I think Togame would enjoy growing plants and veggies with Umemiya, and they would definitely hold educational classes on the weekends to demonstrate how to tell when you're over/under-watering your plants and how to properly take care of them. They also make big signs that read: "TOMATOES ARE FRUITS TOO" or "BANANA BERRIES ARE FULL OF POTASSIUM"

(˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) Just some added details for this AU from the Furin Trio Week. Will do a proper reference sheet thingy for all of them in the future.

Just some sketches and ideas for now

[queenangst]

one of the things i love about wha is how clearly the magic and ideas the girls learn and have build on top of each other over time. the continuing theme of magic as solutions, and your own spells can be made by adapting what you know into something new.

in one of her first uses of magic, coco uses fabric to sail through the air at the dagda mountains; she later creates the mantle of flight. the air twisting seal she learns to use to pick fruit becomes part of a spell to create rain underneath the sea. agott uses a bird of light to distract people at the river; later, we learn her love for the decorative seals, and her knowledge comes in use to bring people joy, and to help with the curtain leech. every person has their own magic, and everyone's magic connects together to create new things.

no magic is useless; no magic is too small or too basic. no magic is unloved.

Bofurin Parent Hcs 1

It's no surprise Nirei is a doting father. What is a surprise, is how into planning his daughter's birthday parties he is. From the moment she could pick out her own stuff, he's been keeping track of her likes and dislikes. He's also incredibly serious about participation. Even Sakura can't get away without wearing a tiara at the four year old's Princess themed birthday party, complete with live ponies and adorably mismatched tea sets. He's just as serious about his former bofurin member's children's preferences though, making him the perfect person to go to for gift ideas for any occasion. His intel usually comes from overhearing stuff during play dates and even his own children who've learned retaining information like that has its perks.

Umemiya loves to sing, hum, whistle - you name it. Whether he's good is another question. Regardless, he's been singing to his kids since they were in the womb (or at least since they were adopted depending on the preference.) He has his toddlers singing in the car with him, their tiny hands waving to the music as they babble. He's the loudest at every birthday, belting out half decent notes as his kids giggle. When they get older and practice for a play, guess who's reading lines and dueting everything? You got it, this guy. Also voted most likely to do the craziest/messiest crafts and activities with his kids. He has no fear of the clean up. Sticky fingers? He's unfazed. There was a line drawn at one point that scissors had to be handled by adults only though, Umemiya's sudden bald spot on the back of his head making Kotoha nearly pass out laughing.

As I've said before, Kaji is a bit...protective with his kids. His child has a crush? He's got eyes and ears on the ground seeing what's up about this kid. One of those dads that hates new partners his kids bring home and doesn't do a thing to hide it. By the time he's older, he's pretty much kicked the lollipop habit to only needing them 50% of the time. Once his toddlers start asking for them, he buys the sugar-free kids kind, not wanting to give them cavities. Will eat the flavors his kids don't like, especially if they hand it to him. Hiragi's Kaji's chosen godfather and for good reason. When his teenagers get in a fight with their father, they go to Uncle Hiragi for advice, knowing he won't judge them and equally gives them perspective. Little do they know Kaji called him about the same thing a few hours before.

For some reason I think Tsugeura would be a great girl dad. He embraces however girly they want to be while also letting them practice shoulderlock tackles on their stuffed animals. His kids end up having his confidence and persistence, making quite the whirlwind when they're all together. One of those you-can-hear-them-before-you-see-them families. This guy definitely ends up coaching at least one children's sports team - not even necessarily wrestling. Suo shudders to think the day might come where his child wants to play on the soccer team Tsuge coaches if only because he'll be forced to talk to Tsuge at least twice a week for hours at a time but really the team ends up being a great social and physical activity. He has a bad habit of tearing up when a kid gets so much as a scratch or bruise during games/matches though.

