Thoughts on the Attack on Titan Musical
tl:dr; It's been two weeks but I am still not over it.
When I posted the photo of myself holding the playbill of the Attack on Titan musical the most common reaction was "WHAT???", so I guess some background might be good to start with.
Yes, the Attack on Musical is a thing. It was first performed in Japan in January 2023 with shows in Osaka and Tokyo. When it was announced that a second run of the musical would include New York City, I pounced on tickets.
See, it's real! This is my video of the closing number. We were allowed to record this.
The New York run was at the New York City Center which seats about 2200 people. There were a total of 4 shows the weekend of Oct 12. I attended the Saturday matinee. The style of this production is known 2.5D, and is incredibly popular in Japan. I did some checking and this is the first time a 2.5D anime adaptation has appeared outside of Asia. Did Attack on Titan work as a musical?
Surprisingly yes, although I think anyone who wandered in off the streets would've been thoroughly confused. The themes that attracted most of us to the series translate wonderfully to the stage, and despite knowing the story well, they managed to make it feel fresh. Carla's death, for instance. When she realized she was trapped and facing certain death, her song to Eren and Mikasa was a children's lullaby about survival. That portion of the manga always hit me hard, but the desperation, horror and love set to a lullaby? Damn it musical, you made me cry.
The original scene of Hange leading a Titan Biology class might be my favorite of the entire show. The actor who played Hange was the perfect amount of unhinged and delightful as they dance across the table while the 104th answered a pop quiz. (And yes to "they" since the playbill specifically mentions that the actor in the role was known for her portrayal of nonbinary characters.) It was genuinely hilarious.
The musical covers the first 11 chapters of the manga, stopping in the "Struggle for Trost" arc, where the plan for Eren to plug the hole in the wall was conceived but not yet executed. I remember reading that portion of the manga years ago and feeling that same sense of optimism. So the musical ends on a high. Humans finally have a way to win against the titans, It felt like a strange place to end, knowing what ultimately happens in the story, so I wondered if the intention is for a part 2 musical adaptation.
(btw, the staging of "can you plug the hole" had Eren and Levi kneeling closely on the floor together with a manly shoulder clasp looking earnestly at each other. It had me looking at my very ereri friend with raised eyebrows. It was for sure her favorite moment.) What was the performance like?
The short run 2.5D musicals don't have the polish or production budget of a true broadway musical, but it was still wildly entertaining. Since the director is known for breakdance and hiphop, there was plenty of that. The dance numbers were fun. The songs were catchy.
Rather than try to describe it, here's a TikTok review that shows off the 3dmg, the titans, and that two minute head spin that no one could shut up about.
instagram
Also, the cast could not have been for perfect. I mean LOOK AT THEM!
From this tweet
Who was in attendance?
As I mentioned before, this was a first in many ways so it attracted people from all over the world. While I was opening my blind box items, I met a group older women from Japan who'd travelled to New York from Tokyo and had purchased tickets to every single NY performance. Their English wasn't great, and my Japanese is nonexistent, but what surprised me the most wasn't their dedication to the show, but that they seemed genuinely surprised to see me. I don't know if that was because I too am an older fan like them, or if they weren't expecting equally passionate westerners at the show but I tend to think it was both. I suspect the Japanese fandom has no idea how big this series is outside of Japan, or that it attracts such a diverse audience.
My podcast partner Luna was sitting next to two women who'd flown in from California. They knew nothing about Attack on Titan but were fans of the actor who played Eren. Since it was his first time performing outside of Japan, they came solely to see him.
On my flight home was a 22 year old wearing an Attack on Titan musical t-shirt. We started talking and I learned it was his first time in New York, his first time seeing a broadway musical, and his first time traveling alone. He just loves the series that much.
In general the audience was much younger than what you'd normally see at a broadway show and 100% more excited. Plenty of people were in cosplay or else wearing Attack on Titan clothing. The atmosphere was insane.
My merch haul
The mug and t-shirt sold out before the second show so I was glad I was there early to snag them. The playbill is selling on Mercari for almost $50. Sadly my poster didn't survive the trip home. It cracked in about 50 places.
Did you do anything else in NYC
Aside from hanging out with so many of my favorite people, the Kodansha Popup House was going on. It was incredibly cool.
We met up with James from the Titan Teatime podcast. I think the plan is do a joint podcast in a few weeks to get everyone's thoughts . I'll post more about that if it actually happens.
Final Thoughts
Rumor has it that the show's successful New York run could mean it will branch out further. If it goes to London, nothing will stop me from being there. It was that much fun, and I can't wait to share the experience with my European friends.

HIT THE SLAY BUTTON 🚨🚨
i was and am absolutely sick and floored that i couldn’t find a single drag queen jamie headcanon or design. i, frankly, absolutely despise designing things, especially fashion, so i grit my teeth and went into agony to deliver this concept.
seriously, how can you not look at this kid and go “a DRAAAG QUEEN???” anyways…here’s my design notes
if i’m referring to jamie in his drag persona, i’ll be using she/her pronouns as is customary with drag queens. and forgive me for any historical or chinese errors; i cannot read or write chinese i can only speak it, and my buddy vinnie stopped answering my questions after a while.
tentative drag name: xiao long bao—yun and yang are known as the white dragon (bai long) and blue dragon (lan long) respectively, but jamie’s title is a pun: “dragon” or “long” is the title, but the entire word “xiao long bao” jsut means soup dumpling. and that’s fitting to me as a nickname for jamie, but imo, it’s not a good drag name. it’s cute and it’s fitting, but it’s not vogue, it’s not a performance name. PLEASE GIVE ME IDEAS IM BEGGING YOU
jamie really seems to like having chinese inspirations in his normalwear, so it made sense to me to have his drag persona be very inspired by hanfu (i believe this is uhhh tang dynasty; the one focused on very ornate patterns with the cross-body robes and emphasis on a waistline; though normally every chinese character pulls from song-dynasty tradition). since i’m not very imaginative, this look was pulled straight from Guangzong drag queen Yuhua Hamasaki
in that traditional chinese hairstyle, jamie has 4 loops in the back with the crown and 4 major pieces of clothing, and with every swig, the loop gets untied and a piece of clothing gets taken off (numbered in order of taken off) the top of the clothes is a zhiju (2, 直裾), dark purple with a reddish iridescent pattern, with a the red xiapei (霞帔) scarf on top. it’s tied with a “horse face skirt”—mamianqun (1, 马面裙) —giving that very long dress/skirt sillohette. underneath that is a jinru (3, 晋襦), another cross-body but shorter robe that’s red and hides the typical drag queen bodysuit (4) that she can then breakdance in.
