Reject Saiki being emotionless

Embrace Saiki having been so stressed out hiding his powers and being privy to the dark thoughts of humanity that he just wants to experience what joy he can take, so that in an environment where he grows up with a very supportive friend close to his age who knows his pain and joys, he can be more loving and expressive as he pleases

Talking about his relationship with Ritsu in my crossover au on the latter but it still stands. Like you know, what if Saiki and Akechi stayed friends? What if Kusuke wasn’t full of hubris and left Saiki by himself? Maybe all Saiki needed was to just grow up with someone who understands him?

Opinion on the hc that the (2012) turtles are bilingual (with there first language being Japanese) ?

(Kansjevdjdhud, I love that hc smm<3)

ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITE HEADCANON EVER

i love multilingual turtles!!!

i do think 2012 it's the one iteration that seems to be more in touch with yoshi's culture the most.

this might be for the fact that yoshi didn't have absolutely anyone at all when he arrived to new york, a complete unknown different place to him.

it's not literally specificed but one can deduce yoshi got the four turtles in the first place as an attempt to not feel as lonely after losing his family,his clan and being exiled.

so after the mutation i feel like yoshi would have taught the boys how to speak and read in japanese first instead of english since he would have been trying to find a level of normalcy and comfort in all he was going trough.

Another fact is that the brothers are used to splinter telling them stories as a way to pass the time when they were growing up. I like to think he tells them stories about different things like legends and just silly random stories from his past, all in yoshi's og language.

The show also shows it a lot! the brothers speak and understand japanese words pretty randomly! So i do think they mostly speak it while they are by themselves exclusively and at home instead of english (probably not much when april or casey are around as to not make them feel left out of the conversation tho)

also another fun silly headcanon i like is that mikey somehow speaks and understands spanish because of how he says random words of the language in the show too lol. as to how he learnt it himself idk tho. he probably found some telenovelas in vhs or smt lmao

Tobirama knows his way to Madara's heart is flattery

Alt text below

[first picture, Tobirama and Madara are holding hands.

Madara is freaking out internally, 'OMG WE'RE HOLDING HANDS'

Tobirama is looking at his brother at the back and thinking, 'what's up with Anija? is he jealous cuz I have Madara's attention? That might be a problem'

Hashirama is sulking and lil angry whispering at the background, "he stole my ototo... What kind of best friend does that?! He didn't even ask for a blessing!"]

[second picture. First shot is Madara showing off his Great Fireball jutsu to Tobirama.

Tobirama, clapping his hands, "wooooow", *unimpressed but surprised cuz Madara is strong for his age*

Second shot Tobirama hugs Madara's hand and says "you are so cool, Madara <3"

Madara shyly scratches his head "oh, you think so?"

Tobirama thinking, 'c'mon, Anija, fire jutsu. Think! Who uses Great Fireball? The sooner you both know about our clans the better. I don't need any unnecessary drama.'

Hashirama, "I can be cool too" ]

on my hands and knees begging for the “don’t do this here.” prompt between 12 leo & raph

x

“Raph.” Leo’s voice is pleading, cracking apart from the stress of it all. His brother won’t even look up at him. “Don’t— don’t do this here. Please.”

Their father is cold. His paw, old and stiff, has been in Raph’s hand for a good two hours alone now in the back of the van whilst the remaining members of his family had shuffled on inside. Donnie says that if they can’t make a break in the ground for the grave just yet, their best bet is to keep him in the barn for a little while until the soil softens and they can finally bury him.

Raph bristles. He doesn’t want to get out of the van. He doesn’t want to carry his fathers body to the barn. He doesn’t want to dig a grave with his brothers.

“C’mon. Let’s get you in the house, hm? Please?”

Raph’s eyes finally flicker up to meet dark blue. The whites of his eyes are no more, instead a pained bloodshot and the outside ringed with heavy purples. His big brother looks positively wrecked. Raph hates to think how he himself looks right now.

Leo is moving towards him, careful of the corpse that’s laid between them, still and unmoving, Raph half expects the familiar twitch of his whiskers or an eye to peel open and ask them what they were up to whilst he was sleeping.

But his father is not sleeping. He’s cold and stiff and dead.

