#november 5th guys you know what that means

[golby-moon]

this is all @lazarus-rose's fault (as most of my art is these days). I present a Dean and Cas thing inspired by an Orpheus and Eurydice and yeah idk this happened. enjoy Dean saving Cas from the Empty (emphasis on saving)

inspired by this random painting of Orpheus and Eurydice that has an unreasonably large file size. also inspired by this random thing I drew forever ago of Cas rescuing Dean from Hell

(also dw this is me so I'm sure the destiel version ends a little better because I am Weak ,_,)

(11/05/24)

[tiktaalic]

Did lots of people think Cas was going to die in Despair? Like i know he made the deal w the empty but was there a specific reason people thought that episode would be the one or was it more of just knowing his days were numbered bc of the empty deal? <- guy who hasn’t seen season 15 and is so so interested in the vibes of the spn fandom right before nov 5th

Yes. I would like to preface this with the fact that I was in this space as a hater. There were like five supernatural blogs I would search for by url and backread every day. And they would say. Guys destiel is for real going to happen in despair. And i would think to myself. There’s not going to be destiel in supernatural you stupid slut. I was up to date on the meta I just thought people were letting supernatural Charlie Brown football them. Because many such cases in supernatural. Where it seems to be leading to destiel. And then it doesn’t.

Anyway. The empty deal was made in 14 and then kind of got dropped forever. The only time I can remember it coming up is right afterwards where cas explained to jack how he got him back and then is like don’t worry the trigger is happiness im not dying any time soon. Second time it comes up cas is like Dean you are in a shockingly good mood what’s up with that. And deans like well we got jack back no strings attached that’s a pretty big win. And then cas looks sadly off into the distance.

Anyway x 2. I feel like I remember them releasing the promos like stupid far in advance for despair. Edit to say yeah that’s true they were out in August of 2020 for an episode that aired in November. Castiel telling Dean he loved him was treated as a Known Fact As SOON as despair ads aired. people said. Oh. This is it. Bc the pieces to the ad were billie threatening them. dean crying while facing cas. Billie opening a door (which led to Dean and cas). Then dean on the floor with the handprint. So everyone was like oh clearly this means cas tells Dean he loves him which triggers the deal and does this to save Dean and he dies in front of dean causing dean to cry on the floor. This is doubly proved by the handprint like duh this is the only way a bloody handprint on his shoulder would be narratively significant again. And again this was all treated as fact. This was obviously going to be the course of events based on the trailer. And me. Hater. Went ok well cas isn’t going to confess his love because this is supernatural but the rest adds up I do think he’s going to die in front of dean in this scene. Really anecdotal but I remember seeing people upset on twitter MONTHS before this about misha not being in the finale which was surely speculation but not sure bsded on what. I started paying attention to supernatural again in like. July of 2020 so I can only speak to that. I know Covid made the airing schedule really weird. And 1518 was the last thing they filmed before Covid. For reference these shots are the ones people CORRECTLY concluded destiel from.

Death Note Fic Hunt

Trying to track down an old fanfic I remember reading years ago. Might have been posted on fanfic.net and never made it to Ao3?

The basic premise is that Light gets a second chance at life. Ryuk gets bored again and makes a deal with the shinigami king for Light to be pulled out of Mu and reincarnated, on the condition that he must save as many lives as Kira took in the original timeline. Possibly the incentive is that if he succeeds he will have lived a life free of the Death Note and thereby avoid going to Mu after he dies again, and the punishment if he fails is that he becomes a shinigami or something??

So Light is reborn back in time as a baby but with his adult intelligence and memories of the previous timeline. (This fucks up his relationship with his mother who is extremely unnerved by her Weird Wrong Baby.) He relives his early childhood but as soon as possible he establishes himself as a detective and starts solving cases under the pseudonym Kira. This catches the attention of L, who becomes obsessed with trying to discover the true identity of the new challenger to his title of World's Greatest Detective. Light fucks with him by sending gifts to Wammy's House.

The fic was incomplete last time I read it, and I think it ended right around when Light and L were about to meet in person for the first time.

Scenes I remember:

Sachiko listening in horror from the hallway while baby!Light teaches himself how to talk. His real first word is 'Kira', but a few days later he pretends his first word is 'Mama' and she's like 'Why is my fucked up baby pretending to be normal?'

