book 7 part 10 thoughts!

***THIS POST CONTAINS MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR BOOK 7 PART 10 OF THE MAIN STORY!!***

Please note: this is NOT meant to be a summary or a translation; these are only my initial thoughts on the events that roughly unfold. There may be details overlooked or misunderstood in this post, so PLEASE do not use this as a translation.

This update spans part 158 to part 191.

BAHAHAHAHAHA THEY'RE AT THE CORAL SEA (not "in" it yet, more like at the surface level of it) AND JAMIL'S ALREADY UPSET OVER THE LOCALE

Jamil comes up with the smart idea of using ice magic to make a boat for them all. Silver takes up the oars (how princely lmao) and Ortho praises the second years for being so reliable!

WEL;ANJFDBIUGSOGSBIAF THAT BOAT DIDN'T LAST LONG, LITERALLY ONLY A SINGLE PART BEFORE WE CAPSIZE????? We see a dark and gloomy place with an abandoned ship, similar to where Ariel was exploring in the opening of The Little Mermaid. The gang can breathe though, since Idia hacked in bubbles around each person to provide them with an air dome made of magic nanomachines.

THERE HE IS FELLAS, MERMAID FLOYD PULLED UP. Mmm, interesting?? He sounds really flat and bored, expressing that he no longer has an interest in land creatures since everyone was weak + so easily deceived by Azul. Floyd also seems to report that Azul has found success with Mostro Lounge...? And Jade is probably supporting him there.

Floyd tells us that he's been traveling Twisted Wonderland in his dream world. He's been to the Shaftlands (Fairest City??) to try out the latest fashion and model (but got bored because he was asked to work exclusively with the brand), worked part-time in a restaurant in the Sunshine Lands (but got bored because so many people wanted to eat his food), and exploring the Scalding Sands. Floyd wandered the desert and found a black magic lamp in the Cave of Wonders and decided to bring it home because Jade said "the teapot" would be nice to have. Floyd summoned the genie and used it to wish for delicious food, www

He mentions having plans to visit other places too, like the Queendom of Roses, Briar Valley, Sunset Savanna, etc. (Floyd's looking for a challenging opponent to fight!!) But now he has returned to the sea, even though he considers it boring too. Floyd basically tells them to fuck on off and then stares floating around depressingly.

Idia theorizes that Floyd must be "resetting" his dream again and again since Malleus has set the parameters to achieve a "happy ending". Since Floyd is constantly dissatisfied, the dream continues to scrounge for something that will please him. The happiness never really lasts long though. The group decides that they have to provide him with that strong foe he wants to shock him awake!

OH MY GOD Silver and Jamil just walk up to Floyd and tell him he’s in a dream. Of course he doesn’t believe them????? But then they start telling him stories of things that happened irl including clarifying what it was that Floyd had done to disrupt his own first year opening ceremony. Apparently he grabbed Riddle’s hair and went “oh, it’s bright red but it isn’t hot”, which led into a massive fight with Riddle shooting fire at him. The staff (specifically Vargas) had to hold Riddle back. There’s another story of how Floyd tried to fight Cater but Cater used his UM to hold Floyd back and bro wiped hard 💀 According to Idia, Malleus and Leona also beat Floyd in combat.

Jamil talks about how sometimes Floyd would find it hard to keep up with him and/or how Floyd would get in trouble for wailing on the younger kids in their club. The headmaster wasn’t happy and made Floyd clean up the gym for a week

Wh A t😭 Grim recalls how Octavinelle made us HOMELESS in book 3 (and then how they got their asses beat BUT I’M BAWLING AT THE AUDACITY)

The dream manifests a fake Jade and Azul to drag Floyd deeper… We finally get a non-OB octoform Azul to look at!!

They goad Floyd and say he shouldn’t lose to land creatures, so beat them back and then the three of them can live peacefully in the sea together. Silver warns Floyd not to listen to the fake Jade and Azul, but he ends up not needing their help??? Instead Floyd blows up at the fakes and claims Jade and Azul would never say such boring things. Like, he actively gets SO pissed off that they’re borrowing their faces and voices to try and deceive him 😭

They tell Floyd about what’s going down and he’s delighted??? He starts calling out locations and the dream responds to it, he thinks it’s so interesting. Idia and co. panic because this spike in activity could alert Malleus OTL

They theorize that Jade’s dream may take place in the mountains, so Floyd should change into a land form.

When they change to Jade’s dream, Floyd praises Silver’s UM. Silver is flattered but Jamil is thanking the stars that someone mindful like Silver has Meet in a Dream and not Floyd. He says Floyd would probably abuse the UM and give people nightmares lmao

Now they’re in a part of the Coral Sea that has tons of underwater volcanos. Floyd saves us all from a blast of black smoke from one of the vents. Idia warns the air domes are not strong, so one blast from the smoke could drown them all.

Floyd suggests Idia make merforms for everyone. However, Idia says it’s hard to do, especially on a short time frame, since he lacks data on merpeople.

OOOOOH Floyd reveals his bioluminescence!! Looks so pretty aaaaaaah ✨ (He calls it “counter illumination”?)

J WORD SiGHTING

OOOOOH I GET IT, the volcanic vents are like the sea’s equivalent of “mountains”. He and dream!Azul are exploring this area looking for a gold mine or something. Interesting that Jade dreams of still assisting Azul for fun…

sguaddr(dFacFFh ??!!\!]]!£]!] AZUL????? He got hit by a blast from the vent while casting magic on it to get to some gold ore he spotted. Jade gets a good laugh out of it.

WHO THE FuCK ARE yoU, WhY Sre your eyes SO Big AnD WAtERY

Azul tearfully declares he won’t give up and Jade gases him up 😭 YOUR DREAM IS TO BULLY AND ENABLE HIM??????? WOW J WORD

Floyd claims he would never go mountain climbing with Jade but then—

WhAT YHR fUVkinh FVkkkKKKKKKKKKK

THAT’S DREAM!FLOYD?????!!?!!! HE LOOKS SO FRIGHIn DERPY 😭 😭 😭 BRo JUST StARTS EATINg SHRIMP AnD HAPPILY GOING AlONG WiTH wHatEVEF JAde AsAyS

Floyd gets pissed off seeing all of this and goes in for the attack. Everyone panics, but Jamil pulls a Silver book 7 part 9 and basically tells them to let Floyd cook 💀

Dream!Azul of course tries to convince Jade that Floyd is dumb and cute and everything, not some THUG cbjssbkwebodnxsk Jade is convinced that “this” Azul and Jade would use useless without him so he buys dream!Azul’s lies. FLOYD GETS MORE ANGRY THRymRE GONNa BRaWLLLLLLL

Uhhhh so fighting doesn’t wake Jade up. Idia suggests this is because while Jade doesn’t have a particularly strong imagination, he’s good at exploring possible scenarios within himself…? Not sure if I totally understood the wording here (I’ll have to double check with other sources later), all you gotta know if that punching was ineffective. ***Edit: It’s because (according to Idia), Jade has a strong belief in himself.***

OH, WORM??? J WORD AnD FKOYD ArE mAKinG HISSING NoiSES At eaCH OYher As THEY FIGHT (the NPC Azul and Floyd are busy cowering in a corner) 🍿 I believe it was previously said in a voice line or some vignette that when the twins fight, they get VIOLENT and it’s kinda funny we get to see it on-screen now.

