- - -

he had done it

Sasuke had left his home to seek more power.

He wasn't enough, he needed more power and he wasn't going to get it if he stayed with his teammates.

Sakura had reached out to him, she had begged him not to leave, he had a hard time saying no and that made him angry even though he didn't show it. Despite his annoyance, he wasn't going to take it out on her, Sakura wasn't to blame for all his misery, it was Itachi's, his older brother.

Sakura was his friend, a very close one.

'I'm not going to hurt her' Even if Sasuke wanted to, he couldn't hurt Sakura, perhaps because he inadvertently became very attached to her along with team seven. They were almost like family to him.

Family.

How bitter that word had become.

"Sakura..." Sasuke heard the pinkhead's soft gasp as he stepped up behind her.

'I'm not going to hurt her' before he knocked her out, he let her hear the last words that would be directed at her. After all, maybe this would be the last time they would see each other, that she would hear his voice… 'thanks for everything' was what he wanted to say, but instead he just came out with a bitter “thank you”, before knocking her out...

Sasuke couldn't leave her at her house, that would take a long time, so instead he left her soft body on a park bench, in his mind it was the least he could do.

The next morning Naruto arrived. Both fought in hand-to-hand combat, between punches, kicks and harsh words that were given, sasuke remembered his family.

The death that hurt him the most was of his beloved Mother. His Mom who was so affectionate and the one who was by his side. Oh, how much he missed her. And it was too bad that the last time he saw her was when she was lying dead on the cold floor next to her father. Perhaps remembering his Mother would not be so painful if his last memories of her were when she said goodbye to him, giving him his breakfast that same morning of the massacre.

The feelings were confused with his Dad, but if what his Mother said was true, then his Father loved him too much and Sasuke loved him too, that's why he always tried to be the son his father would have wanted, fearing disappointing him even though he wasn't here anymore, Sasuke would always have that fear.

What hurt him the most was Itachi, he was his world and he was also the one who destroyed him until he did it in small pieces. Sasuke hated himself on the darkest nights when he missed his presence, and even so, despite declaring and swearing that he hated his brother, he had that feeling of hesitation in killing him, perhaps because if he did, he would be left alone

Naruto couldn't and never could understand him and his pain. How dare he compare his pain with his? Naruto was inept, a fool, a loser who was born with nothing.

And he wasn't going to leave without letting him know first.

Despite wanting to cut ties, wanting to kill Naruto, he couldn't, something stopped him. Perhaps later, in a few years he would realize what stopped him, was the fact that he by default was still a child and he was afraid of being left alone again... but Sasuke would never admit it, because sometimes his pride was too much. stronger than his own will.

When he arrived with Orochimaru he didn't feel intimidated and if he felt that way he wouldn't show it, as soon as he finished his training he would end the life of that disgusting guy.

'I'm an avenger' he was and he wouldn't let anyone hurt anyone else, at least not like he was hurt in the past.

Several months passed in which Sasuke could feel the difference, he felt stronger, much more than he was before. After having finished some difficult exercises to exercise his Sharingan, Sasuke was on his way to the showers and in the middle of his journey that's when he saw you.

You were…beautiful, well within what was possible, since the band for the eyes hindered the full view of your face, but with what he could see you were in fact very beautiful. Sasuke wondered in the back of his mind who you were, but he would never approach you with such a dumb question, this was not his goal.

With a snort he ignored you as he hurried to the shower, ignoring the wetness of his hands and the heavy drumming of his heart, when was the last time he felt like this?

"Ridiculous…" Sasuke muttered not realizing that you were paying attention to him.

"Mmm... what a strange boy" you dared to whisper when you stopped listening to the footsteps of the person who passed sulking next to you. 'Well, it doesn't matter, I need to give my report to Lord Orochimaru' you thought as you let out a long breath, this would be a long day.

.- - - - -. .- - - - -. .- - - - -. .- - - - -.

The next time Sasuke saw you, it had only been a few weeks. You were talking to Kabuto about something.

"Aa Sasuke you're here, great" the man said before turning to you "Y/N this is Sasuke"

"A pleasure" you spoke, but your voice. Oh, your voice was so sweet and soft, it reminded him of his Mother's voice. Sasuke felt a little worried by that line of thought.

"I'm saying the same" he half muttered, Sasuke definitely didn't expect to meet you. He could feel his hands sweaty again. 'How annoying'

"Well I have to go, take care Y/N" Kabuto said turning to you "Sasuke" he spoke as he leaned a little towards him in farewell mode before leaving.

"See you Kabuto-san" you spoke, raising your hand a little, waving it as a sign of farewell.

Sasuke really didn't want to be around you, you put him in a way that he didn't want to be with, but before he could even turn around, you spoke.

“You are… the weird guy from the other day. I heard you sulking when you passed me" you spoke, as you went on in your sentence your voice became more smaller but Sasuke hardly paid attention to it.

Have you heard it? oh, Sasuke could feel himself cringing internally.

“... hn. forget it,” he muttered as best he could before walking away. no, he definitely wasn't running, he wasn't running and he definitely wasn't sweating or shaking or…

Who could he fool, Sasuke was so deep in thought that he didn't even think if you'd be able to get anywhere in the base by yourself with that eye band, he only started thinking about it when he got to his room with his head spinning and his heart beating hard against his chest.

