really in real action. Having him voicing if the Yorishiros are gone the land? I assume the one of the school will fall down... kinda reminds me of vol. 19's cover... would that be what happens?

The pillars he had at mind almost took the shape of those surrounding the hole in No.6's boundary under the school as I recall it, would it be like... the core of the destruction to come? The hole that links to the far shore as I recall it? Hmm... can we see No.6 in action once more? maybe even all the 7 in one place when that time comes? each pillar looks like this one in Sumire's... uh... sacred shrines... sacrifices... yorishiros... unseating pits of powers to return to an original form of theirs... what a huge thing...

With Nene's supposed 'sealed' fate this thing is doomed to happen......

Speaking of that, how did Teru know Nene's life span and death is directly linked to the yorishiros? Hmm...

The Minamotos have lots of things under their sleeves. while he was talking in depth about No.1, he didn't seem to know much about Tsukasa's position and not to pay attention to her being mentioned before… hmm…

Following the origin of the school, was it built on that same land Sumire's village lies on?

It seems… that land… the red house… school… are all linked.

I mean, we have No.6's boundary being under the school, the hole there that he used to sacrifice Aoi once she fell into it can be linked to that original cliff, having the same thing of: Supernaturals are coming in and attacking the place, let's sacrifice a girl to stop that agenda in Sumire's village, the same thing happened in the school, therefore had No.6 who is an "expert" in dealing with that, used the same agenda. We dealt with the situation the same way. Had the severance happening, similar to the thing in the village, again, with supernaturals stopping coming out for a while. The mess happened out of having almost half of the yorishros gone, the protectors to keep the land safe from that happening.

We see the supernaturals coming from that hole, in No.6's boundary in general, also there in the red house, which is directly linked to the kannagi place.

A 'sealed' well near the 'red house' and Teru saying there is water and all under it… having it connecting to the far shore.

It makes since we're in the same place, land and all.

Having that nat saying to Kou "This guy's been a real thorn in our side. He is been stopping just about every single supernatural that tries to make it to the mortal world... before they even get the chance to wreak havoc there."

Hmm, feels legit connecting it to his old rule, that he still takes on himself as No.6, taking care of the hole/cliff and its supernaturals crossing in.

Hmm, now maybe his disappearance makes sense? He did his last job, got over his duty... he is free to go wherever.

Since he is told the whole system is not needed anymore to protect the mortal world, his rule is over... he'll do just that.

So yes, the school seven mystries - yorishrio system, Sumire's village system... are 2 sides of the same coin, deal with the same thing. One just evolved from the other.

After all, that makes sense why the school is full of supernaturals and all, Mit, etc end up within it.

Ok...

Talking about the keepers...

Could their uselessness come from the destruction of their clock as he put it before lol? Could it be that they don't care to defend their yorishiro or if it's destroyed? Could it be they can't use their time power for some reason? And that feels to not be it for the most part, since Mirai used her time power on Tsukasa and it didn't work, Kaku was taken by surprise and was down, Akane couldn't even turn his head around, the moment he did he was done. Tsukasa is not an opponent to be underestimated.

Their time power seems to take a little time for them to activate once they decide to used, even.

Could they hold up before his speed even for a few seconds just enough for them to activate it? Did they fight knowing it's a lost call? I mean he showed to be faster than the 3 of them to react.

Talking a little more about it,

With Mirai's case, she promised to move his time until he is 'dust', if she had succeeded, that will give a whole different story from how the situation developed. was Amane sure nothing will happen to Tsukasa so he didn't step in? Feels so. He wasn't scared Tsukasa will get it hard once he called his name, it's the opposite. He didn't make a move until Tsukasa said that "me" of his.

Thing is, when Mirai moved Tsukasa's time, did she really touch only the handcuffs and moved their time only or was it something else that its time moved? Hmm... when she moves the time of a 'being' no matter what she touches on them, it will be their time that will move together with these things. With Nene, with Kou he grew up completely in appearance, powers, not only his clothes. Tsukasa... assuming she only touched the handcuffs, they should be the only thing to age but...

Oh? now I see why she is shocked and why he only smirked. Missing with a being of 'his own time' are we? Hmm, it's amazing how there seemed to a somewhat of explosion, a huge flow of power to feel "reflected" once she tried moving his time. Unlike any other case she moved time forward within before, even with Kou it was a small smoke cloud nothing much.

The mystery of the red house... the thing of its own time, own space, own rules, connected to the kannagi place... it was hilarious how Nene came out of one on the taps

Hmm... what's on the inside of you, Tsukasa-kun?

