34 for the spotify wrapped thing!! (whatever ship you want)
34. "no body, no crime" by Taylor Swift (feat. HAIM)
Let's be honest, we all knew this was going to be E/R.
Decided to go a very literal route with this one. Canon Era, on the barricade. CW: referenced canonical character death.
Feuilly sat with his back propped against the barricade, his gun laid across his knee. Courfeyrac paused in his careful scan of the horizon to frown down at him from his vantage point. “Sleep,” he scolded gently. “The People will need you at full strength come the morning.”
Though Feuilly managed a tight smile in response, he knew that no sleep would come, least of all because he knew that not even every man on the barricade being at full strength would be enough come morning.
Still, he knew that his own inability to sleep would inevitably distract Courfeyrac, who would be incapable of stopping himself from japing or trying to keep him amused at the expense of the job he was meant to be doing, and just when Feuilly had resolved to close his eyes and appear to sleep, he heard a curious scraping sound, as if something heavy was being dragged across the stone of the street.
Most curious of all, the sound did not come from the National Guard, huddled down for the night. Instead, it came from behind the barricade.
Feuilly looked again at Courfeyrac, who was frowning. “I hear it, too,” Courfeyrac told him, and Feuilly nodded, resolved.
“I shall investigate,” he said. “And report back if needed.”
Courfeyrac jerked a nod, his expression troubled, and Feuilly squared his shoulders before standing, gun in hand as he crept away from the barricade and toward the noise emanating from the darkness. He braced himself against the corner of a building and peered around, squirting against the darkness to try to make out the large, strange shape he could just see.
He raised his gun to aim it at the figure. “Halt,” he commanded, “in the name of the Republic.”
The figure paused but then continued its lumbering movements, and Feuilly scowled, stepping fully around the corner. “I said—” he repeated, breaking off when the figure half-turned to face him and for the first time, he caught sight of his face. “Grantaire?”
It was Grantaire, but Grantaire as Feuilly had never seen him, and not just because he was dragging what appeared to be a body down the road. Grantaire’s expression was haunted, his eyes wide and wild, and only when he stumbled slightly in his step did Feuilly realize that Grantaire was obviously still drunk.
Then Grantaire spoke, and all but confirmed it. “Ah, Feuilly,” Grantaire said, tripping over the familiar syllables in such a way that Feuilly marveled the man was able to stand upright, let alone drag a corpse down the street. “How does your evening fare?”
Feuilly ignored the question, certain that Grantaire would neither remember nor care about his answer. Instead, he frowned down at the body he was dragging, his eyes widening when he recognized it as the murderer Enjolras had shot earlier. “What are you doing?” he asked, his voice sharper than intended.
“Corpus delicti,” Grantaire grunted, and Feuilly’s frown deepened.
“You know that I am not trained in the law as some of our brethren, but—”
“If there is no body, then a crime cannot be proven to have been committed,” Grantaire told him, with the kind of clarity of conviction only a drunkard could possess.
If Feuilly was merely confused before, now he was much closer to baffled. “I reject your premise that there was any crime,” he said, his voice low. “It was a just death. The man was a murderer.”
Grantaire shook his head. “And to punish him for his crime, Enjolras must too become a murderer,” he muttered.
Feuilly bristled, his loyalty to Enjolras outweighing whatever pity he had for Grantaire. “Listen here, Wine Cask—” he started, but Grantaire ignored him, still muttering to himself as if Feuilly had not even spoken.
“In war, one might say that all deaths are just deaths, if, at the least, the war itself is just. Jus ad bellum, jus in bello. And perhaps even at the hands of the Republic, following the laws as determined by the People, so too might there be a just death. But an unarmed man, no matter what crimes he has committed – how can we consider that just?”
“Such belated conviction, Feuilly said scornfully. “Revolution has made murderers of us all.” He paused. “Save for you, of course. I suspect the only blood you shall find on your hands at the end of this will be your own.”
Grantaire looked at him, his expression suddenly sober. “For him, I would have,” he uttered gravely, and it took Feuilly a moment to place his meaning.
“Surely you don’t mean—”
Grantaire jerked his shoulders in a shrug without lessening his grip on Le Cabuc’s corpse. “Better by far for this man’s blood to be on my hands than on his.”
Feuilly swallowed against the cold conviction in Grantaire’s tone. “Enjolras would not want that,” he said.
A horrible smile spread across Grantaire’s face. “And since when have I cared what Enjolras would want?” he sneered, though his sneer froze in place as he stared at something over Feuilly’s shoulder.
Even without turning, Feuilly knew who it must be, knew who else would be roused by this conversation, and he acknowledged Enjolras when a nod when he felt the man briefly touch his shoulder. “Return to your rest,” Enjolras ordered quietly, and Feuilly hesitated. “This is a conversation best had with just the two of us.”
Though Feuilly again nodded and stepped away, he found he could not force his feet to return to the barricade. Instead, he ducked around the corner, close enough still to observe as Enjolras approached Grantaire, his back straight and his shoulders set.
“Leave him,” Enjolras said quietly, in a tone that brooked no argument. “It is over.”
For the first time, Grantaire released Le Cabuc, dropping his body and straightening to meet Enjolras’s eye, his horrible smile for before long gone. “You commanded before that I not disgrace the barricade,” he said, his voice a broken whisper that Feuilly had to strain to hear. “Leaving him would.”
Enjolras swallowed. “So you think it a disgrace, then?” he asked. “What I did?” Grantaire did not answer and Enjolras was a silent for a moment before saying, tired more than anything else, “So be it. I have told you before, many times over, I am but human.”
“And never have I doubted it,” Grantaire told him quietly. “But I could not bear if this man’s corpse ended up buried with Jean Prouvaire, or any of our friends who may still fall.”
Enjolras winced at the mention of Prouvaire. “Who told you?” he asked, and Grantaire lifted one shoulder in a sort of half-shrug.
“My slumber was not absolute.”
Something flickered on Enjolras’s face. “Grantaire—”
“Please.” Grantaire’s voice was soft, but determined. “I have failed you so many times, in so many ways. Let me at the least do this, so that when you too are cut down, you might not go to eternity thinking that I did nothing for the Cause.”
There was a brief pause before Enjolras repeated, “For the Cause?”
Another brief pause, then— “For you,” Grantaire whispered.
Enjolras shook his head. “I have asked nothing of you,” he said, his voice low and strangely urgent, as if he sought to convince Grantaire of the same. “Nothing – save that you leave.”
Grantaire bowed his head. “And in that, too, I have failed you.”
“You need not fail in that,” Enjolras said, and Grantaire lifted his head, searching Enjolras’s expression. “If you are taking that body from the barricade, you need not return.”
Grantaire smiled again, but it was a soft sort of smile this time, nothing like the grotesque facsimile he had worn earlier. “You know that I must,” he said gently.
Enjolras did – Feuilly could see his resignation in every line of his body. And still, Enjolras asked, “Why?”
