#i'm just happy that you want to go hahah some people would maybe find it childish or something but you like it too which i love ♥

[juminies]

Don't know if you've ever talked on this subject or not, but what's your interpretation on Jumin's relationship with Jaehee after her good ending? Really love how mindfully you explain Jumin's feelings and actions, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter! Especially bc her route kinda leaves many people feeling like he's an antagonist of sorts 😬 But I kinda always felt like he'd respect her a lot, especially once he sees how much passion she puts into her dream? And Jaehee shows her genuine care for Jumin, too, moreso after his infamous crash. I'm kinda babbling here, but yeah! Really curious to read up on your interpretation <3

I haven't talked about this before actually—I think there's a lotttt of nuance to it and I didn't want to be haphazard with it in case it comes across as me being over lenient with corporate heirs or whatever hahah. I promise I'm not! I just love Jumin. Also sorry this took me a while to answer, I had actually just started a game the day you sent it with the intention of doing Jaehee's route so I decided I would play before responding to ensure it was fresh in my mind. I hadn't played her route in so long, and I wanted to get the Jumin outgoing calls too!

To get into how I think he would treat her after some time passes I first want to discuss their dynamic in her route a bit, because I honestly think people are unnecessarily harsh on him because of it sometimes. I personally don't feel as if they pushed him too far into an antagonistic role, but perhaps since Cheritz weren't bringing in an outsider (à la Echo Girl or Sarah Choi) to act as the driving force it seemed that way to some people? It was inevitable given the nature of Jaehee's struggles that Jumin would be viewed as the bad guy in a sense, but I feel like it's often sort of blown out of proportion due to a misunderstanding of both Jumin's intentions and his character as a whole. He is admittedly at his worst in Jaehee's route, but people tend to brush his actions during it off as completely out of line and absurd and then go on to use it to totally mischaracterise him as someone who doesn't value his employees whatsoever or is an abusive boss. In reality though, the way he acts as a superior in general as well as given the specific circumstances is very... Jumin? in that it's logical and efficient and goal-driven. Jaehee's route is such a push and pull in the sense that the two of them clash repeatedly in a scenario where neither person is willing to compromise—for what, to each of them personally, is good reason! Jaehee is a victim of a wider system, of capitalism itself, less so than of Jumin as an individual.

On one hand, Jaehee having to give up a project she was finally actually enjoying working on would be incredibly frustrating, even without having something she actively dislikes stacked on top of it. I get why she went against Jumin's wishes of doing a bad job (why would she choose now of all times to put in half of her effort when it's something she's actually having fun with?) and I get why she used Seven's cat hotel proposal. Life can be messy like that. Sometimes you have to make a decision that has a shitty outcome for someone else for your own sake or vice versa. She should be doing something that makes her happy, and had she not gotten the encouragement to find something she loves she would have continued to feel unfulfilled for god knows how long. Plus, in regard to the coffee report she is still technically doing her job and doing it well, even if going against her boss' personal wishes in doing so. She also does use her own time to revise it in the end so Jumin can have his way (and maybe a little bit so she can use her ideas for her own place) so, to me, that says she understands where he's coming from and doesn't particularly resent him. It's a complex situation for sure, and objectively Jumin does have the upper hand even if he doesn't quite realise the extent of it. I absolutely support Jaehee in her endeavours; I love her so much and she absolutely deserves better than eternal C&R bullshit.

At the same time, Jumin's perspective does make sense if you try to understand his worldview a bit more. Jaehee is the only person at C&R he feels he can genuinely rely on, and when he's already been thrown through a loop with his father prior to her disobedience it's entirely logical that he would feel as if everyone who should be working with him is suddenly against him. Jumin has been shown before to not quite have a grasp on the social standing he holds over Jaehee, for example in this chat from deep story day 2 where he doesn't understand why she can't tell him, as he told her, that she doesn't like seeing him in chatrooms.

And I think it's genuine obliviousness as opposed to purposeful ignorance; he overlooks bigger structures at play because he legitimately values hearing the honest opinions of the people around him and expects them to have a mutual respect for him. As far as Jumin is concerned his employees should be able to come to him with honest feedback, but of course that typically isn't the case and so Jaehee can't express how she really feels to him lest she face consequences. Jumin's thought process when it comes to employment is shown to be, to put it simply, people work for money -> more work is more money -> more work is good, and it hasn't been explained to him why this isn't the case for a lot of people. Jaehee's actions register to Jumin as is simply a betrayal of his trust and respect, because he doesn't quite see the level at which he and Jaehee are on unequal footing in the first place. On top of that he is rigid in that he needs everything to be done as he expects it; he does not like sudden change and (as demonstrated in his own route) can be incredibly rattled by it if he is already otherwise stressed or overworked. Just because he stands strong for his friends does not mean he is entirely invulnerable to being overwhelmed and acting out, and while I completely agree he was on some level being selfish in regards to the cat project, at the point where Jaehee quits she has already left him with what (to Jumin) is a mess to handle essentially on his own. He is overworked too, something Jaehee admits herself, and he wanted to transfer the coffee project to another department both to make less work for the two of them and in order to not succumb to his father's lack of consideration for anyone or anything but his current partner.

Again I do not blame Jaehee for anything she did whatsoever—I think it was a good idea for her to quit and she absolutely deserves the happiness she finds in MC and their café!—but Jaehee is incredibly competent and Jumin knows that. Consequently he knows she has big boots to fill and it can't be done on a whim. I'm sure you can see why he would be incredibly frustrated. As a whole it's just a very messy situation where the two of them can't really fathom the other's perspective. Their lives and outlooks on the world are so intrinsically different at this turning point in Jaehee's life, and that's fine. Neither of them have bad intentions towards the other whatsoever.

Now to actually answer your question! Firstly I want to put out there that he says this on days nine and ten respectively:

Then I want to add that I do not think Jumin is the type to hold a grudge. He is shown frequently to take on a sort of each to their own/whatever will be will be attitude, and though this situation is something that impacts him directly I can't imagine him taking it any more personally in the long term than he would anything else. Sure he's a little hostile in her AE, but to be completely honest with you I do not think he would have gone to visit the café at all if he was completely furious and had lost all respect for Jaehee (and/or MC) after her endeavours. Again he knows that Jaehee is highly capable, hardworking, and generally a very good person, and I can't imagine that one rocky dilemma between the two of them is something that would make him bad tempered around her forever. He still clearly held her highly and has a lot of respect for her despite their differences, and she doesn't seem to have any ill will towards him either. Ultimately, as you say, he would grow to respect her passion and would hear her out on why she took the course of action she did in the end. While Jumin may not be great at putting himself in others shoes he can identify patterns well, and it lets him draw parallels between his own experiences and other people's. Once he finds the common ground (he knows how fulfilling passion projects can be, he knows how frustrating it can be to work yourself to the bone for others' sake without any real incentive, and he values real friendship an awful amount) I think he would accept it.

I actually feel like hypothetically in the long term not working together would be good for their relationship in terms of RFA too—Jaehee was only made part of the group originally because of Jumin and it meant that all of their interactions even amongst their mutual friends were that of a work relationship. We know they both dislike being in chatrooms together and dislike hearing each other talk outside of work, which was bound to have put a strain (even if very minor) on their association with RFA as an organisation. Jaehee even says herself it's like an extension of C&R for her! Dropping the working boundary between them means less tiptoeing around each other and more openness among friends, especially for Jaehee.

As for Yoosung becoming Jumin's intern/assistant, I don't think it would carry the same tone into RFA as it did with Jaehee since they are already well associated without the business relationship prior to Yoosung being hired. Sure things might be a little weird at times, but no discomfort or frustration to the same extent. It's already shown to be kind of unserious and silly, and I honestly don't think Yoosung would last long as Jumin's assistant anyway, lol.

Ok now that we know what kind of people trickster likes, can we also know how would she react if she’s in love?? 🥰

Oooohh boy here we go again.. Alrighty then! Buckle up Anon! This is going to be a complicated one because Trickster is a very complicated character to understand

💚 first she will think that the person is very interesting and intriguing leading to her approaching them and asking them if they want to be friends with them! Nothing new there..

"Hey there~! Sorry to bother you but I can't help but notice that you're alone right now, would you mind it if I keep you company for a while?"

