do we know what foods Jakurai likes other than natto and possibly pumpkin if we go off the hypcake..

i am certainly not the jakurai lore person i used to be so i’m sure there are plenty more i’m not thinking of??? but off the top of my head he likes

vanilla ice cream enough to put natto on top of it (a man truly built different)

he’s made french food in an arb event so he’s probably partial to french cuisine (he’s a francophile in arb tho hon hon hon oui oui baguette)

vegetable stew???? nikujaga??? idk there’s that time he made stew for everyone and was seen shopping for vegetables the chapter before lol but i’d have to listen to the track for the exact food

oh what the fuck that's all the posts when you search up ichinemu?? 😭😭

I KEEP CALLING SAMATOKI SARU HELP

[lochness-art]

ok so i was sad that ramuda doesnt wear turquoise anymore (bc it looks so good on him) BUT yknow what the benefit of the yellow is

it looks v good next to samatoki's new blue leather jacket 'fit 💖

[dandelionjack]

actually actually… buckle in for some more unnecessarily detailed baseless speculation*. because it’s fun and there’s still 2 weeks to go (*stop accusing me of TJLCery i’m going to cry)

so, since rogue is the pre-finale episode… as a pattern those tend to begin in the manner of your average doccy who story, but finish with a devastating plot twist denouement to segue into the two-parter at the end. best examples of this are utopia and (gotta hand it to s12 here) the haunting of villa diodati. “it’s a celebrity historical! byron and the shelleys are here! oh and oops… what’s that? that’s the sound of the doctor making a fatal mistake that will inevitably lead her to the narrative climax…”

now what i’m getting at is. what if we’ve all been looking in the wrong place and rogue, not TLORS, is the episode by the end of which the doctor figures out that they’re stuck inside a TV show that’s been remixing old stories from their former adventures? “bridgerton! regency era! jane austen! flirting! ballgowns! dancing! oh and oops… what’s that? that’s the sound of doctor making a tragic discovery that will inevitably lead him to the narrative climax…”

here’s how this ties in to the popular “jonathan groff = recast harkness” theory. now, i USED to be an ardent proponent of it, but i no longer believe he’s actually playing pre-TEC/TDD captain jack, or any era captain jack at all, really. what he is playing, or so i gather apropos of crumbs and wisps of information, is a remarkably harkness-like character. just alike enough to make us (and the doctor!!) wonder: am i getting deja vu?? has rtd devolved into a hack who’s been reusing his old ideas and hoping we won’t notice?

no. look at the sneaky incorporation of The Doctor Dances’ title in the DWM paragraph above. he’s hoping we do.

it’s been pretty much confirmed by ~inside sources~ (read: leaks on reddit from ages ago) that groff’s playing either a time agent or former time agent — judging by the description above, it’s “former time agent turned bounty hunter”. charming, handsome rizzlord fella from the future (what’s that blaster in this hand? could it be from the villengard factories?), adept at blending in with a british historical period despite sounding noticeably american, actively involved in the social life of that historical era, morally grey and antagonistic towards the doctor at first, yet strangely alluring… sexual tension heavily implied… we’re supposed to feel like we’ve seen all this before. this man is a Not-Harkness.

change the doctor’s life forever is the key sentence here. as the doctor realises how remarkably similar groff-“rogue” is to jack when he first met him, and how the circumstances of their meeting almost rhyme too, he’ll notice some more odd things.

he’ll notice. he’ll notice how ruby looks like clara, waited for him while she aged like amy did, called her mum from a future space station looking down through a panoramic window at a planet like rose had, how their relationship is a best friendship/sibling-esque like with donna … he’ll notice how many of their adventures together seem to retread steps already walked. and then the puzzle will click into shape and it will “change the doctor’s life forever”: he’ll discover that this is a puppet show and go searching for whoever’s pulling the strings.

Not-Harkness “Rogue” Groff is the catalyst. the final straw.

or maybe not. maybe this is complete waffle i pulled out of my arse. only time will tell

Self Aware HypMic?

(What kind of rabbit hole I'm falling in?)

It goes as if you did this 2 ways

- You played the game

- You watched the anime/read manga

(If u didn't it's alr tho)

Let's begin!

.

.

.

☆

'Kay, so game verse and anime/manga verse are kind of different. Even the game name says "alternative rap battle" instead of division rap battle.

(I assume u already know TDD Era and stuff.)

.

.

