carnation au time. am I already writing a fic for this? yes! is it going well? hell no! that’s why I’m on tumblr babey!
ANYWAYS WHERE WAS I. yes the girls. their first meeting is an absolute disaster, as we’ve established, but now they’re both Rather Attached to each other, and as they head to Shells Town, they get to bond a bit! Koby isn’t really going to lose that hero-worship ‘she’s an angel in human form’ mindset until later, so right now it’s mostly Luffy bragging about how strong she is, Koby getting nervous because she’s incredibly weak and oh no what if Luffy is disappointed? and instead of being annoyed that she’s weak, Luffy just… immediately vows to protect her from Everything and Everyone until she’s strong enough to do it herself.
fellas, Koby practically swoons.
also Luffy is the taller of the pair because I said so. Koby probably gets a little taller, but it ain’t by much, she’s like 5’5 to her Amazonian-built gf’s 6’6 (a rough estimate at best. I am terrible at estimates.). listen I just think it’s really funny for post timeskip Koby to still be a short pink lass, but now she’s a short pink lass who also happens to be able to break an island in half if she so pleases.

Tying the Knot. (Literally)
Summary: Ghost bends down to tie his shoe but you think he's proposing. Pairing: Ghost x GN!Reader
Warnings: none babey !1!!!1
AN: ayy this sucks booty cheeks and it's heckin short but i thought it would be funny. relax from the angsty au's and have a quick laugh ha ha ha
~~~~~~~~~
“Oh my god… Simon. Yes. Yes! A million times yes!” You exclaimed happily, jumping up and down in your spot. Your eyes were watering at the sight of Simon on one knee before you. You were too excited to even let him ask you, too excited for your fantasies to become a reality. You have been wondering when he would pop the question. After all, you’ve been together for years. Gone through every hardship you two could face. There was no doubt that you two had an inseparable bond. It was only a matter of time before the wedding bells were ringing. Simon stared up at you wide-eyed, his gloved fingers holding the untied shoelaces he was about to re-tie before your little excited outburst. “Sorry love, m’ just tying my shoe.” He chortled, noticing the horrified expression quickly sprouting on your face. Your red cheeks and parted mouth was adorable to him, he couldn’t help but laugh a little more once he tied his shoe and stood up properly. 
Good thing it was so late at night and no one else was around in the park, otherwise you would’ve gone into a permanent hibernation. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid! God, what was I expecting? He’s not like the guys in the romcoms, he’s Ghost! He’s Simon for Christ’s sake! You were mentally face palming yourself at your eagerness to say yes to a question he never even intended on asking you in the first place. You were so lost in your own internal conflicts, you didn’t even notice Simon had gotten up close and personal, encircling his arms around your waist.
“Don’t beat yourself up. It’ll happen soon. I promise.” He pressed his lips to your forehead, a gentle reminder that he wasn’t judging you at all. You cooled down a bit from his reassurance, the corners of your lips turning upwards into a bright smile. Even if it wasn’t happening right now, you knew it would happen eventually. You two were meant to be after all.
Next time you’ll make sure he actually has a small box in his hand before you start jumping to conclusions though.

I have more questions about Daemon’s absolute monster dump truck, if you will indulge me.
Do you think he needs a reinforced saddle to ride Caraxes? I assume dragonrider saddles are custom made anyway, but do you think he has a larger saddle to accommodate the wagon he’s draggin’?
How often do you think that this big booty Judy blows out the back of his breeches with that fucking PAWG he’s walking around with? I can’t imagine they last long, unless they’re specially made.
It would be nice to see, in your Terms of Endearment series, Babey do something along the lines of “I refuse to argue with a man with a fat ass. Whatever you say, cake boss” (but worded appropriately for your fic)
🍑 #teamwesterosifatass
Absolutely! I’m always down to discuss Daddy Daemon’s doughy dump-truck with you. (Wow what IS my life-)
I absolutely think he has a saddle that is custom-made for his meat-cheeks, with extra support so they don’t clap in the wind; it’d also be lined with steel under the leather so that his fine ass doesn’t bust straight through. It’d be a near thing, though.
He’s DEFINITELY got custom-made breeches for his juicy rump steak - it costs the King thousands in gold every time he orders a new pair, because they need so much fabric for dat BUTT. Reckon they’re also reinforced so them cheeks can wobble without judgement.
Just for you, Babey’s touching his butt in the next chapter - I do believe she also gives it a rather brief bite to see if one of those jelly-stacks pop like a balloon. Much tasty. I absolutely love that line though, and would pay MONEY to see it incorporated unedited into a HotD fanfiction.
Much love to you all, #TeamWesterosiFatass!
Tumblr media
(Disclaimer: this is in no way meant to be an insult to Matt Smith or large derrières in any way. In fact, you could say this is just extra-unhinged fixation and praise. This is not a serious post, so please don’t panic; a joke between mutuals, bonded from our obsession with every asset Daemon has to offer.)

Izuna! <3
ayy helloooo
My NOTP for them: madara, for obvious reasons, but i'm okay if they're sandwiching someone (y). and touka. the trend of izutouka fics (from my admittedly small sample) just done him injustice my dudes. i know he has zero canon character other than his databook entry and 3 lines of dialogue but. not like this,,,,
My BROTP for them: MADARA we dont have enough madara izuna bro bonding moments. hikaku also good.
