[sirhamburrger]

hello, it is me, stellar! omg omg i love your writing event concept!

anyways, here are my top five from wheel 1: tsukishima, akaashi, kita, kuroo, daichi

then here are my top five from wheel 2 (omg i hope i understood the instructions correctly): lipstick marks on shirt collars, rolled-up shirtsleeves, flushed cheeks, a calloused palm against a soft cheek, warm sheets on cold skin

aaaaand the additional specifications: fluff, gn!reader, 2nd person, reader pov

thank you and i look forward to what you write! <3 •ᴗ•

game one, the treasury’s romance roulette (borders by @cafekitsune)

congratulations, player @stellar-headquarters, for completing the game! your matchup is... the (initially) mocking and aloof tsukishima kei, with your interactions centred around rolled-up shirtsleeves. now presenting...

sleeves (tsukishima x gn!reader) || wc: 844

you first see kei tsukishima roll his sleeves up in the autumn of 2003. you’re seven years old at the playground, and you’ve just scraped your knee on the ground. tadashi’s run home to get a plaster, so it's just you and the freakishly tall kid who more often than not comes off as standoffish.

tears prick at your eyes as the sting sets in, and you dab at them with the sleeve of your oversized fleece jacket. kei crouches nearby, his lanky frame awkward against the small jungle gym.

“stop crying,” he says bluntly.

“shut up,” you shoot back, because it’s the best rebuttal you, as a seven-year-old, can come up with. ignoring your protests, he pulls you to your feet, dragging you along to the water hose fitted at a corner of the playground.

in the nick of time, you realize what he plans to do.

“no!” you shriek. “it’s gonna hurt!”

with a sigh that feels too heavy for someone his age, he pushes up the sleeves of his sweater, revealing pale forearms that catch the slanted light of the setting sun. “if you don’t clean your wound, you’ll get an infection,” he says impatiently, as if he’s talking to a three-year-old. it makes you feel small. but he’s right.

so you simply grit your teeth and wince as cool water washes over your wounds, stinging your skin with pinpricks of hurt. you blink your tears away defiantly when he looks over at you, water cupped in his hands, to see how you’re holding up.

“all done,” he says after a short while. you exhale, thankful. “take this and dab your leg dry. gently.”

you sniffle, take the handkerchief, and mumble a quiet “thanks.” he says nothing else, standing stiffly by until tadashi returns.

it’s a chilly afternoon in early spring when you see him do it again, this time in the school garden. you're seventeen now, and kei is taller than ever - his tongue is also sharper than ever. you’re tending to the flower beds as part of your gardening club duties, and he’s there, having been begrudgingly roped in by tadashi.

“you’re doing it wrong,” he mutters, watching you struggle with a stubborn weed.

you glare up at him, sweat dotting your forehead. “help me, then, if you’ve got so much to say.”

he exhales sharply, like it’s the greatest inconvenience in the world, and steps closer. he shrugs off his club jacket, tossing it over a nearby bench, and rolls up the sleeves of his uniform shirt.

you hand him the small spade and look on as he kneels beside you. or more accurately, you look at his arms. pale as ever, but they've grown toned from volleyball practice. scars dot his forearms, no doubt from the monstrous spikes you've seen him block. his hands, large with slender fingers.

you wonder how they'd feel, laced with your own.

“see? like this,” he says, deftly loosening the soil around the weed before pulling it out in one smooth motion. frazzled, you snap back into the moment as he tosses it aside and looks at you, smirking faintly. “it's not that hard.”

you grumble under your breath but feel the corners of your lips twitch upward despite yourself.

“yeah, yeah, okay.”

by the summer you’re both twenty-two, he’s yours, and you’re his.

the picnic had been his idea, which surprised you. the sun is high, the sky clear, and the air sticky with midsummer heat. you sit on a checkered blanket spread out beneath a towering oak tree, the remnants of your shared lunch scattered between you.

kei leans back on one arm, the other hand working to unroll his sleeves. he’s wearing a simple linen shirt, the fabric light but not enough to fend off the heat entirely.

“hot?” you ask, trying not to laugh at the slight grimace on his face.