💚 then the second will lead to her craving more for their attention and admiration which makes her annoying to them but she'll just find it amusing.

"hahah! Ok, ok, I'm sorry. It's just funny how grumpy you can easily get~! It's.. actually really cute."

💚 and third she still won't think anything about it at first because fun fact for trickster she can't distinguish between liking someone romantically and platonically, she has a lot of people asking her out, confessing and asking to be their significant other in the past.. but she never really accepts them. She maybe a mischievous psychopath but she actually genuinely cares for people she interacts with! And she would feel disgusted of herself if she accepts a commitment that she wouldn't really be participating because she doesn't even know how these things work! But those people who did confess their love to her will always hold a special place in her heart... so that's why she killed them (literally)

💚 but when time past and she started feeling some strange feelings like that, she will starts getting confused and will be more flustered around them, timid even. She will just became a mumbling and a stuttering mess, not in a shy and cute way but more like a really messy mulfucntioning human being that says some pretty random and dumb stuff. She will also feel like she has the need to protect them while also being so possessive and clingy towards them.

"what? You're already leaving? Aww come on! It's not even that late.. plus, even if it is.. it wouldn't hurt to stay a little bit longer right? .."

💚 give this a little more time and she'll turn from a blushing mess to a romantic gentleman that always gives you flowers, gifts and compliments <3

💚 will probably tease you from time to time too but will also get flustered when you tease or flirt back heh~

💚 but overall, whatever she ends up acting her expressionless smile and mischievous personality will remains the same.

💚 she will also starts showing her true self little by little, being which: a little rough, unhinged, very obsessive and would not be afraid to do whatever it takes to make you happy staying by her side... And whether the person like it or not, one thing is for sure.. they will never get rid of trickster.

"You're not getting tired of me are you? ... heh well it doesn't really matter. It's not going to keep me away from you."

- and when she finally realized that she's in love with you... Well.. let's just say.. your her's now~ <3

"God, look what you've done to me.. this wasn't supposed to happen- I didn't want any of these to happen.... but it did.. and you're going to take responsibility for it.. won't you..?"

----

Yeah.. so basically like a yandere but what did you expect?? It's trickster! The chick's mentally unstable ಠ⁠ᴥ⁠ಠ

[mor-and-more]

Idk I feel too anxious to Yell At Friends About Creature Lore anymore so Fucket We Ball

Today's creature issssss... Well, me

Or more precisely, my recreation as a cat

Because I got to the Endwalker of Endwalker fame (...yes the namesake quest of the expac hahah) for the 5th time yesterday, and. I Had Thoughts

To begin with, I'm a very unreactive fucker when I'm focused on a goal. So most of my reaction to the Scions sacrificing themselves one by one would be "comfort The Child (Alisaie), carry on". Because that was exactly what I were missing. A chance to just give her a little half-hug and remind that they are by our side

And when it came the twins' turn to do the Heroic Sacrifice(tm) I know that my reaction would be "understood", but. I'd be genuinely surprised and anxious to hear they'd wish for me to find happiness at journey's end. Because even on this side of the screen I immediately started panicked thinking on the topic of "do I even know what is happiness??? Do I Even Know How It Feels???"

Also fifth time I did it, and I still don't recognise most of the Voices From Past. Only if I remember the phrase itself (like Merlwyb's) or with some I kinda guessed, but. Yeah I suck at voice recognition (play clips of Emet-Selch and Zenos talking about something side by side, and I wouldn't be able to tell who is who unless one goes into "this was our beautiful world" and the other into "my friend, my enemy" rants) and don't really remember the phrases themselves

...also I know I would again promise to Emet-Selch to remember them as he'd be disappearing, hahah. Because this is what I told him into the screen, so yeah I'd absolutely say it in person, too

Also. I would totally at least try giving headpats to the Meteion at the Necropolis. Because that poor baby bird couldn't have been well finding the place like this... Aaaand then Alphy repeats what I were thinking then in their talk with her before dissipating, haha

Yes it's not "my" baby bird, but she's still a very scared confused baby bird who found herself terrifyingly lonely in an eerie place devoid of all life, that looked like fucken. Life After People documentaries, except not even animals survived. Yes I am THAT close to "accidentally dissolves itself because of love and concern for the poor baby bird", I know. I can only imagine how confused Meteion would be, haha. "I brought you here to feel despair, what is THAT?????? I'm failing so bad at my job?????" XD

...yes I also would absolutely grab "my" Meteion as a companion after all is said and done and take her on a journey to explore the beautiful Etheirys, as beautiful as ever. Thus, in a way, fulfilling Hermes's wish for her - to learn to walk, to run, to travel and meet many people, albeit not in the outer worlds, but right here. I'm just feeling so normal about the baby bird. I NEED to hug and protect

Also lmfao. In a way, I kinda. Went "you call me a sword in the darkness, and I've ever tried to live up to that. But in truth, I'm but a healer, so. Thancred, please take the van this time, I know you've been rearing to. EVERYONE'S going home today" before The Dead Ends

...and after the Endsinger trial, I keep chuckling to myself that a teleport half a second away from activation would drop on my head from sheer desire to Get Away From THAT GUY (Zenos). Or I'd be so fucken furious about "don't you FUCKING dare say I'm just like you, you stalker creep with unhealthy obsessions" and yeet a spell, a Carbuncle and maybe even myself into him, all at once. Depending on how angry I'd get, hahah. I'm. Not at that point yet, but if I kept going yesterday, I'd have been furious

Zenos makes me annoyed in the "this fucking guy AGAIN, just leave me alone, go die in a ditch without my involvement" way. Which places him way under the arcanists' Actual Guildmaster whom I'd turn into meat paste with my own bare hands, and even under the list of Most Puntable Lalas. I just want a restraining order and some way it'd actually restrain Zenos from showing up. I'm just TIRED and want to be left alone. If Y'shtola called him my number one fan as a joke, I'd probably cry in defeat.

Idk I'm just feeling very powerless because I can't avoid that damn instance just because it features the guy of Please Just Leave Me Alone. I deserve a cat cuddle pile back on the ship as we are travelling back home, not. This

...can you tell that I'm barely awake and extra groggy??

[namorslutfanfiction]

girl I'm down bad for tenoch, like i havent been in a long time for a male celebrity. i am obsessed!! his birthday is tomorrow!

i have so much curiosity about him (as a person, you know), like does he believe in astrology? hes such an aquarius! and because of that, the answer could be yes or no hahah

I have been practicing my spanish more nowadays; i have read almost every single tweet this man has tweeted. im currently reading his book (which is amazing!! must read for people who want to know more about mexicos power dynamics, racism, colorism! very enlightening; as a latina myself, i could swap mexico to my countrys name and it would fit perfectly) (also he is very articulated, intelligent and funny! such an easy-going read besides the theme).

whats his favorite book? what kind of songs he listens to? share your spotify account with me tenoch!!

whats his comfort food? whats his WhatsApp profile picture? is it from a professional shoot or a selfie he took on his phone? did he cave in and bought an iphone? did he have pets growing up? whos taking care of his plants back home?

does he have a nickname? maybe 'Té', or 'Noche'? or is it something that has nothing in common with his name (my family nickname is completely different from my given name)?

and so on so on!! i need ANSWERS!! necesito tomarme un trago con el!! necesito pachequearme y hablar de la vida con este hombre!!!

Same. Like I literally found myself back on this godforsaken site after years because I needed to be able to vent about my love and obsession for this man.

Oh I would love to know his random opinions and his belief systems. I think he would find it amusing that we have looked up his astrological chart to the best of our abilities. Like he would definitely think "wow thats extensive" but he wouldn't make fun of it like some guys do.

So I know like very rudimentary Spanish that I learned because of my job. I got so often mistaken as some type of latin or hispanic person that it was easier to learn enough Spanish to get by and guests were always so understanding. "Oh she can understand us but it's hard for her to reply." I want to learn more Spanish but I don't have the time right now. I wish I could read his book but a translation isn't out yet.

As a filipino I feel like there will be a lot for me to relate to in the book considering the rampant colorism in all parts of Asia. Filipinos are often referred to as the 'Mexicans' of Asia. Which is weird but also fitting. What snippets of translation I've seen have been so interesting though.

