okay i think ive looked through linagram masterlist here is my review

not going to review these who im completely neutral towards like they're... just here... they exist

miki - i like her design and the savior complex is funny

akio - skrunkly, i think his average ass design is his charm point👍 also sorry about the homosexuality

aimi - i like her design and the ideas with bullying are interesting to me, also you should redraw her to a frame from carrie

shun - i find him interesting as a character, neutral about him as a person, a lot of things wrong with him for sure

naomi - gorgeous t2 design and i like her personality, i like the idea of a sort of childish adult. FUCK THEM KIDS 💥 i love when adult women go fuck them kids this is hilairous

eiko - the woman ever 👍👍 thank you for e-dating representation

asahi - skrunkly, happy that i got to draw him out of all people for the new year requests

yurika - i like her, idk why you all people are so mean to her, girls must be covered in blood at all times

riku - boy situationship with a person you're sick of much 👍👍 get it 👍👍 being idolized and because of that isolated since you're not Just a Person like everyone but also not ready to let go of being idolized since you cant experience affection in normal ways👍👍

i think my top of those i like the most would be like ... asahi > naomi > akio > riku > yurika maybes?

also i really like the idea with two (well now three) wardens, that makes the vds much more lively, and the verdicts more, thought through? since you can actually see how the arguments went in their conversations, and you dont have to twist the warden's personality to adapt to the verdict since each represents only one verdict

have you ever made smth like a popularity poll i want to know what is the general rating among the linagrammers im new to the fandom

YAYYYYYYYY

"sorry about the homosexuality" made me scream you're so right.. sometimes i think about how if akio was straight maybe all of this wouldn't have happened /j

AND OH WAIT YOU'RE RIGHT ABOUT AIMI AND CARRIE... NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT IT FITS HER SO WELL ESPECIALLY WITH HER FIRST MV... writing this down writing this down

and yes, when i started thinking about naomi's character more, i actually had this idea that like.. "what if we had a character who's an adult woman and who doesn't like children, but she has no idea that she's actually still a child on the inside". her third mv will focus a lot on that too..

thank you for summarizing riku's character 😌😌 the guy actually probably has a god complex that's worse than akio's but his story isn't about that. he's also a god who's kinda tired of his followers but knows he won't be able to do anything without them so.. what a dilemma.. kurae ban ban ban..

actually yes, i kinda went with multiple guards bc i did have only one guard oc at first but when i started to think about the vds the conversations sounded very awkward.. so i was like two guards it is! well now three. it's okay to forget hinode exists btw i forget about him sometimes too writing him is agonizing bc this guy is just linagram komaeda

i think i haven't really made any polls like that and i don't think linagram has like. a really big fandom hdjkskssk i think people were more active when i just started, but i remember making a poll that was like "hey if linagram was a dating sim, who would you date" and kei and eiji got the most votes. sanada brothers are overall very popular i think? and i think if i made a poll like that kei and/or yurika would win djsksls

mekaru cuz she's neglected tbh 🥺?

im so fucking guilty of neglecting her. i neeed her to make friends so i can start spinning her in my mind with characters im already obsessed with so she can be More in my brain as her own character. mekaru pls pls just start being more authentic and love urself-

cw she has so much internalized homophobia. that’s all tho

-My identity hc for them

canon lesbian!! has a lot of comphet tho. like, a lot. like, only character to upload the “fact” they’re het to their report card. 

- Thoughts on their home life/family

ya know. i think she’s lying to herself about how much she likes kids. i don’t think she’s inclined to them but playing babysitter all the time has made her p child adverse. however admitting this means realizing she can’t gain “i am a normal respectable non-offending person who no one has any reason to have any issue with” points by raising 2.5 kids. so. yeah she just chooses to keep lying to herself

- How i feel about their canonical writing/handling

tbh i think i do a bad job portraying her comphet? buuut. to take a step back and think neutrally about things, i think that’s predominantly a result of, again, the role she plays in the story, and the fact we’re not in her head. we can judge how well i write her comphet when we get to pick her brain a bit more in ftes. id rather have a more subtle, more accurate depiction, then one that’s made inaccurate with how in your face “wow my bestie is so pretty if only girls who liked girls were real…” it is. (<- not that portrayals like that are bad/wrong, it’s abt enjoying yourself while not feeding into negative stereotypes! i just don’t really want to depict her comphet in that more lighthearted manner).

