#history lessons from cat lmao

[catreginae]

How many of you guys were in the LOZ fandom pre-Hyrule Historia? Everyone was trying to figure out the timeline and there was two camps of people. Either the timeline was linear or people thought there was a split after OOT - child and adult.

And then Nintendo releases this book and there's THREE timelines.

We didn't consider three timelines from OOT, like what the fuck? The fandom collectively flipped their shit, picked it apart, Nintendo was wrong. I still stand by Nintendo not having a set idea for a whole timeline while making most of the games and cobbled something together when asked to do so. Like, I don't think they care about it as much as we do to this day.

And now it's like super normal in the LU fandom. Like hehe downfall duo. For a long time, nobody thought there was one!

Not to say people aren't still arguing about it to this day. Like, now there's BOTW and TOTK are the weird ones.

Liked, OOT walked so that TOTK could run.

Hello 👋 can you please write dating headcanons for Uramichi and Mitsuo from Life lessons with Uramichi Oniisan? Thank you ☺️

Dating Headcanons ft. Uramichi Omota & Mitsuo Kumatani

tori’s note: sorry this took me so long, anon. i suck at writing headcanons for some reason lmao

Uramichi

you met Uramichi when he came into the digital planning department after being sent to invite you to a work party.

You were talking (arguing) with Kikaku about some new toy design when he walks in, though the conversation continues

Uramichi is surprised when you get Kikaku to retreat and stop his yelling. Uramichi is intimidated by you, and yet he finds himself drawn to you at the same time

After talking to you he realizes you’re actually a very kind person. You just don’t take Kikaku’s shit and he respects you for it

He seeks you out at the work party and spends the entire evening talking to you. You’re so drawn to each other and find it super easy to have a conversation last hours and you were both sad when the party comes to an end

He surprises himself when the words “would you like to get dinner sometime” leave his mouth. But he’s even more surprised when you say yes. The rest is history

Despite what some may think, he’s not great at communication.

He’s been so used to handling his own problems that it doesn’t really occur to him that he should talk them through with you.

But, all you have to do is bring it up once for him to realize his mistake and correct it. It’s a bad habit, and it’ll take some time to break it, but he does his best because he wants to be the best for you.

Just because you’re dating doesn’t mean his depressive episodes will go away. He’ll have his days when all he wants to do is curl into bed and hide away from the world.

On these days, be patient with him. Give him his space but remind him that you will always be there for him

He’s for sure very playful with you. With other’s, he often comes off as quiet and closed off. But around you, he’s smiling, laughing, actually enjoying himself.

He’s a bit touch starved. Between his childhood and his unsuccessful love life up to this point, he’s never received much physical affection.

Because of this, he’s attached to your hip almost constantly. He’s always touching you in some way, whether it be his arms wrapped around your waist or your pinkies interlocked.

He’s not very big on pda though. He much prefers to leave his physical affection at the house. unless no one’s looking lol

You take a lot of evening walks. The quiet street, the cool night air, and his warm hand wrapped around yours. Yep, those are your favorite.

He’s the type that enjoys cuddling on the couch. Whether you’re watching a movie or sitting in silence, he doesn’t care. he’s with you, that’s all that he needs.

Mitsuo

You met him at the store when buying cat food

You were mumbling to yourself, trying to decide if you should get chicken or shrimp when Mitsuo walks up beside you to pick something up

He overheard you talking to yourself and ended up suggesting a food brand, which ultimately led you to talk about your new cat and show him pictures, which he thoroughly enjoyed

After that, you would bump into each other in the pet section every now and then until one day he just blatantly asks you out

He loves to take you fishing. Even though he’s the one who puts the bait on the hook and takes the fish off cause it grosses you out

No one does emotional support like Mitsuo. Anytime you’re upset about something, he’s right there beside you with his arsenal of things that he knows will make you feel better

There is absolutely no hiding your feelings from him. He’s perceptive, and when your mood shifts even a little, he notices. And there’s no point in lying or brushing it off. He knows, and you know he knows

He’s actually amazing at communication. He knows when to speak and when to let things be. And while he typically doesn’t speak on things, it’s different with your relationship. He knows how crucial it is and he doesn’t disregard it.

He’s mild when it comes to physical affection. He likes to cuddle, but it if starts to get too hot, he’s the first to untangle himself from you lol

When he makes out with you though? whew

He doesn’t mind pda, but he’s not super obvious about it. he’ll hold your hand around others just fine. but expect him to steal kisses the moment people look away

Despite being a usually quiet and reserved person, he’s very open around you, especially in private

You are required to watch every man-eating salmon movie at least once lol

Speaking of man-eating salmon, it makes him laugh. It’s one of the few things that makes him genuinely chuckle like a goofball. His laugh sounds like heaven

You two definitely start fostering cats. It accidentally started with 1, and then it turned into 3, and then into 5

You’ll go back and forth on the pros and cons of possible adopters, which will sometimes turn into silly, unserious arguments lol

BB!TPB Titles

Having some fun just absentmindedly thinking of titles for the BB overhauls of main arc books. I think I'm gonna do it for all of them, because I actually really like renaming these and explaining my thought process

But here's TPB for now, because it's on my mind after that little scene bundle I wrote

Below the cut;

Arc Rename: The Prophecies Begin -> The Forest Four

Into the Wild -> Into the Clans

Fire and Ice -> Thermal and Undertow

Forest of Secrets -> Forest of Flowers

Rising Storm -> Rejected Rites

A Dangerous Path -> The Hunting Trail

The Darkest Hour -> Before the Dawn

The Forest Four

It's the intro to the original four, y'know? Plus, I use this term all the time in Clan Culture entries to specify when something is different about SkyClan from the "Forest Four." Makes sense it's the arc title.

Plus, there's a bit of a thing going on, especially in the later books, where the number of the Clans comes up a lot. Three Great Clans, but only four modern ones, River and Shadow combine to make TigerClan leaving three, BloodClan would make four, LionClan's alliance leaving two...

In BB, they know about SkyClan in history lessons, but Firestar doesn't think about it much until after this arc is done. More importantly, his choice to spare Scourge at the end of the arc suddenly means there's a Forest Four, and a Town One. I just think that's interesting.

(for some reason I also just love Scourge's insult where he calls Firestar a "forest fool" lmao. four forest fools.)

Into the Clans

The book with the expanded intro to the culture of the Clans. I feel like it's more fitting for BB to not call it "into the WILD" because... well, Clan cats DON'T see themselves as ""wild"" like animals. They're in Clans, with culture. They have ranks, politics, family, and even cooking and little kitty tools. It doesn't really make sense to me that they define themselves as "wild" just because their home has nature.

To them, loners are who's "wild," y'know? Rusty isn't totally coming to the Clans because it's wild, he's coming because of the community. Friendships and bonds with cats like Ravenpaw, Graystripe, Frostfur, Spottedleaf, Bluestar, and the sense that he could belong here. That he matters to these people.

This title's the one I'm actually waffling the most on, though. I don't like it very much yet. I don't feel like it captures the feeling I'm going for. It's also really close to a field guide title.

Thermal and Undertow

I've always interpreted "Fire and Ice" to be about how differently Graystripe and Fireheart are as people, and how that starts pulling them apart. The thing that people focus on is their "reconciliation" at the end of the book, but what stands out about it to me is that this is the book where Fireheart's TRULY integrated into the Clan.

His friendship with Graystripe is strained because of the HalfClan relationship Gray gets in, and he starts looking back to his roots for comfort because he doesn't feel like he's completely part of ThunderClan. I love this irony; they're BOTH struggling with loyalty in this broken system, experiencing types of xenophobia that prevent them from having happiness, but not yet wise enough to recognize they have a similar problem.

They're both breaking the law to talk to outsiders. Their forbidden love, both familial and romantic, makes Clan life harder. They're BOTH not doing anything wrong, but the STRUCTURE of their society is setting them against each other.

Graystripe responds, eventually, by leaving. Fireheart thinks he can make a home where he is. They're both wrong. The STRUCTURE needs to be challenged.

And meanwhile, they must go to fetch WindClan after it was driven out. They have to face RiverClan AND ShadowClan when Crookedstar and Nightstar show that power acts through them, as leaders. All the while, they experience the simple truth that love for cats in other Clans makes cruel, bloodthirsty battles like these too difficult to be sustainable.

And that's just canon!! I fucking love this book!!!

So in the rename, I'm putting emphasis on the natural flow, above and below. A wind is controlled by the temperature, rising up into a warm thermal. An undertow is a ferocious current that will pull you into the cold depths. They're not so different, in the end.

Forest of Flowers

And that leads right into canon's Forest of Secrets, where we learn that the older warriors also struggled with those pressures. Fireheart and Graystripe were never alone, cats have been suffering under this cruel system for GENERATIONS.

