zukka hp au part 5

I’m so flattered people like this au. I didn’t think I’d be posting again so soon, but I had some more ideas last night. If you’d like to catch up:

part 1 part 2 part 3 part 4 part 5 part 6 part 7 part 8 part 9 part 10 part 11 part 12 part 13

If you would like to join the tag list

My brief, very long, not at all fleshed out plan based roughly on what year Sokka is in and other associated events:

First year

Sokka’s first year is boring 

He meets Zuko, makes some friends in his house, probably a bunch of OCs

He finds the kitchens on day 2

Hogwarts just hires people who like to cook, who cares whether they’re magical beings or humans or whatever, there’s all sorts of really cool kitchen magic though

He’s always asking questions in class and you can tell why he’s a Ravenclaw

He wants to learn about everything

And once he knows how to do more than shoot a few sparks, he’s going to start inventing

He’s going to do some truly awesome things with transfiguration and potions

And I can’t wait for him to start arithmancy

Like let me tell you, Sokka is a genius, and he’s probably going to be the only one who understands magical theory 

This just ended up being a rant about Sokka, so moving on

Second year

The fun starts

Katara and Aang are finally here

Sokka doesn’t know Aang is the avatar

I’m very tempted to have both Katara and Aang be in Hufflepuff

And they run into Sokka in the kitchens

He does a double take, like who is this boy with my sister??

But Aang’s a sweet kid

So Sokka is immediately like we’re bros now, I don’t make the rules

Iroh starts working at Hogwarts (sorry, I changed my mind from herbology) as the potions professor

He comes in on the train with Zuko who just got banished (I actually...might change the specifics)

Sokka doesn’t know what to make of that

Azula is also skulking around annoying Zuzu 

But I think she secretly cares a bit and threatens anyone that looks at his scar wrong, because Zuko helped her a lot with some stuff

I think she’s going to be in the same year as Katara and Aang? I’m not sure

I have plans for Azula

I think Mai and Ty Lee are going to be in Zuko’s year, but closer to Azula

Mai and Zuko will date at some point

I think Mai will end up with Ty Lee

But she and Zuko had a short relationship

I think it was more expected of them by their families that they date

But they’re good friends now

I’m not doing this betraying and cheating and hurting other characters to find out who you are thing

Everyone is having wholesome relationships that just don’t work out

(Sidenote, I’m changing things, and characters might end up a bit OOC for atla, and I’m really sorry, but this is just wish fulfillment for me)

Anyway, there’s a plot to find the avatar 

The mini gaang (toph isn’t here yet) learn the prophecy (still working on it)

Third year

They find out about Sokka and Katara’s mom

I don’t think Hakoda really knows what happened either. I don’t think he was in the country at the time

I also have some ideas for the water tribe/fire nation beef, but I just made the realization that if I spell everything out in these posts, what’s the point of writing for Ao3 XD

But spoilers, it’s going to be pretty angsty

But I like happy endings, so I may find a way to fix it

Ish

I have this whole idea that if Suki or the Kyoshi are also werewolves, they have really cool rituals to respect and honor the moon spirit and that allows them the ability to turn into wolves whenever they want and not just the full moon

So other people can also be born as werewolves, but different groups have different ways of being a werewolf

Also, I believe I said Zuko starts following Suki around thinking she’s the avatar

And then Sokka decides to fake being the avatar (I completely forgot when I said this would happen, so I’m assuming it’s this year or the next)

This is about when Sokka’s letters to Hakoda start going on about Zuko’s everything even more

Fourth year

Zuko (Zuko’s fifth year) witnesses something unspeakable

Sokka is kidnapped

Zuko saves Sokka

That’s all the detail I have on this XD

But the unspeakable thing and the kidnapping are going to be this year’s mystery

Zuko, the idiot, still thinks Sokka is the avatar at this point

Aang is like no

But doesn’t bother to say he is

So Zuko thinks Katara is the avatar for a hot sec

But has some nonsense logic that there’s no need to stop following Sokka, because if he or his sister are the avatar, of the two, Sokka’s more likely to give something away

Which okay, Zuko, not actually terrible reasoning, except Sokka’s been leading you around by the nose for ages

There’s none of this the avatar rotates which element they can use

Because that’s predictable

And half the fun is that Zuko is trying his best, but has zero clues

Fifth year

This is the big question

I’m not sure what to do with this year

I hope Sokka can start inventing

I want him to make some cool shit

There won’t be an equivalent of the DA as far as I can see :( I can’t figure out how I’d structure that

I think it would be really cool to see them all learning how to use their elemental magic though

Toph and Zuko don’t really need the help

Katara and Aang have always had to deal with all the crap going on, so they haven’t had much time for it

I’m wondering if I should bring in Paku

Aang has it rough, because air magic users are really rare now

So I think he might work with Iroh, because he’s studied other styles of magic extensively

Sixth year

I think Mai had to figure out she was bi

I truly think Zuko doesn’t have time for gender

For like five years, he’s like DO YOU KNOW WHO THE AVATAR IS and if you don’t, he’s already forgotten who you are

So my headcanon is that he’s pan and when he and Sokka eventually get together, Sokka doesn’t know anything about his orientation and just knows he dated Mai, so he’s like “are you cool with me being a dude? Sorry, I just know you’ve dated Mai, so just checking haha?”

And Zuko’s so done with all the random crap he’s dealt with that he’s like “wow, you have a dick? Congratulations”

But then realizes Sokka’s actually concerned and talks it out

Anyway, everyone’s leveled up now, we’re all masters at elemental and non-elemental magic (seriously, Sokka could’ve sat for his NEWTs last year if he wanted to. He’s that far ahead and magic is that intuitive for him)

I have no idea what will happen this year lol

I kind of want an invasion of Hogwarts, I know I’ve been trying not to just blindly follow the books completely :/ So I guess we’ll see?

I’ll have to work on that

I’m such a sucker for the villain waits until the end of the school year to attack

Because it’s so dumb

Like I will find the avatar! *shakes fist* But education is important, kids

Like okay, Sozin

Maybe I can have Roku finally escape that mirror

I kind of want the past avatars to be spirits that anyone can interact with

But most people don’t know how

So the Kyoshi can interact with Avatar Kyoshi as well as other relevant spirits

Seventh year

????

