THE PHYSICS (SORTA) OF LAMBO’S TIME! THERE ARE 5 LAMBOS FROM DIFFERENT UNIVERSES AND I THOUGHT YOU ALL SHOULD KNOW
[Very few easily understood Physics concepts ahead. I’m a bored physics teacher so I’ll try to discuss the simple concept of multiverse the way I did for my 9 y/o niece and 7 y/o nephew. They kinda understood me when I used Lambo’s case as an example so …]
Tumblr media
Here are the five Lambos from different universes the first time they appeared in the manga. 
Let’s talk about them one by one:
1. UNIVERSE 1: PRESENT LAMBO
This is our Lambo.
This is that Lambo who was struck by Levi volta and survived; that Lambo who shielded Ryohei, Basil, and the Black Spell from Kikyou’s dinosaurs; that Lambo who befriended Ooyama and was almost killed; that Lambo who only kinda rested from the drama during the last arc.
This Lambo is Tsuna’s adopted child; I-pin’s sibling; Gokudera’s annoying younger brother; and Reborn’s toy.
In this short analysis, this Lambo and his universe, Universe 1, will serve as our singularity.
2. UNIVERSE 2: 10YL!LAMBO [MILLEFIORE FREE]
This is the weakest yet most interesting Lambo, living in the most interesting universe—Universe 2.
This is the Lambo that we meet after Lambo from U1 uses his ten-year bazooka but .. HE IS NOT THE LIGHTNING GUARDIAN OF THE VONGOLA FAMILY.
EVIDENCES:
Tumblr media
This Lambo has no recollection of the battle for the rings against Varia and from that idea alone, we can either infer that: a.) he was too young back then so he couldn’t remember; b.) the battle for the rings did not happen in universe 2; or c.) the battle for the rings did happen but this Lambo was not chosen as the lightning guardian so he didn’t have to fight.
Among these 3, the most acceptable (at least to me) is c. And this idea is supported by the fact that 1. this Lambo is weak and he is also a coward. We know that Tsuna wouldn’t want children to fight but I have no doubts that if Lambo was under his wing, he will make sure that Lambo would at least know how to properly defend himself; 2. this Lambo never recognizes himself as a member of the Vongola family. He addresses Tsuna as young Vongola and he also had this adherence to speak about his boss and his family that is most likely not the Vongola, there’s even this one chapter where his boss gave him a toilet bowl trophy; and 3.) there are plenty of times when this Lambo still exhibits his surprise in dealing with the Vongola. All in the daily life arc.
Now let’s talk about the fate of this Lambo. The first possibility is that, after this Lambo briefly showed himself at the battle of lightning, when he got back to universe 2, he soon died in the hands of the Millefiore family. Although he is not from the Vongola, we know that Byakuran destroys all the parallel universes from TYL so this Lambo will most likely die back in his timeline and universe.
Or
This Lambo remains alive and happy with his family because he is not from Universe 1′s parallel universe but from a different parallel universe altogether.
So what’s the difference between these two parallel universes?
Let’s say there are two threads tightly entangled with one another. These two threads are mostly similar. The first thread is made up of millions of finer threads and one of those fine thread is: Universe 1. This particular thread, having millions of finer threads therefore universes, is owned by Byakuran. Now entangled with this thread is another thread. This second thread is now made up of very fine dusts. One of these fine dusts is Universe 2 where we can find this Lambo.
Again, remember that these two threads are entangled and mostly similar. There are only two differences: the raw material in which these threads are made of and that one thread has an awakened Byakuran.
Collectively, if there are millions of entangled threads instead of just two, then you have your multiverse.
Therefore technically, the Vongola people from universe 1 (from thread 1) has been unconsciously duped by a Lambo from universe 2 (from thread 2) who is not even affiliated with the Vongola family. I think they are close acquaintances though. I have this hc that this Lambo lived with the Sawadas when he was young but he did not end up being the lightning guardian. 
So who is the lightning guardian in universe 2? I don’t know and let us not go that way since there are millions of possibilities, after all.
3. UNIVERSE 3: 20YL!LAMBO (POST MILLEFIORE)
This is the strongest Lambo among all the Lambos who appeared in KHR.
This is also the Lambo who most likely needed a hug.
This is the Lambo that has to grow up fast in order to survive. And contrary from Lambo (U2), he became the lightning guardian of the Vongola family. 
Tumblr media
In the brief moments when he appeared, we saw his maturity and the nostalgia that he had experienced after seeing again, the family he had lost. He is strong and he engaged in battling Levi not only because he’s used to it but it’s like the most natural thing to do for the Vongola family. 
Also, I may be over reacting, though he carries himself with grace, it’s as if life had been sucked out of him.
Another evidence that this Lambo became a lightning guardian is his horn. The old horn that he was looking for had his stupid cow nickname on it which was written by Gokudera moments before Lambo (U1) entered the battle field.
