JJK OLYMPICS OHHH YOURE A GENIUS
head spinning w sooooooo many athlete aus rn…..
satoru honestly isn’t half as cocky as the media makes him out to be but he could be because you bring up world champion men’s freestyle swim times and it’s his name on the scoreboard ten times before someone else shows up. he’s faster than himself by fifteen seconds all around, he’s earned a bit of cockiness. mentioned in the last post that whenever he’s at a competition and he finishes a race, he looks at the camera and signs a little infinity sign and then blows a kiss to you. some bitter old coach always calls him out on it, and gets him fined for unsportsmanlike conduct, and he’s happy to pay the fees if it means getting a message home to you, but eventually you two come up with a new code; and at his next race, he places gold, turns to the camera, crosses his middle finger over his pointer finger and smiles. when he’s in his post-race interview, he makes sure to explain that he does it for you with the widest smile on his face.
megumi nepotism baby but not in the same sport. toji was a multi gold medalist back in his heyday for shooting, so it’s not really a surprise to anybody that megumi has scary good aim, but he takes to archery instead of shooting. actually the idea of megumi being an emo little kid and throwing rocks at a tree when his dad pissed him off his hilarious, and even funnier is toji watching him, slightly amused and a little scared because megumi is maybe six and hitting the exact same spot every single time. he grows to be very blase about it—it’s more of a release/hobby for him that he happens to be really good at, and well, now good enough to earn a few olympic medals. megumi is not a fan of having his dad ruffle his hair on international television after he’s won, but he supposes it can’t be helped.
i don’t know where to put yuuta…. tennis…. tempting….. him in his little white shorts…. little grunts after he serves…. cries….. a complete 180 in his personality when he’s playing vs doing anything else. so charming and sweet and kinda shy when he’s being interviewed, and the second he steps on the court his eyes are so cold it’s scary…. need him… extremely nerdy about his rackets, and shoes, and clothes, and rambles to you about aerodynamics and posture and torque whenever you ask him to teach you, and you always have to shutup him up with a kiss and remind him that yeah you sort of want to learn to play tennis for him, but mostly you came bc he looks hot doing it. once he got asked in an interview if he ever thinks about you while he’s playing and his response was very concise, “no, never. it would be a big distraction,” and did not realize the implications of his heavily televised words.
also…. not to make this post 40% yuuta but we could pull from canon a bit and make his sport fencing. he doesn’t excel because he’s the strongest, it’s because he’s learned to treat the sword as an extension of himself and a good strategist… also because i like the image of him pulling the helmet/mask off and shaking his hair out………..
don’t even know where to put yuuji…. volleyball? basketball? track and field??? the irony of him easily being the most athletic but canonically does not want to play sports 😭 but i can see him playing a sport because someone scouts him and it turns out to be a way to make steady money to support himself and his grandpa :( by the time he’s qualified and made it to the olympics, wasuke is doing much better (thanks to yuuji having landed some preemptive sponsorships and being able to afford better medical care), but not so well enough that he can travel across the world to watch yuuji play. wasuke tells you that you should travel and be with yuuji, but yuuji is so touched by the idea that you would stay with his grandpa and be by his side when he’s away :(( he wins gold, of course, and he doesn’t even wait until the closing ceremony—which, he’d mentioned in all of his interviews, so nobody can be too upset. he’s on record saying, “i’m excited to play, but i’m even happier to be going home. my girlfriend and my grandpa are watching me and i miss them!” several times— he’s on the first flight home with flowers, and tears in his eyes. puts his gold medal on his grandpa’s neck as a thank you, and spends probably thirty minutes straight hugging you and kissing you and honestly don’t put it past him to propose now that he’s got nike ambassador money
nanami started judo as a way to relieve the stress of his overbearing job, and someone at the gym/training center notices he seems to be a natural despite being a beginner. he starts to draw a crowd, which annoys him at first because the point of judo was discipline and release from having to deal with too many people at his office job, but nanami supposes he can’t be too mad when you introduce yourself as a talent scout and offer him professional training. there’s irony in him accepting your offer, because it was definitely not based in professionalism at all… quitting his job as a salaryman to become a professional athlete in his mid-twenties was not on his bingo chart, but if it means he will have met you, then so be it. you’re with him all the way, through his training, competitions, world championships, qualifiers, all the way until he’s on the podium. you’re the first to congratulate him, but he interjects by telling you he’s quitting. you ask him why—he just won at the olympics for crying out loud, but nanami just shakes his head, puts down his flowers and his medal so his hands are free to hold your face and tell you, “it would be unethical to kiss my manager, so i am quitting.” (later, when everything is said and done, and you two are cuddling, you mention to him that he could just hire a new manager, and not quit his new career, to which he blushes because yeah… that’s probably more rational, but rational was not in his train of thought at the time)

