IT RUNS IN HIS BLOOD, BOILING AND NEVER EVAPORATES

akashi seijūrō

seijūrō holds three notable positions since he entered rakuzan: the class representative, the student council president, and the captain of basketball team. they are not merely a titular status, seijūrō has full authority to decide what he deem the best for his class, which rules are necessary for the growth of students during their transition to adults, what kind of practice and people that can bring and preserve the reigning of the team. leadership is intrinsic for him; it runs in his blood since way back then, keeps boiling, and never once it evaporates. it is bursting even more now in his first year of high school with many having put him on a pedestal. the smoke around him is dangerous; the untouchable emperor with absolute orders in his hands. once he speaks, he does not take any refusal. everything goes his way on the right track. he never rests or lets his guard down even for a moment. he is still standing firm with load on his shoulders getting bigger through time although behind everyone’s eyes, he feels millimeters away from breaking down because when all those are robbed of him, who is he?

Songs that fit ASP and lyrics to prove it

There are seven songs so I'm gonna put a cut here. Also there's a little bit of story and discussion for one of them.

No Children by The Mountain Goats: And I hope when you think of me years down the line You can't find one good thing to say And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out You'd stay the hell out of my way I am drowning There is no sign of land You are coming down with me Hand in unlovable hand And I hope you die I hope we both die

God Must Hate Me by Catie Turner: Got ample mental illness, personality flaws While their only flaw seems to be is that they have none at all Do you ever see someone and think "Wow, God must hate me" I'll let 'em take accountability For everything that's wrong with me Can't hold myself responsible So I blame the metaphysical

Francis Forever by Mitski: On sunny days I go out walking I end up on a tree-lined street I look up at the gaps of sunlight I miss you more than anything [...] And autumn comes when you're not yet done With the summer passing by, but I don't think I could stand to be Where you don't see me [This is Finny's ghost to Gene :(] Final Duet (fan lyrics) by OR3O: When the nights get too lonely When the skies become gray It's okay, it's okay Just take everything day by day And you will see It's not as bad as it seems

Love Like You from Steven Universe: I always thought I might be bad Now I'm sure that it's true 'Cause I think you're so good And I'm nothing like you Look at you go I just adore you I wish that I knew What makes you think I'm so special

[Ok this is a stretch but] Satisfied by MARINA: High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me 'Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die

Seventeen (Reprise) from Heathers: Listen up folks War is over Brand new sheriff's come to town We are done with acting evil We will lay our weapons down We're all damaged, we're all frightened We're all freaks but that's alright We'll endure it, we'll survive it [Finny], are you free tonight? [...] I can't promise no more Heathers High school may not ever end Still, I miss you, I'd be honored If you'd let me be your friend

Ok so for the last one the context is it's definitely after the first fall... I think when Gene visits Finny after the second fall or Finny's surgery from said fall turns out ok and he's on crutches again.

The characters are Gene, Finny, Brinker and Leper trying to be like normal again (but I know this is dumb cause Lep is LITERALLY CLINICALLY INSANE A PYSCHO). I'd like the situation to be the first option because there's a line that says, "Let's go be seventeen [...] Act like we're all still kids, cause this could be our final chance!" and the irony is that it IS their final chance cause you all know what happens in surgery then 😒

But I don't know how to have them all partying if Finny's literally still in the bed, like he's not moving all that much 💀💀💀💀 Anyway I need to learn how to draw Brink and Lep if I do this
