Karaoke with teen nanami please 😊 He gets dragged into it!!
Hangout session with my crush
high school Au, no curses Au, just them having a normal life.
Note: This is such a good idea, tbh i was excited myself to write this! Also, Haibara is uhm.. almost forgotten here so, very sorry for that.
Tumblr media
You had a little crush on Nanami, but you tried to ignore your feelings for him. You just have the feeling that he won’t ever like you back since he doesn’t seem to be the type of person to be in love and plus, this feeling will probably go away, so whats the point?
“Hey guys, Let’s go somewhere after school!”
Haibara said as he took his lunch money out of his pocket. You and your friends are about to get out of class and go to the cafeteria for lunch.
“Actually, that’s not a bad idea. Im in.” Shoko agreed.
“Hey guys, you have to do your homework first, then we can go somewhere!” Utahime scolded.
“Womp womp” said gojo and geto.
“That sounds fun! Do you wanna come Ken-“ You were cutoff by the sight of Nanami successfully sneaking out of the chaotic classroom that is filled with the shouting of Utahime’s scolding.
“Uh- uhm.. Kento wait up!” You went out to chase Nanami, no one noticing.
“Kento, how could you walk out like that? Its rude you know.” You scolded him. He looks at you with an emotionless face and sighs in frustration.
“Utahime is right, maybe we should do our homework first.” “Come on! I doubt that you want to sing, so how about you do it in the karaoke room? Its just history notes anyway.”
You tried to make Nanami reconsider but he was having none of that.
——————————————————————————
The bell rings and the teacher dismisses the class.
“Finally! Schools over. It felt like it had took 5 years of my lifespan. Now let’s go to that karaoke guys!” Gojo said to his friends, excited for the karaoke outing.
Your friends, surprisingly including Nanami, exits the school together. Everyone taking their bikes. Not knowing that Nanami will not be participating except for you. You sneak up behind Nanami who is just standing there, since he walks to school, he doesn’t have a bike.
“Boo!” You tried to scare him but to your expectations, he wasn’t scared… at all.
“Come! You can hop on my bike. Or… If you don’t want people to mistake me as your girlfriend, you can ride Haibara’s.” You chuckled at the last sentence. Nanami tried to walk away and you’ve. had. enough. You dragged Nanami by his collar to force him on your bike, not realizing you were the center of attention.
“Woa, Nanami just got dragged by a girl!” Geto teased as he hits Gojo with his elbow to make sure he’s paying attention to what he’s pointing at.
“I don’t want to-“ “you- are- going- to- come- with us!” Successfully you made him sat at your bike’s passenger seat. Not wasting anytime you hop on your bike.
“Let’s go everyone! Y/N’s the lead!” Shoko shouted out to her friends.
——————————————————————————
In about 10 minutes or so, you and the rest of your friends have finally arrived to your destination. You get off your bike and grab Nanami’s wrist, pulling him in the karaoke.
“Hello! How many people?” The worker ask. Shoko handles the registration and finally it was time to pay. You take out your wallet from your backpack, about to take out your money but then Nanami taps on your shoulder: You look back at him as you make a “what?” face.
“I’ll pay you… you don’t have to pay back. Just consider this as a thanks for… uhm… everything” Nanami explained as Geto, Gojo and Shoko snickered in the background, Haibara and Utahime looking at them with one eyebrow up.
“Wow… That’s kind of sudden, but who am i to reject that offer? Thanks so much Kento!”
After you were all done with paying for the registration and finding your room, you finally get to rest and jump on the karaoke room sofa. Gojo wasted no time and looks for a song to sing on the tablet, Geto trying to push him away from the it since he wants to go first. Utahime scolding the two of them and Shoko just watches. Haibara is still looking around the room, amazed by the design.
You and Nanami were just… sitting. It isn’t unusual for Nanami to be very quiet but it is for you. To be quite honest you are a bit exhausted from paddling you bike since… you never really paddle it with a passenger on it, not to mention it being Nanami.
“So… are you actually going to sing? To be honest when i forced you on my bike i didn’t actually expect for you to not mind.” You said to break the awkward silence between you two.
“Oh… well, I don’t really have plans anyway and im done what needs to be done for school. So why not just tag along?” Nanami explained. But in his heart, it’s actually just because he wanted to spend some time with you and his friends, but more with you. It might sound selfish but hey he’s rarely selfish himself so why not have that personality trait once in a while.
“Okay everyone, we’re done picking the song. Let’s sing!” says Shoko as she grabs a mic. Everyone doing the same and wow what a coincidence, you were just about to grab yours just to realize that all of the available mics are taken by everyone.
“Oh.. I don’t have a mic.” You said disappointedly. “Here, you can have mine, i think i won’t sing that much anyway.” Nanami lends you his mic, but you don’t take it since its not often for him to go to hangouts, and you don’t want to ruin this for him.
“No! It’s okay… I’ll just sing without a mic!”
Gojo and Geto looks at each other with a “are you thinking what im thinking” face. “Hey! I have an idea! Why don’t you two share?” Gojo suggests with a smirk.
Nanami slightly blushes. Surprisingly he doesn’t hit Gojo for that and just did what he said. You on the other hand, thanked Nanami for being able to share the mic.
“Okay, Let’s do this!” Geto said as everyone cheered.
——————————————————————————
It had been 2 hours already and you were all ready to go. Packing everything up, making sure nothing and no one is left behind, they exit the karaoke room and finally the building.
“Good grief guys! See you guys tomorrow!” Says Gojo as he starts paddling his bike, Geto following not that long after. “Yea, That was really fun!” Haibara adds.
“Are you going to send Nanami home, Y/N?” Shoko asked you. “Yea, I was the one who dragged him here. And Haibara cant send him home because…. uhm.” You look at Haibara, hoping he tells you the reason.
“Oh, my mom told me to get stuff from a nearby convenience store. It might take a while and I don’t want to keep Kento wait for me. Again, thank you do much Y/N, and sorry again Kento, see you guys!”
“Okay then, get home safe, bye!” Utahime says before hopping on Shoko’s bike.
“Well, there they go. It’s been a long day, right Kento?”
“Huh? Oh, yeah.” Nanami seemed to be thinking of something but you didn’t thought much about it.
“Let’s go. I can’t be late or else my mom will think i got kidnapped or something, Hop o-“
“Wait, I’ll paddle the bike for you.”
As Nanami says that, you stare at him with confusion.
“Why all of the sudden?”
“You were very exhausted when we arrived here, so i figured it was because you had me as your passenger.”
“Oh, no no, please ignore that i think i was extra tired because of-“
“No excuses” Nanami says before taking your bike’s handles of your hands.
“Really, I don’t make offers unless i really want to do them. You know that Y/N”
“Oh okay fine…” You give up on trying to convincing him to just let you paddle the bike. You walked up to the said bike and sat on the passenger seat.
——————————————————————————
Nanami paddles your bike to his house. As he arrives, he gets off your bike and thanked you. Nanami opens the gate to his house and you left.
You finally arrived home, you immediately went into your room, locking the door and jumped on your bed, sighing in exhaustion. Your social battery is low, some sleep would help.
Ding!
Your phone vibrates, a notification from a group chat of your friends. You press the notification only yo be met with a picture of you and Nanami singing together.
Shoko: Look, Kento is smiling.
Utahime: Woah! Even do he’s just slightly smiling, it’s still a rare sight.
Gojo: When are you guys gonna be official
Geto: Let’s make them kiss
Haibara: Nanami! Congratulations! You didn’t tell me you were dating!
Nanami: No Haibara, I’m not. Ignore them.
Y/N: 😭😭😭
You laughed at their response. You were about to turn off your phone when suddenly another person send you a message. You once again open your messages and to your surprise, It was Nanami.
Nanami: Y/N, I want to take you out. Just the two of us.

