#the animation shit the bed like five episodes back

[kxlinthesky]

I'm nearing the end of episode 11 and I still haven't hit any of the stuff I remember from the ending, which means they crammed all the batshittery into the last episode. It felt waaaay longer than one episode back then.

i feel like he’d thrive with a pet. he’s never had any exposure to animals so it’s definitely a new experience for him. i think the unpredictability of a cat would suit him. its irregular behavior keeps him on his toes, given his tendency to analyze patterns. he’d be very affectionate with a cuddly cat 

i think he would also like the loyalty of a dog. he needs stability in his life 🫶 and a cute little puppy that’ll grow w him is just perfect for him. plus, im sure it’d force him to exercise a little more (couldn’t hurt him tbh) w all the running after it he’d be doing

he watches true crime for background noise—if he actually sits down to watch it, he’ll figure it out in the first five minutes (if he didn’t already know the case outcome himself). he needs to multitask in order to genuinely enjoy it, so he usually puts it on while he cooks or cleans so he’s not dedicating his full focus to it and proceed to act like a mom watching a telenovela 

*gasp* “they found the body in the lake!”

“hmm…that was anticlimactic.”

“‘breaking news’? i had already figured that out three episodes ago.”

“oh, i worked this case!”

his cooking is shit at the beginning. you have to be patient with him. he goes in thinking bc he’s so smart it’ll come out good no matter what. (this is the case with a lot of activities he’s now discovering due to the new lifestyle). he is wrong. 

HOWEVER…he does improve with time. he’ll follow a recipe to perfection and study it until he gets it right. the only downside is his food tends to be on the more plain/bland side, so if you like strong flavors i’d keep seasonings handy. he grew up in england, what do you expect? he does excel at making sweets and baked goods though, those tend to come out more flavorful.

for all his previously normal ‘secrecy’ he’s actually a chronic oversharer. because you’re bonded for life now, he feels the need to tell you everything, all of the time. his brain runs a mile a minute and he voices pretty much every thought he has. 

“does the fan seem louder to you?”

”no, ryuzaki. go to bed.”

“but we’re not doing anything tomorrow, so we can sleep in. there’s no need to go to bed right this instant.”

“…”

“that won’t be the case next week, though, we’ve got that birthday dinner to attend.”

“…”

“dinner sounds nice enough, but i loathe the thought of shopping for a present. maybe—“

“ryuzaki. go. to. sleep.”

“hmph.”

similarly, he has a tendency to notice your patterns (he calls it a “detective’s habit”). he’s freakishly accurate with it too. sometimes it’s useful, like when he stops at the store to pick up your favorite snacks and hygiene products when he knows your time of the month is approaching. however, sometimes it’s…just weird

“darling, do you need to use the restroom?”

“um…no?”

“really? interesting. your diet hasn’t changed the last couple days, and you usually use the restroom at approximately this time for about 10 to 12 minutes every day.”

“…what the fuck?”

even though you’ve both changed your names in order to secure your identities and safety, he still calls you by your real name when it’s just the two of you. in public he prefers to call you pet names instead of your newfound aliases

he has no issues switching back n forth and he’d never slip up for fear of exposing you both, but he just tries to avoid calling you by your cover name. he feels a little guilty because if he was a ‘normal person’ you wouldn’t have had to undergo all these procedures just to be with him. he’s used to using different names for himself, but it makes him a little sour that you now have to do that too :(

speaking of sour, he’s a veeeryy jealous man. he’s not obnoxious or even outright about it, but he doesn’t like when other people get too close to you (physically and emotionally). part of it is him being paranoid that they “know something” about you, but part of it is just bc he’s just a clingy lil guy 🥺 and he just wants to be your only special guy

he’s like a territorial cat

he gets nightmares about the kira case and all of his other past cases. he doesn’t make a scene when he wakes up from them, but if you notice he’s awake don’t ask him about them. it’s unlikely he’ll answer you, and he’ll feel bad thinking he woke you up. just pretend to still be asleep and subtly cuddle closer

it coaxes him right back to sleep knowing you’re safe and sound beside him. if you’re brave you can ask in the morning, but it’s likely he’ll have forgotten the dream by then

pleeeeassee take up yoga with him. since he doesn’t need to be crouched in his heightened-deductive-skill position 24/7 anymore, it’s a worthwhile investment to fix his posture and his numerous back problems. he might enjoy the calmness and flexibility yoga provides

he might be open to the idea of children. according to canon, he only interacted with the wammy kids once very briefly, but i like to think he was fairly involved with the orphanages considering they were raising his successor. it only makes sense they’d need to get to know him at least a little—and it would explain why near’s mannerisms are so similar to his. 

i think contrary to popular opinion he would be good with kids—in his own special way. he’s not exceptionally cuddly, but he won’t reject affection either. and his intuition and reflexes are so keen that it’s not like the kid would ever be in danger. 

he’s such a homebody. i mean, we already knew that—but him being able to go out in public now has not changed his desire to want to be alone (w/ you)

he has mixed feelings about crowded places. on the one hand, the anonymity of it is kind of nice and it sets his mind at ease that no one will be able to recognize you two in such a swarm. but on the other, someone is touching him and all the noise n stuff sorta overstimulates his nervous system

the next best alternative? take him to places that are still public and out-and-about but a little more secluded. a corner booth in the back of a little restaurant, a sprawling botanical garden, an independent cafe that’s not overcrowded, etc 

HE CANT DRIVE LMAOOO. a helicopter is one thing but cars??? on the road??? with other cars?????!!! he cannot. he’s a MENACE. hopefully you can drive, but if not then it comes to public transportation 🤷‍♀️

Shoutouts: various anons & night walks asks and Qs including @selfproclaimed-moviecritic and @missannwinchester. Picks up from Morning After. Floor plan here. Can read alone I think.

A loud clap of thunder startles you awake.  You sit up in Joel’s bed, untangling yourself from the sheets.  Joel’s not there.  There’s music coming from the other side of the basement, and the clink of weights.  You look around for your clothes and remember they’re out there scattered around the couch.  Great.  You get out of bed, wrap the sheet around you, and sheepishly emerge from his bedroom.  Joel counts down from five as he finishes bench pressing then racks the weight.  He’s shirtless.  He sits up and wipes his brow.  He does a double-take when he sees you walk in, then looks you up and down with a twinkle in his eye. 

“Lookin’ good,” he says. 

You gather your clothes from around the couch and say “Just getting dressed.” Your phone is dead.  “What time is it?” 

“Hell if I know.  Look perfect to me, pumpkin.” He doesn’t take his eyes off you. “Real life goddess.”  Lightning flashes outside. 

You sit down with your clothes in your hands and look away as he watches you get dressed. You’re too tired to care and your head hurts. There’s a loud clap of thunder as you pull your tank top on.  Joel picks up his water bottle and takes a swig, then puts it down and stands up to stretch.  You pull your sweatpants on under the bed sheet.  He walks around the couch and you do your best not to ogle his glistening body, dressed only in shorts.  You start putting on your shoes and the fridge opens behind you.

“Hair of the dog?” Glass bottles slide out and clink against each other.

“Nah, I gotta go.” 

“In this mess?” he asks as thunder rumbles. The blinds are pulled up on one window now and it looks pitch black outside. “Didn’t ya walk here? Gonna get soaked.”

He comes back with two beers and hands you one.  He also brings cold pizza.

“Seriously, what time is it?”

He looks back to the kitchenette.  “Four somethin’.” Shit, no wonder you’re hungry. 

“Thanks.”  You bite into a slice of pizza first, then take a sip of your beer. 

“Attagirl. Let’s watch somethin’ while this clears up, hmm?”  He turns on Netflix.  His recently watched list is mostly action movies and nature documentaries.

You slide your shoes back off and ask, “You like animals?” You’re wondering if it’s his own Netflix history or someone else’s. 

“Hell yeah, who doesn’t?” 

You raise your eyes in surprise and nod. “Got a favorite?” Thunder crashes. 

His face gets serious and he exhales like it’s a really difficult question.  “Well shit, can’t pick just one.  But big cats are cool as hell. D’you know leopards are basically nocturnal?” 

He hands you the remote control.  Not really caring what you watch, you idly click on the #1 trending: You. 

“Oh, not this creep again,” he says and leans back with an exaggerated eye roll. “Addicting, though, ain’t it?”  He looks at you, takes a sip of beer, and rests his hand on his inner thigh.  You put on Narcos.

You watch a few episodes and have a couple of beers as it storms outside.  At some point, you bring your legs up on the couch and he coaxes your feet in his lap.  He massages your feet.  You don’t talk much, and when you do, it’s nothing serious.  But it’s still the most talking you’ve ever done.   You mostly discuss different shows and the neighborhood. 

“Why haven’t I seen ya at the pool before?” he asks. 

“First summer here,” you say.  

“Wanna go sometime?” 

“I dunno,” you say. “Don’t like the sun much.” 

“Oh hell no, not in the day,” he laughs. “They don’t lock the gate at night.”  He winks at you and gives your foot a squeeze, running his other hand up your calf to massage it. He lowers his voice and adds, “We could go any night ya want.” 

-

There’s a long moment of silence. He takes a deep breath as he kneads your calf and watches you watch TV.  His face darkens.  You have to assume you’re both thinking about the same thing - the pool at night.  Joel scoots closer to you on the couch and pulls your calves into his lap.  His cock hardens against your leg through his thin sweatshorts. Then he gently bends your closest knee to make room for himself.  He gets between your legs and slowly lunges toward you, laying the bulge in his shorts against the crotch of your pants. 

“Any night ya want,” he repeats, then brings his mouth to your neck.  He kisses and lightly sucks your delicate skin and gently presses his hard length against you.  Then he kisses you on the mouth.  He tastes like beer. He puts his forearms down either side of you and slowly thrusts against you.  He kisses you on the neck again, then murmurs, “my turn,” behind your ear.  “Show ya what this mouth can do.”  You have flashbacks to the blow job you gave him the night before. 

Joel makes his way down your body and hooks his fingers into your sweatpants.  As he brings the waistband down, he kisses the crease of your thigh and you squirm uncomfortably. “I’ll take your word for it,” you say somewhat cruelly as he plants a wet kiss just above your mound.  The truth is you already know, from the restaurant bathroom.

He pauses.  “What’samatter, pumpkin?” 

“I just feel so dirty,” you admit. 

He smirks and opens his mouth to say something predictable, but you cut him off. 

“Physically dirty. I need a shower.” 

He pauses. 

“So take one,” he offers. He sits back and extends his hand to help you up. You hesitate and he raises his eyebrows at you. “Why not? We got time. Shit, I could use one, too.”  

You swallow hesitantly. Showering with him?  Far too intimate.  First you end up in his bed, then his shower, all in the same 24 hours?

He seems to read your mind and clarifies, “Ladies first.” The storm isn’t letting up. You don't have anything to lose and definitely need a shower.

-

The back of his bathroom has a frosted window and a free-standing shower with no door and a drain on the floor. The ceramic tiles of the wall are dark peach with one row of black just below the window.  The ledge of the window holds the  soap, body wash, and shampoo.  