[flowers-inverted]

So like... Am I the only one who thinks Suo's introduction was weird? Unless I missed something (not unlikely) he hasn't really made jokes like that since. It makes me wonder if it was just his way of preventing questions about his eye. If maybe he was expecting Sakura to ask invasive questions like others had. It just seems a bit ooc looking back ya know?

I love him (everyone does, apparently, after having looked at this app). He's so sassy and honestly I adore the pettiness. He's definitely one of if not my favorite character (its a close match ok?). So I can't help but wonder about him more! I'm eager to say the least. I wonder if it'll shed some light on this. If his sass comes from a place of trauma I won't be surprised.

[suosage]

he worships chika, and takiishi has been takiishi before endou came along... then it's probably something akin to the joy of creation with sakura? sakura cannot be this sakura without endou, so it should be the exhilaration of having created something beyond his belief, after so long of being takiishi's spectator...?

[theladyofbloodshed]

Majority of art i see of loa with helion has her changing her style to the day court but why must a woman always change and uproot herself to fit the man’s life. Why can’t LoA keep her autumn roots and wear long gowns with full length sleeves of russet and red threaded with gilded leaves?

[emeraldvsociety]

Finished every THR Adult Novel, and I’m devastated 🥲

Spoilers for all current THR Adult Novels and The Battle of Jedha & The Tempest Breaker because I have to get my THOUGHTS out.

-

-

-

Note: My reading order was weird since I was reading with a friend, and she was abroad for a hot second. We read TotJ together, and then I got impatient and jumped into Phase 2 to wait for her. LEAVE ME ALONE IT MADE SENSE AT THE TIME. I obviously don't recommend skipping Phase 2, but it was not detrimental to my reading experience.

TOTJ: This book was masterful. I love, and I mean I LOVE Avar Kriss. The Great Disaster Sequence was incredible, and I think Mr. Soule really did an excellent job of cinematically introducing this universe and setting up the Jedi in their prime. I just WOW the way Avar handled it, the sacrifice everyone went through to protect Hetzal. However, if I’m being honest I kind of forgot the rest of the book. I did a recent reread, and, my HEART, Avar loved Elzar from the start and he just had to go and fuck it up.

-

TRS: I did not like this book despite everyone raving about it. My friend and I both have the consensus that Elzar is just very problematic, but not like in the way that he IS, but in the way that he isn’t. He can be a very inactive character, and when he is being active, he often makes the wrong choices. I am currently rereading it to find what people like about it so much. I do not dislike Elzar Mann (obviously). I think he is an expertly crafted character

I think from the get-go, I was pissed off at him for revealing he tried to kiss Avar in this public setting where she had just gotten a very big work promotion. I get the Battle of Valo was cool & all, but I genuinely do not remember the key details of the battle or what the stolen lightsaber is about. Everyone always raves about the plot, but I remember thinking that Valo was just a massive distraction. Yes, obviously, I loved Stellan, and I'm sure on my reread, I'll come to appreciate his and Elzar's interactions a lot more.

-

Convergence: People do not like this one?? I think Convergence is my favorite. Now, I have reread Convergence in its entirety. The first read, I was not that happy until the core four were all together and letting their personalities bounce off each other. I LOVED Axel. I would only refer to him as the gambling addict. He had so much personality, and Gella foiled him so well; it was glorious. I did not like the Xiri & Phan-tu plot line when I intentionally read it, but on my second read, I was like, “Why did I not like this??” I love them.

-

TFS: I love Stellan. Then I did not like Stellan. But then I had to mourn Stellan. Unfortunately, Stellan’s death was spoiled on Twitter years ago for me, so it definitely had less impact, but my friend was DESTROYED. Now, I will say this, TFS would have been 100% more effective if I had read phase 1 of the comics because I was VERY upset about how Stellan was treating Avar, and I felt like I had very little context. I loved the pacing and the stakes, and I legitimately felt like I was falling myself at times. Gloriously written and probably my second favorite Claudia Gray book.

