𝕮𝖔𝖓𝖙𝖊𝖓𝖙: Katsuki and Keiko spend their first Father’s Day together

𝕲𝖊𝖓𝖗𝖊: tooth-rotting fluff

𝕬/𝕹: this is like 2 days late but oh well lol

The sun filtered through your blinds, casting you and your husband in an ethereal glow. You stirred at the beeping of your alarm, before grinning as you realise the day. It was you and your husband’s first ever Father’s Day, so you had the day jam-packed with activities.

Katsuki grunted in his sleep as you soothed him by playing with the ashy blonde dandelion fluff that is his hair. Sleepy eyes cracked open slightly before smiling at you.

“Mph, g’morning beautiful,” he yawned as he pulled you closer, nestling his head against your chest. Gentle hands threaded through his hair.

“Good morning handsome, how did you sleep?” You asked him, basking in his sleepy nature.

“Eh, it wasn’t horrible. God, those physio sessions better start working soon because my back is killing me,” he grunted, fighting sleep.

“Why don’t you go back to sleep, baby? Get some more rest and let me and Keiko take care of you today?” You smiled at him. Katsuki cracked an eye open before smirking slyly.

“What, you and the brat gonna pamper me today? Bring it on!” He let out a yawn as you continued to play with his hair.

“Fucking hell baby, your hands are magic,” he muttered tiredly. He delved deeper into the duvet and you tucked him in, patting his back until he delved back into blissful slumber.

Today was gonna be the best day for him, you were gonna make sure of it.

You softly padded into your baby son’s nursery, careful to miss standing on his arrangement of toys. He slept peacefully in his adorable cot, no thoughts or worries as he snoozed away. Upon hearing your footprints, his breath-taking (E/C) eyes fluttered open as he showed you a gummy smile. Chubby feet supported his weight as he bounced up and down in his crib, desperate for some morning cuddles.

“Good morning my handsome boy! Look at you, already to go!” You cooed as you picked him up, blowing raspberries into his chubby cheeks, earning a happy giggle. You pretended to be grossed out by him and held him at arms length, causing more giggles to be let out.

“Well, we can’t make daddy breakfast in bed when you stink! Come on, mister. Time to clean up!”

After cleaning up your stinky baby, you dressed him up in a tiny dynamight costume, leaving the eye mask until later. You couldn’t stop cooing at your son’s cuteness and saved a variety of photos to send to Mina.

You heaved Keiko to your waist as you began cooking Katsuki’s breakfast; grilled salmon, a bowl of miso soup alongside some rice and a cup of strong Colombian coffee. Keiko burbled as you cooked, trying to stir the soup but splashing some on you.

“You’re a messy pup today, son! This breakfast is for daddy, it’s not for me to wear!” You giggled as you tickled your son, creating a symphony of happy laughter.

Upon the cooking being completed, you arranged everything super neatly on the table before placing the card Keiko made him in playgroup in a bag, as well as his gift.

“Why don’t we go wake your daddy up, hmm Keiko? Let’s show him the breakfast you made him,” you asked, heart pounding in excitement when your son held your hand. His face erupted into beams of pure light at the mention of his father’s name, babbling happily and bouncing his little legs.

You managed to arrange everything neatly, including managing to get the eye mask and fake gauntlets on an increasingly fussy baby desperate to see his father.

“C’mon Kei, let’s wake him up,” you whispered as you held your son’s hand. You pushed the door open as Keiko let out a happy yell at the sight of his dad.

Katsuki had been awake for at least half an hour, listening to your laughter but decided to pretend to be asleep for your sakes. His eyes opened in surprise at his son in his costume, ego swelling and eyes pricking.

“Baba!” Keiko attempted, reaching to grab his father’s face. Katsuki swooped down and grabbed him, causing Keiko to let out a massive laugh as his daddy pretended to eat him.

“Look at my little hero! That’s a pretty cool costume, Kei! I’m sure the original wearer is just as handsome as you,” he smirked confidently, making you shake your head and try to suppress a laugh.

You walk over to your two favourite boys, giving each one a kiss.

“Happy Father’s Day, baby. Me and Kei are gonna make it the best day ever,” you murmured into his ear. Katsuki grinned and murmured back

“It’s already off to an amazing start.”

Katsuki let out an impressed puff at the sight of breakfast foods spread across the table. Keiko babbled in his father’s buff arms, wiggling to be let down.

“Jesus friggin’ Christ babe, this looks…” he tailored off, happy grin polluting his face. You smiled in relief; you were so glad he liked it!

“Well, dig in my love! Keiko and I made everything from scratch,” you took Keiko from Katsuki’s arms and placed him in his high chair, tickling at his chubby ankles. You alternated between feeding your baby and feeding yourself; Keiko demolishing every small bite of fish and baby food.

“How is it baby?” You turned to ask Katsuki, giggling as you catch him shovel a large portion of rice into his mouth.

“Ish fucking delicious,” he drooled, savouring every bite.

“You and Kei must have worked really hard on this,” he smiled, poking at his chunky baby’s tummy, making him squeak in happiness.

“You deserve it, Ki. Eat up so Kei can give you his present!” You ushered him to eat, giving your baby the last of his food and hoisting him out of his high chair.

“Ma’am yes ma’am,” your husband playfully saluted as you gently smacked his arm in earnest.

After breakfast was cleaned away, you pulled Katsuki and Keiko into the living room. Katsuki sat on the couch as you pulled Keiko to the other side of the room.

Your knees groaned as you kneeled down, handing Keiko the small gift bag.

“Why don’t you go give your daddy the present you made him?” You asked excitedly. Katsuki full expected his son to start crawling as he usually does, but his breath hitched in his throat as his baby took a shaky step. And another, then another!

Keiko was soon toddling to his father, gift bag in tow and huge proud smile on his chubby face. Katsuki couldn’t believe it; his son could walk! He lifted Keiko high into the air, just before he would fall.

“When the hell did you learn this, eh?! Did you plan this?!” He looks back at you, pride flushing his face. You nodded back, tears of joy remaining unshed.

“Mhm! We’ve been practicing this for weeks, haven’t we bubba?” Keiko laughed in response.

“Open his gift!”

Katsuki set his baby on his knee and opened the delicately wrapped bag. Inside, a colourful amalgamation of air-dry clay consisting of Katsuki’s hero costume palate resting inside.

“I-is this-?” He looked at you astonished. You nodded and grinned tearfully again.

“Yep, the teachers at Keiko’s playgroup asked us to send in photos of the fathers and helped the children sculpt you all for a father’s day! Didn’t he do such a good job!” You joined your husband and son on the couch, wrapping your arms around your family.

Katsuki hugged you both tightly, kissing Keiko’s pink cheeks and your temple. Your heart fluttered at the small sniffles he let into your hair.

“Please don’t cry, Suki! You’ll make me cry you sensitive old man,” you giggled as you let out a small sob. You were so proud of your baby boy, and judging from Katsuki’s reaction, he was too.

“I love you both so fucking much, don’t you ever forget that,” he sobbed quietly. He never imagined that life would be like this; being your rival in first year, to friends, then best friend, then in a relationship, agency partners and eventually married and with child.

Keiko burbled confusedly at his father’s tears. He thought this day was to make him happy, not cry! He let out a big puff and yelled with his whole chest the one thing he constantly heard you say to his father.

“Dada! Wub you!” Keiko determinedly yelled to his father, causing him to snap his head towards him in shock. Katsuki gaped like a fish as he looked towards you, only to see a mirrored image of temporary petrification.

“What did you say, bubba? Say it again, say it again!” You exclaimed excitedly.

“Wub dada! Wub dada!” He exclaimed, basking in the amazed looks between each other. His chubby cheeks were attacked with kisses as he giggled happily.

“Did you teach him this too?!” Katsuki asked joyfully. His son’s first words were him expressing his love for his father, on the day celebrating him no less! You shook your head quickly.

“No, the little guy must have picked it up from us,” you say, tickling Keiko’s neck.

“Mph, phuck!” He giggled out, expecting the same reactions as before. You both completely froze, before you glared at Katsuki.

“I, er, uhhhhhh-“ he garbled out, trying to find the words. You rolled your eyes in contempt.

“Keiko, you can’t say that word. And Katsuki, get yourself ready. We’re going out for a Father’s Day event at Sato’s bakery,” you scolded, bringing Keiko to get changed.

Katsuki only looked at you both with pure love.

God he fucking loved his family.

XxX

"I swear you guys are so annoying" Bakugo said under his breath as he walked towards the classroom with Mina and Kirishima.

"Yet you still choose to hang out with us" Mina teased as Kirishima tossed an arm around his shoulder causing the blonde to growl in annoyance.

When they walked into Class 1A the first thing they noticed was the silence. The three students watched as the entire class looked towards the front of the classroom highly intrigued. The three of them followed everyone's gaze finding that Aizawa now had a desk right next to his podium. He sat in his desk chair quietly talking to Present Mic, Principal Nezu and two new faces. One of them was actually a familiar face, it was pro Hero Black Magix. She was holding hands with Present Mic as they stood around Aizawa's new desk. The other one was a new student. They wore the school uniform and sat on top of Aizawa's desk.

