SAY IT WITH ME:
FEMALE CHARACTERS CAN BE WARRIORS AND FEMININE
MALE CHARACTERS CAN BE SMART AND MASCULINE
BEING BOTH IS NOT A "FLAW" WHERE ONE NEEDS TO BE REMOVED
IT'S CALLED "COMPLEXITY"
#i won't tag it#but#HECK if i wanted to chuck episode 5 out my window and then run it over with a car#i mean these issues have definitely been hinted at before ep 5 but that one just went ALL IN#i knew from 3 and 4 what they would probably do with hakoda but GOSH am i bitter about it#i swear if they don't walk this back somehow and make hakoda a bad overbearing dad or whatever i'm gonna riot#and katara's whole 'you know i'm not good at this [womanly] type of stuff' NO SCREW YOU WHOEVER INCLUDED THAT#WHY#if you want a female character that rejects the stereotypes of femininity you'll get one in season 2 gosh DANG IT#you don't need to try and force katara into that role#sokka wanting to use his brain AND fight well is not a flaw#katara wanting to use her waterbending to fight AND knowing how to sew is not a flaw#OH i hate this#i hate this so much#i can understand the need to change story elements to work better in a different format#i don't think they're always doing that WELL but i can understand the need for it#but i will never understand why they felt the need to butcher characters' personalities#again some things won't transfer well i get it i really REALLY do#it's like with sanji in opla how he had to be toned down - that makes sense for a live action adaptation#just removing things simply for the sake of removing them? no just no#'updated for modern audiences' has become a curse to my ears i swear because it always means the same thing#'we're going to remove all complexity and make it as one note as possible so we don't offend anyone'#there was nothing wrong with katara or sokka or aang or anyone else that they needed 'updating' yall are just close-minded#ok rant over just REALLY needed to get that out...

Ed-Sona 5: An Ed is Born
decided to do an ed-sona of my favorite episode, “An Ed is Born”. Very long, seven pages.
===
[Sojiro is crawling along the sidewalk, sniffing as he goes. He crawls over Mishima.] Mishima: "Hiya, Sojiro! What'cha doing there, guy?" Sojiro: "Silence! I must brood." [Sojiro follows the trail to Kamoshida's house, which he enters, still crawling. He comes to the basement steps and falls down them. He looks through a keyhole into Kamoshida's room. Inside, Kamoshida has his bathtub filled with water and Morgana wearing a diving mask is floating in it.] Madarame: [worried] "Kamoshida, this is so wrong! Sojiro's sure to discover his cat is missing!" [Sojiro enters.] Kamoshida: [to Morgana while he holds a hula hoop] "Here we go! Jump! You there, upsy-daisy!" [Sojiro sees Kamoshida with Morgana and gets mad.] Kamoshida: "Uhh...I think you have to go home now..." Madarame: "Please excuse Kamoshida, he meant-" Sojiro: [motioning for Madarame to stop, then, pleasantly] "Let me understand this. I suppose disgracing me is okay to you, Suguru-boy. Walking off with my cat like a fine howdy-do?" Kamoshida: "It was his idea, Sojiro. As he wanted to be the best cat he could be! Bless his cute little face." [Kamoshida suddenly notices Junya outside of his window, pushing a crate.] Sojiro: "Is that so, Suguru-boy?" [angry] YOU HAVE SQUEEZED AN ORANGE RIND IN THE EYE OF SOJIRO! RETURN THE CAT, OR I WILL-" [Sojiro gets hit by a crate flying down the stairs. The impact sends Sojiro flying out the basement window.] Kamoshida: "That concludes our lessons for today! Ta Ta! Same time tomorrow!" [Morgana exits by virtue of a ski pole leading to a window.] Junya: [coming down the stairs] "Hey guys, look at what my brother sent me! That big lug." Madarame: "Your brother sent you this?" Kamoshida: "I think his brother sent it to him, Madarame." Junya: "Check it out! I bet it's a car or something." Madarame: [reading the crate's label] "Why, this seems to be addressed to a 'Pipsqueak,' Junya. A pet name for his baby brother, I assume?" [Kamoshida and Madarame giggle.] Junya: "Yeah, so? That means head honcho in our house. Why else would he send me the key to a new truck?" [Junya holds up a pacifier. Kamoshida and Madarame laugh.] Junya: [realizing] "This is baby stuff! What's he think I am, a two year old?!" [He