request. hi, can you do the reactions of riize when reader prank them by not wearing their engagement ring …

「 ୨୧ authors note 」 this was cute i hope you like it <3 !!!

﹙ 𐙚 : shotaro ﹚ .ᐟ

he notices it , but he doesn’t say anything. “hey baby.” you gave him a kiss , sitting down next to him. “hi.” he says, eyes going immediately to your hand, noticing your ring wasn’t on your finger. he thought you probably lost it in the couch since it’s happened before. so he wastes no time, getting up and checking in between the cushions quietly. turning to your phone which you hidden confused, then turning back to him. “taro my love what are you doing.” his shiny eyes and warm smile making your heart flutter. “im trying to find your ring baby , i know you probably lost it in the cushions.” he was so cute , you couldn’t help but swoon. “oh don’t bother.” you fold immediately. “it was a joke.” you took the ring from your pocket. “ah why!” he whined, cheeks red. “don’t do that again.” he took the ring from your hand , putting it back on your finger.

“keep it on , it looks pretty there.”

﹙ 𐙚 : eunseok ﹚ .ᐟ

his ass don’t care, you already said yes. you’re gonna marry him regardless if you wear the ring or not; HOWEVER , he paid thousands of dollars for that ring , it’s not about to collect dust now. “i see the camera.” he said pointing , pissing you off. “I hate you.” you snatch your phone up. “why can you ever go along with something?” you pout , he can’t but think that you’re so cute. “baby that ring i bought for you , i don’t care if you wear it or not.” he shrugged , kissing your lips. “how can you say that?” he smirked.

“because you’re gonna marry me regardless , you already said yes, that’s all i need.”

﹙ 𐙚 : sungchan ﹚ .ᐟ

his ass won’t notice that it’s missing , so you have to take it off right in front of him. “what do you want to eat?” both of you sitting in the car. “i don’t know.” you fiddled with the ring , looking at the camera with a smirk, because you know he’s gonna look at you which gives you a perfect chance. “are you jo…” he stops seeing you take the ring off , sitting it in the cup holder. “what is it?” he just blinks at you. “sungchan.” you bite back a smile. “what are you doing?” he said, looking at your hand , then to you. he will pull the entire car over. “put it back on.” he said. “now.” you smile at him. “this is a joke isn’t it , you’re prancing me?” you point to the camera , he rolls his eyes , driving off again.

“im gonna super glue it to your finger, keep your ring on.”

﹙ 𐙚 : wonbin ﹚ .ᐟ

you can not trick him, he saw you set up the camera, he knows the ring is in your pocket. he scoffs as you go on with your day. “why are you making so much noise.” you try not to laugh at his sassy ass attitude. “you wanna take your ring off?” he said , reaching for his. “fine let’s take them off.” he said trying to slide it off his finger , but you stopped him. “don’t do that.” you slapped his hand. “then put yours on , now.” you took the ring out , sliding it back on your fingers. “see now get your hand away from your hand.” you want to slap that stupid smirk off his face.

“don’t take it off anymore.”

﹙ 𐙚 : seunghan ﹚ .ᐟ

he just thinks it needs to be cleaned or something, do it doesn’t real bother him. “baby where’s your ring?” he asks , you look at the camera without his knowledge. “im gonna take it to the cleaners today.” mind you he’s done this already. “you need it cleaned right , that’s why you took it off right?” he gets up from the couch. “it’s probably in the room then.” you stop him before he goes into the room. “hannie you’re so cute.” you pulled him back down on the couch. “what do you mean princess?” you point to the camera. “it’s a joke hannie , it’s in my pocket , i just wanted to see your reaction.” he smiles when you pull it out your pocket. “see.” taking it out your hand , sliding it back on your finger.

“just like the first time i proposed to you , beautiful.”

﹙ 𐙚 : sohee ﹚ .ᐟ

don’t do him like this; he’ll automatically think you want to end the engagement… of course you don’t , but in his mind he’s like; if you didn’t want to break up , why take it off? do you hate him? oh he’s going crazy. “baby.” you hear the quiver in his voice. “baby where’s your ring?” he pouted. “you’re not supposed to take it off.” he whined. “I didn’t notice.” his eyes widen at your words. “what do you mean!” he said. “you’re supposed to wear it 24/7, you have to show it off.” you laugh at his child-like behavior. “don’t laugh.” he said. “it’s just a prank baby , the ring is in my pocket.”

“then put it on and don’t take it off again.”

