Silver Talks AniManga (30/04/23)
there was no WSJ this week cause of golden week break but there was still some other stuff, like the new manga from the danberu duo or me catching up some anime
also starting from this week gonna have some background colours in the series list too, to make it easier to parse at a glance, but I'll include the meaning for them before it always
also I meant to watch a couple more anime (at least the first 3 eps) but got distracted with other stuff during the week. oops, I'll get to it tho, it's only a couple more
green - new series (anime in the first 3 eps count as new but silver those are more than the first 3 yeah but I meant to watch them before 4 came out let me live)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Anime
Uma Musume - Road to the Top Ep1 - 2
bruh. idk why these damn horse girls have such a grip on me but they do some places in s1 made me cry and this was wrenching my heart too which is fucked up cause I'm usually p unaffected by stuff anyway, this is a special ONA that'll be just 4 episode, you can even watch it all on uma musume's youtube WITH english subs even it looks great, since it's cygames own studio, the music's great, the voice acting is great, all the quality you'd expect from one of the top grossing gachas in the world (despite being jp only) the thing that surprised me the most was how good the character acting is tho, ofc uma musume has always had the little details with tails and ears but sheesh also I'm loving to see ayabe and my prince opera in action, some horses I've really come to like a lot in recent years cause of twitter
Tumblr media
Uma Musume - Road to the Top Ep3
oh tehe I didn't realize ep 3 was gonna fall in this week's post too, putting it separately like this instead of 1-3 to not disrupt the thoughts from when I watched those, anyway good ep, had me tearing up AGAIN (damn horses..), it pains me to see ayabe suffering so much :( but I was looking up stuff about the main trio after the other 2 eps and saw Real Horse Lore so I know what's gonna happen in the finale already lol, it'll still be good tho
Tumblr media
Megumin Ep1 - 4
let me start off by saying I'm never watched konosuba cause of aqua, kazuma and darkness, however I do like megumin. watching this since I know I wouldn't need to watch it to know anything (tho if you spent any time on tumblr back when it first came out you've seen it all through gifs and caps and clips like me so..) but anyway
it's alright, the only good animation moment was at the start of ep 1 with, of course, the explosion but I shouldn't have expected much considering what I know, oh well. however, takarie (megumin) and toyosaki aki (yunyun) really carry it with their performances, tho mostly takarie cause of how megumin in lol
not really much to say other than that so far, if you like megumin then it's a must watch show but you already knew that if you do. she should be using her first explosion next ep (5) so that should be cool
Tumblr media
Imas CG: U149 Ep1 - 4
TL;DR: if you weren't gonna watch U149 cause "it's just for kids" you're wrong, and if you like the previous im@s anime do yourself a favour and watch it cause it's incredibly good too. I'll be honest I wasn't too sure about U149 at first, since it's the kids from CG I thought it was gonna be, well, aimed to kids as a way to bring them in into the franchise but I was very wrong! The show is incredibly good. It follows the same structure as the original im@s anime of having and episode dedicated to each of the cast members (completed with their character song as the ed) and it can actually be serious. Like in ep 3, miria is live streaming with satou shin and she gets some hate messages in the chat and it's a very tense scene. they even did this cool trick where the noticeably muted the colours during that scene to give it an heavier atmosphere it was so good man. Also I love all the cameos of other cg girls, the direct and background easter egg ones too. Also because I played the game hearing the insert songs and eds just got me going like that leo pointing me lol. Anyway I'm start to ramble too much but, please understand, I love idols. A lot. One final thing I'll say however is: it was very funny going directly from megumin into this and seeing the difference in quality; Megumin has the bare minimum of animation (cause kadokawa) but you can really see the passion behind U149, all the characters got little details and you can see their personality with how they move and interact with each other.
Tumblr media
Mashle Ep4
still nothing crazy animation but we did get the lance fight and the first muscle magic moment, and it actually didn't look half bad which gives me hope for fights later on but we'll see how it turns out
Tumblr media
Pokemon Horizons Ep4
nice ep, mostly an introduction to roy the other protag, he isn't nearly as annoying as he could be so that's good, there was also a buncha good expressions so that's fun
Tumblr media
Jigokuraku Ep5
nice episode, mostly exposition and set up so some people aren't gonna like it, but it happens every now and then in the breaks between action. also they really made takarie say chinpo noooo
Tumblr media
Manga
ST✰R: Strike it Rich Ch 0 - 1
new manga by the duo behind danberu, yabako and maam, it's probably gonna be set in the kengan universe since it's yabako writing it but we'll see. anyway like it said in the post I made before, it's about a underground fighting ring for women, it came out with a prologue chap and the 1st one, setting up all the characters and all that, the art is a lot more brutal than I expected since I just see danberu as ripped cute girl fanservice but shoulda kown better not really much else to say, chap 1 ended with a big cliffhanger, I wish it was a bit longer, hina down here seems interesting enough tho so we'll see how it goes, gonna be rough remembering to read it tho since it's biweekly
Tumblr media
Dandadan Ch103
nice and emotional chap, should only have 1 or 2 more left of vamola's backstory now
Tumblr media
Saihate Quartet Ch10
not much to say, tho it's nice that luci's already shown up to the cast according to my buddy mega it's not doing great in terms of views, so it's very likely to get canceled/end soon so that's a rip
Tumblr media
Kaiju 8 Ch85
the first 1v1 fight to end, they didn't have to go full yaiba at the end there but it was still good. next up is cap narumi so that should be good too tho the one I'm looking forward to the most is hoshina's
Tumblr media
Shuumatsu no Valkyrie Ch77
aww I was hoping they'd say who the next fight was gonna be but they didn't, didn't expect to see siegfried tho but since he's been established now there's no way he's not gonna do something later
Tumblr media
Jiangshi X Ch14
thought this was gonna be the classic "mc awakens to a power they didn't know they had when in danger" but it was just the amulet his dad gave him (? afaik), also I think the art looked off this week? but might be just me
Tumblr media
Spy x Family Ch79
nice yor centric chap, been a while, tho her harpie coworkers were annoying me with their jealousness
Tumblr media
Ayakashi Triangle Ch128
ah yes the classic aquarium date, expecting a lot of shenanigans next week since everyone's following them

