Fukuzawa: Fatherly raise-eyebrow look. Chuuya: Eheheh…eheh…oh come on… Also Chuuya: Slowly looks to Shin and specifically looks at Akutagawa Atsushi: Awkwardly raises arms Chuuya: Stumbles over, tries to raise his arms to hug them both and pulls away last second Nope. Nope. Can't do this. I'd rather vomit. I actually can't look at his face. Jogs over to where Dazai was while watching from the side-lines Dazai: Chicken. Chuuya: Oh shut up, dumbass. You would have killed them had they touched me. Hiss.

------------

Dazai: Wanna see a magic trick? Chuuya: takes a moment before he understands Oh shit- Atsushi: OOh, sure! Dazai: grabs Chuuya before the avian can escape Guys, c'mere!~ Chuuya: DAZAI NO-DON'T YOU DARE YOU SWORE TO ME- Kunikida, Ranpo, Kenji and Yosano: Wander over grudgingly except for Kenji Chuuya: Fuck fuck fuck fuck let me go- writhing and flapping his wings but iTS NO USE Dazai: Watch, guys.

Chuuya: "Fuuuuuck you." Dazai: "Fuck you!" Chuuya: "Fuck me, then, coward!" Dazai: "Sure thing you needy little shit!"

---------------------

Bram: There used to be a plethora of werewolves during my time. Such things were most common.

Chuuya: …Hmmmm. I can kinda like…get you something as close to a werewolf as I can.

Bram: Please do, I'd be most grateful. It has felt like a millenia since I've last encountered such a common kind that seems so terribly uncommon in these parts.

Chuuya: Disappears, and from the distance: Yo, Atsushi!

Also Chuuya: drags Atsushi by the scruff back to Bram and throws him on the ground like a sack of potatoes Here he is. He's more of a cat though, really. But he's still got the moon shit goin' on.

Bram: This pathetic mongrel? Looks mildly disappointed

Chuuya: Yeahhh, I know. This guy sucks, but he still got the semi-werewolf going on.

Bram: Do you perhaps have anything more than this…creature?

Chuuya: Er..unfortunately….no.

Atsushi: …I have ears, you know. Still on the ground

Chuuya: Pretend you don't and let the adults keep talking.

Atsushi & Bram: …

Atsushi: Screw this. Sits up and walks away

Chuuya: grabs him by the scruff again He's just a tad stubborn. If he turns into a full tiger under the full moon, do you think that'll help?

Bram: Sigh I suppose…there's certainly only one way to find out.

--------------

Dazai: Addressing Chuuya’s parents your son calls me daddy too ^^ Chuuya: DAZAI WHAT THE FUCK—

---------------

C: Don't make this worse. D: Define worse-

-------------

Chuuya: You’re bullshitting me so hard right now. Dazai: …. Chuuya: claps hands great, when do we start?

-----------

Chuuya: a cowboy? Eh…I’m not big on riding horses. Dazai: but you’re big on riding me? Chuuya: huh? Dazai: Stupid shit eating mischievous look Chuuya: gets it oh—OH FUCK YOU—

-------------

(Opinon: This one is shit)

Chuuya: tries making a nest Dazai: not helping Chuuya: Dazai, ya ass, come here and help! Dazai: but I’m disabledddd Chuuya: oh fuck off. We’ll see how disabled ya are when I make you carry all the shit we’re gonna get from the store. Dazai: blinks since when are we going to a store? Chuuya: since now. Get the fuck moving. 20 minutes later at a department store (I think)

Dazai: Y’know, you remind me of the stereotype I heard on the internet. Chuuya: mmmm? Dazai: where women have a knack for comfort in bed, so they have an exorbanatly large amount of pillows and blankets? Chuuya: comes close and hisses Ain’t my fault that I’m half dragon and in need of a nest! Fuck off about the subject or so help me, damnit!

….so the nest was built afterward, and Dazai served timeout in the corner for 20 minutes instead of snuggling with Chuuya in his new nest

