Haruka kidnapping Fuuta

(Order of Attack, I mean.)

Oooh, this was so interesting! I think Mahiru was so used to going with the flow, and didn’t seem to be moving around that much, that I didn’t see a lot of thoughts about her wheelchair specific struggles – but I 100% think Fuuta would experience wheelchair-grabbing violations… (Tw for that and brief mention of suicidal thoughts)

“Fuuta-san? C-can I, um, tell you something, alone? M-maybe back in my cell?”

Haruka looked between him, and where Amane and Mahiru sat around the wheelchair. His gaze was intense and pleading, but Fuuta huffed in reply.

“Whatever you have to say, you can say in front of them. I don’t have time for little kid drama like this.” He hoped the nonchalance could paint Haruka as the scared one of the situation.

Throughout the whole trial, not even Amane had caught on to his fixation over how many people were in a room at a time. Aside from the nights, which left him panicked and alert regardless, Fuuta made sure no less than three people gathered in a room at any given time. It was entirely logical – after all, they had very compelling evidence that two people weren’t enough to call for help if trouble arose. It was doubly true now that Fuuta couldn’t work his own wheelchair with a broken arm. Also, he still didn’t know who he could trust. Kotoko was the obvious danger, but some of the others were too unpredictable for him to comfortably sit alone with. Mikoto had been having those outbursts, and he didn’t like the jealousy in Muu’s eyes after verdicts were announced. 

However logical it was, the others would certainly label it melodrama if they knew the way his heart rate skyrocketed when there were too few people around. When questioned, he always gave a short, “it’s nothing.” 

So, even at the heartfelt request, he kept his words short and prayed the others kept their attention on Haruka.

The boy’s face fell. “O-oh, that’s okay. Um, another time, then.” He bowed his head and slipped out the door.

Mahiru poked Fuuta where she knew there were no bandages, shooting him a look. “You should let him talk to you! It sounded like a big deal.”

“Eh? But I tried! I didn’t think he’d just leave, jeez…”

“Next time –”

“Yeah, yeah, next time.” 

When the next time arrived, Kazui and Amane were the ones unknowingly maintaining the room’s safety for Fuuta. They were each involved in their own activities in the common room, but simply having them nearby was enough.

“Um! Is now a good time to-to talk?” 

Haruka’s voice strained even more. His eyes appeared even more wild. It unsettled Fuuta, but also meant he had no choice but to honor Mahiru’s request if things were already this bad.

“I mean, if you really need to, we could –"

“Great!” Without another word, he’d grabbed the back of the chair and was whisking Fuuta out into the hall.

“Hey!” He looked frantically over his shoulder, but Amane looked just as peaceful as always. He wanted to call out to her, but what could he say? He’d either admit he sounded like a panicked child, or need to insist it was nothing.

Even when he did get control of his voice, snapping a quick, “oi, wait a second!” it was too late. The panopticon rushed past him. He’d missed his window and was completely isolated.

The boy dragged him into the darkened cell, leaving him in the center of the floor.

His voice was tinged with the same hysteria in his eyes. “I just, well, I need to do something drastic. You’ll understand. I know that-that you’ll understand. I p-promise this will be quick.”

“What the hell are you talking about?” Fuuta’s mind raced as fast as his pulse. “Something drastic?” 

“It’ll be quick…”

Fuuta craned his gaze backwards to see Haruka close and latch the door. He immediately regretted the motion, pulling something tight in his chest and shortening his breath. He spun back to gasp a raspy inhale.

“The Warden won’t p-pay attention to us unless someone gets hurt,” Haruka continued from behind. “They’ll only pay attention if – if someone dies.”

His footsteps approached. Fuuta grasped at his chest. As soon as he got his breath back, he’d cry out – but would anyone hear him? How much time would he have, before…?

“That’s why… I have to do this.”

Fuuta used to feel strong. He used to feel in charge, in control. He could go about his day feeling capable, and safe, and not think twice about who was in the room with him. He could talk when he wanted, walk where he wanted.

