#i love my haircut so much aaaa

[pennymations]

Soooo I got a new haircut...

[absoluteabsolem]

okay guys i'm having a brainrot on my way to work about goncharov bc of all your sexy meta posts but i haven't seen a single one talking about the flowers in this film so indulge me

so i'm a florist right ? my n°1 passion when i watch a movie or a show is to trashtalk the flowers bc 99,9% of the time they look like shit. like. i made better arrangements during my first year of training. it makes me sad. yes goncharov is a brilliant film in itself but it gets a whole star just for the fucking flowers (i can't find the florist in the end credits if anyone knows pls tell me ??)

like we're talking thierry boutemy in marie-antoinette (2006) levels of artistry. all the arrangements are so BEAUTIFUL and i'm gonna talk about them. it will ofc mostly be about katya lmao bc men yet have to express themselves through delicate floral jewellery (i wish they did though. i am waiting). katya doesn't have that many lines for a main character but her presence and the colours speak for themselves. sorry i'm on mobile i don't have any pictures

alright so of course you have the wedding. everything is so fucking opulent it's a cascade of wealth you have almost no foliage at all except eucalyptus and that shit is expensive. there are more peonies than you could ever count and the roses are soooo beautiful (i think most of them are juliet peach roses but i can't be 100% sure) like. i could smell it from my couch it was as if i was there aaaa the fucking wax flowers and scabiosas i love scabiosas so much !! and the perfect balance between flowers of different sizes !!! it was wonderful i mean you've seen them

but what i love about these arrangements is that they're all in white and yellow. it's an unusual combo for a wedding even if white is a classic wedding colour in western cultures and yellow isn't so weird at the heart of summer. yellow is however also the colour of jealousy and betrayal and idk if you ever noticed but andrey's boutonniere is the ONLY ONE that is just yellow. you don't have the white carnation (associated with love. screaming) on it like everybody else. also note that katya's bouquet is only white which is all about purity elegance etc. i do think however that the colours of andrey and katya's flowers on that day are more about the way goncharov feels about them at that point in the story, rather than their own feelings.

we also see katya wear several decorated combs in her hair throughout the film (idk enough about hair stylism to comment of the haircuts themselves so i'll stick to the flowers). the first we see are pretty simple and not rly noticeable, white and pastel pink, typical discreet but feminine stuff. p much like the rest of her wardrobe up until the boat scene where things get interesting.

this is where katya meets sofia who is wearing that rly fucking gorgeous burgundy (ambition, power and wealth) dress and look i know monica bellucci can wear anything and be beautiful but fucking hell. i mean i'm gay but i briefly questioned myself for a second there. anyway. the boat shenanigans happen and once katya goes back home and pretends she didn't almost get fucking killed, the flowers in her hair are burgundy. i mean i know we have the fruit market a bit later but the comb is what sold me on that ship. i see you katya

when she almost shoots goncharov (if we were rly in love you wouldn't have missed AAAAAAA i'm normal) she has a super pretty mix of blue hydrangea/eucalyptus in her hair. blue is the colour of control and tranquility and i thought it was very sexy of her. she still has them when sofia leaves her and i love how you can see the tears about to fall down her cheeks but she doesn't allow it. things got out of hand but she's not willing to lose control of herself in front of sofia and i think ultimately it's what fucked things up between them but i try not to think about it too hard

what DOES however keep me awake at night is that martin scorsese rly thought it was okay to have red bouquets everywhere made in the exact style of goncharov and katya's wedding in goncharov's home when andrey shows up to kill him. i mean the subtext isn't even subtext at this point it's like saying point break isn't gay but the flowers are the fucking cherry on top. andrey shoots him and he doesn't miss because he loves him and in case you're too dense to understand that here is a decadent display of red and burgundy. it is the colour of love it is the colour of violence and in their case one simply does not go without the other and i am so fucking normal about this

- 🌱 Anon

Plannon it is then! ^^ lmao always a pleasure to receive a message from you. Feels like I have a penpal in the world somewhere. Apparently in my walls though so I hope you're still comfortable in there with how cold its getting again??? (last week we were at the >20C?? Now we're back at single digits???? What happened?????).

As for my Xisuma, maybe no tugging since he has some very sensitive hair roots but flowers are always welcome! (I still think he needs a haircut though)

I agree on your interpretation of the true meaning of HC and shall immediately add it to my dictionary lmao.

Actually I haven't really thought about Skizz all that much so I'm pretty interested in some headcanons about them. I don't really see much of Skizz in general I suppose.

I say that but for some reason I had no trouble hearing this sentence (‘look bitches I got ur man now he’s my man what u gonna do bout it <3’) in his voice so.. lol.

Happy pride as well plannon! go and be your fruity little self and have fun.

FULL Dragons Rising thoughts and opinions!

PLEASE BE AWARE SPOILERS FOR EPISODES 1-10 OF DRAGONS RISING LIES AHEAD!!! If you have not watched it PLEASE be aware that the following contains both massive and minor spoilers for the entire plot of part 1, if you haven’t seen the full thing and wish to go in without spoilers I HEAVILY recommend you save this for later. I put this message here for those who do not have the spoiler tags filtered.

so… new ninjago show! So far? Absolutely love it. It’s shaping up to be interesting and… …well written??! I really enjoyed It, especially the characterization. Sooo good. No concrete opinions on the overarching plot yet, since.. it isn’t out… BUT I do think it’s shaping up to be pretty great.

Now without further ado-

1: Characters

1.1: Arin

I’d say I enjoy him! I do like how he’s portrayed as giddy and all ready to learn, his dream basically just came true and it’s great. Man hyper fixated so much that he taught himself an ancient art style and like yeah that tracks.

I like his design - you can tell he’s had a rough life by the dirt on his shirt and the scratch marks on his face, but he tries not to give up hope or let it get to him too much. I also like how he has a haircut commonly associated with black people and they kept the theme by also having that one line about a haircut he tried to get reference Zane’s, since Zane also has a haircut commonly used by black people. Nice lil way of alluding to a potentially POC character while still using the Lego skin tones.

His little moments where he lets his struggles get the best of him and showcases how his life these past few years have also impacted him for not just the better but also worse - they’re great. Nice way of balancing his character and personality with his experiences while not losing the charm. Things like him being all self deprecating sometimes, or how he felt seen when people looked up to him - they’re great. Not as much as I’d like, but i get the feeling that while this part was more focused on Sora and her backstory, the next might be more centered around Arin.

On a more personal note - while I think he’s great and has potential, I dunno if he’s really my thing. I don’t hate him, I actually like him, just not as much as some other characters right now. I think he needs some time to grow on me, or it’s just not my thing. Either way, he’s cool. Also I love how he just slaps his medallion on his face when he gets second place… it’s so dramatic-

1.2: Sora

aaaa trans kitty cat girl my beloveddd she’s just ugghhhh I love her so much. Probably one of my favorite new characters. I liked her but was scared they’d go too far with the generic big sister trope and she’d never get any deeper than that but boy I’m glad I was wrong.

