my attempt at sorting through the kakashi timeline. (i now realize my other post had a small mistake)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5: enters the academy along with everyone else. matriculation is more like the official enrollment into attending an academy/university rather than yearly orientation. seems we can assume this was the point that the students were first accepted into the academy
Tumblr media
later at 5: graduates the academy and becomes known as a prodigy
Tumblr media
6: becomes a chunin all while the rest of his generation are still in the academy
Tumblr media
7/8: sakumo dies
9: is put on team minato with genin his age. meets obito and rin (also 9) but theyve just freshly graduated the academy. im not actually sure if 9 is the graduation age cause i dont have confirmation panels but thats what ive heard. its kinda irrelevant anyways i guess as long as its before the chunin exams.
Tumblr media
…11/12..? (look to obitos age below for a more accurate estimate): takes chunin exams with team 7. now THIS is where the issue is. that stupid fucking panel of him holding up his chunin paper that shows after he beats guy. i originally mistook this for a flashback to him becoming chunin before realizing what the order of the panels was suggesting so thats the mistake. there are a couple ways to fix this
1. pretend it was a reinstation for whatever reason.
ideas:
- because he was made chunin super young and the rank needed a renewal due to his young age at the time
- he didnt actually take the exams at 6 since he didnt have an official team and was given the rank based on skill so it was kinda unofficial and this was his official exam
- he needed to get reinstated because he had a new team and the exams were supposed to in part measure the teams compatibility
- something else thats better thought out than my ideas
2. pretend that panel doesnt exist 👌
3. some other excuse
basically directly addressing this panel instead of deaging him fucks less with the timeline and portrayals and should fix the inconsistency as well. i mostly see people headcanon the age difference as 2-5 years but if were going with this, the age difference should be roughly 5-7 years- obito was 12/13 when he got crushed and had just become a chunin because in that same scene, rin whispers to him about meeting up and that meet up is to discuss kakashis present for becoming jonin. they give kakashi his gifts on the way to the bridge. chunin exams are held biannually during fall and spring. he got whooped by guy in the 1 on 1s and promptly failed in what we can assume was fall.
Tumblr media
hes shown training during winter and retakes the exam in the spring so less than a year passes in between obito failing and becoming chunin (those are flower buds btw. i thought they were leaves but theyre not). if obito was 12/13 when he got smooshed, he was 11/12 at absolute minimum when he failed and kakashi became chunin (6)
Tumblr media
and that age difference of 5-7years makes no sense because hes taller than rin and the same height and age appearance wise as the rest of his grade. if that really was their age difference, kakashi would look a LOT younger during orientation. as crazy as his chunin at age 6 feat is, its very difficult for me to suspend my belief and imagine him enrolling in the academy at 0 to -2 years old. it would also make rin pretty creepy and as confrontational as obito is, i feel like he would not beg to be rivals with someone 5-7 years younger than him. that would hurt his pride too much
12/13: becomes jonin when obito becomes chunin. kannabi bridge mission. chaos ensues
i only really looked into the info from chapter 599 and 240 and whatever else i linked so if there are any other relevant timeline drops that totally breaks my case then ive totally missed them so lmk

GCSE game plan
so... who else is freaking out??
yeah. me too. but i'm here to tell you, DON'T!!! the more you revise effectively, the less you have to worry about. think of it like an inverse proportion gradient. so we have to make sure we're revising. but more than that, making sure we revise well. so here's all my tips, subject by subject, for getting yourself ready for these exams:
maths:
past papers. just do them. set a timer, go through it, then either mark it yourself, ask your teacher, or give the mark scheme to one of your parents and ask them to mark it.
go through the questions you got wrong, and practise questions in that topic - cgp books are useful for this!
english lit:
practise timed essays.
if you dont have the energy for that, plan essays. bullet point what you would write about, then take it to your teacher and ask what you should add
don't go overboard memorising quotes
actually read the texts. please.
also read the poems, those are easy to remember
english lang:
admittedly, i don't have a method for this since i get pretty consistently good grades in mocks. but honestly? i've been writing fanfic since i was 12 almost every day, so consistent writing practise really helps (but with a matter of weeks to go, thats not great advice)
read books. i promise it helps
there's online videos of two examiners going through the questions and detailing what you need to say per question in order to get optimum marks, but i can't remember where i found it :(
sciences: (also works for pe theory)
go through the specification
colour code the topics into what you're good at (green), what you're almost there on (yellow), what you're pretty bad at (orange) and what you have no clue about (red)
make a quizlet of all the stuff you put red/orange/yellow and use the flashcards regularly
past papers are a good way to practise exam technique
for the six markers asking about methods, they want you to describe dependent/independent/controlled variables and what you are going to measure
languages:
find quizlets of the vocab and do them as much as possible
for the speaking, practise it aloud with anyone. can be a friend, a pet, a soft toy
colour code the speaking questions into how well you can answer them and put the questions into a quizlet. go over the questions accordingly
in the speaking EXAM, i am begging you, say something funny. say something that will make you smile. the examiner/teacher doing your exam will hopefully be nice to you and smile/laugh back.