It was another mundane day of your life. Pillows surrounded your figure, as you flipped pages of the manga (online or not, up to you). Your drink of choice nearby you, ready to be drank and yet, you are too preoccupied with a manga that you recently found out about. This past months, you've been listening to drama tracks, the songs and reading the manga. The storyline is quite complicated in the beginning, but the more you read, the more you understand. You felt so many emotions during the reading process. Sadness, anger, happiness, love. You were so hooked on it.

Unbeknownst to you, figures inside the said manga were having an existenal crisis. Nothing really new to Ramuda, but you get me. The days have been going as they used to. Rap battles went well. Nothing seemed out of place except for the strange feeling. The feeling of being watched. No one understood why did they feel this way. It was not a stalker was it? They became paranoid, until they started hearing voices. Who is it..?

.

.

.

First ones to become self-aware: Ramuda, Rio, Saburo, Kuko(?), Sasara, Iris, Gentaro, Doppo, Otome.

Everyone finds out or accepts it later, then the characters I listed.

I think some of them hated you, some didn't mind you, while others ignored you. They thought you would leave after a while, and yet, you stay. Why are you watching them?

For some reason they can somewhat feel what you feel towards them. Perhaps their universe is intune with your emotions? Would...would they all die if you stopped liking them?

Their world seems to constantly change as well. Why? Some days you were watching them, and sometimes talking. Other days you..sang along with them? Tried to help them sing better? Helped them during some battles..? (Game moments)

It certainly took everyone a good while to warm up to you. Some warmed up quicker than others (Dice and Jiro, they thought you were some guardian angel or something. Like- you're helping them fr)

.

.

I'll expand on this suff and world building later. Now, let's move on.

.

.

(I may write for Secret Aliens, but I don't know them much so idk)

Depending on reader's age, it will be a romantic or platonic piece.

Reader is 18+?

Romantic: Ichiro, Jyushi, Kuko, Jiro(?), Dice, maybe Nemu.

Others are platonic

Reader is 25+?

Romantic: MTC, Hifumi, Doppo, Ramuda, Gentaro, Sasara, Rosho

Others are platonic.

Reader is a teen?

Romantic: Saburo, Jiro.

Everyone else is platonic. Even this, depends entirely on age of the reader. (I have a few 13+ readers, and more 16+ readers)

Reader is 30+?

Romantic: Jakurai, Hitoya

Others are platonic (I don't write for Rei)

I honestly am 15, so I feel more comfortable with characters that aren't older than 20 heh.

Aka Saburo, Jiro, Ichiro, Kuko, Jyushi and etc.

Even tho I stated in 25+ as platonic, I know that ppl who r 25 can date ppl 20+, so yeah, you may specify if romantic or platonic? Tbh I don't know much abt adult relationships sorry.

I don't write for Rei

Also Hifumi warming up to reader depends on gender (We all know why)

Everything else goes by my rules, pinned post :^

#thoughts

honestly, as a dedicated rebirth+bunker fan, I barely visit the dark descent tag. maybe amfp, maybe justine. but the dark descent? nah. I mean once a month I look for it on Tumblr and I’m like « oh, headcanons. Oh, juliabeatrice animations. Oh, Alexander or Daniel. cool. see you next month ». And it’s over. it’s just a bit weird. my entire group of fandom friends usually sends the dark descent related posts in the chat and I’m like oh? something happens here? it surely does ofc. it’s just so weird to find yourself so uninterested in… like, the main amnesia series game, the first and the most popular one. it’s just so weird that back in 2015 I knew only Alexaniel stuff, memes with Grunts and Peediepie, and now I barely follow the tag of my current game series hyperfixation. Like I never even expected there could be amnesia game I love more than TDD. back in 2015 I was like « yeah Justine is short and AMFP is sad and not meme-able, so TDD it is, yaoi angst letsplays memes material », and now I’m like « what? There are other games besides Rebirth and the Bunker? What? There’s someone else than Leon de Vries? » lol. Its just surprising how much can it change for you as a game series fan in… ten years, who am I kidding, this game is a relic. I mean, in modern terms, when a mainstream dies in a week. Well, to conclude, it’s a pleasure to be in the same fandom with you guys who still make stuff about Alex, Daniel, Agrippa, Mandus and Justine, after all these years. I may seem like I’m a newbie (and it’s not bad honestly, I’m happy to see amnesia series receiving a new wave of hype after the Bunker’s release) but I’m actually here since 2015 and I’ve waited patiently for Rebirth’s release since the trailer, because I remembered how good was TDD and AMFP. and how good was the internet around these two games ten years ago. Maybe now it’s not the same and it won’t be the same, we won’t have impact shitty memes with Rebirth and Bunker’s characters, we won’t have funny Pewdiepie videos (man has a BABY, he became Rebirth’s protagonist himself lol, congrats tho), but we have a completely new era of fandom stuff. And it’s nice to see new people and old fans being brought together by the legend of why the hell Alexander was kicked out at the first place Frictionals are you kidding we wait for like 14 years already and you’re still silent about it what did he do did he fart during Empress coronation or what

anyways il ove yall hehe you’re cool thank you for getting old with me

[jounetsunosymphonia]

You're a friend.

old-ish sasasama based on shoujo rei and inspired by just an absolutely insane number from stage where tdd-era samatoki has a fever dream about sasara

edit: I FORGOT THE.

