#there will be no killua slander on my watch

[hxhhasmysoul]

I need Gojou fans to stop.

I need you to stay away from my comfort fandom and my beloved children from my comfort media.

Idk whose idea it was to have kid Gojou voiced by Killua's va. If it was Mappa, well it tracks, when left to their own devices they make JJK worse. If it was Gege then despite their Togashi worship they don't understand Killua as a character.

Gojou is nothing like Killua.

Yesterday someone compared Gojou to Leorio and in the notes to my outraged post someone replied that Leorio is what Gojou would've wanted to be. And that's an interesting observation.

Killua is what Gojou fans delude themselves Gojou could be.

_______

Why Gojou never was and never could be Killua?

Gojou was created to be the strongest and is worshiped by yjr secret society that produced him. His birth tipped the balance of his world. Before Sukuna reappeared no one could challenge Gojou into a fight. Gojou finds himself invincible and invulnerable. He's extremely arrogant. He completely buys into the paradigm and the cult of the strongest, he never tries to challenge his own worldview. He just gets appalled when Getou actually puts the "we are stronger why don't we kill these people" into action.

Has practically no emotional intelligence and whines about being lonely while actively pushing people away. When his friend started to spiral Gojou wasn't there to for him.

Gojou's powers come naturally and instinctually to him, he does practice but there's little sacrifice connected to it. The hardships the prompt him to further develop both stem from his arrogance in him underestimating his enemies.

Gojou is irresponsible and doesn't plan because he's arrogant enough to believe that he can wing any fight. He also fights alone, because he doesn't think he needs the help of others. This arrogance leads to many deaths, starting with Riko's.

_______

Killua is one of several kids born to give their parents the highest chance of creating a perfect heir. He gets chosen to this position he does not desire because his potential is assessed to be the highest. Then he gets violently tortured and brainwashed into that position. He knows he's strong but he never considers himself the strongest. He was trained to fear, and he was proven by his abusers that they are stronger than him.

He is shown to have been always capable of building emotional connections with others like with Alluka, Nanika or the attempt he makes with Canary but these are cut short and forbidden by his family. His arrogance is surface level and he has a lot of respect for the ones around him. Once he's on his own he build strong emotional bonds with the people around him. He has extremely high emotional intelligence and he is capable of being vulnerable around others. Even though initially his emotions, memories and ability to self-determine are limited by Illumi's powers.

When he's best friend spirals into darkness, Killua is right there with him, ride or die. Literally declaring his love through the concept of a lovers suicide... Yet he still tries to protect and support Gon. He goes back to challenge his abusers just to save Gon's life.

Killua's powers and abilities stem from his suffering. He was programmed to kill even though violence is not what he desires. And he's actively fighting against his programming.

Killua is more of a support fighter than a tank, though he has an enhancer slant to his transmuter nen. He fights very well in a team, he is clearly at his best when collaborating with others. He's a great planner and strategist. He's capable of very robust and in-depth analysis of a situation and of people and their motivations.

______

Killua isn't flawless. But even his arrogance or bias against older women are not that straightforward, because they are not consistent patterns, they are actually pretty well anchored in the situations he's in and/or the emotional development stage he's in. You can peel Killua's character like an onion, it will be equally layered and tears inducing as doing it with the real vegetable.

Gojou you can crack like a coconut. The hard shell of arrogant bs, irresponsibility, god complex and exploitative sense of humour will be annoying, but once cracked it will be hollow inside and just the fake deepness of "i'm too strong to connect with others" will spill out. A lazy sentiment he has while at the same time doing his utmost to get on everyone's nerves.

The Moon and Sun (Big Sib Reader x Gon/Killua)

Ch 5: Big Bad Bomber Man

Synopsis: After some much needed rest and preparation, it's time to defeat Genthru once and for all. The only problem though, one of your kids is a little too reckless.

---------------------------------------------------------------

It'd been around three days since Razor was defeated. And during that small window of time, so much had happened.

For starters, The Strip of Beach card was finally acquired and several copies were made for the other teams. Then Genthru decided to contact your small group with a few demands. He wanted The Strip of Beach card in exchange for your lives.

Like that was gonna happen.

To further prove his point, he confirmed he killed the previous members of your group. His ultimatum: meet up in Masadora within an hour or die.

Tsezguerra and Goreinu, trusting in your group of four, offered to buy 3 weeks of time to get stronger. All Tsezguerra wanted in return was card #75.

Which brings us to where we are now.

You were completely knocked out, finally getting the sleep your body desperately needed. Especially now with your injury.

It'd take months to heal, unfortunately it was time you didn't have. The best three weeks would do is leave it bruised beyond belief. You'd probably be limping at best.

Killua was seated next to your unconscious body, bandaged up hands leaving him in the same boat as you. He watched as Gon trained with Bisky and was mad at himself for his current condition. If he'd just been a little more careful, he'd be getting stronger too.

He supposed it wasn't all bad. He had time to figure out a plan that would defeat Genthru. That and he got to observe your unusual sleeping habits.

You didn't snore when you slept. And your breathing was incredibly slow, like you were purposely trying to be as silent as you could. They were habits eerily similar to his.

The weirdest one, however, was you reaching over every now and then to grab at something that wasn't there. You'd lazily toss your arm to the side and pat the ground to search. Then when you found nothing, you'd pull your arm back and grimace.

On the second day of your deep sleep, you managed to grab Killua's ankle. He was caught off guard by the sudden touch and immediately went to pry your hand off. He froze noticing something new.

