TYPEFACES I THINK THE MOBSAI MAIN CAST WOULD USE
Decided to be insane and come up with some headcanons on the typefaces each character would use. Please shout at me about it on the psychohelmet forum if you get the chance. I've copied and pasted the headcanons under the read more for your viewing pleasure.
I wanted to share my headcanons for the different fonts (using this term very generally) each of the mobsai main cast would use (if we are imagining that they were given free rein to do so for some reason, and also that they wrote using a latin alphabet, obviously) which I just made up off the top of my head right now.
Anyway, here we go:
Mob - Calibri
I think this one makes a lot of sense, just off the bat. I really don't think Mob would be a serif sort of guy, he's too plain and unassuming for that. What better than to make him a very default font. I honestly don't think you can even get more default than calibri. It even sounds a little lame when you say it. Despite that, it's a pretty dependable font, it appears everywhere, and I would argue is very powerful due to its universality and legibility on any-sized devices. But don't just take my word for it, here's what Microsoft has to say about it: "Its proportions allow high impact in tightly set lines of big and small text alike. Calibri’s many curves and the new rasteriser team up in bigger sizes to reveal a warm and soft character." I would argue that this clearly reflects Mob's welcoming character and desire to understand and empathise with any number of characters within the show.
Reigen - Arial
Again, I do feel like this just makes sense to me. Reigen is also a real sans-serif sort of guy, he's the greatest psychic of the 21st century, he's spice city's bro! Arial I feel is also a little more professional than calibri, while still being quite similar in appearance, which I feel reflects the influence Reigen has over Mob's character and development within the story. Described by Microsoft as an "extremely versatile" typeface, especially "for display use in newspapers, advertising and promotions", I think this works well for Reigen's character. It's also a pretty dyslexia friendly font, which I think would be a fun fact he'd shoot at Mob.
Dimple - Papyrus
This one was a little tricky. I wanted it to look dated, considering Dimple's been dead for some time, while also being a little flashy to reflect his desires for godhood. I settled on papyrus because, well, look at it. It's definitely what I'd consider a meme typeface (which I think is fitting for a sentient fart, honestly), but it's also loud without being too out there, and a popular and fun font to use. It's unapologetic and real, which I think Dimple represents as a character, and the complete opposite of a font like calibri. It also looks good in green.
Ritsu - Times New Roman
Ritsu is absolutely a serif guy, through and through. He's always on that 12pt Times New Roman shit, even if he's just writing a casual email to someone. Ritsu is someone who takes things seriously, and has a reputation he wants/needs to uphold. I'm sure he read somewhere that TNR (I'm not writing that shit out again) was the professional font and just made it his whole personality or something. It looks good, so I'm not complaining. I've also heard that TNR is a good font to make study notes in, because you remember it better (I think this was a myth uni students used to tell each other though) but I'm sure he stands behind this fact wholeheartedly.
Teru - Blackadder ITC
Just listen to what Microsoft has to say here in its overview of this font: "Blackadder ITC font is an elegant, yet menacing display face is perfect for theatrical uses and scare tactics." Not only is it elegant and swirly, but works well with his flashy appearances and fashion choices throughout the show. It's impressive and makes a scene when it appears, and walks the line between impressive and gaudy very well for someone as in-TERU-sting as Hanazawa. I do think he'd switch around fonts a little, but this would be his favourite for sure.
Serizawa - Roboto
This one was also hard, and I'm not sure I did him justice. I think, given Serizawa's lack of real-life experience outside of a terrorist organisation as well as his time online, I wanted to go with a font that was professionally acceptable, but still a bit of an outlier. Roboto is also the default font on android devices, and all other google services, which I figured would reflect the 'shut in' phase of his life. It's sorta plain, but does the job and follows the rules without asking too many questions. I think if we were talking specifics, he'd be Roboto Mono.
Tome - Courier New
I need to preface this explanation by saying I love Tome. More than almost all of the characters in this show. She reminds me a lot of myself as a kid. This one's personal. Tome is obsessed with proving the existence of aliens, or any sort of extraterrestrial and paranormal activity. She starts the Telepathy club to research these phenomena, she's absolutely committed (apart from in that one episode) to show the world she's right, to have her friends take her interests seriously. I think she'd want to use a font that was interesting to look at, while still being serious-enough to reflect her passion for pursuing the truth. She probably watched the X-Files as a kid and really wanted to type up some legit-looking reports on the unexplained. No I'm not projecting.