“Come on, ototo,” he whispers, a hand curled around his shoulder now. “We’ll pick the most beautiful tree for him, in the morning, maybe.���

Something wet and hot and ugly is pricking behind his eyes. His chest feels like it’s about to cave in on itself, held up with just a few wonky support beams. He wishes it would so he had some physical grief to parallel what he was feeling in his head.

“Please,” Leo croaks. Raph looks up at him again. He doesn’t share any of the same physical tributes of their dad — none of them do or ever will. But he has that same, soft gaze deep behind his eyes and etched across his face is a worry that Raph thinks might be permanent now.

“Come inside with Don and Mikey,” Leo says, giving him a gentle nudge. “They need their big brother to be alright.”

Raph’s hand squeezes tight around Splinter’s. It doesn’t squeeze back like it might have done before. It causes a sickly feeling to land square in his gut.

He sniffs. “Don’t do this, Raph,” Leo says. He’s leaning close enough to bump his head against his. “Don’t shut yourself out here alone here. Come inside, please?”

In the morning, they’ll find soil soft enough and they’ll dig and they’ll dig and they’ll eventually lower the body in the ground and sprinkle it with fresh dirt and Raph will never see his father’s kind face ever again. No longer feel the sharp bristle of whiskers against his cheek of tufts of fur warm against his scales.

The soil will soften and the grass will grow over it, but Raph doesn’t think his caved in heart will ever feel the same again.

Mikey: Hey ani!

Giovanni, about to fucking cry:

*sniffles* Y-yes, ototo?

[pluto-attacks]

I just watched Ototo No Otto (My Brother’s Husband) and it has my whole heart in a way that maybe only Kinou Nani Tabeta (What did you eat yesterday) and His the movie have moved me before. One of the most charming and cathartic found families of all time. But I can’t seem to find any chatter about it on tumblr. Devistating ;_;

[the-muzansama]

▪︎Ototo douma has been so so nice to me~~~~~~~ do you have any ideas where we could get married???

Do it someplace you both will be happy at. What is your favourite kind of place, and what is his?

Do not do it at his Cult.

Heavyhearted Farewells (pt.1)

Gamatoto says goodbye to one of his longest expedition helpers.

Gamatoto and his interns came back to camp. They just finished a 6 hour long journey to the Catseyes Caverns. Packed with XP and Catseyes.. but most importantly, a new member in tow. A very damp one too.

They were sorting items out before pickup, some resting by the campfire or chattering. Some helped their newcomer clean up with towels and blankets. Gamatoto blew his whistle twice.

"Alrighty folks! We got a new recruit! Drumroll please!"

All the interns did a makeshift drumroll tapping their knees. Gamatoto revealed a shy cat with a very shiny Silver cap behind his back.

"Introducing Sophie! Lets give her a hand!!"

Everyone clapped, much to her embarassement. Her cap glimmered in the dimming sunlight.

Soon after, everyone packed up for the night. Sophie was accompanied to her tent by Elmo and Peggy. Gamatoto tucked everyone in with a campfire story and a hug. He decided to stay up later to plan future trips. Best to let the kids sleep for now.

----------------------------------------------

He was planning to excavate more Catseyes, considering the limited time they had to do so. Estimate was that it could hold for two more days before collapsing. Haniwa Cat and Ototo came to check up on him, Catamin A in hand.

"Whats up little brother? Did you get someone new?"

Ototo cracked open the bottle with his teeth and drank some down. Haniwa rotated his arms in excitement.

Ototo was the leader of his own developement team. Serious and calculating, but he also cared about the safety of his aquaintances. He might also have a Catamin problem..

"Yep! Sophie's a recent helper! Found her in some caverns, all soggy.."

Gamatoto said, a little depressed. He always had some love for all his interns. They were all so bright-eyed, eager to help for the Cat Empire campaign. Sure, they weren't fighting in the great war, but they wanted to help in any way. Seeing his charges getting hurt or trapped just breaks his heart.

"Poor girl. We just finished up our base maintenance! Haniwa is becoming a bit of a favourite among the engineers.."

He chuckled, drinking more. Haniwa was also a pretty recent addition. They would hold down the fort in case any rogue Doges attacked or lookout on expeditions. Interns loved them for what they did.