Grantaire shrugged, something almost helpless in the gesture. “For the same reason that I must remove this corpse.”
It was Enjolras’s turn to bow his head. “I have not asked this of you,” he said, his voice low.
Grantaire shrugged once more. “Some things are offered freely.”
“And if I refuse?” Enjolras asked sharply.
Grantaire’s smile widened. “It would hardly be the first time you have refused me.”
Something like a smile tugged at the corner of Enjolras’s lips. “And yet still, here you are.”
“Here I am.”
Grantaire said the three words simply, plainly, and Feuilly could not help but feel that they were substitutes for three other words that Grantaire would much rather say. He suspected Enjolras knew it too, and was unsurprised when Enjolras sighed, resigned. “Then I shall wash my hands of it. Do as you must.”
“I shall,” Grantaire said.
He turned to take up his burden once more, to continue his plodding journey into the night, but Enjolras caught his hand. “Grantaire—” Enjolras’s voice trembled, just slightly. “Fail me once more.”
Grantaire’s voice was impossibly gentle when he responded, like the caress of a lover instead of a broken whisper amongst the wreckage of dreams. “I always do.”
He twisted his wrist to raise Enjolras’s hand to his lips, bestowing a fleet kiss against the pale knuckles, the gesture more tender than any Feuilly thought he had witnessed.
Feuilly knew that he could not bear to see anymore, and so finally followed Enjolras’s command, retracing his steps back to the barricade. Courfeyrac tensed when he spotted the movement, relaxing only slightly when he saw it was Feuilly. “Well?” he asked, his call quiet so as to not disturb the rest of the men. “What was it?”
“Nothing,” Feuilly told him, knowing in his heart that he would never speak a word of what he had witnessed, and he settled down again in his spot from before, resting his back against the barricade and closing his eyes before adding, more to himself than to Courfeyrac, “Just someone saying their goodbyes.”

✒️ or 🕰 !!
Book-Inspired CAS Meme - accepting!
✒️ : Create a Sim based on a classic book you’ve read. + 🕰 : Create a Sim based on a historical fiction book you’ve read.
Covered both prompts in one by doing one of my favorite books, which I read for the first time last year, The Color Purple by Alice Walker, which spans from the 1900s to the 1930s. I couldn't just do one, so I made the protagonist, Celie Harris, and her husband's lover-turned-love interest, jazz singer Shug Avery. Shug's outfit is inspired by one of her outfits in the 1985 movie.
Celie: hair / face overlay (decades) / lipstick / blouse / pants
Shug: headband / hair / gray hair overlay / lipstick / necklace / dress (the flapper) / gloves / shoes
#ant-inous#book inspired CAS meme#love this book... maybe i'll make Nettie someday#1920s#1930s#answered

Day 5 Miss Your Voice
SONG FIC
EL SILENCIO DE TU AMOR
— ¿Vals? ¿Qué es eso? -
— Es un baile que los humanos realizan cuando están celebrando, es un movimiento lento… ¿Quieres intentarlo? -
.
.
.
Siempre procuro sonreír y decir que estoy bien pero este con quien esté hay algo que me falta.
El tiempo no perdona, pasan los días sin clemencia, su rostro a pesar de colocar una sonrisa no puede ocultar la tristeza que la ha embargado desde entonces. Sus amigos se preguntan si sus días bajo el encierro de los Espadas afectó tanto a su compañera y amiga de batallas, desde que regresaron de ese árido lugar, no ha sido la misma, más de una vez trataron de hacerla hablar, esperando que confiara en ellos y les dijera cuál era el motivo de su estado.
Los Shinigamis tampoco se quedaron atrás, estaban al igual que el resto preocupados por ella, no salía a la hora del receso, no tenía sus típicas platicas, sus sonrisas eran más apagadas y se le veía una mirada distante, sin brillo sin vida.
— Me preocupa Inoue, acaso les ha dicho algo? - pregunto la pequeña chica de cabellos negros.
— Ese es el problema, no ha dicho nada, ya pasaron semanas de eso -
— y tu Ichigo, algo que sepas? O no recuerdas nada? -
El mencionado igual estaba desconcertado, no dijo nada, lo que si en ese momento recordó lo que pasó, la batalla, los gritos, el poder aterrador de su enemigo, así como el tiempo que duró inconsciente dentro del cuerpo de aquel Hollow despiadado y sin razonamiento.
— Creo… creo que hay algo -
Todos se le quedaron viendo muy atentamente esperando que hablara.
Ichigo relato lo poco que recordaba de su batalla, las partes que no lograba distinguir bien le ayudaba Ishida, pero así como él, también había quedado inconsciente debido a la sangre que había perdido por su brazo el cual arrancó el Espada durante su combate, así también cuando Ichigo en su modo Hollow clavo en su abdomen su Zanpakuto.
Sé que no vas a venir hasta aquí en este momento miré la luna por mi ventana abierta el canto de los grillos me hace sentir aún más sola por eso, los sentimientos que estoy conteniendo se ponen a hacer ruido de nuevo
— No puedo más… este dolor me está matando por dentro… - sus lágrimas no dejaban de rodar por sus mejillas, abrazando sus piernas mientras veía por la ventana aquella luna menguante que se alzaba en la oscuridad de la noche, sola y sin estrellas, solo le recordaron una vez más su tiempo en Las Noches.
— ¿Por qué tuviste que dejarme? Porque no tuve la fuerza suficiente para lograr salvarte… no sabes cuánto me duele, cuánto lamento, y cuanto me destruye está angustia, sigo pensando que si no hubiese sido por mi, aún estarías aquí … quiero olvidar esa noche que te perdí, quiero olvidarlo todo…- hablaba mientras veía en sus manos aquella pulsera, el único recuerdo de la existencia de él…
— No por favor… no!!!! Ulquiorra ya no sigas con esto! - gritaba con todas sus fuerzas, esperanzada que él la escuchará.
El Hollow o en lo que se había convertido Ichigo usando su Zanpakuto con una fuerza descomunal, logró atravesar el hierro de su adversario, dando como resultado su inminente victoria ante su enemigo. Pero aún cuando se pensaba que terminaría ahí, este continúo, género un cero con una enorme potencia para dejar en lo más mínimo algún aliento de vida que pudiese aún tener su enemigo, El Cuarta Espada Ulquiorra Cifer.
Inesperadamente el Hollow estaba por acabar con sus amigos, otra gama de energía estaba reuniendo para pronto lanzarla contra ella y contra su amigo Quincy. Ni ella ni él tenían la fuerza necesaria para combatir semejante poder, solo quedaba esperar ese malogrado final. Cuando pensaron que sería su exterminio total en ese lugar, se sorprendieron al ver a su enemigo o al menos solo su torso usando su técnica para cortar el cuerno de Ichigo y con eso lograr romper su máscara.
Orihime al ver cómo Ulquiorra caía sin fuerzas a tierra, brotando sangre de sus heridas profundas, su regeneración no había sido suficiente para contrarrestar todo el daño recibido.