-

EOD: Alright. I love Avar Kriss. Her journey and growth through this book REALLY sold me. She felt so raw, real, and devastated the whole time that I cried with her when she got Elzar’s message. I know Stellan is “the golden child” in their little trio, but I can’t help but picture her as the golden child of this era entirely. I could talk for hours about her and how much weight she carries. Every scene with her felt so impactful, special, and growing. I’m not anywhere near close to thirty, but I felt comforted that there is this representation of growth still in your thirties, like I somehow needed to see it.

…Elzar was hamletting the whole time. I’m glad he got a message to her, but I really want him to have more impact in the future. Also, I’m not trying to exclude Bell from my notes, but I think his story is pretty great, if a smidge formulaic. He’s likable, growing, and on the path to becoming great. Elzar & Avar are more messy and commentatable (made-up word).

-

TotF: I was PISSED Bell didn’t have a POV. I think that’s what bothered me the MOST about this book. I know Burry is like Bell’s bff and all but I wanted BELL. Give me back his POV. Also, whatever Burry was doing was lowkey forgettable. I’m not sure if I really vibe with the blight threat. Elzar did something, I guess, but he was def still Hamletting. Avar gobbled every scene she was in. I do think he had major growth when he rejected Avar at first. I was proud of him for being self-aware because, in TRS, I was lowkey tired of his lusting for her. That whole book, he was like, “I wish I was fucking Avar rn, please, please, please, where is she” After she said no, like, c’mon, I get those are his thoughts, but I was tired of it. I think it is incredibly good NOW, like, “Oh, before he had uncontrollable lust, and now it has evolved into something healthy.” And obviously, if I want two characters to be together, I’m glad one wanted the other so badly sexually, but even in my reread of ToTJ, Avar LOVED him so positively and selflessly. She puts her reputation on the line to get him promoted because, yes, he’s a friend, but she LOVES that man. Wtvr, I’m glad they’re practicing, and I’m glad they killed a Nameless together s/o Elzar for the killing blow. I’ll give him that. Also, I love Xylan.

-

The Tempest Breaker: My first audio drama EVER, and I LOVED it. I gobbled it up in like a day during a roadtrip. Like I mentioned previously, I haven’t read the comics, so I had to do some Googling for Keeve & all that. Even without vital context, I think the plot & presentation spoke for themselves. Obviously, I’m going to comment on Elzar’s insane behavior. I would have slapped him. I know Avar was acting emotionally, but idgaf she was right. However... I found it very in character. Even if I was unhappy with him (again), he was there to balance her when she needed it. Avar needed that calm. She grew so much within two scenes, and I love her sm. Also??? Lourna's ex-gf lusting over Avar like crazy in THAT dress?? I need concept art??? Why do we have concept art of Lourna dancing with Marchion but none of Avar in the hot dress?? This is discrimination against wuh luh wuh tbh.

I’m actually writing a companion fanfic about Elvar to this audio drama rn not to promote, but if you want my full thoughts… I’ll let that fic speak for itself.

Also, huge fan of Tey. I'll be on the lookout for the Phase 2 comics for him. My one criticism is that Marc reads Avar with a british accent, and Avar's actress here is American... Yeah, I sometimes had a bit of trouble clarifying Quin and Avar's voices.

LOVED IT. Thanks Mr. Scott. Srry I didn't love TRS. I didn’t gaf about Lourna before, but now I do. Great! (Yes, I did not listen to the Tempest Runner).

-

The Battle of Jedha: I listened to this after my reread of Convergence. I have SO many questions. First of all, why did they pick JEDHA? Second, why weren’t Xiri & Phan-tu there?? I know Master Sun was like, "Newlyweds have more important things to be doing," except no they don't what are you talking about. Third, why couldn’t they just Zoom for the treaty at the rate things were going so long?? No more questions: only love for Master Sun. Oh, and the pious droid. Apparently, people like Marda Ro, but I found her actually insufferable. She yelled at that kid for giving Master Shoh a flower, the kid cried, and then Marda was like, "jk I'm glad you gave her that flower." ...girl make up your mind and leave the child alone.