Sebek gets the idea to stop both of the twins’ movements with his UM. (Very thoughtfully, he warns everyone, particularly Ortho, to stand back before he casts Living Bolt.) It works very well because salt water conducts electricity better than distilled water!! I think that helps Jade with realizing something’s off because right when dream!Azul and Floyd rush to him, Jade points out that the real ones wouldn’t call him “cute” and such.

WHoa WHOA, sCARY hot

Aaaand we got two eels added to the party! Onward to Azul’s dream~ (jxbsksvxiwnw J WoRD THROWS uP)

We’re underwater again! Jade theorizes it must be because Azul has expanded the Mostro Lounge into a worldwide chain, since Azul has expressed the desire to run a successful restaurant business like his mother.

We hear cheering, it seems to be from a Coral Rush (underwater ball) game. It’s similar to Magical Shift, but instead of brooms you ride on the backs of dolphins. Coral Rush is popular among merfolk!

WhAT

If I was drinking something then I would be spitting it up right now because WhY IS AZUL AN ATHLETE (If I’m understanding this correctly, he’s playing for a Coral Rush team called Golden Trident? And he’s the LEADER) 😂 I guess maybe because he’s been insecure about this weakness of his…?

MAN. Jamil is going to bully his ass later about this, I just KNOW he is… Azul goes all chuuni and shouts “KRAKEN SHOT” before scoring 🪦 Cringefail bbg…

OH MY GOD THIS SHADY BITCH

Jade has “-san” in quotation marks 💀 HE’S BEING TOTALLY SARCASTIC

Fun little detail, it looks like the Octatrio had a group handshake…? Jade and Azul do it here and later Jade and Floyd do the same, ending it each time with a cute little “yaaay” 🥺

dndjsnkweneow Jade asks Azul to sign Idia’s tablet OTL YOU ASSHOLE BE SO FR RIGHT NOW

Azul remembers “Leech-kun” and “Leech-kun” (*shudders*) from elementary school. His team mates call out to him and Azul invites us to their victory celebration at his mother’s restaurant (which finally gets a name!!! It’s called La Grotta). Apparently it would be hard for your average student to get in, but with Azul’s invite we should be okay!

Jade starts brainstorming again and suggests that this dream is what we see because Azul wanted you to erase the sad past in which he was bullied. He says he won’t divulge too many details since it involves Azul’s privacy (aw, the ONE time he decides to not leak info 😂).

Aaaaah Idia says he has a bad feeling about something… which gives ME a bad feeling…

They arrive at La Grotta and Azul casts a spell that makes an anemone crop up on everyone’z head?! Azul says that anemones are the most formal hair accessory one can wear in the sea; it makes them “fit in” more. He leaves Jade and Floyd alone though since they’re already merfolk.

Uhhhh Grim gets distracted with dancing and drags Sebek off with him??? Okay???

The entire time this is going down, the twins are watching silently.

Grim, Sebek, and Ortho dance but they end up falling down. The mob merpeople start to laugh and make fun of land creatures. It’s then we learn that Azul lied about the sea anemone being associated with high status, it’s instead something that indicates stupidity. So… uh… He just wanted to bully us??? This whole dream is playing out like a bitter high school revenge fantasy…

Azul says the twins can stay if they play Coral Rush with him. Surely they’re tired of hanging around dumb land creatures right? It’s better to come along with him.

Floyd makes a mess and passes an antique to Jade, and the two start to “play” with it. (… Nah, they start breaking shit 😬)

LOL???? Is Azul threatening to sue the fins off of the twins??? He’s all like “MY PAPA’S A LAWYER YOU KNOW” at them… (He also calls his mom “mama”; the word choice and behavior really makes me think he’s a mama’s/daddy’s boy.)

Jade says to everyone that we should move onto the next dream. He pretends (?) to leave, which triggers a memory of book 3 where Azul declares that he’s always going to be alone.

HMMMMMMMMMMM, there’s no dream!Floyd or dream!Jade to lure Azul to the darkness, only the mermobs 🤔

Ortho expects the twins to dive after him, but neither of them do 🤡 They say it’s Azul’s choice to dream more deeply, so they’ll allow him to.

Grim drowns in the darkness so we (Yuu, Silver, Jamil, Sebek) go after him. Ortho tries to appeal to the twins by saying if they don’t follow, then they’ll be trapped in the dream forever. Sooo Jade and Floyd depart into the dark. Ortho is left wondering if this coldness is actually how the twins express trust.

LOLLLLLl???????? Azul’s setting the photo of their class trip on fire and laughing like a maniac… (He also has apparently gained Ramshackle AND stolen the UMs of his fellow dorm leaders.) I counted, Azul has no less than like 3-4 Evil Villain Laughs this update 💀 OKAY KING POP OFF LIVE LAUGH LOVE

They split into two groups (the player gets to go with J word 😳), each with the goal of taking out one of the dream!Tweels. Jamil lures dream!Floyd out to the basketball court under the false pretenses of a special club activity (where a strong merman opponent would be present).

Jade meanwhile goes to the botanical garden?? And he starts to smash plant pots… He claims it’s a dream so it’s okay! It’s not like he’s doing this because he wants to (lie). Jade makes (anemoned) Grim take a bunch of rare ingredients he “harvested” to Mostro Lounge.

Azul becomes interested in the ingredients and wants access to the source to maximize profits. Dream!Jade is led off by Grim and Yuu to the woods behind campus. SILBEK JUMP HIM—

Jade uses Shock the Heart to learn where Azul has moved the contracts. They weren’t in his office vault when the group checked earlier; the contracts are now in Azul’s room…? Which… I feel like that was such an obvious place to check, not sure why the thought didn’t occur to them sooner??

They find the contracts but there’s like 500 of them and no efficient way to destroy so many in a short amount of time. Ortho suggests his beam, but it might result in collateral damage to them if he fires it this close. Floyd says they can just trick Azul into destroying the contracts himself but before they can say anything more they hear voices getting closer.

Jade and Floyd return to Azul warning him that someone is after his contracts, so Azul, concerned, asks for the contracts so he can relocate them again. When they don’t, he starts threatening them (even saying that the headmaster is under his thumb too, no one at this school can oppose him).

Azul is baited to cast a spell at them, which Floyd deflects with Bind the Heart. He then summons anemones (Ace, Deuce, Riddle, Leona, Kalim, Idia) to help him. Some mob anemones called him “Azul-sama” in dead-sounding voices which. Makes me think maybe he stole Jamil’s Snake Whisper in the dream too??

Together, the twins keep taunting their dorm leader until Azul unleashes King’s Roar. They use Bind the Heart once again to redirect Leona’s UM and dust the contracts ✨ (We also got Floyd’s UM chant!! Roughly: “This is a nice place/it was just getting good, but how about I interrupt it?”)

