#which is hard for him to get cause he has self esteem issues but realizing it will help him temper his temper (lol)

[o-vera-nalyzing]

i had to add the tags cause goddamn that’s so fucking real. and it’s so natural for him to go overboard in the other direction when trying to heal from the mindset of always trying to be smaller and nicer etc

but it goes back to what zelda said sophomore year, he’s not a weird guy offering a flower to someone the first day of school and singing a song trying not to get mad. he’s a rockstar, he’s saved the world, his friend group is the most popular and objectively coolest in the school, he’s literally killed many people which might not be that weird in spire but a good amount of those people were school faculty. like he’s intimidating and scary and cool and has a group of friends who can, have, and will kill for him.

i don’t think he fully realizes it yet but eventually he’s gonna realize when he says certain things that are healing for him because he’s breaking from his forced placidness, that those things can also really hurt other people. and i think with the support and friends and role models he has he’ll learn time and place and lines not to cross, etc, but i honestly just love to see the growth.

anyways he’s my boy and he’s finally standing up for himself unapologetically and maybe the whole rage thing is connected to the overarching plot in a bad way but honestly i don’t care gorgug deserves to be mad bffr. he’s in high school and he’s got a stellar support system he’ll learn when to be mad and when being mad is an understandable reaction and even though it’s not bad it isn’t the most useful or acceptable in every scenario.

i honestly think that Gorgug bullying Mary Ann is a good thing for the fandom bc i see so many of you guys being like "oh he's so sweet he would never hurt a fly", still treating him like he had no evolution since the first day of freshman year and the tinfoil flower... wrong. Gorgug is as capable of being a shithead as any of the others. he's a tall strong teenager who could very well turn into a bully if he wanted to, just like any of us, and who keeps getting pushed into it by his teacher and even his friends. Gorgug's road to self-affirmation cannot be brought forward without casualties, otherwise his narrative arc wouldn't have any weight ; this is a character who grew up being taught that you have to make yourself smaller, to always be kind and nice and arranging to others, while the general public kept seeing him as this big threatening monster !! of course he's going to take up some bad behaviors on the way of breaking free out of that. i hope he keeps having outbursts until the bad kids are forced to realize that it's not so fun anymore and to actually intervene.

Super Danganronpa: Goodbye Despair Extended Zodiac: My Thoughts

Hey gamers, I'm back on my weird fixation again. Time to buckle up, 'cause we're doing more zodiac shenanigans for the dangan-boys and dangan-girls! I've explained the concept several times now, so you probably don't need me to do it again.

In fact, I think I'll include links to the previous posts I made on this topic, as well as the V3 edition whenever that gets done in the future. I'm going to put it above the Keep Reading line, in case you want to avoid scrolling through spoilers. Here they are:

Trigger Happy Havoc

Masterminds

Goodbye Despair (You are here!)

Killing Harmony

Enough of that now; let's get started! Danganronpa spoilers inbound!

Hajime Hinata - January 1

Capries - Sign of the Bold (Capricorn, Derse, Time)

Born on the first day of the year, Hajime is a Capricorn! Capricorns do everything they can to achieve their goal, no matter how hard they have to work. They can also be selective about who they share their goals with, especially if, logically, they know it's not the best plan.

This is Hajime to a T, especially in the Despair Arc of the anime. He's worked hard to become a student of Hope's Peak Academy, even if he can only attend as a Reserve Course student, but that's not enough: he wants to be talented, to be a true and accepted Ultimate at the academy, and he's willing to make tough decisions in order to reach that dream... namely, a lot of terrible decisions. He throws away who he is as a person to become a talent lab rat, which in turn leads to the events that causes the Biggest Most Awful Most Tragic Event in Human History. The one person he shared his goals with was Chiaki, and and though he likely knew her advice was sound, he wouldn't give up. Or maybe he couldn't?

Next is Lunar Sway, and I chose Derse for Hajime. Skeptical, introverted, and an inherent need to rebel against the system of Talented vs Untalented by becoming talented through artificial means; Hajime's pretty cut and dry. It can also be hard for him to appreciate the present moment, as seen in the prologue of Goodbye Despair where he refuses to join the others in enjoying the beach. And, of course, by the time he feels ready to participate, the Killing Game begins. His Derse traits fit here quite nicely, too.