Light as a toddler or very small child approaching one of the detectives from the Kira Task Force (can't remember which one - possibly the guy who dies really early) and saying something like 'I'm a super genius who knows everything about you and possibly I have some kind of supernatural powers. Come work for me and tell no one.' And the guy is like 'What the fuck? Okay I guess.' and then he becomes Light's Watari figure, helping him set up his secret double-life as an international super detective.

At one point Light saves people from a burning building, because he remembered that people died there and every life he can save counts. This prompts him to realise that eventually he will have to save Misa from dying also, which he is annoyed by because he knows it will cause him problems in the future.

Ryuk is hanging around to keep track of how many lives Light saves and at one point he asks if Light is still planning to join the police. Light is like, 'No I'm doing enough detective stuff in my secret double life, for my day job I'm probably going to go into medicine, maybe become a cardiac surgeon' and Ryuk finds that hilarious.

L keeps getting gifts from Kira and it freaks him out because they're weirdly personal and no one is supposed to know who he is or where Wammy's House is. One year he is hanging around Wammy's in late October, half expecting Kira will send him a birthday present. Nothing comes on October 31st and after a few days L is still sulking about it, so Watari is like 'Okay, it's time to move on now' but then on November 5th an arrangement of flowers for a funeral arrives and L is like 'What is this supposed to mean???'

Please let me know if you remember this fic or know how to find it!!

Politicians have always bent the truth, spun their views, even exaggerated stories. There has never, & I mean NEVER been the amount of falsehoods & flat out lies like there are today. When Vance and Trump stipulate in their agreements to get interviews that they don’t want fact checking, that tells you they want to broadcast lies and deception internationally. It’s absurd! Both sides of the aisle have their moments, don’t get me wrong, but. In a recent book by the owner of Politifact, established in 2007, he states a huge rise in falsities over the years. From 2022 to mid 2024 he found that Democrats lied, or weren’t telling the whole truth 17% of the time. On the Republican side it is a whopping 63%! That means over HALF of what you hear from the GOP is not true. Trump plays a significant roll in this seeing that he lies as he breathes, but still. It’s time for the American people to show the GOP that this is not acceptable. That we demand a higher level of honesty & integrity. To show these politicians who seem to forget who they work for. They don’t work for corporations and the most wealthy individuals. THEY WORK FOR US! The American people. When someone lies to you over & over again , it shows the lack of respect they have for you. If you had an employee who disrespected over half the time would you keep them in your employ? Get out there & Vote, make your voice heard! Get your friend’s, family, neighbors, colleagues, that weird guy who always sits at the end of the bar by himself (me 😆) people you meet, people you hardly know, to get out there and make a difference for good! So please, this November 5th (or earlier, I prefer early or mail in voting, less of a crowd. Plus, if you forget anything or there’s any discrepancies, you can hopefully get them wrapped & fixedUp before Election Day)go out and Vote! Vote blue down ballot. Vote like women’s rights depend on it. Vote like the environments health and protection depends on it. Vote like the continuation of democracy as we know it depends on it. Vote like equal rights for all, LGBTQ rights, not living in fear of a mass shooting, voting rights, social security, Medicare, Medicaid & the ACA, public education, freedom of religion, labor rights & collective bargaining, antitrust & predatory lending, fair housing, and your personal freedom depends on it. Because it does.

my very VERY impromptu Trump-Kamala thoughts

I wanted to have a proper look at both of their charts and analyze them with respect to the elections and so I thought I'll share with you guys some notes that I'm making in my head.

So if you're not familliar with Trump's chart, he was (kinda famously among astrologers) born on a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius - his a Gemini Sun is conjunct Uranus and north node (which helps his leadership qualities) and Sagi Moon conjunct the north node (which brings misfortune to women around him… in one way or another). He also has Mars on his Leo ascendant, which just makes his Gemini self be even more yappy and arrogant know-it-all.

Currently he's in his Saturn profection year and I've talked about it in my previous post but his natal Saturn is in the 12th house of secrets, loss and succlusion. We still don't know what his felony conviction in September will be but what I will say is that Saturn, not only in the 12th but also on exile in Cancer is like double banishment - it's not only themes of being isolated because of the 12th but planets that are in the sign opposite to its domicile often act like rejection of some sorts - and it's either something that rejects you or that you reject yourself, depending on the topic involved.

On the election day, Jupiter will be right on top of his north node and Mars will barely enter his 1st house, giving him more energy and power (mind you that Mars will later retrograde back to his 12th!). Saturn will move away from t-squaring his luminaries but it will still quietly do its malefic job from his 8th house. What's also worth noting is that Uranus will still hover over his MC and square his Mars. So that disruptive energy will linger and Jupiter's influence over his planets might just blow it out of proportion even more.