also, you get points for treating it like a real conversation, not just a set of pre-memorised questions - i never learned the answers for my mock speaking exam, and i got 2 marks off a 9
of course, practise papers
don't forget to learn your grammar!!!!
humanities: (geography specifically since that's the one i'm doing)
practise questions. constantly. eat them for breakfast.
i was doing a set of practise questions every week for a month and a half before moving onto past papers
learn how landforms are formed
CASE STUDIES!!! LEARN THEM!!!! search on quizlet for them, or make your own (recommend this) with statistics you know you'll remember well
and remember... it is much better to discover everything you don't know now, while you're revising, than in the exam
YOU'VE GOT THIS GUYS!!!! <33333333333

whatevr ill post my stupid baby bill poem nonsense on this app
i hold my son close to me. we just went to our first eye doctors appointment. his big round eye is closed as he sleeps. he clings to me as he naps in my arms. i look at the medication they gave me. the bottle doesnt even seem to have proper dosage. i sigh. ever since my son has started his diagnosis journey, i've worried for him. all the doctors flock around him when he starts looking up nobody has ever seen what he calls up, it perplexes the specialists, the teachers at school, his peers. and yet, i feel like there has to be someone who has there has to be more like him, correct? today's my baby billy's first day of second grade hes grown so big from when he was in his baseball sneakers. i measure him from angle to angle, hes grown somewhat taller. he beams. i walk him to school, he tells me about the stars once again. how they glitter and glow. i tell him that even if i can't see what hes talking about, i see him, and always will. he smiles with his eye i tell him he'll have his silly straws clean when he gets home billy has started telling me he can't see. i check his medication. they've upped his dose from 2 sips to 3. i yelled at the doctor for not even giving me a proper dose for him. they told me not to worry, that they know best. i dont believe them. i have stopped giving bill his "eye medication" it turns out that it wasnt helping him at all, the doctor who gave it to us was outed as a fraud he looks at me with that round eye and wonders why ive stopped i tell him he'll be safe this is billy and i's first appointment at a psychologist. billy looks at me with worry in his big round eye. he's never had to have an appointment where he has to talk about himself. i tell him he'll be safe and that i'll hold his hand through the whole thing. they were perplexed to say the least, but they were helpful they told us to come back for an assessment they said they might have the answer the psychologists have a diagnosis its a thing they dont know a lot about, hes the first one to be officially diagnosed the doctors want to name it after him but i insist they don't. i don't need my boy to be the center of his condition he looks at me in the car with fear. i tell him that everyone is still learning, even doctors. he smiles with his eye again . i make him a sandwich with the crust cut off when we come back, he beams years later, the diagnosis has been named silly straw syndrome its considered a neurological conditon that effects the way someone sees the world. people are still scared of my son when he looks up at the stars but we're getting somewhere, the world of shapes is making progress. bill brought home a friend im overjoyed, hes never had a friend over and for once, i see a kid other than my own look up at the stars with him! and i finally see that my son is understood! i tear up, my beautiful boy is finally understood by his peers. i dont have to worry. im at peace. my son will be ok in the world, there IS people like him! i cry, i sob. my son is finally finding a place. hes finally ok.

listen here ok
idk if your sixth grade science teacher taught you this but she really should have
mine did and I'll never forget it but basically here's how to manufacture alcoholic beverages on a small scale
dont do this if ur a minor btw thats illegal and stuff
so first ur gonna need some shit ok
yeast. activedry or even instant will do. Big Yeast will try to tell you that you need special wine yeast but that's just a scheme to get you to buy more yeast.
water. if u dont have this u can prolly use Pepsi or smth but i havent tried it
strawberry hard candies. you can use any sugar source but i like to use these because they make what is undoubtedly the strongest shit ive ever had
a balloon. or a condom. or, if you're using a wide lipped container, a latex glove. youll see why ok
a container. preferably a cleaned out wine bottle but we're not gonna be picky here ok
hot glue and a gun. optional but preferable
a cork. you know why.
setp one
so first u take your grandma candies and dissolve them in water. you dont have to do it all the way but they won't fit through the lip of the bottle otherwise
setp two
take your wine bottle and get those candies and the water you dissolved them in into the bottle. then fill the bottle up to where it starts to taper in with warer.