-----------

Chuuya: twittering Dazai: listens to him and knows he's saying something but doesn't know what Atsushi: joins on the conversation, growling and snarling to Chuuya Chuuya: twitters and whistles back Dazai, feeling jealous: You guys have a secret language now!? No fair!!

~~~~~

(Part 2 kinda)

C: Starts twittering to Atsushi A: Growls back to him to start the conversation A few minutes later…. C: Gasps and comes out of animal speak "YOU TAKE THAT BACK!" A: "Nuh uh!" D: Quickly comes in and grabs Chuuya before he could whack the shit out of Atsushi C: "LEMME GO!" D: "Chuuya calm down-" C: "That mother fucker is going to FEEL MY WRATH-"

----------------- (This could be either counted as au or canon, but here's a funny short anyway)

D: I'm gonna fuck you, Chuuya. C: You mean fuckin' kill me, right? D: …. :) C: You…mean fuckin' kill me….right?

--------------

Chuuya to Dazai: Here, hold this gives him his gloves and ring Chuuya: Goes over to Clthulu HEY SQUIDDY! Clthulu: Turns around by jamming its tentacles into the earth and spinning its massive body towards Chuuya Chuuya: I hope you glued those tentacles on tight. Oh grantors of dark disgrace, do not wake me again. Corruption insues

---------------

Chuuya: I identify as an asshole. Grins and puts hands on hips Dazai: And I identify as the dick. Chuuya: … Dazai: … Chuuya: Gets it OH YOU DICK- Dazai: Case in point ;D

-- That's caught up to the most recent ones! Enjoy :))

on the matter of kenshin's

you know something i really would have loved to see?

kenshins having their own personality and ways of interaction

imagine how this could be used for character purposes or even just comedy

shindou crying at some point and maestro pulls a big handkerchief from his big ol' kenshin-sized pocket just to give it to him and shindou first reaction is to get startled by him, but you can see Maestro is genuinely worried and trying to help only for him to immediately turn around, looking at other kenshin like he is saying "which one of you did this to him?" without actually saying any words, just gesturing, and the other kenshin cowering away or even dissipating in fear

or maybe nishiki saying something stupid and musashi bonking the boy's head with the back of his sword, or even giving him a head pat when he does a good job which makes nishiki very happy cus it kinda reminds him of someoka when tenma really wants to train/play he makes that one face with pleading eyes when suddenly pegasus appears by his side making the same kind of face and is so uncanny to see such a big, menacing-looking guy doing that, but it shows how avatar and kenshin are similar in nature. the image of tenma saying the famous "sakka yarouze!" and pegasus suddenly appearing while screaming his signature WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cus he is excited to play

maybe having lancelot refusing to obey tsurugi in one of those moments where he felt conflicted or in doubt, it would serve to show how it can be messy or even dangerous to not be in a good state of mind while trying to use a kenshin

shinsuke tries to reach something that is too high and Titanias summoning himself in the middle of nowhere just to gently pick it up for him and fade away immediately, which could happen anywhere outside of the field, imagine being in a library when someone suddenly invoques their jojo stand just to pic a book from the top shelf like O_O)??

i personally would love it if the kenshin were not able to speak, only able to communicate mentally with their avatars and make sounds such as the scream pegasus does everytime he is summoned, which would obligate them to emote a lot to show their own emotions, especially for kenshin that are more animal-based or have most of their faces covered such as lancelot or maestro.

i really want to draw that, i've been looking for an excuse to draw kenshin for a while and now I kinda have it fuck 〒▽〒

Festival Time w/ Eddie

bit of a short one but i just went to a festival today so i present you whatever this is. TADA

i’m going to bed after posting this o_o

• Okay not gonna lie at first Eddie wasn’t excited when you showed up with two tickets to an art/music festival

• The thought of standing out in the burning sun for hours was not exciting to him but your look of excitement made it impossible to say no

• Leading up to the festival you got more and more excited and even talked Eddie into letting you pick out his outfit

• You weren’t gonna change up his style much but the festival was more peace and love and not metal and head banging

• The day of the festival boy did he look so handsome

• You even got him in blue jeans i mean they were still dark but it was different than his normal ripped up black ones

• Of course he was still wearing his signature rings and a band tee

• Eddie did love how you had your own style and he didn’t mind trying out things you liked because you do the same for him

• Not to mention he’s totally enamored with you and would do anything to make you happy

• The drive there was a long one but time passed by as you both snacked and jammed out to his and your music

• Before leaving the van to go into the festival you had to have a little fun…

• Get your head out of the gutter not that kind of fun

• Splitting a joint duh

• Giggling in the back of the van while smoke filled the enclosed space Eddie was in love with everything about you

• Your smile when you were talking about everything you were excited to do sent him soaring higher than the joint in his fingers

• After finally entering the festival the first thing Eddie insists on is getting a picture of you with his polaroid camera

• You agreed to have him take your picture as long as you got one of him too which he obliged to

• Before Eddie can properly comment on how good the photos look you’re off grabbing his hand to look at all the vendors and art there

• “Woah sweetheart, don’t get too crazy we’re just getting started.”

• Eddie did like going through the booths with you and even found things he liked which he was a little bit surprised about

• You even bought him a new ring and he bought you your own as well

• It was cute when you presented them at the same time to each other

• You guys must’ve looked like one hell of a smitten couple

• Eds makes sure to hold your hand as much as he can because he knows you tend to wander… especially when not sober

• He about had a heart attack when he thought he lost you but you were standing right next to him

• Literally scolds you like a child for scaring him like that

• When you get too hot or tired he finds some shade to sit under and even waits in line to get you a snowcone

• He did take five minutes to make sure that you would stay put and in his eyesight while he got it though because he knew you needed a break from standing

• Hell if it even got to the point he’d be carrying you around piggyback style

• He already insisted on carrying the bags for you

• Cooling down for a little bit helped you guys reenergize and you decided it was live music time

• Eddie loves music duh but this wasn’t exactly his kind of music and he was a bit shy at first when you started dancing around

• Seeing how free and happy you were just enjoying the music filled his heart with joy and he even got up to twirl you around

• The big smile on your face was his favorite sight of the day despite all the beautiful art work there

• No one and nothing compared to you in his mind

• When the day was coming to a close there Eddie was carrying you to the car with bags of stuff you just had to buy

• Both of you were beat by the heat by that point and tired out of your minds

• The drive back to Eddie’s trailer was much calmer as you’d fallen asleep a good thirty minutes in

• Your head lay against the window with a small pout on your face as you dreamed about who knows what because you were that zonked out

• Pulling up to his trailer you finally start to stir and open your eyes still very much sleepy

• Eddie takes this opportunity to help you get unbuckled and into the trailer leading you right to his bed

• Safe to say you were on the verge of sleep again by the time he brought everything in

• Through your sleepy state you thanked him for the day together and for being the amazing boyfriend he is

• Eddie can’t help but feel the same way towards you as your wrapped up with each other sleep approaching quickly to both of you

• The last thing Eddie sees before shutting his eyes to sleep is the new rings on his and your finger leaving him with a peaceful smile throughout the night

When You’re Lost in the Darkness, Look for the Light- Chapter 2

Abby Anderson x Fem!Reader

Read chapter 1 here !

After your night with Abby you head down to the cafeteria again to grab some food, still convinced it was all a dream. It’s not until you recognize a familiar face from across the room that you realize it was real, and this time she’s not alone.

Warnings: mild violence, swearing, fluff, just a lot of gay panic tbh

The new chapter is finally here !! All the positive comments on the first one made me so happy so THANK YOU for those :))

BTW that gif of Abby... both eyes open no blink (O_O)

When you woke from your slumber you were almost positive that your encounter with Abby was merely a dream or a figment of your imagination. It was the first time since moving to the base that you hadn’t woken up in a cold sweat; nightmares filled with the echoes of clickers and that piercing sound of ammo clattering on the floor was not an uncommon occurrence. After spending those two dreadful days trapped in a bunker with nothing but a pocket knife and a small handgun, a good night's sleep was something you no longer expected. You shivered as you recalled that dark, cold, concrete room you had barricaded yourself in, awaiting your death with no food, water, or supplies of any kind. It wasn’t until you heard the crashing of pipe bombs in the above levels that you snapped out of your weakened state. The WLF had on a whim decided to clear the building you were hiding out in and saved you. Your rescue was a complete stroke of luck and you weren’t sure whether to be incredibly grateful or afraid for it.

Still groggy from your sleep, you hadn’t even realized the small piece of paper that had been slipped under your door. It was from a page in a notebook that had been ripped out, and on it was a small message in neat, military handwriting: “Had a lot of fun last night :) - A”.

“So it was real!” You thought. That absolute tank of a woman wasn’t just a product of a sleep deprived trip to the communal cafeteria; she was real and every fibre of your being hoped she had enjoyed last night as much as you did.

You neatly tucked the note into your copy of Pride and Prejudice before getting ready for the day (or more like afternoon since you had slept in). After brushing your teeth and washing your face, you slipped on your military issued combat boots and a light sweatshirt before leaving your dorm.

It was still raining outside but luckily the WLF base wasn’t too chilly. Even when it snowed they always managed to maintain some modicum of heat, it seemed as though the wolves could always find ways around the pesky inconveniences of living in a post-apocalyptic world. You never really questioned it though and you knew better than to doubt Isaac’s methods. It’s not like you’ve actually met him or anything, but the stories that you had heard were enough to send a chill down your spine, and you knew that even if you did ask questions it’s not like anyone would answer them anyways.

Fortunately you hadn’t slept in past lunch because you were absolutely starving, so starving that even the shitty WLF base food was starting to smell like heaven. As you made your way into the cafeteria that was teeming with life, there was only one thing on your mind: devouring those damn burritos. Once you finally got some food you quickly sat down to demolish it, amazed at how so much happiness could be contained within the confines of a single bland tortilla and completely oblivious to the staring of a familiar pair of blue eyes from across the crowded room.

“Just talk to her already.” Manny said in a teasing tone.

Abby quickly snapped out of it “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”.

Of course Abby knew what he was talking about; in your rush to completely annihilate those burritos you had failed to notice Abby sitting at a table a few feet away. Abby couldn’t explain it but her heart was racing, the same way it would if she were in combat with a hoard or some Scars.

Manny rolled his eyes “Dude I’m not blind, you’ve been staring at her ever since she sat down. So who is she?”. He relished at the sight of Abby’s nervousness, he hadn’t seen her like this since back when she was still dating Owen.

“Huh? No hablo inglés.” Abby said sarcastically trying to get Manny off her back.

“Fine, I guess I’ll have to ask her myself.” Manny started to get up when Abby kicked his shins from under the table. Manny yelped in pain “Dude! What the hell?”.

“I will literally clock you in the face, sit your ass down right now.” Abby quickly glanced around the room to make sure no one noticed Manny writhing in pain.

Manny chuckled then smiled that classic smug grin while he gripped his definitely-bruised shins “I knew it, someone’s got a crush.”.