i debated the logistics of breakdancing in drag heels, but turns out elektra fence has done it on drag race before so. i don’t need to justify its plausibility.
the other two designs are kind of jokes; i’ve (against my will) been forced to see that darkstalkers felicia jamie mod, and i think it’d be a really cool if this actually was a drag thing of his, especially with my hc that yang kind of treats jamie like a beloved stray cat. and felicia’s a performer and singer; i’m sure he could do it. i did adapt some things from felicia’s design; instead of an actual tail (or even a prop one)—which could fuck up jamie’s breakdancing routine—she ties her hair at the end, where it’s dyed white to act as a “tail.” i also hope you enjoy the paw high heel concepts i came up with.
i like jttw, it’s probably my favorite legend of all time and i blame sun wukong for 40% of my personality. but quan yin is absolute fucking mother, and we must pay tribute, so like with his usual routine, jamie strips and reveals the lotus dress underneath her robes.
yun and yang are surprisingly supportive of jamie’s drag hobby, and they’re willing to participate in performances or just show up to support; hence, i think they open up the quan yin act with a fight between sun wukong (yun) and the liu er mihou (yang) before jamie comes in and breaks up the fight by distinguishing the two. the reason for yang’s pensive expression is that, because sun wukong and liu er mihou look exactly alike, then yang has to look like yun, something he despises. would require heavy convincing, but i think he’d eventually budge.
i think jamie’s drag attitude (and attitude in general) reminds me a lot of wesley snipes—an actor typically in hypermasculine action films, who played a very flamboyant drag queen. i’m referencing his role as noxemma jackson in “to wong foo” of course; everything about snipes as noxemma absolutely reeks of jamie, and i could see this being a major inspiration and influence for him
i thought a bit about jamie on rupaul’s drag race, and i concluded that he would fucking hate it. drag queens are viscous, and jamie’s good at quipping insults back, but he’s also used to being able to throw hands afterwards. i can imagine he’d say things like “even the most aggressive, dangerous street fighter cannot match the viciousness of these girls.” i also think he would not like rupaul because rupaul is racist and the judges don’t like cultural performances.
ah yes. the lesbian fucking love drag queens. drag in general—they show the fuck up. jamie in drag would summon every dyke with a 50 mile radius immediately, tips and drinks in hand to be given.
anyways, someone please tell me i’m not insane for this idea that is totally canon, peer reviewed, no notes.
#street fighter#street fighter 6#darkstalkers#sf6#third strike#jamie siu#yun lee#yang lee#drag race#drag queen#gay#my art#might draw luke’s reaction asp cause ive actually never drawn him yet

Sister: That’s why they gotta stop announcing everything they do in this show, like...
Sister: I feel like [Norma’s] just dead at this point.
Sister: I feel like they’re leading up to him being like a mass shooter or something. Me: You think he’s gonna snap? Sister: He seems like the type...
Sister: …I think being free would making him happy. I mean, [Toby] had that whole vision about being free that did not include [Chris], so I think he’ll be fine.
Sister: You can just tell them anything and they’ll let you through…
Sister: What’s wrong with this guy? What’s he in for? Me: Hate crimes… Murder, officially, I think. Sister: Hate crime? What’s he sniffing people for? Me: He's just a perv...
Sister: …That’s so gross… In my sickened state*, I can’t even summon a bleugh. Me: [Retching noise] Sister: Thanks. (*We got some booster shots yesterday and Sister always gets sick afterward lol)
Sister: When are they going to address that guy whose wife also died? Me: Never. Sister: So why did they introduce her?! To spout off some facts and get shushed by the priest?? Me: Maybe there was originally supposed to be more of a story to it and it go cut. Sister: No, they just wanted to do their little after school special moment and then not deal with it. You know, if any of the Muslims should be having the issues in these episodes, it should be the other guy (Arif), not Mr. Said... Me: They could have issues together. Sister: Yeah. Kill the Nazi helper dude. The one who's egging everything on. Schillinger doesn't even really do stuff on his own anymore. Before, he didn't want to fight and wanted to become a Jesus freak and it was always that guy whispering in his ear. And now look.
Sister: How we know he’s not gonna build a bomb in there? … Oh, I guess they took away all the cleaning supplies…
Stray Thoughts
Sister says Jia Kenmin and Li Chen’s plan to provoke Ryan so they could kill him in self defense was really not thought-out
Sister is convinced that someone is going to die for one of the dogs
Sister believes that killing Robson would get rid of most of the Aryans’ bite since she views him as being the worst out of all the Aryans
Final thoughts
The scene where Robson and what’s his face torture Lalar is the toughest scene to watch in the entire show, imo. And it pisses me off (like, I’m actually getting mad thinking about it right now, lol) that Robson gets more expansion in terms of character as the show progresses, too, because whooooooooo gives a shit about a Nazi?! They still haven’t followed up on Arif’s wife LMAO. Also Urbano gets introduced this episode and they don’t end up doing shit with him, really, either. But let’s learn about this asshole!!
Sister: I feel like they’ve run out of storylines with the Muslims and are just repeating past ones. Wasn’t it [Arif] who was the one complaining about Said’s leadership the last time? And then he couldn’t handle it which caused the whole thing… and now he’s doing it again? Me: I think they just don’t like when Said helps other people. They complained when Said was spending time on Beecher, too… Sister: Yeah, [Arif] is so needy… He’s like “you’re spending too much time with your roommate who you have to stay in a cell with” and also every time he is around, [Said] just wants [Omar] to be quiet anyway…

Catching MK1 characters' FRIENDSHIPs - Raiden
[ ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIP ] , [ NON-CANON COMPLIANT ] , [ NOT PROOFREAD/JUST PURE SILLY ]
i wasn't entirely sure how to write this one, but then my buddy @thelocalbozo came up with this awesome idea for it . i actually got really excited upon hearing it and immediately had to start writing lol
that reminds me , there'll be a poll at the end of the oneshot allowing you to pick the next frienship !!
i'm not too proud of this one , but i hope y'all enjoy it :]
Over the past month or so, Raiden had been given the task of babysitting your nephew, Dustin, seeing as his parents had been in a bit of a financial rut and started working overtime to make ends meet. Though it was technically you that was supposed to be babysitting him, you were also a busy person and couldn't spend most of the day watching over him, but Raiden was glad to watch over him whilst you did your job. Unsurprisingly, Dustin and Raiden got along pretty well. You may not be there to witness it completely, but Dustin was always so hyped to be dropped off at your place.
