Astrology Observations No.9 (18+ only)
No minors! Adults only pls
Just my observations take them with a grain of salt
Tumblr media
-Venus or mars conjunction, square, opposition Neptune, pluto/ scorpio mars/Pisces mars/ mars 12th house/ Lilith conjunction, square, opposition Asc and 8th house - you probably straight up changed someone’s life after you -slept- with them and it was just another day for you. (Might be different for that Venus/Mars in a water signs, you might get attached)
-Cardinal mars start cuddling, fixed Mars never let go, and mutable mars will start and stop and start again over the course of the night
-Passive aggressive mars signs (Libra, cancer) and getting that pent up energy out during s*x and being rebellious in the bedroom
Tumblr media
-Virgo mars dudes are switches until you swtich and they’re still like sneakily being dominant imo. Like they’re going to lead anyway because they know what they’re doing. It’s that virgo need for control, can’t turn it all the way off.
-Libra mars, you’ll probably attract partners that are fixated on your butt no matter what their placements are
-Libra mars (with your partner’s consent ofc) take a seat on their face (gemini, virgo, scorpio placements especially)and change their life
-All mutable mars are very kinky imo. Sag, Pisces, & gemini tend to try anything once and Virgos in particular will try like 90% of what you’re into bc they’re into pleasing you
-Lilith synastry and 8th house synastry get so intense. They both play into this ‘forbidden’ lusty tension that can make a connection super passionate. The person with the planets conjunct/square/opposition to your Lilith can hit a point where they’re overwhelmed though. Like something in their attraction to you maxes them out and they can’t handle it. (Not always but it can become a situation where you have to work with your partner to make the relationship thrive)
-Mars points to everyone’s s*xual behavior imo. The more masc you are the more it’ll tell you about this behavior, the more femme you are the more your Venus will color your experiences
Tumblr media
-Mars conjunction, trine, sextile moon means your personality in bed will be similar to your personality in day to day life, perhaps more extreme in some ways but not a complete change. And you’ll slip into this pretty effortlessly. Mars square, opposition moon means you’ll have a completely different personality in bed vs your day to day life and you’ll shift into it seemingly all of a sudden.
-I have a theory that Gemini, Aquarius, and Libra Mars get more into s*xting and n*des and that sort of virtual exchange over hookups. Particularly without much earth or water in their chart.
-I think all virgo mars have s*x in the shower at some point, it’s just a perfect storm of cleanliness and efficiency lol
-Personally I’d guess that I’ve interacted with more mars signs but I only looked up the birth chart if they did what they did right. So I know a lot about Virgo Mars lol.
-After that I think Taurus Mars and Scorpio Mars were my best experiences historically, but like Virgo Mars—sheesh! That combo of not bragging but being very skilled and confident when it comes down to it? No competition (again just my experiences lol)
Tumblr media
-TW (consent/assault)
Lilith strong (conjunction, square, opposition) aspects to 1st and 8th could mean that one of the strong reactions you get is that when you have s*x with someone you see a side of them that seems to come out of nowhere. Sometimes fun sometimes not, as things tend to go with Lilith (consent is always important so you should discuss your yes, maybe, no list with your s*xual partner!)
-Also no matter how chill someone seems they’ll probably be extremely dominant or extremely submissive in the bedroom because they’re reacting to your Lilith and they may be lowkey overwhelmed by that energy.

Astrology Observations by Astrosky Part 17
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Venus at 5° can indicate being known as a sex symbol. This is because Venus represents attraction/beauty and 5 in numerology rules over beauty/sexual energy -> Ex’s: Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley (in their sidereal chart)
The 12th house represents selflessness/self-sacrifice so often 12th housers are constantly doing things for others even without anything in return
People with Pluto in the 7th house don’t only attract obsessive partners but obsessive people in general that have crushes on them and often refuse to leave them alone, following them everywhere - one of my friends that has this literally had 3 dudes that went up to her window stalking her, all on separate occasions, and that’s just the ones that she knows of
People with their Sun at 1° can gain fame from being the first to do things. This is because the Sun represents attention/spotlight and 1° represents leadership
Juno at 5/14/23 degrees can indicate your spouse is very good looking
When you have Mercury in the 1st/10th house in Composite with someone, people may often say you two look like siblings
11th house Synastry and Composite placements are actually way better for romance than people think. Yes it’s the house of friendship but also connection, teamwork, and desire most importantly. It can really make you desire to be with one another all the time, make you resolve conflict really well, and indicate a strong connection
Asteroid Memoria - Ascendant Synastry can indicate the asteroid person has a very hard time forgetting the ascendant person and getting them out of their mind in general -> code: 1247
Asteroid Leal in the 7th house in Composite Charts can indicate loyalty on both ends (in both platonic and romantic relationships) -> code: 19426
Asteroid Link in the 7th house or aspecting Venus in Composite can indicate a romantic relationship occurring and that you were meant to meet and be together romantically -> code: 3550
Asteroid Knight in Composite can show how you protect one another (ex: in the 2nd house can mean you’re each other’s emotional security) -> code: 29391
Asteroid Memoria in the 7th house in Composite Charts can indicate a relationship that’s very hard to forget (mutually) -> code: 1247

for better or worse the recent live action adaptations have violently thrown me back into my pjo and alta phases. so naturally, here are some headcannons for an alta au that takes place in the riordanverse:
sokka and katara are legacies of neptune, born and raised in new rome
katara inherited water-bending powers and sokka is a master swordsman and can talk to horses and fish cause why tf not
katara was offered a spot in the first cohort bc of her waterbending, but turned it down to be in the fifth cohort with sokka, who was always severely underestimated by the romans
zuko is a son of hephaestus with fire-bending powers
zuko fought on kronos' side during the titan war and saw luke as a big brother figure
zuko defected from the titan army and returned to camp half-blood after learning about his brother, charlie beckendorf's, death
zuko feels a lot of guilt surrounding beckendorf's death and believes that he is the one to blame, he runs away from CHB and eventually finds his way to Camp Jupiter
aang is a son of jupiter born before the "no kids" pact
jupiter decided to take a page out of hades' book and aang, similar to the di angelo's, was held frozen in time at the lotus hotel
jupiter sucks and totally forgot about aang so aang was trapped in the hotel waaay longer than the di angelo's
right after jason goes missing, katara has a dream about a son of jupiter trapped inside a building with a white lotus on the door
reyna, sokka, and katara go on a rescue mission to get jason, but instead find aang and bring him back to camp (yay!)
toph is a legacy of pluto and comes from a very rich and powerful family in new rome
toph wasn't required to do "military service" at camp jupiter because of her blindness
toph keeps her earth-bending abilities a secret to that she's not forced to serve in the roman army
appa and momo are pegasi (and yes, that means sokka can talk to them. they talk mad shit when he's on stable-cleaning duty)
suki is a hunter of artemis, sorry sokka :(
yue is a daughter of apollo, and also a hunter of artemis (sokka literally cannot win, sorry dude)
that's all for now, folks!

So how did we get from this
Tumblr media
Dedicated to his Worshippers, George Frederic Watt (1817-1904)
Tumblr media
To this?
A brief history of Mammon
Addendum Because We Can't Have Nice Things: this essay is in no way meant to be a "critique", criticism, or personal attack against Helluva Boss/Hazbin Hotel/Vivziepop as I am, in fact, a big fan of all three! I actually loved the newest episode and Mammon as a character. Seeing him in motion, I think he looks damned near perfect as a modern take on the King of Greed. I wrote this ONLY for educational purposes.
