#or any number of hot anime boys XD

[blushblushbear]

so I'm gonna try and finally write some scripts for my other fan boys that I've been sitting on for a bit, but thinking about more boys, it got me curious--

what kinda dude do you wish was in the game?? like an archetype, either of a romantic character or just a character in general??

[tarenitdown]

Okay, uh, multiple questions...

1. Favorite member of recreyo in general? How about to write?

2. Any stray au ideas?

3. Uuuh shoot those arent multiple- just say anything you want about them, even a hot take.

1- Den is my number one member, hands down. I actually found out about Recreyo through her, so I have a lot of bias considering she was one of my favorites during that whole animation story-time era of Youtube...

That being said, though, my favorite to write is still Christian. He just has the most lore to work with, and I really adore writing his dialogue, especially when he's interacting with Ivan. I doubt that that's surprising. xD

However, Kristine is growing on me a lot more as time goes on. In the past I hadn't exactly gotten her characterization down yet, so I found her a little difficult and messy, but I'm definitely starting to get a feel for it now.

2- Oh boy... too many. Although I'm trying to stay focused on the SPY AU, my mind wanders and I ended up with a slowly-developing Ghost AU.

TW: Animal Death

It'd center around Kristine as a (mostly) well-meaning urban explorer, who accidentally stumbles upon a trail of dead animals in the forest. Strangely enough, all of the animals are drained of their blood with barely any exterior wounds, and this is what gets Kristine's curiosity.

Following the path of death, Kristine finds an abandoned tower with boarded up doors and windows... it's eerie, but she takes out a camera and snaps photos of the tower from the outside. After all, she's not sure if she wants to go in quite yet.

But as she walks around, capturing the scenes of fallen trees and graffiti...

The air gets hot. It's like she can't breathe, tugging on her shirt collar.

She drops the camera when she sees a ghostly body floating in front of her. This is where she meets Christian, a boy who looks just about the same age as her, but his skin looks drippy. As though he was sweating, or almost melting.

He greets her cheerfully, if not a bit apprehensive. The two hit it off immediately, with Kristine listening to Christian's rambles of how he hated the scenery. She asks him about his ghost-situation, and he doesn't answer.

Instead, he calls out "Curt! Ivan!" and two more boys show up. They phase through the tower's walls.

Curt has tears running down his face, even though he doesn't appear necessarily sad. He's actually very polite, and tells Christian off for talking to a real person, with it being "dangerous."

Ivan's eyes are pitch black, but the main feature Kristine notices is actually how he's reflective- almost like glass. He doesn't seem to care at all about Christian and Curt's bickering, but he keeps his distance away from the explorer.

"How are you guys all.. dead? Er- ghosts-?" Again, Kristine asks. Nobody gives a solid answer, and Ivan only stammers stupid excuses.

Then, they all go silent. That's when Kristine turns around to see the last ghost: Den.

Just like the other three, Den has a slightly altered design. Her face is flushed, and she has to wipe her mouth every few minutes due to stray drool.

Kristine finds out that Den is the one who had been killing all the animals and draining them of their blood. She apparently has an endless thirst for blood, and she complains that Christian is only making it worse by being present.

Kristine: ..Oh, is.. is he doing that? That explains the temperature.

...And thats pretty much all I have right now. There's no real plot I have written beyond just characterizations. I had the vague idea of Chilly being an angry spirit and being the antagonist herself.

And for the deaths?

Christian died from burning alive (which is why he makes areas warmer/is melting),

Den died of dehydration after getting lost during a trip (she has a specific thirst for blood due to a small blame on others for her death),

Ivan got stabbed with glass (I don't know the backstory for this, it might change honestly),

..Curt doesn't remember his death at all. I imagine he died in his sleep because of unexplained illnesses or something.

Maybe I'll write a two-parter for this AU. I enjoy that it'd definitely take a more genuine approach to the group dynamic.

3- A hot take? Hmmm.. I imagine that this fandom isn't even big enough for takes to be controversial... but I'll say that Ivan and Den's dynamic often goes unexplored/forgotten about, despite how iconic it is.

And that's a shame, really. Ivan/Christian is my favorite duo dynamic, but it honestly parallels (and even takes after) Ivan/Den.

With the shared blame on Ivan for their own individual grudges (Barney's death, Shadypaws' endangerment/Den's framing in the AA case) it also opens up the door for a Den/Christian duo too.

A lot of people like to portray Den as someone villainous, but Ivan is the exact same. Their misdeeds are just in two different ways. Den is loud about it, while Ivan has more tact. Even ignoring their history, just the personalities are enough to get me so invested.

And don't get me started on how they both had incredible duos with Chilly. Because there it is again- another layer to the group dynamic that shifts relationships ever-so-slightly but still with so much impact.

It's so much more than just "Haha knife girl go brrr @ loser boy." As funny as it is, I really think that the two have a charming rivalry while still maintaining that level of "I might not like you all that much, but if you're all I've got, then I guess we're family."

(This was just a bunch of word vomit, I dunno if this is all readable... thank you for the ask.)

The RotBTD+ Gang Plays DnD! (Feat. my ships, sorry not sorry XD)

So highkey I’ve actually been wanting to do a “The Gang Plays DnD” type post for AGES now, but then I saw @hobie-brown and @ohlooksheswriting-wips do DnD AU posts for RotBTD, and then I was like “Ah shit, I really should finish mine, eh?” So thank you to both of you for inspiring me to get off my ass and actually write the post!!!

Hiccup DMs. He comes up with this super complex plot revolving around dragons (because of course) where the party has to dismantle this society ruled by evil knights who want to genocide all of the dragons. Imagine his chagrin when the party wants to do nothing but fuck around in towns and aggravate NPCs 90% of the time.

They usually end up playing at Jack’s apartment, mainly because Hiccup’s dad doesn’t really want a bunch of loud nerds yelling about 20-sided dice in his household while he’s trying to work, if he can at all help it. Jack’s sister regularly barges into their living room and roasts the fuck out of Jack and his friends for being such damn nerds and eats all of their DnD snacks they’ve set out. If they’re in the middle of a combat session, she always gleefully proclaims that they’re all going to die. While Jack is annoyed by this, the rest of the party finds it deeply hilarious.

Jack Overland plays the absolute mayhem warlock Jack Frost, who got his powers through making a deal with the archfey Prince of Frost and has absolutely no qualms about being an evil god’s mortal Sower of Chaos. He spends the vast majority of the campaign doing such useful things as creating ice slicks under annoying NPCs and freezing people’s drinks. He also plays a Tiefling because absolutely no one can talk this boy out of playing the creepy demon race.

Rapunzel plays a woodland nymph druid who is also the party healer (because of course she is). Her name is probably Sunlily or something else suitably hippie-esque. Whenever there’s downtime (or whenever the rest of the party is also dicking around, and she can get away with it), Rapunzel likes to go into the nearest forest and pick the best berries and nuts for the rest of the party. She also loves baking fruit pies and cooking the best nymph food for her companions when given the chance. Definitely the party Cinnamon Roll (every party has one!). She often will turn into cute animals to distract the guards while the party infiltrates a building.

Merida’s character is the party archer and general ranged weapon master, as well as a raging lesbian. Hiccup learns very quickly that any male NPC who tries to flirt with her will very quickly get impaled with an arrow. She can’t ever decide if she wants to be a ranger or a rogue, so she multiclasses in both for flare. She also plays a Tiefling, and continually insists that her character is both scarier and sexier than Jack’s. In combat, she either Leeroy Jenkins her way in with a sword and just starts slashing every which way, or just shoots 90% of the enemies with arrows before the fight even starts. There’s really no in between. She can get away with this because she’s highkey one of the party tanks, and consistently deals a shitton of damage.

Anna plays a human bard, basically having read over the class options and going “Wait, in this one I get to make stylish medieval music??? And wear dramatic and garish outfits and a dumb hat??? And cast wacky illusion spells??? And do silly little magic tricks??? And INSPIRE EVERYONE??? Hell yeah, I’m in!!!” She mostly uses magic attacks in combat (definitely favors Tasha’s Hideous Laughter), but occasionally when she’s out of spell slots she’ll just take to slamming enemies in the face with her lute. She also has WAY too much fun with Vicious Mockery, let’s be real.

