#the big Yata meta I did kinda gets into this

Does Fushimi ever manifest regret after he and Yata reconcile? Or, generally just show any sign that he knows he fucked up too, and their whole mess isn't all Yata's fault for "nOt NoTiCiNg" how he felt while in Homra? Sorry if this sounds a bit mean to Fushimi hehe, I kind of just get annoyed sometimes at how people seem to push the blame too heavily on Yata, when they're kind of equally at fault??
I feel like the last chapter of the LSW manga kinda hints at least that Fushimi does feel some regret (Yata's “sense of guilt” comment seems to be pushing in that direction too) but that's one thing I was disappointed in as far as Fushimi's development goes, we never really see him properly admit that he did screw everything up and that a big part of what split him and Yata apart was his own fears and insecurities. Even though I'm a Fushimi fan I agree with you that fandom can be a bit too hard on Yata sometimes, he gets a lot of flack for 'not noticing' Fushimi once they join Homra but there's ample evidence that Fushimi was also actively pulling away from Yata at the same time and that he refused to communicate because he was basically expecting Yata to read his mind and then getting upset when Yata couldn't. A lot of the reason why Yata and Fushimi had their big break up can be laid at Fushimi's feet, including the fact that it went on so long – in the MOR cellar chapters we see Yata actively trying to reconcile with Fushimi and Fushimi rejecting it, because he can't bring himself to trust in Yata's honest feelings. He's also the one that framed the entire thing in betrayal terms, I think Yata would have eventually gotten over Fushimi going to Scepter 4 if Fushimi had just outright stated that he was uncomfortable in Homra – Fushimi's the one that made it a betrayal, who wanted to paint himself in that color in order to make Yata hate him more.
That said, I do like to think that at some point Fushimi does actively express regret to Yata, I think he almost would have to for their relationship to be fully mended. Yata made his own mistakes but I feel like he's very willing to own up to them (and if Fushimi would tell him honestly what the issue is I think Yata would respond to it, the problem was never Yata ignoring Fushimi it was that Fushimi couldn't bring himself to say that he felt ignored and so he just kept pulling away instead). Fushimi on the other hand I think would be a bit more roundabout when it comes to his own part in everything, just because it's harder for him to speak honestly and because I think if he really fully told Yata everything that was going on it would be baring more of his trauma than he's willing to own up to, at least at the moment. I could see it being more like they have their talk and Yata's ready to make up while Fushimi's sitting there all shifting and uncomfortable, this little pain in his chest like he knows he needs to say something more but he can't quite figure out the words, and there's a resignation in Yata's expression that makes Fushimi's head hurt. At some point Yata gets up to leave and go home and Fushimi almost reaches to stop him, hovering just behind him and trying to grasp his own feelings and finally he manages this stilted, unsure 'Misaki....sorry.' Yata freezes and whirls to look at him, Fushimi's looking away and clicking his tongue like he's annoyed at his own weakness but it just makes Yata feel suddenly so much lighter and happier. Yata grins and says it's fine, Fushimi mumbles that he doesn't need Yata to say that but really he also feels like a small weight's been lifted off, like he still can't say entirely what he feels but this is a start and that's enough for right now.
#sarumi#Talking K#...tbh I wouldn't even say it's equally at fault it's like at least a good 60-70% Saru XD#the big Yata meta I did kinda gets into this#Yata's main fault is just that he didn't try very hard to understand#but Fushimi's hard to understand as it is and he's actively resisting being understood#Saru has issues though so he gets a bit more of a pass here#not enough of a pass that he doesn't need to apologize though#I think he would eventually it would just be hard for him#Fushimi's not used to this kind of thing but he's trying#remembering that time I said the betrayal was Saru's fault and got 'accused' of being a secret Yata fan XD