Shou - Comic Sans MS
I mean, what did you expect. He uses Comic Sans for all his reports and thinks he's the funniest guy ever for doing so. He also just likes how it looks, I think he'd be into superhero comics and would love to make any work he does look similar. Not only is it a funny text face, Microsoft also calls it "useful" due to its readability. I think that definitely mirrors Shou's extraversion and his role as a helpful figure, both to Ritsu and to his father at the conclusion of his arc. I also bet he logs on to Toichiro's desktop sometimes and changes his default email font to comic sans too, probably makes the fantastic five or whatever they're called piss themselves with laughter. Also a frequent Wingdings user, for sure.
Toichiro - Futura
Guess I have to put him in here too, since I talked about Shou. I chose Futura here for what it stands for, a purely geometric and efficient typeface which I feel reflects Suzuki's ethos of wanting to be the best and creating a world where 'supreme beings' rule over normal humans. The progressive feel Futura has here becomes skewed, not towards a bright future but towards a descruction of the old order and a rebuilding of an ESPer-led world. An incredibly popular font, which I feel is all about appearances and precision, it wants its letters to stand in line, breaking away from the old 'grotesque' style of former sans-serif fonts. Do you see my vision?
Sample of their fonts below:

Okay, @dahllaz, let's go.
7. your preferred writing fonts:
I am definitely a sans-serif girl. Arial or Calibri will do it for me. Very easily pleased. It doesn't take much.
16. favorite place to write:
Not sure I would call it my favourite place, but I do most of my writing at my laptop at my work desk. I have a standing desk in my living room, with an executive fancy office chair (I needed the extra height, because the standing desk's lowest height setting was still too high for the highest chair setting in a regular office chair, because I am a short ass. I also use my old massage table bolster as a foot rest, so that I can sit at the proper stance, back straight, arms at right angles, feet on the floor/rest). It's a very comfy set up. PLUS, a standing desk. So I can stand when I want. It's in my living room in front of my television so I can also watch tv/listen to music when I work.
Back in the day, I used to handwrite all my fics and I would do it on the train, during breaks at uni, breaks at work, wherever the mood took me. Now I mostly type it directly. I type faster than I write, so it flows a lot better.
29. how easy is it for you to come up with titles?
Actually, pretty easy.
The majority of the time, I have the title before the fic springs to mind. Or, I have a general idea of the fic and the title will come to me. Definitely before I start writing. I have a history of using song titles. Paint It Black, Memory Cloud, The Girl of My Dreams is Giving Me Nightmares, Wicked Game, Spoonful of Sugar, etc...
Although, sometimes the fic titles will come from themes. Deep Deep Down Where the Darkness Dwells, A Swan is A Beautiful Creature, Molasses and Taffy, Sometimes, The Catch, Subject 3662, The Best Deceptions, Blooding the Water.
It's a rare, rare fic where I don't have a title before I write. Even D5, which remained title-less for the first six or so chapters before I posted it, was actually titled well before that, I was just resisting it and trying to think of something else.
Same as The New Moon, (for obvious reasons I was resisting this title), but after The Blue Moon, The Honey Moon, The Waning Moon, and Lunar Eclipse, there really was only one title for the fifth in the series. I mean, I could have called it The Waxing Crescent Moon, but let's be real it just doesn't have the same ring.

HIIIII :D
12 and 7 for the fic writer asks?
Hello!!!!
12. a trope you’re really into right now
I'll be honest this answer changes DAILY (hourly even) but you know the 'I don't remember who you are but I think you're important to me' thing? yeah. That. I literally wrote an orv fic with it like last week..
7. your preferred writing fonts
For fanfic it's just my Google docs default which is Arial. Stimuwrite's default is Roboto sans and I don't change it. It's only when I'm writing something serious like uni notes or assignments that I ever switch fonts and it's to use comic sans because yes.