Mammon is a Chaldee (the Semantic language of ancient Chaldeans, the people of a small Mesopotamian country who were later absorbed by the Babylonians) or Syriac word meaning "wealth" or "riches".
Tumblr media
The Worship of Mammon, Evelyn De Morgan (1909)
He is best remembered from the Sermon on the Mount from Mathew 6: 24 (King James version): “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”
Tumblr media
Some scholars believe Mammon might have been loosely based on Dīs Pater, originally a Roman God of mineral wealth and fertile lands who was later merged with the chthonic deities of the underworld Pluto and Orcus (because minerals come from underground). Pluto was depicted in the Divine Comedy as "wolflike demon of wealth"; wolves in the medieval times were symbols of greed. Others think he might have been an ancient Syrian god, though no trace of his cult or temples exists.
Tumblr media
Mammon transformed over time from an abstract concept to major demon. This is thanks to later philosophers and theologians such as Saint Gregory of Nyssa, a third century Byzantine scholar, Archbishop of Constantinople John Chrysostom, and Peter Lombard, bishop of Paris from 1159 to 1160. His book of Four Books of Sentences (Sententiarum libri IV) was the standard theological text of the Middle Ages.
Mammon was assigned the sin of greed according to the Peter Binsfield classification of demons.
Tumblr media
John Milton of Paradise Lost fame imaged him as a fallen angel. He is described as being stooped over (literally the "least erected" of Lucifer's demonic host) because he always has his eyes downward looking for gold and would rather use Hell's resources to finance his lavish lifestyle than wage war against Heaven.
Tumblr media
In Edmund Spenser's 16th long poem, The Faerie Queene, Mammon is a “uncouth, salvage, and uncivile wight” who sets up his cave of riches right next to the entrance to the underworld. Subtle, huh? He tries to tempt Sir Guyon, the protagonist of Book II, with all his fabulous wealth, arguing that he could use it for good. (This is a religious-moral-political allegory about temperance, so you can guess how well that went.) He shows up again in Jacques de Plancy's Dictionnaire Infernal as Hell's ambassador to England. Yes, really.
Tumblr media
Just like in Biblical times, reformists used Mammon as a symbol of exploitation and unfettered capitalism during the industrial age.
Tumblr media
Fun fact: Mr. Burns lives at the corner of Croesus and Mammon street.
So how does Vivziepop's version compare to the historical Mammon? I dunno, he hasn't appeared in the show yet. It's not my favorite design, but I like the fact that half the fandom was expecting him to be the Big Bad of Helluva Boss, and he's a just big heckin' chonk who sort of looks like a demented Dr. Suess character crossed with a demonic air freshener. It's a silly design for a silly dude, but he could be more dangerous than he looks...

dude i love your thoughts on pluto (this is the shit i've been saying for years 😭 it's not a sexy planet it's TRAUMA). i REALLY wanna know what you have to say about pluto aspecting the ascendant
Omg yes and THANK YOU, I've been dying to talk about this for a hot minute 😭😭😭😭 The only true thing I have heard about pluto near the ascendant so far is that it can make a person intimidating without having to make a conscious effort to, it's just a natural thing for them, it's in the stare, the walk, just overall the way they carry themselves, they may not see themselves this way but its there, people can't ignore this about them and what did western astrologers do with this information? They managed to completely turn it into a sexual thing 💀, sex appeal whatever they call it to help people cope with just how intense this placement can get when its literally anything but sexual. Yes pluto near the ascendant, the descendant or MC can make people obsessed with you but it's not really the healthy type of obsession that you would get with Sun, Venus or jupiter near these angles. Obsession can mean many things like wanting to look like this person, wanting to model yourself after them, viewing them as a beacon of light (Sun and Venus) or always trusting this person's word, following everything that they do, their morals, their values or belief systems, cult like behavior (Jupiter) and then there's obsession that's just borderline weird/dangerous and uncalled for like stalking, picking fights with a person, having unprovoked animosity for a person, being mad at a person and not being able to pin down or describe the reason why (pluto.) that's all what pluto obsession is about, that's why ppl with pluto near the IC(which isnt really about you but talks about your roots, where you come from, deacribes your family) come from families who were secretly jealous of or otherwise hated them for reasons that aren't known, or are the cause of their trauma, fear and undoing, aspects to other planets would color how this plays out. Pluto is more of a "hater" type of energy, you're not sexually attracted to the people you hate, that's just not realistic. If you wanna observe sex or sex appeal or just anything NSFW related in astrology I strongly advise to look at Venus(for women) and Mars (for men), the aspects and by house, and also observe the 5th house (not the 8th house because that house isn't sexual either and only talks about death, inheritances and the business side of marriage, one more thing western astrologers lied about LMFAO 😭)

Turtles Encounters Her First Full GMMTV Upfronts Experience: A Personal Journey Into GMMTV2024
LOL, I don't mean to be dramatic -- I was around a little bit (?) last November for the GMMTV2023 upfronts, and I honestly did not know what was going on, except to scream about Cherry Magic Thailand. Back then, I was much more of a Japanese BL gal (see: Cherry Magic), but now I'm down with the GMMTV scene, as it were, through my Old GMMTV Challenge project, and I'm ready to wax on deez trailers.
One huge overall note: YES TO DUDES NOT BEING IN BRANDED PAIRS. Your Gawins, your Ohms, your Thors, your Joss-es. YES. This is an exciting line-up to me to see the dudes getting mixed up. As much as I loved Be My Favorite, I don't need to see GawinKrist again.
I am stealing the formats of the wonderful @bengiyo and @neuroticbookworm to offer my thoughts on the trailers! (My list is literally gonna look like everyone else's list, LMAO).
FUCK YES
My Golden Blood: Joss, Gawin, Mond, Neo. Vampires. Blood. Baseball bats. LSKDJFLSJDFLKSJDGLKJSDLGKJSLDKGJLDSKF. The SFX are gonna be SO BAD. Joss sucking Gawin's blood will be SO FUCKING GOOD. I AM STILL SCREAMING. OBVIOUSLY.
Kidnap: Ohm Pawat's next BL. While he had previously said that he wanted Bad Buddy to be his last BL, the bullying scandal that he encountered this past year makes this decision a sensible one to get back on the brand engagement train. His co-star, Leng Thanaphon, is gorgeous looks like he's making a strong debut. I am very happy for Ohm, but I think I am a bit spoiled by knowing his previous non-GMMTV oeuvre so well (Make It Right, Dew, He's Coming To Me), and I'm feeling like GMMTV isn't pushing his acting chops as much as they used to. (Meaning.... I'd be okay if he left GMMTV one day to do more movies.) Time will tell, but I am happy for him -- he is a king of BL, the most prevalent actor on the OGMMTVC list, and this'll let him rebuild his career. He deserves it, and is a personal fave of mine.
Wandee Goodday: YO. So obviously this looks intriguing! But like -- I'd expect Golf Tanwarin to be doing this for another network. Full-frontal, heavy (HEAVY!) sex talk, smoochin' everywhere. I'm impressed GMMTV is going here. It's perhaps because I have Domundi on the mind heavily with my recent ZeeNunew education, but I have been feeling as of late that GMMTV has been choosing fluff and/or crap romance (SEE: DANGEROUS ROMANCE -_-) over... pure sex, as it were, and this is getting closer to a Domundi-style show than even where Only Friends went. I LOVE THOR. I LOVE THOR!!!! I'm excited for this, and me likey the looks of Inn.