Anyway, so Mirai's power of moving time don't work on him, Akane's of stopping time don't feel to work, the clock didn't affect him how about Akane, and Kaku... if he turned back time without Tsukasa noticing any moment that would feel to work somehow.

Are the keepers just trying to go with the flow so they will "observe", see how things will play out before Kaku finally turns back time so then they can finally get serious? Knowing how things ordinally developed? That feels smart.

Thing is... turning time don't erase the memories of those powerful supernaturals so... Tsukasa will also remember how things went and time was brought back...

Hmm......

... what do the keepers have in mind? It would feel only legit they have something they are plotting.

A thing of wait and see...

Would what Teru mentioned to Akane about Kou come to play soon?

We're dealing a lot with 'time' this arc.

And finally...

Mr. ^_^.

Recalling it, Tsukasa... she never agreed to anything let alone promised anything, you came up with the game and didn't let her even finish her line of "I didn't agree to th-". ^^

Ok... that moment....

...

Uh, have to say it feels cute how Tsukasa was going on a rampage up until it's Amane he's facing. He is just too gentle and "Amane?" ... oh...

And, sure enough, they are back in position, with the knife. What a complete setting.

Seriously, Tsukasa... he loves going and leaving him behind. Yeah, Amane... you have to pin him down to the ground and keep him in place. Nail him with a knife, take a tight grip of his hands, make sure he doesn't escape. Go ahead and be as selfish to even keep him locked in your boundary like a prisoner. Keep a ring around his ankle so he doesn't go far away. If you don't do this, he will keep disappearing because of some illusions in his head.

Uh, just thinking how the rooftop scene summarizes the twins' deal, with Tsukasa being gone for some time, reappearing back suddenly in Amane's life, then after sometime leaves him behind. "See you later". What a game, Tsukasa. Now I see why he pinned Nene down. "Stop leaving me behind. That's enough already. I can't take anymore." Then... the way he ended up against the door, or even the time Akane gave him a speech about what he did... Tsukasa had him hard with his act of "disappearing" to leave him all alone and broken, regardless of how hard he tries to prevent it from happening. ........

"Without you, the world is empty, meaningless. It's just hell."

Take turns. How does it feel? not that I think you didn't take her turn in your past. but still made the decision anyway despite you getting the feeling of being left behind. Just thinking she will forget someday and find happiness in other things. and then got angry at her for doing just the same as you did in your past. Tsukasa's comment was needed, you did the same as her, you gave up on your future and life to supposedly stay with me regardless of me agreeing or not. Even if I wanted you to keep living and chase your dreams and have a future. why can't she do the same as you did. too? you won't accept her noble sacrifice? You're unfair. Amane. You just go with things your way. So selfish. Tsukasa, sorry but... in your case this time I want him to be as selfish. Hold you down and prevent you from sacrificing yourself. Maybe the same also goes for the other one in your past.

Uh, to think that he went to try his best to voice his feelings out to Tsukasa yet all he got was a "so?" ........... 💢

Tsukasa doesn't get his feelings, doesn't want to be saved........

The time Hanako saved him together with Nene, Tsukasa asked about it. Mr. can't talk gave a cold answer, to receive a cold "so" later. Ehhh, who started the mess...

"You were there, too. So might as well save you." - "I won't be able to save you." now imagine how much effort it took him to voice that out after he failed the other time. and Tsukasa... not any of Amane's tries to 'save' you reached you....

??????????

Explain yourself, Amane.

In connection to the 3-loop...

It's twisted how this "what about what a person wants" plays with Tsukasa.

The first time he left Amane without "asking him what he wants", he assumed hearing Amane's speech that's his want/wish and tried making it come true for him. Amane didn't include him in there, so if he is gone it's fine, Amane is happy. In a way, that felt like what Amane wants (unlike Nene who Amane was sure not to want him to 'save' her the way he went).

Then, when 12... I assume influenced by Kou's speech, he made sure to ask Amane to voice what he wants. To choose if he wanted him to stay or disappear. But, Amane stayed silent it seems, making Tsukasa take action. Who knows, maybe once again Amane's lack of answer had him assuming he is "whatever" just like he got when little. He doesn't need him there to be happy. Him coming back home brought Amane misfortune, so he is better off without him. His unworthy little brother. He can be happy having his dreams and future without any care for him, after all... isn't that the reason Tsukasa sacrificed himself in the first place? Until Amane gave up on all that, did what he did so they can be together. Was that what Tsukasa wanted at that point? Or did he want the opposite for Amane? He wanted him to live? Amane went and decided for them both how they will end either way. Uh. Regardless, now it feels Tsukasa at least appropriates Amane's efforts in there? At least he doesn't show to be offended by what happened, he shows to love it? Even when he doesn't understand the message? I don't really follow him there. Maybe it's the fact of he saw Amane not holding back in general and that had him pleased. It's a logo of his. And, he accepted whatever Amane decided with open arms.

