That's a ✨happy vibe ask✨ because you're an awesome friend, take it and put it on your blog with pride 😈 (no pressure actually dfghh)

Awww, the sweetest ask ever. I hope we can continue to be friends, Sony.

[applestorms]

thinking about how near refers to light at the end of the series— not really as light yagami, not even really as kira, and not quite as L, but rather an amalgamation of titles: L-KIRA, a twisted mix of two personas, masks on top of masks. no longer a person but a series of letters, a filtered voice through a screen. a man who has built his entire life in the space between lies, who cannot let himself stop for a second without the weight of his own guilt, his sins, crushing him. regrets repressed because this is the only way it could ever be, it has to be worth it, it has to, it has to, because you can’t even bring yourself to consider what it all means otherwise.

i am a firm believer that light yagami, the son, the student, the average human person, dies at the same time that L does. at least at the beginning of the series he has some semblance of normalcy to hold himself to, the Serious Student persona that keeps him walking to and from school and talking to people and eating dinner with his family at home. how many times do we really see him going outside, post-L death? how often do we see him outside of some L-based police HQ, talking to people he isn’t trying to manipulate? really, it’s no wonder he falls so far, alienated as he is from the rest of humanity. when was the last time he breathed long enough to remember what the sky looks like? hugged his mom, laughed with his sister? did he ever visit his father’s grave? does he remember what the breeze smells like? was he ever really happy? did he deny himself his only chance?

at least in the case of L and near the isolation feels intentional, a preferable choice, carefully and logically considered for all the pros and cons. light never asked for the position he fell into, that fell upon him, that he created for himself. he denies the death note being a curse, but it’s not like he could ever admit it if it was.

light’s story arc in death note really feels like a tragedy to me, specifically in the sense that he never really gets the chance to change. on a plot level this is true, much of the second half of the story post-L death is light utilizing the exact same strategies as before (taking away his ownership of the DN to Strategize, romancing a woman he doesn’t care for to use her, fighting a snarky troll of a super genius hiding behind a letter whose real name & face he cannot find), but it’s true on an emotional level too. light never really gets to grow up, he never gets the chance to truly question his ideals or goals without the world he’s built by himself crashing down around him.

i keep thinking back to the significance of matsuda asking him about his dad, how he could drag him to his death for the sake of all of this. light’s response, so truthful in its desperation, really sums it all up: he died for a reason. KIRA has to win, or his dad died for nothing. he cannot face the idea that he caused his own father’s death, so KIRA must be justice. there is no other alternative. KIRA is god, or light yagami killed his own father for a fairytale.

really, it’s so fitting that his name uses the kanji for moon. moonlight— not originating from the moon itself but a reflection, of something brighter, greater, more powerful than he could ever be. light dies the same way as every other criminal he passed his judgement upon, on his knees and desperate, pathetic, begging for life even as he knows he is doomed to the same fate of nothingness that he granted to everybody else. godhood denied. he said it himself, that he could never be anything more than a human, but somewhere in the fog he lost track of the person he once was. and it’s near’s cruelest observation that stands out the most to me in that final scene— that he never really had to be this. he could’ve stopped at any point, felt his guilt, paid his regrets, and moved on with his humanity still intact. light has spent far too long repressing and denying to ever consider that an option anymore— but there was still room for sympathy for the 17 year old kid who killed without thinking, long before he built up such a dedicated palace of lies to justify his actions and hide away his guilt.

L-KIRA dies on the floor of a dirty, abandoned building, surrounded by the people he spent years manipulating and lying to and betraying. light yagami dies in a helicopter, locked and chained to his only closest equal, holding a notebook that he would use to sound the death knell of his own fate and wearing his father’s gifted watch.

Can you tell who my favorite character is right now...

[shkika]

I'm literally buzzing with excitement for the Wind comic thing :> I've been coming up with my own theories of what it could hold, and even making a video based on those theories! Tho, it'll take some time to finish XD It's like...A big project. Love your works!

This ask made me so happy I blacked out and this appeared on my screen.

I have the comic planned and sketched out with placeholder dialogue between the rodent sisters I just need to finalize it when I can!