Elsa, upon hearing Jack’s character concept, rolls her eyes so far up in her head she can see her damn brain, and vows to play his concept, but serious–solely out of spite. She rolls up a super OP elf Chaos Sorcerer, filled with lots of brooding angst about how uncontrollable her winter powers can get if she isn’t careful. She combines it a bit with Storm Sorcerer so she can create literal blizzards, and Hiccup ends up allowing it just because he thinks it’s cool. Although Elsa’s character is undoubtedly aggravated by the rest of the party’s antics, she starts becoming grudgingly protective of these idiots and can deal some pretty crazy damage when her companions are threatened. She also contains one of the party’s only brain cells.

Eugene of course plays dashing rogue master thief Flynn Rider. Although his high deception and lockpicking skills certainly come in handy, he’s the most chaotic neutral fucker you’ve ever met and will take any excuse to rob NPCs blind or cheat them out of every cent they have in a tavern card game. It’s nigh impossible to get him to cooperate with the rest of the party much of the time, and often Elsa’s character has to either bribe him with some of her family’s gold or threaten to freeze him to stop him backstabbing one or more party members. Eugene’s character forces Hiccup to add in many more heist plotlines than he originally intended. This delights Eugene immensely, and sometimes he goes a bit crazy planning elaborate heists.

Moana plays a sorcerer water genasi. She can control any body of water, but she has a special affinity for controlling saltwater (i.e. the ocean lol). She also requests an animal handling bonus, but only with marine animals, solely because she thought it would be funny. She’s also an ex-pirate who robbed a lot of wealthy merchant ships and freed their slaves back in the day, which Merida thinks is incredibly badass. Moana tends to get bored and unengaged when there are no bodies of water to play around with, so Hiccup ends up having to add a lot more lakes, rivers, and oceans to the campaign than he originally planned on. Moana also takes a sailing skill, and thus the party often ends up traveling by boat. Typically Eugene and Rapunzel will infiltrate and hijack it, and Moana will sail it. Moana probably contains the party’s only other brain cell.

Astrid plays a gigantic berserker orc barbarian who is never without his trusty axe. Astrid is hands down the party’s top tank, and unquestionably deals the most damage every combat session. Much like Merida’s character, Astrid’s character is absolutely a shameless power fantasy. Hiccup pretty easily picks up on this, but is too polite to say anything about it. Jack also picks up on this, but is hardly as courteous as their DM, and teases Astrid mercilessly. Astrid is not amused.

Rapunzel requests that her weapon of choice be a frying pan, her justification being that her character found a discarded one at the edge of a human village outside her woods and mistaked it for a highly-dangerous human weapon. Hiccup is like “…you know what? Fuck it” and rolls up stats for a goddamn frying pan. Jack has nigh-endless admiration for Rapunzel for choosing such a goddamn memey, absurd, yet oddly effective weapon and it definitely makes the poor boy even more smitten with her than he already is.

Eugene and Merida have a bet going on who can sleep with more sexy barmaids. Merida is currently winning, much to Eugene’s chagrin. She’s not even inherently better at seducing NPCs, she and Eugene have the same charisma stat–she just consistently rolls better than Eugene. Eugene is incredibly salty about this.

Anna and Elsa want to be sisters in-game as well, but neither want to change their race–so Anna decides her character was adopted. Hiccup and the rest of the party go along with it, mainly because there’s something deeply hilarious about a regular human bard being adopted and raised by a family of high-powered elf ice mages.

Astrid is absolutely the sort of player who tends to get bored and restless outside of fights, and tends to fidget and twiddle her thumbs waiting for the next combat session. Jack picks up on this, and purposely does more roleplay for longer just to piss her off. He’s also just a very dramatic fucker and highkey loves roleplay.

When she’s not causing mayhem around the town or sleeping with hot women, Merida tries to entertain Astrid between combat sessions by offering to spar with her. Unfortunately, this does not usually end well for poor Merida, as even the most hardcore and badass of tieflings is prone to getting dumpstered by an 8-foot-tall barbarian orc with an axe. Astrid is, nonetheless, grateful to have someone to fight.

Rapunzel, Elsa, and Moana will humor Hiccup and attempt to actually play the main plot. Meanwhile, Jack, Merida, and Eugene are a DM’s worst nightmare. They constantly derail the damn campaign to fuck around, cause mayhem, and do inane shenanigans in every. Damn. Town. They go to. Anna is kind of a wildcard–she’ll typically go with whatever group looks like they’re going to be doing something more interesting. Astrid will go along with whichever group is more likely to get into a fight–which, often as not, is Jack and his posse of terrible Chaotic Neutrals (who have definitely pissed off a number of NPCs into attacking them).

As the campaign goes on, Elsa and Eugene become the beleaguered Party Mom and Dad. Both are quite aggravated by this–especially poor Eugene, who just wanted to play a morally-gray charming rogue who stole everything and got away with it and then accidentally ended up caring about these idiots he got stuck with.

Anna initially joins the campaign because she has a planet-size crush on Hiccup, and inevitably is the one who dragged Elsa into it too. Being the hopeless romantic that she is, Anna writes a love interest into her backstory. Hiccup eventually has the party run into said love interest, and Anna is overjoyed. He starts flirting with her as the love interest, and it’s easily the best 30 minutes of Anna’s life.

Moana and Elsa also give Hiccup pretty detailed backstories, and he works in little subplots for them. Moana gets to bring water back to a dying part of the jungle in the middle of a draught, while Elsa gets to go on a whole sidequest to explore her family history and how they came to be sorcerers.

Jack, Merida, and Eugene also give Hiccup fairly elaborate backstories, but Jack’s and Merida’s are like 99% memes and Dumb Shit. Hiccup tries to give all of them backstory-related plot hooks, but inevitably any hooks he provides are either stabbed, robbed, or frozen. Honestly any plot hook offered to these 3 will be all but spat in the face of and tossed off a cliff.

The one relevant part of Eugene’s backstory is that he and Rapunzel decide they used to be partners in crime before the campaign started. Rapunzel would infiltrate and scout out places he wanted to rob as small, unobtrusive animals (her preferred Wild Shape is a chameleon) and later distract the guards as a bunny or kitten while he went in and took every gold coin in sight. In return, Flynn Rider would bribe builders to not develop into Sunlily’s forest. Rapunzel and Eugene partly came up with this For Funsies, but also it was Rapunzel’s sneaky way of tricking Eugene into having prior connections in the party so he’d be less likely to betray them. It works pretty well–although the entire party is protective of Cinnamon Roll Sunlily, Flynn is certainly especially protective of her.

Astrid does the absolute bare minimum as far as backstories go. She is literally just here to smash stuff, slice people, and beat some fuckers up.

Rapunzel has a backstory, but she’s typically so invested in the main plot and the other party members that Hiccup rarely needs to bring it in to keep her engaged. She’s highkey the party emotional rock, and probably the only one keeping them all together.

On that note, Rapunzel’s character is the ONLY one who can get Jack’s character to take the plot even REMOTELY seriously. Like he’ll be dicking around in the nearest tavern challenging the nearest orc to a drinking game, and Rapunzel will come in and ask him to help them on a Main Plot Quest. And he’ll be like “come onnnnn I’m having funnn” and she’ll be like “Jack pleeeeeease?��� and you just. Can’t resist Sunlily’s puppy dog eyes. At all. Also, whenever Sunlily is genuinely threatened, any silliness immediately goes out the window and Jack Frost is OUT FOR BLOOD.

For better or for worse, Rapunzel is not immune to being looped into Jack’s shenanigans. Occasionally if either Merida or Eugene have a particularly hare-brained scheme she’ll go along with it, but by and large Jack is the most successful in convincing her to temporarily abandon the plot and cause mild mischief with him. They once wasted half a session creating an elaborate “ice theme park” for some squirrels in the forest.

