GavvPare! Vol.5 (Hino Yusuke)

-Post recording is going smoother-

Ever since transforming into Kamen Rider Valen in episode 6, I've gradually been getting more exposure to post recording. I think the most important thing when performing with your voice is "how much you can expand your imagination and make it come out realistically," but obviously, I've never experienced hitting or being hit by someone before, so I always feel that it's difficult. Just looking at his specs, Valen isn't one of the strongest Riders in history (laughs). Nevertheless, I want to be able to express the strength of his feelings to stand tall and never give up, as well as the unrefined coolness that's typical of Hanto. As I perform, I keep the advice I previously received from Director Sugihara and the other Directors in mind, that being, "The opponent you're fighting is a monster, so just taking a punch will feel like having a truck slam right into you," and with that, filming's gone more smoothly.

My performance with Ota Yuno-chan, who played Kirari in episode 9, also left an impression on me. In particular, the cool scene where I helped out and encouraged Kirari was kind of embarrassing (laughs). Still, Yuno-chan has much more experience than I do, and there were many parts where she was the one pulling me along. There were parts of her that were cute to watch, and there were parts that made me feel like I couldn't lose to her, so I think we were able to create those scenes through a friendly rivalry.

In episode 10, Shouma and I work together for the first time in order to find the missing cake shop and Kirari-chan. Personally, I'm still embarrassed by the scene at the end, so I'm alittle worried that I'll be grinning when the broadcast airs (laughs).

Q: What's an unexpected side of Miyabe-san?

A: The first time we met, she had black hair, and I thought she was a rather quiet person since she was reserved and didn't talk much, but just recently, possibly due to taking after Sachika, I'm starting to get a glimpse of her gyaru mindset. There are times where she and Hide will gang up and tease me (laughs), so I can feel the gap in her playful side!

Off Shot: We had alot of fun talking about school and work while waiting at the fountain, and even though we were filming in a situation where if we missed the timing we'd have had to wait for the fountain to go off again, she was so confident in spite of that, so I may have been the one who was most nervous. _

BakuDAYS Vol.17 (Soma Satoru)

-Genba has a place to return to-

Right now, I'm still impressed by episode 27, in which Genba leaves Boonboomger. I think it was a time when we could clearly see Genba's kindness and feelings for his friends, as he said things like, "I don't want to get my friends involved with Disrace," and "I don't want to hurt my friends." When he first left Boonboomger, I don't think Genba had the option of returning to his friends. However, in episode 32, where the ToQgers make an appearance, after hearing the words of Nagahama Shin-san's Akira, his feelings that he had a place to return to grew stronger. Personally, episode 32 was a learning experience for me as an actor. I went into it with the feeling of, "I'll take what I can from Shison Jun-san's performance!"

Genba's a character with a sad past on the planet Bureki, and a strong desire for revenge against his enemies, so he has many lines that are used as foreshadowing. Typically, I try not to think too much about it, but when I read the script and think, "This line seems like it could be foreshadowing…!," I try to give more importance to it when performing. I've always had the impression that Genba was calm, and that we didn't know what he's thinking, so when I saw his intense anger toward Disrace, I was surprised that even Genba could show that much emotion.

Starting from episode 36, the story will enter the final lap. In regards to Genba, after defeating his rival Disrace, I think he's reached a turning point, but there are even stronger enemies that'll soon appear. We're all putting alot of energy into the roles we play, so I hope you'll look forward to seeing how the Boonboomgers will deal with their enemies!

Q: What does Soma-san think Miyazawa-san's "bakuage point" is?

A: Until Zawa-kun joined Boonboomger, I was the oldest, so I didn't really have anyone to discuss things with. As such, since Zawa-kun joined, I've been consulting with him on a variety of things, including our performance. He really is a dependable big bro! (laughs).

BakuageSHOT: Finally, Genba's back!! During the time that Genba was out of Boonboomger, I rarely saw everyone, including in our private time, so now that he's back, I myself felt like it was great to have friends!

Not Into Guys (Wanda Maximoff x reader)

⚠️Trigger warning⚠️: Assault and attempted um.. bad things 😬😬

Also swearing

Lots of unhappies.

But fear not! Badass Wanda to the rescue!

(I wrote this in like five minutes- so please don't judge the quality 😅)

...

You sighed as you looked around the bar, only half paying attention as Wanda rambled next to you.

"He's running a bit late, but he should be here soon" Wanda rested a hand on your lower back and chills shot up and down your spine.

"What? Wh-who?" you jumped lightly causing a small laugh from the brunette next to you.