pulls out a rattle and shakes it.] Kamoshida: "Cool." [Junya chucks the rattle offscreen. Kamoshida runs after it.] Junya: [turning to the chuckling Madarame] "What are you lookin' at?" Madarame: [still giggling] "I'm sorry, Junya, but don't you think it's rather amusing that your brother still thinks of you as his baby brother?" Junya: [angry] "No! I HATE being a baby brother!" Madarame: [rolling his eyes] "OK, then." Kamoshida: [grabbing his friends] "Listen." [He shakes the rattle.] Junya: [getting an idea] "Hold your horses! I'll just show him how big I've gotten. Kamoshida, take me to the mailbox, pronto!" [Junya seals himself in the crate and Kamoshida carries him upstairs] Kamoshida: "Gotcha, Junya! Whoa, right over my head." Madarame: "Wouldn't it be easier just to mail a letter describing yourself, Junya?" [Kamoshida loses his balance on the top of the stairs and falls down with the crate crashing back down into the basement, bursting Junya out] "Why, if I were you, I'd write a book, a biography of sorts." Junya: "You don't get out much, do ya?" Kamoshida: "If I were me, I would make a home movie." Junya: "Kamoshida, that's it! We'll make a home movie! Madarame, you're the cameraman." Madarame: "But Junya, we don't have a-" Junya: "I'll be the exec. producer, exec. director, exec. writer and of course, the star." [In the background, Kamoshida reaches for something in his dryer] Madarame: "We can't shoot a movie without-" Junya: "Kamoshida can be...Kamoshida. We'll show my brother that Junya's all grown up!" Madarame: "You're forgetting something, Junya! We need a-" Kamoshida: [pulling a camcorder from his dryer and tossing it to Madarame] "Camera, static free." Madarame: "Why do you keep a camera in your dryer, Kamoshida?" Kamoshida: [oblivious] "What?" Junya: "There you have it." Madarame: "Well, we do have a camera." Junya: "Let's make a movie!" Kamoshida: "Can I lick the bowl?" Madarame: [trying to work the camera] "Kamoshida, do you have a manual for this?" Kamoshida: "Somewhere." === [Madarame is recording. A chair is sitting in Junya's driveway. Bags of money surround it.] Junya: [flying in out of nowhere onto the chair, wearing a mustache] "Hiya, bro! What's up? It's me, Junya, all grown up and livin' the life. Who'd have thought, huh? Check out my mustache." Madarame: "OK, cut. Uhh, we'll need to get a close up, Junya." Junya: "Um, how was that?"
[Madarame has moved in close.] Junya: "This thing's giving me a rash." Madarame: "Action!" Junya: "Looks like I inherited your genes for the face fur, huh bro? And you know what?"
[Madarame is back to his first position.] Junya: "Now?" Madarame: "Action." Junya: "And you know what? I'm loaded. Been investing for years; real estates, stocks, bonds. I've even bought me a couple of planets! Yep, already own Saturn and Pluto." [Madarame turns the camera on Kamoshida, who is sticking yen signs on trash bags.] Madarame: [sarcastic] "Oh, come now, Junya." Kamoshida: "Boy, being rich really stinks." [He throws one of the bags towards Junya's pile.] Junya: [turning the camera back to him] "What the heck are you doing?! Don't film that!" Madarame: [as Junya's mustache falls off] "Sorry, Junya; the planet baron story threw me off." Junya: "Cut, cut! How's my brother supposed to think I'm cool when you guys keep–" [Kamoshida shakes his head. It sounds like the rattle.] ===
[The three are walking along the sidewalk.] Madarame: "Action." Junya: "Unlike myself, the old neighborhood's still the same as you left it, bro. Hey, did I tell ya? I'm mayor now! Right, Kamoshida?" Kamoshida: [seeing Ren ride past] "Hi, Ren!" Junya: [stopping at a hydrant] "See that loser? That's Ren." [Ren appears behind Junya.] "He's the neighborhood dork. I have to slap him around every now and then, just to remind him who's boss." Madarame: "Junya..." Ren: "Neighborhood dork, huh?" [He wedgies Junya, pulling the underwear over the back of his bike.] "Hey, Madara-Dork! You getting this?" Junya: [trying to act cool] "He collects underwear and gives it to the poor." [Ren rides off, dragging Junya's underwear along. Junya grabs the hydrant to keep from being pulled off.] "Pretty stupid, huh bro?" [The tension becomes too great, and Junya is pulled away from the hydrant.] "Help!"