— Ulquiorra!!! - grito desesperada, llegó a su lado y colocó la cabeza del mencionado en su regazo, gruesas lágrimas bajaban por sus mejillas, estaba asustada, estaba aterrada, no quería perderlo, no quería dejarlo ir…. — ¿Qué hago? Dime qué hago por favor?! - le hablo desesperada tomó la mano del joven, extendió sus adas para lograr formar una barrera y tratar de sanarlo, pero sin la energía suficiente, y con todas sus fuerzas exhaustas no pudo mantener el escudo y este se quebró, dejando solamente ver mil luces centelleantes — No! -
Ulquiorra con las pocas fuerzas que le quedaban llamó su atención, seco un par de lágrimas de ella — No …. Llores … - dijo…
— Por favor no hables … debo encontrar la manera de sanarte… por favor guarda tus energías - sus ojos se ampliaron cuando se dió cuenta que estaba comenzando a desintegrarse, se estaba volviendo polvo.
— Orihime… no puedes hacer nada… mis órganos internos ya no existen, no puedo regenerarlos…. Mis fuerzas ya se agotaron…. Voy a morir aquí… al final es el pago de mi pecado… te secuestre y traje a este lugar, te hice daño, y trate de matar a tus amigos…. Es justo que pague - mientras hablaba ella negaba con vehemencia.
— Sabes que no es así … por favor no me dejes sola… -
— Lo lamento… mi corazón queda en tus manos…. Te amo Orihime Inoue -
Y con ello lo último que quedaba de él se convirtió en polvo que se llevó el viento, dejando un Corazón destrozado, llorando con impotencia el haber perdido a la persona más importante para ella.
En las noches que sufro por querer verte siento que voy a explotar así se siente cuando te enamoras de alguien quiero que estés a mi lado.
— No puedo olvidarte,no quiero hacerlo… pero ya no puedo más… es una tortura no tenerte a mi lado, recuerdo cada cosa que hicimos desde que nos conocimos, a pesar de tu trato tosco al inicio, luego fuiste comprendiendo lo que estábamos teniendo… recuerdo todo y me duele! -
Orihime había perdido no solo su corazón, sino también su alma, estaba demasiado rota por dentro, lo más importante que había encontrado lo había perdido sin poder hacer algo.
Ella se había enamorado perdidamente de él, en tan pocas semanas dentro de aquel lugar, había sido suficiente para enamorarse del Espada, pero no pasaron las cosas de inmediato, sino que cada acto fue agregando valor a su relación, comenzado como guardián y cautiva, a una especie de compañeros de misión hasta finalizar en algo más…. cada vez que llegaba a visitarla a su cuarto, las horas que le dedicaba, escuchar cada palabra que decía, aun cuando no era su obligación, siempre estuvo ahí para ella, siempre…
Con el tiempo aquellos monosílabos que antes salían de sus labios, se convirtieron en charlas más largas y amenas, la curiosidad de él era inmensa, y ella le alegraba saber que podría satisfacerla con sus explicaciones, por más incoherentes que parecieran al Espada…
No,no es eso lo que quiero decir me siento tan frustrada, por no poder ser sincera.
— Te extraño tanto… te extraño demasiado… - se abrazó a sí misma, hablaba al silencio de aquella casa, antes lo llamaba hogar, pero ahora era su propia prisión, una donde se encontraba completamente sola, sin visitas, sin nadie que estuviera ahí para ella para aplacar esa soledad, ese silencio ensordecedor.
Recordó una de las ocasiones que hablando con él había comentado todo tipos de celebraciones en el mundo humano, y preguntó si había algo similar en Las Noches a pesar que sabía la respuesta, pero le gustaba escucharle decirlas.
Aquellos paseos en las dunas de Hueco Mundo, eran preciosas, a pesar del panorama a su alrededor, ese místico lugar le pareció hermoso, esa luna siempre menguante, aquel cielo nocturno sin ninguna estrella… y la compañía del pelinegro hacían de un paseo una hermosa velada. Al comienzo había un poco de vergüenza más por parte de ella claramente, con el tiempo ambos salían tomados de las manos, incluso para Aizen quien tenía todo un plan con ella, decidió dejarlo de lado para que ella pudiese estar más tiempo con él.
No era solo su compañía, ella le entregó todo, y él también a ella... se entregaron juntos y fueron marcados a fuego en su cuerpo, su mente, su alma y Corazón…
— Extraño tanto escuchar tu voz… -
Date cuenta, ¿no ves que me siento sola? Exagero haciéndome la fuerte y nada marcha bien
— ¡Inoue!! - escucho su nombre, al mirar a quien le llamaba noto al pelinaranja.
— Eh? - miró pero luego desvió la vista, simplemente no se sentía bien estar cerca de él, un temblor interno caló en sus huesos.
— Inoue, disculpa pero ¿puedo acompañarte a casa? - ella miró a todos lados, buscando al resto de sus amigos.
— Y los demás? … emmm… Rukia-san…. no irás con ella a casa… no regresan juntos? - preguntó mientras apretaba su mochila con sus manos. No quería aceptarlo pero estar junto a él, justo en ese momento, le estaba doliendo, su corazón ardía, quería salir corriendo, escapar, llegar a su casa, tumbarse en su cama y seguir llorando en su almohada.
— Emmm… No… ellos tenían algo que hacer… pero principalmente … podemos hablar?... -
Sin ánimos pero igualmente él era su amigo antes que nada y como tal, tenía que darle algo de tiempo — De acuerdo… -
— Gracias… -
Luego de caminar un largo rato, estaba. Por llegar al hogar de la joven, Ichigo se aventuró y le pidió acompañarla hacia el parque que estaba cerca.
— Inoue… quiero que me digas… - apretó sus manos — Hay algo malo conmigo? -
— ¿Qué? - lo miro sorprendida.
— Quiero decir… tú me has estado evitando, y no puedo seguir soportándolo -
—Yo… yo… - no supo qué decir, era cierto y no lo negaba, lo ha estado haciendo, desde que regresaron de Hueco Mundo, es que simplemente no puede verlo… él había terminado con el enemigo, él había acabado con el Espada… ¡él había asesinado a Ulquiorra!
Ichigo se acercó a ella aún más, tomó una de sus manos y con la otra la llevó al rostro de la joven, ella desconcertada no supo cómo reaccionar. — Acaso no estás notando lo que hago… lo que está pasando… - él puso un rostro dolido.
— ¿Qué?... ¿qué quieres decir?… ¿Qué haces? -
— Inoue, no te das cuenta que siempre te he tratado diferente de los demás…. no te das cuenta que … me gustas…te quiero… y que me duele tu alejamiento…-
¿gustar? ¿querer?
si solo hubiera una persona destinada a mi me gustaría que fueras tú nunca he amado a nadie,como te amo a ti Hey!quiero que veas lo que siento en verdad.