sstep thre
pour in about a tablespoon of yeast. more if you're making a bigger batch. i usually eyeball it cuz im just good like that but ur gonna wanna measure it out ok
stepe for
cover the lip of the bottle with the palm of your hand so that a suction forms and shake the bottle. if it spills wine will ferment in ur carpet and then ur totally fucked so be careful with this step
spet five
pull a condom or balloon or something elastic that can stretch a lot over the lip of the bottle. theres a good reason ur not sealing it yet ok just trust
step six
find somewhere that people aren't going to go that will also not experience a lot of rainfall, because this shits gonna reek of alcohol in literal hours. i have a wine cellar in the swamp but ur gonna have to be creative . leave it there for about 2-3-4 weeks. dont open it. im so serious rn
sep 7
once uve WAITED. WAITED. because if you don't it will LITERALLY EXPLODEyou can open it. immediately after opening you have to cork it. just set the cork on the lip and shove it in ok. if it doesn't fit make it. im deadass rn istg. AND once you do that. hot glue over the cork and lip to form a seal. you can even put foil over it but we want this shit airlocked ok
and there u have it. a sealed bottle of wine. homemade. ez. you dont need an airlock even if they tell you do. its legit so easy

i dont know what my former measurements were because i hated thinking about it so much. i was constantly uncomfortable and stressed and ashamed and id avoid even acknowledging it when possible. on most days. though there were times when i didnt hate it and did measure that was like in grade 9 and i think that was smaller actually amd whyd i even remember that sort of thing from back then?
however a few months ago when everyone was measuring their tits we did check... maybe a recheck is due...

talked to a friend today about our motivation. i tried to lift him up, i love doing that. we talked about how im kinda opposite his adhd, he even said he thinks i have adhd which was funny. i used an example for him that i used hyperfixating as small motivations, burst of energy, but my big one, the one that stays consistent, is if i get good grades, i can go to college in chicago, and see the lights every night, and see marina city everyday. its a nice thought really. its a really soothing thought. ive been sad every night and day for a month or so now. ive always been sad, but it runs thick through me these days. im afraid if i keep acting this way, ill end up in a hospital, which would without a doubt ruin my course to where i want to be. my vision of my future clicks to the same few without delay. chicago, hospital, dead. i feel my grip on the one i need loosening. its all really fucking scary. i feel like i have no control over my life or my emotions. and what makes it worse is no one seems to care. when i really freak out, to the point of asking for help (which only ever ends up being a 30 minute conversation where i laugh about my situation) i get a “we care about you” thats only present then. i cant help but get worried when its brushed off so much. how its joked about. it really hurts to be joked about when the only way you can feel about the situation is guilty. i dont want to be a joke anymore, but since im not taking desperate measures in desperate times, its not that serious. its serious to me. its the only thing on my mind all the time. its a disaster really. im trying to juggle the rest of my life with this, and its getting difficult. its always been difficult. im afraid my state is getting in the way of things. its always been manageable, a side problem. i get closer to someone and im afraid im scaring them away with this. im afraid im scaring away the people i was always close to. we dont walk anymore, any of us. i cant help but feel like i ruined it all. i mean theres no doubt. i just want to cry. i just want to go back to the summer of freshman year. i was pretty sick for the second half, but i still really loved it. i don’t know who to go to anymore. ive been trying to go to the councilors more, which i always swore itd never get to. it’s embarrassing having to ask the lady at the front desk to talk to someone in tears. its even more embarrassing when she says they dont have room for me. i want to enjoy thoroughly again. i miss looking into the sun and seeing hope, almost everyday when i would walk after school. i hate this cave ive dug myself into. i dont want to scare people away anymore. i want to be capable of being loved. that doesnt matter, does it.

So uh. How does one go about getting tested for Williams syndrome if they weren't tested for it as a baby because like...I have a lot of features (primarily neurological, intellectual, and behavioral, the rest of me aside from fat pockets in my spine and neck is fairly healthy aside from "obesity" but like...I'm fairly healthy) that are indicative of williams syndrome. I read about Williams syndrome in like 7th grade in a book about neurodevelopmental disabilities and music, and one of them was on Williams syndrome, and the way the author described the patients i fit every characteristic BUT the distinct facial features which kinda leads me to assume (medical special interest + slight hypochondriasis from it) that I have some sort of mosaic form of Williams, which isn't the first time I believed I had a disorder I feel like I need to test for but my mom would dismiss bc I'm being a hypochondriac (the other major one is nontypical congenital adrenal hypoplasia, which I have signs of to various degrees, such as obesity, early puberty, a rather blocky, apple shaped body type more typical of...not cis men but rather trans men on t and also a lot of trans women starting on estrogen, and I've had very little, thinning, often greasy hair since puberty, when before it was thick and wavy; think a kind of harry dubois kinda hairstyle with more hair on the scalp thankfully). Idk I just dont know if I should get tested for either two of these things (and I know if I do have ncah it would explain why my periods are so long, heavy, painful and disabling to the point I can't move and I have to take birth control) or if I should just let it go for now since I don't have any severe symptoms such as salt wasting (ncah) or heart disease (Williams syndrome) yet
there's no surefire way of getting dx'd with anything. my first pcp i got after leaving home acted like i was just drawing connections that weren't there when it came to my POTS and generalized joint hypermobility. i didn't rly continue my appointments with her after i was lucky enough that she referred me for a TTT after i sent her a highlighted list of my symptoms and asked for it directly.
