#he'll leave okinawa some day

[hitoripiledriver]

I think Reki’s sense of home and place is incredibly tied to the ocean.

yes, he’s young, and antsy, and he wants to travel everywhere. and he would love to see everything, genuinely, but in the long term he feels too strongly connected to the ocean and the island to ever truly stay away. 

he wouldn’t do well if you took him out of a coastal region and dropped him in a major city. he’d feel too claustrophobic surrounded by all the concrete and bright lights. he’d enjoy it for a little bit but long term he wouldn’t be able to stand it, as much as he thrives off chaos he needs it to balance with contentment that comes from seaside towns. 

the same goes for the mountainside, where it’s far too quiet and disconnected — it’d push him to restlessness without the energy that seems to simmer next to the coast. 

he wants to travel and see everything but at the end of the day the ocean is what he grew up with, and he needs that to slow him down and pull him back to reality

i see you're thinking about your boys ..... let me slide in here to be a gremlin 🙃😘

your boys are taking you out for the day! (it's your choice whether these are one on one adventures or if the three of you are going on a field trip <3)

Where are you going? What are you doing? What souvenirs are they buying you to remember the day?

bonus question!!!! - they lose you in the crowd - what do they do??

(honestly this whole scenario was inspired bc i remembered that one suguru fic of yours with the butterflies)

Love you 💖🫂

AKJHFAKJHGKJSHAKJHGLKJDHG ROXY STOP ENABLING ME don't stop i love my boys so bad and yesssss my botanical gardens fic!!! suguru's such a sweetheart in that one. sigh.

ok ok putting this under a cut bc i already know this is gonna get long bc i am So Down Bad

so, starting with solo expeditions:

satoru flies us to okinawa just to go to the aquarium. he knows how much i love aquariums in general but especially the whale sharks (plus my family lived in okinawa for a few years when i was little and we visited that specific aquarium fairly often!). he takes me to lunch (or maybe dinner, depending on how long i keep him at the aquarium looking at the tanks and rambling abt things) and then dessert, and then usually we spend the night bc i'm too sweepy to deal with another flight in one day. he spoons me in the hotel bed while i spoon my new plushie.

suguru takes me (& my dog) to the park in nice weather, or if it's raining/otherwise not pleasant outside, he'll take me to some sort of live theater, or to a museum; somewhere he can just watch me enjoy myself, without us having to do a lot of talking. he doesn't always get me a souvenir, but sometimes we'll buy postcards or stickers from the museum gift shop. we go for udon or ramen for dinner, and then he takes me home & lets me curl up with him while he reads to me (usually in japanese, but if i've done a fair amount of talking out in public he'll read to me in english) until i fall asleep in his lap. then he carries me back to bed and we cuddle.

the three of us usually will do something a little more laid back & casual, like a picnic, or going to the movies, things that'll let us just have a good time together without having to think about it too much. it's always really nice to spend time with both of them, since a lot of the time at least one of us is out of town on a mission.

i don't get lost in crowds often bc they watch me like a hawk + i'm usually holding onto them in some way, but on the rare occasion that i do get swallowed by the crowd - in the museum, or aquarium, or even at the very few and far between concert - they always panic a bit, because even though they know i'm not helpless, they can't help but worry about me bc they're so protective (of me & each other). thankfully they're both Significantly Taller than the general japanese population and can skim the crowd for me fairly easily, but if they can't see me pretty quick, they'll call my name or whistle a little designated tune (just a few notes, really) to get my attention. unfortunately for them i have auditory processing issues so sometimes they have to whistle for me/call my name multiple times before i respond. once they have me back, it's usually not long before we leave bc at that point at least one of us is frazzled and just want to go home.

clearly i love them so much it's absurd kjhgkhsgkshkh thank you for asking abt them roxy!!! ily 🥺💜