Interestingly on November 5th we'll have two major transits: Venus opposite Jupiter and Mars opposite Pluto. This is a very strong push and pull and kind of like a battle of the feminine and masculine.

Kamala on the other hand, was also born during a lunation - she has Libra Sun directly opposite Aries Moon (feisty lady she is indeed!). So she's also a full Moon baby. Not an eclipse one but her nodes are just as prominent with the north node right on her Gemini ascendant - she's here to evolve and to do things for the people. And make silly remarks about coconuts Gemini-style.

There we have it guys, the battle of Geminis!

She's currently in her 12th house profection year, where her natal Jupiter is placed. Funnily, her Jupiter is where Uranus currently transits and where Trump has his MC - the Mars-Uranus conjunction surely affected her in a good way. Because she's a Libra, at the time of the elections she'll already be in her 1st house profection with Jupiter transiting her 1st, elevating her as a person. So both of them have support from the benefic.

The beginning of November will also be a notable Saturn transit for her with it opposing her Uranus, Pluto and Venus. As well as Pluto and Mars making a grand square to her luminaries (and to her ascendant ruler, Mercury!) This is a make or break kind of transit but will it give her enough clout and power to push through with the votes or will it bring her defeat?

What's worth noting with her is that soon she'll start having eclipses in the 4th-10th houses, which can bring changes in her living situation and career - but again, it's hard to really guess if that change means stepping down and leaving the White House or upgrading her status.

One thing that is for sure is that starting next year, the US will go into its Uranus return, which historically brought a lot of upheavals and wars every time so no matter who wins, shit will most probably go down.

My guess is that'll happen under potential Trump presidency - somehow he may be that trigger whether willingly or not or some other shocking stuff happens in the meantime and THAT will be the root of the american shitstorm???

Another interesting point is that on the inauguration day Sun will conjoin with Pluto - so we have the theme of forceful power and leadership or some other unpleasant things yet again. Venus will also just move past Saturn, which makes me think of the defeat of the feminine - OR maybe because Venus is exalted in Pisces this is the feminine stepping into authority and a moment of a metaphorical cease-fire and ease.

The Day The Next Big Queerbait Will Be Revived, Semi Confirmed, And Then Sent to Super Hell

i finally did it guys. it took me years, nay decades of research and all nighters but i finally did it. i ran the experiments. crunched the numbers. did the complex analyses on my findings and i’m finally here to share them.

on november 5th in the year of our castiel 2020, supernatural 5x18 despair aired on the cw for the first time. and around 2 years later, on january 26th of 2023, teen wolf: the movie released on paramount+ for the first time.

now i’m no scientist but this is looking like a pattern.

there were 812 days between 5x18 releasing and teen wolf the movie releasing. and if my math is correct, which it probably isn’t, that means the next big revived, semi confirmed, then killed queerbait is to be released on april 18th of 2025.

now i know what you’re thinking. az, what ship could this next big revived semi confirmed then killed queerbait possibly be?

well my dear innocent tumblr child, let me take you back to september 20th 2008 when this little known show called merlin aired for the first time.

THATS RIGHT BITCHES MARK YOUR FUCKING CALENDARS APRIL 18 2025 ARTHUR WILL COME BACK, CONFIRM MERTHUR, THEN (platonically) DIE IN MERLINS ARMS ONCE AGAIN BELIEVING EVERYTHING TO BE FULLY

✨UNREQUITED✨

Now some may be wondering why I’ve been so gung ho on Early Voting/Mail In Voting? The reason is because as we’ve seen in the last couple of weeks Trump and his cult are going to no doubt try and steal the election as evidenced by them trying by to make Nebraska a “winner take all state”, having Georgia do hand ballots, keeping Kamala’s name off the ballots in Montana (while miraculously leaving on RFK Jr’s 🙄) and trying to pass that “Save Act nonsense” along with Trump shit talking our troops that vote overseas.

