Okay, the mp100 fandom (and other fandom spaces as well) makes me really hopeful✨

The internet is mostly a cruel and terrible place. It largely exists as an instrument of global capitalism. Governments use social media to push propaganda that either reinforces their fascist, conservative ideals or instills leftists that want to fight back with a sense of hopelessness that paralyzes and scares them. And we’re also getting to a point where much of the content we see online is not only made by AI, but interacted with by AI as well. We’re seeing “art” and ragebait stories that aren’t even made by real humans, but are spread online as if they’re true. Transactions are everywhere, but because everything is a subscription service, we own nothing. Corporations are putting advertisements on even the most sacred corner of the web & encouraging people to constantly consume, to BE consumed with the desire to consume more things, and to fill up the little time we have left with constant, buzzing productivity—because the internet is an instrument of capitalism, and capitalism is about constant expansion, expansion that won’t stop until everything in our lives is quantifiable and our whole being is stretched thin in service of a pointless, unstoppable economic growth.

In the face of that, I think your mp100 art is amazing. I think your fic is amazing. I am glad you decided to share it with us. I am glad you took the time to analyze Mob or Serizawa or Tome. To post screen grabs of Dimple or gifs or animatics or anything else. I’m glad you reblogged my post and added some silly or thoughtful little hashtags. I’m glad you DM’d me or posted a long ramble about Ritsu or Teru or reigen.

People don’t have to do these things. They don’t have to sketch characters or share headcanons or write fic or make watch parties on cute little discord servers. But they do. They do it because it’s a fun thing to do & because they’re talented and passionate. And it makes me happy that on the internet—which is increasingly being used to alienate and control us—still hosts real communities and real people making real art and writing their real thoughts without any kind of profit motive or manipulative agenda. People are literally just posting because they want to share their work and connect with others. It reminds me that no matter what capitalism does, we live in a fundamentally social world & we’re constantly trying to connect with each other about the things we like. MP100 is the thing I like and the people here make me hopeful. I see people post their art/writing/headcanons and I get super happy. I get inspired. I look at people’s bios and all the different countries they’re from and get really happy that the internet can be used as a tool to connect people across the world with the same interest together.

Choosing to create and make friends and be nice and spread positivity over the internet is a uniquely powerful thing. It may not seem like much, (and being on the internet is often framed as “wasting time”) but the Internet is important and the things you do here are actually tangible and real. Making and sharing art—making friends—sharing writing and blurbs and headcanons is a legitimate pushback against the terrible capitalistic machine that the internet has become. I’ve heard a lot of creators say that their art doesn’t get noticed/doesn’t matter because it doesn’t get a lot of attention. But it DOES matter. Because, for every second that someone spends seeing your art, that’s one second that they don’t spend on government propaganda or brain-numbing advertisements or ragebait or AI generated “content”. And even if no one sees your art, YOU spent time making it. You loved it and cared for it and valued it in a way that capitalism can never profit from or understand.

I hope you know that I see your art & love it. I look at it when I’m sad. My gf and I look at mp100 art while we sit outside and feel the world leave our bones. Maybe this is too much, but I’m feeling earnest and joyful tonight & am trying to lean into those feelings.

I’m just thankful. You create and share just because you wanted to create and share. You’re making the world a better place.

[Serizawa centric] The Humanity of S&S - Chapter 6

Read it on AO3

Chapter: 6/6 (FIN!)

Fandom: モブサイコ100 | Mob Psycho 100 Rating: General Audiences

Non-Romantic Relationships: Seirizawa Katsuya & Reigen Arataka & Dimple

Summary: Ido confronted Serizawa, and Reigen was very supportive there.

Author Notes: Sooooo this is my first MP100 fic and also my first story in years. I really love Serizawa and Reigen. I wish them to be happy. Of course now I can see many flaw in the fic, but there are still some parts that I truly enjoy. Hope you do too! :)

Chapter 6

By the time they returned to the office, it was already dark. Outside the dimly lit building, there was a large sign that said "Spiritual Counseling Office" and a window with blinds next to it. Although the curtains were always drawn, a faint light could be seen. Reigen would definitely remember to turn off the lights (because he was stingy with the electricity bill), so since the light was on, it meant that someone was in the office.

It was probably the kids. He thought so. But when he opened the door, he found that it was not the case.

A middle-aged man was sitting on the office sofa. With his neatly combed hair and crisp white shirt, he was staring at the exaggerated "Greatest Psychic of the 21st Century" poster on the wall. Because of the excessive photo-shopping, Reigen looked more cunning than confident. Only when he heard the door open did the man turn to face them. It was a figure Reigen didn't recognize, but Serizawa was quite familiar with.

"Ito-san!"

"Hello. Since the door was unlocked, I took the liberty of coming in." Ito bowed, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Reigen secretly, "Nice to meet you. I'm Ito Sayuu. Serizawa and I are classmates from night school."

Ito…? Reigen's mind raced and immediately connected the dots.

"So you're a classmate of Serizawa. Welcome! Please make yourself at home. We really appreciate how you’ve looked after Serizawa." he said with a bright smile, gesturing for Serizawa to sit on the sofa, "You're here to see Serizawa, aren't you? Take your time, I'll make some tea."

Serizawa said with some discomfort, "Why is Ito-san here?"

"You were absent from class yesterday. I heard from the teacher that you didn't ask for an excused absence, so I was worried and thought I'd drop by at the address on your business card. Here, this is yesterday's homework and notes." Ito took out some papers from his briefcase and said kindly, " It's a relief. I was afraid you might be scared to go out again."

"Uh…" Serizawa shrank, avoiding eye contact, "Thank you for your concern. I'm fine."

"That’s good to hear. I'm glad I came. And I get to see the excellent boss Serizawa told me about, so now I’m reassured." Ito smiled, "Now I can be 100% sure that this company is a fraud."

-Thunk.

Reigen slammed the ceramic cup down, "Tea, please."

"Don't be mad. I won't tell anyone, for Serizawa's sake."

"I'm not mad. I've met enough skeptics; you won't make a difference." Reigen said, sitting down next to Serizawa, leaning back and crossing his legs, "Let's get straight to the point. What’s your real purpose for coming here?"

"You are certainly an experienced fraudster. So I'll come straight to you. I want Serizawa to join my company."

"That is his own choice. What's it to me?"

Ito stared at Reigen, "I can see that you have extremely good observation skills, coupled with a flamboyant but infectious performance and dialogue. You use these skills to fool some unfortunate souls who think they have encountered supernatural events, perform some random spells according to the Internet, and then say some words to put them at ease. Am I wrong?"

"If you're so good at reading people, why don't you look in the mirror? Afraid to see a cocky punk?"

Ito maintained his politeness, but his eyes were clearly enraged.

"The problem is that Serizawa believes in you with all his heart. He lacks social experience and judgment, which makes him easy prey for someone like you, who uses his naivety to manipulate him while making him believe he's doing good. It's just so pathetic, I can't bear to see it." He tapped his fingers heavily on the desk, "Exorcism? Psychic powers? If it's true, how about you show me right now?"