On Sale: I am LOVING this new we're-not-in-school-we-are-just-insane TayNew era. And Jan is a FAVE FAVE FAVE of mine, and looks like she's gonna level this show the FUCK up. I'm SO INTO THIS.
Pluto: For sure I am watching this for Film (oh, and hi, Thor and Arm!). I'm not the biggest Namtan fan? I wasn't the biggest fan of her acting in Midnight Museum or UMG. Kinda flat. But she's at the top of the popular actress list at GMMTV, and it's great that someone of her prominence is flirting in the QL space. Film, though -- Film has CHOPPPPPPPPPPS and will likely eat this role. We might never get EarnPear, but this might be close.
My Precious: For NanonFilm, anything. But this is just the movie with more scenes, right? I don't know if it was ever going to get international distribution as a movie anyway. K. I'll buy it!
The Trainee: Tell me where I've seen OffGun do movie shit before -- and I don't mind the slight theme repeat. KapookPiploy, huh? I have not seen Vice Versa, but I really enjoyed Sea Tawinan in that. Gun crying, not surprising, but I officially stan OffGun because of Not Me, and I'll stand by this one.
UMMMM
My Love Mix-Up: See here for my initial thoughts. I came to Thai BLs from Japanese BLs. Kieta Hatsukoi was one of the first JBLs I discovered specifically through Tumblr. Japanese BLs are so varied -- and I think, when one is watching JBLs, to have a gentle/general sense of how sex is perceived/managed/dealt with in Japanese culture. I'm not gonna get into this too much here, but the ways in which Japanese and Thai societies deal with sex is very different. Anyway. I think my own mental dissonance on this conversation is coloring my thoughts on My Love Mix-Up Thailand/Kieta Hatsukoi Thailand. Pairs are not repeated in Japan (unless you have second seasons of the same show), and to have an established branded pair in GemFourth in Ida and Aoki's roles -- I'm just, I'm not sure. I don't want the show to feel pressured to go to a place it wouldn't go to without a branded pair. Will Thailand pay homage to Ida's unique and inquisitive demi identity? Can the branded ship economy manage that? I dunno. Let's wait and find out.
Summer Night: I'm going to be gentle on this one. I like that Phuwin takes on various het roles. I happened to LOVE HIM in The Warp Effect. And I like Bimbeam in here -- she actually showed some firm chops in 55:15 Never Too Late. Only if the schedule allows will I take this one, but I actually like the smell of it a bit.
Ossan's Love: What in the EarthMix. Ossan's Love was often cited as queerbaiting material for early Japanese BLs (EDITING TO ADD: just want to clarify that that statement literally came from my early days in JBLs reading Twitter; thank you to @twig-tea and @nieves-de-sugui for the clarifications in the comments!); I have never watched it, but understand its importance in the Japanese BL repertoire. I'm gonna remain sus on this until we find out more. (Although, I'm VERY EXCITED to see a channel like TV Asahi break out of the Japanese paradigm of not collaborating with other countries to get this on Thai TV air. TV Asahi and TV Tokyo for Cherry Magic are real groundbreakers, and I do dig that.)
Only Boo: When I was talking about this show with friends, and @neuroticbookworm said "Book's in this," I WAS LIKE, WHO'S BOOK? LMAO. Let me see Book away from Force for a GOD DAMN SECOND. I know we don't know anyone in here, but the actors actually seem strong! This was a fun preview.
We Are: Lots of couples. PondPhuwin, MarcPawin, WinnySatang, Aou and that other dude. What is this, a New Siwaj show? I might have enough to watch next year without needing to watch ANOTHER school drama. We'll see.
LIKELY NOT
Enigma 2: Not a fan of Win Metawin, and didn't watch the trailer.
High School Frenemy: I understand this is a K-drama remake of School 2013, which I haven't seen. I... am trying to understand the story here, but happy for View/June/Mark/Prom to be in a show together, and I'll pay more attention when the show's closer to airing.
HARD PASS
Ploy's Yearbook: Did not watch the trailer. I understand there's a storyline with Joong's character romancing his adopted sister. HARD. NO.

Not hostility. 2. He had been stuck in a dungeon for a while partially because Nico lied to him. 3. Where? 4. Leo never knew Nico before and didn't know anything about him. Plus Nico was giving creepy vibes to everyone partially on purpose. 5. Where? 6. That's not what happened. 7. Again, Nico creeps pretty much everyone out partially on purpose. 8. That ESPECAIALLY never happened.
Oh so you do want me to keep going nice✨
Either way putting this whole answer under read more so it doesn't clog up anybody's dash cuz it got really long
Dude I don't know where your idea that he was being purposefully creepy comes from. He's literally denoted to smile at them a bunch of times even though Nico later one describes that emoting at all is difficult for him. If anything I would say that denotes he was trying to be friendly and it just didn't work.
He was for sure trying to stay away from them because Nico has a very hard time with living people plus living people who specifically seem to dislike him and only him.
But trying to keep your distance from a bunch of older kids you don't even know after you went through the most traumatic experience of your life plus the guy you are in love with just went missing together with his girlfriend isn't the same as purposefully going out of your way to creep people out just because
1. How the hell is not hostile to hope a child who was supposed to be under you special care dies a most painful death simply because it isn't convenient for you and your oppressive system that he lives. Maybe it's not personal but it sure as hell it's hostile.
2. Nico was said a dozen times to had been tricked by Hades, which he had no way of knowing he would have been tricked because yet again he's like 12 at this point Hades is his dad and prior to this had never lied to him.
Also love how you don't even bring up my point about Percy trying to hurry Nico up and wishing he could throw stuff at him so he would stop groaning while Nico had just gotten out of the jar. Funny
And yet again the point was to show hostility, it doesn't matter what motive there was for the hostility the only point was to show hostility against Nico, which I would argue pointing a sword at his neck it's pretty hostile.
3. Here
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. So what? That's not the point. First of all Leo did know Nico, not personally but he for sure saw how desperate to save Nico, Hazel his friend and a girl he was supposedly into, was. Also even if Nico was a complete stranger, he was literally a war prisoner, who couldn't even speak for a while, and actively needed his sword to even be able to walk.
I don't know about you but if I see a kid who has been kidnapped actively starved and literally went through hell, even if I don't know him, even if he's "Purposefully creepy" as you put him I'm still not gonna go out of my way to showcase to him how much he creeps me out and how much I don't like him, you know. Cuz basic human decency and all.
5. Yet again, here
Tumblr media
6. First the screenshot
Tumblr media
Yes Jason wanted to leave Nico in the jar, and you can say it was a strategic move, he was still abandoning Hazel's brother to his own slow demise. And that's still a bad thing to do, hell it breaks Hazel's trust in him to the point she starts thinking, what if I'm no good for the mission and he abandons me next.
He denotes that being a child of Pluto was hard enough as it was which means he does see being the child of one of the Chthonic Gods as a reason to be mistreated, and he's making the effort to not do that.
Which good for him but you know no other demigod gets that treatment it's only specifically the children of the king of the dead.
So yes that's literally just what happened.
7. Love how you don't even try to say that didn't happen because it was like straight up three chapters of that.
But so what? He's being creepy on purpose therefore he deserves to get chunked into water and left to his own luck? Really that's your point here?
