Dad!Gojo

Fluff w mention of sex

Imagine you and Gojo have a baby 😭

-Y’all’s daughter is the cutest little thing; inheriting your brown skin tone with his white hair and blue eyes.

-When Koyo was an infant, you would constantly wake up to her just staring at you with those big blue eyes. It was a bit jarring at first, you had to get used to it just like you did with Gojo. The creepiest, though, was once when you checked the baby monitor in the middle of the night and she was staring directly into the camera.

-Gojo loves that Koyo inherited your curls, they’re one of his favorite things about you. He tries his hardest to do styles on her, but they never turn out quite right. Plenty of times when he’d tried to do something as simple as pigtails they ended up crooked. He leaves most of the styles to you, letting you do all types of braids and twists on your baby.

-Potty training is hell; your daughter HATES pooping on the potty.

“Koyo, do you need to potty?” You ask. It’s been about two hours since she last went, and you’re trying to keep up a schedule. She shakes her head and continues playing with her blocks. Just to be sure, you walk over to her to check her pull-up. You smell it before you see it. Koyo catches onto you, so she starts running away.

“Satoru, come get your child!” You yell. And just like that, your husband appears with Koyo upside down in his hand. She’s just giggling like it’s the funniest thing in the world.

-Gojo spoils his baby. Oh, she’s spoiled rotten, but you wouldn’t have it any other way.

“Daddy, I want this!” Your three year old points at an expensive toy kitchen set.

“How do you ask nicely, Koyo?” Satoru asks.

“May I have this toy please?”

“I say yes, but we gotta ask the boss. Well, mama, whaddya think?” He picks Koyo up in his arms and holds her at his level. The two of them stare at you expectantly, waiting on your response.

“Alright, alright. What color do you want?” You give in. Your daughter squeals and laughs with delight.

-When y’all sign her up for daycare, Gojo is more upset than you are. And that’s saying a lot. On her first day, you have tears brimming in your eyes. It hurts seeing your baby walk away happily into her new class.

“What if she needs me? What if something happens? She can’t go to school yet, she’s just a baby!” Gojo laments in the car. Your three year old is very smart and mature for her age, so realistically you don’t have much to worry about. Unfortunately, though, she has two very dramatic parents who love her dearly.

“Let’s go back and get her. We can go get her and she can start over tomorrow. I’ll be ready then,” he begs.

-To be honest, Gojo kinda eats as a dad. He’s super fun, but he can get serious. He’s so go-with-the-flow that anytime a hiccup happens in your meticulous plans, he calms you into believing everything will be ok. Eventually though, he wants another kid. Koyo is four already and he misses having a little baby.

“Cmonnnn let’s have one more. Koyo needs someone to play with and I miss the baby stage. Plus, you look so sexy pregnant. I love seeing you round with my babies. You know I love breeding your tight little cunt,” the last of his words are nothing more than a whisper in your ear. You end up folding for him that same night.

-Satoru definitely makes Megumi watch the kids when y’all need a night out. Megumi doesn’t mind too much because both kids are well behaved. All three of his students love your kids; Yuuji likes playing a little rough with your son, Kawa, and Nobara loves dressing Koyo up

{18Trip} The 18 Questions Corner - Natsuyaki Chihiro

This is a translation for the 18 questions interview uploaded on the official Youtube channel. I suggest to read this translation alongside it!

Full TL note at the end of the interview due to its length! But as an opener:

Chihiro: Oatscurry! See ya at Chii’s stream laters!

Chihiro: Natsuyaki Chihiro! HAMA’s 12th Ward Mayor. Leave all the hospitality to Chii the Commanding Officer of Hype to deliver you the bestest of best!

TL notes:

よろぴく (yoropiku) is outdated slang for よろしく (yoroshiku). Has been turned into various slangy ways to represent it.

トリメ is short for トリートメント, aka hair treatment.