All of what I mentioned is ACTUAL election interference. Thankfully all of them except the Georgia hand ballot thing have been shoved to the side although even that is being contested next week so hopefully that gets scrapped too. The reason this is actual election interference is because counting hand ballots by hand is no doubt mentally exhausting but you’re bound to make an error (and you can believe MAGA will make an “error” 😒) and you’d know this if you’ve ever done inventory at work, you’d know this. The Save Act screws married women since youzmd have to have the same name you were born with and making Nebraska a “winner take all” state would have NO DOUBT been an unfair advantage for Trump and as for leaving off Kamala’s name in Montana, there is NO excuse for that. Funny how the party of “law and order” is involved with all this untrustworthy nonsense. 🥴

But yeah sorry to segue in all that, I just wanted to let you know the shit MAGA is putting on is and how we can best combat them and I feel mail in ballots and early voting is a GREAT counter to that! Also I feel it worth noting that Trump said if he gets in office, he’s putting Elon Musk in charge of the government and both say they will do away with both mail in ballots and early voting. Gee I wonder why 😒

But yeah anyways, here are the Early Voting Dates:

And here’s your link to request a mail in ballot! Though please keep in mind when you get your mail in ballot, like I say, make sure to deposit it AT the USPS office! That way you can avoid MAGA mail fuckery! Here’s the link to sign up!

And well if you just wanna be old fashioned like me, here are the dates which list the deadlines and when it’s the last day to sign up to vote on November 5th as well as the link to register to vote itself.

Guys we’ve done so well and because of our hard work; Kamala has a lead in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Wisconsin. (Which is why MAGA is even more unhinged with their fuckery eye roll) but we can NOT stop here. We can NOT afford to take our feet off the breaks UNTIL Kamala wins and is in the White House. And even then this is NOT the end of Project 2025/Agenda 47/180 Transition Plan (new name same shit), it will only be delayed.

In short, PLEASE PLEASE VOTE in ANY way you can. Either Mail In (with the tip I shared), Early or ACTUAL IN DAY VOTING of November 5th!

If we fail and we get Trump….we can DEFINITELY say goodbye to voting since don’t forget two months ago he said and I quote “you won’t ever have to worry about voting again. It’ll all be fixed.” We all know what that means when he says “fixed”.

And we also enjoyed several events like Pride Month this year. With all his talk about “Christianity and going after Anti-Christians”, if he gets in, this could legitimately have been our LAST pride month.

And like I’ve always said if he gets in, he’s not leaving until he croaks and if that happens we get someone like JD Vance or Elon Musk as president.

I’m sure I don’t have to explain how HORRIFIC that would be. And keep in mind, our economy STILL hasn’t fully recovered from how bad Trump fucked us over even FOUR YEARS LATER.

So in short let’s NOT blow this. Thank You 🙏

TEH, part 3

I wasn’t sure how much there was left after the bonfire scene but apparently there’s about a half hour left, meaning these parts are in neat thirds.

I write as if anyone else knows what I’m talking about when these drop randomly once a year or so.

Sherlock remained more in focus from John’s perspective.

Still so cute how Sherlock immediately must hustle his parents out when his crush heterosexual former roommate shows up.

Mum putting her foot in the doorway in case there was any doubt who’s the “sherlock” of these two.

“Your parents? Your parents? Those were your parents?”

John who desperately wants to understand Sherlock. How much he would have wanted to interrogate them, I’m sure. But then he has to giggle at the absurdity of the Holmes brothers having such (seemingly) ordinary parents.

And then the hurt. “Did they know too?”

“So that’s why they weren’t at the funeral!” Because if they had been, John would have recognized them now of course. But also he probably thought they had died or something, making their existence as ordinary people even more shocking.

“Wasn’t working for me.” If Molly and John not mirrors then why this exact line. Why not “Well, everybody hated it” or “Didn’t fit me” or “Kept tickling my lips”.

Just saying. Plenty of options.

“Last night” “Too nebulous” goes on with the case.

There’s all the likelihood that, like with Sherlock’s survival, the writers just didn’t care who put John in the bonfire. They just wanted John in the bonfire. So that Sherlock could heroically rescue him.

And yes I was thinking about how this episode takes place “today” as in 5th November as in Guy Fawke’s Day. (Though the cool kids call it John Johnson’s day.)

Am I just that Johnlocked that I find it adorable that Sherlock angled the laptop so that John would see more/be more included?

Sumatra road is 28 minutes by car from Westminister. Definitely not below it. Gotta take some creative liberties for those sweet canon references.

Why hasn’t Moran just left town entirely? Oh well.

A bit of illegal breaking and entering as people walk by without giving them a second glance. That’s big cities for you.

I forgot how far they have to go through this.

Love that John got to comment on the demolition charges.

Ah, I get it! Moran still has to be in like radio range or something.

“Why do you think I know what to do?” Really, Sherlock? Really?