In BB, this is where I'm dropping the flower symbolism for the three major branches of politics in Forest Four society, which persist and are expanded on for the rest of BB;

Traditionalism, represented by the Honeysuckle, is used to justify the current system. "The Clans are branches of a honeysuckle bush. We fight and strangle each other for the light, and this prunes the weakest sprigs and rewards the fittest. When the winter comes, the strongest branches ensure the survival of the bush."

He also learns, much earlier, of Tigerstar's mentor. He hears the Parable of the Thistle, a story about how a young apprentice was forced to attempt to uproot a bull thistle, only managing to spread its seeds across a clearing, and won a trip to the Cleric's den for the trouble. How Tigerstar, and others, believe the honeysuckle must be challenged.

And meanwhile, he uncovers the story of the Forget-me-nots. A friend group even stronger than his collection of allies, with cats of every Clan, and how ambition drove it apart. How Bluestar looks back at it with both silly shame and deep appreciation.

The kindling ember in Fireheart's chest as he realizes he is the heir of a Forget-me-not, and that surrounding the obvious slash across Tigerclaw's nose, are the subtle pockmarks of thistle thorns.

Rejected Rites

I feel like Rising Storm is the "weakest" book of TPB, because it's where canon's cracks begin to show.

There's still a lot I love about this book. I love the way that Bluestar's cruelty arc begins with her grace and altruism towards other Clans not being returned without a catch. I adore the rescue of Bramblekit and Yellowfang’s guilty, harrowing death insisting she deserves judgement as Fireheart insists she is a good person. Its harsh ending revealing Tigerstar as leader of ShadowClan is a gut punch in an already brutal book, making an excellent mid-arc climax

But I feel its sudden turn towards suggesting the status quo was actually good drags it down.

For example, Cloudpaw is constantly arguing with Fireheart, in ridiculous fights Fire started. He's abducted by humans and returns in the same book, suggesting his uncle was totally right all along and he Totally Promises he won't mess with humans any more. The fact Fire was projecting on his young nephew and denying him answers when he questions their way of life, in a way very similar to the shame Firepaw himself went through, is not addressed.

A lot more of this book than you remember is also dedicated to Fireheart and Sandstorm arguing because the writers think a good romance is when you hate each other but stay together anyway.

So instead, this book in BB focuses more on what I DO like; Fireheart learning to be a LEADER. He's young, inexperienced, and has acted mostly alone up to this point. The Clan is in a moment of SERIOUS tumult as it reckons with how no one saw ANY signs about Tigerclaw.

As he loses his mentor Bluestar to paranoia, he has to learn which warriors are truly trustworthy, and try to win back those whose loyalties might stray.

In this way, Rejected Rites is about the WHOLE Clan. It's Whitestorm throwing his reputation and experience behind Fireheart. It's Goldenflower and how her disgust with her ex-mate blows her mind open and she shifts into Fire's most ferocious champion. It's Mousefur deciding that Tigerclaw was a uniquely bad person and refusing to admit fault with a Clan that supported him.

And of course it's about Cloudpaw, grappling with how Fireheart insists he's his mentor, not his father, not his friend, going back to how he botches the Queen’s Rights on bringing him to the Clan. Fireheart, too, is a flawed person capable of being complicit in damaging systems.

The Hunting Trail

The dog plot barely needs a recap, it's this fandom's bread and butter. But there's a small, VERY popular misconception about; in canon, Tigerstar only uses the dogs at the END of this book with a rabbit trick. Before that, the dogs are practically a natural disaster he has nothing to do with.

There's a reason why it's misremembered. It works better if he's more involved with them the whole time, showing how DANGEROUS he is, how Bluestar's fixation on her war with StarClan is blinding her to reality, and adding to the tragedy and madness by having Swiftpaw getting wrapped up in his father's/stepfather's quest for revenge.

So in BB, Tigerstar's involved MUCH sooner. He freed the dogs.

The title change reflects that. There's a hunting trail and the cats of ThunderClan are its prey, but it doesn't specify who the predator is. In the end, it was Tigerstar's scheme all along and Bluestar sacrifices herself to save her apprentice.

(I also want to take the moment to highlight how short-sighted and impulsive Tigerstar's plans actually are, something I find fascinating about him as a character. He's malicious and intelligent enough to make some incredible schemes, taking advantage of every opportunity. But he never accounts for details like... "what if my dogs don't go right to where I want them to go?" or "what if I'm not picked as deputy after I kill Redtail?" or even "what will i do after my demons kill all the living cats?")

TigerClan is also forming earlier. It begins in THIS book. Stonefur and Mistyfoot are "detained" after leaping into the ravine to rescue Fireheart and Bluestar, it's all the "evidence" Tigerstar needed to accuse them of divided loyalty. To finally start his persecution of HalfClan cats.

Before the Dawn

...In spite of its iconic moments, I'll be honest; Darkest Hour is actually the book that makes me the angriest about the original series.

All arc long, we are shown that the Clans are flawed. They have been, long before Rusty set foot in the woods that day. It NEEDS bigotry to exist the way it does, fostering xenophobia between Clan cats so that love and friendship won't get in the way of violence, encouraging and even rewarding extreme Jingoism, and even setting clanmates against each other for these senseless problems instead of the STRUCTURE of Clan society.

Darkest Hour SLAMS the breaks on that theme, and brings the message to a screeching halt.

FIRST of all, this is the book where it's explicitly stated that StarClan "doesn't interfere," even giving them a moment where they yell at protagonist about free will or whatever while simultaneously barking a vague, ultimately useless prophecy at him. The first of many scenes like it in later arcs. It feels completely and utterly out of left field, instantly turning StarClan from a mysterious, possibly not even fully benevolent force, into THE most annoying plot device ever.

Secondly... BloodClan.

BloodClan is introduced as a TRULY EVIL group of horrible atheists who hate love and friendship, to the point of banning families, and are now here to destroy our glorious society and steal our home. They're depicted as being ruled by fear and brutality, unbound by concepts like "honor" or "loyalty." You cannot reason with them or spare their lives, the barbarians must be killed and kept out, lest they replace us.

(there is even a moment where it's implied that if the soldiers lose the war, BloodClan will come and murder the elders and children too.)

It is SO bad and SO egregious, and it's played completely unironically. It bothers me so badly I've talked about it before. Multiple times, actually

After Tigerstar gets his well-deserved grallocking like a 10-point buck, the endgame villain of TPB is a foreigner and his army. Scourge is a foil of Firestar himself, but THIS one hates the clans and doesn't worship the right god, which makes him dangerous. Firestar is textually stronger than him because of his faith in StarClan.

At the end of the day, TPB, and the rest of the series that follows, doesn't refute Tigerstar's ideology. It even agrees. Weakness IS abhorrent. Outsiders ARE to be distrusted. Split loyalties ARE detestable. It just didn't like that he challenged the status quo.

Foreigners and their leaders ARE less trustworthy and more villainous than Clan cats. Wariness and even violence towards them is necessary, "justifying" the isolationist structure of the Clans. Scourge is only the first in a very long chain; then comes Sol, One Eye, Slash, and Darktail. Even Hawkfrost and Willow Tail can fit into this pattern.

With the death of these evil, troublemaking cats, the Clans return to the status quo. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

The Darkest Hour frames this like a wonderful, triumphant thing, with Firestar noting how the now-leaderless BloodClan fighters look so inferior to Clan warriors, Scourge's evil will never haunt them again (Tigerstar gets to be grieved though), and that with LionClan disbanding, they will all return to their petty bullshit squabbles.

So, BB's renaming.

I had a lot of ideas. I really liked the name "Moment of Truth" because it's the book that really brings together the theme of the arc, ending with Firestar realizing Scourge is right to distrust the Clans and that change is DESPERATELY needed, but the more I thought about it... the more I liked Before the Dawn

Reference to the phrase "The darkest hour comes before the dawn" BB is a much more optimistic story than canon, by tweaking the themes and details while following the major beats. Something is just... idk poetic? About picking the more uplifting part of the idiom. It feels right, like it's almost too perfect to go with any other title

It's a new era for the culture going foward It IS right before a "new dawn." It's the start of major changes to Clan culture, setting the events of the rest of BB into motion. The years and generations that follow are going to see major changes to the code, territory, culture, and philosophy in the universe. The choice that Firestar makes here is going to bring the Clans into a new epoch. Plus the cats are crepuscular now so I can literally have the final battle take place just before dawn because subtext is for CHUMPS

I like the idea of opening up the next arc with Dawn Just because that's really funny to me lmaoo. Something is cute about titles that reference each other. Maybe the first book of TNP could be "Dawn of the End" since the destruction of the forest starts early. Maybe add in some apocalyptic prophecies and such...

[liaarxse]

could u headcannons of what the tr characters would do if y/n did this trend with ken, nahoya, chifuyy, baji, kazutora?

Draken is tired of your games

He had to deal with Toman, some punks, MIKEY and now you?

Kill him

Oops already happened

But he did this to himself

A few days ago he "accidentally" ruined one of your favourite dresses with motor oil and only said sorry

So sorry not sorry Dora

"Hey, Y/n? Want a glass of water?"

