SHINRAN AND THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES

physical touch

physical gestures of intimacy that communicate emotional closeness and love

ran initiating physical contact every time she's scared or upset:

chapter 1

chapter 143

chapter 924

imo these examples prove that ran's ultimate safe space is shinichi. i mean, sonoko is right there, but ran still chooses to cry on his shoulder lol!

one more example:

shinichi comforting a worried ran by holding her hand because he knows how much physical touch means to her

chapter 48

i just love them so much

shinran checking each other's temperature (it's their thing):

chapter 347

chapter 353

chapter 652

chapter 759

chapter 1006

shinran initiating physical touch because they refuse to lose each other:

chapter 651

chapter 653

chapter 654

bonus: ran being extra (I LOVE HER SM)

chapter 752

SHINRAN JUST BEING SHINRAN:

chapter 36

chapter 255

chapter 573

chapter 922

JUST THE WHOLE KYOTO ARC, Y'ALL

chapter 1000:

shinichi: tells ran to stay away from him cause he caught a cold

ran: doesn't give a shit

ran's a physical touch kind of girl through and through!

chapter 1004

shinichi grabbing ran's arm cause he's uncertain about her feelings and needs clarification:

RAN'S CLARIFICATION:

chapter 1005

SHINICHI GOING ALL IN:

this analysis made me realize two things:

a) after acts of service, ran's primary love language is physical touch

b) when it comes to the bedroom, it's likely that ran's the one who initiates but shinichi takes charge (i always thought ran would take charge lol)

Are you trapped on tumblr right now?

Is there something you planned to do before you got trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?

Are you yelling at yourself to get up and do the thing, but you can’t, because you’re trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?

Consider this your save point.

Put tumblr down, stand up, stretch, and go do the thing you planned to do. Future you will be incredibly grateful.

I actually almost started crying looking back at the valentine's case. This being their love language is something I noticed pretty early on. They both remember each other's favorite things, birthdays or special dates. Even if Shinichi forgets sometimes they both care so deeply for each other it really feels like more than just a "childhood friend" love troupe with them. Ran has always been one to care so deeply and truly for anyone she cares for. It's shown time and time again with Sonoko, Kogoro, Eri and especially Shinichi. I know we all love many of the other ships with Shinichi, even I am a big fan of HeiShin and Haibara x Conan, but I think it's really important to remember Ran and how amazing of her person she is. They're both so attentive and caring, it makes me so happy seeing them together and so heartbroken knowing they may never be able to be together truly again. . .

SHINRAN AND THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES

gift giving

giving your partner tangible items that make them feel known, loved and cared for

chapter 48

shinichi giving ran mittens

we all know shinichi is a very observant and attentive guy, so naturally all of his gift are pretty well thought out... which is why i was confused as hell about the mittens, cause they seemed very random to me... until i paid closer attention and noticed something

THEY'RE NOT RANDOM AT ALL

HE GIVES HER MITTENS BECAUSE HE NOTICES THAT HER HANDS ARE FREEZING IN THE COLD

this ship is going to be the death of me.

chapter 237

ran knitting shinichi a sweater

IT TAKES HER A WHOLE MONTH YALL!

chapter 245

chapter 293-296

bonus: shinichi being appreciative!

chapter 307

even though she decides not to send him the cup, shinichi is still ecstatic about the gift. meanwhile in chapter 331-334:

both of them are hurting so much during this case. and here's my theory:

both shinichi and ran have a tendency to conceal or downplay their pain. ran says she didnt send the mug because it turned out bad, but i think that's just an excuse. i think not being able to give him the cup directly causes her a lot of anguish, which is why she ultimately decides not to send it.

but my girl is strong, so the first time she's confronted with a situation like that she's able to fool everyone. the reason why shinichi catches on to her during the valentine's case is because it's a romantically loaded day and this is the second time that she doesn't get to express her love through a gift.

she's tired of having so much love to give but the only person she wants to pour her heart out to is absent. she's understandably crushed. which ultimately breaks shinichi's heart as well. so he does this...

and i think that speaks volumes about shinran and the importance of gift giving in their relationship.

chapter 727

kogoro: mentions ran's cold at the beginning of the case

me: doesn't give it much thought

shinichi:

me:

chapter 884

chapter 743

not THAT much, huh?

we should hype up bottom surgery more i think. both twitter transphobes and chronically online trans people really like to be disgusted at phalloplasty, vaginoplasty, ext. and i really think we should treat them as cool and sexy and neutral like top surgery scars or whatever

When you get sick and you realize all over again (because this happens every time you get sick) how much you take for granted not being sick

So for over a month and a half I’ve been told in my Creative writing MA class that my writing is too poetic and abstract to work in the form of a novel and that I need to simplify my meanings and sentences. I did as I was told and lost all interest in writing if I have to write in the same style that every other novelist does. Today I received this note from a classmate and didn’t realise how much I needed to hear it. Don’t change your art just because other people don’t get it. Don’t change your style to fit in with everyone else. It’s your story not theirs.
