Imagine the beast pirates learning you are a criminal mastermind

Kaido: *going over a cargo manifest* we will sell these in Port Chugal, prepare them for shipment.

King: Port Chugal won't buy pirate goods anymore, the world government found out they've been trading with us, so they replaced the king there.

Kaido: That's the third distribution market I've had to change in the last month. First the Bourgeois Kingdom, then Ballywood, and now Port Chugal. How are they finding my warehouses?

Queen: we don't know at the moment, but we're working on it

You: *King's assistant* I would like to point out something that all three have in common.

King: Silence.

Kaido: let em talk, I want to hear what they have to say.

You: they were all common stops on Captain Rondow's transport route, who was captured almost three months ago by the world government.

Kaido: You think the poor bastard broke under torture?

You: It appears so, and from the other reports we're getting I'm guessing they have figured out how you conduct your exportation operation. *Hands King the reports*

King: *Skims them* we spent years building this system.

You: which means building another will be faster this time. I'm guessing how they're locating our goods is by the fact that while it's labeled under a company that doesn't have any paperwork officially filed in countries we claim it's from.

Kaido: what are we supposed to do, get a business permit?

You: yes, but actually no. Now any new businesses from any nations in your territory will come under scrutiny by the world government. So I think we should find any failing, but long-established companies, and bail them out in exchange for slipping our illicit cargo into their product distribution.

King: that... might actually work, but there's no way we can guarantee their loyalty.

You: that's why you give them a small percentage of the profits and gather blackmail material. Most rich people are sick fucks will have skeletons in their closet, you just have to look for it.

Kaido: I'll entrust the task to you, and in the meantime we'll have Yamato fill in for you with King.

King: what! No! Your son is... not great at paperwork.

Kaido: Sorry bud, but I'd like to see what they can do on their own, so I'm setting them loose.

Returns from setting up the new network seven months later

Kaido: I just got the finance report for the last quarter

You: *literally just got off the boat* Sir?

King: Your network is more efficient than what we had set up.

Kaido: you're getting promoted, so you can manage it from here.

You: But I was really looking forward to working with King again.

Kaido: then you'll work under him not me.

You: I'm keeping my desk in your office.

King: For someone who ruthlessly castrated a man to get him to do what they wanted, you are very clingy and sentimental.

You: I was well within my rights to revoke that man's dick privilege, you had no idea how man people he's assaulted. I did that town a fucking favor by pickling that man's junk

Kaido: you pickled it!

You: Yes I did, how else, so you think I got an entire town to look the other way about our ships coming into the harbor?

Kaido: I never would have thought of that... You know when I met you I never would have guessed you'd be an asset to my operations. You seemed too soft and naive, too kind.

You: *shrugs* Well thank you for thinking I'm kind, but I just so happen to hate you less than the world government, and you have more money than the revolutionary army. And Lin Lin and her family freaks me out.

King: don't forget Akagami and Whitebeard won't hire you since you've worked with us.

You: *clicks your tongue* and I regret it every day.

Hiii Shan,

I cannot remember for the life of me if I asked you about it or not and tumblr search does not help. I've been listening to the @the-conversation-pod round-up ep and apart from making me burst out laughing in public transport, it got me thinking about 'I Cannot Reach You' and the friends-to-lovers trope. Have you ever listed your fav dramas that use it? If not, can I ask for one pretty pretty please?

Thank you for listening to the @the-conversation-pod! And this is such a good question, because friends to lovers is actually a hard trope to get right and often isn't executed that well. It's also a term that is often misapplied to mean something more like friendly to lovers, aka a romance that starts out with the main pair meeting and keeping things platonic for awhile before they escalate to romance.

A true execution of the friends to lovers trope in its purest form is a relationship change narrative, and that requires an established and important friendship, a major transition in the way both members of the pair view each other, and most importantly, lots of angst. If there's no serious anxiety and fear about the changing feelings and losing the friendship present in the narrative, it's not actually friends to lovers, it's just a natural romantic relationship progression. So something like Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo, while a great story about a pair of college students who establish a friendship before eventually realizing they like each other, is not really a FTL as defined here. And my beloved Sing My Crush doesn't qualify either, because romantic feelings were present the entire time, just suppressed.

So with those parameters set, there are only a handful of dramas I think have done this really well. Onto the list:

I Cannot Reach You

You already mentioned this one, so let me just reiterate what I said on the podcast: it's the best friends to lovers bl ever made. This story absolutely nails the relationship change arc and puts us in Kakeru's shoes as he realizes his best friend since childhood 1) is gay and 2) has developed feelings for him, and takes us along for the ride as he decides what he wants to do with that. Yamato is the absolute picture of tortured angst and the whole thing is excruciating in the best way, because it makes the payoff so very sweet.

Fight For My Way

I am pretty sure I have recommended this show to you before, and I will keep right on doing it because it's a fantastic romcom and my favorite friends to lovers drama of all time. This one is heavier on the comedy beats, but still gets to the heart of the fear and anxiety, and also goes deep on how hard it is when one of the friends clues into their feelings much sooner than the other and hangs in as a loyal friend while nursing their wounded heart in private. Watching Dong Man finally figure out what the hell is going on and catch up to Ae Ra was one of the greatest pleasures of my years of drama watching.