THE RECEPTIONIST ☏
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
➤ (📞) GENRE: fluff, strangers to lovers | PAIRING: jay x fem reader | WC : 1.9k | SUMMARY: When you find your self crushing hard and constantly go to your local hospital just so you could see the cute receptionist again or in which the cute receptionist is amused by your antics and secretly anticipates your return.
SOO’S SMOL NOETY 📝:
𖤐 lowkey off topic but I’m quite embarrassed to say I’ve never seen these pictures of jay before... (#><) Like ive been stanning enha sine iland as well I don’t get it.. I came across this and was so shocked cuz how come I’ve NEVER SEEN THESE JAY PICS!!?? it’s just added an extra 5 years onto my lifespan (thank you to my man!! 🥰) + this is 80% proof read see a weird word? Erase it from your memory ❤️
Tumblr media
YOUR MOTHER WAS DRAMATIC. Everything little thing that happened, she would inflate out of proportion, just like today. When you called her and told her you had some odd rashes, she freaked out and arrived to your university accommodation within 10 minutes. You tried to reassure her that it wasn't deep, but she didn't want to hear it. Assuming the worst, she literally dragged you by your ear to her car and drove you to the hospital.
The whole thing was humiliating as your friends and anyone who lived in your section watched the whole interaction form their windows. You understand your mother wanted to make sure you were alright. Especially as you were the youngest sibling she always was extra mindful of you. But she was doing way to much for your liking. You just wanted to get this over with and go home.
Once you arrived you and your mother approached the counter and rang the bell so that a receptionists could be alerted. Soon a tall male appeared “ I apologise for the wait I had an important call.. what can I do for you miss?” You shot your head up once you heard the voice stepping closer and locking eyes with him .
For you, it was love at first sight. He was cute, he was handsome, and all of the above. You had never seen anyone as attractive as him in your 20 years of living. Who is this angel from above his jawline? I need him to cut me in ha- " y/n sweetie, why don't you explain your problem to the gentleman?"
Oh yeah..my rashes
“uh... I have some rashes uh... that are uh... spreading all over umm..my back” you internally slapped yourself for speaking like that and stuttering it's bad enough you showed up with your mum at your big age and now this..what was he supposed to think of you. It was difficult to concentrate on your words as his deep brown eyes were fixed on you.
He hummed as he scribbled something on his notes, “ladies please sit over there on the red chairs and make yourself comfortable I'll set you up with one of our doctors in a minute ” oh I'll make myself comfortable alright “pardon? ” You covered your mouth with your hands as you gasped, realising you had spoken out loud. Here I am again, embarrassing myself in front of him .
The male chuckled to himself before heading off down the hall.
Later that week more like 2 days after you found yourself at the hospital again Why? Because you were sick sick. Suffering from what? A bad case of I’m attracted to my hospitals receptionist syndrome and you needed an antidote quickly.So What perfect way to curs yourself by seeing the cause instead.
Plus you couldn’t focus at uni he lived in your head rent free and you didn’t even know his name. You wanted to talk to him again to hear his deep voice. Maybe you were obsessed ? Crazy? But you were crazy in love and needed to see him. So during your free you took the train and made your way to the hospital.
As you approached the counter you were met with an unfamiliar pair of eyes it was another receptionist. Where’s the sexy jawline dude who the hell is this old woman? “ umm excuse me ? Where’s the hot receptionist” the lady looked up from her paper and raised a brow eyeing you up and down “ if your a fan girl please excuse yourself out the hospital if your not actually sick “ tch she has an attitude “ uhh..im actually his girlfriend im here to drop somthing off ! I’ll be quick” you forced a smile as she squinted her eyes once more giving you a look as if searching for you obvious lie but she seemed to buy it “ I’ll call him for you stay here ” she disappears into the back and eventually your “boyfriend” comes out.
“ boyfriend ? “ he raised a brow with an amused smile on his face. You will be soon you just don’t know it yet “ i..uhh I only said that so you could come out please don’t misunderstand anything ” he nodded sitting down on the chair “ well then since you requested me what do you need ? ” you didn’t actually come there with a plan. Not having enough time to think of some fake diagnosis to give yourself you chose to be honest.
A sudden wave of confidence washes over you “ I need you ” he raised a brow “pardon ?” You nodd “ you heard me” the male chuckles to himself “you came all the way just to say this.. I’ll applaud you for your determination but im not interested ” im going to throw my self of a building “ don’t speak so soon.. once you get to know me your going to become interested” he hummed “ sure sure” you crossed your arms “ well if your going to reject me can I at least know the name of the guy I’ve been dreaming about ” he smirks “ you’ve been dreaming about me? Your very honest I like that.. and the names jay “ even his name is sexy
“ I’m honest and a lot more things you will like if your willing to find out jay..” you graced your fingers over his lightly before turning off to leave. With a proud smile on your face
Jay didn’t really understand what just happed but he found you amusing. It’s not like he hadn’t had girls come here and put it on him but something about the way you carried yourself and acted was different. He wouldn’t admit it but he hoped to see you some time soon.
As quick as the next day you showed up. You approach the counter to be met with the same old annoying lady “ here to see your boyfriend? I’ll get him ” maybe she’s not so annoying anymore you smiled to yourself as your little lie seemed to be doing you wonders
“ good afternoon jay how’ve you been did you miss me” he rolled his eyes while flicking though some documents “ you’ve been gone for 21 hours.. there’s nothing to miss it hasn’t even been a full day” he was counting..? “ you counted how many hours soooo…you did miss me didn’t you ?” you spoke with a slight blush on your cheeks at the thought that he actually missed you to some extent. Jay noticed this he thought it was cute how easily flustered you got “ your cute when you blush ” hearing him say that you made your legs melt like jelly almost losing balance to the point jay even stood up reaching out for your arm in concern
“ y/n.. are you alright ?” You nodd slowly “ you know my name..” you speak in a dazed tone to which jay smiles “ of course your not someone to forget.. so are you actually sick or.. you came here to see me” what do you think “ no this time I’m actually a little under the weather do you want to know why jay ” he nodded getting out his notepad
“ I’m stuffing from unrequited love.. the guy I like doesn’t feel the same way.. and I think I might die from a broken heart ” you spoke dramatically with a small pout flashing jay your doe eyes hoping he would be tranced by your attempt to be cute and fall in love with you. To your shock he flicked your forehead “ ouch! Why would you do that ! ” he now moved closer to you placing his hands on the counter staring at you deeply
“ it seems your suffering form something else too.. stupidity ” huh? What is that supposed to mean “ what.. please elaborate I’m unaware of this symptom” you speak deeply confused so you move closer to jay urging him for an answer. Almost closing the distance between the two of you. You action caught jay of guard causing him to move back and hide his deep blush with a cough “ that’s a conversation for another time “ you raise a brow “ another time? So you intend to see me again when’s the date ” he laughs “ I never said I was taking you out on a date ” you pout again
“ fine then.. I guess I’ll just go to another hospital form now on..” you turn to leave wishing he would follow you but the more you headed to the entrance you realised he wasn’t. You sighed maybe this is a sign I should move on.
Though just as you stepped foot out the entrance you felt a force pull you to an outside wall pushing you against it. You were shocked to see jay. “ are you that dense y/n” what what what “Huh..? I don’t I.. I don’t understand ” his eyes flicked from your eyes to your lips he seemed as if he heisted at the thought of kissing you
“ on second thought.. I-I don’t need to understand if your going to kiss me just do it ” he chuckled lightly placing his finger on your lips “ I want to make that move in a better and more appropriate setting if you get what I mean” he still wants to kiss me so a win is a win.
you couldn’t belive that this whole time jay liked you back you mentally facepalm yourself for being so dense how did you not notice sooner? A regular person would have shooed you away yet he entertained it all. It was so obvious I’m an idiot
He pulls away from you slightly now resting on the wall next to you
“ wait so you really did miss me? ” he nodded but you didn’t fail to miss the small tint of red that was evident on his ears as he attempted to turn away “ yeah.. I actually gave you my number but I guess you didn’t notice “ you raise a brow number HE GAVE ME HIS NUMBER AND I DIDINT NOTICE !?
“ wait wait wait when? “ he shrugged “ on the first day I wrote it on a sheet of paper and when I escorted you and your mom to the doctor I slipped it into your bag since you left it open Damm it this was the 3rd mental facepalming you had revived for your actions, as you do in fact remember seeing a scrunched up ball of paper but assumed it was rubbish and threw it in the trash.
“ I threw that in the bin thinking it was rubbish oh my gosh Jay why didn’t you just straight up say it to me my memory is impeccable!” he smiles “ I wanted to tease you a little bit longer I like seeing you all cute and flustered ” now it was your turn away and hide the blush on your face.
You had so much more you wanted to say to him but the interaction was cut short by that annoying old lady. Yes after what interrupting your lil moment with jay she became annoying again
“ Jay.. stop sucking your girlfriends face off and answer to some customers I’m on my break !” She yells as you could hear her approaching. You turn to jay with a frown. Though Shocking both you and him Jay unknowingly places a quick kiss on your cheek mouthing a small “I’ll see you later” before running back into the hospital.
You sigh as you lean on the wall placing your hand on your cheek as you relived the moment on reply. Again and again and again and again- “ y/n!” you hear jay call out for you. He approached you quickly placing a folded paper in your Palm “ my number.. please don’t throw it away again and call me”
And he sped off again
You smiled to yourself as you held the paper firmly in your hand not wanting to let go. You never knew in your life that you would be thanking your mother for being so dramatic.