[konjkitkatty]

I wanted to give you these because you're awesome and your art is awesome and cool and wicked and sick and other synonyms for cool

Thank you for producing peak fiction for me to relentlessly devour like a parasite <3

this will keep me and my people fed for centuries!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm back with another request favorite writer 😼, i was wondering if you could do Sun n Moon/Reader who's the daycare manager.

Essentially they help tidy, manage schedules, supplies, ect???

(sorry for not leaving more notes on your posts, tumblr doesn't show me ur stuff often 😭😭)

A/N: Hiii thank you so much for your kind words and patience?? My motivation has been on the floor but I'm trying to make it work somehow! Anyway, here is some mildly-annoying-coworkers to friends (to lovers) for your heart! :D

Sun & Moon x daycare manager!reader relationship headcanons

Please reblog this post! Likes make posts die :(

Masterlist

When you first got hired as the Daycare manager, you work was... Well.... Tough

To say the least.

Sun's sassy attitude and constant micro-aggressions were really getting to your nerves

And Moon.....

Well

Let's say you sometimes wondered if he saw you as his boss or his toy

He WILL jest around and stare at you while chuckling instead of following your commmands

Both of them don't really like the idea of having a human supervising them

I mean they're doing a super neat job on their own!! They don't need you!! Why would management send you here?!?

But surprisingly, instead of quitting

You actively try to work with them.

Unexpected I know.

You're not just bossing them around and yelling when they don't do what you want!!

You actually communicate with them to explain the goal of your missions and ask for their ideas when they refuse to do things your way!!

Okay to be honest how it ends up working out is truly a mystery to you

But after a while of almost constant bargaining

Welp the bargaining starts to lessen.

They do the activities you prepared instead of announcing a completely different unrelated thing to the kids

They don't argue as much about the schedule for naptimes

Hell, you can finally catch a fucking break

Of course you let them know how much you're thankful to them for agreeing with stuff (finally)

Sun also starts to get a little less mean, thankfully

You're greater at your job than he thought you'd be!! Different than the managers they had before, for sure, but it's a good thing!! You actually adapt your work and the schedule for them, and not despite them!!

He might start to take a liking for you

After a long while

I mean you truly are the first human handler to not treat them as objects

So of course it takes time for them to trust you

But Sun eventually does because he's just too much of a sweetheart

Moon just... Teases you a bit less. If that means anything.

(it does)

Or at least it's not mean teasing anymore

He's still a Creature™️ tho

Sun still acts confident and almost cocky at times, but it's not passive-agressive anymore

He can even appear charming at times, now that his jokes and remarks aren't meant to make you quit your job

And of course both argue from time to time

Or well, show their dislike of your commands in their own ways I guess

Their "own ways" being that Moon crawls up to the ceiling and sits in a corner upside-down to pout

And Sun just outright refuses to execute whatever you told him to do (and WILL get snappy if you insist)

The trips at Parts N Service are the worst, but you manage to get them down there two times out of three

But overall your relationship with the both of them is getting better and better everyday!

And you genuinely feel so glad the day they give you a friendship drawing!! You're officially their friend now!!

You almost teared up, but no one needs to know that

And then, they gave you another one

And another one

And MANY other ones

And plenty of them both holding your hands

Overtime, you became their bestest friend!!

Who could have thought you would end up being so close!!

Well you, at least, didn't expect it

Not that you're complaining!

You had to admit you grew VERY attached to them too

But oh boy was this development unexpected.

[mapicccc]

if they (empire and co) lose today it's just gonna be like. man. because they don't even Lose. the other team isn't Gaining anything, and everything will just reset to how it was last week. the stakes are all built up on how much effort they've put into this, but bandits haven't done anything, there's no reason for anyone to want them to win. it's so weird to examine from a storytelling perspective when it's improv though lolz. Just something will Need to change if they fail this time

[azulsluver]

I know the request is not open but I was wondering what happen if everyone and also Yuu graduate (if Yuu even able to) I mean- sure Yuu be dealing hard time even more if they live on the street while finding a job but at least they don’t have see to everyone again since everyone finish school and is now living far away from them right? Right?

Crowley would be a horrible person if he wasn’t financially helping you, it’s the reasonable thing to do if you’re not able to find a way home.