Theory of Love

I said what I said and I meant it! This drama is controversial because it hits the angst really hard and pushes the characters to some ugly places and some people just can't deal, but it's such an authentic portrayal of how much it hurts to be in love with your oblivious friend, and how much we hurt ourselves by not being honest about our feelings in a misguided attempt to protect the relationship we already have. I love it dearly and will defend it to anyone.

Romance Is A Bonus Book

A bit on the lighter side, watching this drama is like curling up on the couch in a cozy sweater with your favorite book and a cup of tea. It manages to both take the relationship arc seriously while never once making you doubt that these friends will be okay, because they are truly ride or die. There is also an age gap at play here, so we have the added bonus of watching Dan Yi wrestle with her changing feelings for her best friend that she has always thought of as a little brother. I will never forget her staring into the mirror to practice telling Eun Ho "I don't see you as a man" and getting increasingly desperate as she realizes that is no longer true. *chef's kiss*

My Only 12%

See-iw and Cake, my beloveds! I love this pair a lot, and think this drama is a fantastic example of how powerful the friends to lovers trope can be when combined with a queer awakening and the added layer of fear that brings to the story in a non-bubble show. The arc of their close childhood friendship morphing through time, separation, and changing identities is so so good. This one comes with a caveat because the last two episodes of the show are abruptly bad and weird (New Siwaj *shakes fist*) but happily, the FTL arc is already complete by then and none of the nonsense messes with the couple.

Hospital Playlist

I know you know this one, but I cannot possibly finish this list without talking about Ik Jun and Song Hwa. This is such a slooooooooooow burn that plays out over 24 episodes, and it's brilliantly done. What I like most about this take on the trope is how mature and adult it is; these two are 40 year old booked and busy professionals, and they also value their friendship more than anything. I love that you get the whole arc of their relationship over 20 years as they meet, have initial sparks, don't get together for reasons, genuinely settle into a platonic friendship and date and even marry other people, and then realize their feelings are changing again later in life. The payoff after all this time and patience and quiet yearning is so beautifully earned.

Inaba-Q-Bin

Actually, while I'm Namatameposting, here's some trivia about the delivery service run by his parents.

When Namatame and Dojima do their Initial D shit in November, there's an animated cutscene that shows you a closeup of the logo and name on Namatame's truck. It says, "Inaba-Q-Bin" (いなば急便) and has a rabbit with a messenger bag as the logo. (I like the small bunny head being used for the voice marks on the logo that turn the は into ば. That's cute.)

This is a play on Yamato Transport, which has a service called "Ta-Q-Bin". Or rather, you can tell it's specifically a play on Yamato because of the "Q-Bin" part ("Ta-Q-Bin" is Yamato's trademark) and the use of the animal mascot. Yamato's identifying logo is that of a black cat with a kitten in its mouth. I suppose the rabbit's messenger bag in the Inaba-Q-Bin logo replaces the kitten here lol. The rabbit was likely chosen because of the legend of the Hare of Inaba.

#persona 4 #taro namatame #japanese mythology #Btw Kiki's Delivery Service is titled Witchy Ta-Q-Bin in Japanese #Should've let Namatame ride around on a broom kidnapping teenagers #can't believe they made the country that persona takes place in a real country!!!

you: excitedly telling me about your wonderful city and its wonderful transportation. me, immediately: okay but like how would the yanderes react to someone trying to look up their darling's skirt? and she like feels too shy or anxious to say anything?

a/n: sadfsdfsdf IT REALLY BE LIKE THAT SOMETIMES but also It Would Not Be a Fun Time To Be Honest™! thank you for the request and i did a pervert that tried to look up darling's skirt with a phone camera while she was standing in a train!

warning: female reader as requested, approx. 400 words each, public sexual harassment, offensive language towards others (not reader), mentions of violence

ayaka yamato ★ profile

uses her image as an Innocent Little GIrl™ to her advantage and makes herself seem as victimized as possible

if he's going to harass her darling, he better be ready for the consequences and ayaka is going to make them as bad as possible

The train was packed enough which, of course, made Ayaka's temper flare, but if the guy behind her bumped against her one more time--

She felt your arm around her waist tighten and she glanced at you, noting your obviously extremely anxious expression. She knew you didn't like crowds but there was no going around it, no matter how much she hated it too

When you pressed up even harder against her, Ayaka decided that it wasn't the train but something else entirely. Her eyes scanned the people around the two of you until it landed on some bald-headed loser sitting behind you.

The fact that the fat pig didn't free the seat for you already put him on her shit list but, oh, that wasn't even the worst thing he'd done! When Ayaka looked further down, she spotted where his hand was!

She let out the highest pitched scream she could, pulling you to the side a little so the two of you were equal distance from the absolute creep.

Everyone's eyes were immediately on the bald bitch.

"Sir! I can't believe you'd feel me up like that!" She clung to you, crocodile tears pooling in the corners of her eyes, her body wracking with fake tremors as she forced herself to tremble like a scared fawn.

