SVSSS YQY Fan Fic Round up!

Ok, I finally have them all together! Please enjoy these fanfics, and if you have any to recomend that's not on here, feel free to say! I'll add it later!

First off, The YQY Weekend 2023 AO3 collection and The QiJiu Week 2023 I'm going to recommend as the entire pages! Great places to go find a fanfic to enjoy! Some might be double recomanded, but some should be unique!

Mouse On The Thorn by Lbhs_left_tiddie

On a mission, Yue Qingyuan comes across an omega child, who shares a name and a startling resemblance with his favourite shidi. Shen Qingqiu, however, denies knowing such a child, and make it very clear he wants nothing to do with him.

Without any family or home, Yue Qingyuan instead offers to take care of the child.

Palimpsest by Azzandra

Yue Qingyuan has one giant blindspot as a sect leader, and that's Shen Qingqiu.

But now a curse has made him forget Shen Qingqiu, and that changes some things.

gather jewels from graveyards by formerlyknives 

When strange rumours reach Cang Qiong, Shen Yuan is a little slow to investigate.

He lives to regret it.

The number children by Angry_gremlin_commando

Ten-year-old Mobei Wu, fifth son of the current Mobei-Jun, gets stranded in the human realm after one of his uncle's murder attempts. There he meets fifteen-year-old Yue Qi, fresh out of Lingxi caves and on the way to rescue Shen Jiu.

It turns out even ice demons aren't immune to Yue Qi's Big Brother energy. (This author has a good number of stories to check out! Go look at them!!)

A smile for the master, a snarl for the wolves by Angry_gremlin_commando

Shen Qingqiu and his young disciple Luo Binghe qi-deviate at the same time and swap bodies. It makes them understand some things about each other.

To Plant a Garden by SweetTiramisu

Yue Qingyuan spends so long beneath the earth that he becomes a part of it. Perhaps Shen Qingqiu will plant a garden in him.

Written for Qijiu Week Day 2: Touch Starvation.

bite your way to safety by AMereDream

The Geese come at a time that neither Shen Jiu nor Yue Qi considers ideal. They make it work. (This author has so many good fics! Go read them! This is just the one I chose to put on this list!)

You Were You, And I Was I by MissMegh

Shen Qingqiu and Yue Qingyuan qi deviate and turn into their teenaged selves. They don't know who they become. They don't remember the worst moments of their lives. They only know they're together again.

Pretty soon everyone on Cang Qiong Mountain knows they are, too.

Our Sect Leader Is A Baby! by dryingmangoes

Yue Qingyuan gets deaged. Somehow this changes everything.

Treading Well-Worn Paths by mofumofu

After Shen Qingqiu married Luo Binghe, Yue Qingyuan thought his role in the man’s life was over.

However, as he carried the child-sized lord of Qing Jing Peak in his arms, he was grateful for this unexpected opportunity to bond with the person he cherished most.

Shen Yuan, meanwhile, wondered desperately where the hell he was.

hey, share the weight a little by Tossawary

Shang Qinghua is miserable as an outer disciple of Cang Qiong Mountain Sect, doubtful that the plot will ever begin, when he finally runs into his first character. Yue Qingyuan is only a boy in desperate need of a helpful friend. Well, why shouldn't Shang Qinghua be that friend? A little investment now when they're young and Shang Qinghua might just be able to survive this world with the support of a sect leader.

It's definitely not because he's also in desperate need of a friend.

(He's definitely not expecting love.)

you're my number one by pennydaniels

Yue Qingyuan is granted a chance to have his heart's deepest desire made real by a mysterious goddess living in a small sect's private temple.

The Evening by kat8cha

Yue Qingyuan wakes up, he gets dressed, he goes to work, he goes to the gym, he goes to a party.

He pays people to tell him what to wear, people to tell him where to be, people to tell him what to do, and pays for someone else's engagement party.

A broken mirror restored by bunnyfication

Yue Qingyuan is hit over the head with the realization that he could ask Shen Qingqiu to marry him, Shen Qingqiu's suspicious mind cannot make sense of the sequence of events. Yue Qingyuan would never, would he? What is this, mind control??? (it's happiness, but neither of them has ever felt it before).

nobody, nobody told me by AMereDream

“Qingqiu-shidi,” he started. “Are you al—”

Xiao Jiu tugged, surprisingly strong for someone who had collapsed out of nowhere less than an hour before. Yue Qingyuan followed, partly out of surprise and partly because it was Xiao Jiu; of course he’d go wherever Xiao Jiu wanted him to be.

He found himself being dragged onto the bed, only the thin sheets separating him from Xiao Jiu's body. His breath caught in his chest, and he clenched his eyes shut.

Xiao Jiu's bony elbows dug into his chest, his thin — too thin, having skipped too many meals even for someone who didn’t need to eat — shoulders curved to meet Yue Qingyuan’s body.

His long hair tickled Yue Qingyuan’s face. He smelled like the honeyed soap he washed his hair with. Yue Qingyuan inhaled covertly, deep and greedy.

 

One morning, Shen Qingqiu woke up a changed man. Yue Qingyuan is left trying to figure out what happened to make him so relaxed and affectionate.

