TCF Upcoming Hunter Arc...
Hey, remember how I tend to call the Hunters "hackers" sometimes, because of how they constantly cheat their way to success and stuff?
Turns out I was more right than I ever realized before.
They are literally hackers. They're trying to use computer hacks on reality. They want to make video game logic real.
Alberu is right. That's some scary s*** right there.

Well that just happened.
I thought we were gonna go another 50 chapters before we got more existential stuff but I guess ORV has decided to pick up the pace. At least it wasn't absolutely terrifying this time around.
Well, not outwardly anyway. Dokja being immediately pulled back into reading and getting lulled into wanting to never leave the library is a little concerning. Though, on the other hand, it does make sense that the guy who's made TWSA his whole life for ten years, specifically reading it when he's going through rough times, and who's literally been living through an apocalypse the past year might want to just relax and spend the rest of his days resting in the library dedicated to the world he loves.
And it is a library. (Which may or may not be inside the Fourth Wall. Or perhaps just beyond it.)
We've pretty much gotten confirmation that there isn't just one TWSA and in fact there are alternate versions of the story, seemingly all happening at the same time at different paces. The fact that Dokja first picks up the 12th record of the third round when, at most, this should be the 2nd record if I'm understanding things correctly--the first being what Dokja read in TWSA and the second the story he's telling now. Even including the revisions that have been happening, that's not twelve. And then there's this too:
Some of the stories were already known and some weren't. "This information was forgotten…" "What? There was something like this?"
I'm interpreting this as potentially both stuff he's forgotten like it says but also stuff that never happened to him but to another Dokja.
Also, the records going up to at least the 1863rd round is a little concerning. Dokja's never mentioned a number THAT high when talking about his Joonghyuk.
Definitely thinking that Secretive Plotter & Joonghyuk's sponsor might be one or both of them from another version of the story that's somehow crossed over. Perhaps they crossed through the library as well but chose to return through a different book?
Secretive Plotter in particular being known to Devourer of Dreams and being called "the great plotter" and one of the oldest beings in this universe…Could he have been in the first version of TWSA? Also, Devourer of Dreams called Secretive Plotter "the one who fights against the Oldest Dream" while the wenny man back around chapter 255 or so called Joonghyuk "Puppet of the Oldest Dream." So Secretive Plotter and Joonghyuk's sponsor are enemies?? Or is Joonghyuk a "puppet" of someone else?
「 (I saved you once before. You must've already forgotten.) 」
Has it been Nirvana talking to Dokja all this time??? Was he the one who told him to turn off the Fourth Wall and spoke to him when he looked too long??
Also, Nirvana mentions that if they don't clean up properly he won't remember it. And also Dokja thinks earlier "Then I got a headache. The curled memories were breaking out like a eggshell cracking. This place that had just seemed unfamiliar now felt familiar." Is that what happened last time? He went to the library but lost his memory of it? Or has he been here even before just a few chapters ago? Could he have come from another world entirely and completely forgot, thinking that he was just a normal guy who happened to read this particular novel that became reality?
Nirvana really seemed like a mysterious sage. I felt strange. For the first time, a character learnt the secrets of this world. "How do you feel? Now you know that you are a character in a novel." Nirvana's expression changed at my provocation. 「 (A novel… is that what you really think?) 」
Hmmm, and on that topic, I don't know how to feel about this. I do know Dokja's attribute said Apostle rather than Reader. Maybe because the novel has become reality so it's not really "a novel" anymore? I mean, at this point, Dokja practically is a character and has been since the very moment this all started because he's no longer on the outside of the story. He is affecting things and things are affecting him.
「 (I like your story.) 」 I was embarrassed by the unexpected words. 「 (To be precise, I like the story you have changed. The sentences that feel your will, the context that contains things you don't say…)」 "…What are you saying now?" I stepped back in an awkward manner. I looked at his bastard and remembered his words before his death. 「(It isn't just me. All the beings here love your story.) 」 "Who else is in this place?"
Who else indeed. Was this where Secretive Plotter disappeared to for a while? I wonder what would have happened if Dokja's party attempted to use his modifier while he was inside…
Also, the fact that they're making a big deal of Dokja changing the story, just like with him getting revisions of TWSA based on his actions, it has to mean something. And Devourer of Dreams says "You are now someone who can't be controlled." Was he originally a character being controlled by an author and woke up one day?
idk I don't really have too many new theories besides starting to wonder if Dokja has always been a character (rather than me thinking he was TWSA's author who forgot). Just kind of jotting down some new clues. I'll probably save my future theory posts for when something actually proves or disproves one of them or if I think up something else.