"Now how much helpers you have now? You had 9 last time I saw you."

Ototo pulled up a chair next to Gamatoto's planning table. Haniwa spinned behind them.

"11! We have a full house!"

Ototo took a peaceful swig at his bottle before quickly slamming it down.

"Too full. Remember the conditions? You can only have 10 at a time. How am I going to say this next part.."

Ototo took a deep breath. He put down his Catamin, three quarters finished, and put a paw on his brother. Gamatoto was sensitive, so he put this in the nicest way possible.

"You might have to send someone home."

-----------------------------

//Authors note: dun dun duuuun! First writing thing! I'm waiting for my AO3 invite so I can post on there. For now, Gamatoto's dilema!//

炭治郎「俺が部屋を出たら、すぐ鼓を打って移動しろ。今まで清がしてきたように、誰かが戸を開けようとしたり、物音がしたら、間髪入れずに鼓を打って逃げるんだ。俺は必ず迎えに来る。二人の匂いを辿って。戸を開ける時は名前を呼ぶから」

[thebirdofthechapel]

I felt a little bothered over a particular discourse of aroace Saiki; how he can’t be interested in Teruhashi and that aroaces can’t be in relationships… I’ve always known that existed in the Saiki K fandom and have avoided it until that one time. It’s fine to look for representation in fictional characters, but sexual identity is a journey of self-discovery. Boxing people into one experience is damaging to the concept of the diversity we queer people stand for. It isn’t “Saiki is straight or aroace” but “Saiki is aroace or maybe he’s gay in varying ways” - at the very least, that was what I was trying to say in the context of the discourse. I get we’re starved of representation, but it’s very weird that people become obsessed over the sexual identities of fictional characters... In anime, no less. The worst place to expect any representation.

But what bothers me the most was how, for all their claim of aroace erasure in the show, is how they themselves are doing it by believing there is only one type of aroace exp. Being aroace doesn’t necessarily mean you hate romance or/and sex. There are those that don’t want partners. There are those that do. There are those willing to do things for their partner if it makes them happy, and there are those that don’t. They’re all valid.  Aro/ace folks have different preferences as well. 

And they said no one comes close to Saiki as an aroace icon and I’m like....there’s Mera? She’s the true aroace icon!

This is why I never talked about pairings in RoH. For a coming-of-age story, I want the characters to grow and learn about themselves. I sort of have vague ideas for them but I’m mostly leaving it up to air and seeing where it goes. So far, there have been mentions of boys liking girls - Ritsu’s claim that he prefers energetic girls, swapped!Saiki having a puppy crush on Tsubomi back when they were kids, Momozou being obviously into Hitomi - but in case it isn’t clear, the setting has a very heteronormative culture. Having pink hair has already made things tricky for the Kageyama brothers. I avoid using “X is Y identity” to advertise this fic but LGBTQ+ themes are definitely a big part of what can be expected.

Well, I guess I can say there are definitely more gays than straights haha. Everyone being a lil gay is more believable, honestly.

🇬🇧 Just like on my cosplay account (for those who follow me on both sides despite the waves of absences from the cosplay side and the arid desert here... keuf keuf 👀), I post not after 1 or 2 days late but 3 DAYS late (and almost 2 a.m. on a Sunday lol)... my drawing is quite a snap of my adorable Ototo Aichi who was celebrating his birthday on June 6th! 💙

It's not perfect... I would have liked to take more time etc... but with my job... it's complicated... that's why I don't post anything anymore... by on the other hand, I'm still moving things forward without giving any news... but I'm moving REALLY slowly...