🦇🎃 WEEKLY FIC ROUND-UP 🎃🦇

All the fics I’ve read and really enjoyed in the past week-ish. Reminder: This list features any and all ratings and themes. Please look at tags and warnings on ao3 before reading.

Merlin

The Hunt for Red Emrys by darkbluedark

King Arthur sets out to keep his promise to the spirit of the Druid boy by repealing his father's ban on magic. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done, for reasons including but not limited to the following:

(1) He can't change the law until he understands magic better, but no sorcerer is willing to explain magic to him until he changes the law;

(2) The sorcerers all have some strange obsession with Merlin, which is awakening all sorts of feelings in Arthur that he really doesn't fancy examining too closely;

(3) He is starting to feel like the butt of some Druid-population-wide inside joke involving the mysterious phenomenon called Emrys; and

(4) Oh yeah, Morgana is still trying to kill him.

Thus he embarks on a journey of discovery, diplomacy, accountability, and self-improvement, and maybe even falls in love along the way.

Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-Kun

Kalego-sensei is...dead? by IcyPheonix

The Misfits come to school one day to discover that they have, a substitute teacher. They decide that this can only mean one thing; Kalego-sensei, has died.

He hasn't but that's not gonna stop them from pretending he has of course.

SVSSS

The Moon's Beloved Shadow by mofumofu

Shen Qingqiu is a man who hides his twin brother from the world with the ferocity of a phoenix-eyed mother crane.

Shen Yuan is a helpless transmigrator who wishes Airplane-bro had given even a single bit of backstory for this side character he's inhabiting!

Luo Binghe isn't doomed to face the Endless Abyss, but he is forced to confront something infinitely more frustrating: an overly protective brother.

Natsume Yuujinchou

What Colors Do You See In This Monochrome World by mermorgie.

Natori's voice brought him back to the present. "You alright there, Natsume?" The look the exorcist was giving him was warm and a tad concerned. Natsume gave him a small, but earnest smile. "I'm fine, Natori-san. Just a bit nervous." This was the truth. He had no idea why the head of the Matoba Clan invited him this time, but he was sure that the man was up to no good.

Or: Natsume gets invited to an exorcist meeting. He is not too happy about it, but at least the view is great.

Harry Potter

Three's Family by darkbluedark

It’s May 1979 and the Order has just apprehended a pair of mysterious wizards who look remarkably like a Potter and a Malfoy. Naturally, James Potter and Sirius Black are called in to identify the strangely familiar strangers and determine their backgrounds and loyalties.

(This would be a lot easier if their captives weren’t convinced everyone they talk to is dead. It would also be easier if they didn’t spend half their bloody time bickering.)

-

“Just ask them questions only they would know the answer to,” Malfoy suggests.

“There’s not a single thing that I know about either of them from the first war that any old Death Eater couldn’t find out.”

“How is that possible?” Malfoy huffs. “He’s your father!”

“Am I or am I not famously an orphan?” Potter snarls.

Once More Unto The Boggart by darkbluedark

Professor Lupin let out his breath very slowly. “So this is why you think you’ve been struggling to make progress with the Patronus charm? Because a part of you wants to let the dementor close, in a way, in order to hear your parents?”

Harry nodded again, though more guiltily this time. “I want to let the boggart out, just once, and, er, not cast the charm."

Those Who Have Seen by darkbluedark

Only those who have seen death can see thestrals.

It turns out, thestrals look different for those who have seen Death.

raine fursuit update #1

decided i wanna post these as i make raine for fun. did you know theres a severe lack of desaturated blue greys out there for fur colors? Well. I've had to buy fur samples from EIGHT companies in order to find fur colors for her that are somewhat acceptable.. though not correct enough to my satisfaction. FWIW, howl and canfur are the highest quality to the touch for me out of all of these. I'll probably be going with mofumofu aquamarine+moon white or aquamarine+blue gray, though if fabric love gifts was a higher quality fur id do 15 instead of aquamarine. All of the big fur companies that furries buy from DO NOT sell the fucking colors i need, so I have to resort to much more niche companies. While not as desaturated as I'd like.. I think it's tolerable

2024 Winter Anime Lineup (Master Post?)

First post for a new blog where I'm going to try and record my opinions, break downs, comparisons, and various degrees of squees about anime!

The lineup for this year's Winter isn't as packed as the 2023 Fall season was, but that's always the case. It sure is still causing my To Watch List to keep getting longer... but more importantly because it's so lacking in big name shows one of my most anticipated shows gets to shine...

DEFINITE WATCH LIST

SOLO LEVELING - I've been waiting for the solo leveling anime since BEFORE the anime was ever announced, re-reading the webcomic/manhwa multiple times and just HOPING someone would animate these gorgeous shadows. It is a very well done power fantasy with only squints of romance, and while I'm sad it's been localized to Japan (and all the fuckery that comes with of Korean erasure), I got to see the first two episodes at the World Premiere and I. Am. So. Hype.

APOTHECARY DIARIES existed completely outside of my head space, and my initial response at the premise was, Raven of the Inner Palace? I wasn't actually expecting much from it and then the first few episodes BLEW ME OUT OF THE WATER and now I'm obsessed.