I love her design. The whites and blues a pinks? Really glad they didn’t just go for a full color again, it makes her more distinct! I also love the prosthetic arm SO MUCH. Rare to see any sort of disability rep in media. Even rarer to see prosthetics. (Also yes ik it’s possible it’s just like armor or smthn but given the way it moves I’m like 99% sure it’s a prosthetic, plus I could be wrong but It looks a lot like she has it off during the scene where Lloyd wakes them up, since you can’t see her gold/prosthetic arm where it would usually be. Only going based off of pictures and memory here tho so.) < — haaaahaaaa yeah so uh future Cookie here, wrote that part before the statement came out..yeah that aged poorly. Look maybe they said it’s armor but I REFUSE to accept it that is a prosthetic to me. My mind has engrained it as a prosthetic meaning I couldn't change my mind even if I tried. Leaving that part in tho for histories sake. - Also, the Japanese cat girl is such a vibe. I love how I was right with the blue scrunchie in my art of her.,The power of character design.

I loved her story so much. She was just a kid with a love for technology and making the world a better place, she got offered what she thought was her dream job only to realize the cruel truth she’d likely been ignoring, in such a traumatizing way by the person she looked up to. She got shunned not only socially but by her own parents, being told she was a horrible person for prioritizing the dragons life over her cities energy and questioning the dictatorship. She grew to hate her home and fled and made a life for herself. I love her lil deadname tease, I love how she feels towards her powers and how she feels like she isn’t all that Lloyd thinks she is, how she clearly has issues and also her personality. Her siblings energy with Arin is so good. I love when Lloyd and Arin doubt who’s side they’re on too. I like how she doesn’t learn to control her powers like some ex machina when it’s needed on her own. She tries her hardest but fails and instead of constantly letting that get her down she still tries to fight without them, even if it doesn’t always go well. Dhdhfjdjs I could rant all day.

So uhh yeah i love her. Kitty cat girl. I really like the duality between her and Arin but also the stuff they have in common like sndhdhsben. I mean it should be obvious I like her. She’s in my title thingymajig and I made art for her. But still. Hdjdjdhdh I LOVB HER.

Also this isn’t part of my analysis but when she gets fake IDs if you translate the ninjagan on her card it reads “Sora Surname” as a placeholder and I think it’d be hilarious if we just started using that as her last name tag since this community is obsessed with them. Sora Surname. It’d be so funny. Please tag your posts Sora Surname.

1.3: Euphrasia

So like when dragons rising first released I saw quite a few peoples hating on this girl and imo I actually really like her. I feel like the hate is sort of unfounded but I’ll get into that later.

I like her!! I like the idea of her being a cloud kingdom monk, i like the new cloud kingdom designs, I like that FINALLY girls seem to exist there, and her wanting to ignore and hide her powers because she’s happy where she is and she doesn’t want to lose it. Side note, I do prefer this cloud kingdom, I feel like it leaves more room. Like if someone doesn’t like the idea that they write destiny at all they can just.. chose to see them as a sort of religious group who doesn’t actually write fate, and then if you like the idea that they can control some amount of destiny you can say that they do have control over some parts of it, but that they simply can’t control everything and in the end it’s not only up to them but also the people of the world if the prophecies come true or not (personally I like to think that’s how it is/is implied) or that they COULD control destiny but can’t anymore after the merge. Idk you can stretch it more and I like that. So much better than the old cloud kingdom imo.

Back to Euphrasia, I do like her story and the little we see of her. I’m not actually bothered by the fact that she only appears in one episode. I’ve seen people complaining about it but come on guys, we literally only have ten episodes, would you have preferred that she randomly pops into imperium when she has no logical way of getting there and that’s where like every single other episode takes place?? There physically wasn’t anywhere else she would have appeared after episode 5 unless you made her join Sora and Arin, which not only would you need to lengthen the plot to develop her as a character with interactions since they JUST met, but also it’s refreshing to have a new EM who isn’t one of the new MCs.

the OTHER reason I see people hate her is because of Morro. Obviously, she’s the new master of wind, meaning Morro is dead, and his element went back to the cycle and found a new host. So people are upset.

guys. Guys we literally knew this. We’ve known he was dead since like 2015. We’ve known he moved on to the departed realm since 2016. We’ve known that the wind element has gone back to the cycle and found a new host for YEARS. That doesn’t mean Morro suddenly doesn’t exist. He just doesn’t have his element anymore. He could still appear in the new series, and even if he doesn’t I’m honestly ok with that. His arc is done and i get the feeling he’d go out of his way to avoid the ninja after the merge anyway. It isn’t Euphrasia fault, stop hating on her D:

I don’t have much else to say about her yet. I loved her story and moments and design and vibe and everything but there isn’t much else to talk about bc of the smol screen time amount, so yeah.

1.4: Wyldfyre

Silly wolf-raised-girl-trope-with-a-dragon-twist. I love her so much. Not sure I’d call her one of my favs yet (uuugh they’re all my favs… sobs..) only bc we didn’t see much of her character interactions n stuff.

Her design is so pretty. The colors make her look like a Qilin to me which I love so much.

I do like how she’s knowledgeable enough with humans to be able to interact with the rest of the cast while still keeping her draconic behaviors or knowledge that she gained by being raised around them. I think it’s a nice little limbo and I feel like we’re gonna see at least one identity crisis from her now that she’s in the group.

I’m usually not much of a fan of these types of characters but I actually really like her and I’m excited to see where they go with her. Plus, her powers and the lighting they give off are so pretty.

1.5: Lobbo

I had to include him. Look at him. I CALLED IT. I TOLD YOU ALL, ALL THE WAY BACK IN THE TRAILER DAYS I POINTED OUT LOBBOS MECH. I SAID I LOVED HIM ALREADY AND I WAS RIGHT. TAKE THAT INTERNET!! I unironically love him he’s so funny nobody understands him he’s just THERE with parental and relationship struggles and it’s just so funny to me. Little silly orb man. Now onto the villains!

1.6: Empress Beatrix

So I like… love her design, it’s so menacing and I think she’s so awesome looking. Super gender too. I find her weird rules funny but also sometimes I want to punch her in the face. Like.. why did she get so mad about Rapton being incompetent, but then.. fire Ras… who didn’t really do anything wrong except for fail that ONE time.. instead of Rapton.. who physically isn’t competent whatsoever?? Like I don’t get it?? It felt so random. Maybe it’s some form of her wanting to feel superior and in control so she got rid of Ras as a statement. But then… why not also fire Rapton, who thinks highly of himself bc of the position you gave him?.. I dunno I don’t get it maybe they’ll tell us in part 2.