Next comes his aspect, which was a bit of a difficult decision, but I eventually ended up with Time (other choices were blood, doom, and heart, surprisingly). Time players feel a constant struggle in their lives, literal or metaphorical, and if that isn't Hajime Hinata's life story right there, I don't know what is. His lack of talent, and the self-esteem issues that stem from that, make life quite difficult for Hajime. Despite working hard and paying a lot of money, he's "only" a Reserve Course student (which has always felt weird to me? Like, there's a huge tuition fee and massive tests and exams in order to get in; they may not be Ultimates, but they're definitely talented). Not only does this wear away at his emotional stability, but there's that one scene in the anime where a teacher beats him up when he tries to enter the main campus! Who knows how many times that happened offscreen! Also like a Time player, Hajime is a relentless problem solver (makes sense, since he's a protagonist) AND impulsive. Seriously, none of the adults in his personal life (parents or guardians) nixed the thought of Hajime doing the Hope Cultivation Project? Not one? He's either a good liar or he has even more struggles than I realized.

Lastly, his word: the Bold. I wasn't sure about this one at first; Hajime can certainly be courageous when he needs to be, but confident? Only if the class trial demands it. The key that made me chose this word, though, was the fact that he's very willing to take risks. I don't know the full extent of how he became a lab rat, but there must have been some discussion of risks, even if they were downplayed considerably. It didn't matter to Hajime, though. No matter what price he'd have to pay, fiscally or physically, he would do anything to become an Ultimate student. And he did.

Chiaki Nanami - March 14

Pimino - Sign of the Empathetic (Pisces, Prospit, Doom)

Interesting fact, apparently Chiaki shares the same birthday as Chihiro Fujisaki from THH, which makes them both Pisces! We're only going to talk about Chiaki today, though.

Pisces people often have an enigmatic and otherworldly quality about them, though a lot of that is because they like to daydream and get lost in their own thoughts. Chiaki's quiet but rational nature is often hidden by her tendency to sleep standing up and focus on her videogames, and, as it turns out in Goodbye Despair, there IS something otherworldly about her: she isn't human! Even when she was still alive, her kindness to and friendship with Hajime stuck around even after he became Izuru, and though he didn't remember who she was, she managed to do something quite enigmatic: she made him cry at her death. Alive or not, Chiaki has something special about her that suits a Pisces perfectly.

For Lunar Sway, I gave Chiaki Prospit, which may seem a bit odd, but hear me out. While it's true she's more introverted and less likely to make huge reactions, like a Derse dreamer would be, that's just because that's her honest personality. Prospit dreamers don't always have control over how they present themselves to the world; they exist as they are, even if they're naturally quiet people. Prospit dreamers also have difficulty with deception. Though Chiaki physically couldn't reveal her role as the "traitor" in Goodbye Despair, she didn't do much to keep it a secret, either. She willingly put her student handbook on Nagito's bomb, which he claimed could only be done by the traitor, and once the purpose of Nagito's death was revealed, Chiaki desperately did her best to reveal what she was so that the others could survive. Very Prospit-like, in her own way.

Doom players "are fate's chosen sufferers." Given all the horrible things Chiaki goes through in both the anime and Goodbye Despair, this one's pretty straightforward. And while she might not be able to directly help someone in trouble, she's a very willing sounding board for anyone who needs to vent (namely Hajime). She puts the company in "misery loves company", with the wisdom, kindness, and non-judgmental attitude to go with it.

Finally, Chiaki's word: the Empathetic. This plays off of a lot of what I already said, but it's further proven with her death in the anime: despite actively dying in a super painful way, she cries because she's worried about her classmates and Hajime. She wants nothing more to live so they can all be friends and play videogames together. She knows the impact she has on her classmates and the respect and care they have for her, so she knows her death will leave a terrible impact and she worries what the aftermath will look like for them. Sadly, it was probably worse than she thought it would be.

Nagito Komaeda - April 28

Taurius - Sign of the Unmapped (Taurus, Derse, Hope)

Born on either the rainiest day of April or the driest April in years (depending on his luck), Nagito is a Taurus!

This... probably seems like an odd choice for Nagito. It certainly felt that way to me at first, since Taurus' are typically openhearted and withdrawn. Much like Byakuya from THH, though, it all comes down to stubbornness. Nagito is one of the most stubborn characters in the series, tying himself to the powers of Hope and Talent even when no one else sees things his way. Despite how close he acted with Hajime before the fourth class trial, the second he found out Hajime didn't have a talent, Hajime became dirt beneath his shoe. I wonder to myself how much of that was Nagito's honest feelings or just his strict adherence to his code of Hope; especially considering his special episode in the anime, where he wakes up from the NEO World Program with Hajime/Izuru's help. His deepest desire seems to be a world without talent (and by extension, a world without separation of talented and talentless), but he's quick to deny such a concept when he awakens. Is he stubbornly against talentless people for real, or is it simply a way of thinking he can't let go of? Who knows?