DUNGEON MESHI is one of those manga I've heard about, but tried reading and it was too slow paced for me (I say, currently slogging through The Boat Arc (TM) of Hunter x Hunter), but the anime gives it life and I think I'll enjoy this alot. I love cooking anime and fantasy, so this will be fun!

KYUJITSU NO WARUMONOSAN is just straight up Crow Bait. That curly bowl cut, the gap moe of a villain who loves cute things, and voiced by fricken Shintarou Asanuma!!! (I know him as Samatoki from HypMic, other's will know him from the "Fucking Bullshit" song from Carole and Tuesday, and a host of other roles) Also, all the pretty sentei / power ranger boys!!! I'm so hype, in the most relaxed chill way for this.

UNDEAD UNLUCK is so weird in that it involves a lot of random sexualization, but it doesn't make me uncomfortable like Seven Deadly Sin's random gropping did, maybe because there is actual implied consent involved. Fuuko and Andy are Poly and I love them for it. And the world building is TOP NOTCH.

FIRE HUNTER - If you haven't seen season one, you are missing out. A darkly beautiful post-post apocolyptic alternate Japan-esque world, from the POV of a young girl, and a young genius boy having to let himself be manipulated by capitalism to survive, and gods? a magic system? but so soft that it's barely there even while being a full on fantasy story.

High Hopes or Taking My Time

SASAKI AND PEEPS- What a weird little show that has the weirdest combination of isekai, the most "this is fine." salaryman, and a fricken' CHUNIBYO BIRB. I've already watched the first episode and it feels like there are two magic systems going on and its a bit confusing, so we will see how this plays out!

WITCH AND BEAST - I keep wanting to call this Beauty and the Beast, because the beast is a rad bad ass looking lady, and the witch is certainly one of the most beautiful undertakers I've ever seen. I think he carries his boyfriend around in his coffin backpack, so I'm hype to see WTF is up with that >o>

DOCTOR ELISE - Why do manhwa I read keep randomly popping up as anime??? This is a vilainess turned good story, and supposedly the market is full of these, but none of them are the good ones I've read, so I did a double take of happiness when I saw this. THIS ONE IS GOOD. An spoiled princess gets killed, is reborn in Korea and becomes a doctor, only to be killed by Airplane-kun, and winds up back in her old body where she decides to become a doctor again! The prince is even not your typical icy asshole! (although maybe he is a little at the beginning..)

CHERRY MAGIC - THIS FRICKEN ENGLISH TITLE GOOD LORDS ABOVE. I'm dying. I'm also excited to see this one play out and I'll be hiding behind a pillow giggling like a mad lad while I do. It's been a while since there's been a good BL that's not SAD (looking at YOU Given and Banana Fish, but avoids eye contact with Sasaki and Miyano) so hopefully it doesn't dip into that territory. Going into this one mostly blind as to the premise apart from the obvious Gap-Moe with the love interest.

SHANGRI-LA - I started watching this on a whim as the Fall season started to wind down, and found it to be a good potato chip to have on in the background. I'll probably continue watching it, but not weekly.

FRIEREN - This is what I watch when Jujutsu Kaisen hurts too much to keep going. I'm only a few episodes in, so it'll be slow going, but I think it's about to pick up it's pacing a little where I'm at, and it'll be good comfort food to have.

MAYBES

Mashle Season 2 - The pacing was SUPER WEIRD in the first season that despite all of it's shitting on the properties of she-who-shall-not-be-named, the end of the season kind of fell flat. I wanted to like it more, so I'm hoping Season 2 does that for me.

Fluffy Paradise - I love isekais with an adult in a child's body pretending to be just super smart, and this doesn't feel like it's going to do that, but still looks cute none the less. I'll give it a few episodes, but will quickly drop it if my watch list is too long.

Ishura - Is this what life is like for D&D Characters when they hit level 20? I HOPE SO. I LOVED the Legend of Vox Machina, and hope this has the same sort of vibes, but I'm going in blind!

The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic - Love me some fucked up healing magic. Please DO NOT let this be ANYTHING like Redo Healer. I refuse to watch that even those FUCKED UP HEALING MAGIC IS FUN. But this. This I want to see. Please let this also not be a harem. I'm fine with ~vibes~ but please no actual harem that's not actually Poly.

Blue Exorcist - THIS IS TOTALLY OUT OF NOWHERE. HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?????? I remember the last season feeling like a disappointment? But can't remember why? Gonna see if this is worth re-watching the seasons from like... a decade ago.

Delusional Monthly Magazine - I watched the PV and had no fucking clue what was happening. Therefore, I will be watching a few episodes to sate my curiosity about WTF OR possibly just get myself even more confused and rage quit. lmao

I've watched the first few episodes of a couple of these, and will be watching a few more tomorrow, so Next Goal: Post a write up or three about what I think!