Can you write a drabble about my King Under the Mountain, Lord Smaug? 🔥🔥You need more dragons on your page, mlady Faun 🐉
Smaug~ Treasure Hoarding
Synopsis: Accidentally coming across the lonely mountain in one of your escapades, you find your idol, Smaug, the King Under the Mountain. Making a deal with a dragon who hoards treasure would be beneficial for a little thief like you, wouldn’t it? 
🍃Masterlist🍃 Gender neutral MC!
A/n: I should never expect less from a dragon… Well, my liege, I hope you're impressed! You were a bit vague on the details… but I assumed you wanted something good and not an angsty piece about after his death… 😁 So, you get a dragon friend! …Or whatever Smaug is to you!
–Word Count: 2,359 –
The wind practically whistled beside your ear as the arrow brushed past your head. You should have used a little more caution when passing through the little fishing town, but it was nothing you couldn’t handle. Well, they weren’t shy in pursuing you well outside of their city, but they were certainly falling behind. You thought men on horses would have a better chance against someone on foot carrying bags of gold. To be fair, you had more than a few bags, but the rest of your collection was waiting for you beside the mountain just across the lake. As soon as these men left you alone, you wouldn’t squander your chance to get back there and add your recent findings. 
Lucky for you, those humans seemed to know when enough was enough and failed to follow you closer to the mountain. 
You jovially hummed to yourself, heading over to your hidden wagon, dripping with gold coins and various other treasures and jewels. Though, you knew your beloved treasure would get attention, so you decided it was time to find a good hiding place to settle down. Nothing, you thought, was better than a mountain where humans were wary to follow. Besides, if you were lucky, you’d find treasure already in there. All you’d have to do was fight off whoever owned the treasure. Then you’d have both treasure and a mountain to hide. Besides, this had to be one good mountain for a thief considering no one else dared approach.
Densely neglecting and disregarding the surrounding scenery, you excitedly entered the entrance of the mountain, a wide opening which looked like it should have had closed gates. Lucky for you, this seemed to be a mountain abandoned by dwarves. Giddy with excitement, you pulled your load of treasure behind you, traveling deep into the mountain. You’d only settle for the best hiding place for your collection. After all, you couldn’t have someone just happening across your belongings and mistaking them for unclaimed things; they were yours. 
However, it seemed the deeper you went, the heavier the air became. It was as if some magic hung over this place… Ah well, that was none of your concern. If there was a foreboding presence, then there was no doubt your treasure would be safe from intruders.
Standing in the door to another hall, you paused, your eyes glittering. With the lone bag on your back, you abandoned your cart in the hall, sprinting for the large doors before you. Your wide eyes scanned the room you found yourself in, flickering to and fro across the sea of gold. You’d have missed it before had it not been illuminating the entire area with a sheen of golden light. 
This was perfect. If those humans didn’t dare enter and find this trove then how could they dare to follow you and find yours? Feeling cocky and certain of yourself, you left your wagon at the door, carrying with you a few bags of gold, the start of your collection if you were to find a good hiding place. You didn’t want to just dump it in with the rest of this collection, you’d never be able to sort yours from the ones already here. Besides, you were prideful and wanted to keep track of how much treasure you personally collected before happening across this magnificent trove of sparkling wonders. 
The path was tricky and you, too many times, slipped upon the piles of gold. It was more difficult than walking upon sand dunes; these coins would like to devour you whole. Though, you thought you were having a fairly easy time of it, until the ground beneath you shifted. 
Frantically, you clawed at the mountain of coin to gain proper footing, but it was all in vain. Tumbling down, down, and further down the clattering gold, you were nearly buried under the tumbling coins. It was all you could do to keep your head above them, scrambling to free yourself. You suppose people weren’t exaggerating when they said too much gold could kill a person. You hadn’t taken it literally before now as you dug your way free from your shimmering prison. 
Feeling a puff of air blow your hair into your face, you froze in place, realizing just why no one had pursued you. This mountain… was the lonely mountain. You were in Erebor. And this dragon that gazed down upon you as if you were a mouse was none other than Smaug, the King under the mountain.
You should have been terrified, you should have feared death, but you could only kneel in awe of your idol from the stories. Once again, your eyes were glittering in delight, and this dragon seemed to sense that odd emotion coming off of you—it wasn’t fear. 
The great dragon hissed, “What mortal dares to enter the domain of the Great Smaug?” He meant to intimidate you, but you adored the intensity of his voice. He had astonishingly accomplished the complete opposite of what he intended.
“My Lord Smaug,” you praised him as though he were a god. “I should have realized sooner—an embarrassing mistake on my part that I shan't make again,” you promised vehemently. Despite your mortification at not recognizing the domain of this great King, you soon collected yourself as you continued to praise his magnificence, “The stories speak for themselves, your excellency! The ability to steal a trove of treasure but in a single moment…” You trailed off, ogling the great dragon. 
“And you dare threaten to steal from me?” Smaug tilted his head, regarding you with his sharp, serpentine eyes. “I will not part with a single coin; not one piece of it.”
“Of course not, my Lord!” You waved him down from a near tantrum, well aware of just how territorial dragons could be of their gold—you weren't all too different from him, after all. Eagerly, you presented your bag of treasure to him. “I… have a request, otherwise,” you timidly suggested. “I'm not here to steal, but rather… I'd like to strike a deal with a wise and powerful dragon. If you were to permit me, your excellence.”
Your heart raced as his head drew nearer to you. He was so much larger when he was hardly a foot away from you. But the sudden puffs of air that fluttered your hair made you quickly come to realize that he was sniffing you.
“This treasure is not of this mountain,” he huffed, pulling away and laying back atop his hoard. Luckily, you weren't perceived as a threat for the moment. “Speak, mortal.” 
“Well, then, my Lord, I just so happen to be a distinguished thief! Similar to you, my great excellency, I, myself, have accumulated a vast wealth of treasures over my time!” You proudly proclaimed your accomplishments, despite many of those treasures being lost. “Well… I've had the misfortune of never having a great place to safekeep them exactly… Until now! Great Smaug, with all your wisdom, would you allow me, a poor soul, to add my bountiful treasures to your hoard for your safekeeping?” 
It was quite agonizing for you, waiting for him to deliberate and contemplate. However, only after willingly displaying your wagon of treasure was a deal struck. You were a fortunate soul to be able to store your various treasures in the hoard. Of course, you had your own pile, separate from his on a ledge that hovered over the large trove. 
And day after day you would leave, sometimes you wouldn't return for days, but when you did return it was always with trinkets and treasures and gold to add to Smaug’s unnoticeably growing treasure hoard. 
However, your back and forth traveling only leads others to become interested in the abandoned, lonely mountain. After all, if someone like you could go in and come back out alive then surely the dragon had either fled or perished. So certain of their beliefs, they entered the mountain after their notorious thief, determined to get back their gold and steal from the limitless and bountiful riches within the depths of the mountain.
Unfortunately for them… You led them to exactly where they wanted to go, only to vanish the minute they lost themselves in the heaps and mountains of gold. 
“L- Look at all of this… We'll never have to work a day in our lives!”
“But that bastard thief… We can't have ‘em snatchin’ our gold. Where's that little rat?!”
“Here,” you announce, revealing your position atop a pile of gold, high above where they stood. You held a sword in your hands, but you weren't intending to use it. Your eyes narrowed, but the smile on your lips betrayed your glee. “You've made a mistake in coming here. This gold is not yours for the taking.”
“We're not here to ask for permission, thieving scum!”
“I can't pity a poor soul like you,” you solemnly replied, unconcerned with their approach. “Your excellency, these mortal men mean to steal from you.” 
The men froze at the foot of the gold lump, their eyes widening as the gold coin began cascading down like a waterfall. However, the more gold that fell, the more horror filled them. 
“That… That’s the dragon, that is!”
“Smaaaauug! We're gonna die!”
Their squeals didn't last long as blazing heat filled the room, burning the foolish men to a crisp. The sight enthralled you as you grinned, standing atop the head of your beloved King under the mountain. “We surely make a great team, my Lord.” You hummed in content, sitting down as you leaned against his horns. He too burrowed himself beneath the cool coin that surrounded him, relaxing atop his hoard. “You know,” you added thoughtfully, “I put a lot of my stuff in here and I really owe you for taking me in and protecting all of it. If there's anything you ever want, lemme know! Nothings off limits!” 
Though Smaug remained silent, his inaudible rumbling revealed his intrigue to your offer. Finally, he revealed his desire, “There is a golden ring that interests me… A golden ring of power. It is easy to recognize… Should you come across such an invaluable treasure as this, I should command that you bring it to me.”
“Yes, sir, my Lord! That ring is as good as yours if it ever crosses my path!” Your promises are always well kept, though he knew the chance of you coming across the ring was slim to none… He had to demand it. 
Well beyond that day, you continued to bring to him your trinkets and treats for months… years… centuries. Such a long, long time. Smaug would have otherwise not cared for the passage of time were it not for your coming and going, and his occasional leaving the mountain. 
Again sitting with you amongst the piles of gold, he commented, “You… are an odd human.”
You inclined your head curiously to regard his larger figure. “Human? My Lord, I'm half human.” 
His hums of intrigue vibrated the gold you sat upon as he mused aloud, “That explains the odd inhuman scent that follows you. An impressive little mortal.” Only being half human, it was no wonder you could accomplish the feats you did and bring back as many gifts as you have the past centuries. 
“I’m sure I smell profusely of dragon and gold at this point,” you couldn’t help but joke in response. But even if you did smell of nothing but dragon and gold, you were proud of it. You’d wear this scent like a badge of honor, proud to be the mortal companion of the great and powerful King under the mountain. “I’m glad to be with you, my King.”
You sat relaxed atop a gold hill, a reddish scaled tail trailed around you, peeking out from beneath the thousands of golden pieces. Beside you was a full view of your dragon friend amidst his hoard. You were determined to stay by his side and continue bringing him treasures until you found the ring he once mentioned. It was the only desire he’d ever named to you and you were determined to one day come across it and gift it to him.
Smaug, on the other hand, was content with you going and coming with your menial treasures as if you, yourself were a mouse-sized dragon with your own nest-sized hoard. You were oddly adorable, something he didn’t imagine he could feel about another living creature. Knowing what he knew… it was safe to say he was fond of his little half-human. 
His tail coiled further around you, not ensnaring you or trapping you, but comfortingly surrounding you, claiming you. “My precious little treasure…” His voice came out as a low rumble as he buried his head further in his pile of gold. 
You were convinced he was muttering about his hoard of gold, ignorant to the way his tail curled possessively around you, the scales nudging against your back. You simply took this as an affectionate brush, leaned further against his tail, patting his scales in return. How were you supposed to know that you’d suddenly become a part of a dragon’s hoard? And should you fail to ever return to him… Well, those unfortunate cities would understand why it is unwise to part a dragon from his treasure.