NxdbsjsbkFAJHQAN OF COURSE THAT’A WHEN AzUL BREAks 😭 and it happens like automatically too… The loss of the contracts really is a sore spot for him.

Here comes the suspicious black gloop again~

Azul starts to sink down BUT THIS TIME YHE TWINS CALL OUT HIS NAME AND GRAB ONTO HIM?????? Jade even specifically tells Azul to “take his hand” and instructs Floyd to help pull. Ayo… the “take my hand” imagery again…

Waaah… Octavinelle trusts each other so much?? When Silver warns them that he doesn’t know what will happen to the twins if they end up in Azul’s abyss, Jade and Floyd wish Azul luck/don’t go to hell AND AZUL’s CASUALLy LIKE “you too” 🤡

Azul finally faces his OB self!! How interesting, he tells his OB that with the weight of all that he stole from others, it’s hard to move. I think he means that metaphorically… like, it’s hard to achieve personal growth if all you do is take and hurt people. “Unlike you, I’ve learned.” He wants to make his dream of making everyone bow down to him a reality on his own. Azul’s not satisfied with this, he wants something of “real value”.

Azul wakes up back in his mom’s restaurant and surrounded by his team members. He asks them to sign a contract which states they will all continue playing hard together. Duh, it’s a trap and actually anemones them. The contract just handed all their powers over to Azul 💀 Bro… How dumb are you, you didn’t even SKIM to check the terms of the contact are what to claimed them to be??

Azul regroups with the others and they inform him of what’s going on. He immediately expresses concern that the Mostro Lounge hasn’t been operating + the ingredients in their fridge might spoil because of Malleus’s magic. Man has his priorities www Thankfully they’re fine since the flow of time has stopped and potential customers are all sleeping. No ingredients or business lost!! Azul still wants Malleus to pay him back for the inconveniences though.

Ortho recommends that Jade and Floyd stay behind, as they both have taken significant damage from fighting. Idia adds that they should lower the number of people dream hopping to minimize the chance of bugs showing up; Jamil volunteers. Azul says it’s a shame because he was looking forward to fighting alongside him; Jamil says that “friends” with Octavinelle’s dorm leader has its uses, so he “looks forward to it.”

… Jamil acknowledging what Azul wants and agreeing to go along with it feels… weird…

Azul joins us and we hasten to the next dream. “Time is money!!” so chop, chop!! Next update… Savanaclaw!!

Overall, I really enjoyed seeing the twins fight, as well as seeing their more animalistic aspects (ie the bioluminescence) come out. The Coral Sea locations were so fun and colorful, it makes me want a hometown event even more!! Merform Azul we kiiiind of already saw with his OB form (and I’d seen lots of edits from fans making their own prior to this) but I thought it was nice to have that confirmation nevertheless.

There were a lot of small moments that made me do a double take (derpy dream!Floyd is one, Azul’s Big Bad scenes were several others). It was cute to see their Club Wear outfits utilized in the dreams too; we saw Basketball Club and Mountain Lovers Club looks make an appearance. I felt like I was watching some kind of variety show while reading.

This update gave me many thoughts, most of them surrounding the Octatrio and their relationship with one another. I’d like to talk more at length about their dream worlds and the roles they played in one another’s headspaces. However, that will get very bulky and I don’t want to add even more to an already bully post. I’ll make that a separate post and put it up later, so please bear with me ^^

Wind Breaker Special Stage Event - Tonpuu-machi Halloween Matsuri Afternoon Show Special Reading Drama (part 2)

Part 1 here!

You can check out the rest of my translations here!

Kaji: To the east, right now, it’s all clear.

💙Umemiya 💙: Aight, good work Kaji!

Hiiragi: Thanks for patrolling.

Kaji: Is there anything else I can help with?

💙Umemiya 💙: Nope, thanks! It’s all good for now.

Suo: Thanks for waiting!

Nirei: Kaji-san! Thanks for the hard work!

Kaji: Oh. (t/n: this is more like a nod of acknowledgement)

Nirei: That costume is really cool! Um, is that a… kabocha dracula? (t/n: see the next t/n for explanation)

Kaji: Pumpkin hakushaku. (t/n: Nirei says kabocha (Japanese for pumpkin) dracula (in English), but Kaji says pumpkin (in English) hakushaku (Japanese for count). These two phrases essentially mean the same thing, Kaji is just being pedantic www. It’s the equivalent of me saying “I’m drinking boba” and someone correcting me that it should be “tapioca milk tea”.)

Nirei: Eh?

Kaji: Pumpkin hakushaku. That’s what my class told me.

Nirei: Pumpkin hakushaku?

Suo: It’s probably a jack o’ lantern?

Hiiragi: Nirei looks good too, doesn’t he.

Nirei: Thank you very much! It’s a bit of a tall order to be cool like everyone else…

Suo: If it suits Nirei-kun, I think it’s great.

Nirei: Hehe, I’m actually digging it myself!

💙Umemiya 💙: Speaking of, Suo’s costume really suits him!

Hiiragi: Or rather, isn’t it too creepy?

Suo: Is that so?

Nirei: Suo’s costume is…?

Suo: It’s a jiangshi! Put simply, it’s a Chinese zombie.

Kaji: The yellow talisman is controlling it, isn’t it?

Suo: Yes! But rather than being controlled, I’m better at controlling people. (t/n: at this point, Zakki gives a shrug and looks at the audience. It is very scary that he is channeling he Suo energy so much (･_･;)) Ahaha!

Hiiragi: That smile is super scary.

Suo: It’s just a joke!

💙Umemiya 💙: Yahahaha! How reliable!

Nirei: Eh? By the way, where’s Sakura-san?

Hiiragi: Oh yeah, he’s not back yet.

Suo: Ahaha! If we’re talking about Sakura-kun, he’s over there.

Hiiragi: That guy, what’s he doing while wearing that?

Sakura: Shit… why am I the one wearing this costume… (blushing very hard)

💙Umemiya 💙: Oiiii Sakura!!! If you’ve changed, come over!

Sakura: *Gasps of shock and surprise*

Suo: Sakura-kun! Don’t be shy and just come out!

Sakura: N-n-no way I’m shy or anything! (t/n: yes you are)

Nirei: Sakura-san, are you a werewolf?! It’s so cool!

Hiiragi: You’ve even slicked your hair back, huh?

Sakura: T-t-this?! The guys in the shopping street just did it! Speaking of, what’s with these ears?! And tail too?!

Suo: Wah, it’s so fluffy!

Sakura: Don’t touch me! Don’t pet me! (very blushily) Anyway, you can’t get excited with this costume! (t/n: this might be wrong, but there’s a couple of contractions here and I didn’t manage to catch the full thing x_x)

💙Umemiya 💙: I think it’s plenty to get excited over!

Suo: Hmm, Sakura-kun, I’ll teach you a simple way to hype things up. Sakura-kun, could you do it for me?

Sakura: Eh? Me?

Suo: Don’t worry don’t worry! Sakura-kun just needs to follow my actions!

Sakura: Ahh… If it’s just that… I can do it…

Suo: It’s a deal! Alright, Sakura-kun, I’m going to do the action, and you’ll follow, alright?