My OTP for them: tobiizu. just. them interacting. let them do sweet sweet mad science together babey. let tobirama hyperfocus on izuna to the point of invention. let tobirama be the moving goalpost and infuriating goal that makes izuna better. the Range on this. i just. the RANGE.
My second choice pairing for them: hashiizu! just. /breathes/ gorgeous tall massive hokage hashirama. feisty tiny anbu captain spymaster izuna. ranges funny hot spicy. just. hhhhhh
My fluffy pairing for them: mada&izu
My angsty pairing for them: tobiizu, it's fun when they're awful to each other. mada&izu. bc madara threw everything away on izuna's word and izuna admired his brother. they love each other so strongly any little thing can hurt.
My favorite poly ship for them: madatobiizu is responsible for me even being here but hashiizutobi is on my brain rn.
My weirdest pairing for them: im super basic and go for obvious choices lol i dont think i got anything.

how about yugi, joey, annnndddd bakura! :0
!!! oh boy this is going to be a long one and I can't cut on mobile so let's freaking GO BABEY
Yugi
My NOTP for them: Yugi/Rebecca, she's like 8 ????? it makes me uncomfortable enough when she flirts with him in the show but then people actually go and ship them y'all. he's short but he's still almost twice her age when they meet
My BROTP for them: Yugi and Joey, I'm here for Wishshipping, I love it I really do, but I like them as besties more than anything
My OTP for them: puzzleshipping
My second choice pairing for them: Yugi/Bakura, I love them so so so much. they can bond over goth shit, gaming, and the unique emptiness of sharing your body with someone for two years and then relearning how to be yourself that no one else on earth can really understand
My fluffy pairing for them: probably Yugi/Joey, they probably enable all of each other's worst habits but they have so much fun doing it
My angsty pairing for them: ooh boy it's definitely Yugi/Atem. I have literally cried for hours before because I thought too hard about them too late at night
My favorite poly ship for them: Joey/Atem/Yugi ot3 babey
My weirdest pairing for them: Yugi/Hanasaki LISTEN. they would be so goddamn cute together if Hanasaki hadn't been written out
Joey
My NOTP for them: I really don't like Joey/Mai :/
My BROTP for them: Joey/Mokuba !!!!!! I want to see Mokuba to hang around the nerd herd more and more and kind of adopt Joey as his new, unofficial Big Bro. I bet Joey's brotherly instincts always secretly wanted a lil bro to dunk on in a way he couldn't tease his sister and this kid loves his pranks
My OTP for them: Joey/Atem holy fuck this pairing is so underrated and I don't understand why. Atem breaking down and saying there's no point to defeating Marik if Joey is dead ???? that lingering eye contact in their famous handshake ??? the way the first time Atem takes over when it's umprompted and completely social is to tell Joey to cheer up using the same words he'd shouted at the Puzzle earlier ??????? I'm dying I'm already dead
My second choice pairing for them: either Joey/Yugi or Kaiba/Joey but that one has to be like. 5+ years post canon it's a long story
My fluffy pairing for them: Joey/Yugi !!!!! see way above lol
My angsty pairing for them: back to dragonshipping!!! I think they're both too proud and scared to say I love you and they both know what's going to happen eventually so they never really date. they make out a few times but never go further because Atem doesn't want to use Yugi's body that way before his partner gets to. it's just so much pining and unspoken affection and respect,, ,,
My favorite poly ship for them: Joey/Atem/Yugi
My weirdest pairing for them: okay I don't really have a weird pairing for Joey so instead I'd like to tell you my weirdest pet headcanon and it's that Joey is Jaden Yuki's estranged father
Bakura
(I'm using Ryou bc there's only one ship I have for Yami Bakura and it's really not even romantic lol )
My NOTP for them: I don’t think I have anyone specific I hate shipping Bakura with?? I’m not that into tendershipping, but I don’t hate it either
My BROTP for them: Bakura and Duke hang out and play all kinds of dice-based games and do deep conditioning hair masks together while they watch horror movies while everyone else is busy with Duel Monsters
My OTP for them: ok I mentioned it earlier so obviously Bakura and Yugi, I want them to start dating years after canon though,,,, they can bond over the loneliness of losing half your heart, good or bad, and help each other grow and recover. I think that Yugi tried to make himself grow up too fast after losing Atem, totally changing his wardrobe and trying to leave behind more “childish” interests like collectibles, and Bakura has a hard time getting back into gaming after Everything. but they can help each other rediscover their interests and passions together and be weird and domestic and cute. I think they’d both make good parents, eventually..
My second choice pairing for them: Bakura and Marik. again, they can bond over the trauma of being used to do horrible things to people they care about and help each other recover and grow. also they look REALLY pretty together
My fluffy pairing for them: Bakura and Yugi!
My angsty pairing for them: also Bakura and Yugi!!
My favorite poly ship for them: lmfao well Yami Bakura/Ryou/Marik but
My weirdest pairing for them: probably Bakura and Tristan, I wasn't a fan of it really until I started working on fleshing out my Darkest au and they just kind of naturally ended up together and it's really bittersweet and cute,,,

Okay for the bingo I've lost track sorry if you've done them
Bakugo and Deku
Kirishima and Bakugo
Mina and Sero
Hagakure and Ojiro
Tokoyami and Jiro
That's a lot don't feel obligated to do all of them lol just curious 🤷‍♀️
honestly i'm losing track too lol but you included my otp <3 (KiriBaku)
BakuDeku was done here!!