The coordination between the shoes and the top of the jacket? On par. He would totally paint his nails black. I also love the yin and yang like how they had on the tenjiku uniforms. Especially how its the little dot on the peacock feather its so extra. 9/10, -1 for the bandages i know ur not well sweetie but this is unnecessary

YOU ARE MY SUN
Pairing: Dazai Osamu x f!Reader Warnings: Self Harm, Talks of Violence. Suggestive but no actual depiction. Talk of Death
After a long mission for the Armed Detective Agency, you come back and are questioning what kind of person you are. As a former member of the port mafia, the things you have done are unspeakable but are you able to change? Your former partner in crime seems to be having an easier time changing than you, why is that?
Sticky Note: this is my first BSD fic, so i hope yall like it.
masterlist
The Armed Detective Agency was your last stop after completing your mission. It took longer than expected with you being your biggest setback. You never thought that being on the side of the righteous would be harder than your previous lifestyle. Sometimes, you didn’t even know if you were capable of being good, everything you did was mainly a façade of the person you wished you could be. Only one person ever believed in your ability to be a good person, but that person was long and gone. That’s why you were here now, riding up on this elevator to deliver your completed report of your mission trying to be the better person he wanted you to be.
“Honey, I’m home.” You boast, your practiced smile plastered on your face a bit strained. Before you could even make another poor joke, Kunikida started yelling at you. The vein in his head already exceeding a point that you knew was painful, his glasses sliding down the bridge of his nose.
His rant begins, “Where have you been Kai?!” questioning about your whereabouts. The mission that you were on was a dangerous one, which is really the only mission that you go on but hadn’t been heard from in a month, all communication went silent, and he just knew you were dead finally. Ranpo told him and everyone else that you were just fine. It’s not that he wanted you dead, it’s just that you were known for your recklessness and lived as if you could not die. But if you did die, maybe that would be enough to repent for your sins.
This was the usual speech that he gives, goes in one of your ears and out the other. It was a little more aggressive than usual which made your attention even more divided, especially since something caught your eye. There seemed to be a new agent, a white-haired kid, who looked a bit too innocent to be here.
“Who’s the kid?” You ask, cutting Kunikida off mid-sentence which made the vein in his head pulsate from your lack of attentiveness. He was trying to explain the importance of keeping up communication and keeping track of your whereabouts for safety reasons.
He groans, rubbing his hand on his face. Kunikida should have known that you weren’t really listening to him, what else should he expect?
“That’s Atsushi, Dazai recruited him.” He mumbles pushing his glasses up on his face, you truly exhausted the poor man. Between you and Dazai, you were sure you both took at minimum 10 years off his lifespan.
“Interesting,” you think shoving the completed reports at the man in front of you. Were you a pain in the ass? Yes, but you get the job done. “everything’s in there” you mention casually as you walk towards this Atsushi, you had to find out why Dazai recruited him, that wasn’t really his style.
 “Hey kid” you call out to the white-haired boy; he looks up at you nervously. The kid knew that you were obviously part of the agency because you wouldn’t be here unless. There was also a photo of you and Dazai that Atsushi once spotted in Dazai’s otherwise empty wallet. It was a picture of Oda, you, Dazai, and reluctantly Ango that Dazai folded cutting off the other two men.
“Uhm hi. I’m Atsushi.” He says with a slight bow. Cute, how formal.
“Names Kai. I heard you were recruited by Dazai. Do you happen to know where he is right now?” You ask seemingly innocently.
“No, I haven’t seen him all day. He does have me doing his paperwork though.” Atsushi complains a bit, showing the papers to you. This information made you grin, if he was getting this kid to do his paperwork that meant he wasn’t coming around for a while. Now you had more than enough time to interrogate him, grabbing a chair and sliding it in front of his desk. You grab the paperwork from his hands, tossing it on your own desk.
“So, how did you get into the agency?” You ask in a sing-song voice, head tilting at him. Atsushi immediately got flustered and it was hilarious to you. He really didn’t look like the kind of kid that Dazai would have recruited, he seemed so sweet and a bit innocent.
“Stop messing with him, Kai” Kunikida scolds you while you roll your eyes at him turning back in response.
“Dang, I can’t get to know the kid? You make it seem like I’m as bad as Dazai.”
“Objectively, you’re worse.” He responds and you wince at his words dramatically.
“You wound me. You really do. Words hurt!” You say while grasping your chest in fake pain. He just scoffs and walks off. “Anyways,” your attention back to the kid in front of you. “Now go on, don’t leave out a single detail.” You command with a smile on your face.
Atsushi tells you everything that happened to him since meeting Dazai. As he spoke, you could tell why Dazai recruited him. The kid reminded you of someone you both used to love, it warmed you a bit. You could tell he had such a kind heart and had been through too much unlike his last protégé. Even though you knew Dazai for so long, longer than anyone else at the agency of course before he even had the idea to join back when he was a completely different person. So much has changed since then, honestly, those were simpler times back then, but all things change.
Just as Atsushi was finishing his tale, the devil himself walked in, Dazai.
“Oi, loser” You call out to him as he walks through the doorway. When his eyes land on you, they immediately turn into big saucers and the puppy dog face has been activated.
“Kai, you’re back and without telling me” He whines as he scuttles over to where you’re sitting. With a laugh, you stand up and push your pointer finger into his head.
“Yeah, my phone broke like ages ago BUT now I must make my leave.” You turn away from him to sit on the open windowsill. This just gets a pout from him; you knew he was just messing around.  This was his outside personality, not the real him.
“Oh, and before I go,” You remark, pointing your head towards Atsushi, “Nice pick on the kid. I like him” and with that, you fall back out of the window, pulling a surprised exclaim from the white-haired boy in question as he rushed to the window just in time to see you land perfectly on the ground. You looked up to see his exasperated face which made you laugh, waving at him before leaving to go home.
“Isn’t she fun?’ Dazai asks, hands in his pockets.
“Why hasn’t anyone mentioned her before?” The boy questioned back, relieved that you were okay.
“She does a lot of outside missions, barely ever here. Just slipped my mind I guess.” He shrugged, now noticing the unfinished paperwork on his desk. He groaned, knowing that it was your doing that his work wasn’t finished for him.
“But you have a picture of the two of you in your wallet.”  
“We used to work together before coming to the agency” The man replied casually, as if anyone but the two of you knew the type of work you did before here.
“Oh” was all that Atsushi responded with, he knew he wasn’t going to get a straight answer out of Dazai about where they used to work or about the two of y’all relationship.
The relationship the two of you had was complicated, to say the least. Back in the port mafia days, it was you and Oda, he was what you would consider the love of your life. He was the only person who you thought ever saw any good in you, considering your ability most people just saw you as a tool, a powerful tool. But when you were with Oda, he made you feel hope that you were more than that. Now that he was gone, you had to try to believe that in yourself. This was the same with Dazai, Oda saw what was good in him too even if he didn’t see it like he did.
After Oda’s death, you were a complete wreck, and it was no surprise that Dazai was the same. There were many nights that you both would drink together and wake up drunk. But that was no way to live, Oda didn’t want you two to live that way.  That’s how both of you ended up at the agency, ended up getting closer and closer every day, holding on to the secrets and pain of the past.
In your apartment, you washed off the memories of your mission. The struggles you have been facing, swirling down the drain with the water. This mission wasn’t hard at all, skill-wise. The issue that you were experiencing was control, it felt like you were slipping. Things were getting so much harder for you, your instincts kicking in when they shoulder, the muscle memory fighting against what you aren’t anymore. It was making you sloppy, it was making you unsafe, there was too much going on through your mind to be as effective as you should be.
The shower did make you feel better, but you needed a drink and it needed to be strong. Dressed in a casual outfit, a tan tank top, black cargo pants, and the usual black trench coat that Dazai got you, off you went to your favorite hole in the wall.
“Kai” Your local bartender greets you by name since you are a regular. You raise your hand back in greeting, your usual happiness gone for your regular melancholy state. Luckily for you and as always, there wasn’t anyone in your favorite corner of the shabby spot, sinking right in the booth knowing your usual would be brought to you.
“Haven’t seen you in a while, Kai” The server comments, placing your drink in front of you a rum old fashion. Before answering, you grab your drink and down it even though it’s meant to be sipped.