1.7: Lord Ras

Ah yes, the guy people seem to really like. I’ll be honest, I don’t get the appeal?? Like his design feels out of place, which I guess is intentional but I just.. don’t really like the look of the awkward head mold. It’s a personal thing ig. His personality is just kind of boring to me and we don’t know anything else about him because he’s that scary bad guy general except oh wait he screwed up once and got thrown in prison!! Like I don’t get it?? Look guys he’s not even that attractive. I might be aroace but even I can tell that much. It’s the voice isn’t it. Y’all are simping for the voice smh /lh

I guess his whole “plan” thing is a bit interesting but even that isn’t something I’m too interested. I kinda just found him pretty boring and I felt disinterested whenever he showed up.

like in the last few episodes it felt like they were trying to make us feel bad for him with the way the empress treated him but like, they don’t give us anything to feel bad for?? I dunno the whole thing felt awkward and clunky.

Maybe my opinions will change in part 2 where we’re probably gonna find out more about him, but until then, meh.

also I want to punch him in the face sometimes. I dunno he’s just being all th e r e and boring and so I want to punch him and get him off of the screen because it’s like an annoying type of boring. Yk like an annoying torturous silence. But boring. Yeah that. No offense I don’t hate him I just want to punch him off of my screen.

1.8: Rapton

Silly goofy guy. I’ll be honest I found his incompetence a bit.. annoying? Like I get he’s supposed to be comic relief but like it doesn’t feel right sometimes?? It’s just a personal thing ig. I feel like having some comic relief villains is ok but imperium just has too much comic relief in their villain roster?? Like Ras and Beatrix are pretty much the only capable ones in a fight. Ras got chucked in prison and barely shows up or does much, and Beatrix still has comic relief elements in her ridiculous laws and such. LaRow could count but shes not really a competent fighter since she cowers and nopes out the second Arin tries to fight her. I feel like it just.doesn’t work with imperiums vibe having rapton as a general, and honestly i didn’t find his jokes funny (but ofc humor is subjective). I don’t dislike him, I just don’t really care about him. I want to punch him in the face whenever he shows up but out of annoyance.

1.9: Dr. LaRow

She shows up and I want to punch her but this time out of malice and hatred. She’s a good villain and I like how they handled her but I physically can not feel anything but spite for this woman and I love that. Great villain. Hate her with every fiber of my being which is how it should be.

1.10: Dorama

I don’t have much to say about him asides from that the magician vibes are fun and that I want to punch him in the face for his attitude towards living beings.

… apparently I really feel like punching all of them. Huh. I swear I’m not like this usually I dunno something about all these villains is just punchable.

2: Interactions

Honestly? I’d say the interactions in this show were great. Sora and Arin are great foils to each other and best buds. My only thing is I hope the show doesn’t try to push a ship (I’ve seen people complain about shipping them and while I see their dynamic in a platonic familial sense I have nothing against people shipping them romantically atm since we don’t know of anything that’d make it problematic, I just don’t think it should be forced in canon) but I choose to be hopeful and say it probably won’t. Lloyds interactions with his new students are amazing and so funny srfvjrtfjer Lloyds really gone from the guy who didn’t know what a VCR was to the guy who probably still doesn’t know what a VCR is (somehow) but has now adopted two strays and needs to pretend to know what a VCR is. It’s so funny. The sibling bicker between Lloyd, Kai and Nya was ok, I guess? Never cared much for the RGB sibling idea… Iknowww shame on me but uh was it just me or did the interactions feel a bit… forced? I dunno, something about it just felt off. Was it just me or did anyone else feel like that?? Also Soras interactions with Dr. LaRow and Rapton… so good… Overall I like the interactions even if the ones between the ninja felt a bit forced.

3: Writing & plot

So I enjoyed the writing.. specifically the characters dialogue and such. I think this season has some really good balance between dialogue and characters. I liked the pacing a lot up until the imperium episodes. I don’t have a problem with them on their own - I liked the conflict it sparked and the stakes and seeing Sora’s backstory, but I also felt like it dragged on too much?? Like Sora kept escaping and then getting captured and then escaping and then going back like it felt really backtracky and it kind of messed with the consistency and the pacing, yk?? Also the battle with the protacs definitely felt like the writers were trying to stall or smthn. Idk.

Also, did Zane popping up feel.. unnecessary and rushed to anybody else?? Like the IDEA was awesome and cool, things were great up until they opened the pod.. then Zane pops up and he doesn't really do anything except for immediately become a generic background exposition tool, he barely even interacts with Kai and Nya. Having him there felt so… unnecessary? He doesn’t DO anything. You could get rid of him and just give them another way of activating the monastery and it’d change nothing. Plus it’s NOT explained and he’s just so… unemotional and “whatever” about it that it just… feels so unnatural?? Idk I can’t explain it. Maybe it’s just me not liking how they seem to be reverting to making Zane more of a robotic exposition tool like after s4. I don’t like it. You could’ve just left him to part 2 though.

I’ve seen ppl complain about the “retcons” with Lloyd saying he trained under Master Wu for years and being shown as a child, but like, they’re not really retcons…? From what I remember they never give us any sort of specifics towards the timeframe in which S1-S2 takes place outside of S2 taking place only a few weeks after the S1 finale, but that doesn’t really apply to the ENTIRE season. It’s not Impossible that the events we see all take place over the course of a few years, since most of the episodes aren’t connected to each other beyond the overarching plot. And nothing ever said that Wu didn’t train Lloyd. What we see isn’t the only training that took place. Maybe I forgot something important that says otherwise, but the idea that S1-2 took place in only a few weeks/months is completely fan made, meaning it wasn’t a retcon. Sure, maybe it seems weird, but it’s never been stated otherwise. Now, if it IS a retcon, I’m not complaining for one. Why, you might ask? Because them using child Lloyd and saying he trained under Master Wu for years might mean we can FINALLY be rid of the Tomorrows tea confusion!! We could have him grow up naturally, or age him up and clarify and elaborate on how it works, we could FIX the entire stupid argument that has been going on for YEARS. I for one am ecstatic at that possibility. Also, it means we might get additional context and stuff for S1-S2, which sounds fun ,so honestly I have no problem with it. There have been worse plot holes/retcons *glares at Nyad from across the room*

I can’t say much about the overarching plot yet, since obviously it isn’t out, but it’s shaping up to be pretty exciting!

4: Worldbuilding

I feel like I can’t judge this TOO much considering the nature of part 1. I absolutely loved the crossroads and the mix of different cultures, real splatsville vibes, but I do feel like we should get to see more of how the other realms are doing. Imperium felt a bit.. strange? Like it’s just a massive city of humans right?? I don’t really get why it had to be an entire separate realm, I think it should’ve been more unique on like a larger scale. I dunno though. Honestly there wasn’t much worldbuilding in this part, so I hope we get more soon.

5: Visual design & animation

Okay so this new series is BEAUTIFUL. The colors and the backgrounds are so much more vibrant, the lighting is so pretty, the environments are amazing, they kept the wild brain clothing textures and just uuuugh I love it so muchychxhazjchcjdiwhthfs the animation felt very expressive and ueuahahehfhdsj I have no words props to wildbrain and the animators/artists. It’s so pretty.

Overall this part was great and I’m really excited to see what comes next!!

also uh on a side note this post took me *checks date* uhh 2… 2 weeks.. y e a h. So uh. Enjoy.

