Making exceptions
Baji x fem!reader
yikes i need copium AND LOTS OF IT (reminds me of a certain long-haired cult leader, or something)
Here's to a good tokyo rev fic debut🙇‍♀️🥂
Warnings: delinquent style™ hurt/comfort to fluff and lots of swearing (but that's on brand for tr anyways)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Where the hell were you?! I was-" Baji practically broke down the rooftop door, pausing when he noticed your red, cried out face.
You quickly looked away even though you knew he already saw your tears. You've been avoiding him all day, knowing that he'll realise something is up with you straight away if you talked to him.
You thought you finally got him off your trail by sneaking onto the rooftop to cry it out but somehow he saw you leaving.
"Who do I need to kill?" The ominous tone of that question both completely surprised you yet felt completely on-brand for him.
"Don't... go beating up people... please..." you forced out, trying to overpower your hiccups.
"That's not what I was asking. Who the fuck do I need to kill?"
You flinched a little. "I know *hic* you wouldn't..." you knew the basic gist of Toman. That isn't what they do. You wiped your tear-stained cheeks, finally looking up at him. He looked livid, or atleast it looked like an angry face with your blurred vision.
He sighed. "Just tell me."
You can't possibly do that, because the person who made you cry is him. You see, you are hopelessly in love with Baji Keisuke. But the only thing he seems even remotely interested in is his gang. Which is fine, but it really does get to you sometimes.
You've tried everything to stop crushing on him but unfortunately for you, your stubborn heart refuses to let up.
"It's me..." you lied, making up some excuse of failing a test you studied really hard for.
"Did you really think I'd fall for that, idiot?"
You figured. He's too smart for his own good sometimes. It always takes you by surprise, considering his abysmal grades. Definitely not book smart. Or maybe his gang activities just keep him too busy to consider picking up a book.
You looked away again and heard the sound of him sitting down next to you.
"You seriously piss me off when you don't tell me what's wrong. You're lucky you're a girl, or I would beat your ass when you do that."
You laughed somewhat dryly, wiping away the tears on your cheeks. "Lucky me..."
A short silence followed, only interrupted by your ocassinal hiccups and sniffles.
"Are you gonna tell me or do I have to break my 'no-hitting-women' rule?" You could feel his eyes on you. You don't want an innocent person to recieve a beating and saying it's your own problem clearly didn't work, so your only option is....
"Listen... this isn't the best situation to say I'm about to say, but hear me out." You looked up, staring at the bright blue sky. Your vision was starting to clear up.
You didn't see it, but he raised an eyebrow in question.
"I like you. No, I'm in love with you." It simultaneously felt like there was a weight lifted off your shoulders and that ten more were placed on top. You're just desperate to ruin your friendship with him, aren't you?
"I knew that! Why the fuck are you crying over me...?" His words brought your still slightly red, glassy eyes to his, and a sentence jumbled in your throat, coming out as a strange groan.
"You k-knew?! This whole time?!" You tried again, clenching your shirt in your hand.
"You were making it pretty fucking obvious. Even Chifuyu noticed you acting weird." Baji still looked angry, this time at you, but you had a feeling he was very relieved deep down.
"Then... why didn't you say anything?" You held your hand against your forehead in embarrasment. Were you really being that obvious?
"I was waiting for you to confess, did you expect me to casually say 'it's real obvious you're crushing on me' one day?" He raised a brow, moving a part of his hair away from his eyes.
"Fair enough..." the fact he waited for you to confess on your own accord sparked a certain feeling in your chest. Speaking of confessions...
"So, uhh, what's your answer...?" you're not sure why you're even asking. He's made it clear multiple times he isn't interested in girls and relationships.
It is the entire reason you've been on the verge of tears all day.
"Why the hell not. I've been looking for new thrills lately anyways." Your eyes widened, taking a few seconds to properly process his words. You must have looked spaced out of your mind at that moment.
He said it non-chalantly, like he couldn't care less if it was you or another girl but somehow you knew that wasn't the case. You knew he was glad that it's you.
"Well, I'll be damned." You were honestly in too much shock to properly react to the fact he just agreed to be your boyfriend.
