Kentaro Kumagai, the voice actor who plays Laios in Delicious in Dungeon, was a guest commentator on DDT recently. He requested, and got, a kiss from Dieno!

He also did a great job on commentary - I had no idea, but it turns out he's a big pro wrestling fan.

His review of the kiss, from his twitter:

"I've achieved the one thing I desired as a pro wrestling fan...! his lips were soft!!"

[guujikaroko]

I think all the Edo-adjacent/Guda Guda Servants have the same person as the writer for their Valentine's Day scenes (Keikenchi is the name, I think) and it's... Very noticeable. Veeeeery noticeable, in the way that all the male ones have this unmistakable otome game vibe.

Izou? Pathetically crying while drunk out of his ass and then stealthily telling Guda to not leave him.

Hijikata? Princess carry, Guda wearing his coat, tsundereness.

Hajime? Worrying about his Master and then offering an escape. Escape together with him, that is.

Takasugi? Bossing Guda around so they can stay close to him, lap pillow, declaration of possessiveness out of godamn nowhere.

Shinpachi? Cute movie date, they let Guda rizz the old man version too.

Like... I'm definitely forgetting someone here, but Keikenchi is the patron saint of fanservice at this point.

(...Now that I think about it, though... the Edo period is like, very prominent in otome games already, isn't it? FGO is just following the trope at this point.)

Can I request Okada Izou (Assassin) with a soft master who doesn’t say much?

Warnings: Canon Typical Violence, Talk of Low Self-Esteem (Izou), Talk of Murder

Izou was really bothered by your soft spoken-ness when he first summoned. He’s so loud and brash, it was hard for him to understand that you truly didn’t mind him. He’s very self-conscious in the beginning because of it and will come off more standoffish than usual. Give him some time to get used to you and he’ll warm up.

He’s very protective of you because you don’t talk a lot. He feels like people use it as an excuse to walk all over you and he’ll never let that happen. Izou is always in your corner and doesn’t let anyone talk shit about you. He’s also a really good interpreter; because of your bond he knows how you feel and is on top about doing what you want even if you never say it out loud.

Izou often gets in trouble because of his mouth and feels like you’ll shame him because of it. Talk to him when he’s feeling down, assure him that you’re not disappointed and are more than happy with him as a Servant. He soaks your praise up like a sponge; one because he loves your voice and two because it’s so rare for you to speak. Save most of your words for him and he’ll feel very special.

The two of you make an interesting pair to people watching. You seem opposite in every way; Izou is loud where you’re quiet. You seem more willing to compromise and work together. The best thing, in Izou’s mind, about you being his Master, is that you fight well together. You have a knack for working with Assassins and he never has to worry about offending you. As quiet as you are, you understand what it takes to kill and Izou respects that. A perfect match.

[talesofedo]

This requires very little imagination.

Okita Soji would have, at any time, without any doubt or hesitation.

Even being as sick as he was when the Shinsengumi returned to Edo, he tried to go on to Aizu with them, insisting he would be fine. He had to be forced to stay behind in Edo to recover, although he was so sick at that point that staying behind amounted basically to hospice care.

After Kondo Isami died, people were sworn to keep it a secret from Soji, who would have felt immensely guilty that he couldn't have been there to protect him. Had Soji been there, he would have tried to protect Kondo, even knowing full well that he didn't have the strength to do so anymore.

---

Okada Izo spent most of his adult life following Takechi Hanpeita like an eager puppy waiting to be told what to do next, willing to compromise himself and commit murder if Takechi asked him to.

He would have protected him with his life, to his last breath, had Takechi not screwed that up. As things were, Izo lived through 10 months of torture in Tosa without giving up any information on Takechi or his comrades in the Kinnoto, even though they had used him like a disposable tool and looked down on him as an idiot for most of his life.

His loyalty only wavered when he found out that Takechi was trying to poison him because he didn't trust that Izo would be able to keep quiet and wouldn't give up all of the information he had.

Had he not felt so betrayed, he might have never confessed and protected them until the end.