And now, it's the same. Tsukasa went with "that's what you want".

He makes decisions based on a "part" of what Amane wants. But, what he really wants is there inside of him. He needs to voice it out for Tsukasa to finally understand it.

Amane tried explaining he doesn't want a wish if it meant he'll disappear... but was met with a "so?" his feelings not reaching his little brother. It seems Tsukasa is still stuck in here... and just had a lag, can't move past that.

So, Tsukasa needs him to say it clearly. "I love you. I don't want you to disappear. I want you to say by my side."

If Amane did... would he reconsider....?

Will Amane's feelings finally reach him? Will they get past their miscommunication issue? Will they finally start to understand each other a little?

Hmm... from what does Amane really want to save Tsukasa??? What does he have in mind??? If I were to tell him to take a first step in saving him, it would be to start with Tsukasa himself, save him from himself, save him from the illusions inside his head, save him from his self-doubt, worth issues that come from within him. Then, move on to the surroundings.

Why can't Tsukasa really see your love or understand any of your efforts? A part lies within your lack of putting your feelings into words and maybe also, it comes from deep within Tsukasa himself. He is so self-defeated, fast to give up on himself, he doesn't see how amazing or precious he his. He is fast to see himself in the wrong image. Which is so saaaaad. How is he supposed to believe someone really loves him? For what? You love worthless me? Can't be. Why? If anything, you must be in love with a false image you made of me. I'm not how you see me. You care for me because you're my older brother. It's a given. It's like a duty. You care for little brother. Do you care for 'Tsukasa'?

I see before Tsukasa gets to understand the love of anyone else, he needs to love himself first. How are you supposed to see the love of others when you lack self-love? When you're full of self-doubts?

Save him from that, Amane.

Before you ask even though he doesn't really, he is that selfless. if Amane hates him it's fine what matters is that he loves him and ready to do anything for him and his wishes and happiness for anyone's love, you need to start with loving yourself, accept yourself. Do you do, Tsukasa? If you don't, how is it possible for you to see, accept other's love or even understand it?

Before Hanako or even Nene try to help you, the change starts from within you. Start with changing the way you see yourself and feel about things, so you can move a step forward. Otherwise you'll keep stuck in the same place.

How do you see yourself Tsukasa? How do you feel about yourself? Please show me.

Goodness, doesn't this issue exist within both twins? Amane, too... struggles with accepting love and has self-respect issues. Both of them need help. Both need to be saved. Nene, too... at times... anyone to love me is fine..... I just want to feel loved......... ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......

Their story is just tragic. One sees himself as really unwanted by whoever, not important in his twin's life and he is happy without him, even if he wanted to be with him he lacks the courage to do so, seeing he won't do right by his side, therefore keeps going with 'disappearing' from his life not finding the reason to stay anyway, can't get any signal his twin sends him to show the opposite, he wants to hear him tell his feelings, what he really wants, while the other struggles with that specific thing. Both are suffering. The one who rejects and the one who is rejected.

Tsukasa is miserable, Amane is miserable. Both are miserable. How many tears will they have me shed until they are happy?

One insists on leaving, the other tries with all his might to keep him in place.

Uhhh... how does it feel trying with all your might to have your moon not to disappear beyond the clouds so you can see him always?

Your beautiful unreachable moon... a thing to gaze at the grace of from afar, try so hard to catch. Make it all your. Your purpose. Steal the moon, Amane. Never let it go. You can do it.

How does it feel for you to be looking at your most precious moon in the eye, only to tell him I hate you. Oh...

A "I hate you" that holds I hate how you always go this way, how you're so fast to decide to give up on yourself, on us, disappear from my life to fill it with darkness and shatter my heart then come back to it to give it a light of hope and give my aching heat a chance of healing by having you close, then try to leave me again and again. It's painful to be left behind over and over again. I can't keep living with that. No matter how hard I try to keep you with me you insist on leaving, my feelings can't reach you no matter what I do. You keep rejecting all my efforts, refuse to understand my feelings. I don't get you. Stupid Tsukasa. You're so unfair. This side of yours, the way you decide things in this matter, this repetitive attitude of yours. I hate it so much. I don't want to play this game of hide and seek any longer. I hate it.

- let's play together like we used to? You said?

I don't want to play that kind of game. I'm sick of it.

If you love me, stop disappearing and leaving me behind. I don't want that. I love you, that's why I want to be with you. I want you here, with me. Always. Forever and ever.