I know he hates reggaeton with so much passion its kind of hysterical. I think I remember him mentioning one of his favorite books in an interview but I can't remember off the top of my head. I knoooow this man has all kinds of proud Latin music on his playlist. Also unabashed bangers like Selena.

He apparently has a screenshot from his whatsapp on his twitter somewhere and I think it's like a normal pic not anything professional.

DOES TENOCH HAVE PLANTS? THAT IS THE QUESTION I NEED ANSWERED BECAUSE I AM A PLANT MOM!

Did you see that interview where he was mad hungry and eating the food the interviewer bought him? I wonder if he's one of those mexican dads who is willing to try a bunch of stuff or if he's the type to always choose latin food over anything else.

I've seen some of his activist friends call him 'Noch' or 'Nochie' I also know that Diego Luna specifically calls him 'chiquitin'. And that makes me giggle because I think he smiles his stupid cute smile every time Diego calls him that.

LOL I have two first names and depending on who you are decides which one you call me. So I don't have any nicknames. Everyone would just get even more confused.

I wanna talk to him about everything, life, love, politics, bull shit, the things that make us happy, the things that make us sad. I wanna talk about our pasts, our futures, our dreams.

I want his advice. Like I bet he gives the best life advice.

thank you for the ask,

[gurokichi]

W-wow you really answer me bon, I don't expect that, but I'm very happy about it!

And sorry if I didn't send you any other ask today bon, I have to go to school so, well, you know, I can't take my phone to school.

I'm glad you understand, I was fearing that you won't know why I did that, but I'm glad to hear that you do.

And btw you said you like danganronpa so, what is your favorite character?. (Yes, I know that this question is dumb, but I want to ask this, just to make sure i guess) Mine is Chihiro Fujisaki!, I really love him.

Of course I would follow you, why wouldn't I? You are nice to me, so of course I would like to follow your blog Bon, and I know you wouldn't bite me bon, I'm not too shy anymore, I fully want to send this, you can say I have confidence now.

W-wait really?, you really would stop any anon that harass me?, a-and you think that they would like me?, I don't know if that is true but, if you are sure of that bon, then I will believe in you.

Y-you think I'm brave?, bon, you made blushing!, of course I would like to talk to you more and maybe if you want, we can be friends! ( Let it not be noticed that I want to have a friendship with you xd).

I'm glad that you understand my poor english, Spanish is my native language so, even if I know so much english, I always get nervous when I write or say something in english ( ╥﹏╥)

Wow...you...put me as a tag? And even you put ME on your anon list? I'm so happy!,nobody do that for me before, you are the first one bon!, but bon, I named my self as "unnamed anon" because... I don't know how to call myself.... Can you help me please? ( ´･ω･)

- still Unnamed anon (help this poor anon to find a name ;-;)

Of course I would answer you! How could I not when you took the time to type out an ask and send it to me? I think that'd be pretty rude of me to just leave it in my inbox.

That's totally okay. I understand if you're not able to send asks, especially if you're busy with your life. I'd appreciate it if you sent some when you have the time to, though! It's always a delight to talk to people ^^

Ah, I have so many that I like... Chihiro is definitely up there with some of my favorite characters. Despite the Kokichi theme of my blog, I also really like Toko, Makoto, and Mahiru. I think I like quite a lot of the Danganronpa cast, so this was kinda hard to answer. There's so many good choices that I couldn't just limit myself to one! Aw, that's very sweet of you. I'm happy to hear that you've gained confidence! I would definitely stop any anon who tries to be mean to you. I don't care what gets said to me, but I'd have a problem with it if something seriously mean was directed towards anyone who follows me. I don't want people fighting on my blog. All my anons have been nice; I promise you that they wouldn't hate you. Thank you for choosing to believe in me! I think it's super brave to go through with things that make you nervous. It takes quite a bit to gain the courage to do something, despite being scared. I admire anyone who is able to do that! Maybe we can be friends; I can't guarantee that, though. It'd depend on a couple of things, sorry!! </3

That makes sense! Don't worry about your English; you've done good so far. I can understand you pretty clearly. Spanish is a nice language! I used to take Spanish classes, although it's been years... so I don't think I'd be able to understand much, hahah (￣▽￣;)

I put any anon down as a tag! Perhaps you could use an emoji that you like or choose a word you wouldn't mind being called by? That's what most of my anons have done. For example... there's Doll, Prince, and then various anons that are just emojis. You can go check my tagging system to see which anons are taken!

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hi lovely! I was wondering if you have any fics where Sherlock buys John gifts? Maybe a new coat or something adorable and thoughtful? Anything really! Gift giving is my love language so would love to see it with my favourite couple!

Hey Lovely!

AHH it's mine too! I love making people happy, so it hits right, hahah :)

Ah, ones I can immediately think of:

Sibling Rivalry Or Fighting Over John Watson By Jessa7 (T, 8,085 w., 1 Ch. || Romance / Humour) – Mycroft is just as much of a genius as Sherlock is. He keeps randomly kidnapping John for chats, and the locations get better. Cue Sherlock’s younger sibling complex rearing up and jealousy ensues.

The Devil You Know by PipMer (T, 9,300 w., 1 Ch. || Jealous Sherlock, Romance, Friends to Lovers)- Mycroft flirts with John. Sherlock gets jealous. John’s just along for the ride.

Licence to Kiss by fellshish (T, 13,739 w., 4 Ch. || Post-ASIB, Sort-Of Bondlock, First Kiss, Love Confessions, Mutual Pining, Angst and Humour, Bed Sharing) – Sherlock loves John, and John loves... James Bond. He only made Sherlock watch every single film. Tedious. And now John's birthday is coming up. Sherlock can't tell him how he feels, but he can organise an amazing gift: John's very own spy adventure. Sherlock begs Mycroft for a real case with some extra gadgets. And perhaps some actors pretending to be criminals. What could possibly go wrong?

Our Enthusiasms Which Cannot Always Be Explained by withoutawish (M, 32,961 w., 1 Ch. || Christmas, Fluff and Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Post-TRF, Case Fic, Mild Gore, Sherlock Whump) – The list that is tacked haphazardly on the refrigerator of 221B reads, ‘Kidney(s), and/or a full cadaver (preferably male, late 30s, under six feet tall), bag of fresh toes, sixteen cow’s eyes (corneas retained), dual exhaust hand –held flame thrower, an unopened first edition copy of Joseph Conrad’s 'Heart of Darkness', and no less than ten abhorrently gruesome murders in the upcoming month.” The one neatly hanging next to it simply reads, “Sex.” One of these lists is not John Watson’s. If John Watson were to put what he really wanted in list form, to live in a land somewhere beyond ‘almosts' now that Sherlock Holmes has indeed returned to him, he would never be able to look his flatmate in the eye ever again.

The Wedding Garments by cwb (E, 105,390 w., 36 Ch. || PODFIC AVAILABLE || Alternate Future AU || Alternate First Meeting, Dating / Arranged Marriages, Romance, First Kiss/Time, Heavy Petting, Cuddles, POV Sherlock, Virgin Sherlock, Idiots in Love, Slow Burn / Falling in Love / Dev. Rel., Nervous/Anxious Sherlock, Jealous/Cranky Sherlock, Hiking, Vacation Homes / Honeymoon, Sherlock’s Family, Horny John/Sherlock, Patient John, Massages, Hand Jobs, Assassination Plots, Oral Sex, Case Fic, Emotional Love Making, Bath Time Fun) – This is the story of a young consulting detective who wants nothing to do with marriage and an army doctor who wants to find true love. It's 2020 post-Brexit England and the British government is encouraging arranged marriages. Candidates meet through state-run agencies and date in hopes of finding love (and tax benefits). Sherlock doesn't need or want a spouse, at least not until John Watson shows up. Hesitant to give in to his more carnal urges because of the way they derail his mind, how will Sherlock progress toward the more intimate aspects of a relationship? The answer lies in a very special wedding gift.

I know I'm missing a TONNE MORE, and I know I've read some and can't remember what they're called... so if anyone can add some more, please do, because I would love to add them here!

