I'm back with a mermaid au where Eddie is Star and Yue’s handler and Diva visits with the sole purposes of gossiping with Star and climbing into Yue’s tank when no one is looking 🩷 happy mermay 🫶🏼
Eddie and Diva: @xoxoalette
(btw I somehow ended up giving Yue and Star red and pink eyes respectively. plus i figured out that what was bothering me about Yue’s hair, there was too much blue. so now he only the longer mullet part of his hair is blue)

We're going hotter folks.
The hot takes from before were met with waves of agreement and affirmation, which was NOT the goal. So I'm going even hotter.
The lgbtq community is massively over-represented. More-so with gender identities then sexualities. This does NOT take into account the fact that homophobia may or may not exists in-universe. Either way there's something to be pissed off about.
I hate that this is an object show. I love object shows but not only is it off-theme for an obejct show, it's not intentionally off-theme. By that i mean theres no irony or parody to more conventional obejct shows.
Why the fuck are the episodes ordered like this? You can see minty lighting a moltov for citrus FIVE EPISODES BEFORE VENATICS. And then just a plothole of the pooltrus and binty groups splitting before anything like that is possible? Its stupidly hard to follow and reads like a rant.
I'm sick of the ships, ALL of them. Every romantic relationship possible has too many tie ups to be enjoyable outside of cannon. I've seen maybe 5 ships in the entire fandom that don't wildly mischaracterize atleast one member. Comet x wagyu? Citrus x minty? Wagyu x citrus? Fuck off.
Like seriously for a comic of this nature im expecting environment art, gore, violent animations, instead its just 90% ship art. Why is THAT what you found most interesting? Out if everything that was what motivated you to actually draw it? I understand its a fandom, but its weird to me. It's so damn shallow and "now make them kiss!" coded, show me a slowburn fanfic and THEN we can talk about ship art.
Mushroom and Dynamite are stupidly annoying. And thats saying a lot considering they have my 2nd favorite ep. Mushroom is immature, and Dynamite is so damn dramatic. It's hard to believe they're in college when they act like middle schoolers. It astounds me that mushroom can nuzzle dynamite and brush his hair from behind and still be suprised and when he eventually just kisses her. Ugh i still like them though.
I do not understand the comet fans, she's cool I guess, she's just boring in comparision. She has barely any redeeming qualities as a character and as a person. So i don't get how people relate or get interested.

> Sign-offs: 👑, 🖍️, 🦝, ♥️, 💛, 🤍, 🍊, 🍋
> Song theme:
> Front triggers(pos/neg/neu):
Star has almost exclusively positive front triggers, coming into front when someone needs comforted or cheered up. Cray is friendly and silly, always available with a joke and comfort. He is front triggered by silly things, fun things, cute things, cute animals, and also the body needing to regress, be cheered up. Sun loves sourcemates. 
Biggest negative trigger is being called annoying
> Likes/dislikes:
+ Having fun, fruit, going outside, the sunshine, making friends, being around sourcemates, play fighting, bothering people. 
- being bored, being lonely, being reminded of negative things that happened in source, being abandoned, being called annoying.
> Personality: Very fun and friendly and outgoing, loves to meet new people, loves to talk. Citrus never seems to run out of energy and always has something going on. This is a Tommy that nothing bad ever happened to, and it’s so clear in the way that he is always excited to see everyone. Can be a bit overwhelming because of how loud it is, but its loving and affectionate and the kindest person you’ve probably ever met. 
> Ways they do their role: By just being the silliest guy you’ve ever laid your eyes on. Tries to put on shows and jokes, tries really hard to be funny and likable and for the most part succeeds. It’s hard to dislike him, it’s hard to be mad at sun. Stims a lot, dances a lot, sometimes develops new stims just by being in front. Holds a lot of autistic special interests and will go on long rants about their special interest of the time. 
> Inner world occupation or behavior: He’s always sticking his nose in other people’s business, bothering sourcemates, bothering people of status, following people around asking them to play with him and hang out with him. May have a plush castle to live in, and may occasionally have to be babysat due to age sliding younger. 
> Possible outerworld behavior: is very loud and excitable, prone to being bothersome. Loves being around friends and will spam text them, likes to text in all caps and send multiple messages at once, can be difficult to read their messages.