Dimple squinted at them, "Just let Serizawa show off a little, so that guy will shut up."

"No." Reigen declared, "It is not necessary."

"Looks like it’s not going to happen." Ito smiled, "Forget it. I'm not interested in arguing with you. Supporters will always come up with reasons anyway. We're actually quite similar in some aspects. There's no need to be enemies. Let's make a deal between our companies."

"What is it?"

"You fire Serizawa, and I'll offer you a sum of money that will more than make up for the loss."

"What do you take others for…? Pawns for you to play with?"

"Just like you. Whatever you want to call it, I'm just good at using other people's talents. I place them in the most suitable position according to their weaknesses and abilities. It's perfectly reasonable."

"Right. Now I finally understand."

Reigen was expressionless, but his eyes showed unreserved contempt.

"You're the one who has been disturbing Serizawa for the past two days. For someone who lacks self-confidence like Serizawa, you just have to keep denying his thoughts, ignoring his feelings, and acting as if he's not normal, and you represent the universal values. Once he no longer trusts himself and instead believes in you to lead him, he'll be at your mercy.

He pointed at himself with his thumb.

"On the other hand, a self-centered, petty, snobbish fraudster like me, who has less capital than your company, will be easier to deal with by offering a favorable deal. To put it bluntly, you don't really need Serizawa as an employee. You just enjoy the hunt."

Ito was flustered for a moment, obviously not expecting Reigen to be so eloquent and explicit. But he quickly regained his composure.

"Now we're both on the same page. What's your decision?"

"For something this important, shouldn't we ask the person involved?" Reigen looked at the subordinate, "What do you say, Serizawa?"

"Uh, I…."

Serizawa was at a loss for words. He had been silent, listening to the two presidents' war of words over him, wringing his hands in anxiety and keeping his eyes on the ground. He was not as eloquent as Reigen or Ito. Now he was asked for his opinion. He stammered for a long time, unable to clear his thoughts and couldn't spit out a single word.

"Serizawa, you will make it right, won't you?" Ito softened his tone again and changed to that seductive manner, "Think rationally; the objective conditions on my side are certainly better, and my company is quite decent. I'm sure your mother would be very happy if you came to work for me."

Mother? Serizawa's expression turned panicked. Reigen noticed the reaction and recalled the accident at the convenience store yesterday. He had just entered the store after withdrawing his money, when he overheard Serizawa talking on the phone. His quick mind connected the dots, and he immediately realized what had happened.

Ito Sayuu. Reigen hadn't expected him to be this despicable. Now, he was really pissed off. This guy not only undermined Serizawa's self-esteem, but even used his family to make him feel ashamed and guilty.

"… Mom was always worried about me," Serizawa said, "She was always like that.  I had told her several times to give it up, but she kept finding new counselors to convince me to leave the room. She didn't understand. I just didn't want to hurt people anymore, and I didn't want to be reviled and treated like a monster.

"But I've thought about it. There are so many things in this world that I do not understand. For example, I can't understand why Ito-san is so confident, so unafraid of others, and so bold in expressing your opinions. So I think it's actually quite normal that Ito-san can't understand my thoughts right now."

He swallowed nervously and forced himself to look up at Ido.

"I have learned a lot here, and I have used my abilities to help many troubled clients. Reigen-san is a good person. I like the people here. I'm very happy." Serizawa bent down and bowed deeply to Ito, "Thank you very much, Ito-san, for your kind offer, but I must decline your suggestion. This is a decision based on my own judgment."

Ito's face was extremely grim. He stared straight at Serizawa for a long time without saying a word.

"All right! You heard the man. That's the way it is." Reigen propped himself up on his knees. He walked over to his desk by the window and opened his laptop.

"Why…" Ito muttered.

"Let me give you a free piece of advice." Reigen said, "No matter how good you are, the most important thing is humanity. That's why you failed today."

"Hmph, don't bother." Ito picked up his briefcase and turned to leave. Serizawa hurried after him.

"Wait, Ito-san. You're going to night school, right? Let's go together."

Ido paused for a moment, looked back at Serizawa, examined him up and down as if for the first time, "Serizawa-san, you're a surprise to me. I guess my judgment is still too narrow."

Ito suddenly smiled. Somehow, it felt more genuine than ever, not hiding his ambition at all.

"One day, I will make you recognize my company. Then you'll regret your decision and beg me to take you in. Wait for it!"

"Yes! I'm looking forward to it, Ito-san."

"Enough talk. Let's go."

After they left, the office suddenly became very quiet. Dimple had long since left, leaving Reigen alone at his desk, his head propped up on his hands. He seemed bored, using the computer reluctantly.

The flickering, pale screen showed the Icefox window, currently open on an email page. Reigen scrolled through the inbox, skimming over countless spam emails and a few non-urgent help requests, to find a single email that looked relatively normal. It was from two days ago, with the subject line "For Arataka" and the sender listed as "Mom".

"Rely on you guys a little bit more… yeah?"

He moved the mouse, opened the email, and began composing a reply.

He had been relying on you for a long time, in every way. Reigen thought. It's just that he's a little too slippery for anyone to notice.

(The End)

[arabaka]

okay.... I gotta ask. Serizawa x reader bedroom headcanons? What are his tastes? Does he like to take his time and cherish the moment or be rough and brash, taking what he wants? What do you think he looks like underneath everything? Would love to hear your takes! :))

*₊˚💬୧ BUTTERY MAKE MY BRAIN GO BRRRR

first let's talk about serizawa and his god-like body. i am not talking about chiseled, greek statue mf. i am talking pudge. i am talking excessive body hair. look, no hate to those that envision seri with a toned body or maybe even abs but honestly, that's not how i picture him! i imagine him to have a little belly on his lower abdomen, perfect for kissing and rubbing when you cuddle <3 man has the most rugged happy trail. he starts "manscaping" (lol) when you first start getting intimate because he thinks he has to but you ask him to hold off one time and oh LORD what awaits you is just--- perfect. his pubic hair would be dense but it stops at the base. he does regular maintenance on his balls because they get unruly otherwise and kinda uncomfy. kjFLKDJFSGLKJDG;D BEAUTIFUL BIG MAN THAT I WANT TO SMOTHER IN KISSES

his heart? big. his cock? bigger. like i mentioned in my super thirsy anon answer seri is at least 8 inches. AT. LEAST. i know he has a monster cock. i just know it. i'm flipping over whether he has thick veins or if he's mostly smooth with thick foreskin either one has be going ballistic. FAT COCK SERI SUPREMACY

as far as sex with seri, if he's going to be rough with you it won't be until you've been together for a while and he knows that: 1) he can control himself (and knows more about himself and what he likes) and 2) that you can take it. but he loves exploring those boundaries with you when you get there. otherwise he's so delicate with you. he's as giving as a lover gets! LOVES TO EAT YOU OUT. literally one of his favorite things to do, no matter what position but 69 is his go to because he gets to see you, so up close and personal. probably 2nd preferred position is you just straight up sitting on his face. maybe into breath play in that regard but YOU suffocating him. he wouldn't be a fan of doing that to you but he does like to see his big hand on your neck (no squeezing though). going back to him being fucking you hard and nasty, he especially loves when you're on top or doggy style because he can grab your waist and really hammer you hard, doing a mix of rough thrusts and intense pulling motions so he's reaaaalllyy going all out inside you.

he'd be the type to always use condoms until one day, when y'all run out and are really in the heat of the moment, you tell him to go raw and he never looks back from that point on lol. provided y'all are safe ofc!!!!!!!

actual image of seri judging me but knowing I am right

[a|b|o, α!Mob wants to mark his mate with cum (18+)]

MobRei | Mob Psycho 100 Omergaverse 23-05-2023

[#mobrei, bukkake, a/b/o]

Reigen wasn't so sure what had come over his mate, really he wasn't usually like this, even when in rut. Mob had never been this possessive, marking every inch of his body with bite marks, hickeys and his scent. As if it wasn't enough to make everyone know that Reigen was /his/.

