#ash lynx my beloved

[caregivingchrysalises]

Hihi! I saw some bear stuffies at the store that reminded me of you, one was a weighted one and the other had a little hoodie on! Do you know what a good name for a tiger would be? I got a plushie one and some books today, plus some snacks. What have you been up to? - rosie

hello hello sundrop, thanks for your patience as i flew to this ask!!! this makes my heart everso happy! it appears that the royal carriage carrying some of my beloved bear stuffies has disappeared on its journey to me, so i’m cherishing the bear sightings even more so!! hmm perhaps stripesie or maybe something related to the colors of their fur,, like tangelo? or maybe aslan (which i love for ash lynx)~ i’d love to know what name you pick and hope my suggestions are humorous if not a bit helpful! that sounds like such a wonderful little adventure dove, i’m so happy to hear it! i hope you’ve been keeping well little star!

it’s starting to feel like summer and i have been spending much of my time (some royal advisors would argue too much) under the sun reading various stories and trying to come up with some of my own. how is the season fairing for you lovebug? any stories that have spoken to your heart lately? i’m thinking of a maybe creating a summer reading “challenge” of sorts because reading was always a key part of summertime for your darling prinx, if nothing else i may just end up sharing some of the butterfly bookmarks i’ve been working on! speaking of which, have you been making any more origami or other little crafts? i’d love to hear about any and all of your adventures!

always a joy to fly to your asks!

~ with hugs and care, always, atala

ASFJFSFJ when irl the average age of being a US-vietnam soldier was 19/22 then you have Griffin “born in 1957, in Vietnam in 1973 at earliest” Callenreese being SIXTEEN at that point of time, a literal baby shipped to the other side of the world either alongside other babies (Max) or with other adults all just for the sake of getting money to raise Ash n giving him a good life which was never even possible bc of horrible things outside your circumstances so all of your mental trauma at best was for nothing and at worst open the gateways for even more terror… rip Griffin Callrenreese you could never be truly acknowledged

ASH LYNX, MY BELOVED 🍌🐟

•

This is literally the greatest, AND most depressing show ever and I will not be accepting differing opinions (Im six rewatches in, so Im only a little insane)

[bananafishdepression]

I have a serious theory to talk about with you people

This is Ash Lynx from anime called Banana Fish

In one episode he wanted to cosplay a nurse and named himself Barbara

This is where my theory begins. We all know our beloved Barbie, who was named after the creator's daughter Barbara

What if Ash's true identity is Barbie, but he pretends to be a man to escape from patriarchy and tries to blend in a world full of men who rule the world?? 🤯🤯😱

Hi! it's me Cide!! (^^)/

Thank you so much for your ask and I hope I answered it well.

I want to ask the same question back to you: who is one fictional character or (upto 3) that you would bring back to life and why?

Also I'm curious about your username: about its origins and if you go by any nicknames (you don't have to answer this obviously)

I hope you have a nice day <3

Hi Cide!!! ＼(^-^)／

*me, remembering the death of these characters, tearing up* You answered too well, thank you :')

Tough question, but I've asked you this before so it's my fault and I have to face it too lmao

(spoilers from The Maze Runner series, Attack on Titan, Banana Fish, Teen Wolf)

Newt from The Maze Runner series by James Dashner

He is my favorite character in this series, one of my favorite characters EVER and I will never emotionally recover from his death!! What strikes me especially in the film adaptation of The Death Cure is that Thomas asked Ava if he could have saved Newt and she said yes... His death didn't have to happen! And after reading The Maze Cutter, my conviction is that Newt shouldn't have died has become even stronger. He simply had too much significance to the plot, to Thomas (Newtmas my beloved ship!) and to me.

2. Sasha Braus from Attack on Titan

AOT really killed a lot of characters, but it's Sasha's death that I can't come to terms with the most. Her death really wasn't necessary, I consider her a random victim. I'd like to bring her back to life. There are many dishes she still has to try. And most of all, she would bring joy to her living friends with her presence.

3. Ash Lynx from Banana Fish

WHY? I don't understand how it's possible to destroy everything at the last minutes!!!

Why did doomed by narrative yaoi actually have to be... doomed by narrative yaoi. I would like to bring him back to life so he can live happily with Eiji. After everything he's been through, he really deserves a happy ending and not something like this.