[postoctobrist]

hello, i'm the secret genders anon, here to clarify for the curious:

i present as a man externally, and have an above-average amount of body dysphoria (i hate that i have boobs, have trouble showering and looking at my body, wish i had a dick, the whole nine yards.) i prefer being addressed with male pronouns, being seen as a man, and so on, because that's what makes my dysphoria go away, and it makes me feel happy.

at the same time, i am completely, 100%, internally a woman. i've no desire to be feminine, and the "secretness" of this womanhood is to the point that i will likely never acknowledge it to anyone except like, maybe a romantic partner? i don't want someone to know that i'm a woman because i want them to treat me and know me as a man, so telling them i'm a woman will ruin my ability to present my gender correctly. (this is why being anonymous is great: it won't ruin my gender presentation! thanks alice for letting this happen hahah)

i can't clarify what feeling like a woman is. it feels wrong to think of myself as a man, in the same way that it would feel wrong to, like, try to bite off one of my own fingers. trying to think of myself as nonbinary is 'less' wrong, so i thought i was nonbinary for a long time, but it's not "right" either. thinking of myself as a woman just... feels good. it fits. i'm a woman, and i'm happy to think of myself as a woman. but other people thinking of myself as female feels wrong? i constantly wonder if this is internalized misogyny on some level, or like, something of the sort, but the amount of times i've switched my genders up on my friends while figuring myself out honestly makes it clear to me that it's not the fact that i'd get treated differently as a woman, because 1, i wouldnt be, and 2, if i was that wouldn't matter to me. i just don't want to be perceived as a woman, because that's not part of my gender- it makes me miserable to be a woman publicly.

also, it's lovely hearing about other people with secret genders! i hope we all find our secret/public happiness.

(sorry for stapling this to your forehead. would you prefer tape or are you too masochistic for that?)

[therhythmafterthesummer]

it's been a while rhythm!! how is everyhting??

i have yet to read some of your latest works, but life has been a little bit hard lately and i found myself missing our dearest pack 🥺 unfortunately i don't have time rn to re read my fav one shots, but this week it's being kind of a parenthesis and i can breathe a little 一some needed rest before i dive in university life again.

i've seen what other anons said about the girls gang (wereroomies, i mean) hanging out together and supporting each other. even with their hobbies, and i keep finding confort on pretty because i feel like i have so much in common with her. those asks helped me a lot because university is a lonely period, at least at the beginning and in my experience, so reading about how they enjoy their time together made me realise i have to appreciate those little moments i have with my friends (who aren't studying the same degree as me, unfortunately i don't see them as much as i would like to).

these months have made me more mature, but in a good way. i have been carrying a very heavy load for years and little by little i'm noticing how it weighs me less and less, so i'm very happy rn. i'm in that kind of mood when i want to spread that happiness with everyone (so if you're reading this, known that you're amazing and loved and you deserve so much more that you think you do ♡).

oh, i also remember one time you mentioned that one hobby that pretty has is crochet!! i started this summer haha i crochet when i'm stressed, with a nice playlist 一which reminds me of skz's comeback!! what are your fav songs?? (mine comflex and cover me 🤭).

what i wanted to ask (this is a very chaotic ask i'm sorry) is how did pack members cope with loneliness and stressful seasons in university?? especially when they felt like there was no one they could tell how they felt, if that was the case...

i know i don't interact a lot, but i missed talking to you. have a nice day/night rhythm!! ily (❤️‍🩹)

things are doing fine! i'm tired but soon i'll be on holidays so i'll be able to rest lots hopefully~

don't worry, baby. my works will be there for when you have time💜💜💜 no need to stress about that, you've got enough of that in your life.

makes me happy that you can find some comfort in the silly conversations we've got going on in this blog. i'm glad people are kind enough to send in their thoughts and we can just have some fun with them together!

good friends should really be appreciated, and it's always worth it to nurture and maintain friendships, even if it's in a sort of cactus way (as in, maybe you don't meet often, but you know you can rely on them when you need them, you know what i mean?). that's really especial, so i hope you get to enjoy it to its fullest!

yes! i like to think pretty does crochet as a hobby, she just seems like she would, for some reason??? so yes hahah. i want to include it on an actual instalment at some point. it's cool that you picked it up too, though! it's really fun imo. putting a nice playlist or some video essay on youtube while you crochet is a good way to de-stress mewhehe.

i think my fave songs from the album so far are megaverse and social path (kor ver). all of them are good, but those two have me in a chokehold for sure.

as for your question...... here's the thing. werewolves live in packs for a reason, right? so, their pack was probably the biggest support they had in moments like those. i suppose they would've tried to lean on their friends, or to try and step back for a moment to put things into perspective. engaging in activities outside of school was probably a good outlet as well (like going on wolf runs, or going for a walk), just things they could do to remind themselves that there was life outside uni, and that ultimately it wasn't a race, they were there to learn, so as long as they learnt a bit, they could take their time.

i feel like Chris particularly would've struggled a lot, considering he was living alone alone during his first and second year. i can see him making the extra effort to meet with changbin and jisung weekly (or every two weeks) to avoid lone wolf syndrome.

thank you for dropping by and leaving this message! i hope that weight you're carrying continues getting smaller and smaller💜

Hi Saint! 👋 I hope you're doing good

Ok, blimey, SN was a rollercoaster of emotions but I absolutely loved it! You write amazingly!

My thoughts. Y/N has all the right to be p*ssed off with Gojo. She has all the right to separate and live her life. She's not obliged to stick around and "fix" Gojo. But, big BUT, she had no right to keep their son from him. Was Gojo an arsehole, heck yeh. But he was really trying after the first divorce incident and nanas death. He was stupid for the house thing and not just being honest when trying to fix their relationship. I think that Y/N is going to feel like absolute shite when she finds out that Gojo tried to unalive himself when he thought she got rid of the baby. And now the accident because he realised he was alive this whole time!

Gen and their dad, wasn't a great idea to support hiding the munchkin from Gojo. Yes protect your daughter and sister, but you're making her do some silly things.

Now saying all of that, I'm going to counter myself 😅 I can somewhat get why Y/N would have wanted to get as far away from Gojo. Especially holding on the beginning part of their marriage. Then to hear his stupidity at the end would have brought up the previous thoughts. As a woman, I may do the same to protect my child (maybe not exactly the same tbh... lol I still don't like that Y/N hid this from Gojo for 3 flaming years!). I can see she was trying to protect herself and her child, but it wasn't a great way imo.

In the same way, I get Gen and why she may have supported this. As an older sister, I'm a surrogate mother to my siblings and can be protective.

Right this was too long. I'm sorry 😅 don't even know if I made any sense whatsoever.

My main ask was going to be: may I get permission to write a mini one shot type scenario based on the last chapter? I was so wound up in my emotions after reading the last chapter, I had all sorts of thoughts and ideas that I'd like to jot down and share. But only with your permission! X

hahah it’s very conflicting right ?? i love how ur analysis on it tho :) and yess you may write a oneshot as long as i get tagged <33 looking forward to it !!

I'm not blaming y/n for keeping the baby then hiding it. Yes, it is true that my heart aches because satoru didn't get to cry in joy after the baby was born, but what matters is the munchkin is alive. It would burn me more if the lil munchkin died. Besides, it was the most selfish thing y/n has done in a while. I can't hate her. Her ex-husband was a selfish cheating asshole. I understand that satoru wanted to change but, he's not that deserving to have an expressway to happy ever after. It's just karma (or saint) doing its job.

For toji, i think he won't have the audacity to cheat on y/n because of gen and the kids like hello??? But i do think mc just reminds him of his wife, that's why he wants to marry her. (This shit hurts so much because im a toji fucker)

And im sorry for sending lots of asks. I just love sn so much i cried when i didn't get on the sincerely yours taglist.

Drink your water and eat veggies saint! Every sn reader is praying to u ❤️

Y/n keeping munchkin from gojo makes so much sense to me. She just prioritised her child's health and happiness more than theirs IT WAS LITERALLY THE BEST THING TO DO IN THAT SITUATION AND PPL WHO HATE HER FOR DOING IT CLEARLY DONT KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT LIKE????? imagine a child growing up in the kind of negative publicity that surrounded gojo post the scandal... yeah no. she did the right thing definitely and I rlly hope she knows that :((

I think some people forget that soulmates who don’t end up together can fall in love with someone else. Granted the connection won’t be as deep as with their twin flame, but it’s not impossible to love again. Tbh I don’t care if gojo x uhtamie happen, Toji x y/n or gojo x y/n. I just think it’s unfair that her hiding her pregnancy is going to hunt her ten fold. I really like that she didn’t hide from munchkin who her real daddy is though. Mad respect for that.