Maybe suddenly having many alpha clients coming to the office hadn't helped, especially when many had tried being handsy and flirty with him. Probably didn't help that he had tried teaching Serizawa how to massage people, which had led to the other alpha's scent sticking to him a little bit due to Reigen being the test dummy. Poor Serizawa had looked pitiful under Mob's glare and low growl when he came back to that.

All of this cumulated with Mob's upcoming rut had likely not helped.

Reigen had never really been into being come onto, it felt kinda gross when it cumulated too much. Yet today it was as if Mob just decided to ignore his whine about it, doing it over and over again (not that he was allowed to do so inside without proper protection anyway).

Reigen could tell he was marking him some more like this, knowing it was kind of common for alpha to smear cum all over their omega to scent them more strongly, but Mob had never really shown any interest in doing that, even less with Reigen's distaste for it.

Reigen was coming down from yet another high of pleasure, feeling tired after the many rounds (he wasn't young anymore). He felt a bit confused when he felt Mob moving up the bed, straddling his upper torso and keeping him from moving much.

"Arataka" the alpha mumbled, hand working on himself, gripping at his forming knot.

Reigen was a bit too late to realise what he wanted to do to stop it, closing his eyes by instinct as Mob started coming all over his face.

Reigen could feel the hot semen landing on his face, some likely messing his hair up even more. Could feel drip a little, making a sticky mess of his face.

He didn't like it at all, maybe he should scold Mob later.

But his inner omega was revelling in the act.

He felt embarrassed at how he was whining and purring at the action, not moving at all as he took it all. Something deep in him overjoyed that his alpha was marking him like this, was using such a method to do so on him.

He felt drunk on the heavy scent it was leaving behind.

Really, the only thing he could smell at the moment was Mob, all over and around him.

When he finally opened his eyes again (not without cringing a little at some having landed close to his eyes and stuck to his eyelashes), he found Mob looking down at him, looking so pleased with what he had just down. He could feel the happy rumble coming from him, travelling through him and only feeding his inner omega even more.

They stayed like this for a while, Mob lazily smearing his come around, until he finally moved off of him.

He nuzzled against his mate's neck, kissing him and calling out to him as he carried him to their bathroom. At least his young alpha still had enough mind to try and make his mate comfortable after what he did.

Reigen hope this wasn't going to become a trend, even though instinct wanted it to.

Although, he would lie if he said he wasn't at least a little happy that Mob wanted to mark him that badly to show off who he belong too that he would use that method.

Tag game!

Got tagged by @happy-mokka (psst, @eugenoid-remade was my temporary account, I reside in here now)

------------------

Rules: name your favorite movie, character, animal, drink, song, season, book, color and hobby.

Well, I can never pick a favorite anything (besides maybe animals and colors), so I'll just go on a whim with my choices mostly, listing what I like most at the moment, more or less.

------------------

Favorite movie: I really struggled to come up with anything, but after scraping my memory for anything my brain came up with "What We Do in The Shadows" (yes, the movie, I have yet to watch the show), my mom also really loved it after my recommendation, so it has a special place in my heart.

Favorite character: right now it's definitely Crowley (duh) from Good Omens, but it's also Reigen and Serizawa from Mob Psycho 100, Abe from Big Windup, Annie and Owen from Maniac (the short netflix series), and. And. There's probably so much more, but my mind comes out blank, so let's leave it as it is.

Favorite animal: SHARKS BABEEYYYY! I also like cats a lot. And CROWS, duh [x2]

Favorite drink: Coffee probably? But only with milk and something sweet. I also like Schweppes (not sponsored).

Favorite song: I listen to SO much music, how the hell am I supposed to pick just one song? I'll just post a bunch that come to mind (with links)

"Dethroning Of The Party Queen" and "Number 149" by Rosalie Cunningham (I LOVE ROSALIE SO MUCH MAN SHE'S GREAT)

"Scream Whole" by Methyl Ethel

"Other People" by LP

"Мама, мы все сошли с ума" by Кино

"Wait a Million Years" by The Grass Roots (this is THE azicrow song to me)

"On GP" by Death Grips

Okay I need to stop myself or I'll drop a whole playlist on your heads. God I hate picking favorite songs, I feel like this is ALL WRONG

Favorite season: Summer, late spring and very early fall, because my depression gets worse with shorter days and less sunlight.

Favorite book: OOOOOF, I feel like I haven't read enough books to properly choose, but. Let's say "Good Omens" for now.

Favorite color: teal, pink (the kinds that are warm and orange-ish) and black (blueish black especially). Look at them.... beautiful. I also love combinations of blue+yellow and blue+orange.

Favorite hobby: Well, right now I'm pursuing (trying to pursue) an art career, so I don't think drawing counts as hobby anymore. I guess I enjoy playing video games? I like singing. I'm getting back into writing fanfiction, so that should also count?

Tagging @someoneyoudontreallyknow, @eviltits, @icecreamvi, @reitziluz and @telivanistoolateparty (if you feel like doing it, of course), and anyone else who wants to, really

Mob Psycho Season 2 re-watch thoughts

Whelp that was intense!!!

Okay first, watching Shigeo cycle through all his 100% emotions was more gripping than I remember. And yep I am still fucking fascinated with 100% ecstasy.

There is still something so, so so soooo unnerving about the start to that fight. Shigeo leans into rage on purpose, which I didn't remember. And then when he gets to ecstasy/bliss before falling into sadness and then resignation...fuck. Even on the rewatch it's so intense. It's a lot all at once. SO many emotions ,and there is always this strange happiness I have for him, to get to experience ALL THAT but it's also so jarring.

Something that surprised me, was Shigeo's anger through most of the 3-4 episode finale just throughout it. I had watched many clips, but on the rewatch, he is legit just pissed the whole way through. He comes back a bit a few times but like, for the most part, he is mad. And I didn't really realize that before. He is showing so much emotion especially after the fire. Like yeah this scene didn't last long

But the emotions from it come through the whole rest of the finale. His argument with Serizawa, him finally snapping at Suzuki. All of it felt like he was holding onto that anger from earlier and not letting it go until he basically went to 100% on everything.