The month of October was rolling to an end, Halloween now settling upon the neighborhood streets. Cage had invited both you and Raiden to a little Halloween party, you agreed to go whilst Raiden said he would swing by only for a little bit, seeing as he promised to go Trick-or-Treating with Dustin.
You found yourself at Cage's mansion, the place lined all around with Halloween decorations and props. Both Earthrealmers and Outworlders populated the party, most of which were ones that you thankfully recognized. In your hand was a plastic red cup of a half-empty beverage as you stood in a not-so crowded area, adorned in a baggy Pikachu onesie that you managed to fish out of your wardrobe.
"Lovebug!" You hear Raiden's voice calling out that sweet little nickname he had given you, prompting you to turn around. You were met with the sight of Raiden, in his usual robes and hat, with Dustin clutching his hand whilst wearing what's basically a carbon copy of Raiden's clothes.
"Oh my goodness, just look at how adorable you are!" You cooed, bending to Dustin's level as he gave you a toothy and excited grin. "You look just like Uncle Raiden!"
"I'm Kidd Thunder!" Dustin exclaims proudly, hands shooting up as he showed off his costume. Raiden couldn't help but chuckle at the sight before giving Dustin a slight nudge, prompting him to look over at him.
"Do you wanna show them your cool tricks?" Raiden hummed, receiving an eager nod from Dustin. The boy scurried off in the direction of the bathroom, disappearing into the crowd and leaving you and Raiden face-to-face.
"What kind of tricks did you teach him?"
"Oh, you'll see."
The smirk that now tugged at Raiden's lips was enough to warrant your curiosity, cocking a brow as you watched him step back whilst rubbing his hands together. The lights began to flicker, and with a few crackles and buzzes of electricity, he raised his hands up, fingers aimed towards the ground as he cast his lightning.
The lights went out, casting the room in a momentary darkness before the lines of Raiden's clothes became clear, glowing a bright blue like his lightning. With a burst of electricity, Dustin suddenly appeared next to him, his costume glowing in a similar fashion as he proudly screamed, "KIDD THUNDER!!"
The eyes of the party now on the duo, Raiden and Dustin began to bust some dance moves without hesitation, the buzzes of Raiden's lightning providing a sick soundtrack to go along with it. The two seemed to be in sync, but Dustin absolutely stole the spotlight as he began to breakdance. The partygoers cheered, their claps and cheers growing louder as the two finalized their act, the lights flickering back to life as Raiden calmed the bolts.
You simply stood there, jaw hanging open in shock. Not only did Dustin admire Raiden so much to the point of dressing up as him, but they even came up with cool tricks and a whole dance? Your shock immediately crumbled into adoration as you let out a hearty giggle, bending down to Dustin's level and giving him a playful pinch in the cheek.
"You did so well!" You cooed, Dustin hearing your praise over the crowd's excited chatter. Dustin was buzzing with joy, practically just as energetic and hyped as Raiden's lightning powers. You stood up, attention now on your lover as you leaned in to give him a kiss on the cheek. "And you did so well in taking care of him."
Raiden let out a sheepish chuckle, a blush spreading across his cheeks as your lips pressed to his face for only a second before pulling away. He gave you a small nod before looking down at Dustin, taking him by the hand and gesturing towards the exit.
"C'mon, Kidd Thunder. You've got some candy to collect."

characters that i believe are black
what are my qualifications you may ask? i'm black. thats it those are my qualifications
also if i see a single comment about "blackwashing" i will lose my SHIT, i swear to god
also theres no fandom order for this so good luck trying to figure out what's coming next
MINA ASHIDO (MY HERO ACADEMIA)
she breakdances, she's spunky, she's energetic. she's deffo one of those black girls who wears cookie monster pajama pants to school and adopts shy kids cuz she doesn't have that type of shame
like... need i make myself clear enough?
also she definitely has some sort of vitiligo
IZUKU MIDORIYA (MY HERO ACADEMIA)
i mean... he has no father. horikoshi practically screamed in my face that this kid is black as fuck.
he deffo cant cook tho, which i like to think is something that bakugou teases him relentlessly for
also this boy is tenderheaded as fuck and cries when mina does his hair
LUCINDA (APHMAU MCD/MYSTREET)
LOOK AT HER. look me in the eyes and tell me RIGHT now that that is not an albino black woman
you cant, im simply correct on everything
god i miss my girl. lucinda you deserve the world and you deserve all of the screentime and i cannot believe that bitch aaron SNATCHED the screentime that was rightfully yours
THE STRILONDES (HOMESTUCK)
"but do you mean all of-" YES. ALL OF THEM. they are all black and they are all jewish hussie told me so himself, argue with the GODDAMN wall.
ARADIA / DAMARA MEGIDO (HOMESTUCK)
my favorite weird girl <3
"but the megidos are asi-" WHY ARE YOU IN MY HOUSE. SHUT UP.
first of all the fact that damara's typing quirk was just Straight Up Japanese (and not even GOOD japanese either) is NOT the best fucking look if you want to potray another race. but also people can be biracial that is a thing and i hc the megidos as being blasian.
there is everyone happy? good now lets keep going
NEPETA / MEULIN LEIJON (HOMESTUCK)
(my second favorite weird girl)
(my THIRD favorite weird girl)
i dunno. theyre my faves. i love them. therefore they are black. i feel like i dont need much explanation other than that
KARKAT / KANKRI VANTAS (HOMESTUCK)
ugh. the thing that sucks about ones with family (or... i guess in the trolls case, the closest thing of "family" you can get) is that you have to make them all the same race or otherwise you have to explain the weird shit
kankri is lightskinned and uses his white passing privilege for evil.
also before you even THINK about trying to pass off white vantas: LOOK at their fucking storyline. just LOOK at it.