Omg I’ve been dying to send an ask in! First off congratulations on sn1, it was amazing!! Okie, I’m sorry for all the upcoming grammar mistakes lmao, but I need to write it before I forget x.x Over the past few days I analyzed both y/n and gojo’s situation. I’ve seen how most people are upset with y/n for depriving Gojo 3 years of his sons life and thinking he “killed” his baby, and some agree that y/n made the right call faking the abortion. I was just shocked at how quick people switch sides instead of analyzing both parties. I remained neutral.

I do agree that her depriving him from the birth of his son and making him believe that he was at fault was wrong, but did the readers take a step back and think how his past consequences drove her to do it? It hurts that Gojo never got to tell his side of the story, and now with amnesia probably never will, but it also hurts knowing that y/n was treated horribly throughout most of their marriage. Yes, he had a lovely redemption arc, but the thing about Gojo and y/n is that although they’re soulmates, they’re badly flawed. He had this ideal dream family, but didn’t know the current y/n. Just bits and pieces. He was more familiar with the little girl he was best friends with, whom he made a promise too. Y/n suffered a lot the first few months in their marriage, which causes her to start having trust issues, and clearly those trust issues were still rooted just untouched. In my honest opinion, seeing as to how badly flawed they both are, if there was no divorce, munchkin would be the only thing that would tie them together. I’m sorry this was long :’) also hoped this made sense.

Also, I noticed something. You said the zenin family is y/nxToji, but everyone else is GojoxY/n. Does that mean Gen has forgiven Gojo? 😟

nooo gen hasn’t. i take back what i said. very few people in the snverse are rooting for gojoxyn 🥲

imo, I think y/n had a good enough reason to hide munchkin from Satoru. BUT y/n should have told Satoru when she had the chance, when he came to see her.

Anonymous said

Yooooooooo I sad .

Because I don’t know who’s in the wrong in the SN finale ?? Like I get each of Y/N’s and Satoru’s feelings and mistakes and whatnot, but now at what cost? While I definitely believe Satoru is much to blame for actions to Y/N, his past and how he was brought up shaped him that way, yet he was able to change; and he’s even worse for wear?? And even now Y/N, who’s suffered so much and very much doesn’t owe Satoru anything (besides telling the truth of baby Gojo), will have to go through this again???

there’s really a huge divide among the readers bc some people understand yn’s pov (like u guys in this case) while some choose to side w gojo for good reasons. but all in all, thank u for sharing ur reactions <33 it allows me to understand how people are reading into the series and i’m glad that most of my readers are still looking at this story with depth

Hi there!

Could I ask for some angst with Bi-han? Like maybe something about a big argument with an angry "I'm done" to his face or just him pissing off his s/o. Or anything you would like! I live for angst with a happy ending. т.т Thanks for considering it!

Ok so "this" is characters talking in Chinese. Becuase there is a moment where Bi-han talks in it.

Update: I forgot to put the header hahah

Bi-han doesn't know what lead up to it, he and his S/o never fought and now looking back it was the last time they really did other then a small bicker here and there. All he knows is that his S/o has left and his head is now in his hands. Tears run down the side of his face before he slams his fist into he table. Ice crackles around him as covers the table and floor. He stands up and wipes his face. Bi-han moves to the window watching the snow fall outside. It's silent, and a blood curdling scream breaks though the Silence.

Bi-han's eyes go wide hearing his lover scream. He runs to the door throwing it open and sprinting out onto the snow covered field.

"Y/N!!"

~ten minutes before~

"Bi-han!, you can't just kill every person who is out here!, some are wanderers trying to get home!, others might need help!" His S/o yells, he looks from the body of a man he had frozen once he entered His Home.

"No one with any good intentions would be out here, even of a day time, it's the reason we live here Y/n, it's secluded and far enough away the anyone who comes here, I'll know have no good intentions." He says throwing the man's body back out into the snow with enough force that it shatters the frozen man's body into manly pieces.

"Your so fucking paranoid Bi!, not everyone is out to get you!" They yell back atm him. He moves up to them grabbing their arms enough to hold them close but not to hurt them. He would never her his lover. It was one thing he promised himself. He would never raise his hand to them and he would fucking make sure he never caused them harm. Even if they fought.

"Being paranoid is the only reason I've lived this long Baby, you don't get to my age without killing those who come after you. And I'll be damned if I lose you. So id rather be paranoid and kill every person who comes here then find you dead!" he says lifting their face to look into his bright blue eyes. He puts both his hands on their cheeks rubbing them with his thumbs.

They look down before they looked up eyes hard as they stare him down. They pull away from his touch and move two steps away. "Ironic huh, don't want me to end up the same as some of the people you kill" the taunt, Bi-han tense as they say that, Eyes going wide. He stands there silently eyes down cast.

"It's what I do Y/n, it's my job. Remember I'm not normal. And you!, are the one who wanted to live here. You chose to come and live with me. You! Chose to love me!" He yells causing them to flich as ice covers one half of the house. His S/o backs up to the door, there fsce portraying all their emotions. "Well I'm starting to think I made a mistake" they say opening the door and walking out.

Bi-han stand frozen to the spot for a second before he bolts to the door. "Y/N! where are you going?!" He calls out as he watches them walk across the snow covered field. "Away from Here! Leave me the fuck alone!" They yell back to him.

Bi-han slams the door as he closes it and sinks down onto the floor. He sits there and cries before standing up and moving to the small table with books on it. He snatches up the table before throwing it across the room into a wall where it breaks. He lets out a roar of a yell as ice engulf the the room. He makes His way over to the small table when he sinks down and cries.

~in the present ~

Bi-han sprints thought the snow heading towards the trees. The scream had gone quite ad he runs towards the direction he heard it. He comes to a halt looking hoping to find some sign of his lover. He can hear movement in the snow and he hears a voice. "Quite your fucking squirming you little fuck" Bi-han eyes go wide as his instincts kick it. His fight or flight refect going into full fight mode as he sprints towards the voice.

He comes to a sliding stop onto behind a tree after he sees two men and a body that he figures as his lover. They are tied up. He is filled with dread once he sees the blood. The temperature drops even move out of hiding. He marches towards the men.

"Who the fuck are you! " one yells. Bi-han makes the ice begin to float as he glares that the two man who stare in absolute fear.

"The harbinger of you're death!" He growls as he unleashes his fury on the two man. The men fall dead almost instantly. Bi-han stands in his spot as it goes quite again. His eyes snap to his S/o who lays on the ground gagged and tied up.

"Y/N!" He yells sprinting over to where they lay. He picks them up seeing blood drip from their head where a small wound is. Y/n whimpers as he pulls the gag off and undoes the rope.

"Baby please, please talk to me" he say pulling them into his arms before he sprints back towards their house.

~ A day later~

Bi-han sits beside his bed where his lover lays wrapped up in blankets. He runs his hand over their forehead.

"How are they doing?" His brothers voice ask from the door. Bi-han shoots up turning to his brother. Kuai raises his hands in a surrender. Bi-han sighs nodding to his brother.

"They have more colour now, I was so worried that they... that..." Kuai moves to place his hand on his brothers shoulder. "They are strong. And if anything they will make it just so they can argue with you more" he chuckles. Kuai places a hand on his brother's S/o's forehead checking their temperature.

"I think they will be fine now. I'll leave you to it and head back, I can be gone to long" Kuai says heading to the door. He turns back to his older brother. "Bi-han look after them, I like this one and I like seeing you happy" he says staring him a small laugh from Bi-han.

"I will Tundra" he says moving to sit on the side of the bed.

~thirty minutes later~

Soft eyes open and Y/n comes too, they are wrapped in blankets as they wake up. The room is quite and they sit up looking around. Their body hurts as they stand up on wobbly legs and make their way out if the room. "Bi-han?" The Kuei Lin assassin turns around quickly to be ment with his lover wrapped in a mass of blankets as they stand in the door way of the kitchen.