In a way Shigeo used that fight to process his own emotions probably, everything he had been holding in.

I also think that being able to actually feel those emotions, even if they were unstable, shows Shigeo's growth. The fact that he raises his voice in the finale, that he is assertive, that he realizes the responsibility he (and he makes this choice, I don't think he was forced into it) wants to take.

Okay, he was backed into a corner somewhat. But he could have taken the same out as S1. If he REALLY wanted to and asked Reigen, you know Reigen would have agreed.

Shigeo decided that he needed to take action, that he could help save the people he cared about. It nearly destroyed him which is a whole 'nother bucket of feels.

Also fuck now that I am thinking about the whole end scene, of Reigen.

Fuck what was he thinking? I mean, at this moment, he had to of thought Mob was dead....

And then after they found Mob he had gone further than anyone had seen him before. He was down for the count, completely spent. That's scary. To see someone you care about get to that place. Push themselves so far they can't even move. That's scary for Reigen, for Ritsu, for Teru—they all saw Shigeo as invincible. And at that point, where they find him, they realize that he's not.

He came within a breath of dying and that is something that weighs on anyones mind, let along two kids and Reigen (who okay, is an adult but he is only 25. I remember when I was 25...you're an adult. But still have a lot of life to learn).

But anyway.

Wonderful season.

I think it has the highest highs for me, but still not my favorite. Nothing compares to the finale for me.

I can't wait to get to confession arc.

A personal (and probably wrong) ranking of the MonsterVerse

I decided to start the MonsterVerse last month after realising it's 10 years old and one of the only successful outcomes of the cinematic universe boom of the early 2010s. And so I marathoned everything in a couple of weeks. And now with the next movie coming out in March I decided to rank my opinions. And I get that everything I say is probably objectively wrong but that's how it is. I should mention I have no history with kaiju movies. I saw the 1998 Godzilla as a kid and once again as an adult. I thought it was a flawed but passable blockbuster, not the worst thing ever created. I would love if Zilla were added to the MonsterVerse but I get there are probably licensing issues in the way. And I remember being very positive about the 2005 King Kong and those leeches will haunt my nightmares forever.

N/A. The novelisations and TTRPG (2014-) I haven't read these. I understand the novels expand on the story of the movies by adding context and backstory. I might try these later.

7. All the comics (2014-) Just to get them out of the way, all the tie-in comics kinda suck. In the way all tie-ins tend to. Rushed inconsequential stories with no real depth. Skull Island: The Birth of Kong had a chance but was so focused on the Monarch mission that the titular event is relegated to a questionable vision by the villain. This doesn't cover Justice League vs. Godzilla v. Kong which I have not started.

6. Godzilla (2014) The movie starts pretty good, but with the death of Cranston's character we lose the most interesting viewpoint and are left with generic white-bread soldier guy, who is the least of all the protagonists in these movies. The movie even looks gorgeous at first and settles to just very good after they leave Japan. I am uncomfortable with how uncritical this movie was of the US military. Out of their depth sure, but good people trying their best. When Serizawa brings up Hiroshima, the film has so disconnected Godzilla from the horror of nuclear weapons that it feels like he's only protesting because of his family history. not connected to the themes in any way. ALSO they do the thing where they bring up a historical tragedy/atrocity but use an in-universe justification to make it less objectionable. So the Castle Bravo test was actually trying to destroy Godzilla. The occasional shot of dispassionate, uncaring destruction left in the wake of phenomenally uncaring monsters of unfathomable power are very effective, but they're too few. And at the end the MUTOs start caring about the regular soldiers. "I may currently be fighting Godzilla but some guy started a boat over there and I need to kill that for some reason!" And the fact they monster fights keep happening in locations that coincide with soldier guy's journey gets comical.

5. Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) Some fun fighting between giant ape and lizard. And I was happy to get King Ghidorah back because he was awesome in KotM. But his actual fight is not particularly long because we spend most of the movie on the journey to the hollow earth and then the second fight between Kong and Godzilla, leaving Ghidorah's return feeling too rushed. The actual human plots are very meh. The investigators team feel very Marvel studios goofy in a bad way. I have no love for conspiracy theorists anymore and the moment Bernie brings up fluoride he lost me. The expeditionary team are boring. I do not care beyond the little girl having a bond with Kong. That was sweet but everyone else is irrelevant to me. I would prefer just learning about the axe and Kong's people rather than focusing on this crossover. I did have a chuckle that both the star kaiju are characterized as massive alpha-bros who need to be the biggest dick in the room. But otherwise it's just some fun action with nothing much of substance.

4. Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) There is an ongoing problem in this whole franchise that is most present here: nature doesn't have inherent balance. So much is based around heroes and villains insisting we need to step back and allow nature to fix itself, because it has a plan and a will. But it doesn't. Nature cannot fix the damage we have done on its own. We need to actively undo what we've done to it. So the fact they keep insisting this and treating what amounts to new age religious faith as though it is any way scientific gets on my nerves. But otherwise this is a good one. Mark Russel is the best of the generic white guy main protagonists, his hatred for titans and insistence they're better all dead makes sense contrasted with everyone else's unfounded faith. But he also is willing to cooperate when it comes down to it. There are some gorgeous shots in here. King Ghidorah really sells the apocalyptic alien invader/literal actual Satan thing very well! I wanted more of him! I was interested in how they set up a universe of monsters with Mothra seemingly seeding something with her sacrifice and Rodan bowing to Godzilla but the movies so far seem to be ignoring them. Bring them back! Also I liked Dr. Stanton so I'm disappointed he was also dropped.

3. Skull Island (2023) I was surprised at how attached I got to the characters, especially with everyone actually turning out to be on the same side. There is a strong theme of family through all of these installments that can be interesting or not depending on the actual media. I don't think we're getting a season 2. It's Netflix. So in like 3 years one of the comics will mention how a bunch of people were rescued from the island in the 90s with no other context. And any continuation that doesn't end with a three way wedding between Sam, Irene and Cap is not canon.

2. Kong: Skull Island (2017) I know I'm against the majority rating this one here. But I love the anti-military theme. I like the way it looks, the sometimes psychedelic shots. Samuel L. Jackson sells the villain, the creatures are all awesome, none feel like filler creatures. I felt like Loki Bond and the anti-war reporter don't get arcs but their performances sell the characters very well. I would love if we could get them back, just do more with them. The stinger feels like a set up for a more behind the scenes look at Monarch. Speaking of...

1. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (2023-2024) This was the best one. Great characters, story, visuals, the whole package! Every Godzilla appearance is better than all the movies. The theme of family drama is central here and strong. The drama is palpable! I hope we get a continuation, either a season 2 or bring these people back in the movies. Rather than Millie Bobby Brown again. It's strong enough to be enjoyable on its own but sadly I don't know how sensical it is without having seen the movies. I want a physical release now!

