Summary: Sai could go to a local coffee shop and there would be one of his family’s products. The seeming democracy of Japan didn’t mean much when Sai had grown up watching his father’s ‘donations’ to politicians to run or reports to hush them about a story. His father only gave a damn because of Sai’s mathematical abilities. Sai had to get away from that life. He ran away back to India to live with his Mom. Leaving behind the only person cared for from that cursed family. His half-brother Ryusui.

i'll keep every promise (if it's a promise with you) | oikawa tooru x reader

oikawa tooru has a bad habit of breaking promises and running from his first love. or: the four times oikawa breaks his promises and the one time he keeps one

( a / n ) - oh my god this is my magnum opus... my baby.. its a little bit of angst and a little bit of fluff and a little slice of life. u go through ages 6 to 28 LMFAO. iwaizumi + you + oikawa were such a fun trio to write for and i hope u guys enjoy !!

gn! reader | 2k words | happy birthday OIKAWA

Oikawa Tooru has a guilty conscience and a bad habit of breaking his promises. 

For every promise made and every promise broken, Tooru repents: 200 yen slid in a saisen-bako, a ninety degree bow, two wishes at a shrine. An offering to counter every promise he breaks, ample water to wash away his sins, and apologies written on wood.

 ( Iwaizumi has made the grand suggestion of: Maybe not breaking your promises? on several occasions, but Tooru can’t help it. ) 

He’s broken four promises and made eight wishes so far: four on blue Tanzaku and four atop Ema boards, followed with a prayer and an offering if the promise broken was particularly heinous or particularly his fault. 

He breaks his first promise at six years old– one made with you and Iwaizumi when the three of you were four and freshly neighbors. It was Tooru’s birthday, and he had promised this: 

I swear that I will take us all to the Ryokan before I turn six.

It’s a small promise: one that neither you nor Hajime had expected him to follow through with. But Tooru believed it, and Tooru had tried. He takes every single chore and odd job in the Oikawa household, scraping together a two-year-old Ryokan trust fund with mismatched coins and crumpled bills. He saves his allowances and puts everything in a glass jar next to his bed, and dreams.

Two Julys pass. Oikawa blows out four candles and then five, the jar gets bigger, you start Elementary school, and you and Hajime forget about the Ryokan. And then, on the third July, when Tooru turns six, you and Iwaizumi find Tooru mumbling about a broken promise— courtesy of his failure to take the three of you on an all inclusive trip to that Snow Monkey Ryokan that Iwaizumi wanted to go to. 

So he apologizes through prayers at a shrine and two wishes under a red Torii gate. It’s a thirty five stair climb to the neighborhood shrine: Hajime and Tooru race up and you come last, but the view is gorgeous and Tooru feels considerably less guilty.

It is 100 yen for each wish on a colored paper strip. Hajime says they’re called Tanzaku. Hajime drops one coin, Tooru drops four, you drop two. Seven thunks, four wishes. 

Tooru gets the honor of tying your tanzaku on bamboo branches as the tallest of your trio, and with it, the honor of reading your wishes.

Iwaizumi’s wish is messy and scrawled on bright red— Tooru tells him to Please work on your handwriting, but it’s legible and all well wishes for volleyball and you and Oikawa and cicadas.

Tooru’s got two wishes— a cyan one and a turquoise one, but he only lets you and Hajime read the cyan one. His cyan one is a little neater than Iwaizumi’s and reads:

Sorry I couldn’t take us to the Monkey Ryokan. 

He hangs the red one on his tippy-toes. Cyan next. Hajime cheers a little when Tooru hangs turquoise next to your pink one, and then asks: 

“Whaddya need two wishes for anyways?” 

He shrugs. 

“Guilty conscience, maybe?”

You’re thirteen when Tooru promises that he is going to ask you out in two years. Tooru is not allowed to date until he’s in high school, so he tells you under a blanket of stars that when the two of you are a little older, he will ask you out properly and maybe take you on a date. 

He walks you to school every morning. Hajime comes too, but the pink skies before the sun rises are for you and Tooru. Moments before you make it to Iwaizumi’s block are moments that Tooru gives you his scarf, and then his gloves, and when the wind bites at your cheeks too hard his jacket is draped over your shoulders. On rainy days, Tooru holds the umbrella and laughs as your fingers brush and your cheeks flush. Some mornings he brings you toast: and tells you in hushed whispers to eat it before Iwa-Chan sees. 