“obviously,” he deadpans, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose. he rolls his sleeves up to his elbows, revealing forearms with indents from his athletic compression sleeves. more toned than before. more scars than before.

but now you don't have to simply wish that you were holding his hand, and you don’t bother hiding your gaze any more. you’ve seen this gesture a hundred times before, but now, with the summer breeze brushing through his hair and the warmth of him beside you, it feels different, intimate.

he notices you staring and raises a blond eyebrow. “what?”

you grin, reaching out to run a finger lightly over his forearm. “nothing, just thinking about how annoyingly handsome you are.”

he scoffs, cheeks tinged pink, but there’s no hiding the tiny smirk playing at his lips. “you’re weird.”

“and you love me for it,” you shoot back, leaning into his side.

his smirk softens into a genuine smile, and he leans down to press a kiss to your temple. “yeah, i do.”

and for a moment, your little world is peaceful - perfect, even, with him in it.

best regards, the treasury office.

a/n: i’m currently overseas but as far as ik it’s about 2am in the phillipines (and singapore too!! as far as i know you’re the only mutual i share a timezone with) anyways i hope you wake up to this and love it!! excited for your krsn writing event as well <3

H:lots as textposts part 6 of?

[myfckingnameisnuwanda]

Made this one after seeing @joeyrecalde's tiktok on a compilation.

First Ajin post!! :D

[martianbugsbunny]

if nobody else is going to ship the Chrétien de Troyes version of Sir Gawain and Sir Kei then I will

[envythemouse]

Day 1 of rewatching ajin (ep 1-4)

Kei is way more empathetic than I remember, might be because I always rewatched the episodes wherein he's colder.

"But, wait, if he crashes at this speed, that guy will probably die."

This dude is out for your head and you're worried about accidentally killing him?

"I'm more worried about you, Kai."

Anyone notice how Kei acts way more vulnerable around Kai? No wonder people ship them so hard... Kai is the literal sun, guys. Finds out his childhood friend is in danger and doesn't think twice about going on the run together. The way he beat up all the guys out for Kei's blood with no hesitation? That's love, right there.

"I want to live a quiet, normal life."

"Run, Eriko! A ghost is coming!"

Did you see the way Kei tried to shield his sister with his own body?

He's so much softer than I remember and I think now I ship him with Kai even more...

Kei's sister is weird. She witnesses multiple people getting brutally murdered in front of her, gets kidnapped by the murderers and when they hand her a business card saying they're good guys she just believes them??

Also why does the song at the end of every episode sound like a love song... *cough* Keikai's love song.

As you can see, I snuck in some hidden animated gems before I part ways with Toonami completely for next year's T3 arc. There will be a T3 premiere of BLUE EXORCIST, plus a premiere for Mashle: Magic and Musicles the following weekend. I have decided to leave DRAGON BALL Z KAI on the Saturday Morning Animation Cram Session for the time being. The good thing is that I'm bringing back Rent-A-Girlfriend reruns, but it's just the first season as usual. If you want to watch later seasons of the series, consider subscribing to Crunchyroll for the time being.

Also, here's the update on T3 Express. I also decided to give MORIARTY THE PATRIOT the boot after 11 episodes, since I've always wanted to live-stream GHOST STORIES, despite the objectional content the dub has. Like Rent-A-Girlfriend and SWORD ART ONLINE, GHOST STORIES has been one of my holiday traditions, despite its horror themes. Not to mention I will be adding Nurse Witch Komugi-chan Magikarte to buy some time until it's the right moment to live-stream the 1995 STREET FIGHTER animated series. My dream lineup is to have X-MEN and STREET FIGHTER in the same lineup as a way to attract comic book and fighting game fans alike.

Regarding U-PICK, I delayed the next poll event since I've decided that I will run Bartender (2006) in place of INVINCIBLE FIGHT GIRL. I figured that I would do this since I wanted another program that would play in rotation during the (Winter) holiday season. Coincidentally, the SMACS run of Bartender will end its run the same time as Toonami's run of INVINCIBLE FIGHT GIRL, and this time, I won't perform a write-off marathon incident like with what I did to allow two SAILOR MOON episodes each T3 Express block moving forward.

Keitember 2024 Prompt 21

Can I get a dumb Kei where he stopped talking to Kai because he thought being around him was making him sick?

“So, why did you stop talking to him?”

“He made me feel sick.”

“Geez, that’s harsh.”

“No, I mean, he made me feel feverish. He made my heartbeat increase and my palms would get all sweaty. My stomach would feel weird too.”

“…you’re kidding, right?”

“At first, I suspected I developed an allergy specifically for him… but it didn’t fit the symptoms.”

“…”

“Then I decided I would become a doctor and find a cure for whatever it is.”

“How can someone with such a high IQ be so stupid?”