Sakura: Ok.

Suo: First, hold your right hand like this! (Zakki holds his right hand open with fingers slightly curved, palm side facing the audience)

Sakura: Like this?

Suo: Yes yes! Next, hold your left hand like this! (mirroring his right hand)

Sakura: Like this…

Suo: Well done! Finally, tilt your head…

Sakura: Tilt my head…

Suo: Alright, and you say, “Gaooooo”! (t/n: this is the onomatopoeia for a cute wolf howling. Emphasis on “cute”)

Sakura: Gao… – AAAAH (much blushy sputtering)

Hiiragi: Isn’t the sound “Aroooooooo” (really REALLY good wolf impression) for a wolf? (t/n: I broke this sentence up on purpose cos Hiiragi just goes back to his usual stoic self after the very impressive howl, the character gap is THE BEST)

💙Umemiya 💙: Hiiragi, you’re really good…!

Nirei: I don’t think that’s the problem…

Sakura: Stop messing around with me! I can’t do that!

Suo: You can do it! Because Sakura-kun, you’re a werewolf now!

Sakura: I didn’t say anything like that!

Suo: Sakura-kun, look around you! Everyone (he looks at the audience here) is looking at you with such anticipation. (t/n: you sly fox www) (edit: I just watched some of the commentary after the drama, Zakki was the culprit who started ad-libbing, and I believe it started from here wwww)

Sakura: Eh… (the audience starts clapping for him a lot at this point) Who is “everyone”?!

Suo: Of course, it’s everyone who has gathered here for the party! (Zakki spreads his arms out to the audience as he says this) (there is a lot of clapping at this blackmail)

💙Umemiya 💙: There’s a lot of ghosts here, you know? (t/n: I think this is where the ad-libbing starts wwww)

Sakura: (Many many grunts of pain and anguish) What is this… If you want me to do it I’ll do it!!! (takes a deep breath) (takes another deep breath) (Yuuma raises his arms wide) G… Gao. (in a very deep and manly voice)

Suo: (Laughs a lot with the audience)

💙Umemiya 💙: Hmmmmm, I’d like you to do it with a little more energy! Sakura!

Sakura: Tch…! C-Can someone give me an example?!

💙Umemiya 💙: Who’s good at this? Hiiragi? (t/n: I think most of this section is ad-libbed LMAO this is what happens when you let a chaos demon like NakaYuu run free)

Hiiragi: Eh, me?

Nirei: Hiiragi-san? Can you really do it?

Hiiragi: I’ll be doing it like the real thing. (He broke character slightly here www)

💙Umemiya 💙: Hiiragi, you’re doing it like the real thing?

Hiiragi: Yup.

💙Umemiya 💙: That’s different.

Hiiragi: Yeah, that’s different.

Choji (from off-stage LMAO): I want Ume-chan.

💙Umemiya 💙: Ume-chan- Ume-chan? You’re referring to me? (t/n: cos Togame’s seiyuu is also Ume-chan (Umehara Yuuichiro) - this was the butt of many jokes during the event wwww) Then I guess, Ume-chan is gonna do it right?

Nirei: Really??

Hiiragi: Oi Umemiya, show us.

💙Umemiya 💙: Alright, I’m gonna do it. (Takes a deep breath) GAOOOOOOUEH (very very manly howl) HHHUUUEEEE. (Stares very intently like he’s going to bite someone’s throat)

Nirei: Ohh!!! As expected!

💙Umemiya 💙: I took notice of the cameras too.

Suo: Alright next, (trying very hard to not laugh) it’s Sakura’s turn right?

Sakura: How did it turn out like this… (also starts laughing; I think he started ad-libbing when asking for an example, and now it has come back to bite him ^_^)

💙Umemiya 💙: Sakura, if you don’t do it quickly, you’re gonna get more embarrassed! (t/n: the second part might be wrong, feel free to correct me!)

Sakura: Yosh I’m gonna do it, you guys better be watching!!! Rnaaghhg, GAOOOO!!! (Very manly and not cute at all, with a lot of echoing) 

💙Umemiya 💙: Ohhh, everyone’s so excited now!

Suo: As expected of Sakura-kun!

Sakura: Hyaaaaaaaaaa (very very high-pitched)

Suo: Alright Sakura-kun, next can you do a “nyan nyan”?

Sakura: DAAAAA!!! I’M NOT GONNA DO THAT!

Nirei: Sakura-san! (t/n: he says “どうどう” here which means “how how”, but I don’t think this is correct in context. If anyone knows what he’s saying, feel free to let me know!)

💙Umemiya 💙: Ahahaha, the first years are so interesting!

Kinktober Day 10: Dry Humping

Rafael Barba x GN! Reader

Summary: Getting a little handsy during a quick massage.

Warnings: Established Relationship, Smut, Desk Sex, Dry Humping, Grinding

Kinktober Masterlist

Minors do not interact!

Massaging Rafael's stressed shoulder, hearing him sigh, still on the phone, pen in hand, struggling to write anything down while your hands worked their magic.

Lifting one hand away, opening his neck to your lips, softly kissing the ADA's neck, smelling his familiar aftershave. Hearing this, he hissed in response before quickly apologizing to the person on the other end of the phone, making up some excuse.

Though he didn't stop you, so you continued. Traveling up quickly, nibbling and kissing the soft tissue of his ear, Rafael purred in reaction, though it was short-lived, having slid your hand slowly down the opening of his buttoned shirt.

With no tie there to stop you, it having been undone and thrown to the side, laying disheveled on his desk. Holding your cold hand against Rafael's warm chest, pulling small gasps from him, tempted to go lower, but you wait, wanting to spare him from full embarrassment.

Finally hanging up the call watching him struggle to put the phone back, hearing as he slams it back in slightly wishing it were you. Quickly pulling your hand out of Rafael's shirt, pushing back his chair, granting you access to sit upon his desk. Relaxed in his office chair, watching all of your actions from the way you stared lustfully while opening your legs inviting him in.

Rising from the chair slowly as if not to spook you, wanting everything the way it is while fitting perfectly in between your legs, planting his hot lips against yours. Both moaning in the kiss, his hands traveling down, pulling your hips closer, allowing you to feel his hard cock poking desperately through his pant's fabric.

Two hands cupped your face as his hips moved against you, Rafael's moans quickly turning into groans. The friction of his cock gives you some pleasure, causing your hips to match his wanting more and more.

Hello, I hope you enjoyed if there is any grammar mistakes or misspellings sorry about that feel free to let me know in the comments, have a great day/afternoon/night!

"It was like I was trying to memorize him — in case this was the last time I would ever see him." — (failed) STEPS TO NOT MISS YOUR EX

There were a lot of ways your sister's wedding could have gone wrong but none of them included you crossing paths with your ex who happened to be the assistant wedding planner.  Alternatively, where you were apparently "over" Lee Heeseung but an (almost) disastrous wedding made you think otherwise.

