Theory

Say the Authens are to become the Forger Grandpa and Grandma (I know there are other theories floating around but say the Authens ARE becoming Ji-jiji and Ba-baba for Anya).

What if the Authens are only moving in now because of Loid's realisation in the previous arc. The Forgers have been becoming realer and realer, and the Authens moving in just furthermore seals the deal?

(Inspired by this discussion. Thank you, for the discussion between @purpleemeraldot and @jesterraconteuse under this post)

Excerpt from Lost and Found: A Broganes Story

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The drive to the Shiroganes' house was quiet. Shiro pulled into the carport, making sure to leave enough space behind him for Adam later. 

With Keith's help, they gathered up all the bags in one go. Shiro unlocked the door and pushed it open. 

"Welcome back," he said, feeling weepy again. He hit the light switch.

Keith looked around and suddenly choked out an anguished sob.

"Oh, Keith," Shiro said. He dropped the bags down and shut the door. "Still no hugs, or is that okay now?" 

He knew he kept asking, but he genuinely wasn't sure how to make the situation better. Hugs were Adam's go to for comfort, and he had always gotten what he needed from Baba and Jiji. Standing around while Keith was upset had felt like doing nothing all day.

Rather than answering, Keith dropped his bags and pressed his face into Shiro's torso, no longer bothering to try and quiet his own sobs. Whatever he was feeling, he couldn't hold it in anymore. 

Shiro jolted as Keith latched onto him. He immediately wrapped his arms around him, holding him as close as he could without hurting him. He cupped a hand around the back of his head and stroked down until he was rubbing his back soothingly. 

"Okay, okay," he said softly. "Let it out. I'm here. I've got you."

Hi, could you please tell us where is Kiyomi and what are the Azumabitos doing in the clueless teens universe? I don’t remember her being mentioned at all!

Kiyomi lives in Hizuru! I think the only mention of her is in First Night At Home (the little spinoff drabble) when Mikasa is looking at how Eren arranged their closet and she notes the boxes containing the kimono Kiyomi gifted them. There is also mention of unnamed Azumabito cousins in the Clueless Teens chapter Eren Gets Hitched. Mikasa goes to her Baba's (Kasumi's mom) birthday dinner in the city with her family and they stay for the weekend to spend time with her Azumabito relatives.

I don't think I fully got into it in the fic, but it does get mentioned that her line of the Azumabito family has lived in Paradis for over a century to mimic how long they lived inside the walls in canon, and the rest of the family are in Hizuru. Of course, for Kiyomi to be Kasumi's first cousin on her father's side, at least one of the Paradis clan would have had to emigrate to Hizuru at some point (despite not speaking Hizuran anymore), but I don't think it's that outlandish for one or more of Jiji's siblings to decide to move to Hizuru as adults after the Paradisian Free States put them in internment camps during their alternate universe version of WW2 (all this history gets only barely touched on in the chapter Meet Me At the Meet, but I thought about it a lot while writing).

Also, I don't remember if I mentioned it in the fic (I didn't find anything when I checked), but my idea was that during their post-high school Hizuru trip, they'd be staying with members of Mikasa's Hizuran side of the family (Kiyomi, specifically).

Hi! I LOVE DYH so when a friend told me about Bird Set Free I ran so fast to read it and the way I literally screeched out loud when I read that Remus is Half Japanese in this fic?! Im half Japanese and I also love katsudon and daifuku and called my Grandpa Jiji and the happiness that brought me.....thank you :') Also, I've been binging all your other fics while I wait for new chapters and idk why its taken me this long to do so but I LOVE THEM ALL

OH MY GOSH THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY!!! I'm so glad you like the fic but I'm so excited I got these little things right! (especially Baba and Jiji because I read some things say yes its common to say for grandchildren and others say it was disrespectful but i was like ITS SO CUTE THO) so I am so so so happy that it made you happy!! And you came back and made me happy, so I think we're even! ❤️

So i’ve heard that the first season of DDD was going to end in a cliffhanger, but I went in anyway because the reason I started the series was because of the Okarun and Jiji singing the Slam Dunk songs and T posing around Momo, and also the scene of them geeking out over UMA together.