The plot?? Who knows yet

I do know that Zuko’s graduated

And they’re all crying and like wtf do we do now

Because Sozin’s still around and they’ll miss him

And finally Zuko leaves

And he shows up as the assistant DADA professor and he’s like “Hi, Zuko here” and then he’s like “I mean, fuck, Professor Zuko, I mean, fuck...just call me Zuko. You guys all know me”

And the gaang is all like wtf Zuko, we thought we would only see you for breaks

And he’s like you really thought I’d leave you

The plan is that he’ll be an apprentice for a year or so and then take over as professor

Toph punches him so hard, Katara has to heal the bruise

I can guarantee a happy ending

I’ll do whatever angst on the way, but they’ll all be happy

I’m like 89% sure they’re all going to end up working at or around Hogwarts (why work for the government, when you can invest in teaching all these talented kids)

One more thing, there is going to be rep in this au. I know there’s at least one aro ace character. Multiple bi characters. One gay character. One pan character. One trans character that I know of, but I need to plan that out a bit more. Some of these orientations and identities, I can’t speak to personally. For instance, while I know a decent amount about the medical aspects of transitioning, I don’t think I’d be able to write the experience of gender dysphoria and give that its due right now. So unless it’s something I have first hand experience with, most of the individual emotions as part of figuring things out might happen off screen. That doesn’t mean I won’t bring up issues the characters may have had in the past, but any that I talk about, I’d have to do more research into first. Also, partly because this is mostly from Sokka and Zuko’s perspectives, we’re mostly going to be present for what other characters tell them about their experiences

I hope you continue to enjoy this au! Sorry, this got so insanely long. The next couple weeks are going to be a bit crazy for me, so I thought I’d write this up while I had the chance. I’ll be back soon though! If anyone has any suggestions or questions, please let me know :)

[It’s a lot again 😅 hope you don’t mind :D]

I might be going way too far with these answers, so please bear with me ^^’

Sorry for the long rambles but these are my answers!

7. Share a snippet from one of your favorite pieces of prose you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.

Oof. This is hard. There’s actually a lot of paragraphs that I like throughout the writing process. I can re-read and just pick which is my favorite, it’ll be different every time.

But, I think the thing currently going on with TW:OPT can be summed up in this Once Upon a Time… (I was being dumb and I thought prose is just poetry without rhyme)

So, this drabble is written on the run. There’s not really deep thought and I can’t even remember why I wrote it in the first place. From the date I posted it on Tumblr it was in the middle of Octavinelle Arc.

But, in this small crappy prose-poetry, it has one of the themes in TW:OPT: happy vs sad ending. This is something that I want to build since in the early stage. The theme of TW:OPT is second chances for the reincarnated villains, giving them a happy ending, something way better than the original ones.

So, if you look for example the two lines about the Queen of Heart:  

The Queen of Heart was forgotten by Alice like it was just a bad dream

The Queen of Heart will always be remembered by Alice as his dear friend and the greatest queen

The first line is what happens to the original Disney Alice’s Queen of Hearts, while the second line is what happens to Riddle, the current reincarnation of the Queen of Hearts. It’s a good change for Riddle’s life.

However, like everything, there has to be something to balance it. 

After all, good endings cannot exist without bad endings.

Can the good guys really live with the bad guys in harmony? After all, all Disney movie always has “good wins, evil lose” theme. If the “evil side” wins, wouldn’t that mean the “good side” loses? Is that even a good thing or even possible?

After all, the One-Eyed Captain found his happy ending to sail away once again. What will happen to him in his next life?

This line becomes the question. What will happen to the already-set happy endings? Would they just disappear to change into bad endings to keep the balance?

.

8. Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.

I’m debating between many dialogues, but I think the one piece I’m most proud of is in Chapter 97. I'm cutting a lot of the narration and just focus on the dialogues because it becomes too long.

Riddle: What happens that day? The day when everything went downhill. Azul: Didn't anyone tell you already? Riddle: I want to hear it from your or Jonah's mouth. What happened that you must curse him? Azul: Pretty simple, really. I told him not to come here that day, and he did To make it worse, that boy was stupid enough to go back against our agreement. Riddle: Just that? Azul: Oh, please, dear Crimson Ruler. I don't want to hear that from you. Have you forgotten about your reign before? Riddle: I know what I did was tyrannical, but I want to be better. Azul: Because of the captain told you too? Riddle: No. This is my choice to change. Just like it was your choice to curse him. He trusts you, you know? He knows that you wouldn't go back against your own words, which was why he was willing to sign another contract with you. Azul: If he trusts me that much, why is he against me? If he trusts me, why did he choose to save his stupid friends than agreeing with me? Tell me, Riddle Rosehearts...Why does he choose you instead of me?

We all know what happened during Octavinelle Arc and I don't deny that this sounds cheesy or slightly ooc. And let me just say this, there's no intention of this become a love triangle or whatsoever.

There are two things I want to highlight in this exchange: Riddle's growth and Azul's decline.

Riddle, after everything happened in Heartslabyul and Savanclaw arc, finally putting his foot down on where he wants to stand. He wants to be a better person, more than just the feared Crimson Tyrant. That's why he's helping them. Not because the boys are breaking the rules, not because someone tells him to, but Riddle is willing to risk it all, even his unique magic (as we see at the end of this chapter and the next) to save his friends. Again, this might sound ooc and I apologize, but from my perspective, this is a logical step of development for Riddle.

Meanwhile, Azul is showing more and more decline from this until the end of Octavinelle Arc even Scarabia Arc. For Azul who knows how easy people can leave and mock when you have nothing, seeing Jonah leave him and siding with the anemones is basically a betrayal. He can't think rationally when it comes to the betrayal and we see how brash he can be with anything related to Jonah throughout the arc where all of their interaction nearly kills Jonah.

If Riddle-Jonah is a coming-of-age story, Azul-Jonah is a broken friendship story.

.

9. Which fic has been the hardest to write?

This is a hard one to write. You might think I’ll just answer with TW:OPT, but honestly, all multi chapters fanfic has their own difficulties, so I can’t choose which is the hardest.

For Twisted-Wonderland: Our Precious Treasure, where I do treat this as a novel-writing practice, keeping the consistency with the theme, plot points, and characterization.