Hiccup tries to get Merida to play the main plot by eventually having there be no more sexy female NPCs to seduce in the towns they go to. Unfortunately, this backfires–Merida just hooks up with Moana’s character instead. When asked to roll for how good the lay is, Merida gets a nat 20–and thus her character and Moana’s character end up hooking up regularly throughout the rest of the campaign.

Hiccup introduces a few Wise Old Mentor-type NPCs to guide the party throughout the campaign. While Rapunzel, Elsa, Moana, and Anna actually try to listen to them and take their advice, Merida, Jack, and Eugene absolutely refuse to take them seriously and mercilessly play pranks on them.

At one point, Hiccup gives the party the option to attempt to tame a group of wild dragons and use them as mounts. They all have to make animal handling checks. Anna, Rapunzel, Elsa, and Moana pass. The rest of the party fails, with Jack and Eugene crit-failing. Hilarity ensues.

Hiccup ends up bringing back Anna’s backstory love interest as an NPC regular. Anna thinks he’s just being a good friend and a good DM and trying to incorporate her backstory as much as he can, but really, he just wants an excuse to regularly flirt with her. He hardly has the balls to out-of-game.

Merida comes out as gay toward the end of the campaign. Everyone in the group is extremely supportive, of course, but everyone is also like “Merida…with the amount of barmaids you’ve banged…and the amount of times you and Moana’s character hooked up…this isn’t exactly surprising.”

Hiccup actually finds a way to use Jack and Elsa’s same-concept-opposite-execution characters to the plot’s advantage. He decides one of the main villains will have a prophecy saying he’ll be taken down by a powerful ice mage. The party manages to fool this guy into thinking this ice mage is Jack, and sends Jack to fight him. As soon as the villain sees Jack, he’s like “WHAT??? THIS clown???” (word has absolutely spread throughout the land of Jack not using his ice powers for anything besides mildly annoying trolling). Naturally, the bad guy lets his guard down after thinking he’s going to fight this literal joke, and then Elsa crashes in from the side and absolutely dumpsters him.

Jack tries to defeat the final boss by just annoying him so much that he leaves. Unfortunately, he just annoys him so much that he attacks Rapunzel’s character. Jack’s just like “oh HELL no” and attacks with absolutely nothing held back. Turns out he’s pretty terrifying when he’s not using his magic for Dumb Antics.

During the final boss of the campaign, the Big Bad tries to one-shot Moana’s character, and Merida’s character super theatrically jumps in front of her to take the blow instead. Rapunzel just barely manages to heal Merida’s character, but it’s a really close call. During all this, Merida is like “ah shit...maybe I’m NOT just in this to get fantasy-laid.” After the fight’s over, her and Moana’s characters have a big dramatic love confession and share a Big Damn Kiss in front of everyone. It’s pretty epic.

After the final session of the campaign, Merida drags Moana outside Jack’s apartment and sputters and trips over her words for a solid minute before she finally gets out that through all this nonsense...well...maybe it’s not just in the game that she thinks Moana is hot. Moana just gets this HUGE grin on her face and says “c’mere, Leeroy Jenkins” and just pulls Merida in and kisses her. Cue the rest of the party barging in on them. Merida and Moana freeze, and there’s a moment of terrified silence...and then the entire party starts cheering them on like “took you long enough!”

The entire rest of the party could detect the sexual tension. Literally all of them.

But Eugene is like “HA, THIS MEANS IF WE DO A SEQUEL CAMPAIGN I’M WINNING THAT BET! BECAUSE YOU’RE GONNA BE DATING MO’S CHAR AND THUS NOT ABLE TO SLEEP WITH ANY MORE BARMAIDS!”

By the epilogue session, Jack and Rapunzel are dating. Merida and Moana are also dating. Hiccup and Anna STILL haven’t figured out why they’re so prone to spending half the session flirting when Anna’s love interest shows up, and Hiccup STILL hasn’t figured out why he likes to have Anna’s love interest show up so often. Bless their souls. Maybe they’ll figure it out next campaign...?

Damn I actually really like this...maybe if people like it I’ll do some incorrect quotes or a drabble or something??? Or maybe some HCs from next campaign???

[coffehbeans]

what's your gt hot takes?

OH BOI since you've asked I'm gonna say it now lol

Coffeh's g/t hot takes (which are probably very unpopular opinions)

1. Ok, the first thing I wanna talk about is fearplay, cause I've spent most of the time not truly understanding what it was, but now after catching some meanings I have opinions. So, I agree with what most people say about fluff. A pure fluff g/t story is boring (imo), and to me, what makes g/t interesting is the angst involving the different power dynamics. But there's another side to it too which is the opposite end of the spectrum, the fearplay. So, what I believe some people don't understand is that fearplay accentuates the difference in power between the giant and the tiny a lot. It's great to show jerkish giants and dangerous situations, but if the writer's aim is to make the giant and the tiny to be friends, fearplay shouldn't be treated as casual banter. As I see it, being tossed around against your will, trapped and loomed by a being that's bigger than a freaking building is a traumatizing experience. How will the writer convince me to root for this friendship when the giant likes to assert dominance over the tiny so much? That's not equality, and with inequality, there's no friendship. Sure, no problem in making the giant a jerk at first who changes and learns from it, but if they're not regretting their past actions towards the tiny, how the heck will I be comfortable with this "friendship"? How will I even root for it? I'm not talking about any specific story here, I saw this in a LOT of g/t stories over the years. It's super uncomfortable, and I don't see many people talking about it. I keep hearing about "fearplay is good fearplay is awesome" but is it really? Sure, if you have smth for sub/dom dynamics who am I to judge you, but I don't like it. And the "with consent" fearplay is the worst for me, cause it implicates that the tiny likes to be dominated by a much bigger and superior being than them. It's just a bunch of red flags to me. So, recapping: fearplay is good when used for dangerous situations and by either evil giants or jerk giants, as long as said jerk giant who's supposed to be friends with that tiny learns from it and regrets it. Fearplay accentuates the difference in power between the giant and tiny and feels more of a traumatic experience to the tiny than what the writers make it seem to be.

2. Man-eating giants, oh boy. Okay, this is a plot device to show danger and it can be really good, but, are you WILLING to write about this? I say this as someone who has a story with bloodthirsty giants, and as I was digging deeper into the concept I had to tame it A LOT because it's just too heavy for me to tackle. Keep in mind that in our world, giants that eat people would be basically c*nnibals. Will you be able to handle this subject in your story? I mean, you don't need to focus on it much, it's what I did with my story. But it can't be taken lightly either. I saw some g/t stories over the years that had giants who casually ate people but became friends with a tiny, and it was so weird. I mean, it wasn't tagged as v*re, if you want to write about v*re, just tag it man. But making a friendship between a tiny and a giant who just casually EATS PEOPLE, and they even keep teasing about eating the tiny, please don't do that??? It's a whole 'nother level of "what the f". Pls tag your crap. And if you want to write about man-eating giants, don't normalize it? It's not smth good at all??? It baffles me the number of stories that I found that had this. It's worse than the pet trope.

3. I don't like when the g/t community compares tinies to animals or portrays them as such. Like, when the tiny is portrayed as a poor little fragile being that can do nothing by themselves. I'm not talking about the g/t imagines and the "oh I want to sleep in a pocket" posts ashshsh, I'm just talking about tinies who are characters in a story. This doesn't happen often, but I don't like when tinies are so, infantilized. I think I saw someone talking about this too. When the tiny is treated like a kid, I just don't like it. Tinies can be vulnerable, heck they can be weak, but it's worse when they're treated like little poor kids and animals by the giants. It's just another way to accentuate the difference in power between the tiny and a giant, but in a way that's completely the opposite of fearplay. Giant/tiny friendships are tricky. As I see it, if the power difference barrier isn't surpassed, then it doesn't work. And when the tiny keeps being treated as a little creature that can't do anything by themselves, it just makes the friendship feels unequal. That's how I see it.