“God you’re annoying, I should’ve let that clicker eat you last week.” Abby said in an annoyed tone as she fell back against her chair. Abby felt a tinge of remorse for kicking Manny like that, she knew that Manny probably wouldn’t have actually walked up to you; but she couldn’t have risked it. Abby looked up and noticed Manny’s expression had changed, afraid she overstepped with that last statement Abby was just about to apologize when Manny started.

“What the fuck Abby?! Why didn’t you tell me about this girl, you know I’m the best wing-man.” Manny was suddenly very intrigued, Abby had always been very secretive when it came to her love life so Manny jumped at the opportunity to become her certified dating coach. Plus, not only did Manny have his fair share of experience with women, he also just really wanted to see Abby less lonely. After Owen and Mel started dating along with Leah and Jordan, Abby was stuck constantly third-wheeling the entire group; Manny didn’t think she minded that much, but sometimes it hurt his heart to see her all alone.

“There’s nothing to talk about Manny, we’re just friends.” Abby replied reluctantly, not completely believing her own words. It’s not like you guys were dating, but it felt like a disservice to call what you guys had a “friendship”. The word itself didn’t accurately encapsulate enough meaning for her and despite the fact she was a voracious reader, Abby just couldn’t come up with a word for what you two had.

“If you’re friends, then just go up and talk to her.” Manny knew Abby, and he knew that she always needed a push if he wanted to get anything out of her.

“I can’t… I just can’t. I’m not like you, okay?” Abby was conflicted, waves of doubt started to roll in the more she thought about it. She didn’t want to consider the possibility that maybe you didn’t want to talk to her; that maybe you were just being nice last night and didn’t actually like her, or maybe even that you saw her when you came in and decided to ignore her on purpose.

Obviously Abby was freaking out for no reason, but those small anxious bits of uncertainty that crept in from the back of her mind made her shield of confidence feel tenuous and weak; something she despised.

Manny knew what Abby meant but being the smug little shit he is, he wanted to hear her say it out loud “What do you mean?”.

Abby sighed, “Don’t make me say it.”.

“No, no I really want to hear it.” Manny smiled that famous shit-eating grin, the one he used whenever Abby had to admit he was right.

Abby realized he wasn’t letting go of this “Ugh you know, you can… talk to people.”. Abby could tell by Manny’s face that he wasn’t satisfied with her answer, so not wanting to risk the possibility that he’ll stand up again Abby gave him a look of defeat “and I guess you’re charming or whatever.”.

“Ah! Música para mis oídos.” Manny smiled proudly, hearing Abby compliment him was almost as rare as seeing her without that signature braid. Just as Manny was getting ready to haul Abby’s ass to your table he looked over and realized that you had disappeared, it wasn’t until Abby kicked his shins again that he realized you were standing right there.

You were elbow deep in your third burrito before your dumbass realized that Abby was sitting a couple tables across from yours. “Shit!” You thought, how long had she been sitting there? Did she notice you? No, probably not… unless, what if she was so disgusted by you huffing down those burritos that she ignored you? Ugh! How could you not have noticed her?

You calmly set your burrito down, wiping your face and praying to God there wasn’t anything stuck in your teeth. You figured that Abby probably hadn’t noticed you so you decided to just bite the bullet and talk to her. As you stood up from your seat to make your way over to her table, you quietly whispered to yourself “Come on y/n, don’t be a pussy.”.

“Hey Abby.” She was sitting with a man who you assumed was the friend that she had transferred here with, she mentioned his name last night but you couldn’t place it. He suddenly jerked around to face you with a calm smile on his face, his rugged features and charming personality now making it clear as to why Abby complained about being kicked out of her own room so many nights. Even though you weren’t attracted to him, you understood what all the fuss was about.

“Hey Y/N, I didn’t even see you there.” As soon as the words came out Abby shot Manny a look, the kind of look that meant “don’t say a fucking word.”. However, of course Manny being… well Manny, he grinned and raised his hand to shake yours.

“I’m Manny.” His smile was warm and welcoming as he shook your hand “Please, sit down sit down. Tell me all about yourself.”.

You took a seat next to Abby, your knees just barely grazing each other due to the shortage of space at the table. Even though it was such a small form of contact, you couldn’t help but feel like there was an electric charge connecting you together. You wondered if she even noticed the gesture, if Abby could hear your heart daring to beat out of your chest; if she noticed that small gap between your hands on the table, or if she even noticed the small clandestine looks you were sending her the whole time.

Abby froze stiff as a board when you sat down next to her, and she did her best to maintain her composure when she felt your knee graze hers from beneath the table. This was the closest you two had been and now she could really see the details of your face and your actions; how you pushed a strand of hair behind your ear whenever you were nervous, or how you snorted when Manny thought “Little Women” was just about really tiny people. She noticed how bright your smile was, how it was the kind of smile that could instantly light up an entire room, and she was astonished because Abby finally understood the real meaning of that one Firefly quote about “looking for the light”. Abby realized that no matter what, she would follow you to the ends of the Earth. You were this bright and unexpected light that suddenly entered her life, you weakened her defences and made her feel like a ball of putty, and while one part of her detested that feeling, another part of her never wanted to part with it.

You explained to them how you had been rescued by the WLF and how you were a pretty skilled mechanic. You even told them about how although you loved your job, you desperately wanted to work in the library, because other than the fact that you wouldn’t be covered in grease at the end of every day, you’d also be surrounded by things you love.

The two told you about the “Salt Lake Crew” and how they were essentially Isaac’s top soldiers. It was a fact that left you with about a hundred questions, but you figured it wasn’t the right time to bring up their boss so you tried your best to brush it off. The three of you sat at that table talking for what felt like forever before the cafeteria staff kicked you guys out because they had to clean up.

As they both walked you to your room you were so incredibly excited. You had spent so many months at this boring outpost, spending most of your time reading or crying. Then Abby happened; she came into your life and suddenly you weren’t alone anymore. You were so insanely grateful for this newfound happiness that you just wanted to leap into those insanely strong arms.

Just as the two were about to leave Abby grabbed your hand and leaned down to your height so she could quietly talk to you, “Hey Y/N, can I ask you something?”.

You were so dumbfounded by her hand holding yours that you nearly passed out, you tried to form words but all you could manage was a small nod.

Abby smiled as she stood up and looked to Manny “Hey, you can go ahead I’ll catch up. I just need to talk to Y/N for a quick sec.”.

Manny immediately got the signal and grinned so wide Abby thought his face would freeze like that, Abby knew she was never going to hear the end of this, but she couldn’t really be bothered to care with your hand in hers.

Then Manny was gone, and it was just you and Abby. Her hand was still holding yours and you couldn’t help but notice all the details of them; how she had these small calluses on the palms of her hands, formed from years of wielding firearms and lifting weights. You realized how much damage she could do with them—how much damage she had done with them—but instead she stood there softly cradling your hand in hers, just lightly squeezing it before she looked at you with those same pools of blue you wanted desperately to drown in.

“Hey so I know we kind of just met last night, but I’ve really enjoyed hanging out with you and…” Abby paused to contemplate her words before starting again “and I was wondering if we could do this more often. I’m doing some work for Isaac tomorrow but I’ll be back later if you wanted to come by and watch a movie or something?”.

“Holy shit!” You thought “Did Abby just ask me out on a date?”. You couldn’t believe it, there was no way this absolutely fucking perfect girl just asked you on a date. You almost wanted to pinch yourself because nothing about this felt real, it wasn’t until you snapped back to reality that you realized you had been staring at Abby in absolute silence while she stood there waiting for an answer.

You quickly answered “Absolutely, I would love to come over and watch a movie.” Your heart was pounding dangerously fast against your ribcage and your face was completely flushed as you gave her a reassuring smile.

Abby sighed with relief and lightly squeezed your hand “Great! I’m in the room across from the gym, does eight o-clock work?”. Abby felt like a weight had been lifted from her shoulders, at first when Y/N didn’t say anything, she was afraid she had misread the situation and crossed the line.

“I’ll see you then.” As you started heading back to your room, you suddenly remembered something “Hey Abby!” She looked back with curiosity as you shot her a small smirk “Thanks for the note.”.

Abby smiled shyly “I’ll see you tomorrow Y/N.”

The Demigod Squad at the first day of school:

Just for hc purposes they all go to the same highschool in the city

Leo rigged Annabeth’s backpack so it’s roomier on the inside than it looks on the outside and she fills it to the brim with any supplies she could possibly need, including scissors, a mini stapler, a staple remover, a mini hole punch, and three packs of sticky notes (“you are aware that the teachers also have supplies right” “you never know”)

She’s taking five AP classes, she’s only not taking six because Percy convinced her to take marine biology with him

Percy’s backpack holds a few pieces of paper and a pen (“I don’t need a pen Annabeth I have Riptide” “Seaweed Brain do you really want to unsheathe your sword every time you need to take notes” “I’m sorry do you think I’m taking notes”)

The Marine Biology teacher decides to start the class off with a few fun facts and Percy interrupts him to tell him something he got wrong and accidentally goes into a mini tangent about an ocean sunfish he met one time until Annabeth puts her hand on his wrist to bring him back to reality and the entire class is just staring at him like o_o

Leo’s in Annabeth’s AP Physics class, the teacher assumes that he’s just there to please his parents or something and mess around the whole time but when she starts the lecture she’s surprised that Leo is super engaged and answers a kid’s question before she does

He tries taking an engineering class but after he flips through the textbook and realizes he already knows everything in it he drops the class and switches into AP calculus

Jason is also in AP calculus, math is his favorite subject because he likes how methodical it is and how there’s always a concrete answer

He and Frank instantly get handed sign up forms for football tryouts, Leo is appalled (“what they didn’t think I could play football?” “you’d immediately get stepped on” “I resent that”)

Jason and Reyna sign up for student government, they miss leading and feel like being in student government is a much easier gig than running and training a camp of roman demigods

Piper signs up for the debate team, she wants to practice using her voice to win arguments without charmspeak, Annabeth and Jason help her practice at camp

She’s also in chorus, the director wants to give her a solo as soon as he hears her sing but she doesn’t want it

One of Nico’s teachers decides to do ice breakers and makes Nico start two truths and a lie and it goes... poorly (“Um, my dog is a giant hellhound, my favorite color is blue, and I once crawled through the depths of hell” “Nico you’re only supposed to tell one lie, obviously the first and the third are-“ “I absolutely hate the color blue”)

He takes Italian for his foreign language, Will takes it too. (“Dammit Solace now I won’t be able to insult you to your face” “you do that in English” “oh yeah never mind”)

Will and Frank sign up for archery tryouts, Piper thinks it’s insane that a school in New York City would even have an archery team but they’re thrilled

Frank tries to get as many classes as possible with Hazel because she’s really overwhelmed by the school and technology, the only class she takes by herself is art

She, Frank, and Nico are all in the same US history class and Hazel and Nico flip through the textbook and whisper inaccuracies to each other in the back of the class