How can Tsukasa see and understand Mitsuba's wish, his deal with Kou, if you're alike you can stay together forever, that's just a copy paste from his and Amane's, but can't understand theirs? Tsukasa.........

Why not shout all these out loud Amane? Might help you both.

He believes with the path he is taking, he is doing the right thing for your sake. Prove the opposite to him so finally we can have the 2 of you shine together.

All there is between you is pure love. Give it the chance to come out and see the light of day. Starting with gentle words coming out from deep down your hearts.

With the right amount of courage, determination, it will shine brighter the stars in the sky one day.

.

.

.

The twins. They are a lot. One powerful force.

May they reach their happy solvation.

What a chapter...

As per usual, I might be adding more stuff later.

Thanks for reading.

[dark-elf-writes]

Byakuran shows up at the end of Tsuna’s classes the next day with a drink and pastry in hand (recommended by Uni) and a determined smile

If Byakuran were anyone else he would be infuriated at how each and every one of his attempts to woo Tsuna are somehow misconstrued into them just being close friends (Shoichi claimed Tsuna was shy and didn’t have many friends before college. Uni said that he wouldn’t recognize a romantic gesture if it came with big neon lights and fireworks.) but each warm smile and sweet blush when Tsuna greeted him felt like a blessing. Byakuran had always loved puzzles, had always loved taking things apart and seeing what made them tick, had always loved a challenge to direct his mind towards, and Tsunayoshi Sawada was the ultimate challenge.

Their second meeting had been outside Tsuna’s last class the next day with all of his favorites at Uni’s suggestion. Tsuna had blinked as if surprised to see him, but that confusion had melted into a smile when Byakuran pressed the cup into his hand.

“A thank you. One pick me up for another, Tsu-chan!”

Tsuna had laughed, sweet so sweet. An angel walking amongst men in an orange hoodie and worn jeans. “You look like you’re in a better mood today.”

“How can I not be? I’m with you!”

Byakuran knew he had master the art of a smile. That he could make it mean anything from a kind gesture to a threat of unimaginably violence. This smile was something softer something genuine. Something full of warmth and promise.

It felt like victory when he saw the blush on Tsuna’s cheeks crawling its way down his pretty pale throat. Byakuran wondered what it tasted like.

“Uni said you were nice.”

He doubted ‘nice’ was the word she had used, but that she had spoken to her cousin about him at all and it hadn’t sent Tsuna running for the hills had to mean she approved of Byakuran’s interest at least. Fortunate. Going around her would be… annoying to say the least.

“For you, Tsu-chan? Always.”

Tsuna’s blush darkened a touch more, but he smiled. “Do you want to come to the library with me to study? I normally meet up with Uni there and… since we’re all friends now.”

Friends. He wanted to be far more than friends with the sweet angel looking up wall at him with those impossibly big brown eyes, but he had to go slow. Tsuna was too skittish for him to make an obvious move now. There would be time later. All the time in the world once Tsuna had agreed to give him a chance. Byakuran just had to be patient.

“I’d love to come with!“

The time would come, and until then Byakuran would have fun with his new challenge.

[fatasticfeedernurse]

Aww how cute toga made sure her friends match her heart clogging style~

"Fufufu~ But of course! I couldnt just keep all the fun for myself! Right girls?~"

"P-Ple ...*mmphh*... pleeaahsheeh ...*urrrPPhhh*... ii c-caant'sh ...*slosh*... aanymooree.."

"t-tooooh ...*gnash*... muuhch .... ... c-cheesht'sh ...*chomp*... tooooh ...*rrrRPPPphh*... ...*squish*... tiihght!" "Such drama queens~ They are just over reacting~"

"M-Mgh~blurrrRPPP ~h!!!" "M-Mgh~blurrrRPPP ~h!!!"

"Or maybe not, Tee-hee~"

[bigsoftmarshmallow]

I can't help but wonder how the DorfMisers would react to reading the Amimal Farm by George Orwell... Or Sun Tsu's Art of War...

The Art of War would be interesting especially, because he once said that "An evil enemy will burn down his own nation... simply so that he may rule over the ashes." And I think he's partially right.

I think they are evil if they do so intentionally, but if it's unintentional, then they are simply foolish with severe myopia.

I have read neither of those books, I don't think. I've heard of them, however. We shall make the Demon King sit and read some books!

************************************************************************

The Ganondorfs and Demise would each have uniquely sharp insights into both Animal Farm by George Orwell and The Art of War by Sun Tzu, finding each work fascinating and relevant to their own experiences as rulers, warriors, and symbols of power. The strategic cunning in The Art of War would particularly resonate with them, while Animal Farm would likely provoke their contempt for human (or Hylian) naivety—and perhaps even fuel their motivations.