For Private Tutor, Angel of Death, Philza Minecraft, actually coming up with new ideas is hard because I don’t based this on anything, and just write anything once a week. In addition that I’m still new in Dream SMP fandom so characterization won’t be the strongest thing.

For both TWST MC Hybrid AU and Magical Girl AU, giving the massive cast equal spotlight and actually not getting lost is quite a challenge. Both AU has seven main characters and I need to give them the same amount to screen time.

And don’t get me started with those smut. I won’t be talking about it because I’m keeping it family friendly. Those has their own problems XD

.

10. Which fic has been the easiest to write?

As I said, every fic has their own problems, even one shot. So, I’m looking through my works and trying to figure out which fic I wrote the fastest but had the most fun.

I think I’ll go with A Wish for a Proposal because the comfort in this fic with Ace going heads over heels for Deuce and being doki-doki all the time. And the kiss under a shooting star, AH! Poetic cinema~

I do enjoy when I wrote how Ace thought keeping a toy ring as childish but he ended up using it to confess to Deuce and thinking that it’s not as childish as he thought.

.

13. What’s the best writing advice you’ve ever come across?

There are good writing advice that I had head, one of them came from On Writing: Great Character Descriptions! by Hello Future Me. He has so many good advices in writing and I highly recommend him.

He said that “when describing characters it’s good to focus on their movements that can tell the readers of who the characters are”. As someone who has many troubles in writing physical description, this is actually a great alternative, especially when you want to go thought the “show don’t tell”.

After watching the video I tried to write something. I ended up writing Jonah’s father, Benjamin, in Chapter 137

The owner of the inn was an old man who, coincidentally, also shared the 'Argentum' surname. Benjamin Argentum was a man with slouched back from the burden of the world, white strands on his reddish-brown hair and tired, but kind, black eyes. He walked slowly with his walking stick, claiming that his knees were never that strong since a cart accident during his younger days. The way he speaks was gentle like everyone's favorite uncle/grandfather, along with the delicious appetizer that he had prepared a few minutes ago on the reception table. The spices he used reminiscent of the spices Jonah used in his Ramshackle Kitchen. There was no way all of these were coincidences. Crowley wouldn't doubt if Jonah Argentum ever grew old, he would be looking exactly like the warm innkeeper.

I want to highlight how Benjamin is a kind old man ("He walked slowly with his walking stick, claiming that his knees were never that strong since a cart accident during his younger days”, ”The way he speaks was gentle like everyone's favorite uncle/grandfather”) but has his own problems (”a man with slouched back from the burden of the world”), and very similar to Jonah (”The owner of the inn was an old man who, coincidentally, also shared the 'Argentum' surname”, ”The spices he used reminiscent of the spices Jonah used in his Ramshackle Kitchen”, “Crowley wouldn't doubt if Jonah Argentum ever grew old, he would be looking exactly like the warm innkeeper.”)

It’s not the best descriptions, because most of the example used highlight only one most recognizable feature while my description highlight nearly everything. I still need some practice.

.

14. What’s the worst writing advice you’ve ever come across?

“Write what’s mainstream”.

Here’s my problem with it: sometimes anything that’s mainstream is not my thing. I like to challenge what we are given and give it a spin. 

I mentioned before that growing up with Indonesian TV Series that only centers around love, riches, and cheating, I grew tired of it. That was why I once tried to make a script for a group of friends creating a classical music band and mental problems. 

I’m not the first one to make an adaptation of TWST, but I think I’m one of the first, at least in AO3, that make an adaptation with Male MC. Among the Female MC or Female Readers story with a hint (or too much) of Romance, I want to give something for the small group who wants Male MC or something more platonic to read.

I always want to push slightly further, trying something that I haven’t seen at first glance, giving varieties. I will admit that would always doubt whether me writing something different is even worth it or not. But when I saw that yes, this is worth it, I gain more confidence and become bolder in my twist.

Going against the mainstream is risky, but we'll see whether it's worth it or not.

.. 

16. If you only could write one pairing for the rest of your life, which pairing would it be?

Oh no... Does it have to be a romantic pairing?

Okay. I don't really have an OTP. I mean, I like ROnah and JonAzul, but I don't think I can't live with writing only about them.

So, romantically, I don’t know. But, this doesn’t help with platonically either because I find enjoyment in writing all relationship. Just pushing the limit of my writing, you know?

So, I don’t think I can answer this because I’m a coward XD

.

27. How do you feel about collaborations?

A mixed bag.

So currently I'm in at least 2 collab projects: TWST MC Hybrid AU and Arisu in Alternate Wonderland. In the former, I'm the group leader, while in the latter, I'm just a writer.

Both sidea are different experiences. With AiAW, it's definitely lighter because this is basically retelling TWST but with seven Yuus. However because of this freedom and the possibilities of anything, I cannot predict whether my oc action will affects in the future or how they would interact with other ocs in the project.

With Hybrid AU, since this is a fantasy au, anything can happen. Plus as the main writer, I can see and plan clearly which event will be important and setting the characters' arc. It's definitely harder to organize because of the various idea that we want to write.

So, yeah. Collaboration can be two things for me: a scripted roleplay or a freestyle roleplay

.

35. Would you ever kill off a canon character?

*looking at draft for TW:OPT Book 2*

Maybe...?

.

39. Do you ever get rude reviews and how do you deal with them?

I remember when I was a kid, I wrote a fanfiction where it only features OCs, and someone gave a review, ranting about the lack of canon characters. I, of course, sulked a bit but then just keep writing.

However, what I usually do when it comes to comments is take them into considerations. During Scarabia Arc I got a comment that the Jonah-Azul therapy moment is kinda weak, and rereading it, I can see that. Which was why the next part of the therapy Arc I tried to connect them further. So compare the JonAzul scene in the last part of Chapter 124 with the first part of Chapter 126. At least for me, I prefer the latter because there's more intimacy.

Lost and Found - Chapter 20: Home

(A/N: here it is! The last chapter of lost and found! I'm honestly kinda sad it's over, even tho I know there's more after this XD and even tho it was badly written and the characters were definitely ooc it was still precious to me)

Flower language! ...I think. I got it off this website so if I get some meanings wrong blame them

Today's song is inspired by this as of yet unreleased piece- hence the live and not a recorded audio

https://youtu.be/3tQ0gbjMwoM

It was a good day. The sun was high in a deep blue sky, not a cloud to be seen. The green grass took the opportunity to bask in the warm light.