KiriBaku (my loves <3) were done here!!
Tumblr media
Babeys <3 Another ship I haven't really thought of tbh. They have bestie vibes to me, but I still see the hype.
Tumblr media
ngl i love these two! #335 scared me but they're BACK IN BUSINESS BABEY!! I want nothing but the best for these children.
Tumblr media
Another pair of bffs turned partners. They absolutely had midnight bonding sessions of listening to their favorite bands. For sure sometimes just play music and enjoy each other's company w/o talking or anything. Tokoyami encourages Jirou to sing/play constantly, and Dark Shadow complains whenever she's not there (Shadow 100% insists he likes Jirou more... it's half true).

*quickly sends you an ask* Mey Rin for the ask game please frien?? 🥰🙏
Sure thing! 🥰
1. My first impression of them. Sweet and adorable, albeit rather klutzy.
2. When I think I truly started to like them (or dislike them, if you've sent me a character I don't like). I liked Mey Rin right off the bat (the Phantomhive servants add a lot of heart to the storyline), and that appreciation only increased when she revealed her badass sniper skills during the circus arc! I love it when kind characters also have a ferocious side. 🔥
3. A song that reminds me of them. “almost home” by mxmtoon (which I first heard on @catraears ‘s wonderful Mey Rin playlist here on Spotify)
4. How many people I ship them with. Grelle, Sebastian, Hannah Annafellows, Paula, Agni, Ronald Knox, Madame Red (the three red ladies could make a very cute polycule!)
5. My favorite ship of them. Grellerin, because the vibes are immaculate. You have Grelle helping the maid embrace her femininity after a childhood and adolescence spent stifling it, and offering Mey Rin a passionate romance that surpasses anything found in the pages of her novels. You have Mey unconditionally loving and staunchly supporting Grelle, affirming the reaper’s identity even when so much of the world refuses to understand her. If they fought side-by-side, death scythe and rifle at the ready, these queens would be an unstoppable force! Sebagrellerin is also great…the perfect bisexual trio. 💖💜💙
6. My least favorite ship of them. I seem to recall spotting some nasty nonsense like Mey Rin/O!Ciel in the AO3 tag a while ago; anything like that is a hard pass from me, for obvious reasons. 🤢
7. A quote of them that you remember. “I obey young master’s command to the letter! To greet my master in a tidy manor every day—that is a maid’s duty. The housemaid shall purge the filth from this manor!”
8. Your favorite outfit of them. This dress from the official Gfantasy Sebamey cover!
Tumblr media
9. Your least favorite outfit of them. Mey Rin looks fantastic in any outfit Yana chooses for her! 💕
10. Describe the character in one sentence. Though she presents a cheerful countenance by day, the Owl bares her talons by night!
11. What’s the first thing you think about when thinking about the character? How cute she is and how badly I want to cuddle her. 😭
12. Sexuality hc! Bisexual. 💖💜💙
13. Your favorite friendship they have. Her bond with the other servants; I’m a sucker for the trope where outcasts and misfits join together to create a little found family. 🥰
14. Best storyline they had. Her backstory in the maid arc. Those chapters gave us a better understanding of the harsh times that shaped her into a fearsome markswoman, as well as her resilience and ability to retain a beautiful soul despite those trials. Mey Rin’s come a long way from the bleak life in which she was trapped, which made it even more rewarding to see her thrive in the present!
15. Worst storyline they had. I wish she’d been aboard the Campania during the luxury liner arc. It would have been epic to watch her take out those bizarre dolls! 😈
16. A childhood headcanon. When she felt sad or discouraged, child!Rin would hum fragments of the tunes her mother used to sing to her in order to calm herself down.
17. What do you think their first word was? The Chinese word for “flower”
18. How do you think they were as a kid? (Like, were they shy, noisy, wild, etc). Based on the glimpse of babey Mey in canon, I’d say she was a naturally sensitive child forced to toughen up fast in order to eke out a living on the unforgiving London streets.
19. The most random ship you've seen people have with them. Come to think of it, I haven’t seen many ships involving Mey that were too bizarre, though I’m sure those crack pairings exist somewhere!
20. A weird headcanon. Maybe not weird, but spooky…Mey Rin loves telling ghost stories with the Bard and Finny on long winter nights, even though she often ends up scaring herself in the process. 😂👻
21. When do you think they were at their happiest? Those times at the manor when there are no attacks or other catastrophes to worry about, and she was free to enjoy picnics, fun outings in the city, and other bonding moments with the rest of the Phantomhive household.
22. When do you think they were at their lowest? Working as the Qing Bang’s assassin. Mey was surviving, but she wasn’t living.
23. Future headcanon. Partially as a consequence of working with her during their undercover mission, Mey Rin eventually becomes good friends with Ran Mao. At one point, the other woman gifts Mey a panda plushie identical to her own, which the maid treasures.
24. What do you think is a secret they have that they never told anyone? The exact number of people she’s killed over the course of her work. That death count comes with the territory, but Mey Rin doesn’t like to dwell on it.
25. When do you think they acted the most ooc. Her character’s been pretty consistent (at least in the manga), though I wish Yana had let her show her true colors earlier on in the story.
26. When do you think they were being "themselves" the most? After becoming a maid, because she could finally express her identity as Mey Rin, rather than being callously treated as Rin, valued only for her keen eyes and deadly aim rather than her personhood.