Wind Waker Ganondorf

Reading Animal Farm, Wind Waker Ganondorf would be absorbed, reflecting on his past ambitions and how power can so easily corrupt, yet he'd also find the characters' eventual submission to authoritarian rule contemptible.

“These creatures are complacent fools, content with chains if they can call it peace.” He’d view the manipulative leaders like Napoleon as lesser beings compared to himself, but he’d acknowledge the power of manipulating belief systems to shape a society’s future—a technique he’d always valued.

With The Art of War, he’d be enthralled, valuing Sun Tzu’s insights on tactics, patience, and forethought. “War is an art, not a brute display of force,” he’d mutter approvingly. The phrase you mentioned about burning a nation to rule the ashes would particularly resonate with him, aligning with his disdain for such leaders, whom he’d consider beneath him. Ganondorf believes that if ruin is a means to power, it should be intentional, well-planned, and carefully contained—never wasteful.

Ocarina of Time Ganondorf

Animal Farm would rile up Ocarina of Time Ganondorf’s frustrations with the Hylians he once sought to rule, seeing their flaws reflected in Orwell's tale.

He’d scoff at the animals’ passivity, muttering, “They trade one tyrant for another, believing they’re free. Fools.” Yet, he’d find the themes of power and corruption deeply validating, as he considers himself the rare exception who sees through deception and wouldn’t be misled by those “squealing for peace and unity.”

In contrast, The Art of War would hold profound appeal to him as a tactician. “Know thyself, know thy enemy,” he’d murmur, seeing this as a reminder of his approach toward Link and Hyrule. Sun Tzu’s caution against rash action and the value of understanding the battlefield and oneself would align with his ambitions of long-term conquest, where every decision is calculated. The lesson on burning a nation simply to rule over ashes would strike him deeply, reinforcing his belief that power must be wisely maintained or else risk leading to ruin.

Twilight Princess Ganondorf

Twilight Princess Ganondorf would study Animal Farm and recognize the weaknesses in systems driven by a lack of unity and purpose, which he’d scorn.

“They seek liberation yet walk into a trap of their own making,” he’d mutter, a dark smile on his face. For him, the story underscores how easily societies can fall to manipulation and division—a weakness he would exploit in his own ambitions without hesitation. He’d appreciate Orwell’s insight into political manipulation, as he considers himself a master of inspiring loyalty when needed, while holding absolute control.

With The Art of War, he would be especially fascinated, as the philosophy matches his patient approach to power. He’d hold a grudging respect for Sun Tzu, acknowledging that “A ruler who recklessly sacrifices his kingdom is no king, but a fool.” Twilight Princess Ganondorf would be especially drawn to strategies of psychological warfare, viewing his patience and strategic acumen as traits befitting a true conqueror.

Hyrule Warriors Ganondorf

Hyrule Warriors Ganondorf would likely dismiss Animal Farm as a display of weak-willed characters, finding amusement in their lack of willpower.

“They bring ruin upon themselves, and blame the strong,” he’d comment, scoffing. Yet he’d also see this as an affirmation of his own methods, believing that only the strong should rule. He’d take pleasure in the irony of the animals’ descent into oppression, which he’d see as an example of why those who crave power should be prepared to pay its full price.

In contrast, The Art of War would fascinate him. He’d particularly appreciate Sun Tzu’s insights into the strategic application of strength and deception. The notion that “an evil enemy will burn down his own nation” would strike a chord, though he’d add that such acts are foolish unless they serve a greater, controlled purpose. “Destruction for power’s sake alone is pointless, but destruction harnessed to incite loyalty, fear, and control is effective.” He’d find the ideas validating, admiring the balance of calculated might and wisdom.

Tears of the Kingdom Ganondorf

Tears of the Kingdom Ganondorf would likely find Animal Farm an insightful study in the limits of groupthink and the vulnerability of societies to manipulation. He’d note the tragic cycle of those who rise to power only to become as corrupt as their predecessors.

“Such is the nature of those who have not known true struggle or discipline,” he’d remark, finding the animals’ passive acceptance pitiful. He’d recognize Orwell’s critique as applicable to many leaders he’s seen fall, those who sought power but became weak with it, transforming into the very force they once despised.

The Art of War, however, would speak to him deeply. He would respect Sun Tzu’s emphasis on calculated warfare and cunning, seeing it as validating his own approach to power and conquest. “Destruction without purpose is waste. Power demands vision beyond the battlefield.” For him, Sun Tzu’s guidance aligns perfectly with his own goals of establishing lasting power rather than ephemeral conquests that leave only ashes behind.