He smiled at you widely, showcasing his sharp teeth. "What's up with that reaction? You want me to beat your ass?"
"I'm happy! Trust me, I'm happy!" You yelled out as if you were scared but you knew he didn't mean it.
Does this mean you'll be the primary target if Baji gets into trouble with another gang and they decide to take revenge? How will your life change now? Will your parents approve of a boyfriend like him? Somehow, you never really thought about things like that until that moment.
...Hmmm, maybe the danger is worth it.

Here's my 2 cents on the Yotsuya gang:
If I remember correctly Kojiro is not actually the president, he's introduced as the vice president, and Ryusei is never explicitly stated to be any specific rank in that gang either. So this leaves open the possibility that there's someone else who's above all three of them that's being referred to as 'he' by the new guy (who's name I currently cannot remember). Judging by reactions I think Kojiro and Ryusei also know who he is, and I don't think it's Kisaki either because I don't think Kisaki would have the history with Ryusei and Kojiro that would make them react like that.
I bet 'hes' probably some cult leader like character who's the one actually running Yotsuya, and 'he' makes certain people in his circle get the same tattoo or something to show connection/serve as a reminder that they'll be forever bound to him and not everyone in that circle knows each other, which is why new guy seems to have never met Ryusei and Kojiro but still have this connection with them.
I feel like I'm really reaching at the last part but I get that vibe that 'he' is probably a weirdo and creepy as fuck.
Anyways, I hope you have a great day and anyone reading this should drink some water ✨✨
Yeah that's correct! Kojiro is the vice captain and Ryusei calls himself the special attack captain.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now it's said the gang was first created from them and their bond, before it was a proper gang it was just a bunch of random delinquent's hanging around Ryusei and Kojiro.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So it's almost like someone came along and made them into a gang. Like something had to change to make them into the uniformed gang they became. And I wouldn't be surprised if this was whoever their leader is. So I think you could be onto something with "he" being this leader. The main question would be why would he hunt his own members? Though they did just lose against toman so it's possible this was some kind of punishment for the other members.

Thanks for the kind words. Tbf that's sort of the ending I expected bc the sanons (expect emma. She's babygirl fr. Did nothing wrong in her entire life) are Rich people 😒 (smh. These mfs harassing reader when they could just go to therapy)
Also can you tell me a bit more about the toman and tenjiku sorocities (like ik they're all that but WHY? Can their gang connections rlly extend to the educational world. Like ik they can pay hush money but I feel like it's no that simple. You get me?)
(Also I wannq hear about my baes the bajitrio. Ik they're prolly just as complicit in all this but I still wanna hear about them bc they're my favs)
Yeahhhh! Okay it's Monster's lore time!
So let me explain how the sororities work briefly.
The university was once Shinichiro's Alma matter. Basically, and the number one fraternity was the Black Dragons. Eventually, the Black Dragons had a dispute and split into two factions (long before Mikey and Izana came, so they didn't find them here in this fic- the Toman faction and Tenjiku faction)
They ended up becoming rivals until Mikey made peace with Izana recently.
Now, as for connections, in my country, fraternities are mostly cult groups that are infamous lots of crime, drug selling, violence and sexual assault. They get a lot of financial backing from their usually wealthy investors or parents who were once part of the cult groups and the university staff have no other option but to put up with them. Sometimes they control the school or have very strong connections to the staff.
So I incorporated that concept into the creation of Toman and Tenjiku!
AH THE BAJI TRIO! they're going to make an appearance in this chapter and the next few ones!
(The sano siblings should go to therapy ♡ I agree - what should I call you btw anon?)

Strong Love (Kurokawa Izana x Reader)
Fantasy Au
Angst with happy ending
Word count: 2.05K
"My queen, is there something bothering you?" He always called her that when they were alone. The word sometimes made her heart throb in happiness, other times it made her cry because she believed that she wasn't worthy enough to be called that. Irony indeed, where a mere word can cause a great rift in one's heart. She was just a commoner, a believer in fate, and someone who the King fancied.  
"No, your highness, it is nothing to be concerned about," She replied as she flashed him a closed-eye smile. 
