#poems from a ghoul

[jasonthephilosopher]

Poem 01,

Fool

I regret letting you go, I dream of you still

No matter the circumstances, how much you wanted me and how much I wanted you I felt as though

You were a dream

Too beautiful, too radiant

Your laughter rang in my ears like wedding bells

And no matter how much I wanted you, needed you, loved you so deeply to the point of aching,

I knew that you were too good for me.

When I wake after you press a gentle kiss to my forehead in those dreams, I weep.

I'm sorry, I'm sure you understand.

more Party and Ghoul fanart :DDDD

Somebody needs to write about PC kissing the ghouls on the cheek scenarios. PC who is just really physically affectionate but has been holding back from showing it cuz of the sudden curse and being in a new place but as she gets more used to Darkwick, she lets herself be more affectionate with her friends. The kissing on the cheek is platonic from pc's side tho. Like imagine PC kissing Kaito on the cheek as she is so grateful for him being there for her always. Kaito's reaction would be so funny. Like bro is gonna ascend . He is going to scream out of excitement and the entire Darkwick is going to know lol. PC kissing Haku's cheek after he walks her to the cathedral. Haku's flirting going to max but he is blushing internally. The angst of PC going in to kiss Rui but remembers that she will die,so she can't kiss Rui. Absolute chaos after PC gives a kiss to Lyca. The surprised reaction from Jin. Ren "ewww what was that" but wishing she would do it again. Taiga one would be hilarious. Like who are you ? What did you do to my cheek? Gun firing. She can't kiss Zenji but still does and Zenji starts composing poems on the spot even though he can't feel the kiss. This scenario is so fun

When They Know They're In Love ~ Hotarubi Edition

I will be doing the other houses and will link them here once they're posted (I only have Obscuary and Mortkranken left). I hope you like this and if you did, please feel free to send in requests for what you'd like to see.

Fandom: Tokyo Debunker

Characters: Subaru Kagami, Haku Kusanagi, Zenji Kotodama x gn! Reader

Frostheim | Vagastrom | Jabberwock | Sinostra | Hotarubi | Obscuary | Mortkranken

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

How do the characters know they're in love and what will they do when they realise?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Subaru is going into absolute panic mode the moment he realises he has feelings for you. There’s no way this can be happening.

I think he would realise when he sees you interacting the Lyca or any of the ghouls from Obscuary.

Seeing you, a normal human, interacting so casually with ghouls even more dangerous than usual makes his heart flutter.

But I feel like Subaru struggles with self confidence so he would be convinced there’s no way you could like him back.

It would take him a long time to confess to you off his own back. Maybe Zenji, Haku, or Lyca can help the process along…

Haku is a lot more open with his feelings than Subaru. He knows what he’s feeling and isn’t afraid to tell you.

I feel like it would almost be a love at first sight thing. He sees you and falls straight away but it takes him some time to realise the depth of his feelings.

He seems like the kind of person to give out compliments and flirt with a lot of people. Which completely backfires when he decides to court you properly.

There’s part of you that’s not sure whether he’s being genuine or not so he has to work extra hard to convince you that he does actually love you.

He’ll give you a lot more genuine and non-flirtatious compliments. If he’s going to make you fall for him as well, Haku knows he’s got to build something real.

Zenji is such an interesting case because he absolutely knows he loves you but he doesn’t really know how to go about pursuing a relationship considering his condition.

I see him as someone who falls in love very easily but not in a bad way. He just sees the beauty in everything.

But when it comes to you and your appreciation (in his eyes at least) of art, and especially his art, it’s different. He really does love you with his whole heart.

He’ll definitely lay it on think, writing songs and poems for you and leaving love letters in your bag for you to find later.

No, all he can do is hope you can find it in you to love him back, even with the challenges in your path.

Phantom definitely has a huge ass crush on Aether when he’s first summoned. The kind of crush where you admire them so much that you feel like you shouldn’t even talk to them because they surely have more important things. Maybe phant sort of ends up avoiding directly addressing Aether for a while, scared to interrupt him when he’s talking or be presumptuous about their relationship as his replacement in the band.