Oikawa and Iwaizumi walk you home after cram school and volleyball practice. Hajime’s house is first— so Iwaizumi bows first, heads back inside first, waves goodnight first. When the door closes and the light turns on, the black sky and twinkling stars are for you and Tooru. He always says Good Night saccharine sweet with a smile like the sun that makes you feel like you really can’t wait to turn fifteen. 

Oikawa blows out fourteen candles. The three of you graduate in blue and walk home like usual. Summer passes, another July goes by, Oikawa blows out fifteen candles, and high school starts.

You learn several things in your first year at high school: you really like the student council, Hajime is actually pretty smart, and Tooru is afraid of commitment. 

Tooru is popular: he is athletic and tall and the Volleyball Club’s golden first year. He smiles at the girls in his class, he slings arms around their shoulders, he winks when he passes by the student council room, and he preens a little and shines a lot.

Oikawa is fifteen when he goes on his first date with a girl from another school: and when he tells you and Iwaizumi after he gets home, he plays dumb as Hajime gives him a look and takes you home, overhearing Iwaizumi’s apologies and your crestfallen voice as you say something about a promise.

Oikawa’s chest hurts that night so he walks to the shrine with 200 yen in his pocket and a sorry scrawled on two pieces of colored Tanzaku. 

Oikawa turns sixteen and goes to the shrine again. 

This time, it’s a broken promise with a girl in his class. She was popular– she smelled like cotton candy and reminded Tooru of strawberries and daisies, so when she asked Tooru out, he had said Sure, and he had smiled like she was the sun. 

But he’s a bad boyfriend– a terrible boyfriend– because he’s only there when it’s convenient and he ditches her for volleyball practice and maybe sometimes he catches himself thinking about a certain childhood friend when she holds his hand and buys him milk bread at lunch. 

She was sweet and she was terribly pretty, but he doesn’t feel anything when she kisses him or when she rests her head on his shoulder.

Iwaizumi asks him what he’s running from after practice one day. Tooru knows Iwaizumi is asking why he is running from you. 

Tooru is a little scared of how you make him feel too much. Oikawa likes being in control and Oikawa likes stability, so when he realizes that his heart thumps erratically whenever you’re around and he finds himself all consumed with thoughts of you and a burning desire to please you; he rejects and refrains. And runs.

His girlfriend dumps him after a few months. Tooru says sorry, removes her phone contact, and faintly remembers a promise he made with her four weeks ago. 

I swear I’m not in love with someone else.

from: hajime (23:26) Ur treat?

from: tooru (23:27) iwa-chan’s treat !! i’m going through a nasty breakup, remember ? \_( ◉ 3 ◉ )_/¯

from: you (23:29) hajime we know his address we can burn his room down

from: tooru (23:30) OK FINE my treat! it’s on me!!! everyone say thank you tooru !!!

from: hajime (23:31) thank you tooooruuu chan (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

tooru and y/n reacted with: Scared !

from: tooru (23:32) um please don’t do that ever again

Oikawa’s fourth promise is one to himself and one to Seijoh. 

We will make it to Nationals. 

He doesn’t leave his room for a week when he breaks it. He’s inconsolable. He says he’s sick: he’s got a bad fever, it’s contagious, he’s bedridden, he’s fine. But the lights are never on in his room, his curtains are always drawn, and you know that Tooru devoted everything for a chance and a dream and a volleyball. 

He comes to you first. He’s standing in your doorway and there are bags under his eyes and he says, Hi, and then, I’m fine. He tries for a smile— and then you give him a look, and suddenly he’s in your arms and sobbing. 

He cries for two hours. Tooru ugly cries– his chest racks when he sobs and his arms are tight around you and digging into your back. Oikawa Tooru is not weak: but he is not a prodigy.  

He falls asleep in your bed with his head in your lap and your hands in his hair, but his eyebrows are furrowed and he’s shifting a lot and he’s probably having a nightmare. You call Hajime before gently shaking Tooru awake. 

He blinks up at you— all puffy eyes and tousled hair and swollen cheeks, but he sees you and he softens.

“Wanna go to the shrine?”