4. We need more interaction in this community. A lot of people here are lurkers who don't say a thing and only like the posts. I'm not saying that people should force themselves to interact, that's not it, but because this community is so small, when most people don't interact at all, it becomes kinda dead. I remember when I posted a g/t story once, and I got only likes and basically no comments. I don't wanna sound ungrateful, the likes are amazing! But the lack of comments, the lack of interaction, really diminishes my motivation ngl. And I only say this cause I saw some people saying it too, it happens with other writers. Anyway, what I meant is that you shouldn't force yourself to talk or interact, that's not it, but doing so is very much appreciated and makes this community more fun, since it's such a small community anyway.

There you go anon, these are my hot takes ashuhsuhs They're very bold opinions so I didn't wanna post about it, but since you've asked I couldn't resist lmao. Guys, keep in mind that these are my opinions and u don't have to agree with me xD Take care ^^

A new Legacy Challenge

The Grecian Mythology Legacy Challenge

Synopsis: Before there were what we call the modern gods and goddesses of today from Mount Olympus, or The Olympians, there were those that came before them. Like every story, it has its origins. Gaea, birthed from Chaos, and Ouranus, birthed from Gaea, who then began to create their own legacy. In this Legacy Challenge, you will tell the story of the gods and goddesses from it’s very core to what it is today, from Gaea to Zeus and his many, many children. 

Getting Started/Rules:

 Disclaimer: For the purposes of this challenge,we’re just going to start out with Gaea and Ouranos as there are MANY MANY children born from Chaos and Gaea, followed by Ouranos and Gaea, and that is just too much time and energy spent. CC and Mods are also very much welcomed!

It would very much help to start a New Game, and by creating your sims. They must be married and of the opposite gender. Gaea=Mother Earth and Ouranos=The Father/Starry Sky. They may look however you please, if you have the Expansion Pack Get To Work, they can be aliens, if you have The Game Packs Realm of Magic, Vampires. You are very much welcome to make them into Mages or Vampires, the choice is up to you! If you have seasons you may start in any season you see fit. 

After you are done creating your founders, you MUST move them into Newcrest on the biggest Lot which should be Twin Oracle Point. (It even sounds mythological XD). If you want more of a challenge try living Off-Grid.

You may not have any kind of job as you are just starting out, so in order to make your living wages you may:

Fish

Garden

Paint

Wood Working

Sculpting

And sell Collectibles (anything found)

Generation alpha : The Creation

Gaea, also known as mother earth, very much loved her children, too bad Ouranos didn’t feel the same and locked them all away to never be seen again… supposedly… 

Gaea:

* Career: None

* Aspiration: The Freelance Botanist

* Traits

   * Loves Outdoors

   * Family Oriented

   * Mean

Ouranos/Uranus:

* Career: None

* Aspiration: The Curator Aspiration

* Traits

   *Hates Children

   * Ambitious

   * Perfectionist

Game Play:

All aspirations must be completed before the generation is over

Max out Mischief Skill

Max out Sculpting

Max out Gardening

Max out Herbalism (if Outdoor retreat is owned)

Home/Building:

You must start your build as a single hut and grow from there, limited to garden decor, but not exclusive to plumbing, lighting, and cooking.

Basement must be built… for obvious reasons

Children:

You can have as many children as you’d like but the main focus is Cronos.

Once Cronus is of age, he may start looking for his “Rhea”

Succession:

When Ouranos/Uranus is an elder he must fight with his son Cronos and be banished from the lot. (You can get creative with this or just have him move out)

This will end Generation alpha with Cronus taking over. 

Generation Beta: The Creation 2

Just like his father before him Cronos found out through the prophecies that one of his children will overthrow him and become ruler, Rhea is not pleased by this and devises a plan just like her mother (in law) before her. You may start to have jobs/careers this generation

Cronos:

* Career: Criminal

* Aspiration: Public Enemy

* Traits

   * Hot-Headed

   * Hates Children

   * Glutton

Spouse:

Must Have:

AT LEAST family oriented trait

Game Play:

All Aspirations must be completed before this generation is over

Max out Mischief Skill

Max out Fitness/Wellness

Home/Building:

Keep the basement from the previous generation

You are no longer restricted to just garden decor

No Modern Decor

Children:

Like his father before him, Cronos and Rhea should have Zeus’s siblings first, then Zeus. Have Zeus be sent off to live with some mages (if you have Realm of Magic) or make a foster family. And never have contact with him again until he is a teenager (You may switch back and forth between the households) 

Zeus may start to look for his “Hera” 

Succession: 

Like the previous Generation once Cronos is an old man who fights with his son (teenage) Zeus multiple times. Cronos then dies from exhaustion or anger (you can cheat this) and Zeus takes over. 

This will end generation Beta with Zeus succeeding his Father.

Generation Gamma: A New Age and Ruler

Once Cronos is out of the picture for good, Zeus can marry his beloved sweetheart Hera. But, he can keep his adulterous ways to himself, right... right?

[vdragon-creations]

More Danganronpa Headcanons!

Why? Because I can! And I have to wait for a Commissioner to get back to me about a WIP I just sent!

I Think I’m gunna try my hands at making some Headcanons for Mondo, Ishimaru, Leon, Kazuichi, and Kiibo this time a round! Just cause I wanna try and explore new characters. (And totally not because I fell hard for a certain Robo Boi! WHAAAAAAAT! YOU CRAZY GURL!) I’m still loyal to my man Yasuhiro! But I gotta spred the love! Cause these boi’s need it! Also, wanna mention that these are more like...Non-Killing Game AU Headcanaons. So yeah! ^^ 

Let’s do this!

Mondo:

Is a Semi decent carpenter, but there was that one time he fucked up the legs on a chair, and now one of Asahina’s shorts has a rip in it where there was a stray nail sticking out.

She wont let him live that down. And neither will Sakura.

Get’s pretty embarrassed/pissed off if someone touches his neck! The dude’s jacket practically covers that entire part of his body, so he’s not used to feeling anything touch him there!

He once let out a girlish scream when Leon poked him there once to wake him up during class! The rest of them are surprised Leon wasn’t killed right then and there.

Once he participated in a little competition between the classes to see who was the arm wrestling champ. He got pretty far till he had to go up against Gonta. He lost by a landslide, but he felt better loosing to a dude like him at least. 

Totally escorts any female classmate or student home on his bike if they ask, or he sees some creep hanging around them. 

He does get embarrassed about it though, and ends up yelling at them. This results in one of three things.

The girl runs away!

The girl just politely declines, and walks away kinda creeped out!

Or a mix of all, with the addition of the dude sees this, and get’s spooked himself, and fucks off

Ishimaru:

Has a bit of a panic attack and dies inside if he sees someone leaving the men’s restroom without washing their hands!

Carries scented hand sanitizers with him! At all times! No matter what! And must offer some to every single one of his classmates! 

Once he tripped in the halls while chasing after another rule breaker, and had to be carried to the nurse’s office. Now that alone wouldn’t have been a bad thing, except Sakura was the one who did it, and she carried him bridle style, much to his dismay. 

Mondo and Leon teased him about that one for months.

During Christmas, he’ll start screeching about PDA anytime he sees a Mistletoe, or people under it who are about to kiss! 

But will ultimately be the first one forced to stand underneath it by is classmates.

Stays behind after school hours to either clean, or poke his head into every class room to see if the teachers need help with anything.

He’s totally that guy who during the Gym Class or Sports festival, is bitching about how short the girls shorts are, but not realize he’s staring. There by making HIM the creep! 

Leon of all people was the one to point this out to him, only adding to the shame.

Leon:

It’s not hard for him to start catching feelings for basically any girl meets.

Totally has an Instagram where he posts shirtless pics! He’s pretty popular thanks to that, and his Baseball Skills.

Purposely taught himself English so he could flirt with some of the American and British chicks who visit his profile and leave comments.

He’s pretty used to going from girl to girl, so it’s safe to assume he’s used to getting dunked on by the girls he’s dumped. Getting called a pig, dirty looks, even some of them going so far as to pour their drinks on them at lunch. This he can handle!