Imagine your favorite historical figure having to sacrifice themselves to save their loved ones

Hmmm upcoming cloverworks film written by Mari okada…….. this is a must watch for me

[gldnlvrs]

someone on twt saying two non aew friends are the good brothers and i would kill myself

[cassandraclown]

Ibushi is still in the Elite so imagine his confusion when the bucks are just like “Yeah we fired your boyfriend, we suspended Hangman because he’s kinda gone insane and also fucking Okada is here now pretty cool right”

[nextstopwonderland]

Yuta has been a key part of Bryan’s road to Wembley from the beginning. He was the catalyst for Bryan to enter the Owen Hart tournament, after Bryan saw how fired up his was to come back after being injured

Prior to Bryan’s first Owen match with Shingo at FD, Yuta gets targeted in an in-ring segment that very much mirrored last year’s pre-FD segment with Bryan, Yuta, and Okada.

Bryan cuts a promo afterward feeling angry and protective because he knows someone who just came back from injury was in harms way for him.

In the middle of all of this, Nigel is continuing to say on Collision that Wheeler should break away from the BCC and go out on his own. In the middle of all this, he drops the Pure belt but not before he does the Cattle Mutilation, Bryan’s signature submission hold, during the match with Lee.

Then on Rampage, Bryan accompanies Yuta for his match against the Butcher and then goes on comm where he talks about how they’ve been training so much together, and working on a lot of things. One of those is revealed to be Wheeler using the Cattle Mutilation again, and this time he’s able to get it for the win.

Bryan is ridiculously proud.

The next night on Collision a promo drops of Bryan and Wheeler training together to get Bryan ready for Swerve and Wembley, not unlike when Bryan was getting Mox ready for Windy City.

Again, throughout this Nigel is still instigating that Yuta should break away, despite the two of them seeming stronger than ever.

On Dynamite, Bryan has his Anything Goes match with Jarrett, and Yuta runs out after to check on him. Swerve comes out, decides maybe he needs his own ‘get ready’ match and chooses Yuta. And tells Bryan he has to watch as he dismantles him.

Yuta is more than ready, Bryan calms him down telling him to wait until next week.

The next day it’s announced Bryan will be on commentary for Rampage again

So now we have a situation where Yuta, coming off an injury, could potentially get hurt again for Bryan while Bryan watches on.

See rampage commentary:

Possibility the way they play this is Yuta gets “injured”, Bryan feels guilty but more than that he feels fucking pissed and now there’s real heat behind their match.

Also: Claudio will be in the building next week, perhaps Mox returns? maybe there’s hangman interference? I believe a lot could go down at the end of this match to drive things into a fever pitch.

ETA: how it went down with swerve - the dragon was unleashed:

My Yandere Neighbor (Manga)

Created by:  杏蜜

Genre: Comedy/Slice of Life

So this is a translation that we picked up, and while we have five chapters of raws currently, only one of them has been translated and typeset, so we'll be going off of that. The story so far has some yandere action between Kishi and Okada but is overall pretty light, with Okada mostly just being confused and slightly offput by Kishi as of now.

The story starts out with Okada working with Kishi and her being offput by him as he seems to be following and noticing very minute details about how many inches of hair she's cut off of her bangs and that she's sighing more than usual. We learn that Okada has recently been promoted to Art Director and is currently very busy. Kishi can be helpful towards Okada which she appreciates but is still a bit weirded out by her reaction. We get a backstory about how the two meet with Kishi grumbling outside and Okada concerned and bringing him in so they can talk. We find out that Kishi has been mistreated by his boss, as he's made a mistake which caused his boss to severely berate him and forcing him to apologize to everyone. Okada feels sympathetic towards Kishi and his situation and decides to help by talking to her boss about it to get the situation resolved. This leads to Kishi being transferred to her department, allowing him to get a better job and to be closer to Okada, which leads to him just becoming a stalker. We get to Kishi hanging out with coworkers after hours, with them eventually rooting for Okada to look after him after hearing his story. Kishi then goes on an entire thing where he talks about how much he worships her and even ends up following her to the bathroom just to tell her that they were all going to sing karaoke. When it's Okada's turn to sing, Kishi brings an entire boom mic just to record her, though Okada promptly shuts it down. After singing and drinking, Kishi brings her home and he's pretty drunk and she's shocked to find that the two are now neighbors as he's moved in next door.