I can't believe that it feels like we're about to reach some big revelation soon, the kind that you'd normally find at the end of the novel, and we're not even halfway through the story.

Damn I just thought about something. 😐 yes Takemichi can land a good blow on Mikey, but can he really beat his ass? I’m talking about beat him into submission..? Mikey is good at doing that - he literally loves to almost beat people to death (or to actual death in South’s case) but I don’t see Takemichi doing that. Mikey being Mikey I don’t think a couple of hits is going to be enough to defeat him, I mean look at his fight with Izana. Plus Takemichi is literally physically damaged right now - fucked up vision and hearing plus he’s coming off the heels of his fight with Kaku and Sanzu… 🙄
I just hope he becomes a bit ruthless in this fight because I can already see this making Mikey snap more and cause more of his “dark impulses” to come out. I just hope Wakui stays on this track - doing Takemichi right. 😭🤞🏾

Quick Notes: Chapter 266
Let's go!
"Soldier of Love" is a pretty cool title. Mashima should save this for whenever he gets to writing doujins.
It's crazy to think that Mashima's getting us back to remembering the theme of humans and machines living together. I will say that I'm glad this hasn't become a race thing.
If I had a nickel for everytime I saw an anime or manga that made AI a bad guy... I don't know, I could probably buy a candy bar or something...
It's not that Void isn't making some not the worst possible points about love causing problems for the world. It's just so against the genre and especially Mashima that we know he's a villain.
Honestly, it's crazy to think that Rebecca thought she could do anything in this fight. No one was going to move the needle in this fight, except for Shiki.
Well then. It's not like I forgot that Ziggy is just AU Shiki. My point still stands.
See you!

previous : part two
masterlist
author's note : i was watching 'the good bad mother' and idk what to say about it. i would to say thank you for enjoying this mini series of mine. actually i have no intention of continuing but seeing how many of you guys enjoyed the first part so i decided to make it parallel with the manga where i started with the first ever time leap by shinichiro then the death of shinichiro, time skip to kanto manji arc and now the ending. i also happened to watched the last episode of tokyo revengers so now i am bored so i decided to read the manga again and again until season three came out lol. so here's the last part of my 'my first story dedication' series because i love the band so much that i would hope that maybe one day my first story would make an ost for tokyo revengers eheh.
-
2003
i hate weak people. i love tough guys.
kenchin, baji, mitsuya, pahchin and kazutora. including me, the six strongest friends come together and formed tokyo manji gang. despite me suggesting tokyo manjiro gang, but the guys rejected the idea within seconds.
i like strong guys.
but that day...
2005
"watch over me, shin-nii."
i never anyone about this but i miss hoshiko. also because i feel bad for what i did to her. i loved her but i didn't know how to tell her. but it was too late. she already with shin-nii, watching over me.
and then i met these two people who'd change my fate.
kisaki tetta, with just strength isn't enough. what i need is darkness. the more i push it down, the more darkness overflows. i'll just give to my body and kill kazutora.
as i was about to swing my final punch, takemitchy stood in front of me. "takemitchy?" i muttered as takemitchy just smiled. "mikey-kun."
hanagaki takemichi, he wasn't the strongest one ever. but he stood up to me. even though he couldn't beat me, and easy to cry, before i could realized it and he's always there right in the middle.
takemitchy, why?
2007
"why are you getting up?" mikey asked, watching takemichi wobbling while getting up after mikey beaten him up. "do you think you can beat me? after i beaten you up into a pulp?" mikey asked as he just watching takemichi. spitting out blood, takemichi stabilized himself. "i made a promise to your future self." taking a step as the pain of his foot starting to take a toll on him. "to baji-kun." panting as he approaching to where mikey stood at. "and i promised draken-kun, that i cannot lose because," takemichi lunged himself to mikey, readying his punch. "the only one who can save you from the darkness is me!" shouting, takemichi launched himself before getting side-kicked by mikey, causing him to bounced back on his back.
"have you forgetten about hoshiko-san?" takemichi asked, making mikey halted his action of walking towards takemichi.
'mikey-kun!'
'here mikey-kun, your favourite one is the red bean paste right?'
as takemichi launches his way back to mikey once again, rage filled mikey's body. "don't you ever say her name!" mikey shouted and then he kicked takemichi right on his chest, causing takemichi to swayed back like before. "that's right, she would want me to save you too. like emma-chan." takemichi said again and with that, he was brutally kicked by mikey repeatedly where the other members of the two gangs couldn't even dare to interfere just like tenjiku-toman before.
looking back at takemichi, mikey stared at him like he was nothing, like worthless being. "you're seriously gonna die soon." mikey warned, wanting takemichi to stop. takemichi staggered on standing up, looking at mikey.