Wanted so badly to start a band with Sayaka, Ibuki, Kaede, and Kazuichi! (Probably due to the punk look Soda always puts on!) But he was promptly let down by all of them! Cause Ibuki had her own shit to deal with, Kazuichi because he had no experience with music (at least any good ones, Stay tuned for that! ;3), Sayaka cause she’s already part of a group, and Kaede because punk wasn’t exactly her thing.

But what really stresses him out is when one of his Exes just.....doesn’t really seem to care! It feels so outta place to him, and it actually makes him pretty paranoid. Wondering if their plotting for revenge or some shit! So he’ll spend days after breaking up with a girl like this, just kinda....being a little bitch! XD

Secretly, I’m pretty sure they all turned him down because they thought he was coming on to them to a degree. 

Kazuichi:

Is a lot like Yasuhiro, he doesn’t like birds, but not because he thinks they work for the government. It’s because he doesn’t like most animals, they remind him of Gundham.

Miu makes him HIGHLY uncomfortable! Sure, she’s hot and stuff, but she’s a whole other level of fuckery that he wants no part of! She’s banned from entering his workshop, and so Kiibo is usually the one who comes in to grab something if Miu needs it. He completely get’s Kazuichi feeling put off by Miu.

However, Kazuichi is still pretty insistent on asking Kiibo if he can take him apart every time he comes to get something for Miu. Making the poor robot very uncomfortable!

He’s pretty jealous that Miu get’s to play with the Robot and he doesn’t. Get’s kinda salty about it.

Teruteru once gave him the idea that he should try to serenade Sonia. And so he did! Or at least he tried to. He got over the fence to the girls dorms, ripping his clothes in the prosses. Then when he got to the window (he thought was) of Sonia’s room, he threw a rock that was a bit too big at it, cracking the window and scaring the girl in the room! Waking up the whole dorms and he booked it out of there! 

He attempted this one more time, and was better prepared. But Sonia opened her window to see a Kazuichi dressed in a Ghillie Suit and wearing an army helmet holding a guitar! When he started to sing and play, it was now obvious why Ibuki refuses to let him sing along with any of her music! 

A girl from a neighboring room called the campus security to repot a strange dude outside the Girls dorms, while another one poked her head out of her window and began to throw things at him. 

He left soon after, but was caught by security and reprimanded. Now he refuses to listen to Teruteru has to say about anything.  

Kiibo:

Often get’s bossed around by Mui to get her things. He finds it rather degrading, but when she’s not being bossy, she’s helpful to him. So he puts up with it, as a way of saying thanks. 

One of these tasks he’s asked to do a lot is going over to Kazuichi’s Workshop to barrow tools and such. He hates doing it though, since Kazuichi is always wanting to take him apart. So he does his best to make these visits quick!

Miu gave him the ability to remove some of his heavy armor so he can wear clothing like normal. Surprisingly, This was his idea! He wanted to be able to enjoy the comforts of soft fabrics like most humans. And it would help him blend in a bit better.

Gonta and him get along very well! Mainly due to both of them having a hard time understanding things like sarcasm, harsher jokes, and certain social cues. This usually leads to them both learning at the same time when they hang out!

Miu is his wingman, weather he knows it or not! She’s always wanting to add new functions to him to make him more appealing. One of these is a thin velvet like coating on his armor that’s meant to make his metal less harsh on the skin if you touch him.

Another one of these features is a type of diffuser at the top of his skull under his hair! It releases a pleasant scent into his hair, similar to pheromones. The scent changes based on Kiibo’s emotions. 

Kokichi likes to openly mock Kiibo in front of new people. Like a lot!

Kiibo actually releases steam when he get’s too Angry or Embarrassed, but this is really rare. 

Get’s really curious about Occult, Paranormal, or Religious things. Sure, he finds some of it to be very silly, but he can’t help but wonder why some humans like those things! 

Some holiday traditions he finds weird too, and in some cases, a bit Robophobic. Like giving candy or sweets out on Valentines Day, when....well, he can’t fucking eat it! So he feels excluded in times like that.

He’s really confused about most PDA! Especially kissing! So humans just like...put their mouths together? And that’s like....supposed to mean deep affection? What’s so great about swapping fluids like that? Couldn’t they get sick? QUESTIONS! ANSWERS! HE MUST HAVE THEM!

His Ahoge doesn’t just change shape and move to show emotion, but it also tends to point in the direction that he’s attention is drawn too. Even when he’s trying to pretend he’s not looking at something! His hair is a dead give away!

Has a built in “Cellphone” in his head. Miu added it so it would be easier to contact him if needed. 

Everyone in his class has his number, except Kokichi! And it will stay that way!

.......Until Gonta gave it to him by being tricked into doing it!

And now he has a small panic attack every time his “Cellphone” rings. Praying to all that is good that he doesn’t hear “HEY KIIBOOOOOOOY!~<3″ on the other end!

The Skylark’s Song [2/4]

Fandom: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

Characters: Hibari Kyoya, Kusakabe Tetsuya, Namimori Middle Disciplinary Committee, Fon (mentioned)

Warnings: PTSD, Mild Language, Violence [A/N: Depiction of PTSD may not be accurate. I apologize if this bothers anyone.]

Word Count: 1.7k

Summary: My personal headcanons of the (pre-canon) experiences that made Hibari into the man that he is today. Part Two: the development of his commitment to discipline and explaining his apparent state of constant sleep deprivation. [This may end up being a four-part story, lol. Or a three-part with a small extra... which I guess is also four parts. I hope you enjoy! xD]

[Part 1]

Ever since that night, Hibari had never had a good night's rest.

Other than the week that he'd been in the hospital, woozy from the painkillers that had been constantly fed to him and barely aware of the world around him, he'd never slept for more than a few hours at any given time. At first, the nightmares--the memories--would wake him up in an empty house, screaming for his parents who were no longer there, and then he'd spend the rest of the night huddled in the corner, flinching at every shadow. For a long time, he feared that the men would return, but as time passed uneventfully, he grew more convinced that they didn't care. That they didn't think a mere child could be any danger to them. And they were probably right.

By all rights, he should have probably been taken away and moved to an orphanage, but a distant relative had been found who was willing to become his legal guardian. They'd spoken briefly on the phone, eventually coming to an agreement: since Hibari refused to leave his childhood home and Fon had special circumstances that made traveling and raising a child difficult, a housekeeper would be hired to watch over him, paid out of the fortune that he had inherited from his parents. Initially, she would come early in the morning every day and leave only when he was about to go to bed, but his growing preference for solitude and independence quickly asserted itself, so that she would eventually only come in the afternoon when he was at school, to clean and prepare his meals.

In school, his teachers also noticed a drastic change in his personality. Though he remained a good student, the previously outgoing and energetic child became withdrawn, appearing as though he was actively avoiding his classmates. Any attempts to speak with him outside of his assigned schoolwork were met with a stony wall of silence, and the many phone conversations that they had with his guardian did nothing to improve the situation.

In fact, the only activity in which Hibari demonstrated any initiative of his own was in his new studies of martial arts. Every evening found him at one dojo or another, practicing karate, boxing, kenjutsu, and a number of other combat arts with single-minded focus until he could barely drag himself back home. The physical pain was a welcome distraction, though it was short-lived as his body accustomed itself to the new routine.

His devotion to the arts and strict self-discipline meant that he quickly learned all that the instructors in Namimori could teach him. By the time he started middle school, he was no longer attending the dojos, instead practicing with masters that Fon would occasionally send to him while developing his own style. Hibari also began experimenting with weapons, discarding the sword and spear as impractical to carry and bare fists as too weak, before he eventually settled on his tonfa. The metal was hard enough to be difficult to deform, they were easily concealed, and simply adjusting the force could mean the difference between injury and death.

He still saw his parents every night. But at least he stopped screaming when he woke.

For the most part, his middle school years passed without anything of particular note until his third year, when he joined the disciplinary committee and a group of wannabe punks started to attend. In general, they were harmless, just mimicking the types of idiots that they saw in anime and manga and mouthing off out of the mistaken impression that it made them cool. But it irked Hibari to have to tell them off every morning for their appearances and watch them swagger around like thugs. When they finally started trying to extort their peers, however, he finally had a real excuse to step in.