Rybek: Ryker's flirting failures
let's all laugh at my failed attempts to flirt with Sebek/show him how much I love him together @starboyshoyo come laugh with me also lmao you guys can really learn a lot about me through Rybek
Attempt #1
Ryker had spent a lot of time in the botanical garden trying to find the perfect flower to describe how he feels towards Sebek. The language of flowers was one Ryker loves, and he had rambled to Sebek many times about flowers and their meanings.
After about half an hour of trying to decide on a flower, he finally picked a small stem with forget-me-nots; the flower meaning true love. In the wide varieties of flowers, there are so many to describe love and it took Ryker a while to settle on just one.
"Sebek! I got these for you."
Nervously, the small boy held out the flowers.
"Flowers, and forget-me-nots too...thank you. I will treasure the flowers, and do what I can to help you."
"Huh?"
Help him? Ryker was certainly confused. Why would he need help if he's saying he truly loves Sebek?
"Forget-me-nots mean memories, so you are having problems remembering things again? Do you know what you could be forgetting?"
Right...forget-me-nots also mean memories...he was so caught up in finding a flower to fit his love that he did forget about that. How could he forget about that? He should've just done something with a more simple meaning like a red rose.
While Ryker has had problems remembering things in the past, that wasn't really his intention this time. But of course, Sebek was there to help him like the caring boyfriend he is. And Ryker just accepted this failure.
"I'm just forgetting my flower language again, that's all."
Attempt #2
This time, Ryker would not forget anything. Baking was yet another thing Ryker loved, and he could share his treats with Sebek. One of the things he loved to bake was cookies, and he even had a family recipe for really good cookies.
Baking was a step by step process that he had memorized, so there's no way he could forget something. He was proud with how well the cookies turned out in the end, and he was sure they would be perfect for Sebek.
Proud of his work, he stacked them all on a plate and made his way to Diasomnia. Upon entering the dorm, he found his beloved boyfriend in the lounge with the other students.
"Sebek dear, I brought cookies."
"Cookies? How adorable!"
Lilia was faster to react than Sebek and cooing about how adorable it was that Ryker made cookies. As Sebek got up to greet and take the plate from him, Malleus also seemed to notice and be interested by the cookies.
"I wasn't aware you had baking abilities. How delightful."
Sebek seemed to perk up and notice an opportunity at Malleus' words.
"Would you like one my lord?"
"They are not mine for taking. Ryker is the one who brought them, so he is the one who decides who they're for."
Do you hear that sound? It's the sound of Ryker crying on the inside. Because while he made the cookies for Sebek, how could he turn down the fae prince (and Sebek's idol) from something he wants? Especially since he's being put on the spot, he can't really explain he made them for Sebek without crushing some hearts.
"Of course you can have some."
Yet another failure.
Attempt #3
Something he remembers and is clearly meant for Sebek...he could always show his support for Sebek by showing up to the Equestrian club and (quietly) cheering Sebek on. To Ryker, that sounded like a great way to show his support! I mean, he would love it if he was being cheered on during his club, and Sebek always loves to be praised and cheered for.
The big problem though...Ryker is scared of horses. He didn't mind them as much if they were at a distance and they were calm. But Sebek had so nicely set up a spot near the field where his things were, so Ryker had a nice close up view of the horses. Well, he was incredibly nervous, but surly nothing would happen. He just had to wait long enough for Sebek to do his part.
But alas...Sebek had raised his voice at something Silver said, and the horses started getting scared. Naturally they wanted to get away from what was scaring them, and they started freaking out a little bit. Sebek's horse in particular had took off in a light run and was going to head past Ryker's seat.
Even though the horse wasn't headed for Ryker, just the fact that it was freaking out and running closely past him was enough to scare him. Fight or flight kicked into his system, and Ryker was always prone to flight. He quickly scrambled back and tried to secure himself further back on the seats, hitting his leg against the hard metal of the seats in the process. Once near the top of the seats, he practically had a death grip on it and it almost looked like he was trying to become one with the seat itself.
The horse had gone past Ryker's original spot without a problem, but the adrenaline in his system was still strong. Even after they had got the horse under control and Sebek had started to make his way to Ryker, the boy remained glued to his seat.
"Are you okay?!"
"I...I'm fine I think...but I may have to watch the practice from up here."
"You can hardly see the people from up here!"
"But the horses can freak out and keep their distance and I'll be fine...as long as they don't come any closer or freak out more."
"That horse wasn't going at it's full speed."
Hey look it's the sound of Ryker crying on the inside again! If that horse wasn't even going as fast or freaking out as much as it could, then there's no way he would be able to handle it if it did.
"I...I'm sorry Seb. I think I'm gonna have to leave. It's just too much..."
He didn't even get to cheer his boyfriend on. Another failure.
Attempt #4
Ryker was running out of ideas, and he turned to the last way he could possibly think of: cheesy pickup lines. He had found one he liked on the internet, and now he just had to work up the courage to say it to Sebek's face.
"There must be something wrong with my eyes. I can't take them off you."
"There is something wrong with your eyes? Are your glasses perhaps broken?"
...Why did he only focus on the first part of the flirt????
"No...my glasses are fine."
"Are you eyes perhaps injured?"
"Just...nevermind Sebek. I'm fine."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"Hey, Sebek?"
"Yes?"
"You know I love you right?"
"Of course! We would not be dating if you didn't."
"Yeah, but I mean I really love you. Like a lot. More than I can put into words."
"Heh. I love you too human."

Il Principe
Or- Power, as held and wielded by Kinn, my beloved son.
[Korn] [Porsche] [Vegas]
After the Insanely Amazing response I received for Part 1 of this series (particularly from my idols, my heroes @luckydragon10 @antique-forvalaka @moerusai and @yeetlegay ), here's my attempt at dissecting Kinn as a source of authority.
First- the man, the myth, the legend: Kinn Anakinn Theerapanyakul.
Tumblr media
Let me introduce you to a fun little concept called somaesthetics. Or as my professor called it, power is as power looks. Basically, the more aesthetically pleasing or powerful-looking a person is, the more power they amass. And Kinn has attractiveness in spades. He commands not only every gaze in the room, but also the minds behind them. The reason why most popular (or at least widely known) figures of authority/politicians have a signature style is because it is 1. designed for maximum impact and 2. meant to foster a feeling of affection through a sense of "knowing" or familiarity. Kinn uses this effortlessly by wearing a bespoke silhouette and a rich, jewel toned palette (mostly a deep maroon which, wouldn't you know, is considered a royal colour). His facial expression is a deliberate Imperious Raised Brow moment paired with a smirk, his shoulders and back are straight but relaxed (unlike Vegas, whose relaxed lean is also coiled and full of tension), his physique is chiselled and well-maintained and, as has been pointed out in previous IMM posts, he makes his every seat a Goddamn Throne- ALL motifs associated with power and authority. Simply put, Kinn gets part of his sway by looking powerful.
Much like Papa Korn, our boy Kinn is also seen as kind, mature, stable and honourable. We see bodyguards clamouring to be part of his inner circle. Unlike Papa Korn though, Kinn has another factor working for him- a tight inner circle of advisors who are the only people he places his trust in (as seen in- the classical Athenian parliament, the Pharaoh's inner court, Mughal emperor Akbar's 9 gems and yes, the classic Sicilian mafia structure- all extremely powerful, stable structures). He shows a basic level of courtesy and respect for his staff, as any employer would, but they're always held at an arm's length. And that exclusivity, my friends, has the effect of people simply attaching power to his person, without him having to do anything.
However, the Young Master's power is just that- young. He's more under threat of assassinations, horse-trading, betrayals because his claim to the throne is still in its fledgling stage of legitimacy. Only the masses have given him their seal of approval, not the other elites around him (except, of course, for his father). And the thing is, Kinn has a simple, yet uniquely ingenious safeguard- he shares power with his inner circle to reinforce his strength through numbers. Think about it- a circle of people who have the rare gem of his trust and adore his every breath. What better protective circle could a King ask for?
At this point, I'd also like to pick at a running theme with Kinn's character arc:
The juxtaposition of Kinn's unwilling, loving rule with that of Vegas' compulsive need for Absolute and Brutal Control.
The Queen and the King
First, Kinn vs Vegas- the two princelings
Tumblr media
If you look carefully, even though it's Vegas in the foreground, your eyes are immediately drawn to the far better lit and mystic-looking Kinn. As the older cousin, Kinn is not only a rung up in terms of age (a component that lends more power to your position in Asian cultures) but he is also actively given control of the Theerapanyakul operations. Why? Because Vegas is, simply put, one clown shoe short of a circus. He is cruel, needlessly violent, with a volatile emotional state, and palpably slimy (think Roman emperor Nero). You cannot cannot CANNOT trust this guy, even for what little trust is transacted in a Mafia setup. That is not to say that Vegas lacks power, but I'll talk about him in a later post. Again, look at the photo. See Kinn's expression? That is how I look at my nephew when he says that he's a big boy and can cook his own food- sure buddy, thank you for your contribution. He's actively dismissive of Vegas, not because he thinks his cousin is stupid, but forcibly stripping your rival of their power is what keeps yours going (Machiavelli, anyone?). Kinn outweighs Vegas in all aspects, except for one- Porsche. Which brings me to-
Tumblr media
Porsche is a wild card at this point. Yes, he is a kingmaker- Kinn's closest advisor, the only soul the prince can rely on eyes closed. Yes, he becomes the very thing that propels Kinn into, dare I say it?- overtaking his father's influence over their world. But for now, Porsche makes Kinn vulnerable. He makes Kinn jealous, anxious, irrational, honest, soft. So unless he locks that down and puts a ring on it (something that senpai @iffervescent explores in their fic The Power in the Taking), Porsche is a very visible chink in his armour and will be used by Vegas as a bargaining chip and an emotional battering ram to break Kinn. Overall, though Porsche is good for Kinn, because he stabilises the man, gives him a confidante. Any psephologist would tell you that an alliance of two is the ideal, because it has higher stability, flexibility and better cooperation and conflict resolution. Plus, like I mentioned before, Porsche's allegiance, his complete devotion is Kinn's (Porsche is that weapon that @laughsalot3412's fic talks about). He is the Queen- near indestructible and irrevocably, almost ferally, in love with the King. And what is a Kin(n)g without his Queen?
Tumblr media
In conclusion, Kinn is the manifestation of Machiavelli's Prince. A Lord of the Shadows, he rules with benediction and deception as his favourite weapons. He doles power out so it is returned tenfold. He is an enigma, beloved by his people and a cold, brutal opponent. He sacrifices his own personal code of honour so he can protect and bring order to those he rules over. This is the only incarnation of royalty that has my approval.