"The guy I was telling you about" She smiled and bit her lip drawing your eyes right to her gorgeous, tempting lips. "Anyway he's cute- even to me. I think you'll like him"

Wanda continued on but all you could focus on was how the lights reflected in her mesmerizing hazel eyes, the way she bit her lip and how nice it would be to be spending tonight at home curled up on the couch watching movies with Wanda.

"Why are you doing this to me?" you groaned softly, barely realizing you'd said it aloud. Wanda just rolled her eyes with a smirk, and oh the things that smirk did to you.

"Because you've been single too long and I want to see you happy. Don't be so dramatic this is for your own good." She scolded before ordering you both shots.

"Maybe I'm happy single??" you offered wondering how you could get her to stop trying to set you up.

"We both know that's not true. You just don't want to stop pining over that one guy you always talk about. The one you claim you could never have." Wanda raised an eyebrow at you and you sighed in near defeat.

She was partially right.

Except it wasn't a guy. It was her.

"Okay but I'm already telling you I'm not gonna like him. Why don't we just go home and order pizza? We can watch whatever you want and drink as much wine as humanly possible."

"Tempting. But no." Wanda grinned and you let your shoulders slump in defeat. This was going to suck. Big time.

...

Half an hour later, this guy Luke or whatever his name was finally showed up. He was tall, muscular and overall pretty good looking.

But not your type.

He smiled and his eyes crinkled up making his dimples that much more noticable. He was obviously the type of guy any girl would swoon over.

Just not you.

"Hi, I'm sorry I'm late. You must be Wanda's friend." His voice was calming and genuine. you couldn't help but smile back as you shook his hand. "I'm Luke"

"Yeah. Hi. It's nice to meet you." You answered politely and Wanda grinned looking between the two of you.

"I'm just gonna skedaddle" Wanda winked and rushed off towards the bar again. Leaving you with Luke.

"So..." You trailed off awkwardly, not excited to spend another night pretending to give another uninteresting guy a chance.

"Not gonna lie I was kinda expecting Wanda to bring someone...." He trailed off in the same manner as you did and scratched his neck.

"Scarier? More closed off? More like a shield agent?" you chuckled as he nodded. "Wanda and I have been friends since we met, despite the lifestyle differences we've always been able to find plenty of things in common. She's like my soulmate, only... She's my best friend."

"I get that. I'm just glad you're cute and uh- not that intimidating" Luke chuckled uncomfortably "not that dating someone you're intimidated by isn't okay, it's just not my thing."

You nodded half-heartedly as you watched Wanda dance, without a single care. Your eyes scanned her body and you couldn't help but sigh at the way she moved.

Fuck- fifteen minutes in and You were already distracted

"Do you.... Wanna dance?" Luke grinned at you, noticing your longing stare.

"Sure" You smiled your biggest fake smile and let him lead you to the floor.

Once you stopped walking you started swaying your hips to the beat, you let the music take over and tried not to gag when Luke put his hands on your hips swaying behind you.

You tried to ignore the pit of nerves bundling in your stomach as he pulled your waist towards him. You gasped as he spun you around and smashed his lips on yours in a hungry, lust filled kiss.

He pulled your body flush against his own and you gasped again as you felt a large bulge. (Lord help my gay ass the fuck am I writing?!? I'm sorry y'all😬)

Luke used your momentary shock to slip his tongue into the kiss pulling you impossibly closer. You couldn't move. You were frozen in place while his hands ran rampant, exploring your body.

When you finally regained mobility you pushed him away with a groan. He smirked and leaned down to whisper in your ear, licking the shell of it.

"Why don't we take this to my place, princess?" He was trying way to hard to sound sexy and it made you gag.

"I-i'm sorry I'm- I'm not" You stumbled over your words, unsure of what to say. In all honesty the only thing you were sure of is that you didn't want to be leaving with him.

"Oh I get it" he growled as his whole demeanor changed and he suddenly looked more aggressive. "You like to tease right? You flirt with me all night, act all friendly then after I'm all riled up and ready you leave."

"N-no. I'm just not-" your voice was shaking and so were your hands. He was scaring you. You turned to just walk away when he grabbed your wrist tight. It hurt.

"That's not how this works babe, you're going to finish what you started even if I have to take you in the bathroom" he pulled you harshly out of the crowd.

"Stop it!" you yelled trying desperately to escape his grasp "you're hurting me"

Luke grunted gruffly and continued dragging you out of the building. It was like everyone was too drunk to notice as you helplessly called out for help until your voice gave out.