“Faucet's kinda weird,” he says.  “I’ll get it started.”  Your eyes scan his bare back as he turns on the shower for you, standing out of the way of the water but getting lightly sprayed by tiny droplets.  The water is loud.  He has a couple of small tattoos you don’t remember seeing before.  They look abstract from what you can tell, but they’re faded and the lines are blurred from age. 

“Guessin’ you like it hot,” he says and turns the dial.  He gets a towel and hangs it on a hook for you.  

“Thanks.” You stand there awkwardly waiting for him to leave.

“Mmm hmm.” He hesitates by the door to his bedroom, a few feet away from you with his arms crossed. He checks you out, then uncrosses his arms and abruptly steps forward into your space.  He grabs your ass and pulls you into him, your hips meeting his.  He grinds himself into you again, sending a fresh pang of desire through you.  He kisses your mouth, then your neck, and sucks your earlobe. He grabs the hem of your shirt from behind and takes it off, discarding your tank top.  Then he slides his palms into your pants, leaving his thumbs hooked outside your waistband.  He takes your pants down, dropping them to the floor as he grabs your bare ass cheeks and pulls you harder into him, his clothed hardness pressing into your naked front. 

Steam billows over from the water.  He goes to check the temp, his tented shorts getting sprayed again.  His back muscles are a sight to behold.  They flex gracefully under his skin with every movement.  He must spend half his time working out.   He checks the water and mutters, “Alllriiight.” You step toward the water.  He turns and looks. “God damn, pumpkin,” he says as he shamelessly observes your naked body head on. 

“Shut up,” you whisper to the ground and cross your arms.  Lightning flashes outside. Your parents always told you not to shower in a storm.  It’s exciting, somehow.  "I'll be quick," you say.  

"Take your time," he mutters and slowly walks backwards, palming himself as he takes in your form again.  You watch over your shoulder as he disappears into his bedroom. You imagine he’s about to jack off.  If you’re honest with yourself, you’d rather he wait for you. 

-

You turn down the heat a little and examine his array of products in the frosted window, briefly distracted by the silhouette of your reflection. You soap up your body, starting with your shoulders and back, probably using way too much shower gel.  You close your eyes and inhale deeply as your hands slide over your body and your nostrils fill with Joel’s aroma.

You open your eyes to see two silhouettes in the reflection and your breath hitches as they combine into one. Joel’s strong arms wrap around you from behind. He wordlessly gropes a soapy breast and presses his naked, rock-hard length into your back side, sliding his other hand across and down your stomach for leverage.  He grunts, “Mm” as he presses his cock against you. His voice is low and smooth as he mutters, “Filthy, aren’t we?”

His hands slide down your waist to your thighs.  His stiff cock shifting against you makes you weak in the knees.  He presses it against you again. It swells and you moan softly.  

“Yeahh, that’s my dirty girl." 

You start to warn him, “Joel-” He bends his knees, putting his hands on your hips.   “Don’t let me fall,” you say. you're still covered in lather.

As he slowly stands up straight again, he drags his hands and cock up your slippery body and runs his closed mouth up your neck to the back of your ear.  “Nothin’ wild in here, baby,” he murmurs. "We’ll get clean together. . . ‘fore we get real dirty.”  His voice echoes low and sexy. You breathe a sigh of relief. Knowing the perils of getting soap somewhere you wouldn't want to.

He plants a kiss on your jaw and uses his hand to bring your mouth toward his. You turn around to face him. His lips press into yours as his arms wrap around you again, your tits pressing into his chest.  He looks a lot different with his hair somewhat wet.  Sexy in a new way.  He reaches his long arms down and squeezes both your thighs below your ass, then slides his hand up your crack and grabs a cheek with an, “mm” into your mouth. 

You drape your arms around his neck.  He works his hands up your back, massaging what’s left of the lather into you, and slides his hands through your underarms on the way to your breasts.  Your nipples pucker under his palms as he massages your breasts from the front and watches a small trail of bubbles slide down between them. “Fuck me,” he breathes.  He looks up at your eyes, then turns you around again.  

He brings you you both directly under the water again.  He rinses your back, then gets your breasts again from behind, pressing gently against your ass with his cock as stiff as ever.  “You’re gorgeous, pumpkin.”

“Thanks,” you whisper and begin to rinse your own body.  The sight of your own hands gliding across your skin is something he has to see.  You turn to face him and he’s covered with your lather, from his light chest hair down past his happy trail to his slippery cock. He watches you darkly, and begins to slowly stroke his raging erection.  You reach down and grab it.  His lips part.  

“You’re always ready, aren’t you?” you ask. 

“For you? Hell yeah.” 

You stroke him gently, assuming he would stop you if it was a bad idea. He doesn't.  His grunts and sighs echo off the tile. “All yours, baby,” he murmurs.  He puts his hands around your waist and watches as his hips thrust into your fist. When he’s about to come, he says, “Guess anywhere goes?” taking his cock from you.  He points it at your stomach.

To hell with it. You kneel down. “Tits,” you say.  

“Fuck yeah, baby.”  He breathes audibly and you watch tension spread across his face.  Then he shoots a huge load all over your chest with a long groan that echoes and makes you ache for him.  

He helps you to your feet.  “Still need my head between those legs, baby.”

“Do you mind if I, uh-” you look down at the cum on your chest.

“Sure, pumpkin.”  He quickly washes and rinses himself, and gives you a light slap on the ass as he steps out to let you finish bathing. 

-

You dry off, wipe the mirror with your hand, and use his mouthwash.  Then you step into his bedroom with a towel wrapped around you, tucked under your armpits.  His hair is fluffier again.  He has on pj pants but still no shirt. He sits down on the edge of the bed and looks up at you, captivated.  He murmurs, "c'mere," and spreads his knees.  You stand between his knees and he unfastens your towel, letting it drop around your feet.  “So fuckin’ hot,” he whispers, his eyelids heavy as though hypnotized by your body. “How ya keep your hands off yourself, hmm? Body like this.”

He takes your breast in his mouth and closes his eyes as he sucks at your nipple and palms the other one.  He moans, "Mm," into your mouth.  He releases your breast and gently pulls you by the hamstrings toward his lap.  You straddle him. Your naked cunt dampens his pants as you meet his warm package, already semi-hard again. 

Fuck, it’s all you want. You can’t get enough of it. Watching him jack off only made you want it more. 

He lies back on the bed, taking you with him then rolls over so he’s on top of you.  He slowly kisses his way down your naked body, his lips brushing away the remaining water droplets in your cleavage and belly button.  Between your legs, it's even slicker than before the shower.

He slides off the bed and kneels on the floor at the foot of it.  He pulls you by your thighs so his head is right between your naked legs. “God damn, you got the juiciest pussy,” he whispers right to it.  He plants his nose at your entrance then drags it upward, slickening your clit before digging into your cunt with his tongue and lips.  He moans and grunts as he devours you.  When he thrusts his tongue into you, all you can think about is his cock and how bad you want it.  

“Fuck,” you breathe. “Joel,” you say. 

He looks up at you from between your legs but doesn’t stop.  He knows you’re enjoying it, why should he?

“Stop,” you say.  “Come up here.” 

He knows what you want.  You can see it in his eyes.  He rests his head on your inner thigh and asks with puppy dog eyes, “Why? Don’t like it?” He knows you do. 

“It’s not what I want.”

“What do you want?”

“I think you know what I want.”  Your hips lift and your legs try to lift him toward you by his underarms.

“Hell yeah, I do,” he says and palms himself.  “But lemme hear it, baby.  Just this once.” He plants a kiss on your clit and swirls his tongue, looking up at you.  

You sigh.  “I want your cock.”

“Damn right,” he says and takes his pants off.  He takes his time making his way back up your body.  Far too much time when you’re desperate to be filled. 

“Jesus, give it to me,” you beg. 

“Ohh, I’ll give it to ya,” he says.  He reaches down and fingers you, then nudges your asshole, using your slick to push the top section of one digit inside.  

You gasp. 

“Ya like that?” he asks. 

You moan softly.  “God, I just want you inside me,” you beg. 

“Yeah, baby.” He removes his fingers and uses his other hand to drag the head of his cock through your slick. 

“Now,” you whisper and grab his wrist, stopping him with the head of his cock at your entrance. 

“Yeah, baby.”  

He presses forward and nestles his cock for entry.  “Yeah,” you nod.  "Now."

“Fuck yeah,” he breathes. 

When your bodies are aligned, the clean skin of his stomach against yours is a feeling you didn’t realize you needed so badly. 

He shoves his length into you with a grunt.  You moan softly as your body accepts him, then you bite your lip.   

“Don’t hold back on me now, sugar,” he murmurs, staring down at you darkly. “Tell me what ya want.” 

“Fuck me,” you say. 

He smirks and backs up enough to slam into you again, watching your mouth fall open with his girth.  He retreats once again and slowly fills you to the brim. Too slowly.  Then he slams into you again and slowly backs up. You moan unrestrained and wrap your legs around him, using all your leg strength to pull him closer into you.  

“Fuck me, really fuck me,” you beg him, “Faster,” you say. 

“Think about it all the time, don’t ya,” he says as he continues fucking you slowly. 

You nod. 

“Hell yeah,” he says as he moves his hips and buries his cock inside you, accelerating but barely. 

“All the time,” you say, and he speeds up a little more. “Fuck me,” you beg him.

“Yeah, I’ll fuck ya,” he whispers, and finally he does.  

He rails you at a perfect rhythm. He watches your tits bounce, occasionally dipping his head for a taste of your skin. He plants his mouth on your neck and marks you. It barely takes any time at all until your spine is arching and he’s saying “yeah, come for me, baby.” 

As you see stars and flutter around him, he says, “God damn you look hot when you come on this cock."  He fucks you through it and doesn't stop. "So damn hot," he repeats. A minute later he bottoms out with a shudder and pulses into you. It isn’t as much as usual given that he just emptied himself in the shower but his stamina sure is impressive for his age. He rolls over and lies on his back next to you.  

“That’s where it’s at, baby,” he pants.  “All about communication.”  He goes to the bathroom and washes up then pulls on his pajama pants.  He goes back out to the couch while you get dressed again.  You're too physically satisfied to feel bad about asking for it.

-

When you join him on the couch, he’s gotten the weed box out and he’s rolling a joint.  

“Not for me,” you say.  “I should really go.”  

“Still rainin’,” he says.  

“Barely,” you shrug. 

He looks at you and nods.  “Alright, pumpkin.  ‘Least lemme give you a ride.” He squeezes your thigh and stands up. 

-

He stops his car in front of your house and your aunt comes to the window then walks away.  Joel sees her and sighs.  

“What?” you ask him. 

“Nothin’. See ya around, pumpkin.”  You go around to the basement entry.

Your Aunt knocks on the basement door soon after you’re inside. 

“Was that Joel Miller dropping you off?” she asks. 

“Why?” you ask. Her eyes fall on your neck and you cover it casually.

“Oh, honey,” she says.  Then she  just shakes her head.  “That man is trouble. He’s probably shagged half the neighborhood.” 

It’s just gossip, but your heart still drops. “He was giving me a ride.”

She looks at you skeptically.  “A ride from the back of the neighborhood?”

You don’t have an answer. “How do you know that for sure about him?”