(Yuuri rant)
Saw this fujoshi on tt the other day talk about how yuri/gl wasnt as good as yaoi/bl because it isnt marketed (merch and figures) as much as yaoi ▪︎_▪︎
no shit
Theres more people wanting yaoi than there is yuri
There also isnt as much people writing/producing yuri as much as yaoi
Like,
Ive been on several webnovel and comic sites and each time there had been a yaoi catagory and no yuri catagory; and when there is, it has a fraction of the works that yaoi has
Even on tumblr the amount of people following the # yaoi is bigger than yuri
They then went onto saying that the only plot of yuri had been the romance, and they talked about how they read SOME of bloom into you and all of citrus...
There obviously is anime and manga with that has yuri as a subplot or is HEAVILY implied, but then there's a shitton of people online just marking them as friends,
EVEN YOU, WHO SAID IN YOUR VIDEO THAT YOU DONT CONSIDER MADOKA MAGICA OR LYCORIS RECOIL AS YURI
And obviously yuri wont be as good for you since you prefer reading boys love over girls love

Ant and Spider- Lemon Boy by Cavetown. Also posted on my A03 oneshots
There once was a bittersweet man and they called him Lemon Boy
He was growing in my garden and I pulled him out by his hair like a weed
And like weeds do he only came and grew back again
So, I figured this time I might as well let him be-
Ant and Spider became friends when they were going into year 2, even back then Spider had been a bit of bully. It never anything major just the usual asshole kid stuff but his parents still warned him to stay away from him. Ant desperate for his parents approval did exactly that. It was hard to get rid of the blonde, they were in the exact same class, the times they interacted were fun and even then Ant knew he wanted to be Spider's friend.
-Lemon Boy and me started to get along together
I helped him plant his seeds and we'd mow the lawn in bad weather
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
So I got myself a citrus friend-
They were now 13 and the best of friends, Ant knew Spider wasn't exactly the nicest but after having the unpleasant experience of meeting Cait White more and more starting of Spider's anger started making sense. Which was why he would just lay and the let Spider rant angrily and get everything off his chest and mind. And why he would forgive Spider so quickly and was always loyal to him.
-But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on me
You'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat
I found out that my friends are more of the savoury type
And they weren't too keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie-
They were now 17, they had been best friends for a decade now, they were bound to have rubbed off on one another along the way somehow, they were still them but the more and more angry women rants Spider gave and the more times he held him while he questioned if what his mum was saying was true made a very small piece of him dislike women, not all of them of course but there was still a list.
-So Lemon Boy and me, we just gotta get along together
I'll help him plant his seeds and we'll mow the lawn in bad weather
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
So I got myself a citrus friend-
They were 20 now, somehow they had managed to stay best friends for 13 years, it hadn't always been smooth sailing of course. They had had a few squabbles in the past but they both knew they couldn't cope without each other.
-Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever
Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever
Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever
Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him-
They were 50 now. Spider worked in business while Ant had charged jobs a few times, he now worked as animal service trainer. Throughout the years he reflected back on how Spider had changed for the better and he knew he hadn’t made a single mistake befriending and forgiving him
I've seen people say that Lemon Boy is meant to represent mental health but it still makes me think of Ant and Spider.

hi hi gray!!! this feels like poking a bear but, favorite headcanons for miraculous characters? any of them
CHAOS!!!!!! <3333
YOU HAVE NOT ONLY POKED A BEAR BUT UM. UH. SHOOT. UHHHH I NEED A WITTY PHRASE UH. TURNED THE FAN TO MAXIMUM AND WATCHED IT SHAKE THE WHOLE HOUSE DOWN YES THAT'S IT
I will gladly take this opportunity to ramble my little heart out. Talk your ear off. Preach to the crowds. Shoot the breeze. The following under the cut is just one HUGE slightly DISCOMBOBULATED RANT so be warned hehe.