Unfortunately watching it in context, I think I was a little disappointed to see how Okarun was so against Jiji. I guess it was my fault because I went in with expectations of Okarun being a little shyer and meeker (actual Onoda Sakamichi) but he’s not quite there. I also never thought that Okarun/Momo were legit highly hinted at, and only thought that since they are dual protagonists that they can easily be shipped because they are partners. I mean, it’s a little refreshing when I don’t hate the main ship in a Shounen Jump series, because they actually have great moments.

I was hoping Okarun and Jiji were just matching each other’s freaks and finding a new friend, and it kind of was but with the pretext of Okarun trying to fight Jiji and win Momo’s attention, so the of the two being silly in context was not as fun for me.

I think my biggest problem with the series is Okarun. Aside from my expectations for him, I just thought it was so strange that he would talk back at Momo when she was trying to befriend him. Like she was trying to relate to him by telling him that she believed in ghosts and he just snorts at her. And then later he says she’s ugly out of nowhere. I think it’s supposed to sound like he’s nervous so he’s just biting out retorts, but it’s like for a guy who never had any friends, I guess it make sense that he doesn’t know how to interact with people but at the same time, this is why you don’t have any friends. 

I also feel like they wanted to have Momo and Okarun argue because they think that make an ideal romance. For me personally, I don’t really enjoy when two people argue and people think they “get along”.

Like Okarun’s feelings of wanting to be Momo’s friend are so good, and not even thinking of her as a girl until a little later. I’m weak for Momo already falling because of the stupid coincidences, but hey, I Get It Girl. 

I think I also wasn’t super fond of his Turbo Baba transformation and how his personality just became something else, but when Aira turned into Acrobatic Silky I guess I could excuse it because they’re not totally them, but half of them are? Kinda wish there was some sort of correlation to the spirit that possessed them and their true personalities.

I… don’t hate Aira? She reminded me a bit of Teruhashi from Saiki but not as comedic, but I think I like that little “I’m a bishoujo to save the world” mentality of hers. It’s stupid endearing. (Like May Wong from Kalaedo Star when she just yells out random move names.) 

I also want to like Jiji but I didn’t think he’d come in so late in the series. He’s stupid Ishikawa Kaito that looks good but is a bumbling fool and he seems genuine, so I can’t hate him. I do want to see him and Okarun be actual friends, because that’s what I came into the series for. 

Needs more Turbo Baba!!!! I can’t get enough of Mayumi Tanaka being an absolute shit gremlin. 

I’d also thought Seiko baba was going to be a bigger presence. Like I thought we would have to rely on her more, me expecting her to swoop in every time they’re in a pinch to save the kiddos, but she doesn’t. Which is good actually.

But then I question how strong Momo and crew are. In episode 2 Momo was literally beating into a stone wall, and I could assume that she had a pretty good physic barrier to help her lessen the impact, but she literally was just a human before. Also when she tossed Aira’s two lackeys into the junk, that looked really really harsh, like girl those are regular people. Okarun not physically being able to keep up with Turbo Ba’s spirit and powers makes sense but I feel like the anime doesn’t show him wearing down or breakin down as much. We do see him training up after, but I don’t think there’s much time to see him down and needing recover.

Anyway, Momo best girl. She has the heart of a shounen protagonist, sees that people are in trouble or can see the good in them, but is a whole girl with her ideal fashion/ image and feelings.

While reading some Star wars prequel trilogy fanfictions I suddenly realise something. Prequel's fans use mando'a in the same way anime's fans use Japanese.

It's fascinating. How many of theses fans where anime's fans before? How many correspondance between the 2 vocabulary can we find?

Let's try with some of the most common terms used.