She puffs out her cheeks and exhales.  “Guess I don’t.  Ask anyone, though. He’s got them coming and going at all hours.” 

You swallow, waiting for her to say something else, then say, “We’re just friends.  Was there anything else you wanted to talk about?”

“Just be careful, honey.” She starts to go back up the stairs then comes back down. "Actually yeah, there's someone your uncle wants introduce you to. Real nice boy he works with."

"Uh - okay," you stammer.

"Great," she nods, "I'll tell him." Then she finally leaves you alone.

-

You have a lot of questions you don’t want to ask.  You know Joel’s not a good guy.  The last thing you should do is get more entangled with him.  You're not thinking with a clear head and you know it. 

You lay down on your bed, exhausted, and plug in your phone.  When it turns on, it chimes with a text from a new number.  The text on your lock screen says “Hate me ‘cause they ain’t me.”  You roll your eyes and crack a a smile. Sounds like Joel knew what your aunt would say to you.  At least he’s aware of his reputation? Is that a good thing?  How does he have your number?

You open the text, trying to think of what to say.  There’s an earlier message from him. It's from overnight - a topless photo of you.  You remember now - he said you should see how hot you looked.  You posed for him and gave him your number to send it.

Thank you so much for reading and engaging!

[rebo-chan]

Okay so I make a lot of canon-adjacent posts. *gestures at my food post* very canon very important very informative. But my heart is full of whimsy and magic and sugar and spice and everything nice.

Today I wanted to talk about some of my hcs that I have regarding Tsuna and Reborn. Shit I just completely made up ^v^ I'll do five each to not make this a long post again rkehns.

Tsuna:

Grows up to really like coffee like his mentor, but could never really stand straight espresso. From my food post research, I saw that he is a snack food fiend. So, I think he's the type to enjoy lattes, frappuccinos, and mocha. What I'm saying is that he walks into Vongola meetings with a iced coffee and he stress-drinks it for the sugar rush.

Good with kids! I don't think he wants kids of his own, because he has enough of those, but he's the perfect balance of playful and strict. I do think though, if he did become a parent by some accident, he'd be the stricter one of the two. Mom is gonna be the fun one and Dad is the one that brings crazy things around you, but tries to put you to bed at 8pm.

Still a bit of a dumbass as a mafia boss. The moment he found out he has to give salaries to people and try to tax that shit and file it with their IRS but also do the calculations himself, since technically he shouldn't show that information to Gokudera or anyone else that will know how to Math. He lives each paycheck day in fear that he will wake up the next morning and get arrested for fraud.

Actually bars anyone from bringing in pets to Vongola HQ. Believes they have their hands full with their box animals. "No, Yamamoto please we can't keep the box of stray puppies lets take that to a shelter -" "Gokudera, I see that you have a kitten in your pocket where.. where did you get it.." "Hibari.. Carry on, ignore me :)"

Has developed noise-cancelling ears. Doesn't hear the screams anymore. An ally family will comment on the noise at Vongola HQ and Tsuna will be like "..wdym? :o do you hear something?" Look around and will completely ignore Fuuta and I-Pin strapping Lambo to a medical desk as they are threatened by Bianchi, who is putting on sterile gloves and getting the scalpel. The silence though? The silence scares him. (WHAT A SOMBER LINE TO LEAVE OFF ON)

Reborn:

Super good with the ladies. I know this is something said in the story, but I mean the type that has the whole casual flirting with no weight to it thing down. But, also a little bit standoffish, like you'll never really get to know him this way. It's very strategic, but he does it for fun!!

Tries to teach Tsuna how to hide a body on multiple occasions, in case he ever needs it, but mostly to torment Tsuna. "You can't incinerate all your enemies to ash everytime, it'll get really obvious after awhile. You have to spice it up. Now, put on these gloves. I have someone for us to use" "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE SOMEONE?"

I've said this one before, but it deserves saying again! I've always believed that pre-curse, his cosplay skills had real use! It was something he would use to sneak into buildings into or seduce who he needed to, before he brings the gun to their head. Very comfortable in skirts, dresses, wigs, makeup, etc. Wears his new identities like a second skin.

He snickers and sneers and smirks his way throughout the series (or does a lil maniacal evil laugh), but I bet his real laugh, uncursed, is deep and low. Something he keeps just in his throat, not loud at all. A softened version of his smirk on his face, pleased and relaxed. If you weren't paying attention, you'd miss it as he flips back into his regular demeanor.

LOVES judging things. Always the referee in their games (Snowfight!). Taste-testing (Mochi chapter!). Anything. He's judgmental and you WILL hear his opinion. I fully believe in the three criminal brothers episode, where Nana gets him coffee beans from a shop, he gets straight home afterwards and stands on the counter with his hands on his hips as it brews. He was prepared. Tsuna buys new snacks so Reborn opens all of them to take a bite and decide which one he likes best before taking it, leaving Tsuna with a bunch of opened bags. Ranks the guardians on obscure shit just to get them riled up "Most likely to win at a dance competition in a chicken suit" and he'll put Yamamoto above Gokudera just to watch him fume. A villain. I love him.

OKAY EVERYONE, THAT'S ALL I'LL DO FOR TODAY. Thank you for reading this far I hope you enjoyed reading it. PLEASE give me your hcs, I'd love to hear them. I need a lil pick me up c: It can be any character. Someday, I might do hcs for the other charas too. I think.. a lot about these guys. OKAY THANKS BYE !!!

-

Yjii shielded her face from the incoming attacks of Seugnmin’s targeted wrath with using plushies as a weapon.

“Stop smacking me with PuppyM, this is animal abuse!”

Seugnmin laughed at her failed attempt to reel back her figure each time the chibi sized stuffed animal connected with her face, continuing his vicious barrage against the girl.

“Well at least you finally admitted it,” Seungmin commented, a shit eating grin forming across his features.

A brief silence settled amongst the two until the literal lightbulb went off over Yiji’s head.

“Wait.. am I the animal?”

Seugnmin said nothing as he continued to laugh obnoxiously at her sudden realization.

“Kim Seungmin am I the animal?!”

CUT

“Seungmin! Yiji! Seung-yi room!”

Yiji’s eyes lit up as she made her way onto the familiar set once more, scents of vanilla emanated from the two perfectly crafted cupcakes with an off-white frosting that sat smack-dab in the center of the coffee table. Each of their SKZOO’s were tucked cutely beside a letter board that spelled out “Seung-yi”, decorated with smalls appliqués of stars and hearts.

“Seugnminnnn,” Yiji whined, extending her arms out in-front of her, signifying that she was in desperate need of a hug from her favorite person on the planet.

Seungmin was completely unfazed by Yiji’s antics, allowing her to plop down beside him and wrap her arms tightly around his torso as she proceeded to squeeze the life out of him.

“Are you the hulk now or what?” Seungmin teased, poorly attempting to look anywhere else besides the twinkling babydoll eyes Yiji had come to master over the years.

CUT

Talk about YIJI x SEUNGMIN

Hyunjin: Seungmin is Yiji’s boyfriend

Han: I thought I was her boyfriend?

Jeongin: What kind of conversation is this?

Hyunjin: Yiji likes Seungmin a lot, she is most affectionate with him

Jeongin: She acts so cute with him.. it is odd, he secretly enjoys her silliness

CUT

“STAYs really enjoy seeing us together”, Seungmin confessed as he dove his plastic fork into the cupcake before him.

“Ah, really? We’re popular then”.

Yiji always found Seungmin to be endearing, even if the time in each other’s presence was spent doing something as simple as talking, it was always meaningful.

“We used to be semi-roommates when we first debuted” Yiji spoke, thinking back to a memory that seemed so far away now. “You and Jisung fought every once in a while so, I would sleep in his bed and he would lock himself in my bedroom across the dorm”.

Seungmin closed his eyes gently, almost as if he was trying to transport himself back to five years ago.

Things were a lot different then.

“Jisung is a sensitive person I think, and back then there were a lot of misunderstandings because our humor did not mesh well all time”, he confessed. “You helped a lot in that way, by simply being there rather than trying to get in-between things.

Yiji nodded along as he spoke, exhaling a slight hum to confirm each point in the conversation.

“It was really lonely for me at first when I moved into the hyune-racha dorm, I missed hanging out in your space”, she confessed as she let her head fall atop of Seungmin’s shoulder.

“I missed hanging out with you too”.

CUT

Chan: When Yiji and Seungmin first met they didn’t interact much at all outside of schedules

Changbin: Yi-An has a cold exterior that takes time to understand, they’re opposites in that way

Chan: Yiji relies a lot on Seungmin when recording too, her singer is Kim Seungmin

Minho: Ah, don’t tell Hyunjin that he will be heart broken

Changbin: Seungmin has changed Yiji as a person in different ways, that is why they’re a lot closer lately

CUT

“Do you remember our first flight to K-CON after we debuted?” Seungmin asked in a sly tone, indicating he had some sort of sarcastic ulterior motive.

Abruptly, Yiji rolled her eyes and removed her head from the comfortable spot on his shoulder. Releasing a loud groan, she sighed knowing exactly where he was going with bringing up this memory.

“Do not retell this story”, she whined, smacking him playfully on the arm. “It’s embarrassing”.

Yiji has gone through so much, each of her insecurities and fears are things Seungmin wishes he could keep locked away, buried beneath the earth in an impenetrable box that no one would ever dare to find.

He cared deeply for her, sometimes in a way he didn’t even know he could.

Yiji deserved someone who was determined to understand her and without saying anything at all, Seungmin grabbed hold of that responsibility and had no intention of ever letting it go.

Before he could become too absorbed in his thoughts, Seungmin continued. “You were absolutely terrified of flying to the point your legs were wobbling like a little baby deer”.

Followed by a dramatic noise of protest, Yiji shamefully hid behind both of her hands.

Admiration and contentment, Yiji let her walls down around Seungmin and he did the same. He made it safe for her to feel. An unspoken bond that the both of them treasured immensely.

“Kim Seungmin”, Yiji spoke softly, separating her fingers to peak out

“Yeah?”

Just as Yiji was about to finish her thought, she pursed her lips slowly, her mind to continuing to wander amongst the many reasons she was eternally grateful for Seungmin.

“I think you and I were meant to meet in this life”, she smiled, now allowing herself to look at him wholly. “You have made me into a worth-while person”.

TO SEUNGMIN FROM YIJI:.

To the little devil on my shoulder ٩(^‿^)۶

You have brought so much fun in the form of chaos to my life. My devious singer, Kim Seungmin. I can’t wait to grow old with you and be idols until we retire >:’)

#SeungYi forever <3

TO YIJI FROM SEUNGMIN:.

To my favorite roommate

Yi-An Jihae, I am glad I got to meet you in this life too. I like your smile even more these days.

p.s. you are the animal..

Let's Talk Turkey

Summary: Alex calls Henry to talk turkey. Henry's POV of Red, White & Royal Blue, Chapter Four, pages 76-82

Rating: All

Word Count: 2,179

AO3 Link

Henry was no stranger to insomnia. Three o’clock in the morning was a less than comforting time for him to be awake, but a familiar time nonetheless. It was quiet, it was peaceful; he was overtired enough to be entirely without thought, but awake enough to focus on the finer details of the latest episode of Bake Off. Until his phone chimed that is.