First of all Frank is a good few years older than Nico, hell Frank has an almost three years gap with Hazel (Which don't quote me on this but I'm pretty sure before the reckon when Nico himself was younger than Hazel it was a full three years) so why is he having beef with his girlfriend's scrawny brother.
And Nico's not even being creepy on purpose. But hell even if you think he was being creepy on purpose to Jason or Leo to keep them away, when was he ever creepy on purpose to Frank.
Frank and him already knew each other previously, and Nico never had any issue with him, it's only said that he likes to tease him sometimes.
And right after Frank is done talking about how pissed at Nico he is, Nico literally tells Hazel he likes her boyfriend.
But Frank was already reluctant about Nico even from back when they were in Camp Jupiter while he wasn't hostile like he got during the Quest, he did denote that Nico wasn't like Hazel, which in turn got Percy to defend Nico.
So yeah, so what. I don't get your point yes everybody is creeped out by Nico. Nico doesn't like creeping people out.
But the whole point of that answer was to say yes everybody is creeped out by him and reacts hostile to him, you just saying yes they are all creeped out by him is honestly just telling me I am right.
It doesn't even matter if he does it on purpose after being on literal Tartarus, but he's not even doing it on purpose mate.
No not even partially, he's aware he does that, doesn't mean he's doing it on purpose.
8. I will say The Camp becomes a better place for Nico post-Solangelo but before that no not really.
Nico actually sorta has some friends in Camp Jupiter, and Hazel says they just look at him as a travelling oddball, on the other hand in Camp Half-Blood, Nico never once felt comfortable or like he belonged, he was always leaving because he always perceived hostility against him.
The only times that Nico's life in Camp is described as anything else than hanging in the shadows and running away is after he reunites his Divine family to go battle against Kronos together, and stop the world from ending.
That's said to us by Percy who is denoted to be a pretty unrealiable narrator especially towards Nico so who knows how trustworthy that information even is
But we know that doesn't last very long from Nico saying so himself, plus the fact that right after that book we come back to Nico having left yet again, and Annabeth the only remaining Camp as we are told the Camp literally falls apart if neither Percy or Annabeth are there to attend it 24/7 during TOA, only briefly mentions Nico as yeah the dark creepy kid who's gone right now.
So yeah I don't think he was super popular there neither, but I think it's pretty telling he felt comfortable in Camp Jupiter after being there for less than a year, and never managed to feel accepted by Camp Half-Blood even after three years

Essential Avengers: Avengers #282: CAPTIVES
Tumblr media
August, 1987
Prisoners of the GODS!
In one sense, prisoners of the gods, yes, that is going on. The Avengers are clearly imprisoned by one or more gods.
But did you ever consider that from the gods’ perspective, its a gotta catch ‘em all of the Avengers?
I mean, Neptune (geez Marvel, stick to either Roman or Greek pantheons ffs) went out of his way to catch Namor and Namor hasn’t been on the team since before the Masters of Evil thing.
That’s completionist energy.
Wait... is the Collector behind this? Yeah, he died but when has that ever stopped anyone in comics for long?
ANYWAY
Last times on Avengers: the Masters of Evil attacked the Avengers and managed to smash up the mansion and beat Hercules into a coma. There was a roster shake up as Thor and She-Hulk cycled back in, Dr Druid joined for some reason, Wasp went on a well-deserved vacation, and Hercules was in a coma.
That last point is the sticking point of this arc, it seems. Because Hermes kidnapped Hercules out of the hospital and then lured Thor to Olympus so Hephaestus and Ares could beat him up. While Hermes, Dionysus, and Artemis beat up the Avengers on Earth, partially by tricking She-Hulk into eating a drugged cherry Italian ice.
With the Avengers sufficiently beat the shit up, Zeus appeared to tell them they were on his shit list for letting Hercules make bad decisions and get beaten into a coma.
And rather than seek revenge on the ones who did the beating, Zeus is taking it out on the Avengers.
Because Zeus is a dick.
The story continues!
Tumblr media
The story continues with Namor minding his own business for a change, just enjoying hanging out with his new wife Marrina (oh hey, congrats!) when the ocean goes nuts with the shaking.
Namor saves some people that rocks fell on and then swims out with Marrina to investigate.
They notice some Atlantean refugees fleeing and go to help them because they’re the cool guys brave enough to join Namor in exile rather than live in Attuma ruled Atlantis.
But then Neptune pops up out of the ground, yells at Namor for questioning his will when Namor asks about the earthseaquakes, and then drags Namor down to hell.
Tumblr media
Saying “that happened” can be a cheap joke but really, the Atlantean refugees and Marrina standing around looking at the crack in the ground that a god popped out of and then sank back into after kidnapping their king has peak “that happened” energy.
Of course, I was joking about Neptune dragging Namor to hell.
He brings him to Hades instead.
Because god of oceans, he can just pop right out of the River Styx.
Neptune expresses some regret that things gotta be how they’re being and that Namor deserves better than this (open to debate). Why, if it weren’t for Neptune’s covenant with Zeus, Neptune never would have reverse raptured Namor to Hades.
But the brotherly covenant is a thing so Neptune turns Namor over to Cerberus to bring to Pluto.
EXCEPT HOLD ON
Tumblr media
THIS INDIVIDUAL MAY BE CALLED CERBERUS BUT HE IS NO CERBERUS OF MINE!
Greek god dammit, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, are there no monsters of myth you won’t just turn into a grimacing dude in Kirbarian armor??
Boo!
Anyway.
Namor comes to while I Refuse To Call Him Cerberus is hauling him across the dismal fields of Hades like a sack of damp potatoes.
The Abstastic Avenger slips loose and tries to choke Not Cerberus with his shackles despite the dude wearing a helmet that covers his throat. And Cerberus just breaks the chain anyway so the whole exercise was a little pointless.
Well, almost pointless.
Namor was looking for answers and he got answers and stepped on to boot.
Namor: Tell me now -- who are you? Where am I? Why have I been brought here? Speak!”
Not Cerberus: “You think to threaten Cerberus?! Truly you are bereft of all reason! Know ye, mortal, that Cerberus is guardian of Hades, land of the unliving! ‘Tis there you be... by the grace of my Master Pluto and the will of Zeus!”
Namor throws Not Cerberus off of himself and then decides that really what he needs to do now is take a nice refreshing dip.
Except the nearest water is the River Styx and its full of monsters and it flows into the River Phlegethon WHICH IS ON FIRE!
Tumblr media
He’s having a bad time.
Namor washes up unconscious on the shore observed by a shadowy figure.
But this is apparently one of those beneficent shadowy figures because when Namor regains consciousness again, he finds that his shackles are gone and burns that should have taken months to heal have gone away with a quick nap.
(Is Namor an JRPG character?)
(No.)
The shadowy figure introduces himself, or rather doesn’t introduce himself, but at least announces his presence and explains to Namor that he healed him with various poultices.
Oh, I see. Just an ordinary doctor passing by, is it?
The mysterious cloaked figure who pointedly does not tell Namor his name also tells Namor that he was brought to Hades to join the Avengers in captivity and WOULDN’T YOU KNOW IT, the Avengers are being held in the garrison of the accursed Fortress Tartarus just to the right.
Tumblr media
Can’t miss it.
Then the mysterious cloaked figure vanishes into the mists rather than answer any more questions.