"Baby!" Bi-han drops everything he is holding a she rushes to his S/o. His hands are on their face checking them before pulling them into a hug and then a kiss. "Baby I'm so sorry!, I shouldn't have yelled at you" he says softly, they rest their head on his shoulder pulling him closer. "No, no! You were right I should have listened. You were just trying to look after me." They whimper as he lifts them up and takes them back to bed.

"No more fighting?, I don't want you or I to go thought that again" he says while laying his S/o down on the bed. "Promise!, no fighting. Unless it's play fighting" They whisper back holding up their pinky to link with his. He seals the deal.

"Fukc baby the was the most scary thing I've been though this century." He hums earning a laugh from his lover.

"Yea, yea old man!"

hello my dear friend!! i am so glad i caught this before the 24th because this is such an adorable idea! if i may request...

i'd like to exchange gifts with my luvah wrecker shocking, i know and i think i would get him something practical he could use but also something that has thought behind it? like maybe one of those cute stuffies that you can heat up in the microwave and use them as a heating pad (bc i've seen people hc that he would have body aches because of his rapid growth). i also think i would get him those hot chocolate bombs because i could see him not only loving the name and concept behind them but also enjoy snuggling up with a hot cup of cocoa crammed with marshmallows ☺️ as for me, i'm not picky with gifts. i like girly stuff i can use to pamper myself, as well as fuzzy socks and blankets. maybe a vinyl record would be cool so i can add it to my collection! but in all honesty somebody could get me a rock and i'd be happy lol

also just wanted to get kinda sappy on here because really would i be myself if i didn't? short answer: no.

i just wanted to say happy holidays and that i seriously adore you. you are not only so talented but you are such a kind friend with a beautiful soul. i get so happy to see you post, just know you'll always have a cheerleader on here (me! 🤠 hahah). i'm so lucky to consider you a pal and i hope you have a wonderful holiday! stay safe and warm! 💛

Wrecker loves all the thoughtful and caring gifts you give him; you always seem to know exactly what he needs, and it makes him absolutely burst in happiness. So this Life Day, he's determined to find the perfect gift for you in return. He scours the holo-net for ideas, braves the madness in the shops... There's plenty of things he'd know you'd like, but nothing stands out as perfect. He's almost in despair when an idea suddenly comes to him. It's ambitious, and maybe a little silly, but he's going for it anyway.

When the day comes for you to finally exchange your gifts, he is equal parts nervous and excited. He'd been hiding himself away most nights to work on his mystery project, but while you are very intrigued by all the secrecy, and the rather large box he sets before you, you still make him open his gift first.

He loves the heating pad you got him, it really is perfect for his aching muscles (he definitely feels more worn out than he likes to admit). After you explain what the hot chocolate bombs are all about, he gets a kick out of that, too. But now it's your turn, and his eyes eagerly await your reaction.

You lift the lid of the box to find a blanket... one side is a soft, plush material in your favorite color, and the other side is composed of all his old shirts and blacks hand-stitched together. He explains that he wanted you to have something that smelled and felt like him, to comfort you whenever he was away. But he's also apologizing for some of the imperfections, assuring you he can get Omega's smaller fingers to help re-stitch some of the areas he struggled with.

You, of course, shut him up with a kiss. It's perfect even in it's imperfections. And the two of you spend the rest of the evening snuggling under your new blanket, mugs full of cocoa and hearts full of happiness.

~ ~ ~

Send me an ask to get a gift from a Star Wars character!

(fkshfsduhfas Lauren, my beautiful friend, staaahp you're making me cry! You have no idea how much I appreciate you and your kindness and friendship. 💗 I hope you have a warm and wonderful holiday as well!! xoxo)

09•24•22 - Vegas Day 2

Every year we go to the iHeartRadio Daytime Stage, and every year we suffer haha. We forgot to bring our mini fans, so we Amazon Primed them to Lisa's the night before, and thank goodness for those. They save us.

We got to the festival a bit late, which kind of sucked because we were actually interested in the first performer - Lauren Spencer Smith. We had a hard time figuring out where to park, but decided to go back to Treasure Island and walk from there since that's what we did last year. It was a long, hot walk, and took longer than expected, which is why we were late. We could hear Lauren's last song from outside the gates, but that's not quite the same.

It was almost 100 degrees, and right off the bat we were dying. We really hate the Area 15 venue, because it's just an asphalt parking lot. It just reflects the heat back at you. There's hardly any shade, and nowhere to sit down. They need to find something more like Coachella, with grass and shade and all that.

But anyway, thank goodness for the little fans to blow on our sweat and cool us off. They were running on full blast nearly the whole time.

We stayed in the crowd for Ryan Hurd, Girl in Red (who reminded me so much of Heather Fuhr), Chloe, Avril Lavigne, Gayle, and Chase Rice before we took our first break, and it was a lot. We were sitting in the dirty parking lot between each set and getting disgusting haha, but our backs and feet needed a break.

Avril was literally the best thing ever. She sang so many of my favorites - Girlfriend, Bite Me, My Happy Ending, I'm With You, and Sk8er Boi. She had a killer punk princess outfit on, and sent big balloons off into the crowd. Her visuals were insane, and the whole thing was great. My 7-year old self would have been psyched. I only wish she'd done Complicated, and Love Sux. And maybe What the Hell. She has so many bangers. Now I want to go to a strictly Avril concert.

Gayle did her iconic ABCDEFU and Beach was thrilled.

During our break for a couple people that we didn't care to see, we got a cup of ice water, and found a patch of shade to sit in (albeit, still on the asphalt). It was so nice to have a break (although brayden was still complaining about the venue and he hated the asphalt hahah, it made us laugh).

Then we got back up for 5SOS, and they were SO GOOD as always. We've seen them at iHeart before, and they just bring the party. We saw Lauv, sat in the T-Mobile lounge (TURF!) during Latto, and then went back out for Willow - who looks just like her dad, and has such a powerful, strong voice. I was impressed.

Then we left before Big Time Rush came out, because we didn't care too much about them and we were tired, hot, and ready for dinner!

The walk back also felt SO LONG, but at least it had started to cool off.

We were so happy to be back to the car! We got dinner at Chili's, and it was life changing. I was so happy to wash my hands, and drink all kinds of beverages. And the food was so great. I love the relief of attending to basic needs after neglecting them all day.

Then we made a quick stop at the outlets, so I could get a new Kate Spade bag - that's the only place I ever want to get them since they're so much cheaper. They were on a great sale, and I'm so happy with it. We also found a dress for Beach to wear to brunch while we were shopping, so that was good.

Then we stopped to get drinks before going home to take such amazing showers, play pool, and get some much needed sleep!!

▪ and by they, i mostly mean tendou :/

  ▴ he'd probably just ask you to teach him curse words and stuff tho </3

  ▴ oh tendou, you silly goose! *80s laugh track intensifies*

▪ it wasn't that the others were disinterested in you, because they totally are! you're their manager and they love you like family! most of them just preferred to question you when you weren't busy :(

  ▴ of course there are times when their curiosity ends up getting the best of them and they ask you during practice and you answer and oh, look, now they're all sitting cross-legged on the gym floor, eyes gleaming with interest

  ▴ coach washijo ended up walking in on that and gave you a long, harsh lecture on your duties as a managers as the boys did 40 rounds of their punishment conditioning :((

▪ anyways </3

▪ since you came from a foreign country, your social norms and way of living is (probably) different from that of the boys, in whom none have ever left japan's soil

    ▴ tbh they were probably confused when they saw you greet someone with like,,,a kiss on the cheek or a good ol' pat on the back despite you not really knowing them.

    ▴ deadasss goshiki almost combusted when you first greeted him with a hug </3 he was so flustered you swore you had seen blood slowly trickling down his nose :<

 ▪ as i said earlier, they're all really interested in knowing about your culture! but they're all interested in different areas, i think.

▪ tendou would be interested with pop culture stuff

  ▴ like all the celebrities (so he can simp for them LMAO) and all the tea ☕ and stuff idk i feel like he's just into the gossip </3 (becos same HAHAH)

▪ shirabu would bug you less, but he'd still love to hear when you'd talk about this one medicine your country had discovered or a medicine that's illegal in japan but available in your country

  ▴ + shirabu heart points if you bring him some so he can study it and be a big nerd </3

  ▴ (i don't think it's canon that shirabu likes studying medicines and their compositions and stuff but i like to think he does </3)

▪ i think reon would know the most about you though??? 