'Shit…' he thought when he realized his mistake, he had left you alone.

with the same speed with which he entered his room was with which he left. Sasuke didn't know why he was so worried about you, it was ridiculous and yet he kept running to where he had last seen you.

'He's gone. How rude-' you thought before being interrupted by the same types of footsteps but more hurried from that boy. The footsteps stopped abruptly a few steps from you, you could hear his heavy breathing. He really ran fast, huh?

"I... are you okay?" you spoke without knowing exactly what to say.

"Yes..." the voice spoke a little agitated.

"And why did you run back?"

"because I'm sure you're a fool to guide yourself on this basis"

…wait, he really-

you felt a little offended now, but at the same time a thought came to your mind 'did he care about me?'.

“ummm… thanks” you really didn't know what to say next, so you said the first thing that came to your mind.

"So, do you want to accompany me to the dining room? I think I'm hungry"

From that day Sasuke would accompany you to dinner. It became like a routine for the two of you, at those meals you just talked incessantly and Sasuke always listened to you talk, and if you took a while to finish your food he would wait for you until you finished your last bite. He was sweet, in a way, it was like he was taking care of you.

Sasuke, on the other hand, was beginning to understand a little more about his feelings for you. Sasuke wasn't stupid, he knew what these feelings were, Love.

he had seen that feeling first hand in the interactions of his parents, Fugaku despite being a serious man, even Sasuke could see his icy gaze melt when he looked at his mother. and now Sasuke could understand that phrase that his paternal grandfather told him; "Even strong men can fall for the women they love."

Oh, how foolish Sasuke felt for falling in love on his way to revenge on his brother.

.- - - - -. .- - - - -. .- - - - -. .- - - - -.

Tonight you had decided to dine outside right under the stars, even though you couldn't see them, you wanted your faithful companion to feel comfortable with the view.

“is the sky beautiful?”

"It is…"

Just those words were needed to create a safe environment between the two of you, the food was hot and the breeze was nice, it was a perfect environment.

Sasuke, on the other hand, had a question running through his mind, why were you wearing a blindfold, he never asked since it was none of his business, but on nights like this when you looked so gorgeous? he couldn't help but wonder what your eyes would look like under that piece of cloth.

"Y/N..."

"Yes?"

"Why are you wearing that blindfold?"

it was a simple question, but you were still surprised that he of all people would ask you.

"Well... I think it would be better if I show you" you spoke as you put down your tea, then reached your hands towards the blindfold.

when the blindfold fell, Sasuke saw you in the eye for the first time and you were more beautiful than he thought.

This was also the first time you saw him. You had already realized a few weeks ago that you were beginning to have feelings for Sasuke, always hearing his voice, but never seeing his face, now you understand why there was such a fuss when a woman saw Sasuke. he seems so ethereal.

"why do you hide your eyes?" You had almost missed the question, swallowing your nervousness and stopping the small blush, as you could you answered the reason why.

when you were born you had slightly weak eyes, you were five years old when Orochimaru kidnapped you for experiments. and they quickly gave results, your eyes became that way giving you various abilities but still your eyes needed to be at rest until it was time to fight. That was the main reason why despite your abilities Orochimaru did not possess your body.

After finishing your story, Sasuke let out a small whisper.

"I will become stronger"

"eh?"

"I will become stronger to protect you" he spoke louder this time.

Sasuke could make this promise to you for now, for while he would find a way to confess to you, perhaps he would when he has achieved all of his goals. perhaps he would think better of it when he had found the motivation to kill his brother again.

maybe he would put the hate aside, because Sasuke had found a new motivation protect you. Apparently his grandfather was right, how low can a man in love really fall...

* Sasuke is a love with you, but a tough guy towards others. * when you're a couple, he'll draw you when you're asleep, but shhh it's a secret that no one should know, including you. * will always follow you when he is not doing something important, which is usually training and getting stronger. * It is probable that Sasuke has lost interest in killing his brother, but who knows you already changed many things in him...

Young Caranthir embroidery HC

I have no energy to draw a full work so I'll be scribbling away at HC's for the time being :3

A little color edit I liked u.u

❥⁠ Baby Moryo was the Nr.1 hoarder of shiny and pretty fabrics. He would often sneak into the tailor shops and walk around with stars in his little eyes out of amazement.

❥⁠ As a baby he'd be head over heals with silk and organza because of its shine and soft feel against his skin. Since he was born with redness he might also have been sensitive to fabrics. As he got older he would gravitate to more sturdy fabrics such as corduroy or thick velvet. But he wouldn't be giving up silk pajamas even if you threatened him.

❥⁠ Over time he'd also get a fancy for embroidery and watch the maids in the same tailor shops embroidering away at all kinds of gowns. His first works were....interesting but with patience and practice he developed an astonishing amount of skill.

Sharing this lovely article about Kaku-sensei where he basically talks about his influences(lots of horror and mangakas such as Kentaro Miura, Junji Ito, and even CSM's Fujimoto-sensei! he seems friends with him too). He also talks about how he made the characters of Sagirin and Gabimaru where he intentionally wanted them to be unique(me: yes sensei! I whole heatedly agree that you delivered in this one :')). There's also more on the creative process of the series!

This whole interview is definitely a treat to fans/stans of Hell's Paradise. Please give it a read! u.u

(for self-indulgent reasons, under the cut is my fave quotes from the interview!)