Sin más que hacer, él acercó su rostro y posó sus labios sobre los de ella, en un beso suave y lento…
Sin saber cómo reaccionar Orihime abrió sus ojos al asombro, sin corresponder… hace mucho se hubiese vuelto loca que él correspondiera sus sentimientos, ¿pero ahora? ahora que ya no tenía corazón, que lo perdió y desapareció junto a Ulquiorra en Hueco Mundo.
“Ulquiorra” pensó lágrimas comenzaron a bajar por su rostro, “esto no es lo que quiero…” “no puedo reemplazarte… no quiero hacerlo …”
Cuando Ichigo reaccionó, vio las lágrimas de ella y se dio cuenta del error que cometió — Inoue? -
Ella al no tener donde más correr, solo se aferró a él y lloró, desahogando su corazón, desbordando todo el sentimiento de tristeza que estaba acumulando.
— Llegue tarde, ¿no es verdad? - dijo él mientras acariciaba los cabellos de ella.
¿Con quién quieres estar? Me duele recordar tu espalda solitaria
Llegó a su apartamento y se derrumbó en su cama, ese beso no supo a nada, no había nada… ningún sentimiento, estaba vacío como ella, ahora era quien ocupaba el lugar de Ulquiorra… no tenía nada dentro de ella….
— ¡No es justo! Porque?! porque te fuiste?!... - seguía reclamando golpeando su almohada, vio la pulsera en la cómoda de su cama, la tomó y la observó por un largo rato, recordó cuando lo vio por primera vez, cuando le dio esa pulsera, y volvió a recordar todo su tiempo en Las Noches…
— Salvame de este dolor Ulquiorra…. por favor - susurro clemente.
en las noches que sufro por querer verte
siento que voy a explotar
— No puedo hacer nada Rukia…-
— Debes darle tiempo… no pretendas que corresponda justo ahora -
— Pero… pensé que… -
— Ichigo, no has escuchado que aquel lema no funciona en realidad “Un clavo saca a otro clavo” ella sintió algo profundo por el Espada, para nuestra pena así fue, no sabemos la historia, pero no puedes obligarla a que te vuelva a amar como al principio -
— Tienes razón… me disculpare con ella y le daré tiempo…-
—Así se hace Ichigo!, sabes tienes que aprender a entender mejor a las mujeres… no todas aceptaran a la primera este tipo de cosas -
— ¡Callate! recuerda que fue tu idea todo esto.
— Si… perdón por eso… -
.
.
.
.
La pelinaranja estaba dándose un baño, lavando su rastro de lágrimas… “Cuando podré dejar esto?, ya no tengo más lágrimas… ya no hay nada más en mi… me quede sin nada, estoy vacía… todos mis sentimientos se fueron contigo… ¡los quiero de regreso!” pensó mientras abrazaba sus piernas.
así se siente cuando te enamoras de alguien quiero que estés a mi lado nunca he amado a nadie,como te amo a ti
Un par de semanas después, durante la noche, a pesar de la brisa que ingresaba por la ventana, ella había caído rendida ante el sueño y cansancio, semana tras semana sentir esa desdicha no podía seguir haciéndolo más… tenía que comenzar a aceptar que todo había pasado y que todo ya había terminado…lo había estado pensando demasiado.
Dentro de aquella brisa, un halo tenue había ingresado a la habitación, la joven estaba profundamente dormida, aun con el rastro de lágrima cayendo sobre su rostro, la luz se acercó un poco más hasta lograr materializarse… quién podría imaginar que la tenue aura era lo que quedaba del espíritu de Ulquiorra, con sus manos intangibles logró limpiar unas cuantas gotas que caían de los ojos de ella.
Miro un rato a la chica, tan hermosa, tan perfecta, pero tan llena de dolor, arrugó un poco el ceño, eso no era lo que quería para ella.
Se acercó a su oído y solo unas pequeñas palabras era suficiente para pronunciar, ella tenía que encontrar el resto de las respuestas, pero principalmente, tenía que pasar la página, lo hecho hecho estaba, no había vuelta atrás, la rueca del tiempo tenía que seguir avanzando, y ella tenía que seguir adelante.
“Por el corazón… Deseo todo de ti… pero debes avanzar… en otra vida… te estaré esperando… no dudes… vuelve a vivir… vuelve a ser tu misma… la mujer de la que me enamore y de la que siempre lo estaré…”
Luego de eso, aquel halo desapareció sin dejar ningún rastro más que esas palabras y un brillo peculiar en la pulsera que le había entregado a la joven hace tiempo atrás.
sea cual sea el futuro que me espere. Tú eres la persona destinada para mi.
Orihime se había levantado tarde ese día, gracias al cielo era sábado, pero aun así estaba conciente que algo pas�� la noche anterior, miró su pulsera y se dio cuenta.
— Entonces ¿si estuviste aquí?… lo siento… lamento haberte preocupado así…. no será fácil pero voy a intentarlo… no voy a olvidarte, no pretendo hacerlo… pero si te convertiré en la fuerza para mi, las que necesito y necesitaré para seguir… -
Miró su pulsera, la dejó cerca del altar de su hermano, y lo decidió. Hizo una oración por su hermano y luego para él…
— Extrañaba tu voz… Aun así gracias por venir a verme… se que fue real porque así lo sentí, no volveré a llorar por esto… pero dame tiempo… necesito tiempo para buscar mi camino….
Se levantó y se encamino al baño, tomaría una larga ducha y haría unos cambios en su vida, marcar el comienzo de sus nuevos pasos, y lo que haría de hoy en adelante…
— Habrá una persona para mí en esta vida, pero la que será mi destino ya no está, tendrás que esperarme hasta que llegue donde estás… Ulquiorra… - y con una sonrisa recordó
— ¿Vals? ¿Qué es eso? -
— Es un baile que los humanos realizan cuando están celebrando, es un movimiento lento… ¿Quieres intentarlo? -
— ¿Aquí afuera? -
— ¡Claro! vamos ten enseño…-
Cuando ella tomó su mano se movieron lentamente luego de eso ella se movía delicada en una danza adorable. El viéndola feliz, usó su transformación de Segunda Etapa y la alzó en sus brazos, la llevó al cielo, y bailó junto a ella.
— Tienes miedo ? -
Ella lo miró asombrada pero luego de eso, colocó su mano en el rostro de él — No… contigo no tengo nada que temer… - y lo tomó dulcemente en un largo y tierno beso…
.
.
.
Nadie sabe lo que depara el futuro, lo único cierto es el presente, por eso debes vivirlo al máximo, no dejes remordimientos que después llegues a llorar y lamentar.

Just the Two of Us
Chapter 4 of They Act As One
Summary: Akashi invites a certain someone for a tutoring session but Seijuro has strong feelings about it.
prev - next
"We discussed no such thing!"
"I do not need your permission," Akashi furrowed his eyebrows, leaning against the car door. Seijuro paused, his eye twitching in annoyance.
"That is irrelevant." he seethed, resting his head on his knuckles.