no one on my dash was talking about it at all so i need to be a hater for a second i know this is a safe space so sorry in advance but Um Anyways. earlier im sure u saw jack manifold was touring michael clifford from 5sos on the dsmp and u know i still actively dislike jack from Everything with april hell week but i do like michael a lot due to like remaining distant love from how obsessed i was with 5sos in like 2014. so i watched michael’s stream of it so i wouldn’t have to give jack a view. for starters he’s just fucking insufferable in general and whatever that’s a personal preference. but ig hannah is a huge 5sos fan which like based!! but he kept making such weird fucking comments about it. like she didn’t join bc until a bit later but jack kept making weird fucking comments about her being a fan of them to michael that just rubbed me such the fucking wrong way and it all feeds back into how he so obviously looks down upon women having interests in things aka my main takeaway from april hell week when he took women calling him out for being misogynistic and dismissed them and said they just had internalized misogyny (and my beloved fellow tumblrinas at that). like he kept being like “yeah hannah is a fan of u. she like idolizes u. idk why you’re just a guy she really shouldn’t” and near the beginning she joined the server but wasn’t in vc and was giving michael like a totem and a horse and jack was like “she’s trying to show off to you because she’s One Of Your People” and he just Kept making like backhanded comments about her being a 5sos fan and it reminded me that he HASNT FUCKING CHANGED!! and he had this annoying bit going where he was like im the Biggest 5sos fan and then would sing a song that wasn’t even 5sos. lord forbid hannah was a normal teenage girl who liked a band and as a woman has continued to like that band!!! how dare she be excited to meet a member of a band she loves!! like holy fuck jack manifold i am so serious kill yourself because you do not have any respect for women and are the number one perpetrator of villainizing them for having interests. constantly making jokes at women’s/teenage girls’ expense for being human beings who have interests in things and it was even worse bc michael was so earnest and was like thanking her for the horse and stuff and asking questions about minecraft and wasn’t really responding to the weird like condescending comments jack was making and i just. ugh. he gives me such a fucking ick i want him fucking dead.
omg helllooooo he was talkign HANNAH down like that 💀⁉️ when she’s a respected gamer and content creator and HIS OWN COWORKER oh wow i don’t wanna know what he thinks of young random nobody girls who have interests jesusssss

an informal review of "La Tulipe Noire" (1964)
this film named after but NOT based on the novel by Alexandre Dumas, best known for "The Three Musketeers" (to which a character in "The Black Tulip" gives a nod). the theme of "fuck the monarchy AND ALSO fuck cops" is just as strong in this movie, however, and it likewise takes a couple of interesting twists while following the titular vigilante, The Black Tulip.
Tumblr media
^^^ ET SON CHEVAL, VOLTAIRE 👏👏👏
The Black Tulip is the alter ego of local nobleman Guillaume de Saint Preux who robs from the rich in the name of the poor. and disrupts aristocrats in various vague ways but mostly robs them. he's famous in the province, beloved by the people and hated by the authorities.
Tumblr media
^^^ he plays tag with Voltaire ngl that's cute
during a robbery and subsequent encounter with Head Buffoon/Police Lieutenant Baron La Mouche, Guillaume receives a nasty wound to the face, marking him and thus preventing his appearance in society lest he be recognized. so he sends for his younger brother, Julien, who strongly resembles him and also happens to idolize him. Julien is a revolutionary and gladly agrees to double as Guillaume in public so he can continue his Black Tulip activities without suspicion.
Julien starts out the film as a pathetic little meow meow he's so cute and he's trying so hard ;3; five minutes into the gig, he falls off his horse and is nursed by Actual Goddess, Caro
Tumblr media
i literally spent half the movie physically holding my heart as it tried to beat out of my chest like a cartoon character im very in love with you, ma'am.
Caro and her father are also revolutionaries, and when Guillaume gets tired of the charade and tells Julien that he's always just been in it for the money and doesn't give a shit about the poor or the revolution, Julien snatches The Black Tulip role from him like a powdered wig and goes to get fencing lessons from Caro
Tumblr media Tumblr media
when she's a 10 AND she can kick your ass with style and grace 😍😍😍
obviously Julien falls in love with her (who wouldn't???) and lemme tell u i haven't cared about a straight couple getting together in a MINUTE but i love these two
the revolutionaries hatch a super sneaky plot to fuck with the monarchy that starts with Julien faking a love note to Prince William from the Marquise and then going to "defend her honor" (the Prince is ugly af she wasn't losing out) in order to assassinate the Prince. said assassination devolves into shenanigans (this is a comedy and they play the Actual Plot and humor together beautifully) i won't spoil the entire rest of the film but i wanted to share some of my personal highlights:
Tumblr media
^^^ Caro's dad impersonates the Prince
Tumblr media
^^^ Vintage Film Fight Slapstick hell yes
Tumblr media
^^^ both Caro and her dad get to do some genuinely badass swordplay (seriously, i love the role Caro has in this film. there's a brief bit in her intro scene where her father mentions he calls her by a masculine name because he wanted a boy, but afterward it is never made an issue of that she's a woman. she's overall equal to the rest of the heroes which really surprised me for a film made in the 60s. if anything they sexualize Guillaume so much more than any of the women in this film. he's running around with his tiddies out for 90% of the scenes he's in.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
^^^ ( @ Netease i fully understand the decision to have borrowed the main Black Tulip outfit but next time consider this alternative)
so yeah if you're into bare-chested men covered in their own blood this film ALSO is for u!!!
like i said in a previous post, if you enjoyed The Princess Bride this film is right up your alley in terms of mood and aesthetics. i can definitely tell where the filmmakers and possibly even the author drew inspiration from this movie. 10/10 would recommend and will certainly rewatch again.