"What's going on?" Mina asked as the three of them went to their seats.

"Who knows?" Kirishima shrugged.

"Who cares" Bakugou scoffed. They all took their seats as they watched the scene upfront.

"Okay so I'm going to go get your pro uniform and we'll meet you outside" Black Magix said. The new student nodded their head as Magix left with Mic.

"Tell your class the news and we'll meet you all outside" Nezu said. Aizawa nodded his head getting up from his seat causing the new student to steal it.

"Hey Aizawa" They said quietly. Aizawa crouched down to their height as they quietly told him something. He nodded his head before standing at his podium.

"Okay class we'll be running things a little bit different today" Aizawa said. "Class meet (Y/n) (L/n), they're a late comer to UA" He said. "Now before you ask, they originally took the recommendation exam and did make it into UA but due to personal problems couldn't join the school year until now" Aizawa said looking down at the (H/c) haired student sitting at his desk. No one in the classroom had noticed yet that they wore a knee brace. "Today they will be testing their quirk against one of you and all of you. If that one person loses they will be bumped down to class 1B and their worst student will be dropped down to the General studies department. The entire class went sent into a state of shock.

"What if they lose" Bakugo asked.

"Then I'll be sent to my second choice of class which is the general studies class" (Y/n) shrugged.

"So you're just a privileged princess" Bakugo taunted with an eye roll.

"I wanna go against him" (Y/n) said without skipping a beat.

"Okay I'll blow your ass and make sure you won't get into this class" Bakugo growled as his palms started to crackle.

"Okay then, (Y/n) go find your sister, everyone else, get dressed, everyone is going to help out" Aizawa said.

"Wait Black Magix is your sister!?" Izuku asked excitedly.

"Yeah, She's the teacher for class 3A, did you not know that?" (Y/n) said.

"(Y/n) You have to realize these kids see the same six teachers every day and the only students they know are each other" Aizawa said. (Y/n) shrugged as they stood up opening a portal in front of themself.

"I'll see you guys later" (Y/n) said to the class their eyes stopping on Bakugou. They sent the ashy blonde a wink before jumping through the portal.

"I knew I recognized them" Momo said.

"What do you mean?" Uraraka asked.

"They took the entrance exam with Todoroki and I, their Quirk is incredibly impressive" She said.

"Eldritch Magic, makes them incredibly powerful. They lucked out with their quirk when they were born" Todoroki said as everyone grabbed their suits.

"Doesn't matter how impressive their quirk I'm still gonna kick their ass" Bakugo growled.

"Try to take it easy on them Bakubro, they're wearing a knee brace so they were probably injured" Kirishima said.

"Hell no, they're the one that wanted to go up against me" Bakugo said.

"Let's go" Aizawa said closing up the classroom.

After everyone made it outside in their suits they found (Y/n) was talking to Mic, Magix, and Nezu.

"Woah guys All Might is here too!" Izuku said excitedly.

"Yes Young Midoriya, I was informed of the new child and had decided to come watch the match between them and Young Bakugou" All Might said. Bakugo ignored the pro hero as he watched (Y/n).

They wore a (F/c) combat dress with a (S/f/c) cape. They had knee high black and (F/c) boots and had a black utility belt. Their right knee had a black brace on it and their hands were adorned with many rings. Their hair was pulled back tightly so it could be out of their eyes but Bakugou noticed the two streaks of (F/c) hair on the sides.

"Are you done gawking at them dude?" Sero teased.

"Shut It" Bakugo barked.

"I don't blame him, just look at those legs and and their butt looks great in that dress and I'm at perfect eye level with- ahhh!" Mineta yelled as a portal had opened under him causing him to fall through.

"If I win can he be kicked out the classroom?" (Y/n) asked.

"Sorry you're going against Bakugou" Aizawa said.

"Okay listen up!" He yelled. The entire class went silent and (Y/n) stood in between their big sister and Mic.

"The way this is going to work is that the test is going to start between (Y/n) and Bakugou and two other students of his choosing to help him" Aizawa said.

"If Bakugou isn't eliminated by the first 15 minutes we're going to call 2 names at a time to help and protect him every 5 minutes" Present Mic said.

"(Y/n) will have the ability to eliminate students by using their portals and making them drop behind us" Black Magix said.

"If all the students are in then Black Magix, Present Mic, All Might, and Eraserhead are going to help" Nezu said.

"The goal is to make sure Bakugou doesn't get eliminated" All Might said.

"The way to eliminate (Y/n) is to knock her down on the ground for at least 15 seconds, immobilize them, or having them give up" Magix said.

"Bakugou choose your first two helpers" Aizawa said. (Y/n) Stepped forward as did Bakugo.

"Kirishima and Dunce Face I guess" Bakugo said. The two boys cheered as they each stood to his side. "

Ready (Y/n)?" Magix asked.

"Yeah" (Y/n) said.

"Begin!" The teachers all yelled.

1 Hour and 10 Minutes Later

"Icy Hot!" Bakugou yelled when he realized the predicament they were in. (Y/n) had managed to eliminate 17 students and four pro heroes in the past 15 minutes. Every possible person was out in the field fighting against them after the 55 minute mark and they had just eliminated 21 people in 15 minutes.

"What do you want to do, it's your position in the classroom on the line" Todoroki asked. Bakugou took notice how (Y/n) was giving special attention to their right knee.

"Freeze their right leg to the ground" Bakugou whispered to him. Todoroki nodded his head the two went to fight them and (Y/n) made a portal to try and target Todoroki. He jumped out of the way in time and froze their right leg to the ground. (Y/n) screamed opening a portal on the ground that Todoroki was about to land on. He couldn't move this time causing him to be eliminated leaving (Y/n) and Bakugou. Bakugou chuckled running towards them.

"Die!" He yelled.

"Get him!" (Y/n) yelled. Their (S/f/c) cape obliged as it flew off their shoulders and towards Bakugou. The cape wrapped himself around his fists first before wrapping itself around the rest of Bakugo's body causing the boy to fall to the ground mid-air allowing (Y/n) to open a portal bellow him and making him join the rest of his classmates.

"(Y/n) wins!" Aizawa yelled. The cape finally released Bakugou flying above him. The explosion boy held a look of shock on his face.

"Everyone get changed and head back to class, we'll discuss more tomorrow" Nezu said looking down at his watch. This took a lot longer than he had anticipated and now their class over lapped with Mic's lesson.

"It's fine, I didn't make any plans for today knowing they were going to take long" Mic said wrapping his arm around Magix's waist.

"So we continue in your class?" Aizawa asked.

"I don't mind" Mic shrugged without a care in the world.

"Okay, everyone head back to class" Aizawa said.

All eyes landed on Bakugo who seemed furious. Todoroki and Momo had gone over to (Y/n) to help them out. Momo helped them stand upright while Todoroki melted the ice off their leg.

"Is Bakugo really going to get bumped down to Class 1B?" Mina asked.

"I just feel bad for the poor 1B students that's going to get kicked out because of him" Sero said.

"Yeah, imagine having to get kicked out of the hero course just because another student joined the school" Kaminari said.

"Unless It's Monoma, Mr. Aizawa did say it was their worst student that was going to get kicked out, hopefully it's Monoma" Kirishima said.

"We can talk to them about kicking out Mineta, you guys do realize he's still wherever (L/n) sent him off to" Tsuyu said.

"I was wondering why everything seemed more peaceful" Hagakure said. No one seemed to notice the look of defeat on Bakugou's face as they all went to get changed.

"Are you okay?" Momo asked after Todoroki melted the ice around (Y/n)'s leg.

"Yeah, you guys were super cool out there" (Y/n) compliments. They looks around the class seeing Bakugou his head hanging low as he trudged behind the rest of the class. "You guys should go get changed, see you in class" They said kindly to the two other recommended students. They opened a portal on the floor jumping in their cape following behind them before the portal closed.

When everyone went back to the classroom they found Bakugo pouting at his desk. No one dared to come up to him and talk to him. Like earlier that morning Aizawa sat at his desk (Y/n) sitting upon it. Mic was leaning against the podium one arm wrapped around Magix's waist. Nezu leaned against the chalk board talking to the group of teachers.

Magix said something that caused (Y/n) to sassily reply saying, "Don't you have a class to teach"

"For your information I called in a sub for today, I wasn't about to miss my little sibling kicking ass out there" Magix chuckled making Bakugou scoff and roll his eyes.

"Before we continue (Y/n) would you mind bringing back Mineta" Aizawa said.

"Who?" (Y/n) asked.

"The purple pervert" The class answers in unison.

"Oh right" (Y/n) said opening a portal above the one open seat. The class pervert fell into his seat his face sickly green and still in his hero uniform.

"Mineta go get changed, and if you throw up do it in the bathroom" Aizawa said. The boy nodded his head slowly leaving the classroom.

"Alright listen up, (Y/n) is going to be Class 1A's newest student" Aizawa said standing up (Y/n) once again stealing his seat.

"As for Bakugou" Nezu said stepping forward. The class fell silent.

"I want you to work with (Y/n) on team assignments from now on, I think you can learn a lot from them" Nezu said.

"So he's not getting kicked out?" Izuku asked.