"You don't have to call me that when we are by ourselves," He said, the king was a beautiful man, his long white hair that fall on his face naturally enhancing his beauty. His purple eyes resembled rare gemstones which makes any living being stop their tracks only to have another look at them. 
"I shall be mindful of that," She replied as she held his hand and leaned her frame to him as he wrapped his hands around her pulling her close to him. 
The empire of Tenjiku, the most powerful region of the continent. They were well-known for their refined army and brutal training. The king of the empire, Kurokawa Izana had kept the legacy of the empire alive. After the death of his parents and his beloved brother of another kingdom, he sought to become someone of great value and would strive to make the world a better place. 
He and his loyal disciples were seated at a round table, discussing the agenda of the month. These sessions were usually of great value, the members of the board along with the king never were to miss this meeting under any circumstances. 
"Your highness, Valhalla and Toman have merged, "Kakucho, the most loyal knight of the king spoke. Toman was a rival nation to Tenjiku, the sole reason why none of them declare war is because of the respect they pose for Sano Shinichiro, the king of Black Dragon.
Alas, that treaty had become history when Kisaki Tetta, the dark mage of the evil cult "Hanmas" had poisoned king Shinichiro and spread the rumor that Toman's ruler Manjirou had assassinated him for power. 
Safe to say that both nations were on bad terms when Black Dragon became a subsidiary to Tenjiku, as per King Shinichiro's will. 
"Toman is getting bigger, they are threatening our borders, we must do something or they might declare war," Ran Haitani, the older lord of the Noble Haitani family who had been serving under the Kurokawa family as their advisers spoke. 
"What can we even do in this situation?" Shion, the acting ruler of Black Dragons questioned. He was known as the most trusted mate to the Izana after Kakucho. 
"We are surrounded by allies, they won't side with Toman, "Mochi, the leader of the special arms unit gave his input. 
"I wouldn't be so sure of that, we need something concrete," King Izana made a valid point. 
"What about the Akashi family? They seem to be planning something" Mucho, a spy under Tenjiiku. His main purpose was to get information about Toman and their allies and report them to Izana.
"I am good friends with the 2nd prince, Haruchiyo, he has promised to stay neutral." Lord Rindou said. Lord Rindou and 2nd Prince Haruchiyo, met on several occasions. They had been planning an assassination of the 1st prince Takeomi and 1st princess Senju, in order for Haruchiyo to become the Lord of the Akashi family and expand the Haitani territory. 
"Yea, good friends," Shion mocked, only to receive a threatening glare from the older Haitani. Legally, Shion held more power than the Haitanis but somehow was submissive to them. 
"It has come to my notice that the nation of Moebius had cut ties with Toman and has become a free nation," Kakucho said. Moebius's King 'Osanai' was working with the Hanmas, Manjirou suspected that Mobius was responsible for Shinichiro's death but he didn't have any evidence so he broke ties with Osanai instead of war.
"In order to guarantee our complete authority over Moebius, We have to ask for their 1st Princess's hand, An arranged marriage between the house of Kurokawa and Moebius". (Just imagine Osanai having a sister or something).
"No, I have (Y/N), I do not need another woman in my life," King Izana blurt out without any hesitation leaving no room for argument. 
"That's all for today, Dismiss," The king announced. The moment Izana gave his word, the members of the board bowed down in respect and went to attend their respective agenda, except for one. 
"Shion? was there something you needed to address to me personally?" Izana asked, Unknowing to him and Shion that another presence was listening to their conversation, unintentionally. 
"Please reconsider, your highness, power is what the kingdom needs right now, agree to the marriage with the Moebius nation," Shion said as he looked deep into the eyes of Izana. Izana was a great ruler but he isn't going to be young forever. 
"You can have lady (Y/n) as your mistress, she is a smart woman, she knows the kingdom's dynamics. Surely, she will come to terms with it," Shion continued, knowing that the king has her in his mind. He had always thought that it was a pity that (Y/n) wasn't born to a lord. Otherwise, she would be a great queen. 
"Alright, I'll think about it,"Izana said as he sighed. Shion though more about the empire and Izana was thankful for that. He wasn't going to agree to the marriage but he had to do some thinking. In order for the empire to continue, he needed a heir.  