It was a good day to come back home, Faith had decided as she stood in front of the small, dilapidated house. The jar in her hands felt heavier than it was at the sight of it.

"Is this it?" Lady murmured, taking in the view. "Your old home?"

"Duh. It's a house," Dante replied as he studied the rusted gate that blocked the three from the property. "If it wasn't important to her, we wouldn't be here."

Faith sighed at her friends' antics, but she didn't have the heart to reprimand them.

"...Sorry. It's already hard on you, isn't it?" Her friend rested a hand on her shoulder, blue-red eyes gazing into her gold ones. "You okay?"

"I... don't know," she answered honestly. "I thought I'd never come back here."

"Then why did you?" the male asked, an eyebrow raised.

She looked down at the jar. Even though it was filled with nothing but dust, it felt loaded with memories.

"I think... I needed to," she decided, even though she still felt unsure. "I need to close the final chapter."

"Aren't you scared?"

"Of course I am." She swallowed the lump in her throat. "But I'm hoping it means that I'm doing the right thing."

His eyes widened, but he made no sound.

He feels conflicted, she realized. But for what reason, she didn't know.

Maybe he'd tell her, one day. When he was ready.

In the meantime, she focused on the self-appointed task at hand. Taking in a deep breath, she pushed open the squeaking gate and took a step into her father's now overgrown garden.

Patches of his favorites were in bloom- lupines, butterfly weeds, and pink carnations- they dotted the green with spots of color.

The sweet smell of nectar was heavy and familiar, and she couldn't stop the tiniest of smiles from flickering on her lips.

She had loved this garden as a child. She still did.

But it wasn't what she came back for.

Taking in a deep breath, she unlocked the door and pushed it open. The smell of old wood immediately hit her nose.

Dante sneezed. "Hella dirty in here." She couldn't help the harsh look she shot his way. He flinched. "Sorry."

"Apology accepted." She stepped into the house, and nearly collapsed at the raw power of nostalgia that washed over her.

For a brief moment, she thought she saw a child running through the old hallways, a man chasing after her with a big smile on his face.

"Faith," Lady whispered.

"Huh?"

"You're crying."

"Oh." When she reached up to touch her eyes, her fingertips came back wet. She turned around to see her companions also wiping away their own tears. "Are you two okay?"

"Just fine, actually," he mumbled with a sniff. "It's just the dust."

That was not true. "...Okay."

She didn't ask him for more. He had his reasons.

Faith took her time reacquainting herself with the house. The old TV where she watched cartoons. The dining table where she got scolded for carving into the leg of a chair.

She hadn't realized just how much she missed it.

Dante emerged from the right hallway, a photograph frame in his hands. His eyes were watery. "Hey. I... I found this. In one of the rooms? I figured you'd want it."

She reached for it, and their fingers brushed against each other. Grief and understanding passed between them, and he linked their hands together.

The photo was of her father and mother, his arms wrapped around her while she cradled a small bundle. A baby. Their faces held so much joy it made her heart ache.

A glimpse into what could have been.

When she turned it around, written in unfamiliar penmanship were the words: Faith. Our perfect little miracle.

"Are those your parents?" she heard Lady ask. She could feel her peering over her shoulder. "They look happy."

"They were, I think. They are now, I hope." She forced a tiny smile on her face, but it didn't quite reach her eyes. "Wherever they are."

"Wherever they are," her friend agreed, giving her a tight hug from behind.

Faith was suddenly so relieved to have her friends by her side. She wasn't sure if she had the strength to do this alone.

Letting out a breath she hadn't realized she was holding, she began to shuffle towards the back door. Lady was still clinging to her back like a koala, and Dante appeared to have no intention of letting go of her hand anytime soon.

She didn't have the heart to push them away, not when they were giving her so much reassurance.

After a brief period of awkward yet hilarious adjustment, they managed to squeeze through the door to the spacious backyard, where more flowers bloomed and the wooden fence that separated them from the cliff had long since cracked with age and salt.

Memories of picnics in the meadow and violin lessons began to flicker behind her eyelids.

The smell of the sea was cleansing. She wondered if her father had enjoyed the ocean, or if her mother did.

The clay jar was cool to the touch. It was time.

Delicately pulling the two off her, they stood to the side as she set the container down and opened the lid. Almost immediately, the breeze began to lightly pick at the ashes on the top, sending a few flakes spinning into the air.

Already longing for freedom.

Summoning her violin, she played a light melody- the very first song her father taught her. And she closed her eyes.

Dreaming...

The sun felt warmer. Behind her, she thought she heard Lady gasp.

In the darkness of her mind, she could see a bright star being born- a soft light that would guide others still lost on their way.

And she prayed for one thing:

Find happiness.

Longing...

And as the wind began to pick up, she sent out her hopes:

Find happiness.

Finding you.

There was a soft, hollow rattle. She dared to open her eyes.

The jar was empty.

He was free.

For a while, Faith just stared out into the vast ocean, lingering on the small specks of gray that floated their way down to the water.

A finger gently swept under her eyes, catching tears she didn't realize were there.

"How do you feel?" Dante asked quietly, a strange look of concern on his face.

The heaviness in her heart hadn't disappeared.

...But it did feel lighter than it was before.

"I'm managing," she said quietly.

He nodded, and said nothing more. Lady silently moved to her side and rested her head on the small girl's shoulder.

They stared out into the horizon, each lost in their own thoughts.

Until Dante murmured, "I'm hungry."

"Oh my God, you insensitive prick!" Lady hissed.

Faith couldn't help but laugh. "Is that so?"

"Do you not hear my stomach grumbling?"

"Kinda hard not to," the other girl muttered with a sharp roll of her eyes. "It's like a chainsaw."

"It is not!"

"Well, it looks like chainsaw child is hungry. You want some chicken nuggets?" she teased.

"...Are there any?" he asked, further proving Lady's hidden point.

Faith chuckled. "There's a nice cafe on Main Street that makes crepes, if you're hungry."

"Hell yeah!" With a whoop, he began tugging on her arm, practically dragging the two women back to the house. "Lady's paying!"

"Then I'm adding it to your debt!"

As her friends continued to squabble, she couldn't help but smile. The corners of her eyes crinkled.

And she breathed.