"No, I just had Aizawa say that so he would give me his best, so all of you would give me your best actually. Sure he seems like an asshole and everything but I know you guys actually wouldn't trade him for the world so everyone gave it their all, even Todoroki back there had the nerve to freeze my injured leg" (Y/n) said.

"What happened to your leg if you don't mind us asking" Uraraka asked. (Y/n) and Magix shared a look. Magix nodded allowing (Y/n) to explain.

"The day that I got my acceptance letter to UA, I was home alone while Mahō was working with Hizashi" (Y/n) said gesturing to her sister and Present Mic. Mahō was the nickname they gave their sister and they were already used to calling Hizashi by his first name. "When I got my letter before I could open it the apartment Aka and I lived in got attacked by a villain, I got into a fight with him and he broke my knee, I managed to tie him up with my Eldritch whips and sent him to jail but my injury was so bad that I couldn't come to school. This morning I had my last physical therapy session. I have to continue wear this knee brace for a few months and after that it's only necessary when my knee starts to hurt" (Y/n) explained.

"After the incident (Y/n) and I moved in with Mic and we refuse to leave them home alone so they always came with us to school. And hung out in Recovery Girl's office" Magix said.

"Before you ask the reason I didn't have RG heal me is because I'm stubborn, I don't want to go to her every time I get injured and I don't want to rely on her for my incidents, I wanted to heal on my own" (Y/n) said causing all eyes to land on Izuku making (Y/n) chuckled. "RG complains about you and All Might a lot green bean" (Y/n) said. "Anyways, in the meantime I continued to practice my magic. I didn't luck out when It came to my quirk, I just trained hard enough to master it and own it" (Y/n) explained as they banged their wrists together and held their hands out to show two shields.

"I hope you can learn from this Bakugou, maybe next time you can defeat them" Magix said chuckling causing the ash blonde to roll his eyes.

"They're just a privileged prince" He said annoyed.

"Your not wrong" (Y/n) laughed.

"Wait is (L/n) is going to be joining us where are they going to sit?" Iida asked.

"First of all I request that you call me (Y/n) the half american part of me likes being called by my first name," (Y/n) said their sister agreeing with them. "Second of all I'm going to be stealing Shouta's desk until I get my own" (Y/n) smirked earning a glare from Aizawa. "Sorry force of habit" (Y/n) said.

"How close are you to Mr. Aizawa?" Sero asked.

"Oh he's basically like another brother to me. Obviously he's best friend's with Hizashi and Hizashi is dating my sister so the two of them along with Nemuri are basically like my brothers and Sister" (Y/n) said leaning forward on the desk.

"I was saying it as a joke at first but sheesh you really are privileged being surrounded by pro hero's all the time" Bakugo said.

"I mean Todoroki back there has a pro hero for a dad, I'm convinced Midoriya is All Might's secret love child and one of the students from class 1C is currently being trained by a pro hero so I'm not the only privileged one here cutie" (Y/n) said sassily.

"See I'm not the only one that thinks so!" Todoroki argues.

"I'm not his secret love child Todoroki" Izuku said.

"I'm going to leave, enjoy class (Y/n)" Nezu said as he left.

"You guys can have free time until Midnight gets here, there's no point teaching at this point" Mic shrugged as he left the classroom taking Magix with him. (Y/n) stood up walking towards Bakugou's desk crouching down in front of it.

"Sorry for scaring you Baku, but I look forward to working with you from now on" (Y/n) said kindly. Bakugou scoffed rolling his eyes.

"I don't want to work with a privileged little princess like you" Bakugou said.

"Well to bad hot shot looks like you're going to have to until you manage that temper" (Y/n) said as they sat on his desk. Bakugou didn't react. He didn't get mad at them, push them of or anything. He just rolled his eyes. "How about after school we go to my sister's agency and train in their gym?" (Y/n) suggested.

"Sure" Bakugo said without skipping a beat causing his classmates to gasp.

"Cool" (Y/n) smiles as they rubbed their bad knee slightly.

"Sorry about having half 'n half shoot your leg, how bad is it?" Bakugo asked. Everyone took notice of how calm he was being. His voice still sounded like he was annoyed but his face seemed curious and worried.

"It's not too bad. It is a little sensitive to temperature so I accept your apology. The only downside is the gnarly scar I have" (Y/n) said undoing the Velcro on the brace showing Bakugou the scar running from the side of their knee cap up to their thigh, the scar was mainly covered by the brace so it was unnoticeable. They put the brace back on leaning back on their hands and for once, Bakugo had a calm civilized conversation with someone.

5 Months Later

"Hizashi Fucking Yamada what did you do to my sister!" (Y/n) yelled.

"There they are" Izuku said. A lot of the students had been wondering where (Y/n) was since they had been missing all morning. They slammed the classroom door opened and dropped their bag at the door walking up to the English teacher.

"I don't care when you do it, how you do it, but you are going to propose to her soon!" (Y/n) yelled. "My older sister is skipping work today because she's crying in her room because she thinks you're going to break up with her!" (Y/n) yelled as they poked Hizashi's chest making him back up. The class fell dead silent.

"You're hot when you're mad" Bakugo chuckled from his seat catching the entire class off guard.

"Thanks I know" (Y/n) smirked that comment calming them down instantly. "What did you even tell her Hiza?" (Y/n) asked their hands on their hips.

"Well she caught me looking at wedding stuff and I panicked and told her that marriage was the last thing on my mind. That I'm a pro hero and a dj/radio host yo, someone like me don't got no time to be tied down to one lady for life and make a future with them" Hizashi said sheepishly.

"How the hell did she not break up with you the minute those words left your mouth?" Sero asked in disbelief.

"I know right, if my future boyfriend ever said that I would've slapped him across the face and left him right then and there" Hagakure said all the girls agreeing with her.

"After I said that I reassured her saying she was the only one I loved and that she made me happy. She just hummed kissed my cheek and walked away" Mic said as he sat on (Y/n)'s desk. The desk was technically for the teachers (mainly Aizawa) but (Y/n) used it the most since they still didn't have their own seat in the class.

"She's really upset Hiza" (Y/n) said sighing heavily. They walked over to Bakugou's desk sitting on top of it. This has become the norm between the two students.

"What should I do?" Hizashi asked.

"Propose to her!" The entire class of 21 students said in unison.

"Okay okay fine sheesh, I'm gonna go find Sho, you're in charge (Y/n)" Hizashi said leaving the classroom.

"Well there goes class for the day" Uraraka said as (Y/n) went back to the teacher desk. They started going through papers that were a mixture of papers Hizashi needed to grade and Aizawa's teaching plans. They organized the area like they usually would taking out Midnight's teaching papers setting them on the podium since Midnight's class was next. "So (Y/n)" Uraraka asked going to the front desk followed by a few of the other girls.

"Are you and Bakugou a thing?" Mina giggles as she sat on the desk. (Y/n) chuckled putting Hizashi and Aizawa's papers away.

"No, we just act like that a lot. We got into a weird habit of flirting with each other" (Y/n) shrugged. All the girls of the class sat with (Y/n) around their desk questioning them about their relationship with Bakugou. (Y/n) just laughed and calmly answering the questions and when they could they would glance at Bakugou finding him already staring at them. They would sent him a wink and a smile that would calm him down enough to continue to be interrogated by his own friends.

"Dude they're so hot and cool, how'd you get so lucky to be with them?" Kaminari asked.

"I didn't 'get lucky' Dunce Face. (N/n) and I aren't dating we're just friends" Bakugo said his face tinted pink from the wink (Y/n) sent him.

"Oh c'mon you call them your friend but you won't call us your friends?" Kaminari said.

"Remember guys, Bakugo isn't here to make friends" Sero taunted. Kirishima snorted along with Kaminari and Izuku.

"That's what Todoroki said" Izuku said.

"Same with Shinso" Kaminari added.

"Look at us now" Kirishima teased causing the group to laugh.

"I hate all of you" Todoroki and Bakugou said in unison.

"C'mon bro do you even like them like that?" Kirishima asked.

"Like what?" Bakugo asked.

"Do you have a feelings for (Y/n)?" Todoroki asked.

"Yeah" Bakugo admitted bluntly. The group of boys fell silent just as the group of girls squealed in excitement. After Momo asked (Y/n) bluntly admitted to having a crush on Bakugo.

"Why don't you ask them out man?" Kirishima asked.

"Why don't you ask him out?" Mina asked.

"Because we both don't have time to be in a relationship," Bakugo shrugged using that as his excuse. He didn't want to admit that he was scared to ask them out.

"Because I don't need to crush his overly inflated ego by asking him out. If he likes me he'll ask me out" (Y/n) shrugged. They just didn't want to admit that they were scared to ask him out.

"You see them all day every day bro, c'mon you're just being a wuss about it" Kaminari teased.

"That's true, Bakugo would be pissy if you asked him out" Jirou said.

"What'd You say you damn Pikachu reject!" Bakugo snapped as he shot up from his seat threatening to explode Kaminari.

"Katsu honey calm down, you blew up Mineta already we don't need you blowing up Kaminari too" (Y/n) said gesturing to the grape boy that had a bandage on his cheek along with a bruise. He earned it the day prior when he grabbed (Y/n)'s butt during training and Bakugo saw and AP shot him across the training grounds.