Now, he could only sit here, in a murderer’s room, unable to speak up as he circled around the wheelchair.

Haruka smiled. “No one will m-miss me, anyways.”

Fuuta blinked. He finally managed a shaky, “you?”

A knock on the door made both of them flinch. Muu’s voice came muffled from the other end. “Haruka-kun? Are you in there? I thought we were going to play a game.”

“Y-yeah!” Then, whispering, “ah. We can, um, talk another time.”

He went to answer the door, leaving Fuuta to hang his head. All his muscles untensed – he’d surely pulled more than his chest in his panic. And what shameful panic it was, worrying about himself, when this never had anything to do with him. 

It seemed he’d failed at being a hero in more ways than one.

On their way back to the common room, while Fuuta was contemplating the best person to confide the news to, Haruka apologized. “S-sorry for bothering you.”

Fuuta was glad he couldn’t see the expression that crossed over his face. “It was nothing.”

THE USOS REUNITE WWE SMACKDOWN (OCTOBER 25, 2024)

[xxplastic-cubexx]

I respectfully disagree with your opinion about Lilandra. She and Charles work better together. I really don't like that they spend an entire event trying to get her back so she can end up breaking up with Charles.

Yes, she is her own chatacter, but to say that they should separate from the love of their lives just for character development... is ridiculous.

I think Charles didn't bring it back during the Krakoa era because he couldn't, maybe the council wouldn't allow it or something.

NO breakup!!!! Let them be happy!!! They are happy together. Don't touch them!!!🔪

wanting lilandra to have some independence isn't explicitly saying she and charles should be separated forever (tho i def made it sound like i wanted that My Bad jVLKAEKJ)- i just want that to be an option, yk what i mean

lilandra's sole role in the franchise shouldn't be charles' wife and xandra's mother- she CAN be those things (and i do like her and charles together for the record!!!), and she should also be able to breathe by herself and be a character if charles is absent. charles resurrecting her shouldn't be an automatic right to her either, she's not an item to get back: she's an individual who should be allowed to think about and make a choice

i like them together, im not upset at the concept of them being together. itd be great if charles finally was able to be happy with his family and if charles, seemingly being done with earth, had space adventures with them too. but i dont want that if it means charles' partner isn't an interesting character: both protagonists should keep us invested, not just one.

if the thesis for charles and lilandra is going to be 'they'll always get back together in the end because they love each other' then i just want the story of how they get back together to be interesting and well done and not JUST "because they love each other"

[grahamcarmen]

And my thing STILL is that as carmen gets a stronger sense of her past and better connections with her friends and allies the need/desire for Gray in her life doesn't decrease and dissapate, it INCREASES and is refined. All while constantly being more sincerely layered in romantic tones as the show goes on.

Re:Kinder Fun Facts of the day☺️!!! Have you ever wondered who talks the most from the main cast in Re:Kinder?? Well, I did😊. Today I'll be answering this question with some graphs and as a bonus telling you what words each character uses the most! I will warn you, this will be a bit long and I don't know how to be less verbose so, yeah!!!

First, I've made some basic rules as to what I counted regarding how much the characters speak. Not all lines really count as speaking, after all.

Any of the incoherent screaming lines don't count. There's a lot of screaming since the characters die a lot (as expected for a horror RPG game), but I don't really count that as speaking unless they're saying proper words. In that same vein, I didn't really count any of the panting or sniffing and such that are conveyed through words. Again, I don't really see that as a character actively speaking their thoughts!

If I cannot tell who a line belongs to, I will not give it to anyone. This happens for certain lines, so I felt this rule was important.

I won't be counting repetitions of the same line if it's on a variation of the same scene. This may sound a bit strange, but when a character dies, the game goes on to the same next scene it would regardless (unless the scene that follows it is an ending), with variations and new lines here and there to account for the dead character, but a lot will be reused and placed in the exact same beats it normally would have been in originally. So, this rule is here for that. Oh, and also the scenes with bits of Yuuichi's backstory that appear in Shunsuke's head won't be counted twice, because some appear twice line by line.