Reyna signs up for fencing club, she tries to get Percy to sign up with her but he’s not interested (“Reyna we’d be the best ones there it’ll be boring” “but the competition! The valor!” “The extra time I have to be at school! No thank you”)

During lunch they get a table together, Piper declines a bunch of girls who recognize her and want to sit with her to talk about her dad and to try to convince Piper to let them meet him, Annabeth starts her homework immediately (“isn’t it just signing syllabuses” “well my dad’s signature isn’t going to forge itself”), Leo passes out the self-serving plates he brought from camp and starts talking to Reyna about making tricked out campaign buttons, some girls ask Percy to sit with them and he’s so confused about why (“it’s because you’re hot seaweed brain” “but you’re my girlfriend” “they don’t know that” “they should”), Hazel shows Piper some sketches she started in art class, Frank and Will talk about the archery practice they’re going to do when they get back to camp, Nico sits in between Will and Jason and refuses to take off his hoodie even though it’s super hot outside, Jason talks to Percy about Percy’s plans to join the swim team and how much power Percy can use without being too much better than the rest of the team

Percy drops everyone back at camp after school and then he and Annabeth go to Sally’s to tell her and Paul about their day and to hear about Estelle’s first day of kindergarten

Note

Yamairu but it’s yamato leaving iruka all sorts of bouquets etc anonymously trying to build up the courage to say soemthing to him and kakagai come along to see iruka holding the current days bouquet and talking to naruto and yamato, assuming yamato confessed and iruka accepted because they both looked happy gai bellows out congrats on successfully wooing your lover! And they all just o_o except kakashi who just straight up snorts at the situation while naruto tries to figure out wtf is going on

Ao3

All week Iruka had been finding Bouquet laying around in various places. Different flowers in each one, and some that came with a bonus note attached to them.

The note never really helped him figure out who it was leaving him all of these little gifts. All they ever said were little encouragements like ‘today may be hard, but I know you can make it through just fine’ or a simple Hello.

They didn’t even have a signature for him to go off of.

His latest bouquet was no different. Found on his classroom desk after he had taken the kids outside for some taijutsu training, there was nothing on it that pointed to who his secret admirer might be.

Even Ino hadn’t been able to tell him who it was leaving him all of these flowers. Apparently, there hadn’t been anyone coming in three times a day to pick up various flower bouquets for him. Meaning they b we’re getting the flowers from someone’s garden, or somewhere else entirely.

“Iruka-Sensei!” Stopping in his tracks, Iruka looked up to see Naruto running through the market streets towards him with Captain Yamato not far behind. “I was just going to come to get you for some Ramen!”

Smiling, he pushed back all thoughts of the flowers and focused his attention on Naruto and the sudden rumbling in his stomach at the mention of Ramen.

“I wouldn’t turn down a bowl,” Watching as Captain Yamato came to a stop behind Naruto, he smiled. “Are you coming too, Captain?”

“Naruto said he wanted my company,” the Captain smiled, reaching out and placing a hand on Naruto’s shoulder as he spoke. “Isn’t that right?”

“I didn’t...” the captain’s friendly smile shifted into a more haunted look. With wide eyes staring down at Naruto with a silent promise.

A promise that would have had Iruka in defensive mode, getting between Naruto and the other man, if it had been anyone else.

With Captain Yamato though, he knew it was just a look. Nothing else.

Though he couldn’t quite explain how he knew that. It was just a gut feeling he got. Something deep down inside of him that said he could trust the Captain, even with his favorite knucklehead.

“Oh, did you get more flowers, Iruka-Sensei?” Naruto rushed forward, forgetting about the Captain for a moment in favor of poking the flowers in Iruka’s hand. “Any idea what weirdo keeps leaving them for you?”

“T-they’re not a weirdo!” Iruka insisted, pulling his flowers away from Naruto’s prying hands. “I mean...” he hoped they weren’t a weirdo.

“I’m sure whoever it is, they’re just trying to be nice,” Captain Yamato offered, the smile returning to his face when Iruka met his eyes. “They’re just flowers. A harmless gift.”

Something told Iruka that the Captain knew a bit more about his mysterious flowers than he was letting on. It would have to be a conversation for another day though. When Naruto wasn’t there to add his two cents on Iruka’s love life.

“Yo! Tenzo!” Hearing a familiar voice, Iruka glanced over Captain Yamato’s shoulder to see Kakashi and Gai headed their way. “Oh, and Iruka-Sensei!”

There was a hint of a smile in Kakashi's gaze. Not a new occurrence, but something that gave Iruka an uneasy feeling this time. As if something disaster out was about to happen.

"Yamato, you've done it!" Gai threw his arms out, ignoring the way that the Captain waved his hands sporadically. As if he was trying to tell Gai to shut up without actually say it. "Did Iruka-Sensei say yes? When is your date?"

Date?

Iruka's gears started to work, the scene in front of him fading from view just as Captain Yamato launched towards Gai in a desperate attempt to cover his mouth.

A date. Was Captain Yamato trying to ask him out on a date? Why would he do that? And how...

His eyes shot down to the flowers in his hands.

It explained why Ino didn't know of anyone buying multiple bouquets of flowers from the Yamanaka flowers shop. Why would Captain Yamato spend money on flowers when he could grow them himself?

Now that he knew who his secret admirer was, he couldn't stop himself from smiling. Captain Yamato. The man who always made sure to check up on Iruka and Naruto whenever he could. Who was more than willing to stand up to his favorite Senpai, while at the same time being an absolute sucker for him.

He really had won the jackpot in the secret admirer lottery.

"Iruka-Sensei," seeing a hand being waved in front of his face, Iruka focused back in on reality to see Naruto standing there beside him with a worried look on his face. "Are you alright, Sensei? You weren't answering me at all, dattaboy."

"Ya, I'm fine," he smiled, turning his attention back over to Captain Yamato and Gai-Sensei to see them in the midst of an argument. Well, more like Captain Yamato was scolding the older man. "Captain, Be nice. He was just trying to be supportive."

"He was being nosey is what he was being," the Captain huffed, crossing his arms over his chest and glancing back at Iruka. "I-Ignore him. He didn't mean..."

"Are you saying that you don't want a date, Captain?" placing his hands on his hips, Iruka narrowed his eyes. 'And to think, I just got my hopes up. I was going to have a date with Konoha's cutest Jonin."

"Gross." Naruto stuck out his tongue.

"Mah, Iruka you shouldn't be so nice to him," Kakashi-Sensei chuckled. "He's just-"

"And why shouldn't I?" turning his attention towards the copy nin, Iruka huffed. "He's easily the most handsome Jonin in all of Konoha, and the kindest. Even Gai-Sensei isn't as sweet as him, and you're a far way away from being as cute."

"That was uncalled for," The copy nin's shoulders dropped, though there was still a chuckle in his voice when he spoke. "But I was just saying..."

"And besides, I've been looking for a good date for a while," Iruka continued, ignoring Kakashi's protests. "Though I'm surprised Captain Yamato would want to ask me out, I'd be a fool to turn him down. I couldn't possibly do any better."

"Well, there we go," Kakashi sighed, pointing a finger towards the Captain. "you've done it now."

Frowning, Iruka turned his attention back to the Mokuton user and screeched when he saw the state the man was in.

Covered from head to toe in a variety of different flowers, he had the cutest smile on his face and a dreamy look in his eyes. For a second, it looked like he was going to become one with Nature, literally.

"I told you to stop," Kakashi-sensei sighed. "He doesn't know how to handle praise."

Lancaster: Peeping Tom-in-law

[The darling rose and dashing knight had laid there, hot and exhausted underneath the comforter of their bed. The rain had just settled for their first time giving into each other, and boy was it worth the wait. After moments of breathing passed, they finally met face-to-face.]

Ruby: Wow.

Jaune: You can say that again.

Ruby: I always hear Yang and Nora talk about it a lot, but actually experiencing it... *blushes and smiles* ...It’s something else.

Jaune: Hehehe. *blushes* Was I good?

Ruby: *places hand on his cheek* You were amazing.

Jaune: Ruby...

Ruby: Jaune...

Together: I love you.

[Just as they kiss, a camera flash is seen from the closet as Yang falls out on her back catching their attention.]

Yang: *blinks* Uh-oh. Uh... *stands up* Congratulations, sis! *wink*

Ruby/Jaune: YANG!!!

Jaune: *looks up* Yang Xiao Long, if we weren't naked and unarmed we would give you such a kick in the ass right now!

Ruby: *O_O* Crescent Rose, how did I forget about cleaning her?!

[Ruby gets up, tripping out of the bed and standing back up. She grabs her blanket, running for a second only to fall down again. Jaune and Yang wince at this sight.]

Yang: You alright, Rubes?

Ruby: I'm fine! I think my boobs broke my fall when I faceplanted. *>_<*

Yang: Oof! *helps Ruby up* I didn't think your first time would leave you feeling so clumsy.

Jaune: *shrugs* I go deep and hard, what can I say?

Ruby: *stumbles dizzily, Nevermores chirping above her head* Blah...Protection...Used...Really strong...

Yang: Phew. Thank the Brothers. Because I'm not ready to be an aunt yet. *blushes* But you might be, Rubes.

Ruby: *shakes head* Blblblbl! I heard, Yang. Coco and Velvet told me.

Yang: Told you wha- -Ohh, those chocolatey snakes!

Jaune: We're still happy for you, Yang.

Yang: *-_-* Thank you, nosy brother-in-law.

Jaune: Ah, come on! You know you love me!

Ruby: Riiiiight. Well, I'm gonna take a shower and clean out Crescent Rose after this.

Yang: You do that, sis. You looked really cute in lingerie, by the way.

Ruby: Thank you. *turns out water, peeking head out of bathroom* Try not to snoop in on me and Jaune's future sessions, or I'm feeding you to Zwei. *slams door shut*

Yang: … *low whistle* Damn. Really kicked the Lancer's nest, didn't I?

Jaune: You DID barge in and take a selfie when we climaxed.

Yang: I was kinda in there for a while...

Jaune: ...How long were you- -?! Never mind!

Yang: *sits down on bed, lying next to Jaune* I took one with Ren and Nora for their first time, so, not the first instance.

Jaune: So how did they let you take a selfie with them?

Yang: *puts hands behind head* Nora told me how nervous she was for her first time with Ren. She really needed some encouragement, then she found an old cheerleader outfit she wore at Beacon for sporting events.

Jaune: ...You have a very odd way of encouraging people.

Yang: *looks up at Jaune* Dude, this was before they were engaged and she needed some help. Badly. Also? It was actually Ren's idea knowing how tight she looked in it.

Jaune: Okay! Enough! ...What was your first time with Sage like?

Yang: *sigh* Guy was pretty nervous when we were about to do it. Before all that, we just cuddled naked, did some foreplay, showered and bathed together, but we just couldn't go through with it. Soon as we, uh...Finally went in, all that nervousness melted away. *pets belly* Heh. Case and point...

Jaune: Well. *stares at bathroom door* Sounds like somebody I know.

Yang: Yeah...I was just really happy for you and Ruby. I may be a pervert, Jaune, but I do it because I like being more open with the folks I care about. Weiss and Neptune, I didn't sneak a photo with because I know they're really conscious about sharing each other with how far apart they were during the Crisis. Sun and Blake, I didn't have the heart for that considering I was Blake's Maid of Honor at her wedding. Ever since we kicked Salem's ass, I'm really excited to see you and my sister together. So, I'm excited that you finally got on with it.

Jaune: … *smiles* Thanks, Yang. We're happy for you and Sage, too. I know me and Ruby aren't that far into marriage yet, but- -

[Jaune was interrupted by Yang giving one of her signature asphyxiating hugs, which Jaune could thankfully withstand.]

Yang: *smiles, resting head on Jaune's shoulder* Hey man. Take as long as you and Ruby need with the whole kids thing. Long as Sage will have somebody to spoil in the long run.

Jaune: *hugs back* You got it. By the way, those flirting techniques that Ruby picked up from you and Blake? Woof!

[The bathroom door opened. Ruby currently wore a towel as she exited the steaming room noticing Jaune and Yang's embrace.]

Ruby: Um...Are things okay now?

Yang: *looks back at Ruby defensively* What? A woman can't hug her own brother-in-law?

Jaune: *looks at Ruby* Everything's fine, sweetie. You look beautiful in that towel by the way.

Ruby: *blushes* It's just that...He's naked, I just got out of the shower, we just...Finished. And you were peeping on us.