OKAY OKAY to begin with I LOVE the thought that the magic of the Miraculous bears consequences to those especially in-tune with their kwami OR who use the powers frequently. In this I mean the ideas that if the kwami are especially bonded to their chosen their magic takes consequence in the form of their animal-avatar's tendencies. Cat Adrien and Bug Marinette and Fox Alya and Turtle Nino and probably?? Moth Gabriel. I think Adrien would be more prone to napping and wanting physical contact, but due to his. Unchecked massive depression and abandonment issues. Those aren't more apparent than usual. I think he would also purr and chase moving things and love napping in sunlight also and his friends would be DELIGHTED at these (even if they don't know why they're happening). I like the thought of Marinette's ability to sit quietly and stare without moving a muscle increasing 400%, that she likes eating aphids and leaves, that she wants to cuddle in winter and CANNOT deal with extreme temperatures. Also that her sense of smell becomes really good (Antennae!!!) and if she enters a room that smells like citrus she just straight-up leaves without comment. Also Gabriel Agreste eating his own fashion designs I will not be accepting criticism at this time
OUTSIDE OF THAT THOUGH. A BIT OF THE USUAL but I'd like to think that Alya and Marinette and Nino have ADHD but Marinette also has an anxiety disorder of some sort (and also. PTSD. Like so many of the kids in this show at this point probably. At least Adrien also) and that Adrien has depression (maybe bipolar?) and autism. And is a sunshine friend. They all form a support group and help one another because there are SO FEW ADULTS THAT COME THROUGH FOR THESE KIDS IN THE SHOW MAN!!! I don't know maybe Nathalie and Sabine would help them though.
I think by far the funniest interpretation of the show is that most of the kid characters are in just a massive complicated polycule. Just. So many people dating so many other people. Schedules are drawn up and secretaries are appointed.
Unrelated to mostly any of this but I love Alya. She's so SWEET and a FORCE OF NATURE and she has THREE PARTNERS AND IS UNSTOPPABLE. I think that Nino and Marinette and Adrien would turn to her first if they have any questions about society. Which is funny because Alya is as much a massive dork as the rest of them but her overwhelming confidence causes people to see her as Awesome and Cool as she does her weird little hobbies on main.
I LOVE the Rose runaway headcanons that I've seen and she and Juleka are 10000% dating. I think that as twins Juleka has seen Luka's hidden Unhinged side and gets EXTREMELY AMUSED whenever anyone calls him lacking in pettiness. In terms of friendships I like the thought that Max and Kim and Alix are in a friendgroup together, and Max and Alix bond over being uninterested in romantic relationships.
Kind-of a different thought entirely but. Psychological effects of the Miraculous roles. I think that Marinette would become more withdrawn because of the CRUSHING BURDEN of needing to pull through for Paris at any cost. Even if all her friends are struck down she has to keep standing, keep going, and win. I think that her friends would recognize the importance of her role in repairing the damage and do whatever it takes to keep Ladybug standing and I think that really GETS to her. I think she'd struggle also with convincing Chat that he's not expendable, that she wants and needs and loves him and that he's FANTASTIC at his job, just as she does in canon. I think that Chat as Chat Noir really struggles with the feeling of being left in the dark- which he largely IS- but has mostly regained his sense of importance due to his and Ladybug's reawakened partnership post-Strikeback. I think he'd still have feelings of being betrayed or condescended at still though, based on his and Ladybug's struggles with communication and trust in the past (though they've worked hard to reearn that trust and have come a long way!!) and because Ladybug's stress response is to become as INDEPENDENT AS POSSIBLE and completely close herself off and leave everyone in the dark (re: Gang of Secrets, Chat Blanc, the finale). He'd be a little bitter about it (rightfully so) but would try to move forward and address it with the people he feels are leaving him in dark.
Speaking of season five I LOVE LADYBUG AND CHAT NOIR'S NEW DYNAMIC!! They're just so silly. So stupid.
Also speaking of season five and especially the finale I think that Juleka and Rose and Adrien are particularly haunted by their nightmares for the weeks succeeding old Monarch's defeat due to suffering the nightmares for a while before Ladybug could cast her cure.
ALSO SPEAKING OF THE FINALE: BUG NOIRE. I HAVE SO MANY THOUGHTS ON BUG NOIRE MY GOODNESS.
These include in no particular order:
> Combining the Black Cat and Ladybug Miraculous as a simple Miraculous combination probably has not happened in CENTURIES. I think the dedication that our present Ladybug and Chat Noir have for respecting the Miraculous is a bit novel and unique, and I think Chat Noir would also be able to use a regular unification of Tikki and Plagg's powers just as Marinette did.
> Combining the Black Cat and Ladybug Miraculous, while not nearly as catastrophic as using the Wish, is till a tremendous amount of power and teeters on the edge of the dance of Creation, Destruction, and Reality. I think that the surge in power boosted Bug Noire's confidence and I like to headcanon that it probably made her feel giddy/powerful in the detached sort of way one with the abilty to have a personal look on objective Reality would have. I think there are consequences for this unification too: I like to headcanon that the sort of power and freedom and knowledge one gets in combining creation and destruction really messes with the head, and that Ladybug/Marinette finds herself losing touch with reality following the weeks after Monarch's defeat. I think it would get worse before it got better, with her beginning with losing her sense of the world for only a few minutes at a time to maybe an hour or more before it recedes again. I think the terrifying sense of conceptualism held by the kwami and channeled through the Miraculous would stick with her forever though.