Mando'a (English) => Japanese used by anime's fans (not always in the original or correct meaning in Japanese but one I have often see the past 20 years.)

ba'buir (grandfather, grandmother)=> Baba (old woman), Jiji (old man), ojii-san (grand father), obaa-san (grand mother). In the two cases the terms are also used to design any old people.

ba'vodu (uncle, aunt)=> oji-san (uncle), oba-san (aunt).

beskad/kad (slightly curved, pointed saber of Mandalorian iron/saber, sword) => Katana

buir (parent/father / mother)=> otou-san (father), okaa-san (mother)

cabur (guardian, protector)=> depending of the situation it could be the same think than ba'vodu or buir

copikla (charming, cute (babies and animals - never women unless you want your head ripped off)) => Kawaii or moe except it's totally ok tu used this word for woman.

cyare (beloved, loved, popular) => i know there is one but I can remember it right now. Maybe the habit of people to use the honorific sama for the man or hime for the woman to show the characters are love interest?

di'kut (idiot, useless individual, waste of space) => baka

Gedet'ye (Please)=> Onegaishimasu, onegai

Gev (Stop it!)=>yameru or yamete kudasai

Ka'ra (stars - ancient Mandalorian myth - ruling council of fallen kings) => Kami-sama

kih'vod (little brother/sister ?) =>imouto and otouto

mandokarla (having the "right stuff", showing guts and spirit, the state of being the epitome of Mando virtue) => kakkoii (“good-looking”, “handsome”, “cool in a manly way”, they totally used the 2 terms in the sames way)

mesh'la (beautiful) => bishounen and bishoujo

Me'ven? (Huh? What? ) => nani?

Ne'johaa! (Shut up!) =>urusai ("Noisy", "Loud", "Annoying" or "Fussy". In some context heavily implied they need to just shut up)

Ni ceta (sorry (lit: I kneel) grovelling apology - rare) => sumimasen or gomenasai and other variations

ori'jate/jate (exelent/good) => sugoi

ori'vod (big brother, older brother, special friend) => onii-san, ani-ki, sempai, onee-chan and all the others variations.

osik (dung, shit)=> kuso !

Oya! (Many meanings: literally "Let's hunt!" and also "Stay alive!", but also Hoorah!, "Go you!", "Cheers!" Always positive and triumphant.)=> Yatta!

Re'turcye mhi (Goodbye - lit. "Maybe we'll meet again")=>sayounara

Su cuy'gar (Hello - lit. "You're still alive.") => konichiwa, ohaoyou, kombanwa

verd'ika (private (rank of a soldier)) => kouhai (it's the younger student or less experience worker in a company in the relation sempai/kouhai. The meaning are different but I think it's often used in the same way. With ori'vod used in the place of sempai. )

vod (comrade, "mate", brother, sister) => nakama (especially in the one piece fandom. They probably could make a contest with the star wars fandom to see who will use vod or nakama the most often.)

Vor'e! (Thanks!) => arrigato

I'm pretty sure there is a lot of other exemples. I hope my rambling was not too incomprehensible. My English is not always very good. And my japanese is almost inexistant. But, bloody hell, this think hit me yesterday evening like a train and I need to vent it somewhere to get it out of my head.

Taking the note of the waters, her ears twitched at the ludicrous number of orders they wanted. This wasn’t for a to go either. So it would only stand to reason that these two planed to eat 20 of their largest option each. No way they’d be able to finish such a large meal. Not unless they were secretly shark people that is. Nevertheless, the boy didn’t seem to mispronunciate or correct himself so she wrote down the order. Not making any comment on the matter as to not be rude.

Though just as she turned to give the order, she heard the boy speak up again. Apologizing for the tournament as though he had something to do with it when it was nothing more than some crazy bug guy wanting to fight.

Turning around to face him again, she gave him a look of slight puzzlement but intrigue with his proposition.

“You don’t have to be sorry.” She started, “My Jiji says this isn’t the first bought of evil that’s come to earth. Though he might not be the last, he says there’s always been someone to bring balance.” She offered the boy a gentle smile before rushing back to the kitchen. Unfortunately, their quiet was short lived, as her grandparents both let out a perplexed sound. No one in the history of this restaurant has ever made such a tall order before. In fact, they weren’t sure they had enough vegetables to make such a dish.

“Angel dear,” said her Jiji as he and Baba began to prep, he wrote a small list with a free hand and slid it to her. “If you could go to your spot and make these for us, you’d be saving the day for us.” Despite the hectic action going on, he made sure to give her a gentle loving tone. With her tail waging once more, this time in antisipation to help them, she nodded, grabbed her basket, and rushed outside.

Though the town was a mini concrete jungle, a small part had been pealed away near one of the front window by the side of the building. This was so the little girl could provide for her family when times were hard or when supplies were low.