Alex Claremont-Diaz [3:02 AM]

THEY KNOW

He frowned at his phone. There was nothing new about receiving a text message from one Alex Claremont-Diaz, but the familiar name on his screen still sent bubbles of excitement through him. 

Alex Claremont-Diaz [3:02 AM]

THEY KNOW I HAVE ROBBED THEM OF FIVE-STAR ACCOMMODATIONS TO SIT IN A CAGE IN MY ROOM, AND THE MINUTE I TURN MY BACK THEY ARE GOING TO FEAST ON MY FLESH.

The confusion only lasts a moment before the realization dawns, and a chuckle erupts from between Henry’s lips. Right, the turkeys. A stupid tradition in his opinion, and Alex is completely correct to be upset about it, but the turn of events where he was now on turkey duty was just plain hilarious.

Please send photos

Henry is only half disappointed when a photo comes through, and it wasn’t of Alex shirtless in his bed. He’d been privy to sending those as of late, and every time without fail it sent Henry into a horny, lovesick tailspin… he’d never responded to one of Alex’s bedtime selfies out of self preservation.

He’d seen turkeys before, and Cornbread didn’t look any different than any other turkey, but he was truly hideous. The beady eyes, wrinkled skin, it unsettled him to no end. 

I think he’s cute

Alex Claremont-Diaz [3:05 AM]

that’s because you can’t hear all the menacing gobbling

Yes, famously the most sinister of all animal sounds, the gobble

Before he could even lower his phone and go back to Bake Off, his phone was ringing.

INCOMING CALL

Alex Claremont-Diaz

Henry panicked. Within the first few months of their friendship, they’d actually managed to act like real adult human beings, and despite quite a lot of ribbing from either side (flirting more like it, from Henry at least), it seemed like their friendship was actually blossoming past that of some of his “stately” acquaintances. But they’d never spoken on the phone before. Sure, they’d sent each other voice notes, and the occasional snapchat video, but hearing Alex’s smooth voice, the hint of a southern accent, in real time? Enough to send Henry into a spiral. His heart raced, finger hovering over the decline call button, but at the last minute, he picked up.

“You know what, you little shit,” Oh this was more than what Henry’s poor homosexual heart could handle at this time of the night, “you can hear it for yourself and then tell me how you would handle this—”

“Alex?” Henry winced, hearing the crack in his voice. “Have you really rung me at three o’clock in the morning to make me listen to a turkey?”

“Yes, obviously.” It was the most Alex Claremont-Diaz thing he’d ever heard in his short life. Hearing Alex’s voice had him suddenly very awake, and giddy. He’d tried to tamp down the schoolboy crush on the First Son, but then he’d gone and done something stupid, like call Henry to talk turkey, and it came rushing back up to the surface with a vengeance. “Jesus Christ, it’s like they can see into your soul. Cornbread knows my sins, Henry. Cornbread knows what I have done, and he is here to make me atone.” 

While we’re on the topic of sinning… I know how you can atone. Was what Henry would have said if he threw his self control out the window. Which he was about five seconds off from doing. The thought of Alex and sinning… it was late enough to acknowledge that he’d definitely had a flash of a thought of what the dark haired man would look like on his knees.

“Let’s hear the cursed gobble, then.” 

“Okay, brace yourself.”

Henry waited… and waited… but nothing happened. The only sounds were the sounds of his own breathing. He checked to make sure the call hadn’t disconnected, but Alex was still there.

“Truly harrowing.” He said with an eye roll.

“It—okay, this is not representative. They’ve been gobbling all fucking night, I swear.”

“Sure they have.” A smile creeps onto Henry’s face, and his cheeks flushed crimson. The tit-for-tat they had going on felt an awful lot like flirting, only even for the Prince of England’s Hearts, it hadn’t come as naturally as this did. 

“No, hang on. I’m gonna… I’m gonna get one to gobble.” Henry bit his lip when he heard rustling from the other side of the phone. Alex was moving from what sounded like his crisp bed sheets, and the thought of the two of them side-by-side in bed chatting had a warm feeling spread through his chest. “Um, how do you get a turkey to gobble?”

He bit back a laugh. “Try gobbling. And see if he gobbles back.” 

“Are you serious?”

“We hunt loads of wild turkeys in the spring.” Henry supplies, unhelpfully. He also, unhelpfully, leaves out the part where that was a complete lie. “The trick is to get into the mind of the turkey.” 

“How the hell do I do that?”

He sits up straighter in bed, prompting David to turn to him questioningly. “So,” he says with a smile, patting the dog on the head, “do as I say. You have to get quite close to the turkey, like, physically.” Henry once again holds back a giggle as he hears Alex move. “Make eye contact with the turkey. Do you have it?”

“Yeah.”

Henry’s breath hitched at how deep and breathy Alex’s voice sounded. It was intimate, oddly so, for what they were actually talking about.

He shook his head and put on his director’s hat, pulling from memories of visiting his dad on set and all the ridiculous things he’d heard filmmakers say.

“Right, now hold it.” He dipped his voice down low, trying his best to hide his smile. “Connect with the turkey. Earn the turkey’s trust… befriend the turkey… buy a summer home in Majorca with the turkey—”

“Oh I fucking hate you!”

A deep laugh erupted from Henry, and for a second, he forgot it was three A.M. and the rest of the palace, hell the rest of the country was sleeping. It was just him and his crush bonding over Alex’s turkey trauma. In the background, he could hear a faint gobble, which sent him into another fit of laughter, this one earning a dissatisfied groan from a sleeping David.

“Goddamnit, did you hear that?”

“Sorry, what? I’ve been stricken deaf.”

“You’re such a dick.”

Talking turkey with Alex weirdly enough felt incredibly natural. The fear Henry felt before picking up the call had completely dissipated as soon as he’d heard Alex’s smooth voice, and their banter paddled back and forth with ease. 

The conversation had turned to utter nonsense so quickly, and as much as Bea and Pez were totally in the know about his gay disaster antics, he was absolutely never telling them about this.

“Raptors in my bedroom, Henry. And you want me to go to sleep like they’re not gonna bust out of their enclosures and take over the island the minute I close my eyes? Okay. Maybe your white ass.”

“I’m really going to have you offed. You’ll never see it coming.  Our assassins are trained in discretion. They will come in the night, and it will look like a humiliating accident.”

“Autoerotic asphyxiation?” Henry spluttered. Oh no, he thought, Alex absolutely can not make this sexual, his poor heart couldn’t take that.

He had to slow down the conversation the only way he knew how. “Toilet heart attack. You’ve been warned.” Nailed it. 

“I thought you’d kill me in a more personal way. Silk pillow over my face, slow and gentle suffocation. Just you and me. Sensual.” Henry’s head thumped against the headboard as he let out a rush of air. Could it possible that Alex was… flirting? The entire night’s antics were fairly tame so far, but you and me, and sensual ran through his mind on repeat faster than anything else ever had. This could be a slippery slope, one he wouldn’t be able to dig himself out of if it went wrong, one that could possibly out him to not only an entire nation, but the entire world if it went horribly sideways. Not that he thought Alex would out him, but… well Henry had dealt with these hot popular jock types before, and it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. 

“Ha. Well.” 

It only took a few more minutes of flirting for David to get visibly annoyed with Henry keeping him awake, and for him to wander back over and lick at his hand. And with David came Bea’s devil of a cat, Mr. Wobbles. God only knew how they were friends and didn’t fight like, well, like cats and dogs. 

Alex seemed amused by Henry’s own, albeit friendlier, bedroom petting zoo, and Henry tried to ignore the hint of fondness in Alex’s voice. 

“So you like Bake Off, huh?” Cutecutecutecutecute, Henry’s mind was still reeling from Alex calling his insomnia activity cute.

“It’s just so soothing.”

Their easy back and forth was cut off abruptly after an hour by Alex’s yawn. Henry knew it was ass-o’clock in the morning, but he didn’t want to hang up, didn’t want this easy exchange to go away. But he knew Alex wasn’t someone he could have, and it was best to cut it off early than to be disappointed by what could have been later.

“Alex. The turkeys are not going to Jurassic Park you. You’re not the bloke from Seinfeld. You’re Jeff Goldblum. Go to sleep.”

It was quiet on the other end of the line, and Henry wonders if Alex had maybe drifted off on his own accord.

“You go to sleep.” It may have been wishful thinking, but he could almost hear the bitten back smile in his voice.

It was childish, it definitely didn’t mean anything, but it felt like a turning point in their relationship. Henry couldn’t help his own smile as he lay back, settling into his pillow. “I will.”

“Okay. But like, why if they gobble again?”

Henry shook his head. “Go sleep in June’s room, you numpty.”

“Okay.”

“Okay.”

“Okay.”

Henry loved romance novels, he’d enjoyed the occasional romantic comedy film, although he never quite understood some of the actions of the main characters. Until now that is. He used to roll his eyes whenever anyone dared utter the words “you hang up first”, but now here he was. He didn’t want to do it. Henry didn’t want to be the one to hang up this call, and end whatever impasse they’d found themselves standing at.

But it was four in the morning, and he had an appearance to make in the morning.

“Okay.” It was a bittersweet goodbye. “So. Good night.”

“Cool. Good night.”

The click of the phone was startling after a solid hour of easy conversation, and the silence in his room was suddenly absolutely deafening. He’d gone from feeling like Alex was right beside him, to the stark realization that it was a fantasy he’d never get to experience. 

He’d quickly been making his way up the ranks towards being one of Henry’s best friends, but the knowledge that that’s all they’d be left Henry sighing into his pillow. 

David had sidled up to one side of him, resting his head on the pillow beside Henry, and Mr. Wobbles to his other side. He felt like they knew, without understanding any of these silly human emotions, they knew that Henry needed the extra love tonight so he wouldn’t be lonely. 

A ping from his phone cut through the silence suddenly, startling him into action.

Alex Claremont-Diaz [4:15 A.M.]

i sent pics of turkeys so i deserve pics of your animals too

Henry chuckled and decided it was high time he try to match one of Alex’s infamous bed selfies. He mussed his hair up a bit as to not look too pristine, and threw one of his arms above his head, hoping he looked nonchalant, and not like he was trying to show off his bicep. (Although he quite liked the way the deep blue of his sleep shirt contrasted with his pale skin, and the short sleeve was tight enough to accentuate the muscle he did have.)

It took a few tries to get the angle right, to get both animals looking their cutest, and to get his face to look as relaxed as possible, but he couldn’t hide the flush that painted his cheeks. 

Before he could think about it too much, he chose the best photo and hit “send”

This is what I must endure

Good night, honestly.

Slippy Rewatches: ATOTS, Episode 2

Next up for Friend Who Needs Recaps Right Now: ATOTS, Episode 2.

This is going to be extra-funny because I haven’t watched this show in about two years so I barely remember the set-up.  But ALSO, this was my first Thai BL, so I had no idea how many tropes I was swimming in, which ought to make this really fun to come back to.