Short Reflection: Summer 2022 Anime
Is it just me, or does summer tend to be the worst season for anime? Ever since I’ve started watching seasonally, summer has consistently been the weakest season every year, with the most high-profile disappointments and the least genuine successes. And that felt especially true this year, with show after how either failing to rise to its full potential or just never showing any potential in the first place. This has been a barren three months, and even after deciding to drop all the shows I really wasn’t feeling, I was left with far more bad than good. If not for a couple spectacular late-minute arrivals, I’d be confident calling this the worst ever season of anime in the modern era. It may well still be that! Either way, fall’s already looking exponentially better, so let’s give this cursed season the post-mortem it deserves and take a look at what gems are worth salvaging. I’ve already given my thoughts on the miserable second season of Devil is a Part-Timer (3/10), the ambitious but amateurish RWBY spinoff Ice Queendom (5/10), and the problematic delight that was Call of the Night (7.5/10). As for everything else... read on.
Shine Post: Unfinished/10
Tumblr media
So, I guess the folks at Cygames finally dispense with all the stupid, ill-fitting gimmicks and just make a straightforward idol anime, huh? Forget the unholy amalgamation of horse-racing pop stars that was Uma Musume, Shine Post is pure idol through and through, a story about a bunch of ordinary high school girls chasing their dreams and make the world hear their songs. On the one hand, I appreciate them for finally cutting out the middleman; watching Uma Musume break its own back to shoe-horn all those competing genres into the same space was painful, so deciding to just focus on the idol stuff that was always Cygames’ clearest inspiration was a sound decision. Unfortunately, once you strip away all that genre-blending weirdness that made Uma Musume so compelling in spite of itself, all you’re left with is, well, a basic-ass idol show with no real selling points beyond some admittedly stellar character animation and a unique-but-poorly-utilized gimmick of the manager being able to magically tell when someone’s lying. And then you’re forced to contend with the fact that Cygames writing is pretty uniformly terrible, overwrought melodrama (the second season of Uma Musume nonwithstanding), and all their female characters speak in the most ear-grating attempts at forced, quirky cuteness imaginable, and then you start hyperfocusing on the weirdly sexualized character designs with perfectly see-through t-shirts and prominent thigh gaps and... yeah, suffice to say, my interest in this one is pretty much dead. The last three episodes had to be delayed thanks to an untimely Covid outbreak at the studio, so we’ll see if the finale somehow manages to turn this thing around. But I’m not holding my breath.
Yurei Deco: 2.5/10
Tumblr media
Is there such a thing as Oscar-bait anime? I don’t know, but if there is, it probably looks an awful lot like Yurei Deco. It’s an anime original by the critically beloved studio Science Saru! It’s got a unique art style and a eclectic musical score! It’s telling a topical, relevant story about the modern-day surveillance state and how our lives are run by algorithms! It’s a very loose adaptation of a piece of classic Western literature filtered through insane anime goggles (Huckleberry Finn, in this case). It’s a show that practically screams its desire to be taken seriously, to have thinkpieces written about how Deep and Meaningful it is. But all that surface-level posturing can’t hide the fact that this is one of the stupidest goddamn anime I’ve watched all year. The story is limp and fails to connect, the animation isn’t appreciably better than other more generic but better produced shows, the literary references don’t amount to anything and honestly kind of make things worse with their incongruity, and whatever message it was trying to convey ends up so mangled by the end that it feels like you’re being made fun of for even trying to care in the first place. Bad anime are a dime a dozen, but few things are as aggravating to sit through as a bad anime that’s convinced of its own brilliance despite having all the intelligence of a lobotomized monkey.
Shine on! Bakamatsu Bad Boys: 3/10
Tumblr media
The easiest way to describe Bakamatsu Bad Boys would be “Akudama Drive in the Sengoku era of Japan.” The premise is similar, at least; seven colorful and color-coded criminals are brought together by an outside force to help change the world that forced them into criminality in the first place. Sadly, the second easiest way to describe Bakamatsu Bad Boys would be “Akudama Drive but infinitely worse.” There’s some good chemistry among the cast, but they’re almost always split off into designated pairs and never allowed to shine as a group dynamic. Plus the animation is weaker, the themes are sloppier, the character arcs are so much more pedestrian, and there’s a real lack of spark to the whole affair. This is a story about criminals taking over the wreckage of the Shinsengumi to help rebuild it into a better force for good, but very little of the juicy potential in that concept makes it on screen beyond some decent moralizing against outright torture. But what really kills this thing is the only female character being subjected to the absolute worst kind of predatory “romance” and gender essentialism. That’s where this show crosses the line from inoffensively boring to outright disgusting.
A Couple of Cuckoos (2nd Half): 3.5/10
Tumblr media
Is it just a rule that all harem anime must be cursed to go completely to shit by the end? I remember actually liking A Couple of Cuckoos back when it started out, but by the second half rolled around, it was just completely out of gas. Whatever story it had to begin with round to a halt and stayed there for twelve episodes of mind-numbing, meaningless faffing about, occasionally threatening to sputter back to life before promptly fizzling out all over again, finally belching up one last fart cloud of a non-ending before going completely silent. And I might not even be that upset about it; plenty of great anime have been forged off the backs of watching fun characters just hang out forever, and if there’s one thing I can say in Cuckoos’ favor, it does have some very entertaining character banter. But when you keep threatening to actually do something interesting? With cliffhanger after cliffhanger that are resolved near instantly and accomplish nothing except tricking you into thinking that finally, something, anything is about to happen? That, folks, is where my patience officially runs out. This show is a waste of my time, your time, and the time of every artist who worked on it. Skip it.
Phantom of the Idol: 6/10
Tumblr media
Some things don’t need a deep reason for why you like them. Sometimes, just being a good time is good enough. And this heartfelt screwball comedy about a lazy, cynical male idol teaming up with the ghost of a former idol sensation to help advance his career without putting in the work himself is fun aplenty. Sure, it’s no Ya Boi Kongming, and the lackluster CG during the actual idol performances isn’t gonna blow anyone away. But it’s got good jokes, lovably eccentric characters, a sharp sense of comedic timing, and just enough sincerity to balance out the high-tempo wackiness. This is popcorn entertainment at its most easily digestible; it won’t blow you away, but it’s a good time guaranteed if you’re just looking for something to kick back and enjoy without thinking about it too much.
Shadows House Season 2: 6/10
Tumblr media
Shadows House was one of last years’ most pleasant surprises, a slow-burn gothic shonen mystery that slipped neatly into the Promised Neverland-shaped hole left by that show’s misbegotten second season. Few anime settings in recent years have been as memorable as the titular house, and the first season left me eager to see Kate and Emilico continue their slowly blossoming revolution. Unfortunately, while season 2 keeps the twists coming hot and heavy with even more fascinating revelations about the systems governing this nightmare mansion, the narrative machinery feels on much less solid footing this time around. Answers come from awkward places and drawn-out exposition dumps, some reveals feel shortchanged, and there’s a frustrating sense that too many of these answers are coming not from the characters putting the pieces together of their own accord, but the narrative just dropping the answers in their laps. If Cloverworks decides to come back for a third season, I hope they’re able to tighten up the story’s structure and make its progression feel more natural. Because there are some damn exciting developments brought about by this season’s end, and I’d hate to see their potential squandered with writing that doesn’t earn their fallout.
Drifting Home: 7/10
Tumblr media
Well, this was a pleasant surprise! Studio Colorido has been making this exact kind of whimsical-yet-poignant kids’ adventure flick forever, but this is the first one I’d call an unqualified success (at least from what I’ve seen; I hear Penguin Highway is supposedly pretty great). A bunch of kids break in to explore the worn-out, set-for-demolition apartment building one of them used to live, only for that building to somehow become stranded out at sea with no clear way home. What follows is a far more thematically complex odyssey than one might expect from this movie’s lighthearted exterior. Drifting Home is a story about, well, drifting away from home, about the pain of leaving a home behind and the fear of never being able to replace the sense of love and security that home gave you. But it’s also about those abandoned homes themselves and the emotions tangled up within them, how they reflect the lives lived within them and carry those memories even after they’re left behind. It’s a shockingly heady film, and even at two hours it feels like it could’ve used a little more time just to give it all space to breathe. But it mostly all comes together thanks to the gorgeous animation (seriously, Colorido is really starting to give Ghibli a run for its hyper-romaticized naturalism money), creative high concepts, and instantly lovable cast of child protagonists. Check it out if you’ve got a couple hours to kill; this is one adventure you won’t regret getting swept up in.
The Girl from the Other Side: 7/10
Tumblr media
I remember a couple years back when Studio Wit put out a ten-minute short based on this bewitching fantasy manga. Even in such a bite-sized format, it was one of the most evocative pieces of animation I’d ever seen, and I knew I would never know peace until it got a full-length treatment. Well, that day has come at last, and surprising nobody, this movie adaptation of The Girl from the Other Side is absolutely mesmerizing. In a dreary fantasy world beset by curse and corruption, a lost human girl finds solace in the company of a cursed being still trying to hold onto his humanity. The exact details of the world and its greater context are left deliberately hazy; if you’re looking for meticulous fantasy worldbuilding, this isn’t the place to turn. What you get instead, though, is a gorgeous fantasia that makes you feel like you’re wandering the very woods where all those Grimm’s fairy tales took place in. The thick, ink-textured textured animation is like nothing I’ve ever seen before, equal parts terrifyingly supernatural, serenely archaic, and achingly human. And while the story may be as perfectly predictable as any other “jaded old dude takes care of a precocious little girl” plot, the vibes are so immaculate that it doesn’t really matter. If you’ve got an hour to kill, then you absolutely owe it to yourself to give this movie a watch. It’s a dream- or a nightmare- you won’t want to wake up from anytime soon.
Ao Ashi (2nd Half): 7.5/10
Tumblr media
I said in my quick thoughts on Ao Ashi’s first half that this show is exactly what I needed to fill the Haikyuu-shaped hole in my heart. While that remains true, the second half has revealed one significant caveat: Ao Ashi has significantly weaker antagonists than Haikyuu. The strength of Haikyuu’s cast was that every player felt like the protagonist of their own story, with understandable goals and dreams, so you couldn’t help but root for them even when they went up against Karasuno. Ao Ashi’s antagonists are aiming for that same kind of energy, but they’re much more one-note and cartoonishly mean. I’m sorry, I can’t take this Akatsu guy seriously as a bully when by all rights he should’ve been kicked off the team for his shitty behavior by now. It’s far from enough to kill the show, thankfully, and the arrival of a shockingly great romantic subplot is more than enough to keep Ao Ashi as one of this year’s biggest delights. And now that the end of Haikyuu’s anime has been announced, I hope Production IG sticks with this one for the long haul as well. With a little stronger production, this could easily become the next sports anime juggernaut.
Made in Abyss Season 2: 8.5/10
Tumblr media
You know, it’s funny. I spend most of the first half of Made in Abyss’ second season complaining about how it wasn’t as good as the rest of the series. The Golden City is visually boring and we spend way too much time in it! It’s overly reliant on shock value for the sake of shock value that doesn’t add anything to the overall message! The animation is so much more limited and reliant on ugly CGI (gee I wonder if making this in between seasons of a certain garbage isekai adaptation took a toll on the production)! But then the turning point hit halfway through the season, and it was like nothing had changed at all. The back half of Golden City of the Scorching Sun is as heartbreaking, horrifying, and unspeakably beautiful as Made in Abyss has ever been, finally tying the sixth layer’s meandering threads together into a single awe-inspiring tapestry of loss, vengeance, and what it means to find value in a world that doesn’t offer it easily. By the time it was all over, I barely remembered the awkward, subpar footing it had all started on. Made in Abyss is not an easy show to process, and it’s probably only going to get more and more difficult to stomach as we plunge into the Abyss’ deepest recesses. But while season 2 may be the weakest outing overall, it’s yet further proof why this twisted nightmare of a journey is one of the greatest fantasy anime of all time.
Lycoris Recoil: 8.5/10
Tumblr media
You know what I love? When an anime comes out of nowhere and absolutely takes the world by storm. Lycoris Recoil wasn’t really on my radar before the season started, and what few trailers I watched didn’t do much to sell me on its weird mishmash of cute girls doing hardcore assassin work. Well, just slap a big fat egg on my face, because this bonkers original project is one of the most exciting things you or I or anyone else is likely to watch all year. Yes, it’s a little iffy that our protagonists are essentially government-sanctioned child sleeper agents tasked with keeping the peace by murdering anyone who even threatens to disturb it. And while the show does its best to wring some interesting thematic ideas from that concept- authoritarian security vs anarchic freedom, the ethics of killing for government- it’s far from a perfect treatise on the subject. You know what it does do perfectly, though? Basically everything else. Top-tier action, inspired direction and cinematography, consistently spectacular animation for fight scenes and comedy bits alike, a roller-coaster plot that perfectly balances hilarious slice-of-life shenanigans with the intensity of shootouts and car chases, actual canon gay representation (though not in the way you might expect), and two of the most pitch-perfect protagonists to ever share a screen. Seriously, Chisato and Takina own my entire soul and I apologize for nothing. Lycoris Recoil may not be a philosophical masterpiece, but it’s popcorn entertainment at its absolute finest, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Cyberpunk Edgerunners: 9/10
Tumblr media
Sound the alarm, folks: Trigger’s back on track to save anime again! I knew Cyberpunk Edgerunners was gonna be a great time from the moment its first trailer dropped: marrying Hiroyuki Imaishi’s iconic directing style with the neon-soaked atmosphere of the cyberpunk genre was a match so perfect you gotta wonder how we’re only just now getting around to it. What I didn’t expect, though, was just how goddamn great the story ended up being. Imaishi’s always relied on the back of his high-octane visual style, and the thematic ideas that style alone conveys, to cover for the actual writing being kind of a hot mess. But Edgerunners gives him a genuinely great script to work with for the first time, and the results are magical. This tale of an impoverished teenager lashing out against the hypercapitalist system he lives under and finding companionship among fellow societal rejects may not break much new ground for the cyberpunk genre, but it delivers the single most exhilarating, heartbreaking, and breathtaking version of that story I’ve ever seen. And Imaishi’s style doesn’t just make that story pop, it infuses even the most played-out plot points with astonishing new life. This may well be his best work as a director, and I do not say that lightly. Cyberpunk Edgerunners is easily Netflix’s best anime since Devilman Crybaby, and I consider it a must-watch for anyone who can handle the intensity of its bloody action. Never before has something so perfectly embodied its genre while simultaneously feeling like nothing else that genre has ever produced.

