Like everyone else, Iâm in love with Dynama. However, this little Kacchan statement wouldnât leave me alone. This phrase âdreadnought loveââ what the hell is that? To Google!
The kanji è¶
ćŒ©çŽ is for the word âChoudokyuuâ, which is literally a âsuper dreadnoughtâ, or a warship consisting entirely of big guns, but also a word used to describe something extraordinary, the best of the best. (Donât bother searching the romaji, all youâll get is a manga about a giant girl).
An image search of the kanji however (i.e. the imagery Japanese readers will associate with the word) results in pretty much every image being a trading card of this super tank/cannon war machine thing, frankly one of the most Kacchanish things ever. The rainbow background was a happy surprise. đ
So, basically, heâs saying that he wants love to hit him like a fucking cannon (as opposed to Cupidâs piddly-ass arrow I guess?). He demands to be seen as cute, and demands a love as powerful as one of his own special moves (howitzer, panzer, dynamite etc.)
THIS BOY is READY to be considered a love interest.
ââââââââ-
EDIT 29.12.22:
Hold the goddamn phones oh shit thereâs more!!
Okay, so I was thinking about the fact that this mini comic was supposed to come out with the Chiikawa collab, and wondered what was going on with the manga at that time (April).
Well, while Kacchan was wishing for a transcendent warship of love to come smash him right in the heart (sorry), guess which shitnerd was, at that exact moment, propelling himself across the ocean like a cannonball to come back to his side? FHDIKSBDAJSSJ
Itâs me, ya boy Choudeku.
Iâm palpitating. Maybe Hori decided not to release it at the time because itâs so on the feckin nose?!

2020 Creator Wrap: Favorite Works
I will admit I got a lil Emotional that I got tagged in this but Iâm so excited to go through it because this year has been SO PRODUCTIVE for me when it comes to writing. Thank you to the legend @that0negayslytherinâ for tagging me and the other legends, you the real MVP (and also thanks again for setting up the LV fic discord bc that place... really b Wild and really b a wonderful place to motivate each other to be our best.) Legends only!!
Anyhway! Onto this thing... Iâm excited.
[rules: itâs time to love yourselves! choose your 5 (or so) favourite works you created in the past year (fics, art, edits, etc.) and link them below to reflect on the amazing things you brought to the world in 2020. tag as many writers/artists/etc. as you want (fan or original) so we can spread the love and link each other to awesome works!]
So. Most of my works from this year have been Venji related because Iâm still in the deep pit of Love, Victor obsession and idk when thatâll go away. Hopefully not anytime soon because Iâm having a great time and fic was an amazing way for me to improve my craft. I do have one piece of original work on this list, but the rest is fic. Itâs difficult to choose favorites so I think Iâll go chronologically. A couple of these have graphics but not all of them. Anyway... letâs get into this, shall we.
Arakhne of the Floating Mountain
So this the first work I completed this year. Itâs an original novella I wrote for Wattpadâs Open Novella Contest and itâs a very fun, character-centric story that reimagines Arakhne/Arachne (the one from the legend who gets turned into a spider after challenging Athena) as a lonely lesbian who lives alone on, you guessed it, a palace on a mountain in the sky, until three sisters drop by asking for her to create their coronation dresses for when they become the queens of Heaven, Hell and Purgatory. The sisters (Soledad, Luna and Estelle) basically try to court her and itâs a good time. Obviously, I didnât win the competition but it was still a really fun story for me to write and part of my journey of realizing I can create a writing habit and work on something over the course of a long time, since the only other completed long work I had was for NaNo, which was just binge-writing over 30 days before I had the chance to get bored. If youâre into magical lesbians, check it out!