(before i move on from homestuck, i just wanna mention a quick side note: i didnt include gamzee or kurloz for one Very Obvious reason and thats the fact that, just like damara and her incredibly broken and bad Japanese as hussie's horrendous attempts to include other races in homestuck, i simply believe that the notion of all purple bloods being naturally incredibly violent is Not A Good Look. especially adding in that the only reason why gamzee is pacified is because he's doing the troll equivalent of hard drugs. and you can make an argument because... well.. what about kurloz? and to that my response would be WHAT ABOUT HIM? because i dont remember dick diddly and SQUAT about him and i dont really care.
so yeah i didnt include the makaras because while i do believe they are black i dont believe theyre the best representation because the only reason why people think that is because of the incredibly racist undertones of it)
ANYWAY i'm doing ONE more because this thread is already so goddamn long
POPPY AND VIVA (TROLLS)
the silliest girls possibly in the entire universe. i think they're black and hispanic mixed (im thinking maybe dominican or cuban)
ANYWAY! end of this long ass fucking thread. i cant believe my first fucking post on this account was this monster of a thread
anyway, follow me if you like any of these fandoms ig
#LONG POST WARNING#LIKE SO GODDAMN LONG#also sorry if the formatting is weird i did this on my laptop#trolls#homestuck#my hero academia#aphmau mystreet#aphmau mcd#mina ashido#izuku midoriya#strilondes#dave strider#rose lalonde#roxy lalonde#dirk strider#karkat vantas#kankri vantas#damara megido#aradia megido#nepeta leijon#meulin leijon#poppy trolls#viva trolls#was that all the characters?#god i hope so#spazposting

How well the bad kids can dance.
6. Gorgug, absolutely not. He doesn’t want to nor does he know how to. The closest thing he can do his head bang but that’s about it.
5. Adaine, Adaine doesn’t want to dance, nor does he get dance as a concept. “Why are people moving their bodies like that??” Even though high elves are really into dance and song, she doesn’t get it.
4. Kristen, thinks she can dance, cannot. The only dance she knows, and is good at, is the dance of Helio which includes her ribbon.
3. Fig, Fig is more of singer than a dance. But she will definitely throw down if everyone else is dancing. She also tries to encourage other people to dance.
2. Riz, Could dance if he wanted to. I like to think he, for some reason knows how to breakdance?? Idk man. Baron also tries to slow dance with him once and awhile so he knows a bit of that. (He avoids the dance floor in fear of being stepped on)
1. Fabian, we all know this.
Gorgug prefers standing off to the side and watching everyone else. His own movements are too clunky to be considered graceful and he worries that he'll mess up and hurt someone so he just stays far out of the way.
Adaine doesnt understand why people find dancing fun. Her anxiety is too high to feel comfortable with people watching her (is she doing it wrong) and in the end you're just sweaty and tired and that sounds like the oposite of a good time.
Kristen loves dancing but its all uncoordinated flailing limbs that you're in danger of getting hit by if you're not careful. She learned her ribbon dance when she was a little kid and it was drilled into her until it was perfect. Very few songs fit the movements but it's pretty impressive if she finds one that does.
Fig is an incredibly gifted bard and that flows into her dancing, even though its not her preferred medium. She becomes one with the rhythm and beat and tries to help her less coordinated friends have fun too but often doesn't dance for very long herself.
Riz's dexterity is as high as Fabians, and he could probably do a decent immitation of a dance if he watched someone else do it first. He is small though and getting into a crowd of other people not doing any sort of coordinated dance is too dangerous so he usually sits off to the side. He is Fabians favorite victim for when the other boy wants to dance with someone in their party, though he makes sure to steer clear of the crowd as he pulls a thoroughly harassed looking goblin along with him. Riz thinks it looks stupid because of the height difference but he enjoys it none the less.
Fabian would dance to the sound of a ticking clock if he was in the mood for it. He enjoys grabbing his friends and roping them into the dance with him but some of them are a lot harder to shift than others (Gorgug is basically impossible to move, where as Riz he can literally swing around one-handed with little effort). Adaine is fun to dance with if he can convince her, but it's usually very short dances before she's winded and has to go sit back down. Kristen gave him a black eye the last time he tried. The whole party is convinced that him and Fig do the best joint dances together even though they dont do so very often.
#fantasy high#riz gukgak#bad kids#fig faeth#fabian seacaster#gorgug thistlespring#adaine abernant#kristen applebees

OKAY! It’s time for the Chimera Baby Lore Post!!
🌼 How did you come up with the OC's name?
In both a meta and non-meta sense, Chimera Baby’s name is probably the most notable part about them. The name Chimera Baby is a reference to m-flo and LiSA’s Tripod Baby, ft in the game Shadow the Hedgehog. For over 6 months that was her official non-official name, as I couldn’t decide on a name for her. I received over 15 name suggestions, but in July I ran a poll at which point she was dubbed Mira!
As it turns out, Mira happens to be the name of a binary star system. Two stars in a dance doomed to end in supernova—rather fitting for a chimera character, wouldn’t you say? I like to imagine Shadow was the one to name Mira something meaningful and space-themed like that, meanwhile Sonic named the other child something totally arbitrary (“His name is Mochi because he's white lol”)
On that note, I’ve also decided Sonic calls Mira “Chili” exclusively, because its silly and he would. So Mira, Chimera Baby, CB, and Chili are all names she goes by!
🌸 How old are they? (Or approximate age range)
I like to depict them anywhere from baby to teenager, but in their most recent incarnation I’d say they’re somewhere between 15-17
💖 Do they have any love interest(s)?
At the moment no. She’s generally too aloof and off putting for anyone to approach her with romantic intent, but maybe in the future….
🍓What is their favorite food?
Strawberries and Triangle Chao Fruit
⭐️ What do they do for a living?
💥 Do they have any hobbies?
Besides combat training, CB enjoys the occasional outdoor activity. Sometimes her friends goad her into a game of soccer (which she is an absolute beast at), but she generally prefers solo sports such as archery, rock climbing, or hiking. Sometimes her brother convinces her to fish with him, but she finds it pretty boring (but would never turn him down)
💃 What do they do best?
Mira excels at hand-to-hand combat. As the reigning champion of Chao Karate, Mira takes their martial arts training very seriously. They also possess exemplary control over chaos energy, and incorporates this into their technique. While they may not be as fast as their fathers, they make up for it with not just raw power, but an extremely disciplined technique.
Her skills also happen to make her an amazing breakdancer, but she’ll break your face if you ask her to demonstrate.
☀️ What is one of your OC's best memories?
A tie between making her baby brother laugh for the first time and the time she drew first blood for the first time in a fight with Shadow
🌧️ What is one of your OC's worst memories?
The aftermath of almost drowning as a child after she saved a chao friend.