You feel like home.

HOW DO YOU RUN YOUR BLOG

TAGGED BY: The wonderful @ofchaldea​ ! Thanks a bunch for tagging me ! ^^

TAGGING: @extravachance @falsebeing @fallasea @lovcsiick @daemonusdea @caliburnus @senshoujo @unladylikc @oflittlebellsandyuzus @sentientbook @wxiren @leaveyourhead @avianflame and anyone else who’d like to do this meme ! ^^

SPEED: Very slow, especially when school is in session. There have been times in the past where it’s taken me more than a couple months to reply to threads. ^^; Even while I’m on vacation, I don’t tend to reply very quickly, either —– it takes weeks for threads, I think ? Oh, and inbox stuff tends to be even slower than threads, which is why I try not to reblog memes that often. ^^; Also, I tend to queue everything these days, so that’s another reason why replies might be slow.

REPLIES: I’m also a person who hates dropping threads, so I almost never drop threads. I’ll always reply to threads, even if it takes months for me to do so. ^^ I track threads from starter calls, meme replies, plotting, and, of course, anything that other people have requested for me to write for them. Basically, I track everything that has developed into a reblogged / rebloggable thing, no matter how silly or insignificant it might seem at the time, because I’ve had crack threads that have developed into serious, in-depth multi-para threads before. And if you’re wondering where your thread is, please refer to the ThreadTracker. ^^ As stated in my rules, I archive threads after the other mun hasn’t replied for a month, and I untrack threads after the other mun hasn’t replied for two months, although I’m willing to continue threads even if the other mun replies after two months. ^^ And if you’re worried about whether I saw your thread or not, feel free to message me, but please don’t message me every day / multiple times a day about a thread. ^^; As far as talking in the tags goes...I usually try to start off with a ‘hello’ and a ‘thanks for following / writing this starter’, and I also try to add a comment about the muses / what’s going on ic, too, to try to be friendly. ^^ So if I try to strike up a conversation in the tags and there’s nothing but silence in the tags in return...I’m not going to feel too good about interacting with you. ^^;

STARTERS: I prefer plotted starters. That’s because, in theory, if both muns communicate about what sort of starter they want beforehand, then both muns can get a starter that they can enjoy. ^^ That having been said, I’m also willing to do / reply to unplotted starters, continuations from memes / asks, continuations from idles / dash commentary, random starters, etc. I’m fine with writing starters, but since I’m very slow, it can take me a while to write them. As far as starter calls go, I pretty much do a plotted starter call twice a year —– once during winter break ( mid-December ), and once during summer break ( anywhere from mid-June to early September ). I try not to do starter calls during the school year, since I know that I’ll be too busy to write starters quickly. ^^;

INBOX: The inbox is always open, anon is always on, and I occasionally reblog memes. And I do enjoy receiving inbox things ! ^^ But...for your own sake, you might not want to send in random inbox stuff. I’m even slower with replying to inbox things than I am with replying to threads...heck, right now, there’s still stuff in there that’s over a year old. ^^; So, if you want to start an interaction more quickly...I would advise against sending in a random inbox thing. Just write a starter and tag me in it, instead, or something along those lines. ^^ So...I guess drafts take priority over inbox stuff. And ic replies take priority over ooc replies, since people are here for interactions with Katsuie, not me. And like Tsun said, it’s important to remember that Tumblr eats inbox stuff a lot. ^^;

SELECTIVITY: This blog is technically labeled ‘selective’, but...I have a feeling that I’m more selective than what that label might imply. XD To be frank, my ideal rp partner would be a long-term rp partner who writes well, writes mostly multi-para, isn’t involved in drama / cliques / spreading negativity / etc., has at least a rules page, doesn’t smut often, has a muse who I can see potentially having interesting interactions with Katsuie, and has more ic posts than ooc posts on their blog. That having been said, I’m more lax on some of these standards, and I have followed people before who don’t meet these standards. I guess...as of right now, I definitely won’t follow people who don’t have a rules page. I don’t feel comfortable about interacting with someone who could say that I’ve broken ‘rules’ that I don’t even know about. ( This also applies to blogs that have a theme that’s so complex that I can’t even find the links / read the text / scroll down the rules page / etc. ^^; ) And I definitely don’t follow people who I can see are involved in drama / cliques / etc., or who constantly reblog / post negative ooc posts, simply because I don’t want to involve myself in negativity and drama. I tend not to follow people who don’t write multi-para at all, who write smut often, and whose muses I can’t see having any interesting interactions with Katsuie. As for ic posts and ooc posts...if I scroll down the first page of someone’s blog and don’t see any ic posts at all, I tend not to follow. ^^;

This blog is also semi-private. That means that I may choose to interact with blogs that I don’t follow, but mutuals will be given priority when it comes to interactions and stuff.

WISHLIST ITEM: Hmm...deep interactions between muses, I guess ? Like, the kind that change one or both muses’ approach to life, even if it’s only a little bit ? And interactions which help develop relationships between muses, too. It doesn’t have to be in the romantic sense, either. Friends, rivals, mentors, enemies, abusive / toxic relationships, familial relationships...those are all interesting to see. ^^ And, of course, this blog’s wishlist is here. ( Unfortunately, it’s mostly filled with romantically shippy stuff at the moment. Sorry about that. ^^; )

HONEST NOTE: I honestly worry about this blog, sometimes. ^^; There’s hardly anyone left in the Sengoku Basara fandom, so I have to seek out most of Katsuie’s interactions from muses from other fandoms and OCs. It’s difficult enough when you have a muse from such an unknown fandom, but lately, it feels like hardly anyone wants to interact with a blog from an obscure fandom. ^^; And it doesn’t help that, sometimes, every other blog in the Sengoku Basara fandom gets followed back by a blog, except for Katsuie’s blog. It just makes me wonder —– what did I do wrong ? Were my pages too long ? Were my graphics not good enough ? Were there not enough ic posts on this blog at the time ? Did the other mun want to see more threads, or more asks ? Was Katsuie not interesting enough ? Or was his depression / stalking / etc. too problematic ? I don’t know. I’ll probably never know. Even when I ask for advice on what I’m doing wrong ( through the constructive criticism meme and things like that ), I don’t really find any answers. It’s frustrating and disheartening, at times. ^^;

So...I’m really glad that you all are following this blog. ^^ It’s been really fun to have Katsuie interact with some of your muses, and it’s been great to even just see you on the dash. Thank you for giving Katsuie a chance, and I hope to thread with more of you in the future !