WELL. ive been putting off a proper character introduction post for katsu due to lack of sufficient motivation but HERE WE ARE FINALLY. my silly boy katsu. my darling son. my lizard kitty thing. lil long under the cut :)

full name: katsu arahata race: raen au ra gender: cis male sexuality: gay height: 6 feet 11 inches nameday: 23rd sun of the 3rd astral moon age: 24 at the start of ARR. turns 25 shortly after stormblood, and turns 26 the same day patch 6.4 happens birthplace: southern shishu (whatever xiv's equivalent to okinawa is) occupation pre-ARR: lived in kugane with his parents, worked at the mujikoza theater primarily doing music for plays. reason for beginning journey: grew tired of his mother telling him how to run his life even as an adult as well as feeling like he had to live and breathe for the sake of the arahata family and nothing else, so he left kugane without warning, leaving only a note to his parents. residences: was born in southern shishu and raised there until age 5-6, when his mother decided she wanted him to get a better education in a more affluent part of hingashi, so they moved to kugane. eventually buys an apt & then a house in limsa. overall disposition: tends to be generally friendly and warm to most folks he meets, but the degree of such is based on how much he trusts you. for strangers, the friendliness is just a facade he puts up to keep himself safe, but once he trusts you he becomes a lot more genuine and expressive. loves making his friends laugh. has issues with anxiety and sensory overload but tends to hide them due to aforementioned trust issues, and only talks about them to his closest friends. enjoys learning and likes a bit of adventure, but generally prefers taking it easy. initially a bit of a pushover pre-ARR until EW due to habitual interpersonal conflict avoidance, but deep down greatly values his own agency. notable negative traits: can sometimes be distrustful, occasionally dishonest, avoidant, and ever so slightly vengeful. can be stubborn at times. copes with reality by romanticizing awful things or deluding himself that stakes are low even when they are not. and if that fails, he'll feel compulsions to abandon everything that he's worked for and start over anew... which he has given into at least once. hobbies: has a deep passion for the arts in general. has taken classes for folk singing and multiple instruments during his teens. worked backstage doing music for the mujikoza in his early 20s. enjoys theater but could never see himself taking the spotlight, claiming itd be too stressful. enjoys both pencil illustration and sumi-e painting, particularly when the subject is anything in nature. during MSQ, he learns a little bit from each crafter's guild in eorzea, but ends up enjoying weaving and carpentry the most, bowmaking especially. also keeps a pet tokay gecko named oyabun.

favorite color: he's a sucker for blue, but also likes a nice bright red. favorite food: unadon (bbq eel over rice) romantic interests: had brief crushes on martyn and aymeric that he never pursued. also developed an attraction to his then-best friend thancred in post ARR. did not pursue him either until post HW, but even then kept it relatively unofficial. it wasnt until late STB that they made things official between them. classes: -had some sojutsu (spear arts) training as a teenager as part of his education, so he uses polearms as his weapon of choice for all of ARR til SHB. begins his dragoon training in ARR as well. -picks up BLU during post ARR just for fun. -picks up DNC during post SHB initially on a whim but later as an outlet for expressing his emotions. -picks up BRD post EW for similar reasons, and also as a way to have a "fresh start" after everything that happened to him during MSQ. -picks up DRK directly after 6.4. initially just wanted to learn swordplay in general while trying to conjure a blade of light at will to defeat zeromus, but his dark magic is warped by the lightcrystal given to him by yshtola in 6.2, essentially becoming a custom class. never actually named by anyone in game (i think?) but my name for it is arch knight, or ARK, based on the ff tactics class.

Get ready to be publicly embarrassed you winner- 💀💀

[kentobean]

just one day

a/n: I would like to give credit to this. it inspired me to write this little scene. it's a drabble, the ending could've been better but I'm really liking it as well. anyways, enjoy. feedback is appreciated. no warnings except: gojo does swing Megumi around.

Gojo has always claimed that Nanami has always been serious. He can't remember the last time that Nanami Kento's cracked a joke (that he understood) or when was the last time Nanami went out somewhere 'fun.'

His most recent claim is that Nanami doesn't know how to relax. That Nanami's never had a day where he's just said 'fuck it' and did something spontaneous. Of course, this results in Nanami glaring at Gojo and telling him that not everyone is protected from the pains of getting older in this cruel world (he understands his friend had to grow up fast, but why couldn't Gojo be understanding as well?).

So imagine Gojo Satoru's surprise when Nanami Kento calls him, unprompted, and informs Gojo that he'll be forwarding flight information and hotel reservations later in the day.

The first few days were spent exploring Okinawa Island (you told Gojo to let Nanami enjoy what he wants to do, it's not very often Nanami decides to go on vacation and have his own kind of fun). Shuri castle, Churaumi Aquarium, some shopping, sight-seeing, food-tasting.