Unlike the other times you came up empty handed, this time you smiled. And with your content grin came a drowsy huff.

"Got you, Kari."

It was so strange.

And even stranger was how your silent breathing had increased in volume. Your stiff posture was now relaxed.

Killua decided he'd ask you about it when this was all over.

-------------------------------

You'd awoken in the afternoon of the third day, catching the last of Bisky and Killua's conversation.

"-does clear the training, being able to send your enemies flying isn't lethal."

"That's exactly right. The only purpose of training at this level is to give him more options to draw on."

You gave a small yawn as you sat up. You kept hearing a small puff of air followed by a light thud. Cracking open your eyes, you saw Gon. Seems he got a good deal stronger. It was also him causing the repetitive commotion.

"Look who finally decided to join us," Bisky teased.

You slowly turned your head in her direction, eyelids still droopy. You gave another yawn and stretched out your injured leg.

"How long was I out?"

"About three days," she answered.

"Yeah, three whole days of listening to your loud snoring, " Killua added in.

You gave a tired glare.

"I do not snore."

"Yeah you do. You're like a foghorn. And you drool too, all gross and everything."

"Fine, be all mean. After I was gonna train you out of the kindness of my heart. But alas, your slander with not go unpunished."

A beat of silence

Then laughter from the two of you.

When you regained your composure, you directed your attention to Bisky who had been watching the exchange with a softness in her eyes.

"So just what do you have that poor boy doing?" You asked pointing at Gon.

"Emitter training. Just another defensive measure to fall back on." Bisky answered.

You watched as Gon went up by a few inches and then straight back down. His aura was determined, but it was slowly shifting into frustration.

"He won't get anywhere if he keeps forcing it. I'd help him if my ability wasn't heavily visual based," you said.

"Speaking of abilities, I need to know both yours and Bisky's. If I'm gonna come up with a halfway decent plan, I need to know just what exactly you two can do," Killua explained.

You pointed at yourself.

"Speed." It didn't seem the appropriate time to divulge in your full ability yet.

"Your leg's broken, idiot," Killua chastised.

"I'll be good enough in three weeks so long as I rest." You gave a lazily smile.

"Fine, but you better be prepared. Bisky, what can you do?"

She lifted up a finger, her powerful aura surrounding her small form. Then her nen conjured up a woman.

"Allow me to introduce my ability: Cookie the magical masseuse!"

The WHAT???????

"Her various massage techniques are caresses of pure bliss," Bisky continued happily.

"They melt away fat deposits and leave you feeling heavenly. Aura is transmuted into special lotion, smoothing and rejuvenating your skin. Her shiatsu makes you beautiful from the inside out. Relieving constipation, stiff muscles, chills, anything that ails you."

You stifled a laugh. For someone so strict and straight to the point, she sure did have an odd ability. You looked over at Killua whose eye was twitching in slight irritation.

"And is that it?" He questioned lightly, still not believing what was transpiring.

Bisky lit up once again.

"No, of course not! She does chiropractic, swedish, and deep tissue massage too! And that's only the beginning!"

That was the straw that broke the camel's back for Killua.

"What are you an idiot!!!?!?! That crap is completely useless!!!!"

You thumped him with the end of your crutch.

"Watch your language!" You warned.

He turned to glare at you.

"Watch my language!?!? You said way worse when you were arguing with Asta!!!!"

"You were supposed to have your ears covered!!!!! You fibber!!!! And what's with this insulting Bisky's ability!!!"

"IT SUCKS!!!"

"IT'S OBVIOUSLY THE MOST USEFUL POWER IN THE WORLD!!!" Bisky defended.

"YEAH, FOR OLD PEOPLE!!!"

"DON'T LISTEN TO HIM BISKY!!! YOUR ABILITY IS FANTASTIC!!! IT MIGHT EVEN HELP WITH MY LEG!!!! You interjected.

"A-HA! YOU'RE JUST SAYING THAT SO SHE USES HER ABILITY ON YOU!!!'

You stuck your tongue out at the small assassin.

--------------------------------------------------

You let a few more days pass by before you helped out with the boys' training. Your first step: helping out the frustrated boy in green.

You were sitting up against a boulder, not having got up yet. Just a little while longer.

"Hey Gon!" You called out as he fell over.

"Yeah?" His mood lightened up a little.

"Come here for a sec!"

He got up and walked over to you. He looked tired.

"Show me what you were just doing." Maybe if you saw up close with your eyes, you might be of some use afterall.

He got into position, a one armed handstand. A small surge of nen surrounded his palm, then before it had time to charge up, a small puff was released. He didn't go up any further than a few inches. You could feel his aura once again shift into frustration.

"I just can't seem to get it right now matter how hard I try!" Gon lamented. He once again flopped over in defeat. You softly thumped his forehead.

"Course not, bozo. You're trying a little too hard. So much so that you're not actually focusing on what you're doing."

He looked up at you with confusion.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, it's not really training if it's a one and done, right? Let's try something a little different, okay?" You offered a tired smile.

You raised your palm up and surrounded it with aura, then you gestured to your head and transferred it there.

"Remember this?"

Gon nodded and repeated the action.

"Good, now let's keep that aura around your palm. Keep it there and start adding onto it. Kinda like if you were to charge up your jan-ken thing."

Gon once again did as you instructed. The aura duplicated twice its size in seconds. He looked back to you.

