For thinkmeat jiggling: Does that Don Kanonji guy have much of a role in AEIWAM? (Also, I spent a joyful few hours today putting together a Ritual/Fusion-themed Deck from only my vast collection of loose YGO cards, because TPOFATGIF's mere existence put me back in touch with a long-dormant fandom and I'm SO HAPPY right now -- thanks much!)

HE DOES ACTUALLY!

I know that the point of all the terrible/absent parents in children's/young adult fiction is that they're being set aside from the narrative so the juvenile protagonists can shine and instill confidence in the reader to overcome challenges in life.

But I'm 33 now and this is my fic and I'm writing out my middle-aged Queer/ND fantasy of ADULTS WHO SHOW THE FUCK UP FOR THE KIDS WHEN NEEDED, so Mr. Don Kanonji is an important member of Team Ichigo. Namely, the Adult Supervision who knows how to file paperwork, occasionally say "Kids, that's illegal" and putting himself between them and Problems. Kon also gets a new narrative life, and Don takes over the Supervision of Karkura Town for him when Ichigo is away, along with Uryuu's Mom, who also got an excavator to her story and as one friend put it, "I can't believe you Un-fridged her by killing her like that??".

He was also an auditor for an accounting firm before he decided to quit, spend a few years in Europe as a fashion model*, and then stumbled into his televised ghost-hunting gig on accident, but that first job and his spiritual awareness mean Don Kanonji is the BANE of Kisuke Urahara's existence :)

He continues to be the Bane of Urahara's existence after the fic, because since he's already acquired this much spiritual ability in the living world (He's got a beam attack. Ichigo doesn't have a beam attack.) , he's stupid powerful once he passes on and enters Soul Society, and Now-Captain Rukia is still a fan, so he gets to continue to torment Urahara as a seated officer, if not an actual captain. :)

*that's canon actually.

Been thinking about Goro Akechi having a self care routine

Yeah yeah pretty boy having makeup sesh or whatever

but what about baths

Although it started out as a part of his Detective Prince persona that he donned for the world, he found himself enjoying the act of taking baths. Sitting in the water, with a small table besides on which he would have one of his newest mystery novels and a notebook for anything he might have on his mind. Finding it therapeutic to have a 7-step skincare routine. It's a time for him to collect his thoughts, thinking about what to do next. A radio is on (or maybe a record player?) with some jazz tunes. It's the one time that he has complete control over himself and takes the time to enjoy it, though at first he tried to self-criticize himself for it.

He becomes extremely protective over this secret, not wanting others to know that he actually does have a side like that. (He want's to keep people away, so why do they need to know this?)

When he starts opening up to the Phantom Thieves though, Ann can tell. At first she jokingly pesters him about it, since "wow when you were on TV you always looked so good, wanna trade secrets?" until she realizes that oh wait, there's something more here than just looking good for the cameras, huh? She doesn't pry though, when one day he snaps at her for coming too close to the truth.

He eventually comes around, when the world isn't threatening to end or get taken over, when these kids have time to be actual kids. Ann's boisterous personality is a bit to get used to, but soon enough they chat about their routines. Ann, Shiho, and Goro hanging out cuz they were all free. Ann giving him tips but leaving out the part in which the tips are all centered around Akiren cuz the guys wear their hearts on their fucking sleeves, and she knows a crush when she sees one.

The first time Akiren moves in with Goro, hearing him say "I'm going to take a bath" but not expecting for him to emerge from the bathroom, two hours later, looking like a pristine Greek sculpture. Akiren jokes about it, flustering Goro, who then makes a snide comment about the mop of black hair that "definitely needs to be checked for rats."

Anyway jump on the anngoro-besties train I love thinking abt them interacting

My oc Riley and Geeta.

Okay but fr I need to tame my adhd so I can actually keep an oc longer then a month before hyperfixating on some random tangent in a canon character and make it my whole personality.