✍️ Is their current design the first one?
For the most part—I did redesign their shoes because originally they were rocking some McDonalds drip.
💡What originally inspired the OC?
This post i made ^^
Basically its a mix of me poking fun at the phenomena of Sonadow fan-children all looking kinda similar, and this plush reminding me of actual chimerism in animals and wanting to create a character with that characteristic! Over the months my ironic love for her has grown into genuine fondness—so while she remains primarily as a parody, she’s also a character I’m having fun exploring concepts with <3 Much like both Shadow and Sonic the Hedgehog, you can take her as seriously or not seriously as you wish!
👾 What genre do they belong in?
PS1-era graphics Jet Set Radio game
🏳️🌈 What is your OC's gender identity and sexuality?
Non-binary and trans (you decide what direction). And she’s bisexual bc i love bisexuals <3
🍃How many sibling does your OC have?
One little brother Mochi—he is a perfect angel who is also her closest friend. She adores him, but you wouldn’t know from seeing them interact.
⚠️ What is the OC's relationship w/their parents like?
So I mentioned that Mira was reared in a chao garden, where her dads basically only visited once every couple days if not longer (Sonic and Shadow are not very attentive parents, go figure). However, this was honestly a perfectly fine arrangement as I headcanon mobian children don’t need the same level of parental contact as human children (Hell, Cream is kind of an outlier FOR having a present parental figure in her life).
That being said, I imagine Shadow spent more time with her when she was really young before stepping away, which made her really latch onto Shadow more than Sonic during that time. Especially seeing as Sonic is the most laissez-faire parent ever but simultaneously was the type to abandon her on a floating platform in midair with a trail of badniks so she can learn how to homing attack.
Much like her father before her, her latent Black Arms genes have caused her to develop a burning desire to destroy Shadow—a fact that Shadow seems strangely indifferent about. While this fact has pretty much wrecked their previous relationship, there are circumstances where Mira will put aside her goal and work with Shadow against a common enemy or towards a common objective (of course, this doesn’t stop her from trying to stab him in the back during these operations).
Her relationship with Sonic has remained mostly the same, with Sonic treating her much more like a friend or little sister than a daughter. They have lunch together at least once a month, and usually she’ll go to him for advice on any social interaction matter—conversations that have become much more frequent now that she’s begun to make friends.
💗 What do you like most about the OC?
I think I popped off with her design—chimerism is such an interesting concept and I loved balancing her two sets of genes without making it seem too busy. I also love her dynamic of trying to kill Shadow and how you would think her growing up in chao garden basically alone would have contributed to that, but that's not the case at all she’s just like that <3
‼️ Who is your OC's arch-nemesis or rival?
Shadow the Hedgehog is her self-proclaimed nemesis, but she makes a fair share of enemies and rivals wherever she goes due to her punch-first-ask-questions-later attitude. One notable rival is another OC of mine named Sauvik the Badger—another cold and brooding anti-hero much like her. Sauvik and Mochi are something of a team, but being a protective big sister she wants him to stay away from her brother. This generally leads to a fight that Mochi is inevitably forced to break up.
⏰ How long have you had the OC?
She was created in January of 2023!
—
That’s all! Feel free to ask any other questions and remember to vote for her here!

Made the mistake of watching the entirety of season four of the umbrella academy. I’ve got some thoughts to get out so here we go.
-why did this whole marigold Durango thing just come out of basically nowhere? No real buildup besides the occasional view of yellow mist?
-also why it makes two people with it merge into some world ending monster blob? Ew
-Ben and Jen deserved more. The actors had chemistry and I would’ve loved a different storyline for them where they still got to be in love but didn’t turn into a blob.
-Klaus and his subplot contributed nothing. Gave me nothing. Not sure why that was his thing instead of, I don’t know, something more substantial to his character and the growth and backslide he went through? But creepy bikers and ghost dog I guess woof woof
-Luther deserved more than being a sexy lamp. That’s all he was this season it felt like. A pretty face and funny gags. Legs and eggs.
-Diego. Oh poor Diego. He has gone through too much character development for all of that. What a terrible storyline for him. Unnecessary drama.
-Viktor felt disconnected from the storyline while being in the middle of it. Weird. I don’t think any of the actors were feeling this writing and character assassinations.
-I have nothing good to say about what they did to Five. Worst character assassination yet. The only thing good was Brisket Five. What is his story.
-Lila was more than a love triangle enticement. She deserved better. Like the laser eyes tho. Unnecessary but cool.
-Allison, whom I hated last season, was maybe the most compassionate character again like she was in season one? That was good, but felt off since last season made her such a villain but now that she has Claire back she’s good again. There wasn’t any growth to be had or improvement. Disappointing. Her goodness is entirely dependent on her daughter’s presence. Boo. Face consequences.
-Abigail was underdeveloped and confusing. Could’ve been used better.
-you mean ten percent of New York (or wherever this was) was waiting on a Muse song to play on the radio before they go to start a mob?
-this season honestly felt like someone watched The Boys and wanted to take notes. Ew.
-great all these characters we’ve watched the last four seasons cease to exist. Love it.🙃
-this had the same feeling as the Olympic breakdancer. I could’ve done better.
-I love happy endings, but I would’ve been fine with a bittersweet one. This was neither. It was garbage.
-well thank goodness I was worried the Handler wouldn’t get a happy ending. That sure made it all worth it. All is forgiven🙄
I may make a post later on how I would’ve written it, but for now I needed to get the rant off my chest.

svt reacts: your long ass skincare routine
tags: all members, fluff, humor, slice of life, gn!reader
cheol: he is honestly a little amazed but he is kind of jealous. “you’re doing those clay face masks, baby? can you put it on me too?” just wants to be babied and wants your attention
han: um, HE taught you your skin routine. like, you best believe if you get lazy, he will be the one to be like “it’s just one more step.” it never is just one more step. he just wants to be the best looking couple at any event and so he can brag to the others about doing skincare together.
josh: he likes fondly smiling while watching you do it. he’s the type to just have maybe 3 steps, so when your heinous 10 step skin care routine takes a whole hour for you to do, it’s just amusing. he likes that you take time for self care like this.
jun: he doesn’t even understand 90% of what you put on your face. he goes to an aesthetician weekly and washes his face, but that’s it. he’s scared to ask you because you might make him to do with you every day. he’s honestly kind of amazed that you remember to do this daily.