27. If they could meet a character from another show/movie/etc, who would be the most fun for them to meet? I’d love to see an AU where she could interact with Jeanne from Vanitas no Carte because they have a lot in common—wonderfully endearing ladies who also have an intense side, past trauma, a well-deserved reputation for being frighteningly talented at putting enemies six feet under, in service to a young master who offered them a brighter future, etc. I just think they should eat macarons together and be besties. :’)
28. The most unnecessary thing they ever did? Nothing really comes to mind? 🤔 Anything my girl does is significant to me! 💖
29. How do you think they would be as a parent? (and if they are a parent, how do you think they would be if they weren't?) An amazing mom. Since she’s prone to anxiety, Mey could definitely benefit from a partner to lend a hand (raising kids is stressful work), but her fierce protectiveness and warm, affectionate demeanor would carry the day more often than not. She’d be patient and gentle, and give the best hugs!
30. The funniest scene they had? Her stunned reaction to Finny’s spine-breaking tackle! 😂

Maybe hc's or anything on musa and Aisha's friendship? I'm sad that later seasons drop that from what I've seen, they were such good besties :'( Also really weird how they're pushing tecna as musa's bff now and on the site they paired Aisha with flora?? Although there's some interesting dynamics there too, what with the cloud tower exchange and Aisha breaking into RF for flora. Feel like they should have had a conversation about that later, since Aisha was mainly doing it bc she was desperate for friends, what do you think? Sorry this ask is a mess 😅
OH I have so many thoughts about that. Winx Club is like,, super weird in that obviously all the characters are besties but they still need A Best Friend? So Bloom's paired with Stella, Flora's alone, and Musa's paired with Tecna. Then Aisha comes in so naturally, they have to pair her with Flora since she's the only one alone. But then they like,, didn't stick with that? Instead of focusing on Aisha's relationship with Flora, they focused on Musa? And Musa's scenes didn't focus a lot on Tecna in s2? So now you have Musa and Aisha being besties? But that leaves Tecna and Flora who are even less besties at the time? It's such a weird situation.
Aisha also bonded a lot with Bloom at that time but since Bloom already had Stella, them being Thee Best Friends obviously wasn't possible. But that didn't happen with Musa because Musa and Tecna's relationship wasn't as built up as Solarflare's. So now Aisha is in limbo where she's besties with Musa and Flora and occasionally gets shipped with Tecna. In my humble and very correct opinion, Aisha just has all the besties because everyone loves her the end.
Headcanon Time Babey!!
obviously, aisha and musa bonded quite a bit over music (literally canon)! i like to think that kept going even after they became besties :) so they listen to music together, stay awake for comebacks together, go to concerts and clubs, and just share their common interests within the music and dancing realm
speaking of dancing, they still go out dancing! sometimes it's them alone and sometimes the others will join, but at least once a week they go out dancing together. during those really high stress missions when they're too tired and don't have the time to dance, it actually impacts their mental health a lot.
aisha got musa hooked on androsian style salads! they always taste so fresh and the flavors are so bright that they just make moods better. they're also packed with a lot of nutrition no matter what you put in them so they're a good before and after dance treat.
musa does not care for regular exercise at all and it's a pain to get her to even walk into a gym. now she's stuck in a group full of exercise and yoga buffs and aisha laughs at her pain constantly
musa wrote a song about aisha. no i will not elaborate
actually yes i will. so basically, it was all about their friendship and how she grew up feeling so alone, doubting that she would ever have a friendship like that. musa always looked at the relationships people around her had and eventually, she convinced herself that she would never experience something so good and wholesome. of course, musa feels the same way about all of the winx, but her relationship with aisha sparked something so special in her. musa never actually told aisha which song was about her, but she figured it out (and yes she cries listening to it).
musa was actually the first winx girl that aisha formally introduced to her parents! they already knew she was hanging out with them and it was pretty early in their friendship when aisha was called to andros and they "encouraged her to bring her new friends". they weren't being mean or snobby or anything... they just wanted to meet the group that directly got involved in a war and stopped said war! aisha was able to bring musa along (musa being very confused that she wasn't bringing fellow princess stella) and
they absolutely loved her!! musa was respectful and knew enough about how to act around royals that she didn't embarrass herself or say anything that would be considered rude. and honestly? how could they hate her when they saw firsthand how much aisha loved her? they hadn't seen aisha laugh so freely in years! they love that aisha was able to form such special bonds with the winx :')

ok bit of that sweet sweet info on how they all met
ro and pat met in the 2nd grade
clung to each other like koalas and never let go lmao
people often thought they were dating or had crushes on each other, cause its like that even in elementary school and junior high
(id know sadly) ((people often thought me and one of my friends were dating/had crushes on each other and we werent and it was so annoying))
sometimes,,,especially in 5th grade,,, they just met up with one another and talked about how annoying crushes were,,,
cause like, people were always talking about crushes and how cute and ‘hot’ these people were
and they didnt understand
like, they still dont know the line between attraction and affection
(im not projecting shuddup)
so they just talked about how confusing it was,,,and they bonded over having no crushes, at least none that they knew of
and it was nice cause they could just vent knowing the other would have no judgement
im crying now its pure
ok dee and lo met in 4th grade
cause dee wasnt exactly popular cause of his heterochromia, and some even made fun of his freckles.