“And a soldier, as you keep reminding us all!” Sherlock why are you being so petty, you love him being a former soldier.

051113 is the bomb code.

I just love the line “Use your mind palace” because it makes me think of how intelligence is weirdly used as a superpower in media.

Also that you can vaguely hear Sherlock saying “off” as he’s panicking with his hands around the bomb.

John is so fucking smart but also maybe he also just has faith in Sherlock being clever enough. But anyway just cutting through the bullshit, this is a trick.

Maybe Sherlock is underhanded here. But John finds this sort of stuff difficult.

So here we get John Watson’s version of Dean Winchester’s purgatory prayer. “Of course I forgive you”

This explanation is definitely unreliable narrator. Sherlock wasn’t quite as in control as he likes to portray himself so of course he makes it out otherwise. But he’s convinced that Moriarty died but again: A. Singular. Body.

This explanation means that it was John that most importantly had to buy it. Possibly because close friend, with medical certification who Sherlock nonetheless felt he couldn’t trust the acting skills of.

I think this scene happened (more or less) and sometime after the proper end to the episode. But like even Anderson(Philip) noticed that the explanation is lacking.

Sherlock laughing like the utter little shit he is.

“There’s always an off switch.” Say that to the undefusable bomb. Although technically it did have an off switch, it was just too complicated to be tried without knowing the proper sequence.

Getting John to laugh even when he’s angry with him.

They really are the right kind of wrong for each other.

Mycroft being les miserable. XD

“Weddings. Not really my thing.”

You’re going to be planning and arranging the whole thing you miserable bastard!

A difference between Molly and John. She went for the suspiciously similar substitute, he went for (what he believed to be) the exact antithesis.

Oh my little lestrolly heart at Lestrade asking if Molly and Tom are serious. Although he is likely doing it because he is the one who would comment on the elephant.

“Real life is rarely so neat.” The goddamn bonfire.

They’re literally saying that the one true explanation for Sherlock surviving is that John asked him to.

“Time to be Sherlock Holmes.” *wears the damn hat*

Sherlock’s mind palace is certainly nicer than Magnussen’s.

[hollyhomburg]

It sucks when I decide not to confide in you guys because honestly today was HELL and I cannot go into it without going several pages into my current lore, but BASICALLY

My grandparents are getting kicked out from the house they’ve lived in for 60+ years, primarily because an uncle who is not one of their children is worried about the housing market taking a downturn and not getting his money. The house is a 3.4 million dollar house, it’s next door to my little cabin. This uncle is very well off and in his retirement, when he purchased the house he signed a legal document (notarized by lawyer) that my grandparents could live there for the rest of their lives.

However last month, he sent an email stating that he was kicking my grand parents out on the 5th of November. My mother and a lot of my aunts and uncles are very upset about this, mostly because of my grandmothers dementia- moving her into an unknown location would decrease her memory substantially. A lot of other people where angry on account of them having no place to stay (it’s been decided they’re going to stay with my uncle but at the time we didn’t know where), and because he gave two 91 year old people 30 days! To move 80+ years of their life! a few of my cousins started to chime in, and then my mother sent an email saying that this was not a conversation that anyone should be having but their seven kids and the conversation was moved to a private chat. My grandparents are supposed to move into our house eventually, but our basement apartment is just beginning renovation for them- we need a good year until it’s ready because we’re poor and can only afford to do it slowly and mostly on our own.

And then comes my sister, who has been externally close with this aunt and uncle. She has been mostly non-communicative about this until today, where she called up my mom to see if she could come visit this weekend- because my whole family- all like 70 of us - are banning together to help my grandparents pack up their lives. My mom started to vent to her- and my sister chewed her out for the e-mail saying It was uncalled for and basically took my aunt and uncles side in the whole situation. As well as Criticized her for being financially irresponsible and not having the basement done, blaming her for my grandparents predicament. My mom was /sobbing/ by the end of it. It took my brother and I like- 20 minutes to calm her down.

She then proceeded to call me 5 times before I picked up, and we had a hard conversation about it all, and when she point blank asked me if i thought she should come home this weekend and I told her that no, I didn’t, because our mom needs support not judgment and she’s going to feel her feelings no matter the facts and what we personally think is right, and if she can’t hold her tongue and be supportive to just my mom- then her being here would cause a lot more stress. And that No matter the situation with the rest of the family and what I personally think should happen- my top priority is my mom and getting her through these super tough weeks tbh, not even my grandparents well being, not my aunt and uncle, not even her at this moment.

