Toto needs to visit Therapist.
To answer the question, yes, I think Toto has an extremely unhealthy tendency to sacrifice himself. I guess it stems from his low self-esteem. When I look at Toto's many actions in terms of saving people, to me it seems like more than just a desire to solve cases.
Because the desire to solve cases was there even before Ron. And for some reason, most of Toto's actions on his subconscious level are connected with self-harm in some way. Like, his instant reaction, regardless of his instincts for self-preservation, must come from somewhere, and the very fact that at the sight of danger, his feelings aimed at saving himself fade away in the name of others, it's kinda bad.
His actions, to one degree or another, despite saving others and good intentions, are equally aimed to self- distraction.
Toto never care about himself ( I'm talking about his thoughts about himself) This is probably most clearly seen during the cruise arc. When he was tied up, put to sleep and the first thing when he wakes up in his head was about Ron. But Not about even one thought about himself.
To me, this is a giant red flag that something is wrong. Considering Toto's habit of overworking himself to be useful as shown in the early chapters where he literally sleeps in his office. Moreover, his lack of any social life, and active workaholism, to help others BUT not himself. This screams that he has an unhealthy way of thinking where he puts himself last, above everyone else. He is ready to buy his grandmother something expensive, but as can be seen in the 1st case about the hot springs, he mainly relies on his salary. And this could be attributed to his kindness and good qualities, but it simply screams of a broken psyche. There is no healthy egoism in him. And well this is bad.
Also recalling our discussion about his upbringing, Toto was taught not to show much emotion in public.
However, in my opinion, sometimes all this stupidity seems very much like a fake, and his true personality is what we saw in his neutral frames. Well, I don’t believe that it’s not fake when one second he just looks blankly at the mention of Kei, and the next he’s already laughing.
And the fact that he and Ron don’t have the healthiest relationship (This is strictly how I see them and I'm not saying that they are bad) is a topic for a separate post.
Also lmao now i have my own tag there! 🤣 It feels like we're on a show or at an interview. 🤭
Ah, that’s an interesting take.
I mean Toto doesn’t have a lot of friends. And he’s probably damaged too for all we know. With the emergence of Ron he has something to live for. And it might be that he is fighting with and for Ron to hell with his own life, yeah, might not sound healthy, and it could destroy him once Ron decides to leave him, but I don’t think AA is so heartless to put Toto in this situation. Apart from each other they have accumulated other friends too along the way. So maybe, just maybe it would not come to this.
Heh! Created a hashtag for you. 😊

You’re one of the only one of my mutuals (that I know of) who’s a Holmes fan. I was curious if you ever saw Elementary and what your thoughts on it were? I’ve been rewatching it recently since the entire series is now on Hulu and I was never able to finish it when it aired bc of all the nonsense that went on the last couple seasons.
I personally never liked BBC Sherlock (I won’t go into it here), but I did overall enjoy how Elementary brought Holmes and his world into the modern age, and I especially liked Jonny Lee Miller’s portrayal of Sherlock.
Anyway, I was curious.
Heya! I saw a couple of episodes of Elementary. But it didn’t really register with me. You’ve guessed it I was and sometimes still am a fan of Sherlock BBC.
Although they gender-bent Dr. Watson and Moriarty, the concept didn’t appeal to me.
I don’t know why. For a while I wanted to watch the Elementary episodes on Prime Amazon until I forgot and the episodes were no longer available anymore.
The BBC version for me personifies the modern version of what should be SH and JW are. The series could have been better if not for the ego of the show runners.
Apologies I don’t have any opinion on Elementary.

I have to ask. What do you think Boa Hancock’s reaction would be when she learns that Crocodile is Luffy’s birth mother? I imagine she would have a huge inner conflict about him being a man but also being Luffy’s mother so she has to be nice to him 😂
I chose the silly option!
Tumblr media
Considering how she reacted when it was revealed that Dragon was Luffy's dad, she probably won't care much about Crocodile either!