[darrx-moon]

Current Ichiro is so much like Akihiko, but TDD Ichiro definitely gave me more Shinjiro vibes while still being extroverted.

Jiro has a lot in common with Ken, though personality wise he’s like Junpei imao. He definitely looks up to Ichiro like Ken does with Akihiko, especially post-kidnapping TDD era.

Saburo probably wouldn’t like Shinjiro at first, but would quickly respect him later on. Also him and Ken are so similar in personality save for the fact Ken’s interests are more in line with Jiro’s.

[nian-7]

Hiya, it's me again (✿◕‿◕✿)

I have been thinking about something bc of a fic I'm writing, and then this came into my mind so I wanna request it bc it would be a little... Funny?(I think :'D)

Okay okay, hear me out: Ichiro and his s/o are dating since his TDD era, but he remembers that she used to be a little rude to him at the beginning and it made him sad at that time, so Ichiro asks his s/o if she hated him when they met and why.

She then says that they actually met a little before the H era, when they bumped into each other and he was so rude to her that she held a grudge against him for a long time until they met again(plus she fell for him) and Ichiro didn't recognize her before bc she had changed her hairstyle after the incident. Both of them are embarrassed after this, Ichiro is sorry for his behavior back then and s/o says that they were both young and immature and she also feels sorry for being rude to him too :VV

U Already know but: You can ignore it if u want (≧﹏ ≦)

hi!! i think i understand so i hope i did it right!! enjoy!

Ichiro Yamada x reader

✧immaturity

✧comfort-ish with some fluff

-Poor Ichiro can't help but feel incredibly bad for being rude to you. And he didn't even remember when it was either! He doesn't blame you after that for giving him the cold shoulder after that though... He was an immature kid after all!

-He's one to believe that any 'fight' (if you can even call it that...) can be resolved through a talk and apologies. So when this gets brought up, he can't help but feel like he should have mentioned it before rather than kept it for all these years.

-Although embarrassed, he does feel bad for his behavior and apologizes to no end for it even though he doesn't even remember it... He does expect you to do the same though! Please apologize, don't leave him looking like a dejected puppy...

-He visibly pouts about this for a few days after too, continuously apologizing to you about it even after you've said that you forgave him long ago. He can't help it!

please do not repost any of my work without my permission, thank you for reading.

[matenrou-fan]

Could I request Ichiro with a female s/o he's known since his TDD days?

S/O is his classmate who, back then, was something of a delinquent. She got into a lot of fights and sometimes skipped classes.

One day, however, he needed someone to watch over Jiro and Saburo but the only person available was her. She ends up bonding with the two younger Yamada brothers who want her and Ichiro to marry her due to her motherly and caring nature.

Their still together years later and he's never been happier to have met her.

I hope this isn't too specific

Ichiro falling in love with his former classmate

here~ that one was really fun to write XD

Femreader, fluff, just wholesome stuff, a lot of dialogues;; 1759 words;;

Ichiro sigh tiredly, drumming his fingers to the table as he was thinking really hard. His head starts to hurt as he can't find a proper solution to this little problem that he had.

The fact is that he needed to leave Ikebukuro for a couple of days due to one of the requests from his job, and now he was worried about his little brothers. If it was something not too hard and he needed to go for a couple hours it would be nothing, but we are here talking about days. Even if Jiro is 17 now he is still not that good at household chores, and Ichiro doesn't even want to imagine all that mess that will meet him when he returns. And Saburo probably starts to talk back to Jiro, feeling more freedom without big bro..

There's no way he will leave them alone, but there is also no one who he can ask to. All his friends were busy these days and Ichiro started to lose hope. He even thought that maybe he should call Jakurai, who was pretty calm and good with treating kids. Maybe he can help him as an old friend, after all, they were getting along pretty good before, during this time when they all were in T.D.D.

Oh yeah.. His T.D.D era, when he was more.. young, wild and unruly. He chuckled, remembering the good old days and a sudden idea came to his mind.