"Keep going, and when you feel like it's big enough, push and release."

He kept charging up for a few more seconds, then finally let go. The result was a decent gust of wind and debris.

"Now try it from the position Bisky showed you."

Gon went over all the steps in his head again before trying. Move the aura to his palm. Charge it up. Then push and release.

To his surprise he went up higher than usual. At least by a foot or two. He got back into his feet and beamed down at your relaxed state.

"Atta boy! Now keep on practicing and don't get discouraged if you're still having trouble." His grin seemed to double in size at your praise. And all traces of frustration in his aura were gone.

"Promise. Thanks Y/n!"

-------------------------------------------------

You never pegged yourself as a teacher. You never liked the responsibility of the title. Never liked the expectations that came with it. Even as a child you disliked the term. But you were a helper. You liked to show your peers an easier, more efficient way. (Or at least you had)

A way that built up people's strength gently, rather than the harsher methods used on you to get results.

You despised the idea, but time was of the essence. You couldn't afford to be as laxed as you would've wanted.

Gon was already exhausted with the training Bisky was putting him through. She was better equipped for handling his enhancer abilities.

Killua, on the other hand, was more of a cautious than offensive boy. He'd be better suited for what you had instore. Plus, you could tell he was a little envious that he wasn't training like Gon was. So, even though you knew you wouldn't be as gentle as before, you decided you'd train him.

You wouldn't work him too hard.

"Get up, lazy bones," You woke him up on the 9th day. He got up, but grumbled about it being too early.

"You wanna get stronger, no?"

"What, you mean you're actually gonna train me? I thought you were just joking." He looked a little shocked that you had followed through.

The sound of Gon still trying to get down his emitter training reverberated throughout the area.

"Yup, don't want the other one leaving you behind, do you?"

Killua sat up fast, giving you his full attention.

You summoned a bucket from one of the item cards and tossed it his direction.

"Fill it up with small rocks no bigger than your pinky nail."

"Really, that's lame," he groaned out.

"It'll make sense in a little bit, plus I can't get up and do it myself. Broken leg."

"Fine."

He came back a few minutes later with the bucket full of small rocks.

"Now what?"

You gestured for him to move back until he was at least fifteen feet away from where you sat upon your boulder. When he was in place, you rummaged for a pebble and flicked it fast at him. He was hit directly in the middle of his forehead.

"OW!!" He clutched the area in pain. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!"

You kept launching the small rocks at a startling pace, watching as Killua failed to dodge them.

"Focus your eyes to see where they're coming from. Then focus on making your body move fast enough to dodge them. Each rock you dodge is a minute you get for break. When the bucket's empty, you are to fill it back up. We'll do this for three days straight." You explained the terms while continuing to flick the rocks at him.

Even though he was getting absolutely wailed on, Killua's aura was happy and a smidge excited.

"That all? I'll have this down by the end of the day."

-----------------------------------------------------

It was actually the third day he got most of it down, just like you predicted. He's able to dodge a little more than half the bucket. Decent for a beginner.

Too bad you only had 9 days left.

You'd leave the poor boy alone so he could continue coming up with a plan. Perhaps you would check up on Gon. He did make quite the fuss while you were focused on Killua. You heard him asking Bisky if he could take a break to join in on your training because it 'looked fun' and 'you explained things better.'

Maybe you'd show him a new trick or two after Genthru was defeated.

You waited until Bisky took Killua a little ways away to discuss what he came up with. You glanced over at your crutches. Not yet.

You called Gon over to you again. His frustration was very much evident. He hadn't been able to get any higher since the last time you helped.

"Sit with me, will you?"

Your question caught the boy in green off guard.

"What? I don't think now's the time to take a break. I have to keep go-"

"Sit." Your tone was smidge harsher.

He begrudgingly sat in front of you, jittering slightly to get back to training. This was really bothering him, wasn't it?

"You haven't made anymore progress?" You voice was unusually soft.

Gon shook his head.

"Why is this so hard? I get everything else, but this...this seems impossible."

You reached out and placed your hand on top of his head, giving a gentle ruffle.

"There are just some things you can do and some you can't. Doesn't mean you failed anyone or that you're not good enough. You just gotta make up for the things you can't do with the things you can. Make sense?"

You could feel him start to relax. He glanced up and stared at you with newfound determination.

"Yeah!" Then his gaze softened. "Y'know, you'd make a really good parent one day!" He said with a wide smile.

For the first time ever in your life, you were embarrassed. It was new, so very new and had you covering your suddenly too warm face.

"You can't just-!!! Why would you-!!!! Let's set the record straight, I'm nobody's-!!!!"

Your rambling was cut off by Gon.

"Well I guess big sibling, more like it. You're not all that old after all." He gave a light laugh after he finished correcting himself.

Still very much embarrassed, you slapped your palm against his mouth.

"Shush! Not another word and don't even think about telling Killua!!!" You would be far too embarrassed to deal with the other boy's teasing.

You weren't used to this.

You hadn't been for quite sometime.

But Razor's words started to ring true.

"Those boys, they look up to you so much already."

Damnit

Damnit all

Just when had you gone so soft.

You were a loner. And you deserved to be, rightfully so.

And yet....

Yet here was this kid giggling at your flustered state like he just found out about an embarrassing secret. Maybe you didn't deserve it, but you sure as hell longed for it.

A life worth living with people worth protecting.

She'd want that for you, wouldn't she?