Demise

Demise would read Animal Farm and immediately scoff at the weakness portrayed. The naivety of the animals would only prove to him the inherent frailty of most beings, confirming his disdain for anything but raw power.

“Their downfall is written from the beginning,” he’d growl. To him, Orwell’s story would serve only as a lesson that ideals and promises are irrelevant next to power. The animals’ descent into oppression would amuse him, reinforcing his belief that the strong are destined to rule.

The Art of War, on the other hand, would spark his respect for Sun Tzu’s clear understanding of power and discipline. Demise would see himself as above the need for “tricks” but would still admire the emphasis on decisiveness and knowledge. The phrase about an enemy burning his own land simply for the power to rule would resonate with him, though he’d dismiss it with contempt: “A true king requires no ruin to hold power, only fear.” Sun Tzu’s strategic wisdom would intrigue him, offering him insights he could align with his own thirst for dominance without compromise.

Across the board, The Art of War would inspire each Ganondorf and Demise to refine their own philosophies on power, viewing Sun Tzu’s strategies as a foundation for more efficient conquest. Animal Farm would serve as a reminder of the flaws and corruptibility in the hearts of the “weak,” which they might view as reinforcing their own methods and beliefs.

Due to me hyper fixating on Batman (specifically the Rogues) for the time being (I also wanted to try something new…)

But please don’t worry— I still love Dragon Ball, and my OC Tsu-Chi!!

The only Dragon Ball thing I’m gonna focus on is the Bardock What-If because it still means a lot to me…

Thank you for being patient!

Okay I love you bye-bye 👋🏻

The End of part 1

The sponsor Christmas party

Atsumu just got off the phone with Kuroo who was telling him he will be hosting a sponsored Christmas party at his and Kenma's house and all the MSBY are going to be there so atsumu just told the same message back to sho

Atsumu:Honey bee we have to go to Kuroo’s and Kenma's they are hosting a sponsored party

The end of part 2

"Footprints of Love: A Journey with Triplets"

Sho’s pov

This is our first Christmas was a proper family not just that it was the kids first Christmas but somehow that day went by so fast and we are already in to new year We spent all of our time with the kids and family and by family it was basically me Atsumu and his twin Osamu and his other half suna and their kids we literally had a full house a mad house But we wouldn’t have had it any other way. The three of us, Atsumu, Osamu, and I, couldn't be happier with our beautiful children, Hina, Miku, and Yuki. Being parents to triplets was no easy task, but it was the best thing that had ever happened to us.

As the new year approached, we found ourselves reflecting on the whirlwind that was the past year. It felt like just yesterday when we first held our little bundles of joy in our arms. They were now one year old, already growing and learning so fast.

December had been a particularly special month for us. Not only was it the first Christmas for our kids, but it was also the first time we experienced being a proper family. With the house filled with laughter, joy, and the sound of tiny feet running around, we felt like our dreams had come true.

On Christmas morning, we woke up to the excited cries and giggles of our little ones, who were falling in love with the colorful lights and festive decorations around the house. Atsumu and I couldn't help but smile as we watched Hina, Miku, and Yuki open their presents with sheer delight.

The day seemed to fly by, filled with laughter, love, and the warmth of our family. Atsumu's twin, Osamu, and his partner Suna, along with their own children, joined us for the festivities. The house was bustling with activity, a true madhouse, but we wouldn't have had it any other way.

We had a grand feast, prepared with love by Osamu and Suna, while Atsumu and I took turns entertaining and playing with our little ones. The kids were overwhelmed with the gifts they received, and the joy on their faces was unforgettable.

As the night fell and the kids drifted off to sleep, we found ourselves cuddled up on the couch, basking in the love and happiness that surrounded us. The twinkling lights of the Christmas tree cast a warm glow, creating the perfect atmosphere to reflect on the wonders of parenthood.

On New Year's Eve, we gathered outside, standing in the crisp winter air, our breath visible as we counted down to midnight. We held each other's hands tightly, feeling an overwhelming sense of gratitude for the blessings that this past year had brought us.

As the final seconds ticked away, we kissed each other in celebration of the new year. We made a silent vow in our hearts to cherish every moment with our children and to create a lifetime of beautiful memories as a family.

The year had gone by in the blink of an eye, but our love for our children had only grown stronger. We were already looking forward to the adventures that awaited us in the coming year, and the joy that our little ones would bring into our lives.

