i’ll find you again in every universe. let us be a little more honest, let us have a little more time.
#vashwood#vash the stampede#nicholas d wolfwood#trigun#despite it all though badlands rumble is like. the only universe where we get wolfwood thinking vash died first... and i think that means a#lot to their relationship and how it may bloom if there was more to badlands rumble considering vash literally saw wolfwood carrying a piece#of vash after his supposed death. u know! despite the short time they were together vash still meant so much to wolfwood that he couldn't#just move on or forget him in anyway. needed to keep a piece of him for himself and the rest of his days. but ofc vash lives and wolfwood#was like ill beat ur fucking ass into tomorrow. there's just so much honesty in vash being able to see that gesture bc he wouldnt know#otherwise just how much he might mean to him. ANYWAY. trimax with with the eternal pining featuring the two chapters where imo#where the both of them really fell for each other... i wrote my thoughts about this on another comic i did before#but vash solidifying his feelings during the hospital arc -- ww solidifies his when he realizes his allegiances are permanently with vash#98 my lovelies but also to me they are so one-sided bc ww pined like no tomorrow and vash only realizes after ep 23?24? his heart did tickle#whenever ww complimented his smile though#and tristamp vw my beloveds. it really just feels like they get the chance to be closer and closer and more honest with each other#with every version that comes about. in trimax they knew how little time they had but struggled so desperately to get closer. in 98 ww felt#more willing to forsake for vash. in badlands rumble theyre Angry but as mentioned earlier ^ more blatant truth... due to circumstances#mainly but has the chance to lead to discussions and tristamp literally. first day of knowing each other ww saves vash - 2 days later vash#saves ww like. Man. AND NOW THEY MAY POTENTIALLY GET EVEN CLOSER!!!! with s2....#ruporas art

#witch hat tag#orufrey#these kinda suck lol i feel like i cant draw right now *irritated sigh* BUT I FEEL EMOTIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#if you are gay go watch good omens season 2 right now. NO YOU DONT KNOW THO!!!!!!!!!#i know being this affected by good omens is probably cringe. I dont care any more. the last 1 minute of good omens season 2 was#some of the most affecting acting i've ever seen in my life. sometimes someone acts with the force as if their entire career led to that#like during the credits part the very end im not even talking about before that. holy god#aziraphale i know everything about you. i know what you are feeling right now. i can see everything on your face. we're going to make it#ER....

IN MY LIFE!#tormented gay love tormented gay love TORMENTED GAY LOVE TORMENTED GAY LOVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#btw the first 3 images were drawn earlier with an entirely different feeling and an entirely different mood.#Why do you keep pulling away from me?#It is because i love you that i do this#the lyrics from one of my japanese orufrey songs (A SONG THAT THE CREATOR LISTENS TO!!!!) led to feelings#“あなたが知らない私を残さず見ててほしいの” but i'm not translating it cause it just sounds weird. if with his eyes oru's asking “WHY don't you want#to let me in? to see all of you?“ those lyrics are like ”I actually want you to see every last bit of the parts of me you don't know“#oru you have no idea how much i want to lay bare my whole soul for you#maybe it's an alternate version of chapter 40. to me#i need to draw something really fucking good or i'm not going to forgive myself. i will not rest in this life#until i have made the orufrey that fully satisfies me nor until i have seen what the manga is leading to#NO STORY MEANS ANYTHING WITHOUT TORMENTED GAY LOVE AT THE HEART OF IT.

i don't really get nana haters who use her leaving kotarou behind as something against her like she's a bad person for doing that. you can make unfortunate decisions and still be a good person. like what the fuck else was she supposed to do? can i remind you that she was being hunted down by a maniac who was literally killing OFA users' entire families and all of their associates just out of pettiness AND already had her husband killed? why is she the bus driver for not seeing any other way to ensure his safety and not AFO for being a freak?
'she wants deku to erase her mistake' - no, she doesn't want to ADD to her mistake and sacrifice another child to try and fix the first one. i thought caring about not accidentally killing kids for our righteous causes is a good thing?
i don't know where this 'she wants izuku to kill shigaraki' narrative came from either because it was shown multiple times that no, she does not actually want that. in fact, she very much WANTS izuku to save him. but she's someone who always puts aside her own wishes for the sake of the world and other people (in this case, izuku's life).