"Sure."

Perfect timing

He walked towards you to give you the water

You walked away

....

He took 3 steps forward

You took 3 steps backwards

Again

3 steps forward

3 steps backwards

You made 5 full circles around the couch at this point

"Not this shit again"

He went to sit down because man's tired of this

You felt bad and went to him

He turned to you before he sat down

"What?"

"Sorry, c'mere"

He went to hug you

You took a step back

BITCH

LMAOOOOO

Give him a hug pls

You did ofc

Until you could

I'm not sorry

Y'all spent the night just cuddling and talking about how annoying(ly hot) Mikey is

The next morning you did the prank again

He went back to sleep (and never woke up)

Nahoya Kawata

Who made you do this?

You lost your marbles?

LAST PERSON to do this prank on

But you still did

Stupid

Y'all were just chilling at a park

The sun was setting, giving the landscape a pretty peachy-golden tint

It reminded you of your boyfriend who was chasing squirrels behind you

Yeah, you pretended not to know him

He got tired and went to sit next to you

"What'cha starring at, babe?"

"The sun?"

"Ok"

He left to chase a squirrel that he claimed to look like you

Back to not knowing that person

It was getting pretty late, so you gathered y'alls stuff and got up to leave

He was carrying a dead squirrel in his hands

"Babe, look! I caught your doppelganger!"

"Oh, that's nice baby– MOTHER OF GOD–"

You didn't have a choice that fucker started chasing you with it

He lied that he threw it away

He didn't

Half way towards your house he fished it out of his pocket and shoved it in your face

You screamed and took like a fucking backflip backwards

He slowly walked towards you with his iconic grin obv

"Nahoya, no."

"Nahoya, yes."

"I'm gonna break up with you."

"I'll shove this up your ass while you sleep."

Y'all didn't break up ofc

That continued up until like 3 blocks to your house before he threw it inside a house through an opened window

The night at least ended peacefully

You had a nightmare where he did shove it in your ass

Matsuno Chifuyu

Why?

Like why?

Just why?

This happened while you were at a Toman fight

You got a call from Hina that your boyfriend got hurt

So you skiddadled to the place very quickly since you lived like 7 minutes away

It took you 30

When you got there, the fight had already ended

Your boyfriend noticed you and ran with an opened arm since his other was a tad bit injured

You took a step back

🤨

"Hey babe."

"Why did you do that?"

"Did what?"

He took another step towards you

You smiled anyway since it's a kitty after all

"Yo bae, can you please fetch me some kitty clothes to dress up Y/n Jr.?

Ah this time it was you turn

You did of course

And when he walked over to you to grab the clothes

You saw something jump

Then again

And it hit you

Flees

You threw the clothes in his face and ran back

"What the hell?"

"Stay back."

"Why?"

He started walking towards you

You screamed

He was confused af still walking towards you

And you were walking back

This continued for like 7 minutes before you entered the kitchen

You grabbed bug spray

And sprayed him with it

He died

Jkjkjk

He was mad though

Ah, it's fine. You took care of it and cuddled with all 61 cats

Then you saw it again

You jumped out of the window

He jumped after you

Kazutora Hanemiya

This time, there was no specific reason

You were just watching tiktok with him, laying on your chest, trying to sleep

But he couldn't

This was Mikeys fault

"My wheenie needs to take a whee-whee."

"The mental hospital is 10 minutes away."

He got up and went to the bathroom

Then you landed upon the tiktok

Now this, this is perfection

He came back after like, 2 minutes

He crawled back in bed

You got up

"Huh?"

"What?"

He sat on the edge where you stood

You walked away

He walked towards you

"What are you doing?'

"What are YOU doing?"

You barely kept your laugh in when you noticed his face

"This is Mikeys fault isn't it."

"Tora no–"

You did like 6 circles around the room

You got bored with just staying in it and went to the door

He got in front of you and locked it

You stumbled back into the bed

"Baby...~"

HE SAID IT IN HIS HOT DADDY ENGLISH VOICE UGH

Oh-oh guess who's weenie has to take a wee-wee now

Lmao this surely will 'rearrange your guts'

If you know what I mean

Hogwarts Legacy Headcanons 🐍

Just some random headcanons I have for various characters 💚

Sebastian Sallow

He makes comments about EVERYTHING. Not in an annoying way, but on just about any subject he has some sort of opinion or piece of knowledge to share.

He usually falls asleep with a book in hand.

He pays attention to the smallest of details from small actions to the way someone says something.

He treats books with great respect and care. Writing in a book? a sin.

He has more places around the castle that he ventures to read away from others when he craves alone time.

He sometimes skips classes to sneak off to hogsmead for sweets. Usually when he already knows about the lesson in the class he skips.

He eats WELL. And if he doesn't something is wrong.

Also gets hangry.

He’s VERY emotional. When he’s angry, he’s angry. When he’s sad, he’s sad. He wears his emotions and heart on his sleeve.

Ominis Gaunt

He plays piano and composes music.

Some of his songs are composed of what his friends sound like to him, at different times of their relationship. (Ex: he has a song for Sebastian from when he first met him, a song from after they became best friends, and a song from when Sebastian has pissed him off lmao)

He doesn’t care much to have his sight restored anymore. He feels his loss of sight has actually made him see more in people.

Loathes that he was sorted into Slytherin but tries to make the best of it.

He only really speaks to Sebastian because most students avoid him due to his family’s history.

Has spent Christmas with Anne and Sebastian every year at Hogwarts.

He doesn’t care much for sweets.

He only really drinks a cup of tea in the morning. A snack in the afternoon. And one full meal at dinner. Usually just gets by with cups of tea throughout the day. (Equivalent of a caffeine addict)

He LOVES gossip. Him and Anne (and eventually MC) would sit for hours spilling tea. About any and everyone. His favorite gossip was about the professors.

He enjoys sitting on the dock of the black lake because of the way the water smells and the sound.

Very sensitive sense of smell. He can smell almost anything from fire ants to every ingredient/spice used in food.

He likes talking with the ghosts of Hogwarts late at night, Usually because they have juicy gossip.

Garreth Weasley

For a bit of a troublemaker, he’s actually quite studious.

His aunt and him have tea to catch up at least twice a week.

Outside of potions, he enjoys quidditch a lot, And plays a beater.

He has an orange cat named Felix, who sometimes helps him steal potion ingredients.

He gets mail with treats from his family a lot.

By his 7th year, Sharp convinces him to work as his apprentice. He sees potential in him that just needs to be tamed, which leads to him truly being a potions prodigy. (And Hogwarts potions professor)

Poppy Sweeting

She names every beast she meets even if she’ll never see it again.

Sneaks into the forbidden forest constantly to see what beasts lurk there.

She’s well aware people make fun of her for how much she likes beasts but would rather be alone than be with those who ridicule her.

She may be sweet and unassuming, but she has as much of the mischief and cunning of a slytherin.

Also the aggression. (Will fight you and won’t feel bad about it)

She has a locket that has a photo of her Gran in it.

She hardly studies but passes all her classes with good marks.

headcanon - What would the ideal vacation look like with each member? 🌸 Feeling inspired by your spring break theme ☺️

hello, my darling Mallory! 🌷

i love that we are continuing on with a theme! i am definitely taking some of my observations from soop and bon voyage, but i will admit that i have not seen every season of things, and people change over time anyway, so it's all fun and games. and i am adding a reader character to the mix, for fun. and yes, i know i already mentioned joon and museums, but...come on, we all follow his instagram lmao.

an ideal vacation for the members:

Namjoon - a trip with Namjoon is a series of one-way tickets, with a stack of brochures that he has picked up along the way for various trails, monuments, galleries, and museums. you have to pack for every kind of weather, wearing only the most comfortable shoes, because the two of you will be on your feet a lot, more likely to sleep in hostels than hotels. Namjoon is adorably frantic, going from one place to the next while sprinting through topics of conversation, and you keep always make sure he never loses anything important along the way (like his passport!!!) Namjoon talks to every little creature along the way, and you smile to yourself as he sends yet another cat photo to his hyung with the message, "Look! It's you! 😻" and at the end of your long treks through nature and along marble and cement floors, you get dressed up for whatever gastropub and wine bar he finds to end the night in.

Seokjin - this man is finding a hotel central to the nearest theme park, and he is also checking to see what is in theaters. sure, you could watch a movie back home, but you could also watch it anywhere, and anyway, Seokjin is excited to see what kinds of snacks the theater might have. he looks up the finest of dining, and the most interesting food carts, making friends with every manager or chef he can manage to talk to. in the evening, Seokjin is eager to return to the hotel and relax, giving you exactly fifteen minutes of peace before his laptop gaming session turns into incoherent shouting.

