Jokes on you

[tempenensis]

Good luck in your games! I don't tend to have much luck with the pulls haha, so I'm sending you all good vibes to get some nice event items ^^.

When you have time, I was wondering if you had hints for translation on Gojo's incantation! I loved it a lot, but don't know if it means anything in particular.

As far as I can tell the words are sort of showing the things that surround a space? Kyū tsuna (the translators i've seen either say nine points or ropes) makes me think of the ropes tied at temples, and temples can be both boundary and gateway but I don't have much context for this one...

Henkō I've seen as "polarized light" which seems to reference the blue+red requirements of purple maybe? But also is this image of a wave pulling in two directions, the word making it both divided and still referring to both possible "directions" at once, so it's a concept like his technique rather than a decision of direction.

The crow and shomyo could refer to the voice/message from heaven and the chant to heaven, which is another "conceptual" gap. Also Gojo is sort of answering a prayer while performing a chant, so he is both the messenger and supplicant maybe?

I don't really get "表裏の間" at all. I've seen it translated as "head and tail" "gap between within and without" and "chasm of front and back", google just says "front and back" but the last character translates to something like "interval". It evokes the concept of the end and the beginning being both as far apart from one another as possible, but also as close to on another as possible which seems close to the concept of purple but it feels like reading into it too much...

Either way, I hope that you rest well this weekend anyways!

raindrop anon

Lol, thank you, raindrop anon. I actually pulled FGO's newest servant, who coincidentally shares the same seiyuu as Nobara QuQd. Now I only need to somehow get Enojun into fgo lol

This is the original panel of Gojou's chanting, btw

九綱 (kukou) means "nine ropes". Nine is sort of sacred number here, might be taken from nine virtues of Shakyamuni (whom Gojou have a lot of reference to). And the ropes, just like you said, act as a boundary like in temple to mark sacred place. It could also refer to the state of intertwining as he does to Red and Blue to create Purple 偏光 (henkou), means "light polarization". I agree with your idea here, that it's most likely referring to Red and Blue and the joining of two techniques. 烏と声明 (karasu to shoumyou). means "crow and shoumyou". In opposite to their reputation in the west, crow in Japanese lore is actually thought as the harbinger of good omen. So messenger is right. The 声明 though, it'll read generally as seimei and does mean message. But here, it's read as shoumyou, which actually refer to a style of chanting in Buddhism. It is a style of chanting Buddhist scripture with music. So not ordinary message, but rather special one?? 表裏の間 (hyouri no hazama), translated literally would be "between the front and back". This could be taken literally but also could refer to one's face shown in public and private. So it might means the space between reality and imaginary, as his technique realizes "infinity" from imaginary concept

Hope this helps! Also, sending much luck to you too!

Backstory:

In this story a few cannon things have changed. Han, the jinchuuriki of the five tails Kukou, was mistakenly attacked by Suna ninjas during a time of extreme tension between Sunagakure and Iwagakure. While he was able to fight them off, Han was injured enough that the Gobi was able to break free from It's imprisonment and destroy some parts of Iwa and Suna.

The Gobi was recaptured by Iwa and hastily sealed inside a one year old Yura, who is also Han's nephew. As his mother and father quickly found out, because of the Gobi sealed inside of him Yura's body produced a lot of steam at random and burned whoever it touched. Because of this, Yura was taken away from his family and raised by Iwa ninja.

He was constantly trained as a child to become an Iwa weapon and eventually started going to the academy where he graduated at the age of 10. Even as a Gennin, Yura and his team were often tasked with more difficult missions, (something that his teammates disliked him for) and eventually made a name for himself as "Yura of the boiling Rock".

When it came time for the Chuunin exams, Yura was pushed into saying yes, however he did not pass because he was afraid of hurting people with the Gobi's power. He was put under more aggressive training for another year, and during that time he made his first contact with the Gobi after falling asleep under the light of the full moon. The Gobi was ramming itself against the cage it was held in and requested that Yura let it out. Yura (who was terrified mind you) said that he didn't know how and could get into trouble, the Gobi, who was surprisingly polite for a taled beast, spoke of it's distaste for humans and then kicked Ren out of the mind space. Ren was left confused by this encounter, but mentioned it to no one in fear of being labeled as more of a monster then they all though he was.

Yura was able to change the random intervals of steam into a type of defense (however he still produces steam uncontrollably when feeling a large emotion), and soon after came the second Chuunin exams that took place in Konohagakure. Once again, Yura was pushed towards going, however he was put on a different team with more experienced ninja.

The Chuunin exams go off the same as they do in cannon with the exception of Yura and his teammate Towa in the final round. However when the time came for the invasion Yura was forced to leave in case ether Yura got severely hurt and accidentally released the Gobi or it's chakra, or if the Gobi's chakra reacted negatively to the Ichibi's.

It is later revealed that Yura made it to chuunin level. During the two year time skip, after Gaara becomes the Kazekage he sets up a meeting with the Tsuchikage and members of Han's family to give a formal apology for the attack on Han that led to the partial destruction of both their villages. Yura finally finds out about his family and bonds with Gaara over them both being Jinchuuriki and trained as weapons.

Soon after, Yura leaves Iwagakura to go find Roshi, the jinchuuriki of the Yonbi who left to better understand and control the power of his beast. During his time away, Yura starts talking to the Gobi more and more, eventually learning that it's name is Kokuo and they learn how to tolerate each other. It is also noted that after the Fourth Great Shinobi War, Yura moves from Iwagakure to Sunagakure because of all the bad memories he has associated with his former village (even if he dislikes the desert heat, it gets very cold at night so it's tolerable)

Jutsu: (non canon)

Name: Steam clone

Hand signs: Dog, monkey, hare, tiger, clone seal

Description: Ren makes a clone made out of chakra infused steam that explodes upon impact, both blinding and burning the attacker.