The future Now I am going to start trying other films. Shin Godzilla and Godzilla Minus One, rewatch King Kong 2005. Also I started Godzilla: The Series to see if it gets interesting. And also eventually Godzilla Singular Point. I'll eventually watch Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire when it comes out but whether in theaters or not I don't know yet.

Of all the what-ifs scenarious that been running throught my head from the moment I knew this was the start of the final arc, this is the worst of them all, and its implications terrify me. During the episode, I absolutely loved all the references and tiny appearances of everyone who crossed path w Mob at some point giving him a grain of encouragement through their support! (also props to Onigawara he’s finally at tone w the rest of the body improvement club yess) and we did see how much Mob had improved too, not only in his academic and physical abilities, but also in his confidence, management of emotions and morals. Mob from the first season would have never dared to ask for advice on how to confess to a girl, less call her to ask her on a date, and that makes me tremendously happy I'm so proud of my bebe. Mob has come a long way and the life lessons he has learned thanks to the help of his environment have put the boy on the cusp of his development, but what just happened in this ep puts, in some way I believe, at risk everything that has been built up until now, not only because ???% will destroy and put everyone around it at risk of life, is about the psychological and moral impact it will have on Mob. The reason why this story began was the desire to change and control his powers because Mob was scared of himself (due Ritsu’s accident), that's how he met Reigen and forged his bond with him. Now, in the aftermatch, when mob opens his eyes (I don’t think he’s dead first of all) and sees what he did again and who he injured this time, how is he going to take it? that all his efforts during these years were in vain as he caused a disaster harming his loved ones once again? that's stuff enough to disown your entire way as futile. I don’t see Mob deserting of it either but I hope that he has enough mental strength to forgive himself for what will happen, and I only hope that those involved do not resent or get badly injured from this situation, and with this I want to mention Tsubomi, who is the one who is most at risk by proximity to the scene. So far no clear answer has been given on how to stop ???% but if I have to bet on something or someone who will not obey reasoning and try to save him somehow it will be Reigen., and here’s where I'm shitting my pants. Since Dimple died? dissapeared? I don't trust this series to keep the main characters well and safe less if this’ finale and honestly I fear for Reigen, a lot. I don’t see him dying but I’m still worried!!!!! 

When it comes to the central theme of this final arc, and I hope I didn't get the wrong idea, it has to do with rejection/acceptance and authenticity; I will be loved/accepted for who i am?. This topic highlights 3 characters on screen imo: Mob, Tsubomi and Reigen. Tsubomi and Reigen use social masks that hide their true selves., very uselful facades that helps them a lot to pass by throught day by day and gain people’s admiration and respect, but this convenient cynicism it only further isolates them from deep connections and genuine acceptance. Mob on the other hand, he is honest with his feelings, faithful to his values ie authentic; he did not deny or hide his insecurities or flaws instead he corrected them and improved them into a more kind and open persona: if Mob may to be loved he will be for who he is, not for what he should be. In this foil - authenticity representation between Tsubomi-Reigen vs Mob, I still do believe Tsubomi will reject Mob anyways (hunch) even if he did everything alright. You don't have control of who accepts or reciprocate your feelings and that’s okay! that’s one of the crude truths you have to learn in life and I see this is where is going. In regard to Reigen, he needs resolution to his struggles as they were bringed back in this very rare and open-vulnerability moment w Serizawa (loved that scene fr) “if I were to show who I truly am, no one will be able to accept me” and that’s, ugh I want to slam his face with the door (affectionate). Reigen has to overcome this anxiety/fear of rejection and express his true self especially to Mob since he’s the most precious person in his life. Also, this is gonna be the most difficult thing will Reigen do bc this is the one thing he's scared the most, to disappoint his student culminatting on Mob abandoning him uhuhj but no matter what Mob will always support and love his master and Reigen needs to know that! needs someone’s acceptance as a first step! this incluiding his fears, flaws and mistakes. Now on how this is gonna play out, will Reigen have to do this orden to save Mob from ???% ? idk. At last, I want to mention that this is the perfect set-up for Dimple to come back and save the day (in denial). I can’t wait for next ep it will be cathastropic for my health

The way you draw Reigen is phenomenal, tell me your favorite thing abt him if you want

THANK YOU SO MUCH?????? I've kinda been back-n-forth on loving/ hating how I draw him for the past month-ish, so it makes me super happy to hear someone likes how I draw him. :'D

I think my favorite thing about Reigen is... a mix of things if I'm being honest. Also I really don't wanna spoiler tag so here's a quick "I am going to mention stuff that happens within the Reigen Manga so those who don't want spoilers should probably not read this".

I like that he's Just A Guy despite the company he keeps. While I will read "AU where Reigen is an esper" stories for the hell of it, I don't think I'll ever be super big on it myself bc it just defeats the purpose of the original story for me. It would just be giving him an out to one of his biggest lies and like. He shouldn't be rewarded by the universe for that. I love this guy but giving him an out on that front is not appealing. Maybe if it happens AFTER he's dropped that lie I could enjoy it more but like, if it's done as a pre-confession arc thing or even while he's still lying to Serizawa about it, I don't think that's a good route to go with him. Sorry I went off abt the AU instead of the canon for a moment ig I don't have the words to explain why him being Just A Guy is appealing to me, but hopefully explaining why I'm not big on making him an esper sheds some light on it?

I also like, appreciate how he cares for others. He knows the kids are Just Kids despite their powers and doesn't want them (especially Shigeo) to have to deal with half the shit they end up needing to deal with. If he had realized sooner all of what Shigeo had been bottling up, he'd probably have dropped his façade sooner. Btw that whole scene in the finale [*chefs kiss] also like everyone else I wish he hugged Shigeo but alas, that's why we have fanart. Also I constantly rotate how he just, took the spirit from Tome in the manga. Of course he had a plan to deal with it, but had that not worked out I don't think he'd have been upset dying to save her. Another instance of, "this is just a fucking kid, she shouldn't be dealing with this shit." Also obligatory fuck you Roshuto. OH WHILE I'M HERE others have brought this up but him first worrying about Serizawa before himself in the OVA. Sits on the floor and sobs. I become more of an ekuserirei guy every day.

Also I just. Like him. I wont him (complicated). Bows before walking into the abyss.

[ID: A post-canon Mob Psycho 100 comic done in grayscale and set against pink backgrounds. Reigen, now older, laughs obnoxiously and says, "Ah, Mob. Glad you picked up. You up for a job--" Mob is now an adult wearing a suit and backpack, and he's standing on a train. He looks annoyed and says, "Shishou... I just got out of work. Can you at least not call me right after?"

Then he sweats and asks, "... It's not life threatening, is it?" Reigen, sweating, says, "Ah, well, no, but--" Mob, annoyed again, says, "Then let Serizawa handle it. He already opens up shop for you sometimes, right?" Reigen sweats with a helpless smile and says, "Well. Yes. But--" and then is shown from the back as Mob asks, "But what?"

Mob looks neutral as Reigen says, "Just one job? For old times sake?" Mob sighs and says, "... Fine. See you in the office, okay?" Reigen: "Okay." Mob says tiredly, "Take care," and Reigen says "You too." Mob sighs again, and some blank panels mark time passing.

