#cw: rivalry

[shkika]

This has probably already been asked, but you said that W1 goes through the events of the game in V1s place. So what happens when it meets Gabriel? Would it avoid him, attack the same as in game, or do something different? Love the AU; some of the best quality work in here!

A gentle reminder.

I think W1 is capable of more spite than V1 alone!

(For your Robin Hood) this is sort of random but do you have any ideas for like the *closest* Robin has ever got to dying? Times where people got actually sort of close to killing him? Also: in that situation, how did he react? You've mentioned how he's kind of willing to do anything to bring down the crown/achieve his goals, how does he react death actually feels like a possibility? :D

Currently, I beliiieve

When the show starts, Robins nearest-to-death moment would’ve been the explosion in the attack, what caused his hearing loss, burned him etc.

But at some point I believe he’d be attacked by either Guy Gisbourne or Lucy Locksley, and perhaps shot before getting away. He’d be incredibly angry and just try his best to keep his eyes open and do anything to stay alive, find Little John etc.

But in the later show, Lucy definitely gets very very near to killing Robin before he confesses who he is to her just to stop her. He doesn’t care if Lucy has closure on her brothers death. He just needs to live.

CONTENT WARNING: VIOLENCE/DRAWN BLOOD ⚠️

Lucy decides to kill Robin with her bare hands and he’s about to pass out from being beaten so he decides dropping his biggest secret is the better than death before his goal was accomplished. Lucy doesn’t get confirmation before he’s out so she just has to call 999 (Britain’s 911) and find out.

Rivalry advice please?

Remember, everyone who is not your friend is your enemy. Also, many of your friends are your enemy. Lovers, family, coworkers, all of these are your enemy. Your enemy? They too are your enemy. Ever wonder if there are people you never met who hate you? Naturally, there are, they do, and they too, are your enemy. The dead? Oh you bet they envy your life and are your enemy. The unborn? Don't even ask because they are among your most unpredictable enemies.

And above all: If you think all the above? Then you are in fact, your own worst enemy. Such is the nature of rivalry, at least when we play Mario Party.

*twirling my hair* do you have some good yuri manga recs?

(lying on my stomach and kicking my feet) i'm SO glad you asked!

to preface this i'll be excluding better-known yuri or yuri that's recently gotten its flowers (whether thru virality or adaptations) (e.g. in love with the villainess, love bullet, bloom into you, etc. etc.) and will instead be recc'ing works i don't often encounter in the wild. some will be more well-known than others, but all of these i've enjoyed and would encourage others to check out! under the cut because. this got. so long. i heart yuri <3

multi-chapter

the princess of sylph (ongoing; self-publishing): plot-heavy fantasy yuri between a bereaved princess with the aura of a thousand sad hamsters and a persistent nun whose silliness conceals a deep well of trauma. gushed about it plenty here. i recommend starting with the serialized version, the proceeding to the twitter version + extras. cw: blood, violence, dismemberment (nothing too graphic, more standard monster-fighting fare).

i love amy (completed): school loner strikes an unlikely friendship with the girl known (and feared) for her violent tendencies and single-minded obsession with the school prince. cute but striking and skilled art with a surprisingly nuanced handling of trauma and neurodivergence. cw: attempted child murder, animal death (non-graphic). there are also depictions of standard yandere fare (kidnapping, torture basements) but they're always presented comedically.

i see you, aizawa-san! (ongoing): girl who steadfastly pretends not to see ghosts meets one she just can't seem to ignore: a deceased classmate and former j-pop idol, who has taken to haunting their classroom. ft. art that harkens back to classic shoujo and a supernatural mystery centred on the relationship between the two leads--that one of them can't seem to remember. cw: blood, body horror.

school zone girls (on hiatus): slice of life yuri comedy ft. a massive interconnected web of girls spanning at least three schools. it juggles gut-busting comedy with genuine heartfelt moments of character growth and connection and expresses it all through a solid, dynamic art style. the sprawling cast also makes for incredible outsider pov moments that lets us really appreciate how far some characters have gotten. this genuinely motivated me to revamp how i approached ensemble casts for my ocs.

brides of iberis (completed): wedding planner unenthusiastic about her engagement falls in love with a bride she's taken as a client. bittersweet but deeply loving; and so compassionate to each and every character, even the men the female leads have relationships with. cw: infidelity.

destroy it all and love me in hell! (ongoing): model student finds her miserable, tightly controlled life unraveling after being blackmailed by the class truant into indulging her ugliest impulses. toxic yuri extravaganza eleganza between two girls desperate for escape and the catharsis of fucking! shit! up!!! also hits that sweet sweet "love triangle as a conflict of ideals" beat. cw: blackmail, coercion, bullying, violence, emotional abuse, physical abuse, verbal abuse, adult/minor relationship.