#even in this chapter the point made wasn't that she shouldn't have given kotarou away at all but that she failed him by not coming back#bnha#bnha spoilers#bnha 417#shimura nana#not to mention that she witnessed first-hand what AFO does to OFA users he catches#and like. i'm fairly sure that she had a kid BEFORE being given ofa not after#it's not like she planned this shit

HOW IS BUY BACK THE SECRETS GOING. YOU TOOK MY HEART AND SHOVED IT THROUGH A GARLIC CRUSHER WITH THAT LAST CHAPTER BTW
it’s going well!! everything i outlined/zerodrafted before hitting the final chapter still holds up with minimal reworking, and as i’ve been drafting actual scenes i’ve come up with even more moments that i’m excited about.
sorry for your heart, i promise it will get un-crushed soon 🧄
#though it might get crushed a bit more first. before the un-crushing#asks#my fic#even though i arrived at this chapter with the most preparation/know exactly what happens i think i’ll be most nervous to finish this one#just because i’ll want to stick the landing as much as possible#but i’m having fun!

It's all about Nagi living alone in a tiny one bedroom, one bathroom apartment with zero personality and Reo having a whole floor for himself but still living surrounded by tacky-expensive home decor with no apparent traces of his actual personality, either. It's all about how Nagi's parents haven't visited him in 2 years nor taken an interest in his life since, while Reo's are content to live floors apart from their teenage son, only taking an interest in what value he can bring to Mikage Corp but being otherwise uninvolved in / dismissive of his actual life. It's all about them being surrounded by people and still not knowing how to form a meaningful connection with another person before meeting each other. It's all about them being so starved for genuine human warmth to combat their bone-deep loneliness that they both treasure memories of tiny, inconsequential moments where they were spending time with their parents. Something something it's this line,
and how it describes them both despite being said about Reo. It's them being awkward 17-year-olds who had never before had an equal who would just respect them as they are and unconditionally look their way. In this essay I will-
#Blue lock#Blue lock spoilers#Mikage reo#Nagi seishirou#Bllk thoughts#This chapter was sooooo good#Gosh. Just as I was grumpy about epinagi getting boring without all the emotional deep dives that made it so interesting in the first place#They go and give us this bonus chapter. What a feast#I wish every month could be like this#This gave so much perspective to why they are the way they are#Most of it is not new information but I really loved all the foiling in this omake#Truly drives it home how both get their drive from their partnership bc they crave meaningful connections#Like. I had a whole post about how they're both each other first friend#And even then it couldn't have prepared me to the reveal of reo living in a whole ass empty skyscraper by himself#Did you also notice the distinct lack of soccer paraphernalia in his house or was that just me#Heck there isn't even a single soccer ball in sight...#And he calls Nagi's room void#Gosh they're both so fascinating#Of course they're bored out of their mind before meeting each other. Imagine being that understimulated and that lonely#I'm surprised they're this functional tbh. If anything they should be More mentally ill#I sure would lose it after a week at Reo's place#At least nagi owns mangas come on

Going Through The Motions: Bonus Bits
Hi all! I'll keep this quick but we recently hit 4k hits on Going Through The Motions! I can't believe it! Thank you all for reading my silly little fic.
As thanks, I went through my cut content document and polished up these missing scenes from Chapter Four: Help. I originally wrote full scenes of Scout asking each merc for help but decided it was going to make an already long chapter too long and it was a bit repetitive so I cut it down to the basics.
These scenes take place between Scout asking Engie for help and asking Spy for help. Thank you to the lovely @gingerale13 for proofreading! Enjoy!
Demo finished his list of names on the blackboard and put a cross next to Engie’s name.
“Alright, next up is…”
***
“Heavy?” Scout asked, knocking on the man’s door. “Can we come in? I need your help.”
“Da. Just cleaning Sasha. Door is unlocked. Do not touch gun.”
Scout hesitantly opened the door to see Heavy sitting on the floor of his room, surrounded by gun parts, focused on cleaning the barrel.
Scout shot a nervous look at Demo who nodded.
Honestly, Scout doubted Heavy would be able to help him, but he had to make his way through the list.
“What is problem?” Heavy asked, not looking up from his task.
Scout slowly sat down, cross-legged across from him, making an effort not to touch Sasha.
How would he even explain this? Scout knew that with Heavy, you had to be blunt.
“I need your help. I’m stuck living in a loop of the same day.”