[twistedchristianscience]

forgot to post about him here BUT I finished my silly little Vashraptor fursuit just before Emerald City Comic Con (and Vancoufur)

except he's not actually "finished", just finished enough for me to wear him to those cons for a bit. he still needs a few more details, namely feetpaws, the stitches on his torso, a more raptor-like hand for his prosthetic, and claws. plus I'm not totally happy with his ears so I might redo them. I'll make legs and different prosthetics eventually, but that probably won't be for a while.

as per usual of raptors, he looks pretty silly at any angle other than side profiles, so its a little difficult to get good photos while im actually wearing him.

more ramblings + WIP shots under the cut because this was the most complicated project ive ever done and im insane

so far, he's taken about $700 worth of materials and 150 hours but I'll make another post with updated numbers when he's fully finished.

the headbase is made of EVA foam, with a hinge from WeaselsOnEasels (covered with that pink fabric because I accidentally put it on the inside, rip) and 40 teeth from DreamVisionCreations. the eyes and antorbital fenestrae have .5mm computer fan pvc mesh-- his vision and ventilation are fantastic, rivaling my suit with a 3d printed base, but fine details like writing and text are lost as per usual with vision meshes (that's not normally much of a problem for me with the furry conventions I go to annually and know the layout of, but it made navigating ECCC a nightmare since ive never been before and the venue is HUGE. I imagine ill have the same struggles if I go to sakuracon-- anyone wanna be my handler for that? lol). the unfurred section is coated with Plastidip and spraypainted dark brown. most of his mane is zippered on both sides so I can remove it and make interchangable versions (I plan to make spiked-up hair in yellow, half yellow/black, and fully black) while the tip of it is magnetic so it lies flat against the base. his tongue is also magnetic. I was originally going to make magnetic eyelids, but in all honesty, I might prefer to make them velcro as they tend to be easier to adjust + more secure than magnetic ones.

the part I hated making the most was his tail, not because it's bad, but because when I was almost done with it my dog got to it and chewed it apart.

you can see there's an awkward little bump along the top near where the light yellow and black fur connect-- when im wearing the tail that bump makes it look broken. but since he's so mangled anyway it can just be considered part of his design since I didn't add any scars to it

the tail feathers were a bit of a nightmare to make but the progress shots are cool

the part I loved making the most, and that im most proud of, is the bodysuit. I thought the scars were going to be a nightmare to sew, but they were actually the most fun and I love how they turned out!! he will be getting an interchangable mane down his back as well but I didn't have the time to finish it. I might also extend the shoulders a little for a better fit, particularly the left as theres a noticeable gap between the suit and the prosthetic as it is.

I showed this video of the pattern to a friend at When Furballs Strike a few weeks back and she told me I was insane. she is correct, and I'm fairly sure me actually finishing the bodysuit in a week only proves it further. but I did it anyway, and I had fun doing it.

Fur used: Yellow (Hair/Mane, Tail Feathers): HowlFabric Buttercup Luxury Shag Light Yellow (Main Body/Face): MofuMofu Mi Yellow Long Fur White (Neck, Top Surgery Scars, Tail): BigZFabric White Short Shag Brown (Ears, Tail Feathers): HowlFabric Fossil Grey Luxury Teddy Black (Arm, Tail): HowlFabric Natural Black Luxury Teddy Scars: HowlFabric Salmon Minky Tongue: HowlFabric Banana Minky Inner Mouth: HowlFabric Vanilla Minky Inner Ears: BigZFabric White Minky

note about the mofumofu fur: it's pretty thin, if you trim too much you can see the backing through it. HOWEVER. this proved to be a positive for the bodysuit, as it's MUCH more breathable than thicker furs like howl's and bigz's. (for the one day I could make it to ECCC and two days of Vancoufur, I wore this suit for 10-12 hours straight with a sweatshirt underneath and never felt like I was overheating, the minky scars most likely helped with it but STILL??) it also doesn't get as matted. whether or not it's worth the $55/yd price depends on what you need it for, if it's within your price range and you're particularly sensitive to heat, I'd say go for it. I only needed a yard for this as I'm kindof a little guy (5'5", 120lbs) so it was worth it for me.

Should You Watch The Anime?

(Speed Run Winter 2024 Edition!)

I watch too many shows a season to really want to dig deep and review all of them, but since we're a few weeks into the Spring 2024 anime season, I figure I can give you a rundown of the Winter 2024 season!

I'm only talking about shows I finished, and maybe only a couple with sentences on my judgement and some flavor text. If you want to know more about my thoughts for a specific anime listed, let me know and maybe's I'll do a full review on it.

So, Should You Watch The Anime?

In no particular order...

Fluffy Paradise (Isekai de Mofumofu Nadende suru Tame ni Ganbattemasu)

No. It's not a bad show, but not really worth the time either - unless you just have to see a little girl petting random animals and monsters.

The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic (Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata)

Yes, if you like isekai that take their time building things up. Fun premise and fun characters, though it doesn't have a conclusive ending.

Mashle season 2

Yes, though only if you watched season 1 already. Still a lot of dumb shounen fun, but now with the best OP of the year.

7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy! (Loop 7-kaime no Akuyaku Reijou wa, Moto Tekikoku de Jiyuu Kimama na Hanayome Seikatsu wo Mankitsu suru)

Yes, if you're looking for a good romance anime with interesting characters/world. I liked it so much I read all the translated light novels out so far.

