⸢Kim Dokja survived through a story called 'Ways of Survival'. In that case, which story allowed us to survive?⸥ Actually, Han Sooyoung already knew the answer to that question. "It's a story I wanted to show to that idiot." A story still remained for them. A story of a person they all loved.

"It would've been so wonderful if we could send this novel to the other world, too. It's a shame that only we get to read it." …The other world? Han Sooyoung became momentarily dazed at that unexpected idea.

DID SOOYOUNG WRITE ORV AND SEND IT INTO THIS WORLD?

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Okay, I guessed quite a few chapters back that she was the author of TWSA but I never thought that she was also the author of ORV even though the novel has been getting very meta in the epilogue. (As well as instances here and there throughout the entire novel.)

At least, I'm almost certain that's what this is all implying. They're literally talking about their first appearances in ORV and wanting to know what happens next to Kim Dokja in the story and so on. It has to be ORV itself.

Oh man, just a few more chapters left. Are we gonna wrap up ORV with ORV? 👀

“thank you for telling me how you really feel” — willy wonka x reader

Summary: you and Willy go on your little day out date, and later that night share a kiss (or two) ;)

Pairing: Timothée!Wonka x fem!reader

Word count: 544

Warnings: again, disgustingly innocent fluff and maybe some typos

Part one here!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

“I can’t believe that actually works.” You marveled, in awe of his scheme that allows him to slip in and out unnoticed by Ms Scrubbit or Bleacher.

“Of course it does, I’ve been doing it for weeks.” Willy replied with a hint of pride, his eyes glinting mischievously.

You shook your head in disbelief, a laugh escaping your lips. Willy, with a confident flourish, guided you through the charming streets of the town. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air as you entered a cozy cafe, the gentle chime of a bell announcing your arrival.

As you sat in the quaint cafe, sipping coffee and exchanging stories, the atmosphere hummed with an undeniable connection between you two. Willy couldn’t help but steal glances at you, his eyes filled with genuine affection.

The day unfolded with a natural ease, the initial nervousness giving way to a comfortable familiarity that hinted at a deeper connection forming between you and Willy. It became evident that this date was more than just a casual outing.

As night fell back at Mrs. Scrubbit’s, you found yourself once again in Willy’s room, a quiet sanctuary full of wonder, that seemed to let you forget about the fact that you were quite literally stuck in this place forever. He handed you a small, heart-shaped chocolate.

“Here, try this one.”

“What does this do?” you asked, eyes searching for clues in his mischievous smile.

“It makes you kiss the chocolatier,” Willy said, his tone playful.

You squinted at him, uncertain of the truth, and popped the chocolate in your mouth. The rich sweetness enveloped your senses, and you sighed with delight as it melted on your tongue. Willy watched with anticipation, a mischievous glint in his eyes.

With a boldness surprising to Willy, you leaned in, placing your lips against his. Tenderly, he kissed you back, his hand finding your waist.

“Yes!” The moment was interrupted by a cheer from the hallway, and both of you turned to see Noodle, her hand over her mouth in realisation.

“Noodle!” Willy scolded, swiftly closing the door on her grinning face.

“Sorry!” She shouted, before backing off into her own bedroom.

You chuckled, the sound echoing in the room as you shared a moment of laughter at Noodle’s unexpected enthusiasm. Willy, holding your waist, finally confessed, “I lied, by the way. There’s nothing in those chocolates.”

Your smile faltered, cheeks flushing red.

“But thank you for telling me how you really feel,” he added, his smile genuine.

As the laughter subsided, a comfortable silence settled between you and Willy in the dimly lit room. The mischievous glint in Willy’s eyes spoke of a shared secret, a connection that had blossomed unexpectedly. Amidst the hushed atmosphere, Willy leaned in once again, his lips meeting yours in another soft, lingering kiss.

As you pulled away, the room seemed to hold the echo of that shared kiss. Willy’s eyes met yours, and in that silent exchange, an understanding passed between you two. It was a chapter in the midst of unfolding.

“Goodnight, Willy,” you whispered.

“Goodnight, Y/N,” he replied, a gentle smile playing on his lips.

With one last stolen glance, you retreated into the hallway, leaving Willy’s room and the intimate atmosphere behind.

daniel copying gap’s technique from jinrang made me think about a certain someone …

… and his mocking mimic of techniques!

jinyoung’s speech about copy without talent seems to indicate that gitae has tried, and failed to emulate gap before (chapter 468)

it might be because gitae isnt truly copying, but rather crudely mimicking the attacks

however, a talented copy is also shown to fail in chapter 544 and here jinrang explains why:

gap’s strength relied on his desire to protect, which jinrang possesses and can therefore properly tap into the ‘technique’

its also shown through jake’s flashback in chapter 466, which enabled him to knock out drugged samuel (lmao) through his wish to protect

if there is a will, then there is a way

the protection of others is the greatest motivator (power of friendship, but with gangs!)

gap and jinrang have a desire to protect, but does gitae?

no, absolutely not!

and that will be his downfall :(

[amphitriteswife]

I think it’s so funny that people think Jaegyeon is ‘evil’ or that he doesn’t care about Seongji.