Yoongi - Yoongi is a wildcard, because you are never sure if he is going to want to get up early to explore nature with his camera before the morning fog has fully settled, or sleep in until almost noon and find somewhere quaint to have breakfast or lunch. you can always expect a history and architecture lesson, however, and you always come prepared to stand and sit around a lot while Yoongi talks to locals and looks things up, snapping photos and getting lost in his thoughts. he will make reservations to fancy restaurants, stop at dinky holes-in-the-wall, and if a game lines up for a sport he enjoys, the two of you will have the best seats. sometimes you will hotel hop to see different parts of an area, and other times, you will rent a camper van and hit the road for long stretches before settling somewhere in the middle of seemingly nowhere. there are always quiet moments, but they are never dull.

Hoseok - in the first few days of the trip, you always sleep later than Hoseok to give him time to do his hair and choose from one of the many, many outfits that he brought with him; he takes time getting ready, and he is not ashamed. once you finally do head out, he likes to sightsee close to the hotel, tasting local food and taking in scenery. he might want to go to a museum or on a hike, but he is the most interested in walking through the streets and people-watching while finding somewhere to grab a cup of coffee and sit outside before finally going to the high-end shopping centers. Hoseok is just as active at night, finding a concert to attend or somewhere to dance. as the trip wears on and he becomes worn out, hotel robes, room service, and cuddling up with you becomes his favorite things.

Jimin - you absolutely never know what to expect from Jimin, which is what makes traveling with him so exciting. although he is happy to try local food, nothing brightens his day more than finding Korean spots, and he will probably return there a few times during your stay, ordering different things each time. Jimin will do sightseeing, go to museums, and attend events, but he does not stay in one place for too long, always taking you by the hand and dragging you off to your next destination. pack several swimsuits when going on vacation with Jimin, and several outfits for various kinds of nightlife scenes.

Taehyung - luxury, luxury, luxury. Taehyung likes the penthouse suites, the jazz clubs, renting out that hideously expensive golfing room in Vegas. he also likes to jump into the ocean wearing the clothing he intended on wearing all day, caring very little about the chaos in the moment, just for the sake of being impulsive. you truly never know where Taehyung is going to drag you off to, but you always pack way more clothing than you would ordinarily need, and expect several very lavish shopping sprees. everyone you meet gravitates to Taehyung and becomes his friend, and he winds up getting you into clubs and events that have very short guest lists.

Jungkook - although Jungkook has many interests, he is the type to follow your lead. whatever you want to do see, wherever you want to go, Jungkook is making reservations and looking up logistics to make it happen. he is very eager to get your insights and learn from the locals, and will suggest plenty of sightseeing and restaurants, but only once he is a little more familiar with his surroundings and has an idea of what the area has to offer. he is not a pushover, though; if he finds an event he wants to go to, he will speak his mind, and if there is something he's not into, he will let you know. but he is definitely along for the ride, for the most part, excited to see where you will lead him.

I'm gonna be rewatching and replaying this episode of the podcast a lot. Glenn and Charlie were on something and I haven't laughed this hard in ages!

Glenn providing sweet, sweet fan service to the creeps with those fuckin arms out. All the lads looked good today.

THEY KNOW WE LIKE GLENN'S BAND TSHIRTS!!!!

Glenn opening with a Take on t-shirt sleeve lengths

Sports talk! Which means we get to hear Rob beg Glenn to watch his shows and Glenn repeatedly blow him off and complain about sports

"What I don't enjoy is a one hour game taking four hours" - Glenn dragging American football (accurate)

"I'll hear you talk about a 4 hour play you were riveted by" - yes Rob, call! Glenn! out!

"Pounding someone and getting pounded by somebody." That's what gets Glenn off. No I will not provide context.

"IASIP is the 2nd place of tv shows" / "Ooh I think we're 15th place"

D&Bs did an advertisement flop when this episode aired?! Love the history lesson.

Apparently FX gets all the product placement money!

There's gonna be an episode on the current economic shitshow and inflation this season — called it!

Charlie and Glenn really went all out riffing with all the little voices they like to do and they have the best comedic chemistry!

Rob's mind voice to John Wayne and studio head impressions to surfer bros, and all hilarious as fuck

"John Wayne seems like a bit of a pussy" lmao

John Wayne the surfer bro shredding gnar reminded me of their Keanu from Point Break bit — funniest shit in ages

Shooting trash out of the sky should be in a Sunny episode

Aliens are jelly people

Rob's cat is called Moose? Jack Bauer was the original.

Thank you for the cat videos on the side.

Moose beat off a hawk's attack!

They looked good today so I filled up on screenshots.

[maddiebiscuits]

actually piggybacking off last RT i probably dressed more emo-punk or emo-goth in highschool and phased out by the time i graduated, basically if Ebony Darkness Dementia Raven Way wore it i wish i had it because her character was a time capsule of what that sort of look was - too done up and edgier than emo, too early for scene

my hair was a popular emo bang/back spikes though, sometimes with highlights. i had this awful choker from friggin Claire’s of all places that had an iron cross on it that i had no CLUE what it meant because i was 15 and after deeper history lessons on WW1/WW2 i threw it out asap and replaced it with a spiked choker LMAO

studded bracelets also very popular at that time, had tons, striped socks/stockings, black boots and converse, I had cute mary jane shoes with cat faces on them, many black hoodies and t-shirts, a few black skirts, one black lace corset, black skinny jeans but never owned any tripp pants. heavy eyeliner, never wore black lipstick though because i had thin white girl lips and i didn’t know how to overline so wearing lipstick drew attention to them :c

it was really fun to participate in a fashion fad as a kid ngl, feels very In The Moment upon reflection. i briefly experimented with rockabilly fashion after college when that got popular but then i gave up. when you turn 30 and you’re not skinny like you used to be and have to mind your finances you can’t really stick to a sense of style even if you’re thrifty because your size, time, money and basic comfort is against you, but i got to do it as a kid so i’m pretty happy! :D

[blimbo-buddy]

So tumblr won't let me answer the ask so I'm making a post about it, fuck this website. Ask from @imagination-confusion

I like the stuff with Barley farming, he has mastered agriculture. Little kitty in a big tractor

Imagine the history lessons that come with them becoming more and more tolerant of certain foods that they couldn't previously eat. "Yeah so we used to drop dead the moment any kind of citrus was consumed"

I'm imagining those people reacting in such a disgusted manner over the nasty fucking british foods that they eat over there. (I think you meant raw mouse/squirrels/fish but you still got your point across). I imagine the clan cats would say some shit like this

That's so fucking sweet holy shit, future bakers Storm and Feather? SilverStream would absolutely go bonkers the moment she lays her eyes on a delicious Mojarra Frita

Also imagining how excited SilverStream got when she heard about crayfish

Damn that's making me sad too. Kittypets showing future generations the photos left behind of their humans and tearfully telling them stories about their owners

On the other hand of course the Clans celebrate the occasion lmao. Everybody crying their eyes out meanwhile the Clans are all gathered at Four Trees popping bottles of cat champagne

[hannimati0ns]

Kit Cat Clock do you ever teach the other neighbours along with the children?

If so how does that usually go?

(I can just imagine the children behaving during a lesson meanwhile some of the puppets are roughhousing in the back of class lmao.

Fantastic ocs btw!)

Kit: I like to teach anyone! My students go from children to the elderly! I usually teach subjects like history, math, woodcraft, and all sort of things! Some students find the most interesting subjects boring tho... which is a shame, so I have to find ways to make them exciting! I know there are no "trouble" students, they're just misunderstood.

Thank you for the compliment!! 😭💕

[kalostie]

my collection of ghost/misc hcs and thoughts because the brainrot is consuming me. probably ooc but that's ok

he's lactose intolerant. like he'll eat multiple things with cheese and Yes he knows the consequences. does he care? yes. will he stop???? no

regardless he definitely has a thing for baking. he rarely gets the opportunity, but when he's on leave and resting at his little apartment he just has to bake a few cookies. there's a kind old lady a few doors down who greets him every time he comes back. probably bakes something sweet for her

zones out a lot. the 141 quickly learns to leave him be. he can easily clock back in but sometimes it's nice to just be in his own world

i feel like if soap or price needs his attention while he's zoned out, they have a few words that makes him perk up a little

Soap: [something something something] -aking *tea* a-

Ghost: [frog blinks] wh

he knows all the tea lore. if you give him time to open up he can probably give you a whole history lesson on tea. my little idea is that when he was little, his mom would make him some warm tea whenever she was able to. it's still one of his fondest memories

he isn't against coffee but it makes him sleepy sometimes

ghost doesn't have TOO many personal items but he loves his planners. it helps him keep track of everything around him and every year he looks forward to getting a new one (yes he puts a skull sticker on it. maybe even a soap one too)

this is a personal hc but he loves rats and cats. especially rats. they're just so tiny and he likes it when they do their tiny happy wiggles

he doesn't stop cleaning his precious knives until he can see his reflection in them. sharpens them frequently. he'll start cleaning them if he's trying to focus on something

being in 141 gave him a superpower aka "fuckin hell it's 2am why do i feel the need to yell at soap" and hearing pots and pans crashing downstairs

like he'll be thousands of miles from gaz and he gets a random tingly feeling. his eye twitches and he has to take a moment to exhale cause he just has this Gut Feeling gaz fell out of a helicopter again

i think the whole fandom can agree he snores so goddamn loud

i really want him to be allergic to something like honeydew or a veggie just so i can have my representation here LMAO

skeleton night slippers. that's all. maybe skeleton pjs too. soap probably bought them for him for shits n giggles but ghost uses them both frequently now

An Incomplete List of Kdramas Mu-yeol Makes Hatter Watch With Him

@davidhatter

He tries to avoid anything from like .... pre-2017 if he can help it bc HOLY misogyny and toxicity from these male leads Batman, but sometimes a show is either A. GOOD, B. iconic staples for the genre; or C. so awful he must subject him to it.