Heavy merely raised an eyebrow and continued cleaning.
“So you come to me for joke?”
Scout blinked, leaning away from Heavy.
“What? No! Nonono! Heavy it ain’t a joke! I'm actually in a time loop! Tell him Demo!”
Demo sat down next to Scout with a sigh.
“It’s all true, Heavy. Swear on my mum’s life.”
Heavy hummed to himself, as he gently placed the barrel down and started cleaning the rotor.
“And you come to me because you have no other options.”
It was not a question, but a statement of fact.
“How did you…?”
“Little Scout would not willingly come to me for help with magic problem unless no options are available. So you come to Heavy.”
Scout bit his lip with a frown as he looked away.
Heavy was smarter than Scout gave him credit for. The team always saw him as a big gun-obsessed Russian. Maybe there was more to him than Scout originally thought.
“Yeah, but–”
“Heavy,” Demo interrupted, holding a hand out in front of Scout to shut him up. “Have you noticed anything off with Scout during the last couple of days or weeks? Or just… anything noteworthy that could change things?”
Heavy was silent as he slowly started reassembling his gun.
“Cannot think of anything. Little Scout is little Scout as always,” he eventually commented. “I have suggestions but do not think little Scout would listen.”
“Suggestions?” Scout’s ears perked up. “What do you have for me, big guy?”
Heavy sighed as he continued to skillfully put Sasha back together.
“Understand that team is looking out for little Scout and is not babying him. Understanding others’s motives is good thing for strong team, da?”
Scout sighed.
“Yeah, I know,” he responded dejectedly. “Been through enough loops of you telling me that to get it through my thick skull.”
Heavy was unperturbed.
“Team is only as strong as weakest link. When one succeeds, all succeed.”
That made sense, Scout guessed. No ‘i’ in team and all that.
But Scout already knew this from his baseball days! How was this supposed to help?!
“Anythin’ else?”
Heavy was silent again as he finished up his assembly. Sasha stood proud in front of Scout, ready for action.
As Scout stared at the gun, Heavy finally turned his gaze over to Scout and assessed him.
“Teamwork requires communication. Speak to Sniper.”
“What?!”
“You have been avoiding Sniper. I have seen it. Speak to Sniper.”
Scout spluttered, trying to come up with a response.
“He’s right lad,” Demo spoke up. “Even I have noticed you’re avoiding him and I’m drunk half the time!”
Was that why Engie had suggested it yesterday? Had he also noticed and decided not to be as blunt as Heavy?
No! He couldn’t risk it! He barely got through that awkward conversation when he tried to give Sniper a compliment! Why would he decide to do that again?!
“I… I’ll do it, tomorrow,” Scout lied.
Heavy nodded.
“Very good. Is there anything else Heavy can do to help?”
“Don’t think so. Thanks, big guy.”
Heavy smiled and nodded. He stood up and picked up Sasha. Scout took that as his cue to leave.
Quietly, Scout stood up and Demo went to follow. He opened the door as Demo slipped through.
Scout threw a look over his shoulder to see Heavy starting to clean his supplies, before shutting the door behind him.
Scout turned to see Demo looking at him. Silently, they both turned and started to walk down the hallway.
“So, tomorrow you’ll talk to Sniper, right?” Demo asked, breaking the silence.
Scout quickly wiped the scowl off his face before Demo could notice.
“Yep!” Scout lied.
***
“So we’ve talked to Engie and Heavy? We’re making good time,” Demo commented.
“I guess,” Scout responded. “So who’s next?”
***
“Hey Medic, got a minute?”
Medic’s head snapped up from the corpse he was experimenting on and looked at Scout as he and Demo pushed the doors to the infirmary open.
“Herr Scout, you know where the plasters are. You do not need my help to put one on.”
“No, it’s not that.”
Medic sighed.
“What is it then? Herr Demo might need my help and you are wasting my valuable time.”
Demo shook his head.
“No doc, I’m fine,” he responded. “Scout needs your help, though.”
“Verdammt. What is it?”
Demo gave Scout an encouraging nod as Medic continued to operate on the corpse. Scout let out a nervous breath.
Of course, he was nervous about this! He knew what Medic did last time Scout told him about the loop!
“I need you to promise me you won’t try to give me meds this time, okay?”
“…This time?”
“Just promise, okay?”
Medic shot Scout a confused look but slowly nodded.
“Ja, okay, I promise.”