Kaku: (About the art mediums he used) I used a combination of Copic markers and acrylic paint for volumes one through five of Hell's Paradise. Before that, I used only Copics. When working analog, you get to enjoy periodically changing what materials you use. Since Jigokuraku Kaitai Shinsho (fan book published in 2021), I've used a combination of Copics and acrylic. I'll use different paper when working with watercolors and even change up my materials if it's fun. Fun is more important to me than efficiency when it comes to materials.

Kaku: (about his OG draft on the series) I don't often start with the setting. For this work, I started with "several pairs of people whose interests aren't aligned are thrown into an enclosed space and forced to work together." That's the framework. In the very beginning, the story was about children sent to a youth detention center and the lawyers fighting for them. From there, through discussions with my editor, we dropped that setting but kept the framework and applied different characters to it. We kept the framework because I've always liked the way human relationships change and wanted to write a story about it.

Kaku: (About our duo Sagirin and Gabimaru!) This is something I imagined from the start of publication. Both Gabimaru and Sagiri have the same values as someone living in the 2020s. This is also the reason the story is set in the distant past during the late Edo period. The people of that time had totally different ideas about ethics and human rights. Despite condemned criminals and executioners being difficult characters to empathize with, if they share our perspective, then we feel close to them, and they stand out as unique characters in an Edo Period setting. From the very start, I felt that made Gabimaru and Sagiri unique.

Kaku: Yes! "The characters take on a life of their own." When I was a newbie, whenever that phrase came up in interviews with manga artists, I thought, "That can't be possible! After all, you made those characters!" (Laughs) But now I think that really is what happens. In fact, it's more interesting when it does.

I really love your drawings. Seriously, they're AMAZING! I love those freaky SMILES! So, how are you? I do not know what to write, I just wanted to express how much I liked your art's-

Anyway, what better way to give my sincerest thanks than to have it delivered by my freakiest smile haver :)

aaaaahhhhh i can't wait for kaiju!NRC staff, like trein being an ex-researcher, crewel being another kaiju who just takes one look at kaiju! crowley and takes yuu, so you can have a better parent aka him, oooh vargas being a very friendly kaiju that gives you food because he thinks yuu's to small and needs to eat more while sam is just vibing

Ackakcuaocw!!!!

I'm so glad that you like the AU so far! :D I'll be posting a list of the characters as well as their codenames soon!

The basic idea I had is that basically everyone from NRC and RSA (whom I'm still waiting to work on once we get more details) and the newly introduced NBC (Noble Bell College from the new event in the Japanese server) are kaiju. Aka, anyone that's got magic in them? They're a kaiju now! >v<

I do like the idea of Trein being an ex-researcher, though imagining him as a giant sleepy grump of an elder kaiju who swats at noisy and rambunctious youths (or swats at Crowley when he's being too overbearing) yet being a tolerant guardian with hatchlings and teenie Yuu/MC/Reader is just as hilarious and adorable an idea to me 😂

Crewel in this AU might just be somewhat more lenient on Crowley in terms of parental guardianship, but will still be monitoring the smol adopted hooman regardless once he finds out about them! Let's just say that kaiju!Crowley experienced quite the bit of trauma in this AU sorry not sorry and Crewel was there to witness it. U.U He will step in and co-parent (or somewhat take over) when he deems necessary though!

Vargas being the one trying to help Yuu/MC/Reader grow by feeding them is spot on, while Sam somehow seems to know just what the teenie one needs and how they need it. 😌 If you think Vargas is friendly though, wait until you see Kalim! :V

Hello! I saw that you posted how guys would react to a naughty video of his gf, can I ask Gentaro x fem reader, who pranks Gen by sending her a picture saying she's horny but really she's just bored being alone?

It's okay if you don't want to write it, but there are so few Gentaro stories u.u

Was a lie ✨

Hi! That possibility had not occurred to me, but of course! Plus it sounds like a lot of fun!

Warnings: A bit of a hint about sex, but nothing overt. spicy photos

Gentaro x reader

It was already your second day off that you didn't spend with him because his schedules don't match, you knew he was in a meeting with his editor and hopefully, maybe he'll be back by nightfall, they could still share some time together, but it wasn't the same.

You're about to send him a message just to wish him luck in the interview when it occurs to you that you could play a little prank on him. Followed by your good luck wishes, you ask if it really is a long time before he arrives.

"I know, sorry honey... the meeting hasn't started yet" after taking some time he writes another message "I'll make up for it, I promise it won't happen again" you feel a little guilty for what you're going to do after reading that last one.

Lying on the bed, you undress keeping your underwear, placing a hand on your crotch and squeezing it with your thighs, looking for the best angle before taking a photo and sending it "Gentaro, I don't think I can take much more" just a few minutes pass before he sees it.

Your message remains seen for a long time, you can see how he tries to write something but he deletes it repeatedly before finally replying to you. "It must be a joke, but thanks for the photo I'll save it well" oh, well it may be very obvious but don't let that win you over.

"Do I have to send you a video too?" This time he didn't answer, you thought he definitely hadn't fallen so you changed back, and you just went to bed to use your cell phone until you got bored. You were so bored being alone, you had nothing to do, not even your friends were available today.

You thought about cooking something to entertain yourself for a while, so you started looking for the ingredients to make a dessert. Taking a last look at Gentaro's chat in case he had responded, but he hadn't.