little kids can be mean man
and lo was pretty socially awkward
he just wasnt that outgoing, pretty introverted, and just didnt talk to people
cause, honestly? it was scary
so the two kinda bonded over being outcasts, as sad as that sounds
like they just noticed each other avoiding the other kids
and idk they just somehow interacted
and clicked
suddenly they werent lonely anymore
because they had a friend
one that understood them, understood loneliness, and was also a left brain boy-
so yeah its wholesome too
then vee and re met each other in 1st grade
they seemed like an unlikely pair
a chaos monger, even at age 6 (or whatever first grade age is i forgot lmao) and a kid frightened by many things
but remus was actually mindful of virgil’s fear and made him laugh
and virgil pulled remus out of trouble, but also understood him
so they just became friends
stuck up for one another, caused chaos together, and pulled each other out of trouble
jzkfjazfjkajf my heart
as for how each group came together to form one whole crew?
dee and ro met each other in 6th grade with theater club
they became friends due to their inner drama geek
and bonded
and, like people do, introduced their respective friends to each other
so those 4 formed a group
pat, ro, and dee actually bonded rather well, but since lo was never good at social interaction, he felt awkward
so one time in the middle of 6th grade, he just felt like it was all too much and he was just on the outskirts, he sat at a lunch table alone, where the three couldnt see him
re and v just notice this kid eatin lunch alone
like the gremlins they are, plop down and start making conversation
mostly remus, but virgil popped in sometimes
lo was startled, as one would be, but eventually warmed up to them, finding them actually pretty funny, and chaotic just like him
so he came out of his shell even more
eventually the other three find him, questioning as to why he didnt sit with them (more so concerned, not like jealous, because lo usually sits with them and they didnt want him to feel bad)
and lo just kinda mumbles he’ll tell them later
the three notice vee and re and are like ‘huh’
but then lunch bell rings and they gotta go to their respective classes
later lo explains his reasons, they explain that it wasnt the case and they were sorry for making him feel like that, while lo assures him that part of it was his own self’s fault, cause sometimes he overanalyzes stuff
but yeah v and re start slowly integrating themself into their group
and by the end of 6th grade
they were all a group
and you know what happened from there
chaos crew babey

headcanons for Saburo becoming friends with a quiet kid who is really earnest and caring? like they're not good at confrontation at all but they know how to support him and bring up his confidence please? babey really needs friends ;w;
━━ ∘◦ ☆ ◦∘ ━━
Tumblr media
Pairing: Saburo Yamada x reader
Genre: Fluff
Warnings: None
A/N: This was so precious, I need Saburo to have more friends honestly. Give him the love and support he deserves! Enjoy~
⋘ ──── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ──── ⋙
since you were one of the more quiet kids in the class, Saburo had never spoken to you despite the two of you being in the same class for years
eventually, the two of you were placed on the same school project and you ended up having to work together on it
Saburo had expected to have to do all of the work like he usually did on school projects, but he was surprised to find that you were actually a hard worker and did your fair share of the work
after the project was over, the two of you continued to talk and over the school years, eventually became good friends
Saburo was hesitant to make friends with anyone at first, but there was something about how thoughtful and hard-working you were that made him want to spend more time with you
your friendship is incredibly endearing and meaningful to the both of you in very different ways
Saburo is someone who always speaks his mind and won’t hesitate to act when he knows it’s the right thing to do
as someone who’s not very good at confrontation, you would be in awe of Saburo’s ability to stand up for what he believes in and you would strive to be more like him in that way
on the other hand, you take on the role of being Saburo’s rock
whenever he’s conflicted about his own identity and how deeply it’s rooted in his brothers’ identities, you’re always there to help pick him up
you always ensure him that he is his own person with his own aspirations and personality and that he can love his brothers and look up to them while still taking on his own role in life
whenever Saburo beats himself up for not being perfect or for letting himself down, you always support him and tell him that nobody is perfect and that everyone struggles with different things
although it’s difficult for Saburo to deal with kindness and self-validation at first, you keep reassuring him over and over again and eventually he begins to have more self-confidence 
one time you were talking about some really deep trauma of his and he ended up crying and made you promise not to tell anyone...it honestly just made the bonds of your friendship stronger
it’s a process to help him be kinder to himself, but having someone as kind and honest as you by his side makes him want to be the best version of himself possible
“Y/N, why are you so quiet all the time? You should talk more in class, you’re obviously smart and know all of the answers.”
“Ah, it’s not as easy for me as it is for you, Saburo...”
most of the time whenever the two of you hang out, it just ends up being hours of talking about anything and everything under the sun
you definitely hang out the most at the library and at the local park because there are so many places to sit and chat
he ends up becoming friends with a lot of your friends as well and although he acts like he doesn’t care, he’s actually very thankful to have so many people that want to spend time with him
even though he get’s low-key annoyed when anyone else calls you their best friend because OBVIOUSLY he is your best friend
you’re his best friend in the world, and even though Saburo might never say it out loud, his school years might have been much more difficult, maybe even impossible, without you by his side
he definitely went back and gave a thank you card to the teacher that put you two together on that class assignment

here’s a hot take for the original sherlock holmes stories: lestrade/gregson. rivals to lovers babey
oh that is a spicy take. a study in scarlet lestrade/gregson rivals to lovers
“Gregson is the smartest of the Scotland Yarders,” my friend remarked; “he and Lestrade are the pick of a bad lot. They are both quick and energetic, but conventional—shockingly so. They have their knives into one another, too. They are as jealous as a pair of professional beauties. There will be some fun over this case if they are both put upon the scent.”
some fun, indeed...........................