Yes they are! Max the babysitter is seen stuffed into a shadow Freddy suit near the end of the movie
So in return, it’s fair to say she’s Shadow Freddy

Hi quick question about the host au
Does lila think marinette is being legit haunted?
Because for some reason i could see host tikkis powers (which i think act up with high emotions because of that one post in the manynette au) acting up around her out of anger
yup. I actually have a chunk of fanfic written up for the AU that really goes into it, that I never finished nor posted, and now I'm considering posting it as a standalone just for fun

I see your old man Tech. And I raise you, Tech and Phee together.
Ohhh challenge accepted! They’re just having a nice relaxing afternoon on Pabu enjoying the sun and being alive and happy and old together. Perhaps they just got back from an adventure?

Please tell me I'm not the only one who wonders why Toto is so strong. Like, this really bothers me because a person “who just runs a lot” can’t just damn catch up with a professional killer or support his own weight + the weight of adult with one hand. It doesn't make sense. Of course, this may have been done for the sake of the plot, but it’s just strange.
Tumblr media
This detective was just able to cover quite a long distance in just a few seconds, plus push Winter away. At the same time, he began to move when the chandelier was already falling. This is especially course, considering that the people standing right under her barely had time to move away from there.

Toto I have so many questions for you...
I read a few months ago when researching how to be admitted as a police officer in Tokyo that one must prove that they are trained enough.
It’s written on paper so I am not sure how it is in practice.
So I presume that Toto worked hard to be accepted. I mean, he can swim really well. Ron might be faster than him, but when adrenaline kicks in he practically can do what he wants. He can keep up.
So my head canon is that he trains in the gym but not that much of a gung-ho with weights and all, bc he’s not that heavy and muscled.
Also, like what Ron said Toto just dives in to save somebody. That’s his ethos. So yes, the other person’s welfare is much more important than his own life. It’s his attitude and his way of life. Not bc of religiosity, no, but he’s spiritual and all.

I just wanted to thank you for always posting the “behind the scenes” kinds of things for kuro and other media, like the stuff for the new anime you shared today. I would miss a lot of this if it wasn’t for you and I appreciate it a lot <3
Ohhhh… thank you for this. I love to look at pretty things, but I also would like to know the reasons behind those things. Kuroshitsuji, for example, has so many important facts (historical or otherwise) and so many creative people behind the series. It would be cruel not to mention them as well and other fan-related things.
It is so lovely to receive this from you. (Was feeling depressed before tbh.)

Would you ever think to draw Luffy with longer hair? Like even just slightly longer than nornal. Would it be as wild and uncontrollable as Dragon's seems to be? Would it instead be silky like Crocodile's is with more curls?
Tumblr media
(I'm kinda art blocked at the moment but I tried doodling a bit...!)
I don't know what would be better - wild Monkey D. hair or having hair similar to Crocodile~ The "spikyness" of his hair seems to suggest Dragon but it gets a bit wavy when his hair is wet, unless that's just an anime thing.)

Hello I love your art!!! I was reading through your changeling au and Felix mentions that fae are creatures of mirth. They literally need attention to survive. But what kind of attention? I guess I'm wondering because Adrien has been in the public eye for a while now, but has been personally neglected for even longer. What does that mean for him? Is he starving? Is he in danger of dying? Does he even know it? (I assume not given he doesn't even know he's Fae).
If he is starving / in danger of starving who is the first to realize this?
it depends on the mirth, on the attention, on what it is they seek. Without making things too complicated - I don't like to define everything into neat little boxes after all, there's fun in nuance - Felix is just explaining from his experience, the Fae he was with tended to be "entertained" by certain aspects of their playing, which was the mirth that kept them relevant. Relevancy more than anything is really what keeps their wheels greased.
In Adrien's case though, the reason he's cloying for so many names and to have so many thralls and attendants is because he SHOULD be a more social creature and has been kept woefully alone. He is kinda starving in the way a fae starves - he's relevant, but only in an image his father constructs OF him, which means it isn't REALLY him - and he has no one to play with. No friends, no lovers, and no rivals, makes a very sad fae