While you cook you keep thinking about how sad it is that their schedules don't match. Your mind wanders into future plans about his upcoming dates, picking a place to go immediately after he gets back. This time there would be no way for him to fail.

You were about to finish when you heard the front door open and the noise of footsteps at full speed in your direction. Without time to react, you remain paralyzed in place as you see Gentaro running with all his things in his hands, without seeing you with the sole objective of reaching the room.

"I'm here honey!" For a brief moment there is silence again and his footsteps become softer "s/o!" He opens the bathroom door, but since you're not there either he walks more slowly looking for you until he reaches the kitchen "s/o?" His face can barely express the confusion he feels.

"Gentaro? You didn't have a meeting?..." they exchange glances waiting for someone to explain "you sent me that photo and I thought... I was too late?" You blink without understanding what it means, until something clicks in your brain. "Oh, I was lying!" You laugh because you didn't think your joke had worked, it wasn't in your plans for him to leave the meeting in order to come and please you.

"Lying?" He says that word like he doesn't know it, he can't believe he fell for a joke. He feels so silly, but he was so excited to play with you. A mischievous smile begins to grow on his face as he slowly approaches you. "You won't get out of this so easy my pretty little heart and I'm not lying"

Trapping you in his arms, he tickles you with his fingers until you cry a couple of times. He interrupts your laughter by giving you a totally anticlimactic hungry kiss. He loves the sound of your laughter and will do everything he can to protect it, but he loves your moans even more, plus he has to make you pay for your little prank.

⭐️ (fanfic directors cut)

choose anything you’ve been dying to talk about, I could listen to you talk about Aegon and Amara ALL DAY EVERY DAY

EEEEEEEEEEEEEE JO ><

Okay okay so...I think once I write a chapter I put it out of my head for a while so there's nothing I've been dying to talk about per say, but I WILL admit the power imbalance in the god of wine fic is very new for me.

Amara is still an Uller, she has that cadet branch bloodline, but both her parents are average commoners, and she's in the Jenny of Oldstones position of catching the eye of royalty (not a good thing, because as we all know, Jenny's song is a mournful ballad). But in another sense, it's so....FREEING. She can do anything. She can go anywhere. In Burning Jasmine, once Cannibal barged his way into her life, it was over, she was caged, and for the rest of her life, she would never again walk under anonymity. But in this fic, she won't have a dragon. In Burning Jasmine, Aegon was afraid she'd leave (same fears in YSMMC, though that's his personal abandonment issues kicking in because of how he was raised) however in this fic, Amara absolutely 100% can just vanish one day and never return. She has the brains to make it out there and not need marriage to support her. He might even hear of her as being the captain of a pirate ship in the distant seas one day, someone a Velaryon encountered perhaps.

And only in this sense does Amara have power Aegon does not and will never have. He can't leave, he's tied to the throne like a dog on a leash (the same dog-on-a-leash she fantasises about turning him into). It's her power over him in a sense, because his paranoia could lead him to commit terrible acts of imprisonment to keep her where she is, however all she needs is one small crack in the fortress wall and she'd be gone.

That being said, his power still largely outweighs hers, and she'd have to use every last braincell to avoid the bounty hunters he'd no doubt bribe with a very large price to drag her back. Considering she's going to give birth to their child soon enough, that baby only complicates things further but...I'll leave that up to the future of the plot u.u

Texturing Tutorial

I was asked by @liliumsims to make a tutorial on how I texture my cc. I was supposed to be texturing something else but who cares -_-

I don't know how much help this'll be cause you will need some artistic abilities and knowledge in a digital art software. There aren't any real shortcuts I can give, truth be told I do things the hard way 90% of the time, I can only show you my methods and hope they are of some use.

So to start I use the base maxis UV/texture template to see what I'm doing

I don't paint textures in blender, I usually just eyeball it in gimp and it normally turns out fine. >_>

For this tutorial I'll be using the underwear from my sports set as a visual example. It's easy for me cause I just made it.

First I paint the base shape. I usually have S4S open at the same time so that I can periodically check my progress and make sure I don't mess anything up too bad... Once the shape is mapped out I then add the shadows. These are basic and meant to give a little depth to the garment.

Next is any line detail I want to add and highlights to bring the lines out a bit more. I do all my texturing with a mouse so they aren't perfect but it works for the sims so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (ignore the black line, i painted it on the wrong layer)

Here's a workflow gif of the bow I made for this set I had to scale it up so sorry for the crappy quality

and after everything and adding details like lace, shadows for the bow and whatnot, the garment is complete

I don't like using too many steps or layers, my aesthetic isn't realistic so thankfully I don't have to worry about that. But if you want your content to be more realistic without using actual real life textures just remember you're gonna have to put a bit more time and effort into the project.

I spend a lot of time going back and forth, checking progress and making sure it looks good in S4S only to have the quality lowered in game u.u.... But I hope this helps someone!