Junya: [being dragged] "SLOW DOWN, REN! I WAS JUST KIDDING! STOP! PLEASE!" [Junya's underwear snaps and he bounces on the road before landing in a heap.] Kamoshida: "Look at him bounce, Junya's brother!" Madarame: [worried] "Junya, are you all right?!"
Kamoshida: [offering Junya the rattle] "Boy, Junya! You deserve a shake for that." [Junya grabs the rattle from Kamoshida and throws it to the ground. He leaps on it in an attempt to destroy it, but instead slips on it and falls over.] Madarame: [sarcastic] "I must say, if I were your brother, I'd be very impressed." ===
[The filming has moved to the park. Madarame searches for his actors.] Madarame: [scared] "Junya, where are you?" Junya: "Over here, Spielberg." Madarame: [filming him] "There you are." Ryuji: "Race you to the swings, Ann!" Junya: "Hey, bro! Remember how you used to own the playground? Well, it's mine now. Check this out." Ann: "Outta the way, horse head! We wanna play on the swings!" Junya: "You know the drill: Cough up some dough, then swing." Ann: [outraged] "What'd you say?!" Madarame: "Ok, cut! Hold your positions please."
[Madarame positions the two new additions to the cast.] Madarame: "Ready, now. Oh, Ryuji, a little closer if you will. Fine. And cue set-" [Ann punches the camera and knocks it out of Madarame's hands. It falls on the ground and begins recording.] Madarame: [hurrying to pick it up] "Oh, dear." Ann: "Kamoshida! Get your stupid friends out of the way!" [Madarame picks up the camera and begins filming again.] Junya: "No use pleading for mercy, Ann. Kamoshida obeys only his supreme leader. That's me, bro." Kamoshida: "OK, Ann!" [Kamoshida grabs Junya.] Junya: "Umm...Kamoshida here is showing Ann what I'll do to her if she doesn't take a hiKE!!!" [Kamoshida throws Junya onto the swing-set pole. Junya's body elongates and wraps around it.] Kamoshida: "There you go, darling! Swing to your heart's content." Madarame: "Okay, people! A big smile for Junya's brother!" [Ann, pleased, complies with the director's request.] ===
[The three are on the street again. Madarame and Junya are on the sidewalk, despondently trying to think of something that will save the movie. Kamoshida is playing with the camcorder.] Kamoshida: "Hello, my name is Kamoshida." [He licks the camera's lens.] Junya: "Running out of ideas, Madarame. Think of something that'll make me look good." Madarame: [seeing Kamoshida] "Kamoshida, you be careful with that!" [no longer caring] "Oh, what do I care? It's his camera." Kamoshida: "Man the helms! Dive! Dive!" [Kamoshida swallows the camera. The screen goes black.] Madarame: "Kamoshida, what have you done? Open it! Open it!" [Kamoshida opens his mouth. The camera is positioned in his garbage filled stomach at such an angle that we can see Madarame, wearing surgical gloves.] "You should know better than to eat the camera. Just think what it will do to your digestive tract!" [Madarame reaches inside and takes the camera out.] Kamoshida: "Boy, I can't wait to see that part, Madarame." Madarame: "Yes, well, let's not and say we did, Kamoshida." Junya: "Come on, come on! I've got an impression to make here, remember?" [The three hear Kawakami humming. They look across the street and see her painting her nails.] Madarame: "Oh, my." Junya: [sweating on camera] "Hey look, it's my girlfriend, painting her nails for me. I think I'll go give her the pleasure of my