Scout sighed.
Good enough, he guessed.
“I’m in a time loop,” Scout blurted out. “If you can help me that’d be great. Have you noticed anything off with me in the last couple of days?”
Medic blinked, processing the stream of speech that was directed at him.
His scalpel slipped out of his hand and into the corpse’s rib cage as he turned his head to look at Demo who had a serious expression on his face. Medic turned back to Scout.
“O…kay?” Medic eventually answered, picking up the scalpel. “Am I to understand you have been experiencing the same day on repeat?”
Scout nodded.
“Yeah. Demo suggested I talk to everyone and see if they can help.”
“Really, we just want to see if there’s something Scout can change that I haven’t already noticed,” Demo helpfully added.
Medic looked up at Demo through his eyelashes.
“And what have you noticed, Herr Demo?”
Demo said nothing, staring at the doctor. Medic frowned and tilted his head.
As the two seemingly had a silent conversation among themselves, only nodding and pulling faces, Scout bit his lip.
“Uh… I can go if you want,” Scout spoke up.
“No need, Herr Scout,” Medic replied with a bloody wave. “I was just making sure Herr Demo and I are on the same page.”
“Okay then. Can you help me? You’re smart – surely you can think of something!”
Medic put a hand to his chin in thought.
“Unfortunately, I can’t think of anything major that could break this loop you speak of,” he mused as he placed the scalpel he was using down and reached towards Scout. “Unless you let me look at your brain and the observable effects under the loop–”
“Nuh-uh! No way!” Scout interrupted, slapping one of Medic’s hands away. “Besides, you wouldn’t even fuckin’ remember it!”
“Ja, but how often do I get to observe the synapses of a brain undergoing extreme stress and magic? Oh! I wonder if brain activity would remain the same as the previous loop! Or would it change as you are experiencing a different flow of time?”
“You’re scarin’ the lad, doc,” Demo piped up.
Medic laughed as Scout staggered backwards.
“Just imagine…” Medic said to himself.
Scout frowned slightly. He wasn’t going to get much more out of Medic which was somehow both a blessing and a curse.
“I… I’m gonna go. If you can think of anything that can get me out, let me know before midnight.”
That conversation seemed pretty quick and painless. Scout wondered if the conversations with the rest of the team would be the same.
As Scout turned to leave, Medic perked up.
“Ah, Herr Scout?” Medic spoke up.
Goddamn it.
Scout silently begged for this conversation not to go where he thought it was going to go.
“Yeah?”
“Have you spoken to Herr Sniper about this?”
Fuck.
What was everyone's obsession with him speaking with Sniper?! Scout avoiding Sniper wasn’t that bad, was it?
“Oh um… he’s later down on our list. I-I’ll talk to him then.”
Medic nodded approvingly
“Good, good. I recommend you speak to him earlier. He might have seen something similar to this during his career.”
Scout frowned.
“Why don’t I speak to Spy then? He’s way older and has probably seen more shit.”
“The man is… Scheiße, what’s the word in English?”
“A prick?” Scout suggested.
“Secretive,” Demo offered.
“Ja! Secretive! He does not like to share details of his past. Although…”
Demo cleared his throat.
“One problem at a time, doc,” Demo interrupted.
“But it might–”
“Doc, not our place to say, remember?”
Scout blinked.
“Are youse hiding something from me?”
Demo and Medic made an obvious effort to look away from Scout, who was starting to feel very left out.
“Okay… You don’t gotta tell me anything. Just figured it might help break this loop quicker,” Scout muttered.
Demo sighed.
“Sorry lad. If we told you, he’d probably kill us.”
What?
“Even if you won’t remember tomorrow?”
“Herr Scout, drop it,” Medic snapped.
Scout recoiled and stared at the two men.
“Alright, alright! I’ll go! I’ll leave you two to your secrets, assholes.”
With a scoff, Scout sulked off to his room.
Quietly Demo shook his head at Medic.
“Plan B,” he whispered.
“Ah, I see. Good luck getting him to speak to Herr Sniper. He’s stubborn as a mule.”
Demo groaned.
“It’s gotta happen sooner or later. Either way, are we still good for drinks tomorrow?”
“Ja. Heavy found a new bar that’s opened in town that we haven’t been banned from yet!”
***
“This would be more effective if I could remember these previous conversations,” Demo muttered, drawing crosses next to Engie, Heavy and Medic’s names.