I AM SPINNING I AM PACING I AM FULL ON FROLICKING IM SO EXCITED
@d1sc0rd1a THANK U FOR THESE TAGS
Tumblr media
okayokayokayokay so pretty much all of these questions will be Officially Answered properly in the character design/intro pages im working on but also i am physically vibrating with excitement about the fact that you noticed all these details and i have very little self control so! lore dump time!!!
(minor tw for mentions of leos self-harm/self-destructive anxious behaviors and unhealthy coping skills)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- mikey does indeed have curly fur! i believe he would be considered a 'rex' rat (pictured on the left) for this trait? though the curls can be more easily seen on mice (pictured on the right). or, at least it seems that way. have not delved too deeply into the details of rodent genes and husbandry, but id assume its the same sort of mutation considering curly haired mice are also referred to as rex sometimes? either way hes a extra floofy bby 🧡
Tumblr media
-as for raphie, unfortunately being more fluff and less shell than the average rapheal comes with its downsides. especially if you and your brothers occasionally encounter things like territorial dogs, hungry cats, or sewer crocodiles while exploring places ur dad said not supposed to go. (most of his scars will have more ninja related stories, but his ear i think got messed up from something very animal. probably around age 11 ish? old enough to sneak out from dads protection but young enough to not fully know how to handle himself alone against real danger. thankfully his ear injury looks worse than it actually is for the most part, as the damage was largely to the outer ear. his hearing wasnt super affected, except that he now has a bit of a harder time being able to track/pinpoint noises origins if its on his right side.)
Tumblr media
-also yep! dons got some glasses that just clip/rest on the bridge of his nose! theyre mostly just for home use, as they do fall off if hes knocked around. in the field he has some goggles he tends to use (theyre helpful as they have multiple additional functions like heat-imaging, extra zoom/telescoping, and recording capabilities. but also theyll give him headaches if he wears them for too long without breaks). contacts are theoretically also an option but he absolutely hates the sensation of putting them in. so sometimes when hes tired he'll just not bother with either clips or goggles and just squint and struggle. leo hates when he does that lol.
Tumblr media
-speaking of leo, he is def an anxious baby :) he has a few patches of fur missing on his hand cos he has the tendency to tug on it while hes thinking. he yanked and chewed on his own tail a lot when he was younger too, which is why when hes older he usually wears some wraps to cover the scars left from that behavior. he finds those scars specifically to be kinda embarrassing and shameful because they werent from any battle or life-lesson, just his own 'inability to control himself'. all of his brothers have repeatedly called him out on the fact that that is not a healthy way to think about his anxiety or mental health, but leo insists hes fine. hes kinda convinced himself that a proper warrior always has control over his own body* and his own thoughts, thus he should be able to just like willpower-brute-force his way into 'being better'. (this line of thinking pisses raph off so much he has to leave and go hit something)
Splinter also tries to talk him through some of that internalized guilt/shame/everything, but splinters very metaphorical, poetic, and indirect when it comes to talking about Big Things, which combined with how much leo gets caught in his own head, makes it kinda hard to gauge how much these talks actually help
*this is made extra fun considering leos also ftm trans, so he is faced with a body that fundamentally disobeys him perhaps more than the average rat-man.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
-and im still going back and forth between a few species for splinter, but im leaning mostly towards an African Spurred Tortoise! they have these beautiful if kinda subtle geometric shell patterns and are the third largest species of tortoise in the world. the only thing that doesnt fit perfectly with Splints is that (allegedly) their lifespan in captivity is around 50ish years, whereas im p sure Tortoise Splinter is well over 75, probably closer to 90 when the boys are born and hes mutated into Old Man Papa.
but maybe hes just a particularly long lasting African Spurred Tortoise.
the Hamato family has taken very good care of him for many decades after all. :)
(well. until everything all fell apart, that is.....)