"come at me, mikey."
mikey feel the anger once again and jumped his way to kick takemichi. "why did you come back takemitchy? you've seen the video i left and i've promised to protect toman and hina-chan, didn't i?" mikey said. "i told you to forget about me!" mikey swung his fist and punches takemichi's face. "now everything i've done is useless."
takemichi stood up back to fight back and swung his fists towards mikey's way. "i came back because i knew what was wrapped yourself in. and i came back to save you." takemichi told him. "i've never known what a dark impulse is, from what waka said, the dark impulse was born out of love." mikey said, making takemichi confused even more. "that man turned back time to save me." mikey told takemichi, as takemichi just stared at him. with blank eyes, mikey stared back at takemichi.
"sano shinichiro is a time leaper."
-
"he gave the time leap power to some random kid." wakasa told them as he told back the story of what sano shinichiro told him before he died.
"after he gave you his power, days later he died." mikey continued while looking at takemichi. "this dark impulse's real identity was the curse from shinichiro killed the time leaper." mikey said as he placed his hand on his chest. "it affects those around me and, it's eating me alive." mikey said, looking at his chest where he could feel his heart beat racing.
takemichi slowly approching mikey. "you don't have to hold it in anymore." takemichi informed mikey, making mikey looking up at him. "i formed the second generation of toman to save you so release that dark impulse, mikey." takemichi said. mikey dropped his hand from his chest as he could feel something evil lurking out of him.
"whatever happens, it's on you."
with that, mikey didn't realize what happened next.
-
the fight goes on with mikey grabbing a katana from haruchiyo. and mikey wasn't even himself as smirk follows. the persona inside mikey wasn't even mikey at all. mikey swung the katana and cut a slit upon takemichi's right arm.
"don't you get it hanagaki? you can't break the curse!" haruchiyo shouted as mikey smirked. "they have been merged together that and everyone who are close to him ended up die!" haruchiyo continued.
"and everyone who tries to save him from thr darkness will ended up dying, you're gonna die hanagaki!"
with that, takemichi have been stabbed by mikey.
stoned, mikey has been pulled into a hug by takemichi with the katana buried in his body. "i'm not gonna lose, manjiro because i will shoulder this dark impulse." takemichi said to mikey's ear. "if you're gonna act stupid, i will take you down because you're my friend for life." takemichi continued and after that, blood coming out of his mouth which apparently he was stabbed by the chest.
"friend?" mikey mumbled to himself. within that, the darkness in him went gone and mikey realized the situation he's in. "takemitchy..." mikey looked at the person in his arms. "take my hand, you're the trigger mikey-kun." takemichi informed as he was shakingly grabbing mikey's hand. "what are you saying takemitchy?" mikey said slowly.
staggered, takemichi fall onto his knees. "oi, takemitchy!" mikey shouted, as everyone around were all stunned. "i..." takemichi said slowly, coughing out blood even more. "will go back to past, over and over..." takemichi continued saying throughout the blood. "that's enough takemitchy!" mikey warned. "so that i can smile with you, and everyone that we love and close to heart." takemichi said.
the light was dimmed. mikey felt no movement coming from takemichi as he lightly shaking takemichi's body. not moving or reacting, takemichi fell onto mikey's chest. "AAAAAHHHHHHHH!" falling onto his knees, takemichi fell onto his laps and mikey repeatedly shaking takemichi in order to wake him up. sobbing, mikey grabbed takemichi's hands. "i distanced myself so that none of this would happen! open your eyes, takemitchy!" mikey shouted as tears falling out of his eyes, not wanting to accept what it is happening right in front of him.
-
1998
hearing a banter, hoshiko shocked by the noise which soon followed by a punching sound. emma got up and left hoshiko in the living room to see the ruckus. hoshiko stood up as well and followed emma. "oi keisuke!" emma shouted as she placed her fists on her waist. "don't fight in front of other people's house!" emma pointed out and takemichi looked at emma. "emma-chan.." then he looked at the girl next to emma. "hoshiko-san.." hoshiko weirded out as she looked at takemichi. "do we know each other?" hoshiko questioned. "oi what is this ruckus all about?" a voice said walking towards where everyone is at. "oi keisuke, what's going on right in the morning huh?" it was shinichiro. "you're being too loud." shinichiro mumbled. "wait, who are you?" shinichiro asked takemichi, causing the kids there were looking at him as well.
takemichi felt awkward as he realized that he has time-leaped into time where everyone hasn't met him yet. "huh, who are you?" it was mikey. can't believe his eyes, takemichi's eyes got teared up. "mikey-kun.."