“Here's the thing about writing Happily Ever Afters: it helps if you believe in them.” — LETTERS TO YOU, ME AND THE BEACH

When a crippling writer’s block and an almost broke bank account forces you to move to an old family home, you didn’t expect to cross paths with your arch nemesis from high school, the ever obnoxious, Park Jay. But maybe the series of events that unfold during the summer could help you with a romantic book or two.

When Jake realizes he doesn't want to be (only) friends with you anymore, you are already moving halfway around the world and he's left alone on the other side of the line. Will it take two oblivious idiots 10 years and more than a hundred missed chances to see the feelings they've been hiding for long?

Momo's "An Idol's Daily Life" Rabbitchat Part 1

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5

Highly Nutritious ☆ Home-cooked meal

Tsumugi: Thank you for your hard work, Momo-san. And thank you for inviting us on “NEXT Re:vale” today!

Tsumugi: It appears that everyone enjoyed that “Make a heart flutter with pre-determined lines!” project.

Momo: Good work, Maneko-chan~! (*´∀`*)/ Recording was really fun, wasn’t it!

Momo: It was worth planning this project with the staff!

Tsumugi: All of the assigned lines on the pieces of paper that got pulled from the box were so funny that Okazaki-san and I ended up laughing a lot!

Momo: Even though lines like “I’m hungry” or “my feet are itchy” are silly, they’d whisper them in a sexy way to make them heart-pounding, so they ended up sounding really surreal and funny www*

Tsumugi: But when Idols like you all say them, they somehow sound cool, so it was rather strange!

Momo: I know right~~~~!!

Momo: My heart skipped a beat too when Yamato hugged me from behind and whispered “Do you want to add Gochujang?” (*/∇ \*)

Tsumugi: Yamato-san was in high spirits as well! lol

Momo: He really gave his all for that “Go~chu~jang” huh www

Momo: His breathing was impressive ww

Tsumugi: Mitsuki-san’s composed “What kind of situation is this!” tsukkomi* response right after was brilliant!

Momo: Right! As expected of IDOLiSH7! Their tsukkomi and boke balance is amazing!

Tsumugi: Thank you! I’m sure Mitsuki-san will be happy to hear this, so I’ll let him know!

Momo:

Tsumugi: Your heart-pounding line was also wonderful, Momo-san! The part you said “Games are only allowed for one hour a day” while kabedoning Tamaki-san!

Momo: Thank you (*´∀`)*。Though Tamaki immediately went “no way” ww

Momo: It was fun and the flow ended up being really interesting, including Sougo who came from the stage seats in a panic to try and convince me to nod and agree with him!

Momo: But it was so exciting we ended up dragging the shoot a bit longer, were you okay with the job after that?

Tsumugi: Yes! Thanks to everyone’s cooperation, we left quickly and managed to finish the shoot at the next location on schedule!

Momo: That’s a relief~! Then, are you done for the day? It’s late, so be careful going home.

Tsumugi: Thank you for your concern! I will be, I think I’ll just get some groceries for dinner and go home.

Momo: Making dinner after work is quite impressive!?

Momo: I hadn’t even thought about making anything (+･`−･´)

Tsumugi: I won’t be making anything too elaborate, but I guess I’ve just made a habit of it..!

Tsumugi: What do you usually do, Momo-san?

Momo: Usually I just get a bento or catering in the dressing room!

Momo: I order delivery on my days off _(:3」∠)_

Tsumugi: There are many kinds nowadays so it’s quite convenient, isn’t it! I also like to order sweets on my days off.

Momo: That’s nice! Like watching the movies and TV dramas you’ve been recording* with the latte and donut you got delivered in hand!

Tsumugi: That's exactly it!

Momo: (≥▽≤)/□☆□/(≥▽≤)

Tsumugi: (≥▽≤)/□☆□/(≥▽≤)

Momo: You went along with it www Thanks ww

Tsumugi:

Tsumugi: However, if you only eat bento you might get nutritional imbalance so please be careful..!

Momo: Maneko-chan, you're so kind (;∀;) Thank you ☆

Momo: Yuki invited me over today, so it’s okay (つω<")

Momo: He said that since I haven’t been eating well lately, he made beef stew with lots of vegetables!

Tsumugi: Oh! So you are at Yuki-san’s house!

Tsumugi: Making a home-cooked meal with so much thought put into it, as expected of Yuki-san!

Momo: He’s the best darling after all(o/▽`)/:*・° °・*

Momo: I thought I could help, but I was told I'm on the bench*, so now I'm just sitting quietly and waiting (´・ω・`)

Tsumugi:

Translator's notes:

1)“www” is one of the japanese equivalents to “lol” but i wanted to differentiate it from tsumugi’s “(笑)” (also “lol”) so I chose to translate hers and leave Momo’s as is, since I use “www” a lot as is myself lol

2)Anyone who’s read idolish7 content by this point probably knows this, but just in case, the “straight man” (tsukkomi) and “funny man” (boke) act is a kind of japanese comedy duo where the boke says something silly or creates a misunderstanding and the tsukkomi corrects them

3) Momo refers to the shows you can record on your tv to watch later, idk if this is a thing much anymore in the west but i do believe it is still in japan.

4)Momo basically said that Yuki told him he's off-duty but the word he uses is apparently used in sports to convey a player that was not chosen to play in the team, momo is a sportsman after all~ www

[chaifootsteps]

Hi. Math anon again. Hey you know the picture with all the other birds in it ? I researched some more. I'm pissed about it. In the pictures you can see a barn owl, pigeon, the peacocks (the white one in the back), and a macaw.

Barn owls sculpts are pretty expensive. Not as much as peacocks for obvious reasons, but on high end still. The one in the picture was in midflight position, which would add even more to its cost. From the sites I searched, they ranged from 500-800. Highest end was 800£, which roughly translates to 1,017 dollars. The closest one that matched up was this one, going for 700 dollars.

[Sauce: https://www.storetaxidermy.com/barn-owl-taxidermy-bird-mount-st7383.html]

Pigeon sculpt looks small, pretty common kind of bird. The grey head and fat neck suggest common pigeon, feral or wood. (the lighting makes it really hard to tell). Now, you'd think that due to how small pigeons are, they'd be cheaper, right ? WRONG. The loose feathers of their bodies make it really hard to make sculpts, meaning there's added cost depending on how good a job the artist does in not making the pigeon look like it's going to fall apart at any minute. Grade quality pigeon sculpts go for 700+, almost as much as the owl. And this one isn't posed !! For these guys, any price is fair game, but according to my sources, it'd be about 300 dollars.

The Taxidermy Macaw. That's a Blue gold macaw, barely posed, with what I *believe* is a pole. The average starts out at 1k+. And, if my sources are right, this could also be the same site sbe originally got the two peacocks from:

[https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/more-furniture-collectibles/collectibles-curiosities/taxidermy/taxidermy-blue-gold-macaw/id-f_9053563/This one is 2.5k, and in my opinion looks pretty close to how its posed in the picture.]

[https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/more-furniture-collectibles/collectibles-curiosities/taxidermy/taxidermy-blue-gold-macaw-mounted-on-branch/id-f_6585183/ There's also one for 1.4k.]

That's an average of 1,950k.