Dark Prince Luke Thoughts™:
Tumblr media
(Image Source)
Tagging: @stonegoldsxcrxt, @myevilmouse, @dexthtoyounglings, @laserbrains, @ancient-stardust, @hansonveggieclub
In my version of the popular AU, Luke is the Crown Prince of the Galactic Empire. The galaxy knows him as the son of Sheev Palpatine and Padmé Amidala (yuck!); this narrative was perpetuated by COMPNOR to garner wider support from those who idolized the late senator. The story goes that Padmé was murdered by the jedi because they were against her secret affair with the chancellor, but Darth Vader was able to save their child at the last minute.
Luke was raised at Varykino by the Naberrie family in accordance with Naboo tradition. They were his only true source of love during his childhood, and they helped him to be in touch with his culture. He grew up under the watchful eyes of his two Noghri bodyguards, Ahkelar and Arakhmil; despite their gruff exteriors, they are very caring. When he isn't on Naboo, he is often at the side of Darth Vader, his mentor and protector. Vader is stern and cold by nature, but he refrains from actually harming Luke. Luke both respects and fears Vader, viewing him as more of a father figure than Palpatine could ever be.
Palpatine's reasoning behind Luke being the Crown Prince is so he can be the poster boy for the Empire, as well as to torture Vader with his presence. Vader's son--the son he thought he lost--is alive, and Palpatine stole him. However, he is secretly training Luke to eventually overthrow the Emperor; as much as Luke hates the man he thinks is his father, he isn't elated about eventually taking his place. Palpatine's ultimate goal is to have Luke 'succeed' him while he would still be pulling the strings behind the scenes, but Vader wants him dead.
Vader was entrusted to train Luke in the ways of dark side, but not in the ways of the Sith so he wouldn't be a threat to Palpatine. This was followed to a certain point; while Vader didn't train Luke in the ways of the Sith, he also didn't exclusively train Luke in the ways of the dark side. Vader doesn't want Luke to be truly evil because he knows it would break Padmé's heart--he did it once, and he never wants to do it again. Ultimately, Luke doesn't see the force as being separated into the dark and the light, he just sees it as the force because that is what he was taught. Luke has multiple lightsabers that he made and collected--yellow, orange, pink, purple--but no red lightsabers, as he uses the dark side but isn't truly a darksider.

For the Luke Skywalker headcanons--um...he loves to ride speeder bikes like a lunatic...you would hang on behind him for dear life. He loves to cook but he's not very good at it... Except maybe one recipe he totally rocks. And he is open to any and all wacky sexual fantasies so bring 'em on, you'll never know unless you try... 😈
As a teenager back on Tatooine, he used to practice on Uncle Owen's old speeder bike in his spare time, which ultimately gave him a few injuries and Corellian-level maneuverability. Luke can also pull off some insane tricks with those force-heightened reflexes of his. He likes to take you on joyrides across whatever planet you're currently on, which occasionally involves riding off the edge of cliffs. It honestly scares the shit out of you, but you can never get mad at him because he always has total control and nothing bad ever ends up happening (even though it doesn't always feel that way).
Luke is a surprisingly domestic guy and is 10/10 husband material. Having grown up on a farm where every life skill is a requirement for survival, he knows how to cook, clean, sew and knit, repair things, etc. He may not always be the best at everything, but he never complains about doing chores and you can always count on him to get them done. Over the years, he's discovered that having a peaceful settled life is a luxury in this galaxy, so he never takes the home you've built together for granted. When it comes to cooking, he's very enthusiastic about experimenting with new recipes from all over the galaxy. Sometimes he gets a little too enthusiastic and accidentally sets the kitchen on fire. However, he does makes an effort to figure out what your favorite dishes are and get really, really good at making them.
For the last part... we already know he's a very curious and creative person--and he's a total simp--so he's willing to do literally anything to make you happy. I like to think the force would be involved somehow. And maybe his x-wing. Don't ask.