Aether likes Phantom, the cute little quint is very unique and he feels close to him immediately because of their shared element. He understands Phantom’s avoidance as the newbie being intimidated by him so he makes a point to be extra relaxed around him, chatting more than usual, bringing up topics he thinks phant would like, but it doesn’t have the affect he thought it might. Bug seems tense whenever he shows familiarity, but he can scent the positive feelings on Phantom, so he hasn’t any idea in hell why the guy clams up with him around. It doesn’t deter him though, he just pulls back to find another angle of attack.

Dew points out in passing that the new quint ghoul has a fat crush on him and it hits him like a truck. Aether can’t wipe the goofy grin off his face for the whole day. His new mission is to court Phantom.

Phantom’s life for the next few weeks is chaotic. Aether went from his normal demeanor to distant for a few days, straight into showering him in attention. He’d come in to practice early only to find his guitar already tuned in the particular way he likes it, sticky note attached to the instrument with a lavender heart scribbled on it. He wakes up groggy and stumbles to the kitchen, drawing up short in the doorway, eyes bugging out as he watches Aether lumber around the room in boxers and an apron, cooking his favorite breakfast. Aether catches his eye and winks with a fangy grin. He finds himself sat at the table, steaming blackberry waffles set in front of him, and the big ghoul ruffles his bed head before kissing the same spot. The waffles are cold before he can move again.

Bouquets of withered roses in every nook, his favorite sweets left on his pillow, a fucking poem?? (It’s NOT good, but he loves it because Aether wrote it) Phantom’s heart can’t take much more of this and he endeavors to confront Aether about his behavior. It’s movie night, everyone is getting snacks and milling about, but Aether is already sitting on the couch. The little quint takes a deep breath and stomps over to stand in front of him, but can’t get a word out before Aether is smiling and dragging the lean man into his lap and nuzzling into his neck. Phantom heats immediately and whines up at the ceiling, but everyone is filing in and getting comfortable as they start the movie (romcom), so he doesn’t say anything yet again.

Phantom can’t focus on the movie because of feeling Aether’s body move with his breathing and the warm air that tickles his neck. The big quint tightens is arms around Phantom and nibbles his ear. Phant can’t take it anymore and mewls loudly, everyone glancing over at him. He scrambles out of Aether’s lap and bolts out of the room. He curls up in a corner near the bookshelf in the common area and soon enough Aether’s heavy footsteps follow him and the man kneels down in front of where he hides. He just smiles and plucks him out of the corner, gentle kiss pressed to phantom’s lips.

Aether tells him he loves him and he starts crying, bewildering the big ghoul. He begins to apologize but phant shakes his head and confesses everything he’s been feeling until now, big wet tears sliding down his face.

They make up for lost time with slow sweet sex while everyone finishes the movie.

I'LL IMAGINE WE FELL IN LOVE

ft. subaru kagami, haku kusanagi, zenji kotodama

summary ; the hotarubi ghouls and lyrics from blue by yung kai.

notes : hi tkdb fandom i got roped up in this silly game and started writing for it. oops. sorry if they're ooc in any way, im still kinda new ... (ﾉД`)

SUBARU KAGAMI

"You'd be mine, would you mind if I took your hand tonight?

Know you're all that I want this life."

Subaru had never been one for physical affection. He'd feel far too guilty about having taken an nonconsensual glimpse into the other person's memories. Poor boy, really.

There's no difference in his reaction when your fingertips brush against his skin when you had picked up the sweet little treat Subaru had offered you from his hand. You barely even had any time to react before he started apologizing profusely, slipping on his gloves.

Subaru paused when he felt your hand on his skin again, images of your memories flashing through his head. He tried to pull away, only to find that your hand was wrapped tightly around his wrist. He looked up at you, an understandable look of confusion and surprise marring his pretty features. "I don't have anything to hide from you." Is all you say, with that sweet smile Subaru had fallen for. Your hand moves from his wrist, instead slipping your fingers between his own.

He finds himself unable to stop the pink dusting his cheeks, eyes wide.

You, however, took that as a negative reaction, pulling your hand away. But as soon as you did, his face fell almost imperceptibly, and he gently wrapped his hand around your own again.