Next, the Lunar Sway: Nagito's fairly clearly a Derse dreamer. Nagito is acts very humble- often to an annoying degree- but his statements don't always feel so honest; some false humility, perhaps? He also has an odd sense of humor, and can be incredibly shrewd and calculating. While he claims that his talent "sucks", he still knows how to put it to good use, constructing a convoluted death trap for himself that will identify the traitor. And it works... to a point. Just his luck that Chiaki had faith in her friends and wanted them to survive, huh?

I really, REALLY didn't want to do this; I know he'd be freaking out right now if he were real, but unfortunately it seems to be one of the better fits, especially with his word. Nagito is... a Hope player (collective groan). The Hope bound are driven by their convictions, their idea of what is "right" and "wrong", even if it's not the conventional definitions. As mentioned in the Taurus paragraph, Nagito is tied down to his ideal of Hope and Talent being the ruling forces of the world. He's also not adverse to destruction in order to enforce that ideal; he brings a bomb to school to try and cancel exams because stressing out the other Ultimates will make them feel hopeless, or something along those lines. He very much knows that it's not appropriate to do that, but he's gotta do what he's gotta do to bring forth all of that hope. Though these ideals can make him narrow-minded and selfish, there are instances where he can be positive, warm, and even caring! Misguided and wrong as his methods were, Nagito did really want to help his classmates when they were feeling stressed. Well, at least he can have some hope in the form of being a Hope player in some rando's (me) Extended Zodiac discussion.

Finally, his word, which is what won me over to making him Hope: the Unmapped. While this world usually refers to geographical or even genetic uncertainty, it can be used here to describe Nagito's thought process. During the Funhouse arc in Goodbye Despair, the players gets to control Nagito for a bit, and we get a look at how he thinks vs what he says: a whole lot of thinking, not a whole lot of explaining his reasoning aloud. He's a complete mystery to everyone around him, like an uncharted map.

Lastly, I'm going to do my favorite character in Goodbye Despair (and then I'm going to go to BED! I keep forgetting how much work these posts are until after I start them. Anyway, put your hands together for:

Peko Pekoyama - June 30

Canittarius - Sign of the Striking (Cancer, Derse, Void)

A quiet swordswoman with an intense loyalty to her special one? Yeah, sounds like my kind of character. Anyway, Peko Pekoyama is a Cancer!

Resolute but surprisingly emotional, Cancers tend to create a hard outer shell to protect their soft and sweet insides. In Peko's case, she cares highly for Fuyuhiko, but thinks that such feelings are wrong for her to have since she's merely a tool to him (from her perspective). Thus, she creates a solemn and loyal personality befitting a piece of equipment like her, though she likely longs for something more from her young master.

In a similar way, Derse makes a lot of sense for her Lunar Sway. Cerebral and less inclined to vulnerability, a swordswoman like her needs to be able to calculate the best path to victory. Those skills are probably also useful for her social "life" as a pseudo member of a Yakuza family. Careful thinking and choosing your words carefully probably goes a long way.

Then the Aspect, which was rather difficult to decide on, but I finally chose Void. Void players are wise and intuitive people, but can also seem dismissive and apathetic. Peko decides to become Fuyuhiko's "murder weapon" in a clever attempt to help him survive, but in doing so, she's completely dismissive of what he wants until it's too late. And during her execution, she acts on instinct: the second Fuyuhiko is in danger- especially at her own hand- she stops fighting and uses the last of her strength to keep him alive. A very intuitive choice, indeed.

Finally her word: the Striking. Yes, this is a pun on how she strikes people with her bamboo sword, but her attempts to swindle the other characters into voting for the "wrong murderer" involve extreme, attention-grabbing methods: putting on a show as Sparkling Justice, the serial killer, and convincing people to make the "wrong choice". Of course, that's not the way it played out, but her attempts were certainly striking in their own way.

---

...And, those are my opinions! I'd definitely love to hear your thoughts and/or own opinions about which combinations fit better, so feel free to say something if you feel so inclined. I'm going to bed, it's late where I am and I've got a busy morning ahead of me. See you around!

