how much does sasaki talk about hirano?

hey everyone. I’m coming to you live with an INVESTIGATIVE REPORT about the one and only sasaki shuumei. the question above pretty much summarizes what I'm trying to find out. so I’ll expand on this under the cut. apologies in advance for any typos

—

there’s a scene that’s always made me confused ever since I first read it (which wow. I’ve been reading this manga as it updates since partly through volume 3��� crazy how far its come!) and that is this sequence of two pages in the extras of Vol 7 (39.5), below:

hirano’s like “well, it’s fine to talk about me to miyano as long as you didn’t say any weird stuff about me” and sasaki goes. Silent. Now I at the time assumed like. ah sasaki’s talking about the hirano and kagiura relationshipisms. or the whole uke thing. right?

…right?

see, the thing is: when sasaki visits campus in ch 46, he asks the basketball team about a kagi-kun, and then when miyano questions him about what he was doing, he’s like “oh I just remembered hirano’s old roommate was on the basketball team,” and then refuses to even tell miyano his name. so it’s like… did sasaki EVER talk about hirano’s roommate to Miyano? like of his own initiative? did he offer any information? so I decided that instead of just bringing that question up, I’d reread all of sasaki to miyano and get my answer.

disclaimer that this deals with exclusively the manga: I have this hidden fear that I’m going to post this and get a reply like “oh this is 50% of the entire novel content” but! the scene in question comes up in the manga! I think it ought to then refer to an event in the manga! but seriously if stuff like that does come up in the novel feel free to chime in. also bc I was rereading the whole manga I have Other Thoughts Too but. those can hopefully marinate their way into other posts.

ch 2:

miyano: But I saw you! I saw you laughing as you chatted with a first-year boy from class 1A in the basketball club with a lovely smile!

this does not count. miyano brings this up to hirano himself. in fact a lot of miyano putting hirano into bl contexts happens In Front Of Hirano’s Face. not really a conversation starter for sasaki. it does make ch 46 way more interesting bc it means like. sasaki has remembered that kagiura’s on the basketball team to the point that he wants to check in on him? whereas miyano like Knows this info yet never really pursues it. suppose it’d be awkward to just go up and try to find him without knowing his name, though.

ch 4:

sasaki says “but hirano can handle alcohol fine” which is perfectly on topic since they were just discussing how sasaki can’t handle it. it’s miyano that spins into bl fantasies afterwards. also hirano is right there in this situation. does not count.

ch 5:

sasaki: Hirano’s playing Oiwa-san for the haunted house. Want to see? He’s crossdressing and wearing a wig.

this does count. sasaki is bringing up hirano and telling miyano something that miyano would totally get excited about. it is, I would say, not brought up out of nowhere, since they discuss crossdressing right before. unrelated to this I would love to see the image of sasaki as hanako-san of the toilet.

ch 6:

sasaki asks about miyano’s love life and when miyano says that he’s not romantically interested in anyone around here, and sasaki asks “what about hirano?” miyano says he ships him with his roommate and the conversation ends there. I would say this also does not count—yeah, he’s perhaps bringing up hirano as a romantic prospect, but I think this is more sasaki like. being jealous more than it is using him as a reason to talk to miyano. he’s like. a pretty jealous guy.

ch 8:

sasaki tells miyano that his grades suck and hirano’s been tutoring him. this does not count.

ch 11:

sasaki says “don’t you prefer black-haired ukes?” and “ah, you mean like hirano?” when miyano says he prefers manly ukes. this does count. while it’s in the topic of conversation, there’s not a real reason he has to bring hirano up. plus, he even continues it with “hirano’s pretty tall. can he still not be a seme?” so it’s using hirano to keep a conversation going with miyano, but I will note it’s not what starts the conversation.

ch 13:

sasaki talks about hirano getting banned from doing the ball toss. this does not count.

ch 24.5:

“ooh, if it was hirano, it would be taiko” says sasaki when miyano brings up all the girl names that he and his classmates would have. this does not count. it’s a natural extension of the various female names they’ve been talking about, sasaki included, and hirano’s their mutual friend.

ch 33:

sasaki brings up hirano’s dedication to studying and how he says that getting accepted to university isn’t the finish line. says hirano’s pretty cool for that mindset. this does not count.

ch 41:

sasaki says "haha, yikes! hirano was a terrible influence!" when miyano tells him about kuresawa getting a piercing. this does not count. it’s also after graduation, where the scene happened.

ch 42.5:

sasaki is like wow I can't believe hirano's roommate does THAT in the mornings to miyano, regarding vol 2 of sasaki to miyano. however this kind of thing isn't quite canonical since they know there are books being published about them so. this does not count.

halloween 2018 extra:

miyano asks if sasaki's friends got their items confiscated, and sasaki replies by saying that hirano's in charge of confiscation for their class, so their class had the idea to overwhelm him. this does not count.

dvd extra 4:

sasaki tells miyano about how they ripped the wallpaper on accident, and once he said it kind of gave it a badboy feel, they started doing it on purpose. hirano participated in it too. this does not count.

I’ve probably missed some, but we can see that out of all of these situations, only TWO are actually what I’d qualify as “weird” by hirano’s metrics. unless sasaki talking about the wild stuff Hirano gets up to includes his ball toss strategy and him ripping up wallpaper. then it’s four. my point is that sasaki says it’s “a lot” when it’s not. so… why is that?