Mysterious cloaked figure, vanishing into the mists: “I can say no more. The fate of the Avengers now depends on you! Do not fail them, Namor... do not fail”
I guess people don’t become mysterious cloaked and/or shadowy figures unless they love drama.
Anyway.
Namor heads to the doom fortress and finding no entrances makes one by punching the crap out of a drainage duct.
Where he immediately runs into some soldiers of Hades. Who he immediately beats up because he’s Namor. He also steals the armor off of one because yes, we’re going full... whatever you call this. Death Star infiltration? Its a trope and it definitely predates Star Wars.
Before long, Armored Variant Namor finds the deepest dungeon that the Avengers are being held in.
And I guess the order of the day is just random torture? The gods beat up the Avengers and threw them to Hades and now they’re just being randomly tortured?
Captain America is attached to a big wheel, Dr Druid is here for some reason and hanging from shackles, Captain Marvel is in a metal sarcophagus which is blocking her powers, and in an effective but cruel twist She-Hulk is chained to Black Knight.
Tumblr media
Maybe the dungeons of Hades didn’t have anything strong enough to hold her but by chaining her to Black Knight, they made it so the only way She-Hulk can bust herself loose is to tear Black Knight in half.
Afraid of the torturers using the imprisoned Avengers as hostages, Namor pretends he’s just another guard who wants to steal the spoils for himself.
He punches all the guards who are pawing over what they took from the Avengers, claims that its all his now, and dismissively throws away Cap(tain America)’s shield as gaudy.
It just so happens that the throw bonks the shield off the chains holding She-Hulk and Black Knight together but nobody notices that over what a dick disguised Namor is being.
His secret superpower is taking up so much oxygen in the room that nobody notices anything but ‘and now here’s this asshole.’
The torturer that was about to torture Black Knight goes to attack disguised Namor with Black Knight’s blade but freed by the shield bonk, Black Knight does that thing he can do that he doesn’t get enough chances to do.
He summons the extremely cursed Ebony Blade out of the torturer’s hands and into his own. And then he knocks out the torturer with the flat of the blade.
While She-Hulk joins disguised Namor in beating the crap out of the guards, Black Knight rushes over to cut Cap(tain America) loose from the big wheel. But Cap(tain America) tells him to free Cap(tain Marvel) first instead.
In fairness, she’s maybe their biggest gun.
Black Knight figures that the metal sarcophagus is probably enchanted to contain Monica but luckily Black Knight’s extremely cursed sword can cut through it.
Captain Marvel is ready to get some revenge for being locked in a box but She-Hulk and Namor didn’t leave any guards left unpunched.
But the breakout isn’t complete as Dr Druid notices that Thor isn’t in this dungeon so now they gotta go find him.
Of course, that just makes Namor wonder ‘hey actually what the here is going on here?’
Because he still has no idea what the plot is. He’s just been acting on punchstinct.
Of also course, the Avengers had no idea they were in Hades so everyone is a little surprised right now.
Captain Marvel does her Avengers chairperson duty of expositing the previous issue, to fill in Namor.
Actually though, the recap is only one panel and one additional narrative caption. The rest of the flashback is new content.
Pretty neat although it does mean that the entire previous issue gets smooshed down to ‘Hercules’ family ambushed us and took us to Olympus so Zeus could yell at us. What a dick.’
And yeah, what a dick.
When Zeus blames the Avengers for Hercules’ condition, Captains America and Marvel defend themselves by saying it was Hercules’ own dumbass that got his dumb ass beaten to near death.
Which... maybe not the best tone to take to a grieving, vengeful father?
Zeus: “Lies! I have learned how Hercules suffered your taunts and torments! I will not hear the lies of mortals!”
Thor suggests that maybe the truth will sound more believable coming from a fellow god and longtime friend to Hercules like.... well, Thor.
But Zeus takes the bold move of claiming that Thor isn’t Thor because hey what’s with that new armor. Also, even if you are Thor, screw you Thor, mighty Zeus don’t listen to a god that’s “so servile to mortal beings”.
Thor gets angry at being called servile and just FLEXES out of his bonds, then runs over and punches Ares who had the misfortune of being the wrong extremely punchable face at the wrong time and place.
But Zeus just zaps Thor, which I presume freezes or knocks out Thor. Dunno, flashback ends.
Either way, that’s how they got from last issue to now. And the bonds the Olympians put on the Avengers prevented them from using their powers. The Olympians knocked them out and then next thing they knew, they were in a dungeon.
Namor blames himself for being absent because maybe if he’d been around, Hercules wouldn’t have gotten so hurt.
Which Black Knight dismisses as ‘no, dumbass would still have managed it.’
The Avengers run into a massive army of Hades’ soldiers? Goons? Guards?
Why does Hades have so many employees??
Tumblr media
The Avengers start making short work of them because c’mon. They’re a faceless army of mooks. They exist to make the Avengers look cool.
She-Hulk even hits one dude with another dude.
The only thing they have going for them is numbers. Thousands of numbers.
But that’s just a ‘don’t let them surround you but do keep doing your cool moves’ moment, not a ‘we should retreat because we’re massively outnumbered.’
Dr Druid even gets to make some of the warriors see an illusory image of him to get them to hit each other.
Tumblr media
Pretty good.
I like that his powers require him to be a little creative.
Black Knight continues being a dude with a sword who doesn’t like hitting people with a sword. But he can hit other peoples’ weapons with your weapons to break their weapons.
The things that cannot be cut by his Ebony Blade, forged by Merlin, are next to none.
Captain America takes a moment out of punching dudes to watch Namor punch dudes and pines for him to rejoin the Avengers.
I swear, nobody likes Namor more than Captain America does.
And She-Hulk punches dudes but then grabs one and demands to know where Thor is.
This is the army of the dead so do they have anything to fear from her? I mean, aside from pain. Nobody wants to be punched by a Hulk multiple times.
Apparently the guy does tell She-Hulk where Thor is because the scene cuts to where Pluto is keeping him prisoner by having a giant rock block placed on top of him.
Is this comeuppance for all the people he’s pinned under Mjolnir?
Tumblr media
Also, like many fictional depictions of Hades/Pluto, he is just a jerk.
Pluto: “It has been centuries since brother Zeus allowed me any new subjects to do with as I wish! Having you at my mercy is a treat far sweeter than this honeyed wine, Asgardian -- you’ve interfered with all too many of my plans!’
Dang, Pluto Hades hasn’t been the same since his wife left him, I assume.
(It’d be funny if Persephone was around and was like ‘you’re doing great, dear’)
The guy I will never acknowledge as Cerberus comes in and tells Pluto that Namor jumped into the Styx so is probably super dead and Pluto calls him an idiot for just assuming that a guy called the Sub-Mariner wouldn’t survive being dunked in a dangerous river.
Instantly proven correct because the Avengers and Namor bust in right after Pluto tells Not Cerberus to go find Namor. Namor and She-Hulk punch Cerberus and knock him out and right on top of Pluto.
Tumblr media
Black Knight breaks the giant rock block on top of Thor with a pretty sweet sword throw and Captain Marvel CHOOMs Thor’s shackles off.
Captain America notes that Thor doesn’t seem alright lately and Thor decides to confide in his best mortal friends, the Avengers and also Dr Druid who is there for some reason.
You know the deal or should if you’ve read Walt Simonson’s run on Thor, which you should.
