Reverse Au pt. 1
Reverse! Dr. Stone AU where Xeno and Senku are ageswapped and roleswapped, so Xeno becomes the plucky teen genius and Senku is the evil mad scientist.
This is one of my darker aus but the people in the discord server really liked it so I figure why not port it to tumblr
PART 1: The Main Players
Xeno Houston Wingfield
A 15 year old science prodigy whose mentor Dr. Ishigami of JAXA had recruited to collect data on the stone sparrows before the day of petrification. Senku had told Xeno about one of the sparrows still being conscious, which Xeno relayed to Stanley. When the petri-beam appeared everyone had been in the auditorium at school for an assembly. Stanley spotted the light and realized what was happening, warning for everyone to stay awake as they all turned to stone. Reverse! Xeno is kindhearted and idealistic, hoping that he and his friends can save the world if they work together.
Stanley “Stan” Snyder
Reverse! Stanley is still pretty athletic, and is on their school’s track team. Snarky and clever, he’s not above making fun of Xeno, who he’s known for years. Despite it all, Stanley is a loyal friend and hard worker, leading the revived members of the sports teams as hunters and protectors of their little town, founded in what was formerly the location of San Francisco. The teens vote to name it Gator Town in honor of their high school mascot, but Stan hates it lmao
Brody Dudley
Reverse! Brody is 17 years old and well versed in mechanical skills as a result of his father owning a car shop. Logic would dictate that since canon Brody is a reasonable person who values life then Reverse!Brody would be the opposite, but this is my au and I don’t really want that to happen so his personality here is more easygoing.
Dr. Ishigami Senku
A 30 year old former rocket scientist at JAXA, Senku studied the stone sparrows before the petrification and was about to present his findings to a board of scientists when the green light appeared. Reverse! Senku is a mad scientist whose sole goal in life is the pursuit of knowledge, and he doesn’t care about hurting others if it means new discoveries. He is a harsh ruler, favoring those with valuable skills over all and leaving the rest to be cannon fodder and hard laborers. Reverse! Senku is also morbidly curious about what happens when you try to revive freshly broken statues, and quickly begins to experiment on them in unique and disturbing ways. After kidnapping Xeno he keeps him around, hoping the kid will eventually choose to join him as his apprentice.
Oki Taiju
Senku’s 30 year old childhood friend and his personal bodyguard. Reverse! Taiju is a stern, solemn man whose undying loyalty to Senku means he’ll do anything for him without question, and this Taiju doesn’t have any problems with hurting people or animals. He’s also incredibly dedicated to his wife, Yuzuriha, and extremely protective of both her and Senku. In the stone world he serves as Senku’s enforcer and Commander of his army.
Ogawa Yuzuriha
Senku and Taiju’s childhood friend and Taiju’s wife. Reverse! Yuzuriha was the 30 year old owner of Haute Couture Yuzuriha, a globally renowned clothing brand of her own design. Though she’s just as diligent and patient as her canon counterpart, this Yuzuriha is cutthroat and harsh, expecting perfection and not giving her workers any breaks - she doesn’t cut corners, but she won’t go easy on you. She carries a pair of large and deadly sharp fabric shears. Yuzuriha is incredibly loyal to Senku and a dedicated wife to Taiju. She is in charge of Crafts in Senku’s kingdom, keeping a strict work schedule and harshly punishing anyone who acts “lazy.”
#dr stone#dr. stone#dcst#fanfic#my writing#au#reverse au#ageswap au#roleswap au#character spoilers#manga spoilers#dcst manga spoilers#I actually think stan and xeno are like 34 or 35 but whatever

whatd u think of the latest chapter? 🥲
i dont have a whole lot of thoughts on it overall, it wasn’t very fun seeing certain characters get hurt this time around cause it felt a little more contrived than the previous deaths (esp with brody acting like his hand was forced)
i hope it at least means we get new petri scars for some who don’t have any though :/

As I was watching one of the games the other day I was wondering what players had been on certain teams for a long time, so I decided to look it up and compile some of that info here. Here is a list of the three longest-tenured players on every current playoff team’s roster (except Vegas because the team is only three years old). Please note that I organized this by the date that player made their NHL debut with the team, not how long they’ve been in the team’s system (because that would make this list a lot different). Bold names are the team’s captain, and italicized names are goalies. Please share this around, check out who on your team has been around the longest!