﹙ 𐙚 : anton ﹚ .ᐟ

6 million things go through his mind all at once; did he do something wrong? were you mad at him? how does he fix this without pissing you off even more? “baby?” he said softly, you forced down a laugh. “yeah ton?” this confused him even more, you called him by his nickname so you couldn’t be upset. “ton what is it?” you broke the boy out of his thoughts. “you aren’t mad at me right?” he said. “did you do something to make me mad?” he’s like please answer the question. “your ring.” he said. “you took it off, are you mad?” he didn’t even see the camera. “im sorry if you are.” you actually started to feel bad , you pouted. “im sorry ton it was a joke i didn't mean to upset you.” you pointed to the camera. he stared into the camera , before giving you shy smile, looking away. “don’t do that again.” he said, covering his face.

“please put it back on now.”

I'm pretty sure I've sent you like 3 requests already 😬 so if you're sick of me you can toss this in the trash. I'll still continue to love you anyway (๑•̀ᗝ•́)૭ ⋆ ˚｡⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚｡⋆ You're fantastic and an angel. If anyone says otherwise, they're lying.

That said, imagine childhood friend darling with yandere Joot. Maybe they go to school together and darling isn't too fond of his fan club. It's entirely reasonable that they might go on vacations with each other's families as kids and teens. They may have even shared a bed or a bath as children. I bet they even have a separate nickname for him. Like "Taro" or just "Jo" to separate from all the people who call him "Jojo". Just because they can get away with it.

Maybe they have secret feelings for him but don't know how to tell him or they're afraid of rejection and are thus waiting for a hint or for him to make the first move.

Imagine all the "borrowed" clothes. Wearing his shirts to paint in or something and secretly sleeping in it because he's next door and it can be returned whenever.

There's endless possibilities here. I'm certain of it. ღゝ◡╹)ノ♡

An angel? 

I either answer requests fairly quickly, or let it sit there in my inbox for a little while. It isn’t personal or indicative of how much interest I have in something, I’m just a college student and this blog is my hobby; I like doing requests. 

… “Taro?” Like the vegetable? The boba flavor option? That’s the worst one yet, are you trying to piss him off? 

To be fair, he isn’t fond of his fan club either. You’ve known him the longest, he isn’t really into that sort of attention. He probably uses you to hide from them, whether that be ducking into classrooms and getting you to lie for him or by just not stopping talking to you when they try to approach.  

Maybe your mother is friends with his. Holly is one of those extra touchy crosses way too many family boundaries types of mothers, of course a bath is o-kaay! There’s tons of photos of you in the family album book somewhere, maybe even actually on display. Aw, look at baby Jo-ta-rooo, he’s smiling with you!!!!

Jotaro doesn't realize how lucky he is to live this close to you, or be this close to you in general. He hasn't realized he has actual feelings for you, maybe not until you've both matured a little bit. He isn't really the romantic type, he probably doesn't even recognize the fact that he has romantic feelings for you until something threatens that or you make a move.

Maybe you kiss him as an 'in the moment, please forget I did that' sort of thing. Just a little peck while you're sharing your after-class snack, on the lips. As you steal his first kiss, it clicks in his head that you need to be his last as well.

He turns the photos of baby you and him around, that night.

A deep-sea creature steeped in folklore has once again washed ashore in California.

On Nov. 6, a researcher on an Encinitas beach spotted an oarfish, measuring 9 to 10 feet long. The fish typically swim at depths of 300 to 3,000 feet and are rarely seen on the surface. Yet it was the third time one has appeared in Southern California since August.

They have been associated with bad omens, according to English-language accounts of Japanese folklore.

The fish, which can grow to 30 feet in length and feed on krill, have typically washed up on beaches when injured or disoriented, according to scientists.

The current group of oarfish washing ashore "may have to do with changes in ocean conditions and increased numbers of oarfish off our coast," Ben Frable, manager of the Scripps Oceanography Marine Vertebrate Collection at UC San Diego, said in a statement. "Many researchers have suggested this as to why deep-water fish strand on beaches. Sometimes it may be linked to broader shifts such as the El Niño and La Niña cycle but this is not always the case," he said, adding that many variables could be the cause.

The previous fish were discovered in Huntington Beach in September and in La Jolla in August, according to Scripps. Before August's discovery, scientists had only recorded 19 oarfish that had washed up on the California coast since 1901, the oceanography researchers said.

Fish and muddled folklore

Oarfish have been found around the globe, but one particular country's history with the fish has gathered the most attention: Japan.

According to some media reports, oarfish have been associated in Japanese folklore with prophesies of doom — in particular, earthquakes.