It's day five out of ten of the vacation and everyone collectively agreed to just have a lazy beach day. Tomorrow and the days after would be dedicated to visiting Okinawa World and whatever else they wanted to do, or see.

Nanami lies comfortably on the lounge chair, shirt unbuttoned, book in hand and sunglasses resting low on his nose. The umbrella's positioned so that there's shade over his head, but his lower body is bathes in sunlight.

There's a small smile that's settled itself on Nanami's face from the first day. Gojo's teased about it, but Nanami doesn't care. He likes this feeling. Work is the very least of his worries at the moment.

Nanami's concentration on this specific page has been broken. He's been attempting to reread this page for the last ten minutes, but every time he hears Yuuji's excited squeals and your brilliant laughter, he has to look up.

Yuuji and Nobara are throwing themselves into the small waves rolling towards the sand. Occasionally, they'll find themselves under water for a few seconds before emerging with big gasps and erupting into laughter before repeating the process all over again. It makes Nanami chuckle because no matter how times they throw themselves into the ocean, their reaction is always the same.

Megumi's walking around you, stick in hand and just drawing shapes. Gojo's informed Nanami and you that he's very fond of wolves at the moment and you see it when he creates shapes and adds wolf ears to them. He gets a little sad when the water sweeps away his creations, but it's just a new start. He lets another roll of water tickle his toes before making similar shapes, but with new little details.

The sight before him makes Nanami's heart soar. He's reaching over for his drink (he can't believe you've convinced him to enjoy some day drinking, but he won't complain) when he hears Gojo shout alarmingly.

Nanami's pushing himself up, ready to run towards the shore, but stops short when he sees Gojo laughing loudly, holding poor Megumi by his leg. Nobara and Yuuji watch with wide eyes, Gojo using the opportunity to show off his strength by lightly swinging Megumi and bringing Megumi to hang by his leg, behind Gojo and facing his friends with a somewhat blank stare, except for his wide eyes flickering back and forth between Yuuji and Nobara.

Gojo manages to swing Megumi so that Megumi sits on his hip and Gojo's head is tilted back, laughter bellowing from him.

Yuuji, Nobara, and yourself are watching in disbelief as Gojo walks towards Nanami with Megumi in his arms.

-

It's quiet.

You and Nobara went to the restroom, leaving Yuuji and Megumi with their respective caregivers.

Yuuji's asleep on Nanami's chest, Nanami using his shirt as a makeshift blanket. Nanami's drink in his hand, taking a small sip. His book turned face down because he'd rather just relish in this little moment. Of Nanami and Yuuji on the beach, the little one asleep in his father's arms and his father just living quietly in that moment, just appreciate it and lock in an area he'd lose it.

Megumi's asleep against Gojo, preferring to curl up again Gojo, covered by the man's shirt (Gojo knows that though Megumi won't admit it, he's always felt slightly colder when in the shade). Gojo's hand is the boy's dark hair, but it just sits there comfortably.

Nanami closes his eyes, listening to the sound of the beach. Of the water rolling in on itself and of when those waves soften to nothing, brushing against the sand, as it takes and as it gives. Of people from the distant, chatter and the sound of children's loud laughter and excited screams mingling with the breeze that comes with just being at the beach. Of the openness; he has no other way to describe what the beach sounds like.

"Hey Kento," Gojo says so softly it takes Nanami by surprise.

Nanami opens an eye, turning to look at Gojo with a short, low hum.

"Thank you," Gojo keeps looking at the water, almost jealous of the color of blue, "I'm glad to see you like this. Relaxed and without stress. So, thanks for letting me this side of you."

Nanami's eyes really look over his face, his own features softening. He turns to look at the ocean with Gojo.

It's quiet. Satoru's words slowly sinking into Kento.

And they sit there. Just... living in the moment, together.

Until.

"No, I was actually really starting to worry. I was telling your partner that-"

"Gojo... I have respect for you," Nanami simply interrupts and he doesn't say anything else. He doesn't need to. Nanami's sure that Gojo understands.

And Gojo does.