Yang: Welp, I better leave you two lovebirds to it. See you around, Rubes. You too, ladykiller. *gives peace sign with robot arm*

Jaune: Bye, Yang.

Ruby: See ya, Yang. Seriously, though. Could you please lay off on the sex selfies with me and him?

Yang: Yeah, okay. Besides, me and Sage might come over for to see which out of the four of us can last longer after I give birth.

Ruby: *smirks* Oh, you're on!

Yang: And since I still have time to do this before I get the preggo belly... *runs towards bedroom window* JUMP OUT THE WINDOW!!!

[Yang jumped out the bedroom window of their penthouse. She boosted her fall with a recoil boost from Ember Celica.]

Yang: *from the distance* ...Like a boss! Love you guys!

Ruby: *finishes changing into underwear* She knows how to make an exit.

Jaune: That's our Yang. So, I'm not really tired and have some games booted up. *holds up Scroll* Afterglow gaming session?

Ruby: Oh you know it! But on one condition...

Jaune: What is it, honey?

Ruby: *leans in and smirks* We play in our underwear.

Jaune: *smiles* Fine by me, Crater Face. It's getting hot outside anyway.

Ruby: *kisses Jaune's nose* I knew you'd see it my way.

[The couple rubbed noses, giggling as they played some first-person-shooters into the evening.]

Joethefriendlyponybro: Whaaaat?! I managed to write something for Lancaster even though it's not my ship?!

Okay, okay, for real. This is based off of an RP that DarkSaiyan and I had while I was in between some IRL matters to tend to. Hope you all enjoy.

DarkSaiyanGoku: Probably one of the most unexpected collaborations I’ve done, but I enjoyed the hell out of it!

My opinion to all the characters of the Masked Singer (season 1 to 2)

I'll list down my favorite characters at the final bottom with my greatest confession.

Season 1 characters:

•Hippo- he has swagger and reminds me of my oc Ishmael who is into hiphop and loves hiphop aesthetic.

•Pineapple- don't have an opinion of him but he is funny though.

•Deer- his design is so cool. Loved the steampunk and general aesthetic there, he is also one of my inspirations on making Dog (Nicol) since I am a fan of general uniforms.

•Poodle- she is the reason I first got interested on watching the Masked Singer in the first place! I loved this characters because of the pink (my favorite color), the sassy attitude and just ugh so fashionable! I loved it, she even sings "Heartbreaker" that I deeply loving her performance. Great job Margaret Cho, it very funny to trick Ken of not knowing his own sister.

•Unicorn- she is so pretty. I've been seeing unicorns everywhere in my life today and now. She is so pretty and white, I have a soft spot of her singing "Oops I did it again" and "Fight" song because of her sweet voice.

•Raven- she reminds me of my oc Ishiru. Dark, sympathetic, gothic and mourning of someone's death especially her beloved. I feel you girl.

•Alien- Alien is cool, I can see why everyone is complaining/reminded of Zim from Zim invaders (I also remember watching it in my childhood). I can't stop dancing and modelling myself while listening to "Ex's and Ohs". I didn't know Michael Jackson had a sister, I didn't know much to his family since I was so young before his death. Great knowing you La Toya Jackson.

•Lion- I am not a fan of gold though but dang she sings so strong and the tone is just over the top. I loved listening to "A little party never kill nobody" and "California Dreamin". Nice knowing you Rumor Willis.

•Peacock- this man is a living fabulous, prideful, eccentric bird I ever seen. I loved his performance, he is also funny and his voice is like an old famous singer I ever heard of. Loved the characters that Donny did and the signature moves though. Congrats to Donny for beings second place.

•Bee- I am not much of a Bee fan but I am in loved with her performance "Wrecking Ball". I can't stop listening to that song because of the high notes, strong voice and my own heart and soul suddenly clutching for this empress. Oh hail to Gladys Knight!

•Monster- aww Monster my second favorite character! I really loved you and I almost loved all of his performance (the one song I don't like is "I love Rock and Roll"). I am so glad T-Pain won the game to avenge my Rabbit since he is my second favorite. All hail to the Monster, T-Pain. (P.S: I didn't know he are the one who sing the song from my past, I guess I did know you on my childhood T-Pain).

•Rabbit- the last one is the Rabbit. My favorite character and the only favorite celebrity for the first time of my entire life! I loved so much about the Rabbit, I fell in love with madness, his edgy and lovable character, his neck twitch to show of his craziness, his design and straightjacket, his voice and performance, EVERYTHING! I am so glad to watch him performed but it broke my heart when he is eliminated on 4th place, I was devastated so much I would never ever rewatch his elimination ever. The Rabbit leading me to my forgotten childhood favorite boyband NSYNC. Joey Fatone, you are my first ever celebrity in my heart and will forever be the Rabbit I dearly cherish for my life. Stan for the Rabbit!

My top 3 favorite characters is: the Rabbit, the Monster and the Poodle.

Season 2 Characters:

•Panda- I don't have any opinions of her though.

•Skeleton- Skeleton is just so very elegant and funny. Loved his design, it gives me the vibes of Itward from the game Fran Bow. His performance is good yet I did not expect him to get eliminated in episode 4.

•Flamingo- Flamingo is pretty in pink. Welp, the idea of Peacock's sister idea is dead now. But she is fabulous in anyway.

•Ladybug- she is pretty too, she is also emotional and I am touch.

•Eagle- I don't know much of Eagle and when I get to know his he got the swag and stuff. (I ship you and Penguin so much)

•Tree- she looks weird though. A Christmas tree? It so early here on Philippines though (only started preparing Christmas on September before reaching December). When I heard her voice, I know that voice before somewhere and that person is also wearing a Christmas costume I swear!

•Rottweiler- huh another dog for this season like Poodle. I don't have an opinion of him though, I'm not really interested.

•Flower- she looks wow to look at. She is a big gal here. Like her performance and I have a feeling this is Bee's (or Glady's) friend somewhere since the voice is like a goddess. Also, I ship Flower with Nick because they both holding hands. I was like X.X oof I'm dead by love, I ship them so hard.

•Butterfly- Butterfly is just cool and alright to me, I am blown away with her performance of "Bang bang". That's all I could thought of.

•Fox- dude... I have mixed feelings to his gentleman here. The Fox has the sexy cool voice, the swag and the steampunk theme like Deer had but I don't think so. I'm not really interested on him unless he changed my mind by getting to know him every episode so I could concluded my theory. (His dancer and his performance reminds me of me with Nicol on stage. Me as a dancer to Dog's performance, what the fudge O_O)

•Black Widow- dang the twirking and the voice is just give me the face like this O.O . she looks edgy and cool, I don't know whether she will survived through episodes.

•Penguin- aww a cute Penguin~ pretty small though and goofy as well. I also want her and the Eagle together like seriously! OwO who is with me to the ship train of Eagle x Penguin?

•Leopard- oof!!! Right in the dokoro and I went doki doki to this spontaneous leopard ❤! I I can't stop listening to his performance "Somebody to love" and when I first listened, I am in the middle of confusion and shock then went to fell in loved to this character. All hail the queen (or king?), I have a soft spot to who ever he is.

•Thingamajig- Oof! I've been hit! My man is a living angel from heaven. I loved him so much omg. His voice, his character and I sympathies his clue about his darkest moment when he went to rehab. Protect this baby! I couldn't help but thought of Thingamajig is the cousin of Monster. Who ever he is, I'm going to do a headcanon for both Monster and Thingamajig's relationship as cousins from heaven.

•Egg- I never get tired of this flamboyant, sassy and fabulous egg. I loved him so much omg I can't with his sassy and flamboyant attitude. I have a soft spot of guys with flamboyant glamour and stylish taste of fashion. Johnny Weir, you are my god to worship of your egg boi. Too bad he is no longer on the Masked Singer :(

•Ice Cream- he is such a lovable and adorable dude! I loved sweet, I'm a sweet tooth of course. But my man, he is just so sweet and friendly to watch him. Loved the performance "Old town road" you aren't well trainer enough, but I was blown away to reveal Ninja in this. I didn't know youtubers can be also be called celebrities. I just thought youtubers are just people who wanted to expressed themselves for entertainment normally but I wanna thank my friend to explained me that youtubers can be celebrities too. Nice work Ninja!

My top 3... No top 4 favorite characters for season 2 is: the Egg, the Ice Cream, Thingamajig and Leopard.

Thank God it’s Friday

Daily Writing Challenge by @sdavid09 - Prompt #3:

Prompt: TGIF! Thank God It’s Friday! Why does your character feel that way?

Pairing: Tony Stark/reader, mention of Loki/reader

Author’s note: I just realized that I could have played a joke on the word Friday, and instead of the day of the week write a story about Tony’s AI. I feel silly now O_o

MASTERLIST

_____________________________________________________________

Thank God it’s Friday

Monday was a deceptively easy affair.

Tony woke up well rested, with no nightmares haunting him throughout the night and a cuddly sleeping partner, who happily returned his good-morning kisses. He ate breakfast (blueberry pancakes made by Steve who decided to take proper care of his team and breakfast was The Most Important Meal of The Day, Tony), drunk piping hot coffee and left for SI. After boring meetings with the board, he was allowed by Pepper to show off a bit in the labs for the amusement of the young men and women working to better the world, and then went home. He found Y/N waiting for him with a home-made dinner and a movie, for which he repaid her with some fun times behind the closed door.

Unfortunately, that was the end of his well-earned peace and quiet.

Tuesday started with an alarm going off in the distance, informing the Avengers of a new threat in the glorious city of New York. It turned out that a new evil overlord named The Nemesis decided it was the time the Avengers learned about his might and power. The Nemesis, also known as John McCullen - one of the young doctors of Tony’s own facility – was not only highly intelligent, well prepared and magically skilled; he was also always three steps ahead of them in every sense.

Having incapacitated the Hulk by sending him to another dimension, he tore down Bucky’s new arm, stole Cap’s shield and revealed some secrets to Natasha, that made the redhead decline working with Clint altogether. And then he disappeared. Like a mist.

The shit finally hit the fan on Wednesday.

Steve decided that since the Nemesis comes from SI, it must have been something Tony has done that made the young scientist turn evil. Bucky took Tony’s side, which only made Cap angrier. He refused to leave the workshop, instead insisting on keeping an eye on the progress Tony was making.

While Tony and Strange were desperately looking for any sights of Bruce and trying to contact Thor who once again was off Odin only knows where, Natasha and Clint had a massive fight. Tony was not sure what has exactly transpired between those two. Suffice to say that they destroyed half of the common room with his collection of vinyl discs and, in the end, had to be divided by two very angry super soldiers. Clint had a split lip and carried in his hand a broken bow Tony just finished upgrading, while Natasha lost all her knives and, surprisingly, shoes.

Bucky, who had to take down the Black Widow without his biggest advantage, supported a black eye and tore his favourite pants. Steve was positively fuming – the Captain, who had nothing else to do now but wait - kept asking Tony in a very dry voice if he had finally found Bruce.

At least Y/N was an oasis of peace and tried her best to comfort the team and keep Tony sane.

Well, until Thursday.

On Thursday night Thor finally came back – together with his slimy brother, the god of Mischief and All that is Crazy. With all that was going on, no one felt easy having him here. No one, but apparently Y/N, who developed a weird fascination with Asgardian magic and couldn’t stop asking him quiet questions and, to put it frankly, flirt with the brat.

Loki turned out to be at least useful during the fight with the Nemesis. While the young man was clearly very talented, Loki had thousands of years to hone his craft and thanks to that he was able to restrain him long enough for Tony to search his lair. He found Cap’s shield, some stolen blueprints and a tiny hedgehog that was unnervingly familiar. Together with Thor, Loki, Clint and Natasha (who decided to bury the proverbial hatchet for a moment to save the people of New York) Tony and happily wielding his shield Cap were able to take down their foe and bring him to justice.