Thor: “The death-goddess Hela has put a curse ‘pon me... rendering my bones brittle and unable to heal, while granting me life eternal... so that I would have no escape from the pain! In recent days, I have known agony beyond imagining. I created this armor to hold together my shattered body, that I might still function as befits a son of Odin. I... regret I did not tell you this before.”
Pluto, who of course is still in the room and hasn’t even been too inconvenienced by having a not-giant not-doggo dropped on him comments that he wished he knew about Thor’s curse so that he could have arranged more painful accommodations than just putting a giant rock block on him.
Thor warns that Pluto’s power is second only to that of Zeus (wow, get fucked Neptune Poseidon I guess) which the Avengers doubt until Pluto shoots some pew pew blasts at them.
Its not really selling the second only to Zeus who is equivalent of Odin thing even if he says he’s trying to torment them, not kill.
Either way, Captain Marvel blasts the ground so Pluto loses his footing and then everyone RUN AWAYYYYY on her command.
Fall back, technically. Its the more tactical version of FLEEEE but either way its a retreat which Namor hates but does anyway.
And She-Hulk busts the door on her way out so it’ll be harder for Pluto to chase them.
Because yes definitely the room only had one entrance and I bet he can’t just OH YEAH through the wall, being second only to Zeus and all.
Since Mjolnir is trapped on Olympus and none of the other Avengers have portal powers, the Avengers head towards the only path between Hades and Olympus.
Tumblr media
THE PATHWAY OF INFINITY!
Its called a pathway, Thor calls it a bridge, and Black Knight calls it a stairway to heaven.
But it looks like a particularly wide ramp.
Cool of Olympus to be wheelchair accessible.
Maybe the grade is too steep? I really can’t tell.
The Avengers set up? down? the PATHWAY OF INFINITY! Thor tells Captain Marvel not to fly too high above the path because it is all the links the two realms of Hades and Olympus and to stray risks becoming lost in the abyss.
And Monica has gotten lost in an abyss enough for one life, thank you.
Unfortunately, it didn’t take Pluto long to catch up with his hell army and his giant hell tank and his giant hell tank blows up a portion of the bridge (he calls it a bridge. Can a pathway be a bridge? I swear, it looks like a ramp).
Tumblr media
The Avengers all stand near the broken portion discussing how they don’t have time to fly or jump across before the army of Hades is upon them.
Maybe if you spent less time verbally establishing that fact and more time hustling?
Also, the bridge looks a lot less wide now for some reason.
Thor volunteers to stay behind and hold off the hell army.
Which has to be reminding him of something in his recent past. I mean. A bridge. A hell army. Is he thinking of Skurge right now? Thinking it should have been him instead?
Didn’t Skurge bonk him on the head and send him away with the others at the time because he felt Thor was less expendable? Could be a survivor’s guilt thing.
I don’t know if that was on Roger Stern’s mind when he was writing this though. Could be a coincidence.
Anyway, Captain Marvel, as leader, tells Thor fuck that idea. They’re not leaving anyone behind.
Captain Marvel: “Stand or fall, we’re all in this together!”
Thor: “I cannot dissuade you? Then, so be it! Though every demon in Hades rises ‘gainst us, let the Netherworld rock with the power of the Avengers!”
Heaven or Hell, Lets Rock!
Gosh, how will the Avengers get out of this one?
I mean, the hell army is no big deal. They’ve already beaten up thousands of Pluto’s guards.
The big man himself and his big tank are more of a concern.
Also: WHY DOES PLUTO HAVE A TANK??
Follow @essential-avengers​ to learn the answer for why Pluto has a tank. Just kidding, I have no idea! Like and reblog please!

I'm sorry to concede that it's true, Sailor Moon S is VASTLY OVERRATED and it's my favorite one in the anime series. One can argue it's the beginning of the decline of Sailor Moon. It greatly deviates from the source material, the other girls get no power ups being stuck in their Star Power henshin and attacks, Chibi-Usa gets no Super form, and it continues the trope of finding whatever thingmajig in people's bodies that would continue into the next two seasons and the Guardians FUCKING useless.
It's really is overrated and I have been saying this for so long.
Some people say it's peak (which to me in the manga it is because Naoko was in her bag with this season), while I actually with you and say that it's decline of Sailor Moon for the 90's anime.
Because honestly if Haruka and Mic wasn't in it this season it wouldn't hold up well to be honest.
Because Usagi, Har, Mic and I'm going to say Mamo is carrying this season on their damn back so far with me being 19 episodes in.
Because if you take those four out along with Saturn and Pluto only thing you would have is Rei, Mina, Ami and Mako and think the Death Busters would have won if it was just those four..
Rei, Mina, and Ami aint doing shit but bullying Usagi while Mako is doing 1% . She only gets 1% because she did defeat a Diamon by herself. They are so damn weak and Usagi is pretty much doing everything by herself if Har/Mic or Mamo is not helping her.
They are letting Chibiusa be useless, a gotdamn joke and having her running around looking for a friend when that friend that is very important to the plot haven't showed up yet... Only thing she gets is damn barrettes from her Super Form but she doesn't even get her Super Form. ( I'm heading to that episode soon yall! lol)
I'm telling like it is because they did Hotaru/Saturn fucking wrong in this season because all she was a plot device. Hyping her up and only thing she did was throw fireworks at P90..
And P90...Poor Dude didn't have no speaking lines... Just a fucking moaning blob.
They say Mamo is useless but damn he was her only line of defense for two episodes and he dueled a Diamon and Kaionite with his damn cane. At least he's doing something in battles to help her out.
Rei had that dream about the world being destroyed two damn times and haven't told no one yet and we are now halfway into the season.
We only know how the tailsmans look like becasue Eudial was smart to ask Tomoe " Oh Hey Since I'm looking for these things, What the fuck do they look like?"
Har/Mic been running around Tokyo trying to find these damn things but playing blues clues with them and playing Civil War: Senshi Edition with the Inner Senshi. While Harkua is flirting with all the girls but Ami...
The inner senshi haven't done any homework in trying to find out how they look like, what they do, and why Har/Mic and the Death Busters want them. Or even trying to find out was they artifacts/ relics of the SliMil. They haven't even try to find out was there any other Senshi in the past that they didn't know about.
Well they are barely doing regular homework which they supposed to be doing since they are getting ready for High School Entrance Exam but I digress
And Setsuna..
Lord they going to do Pluto so damn dirty.. I can't wait until I get to that episode!
They are wildin with the fan service this season with these designs of the Diamon and then this shot right here..
Tumblr media
That's why her nickname is T.A.P. Might was well have her ass naked.. ( I haven't gotten to Har bare butt shot and T.A.P fully nude shot yet.)
This season is the reason why my Icon is this pic
Tumblr media
It just put all my feelings about this season into words "I'm so sick of this bullshit." lmao
I can't wait until we speed running the plot in the last few episodes!!
So yes this S season is overrated as hell.