Okay so in honor of the fact that I’ve decided Nanami is my newest f/o, I’d love a moodboard for us spending a rare day in, cooking and baking together. He deserves some rest and relaxation and I want to take care of him.

bruh that episode really got to us all huh u.u i loved kento but THAT scene really shed a whole new light on him. oh to have him grab me by the hair like that ;alksjdf; ANYWAYS

Nanami Kento relishes those days off with you - a moment with you is never taken for granted. He's a hardass outside the house, dare I say almost unapproachable. But inside the walls of what you two call home, he's anything but. The soft smiles he would give you could melt an iceberg. He's an early riser (much to your disdain), so he'll make you breakfast in bed first. You'll pull him back into bed after though, receiving the cuddles you so deserve for the next few hours. Perhaps the both of you would nod off again. Then, the rest of the day would be whatever you wanted. You'd open the windows and let in the fresh air before baking something sweet. Passerbys would be so jealous of the confections you two worked so hard on. Then to wind down, you'd both spend some time reading in comfortable silence before making dinner, together of course. Nanami doesn't rest very often. I mean, can you blame him? But when he's given a chance, he only wants to spend it with you.

send me your dream date/day/night/whatever with you f/o and I'll make you a moodboard! :3

Hellooooooooooo

4, 8 and 12 for everyone, or all of your blorbos you'd think you'd have more to say! :3

[ask game]

Hiii!! Thanks for enabling me Arja fhsfdskldf, and apologies for the wait! :')

4. In developing their backstory, what elements of the world they live in played the most influential parts?

Neira: chantry indoctrination u.u

Kala: being casteless and the iron hold the carta had on her

Liam: the Everything about his family but especially leandra

Lilian: being an apostate, and malcom

June: being a mage, and coming from a religious noble family

Ari: in a roundabout way, some parts of qun teachings his parents passed on to him

Adriel: all the ways in which she stands in between things

Noya: her family

Var'renan: her clan, specially tamlen

8. What (if anything) do you relate to within their character/story?

this ended up being more a "which traits do you share" oops but i hope that works!

Neira: being acutely aware of responsibility, trying too hard to avoid/postpone making decisions, her relationship with her sexuality (& gender, kinda)

Kala: her brand of defiance & stubbornness & sense of self, her fascination for the world around her and the live for little things, her wayof emotionally detaching herself when needed

Liam: the tendency to get too melancholy and stuck on the past, the wanting to stay out of drama the best he can. & his general sense of privacy and boundaries around it are similar to mine i think

Lilian: her the way she deals with intrapersonal conflicts and her attitude towards life, her brand of protectiveness and bond with her siblings

June: her trouble with social graces and expectations/politeness, her body type kinda?, her way of thinking wrt problem solving

Ari: wanting to get things done by himself, overthinking social interactions, "i'll just finish this one thing" "oh crap it's 3am"

12. What have you found to be most difficult about creating art for your OC (any form of art: writing, drawing, edits, etc.)?

Neira: her fuckign. Face shape. Sometimes it looks just like i want sometimes it looks awful, it's a 50/5p thing. Also i never get her to look skinny and lanky in the way i want. & drawing burn scars is hard </3

Kala: the braiidd i struggle sm with braids and i always forget to adjust the length over time lol. Also her height & making her look fat and beefy in the way i want

Liam: height again </3 also his dai era hair..... how even does one draw short spiky hair that sticks up all over the place

Lilian: still cant quite settle on the exact body type for her... And her nose, i can never get it right smh

June: very easy to make her look too young rip

Ari: horns >:( specially the broken one lolol i'm so sorry Ari for constantly butchering your horns 😔. And his proportions give me trouble smh....

add a few details to your vivisection story, you say? 👀

hi ! hello !! thank you for the ask ~!! yeah, i completely forgot to mention some stuff because i got distracted and needed to prepare dinner for my family u.u

(again, random warning for detailed descriptions of gore, i guess)

for instance, i forgot to add a note on what the pressure on the "external hand" —the one applying pressure to prevent bleed out—felt like throughout the situation. or a note on how the blood rushing through the blood vessels feels when in close contact to them (ever grabbed a hose with running water ? it's something funny like that).

or what the heartbeat felt like for the "giver" during that last part, when he finally managed to reanimate the heart (i only focussed on the lung part),,, what sensation the diaphragm squeezing against his arm and pressing it towards the underside of the rigid sternum would cause,,, heck, i also wanted to mention a little buzz of electricity being felt when the heart conduction system reactivated !

(like a little zap, not unlike touching an old tv's screen; except, whenever that happens the typical reaction is to move your hand away and in this case, the hand is literally being squeezed against everything so it can't go anywhere and is forced to just take it.)

and of course, there were more details to mention on the "receiver"'s end of the story. i don't think his awareness level would allow them to fully recognise what was happening, but certain things could be mentioned, i think. like, during hypovolaemic shock, everything just feels cold to the sufferer, so there could be something about a warm thing inside his chest amidst the frost. this could also be expanded upon by mentioning the whole mouth-to-mouth thing and the really close proximity the situation would force the pair into (the "giver" would practically have to be on top of the other for all these things, which could also influence whatever hallucinations the "receiver" was having as he approached death :O )

or something about the contradicting reactions in blood pressure that the situation would elicit ! by definition, hypovolaemic shock leads to low blood pressure. then, heart resuscitation makes it go higher, much like the panic that would set in once he recovered awareness. but then, there is something wrapped around the heart so it can't distend fully + the hand is pressing against the baroreceptors in the heart so again, lower blood pressure.