What I remember of ep 1 is basically: Tian, The Most Beautiful Boy In The World, is a spoiled rich brat with heart problems who gets into a car accident and has a heart transplant.  But I don’t know where we left off. The “previously on” reminds me that the person he got the heart from was a volunteer teacher in a rural area of Thailand, and Tian decides he needs to go find and teach this volunteer teacher’s class to fulfill her wishes.  And there he met Chief Phupha, our tsundere, bless him, and they stared at each other weirdly for a while.

AND NOW, episode 2:

We’re flashing back to how Tian got to be a teacher, i guess!  He shows up at the foundation that sponsors the teachers, with Teacher Torfun’s lanyard in his hand.  I am immediately losing my shit because I’m so much more immersed in the Thai BL cinematic universe than I was when I watched this, and have just realized that Torfun is Pearmai from “Be My Favorite”, and the head of the foundation plays dads in like three other shows I’ve watched.  Oh, man.  This is going to be an EXPERIENCE.

Tian rolls up with his application which reads "Hello, I would like to be a teacher in this specific rural village, my qualifications are that I am very pretty."

Foundation Head Guy recognizes his name and says kindly, "hey, rich boy, you are not going to want to live on the salary or in the lifestyle that rural volunteer teachers get, please go home and roll around on your bed of money or at least let us send you somewhere with running water. Don't be the jerk rich kid who burns our foundation's money and goodwill on going off to teach, fucking around with the lives of the local population, and coming home again a week later."

Tian: "Yes but have you SEEN how pretty I am?  Also I am being really earnest about this."

Foundation Guy asks Tian what the most difficult thing in his life is, and before he can say, "I maybe killed someone and took her heart and it might have made me gay if I wasn’t already?” we smash cut into the credits.  I forgot how cute these credits were!  Fuck, I’m gonna end up rewatching this whole show

*******************

And now we’re back to the village, where Tian is trying and failing to get a signal on his cell phone.  He gives up and gathers his towel to go explore his bathing situation, only to basically trip over the Chief perched outside his little cottage waiting to take him to the school.

Tian would like to take a bath, and Chief does a life-ruining little smirk and leads him away down the path. Tian brushes his teeth along the way to what he thinks is going to be his bath, and that's how he ends up at his new school, with a bath towel slung over his shoulder, still brushing his teeth, to meet his assorted youths.

The youths are five adorable moppets.  Four of them are full of questions and one of them is asleep.  (One of them is also wearing a shirt that says "Snatch: The Best Thing On Earth".) Tian hits up Ranger Yod to find out what the schedule is and if there's a lesson plan.  Yod nominally thinks there should be lessons in the morning and play in the afternoon, but also thinks that it's Tian's first day so if he wants to just send everyone home now that's fine.  Yod would be the teacher who shows movies all year long with only vague relation to the curriculum.

Tian makes a vague effort to start an animal-guessing game but Ayi, the kids' ringleader, apparently just leaves school when he's bored, and now he is bored  So he gets up and leaves, with all the other kids following him.  Which means that when Chief shows up again the schoolroom is just Tian, sulking because he hasn't had a bath and the kids have better things to do than play with him.

Chief glowers a little but actually takes pity on Tian and agrees to show him what his new bathing situation is going to be like.

Oh.  Oh, man.  I think we’re about to get to something I remember very fondly.  Let’s GO.

****************

Okay, so Chief leads Tian and his bath towel off to a waterfall-and-stream situation.  Very picturesque.

Tian: So we don’t have bathtubs here?

Chief: Look, city boy, I can drive you to the city if you can’t hack bathing like a villager.

Tian: I’m fine, go away.

Chief: Conveniently, the other side of this river is a dangerous border where skirmishes happen so I am duty-bound to stand here and watch you bathe.  In case ruffians try to kidnap you.  While you’re naked.

Tian: FINE but can you turn AROUND while I wade into the water fully clothed?

Chief: FINE

Chief: immediately starts peeking at Tian and his wet clinging shirt situation as he wades into the quiet of the stream. It’s CUTE.

Chief turns away for a minute to get a product-placement drink and when he turns back, Tian is MISSING.  Because he is HIDING because he is a BRAT.  The upshot of this is that Chief leaps in to save him and ends up shirtless and wet and cranky about how into brat-taming he is.

And this?  This moment here?  This was when I simultaneously met Earth Pirapat’s tattoos, and Thai BL’s love of lingering product-placement shots where beautiful shirtless men suck down cool beverages in loving close-up while we watch their throats bob.  This moment changed my life, I think. JFC. Who allowed it.

This moment is also changing Tian’s life, he is doing the MOST minx-y little lowered-eyelashes side-eye at Chief’s nipples.

********************************

Presumably he did not immediately blow the Chief, but we will never know because we cut back to them arriving back at Tian’s cottage, where Yod has brought lunch.  Yod is like, funny that you went swimming, when you have your own little outhouse and bathing situation out back, I just asked the villagers to bring you a full water jar and everything so you can bucket-bathe yourself!

Tian: Oh my god I hate the Chief. 

Chief: gives Tian the WORST little smirk.

Oh my god, I forgot what a little shit he secretly is. 

Tian goes in and changes and we get a look at his gnarly chest scar while he stares pensively in the mirror for a while and, oh, THAT’S why he went into the stream fully clothed, I forgot he’s hiding his cardiac patient situation.  What a terrible idea, Tian.  TELL SOMEONE.

********************

It’s time to meet the village chief!  His name is Khama or maybe his title is Khama? Anyway, he’s nice to Tian but also wonders why Torfun didn’t come back?

Chief: Torfun’s…um.  Busy?  Definitely not dead.  Ha ha ha.

Tian, side-eyeing Chief: Yeah, I too know nothing about Torfun’s hypothetical death. 

Khama is genial and delightful, and his wife has prepared a huge meal to welcome Tian, including a very special dish of pig brain.  Everyone including Chief is leaning in real close to watch Tian try it. This is clearly a fun thing they do to city people, feeding them spicy pig brain to see if they can be cool or will freak out.

What is this Wang-Yibo-ass facial expression on the Chief?

Tian is like, “awesome, excellent pig brain, thank you!” and then proceeds to have a flashback to his transplant doctor explaining that to avoid rejection of his new heart he should live in hygienic places and not eat spicy or unusual foods, while Khama explains the ten different spicy dishes on the table.

It’s fine, this is fine.  I’m not at all worried about Tian’s heart, as Chief basically eggs him on to prove he can eat spicy food.  Tian, TELL SOMEONE, Chief is a brat too but he wouldn’t try to actually KILL YOU if he knew your whole deal.

Khama also mentions that his song Longtae is about Tian’s age and is studying in the city, but will be back to visit this weekend. Tian wants to see the cliff nearby for no particular reason (it’s because he read about it in Torfun’s journal) and Khama is like, yeah, my son can be your tour guide!  But if you want to go before then, take Chief, because it’s too dangerous to go alone.

Tian says he wouldn’t want to bother such a busy and important guy, and Tian and Chief hate-fuck each other with their eyes for a while.  Khama eats more spicy pork.  He’s having such a good time, I love him.  

*********************

Later at night, Chief walks Tian home and discovers that the city boy doesn’t know about mosquito netting and got fully destroyed by mosquitos.  So now it’s time for a Sexy Mosquito Netting scene where Chief fully kabedons Tian to show him how to put up the netting.  Love it, zero notes.

And then, because we are still in the pulling-each-other’s-pigtails stage of this relationship, Chief takes the whole thing down, tells Tian to do it himself to get practice, warns him about ghosts, and fucks off back to his base.  Tian gets the net up, but then he has to go use the outhouse while he’s terrified of ghosts, poor city boy.

Meanwhile back at the base, Chief has pulled out a wooden flute, had a flashback to Torfun giving it to him, and now he is staring mournfully into the fire while tootling a tune on the flute.  My recollection is that when I first watched this with friend Hoyden, I started howling because I was having a full Lan Xichen flashback, but she had not yet watched The Untamed and just thought I had completely lost my mind.

Anyway: Chief’s having a real Moment here.

***********************

The next morning Yod picks Tian up to take him to class - apparently that’s usually his job, Chief just did it yesterday as a special First Day of School thing.  They detour through the fields and learn that the village’s chief economic engines are growing tea and sewing.  Tian asks him about the cliff too because he is just going to be Extremely Normal about the cliff, and Yod is like, yeah, it’s over there, but if you take the wrong turn you end up in Ghost Hill. Also very normal.  If you end up in Ghost Hill without doing the right rituals, the ghosts kill you.  So again the takeaway is: please wait for an escort to the cliff.

And now we meet another ranger, Rang, who’s happy to do some introductions and some gossip.  Apparently Yod and Rang both know that Torfun died, but Chief told them not to tell the villagers.  They are standing a few feet away from the villagers during this conversation.  The rangers are not stealthy.

Then we go to school, where Tian is finding out the kids are more advanced than he expected - he was going to teach them letters, but Torfun already taught them letters. And numbers. The kids are bored as shit.

Tian, desperate: Hey, okay, but did Torfun ever take you on a FIELD TRIP? To the WATERFALL that’s like TWO MINUTES FROM A DANGEROUS BORDER?

Rang and Yod know this is a terrible idea and Rang peaces the fuck out to go find Chief and let him know Tian is going rogue.

***********

Chief is off in the city meanwhile, meeting with his doctor who is also his friend.  Did we meet this character in episode 1 or is this the first time we meet him?  I remember liking this character, I think. 

Doctor Friend: Hey so I heard your new teacher is a hot twink and you’ve been paying him a lot of attention.

Chief: LOOK he is a MENACE and I am DOING MY JOB.

Doctor Friend: Okay SURE.  Now I am going to talk about how Torfun was in love with you, so you can get weird and sad.

Chief: *soulful eyes*

****************

Tian is taking the kids on a nature walk and has finally found something they don’t know - how to name colors in English.  So they’re having a good time learning English words for things, while Yod panics and flails about how Chief is going to murder him for this. 

It’s all sort of nice, until Yod gets called back to base right as the kids are clamoring to be allowed to swim in the river.

Tian: This will be fine.

Yod: Will it?

Tian: Absolutely, go back to base, I got this.

Tian does not got this.  Everyone splashes around and has fun for a while and then OOPS one of the kids (Kalae) is drowning.  Which, let us note, Tian fails to even notice until one of the other kids is like, hey, is that, uh, is that what’s supposed to be happening?

Tian pulls Kalae out of the water and is just starting to try to figure out how to revive him when Chief and Yod arrive with Doctor Friend.  Kalae is quickly saved and hustled off to the med center to recover.  Doctor Friend pulls Chief off to the side to be like, okay, kid’s saved, now go tend to the twink teacher, he looked absolutely devastated.

Chief: Well maybe he shouldn’t have LET A CHILD DROWN.

Doctor Friend: You have a point, but he’s a brand-new teacher and he’s trying, please don’t actually murder him.

So Chief storms off to Tian’s place to yell at him about how he can’t just show up and be careless with these children’s lives and education as some sort of holiday from his life.  He’s right, and Tian knows it, and Tian heads inside and starts to pack to leave.

But Doctor Friend may have done some good work here, because Chief rolls his eyes and takes a deep breath and is like, okay, but actually don’t be a huge baby and walk out on them either.  