[fanaiceach]

okay. pros and cons to shipping w geoffrey:

pros:

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: guard dog loyalty. knight in semi shining armor. there is no problem in this world he won’t face head on at your side. he’ll kill for you

in spite of this he’s not a jealous person, which I think is refreshing. in the Pining stage he does get jealous, but once there’s a Relationship he’s very secure in that, and he doesn’t go looking for reasons to distrust his partner. yeah he can be a skeptical person at first, but once he trusts someone he’s going to take them at their word unless they give him blatant reasons not to

accent hot

physicality. granted this isn’t something he really recognizes as a plus, but this isn’t about his depersonalization issues. he’s tall, he’s built like a brick wall, and yes the equipment is proportional. also lots of scars if you’re into that

pretty blue eyes <3

in addition to the guard dog thing he’s a provider. big acts of service guy. he loves doing things for his partner that will make their life easier — and maybe that can’t always be monetary providing but he’ll do all the chores you hate and he’s handy around the house

speaking of domesticity: he does his own laundry. and he can cook. not particularly well, even less so if he hasn’t eaten human food in decades, but hey, you won’t starve!

vampire boyfriend hot (verse dependent)

once you work through some tough outer layers he can be a very romantic person. his parents were very outwardly loving with each other and he definitely learned from them. he’ll pay attention to his partner, what they like and dislike, and he never needs to be reminded of important dates

cons:

yikes. where to start.

he’s intense. and while that can be attractive, it’s not always a good thing to be so one track minded. he has some very black and white views, and although he can be convinced to change his mind that’s a challenge. if you’re not the subject of his ire it’s probably fine, but if you’re on his shitlist for any particular reason then I hope you really like enemies to lovers

it can be difficult for him to accept that he’s someone worthy of romantic love. it’s a self esteem thing and also just a byproduct of the way he’s lived since he was very young. he has a hard time conceptualizing himself as someone who can have a life outside of his Cause / Purpose — he lives and breathes for whatever he’s dedicated himself to in any given verse and has the blinders on big time. you have to be very patient with him and let him realize on his own that he does in fact have Human Wants. and he will realize this eventually I promise! it just takes time and some serious self reflection after whatever groundbreaking events happen to him

kind of mid in bed tbh. not in an intentionally incompetent way, but much in the same way he’s never had the luxury of fantasizing about having a life, he’s also never had the luxury of taking his time when having sex. he can be taught but one must be accepting of quickies as the early stage default if they want this to work

internalized toxic masculinity. and I do mean it is completely 100% internalized — he doesn’t hold others to the same standards he holds himself. and maybe this isn’t even completely about being a Man so much as it is about being a Leader, but for him it kinda goes hand in hand. he expects himself to be a provider and a pillar and a steadfastly reliable man and might freak out a little whenever someone challenges that. it’ll mellow over time as with most of his negative traits, but it can be a lot at first. more specific to historical verses and up to a certain point in his post-canon standard verses, there’s also some internalized homophobia he’s gotta work through too

vampire boyfriend guilt complex (verse dependent)

essentially: you need to domesticate this man like a feral cat. make him realize it’s okay to want a soft place to land. that it’s okay to want to be loved. I don’t want to present him as someone who needs to be fixed, because he isn’t, but the reality is that he’s not someone with any real experience in the realm of relationships, and if someone wants to have a crack at it they’ll need to be patient while he works through some shit first. he’d never ask or expect someone to put up with that, either, so this is all also dependent on the other person being a little forward with their intentions (just hold out your hand and pspspsps him a little). and in that regard, don’t get me wrong, he’ll flirt and initiate — but to actually make the leap to a full Relationship requires an outside shove

Changbin's Reading

October 13, 2024

Right Now

He's planning something around the number 4. It could be the 4th day, the 4th month of next year, something linked to the number 4, and he's really involved in it. He's been super active, giving his opinions on the issues he's working on for this project, though I don't know exactly what it is. He's in a really good place with his self-esteem right now. He's loving himself more. I think in the past he struggled with self-acceptance, but now he's going through a phase of loving being in his own skin and truly valuing himself.

And that's opening doors for possible romantic interests in his life.

But he's been feeling really tired. He's working a lot and hasn't had much time to enjoy life. So, he really wants to take some time to relax a bit.

Love Life

He's involved with more than one person, and he doesn’t really feel like committing emotionally to anyone. It’s more physical for him, and he really likes being in control of things, including his own emotions. He tends to approach things logically and talks things through. He’s not just seeing one person. I feel like there are probably two or three people he’s been seeing more frequently.

It seems very casual, and one of the people he's involved with might also work in his field, maybe in entertainment. It could also be someone he’s known for a long time. He’s been feeling a bit confused about some of these relationships because, even though they’re casual, he feels strong connections with a few of them.