Looking at her list, she put her hands deep in the dirt before an earthly green glow omitted from the ground and plants from her list sprouted and fully fruited within minutes. And just like that, she picked the vegetables from their vines, placed them in her basket, and rushed back in to the kitchen.

“Thank you sweet fox.” Her Jiji said patting on the head before giving her permission to go till their orders were finished. So with that, she washed her hands, and sat by the front counter. Though wanting to talk to the boy, she wasn’t too sure what to talk about.

Young & Powerful

A few days since the dreaded Cell Games were announced, the fairly old owners of a popular but not well known restaurant known as the Seven Lucky Star were debating on whether or not they should send their adopted child somewhere safe. They all couldn’t afford moving (sure the planet was to be destroyed but what if this Cell only meant part of it?) and leaving the restaurant they spent their whole lives building would break them. But their little Angel was still just a child. She had a chance. Maybe someone had a bunker they could let her stay in? But just as her curious ears wandered to their conversation leading them to make the heartbreaking decision. The bell to their front door opened.

All of their regular customers had rightfully gone to shelter themselves. So they were more than curious to see who it was who would want to come at this dreaded time. But we’re pleasantly surprised to find a young boy and his father wandering in. The blond hair was a little odd, but their little girl had hair of fire and features of a little fox so they couldn’t simply judge them on how they looked.

“Welcome gentlemen,” said the older women “We apologize for the lack of atmosphere but the announcement of this upcoming tournament has gotten everyone rattled to say the least. Please make yourselves comfortable, our waiter will be right over.”

Taking a couple of menus, her notepad, and after a gentle reassuring from her “grandpa”. The girl no older than 12, walked up to the customers. “Can I get anything for you two to drink?” She asked. Her tone though timid still loud enough for her customers to her hear. And while she did her best to keep eye contact, these weren’t the usual people she was used to seeing on a daily basis. Not to mention this was the first time someone her age had come to the restaurant. A tiny blush covered a bit of her cheeks as she waited for them to answer. Upon this being the first customer her own age, he was kinda cute she had cute she had to admit. Her tail that hid under her sky blue and white dress swished a little. Causing the bottom of it to flutter in the manmade breeze.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Shiro pulled the simulator into the school lot and straightened his uniform as he stepped out of the vehicle. Visits like this were always hard. He loved showing kids what he did. Seeing their eyes light up with a shared passion was exhilarating, but the kids he was seeing were twelve. The same age as Keith would be. And part of him always expected Keith to be in the class he was meeting, and part of him was always let down. He bolstered himself, remembering the kiss Adam had laid on his cheek that morning and the promise that he would be waiting for him at home. He had always hoped Keith would have liked Adam. Baba and Jiji had. Focus, Shirogane, he told himself, and he walked into the building to sign himself in at the office.

Shiro politely knocked on the classroom door. The teacher let him in, and he stood at the front of the class. He surveyed the children as she introduced him. Most sat up and looked at him with bright eager eyes. Except for one.

The kid was small for twelve. Scrawny. Messy black hair that looked uncared for. There was an angry slump in his shoulders as he stared out the window with a him against the world attitude. He looked like Keith, from this angle. He told his heart to calm down. It couldn't be. It had never been before. Still even if it wasn't Keith... maybe he could do something to help this kid. The teacher introduced him. "Takashi Shirogane," she said, and the kid's head whipped forward. "Keith," Shiro said, like the name had been punched out of him.

Keith looked away from him, anger on his face. Shiro didn't understand, but he wasn't going to let that stop him. "Keith," he said again. He walked quickly down the rows of desks, apologizing to students as he bumped into them. He stood directly in Keith's view, obscuring the window, but Keith turned his face away again. He reached out a tentative hand to touch Keith's shoulder. Keith jerked away immediately, and Shiro winced. 

"Keith," he said. "I've been looking for you for years." His voice broke, and he could feel tears start to fall down his face. "Look at me, please," he said softly. He wanted to hug him and never let him go; but Keith was angry now, for reasons Shiro couldn't fathom, and he had always been particular about touch. It was best not to, even though it was breaking his heart. This was the opposite of realizing Owen was dead and Keith was missing. That had been numb disbelief. This was a cascade, washing over Shiro's body and soul. 