This can go different ways, I usually put reader in a situation where Crowley paid for your place to stay on Sage island, you’ll have to learn to communicate and socialize with other people to grow a reputation. Getting a job is important, even if you have no background weird things always happen in Twisted Wonderland so I doubt they won’t let it slide. But I do have another route that can go dark, you’re an entirely different person in their world, some form of government will be involved where they would take you in and (experiment? Help you perhaps, or even try to find a way to get to your world for not so good reasons.) kinda like an alien to em.

Buuutt since this blog covers other themes, I can see the royals taking you home with them. Especially Malleus. Offering you a place to stay with food and necessities that’ll put Crowley to shame. It’s paradise minus the fact they won’t let you flee the country or go anywhere else without their supervision.

For you staying at Sage island I do see Ace, Deuce, Jack, and Epel visiting you. Others can in persuade to woo you after their failed attempts at NRC (meaning they weren’t as loco). They’ll want you in their lives because you’re extraordinary, understand someone from a whole different universe is worth hanging out with. You’ll want to get to know them more (which caused an obsession) and eventually— fall in love.

Also, phones are a thing. Even if it’ll feel a little lonely, everyone is so busy with their lives, you’ll always be on someone’s mind that they take the time and day to run through that mirror to see you again.

Doing an art competition this weekend where I paint in front of an audience.... I literally only found out I'm in it YESTERDAY and I am so out of practice with acrylic. I might be cooked but here's my sketch.....

[joojdraws]

You know you *really* love a character once you have a bodypillow of them... Here he is... MY RAROLD BODYPILLOW!! Beautifully drawn by my friend @rockabillybun!! I am so happy to have him!! He turned out SO GREAT!! wowie!! 😻🌽💖

[w0wiie]

I think it’s a neat feature that you can “follow” tags on tumblr. I don’t remember if this was ever a feature before, but it’s new to me. And I think it’s cool

proceeds to follow every sonic-related tag

[mokagachas]

musing on ho'olheyak she's such a wonderfully interestingly tragic character. shes a victim of cycles and cycles of generational abuse and torture that have resulted in her race being slowly driven to extinction and her actions are such an interesting and unusual ( but realistic ) take on someone who is the culmination of all this centuries old trauma that shes had heaped onto her... shes so neat! wowie!

[two-crows]

more of these guyssss.. even if bps the supposed demon in this dynamic no matter what i feel like ricks gonna be more impish

[pansetta]

I was watching Impulse's pov because I heard a lot of good things (the editing was so good) and just-

Skizz: So here's the deal, I really wanna blow somebody up!

Impulse: Why don't you just do it?

Skizz: Because I can't kill any yellows and there's lots of yellows down there.

Impulse: What do you mean? (places tnt) What do you mean you can't? (sets off the tnt down below)

DUDE THAT MOMENT GAVE ME CHILLS LIKE HELLO??? THE WAY HE ASKS IN THAT "INNOCENT" SORT OF TONE??? And just Skizz's reaction upon immediately realizing what's going on and why Impulse is acting like that. That whole thing was just so good what

[nonexistent-tales]

In Case You Don't Live Forever by Ben Platt is such a Ryoji song, I just want to write about it to explore the meanings I have connected for practice. Thought I would share. Contains spoilers for Persona 3.

Youtube link | Spotify link

You put all your faith in my dreams You gave me the world that I wanted What did I do to deserve you? I follow your steps with my feet I walk on the road that you started I need you to know that I heard you, every word

Ryoji is the part of Death that appeared after Pharos formed from being inside the main character (Going to use Minato for this writing). The difference between Pharos and Ryoji is a big in the since that Ryoji is Pharos' desire to learn more about bonds, most importantly love.

This all started because we know that Ryoji is Minato's foil in the since of his view on the world. Ryoji is the part, or is the part that Minato lacks in the beginning, that loves the world. As someone who has experienced depression, and once saw the world in a nihilistic view. I subconsciously did not want to view the world that way, nor be that depressed. That is why sometimes I will see Ryoji as the subconscious part of Minato that wanted to live. Deep down Ryoji knew that Minato wanted to view the world in a better light, and walked down that path that Minato believed he no longer had.