"Besides, Father will not be home for the next few days. There is no reason you must act frantically about this." the younger twin sighed, shaking his head in annoyance. As they both arrived at the front door of their house, the twins stepped out of the car.
"Inoue-san," Akashi called out to the butler that opened the door for them to let them in. "Please inform the staff that we will have a guest over tomorrow afternoon." Seijuro clicked his tongue.
He didn't know what was bothering him so much. People have been over a bunch of times for business meetings, and sometimes even Midorima would come over. But something about a girl that Akashi specifically invited made him so agitated. He remained silent as the twins walked to their room, Akashi putting down his things.
"Oh Akashi! Uh... I need a little favor from you.."
Seijuro furrowed his eyebrows, replaying the memory in his head as he sat on his desk. The way she smiled, how a few strands of her hair fell to her face, and how she talked so casually with the two. He didn’t really like the "-sama" title, but in this case, he felt like he preferred it.
What the hell does she want with my brother?
Much to Seijuro's displeasure, their study session arrived sooner than he had hoped. Before he knew it both of them were at the front door, leading the girl inside of their house.
"Come in, come in! Do try to make yourself at home," Akashi said cheerfully, gesturing for her to step inside. Sevia had her eyes darting everywhere, from the high ceilings to the stairs in the foyer. She hesitated with each step, feeling as if an ant in a castle.
"You never told me you two were this rich-! Woah... your house is massive!" Both the twins cringed slightly at her words.
"Ah, I didn't think it was important... nevertheless, follow me. I will lead you to our room where we can study. Or would you prefer the library?" Akashi asked, trying to turn the conversation elsewhere.
"Wherever you feel more comfortable,"
"In our room then," Akashi nodded, starting to walk through the labyrinth they call their home. Seijuro trailed behind the two, his gaze fixated on the girl.
"So... twins huh? You don't see that often,"
"Ah, yes, it does seem quite rare,"
"What is it like? Do you guys communicate telepathically?" the girl joked, chuckling to herself. The twins glanced at each other, shrugging.
"No, I don't think so," they said in unison.
"Pfft- that's so cute," she giggled, walking side by side with Akashi.
"Is it really?" Akashi lit up slightly, the girl nodding cheerfully. Behind them, Seijuro frowned. Eventually they came to a stop in front of a pair of double doors, and Akashi proceeded to open one of them.
"Set your belongings where you like." he said, pulling up Seijuro's chair to his desk so that they could sit side by side.
"You two share a room, huh? And it's perfectly divided- that's funny," she chuckled, putting her bag down on the floor next to Akashi's bed. Seijuro retreated to his own bed, laying down and pulling out his laptop with a pout on his lips which Akashi ignored.
"If there is anything you need to ensure your comfort, such as snacks or any other requests, please do not hesitate to inform me. I will have someone fetch them for you," Akashi smiled, sitting on one of the chairs.
"I will, thank you again for this," she said, taking the other and sitting down.
"Now, what did you need help with?"
"Algebra..." the girl chuckled hesitantly. Akashi smiled, taking out the textbook that they used.
"There is no need to be embarassed, Sevia. It is admirable to recognize that you need help and use resources to do so." he said in a gentle tone, opening the book to the algebra section. The girl glanced down, trying to hide her blushing smile.
"Shall we get started?"
Akashi proved to be a excellent and natural teacher, as the two stormed through the chapter in about an hour. It was one of the many strengths that set him apart, his sharp intellect and patience. But a skill in teaching is useless when the student's brain had been worn out. Her mental energy had drained, her concentration waning.
"Yep! Let's do this."
"Wait this doesn't- okay no that's not right... the answer is 37, isn't it?"
"Not quite. Try again,"
"Ugh my brain is fried..." Sevia groaned, leaning back into the chair and sighing.
"Is that truly all you can muster?"
"Seijuro, don't be rude." Akashi raised his eyebrow. "We can take a break if you prefer," he turned back to the girl, setting his pencil down.
"Yes please. Ugh." the girl groaned, sinking in her chair. The older twin let out a soft laugh; it wasn't often that someone was so comfortable in the presence of an Akashi.
"Then what would you like to do?" Akashi asked.
"I don't know... what do you do for fun around here?"
"Hmm..." Akashi looked down, thinking. What would be interesting to her that they could do together? Neither of the twins had a lot of free time at home, so something 'fun' was rather foreign to him. Just then, an idea popped in his head.
"Hey, Seijuro?"
"Hm?"
"Would you like to take Yuki and Maru out for a ride?" Seijuro put his book down, side-eyeing his brother. Taking a deep sigh he succumbed, wanting to take a break from his own tasks anyways.
"If you insist,"
"Wait, what's Yuki and Maru?" the girl sat up straight, asking the twins.
"Oh, you'll see." said Akashi, rather excited. "Come, I'll show you."
They guided the girl through the hallways, out the doors, and all the way outside. The sun was nearing the horizon, leaving traces of blue still lingering in the sky. Eventually they stopped in front of stables.
"Wait- these are stables... you guys have horses?!" Akashi laughed, thinking the girl's reaction was quite adorable. It was rather normal to have this kind of pet in their social status, so this was quite a change.
"Maru," Akashi called out, a beautiful brown horse poking his head out of the stables.
"Hello there boy. How are you today?" Akashi smiled, stroking its neck as the horse nuzzled him. The girl gaped at them in awe, her eyes wide with excitement.
"That over there is Seijuro's horse, Yuki," Akashi said, gesturing to Seijuro who was feeding the white horse a carrot.
"Oh it's white! So pretty-!"
"Yes, very. But quite sassy as well, she only has eyes for Seijuro. Even I can't ride her, she simply refuses," Akashi chuckled.
"She exemplifies loyalty, not sass." Seijuro snapped at his brother.
"Whatever you say," Akashi rolled his eyes.
"So you know how to ride them??"
"Yes. Often Seijuro and I ride together when we have free time. Would you like to try?"
"Can I?!"
"But of course." Akashi reached out and grabbed a riding helmet. He brushed her hair from her face and placed it on her head snugly, securing the straps and making sure it's tight. The slight blush on her cheeks did not go unnoticed by the redhead.
"How does that feel?"
"It's perfect, thank you."
"Now, stay away from his hind legs just in case." he said, opening the gate and leading Maru out of the stables.
"Come here boy, let's go on a ride. We do have a guest, so let's keep it modest, shall we?" he said as he strapped the saddle to the horse. As the girl hesitated, Akashi stepped closer, extending his arm to her.
"Allow me to assist you," he said, his voice calm and steady as he lifted her onto the horse with ease.
"Find your balance, and grab onto the saddle in front," Akashi instructed, climbing up onto the horse himself.
"Make haste," Sejiuro said impatiently, Yuki pacing around in one spot.
"If you're so eager to rush, then by all means, go ahead," Akashi responded, which earned an eyeroll from his younger brother.
"Come on, girl..." Seijuro hissed, riding off in one direction.