'Figures,' She thought to herself dishearten, as she made her way back to the King's room. On her way back she heard a few maids gossiping among themselves. Sad to say, they held a higher status when compared to her. 
'That commoner? I wonder what the king saw in her.'
'Maybe she is a spy for Toman.'
'What a Harlot. She seduced the King.'
'The King would be better off with someone else.'
Rumors formed a dark cloud around her. She knew that she was not the one to be by the king's side. All these years she had been surrounded by riches and fortune. The king had spoiled her rotten. She was possessive of the King, she loved him with all her heart. Perhaps, she was being greedy. What is she? The King's lover? A commoner? and...? Who?
She decided that she would leave, she wrote a letter before walking away from the place that she never belonged to. 
My Love, 
If you find this letter, it means that I no longer wish to be found. I have come to realize that; all these years I had been deluding myself into thinking that I am someone of great importance because I am loved by the king. I kept on believing that what the king and I have will be eternal. I must thank you for everything you have done for me. 
I have come to know how beautiful and giving love is because of you. I am truly blessed. I wish happiness and good fortune for you and your queen. My King is an honorable man, the best ruler of the continent. Someone like you should deserve the best and I do not believe that I am the one to hold the spot. 
Do you remember the time when we first met? It was raining that day too. I still feel embarrassed that I spoke to you with malice when you jumped in my garden. I was ignorant of the fact that you were the king. You laughed at my outburst and spoke to me like a friend. You told me about how you dreamed to make the nation a better place with such passion. I hope that you still have the same determination as before. 
For I will go on a journey to find out who I was before I was blinded by greed. Before I lived in luxury before I was blessed by your love. 
I am no royalty, I am not worthy of staying by your side as your significant other. Perhaps, this is god's will. Please respect my wishes. I do not think I will be able to live with the fact that your highness will be a laughing stock because of my presence. Take care of yourself. 
(Y/N)(L/N)
"Kakucho!! Find (Y/n) and bring her here this instant," A worried King called for his most loyal knight. He crumbled the letter in anger. 
"Yes, your highness," Kakucho replied as he summoned Mochi to assemble couple of search parties for Izana's most prized possession. 
'SHIT!! How can I be so stupid,' Izana thought as he strolled the corridor, snapping at anyone who approaches him. He mentally cursed his stupidity. He knew that she was aware about the possible interview, he saw her silhouette when he was speaking to Shion. Yet, he did nothing to ease her worries. He didn't care about Moebius or Toman. The only thing he doesn't want to let go is her. 
After sending a dozen of search parties, his lover was yet to be found. Izana thought for a while, any clue that would help reunite his lover to him. Think! Think!. 'The river near the west forest'. It was a place she would often go to ease her mind. She would always visit the place at least twice a month. That's the only clue he got. 
He took the nearest horse and rode towards the river. After a few minutes, he found someone, it was no doubt her, any beauty in the world cannot surpass hers. 
"I knew I would find you here," A smooth voice said. She knew that voice all too well. The king was standing right in front of her. How he knew her more than she did herself. 
"Your Highness," She called as she lowered her head in respect. Holding her gown tight and biting down her lower lip to avoid bursting down in tears. 
"I believe I told you not to call me that," Izana said as he took another step towards her to close the distance. With every step he took towards her, she took one backwards. Eventually leading to him caging her to the nearest tree.
"You mustn't be here. It's rude to the future Queen of the empire." She said, trying to find an escape route, to have a tough exterior only to gently pick up what's left of her in loneliness. 
"The only Queen I want to keep by my side is you," He said as he placed his forehead on hers, holding her close. Again, just a few words and he already made his way inside her heart. 
"I cannot be your mistress, I will not. You can call me selfish but I cannot bear to see the man I love in the arms of another," She cried out, placing her hands in front of her face in an attempt to cover her teary face. 
"I promise you. It will never happen. I agree that traditions are important and in order to continue the legacy of our kingdom. Don't forget, this is my kingdom, I am free to do what I want. The only thing I want is you," He spoke out his deepest thoughts leaving no room for doubt. Still, there was a dark cloud lurking around her telling her that this is wrong and the king will never be happy with her. 