Tian reaches out to pack Torfun’s lanyard and now we’re back to the flashback at the beginning, where he was asked what his most difficult experience was.  Apparently his answer was “I almost died, but now I have a second chance and I want to use it to do something for others.”

Foundation Guy told him to remember the way he feels and come back to it when he’s feeling discouraged by hard experiences.    Which Tian does, and decides that he WILL stay and finish out his term.

Chief has about six face emotion journeys about his complicated feelings about this terrible beautiful twink, and then is like well OKAY then.  But please stop DROWNING CHILDREN.  And then they stare at each other intensely for a while as we go to credits.

And then post-credit scene!

We’re back to Tian and Chief walking home after the visit to Khama, and Chief pulls a huge bag of instant noodles out of his rucksack so Tian won’t actually starve.

Chief: You know how to make a fire and boil water, right?

Tian: …….

So then Chief makes some noodles for Tian, who pretends he’s not hungry, but then eats them anyway, and Chief makes the satisfied eyes of someone whose caretaking kink has just been activated.  And then scolds him into saying thank you properly to an older man who has done something nice for him and, woof, yeah, there are some cultural/language layers there I didn’t get at first watch.

And then they just stare at each other for a while in beautiful flickering firelight, and yeah.  Fuck.  I have to rewatch the rest of this show now. Fuck.

this way to: episode 3 recap

[casliveblog]

Custom Toonami Block Week 168 Rundown

Spy X Family: We’re back to the two vignette format which I’m not the biggest fan of but what can you do. Becky wants to seduce Loid despite that being illegal for several reasons and heads over to Anya’s house to both accidentally flex her wealth and steal Yor’s man. Anya’s surprisingly on board with Operation Bed a Married Man Eight Times Your Age because Becky is rich and flashes through a montage of how cool having a rich six year old for a mom would be. Loid is just asking questions for spy intel shit cause you can never have too much of that but shenanigans ensue and Yor of course comes in and freaks out initiating a high-speed chase down the street when she thinks she’s gotten Becky sick. It’s funny because not only are the adults oblivious to the plan but like they wouldn’t take it seriously even if they knew, SHE’S SIX. Becky eventually learns to respect Yor’s strength and see her as a kind person and potentially figure out some polygamy shit I guess because now she’s just trying to prove she’s strong so Loid will like her like Yor, that makes three women trying to have a shonen tournament for this man’s oblivious affection. Speaking of which the second half of the episode is Fiona running around doing Loid’s makeup work while he’s on the cruise ship and going through a full-ass training arc to beat Yor that I’m absolutely sure will make zero difference next time they meet.

Inuyasha The Final Act: A lot’s going on in this episodes and we’re juggling like four different plotlines because The Final Act decided to say fuck it to the drawn out storytelling and be like let’s get this shit done, it’s like reverse filler. Kikyo has taken Midoriko’s soul to once again extend her fleeting life by a bit longer and reveals what I assume to have been her plan all along with purifying Naraku’s soul with the completed jewel which is why she gave him the half the jewel back when Kagome had a bunch of shards before Shard Inflation occurred, like I think she’s making a bigger deal out of this than it has to be, Naraku’s not completely invulnerable despite what she says even without his heart and there can be and are other ways to obliterate him on a molecular level but at least seeing her game plan now makes some of her previous actions make more sense. Since Kohaku has what is ostensibly the last shard standing and isn’t able to make nice with the group reminding him of his crimes, he decides to go with Kikyo and go all in on the complete the jewel plan.  Meanwhile Koga undergoes his trial to obtain the Goraishi and finally catch up with the power creep that hit like a hundred episodes ago like Koga was essentially power crept from his introduction but I do love him and the Goraishi is one of my favorite anime weapons so it’s cool to see him be the first of Final Act’s ‘oh yeah other characters besides Inuyasha probably need upgrades too’ list. Last but not least, Kagura is running from Naraku which seems kinda pointless since he literally has her heart in the palm of his hand like I don’t think it’s like cell phone signal like if she just gets far enough away from it, it won’t work. To prove this point Naraku just teleports in front of her and fucking gives her the heart back only to stab her full of poison a second later and be like ‘cool story bro, enjoy the freedom, all five minutes of it’. Meanwhile meanwhile, Sesshomaru is fighting Moryomaru and fucking breaks the Tokijin over his head and spoils the ‘imma steal all his energy’ that is every Sesshomaru fight because they made Sesshomaru way too strong so every fight has to revolve around trying to steal his power. Still once he’s done he rushes to where Kagura is to at least be with her as she dies, telling her as much that he came to see her which is a frightening display of honesty and openness for Sesshomaru, like their relationship kinda came out of nowhere idk why Sesshomaru cares at all about her at this point and I’m not entirely sure when Kagura’s infatuation turned from ‘he’s a strong guy that can beat Naraku’ to ‘I think I kinda like him’ but it’s a good moment, like maybe it’s better paced in the manga but I do like their dynamic as the only two that really understand each other precisely because both are so guarded. Also like that Sesshomaru just tells Inuyasha that Kagura was at peace when she died instead of like ‘bitch it’s not my job to stop your women from dying’ like he did with Kikyo on Mt. Hakurei.

Castlevania: Now that all of the preamble with Dracula is out of the way, we get to our hero…ish guy, Trevor Belmont, who introduces himself as the best fighter in the world while getting his shit kicked in by a bunch of drunken nobodies and still somehow coming out on top. He makes his way around getting scraps of food and talking to marketplace people D&D vagrant style, it’s kinda funny how this kind of conveys how people in video games walk around talking to people to see what the plot is better than the Shenmue anime which is like they actually animated the video game. But yeah in classic anime hero fashion they find someone being picked on by assholes and proceed to… gruesomely dismember them, okay that’s not usually how that works but I’ll roll with it. Apparently these dudes are part of a monk-like sect his father knew and they’re kinda just chill dudes but the Church is like ‘motherfuckers the peace monks did this shit’ when Dracula comes despite the fact the church literally did this shit. And these guys are just hanging around being persecuted out of the goodness of their hearts and also because the elder’s grandkid is down looking for the Jesus-like soldier guy that’s supposed to come stop Dracula-type shit from happening, so minor conflict of interest but being the pragmatic-type hero Trevor is he just wants the peace monks to get the fuck out of dodge so that they’re still around to save anyone that’s left to be saved once everything inevitably goes to shit because if the hordes don’t get them, something more dangerous will: Catholics.  

Jujutsu Kaisen: So yeah as expected, Megudad wasn’t Edo Tensei’d just to fight Ino and then go back, turns out he’s pulling a Madara and reversing the revival and taking control of it himself because the series is really having fun with the ‘the body is the soul’ thing which basically means whatever the plot wants it to mean but they literally said a few episodes ago that it will mean whatever the plot wants it to mean so I can’t really blame them. The next most pressing issue is hand-holding guy is going around killing all the Middle Managers and he’s finally reached the two we know, Kento manages to save Ijichi and Nobara is protecting the blonde lady but hand-hold guy manages to get a blow to her jaw which I feel like ‘a blow to the jaw rattles the brain and temporarily paralyzes you’ is fiction’s new favorite fun fact about fighting because I’m seeing that around a lot lately. Shame because I feel like this guy vs Nobara would be a pretty evenly matched fight but Kento comes in and demolishes him for murdering all the mook Middle Managers. Sadly he’s not dead and as things get worse in this arc I feel like not double-tapping all the random bad guys is gonna come to bite someone in the ass but everyone’s safe for now. I don’t know how to feel about Nobara’s part in this fight because she always seems to get the ‘not now, the big boys are playing’ moments and the only reason she’s not dead is because hand holding guy is a fucking moron but the only reason she was even in trouble was because he got ridiculously lucky so idk I guess coincidences cancel each other out. Also Yuji’s come face to face with Blood Man who’s pissed his less humanoid brothers got murdered by Yuji and Nobara so that’ll be something to deal with next time. Also Mei Mei’s fighting Smallpox or something idk.

Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End: Before I begin with this episode I gotta say this is like the chilliest anime in the world like the pace is so slow and no one talks above a light tone and I think it’s an interesting way to portray the way Frieren views a slow and quietly changing world where milestones aren’t large but simply pass by one by one. Frieren is continuing to train Fern to shoot her rock and passes by several years with Heiter, enjoying an amount of time with him that she didn’t get with Himmel even if it is short and near the end of his life. Fern expresses that she wants to be fully trained by the time Heiter dies so he doesn’t have to worry about her and he can go knowing his decision to save and take care of her wasn’t in vain. It’s funny because we get to see both sides of this as Heiter’s doing this as a final act of goodwill in Himmel’s spirit. Turns out the ominous grimmoire had absolutely nothing in it as expected but unexpectedly Heiter knew that and was using it as a stalling tactic to get Frieren to train Fern to the point where Fern can join her on her journey without being a hinderance, like I feel like once Frieren got like 90% of the way through translating the grimmoire and there was no immortality she was probably safe in the assumption they weren’t gonna sneak it in on the last page but it is a cute little flip on that. Heiter tells Frieren to take Fern and go so she doesn’t have to watch him die but Frieren says fuck that shit she’s done missing out on time with people she cares about and having improper farewells on their deaths so she stays until the bitter end. Frieren and Fern then set off to… not really do much of anything honestly, Frieren seems like the kind of person that would get all the Korok seeds in Breath of the Wild you know, she’s a completionist and wants to get every kind of spell she can which is interesting because it seems magic in this world is made through a combination of fundamentals and culture so you can almost homebrew magic like messing with the source code of the mana which actually sounds really neat if that’s how it works and she can just get spells and make new ones no matter how small and simple some are. One day they come across a statue of Himmel and fix it up and Fern wants to create a spell to summon his favorite flowers from his hometown but no one’s seen it in years, so they fucking search for six months for this fucking flower which probably ranks up there as one of the most tedious sidequests of all time. Now the conflict here is kind of interesting since Frieren is now traveling with Fern she can’t just dump a decade into finding one thing for a side project she’s been working on, but also Fern has to come to understand Frieren as well and why she does things the way she does. There’s no explosion of frustration or anything they just legit quietly talk and end up figuring out a way to find the flower once all is laid bare and that’s kinda neat and it also means Fern has the patience of a fucking saint because most people would be done with this shit by now, Frieren also never really gets mad about it despite that wound likely being very fresh and her getting a little obsessive about doing something for Himmel and being a perfectionist about it HAVING to be this particular flower, I could see an alternate drama-filled version of this episode in a different writing style. The note we end on is also really nice with Frieren nothing that Fern and her both got into magic not really for any grand reason but because for a combination of enjoying it and it connecting them to people they care about, it was the choice they made, sort of reminds me of the ending of Soul, it’s more pleasure driven than purpose driven since this seems to be a show about making your own meaning out of life.