“Yeah, been gone.” You huff placing the now empty glass down, you needed that.
“And stressed” She mentioned picking up your glass, “I’ll bring you another.”
You just hum in response, now being left alone with thoughts of the warm sensation of alcohol raising your body temperature slightly. As you wait for your next drink, your eyes close while you rest your head on the back of the booth. The weight of the world felt as if it was on your chest, crushing you from the thought of your past and present. Your hand moves reflexively to your wrist, snapping the band around it to give yourself some relief better than any other alternative. Maybe for once, you would take Dazai up on his other for a double suicide. What was the point anymore anyway? Before you could have another deprecating thought, a hand slides onto your wrist stopping the snapping. There was only one person it could be the man who had just crossed your mind.
“Yes, Dazai?” You ask not even bothering to open your eyes yet.
“If you wanted to harm yourself, we could always do a double suicide.” He suggests in the joking manner he always does, but this makes you open your eyes sitting up.
“Sure. Let's do it.” You say earnestly, looking him deep into his eyes and the look he gives you back almost makes you falter. The look was so soft, so sad, it was the same look Oda used to give you which almost brought tears to your eyes. Luckily, Dazai had brought your next with him when he came to sit, and you grabbed it averting your eyes and taking another chug ushering for another to be brought to you.
“Tell me how your mission went and then we will,” he says casually, taking a sip of his own drink. You go back to snapping the band around your wrist before you speak.
“It went fine” Another snap comes with that falsehood, and you knew he didn’t believe but usually he didn’t push. Today must have been different.
“And yet here you are, back to old habits after having no contact for almost a month.” He took another sip from his drink, sliding his other hand on your wrist to stop you. His touch was so gentle and calming, he had only been this way with you a few times, times like this one. You were silenced by his touch, waiting for your next drink to come before you spoke again. Luckily for you, this time you brought three drinks. The bar could tell this was going to be the kind of night, and you nodded gratefully as the server walked away.
“It’s just….” You speak softly, feeling his hands hold onto your wrist as if supporting you. You start on your first drink before you continue. “Do you ever think that maybe Oda was wrong? That I don’t have the capability of being a good person? “You finally look back at him, to see if you can read his gaze. His expression was unreadable to you, almost as if he was confused by your question. The masks you both usually wear fall at this moment, it’s as if only you two were there.
“Sometimes, it just feels like I’m going to slip back into staining my hands. It’s so hard Osamu, it’s hard.” You confess, using his given name that rarely comes out of your own mouth, and his hand slides from your wrist to set itself in your palm.
“I know”
“Do you? It feels like it’s coming so easy for you. You brought Atsushi on, you saved him.” You grip his hand as it is sitting on your palm.
“We repent in different ways. This is one of mine”
That relieved you in some way, there was sincerity in his eyes and words. He was doing things in his own way but that didn’t mean it was any easier for him. It almost brought a tear to your eye, maybe you weren’t a monster that couldn’t change.
“Maybe,” you remark, taking another sip of your drink, releasing your hand from his when you realize they are still entangled. This was one of those moments you and Dazai have been having more frequently. The touches came from often, the walls breaking down between the two of you, there was safety in each other.
“You know the wrong I’ve done but Oda believed in you just as much as he believed in me. That we could both be better people than we were. He loved you.”
“The silly man sure did.” You scoff looking down into your drink, a tear falling into the almost empty glass. You down the rest of it without a second thought, moving on to the next.
“Ya know, he used to say that I was the sun. All the good he was able to do was a reflection of me, even if he was in the port mafia. He said that I was so bright that there was a reason for him to be better, to be kind.”  Your hands gripped the glass in front of you, tears threatening yet again to spill as your grip tightened on the glass. The glass shattered under the pressure of your grip, cutting deep into your hand.
“Fuck” the curse leaves your lips, not even pulling back from the shattered glass just turning your palms up. Your mind instinctively went to using your ability to stop time to clean up the mess so no one would notice but you feel Dazais hand around your wrist stopping you. He doesn’t say anything, just starts picking up the glass for you. No words were spoken between the two of you as he cleaned it up before grabbing your arm and taking you out of the bar. The silence lingered between the both of you as he walked you home, glass still in your palms burning from the intrusion and the alcohol but you enjoyed the pain better than feeling anything else.
Once at your apartment, Dazai doesn’t even let you attempt to fumble through your coat for your key, sliding his hand in the inner pocket to take the item out for himself and opening your door. He ushered you inside to your own place, placing you on your bed and making you sit down. There has yet to be a word spoken between the two of you as he gets the first aid kit that you keep in your bathroom out. His fingers work diligently, gently pulling the glass out of your hands making sure not to embed them any further into your skin. As he finishes wrapping your hand up, he takes them into his own looking up at you from his position on the floor.
“He was right you know” his voice barely above a whisper. You look at him confused about what he means. “You really are the sun.”
At that moment, you were now aware of the fact that Dazai still had your hands in his and you froze. A slightly shocked expression marks your face, but you stay silent because what are you supposed to say at this moment?
“You worry so much about trying to be a better person, bad people don’t worry about things like that.” A small smile threatens to appear on his lips as he speaks. “You’re not like me, no matter what I do, I will always be who I am.”
Your brow furrows, replacing his hold on your hands with yours on him, joining his position on the floor. “That’s not true and you know it. You’ve changed Osamu, you have. I see it in you every day. I see it in the way that you are so much gentler now. You care for people. You care for me.” The passion in your voice makes him more upset than it seems, which just confuses you even more.
“And there lies the problem. That’s what makes me a terrible man, a man who isn’t capable of change because I do care about you. What good person falls in love with their dead friend's girlfriend? I didn’t even know I was capable of feeling that and then the one person I fall for is you of all people.” He confesses, scoffing inwardly. You were completely taken aback by his sudden words, but you knew they were true. The two of you have gotten so close, leaning on each other, supporting each other, caring for each other.  There was no denying that you also were slowly thawing to his warmth, the drunken nights turning into mornings waking up to him, the worry for his safety while you were away, you had gotten so used to it being the two of you. It was you and him; him and you. Without even thinking, you grab his face making it face you.
“I will always love Oda, I will. But….” You hesitate but the looks in his eyes, the real look in his eyes gives you a bit of confidence, he was here with you not far off in his own mind. “But I love you Osamu Dazai, I do. You are also my sun; I want to be better for him and for you.”
For the first time ever, you have surprised him. He was surprised by your confession just as much as you were surprised by him. Now to surprise him even more, you smash your lips onto his, not releasing his face from your hands. The shock of you kissing him, quickly went away as his arms forcefully wrap around your back pulling you closer to him.
You were the first one to pull away, looking at his face with watery eyes.
“Make me yours Osamu.”
And make you his, he did. Several times.
The next morning, the two of you walked into the agency together which wasn’t an unusual occurrence but once Ranpo saw the two of you, he smirked.
“Ugh FINALLY” The man exclaims throwing his hands in the air. “You owe me Kunikida” Ranpo says pointing his lollipop at him. Kunikida looks up at Ranpo and then at you and Dazai coming in together.
“No way! How do you even know?!? They literally just walked in like they normally do.” Kunikida yells back.
“What is going on?” You ask, arms crossed because of course these idiots were up to something.
“I bet that you two would get together before the end of the year, but Kunikida said Dazai was too dumb to make it happen.”
You almost start snort laughing at how hilarious that was trying to hold it back, especially the shocked and offended look on Dazais face.
“Kunikida, I’m hurt. Truly I am! Do you think I’m unlovable?!” Dazai whines at the blonde.
“Absolutely I do,” Kunikida replies matter-of-factly. You couldn’t help but laugh at that.
“You are very lovable Osamu.” You giggle before placing a kiss on his nose. An innocent contrast to the debauchery of last night.
“Confirmed. Pay up.” Ranpo hand is held out to Kunikida who begrudgingly pays up. It was a lot of money, which meant he had 0 faith in your coupling. The bickering about the exchange starts up again between Dazai and Kunikida at the amount of money. You smile to yourself, enjoying the scene as you sit at your desk. Maybe you could have some of this happiness and be the sun.