Mr. Villain's Day Off (Kyuujitsu no Warumono-san)

Yes, if you're looking for a unique slice of life show. It has chill vibes most of the time, but also some heartfelt stuff. And pandas.

High Card season 2

Not really, even if you watched season 1. They added some weird twists and barely resolve character arcs.

Snack Basue

Maybe, but only if you like kuso-anime and can appreciate assholes as they converse. I laughed at this one more than I thought I would, but it ain't for everyone.

Delusional Monthly Magazine (Gekkan Mousou Kagaku)

No, but it's decent for an anime aimed at a younger audience. Just a little too silly for most of the run, so I couldn't get invested.

Bucchigiri?!

Absolutely Yes if you love dudes that kick each other's asses while feeling like they should be making out with each other instead. This was my favorite show of the season, but I also have unique tastes, lol.

Brave Bang Bravern! (Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern)

Maybe, as long as you jive with the main protagonist and don't guess the big twist by episode 3. Guessing the twist so early kind of made the rest of the show a slog. I did want to like this one, but it was just okay in my book.

Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard (30-sai made Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni Mareru Rashii)

Yes, if you're cool with Boys Love. Despite the absurd premise, the show conveys adult romance fairly well - and the couple actually communicates with each other!

Shangri-La Frontier (Shangri-La Frontier: Kusoge Hunter, Kamige ni Idoman to su)

Yes, especially if you're the type of person who watches Let's Plays. I am that person, so I had a lot of fun watching the progression through the game, especially with the great animation.

Metallic Rouge

No, unless you're really hard up for some sci-fi anime. I wanted to like this one, but it failed on a lot of levels.

NN is holding little Mofumofu in his arm with a baby bottle in another. "You should gotten your own story began like a year ago, why are you still a baby >:(" he frown and dislike the idea of this big baby who just look at him and enjoy the drink which is mocha milk tea in a baby bottle.

"your so ugly." The angel bloop the baby nose and the other held his finger with his feathery ears and tearfully look at NN who speak such bad word-- to himself. Cause technically NN is calling himself ugly by calling mofumofu ugly.

"..." NN cannot help but get inked annoyance as he understands those eyes very well but he can't really let mofumofu cry even it's a very rare and odd thing. Cause it mean the other child of the gallery will cry as well-- Morpho little brother.

"geez...." He sigh before he think of something he can help calm him down but only thought of singing a lullaby to the little fellow, as he did so. The little moth slowly sleep.

"what beautiful voice you have, hanii." You suddenly said as you been long watching him invisible till he put the little fellow to sleep.

"So I can sing for you forever." He give a side glance to you as easily utter a comeback.

"What beautiful hair you have, hanii~" you compliment him again as you held his hair as you seat beside him with his big mochi pillows that have ur face in it.

"So you can freely style it, I'll be your barbie doll. Omae" He stared at you who start to comb his long beautiful hair. He is still holding carefully the little Mofumofu who's sleeping peacefully in his arms.

You thought of another thing to compliment him and look at his eyes. "What a hopeless love you have..." Cause you have a very bad taste -- you want to add but he flicked your forehead before he can say more.

"it's not hopeless you stupid spouse of mine." He rolled his eyes as you ruined the moment with some out of place comment you have.

" Aww ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ I'm not stupid.. at least not that much >:((" you cried false tears before you chuckle and thought of something. "You sure about that?" He raise a brow and you give him a nasty look. How dare he.

You pout and rolled your eyes. He just laugh as you pouting but realize your being dramatic and laugh with him.

"Oh i forgot to let you meet someone." You almost (totally did not ) forgotten about something important.

"huh? Someone?" A rival??????? His mind already prepare to write someone name on his death note once you said it is a rival.

"it's a secret~ come with me hanii~" you stood up and held his free hand as he made sure to not drop mofumofu down or wake the baby by your heist. Yet he found himself in another set of cloths and falling from the sky holding your arms.... Which is shaking.

"good lord." He sigh as he realize you still refuse to fly even to this day, he made you carry mofumofu before he quickly carried you in his arms.

in that moment he remembers the past where you and him went flying, you instructing him how to fly even so you refuse to fly for your own good.

What sweet and normal days it was been without thought of anything else but to be able to spend time with you.

Six set of golden wings spread behind him as he fly in the sky holding you in his arms and zooming over the clouds like in the past yet this is the present and nothing is like the past.

He thought of it as he stared at sunrise from distance and give you a gaze for a moment.

'maybe something stays the same... My feelings for you. Before and now.' he thought with a soft smile in his face, flying over the clouds as you held onto him with mofumofu sleeping like a rock in your arms not caring what happened to his surrounding.

...

He froze on his step when he realize where you two are going too. He ask the location you wanna go to and he cannot believe the familiar place as you two arrive at the residents.

"...omae...." He called to you, unconsciously reaching out to held your hand as he look at the front and saw the surname [ Oukawa ]

"...hmm? What's wrong ? Ahaha. Since chaos era is over everyone is back to living through they do know a thing or two about some things like the world almost getting destroyed and people rescuing and saving the day. They don't remember other things. " You smile at him.