hoshi: he likes talking to you about his day while you do skincare, because you’re usually silent or can respond in small phrases between steps. he thinks you’ll get bored of the skincare if he’s not there to entertain you. this is fine until he tries to make you laugh when the mask requires you to be straight faced.
wonu: he likes keeping track of which step you’re on like a daily checklist. sometimes when you get lazy, he reminds you that you forgot a step. if you ever add or take out a product, he likes to ask about it. he’s just so curious about you and the things you do.
woozi: bruh tbh he falls asleep while you’re doing it every time. he wakes up when you crawl into bed with him and his response without fail every time is, “oh, you finished?” he tries to stay awake, but it’s like weirdly comforting asmr.
deekay: he loves when you do your skincare. he sits in the bathroom next to you and likes to talk to you about random things he thought about that day (he keeps a running list on his notes app about things to talk about during your skincare time).
mingyu: another boy who is jealous of your skincare of getting more attention than him. obviously a physical affection type of person, so he likes hovering around you. he also puts his hair up with those skincare headbands. (you have matching headbands: dog ears, obviously.) he does them with you because he likes when you touch his face.
hao: you have matching frog headbands. he’s just as prepared as you with skincare. it’s just… he has different products compared to you. your sink is just a mess for an hour while you two do skincare next to each other. it’s a good routine, but he gets upset if you start the next step without him.
kwan: he think’s it is very high maintenance. he can’t keep track of that kind of stuff on his own. he likes it when you two do face masks together. the other stuff you do, he just kind of sits there reading through scripts or practicing lines. he gets surprised if you react to his lines tho
vernon: once a week, you do this peel-off mask and he likes doing that one with you because it makes your face feel like a fresh blueberry. when you met him, he probably washed his face with his body wash and still had perfect skin. that’s just how he vernons
dino: does the skincare routine with you but he always dances while you two wait for something to dry or before applying the net step. face masks drying? breakdance time. toweling your face dry? moonwalk. he does it to make you laugh, but he ends up cracking himself up more

Sonic Characters At Parties
In the spirit of the fact it's my birthday, teehee -wanted to make a headcanon post about what the characters do/how they they act at parties (not necessarily birthday ones!)
Sonic: This man is the life of the party (Pt. 1) - in the wise words of Kesha, the party don't start until he walks in. He's loud, he breakdances, he belts in karaoke, and he shovels food in his face. Get him on the music because he's about to play the sickest beats. However, this comes at the cost of Sonic needing a total 'me' day to himself after. He fucks off and runs to spend time all day by himself in nature to recharge his social battery.
He's a professional troll when invited to fancy gatherings - and will find a way to play innapropriate music on the speakers.
Tails: A lot more muted compared to his friend, but he tries to get involved with the party in every way he can. He'll join Sonic on the dance floor and somehow can do a robot dance better than Omega can (everyone is still trying to figure out how that works). He won't sing karaoke unless he's singing in a group though, and in the case of birthday parties - this fox WILL find a way to sneak an extra slice of cake. Will also help Sonic in his music antics at fancy gatherings.
Knuckles: In most instances, he stands awkwardly by the snacks like an NPC in the corner not knowing what to do with himself until he's dragged to the dance floor by his more extroverted friends. Sonic drags Knuckles into a dance battle and they become the centre of the attention because these boys can DANCE. Somehow they end the night on the karaoke stage singing a duet of Breaking Free from High School Musical - screaming the lyrics to each other off-key, but pouring their souls into the performance.
Amy: She planned the party - without her - there isn't a party. She knows everyone's favourite snacks and everyone cheers when they see her reveal whatever cake she made for their birthday. She's a fellow life of the party (Pt. 2) - getting herself involved with the dancing and while not the greatest singer- gives her all in karaoke. She's also insanely good at party games and you know for a fact that she's going to find a way to incorporate truth or dare into the night.
Rouge: Girl has a mission, okay? And that's to stir up as much chaos as possible. She's life of the party (Pt. 3) - and uses the opportunity to get as much gossip as possible. She causes trouble and has so much fun doing it - last time, she managed to make a food fight break out and it was the time of everyone's lives. She basically wins almost any party game she joins but that's usually because she's shamelessly cheating. Either way, she also enjoys dancing and singing in the karaoke - and has got a pretty decent voice actually.
If she's ever invited out somewhere high class, girl is leaving that party several times richer.
Shadow: He warps in, takes a slice of cake, and leaves. Rouge signed his name in the happy birthday card, that's enough right?
He made one exception to this on Rouge's last birthday party where he actually joined in on things. He spent the first half brooding in the corner with a plastic cup of punch until the Sonic and Knuckles dance battle broke out. Sonic taunted Shadow to get involved - and get involved he did. No one could have been prepared for how fucking good Shadow was - putting Sonic and Knuckles to shame. Was that the end of the surprises? No, because he busted out broadway vocals during karaoke. Perks of being the Ultimate Life Form.
Silver: In complete contrast to the above hedgehog, Silver has a great time at parties - but he sucks ass at dancing. He's giving it his all but he's totally off time and his movements are just... very bizzarre, or they're just giving nothing. They're the equivelent of the "go white boy go" meme. But he's trying his best and he's having such a good time that no one can fault him. He also doesn't mind giving karaoke a try but isn't amazing at it either, but nothing can kill this man's vibes.
Blaze: She's a lot more reserved in parties compared to her friends and tends to stand off to the side a bit while everyone else is being loud and wacky. She CAN dance... but her dancing style is more ballet than anything else. She joins in a bit but usually goes off the dance floor after a couple of dances, happy to linger by the snacks. However, she has beautiful vocals in karaoke - and the party takes a moment to slow down as Blaze treats them to a soft ballad.
Omega: Doesn't even wanna be here, but hey - Rouge drug him to it, what's a robot to do? He doesn't care if it's someone else's birthday, HE'S the one who gets to destroy the pinata. He might join in a dance or two with enough coaxing and his hidden bluetooth speaker function often comes in handy. But overall, would much rather stay at home with Shadow.

Reggae Dance Judge: The crowd’s really into it. Their popularity is no joke
Reggae Dance Judge: But popularity isn’t gonna cut it. It’s all about the techniques. I’m gonna be extra strict with them——
Chihiro: (I always get kinda nervous before stepping onto the stage. But….)
Chihiro: (It’ll be okay. We’ll show them our way. We’ll bring out all the excitement, thrills, and joy——)
Chihiro: (I want everyone here to experience such emotions!)