(baroreceptors are little bundles of nerves that help regulate blood pressure across the body. there are some in the carotid sinus on the neck, which can be stimulated through a somewhat dangerous medical manoeuvre called "carotid massage", which typically makes the person feel faint. i imagine the same would happen if someone were to accidentally massage the baroreceptors in the heart so all in all, all these stimuli cause a weird feedback loop that'd leave the person feeling dizzy and loopy and just really funky)

not to mention all the build-up of what happened before the demogorgon even attacked them. in my mind, they were having a nasty fight not long before the attack so things were already very tense; then we add the adrenaline of running away and then the adrenaline rush of having to perform internal cardiac massage and we now have a very interesting set of feelings.

,,,so yeah, there are loads to add to the story that i either forgot about since i was trying to write something short, or that could be expanded upon to have a proper one-shot written (which i now want to do. only downside is that i'd have to pick who's who in this and i haven't figured that out, so i'll have to give this much more thought before getting anything done x.x )

anyway. got carried away again so i'll leave this here. thanks again for the ask, anon !! hope you have a lovely day / night ~ ^-^

(a semi-offering ? idk, you guys seemed to like the original story so maybe you'll like these additions too. apologies if this is annoying x.x @boycattj, @rotisseries, @cosmobrain00, @conanssummerchild, @karenchildress, @foodiewithdahoodie, @fluffyfangirl.)

Flufftober Day 13: Wrong Number

Tomary - Tom Riddle x Harry Potter

!! - Implied murders, wine as blood cause google won't give me a blood-stained carpet u.u

Unknown number: Mate, I've got a problem.

Unknown number:

Unknown number: The stain won't come off. I've tried everything.

Tom did a double-take when he loaded the picture. He was familiar with that kind of stain, and he knew there was no way to clean it completely.

Tom: If that's after you tried everything, it's sure to say that carpet id forever ruined.

Tom: I suggest burning it along with any evidence you forgot to dispose of.

Tom: I hope you're better at hiding bodies than you are at cleaning.

Unknown number: !? Ron?

Tom: Wrong number.

Unknown number: Oh shit! Sorry. And that's a wine stain, not whatever creepy thing you're thinking.

Tom: Sure.

Tom: Say, do you need help?

Unknown number: To clean a carpet of WINE? Why would you help me?

Tom: I'm bored. This is the most exciting thing that has happened to me this week.

Unknown number: Only this week?

Tom: I know someone who could clean that for you if you need to keep it.

Tom: Or, I know a place where we can go camping and cook some marshmallows in that fire.

Unknown number: You are inviting me to go camping even after you think I murdered someone and have their blood on my carpet?

Unknown number: Are you for real?

Tom: I told you I'm bored. Besides, I could give you some tips. Next time, you can avoid "wine" stains.

It took a couple of minutes for the other number to answer. Tom sent the picture to Bella asking for her opinion. as he thought, she'd be able to clean it easily, but she demanded the full story. Tom promised to tell her once he knew it himself.

Unknown number: I'm Harry.

Tom: Tom. I'll meet you at the Leaky Cauldron in half an hour. Ask for Bellatrix.

Tom: You are in London, right? This will be a lot harder if you're not.

Harry: I'm close. I can make it.

Tom: Nice.

Harry: See you then. And thanks, I guess.

Tom: Oh, Harry, don't thank me yet.

Tom: You'll have plenty of time after we clean up your mess.

Tom: Oh, and Bella and I, we want details.

Meanwhile, in Little Whinning, a green-eyed young man grinned widely down at his phone. Who would have imagined his uncle would be so useful in his plans? Behind him, a blurry photo of serial murderer Tom Riddle decorated his wall.

Harry was more than ready to meet his idol.

Homura Arc (chapters 100-104) - How Ban's character highlighted Natori and Matoba's bond/Frienemieship/Whatever it is they have through cats

@joelleity here's the thing I was talking about

Heads up I haven't read the non translated chapter so this is only resting on the canon we have up to chap 108.

I've always considered NatsuYuu to be a cat people story in part because most characters have cat-like tendencies (especially if they're Ayakashi related, whether because they're Yokai or because they can see/feel them). This show is about the importance of interpersonal relationship and those are treated very much with a cat themed thesis of "even if it's just for a second and you find happiness with other people, it doesn't make its impact lesser than"...Also Natsume punching creatures bigger than he is and running away immediately is peak cat behavior u.u.

Generally speaking there are very few humans in this show who give the cat vibe as much as Matoba Seiji does.

However I didn't expect Midorikawa sensei to play with it this literally instead of just jokingly (if one day we get a chapter with any character, but especially Matoba being turned into a cat I'll die)...

More seriously though, the focus of this story is Maneki Neko exorcism tools and the fact that Ban wants to capture them for his Master who happen to be Matoba Seiji's Sister (whom I will call Lady Matoba from now on for practicality). Which actually give us these two as foils

through the Matoba siblings feud(?).

Surprising, I know. I actually don't know the point of this, I've mostly noticed a pattern and am trying to write my thoughts down.

First let's take a look at what we know of where Matoba Seiji and Natori Shuuchi are at, at the beginning of this story.

So far in the main story Matoba and Natori have been established as people who know each other through having clearly worked together before which brings some level of knowledge about each other that's common between colleagues and Natori is particularly distrustful of Matoba. They still both acknowledge the other's skills.

We've also got to know only a few chapters prior that they have known each other since high school and had moments which they remembered differently. Natori remembered not liking the loquat he tried meanwhile Matoba remembered being offered loquats only because he was with Natori and remembering the context as well as remembering Natori's experience too.