Speaking of Namari and her workwife (platonic, besties) we don't discuss enough what this would mean for their dynamic in a modern setting:
Obviously Ryoko Kui is a Long Hair!Toshiro truther since we also have this comic:
So I can only imagine that Toshiro either lets his hair grow once he's living alone for college OR he somehow managed to grow his hair while living under Maizuru's influence, but at one point in the middle of college she managed to get him to grow it out — way more unlikely, BUT funnier, because like.
Imagine you're Namari. And your dad is an asshole who left you with absurd amounts of debt. One day you're strolling in campus when, fuck, wait, IS THAT MY FUCKING DAD???
So you run up to him and you grab him roughly, you don't even know what you're gonna say — Except you hear "Namari!?" and you blink and... Wait, what the hell, Toshiro?
It's the introvert you adopted, stunned and a bit terrified of you.
And now you both have to cope with the knowledge that he resembles your dad badly enough to be confused with him (the daddy issues / empathy for your besties' daddy issues bcs you have daddy issues of your own go wild here). Toshiro buys a wig, probably.
Or, or, I guess the other option is exactly that ^^^ but that's actually just their first meeting? They don't know each other. Namari just fully manhandled an exchange student that's now petrified and visibly scared of her.
So she tries to make it up by apologising, explaining what happened (no details but Toshiro empathises immediately) and inviting him to grab a beer to make it even, unknowingly changing his life (referencing the fact that Toshiro in the canon verse likes foreign beers which is 100% Namari's fault you can't convince me otherwise).
After that rough start they hit it off quickly and the interaction ends up being the extra little push that Toshiro needed to realize his lifelong dream of letting his hair grow.
Thank you Namari for your service.
EDIT: this stupid little imagine got some art by the super amazing DropOfSoup!!! HERE

i'm kinda really in love with the idea that if miles realizes something off about his gender identity, it's gonna be when hes around his late 30s to even early 50s honestly it will take him a while. he's the embodiment of this tweet
which will probably prove my point of him realizing stuff like that post soj or something, AND I'M ALL FOR IT!
i really like applying this to transfem miles the most cuz she'd have a realization from the most mundane of moments and spend like an entire week at the very least thinking of a new name she'd go by and it's all really beautiful old fashioned names and she spends all night researching about hormones and transitioning on top of finishing all her paperwork and when she finally starts... you know, transitioning and wearing more stuff that she actively likes she gets really gender euphoric and like. Yeah i love you (reads notes) Matilda Edgeworth it's always never too late to realize your identity queen

getting absolutely decimated in the best warden for anders poll for the hilarity of queen cousland having an affair with anders of all people. I made this canon in my world state solely because of king alistair in da2s dialogue for political marriage cousland suggesting that he really does not like her at all. and also him and anders "didn't you used to be a warden?" "didn't you?" ass exchange. Send tweet
as a setup a little heterosexual for me but funny enough that i'm still into it. hope varric writes a book abt it and gets promptly banned from ferelden

presently losing my mind a tad at the visual of lawrence's perfectly cyclical return to the bathroom trap, looking down upon hoffman, the failed discipline he's caged, like some sort of shadowy limb of god ejecting the fallen angel from his kingdom for his hubris, but in the same motion looking back to where he began. he leans onto his cane and coldly meets the wrathful gaze of the beast he has locked in, but in doing so must also feel the weeping gaze of a man he left behind. do you feel the weight of adam's judgment around your neck, dr gordon? it had to be this place. he always had to come back. i'll come back for you. and now he has, a promise technically kept. though adam has never been allowed to leave, all this time, always left behind. he, much like lawrence, has seen everything. but he turned the lights out on him. it's fucking biblical mate *gnawing on arm commences*