Chapter 20 of Harrow the Ninth
The Nook app has returned to gaslighting me: I flipped forward to Chapter 21 from Chapter 20, then flipped forward to the end of Chapter 21 and was greeted with Chapter 20 again. It took some flipping back and forth for it to return to normal. I don't know why it's so difficult to make something that fundamentally just renders HTML files
Tumblr media
I see the hidden narrator is getting uppity again. You know, there's actually a bunch of stuff in the early parts of this book that seems kind of self-deprecating, or self-conscious, the narrative saying that Harrow is not good enough, or looks funny carrying the sword on her back and so forth, and when I read those I though, that makes sense, Harrow is a perfectionist and has reasons to be self-conscious about her appearance because her role for a lot of her life relied on her projecting a certain appearance to maintain the fiction that her parents were still alive and all that, but I wonder how much of that is actually the hidden narrator criticizing her instead
Tumblr media
"On the reg" does not sound like something Harrow would actually say, that sounds a lot more like something Gideon would say. I did discount Gideon being the narrator a while back because of the lack of jokes and also the narrator generally not talking about necromancy like it was dumb and didn't matter, and the narrator being concerned about Harrow's negative feelings about flesh magicians, but now I dunno
I'm curious how she brought this up to him specifically, since obviously if she calls him "Ortus the First" John is just going to go "who's that?" unless he's figured out what she's done, which I think is unlikely
What authority does John not consider himself to have the power to gainsay? A.L.? She was described previously as a bodyguard, which seems like the kind of person who would ask Gideon the First to make a pact to protect John, at any rate
Why does Gideon the First think that Harrow is a danger to John? Because of something about the sword?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, we finally find out what happened to Anastasia. So, the Mithraeum must have been built before she attempted to become a Lyctor, if there was a place on it reserved for her, at least. I wonder what "she'd seen some pathways that simply didn't exist" means - did she think there might be another way to do it other than the way all the other Lyctors did it? Was that way a more horrific, or less horrific way than the correct way?
I gather this is what Mayonnaise Uncle maybe was referring to back in Gideon the Ninth - I guess Anastasia was supposed to end her life by walling herself up with the Body inside the Tomb, and instead founded a new House of goths on Pluto with a somewhat oddball version of the necromancy religion
It's interesting that John thinks Harrow might be familiar with the Body, since supposedly no one has ever opened the Tomb. Even if he knew the full truth somehow, I think he would then know that Harrow is way more familiar with the Body than the Tomb at this point, anyway. Or maybe he just knows, or suspects that she went in there once but doesn't know about all the other stuff she experienced, which is, after all, mostly in her head
Tumblr media
I can't work out if this constitutes a confession of "yes I did open the Tomb" or not
Tumblr media
So this seems to be from a Poe poem about how the woman that some dude loved died because she was unfairly murdered by angels who were jealous of their love and then he worshiped her like a god, which sounds like a like, just incredibly well-adjusted take on that
But the initials of Annabel Lee are A.L., and this is supposed to be in answer to Harrow's question about who is buried in the Tomb. Does this poem accurately represent John's feelings about A.L., and is A.L. the person buried in the Tomb? This doesn't seem to match up, because the person buried in the Tomb is supposed to be John's ancient enemy, and also he described her as a monster. Or maybe he thinks the person in the Tomb killed A.L., and that's why she's his enemy and also a monster? Or maybe he just has a really weird relationship with her

"He's one drama away from havinv a mental breakdown, dude. Dad has been busy since the triplets arrived. Hes helping an uncle of mine, Kovu just moved out into his own home.
I moved in with Jaws, so he's dealing with having an empty nest.
Coffee and Kyra got married, hes trying to hunt down Kovus baby mama." Mavi growled lowly
"though, apparently that bitch isn't taking her medication anymore and her bipolar ass went to harass Kovu.
But yeah, he barely has time for himself at this point. " She sighed, worried dearly about her father. Girl your family can't catch a break, can they?
Finally G adds his two cents in
G: see I told you sans, wine didn’t give up on your *ss, his life is just falling apart~

Sero Hanta x reader : he was like the Sun
Tumblr media
Sorry in advance, english is not my first language /!/
Maybe it was your childish obsession with stars that led you to him.
After all, if you took a closer look, he was like the Sun.
Warm up your skin by his presence, blind your eyes with his quirky smile, attract you like your name was suddenly Earth.
Yes, Sero Hanta was the Sun and you were a fucking stupid planet named Pluto at 5.9 M from him.
Not Mercury the soulmate or even Earth the good friend.
You were a stupid stranger.
It’s pretty sad.
Having a crush on the guy that just took the bus the Friday night.
It was like observing the stars and remembering they’re just dead balls of fire.
Suddenly the sky felt less shiny.
But you were an optimistic Pluto.
-no, you were just a dreamer that romanticizes their life in their scenarios with some music in their bed.
So you continued to look at him every Friday.
Waiting for his yellow hat and his laugh.
Sometimes with a friend, sometimes not.
One day you even saw him at the TV, that was when you learn his name during the Yuei competition.
A future hero sounds good for him.
You can already picture him as the hero your dad loved before.
The comics one.
The Spider-man.
You guess Sero would be Elbow-man, or Scotch-man, but it sounds horrible to be honest.
So you kept Sun in your head.
And like you were in your childhood you looked at him, asking yourself if one day you could ever approach him.
You can burn yourself after all.
Or just discover the Sun’s secret.
It was a difficult decision.
How can you talk to him without seeming like a stalker ?
How people make friends in a bus ?
Did they say to the other “oh you’re taking this bus too, now you can’t leave me so give me your phone now?”
Nah.
It sounds horrible.
People were more like statues in the bus.
And the first to make eyes contact gains a judgmental look and questions his whole life.
It doesn’t sound like a friendship place.
‘Sorry to bother you, but my book just fell from my bag and is behind you so can I get it back please ?”
You looked up and saw one of his friend.
The Pikachu one.
You nodded and moved.
“Thank you so much,” he said.
‘It’s nothing’ you answered a little lost about how the book fell now you see, he doesn’t have any bag.
“By the way I’m Denki. My mother always told me to present myself to the pretty person. And you and I, don’t want me to deceive her.”
You chuckled.
“That was a horrible pick-up line.” you said.
‘Hey ! I tried, I mean I have the one about how you dad is a thief because he stole all the stars to put it in your eyes but meh.”
“I would have preferred this one if I’m honest.”
“What ?! No. No, no, no, I refuse that someone would actually like the most famous pick-up line. It’s so cheesy!”
‘I guess, I am.”
“You’re not, or if you are, then I’m Cinderella.”
“Guess your prince is waiting for you at midnight then.”
“I wish damn.” he said with a dramatic ton.
You smiled.
“I’m Y/n, I guess after this wonderful pick-up line I couldn’t hide you my name anymore.”
“I knew it !”
“So that was your purpose since the beginning. Did you throw your book behind a stranger in order to talk about your mom ?"
“Caught in 4k about your mommy issues, must hurt.” Sero answered behind him.
One moment your mind was distracted.
The Sun was here.
You didn’t have sunglasses.
You didn’t wear sunscreen.
And the Sun was here.
“You hurt my feelings Y/n” Denki said while he was faking crying.
Sero laughed and you smiled again.
‘ I didn’t say to you I broke three hearts per day ? It’s my job dude,” you joked.
“I told you so, Sero, they would break your heart.”
“I guess you were right.”
You raised an eyebrow, waiting for an explanation.
Sero stepped towards you and sat.
“Denki, here, ask me if I have to go out with someone in the bus who would it be ? And since I’m not into the elderly, the married woman or the businessman. I answered the pretty person at our right. But Denki didn’t take it well, because he thought I would answer him.”
“Of course ! I’m the perfection, dude ! I’m funny, flirty and pretty ! I have all the “y” !!!
“Dummy, too ?” you asked.
“No, this one is the exception.”
“Ordinary ?” Sero continued.
‘High-quality,” Denki answered.
“And I would love to spell all the words that end with a Y but this is my stop.”