She thanked me for being honest with her and we ended the call after she apologized for missing my birthday. Which I was honestly really hurt about but brushed it off because I am just too burnt out to care.

Then after we hung up she texted me this, and we had this conversation

And now I’m wondering if I went too far, if I was too mean, if it was bad of me to deny my sister the last chance to see my grandparents in their home. I don’t know, things have been so hard, I hate this, I hate feeling angry and resentful towards people I care about. I just feel like the saying “honesty without tact is cruelty” really applies to it because like, you can about what you’re feeling without it hurting the people you love. I also told my mom I didn’t like the email she sent out to the family- but I was able to do it in a way that didn’t make her sob. Ugh I just don’t know. Maybe I’m wrong and terrible and just ugghhhh I need to sleep

I took part in the controversial art challenge, which ended on October 31st, and although I haven't posted the other pictures I drew on here, since it's almost November 5th, I just wanted to post this one drawing and say, please, all of you who can, go vote. I'm European, so it's technically none of my business, but as I was drawing this picture of a landmark, what I thought about was, what the Statue of Liberty stands for, like freedom and democracy. That orange guy wants to destroy those ideals. Don't let him.

I've never missed a single chance to vote ever since I first got the chance. Especially in presidential elections, since we have a two-round election here, the two candidates reaching round 2 are rarely my favourites. More than once I've voted for the lesser evil. Here in Finland, we often say, not voting means you can't complain about the secisions politicians make. So, I vote, if for no other reason, then to be able to say, I didn't vote those jerks into power (as I do a lot these days).

So, you know, if you can, vote.

[ilikelookingatthings]

my soster and I were pollworkers in Georgia today on November 5th. Only 260 some people showed up...which I hope means so many people voted by mail and early...thar we didn't have many people to show.. .but I am HONESTLY VERY SCARED. We had two precincts next to eachother in this church and there still wasn't that much people.

One college student gave me a new fear and horror finding out that if you put your college/dorm as where you live and come home to your parents it isn't going to work out that you can vote where your living? One guy signed up to vote today and found out despite being registered that apparently you had to be registered by a certain date to count? People kept accidentally going to the wrong precincts and while luckily most just had to go next door it does worry me.

I want to think positively...we had first time voters show up!

But I also keep thinking about the lady with a bedazzled Trump hat I saw at a longhorn last week.

Ate some chilli and sandwiches cuz we have the cool one with managers who bring food so I was more or less in a good mood and to keep that up I've been trying not to think... but it breaches containment where I feel nauseous cuz my country really is riding on this election.

One person said see me at the next election....then he said hopefully if there is one with the most nervious laugh cuz it's a real fact if Trump wins there coukd be a risk there won't be any more elections! And HE knows it but also if he doesn't laugh or try to joke the terror of the situation wells up!

I had nice sushi after with my sis cuz we deserved it as a treat!

And then we come home and our second sisters won't tell us she's been looking at the news but we can INSTANTLY tell it's not looking good.. I mean voting might still take a day to add up proper in georgia....abd I WANT to have hope...but nkw all I can think is maybe krger stares have voting on kafer days and will see whats happening and come out in bigger droves to make up for it?

I WANT to relax in early voting as a saviour....but I'm not sure ifs enough this time!!!

On more positive votes I embroidered some stuff and my sister finished a chunk of her sweater.

ARB Birthday Special: Kensaku Morimoto

～ November 5th ～

“Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.”

Login Lines:

“I'm getting the feeling it can't play dumb about my birthday like last time. It didn't work out for me last year, so I might as well surrender. Free stuff isn’t the worst thing anyways!”

“Hey, free things! Nah, I kid, I kid. Thank you for the gift.”

Voice Lines:

“Ah… You know, having partners means they're probably going to try and do something for me. Mmm… I'll let it happen this year, but maybe I should tell them that having them in my life is enough. No need for extravegant surprises or presents.”

“Apparently, my niece has started baking so my little brother and his family are coming over to deliver a cake to me. Maybe I'll go out to lunch with them… It'll be nice to catch up with Hayato.”

“Oh, Asato-kun! It's good to see you! Hm? Yeah, I've been fine. Nobody has come for my bounty yet. Then again, I doubt anyone is wanting to do anything to our team! What? Oh yeah, except him, haha.”