Strings and Soccer.
Michael Kaiser (Thread of Fate AU.)
| I just wanted to quickly throw this in here that I have absolutely no idea what I am doing and this is just a piece of my mind as the clock almost strikes 1 in the morning. This has little to no proof-read at all, and this is my first time writing on here so I do apologize for the mistakes I made below. Thank you and enjoy. |
It's a terrifying sight to say the least; the look of determination this man has in his eyes. You knew he was always serious in what he does, and his obsession with soccer was something that you always admired. That crazed look in his eyes whenever he kicks the ball ever so freely to reach the opponent's goal, the determined look in his eyes-- that is how he looked before you now, but it seems even stronger.
He wasn't about to take no for an answer, and you knew that more than anyone. Michael Kaiser simply does not beg, it doesn't exist in his 101 egoistical guide that he lives his life according to-- but for you? He will. He will 'beg' for you to stay, in his own way of course.
The deadly grip that he has around your wrist, his touch almost burns, and it pains you, but it was undeniably soft for the Michael Kaiser. That's how he always was to you; soft. Well the more accurate way to say it is; merciful. He pulled you closer by your wrist, making you stumble forward, your chests almost making contact before you stumbled back.
"Stay."
The audacity. Wasn't he the one who had cut you off like you meant nothing to him? Wasn't he the one who rejected your calls, blocked you everywhere, because you were a 'distraction' ? Not to mention the nerve that he had to say such a thing in the most pitiful voice he would ever use while he lived on this earth, but it was only for you, that is.
And how dare the string show itself again-- you thought he had already cut it, but the string is so darn stubborn.
.
.
.
[12 years ago.]
You and Michael were considered lucky to be tied by the sacred string, on one lonely day at the children's playground, many, many years ago. You had always struggled to make friends, while he-- well, he didn't need any. He thinks these other gremlins were just too much of a hassle and a waste of space.
You watched the other kids play, some sort of longing bloomed in your pure soul as you watched the other kids your age play tags with their other friends. It has always been this way. You were just too shy, and no one really wanted to approach you. But it doesn't necessarily upset you; you don't mind being the only company for yourself. After all, you'll end up alone after your lifespan ends, won't you? You had quite an interesting mind, for a child.
The rain suddenly fell, and you looked up to the grey skies and watched as the faint light of the rumbling thunder peeked through the ethereal clouds. You let the rain fall onto you for a little, before making your way under the metal fort of the playground, almost as if you didn't want to. You wanted to play under the rain, but you knew better than to get yourself soaked while waiting for your parents to pick you up just to get scolded afterwards.
You brought your knees to your chest and started drawing patterns on the wet sand of the ground. You could hear the annoying sneezes of the other kids already, but you paid no mind. Loud splashes coming from the footsteps of a boy with a ball in front of his moving legs in the distance went unnoticed by you at first, before at the corner of your eye, you saw a ball stopping right beside your feet, dirty and stained with mud. But that wasn't the only thing that caught your eye.
You saw the sacred crimson string glowing before your own eyes. Who does it belong to? You were so oblivious to it, and it took you a solid 10 seconds to figure out that your small pinky was tied to it. You couldn't believe it. The other end of that thin string was your.. soulmate?
You saw a pair of dirty sneakers stop right beside the ball, and you could see the figure just enough-- the fair soft skin that was soaked by the rain water, and the small fingers that somehow looked so delicate to you, and a pinky tied to the same, glowing thread of fate that lies on the ground.
The figure slowly bent down, revealing a boy maybe about your age, witnessing the most infuriatingly captivating blue eyes that have ever bore into your own gaze. His head ever so slightly tilted to the side, his gorgeous blonde hair with blue streaks were drenched by the rain, looking so majestic even under the pouring rain.
"Found you."

Questions copied and pasted from the message I sent.
Were there any major things that changed from the initial direction you were going to take the fic in? Were there any scenes that you wrote in the fic that just didn't end up making the final cut? Who was your favorite character to write? Those sorts of things?
Hello tomato, thanks for your lovely message, and now this ask! Let’s see…
Were there any major things that changed from the initial direction you were going to take the fic in? 
Surprisingly little. The upside of following the existing plot of a game is that the direction of the story is already mapped out for you. I will say, when I first started writing it I had very few ideas about who Chrysanthe was, he was just a thrall-turned-paladin, more of a concept than a fleshed-out character. He grew alongside writing; all the stuff about him becoming more draconic was organic development and not especially planned.
I did spend a lot more time on non-game plot than I’d anticipated. When I wrote Hermaeus Mora attacking Chrysanthe and the subsequent stay at Frostmere Crypt that took like 10 chapters where I thought it would take like 3.
Were there any scenes that you wrote in the fic that just didn't end up making the final cut? 
A fair few, yes! Off the top of my head…
Miraak and Chrysanthe were going to have a chat about who would out-live the other, because Chry is an altmer (the lifespan of mer in elder scrolls lore is very unreliable, but I figured a few hundred years at least), but Miraak is… well, Miraak. Chry is the Last Dragonborn, which implies Miraak dies before he does. Cut because it was too depressing, tbh
There was going to be a thing near the end where Miraak helped Chry with his self-esteem by showing him exactly how highly Miraak prized him via telepathy. It was maaaybe going to lead to telepathy sex. I cut it because I wasn’t really feeling what I wrote - maybe it felt too much like ‘fixing’ Chry’s confidence issues, idk
There was a sex scene at Lakeview in which they broke the bed and Chry was mortified/Miraak was delighted by it. That was cut because it was too similar to the time he accidentally set the bed on fire
There was a whole part where Mora so relentlessly attacked them that Chry/Miraak decided to seek out the dwemer sphere Septimus Signus had (currently at the bottom of the ocean floor after Mora attacked the ice cave), on the basis that Mora wanted whatever was inside so it could be used to blackmail/bargain peace with him. It was cut because it was very long-winded and I had an Alduin-killing plot to get on with already. If I ever do write a sequel, it’ll end up in there
Clavicus Vile was going to show up again given that Chry sort of kind of struck a bargain with him. Probably an offer to help with the dwemer sphere thing above. It’s Clavicus, so this was going to go about as well as you’d expect.
Who was your favorite character to write?
Despite the story being told from Chry’s POV, Miraak was hands down my fav - he has such a distinctive voice, both stilted (‘Is it not’ instead of ‘isn’t it’, that sort of thing) and commanding (‘you will do this for me’) that makes him really fun to write. He’s also just a great mix of arrogant, forceful and imperious, but also thoughtful, hyper-competent and just devastatingly clever. I always tried to write him like the smartest person in the room - not to say that he is the smartest, of course. I'd have written parts of the story from his POV, but what does that man even think about all day? I certainly don't know.
Hope that answers your questions!