+ bonus because you also did it hahah

Derek Hale from Teen Wolf

And that's a bonus, I absolutely do not acknowledge the existence of Teen Wolf Movie, so Derek Hale is still alive in my head!! Seriously, I do not understand at all why this was made, it was not necessary. Like, this movie was made only to resurrect Allison, who no one liked, after a few seasons and kill Derek, who was practically the best character (next to Stiles) in this series??? THIS DOES NOT MAKE SENSE, I DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE MOVIE AND HIS DEATH

As for my username, I once gave a detailed answer in this post, thank you for asking!! (I had to look up this ask because I remembered that I gave a detailed answer and I didn't want to leave something out now).

As for the nickname, my friends call me Rachel for some reason hahah. So feel free to call me that too! I've been planning to finally write an introduction post for a long time, to, among others, say that you can call me Rachel, because I'm aware that for non-Polish users my username might as well be keyboard smash lmaoo. Maybe I'll finally do it someday :')

Thank you so much for your ask ♡♡♡ I had a really good day ヽ(´▽`)ノ

Asheiji fanfic recs pt. 4

Pt. 1 , 2 and 3

Brooklyn Baby by suffragettecity(41k)

Front-man Ash Lynx goes from coast to coast with his bohemian band. Photographer Eiji Okumura goes from journalist to groupie with his newfound freedom.

Your Best American Boy by suffragettecity(57k)

Cherry popsicles, bummed cigarettes, wrinkled photographs and shirtless nights. The summer a Japanese tourist moves in across the street, and an American boy falls in love through the fire-escapes.

Dusk till Dawn by equinoctial(97k)

“Alright. But you stay safe okay? I mean-” Eiji immediately regretted his reflexive reply to a goodbye. This wasn’t just your ordinary stranger, this was probably a powerful wizard for crying out loud.

But instead of an awkward laugh, the wizard settled with a gentle smile, the kind that reached his eyes and made the mystifying jade more brilliant than ever.

“Thanks. You stay safe too,” and with that, the wizard hopped off the balcony and vanished into the crowd below.

---

In which Eiji gets cursed into a ghost, the kingdom wages war on its neighbours, and the devil wizard Ash Lynx roams the wastelands while striking fear into the strongest of hearts.

But of course, fate would see the seemingly heartless wizard fall in love with a heart that had so much to give.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT

Mr. James R. Callenreese and Ms. Hideko Aoki are very delighted to announce the engagement between Mr. Callenreese's son and sole heir to Callenreese Corporotions Mr. Aslan J. Callenreese and Ms. Aoki's beloved nephew Mr. Eiji Okumura. The happy couple haven't decided on a wedding date yet.

(Except, Ash and Eiji are not happy at all because they don't want this marriage.)

of sugar cookies and chocolate puddings by kybelles(3k)

Eiji first meets Ash on a gloomy sunday afternoon.

After a little silence, the door is slowly opened by someone Eiji doesn’t notice at first. When he lowers his eyes a little, however, his gaze meets with a pair of bright green eyes. He takes a little step back, taking the appearance of the blonde kid who’s standing in front him. The suspicious scowl on his face softens a little when his eyes catch the plate in Eiji’s hands but he keeps holding his guard.

“Um…” Eiji begins hesitantly.

“What do you want?” the boy asks with a challenging face.

“M-my mom sent this.” he stammers finally, pushing the plate forward a little clumsily.

be my mirror, my sword and shield by kybelles(15k)

Ash Lynx finds the love of his life on a quiet night after he trips on sidewalk and harshly bumps his face against it when he exits from library.

Ash lets out a long-suffering sigh and prepares to take out his phone when he hears a sharp inhale and feels someone approaching him in a hurry. He defensively turns towards the noise but freezes like a deer caught in the headlights.

There’s guy in front of him who’s looking at Ash with concern and the sight of him literally makes Ash’s heart flutter like it’s never done before. He has the softest looking black hair Ash’s ever seen and for a crazy moment, Ash feels an irrepressible urge to run his hand through it. The guy’s already big dark eyes grow impossibly bigger when they land on Ash’s bruised cheek.

“Oh my god!” he shrieks in an adorable manner. “Are you okay?”

“You must be an angel.” Ash blurts before he can stop himself.

