#like its different from the married/divorced energy between kashiwagi and kazama yk what i mean

[todayisafridaynight]

I saw the "#is there yaoi in the arakawa family" tag basically right as it popped up in the notes and was also left completely dead on the pavement, but honestly? As someone who is wholly and irrevocably AraSawa-pilled (whether said pill is red or blue in color is up to interpretation...), it's objectively SO much funnier if they're just Like That. I love your comics on the topic!

There's also some element of this post I saw earlier I think, divorced from the sexual context since it's not really relevant to what I want to talk about (you'll just have to bear with me there I guess lol, can't help what the post says). It's also still pretty melodramatic applied to them (even for me) when it chiefly is just. Hilarious. But what I'm trying to say is that, taking a more serious approach, "unresolved potential" is such a compelling and central recurring beat here, so what's one more instance?

I guess that post kind of presupposes that there is or could be yaoi, but I think it's kind of like. The concept of "yuri of absence." But with dads. Like that's along the lines of the emotion things like the pair of armchairs on the second floor of Jo's office evokes in me. Honestly I think this particular ask is probably one of the least intelligible I've sent and I'll probably regret it. But. It's. They're married. But they're not. But They're Married. BUT THEY'RE NOT. But th

after meeting with The Arakawa Family Council the verdict i bring to everyone today on Is There Yaoi In The Arakawa Family is:

Well,

#fave #snap chats #OK BUT NO I FEEL LIKE I AGREE TOTALLY #like it really is... indescribable.... like what's going on here... because it's definitely something..... but not THAT but???? #yeah they're married but i don't think they know that. #like its different from the married/divorced energy between kashiwagi and kazama yk what i mean #it's like. when hummingbirds co-evolve with flowers right. #like they just ACCIDENTALLY co-exist perfectly with each other after being around each other so long #like it infinitely is better if its just limbo situation where its like. What Do We Even Label This As. Should We. Do We. #cause again it's infinitely funnier if this all happens and they arent the slightest bit aware #desperately need a montage of arakawa and jo just being in really domestic situations together #but like. with the most This Isn't Anything Serious energy right #like ichi running into the office and jo and arakawa are just having a cute lil candlelit dinner #and ichi just Oh Is This Like... A Thing... but neither of them blink arakawa just wanna know what ichi wants like :)? #thank you for enjoying my comics on the idea though it's really fun walking the line between Being Serious and just Being Silly #i need to make more... but im so busy.... ill just rotate them in my head for now #ill just rb my old faves on the idea lmao #like its funny to toe being For Real bout it if not so i can make more silly slice of life manga parodies #i think itd just be funny if jo experiences human emotion for the first time and its in the most awkward situation imaginable #yk. the drama of it all its so goofy #ohhh but i dont wanna write my silly essay about them.. not now anyway... i do enjoy them immensely tho. #in case that wasn't evident. i'll ramble about them in another post of mine im sure :) #but yes thank you for your input i was hoping you'd come around LMAO i needed that peer review #and im glad- as per usual- we came to the same conclusion. We Don't Know. #edit: in review as it turns out its not old man yaoi its old man yuri. thats my final answer im locking it in