Researchers in Japan looked into this in 2019: "In Japan, folklore says that uncommon appearances of deep‐sea fish are an earthquake precursor. If this folklore is proved to be true, the appearance of deep‐sea fish could be useful information for disaster mitigation," a group from Tokai University and the University of Shizuoka wrote. But they scoured news reports of deep-sea fish washing up and determined that there wasn't much of a relationship between those sightings and earthquakes.

Some accounts say the oarfish were known in centuries past as ryugu no tsukai, roughly translating to a "messenger from the Dragon Palace."

Yoshiko Okuyama, a professor of Japanese studies at the University of Hawaii at Hilo, pointed to a Japanese fairy tale with source text dating back to the 8th century. It tells the story of a fisherman named Urashima Taro who, in return for saving a turtle, is taken to the underwater palace of the Dragon King, Ryugu-jo.

"In Japan several different sea creatures have been called the Messenger of the Dragon Palace. The list includes eels and turtles," she said in an email. Adding oarfish to that list was "plausible — anything mysterious from the sea can be imagined as such, right?" but she said she was unable to immediately verify it with source material.

A database of Japanese folklore describes ryugu no tsukai as "large fish with human heads, horns, long hair, and sometimes beards." In a retelling of a legend on the folklore database, the creatures were a bit of a mixed bag. They foretold of death and disease, but said people would be saved so long as they "hear my message."

Gatehouse to Shrine (Enoshima Island, Fujisawa, Kanagawa Pref., Japan)

Zuishinmon, the gatehouse at the top of the first set of stairs, just past the grand torii gate, is modeled after the mythical Dragon King Castle (Ryugu-jo) that is depicted in the Japanese folktale “Urashima Taro.”

The kanji characters used for Zuishinmon (瑞心門) literally mean “pure” + “heart” + “gate” and named as such in hope that the hearts of visitors will be purified as they pass through the gate as they approach the shrines atop the island.

In this shot, we can also enjoy the sight of chochin paper lanterns that have been put out for the New Year’s holidays and used to light up the winding stairs leading to the top of the island.

Trust) — kya hua tera vada, gulabi akhen (please please listen to this one please pleas eplease), tere bina zindagi se (this is meh but like. i was obsessed with it so.), chura liya hai tumne jo dil ko (also please please please listen to this i love this so much forveee), meri bheegi bheegi si, dilbar mere

Meh booba sholay, also by rd burman), bach ke rehna re baba, jhoomka gira re (theres a new version called kya jhumka and that sucks okay), kiki ki muskurahaton pe, jaane woh jaise log the, aa chal ke tujhe mei leke chalu

I have more songs but i forgor

[starry-blue-echoes]

so my friend came to me abt jojoland thoughts (they know almost nothing abt jjba and the parts they do know is because of my jojo osmosis to them)

so it went like this in summary (minus the key spam):

Friend: Hey Whim, u know how the new jojo is like jo"dio" right?

Me: Yea wbt?

F: ok I know u told me there's a jotaro counterpart already but imagine a Taro Brando in the new universe or the time fuckery happens and some of the jojo's come to alt universe with messed up memory????

M: VOICE CALL NOW

IM GONNA RANT TO YOU

And now me and my friends have a messed up silly guy who counter parts the jojo DIO (jodio) and there's now a DIO "jojo" ([jo]Taro Brando)

we both don't know how tf this works but my friend insists that [jo]Taro has fucked up memory problems and is in highschool. But the only thing we have about how there's another Brando in the works is maybe Diego's dad went off and got married messed around again idk really. (he also has the eyes scar >:])

.............oh my god-

I swear the fucking god if there's a Taro Brando or some kind of Jojo equivalent in Jojolands I will throw my computer out a window

It's a theory of mine that the Joestar Twins could be related to the Brando Family somehow, so them being related like this would make me loose my goddamn mind

龍宮 /  竜宮城 Ryuuguu / Ryuuguu-jou

In Japanese myth, Ryugu (literally “dragon palace”) is the name of the palace wherein the dragon sea god Ryuujin resides, which lies at the bottom of the ocean. It is most famous for being the setting where the myth of Urashima Taro takes place.

Urashima Taro was a fisherman who saved a turtle from some playing children, and in return he was invited to Ryugu-jo by Otohime, the princess. He spends three days with her in Ryugu-jo, before he tells her that he must go back to the surface to see his ailing mother. Otohime lets him go but gives him a box, the tamatebako, which she tells him to never open.

When Urashima comes back to the surface, he finds that instead of 3 days, 300 years have passed. In his grief and shock, he opens the box, and suddenly a puff of white smoke comes out. When it dissipates, Urashima has aged 300 years to an old man.