"I do apologize for his behavior... I'm not quite sure what has gotten into him."
"Oh, don't worry. Looks to me that there's something bothering him,"
"You think so?" Akashi looked over to the direction where Seijuro went, a bit worried.
"Well, for now let us enjoy the ride. Hold on tight," he told her, the girl grabbing the saddle horn.
"Come now, Maru," Akashi said, tapping the horse's neck twice. Akashi held the reigns as the horse started to walk. The girl squealed softly, giggling as she heard the clip-clop of the horse's hooves on the grass.
"This is so cool...!" she said, wiggling in excitement. Akashi chuckled softly, clicking his tongue twice to signal the horse to go a bit faster. Off they went to the grassy hills, against the sun. Sevia closed her eyes and took a deep breath, spreading her arms to feel the wind.
"This feels like flying~"
"Wait- be careful, Sevia-"
"You'll catch me, won't you?" the girl said, not even looking back at the redhead. Akashi smiled softly, keeping one hand on the reigns and wrapping one of his arm around her waist to keep her from falling.
"Of course I will," he whispered, letting her enjoy herself in silence. The wind played with her hair, the sunlight kissing their faces, the crisp, fresh air filled her lungs, and the arm that wrapped around her so securely. All of it was simply so euphoric.
Seijuro watched them from a distance, keeping still on his horse. He just stared, letting his mind wander as he soaked up the sun. It was something sort of melancholy, intertwined with a lingering sense of anger. It reminded him of when the twins were younger, racing against the wind and laughing. The corner of his mouth curled up into a slight smile, remembering how Maru tripped and Akashi fell off his horse with a bad scrape. He had to carry him inside, and little Seijuro never left his twin's side.
It was so perfect... just the two of us.
Was that it? Did he just fear an intruder possibly wedging in between the two? Or was it change that he feared?
No... this is the fear of being cast aside.
But this was different than what he felt at Teiko. Akashi was perfectly happy to grow in his own pace, but Seijuro forced himself to. For his brother. And now his brother was going to leave him behind. But if Akashi was happy in his life, shouldn't he be happy for him?
Eventually, he won't need me anymore.
And it's because of that girl.
His thoughts were interrupted as he saw two hands waving in the distance, finally noticing the calls of the two.
"Seijuroooo!!!"
"Seijuro, join us here!!!" They called out, standing by a bench. Seijuro shook his head with a soft chuckle, smiling softly. Eventually, he made his way to the two.
Akashi nii-san wouldnt allow that...
...right?

Blue Flame
I. CHEGADA
A Ásia parecia um novo começo, eles terem matado a tutora antes de pegarem aquele barco, parecia o plano perfeito de se livrarem dos abusos físicos e psicológicos do ministério. Era um plano de merda colocar jovens em tal situação, mas a ficha deles ficavam escondidas. Era um projeto obscuro do ministério. Afinal, menores de idade não deveriam ter treinamento militar e se envolver em guerras. Exceto que os usavam para serem soldados sem emoção. Com a criação vinda desde que eram novos, era mais fácil terem a personalidade moldada. Por isso, não demorou muito para que o ministério do Japão descobrissem o paradeiro deles e os convocasse a irem a sede.
— Nós vamos fingir que a tutora de vocês não morreu de forma extremamente suspeita no meio de uma mata, bem longe dos bombardeiros da guerra, em um local muito próximo ao quão vocês possivelmente pegaram o barco para fugir da Rússia. Entretanto, os serviços de vocês serão prestados para nós agora, até porque são menores de idade e os documentos de vocês estão todos conosco. É um convite amigável, mas que vocês não podem negar, porque não tem escolhas. — A mais velha andava de um lado para o outro, uma voz amigável, porém, com uma das mãos empunhadas na varinha que estava no bolso de seu casaco, como se tivesse a plena ciência do quão perigoso aqueles dois juntos poderiam ser. — Para dar esse recado, você podia ter mandado uma carta. Não é como se tivéssemos algum poder de escolha aqui, não é? — Cifer cruzou os braços em frente ao corpo, sentado na cadeira, enquanto encarava a mulher. — E como vai ser? Vamos ter outra mãe postiça que vai nos acordar com gás lacrimogêneo às 5h da manhã para nós treinar para ataques imprevistos? — A expressão de Inoue era impassível, já estava tão exausta daquele ciclo sem fim, que sequer conseguia ter algum tipo de reação do tipo. — Vamos deixar vocês terem a vida de vocês, mas vão precisar estar presentes aqui em todos os nossos chamados, sem exceção, ou nós iremos atrás de vocês. A linha entre vocês serem jovens heróis do ministério e bruxos inconsequentes que tentam atacar o ministério e são presos, é muito tênue. Espero que se lembrem disso.
II. EQUALIZAR
Só o fato de não ter uma maluca gritando e batendo neles em toda oportunidade, já fazia com que a vida deles se tornassem muito mais fácil. Era realmente uma nova experiência estar em uma escola como um aluno comum e não como um soldado que está sempre buscando informações a espreita. Para Cifer, tudo havia se tornado mais simples. Assistir aulas, ficar com Poppy nos tempos livres, e ter uma vida social, era algo que mesmo nos seus melhores sonhos, jamais imaginou ter. Mas sempre, durante um período do dia, ele se reunia com Inoue para treinarem juntos, até um dos dois estar completamente sem forças. Não porque realmente ainda tivessem a obrigação de precisarem fazer aquilo, mas porque era um hábito. Ele sabia que o ministério era instável e que mesmo falando que ele só precisaria cumprir ordens, ainda poderiam ser o motivo de trazerem aurores aquela escola, e eles não tinham um histórico bom com o ministério. Seu treinamento principal era estar treinado para o que poderia vir e isso nunca saía de sua cabeça. Tentava amenizar a situação por conta da namorada, porque sabia o quanto ela odiava tudo aquilo, desde que soube o quão desgraçada foi a vida deles, mas não é como se tivessem muita escolha. Ele vivia tenso, era a realidade. Inoue sempre foi melhor com armamentos, então tinha verdadeiros pesadelos noturnos sobre não lutar do jeito que deveria, mesmo sendo ótima. Por isso, se submetia a exaustão nos treinos, na maioria das vezes com Cifer ganhando as lutas, porque sempre foi melhor que ela nessa parte, só para sentir que estava dando seu máximo. Foi treinada para dar o seu 100%, mesmo que seu corpo não estivesse em tais condições. Eram realmente máquinas de guerra, por isso, escondiam a todo custo a existência deles entre aurores, até que tivessem idade o suficiente. O momento em que se permitia relaxar, era quando estava com Jimmy, porque ele sempre tinha uma visão
diferente dos demais. Achava até mesmo graça do quão animado ele ficava em saber sobre as habilidades dela de luta. Até mesmo prometia ensinar ele, se ele quisesse. Era o verdadeiro momento de paz, antes de voltar para a energia caótica de militar.