Keith finally looked at him. His face was wrinkled in upset and confusion. "Keith... I..." Shiro started and stopped, unsure of what to say. "Would you come to the office with me? We're going to get this sorted out, I swear." He locked eyes with Keith, faintly aware that he had made a scene and the whole classroom was staring, but he didn't care. This was Keith. His nephew. And from the looks of it, he had a rough time of things. Shiro was going to fix that.

"Alright," Keith agreed, finally breaking his silence.

Shiro stepped back so Keith could get out of his desk. He still looked angry, and now that he was standing, Shiro could see that he was even smaller than he thought. Was he eating enough? What were the symptoms of malnutrition? Shiro looked at the shell shocked class. 

"Mrs. Johnson," he said politely, "I'm afraid that this is a family emergency, and the presentation will have to be moved. The Garrison will be in contact." He held the door open for Keith and stepped into the hallway. Shiro ignored the dull roar that crescendoed and faded behind them in the classroom. 

"You don't want a hug, do you?" Shiro asked for confirmation. Keith's sullen look told him all he needed to know. Shiro would get a hug from Adam. He'd be okay. 

"Keith, I..." He realized he'd neglected to ask the most important question, even though he felt like he knew the answer. "Keith, do you want to come home with me? If you're happy where you are, we can work something out." He wasn’t doing a good job of hiding his emotions, he knew. He wanted Keith to come home with him desperately. It'd been five years, and he'd missed him. He doubted Keith was happy where he was, but if Keith told him that he loved his foster family, that he wanted to be adopted, Shiro would... well, he wouldn’t walk away. He'd visit. He’d call every day. But he wouldn’t push away something that wass good for him.

"What do you want from me?" Keith asked bluntly. "Cut the bullshit." 

Shiro felt like he’d been slapped. He blinked. "Want... from... you?" he repeated. What did that mean? "I want you to come home?" he said. It sounded like a question. "No," he corrected himself. "I do want you to come home," he said more strongly, "but it's been five years, and I don't know where you've been, and if you're really happy where you are, I don't want to take you from that by force. I just-" He choked on air and tried to stop his chest from convulsing. Tears ran hot and thick down his face- "I can't believe I found you." 

"I... I don't understand," Keith responded. Shiro couldn’t see Keith’s expression through his own tears.  "I know what you want immediately. What do you want from me? Everyone has an alt-urior motive."

Shiro tried to listen, he really did, but Keith wasn't making sense. "I don't understand," Shiro said. "Want from you? I want you to be happy. I want you to be safe. I want to see you be happy and safe. Is... is that what you mean?" he asked tentatively. God, he wanted Adam. Adam would be better at this. Keith was so different from his seven-year-old self. Shiro wasn't sure how to approach him. He was like a porcupine, prickly all over. Shiro wiped the tears off his face with his sleeve. Disrespecting the uniform! the tiny Iverson in his head yelled, but his vision was clear enough to see Keith’s face. 

"Is it money? Do you need someone to do your chores? Nobody does things just to help someone else," Keith pressed. His eyes were narrowed suspiciously. 

Shiro swore under his breath. Money? Chores? What had these people been doing to him?

"Keith, I don't know how to convince you that I don't have an ulterior motive. I'm going to do my best to show it to you, okay? But, I don't think there's anything I can say that will convince you.”

Shiro took a breath. "For now, I just want you to answer one question for me. Would you be willing to live with me?" He waited with baited breath for an answer. If Keith said no, he wasn't sure he could honor that. He was now certain that Keith was living in a bad situation, and he would raise hell to have it investigated if he had to. 

Keith shrugged noncommittally. "Whatever," he responded. Shiro sagged in relief when Keith said he'd live with him. He wasn't enthusiastic, but Shiro would take it. 

"Wait, don't you live in the Garrison?" Keith asked. 

Shiro ran a hand through his hair. "Sort of? I'm- We- are in the process of moving into Baba and Jiji's house." He paused and took another deep breath. "Keith, there's something I need to tell you." 

Just then, a security guard marched up to them. "Sir, you can't be alone with a student. You need to come to the office with me." 

Shiro nodded. "I understand. Keith?"