"Hey, c'mon, you've got cash, right? We just need to borrow a couple thousand. We'll pay you back later, really!"

Hibari had been about to return home when he heard voices coming from behind the gym. If there was a response to Kusakabe, it was too quiet for him to hear, but he hoisted his bookbag higher over his shoulders as he went to investigate. As he turned the corner, the sight before him turned him cold with rage.

Kusakabe and his friends stood in a loose half-circle, a few of them holding wooden swords, leering at the student they had trapped against the wall, a young boy who looked absolutely terrified. His bookbag appeared to have been upended all over the ground, with books and pens scattered everywhere, and Kusakabe knelt before him, his hand outstretched expectantly. One of his friends stretched, cricking his neck threateningly, and noticed the prefect standing there, shaking. He smirked, reaching out to nudge their leader and jerking a thumb toward Hibari when Kusakabe looked up.

"Get rid of him," Kusakabe ordered, and three of his pack peeled away, advancing on Hibari and blocking his view.

"There's nothing to see here, Prefect-san. Get lost, unless you want what he's getting," one of them snapped, and Hibari's eyes fell to the ground as his hands clenched into trembling fists.

"Hey, look at him. You think he's gonna piss himself?" Another one laughed, jabbing his bokken toward Hibari, who took a step back, to more laughter. But in the next instant, Hibari was lunging forward, the gleam of metal in his hands knocking the wood aside and slamming the boy under the chin. Before the other two realized what was happening, they were splayed on the ground, clutching their heads as Hibari stood in front of them, breathing heavily. He staggered slightly, as if he were injured or drunk, as the rest of the gang advanced on him, Kusakabe in the lead, their victim forgotten. They were cautious now, now that they saw he could fight back, and when Hibari's head snapped up, even Kusakube seemed to hesitate. There was a gleam of madness and bloodlust in Hibari's normally flat black eyes, and his stance as he lifted his tonfa in front of his body telegraphed experience.

Even so, they couldn't back down, not from a fight that they had picked, so they approached the older boy carefully, trying to spread out to encircle him. He didn't make any move to stop them from doing so, just standing with an air of watchful patience, like a predator waiting to pounce. The fact that he was outnumbered didn't seem to bother him at all, and he kept his eyes fixed on Kusakabe. His unwavering gaze seemed to make the younger boy hesitate, but at the same time, foolish pride urged the delinquent forward.

"Get him."

After a heartbeat of uncertainty, they rushed in wildly, fists swinging and getting in each other's way more often than not. And in the midst of all of them, Hibari's weapons flashed like quicksilver, falling with precise blows upon heads and joints until he was the only one who remained standing among the carnage, like some ancient god of war. The few boys who weren't unconscious were groaning, clutching where they had been struck, and their victim had run away, leaving behind only a few pencils and a snapped ruler.

Languidly, Hibari walked over to the leader, nudging Kusakabe under the chin with his foot to make sure he had the boy's attention.

"Try this again, and I'll break your bones. A third time, and I'll bite you to death. Do you understand?"

It wasn't a threat, but a simple statement of fact, delivered in a flat tone that left no room for discussion. He waited for Kusakabe to nod, then turned around and walked away, stepping over the bodies that littered the ground.

From his experiences with hot-blooded people, Hibari didn't expect things to just end there, but nothing could have surprised him more when he arrived at school the next day. The moment he stepped inside the gates, he was greeted by a shout of "Good morning, boss!" and he turned to see Kusakabe and his hoodlums bowing to him.

"What's this?"

Hibari watched warily as Kusakabe approached him, smiling while sporting a black eye.

"Hibari-san, you're strong, and you've earned our respect. Please feel free to use us however you want," Kusakabe addressed him formally, bowing again. Some of the other students were staring at them, wide-eyed, and Hibari shoved the punk away with one hand.

"I'm not strong. You're just weak," he snapped. "That's why you just crowd together with the others. It makes me sick."

But his words didn't seem to upset the other boy, who deferentially took a step back to give Hibari the personal space that he clearly wanted. However, for the rest of the day, they hung in small groups at the corners of Hibari's vision whenever he wasn't in his classroom, following him around like a pack of devoted dogs. It was irritating, and when they began to follow him home after school, he snapped again, beating them all thoroughly, even though they didn't even try to fight back.

Gradually, though, Hibari noticed that their one-sided admiration seemed to be imposing better order on his beloved school. Small incidents were quickly straightened out without his interference, and for the most part, the gang stayed out of his way. So he tolerated their existences so long as they avoided grouping up in front of him, using them as yet another tool to protect the discipline at Namimori Middle School and in town as a whole. He never dealt with any of them directly except for Kusakabe, on the rare occasions that he had to give them orders; even so, he kept a close eye on them to ensure that they didn't overstep their bounds. 

His parents had loved the town, and so did he. Even though they had been betrayed, it was only because the authorities had all been weak: afraid of violence, dazzled by money, grasping for power, or any number of other reasons. Although Hibari intended to control them himself through the same methods, he had no intention of unleashing another pack of animals that would cause even more problems for others.

And on the day that he finally finished his compulsory education, he set out to settle the score.

Get To Know Tag

Thank you @yulalily for the tag!

I will tag @star-lemonade and @riamarie1031 if you haven't been tagged yet!

What day is your birthday? October 25th

What’s your favourite colour? I don't have a favorite color because I love all of them. Red and yellow are beautiful in there own way and I can't pick just one color to love wholeheartedly.

What’s your lucky number? I don't have a lucky number but my favorite is 7 because it's prime and I love the stroke patter for it.

Do you have any pets? I do! I personally have a corgi named Huchu but my family has another dog and she follows Huchu and I around.

How tall are you? 5 ft 5 inch or 167 cm

How many pairs of shoes do you own? I have a few, probably 15 pair? For different occasions.

Favourite song? It's hard to pick just one, but in terms of Kpop one of my favorites for a long time is Don't Wanna Cry by Seventeen. It makes me emotional and makes me hopeful.

Favourite movie? I don't know how you pick just one, one I've really loved recently was Raya The Last Dragon. I don't know why I like it a lot but I do. Huchu likes it too!

What would be your ideal partner? Someone that compliments my personality. Someone who is loving and thinks deeply on things and problems.

Do you want children? Not really.. XD. I get baby fever but not that bad of baby fever.

Have you gotten in trouble with the law? I have never been in trouble :).

Bath or shower? Shower. I love the constant flow of hot water.

What colour socks are you wearing? I'm not wearing any ;)

Favourite type of music? I don't think I have a necessary favorite type either. I like a lot of music genres. I'm terrible at these favorites things. 😖😖

How many pillows do you sleep with? Probably about eight? They're all on my bed but I usually lay on three or four.

What position do you sleep in? I move around in my sleep so different positions when I sleep.

What you don’t like when you’re sleeping? I don't like sleeping in general. I don't like that I'm missing so much happening in the world because my eyes are closed. I hate that I miss so much life and experiences because my body needs the rest.

What do you have for breakfast? Usually Cereal or an egg.

Have you ever tried archery? With a toy bow I have, but never in a professional capacity.

Favourite fruit? Watermelon

Favourite swear word? Bitch, I don't swear really but Ju and I call each other Bitch sometimes.

Do you have any scars? I have a lot. I worked as a carpenter for a year and I always tried to be really careful but I still had some accidents. My most prominent one is on the side of my wrist, it's still sensitive but it doesn't hurt any :).

Are you a good liar? Depends on what I'm lying about but I'm not the best at lying.

What’s your personality type? ENFP, I am 50/50 on the ENP part so those flip sometimes depending on the test.

What’s your favourite type of girl? I would say a girl who has isn't afraid to admit their weaknesses when needed. It's not always needed for someone to tell everyone their weakness, but perhaps when a situation arises where they lack something that can be honest about it. A thing to add though, is even if it's a weakness, she works through it as best she can. We all run into things where we don't excel, but if she can be honest about her limitations and then work as hard as she can, that's my favorite type of person in general.