[anantaru]

HELLO this is aventurine spanking anon

Thank you for engaging in furious thirst for him with me =v= I have never fallen for a character so fast. My jades are doomed. He is so handsome. His cute lil haircut aaaa

I hope you are having a good day Yoru!!! Always makes me happy to see you on the dash o//

omg no worries love 💖 i adored your asks AND YOU'RE SO RIGHT LIKE THIS MAN IS SO HOT AND HANDSOME AND 😫😫😫🫨🫨🫨💖 and i hope you're doing good as well love, thank you so much for sending me asks and being here🧚🏻‍♀��

[snufflepup]

Hm, they sound interesting. I've never heard of them before lol, like when you talked about tablet ice-cream. That of which I actually haven't tried yet cause my mom won't take me to the store :P. Oof, maybe if I can ever come to the UK and we can meet up, then that could be a thing we can do together^^. I enjoyed it a good bit for something live action, and I remember finding a good couple of the guys hot lol. What's your favorite studio ghibli movie? Mines always been spirited away and totoro. Though I liked ponyo a lot too. I've only seen the more popular movies from them, but I wanna watch the other movies too really badly. That actually makes sense lol, I've never heard it said like that, but I understand how the whole power of friendship thing is actually practical in the anime now. Lol thats cute. Who was your favorite character when you watched it? I allways liked bakugou and toga. I love yanderes in different media, and shes just so cute!^^ i used to have space buns like her in 6th grade before i realized they didnt make my roundish face look good. Then i cut my hair pretty short, so i cant do it now lol. Now i go for more of the denki kinda haircut but a little wavy cause thats my hair type. Yeah! Aqua is a water goddess that he uses his last dying wish to bring down to the new magical world with him out of spite lol. Then he meets darkness (masochist yellow girl) and some magical little girl I forgot the name of but her main color is red. I like how his group is basically primary colors and he's green lol. Im actually not that into issekai anime, more so psychological or mystery ones such as tomodachi game and bungou stray dogs. Im embarrased now- im sorry i misunderstood. My little lesbian friend doesnt cuss so i just assumed you were like that too cause i mean idk if ive seen you cuss lol. m glad your day has been alright, apart from that I mean. I understand lol. I get had hearing days a lot cause of how often I have in earbuds and just get hearing fatigue. I swear a ton too lol, though guess that's mostly due to my smoldering southern charm (ゝω・) /j. But my probably most used cuss word is fuck. Or bitch, though I use that more as a word of endearment, like you're my bitch. Though you'd be a guy puppy so I can't really say that :P. Is there a name for guy puppies like there is for girls? Idk any lol. Glad you're excited about more ft content^^ what is it? More chapters to the Manga or a new season to the anime or something? I hate when my asks don't send >:(. How's your day been? I got a school band performance to get ready for tonight. (Maybe the third times a charm)

-Ike<3

Yes !! that sounds good ! (　＾▽＾) I haven't watched any of them in a while, so I'm not sure what mine would be !! I think probably Ponyo, I rewatched it so much when I was younger ! I'd like to watch all of them again really ! It can understand why people still wouldn't like it now, despite that, but nobody ever used to mention it so it used to make me feel a little . insane . I found it hard to decide on a set favourite, but, I think they were deku and uraraka !! I also really liked denki and todoroki a lot too !! aaaa the more I think about the less certain I am of who my favourites are . I love love love toga and bakugo too !!!! I don't actually think I've ever had my hair in space buns, now that I'm thinking of it. . . but I bet little you probably looked super cute ! Your current hair style sounds really nice, too ! I play as the my hero characters a lot when I play fortnite though ! I think it's a little funny to see them do all the dances and stuff fjdhkdkf ooo ! That sounds really cool ! I see I see ! Those ones are pretty cool too, I just whatever ones catch my attention to be honest !!! Don't apologise !! I understand ! I didn't mean it in bad way ^–^ That's fair ! I don't really do it all the time on here because I just . haven't but I've been told by people that they associate swearing with me lol ( and spelling things really badly . ) I'm not really sure why I get it, my guess is that it's probably the same as you, then because I wore earphones like all the time until receently. . . but now I just wear over the head-headphones ! A lot of people where I am swear a lot too, I feel like it is pretty rare to find someone that doesn't swear all the time ! I used to know people that did the same !! I don't really mind it, to be honest, so you could if you wanted ! ^–^ and not really, I think ! Maybe mutt ? It can be used for both, but a lot of people use it on boy ones so ? but it's not really used in the same way bitch is used ! Yes !!! So, currently, whats being worked on is Fairy Tail 100 year quest but he said once that's done he's going to continue Fairy Tail so I'm really really excited !!! I need to catch up with the 100 year quest anime as well, though ! Sorry this took so long . I . don't really have the words to explain but ! Have you been well ? Did your performance go alright ?

Ch 96 - Random thoughts and impressions (small spoilers)

Fangirl time

I LOVE how Lari is the one who's a blushing mess during the horse ride home. Usually the ML is flustered because of the FL's boob squish, but Lari is as affected by it. She's completely paralyzed because all her senses is focused on his solid, muscular chest HAHAHA. Surprisingly, Rupert isn't blushy or awkward about hit, he's ok with it. BUT I BET IF THE POSTIONS WERE REVERSED HE MIGHT BE REALLY BLUSHING?? haha

On a random note, I wish we got more Lari cleavage. Apparently KKP doesn't allow too much since this is the all-ages version. I think it's nice Lari has a nice chest, makes her extra soft and fluffy :3

Yup, Lari is not getting the think that Rupert likes her romantically. She's still thinking about TL1 and how he married Tory. She's not quite sure if RupeTory have a romantic inclination, but at least confirms he has no active plans of marrying Tory or anyone else right now. Interesting I WONDER WHY THAT IS LARI.

OK tory is just ridiculously creepy, just using Lari's balcony as an entrance/exit , staring at her when she's asleep and then moving on. Lari's a pretty light sleeper so she knows this has been going on. CREEPY.

THERE IS BOUND TO BE SOME COMMENTER who sees that in this time skip things are boring ("that's it"?), that Lari fixed her initial problem already and she's just idling time away passively. I will try my best to ignore the haters and not spoil HOW this is the calm before the storm... this calmness is what made it extra painful later when plot hits.

IDK what to make of the manhwa saying she's 17 soon. Is it an error? instead of a 6 month time skip, is it now 1 year and 6 months??? IDKKKKKKKKK (see my prior post)

ANYWAYS. LARI LOOKS EXTRA ELEGANT AT THE SECOND HALF OF THE CHAPTER. She's winding down for the night, drinking tea, and she looks extra mature and pretty to me. The S3 cover makes it seem she doesn't get a haircut/permanent hair style change, so maybe this is her casual hair on a cold winter day?? I also don't know what to think about this.

I like Elaine, she's cool

YES, THE DETAIL WHERE RUPERT GRABS HER HANDS AAAA I hope we get the internal monologue about that it's v cute to read

OMG THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE AMAZING. You can see the moment the light is extinguished from his eyes in those cuts. There's a subtle texture oh his cheeks/nose/hands - showing he's been out wandering out in the snow for who knows how long before he arrived at Lari's balcony.