I was asked for some headcanons for this fic by a commenter on AO3 and I thought I'd also share my reply over here in case anyone is interested 😊

Okay, so I think Daniel and Johnny will definitely meet again after their summer romance is over. Lucille sent Daniel to Italy for the summer so she can prepare for their big move to California without having Daniel mope about it all summer. She's getting things in order, renting them the apartment at South Seas, enrolling Daniel in West Valley High etc.

But Daniel is still blissfully unaware of the big move. For now, there's only Johnny and Italy. Johnny gets introduced to Daniel's grandmother and he makes the perfect first impression, because he's used to playing a gentleman for Ali's parents and all the waspy folks at the country club.

Daniel has to share a room with Louie, so they don't have a lot of privacy at Nonna LaRusso's house, but luckily Johnny has a whole stinky hotel room to himself 😉 Daniel takes Johnny's V card shortly after the night of clubbing (I think Daniel is more experienced than Johnny and has already had his first time, probably with a childhood friend á la Elio and Marzia in CMBYN) and they spend the rest of Johnny's time in Italy stealing kisses when no one is looking and screwing like rabbits.

Daniel shows Johnny all his favorite spots around the city and makes sure to avoid stuffy museums, except one day when they make a day trip to Florence and Johnny gets to see who "that David guy" actually is 🤭

Johnny's last night with Daniel is SAD 😔 I think Johnny cries, mourning the loss of Daniel and his freedom to be himself, and neither of them is in the mood for sex, so they just lie in bed, curled around each other until dawn comes and they have to say goodbye. Daniel does give Johnny his address and phone number in Newark, but when Johnny tries to call him just before school starts, he discovers that the number is not in use and he's really hurt, wondering if Daniel intentionally gave him the wrong number.

But then there's a bonfire on a beach in California. Johnny sees Daniel bouncing a soccer ball with Ali and he doesn't recognize him until Daniel picks up Ali's broken radio and tries to hand it back. Both of them are too shocked to speak, they just stare at each other in stunned silence. The Cobras want to see Johnny kick Daniel's ass and Dutch is like "are you gonna let this little punk get away with hitting on your girlfriend??", which makes Ali blow a fuse, because she and Johnny are NOT together anymore 😤

I think Johnny would just end up fleeing. He'd hop on his bike and drive away and spend the rest of the night getting drunk and having a massive internal crisis. Because Johnny can't be himself in the Valley. He's got to play a very specific role for his friends, and especially for Kreese, and the Ace Degenerate can't have feelings for another boy.

So I think things would be pretty messy for the first half of the semester. Daniel probably feels like Johnny is a completely different person and he mourns the loss of the sweet boy he got to love in Italy. But I don't think there would be any violence between Johnny and Daniel in this universe. There might be an All Valley, which Daniel would still win, but I can't picture Johnny physically hurting Daniel. And he wouldn't let the Cobras touch him either. He'd just avoid him and treat him like air, which to Daniel is even worse.

Johnny ends up quitting Cobra Kai after the tournament, just like he does in canon, and of course he'll show up at Mr. Miyagi's house one sunny afternoon. He'll apologize to Daniel and Daniel will forgive him, and Mr. Miyagi will take Johnny under his wing. And this is the proper beginning of their relationship, which will blossom the following summer when Mr. Miyagi flies to Okinawa and leaves Daniel and Johnny in charge of his house 😉 I think this is a relationship that will last. This could even be a prequel to the post-canon Livin' On A Prayer AU or the domestic AU where Daniel and Johnny have kids together from my Lawrusso drabble collection. Either way, Johnny and Daniel will be happy together for a long time ❤

Rough prelude for the Sk8 x Pjo AU

Mt Olympus is in Japan, instead of New York so Camp Half Blood is in Okinawa.

You get to Camp Half Blood the same way that you would get to "S". The mine is covered with the Mist so mortals don't find it. It's quite easy to skateboard, and a lot of demigods take to doing so.

This post has the godly parents for everyone, but I changed Miya's godly parent to Zeus.

Tadashi is a Satyr, sent to retrieve Ainosuke.

Ainosuke takes Luke's role serving Kronos in the AU.

Kojiro and Kaoru meet Adam while on the run from monsters, and the four of them travel together (I want to say that they're about 13-14 at this point?)

They eventually meet a seven year old Miya, a runaway son of Zeus, and take him with them.

After a year of crazy hijinks, Tadashi finds them, and they head back to camp.