Lestrade and Gregson glanced at each other with an incredulous smile.
bonding over holmes’ boldness....

Gentle Anon here! I was making more of Babey II in the Game of Thrones world and I just had a funny thought like what if the whole Targaryen Family during ASOIAF (Rhaenyra, Babey, Daemon, Viserys I, Alicent, Etc) are shown the future and Babey II is there, showing how much of a warrior she is, the opposite of their Babey. They’d also see her three children and how they restarted the Targaryen line.
I also think that since it turns out that in Old Valyaria, that they gained their dragon bonding abilities through sacrifice, what if Babey II and Daenerys decide to do that for the Targaryen line (but maybe not innocent people but what if they were like people who done serious crimes like murderers or though who try to do treason)
This is cool! Prophetic dreams are common in the Targ family, I believe, so I could actually maybe see Babey or Helaena having one of those and seeing Babey II perhaps? That'd be real interesting.
I don't actually know much about the Old Valyrian methods of hatching dragons, though the idea of sacrifice being a part of that is interesting. I've sorta had this vague idea that the high mortality rate of Targ women in childbirth (and the babies also) might be related to this; like, is this the 'sacrifice' being made for the sake of possessing the ability to bond with dragons? Is this how dragons are hatched with such regularity by the Targaryens? I reckon this could have some mileage, lol. Not sure if the death has to be personally meaningful to the "sacrificer", so to speak, or if any old dudebro would do. And is there a time-frame on that sacrifice? Like, in theory, could Dany attempt to invoke the Masters she has killed in Slavers' Bay as sacrifices, or does there have to be specific intent involved? Hm, questionsss. I do like the idea of the pair restarting the Targaryen dragon line through this kind of questionable means - like, these people are probs gonna be executed anyway, might as well serve a purpose.
Thanks, Gentle Anon! Hope you're doing groovy!

“First of all, this blog is my new favorite thing. Second, can I please get Taichi trying to form a band with the other Mankai company members?”
(via @primeministerofantarctica )
mod note: im so sorry this took so long, this prompt was giving me a hard time, so i just kinda forgot about it.. but!!!! this is my first request, so i had to answer it!!! ill try to be more active in the coming future!!!
- let’s be real. taichi’s main reason behind wanting to form a band is because he saw a dude at school serenading a girl with a guitar. taichi is a simple man. a simp, if you will
- matsukawa is *ecstatic* at the idea. he’s all over this taichi, helping him pick out potential instruments, talking to him about rythmn and beat, and maybe even helping him songwrite
- taichi ropes in sakuya, masumi, muku, misumi, kazunari, azami, homare, and guy for the band
- muku and sakuya joined because they’re too nice to say no to taichi and matsukawa, especially with how excited they look!!!
- homare wants to wax lyrical about whatever the fuck, misumi just wants to play the triangle, and guy got dragged in via citron
- however, tensions rise as not all bandmates can agree on what music to preform
- masumi wants a more classic rock n’ roll sort of deal, particularly love ballads about the director exclusively
- citron wants to play traditional Japanese music!!! he wants to use his taiko drum :)
- homare requires only *classical, romantic* music for his poetry. Homare finds art in everything, but he only wants orchestral babey!!!!
- Azami wants hip-hop and rap, something fresh and edgy!
- sakuya, muku, kazu, and guy just want everyone to please stop arguing guys please
- misumi’s fine with whatever as long as he gets to play his triangle
- sakyo just wants all of them to shut the fuck up so he can play his old man jazz records in silence
- personally, taichi wants something lovey-dovey like masumi, or high energy and fresh like azami!
- but he and matsukawa both know that there’s only one way to settle this.
- BATTLE OF THE BANDS BABEYYYYYYYYYYYYY
- it’s a competition for the ages: the main mankai band split into factions, battling for the genre choice
- the teams are as follows: azami, taichi, and masumi for rock n roll/hip hop combo, homare and misumi for classical, citron and guy for traditional, and sakuya, muku, and kazu doing a pop/party music vibe
- matsukawa, Izumi, and Akito Taninaga, the summer troupe ensemble guy who the manager recruited at a music store act as judges
- should they be using this time to prepare for upcoming rehearsals and shows? Yes, but Izumi handwaves it away as group bonding time and potential acting experience if they ever put on a musical
- during this whole shebang itaru gets constant war flashbacks to middle school where his parents forced him to play clarinet in the school band. he’s never getting back all those hours he spent cleaning his fucking reeds. needless to say he spends the afternoon curled up with rhythm games
- tsumugi also played in his middleschool’s orchestra, but has much fonder memories of his time spent. like that one time tasuku came to visit him during rehearsal and somehow got his head stuck in a tuba
- this exact memory is why tasuku also won’t be showing up to the grand battle. tsumugi would not stop fucking bullying him about it
- the stage is set. the rest of mankai sans itaru and tasuku sit in the audience. the performers take center stage.
- misumi and homare’s is well. a misumi and homare performance. homare recites his poetry while misumi dings his triangle every so often. he gets too excited though, and starts dinging the thing at maximum velocity, so izumi calls the performers off before they could permanently damage mankai company’s collective eardrums
- citron and guy’s performance is surprisingly... really good??? like they got traditional costumes and everything... call citron whatever you want but goddamn when he goes all out for something he goes all out
- sakuya, muku, and kazu’s act is!! really nice!!!! whenever muku or sakuya got strange fright from singing, kazu would hype them back up again from behind his booth
- muku: “s-senri no michi mo saisho no ippo k-kara...”