Besides Urashima Taro and Otohime, the god Ryuujin who resides in Ryugu-jo is one of the most beloved gods of Japanese folklore, as Japan relies much on the sea and ocean. It is believed that when the Mongolians tried to invade Japan, it was Ryuujin who summoned a storm that sank all their ships.

Just some fun stuff I think is pretty poignant with this recent episode!

[doubleddenden]

Alright so I'm trying to take my mind off of some horrible stuff rn, so I'm gonna theorize some more about Indigo Disk based on some stuff I just learned

Before we go further, keep in mind that Pokémon does mix and blend some myths and folklore around to get a result, so it could be many things

So let's get talking about it

Okay so Terapagos. Pretty obviously our Terastilizing source and the hexagon pokemon mentioned by Heath and the professor.

A few popular theories floating around about it is that it's based on World Turtle mythologies- yes, plural, because it's actually a pretty common mythos found in many Asian religions and even some from Indigenous American religions. Yeah I knew it was mentioned in Hindu, but apparently a lot of people looked at these bad boys and said "yeah that could hold us." It's neat

BUT Terapagos itself is neat in that it's name also references Galapagos Islands, famous for Darwin's study of evolution and also home to Galapagos tortoises.

Could be something, could be nothing.

On a different note, you know how everyone figured out that the Teal Mask legendaries are based Momotaro? There's another Japanese folktale that could bear some significance here.

The Tale of Urashima Taro

I am going to paraphrase, but essentially, a guy some kids messing with a sea turtle. The guy stopped them and helped the turtle back to sea. To thank him, the turtle offered to show him a place called Ryugu-Jo- or as it's known to us, the Dragon Palace, an underwater castle at the bottom of the sea, where Taro met a princess named Otohime, and was welcomed and treated handsomely for several days. After a bit, Taro became homesick and wanted to return home. Otohime gave him a box called the tamatebako, warning him to never open it. When Taro came back to land, he found that 300 years had passed. Everyone he knew and loved had died, and everyone basically thought he sank at sea. Taro opened the box thinking it might help him, only for a puff of smoke to transform him into a feeble old man.

Now let's look at what's represented here:

1. Sea turtle

2. Underwater kingdom

3. Taro is warmly welcomed

Obviously Terapagos is the sea turtle here

The underwater kingdom?

Maybe not so much a kingdom or Dragon Palace, but it is a very fancy underwater school dedicated to battling

And as for the warmly welcomed part: we're exchange students, by this point already Champions of Paldea, and we've met and hung out with Carmine and Kieran in Kitakami- plus given how Pokémon usually is, we're most likely given the welcome wagon.

Now the question is this: given the ending of Urashima Taro, are we to expect something bad to happen to us?

Idk about 300 years passing, but given the history that Heath endured in Area Zero and the madness that eventually took over the professor, it's probably safe to say this turtle may not be so innocent.

Of course, there's another theory floating around that also makes sense: Atlantis. Everyone knows Atlantis, especially modern interpretation that it's a lost, ancient civilization home to all sorts of ancient technology. Blueberry Academy most likely could fit this as well- but... maybe also the Dragon Palace.

Think about this: who makes a damn school underwater? I know mine flooded in heavy rain, but we usually tried to AVOID the water, especially water that could lead to thousands of pounds of pressure breaking in and drowning us all. That and the school specializes in battling- why here?

Unless... this facility is looking and preparing for something.

A place? An object?

Maybe Terapagos IS the object and its being kept there- another reason to be out at sea is to hide. After all, how did it leave Area Zero otherwise? Why the secrecy with the name in the books?

Now let's consider this: who would have knowledge of Terapagos? The professor obviously, but they're dead

At least... one of them.

In Violet, Arven's mother left shortly after he was born. In Scarlet it was Turo. In fact, lots of employees left the original professor.

Theory time: the opposite professor took Terapagos to Blueberry Academy to hide it.

We know that the professor invented Tera Orbs about 10 years ago- that means that they had access to Terapagos that recently.

We also know the AI hated the professor's plan and wanted to stop it at all cost.

What if the deadbeat parent came back for Terapagos? Or eas entrusted with it by the AI at some point?

We also know BBA is a fairly recent build in comparison to N/A Academy, which has been around for hundreds of years.

My theory is that the opposite professor had the school made- or maybe was hired into it- in order to hide Terapagos or use it for their own purposes.

Hell it may not even be the professor. It could be any other of his employees.

Anyway that's enough theorizing. For all we know it's all unrelated and Terapagos just shows up somehow.