Welcome to Mt. Cavaro! Pt. 2
Tumblr media
This mountain plateau was once nothing but a small seasonal hunting town. Over the last 50 years however, developers took notice of the potential of this location and now, it is a bustling upcoming town. Families and sims have moved in droves to start business opportunities or to take advantage of those who are. Some however, are just enjoying the quiet scenic views and good people.
Time to show the families! There are 14 households I will be playing rotationally. I will show them in the order I will play them.
I will add the Family Description I have In-Game and the additional Information from my Excel Document
MISC INFO
I will be playing wants based, so the sims have to want something for me to do it. (eg: teen sims will not go to uni unless they have the want to on the day of their age up). I will make some of my own choices for the sims when I see fit, like for example: Vera Flast has the OTH of Music & Dance, so I will pursue the dance career as that is what I believe she would do. Both her and Arthur must go to university because they are from a wealthy family that would enforce this.
LTWs can change up until the sim is 10 days deep in adulthood. Because IRL you wouldn't know what you want forever when you're 15. So it's subject to change if I feel the old LTW doesn't reflect the sim.
I am using custom lifespans:
Babies: 5 days
Toddlers: 10 days
Child: 14 days
Teenagers: 22 days
Adults: 40 days
Elders: 9-30 days
If elders pass away after only 9 days, they would have lived 100 days exactly, if they live to the full 30 days, they will die at 120 days.
I am using some mods that effect gameplay
ACR
Edukashun iz Gud (sims need a university education to reach lvl 10 career)
Community Lot Time fix (allows you to play the household when someone is away at a community lot)
Lower wages (Makes the game harder)
Wild Child (allows teen woohoo (risky) and teen pregnancy)
Random school fixes (Fixed snowday, can only bring home certain sims depending on what school they go to)
Hacked computer (allows banking, online shopping and other misc things)
Loan Jar (allows loans)
Welfare Mod (allows low income sims to go on welfare)
(I am using default poses because I dont use posepacks like, ever)
The Flast Household
Tumblr media
The Flasts were one of the first families to move into Mt. Cavaro when the development boom had begun, Rodney took over after his father's passing. Even romancing Velma Aster. Who, at the time was the biggest businesswoman in Cavaro but, after being caught cheating with their maid Anastasia: it became a messy and loud divorce. Now, Rodney and Anastasia have two children and have taken over the Aster's old empire. The family isn't perfect though, Rodney is about to age up and Arthur has no interest in ever taking on the role of a business owner- Vera is far to young to consider and what are these rumors about a teen pregnancy, and why is Arthur involved?

Starting with revamping the local pet rescue center, the only thing Rodney had left her. Next was opening a small gardening store after uncovering her love for nature.

Hachirō and Mèng yáo have had an… interesting relationship. With Mèng yáo meeting Hachirō in college and very soon after finding out that he was pregnant… because he started giving birth in her dorm room.

That didn't deter her however, she helped Hachirō Take care of little Aiko and they both managed to get through college. Now, they have Yìchén. Hachirō has been running the local Pharmacy; what worries mèng yáo is that Hachirō is still looking towards the stars, she loves Aiko but… another alien baby isn't what she exactly wants.

The Cruz sister's just graduated university, well Malaya did. Althea just flunked and ended up squatting in Malaya's dorm. Fitting for her to become a slacker. Malaya also doesn't really like the new guy Althea is seeing, he seems like a total sleaze. Hopefully she can save up enough to get out of this hellhole of an apartment with WAY to thin of walls. Malaya doesn't really get why Althea loves seeing so many different people, isn't finding your one true love the total fantasy?

Thats all my Families in Mt. Cavaro! Sorry for another terribly long post- hopefully this doesn't become a habit.
IMPORTANT! Alot of my sims appearances and names are inspired by real world cultures. A lot of these names are real names in said cultures, most of which I am not educated on fully. So if I am using a sims name in an inappropriate or incorrect way- PLEASE let me know so I can fix it asap and if you are able, maybe give me a suggestion of what to change it to :)
I dont exactly know yet how I will be formatting my posts on what happens in each rotation. I could make a post for each individual families week, but that might bog down this blog. The other option is to do a full rotation and post all families in one big post, but that might mean some posts are few and far between. Please give your opinions!
Also, a sidenote: I am INCREDIBLY burnt out from all the building and decorating of this entire hood. So I will not be building my own University/College subhood. I am debating whether or not to just use a Maxis one or looking for one someone else has made that fits the aesthetics of my hood. I will let you guys know in an update post in the near future :)

Questionnaire that's been going around for @sonic-oc-showdown - this particular version I grabbed from @addysfandomdump with a few stats added!
Name: Sakuranbo the Kitsune... but you can call them Ran! (Or even Ranran if you like!)
Species: Kitsune; they consider themselves distinct from other Mobian foxes (and they have differentiating traits such as narrower/closer set ears and 1000+ year lifespans), but if I were to choose a real-life species it'd be the Ezo red fox (Vulpes vulpes schrencki)
Type: Speed
Alignment: Hero
Height: 85cm/about 2'9.5" (not counting the ears)
Weight: 22kg/about 49lbs
Birthday: June 10
Home: Originally Kita Village; currently Angel Island
And more below!
✨ - How did you come up with the OC’s name? 
Ran originated as an adoptable I bought, and it's one of those circumstances where I knew their name and personality as soon as I saw them! Ran (rhymes with 'Tron' more or less, not 'man') was the original name, something cute and quick that seemed to suit them. From there I decided that 'Sakuranbo', 'cherry', was the full name!
The name of their Chao, Berii, is just a follow-up on the fruit/berry theme. And the name of their home village is derived from kitakitsune, another name for the Ezo red fox!
🌼 - How old are they? (Or approximate age range) 
Ran's ten!
🌺 - Do they have any love interest(s)?
Nope - none so far!
🍕 - What is their favorite food?
Inari age! In sushi, topping udon, or just by itself.
However, their desire to be like Knuckles makes them claim grapes are their favorite.
💼 - What do they do for a living?
Ran doesn't really have a job, and tends to survive by foraging if there's no one offering food. They originally left their village as part of a survival trial, so they're pretty well-versed!
🎹 - Do they have any hobbies?
Training, exploring the island, and storytelling! Ran loves to hear and tell stories, and will talk all day given the slightest nudge!
🎯 - What do they do best?
Storytelling! They're very good at either adapting old stories or telling new ones. (You'd thing this would help with their illusion/trickster skills, but in those cases they sometimes embellish a little too much or simply upset themselves if the ruse seems to be turning hurtful.)
🥊 - What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?
Ran loves exploring, telling stories, and practicing their combat skills (based around fast decisive strikes, using their opponent's momentum and weight as leverage against them, and kunai throwing or close combat) and kitsune magic (shapeshifting, illusions, and foxfire).
Ran hates cooking (they're simply not good at it) and building (they'd rather find somewhere to shelter naturally)
❤️ - What is one of your OC’s best memories?
Meeting Knuckles and seeing Angel Island for the first time! They ended up there by accident (exploring an Egg Carrier out of curiosity and still being on board when it took off), but their immediate fascination with the island and its mysteries, and how star-struck they were with Knuckles' strong sense of loyalty and duty as well as his survival skills, convinced them that this... was DESTINY.
✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?
Realizing that their parents, while they certainly loved Ran, thought they were a letdown... especially in comparison to their younger brother. Ran doesn't resent Zakuro... but the realization of being the 'lesser' child, and the fact that it wasn't exactly a secret, still plagues them to a degree.
🧊 - Is their current design the first one?
Sort of - Ran was originally an adopt, and I've been tweaking the original look here and there (both just translating to my style, and things like changing the original bodysuit under the kimono to shortsleeved and adding black eartips. The basic look remains the same though!
🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?
Aside from the 'this is their personality' realized when I saw the adoptable design, I had the idea of someone who was really enthusiastic about something a lot of people might see as a burden... and I sort of wanted to connect an OC to Knuckles, who is my favorite of the main characters. The idea of a really enthusiastic wannabe-apprentice just snowballed from there (and also allows some thinking into Knuckles and how he'd react to this once the general bafflement wears off... namely, does he WANT to burden someone else with this destiny? Who WILL take over when he's gone? Does someone HAVE to? ...can he really just build his own hand-picked clan?)
🌂 - What genre do they belong in?
Action Comedy!
💚 - What is your OC’s gender identity and sexuality?
Ran is nonbinary (they/them)! Sexuality is currently Unknown, though I'm leaning aroace. (That's definitely something that someone would have to explain to them, though....)
🙌 - How many siblings does your OC have?
One younger brother, Zakuro! Zaku is seven years old. They also have a younger sister, Suika, that they've never met as Suika was born after they left the village.
🍎 - What is the OC’s relationship w/their parents like?
A little strained. Ran's parents do love them, but they've never exactly hidden the fact that they consider Ran a bit of a disappointment and Zaku the superior child. This is at least partly linked to Ran's personal magic: while all kitsune possess the ability to shapeshift, cast illusions, and create illuminating but non-burning foxfire, each one also has a signature spell - and Ran's is merely creating a heat-producing/burning version of foxfire, while Zaku's is the more obviously unique ability to control plants. This ultimately led to them dismissing all of Ran's abilities, efforts, and even personality as 'not as good as your brother' and is one of the reasons they wandered so far in what was supposed to be a week-long trial in the first place... and one of the reasons they're so desperate for Knuckles' acknowledgment and approval. Ran doesn't mind their ability being what it is... after all, they had a famous ancestor, Momo, whose signature ability was 'just' shapeshifting and illusion to a perfection no other kitsune could attain! They just wish their parents saw it - and them - as valuable.
✏️ - How often do you draw/write about the OC?
Less than I should! I haven't found a good place to insert them in RP and I haven't written Sonic fic in a long time... but the Showdown has me doing more with them!
💎 - Do you ever see yourself killing off the OC?
Nope!
💀 - Does your OC have any phobias?
Ran is afraid of the dark - so it's a good thing they can generate both burning and non-burning flame at well. They're also afraid of being alone in the world, with no one who'd care if they were gone.
🍩 - Who is your OC’s arch-nemesis or rival?
By Ran's logic, if Sonic is Knuckles' rival then Tails must be theirs! However, given their ages and temperaments the Ran/Tails Rivalry mainly involves things like 'who will win first place in Tomatopotamus Team Kart' (usually Tails) or 'who can fit the most mint candies in their mouth' (Ran, but Tails vows to take the crown once he's had time to catch up growth-wise).
There's also Matilda the Ant (@frostios/@halcyon-pandion) based on a comment from one of her creators. Knuckles Hater VS Knuckles Biggest Fan.
🎓 - How long have you had the OC?
Since November 2022!
💥 - What are your OC’s powers, if they have any?
Ran can shapeshift into another person or simply another species, though at their current age they are limited to ten minutes for imitating another person or one hour for another species - and in the latter they cannot yet alter their size or color/markings. They can create illusions based on how long they can concentrate on holding them, again limited by their current age and power - their illusions lack sound and scent and cannot be touched. They can cast regular non-burning foxfire, as well as burning 'regular' (blue) fire.
Additional fun facts!
Their siblings' names in English are Pomegranate and Watermelon.
Their ancestor Momo (Peach) is a reference to Tamamo no Mae, though Momo wasn't evil... probably.
When Ran first met Tails, the two tails made them think he was an adult kitsune masquerading as a red fox kit. Ran was bold enough to ask outright why he'd do that, though, so the misunderstanding was cleared up very quickly!