i'm also someone who wonders abt smth like NCAH but i doubt i'd ever get evaluated for that and even then. something i said recently said a lot of people display little to no symptoms of it. i have relatively thick body hair, the vaguest hints of hirsutism, a voice that sounds almost pubescent (best i can describe it lol), and enough "masculine" features that people have gotten confused about my gender/called me a man/called me slurs over it on a routine basis since at least 3rd grade (and it had continued into college.) the last time my testosterone levels were measured they were within "normal" ranges for someone who was CAFAB though. that's not nearly as much reasoning as you might have but your best bet there is an endocrinologist. salt-wasting is a risk with CAH rather than NCAH because NCAH centers around reduced cortisol production and increased androgen production and doesn't impact aldosterone as much i think. treatment for NCAH usually centers around androgen levels and period regulation (as you said) in cases where people do have symptoms/need some kind of treatment. could bring up to your doc that you have concerns around hormones and ask for a referral to an endo or something but aside from that, 🤷🏻‍♀️
WS seems like something that usually wouldn't be missed in childhood so long as your mother's pregnancy and your growth and development were routinely (and responsibly) monitored by doctors (bc we know how doctors can be, and also parents). idk anything about WS though or any kind of genetic disorders like that. i would guess anything with a clear genetic marker like that is most accurately dx'd by a geneticist or through genetic testing, which is expensive/highly inaccessible, although apparently WS is usually identified at a young age through its cardiac symptoms. i'm def the wrong person to ask about that.

Stop waiting and start being.
I started fully living my life when I stopped waiting. Stopped waiting for my parents to teach me how to drive, stopped waiting to graduate before I travel, stopped waiting for other people to go on that trip, stopped waiting on that glow up before I start liking myself. You are who you are at this moment in time and this will never happen again.
2. Your people are your people.
You can't make someone who doesn't want to stay, stay. And there's nothing you can do to push away the people that wants to stay with you. Be quirky, be clingy, send that double text, be straightforward, be cringe, talk A LOT, dont talk, be lowkey, dont be too vulnerable, be super vulnerable. It does not matter. Whoever's meant to stay will and whoever's meant to leave will.
3. Give as much chances as you can.
People will often tell you to stop giving people chances. They don't deserve it, they're making you look stupid, it's not worth it anymore. But if that's not how you feel, don't do it. Give people as much chances as you can, not because of them, but because of yourself. If you give up on someone or something that you really want to work out, you will regret it. Drain yourself out of those thoughts of possible regrets until you, yourself want to give up; only then will you be able to do so without feeling regretful.
4. Spend time with yourself.
If you genuinely enjoy doing things by yourself, you will rarely feel lonely. This also lets you pick and choose quality people.
5. Just write it down.
It doesn't matter if it makes sense, if your grammar is all over the place, if you don't think people will resonate with you, or if it's good. Just write it down.
6. Take more pictures.
Not taking pictures doesn't make you cool. It's okay to be sentimental, it's okay to take pictures of the most mundane things. Pictures are the only things you can hold on to for as long as you want.
7. Those first thoughts are okay.
You see a baby and you think it looks fucking ugly, then you feel bad so you rationalize it and tell yourself that it's just not your type of cute? That first thought is okay, we all have it. It's a matter of correcting those thoughts that matters.
8. You are not going on the same path as everyone else. No one is.
Now I know it's hard not to feel like you've been left behind, that you've failed, and that everyone else is better than you. Chances are people either don't care or are very supportive of what you decide to do in life. We all have different measures of success.
9. Everyone is too busy living their own lives and fighting their own battles.
Most of the time, people don't really care about you. That embarrassing thing that happened in seventh grade? Yeah, you're the only person that remembers that.
10. Let people in.
You do not lose a piece of yourself when you open up to someone and it doesn't work out. It is okay to let people in. It's okay to be vulnerable, not everyone wishes for your downfall.
11. Pick your battles.
The battle that I recently had to choose from was feeling left behind or feeling unfulfilled. I obviously chose feeling left behind as it's something I can live with, but feeling unfulfilled wasn't something I wanted to feel in my day to day life.