Iwaizumi still grumbles the whole way up the thirty five steps, but he’s quiet as Oikawa slips two coins into the saizen-bako. Hajime wraps an arm around your shoulder as the coins rattle in the box and you know he’s upset too— his hands are slightly shaking and he keeps sniffing. Nationals might have been Oikawa’s dream but Iwaizumi was also a dreamer, and sure, Oikawa was going to go, but they were going to go together.

Tooru hangs two Ema boards and for the first time, he bows at the Honden. Two claps. Head down and hands together as he prays. Iwaizumi joins him: and you watch as Oikawa apologizes to him and Hajime shakes his head- because it was Hajime’s promise too. 

Oikawa is twenty-eight and on a plane when he finally keeps his first promise. 

It’s a small promise: but a promise nonetheless, one that he made before he left for Argentina. He tells you he loves you at the airport but he has his boarding pass in one hand and his passport in the other. And you tell him you love him too, but also that he’s being unfair, and no you won’t go out with him. And Oikawa knew you would say that, but he still finds himself making a promise– a promise you laugh at because Oikawa Tooru never keeps his promises.

If we’re still single in ten years, I’m going to find you, and I’m going to ask you out. 

You cry, and Tooru wraps his arms around you and cries too— and then Iwaizumi’s there, and Iwaizumi’s crying, and you don’t know which part of you is Oikawa or Iwaizumi. Oikawa leaves for Argentina with a heavy heart but a hunger for the future. 

In the ten years that pass he plays a lot of volleyball. He tans a lot. He learns some Spanish. He tries beach volleyball. And then, he buys a plane ticket on his birthday. 

from: y/n (21:12) happy birthday tooru !! me n hajime r having an honorary drink for u. hope ur having fun in argentina!!! hajime and i say te amo !!!!

from: tooru (21:15) i’d like a hot sake plssss thank u!!! ( ˙▿˙ )

from: y/n (21:15) LMFAO. no. me and haji r drinking ASAHI DRRRRRRYYYYYYYY for u bro also hajime got BUFF wat the hell hope ur tanning good in argentina 

from: tooru (21:16) well tell BUFF iwa chan that ill be there in 5 and i want a HOT SAKE and also YES i tanned good SO EYES OFF IWAIZUMI

from: y/n (21:17) ? what? ur funny lol … TOORU?

Tooru is twenty eight and might retire soon. Thirty five stairs is too many to climb and keeping promises is far more fun than breaking them. So he taps your shoulder, hands Iwaizumi your bouquet, and takes your cheeks in his palms to tilt your chin over. 

“Hi!” He says. 

 Tooru bends down to kiss you.

1am thoughts about a fic in progress and why it is the way it is in case anyone was wondering.

Ok I know no one was wondering but I just wanted to share this tidbit with anyone who wants to read my ramblings.

A few months ago, I wrote the first few chapters of a Crimson Flower Dimileth fic heavily inspired by offering boxes (saisen) found at Shinto and Buddhist shrines.

Irl at these shrines, it is common to toss coins into the box as an offering to the gods, usually in small humble amounts, so anyone rich or poor will be able to grant an offering.

The most popular choice is the five cent coin, a round coin with a circular cutout in the center.

五円 Go-en (five yen) is a humble choice but also is popular because it is a play on words of 御縁 Go-en, which is a phenomenon believed as the unseen connection that binds someone together. Upon offering the coin, it establishes a respectful relationship to the diety of the shrine.

Wake up babe, here's where we get to the part about Fire Emblem.

In my fic, the diety is not just Sothis, but "The Grim Dragon," the Nabatean god of the underworld.

The Blaiddyd crest has always had a very eerie connotation, whether in the form of Dimitri's ghosts (depending on your hc), or the original owner of the Crest stone, who's name we only know as the Grim Dragon Sign from the crest signs bought with renown in NG+.

After hearing Claude and Annette's A support, the "Creepy Creeps" in Annette's song are actually the dead, extending their reach from the underworld to try to return to the land of the living. Apparently, these are old Kingdom myths, but in my fic, they are reality.

The dead residing in Fharghus are sent to the underworld, and after the Battle of Tailtean Plains in CF, Dimitri is killed and bound to the afterlife ruled by the Grim Dragon. Distraught by the death of her old love, after Edelgard had spared Claude, Byleth suspected Edelgard had him killed out of jealousy, not for political reasons.