‘Thank god it’s Friday’ - Tony thought bitterly, hidden in his workshop. He retreated here in the late morning, after Loki finally manged to transform Bruce back to human. It turned out that the Nemesis didn’t actually send the Hulk into another dimension, but magically turned him into a hedgehog and kept as a pet. No wonder they couldn't pick up Bruce’s DNA signature in any of the places they tried – the DNA signature was simply different. Of course, not now, Tony grunted to himself, Loki fixed that and then proceeded to help the other Avengers.

- Loki the Saint – mumbled Tony, working on the new arm he promised Bucky. He knew he was being unfair, that Loki did help a lot and without him no one knows how long it would take them to defeat this new villain. He even took some time talking with Nat, after which Nat decided at least talk things through with Clint.

It really wasn’t about that, he knew. It was the burning jealousy he felt every time he thought about Y/N and Loki. After the battle, after everything was cleaned up and all the forms had been signed at SHIELD, he spied them talking quietly in a corner of the room. Loki gave her something which made her smile like a thousand tiny suns and then he leaned forward and kissed her cheek. For which she blushed and punched him playfully on the arm.

The tablet Tony was holding in his hand snapped in half. He looked down on it, sighed and put it on the table, making a mental note to reinforce the glass structure. A delicate knock on the door made him pause.

- Tony – said Y/N, smiling at him bashfully. - Tony, baby, I was looking for you.

He didn’t answer, just opened a new project. Nat broke Clint’s bow, maybe he could make a new one, use some new materials, hide some darts maybe...

- Tony? Has something happened? - there was a slight worry in her voice now. Tony gritted his teeth. - You disappeared so quickly, Thor and Loki have already left...

- And you didn’t go with him? - Tony asked sarcastically. He rubbed his eyes; the tiredness and all this week’s troubles was making him crankier and more prone to arguing.

- With Thor? Why would I leave with Thor? - she asked with consternation.

- Not with him. With Loki. I saw you two getting cosy with each other, I thought...

- What, that I would cheat on you? - she exclaimed with more astonishment and disappointment than anger. - That I’d leave you? After all you have done this week? And through all the time we know each other?

- I – Tony lost his voice for a moment. - I did nothing. I couldn’t stop my own employee from going crazy, I couldn’t find Bruce, I couldn’t make Nat and Clint work things out peacefully, I couldn’t...

- Oh, you idiot – she whispered, touching his face lightly. He didn’t notice her getting so close. - You did everything you could. You worked through Steve’s moods, you were working tirelessly to find Bruce, you were worried about Natasha and Clint. You managed to get everyone work together to bring down the threat, that had nothing to do with you. And even now you don’t stop, but immediately look to rebuild and make everything better. - She sneaked her arms around him, hugging him tightly. - How could I love anyone but you?

- What about... - he cleared his throat. - What about Loki in the office then? He kissed you.

She started to move away and for a moment he was terrified. He fucked up. He should have kept silent, she was here, she was his and now she’ll leave...

- Loki was helping me with something. - She took two silver bracelets out of her pocket and showed him the engraved inscription. ‘You are my favourite, now and always’. - I had it made here, in New York, but I asked Loki to make it a bit more... you know, magicky. - She smiled shyly. - You see, he put a spell on them. If you touch it here – she took his hand and placed his finger on a hidden button he didn’t see at first. - the other bracelet vibrates and turns arc blue.

Tony was speechless. He was looking at her like an idiot, with his mouth open and his hand still in her palms.

- And... – he croaked after a moment. - And the kiss he gave you?

- It wasn’t a kiss, silly! - she started laughing now. Tony was absolutely lost. - He just said something... well, something dirty. - she looked at him flirtatiously. - He said that if I want other vibrating gifts for you, he’ll be happy to provide.

Oh god, he made an absolute idiot of himself. He thought... He just thought...

- Anyway, that’s my gift for you. Now, let’s order and eat something and then we’ll watch a move, maybe? With all this week’s drama and action, I think we deserve some down-time. Thank God it’s Friday...

- Yeah, - Tony said quietly, following his girlfriend out of the workshop, a ridiculous smile on his face. - Thank god it’s Friday.

Hi! I recently read a few articles that related having a gemini moon with depression and anxiety. I have a Gemini moon and I can really relate to it. I also have two friends with the same problem. I know it doesnt apply for everyone, but i do think there's a conection. I'd love to read your thoughts on it.

my face when I saw this was a big O_O !!! ❤️💕 thank u for asking me for my thoughts on this personal subject ;v; ❤️💕 Hm I’m not an expert on mental health - so I can’t give a professional advice or opinion on the subject. I can kinda speak about my own experience/thoughts on the topic if that’s ok? ;; ❤️💕

tw: mental health 🚫

I do think we go through various types of depressions and anxiety - as not everyone’s experience can be generalized and expected to be the same as each other. That means the procedure for helping each individual might not apply to everyone, if something fails - that doesn’t mean you’re ‘failing’ everything (even if your brain tells you that you are sometimes!) - it just means that you might have to consult a different method of working through this, that might not be this particular method that you tried.

I don’t necessarily think that I can compare my own troubles with anxiety/depression with others and expect my recovery to be the same as theirs - my journey may be different, due to social norms/constructs and financial abilities or even- energetic disposition. But I do think it helps a lot to speak about it and share it with others (when I can/who are receptive and won’t invalidate this issue) that can certainly help motivate me to get the help I need, or even just cheer-lead myself on when I need something positive to think about.

Signs and? Mental Health? ⬇️

*sounds yikes but is actually hm. pretty non-explicit?? i think??

Other than that, I don’t necessarily think it’s a sign thing ;; mental health disposition doesn’t necessarily equate to the signs imo? That’s kinda like seeing the list of serial killers and going ‘aha! there’s a lot of serial killers who mutables (gemini,virgo,sagittarius,pisces) – so mutable suns must have a higher percentage of being serial killers!’ which?? like whats the boundaries of these data and collected info?? whats the other factors or possible correlation between them besides just this generalization tbh??

Heres the thing, correlations sometimes doesn’t equate to things being mutually exclusive to each other ;v; Which you’re exactly right about! ❤️💕 Not all gemini moons might suffer from the same problem as each other, since houses can often bring different elements to it as well - and certainly, aspects being made that can add or subtract, reflect restrictions with how it’s working as well! ❤️💕

Not only this, but I do think that – hm, mental health can still be a pretty big but vague subject we haven’t explored or set concrete stones on. It’s a fairly modern concept? As in being widely popular to identify these health issues and ‘diagnose’ ourselves/someone with these – well, concepts (i.e. depression, anxiety, bipolar, etc.) It’s been prominent since a long time ago I agree, but there’s also been less concrete/structured organization to deal with the topics - and we’re still, hm, a little reliable with figuring out how to help completely/deal with it as a society still. Not to mention the consequences- stigmatization and unsafe (sometimes even morally or ethically unfair) agenda that it brings.

With this said, there’s a foundation to each sign that’s in it’s energetic signature. I wouldn’t say all gemini placements are depressed - because the signs signature comes through with the will of the planet. A Gemini Moon would be different from a Gemini Mars- because the function is different.

I do think that in this particular case, because it’s in the Moon that is receptive/reflective of the subconscious and emotions (of self/others) - the constantly moving air mutable signature can certainly initiate specific issues within the moon’s domain due to it’s quality (as an air mutable, y know?) - but the concept of depression/anxiety and how we deal with it today is quite modern. So we may link – ‘how to help’ with these qualities of what the problem is, when we see our mutables, and try to use the facility/resources we have now to help us get through them?

Does that make sense? Like tying it all together:

The concept of mental health and how we proceed to deal with and work through it is quite a modern thing.

The signature of each signs, it’s qualities in each planets can be different

Thus, we may often feel the need to link them both together and correlate them in a way - to help us ‘improve/understand ourselves’, which is the core foundation of modern astrology (self-help/psychological fulfillment)

But separated from that - the foundation of mental health (and support surrounding it) is still a little shaky in it’s effectiveness and organization. The quality of the signs/it’s signature predates the concept of mental health institutions/healthcare with mental issues.

There’s not enough– hm, evidence, because of our lack of fully understanding mental health issues/problems– to actually bring the idea of signs being associated to mental health together.

Does this make sense?? ;v; I hope it does!! ❤️💕 thank u for sending in such an interesting question, I really love this ❤️💕 I’m glad we got to talk about it!! ❤️💕❤️💕 I hope my answer suffice/makes sense!! ❤️💕❤️💕

Endgame Spoilers!!!!

I couldn’t write this right after the movie. So doing this now. SO ENDGAME SPOILERS UNDER THIS!!

Poor Clint with losing his whole family. :(

I loved the little game Nebula and Tony played in the space ship. And that Tony said she won!

That Captain Marvel found Tony and Nebula was so good and that she brought them back to earth.

Steve shaved his beard knowing that Tony will be back soon. ;)

The Rocket and Nebula scene. *cries*

Seeing Tony so weak was so scary as hell.

I have to say that I loved evey minute when Tony yelled at Steve. I love both of them. But Steve deserved it after what happened in Siberia and leaving the Avengers behind.

Thor killing Thanos! *YES* But little to late.

It must have been hard for Scott that it felt like five hours. And then he got out and it was five years. :(

Tony’s daughter was so cute. I understand why Tony was scared of helping them. He finally got a family.

Professor Hulk. lol.

That scene when Scott turned into a baby, child and old man was hilarious.

And of course Tony is so smart that he will find a way to go back in time. I’m so proud of him. And I love the reason he did it was for Peter. If he hadn’t looked at the picture. He wouldn’t have tried it out.

Thor really let himself go. o_O

It was so good to see Valkyrie again.

The timetraveling was so cool here.

I love the scenes we got between Tony/Steve. To see them work together like that.

Loki must be alive now when they accidentally changed the timeline with him running away with the tesseract. He just has too.

The scene between Thor and his mother was so sad and sweet.

I love Rocket and his comments.

That Past Nebula and Present Nebula got connected like that was so scary. But it made sense to do it this way so the story could move forward. With Thanos coming to the future.

It was so good to see Gamora again.

I didn’t see that coming with Nat. I really thought Clint would do it. :(

Tony building his own gauntlet for them to use the stones.

Professor Hulk snapped his fingers to get everyone back, I thought at one point he wouldn’t survive it.

Clint face when he saw his wife name on his phone. *cries*

And then the hell came.

Steve using Thor’s hammer was so good and fun to see.

Then all of the heroes that turned to dust came back,

My tears started to come when I saw Peter/Spidey. It was just such a beautiful sight to see him again.

And I got goosebumps when everyone came through the portals to help fighting Thanos and his army. It was just incredible to see,

Then the hug between Tony and Peter. Here is when it broke for me and I started to cry for real. It was just so beautiful and I just love their father son bond so freaking much. I wish we could have gotten more of that tbh.

I love the scene with Gamora and Peter. He really got his ass kicked. lol.

It was so good to see Peter holding the gauntlet to try to get to Hope and Scott. And how everyone tried to help him.

I love also how all of the women helped each other when Carol took over to try to get it to Hope and Scott.

Tony sacrifices himself to save everyone else. This is when I lost control of my tears and they just kept coming. Tony has such a big heart and he died so everyone else could live.