- kazu, adding an obnoxious beat drop: “YEAAAAAAAAAA MUKKUNNNNNNNN!!!!”
- they’re a little off key at times, but they tried really hard, and that’s all that matters!!!!
- and then. it’s taichi, masumi, and azami. they all try to look appropriately badass, taichi slicking his hair back and azami in his best pair of doc martins, but the mood is kinda ruined when masumi has to ask kazunari if he could borrow his equipment
- “what. do you people think i own that shit?”
- “WHAT WERE YOU USING DURING REHEARSAL????”
- “he was also using my equipment then!”
- anyways. masumi gets his shit together, taichi slings the guitar he loaned from matsukawa on his back, and azami turns his mic on. and together they preform only the most hardcore song:
- the g-anthem of y-city
- (it’s was azami’s choice. that boy is a mtc stan first human second.)
- can azami rap? of course not. can taichi play acoustic guitar to a rap song? obviously no. can masumi look away from Izumi and focus on his sheet music? what do you think they are, professionals?
- azami calls himself azami-sama and banri doubles on the floor crying laughing
- overall, team badass rock is all over the place. it’s one adorably awful garage band.
- in a surprise turn of events, citron and guy are claimed the winners, since their act was technically the best. even still? no one really wants to do a traditional japanese band, and most of the volunteers learn that maybe they better off sticking to acting, so the mankai band ends before it could even start
- taichi, of course, is completely dejected, his serenading dreams crushed.
- matsukawa, tho, isn’t about to let him give up so easily, so instead of forming a whole mankai band, he just decides to teach taichi privately about serenading hot babes via guitar
- taichi has a lot to learn, but he’s picking it up fast, according to matsukawa!!! there’s plenty of lady friends in his future... maybe.

Episode 12 - The Little Mermaid
Let’s Talk About JSHK Anime #3
Warning: Manga spoilers for The Little Mermaid arc, The Clock Keeper arc, and chapter 64!!! (just a bit, skip point no. 5, 6, and 10 if you don’t want to get spoiled) Also … this ended up way longer than I intended.
Tumblr media
Well that was one heck of a feels trip. It’s probably my new favorite episode, just because everyone is here being wholesome lmao.
This is mostly hananene meta I ain’t even gonna lie.
Before we begin, shout out to Black Canyon, our newest anime cutie pie. Just look at him, folks. Just chilling with his sunflower seed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He has no idea the kind of life his owner leads.
I said before that the best part of episode 12 is how it made Daydream worse, so now I’m gonna ramble about it.
“Maybe different species can’t understand each other after all.”
“Maybe it would be better if I were an apparition too.”
This is my favorite part of the episode. And no, not in the sense that I want Nene to die just so that she and Hanako can be together. But because of how Lerche actually explored deeper what was said only once in the manga.
Well, both in the manga and anime Nene ended up accepting the mermaid’s blood because of her desire to be popular, but the anime decided to revisit what she said earlier in the episode.
Tumblr media
Not only did that make her decision kinda less selfish, it’s also just … sad. Thinking that your friend, someone you really cared about, doesn’t trust you enough to tell you things about themselves, to the point where you’re willing to go to such lengths as turning into an apparition just to understand them.
And if you think about it, isn’t this part of her true wish? To have her feelings be reciprocated? Man I just realized that as I wrote this and I am mindblown.
Tumblr media
She thought she finally got her wish with Hanako. I mean, he said it himself in the first ep (”You wanted someone, anyone, to return your feelings, right? And as far as you’re concerned, sharing a bond with someone is the same thing, right?”). So it must’ve hit her really hard when she thought he didn’t trust her. Especially with all the wrong ideas the fishes were feeding her mind.
Tumblr media
Then we got this little flashback. At first I was like, “Girl, you really be thinking that he doesn’t care about you while recalling the moment he apologized to you and hugged you? Are you insane?”
But after some thinking of my own, it occurred to me. Maybe she was too used to having her feelings not reciprocated, she couldn’t believe it when someone finally did. Not to mention Hanako did kinda trick her with his fake confession a while back (heh, he’s not the only one with trust issues, eh?). And that just made the entire thing even sadder.
So when Nene said, “But I thought, if I were an apparition like you, I could get closer to you. Then, maybe I’d be able to understand you, Hanako-kun. Although I know I probably don’t mean anything to you.”
That was a harsh wake up call for Hanako.
(Btw even more full circle, Hanako brought up Nene’s wish to become human again in the first episode. Nice.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So. We got one daikon girl who’s afraid of not having her feelings reciprocated, and one ghost boy who’s afraid that daikon girl wouldn’t be his friend anymore if she knew about his past.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While in actuality, said daikon girl already decided she wanted to and would be his friend no matter what, and ghost boy had grown to care about her more than he thought he would.
He heard what she said to Tsuchigomori. He knew all about regret, too.  I mean, honestly, I think if she had said no, he’d let her walk away right then and there, no questions asked. But she didn’t.
Nene’s wish finally came true here. And the best part? It wasn’t the work of magic or curses. Just Hanako finally shoving his fear aside, offering himself as he was, and letting her decide.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And she still chose to be with him.