Next, multiple people standing in Spirits and Such shout "Surprise!!" Serizawa, Dimple, Teru, Shou, Tome, Ritsu, Tsubomi, and Reigen all smile. The kids all have new designs, and Reigen looks proud. Mob looks surprised as confetti flutters down, and multiple panels show everyone enjoying: Tome going for an enthusiastic hug, cake being shared, and Dimple annoying Reigen while everyone smiles.

Mob says, "Shishou," and Reigen wryly says, "Mob." He laughs, "Hope you're not too old for cakes, or surprise parties." Mob replies with a smile, "Didn't we do that on your 29th birthday?" Reigen grins and elbows him. "You calling me old?" Mob smiles, "Not at all." He looks down, smiling softly, and says, "Thank you, shishou."

People chat in the foreground as Reigen raises a finger and says, "Tome planned the whole thing, got the whole gang back just for this. You know she's the resident party planner around here." Mob looks away with a smile and says, "No, not for that. Well, that too but." He closes his eyes and smiles. "I want to thank you. For everything."

Reigen quirks his eyebrows and asks with a wry grin, "Everything? Getting sentimental, are we?" Mob smiles and turns back to look at Reigen as he says, "I mean it. I wouldn't be who I am today without you." Reigen's eyes go wide, and he closes his eyes with a fond smile to say, "... Me too, kid. Happy birthday, Mob." End ID]

Happy birthday, Mob 🌺

MobRei 1933 Mob Psycho 100

reigen gets shrunken down after a spirit curses him, so he calls Mob to pick him up. His disciple decides he should punish him a little bit before he brings back his shisho to his original size.

__________________________________

“I am so happy you came to pick me up, Mob,” Reigen said with a smile, holding on more tightly to the young man’s jacket collar as he went up the stairs.

After all, it had already been admittedly scary to be shrunken down like this, waiting while other spirits may still be around. He was already pretty defenceless against bad spirits, at the size of a doll it was even worse than that.

“I still don’t understand how shisho managed to get shrunken down like this” the young man commented, finally entering the office. Reigen couldn’t help but frown slightly when Mob seemed to lock the office door.

“I am not sure either, that’s why I am happy you did answer my call” Reigen replied. Especially since Serizawa had seemed busy, seeing how he hadn’t picked up any of his. His first reflex had been to call Mob, but he didn’t want to bother him while he was at college for something like this if maybe Serizawa could help him out.

Of course, he didn’t mention Serizawa not picking up, knowing Mob wouldn’t like knowing he had, once again, gotten himself in danger with little chance of being helped.

“You do know how you could make me grow back to my usual size, right?” Reigen asked as Mob sat down at his desk. He allowed the young man to pick him up from where he was sitting on his shoulder, putting him down on his desk. He watched as Mob shrug off his jacket, making him feel a little puzzled.

This shouldn’t take very long, there was no need to settle down like this.

He didn’t move when Mob’s hands lazily wrapped around him, his thumb rubbing little circles against his hip. “I think I know how to do it, although it might take a couple of tries to get to it” Mob admitted, as honest as ever. “Shisho trust me even if it doesn’t work at first?”.

“Of course” Reigen smiled, leaning back against his fingers that had moved to support his back more. “I trust you with my life” Reigen pointed out. This earned him a quiet hum from Mob, nodding at his words.

“But before that, I think I should punish Arataka a little bit,” Mob said, his hold around Reigen tightening a little bit. This had the older man suddenly feeling a little bit more nervous, especially with powers starting to undress him like this.

“W-wait Mob! Calm down, we can talk instead” he said, biting down on his lips when he felt a finger brush against his clothes cock. It felt quite different from when Mob would touch him normally, one fingertip enough to really cover him fully.

“I don’t think talking will be enough, seeing how my many warnings and demands have seemingly been ignored by shisho” Mob replied, looking a little satisfied once Reigen was fully stripped of his clothes. “I know you must have called Serizawa before me, what would you have done if I had been at my dorm instead of visiting home for the long weekend?”.

This had Reigen quietly squirming in the young man’s hand, not replying to him. He wasn’t sure what he would have done really. After all, Mob had been able to join him so quickly because he had been at his parent’s house. it could have taken hours if he had been in his dorms a couple city away.

“That’s what I thought” Mob commented with a hum, picking up Reigen once again by making him sit in the palm of his hand. “I figured a punishment might be better this time, maybe shisho will learn” he added. And somehow, Reigen felt like there was also a little part inside of the young man that really wanted to take advantage of him being so small to play with him.

He didn’t fight as Mob used his finger to open his legs wider, showing his already half-erected cock. He couldn’t help but blush at the feeling of being put on display so much. It was one thing to be naked in front of Mob, but it was another when he was the size of a doll. It felt so different.

Yet something in his gut quite liked it, especially the way Mob used his finger and power delicately to tease him. This had him squirming some more, holding onto Mob’s other fingers to make sure he wouldn’t fall (as if the young man would ever let that happen).

In no time Reigen feels like it’s all too much, as if his body had grown a little more sensitive with being shrunken down like this. Yet it seemed like Mob wasn’t done with him, stopping any use of his power or fingers when it was starting to feel like he’d go over the edge.

“Mooob” he whined despite himself, hip rutting up in an attempt to get some type of friction. Instead, he received a chuckle as Mob pulled him closer to his face.

He was then kissed on the chest, trailing down rather quickly to between his legs. It felt really strange to have Mob suck him off like this while he was this size. It felt really warm and wet, like nothing he had felt before really either.

He had to hold as best as he could onto Mob’s head and hair, hip trying to buck up against his lips and tongue. It wasn’t too long before he came in what must have been really small spurt for Mob, falling boneless into his hand.

Mob still didn’t let him go yet, lips gently leaving kisses over his body has Reigen slowly recovered from coming like this. This had to be one of the best orgasms Reigen has had in a while, although it wasn’t too hard to beat jacking off by himself.

“Will Shisho be careful from now one?” Mob asked him, coming back onto the first reason that was used to start all this. This had Reigen laugh breathlessly a little bit, nodding at his question.

He then tried sitting up a little bit when Mob brought him back down onto his clothes. “what about you?” Reigen asked, knowing Mob had to also be hard right now.

“Well, maybe you can make it up to me after I get you back to your regular size” Mob suggested. He would have really liked to try some other thing while Reigen was even more defenceless against him like this. But he was a bit scared to hurt the man and he didn’t quite have the energy anymore to be that careful.

Plus, by making him grow back to his usual size, maybe he’ll be able to make the opposite happen. Maybe they can do something similar again in the future…

Apple Picking!

A/N: do I even have to say this anymore? Written as f/o content but I don't mind sharing or people reading as x reader

Summary: Ren and Serizawa go apple picking on their day off.

Word count: 1.6k

It was a bright and sunny day, and I was feeling a bit restless to go outside. Reigen was at work, but I had the day off, and I remembered Serizawa did too. Out of all the words I would use to describe Serizawa, outdoorsy would not be one of them. Despite that, he had been much more adventurous lately. He still gets anxious but he also pushes himself a lot more, especially since he feels comfortable with the people he's around. With all that in mind, I called him up. 