> Bug Noire, if not fighting to the death as she was in canon, would probably be OVERJOYED and THRILLED to Exist and to be lingering on the edge of reality as she was, and would probably need help being convinced to detransform afterwards.
The KWAMI I LOVE THE KWAMI I LOVE READING PEOPLE WRITE ABOUT THEM. I like the idea that the kwami enjoy lingering around humanity for the ability to experience the universe at a mortal level and actively participate in it, a la @iapislazuli 's interpretations of canon. I think that they really do begin to care a lot for their chosen, a soft spot and a sense of guardianship towards their wards/their friends.
Ooh and the kwami referring to their chosen as little versions of their avatars (bug, kit/kitten, etc.) love that one as well. It's so sweet!!!
Marichat gamer friends silly goofy friends. That's it that's the headcanon. I'd like to see Ladrien silly goofy friends as well if I'm being honest.
REALLY LIKE THE HEADCANONS OF LADYNOIR GOOFING AROUND ON PATROL. Daring one another to do stupid-complicated stunts and playing games and finding the grossest parts of the city to have heartfelt moments in. Love them being PALS being PARTNERS
Oh I also like the thought of Adrien and Marinette seemingly-randomly just being EXTREMELY BUFF. And no one can figure out how they've found the time to develop that much muscle and they're both giggling to eachother about it.
Okay that's all for now luckily for you all. Thank you for reading and thank you CHAOS FOR ENABLING ME!! LOVE YOU!! Hope these are all okay let me know of I've accidentally said anything offensive!

Baul Headcanons!
Next up is grumpy older bro proto-vergil, Baul!
Baul is not the greatest at expressing emotions, mainly because of his normal mood is just grumpy and anger
So Modeus translates Baul’s meanings since he is the more empathetic twin.
When they were younger, Baul would fist-fight any demon that insulted Modeus.*
Baul specializes in combat that gears more for strength and brute force. Essentially, he is a tank.
He will not understand any slang that was not used in the medieval ages
Jokes will fly over his head
Baul will bite into ice cream like it wasn’t a cold desert. Only happens when Modeus and/or Patty gives him a strawberry sundae
Baul is the most likely to curse
Patty started a swear jar for when Baul [or Dante] curses while she’s over at the office
Baul chose his human disguise because he does not want to be seen, which doesn’t work because of his outfit. Those pauldrons are’t hiding you.
Baul isn’t very talkative around people that do not know him. He will only respond when he is spoken to.
He might go on a rant or two about Sparda bc reasons
When Baul gets angry, He gets very angry
Enough to where he’ll punch down a tree.
He may not show it or express it well, Baul genuinely cares about Modeus.
Baul will guard outside the changing room when Modeus wants to try on new clothes and such.
Baul is aroace, he prefers platonic connections over anything else. He doesn’t get that sex is not just for procreation but he doesn’t complain. He is not sex aversed but it will only be with someone whom he’s had a strong connection with. He’s just not interested in relationships of any kind aside from platonic relationships
Baul does not like many sweet things but he will eat sundaes because Modeus likes them.
He may have learned how to bake while no one was in the office.
Baul does not really like hugs but he will let Modeus hug him. Anyone else, HISSSSSSSSSSS
Unfortunately, he cannot say no to Patty. 
After the events of the anime, Baul sort of mellowed out about wanting Sparda’s soul from Dante but he expects a duel or two from Dante every now and then,
Baul is ambidextrous 
Once Baul learned of Vergil’s existence and what he did during the events of DMC 3, he flipped a table. No explanation, he just flipped a table
Baul hates being called Milkman. 100% will throw hands with Dante every time he’s called that.
Insert property damage here
Baul likes to drink coffee
Baul gets confused about the concept of “comfy/relaxing time” but tries it anyway.
He’d personally liked to train when there isn’t anything important needed to be done but he’ll try it because Modeus, Dante and others do it often.
He won’t admit it but he likes wearing sweatshirts and sweatpants
Related to the previous hc: Baul doesn't know how to relax. After years of fighting in the Underworld and now living in the human realm, he had a harder time sitting still and was constantly on edge in early years in the human realm. Later on, he still can't sit still but he can let himself 'relax' to some extent.