ugh @rtcshipweeks is sm fun but also i did not mean for this to turn out how it did - day 7: favorite penny ship!! spacedolls
maybe cw for death and talks of death/funerals? its sweet i promise but it might be a bit sad
ricky potts wasn't good at making friends. nobody really wanted to be his friend, anyway.
until penny lamb arrived.
she was strange. she came from the commune a few towns over, so she wasn't quite acclimated to such a big environment. something told ricky that she wasn't sure what she was doing. ever.
she stumbled through conversations, barely passed most classes, and couldn't seem to get a hang of anything religious.
but everyday, like clockwork, she came up to ricky during lunch, sat down and started to talk to him. the first day she did it, she admitted that she wasn't sure how to talk to him since he couldn't talk back, but that she wanted to try. he laughed, and nodded to her, pulling out his aac device and introducing himself.
and they talked every day from then on. he started to teach her sign language, and she told him she was teaching her brother so she could get use out of it when she wasn't with him. she helped him fend off bullies, or ocean, with her arguably scary 6' frame and linebacker shoulders. he helped her with homework, and carefully explained the bible when she needed him to.
he met her brother- ezra- and she met his parents and cats. he was forced to teach her the signs for.. less school appropriate things after his mother joked that they should be careful, and always use protection! and that you should at least wait until you're 18. penny giggled at him when he explained it with a warm face and shaky hands.
that also led into him mentioning his lifespan after shooting down her question several times.
'25.' he signed flatly, 'my lifespan is around 25. maybe 30 if i get lucky.'
he could see the moment her heart cracked. "thats not very long."
he shook his head, 'no, it isn't. but life goes on, right?'
she hummed half-heartedly. "i guess so. does it upset you?"
ricky smiled, shaking his head again. 'i've had years to accept it. i'm not happy about it, but my body can only do so much for me. thats okay.'
penny nodded slowly, and he could almost see the gears turning in her head. "do you have a bucket list?"
he blinked, meeting her gaze. 'yeah, i do. i've been told its pretty short, though.'
"whats the first item?"
1. have a picnic on the beach
2. go skydiving (maybe???)
3. get married (for love !!)
4. swim with sharks
5. go apple picking with mom
6. write a book (and publish it !!!)
7. mushroom picking
8. dye hair pink and purple
9. pierce ears
10. play paintball
and it kept going for pages. penny couldn't imagine a long bucket list if she tried, and she wasn't sure she wanted to.
"well, why dont we drive to the store and check one of those?"
1. have a picnic on the beach
2. go skydiving (maybe???)
3. get married (for love !!)
4. swim with sharks
5. go apple picking with mom
6. write a book (and publish it !!!)
7. mushroom picking
8. have pink and purple hair
9. pierce ears
10. play paintball
it took nearly six years to clear the list. ricky was turning 22, and his health was starting to decline a bit faster than he would've liked.
penny stayed with him the whole time, never once willing to leave his side. she helped him and his parents plan for his funeral as it approached, and she promised that any cats his parents didn't want to or couldn't keep would go to her and her brother.
by the time ricky was 24, there was one item left on his list.
3. get married (for love !!)
penny honestly couldn't stand for that. traditionally she knew that the man proposed, but she had pushed him to take this seriously, and he was always able to say no.
and so, penny lamb bought a ring and asked ricky potts to marry her. finally, after nearly eight years, she got to ask.
and he agreed, tears streaming down his face as his hands trembled into a yes, yes please, yes.
and ricky could finally cross off the final item on his bucket list.
they were together in their house, surrounded by cats and trinkets from friends, burrowed under blankets and pillows when he died three years later at 27.
she loved him, and he loved her. until his very last breath, he loved her.

I've been in the process of transitioning the beast away from seeds and toward chop/pellets for like. 2yr now. Initially, when we lived at home and he technically "my sister's pet" (🙄) he always ate seeds; that was the diet she brought him home on and because he was "her pet" that was that. When she lost interest in him after a couple years and I took over more of his care/emotional needs, I started introducing him to veggies, and when he and I moved out to my first apartment, veggies and pellets became a bigger component of his diet. Initially, she'd told me that he was actually at the end of his lifespan, and I decided that I wouldn't try to wean him all the way off seeds because if he's an old man and he's expected to die soon, well, let him rock out, right? Then I hit that sweet Google machine--as I should have because one CANNOT trust my sestra, like I love her but c'mon, you are [incredibly specific animal-related career that I'm not comfortable sharing], i should be able to take you at your word--and the little green man could easily live another 10-15 years. And this beast is unkillable. NOTHING fazes, injures, or sickens him. He is going to live until I'm 45.
Well, okay, so let's go back to the idea of getting him off seeds. It's something I've been worried about because 1) he's very fussy about veggies and 2) birds are stubborn. They will starve themselves rather than eat food that doesn't appeal to them. Shit genuinely gives me nightmares! Well I went to all this trouble of putting together a careful transition plan where I give him a wee bit more chop and a wee bit more chop and a few more pellets and a few more pellets and--well when I tell you. This fucking fuck is on his cage right now happily eating JUST pellets and ignoring the seeds. YOU COULD HAVE DONE THAT THE WHOLE GOD DAMN TIME?