"Um… you want to go to an apple orchard?" he responded, "How? Where?" 

"There's just one down the road, you can go and harvest the apples yourself! Wouldn’t that be cute?" 

"Okay! Sounds good, I will be over soon," he said. 

And soon, he was over. He knocked on the door and I quickly opened it, letting him inside. He was wearing casual clothes, long jeans and a bright, cuddly, orange sweater. I jumped forward and wrapped my arms around him, pushing my head into his chest. His sweater was made of wool, and a bit scratchy, but it was warm. He smelled like fresh laundry. I pulled back from the hug, and looked up at him. He had a red tinge to his cheeks.

"Are you ready to go?" he asked. 

"Sure am!" I grabbed his hand, and walked out the door making sure everything was locked up before heading towards the farm a few blocks away. We walked in silence for a bit. It was a weekday, so the streets were pretty quiet and the main things we heard were the rustle of leaves and the occasional car going by. Our hands were intertwined and swaying back and forth gently as we walked. 

"What's your favourite thing about Autumn?" I asked.

Serizawa didn't say anything for a while. He was silent for so long that I thought he hadn't heard. Then he said, "the weather. I like being able to wear longer clothes, whilst also not having to avoid going outside… also the trees are losing their leaves… it's very pretty, but it's also both happy and sad. They have to die before they can be born again, stronger than before." 

"Wow," I squeezed his hand, "that's a really nice answer. Makes me feel a little bit silly for my answer."

Serizawa laughed softly, and rubbed the back of his neck with his free hand. "What's your answer?" 

"The increased frequency of hot chocolates."

Serizawa laughed. It was always so nice when he laughed. He's always been sweet, but the longer I've known him the more open and expressive he's become. 

"It's just up here," I pointed to the house down the hill, with the sprawling acreage of paddock and apple orchard surrounding it. Just like the streets leading up to it, it was quiet. We went in and were given baskets to pick the apples in. 

We wandered down the first aisle of trees, scanning them for the best apples and chatting idly, still holding hands at every opportunity. "Hey, Seri?" I paused, pointing up to the top of one of the trees, "I want that one." 

Serizawa paused too and followed my hand to see what I was pointing at, before looking back at me, his eyebrows furrowed and crossing his arms. "Do you really?" 

"Yes, of course I do," I whined, tugging at his arm, "Can I have that one?"

He rubbed the back of his neck as the red began to return to his cheeks. "Um, I don't know… I have a feeling you're just finding an excuse for me to lift you up." 

"Of course I am," I grinned at him, "What's the point of having you around if not for you to reach high things and to lift me up?" 

His smile wavered for a second before realizing I was kidding. "Alright," he said, putting his apple basket down. He lifted me up by holding me under my arms, and I reached and grabbed the apple. As he lowered me down again, he gave me a quick kiss on the cheek. 

I turned around again to face him, holding the apple in my hands, gesturing to it. "Thanks Seri, I bet this is gonna be the nicest one." 

We continued walking down the aisles of trees. "What are we going to do with all these apples anyway?" he asked. 

"I thought we could make an apple pie! I could teach you my great grandmother's recipe!"

He stopped walking, and I turned to face him, still holding his hand. "That's really nice. I hope I can help her legacy live on." 

I smiled. "You'll do great, I know it. Plus, it's super easy, so you'd have to be pretty bad at cooking to mess it up." 

He laughed nervously. I tugged on his arm. "Seri, I'm tired, can you carry me back?" I said, smiling mischievously.

He looked at me for a moment, before silently taking my basket and bending down for me to climb onto his back. He held my legs around his hips, and I took the baskets from him, wrapping my arms around his neck. I nuzzled my face into his hair. We wandered a bit further, before returning to the entrance, paying, and walking the short walk back home. 

I handed Serizawa an apron before putting on my own, and we got straight into making the apple pie. We peeled, cut, and cooked the apples, before putting them aside and starting on the pastry. I made up the mix and put in the special bicarb soda, causing it to foam up, and Serizawa looked on in wonder. We made up the pastry, and before setting it aside to rest, Serizawa pulled off a small, very small amount and ate it. 

"Seri!" I exclaimed, laughing. He looked at me like a deer caught in the headlights, and his cheeks were as red as the apples. "What, did you think you were being sneaky?" 

He continued to stare, frozen. "Kind of, yeah." 

"Well, sorry to say, but nothing you do gets past me!" I stood up straight, pointing my thumb at myself. "You're going to have to pay for that!" 

His eyes were wide, and he blinked twice, before saying, "not if you can't catch me first!" before turning and attempting to escape. 

He only got a foot or two away from me before I grabbed his hand. "Caught you!" I exclaimed. 

"Shoot. How can I get out of this one?"

"I have something in mind," I said, before wrapping my arms around his neck and jumping up, putting my legs around his hips. He instinctively grabbed my legs to hold them there, but made a noise of surprise. I closed the gap between our lips, and kissed him gently. So soft, always so soft. I felt my back against the wall. My heart was beating out of my chest, and I felt breathless already. His grip on my thighs tightened. I reached up and put one hand in his hair, as I kissed his cheek, his jaw, and his neck, pulling gently on his hair, and he moaned. Serizawa moaned, involuntarily I presume because he pulled back suddenly, and stared at me, wide eyed. Blushing somehow even more than before. 

"I, uh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that," he stammered, and I accidentally laughed. He looked momentarily distraught, before laughing nervously. "I-"

I put my finger over his lips. "Don't be sorry." 

"I've… that's never happened before." 

"Really?"

He nodded. 

"I mean, I know you haven't had a thrilling romantic life but I assumed you really only went to work at Spirits and Such to make out with Reigen." 

He shook his head. "No, I've kissed Reigen, quite a bit but… it… that hasn't happened before." 

"Score," I said, smiling, "I made you moan before Reigen did." Serizawa blushed and looked at the floor. "Hey," I held his chin and lifted it up, "just to be clear, it's nothing to be ashamed of. I know it can be… weird, to lose control like that. But you're in a safe space. And that's a completely natural, and sexy, reaction. Especially if it's unintentional." 

"Thanks… sorry I'm so new and awkward about this stuff." 

"Hey, don't be sorry! It's an honour to know I was the first person who made you moan," I said, brushing his hair back. We stayed in silence for a moment. "Aren't your arms getting tired?" 

"Not really…" 

"Why don't we just migrate over to the couch and cuddle." 

Serizawa carried me over to the couch and we stayed there for a bit. I lay my head on his chest, and listened to his breathing. After a while we got up and finished off the pie, putting it in the oven. We took off our aprons, and I stole Serizawa's jumper. I put it on and it was so warm and it smelt like him, and it was way too big and the sleeves came way over my hands. I spun around. "What do you think?" I asked, attempting to do jazz hands. 

Serizawa stared with his mouth open, and his cheeks bright red. "I… I love it. You look amazing," he said, before coming up to me, picking me up and spinning me around. 