And then when Peter comes to Tony. It just breaks my heart. And when Pepper tells him that they will be alright and it is okay to rest now (I think it was like that). It hurt so much and I’m still hurting two days later.

The memorial for Tony was very sweet. The scene with Happy and Morgan was so sad and sweet when they talked about cheeseburgers.

Not really happy that Steve gave the shield to Sam.

Going to say that I think it wasn’t fair that Steve was able to grew old with the one he loved when Tony couldn’t. I understand why Tony was the one who died I really do. Because Tony has sacrifices himself so many times to save others. His luck of survival run out. But still makes me sad he wasn’t able to grow old with Pepper and watch their daughter grow up.

I like that Valkyrie become the king of the new Asgard.

I wonder if Thor will be in the next GOGT movie now that he left with them?

The end credits. When the six OG avengers name came up. That was such a nice touch with their signatures.

Okay I know that kingdom hearts has a bad reputation for sticking crucial plot information on obscure spinoff games but HOLY SHIT I just finally watched a lets play of the fuckin digimon tcg game and found out it ACTUALLY HAS A GODDAMN CONCLUSION TO ANALOGMAN FROM DIGIMON WORLD 1

like 90% of the damn game has no plot whatsoever let alone indicating its a digimon world sequel! and then suddenly in the last battle without being foreshadowed whatsoever analogman returns and gets possibly the best boss battle ever IN A GODDAMN TCG GAME

holy shit his whole fight is framed as ‘this is literally the same guy from digimon world 1, hacking another game’, the interface wigs out and a bunch of fake command windows pop up with rapidly scrolling code of the game supposedly falling apart. And then his boss battle flips the entire gameplay system on its head by giving him fourth wall breaking special moves that pull overpowered effects by “hacking the engine”, with cool animations to fit. Fuckin badasssss!!

and it also fuckin FINALLY EXPLAINS THE DAMN PLOT LIKE GEEZ

digimon world’s conclusion was so rushed, you never even meet the villain until the final battle and it ends all weird with just “something” going wrong that causes him to get sucked into a portal or something while screaming dramatically in weirdly high resolution terror faces??? the tcg game confirms that this was him attempting to flee back to the human world after you defeated him, but one of the stray attacks from the battle damaged his machine and it caused him to essentially commit accidental suicide when he turned it on.

and HOLY SHIT MY FUCKIN OBSCURE HEADCANON IS TRUE????

the game had some sequel bait hints that maybe analogman is somehow still around and that the portal explosion just turned him into “corrupted data” so he can never return to the human world. and i always thought it would be super ironic if he actually got turned into a digimon aka the thing he hates more than anything

WELL OKAY I GUESS CRITICAL LORE IN A TCG GAME IS OKAY WHEN ITS A BIG YES BUNNI U THEORY BE CORRECT

he appears in this game as a malomyotismon who does a damn good vexen face during the fight, lol. And he’s all “gahh that stupid kid ruined my plans but this accursed body at least improved my hacking abilities!” Tho its implied that his corrupted state is more like a bodyless cloud of data that can possess/copy different digimon, which would be REALLY FUCKIN CRITICAL to explaining the goddamn plot of Digimon World Next Order!

Seriously wtf is up with this series? Digimon World 2 is not the sequel to Digimon World 1, all the numbered games are entirely separate individual stories with wildly different genres from pet sim to roguelike strategy. The real sequel is fucking DIGIMON THE CARD GAME THE GAME and then Digimon World Next Order a bazillion years later for the ps4. In which i am STILL REALLY SALTY that they have a FUCKIN RAD remix of analogman’s boss theme yet he doesn’t appear in the game. The added context of this damn tcg game confirms once and for all that the Ambiguous As Fuck Ending actually WAS him appearing in the game, this unexplained “oh wait the villain was good all along and he was just possessed by an evil virus” was supposed to be corrupted-digi-analogman and seriously WHY DONT THEY JUST FUCKIN EXPLAIN IT!!! this tcg game wasnt even released in europe!! and even american fans probably had no clue it was linked to this entirely separate subseries! You have to friggin piece it together with context clues like the battle music and the fact analogman’s signature mon was machinedramon. I mean vjesus christ Next Order is a litera; sequel with the grown up version of Digimon World’s protagonist as a badass home ec teacher who still defends the digital world in his free time yet you couldnt spare ONE LINE OF DIALOGUE mentioning the name of the villain?? and summarizing the fuckin tcg game everyone missed??? AND CONFIRMING THAT THE VILLAIN IS INDEED MAKING A REAPPEARANCE POSSESSING THIS GUY??? oh god everything makes SENSE, thank you terrible card game adaptation. ehh but i do still love Next Order for making Hiro/Mameo’s canon partner Mamemon, he’s even more badass as this big tough bishie version of himself with a tiny adorable pal that can shoot rocket fists through space and time. (its funny tho cos the DW1 intro movie showed metalmamemon and metalgreymon and the american boxart flipped a coin and decided metalgreymon must have been the one the protagonist was using in that scene. Whoops!)

anyway even with the added context that IT WAS INDEED GODDAMN ANALOGMAN, the final boss fight in Next Order was as terrible as the rest of the plot. So I’m glad trash gramps got a suitably badass boss fight after all, even if it was a CARD GAME VERSION! lets all celebrate the awesomeness of this obscure fuckin spinoff game’s obscure fuckin intercontinuity cameo with the boss fight music that other game wasted

youtube

seriously fuckin hell the biggest challenge in that final boss was that i was so distracted by SHEER OFFENDEDNESS at the cool music not matching it that it was hard to keep focused

its not just a great boss theme for a terrible boss, its a really fuckin EMOTIONAL song for anyone whose childhood was fuckin defined by the first game!!!

and look you had a PERFECT FUCKIN EXCUSE for a REALLY GOOD boss battle against MY MAN GRUMPY GRANDPA OF THE COOL DAMN NAME. Seriously guys analogman was THE FIRST digimon villain! digimon world came out before the anime, digimon world was the BETA FOR THE ANIME! this was the first place they had the ideas for file island, so much of the areas in the game are awkwardly mistranslated versions of stuff that would later appear in the anime in a different form. before this digimon had never been anything more than a fuckin 2-bit graphics tamagotchi and this was (after the manga) only the second goddamn time these monsters had an actual full colour character design! all of those charmingly janky 90s gross out show styled tcg illustrations? that was concept art that this game was working from! fuckin hell this game thought up the idea for metalgreymon’s changed design that ended up becoming the iconic partner of tai in the anime. (you can also see beta tai in the manga with a beta veemon as a partner instead! o_O)

SO LIKE...

JUST....

I HAVE FEELINGS ABOUT ANALOGMAN OKAY!!! he’s a badly written guy with only like five sentences across all the videogames but fuckin hell he was such an Iconique part of the development of this series that they named him fucking ANALOGMAN

like dude you could have SO EASILY made me scream at my tv in a more positive way by bringing him out as the surprise villain and showing us wtf his deisgn is even supposed to look like cos god all we have is a blurry faceless early ps1 model buried under the glow filters of Mt Infinity’s funky background effects.

AND FUCKING

IF IT IS CANON

THAT MY FUCKIN

STUPID THEORY

IS CANON

slap a fuckin O on this man and LITERALLY LET ME BEAT HIM UP

like dont even give him a team or anything, just let me fight THE MAN HIMSELF

you canonically fuckin said he’s a digital ghost now and basically the same as a digimon

let me beat the shit out of a regular businessman in a suit and tie while he pulls his badass ‘i’m hacking the game i’m in’ bullshit from the GODDAMN TCG GAME THAT WAS MORE CLIMACTIC THAN YOUR SHITTY CASH GRAB FAKE SEQUEL

man god i didnt expect a fuckin TCG GAME to revive my righteous fury from back when i first played that piece of shit. i hate it cos Next order is so pretty and its gameplay is so good and i really loved my twin digis but there were SO MANY bugs and cut corners and missing content and really bad writing and GOD it made me so sad that the dub team really really tried, they tried so hard that they got fuckin renamon’s original voice actress back even though the renamon in this game has nothing to do with the anime one. THE DUB WAS REALLY GOOD BUT IT COULDNT SALVAGE THAT SCRIPT!! THE MUSIC WAS REALLY GOOD AND THE ART WAS REALLY GOOD AND THE DIGIMON THEMSELVES WERE MY BEST DAMN FRIENDS FOR THAT MONTH OF MY LIFE BUT THE GODDAMN FUCKIN SCRIPT!!! the postgame was MORE FUN because FINALLY everything opened up like the sandbox of the first game and you could just fuckin hug u digis without being distracted by constant cutscenes butchering your childhood nostalgia

man i wanted to write a fic/draw a comic about my headcanons on how to fix it but i never managed to do it cos holy shit it was basically “throw everything out and make a different game geez” I COULD RAMBLE FOR HOURS ABOUT THE ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SEQUEL THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN!! and a fuckin!! tcg game!! was closer to that sequel!!!

and fuckin MY THEORY WAS RIGHT AND MY BETTER GAME IDEA ACTUALLY WOULD WORK IN CANON

fuck it im gonna do draw myself decking business gramps in the face

oh! and the female protagonist design! thats another rare good part of that thing! i loved the pixellization effect on her ponytal, way better than the male equivelant having a very ordinary costume design just with a pixel corner taken out of his jacket. also why did the plot never actually make a thing out of that? like you’d think that ‘unlike every other digimon tamer i’ve got this scar of my digitization’ would be a plot point. like they didnt give everyone else a cool pixel squares mark! they could have at least used it as an excuse why the protagonist is the Only Chosen One who can do all this plot shit. or if it was me i would have made it early foreshadowing for the Return Of Business Gramps, like you were partially infected by the Oooo Mysterious Unexplained Digi Virus (seriously why did they not just have ONE SENTENCE explaining its the fuckin original villain returning????) during the prologue and i dunno somehow that gives you powers to break analogman’s control on the digimon he possesses. or maybe the pixel thing is like a tracking device he put on you? or just give that cool design trait to the protagonist of digimon cyber sleuth instead, whose entire plot is that theyre a digimon human hybrid with literaly the power to pixellize themself into computers.

ALSO!!! actually do something!!! with mameo!!!

they really fuckin hyped up in all the prelease materials that the digimon world 1 protagonist was gonna be in this game and he’s all grown up now. and then he does NOTHING in the plot except babble exposition and stand around your home base. and has one line about how he’s a badass teacher now and his partner is mamemon but hey we made a bullshit excuse for why his digimon is sealed away and he never gets to fight :<

give me an actual cool teamup of new protag girl and her cool teacher dude beating the shit out of business trash with their bare fists and also their digimon’s bare fists while THE BEST DAMN MUSIC GOES UNWASTED

...fuck i sure do Feel Intensely about nostalgic games lol. i wonder if i’ll be so rambley when i play kh3? maybe itd be a really shitty lp, aaagh...

#no gramps shall go unappreciated in the bunni house

Rockman.EXE Episode 43 Review.

Ahhh! Where did that woman come from?!

Hi everyone, we have stumbled across the third episode that was never aired outside of Japan, why is that? I don’t know, but let’s try to find out.

Oh man, I know nothing about baseball, this episode is gonna eat me alive! T.T

We start the episode in Netto’s house one evening where he and Rockman are focused on a baseball game.

Aren’t they adorable? But now I’m curious, is Rockman watching from the same TV as Netto or he is live streaming it online? It could be a live streaming because we also see Dekao watching the same game from his computer.

Maybe Dekao doesn’t have cable?

They are watching a player name Hoshida Kyuuma who surprises everyone with a homerun. Both Netto and Rockman cheer for the player as he runs the bases making some famous gesture he has of scratching his nose, something that Netto copies before the title screen appears.

Nihon Senators? It’s not bad, but at least make up something creative, there is a real Japanese team called the Ham- Fighthers after all.

The next day, Netto greets Dekao and Tohru on his way to school taking part in the stereotypical guy exchange of “did you catched the game last night?” With Meiru and Roll stereotypically uninterested in the subject.

“Next thing your gonna say is that cars are cool”