My #1 post of 2022
to expand on the artistic tendencies you detailed a while back: something in which Reader discovers Luke's sketchbook tucked in amongst his gear or something and he feels some way about it. ♥️
You and Luke have a lot of trust in your relationship. However, he's still inclined to keep some things to himself, and you respect his privacy.
But you never expected him to be an artist.
For context, you didn't go snooping in his stuff--going through someone's sketchbook without their permission is a serious crime--you found his sketchbook purely by accident. Luke had left the mess hall in a hurry to make it to a rebel briefing, leaving a small, jerba leather-bound book on the bench next to you. Assuming it was some kind of journal where he kept tabs on important information regarding all things jedi, you slipped it in among your gear for safekeeping until his meeting wrapped up.
The sea of orange flightsuit-clad pilots signaled to you the meeting ended, so you rushed into the crowd to find Luke. It didn't take you long to spot the golden blonde hair of your lover as he made his way toward you.
"I'm glad I caught you, Y/N!" Luke cheered, drawing you in for one of his signature bear hugs.
"I'm glad, too! I have something for you." You reached into your jacket and a look of relief crossed his face as you pulled out the little book. The leather binding the book was worn and slightly faded and some of the pages had prominent wrinkles, but you could tell he treated it with great care.
"My sketchbook! I can't believe I left that behind, thank you for finding it!"
"Sketchbook?"
"Aunt Beru got it for me after Uncle Owen scolded me for doodling on the dining room table. It's one of the few things I've kept from Tatooine since I left." He laughed softly, looking at the sketchbook with fondness that made your heart ache.
"I didn't realize you were an artist... I don't mean that as an insult! I just didn't look inside."
"Would you like to?" You nodded, and he flipped open the sketchbook.
Your jaw dropped--he was incredible! Even at a young age, he demonstrated great talent by capturing the minute details of his T-16 starfighter. Portraits of who you assumed to be his family and friends from Tatooine filled the early pages of the sketchbook, as well as rough sketches of the planet's barren landscape. The further you got in the sketchbook, the more drawings you saw of familiar faces like Leia, Han, Chewie, and the droids. It was fascinating watching his art style morph over time as his skills increased, but what remained constant throughout was the love he poured into everything. Soon enough, you reached a part of the book where your likeness adorned almost all the pages. Phrases like "my love" and "the light of my galaxy" accompanied the sketches of your face.
You looked towards Luke, who scratched the back of his neck nervously. "Luke... this is amazing! You're really talented!"
"You really think so?"
Right as you were about to reply, you were cut off by Wedge Antilles informing Luke that Rogue Squadron was about to take off.
"I guess it's time for me to go, Y/N," he said, placing the sketchbook back into your hands. "Can you hold on to this for me?"
You nodded and kissed him one last time before he made his way toward his x-wing. Even after watching him fly away to fight in some valiant battle in the far reaches of space, you still couldn't fathom what you did to deserve Luke Skywalker trusting you with such an intimate piece of him. You held the sketchbook to your chest and smiled, knowing that you were connected to him even if you were galaxies apart.

Some ideas for your monster au!
Iroha - Cuckoo Bird Hybrid
Yachiyo - La Llorona (but significantly less murdery)
Tsuruno - Descendant of Nian. Tries to right her ancestor’s wrongs.
Felicia - Chort
Sana - Metal Automaton
Momoko - Yeah, I don’t know.
Rena - Shapeshifter. Took the form of an old idol for confidence.
Kaede - Kodama
Madoka - Normal Human or Angel
Homura - No clue.
Sayaka - Mermaid
Kyoko - Centaur
Mami - Slyph
Nagisa - Bakeneko, but instead of a cat, she’s a mouse. A Bakenezumi.
hi thank you for the ideas!! im sorry it took me so long to answer! ive been playing splatoon with a friend of mine
iroha - i already have a thing for her! ( necromancer ) but i love cuckoo bird iroha very much! if i didn’t already have,, two other aus with that,, i probably would have gone with that!
yachiyo - i love the myth of La Llorona! but i dont think i want to use myths i dont know much about or ones that are not part of my culture, i dont want to mess them up and i am! very bad a research!
felicia and tsuruno - same thing with yachiyo
sana- i did have an idea of her and ai being funny sheep radiowave people things i dont know.. but the idea of her being a metal automation is way cooler!
momoko - i was originally thinking something similar to what she is/does in vampnagi’s event or something similar to her and mitama’s event? or maybe a mix of both of some kind
rena - shapeshifter rena my beloved :]
kaede - same thing with yachiyo,,! but having looked them up kodamas are very cute
madoka and homura - originally i had the idea of the them being an angel and a demon! but normal human madoka is interesting
sayaka - fish :] (i did have a brief thought of sayaka being a werewolf though..)
kyoko - horse :] my original thought with kyoko was actually a sort of headless horseman though! her horse could be named ophelia :]
mami and nagisa - same thing with yachiyo again,, ive never heard of a sylph before! but they look very cool! and i did already have an idea for the both of them, with mami being a normal human and nagisa being a ghost haunting an old doll mami found at an antique shop

hello :) 🍈 🍒 for the ask meme
omg a second melon a chance to talk about blorbo's horse PERFECT THANK YOU FOR THE ASK!!
🍈 Who’s your blorbo and what are some of your favorite headcanons/ideas about them that repeatedly show up in your fics? Free pass to rant about blorbo opinions.
since i went on about ichiro in the other one i feel obligated to heap some love on samatoki here because while i call ichiro beloved technically i love them both equally (truthful!)
i think a lot of my samatoki headcanons are just canon lol (yakuza with a heart of gold who helps little old ladies cross the street, literally) but i definitely have Opinions like he is a cat guy he is a guy in need of a cat
he is also a guy in need of a dom but well i won't get too into that here lol
one thing is i think he is so big on loyalty that it is often to his detriment, like anything he perceives as the slightest betrayal could set him off. anger management issues central over here. doesn't trust easily, needs to learn to rely on others more
he comes across to me as the sort of guy who demands complete control over his surroundings and his people but really needs to be allowed to let go of that control once in a while (in a safe environment) and that makes him such a fascinating character to write imo
also he's flat as hell there's no ass there
🍒 What’s your favorite character dynamic to write? (Can be romantic or platonic, specific or general!)
FOUND FAMILY but also friends to enemies to lovers!
it's about the blind devotion that turns into loathing and disillusionment, that then turns into a slow, gradual mending of what was broken, then an understanding and acceptance that things won't ever be the same again (and that's okay)
it's about one of them idolizing the other, worshiping them as a hero who could do no wrong, then being dropped and completely shattering and having to pick up all the pieces alone
it's about being mended but changed (it's about kintsugi)
it's about still loving someone, or inevitably coming to love them again, even if they aren't the person you built them up to be in your head. it's about maybe loving them even more than before, because the flawed human that they are is so much better than the untouchable god you made them out to be
(and yes it's about ichisama lmao)

The parables of the various animals are actually people.
In Matthew 21:21-5, Jesus describes the colt as a kosher
that has not sinned.
Judah in Genesis 49:9 is said to be a lion's cub, so Judas is compared to a lion to symbolize a heavenly person with power, and the people in Acts 20:29-36 are compared to sheep and the false shepherds are compared to this.
The eagle is a reference to the eagle in Isaiah 46:11, which is a metaphor for a person who will come out of the east to fulfill the deception of God.
The roe deer and the deer in Song of Songs 2:7-8, which are similar animals, are likened to the longing of a beloved woman for her lover. Text Genesis 49:9 Judah was a lion's cub, and all my son, thou hast taken funny things, and hast gone up, but all his prostrations are like a lion's, and like a lioness's: who can tell when he seeth him, Amen.
The ass
Ezekiel 23:20-22
For thou hast committed adultery with a lewd executive, whose lower parts are like an ass, and whose heart is like a horse: for thou hast committed adultery in thy youth, to remember that thy breasts and thy mammaries were fondled by the Egyptians: therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Oholibbayah, I will stir up those whom thou hast hated in thy adultery, and will cause them to come and smite thee from all sides.
And Ishagar was a stout mole that boiled in the midst of the sheep's pen.
Genesis 49:14 Ishmael was a sheep.
The spiritual walk of idolatry in Jerusalem and Samaria is likened to the lower body of a lewd ass. Just as a donkey that travels through the desert does not like to get up and go in the dry season unless it is fed once, so the laziness and foolishness of Isaac was compared to a donkey that hesitates. Therefore Jacob prophesied that Issachar would be a burden-bearer and a servant under oppression.
' 16:12 And he shall be as a wild ass among men: and his hand shall smite a stranger, and every man's hand shall smite him: and he shall dwell in the east of all his brethren.
.8:8 And Israel shall be as a wild ass among men; and every hand shall smite him that knoweth not; and he shall dwell in the east of all his brethren.
.8:8 For Israel is already swallowed up, and is now among the nations as a vessel that rejoiceth not
They are a vessel that rejoiceth not in the midst of the nations: they are gone to Assyria, like an ass, when they are alone: and Ephraim hath obtained lovers for a price.
8:3 Because Israel hates good (cham) and follows evil (mark)
8:3 Because Israel hates good (cham) and follows evil (mark), she has become pitiful as a wild ass alone, and has gone to Assyria and Ephraim to serve idols, so that she will rebel against God and commit adultery.
2:23 How can you say, I have not defiled myself, I have not walked after Baal
Behold thy ways in the valley, and thou shalt know what thou hast done: thou art as a young man of swiftness of foot running giddily in the way, and as a wild ass in the wilderness panting because his lust is aroused: who shall stop it in the time of his lust?
and they that seek it shall find it without labor, and shall meet it in its months.
The word that is written is that Isra'el was quick to sin and to go to Dan, lest he should go to the gods of idols. Insanity in pagan gods is likened to a wild ass that cannot be restrained because it is inflamed with lust. The mare symbolizes lust and lewdness, and is a metaphor for various circumstances and conditions.
Matthew 21:1 And as they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, the mount of Olives.
And when they were come nigh unto Bethphage on the mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples, and said unto them, Go ye into the village which is opposite unto you, and ye shall find a colt tied, and a colt's colt with him: loose him, and bring him unto me: and if any man say unto him any thing, say unto him, The Lord will write: and he shall be sent forth immediately: for this was to fulfill that which was spoken by the prophet, saying, Say unto the daughter of

"shes like sade!" i'm like sade. i'm not even like sade because i'm like anida baker. i am also like k@te bush. they do not know what it is, what it is.
they're like horse girl whisper singers. and when they have voices, they're delusional opera singers. and when they're quirky rappers, they're delusional lesbians. if you think i'm arrogant: cleo s0l is not here. al3x isley is not here. people actually inspired by sade are not here. delusional clones are here. candle magic witchcraft hoes are here.