The stars will love me even if you donât
I have so much to say about this work. I started it just on a whim in August after I watched Love, Victor in July and began wanting to actually contribute to the works of fandom. Little did I know that I would be embarking on a journey of 120k words and counting, with 33 chapters. This story deals with a whole random of issues -- from long-distance relationships, substance abuse, mental health problems especially around anxiety and depression/suicidality, toxic relationships, codependency, self-harm, the project of becoming oneself and being able to manage life and navigate the world in a healthy way, all the things. In a lot of ways, it is a personal project. But also in a lot of ways I wanted to correct a lot of ideas we have about what constitutes a healthy relationship and what love should look like. There were many times when I wanted to give up on this project due to frustration and exhaustion, but I continued to work at it. I learned so much about my own capabilities, about developing a writing habit, and about what itâs like to write a behemoth of a story. It isnât perfect by any means but I appreciate the people who have reached out to me and told me that they learned some things about themselves from reading. This is truly a labor of love and I can see that it already accomplished the goal I set for myself which was to help people. Itâs lit. And thank you so much to @callmevenjiâ for the lovely cover!! Sheâs a legend!!Â
The Thousand-Eyed Wraith (TTEW)
This was a little one-shot I wrote for the Halloween Venji Fic Fest and it takes place in the world of my original work, The Thousand-Eyed Crow. Basically, itâs about what would happen if Venji ended up in that world and had to deal with some spooky nonsense and eventually ended up joining a cult. It was fun for me because it was more stream of consciousness and post-modernist, which is very different to how I normally write but it was a really fun experiment tbh.Â
You Only Live Forever (YOLF)
This was another one-shot I wrote for the Fic Fest, but this one was much smuttier and mature than TTEW. I was really inspired by Beyonceâs âPartitionâ (the song and the video lmao) and thought it would be interesting to put Venji in a world similar to Greendale in The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina but with s*x magic, so it was essentially a Love, Victor and CAOS cross-over for grownups lol. Apparently it worked out well, though, and they ended up trying to summon Satan which went... questionably. But I had a lot of fun writing this, as well, especially when it came to sorta balancing the old-timey setting with the modern day and the smutty scenes with the softer, fluffier ones.Â
Part of Your World
So one day I had an idea to write a Little Mermaid-inspired Venji story that would be so sweet and romantic... And so I did. I took a lot of inspiration from several sources -- one, of course, was the Disney version of the Little Mermaid, as well as the original version which is a lot darker and more sinister, as well as mythology around sirens and selkies and just, I guess like, class warfare. So I ended up with a sorta more adult-version of the Little Mermaid where Benji gets attacked by humans and is distrustful of them until he meets Victor who is ânot like other humansâ and helps patch him up, and they embark on a bit of a whirlwind romance. This has been a treat to work on even though itâs probably one of my least popular fics because I imagine people are coming for something a bit more light-hearted but Iâm incapable of writing something that is 100% fun and not chock full of imagery and meaning. I think this has also been the work that showcased and tested my imagery-writing and dialogue-writing abilities the most and brought out my inner poet. And once again a huge thank you to @callmevenjiâ for the fanart, if you havenât already followed her you should bc sheâs a legend.
Dead Men Feed the Fish
Finally, my last and most recent work is also the story I worked on for NaNoWriMo this year. 63,000 words completed in less than a month, depicting the initial meeting of Venji and the way their romance develops and deepens over time. Itâs just (chefâs kiss). I had originally had the idea for pirate!Venji and really wanted to write it because I was inspired by That One Scene in Pirates of the Caribbean, which is probably one of the most romantic scenes Iâve ever seen and between the only het pairing I stan. So I just had to write a story that included this scene and that allowed me to write my dream scenario of Venji out on the open seas being gay and having a good time and going on adventures and having homoerotic sword fights. This story has basically everything -- romance, action, adventure, magic/fantasy, a lil bit of spice/kink, good communication, tension, cute animals, everyone is gay, whatâs not to love. Iâm also looking to edit and publish traditionally so Iâm in the process of fixing all that up now. And once again, thank you to @callmevenjiâ for the brilliant fanart!
Anyway, that was that, and I hope that if you have the time and you get the chance, that you give some of my works a shot because I would be very grateful and I think you will have fun.Â
Iâll tag @kateis-cakeisâ, @g531â, and I guess anyone else who wants to do this!Â

Random but my chemical romance has helped victims of rts so much.
Like o remember listening to house of wolves for the first timeâ aware of the blasphemy â but this raw instinct pulling me to scream the lyrics at the top of my lungs on my kitchen counter. Little did I know that they gave a face to the problems that I was facingâ this invisible antagonist wasnât the devil or some neo-liberal conspiracy, but the system that was force feeding me these lives.
MCR taught me how to subvert religious imagery for narrative purposes, how i can use the fallen angel metaphore to cope with my own trauma, and how to reclaim imagery that was at one point used as a threat and use it as a gift, as a battle cryâ as a tool for creativity. I wouldnât have been able to write such raw pros in my writing, heavily laced with religious themes of falling from grace, if they hadnât had taught me to give a name to the problems I was seeing.
Hell, my book probably wouldnât be the same without them normalizing lgbtq peopleâ and giving me the freedom to experience and cope with comp het towards men who are actually good and progressive, instead of having rape nightmares about figureheads in Christian media. Eventually this gave way to me being free to explore my sexuality outside of just gnc menâ but also to women, and eventually realizing the difference between real and fake attraction.
My writing wouldnât have antagonists who abuse religion, but antagonists of that same, nameless fear that consumed me throughout my childhoodâ a fear that was marked by a crosses and hellfire.
Thanks my chemical romance, for helping me come face to face with the reality of the abuse I was facing, and for helping me undo the teachings that were ingrained into my head