Career

I think he's doing a great job, traveling the world, but he’s very protective of his privacy. He doesn’t like people digging into his personal life or asking about certain private things, and something has been really hurting him lately. It's left him feeling anxious because one of the people he's involved with is someone he could see himself having something serious with someday—maybe even getting into a relationship or getting married.

But he realizes that for that to happen, it would be really difficult. The biggest obstacle is his fame, and he’s sure that this person wouldn’t be well-received by his fans. He knows the fans would judge the relationship, and it would probably end because of that. This has been on his mind a lot recently because he wants something serious one day, but he sees that where he is now, it’s hard to make that a reality.

Family

He cares a lot about his family and has so much love for them, but they tend to be very judgmental. They might hold very conservative views and are harshly critical of other ways of thinking and acting.

There’s a young girl in his family who’s been suffering a lot because of their judgment. He’s been really worried about her because the criticism has been so intense that it’s caused her to isolate herself, and most of the family is against her. This situation has been stressing him out a lot, and he’s really concerned about her.

Friendships

He has a lot of friends he can rely on, and there’s a woman he’s very close to, someone he really values and protects his friendship with. However, he’s been feeling quite cautious about another friend from work.

This person is impulsive and has certain behaviors or maybe even habits or addictions that he strongly disagrees with. Because of this, he’s taken a step back from their connection, as he feels it’s something he can’t support or accept.

Future

He’s going to move away from being so logical and overly cautious with his words and actions. He’ll feel more confident to just be himself, and I think soon he’ll show people who he truly is at his core. I believe this might become the best phase of his life because he’s going to fully love himself.

He’ll also recognize his flaws and handle them with ease and a light-hearted attitude, which is a big shift. His self-esteem, which has been a major challenge for him, is going to improve. I see him really valuing himself in all aspects.

He’s going to be working on a new project with different people, and he’ll feel really excited and curious about what others will think. He won’t be afraid of the outcome—he’ll feel light and energized, enjoying the process and doing what he loves. He’ll also be more in touch with his emotions, even though he’s usually more in his head. He gives off earth sign vibes rather than fire sign, but he’ll start connecting more with his feelings.

[dirkselbows]

"omegaverse dirk and roxy scents are unpleasant but when you grew up with that it's a very nice smell actually their ectochildren say (incest included)"

(I gave this a title cuz I ramble so much and can't get to the point to save my life)

ok random thought but like. I once read a hannibal a/b/o fic where blood scent just REAKED of blood. and most people found it just atrocious to be around (except of hannibal ofc)

So. what if dirk and roxy had just. very weird and kinda unpleasant smells.

maybe dirk smells of blood, maybe of iron of how your fingers smell after touching metal too much. maybe he smells of newly made tires (oh my gog, tires smell so bad I want to vomit). Oh or moldy citruces(I hate that smell) and Maybe usually people woudnt mid as much but his smells is way to strong and overpowering and just it's hard to exist in the same room as him without covering your nose

for roxy. maybe cat litter? alkohol? moldy pumpkins? her smell wouldn't be as strong. it would be pretty faint actually (with being void and stuff). but it you try to get close to her you can smell it. And is it Not a pleasant smell.

And they lived for 16 years alone! dirk had nobody and roxys carapatians probably didn't get all that close or maybe they just don't have as strong sense of smell. Actually maybe smelling like something to not be eaten saved her from accidently being eaten by them? Who knows.

And they get into the session with Jane and Jake, and one of the first things they learn is how sweet and lovelly Jane and Jake smell and how unpleasant they personally smell. which really is a hit into their self esteem(it's going into negatives).

but the session is moslty outside so it's not too much of an issue. And maybe Jake kinds likes the weird smell dirk has at least in small doses. but that won't save their relationship.

and maybe. after everything. And meeting with the beta kids. and somewhat settling on earth c (dubvious canon not compliant). And everybody getting kinda homesick and missing their guardians even if they were shit cuz like. That's what they knew as kids. Thats the smells they were comforted by.

and let me tell you. Dirk and Roxy smell pretty much identical to bro and mom.

so maybe. in some chain of events ends up with both dave and rose just. Putting their noses into dirks and roxies neck. right on the scent gland. And just breathing in. and feelings just a little bit better thanks to this smell that used to fill out their home but does no more. And they realize just How much they miss their guardians even if they did a shit job.

rose proabbly would be first to make a move. since roxies smell is way fainter so she can't just. smell it by being somewhat near. no clue how it would go tho. (I. Don't really know lalondes all that well sorry </3)

dave tho. Dave proabbly would end up hovering around dirk relatively often. Or just visiting his house. Dirk proabbly woudnt really invite anybody over cuz of how full of his smell his house is but dave after some time decides to just invite himself over for reasons like rap battles and shit. and only after a relatively long time (dave knows exaclty how much time had passed since he first cought scent of dirk) when maybe sleep deprived or a bit drunk he ends up just snuggling into dirks neck cuz the smell is the strongest there and it just so comforting. the smell is here and it's not running away and it's good.