Immediately, the crowd erupted with murmurs. People jeered and pointed, looking at him with disgust and noting that there were accusations from last week about a man that looked like him.

When the coward started to stutter out denials, the pussy businessman next to him immediately interrupted "No way, I think I saw him put his hand up a skirt!"

Why didn't you say something when you saw it then? Ayaka couldn't help but think. Still, she continued her façade, letting you 'comfort' her as the crowd all but lynched the guy that harassed you.

As a last resort, the guy tried to stand up and leave. However, everybody banded together and pushed the guy back into his seat.

Everybody started reassuring Ayaka, telling her that they’d turn him into the station police once the train stopped and that they’d make sure she’d get justice.

Outwardly, she expressed her gratitude as she slowly and gracefully wiped away her tears. Inwardly, she couldn’t help but be disgusted by these people.

She knew there were several people in the crowd that all saw him using his phone to peep on you but didn’t want to say anything. The only reason they were saying anything now was because she made a scene. At least now he was caught and you didn’t have to suffer.

She knew the last thing you would’ve wanted was to make a scene yourself. So, if she had to do it for you, well, so be it.

After all, nobody could touch you. Nobody but her.

ryouta watanabe ★ profile

would lose his shit

normally, he's very calm and collected, almost emotionless actually. you'd think he was a robot. but if he saw something like that? you'd see him turn into a monster real quick

Commuting with Ryouta was always an uneventful endeavor. In fact, most of the time, it was peaceful! He definitely enjoyed it; the rocking motion of the car, the gentle swoosh of the train, the way you'd lean against him all tired and soft.

Today, it wasn't like that. For some reason or another, the fates came together to conspire against the two of you. Not only was the train somehow packed but the two of you took a bit longer to board so the two of you were standing.

Ryouta wouldn't have minded if it was just him but he felt bad for you. He wanted so desperately to find somewhere for you to sit in.

There wasn't any.

So, the two of you were stuck standing and all he coul do was hold you close. He held onto one of the hand rails and you held onto his arm, face pressed close to his chest in an attempt at some sort of privacy.

He hated thinking about the way other bodies pressed against the other sides of you but it was a short ride and it would be over soon and then you would be free from them once again--

Ryouta felt you shift against him. You were inching away from something, pressing closer to him. His arm around your waist tightened and, instinctively, he looked behind you.

Behind you, to the man, sitting there with his phone underneath you, his camera open so he could peek up your skirt.

He felt his blood turn to lava in his veins. For a second, he was so angry that he didn't know what to do. He glanced at you, wondering if you knew.

Immediately, he got his answer because you had the most anxious uncomfortable expression on your face. His heart broke.

His body moved on instinct. His arm shot out, his palm so big that it encompassed the guy's entire face. He slammed the guy's head back and it hit the wall of the car with a sickening crack.

Ryouta didn't know if there was blood and he didn't care.

"You're disgusting, peeping under girls' skirts. You're scum. You're lucky we're in public or I would've fucking gutted you, you fucking pig." He spits out, truly spits out, saliva and all spraying across the man's face

Then, he lets go of the guy's face but only for a second. He readjusted his grip, grabbing him by the chin to truly look him in the eye.

"If I ever see you on this train ever again, I'll fucking take my pistol and I'll shower whatever you have in replacement for a brain in that empty skull of yours all over the walls of this car."

Then, as if he didn't just absolutely explode all over a stranger, Ryouta straightened himself, dusted off whatever particles he thought the stranger got on him.

He turned to you, that same expressionless face you've gotten so used to, and wrapped his arm around your shoulders.

After that entire thing, the crowds practically parted like the Red Sea for the two of you. Ryouta just wanted to get you as far away from that bastard as possible.

yeong-bae kigal ★ profile

the calmest out of the three outwardly but could definitely contend with ryouta inwardly loool

they're very level-headed about it tho so dont worry, it'll be dealt with in the way best way possible because they take care of you

Yeong-bae hated the fact that they were having you take the train but it couldn't be helped. If they had you take recognizable cars, the two of you would always be swarmed and the two of you wouldn't be able to get anywhere.

Still, to think that today, out all days, the train would be this full? It was a nightmare.

They tried not to think about everyone getting so close to you. They tried tor rationalize it in their head as the fact that they couldn't help it, that the crowd couldn't control it just as much as you couldn't. It helped but only a little bit.

Hopefully, their stop was soon and it would be over.

As always, Yeong-bae was hyperaware of your every move so, when you inched closer to them, your hand holding onto tgeir arm gripping them like a lifeline, they were immediately scanning around you, trying to see what was wrong.

It didn't take them long to see the ugly old man peeping up your skirt with his phone.

With swift moves, they pulled up their phone, taking a clear incriminating photo of the old man. It was obvious in the photo what he was doing. Then, as subtly as they could, Yeong-bae, dialed the station security and put it to his ear.

As the dial tone rang in their ear, they lowered their hand from the hand rail, wrapping their arm around your waist and pulling your body flush against theirs.

They turned you so the two of you swapped places and they bent down a little so their lips brushed against your ear "Are you okay?"