Of course, the "..." lines won't count. I am so sorry Aya!!!!😞

Now that the ground rules have been set, there's just one thing I want to mention. Though I will count all the total lines for Takumi and Yuuichi like any other character, I just want to mention that first I will have two separate counts for them! Takumi | Takumiel and Yuuichi | Yuuichi's Heart respectively.

Takumiel is separate because I was curious about how much Takumi spoke as an archangel compared to when he was alive. Yuuichi's Heart is because he speaks so much he feels notable enough to be given his own division, even if he and Yuuichi at the end of the day are one person

(I count the silly mind telepathy where Shunsuke is being directly spoken to [and being told things normal Yuu would avoid saying at that point] and the comical theater as Yuuichi's Heart. I clarify in case one assumes he only starts being counted the moment he's directly labelled as Yuuichi's Heart. Any line that can't be distinguished between Yuuichi's Heart and Yuuichi will be given to Yuuichi by default.)

With nothing else to be clarified let's get to the numbers!!!😊😊

First, the line counts with Takumiel and Yuuichi's Heart counted individually!! Here are the rankings:

Shunsuke (With a lead of 535 lines over second place!!)

Yuuichi

Rei

Yuuichi's Heart

Hiroto

Ryou

Sayaka

Aya

Takumi

Takumiel

You may be thinking— woah, does Shunsuke really speak that much?! You could say that, for a good chunk of those lines are from how he describes interactable points around the map and his inner thoughts, so they aren't all exactly said out loud. The benefit of being the protagonist, I suppose ww

Funny enough, Yuuichi's Heart has almost as many lines as Yuuichi does for not having that much time in the game, being on the higher end between the characters that don't get the benefit of being a protagonist (lol)!

Admittedly I had expected for Rei and Hiroto to have a more similar amount of lines given their nearly equal amount of presence, but for what it is Rei surpassed Hiroto by 51 lines! I also had expected for Takumiel to speak a little bit more than Takumi but turns out the opposite is true.

While the lack of lines of Takumi and Takumiel are to be expected due to their short time on the game, what stands out is Aya not even reaching triple digits between her other peers who are in there for most of the game. This is because a good chunk of Aya's lines in game are silence!^^" And thus weren't counted. If ellipses were a word, she surely would have reached triple digits, but unfortunately they're not.

Now the line count with combined sums of Takumi | Takumiel and Yuuichi | Yuuichi's Heart!!!

In here, the ranking isn't affected, with Yuuichi remaining second place and Takumi being last place. But the disparity of everyone's numbers compared to Takumi's feels a bit more clear to see when Takumiel isn't individually counted.

With Yuuichi's line counts combined, Shunsuke remains 318 lines ahead of him, but it also means Yuuichi has a 59% the amount of Shunsuke's lines; and impressive feat for someone who doesn't get the benefit of being the point of view for everything you press... Although he does also have an upper hand over everyone by essentially being the plot of this game ww

But maybe line counts do not suffice to tell how much a character speaks. Yes, Shunsuke has a bunch of lines from everything he interacts with, but is it really reliable to say he speaks all that much in all those lines? A good chunk of those could easily have 3 words each! So with this in mind, let's do a word count.

Even in a word count, Shunsuke has the lead, having a lead of 2,247 words over second place. But we'll see about that when we combine Yuuichi's numbers. Anyway, here's the ranking!

Shunsuke

Yuuichi's Heart

Yuuichi

Rei

Hiroto

Ryou

Sayaka

Aya

Takumi

Takumiel

This time, Yuuichi's Heart is the one at second place!!! It's pretty funny that he speaks more than his physical counterpart ww. I genuinely didnt think he'd out yap himself that way when I chose to count for him individually 😭!!! He has a lead of 63 words over himself, but a lead nonetheless.

In here, Rei and Hiroto are more even than in the line counts, with the difference seeming more minimal when put into words. But it also showcases that despite Rei having more lines than Yuuichi's Heart in the line count, those only get to have a bit over half of the amount of words he talks (To be fair he does get to infodump a lot in his section of the game).