Bakugo growled as he sat back down.

"They called you honey" Izuku chuckled.

"Shut It you damn nerd!" Bakugo yelled.

"C'mon man I'm sure (Y/n) has a crush on you too" Sero said.

"At least give him a hint that you like him (Y/n). I'm positive he has a crush on you too" Hagakure said.

"Yeah no one can calm him down like you do" Jirou said all the girls agreeing with her.

"Just ask them out already, c'mon man you're the first person they go to when they have an issue, they don't even go to their sister or Present Mic" Kirishima said all the boys agreeing with him.

"You really want me to give him a hint?" (Y/n) asked. The girls all nodded their heads.

"Why the hell do you guys even care?" Bakugou asked.

"Because the sexual tension between the two of you at this point in unbearable" Todoroki shrugged.

"What'd you say you half 'n half bastard?" Bakugou yelled.

"Hey Katsuki!" (Y/n) said catching the explosive boy's attention.

"What do you want now?" Bakugou asked shoving his hands in his pockets.

"I have a crush on you" (Y/n) shrugged before going back to talking to the girls who were now giggling. Bakugou had frozen in his spot as his face started to turn pink. All the boys actually were in shock at how blunt they had been.

"I'll ask them out after Mic proposes to (S/n), we don't need their sister feeling shitty because (Y/n) got into a relationship while she thinks hers is failing" Bakugou said. But when he said that was the exact moment the class fell silent. (Y/n)'s face was bright at the comment they bite their lip getting up from their seat going to Bakugou's desk as he sat down.

"I like how you care about my sister enough to do that Katsu" (Y/n) said with a small grin.

"Well I'm not an asshole" Bakugo said.

"Debatable" The rest of the class including (Y/n) said in unison causing him to growl. "But still, that's really sweet of you to even care about her relationship as much as I do" (Y/n) said.

"I care about the things you care about, dreadfully" Bakugo said causing (Y/n) to laugh. Their laugh made him smile.

"I'm willing to wait until the proposal if you are" (Y/n) said.

"I can wait" Bakugou chuckled. They both had a blush on their face and softly talked to each other while everyone else did their own thing until it was Midnight's turn to teach.

Two Weeks Later

"I fucking hate this" Bakugo growled as he walked to class with Kirishima.

"It's been two weeks how much longer does he need?" Kirishima asked. When the two of them walked to class they found all the girls surrounding Mic and Aizawa at the front desk squealing and giggling.

"How'd you find it?" Momo asked.

"Sho found it for me. I know she likes flat prong rings so I found one online that was perfect it has our pro colors" Mic chuckled.

"On patrol yesterday I stopped a guy from robbing a jewelry store and found the ring, I called him and told him about it" Aizawa said.

"Aww so you do have a soul" Mina teased.

"Only for his best bud, right Sho?" Mic laughed.

"It's so pretty, Mahō's gonna love it Hiza" (Y/n) said happily.

"He got the ring" Bakugo said when he realized the conversation that was going on.

"He got the ring man" Kirishima said patting Bakugo's shoulder.

"Fuck yeah" Bakugo chuckled to himself.

"So when are you gonna propose Hiza?" (Y/n) asked.

"I want to do it today when you guys are training, her students are going to do their work studies so she's going to have free time when All Might is teaching you guys, I kind of need my kiddos there to make sure I don't wuss out" Mic laughed ruffling (Y/n)'s hair and causing the girls to giggle.

"You'll be fine Mic just speak your heart, how mad is she at you right now?" Hagakure asked.

"I've been sleeping by myself for the past week" Mic said causing everyone to hiss painfully.

"(S/n) left before any of us woke up today, I'd say she's kinda pissed at him now instead of sad" (Y/n) said.

"Do you think she's gonna say yes?" Mic asked.

"Mic!" Bakugo called out causing the class to go silent. "Trust me once you open your heart to her and explain to her why you've been acting like this, there's no way she can reject you" He said. Mic chuckled walking towards the boys desk.

"Thanks kiddo, you'll be a good man for (Y/n)" Mic said ruffling his hair. Bakugo growled slapping his hand away making the teacher laugh. (Y/n) had told Mic about the deal that two students had made.

"Hey!" All Might yelled walking into class causing everyone to quiet down. "Midnight is on her way to get (S/n) are you ready Yamada?" He asked.

"Let's go" Mic laughed in excitement. Aizawa pulled out the suits everyone grabbing their own.

"Ready?" (Y/n) asked Bakugo with a smirk. The explosive boy smirked nodding his head.

"Not gonna lie these past two weeks have been painful" Bakugo said pressing his forehead against (Y/n)'s.

"Both of you stop being gross and let's go" Uraraka called out. The two students left to go get changed into their hero suits.

After getting changed they went onto the training grounds to be met with All Might, Aizawa, Midnight, and Mic.

"Where's Magix?" Izuku asked. Because of All Mights inability to physically fight now Magix is stepping in for him. He's gonna teach the hero stuff but the physical aspect of it is going to be taught by (S/n).

"Getting changed into her hero suit" Todoroki said.

"Woah, look at your futute partner Bakubro" Kirishima said. Before taking the provincial license exam a few students had made adjustments to their super suits but (Y/n) seemed to make more adjustments than anyone else.

They now wore a (F/c) leotard but still had the stupid magical (S/f/c) cape that Bakugou hates. The Black utility belt was replaced by a simple little brown bag that was on a necklace and their boots had holsters In the sides of them for their Eldritch weapons. They kept the collection of rings on their fingers and their hair was slicked back with the two (F/c) strands sticking out more.

"They're still hot" Kaminari said causing Bakugou to scoff.

"Yeah and they're mine" He said walking towards the sibling pair.

"Hey kiddo" (S/n) said. Her eyes trailed over the classroom until they stopped on Mic. Her smile fell and she suddenly looked upset. "Why is Hizashi here?" She asked looking down at the two teenagers.

"He wants to talk to you" Bakugou said grabbing (Y/n)'s hand. This didn't go unnoticed by (S/n).

"Babygirl!" Mic calls out walking towards (S/n). Bakugou and (Y/n) both back up giving the two teachers and pro heroes their personal space.

"Took him long enough" Bakugo said.

"You're one to talk firecracker" (Y/n) rolled her eyes.

"What do you mean privileged prince" Bakugou retaliated. (Y/n) didn't answer they just whistled quietly looking around innocently. Bakugou looked back at Mic and Magix. Mic had gotten down on one knee causing the girls in the classroom to 'awe'.

"Oh that's what you want" Bakugo smirked.

"I'm waiting" (Y/n) chuckled. Bakugo rolled his eyes with a dark chuckle.

"Be my partner" He said.

"That's more like demanding than asking but fuck it I can't wait anymore" (Y/n) said. Bakugo chuckled leaning down to lock lips with them. (Y/n)'s hands went to his ashy blonde hair.

"Awww all of you are gross" Momo said. Bakugo and (Y/n) pulled apart to see Hizashi and (S/n) do the same. The two couples laughed.

"Was that worth the wait?" (Y/n) asked.

"Hell yeah" Bakugo nodded his head kissing his partner again.

What funeral rites the Noldor knew were mostly adapted from their Sindar and Avari neighbors. Before Finwe’s death, a funeral was mostly an alien concept. Even Finwe’s wife Miriel Serinde didn’t have one, after the unexpected end of her first life.

The Sindar and Avari burned the bodies of their dead, to prevent the orcs and other fell creatures from feasting on them. Sometimes, they were buried. But always, burning was the ideal for disposing of a dead one’s remains, for even buried elves may be dug out, and by foul craft and wizardry, be given some form of corrupt life, reanimated, and then used in the Black Enemy’s armies. No need to give Morgoth even more fodder, so to speak.

So it was burning. Or a ritual burning, if no body could be found. Then dried flowers were also burned in offering.

Finrod watched the lavender sprigs shrivel up in the flames. He supposes they give out a wonderful scent but he does not have the heart nor mind to appreciate it. The pale purple hues turn orange, then black, then become indistinguishable from the rest of the small mound of ash beneath everything else.

Fire and death.

Barahir told him that the capital of Dorthonion burned under the onslaught of liquid fire from Angband; that thousands perished, unable to outrun the blaze. Soldiers cooked alive in their armor, and civilians reduced to ashy representations of their last moments. The flames came first, Barahir said, and then the multitude of orcs, trolls and werewolves, herded by the flaming Balrogs that cracked their whips.

Angrod and Aegnor, it was said, survived the first onslaught of the flame, but not when the iron fist of Angband smashed against Dorthonion. They died, it was said, not by the rivers of flame, but by the flames of the dragons.

But Finrod can only repeat in his mind, over and over, in hellish recreation, how terrified Aegnor must have been. Angrod must have tried his best to get Edhellos to escape, to rejoin Orodreth and his family in Minas Tirith. But, knowing Edhellos, she refused, clad herself in armor and wielded a sword just like everybody else. She would have perished first, for she may know a bit of the sword, but she is Vanya, and she was never a fighter. Her staying would have caused Angrod to falter, and in so faltering, he might have been outsmarted by an orc, or moved too late to dodge the poisoned arrows.