  ▴ he has no specific area of interest, but he knows the most because of your weekly tea times </3 he's even picked up on a few words in your mother tongue by listening to you speak

  ▴ also he TOTALLY doesn't find your accent endearing </3 no not reon not ever </3

  ▴ and he TOTALLY doesn't just *heart squeeze* when you mispronounce something or make a grammar mistake beCAUSE IT'S JUST TOO CUTE OH GOSH HE CAN'T HELP IT YOU MAKE HIM HAVE HAPPY TEARS

▪ anyways :D

▪ semi would be interested in the music (i went for such a basic route wOW)

  ▴ but fr tho he wants to know more about your countries indigenous people and all the instruments and rituals and just know more about the sound of your country (cos he wants to incorporate it into his own music ☠)

  ▴ like full-on scribbling notes in his tiny little notepad as he nods along to what you were saying, hanging on to each and every word </3

  ▴ (did i forget to say i love semi? because i love semi !! semi OWNS me for friques sake pLEASE LET ME MARRY HIM)

▪ our lovely libero, mr. yamagata would probably be interested in the food?? 

  ▴ if you bring him one of your countries local foods!!!

  ▴ even if it's street food he's gonna treat it like it came from like,,,a restaurant as fancy as the one in ratatouille

  ▴ and if you let him have bites of your lunch? ,,,, you might be unintentionally holding yamagata's heart in your hands </3

▪ NEXT IS KAWANISHI!!!

  ▴ this is so out of order oh my </3

▪ kawanishi probably wouldn't ask you anything tbh? i feel like he'd listen if you spoke about your home country and what it was like there, but he wouldn't bug you about it. 

  ▴ like yeah he wants to know but he wouldn't pester you??? does that english 😭😭

  ▴ but sneak a peek out of the corner of your eye and you best bet you can see kawanishi listening just as intently as the others as you told them about this one ethnic celebration you had attended

▪ speaking of kouhais, our sweet baby ace goshiki has yet to take a turn!!

▪  he loves to hear about the rich culture of your country! even if he can't understand some things, he still loves listening to you! the shine in your eyes when you speak about all your friends and shenanigans back home, as well as all the traditions and rituals you had experienced was enough to content goshiki. he loved seeing you happy!

  ▴ (SIMP!!!!)

▪  finally, our king (and captain), mr. ushiwaka </3

▪  he's kind of like reon in the sense that while he doesn't really ask, he knows the most about you

  ▴ he would listen more intently than reon imo because mr. waka-kun definitely wants to travel the world someday (and maybe even play professionally for another country!), so he'd love to learn about different cultures <33

  ▴ watch him even try to learn your mother tongue and actually be kinda good at it </3

▪ OH one thing these guys all share in common tho is being interested in your countries volleyball team during olympics season </3

  ▴if your home country and japan go against each other,,,,well, let's just say it ends in a lot of bets :)

▪ btw if you ever get homesick, you best bet these boys will go out of their way to find the stuff that reminds you of home (even if it's something super rare </3) and surprise you with it

  ▴ uhh,,,there's probably some stuff that doesn't even seem like it came from your country (or japan, for that matter) but tendou thought it looked cool so he got it for you ://

▪ it's also pretty fun during everyone's birthdays :))

▴ you cook them some popular dishes that your mother had learned from her mother and wATCH THEM ALL SWOON FOR YOU AND YOUR COOKING!!!!

▪ you own their hearts tbh </3

▪ but that's all good tho :))

▪ cos shiratorizawa's volleyball team owns your heart too :))

Dissecting: Edens Zero Ch. 130-134

Kleene/Jinn

I was reading Ch. 83 and found this.

See, I don’t know if Mashima plans his story out or if he develops certain plots on the spot because everything is connecting. “Oh, I could use this later...” Brilliant. Amazing. For real though, I was like damn it’s the Mildian/Sun Jewel arc again (Xiaomei’s battles foreshadowing).

Shura vs Ziggy

It was interesting to read that Shura isn't the biological son of Nero. This leads me to think...what if Shura and Shiki are related? I mean they both have gravity ether and they both were taught by Ziggy. They both are also strong in their own right. We also have the theme from Fairy Tail of Good vs Evil (Zeref and Natsu) but in this instance it would be Shura and Shiki. We also don't know where they came from - their origins. Plus, Nero says that his power was incompatible with Shura but he was able to match with Ziggy's gravity powers.

Later, when the crew of Edens Zero find another relic (Robo Cola cap), they infer that Mother could be a place and a person. I was also thinking that because in FT: 100 years quest, Aldoron was a dragon god but his body was home to 5 cities.

So, if I'm right then, Shiki and Shura maybe are from a city on Mother...and maybe even Rebecca.

I'm noting that Shiki is younger than Shura. When Ziggy was training Shura, that was 15 years ago but, that's also the same time Ziggy found Shiki as a baby....unless Ziggy is lying and he has false memories. 👀👀👀 Is Ziggy truly good or bad? Does Shiki have additional powers like Rebecca?

What is the all-link system? Looks like Shura and Ziggy have the same idea. I think if Shura and Ziggy battle - Ziggy will win. What did you guys think?

Xenolith and the Crew of Edens Zero

I wonder why Xenolith's maintenance is lasting longer. Perhaps it may be revealed in the future. I would laugh if he moved his consciousness/personality data into a younger robot body.

Weisz stays being a perv lol with the bondage training.

Did Xenolith teach Shiki 'Black Sky?' For me, I feel like in the next arc, when Shiki is facing a really tough opponent we will get flashbacks of his training with Xenolith and him learning Black Sky. Then, he'll perform it against the enemy...which could be Ziggy. So, yes, I think Xenolith did teach him. Could be wrong but we'll have to wait and see!

Both Xenolith and Xiaomei have stated that Rebecca's power will change/save the world/universe.

- Xiaomei (Ch. 64): "She has only just begun to unlock the secrets of Leap’s real power. This power may truly save the universe one day."

- Xenolith (Ch. 132): "Her power is weak…but it is the most special. Special enough to change the world."

Witch calling Rebecca a 'Chrono Witch' is giving me Scarlet Witch vibes...

Math for Dummies lol

Stronger heart = Stronger gravity Strength + Tranquility = Strong Heart = Rise from darkness Strength - Tranquility = Weak Heart Weak heart = Weak gravity = Fall to darkness

Fan service with the bath scenes but, at least it is keeping the story going, in that, she has to train in the bath in order to get stronger. Sister makes me geek, "You better get out of those ropes before this turns x-rated." When I read that scene, it gave me Virgo vibes from FT.

I also want to see how Xenolith met Ziggy. So, I'm wishing for a flashback.

I don't know if I put this on a post before or not but, my thoughts are that Ziggy did reach Mother and found Shiki there. He erased the Four Shining Stars memories because something bad would happen if he didn't (like they would get infected the way he is now). So, he did it to save them.

UGHHHH BUT THAT CLIFFHANGER...WHYYYYY - It'll probably blow my mind when it gets revealed.

Also, WOOHOOO! Jinn and Kleene joined the crew. That cute ass smile!!! OOOMG his face when he isn't able to untie Kleene. 🥺🥺🥺

The Oceans

So cool to see the winners of the Edens Zero character competition featured as the Oceans 6! I'm a fan of all of them and don't you worry...we won't forget Shura's assistant even though she's not part of the 6. However, she might be since Shura killed off Cyca. Yikes.... RIP Cyca

Their designs are so clean!! (Sorry if the images look blurry Tumblr only allows 10 photos per post so I tried stitching them together in Illustrator but I think the file size is too big for Tumblr so that's why it may be blurry but, I hope you get the gist of their designs.)

Holy

I wonder what she means by that...I feel like this will be important later. We also don't know much about the other members of the Oración Seis Interstellar. I'm excited to see what their ether gear is...especially Eraser. 👀👀👀 Does his ether have something to do with erasing things? Are they corrupt or good guys? I guess we'll found out soon...