S/o.. This girl was his classmate and he know her for a long time. They were friends for a long time, as she also was kinda bratty in high school, always getting in fights. Not only getting in, but also winning in them..! Ichiro was really admiring her competitive spirit, though he doesn't really appreciate the fact that she also skips classes sometimes.

But they don't talk for such a long time.. How much has she changed? He still has her phone number so why not try? Ichiro doesn't have that many options right now.

"Um.. Y-yeah, hello..!" - it was kinda embarrassing to remind s/o about yourself after a couple of years, and his voice was trembling a little bit now. - "It's Ichiro.. Wha- Did you recognize me by my voice?!"

After a little talk he explained the situation and was really glad that she was able to help him. Due to her voice and talks she's changed a little so Ichiro hopes that everything will be good and he will not be met by his house on fire.

***

You check the address another time, a little bit nervous as you get closer to Odd-Jobs Yamada. You kinda remember Ichiro from your school days with him but after graduation you don't talk that much.. Of course you know about his team, as rap battles were always one of the hot topics in social media now. He really changed very much in comparison to how he acts in high school, so you are wondering how he will treat you now.

"Oh, the door is open, come inside...!" - as you knock on the front door you almost immediately hear footsteps and Ichiro's voice.

His brothers were also here, looking at you so suspiciously. You can't help but chuckle as Ichiro introduces you to each other.

"I will try to finish all businesses as fast as I can. But remember that you always can call me at any time if something happens, even during night hours, okay..?" - he told you before he leaves, hugging Jiro and Saburo tightly as this two don't want to let him go.

"We would miss you so much, Ichi-ni..! Well, at least me, as Jiro is not capable of deep feelings with such an empty head, huh?" - the youngest brother sighs.

"Huh?? I'm sure you will be the first who will forget about Ni-san, as you will sit in your computer for whole days..!" - Jiro screamed in response with an angry face. It looks like the only one who can calm them down was Ichiro, as he looks at them with furrowed brows and they immediately get silent.

But as soon as the door closed behind Ichiro's back, this suspicious bratty look on their faces appeared again, as two brothers clearly saw you as the enemy.

"Uh oh.. It looks like we're gonna have a long week with you two, are we..?"

***

Ichiro sighs, sitting in the taxi, really impatient. He was on his way home, and the closer he got the more nervous he became. You didn't call him that much during these days, always telling that everything is alright, but he still couldn't calm down.

But here his house, still in its place and even looks the same, without any damage. Ichiro takes a package with little presents for his brothers and, of course, for you, and gets inside.

"Hey, hey, it's Ni-san..! S/o~chan, Ni-san is here..!" - Jiro screamed, jumping from the living room to the corridor to meet his dear big bro.

But Ichiro was stunned and speechless. Did Jiro actually just call you "S/o- chan..?" He can't remember when his little brother called anyone like that..

"Jiro, stop screaming..! Ichi-ni is probably really tired after his business trip.." - Saburo gets here too with a casual angry scoff that he always shows to Jiro. And then a cheerful, exciting expression blooms at his face as he looks at Ichiro - "Welcome home, Ichi-ni..!"

"Yeah, hello, hello.. I was missing you so much too.." - he giggles and hugs them back. Who knew he would actually miss these little fights between them? - "But where's s/o?"

"She's in the kitchen, a little bit busy with dinner. And I was helping her..!" - Saburo bragged with a smirk - "When Jiro preferred to watch some stupid tv..!"

"S..shut up! My favorite football team is playing today! And S/o-chan said that she doesn't mind if I relax a little. Hehe, don't you think she appreciates me more?" - Saburo hiss, hearing such a mockery from Jiro.

When Ichiro, once again, was frozen in place, absolutely confused. Are they fighting for your attention now or what? They two then quickly notice his surprised face and suddenly get closer.

"Oh, oh, exactly! Ichi-ni, please, be honest.." - Saburo whispered, looking at the kitchen where you were still cooking a big dinner.

"Don't lie to us now, okay?" - Jiro looked at him with a serious and concerned face that scared Ichiro even more.

"W.. what is it, guys?" - he also started whispering, a little bit nervous.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" - these two asked almost synchronously, when Ichiro started blushing uncontrollably.

"Huh?! Just what's wrong with you two?!" - he can't believe this is the first thing that he hears from his brothers.

"No, no, listen..! If you have one, then you should break up with her and marry S/o..! Please!!" - Jiro suddenly started screaming, too excited and you finally left the kitchen to meet Ichiro and to hear what they talked about.

"Hehe, haven't I told you not to tell such nonsense to your big brother?" - you chuckle a little and then look at Ichiro - "Welcome home. Sorry, I was a little busy with dinner but it's almost ready now.."