When you looked at them with those big doe eyes, your lips quivering and tears pooling, they decided that there was nothing you could say that could convince them that you were okay.

Thankfully, you had shook your head just as the station security answered.

In hushed tones, Yeong-bae described the man as best as he could, telling them that they'd come with their girlfriend to the station straight away with a photo of the man.

When Yeong-bae glanced at the pervert, he looked none the wiser and, even more disgustingly, the man was looking pretty happily at his phone. It made Yeong-bae’s blood boil to think that maybe, possibly, the thing he was looking at were photos of your underwear.

Only they could look at that.

Yeong-bae decided that turning the man in wasn’t enough. If the man ‘coincidentally’ dropped his wallet with his license and work ID, well, that was on him, wasn’t it? It was the least he could do for interrupting Yeong-bae’s date after all.

Chapter 215 Trivia

I expected a rocket this chapter, but I didn't expect this many of them…

This is a Newtonian telescope based on the secondary mirror and spider supports. Here, these supports are entirely pointless since it seems to be embedded into glass anyways. The glass could mean it's a Schmidt-Newtonian telescope instead, but the design is still redundant.

The design here is a very generic "spy satellite", similar to how the Hubble Space Telescope looks. I don't think it matches any specific satellite.

If you want to know more about orbits, I highly recommend reading the Dr. Stone Reboot: Byakuya if you haven't already!

The first photovoltaic cells were layered brass/gold/selenium, created by Charles Fritts in 1885. Senku upgraded his with a layer of glass coated in magnesium fluoride, which prevents the sunlight "escaping", thus converting more of it to electricity. They're about 1% efficient.

The black cat post here is a reference to Yamato Transport, one of Japan's largest door-to-door delivery services. Their logo is a black cat holding a kitten, symbolizing that they take care of your items as if it were family.

The time between the first "level 1" rocket and the completed "level 99" rocket was 3 years according to Senku, meaning the first rocket test in this chapter was around April 5753.

For some reason this sound effect is in English. I guess it really needed that "M" sound at the end?

Sai mentions missing a hyphen in a line, however machine code tends to not use hyphens at all. That said, if we remember the trivia from chapter 204 then we know that the Mariner 1 was destroyed because of a missing hyphen, and the Mars Climate Orbiter was destroyed on landing because of a failure to convert units.

For the Mariner 1 specifically, the issue was a missing hyphen in the guidance program (redundant system). NASA called it the "devil's hyphen" and used it as a warning to focus on software.

The calendar here is more helpful than you'd think: the arrangement of visible dates here is somewhat rare, happening only once every 28 years. The last confirmed year we had is 5750, making this…

…March, 5760.

The chapter isn't even over yet…

(Yes this means Senku is around 30 years old when they launch the second rocket, since he turned 20 in 5750.)*

The Senku 3 rocket is similar to the one he made as a teenager, but looks a lot less refined thanks to stone world craftsmanship. After two failures, their name writing seems to have gotten lazier…

Most of the rocket problems are self explanatory, but the bubble one is a little less logical: it forms in the fuel tank, and when it pops, it creates a pressure wave that can erode metal from the fuel pump. Obviously having tiny pieces of metal in your fuel is a bad thing…

I don't know how this crowd isn't scared of how close they are to all these explosions and out-of-control rockets!?

This doesn't look right…

…Do Xeno and Senku not notice that Chrome and Suika seem to be watching them from the roof…? I guess there's no better way of learning if you're trying to be sneaky about it!

(*This ended up being unintentional on Inagaki's part, and he brought up a correction here.)

dear @swinginmakerbonkplaid - i hope your week gets better. <3

The market is busy. Saturdays are always the worst days for shopping, but Yamato had no choice this week.

So here he is, flustered and irritable in the middle of a bustling crowd of civlians and shinobi, families and couples, wishing more than anything that he could transport himself to the middle of the forest away from every human being in existence.

"Yo, Tenzo."

Great. Just what he needs.

Yamato turns, doing his best to hide a grimace as he says, "Good morning, Kakashi-senpai. I think you mean Yamato."

Kakashi glances up at him over the pages of Icha Icha Violence and says, "No," before returning his attention to his book.

Yamato closes his eyes, takes a long, slow breath through his nose. "Well, if that's all, I'm afraid I have errands to run. I'll see you at training tomorrow."

With that, he stalks off toward the vegetable stand. Or at least, he tries to. But the firm press of bodies is everywhere, and apparently no one actually comes to the market to shop since everyone appears to just be standing around, primarily directly in Yamato's way.

"Crowded today."

Yamato jerks his head to the side to glare at Kakashi, who has apparently decided to plaster himself to Yamato's flank, despite giving no indication that he is also stuck in this hellscape for the purposes of shopping.

"Can I help you?" he asks, raising an irate and semi-skeptical eyebrow.

Kakashi just shrugs, turning the page of his book with his thumb. Yamato rolls his eyes, too overwhelmed by the crowds and the noise and the heat and the scrape of his clothes against his neck when he's jostled and the high-pitched ringing in his ears and the weight of the happuri on his temples and his heart feels like it's getting too big and maybe he should just go home because he's pretty sure--

Where the hell...?