Hi <333
For the writing asks i would like to know 1, 16 and 35 or just one of those if all are too much
Heya Berry!! <3 hehe
1. What font do you write in? Do you actually care or is that just the default setting?
I write in Arial! It's the default setting, though I had a long time where I wrote in exclusively Calibri and got very upset when it for some reason wasn't set to be that. Then I stopped writing for a while and apparently that reset the brain, and now it's Arial gfdhsj
(not the default, and very important to me, is the gaps between paragraphs. literally will not write past a paragraph before enabling that if I forgot before, it's too blocky otherwise and I need it for the brain)
16. What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever used as a bookmark?
Oh, I think I'm pretty tame in that regard? My current bookmarks are an actual paper bookmark (space, in blue/ purple) and a long expired coupon for an etsy shop I once bought earrings from. In uni times I often used pens or highlighters as bookmarks though, when I had to flip between many sections quickly, because those leave a gap I can quickly slip my fingers into! But otherwise I don't remember any particularly weird bookmarks, I mostly just use the nearest clean flat something that's available!
35. What’s your favorite writing rule to smash into smithereens?
I think there's a rule about not starting sentences with like "and" or "but" and stuff? I'm so ready to break and ignore rules I'm not even sure about the details fghdjs (plus the differences between German and English grammar - fuck if I know)
There's just a difference between like, academic writing (which I never want to do again, jfc) and creative writing - the latter is a medium to toy with to begin with! But now that I'm remembering academic writing, god. One time we got to write an essay where we didn't have to hide that yes, this is our opinion and we are in fact a person writing this and not a perfectly objective computer. I immediately just turned the whole thing into a bit and that's why I once had to reference a youtube comedy sketch in APA style <3
And oh, actually! I just remembered I take so many liberties in terms of compound words and capitalization, where German brain comes through. Like night vision I hate that it's two words, I say nightvision because it looks better to me, and I won't stop, same with any other suddenly-a-compound-word words, don't mind that read along <3

I am a person of principles. Sometimes my principles a beyond myself to conprehend. I was having a nice chill weekend and then I watched some videos about fonts and decided that I should switch the font for my upcoming talk as I am not really happy with arial. And i decided to go with Helvetia as it is a bitt more minimalist and elegant and has a cool pop culture legacy. So I cycled back to uni to redo my whole talk for more than three hours so that the "a"'s and the kerning is a bit different. Also i was chilling with a colleague during the redo, philosophised about the detailed placement of lines for some figures and finished of with competing in guessing the rgb values of colours.
No person on the planet will notice these little details but the thought of me keeping in the errors in the figures is tormenting.
Just havin a normal one i guess.

Typeface selection
Part of my research was to look into a typeface selection for my animation when the time came to create it. I looked into various different sources and opinions about what typeface could work and considered the context of the speech, furthermore who it was said by.
An article on the website 99designs by Lindsay Kramer "a copy and content writer" cites the following:
"Fonts are one of the most important design choices to make when developing your brand identity. The best fonts leave you feeling like you’ve made an instant friend while the worst fonts are like a stranger who won’t leave you alone."
Therefore it was critical I get my typeface selection correct if I wanted to send the right message through my animation.
Kramer lists the following points about what makes a good typeface:
Even kerning Consistency Balance Legibility
Then lists the following points about what makes a bad typeface:
Overused Imbalanced Unreadable Boring "Fauxotic" fonts
When choosing a typeface I should consider that the typeface is
"Well-crafted and aesthetically pleasing (and) appropriate for your brand".
Kramer lists the following as good typefaces:
Didot Bodoni Garamond Futura Helvetica Mrs Eaves Baskerville Akzidenz-Grotesk Clarendon Gill Sans Verdana Frutiger FF Din Proxima Nova Uni Sans
And then the following for bad typefaces:
Copperplate Gothic Times New Roman Trajan Pro Comic Sans Courier Papyrus Bonzai Neuland-Inline Brush Script Souvenir FF Blur Impact Trajan Pro Curlz Jokerman Lobster Bleeding Cowboys Arial
While all incredibly subjective dependant on the clients needs I feel that this list is incredibly consistent with what I believe. Therefore out of the selection of "good" typefaces, I decided to choose Helvetica. It is incredibly well known and the only draw back from Kramer's list is that it's "overused". However, I thought that since I was working with kinetic type I might be able to use it and get away with it since I will be playing with different ways to present it visually. Not to mention that the wide array of weights that the font family offers allows me to choose weights when I animate to illustrate points better.
I then looked into other sources for a second opinion on what the "best" typefaces are and was met with the same answer on BonFX, a table created by Douglas Bonneville in 2015 lists Helvetica as the number 1 best typeface to use.