And stuff just kinda goes forward from there. Dave and rose smelling now of dirk and roxy, respectivly. I'm sure there would be some drama with kanaya proabbly. Dave gets to know what it's like to smell in a way that most people find not super pleasant. dirk proabbly secretly likes it cuz it's not just claiming theritory in the usual way but also has stronger effect since many people don't even want to be too close to dave cause of it. life is good for those two proabbly.

also realized that bro probably would need to wash smuppets in some very strong detergent before shipping them cuz he got complains over them smelling like moldy oranges or something.

[aroace-polyshow]

hellloooooo lovely meowtual may you please talk about hw tsukasa?!?!? as per ur request

hehehehhe. you guys are so so niceys to me btw. cries

awawawa so tsukasa tenma. world future star. he isn’t too different from canon tbh. he’s still loud as always, got that high ego, got those memory issues and everything. his past isn’t much different from canon either. his goal to be a star still came from wanting to make people smile like shows made saki smile, but he forgets that, etc etc you get how it goes. but yknow. n25 swap. he isn’t doing great.

he tends to set high standards for himself, and he’s been trying really hard to get into the acting scene, but it hasn’t been going well. the constant failures have slowly but surely been weighing on him. he’s got a lot of frustration building up, and all that has definitely hit him in the self esteem department *just a tad*, but he does not acknowledge that! cause of course he doesn’t. he’s tsukasa tenma, he’s going to be a star! a star like him doesn’t have time to worry about stuff like that. all he needs to do is keep pushing forward, keep trying harder and harder, just don’t think about the past and all the constant setbacks and he’ll be fine! probably. he has to be fine after all. what kind of a star would he be if he wasn’t?

saki and toya do notice smth’s up with him, saki especially, but tsukasa being tsukasa he lies to them, both intentionally and unintentionally. by that i mean like. like he genuinely Does Not Know he’s not fine. he is just avoiding thinking about his own negative feelings too much, so he just does not fucking realize. when he’s confronted with the idea that he might not actually be perfectly fine, he’s genuinely confused. so when he’s asked if he’s okay, he says yes, because he’s sure he is. and sure sometimes he gets a little down, and he does intentionally lie to them those times, but its simply nothing his siblings need to worry about, so there’s no point in telling them! they don’t need to know, cause he’ll be okay! he can deal with it on his own, he *has* to deal with it on his own, he’ll (repress it) get over it soon enough! no need to worry them :)

like i mentioned, tsukasa’s also the only one still actively doing theater at the time of the main story. he loves it, he’s dedicated to it, he hasn’t given up on it yet. and he gets to be the one to get hw back into it. yayayayay. i like to think hw is very fond of him, like rui and nene were w/ emu. here’s another one of their group who holds so much passion for theater and loves it, and who hasn’t given up on it. they believe in him. its like living vicariously through him. yk. they might not know each other too well yet, but they hope it goes well for him.

and like idk but the thing about tsukasa and theater is that its So important to him, he’s devoted so much of his life to it, he can’t see himself doing anything else. he doesn’t have a driving motivation for it, he can’t remember it, but all he’s sure of is that he has to reach this goal. so like. when faced with the idea that maybe he *isn’t* good enough to become a star like he wants to, its terrifying to him. so he just. doesn’t think about that. every failed audition, every rejection, every setback is a reminder of that though. main story gets him to his last straw. which is fun!

again. main story ideas are giving me trouble. and i’m still figuring stuff out. so not elaborating too much on what happens. but after a series of events tsukasa remembers and gets the rest of hw on board w/ trying to do shows again. cause like, again they don’t know each other that well but tsukasa does care about them, he wants to make people smile and his friends are included in that. he wants them to enjoy shows again. he wants his friends happy. and w/ enough persuasion hw joins him and yayy they become a theater troupe. yippee :3 

i might have more thoughts to add later. idk. i’d add a fun facts section but i already mentioned everything i had for him in past posts jdhfgdfjkgl

BIOGRAPHY

George O'Malley was born and raised in a close-knit family. He grew up with two older brothers, Jerry and Ronny, who often teased him, contributing to his feelings of inadequacy and his drive to prove himself. His mother, Louise O'Malley, is very loving and supportive, while his father, Harold O'Malley, is a traditional man with health issues that later become significant in George's life.