Yamato turns around, finding himself no longer in the supremely overcrowded market at the center of Konoha, but some strange half-abandoned street he's never seen before.

"Where did I--"

"There's a store over there that will have everything you need."

Kakashi points to a non-descript building, eyes still fixed on his book. Yamato shakes his head.

"Did you..."?

Kakashi nods before Yamato can finish his question and as irritated as he is at being subjected to a transportation jutsu without any warning, he can't deny that he's more grateful at no longer being stuck in the middle of an unruly throng of bodies.

He takes a deep breath while he waits for his heart rate to return to normal, for his hands to stop trembling. "Thank you, Senpai," he says, before stepping into the store.

Kakashi doesn't answer.

The shop is small, and barely lit, but Kakashi was right, it's well-stocked with produce and fish, even if it doesn't have everything Yamato would have been able to find at the larger market.

He takes his time perusing the shelves, mentally calculating all the things he will need to prepare his meals for the coming week.

As he pays for his purchase, Yamato is sure to thank the clerk and makes a mental note to come back next time he needs to shop on a weekend. When he steps outside, he is surprised to find Kakashi still there, standing in the middle of the street, reading.

"Kakashi-senpai, what is up with you today?" he asks, genuinely confused by the other man's stranger-than-usual behavior.

"Nothing, Tenzo. Why would anything be up?"

Yamato doesn't correct him, opting instead to begin the short trek back to his apartment, and somehow expecting it when Kakashi falls into step beside him.

As they approach the market again, Yamato feels his anxiety return. He knows he can go around, take the long way back to his apartment. But more than that, Yamato knows this should not bother him.

He feels Kakashi move closer as they approach the more crowded parts of Konoha, and Yamato is not sure whether its for his own benefit or his Kouhai's. Either way, Yamato is grateful. The breadth of two shinobi opens slightly more room in the crowd for them to move, and it lessens the sensation of claustrophobia that overwhelmed him earlier.

Yamato has never done well with tight spaces, a fact which he knows about himself and understands the reasoning behind. Still, it's frustrating that such a simple thing can make him so upset when he has spent his life as a highly-skilled shinobi.

He hears the snap of Kakashi's book closing, but before Yamato can throw him another skeptical look, he's taken by surprise when he feels Kakashi's hand close around his wrist.

Yamato looks down, blinks a few times to assure himself that what he's feeling is really happening, and it is.

Kakashi Hatake's pale fingers circle his wrist, pulling him along behind him through the crowd like a child.

Yamato hates that it makes his stomach feel jumbled and light, that he can feel a blush prickling along the skin of his neck to tickle his cheeks.

"S-Senpai," he hisses, but Kakashi ignores him, just continues to plow ahead through the crowd with one hand holding onto Yamato and the other shoved into his pocket.

Even when they're out of the worst of the crowds, Kakashi doesn't let go until they reach Tenzo's apartment complex where he stops at the front door, but still doesn't say anything.

Yamato, flustered and confused but also inexplicably happy for reasons he is not quite sure he understands in full, clears his throat. "Do you... want to come in? I could make us dinner."

Kakashi gives him that exagerated one-eyed smile and says, "Sure," as if he doesn't still have his fingers wrapped around Yamato's wrist.

When Yamato looks down, Kakashi jumps, as if only just remembering the contact. He loosens his grip to pull away, but before he can, Yamato tangles their fingers together in a panicked rush, suddenly terrified.

"Oh," Kakashi says when their hands knot together, though he doesn't sound all that surprised.

Yamato's palm is slick with sweat, clammy from his nervousness and confusion.

"I-is this okay?" he asks, staring pointedly at Kakashi's chin because he's not ready to make eye contact.

When he doesn't receive an immediate answer, Yamato tries to untangle their hands, but Kakashi's grip tightens.

He chuckles and for a moment, Yamato is sure he's about to make fun of him for wanting to hold hands. Instead, though, he says, "Yes, Tenzo, it's more than okay."

He guls, still unable to make eye contact, so Yamato simply turns to enter his building, tugging Kakashi along with him as he mutters, "It's Yamato."

Whatever his name is, he supposes, doesn't matter nearly as much as how nice it feels to hold Kakashi's hand as they make their way up the stairs to his apartment.

Wacky Wahoo Pizza Man gets high and the Devil cries

You are one of the many spiders that have squatters rights in the Devil May Cry shop. Since the business is never cleaned, you have lived many long years (in terms for a spider) and have seen various sights. Today you sat in the corner of the windowsill and noticed the owner return. You were about to jump for joy since this meant there would be another food source (the trail of ants left behind from Dante) when you noticed a new face. There was a human woman you had never seen before.

"Are you sure this is safe Nico?" You noticed the woman had a large canister. "All the best things in life aren't safe. Why do you think I drive without a seatbelt? Besides, don't yer demons powers stop you from dyin'?". The man thought it over. "I guess you're right. But what about you? Don't you need a gas mask?" Nico readied her spray nozzle. "Those are for pussies. YOLO!" To your horror you recognized what she was doing. She was about to bug bomb the entire place.