Some Animorphs head canon that doesn't affect anything but I would include if I was ever in charge of bringing those teenage war criminals victims to the screen:
Elfangor wears a jacket and stands contra-posto (putting weight on one leg and taking it off another) making him different from other Andalites who wear nothing and keep weight evenly on all four legs. His time on earth has made him see the value of pockets.
Most Andalites keep their arms close to their chest (T-Rex style) and their tails curled up to their backs. Visser 3 keeps his arms away from his body and his tail swinging low to the ground, like a Hork-Bajir. He does this first out of habit, having had mostly Hork-Bajir hosts, but he keeps doing it to torment Alloran and keep him submissive.
The more time you spend in a morph the more that morphs mannerisms bleed into your own. Near the end Rachel starts lumbering like a bear, Marco beats his chest, Jake will pace like a caged tiger, and Cassie will occasionally whine like a wolf, when human Tobias will stare at you and preen his hair.
Ax will have a weird relationship with the previous point. He develops human mannerisms when an Andalite but shows Andalite mannerisms when he's human. He can never seem to get it quite right.
Human controllers smile just a little too much. They also sometimes get distracted by sensory things. They'll stare at the way light refracts off a window pane, or subconsciously rub their hand against an interesting texture. They play music a little too loud, and tend to drown their food in hot sauce.
Whenever we see the Chee without their holograms, we see markings and old stickers all over their bodies. Like a child drew all over them.
The Chee will always introduce you to whatever dog is near by but that gets weird because....
The Chee give their dogs the wildest names because they've been naming dogs for millennia and they're not going to reuse names so with a very serious face they'll introduce you to The Throgolizer, Space Cadet Cheeseburger, and the Right Goodly Lord Paphershinerpeppinpeppershireson.
The free Hork-Bajir get it in their heads that if they're on earth they need to adopt earth culture. First they start wearing clothes. They get a bunch of stuff from a thrift store dumpster but do not understand how clothes work. Like not at all. They wear pants as hats and like to put shoes on their blades. Toby is the only one who understands fashion. She's adopted a sort of hip-hop bad girl style that leaves Rachel conflicted.
Ax fixed up an old TV for the free Hork-Bajir and that's where they get most of their understanding of earth culture. Because of this a lot of them will misquote pop culture stuff and they have started screaming whenever someone enters a room (they're still working on understanding the subtle differences between screaming and applause). They're big fans of Seinfeld, even though they don't understand any of it.
Toby has been experimenting with breakdancing in her free time. Her handle is T-body and she keeps getting her blades stuck to the floor.

Link Click Musical clips list pt.2. (pt.1, pt.3, pt.4, pt.5, pt.6, pt.7 here)
guess who finally learned to navigate bilibili? me. which means i can finally start tracking down moments/clips i (vaguely) remember but has since lost. yeay :D
starting with this beloved trilogy (yes, these are three consecutive Wang Minhui-Cai Qi performances):
23. 09/12/2023, Where Wang Minhui pushes Cai Qi off the table,
24. 10/12/2023, Cai Qi retaliates,
25. 20/12/2023, and finally they both try to push the other off the table only to fail, mess up the rock paper scissors, and can't stop laughing.
And others like,
26. 02/12/2023, bonus to the trilogy above where Cai Qi fell off on his own for no reason.
27. 29/01/2024, Cao Muzhi's birthday, which has so many good moments from him breakdancing(?) to fighting over the mic until both Zhu Hanbin and Xian Dongyue fell from the table, and Cao Muzhi sang the wrong lyrics and confuses Zhu Hanbin (for more context, check out shimmeringweeds reply! thank you!).
28. 29/01/2024 bonus, Cao Muzhi try to math how to cut cake 16 ways. Zhi Bowen suggested cutting 8 slices then cutting it horizontally lol.
29. 31/01/2024, Zhu Hanbin gets his revenge(5) and slaps Ding Xingchen's ass, tbh in general he was pretty aggressive/energetic this performance
30. 08/01/2024, a pretty chaotic and fun one of Bai Zhuoming, Wu Yihan, and Qian Anqi. Voice cracks, giggles, missed lyric, false steps, we gottem all. Even Zhu Jiayan and Zhang Jiahao were cracking. Highly recommend.
31. 10/12/2023 night, thank you shimmeringweeds for finding this clip. Du Guangyi poisoning someone (Teng Chunpeng) for the first time. Bonus for Deng Xianling sitting up in concern and offering Du Guangyi something to drink too. (Also, double failed hearts and singing the last line of guiding light together!)
32. 05/01/2024, Smol Rongbo!!! And Wang Minhui (for there to be smol there gotta also be big) some other stuff also happens like Xian Dongyue aggresively pushing Shu Rongbo's legs off hers.
33. Wang Minhui's 5 minutes vlog, we got glimpses of other scenes, the cast messing around, a tour(?) of the set, and snippets of other songs.
34. 07/01/2024 day, short one of sulky Wang Minhui, very cute 8:)
35. 23/11/2023, Overall, pretty tamed performance but the curtain call? Really chaotic. Wang Minhui messed up Director Li Haolin's name, which I realized is even funnier bcs right before that he messed up Guo Zhenyan's name and Cai Qi gotta intervene. Man cannot focus lol.
yea I waited until we got a clip of this livestream to post this pt.2
36. Faith of Friendship, <- Official, here's a subbed ver. Cai Qi and Wang Minhui did a good job, singing about their first meeting and basketball. The choreo is also really cool and the song too. Got sad when you remember Wang Minhui once said his Lu Guang has witnessed Cheng Xiaoshi's death.
37. Words Can't Convey My Love, this!!! Shu Rongbo as Chen Xiao being absolutely flustered, (trying) and failing to confess to his crush is so cutee with Wu Yihan trying to wingman in the background. The ending is so funny too lol, with Shu Rongbo running away and Wu Yihan shouting at him. The song is good, the choreo is good, Shu Rongbo's voice is also really good.
Nothing related to Link Click but I went on a Wu Yihan binge so have this bonus clip of him being cute in the Love Musical
Enjoy and byee. pt.3 in end of march? mid march? whenever I got a long list of clips I like. Definitely gonna put a 10/03/2024 clip in pt.3 bcs Shu Rongbo and Wu Yihan bday, and also 11/03/2024 bcs Teng Chunpeng bday.