As the clock struck midnight, we embraced each other, brimming with hope and excitement for what the future held. Together, we were ready to take on any challenges that came our way, knowing that our love for our children would guide us through.

And so, as the new year began, we held hands and walked into the unknown, confident in the love that bound us together. Our journey as a family had just begun, and we were determined to make every second count.

As the days turned into weeks and the weeks turned into months, our children continued to grow and thrive. Each milestone they reached filled our hearts with pride and joy.

Hina was the first to take her tentative steps, her tiny hand grasping on to the edge of the couch as she wobbled forward. We cheered and clapped, encouraging her to keep going. Miku was a born explorer, always curious and eager to explore her surroundings. Yuki, on the other hand, had a mischievous streak, always finding new ways to playfully tease his sisters.

Our home was filled with laughter, the pitter-patter of little feet, and the sound of our children's infectious giggles. Atsumu and I loved watching them interact with one another. Their bond as triplets was unbreakable, and it warmed our hearts to see how they looked out for one another.

With each passing month, it became more apparent just how different our children were from one another. Hina had a love for books, always reaching out for a story to be read to her. Miku had a talent for music, her little hands naturally finding their way to different instruments. And Yuki, the spirited one, had a deep interest in anything that involved motion—cars, planes, and trains fascinated him.

Weekends became family adventures, exploring local parks, going on picnics, and even taking the triplets on their first trip to the beach. Their faces lit up with wonder as their tiny toes touched the sand and the waves crashed against the shore. We built sandcastles, collected seashells, and Atsumu even taught them how to fly a kite.

As the triplets approached their second Christmas, we couldn't help but reflect on the amazing journey we had been on as a family. Time had flown by, but the memories we had created along the way were etched into our hearts forever.

This year, we decided to start a new tradition. We bought each of the triplets their own miniature Christmas tree and let them decorate it with ornaments they had made themselves. Their eyes shimmered with excitement as they carefully placed each decoration on their own little Christmas tree.

The house smelled of cinnamon and fresh pine, and the sound of Christmas carols filled the air. We bundled up in cozy blankets, sipping hot cocoa, and we spent evenings cuddled up on the couch, reading stories and watching holiday movies.

On Christmas morning, we woke up to the enthusiastic squeals of our children, excitedly running down the stairs to find presents waiting for them under the tree. Their eyes widened with wonder as they tore open their gifts, their laughter filling the room.

With each passing year, our love for our children continued to grow, and our bond as a family grew stronger. The moments we shared, both big and small, continued to shape us and bring us closer together. Our hearts were overflowing with gratitude for the incredible gift of parenthood.

As the years went by, our triplets grew into strong, independent individuals, always guided by the love and support of their family. The memories we had created during their first Christmas and beyond remained etched in our hearts, reminding us of the beautiful journey we had embarked upon as a family.

And as we sat together, hand in hand, watching our children chase their dreams, we knew that no matter where life took us, our love and bond as a family would always remain unbreakable.

As the years passed by, the triplets grew into remarkable individuals, each with a unique passion and purpose in life. Despite their different paths, their bond remained unbreakable, a testament to the unyielding power of sibling love.

After completing their respective education, the triplets found themselves back in their childhood home, surrounded by the familiar warmth that only family can provide. They had all achieved success in their chosen fields, but what truly mattered was the shared sense of contentment they felt whenever they were together.

One evening, gathered around the fireplace, the triplets reminisced about their journeys and the obstacles they had overcome. Tears of both joy and sadness welled up in their eyes as they realized the magnitude of their love for one another.

In that heartfelt moment, they made a vow to honor their late parents' legacy by dedicating themselves to making a positive impact on the world. They established a charitable foundation, aptly named "Footprints of Love," with the mission of providing education and support to underprivileged children worldwide.

Their dedication and resilience attracted attention and support from all corners of the globe. People from different backgrounds rallied behind their cause, offering their own resources and expertise to uplift disadvantaged communities. Together, they built schools, organized scholarships, and implemented programs that brought hope to countless lives.

The triplets' story spread far and wide, inspiring others to create their own footprint of love. Their selfless acts not only transformed the lives of those they directly reached but also ignited a chain reaction of kindness and compassion.

Years later, as the triplets watched their own children play around them, they couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude. Their parents' legacy lived on through the immense love they had sowed.

The heartfelt ending to their story was not just a conclusion but rather a beautiful beginning, one that would continue to touch hearts for generations to come. Through their unwavering love and dedication, the triplets had proven that no obstacle is insurmountable when fueled by love and unity.

And so, "Footprints of Love" became a timeless symbol, reminding humanity of the incredible power that lies within each of us to make a difference, to leave a lasting impact, and to create a world where love and compassion prevail.