Distraction - Katekyo Hitman Reborn - Primo x Haru (HappyFace1886)

Summary: A brief moment of distraction when Giotto gives the boy a few seconds to breathe. Giotto x Haru / G86.  (This was the original sequel to ‘Bargain’ on my blog,  but it wasn't going in the direction I wanted, so that's why I reverted it back into a draft... still, I decided to re-post it because people seemed curious about it... so there we go. xD Sorry it took so long to share again...)

My lack of KHR knowledge might make some things untrue or some characters OOC!

I don't own Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

Please forgive any mistakes, both character-wise and grammatically-wise. I don't have time to re-read or edit things.

---------

“I asked you to help us, not kill us,” Haru narrowed her eyes while she gave a tart scowl at the man standing across from her. Outside the window, she could see Tsuna still collapsed on the ground, his heaving chest being the only indication that he was still alive. However, she didn’t have to be up close and in person to see that he was worn down to the bone. She’d seen the hell he’d been going through the past few days.

Tall and imposing, Giotto tilted his head with faint interest at her words. His face was impassive as usual, but the faint glimmer of amusement in his eyes belied his true feelings. “You find my training inadequate?”

“I’m just saying,” she said while crossing her arms, “the others are doing fine without the Spartan training you’re giving Tsuna-san. He’ll die before he even has a chance to use whatever abilities that you’re giving him.”

“The boy will be fine,” Giotto said with a careless shrug. “In fact, I believe I’ve been more than generous with the amount of time I’ve given him to rest.”

Haru gawked at him. “B-But it hasn’t even been five minutes.”

“No enemy will give him the time to recover,” he simply responded, an icy glint forming in his features that told Haru of how experience and inhuman intuition was what led him in his decisions. “As the leader of the Vongola, he should understand this. If he wants to survive, then he’ll force himself to rise to the occasion.”

“At least give him another minute,” she protested, quickly glancing to see how Tsuna was fairing. To her relief, not to mention the tightening feeling around her chest, Kyoko-chan had noticed Tsuna’s plight and was currently outside with a glass of water for him. “I-I mean, we’re not done here just yet!”

Giotto, who had been about to turn to the direction where he’d left the brat, paused and turned fully towards Haru. The young woman stiffened, but didn’t waver, looking him straight into his eyes. He almost smiled at her bravado. Instead, he sauntered carefully towards her, his steps deliberately echoing within the small kitchen of one of the Vongola’s hidden safe houses.

Haru resisted the urge to step away. Last time she’d done that when they were in the past, it’d given him the opportunity to have her pinned against the wall. She refused to give him that advantage again. Instead, she lifted her chin proudly, the petulant scowl still lingering on her face. Internally, she trembled under those piercing eyes.

It almost felt as though he could see right inside of her mind. That knowing smirk as he unraveled her thoughts piece by piece.

He stopped right in front of her and though he wasn’t even doing anything, she could feel the very power emanating off of him. A shiver threatened to erupt from her shoulders and down her spine. Dangerous. Even without knowing his history, every pore in her body was warning her that this man was dangerous.

“Well?” he murmured gently. “What more do you have to say?”

From behind Giotto, Haru could see the gentle smile on Kyoko’s face. Tsuna’s back faced her, but she knew there was probably a look of endearment on his face as well. She needed... She needed to give them more time, give Tsuna-san a chance to rest a bit longer. Distracted, she didn’t notice how Giotto had raised his hand, caressing her cheek with the back of his knuckles. Her eyes snapped back towards him and she almost gasped at how close he was. She could practically see the one gradient of his mesmerizing two-toned eyes and found the words stuck in her throat.

“What are you thinking of?” his breath brushed against her lips and honestly speaking, Haru was blanking out at the moment. All thoughts had escaped from her mind the moment she’d realized she’d given him the opportunity to enter her personal space.

“I-I...” she stammered out. What was he doing?

Giotto watched with half-lidded eyes at how her cheeks seemed to instinctively flush under his touch while her eyes fluttered about, looking everywhere but at him. It was such a pleasing look that he couldn’t help but lean closer, indulging himself with her addictive scent, and to his delight, she was too flustered by the situation to shove him away when he buried his face into the side of her hair.

Haru felt his hand cupping the side of her face, keeping her still while he nuzzled into her hair. She could hear a faint rumbling from his chest, a sound of contentment, and didn’t even notice how his other hand had settled on her waist, his thumb rubbing circles around the smooth jutting hipbone. Her eyes were still gazing at where Tsuna-san and Kyoko-chan were, but her mind was no longer processing it. Instead, all she could think of was the feeling of Giotto slowly pulling her closer to him, pressing her gently against his chest while his hand trailed up from the side of her face and into her hair.

His fingers entangled themselves within the short brown locks and he tugged at them gently, encouraging her to tilt her head so that he could lay a feather-light kiss on her ear. There was a muffled squeak and Giotto chuckled, the light timbre of his voice causing a faint shudder to run through her.

Giotto’s eyes darkened at how responsive she was to his touch, how she seemed so receptive when he’d done nothing but hold her against him. He pulled back slightly to gaze at her face and felt his self-control straining when he saw the dazed look along with her flushed cheeks as she panted slightly at her body seemed to come alive under his caresses.

He leaned closer to her, feeling her breath brushing against his lips. So tempting and so close. He wanted to sample the taste of her mouth, to feel her writhing beneath him while he caused her to cry out his name in desperation. What would she look like when she fell apart in his arms? Would she fight him for dominance? Try to rule over him in bed just as she sassed him out in the open? Or would she beg for more, pleading for his mercy while he worshipped and teased her glorious, lithe body?

His breath felt so hot against her lips and something inside of her was tugging at her to lean closer, to feel his mouth against her own. The way he looked at her was forcing her to feel things she didn’t know how to interpret. Haru was no stranger to crushes and the occasional physical attraction, but this was on a whole other level. She leaned into his touch, unsure of what it was that made her this way, but it felt so right and so comfortable.

So tempting and so close.

“Five minutes,” he whispered and it took Haru a moment to understand what he was saying. Giotto was so close to her that she could practically feel the soft air brushing against her with each word that he spoke. “I’m sure the boy has also recovered after meeting Kyoko-san.”