And Aegnor, Egg– Egg whom Finrod raised himself as if he were his own son – Egg who would not have abandoned Angrod. Who would have tried to get him to safety, fending off the orcs, even if the swarm that advanced around them came from all sides, and there was no safety nor rescue to be had.

Finrod weeps bitterly, but his mourning is soundless. Just a great, silent torrent of tears.

He, stuck at Serech, trying his hardest in his despair to breach the bottleneck, mindlessly sacrificing Eldar and Edain just to get to Dorthonion.

Egg would have been so afraid.

Egg would have called for him, in the end.

He would have called – hanno! – and no elder brother came to his rescue.

The lavender sprigs are ash.

Finrod, absently, fumbles for the knife sheathed by his side. He pulls the blade out, and he surveys his gaunt reflection on the perfect steel, before he takes the blade to his long, golden hair, and hacks away at the strands.

He hacks at his own hair with such viciousness he skins his own scalp. Blood trickles down his temples. But he hacks, hacks, hacks. The pain is distant. The pain is nothing, compared to what Angrod and Aegnor would have endured until at last the world faded into nothing.

Every inch of this pain, Finrod deserved, and more.

He lets go of the dagger from sticky, bloodstained fingers. By his feet, a pool of red and gold. He is bald and his head is injured. A crown of blood, for a failure of a king.

All his life he had been beholden to the Valar.

He might have been imperfect, but he did his best to obey the Dooms, to pray, to be thankful, to be kind. To be noble, generous and perfect. Why is it that he is the one who gets to taste the bitterness of failure; to be unable to save his brothers?

(The last of the reports before everything went dead silent confirmed all the Feanorians are alive, but their whereabouts unknown, except Maedhros, still at Himring. Himring, that stood unfailing against the onslaught that burned the Lothlann.)

Why is he the one who gets to fail?

Why is he the one who gets to live with the fact that he was so close, yet so far?

Why?

Someone is screaming at the door. Finrod doesn’t care who it is. Then the next thing he knows, Finduilas is by his side, weeping and babbling, trying to get him to move, to take him to the healers.

Finrod pulls his arm from her grasp.

His gaze trails to the mess of blood and hair on the floor.

The tears don’t dry.

[ Mina, a terrifying demon with dark circled eyes that glow in light, sprawling black veins and ashy white skin that looks like marble -- who also happens to audibly purr, mew, and chitter like a cat. (She can also scream and roar, but that's rare). Nothing would warm my heart more than her becoming comfortable enough with someone to just chill with them in her natural form, getting some good quality snuggles, and communicating exclusively in loud purring and chirping sounds.

If youre a monster fucker who also likes cat girls, I have the vampire for you. ]

My headcanon for Dorian in the LXG film is that he has long since lived past his actual lifespan and that's why his healing factor works as any injuries that would otherwise bleed turn to ash now instead, as if he's walking dead with no blood left - the blood is the life, etc. - and his ashy corpse is barely being held together by dark magic.

Anyway, if that's true, it would be interesting if Mina always felt something was off bc she couldn't detect a pulse, even if she looks surprised in the movie when Dorian's immortality is revealed, and Jekyll could also tell bc he seems to have Hyde's heightened senses even as himself now, so maybe Dorian smells slightly ashy to him; they're both also the only two characters on the team who know about the magical nature of the portrait, even if the film did nothing with Jekyll knowing as yet another missed opportunity.

My Hero Academia Request List

Here’s a list of all of the requests I’ve received in my inbox for My Hero Academia characters as of now! Because my WIP list only highlights the works I’m actively working on at the moment, I decided to create this list for you guys to know if your request has been received! I’ll try to update this list as often as I can to reflect my requests as accurately as possible, and your request will eventually get written as long as it’s on this list, even if it’s not on my WIP list at the moment!

These requests are organized by what kind of request they are, and among these categories, they will be listed from oldest at the top to the most recent at the bottom. This means that requests from before my hiatus are at the very top and will be bolded to show that they’re pre-hiatus requests. But while I usually do my requests in the order I received them, requests received before my hiatus are lower priority for me right now, so while I am working through those as well, requests from after I came back from my hiatus this year (AKA the ones that aren’t bolded) will be moving at a faster pace! Thank you all for sending in these requests, I hope you enjoy them as I work my way through them and feel free to send in a request to appear on this list as long as my requests are open! :)

THE TALE OF OUTCASTS: locandina e nuovo trailer per l’anime che vedremo da gennaio su Crunchyroll

Il manga di Makoto Hoshino, dal quale è tratta la serie, si è concluso lo scorso anno con l’ottavo volume.

Finalmente riesco a fare un post come si deve su “THE TALE OF OUTCASTS” (Nokemono-tachi no Yoru)! Sfortuna ha voluto che ne relegassi le prime news in un paio di megathread, ma ora eccoci qua, con il nuovo trailer che fissa il debutto della serie animata all’8 gennaio 2023.

Prima di lasciarvi al video, vi ricordo che il supernatural drama, basato sul manga di Makoto Hoshino, arriverà in simulcast su Crunchyroll.

youtube

L’adattamento è diretto da Yasutaka Yamamoto (Hinomaru Sumo, Noblesse) e in produzione presso lo studio ASHI PRODUCTIONS, al primo lavoro di rilievo dopo parecchi anni (e un po’ si vede eh).

Alla sceneggiatura stanno lavorando Kenichi Yamashita (Holmes of Kyoto), Sayaka Harada (Noblesse) e lo stesso regista.

Il character design è curato da Mina Osawa (Given), mentre le musiche sono firmate da Kana Hashiguchi (Classroom of the Elite II) e Hiroaki Tsutsumi (Jujutsu Kaisen).

Il demone al suo fianco è la sua salvezza. La ragazza al suo fianco rappresenta il suo passato. Il loro incontro avvenuto alla fine del diciannovesimo secolo nell'Impero Britannico dà il via a un racconto sulla ricerca di un luogo a cui appartenere. Ai loro compagni emarginati, questo demone e questa ragazza sussurrano il loro racconto, nel buio della notte.

Il manga è stato pubblicato sulle pagine di Weekly Shounen Sunday fra il 2019 e il 2021. Shogakukan ne ha raccolto i 76 capitoli in 8 volumetti.

here’s a little snippet of the fic i had you guys pick sana ships for the other day! it’s turning out to be quite long but i figured a lot of you were curious so i thought i would let you guys see the first few paragraphs hehe

Sana sighed as she tugged her coat tighter around herself. Korea in March was a lot colder than Osaka in March, and despite her love for snow, she couldn’t help but crave the nostalgic and comforting warmth of the Osaka spring air. Years ago, she was used to the cold. Sana used to find the chill of early spring to be a sign of hope, a sign that things were getting warmer after a frigid winter. But now, she was just cursing herself for not packing that extra sweater Mina had tried to force her to take and wishing her flight was leaving today instead of tomorrow. She was cursing herself for not thinking about getting her Uber earlier and cursing herself for even coming here in the first place.

Initially, Sana had thought she would miss Korea. It had been her home for so long after all, Sana had assumed at least some part of her would miss Korea. She thought she might miss the quiet chilly Spring mornings, or walks by the river, or at the very least her friends. But truthfully, Sana didn’t miss any of it. Osaka was warm, loud, and most importantly, there weren’t any ghosts haunting her. Sana had already seen enough ghosts of her past today, she was ready to go home.

However, as much as she craved the warm slightly salty air of home, there was one more ghost she had to face before she left. A final boss, if you will. And Sana already wanted to throw up at the thought of the dinner she was on her way to. This meeting had been her idea, and looking at herself now, dressed in the most formal dress she could find and warmest jacket she had haphazardly thrown into her luggage, she cursed past Sana for her stupid ideas.

We haven’t talked to each other in nearly two years, but I’m sure if we just sit down together everything will be just like old times. Dinner will fix everything. Sana internally mocked herself. Really, she wished she had put even the slightest bit more thought into her idea. As her Uber finally arrived, Sana made sure her sunglasses and face mask were secure. As far as the general public knew, she was still in Japan. And really, Sana wanted to keep it that way. She had too much to lose if the wrong person found out where she was, or what she was doing in Korea in the first place.

Sana watched as the ashy streets of Seoul passed by the car window. Really, she did not miss anything about this place.

#yay angst #this is going to be a very painful fic #no ships given away yet you guys can guess >:)

Nampō Roku, Book 7 (75b): Appendix: the Genpon [原本] Version of Entry 75.

75) Mizusashi with three feet, incense trays with three feet, kiki-kōro [聞き香爐] -- [in the case of] all of these, [the side with] one foot is the front¹. In accordance with this, the legs of the furo [that is used] on the daisu [should also be arranged in the same way], [you] must understand². Naturally, with things like [three-legged] candlesticks, one foot should be the front when viewed [by the guests]³.

If, thinking that because [we] are making offerings to the centermost of the [three] images of the Buddha, [we] then orient [the kōro] so that two feet are used as the front, with [the side with] one foot facing toward the painting [of the Buddha], and so on -- there are people who argue [in this way]⁴. [But] this is a serious misunderstanding⁵. It is always the case that the utensils [arranged] on the oshi-ita [押板], when it is placed in front of things like an image of the founder [of a school or sect], or the Buddha, the kōro is placed so that it is from the central image [that blessings are showered] upon those who come forward to worship: the act of burning incense with one’s own hands serves to edify [the worshiper’s] own heart; [therefore] there is no doubt that [the side with] one foot should be placed as the front [facing toward the worshiper]⁶.