So vivziepop spent roughly 2.5k, with the Macaw weighing in for most of it. Peacocks were 6.4k, so the full collection must be 9,440 dollars. And for shits and giggles, lets add the small crocodilian skull from the back. That's around 100-500, but I'm willing to bet its about 200 due to the fact it's open. So actually 9.6k dollars on a bunch of dead animals. Indie animation is in GREAT hands guys

This, but it's Vivzie and her expensive bird mounts and instead of downloading her shows for free, it's giving her very gentle criticism.

[winterswhite]

Some of my thoughts after rereading the A3! prologue:

Resisting every urge to point out interesting things I'm noticing in A3EN's localization of the prologue with 3.5 more years of Japanese knowledge, this is a reading club, not a translation club

Why is this the only instance of pink text in the game? I think it's really funny how they highlighted important lines in pink here and then proceeded to never do that again

Logistically I know it was only done here as a way of introducing the player to things and it has no real place anywhere else in the story, but it's still funny

Tsuzuru not catching on about the street act is so cute www

I love how you can tell from this very first interaction between Tasuku and Haruto, and then between Haruto and Tsuzuru, that Godza is a kinda messy environment behind the scenes

In retrospect, this was so fucked up of Izumi's mom (I didn't think anything of it back then, but with the knowledge I have now... whew)

hE RECOGNIZES HER

"KYAAAAAAAAA"

BACKHOE

I think it's so interesting that Sakoda was able to get a permit for the backhoe? It's something so small but I think it's fun how we see here that he has the skill needed to safely operate heavy machinery even though he's often seen as someone who isn't good at much of anything, so it really just comes down to his life circumstances more than his actual ability (I mean the kid's just being taught to read at a third grade level, and it's not his fault)

Pictured: The moment it was over for me

This whole scene is such a mess

The way Sakyo implies there have been other plays recently?? If this is Sakuya's first show, how did those work?

Oh Sakuya sounds so awkward it's hard to watch. Shoutout to Sakai for achieving that

Izumi's thoughts as she watches Sakuya perform hit different knowing about her own failures and experiences with theater

This line always, always gets me. Hard work alone doesn't amount to crap in this world. It never did for him. His mother worked so hard and yet they were poor, he worked hard and could never achieve his own goals... hard work never earned him anything. If it did, maybe he could've stood on this stage, too. Maybe Mankai wouldn't have reached this point. Maybe we wouldn't be here.

Honestly, everything here shows how much Sakyo loves Mankai and how hurt he is too

This conversation between Sakyo and Matsukawa is so much, they both care so much about the theater but Matsukawa is so desperately latching onto it while Sakyo has resigned himself to its fate, he's all but given up (just like he has on himself lol <- in pain)

Oh boy Yukio mention (the way he haunts the narrative is so much)

It's funny that Sakyo takes that jab at Matsukawa for wanting to lean on Yukio and count on him to single-handedly save Mankai, considering what he just said about hard work. If Yukio can't be relied on as the "savior" of Mankai (all the actors need to come back and everything needs to be the way it was before) and hard work alone won't do it either... he really has lost hope

Sakyo you fucking tsundere

You're the boss, boss!

Something something Izumi about to lose the last connection she has to her father even if it's not one she ever really had much of a part in before

Oh Izumi you're so bad at this

Sakyo is Not taking this (meanwhile, Matsukawa...) I do appreciate how he still gave her a chance though, however small it was

Honestly I feel bad for Matsukawa here, knowing how he's been trying so desperately just to keep the troupe afloat for eight years even though it clearly hasn't been going well

Obviously there was no way to fit this into the English localization, but I love how Sakuya introduces himself and then tells Izumi how to spell his name in kanji because of the many different ways it can be written (花の咲くの咲也です！)

I also really appreciate Izumi as a character and how real she feels right from the very beginning, from her interest in theater to her hammy acting to her quick thinking skills

Matsukawa you've been at this for years... (also I'm curious about Izumi's old troupe)

I didn't care much for Sakuya when I first read this story, but knowing all that I do about him now, this is all so endearing... he's so sweet in how he's comforting Izumi and checking in on her (and his whole thing about not wanting to lose the troupe hurts)

"Might as well fail like men!" thank you for the encouragement Matsukawa

I honestly think there's so much to be said about Masumi's character right from the beginning, like with him repeatedly asking how his acting was

Tsuzuru the biggest "struggling uni student" mood

Oh Masumi's line about just taking anyone hits so different in Japanese... Maybe I'm just not as good at picking up on certain types of slang and innuendo, but his wording is so much more... questionable in Japanese, that double meaning cannot be ignored.

Oh god I'm thinking about the A3 timeline again. I will once again try to push it back into the furthest depths of my mind because there clearly is no such thing as "time" in this universe and trying to figure it out has given me headaches before.

Mitsuki: I’ve arrived at the supermarket 👍 We just need butter, right?

Sogo: Thank you for your hard work, Mitsuki-san. I’m sorry to bother you with the shopping!

Mitsuki: Not at all, pancakes are the best when paired with butter, after all! It’s pretty important! I’m glad I noticed we were out of butter before making pancakes!

Mitsuki: I’ve promised to make pancakes with Iori and Riku tomorrow afternoon 😆

Sogo: You all mentioned that you want pancakes alongside the canned fruit that manager gave, right?

Mitsuki:

Mitsuki: Butter is somewhat expensive, but it plays an important role… After all, you’d usually cook the egg for an omurice with butter, right?

Sogo: I guess so… Riku-kun used to emphasize how great the aroma of butter on a frying pan was…

Mitsuki: I get it, that aroma truly is the best 😆 Do you need me to buy anything else?

Sogo: There wasn’t a shopping list written on the whiteboard that’s stuck to the fridge, let me recall if there’s anything else we needed to get.

Mitsuki: Ah

Mitsuki: Band-aids!!

Sogo: Band-aids!!

Sogo: We ran out of band-aids yesterday.

Mitsuki: People have been asking me to put on band-aids for them recently–! 🤔

Sogo: That’s because you always cast a spell before putting on the band-aids, it’s all the rage in the dorm nowadays…!

Mitsuki: All I say is “Pain, pain, go away” w

Mitsuki: Yesterday Nagi asked me to put a band-aid on the part of his finger where his skin was peeling off w

Sogo: You also used your spell on Tamaki-kun too, when he scrapped his knee while playing football during recess.

Mitsuki: The White Day project truly left a huge impression on everyone huh w

Sogo: Actually, did you use to do the same for Iori-kun when he was little?

Mitsuki: Oh, yeah I did! How nostalgic. I used to put band-aids covered with little bear patterns on for him!

Sogo: How wonderful. As soon as Mitsuki-san casts a spell, everyone will feel energized and healed in an instant!

Mitsuki: For real? 😳✨

Mitsuki: How about I cast you a spell as well, Sogo?

Sogo: Really!?

Sogo: Ah, but I would need to be wounded first.

Mitsuki: That’s true, you rarely make careless mistakes after all 😆

Sogo: Careless mistakes…

Sogo: I made a careless mistake a while ago, actually!!

Mitsuki: What’s up with this new method of reporting information www 

Mitsuki: What careless mistake did you make!?