The name snapped Haru out of it and she stiffened, struggling to break away from his hold in order to create some distance between them.

What had she been thinking?

And why hadn’t she fought harder against it?

Giotto held her steady, his hand still around her waist while the other remained lost within the locks of her soft brown hair. He could practically feel her temper flaring against and instead forced her to tilt her head to the side again. A smile played on his lips as he whispered heatedly into the ear. “I accept your terms.”

“W-What?” her eyes widened, unable to comprehend what he was saying. Not to mention, the feel of his breath against her ear made her squirm, her lower stomach clenching at how his voice seemed to stroke her sensitive ear.

“After each session, the boy will get his break,” Giotto continued softly and enjoyed how she shuddered when he spoke, “but how long will depend on how successful you are in distracting me.”

AN: As promised, I am filling my tumblr with incompleted work or ideas that I worked on, but will never be able to finish. To those new to me, I am a small fanfic writer for a number of fandoms. The links to my blog are on the side for those interested! :) It’s nice to meet you all! Forgive any oddness that occurs on this tumblr as I’m unfamiliar with this place, haha.

~Follow Forever/Appreciation Post~

❀ Yooo I was bad and didn’t actually do anything at 500, so here I am at 550 instead!

I figured it’s time to show some positivity/shout outs for my great mutuals, and everyone I interact with! Before I start the (very) long list, I’d just like to say thanks to everyone who follows this blog and puts up with my constant inactivity, lots of OOC, tons of incoherencies, and then of course the RPing on this blog!

I’ve truly enjoyed running this blog, even despite my anxiety and constant mood jumps that have come with it. I’ve truly enjoyed meeting people through this, even if I no longer talk with them or they have left tumblr. I love being able to talk with those that I’ve met and interacted with though, and you’ve all no doubt had huge impacts on me that I will forever be grateful for! I honestly have no clue where I’d be without you all. While I still am struggling a bit with a few things, everyone that I talk with is helpful and supportive which honestly is so kind??? This blog and those I’ve met through it have helped me through when I’ve been feeling down and feeling awful, and I can’t say how thankful I am for it.

[nationalcityy-a]

I haven’t did one of these in a really long time, and the last time I did, I bailed on writing anything nice because I suck at that, but seeing as I’ve reached 413 400 followers, I figured I’d have to woman up and get cracking because you’re all wonderfully awesome!

Thank you all so much, I’ve found such a safe haven on this blog, and couldn’t find a more awesome and chill community. I’ve loved every second of exploring Kara and having her interact with everyone and working those relationships. You’re all just so fantastic for letting me write with you, honestly.

So, without further adieu…

THE FAMILY

@e1mayarah: Kristen! Hey, hi, hello. I honestly don’t even know where to start with you? Oops, I suck? Well, I guess I can start by saying, thank you? I mean, not only are you a fantastic writer, Mon-El, fangirl, but you’re like, my best friend on here. We legitimately talk all the time about head cannons, and sads and our kids. Who by the way, I love together. I truly believe we make them bounce off of each other well, and ugh presh <3 But I like how it’s kinda gone beyond that and we talk about ourselves. You’ve made it so easy for me to just be able to hop into your IMs and we can just have hours upon hours of conversation without ever really running out of anything to say. And I love it! I couldn’t actually imagine by rping experience without you now. We’re like, the dynamic duo. The package deal. the two amigos. And.. I’ve rambled too long, but you catch my drift. I love you lots, lots lots and yeah. Just you keep being awesome and so incredibly talented and hitting me up with them feels.

@atomiism: Hey husband ;) How does one talk about how amazingly perfect you are? Because I sure as hell don’t know where to start… You are flawless, bae. And honestly, who in the world would have ever looked at Kara Danvers and Ray Palmer and say, “squish ‘em together, they’re cute af.” But somehow, it happened and now we couldn’t even picture Ray not being there with us and loving on Kara like the presh little pups that they are. And you? You are amazing, and so kind, and sweet and the best ever ever. Honestly, I love when we talk OOC because it’s so easy and fluid. And chill. I love you so much.

@mockingxcanary: Hey Wife ;) Lemme just start by saying, my Kara is so in love with your Sara she as well just walk around after her like a lost puppy because that’s what she’s like whenever she’s around. She just can’t help herself. You are such a talented writer and portray Sara so well that most of the time, I’m just casually hearing Caity’s voice in my head, and it’s not even phasing me. It’s like second nature at this point. You are fabulous! Not to mention I love how we basically go full goo-goo eyes over our girls in the IMs like it ain’t even nothing. I love love love you, bae.

@biologicalengineer: Hey my sister from another mister. I’m sorry, that was lame, but there’s a reason I muse Kara.. Lemme just start by saying I love ya?? And I love your Alex. She is beyond flawless, and you have her down to a Tee. It’s literally incredible how much you get her. And let’s not forget your dash commentary, because I live for that when it pops up because it has me in stitches every time. I mean, I love our OOC convos and head cannons and crying over the Danvers Sisters because we just love them so much. We’re basically sisters at this point with the amount of crap we talk, honestly. But seriously, I am so blessed to have found the perfect Alex to my Kara <3

THE FRIENDS

@bethewhitecanary: Girl, I don’t even know where to begin with you, but honestly, I think it should begin with how much I love you? Your Sara is legit crazy in terms of being in character, and I adore her. As does Kara xD I am so lucky to have found you on here because you’re just so easy to get along with OOC and your talent is off the charts. Ily

@pyrofriend: Ugh. I love you. Like I seriously love you. And I love Mick. Kara loves Mick, but ssh that’s a secret. I love all of our interactions whether it be on the dash or in the IMs. Mick’s flirty banter is just something that makes my day so much brighter, even though he legit tortures Kara. Just you keep being you, because you are awesome. 

@winndowsvista: Hey Kattiiiie!! Okay, I legit love Winn. Like I love him so much it makes my heart hurt. He is just a lil babe and so pure, and his and Kara’s friendship is so so cute and refreshing, and I am relived that we can give the Superfriends more justice than the show is right now. 

@likeaguardianangel: Hey honey! Barry is precious, you are precious, and our superflash babies are precious. You are such a fantastic writer, and I enjoy everything you post. Barry is so in character it is insane, insane. And I can’t wait to get to do more threads with you!