And before I get jumped, no, I did not read PoD. I read the Wookieepedia Summary because the audiobook for PoD was thirty-two dollars. (I'm sorry, Mrs. Gratton; I bought a paperback and the audiobook of TotF please forgive me).

This was definitely way more overstimulating than Tempest Breaker in terms of ...everything. It took me way longer to get through. I liked it. It genuinely felt like I was there.

Cataclysm: I haven’t crashed out about a character this hard since Jaime Lannister in GøT season 8. Axel Greylark committed what felt like personal betrayals against me. I screamed for his release. I cried when I saw him so sick, and I cheered when Gella got him out. I begged for him to be fixed, and not even Gella could. He left her when she was hurt, and I lost it. He hurt my Gella. I should have recorded myself listening to this. It was stubbing my toe over and over and then hearing, “Jaime. My name’s Jaime,” echoing around me. He devastated me. I’ve never been so livid in my life. I prayed he would change, but then I prayed he would get on his knees whimpering for forgiveness only to be slapped by Gella. I got embarrassed when Gella kept trying to reason with him. Then I cheered when he FINALLY, and I mean FINALLY, did the right thing. My delusional ass knew it all along!!! I'm appalled that there's not more content of Gella & Axel out there. I know, I know, I know, he's toxic and inexcusable.

...BUT WE ALL NEED SOME TOXICITY IN OUR LIVES!! It's okay in moderation, I swear I swear I swear. Plus, he said he was sorry, and in his head he said he loved her omg redemption YAY! (I'm still delusional).

…the child character was so annoying. Also, Xiri & Phan-tu were driving me crazy, please, for the love of GOD, say ‘I love you’ when you hang up the phone on your spouse. I wasn't the biggest fan of Yaddle tbh. I was destroyed whenever Master Sun broke his femur that like lowkey set me off. I'm still crashing out over Axel; why did he DO that...

ALSO??? The way Dr. Kang writes battles is INSANE; that woman has so much strength there.

-

Final Notes:

I am not sure how to feel about Lina Soh. They def do not put enough focus on her. She came in very strong, but I can't help but feel that she's been diluted and is lacking the power she needs. Chancellor Greylark felt like she carried a lot of weight in P2. Although maybe that's because it was so pivotal to Axel's character that she "cared more about her work than him," but I need more Soh. I need like at least four POV chapters of her in Trials. Is her son still missing?? What is going on with that?? My main actual issue with THR is the lack of politicking tbh. Mr. Soule opened so strongly with this epic cinematic golden age of the Republic, and yet I see very little *democratic* promotion.

I did not talk about Marchion Ro because omfg that man is crazy. I am a little worried they're giving him the (show) Ramsay Bolton treatment, making him too invincible and horrendous. Like, when he kicked that cat?? Insane behavior. I'm glad that Ghirra is there to play the complex/conflicted villain as a foil. I'm not saying Marchion isn't complex, but his main attribute (for me) is that he is crazy & evil. I think it works logistically because he is surrounded by people fit to govern when he is off being crazy. I don't know. I love his whole setup. Every chapter in ToTF had me being like, "More! More Marchion!" then it would cut to Graf, and I would be like, "You know what? Hell yeah!" Also, I hate Ghirra. Her delusion levels are unmatched (except for me and Gella about Axel, but at least Gella came to her senses).

Also, I did not mention Vernestra, but I enjoyed her in ToTF. I think Elzar needed someone to be mad at him. Not sure how to feel about her in the Acolyte? I guess I'll never know now LOL

I will say this: Every character works. Across these novels, very little space is wasted. I can tell how much effort & love went into these projects. Everyone has a purpose, a goal, an obstacle, and a foil. They have all grown (except... Marchion?), and even when they hurt my favorites, I understand.

I have DNF'd a lot of Star Wars books. Aftermath 1, Master and Apprentice (sorry, Claudia), Thrawn: Treason, and Ahsoka (DNF'd this TWICE, sorry, I simply cannot do it). They don't all work for me! But every Adult High Republic Novel has (enough to reread FOUR of them!). I really appreciate this corner of the galaxy, and I'm sad to see it end when I have just now found it.