"ah, that's reminds me. I did come back to the period where Rinne amagi was attacked by chaos to save his life in my current present self so everyone is alive :DD." You beam and pulled the nervous NN to the door bell and was about to ring it when the door open in its own and a beautiful woman come and hugged NN.

"my sweet precious boy! You finally come and visited!" NN eyes widen as he stared at the unfamiliar woman who hug him do warmly, he felt maternal warmth, love and care from her. She's.... His mother who he never meet.

Even so he decided to be heartless about everything else, to be cruel to make sure you return to existence to the point he forgotten his own blood.

He cannot help but tear up as his mother who he never meet in this universe hugs him and ask him about his day.

"Oh my... My sweet precious baby is crying..." His tears is wipe by his mom who tried to comfort him but he felt himself lost and loosen up and hugs her. Crying like a child.

He felt sense of guilt being selfish and forgetting about them all those years. He lost count of the times he watch from the sideline his au ended in distortion, lives snatch away in a blink of eyes he felt numb by it.

He gotten use to ignore it and think it's normal yet he realize his probably just kidding his own emotion cause of grief and his heart screams to care all about you. He don't mind the later part thru.

...

You look at the scene as NN seems to be in the zone to notice you slipping away but his dad sure notice you leaving the moment you take a step back with a pink haired baby in your arms.

Yet he sigh as he realize his son did not as his still crying in his mother arms. Well he never meet his mother even once. He just hope his son won't go crazy later when he realize your missing.

Plot Summary: After meeting an untimely end due to overwork, a young Japanese woman is offered a deal: be reincarnated in a fantasy world where their god is trying to decide if humans are worth the trouble in exchange for one special skill. Based on her love of all animals, the woman asks for the ability to communicate and pet every species out there, and her wish is granted – with the caveat that humans won't be nearly as keen on her as her fluffy and scaly pals. Reborn as the youngest daughter of a powerful noble family, little Nefertina thus begins her life with one goal: to pet them all. That “do humans deserve to exist” thing will just have to wait. (from manga) link to anime: https://www.crunchyroll.com/series/GZJH3D858/fluffy-paradise

This is BL challenge for you (if you choose to accept them).

1.a) Please write your top 3 or top 5 favorite tropes in BL.

b) From each trope, write at least 3 BL that you love.

(Feel free if you want to write the reasons or not of why you love them).

2. a) What is the first BL that make you want to know more about and eventually love BL?

b) What is that one BL that have a special place in your heart (for whatever reason)?

The BL can be in in the form of manga, manhwa, manhua, books, tv series or movies.

Thanks so much if you want to answer this long ask.

Okay, this one feels a bit more like homework. Very minutely in the air of dudebro asking if a girl has ever seen anything other than shojo or something, though I doubt that's where this comes from. Mostly in the sense that I don't think I confidently remember the difference between a trope and a plot device? Let's hope for the best as I certainly never mind length. *gestures vaguely to both solicited and unsolicited rants*

I will include a disclaimer that I don't just read BL? I know that's the subject of the ask and that I definitely pontificate on MLM ships a ton but I won't say that I've read enough stories that didn't, in some way, give me an ick with toxicity, coercion or straight up assault to, in good faith, recommend them. There were probably more tropes I could have listed out but this should suffice. I tried to avoid things I've recommended before but such things can't always be helped.

TROPES (probably?)

Opposites Attract (specifically Sunshine/Grumpy, extrovert/introvert)

Naked Color by Amamiya 🌶️ (manga, complete) - to be fair, considering they are friends with benefits on the front end, it kind of feels more yaoi-territory but at the same time, navigating the awkwardness of a physical relationship when you want more without jeopardizing what you've already got? Valid. There's a few panels that get a bit dicey but, otherwise, you've got self sufficient rich guy x laissez-faire can barely be bothered to care for himself artist.

This Wonderful Season With You by Atsuko Yusen (manga, complete) - wholesome and endearing story of acceptance between a nerd and a former jock with a sprinkle of healing. Love to see it.

Enemies to Lovers (specifically Hero/Villain, Work Adversaries, etc.)

Contradict by Ohshima Kamome 🌶️ (manga, complete) - rivals, seemingly with the same role model, are locked in competition for years and unknowingly making each other better firefighters. Does this sound like anyone else we know? In BL in particular, the way they go from enemies to suddenly sleeping together is always whip lash inducing but here we are.

Ibitsu na Koi no Seesaw Game by Chiaki Kashima 🌶️ (manga, complete) - so this one is on the fence of problematic but, if you commit objectively funny crimes, you should not see jail time. Such is the case in this game of stray cat and mouse between a talented thief and police inspector with a unique arrangement.

Second Chance Romance

Kimi wa Natsu no Naka by Nagisa Furuya (manga, complete) - talk about the long game, this series (and the subsequent continuation) follows two high school students who seemingly share a love of movies. While it creates an impetus to get to know one another, it's not the only thing that bonds them.