Innie or outie? ... innie

Left or right handed? Right Handed

Favourite food? I had some new diet changes so I don't have a favorite at the moment.

Favourite foreign food? Bulgogi

Are you clean or messy? Clean always, I sometimes get a bit cluttered but it's not too hard to get things organized again.

Most used phrase? I tell Ju "Okay, no" a lot followed by more "no's" How long does it take for you to get ready? Depends on where I'm going and how much I'm getting ready. But my lowest amount of time can be five minutes. Longest probably an hour and a half.

Do you talk to yourself? I do, yes. I think I'm always talking to myself because I don't like my thoughts to be silent.

Do you sing to yourself? In my head, no. But when I'm alone I sing.

Are you a good singer? It depends on who you ask and in what way you mean. Some people like my singing, others don't. I think I have a pretty good tone?? but I don't give it that much praise.

Biggest fear? Rational - Being left alone, having no one I trust and confide in. Irrational - Sharks, specifically the great white kind.

Are you a gossip? In a way, yes. But it's usually over really pointless things that are forgotten quickly.

Do you like long or short hair? For myself, long.

Favourite school subject? I didn't have one. P.E if it counts?

Extrovert or introvert? 50/50 it depends on where I'm at in life also.

What makes you nervous? Pretty much everything.

Who was your first real crush? A friend who is now getting married.

How many piercings do you have? Two, if I wasn't so scared I'd get more.

How fast can you run? Short distances, pretty fast. Long distances, not so fast XD.

What colour is your hair? It's strawberry blonde.

What colour are your eyes? Hazel

What makes you angry? I don't get angry per say, I get upset usually. Too many things to count make me upset.

Do you like your own name? I don't mind it, but my mom almost named me something else and I would've liked that better.

Do you want a boy or a girl as a child? If I had a child I wouldn't mind either way, but I think I could connect with a boy better.

What are your strengths? I don't know if it really counts as a strength, but I really love animals.

What are your weaknesses? I get easily upset and anxious.

What’s the color of your bedspread? I have two. One that's two shades of grey and the other is red with white and grey.

Color of your room? My walls are grey but the accent color is red.

Main Takes from My Hero Academia Season 4

So now that episode 25 had aired, Season 4 of My Hero Academia has come to an end. Which means a long wait till the next one. Personally I binged most of it (having started binge watching a few months ago and stopping at Season 3 since Season 4 was still near midway), I got my dates muddled due to Self-Isolation and thought we were on Ep 24 instead of 23, so I’ve had to wait for the last 2, but it was fine since the final 2 are more backdoor mini-arcs to the next season.

Initially when S4 ended I wanted to do a full review, but I found myself writing tldr levels of stuff while still in the first arc, so I’m just doing quick bullet takes

Sadly, some spoilers are unavoidable, and even I was unable to be spoiled from S4 and manga stuff thanks to recommendation algorithms and haphazard/not-so-cryptic comments in threads. However, I don’t wanna spread that so if you’re not caught up on Season 4 watch it, Spoilers are below.

So Season 4 was wild, and exciting and did a mighty job swelling my stone of a heart XD But the main things I took from S4 was as follows

Obviously, Protect Eri at Every Cost in Every Currency

The Fast Tracking of All Might’s time coming to a close feels intentional as if to constantly put us on edge with the fact that Deku will be without his father figure

Never let a subordinate attack the main villain

Buff Tintin Mirio and Deku are the perfect buddy system

Team Fatgum is a wholesome well-rounded unit

We should’ve seen at least some of Tokoyami’s work study if you were gonna hype up Hawks 20 episodes prior

People think Chisaki was old enough to have a 6 year old kid, though age does seem to be deceptive as Gentle and La Brava show

Ryukyu, Nejire, Uraraka, Bubble Girl and Tsu could’ve had more active screentime, and Deku’s mother should’ve gotten a smidge given how Deku was in a literal Yakuza raid

Tamaki’s Quirk is awesome but poses a lot of morally questionable hypotheses on how far it can go, also Suneater is a badass nickname

Mina can involve breakdancing into any situation

Kirishima is a strong and brave man who deserves all the praise he got

It was also great to see that not everyone has the ‘Legs moved before thinking’ moment and it doesn’t diminish a person if they don’t have it, it’s also nice to see someone look up to someone else other than All Might, being number 1 doesn’t mean you’re everyone’s favourite.

No homo but Fitgum got them features

Toga is much stronger than I gave her credit for, I mean I knew she was strong but she stabbed Aizawa without her quirk while wrapped in his scarf threads! 

Mirio proves that you don’t need a quirk to be a hero, it just helps a bit, that boy didn’t give up

Chisaki’s plan was...odd actually, Eri can rewind sure but he can literally break down and reshape people, couldn’t he just mess up someone’s physiology and de-quirk them?

100% Deku is a force (though I reserve the disdain that Chisaki went for the cliché ‘big monster but my main body hangs out of it’ route)

Never sleep on the League of Villains

Uraraka and maybe Tsu were probably more traumatized than they let on, it’s not easy to get over holding a dying man in your arms

How do you hide a motherfucker as big as Gigantomachia in a forest!? He has a literal radio around his neck. Also I feel like Kurogiri could’ve escaped if he wanted to...

How did no-one think that Camie was compromised she acts completely different to Toga and she showed her quirk, wouldn’t they know what her quirk was from her file anyway?

That teacher needs therapy, and a long holiday

Seiji and Present Mic should do all the commentary

Bakugo has good leadership skills, but the license course didn’t really resolve his public abrasiveness

I do wanna see more of cross-school activities, more Inasa but also more Ms Joke and her lot

Aoyama was never gonna be the traitor, the dude is far too Cheesy

I was actually glad to see the Pussycats, and that Ragdoll is well now even if quirkless, for a while I thought she would be a vegetable or worse a Nomu

Sato’s image of Bakugo and Todoroki in a 70s Disco movie is hilarious and I will fight those who disagree

Be still my Kamijirou heart, the boy gave up a Maid Café to encourage her love for music, also her voice is beautiful

I still can’t stand Monoma...

Hatsume should just mark herself down as Deku’s official support mechanic, like his Lucius Fox because she just comes in clutch with what he needs

Deku should’ve really thought about using 20% in small bursts on his own, it’s okay he didn’t but let’s not forget that the boy has a brain on him

Gentle is the complete opposite of Chisaki; while Chisaki had the intimidation and evil plan he lacked a lot of personality outside of ‘Don’t Touch Me’ and ‘Yakuza Rights’, Gentle has more a nuisance who wants to be famous, but he has personality oozing out of every pore

Gentle is also proof that ‘legs moving without thinking’ doesn’t always work, had he saved that person his life would be much different just like how Deku’s life would’ve been different if All Might didn’t step in. But sadly he was subjected to a vicious environment where everyone rejected him. Hopefully he can get a second chance to be good, because even some of his criminal activities had good intentions in them

The school festival episode was just euphoric fun, also Bakugo’s ‘we won’ face was great

The new top 10 is interesting, but Ryukyu was robbed. She fought a monster of the Hassakai and lost placement!? I’m also surprised Nighteye wasn’t in the Top 10 given how powerful his quirk is and how he was able to bring heroes of multiple agencies together. Glad Jeanist is alive I do worry a little about Kamui though, he keeps getting mentioned for his ascent as a ‘promising young hero’, also people really thirst for the tan bunny

I cannot get a read on Hawks, his quirk is cool though

This Liberation front seems key for next season

Todoroki’s hot sister is still hot...what do you mean that’s not relevant!?

High End is pretty dangerous, but heroes should really aim for the head with these things (I do like the little touch that Nomu abilities differ by their colour)

Endeavor’s redemption arc is earned, it’s still not there yet but it’s important not to fast track it, he’s owning up to his mistreatment rather than expecting forgiveness and that is a good way to build to it, he had his United States of Smash moment and it was a gloriously animated fight

This spells bad things for the hierarchy though that the Number 1 and 2 had to work together to stop a monster sent by other villains, it diminishes the chart structure and Dabi knows that...plus he probably wanted to stick it to his old man because he’s obviously a Todoroki

Did not expect to see other One for All holders! What does it mean!? And why is Deku just a hand and half a head? Is it just a show that he’s only 20% at his power? Season 5 is gonna be crazy

Okay, so I’m having issues now. I still love the characters but honestly? While CCS is one of Clamp’s most definitive and well known series, leading it to Tsubasa, it’s a bit of a mess.