---------------------------------------------

With only five more days left, and not enough progress made, it was decided Gon would stop his emitter training. It was time to start setting things in motion.

"Gon, your time's up. Training's over." Killua was the one who stopped the boy in green.

Said boy, wasn't too happy by these turn of events.

"But we still have 5 days!!!!"

"Had a change in plans. We formed a new strategy to defeat them."

"Yeah but! Hold on-!" Gon was trying his best to come up with an excuse. Then his eyes met yours and he doubled his efforts.

"C'mon, you know I'm close, right???? I just need a little more time!!! I've almost got it!!!"

Way to put you on the spot.

"Kid, you can barely go two feet up. Five days isn't gonna make that big a difference. Plus you'll be completely exhausted and unable to fight. It's best to cut your losses and keep moving forward."

Gon pouted, having no other rebuttal.

"Now then, the plan is-" Killua started.

----------------------------------------------

Team Tsezguerra had been radio silent for over 10 days, with their status saying they've left the game. It seemed likely Genthru got to them until Goreinu used contact to explain the situation.

They left for good and gave the cards of value to Goreinu.

Which meant nothing was stopping Genthru from coming after your group now. And your suspicions were confirmed as you felt three malicious auras approaching.

"They're coming." You were grateful for the extra days Tsezguerra's disappearance provided. You could stand and if you tried to walk, you'd limp. As long as you didn't run, you'd be okay.

Killua broke the silence as Genthru's group landed, sticking to script he came up with.

"What do you want!?"

"No need to be hostile. Let's just make a deal."

The bomber's aura was full of deceit. Not that you needed to use your ability to see that.

"With you?!? We're not interested!" Killua continued.

"It's not a bad deal, you know? In fact, it's so good that even Tsezguerra agreed to it."

You bit your tongue to stop your smart ass remark. God these men were repulsive.

"What is it!?!"

"Curious now?" Genthru said as he started to approach.

"Don't move! You can talk from over there!" Gon's words stopped him in his tracks.

"It's actually surprisingly simple," the bomber picked up from where he left off. "We'll beat the game on everyone's behalf. Then everyone returns to the real world and splits Battera's reward."

So all this was for money?

All those people dead, no murdered...

For money

You clenched your hands, trying your best to keep your bubbling anger at bay. You had to stick to the plan. Lashing out would do no good, and you had a part to play at the moment.

"Why should we trust you? You're not exactly good people, so forgive us for not taking such a generous offer at face value." You couldn't help the sarcasm that dripped into your tone.

"We've just had a little change in heart," Genthru responded.

Liar

"And Tsezguerra and the others have already left the game."

"Yeah? But that still doesn't prove he agreed to your offer," Killua countered.

"Yes, that's true." You could feel the bloodlust surfacing from Genthru.

"Then you'd rather...die here?" It spiked all at once.

"JUST SHUT UP AND GIVE US ALL YOUR CARDS! OTHERWISE WE'LL KILL ALL OF YOU!"

How pathetic.

Your group made fast steps away to retreat, beginning to put the plan into full swing.

Not before you and Killua gave once last taunt.

"Finally showing your true colors, huh!!!!"

"I always knew you weren't right upstairs!!!" You gestured to your head as Gon summoned his book.

"Book! Accompany on! To Soufrabi!!!"

The chase was on

Wherever your group went, Genthru's wasn't far behind. After using up the Accompany cards, you all used Return to get back to Masadora.

Having no other choice, Genthru's group used their last Accompany to find where you guys were. The four of you took off running, with you lagging a little behind.

Each step hurt like hell, but you forced yourself to keep going until you had Genthru's group right where you wanted them.

They 'surrounded' the four of you as planned.

"Now, why don't you give up and hand over your cards?

"Why don't you give up and stop trying to murder children? Really, all this for a few cards?" You may or may not have been trying to stall for your leg to recoup. Didn't mean you were wrong though.

"If they're just cards you shouldn't have a problem turning them over."

Asshole. Luckily Gon redirected the conversation.

"We'll never let you have them! If you want our cards, come and get them!!!!"

"Wait! What? Damnit!" Killua pretended to be caught off guard. Then to sell the deal he said-

"Bisky! Get out of here, now!"

"But I-" She appeared hesitant to leave.

"I said run!" The small assassin jumped back as one of Genthru's men lunged forward and gave chase. You faked a gasp of surprise.

"Killua!!!" And followed after them. You could see the other goon go after Bisky. Which left Gon with Genthru.

God you hoped he'd hold out.

The plan, at least your part of the plan was simple. Because you weren't a fighter, you'd go after Killua and shadow him since he was still injured. Then you'd check on Bisky, just in case. And finally, you'd back track to Gon and see if he was okay. He was no doubt the strongest of your group, but you didn't trust Genthru one bit.

You could already feel his bloodlust increase.

--------------------------------------------

Killua led the enemy to an open area, with you not too far behind. You were being sloppy on purpose, and even though this brute could sense you, he still opted for attacking Killua first.

What a pathetic fool.

You supposed it worked in your favor. By the time the goon got a hit in and turned around, you were in place.

He couldn't even fathom what had happened besides the searing pain washing over his body.

You were leaning against a tree, a very familiar bucket by your side.

"Come on, if a twelve year old kid can take it, why can't you?" You taunted. The fool tried to get up and charge at you again, only to be pelted by more, larger, rocks.

"I'm not a fighter, so you'll have to excuse my rude etiquette. I'm more of a spectator. Come closer if you'd like, but I'm afraid you won't get very far."