company." [Junya approaches her gingerly. He sits on the curb a few feet away and slowly eases himself over to her side. He tries to put his arm around her; at this point, Kawakami notices him, and knocks him into a fire hydrant. Kawakami then notices the camera.] Kawakami: "Umm...Madarame, are you guys, like, making a movie or something?" Madarame: [tongue tied] "Kawakami...umm." Kamoshida: [focusing on the soaking Junya] "Not to worry, Junya's brother. I'll just dry him off!" Mishima: [appearing out of nowhere and snatching the camera] "Hey, buddy, what'cha got there? Is that a video camera?" Madarame: "Mishima, please! We're trying to make a movie." Mishima: "Back off! Hahahahahaha!" [He runs away.] Madarame: "Mishima, please!" Junya: [diving at Mishima] "Why, you little-!" Mishima: "Hahahaha–" [He gets hammered.] ===
[Madarame has the camera back. He focuses on Junya, who has finished burying Mishima. Junya sets down his shovel on Mishima's head and talks to the camera.] Junya: "He scares the birds away; what can I tell ya? Shall we continue with my charmed life?" [He looks offscreen.] "Well, what do you know? It's our international jet-setter, Sojiro." [Kamoshida comes onscreen, dressed in one of Sojiro's shirts, which has been pulled over his normal clothes. Kamoshida shakes the rattle.] Junya: "Hey, Sojiro! Tell my brother how important I am." [Junya notices the rattle and tosses it away.] Kamoshida: "I forget." [The rattle comes down offscreen and hits the real Sojiro, who is raking leaves, on the head. The three turn to see him shake his fist angrily.] Sojiro: "JUNYA-BOY!"
[Sojiro is chasing them. The camera catches only Kamoshida’s, Madarame’s and Junya's pounding feet with Sojiro chasing them down with a rake.] Sojiro: "Come back, cat thief!" Kamoshida, Madarame and Junya: "RUN AWAY!" ===
[The three have moved to the junkyard.] Madarame: "No backs to the camera please; it's rude, you know." Junya: "Shut up and roll. Remember this place, bro? The junkyard, your old hangout. All the kids are chicken to come here." [Kamoshida is shown looking around, scared. He clutches his rattle for protection.] Junya: "See? What'd I tell ya? But not me." Kamoshida: "Show yourself, mutant scamp laborer!" [He bangs on a wrecked car with the rattle.] Junya: "Yeah, uh...Kamoshida's just fixing my old car. It's not quite ready yet. Moving right along. You'll never guess what I'm building. It's an ultimate hard-boiled-egg-boiler. I've got big bucks invested in this gold mine." [Madarame cuts the camera. He starts again seconds later, from another angle.] Junya: "What?" Madarame: "Go on." Junya: "By simply tossing your-" [Madarame cuts the camera again. He moves to a new angle.] Junya: "–the combustion soon-" Madarame: "Look natural; stay with me." [Cuts again, new angle] Junya: "–uhh, thus rendering the egg-" [Madarame cuts the camera again and moves back to his original angle.] Junya: "–for all to enjoy." Madarame: "I'm creating dynamics, Junya." Junya: "Don't get arty on me, Madarame." [Junya opens the door to his boiler to show off the inside. He doesn't look in, and so doesn't see that Ohya, Lala and Chihaya are inside. Madarame and Kamoshida begin to shake.] Junya: "What are you doing?" Madarame: "C-C-CROSSROAD GIRLS!!!" Ohya, Lala and Chihaya: "Hiya, Junya!" [The Crossroad Girls pull Junya into the boiler. Kamoshida and Madarame try to pull him out.]