With that I then moved into whether Helvetica could be appropriate in a professional setting (to reflect the professionalism of Helen Clark throughout the speech) and found a resource on Studio Kayama by "ikumikayama" under the article "5 fonts that add credibility and professionalism to scientific research". Helvetica is listed at number 2 on their list. With Kayama citing "Helvetica is a font that looks great on both print and on screen.  Nature , Science, and Cell request that their figure labels be in Helvetica". Therefore Helvetica is appropriate for a formal/professional setting such as this topic, and furthermore reflecting the professionalism of Helen Clark throughout the speech.
Finally I looked at a resource dedicated to praising Helvetica (despite a potentially bias view). An article on Indusnet by Mainak Biswas titled "Helvetica Lovers Unite: Probably the Most Prolific Font in the World". Biswas states that Helvetica "is legible even when the viewer is in motion, making it popular amongst signage and airline logos" therefore switching it so that the type is in motion would most certainly be viable. Biswas also states that Helvetica is "omnipresent, a lot of big brand have their logos in the Helvetica font. Even though it was widely used, the message it sends across and its professionalism is unmatched".
This concludes my research, justification and selection of a typeface for my animation. Helvetica is suitable for a professional setting and therefore represents Helen Clark in just as a professional setting. Is incredibly popular and safe to use and has a wide range of weights to be able to utilise during my animation.

Verdana: ...
Komei: ...
Tumblr media
Verdana and Komei: *spontaneous woohoo!*

Komei: Since we just fell in love during sex, would you mind marrying me?
Verdana: Yeah, sure!
ALSO, OMG YOU GUYS, GUESS WHAT! I was looking through my old updates while writing this (I was trying to find a particular picture, and DO YOU KNOW WHAT?!?!!
Komei made a walkby cameo when EINSTEIN and WILLOUGHBY were in college!
I...just got really excited about that. Sorry. Back to your regularly scheduled legacy.
Tumblr media
Arial: Guys, I don't feel so well.
Cloverfield reference, anyone?

Tumblr media
Trebuchet: *drops out* I'm gonna join the Army! I've been stationed somewhere named Blood Gulch...Never heard of it before.
Tumblr media
Yeah, sorry Shelby, your daughter's fiancee isn't around on account of him JUST DROPPING OUT OF COLLEGE, and WHY DO YOU WANT TO TALK TO HIM ANYWAY, you've NEVER MET HIM?!
And also you're interrupting your daughter's dropping out of college. Verdana switched aspirations to Family for Sophomore year, so I jumped on the chance to play less people through Uni.

Hellooo, I hope you are okay 😊, i just read the "their crush catches them staring" and I loved so much.
May I request a (y/n) who is from another country and when she gets mad (not necessarily with them but it could be) she stars cursing and talking in another language? And them they just be like "wtf are you talking?"
I really like to see a Brazilian (y/n) with Shinichiro, Mikey and Chifuyu but you can change if you want, I really don't mind :)
Ps: I didn't find your rules so I hope me request is okay
Aaaa I really love the idea of this! I feel like the boys would get all shocked pikachu faces and look at y/n like she grew another head 😭😭 As a bilinggual I often find myself code switching to a different language especially in expressions and sounds of frustration or when my grandparents would tell me to repeat what I say in my native language because they say english is wayy too fast (I'm filo btw)
Tumblr media
Hearing their s/o speak in their native language
includes: shinichiro, mikey, chifuyu
warnings: swearing
wordcount: 2115
NOTE: so this is the first time i'm ever doing sumthing that involves another language and I did a little research on the words I've decided to put but please feel free to correct me if I used some of the words in the wrong context or if the translation i've put on the word is wrong
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to write this hope yall enjoy!
Tumblr media
shinichiro
As a boyfriend he prolly already knows that you can speak a different language
but
that doesn't stop him from blinking back and getting surprised whenever he hears you though
cue the core memory he had when he heard you speaking to your grandma over the phone one time
it was all normal until it wasnt
from the start of the conversation on the phone, you had your grandma on speaker and he understood every bit of what yall were saying
at first, he thought he started disassociating when he thought he heard you start speaking gibberish
has a confused face and blinks back like 🙂
"i just understood what they were talking about a second ago and now 🙃🙃"
literally doesn't know what to do whenever you speak a different language like does he say anything or do you need a hug or a pat
so he just awkwardly stands there in hopes you'd explain whst just happened
It was one of those days where you were bombarded with hell works from uni. Having already pulled 3 all-nighters this week and still a massive pile of essays needed to be done and god let's not get started on your thesis paper. The only thing that had you fueled right now was the two bobas you had earlier and now an iced latte.