“Yeah, well, they’re not very helpful,” Scout said, trying to decipher the names on the blackboard. “Are you sure about this one?”
“Well, who do you go to for a fantastical scenario? That’s right, you go to…”
***
“Pyro! Hey buddy, are you free right now?”
“Mmph! Mm-Mmph! Mm!”
Scout and Demo walked inside and sat down at Pyro’s tea party table.
Now, this conversation should be nice and quick, right?
“Pyro, I need some help from you.”
“Mph mm?”
“Yeah. You see, Merasmus cursed me to live the same day over and over again.”
“Mm-mmph!”
“I know, buddy. He said that I can only break it when I make a huge change to myself, but I don’t know what else to change. Have you noticed anything I need to change?”
Pyro was silent before they jumped up from their seat and ran over to their bed where Balloonicorn was resting.
They thrust Balloonicorn into Scout’s arms for a hug, bouncing slightly.
Honestly, Scout couldn’t say no to Pyro. He awkwardly wrapped his arms around the plush toy and squeezed. Demo snorted from next to him.
“Does Balloonicorn know how to break the curse?” Scout hesitantly asked from his hug.
Pyro shook their head.
“Mph mmphmm mph mph mmph mmphmm!”
“He wanted me to feel better?”
Pyro nodded.
“But you and Balloonicorn don’t know what else I could change?”
Pyro deflated slightly and shook their head.
“Mmph.”
“No, it’s okay. We haven’t had much luck with the others either.”
Pyro looked away and started tapping their foot.
“Mmph mph mmph mmphmph?”
Not this again.
“What’d they say, lad?” Demo asked.
Was this coordinated?! How much did the team talk about Scout and Sniper behind their backs?
“They asked if I had spoken to Sniper yet. We’re doin’ that tomorrow.”
Pyro cheered and clapped their hands before going in to give Scout a bone-crushing hug. Scout gave a small smile and pat Pyro on the back.
As he turned to walk back into the hallway, Scout’s smile slipped off his face and was replaced with a scowl.
He was running out of time and excuses.
***
“Okay, so we’ve talked to Engie, Heavy, Medic and Pyro. Now we’re onto the S’s. Are you ready to speak to…”
“Actually Demo? I fucked up. We spoke to Sniper yesterday. I just forgot to tell you,” Scout lied.
He didn’t want to risk anything.
The way things currently were with Sniper was fine, Scout told himself.
He didn’t want to scare Sniper away thanks to some dumb feelings he had.
“…Why did you…?”
“I just forgot,” Scout responded. “All these talks with everyone are kinda blending into one. Sniper didn’t know shit and it was so similar to our convo with Heavy that I kinda just… forgot one. Sorry.”
Demo was silent, drumming his fingers on the table.
“Sniper didn’t say anything helpful?”
“Nah. It sucks but he didn’t know anything to help.”
One little white lie couldn’t hurt, right?
Demo sighed and turned back to the blackboard, drawing a cross next to Sniper’s name. He muttered something under his breath Scout didn’t catch.
“Alright then. Today we’ll be speaking to…”
***
“Soldier?” Scout called, knocking on the door
“Atten…tion!”
Demo leaned into Scout space.
“…Do we salute or…?” Demo asked.
Scout shrugged as he knocked again.
“Solly, can we come in? I need your help.”
“Affirmative, Private Second-Class! You may enter!”
Scout pushed the door open to reveal Soldier doing push-ups in the centre of the room.
Scout blinked at the sight in front of him. Did the guy ever rest?!
“At ease, Soldiers!” Soldier ordered, getting to his feet. “You requested aid?!”
Scout shot a hesitant look at Demo before turning back to Soldier.
“Uh… yeah, I did, Solly. I need your help. I’m stuck in a time loop and can’t get out. Is there anything you think I need to change about myself that could break the loop?”
Solider hummed as he put a finger to his chin and tapped his foot.
“Have you spoken to Merasmus about this?”
“Affirmativ- I mean, yeah, but he wasn’t able to crack it! He suggested I find something I needed to change, but I can’t find anything else! I’ve won so many matches, I’ve been to your boot camp so many times, I don’t fuckin’ know what else to do!”
Soldier frowned.
“Then, I have got nothing to offer.”
Scout deflated. He was starting to get sick and tired of this song and dance.
“Alright, thanks, Solly.”