NHL 2021 Prediction: North Division
1. Toronto: see previous leafs centric post.
2. Vancouver: Canucks have strong pieces at every position, and Pettersson, Hughes, and Horvat are a serious top 3 players. Adding Schmidt really bolsters the D, Hamonic eases the loss of Tanev, while Holtby is not Markstrom at this point, a tandem with Demko seems good enough to keep the team going strong. I have questions about their F depth, but like last season a deadline deal could provide a big boost. Chatfield, Juolevi, and Rathbone could step up on the blueline as well.
3. Edmonton: The Oil have top tier talent, and probably their most complete forward group in decades. The emergence of Yamamoto really solidifies that before we consider how Turris, Kahun, and Puljujarvi fit in. Bear and Nurse are back as pair 1, while Barrie replaces an injured Klefbom. Really this group can improve beyond middle of the road if Bouchard and Jones can push into the top four. The real gamble lies in net, as Koskinen and Smith didn’t exactly impress last year. Goalies are pretty volatile, so maybe a younger player like Forsberg or Skinner could surprise. In all I would guess this will be a bigger obstacle for playoff success than regular season.
4. Montreal: Yes they had a strong bubble performance, no they otherwise wouldn’t have had a chance. Yes they improved this offseason, yes they are well rounded. I would say that having them 4th is a bold take if a huge group of people weren’t picking them as the best team in Canada. If Suzuki and Kotkaniemi continue their upward trajectory it gives them 3 really strong centres. I guess Josh Anderson could be a great add, but really I think Toffoli is the stronger and more cost effective option. The defence is deep and strong, Petry and Kulak are a great pair, Weber and whoever will be good, and Romanov brings a little flair to the additions, complimenting the beef of Edmunson and Chiarot who figure to pair with him. Obviously Price is Price and should get more rest with Allen in the fold.
5. Calgary: I find the flames pretty similar to the Habs, in that they are deep and well rounded at each position group. Markstrom should be their best goalie since Kipper and it’s pretty surprising to have them missing based on this alone. Losing Brodie hurts, although Andersson emerging softens that. Tanev is not someone I’m a huge fan of, although between these two, Giordano, Hanafin and potential for Valimaki or Kylington to assert themselves the D should be strong again. Moving Lindholm to centre, like Montreal, gives them 3 strong options in the middle, joining Monahan and Backlund. Tkachuk and Gaudreau help solidify strong lines, while giving good opportunities to Simon, Bennett, Dube, and Leivo to fit in nicely. There’s not a lot to pick from between these teams, so maybe it’s just the lingering taste of a down year for Gaudreau and Monahan that has me picking them on the outside.
6. Winnipeg: Stastny is back and fills an important role as 2 C that is much needed. The top 6 forwards are as good as anyones, and Copp and Lowry can definitely hold down a checking line. Hellebyuck had to win the Vezina last year to help mask their deficiencies on the blueline, and relying on him to do the same doesn’t provide room for error and will be costly. I do like some of their youth, like Samberg and Heinola, but relying on multiple of Niku, or Forbort, or Poolman, or even Demelo to big huge parts of your top 4 defencemen is not a recipe I’d trust.
7. Ottawa: The worst team on paper, sure, but with lots of young talented maybes, a decent goalie situation, as well as a few proper players like Tkachuk and Chabot, and the chance that other teams might fall apart or be wrought with injuries and there’s a non-zero chance the Sens might not finish last. Stutzle could be impactful right away, Brannstrom might be ready to play top 4 minutes and a young centre like Norris or Logan Brown could really change the outlook of this group. They probably need a top C prospect to really solidify a strong future but that might be all that stands in their way (at least prospect wise). Plus new logo and Jerseys look great.

Ο Bowie ήταν δεινός αναγνώστης, χανόταν μέσα στα βιβλία(λέγεται ότι προσπαθούσε να διαβάζει ένα βιβλίο την ημέρα) και είχε φροντίσει να ξεχωρίσει τα αγαπημένα του αναγνώ��ματα, τα οποία είδαν το φως της δημοσιότητας το 2013, στο πλαίσιο της έκθεσης «David Bowie Is» του Art Gallery στο Οντάριο του Καναδά. Οι επιμελητές Geoffrey Marsh και Victoria Broackes συνέλεξαν την λίστα των 100 αγαπημένων του βιβλίων, μια «περιπλάνηση» ανάμεσα σε κλασσικά μυθιστορήματα, περιοδικά, ιστορικούς τίτλους και σύγχρονα αναγνώσματα.
Αν τους ρίξετε μια ματιά θα δείτε πως δεν είχε κάποια ιδιαίτερη προτίμηση σε είδος. Στη λίστα μπορείτε να βρείτε Δάντη, Όργουελ, Κέρουακ, Τζούλιαν Μπαρνς, Κάφκα, Καμύ ακόμη και…Όμηρο.
