Kino's Journey > Hermes

Inanimate Object Characters List | Entry: 71

Had it not been for Hermes, I definitely wouldn't have bought the entire manga series. To be fair, I'm not a motorrad person, they're one of my least favourite vehicles (personal opinion), but he grew on me!

Character: Hermes

Light novel series: Kino's Journey (Japanese ver. 2000-2020) | Anime series: Kino's Journey - the Beautiful World - (2003) | Movie: Kino's Journey: In Order to Do Something - Life Goes On - (2005) | Movie: Kino's Journey: Country of Illness - For You - (2007) | Manga series: Kino's Journey (Japanese ver. 2017-2020, English ver. 2019-2021) | Kino's Journey - the Beautiful World - the Animated Series (2017)

The light novel series could potentially be ongoing. There is an English version of the first volume (2006), but the translation was discontinued. There appears to be a light novel/manga spin-off series, called Guaken Kino, and a second manga series (Japanese).

I put all media after one another here. It's in chronological order.

wassail, wassail

downton abbey | thomas barrow/edward courtenay | canon divergence | rated g | 50k

mid-December, 1920: Robert discovers one of Sybil's former patients is living in York, and invites him to spend Christmas at Downton. Things go as well as one might expect.

GODS, this is one of the most amazing fics i’ve read in my LIFE. the series that it comes from, the trees sweetly blooming, has other absolutely incredible moments and is absolutely worth a read, but wassail, wassail was the first installment that i read, and to be honest, i don’t think i’ve ever actually gotten over it! this is probably the essential edward courtenay/thomas barrow fic, if i was an authority on the subject! if you know me, you’ll know that I’m usually more into barris than his relationship with courtenay but my FRIENDS this fic is the exception that proves the rule. if you’re going to read ANY edward/thomas fic, please please please read this one. it’s such a beautifully developed look at the downton cast, thomas character (pre series 3 levels of sassy-ness) and giving a short lived character like edward a chance to be characterised so so well. the dynamics between all of the characters are so new while maintaining all of the original magic that you’ll know and love from downton abbey

favourite excerpt:

Thomas,” Edward breathed. “It’s absolutely perfect. I love it—I’ll use it every day— you’ll be sick of me telling you the time—”

“How could I be sick of it?” Thomas rested his chin on Edward’s shoulder. “What time is it now?”

**

have you read this fic? if yes, why not give it a comment, bookmark, and kudos! if not, go read it! share this with others and let the author know how amazing their work is!

as always, if you have a rec that you’d like to share with the blog, drop it in the askbox!

His hand was holding hers tight, dragging her along the trail with a look of childish glee. She'd never seen Yusei look this relaxed before, and she couldn't believe something as simple as taking him to look at a trail of holiday lights would be what caused it. Aki wasn't complaining, though. She loved seeing him look so happy. "Yusei, slow down," she teased, unable to stop herself from laughing. "I have much shorter legs than you!"

"Not that much shorter," he shot back with a grin, but he complied with her request all the same. He came to a stop in front of one of the lights, pulling her into a tight hug. "You were right: this is fun."

He'd fought against the idea, not because he didn't like the idea of spending time with Aki, but because spending time in the public eye had been growing increasingly uncomfortable. People would approach them on a date and ask for photos, autographs, and sometimes worse of all, when they were going to get married. He didn't like that kind of pressure. He barely liked talking to people on a good day. It made date nights incredibly awkward. He supposed that came with the territory of fame. It was a concept that he didn’t care for. And well... it wasn't like he wasn't planning on asking Aki to marry him... someday. But they hadn't even properly been together for a few months! People asking when he was going to marry just made him feel awkward - like he was some loser boyfriend from a small town who married his girlfriend straight out of high school.

"You're doing it again," Aki said softly, poking at his cheek with a soft smile. "You're overthinking. It's okay - we're fine. No one's bothered us so far. Let's enjoy the moment, okay?"