Jaded, Byleth mourns Dimitri's death at his grave, the very spot he perished. When Linhardt can't stand her moping around any longer, he tells her of the old Fharghan myth, sparking an idea to bring him back.

She figures with the power of the Goddess (she still has it at this point), she can establish a connection to the realm of death to the realm of life, by planting a blessed tree. The roots take hold and the Grim Dragon demands a hefty offering for the soul of his kin. Coins such as the five cent coin, are granted through an offering box.

Like all dragons, they are greedy, always demanding more for their hoard. I'd say more but that's for the next chapter to explain.

Before Byleth can offer enough to satisfy the dragon, Edelgard catches wind and has her killed by her ex-lover, Jeritza. Unable to finish her task, Byleth's body is dragged off the property to prevent her from joining Dimitri in the afterlife. (I'm being very mean to El in this one but I swear it's for plot reasons).

Thousands of years go by, and everyone has reincarnated into a Modern AU Fodlan run by the Empire, where the tales of old Fharghus is frowned upon, and the practices of the natives are seen as taboo.

We are always connected by the threads that bind us. It may stretch, tangle, but will never break.

Anyways! I've had to table the third chapter of my fic for other projects, but once my collab and yandere fic are completed, I will go straight back to it.

I've done my best to take obscure Fodlan lore and mix it with bits of the real world culture it was created by.

Oh, and modern AU Jeritza is in it and he owns a cozy cafe 🥰

I hope that if you read this far and are wondering what coins had to do with a small FE fic, uhhhhhhh well I wasn't sure where I was ever going to have to opportunity to share the inspiration so here it is.

Please enjoy.

Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan Saisen - Ending

[phlebaswrites]

Snow and Speech

Summary:

Izuna knows what he wants.

But how does he get it?

Rating: Mature Fandom: Naruto Relationship: Uchiha Hikaku/Uchiha Izuna/Senju Tobirama Word Count: 982 (Complete)

Entry for Naruto Polyamory Appreciation 2022 @polyam-naruto​

Bells / Silent night

An impossibility is just a possibility you don't understand yet. — Matt Haig, A Boy Called Christmas

Izuna climbs the steps of the temple, using chakra in order to leave the snow undisturbed.

The night is cold and lonely, but the moon is bright enough for him to see where he's going, even without the Sharingan.

The water in the chōzubachi has frozen over, but a quick katon takes care of that and Izuna relishes the warmth as he washes his hands. The touch of water to his lips feels like the breath of the divine, and he lets it run out of his cupped palms with respect. The sound of his coin in the saisen-bako is hollow, expected since this shrine is not a popular one, but the bell chimes sweetly, echoing in the still mountain air.

Izuna bows and claps his hands, holding his wish in his mind as he invokes the gods.

Silence creeps back into the world but not his heart, for that is all too full of emotion.

Read the rest on AO3.

DRAGON BALL SAISEN - The Animated Manga | ドラゴンボール再戦 - アニメーション漫画

[ljs98art]

DND doodles of how i imagine 4/6 of my party members characters, i will be asking them how close i got at some point but its a tad embarrassing to show real people my art lmao

Top Left Is a hexblood monk named Saisen

Top Right is an undead cavalier named Dennis

Bottom Left is a family of goblins named Papa Skrup, Baby Skrup, and Mama Skrup

And bottom right red sketch is my tiefling paladin Torment (Torm for short)

The two missing are Bruvit (a dragonborn cleric) and Ugene (a halforc monk/cleric) as i am still pestering my party members for descriptions of what they think they look like so i can do mini comics and animatics of our sessions!

[sukunarii]

i have a saisen for you!~ what would be sukuna's reaction if a g/n so has a max caulfield-esque powers? (time rewinding, etc.) GLAD UR BACK THO! been reading your stories *chef's kiss*

Thank you! I'm glad to be back and I miss all of you 💕💕

I'm not really familiar with the characters but I'll try 😆

--------

For starters I think when you first tell Sukuna about your cursed technique to manipulate time, he'll dismiss you casually

I mean Sukuna lowkey probably have a god complex, and what can a time manipulation technique do?

It can't slice and dice people or cause mass destruction sooo....boring 🙄

He'd tell you to stay behind and watch whenever there's a fight

"Just stay behind me my darling"

Not that you minded much, you didn't enjoy fighting anyways

However what Sukuna didn't know was that whenever a fight turns out unfavourable for him, you would rewind the time

You would shout at him which directions the attacks are coming from and how to dodge

Like one time you shouted "Sukuna! Dodge!"