Credit to one of my frens on discord: Baul has better control over his anger because he uses it more in battle
Baul hates the smell of citrus fruits, specifically oranges.
He will make a cringe face
He calls s’mores marshmallow sandwiches

Citrus anime review
Tumblr media
Spoilers for citrus and tw for stepcest, non consensual touching, a teacher being engaged to a minor, cheating  and sexualisation of queer women (this anime is definitely not worth watching)
“I felt bitter to the people around me and I closed off my heart. And a heart that lets nothing in will become empty before you realize it,”- Mei Aihara
Disclaimer: I have watched all the episodes out so far, and I despise this anime with a passion. I tried very hard to like it, but I just couldn't because of several very irritating aspects of it. This WILL be somewhat of a rant because of this.
Genre: Yuri, romance, high school, fanservice
Where I watched it: Funimation
Characterisation: 7/10 (Let's start with the things that the series did well on. I quite liked the cast, and the characters themselves were reasonably well designed- the ideas behind personalities, mannerisms and backstories were good, but I felt like in most cases, characters were lacking when it came to complexity and development. They didn’t change much or show many different sides as the series went on, they stayed very much the same for the most part, except from Matsuri, who grew to accept Mei after realizing that love wasn’t a competition or simple, and recognising the good things about her. Harumin was my favourite character, personally- she was funny and light hearted, as well as being the kind of best friend every girl needs. I also adored her more “public school” mannerisms compared to those of the prim and proper private school girls. Yuzu was also quite a good protagonist- she was an outsider in that upstanding school, where the things she considered normal and fun were seen as improper. As well as that, she was kind, as well as being determined- when she put her mind to something, she achieved it, which is shown by the improvement in her grades and and effort she put into making a cake from scratch for Christmas. However, when it comes to more emotional and complex matters, Yuzu is so clueless that it’s almost irritating. If I’m being honest, Mei just felt a bit like the overused serious character with a tragic backstory, which, I have to admit, was reasonably well developed. She herself wasn’t very developed as a character, her personality lacking depth and complexity.)
Setting: 7.5/10 (The setting is another thing that the show executes quite well, despite it being pretty basic. I love the idea of Yuzu, this extroverted and somewhat rebellious state school student, arriving in a luxurious private school and being completely out of place. Yuzu and Mei’s bedroom also has a nice design, with half of it clearly belonging to Mei and the other to Yuzu; the furniture reflects the girls’ interests and lifestyles. The idea of taking a school trip towards the end was a good one too, and it provided an opportunity to introduce new characters as well as a much needed change of scenery, with exciting new things to explore and incorporate into the plot.) 
Art style: 8/10 (Probably the only noteworthy high of this series. The way the characters are drawn, as well as the colour pallets chosen and the attention to details, is astonishing. Outfits are also modelled to suit characters and their personalities, which added to that appeal. Settings are drawn with a similar care and in a picturesque way.)
_ Ranting starts here_
Plot: 2/10 (I found this anime while searching for anime with wlw relationships, and I was really excited to watch it- it was the first time I had encountered an anime where the protagonists were both queer girls. What really stings is that on the surface and after watching the opening theme, it seemed like a good anime which portrays a relationship the way straight ones are often portrayed- with care and adding complexity. However, this isn’t really the case at all. As well as lacking development and not being dynamic, the plot also fails to develop Yuzu and Mei’s relationship on a deeper level, with things like quality time spent together or deep, honest conversations. On top of that, after first meeting Mei at her new school, Yuzu discovers that she’s the daughter of her mother’s new partner, which makes them step-sisters. This made me incredibly uncomfortable, because they referred to each other as sisters but often made romantic advances, sometimes hesitating but ultimately deciding to date regardless of the fact that they’re step-sisters. This was a difficult, sensitive topic and needed to be handled properly, which the series totally failed at doing. Also, when Matsuri entered the picture and admitted to her own romantic feelings for Yuzu, she too referred to her as a “big sister”- personally, I’m really uncomfortable with the way the series romanticised this particular type of relationship. Another problem I have with the plot is that when Mei and Yuzu made advances, it was sometimes non consensual, but still presented in a romantic and rose tinted way, which was disturbing to see. Lastly, I hated that their relationship was presented in such an overly sexualised manner- sometimes, they either didn’t interact much or made out intensely. It feels like their relationship was created more for the sake of fan service than to make something romantic. Sexualising women is already very common in many anime, but queer women experience a lot of sexualisation based on the fact that some men fetishize wlw relationships, so the fact that these two queer minors were portrayed in such a sexual light sometimes was annoying. I don’t mind “spicier” scenes, but, in my opinion, to make a romance anime good, these need to be coupled with a complex and deep relationship, and scenes of the characters bonding and growing close in other ways. Citrus simply didn’t have enough of that, so it just felt like a way to sexualise wlw relationships for the sake of fanservice rather than good representation. Another terrible aspect of the anime was the relationship between Mei and that teacher at the start of the series. The two were engaged, despite Mei being a minor, which is horrifying to think about. Not only is it illegal, it’s disgusting. Later on, Mei claims that didn’t enjoy being kissed by him, and doesn’t seem too affected by the end of their relationship after she finds out he cheated she doesn’t seem too bothered, which implies Mei was unhappy in that relationship. Apart from that, the show did a poor job at actually addressing this theme or expanding on why it was happening and the potential impact on Mei’s life, as well as neglecting to paint it as something harmful that should be condemned. The whole thing just kind of dies out as the focus shifts to Yuzu and Mei, which is an unrealistic and harmful way to portray such damaging relationships.)