This list only has some of the good dramas lmao

Her Private Life

A cute romcom! He started him off with this one. It includes some classic kdrama tropes: memory loss of a specific traumatic event, childhood connection, rich man not rich woman, long-lost brothers. It's cringe and camp enough to be a good primer for K-dramas-- it's good, great even, but not so good that it ruins every drama after it. But it also does avoid a lot of the most annoying and cringe tropes, things that an avid drama watcher might eat up but not good for a first look into the genre. The leads, Park Min-young and Kim Jae-wook are two of Mu-yeol's favorite actors so it's worth it just for them. Also, it goes into fangirl culture and idol fandom which, fan culture IN Korea is it's own interesting subculture that he can use the drama to explain that aspect to him.

Vicky said Hatter's review of it was positive, he had a nice time, which means now Hatfish watch dramas together lmao. Mu-yeol explained that after HPL there were five plans of attack for first-time drama watchers he explains to Hatter:

A. you like the lead actor a lot, so you watch something else he's in (Crazy Love, Marry Me, Mary, or for a small role when he was younger Coffee Prince)

B. you like the lead actress and want to see her in something else (Healer, What's Wrong With Secretary Kim, Forecasting Love and Weather, Marry My Husband)

C. you liked the second male lead (Eun-gi's actor) and want to see a drama where he gets the girl (See You in My 19th Life)

D. "we go to Netflix or Viki and watch the first thing that I've seen before and liked" (Crash Course In Romance, Jealousy Incarnate, Flower of Evil, When The Camellia Blooms, It's Okay That's Love, Oh My Ghost, Twenty-five Twenty-one, Reply 1988)

E. "we go to Netflix or Viki and watch something I haven't vetted yet for cringe level"

Crash Course In Romance

A cute romcom about middle aged people falling in love! Also there's a serial killer subplot lol happens a lot, you and Hatter will get used to those in K-dramas. The female lead is a single mom! Well, tech aunt but that's HER CHILD she raised her!

Jeon Do-yeon is a cutie, amazing as the female lead and Jung Kyung-ho as Choi Chi-yeol is so pathetic (affectionate, highest praise.)

Reply 1988

This is one of Mu-yeol's favorite dramas! Anything set in the late 80s-early 2000s is so nostalgic for him. This is a great period piece for 80's South Korea. It also delves lightly into the political turmoil at the time which he'll happily pause to explain to Hatter in more detail. It's his favorite in the Reply series, even though he really enjoys Reply 1994 and Reply 1997 too, which he eventually makes Hatter watch but not all back to back.

The song that open's Reply 1988, To You by Shin Hae Chul is like one of the most iconic Korean songs. Your cat knows this song if you live in Korea lmao. It's so beloved that EXO, a current K-pop group (well 3rd gen but still active) performed it a few years ago and this massive audience of people who were not around in the 80's when it came out were screaming and singing along, so ofc Hatter had to listen to the whole song too lmao. Just getting a full Korean pop culture history lesson.

Prison Playbook

UGH Prison Playbook is so GOOD. It stars the male lead from Crash Course In Romance alongside Park Hae-soo, one of the leads from Squid Game. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry, it's about friendship! It's about family! UGH!!!!

Twenty-Five Twenty-One

Another one that is SO GOOD. This one deals with the 1997 IMF Crisis that rocked Southeast and East Asia. Mu-yeol has detailed memories of this time period and explains what that time was like as he observed it while they watch this. It's a drama with a bittersweet but realistic ending, it will rip your heart out it will make you laugh, it's everything.

Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha

Another romcom! This time with a proper happy ending! But not without ripping your heart out too :):):) Gongjin is giving Swynlake lmao Mu-yeol thinks Hatter will really like it.

Jealousy Incarnate

Now, this is MY favorite drama. I've watched it 6 times straight through. It's so good and the description doesn't do it justice! I love Gong Hyo-jin but find a lot of her characters frustrating and just not good characters despite her being a great actress. But this drama gives her an interesting character!

And the soundtrack? AMAZING.

Youth Of May

Another drama that takes place in the 80s! This one is centered around the Gwangju Uprising which happened the year before Mu-yeol was born. This one is really good for Mu-yeol pausing to explain history lmao but oh my god this drama is UGH I loved it, he loved it.

When The Camellia Blooms

Another Gong Hyojin vehicle! She's a single mom! Good drama for explaining several aspects of Korean culture, stigmas, norms, etc around single parents, orphans, the concept of your fate affecting people around you.

Welcome to Samdal-ri

I'm watching this one right now. I like it a lot!

It's Okay, That's Love

One of the only sympathetic portrayals of schizophrenia I've seen in media ever. EVER. And the soundtrack of this drama? One of the best.

Also D.O. from EXO is in it!

Love To Hate You

A good palatte cleanser after some heavier dramas. Not the silliest of silly romcomc but a romcom nonetheless. Also Kim Jihoon and Yoo Teo are hot!!!

This scene lmao

Money Heist: Korea

Based on the Spanish show, also slaps. Mu-yeol finally gives Hatter a Manly TM show to watch after making him watch romcoms. A dudebro show, as a treat. Except it's actually really good!!! and it's got hot middle-aged men (Kim Ji-hoon, Park Hae-soo) for them to look at!

Hell Is Other People

It's homoerotic, it's got Lee Dong-wook, it's got serial killers, it's got homoerotic serial killers, what more do you want?

Touch Your Heart

A cute romcom! Yay!!!

But honestly, Mu-yeol thinks Lee Dong-wook's chemistry is...kinda wack with women. His on-screen chemistry playing opposite other men like in Goblin, Bad & Crazy, and Tale of the Nine-Tailed and Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 is SO good, but to him (and me) it tends to fall flat with women.

He's cute here with Yoo In-na though!!! But in Tail of The Nine-Tailed his best scenes are with Kim Bum lmao

Summer Strike

It's just so good!!!

[bonefall]

How are we feeling at the book finale? Because outside of the Sunbeam girlboss moment telling Berryheart just how bad of a family she was AND maybe possibly foreshadowing her rejecting Nightheart, I think we miiiight get some more Dark Forest cats than planned before :D (also I may be wrong but- didn't Podlight have children? Would he even be eligible as Medicine Cat in BB?)

Podlight's totally eligible in BB! He has no canon children and I didn't give him any. In BB there's also an interesting quirk in that Podlight is notoriously Mistystar's... not EXACTLY a good-for-nothing grandson, but a bit of a "fratboy" working through daddy issues. Is is extra funny for this cat to be a villain lmao.

Also: Better Bones RiverClan Family Tree

Anyway... my thoughts on the spoiler thread's ending. Mostly negative, unfortunately. I am really hoping that a lot of this is misrepresentation.

I've enjoyed every book of ASC that's come out so far, but if this thread is accurate, this is going to be the first one that I actively dislike. It sounds like there was a serious nosedive in quality.

ON THE ENDING; Park Cats, and The Berryheart Gathering.

Park Cats.

It is profoundly frustrating to me that we had TWO traveling books in this arc. Do they not know by now that traveling books are widely detested for a reason??

Frostpaw and Nightheart were AWAY FROM THE CONFLICT for most of this book, what the fuck?

The plot barely advanced at all. There's been one major conflict in this entire arc, the invasion of RiverClan, and we are 4/6ths of the way through without any other major battles. This is boring.

Riverstar is a major character through this bullshit, now with a magical perfect connection to Frostpaw through plot convenience so he can give her tutorial tips, because GOD FORBID we have a more grounded story for once. I'm so sick of DOTC fanservice. Was a super edition not enough?!

And speaking of Riverstar's Home, they pretty clearly ripped a lot of inspiration out of it. Frostpaw and Nightheart go on a journey with random human-related shenanigans before finding a cardboard cutout of a culture

I'm not gonna lie guys. I do not like the Park Cats. I HAVE TO SAY; It's a step in the right direction

They are not demonized. They are treated as good and legitimate. They are seen as having wisdom and living peacefully.

This is Good. This is Fine.

(im still kind of mad they needed riverstar to come save them back in riverstar's home, like every non-clan culture does apparently, but HOKAY fine ok it's fine)

.....butt.

They're boring. guys, they have one thing that is unique to them, and it's meditation. They live in perfect peace and harmony. there's nothing there.