- The one thing i’d want to make canon about them

again. this is prolly just gonna be stuff which didn’t happen in canon but could’ve if things were different? w/mekaru i think if she studied psychology more and like. Dedicated herself to it she could easily rise to shsl psychiatrist level. this is canon but i think that she’s specifically interested in medicine when it comes to treatment of the human condition. she likes and grasps it all, but the history of assorted pills is where she Shines

- My number one favorite ship for them

okada my beloved <3. (obligatory: okada aimi is mekarus bestie! she’ssss. sapphic, i don’t have anything more specific/anything otherwise canon for her. she likes mekaru and thinks mekaru likes her back (she’s right), buuut. she hasn’t confessed because she thinks she’ll be rejected (she’s right, again.) she’s trying to gently tug mekaru into having a Revelation but it hasn’t been going v well for her.

- …Now everyone else i ship with them

i used to say that like. tomori was probably her gateway into her moment of Realization. i can still see that being true but i think it was less genuine desire to date and moreso.  mekaru projecting what she feels she needs to be onto tomori then seeing tomori being queer and going. hmmm. anyways tho. i kinda like her w/kurokawa but i think kurokawas just v shippable? poor okada tho i think she’d would be crying and throwing up if she found out mekaru dated a girl from hpa before dating her.

also tho i kinda think she’d be cute w/hatanami. sorry okada :(

- The thing i will NEVER ship

she is in fact still a lesbian, folks! uhh past that tho im rotating her with different girls and i don’t like the idea of her and inori like. at all for some reason

- a dynamic/relationship i wish was explored more (in canon, or in fandom)

i think it’d be neat if she. i don’t know got to have friends. id like to chat abt her interacting with tomori more!!

- thoughts on their design (appearance-wise)

im really happy with her redesign! her personality and demeanor changed from the first one she had here, but her fit didn’t change, and it really just didn’t work. also it’s kinda matchy with linujs actual beta design for rei iirc? so that’s funny

- A music-related thought- a song that reminds me of them, or what their music taste is, etc

lol. little miss perfect from write out loud/etc. uhh past the obvi one i had to list… first love/late spring - mitski comes to mind less in a. struggling with growing up and loving seriously as an adult and moreso. fear that comes with realizing ur in love with ur bestie (u are a teen with severe internalized homophobia). again apologizing for my inability to stick with what the song is actually about at least this one was semi accurate. please know i will go to war when it comes to respecting mitski as an artist and not dismissing her experiences and what she’s saying.

Aimi had to focus intensely on not letting her imagination run wild. Weddings were always her favorite, there was nothing better than dolling up grooms and brides. She'd even been invited to a few, the beautiful flowers and clothes and words.. she couldn't help wondering what hers and-

She pushed the thought down, putting on a small polite smile and waving at the woman behind the counter. Aimi was still unsure since he hadn't exactly agreed, but decided to give it a shot. She pressed her body closer into his side, bunching up one of the sleeves to take his hand. She carefully searched for any discomfort before looking over at the pastries on display. Delighted to find some chocolaty treats, she smiled up at him, affection spilling over into her tone.

"Which one do you want, darling?"

He had been slightly taken aback by the pet name, hand squeezing hers in surprise. A warm feeling spread throughout his chest and for a second, he truly thought he was melting into a puddle of a man. Nagito decided to savour this illusion of love, it was probably the only opportunity he’d ever get to experience what it’d be like to be in a relationship. 

Nagito flushed as he could hear the aw’s behind the counter, to which he responded with awkward laughter; he felt bad for putting Aimi in such a situation, but she must’ve really wanted the pastries to act like that with someone like him. Nagito decided he would keep the act up too, he needed to seem convincing enough to get Aimi the free pastries.

So with a silent and shaky inhale, he told himself he would do it. For Aimi.

“Do you guys have any bagels?” IM KIDDING

“The donuts look good, but I don’t really have a preference... My sweetheart’s opinion is more important to me; so you can choose, I don’t mind.” He grinned down at her, concealing the feelings of internal panic and immense love he had boiling in his heart. He wondered if he should just go for it and kiss her head, but he shook his head, face flushing; that’d be too far.

im not going to talk about supernatural. I'm writing this in the morning without any knowledge of this lats episode.

But

Ive met a lot of people through supernatural, some ive forgotten, some I still keep in touch with, but if this stupid show has left me with anything other than a strange longing for a '67 impala, it got me a best friend.