Addictiveness: 3/10 (There was nothing about the series which kept me hooked, mostly because it felt like there was no actual plot, and the episodes felt monotonous. You also do not become invested enough in the characters due to the poor development to care about what happens next. There were a few twists, but overall it was not engaging.)
Comfort: 4/10 (This anime deals with several topics I’m not comfortable with, with an unhealthy relationship being just the tip of the iceberg. This, along with the lack of light and joyous, yet gripping moments, is why I gave it a low rating. The only things which comes close to saving it are Sarah’s wholesome outlook on life and her selflessness in prioritizing Yuzu’s happiness over her own when she realizes they both like the same girl, and Yuzu’s ride-or-die friendship with Harumin, which is a friendship all viewers would probably want.)
Originality: 5/10 (Nothing in this series really struck me as original or innovative, apart from maybe the idea of Yuzu coming from a completely different background to the new prestigious private school one, and what that means for her when she starts attending that school and becomes legally related to the director.)
Consistency: 5/10 (The quality of the anime seemed OK for the first part of the first episode, but it soon took a nosedive. It stayed consistently low throughout the rest of the series, being bumped up a little by the introduction of Harumin and later of Sarah and Mina, two very different twins with a realistic relationship as sisters. Sarah’s perspective on her sexuality is refreshing and simple after Yuzu’s own confusing love life and her complex relationship with Mei. She simply loves who she loves, and that’s all there is to it.)
Philosophy: 4/10 (The anime, and its characters, lack depth of thought, so it’s not surprising that it gives viewers nothing really substantial to think about.)
The plot
Yuzu Aihara just transferred to a new school after moving house due to her mom getting a new partner, who’s away due to work a lot. Yuzu is optimistic, relaxed and extroverted. She loves fashion and fun, and she really wants a boyfriend. As soon as she enters the new, prestigious all girls school, she realises she is somewhat out of place. Everything about her outfit violates the uniform rules, and she is told that having her phone on her is forbidden. After Yuzu refuses to hand it over, the student council president, Mei Aihara, unexpectedly feels her up until she finds the phone, before confiscating it and leaving Yuzu flustered. Throughout the day, Yuzu tries to make friends with other students, but they’re all very reserved. She then meets Harumin, another girl who transferred in high school; Harumin explains that thing are different at this school, as all the girls have been taught to “mind their ps and qs”. She and Yuzu quickly become close friends. When Yuzu returned home that day, she found Mei there, and made an astonishing discovery- the girl was now her step sister: she was the daughter of the man her mother had married. The two girls start their life of co habitation, learning more about each other and developing increasingly strong feelings for each other, despite their circumstances. Both are confused, and their relationship is rocky and unhealthy throughout the show. After a while the two get to know each other a bit better and they realise that they are faced with an extremely complex situation, one where the wrong choice seems to be the “most tempting”.

Looks like the toxic fetishisation of lesbian relationships and the step sibling trope is back again with the new, rapey vibe anime Citrus! Can I get a sarcastic round of applause for once again making girls who like girls look like predators that are there to be fapped over? Thanks again, Japan. I thought we'd come so far with Sakura Trick, but then with Netsuzou Trap we took a thousand steps backwards and now there's this garbage. I'm losing hope that there will ever be another wlw focused anime I can relate to and not feel 100% creeped out by.