"you're, takemitchy? realized mikey, as he remembers those eyes. takemichi stared at mikey and he shocked by the nickname. 'how could he-'
"is it really you takemitchy?" mikey asked. "huh.." was all takemichi uttered out. "no way.."
"WE TIME-LEAPED TOGETHER!" and with that, the two of them went off running. "what's wrong with them?" shinichiro asked. "beats me." keisuke replied.
"mikey! don't forget to come back for dinner!" hoshiko reminded as she waved her arm.
2017
"will do!" mikey replied as takemichi stood in front of the sano residence, on his bike. mikey ride on the back as takemichi turned on his bike given by mikey as present during their youth. hoshiko stood in front of the sano residence gate, watching mikey and takemichi. "be safe okay, make sure everything is well prepared." hoshiko reminded, making both mikey and takemichi chuckled. "okay got it hoshiko-chan." takemichi replied. hoshiko smiled as she rubbing her pregnant stomach.
in 2005, mikey accepted hoshiko's confession as encouraged by emma one day while preparing chocolates for valentine's day. starting from there, even being the captain of toman, hoshiko accepted mikey for who he is and mikey for who she is. hoshiko became of the woman of toman and was well-protected by the members of toman as a sign of loyalty to the captain.
in 2008, shinichiro married to someone he met at his shop. he knew that was a love at first sight and the girl was also a motorbike enthusiast, same as him. also mikey and hoshiko graduated from high school. with support from her parents, hoshiko pursued her studies in collage in journalism so now hoshiko is a chief editor in one of biggest magazine company in tokyo.
married to mikey in 2015, both of them are now a proud parents-to-be. the baby will be due during autumn time. both of them are the current residence of sano residence with sano mansaku since both shinichiro and emma moved out right after getting married. nevertheless, both lived near so whenever there are family events, they won't missed it. shinichiro continued working in ss motors alongside with his wife as co-owner and emma as a housewife to draken, who works with mikey as his mechanic for top of manji, mikey's motorsport team as he is the racer for the team. as for izana, he continued living in yokohama as director of tenjiku, which he occasionally travelling but still based in yokohama.
life is nice when you are surrounded with good people.
july 11, 2017
the day has comes by and it is now takemichi and hinata's wedding day. the venue itself was extravagant. fillied with toman's former members, which all of them are really living the life.
hoshiko took a seat which has been assigned her name which with the rest of the sano family. mikey went to the groom's dressing room to congratulate takemichi himself. hoshiko already met with hinata with emma but left first since the pregnancy itself has been exhausting for hoshiko. "oh shiko-chan!" shinichiro's wife greeted as she took a seat next to hoshiko's left. "nee-san." hoshiko greeted back, bowing her head lightly. "where's mikey?" shinichiro asked as he took a seat next to his wife's left. "he's with the groom." hoshiko told him as he nodded his head. "ah."
"hello family." izana greeted as he took a seat next to shinichiro, shaking his hand. "how's business 'zana?" shinichiro asked and shinichiro's wife rolled her eyes, shaking her head. "men and business, am i right shiko-chan?" shinichiro's wife asked, making hoshiko chuckled. "yerp." hoshiko replied.
then mikey pop-ed out of nowhere and took a seat next to his wife's right, followed by emma and draken. everyone else also took their assignated seats and then the ceremony begins.
"groom takemichi, do you take hinata as your lawful wedded wife to cherish and promise to be faithful to her for as long as you both shall live?" the minister asked and as he finished asking, he looked at takemichi which makes mikey looked at his wife. realized that mikey turned his head, hoshiko looked at mikey, smiling lightly. "what is it?" hoshiko asked whispering. "i love you." mikey whispered back, making hoshiko blushed with the sudden confession.
the vow exchanged to hinata and mikey continued on looking at his wife. "you know you suppose to say it back right?" mikey whispered and hoshiko giggled as she detected an upset mikey. placing her hand on his left cheek, mikey leaned into it. "i love you too mikey, for as long as i shall live." hoshiko whispered back, reciting her vow from two years ago. smiling, mikey grabbed his wife's placed hand and kissed her palm. intertwined their hands together, mikey placed it on his left thigh, continued to watch the ceremony as both takemichi and hinata now exchange wedding rings.