14 years ago I was REALLY into it (I still watch every season, with varying degrees of excitement, disappointment and apathy tbh) but my friend group was these uni kids in their early twenties, eager to be older than they were, definitely not the sort that watched this show, or wanted to talk about it

(or maybe they did, I dont know, it always felt like a cringe thing, I never felt comfortable being excited about it in front of them)

but I was lonely, living in the middle of nowhere, had spent the previous six years working ten hour days doing manual labour that already had me feeling disconnected, and I wanted someone, anyone, real and close that I could at least share this one thing with. I didnt even care if we never met, just the idea that maybe we could, that maybe we could spend an afternoon wandering the city and talking about something I loved, something I was excited about every week.

So I, in hindsight probably creepily, went through the spn LJ community, looked for someone who lived in my state, and found one.

(I probably found many, I dont remember, just as I dont remember whether I friended her before talking to her, or just randomly threw myself out, I dont remember)

But I dont really remember meeting her for the first time,

(vague flashes of excitement because we were going to a concert at the zoo, laughter because we both made axe murderer jokes as she got into my car without hesitation)

and we talked about spn.

AND WE TALKED.

It helped that our interest in the show was rooted in the same vein of enjoying a show that was prepared to be violent but not the gratuitous sex violence that so many shows were heading towards.

&for several years, she was my spn friend, the person I ran to to be excited for this stupid fun CW show that I loved.

(we did eventually branch out to so many more shared loves, holy shit, my love for live music has been rekindled, ive been dragged to do things ive always wanted to do but never had the guts to do by myself, and in turn, learnt that maybe I can do things by myself, rediscovered the joy in just liking things because it seemed like fun)

I could never have expected that when the show ended

(remember season 1? when it ended Like That and we didnt know if it'd be renewed? Remember the writer strikes of s3 where we feared the same thing?)

that it wouldnt matter, that we'd have moved so far from just being supernatural friends, that we'd have spent at least five full months travelling the world, that we'd have gone on Great American roadtrips that just clocked over 15,000 miles last year, on small (and large) roadtrips in our own country, that'd we have created friend networks from the melbourne AHBL that we used as a pilgrimage each year to reconnect,to get excited about spn again.

(and on the years that spn was lacklustre, a weekend to melbourne to meet old friends and have fun)

We still have many vastly different opinions on some things,

(she doesnt understand my sudden love for the entire Luca Marinelli filmography, which is A Flaw in my best friend, im aware) she will watch christian kane in anything (which is A Flaw in me, im aware)

but we've become those tumblr posts of Get You A Friend You Can Just Hang Silently With For Hours.

So Supernatural. Thank you for the Memes, for the Cringe, for the Mocking from Mutuals, For the Good times, For my used-to-be-annual-pilgrimage-damn-you-corona to Melbourne, For Jess-From-South-Australia (currently in corona jail, ilu)

but mostly thanks for making me the sort of dweeb who wanted to talk to someone In Real Life about you. Because without that, I would never have seen half the world (with plans for the rest) I never would have met all her friends that I love & ive stolen to be my friends too now

Thanks Aimi.

(yes, im attacking you while your guard is down and you're probably already crying, so I can pretend I Did This)

im not sure if youve posted them somewhere else on this blog, but do you have any headcanons about karins dad?

i do actually ! his name is kohaku & he’s pretty big , ( think juugo ) but he’s SUPER SOFT. he loves his wife SO MUCH and obviously karin. he enjoys jokes , he’s a kenjutsu expert from a different faction of the uzumaki clan. he’s got earth & water nature chakra types as well. he and aimi met when they were kids but aimi didn’t really. get along with him and they ended up meeting again as they were escaping the destruction of uzushiogakure and traveled together afterwards. they fell in love and had karin and ‘got married’ – that’s in quotations bc it wasn’t a traditional uzumaki marriage so technically it wouldn’t have been official but since uzushio was destroyed they didn’t really have any options ? he once picked a LOT of honeysuckle , like , enough to fill the entire kitchen of the hut that karin , aimi , and he lived in – just to surprise aimi. he called karin his princess and that she would do a lot of things. for the first few weeks after karin was born he cried CONSTANTLY after holding her for any time period. karin didn’t really. like either of her parents as a newborn because she’s an innate sensor so she would get like . overwhelmed by their chakra because they both had so much of it. he died because he was over-worked trying to make a living for aimi and karin and he got really sick. ( which is why when karin’s mother was sick , she threw a fit about her mom going to work. ) and he ended up dying from that – aimi was pregnant at the time and karin was five. uwu. i helped with this blog ( asa drew , i gave answers but here’s a short comic about them !  )  anyways kohaku was literally the Softest Biggest Man ever who would die for his family.