Green mist filled the entire room. You tried to run but your little legs only carried you so far. You had just been evicted and the house was your body. "Well that takes care of that!" Only Dante and Nico were left standing. "Do you feel any different?" "I feel really good actually." It turns out that Nico had sprayed more than a lethal amount of rat poison. Dante survived due to his demon genes and Nico had enough tolerance to survive due to all her substinance abuse. They did however reap some side effects. The two of them were now unknowingly tripping balls.

Dante stumbled around but he usually did that when he was drunk anyway. "I.. can- my legs don't work." He then devil triggered and began to fly around for movement. "AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Nico shrieked. "NICO WHAT IS IT!?" She started to tremble and point her finger. "The-there's a monster in here!" Dante panicked. "SHIT! Okay Nico, stay calm. Can you tell me what it's doing?!" She shook. "It's just standing there.. MENACINGLY!"

The both started to move around and scream. Nico picked up her cellphone and dialed Nero. "GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE, THERE'S DEMONS!". Luckily Vergil was with him when the call happened so they just used Yamato for transportation from Fortuna. "YOU BETTER HAVE A GOOD REASON FOR THIS OLD MAN!" Nero opened the door and vapour blew out of the building, causing both father and son to violently cough. "What the fuck-" Before Nero could finish his sentence the room cleared and showed a frightened Nico wielding a frying pan and a crying Dante hugging a jukebox for comfort.

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!" Vergil cried. Nero then noticed the gas canister. "I think I have an idea pops." Nico and Dante were now sound asleep and on the couch. "You think they've been poisoned!?" Vergil asked alarmed. "You tell me what the two of them were doing with so much rat poison! Anyway we'll watch them and see how they are when they wake up." Vergil sighed. "I guess all we can do is wait and see then."

Nico was the first to wake up. "Huh? What happened? Wait. GIANT MONSTER!" Nero tried to hold her down. "Nico calm down! It's alright. You were just hallucinating." She stopped and her breathing returned to normal. "Ohhhh! Yeah that makes sense. We tried to bug bomb this place to hell n' back." Nero shook his head. "You know that's way too much right? Please just stick to making devil breakers next time!" Nico gave a salute and said "Got it."

There was a yawn and everyone noticed that Dante finally woke up. "Guys, watch out, there's a scary monster hiding somewhere! Vergil hold me!" He then clung onto his elder brother. "ABSOLUTELY NOT! Dante what's gotten into you!?" He then turned to Nico. "You. Speak now woman!" Nico stretched her arms outs awkwardly. "Okay but before I tell you, you have to promise not to get mad!" The room was silent. "Okay, Okay. I was hangin' with yer' bro last night and things got a little... shall we say out of hand?" Nero raised a brow. "What do you mean?" She sighed. I may or may not have dared him to do whippets and then chug five bottles of bleach." Nero snapped. "NICO, WHAT THE HELL!"

"YOU SAID YOU WOULDN'T GET MAD!" Nero smashed his fist into the wall. "I NEVER SAID THAT AND WHY DID YOU THINK IT WAS OKAY TO GET MY UNCLE TO AGREE TO THAT!" Nico stood up. "I CAN'T HELP IT! HE'S THE COOL DAD I NEVER HAD!" Vergil face palmed. "Jesus Christ Nero, what is so wrong with you that you feel the need to associate with these people?" Nico was about to throw the frying pan at Vergil's face until Nero intervened. "Guys, we need to take care of Dante until the poison wears off. Can you do that for me?"

Nero was setting up the VCR while Nico went outside for a smoke break. Vergil had awkwardly embraced his brother in the hopes that it would help calm him down. "Jeez doesn't he have any g rated movies? Most of these are just horror or porn. Some of them being both." Nero said with disgust. "Just find something. I'm not sure how much longer I can take this!" His son just laughed. "Would it kill you to show him some affection dad? Anyway I think I found something. There's no Disney tapes but it's g rated and has cartoon animals." "Just put it on then!" his father groaned.

Everything was peaceful for a while until Nico heard a scream come from inside. "What's wrong!?" It turns out that the movie Nero put on was watership down. Dante was muttering something about rabbits and sobbing into Vergil's shoulder. Nico offered to go to the video store to pick up a tape and maybe some pizza. "How about bambi-" "NO!" Nero and Vergil screamed in unison.

She returned with some episodes of Sesame Street. Dante had managed to calm down and was now nibbling on some pizza. "Look Dante. Elmos red, just like your coat!" Nero was trying his best to cheer his uncle up. "Yeah.." he giggled. "Red is always better than blue, isn't that right Vergil? His favorite was always Grover because they're both book nerds." Vergil grit his teeth. "Dante..." "What kid even likes Grover anyway? Elmo is where it's at, I mean look at all the toys the fucker gets-" He looked down to see his brothers sword protruding from his ribcage. "I guess the fun's over then."

Nero grabbed his father by the coat "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!?" Vergil just glanced towards his brother. "Evidentily he seems fine to me." Nero looked at Dante only to notice that Yamato was removed and his uncle was now poking his wound for fun. "Don't tell me he was acting this entire time..." Nero groaned. "Jackpot kiddo. I had to get your friend back for last night. I don't think she'll be causing trouble anytime soon."