Enstars and also Saint Seiya?
I wrote this once before. I accidentally deleted it all. Good for me
Enstars
❤ Favorite Male: Tsukinaga Leo my little weird girl. I know that we're the reason why you are the way you are but why are you the way that you are you silly little music man with the world in his heart and a void in his head. Compose a song for yourself for once and don't ever share if with anyone
❤ Favorite Female: Narukami Arashi my beloved. She's a queen please love her also theres only like one or maybe two other girls in this series who else was i supposed to pick? Anzu? Hitsugi???
❤ Favorite Pairing: I have a soft spot for Izumi/Leo both platonically and romantically. I want what these two idiots have. I also like Chiaki/Kanata because the whole "I accidentally adopted two kids with my not-wife who is also definitely not a diety and we're so domestic to the point that the man who murdered my not-wife has told me to take care of him so I guess we're a family now" dynamic is beautiful
❤ Least Favorite Character: Not really character but I really don't like ES. Stories of a nationwide agency that is at the top of its field in under a year after formation and it being portrayed as good in universe is just. No. So much hidden propaganda to be uncovered, I don't like that. Can't we just go back to being a silly school idol game?
❤ who’s most like me: I dunno man, who else is a lazy, good for nothing vampire who has trouble making friends but holds way too tightly onto the ones they make because they're terrified of being alone and has had a history of being abandoned in their time of greatest need and also kinda petty? I can definitely see myself as a Sengoku kind of person. Something about him doing his best to be true to his odd passions while acting as a mediator for others is pretty accurate
❤ most attractive: Aesthetically, Sena and Narukami are like so cool I can understand why they're canonically models.
❤ three more characters that I like: Kagehira Mika, Shinkai Kanata, and Sakuma Ritsu I guess

Saint Seiya
❤ Favorite Male: To the surprise of no one, Hippocampus Baian. Please don't ask my why, my silly brain went "Haha underwater horse man funny. I like"
❤ Favorite Female: Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh Yuzuriha? Not many cool girls in StS either
❤ Favorite Pairing: I'm a sucker for everyone/good fucking therapy but we can't always have what we want so I guess Baian/Io will have to do
❤ Least Favorite Character: I don't like Sage :( he makes me angy
❤ who’s most like me: idk actually, i'd like to say Shun bc im baby and can't fight for shit but who knows
❤ most attractive: .... uh man my attractiveness scale does not hold many characters and none of the sts folks are on it. Controversial opinion tho - Caca is cute
❤ three more characters that I like: Hades Alone, Julian Solo, Aries Shion

an shiraishi for both ask games!
Christ thank you so much
So for the first one
Blorbo: An Shiraishi my beloved <3 ever since I started project Sekai she's been my favorite
Scrunckly: Emu! She's always so happy and energetic and cute and kind and just 🎉❤️🎉 like I would want her as a best friend and I'd want to spoil her and smother her in hugs
Scrimblo blimbo: Honami! I actually like Honami (and most of the prsk cast) and there's a lack of content and focus for her. Like, she's so ridiculously nice, and sweet and caring. Even after everything that happened to her in middle school
Gulpo shitto: oof. Going with Taiga. He's actually super cool and I love that he's like an uncle to An and a mentor to Kohane. Also is it just me or is there a little tension with him and Ken?
poor little meow meow: Kanade!!! Omg she is pathetic in a nice way. She literally gets no sleep and works so freaking hard and I feel like the fandom sleeps on her while focusing on Mizuki, Ena, and Mafuyu a lot (not to they aren't amazing I just want people to love Kanade more)
horse plinko: Akito. I think it would be fun to annoy him
eeby deeby: Rui. I want to see what happens
okay and now for the second one:
An Shiraishi
Sexuality headcanon: lesbian. I can't reaysee her as anything else
Gender headcanon: girl. Cis or trans who knows. She's just very tomboyish.
A ship I have with said character: AnHane!!! I love them so much top ship. Kohane has so much respect for An and is doing her best so she can be as good as she is. An's doing her best to be a good partner having never done this before. And when Kohane gets better and is getting lessons from Taiga An worries she won't be good enough soon. They both want to be the absolute best for each other and I think that's beautiful ❤️ also in canon An said she's going on a date with Kohane in her 3 star from the time to hang out event
BROTP I have with said character: An and Haruka. They're so great. When Haruka stops being an idol she immediately tells An and when she decides to start back up again the first person she tells is An. They're such good friends and colorful pallette shows that. I love their friend rivalry. I headcanon they do morning runs/jogs together
NOTP with said character: AkiAn. I ever much do not like it there's like no romantic subtext for me at all. Also I see An as a lesbian. I just don't like it, gives me the ick. However if you ship it that's fine
Random headcanon I have of said character: likes Shonen anime. I feel like she wouldn't be on electronics a lot but she totally watches Shonen anime, maybe even with her dad. She also knows her street like the back of her hand and is good in gym and biology
Overall opinion of the character: favorite project sekai character deserves all the love and the fandom should stop using her as a background character for Akito and Toya
And we're done, thank you so much for the ask <33

vity and tbz?!
hi bibi <3 (it got long so. it goes under the cut)
crabs
first bias: serim (& jungmo)
current bias: woobin / wonjin / jungmo / serim
album ranking: season 2 (hideout: the new day we step into) > liberty: in our cosmos = new wave > season 3 (hideout: be our voice) = season 1 (hideout: remember who we are) > the awakening: written in the stars (> vivid > boogie woogie)
how i got into them: i was interested when i heard they were going to debut bc. it's always exciting to see new groups debuting i think (nd partially because of the pdx/x1 guys but like not Really bc . i didnt rlly remember that i liked them during pdx AND i didnt like mini/hyeongjun when x1 was. a thing) + brina was posting abt them when the teaser pics were coming out nd all that so they were on the dash for me to see y'know. then batr came out and i hated it so i thought that's where my adventure w the cavities was done but after a while i finally listened to the rest of the album AND STAY WAS THE BEST SONG IVE EVER HEARD............i listened to Only her on loop for like DAYS . n here we are now
which member would be my best friend: id pester mini until he agrees to be friends w me . also wanji !! best friend energy off the charts
something i associate with them: crabs. cavities. brina & eri. the phrase brand deals bc of how many times ive said that mini deserves all the brand deals in the world. bubblegum w hyeongjun. orangeade & sewoon songs with wanji. pitbull (dont ask). randall the lizard thing w jungmo (this is brina's fault blame her). meteors, honestly.
bring the boyz back
first bias: haknyeon (& hyunjun)
current bias: ?????? (chanhee/sunwoo/hyunjae)
album ranking: reveal = breaking dawn > the start = chase > maverick => the sphere = dreamlike > the first = thrill-ing > the only > tattoo = be aware > bloom bloom (= last man standing = all about you > christmassy! => drink it > white) + still haven't heard the she's the boss album oops..... as u can see. very different from my title track ranking
how i got into them: see it's a long, long, long story........ was really excited when they were rumoured to have their little snack shop show/be debuting because i liked hak from broduce. i made another twt account just specifically for the to-be-tbz stanning purposes. saw hwall fantakens n i was like Oh Whos that. nd then suddenly i stopped going on that account n kinda forgot? abt them? i would listen to every release they'd put out but without much more bc as much as i LOVED boy. song of the century. i absolutely hated giddy up so i was like well too bad :/ rip my interest in them :/ and i think i disliked right here at first as well (i love her now. shes my beloved.) but i was absolutely INSANE about no air shes the best song ever i've been in love with her from the first second i heard her. so i ended up watching the showcase stage n someone caught my eye (i ended up finding out it was hak which was rlly funny it was a . destiny kinda moment). i think it was around that time that i saw their right here era weekly idol appearance. got a small crush on sunwoo. but then nothing much more happened rlly? i still kept watching their mvs whenever they'd release one and i Was a p big fan of their music!! and . i must have seen some more content at Some point before rtk because i remember already having a better idea of who each of them were before rtk started but. it was rlly during rtk that i rlly got Into them . but like . Rlly into them like . the amount of vlives i watched in the span of a few months (while rtk was airing, even though i wasn't watching the actual show, only the performances, and for a while after it ended im p sure)......yeah