There Are Things I Can't Tell You by Edako Mofumofu 🌶️ (manga, complete) - Probably the angstiest piece on the list but overall a tender story of how two childhood friends take the long way round to finally understanding their feelings and one another. Both characters are imperfect despite appearances and I think the care around developing their back stories and the impact it has on their ability to accept love is ultimately what I really like about it. Plus the fact that you can know someone for so long and so intimately and still not understand them.

Stuck Together

Keep Holding On by Kom (manhwa, complete) - okay, kind of a stretch and this more hits unrequited love, friends to lovers, etc. but I suppose when your moms were friends before you were born and you're forced to be friends from toddlers to high school, some aspect of that is "stuck together". One of the characters chalks it up to fate but you can decide.

Fukouchuu no Shiawase by Enzou 🌶️ (manga, complete) - A guy can't be lucky all the time so, when the universe demands balance, it pairs him with the God of Disaster. Somewhat domestic bliss ensues? Honestly, this was just a really funny read. Picture Noragami except Yato's love interest isn't a literal child. Also, take all the angst over his past and identity and shave it down to like.. 1/16th.

Idiot(s) in Love

Kimi ni Koisuru Hazu ga Nai by Shina Suzaka 🌶️ (manga, complete) - Pretty boy otaku with an embarrassing secret gets discovered by a coworker who seemed to be a bit cold toward him initially. Excited to have a friend to share his interest with, he doesn't even see the feelings his new friend so obviously has for him. Or recognize that the shojo romance he's been idealizing is right in front of him.

Sonna Me de Mite Kure by Icchokusen Moukon (manga, complete) - This is what would happen if Tatewaki Kuno from Ranma 1/2 was ever humbled, even once. Popular school president whose inner and outer monologue convinces us he's the shit happens to notice a background character that he becomes increasingly more aware of. Like, it's a BL, sure? But really, it's just silly and a bit over the top which makes it a funny read.

Atarashii Joushi wa Dotennen by Dan Ichikawa (manga, complete) - One, this story is funny even though it's not quite a BL? Like, affection is expressed but not acted on and I really like that this is a story about care or intimacy without being entirely centered around confession, angst, sex, etc. It's not a coming out story, it's just about the working relationships between a pod of dudes that have a silly appreciation for one another. Also, I think this has been recently animated which I'll for sure have to check out as I think I'd only gotten to like chapter 12?

Emotional Scars

Banana Fish by Akimi Yoshida (anime, complete) - Immediately, this is not a BL story and the person who tells you it is hates you and wants you to suffer. There's a laundry list of trigger warnings which, going in, if you think it'll be a silly goofy love story, you will be sorely disappointed and probably traumatized. But, even so, the connection that Ash and Eiji have is and will always be love. Soulmates. Despite everything Ash had been through, the sins he burdened himself with, Eiji never shied away from him and welcomed him with open arms. Despite the overall violence of the show, there was never any present between them which is integral to why I will still stand by the pairing. Additionally, in real life, terrible things happen to people that are outside of their control. There should be love stories that heal/forgive that, too.

NEONSCANDAL LORE

That's actually pretty recently with the Sasaki to Miyano anime which turned into reading the entire manga and, subsequently, opened the floodgates for other stories.

Honorable Mention: When Yuri on Ice crossed from sports anime to BL. You could definitely argue that that was the spark.

Back during my initial anime era, I think there weren't as many BL or MLM stories that were accessible, although a lot of anime wasn't accessible back then. You still had queer characters with Sailor Moon (main and side characters), Fushigi Yugi, Inuyasha (side characters), Ranma 1/2, etc. though I can't say it was always positive. The whole Junjo Romantica universe comes to mind and, I think, was reminiscent of yaoi back then which I wasn't into. BL wasn't really a thing. I think it should also be said that, back then, I also wasn't particularly seeking it out.

Subsequently, I think Sasaki to Miyano has a special place in my heart. Like, the whole conflict of the series is Miyano reconciling his feelings toward a very straightforward Sasaki without the angst of unsupportive or bigoted friends/side characters. Good for them. The whole story was just delicately rendered, I really enjoyed it. I circle back on this idea of engaging with queer content as a means of coming into your own identity (which Sasaki to Miyano demonstrates) because it resonates and the series created the path for that, in a way.

Did Canonseeker mention in that video that you're a pedophile who's horny for underage fox-girls? Because I feel like that's definitely something folks should know about you.

This "Ask Me" was almost certainly written by Lilith Fairen. Much like Canonseeker, Lilith Fairen has no respect for my block button. I don't want to see any messages or posts from you. Shoo.

By the way, I find fluffs absolutely adorable and I love it when character designs make an effort to have a variety of animal ears and tails. Whether they're male or female, I don't care. I love fluffs and I love mofumofu. (Translator's Note: Mofumofu is often referred to the act of hugging a fluffy tail, but it literally translates to "fluffy" or "fluffiness". It can also refer to soft things like fur or feathers.)

I'm also ace. :/

[isekai-crow]

Fluffy Paradise / Isekai de Mofumofu Nadenade suru Tame ni Ganbattemasu Episode 1

Overall Score so far: 6/10

This was a cute fluffy introduction almost deserving of it's name.

To sum it up: Lady dies and is Reborn with the power of MOFUMOFU NADENADE / Fuffy Petting, in exchange for what will probably end up being her attempts at erradicating slavery and prejudice against the Furry Community.