12. Life is art. Art is everywhere.
See the beauty in everything. Romanticize every single thing you lay your eyes on. Give everything or everyone a story.
13. Acknowledge your privilege.
Everything I wrote came from a place of privilege and I fully acknowledge that. I will not be able to live a life of peace if I fail to overcome the guilt that comes with the privilege I have, so I decided to use it to help more people instead. Entitlement is a no no.
14. Empathize.

aot characters at uni headcanons :) (because i am miserable at uni and wanna romanticise things)
eren
how did this guy get to uni? i guess we’ll never know. i guess we’ll never know
if it’s zoom, he’s most definitely causing chaos
i’m talking spamming the chat for whatever reason
“haha funny meme”
pretending he’s frozen when the prof (levi) calls on him
“jaeger, i can still see you blinking.” “IM NOT BLINKING ITS JUST A GLITCH- oh- shi-“ *goes back to silence and ‘frozen’ state*
and if it’s in perso, he’s still causing chaos.
“PROFESSOR CAN I ASK A QUESTION?” “yes, you can.” “where’s joe?” “who’s joe?” “JOE MAMA!!!!!!!”  “10% off your first assessment.”
im wheezing
*corrects the spelling mistakes on the slides like the petty girlboss he is*
his major? probably something really really really vague
like
is there a bachelor of edginess?
no? okay well probably studying something in humanities / science
does he study?
lmaoooo…..do pigs fly?
but does he somehow get a perfect gpa?
yeah
cause hes the main character, duh
if you don’t count the 10% professor levi deducted because of the joe mama joke
i dont really have anything else to say about him
but i would hate to have him in my class
mikasa
you know that really well dressed, quiet girl that always catches your eye in your lectures?
ladies, bros, and non-binary hoes, may i introduce mikasa ackerman?
she picks her electives so they match up with eren’s 🥺 
and in those classes
hoooo boy
she’s basically a mum
or a dog mum
keeping eren on a leash, if you will
honestly i see her doing a liberal arts degree, with a major in literary studies (i headcanon her as a lit student im sorry ahh she just has that vibe)
like eren, she has a perfect/almost perfect grades
and that’s because she actually STUDIES
like i said, shes really quiet and reserved & basically talks to no one except eren
but damn is she a boy magnet
*cough* JEAN *splutter* 
armin
he’s most definitely a geography student. dont @ me. i dont take constructive criticism. nor do i take criticism in general.
he’s either the teacher’s pet or hated by the teacher because he keeps correcting them
there is no in between 
like mikasa, studies 24/7
unlike mikasa, either does realllly really well or really really bad
he’s a polarising figure okay
and maybe his results are cause he doodles in his textbooks half the time
it’s not even a textbook at this point it’s a fkn sketchbook (lmao my partner’s maths book in high school was filled with the most amazing intricate doodles and basically no maths but he somehow got high 80s so uh) but yeah thats how i see it
daydreamer :D
especially in grades
wears a cardigan
soft boi incarnate 
goes out of his way to help confused freshmen 
cause he’s wholesome like that
#welovearminclub
sasha
FOOD SCIENCE MAJOR I REPEAT FOOD SCIENCE MAJOR
“i study food. and by study, i mean eat.”
mediocre grades at best
im sorry T_T i love her but i can’t see her being bothered at uni
messes around with connie half the time
or tries to at least
poor connie is trying to study
she is that one kid who brings a whole ass meal into class and eats it very loudly
“okay so if we look at the chemical structure of ca-“ *slurp slurp, BITCH*
there are food stains all over her textbooks and the notes connie forced her to take
connie
okay but he had no idea what he wanted to do in uni
so he just did what sasha was doing
food science buddies :D
much to sasha’s chagrin, his grades are better than hers
because he’s actually STUDYING
and idk NOT EATING DURING CLASS
they aren’t perfect grades but they’re good
he’s pretty quiet in class
he’s just tryna pass
and control sasha
idk which one’s harder
i envy the man tho
jean
commerce. major. or smth to do with business
he is so goddamn cocky im sorry it drives me insane
well dressed rich boi vibes
to his credit, he studies really hard and his grades are really good :)
he chooses electives so that they measure up with marco’s :D
i dont have much to say about him
simps for mikasa and mikasa only
loyal frat boi ig???
marco
music major PLSSS
i see him either being the nerdy boy wearing sweaters that plays ukelele/ acoustic guitar on the stairs (surrounded by fangirls)
or the boy with the kazoo that won’t quit (still surround by fangirls cause who doesnt love a kazoo?)