George excelled academically and pursued his dream of becoming a doctor. He attended medical school, where he was known for his dedication and hard work, despite often struggling with self-confidence.

George began his medical career as a surgical intern at Seattle Grace Hospital, joining a group that included Meredith Grey, Cristina Yang, Izzie Stevens, and Alex Karev. His initial nerves and a botched appendectomy earned him the nickname "007," implying a "license to kill," which deeply affected his self-esteem.

Under the mentorship of Dr. Miranda Bailey, George worked hard to overcome his initial setbacks. Bailey's tough but caring guidance was instrumental in his development as a surgeon.

Throughout his time at Seattle Grace, George struggled with confidence and competence issues. Despite these challenges, he demonstrated growth and resilience, earning respect from his peers and superiors.

George's father, Harold, was diagnosed with cancer and underwent a complex surgery that was ultimately unsuccessful. Harold's death deeply affected George, causing him to reassess his life and career.

George's personal life was marked by complex relationships. His impulsive marriage to Callie Torres ended in divorce after his affair with Izzie Stevens. His romantic life was often turbulent, reflecting his internal struggles and desire for genuine connection.

He heroically saved a woman from being hit by a bus, sustaining severe injuries in the process. The extent of his injuries made him unrecognizable, and it was only through writing "007" in Meredith's hand that his colleagues realized his identity. George's death was a significant and emotional turning point in the series.

His character embodies the themes of compassion, resilience, and the importance of personal and professional integrity. George's legacy lives on through the lives he touched and the lessons he imparted, making him one of the most beloved and enduring characters.

His actual canon bio: HERE, which has more details.

VERSES:

V: Georgie O'Malley [Early Life]

George was the youngest brother of three brothers and not as tough as his other two brothers. But, he was smart and he eventually chose to go to medical school.

V: 007 [Intern Year(s) and Residence]

George is one of five interns at Seattle Grace, and he earns the title 007, after just a couple weeks. He struggles but perseveres. Even as he has to repeat his intern year until he gets to retake it and become a resident with his friends, he still tries his best.

V: I'm about to do something important [Canon Divergence]

Maybe George didn't leave to meet his mom or didn't join the army. Maybe he did. But this is all canon divergency and AU.

Ok so some things about izumi. This is in no specific order, please forgive me

He's a perfectionist to the core. He will finish any job given to him and will see it through to the end no matter what. In his mind, this is what professionalism is. To be fair, he was literally raised with parents who were like "we are going to put everything into you and you will be perfect😊" so i can't blame him for being like this

loves modeling and fashion and being pretty and being loved (duh) but also being a model since he was a child definitely messed him up in a way (self esteem issues, hinted at eating disorders, need for validation etc)

good at cooking! Because he cannot stand the idea of eating something that might be unhealthy, he makes all his meals by himself

used to SUCK at singing but leo taught him

modeled in the same agency as naru and makoto when they were kids. Childhood friends with makoto. Childhood rivals with naru lmao

dotes on makoto a Lot. Just generally got really attached to makoto when they were kids and declared himself makoto's honorary older brother but then shit went down at the agency and him and makoto got separated. Ouch.

In the road to show movie he was all like "Don't worry! I'll protect you!" towards makoto when they got surrounded by strangers attacking them but. Immediately he lost and makoto ended up being the one kicking ass. Cringefail guy but he won't stop trying to be other people's shields.

has both tsundere and yandere tendencies though I dislike using either terms strictly for him cause he isn't actually either of those things

The tsundere tendency is "i cannot actually open up about my feelings ever, nor can i allow myself to feel them, actually" which kinda ties back to his perfectionism. He is so hard headed and stupid when it comes to emotions and it's frustrating.

Huge ass and bullies people on purpose. This is because he's actually a huge softie and hates himself for hurting so many people during the yumenosaki war so he doesn't want people to get closer to him because he doesn't want to accidentally hurt someone again (don't worry he eventually realizes that it's kinda stupid and that coming into contact with people will always carry some risk of hurting someone so like, whatever)

Cannot stop and won't stop complaining about everything all the time. It's his way of making small talk, i guess.