Vinland Saga: So Canute sends his rudest men to go tell Olmar to fuck off so he can kill one in a rigged fight and they can arrest the lot of them. Funny thing is Olmar STILL almost loses the rigged fight and then Thorgil gives him a pep talk to complete the rigging and then murders the rest of them which kinda ruins the plan because Thorgil’s a fucking sociopath and murders all of Canute’s guards rather than go to jail which idk why they didn’t have that stone throwing guy give Thorgil some wounds while he was murdering everyone like the guy’s basically Bullseye from Daredevil and he let the situation get completely out of hand. It’s funny how Thorgil’s like ‘yeah we murdered five to ten people but we had no choice, they were talkin’ shit’ and like really puts a fine point on how stupid this whole culture is and why Canute’s trying to change it. Also Olmar does not seem to be doing well with the reality of being a murderer even though it was almost an accident, like kid’s a little screwed up but he’s not a sociopath like his brother. Either way the three of them get away on Leif’s ship so Leif can go see Thorfinn and Canute is ready to bring war to Ketil’s farm.

Alas, it will keep me awake

LK 120: An American Manwhore in Paris

(pt1)(pt2)(pt3)(pt4)

DIC animators: "something something edutainment here's the shit we know all of you 18th cent/Antoinette/frev/amrev geeks are freaks for: that sweet sweet material culture" aww yeah we got Robe à la française errwhere.

Its ya boi, Benji Franxxx

lol both of them bout to geddit.

Fuckin' ZINGED I wouldn't even be mad if I got roasted by Benji Franx.

lol they all gonna geddit.

If I was the one who came up with that dress I would be SO MAD that it was only in there for a fraction of a moment.

lol this entire episode is the art department going FUCK YOU WE WANNA DRAW FASHIONABLE HO'S.

Benji you do realize it sounds like you want to take down their monarchy, yes?

Oh good! she's back!

Literally spending this entire scene interrupting all the edutainment by showing off their design work with anachronistic dancing (waltz isn't around until 19th century.)

SPOILER ALERT

You probably should its very cold outside.

Not throwing any shade, this is the laziest walk animations I've seen so far in this episode and i'm guessing its because they spent the entire animation budget on the previous scene's Roccocaine ball. Honestly, great tradeoff.

TMI, ABIGAIL

man the writer's room is just chomping at the bit to flesh out Dad Issues, The Tory.

Nothing good comes from coughing in a period piece.

Oh did she take Sulfa, too?

Daaaaaaang that's a nice swipe at her deadbeat dad, Abigail. High-fives!

James, you sweet summer child, why are you still surprised when conditions at Camp Continental Army are shit.

Washington? Arnold? Greene??

Lol Benji taking full advantage of this paid work trip.

The footman is either hella stoned, or checking out that elegant twunk (fancy dress can't fool me, that guy's a twunk under all that silk.)

Not with that attitude, sheeesh, you don't even have a bunch of teenaged reporters hanging out around you guys.

"Fuckfuckfuck this wasn't the plan"

ya girl is HALLUCINATIN' also is she just... wearing her normal clothes in bed with a wicked ass fever???

Straight up havin' a real bad trip

❛ i’m not giving up on you. ❜

He’s struggling to breathe; every breath and Shinsou feels like his ribs are going to break. He’s had another nightmare, another moment where he thought he had everything under control and yet there he was, heaving and trying to draw breath into his lungs that had just suddenly forgotten how to work. He has no idea what triggered it; it was a relaxing evening– Bakugou teaching Shinsou how to make his favourite comfort meal with minimal fussing between the two. He remembers falling asleep about five minutes into having the blonde play with his hair; those fingers carding through damp indigo locks, blunt nails scratching at his scalp as some animated movie played on his television. He had done everything right– why was his mind punishing him again? 

Katsuki found him at the foot of the bed, on the floor, with his knees drawn to his chest and a hand tangled in his hair. His face was hidden in his knees, tears threatening to fall; he was rocking back and forth as he tried desperately trying to suck in air that he knew – logically– he was getting but he felt as if he was being smothered. He knows this must be tiring for the blonde; to wake up once every few months to find his .. what was he to Bakugou?.. Partner (?) on the floor, or locked in the bathroom, breaking down in public settings, just… breaking in general. He felt as if he burdened Katsuki with his episodes; he hates calling them that but Bakugou insisted that putting a name to something means that he couldn’t ignore it. He hated that it made sense. 

Katsuki was always understanding; he knew that the two of them were heroes on different ends of the spectrum. He remembers how Katsuki’s eyes watered when Shinsou told him, in such a nonchalant way, about the body of a fifteen-year-old they found in the river: cleaned out like a goddamn pumpkin and stuffed and sewed back up full of quirk-enhancing drugs that were expected to be distributed to the topside population, but Hitoshi and his team had intervened. He remembers how Katsuki came home, frustrated and angry with himself about not being able to save two citizens and how it took days for Bakugou to forgive himself. Shinsou never rushed his grief, like his agency did. He knew Katsuki was allowed to grieve, but he was also expected to pack that shit up and be ready to be in the public eye again– Katsuki, in turn, knew that Shinsou didn’t get time to grieve or process what he sees, what he lives through– because he has no choice but to act like it never happened before he’s getting thrust into another mission. 

“I'm not giving up on you.” 

Hitoshi lifts his head, blinking back tears so he doesn’t look as pathetic as he feels. He swallows, throat strained and aching ever since he came back from his mission. He’s not gotten time to heal his vocal cords, the strain of the persona chords making his voice raspy and barely unusable when he came home. He can feel Bakugou’s hand covering his own, the one in his hair, and slipping his thumb into his grasp so he could redirect his hold– he was going to give himself a headache if he kept pulling like that. He lets Bakugou take his hand, fingers gripping the other’s wrist before a sniffle makes his shoulders shake– a sob rips from his chest and he can’t stop the tears this time no matter how hard he tries. He doesn’t want to keep crying, he feels the time to grieve what he saw had run out; he’s been home from the mission for two weeks now and he had such a tight lid on everything!

There’s a shushing noise and he realises that once again, that Bakugou is reading his mind; he knows Hitoshi is beating himself up because he put up such a good front. He smiles softly, that soft little twitch of his lip before sitting down beside Shinsou and with the grace that only Katsuki possessed, he hauls the quivering hero into his lap. He guides Shinsou’s head to his shoulder and Hitoshi hides his face into the crook of his neck, one arm wrapping around his shoulder before curling up against the very warm body he’s trapped against. His free hand rests against Katsuki's chest, right above his heart. He already knows what he’s going to tell him. He whispers it, letting Katsuki know he was still present, enough to follow their routine and talk Bakugou through what he’s taught Shinsou in these times.

“Count the beats…” 

[kkyaka]

Omg how was it bro lmaoo

Bro anon LMFAOO, I got you (kinda tmi under the cut, so warning for kinda sexual explicit content LOL), this got really long I'm so sorry 😭

(takes a deep breath) okay, SO lol first things first

I had actually seen this guy at a Halloween party I went to last semester, but right as I was gonna tell him that I thought he was cute, he left. And then I saw him on hinge and we matched! He goes to the same school I do, and he doesn't live too far away.

So, I matched with him and started talking to him, and he wanted to come over at like 10pm on Monday (today is Thursday as I write this) and I had come from a volleyball scrimmage and I was NOT in the mood to hook up

So I told him that, and he said that wasn't his intentions (which was a SHOCKER) so I let him come over 💀 LMFAO and we just cuddled and watched anime. And he didn't stay long cause I was tired asf, but like towards the end, he said that he had lied about not wanting to do anything, but I think that was because I wore really short shorts lmfaooo

We held hands for a while and then he had to leave, so I walked him to his car (he held my hand the whole time) and then he drove me back to my apartment. And then he told me that he really wanted to kiss me, but he never made a move lol, so I did. I made the first move! I kissed him first! Who would've thought? But yeah, he like never made a move on me or anything and that made me feel better

So then he said he was free the NEXT day (Tuesday) and I said he could come over lol cause I was gonna be gone for a whole week and I wanted some fun lmao. So, we just cuddled on the couch watching TV again (I'm not gonna tell you what we were watching bc you'll judge me LMFAO)

Anyway, fast forward like an episode later, and we're making out on the couch and then like five minutes later, he's eating me out LMFAOOOO, and his head game was pretty good honestly

So then, we move to my bed but then he goes an gets a condom, and not once did I ever think to like stop him, which isn't bad! I've messed around with a lot of guys, but I've always stopped it before it gets to this point, but with this guy I was kinda nervous but not enough to where I wanted to stop it

Bro he ate me out so much, I was like I mean sure, if you want to lmfao. I didn't cum, but he made me feel really good, so I'm not really upset about that honestly, and I'm pretty sure I'll see him again when I get back.

So, I was kinda worried because he wasn't very long, but he was lowkey really thick, so I was like 😬 sir you might rip me in half no lie. And the whole thing was like kinda awkward, but we laughed about it. But we did it in missionary, cowgirl, and doggy and in missionary, he had my legs shaking lmfao

And in cowgirl, my legs didn't get tired as soon as I thought they would, and doggy??? Whew chile, y'all.

I was SO LOUD. SO FUCKING LOUD. Like, I was almost crying. I could've cum from that, cause he was hitting good but not like the best spots. But honestly, I think doggy worked best because my whole like vagina (???) is tilted forward lol

So, after the first position, I thought we were done, so I slipped on my sweatshirt lol, but HE WAS NOT, and after I got on top, I thought we were done lol but he had flipped me over and eat me out for a bit AGAIN??? And he had already taken the condom off and tried to put it in RAW??? HELLO??? and I stopped him like instantly, I was like no sir you can't do that bc I haven't been on birth control in a couple of months lol

So after I told him that, he said that he was gonna look for another condom because, and I quote "I wanna fuck you again"

HELP??? HELLO???

In my head, my jaw was on the fucking floor, but I guess the 😺 is pretty good LMFAOOO🤭

And so after THAT, he asked me if I wanted to go AGAIN, I was like wtf this man's stamina. I know he's gonna wreck my shit when we have more time together lol

And surprisingly, I feel very normal (?) about everything that happened. Like then next time we hang out, I'm gonna ask him what he wants out of this whether that's a relationship or just fuck buddies, idrc, but we were both kinda tired, but he cuddled with me like for an hour

And he had to be up at 5am and I had to be up at 7am, but I told him he could stay over if he wanted to, I would set an alarm for him, but he said that he felt it would be better to just go home, which I was fine with.

Anyways, that's the rundown, but yeah, I honestly wasn't expecting to punch the v-card any time soon, so this is a massive surprise lol. It's not a big deal to me, and virginity is a social construct, but for a while I just wanted to get it over with, and this time I wasn't nervous or anything and I didn't really have any negative thoughts

We'll see if I see him next week, I REALLY want to because I haven't been able to stop thinking about him lol, so I'm hoping he comes back over. Also, anon, this is probably WAY more than you asked for, and I'm sorry lmfao

[elliethesuperfruitlover]

mega mega fumin'

ok yall so ive been in college for a week and two days (everybody clap) its been fun, most of the ppl here are queer and ppl are very nice, my classes are going well so far :))))))))

and ive been watching tua s4 as a part of my nightly routine while i redo my hair for bed.

and um

i combed my hair for the week today while finishing the season and i have some thoughts on the matter.

MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY SEASON 4 UNDER THE CUT

what in the everloving fuck was that

i already want to rewrite the lorax in a very dark manner after listening to biggering but that??? THAT?????? WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT??????