🇫🇷 Tout comme sur mon compte cosplay (pour ceux qui me suivent des deux côtés malgré les vagues d'absences du côté cosplay et le désert aride ici... keuf keuf 👀) , je poste pas après 1 ni 2 jours de retard mais 3 JOURS de retard (et à presque 2h du mat' un dimanche lol)... mon dessin fait assez à l'arrache de mon adorable Ototo Aichi qui fêtait son anniversaire le 6 Juin ! 🥳💙

Il est pas parfait... j'aurai voulu prendre plus de temps etc... mais avec mon boulot... c'est compliqué... c'est pour ça d'ailleurs que je poste plus rien... par contre, j'avance quand même des choses sans donner de news... mais j'avance VRAIMENT lentement... je vous tiendrai au jus dès que je pourrai 😜

(RENDEZ MOI MON TEMPS ET MON ENERGIIIIEEE!!! 😭)

En attendant, je souhaite de nouveau un Joyeux anniversaire à mon petit frère adoré et vous laisse... admirer cette illustration baclée 😅

Je vous souhaite à tous une bonne nuit ✨

How to Choose the Best Tea Steer

The best tea steeper (also referred to as tea strainers or infusers) are essential brewing accessories for those who enjoy loose-leaf tea. With one, you can create an aromatic cup that's smooth and satisfying while preventing unwanted leaves or sediment from your beverage.

Finally, the ideal tea steeper should allow maximum interaction between water and tea, with extra-fine mesh to prevent leaves or sediment from escaping into your brew. Additionally, it must come with a cover to protect cups, mugs, pots or thermoses during brewing so the tea stays hot and aromatic.

1. Finum Brewing Basket Infuser

The Finum Brewing Basket is an ideal tea steeper that features a durable stainless steel micro-mesh basket and heat-tolerant BPA-free plastic frame in two sizes to fit all mugs and tea pots. Available in various colors, its lid reverses into a handy drip tray for your cup or mug when it cools after steeping.

It's also incredibly affordable, effortless to use and clean, and highly recommended by tea experts - making it a must-have for every tea enthusiast!

Basket infusers offer more space for leaves to expand and unfurl during steeping than tea balls, which may be too large for many types of loose leaf teas. This helps extract full flavors from your favorite teas.

For most people, the Finum Brewing Basket is ideal as it allows a large amount of tea to steep at once and doesn't get too hot like standard tea balls can. Furthermore, its heat-tolerant BPA-free plastic frame and dishwasher safe design make it an ideal choice.

2. AdHoc Tea Drop Infuser

Tea steepers are a cost-effective and stylish accessory that can make your tea-brewing process simpler. Not only does it add an interesting visual element to the process, but it's one of the best ways to keep leaves and sediments out of your beverage.

When selecting an infuser, the most effective ones are large enough to allow your leaves space to interact with water and prevent small particles from escaping into your drink. Basket-shaped infusers, for instance, allow tea leaves to spread evenly and diffuse their flavor throughout a mug or pot of hot water.

The AdHoc Tea Drop Infuser is the ideal option for those searching for an easy-to-use infuser that fits any mug or kettle. This model features a glass infuser with a convenient lid that doubles as a drip tray, keeping its handle cool to touch even when filled with boiling hot water. Plus, its stand collects any leftover leaves after you're finished brewing.

3. OTOTO Baby Nessie Loose Leaf Tea Infuser

The OTOTO Baby Nessie Loose Leaf Tea Infuser is an exquisite way to enjoy your favorite loose-leaf tea. Crafted by the award-winning OTOTO Studio, this charming tea steeper makes an ideal present for all tea connoisseurs. This adorable infuser is made of food-grade silicone and designed to release all the delicious flavors from your tea leaves. Simply place your preferred leaves inside the infuser and dip into hot water.

This tea infuser stands out with its extra-fine mesh screen that prevents small bits of broken tea leaves from entering your drink. Plus, the lid doubles as a drip tray for convenient cleaning. This teapot's long neck and stir mechanism make it convenient to use, while its seal ensures little to no loose tea leaves get into your cup. Plus, it's dishwasher-safe for added convenience!

4. House Again Infuser

If you want to elevate your tea making game, the House Again Infuser is one of the top options available. This infuser is ideal for brewing loose leaf tea and comes in various designs. The mesh in the infuser is fine, providing you with a clear brew with no unwanted bits floating into your cup. This is an important advantage as it means you can extract maximum flavor from your tea leaves.

There are also many features that make this an attractive choice, such as its stainless steel construction and BPA-free silicone handles. These guarantees make it safe to use and easy to clean after each session. The infuser also features a small saucer to rest on, so any excess water or tea will drain away, leaving no mess behind. This makes it ideal for anyone who drinks large amounts of tea.