"you may now kiss the bride." the minister announced and without a blink, both groom and bride kissed to seal the vow and everyone starting to cheer and clapping hands.

No matter what words I look for
"I love you" isn't enough
You’re the only, you’re the only, you’re the only one
I love you from the bottom of my heart

2005
one afternoon on monday where during recess time, hoshiko and mikey met at the rooftop of their school as promised between the two. "here, mikey-kun." hoshiko said as she held out a box towards his way, bowing her head 90 degrees. mikey looked at the box and then looked up at hoshiko. "what's this?" mikey asked but hoshiko keep on bowing. "please accept it." was all hoshiko said and then mikey opened it to reveal a box of things like chocolates, other sweets and a letter.
mikey took out the letter and read it instantly.
'dear mikey-kun, happy valentine's day. i hope you like the present that i gave to you. i just want to say this right but i am too nervous to say it in person so here's why the letter exists. i like you mikey-kun and i hope you would return the same feelings as well. hoshiko xx'
mikey looked at hoshiko as she was fidgetting with her fingers while looking at her shoes. smiling, mikey took hoshiko's hands into his. hoshiko looked up at him. seeing how mikey smiled at her, hoshiko's face becoming more redder than ever.
"hoshiko, i like you too."
the end ♡ thank you for enjoying this special series of mine!

Spoiler alert. Chapter 266
There's Goemon again with his back turned to us but the Misfits can see his visage. Why is Nishi sensei hiding it from us? And in the second pic he's standing in a strange way but why. Picero looks relaxed so I guess there's nothing much to worry...but still why do I feel like there's something else. I wish the raw chapter will be updated i can't wait anymore. Complete spoilers here. The tweet says a demon won a "spectacular promotion" who's that? Goey? ARE YOU IN YOUR EVIL PHASE OR DID YOU SWITCH PLACES? Even Soi soi makes colourful appearances nowadays. Come out of the text bubbles you Degozaru samurai

I love just sitting here, seeing peoples reactions to the end of Nanbaka on different social medias (everyone seems slightly traumatised by it /lh) not knowing anything that’s going on. Like, I’ll get there eventually, I’m up to chapter 266! I’m just terrified of getting to the end of it cause of the reactions 🥲
(No spoilers though please, like I don’t want to be spoiled lol)

Author Interview
Tagged by @eemamminy-art
Putting a read more because this baby is looong....
1. how many works do you have on AO3?
Currently 72! It would be more if I posted all of my Tumblr snippets separately lol
2. what's your total AO3 word count?
467,534 words.
A decent bit, I think. Though I started writing again in 2015, so maybe it's not much? It's not everything I've written on Tumblr, either.
3. what fandoms do you write for?
I used to write for FF11 & Inu Yasha, plus Inu Yasha & Yuyu Hakusho crossover fic. I never deleted my fanfic dot net account, but it is all super old now. Nobody go looking for it! I may one day rewrite some of those old fic, but confronting my teenage writing skills is a bit much for me right now lmao.
My Ao3 is all FFXIV at this point, but that is subject to change! I have a c0mmission from Divinity: Original Sin 2 I'm currently working on! (Ifan. He's such an interesting, handsome guy. I'm having fun writing him~ ❤️)
I am interested in writing for other fandoms! For instance, Nu Carnival that is currently one of my favorite games, and possibly BG3? But I only know of it, haven't played it, I'll have to do research to write for it.
I just need to work through my current queue first!
4. what are your top five fics by kudos?
I'm gonna go by actual chaptered fic, not just my collections of Tumblr snippets.
• Drowning in Blue:
https://archiveofourown.org/works/4679429/chapters/10680896
Kudo count: 460 ❤️
Haurchefant/Warrior of Light (reader insert).
Summary: The Warrior of Light is granted a wish from Hydaelyn after being gravely wounded in the fight with the Ascians.
I have a lot of love for this one, however I would like to go back & edit it to make it more friendly to nonbinary & they/them readers. I do enjoy the writing style I have in this one. I do remember writing chapter after chapter of this one, day after day. A lot of passion there.
• In plain sight:
https://archiveofourown.org/works/4333374/chapters/9826917
Kudo count: 385 ❤️
Yet another Haurchefant/Warrior of Light (reader insert).
Summary: The Warrior of Light has fled from Ul'dah to take refuge in Camp Dragonhead after being accused of treason. Though dark times have forced them there, it is in Camp Dragonhead that potentially disastrous shenanigans ensue. Much Fluff with attempts at humor. Haurchefant x WoL. Tataru and Alphinaud friendships.