III. MUDANÇA
Quando receberam a nova carta do ministério sobre uma mudança no acordo deles, um ano depois, já estavam preparados para o pior. Mudanças nunca eram boas. E ainda faltavam um ano para atingirem a maioridade.
— A partir de hoje, vocês vão ter um líder. Então, vão responder a ele diretamente. — Ótimo, vai começar a palhaçada toda de novo. — Cifer resmungou revirando os olhos, até olhar para o lado e ver Inoue completamente estática. — Não vai acontecer nada com você, eu não deixava da última vez, não vai ser agora que vai acontecer. — Algum dia esse inferno vai acabar? — Foi a única coisa que a garota conseguiu falar, enquanto respirava fundo. — Adorei a animação de vocês, gosto de soldados empolgados assim. Cifer quase levantou a mão para mostrar o dedo médio a mais velha, mas Inoue segurou seu braço. — Não vale a pena. — Murmurou. — Esse é Reiner Braun, tenho certeza que vão se dar super bem.
Inoue arregalou os olhos, enquanto Reiner apenas maneou a cabeça negativamente, para que ela não esboçasse nenhum tipo de reação. O fato de que Reiner saiu do exército e foi direto para o Ministério, fez com que apenas ela o conhecesse por causa dos Ozu, já que ele não frequentava a escola. — Espero que estejam preparados para trabalharem comigo, tenho certeza que vamos colher ótimos resultados juntos.
IV. PLANO FINAL
Quando Reiner buscou o Ministério, ele apenas tinha falado sobre seu ótimo desempenho no exército coreano, e como queria ajudar a evitar ataques contra eles. Óbvio que sabiam que ele estava no ataque a Mahoutokoro, mas aparentemente, a parte dele ser animago, não tinha realmente vindo a tona ou apenas acharam que era algum surto em meio a guerra, já que ninguém foi atrás dele depois. Quando finalmente conseguiu se reunir com os dois sem os olhos e os ouvidos do ministério, a postura séria relaxou. — Prazer, sou Reiner. Um dos filhos adotivos dos Ozu. — Estendeu a mão para Cifer, que ficou confuso por alguns segundos, até que entendeu porque Inoue parecia despreocupada. — Reunião de família no ministério, então? — Inoue acabou emitindo uma risada baixa, no processo. — Praticamente. Mas eu precisei insistir muito para ser líder de vocês, por um único motivo. O Ministério vem fodendo tudo que eu conheço desde sempre. A gente vai implodir ele, assim que soubermos todas as fraquezas e sei que só posso confiar em vocês para isso. — Finalmente um plano que eu gosto dentro dessa merda. — Cifer relaxou a postura. — Então, temos um plano. — Ótimo. — Ótimo.

Gridman - Um Tokusatsu esquecido que virou anime...
Se você assistia Tokusatsu nos anos 1990, existe a probabilidade de você lembrar de séries do gênero, como Kamen Rider e Ultraman, por exemplo. O gênero de anime estilo Mecha já não é mais popular como era antes, mas ainda é um gênero muito importante e influente dentro dos animes. Um dos gêneros mais populares no Japão é o Tokusatsu, que é bem representado pelos Power Rangers em terras ocidentais. No começo dos anos 1990, teve uma série que fugiu dos parâmetros fundamentais de Ultraman ao implementar lutas de gigantes contra monstros virtuais, com suporte de Mechas, Gridman the Hyper Agent(電光超人グリッドマン), que foi elaborada pela Tsuburaya Productions, empresa muito renomada por Ultraman.
Na premissa da série de 1993, três adolescentes, Naoto Sho, Yuka Inoue e Ippei Baba, estavam desenvolvendo um software através de um supercomputador chamada Junk, até que um acidente funde o programa que eles elaboravam com um policial interdimensional chamado Gridman. Do outro lado, Kahn Digifer, um poderoso demônio digital, entrou no computador de um jovem revoltado chamado Takeshi Todo, que fez um acordo com ele para se vingar das pessoas que o humilharam, e com a ajuda do demônio imperial do ciberespaço, ele cria monstros virtuais para aterrorizar o mundo virtual. Durante a crise digital, Naoto e Gridman se fundem, e eles enfrentam os monstros criados por Takeshi e Kahn Digifer... Esta série serviu de base para Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad, uma adaptação americana que a DiC Entertainment licenciou da Tsuburaya Productions para competir com um fenômeno que estava em grande ascensão naquela época: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
No ano de 2017, o Studio Trigger anuciou que iria fazer um reboot no formato anime sobre uma série de tokusatsu esquecida há 24 anos. Este reboot foi denominado SSSS.Gridman com as quatro letras "S" iniciais referenciando Super Human Samurai Syber-Squad, e apropriadamente, a adaptação em anime combina elementos de ambos os predecessores, a versão original(Gridman) e a adaptação ocidental(Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad), em algo extremamente novo, e o herói titular, Gridman, parece mais próximo de um Mecha do que um personagem de Tokusatsu, enquanto que outros membros do Gridman Team se transformam em veículos. Falando sobre mechas, a escolha artística para a série aborda elementos de uma série de Robôs em Disfarce que você deve conhecer bem: Transformers. Embora SSSS.Gridman teve apenas 12 episódios em 2018, tornou-se rapidamente a entrada de maior sucesso da franquia devido ao quanto reviveu a propriedade.
Em 2021, SSSS.Gridman teve uma continuação, SSSS.Dynazenon, que teve design e premissa mais apropriados para uma série de anime Super Robot. Essa evolução abraçou totalmente o gênero mecha e solidificou a transição para uma direção longe das raízes clássicas do gênero Tokusatsu, mesmo que agora houvesse um universo Gridman estabelecido através do anime predecessor. A Takara Tomy (empresa que administra a franquia Transformers no Japão) também estaria envolvida na produção de Dynazenon, uma vez que a companhia havia trabalhado na série de 1993 previamente.

Retro Random: La vuelta de Slam Dunk!
Y para arrancar este blog ya voy a caer en la sección Retro Random recordando (y verborreando) un poco la gran serie de Slam Dunk, que marcó mi infancia y mi gusto por el Básquet. Aviso que todo es una opinión personal basada en mi fanatismo por la serie, por ende, la realidad puede lucir distorsionada (?
Empecemos.
A pesar de que vi muchas series de anime sobre este deporte, Slam Dunk siempre encabezó mi lista. No importa el tiempo que pase, podría mirarlo siempre. Tiene ese no sé qué, te hace sentir feliz.
En ningún otro anime de Básquet pude encontrar tanto realismo en un dibujo, una trama de puta madre, crecimiento en los personajes, momentos emocionantes que te arrancaban las lágrimas, amores no correspondidos, diversidad de personajes (no eran hegemónicos, ¡gracias Takehiko!), problemas de la sociedad reflejados en chicos solitarios y rebeldes, un Japón muy de los 90, unas clavadas de la concha de la lora, de esas que te hacen levantar de la silla y gritar gol aunque no sea Fútbol. Unos temazos que terminaban en pogo, las peleas de machomen que nada tenían que envidiarle a las de Dbz, la tenacidad de Hanamichi, nuestro querido número 10, y así podría seguir un buen rato. Todo me encantó desde el principio. Apenas vi el primer capítulo, pensé: esto no es un Shonen más, acá se llora loco. Porque claro que los hombres también lloran (¡gracias de nuevo, maestro Take, por normalizar lo que siempre debió ser normalizado!).