It's easy to be a perfect, peaceful society if you have no conflict ever.

IF THE SPOILER THREAD IS ACCURATE, we don't see them address strife, how they DO handle disputes, what DOES happen when a cat engages in "criminality," or even really see what their spiritual beliefs are besides "meditating"

And that's why the idea of Frostpaw taking away a good lesson from living with them strikes me as so hollow. WHAT is she taking from them? JUST vague, quiet meditation?? Why couldn't Riverstar just magically teach her that?

It also bothers me that this culture is exactly the same as it was in Riverstar's Home. It's in stasis. Nothing has changed, nothing has grown, they haven't picked up new customs. They don't even seem to have their own history besides remembering that Riverstar showed up generations ago.

It's not a culture, it's a plot device.

I swear, I'm really trying to like them, but RH left this really sour taste in my mouth and them showing up again in this book has only made me more frustrated.

I AM happy that we're going to maybe start trying to address the violence of Clan Culture, but it is coming in the middle of a book where nothing fucking happens, and they're starting to fumble the bag on the xenophobic radicalization that I'd been praising in the past few books

And by that, I'm referring to...

Berryheart's Gathering

through the books so far, I've been praising the slow rise of tension coming from the radicalized members of ShadowClan.

I think the way that Berryheart and her little Concern Club had been slowly escalating in their bigotry and violence was (and remains) unironically fantastic.

We had started off with it just being a group to "discuss the issues," which evolved into active bullying and harassment, progressed into attempted murder, and we left off on the idea that Berryheart's Hate Group was planning something with RiverClan's murder party.

And we are reaching a turning point in that arc, the payoff of a long and well-laid escalation, with...

normal democracy.

berryheart and her supporters approach puddleshine reasonably with their concerns and intent to call for a vote to depose tigerheartstar. doing the thing the fucking code addition was made for

This comes AFTER Sunbeam has a Girlboss Moment telling off Berryheart for being a bad mom in front of the whole gathering and everyone claps, mind you, so this is clearly supposed to be the narrative's big "oooo consequences for Berryheart" moment

So anyway Berryheart brings up that they want tigerHeartstar deposed, and then Puddleshine's like "haHA THIS WAS A ROUSE"

"Actually I only told you i agree to point out how this code addition can be exploited over a disagreement with ONE issue!!!!1"

i just...

im......

would Brokenstar training babies be One Issue? Would Bramblefake being a bully to his entire clan be One Issue? Would Leopardstar allowing Tigerstar to take over RiverClan be One Issue?

One Issue....

And MIND YOU I'm Pro-tigerHeartstar, actually, but the WHOLE fucking point of the rule is that you can depose someone who is not acting in the best interest of the Clans. Fym ONE ISSUE??

IT'S A BIG ASS ISSUE!

So anyway Berryheart is embarrassed in front of everyone, tigerHeartstar tells the group, "You're going to support me or get out of my Clan"

All of her supporters fall in line, but Berryheart chooses exile.

So Berryheart and her group isn't punished for the hate crimes, it didn't lead to anyone getting actually hurt, this faction of cats just settled back down and Berryheart alone was exiled for political opposition to occupation.

not the hate crimes

GOTTA STRESS

The hate crimes did not cause lasting damage, the radicalized group did not cause any violence at this gathering

Berryheart is exiled for political opposition to occupation.

The consequence she faces for the hate crimes was simply not having her son Spireclaw back her up because she caused trouble for Fringewhisker. Like it's on the same level as being a bad in-law and not ATTEMPTED MURDER BASED ON BIGOTRY

And tigerHeartstar, jesus christ

His consistent trait has been becoming unreasonable WHEN HIS FAMILY IS THREATENED. WHY are we tossing this out the window now?

I REALLY REALLY hope that the spoiler thread is misrepresentation, and tigerHeartstar didn't ACTUALLY exile her but said something like, "this is what we're doing. don't like it, leave. you don't have the votes"

SO FOR NOW; I'm going to reserve judgement on what the writers are doing with tigerHeartstar.

This seems like the exact sort of thing that may be worded in an inaccurate way

But that said,

I'm beside myself with disappointment in this turn of events. Why is this about legitimate political proceedings? Why did they make the CULMINATION of this arc about bigoted violence and radicalization a legitimate, peaceful attempt to use the process THEY JUST ADDED, FOR THIS EXACT PURPOSE?

Anyway, then it ends on a cliffhanger

Podlight claims to be the new medcat, pointed out as just being a political maneuver, to appoint Splashtail as the new leader.

Frostpaw watches on in shock and thinks about how bad it is that a murderer is now in charge of RiverClan, and how no one would believe her if she told them all now

I sure hope the next book contains something worth reading. like a fight or something. in the battle cat series. in the arc where theyre trying to say something about violence.

Bruh, I swear Kou's is my favorite lmao xDD.

Note regarding videos: Scenario inspiration comes from the videos linked. We own nothing. Credit goes to the original owners.

Shu:

When you first approached him with it, he was honestly confused.

He was sort of reluctant to do it due to him being lazy, but he figured he’d make you happy so he decided to try it.

He thought it was a joke.

And of course, he had to try it while laying down on the couch.

Didn’t start to feel pain until he got to level 5 and this is where he shot up.

“Fuck . . . .”

And by level 6, it was over. He was clutching his stomach and rolling up into a ball.

“Y/N, turn it off! I can’t do it!”

“But there’s still like four more levels.”

“I don’t care!”

And when this event reached Reiji’s ears, this gave him new ideas as to how to get Shu up to do things.

Reiji:

“What is this contraption?” He’d say when you first showed him it.

He thought it was silly and didn’t believe it could cause severe pain, so he decided to give it a go.

And plus, he wanted to see how far science has come and wanted to fully understand what you were complaining about every month.

So, after putting it on him, you cranked up to level 4 and he flinched, making him hit his hip against the table—kinda like this guy (@ 2:16 if the video doesn’t work).

And at one point, this machine put this bitch on his knees.

Like, it took him out.

He was dying by level 6, crawling up next to your legs like a cat and begged you to turn it off.

And if his brothers are around, they encourage you to crank up the pain, while Reiji does his best to convince you otherwise.

Laito:

Started screaming hysterically at level 3.

You honestly can’t tell if he’s laughing or dying from the way it sounds. It’s probably both knowing him.

He’s begging you to stop the pain because he simply can’t take it.

He’s twisting in so many ways because he feels so much pain and he is complaining non stop.

“Bitch-chan, please. I’ll do anything! Make it stop!”

“Alright, but on one condition.”

“Anything!”

“No fedora for a week.”

“No, not my hat!”

“Alright then, I guess I’ll just have to crank it up.”

“Nooo!”

Afterwards, when he no longer has the machine to bother him, he just stayed there laying on the floor because he became so sore.

He was never the same afterwards and learned to never mess with you when on your period.

Well sounds like someone learned their lesson.

Kanato:

He couldn’t quite understand what it was at first, but when you explained it, he thought it was stupid.

Since vampires can take on more pain compared to a human, he thought he was invincible to it.

“Do you really think that something like this can take down someone like me? Fine, I’ll play along.”

He started screaming at level 2 and begging you to turn it off as he rolled onto the floor curled up into a ball.

And was actually in tears.

Oh, poor little purple leprechaun.

“Can’t you see you’re hurting me? How could you do this to me? In front of Teddy?”

In the end, he got fed up with it and tore it off and slightly electrocuted himself.

Ayato:

He was confident, he thought he had it in the bag.

“Ah, please. I can take this shit on no problem.”

At level 3.5, he started to groan a little bit.

And when he got to level 5, he was definitely feeling it, but was trying to play it off. Kinda like this guy here (@ 1:05 if the video doesn’t work).

“Damn,” he’d say clutching his stomach.

Begged you to unplug it at some point cuz he just couldn't take it . . . and he was still at level 5.

Subaru:

At first, he thought it was stupid and that it wasn’t a big deal.

But boy was he wrong.

Started complaining at level 4.

“Damn . . .”

But it got even worse when you cranked it up to level 7.

There he was dying.

And it was honestly so bad that he tried chasing you in order to snatch the remote to turn it off, but he ended up throwing himself on the table because the pain was unbearable, kinda like this guy (@ 2:40 if the video doesn’t work).

He was literally begging you to turn it off like the guy in the vid. xDD

“Subaru, the table! Reiji’s gonna get mad!”

“Turn it off!” He groaned. “Oh my god!”

Kino:

Thought it was a joke, but figured he’d try it because you wanted him to.

“C’mon, it’s just a little machine. What can it do?”

And boy was he wrong.

The first few levels he was fine, but then it started to get real around level 5.

But he wasn’t going to call it there because he wanted to prove he could endure much more.

So he keeps encouraging you to crank up the pain.

“But you’re already at level 7!”

“Babe, I got this. C’mon!”

And at this point, he began making the weirdest noises to cope with the pain. Kinda like this dude (@ 5:44 if the video doesn’t work).