B-Cube

Rebecca has carved 'Edens Zero' onto her B-Cube. Did you guys notice in Ch. 134 that Rebecca's ingrained B-Cube is the same one we see in Ch. 4? That's the scene where there are two robots 20,000 years in the future who find two bodies (a man and a woman) and a B-Cube which we can now confirm is Rebecca's.

The Ships + Other Notable Mentions

LOL I feel like if I was a B-Cuber, I would be an entertainment/fashion channel....basically like Sorcerer Weekly but make it Space Weekly or a cool name like Into the Void. Maybe a play off of 'Cosmopolitan' but shorten it to 'Cosmos.' So many options.

Anyways lets get into the ships. I talked about this first ship in a recent post.

#1 Homura and Creed

I'll say it again...I SHIP IT! I am hoping for some more scenes with them together. He always looks so cute when he blushes <3 He's a Homura stan too hahah. 🥺🥺🥺

Predictions: - Creed and Homura will fight - Creed will protect Homura again - Homura will save Creed - Creed will join the Edens Zero crew

Now, I was reading on a few discord channels that people are comparing Creed to Mest (Fairy Tail). Now, I am really trying to understand this comparison because frankly, I don't see it. Creed has a crush on Homura. That's valid. Also, Creed doesn't just have pictures of just Homura, he has Weisz, Rebecca, and Shiki. He's not creepy like Mest.

Mest was a weird guy when we first met him laying in the pool or eating flowers. Their personalities are totally different IMO. We could talk ages about the age gap stuff but I'm not really gonna go into that.

Do you see the comparison?

#2 Rebecca and Shiki

Shiki escaping from his restraints to save 'Rebecca' made me happy lol. It makes me think what he would do if it was Homura or Weisz in that situation. What would Shiki do? Plus, after the simulation was over...we can see Rebecca in awe and blushing.

Then, Shiki is hugging Rebecca and they're both blushing 💕 That's a cute moment ngl.

"I'm not THAT into Shiki." - So, you don't deny that you like him 😉

#3 Hermit

I don't know if I mentioned this but I fucking love Hermit's name. It's such a cool name.

#4 Justice

Ch. 130 he was looking gooooood with his bandages. 🥵🥵🥵

Ps. Did you get a chance to view Edens Zero PV 2?!?

Did you notice the homage to Fairy Tail in Ch. 134? "Why are your ideas so Fairy Tale?"

[the-lonelybarricade]

darling dearest, i am in need of some advice and you were the first person i thought to ask (your fanfics are so deep, you have unrivaled wisdom. also you are an adult, which is very useful right now)

so, acting means a lot to me. in fact, it means the world. one of my first coherent sentences as a baby was, "mommy, i want to be on tv," so of course i developed an interest in theater.

it's my first year of high school, and my first thespian convention, and it's 500 dollars. for some context here, my parents had their first kid in high school. my mom never graduated, my dad joined the army instead of going to college. and then they had four more. on top of that, my dad's retired so we're all around dirt fuckin poor hahah. in other words, no one in this family has 500 dollars to send me (except for my middle sister, but that really is too much to ask for).

except for me! i had the money! only, it's in my college fund (which is 660 right now, no one set up a college fund for me as a baby--i only started saving two years ago). like i said, we're dirt poor and no one has the money to put me through college. my sister is a lawyer and has been practicing for years, and is still 200,000 dollars in debt from student loans. i'm having to rely on being smart to apply for scholarships and grants, and if i'm really special, i can get into harvard for free. which is such a huge deal, and one i'm kind of counting on.

even if i don't go to college, i need the money for when i ditch my home state and live in the big city for my big shot at being a successful actress. i can't do this every year. i've already decided to drop cheerleading and adv math next year so i can get a job (i'm not allowed to get one until i can drive). but i don't know if 3yrs of work will even be enough if i want to do normal teenager things and still go to college. chances are, i'm not getting into harvard, much less for free. i'm not gifted like i was as a little girl, and i think the stress would be too much. my mom says she'd help but she's saving for her own house and already getting me my own car, and she doesn't have money either. i don't think i can ask her for that.

thank you for even bothering to read this, thank you times one thousand if you respond.

Goodness lovely, I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this. This is such a big burden to carry and I know it must be really intimidating to think your future is restricted because of money. But take a deep breath, we're going to talk about some things, okay? I'm still new to being an adult myself, I'm in my final year of uni and money is hard.

So first let's talk about this $500 for your Thespian Convention. First, if this is a school event, a lot of schools do wave or reduce fees like this for families that can't afford it. They also may offer scholarships. I would look into seeing if that's possible, but otherwise let's talk about covering that cost from your college fund. I'm assuming from your language that you're American, which means that if you're earning the federal minimum wage (7.25/hr) it will take 60 hours of working to pay that off. That could take anywhere from 2 weeks to a month to work off if you're working part time, so you need to ask yourself if you feel like the thespian convention is worth a month of work that you could be putting towards your college fund. (Also, I know you said you can't get a job until you can drive, but maybe see if there's anything local you can do for extra money, like maybe tutoring or babysitting?). And if you can't go to this Thespian Convention, see if theres a less expensive alternative you can pursue.

Another important thing to consider is that, if acting is definitely what you want to do, you don't need to go to college to be a successful actor. Leonardo Dicaprio, Emma Stone, Ryan Gosling, there's plenty of major A-list actors that skipped college alltogether to pursue their careers. Here's a list. And if going to college is something you really, really want to do, you also don't have to go to college immediately after graduating high school.

This is something they didn't push a lot when I was in high school, and this would have been mind blowing for me when I was a freshman. In my high school going to college was like the expectation for families that could afford it. And they also offered great support for struggling families and first generation students. But I did something super unconventional for my town and I took a gap year. And that gap year changed my life. So my love, you don't need to worry about 3 years being enough time to do normal teenager things while working your butt off to pay for school. You can give yourself as many years as you need to get that money together, or to pursue your acting career or both. College is ready for you when you're ready for it. There's no set timeline. And I wish they told high schoolers that more often. I wish I was told that sooner.

But let's say that you really want to go to college and you really want to go as soon as you graduate high school. That's totally fine too! Let's talk about your options. Getting a full-ride scholarship is competitive and a lot of pressure to put on yourself. I say go for it! Go for as many as you can and apply for every scholarship available! But also give yourself the breathing space to think about other options. This is a list of no-loan colleges in the US. These are schools that will meet 100% of your financial need if you get accepted. Now the tricky thing is you still have to pay for your EFC (estimated family contribution) and sometimes your FAFSA (federal application for student aid) grossly overestimates how much your family can actually contribute. But it will definitlely eat a big chunk of that money away and there are still loan and scolarship options for that remaining sum. Also when applying for these schools a lot of them do offer an application fee waiver for families that can't afford it.

There are also loads of private scholarship available options from various companies. Talk to your high school counsellors, they *should* have great resources for finding this kind of stuff. I wish I could remember where I found all of my scholarship info, but it's been almost 5 years since I've done that research. I think maybe fastweb was something I found useful? And I also found this website and this website after a cursory google search just now. I'm sure you'll find good sources too! Freshman year is not too early to start applying to private scholarships. A lot of them are directed at seniors, but there are all kinds and sometimes they're just fun contests with small rewards, but it all adds up!f

You can also try killing two birds with one stone! See if there are any acting jobs available either in your local area or even just online! Maybe set up a fiverr and read scripts for people, or see if you can work as a counselor for a theater camp in the summer. My first job was as an acting job as a dancing penguin at a local summer festival when I was 14.

Okay and now I feel obligated to tell you something. You don't need to go to college in the US. This probably sounds outrageous as a freshman, it definitely would have to me. But I'm literally typing this from where I now live in the UK, after taking that gap year and realizing that american school is ridiculously expensive and way less cool than european schools? Do your research, there's lots of options available to you and the US is not your only one. I've saved loads of money going to school here and I'm happy as a clam. Here are some fun links.

Anyway my love, I know that was a lot of information and I'm sure none of it magically solved your problems or took that burden of your shoulders. But take a deep breath. Everything will happen in its own time and there will always be opportunities for you to pursue being an actor. There will also always be the option to decide to go to college at any point in your life. The biggest and most important thing is to just not give up. Focus on the here and now, focus on your grades, and the rest will follow. You got this, I know you do. And please, always feel free to come to me with any questions or even if you just need to rant in my inbox, I'm here <3