As they turned to leave, Scout could see out of the corner of his eye, Soldier perk up.
“Private second class!”
Oh no. If this was about–
“Have you informed the Sniper?”
Scout blinked, saying nothing, and just glaring at the corner of the room.
“P-private second class?” Soldier asked, sounding hesitant for the first time since Scout had met him.
Scout ignored him, robotically turning and leaving without saying a word, leaving both Soldier and Demo dumbfounded.
“What is wrong with Private second-class?” Soldier turned to Demo.
Demo sighed.
“Janey, he’s been doing this for fifty-nine days. All things considered, I’m surprised he hasn’t plumb given up.”
“Hm… His determination is admirable! When he fixes this, I think I will give him a rank-up! And a medal!”
“You do that, Janey.”

special operatives (silly interaction beneath read more)
[ID: Digital Art in color of Trigun Maximum, characters included are Wolfwood, Elendira, and Legato in a casual meeting situation. The piece consists of orangey yellow lighting and purple shadows. Wolfwood sits on the left side, facing Elendira who’s on the right. He’s seated on a plain wooden chair with one knee up and he’s holding the strap to his Punisher in his left hand while his right sits against his thigh, He has an irritated expression as he speaks to Elendira. Elendira is sitting in a fancier seat, her right arm rests against Wolfwood’s propped up knee, her left hand holds her suitcase. She’s sitting cross legged with an amused expression. Legato can be seen in the back at the center of the image in his mobile body case, one of his eyes shown to be glaring at Wolfwood. End ID]
[ID: Sketch, uncolored comic. Elendira says to Wolfwood, “I’m not telling you to dedicate yourself to him, but just accept the situation at hand. We could get along better if we were on the same page.” Wolfwood responds, “Don’t peg me me for an optimist. I’m not dumb. But, I’m also not going to just live in resignation. Plus, I don’t have any interest in getting along with ya.” Elendira coos, “Aw, you sure? I have a wonderful shoulder to cry on when the weak people you’re trying to protect eventually dies in the coming months. Though, I guess it’s fine. Someone like you might just die before then anyway...” She snickers in her hand while Wolfwood is speechless and just glares. Legato is faintly drawn in the back, glaring at Wolfwood, muttering “worthless” repetitively. End ID]

BC IT WAS ELENDIRA THE CRIMSONAIL. he was starstruckk it was so cute#elendira of all people deserve that kind of reaction though im glad that they hyped it up with ww of all people. bc its like wow even ww is#kind of intimidated! even though he gained his grips like 5 seconds later to talk back to her. which is why i think theyd have a funny#dynamic. and legato is just there. he does not care about them but he also hates them and it's fun to think about how that'd extend to#wolfwood after knives specifically left the gung hos up to him and then explicitly didnt say shit after giving ww a special little mission#it also is just like. legato is pretty passive in trimax until someone is actively betraying knives or when its vash#and ww also does not give a shit about legato bc he also is like. vaguely aware he'd lose in a fight. so all i make them do is stare at each#other passive aggressively. TRISTAMP on the otherhand is ridiculously insane for making legato genuinely hold enough aggression towards ww#to literally activate his character arc in the season sgmkdsgm cannot wait for final phase where legato not only deeply detest vash but also#bears a similar aggression towards ww. actually im not sure whether i should be Excited for that or not but it would be an interesting#ruporas art

ok idk if anyones talked about this but i keep wondering just how true this statement is
because we know that girls in saiki k CAN be like that but i dont remember it ever showing with teruhashi and we have scenes like this
where other girls are just as enamored with teruhashi as the guys are (the right panel could theoretically be just like the girls above but i doubt it considering the girl in the left one)
so like how much truth is there to that? ARE they like that with teruhashi or does she just assume they are? does she have good reason to assume they are?
#i also found something interesting while looking for these that i hadnt noticed before#in chapter 5 when teruhashi is asked about when shes going to get a boyfriend- its by GUYS but the anime changed it to girls#so i think the karaoke scene is the first time we see girls being friendly with her?? correct me if im wrong#other than chiyo ofc#not even teruhashi was spared from the animators anti-loser beam 😭#teruhashi 🤝 saiki#anyway yea i would love to know if theres any more info about teruhashis relationship with girls#im not including rifuta cuz shes just a straight up anomaly#girl who was jealous and bitter at first and then realized she was lesbian for her all along? unique experience i fear#unless all these girls in saiki k are lesbians#saiki k#tdlosk#the disastrous life of saiki k.#teruhashi kokomi

people don't realize how shocking is Andrew's "that doesn't mean I wouldn't blow you" because some people read aftg already knowing they end up together (bc of spoilers).