Last Minute Speculation and Dumb Stuff I Wanna See Before Part 6 Starts
Calling it now: Lily is Watson's daughter (or she's related to one of the Ravens)
Moriarty maybe? Idk
At least one vaguely passive aggressive Angel's Egg reference from the Oshii episode
Give Me Lupin Existentialism
Give Me Lupin Grandfather Stuff
Give Me Lupin Backstory
No Meta Green Vs Red Bullshit
What's under that fucking mask
Give Goemon something to do
Are y'all gonna talk about what went down between Lupin and Goemon in Part 5? I hope so
Give Yata something to do (I've seen people speculate he's connected to the Ravens somehow and that'd be interesting to see)
Bring Tickey Pasco back
Bring Nyx back
Ami cameo in the final episode like Rebecca did in Part 5
Also bring Rebecca back
If there is not at least one shot of someone eating fish and chips I will leave
Bring back Lupin's fear of octopus
Have the characters speak English! (and then have them do bad British accents in the dub)
Are y'all gonna explain the evil Lupin from the first teaser poster?
At least one joke about British traffic
At least one joke about British weather
a spotted dick reference
Vague Doctor Who reference
Vague Beatles reference
Vague Edgar Allen Poe reference (I mean c'mon the group's name is The Ravens)
Vague Detective Conan reference
I've already spoken about my high hopes for the soundtrack
DOUBLE DECKER BUSES LIKE C'MON
A scene in the Underground (or at least King's Cross)
Not saying I want y'all to confirm my "Lupin gets anxiety on trains because of what happened to his dad" headcanon but I'm also not not saying that
They go to the London Eye for some reason
Final showdown inside Big Ben (just to kinda bring that whole Cagliostro-Great Mouse Detective thing full circle)
Aaaaand that's all I can think of right now! I doubt a good chunk of this is gonna happen (the mask thing is certainly a long shot) but if they do then that'd be great!
BTW quick heads up while I'm here: I will be tagging all Part 6 posts as "lupin part 6 spoilers" so go ahead and blacklist that if you don't want to be spoiled! I honestly have no idea how I'm gonna watch this show because I'm too poor and lazy for Hidive but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it!

Ridia-san!!! You don't have to answer this if you don't want to but I want to know how you fell in love with this anime and why did you start posting about it? Please don't hate me! I can't stop my curiosity. Thanks again!!!
Aw, I won't hate you anon, this is a nice easy ask XD The first thing I ever saw of K was a PV before the first season came out, I actually assumed it was a movie at first and made a mental note to check it out when it was released because it seemed to have many pleasing meganes. When I saw it was a series I was really happy, though my excitement was tempered a bit after seeing a character list (Neko being described as hating clothes did not exactly fill me with confidence). So I watched episode one all intrigued....and then was just utterly confused as to what was going on and after a couple episodes the show had gone from my most anticipated to 'thing I'm watching because I may as well finish it.' I did get a bit more interested around episode five – Fushimi caught my eye due his character design from the beginning and I was happy to finally see him in action – but mostly I was kinda on the fence. Around episode ten I remember poking around Tumblr a bit and finding some old meta focusing around the betrayal scene and Fushimi's clear attachment to Yata in that short flashback where we see Homra!Fushimi watching Yata talk to Mikoto and that intrigued me a little.
What really ended up grabbing me though was after the show ended, I was a little impressed they'd had the guts to kill off Mikoto and I was curious what other people were saying about it so I hopped back onto Tumblr. This led me to downloads and translations of the trading CD dramas – the one with the Yata and Fushimi interview and the hero show drama. Honestly I think the first part where I really got hooked was during the interview drama, where Yata asks Fushimi what he likes and Fushimi says 'nothing' – like really, nothing, this kid doesn't like anything? Then the hero show drama pretty much sealed the deal, it was just so angsty and tragic and made me want to protect Fushimi (honestly if anyone hasn't listened to it I highly recommend tracking it down because just a translation doesn't do it justice, Mamoru Miyano is always on point but his voice acting in this drama in particular is phenomenal, he puts so much bitterness and pain into Fushimi's voice). After that I pretty much devoured whatever K stuff I could find, the final piece in the 'I love Fushimi Saruhiko so much' puzzle was definitely the “Don't you laugh” scene in MoR because damn Saru's face kills me in that part.
Blog wise, I didn't actually intend to start posting so much about it, this was supposed to be my multifandom side blog :P Basically when LSW came out there was a lot of info being tossed about regarding how Fushimi's betrayal of Homra had nothing to do with Yata and how Japanese fandom hated him now for being so mean to Yata and all kinds of similar things. At the time I started writing a big meta piece about Fushimi but I abandoned it half-finished because I figured no one would want to read it. Then when MK came out I wrote a post detailing my feelings about the movie along with a little analysis of the Sarumi phone call scene. I got an ask praising what I wrote and saying it would be cool if I could write a whole Fushimi meta post and I mentioned the one I'd started writing in reply. I got a few lovely encouraging messages after that so I posted the giant meta post of doom that started this whole thing. After that I got a couple asks about Fushimi's relationships and some other K things and soon I had a K ask blog without ever even intending to make one XD
#Talking K#I suppose I could've made this a Saturday post but I didn't feel like it...#sorry for rambling on about myself for three paragraphs ;;#yeah the CD drama is the big one that hooked me#I literally remember going to bed that night already writing what would become Between the Lines in my head#this blog was supposed to be the multifandom side blog and still is in theory#in theory XD#the asks just kept happening and they were fun so I kept replying and here we are XD