"My love, my heart only beats for you," He said as he held both his hands in hers pulling her closer, with their chests barely touching. All her previous determination of running away to find herself vanished in thin air. 
"Will you marry me?" He continues. The four words he said with a slight blush on his face was just enough to make her heart skip a beat. She realized that she was the best version of herself when she was with him and it was the same for him. 
"Yes" She replied as he leaned down to capture her lips with his own.

I have a lot of things to say about the recent chapters of tokyorev. It's all funny I swear.
First off. HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE TO PUT ON THESE GOD DAMN PLATFORMS!? I feel like when the kmg members got these things they came with instructions on how to put them on lol.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Second off. Looking at these 2 pictures, and looking at the background of all the people is kinda funny.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For the second pic there is literally only one fight going on the rest is just the kmg members looking like undead zombies. Bet Hanma taught them that. Then if you look in the distance I think those might be toman members? Maybe. But it looks like a 2nd grade cult that you make about gossip.

One Hour. One Book: Romans
COMMENTARY:
Paul is making his closing argument before Theophilus,  who is the Equestrian who sits on the Judea desk of the Praetorian Guard, which is the executive strata of the administrative state of the Roman Republic. He has an identical function as John LeCarre's George Smiley in MI6, a member of the executive council of the Praetorian Guard.. Judging from Philippians, 1:13,  Paul nails the landing with his closing argument.  ,
Your observation in your commentary on Luke that Paul was going to Rome to assure the Romans that Christianity was no threat to the Tomans is exactly correct. The thing is, The Romans knew it before Jesus Accension at Pentecost because of the Talking Cross of the Gospel of Peter. The only pertinent part of Romans for the Romans is Romans 13:1 - 7, which validates the oath the centurions submit to the secular rule of law that creates their guild withing the Republic. The rest of it is Jewish eyewash.
He is also the Bishop of the clandestine Roman Christian Fellowship of the Italian Cohort  which he refers to in Hebrews 13:24. The euangelion that Pilate sends to Tiberius immediately after Resurrection goes through Theophilus (which is probably a typic name acting like the Mr. Big code name in the Great Escape. to disguise the head of the Christian cell system throughout the Legions that we can identify as the Mithra cults, which are local cells in the Jesus conspiracy) It is dangerous to be a Christian because its association with Tiberius and the execution of Sejanus.
My assumption is that Jesus is crucified in 33. Titus Kennedy and Peter J. Williams have settle on this dat based on the astronomy of a lunar eclipse that a colleague of Williams has established. Roman Standard Time doesn't begin to obtain in the Christian narrative until Acts 10, when Peter and Cornelius swapped stories about Jesus. Peter's executive summary of Jesus's carreer in Acts 10:34 - 43 shapes the narrative of the Gospel of Mark that emerges from Quelle, the intelligence archive of the X Legion that began to assemble itself with the surveillance file the Romans maintained on John the Baptist that Josephus employs to create his portrait of john the Baptist in The Jewish Wars.
Here's the thing I want you, Dr. Randall D. Smith, to understand; many of your observations are within a cunt hair of my own, ( such as the timing of the Gospel of John and Luke's general motivation for the preparation of Acts as an amicus brief for the defense of Paul in Rome), but the critical historic method you employ is, metaphorically speaking, like using a geocentric instrument to navigate in a heliocentric system. It' is why, in classic astrology, Mars seems to go into retrograde relative to Earth.: it's because our naïve perspective is geocentric.
And that's the problem with the apologetics of the Total Depravity Gospel of the Pro-Life Fascism of the solo scriptura narrative of  Evangelican Calvinism as well as the Marxist impulse of the Jesus Seminar and anti-theist criticism. When you come to understand that the Talking Cross signifies the covenant between God and the centurions of the Italian Cohort  and that Hebrews is based on the triangulation of Melchizedek, Jesus and the triangulation of Romans 13:1 - 7, the faith of the centurion in Matthew 8:10 and the servant leader ethos of Mission, men, Self as an expression of the secular rule of law, your faith in the Truth of Jesus as the Son of God will become absolutely transparent to you and all you pastor.