"WHY YOU!!!!" He rushed forward, punch at the ready.

"You really shouldn't take your eyes off your real enemy." Killua appeared behind the man with electricity radiating off his palms. He placed them on the man's back, giving him a shock that sent him flying.

He stood paralyzed.

You glanced over to the white haired boy.

"That was slow, gremlin. I thought we went over speed."

He let out a huff.

"Yeah, yeah. Let me just experiment with a few more things." Then his mood lightened a bit.

"I've got a really cool one I think you might like. Let me know what you think."

Genthru's teammate looked very confused by the exchange between the two of you. Even more so when Killua pulled out a yo-yo.

You couldn't help the little 'ooh' that slipped out.

"Alright, let's go!" He threw the toy towards Genthru's man, narrowly avoiding him. The same couldn't be said for the tree that splintered on impact and collapsed.

You gave a small laugh.

"Christ, Killua! If I ever did anything that made you upset I'm sorry," your voice was full of amusement, not at all phased by the surprisingly strong yo-yo.

"WHAT THE HELL!?!? WHAT'S IT MADE OF!?!" Now, the man's aura radiated fear.

Killua continued doing what would have been normal tricks with the deadly toy.

"It's my brother's alloy. He came up with it himself. Weighs around 50kg. Packs a real punch. See!" He lobbed the yo-yo once again at the man.

You didn't hear that often about Killua's family, besides the few pieces he told you. (They were assassins and abused trained their kids). So hearing him talk fondly about his brother was a little strange.

Your train of thought was interrupted by what the goon thought was a successful attack.

He disarmed Killua and kicked his side. Poor fool was so distracted he didn't even notice the second yo-yo come from behind. The cracking sound let you know he probably broke his skull.

"Uh oh. Did I forget to mention I have two yo-yos?" Icy eyes beamed at you.

"Bet you didn't see that coming! Impressed yet?"

You put your hands up in surrender.

"Okay, I'll admit it. That was pretty unexpected. And cool. But I can sense another trick up your sleeve."

The guy in the floor was barely conscious at this point, but conscious nonetheless.

"An encore? Who am into refuse a humble request."

Then Killua was standing over the enemy.

"Hey old man, did you know that when you kick me you raise up your guard arm? It's like you're making your own blindspot."

Dread encompassed the man's aura, as if he just now realized it.

"Hang on! So that means that your blocking habit was-"

"Fake," you interjected. "It was pretty obvious. Nobody's stupid enough to get hit in the same place twice."

"And the first yo-yo, when he released it?"

"Yeah, I knew you picked something up to throw at me," Killua responded.

"Let's just say my eyes have been trained to look out for small rocks." He continued with a shiver.

"But you're great full for it, aren't you!!" You added.

"Yup! Without a doubt!" Killua said hurriedly.

What can you say, you loved giving people a hard time.

"That's enough talk for now," Killua raised up his arms with both yo-yos wound around them.

"Say goodnight, old man!" He released them, hitting Genthru's teammate directly on the back of his skull. Then he transferred his electricity down the strings and shocked him.

Once again, the young boy looked over to you with expectant eyes.

"So, what did you think?"

These boys really had to stop doing that.

"Hell of a job, kid. Let's see, I think if I had to choose... The last attack was definitely my favorite. Good touch adding your ability, really gave it that Killua flair."

He gave a wide grin, almost as wide as Gon's. Which was adorable on your end.

"Ha! Told you you'd like that one!"

Your own smile faded slightly.

"You'll be fine here on your own?"

"Yeah, I doubt this guy'll be getting up anytime soon. Are you sure you'll be fine?" He said eyeing you as you limped forward.

"This isn't my first rodeo, kid. Hell it hardly even hurts." You lied straight through your teeth.

It felt like you were standing on pins and needles. But loose ends needed tying.

--------------------------------------------------

You focused your eyes searching for the familiar auras of Bisky and Gon. Both strong, but one was a bit more refined. The other jittery.

You covered a substantial amount of distance before you were right in the middle of the two. The refined aura was by itself. Bisky already won her fight.

And before you could fully analyze the other, you felt an immense explosion of nen.

He didn't

He couldn't have

Damnit

You took off as fast as your injury would allow in the direction of the nen.

The same direction a very familiar aura was in.

Please be okay

---------------------------------------------

Pain

Excruciating, searing pain was all Gon could feel.

He sacrificed his arm to get a good kick on Genthru, and he could live with that. But his true mistake was believing for one second that Genthru would tell the truth. That he'd concede so easily.

Time seemed to slow down as he watched Genthru clench his fist and move it to strike. He could feel it graze his throat and then....

Nothing.

For a second, he couldn't feel the pain at all.

Just warmth.

He realized then that he couldn't see and his feet weren't touching the ground anymore.

Was he being carried?

"You're such a fool."

Y/n?

----------------------------------------------

You cradled Gon close to your chest, as if to shield him from the world. You made it just barley. One second later and his windpipe would've been shattered.

You didn't have the time to assess his injuries before you scooped him up, but you could smell the gunpowder residue. You could smell the burnt flesh.

You held the boy a little closer to you.

Yes, you were glad you prevented further injury, but you were also upset.

Upset at Genthru for taking advantage of Gon's naivety.

Upset at Gon for being so reckless.

And upset at yourself for not being faster.

"So you've finally come out to fight? What's the matter, did Sub already kill the other boy?" Genthru was trying to taunt you.