She pulled away from the hug, smiling up at him. For a second, he could imagine that there was no one in the world but the two of them. The lights colored her, bouncing the reds and greens and blues everywhere, and her cheeks were a bright pink even in this light. She stuck her hand out to him, and he took it. And he knew she was right, and he let go of all of the weight he'd been carrying.

They could just be.

Bikini Bod - goshdangronpa - Dangan Ronpa Series [Archive of Our Own]

I hope you don't mind, danggirlronpa, that you'll still be getting tagged for a series that should've ended last week. But who would mind more pekobuki? This beach episode sees Ibuki asking an increasingly flustered Peko for her opinion on breast implants - the technology of the prompt. Enjoy, and be advised that although the fic is not sexually explicit, it comes close.

🥏 TXF Fic Rec #15: "Strangers and the Strange Dead" by Kipler

Today’s fic is a must-read classic, an extraordinary piece that is so original, unique, intelligent, and brilliantly executed that it lingers in your memory. It makes great use of a third-party narrator and creates this eerie, atmospheric small town where mysterious strangers suddenly reappear. It begins with one of the best opening lines I’ve ever read in fanfics and ends with a dynamite twist that will make you gasp. So good.

(*It was written midway through the original run of Season 7 before ‘Requiem’ so everything happens after that point in canon should be disregarded.)

It's so faint at first that he can believe it isn't there. The sensations, flickering at the edge of his vision, the way his body begins to move like he's had another decade of training.

He has cravings for food he's never tasted, nostalgia for places he's never been.

But it's not a big deal, right?

Even when he sees Acre, feels trapped in Altaïr's body as he lives out his life, it's not a big deal. It's just a dream.

If he tells himself it isn't real, it won't be. Right now, there are more important things to do.

“George?” it was Lucy, gazing curiously at him with a little smile. He smiled back without really thinking about it. He loved seeing Lucy like this, calm and happy. She was beautiful, the soft light from outside casting a spotlight on her as if nobody else in the world mattered. In a way, that was true; Lockwood and Lucy were the two most important people to George, and he hoped it stayed that way.

“Yeah Luce?” he replied.

or, the trio have a conversation, comfort each other a bit and just have a day of peace

What would she want for Christmas?

Yusei had little experience with buying gifts. Normally he'd make gifts - usually through welding or some delicate paper stars... perhaps even a simple game he'd programmed. This wasn't like before, though. He'd had a relationship before, sure, but it wasn't like this. This was something that filled him and made him feel oh so alive. He didn't dread coming home - he hadn't known that was possible before. So whatever he got Aki for Christmas had to be perfect, like she was. Perhaps it had been a mistake, however, to ask Jack to subtly ask for her wishlist. Really - that was on him. He'd known Jack for most of his life. "She insisted she didn't need anything," Jack had said, looking almost angry about it. "No matter what I said! I don't know why you don't just ask her directly. Why do I have to be your messenger?"

Really, he should've expected as much. Aki had said similar whenever he asked what she wanted - she didn't need anything. Sometimes it was complete with a 'I'm just happy you didn't die in the Ark Cradle; I don't need anything else' which didn't really help with his guilt about that. The look on all his friends' faces when he'd come back home alive had been enough to last him a lifetime. "Jack, what exactly did you say to her?"

"I said that people are going to want to buy her gifts for the holidays and she should just make it easier for the rest of us," Jack said, rolling his eyes as if this was the obvious thing to do. He crossed his arms, huffing. "She had the nerve to say all of us being in one place for the holidays would make her happy. Can you believe her?"

Yusei  just sighed. "Did Carly manage any better?"

"No," Jack replied, and then he smirked. "But I at least know what Carly wants for Christmas."

With that, Jack left before Yusei could show him a different kind of "deck the halls" leaving him to settle for throwing his wrench at the wall.

"I tried, man," Crow said over the phone. "All she would say is that if we're all home for the holidays, she'd be happy. How do you think I felt? I'm stuck here in Austria for this tournament. It's not enough that I hear it from the kids and Sherry, I gotta hear it from Aki too?"