And level 9 was the end for him and resulted with him on the floor, literally gasping for some type of relief.

After that, you crouched down and scooped him up into a hug from all the pain he just endured and he stayed cuddled up like a baby.

Aww :’)

Ruki:

He was actually supportive of the idea.

He knew girls had a tough with periods in general, but he never thought it’d be this bad.

He’s generally a very composed person, but to see him get this vulnerable was something else.

You skipped the easy and just blasted it up to level 8, and it was taking him out, kinda like this guy (@ 7:29 if the video doesn’t work).

He was complaining in ways you’d never seen him, like he was at your mercy.

“Shit . . . how do women do this every month? This is horrible.”

“Oh baby, this is just cramps, you’re missing all the headaches, mood swings, the knife feeling in your uterus, weakness-,”

“Okay, okay, I get it.” He’d beg, being breathless. “Just turn it off.”

Yuma:

He thought it was weird but he figured he’d try it anyways.

“I mean, I don’t think it’s gonna hurt me that much.” He’d say.

But it wasn’t like that when he got to level 3. He literally had this guy’s reaction (@ 7:02 if the video doesn’t work).

And from there, you just kept increasing the level, and through each one, it just kept getting worse.

His body tensing up more and more though each level.

And when he hit level 8, it was game over.

In fact, the pain got so bad that at one point it actually made him scream.

It startled everyone in the mansion to be honest, and when his brothers came in they started laughing.

“You’re such a wimp, Yuma.” Kou would mock, finding this funny. “Didn’t know a simulator could take you out like that.”

“Why you!” Yuma would say, getting up with the simulator still attached to go chase Kou, ignoring the pain while you chased after them.

Kou:

Has been wanting to try this with you for the longest time and was more than open to it.

“Are you sure about this, Kou? Periods are not exactly pleasant.” You’d warn.

“Aw, don’t worry about it, kitten. I’m sure I can handle it.”

He started screaming at level 1 kinda like this dude (@ 6:50 if the video doesn’t work). Wimp.

He was in so much pain at such a quick rate. It was honestly unbelievable.

“Y/N, turn it off!”

“But we’re only at level one.”

He looked at you dumbfounded and just couldn’t believe it.

Azusa:

He didn’t know what it was at first, but figured he’d try it because you wanted him to.

Azusa knew how painful your period was every month, but never fully understood painful it actually was.

You explained what the simulator was for and he grew pretty interested.

“I get to . . . feel pain?”

“No, Azusa, it’s not like that. I just want to show you what girls go through every month.”

“Ok . . . .”

During the first levels, he was slightly laughing and giggling because he thought the pain was nothing.

But then it got serious.

And because he’s a masochist, he keeps telling you to increase the intensity of the pain even though you don’t want to.

“Azusa, no more. You’re already at level 15!”

“More . . . pain . . . .”

“Nooo!”

It honestly wouldn’t unless one of his brothers came in and stopped, and luckily one did before the machine would short-circuit.

Shin & Carla:

Now, there’s a reason why they’re grouped together here.

It’s because they actually did it together with their girlfriends (like the guys in the vid coming up).

At first they thought it was silly because they’re Founders, what pain couldn’t they take?

Or so they thought.

They were at level five and Carla lost composure first, kinda like the guy in the white pants here (@ 8:14 if the video doesn’t work).

And as King of the Founders, you can imagine how funny this looks on Carla right now xDD.

And to Carla’s surprise, Shin could take more pain than him but he was also dying.

Shin eventually got to level 10, but that’s when he couldn’t take it and ripped the simulator off.

Carla hit his limit at level 10 as well, but ended up fainting as a result.

It literally took hours to get him to wake up.

And now, Shin won’t let Carla live down the fact that a period simulator took the king out.

Bonus~

Karl:

Okay, to your surprise, he was actually remaining composed and pretty unmoved.

And as you cranked up the levels, you kept asking him what it felt like and he just kept telling you it was nothing.

Like at one point, the dude was on level 10 and felt little to no pain, kinda like this dude (@ 7:04 if the video doesn’t work).

And like the guy in the vid, he asked if there were any more levels and when you said no, he was just shocked that that was the limit. Damn Karl.

It literally was a piece of cake to him xDD.

[pandas-pandemonium]

Your sentient Twst and my discord got me thinking... what if MC was talking with friends while playing the game. Laughing and joking. Then one friend asks who their very first fictional crush was and current fictional crush is! How would they react to MC saying one of them or none of the NRC boys at all (like chenya, or one of the Mobs, or a character from another game/story)! My apologies if this is long😭

A/N: I'm going to go with both a.k.a MC says her first fictional crush is someone from another game (*cough* Obey Me crossover *cough*) and current one being one of the NRC mobs (Chenya). The characters I chose were completely random and was up to who I felt like writing.

(may or may not have butchered Chenya's name...I can't remember which is his surname lmao)

Yandere! Sentient! Twst x GN! Reader - MC is asked who her first and current fictional crushes are

Characters featured: Ace, Deuce, Riddle, Lilia, Trey and Vil

"So Y/N, who was your first fictional crush?"

It was a harmless question thrown out by one of your friends while you were all gathered around playing your own respective games. You were doing your weekly objectives in Twisted Wonderland while your friends were playing other games. While you were all doing so, the whole group somehow started talking about fictional crushes.

"First fictional crush? You mean like a childhood anime character or something?" you asked.

"Well, you can tell us that too...but since we're all on the topic of games, why not tell us your first game character crush?" they asked, a large grin on their face.

You pondered for a while as you glanced back down to your game.

Strange...why did it look like [Current Home Screen Character] was also listening intently? You shook that odd feeling off quickly though, as you answered your friend's question.

"Hm...I would say it has to be Mammon from Obey Me," you said. Your friends immediately began laughing.

"Seriously? That recent?" one of them asked.

"Yeah... what's wrong with picking someone from a recent game?" you asked, frowning.

"tsk".

You paused. For a second there you thought you heard an angry click of a tongue from your game. When you looked down however, nothing was happening.

Shrugging, you quickly clicked on a Magic History lesson to run on auto while you chatted with your friends. You'll take a closer look at the game later. For all you know, it could have been your imagination. In order for the game audio to not disturb your conversation as well, you muted it, not realising the freedom this gave the characters as they "sat through" the History lesson.

~~~~~~

"Can you believe it? Their first fictional crush is some dude from some other game!" Ace complained.

"I know... it's kinda disappointing," Deuce replied, looking quite forlorn.

"Quiet, you two!" Riddle scolded. "I'll talk with Cater and Trey later about this. We'll have to find out if that other game is also in the same situation as ours..."

"Don't be so worried! Our player only responded to a question about their first love. Perhaps their heart lies in a different place now, fufufu," Lilia said, a fanged grin on his face.

As if Lilia predicted the following question, you were soon asked who your current favourite character was. But by then the History lesson was over and you had picked a different group of characters.

Oh well, they'll just have to ask the next group later.

~~~~~~

"Your lesson's over, Y/N," one of your friends notified you. You looked down and sure enough the 'End' screen was displayed, to which you quickly closed it and randomly selected a character pair for Alchemy.

"Anyways, back to you again [Nickname]. Who do you like now?"

Oh, that was an easy one.

"Chenya!" you said happily.

"Chenya?" one of your friends repeated.

"Yeah, he's one of the supporting characters of the Twisted Wonderland cast. I'm really hoping he gets a card one day!" you said.

~~~~~~

Trey nearly dropped his ladle in the cauldron (even if it wasn't possible). You like that cat?! How? He's only appeared a total of less than five times in the game! His eyes looked towards to Vil, who he noticed was frowning.

"Hey Vil?" he asked.

"Yes, Clover?" the man replied. "If you are going to ask me what I think about the potato's answer, I can only say that the potato's choice is not definite. Alchemivich has little game time, sooner or later, one of us will capture their heart."

Trey laughed to himself. Vil had a point; Chenya didn't even have a card in the game. The only way you could give attention to him is indirectly or if you played through all his chapters in-game all over again, which would be incredibly tedious.

Maybe he didn't have to worry after all. He couldn't say the same for the others, however. Trey was sure the moment he relayed this information, the first years would throw a fit.

~~~~~

And so, your conversations soon changed topics as you all became distracted and put down your phones though once in a while one of you would pick your phone up to show a funny meme or to look up a video. Aside from that, the weird glitches that first bugged you went forgotten. You were sure it was just your imagination anyways.

[power-of-plot]

Iida, Mirio, and Aizawa dating hcs please

Of course! But holy cow apparently this seriously inspired me, i hope this is ok xd

I I D A

Oh yes robot boi. Iida is someone nerdy in every aspect, his language even with close friends like Midoriya is very formal and polite, the same rule would apply when it comes to his significant other. Unlike what some would think, this doesn’t give your conversations a cold touch, on the contrary, it’d make him look chivalrous.