"H-hello and thank you, but.. Aren't you wearing one of my t-shirts right now??" - he looked closely at you and recognized one of his old clothes on you.

"Oh, is something wrong?" - you blush a little, looking at him confused - "Saburo told me I can wear them for a little.."

"Exactly.. Doesn't she look adorable in your clothes, Ichi-ni?" - Saburo's voice was so luring, almost like a demon's.

"And she's cooking so well..!" - Jiro added with a happy expression.

They both suddenly got closer to you and hugged you tightly, looking at Ichiro with puppy eyes, as if it would help.

"Well, well, you both should calm down, okay?" - you giggle softly, patting their heads, and then also look at Ichiro and notice that he blushes more, unable to look away.

For a moment his heart skipped a beat. The way you were standing here, in his clothes that was a little bit big for you, holding his brothers almost in a motherly way with such a kind gaze and soft smile.. Well, maybe it's even good that there was no one who could help him, as now he gets an opportunity to get to know you better.

"She's right, you two should calm down. Come one, we all need to wash our hands before everything gets cold..!" - Ichiro nods, taking his brothers with him to the bathroom. He will totally scold them here while you don't see this.

***

"Thank you very much, darling.." - Ichiro smiles, helping you clear the table after dinner - "Your cooking was great, as always.."

Saburo and Jiro were also here, jumping around and clinging both to you or to their big bro.

"Will we go to the park this weekend too?" - Jiro asks with a playful expression - "S/o~chan, I promise you to win this plushie in the shooting gallery and I will do that..!"

"Not with your low skills, huh." - Saburo scoff, taking clear glasses from you and wiping them with cloth.

"Okay, okay, hold on. No park this weekend, as I already planned a date with S/o, okay?" - Ichiro interrupted their little fight - "And don't give me that look, you both were asking me to marry her, now let me have some alone time with my wife, alright?"

"It's okay.." - you giggle and blush a little. It was still a little bit strange to be called "wife", but you really like it, as Ichiro always said it with such tenderness in his voice, your soul melts every time.

Ichiro gets closer and hugs you, his face so soft and his gaze so loving as he can't stop admiring your beauty. It was a few years ago when you two bond your lives together and swear allegiance to each other for the rest of your days, he still looks at you as if it was the first time he sees you, still with a little blush on his cheeks and sparkle in this sincere gaze.

"I have never been happier than with you, s/o.." - he whispers suddenly, kissing your forehead softly. You feel like the color of pink warms up on your cheeks too, as you look at him a little bit surprised but also so happy - "You're the one who makes my home feel like home.. I love you ♡"

[blue-thief]

it's missing kujaku posse/tdd era ramujaku hour

[crehador]

there's so much i love about the arb high school au event but i think one thing i'm going to be chewing on forever is the fact that like

when they had the tug of war competition. ichiro vs samatoki. it ended up as a draw because they pulled so hard they ripped the rope in two

and that's funny but also

we find out this is. ichiro's dream. literally even in his dreams. he doesn't beat samatoki when they have their silly little fights. and he doesn't lose to samatoki either

in his subconsciousness they're equals (even in the same year, at the same school) and that's just. i mean obviously arb is not meant to be taken seriously lol but that's a fantastic bit of characterization imo, even character development

because it's a huge, obvious change from tdd era when ichiro only idolized samatoki, it's so significant and important for him to reach this point where he does actually see samatoki as an equal

anyway. very happy with this event as if that weren't already obvious lmao

[bow-wow-wark-wark]

Hiii~ i come from the dead to present a hypmic naruto au. Here's our team 7

Kuko is obvi naruto. Ichiro is sasuke (tdd era ichi makes me think a lot of early sasuke) and nemu as Sakura (tho in that like Sakura joins orochimaru way). In this au I think both ichi and nemu should be samatokis brother and have sharingan!! (Ichi only in 1 eye)

+ I would probably make sasara Kakashi (it's funny). And make the 3 hypmic old men into the sannin. Hitoya as tsunade, rei as hiraya and jakurai as orochimaru (lolll)

[azover]

I'm not too into hypmic (as in. I didn't watch/read everything) so I ask this to the people that have consumed everything about it... or at least enough to answer

Why the fuck do the matenro dudes have like, and underside to their hair???

No one else does, did they dye it together??? I'm pretty sure jakurai already had that in his TDD era at least, and his is the least noticeable. So what the fuck is going on with doppo and hifumi? Did they all point at eachother n say "you have fucked up hair I need to rap w you"????