[Junya is half inside and half outside the hard-boiled-egg-boiler.] Kamoshida: "I gotcha, Junya!" Madarame: "Pull, Kamoshida!" Junya: "Get me out!" [Junya, covered in kiss marks, finally comes free, and he slams into the camera.] Kamoshida, Madarame and Junya: "RUN AWAY!" [Madarame picks up the camera and films as he runs. He turns around and takes a shot of the Crossroad Girls, who are waving at them.] Ohya: "We know where you live!" [Madarame tucks the camera into his arm so he can run better. The three' running feet are shown again.] Junya: "HELP ME! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" ===
[The filming has moved to Junya's room. Junya, clean of all kiss marks, lies on his bed, looking every bit the emperor, while cardboard cutouts mill about in his room.] Junya: "Hiya, bro! So anyways, here I am, all nice and safe in my cozy bachelor pad where all the losers show up to get my autograph. Yep, I'm that big, bro." [A bunch of the cardboard cutouts walk around, all being pulled by toy-trains.] Junya: "Look, it's Ren. The usual spot there, dork?" [He signs his name, then speaks for Ren, affecting an unnatural tone] "Sweet, Junya! You're cool, man." Madarame: [sure the charade won't fool anyone] "Oh, please." Junya: "And there's Mishima. Sign your shirt there, curly?" [Junya signs it. At that point, Kamoshida comes by, sprinkling cat food on the ground.] Kamoshida: "He’s hungry again, Junya!" [Junya grabs Kamoshida's neck.] Junya: [through gritted teeth] "So feed him over there!" [Sojiro is shown coming into the house in the background. He is sniffing the floor, following a trail.] Junya: "So, bro; as you can see, I'm a big shot now. No more beatin' up little Junya, hey, big brother?" [Sojiro stands beside Junya, waiting for the con-man to notice him.] Madarame: "Junya! Sojiro!" Junya: "Sojiro? Did I forget to sign Sojiro? There ya go, stretch." [Junya signs Sojiro's face. Sojiro looks miffed, but then becomes enraged.] Sojiro: [angry] "YOU HAVE VANDALIZED MY FACE, AND YOU HAVE-" [A duplicate of Sojiro comes by. Sojiro picks it up, revealing it to be a cardboard statue carried by Morgana.] Sojiro: "AND YOU HAVE STOLEN MY CAT YET AGAIN?!" [seeing Madarame filming] "Are you stealing my soul with your film box?!" Madarame: [nervous] "Why, of course not, Sojiro! What gave you that impression?" Sojiro: "That’s it! I’ve had enough!" Junya: "Wait, we can work this out!" [Punching sounds are heard and Junya is thrown into a wall, destroying some of the cardboard kids as he smashes through them. Morgana runs amuck.] Sojiro: "Return the cat!" Kamoshida: [running off] "WAAAAAAHHHH!" Sojiro: "RETURN HIM!" [Sojiro storms toward Kamoshida and Junya. Meanwhile, Morgana goes berserk and runs towards Madarame.] Madarame: "Shoo! Go away! Don't touch me!" [Madarame gets knocked over, and the camera falls to the floor. The rest of the scene is filmed from this angle.] Sojiro: "Stop, I must punish you!" Junya: "Mommy!" Madarame: "I think your brother's got the picture, Junya." Junya: "AAAAAAHHHHH!" [The camera's batteries die and the camera shuts off, effectively ending the movie.]

Chapter 2
Blending into the New Dimension
After that whole fiasco of waking up, passing out, then waking up once again, only to pass out again, then finally waking up and being able to stay awake, the Hokage (bless his heart) had allowed you to stay with him.
You had a small room to yourself, a couple of belongings that he had given you, such as clothes, a bed and a couple of small bits and pieces, and most importantly of all, your privacy. You lay, slumped on the comfy bed, staring angrily at the small black handbook. Unsurprisingly, step 3 of chapter 1 was 'Finding a Place to Stay.' 
Step 3 - Finding a Place to Stay
This will, most likely, be the hardest step to complete. Finding a place to stay is often difficult due to the fact that you are an anomaly. However, the best people to ask for a place to stay are in fact, no offence, old and single people. Especially women.