“What did you forget? Oh, presents! Haha, ‘I make horrible science puns but only periodically’? Where’d you find this? Of course I like these cheesy things, I love them! Thank you Asato-kun! And something from Toshiko, huh? A picnic set? Why did she… Oh. Oh! I guess I did tell her about Jakurai and Sayaka. Or more like she forced it out of me. Huh? Did I not tell you guys? Wait, really? I’m sorry! Here, I’ll explain it later… N-Now? Asato, I don’t think- Calm down, kiddo!”

“Hello Yano… I forgot to tell Asato about Jakurai and Sayaka. Yeah, it just slipped my mind. H-Hey! I’m just a little caught up with stuff… It’s nothing like that, Yano. Don’t be gross…”

“It’s a couple of things! Let’s see what the book is first… ‘The Drunken Botanist’? …Yano. Really? You better be honest, I don’t appreciate you mocking me. Pfft, okay fair, fair. Still, this looks like an interesting read! Now the second thing… Aw, cute! They fit together? How do you- Oh, thank you Yano-kun. That is adorable! I’m sure they’ll like their cats too. Wait, is it really that much of a surprise? I guess I wasn’t sure what exactly I was feeling with Jakurai since I thought my days of experimenting my sexuality was long past… What’s that face for? Don’t judge me for being slow about that. Sure, sure, just ‘surprised’.”

Asato Lines:

“Happy birthday Ken sensei… Mhm. Have you been safe? Yeah… I guess nobody is really hunting us down. Well? Yano might be different. Since he has ties to the yakuza, I guess. It must be rough for him…”

“Ah, almost forgot. This is for you. The little retractable badge clip. Looked like the cheesy stuff you like. And gramma insisted I deliver this to you. Not sure why she wanted you to have this thing… Something about you being able to put this to better use…Huh? Jakurai… Saya… Since when? Why didn’t you say? Hmph… No, you gotta tell me now. How long have you been keeping it secret? Sensei…!”

Yano Lines:

“What the hell did you say to get Asato so upset? …You seriously forgot to tell your teammate about your new relationship? Are you stupid? Yeah, I’m sure you’re busy. Anyways, don’t bother sharing your sappy romantic stuff. Just take this gift.”

“Have fun digging around that bag. It’s not much, but you’re hard to buy for old geezer. Heh, figured you could put your two hobbies together. No, I’m not making fun of you! I told you, you like your booze and you do science shit with plants, so? See, I know you at this point. Yeah, that keychain is a set of three. They go together. N-No not like that… Just hand it over. See? Just like that. I figure as a celebration for being able to finally confess, you get your own little cat. Still, you liking Jakurai caught me off guard… I’m not judging! I’m just surprised, prick!”

Longbottom's & Potter's Debate)

So, I've been thinking a lot lately since it's October and almost nearing the fates of the Potter's and the Longbottom's. I was curious what you guys all think about the Longbottom's place in the Marauder's fandom? More specifically their ages.

Now, I am going to preface, I am ignoring the movies for this. SO, if you've only seen the movies, you can jump in with your own opinions, but I'm basing my thoughts on calculated guesses. Not facts, but definitely more towards more realistic guesses.

I see a lot of fanon put Frank and Alice in the same year as the "marauders' (I am putting this in brackets because it was never officially confirmed that that's what they called themselves. Other than the map of course.). However, I'm not convinced that they were even at Hogwarts together, because if you re member in the Harry Potter books, it's quoted somewhere (I will find the actual quote and put it here when I do) that they were well-known Aurors by the time they were tortured into Insanity.

They were veterans, so that makes me think they have at least 5 to 10 years of being Aurors to be considered veterans in their field. More likely 10 as Google says Veterans are typically someone that's been working in their fields for 10 + years.

Let's say that Frank and Alice have been Aurors, 7 years. Nice number and it goes with the theme of them having been at Hogwarts for 7 years. You can add or take whatever, but I'm just going to choose 7, because why not. I would say as long as you stick within 5 to 10 years, because yeah, veteran meaning 2 years in the field is nice, but not really a veteran yet.

1981-7 =1974. This is when they'd have started their career.

1974 - 3 (years of training) would put them starting their training in 1971 (I remember reading somewhere training was 3 years. I will find this as well and put it here when I find it)

So, lets' say they start directly after Hogwarts, so they'd have already graduated by the time the Marauders started Hogwarts. Sometime in 1964.

That means that they would have been at Hogwarts during the time the Black Sisters or at least closer in age to them than the Marauders.