or both :D
when he sees jean sadly listening to ‘glimpse of us’ while thinking about mikasa 
he decides to jump in w a little bit of musical zang. cause he’s supportive
please see https://www.youtube.com/shorts/g82qI-jdRw4 for reference
you won’t regret it
it isn’t a rick roll i promise
like armin, a vvv sweet boy
will help any of his classmates in need :D 
basically stuck to jean like glue
historia
she’s a double major of law and political science
we love a girlboss academic queen
QUEEN? did ya see what i did there???
cmonnn laugh
SUCH a model student and shes so helpful and sweet aaa
everyone loves her
its impossible to hate her
soft girl mixed w light academia aesthetic :D
she is an angel incarnate 
perfect grades perfect social life perfect everything 
also a perfect girlfriend
*stares pointedly at ymir*
ymir
studying criminology because it has similar units to law
and someone in particular is doing law
you catch my drift?
she really doesn’t wanna go to class but will go if historia is going
*historia*ns will say theyre just friends
but we all know better :D
she doesn’t talk to anyone unless its historia
and shes got such a resting bitch face that no one dares approach her
even the professor is scared to call on her
she gets mediocre grades, but they improve when historia forces her to study
hanji
hanji my beloved <333
she’s a professor
the crackhead professor everyone likes
probably chemistry / physics / human bio
something sciency
100% will use her students for her experiments
with consent ofc 
it’s the 21st century after all
veryyyyy disorganised
will 1000000% forget she had class 
turns up 15 minutes late and fuming at the lack of organisation
“WHO THE FUCK IS RUNNING THIS CLASS?” 
“you are, professor”
“oh.”
i love her sm
i hate all sciences but i would study it if she was teaching it
levi
you know shota aizawa from mha?
yeah
that. he’s that guy
he does not fucking want to be there
what does he teach? probably politics or something to do w humanities
he calls his students ‘brats’
but affectionately
right?????? RIGHT????
his dead eyes scares all of the students so much that no one dares say anything
even when he’s asking  them questions
all silent
except for eren
who he tells to shut up 24/7
“class is cancelled because i don’t want to be here. go home, brats.”
if you dare fail his class…just write your will okay?
erwin
10000% a history teacher aHHHH
(totally not biased because i love history)
he’s so passionate about what he does! 
he definitely does re-enactments of battles with help from his students
kinda like rengoku’s spin on a history teacher
is really enthusiastic! 
all of the students love him
some love him a lil toooo much
cmon, you see it too right?
takes students under his wing
just
a ball of sunshine
best professor ever
ahhhh it makes me so happy thinking about it
reiner
first, i would like to establish that we love reiner in this household
and if you don’t agree, LEAVE
seriously tho the guy needs a hug, therapy and cookies
i headcanon him as a humanities and psychology student!
he just wants to learn about the world and make it a better place okay ):
i could also see him as training to be a psychologist
the therapist-type of psychologist that is (clinical psychologist for all you fancy smartpants out there)
studies very very hard!
he throws himself into his work 100000%
all or nothing
speaking of which
he’s all about taking care of his education and his physical fitness too!
soft gymbro reiner
the nice gymbro that drinks respect women juice daily
yeah we stan him :D
probably really popular amongst the ladies and the gays but is too clueless to recognise it
annie
okay first, she’s definitely doing criminology
with the aim of going into the police force
(where i live, you have to do a degree in crim before working as a police - i think :D)
cmon she is canonically in the military police
there is no way she wouldn’t do it in uni
she never ever ever turns up to class
she just doesn’t like people okay
she would much rather be curled up in her dorm with her noise-cancelling headphones
doing her classes online
but if she’s on zoom
camera off, mike off
catch berty dragging her grumpy ass to exams
“ANNIE, YOU HAVE TO ATTEND EXAMS IN PERSON”
*camera cuts to annie who isn’t even planning to do exams at all*
she doesn’t study much
she’s really passive about uni and she doesn’t really care
but she does really well, she has a talent for crim :’)
girlboss incarnate
bertholdt
he is doing a very very very broad humanities degree
our aimless lil boi :’(
managed to do a few crim units to match with annie
( a simp)
always shows up to class
perfect attendance
10/10
but thats only because he hopes that annie will be there
which she never is
really quiet but sweet
mediocre to good grades but nothing out of the ordinary
he’s kinda the boy next door vibes
always wears the same blue sweater
pieck
mommy
mommy? i mean sorry mommy
sorry it just keeps slipping out
thats what she said 
aNYWAYS
she is a very homely and sweet honours student!
like reiner, probably a psych student
cottagecore aesthetic. i dont make the rules.
shes still a student but everyone thinks she’s a professor cause she’s so talented and smart and- adulty?