HE NEEDS TO COUNT HIS FUCKING DAYS WHO WAS IN THE GODDAMN WRITING ROOM IM THROWING CHAIRS AND TABLES, FUCK A HAND

the romance plotline was ass and wasnt in character AT ALL, i dont see it as a part of reality that exists, both for five and also lila.

lila is not that shallow of a woman or a mother to just do that, i think we all know that she cares a hell of a lot about her marriage with diego AS WELL AS HER FUCKING CHILDREN than to do something like that. even with her entire chaos personality and potentially using people, she would NOT go that far because her love for her family does not outweigh 7 years of no dick.

and five is quite literally one of the most intelligent characters in the series (it shouldve been him and dolores). nothing could ever convince me that he would fall in love with his BROTHER'S WIFE and feel no immediate remorse towards it, once again, 7 years or 7 fucking decades, please leave your complaints in my vacuum of "i dont give a fuck".

i actually liked ben and jennifer as characters interacting. if we take out the marigold and durango wimey shit, i wouldve loved to see them be in love and interact with each other as is. i think he deserves nice things. also since its literally been two years since i watched season 3 bc i watched it one, during a really shitty ongoing OCD episode and two, because i thought it was an "ok" season. (almost said bad, but we now know our standards were much much too low). there was also a point in which i thought that ben and jennifer were connected bc she came out of a giant squid (in which wtf), and ben has tentacle powers??? idk its odd to me too, don't worry.

reggie i hope you choke asshat, as well as you and your wife. at first i thought homegirl was a bootlicker but no i cant really call her that. she was fr like "well it was my death, you chose to bring me back fuck u hubby" erm yeah that was definitely something, viktor you shouldve killed him when you had the chance honey. also i blame reginald for that shit, he was the goddamn anomaly, not the entire umbrella academy???? at first i thought five blinking into the apocalypse all those years ago was the anomaly, but nooo we're gonna blame the abuse victims. *rolls eyes*

more about him um his entire "im gonna bring her back" shit was giving gendo ikari (for those of you who don't know, gendo ikari is an antagonist and key character in the anime neon genesis evangelion, in which he was a miserable fuck and loved his wife so much he killed the entire world to see her again, then that didnt even happen). him taking the shot on the ben and jennifer amalgamation which in the end triggered the cleanse???? that was weird to me. like him being an asshole wasn't weird, that's already been established, but their death and recombination just triggering an event that severe???? wild, still kinda confused.

the only way i could see raymond walking out on allison is if she really, and i mean REALLY fucked up. but given everything that she has done in the past, i think she learned her lesson. raymond would never, i wouldve preferred him to have died off-screen than to have walked out bc???? anyway moving tf on.

i enjoyed klaus a lot this season bc hes my favorite but also because a part of me enjoyed seeing a different, more "real" anxious side of him. (that i could relate to a bit more). after reading a few opinions and watching the deleted scene where he went to an AA meeting and finally actually admitted he was an alcoholic to himself......steve blackman wtf. was this the bad ending, did we all fuck up that bad in our choices that we got HERE????? im kissing him on the forehead, i cant believe the last time i saw klaus hargreeves on tv there were actual tears coming down his face im....im so sick y'all.

whoever decided to put all that vomit in the episode please dont do that again. i know you cant put warnings for literal barf on a tv show but as someone who suffered through the roaches of season 3, then had to take breaks watching the sick episode of this season bc emetophobia......ew. (the baby shark shit was funny as hell to me oopsie)

i actually kinda enjoyed jean and gene as characters, their dynamic was entertaining to me, but i wish i got to see more of their history, i especially found it a little weird how jean was holding gene's face in the episode that five and lila were in the meeting together.....i wanna know more.

erm i think the concept of the keepers was also interesting. like a little group of people who know they see some weird shit and find other folks, kinda neat.

the casual drop that one of the fives made the commission???? we're just gonna brush past that???? like it makes a fuck ton of sense bc its a collection of fives we're talking about but i just.....that was a shock to me, one in which i felt i had little time to recover from given it was the last fucking episode and everything that happened after that....happened.

i liked luther the most in this season methinks. i think i had to realize him being shitty in season 1 specifically was partially a trauma response, and he felt he still had to act how he was expected to. once again, fuck you reginald hargreeves, please kiss the darkest part of my black ass.

yeah lets all just ignore all the shit that happened and either let season 3 be the end where they all go their separate ways or even better, season 2 bc that shit was peak highkey.

[earthstellar]

OK so I have a story about the G1 space cat thing episode 

tw: drug use (mushrooms) 

I watched it on mushrooms back in uni once, like this exact episode 

and I can’t explain to you the shit that happened in my brain when I tried to visually interpret all the animation fuck ups that happened in that notorious five second clip, it’s in this compilation, you will know which one I am talking about IMMEDIATELY once you see it 

if you guessed the part where Bumblebee and the others are trying to walk away from the cat ??? I think that’s what’s happening?? then you are correct 

what my brain did (at first, anyway) was fuck with depth perception, because it’s like I understood on an instinctual level that the cel frames were layered wrong in addition to other problems happening here, and my brain was like oh god, are we fucking up the cel trays in our brain, like are we seeing this shit right? can we reshuffle trays in our brain???? so my brain tried to fix it 

which warped my sense of depth perception, which made me feel like I was going TOWARDS the space cat while Bumblebee was stuck (???) but still moving trying to get away from the cat, because it also gave me a weird almost vertigo-like feeling as if shit was moving when it wasn’t 

now, I grew up with parents that did way more drugs than I ever have lmao, and by this point in life my brain was already roasted, so I was prepared for this possibility. stuff like this can get weird on mushrooms 

so this is not what was particularly weird to me 

HOWEVER

what I was not prepared for was the fact that because the sense of scale was so remarkably fucked up during this entire episode that I also, at some point, temporarily lost my ability to scale myself in relation to actual real life objects and environments 

so the episode ended and I tried to grab my mouse and my hand, from my perspective, was simultaneously huge and also small, but the mouse was also huge but small, but the room itself was also huge but small 

and I was like oh fuck, am I clipping through stuff? am I just in the table now? is the table moving? am I moving? does it even matter? sometimes things just happen, man 

like I was handling it OK (always let questions go in situations like this lol, you just have to vibe it out) but my brain started interpreting the real world as if everything was bizarre G1 Transformers scaling LMAO and I was like ohhh nooo how will I go to sleep if I clip through my bed and the bed is also huge but also maybe small but maybe it’s also me but also I can’t tell what’s happening or not, like is sound big now??? what else is big? or small??? 

you can see why this is a problem that might escalate

so in order to prevent this from becoming a Bad Time, I powered through it by opening my window (after a lot of fumbling around, I eventually had to close my eyes and do it LOL), I shoved my head outside, and I looked directly upwards at the stars

and my brain was like “space is forever. we are matter and can’t be destroyed, we only change forms when we die. we are forever, like the universe, an ever outwardly expanding entity of existence that can be transmuted but can never truly cease to exist. our minds and souls are the stars; time is on a cosmic scale incomprehensible, and it does not need comprehension to Be.” 

so I started having this super profound moment where the stars turned into like anthropomorphic God-figures who started teaching me cosmic philosophy regarding the nature of life, I distinctly remember a lion head god, a deer head god, and a third figure that may have been an anteater or elephant god (it had a long nose and was kinda robust, I think) 

and the whole time the end theme to the episode was playing in the background because my computer started fucking up (possibly my fault, idk if I ever actually touched the mouse LOL) 

so these cosmic entities were taking me on a Pink Floyd style laser show journey through space and time while the fucking G1 theme instrumental was playing directly into my brain, and sounded as if it was being played through a steel tunnel, like it had some kind of vaguely distant reverb 

and every time the theme song started to loop for whatever reason my brain interpreted this as me Doctor Who-style time travelling in the Collective and Infinite Cosmic Mind, so I mean, crisis averted 

anyway

doing this kind of thing can definitely fuck with you so please do not do what I did lmao; it wasn’t bad, but it absolutely could have been, very easily. 

also obligatory “don’t do drugs” disclaimer: this could have ended poorly with even slightly less experience managing this type of perception distortion, and even experienced people can fuck it up and have a Bad Time-- and like Sonic says, that’s no good!!! so please don’t fuck yourselves up!!! <3 

tl;dr I did a lot of mushrooms back in the day (I don’t anymore, I’m fuckin’ old now) and boy howdy was that not a very good idea when combined with G1′s Quality Animation lmao because it made the animation errors real, like as in happening in the real world, for at least like a couple hours and it was pretty harsh for a minute there lol 

so if you think this shit looks rough, now imagine you are on a cosmic journey in your mind the entire time you are watching it, and the real world starts to become G1 animation errors in real time, and the only thing that can fix this is the animal-people gods that live in the stars 

animation errors my beloved

[elvesofnoldor]

did not expect m//dzs animation series to come back so soon, and I would not mind watching the final season if not for the fact that i literally just finished watching the untamed/cql again--this time, with my mom--two days ago. 

[ichinoue]

alright i’m going to watch the episode now, i’m just going to liveblog my thoughts here if anyone cares lol:

oh this animation is crisp as hell

i forgot about Akon. hi Akon

still don’t understand how they wear socks with sandals like i’ve TRIED, but unless you have toe-socks on, it is so uncomfortable 

everything looks so pretty, like the background scenery?? omg 

ORIHIME

look at her go!!! fighting and healing at the same time, she’s come so far, i’m so proud

the music....NOW YOU FEEL LIKE NUMBER ONE, THIS IS WHAT YOU’VE WAITED FOR!!! i actually have chills lol god how embarrassing

ichigo looks really cool. 

ichigo teasing orihime about the bread ddfjkgjdklfjgl and she’s just like “well, i guess you won’t get to have any then 🙊🤷‍♀️😈” because she knows he really does like it GOD they’re so cute look at this banter

and then ishida and chad immediately back orihime up on this and expose ichigo as the one who likes Orihime’s bread the most dfjkgfjkgjgj 

not to mention, in the arc prior to this one, Orihime was so nervous and fidgety about being in Ichigo’s bedroom and now she just bursts in the door first all confident, look at that growth and development. 

Orihime looks so cute eating the bread. oh and now Ichigo admits that it’s good lmao goddddd he had such a little crush on her, he was too embarrassed to compliment her bread 

second time in like a five minute span that Ichigo tells someone to get off his bed, he’s so protective over it. Which makes it even funnier that Orihime is shown sitting on his bed just a few days later 🙊

lol Ichigo jumps up to kick the guy in the head and Orihime’s already ready and waiting at the window, look at that teamwork!! it’s like foreshadowing for when they tagteam Yhwach at the end and communicate their strategies without even speaking. fuck. do you think kubo planned it that way on purpose

some strange guy just broke in and threatened them, everyone’s all concerned about it, while this ominous music plays and Orihime’s just calmly sitting there snacking on some bread, I genuinely could not love her more, she is....incredible lmao

Ikkaku and Yumichika!!!!!!

aw I actually forgot that happened to Sasakibe 

oh shit Yhwach

oh that’s the end 

awww all these scenes from the original series

uhmm the “your words freed me from my chains” being placed over Orihime crying out to Ichigo in the lust arc.....i’m not okay lmao which of you origos edited this shit omg that is powerful

WELL THAT WAS FUN i loved it when does the next episode come out lol