If you appeal to the motherly or fatherly side of people, you will increase your probability of surviving and therefore the success of your mission to saving valuable lives.
If you are without parental figures, or a guardian, in this new world it is probably best to befriend a few of the popular locals. This is mainly to create a bond between you and the place in which you have been dropped off at. Undoubtedly, you will get attached and most likely refer to them as your parental figures the longer you stay, but it is nicer to come back to a warm bed and friendly faces, than a cold house. Just a tip, by the way.
Handy Tip #4: If possible, try to find a temporary guardian who is not essential to the plot, as you may put them into danger just for harbouring a stranger.
Handy Tip #5: Find a temporary guardian who won't ask too many questions about your past, what you know etc.
You growled angrily, before grabbing your pillow and screaming into it. After letting out your pent up anger at your so called 'guardian angel' you returned to the notebook to quickly read through chapter 2: 'Blending Into your New Dimension'.
Step 4 - Assimilate the Culture
Take some time to learn about the cultural differences between this new world and the one you were previously in. It will take some time but by doing so, you can 'blend' into the crowd and not (as some people say) stick out like a sore thumb. Try to learn the culture from mature people/beings, it will help you understand what is acceptable and what is not, making your reputation credible and as a result, statements you will say in the future will be believable and trusted.
To do this, observe the every day lives of a few locals and try to pick up some slang that is appropriate for your age.
Handy Tip #6: Try to befriend the 'protagonist', i.e. the main character of the dimension you are in. Not only will you learn the culture quickly, but you will also be on good terms with the winning side and therefore have, "plot armour".
Note: Observing does not mean stalking.
Step three sounded easy enough, but step 4 made you want to rip out all the hair on your head, make a wig out of all that hair, then rip it out once again. You, a responsible 18 year old adult, have to be friends with an annoying 12 year old child?!
You glared at your reflection in the mirror, as one thing that Dara [you had revoked your guardian angel's right of formalities and respect] forgot to mention was that you had to live out the rest of the timeline starting from the age of 12. Which just means, that not only would you have to experience the beauty of puberty again, but you would have to deal with a bunch of other kids, who had not experienced puberty, experience puberty for the first time.
The sound of your door bursting open and a small child screaming, "I have you where I want you!"  Which was promptly followed by your body being tackled to the floor by an 8 year old boy. You sighed, as Konohamaru began laughing as he stood over your limp body.
You regretted not watching at least 10 episodes of Naruto when your friend had shown you the first episode. Heck, they would be laughing at your predicament right now, probably mocking you by cackling, 'Look at who's laughing now, [f.name]! Look at who's 'meaningless' hobby is suddenly super important!'
On the upside, one could call Konohamaru [the Hokage's grandson] your minion. Strangely, Konohamaru had taken an instant liking to you, following you everywhere (when possible) and trying to teach you the customs of Konoha. In return, you thought of him as a younger brother who you would kill and seriously maim people for.
Konohamaru was quiet, confused at your still body, edging closer bit by bit until he was close enough to poke you in the face with his finger. "Hey, [f.name]?"
As quick as lightening, well as quickly as your 'frail' 12 year old body would allow you, you leapt forth at Konohamaru with a playful growl. Instantly, he let out a loud squeal, giggling as you scooped him up in your arms. "Who has come forth? Who demands to speak to the beast?" You growled out, channelling your best lion-from-the-cave-of-wonders-in-Aladdin impression, squishing Konohamaru's cheeks playfully between your hands, as he laughed and squirmed in your grip.
Wriggling his way out of your hold, Konohamaru sprinted out of your room, laughing the entire time. Chuckling quietly, you shoved the small notebook safely into your pouch and chased after him, making weird dinosaur noises all the while.
        "Sir, can we really trust this [l.name] girl?"
The Hokage stared at Iruka blankly before replying, "I don't see why not?" 
Iruka looked baffled, his eyes wide, before he managed to stutter a comprehensible answer, "W-well, she could be a spy? Or even worse, a human weapon?!"