Love transcends all and hitsuzen are beautiful concepts but Clamp takes it a bit too far... I mean, it’s perfectly alright for students to crush on their teachers and to an extent, I can see teachers being fond of them and flattered. But all relationships are not equal at all!

Nadeshiko and Fujitaka - honestly, they’re so in love that it’s hard to find a fault here. 16 isn’t terribly immature and is the age of consent, so it’s legal and everything. What I don’t understand is why Clamp characters refuse to wait? They just needed to two years for Nadeshiko to be in college and for their relationship to be easier for others to swallow. Sure, true love and they don’t need anyone’s approval and most importantly, they were happy, but it can’t be terribly healthy for Nadeshiko to be pregnant so young nor is it entirely fair to call her family unsupportive since it was unconventional. Still though, it’s Fujitaka, and he’s such a good man, and it is legal, so you do give it a pass. I’ll admit that despite my reservations, out of all the pairings I mention here, they are my favorite and I do believe they were truly happy; look at their kids, they’re wonderful!

Then there’s Kaho and Touya, which rings all sorts of warning bells but not sirens. It’s underage and kinda weird, but there’s a pull of magic there and most importantly, we don’t know the extent of their relationship. I mean, sure, they said they loved each other but if all they did was exchange meaningful looks and conversations and hug, I don’t think it’s too bad. I mean, there are true enough feelings so. Too bad Touya gets hurt at 14 though, that’s why it’s not entirely healthy for kids to get into serious relationships but I guess he’s mature?🙄

Kaho and Eriol are a conundrum. This would be super problematic but with Eriol’s frozen age and reincarnation and again, the pull of magic and hitsuzen, it makes it much easier to digest; it even makes sense! I don’t know how they’ll work it out, but shouldn’t it be concerning that Kaho is attracted to pre-early teen boys?😓

Rika and Terada-Sensei are fine in the anime but creepy in the manga. Now I get it Rika, he’s hot and all but girl, he’s like two decades your senior! So in the anime, Rika has a crush, which is fine and understandable, and while Terada is fond of her, he thinks of her as a particularly dedicated student. If he eventually falls for her, at least 10 years later, it’ll be sorta weird, but perfectly acceptable. In the manga though! Jfc! He gives her a promise ring and honey, that’s just underage and weird as all hell. Even if it’s ‘meant to be’ and she’s ‘mature for her age’, which sounds hella predatory, it’s not okay to encourage this when she’s so young. It’s still all ‘pure’ and ‘legal’ because nothing happens, but acknowledging it to such an extent is highly inappropriate. Even if she’s in love, Rika’s 9! She has so much to learn and live through before she goes around making commitments, even if they are just words. Jfc, this was weird, and I’m sticking with the anime version, or I’ll never be able to look at CCS the same way.

Listen, I’m a huge fan of Clamp’s concept of love transcending but perhaps not conquering all, and hitsuzen but there are limits and one thing that Clamp needs to instil in its characters is patience. If you’re so in love, waiting a little while so that everyone’s in a better place to make decisions shouldn’t be a problem. You needn’t alienate families or tip-toe the legal lines in order to prove your love. Sometimes patience and waiting go a long way. Look at Romeo and Juliet, they might be a classic love story but those kids, because Juliet was 14 and Romeo 16, are an example of the fact that even true love doesn’t stand a chance if you don’t think things through, and while age isn’t the only indicator of intelligence, it does lead to experience which can contribute to it.

Live and learn people! At least our favorite canon pairings from CCS, Syaoran/Sakura and Touya/Yukito(Yue), seem to be on the right track!

Also for those who find Tomoyo’s love obsessive -

She’s 10, she’s allowed to be a little nuts over her love. We all like Sakura but tbh, she drives me a little nuts with the number of times she goes all hanyaan and sings Yukito~! every two seconds, but if that’s acceptable, so is Tomoyo’s enthusiasm.

She’s not even that bad! It’s easy enough to see her only as a best friend. She adores Sakura, finds her adorable and her passion for fashion and photography add to it. She’s a true artist and they’re always a little passionate and eccentric!

She’s always so good about not only acknowledging but also being completely on board with all the other crushes going around. She comforts Meiling, encourages Sakura and advises Syaoran, all to the detriment of her personal feelings. Though Tsubasa isn’t a continuation of CCS by any chance, you do get hints of what kind of person Tomoyo will grow up to be, and I think she’ll get over her romantic love for Sakura and eventually find someone who perfect for her (I don’t meant Kurogane, Kurofai is endgame and it’s practically canon, fight me.)

People compare her and Sakura to Sonomi and Nadeshiko and call it crazy, but if your beloved cousin/best friend suddenly ran off with her teacher and got married and pregnant soon after, no matter how amazing the teacher is (and Fujitaka is awesome), you’d have issues. Plus Sonomi was less mad about losing Nadeshiko than she was about the fact that her relationship was sudden and led to her being disowned. She also eventually accepts Fujitaka, so it’s not a problem with him alone either. Both Daidouji’s are some of my favourite characters because I honestly feel like, when the magic ends, they’ll take things in a stride and not only lead successful lives but also help the others do so. Lbr, Sakura needs real life skills stat xD

And that’s the end of my essay xD

It always upsets me when I see things I’ve loved forever in a different and less flattering light but sometimes you learn things along the way, and not everything is perfect, but you can still love it🤷🏻‍♀️

[candle-anon]

70 horrible questions: every question with the number 6

06: How do you want to die?

I kinda have a suicide plan. But when I do not feel suicidal, I think I would just want to pass away in my sleep when I’m old.

16: How exactly are you feeling at the moment?

Mentally good, or maybe okaish is a better word. Physically my stomach hurts rn and I’m drinking hot tea to help myself. 

26: What are you craving right now?

I would give everything to drink bubble tea right now.

36: Do you give out second chances too easily?

My last relationship proven that indeed, I do. But I don’t regret it. I’d rather think how much I got from giving the chance than how much I could have lost if I didn’t.But I almost always stop at second chances. There are no third ones.

46. this question doesn’t exist

56: How many people have you fist fought?

Two, both when I was around 12. I remember I got a fist of sand and threw it into someone’s face, too. Not the proudest move, but quite fortunate because I didn’t come back hurt - and the girl I fought was three times stronger. I did not want to fight her. Other person was my friend at the time and i just punched them in a face after they insulted my family. 

60: Do you wanna get married?

Yes, but I don’t want a church wedding.

61: Is it cute when a boy/girl calls you baby?

It is, but due to my past relationship I would not like anyone to call me that. Not yet, because I’m still hurting.

62: What makes you happy?

My friends, animals, tea and writing. Simple things.

63: Would you change your name?

Yes. I actually LIKE my name, but it is too “womanly” and due to my dysphoria I would like more of an unisex name. Now my friends call me Eight, mostly.

64: Would it be hard to kiss the last person you kissed?

Hard, really hurtful and painful.

65: Your best friend of the opposite sex likes you, what do you do?

I do not know what is an opposite gender to genderfluid. But if we say I’m afab, then any amab friend I have would count. I am not in love with anyone except my ex now, so I would just explain my feelings and offer to stay friends. It happened to me before & we’re still friends years after that.

66: Do you have a friend of the opposite sex who you can act your complete self around?

Again, no opposite sex, but I do have a best friend I am most comfortable with and I know I can always be myself around. 

67: Who was the last person of the opposite sex you talked to?

Say opposite sex one more time and I will be ready to kill. I think I last talked to @voidistooshortforausername.

68: Who’s the last person you had a deep conversation with?

Again, @voidistooshortforausername and some issues, though the method of talking seemed like two dumbassess trying to understand shit I guess. XD

69: Do you believe in soulmates?

I did.