But you could feel his hesitance to attack. He didn't even know what happened himself until you were a good distance away with Gon.

His threats went of deaf ears though, you paid him no mind as you finally built up the strength to look at Gon's injuries.

"Don't worry, I'll kill the both of you so you'll be reunited in death!!!" He lunged forward, hand inches away from your shoulder, and then felt nothing. He tried to attack again but missed.

Every lunge, every reach of his arm, every quick movement you evaded. The worst part, you weren't even looking at him when you did. You didn't address him, didn't acknowledge him.

There was no way you were this fast!

There was no way you could be moving at a faster speed than him and not even be phased!

What the hell was going on!

On your end, you were torn between two choices. It would be so easy to take off with the boy in your arms. Let someone else take over and deal with the outcome. But it wasn't your place to do so.

No matter how badly you didn't want to see him suffer, this was his fight. You should let him find out the hard way and finish it.

But no kid should have to go through this.

He could barely stare up at you with one eye open and the other swelled shut. Nevermind his completely charred wrist and now stubbed arm.

At least the explosions had cauterized the wounds.

His aura was nervous with a hint of guilt. Judging by the look he was giving you, you must've appeared pissed.

"Don't- don't be mad at me, Y/n." He whispered out and clutched the front of your shirt.

Your previous frustration was replaced by concern.

"I know I was wrong for being selfish, but I just wanted to-" He cut himself off and hugged you tighter.

"I'm sorry. Please don't be mad. Please."

He just had his arm blown off and the thing he was worried about was your forgiveness.

Sometimes you couldn't tell who had it worse. Killua who was never shown an ounce of genuine love from his family, or Gon who felt if he got one thing wrong he would never be good enough for anybody.

You weren't upset anymore, but you still needed to lecture the boy on his carelessness.

"I'm not mad...not at you. Okay, not at you." Your words slightly relaxed him.

"But it's time for some tough love, okay?"

You felt him nod.

"No more messing around. No more trying anything that leaves you open for attacks. Either take the fight seriously or quit."

At last he looked up at you.

"I wanna finish it. I don't wanna let him get away with all the people he's hurt."

"Then stop acting like a prideful fool and do it."

By this point, Genthru was still trying and failing to land a hit on you. He saw you limping earlier, so it made no damn sense why you were still so fast.

He was left even more confused when you suddenly vanished from in front of him.

------------------------------------------------

You moved to set Gon down behind Genthru. Just as you did with Killua, you would shadow him in case anything else went wrong.

Gon quickly used an item card and summoned a jar of gasoline. By the time Genthru turned around, the jar was already broken and he was doused in the flammable liquid.

Genthru looked shocked by the sudden attack. Then he regained his murderous aura.

"Oh I see, this is gasoline. That's a good one. It's true that I can't use Little Flower now, however, I have another ability. Countdown."

Wasn't that the one that had been on Abengane's shoulder?

"You may recall that I can set a bomb on someone, and all I have to do is touch them and say the word 'bomber.'"

So it was the same one. The very attack that killed hundreds in seconds.

"And if you intend to disarm it, your only recourse would be to touch me while saying 'I caught the bomber.'" Genthru continued. He then looked back to where you were.

"All of the activation requirements have been met. If I touch him and say bomber, the countdown will begin. The boy's as good as dead, but I might be willing to spare him if you convinced him to hand over the cards."

You glared daggers at the sadistic man.

"Try it, but this kid won't lose that easily. In fact, I'd say your time is just about up." You pointed behind him as Gon started to charge up his attack.

"My requirements have been met too! Now, show me rock!" His fiery nen encompassed his good hand.

You could feel the surprise from Genthru once more.

"Jan-Ken-Rock!!!"

Gon punched straight down, effectively activating the trap. You jumped back slightly to avoid falling into the giant crater.

You focused your eyes to monitor the two auras below you. Genthru was right in the center.

Good, he was in place.

You watched as the giant boulder from before was released from the item card. It was too big to dodge, still you couldn't be sure until it crashed down.

You saw Gon's aura approach the other, then spike in what you assumed was a final attack. The other aura flickered, then disappeared.

He won.

Thank goodness!

You'd been so worried

You quickly ran down the wall of the crater and towards the secret tunnel Gon was in. He was already beaming up at you when you got there.

"Told you I could do it!" His smile was wiped away as the pain flared from his charred arm.

You flashed him a pained smile of your own. Your leg was killing you now that the adrenaline had worn off. But at least now you could relax a little.

"Yeah, you sure did. I'm proud of you." Your tone was uncharacteristically soft. It'd be a lot easier to stay mad at him if he didn't have her eyes.

You leaned down despite the pain of your left leg.

"Alright, let's go meet up with the others, you munchkin." You scooped him up into your arms once more.

"What about Genthru? How are you gonna carry him up?"

"I've got it covered, though I can't imagine it'd be a comfortable ride for him. Not like he deserves one anyway."

You felt Gon relax in your arms.

Shifting his weight onto one, you used the other hand to form strands of nen. You willed them to wrap around Genthru's body. It'd been a while since you had to use that part of your ability.

When you were sure the strands were sturdy enough, you took off, using leftover nen on the bottoms of your feet to help scale up the crater.