The Great Hunt
Prologue and some
Really starts with a bang. A confusing bang. But a bang!
Disclaimer: this is my first read thru but I’ve watched all of the show thus far and been spoiled on some book things. So… I’m going to lean into that. Enjoy figuring out what I know, and what I think I know, and what I just don’t. Also s/x I add commentary when I edit.
Spoilers for the first and second book and all of season 1 under the cut. Potential spoilers for later books -idk if they’re light spoilers or not.
This is the continuation of my thoughts on the twot books. To find my thoughts on TEOTW see [#many thoughts on twot teotw]. The rest of the series will just be tagged [#series of many thoughts on twot].
Karaethon Cycle page
Oh so *this* is the prophecy! Pretty ominous for a chosen one.
Prologue: In the Shadow
Even the prologue has a title!
Wheel of time symbol
POV “Bors”
Whoever makes these clothes really has to be side eying ‘ah yes here is a list of money to make me clothing to hide my figure. Height included. I will pick them up at the witching hour next Wednesday. They are for normal activities. Don’t tell anyone I was here.’
… or there are a lot of dead tailors in this world. Which I doubt. You can only kill so many
Don’t like those servants
Yup. These are not the good guys. Disposing of servants? Those are people! Probably…
“Blank eyes. Empty eyes. A doll’s eyes. Eyes more dead than death.” -Bors looking into one of the servants eyes. Yup that’s the horror part and also something is wrong with these servants. Srsly wrong
… that’s how it works with allistics and eyes right? I mean dead does seem worse than ‘so full of life(?) soulless that it’s just too intense’ to me.
‘This may be an evil secret society meeting where we use fake names and hide or faces but I need to look good’ 1/4 the folks at this gathering
That’s your assumption dude. Maybe it’s misdirection huh?
A Traveling person?!
Yea he should get some gloves
Two Aes Sedai!
Well that’s a cult
Hey that’s a lot of red! Balzo? That you?
“One of the Forsaken, perhaps.”
“…rotting while they still lived.” -(Bors) on male channelers and the effects of the taint on saidin. So… that rotting part has been mentioned before. Is that literal body or like rotting of their sanity? (Editor me- or is they even true?)
Well fuck you very much Bors
Why does no one wear gloves?
It’s Balzo!
I’m sry. “He Whose Name Must Not Be Uttered” really? Well this really is the right series to replace that other one with someone called something very similar.
“Soon the Wheel of Time will be broken. Sun the Great Serpent will die, and with the power of that death, and death of Time itself…” -Ba’alzamon to the gathered Darkfriends is guessing. Yea. Well… that’s a lot! No thnx
But the rest just sounds like the Dark One gets to be in control of the pattern instead to whatever. Is that better actually? Cuz I don’t believe these promises. These guys call y’all worms and make you lay on the floor and chant stuff. That’s a cult. You aren’t getting shit
So. Mat. Perrin. Rand.
But don’t say which was the Dragon.
Wtf... mmmmmm…
Oh ok. Just getting orders.
Atha’an Miere = the Sea Folk. (More of the Old Tongue) [people sea; what does Tu mean? Does an mean the?]
So tethering oneself to the Dark One seems like a bad move.
Bors orders: 1) return to Tarabon and redouble efforts on good works. Whatever that means. 2) Watch out for the EF boys. 3) “…regarding those who have landed at Toman Head, and the Domani. Of this you will speak to no one.”
…and looking at the map. That’s a) Falme. On the western shore. And b… it’s the boat people! (I know their actual name but imma call them the Boat People, for now)
Oh this is a vision!
That’s a nightmare vision. I’m not sure that’s the best way to communicate information honestly. Terrifying sure.
… unless it’s like, mind control? Like seeding a command into Bors which he will know or be forced to do when it triggers.
“…the Blacksmith, the Swordsman, and the Trickster.” -(Bors) nicknames for the EF-b
So Balzo is willing to kill them now. That’s a good choice on his part. Bad for them
“Blue eyes could mean the nobility of Andor…” really?! Wow. Nice
Seals?