I call it a balcony, but it's on the 1st floor. I don't know a better word for it.

HAHAH so he does flop on her bed in the novel, but it just hits differently to see him just getting nicely tucked into 'Lari's bed by Lari herself. She actually tries to kick up out with the comment of needing a bath in the novel lol. DOMESTIC LARI IM OK WITH TOO

OMG RUPERT LOOKS SO EMPTY AND DEAD INSIDE. POOR GUY IS JUST LOST AND BROKEN RN while Lari is trying to get him to open up and talk about what's wrong

LARI UR SHOCKED FACE IS JUST SO CUTE I LOVE YOU

So technically Rupert's red eyes aren't because he's been crying, but rather, they're red/baggy because of the shock/realization he has nothing left. he's completely empty, the emperor is dead, he killed him himself, yet EMPTY. NOTHING. IS HE HAPPY? no. IS HE SAD? No. EMMMPPPPTTTYYYYY

PLEASE MANHWA TEAM, GIVE US A GOOD CHAPTER 97 WITH LOTS OF EXPOSITION OF WHAT HAPPENED TO RUPERT AAAAAAA

[unlimitedbutchworks]

Hi! I'm getting married (soonish, we haven't set a date yet) to a transfemme who is early in their transition. I met them when they were 18 and j a depressed anxious socially awkward nerd and over the past like ~year I've watched them blossom into themself (it's magical). But as a tme person sometimes i feel like I'm not fit to be the main person supporting them during this journey, bc they don't have any irl tgirl/transfem friends.

Do you have any suggestions? I'm always trying to learn more about transmisogyny. I took them to get an affirming haircut by a woman I met on Lex, I help with makeup. I've been trying to help them make friends bc they still do have like, a diagnosed social phobia lol. I think it'd be good if I WASNT the main support for this stuff in many ways. And they are like 10x as confident now that they present more authentically, but it's a process. And idk. I know them rly well and love them a lot but I worry sometimes that I'm somehow hurting them or doing the wrong thing.

I know I can't do everything for them (codependency lol) but I want to be the best partner I can be. I'm always asking what they want but sometimes it's like, j figuring out as we go bc it's all new. So what would YOU want from a tme partner ig? How do you assume I could be helpful, better, etc?

Feel free not to respond if this is too much. I don't mean to be putting too much on you. I'm just trying to treat my fiance better and better each day (failing sometimes).

hello and congrats!!! first off this is so touching and aaaa. my god. anyway.

it sounds like you’re really on the right track for sure :) friends are extremely important especially for ppl in minority groups that make socializing harder, so trying to help to her get out of her shell and get to know other people is certainly a great idea; both because she deserves having something of a social group, and because like you say, trans friends can be really critical. i can’t speak with authority since I don’t know you & your situation, but it could definitely help with supporting her and whatnot; i value my transfem friends irl a lot and they’re wonderful with buoying my transition. im not sure id say you’re ‘not fit’ for it unless you dont want to be, since there’s a lot of ways to support and be there for someone’s transition. my femme is tme and she has been wonderful with my transition and helping me explore different gender stuff by helping me with womens clothes, sometimes a little makeup, and her support when im mixing things up with my presentation. she’s happy to change and play with her vocab too; when i realized i like being called pretty from time to time now she works it into when she’s teasing me or being sweet, things like that.

as far as other things id want to see in a tme partner, the willingness to look at transmisogyny and learn about it and work it over is pretty important to me; but it sounds like you’re already working on this, so just keep your mind open with a clear heart. if you make a mistake, trust that you can learn from it and move on. id also say to let her be the one to define and speak about her transition and her past as well, and not to get tripped up on gender too much; i had an ex who was a lesbian and hated hearing me talk about my past as a boy. was very unfortunate. so keep an open mind and if you don’t understand something or you’d like to understand more, try not to be too afraid to ask; I can’t speak for her exactly, but I can say i really don’t mind getting asked about gender stuff or transmisogyny since it shows that someone cares and also gives me a chance to make sure we’re on the same page. and also, while this may be a little risqué, so long as she’s not ace or something id think about making sure you touch and love on her body holistically. a lot of trans women don’t get touched like how cis and other women do, so don’t be afraid to get a little handsy if she doesn’t mind it. having our bodies be actively wanted (touching sides, thighs, etc) can be really very wonderful when we’re taught that we’re repulsive in every way that matters.

so tl;dr: getting her more friends is a great idea for a milieu of reasons! don’t walk on eggshells with transmisogyny too much, just keep an open mind and maybe think about biases sometimes but don’t let it get to your beat and beat you up over it. but I think your concern sounds like it might be a sign that you care and are gonna try, and if that’s the case then approach any issues that come up from an angle of love and i think it should buff out. anyone wanna chime in in the replies?

[pawjamas]

today was such a good day i got SO much accomplished !!! we love productivity and feeling good that we didn’t give into the problems disorders ^_^

i sent off an important document to SSI to help w/ my disability case, i went by vocational rehab and started the process with them so i can get assistance with getting employed, i helped my wife with a bunch of small errands while out and about throughout the day too, AND i got a really really cute haircut by this sweet person who i literally became friends with afterwards on discord lolol. 

we like hit it off really quick because my wife was also getting her haircut and she sat beside me in the room to get her hair washed and i was like AAAA NO don’t look i look dumb when my hair is wet and the person doing my hair was like “oh is that your partner?” and i said yeah and the person doing her hair was talking abt my wife’s pronouns making sure she was using the correct ones, and then the person doing my hair was like “Oh yeah what pronouns do you use btw?” and i was like umm mostly they/them and they were like oh :) me too! and that’s when we just like full on started talking for the entire hour or so i was there, just about everything and anything. we bonded over both being autistic too lmaoo they were really cool !! they do cosplay and sew their own clothes and both look amazing like they are rlly skilled. i gave them a tip and they gave me a friends/family discount which i thought was so sweet.. i’m going to be a regular of theirs now ! happy to find someone that i can just go regularly to for my haircut ^^

but yeah it’s been a good day so far :3 i’m going to take a nice relaxing bath now 

[microwavetoaster-selfships]

❓️ give a handful if you wanna

Ooooo!! Thank you so much for the ask! I love this one I'm so excited I got it hehe!!

❓: What’s a random fact about your self-insert that you want to share?

It's funny! Cause I love doing little random facts or thingies like these, yet when I'm prompted for it my mind just goes blank aaaa!! I just know if this was about my F/Os though I'd spill so many so quickly haha!

My insert has both the dream cars that I want to get, a Dodge Challenger and a Jeep Wrangler(one with two doors)!! Also a bit of a super extra secret fun fact, my self insert, for years, regaurdless of the media, has always had the same exact apartment layout I imagine them living in! The apartment I picture them staying in when they're in the UK(until they move in with whichever British man) is the same exact as the one I pictured them having years ago when I used to selfship with TMNT! And it's been the same all in-between!! Not much happens or takes place a lot in his apartment so it's not thought about a lot, but it's been the same nonetheless :)

My self insert is also practically just me but with a different job(and occasionally different skills that I can't acquire yet, like playing a certain instrument or such) and so my self-insert's haircut/color also changes whenever I get my changed as well!