So much for the last month of your senior year
With squinted eyes you could see the clock read 11:09
Not knowing shinichiro had been behind you, who had been sitting by your shared kitchens table, watching for what felt like 10 minutes still somewhat drowsy having just woken up because he noticed you weren't in bed with him yet.
Uni really did take most of your time and he always did applaud you for being quite the model student but at the price of your health he wasn't just going to stand back while you overworked yourself to death
"I wonder if tonight's gonna be another all-nighter" you say aloud before opening up your laptop to start on those hellish essays.
'How many needed to be done again' you think as you count the ones that were nearly due on your laptop's sticky notes
(A/n: do people still use sticky notes as a reminders tab for hw or is it just me huhuhu)
one...
two...
three...
An unamused chuckle left your lips then had your tongue kiss against your front teeth, "damn this is really gonna be the death of me" you mutter as you checking over the requirements needed for the first paper you chose to start on
--
Literary Critique on a Historical Account
Font: Arial
Font size: 11
Wordcount: 2000 words minimum
--
Running a hand through your hair," Foda-se essa merda" (fuck this shit) you say before you started drafting out what you want to put on your essay
Shinichiro who still stood behind you, who usually had no clue what you were saying whenever you spoke brazilian but this sure as hell gave "screw this" vibes
Letting out a chuckle he brings both his hands to your tense shoulders and kneads at them before kissing the top of your head, "it's cute when your mad and speak in your native language" he feels you squirm and whine in response to that sending him a small glare before looking back at your screen
"We'll do just that one essay tonight and let's get you to bed, the others aren't due for a couple more days anyway" he adds as he grabs a chair to sit next to you
bonus:
"So what'd ya say earlier?" shinichiro yawns sleepily his head down and cheeks squished by the kitchen table
"Fuck this shit"
"Figured," he laughs, "Damn my portugese really do be on point these days"
Tumblr media
mikey
for mikey you're pretty sure you told him but he ends up forgetting so the first time he heard you swear in a dif language (which he doesnt know is a swear ) he was shookt
like eyes wide looking like a shocked pikachu
at first he starts to think he just didn't hear you properly or he wasn't paying attention or that you just mispronounced a word but then it happens again and again
thinks its sum sercret code you aren't telling him and he gets pouty over that
you tell him its cause you have a habit of code switching into languages when ur in a mood
feels betrayed you never told him but you remind him that yes you did tell him and he mustve forgot
asks you to teach him basic greetings and sum swearing
thinks some words are cute and fun to say so he uses them a lot and brags he knows how to speak in brazilian portugese
he goes "oh this?" "it's portugese, ya my s/o taught me" "cool right?"
Today was a saturday and you and mikey normally spend them alternating from each of your houses to chill and hangout but what turned into you two just hanging out chilling turned into a family reunion he wasn't expecting.
It started with a phone call from your mother, who had went on a trip abroad to visit your auntie and her other siblings since she and her family had grew up in Brazil and mikey only just found out about that fact a few moments he had learned you could speak the said language.
"Mama!" you beamed just as you picked up the call, mikey by the back goes oh and shouts, "Auntie (M/n)! Tell her I said hi!"
"Mikey says hi," you tell your mom who you put on speaker and says hello back. A ruckus could be heard on the background and a voice asking "quem e mikey?" (who's mikey) only for your mother to respond "o namorado da minha filha" (my daughter's boyfriend) to which sounds of gasps and excitement and some hushed whispers could be heard from the other line
You laugh, "was that Auntie?" the response only met with the person in question
"(Y/n) hello〜" you hear the voice of your aunt chime to which you do the same before loudly greeting, "Tia!" (Auntie)
Exchanges were made and Mikey hears you hum in response before saying, "Tudo bem," (everything's great) before glancing back at him with a smile to which he smiles back patiently waiting on you like a puppy and then you add, "E voce" (what about you?)