I am not 100% sure about Andromeda Tonks, but I do know she's the oldest, so she'd have been born around or before 1951. Either way, she's probably already graduated

Bellatrix would have already graduated as she was born in 1951 and was around 20 years old when the Marauders started at Hogwarts.

Narcissa was born in 1955, so would have been around her 5th year? She was in her 6th year when the Marauders were starting. Malfoy was a seventh year and a Prefect (pretty sure he didn't make Head boy? I'll double check that.

As for the Potter's, I also see James as an Auror written a lot, and while that's plausible, he'd have been just starting out, and even then, he'd not have been an Auror long before he went into hiding. You see, the Potters would have just turned 21 when they died. If they graduated Hogwarts in 1977 and let's say James did become an Auror, he'd have just finished his training the year before. 1977 (when they graduated) + 3 years of training makes him becoming Auror in 1980. However, Lily got pregnant sometime in late 1979 (she'd have to be pregnant in November of 1979 to have Harry in July of 80), and the prophecy was either made shortly before that or directly after he was conceived, meaning they'd have gone in hiding shortly after. So, while I'm sure James was good at his job (he probably did a lot of field work most likely while in the Auror before he went into hiding), it's likely became an Auror, but was never able to actually work in that field, or if he did, not for long, or he never became an Auror.

This is just all speculation though just based on what little I know about the Auror and their ages. Again, you can agree or disagree, but thought it was an interesting topic.

What do you guys think? Sound off below.

[a-student-out-of-time]

Right, you guys are gonna have kids fairly soon, right? That's gonna take a lot of planning

I actually have been planning things with that in mind.

Hajime, do you remember when Taito-kun will be born?

He said November 2014, right?

Yes. November 5th, specifically. You know what means?

What?

He's probably a valentine baby~

Ah...s-so...

Mikan...I-I know that gives us a year, but...are you sure about this?

I know, it's a big deal and I don't want to pressure you...

I just...I wanted to know if you'd maybe okay with this. Considering you want to start working, I still have my job as a nurse, and the others can all contribute too...I want to believe it's doable.

And it's just...I know Iroha-chan still has her son, he's just younger now. Maybe that means that Taito would still be around if we decided to wait...

But...she's also got Divine Luck. Kn-knowing how bad my luck is, I...don't know if it's worth the risk...I'm sorry if I'm being really selfish right now, I j-just...

Mikan? Look at me please?

Y-Yes?

I know how important this is to you. I've always had that in mind, ever since I came back.

The thing about being an Ultimate Despair is that you...you inflict despair on yourself in whatever hurts the worst. You crush whatever dreams you had, you...do horrible things to yourself in the most ironic ways possible...out of that twisted sense of...ugh, you get it.

Yeah...

We used to talk about it a lot on Jabberwock too. I understand how important this is, and I never want you to feel uncomfortable about talking about it with me.

Thank you...

And I know this is going to take a lot of planning, a lot of work and there's gonna be a lot of commentary from people who have no idea what's going on.

But hey, we're already working toward making a better future, right? This is our part of that.

*Mikan rests her head on his shoulder*

You guys are so adorbs, I can't even describe it!

Hey, guys! I'm still not like fully back here just yet, since my mental health is still... in not the best state, to say the least,

but I just wanted to give a quick update on things regarding my Hoffstrahm fanfic ("You Two So Alike")

okay, so you know how I said, the last time, that I'll most likely publish the next chapter very soon? The reason why that did not happen yet is 'cause my laptop broke completely in October 😅

I find it best to edit chapters and publish my works, in general, on my laptop, it's hard for me to do it on my phone ;/ So that's why it's gonna take a while for me to publish the 4th chapter, after all

Good news is! I still keep writing it, so once I do get a new laptop somewhere between the end of November and the beginning of December, you won't have to wait too long for the 5th chapter! Meaning that I'll publish the 4th chapter then and after a week or maximum two (I don't think editing it is gonna take me that long, but saying 'maximum' just in case) you'll get the 5th chapter too! So I think that's pretty neat in all of this!

I wish I didn't have to wait for so long to deliver those to you, because I'm genuinely so curious what you guys will think of these chapters, but that's the "beauty" of electronic devices, you never know when they'll fail you 😅

Anyways, I'm off again for now, 'cause being here for longer won't serve me well for now, but I do remember my promise about some new content, once I do come back, do not worry about that! Hope that'll make up for my inactivity here, I do also hope you did not forget about me yet aaadhdhdh Have a nice day/night, guys!!!