Sacrifice by signpainter1(33k)

Ash, the Sun God asks for only one thing; a daily sacrifice of wheat to help him maintained the fields. When war threatens the country, they turn from a wheat sacrifice to a human one. People are brought to the capital including the man Ash loves the most, Eiji Okumura. Ash has to find a way to prevent Eiji from dying which is hard when humans only hear only what they want to hear.

The One With the Vampires by TurnUps(99k)

Eiji Okumura has travelled to New York state because a Count Golzine is paying him an awful lot of money to take some pictures of his house. It doesn't take long for him to find out that he's the intended prey for creatures of the night.

But he instead to save the mysterious Ash, Golzine's supposed son, as well as himself.

*

Ash put his hand over the boy's mouth. Kept him pushed against the wall.

"Listen to me." His voice came out as a growl - a monster's voice. "If you go up to the Golzine Estate, then you won't come back down. With or without the money, you won't see a cent of it. That man - that - thing - he lives to trap pretty boys like you into his web, and he'll gobble you up before you realise you're stuck. Go. Home."

The boy didn't struggle. A rabbit who knew it had been caught in a snare. Dark eyes stared at him - wide. Maybe that meant he was finally seeing sense.

His lips were parted, under Ash's palm. He became away of that. Warm skin and warmer breath. A familiar feeling reared its head in his stomach. A hunger.

No. He could not save this boy from Golzine's clutches just so that he would fall prey to his own.

Uncharted Waters by midnitewrites(148k)

A routine day on the water is turned on its head when fisherman Eiji Okumura spots a strange creature in his fishing net. His excitement quickly morphs into disbelief when he realizes that what he caught is no fish: it’s a mermaid, beautiful and deadly—and, as he soon learns, gravely injured.

Desperate to save them, Eiji spirits the mermaid away to his home and nurses them back to health in his bathtub. As they recover, he learns more about them and their situation: their name is Ash; they can’t hope to survive without a fin to replace the one they lost; and in a year’s time, their pod will once again return to the bay where Eiji first found them.

Together, Eiji and his friends devise a plan to rehabilitate Ash and reunite them with their pod. Yet as Ash gains strength, so, too, do the bonds they forge, and the prospect of saying goodbye becomes far more difficult than any of them bargained for.

Bed of Roses by TurnUps(103k)

Eiji had been watching the boy for the last three dances.

Well, he had been watching, but not watching. Every time the boy’s gaze came anywhere near him, he stared back down at the table, hoping that he hadn’t been caught.

It was the boy’s hair that had caught his eye at first. Yellow – somewhere between yellow and white. He’d never seen hair that colour before. Didn’t know it was possible for real people to have hair that colour. It was as though there was a miniature sun around his head. As if he was a candle, with its own flame.

The flame flickered in his eyes too. Green eyes – he’d rarely seen them, either – and none quite as vibrant a green as his. They sparkled like emeralds, above flashing white teeth. His waistcoat had a hint of green to it, that brought them out all the more.

*

Western/Cowboy/Young Guns AU! Eiji has travelled to America with Ibe because of fishy business with the mayor of a small town. Ash runs a group called the Regulators after the same thing.

And in That Light, I Saw You by ohrange(125k)

After a traumatic experience renders Eiji unable to attend school, Ibe suggests taking some time off to work as his photography assistant at an agency in New York. Eiji takes to the idea well enough, but doesn’t expect to get involved into investigating a sex-trafficking ring… something that Ash, a model at the agency, has been secretly keeping evidence of for years.

[In which Ash is a model with a dark past no one dares to question, and Eiji is a design student who escapes from Japan only to be met with the same thing he wants to forget.]

Rewrite the Stars by Hamliet(58k)

When exchange student Eiji Okumura arrives at his American high school for a year abroad, his worries about fitting in and earning As are quickly swept aside when he meets Ash Lynx, a genius rumored to have spent time in juvie last year. Between Ash, his friends Shorter and Sing, and the mysterious younger brother of the school's principal, Eiji finds himself drawn into a power struggle that he realizes is more familiar than he thought. High School AU... (like, where they're actually in school + there's a chance of healing).

Ain't it like thunder under earth by Snow_Falls(11k)

'Alex clarified, when again it seemed like Ash wouldn’t reply. “Whoever goes with the boss has to spend some time fooling around with him.”

“Who is going with Ash?” Eiji had to ask.

There was a significant pause. The boys looked at Eiji and away.'

Fake dating, then real dating, with the mildest of heists thrown in for flavour.