Even those people who adhere to the opinion that the front is [the side with] two feet, still [turn the lid] so that the face of the creature faces in this direction, while only the [side with the single] foot faces toward the central image⁷. [Such nonsensical behavior] makes [those with a knowledge of the truth] break out in a loud guffaw⁸!

With respect to the utensil mat of the three-mat [room], always -- always -- all of the utensils should be arranged so that they face toward my front⁹. Because the arrangement [of the utensils] is an expression of the heart that is committed to the service [of one’s guests], in whatever circumstances, there is no case where the back side [of a utensil] should ever be placed so it is toward me¹⁰.

_________________________

◎ This version of the entry, while clearly based on the toku-shu shahon text, has been changed (and expanded) by the editor so that it better focus on the trends and developments in the world of chanoyu at the end of the Edo period -- while also linking the teachings more directly to the practice of chanoyu.

¹Mitsu-ashi no mizusashi, mitsu-ashi no kō-bon, kiki-kōro, mina-mina ashi hitotsu mae nari　[三ツ足ノ水指、三ツ足ノ香盆、キヽ香爐、ミナ〰足一ツ前ナリ].

Mitsu-ashi no mizusashi [三つ足の水指] means a mizusashi with three feet. Furuta Sōshitsu’s Iga-yaki Yabure-bukuro [破れ袋] (shown in the previous post) is said by some to have established this precedent. It seems that most of the early “mitsu-ashi mizusashi” were actually similar cases to the piece made by Oribe -- where one or two legs were (subsequently) added to pieces (usually from the Shigaraki, Iga, or Bizen kilns -- kilns that often fired the pieces intended for chanoyu for very long periods of times, sometimes exceeding 2 months, in order to build up an accumulation of natural ash glaze) that had partially collapsed during firing.

Mitsu-ashi no kō-bon [三つ足の香盆] means an incense tray with three feet. This is not referring to the large tray on which the objects necessary for mon-kō [聞香]* were arranged (which is what the word kō-bon originally meant). Rather, it means the smaller tray (usually no larger than 8-sun in diameter in Jōō’s and Rikyū’s period†) on which a kōro was displayed (such as on kō-dana, the shelf above the ji-fukuro, of the fukuro-dana). This is the sketch from the Rikyū chanoyu sho [利休茶湯書] -- the collection of Shū-un-an documents (published in 1580) that inspired Tachibana Jitsuzan to seek permission to investigate the remaining documents in Nambō Sōkei’s wooden chest (since he had been told that much yet remained that had not been included in this collection) -- that shows a bon-kōro displayed on the kō-dana of the fukuro-dana (please note the depiction of the orientation of the feet).

Trays intended for this purpose usually had feet -- to provide a cushion of air between the bottom of the tray and the shelf, so as to protect the shelf from the heat of the kōro‡.

Kiki-kōro [聞き香爐] refers to the special hand-held censer used when appreciating incense in this way.

These kōro always had three feet that were not evenly distributed around the base (the space between the front foot and that on the left was a little greater, since the fingers of the left hand were passed between these two feet when resting the kōro on the palm of that hand). This can be seen in the photo on the right.

Haku-Raku [白樂] -- white Raku -- seen in the above example, was created especially for kiki-kōro**.

Mina-mina ashi-hitotsu mae nari [皆々足一つ前なり] means in the case of all of these, one foot is the front. __________ *Mon-kō [聞香] refers to the appreciation of a small piece of kyara incense that is burned in a hand-held censer, which was passed around three times so that each of the three stages of its fragrance could be appreciated by all of the guests (and the host).

The term mon-kō originally meant the appreciation of incense as a way to enter into a state of samadhi through the sense of smell, a practice that, like chanoyu, arrived from Korea during the fifteenth century: this term was intended to distinguish this approach to incense from the earlier Japanese kō-awase [香合わせ] competitions -- where distinguishing the identities of the different varieties of incense that had been burned (usually in relatively rapid succession) was used as a way to score points (and win prizes). When the last scion of the expatriate Shino family died (in 1571), the school was taken over by their Japanese disciples, who soon began to imitate the older Japanese practices, entirely abandoning the meditative emphasis that had been placed on the burning of kyara incense by the original Korean members of the Shino family.

†Yoshimasa, however, displayed the Chidori kōro [千鳥香爐] by itself on the naka-marubon [中丸盆] (which measures 1-shaku 2-sun 3-bu in diameter).

This, however, was because the original tray had a brass plate inlaid into the face of the tray, which was specifically intended to protect the tray from heat damage. (This particular tray had originally been made, on the continent, for carrying hot dishes of food from the palace kitchens to the residential apartments, so it would easily support a kōro that would never get hot enough to burn the palm of the human hand, much less damage a lacquered tray.)

‡Jōō created the fukuro-dana by modifying the very similar tana that had been used by the Shino family (he replaced the pair of hinged doors that enclosed the ji-fukuro with a lift-out panel -- this process mirrored the way that Jōō took the Shino family’s kō-kai [香會] and modified it slightly to create his own cha-kai [茶會]); and, with respect to the appreciation of incense during his early tea gatherings, adopted their conventions without question.

As tana such as these were always custom-made in that period, care had to be taken to protect them from damage, since replacements were expensive.

**This makes use of the same glaze commonly used on red-Raku chawan (though, by the Edo period, the glaze had been refined to the point where it was virtually colorless, allowing the color of the clay body to show through unchanged). Here, however, a refined white clay was used (rather than red clay, or natural clay covered with a red slip made of clay mixed with powdered red iron oxide [Fe₂O₃], the clay modifying the intensity of the red color) to produce white pieces. The crackles naturally turn black when exposed to moisture.

²Daisu no furo no ashi wo motte shiru-beshi　[臺子ノ風爐ノ足ヲ以テ知ベシ].

Daisu no furo no ashi wo motte shiru-beshi [臺子の風爐の足を以て知るべし] means “accordingly, the legs of the furo (that is arranged) on the daisu (should adhere to the same orientation), (you) should understand.”

³Shoku-dai-tō mochiron, hitotsu-ashi wo shōmen yori miru-yō ni kazaru　[燭臺等勿論、一ツ足ヲ正面ヨリ見ルヤウニカザル].

Shoku-dai-tō mochiron [燭臺等勿論] means “naturally, with things like candle-sticks....”

Hitotsu-ashi wo shōmen yori miru-yō ni kazaru [一つ足を正面より見るように飾る] means (such things) should be displayed in accordance with (the idea that) one foot should be the front, when (the object is) viewed (by the guests).

In other words, the candlesticks should be oriented so that the single leg faces the guests. This is so not only when the candlestick is arranged on an altar or oshi-ita [押板] (here this word is used to mean a small table set up as a temporary altar in front of a Buddhist image), but when it is placed in the tokonoma, and also set out on the floor of the tearoom (such as during the meal, or when the bowl of koicha is passed from the host to the guests accompanied by a candlestick).

⁴Butsu-zō chū-son ni sonaetaru-kokoro nareba, futa-ashi wo shōmen [h]e shite, e no kata [h]e hitotsu-ashi wo mukae shikaru-beki nari nado iu-hito ari　[佛像中尊ニソナヘタル心ナレバ、二足ヲ正面ヘシテ、繪ノ方ヘ一ツ足ヲ向カヘ可然也ナド云人アリ].

Butsu-zō chū-son [佛像中尊] means the central image* (in a Buddhist trinity).

Butsu-zō chū-son ni sonaetaru-kokoro nareba [佛像中尊に供えたる心なれば] means “if (we) are thinking that (the incense, light, and flowers) are being offered to the central image in the (trinity of) Buddha images†....”

Futa-ashi wo shōmen [h]e shite [二足を正面へして] means “‘then two feet should be placed as the front....

E no kata [h]e hitotsu-ashi wo mukae shikaru-beki nari nado iu-hito ari [繪の方へ一つ足を向かえ然るべきなりなど云人あり] means “‘...so that one foot faces toward the painting is the appropriate way,’ and so on -- there are people who say (this kind of thing).” __________ *Usually either Shakamuni or Amida, or Kannon. Amida was more common in the Ashikaga period (since chanoyu was based on the teachings of the Ichi-nen ikkō shū [一念一向宗], the Amidist Sect of Buddhism that had been imported from Korea); but from the Edo period, an image of Kannon, or less commonly Shakamuni, appears to have been preferred in the center.

Cf., the triptych of Kannon, Crane, and Monkey by Mùxī Fǎcháng [牧谿法常; 1210? ~ 1269?] (above), that is preserved in the Daitoku-ji in Kyōto.

†Here the connection with the classical teachings, as represented in the O-kazari ki [御飾記] (where the reference is to the arrangement of objects in the tokonoma of the room that will be used to serve tea) seems to have been forgotten, and the author appears to assume that the text is describing the arrangement of the objects on a Buddhist altar.