So already starting out, we can kind of see how the comedy of Kishi and Okada has unfolded, though it doesn't seem like it'll be a very drastic in terms of yandere actions are more of a light comedy type of thing, at least so far considering Okada's attitude. She doesn't seem really scared of Kishi only weirded out by the things that he does and Kishi is at least kind enough respond to Okada when she tells him not to do something like go into the girl's bathroom as well as try to actually help her during her job. This seems like a quirky love that might bloom between them then, along with a lot more comedic moments, though it's hard to judge from the first chapter alone.

Kishi himself seems to be the worshipping type as noted by his own words (and his own imaginations of him), which makes a lot of sense considering Okada basically was able to fish him out of an abusive boss and eventually land him a much better and healthier job. Most of his actions are strange, but relatively harmless, from trying to record Okada's voice while singing karaoke, to knowing what kind of tea she likes, to I guess following her to the bathroom. I imagine as the series continues, these actions will just get more and more bizarre but ultimately harmless and only really affecting Okada's suspension of disbelief. If they wanted to go a more serious route, they could also probably run in the direction of Kishi slowly realizing that Okada isn't as much of a goddess as he thinks she is, treating her more as person as the story goes on, or maybe just continuing the hijinks as they are.

Anyways, I'm curious to see where this series will go after all of this time. Since we're translating it, I would be very happy if you all read it so I can see your reactions.

[marq-lynch]

Don't worry guys Okada was already curled up neatly in the backseat of the Bucks' Expedition for nap time. Yeah he got a little too amped up about getting to do a sneaky heel tunnel entrance, get his secret little spot to interfere, then sneak back out. He was super excitable about what a good job he did and kept yelling 'Bitch' once he was out of earshot, but Cutler got him a juice box and some of his favorite crackers and asked him to help rip up legal envelopes of evidence until he got sleepy. The Bucks would never just leave their favorite little blond behind in a messed up situation to fend for himself, could you imagine?

[mjfass]

Imagine if 4 years ago someone would have told you were going to watch Kazuchika Okada and Orange Cassidy vs Claudio Castagnoli and Bryan Danielson for free on a regular Wednesday. IMAGINE.

[bisexual-kane]

So, an interesting thing about AEW is that all of their titles are important. Most of the time, their belts are held by people who could believably be the world champion. Okada is the Continental Champion. Mercedes Mone is the TBS Champion.

And that's cool, but sometimes it would be fun to have an actual mid-card title. Like, could you imagine the shenanigans Harley Cameron could get up to if she were, like, the Rampage Champion?

[ringsidechoir]

The work of defending the assembled Pacific coasts against Kaijus should be impartial, humble, and for the greater good. Unfortunately, that work is done by people, who aren't very inclined to any of these three things. Or: Will Ospreay, Kyle Fletcher, and the Tiger Driver.

...hey, guys! i wrote a multichapter pacific rim AU fic. it's the longest single thing i've ever completed. i don't know what got into me. it's inspired by @aerodaltonimperial and @freshlyhooked's fic drift compatible which is amazing and heartwrenching and sold me on AU fics. will and kyle were mentioned for like 10% of the fic and i pointed at them and went "What's going on there."

so, shake tramp was born. below the cut is, borrowed from an out-of-fandom friend, my liner notes! thoughts about what i included, my process, some funny lines i said while losing my mind writing this thing, reasonings, and the moments i took and changed from canon. here there be spoilers! ...for my fic! ...and i guess wrestledream?

let's start with the title! it's taken from shake tramp by the canadian band marianas trench, off their first album. my friend irl is a superfan of this band, so we'd went to go see them twice on their latest tour, and got VIP tickets both times which allowed us into a Q&A segment! one of the questions asked of the lead singer-songwriter was something along the lines of "are there any songs that were received differently than you thought it would by the fans?" his reply, paraphrased, was: "shake tramp is actually a serious song. when we'd been looking around for a music label, none we contacted would accept us with two of the original members of the band. and we kept being like, no, fuck you, take us all, but we kept asking, and it kept being the same. so we let them go. i wrote this song talking to myself, calling myself a sellout and a whore. ...and then it was really catchy, and our music video for it is silly, but it's a serious song."

so i thought of kyle. wanting to keep his integrity and his best friend, but just not being able to.