You reached his car and he pushed you up against it, leaning down and nibbling on your neck. All you could do was whimper and try to push him away with all your might.

you had almost given up hope when you heard someone shout, then a thud.

Luke's eyes rolled back as he fell to the asphalt. With him no longer holding you in place, your knees gave out and you collapsed next to him. You looked up with teary eyes to see Wanda, her eyes glowing red and her body language exuding anger. Looking hot as fuck.

Wanda dropped to the ground and rushed to your side. She wrapped her arms around you and lifted you up with a surprising amount of ease. You immediately flung your arms around her neck and held on for dear life as you bawled into her neck.

"Wa-wanda he- he was gonna-" Yoy cut yourself off with a sob as Wanda shushed you and began stroking your hair gently.

"It's okay, he won't be touching a single hair on your head now" Wanda cooed and you buried your face further into her neck. "I'm sorry I didn't get to you sooner"

"You're here. That's what matters." you sighed as you pulled away and Wanda wrapped an arm around your waist.

"Let's go home? Okay?"

You nodded and she called a Taxi to take you to the Avengers tower. The whole ride you were silent. You laid your head in Wanda's lap and she ran her fingers through your hair. You let your tears fall freely. You weren't necessarily sobbing, or really even crying. The tears were just coming and you didn't have the energy to hold them back.

You finally reached the tower and Wanda helped you out of the car taking you through the all too familiar path to her apartment. You made your way inside and you smiled at all the pictures of Pietro, you loved him to death. He was the only flirty guy you could be with for more than five seconds and not get tired of. He was the one who switched mission schedules with Wanda so the two of you could go out.

"What's on your mind?" Wanda's sweet voice brought you back to reality.  Her eyes were full of worry and guilt.

"I'm trying not to think too much about it." You whispered and Wanda's face softened further.

"I'm sorry. I never should've tried to set you up. You told me you weren't into it and it's my fau-"

"Don't you dare blame yourself" You cut her off wrapping your arms around her waist and resting your head on her shoulder. "It's not your fault the guy decided to be an asshole. He seemed okay, and you just wanted to see me happy. I'm just glad you care."

"You have no idea."

Wanda sighed softly and pulled you closer to her, leading you to the couch where she sat you down, placing herself right next to you.

"I'm sorry but I have to ask. Why are you so closed off to the idea of dating? Is it because of things like this? Or are you just anti commitment? What is it?" Wanda sounded resigned and you felt a pang of guilt.

"Wanda it's not that I don't want to date. Or that I don't like commitment... Let me put it this way. Pietro is the only boy I'll ever even slighty like. I adore him. He's smart, and sweet. But most of all he reminds me of all the things I love about you. I love you, and I appreciate your efforts but I'm just not into guys." You sighed feeling the nerves in your stomach dissipate. "I've never said that out loud before. I didn't even know if it was true. Not until recently."

Wanda watched you ramble with wide eyes. A small smirk forming on her lips that you didn't quite notice until it was a full grin.

"I know I shouldn't have been so nervous about telling you but I just - you make me so goddamn nervous Wanda and it's not even a little bit easier with you smiling like that-- why are you smiling?" You raised an eyebrow as Wanda chuckled slowly moving closer. Her hand, that was resting on your knee, had found its way to your upper thigh.

"Because you basically just told me I have a chance" Wanda cupped your cheek with one hand pulling you close until your lips were inches apart. Before she closed the gap she hesitated, and spoke just above a whisper. "you should probably tell me now if I'm reading this wrong. Because I've loved you since forever and I don't mean it platonically... I can't keep that a secret anymore."

Your eyes moved from Wanda's eyes to her lips and back again. You didn't know what to say. All this time you'd been hiding your feelings because you figured Wanda would never feel the same, and now she was right there telling you she loved you.

Wanda let out a defeated sigh and pulled away slowly.

"You- you don't have to feel the same. I understand if you want me to leave you alone. I'll give you some time." Wanda stood and started to walk away when you grabbed her hand, she turned to look at you slowly more tears threatening to fall. "I'm sorry about-"

"Wanda Maximoff." you cut her off earning a shocked, confused look from the brunette. "Shut the fuck up and kiss me already"

Before she could respond you stood and pulled Wanda toward yourself, catching her hips and pressing your lips to her's. You felt her smile into the kiss as you pulled her closer, wrapping your arms around her.

Colours flashed behind your eyelids as time seemed to be slowing down.

This was what you never understood before. What you didn't know you needed.

This. Is what love feels like.