a bunch of Future Redeemed thoughts before I call it a day. Currently on Chapter 3 where you have a quest to help make a certain Nopon’s workshop
my hand hurts i think i played it in an uncomfortable position
In no specific order:
these games are addictively fun because checking things off a list is fun. Rewarding you with % completion even when you discover a treasure chest makes things even more rewarding than usual
Matthew’s voice actor in Japanese (although I’m playing this in English) also voices Yuji Itadori from Jujutsu Kaisen and honestly Matthew is basically just Yuji. Casual, surprisingly empathetic bro who settles things with a good punch.
speaking of VAs, sad Al Weaver didn’t reprise Rex, and I’m not exactly sure why Skye Bennet didn’t come on for Glimmer, given it’s the same voice in Japanese there, but actually I think I like that. Just cause it’s their kid and looks like them doesn’t mean they need to be voiced by the same person. I love Dragon Ball Z (Japanese) but you don’t always have to do that
Holy shit the Xenoblade Chronicles (1) battle theme plays in the Gaur Plains area I was not expecting that. I think it took me a while because it also sounds like...Kingdom Hearts music. Did Yoko Shimomura do this track?
it’s like some of Future Redeemed here is a bit of an apology for having so much of the plot revolve around Rex’s children and their lineage that we’re going to do some more direct XB1 callbacks this time
the first big plain area definitely has elements of Gormott in the music though. Was Gormott never in Aionios before? That makes it three times they’ve remixed that track lol
I was weirded out when Rex started off all hostile to Glimmer, but they did explain it. Chad Rex isn’t just great because he big and buff, it’s cause he’s a giant himbo. It’s so fun to see him being written by someone who wrote him in XB2, some of his lines come so naturally out of his mouth
Also interesting how people who played game 1 and 2 they’ve basically confirmed Nicol and Glimmer are Shulk and Rex’s kids but it’s probably still vague enough that new players wouldn’t immediately figure it out
we now have a third time they have played The Weight of Life thankyou monolith
like I was a little disappointed the returning tracks from XB3 still have the flute in them because the flute isn’t a motif in this prequel, the off-seeing didn’t exist yet but oh well
instead of more flutes we get clapping. the claps are the new flutes. i wonder if that’s like, a symbolic choice, representing community or something
we had better get na’el playing piano on-screen at some point. maybe she sings the sad song in-character. maybe i’m going to cry a lot
btw I have a depressing theory about how Nicol and Glimmer get out of the 10-year cycle. my theory is Shulk and Rex give up their lives for their lifespans somehow. it’d explain where they went to. and why it probably can’t be repeated by anyone else. only people who originated from outside Aionios can do it maybe
good on Zeke and Pandoria for having a kid
Glimmer’s design is not too fanservicey, but it is very easy to do an upskirt shot if you move the camera. luckily she has shorts underneath her short skirt. she also has jiggle physics i think but again it’s very subtle. She *will* get a lot of doujin. But I like her. even if she feels maybe a bit too Mythra
i’m sure people will dislike glimmer for being the antagonistic one in the heroes but i say let her girlboss. she just wanted to die for a cause and is scared and confused.
oh yeah lore stuff, it’s confirmed Ghondor is N and M’s kid, which while adding to the “Noah is bad at naming” gag, also makes me ask what took Z so long to decide to revive him as Moebius. For the amusement? even then you’d think it’d hit harder if he had to either do it directly after his death when he knew people there or many centuries later when there were more of his descendants to kill rather than, like, 3. maybe he just wanted the sweet spot where ghondor was still alive but there were more of his kids to kill
that’s all i can think of for now

Random rant time! This picture has always bugged me and I'm going to tell you why
This meeting between Sothe and Micaiah supposedly took place around 10 years before Radiant Dawn, yet Micaiah doesn't look like she's aged at all?
And yes, yes, I know that she's Branded, and she ages differently, BUT
She shouldn't really age THAT much slower than a regular human. I mean, look at this chart that was included in the Tellius Recollections book (lovingly translated here):
Tumblr media
Now, this shows the number of years each laguz/branded has to live in order to age the equivalent of 1 beorc year. So for a lion laguz, they age about 1 year for every 3 years that pass.
Notice that heron branded are not included on this list, but considering that heron laguz have a lifespan in between a lion and a dragon laguz (though significantly closer to the former's), then a heron branded should have a lifespan in between a lion and a dragon branded. Which means Micaiah should age about 1 year for every 1.5 to 2 years that pass.
So how is it that, in the span of 10 years, she has barely aged at all? At the very least, she should appear to be about 10 to 11 years old in this photo.
Additionally, the story itself seems to imply that Micaiah is in her mid-twenties, considering she was alive during the Serenes massacre, which took place about 20 years before Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn. (They explicitly say 20 years in both games, which makes zero sense, since 3 years take place in between the start of PoR and RD, but whatever. Consistency who?)
But that makes no sense either. It's implied that the branded only start aging slowly around puberty. In PoR, Soren mentions that he only started noticing that he was aging differently about 3 years ago... hence why he looks 16 even though he's probably around 18-20 years old. Plus, when Ike and Soren first met in Gallia, Ike mentions that Soren looked to be "around his age". But if Soren was really aging only 1 year every 3.33 years since their first meeting as children, then he would look a lot younger at the start of PoR. And yet he only looks a little younger than Ike.
And like, I am aware that the timeline is not exact. Almedha mentions that she hasn't seen Ashnard in 20 years, yet Izuka says that Almedha lost her infant son 15 years ago. Obviously one of those numbers are wrong. Almedha couldn't have cut off all ties with Ashnard 5 years before Soren was born.
These inconsistencies just frustrate me.
But my point stands. There's no way that Micaiah could have barely aged in 10 years, unless the lifespan of a heron branded is even longer than that of a dragon branded, which makes no sense. Micaiah should have been drawn to look closer to Sothe's age.
(Also, and this is only tangentially related, IS needs to stop pushing the whole Micaiah and Sothe are brother and sister thing, since they get married at the end of Radiant Dawn by default. Like, it would be one thing if it was something you could opt into it by building their support to A level, but they already start at A level from the very beginning. Which means, in order to prevent them from getting married, you have to 1. know about their paired ending ahead of time and 2. purposely delete their support. I will accept that Micaiah thought of Sothe as her little brother when they were both street urchins, but it's quite clear from her avid jealousy over Ike that her feelings for Sothe are a whole lot less platonic in Radiant Dawn. FE heroes literally gave Micaiah and Sothe an alt where they are dressed as a bride and groom, and yet Micaiah STILL introduces Sothe as her brother. What the fuck, Fire Emblem?)
(Like, IS, I know you have an incest kink. But can you maybe not??)
I like Micaiah and Sothe's dynamic and how it so closely parallels the bond and history between Ike and Soren. But I don't appreciate lazy writing and timelines that contradict themselves.

Back at the Kang house the next night, Cam’s mom and dad got ready to go out on a date. Paenji came downstairs wearing a nice ruffly dark brown dress and some fancy makeup* and jewelry and hugged Cam. “You look so pretty, Umma.” Cam said. “Thanks nooboo.” Paenji said, and she kissed Cam on the cheek. “Yeah, you look good P.” Iseul said, grinning at her sister-in-law. “Thanks.” Paenji said. “Would you mind looking after her?” She asked. “I don’t mind, I’ll watch Cammy.” Iseul answered her sister-in-law. Paenji grinned. “I meant Cam should keep an eye on you.” She joked. “Shut up.” Iseul said, but she laughed too along with Paenji and Cam.
“Also ma, I’m 17.” Cam reminded her mom. I don’t need to be watched or babysat.” Paenji smiled. “I know, Cammy.” She patted Cam’s cheek. “You’re growing up so fast. It seems like it was just yesterday when Min Jun and I brought you home from the hospital. Cece was 10 and so excited to have a baby sister, and even Iseul held you despite saying she was was scared she’d drop you.” She said fondly as Iseul grinned. “I remember that day too, you made a ‘who the heck is this?’ face at me and then made cooing noises and almost smiled.” Iseul added, smiling at Cam. Cam smiled too. “I knew you were cheesy from day one.” She joked, and Iseul laughed. “It’s funny, Is, because you don’t want kids which I totally understand, but your side of the family’s genes are so strong that Cammy and Cece look the most like you, except they have my eye color and nose.” Paenji said. Iseul grinned. “They really do.” She said, smiling at her niece.
Cam smiled to herself. "I wonder if my kids will look more like Pipes or me or both. Not that'd I care who they looked like but it would be so cute if they had Piper’s curly hair and eyes and my nose and smile." She admitted out loud. Her auntie Iseul's eyes widened and her mom raised her brows. "What?" She asked. Cam hastily added. "We're not pregnant, I mean in the future." Her mom shook her head, smiling. "You took a year off my lifespan, Cammy." She joked. "But that's great, nooboo. I remember you telling me you weren't sure about kids but with Piper you seem more sure." Cam smiled. "Yeah, I can imagine that with her, when we're in our late twenties." Paenji smiled. "Don't make me wait too long to be a grandma, though." She joked, and Cam groaned playfully. "But jokes aside, that's great Cammy. I'm glad you see that with Piper. Your dad was the same, you know, he told me after our first date he was already imagining how our kids would be like, and our wedding and where we'd live." She said. "You clearly get his sappiness." Iseul added teasingly, and Cam made a playful face at her before grinning.