Sogo: I went to a kebab shop that Touma recommended to me the other day. I wanted Banri-san to try some as well, so I bought some.

Sogo: I chose the hot sauce for my serving of kebabs and the regular sauce for Banri-san.

Sogo: When I brought it to Banri-san at the agency, he was ecstatic…

Mitsuki: *Gulp*...

Sogo: But as I was about to dig in back at the dorm, I realized that the regular sauce was with me instead…

Mitsuki: A-ah…

Sogo: I thought that was it for me, so I instantly phoned Banri-san, and…

Mitsuki: A-and what happened…?

Sogo: All I heard from the other end was “I’m foffaly fime”

Mitsuki: That’s how someone would talk if their lips were swollen—!!! wwww

Sogo: I brought an apology gift and apologized to Banri-san the next day, and he kindly told me, “I see that Sogo-kun also makes careless mistakes sometimes. But the kebab was really tasty, thank you”...

Mitsuki: How kind of him 😭😭

Sogo: He truly is 😭😭😭

Mitsuki: It looks like you’ll have to put a band-aid and cast a strong spell on Banri-san’s heart… 🙏

Mitsuki: But honestly, don’t we usually hurt ourselves on accident while cooking or practicing? Please don’t hesitate to look for me when things like those happen!

Mitsuki: It’s not just me who would cast a spell for you, the others would do the same too!

Sogo: Thank you…! I’ll be doing preparations for you to put a band-aid on for me!

Mitsuki: What kind of preparations are you even trying to do ww

Mitsuki: Ah

Sogo: What’s wrong?

Mitsuki: Sogo, listen to this.

Mitsuki: I just messed up big time.

Sogo: Huh…? Mitsuki: I bought the band-aids but forgot about the butter!!!

Mitsuki:

Sogo:

Sogo: So this is the rare occurrence of a careless mistake from Mitsuki-san…!

Mitsuki: I’m flattered that you’d call it a rare occurrence 😂 ww

Mitsuki: I had so much fun chatting with you to the point where I got distracted while shopping! I’ll head back right after I take another trip to the supermarket!

Sogo: I’m so sorry, please be careful!

Mitsuki: You better put a band-aid and cast a spell on my heart once I get back w

Sogo: O-okay.

Sogo: Nagi-kun just came home as well, the both of us will take care of you!

Mitsuki: You both are putting in way too much effort ww

Mitsuki:

Translation + Notes

Love☆One - Episode 1

The Spy Saw It! ~The Tension Has Exploded☆~

~Scene Begins in Jail Cell~

Love☆One: “Ahh~ …are you quietly making up your mind? It’s become a hassle.”

Prisoner: “…..”

Love☆One: “I mean, can you hear me properly? If you don’t want those ears, why don’t I shoot them~?”

Love☆One: “I’m not very dexterous, so I might blow your whole head off… ahahaha!”

Love☆One: “So, bye bye~☆”

Prisoner: “…..”

Love☆One: “Hmm~? Afu! Hey, I'm jammed up☆ You were lucky… right?”

*PUNCH*

Prisoner: “…ugh!”

Love☆One: “......Ah, that’s bad. I was so annoyed that I hit him with all of my strength. Hey, are you still alive?”

Love☆One: “Ahh, he passed out. …You there, please do the rest~ Thank you☆

Soldier: “Yes! I got it!”

~Scene Changes to Outside World Empire~

Love☆One: “Fu! I’m kinda tired. Is it possible that I’m bad at interrogation?”

Love☆One: “My loot is only this small bottle of liquor~ Well, what’s inside~?”

Love☆One: “Hmm? This scent is… Scotch!”

Love☆One: “Nice~! Even though you’re a rat, you’ve got some good stuff!”

Love☆One: “Ah, but drinking alcohol makes my nose bleed more easily… Well, Like-chan isn’t here right now! OKOK~!”

Love☆One: “Thanks for the drink~☆”

*SWALLOW*

Love☆One: “...Puha! Ahh…! Oh…! This is it, this is it! Kiku(1) wow~!”

Love☆One: “Hm… my blood is starting to pump! I can shoot without jamming now.”

Love☆One: “Well then, I’m off to the battlefield! Yeah! Shoot, shoot, shoot! Shoot, fuu~!”

~Episode 1 Concluded~

NOTE 1: I have no idea what “kiku” is. If anyone can explain it to me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Love☆One - Episode 2

The Spy Saw It! ~The Gentle Rat Killer~

~Scene Begins in Inside World Empire ~

Love☆One: “...Hey! Mr. Mayor, you’ve come a long way~ Good morning~☆”

Love☆One: “Sorry for calling you out of the blue. It’s a long way from here, so it must have been hard to come, right?”

Mayor: “N-No, this is nothing… I’ll be here whenever you call me…”

Love☆One: “Yea, yea, you’re really serious and dependable, aren’t you?”

*Music Pauses*(2)

Love☆One: “So, on to the main topic. …What are you doing sneaking around with the resistance rats?”

Mayor: “Eh… Huh?! You-you’ve misunderstood! I would never betray the Emperor of the World…!”

Love☆One: “Okay okay, stop. I don’t want to hear any lame excuses.”

Love☆One: “I already knew what you were doing.”

Love☆One: “Yep, food aid, base weaknesses, leaked information on planned operations… all it is out! ”

Love☆One: “Here’s the proof too. You’re a serious guy, but you’re not very thorough, are you?”

Mayor: “Ahh..! I’m-I’m so sorry! But I was just threatened by them…!”

Love☆One: “Yeah, that’s a lie too. Anyway, your family is going to be publicly executed this time.”

Mayor: “Eh… that’s a lie...!”

Love☆One: “Aha, too bad. I’m honest~ Where would you like them to be executed? I'll make sure you have a special seat so you can get a good view.”

Mayor: “P-Please stop! My family, my only family—ugh!”

*KICK*(3)

Love☆One: “Huh? Aren't you glad that I'm the one who noticed you? ”

Love☆One: “If it had been Ein-chin, he would have destroyed the whole town and killed everyone☆ Ahahaha!”

~Episode 2 Concluded~

NOTE 2: No matter how many times I went over this part, it a horrifiying moment amplified by the music and the CV and it makes me tense every time and aughghgh—

NOTE 3: This action isn't a part of the original raw. I added it to express the cruelty of the moment. I feel so bad for the guy :( I love how Showtaro makes this episode so evil and really shows how fucked up the World Empire and the Modern Guns are. This isn't even the worst of it!

Love☆One - Episode 3

The Spy Saw It! ~Good Brothers!?~

~Scene Begins in Outside World Empire ~

Love☆One: “Hmm…? Afu! I can't seem to get the shell casing off~ Like-tan’s gone to report to that guy… Oh!”

Eins: “Hmm…? Love☆One?”

Love☆One: “Oh! Ein-chin! Good job on your mission☆”

Eins: “Hey man. What are you doing here?”

Love☆One: “Well, the shell casing got stuck in the chamber and I can't get it out at all! I'm jamming~ Fu!”

Eins: “Let me borrow it... Ah, it’s this guy. Which one...”