Did I let you down to get that sound?

they slap you like a bitch and you take it like a whore.

my fic-writing style is usually to stick to canon and fill out the lacunae around it, and that ended up being no different with shake tramp. which is wild. CHAPTER ONE

chapter one's kaiju fight and the argument with will and kenny are taken from the same night; 8/24/22. it's the trios title tournament before all out '22-- united empire defeats death triangle. the kaiju is named stonehitch because it turns out that the death triangle is also a rock-climbing anchor that actually sucks and does its job terribly. a stone hitch is a similar anchor that... kind of has the same problem, but not really. i never said these names were clever. as for the argument: here it is in its canon form.

"I gave you the impossible task of filling my shoes. But maybe I shouldn't've given you a pair of shoes when you still haven't grown out of your diapers."

REAL LINE. other assorted details: - i'd mentioned in the comments of ch1, but the whole thing about decompression sickness at the beginning is real! in will ospreay's close up with renee paquette, she's talking to him about what planes do to HER body, and how she can't imagine how will feels, with what he does for a living. will starts his reply with, "i'm constantly in pain," and then goes on to say that the plane ride actually ends up meditative and peaceful. but i was like Ah. Yay. A bad thing occurring - marshal omega's medals are meant to parallel his belts in his belt collector run. callis goes right to straightening them. - will is weirdly drift-compatible with a lot of people, but i end up only mentioning okada here in the rainmaker. aussie open is its own jaeger, and so's united empire! will only starts using the tiger driver as a move after he came back from wrestle kingdom 17-- where will gets his ass thoroughly handed to him by kenny.

CHAPTER TWO

chapter two starts with mark breaking his wrist 10/01/23. yes, we've timeskipped pretty far. i cannot thank gh0st-patr0l enough for the kyle fletcher correspondence, which helped me get this as close to canon as it could've been! kyle doesn't start out as a singles guy. after mark breaks his wrist, will puts in a good word for kyle with callis, who teams him up with takeshita. when kyle eats the pin in their match with [shaky sigh] kenny omega and chris jericho, callis pits takeshita and kyle against each-other. that's what the second half of the spar scene is; 10/27/23. here that is. after the match, kyle gets so mad that he takes a chair to hobbs and takeshita's backs-- and callis says that's exactly what he wants. and yes, he DOES cradle kyle's face like a weird bald pervert.

additional details: - kyle does put on a lot of muscle after joining the DCF. i wistfully and artfully smoke a cigarette. - "the manchester" is a real restaurant. no, i haven't been to it, but i looked around on google maps for restaurants near LAX and it looked fine enough. i love to put wrestlers in restaurants that are real. - kyle immediately thinks that will's problems in tokyo are stemming from the other pilots. they're not, it's the kaiju causing problems, but the fact that kyle's mind doesn't jump to the kaiju first is... callis's influence. - for will, this is after the AU's equivalent of wrestle kingdom 17. he's not having a great time, but he's not telling anyone this. - welcome to ~march 2024! kenny has been out for three months. the bucks are already the sole EVPs-- i mean, co-marshals. - i jostled the order a little, but the sparring's all based off of matches will has in the ~early days of him being full-fledged in the DCF. vs hobbs, vs takeshita, vs kyle. - will's drift scene in this chapter is supposed to also be from wrestle kingdom 17. it really got to me, okay. kyle's is from just earlier in this chapter! - the kaiju they fight in this chapter is... uh, not seen, but it's supposed to be MJF. heatseeker is one of his finishers. will's feud with MJF ends up being about the tiger driver (move), so i thought it was perfect! after-fight dialogue taken largely from this clip, post kyle vs MJF.