[a-stray-wretched-dog]

i'm actually reading this so let me post my thoughts here ... when this gets completed i'll probably update this post. nobody asked for this but whatever, just if anyone wants to read this with me (like a fanfic mukbang???)

and if you're wondering. YES I DID MAKE THIS POST WHILE READING THE FANFIC (that's why i copy pasted some of the moments so i can react to them).

anyways thoughts time !!! ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ <3

title: when i saw the title i thought it was pretty intriguing, it just sounds so angsty and i don't know why but i started feeling some kind of dread just thinking about it.

summary: chills. literal chills. got me soo interested in reading the actual fic.

ok so let me get to the actual fanfic.

chapter 1. bad omens

summary: ok damn the summary is literally making me worried already ... 😭😭

But when you take a bone from a dog, it may become aggressive and do anything to get it back. The same can be said for if you take a sister from her brother.

aaaa i love that line sooo much, literally the descriptions fit akutagawa soo well ... like the dog thing and the brother thing-- it's just so good

His sister is the one thing that he will place above getting Dazai's approval.

OUCH. THAT IS BRUTAL 😭😭😭

She's prepared to let out a stream of insults, but she recognised the man in black with the atrocious haircut.

helpp .. author ... you did not with the haircut roast .. also higuchi you are so real for this

Mori tilted his head, a faked shocked expression plastered on his face. "I didn't think it mattered. Losing a singular member does not cause much harm to our organisation." Akutagawa, too overcome with rage, did not realise he was being manipulated.

OH DANG. THE MORIPULATION IS REALL WITH THIS ONE

"But look on the bright side, Akutagawa. Now there will be no one to hold you back." Gin never held him back, did she? He did make sure he wasnt too reckless while he was out on missions, to ensure he'd still be around to look after her. She was his moral compass, and kept him grounded. He supposed that, in a way, she ensured that he did not kill much anymore, but that was mostly because of the promise he made with the weretiger.

sheesh ... this is slicing my heart open

He hurries out the door, unaware of the tragedy that would soon occur.

oh no. this is bad .... 😭😭

overall thoughts for chapter 1: it's pretty short but there are more chapters anyways soo ... anyways this is really anxiety inducing and i'm just worried for akutagawa and gin the whole time, but at the same time i'm very curious on what would happen next ... ALSO WHAT IS WITH ALL THE FORESHADOWING??? I HATE IT IT'S MAKING ME SO DAMN WORRIED

chapter 2. bloodbath

summary: oh damn, this is where things get interesting

If Akutagawa's thoughts were a bit more coherent, he would have orchestrated a plan; “Get in, Grab Gin, Get out.” Unfortunately for his enemies, his mind was clouded with rage. The only thought going through his head was “revenge”. If he were to put his current “plan” into words, it would be “kill anyone in my way, get Gin, (maybe) kill everyone else”. It wasn't the best plan, was it? Especially so, considering his promise with the weretiger.But that didn't matter to him right now. Gin was the only person he cared about, and he wasn't going to let anyone take his sister from him.

damn akutagawa. damn. he's so dedicated to protecting his only family, gin 😭😭😭😭😭

The question was: why were two guards, obviously lacking in experience, armed with simple pistols protecting this organisations base on the front lines? It's like they were begging him to break in. Akutagawa had no time, nor was he in the mindset for, such suspicions.

OH UHM. UHM???? BRO I'M SO WORRIED. i swear if his current mood will be the thing that ends up hurting him or something, i'm gonna cry.

This warehouse was one of the places where Dazai trained him. This is where Dazai kicked him like three meters, causing him to spit up blood. This was where Dazai ranted about how useless Akutagawa and his ability was. This was where Dazai yelled at him for being too reckless. He began breathing heavily. However, his little PTSD moment was cut short, by a voice calling out his name.

this went from bad to worse, holy crap.

This man had Gin. And he had a gun.

NO. WHAT. WHYY. i mean i knew this was coming because of all the foreshadowing but it still makes me so .... 😭😭

The man frowned. “You really are a blade without a sheath. You could have been civil about this, talked to me. But you chose to slaughter my men. If you had tried reasoning with me, I would have considered sparing your sister. This is your fault.”

this actually reminds me of beast where atsushi tells akutagawa something similar ... ouch

“GIN!!!” he screamed, scrambling forward. The man smirked, a knife flashing from his sleeve, and he… Slits Gins Throat.

HUH. wait i didn't expect her to actually get killed??? someone tell me this isn't real. is this akutagawa's nightmare or something please i don't want this to be real

OH WAIT IT PROBABLY IS... THAT'S WHY THE FORESHADOWING WAS LITERALLY EVERYWHERE 😭😭

He climbs the stairs of his apartment building. He stops when he sees a man in black sitting outside his door, hugging his knees, drenched in blood. “Akutagawa??? Is that you????”

NO. WAIT IT'S REAL, IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED, SHE ACTUALLY DIED??? all his life he's tried to protect the people he loved and he ultimately faile- uhm anyways, akutagawa that's a really pathetic pose... have you become wea-

ok let me stop because this will finally be the shin soukoku moment i've been waiting for.

overall thoughts for chapter 2: i'm pretty sure this made me have some kind of dread ... because the way everything happened so quickly, even when i tried reading it slowly. this whole chapter i knew something bad was going to happen due to all the foreshadowing, but reading it right with my eyes and imagining how the scene would play in my head... gosh it was painful.

i just want to know what will happen next (it's probably going to be shin soukoku), and i hope things turn out better for akutagawa BECAUSE MY MAN IS TRAUMATIZED.

chapter 3. If I show my fangs will you tell me that they're cool?

summary: WOOHOO FINALLY SHIN SOUKOKU !!! i mean oh, this will be so angsty and i'm gonna cry or whatever

Akutagawa looked up at him. “I left the Port Mafia.”

woAh, that escalated quickly. i wonder what akutagawa will do after this, though ...

"Akutagawa? Are you alright in there?” For a moment, there was only silence. "I'm fine, weretiger“ he said in his usual tone of voice, but his voice was shaky, and full of guilt. As if he had done something wrong, something the weretiger wouldn't approve of, perhaps something self-destructive.

ATSUSHI YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHAT TO DO, GO COMFORT YOUR BF !!!