she has her life together, on the surface
but uh
yeahhhhhhh if you catch her in her natural habitat, her hair is all askew, notes are everywhere and shes crouched on all fours scribbling away at her work
porco
immediate rich daddy boy’s vibes im sorry
“MY FATHER SHALL HEAR ABOUT THIS!” - porco malfoy 2k22
most definitely studying humanities w/ a major in international law and political science
gee i sure hope he doesn’t run into reiner in the humanities building
THAT would make for some drama
and we don’t like drama in this household!
no, that isn’t popcorn in my hands you see
100% the chaddiest chad to ever chad at the university of chad
IM SORRY OKAY I DONT KNOW HOW TO FEEL ABOUT PORCO
TAKE THIS HEADCANON OR LEAVE IT
BECAUSE I SURE AINT TAKING CRITICISM
zeke
i wanna put a forewarning that i have a thing against zeke so proceed w warning
he just gives me bad vibes okay ;-;
he is that professor who wears a trench coat to every single class
even if it’s summer
black. trenchcoat.
his response to every criticism aimed at him? “no bitches?”
i cant fault him for that
like i said, he’s a professor
of political science probs
very very charismatic
the classes he teachers are like a cult fr
they really realllly admire him
alot
like alot alot
okay i think that’s all i can do :’) cause the only other marley person i know well enough to headcanon is colt and im still sad about how he died :(
i hope you enjoyed ! likes/reblogs/shares/comments are appreciated :) lemme know who you want me to do next in the replies xx

hi i really love ur advice and everything u post so. here i am. is it bad that i dont want to see the guy im dating every 'free' moment of my day/week? i love hanging out with him, i feel good when im with him (maybe a bit nervous since it's a really new relationship but we deal with it fine). but like. today is sunday. i have a bunch of things to do, i want to maybe go to the store, relax, grade some papers and call it a day. my mom said 'why dont you invite him for lunch?' and like. yeah that'd be good. but he also said he had a bunch of things to do today, school stuff. so like. am i wrong for not wanting to hang out today? he never makes me feel bad about this btw, he's very understanding with my space and time. i just dont know how to do this relationship thing and i feel like im failing. maybe it's because it's the beggining and i've never done this before, but still. do i suck???????
babes it is most certainly not bad, if anything it is healthy -- i don’t believe that the measure of how good a relationship, or potential relationship, is or could be is tied to how many dates you can cram in with the other person in a week, every week; excitement and eagerness are natural, obviously, and healthy too but you are also still two separate, different, people with your own lives, personalities, and rhythms and both of you respecting this doesn’t necessarily detract from your relationship or your feelings / interest in each other (if anything it affirms it). relationships are different for everyone depending on personality and the people involved, but within any relationship, be it new or years or decades-long, i think there is something to be said for the importance in allowing for you both to have time or interests or activities that don’t necessarily revolve around the other person (it also enriches the time you do spend together because you are both constantly bringing different things to each other).
i think the most important thing here is to try as much as you can to separate expectations (either yours, or others’, or just generalized society’s) of what a new relationship “should” be like, and to check in with yourself and make sure that how you are approaching this is staying true to your values and your own needs and preferences. this is a new relationship. you do not need to stress or worry about what you are or aren’t doing right; you’re simply getting to know a new person and enjoying their company and if you are happy and comfortable so far and most importantly if you both respect each other’s space and needs, then that’s the main thing. you’re doing fine, and space is healthy and good and often quite necessary. i wish you all the best and hope this relationship continues to grow on for you in the healthiest way x

Kazuha's Wise and Whimsical Words
Kaedehara Kazuha X Reader
A/N: aaaa 💕anon ily!! being emotional is completely fine and I would be honoured to become of your good friends!! I will be a part of your life, private message me if you're ever feeling down! I just want my readers happy because they make me happy aaaaaa 🥺
with that being said, i love this request! My parents were so hard on me when it came to exams, but as soon as I broke away from their expectations, I started to appreciate my grades more. I'll leave the real comforting words for Kazuha to say but NO ONE SHOULD EVER be disappointed in yourself if you tried your best. Thank you for your support and the request, I hope the story makes you feel better. Enjoy!
ps: I took into account the fact that not everyone has a mother and a father and not everyone has two parents at all, so only one parent is mentioned here and they are left gender neutral so it's easier to picture yourself in the story.
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈❀┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
"(Y/N). This is not at all what I expected. What happened to you?" Your parent asked sternly.
"Well, I--"
"I don't want to hear any excuses. Your predicted grades were much higher than this!" They said, raising their voice.
"I'm sorry, I--"
"Sorry is not going to improve your results! Do you really think that now is a good time to be slacking off? You have one more exam period before university. I don't care if you pass those exams, I want you to excel. And if you don't, you are not attending Sumeru Academia, whether they accept you or not. I am not paying for you to study overseas, only for you to get mediocre grades." They said, making you even more anxious than before the exam.