イケカテ is short for “ikemen voice category” which is a way to classify what kind of voices you prefer. If you hear someone that makes you go, “Kyaah~ such a handsome voice!” you file him away in ikekate. If it’s like “Woaaah, so cyoot!” you file him away in kawakate (kawa being kawaii). Chihiro also makes a pun with this: ikekate rosen demo ikenjanee (lit. can’t I like, go down the ikekate route!?). While this has been reworked into something else completely, I included it in the TL note simply as an FYI. 

あげぽよ (agepoyo) is Gyaru slang for when something is super duper extra mega hype poggers, etc.

There’s more quirky stuff, but he drained me of all my braincells for now.

下野[Shimotsuke] Spiraea japonica

A long, long time ago, there was a region called 毛野[Keno|Kenu] in the northern part of the present Kantō region. As time went by, around the 6th to 7th century, it was divided into two regions, 上毛野[Kami-tsu Keno|Kenu] in the west and 下毛野[Shimo-tsu Keno|Kenu] in the east. Then, in the Heian period(794-1185), these became 上野国[Kamitsuke-no kuni|Kōzuke-no kuni] and 下野国[Shimotsuke-no kuni], and in the Meiji period(1868-1912), they became present 群馬県[Gunma ken] and 栃木県[Tochigi ken], respectively. 国 means province or country, 県 means prefecture. And, this plant got its name because it was found there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryōmō_Line

利根川[Tonegawa], which flows through the Kantō Plain, is the second longest river with the largest basin area in Japan, and its longest tributary is 鬼怒川[Kinugawa]. 川[-gawa|Kawa] means river. Kinugawa originates in the northern part of Tochigi Prefecture and runs through the prefecture from north to south and empties into Tonegawa. 鬼怒[Kinu] literally means the oni(ogre) gets angry, but this is an ateji(phonetic-equivalent characters), and Kinugawa was originally 毛野川[Kenugawa].

Incidentally, if 下野 is read as geya, it means to leave the government service. This is short for 野に下る[Ya ni kudaru](lit. go down to the private sector) and is not related to Shimotsuke.

君の空気に触れた瞬間(とき) (Kimi no Kuuki ni Fureta Toki / The Moment I Felt Your Mood)

English Translation:

For some reason, I was admiring the morning rain

My breathing until yesterday, I didn’t know this feeling

No matter what, tomorrow always comes, so I don’t need to look forward to it

Until I met you, I thought that was normal

Since this journey has no destination, I can’t sing about a definite dream

The day I’ll arrive is still unseen, and there are times where I’ll meet with tears

It’s not so bad being all alone, that was me pretending to be tough

I’m sorry for that season, already, wrapped up in your mood

A story that could happen to anyone painfully pierces my heart

I’ll let my selfishness and sadness flow into the river

Everything in this world is necessary, an unneeded wind doesn’t blow

The moment I felt your mood, I decided to walk again

Whether it’s near or far, there’s no road where we can’t stumble across each other

A changing heart is also precious, I've realized that’s freedom

The night you gave me your feelings, I saw the true me

There’s just one thing I understand, I should fly through my own sky

When I’ve disappeared from this world, time will still continue to pass

The passion I want to embrace is etched on the current page

It’s not so bad being all alone, that was me pretending to be tough

I’m sorry for that season, already, wrapped up in your mood

The night you gave me your feelings, I saw the true me

There’s just one thing I understand, I should fly through my own sky

Romaji Lyrics:

ame no asa nantonaku soto wo nagameteita yo

One of the most famous lines Japanese literature is the opening of the Houjouki, a book about Buddhist philosophy and also implicitly the Genpei war:

行く川のながれは絶えずして、しかも本の��にあらず。

yuku kawa no nagare wa taezu shite, shikamo moto no mizu ni arazu

"The moving river's flow does not cease, and moreover it [the water] is not the original water"

Heraclitus?

Possible Greece -> India -> Japan transmission here? Like Fūjin.

the zhuangzhi doesnt literally say this but it does basically say it. so thats presumably the larger influence. also we get almost no greece->india transmission. but i Want To Believe