This one! The fic where I created Ger! Another one I would like to edit to make more friendly to non-binary & they/them readers. I'd also like to update Ger's characterization, because she's an entirely different character now! But I really enjoyed writing this fic. It was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed exploring Haurchefant's character & building up the relationship between him and WoL. I had a sequel planned & everything. I'd still like to write that sequel eventually. I have a draft on my computer for it lol.
•Switching Roles:
https://archiveofourown.org/works/9899933
Kudo count: 266 ❤️
Summary: Estinien lies in wait for Aymeric. This is also porn. Can be stand alone, but more like a sequel to Sweet like birch syrup.
Estinien and Aymeric were my first foray into writing smut, not just fading to black or ending at the buildup & making people ask in my comments "that's it? where's the rest of it?"
Oh, how far we have come since then! I used to say I was strictly a fluff/romance writer with occasional angst. Now look at me. 95% pure, explicit smut!
•Peculiarity:
https://archiveofourown.org/works/36427720/chapters/90829135
Kudo count: 244 ❤️
Hermes/Warrior of Light (reader insert?) from Hermes POV.
I won't post the summary because it's kinda sorta Endwalker Spoilers! Sorry!
I will say that this fic is my current baby. I love Hermes sooo much. I relate to him a lot. It makes me very sad that so many people in fandom seem to hate him. My poor, misguided little meow meow.
Yet another character I ship with Ram, in theory, but as of yet not in written practice. Just vibes, just brainwyrms doing loops in the old noggin.
•The Cats Meow:
https://archiveofourown.org/works/4508475/chapters/10253364
Kudo count: 243 ❤️
Haurchefant/Miqo'te WoL (reader insert)
Summary: Haurchefant notices the cat-like qualities in the Miqo'te!WoL. Attempts at humor and fluff.
Ok, this one is just silly fluff. Much romance. Very cute. Meow. This was around the time I was still playing my miqo'te, before I left her standing by Haurchefant's desk before level 57.
6. what is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Eyes Ever Heavensward
https://archiveofourown.org/works/29054034
Kudo count: 33 ❤️
Haurchefant/Warrior of Light (reader insert)
Summary:
The one where Haurchefant is a member of the Heavensward, and WoL is storming The Vault. Angst. Feels. Unhappy Ending.
Ok, I probably have a few angsty ones but this one made me cry while I was writing it. I think it's just angstier because of what WoL is forced, with no other choice, to do in the fic.
:( ͡° ᴥ ͡°)
7. what's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
I have so many that end on positive/happy endings. I can't really say what is the happiest. Maybe fix-it fics?
8. do you get hate on fics?
Not so much on fic. I have gotten some mean/malicious anons on Tumblr, but not since my fanfiction dot net days have I gotten "flames" or somebody sending me a link to my fic being posted on "gaff" (god awful fanfiction). That was really mean lmao.
I just end up deleting hateful comments, anons, etc. Who wants to waste time on that?
Attacking or harassing real people over fiction is utterly ridiculous and I will never condone that.
9. do you write smut? if so, what kind?
Hello, so much smut!
I can write super explicit stuff that is really raunchy, or more flowery/romantic types. Fun, silly, sweet. Darker themes. I'm pretty flexible when it comes to writing smut.
10. do you write crossovers? what's the craziest one you've written?
I have. Probably RP? The other crossovers I've done are nowhere near as crazy as things can get in RP.
11. have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I'm aware of??
It's harder to pinpoint with writing, I think. People can have similar ideas, plots, or just enjoy similar tropes.
Unless someone is copying your work word for word, lifting scenes, or using it for A/I... (A/I images & text are theft. We want A/I to help people, not to replace human creativity with regurgitated trash that has no human soul.)
12. have you ever had a fic translated?
I think I had someone ask at one point but it was some time ago. I don't even remember what fic it was.
13. have you ever co-written a fic before?
Does RP count?
Brainstorming, bouncing ideas off one another. Or even just doing prompts & requests... I think that counts as creating together, if not actually "co-writing".
14. what's your all-time favourite ship?
I have so many!!!
For FFXIV in particular, it's probably still tied between Haurchefant/WoL and Zenos/WoL at the top. Ships with Ysayle or Foulques!! Ships with NPCs that are job class or side characters.
I am really fond of Emet/WoL, too. Tbh, any Scion ship or Ascian ship.
I love them all...
15. what's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
Don't call me out like this 😔
I want to finish so many...
Ones that I feel I have to edit to add to them, maybe? I just don't have the free time to do so right now.