I've been reading complaints of the animation of Citrus and I just want to say that it looks amazing even if it isn't perfect. Animaters work hard hours to put your favorite manga into anime and yeah it won't look exactly like the manga. However the trailer still captures the artist's style so please don't bash it because you don't like how it's animated. It's hard to animate and it's hard work, please put that in consideration before you judge the trailer.

So, usually I use the "read the manga" meme in reference to JJBA but I realized that when Kakegurui and Citrus came out the joke became reality, and these people who hadn't read the manga are shit talking the show or don't know what was really supposed to happen, they don't get it and think these things are good/bad. Tbh it pisses me off sometimes but I just tell people to go read the manga or tell them how it happened in the Manga. With Kakegurui I'm begging people to read the manga cause I'm scared of what's gonna happen with the show after they announced season 2 recently. Or the people talkin mad shit on Mei from citrus and calling her a bitch which I will admit she was a bit cold at the start but she hasn't even had the chance yet to be fleshed out completely. I even saw people talkin shit about her in the manga because of recent events and bitch you know its a drama, shit has to happen, have you watched a soap opera???? Lmao. Anywayyyys, I'm done being a bitch and ranting.

🔖 writings and such - haikyuu headcanon
what perfume the haikyuu characters would wear [pt.1] [pt.2]
okay so this is my personal take on what perfume the haikyuu characters would most likely (definitely) wear. no i don’t take criticism and i stand proudly behind this 😌✋ knowing myself, i will get way into this lmaoo
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
characters : suna rintarō, bokuto kōtarō, kuroo tetsurō, oikawa tōru and iwaizumi hajime
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
suna rintarō - jimmy choo, man blue
listen. LISTEN. mans would definitely wear this scent, NO FUCKING DOUBT ABOUT IT. like the first time i smelled this, i immediately thought of him (and yes i bought it right after smelling it, same goes for some of the other perfumes i will mention hdbsj). the description of this perfume literally states that this scent is for the relaxed, independent and rebelic man. no i don’t think suna is per definition ‘rebelic’, but i do believe he’s not the easiest to handle yk
it’s a very aromatic and woody scent with some spice mixed into it
some of the notes are :
lavender
bergamot
black pepper
sandelwood
leather
Tumblr media
bokuto kōtarō - dior, sauvage
this one is actually a personal take for me. my best friend wears this perfume all the time and every time he hugs me, i instantly feel comfortable. bokuto is my comfort character, so it just fits for me yk. also fun fact, but he has almost the complete same personality as bo. this perfume is inspired by the beautiful landscapes of open fields, mountains and the blue sky. the scent also reminds me of someone who is confident in his abilities and someone who is bold and sincere in his actions. these characteristics definitely describes bo for me, cause bo strives to be the best ace. like yes, he has his emo modes, but ultimately he grew out of it after the timeskip and that proves to me how strong he is. also there is a reason he was made captain, like some people in this fandom make him out to be some stupid ass dude who is dependable on akaashi for literally everything, but let me remind u that this man is older than akaashi and he’s respected by all of his teammates for his drivenness and sincere/outspoken attitude. yes, akaashi helps him out with stuff, just like any other best friend would do, but ultimately he isn’t in control of bokuto and he did realize this during vol.38 of the manga, when he was being benched. but yea, that was kinda my rant lmao
it’s a powerful woody scent with evident citrusy elements
some of the notes are :
calabrian bergamot
ambroxan
citrus
pepper
Tumblr media
kuroo tetsurō - yves saint laurent, y
i definitely headcanon that kuroo still uses this perfume after the timeskip and that he first got it for his bday from kenma. when i smelled this perfume, it certainly reminds me of kuroo’s drivenness to become a successful man, someone who is able to overcome their hardships and who is to stubborn to give up on the path they engraved for themselves. i also like how sleek the bottle is and in some way it reminds me of him. i think it also reminds me of him because of the mix of intensity and freshness that in my opinion perfectly displays his provocative behavior at times, but also his ability to be kind and help those who needs it.