"Fine. Imma make some ochazuke while I wait for your coat to be done in the washing machine. I'll leave it outside and then I expect you to come out and give me an explanation.” He turned around to leave. "Thank you…” muttered Akutagawa. Atsushi's ears perked up at this rare statement. " ... WHAT did you just say to me?” “ I SAID NOTHING WERETIGER YOU'RE IMAGINING THINGS” Atsushi laughed to himself as he returned to the kitchen.

haha omg akutagawa is such a tsundere ... they're so cuteee 😭😭

“Show me your fangs weretiger.” Atsushi jumped at the sudden demand, but obliged. He opened his mouth so that his fangs were on display. He was prepared for an insult, or for Akutagawa to get up and leave. But his reaction was not what Atsushi expected. “I think they’re cool…” Akutagawa muttered. Atsushi perked up, closing his mouth and his cheeks flushed red. “Really???” Akutagawa looked away. “Forget that I said anything.”

ohh, this is what the chapter title was about ... also atsushi having fangs is so canon to me <3

Akutagawa looked down at his hands in his lap. “My sister was murdered.” Atsushi immediately leapt out of his seat and grabbed Akutagawa’s hands, attempting to comfort him. His mouth was agape in shock, wasn’t his sister an assassin? Couldn’t she have protected herself? Once Akutagawa felt Atsushi’s hands clasp his own, he looked up at the weretiger, tears brimming in his eyes. “Shit.” he thought. “Don’t let yourself appear vulnerable, Ryuunosuke.”

nah, the fact that akutagawa is still thinking about not letting his guard down ...also woohoo atsushi you are an A+ boyfriend !!

“I was so overcome with rage that someone would dare take my sister from me. I just got rid of anyone that got in my way.” He wipes at his eyes, still not meeting Atsushi’s gaze. “I’m still full of rage now, and I… hate that I didn’t get revenge on the one who killed her. I was too reckless.” Poor Akutagawa, he was really struggling at expressing how he felt. (A/N me fr)

sheesh akutagawa ... i kinda want to see him get revenge now

“Weretiger. I know how I can get revenge on my sister's murderer, and the one who organised it.” That piqued Atsushi’s interest. “How?” Akutagawa took a deep breath before he spoke. “I want to join the Detective Agency.” That took Atsushi by surprise. He sighed as he stood up, plucking his phone from his pocket. “Let me make a call.”

OH. NOW THINGS GET INTERESTING... THIS IS SUCH A COOL PLOT TWIST OH WHAT THE HELL

“Because you were the first person I thought of. And I have no one left who cares for me.” Atsushi furrowed his brow. “Shut up, I care for you.”

shin soukoku ... they're gonna make me cry what Is thIs

overall thoughts for chapter 3: i love me some shin soukoku, and the whole revenge ada plan thing sounds so cool. i just wish the best for both akutagawa and atsushi <3

chapter 4. my neck's awry and my brain's upside down

summary: ooh akutagawa joining the ada...

Alright, at least he had a chance. If he got into the agency, he’d have a chance to prove himself to Dazai! He’d get to be in a friendlier environment, and get revenge on the man who killed Gin and HIM. The only downsides would be that he’d probably be paid less, and he’d have to deal with the weretiger every day. But… maybe the second one wasn’t that bad? WAIT WHAT WAS HE THINKING? This wasn’t like him.

omg the last line 😭😭 also is this a more pros than cons thing, yeah i can't tell. but woohoo shin soukoku <33

“We should go to bed, we’ve got a long day ahead of us.” He says, pulling something from the closet. We. We. Who knew such a small pronoun could supply so much comfort? Now Akutagawa felt reassured that he wouldn’t be dealing with this alone. But still, he can’t let his guard down. Atsushi could be planning to get back at him for breaking their promise…

OMG... THE SSKK IS SSKK-ING!!! OMG AKUTAGAWA AND ATSUSHI GETTING CLOSER HERE IS EVERYTHINGGGG <3333

He coughs, his lungs screaming in pain. “Slow… down weretiger… Not everyone… can run at the pace of a tiger…”He said, taking breaks to gasp for breath. Atsushi tilted his head, momentarily confused. Akutagawa heard a sharp intake of breath from him as Atsushi remembered. His lung disease. They waited for Akutagawa to catch his breath, then they began to walk to the agency. They walked in an awkward silence, neither one of them wanting to or knowing how to start a conversation with the other.

oh nooo... the akutagawa lung disease 😭😭 i swear it ruins everything. and the awkward silence is giving me second hand-embarrassment istg, they're so real for that though.

The pair of them continued walking, and soon enough a large building came into sight. Akutagawa’s nerves grew and grew as he approached the Detective Agency building. He was ready for this. Well, mostly.

AAAHH OKAY THIS IS THE MOMENT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR MY WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE... !!!!

overall thoughts for chapter 4: it was short but i liked it, some sskk crumbs i always love.

chapter 5. importannt

this is just the author's note on the fanfic... read it if you want but it has nothing to do with the actual contents of the fic.

overall thoughts for chapter 5: dang it 😭😭😭

chapter 6. i want to feel the fire that you kept from me

summary: okok akutagawa gets to know the members of the ada... i wonder how that will go

“So, you’re even more useless then. Without the Port Mafia’s resources and men, you would’ve failed all of your missions and have died a long time ago.” Dazai’s expression was dark, his eyes void of any emotion. His demeanour had suddenly become intimidating and threatening. The Agency members were shaken by thus personality shift. Akutagawa was nervous, but it appeared that he was used to this Dazai. “Dazai-san, I’ve only failed a few missions in the four years you’ve been gone!” Akutagawa sounded desperate, like a child begging for the attention if their parent. “The keyword there is ‘few’, implying that you still failed. It seems that training you was a waste of time after all. Clearly Mori wasn’t disciplining you enough.” Dazai spoke calmly, but he sounded threatening anyway. “No! I’ve been disciplining myself, Dazai-san! Your training didn’t go to waste!” Tanizaki felt sick to his stomach. He didn’t want to think of the ‘discipline’ the Port Mafia used, or of Akutagawa ‘disciplining’ himself. Dazai spoke again. “Stop saying my name. Why do you want to join the Agency anyway?” Akutagawa was struggling to find words, and looked to Atsushi, his eyes screaming ‘help!’. Before Atsushi could say anything, Ranpo spoke up. “His sisters been killed.”

OH WOW. THIS IS SUCH AN EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTER... "Akutagawa sounded desperate, like a child begging for the attention if their parent." is so good yet so sad... omg i need to read this more this is getting good

Dazai’s demeanour returned to normal. “Gin?” he whispered, a slight hint of concern lacing his voice.Akutagawa looked to the floor. “But... how? Why?” It was clear which of the Akutagawa siblings Dazai preferred. For the first time in years, Dazai was at a loss for words. Tanizaki felt a rage bubble up within him. He couldn’t help but feel bad for Akutagawa. He didn’t know what he’d do if someone had killed Naomi. Well....He knew exactly what he’d do, but all of it was illegal.

my MY I WAS RIGHT THIS IS GETTING GOOD!!! also dazai returning to normal is so funny to me idk why. also tanizaki and naomi's relationship 😭😭

Why was his guard down in the first place? It fell the second he was let into Atsushi’s house last night. He had trusted Atsushi, that he’d protect him while he was vulnerable asleep. He cannot trust anyone. That was the first thing Dazai had told him when he joined the Port Mafia. “Do not trust anyone. Trust leads to vulnerability. Vulnerability leads to weakness. The weak have no place in the Port Mafia.” Akutagawa was jostled from his thoughts by the weretiger shuffling closet towards him. He blinked, slowly returning to reality and remembering his surroundings. There was a cup of lukewarm green tea in front of him that Tanizaki had bought for him. The aforementioned boy sat opposite Akutagawa, next to Dazai. Tanizaki wore an odd expression, like he was extremely angry and on the verge of tears. But why...?

oh my GOD why is this chapter so good... i swearr the way the characters emotions are written here is just... mmmhh !!!