He’s a classic gentleman, he’d be the kind who opens the door and waits for you to walk in first or gives you his jacket when it’s too cold and you don’t have anything to cover yourself with, the second one would happen often in the classroom if you’re sensitive to cold. We are talking about U.A have you seen the measures of the classrooms and the entire area? It’s impossible they don’t have those huge air conditioners.

He highly respects the rules wich means, no PDA, on a certain level, no kisses to be specific. That doesn’t mean he won’t give you any affection, though every gear of his robotic soul is having a bad time working properly inside, he’d hold your hand or put his over your shoulder pulling you close when you’re sitting together. 

He definitely would do that thing of caressing you with his thumb. As you expected it from Tenya, this is a sort of robotic motion, his finger would move like a metronome but that doesn’t make it any less nicer, he is slow and gentle.

Honestly, he’d be nervous most of the time. ALSO! Tenya is very thoughtful, he’d ask (often verbally) if you’re okay with whatever he’d do, as times goes by the questions turn non verbal, for example he’d hold his hand above yours waiting for you to give green light or grasp it. 

“..Can i hold your hand?” “Sure!” “*DEEP INHALE AND BLUSH*” He couldn’t help to blush the first times. Specially on the firsT kiss but how would it be? A clasic scenenario after classes! And after you both have grown comfortable enough to each other’s touch. Seriously, if you like to go slow he's got you.

You two would be walking around in the campus after classes and he feels the tension grow.. he is analyzing every detail, he wants to ask but what if things get extremely awkward, he’s very tall- he’d have to bend down slightly (unless you’re nearly as tall as him) to do it so what if you flinch because it was unexpected.. he stops walking, he simply manages to say your name. You stared into each other's eye and then it happened, a big smile unexplainably forms in his lips complemented by a scarlet color across his whole face, his haircut made his head look like a strawberry.

There are going to be days you don't see him as much as you'd like, Tenya is very comitted to his hero patrols, he certainly would do extra hours from time to time or if the situation called for it. Let him know you like his hero suit! He’s thankful it has a helmet otherwise his flustered face would be exposed. 

Whatever position you cuddle in Iida would wrap his arms around you, not only that, he’d interlock his fingers so he has a nice grip. His cuddles would be the classic spooning or having your head on his shoulder with your arm over his chest and in case you worry about his arm, this guy doesn’t know limb numbness- he literally tenses and holds his arms up every five minutes.

He sends good morning/good night texts often on the weekends since you're practically living together thanks to the dormitory system, they vary depending on the day, some are a reminder to get a proper amount of sleep or! To get done with homework so you can enjoy your free time and maybe ask if he can go over to study *cough spend time together*

He'd send the classic heart emoji, very detailed but easy to comprehend videos explaining any difficult lesson and history related stuff like paint restorations or facts about iconic sculptures. Please don’t send him those videos of people accidentally breaking things on museums, he’s gonna feel like something breaks inside.

M I R I O

This ray of sunshine fell for you? Your luck is so big you’d get jackpot on a slot machine on the first try-. You’re undeniably going to be good friends with Tamaki and Nejire, specially her, expect to get questions one after another without the chance to reply when she finds out you’re Mirio’s significant other, Tamaki would take it way better.

Mirio’s goofyness and confidence combined with his feelings give a unique result: he literally spoke to the boss of mafia himself twice like he was the manager in a store, but, the case is different when you’re around, he’s saying and actually good joke and suddenly.. it goes away, his mind goes blank. “So what happened after Mirio..?” “Ah.. i had practiced a lot, i don’t know what happened haha my bad!”

You’re going to get tons of his jokes and something more “intense” such as the classic “What’s in your shirt?” to make you look down so he can boop your nose with his finger, you should expect some gentle headpats as well. 

If you’re shy he’s cool about it, he knows what do and adaptates to your pace, you’d start off with hand holding or rather pinky holding, he’d interwine his pinky with yours and show a bright smile. His hugs are the warmest, he doesn’t do it half-assesly, when you hug, YOU HUG, he uses both arms and slightly lifts you up! Height or strength are not a problem he’s actually one cm taller than Iida i just found out

He seems like the kind who loses their pen or eraser despite seeing it on their desk just one minute ago, if you happen to be that kind as well you’re both going to lay down your faith on poor Tamaki’s hands, i’m sure he has all his material complete.

He hardly ever gets nervous or scared by anything, things like the first kiss would go pretty smooth, instead of blushing intensely he’d just chuckle with slight disbelief, his mind is racing like “I just did that? woah!”. The biggest trouble for him would be gifts, he wants it to be perfect but asking Nejire for advice is not a good idea, roses are too formal and they don’t last long, going to the movies seems a little cliche.. his first gift would end up being a plushie of your favorite animal and a bamboo.

He’d sneak a kiss or two, specially before the class is begginning a training session, he’d send you a text telling you to go outside the changing rooms and oop! He phases through the wall poking out his head to give you a kiss kiss. If you don’t mind a prank from time to time he’d give a little scare using his quirk.

This guy is the big spoon during cuddles, no arguing! He could switch but as time goes by he’d slowly shift into the big spoon, that’s just the way he is, the most usual position would be where you’re facing each other with your limbs wrapping around the other’s body. Waking up with him would be adorable and attractive, morning and night are the only times of the day when his hair isn’t gelled into his All Might-like hairstyle, those blonde locks would frame his face, a heavenly sight.

Would send you a pic of stray animals he rescued with a “:D!” and Sir. Nighteye 'torturing' Bubble girl (half of his head visibly on a corner of the image). If you longed for a pet badly he would bring a nice dog/cat he finds around! In his hero suit to make the moment more special. 

He uses the smiling emojis and emoticons! And shares videos of animals he finds adorable, if you sent him fails videos he'd laugh as long as the falls don't seem extreme or too severe, small trips on the beach or slips on the snow are fine. Mirio sends gifs i just know.

A I Z A W A

Have you taken a look at him? You must be a big The Walking Dead fan to like him lmao. Aizawa gives me an unexplainable gut feeling that he'd prefer a civilian (perhaps quirkless?) significant other over a hero, he wouldn't want his partner to go into the same dangerous situations he does.

His affection is tired, let me explain, he'd hug you and all that physical stuff but it'd kinda feel like his arms fall limply around you, still, even with his minuscule clingyness he loves you with all his might! He doesn't fall for anyone.

Not very fond of PDA, in public he'd preferr temple/forehead kisses and having your hand on the crook of his arm instead of hand holding (thinking about it Iida would do that too), seems more discret and! you don't let go when his hands are busy. He'd initiates it by gently resting your hand on his arm and sinking his hand into his pocket.

Surprise! He does smile, not that maniactic-looking grin he has sometimes during his shifts at U.A when a student impresses him, this one is less wide but somehow more tender and sweet, he tilts his head and for once his eyes seem relaxed, a relationship would make his cheeks hurt.. either for he's not used to smile so much or he smiles more than he thought he would.

If you give him a cat.. that's a strong blow straight to one of his weakest spots, he'd stare both at you and the kitten with a dumbfounded look before picking it up in his arm like a baby, his hand gravitates towards his it's head giving some nice pets before he shows a rare and somewhat bright smile "Thank you very much." Next time have a camera ready damnit! That smile rarely shows up.

He's practical, he wants his gifts to be nice but useful as well. He’d get you those mugs with candies inside, you get the candy and you can use the mug later for your coffee or tea; a power bank with a nice color or design and in case he choses something smaller: a bamboo, those one don’t wither away. Aizawa is fine with whatever you get for him, big or small he appreciates it. Sweaters, scarfs and blankets would be his favorite thing to get though, he likes to stay warm while working late at night

He’s sneaky, as an underground hero he’s used to work at times when the streets look disolated and the dark crime has more freedom to do as it pleases, he wouldn’t want to wake you up unless you asked him to. He’d leave a note on is pillow with the time he wrote it at and a short loving phrase like “i love you, i’ll be back soon, good morning”, before he leaves he’d always lift the sheet up to your neck or drag it away if you seem to be kicking it off you and give you a small kiss.

You’d find him passed out in his sleeping bag with his laptop besides him at random spots of his appartment, if it wasn’t because of the unatura position he adopts to fit in his sleeping bag he’d give you a death scare ‘cause let’s be honest he doesn’t look one hundred percent alive even when he’s awake. “Shota..? Shota can you hear me?!” “I’m not dead.”

Hibrid of big-small spoon. Most of the times you cuddle he’s asleep and you go snuggle him, his hair is a mess so better prepare to get tickled all night. He pull you close the best way he can when you’re behind him, not very comfortable for his arm but it’s worth it. He’d have you like a pillow over him, his chin over your head and both arms around you.

This man doesn’t bother typing when he can use his voice, the only situations he uses regular text messages are when he’s on shift or with you sleeping next to him. Send him gifs of kittens and a ‘i love you’ it instanstly gives him a good mood! He’d send pics of cats he sees around and gifts he bought you, doesn’t use emojis.

*COLLAPSES ON THE GROUND* Big oof- requests are open.