Heh. Lemme just. Sob for a bit.
Is my hananene trash brain reading too much into this? Idk. Maybe.
So props to the production team for managing to add even more weight to this arc. Which, they had to, since it’s the season finale and all. But I love what they did!
Onto my commentaries!
1. The KouNene
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Good shit. She was worried about him but he didn’t want her to worry so he just smiled it off? These two are precious. Thought they were gonna interact. Sadly not. Buuuut! (see point 12)
2. Hanako’s classroom visit
Tumblr media
He. Is. So. Adorable. Someone please take his babey license away he’s too dangerous.
Tumblr media
Hanako’s classroom visit is like my absolute favorite clingy Hanako moment, so I’m really happy I get to see it this season. Ugh. My kokoro. Hugging her from behind, that semi confession vibe … Smooth mf.
The Mokke brushing Nene’s hair!!! The radish hairdo tho lmao.
On a sidenote, as a history nerd I appreciate that they’re actually putting lessons in the background. And the teacher talked about Apollo 11 again??? While my boy was in the room? That ish both hurt and pleased me.
3. The Clock Keeper rumor drop
Tumblr media
Heeeeeehhhhh? What’s thiiiiiissss?
4. This freaking thing
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*flips table* Darn production team been knew I’m hananene trash how dare they do this to me.
And lookie here there’s Kodama chilling.
5. Fishies! (!!!manga spoiler for The Little Mermaid arc!!!)
Tumblr media
Pufferfish didn’t die. Well, good for him. Also I can’t believe they just call the other fish ‘yeah yeah’ lmao what the freak. Has it always been like that in the manga?
6. AOI AND AKANE (!!!spoilers for chapter 64!!!)
Tumblr media
I swear I did not intend this numbering coincidence.
*claps* Boi. Nene asking Aoi about cutting ties with someone she’s interested in? And then Akane just swooped in and say he’d rather cut his head off than cut ties with Aoi? What about getting impaled, huh, boy? Would that do?
The not-so-subtle call out to these two pairs’ parallel? BOI.
7. Nene and Yako
These two just chilling together having girl talk, and Yako let Nene pet her? That’s some adorable shit right there. Admit it Yako you like her.
Tumblr media
Yako also be really hitting home with what she said. It was extra heavy coming from her, considering what happened to her and Misaki. Boiiiiii.
8. Tsuchigomori
Tumblr media
Oh my God, his laughter. Just … oh my God.
Tsuchigomori in dad mode is always one of the highlights of the episode/chapter.
By the way, in this scene according to the sub, Nene asked Tsuchigomori who Tsukasa is. But she knew who he is already. Is it possible that the sub misinterpreted it? ‘Cause I think what she actually meant was, “What happened to him and Tsukasa-kun in the past?”
If someone who speaks Japanese could share their wisdom, please do!
9. The 5 pm bell and twilight
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Look how pretty they are!!!
Lo and behold, another important hananene interaction while the 5 pm bell plays in the background. Also, twilight? Y’all giving me Kimi no Na wa flashbacks.
“Twilight, when it’s neither day or night. When the world blurs and one might encounter something not human.”
Huh … kinda fits the ‘boundary’ concept but it still hurt.
Anyway they still had Hanako tell her what she already knew. And I did say in my ‘Walking Blind’ post that it’d be redundant. But since the episode kinda emphasized Nene’s desire to understand Hanako, having him actually tell her himself, even though she already knew it, was a big deal. It’s not about what she knows, it’s about him opening up to her. So I’m super cool with it.
10. The Broadcasting Club (!!!spoilers for The Clock Keeper arc!!!)
Tumblr media
I love how Natsuhiko and Sakura are actually decent people. When he told Mitsuba that he was free to choose to stay with them or not? That’s solid, man. Though, of course, Tsukasa might not be as kind.
Tumblr media
Speaking of, I know it couldn’t be anything else, but I’m still not sure if Tsukasa’s drawing was confirmation for season 2. Don’t wanna get my hopes up. Imma just enjoy what I currently have.
Kinda curious, though. Because Clock Keeper wasn’t Tsukasa’s doing. Maybe he was the one who released Mirai? But tbh I’d prefer if it wasn’t so. Because having more cases of supernaturals going loco without it being one of Tsukasa’s games is interesting, and kinda underlines the need of The Seven Wonders to keep supernaturals in check.
11. Kodama just chilling
Tumblr media
12. The Adventures of Minamoto and the Summer Vegetables
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You go, Kou! I’m rooting for you oh my God you’re so precious.
And look at that ikemen smile! Him supporting Kou is just top notch sweet y’all I can’t-
Tumblr media
Ngl this was the biggest surprise of the episode. Teru finding out that summer vegetables = Nene? Broooooo. Interesting. I don’t think this little addition warrants any changes to their future interaction, so it should be safe. Clever replacement, too, those veggies.
It’s so sweet that Nene delivered those veggies to Kou! Just imagine the Minamoto family having veggies for dinner. Awww.
(Also, Nene wrote her name in hiragana instead of kanji. Is that a reference to how bad Kou is with kanji? Lol, so sweet)
13. The Coda!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Look at him. Just look at him. Look how lovesick he is y’all I can’t-
THEY’RE SO ADORABLE.
All in all, I love this episode. Sorry for how long this post is. I’m just dealing with so many feels right now. Gaaahhhhh.