And here's the combined word count!!! Suddenly Shunsuke's lead is only by a mere 55 words! So Yuuichi speaks about as much as he does with 318 less lines.

I must admit that I genuinely did not expect it to be that close. When I chose to count the lines for when you interact with things for Shunsuke, I thought he was granted to speak an absurd amount more than anyone else. But turns out that Yuuichi speaks about the same amount out loud when most of Shunsuke's are his own thoughts ww. But it does make sense! He is still the plot of this game.

So, after all those charts, here's the average/middle point of lines and words for characters to have, because why not, it's fun.

Average Line Count (YH and Takumiel counted individually): 197 lines

Average Line Count (When combined): 247 lines

Average Word Count (YH and Takumiel counted individually): 1,333 words

Average Word Count (When combined): 1,666 words

So there it is. That's how much the characters in Re:Kinder speak!

But wait!!! I am not done. I will share with you an additional fun fact... Did you ever want to know what word each of these characters said the most?! This one will be quicker, I do promise.

When it came to counting these words I did not count stop words, that being common words that are used all the time by everyone in English. "I, you, me, the, to, a, my, your, yes, no"... Words like that! Otherwise everyone would have one of those as their most said word and it'd be rather boring to look at. With that said, here are the words these characters say the most!

Shunsuke: Yuuichi - said 40 times! (this genuinely confused me so much im sorry he uses interjections so much I had expected it to be something like "huh" or "um" but no i dont know how this passed by me as i was rounding up all the lines he says or proofreading or writing all of those lines WHAT?!?! its been two days and it still takes me out)

Ryou: Shunsuke - Said 14 times

Sayaka: Murderer - Said 7 times (All in one sentence!)

Takumi | Takumiel (counted in one for how little he speaks.): Takumiel - Said 3 times (That name is so important, he said it thrice.)

Aya: Sorry - Said 5 times

Rei: Hell, gonna, look, Yuuchi - said 8 times (Most of the repeated words she says are stop words for she doesn't tend to speak about the same things repeatedly.)

Hiroto: Shunsuke - Said 17 times

Yuuichi (separate from YH): Problem - Said 17 times

Yuuichi's Heart: Mama - Said 24 times

Yuuichi (Overall): Mama - Said 31 times

So that is finally it. That is the fun fact of today.😊😊 Use this to woe your friends at parties!!!

I am aware Mami speaks about enough to be counted in, but this is pretty time consuming to do and I'm not sure anyone is invested on her enough to count her in. But if there's enough curiosity regarding that, I'll try counting her in. But for now this suffices.☺️ Thanks for reading!

Saw a cute boy at work. Did NOT talk to him he was with his DAD like man how is a girl supposed to shoot her shot with your sperm donor walking you around on a leash (NOT sexual. For once) i mean. I KNOW he saw me drive my cool ass car. I hope he knows what he's missing /j

This isn’t really an ask, but I just absolutely love & adore how you draw Reigen and honestly in general. It’s so invocative and uniquely beautiful in its own right.

I’ve been struggling to figure out how to draw Reigen myself and you amaze me with how well you capture him.

Plus the way you incorporate unique elements and ways of creating a art work is just down right amazing ❤️

You’ve inspired me to keep on pushing myself! Really awesome to see so many cool pieces from one person.

Ahhh thank you so much what the hell 🥹 Im happy I inspire you :') I don't really know any specific things I think of when drawing him, but the key is definitely practice! I've been drawing him for years & he's quite literally engraved in my brain 💔 I stopped counting at 1000 when it comes to how many times I drew him LOL. It's fun drawing him because it's easy to use him to practice drawing fluid body movement. And since he's an ugly man, it means that the drawing will still look good if his face is drawn ugly! I think people shouldn't be afraid of drawing him ugly or inconsistently. Look at how ONE draws him for example, Reigen never looks consistent & he looks far from attractive but that's what makes him so appealing. ONE is my main art inspiration actually, he manages to make Reigen look so raw & I wish to reach that level one day