“Oh the star is not here anymore.”
“I guess, it was fun to meet you guys.”
“It was fun to meet a cheesy star ! I hope next time, I would find a pick-up line that would work on you and that isn’t something my dad could say.”
“Too bad I have daddy issues for you; I guess”
“Damn Y/n.”
“Next time we saw each other, just say hi, I think that what other people do, you know.” You answered
“I will ! I can’t wait to see you again !
“Friday, that’s when I took this bus to go back home.”
“It’s a date, then.”
‘I hope not because if you’re going to take your date in a bus between the sweat of teenagers and the perfume of old ladies, you’re just going to kill their sense of smell.”
“Maybe that’s my goal and I’m the villain Nose-a-bond” Denki explained
You blinked.
Sero sighed.
‘It’s a pun with a French word“nauséabond” which means putrid and the nose. Our classmate gives us some French lessons when he’s bored.”
“Oh I see, I will remember“nauséabond”
“You get it.” Sero smiled.
______________________________
You were not the Earth.
Maybe Saturn.
You were closer but not enough to be called “friends.”
You saw Hanta and Denki all the Friday, well no…
You saw Hanta all the Fridays and sometimes Denki was here.
So yes, you and Hanta slowly bound with each other.
Sometimes it was just sitting together with earphones and left in silence.
And sometimes it was some discussions that made you laugh so hard that your abs scream.
It was pleasant.
‘You know, I always talk about this picture of Denki in a Patrick from Sponge Bob in heels, but I don’t have your number to send it to you.” Sero said.
“Smooth Sero, really smooth.”
“I’m friends with Denki.”
“He’s the opposite of smooth. He asked me if I was a happy meal because I give him a smile.”
“Well you have a point and I have one, so do you want or not ?”
“Will I receive a meme at 4 am and TikTok links that I would only watch two weeks later because I forgot ?”
“Sadly yes, and even more you will have some worried texts about how was your day and how to hide an explosion in a cake”
You blinked.
“An explosion in a cake ?”
“We didn’t want to awake Aizawa but Bakugo sweated a lot, so we have to find something that would hush the sound and the only thing was a cake.”
“...guess his hands were sweat”
“He’s sweat, just hide it.” Sero added.
You smiled and gave him your phone.
“Enter yours.” You said.
“I feel like a spy.”
You laughed.
‘I guess I’m James Bond, then.” you answered.
“And I’m Kim Possible.’
‘She was my childhood crush.”
“She’s something.” Sero confirmed ‘But I think I prefer you.”
“...are you a piece of butter to be smooth like that ? Dude calm down.”
“I just feel I needed to precise.”
“Don’t worry, I know Kim beat my ass if she exists. She’s incredible, and a spy and I’m incredible too but a student.��
“Start with the same letter.” Sero tried.
“But not the same ending and salary.”
He smiled.
‘Yeah. So Y/n, what is your career dream then, after finishing being a student ?”
“Well, I don’t know,” you smiled. “I always think I would be a doctor as a kid. I was pretty good at school, but it was just some facilities I had back then, so now I don’t know how to work and how to find my way because I was always told what to do.”
You realized the question was not that deep.
You just let your mouth dropped all your thoughts on Sero.
“Sorry, I...just forget that . And said I told you nothing, okay ?”
“No, I mean I wasn’t expecting that of course. But I understand. It must be difficult to find your way now while the other has all their lives to explore and to be themselves.”
“Yes, and you ? Always wanted to be a hero ?”
“Well if you asked me-

Earth.
That was what you were.
A friend.
A good friend that have texts of him now.
A friend that went to his house.
A friend that met his other friends.
A friend also with Denki.
“I guess I didn’t get burnt.” you said to yourself.
“Burn by you being hot or by the toaster ?” Denki asked.
‘What the fuck are you doing here ?!” you asked surprised
It was Monday.
‘We have a break. A part of the school was exploded, and not by Bakugo.”
“But you never took this bus before.”
“Yes, I wanted to see you.”
“...you don’t say that,” you realized.
“I don’t say what ?”
“You’ve been taking this bus since 1 pm with the hope to meet me.”
“...well.” Denki started.
“You have my fucking number, Denki.”
“It was fun ! I mean the driver even says yes and doesn’t make me pay.”
“I don’t know if you’re a genius or just stupid.”
“Both.”
“Hanta is with you or did you just bus trip alone ?”
“Alone, by the way I wanted to ask you a question.”
“Go ahead, it’s not like we don’t have time.” you said looking at the 15 stops that you have to pass by.
“Do you like me ?”
“Of course, I’m not sending a the Rock meme to a disliked person.” You answered.
“Not in the sens, I can kiss him and not say “cringe” after.”
“...you could say love.”
“Cringe.”
“...you just ask-’
“Answer Y/n.”
“No, not in the way I can kiss you and not say cringe after or wash my mouth or have the feeling that it was like kissing my wall : cold, weird and never happening again.”
“Yeah me too. And- wait, you...YOU KISS YOUR WALL ?!’ He screamed
‘Say it louder, in order to wake up my grandma from the dead, idiot.”
“Sorry.” he calmed down, “You kiss your wall ?!”he was whispering while screaming again.
“Yes. I was too young, lonely, thinking I would never feel love or being loved and I thought practicing could help.”
“Mouthes are not bricks.”
“Well-done Sherlock didn’t know that.” you said, “I was desperate.”
“That’s why you like Hanta, he reminded you your ex the wall, with his scotch elbows.”
“...I- what the fuck ?! No ! I don’t like him for that. Ew”
“Buuuuuuttt you like him ?”
“It’s kinda obvious Denki.”
“So Mina knows ?”
“She guessed.” You said.
“And Bakugo ?”
“Threat me that he would explode my body if Sero likes me back and I break his heart”
“...so I was the last.” Denki understood.
“No Sero is the last. He’s dense or he’s faking it. I don’t know. He’s flirty but we’re friends.”
“No he likes you, asked me how to ask you out.”
You smiled.
‘Good to know.’
‘Yeah, good to know that Bakugo stole my favorite sweatshirt and Mina my eyeliner because I lost this fucking bet about you two, damn.’
‘Never bet with them.”
“I know, but I was sure this time. You and sero are like my best friends, guys !”
“Sad for Kiri”
“He’s my bro, that’s different.”
___________________________________
“Denki told me, he told you,” Sero said the night after this meeting at the phone.
‘Yes, he lost a bet.”
“You know, I’m not talking about this, right?”
“I was waiting for you to be ready to say it.”
“Oh…”
“If you think we have to learn more about each other, or just try some dates or prefer to stay friends. I respect that Hanta. I don’t want you to feel pressured.”
“No I’m not. I didn’t know if you’ll say yes to be honest.”
‘ I am saying yes now.”
“Guess we’re dating then.” Sero said.
“You’re right.”
“I don’t know if I want to scream or to stare at my mirror and ask how I’m with a partner as amazing as you,” Sero declared.
“I think for my ears I would prefer the second, but if you do that, so I do.”
“Our mirrors would be pleased to see our faces then,” Sero joked.
“I think I would prefer your view.”
“And yours, for me.”
“Maybe we can see each other without mirrors, next time then?” you said.
“It’s a date, then.” You chuckled
Yes, maybe it was your obsession with the stars that attracted you to the Sun, but it was a Pikachu that connected you to him.
Maybe the system solar needed a Pokémon in their planets.