Subaru thought it was greedy of him. He had everything already, fame, influence, the academy's trust, and so on. But he couldn't stop this feelings of wanting more.

No maybe not, because he would throw away all of those things if he could have you. You're the only thing he wants in this life.

HAKU KUSANAGI

"My love will always stay by you

It's stuck with you forever, so promise you won't let it go

I'll trust the universe will always bring me to you."

Haku has a playful and flirtatious aura about him that isn't lost to those he graces with his presence. It's simply in his nature – "a devilish charm," as Zenji puts it.

Him doing all these romantic gestures of giving you his umbrella or jacket, or walking you back to the cathedral after you've helped out in Hotarubi never really crossed your mind as, well, romantic. Though that seems rather silly now if you were to think about it.

But now you're wondering if this is all really just platonic when you find your hand on his chest, his heartbeat drumming against it steadily. It's faster than usual, you note. "Feel that? It's all yours, princess." He says in his usual playful, light-hearted tone. And for a second you want to reply with "Feel what? Your tit?" but the words die on your tongue as you catch sight of the distinctively soft gaze he has on you. The way he's looking at you doesn't match the tone he's saying those stupidly romantic words with, and you're not sure anymore whether you want to believe that this is all still purely platonic or that it's been romantic this whole time.

You don't say anything in response, but the way your body relaxes and you move to lean your head on his shoulder speaks volumes. Maybe you can't be together in this life, but the way he looks at you has you believing that Haku would find you in the next one, and the one after, and so on, no matter what it takes.

ZENJI KOTODAMA

"I think I'll picture us, you with the waves

The ocean's colors on your face

I'll leave my heart with your air"

Beauty can be found in anything. Zenji, being the artistic and passionate man he is, couldn't agree more to this statement. He finds beauty in anything and everything, even the seashell you picked up by the shore. He even wrote a poem about it.

Having been so distracted by Zenji's singing, you accidentally dropped the seashell, the object getting washed away by the waves. Without thinking, you ran into the water to chase after it, the small waves crashing against your feet as you trudged deeper and deeper into the ocean.

At some point, Zenji must have noticed you were missing, judging from his exclamation of "My dear! Be careful!" coming from behind you that the whole beach could probably hear... if he wasn't a ghost. Either way, his voice was enough to stop you from going any further, now realizing that you were knee-deep in the water.

You take a few steps back, a sigh escaping your lips as you realize and accept that that seashell was good as gone.

What you didn't realize though, was the way Zenji was looking at you. The moonlight casted a soft, silver glow on your face, highlighting your features. Zenji always knew you were beautiful, but this moment in particular, he could almost feel his heart beating wildly in his chest as if he were alive again. He truly felt like he could ascend right at that moment.

You had your gaze fixed on the horizon in front of you, and was only broken out of your trance as you hear Zenji start to compose yet another ode, only this time, it was about the fair maiden in front of him.

Ghoul

Ghoul, why do you linger?

was your life not as full

as your dreams?

there's no epitaph

for a haunted heart

do you dance in eternity

or look with an icy eye

at the world you watch?

intimate from inside the home

you died in

a broken window and dark blue hands

discover fast what an ended life has to enjoy...

[anomaly-076]

The handwriting in which the note is written for some reason doesn't seem to match its envelope and contents:

'My beloved Y/N, as you may know, we have stepped into the most beautiful time of the year. The month of love! And as such it would be such a shame to not express the feelings you feel for your other fellow human or ghoul. And for that reason I am sending you this letter with the help of the oh, so kind Like Dove and Haku to ask you that you meet me under the most beautiful weeping cherry tree in the Hotarubi gardens at 1 o'clock past noon. Prepare to be charmed and courted to with the most eloquent and flowery poems from the greatest romance poet since Nakahara Chuuya. Sincerely, your faithful admirer, - Zenji Kotodama'

The prettiest weeping cherry... That would be easy task to find, if it weren't for the fact that all the weeping cherry trees were so beautiful. Is the choice up to you then? Maybe if you're a bit too late, you'll be able to find Zenji under the one he meant?

As you're entering the Hotarubi grounds, you notice that it's not raining as hard as usually. A soft sound of melody played on biwa can be heard over the relaxing rushing of water and yet, Zenji is nowhere to be found.