Currently, Sherry was watching over the orphanage, and she was overwhelmed by it. Normally she had Crow around, but well, when Crow was offered this chance, he had to take it. At the time, Sherry had expressed her sincere support but Yusei got the feeling that sometimes she deeply regretted not taking Martha's offer to take over. Yusei decided to not mention any of this to Crow. "Sorry, she just misses you," Yusei said, glancing behind him at the door in case Aki walked in. "We all do. Are you at least winning?"

"Yeah, absolutely," Crow said with a laugh. "These Austrian Duelists don't have shit on me, you know. Tell Aki to not worry - I'll try to be home for the holidays. Hey! I guess that covers a gift for her! Ah, shit, I need to go. Later!"

The line went dead, and Yusei frowned. He wasn't sure how he felt about Crow finding a gift for Aki before he did.

"I think you're taking this too seriously, Yusei," Luka said from the bench, tilting her head and kicking her feet. She'd tossed her book bag on the floor, and was mainly just watching him fix Lua's Duel Board from  yet another wreck. No matter how many times Yusei had told Lua to be careful, he kept managing to get into some pretty bad accidents. Yusei dreaded the day that Lua was old enough for a proper Duel Runner - he could only imagine the injuries. "I'm sure Aki will like whatever you get her."

"You don't know what she wants either, do you?"

Luka let out a frustrated sigh, flopping backwards. "She said that I shouldn't worry about what to get any of you guys! What am I supposed to do with that?" She sat back up, staring intensely at Yusei. "Are you going to tell me what you want for Christmas?"

Yusei grinned, shaking his head. "I don't need you to get me anything, Luka," he said, checking the balance on the board. Was there a way he could ensure that Lua could at least get into fewer accidents? Besides just outright taking the Duel Board away from him, anyway. "All I need from the two of you is to not get hurt."

"Ugh, you're worse than Aki," she groaned, rolling her eyes. "She told me to not tell you this, but she would give me her wish list in exchange for yours." She got up, storming over to him with a glare. "So are you going to hand it over or am I just not going to be able to get you Aki's wish list?"

So she was playing the same game he was. It snapped into place - why no one else seemed to be able to get her wish list out of her. The problem with this, however, is that Yusei genuinely had nothing he wanted for Christmas besides seeing Aki happy and knowing his friends were safe and sound. He frowned at this, staring at the Duel Board but not really focused on it anymore. "I don't have anything I want," he admitted. "I just want my friends to be happy."

Luka stomped her foot. "You and Aki were made for each other," she yelled before storming off.

He supposed that was fair. That just left one problem: what was he going to get Aki for Christmas?

Aren’t you Andrew’s kid? by FreakingOutGirl

Rating: G

Word Count: 2,036

Time Period: Pro Exy

POV: OC

Summary:

“You are Andrew’s kid?” the coach blurted, clearly shocked with the revelation to which the kid nodded. The man’s eyes flew to his black hair and blue eyes. “How old are you?” “Ten…” Luke answered, seeing the man make his mental math and reach a wrong conclusion. Luke wondered if he should say the word adoption, but he was having too much fun messing with the coach to actually clarify the situation. He saw the man murmur teenage pregnancy and smirked. Or In which Neil and Andrew adopt a kid, Luke. And no one knows about it until one day. Part of a series about the lives of Neil, Andrew, Luke and with occasional appearances from the Foxes

Comments: I really enjoyed this fic. I thought Andrew and Neil's characterizations were quite on brand, and it was funny too!

The hoodie is old even when they take him. It's just an article of clothing, something he shrugged on because it was chilly that day.

Altaïr's robes are light. Lighter than someone would think from looking at them. They were designed for movement, and it shows.

Desmond can remember the first time Altaïr wore them. He can remember the scent of the cloth, its texture, the way Altaïr's heart swelled with pride.

Muscle memory guides his hands, the hood easily covering his head. It feels comfortable, easy.

When he moves, he feels the phantom sensation of robes against his legs.