Estábamos en los 90, qué te puedo decir. Todo se vivía con otra intensidad, todo era, de algún modo, más natural. Fui afortunada y pude vivir la serie en la época en la que se engendró (a Argentina nos llegó a finales de los noventa e inicio del 2000, pero básicamente era la misma década), así que me era fácil sentirme identificada con el ambiente noventoso de su momento y ahora sentirme nostálgica por añorar al mismo; la escuela de ese tiempo, la falta de celulares, la vida más de calle, los amigos, las risas, los juegos, los sueños, la inocencia y sencillez de antes. Todo era diferente. Los colores cálidos, la música, el olor en el aire, la ropa, los peinados. Por dios esos peeelos con una pizca de los ochenta ♥
Sí, éramos un poco más problemáticos y había muchísimas cosas que socialmente eran terribles y que, por suerte, ahora están cambiando, pero no les puedo decir cómo extraño la simpleza que tanto caracterizaba la década de los 90. Con simpleza me refiero a que no se vivía el estrés de hoy, dado que no había el circuito de información abismal que hoy se maneja o la necesidad de estar en portada todo el tiempo. Era, literalmente, otro mundo, y lo extraño como una vieja chota. Y eso que ni pasé los 31.
Cada vez que veo Slam Dunk me transporto a esos días de colores sepia en los que tenía once años y vivía jugando al Básquet en el parque aunque fuera un pitufo de altura. Lo único que importaba era divertirse, ser feliz no para mostrarlo sino solo para sentirlo.
Y hablando de colores, esta serie también nos regaló unos Aesthetic noventosos re lindos, donde podemos apreciar la típica paleta de colores cálidos de la época.
Personalmente, lo prefiero así al brillo extremo que le meten hoy en día al anime. Creo que para contar bien una historia también hay que saber bien cómo retractarla. Ahí entra el tema de la fotografía que, bien aplicada, aporta al ambiente y a las sensaciones. Me pasa algo similar con Hunter x Hunter 1999 (serie a la cual le voy a dar su merecido espacio más adelante), que utiliza una paleta de colores cálidos y sombras bien oscuras que aportan suspenso a la trama y me hacen seguir prefiriendo la versión retro a la del 2011. Pero volvamos a la fotografía de Slam Dunk:
Más vintage imposible. Hermoso ♥
Por supuesto, no es el único anime que me lleva a esos días retro, pero hoy decidí hablar de él en conmemoración por la peli que el maestro Takehiko Inoue decidió regalarnos. Qué grandeee Takeee!
Los clásicos no mueren, incluso aunque el final del manga me haya dejado mordiéndome las uñas. Creo que, además de sentir curiosidad por el futuro de todos nuestros protagonistas, que poco se ha revelado, todos queríamos ver si Haruko finaaalmente le iba a corresponder a Hanamichi; el rey de los rechazos. Me la juego por el no.
Haruko fue -sin saberlo- la luz que nuestro pelirrojo necesitaba para encontrar su propio camino; el Básquet. Ambos viven un amor no correspondido y se refugian en el otro. Lo verdaderamente importante no es tanto la relación entre ellos sino el cambio que produjo el encuentro de ambos. Si no fuera por Haruko, Hanamichi seguiría perdido regalando trompadas a diestra y siniestra. Ningún encuentro es casual, dicen.
Haruko, con el paso de la serie, se la ve más madura y dejando atrás su admiración para con Rukawa (para mí solo era admiración, cosas de la adolescencia). Se corta el pelo (típica japoneseada que significa dejar atrás a un amor marchito o madurar en sí) y sigue adelante, quizá dándonos a entender que hay un lugarcito para el diez en su corazón. Capaz soñamos de más. Lo más romántico que llegamos a ver de estos dos en el anime fue en uno de los últimos capítulos, donde Hanamichi casi se le declara en el festival. Pero bueno, malió sal.
Y todo por un mosquito.
Amo que Hanamichi es re sensible xD mi vida. Por suerte, el malentendido de la cachetada y el mosquito se solucionó rápido. Pero seguimos en la misma, ninguno de los dos avanza (sin contar la confesión ambigua del pelirrojo en el manga). Creo que Haruko, aunque peca de distraída, ya para esa instancia de la serie sabe muy bien lo que siente Hanamichi por ella, pero tira boluda porque no sabe si corresponderle. Es decir, todo este tiempo solo tuvo ojos para este muchachito:
No te podemos culpar, Haruko. Rukawa es un anti, pero se parte al medio. Entendemos que te cueste olvidarlo.
Al menos la cita entre ellos terminó dentro de todo bien.
Para mí todo va a quedar en una muy linda amistad, y me parece perfecto. Son re chistosos juntos, siento que son igual de boludos. Los quiero mucho :(
Y hablando de boludos, una de las cosas que más me divertía de la serie eran las interacciones entre Rukawa y Sakuragi. Son los típicos perro y gato que tarde o temprano empezás a shippear porque medio que es inevitable no caer en el team enemies to lovers.
Gracias a ellos (y a un par más) le agarré el gustito al Yaoi (mucho gustito, ju ju). Y como quiero desarrollarlos bien, voy a proceder a hacer una segunda parte de esto para sacar a relucir todo mi fangirleo con estos dos rivales eternos.
Los leo ahí ♥
Les dejo una musiquita para la espera:

a naoki é muito profissional com suas colegas de trabalho (ainda mais pra evitar rumores), então no início o contato da kana era só inoue kana. muito chique... até elas começarem a ficar próximas e se tornar kana-chan... e então ficar a coisa mais boiola que é minha flor 🌸. quem pode culpa-la por amar demais?
- what your muse’s picture is in mine’s phone?
bom, no início a naoki só não colocou nada (ela tava tentando, ok), mas aí quando elas começaram a sair acabou se tornando essa e... precisa de explicação??? mas depois que elas começaram a ficar oficiais a naoki veio toda envergonhada tipo... "👉👈 p-podemos usar matching...?" e agora elas usam essa e essa.
- what your muse’s ringtone is in mine’s phone?
caso você não tenha percebido... a naoki é BOIOLA E GADO, mas simplesmente porque nunca teve a chance de vivenciar um namorinho ou alguém que tivesse coragem de assumir ela, então... seria essa coisa fofa aqui. e o pior é que elas nem precisariam estar namorando porque eu imagino um dia a naoki cochilando antes do ensaio e todo mundo tentando acordar ela, mas só a kana consegue. e aí ela colocou essa música de trocadilho.