You walk around until you find yourself under one weeping cherry tree that perfectly shields you from the rain and as you look around, you can fully see the whole expanse of the grounds. So maybe this tree is it?

A sudden feeling of someone walking towards you alerts your senses, but when you turn around there's nobody there. You're about to turn back when you notice the familiar head of Zenji's doll peaking up from behind the tree.

"Ah, my apologies for startling you, my dear. I've intended to approach you in much more evident manner. Oh, and please excuse my little brother; he's only curious about you as much as I am." Zenji appears in front of you and bows his head down in apology.

"I-it's okay..." you answer, unsure what to think about being third-wheeled by a doll.

"Then, shall I begin? Please, seat yourself as I've had a seat prepared here just for your likeness." Zenji pulls out a thick notebook - presumably filled with pieces for your ears only - and motions courtly to the ornate bench placed at the base of the weeping tree.

have an angsty cherri cola headcanon bc @cowboycatss sent me a little cat doodle that made my day and i hear they like to kick that guy <3

so after the fab four die, some killjoys make a shrine for them in the basement of the diner, and they put up little trinkets they had from the fab four (an old drawing party had done for someone, a rag kobra used to clean his bike, jet's trusty wrench, the shell of an old bomb ghoul made, etc.). and people don't own shit in the zones, but cherri's become like the defacto owner of the diner now, but it's turned into a kind of public place now. at first he thought it was a good idea, bc the fab four never got a burial and they were heroes that deserved to be remembered--and even if was painful to have such a blatant reminder of them, of his cowardice and failure, it was good for others to have a place to mourn.

but then, people start bringing in not things that had belonged to the fab four, but offerings and prayers. cherri watches the four friends he loved actively pass into legend, his old crew having their humanity traded for godhood. he knew party and jet and ghoul and kobra, and of course he wants people to remember them and know their story and their sacrifice but destroya he didn't know people would start worshiping them. and with every little too-personal relic someone manages to find and add (a journal of jet's secret poems, dogtags ghoul almost never took off, gloves with kobra's blood on them, poison's bad luck beads), the more it makes him want to throw up and tear down the altar--but then he'll see some young 'joy kneeling down with tears and wonder in their eyes, and he knows that he can't. they aren't his to know anymore--he gave up that privilege.

[yuri-is-online]

I am surprised that the academy isn’t allowing the MC to have an artifact to protect herself. Could it be that the academy wants her to depend on ghouls or the ring so she can unlock more information about it? I think it’s wild, especially since we see Thomas having two artifacts, one being a weapon and the other the Skeleton Key.

So slight correction, Tohma does not have two artifacts, the skeleton key is something he says he got permission from the school to use for the mission Frostheim is on in Episode 1. It is not his, his artifact is his axe (which is so so sexy of him tbh I love me a man in melee range)

The bit about wanting MC to rely on the ghouls is probably true? But they aren't being hypocritical by not allowing her an artifact for self defense. I think her best bet for self defense would be to get one of those guns Romeo has in his stash. Or to start taking sword classes, I bet Zenji would go crazy if she took up kendo and write a bunch of poems about a flower blooming on the battlefield.

WRATH

Wrath, a sin born in hell.

Rage of a crestfallen human.

A feral expression to a squall.

The mask of our suppressed fear,

Harping poisonous smear.

Wrath, the best friends of Pride and Envy.

Rudiment of grudge and heart’s peavy.

Aliment to kedge our vainglory.

The only boon, its ephemeral clutch,

Hatching us to a demonic apery.

Wrath, the battle where words are weapons,

Rearing our vengeance with gore.

Aftermath bestow us, a rueful eagre

To our soulful haven;

Heaping us, the impiety of Heaven.

Wrath, the self-injecting poison for

Renege of temporisers.

And giving a wistful smile

To those sycophants filled with bile,

Hushing us up, for a baneful exile.

Wrath, Oh! the soul’s woe for

Repugnant repudiation and remorse.

Alas! It never neglects evermore friends,

Tampering their memories and faith.

Hew them, they sprout as two gorse.

Wrath, the antipode of amity, which

Resents our benign soul.