Eins: “...Hmph! Here, how about this?”

Love☆One: “Foo~! Ein-chin is really cool! Thank you!☆”

Eins: “Don't worry about this. More importantly, you're leaking blood from your gas mask. Are you okay?”

Eins: “If you're hurt, go to Master as soon as possible and get yourself fixed up.”

Love☆One: “Blood? Aah~ it's just a nosebleed, don't worry☆ I just splashed some when I got excited!”

Love☆One: “Like-tan will wipe it off soon!”

Love☆One: “I often get nosebleeds, so Like-tan carries around tissues for me! Fufu! My brother is so kind!”

3, 5, 15

(Ask meme here!)

3. Do you write fics from start or finish, or jump around?

LINEAR TIME IS FAKE and so is linear writing.  VERY few of my fics were written even vaguely linearly--I think two points of a triangle was probably the most linearly written, which is hilarious because it’s reverse chronology.  (string of beads to me was also mooooostly linearly written, iirc?)  Otherwise, I hop around wildly--not just between scenes but, like, I’ll write part of a scene, leave some impenetrable note for myself like, “[REACT, there’s more here]” and then jump to a completely different scene.  Also I write pieces of parallelism together.  (I have definitely talked about that before www.)

Just for fun, the first bit I wrote of all my multi-chapter fics:

linear time is fake: the bit right at the end of the first scene where Polnareff asks about the time stop and Jotaro dissociates so hard that time stops working for him

Buddhism fic: the frickin’ Four Noble Truths joke.  I know what I’m about

disjoint: this is a weird one, because the first bit of this I wrote was actually originally for a flower blooming and then got ported over, but it’s the bit right when Giorno resurrects Bruno about the difference between living and surviving.  the first bit I wrote for the fic properly was the bit where Abbacchio grabs Bruno’s arm as he’s getting off the boat and Bruno can’t feel it and is like, “hm, maybe I should be panicking, but this doesn’t really feel any different than normal.”

a flower blooming: Giorno wondering if he could build a body that his stepfather had never touched... again, I know what I’m about.

Moral of the story: first thing I write for the fic is the Concept (traumatic) and/or the best joke in the whole thing.

5. What is the perfect environment for you to write in?

God, I wish I knew.  Occasionally I am seized by The Passion and then I write...very slowly...for a period of time...until it’s done.

But in general:

gotta have music going. people who write in silence are incomprehensibly powerful and/or don’t have PTSD-induced hypervigilance

weirdly it’s helpful if I’m writing something else for work at the same time (I have a habit of finishing diss chapters/conference papers and fics back-to-back)

cannot be writing a million words of student feedback and/or lectures at the same time

when I was in college I wrote most of my fiction late at night but that is 100% not true anymore; I think I do much more writing (not just fic) in the afternoon/early evening now

I can/do sometimes write chunks of fic on my phone in a Google Doc, but once it gets close to completion/once I have revision notes, it has to be all on my computer

Otherwise, it’s mostly a lot of waiting around for my brain to get into gear.  Sometimes it gets into gear in the weirdest places, like the Back Bay Commuter Rail Station (I wrote a shocking amount of blue ribbon there).

15. A Hollywood producer tells you that they want to film just one of your fics. Which fic would you want it to be?

Listen to me. Look into my eyes.  Shrine AU.  I want them to film Shrine AU.  Not because it’s my favorite fic, not because it’s the fic that would translate best to film, but because it’s content that’s so inexplicable that Hollywood would either be irrevocably changed by proximity or utterly destroyed.  It would be a critical failure at the box office.  I’d watch it in theatres multiple times.

秘めた想い (Himeta Omoi) / Hidden Feelings [Kanji/Romaji Lyrics + ENG Translation]

Hello! I’d like to preface this by saying that I am by no means proficient in Japanese; I’ve only taken beginner’s Japanese at my uni and used a lot of help from Japanese dictionaries and Google Translate to get through this LOL but I’ve adored this song ever since episode 17 aired and was hype when the mini-album came out with the full version. I thought it was simple enough for my skills, so I decided to try translating it ( ´ ▽ ` )

That said, if you see any errors, please feel free to correct me! And if you’d like to use this translation for anything, just credit me (though letting me know would be nice too!). I just wanted to share this because I wasn’t really sure what to do with it lmao

You can listen to the song here!

(translation + lyrics under cut)

Singer: Hayami Umika/Lupin Yellow (Kudo Haruka) Lyrics: Fujibayashi Seiko Composition: Takagi Hiroshi

Hidden Feelings

When the yellow flowers bloom, I'll meet with you Each time you smile¹ Spring's sunlight filters throughout my heart²

By the time the blue flowers bloom, We'll have exchanged words Shivering out in the cold rain, Don't fall apart³ Inside my chest is a secret That continues blooming even now

I'll give you red flowers Within a bouquet -- A letter with no words --⁴ Delivered right to your window

When the yellow flowers bloom, I'll go⁵ And make my final wish⁶ Which will become flower petals That quietly scatter across the wind And fall upon your shoulder

¹ This line is 微笑む 度に 春の but I wasn’t sure if “の” was meant to make the sentence more feminine, invoke a question, or if it was connected to the next line. In the end, I went with the last one based on how the lyrics are sung

² 木漏れ日 (komorebi) means “sunlight filtering through the trees.” It’s kinda awkward trying to make a metaphor out of this, so I adjusted as necessary

³ I wasn’t sure whose perspective this and the previous line’s is from, so I left it vague haha

⁴ I wasn’t sure how this line connected with the previous one, so I used em dashes lol

⁵ This line is 私は 行くの but much like “春の”, I wasn’t sure what role “の” played here. This time around, I felt like it was to make the sentence more feminine

⁶ Then again, I wasn’t quite sure how to connect this line to the previous so I made it one sentence. That said, I’m also not sure whose perspective this particular line is from. Considering “貴方の肩” (your shoulder), I’m assuming it’s the singer’s

Himeta Omoi

kiiroi hana saku koro ni anata to deai hohoemu tabi ni haru no komorebi kokoro ni

aoi hana ga saku goro ni kawashita kotoba tsumetai ame ni furue koborenu you ni mune no naka de hisoka ni ima mo sakaseteiru

akai hana wo hanataba ni anata ni okuru moji mo tsuzuranu tegami madobe ni todoketta 

kiiroi hana saku koro ni watashi wa yuku no saigo ni negai kanae shizuka ni chirinu hanabiratonari kaze ni anata no kata ni otsu

秘めた想い

(Lyrics taken from here. Sorry if there’s any mistakes, the site doesn’t allow copy and pasting)

黄色い花 咲く頃に 貴方と出会い 微笑む 度に 春の 木漏れ日 心に

青い花が 咲く頃に 交わした 言葉 冷たい雨に震え 零れぬように 胸の中で 密かに 今も咲かせている 

赤い花を 花束に 貴方に 贈る 文字も 綴らぬ手紙 窓辺に 届けた  

黄色い花 咲く頃に 私は 行くの 最後に願いかなえ 静かに 散りぬ 花びらとなり風に 貴方の肩に落つ