yuri is forbidden for the yuri otaku (completed): passionate himejoshi enrolls in an all-girls private school to observe class s yuri in action, but never to engage in it herself--at least, until a misunderstanding wins her the resident gyaru's heart. a surprisingly poignant exploration of being queer in a repressive society and experiencing your queerness through the safety of unobtainable fantasy.

the superstar idol crushes on me today too (ongoing): failed idol-slash-middling radio personality finds an unwanted superfan in the country's biggest superstar. explores the merit of pursuing your artistic passions in the face of repeated failure, and what makes an emotional anchor in the fraught seas of showbiz. they are also just so so funny. what if i emphatically declare you my rival in show business but you've been in love with me since you saw me in a cooking show as a child actor and you take any excuse to spend time with me and have my attention with blinding enthusiasm

normality and monsters (ongoing): outcast weirdo witnesses the class idol devour their homeroom teacher in one bite and begs to be trained in the art of appearing normal. the art is snappy and charismatic, the monster design is properly grotesque, and the friendship of convenience between the two leads teeters between overcoming the monster's nature and just being a prelude to the monster acquiring a new meatsuit. cw: blood, gore, death, body horror.

a monster wants to eat me (ongoing): suicidal girl meets carnivore mermaid who promises to eat her if she develops a desire to live. it's been a while since i read this one, but the monster designs are once again sick as fuck and the drama of being cared for by a creature that finds you tantalizing is sooo juicy. cw: suicidal ideation, blood, gore, violence, body horror.

liar satsuki can see death (completed): high schooler who can see corpses before the death occurs strives to save as many lives as possible despite being branded a liar by the entire student body. this and ryouko's other manga, a walk to death, are pretty banging declarations on the value of living ironically (or maybe aptly) wrapped in so much death. blanket cw for blood, gore and death bc i tell you every mini-arc somebody dies in a fun new way and we'd be here all day if we listed them out.

anthology:

i'm the villainess but i'm being captured by the heroine?!: an anthology featuring heroines of otome games swerving hard and sweeping the villainess off her feet. i am such a sucker for villainess yuri. mean women forever. my favourite chapters are vol. 1 ch.1 and vol. 2 chs. 1 and 4.

honourable mentions:

my idol sits the next desk over! (completed): loner idol otaku ends up deskmates with her oshi and between jealous sabotage from a rival stan and the herculean task of acting normal around your fave, lands herself in the first and closest friend group of her life. one girl does explicitly have romantic feelings for another girl, but i bumped it down here because it isn't explored to the extent it could have been. it felt like it was setting up a slow burn only to end abruptly. do not recommend if you want a love story, do recommend if you want lonely people forging deep and enduring bonds of friendship.

the one within the villainess (ongoing): the villainess of an otome game reawakens for her condemnation and sets off on a path of vengeance for the sake of the beloved transmigrator who's occupied her body for years. it's ostensibly het, but to hear the way that the villainess speaks of her transmigrator, the first person to love her wholeheartedly and wish for her happiness and so inadvertently prevent her from becoming the hollow bitter woman she originally grew into...... like. that is yuri. like what if i knew your life in its entirety and loved you for it and i found myself in the position to give you the happiness i always wished for you to have. what if we wrote fix-it fic for each other on the fabric of the universe. what if we never even had a conversation but we knew each other the best and loved each other most. and we were both girls. do you understand why i'm insane about them. cw: blood, gore, violence.

milf adam au,, again,,

pov:

you're one of cain's friends at his house for a sleepover and you meet his mother, who is baking cookies in the kitchen and you swear he is the only image to come up when you search "milf" on google-

you thought the hottest moms only exist in fiction, but here adam is, doting on you sweetly because you're a friend of his oldest son's, who's really embarrassed that his friend is receiving such attention, even though his mom insists there's nothing to be ashamed of!

"is she single, cain? you never told me you had a real life milf for a mom!"

"she's definitely not single, and don't call her that in front of me, jeez."

and cain would be right because lucifer comes home the same day and is exhausted from his work, and adam, with that same seductive tone, is doting on his stressed out husband and suggests that after they've done with dinner, that he could give him a "special massage" for working so hard, iykyk-

"Cain, I adore meeting every one of your friends. You still haven't explained why they stopped coming..."

He would never lie to his milf of a mother, but in this instance, Cain could not forgive his friend's last comments. Especially when they have the audacity to say such bold things in his presence, about his mom.

"If you're not making her yours, I'm about to come over and be your father, lol!"

After a good ass-whooping, Cain's friends have been prohibited from ever coming back. After all the work she'd done to cook for the boys, after Adam had taken her time to bake for them, she deserves the truth does she not?

Cain almost wants to work together with Lucifer, but he was his next menace, and one he just can't kick out of the home that easily. It's not fair that his papa got such a snatch of a wife, he was sure lucky to be Adam's son, but still. He should have been her man too!! 💢💢

He sits through the excruciating moments while he hears Lucifer please Adam, and vice versa as her moans pool from their bedroom. But it's all worth it to hear mama's happy whines after her own hardwork of taking good care of the home acksSKSKSK--