The Hokage lay one hand reassuringly onto Iruka's shoulder, "I know about your fears, but I need you to trust me when I say, she poses no harm for Konoha and its people. In fact, I truly believe she will be a formidable Shinobi."
Iruka only gave the Hokage a grim smile. Before jolting quickly as he realised, "Wait, Sir! Shinobi! Are you going to train her to be a Shinobi?! All the teams have already been finalised and they've already gone on their first few mission!"
Chuckling, the Hokage merely nodded his head, "Don't worry, Iruka. I know what I'm doing, she'll be ready to join a team, and I think I know which one I have in mind."
Dear Diary To Bob this weak-ass journal that I've decided to keep so I know that I won't go insane,
A few months have passed since I first came to this dimension. I found out I had a knack for fire-bending, or as good-old Gramps said, "Your chakra nature seems to be fire," whatever that means.
Gramps (something that I referred to the Hokage as since I decided that he would be my adopted guardian in this universe) had an Anbu member train me on simple hand to hand combat, weapon handling, as well as some simple jutsus. Jutsus which I immediately forgot right after the poor Anbu taught me. Sorry, but it's just takes too much time to remember those hand symbols. Also, I couldn't really do those jutsus anyway, so who cares.
And, if I was to be honest with the characters, I spent way too much time trying to be as cool as Azula or Toph from the TV series for someone who was trying to catch up to the other kids. 
My fire-bending skills was passable, my earth-bending tolerable, my water-bending skills were kind of there, and my air-bending skills were completely non-existent (which was pretty dumb considering that the main character of the fucking TV show was an air-bender, but whatever). Dara comes to speak with me in my dreams, which is a little weird, at least she's telling me how to control these weird-bending powers, Toph made earth-bending look so easy.
Konohamaru had shown me around the town and introduced me a few nice people in return for the stories I keep telling him. It won't be long before I run out of Disney plots to talk about. Other than that, I kept eating out at this ramen place which will not only put a dent in my wallet but also my health, something I'm not ashamed of, by the way. It's not my fault that their food is so god dang delicious. I also learnt a few customs, like how it's apparently "offensive" to fling oneself out of windows in the hope that I can air-bend.
Anyway, haven't met the main character yet, but I found that the notebook also has pages on the synopsis of this show in the back, so guess who's becoming a fortune teller?
I am, bitch.
Talking about the future, and the main character, the Hokage said he was going to have me skip the "graduation exam" (which sounds very important) and chuck me onto a team already. I'm supposed to meet them later today, so hopefully they all turn out to be, at the very least, tolerable, and considering my situation they'll probably be the main characters too.
Great.
Sighing, I closed the small journal that I was given by the Hokage and promptly hid it in the underwear drawer of my dresser. I cannot deny that I have gotten used to this new life of mine, training and learning new things every day. Amazingly, I haven't gotten anyone killed or seriously injured yet, which is probably a testament of my ability to not give a single fuck, but who knows?
Getting up and stretching my legs slowly, I wondered out of my room and found myself face to face with good-ol' gramps.
"Are you ready to meet them, [f.name]?" 
Air-bending skills: 3.4 out of 10
Number of fucks given: At least 1
Probability of survival: 87.63%

I had a lot of dreams last night, i only remember snippets of each of them. In one dream, i became the mother of 3 boys, all of them under the age of 10, the youngest being like 3y.o. whose name was Tobies, but i called him Tobi for short and he was really attatched to me. In the same dream my little house caught on fire and my kids were in there, and i fought tooth an nail to put out the fire and succeeded, they were all fine.
In other dream I dreamt about puppies, but i get the feeling they were somehow realted to my dogs JoJo and Caesar.