"Aww, thanks!"

It wasn't long before Reigen was coming home from work, so we spent some time playing Super Mario. 

Soon, the front door opened, and Reigen came in. "Hey guys! How was your day off, leaving me all alone in the office," Reigen pouted. 

"I made Serizawa moan," I said, proudly. Serizawa shoved his face into a pillow. 

"Ah, a productive day I see," he paused for a second, looking around the room. "Is that pie I smell?" 

[inkedberries]

Hey! Have you been seeing MP100? What's your opinion until now? Love you <3

ohhhhhhh yeah man ive been seeing mp100!!!!!! i am not surprised that i love it all still ;; ;;

the ed of shigeo waking up before dawn to jog and taking in the view of the river makes my heart grow three sizes, i love it GORGEOUS SHOWSTOPPING BREATHTAKING

im also so HAPPY with how they showed the whole thing with shigeo's initiative to do a better job at making the costume for their haunted house at the cultural festival

SWEETHEART YOU DID AMAZING

honestly i forgot about what the whole deal is with the yokai thing when i was reading the manga back then, bc it felt like "why is this happening, is this needed???" but then upon watching this, im like oh OKAY so that's why lmao

and of course, serizawa gets a special mention here too. he was so cool in this week's episode

[shigayokagayama]

actually ive decided to be mentally ill open this to gaze into the abyss (my ageswap au)

ok so the main driving premise is kind of a roleswap like

mob <-> serizawa

tome <-> reigen

teru <-> toichiro

instead of finding mob or ritsu, dimple found teru and gave him the whole “if you team up with me you can become a god” schtick and teru was like “oh boy godhood!” and formed an organization that i am calling claw just for convenience but is functionally kind of a combo of claw and LOL? the absence of mogami and mob means that dimple is still full power so theres a lot less violence involved in maintaining their structure and a lot more brainwashing espers by making them feel happy just by being around dimple which dissuades them from leaving

mob was kind of their golden ticket to moving forward in the whole “taking over the world” thing. teru was going around recruiting espers and in his research learned about an extremely powerful esper who caused some sort of accident that left some girl dead (ill get to this in a second) then disappeared years ago. turns out its mob and he’s been in his room for 14 years ala serizawa. teru tracks down ritsu, convinces him that he works with an organization that helps troubled espers, then takes mob for the purpose of being a normal claw member.

at some point during the “assessing his abilities” part of this process they discovered mob has the power to give/take energy and teru and dimple’s plan shifts to “take over the world by brainwashing people the old fashion way” to “take over the world by convincing everyone theyre godsents who have the ability to give people psychic powers”

also during all this theyre still doing the whole “kidnap and brainwash kids” thing with the added bonus of teru being able to learn the powers of people he fights. so hes just. collecting powers like pokemon cards by beating the shit out of kids. and teru really really wants to learn how to do that energy thing mob can do so he starts trying to get closer to him to see if he can learn it through observation (cause he knows if he actually fought him he’d get his ass kicked) but slowly starts to become actual friends with him and is like. wait. is this what human connection feels like???

meanwhile on the non-claw side of things we get reigen, serizawa, and tome. tome and serizawas dynamic is essentially reigen and mobs from the normal universe. in this universe mob did join the telepathy club because he didnt really have enough personal agency to choose to join the body improvement club, so he and tome were friends and when he went missing they lost their fifth member and the club got disbanded which led to her becoming very jaded and giving up on her alien dreams (which she generally looks back on as cringey and embarrassing :( ) and without really having a clear direction ended up starting s&s, with serizawa coming to her for advice after losing control of his powers and hurting his mom as a kid.

reigen is a super troubled adhd “gifted kid” who is seen as a general nuisance by just about everything. he switches fixations constantly, hes always quitting things after getting super invested in them for short periods of time (which is REALLY pissing off his parents), and his newest fixation is psychics. after serizawa saves him from a spirit in that haunted ass forest that was created by that one weird psychic accident mob caused years ago he ends up convincing tome to let him work for spirits and such, partially because hes interested in the paranormal and partially because he needs money after his mom cancelled his WOW subscription in retaliation for him quitting kung fu.

serizawa, who spent most of middle school just trying to do his work and keep his head down, ends up not only getting reigens attention but also toichiros. toichiro is a transfer from another school who got expelled for attacking another kid and is generally surrounded by a lot of bad rumors. he immediately latches onto serizawa as the first esper kid he meets at this new school and starts trying to convince him that theyre better than other people, which serizawa doesnt buy. also, his esper gang from his old school is disappearing, as are all the other esper kids around town, which is kind of scaring the shit out of him

i deliberated over what to make toichiro and shous relationship for so long. like, it feels weird not to make him his dad but it feels even weirder to make shou randomly like 10 years older than everyone else. so my compromise was that hes his older brother and legal guardian after their parents died in an accident which shou is pretty sure toichiro caused (i chose sibling and not uncle because shou and toichiros normal relationship is supposed to be a direct parallel to mob and ritsus).

shou is a character i feel is done super dirty by every ageswap. guys. look at me. there is no universe where shou is the leader of claw. if shou being brought up by toichiro left him a generally good person if a bit inconsiderate of other peoples feelings and kind of “ends justify the means”-y, shou being brought up by literally anyone else would leave him a normal well adjusted person.

just to give him some connection to claw instead of letting this poor guy live his dreams of drawing dragons and shit im making him a government esper spying on claw. ritsu also works with the government but since he never went through big cleanup or met dimple he has 0 control over his abilities and instead just works in the division that knows they exist and deals with them. hes friends w shou and they both fuckin hate their jobs but feel like its their duty to make the world a better place. also ritsu is desperately trying to reach mob but mob has spent too much time with claw and become convinced ritsu is just trying to hold him down.

also that accident ive been mentioning? yea im going to try to lead people to think its the confession arc gone wrong for as long as possible before throwing in a minori curveball. yea tsubomi is not involved in ANY of this, she isnt mobs tragic backstory and she gets to live her own life.

this is just all the set up not getting into the actual plot uhhh what did i leave out? oh mezatos a reporter investigating the claw stuff and gets involved with tome (this happens a bit into the story so i wont get into detail) and emi is a ghostwriter. takenaka is basically a spy for hire at claw because most jobs dont let you just wear earbuds at work and overstimulation sucks, the awakening lab kids at claw because there are not a lot of other options there are so few kid espers in mob psycho.

also while im here ive been consuming so many recently so im curious

favorite mp100 au ?? if u have one !!

ok so im going to preface this by saying i am the pickiest person in the world when it comes to fanfiction. like. i am not joking, i have closed fanfictions before because i thought that the writer made a character's music taste ooc.

im a big fan of ageswaps IF they acknowledge the far reaching consequences reigen not being present in mob's early life would have on him and everyone else in his generation. the vast majority of ageswaps are not to my taste because theyre a bit too generous with how everyone would have grown up without the influence of a mob who met reigen.

specifically teru is generally made like, kind of a self obsessed celebrity when like.

i mean.

come on.