[cherryskyies]

hello! may i request something for hunter x hunter? may I have some headcanons for gon (or killua, honestly either one is perfect!) where the reader is like a big sister-figure to him? like they are friends, but gon (or killua) sees her as the loving, protective sister he didn't have who just loves him and cheers him on always! thank you so so so much! <3

Gon and Killua with a big sister figure

Hello! Thank you for this request, I enjoyed writing it! I ended up doing Gon and Killua for this. I hope you enjoy!

Main Masterlist

Gon

When you first joined the group, Gon knew he was going to enjoy having you around. You weren’t as energetic as he was, but you were smart, funny, and caring and that was enough for him.

There is just something about you that brings him comfort. Perhaps it’s the way you care for him like his aunt, or maybe it’s just your calm aura. Either way, it didn’t take long for him to consider you his sister

He tries to be extra careful when playing around with Killua because he doesn’t want you to worry the way you do every time he gets injured. Gon truly tries to keep your stress levels to a minimum.

“These are my friends, and the girl over there talking to Kurapika is my sister!” Yes, that’s how he introduces you to everyone, as his sister. One time, you even caught a glimpse of the note he was writing to his aunt and it said, “I consider (Y/N) my sister now, she reminds me of you with the way she worries and cares.” 

Always hugs you goodbye and informs you where he is headed off to (Usually somewhere with Killua) before leaving.

He made you and him matching bracelets one time and neither of you has taken it off yet. Not like you’d want to anyway. You’ll wear that messily braided green bracelet till the day you die and someone rips it off your wrist.

Insists that you teach him all of your cool tricks. His favorite that you’ve taught him so far is roller skating. He’s proud that he can both skateboard and roller-blade thanks to you and Killua.

His nickname for you is “Koi” because he thinks Koi fish are comforting and relaxing to watch.

He loves when you cheer him on with whatever it is that he’s doing. Whether it be dueling Killua or trying to fish, you always cheer him on.

Killua

He never thought a person could be so….caring? It’s such a foreign thing to him due to the way he was brought up. Killua isn't used to someone making sure he ate, drank water, got sleep, and wasn’t injured.

He warmed up to the affection quickly. One does not realize how touch starved they until they've felt a gentle touch.

Killua truly appreciates you and the things you do for him. He might act like he doesn’t care, but the way he still listens to whatever it was you told him says otherwise.

It's nice to have someone tend to his bruises and scrapes, and It's nice to know someone cares about his well-being. 

Living a carefree life with parents and siblings who couldn't care less about anything but power wasn't exactly fun for him. 

You're the reason he gets to know what a normal childhood feels like, to know what having someone that cares feels like. He's extremely thankful for you.

Won't admit it, but he's accidentally slipped up in a few conversations with Gon where he says you're a sister to him.

He tolerates absolutely no slander towards you. If he catches wind of someone talking bad about you, their body is sure to show up on the news the next morning. Nobody will disrespect one of the few people that truly care for him and get away with it.

Often comes to you for advice. Killua trusts you and you're the only one he'll accept advice from, maybe Gon too. Depends on what the advice is for.

Unlike Gon, he doesn't have a nickname for you. Occasionally he will call you "Mom," but it's in a sarcastic way. 

It makes him happy when you cheer him on, even for the small things like when he learned a new skateboard trick.

I also love u bringing up Killua's strategical prowess, intelligence, a good ability to read other people, etc. And how ride and die and loyal he is/can be. And other stuff too ofc. I also love the comparison u made with Killua and onions. And the Gojou and coconut comparison was interesting.

Anyways, that was a really interesting (and good) post u made!

I hadn't been too bothered by the Killua and Kakashi with each other or the comparisons with them and Gojo, mainly because I feel like it came from a huge place of love for Killua and Kakashi (so people thinking they were alike is just them loving both characters. Or people thinking of these characters when it comes to Gojo. Thinks comes mainly from a place that they love these characters, so they would want them to see them again in some other form. Like in Gojo).

Though, I can why you and other people in the tags think the comparisons between Killua and Gojou would be slanderous to Killua (I could see the same argument being made that it is slanderous to Kakashi too). And why people wouldn't like it and/or be annoyed by it. (I think even said to a friend of mine, that Gojou was like a ripoff of Killua and Kakashi, but not anywhere near as good. Which, might have been a bit harsh on my part. But like I have said; I like Killua and Kakashi more than Gojou. And I don't hate him, from the bits and pieces I have seen of him). Killua and Gojo and Kakashi and Gojou are very characters after all.

U bring up Leorio and Gojou comparisons and/or reactions to those comparisons, and those seem to skew both more positive and negative, same with the Gon and Geto comparisons and/or reactions to that.

Still amazes me people were trying to compare Killugon to Geto x Gojou. Like, u could think there was something going on between Geto and Gojou all u want, but from what I have seen of them, I don't really see the similarities between them and Killugon.

(Also, I just think Killugon is just the better relationship and ship personally. Even though I don't have anything people liking Geto and Gojou and shipping them).

Last of all, I know u are annoyed by like Gojou, Geto, and/or Gojou x Geto fans, and them invading ur comfort HxH fandom tag(s), which, I get. I am not too into the JJK or the fandom, so I don't completely get it, but I get u feeling like that.

I will say though, on the SPOILERS:

Gojou death thing, I was reading and watching some stuff about that, and while yes, while some people are upset a "sexyman" died or I character they loved and/or etc. of theirs' died (which, I think people being upset that a character they loved died is a [pretty] normal reaction. Though sometimes reactions to this kind of thing; talking generally here, can be weird and/or bad. For both good and/or bad reasons), honestly, I saw a lot of people saying that they didn't mind and/or expected Gojo to die; they just didn't like how it happened and some of the implications of the fight and for characters and even stuff going into the future. I saw even people who wanted Sukuna to win, not really liking how it was done either. To be fair for some of the people who didn't like how Gojo died.