I’ve been mulling over a couple of ideas regarding this, but I kind of don’t want to offer up my own interpretations first? plus when I tried writing my answer I spun off into a really bad tangent, so… post ends here. hope we all learned something here!

I have a question of the upmost importance after reading your radiostatic fics: IS our pathetic little Vox ever gonna get Al in a miniskirt after all? 😂 or just kinda suffer with the idea that it’ll never happen idk which is funnier

HAHA, everyone is so invested in this, I love you guys.

I actually thought it would be really funny if it was a running gag that literally never happened, and this was in fact my original intention because I didn't really think that Alastor would be even remotely interested in it, but... then I had a really cute idea that tied in with an interlude I've already been trying to figure out how to write, and it meshed well with the realization that it might be even funnier if it happened but was aggressively a "be careful what you wish for" situation for Vox.

Anyway, that's my vague way of saying that it's going to happen, haha.

they are 100% planning to transfer gatsby to bway if that makes u feel better

PROMISE?

i don't like... look up shows anymore so i don't see anything and since they have Zero social media presence i just didn't know. i especially didn't know since there's already a gatsby on broadway and i wasn't sure if they were willing to risk that yet given i have no idea how that show is doing. but god i hope so!! i will see it again. i'll move to nyc for a month and see it daily. this is dramatic. i'm also not sure if i'm kidding.

I've half a mind to track down and join some avatrice discord just so I can tell them that aikido has no striking techniques of its own, it's often painfully dull to watch, and 95% of all 'throws' are just the initial attacker flipping themselves to neutralize a debilitating jointlock.

tw maybe? dark psychology thoughts. careful if you're in a bad mental space.

i think it's a disservice when people treat selfish and selfless as two opposites of each other.

nothing is ever truly selfless. i think part of a selfless person should be the motivations behind their behavior. you can care about others and put them before yourselves and still have your own motivations for what you're doing for them. that's part of being human. it's impossible not to have your own reasons for doing something unless you yourself are a mindless machine. it causes kind and giving characters to come off as shallow when they're reduced merely to a giver, or people overcorrect by trying to force generic "badness" onto a character. what are the motivations behind their giving? those motivations don't necessarily retract from their nature. you can be genuinely kind yet have motivations behind it.

also, you can be selfless and still do things for yourself, even things that hurt others. that does not make you selfish. selfishness is a streak of caring about yourself regardless of how it may affect others.

selflessness is seen as purely a virtue, but it can also be genuinely selfish, like for example, it's easier to do what someone wants from you than to assert yourselves against them. it might seem kind on the surface, but it's really all about you not wanting to deal with conflict.

Random late night confessions wooo-

When HTTYD 2 had came out in theaters me and my siblings went to go see it and I had ended up crying in the theater. To the point where my siblings gave me weird looks.

I think y'all know why I ended up crying.

ngl i sorta like cherryfall as like this bratty stuck up asshole? maybe not as an old conservative karen or whatever theyre trying to make her in thunder (based in secondhand info, gotta stress that rq) but like, she’s like a mini version of her dad

in yuriverse her parentage has kinda gone back and forth whether or not shes a berrypoppy kid like canon or a berryhoney kid (divorced) but i kinda wanna age her up so shes an apprentice at the same time as dove and ivy. and shes completely tone deaf to what they’re going through lmaooo shes like “did you know my dad was the leader’s apprentice so you have to listen to me :)))” while ivypaw is literally going through hell

Whats the most embarrassing thing thats ever happened to you

Like noel

Noel from Deltarune? (That's the first person I think of with that name, lol.)

Most embarrassing thing... I can think of a lot of silly little moments of embarrassment, like burping or farting in public, or forgetting the name of a family friend I've met many times, or feeling so stressed or emotional I ugly cry in front of people I'm not used to being vulnerable around... but I can't really think of the most embarrassing thing ever, something that that stands above the rest and still sticks to me to this day. :P I think because I just try to forget about them after they happen.

  Tomgreg week 2023 day 1: first kiss

There are several things that coexist in Greg’s universe right now:

Greg can’t go to prison.

 It just can’t happen. Greg, bullied all through grade school and beaten up in the back parking lot several times Hirsch cannot go to jail. Greg is bad with people and worse with conflict. He’s going to get snapped in half on day one.

Greg really shouldn’t ask Tom to go to prison for him.

 Because Tom will do it. Because at basically every turn whenever Greg has asked Tom for something he’s gotten it, over and over, even when he doesn’t need it or deserve it. No one has enabled Greg’s whining as much as Tom has. Tom is there when no one else is, Tom is always there, over and over, Tom is there beside Greg.

Tom is probably the most reliable and important person in Greg’s life currently.

 Greg needs Tom around. He needs Tom for his job, for support, and for genuine human connection because Jesus Greg hasn’t made a single friend in New York City. Besides Willa, anyway, she doesn’t count because she’s too cool for Greg and can only hang out once in a while when she’s not doing something extravagant or important.

Greg can’t let Tom or anyone else know how attached he’s gotten, because caring for people the way he cares for Tom is like standing in the middle of the road yelling ‘hit me hit me!’

oh yeah uh i forgot to talk about my day. i havent rly been existing as a person whoops. uh