But before they can get to camp, they're attacked by a cyclops.

I don't know the specifics yet, but Miya ends up dying, and Zeus takes pity on him, and turns him to a pine tree so he can live.

The rest of the four are heavily distraught by this.

Kojiro, Kaoru, and Adam become inseparable at camp, as they are in canon.

Kojiro, Kaoru, or Adam often visit Miya's tree, and talk to him.

Adam is eventually sent on a quest by Aphrodite (his godly parent), and the quest goes awry.

Adam won't give the details, but he's definitely changed after the quest.

He begins to leave camp for days, to even weeks at a time. He also goes way to far during training, brutally injuring other demigods.

Kojiro and Kaoru confront Adam, but eventually it proves fruitless, and the three grow apart.

Reki usually goes to camp for the summer, because he can't stand being away from his family for too long, but occasionally the monster attacks will get bad, so he stays for some time in the winter.

Langa and Nanako move to Japan, because the monster attacks in Canada get too bad, and Nanako wants Langa to learn to protect himself.

Langa also normally goes to camp in the summer, but like Reki, he'll go in the winter if things get too bad.

Shadow, Kojiro, Adam, and Kaoru are counsellors of their respective cabins.

Kaoru, Kojiro, Adam, and Shadow are year-rounders.

The flower shop girl that Shadow has a crush on is a wood nymph in this.

Kaoru and Kojiro still have their rivalry, and so their cabins have to suffer as a result.

Capture the Flag with the Apollo and the Athena cabin on different sides? Get ready for chaos.

Reki creates a lot of skateboards, but because of the magical materials at camp, they get some pretty interesting power-ups.

Some can fly, some have a number of defence mechanisms against monsters.

Langa is the one who gets Riptide, because I said so.

And yeah I think that's all I have so far.

GOOGLY EYES

part 19: blink

prev - masterlist - next

written portion:

Akaashi woke up before you and found you clinging to his torso. He could hear your breathing and in any attempt in getting up, you began to whimper in your sleep. You were snuggled against Akaashi's chest and had your legs intertwined with his. Akaashi began to run his fingers through your hair while waiting for you to wake up.

Bokuto, being the energetic boy he is, entered Akaashi's room without knocking. The rest of his roommate stood behind him but Akaashi almost immediately gave them the death stare. Hearing the footsteps shuffling, you slowly began to wake up. Akaashi shooed the eager boys away as your eyes began to flutter open.

"What?" You mumbled. You found yourself engulfed in Akaashi's arms which almost caused you to panic. "Akaashi!"

"Well good morning to you too," He chuckled as you wiggled out of his hold to find yourself dressed in his shirt.

"Did we- No you wouldn't do that- Ow-" You groaned as your head began to pound. "What did I do last night?"

Akaashi sat up and watched as you covered your eyes with your hands. "We didn't do anything. You just cried over a movie and kept wanting to kiss or hug me."

"Did I say anything stupid?" You peeked through your fingers.

"You called Oikawa Okinawa, told Tsukishima he acts like how sparkling water tastes, and kept telling Bokuto to hoot," Akaashi explained.

You fell back on the mattress, trying to hide your face. "I hate myself," You groaned. You sat up and looked over at the door and notice shadows casting under the doorframe. You got up, tripped over yourself, but made it to the door. The second you opened it, revealed the rest of the household.

"I- Uh- Good morning Y/n," Bokuto stuttering.

"We were just- uh admiring the decorations-" Oikawa blurted.

"That wall is blank," You pointed out.

"We were listening to your conversation," Tsukishima said bluntly.

"Tsukki!" Kuroo punched his arm.

"Thanks blondie," You closed the door on the group and turned to Akaashi. "Can you drop me off? I wanna go home to shower- oh shit."

"What's wrong?" Akaashi walked up to you to fix your hair.

"I don't have pants," You pouted.

"You can borrow my old volleyball shorts," He smiled. "I washed your jacket by the way. You dropped it in a puddle when we were walking into the house."

"Thanks Akaashi," You sighed.

After getting changed and passing through his nosy roommates, Akaashi drove you to your house. "I'll call you later," You say. Akaashi turns to you and pecks your cheek. You cheeks almost immediately turned red. You turned to face him and kissed right beside his lips. "See you." You rush out of his car and sped walked to your front door.