At school, Mariko-sensei introduces a new student to everyone who just so happens to have the same last name as the baseball player they saw last night.

Geez, what a depressing looking kid. He looks sadder than Tohru’s picture in the N-1.

After introducing this new character, we then cut to them at P.E. where Netto and the rest of the class are playing, coincidentally, baseball.

Uhg, somehow Dekao in sports cloths looks fatter than usual.

Netto is at the bat, Dekao is the pitcher and Yaito is the catcher who makes hand signals to the pitcher behind the batters back. Looks like Netto sucks a this because Yaito kicks him out after calling Dekao a cheater and only getting two strikes.

I never thought I would miss their Navis commentating. It feels boring watching them on their own for so long, especially doing something unrelated to the net.

Mariko-sensei models her pink sweatsuit as she calls the new kid at the bat. Dekao is confident in his pitch, but Kyuuta shuts him off by hitting a homerun and surprising everyone.

As Kyuuta runs the bases and scratches his nose, Mariko-sensei reveals to everyone that he is the son of the baseball player Hoshida Kyuuma.

This is enough to make him “mister popular” since Netto and his friends start talking to him.

“So... Do you like Net Battles?”

He doesn’t seem happy with all this attention since he suddenly stands up after Yaito mentions his dad being transfered from another team.

Turns out Kyuuta is sad because he misses his friends since he is sitting alone after school looking at a baseball covered in signatures and starts crying. Netto walks in and asks him if he wants to walk home together (lucky bastard), but he ignores him and accidentally drops his baseball that rolls over to Netto’s feet. Netto picks it up and then notices that Kyuuta was crying.

Wish I had someone like Netto ask me to walk home together back when I was in elementary school. Sure, it’s dangerous for kids to walk home by themselves in Costa Rica and my house was pretty far, but I was a very lonely child, okay? :c

Kyuuta wipes his tears and just leaves Netto with the baseball. In the next scene we see Kyuuta arriving at his house.

You should answer when your mom asks you a question! I can never get away with that!

I wanna point out something first. This anime is not the best at portraying good mom characters, you know how I constantly call Netto’s mom a useless woman? Well this one right here I’m gonna call her... Sad face woman in the corner. It seems cruel, but believe me, you’ll see why.

We see Kyuuta sulking in his room when Netto and his friends arrive at his house to return the baseball he dropped. Kyuuta just puts on his shoes and tells him that he doesn’t want that ball anymore and runs out of the house.

See? She did it again.

Anyway, as Kyuuta is running in front of the sunset, his mom tells everyone that he is sad because he is constantly changing schools because of his dad getting transfer to other teams, but in the last school he was in he made friends with the kids in a baseball team and had to leave them behind to go to Akihara.

Kyuuta’s dad overhears this and gets all fired up for some reason while the mom does what she does best and goes hide behind a corner to cry.

THIS is when you realize this episode is not to be taken seriously. It is obvious that they are making fun of something. I would say this is a satyre of sports anime, but since the only sports anime I know is Captain Tsubasa I’m not really sure if there are others like that one.

So Netto and his friends along with Kyuuta’s parents find him and say that everything is alright since they figured out a way of solving his problem, by using the net!

They tell Kyuuta to go to a stadium where he finds his friends from the baseball team on a huge screen. They ask him to play baseball with them, Kyuuta doesn’t understand what they mean and that’s when Netto and all his friends including Tohru, Higure-san and the Net Agents, explain to him that thanks to the internet and some super special equipment installed in that stadium, they can play baseball using their Navis.

And of course Kyuuta just happens to have a Navi name Leagueman, but I have no idea why he has restrains.

Right before commercials we see Dekao planning to get his revenge against Kyuuta as we see Gutsman in a baseball uniform at the bat, only to return with Midorikawa as the commentator and Gutsman getting three strikes in a matter of seconds.

Aren’t they just balls if the batter doesn’t swing?

So yeah, in this episode we get to see some of our favorite Navis, and Glyde, playing baseball and wearing uniforms. Skullman is up next where we can see how the field switches from humans to Navis.

But I can’t tell if they are like holograms or if there is a seperate cyberworld for them with the same field.

Skullman proves to be a good player because of his speed and attempts to steal the bases as Glyde is next at the bat. Leagueman quickly get the upper hand by making Glyde strike out before Skullman can steal all the bases.

Thumbs up at Glydes pants.

Now it’s Woodman’s turn at the bat, but he quickly gets three strikes off screen and Saloma confesses that she have never played baseball before, to which Miyuki replies with annoyance as we see Skullman’s image break down and regenarating into Miyuki standing on the same base.

Again, making it very confusing how the set up is suppouse to be like.

Now we get Midorikawa naming the line up for the Akihara team.

Rockman looks so cute in that uniform! But I don’t understand why Gutsman has a plant in his mouth, is that like the Japanese version of the old gag of baseball players chewing tabacco?.

Roll-chan is the pitcher, and yes, she throws like a girl, and maybe that’s the reason why most of the balls she throws are hitted.

The batter hits the ball, but luckily the cute shortstopper catches it for her.

Their interactions are just so cute.

Now, if you are a baseball expert, unlike me, then get ready for to see how crazy Navi baseball can be.

The batter hits the ball, but it’s too high for Numberman to reach it, so Woodman creates a platform for Numberman so he can stop the ball and “pass it” to Skullman.

Kyuuta’s father, who is with Midorikawa at the commentator booth, praises their teamwork, a confused Midorikawa asks him if that is allowed, but then she gets this.

Thanks to the subs and by searching on google I figured out that this guy is actually doing a play on words. “Ari” is also used to affirm something in a sentence and he dresses up as an ant because Ari also means ant in Japanese.

We get more Navi baseball madness when Iceman freezes a ball to catch it and throw it at Woodman.

“Ant, I mean, yes.”

I haven’t seen these many fouls in a sports game since Space Jam.

Now the moment we’ve all been waiting for, it’s finally Rockman’s turn at the bat! Yaaaaaaaaay!

Save me from this nonsense, Rockman!

The humans are replaced by their Navis, and is it just me or is Netto and Rockman’s art a little diferent in the last panels? Either that or they suddenly got dirty

Leagueman does a ballet pose and throws the ball in a weird way, Rockman is ready to hit it, but the ball suddenly splits in two.

Rockman get’s his first strike. Midorikawa asks Kyuuma what just happened, he explaines that it’s a move called the “Mayor ball”. Leagueman put pressure into the ball and mixed with the sand from his kick created an illusion of a second ball. That’s quality BS right there, and WHY THE HELL IS HIS LINEART SUDDENLY DIFERENT IN THIS SHOT?

It’s like seeing an Archer crossover. o_o

What is the meaning of the dragon vs tiger scene? Because this also happend in episode 40.

Leagueman throws the ball again and Rockman gets a second strike. You would think that this time he would go for the first ball, but they reused the animation from before.

After their second stike Rockman and Netto figured out a way of outsmarting this move, if they can’t tell which ball is real then they’ll just have to hit both with this over the top anime scene.

If Rockman wears pants, does it still count as a butt shot?

Rockman hits a homerun and Leagueman praises him after he runs the bases, but then Commander Beef ruins the moment by anouncing that it is Sharkman’s turn at the bat and then getting three strikes.

It looks like Sharkman is bitting his tongue. :P

Then Higure pushes the commander out of the way to plug in Numberman, and what a surprise, he gets three strikes as well. So in short, everyone sucks except for Rockman.

We then get various shots of the rest of the game and for some reason a close up of Gutsman’s jaw plant.

Oh great, Rush is there too, now I definitely have no idea if this shot is from the real world or the cyberworld.

The series of pictures ends with Roll-chan looking tired and Midorikawa telling us how it looks so far.

I have no idea what she just said, but I guess that is baseball talk for “Akihara team is losing, and with Leagueman at the bat they are pretty much screwed”

But worrry not since Akihara still has their secret weapon, Rockman! With Rush calling to change the pitcher because apperantly he’s the coach now.

I did some research, and it seems to me that the shortstop position is kinda important, so why the hell is Rush a better option than Roll?!

So once again Rockman, Netto and now Leagueman’s lineart changes, (along with a coloring mistake on Rockman’s neck) Rockman pitches and Leagueman gets two balls, not strikes, balls.

Rockman throws the ball a third time breaking Leagueman’s bat.

I don’t know if that counts as anything. Has this ever happen in baseball?

Now get this, since Leagueman’s bat is broken, Kyuuta’s dad leaves the commentator booth to give HIM some special red bat he had with him and says how Netto and the others are very good friends to him since they are giving him a good game.

Those last shots just made things even more confusing! Can he see Rockman standing there or was he just looking at Netto the whole time?

Kyuuta accepts the bat from his dad that somehow ends up in Leagueman’s hands and we get this last shot of sad face woman in the corner watching from afar as always.

Still, she cares more about her son than Netto’s useless mom does for him. She even came to watch him play, so this is the best mom I’ve seen in this show which is pretty sad if you think about it.

Rockman pitches one last time with the whole dragon vs tiger background again, where Leagueman finally hits the ball and it’s a homerun!

And of course he has to break a light with that homerun, or is it a cyber light? IDK O.O

Leagueman runs the bases scratching the nose he doesn’t have, Netto congratulates kyuuta and the episode ends with Midorikawa announcing Kyuuta’s team as the winners. Oh, and a little sceane with Rush losing to a Metool virus.

Admit it, by good players you just mean Rockman.

My thought?

This episode was crazy! A little confusing, but fun to watch. It’s nice to see some of the characters play a casual game of Baseball because its something diferent to what we normaly see. The episode was obviously a satyre of sports animes (Again, I dont know any sports anime besides Captain Tsubasa), the overdramatic characters, the over the top animation, the art style, the firing up thing that happend like four times in this episode mostly from Kyuuta’s dad, and maybe other things that I didn’t catch.

This episode is indeed a filler, but that can’t be the only reason why this episode was never dubbed. So I made up these criterias to figure out the reason why it didn’t aired in America.

1. Was an important new character introduced that will appear in future episodes?

2. Does it introduce a new game, style or battle system that fits in with the theme of the show and will be mentioned again?

3. Will the dubbing for this episode be worth the effort?

Let me explain using episode 40 as an example. With the first criteria, even though Torakichi and Kingman never appear again in future episodes, they were still considered important characters in the Battle Network series, especially since the purpose for the episode was to promote the upcoming Battle Network 3 game.

Yes and no for the second criteria. It fits the theme of the show because it combines Net Battles with chess, but it is not mention again.

And for the third criteria, it was not hard to dub, there was no reason to explain Net Chess Battles because we already know how Net Battle works and Chess is already world wide knowen as a game.

Now for this episode. First, no. Kyuuta, leagueman, his parents and his baseball friends are not important in any way and are never seen again.

Second, it was just baseball. Even though we saw the Navis used their abilities during the game, it was still baseball. It did not have Net Battle rules and it is never mentioned or seen again.

And third, it was not worth the effort to dub. Trying to explain how Navi Baseball worked, especially since Japan didn’t do a good job in explaining it, would’ve required unecessary effort. They would have skipped the ant joke, but how would they explain how the Navis seemed to be in the real world? It was terrible confusing because it is the first time we see something like this on the show. People would get curious to see this again only to find out that this was a one time thing.

So that’s strike three and this episode is out of the dubbed version!