Back to the huge softie thing, he tried SO HARD to look cool in front of his juniors at the tennis club when he was graduating but then they gave him gifts and then he started crying his heart out immediately

gives out nicknames sometimes (Kuma-kun for ritsu, momo-kun for tori, kasa-kun for tsukasa)

Once when talking to naru, he said something like "yeah makoto is like a brother to me but you...you're like my own kid" and she was like "what about leo?" and he answered with "That one's a pet". Izumi number one leo caretaker so real

Knows how to crochet! He made kasa a lil dino plushie. Also made makoto a scarf once

Co established knights with leo but then leo left and he had to be a fill in leader for knights all by himself and then the others left too and he had to be knights all on his own for a while. He took so much responsibility that was never supposed to be his in the first place. Literally the reason and the pillar why knights still exists sniffles

Loves italy in the same way shu loves france. Okay maybe not as much as shu loves france but kinda the same way. Like a weeabo but for europe.

Modeling career not going well for him overseas and this is a huge hit to his self esteem

Like sourdough bread, he has a hard exterior but soft interior. He's good with animals and kids and actually cares about his juniors a lot

Like he looked after sora in next door and he looked after little john (cat) while leo was gone and he looked after a random kid who got lost at the beach in the beach scout story and also look at him looking at his juniors (makoto and tsukasa) sleeping. Just look at the fondness in his eyes omg. He will never be this nice to them when they are awake though

Once asked makoto "me or trickstar?" and makoto was like "trickstar" and. you guessed it. He started crying.

is it okay if i'm only a knightsP not specifically an izumiP? and also like. How much do you wanna know?

That's totally fine! And honestly just whatever you feel like telling me. I know the basics about his character (about as much as I can gleam from reading main story, a few minor event stories, and checkmate) but tbh I'll take whatever insight I can get.

I don't produce any of Knights so I'm all ears.

reblogging myself here, @redfurrycat, because I realized tumblr cut off some of the tags 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 so doing this to ensure the mpreg idea is all there share:

but no the idea for hangster I got while cooking yesterday was an angsty mpreg where Jake and Bradley sort of start working out their issues before Bradley is tasked with a blackout comms mission and he's away for nearly 14 months and he's hoping like hell that Jake will still be waiting for him.

only to come back to Jake living with IceMav and has a baby girl and Bradley with his massive self esteem issues assumes that IceMav have replaced him with Jake (because he KNOWS that Jake is more like them than he'll ever be) and that Jake has clearly moved on so Bradley spirals because in his mind he's lost the love of his life AND his family has clearly replaced him with who he believes to be a better fit for them and sort of pulls a Mav with his don't think just do & pulls in any and all favors he can

& tries to get himself transferred out of the pacific fleet and in the Atlantic fleet but can't because of the commander of the Atlantic fleet is slider, who won't approve the transfer without talking to ice who immediately shows up with a ?!?!?! &then there's a fight because of course there is with Bradley and ice realizes that there are still a LOT of underline issues with what he & Mav did by pulling his papers and realizes that Bradley has made a lot assumptions because he doesn't have all the facts &is just assume the worst but after a bit eventually Ice gets Bradley to agree to come home to talk to them all &if after he still wants to go; Ice will ensure he gets to go without any issues

(Mav Ice & Jake in this all realizing that they've all kind of assumed Bradley had gotten over/worked out through his issues with them and are horrified to learn he's actually just buried it because he's just been so grateful to have them all back in his life that he never actually learned that he didn't process all of the hurts he had with them or worked through all the issues his mom's promised wrought for how he interacted with the world and how he trusted and assumed he should be loved and treated)

Jake is especially horrified by all of this because BRADLEY worked so fucking hard to ensure that all the shit he spewed at Jake over the years and the damage he caused was made up for and worked to be truly forgiven before Bradley went off on his blackout comms mission and Jake nearly has a breakdown because he realizes he never extended the same sort of effort to Bradley which is in part of WHY Bradley was so nervous and unsure about Jake truly willing to wait for him. what I'm really saying here is that Bradley has no fucking self esteem and everyone in his life assumes he knows he's actually loved but he doesn't because babygirl has no self esteem or self worth.

IceMav and Jake work really hard with Bradley to ensure he knows they love him and want him. that Jake hasn't let any person touch him since Bradley kissed him all soft and unsure when they were celebrating THE MISSIONS success and hasn't ever really seriously entertained the idea of settling with ANYONE but Bradley, since the FRIST time they got together! but it's a lot of work and a lot of tough conversations, ones Bradley doesn't really start taking seriously until he gets informed that the baby girl, Nicole Elizabeth Carole Bradshaw, is in fact his child, that Bradley actually starts putting in the heavy work to get himself mentally healthy because like fuck is he going to let his child grow up feeling or thinking about themselves like Bradley does to himself.

I need to stop getting ideas while I'm cooking dinner 😔😭😭😔