"But I got above the average!"
"By two percent! And the average was low." Your parent said, narrowing their eyes slightly and upsetting you with their belittling gaze.
"Realistically--"
"Realistically? Realistically?! If you want to study realistically, you should find someone else to pay for your education. When you want to study successfully, you can come back." They slammed the stack of sheets that displayed your results on the table with a loud bang before folding their arms as you grabbed a jacket and stormed out of the house, tears running down your face.
You walked for a while in the night, before eventually finding yourself in an area you were less familiar with. After recognising it to be somewhere near your boyfriend's current residence off Beidou's ship, you made a beeline for his place, knocking on the door and hoping, praying he would be alone inside.
The door soon opened and Kazuha stood there, initially with a smile on his face but it soon dropped when he saw your expression.
"(Y/N)? What happened?" He asked.
"C-can I come inside?" You sniffled.
"Of course, Love. Come in." He said, ushering you into his quaint little place. You stood by the door that closed behind you before Kazuha pushed the coat you had lazily draped over your shoulder onto the floor and enveloped you in his arms.
You broke down in his embrace. You had done better than most of your fellow students, and frankly, you were kind of proud of your result. But it was foolish of you to think that your parent would accept anything but perfection. They said it was all for you, but you were doubting it. Did you even want to go to Sumeru Academia? You had had your heart set on it since you were a child, but maybe that was only because your folks always envisioned you going there.
"Why are you crying, my love?" Kazuha asked, sitting you down near the fire to warm you up and standing up to get you a blanket and a hot cup of tea.
"I'm not good enough." You mumbled. If it was anyone else, they wouldn't have heard you. But your boyfriend could listen to the wind "talk" - he was very attuned to quiet and subtle noises.
"Nonsense." He smiled, bringing you the blanket as you listened to the water boil in the background.
"You're more than good enough. Everyone who knows you adores you - no one more than me, of course." Kazuha chuckled, eventually setting down two cups of tea and sitting in front of you on the floor.
"Public opinion won't improve my grades." You said, now more stoic than upset. You had almost become numb and desensitised to degrading comments that after you cried a little and calmed down, you'd be straight-faced and almost emotionless. It didn't feel good, but it was certainly better than feeling bad.
"So this is about school." Kazuha nodded, gesturing for you to continue explaining why had happened.
"They keep talking about my grades. They said I shouldn't be slacking and that I'm not going to get to Sumeru Academia and that they want me to do better...maybe I'm interpreting it wrong. Maybe they're trying to encourage me?" You wondered aloud, thinking that somehow you were the problem. As soon as you said "they", Kazuha knew who you are referring to and sighed.
"Encouragement and doubt are two very different things. Unrealistic expectations, detrimental practices, emotionally, mentally or physically taxing improvement - none of that is going to help you. In fact, it'll make you feel worse. When you really think about what you have to do to achieve perfection, you'll only realise how unattainable it is. You'll fall into a perpetual spiral of intellectual destruction." Kazuha said.
"Then how the hell am I gonna get the best results?" You asked worriedly.
"You won't. No one will ever get the best results because more people and more previously unforeseen factors will come into play. What you can achieve is your best results. Your grades are a product of you, not the other way around. They are no measure of your worth, they cannot define you, and they do not have to be a part of you. If you don't ace one subject, you don't have to hang on to that or turn it into some strange part of you. You can't cling to it, it's impossible to cling to a piece of the past forever. That's not to say you don't learn from it, but it doesn't need to become some villainous trait - in the end, it is only a grade." Kazuha shield at you. His words warmed your heart more than the fire or tea, and they even seemed to dry your tears and allow you to mirror his expression.
"And at the very least, you can hold your head high knowing that you had the strength to participate in an exam when not everyone does. You went in, sat through it, attempted the questions and walked out. Not everyone has the courage to stay; some don't even have the courage to start. That goes for any endeavour you face." Kazuha said, before inching closer to you.
"Feeling any better?" He asked. You nodded instantly. Of course, Kazuha's wise and whimsical words had bettered your mood, it was Kazuha for Archon's sake.
"Good. Maybe we could go for an evening stroll? I'll treat you to dinner if you haven't eaten." He offered.
"Can...can we just stay like this for a little longer? I think being alone with you is nicer." You smiled.
"Of course, Angel. Anything you want."
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈❀┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
this was less physical fluff than I intended, but I think I do comfort with direct words and dialogue best, so I hope this is okay. honestly, everything kasha said is what I would've wished to hear when I was in this situation. I'll probably post a rant about my own exam experiences because this request got all my past feelings to resurface.
thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed!
