imagine shinra kishitani (from durarara), othello (from black butler) and maho hiyajo (from steins; gate) together, they would be (lab coat) besties

[aleenya]

its so funny to me that steins;gate is *checks notes* 15 years old and yet every year we're still getting at minimum five kurisu figures per annum

Autistic Anime Girls Group 3 Match 25

SUBMISSION PROPAGANDA:

Maho -

"Maho is a is a college student who goes to Viktor Chondria University. She specializes in neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence! She also made a very advanced AI that can replicate human emotions and thoughts based on anyone of your choice. She is feisty and short tempered, but she is hard working and dedicated to her skills, even though at times she can miss social cues or is very uncomfortable around others."

Kirie -

"Kirie is an incredibly sweet girl who, due to her social anxiety, staring spells and poor control of her facial expressions, suffers from 'resting menacing aura.'

she doesn't hate people, but her body language and facial expressions are misinterpreted as agitation, anger and/or coldness.

this results in most of her classmates staying away from her and rendering her an unpopular member of her class.

however, with the autistic quirk of it being easier to socialise with those outside your age group, Kirie forms a strong friendship with the popular girl she has a crush on by mistaking her as her little sister (if you haven't watched the show, just roll with it).

this is not only a great win for the gays, but also for all the autistic teens growing up struggling with poor self-esteem because of their struggles with social interactions and friendships.

this is because, although Kirie eventually befriends her crush whilst knowing it is her, she assumes that she is her least valued friend due to their opposite levels of popularity, social awkwardness, and being what she believes to be "boring" (Kirie is shy and secretive about her hobbies, doesn't invest in her appearance as much as her crush and her friend group do, and struggles to adequately participate in group conversations).

however, in reality, Kirie is the only friend her crush is her true self with (the fake little sister friendship i was talking about) that she actively hides from others, meaning that arguably Kirie is actually her crush's closest and most valuable friend.

moreover, it is Kirie's autistic propensity to not adhere to arbitrary social norms and judge those that fall outside of them that is foundational to why she is a safe space for her crush to interact with her without hiding the traits she believes people will dislike her for (e.g, being heavily preoccupied with and invested in otaku interests, preferring to wear loose comfy clothing, preferring to eat simple foods, preferring familiar activities over new ones, speaking and acting impulsively, experiencing social fatigue etc…).

and if you've read those traits and thought 'hmmm, those sound familiar' - you are right! - because Kirie's crush is also heavily autistic coded but, unlike Kirie, is particularly skilled at masking (so good at masking, the mask and the masker acquire the roles of siblings, apparently).

so, not only is Kirie an example of an autistic person who worries that their traits prevent them from true friendships when they actually have done the opposite, but she is also a catalyst to the showcasing of autistic comradery, self-love, and homosexuality.

basically, Kirie Motoba is the Patron Saint of Autistic Lesbians and i love her."

"У вселенной есть начало, но нет конца. У звёзд есть начало, но их собственная сила ведёт их к гибели. Конечность. История доказала, что мудрецы глупее всех остальных. Рыба, что живёт в море, ничего не знает о суше. Знай они об этом, их жизнь бы потеряла смысл. Для людей преодолеть скорость света... большая глупость, чем для рыбы - пытаться жить на суше. Эти слова можно назвать последним предупреждением Бога тем, кто ещё сопротивляется. Эпиграф для их упрямства." (с) Rintaro Okabe & Maho Hiyajo Ph - DELdpet Грим - Дарья Клименкова

Fic idea

Steins;Gate 0 but told from Maho’s POV. Crushing on Okabe, learning more about him, watching his resolve transform over the days (years!) she knows him. Watching the way he works so hard to find a way back to Kurisu, helping him complete so many time leaps, knowing it’s all so one version of Okabe can be happy. All for a girl who by this point has been dead for over a decade. And…knowing she’s still Salieri. She’s still second-best to Amadeus. She will never be Makise Kurisu. Maho is so tragic, and I never appreciated it before. She knew the Okabe that Kurisu never knew. She helped him over so many years, and still she never stopped him. She knew it was all for Kurisu. She was okay with that.

I don’t ship Maho and Okabe, like, at all. But I love the idea of Maho being second-best on every world line. Always coming close but never being enough. It’s so tragic, and it’s so real. I feel for the girl purely for that.

The idea for this popped up in my head and i just had to try to do it.

His face looks really silly but it's growing on me and the rest looks cute imo.

HIS CUNTY MOURNING OUTFIT!!!

sorry for saying okabes mourning outfit is cunty...

lmao who am i kidding im not sorry

[skybeads]

Happy Maho Monday!

[aleenya]

i just think it's super poetic how maho in the narrative of s;g is overshadowed by kurisu and consistently relegated to second best

and this literally haunts her entire character in real life/the fandom space too

she really is Salieri right to the very end

[maishart]

Every start of the year I like to continue this tradition of drawing Maho from Steins Gates and see how much everything changed in a year hahahaha. So here it's 2024 Maho

[harmonicstupidity]

for the next steins;gate project I think Maho should become real and also my wife and also pregnant with my child I think the fans are ready for that