Oh his bags. Ok
Dome of Truth?
Almoth Plain? To the map! Oh it’s near Tarabon and Falme

A snap from the cover photo shoot for the UK punk band Ed Banger & The Nosebleeds’ 1977 debut single 'Ain't Bin To No Music School',  as captured by Kevin Cummins: L-R: guitarist Vini Reilly (in striped blazer), singer Ed Banger (Ed Garrity), drummer Toby Toman (front) and bassist Peter Crooks.
The Nosebleeds were a short-lived punk band formed in Wythenshawe, Manchester, England in 1976. During their early days, they were known as Ed Banger and the Nosebleeds, until the departure of singer Ed Banger (Ed Garrity).
Though the band never recorded an album and released just one single, it is well known in modern rock history for the later success of its individual members, notably Morrissey (the Smiths), Billy Duffy (the Cult), and Vini Reilly (the Durutti Column).

Crítica: American Horror Story: Cult 7x05 Holes
¿Cómo implantar un estado de terror en una sociedad acostumbrada a ignorar todo lo que vaya más allá de su propio ombligo? Ese es el punto de partida y mayor reto para la revolución que propone Kai Anderson. Ha tardado cinco episodios en descubrir que la tarea no iba a ser tan sencilla. Será Beverly quién finalmente ilumine al líder: en la sociedad actual, acostumbrada a la violencia, no basta con saber lo que pasa, hay que ver lo que sucede. Sin unas imágenes que lo respalden, el miedo se convierte en una especie de fe. La televisión distorsiona y nos aleja de la realidad, haciendo que ésta parezca una película. La sensación de realismo ya no se puede transmitir con palabras. Si quieres impresionar, debes incluir al publico en el sentimiento que pretendes transmitir. El espectador debe sentirse parte de la historia: debe ver y oír los gritos de la víctima, hasta que sienta que puede oler y palpar su sangre. Nada es real si no lo has visto. Partiendo de esa base, la muerte de la presentadora de televisión Serina Belinda habría sido el ejemplo perfecto para que la población tomase conciencia de lo que sucede en su vecindario. Sin embargo, la censura y la corrupción entran en juego y acaban por enterrar el vídeo de la muerte de la joven en una tumba de papeleo. Para acabar con el problema, Beverly propone un asesinato en directo del responsable que frenó la emisión del homicidio de Serina, Bob, aprovechando además a quitarse de en medio al jefe. Sin embargo, la misión se complica cuando descubren que Bob tiene sus propios secretos, un secreto en forma de sumiso que se transformaría en una noticia que haría sombra al asesinato del propio presentador. Esto no debe frenar a un verdadero creyente. Por lo que Kai y Beverly toman el control y se deshacen de ambos hombres. Con ello logran su objetivo pero también encuentran su propio talón de Aquiles.
La idea del triunfo de la revolución ha mantenido ocupado a Kai todo este tiempo, y no ha sido capaz de ver que ese gran cambio que propone debe partir desde dentro de su propio grupo. Una secta que ha de pensar como un solo individuo y actual como tal. Volverá a ser Beverly quién ilumine a Kai haciéndole ver la brecha interna que existe en el conjunto. Un problema que parte de la debilidad de alguno de sus miembros. La única cura para la flaqueza del equipo es el miedo, que se transformará en fuerza al ser un sentimiento común del grupo. Para ello, deben asesinar al miembro más débil, fortaleciendo así a los demás. Mientras tanto, Ally sigue inmersa en su propia pesadilla potenciada por sus miedos internos. Será su odiada vecina Meadow quién terminará de despertar a la asustada mujer. Cegada por sus propios fantasmas, Ally lleva tiempo sin ser capaz de vislumbrar lo que se le presenta delante de sus narices. Pues vive inmersa en un cuento de hadas, que es una mentira orquestada por su mujer, Ivy. ¿Hasta que punto el fin justifica los medios? No parece que Ivy esté equivocada en su objetivo, sin embargo, no creo que meterse en una secta que acostumbra a matar gente inocente sea la mejor manera de alcanzarlo. Al menos no es lo ideal.