An aumbry of crude impulse has

Trumped us up, like a ghoul.

However, a revival of innate zeal.

Wrath, the asperity teaches us,

Rekindling hope leads to dander.

A learning lesson from it, it’s you,

The trouble and the peace, it’s you,

Hitch and the solution, it’s you!

Wrath, the altruism‘s ending;

Revulsion’s inception.

Antidote to wrath is unconditional love.

The blistering karma has taught us,

Hate has four words, so does love.

SUMMARY:

‘Wrath’ is an Acrostic type of poem, in which the first letter of each line

spells out a word or a message. Every stanzas define, wrath in a unique way.

The below are the meaning of each stanza;

I. Wrath is a sin born in hell. It is the rage (extreme anger) of a crestfallen (disappointed) human. It is a feral (untamed) expression to a squall (storm). The mask of our suppressed fear, which harping (dwell/ think) us, as a poisonous smear(slander/ damage to reputation)

II. Wrath has two best friends, Pride (ego) and Envy (jealousy). It’s like when one sin gets turned on, automatically others join the party. It’s the rudiment (basis) of grudge and the heart’s peavy (lumberman’s sharp lever, to handle wood). Wrath acts an aliment (nourishment) to kedge (a small anchor, used as a support to pull a boat) our vainglory (excessive pride). The only boon (advantage) is its ephemeral (temporary) clutch on us and hatching (creating) us to perform a demonic apery (mimicry/imitation).

III. Wrath is the battle, where the words are used as weapons, making us to rear (breed) our vengeance (revenge) with gore (bloodshed). The aftermath of this battle bestow (give) us, a rueful (regretful) eagre (giant sea wave) to our soulful (emotional) haven (refuge; here means, our body) and heaping (piling) us with the impiety (sins) of Heaven.

IV. Wrath is the self-injecting poison for the renege (revoke one’s promise) of the temporisers (people who evade decisions to gain time or who beat around the bush). It makes us to give a wistful (vague) smile to those sycophants (people who tries to gain advantage over us) filled with bile (bitterness) and hushing us up (silently pushing us) for a baneful exile (harmful banishment; it means deserted mental torment which we feel inside our body, cause by wrath).

V. Wrath, the soul’s woe (suffering) for repugnant (unacceptable) repudiation (rejection from others) and remorse (deep guilt). And wrath never neglects evermore (eternal) friends, it tampers (interfere) their memories and faith. If you hew (cut) them, i.e. friends; they sprout as two gorse (thorny bush).

VI. Wrath is the antipode (opposite) of amity (friendship), which resents (envies/dislikes) our benign (kind) soul. Wrath is an aumbry (cupboard) of crude impulse (unrefined manner of action) which has trumped us up (falsely accused us) like a ghoul (a ghost). However, Wrath is a revival (refreshment) of innate zeal (inborn peace) of our body.

VII. Wrath, the asperity (the hate) teaches us, rekindling hope leads to dander (anger). A learning lesson from it,

It’s you, the trouble and the peace

It’s you, hitch (problem) and the solution

It’s you!

The above lines represents the wrath’s self-taught lesson, it’s us, who has to change, not the others!

VIII. Wrath is the altruism’s (selflessness) ending and revulsion’s (hatred) inception (beginning). The antidote (remedy) to Wrath is unconditional love. The blistering (flaming/fierce) karma has taught us, Hate has four words, so does Love!

OVERALL MESSAGE FROM THE POEM:

Wrath, unleashes our animalistic senses, which we hide deep inside our soul. It’s innate, can’t be changed, but can be controlled.

Buddha says, ‘You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger’.

Wrath wraps and weighs down our soul and makes us commit vengeance.

Expectation and hope from others, are the two main reason for wrath. So expect less from others and be more content with yourself.

Happiness is the key to peace; sadness is the key to sin!

This is my first poem I ever wrote, my friend said her colleague is searching people for an anthology they are working on, it was short on time for a short story (as I used to write cliche short stories) I thought a poem (the shortest version of a story) would be great, but was stuck on topic, so grabbed one of the sins, WRATH, created my way out of it. I wrote the summary for my bsf, as she said the words I used are new and complicated to understand (🚨 BEGINNERS MISTAKE 😔 of using every fancy words we see) Ig, I can't bury my past as it shaped me the poet that I am today.