CHAPTER THREE

this is the chapter post drift-compatible! we're now in the august-september 2024 season. despite this, will's conversation with callis is lightly taken from this clip in july. the kaiju fight is based off of will & kyle vs the young bucks at grand slam-- the kaiju's name taken... loosely from the arena they held grand slam in? arthur ashe? flash... bang? whatever. kyle's drift scene is from the equivalent of the MJF match, and will's is also from the above-linked clip. the kaiju's gimmick came to me in a dream. i made it up. it can't be hit by plasma weapons! and will's panic is from specifically chapter 7 of drift compatible, his side of being flung around after the EMP.

and the screwdriver. in the match, callis slips kyle a screwdriver to attack a buck with. to win the match. will stops him. it's proven to kyle, now, that he has to choose between his friend and his success.

ricochet is here! i can't believe i'm the first guy on ao3 to write and tag ricochet. their spar is loosely based off of their match, including takeshita's interruption at the end of it.

additional details - stamford is a WWE reference and i thought it was funny. - one of the people will drifted with in his little, for lack of a better term, time spent drifting around: bryan danielson! the legend! yup, this is dynasty 2024, one of my favorite matches of all time. the tiger driver (move) isn't alt'ed as dropping someone on their head, it's a headbutt, with most pilots in the head of their jaegers. usually, it's safe. sometimes, it isn't. that risk should not have been taken with brittle bones bryan. bonus: his jaeger is the american dragon, and his copilot is nigel mcguinness, who is so, so incandescently pissed that bryan got to name the jaeger, that bryan is more popular, that bryan got all the fame and nigel got benched. - takeshita grabs will's bad wrist.

CHAPTER FOUR

i had brutus (instrumental) on while writing half this chapter and i got really scared so i had to turn it off. kyle and callis's conversation comes from this clip, which is after this conversation between will and callis, where kyle couldn't take a screwdriver to will's head. the will-callis convo is later reused in the drift scenes!

kenny is officially out of the picture 5/1/24. the bucks and callis are doing some shady dealings. is anyone surprised.

the kaiju fight in this chapter is actually based off of will vs ricochet vs takeshita at wrestledream 2024! the name akiyama is taken from the innovator of the blue thunder bomb, jun akiyama-- the blue thunder bomb being, of course, takeshita's finisher. i was about to name it blue thunder, but i wanted takeshita to be a pilot in this fic, and not a kaiju. i kept all of these names pretty vague and distant from their wrestler-counterparts on purpose. the drift scenes are... oof. - will-callis conversation, mentioned above. will tries to show kyle this to shake his loyalty, but it doesn't work. - kyle's POV of the first will-kenny convo in chapter one. kyle seeing will as hotheaded and disrespectful. - will-kenny copiloting tiger driver in the equivalent of forbidden door '23, where in-canon will hits kenny with the tiger driver and solidifies his allegiance to don callis. showing kyle that will is just as bad, and just as petty. - the kyle-callis conversation from earlier this chapter. will forcibly redirects into a new memory because he cares, because he doesn't want to see kyle vulnerable and berated - and their first meeting. this is taken loosely from kyle fletcher's close up, where kyle tells renee his first meeting with will is unplaceable in either of their minds but definitely making fun of another wrestler. will wants this to be a reminder of their bond, but kyle reduces this to: "he'll always see me as that scrawny kid."

additional details: - i slipped in a PWG mention with the battle of los angeles line. i think i'm very funny. - private party have the same chest missiles that the actual jaeger in pacific rim, striker eureka, does! shots, shots, shots! - kyle does to will what the tiger driver does to monsters. headbutt. at the end of the match at wrestledream, kyle tiger-drivers will. - there's a really nice visual parallel between the pacific rim circuitry suits and the graphic kyle walks out to.

serendipitous.

CHAPTER FIVE (epilogue)

bet we all forgot about mark, right? he's back! he comes back 10/30/24, on fright night dynamite. his conversation with kyle and his conversation with will are, of course, also based off real conversations he has.

the end! i'm sure i have reasoning for like 90% of the things that happen in this fic, and my askbox is always open. thank you for reading :3