⁵Ō-naru kokoro-e-chigai nari　[繪ノ方ヘ一ツ足ヲ向カヘ可然也ナド云人アリ、大ナル心得違也].

Ō-naru kokoro-e-chigai nari [大なる心得違なり] means that is a serious misunderstanding.

⁶Oshi-ita no gu izure mo, so-shi butsu-zo-tō, sono hon-zon yori no rai-hai no hito ni tai-shite, kōro wo oki, nen-kō wo sase, kyōge-shi tamau-kooro nareba, ika ni mo hito-ashi wo shōmen ni shite oki nari　[押板ノ具イヅレモ、祖師佛像等、其本尊ヨリノ禮拜ノ人ニ對シテ、香爐ヲ置、拈香ヲサセ、教化シ玉フ心ナレバ、イカニモ一足ヲ正面ニシテ置也].

Oshi-ita no gu [押板の具] means the utensils (arranged) on the oshi-ita.

Oshi-ita no gu izure mo [押板の具何れも] means the utensils on the oshi-ita are always (handled in the following manner).

So-shi butsu-zo-tō [祖師佛像等]: so-shi [祖師] originally meant the founder of a religious sect, but by this point in the Edo period the designation was being used to mean the founder of a school of chanoyu (or one of the other traditional arts); butsu-zō [佛像], as above, means an image of the Buddha; -tō [-等] means things of this sort, objects of this class.

Sono hon-zon yori no rai-hai no hito ni tai-shite, kōro wo oki [その本尊よりの禮拜の人に對して、香爐を置]: sono hon-zon yori [その本尊より] means from that central figure (the image of the principal Buddha-form, or that of the founder who is being revered here); rai-hai no hito [禮拜の人] means the person/people who have approached the altar to venerate (the image); ni tai-shite [に對して] means toward (the people who have come to do reverence to the image); kōro wo oki [香爐を置] means the kōro is placed. In other words, the focus of the kōro is shifted from the image that is being honored toward the worshiper who approaches the altar to express his veneration through the act of sprinkling incense on the burning piece of charcoal in the censer with his own fingers (the significance of this was discussed in footnote 9, subnote “†,” in the previous post).

Nen-kō wo sase, kyōge-shi tamau-kokoro nareba [拈香をさせ、教化し給う心なれば] means if (the worshiper) offers incense with his own hand, this serves to edify his own heart....

Ika ni mo hito-ashi wo shōmen ni shite oki nari [如何にも一足を正面にして置きなり] means (therefore,) certainly one foot should be (arranged) as the front when (the kōro) is placed (on the altar).

Shōmen [正面], meaning the front, is the side facing toward the viewer, or, in this case, the person approaching the altar to perform his act of worship.

⁷Ka no futatsu-ashi shōmen ni suru setsu wo mochiiru-hito mo, iki-mono no tsura ha konatae muite, ashi bakari hon-zon ni mukaeru　[カノ二ツ足正面ニスル説ヲ用ル人モ、生物ノツラハコナタヘ向テ、足斗本尊ニ向ル].

Ka no futatsu-ashi shōmen ni suru setsu wo mochiiru-hito mo [かの二つ足正面にする説を用いる人も] means even the people who follow the opinion that the front is (the side with) those two feet....

Iki-mono no tsura ha konata [h]e muite [生物の面は此方へ向いて] means the face of the creature (on the lid of the kōro) is (oriented) so that it faces towards this direction.

Ashi bakari honzon ni mukaeru [足ばかり本尊に向える] means the foot alone faces toward the central image.

In other words, though those people who subscribe to the opinion that one foot is the front (and that it should be oriented toward the image of the Buddha) arrange the kōro in that way, they nevertheless turn the lid so that the little figure (usually of a Chinese lion, shīzi [獅子] or shishi) faces toward the viewer*. ___________ *Because, in Japan, it is considered extremely rude for the rear end of a person or animal to be arranged so that it faces the viewer.

⁸Ō-warai-suru-koto nari　[大笑スル事也].

Ō-warai-suru-koto nari [大笑いすることなり] means this (foolishness) makes (me) erupt in a loud laugh!

⁹Dōgu-tatami no san-jō mono ha izure mo izure mo sho-dōgu wo waga-mae ni shite　[道具疊ノ三疊モノハイヅレモ〰諸道具ヲ我マヘニシテ].

Dōgu-tatami no san-jō-mono ha [道具疊の三疊ものは] means with respect to the utensil mat of the three-mat room....

Izure mo izure mo [何れも何れも] means always, always*...; absolutely always....

Sho-dōgu wo waga-mae ni shite [諸道具を我前にして] means all of the utensils should be arranged so that they face toward my† front‡. __________ *The doubling makes it emphatic.

†Waga-mae ni shite [我前にして] should be understood to mean the utensils should face toward the host.

‡This is emphatically declaimed because, during the Edo period, certain schools had begun to arrange the utensils so that they faced toward the guests at all times -- including during the temae (the chaire and chawan were handled so that they were facing the guests).

The combination of a complete ignorance of the orthodox tradition, coupled with the notion that the iemoto is infallible, made it open season on the proselytizing of whatever nonsense came into his head (the purpose of which being always to do things as differently as possible from every other school based on the authority of so-and-so ancestor -- and when a thorough search indicated that so-an-so’s teachings could not be found, it was always declared that they had been lost in this or that calamity, an argument which the period of civil wars had conveniently made highly plausible to the chajin of the Edo period).

¹⁰Tsukau-kokoro no oki-awase nareba, izure ni sei wo ware ni mukaete oku-beki-yō nashi　[仕フ心ノ置合ナレバ、何レニ背ヲ我ニ向ヘテ置ベキヤウナシ].

Tsukau-kokoro* [仕う心] means the heart that is committed to the act of service.

Tsukau-kokoro no oki-awase nareba [仕う心の置き合わせなれば] means because this arrangement is an expression of one’s desire to be of service (to the guests)....

Izure ni sei wo ware ni mukaete oku-beki-yō nashi [何れに背を我に向えて置べきようなし] means in whatever circumstances, there is no case where the back (of something) should be placed so that it is toward me.

The argument that is being rejected is this: since the host is devoted to the sincere entertainment of his guests, there were people who argued that, since one of the ways the guests derive pleasure is from the utensils, then they should always be arranged and oriented to the best advantage, so they may enjoy them throughout the gathering†. But this is wrong. “Service,” here, means arranging the things so that the host can make the best use of them, because his being able to do so will mean that he can perform his various tasks effectively. Thus, when the things are oriented for the host’s convenience, he can make a better fire, and prepare a better bowl of koicha than where the utensils arranged for the guests’ visual pleasure. This is the point that the author wishes to emphasize. __________ *Today it would be tsukae-kokoro [仕え心].

†This is also an occasional point of contention regarding the arrangement of the utensils when placed out simply as decorations -- whether in a room through which the guests might pass (or where they might be asked to wait), or in a setting such as a museum where a small exhibit has been erected to resemble a tea room. In all of these cases, even though nobody will ever sit and use these things to serve tea, the utensils should nevertheless be oriented toward the place where the host would sit on the utensil mat. And if the guests want to appreciate them, then they should move into that seat (or as close to that seat as circumstances permit), in order to inspect the utensils, and the arrangement as a whole, appropriately.

2022 Masters (day-2): de certitudes bevestigen.

(21-Dec-2022)

>> 2022 Masters (live results ijf.org)

4 judoka’s op day-1, ook 4 Belgische judoka’s op day-2. Langs Vlaamse kant, bevestigde de énige hoop in bange dagen alweer (met brons); langs Waalse zijde werd het knap 2x een 5°-plaats !