The flashback chapters, which we have had for longer, give a lot more depth to this. We know that Natori's distrust is caused both by Matoba's attitude toward casually using others (well, him specifically) AND because of Natori's family rejection because of who he is. Basically Natori has a huge inferiority complex and doesn't know how to have interpersonal relationships.

Meanwhile Matoba seeked him out regularly 'cause lonely teenage boy, and because he too sucks at interpersonal relationships, he tried to find a pragmatic reasoning for why he was there. Since he was basically raised to live, breathe and die for his clan his pragmatism is inherently linked to that. Whether he was trying to find use for his clan and took the opportunity to find a friend or he wanted a friend and took the opportunity to help his clan is left unsaid. Either way he tried to get both.

It generally seems mostly one sided in the fondness department. with the exception of that one time Natori woke up after being possessed, Matoba seems to be the only one trying to turn this into an actual friendship.

So on the one hand we've got Matoba seeking Natori out and trying to befriend him but unable to be vulnerable because that would make his clan vulnerable. Matoba even tried to get Natori to come to his clan so he'd get a talented exorcist and get an actual friend out of it (vulnerability would not be as much of a problem if it's from the inside. Granted I doubt he though that far ahead). Matoba who is used to being rejected and still tries. Though he stops trying to recruit Natori he still seeked him out. Until he stopped which we don't know a thing about.

On the other we've got Natori who doesn't want to be vulnerable out of fear of being rejected, who takes Matoba at face value and never really tries to see past the Clan Heir to who Matoba is because Matoba's front gives him an excuse to fear vulnerability.

The one time he tried, Matoba got cold feet because while hoping, he's never actually had anybody try to reciprocate a genuine interest in him as a person and didn't know how to react so he fell back on known mechanisms.

This is represented by their names. Matoba calling Natori by his first name and getting him to call him Seiji and them arriving at adulthood using their last names with a polite distance.

Neither was in a good enough place to actually manage to build strong foundations so there are foundations but they're kind of just...there waiting to be reinforced and built on.

So that's it for the run down.

But why does that matter ? Well this chapter nuances everything through more or less subtle additions which hasn't really happened yet in the main story, at least not on such a big scale.

Natori's familiarity with the Matobas

We start the arc with Natori recognizing an object belonging to someone we don't know. Just that they make him shudder. We learn at the very end that this is Lady Matoba. Which brings some behaviors to a different light.

For example when explaining who Ban is and what kind of person he is sevring, we get this:

Natori who generally acts very callously toward Matoba's feelings (not talking about politeness and rank here) is actually trying to assess Matoba. It could be for several reasons. Most likely it's because he knows it affected Matoba even if he probably doesn't know how much. Maybe he's trying to gauge how Matoba feels about it for curiosity's sake, maybe because he's worried Matoba will just be more dangerous than usual, maybe he's just worried because he does care even if just a bit. Maybe it's a bit of all those combined.

Before the reveal of Lady Matoba we just know that Natori knows who it is and that they're an enemy of the Matoba clan. However this means that he probably met her through Matoba himself. The way the conversation is frames generally make it seem like his knowledge is linked to Seiji but it is very subtle.

It also makes more sense than just meeting Ban and Lady Matoba through the colleagues excuse since he recognized a pot to be hers, as something she cares about very much. It's further proved when Natori talks with Matoba (all cozy looking) and describes the pot and later when Natori is left with Nyanko-sensei and explains how he knows Matoba because it's very clear for him that Natori and Matoba do know each other rather well despite not getting along.

It also brings an interesting point to his view of Matoba: He dislike his methods. It is a nice confirmation that Natori doesn't dislike Matoba himself and it explains why they are in this very gray area and don't fit the trope of Enemy to LoversFriends. Matoba is very much an antagonist and not a villain, and Natori sees it that way too.

Anyway I bring this up because Natori remembers he saw that pot back when he and Matoba were high schoolers which is the time period when they were the closest thing to being friends.

Natori Shuuichi's familiarity with Matoba Seiji

Chronologically we have Natori kidnapping Seiji from an important meeting.

Though I doubt it happened the way Natsume and Nyanko-sensei imagine it and Matoba was mostly just exaggerating because he's kind of a troll, it still says a lot that Natori doesn't negate his words, meaning that, while exaggerated, they're not lies. This means that Natori can get away with something that most people wouldn't be able to (even if partly because Matoba would never have refused anything to this context of a Matoba clan enemy, it still makes more sense if it is also linked to something more personal especially with Natori looking out for Matoba's reaction).

The point still remains that in an official setting where Matoba was clearly surrounded and not an easy prey, Natori managed to get in and out with the head of a clan without being stopped and was given the benefit of doubt that it was actually important. This implies a level of trust and respect from Matoba sure, but it also means that this is known by the people surrounding him. I don't doubt that Nanase knows seeing as how she treats Natori as more than a background character but I doubt she's the only one present there (and if the others didn't know before this, they definitely do now).

PS: I dare you to tell me Matoba doesn't look like a cat in Natsume and Nyanko-sensei's vision.

Speaking of cats, we're getting to the page where Matoba's love of cats gets shown:

Natori-san you have no right looking this soft for your antagonist.

PS: Taki and Matoba would probably get along in their love for cats.