[voidmenace]

i gotta say, i really love how involved with the fandom martyn is, from hanging out on here with us to wanting to understand our theories to reblogging fanart to even making canon some of our ideas. idk, i think it’s neat to have a content creator thats just as passionate about us as we are about him, and comes together with us to have fun with it

[traceamountsoftimetravel]

Is it enough to just say you like something and not have to have it be some kind of academic exercise?

[sniperdadmaccready]

No but for real. Why did I look at this fucking guy and go "Oh I am going to make you transgender and give you so much trauma and also marry you in all of my playthroughs".

I think I'm sensing a trend where I latch onto unimportant / insignificant side characters and project huge complex backstories onto them. With Skyrim, I did it for Rune and Etienne Rarnis (Thieves Guild) and Onmund (College of Winterhold). In New Vegas, obviously I've latched onto Mick and Ralph. When I was a teenager I was really obsessed with Sprat from The Chronicles of Vladmir Tod. I know there is probably something to be gleaned from this psychologically speaking BUT instead I will just decide to have my beloved mildly irrelevant or obscure blorbos and not shut up about them on tumblr dot com <3

Honestly, I think Katara having her scars (let's say for arguments sake that she can't heal them either with normal waterbending or with the spirit water. I personally don't subscribe to the idea that the spirit water would have worked on Zuko's scar but anyway) would have enhanced the parallels and connection between her and Zuko. Besides, I don't think she would have bothered to use the spirit water on her own hands. She wouldn't have thought it important enough imo.

It's pretty obvious that she and Zuko, as Aang's main teachers of those respective elements, are meant to compliment and parallel one another. Both were learners themselves when they started teaching Aang (Zuko had to relearn firebending from a different source. After that he was virtually a master). Aang's proxy teacher (Pakku) for water came after Katara started teaching him waterbending. Aang's proxy teacher (Jeong Jeong) started teaching Aang firebending before Zuko started teaching him.

Zuko being burned and thus scarred by the Avatar's main adversary, while Katara would have been burned and thus scarred by the Avatar. Heck, even the incidents themselves parallel one another in ways. Ozai purposefully burned his son's face and had no feelings of love or affection for him at all. Aang burned Katara on accident and definitely cared for Katara deeply.

In truth I don't think that her having scars would change the dynamics between her and either Zuko or Aang. She would do her best not to acknowledge them around Aang (coddling him as she always does) while with Zuko she could probably get him to open up about how he got his. Seriously is anyone else mad that Team Avatar never learns about how Zuko got his scar? I doubt he mentioned it to Katara or anyone else. :/

Katara's own marred hands being the first to touch Zuko's scar? Poetry (shipping aside).

Anyway, I just think it's a neat concept narratively. -insert Marge Simpson meme here-

Hi stranger!

I think you're attractive and seeing you do hot pinup posts brightens my day.

I also don't want to "be weird about it".

I'm not a cosplay person... But I do like checking out your art and enjoying... I guess a "parasocial relationship" or whatever.

I don't reproduce your work. I don't use your work to masturbate. I just think you're neat... Like the Marge Simpson holding a potato meme.

Anyway, thanks so much for being around and also to a lesser extent bring around openly and proud. IDK what kinda weirdo haters you get in your asks... But I really only care about them insofar as I care about your health and wellbeing.

Shit... I'm supposed to ask something... Uhh...

I guess is there a reasonable place and amount for me to donate funds? Or do you have some other ask like that I go donate to a charity of your choosing?

Haha well I think that's fine, I follow a lot of people for the "they're just neat!" Or just liking to watch what they're up to. I don't think you get into weird parasocial stuff until you start thinking folks are actually your friend or owe you particular "content" rather than like "oh cool bobs back lemme see what he's turning on the lathe today!"

I do have a ko-fi if anyone wants to throw money, I'm not hurting, exactly, but non profit work doesnt pay the $$ and my bf's been in and out of work so I won't say no--anything people throw there gets spent on supplies for creative endeavors