16. what are your writing strengths?
Hmm. Research and dedication to accurate characterization??
Dialogue, I think, because I enjoy it very much, but that could also be marked in weaknesses because I struggle with certain characters. (Smart characters. Characters like Urianger who have a particular way of speaking, etc, etc.)
Setting the scene. Word counts go crazy with that.
Descriptive writing and character introspection. I can dive deep into that.
17. what are your writing weaknesses?
Definitely perfectionism. I'm never satisfied. I want every fic I write to be a home cooked meal. Michelin star.
Also run on sentences and my love affair with commas, em dashes, and semicolons.
Keeping the tenses consistent.
World building.
Overworking. (Set word count? What's that? What if 3k fic became a 6k fic became a 9k fic. Oops.)
Having time/energy to write. That's a big one. 🥲
I'm a caretaker for my disabled sister, the designated chef of my household, and just constantly busy every day. I try to squeeze in writing where I can, but some days I'm just so tired and drained that I have basically nothing to spare for my creative pursuits. It's a definite struggle to work through that.
18. thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I like to read it! It's especially fun if it's a fantasy language like vulcan or elvish.
Unfortunately, I only speak English, and even writing in my first language can be difficult. I don't know any other languages well enough to even attempt writing in them.
19. first fandom you wrote for?
Inu Yasha, DBZ, FF11. All when I was a teenager.
Then I didn't write again for years and years. Started up again with FFXIV.
20. favourite fic you've written?
I have so many I love, I can't pick one favorite... I'll just list a few of my favorites right now!
XIVSapphicWeek Snippets
https://archiveofourown.org/works/45529894/chapters/114564367
Ram x Ysayle & RamLynn
(Lynn belongs to my RP partner, @/lynnslight )

•Peculiarity
(Yes, again. I'm posting it twice)
https://archiveofourown.org/works/36427720/chapters/90829135

•A (Primal is a) Wish Your Heart Makes
https://archiveofourown.org/works/29186616
Angst. Gerchefant? Primal Haurchefant. I have a WIP of the next chapter & it is angst and smut.
(You know what's funny? I've written/posted more Ger smut than Ram smut lmao! Sorry Ram. I love putting Ger in situations 😌❤️)
.....
Favorite series?
Amnesia Zenos, Villain Haurchefant, any Ascian fic (particularly fond of Attracting Ascians, I need to write more for that one.)
Amnesia Zenos
•Dancing In The Dark
Zenos x reader Insert WoL
https://archiveofourown.org/works/16868251/chapters/39610297
Summary: If Zenos had lost his memory, and WoL was the one to find him.
• Dancing In The Dark - With Two
Zenos x reader Insert WoL
Summary: One with Amnesia, the other without? Two Zenos? You can barely handle one.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/16868563/chapters/39611086
Villain!Haurchefant
•Villains and Heroes
Summary: “Shh, it’s alright,” the villain said. “You’re doing beautifully and I’m so proud of you. But that’s enough now. It was cruel of them to make you fight me - you could never have won. It’s not your fault.” Villain!Haurchefant
https://archiveofourown.org/works/16868086/chapters/39609883
•Attracting Ascians
Ascians x reader insert WoL
https://archiveofourown.org/works/29053515/chapters/71312748
Summary: The Warrior of Light attracts Ascians like moths to light. Or the one where WoL Kisses Ascians instead of Killing them. (ARR. Early? Maybe. IDK, who cares about Canon, this is Fanfiction.)
....
Special mention to my WiP fics I haven't posted yet except for some snippets like that Ram x Zenos smut, the dark themed/dubcon Fandaniel fics that I'm excited about.
Also the Nu Carnival & Obey Me! fic I started that I want to eventually sit down and properly write...
(I know. Fic that isn't FFXIV? Gasp.)
And of course, the comms!!
I really try to write every comm I get like I'm cooking a homemade meal for someone.
I made it for you. Take a fucking bite bro, I love you man. (Gender neutral uses of 'bro' & 'man', ofc. It's like saying 'dude' to me lol)

Anyway, thanks for tagging me ❤️
If any of my followers would like to do this, I'm tagging you! 💕

Shinichi's Perfect Rival?
spoilers for Chapters 350-354 (Episodes 266-268), and very minor spoilers for Chapters 981-983 (Episodes 885-886) and 1039-1042 (Episodes 1024-1025)
There are many potential rivals to Kudo Shinichi in the Detective Conan universe. First, there's Hattori Heiji, the "Great Detective of the West" to Kudo's "Great Detective of the East". There's Kaito KID, who's the modern-day Lupin to Kudo's modern-day Holmes. But of all of the characters, there is one person who would be an even better rival than Heiji or KID. Someone who mirrors Shinichi as a detective, while also being morally at odds with him. That someone... is Ooka Momiji. Yes, the rich girl from Kyoto. Let me explain.