Mundane AU

Fandom: KHR Word Count: 1,005 Prompt: Mundane AU Characters: Tsuna, Haru, Yamamoto Event Host: @flufftober

School always sucks when you're fourteen. Your teachers are monsters, half the school always hates you, gym class is horrible even when you're athletic, no one takes you seriously but no one shows you any pity anymore and you can't do anything about it either because you're not a kid but not an adult yet. It's even harder when you're the outcast of the school, the loser who can't get the girl, the guy who's picked last in gym class because your athletics suck and you can't even pass one of the easiest classes. A loser is a loser and will always be a loser and that was exactly what Tsuna was.

Every day he'd come home and every day his mother would ask the same thing. "How was school, Tsu-kun?" And every day, Tsuna would lie and say it was fine. And after spending his whole life being a loser, Tsuna finally made friends in a baseball player and the bad boy of the school. But even then, he was still the loser who couldn't get the girl, the guy who was picked last in gym class, and the kid who got the lowest scores in everything. No good Tsuna really lived up to the no good name.

Of course he'd end up with a crush on the most popular girl in school, but as always Tsuna was too afraid to talk to her because he knew deep down he was a loser. And then one day it happened. A girl actually talked to him for the first time. It was a girl from another school and sadly the only reason she was speaking to him was because she felt pity on him because once again no good Tsuna was the one left out when everyone else made weekend plans.

Haru had been walking home when she ran into Tsuna, Yamamoto and Gokudera. Of course Yamamoto couldn't hang out because he had baseball practice as always. Being the nerd he was, Gokudera's weekend was occupied with his studies. And that left poor Tsuna with nothing to do and no one to hang out with. Haru felt bad. "Why don't we hang out then, Tsuna-san?" She asked.

Sweat ran down Tsuna's face. Did this girl actually like him? It wasn't like he'd have a chance with her anyway, so why not. Tsuna was desperate to find a friend of any kind no matter what it took. He spent most of his life alone and it was the most painful part of life for him. He could handle the name calling, he could handle getting beaten up, he could even handle failing all his classes, but not having a single friend in his life was the most painful part of being the loser, when Haru asked him to hang out, it was a blessing on his life that Tsuna had never thought the gods would ever bestow on him. He accepted the offer immediately, though deep down he was scared, he was worried it was too good to be true and tomorrow he'd find out she'd stood him up and it was all a stupid prank anyway.

But the next evening came, a Friday to kick off the weekend and sure enough as the bell rang for school to let out there was Haru outside the fence of Namimori Junior High, waiting patiently for Tsuna to arrive. "Ah, Haru-chan. I didn't think you'd be here when I got out of class?" Tsuna questioned, he thought she might have had longer hours being that she was very smart and attended one of the hardest all girl schools to get into.

"Ah, today was just testing, since Haru finished all her tests before lunch, I got out early." She beamed with pride. Tsuna never saw her so happy in all the time he'd known her. He wondered if she was just a nerd like Gokudera who got excited about their grades, or if maybe her parents were hard on her? He secretly hoped she was just another intelligent geek who enjoyed reading everything she could get her hands on like the certain delinquent he hung out with on a daily basis.

"Gokudera-kun!" Haru waved as she caught him smoking outside the school again.

Of course, Tsuna was and always would be a loser. Haru hadn't been there for him, she had her eyes on his best friend the whole time. Maybe he could go hide in a hole somewhere and no one would notice him until he could get over the embarrassment he felt in thinking for even a second that he would have a chance with a girl as cool as Haru.

"Sawada!" And to make matters worse, there was the boxing club captain once again trying to recruit him when Tsuna couldn't throw a punch to save his life. At least someone had noticed him this time?

"Oi, Herbivore." Make that two people. The day couldn't get worse. Now the Namimori prefect was after him, for God only knows what this time. Tsuna was and always would be a loser, he didn't need anyone to tell him that. But he still had at least one friend who was there for him.

"Yo! Tsuna! You busy after school?" Yamamoto walked over.

"Don't you have baseball practice?" Tsuna asked. Yamamoto was an athlete and the heartthrob of the school. He still didn't understand what the guy saw in him, but he was thankful he had seen something at all.

Yamamoto shook his head and flashed his characteristic grin that Tsuna swore was what made half the girls in the school swoon after him, the other half were often busy crowding Gokudera. "No. Our practice was cancelled. We have conditioning next week though."

"Sure, we can hang out." Tsuna smiled and nodded. Maybe it wouldn't suck so bad to be the loser of the school if it meant he still had a friend in Yamamoto because having at least one friend in your life was still better than nothing.