Once inside, you find your cousin face down on the couch, Hinata holding onto Daichi and Sugawara hiding in a blanket. "Geez what happened to them?" You ask.

Kageyama heard your voice and perked up. "This is your fault!" He pointed at you. "You said that we should go out drinking!"

"No! You said yourself that you and Hinata were bored! Suga was the one who suggested drinking!" You argued.

"Hey! Leave me out of this!" Sugawara yelled. In the midst of you and your cousin arguing, Daichi wiggled out of Hinata's hold.

"Both of you shut up!" Daichi growled. The room fell silent and you began to explain what you did last night. After cleaning up and taking care of your hangover, Akaashi texted you.

Around six, you began to get ready to go out. You pulled your hair up and got dressed. You adjusted your scarf in the mirror before hearing a knock at your door.

"Hey, do you- Oh? Where are you going?" Asahi asks as he entered the room.

"Akaashi is taking me out somewhere," You say.

"Ooo, where to?" Asahi seats himself on the bed and watches as you got ready.

"Not sure," You say. You turn to Asahi to get approval of your outfit.

"Looks good. Man, why hasn't he asked you out yet?" He asked.

"I don't know! I'm just waiting patiently," You sighed. "Y'know when I was drunk, all I could ask was why he won't ask me out."

"Maybe he'll ask you out today?" Asahi suggests. You punch his shoulder. "Ow! What was that for?"

"Getting my hopes up," You say. You see a message from Akaashi then turn to Asahi. "Get out of my room now, he's here to pick me up." Your roommate leaves the room ahead of you. You quickly grabbed you keys, said goodbye to the boys and headed outside. Akaashi unlocks the doors to his car as you approached.

“Here, it’ll help with the hangover,” He hands you a drink as you settle in the car.

“Thank you, where are we going?” You ask. 

“Somewhere,” Akaashi says. You sighed and just went with whatever he said. As he drove, some of the roads became familiar.

“Wait-” You sat up as Akaashi pulled into a back road. “Are we going to mountain point?”

“I knew you’d figure it out. Kageyama said you used to go here when you were younger,” He says, parking the car. “You ready?”

The two of you got out of the car, Akaashi carrying something behind him and hiked a little to the cliff side. To which there was a picnic set up by the benches. “Did you set this up?” You smiled. He nodded and led you to the picnic blanket. You sat down beside him as he put a basket of food between the two of you. 

You moved the cloth away from the top of the basket to reveal your favorite foods and your favorite boba drink. “I thought it’d be nice to have a little picnic as the sun sets,” Akaashi explained. You pecked his cheek before you both began to munch on your dinner. It was a nice feeling just to be with Akaashi and not to worry about any bad things in the world. 

Once it turned dark, you two moved to sit down at the back of his car with the trunk open. You sat close to him as the wind began to blow cold air against your arms. “Thank you Akaashi,” You say. “Thank you for making me happy these past few weeks. Thank you for taking care of me when I was drunk.”

“Thank you Y/n,” He responded. You sat up and looked at him. “Thank you for giving me another chance. I put you through some shitty things but I’m glad you let me back into your life. You could’ve said goodbye to me once- well you know what I’m talking about but you didn’t. And I’ll take care of you any day, drunk or not, I’ll try my best to be there for you.” Akaashi turns to reach something behind him.

“What are you getting?” You questioned. He turns back to you and holds a box.

“When you were drunk, you kept asking me a question,” He chuckled. “I guess I was just trying to figure out how to. So, Y/n, I was wondering if you’d be mine, officially?”

Akaashi hands you the box and you open it to reveal three muffins. “Are you serious?” You looked up at him. “I hate poppy seed muffins.”

“Huh?” He laughed. “Did you hear what I said?”

“Yes I did,” You leaned over and kissed his lips. Sitting back down, you pulled out the muffins. “Yes, I’d like to be yours. But next time, not poppy seed muffins.” You chuckled as you handed him one of the muffins.

“You’re something else, y’know?” Akaashi laughed. He pecks your cheek as you picked off and ate small pieces of the muffin.

“Hope you know, you’ll find a bunch of googly eyes around your room now,” You smiled. You pecked his lips once more.

a/n: one last one after this :O