THE PEOPLE OF NATIONAL CITY

Y’all are fantastic, seriously, I am so honoured to be following and roleplaying with you. And even if we don’t, just know I think you’re all fantastic!!

Four-Eyes - Chapter 2: Making Friends

(A/N: hiiii it’s been a while since I wrote for bnha, but don’t worry! Im back... for now. Muahahahahahahaha!! but yea, here’s the next chpt and I hope you guys enjoy! there was some interest in this series, and I’m hoping to take it far!)

But seriously now that I think about it, I haven’t done this shit in a LONG time. Some characters may be a bit ooc... sorry

So this chapter is basically just Ayame being completely awkward for a whole day.... she’s kinda like me in that regard XD

Finding the classroom was easy enough. Selecting a seat was easy enough. Waiting for the teacher and potentially late classmates was easy enough.

What wasn’t easy was the vigorous amount of questioning from her new seat mate.

“Hey, hey, why do your eyes change color? Is it your Quirk? What is your Quirk? I’m Hado Nejire, by the way. What’s your name?”

“Sasaki Ayame. As for my eyes-“

“Hey, hey, have you heard from the upperclassmen about our teacher?” the blue-haired girl continued to ramble, question after question, not seeming to care that Ayame didn’t respond to all of them.

She liked this girl.

Not many people were willing to voice their thoughts out loud, especially those that seem obvious. Asking questions was a healthy part of development- not just for children, but for growing adults to push back against ignorance and sheer stupidity.

“So, Ayame, what school did you come from?” her newfound companion asked her, head tilted to the side. “I don’t think I saw you in my junior high school.”

She hummed. “I didn’t attend any school. I was educated at home.”

Nejire whistled. “Home-school? What’s that like?”

“Convenient,” she said simply, counting down the seconds until class started. “If I wanted to be anything other than a hero, I probably would’ve kept going with it.”

Nejire opened her mouth to ask yet another question, only for the bell to ring at exactly 8:25 AM.

Right on time, Ayame thought, just as the door began to slide open. Instantly, a tall, buff man with silver hair and a bright red-and-silver costume barged into the room, yelling for the students to sit the hell down and pay attention, dammit!

She studied him. Vlad King. Pro hero. 194 centimeters. Quirk: Blood Control- it allowed him to freely manipulate and control all possible factors of his blood.

He began to take roll. Students raised their hands and announced their presence when their respective name was called. Except the indigo-haired boy who sat in the corner, Amajiki Tamaki, who nearly fled the room when his name was called.

“Hado Nejire!”

“Present!” she chirped, hand raised high. “Hey, hey! Teacher, why are your-“

“Kuronawa Hikari!” he barked, completely ignoring the question.

Nejire sulked. Ayame stifled a laugh.

As he continued to take roll, certain names and Quirks stood out from the others. The aforementioned Kuronawa Hikari, for one thing: midnight black hair, sunlight-yellow eyes, skin like the Milky Way Galaxy, and Quirk: Yin and Yang; it gave the user to absorb all forms of light and convert it to powerful energy, while also allowing herself to turn her entire body into light waves and/or pure darkness. It was a Quirk with lots of potential.

Even the Amajiki boy was interesting. Despite his easily exploitable shy personality, she could tell that he had lots of hidden talent. He was one to monitor.

“Togata Mirio!”

Silence. Ayame sweatdropped. In the corner, Amajiki covered his eyes and whispered a mournful “No...”

Vlad King grumbled. “Togata Mirio! You better be in here in three... two... one-!”

“Here!” a voice called out by the door. All eyes locked on it.

For a moment, nothing happened. Then, in the blink of an eye, a blond-haired boy seemingly phased through the wall, landing on his butt...

Literally. His entire body was naked.

Togata Mirio. Age: 15. Quirk: Permeation- it allowed him to phase through everything, including air and light, in exchange for losing his senses. A truly difficult Quirk to master.

She’d keep an eye on him.

The class was silent. Then one boy cried out, “Oh no! It’s Lucas!”

Everyone burst into laughter, even the naked boy, who scrambled to cover himself with his hands while simultaneously attempting to get his clothes and backpack. Ayame rolled her eyes, but the tiny smile on her face was unmistakeable.

Togata finally managed to grab a seat with his pants on, right in front of Amajiki, who leaned over to whisper something in his ear. The blond burst out in laughter, much to the chagrin of his friend and the annoyance of the teacher.

Names came and went; it took about 13.49 seconds to reach the last name: “Yamamoto Fudo!”

Silence.

Vlad King grumbled. “Yamamoto Fudo! I swear to-“

“What do you want?” a boy snapped. The voice came from the middle of the class, and all heads snapped to find the source.

182 centimeters. Charcoal hair, glowing red eyes, obsidian skin with small lava-like lines running up and down his body. Quirk: Volcano; a fire-based Quirk that allowed the user to manipulate fire and lava in any realistic shape and form, as well as being able to control the density and flow of the fire, at the cost of potentially overheating or literally burning himself up. A truly high-cost, high-reward Quirk.

It could also explain his seemingly volatile personality. Ayame decided she would avoid him.

Vlad rolled his eyes. “So now you decide to make an appearance.”

Yamamoto huffed. “Whatever.”

With a grunt, the teacher closed his notebook. “Well, here we go. Another batch of newbies to train. Better not slack off, now! I wanna see each and every one of you give their 110 percent. Plus Ultra!”

“Plus Ultra!” everyone cheered.

Is this what students do to motivate themselves? Ayame wondered. Scream out a bunch of vague motivational words that in their basic form, have no relative meaning whatsoever?

“Now head to the gymnasium! It’s time for orientation!”

More loud cheers as her classmates dashed out of their seats.

“Hey, hey, Ayame! Why are you sitting down? Let’s go together! Maybe we can find my friend Yuyu, she and I were friends in our old middle school-“ Nejire grabbed Ayame’s hand and practically dragged her out of the classroom, towards the gym, rattling on about her friendship with Yuyu and what they could possibly hear during the orientation, asking rhetorical questions about the principal and his Quirk.

“Friendship is something that takes time, but is just as abundant as humor.”

In such a short amount of time, Ayame couldn’t help but wonder if she had managed to make a friend.