this scent is a combination of aromatic and woody elements
some of the notes are :
apple
sage essence
geranium
tonka beans
ginger
Tumblr media
oikawa tōru - versace, versace eau fraîche
the description of this perfume literally says that this scent is for the elegant man, and isn’t that just the right word to describe oikawa in court. i know it’s listed as a very heavy scent, but in actuality it really isn’t compared to many other scents for man (i have this one too lmao). i actually got a lot of compliments when wearing this perfume and the melange of these particular notes makes me feel more calm and it also feels comforting in a way. and even though oiks isn’t my comfort character, i do feel like he does to the others both in the anime and irl. like he’s the captain and can bring out the best out of his teammates. u have to make people feel comfortable to be able to do that and that’s why i feel he would wear this scent, to also calm himself down with all the responsibilities he carries. also, ngl the bottle reminds me of seijoh
this perfume has a very citrusy scent with some woody and aromatic tones
some of the notes are :
cedarleaves
white lemon
amber
musk
rosewood
Tumblr media
iwaizumi hajime - versace, eros
okay but if u’ve ever smelled this perfume, u would 100% agree with me that this is iwaizumi hajime in a perfume bottle. like holy shit this smells so good, LIKE SO GOOD GOSH (and yes i have this one too and i even gave it as a present for my best friend, cause it smell THAT FUCKING GOOD). this perfume brings out the intense charisma, sensuality, spice and unique aura of the man and a man who is strong with his opinions, beliefs, heart etc. basically iwaizumi in a nutshell to me
it’s a oriental and woody scent with touches of fruit extracts and mint for some extra freshness
some of the notes are :
mint
green apple
cedarwood
tonka beans
geranium
Tumblr media
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[a/n] : did i go to the local cosmetic store to smell these perfumes and to make sure i can proudly stand behind this ? maybe. but it sure was a delight to look for the correct perfumes (in my opinion) and match them with these characters. i’ll probs do this again, when i have time to go to the store again :>
[2nd a/n] : oh and i know the majority of these perfumes are stated as for ‘man’, but i find it ridiculous how perfume and scents are labeled by gender. it doesn’t make sense to me, so if u by chance like these perfumes/scents, but ur to scared or insecure to buy ; let me be the first to tell u that u should go for it. fuck them gender norms right? and wear the fuck u want loves <3

My Little Needy-- Variant.
Summary: While Agent Mobius is interrogating you, you begin to show some sass to hide your neediness. But as the interrogation moves forward, things become a little hot.
Warning: Thigh Riding Kink, Choking Kink, Praising kink, smut.
Mobius x Fem!Reader
This was requested by my friend, Ines. Ines here's your fic, loser.
You and Mobius sat across from each other. You were glaring at the man as he sipped his drink. "Let's play 10 questions. It's like 20 questions but 10 questions are asked instead," He finally said.
You tilted your head to the side, crossing your arms to look intimating but it didn't seem to affect him, "What are you? 12?"
Mobius shook his head, clicking his tongue. "That's 2 questions, you can only as one question at a time, bunny," Your mouth dropped at the new nickname.
"Don't call me bunny, old man," you hissed at him, slamming your hands on the table. He rolled his eyes, not even bothered by your scene.
"What's your favorite animal?" He asked, ignoring what had just happened. You paused, wondering what he was doing. You opened your mouth to snap at him but instead, an answer came out, "Foxes."
"She does more than sass! Great!" Mobius smirked. "Your turn, bunny."
You smirked, leaning closer to him, "What exactly is the TVA?"
"The TVA was created by the Time Keepers to protect the sacred timeline," Mobius replied, leaning back into his chair. You gritted your teeth.
"My turn," Mobius grinned making you cross your legs in your chair and squeeze. Were you really having this feeling about the agent in front of you. You mentally scowled at the thought of being turned on by being questioned. "Your turn," you repeated.
"What's your favorite color?" You raised an eyebrow, thinking of the appropriate color. "Red," You weren't even sure if your answer was correct but it felt right to say at that moment.
"Ohh, bloody and gore. Am I right? I like it," You raised an eyebrow. "You're like a child."
"What's your favorite song," You asked almost immediately. Mobius's eyes widen slightly, taken by surprise. "I don't have one. There are millions from all over the timeline, but I would like to say music from the 1500s is pretty unique," Mobius ranted.
You rolled your eyes, trying to stall as you thought of a plan to escape from the TVA's grasp. Suddenly he’s standing up from his tiny little chair and you’re aware of form over you. He’s not particularly tall, but he’s standing over your sitting form.
He’s dressed well too, but you had to guess it was a sort of uniform for his job. It fits him nicely, not like you ever say that to him though. Instead, your eyes trail his moving form as he gets closer to you. He reaches your personal bubble.
He smells nice. Like fresh linen, citrus, and something so much more masculine. You can see the way his eyes flicker back and forth and the threading of his clothing. Your breath staggers and Odin's beard, was it always this hot in here?
To be Continued...