#link click#link click musical#cai qi#wang minhui#cao muzhi#zhu hanbin#xian dongyue#zhi bowen#ding xingchen#bai zhuoming#wu yihan#qian anqi#zhu jiayan#zhang jiahao#du guangyi#teng chunpeng#deng xianling#shu rongbo#guo zhenyan#lc musical list

OK KIYORA NOTES!!! These are all from the game I kinda wrote them summary/LN style because the act of typing it all out in dialogue format takes me like three times the time to type out and I got lazy oops
Anyways lmk if anything’s unclear! I basically broke it down into some main themes I noticed
- Karasu anon
Breakdancing: He really likes breakdancing, both Otoya and Bachira end up asking him to teach them, to which he essentially says yes but that he doesn’t really know how to teach and kinda just tells them to try and copy his moves
Otoya interaction: Kiyora originally says he doesn’t mind teaching but questions if Otoya can keep up. After Otoya restates that he’s a ninja descendant Kiyora seems to acknowledge him more
Bachira interaction: He asks to be taught thinking that it “seems fun” to which Kiyora replied with “not just seems fun. It IS fun”, Bachira also does it wrong (aka just tries following along bachira style) but Kiyora still acknowledges his potential
Player interaction: mid training, he asks the player if it’d be ok to integrate dancing into his training regimen. Player agrees but asks why. He explains that before coming to bllk he’d always participate in dance battles and liked dancing. When the player responds saying how they know of dance battles Kiyora immediately goes “oh nice let’s have a dance battle now then” to which player has to say “I know OF them not how to actually dance…” to which he says “oh well, can’t be helped if you don’t know how”
Voiceline: …my interests? Break dancing. Lets go (dancing/dance battling)
Karasu “rivalry”: He seems to have a sort of one sided rivalry with Karasu, constantly irked by Karasu underestimating him.
Interaction: Karasu acknowledges Kiyoras vision and borderline detection, essentially praising him for surviving in blue lock but still comments on kiyoras complacency and how Kiyora can’t survive just by riding on others’ success (probably referring to the second selection team). Kiyora responds by telling Karasu not to underestimate him
Voiceline: Karasu treating me like an idiot seriously pisses me off. I’ll crush him someday.
Nagi rivalry: Another rivalry although less one sided. Pretty obviously inspired/taken by their first meeting in epinagi
Interaction: similar scenario where they both end up reserving the same practice room but they actually did reserve the same room so instead they end up “battling” each other to win the room (even though they could share, they want the stakes present to motivate the match). Kiyora continuously refers to Nagi as “tall white”/“white beanpole” and Nagi continues calling Kiyora “chibi”
Voiceline: …I have some free time now. Maybe I’ll go challenge that white beanpole to a battle.
Height and underestimation: Is very aware that he is short and doesn’t like being underestimated because of it
Voiceline: Just now, you were thinking that I’m a shrimp weren’t you? Save the excuses, square up/let’s go.
Voiceline: Crushing those who underestimate me is the best, gets me hyped
Player interaction: Player approaches Kiyora after practice saying that they wanted to adjust some of the practice regimen after observing kiyora. They say they want to try hyping him up against strong opponents and suggests he play some one on ones. Kiyora is surprised at how well the players thoughts align with his own. He accepts saying there’s no reason to turn down a strong opponent, and that most of the bllkers underestimate him because of his height, so crushing them would be like fulfilling his wishes.
Player interaction: The player complements his weapon of shitting a low trajectory shot with a tight spin and that it’s even more impressive up close. Kiyora responds by asking if it’s amazing just because he’s “a pipsqueakl. Player denies this saying they were just admiring his shooting technique and that it has nothing to do with him being short. Player asked what he’d do if that was the case, to which he says “don’t underestimate me, I’ll crush you”. The player then thinks internally that they should be careful not to be too conscious of his short height.
Misc. voicelines and etc.:
“I’m the one who decides the battles on the borderline.”
“Aight, Ai-ght, etc.” many variations of “aight”
Player interaction: Kiyora starts to have doubts about if the player is actually capable of making him number one, so he wants to see for himself if he should continue following their plans or if he should drop them. Player thinks it’s naturally since they’re a soccer noob and asks what they should do. Kiyora tells them to continue as they’ve been doing for one week. In that time, he’ll follow along and if they plan something that he acknowledges he’ll continue working with them. Kiyora says that this is their borderline. If they want to continue working with Kiyora, they need to prove it and go beyond the borderline he’s defined.
Player interaction/assessment of Kiyora: Kiyora’s grounder techniques (wtv those are) are top class within bllk. Within those skills are his passes and gameplay senses. He’s able to take advantage of the large range of the field, cutting in and passing and shooting as needed. Those are the weapons that have helped Kiyora survive. Developing his dribbling skills and the ability to move around more himself is the best option for him to improve.
He’s stated that he also got into soccer because his older brother would force him to play with him, and if he lost he’d face a punishment so that was his motivation to improve LMAO
Generally he’s quite spunky, but mainly on the basis of not wanting to be underestimated due to his height. Also has a strong sense of self and ofc has the whole borderline thing going on where he enjoys being the deciding factor of things. I’ll come back with more updates if I see more interesting voicelines LOL
THANK YOUUU i think i actually did a fairly decent job at getting him!! hehe i already finished the one shot before you posted this but in the fic he’s kinda moody emo but also kinda cutie pie?? I GOT HIS OLDER BROTHER BEING THE ONE TO GET HIM INTO SOCCER OMG so proud…also got the height thing…his borderline thing ofc…his dancing is briefly hinted at towards the end but eh good enough for me!! in the au i wrote for he’s kinda uh violent (he used to be a street fighter because his older brother got him into it for the money but then he quit because he didn’t rlly like it) but it’s not like crazy or with people that don’t deserve it so hopefully it doesn’t feel ooc?? idk we’ll see…to be honest the place i ended the one shot at is definitely one that requires a part two for any elaboration/further characterization but considering idek if the anon will like the au i just left it there and i’ll add that i’m more than happy to do a pt2 if anyone’s interested but i didn’t want to waste my time if not 😭
also wait the one sided karasu beef is so funny LMAOAOA new sibling duo unlocked ⁉️ it’s giving roderick and greg from diary of a wimpy kid somehow 😭 the way kiyora fucking hates him and karasu just does not gaf…😓 that also makes that panel in bm vs pxg where it looks like karasu is using kiyora as a chair sm worse FJSLDJSJ that was probably kiyora’s thirteenth reason omg