"And what about Vergil?" His uncle grinned. "C'mon, you know he would never hug me under normal circumstances." His brother was equally annoyed now. "I hate you Dante." "Aww, I love you too bro, let's hug it out some more!" This quickly earned him multiple stabbings. Nero then exited the building. "Why can't I have a normal family for once in my life!?"

digi secret santa!

to sam (@tangledupblue ), a dear friend! i am so lucky to have gotten you as my secret santa recipient. i hope that this season has found you well, and that you have a wonderful rest of the year.

New Adventures

characters: yamato and takeru summary: things continue to change, and yamato is struggling to stay afloat.

Train wheel screeched as Yamato was stirred from his momentary slumber. Blearily, he looked around, embarrassment coloring his cheeks. It wasn’t like him to fall asleep on public transport.

It also wasn’t like him to avoid his problems, a fact he dutifully ignored.

He had woken up late that morning. The consistent buzzing of his phone had become too much to ignore, but he felt no urgency. January had arrived only days ago, but Yamato hadn’t grown used to the cold.

‘It’s time,’ a text read. A string of missed calls followed close behind. Yamato made no effort to respond, throwing his covers aside haphazardly as panic gripped his heart.

The hustle and bustle of Tokyo swept Yamato up. His body moved on autopilot as he wiped the sleep from his eyes. Like the other passerby, Yamato kept his gaze downward, sparing only a glance or two at the bag clutched desperately in his hand.

Yamato looked up only to verify that he was headed in the right direction before he focused once more on his shoes.

His two different shoes. Yamato sighed.

Odaiba’s population was miniscule compared to the capital of Japan. Strangers’ shoulders brushed against his, the crowd’s warmth his only consultation. As he struggled to make his way down the street, Yamato cursed under his breath. A brisk winter breeze seeped through his leather coat, his arms covered in gooseflesh.

Despite the train’s timely arrival, Yamato’s watch informed him that he would be late. He could feel the wind ruffle his carefully-styled hair and groaned. This wasn’t the impression that he hoped for, but it would have to do.

The streets continued to twist and turn until a large building came into view. A constant flow of bodies spilled in and out of the doors. Yamato’s fingers grew numb with anxiety; his breath quickened.

Yamato glanced down at his watch for the date: January 12th. It was strange to him how a day that previously felt like any other could suddenly hold so much importance.

Large, beige walls stretched above him, dense clouds reflected in the countless windows. Yamato searched the windows for a clue, for a sign from the universe that would settle the jittery feeling in his heart.

The windows stared back blankly, the walls too formidable to let even a whisper of hope through. At the top, ‘Aiiku Hospital’ was proudly displayed. For some, these rooms would be the start of a new life, or a chance at a second one.

Yamato wondered idly which fate awaited him.

Without a doubt, he knew that once he stepped through the threshold, Yamato’s life would be irrevocably changed. His pulse quickened, the bag rustling futility in his grasp.

Winter’s wind urged him forward, towards the throngs of people headed inside. Residual holiday decoration hung from high banisters and the edges of desks. People talked in hushed voices as they sat in various chairs. Though their masks hid their mouth, the edges of their eyes would crinkle with every smile. Despite Yamato’s nerves that were tied in a bundle, the atmosphere was almost merry.

He side-stepped out of the way, and tucked himself into a corner to gain his bearings. In his pocket, his phone buzzed once more, but Yamato ignored it. Carefully, he opened up his bag. The outside was wrinkled and weary from the travel, but inside, everything was as it should be.

Yamato released a shaky breath as he rubbed his sweaty palms against his worn jeans. He worked his fingers through his messy hair, straightening the hem of his shirt.

Late or not, he was going to make the best impression that he could.

The lady at the desk pointed him up the stairs, and offered him a smile as she patiently repeated the directions.

His legs felt numb as he made his way upwards. The windows that lined the walls illuminated briefly with a weak ray of sunshine before the clouds swallowed it whole. Yamato wished for the clouds to swallow him up and spit him out somewhere far, far away.

Underneath his anxiety, there was a strange sort of anticipation. With every step, he grew closer and closer to an uncertain future. What would this mean for him? What would this mean for his brother?

At the thought of Takeru, Yamato’s pace quickened. He would have taken the stairs two at a time had it been socially acceptable, but he held back.

Somewhere, at the other end of a long, superfluous staircase, his little brother was embarking on an adventure Yamato had no place in.

It was terrifying and gratifying to watch a brother grow up, Yamato mused. One moment, Takeru had painstakingly arranged his letter blocks to form nonsense words, and in the next, he had become a father.

The unrelenting buzzing in Yamato’s pocket acted as his silent cheerleader, reassuring him that even now, as they grew up and grew apart, that he would always have a place in his brother’s life.

The stairs ended at the mouth of an endless hallway adorned with storks and brightly colored women. Each nurse seemed to smile as they darted between rooms, the sound of a baby’s cry more of an accomplishment than a burden.

“308, 308, 308,” Yamato muttered to himself. Numbers passed by in a blur until his eyes zeroed in on the room that held the source of his anxieties.