(Also, someone please write Gella & Axel content IAMBEGGING).

[littleplantfreak]

Okay, as a certified ume lover (you), I had this thought and decided you had to know too, imagine you end up getting pregnant and ume is like tears and shit and considering his backstory, he genuinely looks at you and loses his shit, and HE WONT EVER LET YOU GO OUT OF HIS ARMS, go everywhere with you, not a step out of the house without him, hugging you more tighter in his sleep cause he doesn't want you to fall over accidentally and end up hurting yourself, he will be there for EVERY single time you are suffering with morning sickness, and hear all the complaint on how much you are peeing and how you can't reach the floor and see your own feet and go behind and lift your belly to lessen the burden and pain on your back as you melt into him. Let's not talk about the fact the baby is born and he gets to hold them? He would melt and have a breakdown so bad that gets the nurses smiling so bad seeing such a reaction from a father, he will be hugging you and kissing you thanking him for giving him this life and OMG IMAGINE MAKING A WHOLE NURSERY ROOM WITH HIM, FILLED WITH BABY SHOES, PAINTING IT, BUILDING EVERYTHING.

Or imagine he gets so overly protective and worries fills his mind when you tell him you are pregnant, and you just sit on his lap and hold his face every so gentle and kissing him between every sentence all over his face and comforting him that it will all be alright and that you know he is gonna be the best father ever and that he doesn't have to go through this whole experience with worries eating him up considering he already experienced losing his mom, dad and his unborn sibling.

OKAY FORGOT TO ADD,

Him just talking to your belly whenever you are sleeping and see it when you wake up and him telling the child to "don't bother your mom so much" while gently kissing it. I AM SO NOT NORMAL ABOUT IT AND I, GENERALLY DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT PREGANANCY, BUT ITS SO DIFFERENT WITH UME, I AM SORRY ‼️‼️

(I didn't read the ask after typing it , so if I made any mistake, my bad bestie)

Nonnie come sit with me on the couch lets chat so much ive got snacks and blankies 😎

I do think although he’s pretty well adjusted when it comes to his past, he WOULD have a few noticeable changes because if you went through what he did who wouldn’t have some residual issues? The tension in his shoulders when you’re both walking in a city or if he hasn’t gotten a text back in more than a few hours while he’s at work? An anxious mess, Hiragi give him some medicine or something. He’s never been so stressed and ecstatic in his life its exhausting for him but he refuses to ever say the stressed part out loud you just gotta talk him through it and be stubborn about it because otherwise he’s trying to take care of you TOO much.

It’s not your pregnancy with him it’s OUR pregnancy he’ll get sympathy sick when you’re puking your guts out or cry like he’s in pain when you get IVs or shots for it (dont even get me started on the epidural i didnt know the catheter stayed IN your back when you got it wtfff till like…last year) best guy to be pregnant with though and he won’t stop talking about how brave and sweet and perfect you are or how pretty you look despite how you feel like none of those words.

He’s ALL up in the delivery room despite the horrors and he’s apologizing profusely when you’re crying that he did this to you and that hes the worst and then you’re like baby i dont really mean that but this is fucking terrible rip he knows you dont mean it and you can squeeze his hand, hit him, yell at him he doesn’t mind at all if it makes you feel even just a little bit better

He tries your weird cravings with you no matter what it is or what time it is. You wanna eat peanut butter and pickles at 3am? Lets go bby we’re taste testing.

He’s getting up in the middle of the night as much as possible when the baby’s born so that you can rest, you have to force him back to bed sometimes because he’s sleep deprived eventually.

O Holy One,

I come to you with a wish.

I serve you today

And clean up my mess.

Erase each hex or curse

Remove the ones on me

Or those upon my lover.

Bless this hour that I pray,

For your judgement, come what may.

Amen.