I've waited way too long to say Everything you mean to me

This lyric is simple, throughout the whole game that Ryoji was there. He wanted to tell Minato how much he meant to him. At first Ryoji didn't know that it was love, as he was trying to figure out the steps of love himself. But when he did, he struggled multiple times to tell Minato those true words. (Though, it is clear that this is due to the fact that they share the same genders, as Ryoji has a romance route with Kotone)

In case you don’t live forever, let me tell you now I love you more than you'll ever wrap your head around In case you don't live forever, let me tell you the truth I’m everything that I am because of you

Another simple part to explain. The human part of Death, Ryoji, loves Minato. Ryoji is human because of Minato. Without being trapped within the main protag, Ryoji wouldn't exist. The other, non bolded parts fits but I am going to explain that part later on.

I, I've carried this song in my mind Listen, it's echoing in me But I haven't helped you to hear it We, we've only got so much time I'm pretty sure it would kill me If you didn't know the pieces of me are pieces of you

There are multiple parts of the first few lines. In Reload, Ryoji literally has a song in his mind that he wished for Minato to hear. At first the song wasn't much (first visit), but later (12/1) on he called Minato over to show him the completed song, because he wanted him to hear it. He wanted to show Minato the song because he had a feeling that he didn't have much time left. That he needed to tell Minato something.

"How do I put this...? I suddenly just got this feeling that I'm running out of time... And... I felt like I had to see you. I had to talk to you."

Ryoji desperately wanted to tell Minato that he loved him, and the easiest way was to tell him through song. As he only started to learn what love was, the words were not able to come out of his mouth in time.

I've waited way too long to say Everything you mean to me

In case you don’t live forever, let me tell you now I love you more than you’ll ever wrap your head around In case you don't live forever, let me tell you the truth I’m everything that I am because of you

Repeated lyrics.

I have a hero whenever I need one I just look up to you and I see one I'm a man 'cause you taught me to be one

First, I am gonna talk about the last line, I mentioned this before, in the first part, but Death was taught to be a human because of Minato. Second, Minato continues to make Ryoji feel human. While Ryoji attempts to escape this looming threat he knows is subconsciously there, he attempts to escape it through forming bonds with the main cast. Junpei, and mainly Minato. Maybe if he is human, he wouldn't have to be the harbinger of the end. A fate that he cannot escape.

As well, at 12/3, while Ryoji doesn't believe they can win against Nyx. He still tells Minato that if anyone can do the unthinkable, it is them.

In case you don't live forever, let me tell you now I love you more than you’ll ever wrap your head around In case you don't live forever, let me tell you the truth I'm everything that I am

Repeated lyrics (Mostly), but I wanted to talk about the difference between Ryoji not knowing there is going to be the end of the world, VS when he did. This part I imagined him knowing that the world is going to end.

This part is focused on 12/31, when Ryoji visited Minato in his room for the decision to kill him or not. Ryoji knows (well really believes) that the world will end no matter what. He believes killing him is the right decision because "More than anything, I don't want to see you suffer. After all, you're someone very special to me" Ryoji loves Minato, and extension Death loves Minato. He loves Minato in a way that Minato would never be able to wrap his head around.

The part that makes it clear to me that Death loved Minato as well, because a part of Death wanted to return as Ryoji. "I have this feeling like... I always wanted to see you again." Death cannot go back to just being death, Ryoji (and Pharos) is now a permanent part of Death because of Minato.

Whoa, whoa In case you don't live forever, let me tell you the truth As long as I'm here as I am, so are you

In the end, Minato does not live forever. He sacrifices his soul to seal away Nyx. Yet. Yet a part of him lives on within Ryoji, lives within Death itself. The very part of him that made Death human. A part that Death cannot get rid of. They live on forever, together.

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

Anyways, I could probably go back and recheck things but I just want to make it clear that I haven't done that and this was something just for fun. My pure feelings on this all. I love connecting songs to characters, and I really do love Ryoji along with the ships with him and the main protags. If you read I hope you enjoyed!

Also I would love to hear what songs people connect to these characters (Doesn't have to be Ryoji or Ryomina)