Instinctively, Sukuna dodged and the fireball that the other sorcerer sent missed him by a few hairs

Sukuna: confusion.jpg

"Are you a mind reader?!"

You rolled your eyes, you've watched this scene three times already, you know what's coming up

After Sukuna won the fight, he turns to you and asked "How many times did you rewatch this fight?"

You were panting and visibly exhausted, "Maybe around a hundred or two times"

Sukuna sighed, then bends down to pick you up bridal style "I thought I told you to stay behind, foolish brat" he said

But still pressed a kiss to your forehead

This is Sukuna's best attempt at saying thank you, we won't judge him ✋

Over time, he would learn to listen to your instructions and the two of you became an infamous duo that was feared

You were Sukuna's Guardian Angel :)

------

Bonus:

Sukuna probably asked you one time if you could rewind time to revive his enemies so he could let them suffer again....you obviously said no (I hope) 💀💀

Summary:  “Unable to code for 5 to 10 years…,” Sai put his forehead to his hands. He had been woken by his younger brother and his friends to be their human calculator and he couldn’t even code. “How am I supposed to do that?” Sai shut his eyes. “Without coding…,” Sai took a deep breath and opened his eyes. His eye landed on a few crude pencils on the table next to him. They were just sharpened lead covered with paper but they worked. “Wrong! Coding is all I can do,”

Coming in late on the ship meme How bout Sen x Saito

I really found this one interesting! :D

General:

Rate the Ship -   Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs

Wowza….I’ve never thought aboutthis one AT ALL…but I kind of like it. I think Sen would fluster Saito no end…andI like that Idea very much :D ROFL!

How long will they last? They are in it for the long haul…it’s just how they are.

How quickly did/will they fall in love? I don’t see Saito ever EASILY falling in love…it’s just such a foreign thing for him, so it would take a bit of time for him to recognize it…Sen would know it much sooner and hence, her game begins to win over the heart of the quiet captain. :P

How was their first kiss? COMPLETEY shocking for Saito, since Sen was the instigator…but once the shock wore off…hungry!

Wedding:

Who proposed? - Saito…He’s just the type that, once he acknowledges he’s fallen, he won’t bother denying it. He embraces it fully.

Who is the best man/men? Hijikata and Amagiri

Who is the braid’s maid(s)? Kimigiku and Chizuru

Who did the most planning? -Sen, Kimigiku and Chizuru…though much of it wasn’t so much planned as it was expected due to Sen’s station in life…

Who stressed the most? - Saito…He was pretty much a basket of nerves from the moment he proposed until he kissed his new wife.

How fancy was the ceremony? - Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big.

As the princess of the Oni…it wasjust big for reasons.

Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? - Saito REALLY wanted to not invite Kazama, but…he withheld his grievance for his wife-to-be’s sake.

Sex:

Who is on top? - Both, though more often than not, Sen likes to take the reins.

Who is the one to instigate things? -Again, both…and it’s pretty equal

How healthy is their sex life? - Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now

Sen likes to try new things and she’spreeeetttttttty darn good at getting Saito to come out of his shell.

How kinky are they? - Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s head

Again, were it completely left toSaito, it probably wouldn’t be this high, but Sen brings out the beast in him…;)

How long do they normally last? - It depends…usually it’s a long night of love-making

Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? Absolutely-

How rough are they in bed? - Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.

Neither are really into roughstuff, but they do get…worked up pretty easily

How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? - No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.

They both like to feel the othernext to them while they sleep

Children:

How many children will they have naturally? Two, both boys

How many children will they adopt? none

Who gets stuck with the most diapers? Saito does this most often, just because he wants to make sure Sen’s time is free for…princessing ;)

Who is the more loved parent? -They are both loved equally

Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings? Sen…she likes the politics of it and Saito does NOT

Who cried the most at graduation? - Sen, though it wasn’t so much crying as her eyes teared up a tiny bit

Who is more likely to surprise the other(s) with an anniversary dinner? -Sen….but she had the servants fix it, and she directed them to fix all of Saito’s favorite dishes

Who is more likely to suggest going out? - Sen…she likes getting out and seeing what’s going on in the world. Plus…she just likes showing off her handsome husband, much to his dismay