In the Cheonliang arc it was literally stated that Jaegyeon was the one who frequently actually was in contact with Seongji and even visited him. You could see that he did actually care for Seongji. All of the kings do till this day.

‘But he used Seongji’s name.’ Yes he did. Does the fact that he apologized make it up for it? No. Does that mean that Seongji didn’t mean anything to him? Also no. In the panel after he called out Seongji’s name, you can see that his gaze is averted. Could it be that PTJ just didn’t bother to draw his eyes? Yeah. But it could also mean that he did deeply regret what he did. It is a petty and shameful thing to do, calling out your dead friend’s name. But then, the 1st generation kings aren’t saints. They care for each other, and they also fight each other.

‘But he’s a traitor’ to who? James? Yeah ofcourse he is, why would Jaegyeon na ever want to be on James’ side. So him being on Jinrang’s side makes perfect sense.

It’s just kind of weird that i’m seeing everyone assume so much about him when PTJ has always wrote lookism in a ‘don’t judge too quick way’

Windbreaker Chapter 544 Spoilers! ⚠️

We finally got the answer to what happened with the drug and Vinny as well as seeing both Jay and Vinny having flashbacks on their internal conflicts up to this moment

Spoiler pics + notes below!

The chapter starts with Vinny reflecting over everything that had happened so far and how much he wanted to prove his worth especially after reflecting he wasn't alone/being supported. It's why he dumps the drug into the sink not only for himself but to also not let those around him down.

Jay also goes through the same thing, where he originally planned to get revenge for his uncle only to change and decide he'll ride for himself as an honor for his uncle's wish.

The chapter ends with everyone saying that team Sabbath won with how far Vinny gets ahead with less than 500 km left for the race.

Side note: I loved the chapter and how emotional it was though I do hope JYS goes back and fills in some of the plot holes + give us more info on Joker and his past consider he's just as important to the story as part of team Sabbath

Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez

He's back to f-ck sh-t up!

...but what's with those cool new duds?

^ manga chapters 624 and 625

Hnnngh. Something I find a bit interesting about Grimmjow aesthetically during the Thousand Year Blood War arc (manga and anime) is the change of his clothes. Not only do I personally like the new design but the new clothes seem to suit Grimmjow pretty well. I can appreciate the detail of Grimmjow's sword Pantera still being kept on the same [left] side as he seems to be right-handed. He even kept his signature jacket (how many of these does he have left when they keep getting ripped up???) but, sans weapon and jacket, the rest of his clothing is different. HOW, WHEN and WHY though?!

!! Spoilers for Bleach will be discussed in this post. !!

.

Context of Destruction's return:

Grimmjow returns in the TYBW arc by fighting a quincy that was picking on Urahara and friends in Hueco Mundo. From this all we see is the edge of his sword. Next Grimmjow tries to waltz into Urahara's tent when he heard Ichigo talking via projector, and there we saw the edge of Grimmjow's old hakama uniform:

^ manga chapter 518 and anime (TYBW part 1) episode 8

After this first visual reappearance we get another event: a location transition to some ruins in Hueco Mundo that could include Grimmjow with hints about his location and attire, especially from the anime which shows Grimmjow definitively:

^ anime (TYBW part 2) episode 1

From the anime, we get a decent visual clue about Grimmjow here - after Orihime and Chad's group have arrived at the ruins. As Orihime and Chad talk, there is a figure lurking behind them wearing a cloak who has a sharp, masculine jaw and if you look very closely you can see Grimmjow's unique fancy new shoes in the shadows. So Grimmjow's clothes have changed since arriving at the ruins.

^ manga chapter 544

In the manga however, Chad finds Orihime at the ruins with two or three figures behind him that are hard to recognize: If the figure on the left is Grimmjow, then Grimmjow is probably still wearing his hakama uniform upon arrival to the ruins. We don't get very definitive clues about Grimmjow from the manga here.

Based on these two perspectives though, considering them together - since the manga seems to be the group's early arrival at the ruins and the anime seems to be a little while after arrival at the ruins, it's a safe bet that Grimmjow changed his outfit once the group arrived at these ruins in Hueco Mundo.

.

WHERE are Grimmjow's cool new duds from?

