#kaguya sama spoilers #iino & osaragi #kaguya sama manga #iino x osaragi #the more i make these the more unhinged the tags get lol #on my earlier reads i thought osaragi's rant was kinda like when shinomiya insults shirogane in order to persuade fujiwara away from him #but now i also think it's similar to when iino tells shirogane all the reasons she shouldn't like ishigami only to cry at the end #what do jolene the stone bowl arc and nerdy girl's hate me have in common #they were all supposed to be straight but it doesn't take much to think that they're very much not #seriously the lyrics of hate me are literally about the singer taking the boy that her friend loves #but she spends most of the song screeching to her friend as if burning bridges and knowing her friend hates her for sure is the actual poin #it's the same idea from torn-up road where they do something self-destructive to know for certain that it will be unrequited #hate me is a banger go listen to it! but anyway #the scorpion story fits not only bc of the 'nature' part but bc sadoeuphemist writes it as a loop #the story usually plays out badly but the loop continues anyway which works for knowing the bad ending but being unable to give up #against her better judgement #coincidentally othello is iino's character song although it's about the board game not the shakespeare play #but there's an essay on othello that talks about mimetic desire and that sums up what i was thinking in an older post really well #also fyi torn-up road and othello are a male narrator talking about a man just to clear that up #web weaving

#kaguya sama manga #web weave #iino & osaragi #iino x osaragi #is it jealous in the way of wanting what they have or wanting what they give to someone else? #that’s the question #in this post I’m thinking of her as less emotionally aware than the other posts #can’t tell which way is more interesting but I’ll never get around to deciding by writing it so #*shrug* #also some of this makes more sense with context from the sources please look into them #fyi the quotes have a lot of male speakers talking about another man

Osaragi only realized that after she felt indirectly betrayed when Iino left Ishigami to his own devices #and/or Osaragi was drawn to him bc she liked the same qualities in Iino first but wasnt conscious of it #still i cant justify why she resents iino even if that kind of realization hits her like a brick #but at least i can sorta understand #this web weave is very pushpins strings and a corkboard messy but it matches my theory lol #it's 15% original text 85% headcanon if im being generous #it's 100% a fluke but the 'they' and 'someone' in Osaragi's line instead of 'he' and 'boy' !! #and GOD just look Osaragi's smile towards both of them is so similar it's probably just copypasted but it's there

U know what I’m surprised that I still can’t find even one (1) Iino x Osaragi fanfic when there’s at least 15 ppl out there who are on the same page abt them and it’s been almost 2 years

I guess the official doujin counts but meh

It’s the weird spot where I care enough to look for one but not enough to overcome my nerves over writing one oops

[ivorypool]

“yuri! iinoGami” very fair liquidstar but I started thinking doesn’t that already exist as Osaragi x Iino

Then big brain moment. . what if they’re yaoi instead

I mean it’s kind of the same story as fox and the hound

And tbh yeah the bi triangle isn’t choosing between a boy or a girl it’s between your sympathetic rival making you rethink your cause or your second in command working against you “for your own good”

The bi nb experience: yuri with a masc and yaoi with a femme

[crashed-keys]

hee hoo kaguya sama spoilers for late manga. like up to the 190s (emer do not read)

thinking abt aro characters very hard today (thanks agatha wellbelove) and thinking abt how some of the kaguya sama chapters are called "miko iino cannot love, part x" right. yes i know miko is supposed to be in love with ishigami and this is abt how osaragi doesnt want her to realize her feelings for him or whatever. but consider that "miko iino cannot love" is quite literally supposed to be read as what it sounds like and bam another aro(spec...? idk where id go with this tee bee aitch) bi character to add to the list