‘Takaishi’ had been written on the place card beside the room number in an elegant script.

Yamato’s legs seemed to be rooted in place, his ears straining for any sound beyond the solid wood door.

Other than a few hushed whispers, Yamato was unable to discern anything. One last look into his bag settled his stomach. It was time to stop running.

He took a deep breath, steeling himself for whatever was to come. Softly, he knocked on the door, the hushed whispers fading out immediately.

The door creaked open on its hinges, a head of unruly blond hair poking out.

“Yamato?” he whispered. Dumbly, the older boy stood there, his throat dry and heart pounding. Takeru pretended not to notice his apprehension and took a step forward.

Yamato studied the dark circles underneath Takeru’s eyes and the happy glow that settled in his smile. He had to crane his neck up to get a good glimpse at his little brother, but could no longer find it within himself to resent the height difference.

“It’s been a while,” Yamato finally said, clearing his throat. “Is…Did everything…How is she?”

“Labor was a bitch, she said, but worth it. I was worried for a minute - her face was so pale and her heart was beating so fast. The doctors say that everything is fine, thought, so I guess I have to trust their judgment.” Takeru shrugged.

After a moment of silence, he continued. “Thank you for coming, by the way. It means more to me than you’ll ever know.”

At that, Yamato smiled, thrusting the crumpled bag in his direction. “So do I get to meet the kid or not?”

“Your nephew, you mean?”

Nephew.

Yamato swallowed the lump in his throat, his eyes prickling at the thought of his brother having a son of his own. “Yes,” he managed. “My nephew.”

Szóval ma megint kifejezetten szentélylátogató napot tartottam. Az első hely a Yushima Tenmangu szentély volt, ahol több másik szentélyhez hasonlóan ahol már Oszakában és Kiotóban is jártam, Sugawara no Michizane (Tenjin) Kamija lakik. A szentély leginkább a diákok körében népszerű, akik sikeres vizsgákért szoktak itt imádkozni. Itt egész sokan voltak ezen a szép szombat délelőttön, de meglepő módon magamon kívül kizárólag csak japánokat láttam. Egy nagyon szép, rendezett szentély, gyönyörű parkkal és a világ legjóságosabb arcú bikaszobrával. A Sugawara no Michizane-nek szentelt szentélyekben egyébként azért találhatók meg a bikaszobrok, mert a legenda szerint a költőt halála után egy ökrösszekér húzta a hintót. A bika azonban egy helyen hirtelen megállt, és nem volt hajlandó továbbmenni. Sugawara no Michizane-t később ezen a helyen, Fukoukában temették el, ahol később a Dazaifu Tenmangu szentélyt emelték.

A következő két szentély a Gojoten Jinja és a Hanazono Inari Jinja volt, amelyek gyakorlatilag egy területen találhatók az Ueno Parkban. A Gojoten Jinja három Kamija Okuninushi, Sukunabikona, és Sugawara no Michizane, itt tehát főként betegségekből való felgyógyulásért és sikeres vizsgákért imádkoznak a látogatók. A Hanazono Inari Jinja pedig egy gyönyör kis Inari szentély, sok karmazsinvörös toriival. Mindkét szentély nagyon kellemes és nyugodt hangulatú, a sok turista ellenére is. Így a cseresznyevirágzás idején pedig különösen gyönyörűek.

Végül pedig a Kanda-Myojin szentélyban voltam, ami egy minden szempontból lenyűgöző hely. Egyrészt építészetileg, másrészt az 1300 éves múltja miatt, végül pedig azért, mert itt láttam először omamori automatát. Ez a szentély egyébként arról is híres, hogy mivel a tech-világ egyik középpontjában, Akihabarában található, így akár az elektronikai cikkeink védelme érdekébe is vásárolhatunk itt omamorit.

Egyébként édesanyám gyakran mondogatta nekem fiatalkoromban, hogy "hülye vagy, fiam", amit egy ideje nem mondott, mert szerintem azt hiszi, hogy így 30 felett már nem vagyok annyira hülye, de hát az a helyzet, hogy hazafelé betévedtem egy bolhapiacra az Ueno Parkban, ahol a napi (vagy inkább a heti) büdzsém maradékát két dologra verhettem el: az egyik egy Yamato Transport kisautó, a másik pedig az olcsó kimonóárus portékája volt. Szóval hát az a helyzet, hogy kicsit fáj a szívem a kisautó miatt, de belegondoltam, hogy csak 35 éves leszek idén, úgyhogy hirtelen felindulásból vettem egy haorit, ami amúgy szerintem kurva jól néz ki, de így igazából ötletem nincs, hogy mikor és hová tudnám én ezt felvenni, pláne, hogy egy rendes kimono szetthez most akkor minimum egy olcsó nagagit is szereznem kellene obival meg ilyenekkel. DE amúgy annyira kényelmes anyaga van, hogy beszarsz.

Igen, persze, nyilván tudom, hogy nem így kell hordani, csak úgy felkaptam mutatóba a pólóra és a mackóalsóra, kövezzetek meg. Mazsom-san sokkal elegánsabb nálam.

Ja, amúgy ez a tízezredik posztom.