BUT AS A PERSON THAT DID READ THE BOOK JUST THINKING IT WAS A SPORT BOOK, I WAS SHOCKED, TO THE BONE, I FELT LIKE SHOCKING ON MY OWN SPIT, I FELT LIKE THE DISLEXIA WAS ACTING UP, I FELT LIKE I WAS MISUNDERSTANDING, MISREADING SOMETHING.
#all for the game#aftg#andrew minyard#nora sakavic#like why do yall search up books before reading them?#i could never#i read books without even knowing who tf the mc is#i would learn who the mc is later... when they are the only person the book talks about#ALSO it's really hard for me to remember names so i always need to over read the first chapters after knowing everyone's names

patrochilles / fairy tale AU / complete (40k words)
There is a curse. A destiny, as his mother loves to remind him. A war. An unknown future, somewhere out there in the fighting and killing. But here, there is only the sun and the grass and Achilles’s swift feet. Here, there is Patroclus sitting in the shade. Here, Achilles pulls him closer and puts his arms around him, staining their clothes with charcoal dust from sketched out dreams. Patroclus sinks into him heavily. The sound of their breathing is the only thing they can hear, as though the clearing—their clearing— is a shield hiding them from the rest of the world. “Take me with you,” Patroclus tells him at the same time that Achilles says, “Please come with me.”
In the tiny kingdom of Phthia, a golden prince is cursed with invulnerability except for a vulnerable heel. An exile apprenticed to a shoemaker is commissioned by the palace to create a shoe the prince can fight in.
A fairy tale about a curse, a magical shoe, a war, a doomed hero, an exile, destiny, and love despite everything.
#I’m crying it’s done#my little experiment#i wrote the first 3 chapters and posted with an outline in mind#i have NEVER done that before#usually i prewrite the entire thing and then by the time im posting I’ve already moved on and find it hard to reconnect to the writing when#people are commenting on it and stuff#and i was worried I would write this one and lose momentum/motivation/lose the plot#but I didn’t#I wrote it and had fun writing while people were reading and I felt connected to the writing the whole time#and it felt good!! good enough that I did it with my other wip novel which I’m also finishing this weekend#!!!!!!#I did a scary thing and it didn’t fail lol#I’m gona ride this high for the rest of the week#patrochilles#achilles#patroclus#my fics#my writing#I even made a cute cover for it hehe

I got a red string pepe silvia to throw at you, brace
So there was this guy (twirls hair) named Canopus/Kanobus/Κάνωβος. Master helmsman of King Menelaeus during the Trojan War, died to getting bitten by a snake in Egypt, or so the story goes.
Canopus died so magnificently to that snake that he got a city in Egypt named after him, Canopus (nowadays Abu Qir).
Fast forward a few millennia. Some Egyptologists moseying around Canopus the city find a particular regional representation of Osiris, that of the god's head atop the mouth of a vase. This representation does not appear to have been intended to hold viscera.
But you may have heard of vases that were intended to hold viscera, commonly referred to as canopic jars. Why? Because those guys moseying around Canopus thought they were the same thing. Look, early archaeology was kind of rough.
Fast forward again until Games Workshop exists. They got a bunch of not-Tomb Kings brewing that they need to make copywritable names for. Imhotep? Nah, Imotekh. Serekh? Nah, Szarekh. How about "canopic," one of those few words everyone remembers from grade school history? Sure, but add a "-tekh" to the end. Brilliant. Canoptek constructs.
The final step is Nate Crowley. I can tell he did some decent digging for the Twice-Dead King books, but I'd be really surprised if this one was intentional, and if it was, I'm flying to England to buy him a beer.
In The Twice-Dead King: Reign, we meet the Scythe-class harvester ship Failed Harvest, a derelict floater crewed entirely by canoptek constructs merged into a gestalt consciousness. It's the ship Lysikor... you know what, spoilers. Go read it. All you need to know is that this ship full of canopteks is sapient, starfaring, and active on its own accord.
My point being...
#necrons#I got a new book on vacation and haven't even made it through the first chapter before the infinite empire came knocking at my skull#get me outta here man