From there the conversation had stretched on from there and Mikey could feel himself disassociating with every foreign word as he looks around confused, he pouted cause all he wanted was a saturday to spend time with his s/o but then again he thinks when the last tike you had even talk to your aunt was that mustve been long too so he forces himself to patiently wait since he knew family really is priority
and seeing you so happy, carefree and speaking so naturally despite it a language that was foreign to him had him smiling, he cant deny the way that your happiness brings him happiness too
Soon you had sat on the bed back with mikey who had laid his head on your lap rubbing his head on your belly
"Tchau tia" you say while running a hand through your boyfriend's hair
"Tchau my lovely niece ," she replies back but not a second later
"Mikey kun tchau tchau, sorry you had to wait long" she adds making you laugh and mikey to perk up from his place on your lap
"s-sem problemas" (no problem) he says looking at you if he's said it right to which you happily nodded
your aunt was amazed and complimented his skills and for being so smart which boosted his ego quite the bit (you swear your aunt exaggerates too much)
As soon as the call ended mikey snuggled back into you "can we hangout now?" mikey asks with a pout, "felt left out a while back now take responsibility" you laughed at that and mikey sat up to your confusion.
"So tchau tchau means bye right?" mikey asks with a serious face to which you respond with a hum
"thought it ws adeus hmmmmmm i like tchau tchau better," he says before going back to his position on your lap
bonus:
After mikey met up with draken for a little lunch discussion and both had to leave mikey saw his opportunity.
"ken-chin tchau tchau!" he waved before driving off
draken who stood with a confused face muttered the words, "tchau tchau? the hell is that?"
Tumblr media
chifuyu
thinks its really cool you could speak brazilian portugese or like a different language in general
loves it but once again this boy is in the clueless squad with shinichiro whenever he does hear you speak it
boy really be lost sometimes
and no he's not talking bout those one-liner phrases but those full on rants you have in the language
the boy would have to rely on your facial expressions and actions to see if what you were going on about is a good or bad thing though sumtimes he can't really tell anymore
first time he heard you speak said language he was wundering if he had heard you right or if you even were talking to him
you were muttering on about something and he hadn't quite the clue so he was just intently watching you while you murmur to yourself
to be honest he'd be more curious and intrigued than shocked when he finally pieced that you infact were speaking in a different language
one of your bonding moments include word of the day where he'd ask you what random objects you guys had in your language and stressing over pronounciation and intonations
You were pacing around your room with your phone in hand muttering in portugese, that was the state chifuyu found you in when he unexpectedly came over to hangout which had been approximately 15 minutes ago.
To anyone else, it might've been a weird sight but having known you and your quirky habits he had grown accustomed to it.
Though the first time he did see you pacing around the room muttering in a foreign language he thought you were performing some sort of ritual though he knew well enough now that it was a worrying habit you had. That whenever you were uncertain of something or if you stressed yourself over something too much then a switch would flip inside of you, your brazilian switch, because you thought more rationally whenever you were more in a comfortable state, a state which feels at home to you
So knowing you were worried about something but not knowing what that something was about sent chifuyu at unease. So the last 15 minutes he had spent waiting in confusion waiting for you to spill the beans whenever you were ready
"Se voce fizer isso," (if you do this) you started, "voce vai se foder..." (you might fuck it up/ get yourself in trouble)
After letting out a whine you lay back flat on your bed with on of your arms covering your eyes
"calmed down yet?" chifuyu asks and you shake your head no
"can you tell me why you're worried this time?" he pries a little
"i did a stupid" he hears you say
"A stupid?" he tries to see if you would start spilling, honestly a little curious what "stupid" you did to make you go so fussy about
"eu nem sei" (i dont even know)
"hey hey I won't be able to understand if you start code switching now"
"dont laugh" you pouted before looking him straight in the eye as you sat up
"why would i laugh"
"because!" the event seemed to have rushed back into your head as you whined and buried yourself in your pillows out of embarrassment.
"c'mon now (y/n)" chifuyu says as he tugs on you but you only hugged into your pillows tighter.
"I sent in the wrong assignment," you say and chifuyu stops his tugging and runs a hand through his hair and leans back on your bed
"it's not that ba- "I accidentally sent in my Iwaoi fanfic instead and I can't unsend because its locked in!" you exclaimed burying your head a muffled, "now my teacher is gonna know I ship them! and-and aaaaaaaaaa" your scream muffled by the pillow, "I can't anymore aaaaaaaaaaaa this Ruim pra caralho" (fucking bad)
Chifuyu couldn't take it anymore and a laugh escaped his lips as he pat down on his distraught s/o who only whined at him more and swore in her native tongue at how he was laughing at her.
Tumblr media
I'm really sorry for having this kinda rushed but to all my bilingual and multilinggual babies out there a question for you! What triggers you into code switching or what triggers you to speak in your native language? Enjoyed? Leave a tip :)