Gaby Willems (°97; /-70kg; JC Andrimont; 19° WRL): 5° (3 own) - 1/16-fin: opent tegen Kelly Petersen-Pollard (°99; Gbr; 14°WRL): oud Europees kampioene bij de junioren (2019); sindsdien winnares van 2 WCups, en de laatste twee jaar 9x in het final block van een WTour [1x 2° & 3x 3°)] toch niet niks [in vgl.: Mina 7x (3x 3°) en Gaby 8x (4x 2° & 2x 3°)]. Qua palmares en ranking zijn Kelly & Gaby dus zowat mekaars evenknie. >> video : dat weerspiegelt zich deels ook in de wedstrijd, hoewel Gaby de kamp domineert en sterker blijkt op grond en in het doorsturen van haar tegenstander; en met dat laatste wint ze ook na 1′16″min in GS. - 1/8-fin: tegen Aoife Coughlan (°95; Aus; 7°WRL): zowat Australië’s huidige trots in het vrouwen-judo, en vooral de laatste twee jaar sterker geworden (niet ongewoon gezien haar leeftijd): 5° Masters’21 (Doha), en dit jaar 5° GSL TelAviv & 5° GP Zagreb; tenslotte, tot ieders verbazing, recentelijk finaliste op de GSL Tokyo; >> video : halfweg staan beide judoka’s al met 2 shido’s, telkens voor “grip avoidance”, maar Gaby wint het uiteindelijk terecht na een 3de shido voor passiviteit tegen Coughlan na 5′13″min. - 1/4-fin: tegen Lara Cvjetko (°01; Cro; 6°WRL): de huidige vice-wereldkampioene, waartegen Gaby in November al wel won op de GSL Baku; >> video : uitstekende start want na 8″sec leidt Gaby reeds met waza-ari (tani-otoshi); en na zowat een minuut, een offerworp van de Croatische die mislukt, met Gaby die goed volgt en haar in houdgreep neemt: waza-ari-awasete-ippon. Mooi dus, met 3 overwinningen tegen hoger gerankte judoka’s staat Gaby terecht in 1/2-finale ! - 1/2-fin: tegen leeftijdsgenote én vice-Olympisch kampioene Michaela Polleres (°97; Aut; 10°WRL): hun 5de tête-à-tête, en het staat 4-0 voor de Oostenrijkse... Ook nu lukt het niet tegen de fysisch sterke Polleres; een lage uchi-mata en sterke sturing van Michaela levert na 1′30″min waza-ari op; en na net geen 3′min sumi-gaeshi en waza-ari-awasete-ippon. - bronze: geen cadeau natuurlijk om hier Saki Niizoe (°96; Jpn; 3°WRL) te ontmoeten: oud winnares van de Masters (2018); 3°WK’22 en eerder deze maand winnares van de GSL Tokyo; >> video : gestreden voor wat ze waard was en de volledige 4′min vol gemaakt; na 30″sec stoort Gaby met de-ashi-barai, maar Saki neemt gewoon over met ashi-guruma (waza-ari); Niizoe heeft duidelijk last van een pijnlijke knie en dringt zelf niet langer aan; Gaby van haar kant geraakt niet door de defensie van de Japanse: 5° dus. Nu, niet getreurd, dankzij een excellent laatste kwartaal, klimt Gaby dit jaar mooi van #41 naar #15 op de wereldranking. Ze bevestigt dat ze, zonder tegenslagen, een certitude wordt voor de Olympische Spelen.

En als een side note: ondanks haar nederlaag in finale hier, Marie-Eve Gahié is volledig terug ! Het jaar in aanloop naar de Spelen van Tokyo was een disaster voor de Française, die uiteindelijk de strijd voor een plaats op de OG verloor tegen Margaux Pinot; maar blijkbaar staat de Europese kampioene 2022 er mentaal en judo-technish weer helemaal: op het WK verloor ze in 1/8-fin tegen Niizoe, maar hier nam ze dus revanche (in 1/4-fin) en won ze ook nog van Giovanna Scoccimarro (°97; Ger; 20°WRL) en Kim Polling (°91; Ned; 29°WRL).

Malik Umayev (°00; /-73kg; 36° WRL): out (0 own) Ook hij gaat mijns inziens zéker naar de Olympische Spelen, sinds hij afgelopen juni de beslissing nam om af te trainen naar de /-73kg. Komt dus van nergens op de WRL, maar staat ondertussen al mooi 36°, net voldoende om hier te mogen deelnemen. Brute pech wel want hij opent tegen Shakhram A(k)hadov (°96; Uzb; 24°WRL), die - zo zal achteraf blijken - de finale betwist (weliswaar verliest - op shido s3/s1) tegen Daniel Cargnin (°97; Bra; 19°WRL). >> video : een explosieve wedstrijd van beiden, die eindigt met ippon (sode) na 4′52″min.

Sami Chouchi (°93; /-81kg; 9° WRL): 5° (3 own) - 1/16-fin: opent tegen Abylaikhan Zhubanazar (°00; Kaz; 35°WRL ): pas dit jaar op de voorgrond getreden met 2x 5° op een GSL (Ulaanbaatar & Abu Dhabi) >> video : Sami wint met houdgreep na 2′50″min. - 1/8-fin: winst tegen Tim Gramkow (°97; Ger; 26°WRL): beloftevol bij de jeugd met 4x EK/WK-medaille, maar slechts een matig palmares als senior met sporadisch (3x) een WTour top-8 en als beste 3°GP Cancun (2018); >> video : een score van Sami met een ashi-waza beweging met nog 31″sec te gaan, brengt hem in 1/4-fin tegen Matthias... - 1/4-fin: in ‘de clash der Belgen’ altijd veel kans dat het uitdraait op een shido-verdict in het voordeel van Matthias, .. en dat was hier dus niet anders >> video : moet ook zowat uniek zijn in het judo dat er in een ‘binnenlands’ duel twee trainers op de coach-stoel zitten ;-). - repechage: interessante overwinning van Chouchi tegen Sotaro Fujiwara (°98; Jpn; 15°WRL): verloor in 2021 & 2022 telkens de kamp voor brons op het WK; dit jaar 1° GSL Paris & 3° GSL Tokyo; video : door een verkeerde posture, biedt Sotaro aan Sami een open doelkans en Chouchi kopt binnen met o-soto-gari; maar het is nog 3′min... één minuut later claimt Japan waza-ari (met hiza-guruma), maar terecht geen score denk ik, en Sami ontsnapt ook aan een houdgreep. Tenslotte, een overhaaste aanval van Fujiwara en een counter van Sami die wordt gehonoreerd met waza-ari ! das een opsteker natuurlijk. - bronze: tegen Alpha Oumar Djalo (°96; Fra; 16°WRL): Chouchi kwam hem tegen op twee EK’s (2018 & 2021), en telkens won hij... Maar Djalo werd wel 3° GSL Tokyo twee weken geleden... ; >> video : een explosieve Alpha Oumar vecht aan een hoog tempo, maar ook Sami krijgt kansen en scoort bijna op twee momenten; in GS tenslotte een o-uchi-gari van Djalo, die Sami probeert over te nemen, maar ook volgens mij gaat het punt terecht naar de Fransman. Helaas geen 4de brons dit jaar voor de sympathieke Waal (3° GSL Paris; 3° GSL Tel Aviv; 3°EK).

Matthias Casse (°97; /-81kg; 2° WRL; FY Boom/Schelle): 3° (3 own) heeft een ‘bye’ als 2nd seeded en start in 1/8-fin. - 1/8-fin: tegen Francois Gauthier-Drapeau (°98; Can; 13°WRL): vocht 5 final blocks dit jaar op een GSL (5° Paris; 3° TelAviv; 5° Budapest; 5° Abu Dhabi; 5° Tokyo), das dus best wel een mooi parcours. >> video : simpele wedstrijden bestaan er niet in 1/8-finales van een Masters, en Matthias moet de volledige 4′min aan de bak; scoort net halfweg meer door het verrassingseffect dan door de techniciteit van de worp, omdat François iets té “nonchalant” eenzelfde aanval opving, die hij weinige seconden voordien wél vlot afsloeg. Het vervolg van de kamp wordt verrassend genoeg gedomineerd door de Canadees, al vindt Gauthier wel geen enkele opening. En waar mogelijk vlucht Matthias weg in ne-waza; - 1/4-fin: tegen Sami Chouchi (°93; 9° WRL) dus (zie hogerop) >> video. de (vooral seoi-nage) aanvallen van Matthias zijn nadrukkelijker, meer expliciet en zadelen Sami op met 2 shido’s na 4′min; na 1′14″min GS krijgen ze dan beiden een shido voor “non-gripping”, een scheidsrechter-manier als een ander om een wedstrijd te beëindigen natuurlijk... - 1/2-fin: tegen Saeid Mollaei (°92; Aze; 3°WRL): en dus de #2 en #3 uit de wereldranking tegen elkaar; Saeid versloeg Matthias begin november in de finale van GSL Baku, en ook nu moest Matthias helaas het onderspit delven; onderling staat het nu 4-3 voor de Iraniër. >> video : de fysieke kracht gekoppeld aan zijn ‘kompacte’ vechtstijl zijn écht wel een troef van Mollaei. een sumi-gaeshi 30″sec voor tijd was het beste wat Matthias qua gevaar kon inbrengen; na 29″sec krijgt Saeid een 2de shido voor passiviteit en Matthias neemt nog nadrukkelijker het initiatief om Mollaei in het nauw te drijven; Saeid voelt inderdaad (terecht) het gevaar van die 3de shido, en moet wel komen; wanneer dan bij een volgende fase Matthias de dreiging voelt van die linker arm over de rug wil hij in verdediging naar grond, maar Mollaei kan hem doorsturen en scoort waza-ari ! Net op tijd voor hem want die shido hing écht heel dreigend in de lucht... - bronze: tegen Antonio Esposito (°94; Ita; 22°WRL): sinds midden-2019 heeft hij veel meer moeite om nog een top-8 uitslag te scoren, dus deze kamp voor brons is al een succes voor Antonio, en zijn beste resultaat dit jaar (op 8 tornooien), ná 3° GSL Budapest. >> video ; de gekende agressieve stijl van de Italiaan (met seoi-nage & sode) versus de beredeneerde aanpak van Matthias. Pas na 6′42″min valt de eerste shido (tegen Esposito) ! En na 7′40″min valt uiteindelijk de beslissing wanneer Matthias een morote seoi-nage van Antonio kan doorsturen en zelf scoort ! Mooie wedstrijd.

Uitsmijter: de finale /-81kg: Grigalashvili - Mollaei : boeiende wedstrijd waarbij de technisch betere judoka het haalt van de krachtige; de score na 13″sec GS komt er na een mislukte lage ko-uchi van Mollaei en Tato éénvoudig countert.