Fluffy Animal Count: 2+

We got a lovely fluffy pupper who is our MC's companion, a giant fluffy Sky Tiger which is a super special rare pet of one of the princes (because of course), and... not much else yet apart from random forest animals. That dragon sure ain't fluffy.

The animation itself has some wonky faces and obviously doesn't have a big budget, but they sure do know how to make animals looks super fluffy! I want to mofumofu nadenade toooooo

The plot is... meh so far.

Episode 1 Spoilers/Review Below

It starts out with your typical Isekai death, not Truck Kun but Karoushi/Death from Over Working. Unfortunately, the way it played out was boring and typical of the genre, in the sense that I shouted "THAT'S NOT HOW KAROUSHI WORKS YO" while it was happening, lol.

Shiney Isekai Lights happen, and she gets to speak with god!!

Whose like: I can't change the way you (will?) die but if you help me, I'll let you be reborn with special powers! (WHICH MEANS SHE'S GOING TO DIE FROM OVERWORK AGAIN?? or does it just mean she can't go back to her old body??)

and suddenly she has a happy and rich Ducal family looking down on her and using magic to bestow her with her new name, Nefertina. Jump cut to her 3rd birthday, and her loving family giving her gifts and playing with her and showing off the forest animals treating her like a Disney princess, and her dog that has Spy x Family Bond level intelligence.

Then one day her mother has to go to the palace for work, and everyone else in the family is at school or at work themselves. Mom can't leave her alone and wonders what to do.

Question 1: WHERE ARE THE SERVANTS, THE MAIDS, THE WET NURSE THE CHILD OF A DUKE WOULD ABSOLUTELY HAVE???

Mom says she can't leave Nefertina alone, takes her with her to the palace, and then PROCEEDS TO LEAVE A 3 YEAR OLD ALONE ON A SOFA IN A HALLWAY WITH NOTHING TO DO.

Said 3 year old proceeds to jump out the window, and wander off into the palace forest/garden. YOU SHOULDA JUST LEFT HER WITH THE DOG, MOM. What did you THINK would happen.

AND WHERE ARE ALL THE PALACE SERVANTS???

I get this is a low budget show, but surely they can pay for servants??

Of course this is all just a setup to have her meet the (13 year old?) prince and his Sky tiger, and of course she doesn't realize he's the prince and they banter in a way that makes me really hope that this is not a love interest for future Nefertina, at least not until much further in the future. (Please let him take on a big brother/care taker role, p l e a s e)

Skip to mom and dad's scolding, then skip to Parent Observation Day at Magic School!

The test for how to direct soldiers was actually really cool! Use magic and vocal commands to direct miniature soldier dolls. Of course Big Bro defeats the big bully despite his underdog position.

Cut to Big Sis's test, where she has to use magic to subdue a summoned monster. But OH NO (fake scream) a RED DRAGON has appeared!! How could this have happened?? (/s so hard)

Small Child Nefertina is somehow able to JUMP THE RAMP AGAIN (and be saved by what was likely the Sky Tiger's magic?) and then NONE OF THE SOLDIERS STOP HER as she runs FASTER than all of them, and stands in front of them to say STOP DONT HURT IT.

The lack of explanation for why she does this is a bit more annoying than enticing, but hopefully that will be explained in the next episode. Can she read animal minds or their vibes or something??

It's also the first act that a 3 year old wouldn't be capable of, and finally shows that there is a 30 year old in there.

Until this last act of hers, the story didn't feel like it needed to be an isekai. It could legit just be a cute fluffy fantasy with an actual 3 year old.

This is actually my biggest gripe so far that might affect whether I keep watching or drop it part way. Personally, I love the Isekai trope and power fantasy of an adult reborn in a child's body with all their memories intact, whose able to use their smarts and life experiences to position themselves favorably in their new world, and work their way up from an "early" age. However, even though she is 27 mentally when she gets isekai'd, she acts nothing like an adult, nor even an adult trying to hide that she's a 30 year old mentally in a 3-year-old's body.

Maybe we will get more "adult thinking" shenanigans in future episodes, but if not, I hope it goes the way of 「By the Grace of the Gods」 which has a similar premise, except the gods who isekai protag-kun also slowly let his memories regress and turn him into an actual child over an extended period, so he can re-experience life without his terrible past lingering.

VVVVV Highly Recommend!! VVVVV

Notable Voice Actors!

Nefertina is Kakuma, Ai, who plays Eris from Mushoku Tensei and Lenalee from D. Gray Man! Not a huge name in the VA world, but a very cute voice.

Big Brother Ralph Osfe is Umeda, Shuuichirou who also plays Akira Tendo from Zom 100!! He's also not a big name, but feels like an up and coming kind of voice, and I immediately recognized his voice as something I'd watched recently (Zom 100)

Everyone else seems to be up and coming or small time VAs whom I don't recognize. Some good voices though!

Overall Score so far: 6/10

It's barely holding on, and with the number of other shows I'm watching, there is a chance I might drop it. It's a lovely potato chip though. Or maybe fluffy mashed potatoes? hahaha