Rank: C

Range: Close (0-10m)

Type: Boil Release

Name: Hidden Steam

Hand signs: none

Description: based off the hidden mist Technique, Ren creates a large cloud of steam that he hides in ether to run away or for a surprise attack. This works well with steam clone Technique.

Rank: C

Range: any

Type: Boil Release

Extra info:

(1) when Yura gets embarrassed, steam will literally come out of his ears.

(2) although he has a water and fire affinity, Yura knows very little water or fire jutsu because of Iwagakure's earth centric jutsu. Instead, he uses a lot of earth Release and boil Release

(3) dispite the fact that the steam that comes off of Yura's body burns others, Yura himself is never bothered by it

(4) while Yura is never burned by his steam, his body is still much warmer then normal people. This makes traveling to hot places very difficult as he overheats easily

(5) Yura is unable to wear certain clothing because the steam coming off his body will blow them up like a balloon

(6) Yura also can't wear metal if it's touching his skin as the steam will heat it up and burn him. This is why he wears thick bandages instead of mesh armor.

(7) much like how Naruto gains some of the Kyuubi's traits when using it's chakra, Yura gains red markings under his eyes and his teeth sharpen

(8) Yura is actually quite touch starved because of the isolation that comes with being a Jinchuuriki. Because of this, Yura is often very affectionate with his friends

Just a note, Han dosen't have a last name so I had to give him one. The name Fujisaki is spelled 不二咲 (fujisaki) meaning "two unblooming (flowers)". The "two" is both Han and Kokuo and the "unblooming" references how they were not able to work together and therefore not using each others abilities to their full potential.

today: woke up from a rare dream about disguising as a particular character & being super happy about it...only to be chased by some ppl for 99.9% of it

and now im struck with the gender euphoria esp transmasc can of worms, then thinking abt the costs & anxiety of "wat if i actually did this irl", & finally resignation ("fuck i can't look like that in my life cos transphobia_hell.png smfh")

(also prob some vague fickin shite but idk, it's been yrs since i had a dream like this)

[hypnosis-shitpost]

You: Bad Ass Temple

Me, an intellectual:

[ladymiyo]

Miyo has always had dreams. When she was at the Samori household, her dreams were her solace. Her mother was often there. But there were times of nightmares as well. But that seemed like all there was these days. She wishes she knew the cause. All she does know is that these nightmares wake up Lord Kukou.

She knows because every time recently, when these dreams seem almost like they will go too far... she opens her eyes to meet his. His eyes that are such a brilliant shade of blue. ( She could drown in them, she swears. )

But when she awakens, & fully takes in that he is there... Miyo finds herself melting into her arms. Tension seems to fall out of her the second she realizes she's on his chest. " Oh! Lord Kudou. I've woken you, " she murmurs, but she still holds onto him. Her hands are winding around him. He feels like comfort.

" Yes. " She admits quietly to his question. They are getting worse. She's been finding excuses to wake up eariler & go to bed later. " But... but I'm used to them, really! " But it's at that moment she can feel the tear falling down her face.

@ladymiyo ♡

It does not matter the place, nor the hour, nor the circumstance – there is but one thing of which Kiyoka Kudou is certain: he will always be there when Miyo needs him. Even in the dead of night, when she cries out in her slumber, Kiyoka will rush to her side. To comfort. To protect. Over and over – for as long as he is able.

Through the veil of sleep which shrouds his Lady Miyo, there is something that disturbs her. Something that haunts her right beneath the surface. Though it is seemingly beyond his reach, Kiyoka can sense it. Remnants of abilities made themselves more known, and something... has shifted. And while uncovering the source of this shift remains a priority, comforting her in this moment rests at the forefront of his mind. He kneels beside her shikibuton, his hand gingerly moving to brush her hair away from her face. She's trembling.

"Miyo," Kiyoka calls out to her, hoping his voice pulls her from the wretched visions that seem to plague her sleep. His hand gently moves from her cheek to her arm, and he gives it a squeeze and a soft shake. He'll scoop her up before she rouses – so she wakes up, safe, in his arms. "I'm here, Miyo."

And when those eyes open – those soft eyes of hers that he has fallen so hard and so deeply for – he will whisper, "Is it another nightmare?" He will hold her closer. Tighter to his chest, as if to say: I am here, Miyo. I am not going anywhere. Not now, not ever.

Ramuda's appearance in Bad Ass Temple's Drama Track

Ramuda's scene at the end of Bad Ass Temple's drama track actually scared me like he was coughing (not the good kind, like anime style "there's something wrong with him" cough) and saying that he does not have enough time left.

Also, he said that something big is gonna happen in the next battle like WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN OMG RAMUDA JUST BE SAFE & TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF CHILD

I'm genuinely worried ;-;

It's probably him smoking too much who knows

Or maybe he has an illness?

And Jakurai found out about it??

Jakurai prevented him from doing whatever he wanted to do and Ramuda didn't want to listen and maybe that's why they are bad terms???

How did this suddenly became a headcanon OMG I'm signing out Σ(っ°Д °; )っ

“Yeah, yeah,” Tamaki said, moaning. His words and groans started to meld together. He leaned further into Hikaru, almost resting his head on his shoulder. He was panting.

“Tell me how much,” said Hikaru lowly, smugly. Tamaki was nuzzling into his neck, sucking his skin. Hikaru hoped he would leave a mark. He sighed as Tamaki’s lips slid across his shoulders towards his collarbone, pushing his shirt down with his unoccupied hand. Hikaru couldn’t remember when his blazer had come off.

I...I just couldn't stop, 'Kay?

Here!

This scene from Arpeggios just wouldn't leave me be!

I had to okay?!