In another dream i was in a world similar to BHNA, but quirks were only 50% of the population and they weren't called quirks but something else. I was another person, a 17 y.o. boy, i lived a dorm house with 5 roomates of all ages, and i was friends with other hero students from other dorms, they came to chill a lot. But one specific friend, who looked like someone i used to know in real life, had been mossing for a couple of days and i found her sitting in an attic (cant remember whose attic lmao). Apparently sometimes people's powers would mutate or become unstable, so then they would have to decide to either work through it and hope it doesnt get worse or drink what we called the Cure. My friend was fretting over that and she opened up to me about some stuff, i can only remember her saying she knew morse code because of her dad, and i told her that she was super smart she could do whatever she wanted, but she mad and said "Ukui is also smart. Being smart isn't special, I want to stand out from everyone." Then I told her she just take the Cure then, and she just looked at me funny before she said "You don't know what the Cure really does huh?" And i admitted i didnt so she explained the cure is a tea you drink, and if drank at an early rate, it could get rid of the mutated part of your power, but if you waited too long like she did, it could possibly take away all of her power because it's mutated beyond recognition, and she basically was afraid to be "quirkless" because she wanted to be a hero.
In another dream it was basically an episode of Miraculous Ladybug in which Chloe didn't want to give up the items the akuma took over, so Marinette had to trick her into giving it back by being Marinette and going along with Chloe's antics until she found the chance to turn back into Ladybug and take the items away from Chloe.
In other dream (the longest dream)I had to go to a mechanic, but there was this hand devise that tells you what your car needs simply by putting in you car's code. It told me i needed something hut the price was out of my budget so I had to leave, on my way back home i witnissed a car crash, nothing too bad, but omg the roads were in chaos no one was driving within their lanes, and I managed to get by. A couple minutes later i see a girl my age frantically running down the street and something compelled me to slow down and lower my window and ask her if she needed a ride, because she looked like she was running late i wouldnt mind at all. She took up my offer and I told her where to. Apparently she wanted to go to Russia to see this performing group. It occured to me in that moment, a moment of lucidity, how the heck did she plan to run to russia lmao. Anyways, apparently we were in France so not as impossible but still impossible. For whatever reason I had to go home for something and she came along. She snooped around my house in child like innocence, taking note that I had a lot of rooms, and I remember passing one of the rooms and thinking to myself "that used to be a closet, I guess they remodeled it into a room for Ukui." So i guess my previous dream leaked into this one. Suddenly, my house was being broke into by that Russian group the girl wanted to see, and it turned out they found out we were trying to find them, and they thought I was the police and they hated the police because they were actually a Russian mafia, their acrobatic group was just a cover for them. They basically kidnapped me and the girl and we were talen to this school with people of all ages. It was like an army, so many child soldiers were marching in perfect lines in either to stances: both hands behind your back or one hand behind your back and the other saluting. I took the latter stance and was force to get into formation. I passed a line of 7 y.o.s on stand by, all of which saluted to me and i saluted back because i was afraid of them, because they didnt look normal. They had wide grins full of sharp teeth bruh. Anyways, all the lines went onto a field where there was a circle of like 30 chairs. Each formation line had an adult btw, i was suddenly now like 19 y.o., and one of the adults explained that were going to be playing musical chairs. And i remember looking on incredulously because theres only 30 chairs and hundreds of kids, but when two kids ran forward to claim a chair, so did I because I didnt want to find out what would happen if I didnt get a chair. However, when I sat down, my line marched backwards and thw guy waa still talking so I was like "oh shit it wasnt start time yet" so I tried to run back to my line, but I only took five steps before I realized it was a ploy, other groups were moving too, they were coming up with strategies, so i tried running back to my chair, but the adult was all "lol nope you lost your seat already". And so I turned back around and realized that the adults purpose put 30 chairs because they want to filter out the weak ones. The inly wait to get a chair back is to kill each other. So many of the kids had sharp teeth, so the best way to attack was literally lunging at your opponent and tearing their throat open and/or eating them. I didn't have sharp teeth, and I didn't have weapons, so I had to dodge so many kids and throw them off my if they managed to geab me. My mind was racing, trying to figure out how im going to survive this, when i noticed that the adults were just standing around like nothing, and I remember thinking as I pulled off a snapping kid, "They didn't say any rules against killing the adults," before chucking the little canable child at one of the adult's faces. And that's when I woke up.