I’m so tired here are some assorted Disventure Camp headcanons:

•Jake is really into poetry. Some of his poems are bangers, some of them are absolute dogshit. He posts some of them online, mostly the bad ones because he’s not self-aware of how bad they are. He will spend hours on end writing in his notes app. Guy is a big fan of sonnets and free verse but his strong suits are odes and villanelles

•Rosa María, James, Yul, Lake, Riya, Fiore, and Alec are all multilingual. Rosa speaks English and Spanish, James speaks Portuguese and English, Yul speaks Korean and English, Lake speaks German and English as well as some French, Riya speaks Hindi and English, Fiore speaks English and some Italian, and Alec speaks English as well as a variety of other languages (he did a minor in linguistics for his university degree so he knows the basics of multiple major languages).

•Hunter’s a competitive chess player. Ally’s the only person who’s ever beat him fair and square, but even then, that rarely happens

•Lake is great at baking. She’s incredibly exact when it comes to measurements, timing, and technique. Rosa, meanwhile, is a great cook and she doesn’t measure anything

•Aiden can play bass guitar. He started learning as a teenager because he wanted to join an emo band one day. Chase your dreams boy

•Yul used to have braces and he’s really embarrassed about it

•Gabby’s a forager, she loves to forage for wild fruit and mushrooms and greens

•Ellie’s kinda a ghoul in the kitchen. Like she can make good food and drinks but most of the time she’s so tired that she makes evil energy drink-instant coffee potions or like that pistachio & condensed milk concoction from Arthur

•In a better universe I think Ellie and Jake are frenemies instead of fully hating each other and they play Minecraft together and Ellie is constantly stealing Jake’s shit and trying to defeat the Ender Dragon meanwhile he screams every time he sees a Creeper and begs her to turn Keep Inventory on because he keeps dying

•Miriam gets a cat after the show. She’s an older white cat named Snowball and she has the same personality as her. They are best friends and Miriam is so annoyed by her. She made them matching sweaters. Snowball is only fully nice to Jake

•Fiore listens to Thrash Metal. It’s partially just to throw people off when they find out, she thinks it’s funny

•Fiore also enjoys those YouTube prank videos, she knows they’re fake they’re just so stupid that she finds them hilarious. Kristal gives her an iPad for a day one time for entertainment and it pisses the rest of the Magenta team off so bad because she keeps playing these prank videos and watching epic fail compilations at full volume

•Grett loves crocheting. She slowly turns into one of those people who crochets during lectures and while watching movies and shit

•James is really good at Tetris

•Ally is obsessed with Sci-Fi. She, Tess, and Hunter watch Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Star Wars together because they all love the worldbuilding so much. Tess writes fanfiction about almost everything they watch. Hunter has terrible media literacy and misses the themes every time but he has fun watching

•After All Stars, Riya gets really into tattoos. She gets matching ones with Connor

•People antagonize Tom with the cop slide video and every time he clenches his fist and goes, “Stop laughing at him.”

•Kai has a bunch of pet bugs. Maggy’s secretly afraid of them still but she’s getting there. She likes rollie pollies

•Karol used to do roller derby and Lill used to ice skate. Ggirlf,riends,,, I miss them chat. Where is my old woman yuri

•Aiden eats plain yogurt nothing on it and it’s the one thing James doesn’t like about him. Like it’s so upsetting to him. Why does he eat plain yogurt

•Ashley likes hyperpop, don’t tell anyone

•Tom likes crockpot food. He is not invited to potlucks for this reason. He will always bring the crockpot

•Alec doesn’t like splatter films but he really enjoys psychological horror, especially mockumentaries and mondo films

•Lake read creepypasta a lot as a kid and she wouldn’t go into the kitchen after dark because she was afraid of Jeff the Killer appearing at her fridge

Haunt

haunt my body while you can

between living now

and darkness later

put your ghost in my bones

bring life to my last breath

a Ghoul welcome at the wake

I will never be at peace

where salt rots our union

and love dies

only your lingering soul

from a past belly deep

gives my Ghost

pleasure to lie in