Well, since it doesn't seem like Grimmjow is using a power to have a different appearance, it's reasonable to assume that Urahara provided everyone special new clothing since we find out later that he definitely did this for Orihime from a hilarious discussion about her new clothes (manga - 589). Urahara has proven that he is intuitive enough to design suitable and physically fitting clothes with mysterious properties for people. In terms of Grimmjow's clothing, this seems to be the most solid theory. And I wouldn't say the clothing is a 'free gift' since everyone in Urahara's group that changed clothes also helped fight in the war, gearing soldiers with armor and weapons is a thing. Urahara is a tactical guy and he puts a premium on arrancars' value in the war (manga - 552; anime TYBW part 2 - episode 3) since quincies don't steal their resureccións.

For another theory's sake, Grimmjow's clothes could also be from what's left of stuff in Las Noches, the palace in Hueco Mundo. A theory that Grimmjow could have raided Las Noches and maybe even a quincy camp then made a stash somewhere, and maybe he did, is kinda fun but feels less likely to explain his new TYBW duds.

.

Grimmjow, my dude, WHY the new look?

I'll start this with a big ol': we can only speculate unless Kubo tells us in Klub Outside or something. Why Grimmjow's clothes are different in the TYBW arc feels like the hardest thing to theorize over.

Though Grimmjow fought a quincy right away when he returned to Bleach, his old hakama uniform didn't look shredded when he tried barging into Urahara's tent (manga - 518; anime TYBW part 1 episode 8 - above). So why would Grimmjow replace his clothing? It's probably not because of that first quincy fight regardless. In the past a different Espada, Szayel, actually left his opponents to change his clothes (manga - 276; anime - 164) so arrancars have the capacity to be vain. However, Grimmjow usually fights until he's wearing tatters of his uniform. He has never seemed like a particularly vain guy nor sentimental, but he does seem cunning, practical and intentional among other primal, brutal and abrupt qualities. He loves a strong opponent in a fight, is difficult to control, does seem to hold grudges and dislikes pity. As long as Grimmjow didn't feel too tethered or pitied he might accept things and deals that Urahara could have offered...if those were beneficial to Grimmjow getting what he wants.

^ manga chapters 280 and 624

If it fits, I... Grimmjow's New Outfit Design:

The duds fit the dude! Wherever Grimmjow's clothing came from it looks practical in make and style. IT'S KINDA LIKE A ONESIE...BUT HE WOULD MAIM US FOR SAYING THAT even though he looks killer in it...so we'll just call it a 'bodysuit' instead because it's hard to see if it's two pieces... Heh heh. He wears his signature jacket from his old uniform over his new bodysuit. The lower part of the bodysuit even has pockets for him to stuff his hands in, as seems his habit. The white belts are a cool touch and Pantera is still hitched to his left hip seeming to give the belts purpose. His shoes...god. If a man is going to wear heels those are it. The shoes are the flashiest part of Grimmjow's outfit. One could argue that the jagged guard around the toes and the one at his heel could help protect his feet.

Overall Grimmjow's new outfit is pretty streamlined, not a lot of flappy snag hazards, but it has several sharp/pointy accents. The new design feels like a reflection of his agile but vicious demeanor with some hollow flare. His new outfit is curiously the same color scheme as his old Espada hakama uniform...but why? Well, Grimmjow probably isn't wearing it to be sentimental since he previously made defying Aizen a habit and attacked arrancar on his own side multiple times. Yet, the colors are the same and we still don't actually know why!

A fun little theory about why Grimmjow kept his old uniform and accepts the same color scheme for his new clothing could be that since quincies are trying to take Hueco Mundo away from hollows and arrancar, Grimmjow might feel like wearing these are a sign of defiance. He is said to be a little territorial and absolutely defiant. This is just a theory though.

^ manga chapters 279 and 625

Driven by SCARS. Details of the Design:

In the deep v-neck of Grimmjow's bodysuit we can still see two significant scars on his torso. One is the scar that Ichigo's Getsuga Tensho attack gave Grimmjow (manga - 211; anime - 121) and above it is a second scar which Nnoitora's Santa Teresa inflicted on Grimmjow (manga - 286; anime - 190). Grimmjow overtly states in his third fight with Ichigo (manga - 279 - above; anime - 165) that he has purposefully kept the scar from Ichigo. The scar from Ichigo is clearly a bit special ('a reminder' in some translations) and the second scar from Nnoitora happened right after Grimmjow and Ichigo's grand third fight. Maybe Grimmjow feels similarly about both? This is probably as close to sentimental as canon Grimmjow will ever get. Those scars seem important though. Grimmjow displays his scars instead of hiding them...and if he wanted to hide them he certainly could have, but he hasn't. Pretty badass to do that intentionally.

.

Does Grimmjow like his new clothes? Enough to wear them. lol Otherwise who knows. He seems much more interested in picking his next fight and doing other...Grimmjow things...you know, like being a bit of a loner and devastatingly handsome!