Okay, let’s start with the first piece of the puzzle: Momiji’s detective skills. In one case, she is implied to have come to the right conclusion before Shinichi, Heiji, and Rei while not even being in the same city as them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Neither Shinichi or Heiji has shown much ability to solve cases without being present at the crime scene itself. The best comparison I could make to Momiji's feat would be the time when Kudo Yusaku was reading the newspaper on a murder and figured out the solution to a case.
Tumblr media
This isn't the only time when Momiji demonstrates her detective prowess, though. It's just the most clear. Another time, she gives a hint in the middle of a sentence which gives Heiji and Shinichi the needed information to solve the case.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the case where the code is solved by 'adding' and 'subtracting' different parts. Now, this leaves a lot up to interpretation, and I definitely didn't see this scene as Momiji being a really good detective when I first watched it, but if you really think about it, there was no reason for her to say "add" and "subtract". She could have just as easily said "The restaurant should make the food cheaper since the lines are so long." Which, now that I'm thinking about it, makes zero sense since that would only increase demand and make the lines even longer. So, my guess is that she was looking for a time to smoothly give the "add" and "subtract" hint, and found the perfect opportunity to say it.
(She did act surprised when they came up with the answer, but I'm just pegging that up to excellent acting. Wait, is she both of Shinichi's parents at the same time?)
Now, if Momiji solved the code before even talking to Heiji and Shinichi, that leaves a big plot hole. Specifically, why doesn't she just... go to the area herself (where she knew the guy was supposed to be) and potentially stop a murder from happening?
Well, the answer is actually very simple. Momiji is a brat who cares more about marrying Heiji than the life of an innocent person.
In the cases she appeared in she showed little to no interest in solving the case, instead usually pursuing Heiji. Even in the Cafe Poirot case, her motive is purely to 'help Heiji'. Despite being brilliant at it, she just does detective work whenever she feels like it. Also kinda like Yusaku, now that I think of it.
Anyways, I’m getting sidetracked. Let’s talk about Shinichi’s beliefs. Shinichi, unlike Momiji, actively pursues justice, that being the main reason he fights against the Black Organization for the same reasons. His moral compass even guides him to save the lives of people who attempt to kill others, just because he sees that the life of a person - any person - matters, even going out to say:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, you have a detective who pursues justice and values his moral compass, and a detective who completely acts in her own self-interest. Seems like a perfect basis for a potent rivalry.
Now, why does it have to be Momiji? Why not his father, Yusaku, since he holds a lot of similar traits and has a closer connection with Shinichi already? Well, Yusaku is Shinichi’s superior, and Momiji is his peer. Shinichi might begrudgingly accept the fact that Yusaku is better than him and doesn't pursue the truth, but he most certainly would not accept Momiji being either of those things. And Momiji, who expects respect from others, would react very poorly to this.
If Momiji learns about Shinichi’s secret identity as Conan, she might blackmail him to be supportive of her advances on Heiji or something, causing him to hate her even more. As is, Shinichi would be poised to see her as a disdainful rival, but might try to blackmail her back to have her help him hide his identity.
However, putting Momiji at odds with Shinichi would do more than create tension against each other. It could easily give Momiji some more character dynamics. Currently, her only real dynamic is the love triangle with Heiji and Kazuha, but if she was rivals with Shinichi she would be able to have more interesting relationships with Shinichi, Ran (if she sees the rivalry happening), maybe even Heiji and Iori. And character dynamics lead to character growth. Spending more time with Shinichi could let her mature and become less selfish and spoiled.
For Shinichi, he gets a rival that is also a detective, but also ideologically opposes him for more than five seconds (Heiji, I love you, but you moved away from rivals to friends with Shinichi... very quickly.) And this conflict with Momiji can make Shinichi rise to become a better detective, and could give him a new ally that could help with the takedown of the Black Organization.
Who knows, maybe they develop into friends after a long time. Maybe they never develop a respect for each other. Either way, I believe that Momiji would be the perfect rival for Shinichi: they are both very skilled detectives (and if I had to give one an edge I'd give it to Momiji), but they have different priorities and goals which cause them to butt heads.
So... I hope you enjoyed reading this essay as much as I enjoyed writing it, and have an amazing rest of your day.