Hmm anyway, we know from the special chapters that Natori was lucky enough to stumble onto Matoba hiding under a table and stealing sweets as well as just showing other childish behavior when they were teenagers and Matoba didn't yet have to put on a mask every second of every day because of his responsibilities. So it's not hard to believe that Natori would have stumbled upon Matoba geeking about cats. Depending on how far his denial of Matoba's humanity as an adult goes, this is could be him being glad that Matoba can still be like this as an adult even after he's continued on his path of apathy but it could just be a normal kind of fondness toward someone you care about. Or both.

The point is that Natori remembers this detail even years after.

Now we move on to Matoba getting lost in his quest of power to protect his clan.

Now one of the gimmick of this series is that Natsume is generally the one whose empathy reaches whoever is doing the wrong thing but when he can't directly, he does it inderectly through whoever he helped/inspired to get there and they're the ones linked to the antagonist. Usually it's Ayakashi but here it's about the most ayakashi-like humans we have in our main cast. Natsume has had enough an impact on Natori that Natori can now act and start doing something about his relationship with Matoba.

I find this interesting that this is where it stops. The next scene is officially about Natsume and Natori. Matoba isn't the type to let these kinds of actions slide but here he does. He takes a back seat. Partly because of Natsume reminding him he can't be so reckless about his own life if he wants to keep protecting his clan. It follows their parallel as people with a heavily loaded inheritance who can understand each other. Which Natori doesn't have, yet he's the one who saved Matoba and Natsume. Because he's starting to see past this concept of inheritance at the people concerned. And the following scene he shares with Natsume reinforces this (hence why it's officially about Natsume and Natori but officiously about Matoba and Natori).

He and Matoba are simply not in a place to make anything of it yet.

And Matoba was reached by both of them. Which is probably why he doesn't actually do anything. He seems to still be in a sort of daze and his eye just stays hidden.

That's how this chapter ends and the next one starts with them planning to destroy the weapon Matoba wanted.

Matoba still seems out of it and I find it interesting that Natori is still the one doing the talking. Normally it'd be Natsume's role. Yet Natori is the one using Matoba's pragmatism to stop him. He's direct but still pretty soft and genuine. Aside from the way his relationship with Natsume has evolved (and that's still a fairly recent development) and Takuma, Natori tends to either Sparkle or be pretty abrasive.

He's either growing enough that he can now be genuine with others when they had an almost emotional breakdown, or he's finally ready to see past Matoba's mask...Or both.

He also uses a different, more emotional this time, argument which is "saving the cats", to get him out of his funk. The clan was used to stop Matoba from going further into his obsession while the cats were used to get him to act.

Lady Matoba & Ban VS Matoba Seiji & ... Natori Shuuichi ?

On the one hand we have Ban who followed his master (Natori even called Ban her confident at one point) out of the Matoba clan to enter a different one together. Who wants to make her happy.

On the other we have Natori who refused to enter the Matoba clan to follow Seiji and generally dislikes being around Matoba and whatever his latest obsession is. Who tried to escape Matoba's "games" and considers himself neutral.

How could they be paralleled ? Wouldn't it make more sense fo it to be Natsume since he's the last one Matoba tried to recruit ?

Well no. Because Natsume parallels Matoba. Whereas, as far as we know, Ban does not parallel Lady Matoba.

In the scene before the last one, Natori explains why he started poking around in the first place.

Nyanko-sensei does point that Natori doesn't seem that neutral and seems to lean toward helping the Matoba clan rather than sheer neutrality. Neither of them is wrong.

I do believe that Natori is generally more neutral than most. Not that interested in politics. But that doesn't mean that he can't recognize the stability the Matoba clan brings when the world of exorcists has been so reduced and that an "anti" organization could make things more dangerous for them. It IS an unknown after all. So to him being neutral doesn't mean being completely inactive.

But there's also the fact that he does care about the Matoba clan head and has met his sister enough to consider her creepier. He just doesn't care about Matoba as the clan head (it's probably the opposite).

Actually in the next scene, when Matoba confronts Ban, he says "that person gave me an unecessary secretive report". And that's because he wasn't giving it as a report. He's not on Matoba's side in the Matoba vs others war.

This is because there is a difference between political and personal.

And I didn't notice it before I reread the arc for this meta, but right before this scene, Midorikawa-Sensei actually highlights this difference but through Natsume because neither Natori nor Matoba is ready yet.

Maybe Seiji will understand someday !

I actually find it funny that Natsume has a similar role in Matoba and Natori's relationship as Nyanko-Sensei has in his and Tanuma's (well his and everybody but especially Tanuma).

Anyway, this is how the arc ends:

Ban who followed Lady Matoba, who wants to make her happy and tried to get powerful exorcist tools, doesn't know she hates cats.

Meanwhile Natori who tried to put distance for years between him and Matoba, who doesn't trust him and only brought him in this case because it's linked to his sister so he'd be the best person to help despite how dangerous he might be...

That guy knew that Matoba Seiji loves cats

#Matoba Seiji #Natori Shuuichi #Natsume Yuujinchou #NatsuYuu #I swear Matoba's the very definition of infatuation when it comes to Natori #Such a tiny detail #Also I'm still gushing over baby tanuma at the begining of the arc #Natsume got the title 'Emotional support teenager for dumbass adults'. He's both proud and annoyed #NatsuYuu Meta