I also saw people basically saying that Geje's hate for Gojo got in the way of certain things, and I could see that too. Sometimes loving or even hating a character can cause great writing and stuff, but sometimes it can cause not-always-the-greatest and/or more mid writing, to even bad(-ish) writing. Also, I saw someone bring up how Gojo and Sukana's fight should have been more like Netero and Meruem, instead of what they got (honestly, maybe the fight should have been more like Chrollo and Hisoka, hmmmm??). Reading and watching stuff about the Sukana and Gojou fight and Gojou's death, has been a, trip and interesting, I guess, to say the least.

Alright, finally done w/ these asks. I got really long and rambly w/ these. I just had a lot of thoughts about (all) this.

2/2.

I don't know anything about Kakashi, so I can't comment on that. But I sympathise with his fans who have to deal with Gojou allegations.

The problem with some of the Gojou fans is that they have been making the JJK tags insufferable since long before I've even started looking at those tags. I've mentioned it before but you will regularly find posts with manga caps/ screen caps of other characters, with other character tags, scenes that are important for those other characters, and some deranged Gojou/Getou fan twisting that scene and making it about Gojou, Getou or the both of them. It's honestly kinda scary to read text posts in this fandom because there's just so much of that. And Gojou and Getou exist so much as fanon. People completely pretending that Getou wasn't a fascist, that he was justified in murdering his whole family, that it's somehow wholesome that he took in two abused girls and indoctrinated them into his genocidal cult. Or people pretending Gojou was somehow a caring person, and his relationships with his students weren't utilitarian. That he also didn't flirt with supremacy and might makes right, he just didn't go as far as Getou. That Megumi doesn't react to Gojou like traumatised kids react to their toxic parents. And much much more, I've written extensively what I think of what Gojou was really like. But I still like him as a character, though not at as a person. (I talk about him more in-depth in several places but here's an ask discussion where I actually go into detail on what I think of him: here, here, here.)

Kinda like what you talked about with the Zoldycks. People can't like these characters until the sanitise them into something they aren't. Gojou can't have cool fights and an awful personality. He needs to be cool and good in every way.

It's also a problem with people wanting to see similarities so badly. Like reaching desperately to compare characters and for what? Is like like that in those people's minds, if certain aspects of character design are similar, the totality of the characters needs to be similar too. The appearance can't be just a surface level nod, it has to mean something, blah blah. I don't get it personally. There's a shit ton of white haired manga characters but not all of them are similar. And surface level similarity means nothing when if you dive even a bit underneath the surface you see that their whole backstory, personality and arcs are different, that the themes surrounding them are different.

As to the Gojou and Sukuna fight, I've written in many places that I'd rather it had never happened. And I do have gripes with how Gojou was presented in the fight, etc. That being said Sukuna's win is very well justified and it had been very well set up. And for Sukuna fans, like me that fight is decent because it really fleshes Sukuna out a bit.

I really disagree with the "Gege hates Gojou" fandom belief. I find it completely baseless. Gege is very self deprecating in how they speak about themself and their characters. There aren't many characters that Gege speaks about in some super positive way. They usually play down all their characters. But they also flesh a lot of them out a lot and that's how writers show love to their characters. The characters you can say a writer dislikes are those which get little to no consideration. And Gojou gets a lot of consideration. He gets several fights where he gets to do cool stuff, people even call him Goatjou and like it's not because the author neglects him, quite the opposite actually. He is very well fleshed out, he's just an irresponsible, selfish asshole with a god complex. Creating a character to be an asshole is not hating that character, it's just creating a certain type of character because they are needed in the story. Gojou's ideals from the start have been shaky, his plan to change the jujutsu society is shit from the start. He treats everyone around him like trash and then whines about feeling lonely. Nothing about what happens with his death hasn't been set up.

Sukuna vs Gojou could never have been like Meruem and Netero because there was no clash of ideals between them. No emotional investment on either side. Just vanity and arrogance, and practicality. Sukuna vs Gojou actually is a little like Hisoka vs Chrollo in that respect. Because Hisoka went into that fight arrogant and vain, though for him it's more set up because that his whole life mission to fight and kill strong opponents. And Chrollo, like Sukuna took that fight because he had to, otherwise Hisoka wouldn't have fucked off. And well after death he still hasn't. And like Sukuna, Chrollo devised a plan and prepared exactly for the opponent he was facing. He fought smart, just like Sukuna. They aren't exactly the same. Sukuna doesn't really feel like he's streaching the limitations of the power system and Chrollo kinda does to me. Also I personally can't stand Chrollo as a person, I'm with Killua on this one, he's fake deep. But yeah, if this fight must be compared to something in HxH, the Hisoka vs Chrollo can be that.

_________

PS

If people want to compare someone to Killua then here, I will throw them a bone. I present to you Gabimaru the Hollow or as I like to call him Killuamaru. He's the protag of JigokuRaku (Hell's Paradise) and omg this ace assassin who was tortured into what he is and has sever programming to overcome and just wants a normal life feels quite often like Killua being on loan in a different manga because Togashi isn't using him rn. Hell's Paradise is a neat but rather gory and creepy shounen, with a lot of canonical queerness. And a lot of flowers.