Kunikida glared at Ranpo and muttered “How tactless” under his breath. Akutagawa didn’t mind. He liked how Ranpo wasn’t giving him pitiful looks like the others. Well, except for Dazai. He looked out of it, as if he was still processing what had happened. He was clearly mourning Gin. Akutagawa felt a twinge of jealousy. How could Dazai care about her and not him? He felt a sudden pang of guilt and shame. What the fuck was he thinking? His sister was DEAD, and he was still thinking of himself and proving himself to Dazai. He dug his nails into his thighs, only the fabric of the trousers he had borrowed from Atsushi stopping him from drawing blood. Noticing this, the weretiger shuffled closer, their arms touching.

SHEESH. AKUTAGAWA I CAN'T WITH YOU, DAZAI I CAN'T WITH YOU EITHER AND IT'S WEIRD BECAUSE it feels like i have to choose a side when they're both equally as bad ... yeah i don't even know anymore 😭

“Crap. And SOS message from Atsushi. He’s been taken hostage.” Akutagawa leapt to his feet. “Where. I’ll go retrieve him.” Tanizaki gave him the address, and Akutagawa quickly memorised it. He sprinted out the door, despite the strain it put on his lungs. Atsushi had saved him when he appeared on his doorstep, bloody and brooding. It was only fair that Akutagawa returned the favour now. As he left the café, he ran past Kyouka, who had just returned from an out-of-town mission.“Why was Akutagawa here?” Kyouka demanded. “Why was he muttering Atsushi’s name, and why was he sprinting out of here?” Dazai smirked, his demeanour returning to normal, although you could tell he wasn’t too happy with what he was about to say. “His entrance exam has begun.”

OH MY GOD???WHAT I LOVE THIS SO MUCH.. THIS IS THE PERFECT ENTERANCE EXAM FOR THIS KIND OF FIC AND I LOVE THAT!!! and omg akutagawa go save your bf !!! don't care about your lungs!!!

overall thoughts for chapter 6: this is definitely the best chapter so far. this is so good i need more of this actually. i literally screamed when i read this i love it so much !!!

Ok I know we adore big old round Otto…

But…can you also imagine when he first starts getting a little chunky??

Like you said when his metabolism starts to slow around 30, it’s like he wakes up one morning and all of a sudden has an ass and a belly and tits™️. And he ignores it for a while because he’s too focused on science…but brand new just starting to get chubby Doc would be so cute. The pants that hug his ass??? Tight shirts that emphasize his tummy?? Thicc thighs straining his seams a little!! Gah this man would not think about getting new clothes until like…that phat dump truck ass (❤️🥵) rips through his pants lmao.

Why do I want embarrassing things to happen to him ahhh I’m sorry he’s such a cinnamon roll and k just wanna comfort him lmao

NSNSKSKK ANON YOU READ MY MIND AAAAAAA

Look, we all know that R O U N D doc is a vibe, but like ????? Lil, gettin chubby doc tho?? TOO MUCH TO DISCUSS AAAA 😭✋🏻

Especially around like a potential love interest reader, who may or may not be down with the thickness 👀😏😏 those tight tight button downs holding on for dear life across his chest and perfectly rounded out over his fledgling tummy. Reader is mesmerized, and the doc feels encouraged!! But not for the reasons he thinks he is 😅

Reader means no harm with it btw. I mean... Slightly chubby doc may be your first time seeing him after all, so you wouldn't know that he doesn't realize he's getting kinda tubby 😅😪

I know that's like some kinky stuff up there tbh 👁️ but also, mid key why does that sound correct. Like... I'm sorry Marvel but this man cannot have that haircut and also have God tier taste in men's fashion and fitting. The doc strikes me as the type of guy who assumes that like tight = well fitted and if you're checking him out, he must be right! Right?

Besides, he honestly was never planning on putting on that much weight. Just enough that he wouldn't be complete and utter skin and bone. So, why bother getting a new wardrobe? He's not going to need it lol.

Except... Wrong 💀

You know how you never notice slow changes until one day someone either points it out or it just slaps you in the face after a long look in the mirror? That how it is for the doc. He either takes that long look and realizes... Damn, where did this gut come from?? What happened to his skinny boy abs????

Or he has the misfortune of pushing that one old garment of clothing too far until it gets ripped 💀

This is also the start of his stretch mark collection and new found insecurities. You mention he kind of just wakes up to realize the soft spots he's developing, but imagine how he'd feel to spot those first fresh red and purple scars.

He'd probably be pretty freaked out, especially if we go with the HC of him being super scrawny up until now... He's never had them before! 😭😭 And so begins the era of wearing loose, long sleeve everything 😪

...Maybe reader can strike up a romance with him and help him out with those insecurities of his 😏

[coffebits]

So I was and was curious.... I read you have OC characters? I just haven't seen them but then again I haven't looked very far lol

I do 👁👁 I just don’t post about them much here aaa (I think I have like three posts about my ocs(?) like (￣▽￣*)ゞ I do that mainly on Instagram fsr but since you asked, I’ll post some stuff I have of them and tell you a bit about them :D. (here’s my Nautolan oc too in case you want to see him ~)

The cute black haired guy is Arthur with his triplet siblings: Anthony, Alistair (aka Stear) and Abigail (aka Abby). I would say he’s kind of my main oc (?)

The one standing right next to him with a headband is Lloyd (some call him Jack). Arthur’s best friend (or partner in crime, same thing lol)

White haired guy with glasses (he’s albino) is Harry. I’ve posted about him before

Right next to him is Alicia kinda sad :c

Long haired girl is Makenna (she’s Lloyd’s big sister)

Guy being friend zoned by her is Nathan (lol sorry my guy)

The bigger gray drawing is also Nathan, next to him is Lloyd and some random doodles

Lloyd and Makenna ~

This ocs still don’t have a name fsr aaaa I like them a lot and I’ve drawn them several times but I just can’t find the perfect name ;;; (except for Arthur in the top right corner, he used to have a different haircut)

Harry~

Arthur but a bit older~

Makenna on the left and both Makenna and Nathan on the right (also “Gato”, Makenna’s crocodile lol. It means cat in Spanish and it’s pronounced also in Spanish)

Alicia and Arthur ❤️. The wind just destroyed their umbrella lol.

That’s it for now (?) aaaa, Tysm for asking ;;;<3 I love talking about them 💖 any questions you all have, feel free to ask 💖

All 4 of them have crossdress designs. Take a guess why

The one i havent drawn yet but is the worst/ best idea