Now this is fascinating to note because Universe 1 and 3 are both in the first thread wherein the horns of Present Lambo and 20YL!Lambo existed. These horns are EXACTLY the same BUT at the same time different because both are from different universes. Meaning, at some point in the thread, there are two similar objects (horn) from different universes. That is why when Lambo (U2) used the ten-year bazooka, he was exchanged by this specific 20YL!Lambo instead of a 20YL!Lambo from the second thread where he came from. Does that mean that universe 1 and 3 are the same and later when present Lambo grew up he will be in universe 3? The answer is no. It doesn’t work that way because universe 1 is a singularity where possibilities of different futures are limitless according to the choices made by those people in U1. The uniqueness of this particular event is due to U1 and U3 being in the same thread.
Another fascinating thing about this Lambo, he didn’t have his Vongola ring from U3 (most likely because of Millefiore) and he didn’t have his Lightning Helm Ver. X indicating that the battle between the Vongola and Shimon possibly did not occur.
So universe 1 and universe 3 are connected, right? Yes. Universe 1 and 3 (later 4 and 5) are all parallel universes from the first thread. In this matter, the singularity is Universe 1 and without it, universes 3, 4, and 5 will not exist. But how can Lambo from universe 2 exchange himself from universe 1 if they do not even share the same threads? They are entangled. There must be a point of entanglement, a different singularity than universe 1, that allow these two universes to interact.
Lambo from universe 2 was right when tells Tsuna that the odd looking old horn is not his. It was owned by Lambo from universe 3 (thread 1).
4. UNIVERSE 4: 10YL!LAMBO (MILLEFIORE ERA)
This Lambo depicts Tsuna’s past self. It was very brief and it was just a small panel in the manga but in that brief moment, this Lambo reminded me of Tsuna from early in the series.
SEE THIS:
Tumblr media
This is an entirely different Lambo (U2) who often exchanges with Lambo (U1). 
This Lambo, although recognized by the grownup Vongola for this era as the lightning guardian is depicted to be weaker than I-pin but he is not a coward. Unlike Lambo (U2) who cried and run away from Levi during a decisive battle, this Lambo didn’t run. Both were in a life and death situation but this Lambo stayed. And he cared. He is scared but he stayed. 
Just like Tsuna who was weak but decided to fight and stay because they care.
The reason why Lambo from universe 2 is not too inclined to act for the Vongola is due to the fact that he is, after all, not even a member of the family. 
THIS! THIS IS THE FIRST 10YL!LAMBO THAT IS FROM THE VONGOLA FAMILY.
And this universe, UNIVERSE 4, is where hope was born. The only universe where they can defeat Byakuran and won over the whole Millefiore family. And it all started because of two Tsunas. The Tsuna who destroyed the Vongola rings therefore opening a possibility, a new singularity, for the first thread. And the Tsuna who decided to protect this new singularity with his family.
5. UNIVERSE 5: 10YL!LAMBO (REVAMP)
First of all, why revamp?
BECAUSE I SCREAMED PROUD WHEN HE APPEARED.
This is the Lambo that is a fledgling of the Vongola family.
Compared to the other two TYL, his air is more mature and confident. Whereas Lambo (U2) often fakes a graceful demeanor and Lambo (U4) seems to be more expressive and easily sensitive, this Lambo doesn’t fake his demeanor and he also knows how to express and control his emotions in the brief moment we see him.
He had an idea how to use the lightning helm ver. X and fought as if he had an actual experience in fighting (Again, unlike the Lambo from U2 and U4).
Also:
Tumblr media
He recognizes himself as a legit member of the Vongola Family. He respects Tsuna and he expressed a certain degree of gratefulness to be part of the Vongola Family.
Another thing, note that this Lambo do not seem to remember Ooyama because in universe 5, the Shimon family probably did not attack the Vongola. Either Daemon failed to control Shimon or the Shimon rings weren’t discovered. There are countless possibilities so …
[In case you forgot, the Shimon Rings (in U1) were discovered because of an earthquake caused by the returning Vongola family from Universe 4 to Universe 1]
The catch is this: although this Lambo seemed to be the direct line or future self of Lambo from universe 1, these two universes will never meet therefore the whole future of Lambo and the Vongola Family is still unknown.
Although present Lambo is the singularity and he can use the ten-year bazooka to see the future, it is irrelevant. He may end up in one of the parallel universes in thread 1 or he may also end up in any of the fine dust in thread 2. Or even in another thread. We do not know. 
THE POTENTIAL OF UNIVERSE 1 NOT ONLY FOR LAMBO BUT ALSO FOR THE WHOLE VONGOLA FAMILY IS LIMITLESS.
There are lots of possibilities. A lot of what-ifs. So yeah, there’s still a possibility that Tsuna will not be the boss of Vongola and Lambo will not be a guardian even after all the shts they’ve been through.
but don’t worry coz the possibilities/other parallel universes are all the fanfictions we read now sooooo
And for those who are asking: so who is the real Lambo? Which universe is real? In which universe is the real Vongola family in? The answer is, ALL OF THESE UNIVERSES ARE REAL AND ALL THE PEOPLE IN THESE UNIVERSES ARE REAL. My niece’s initial response was: then they’re all just people who share the same appearances and names but they are not the same so no one is real. I told her that they are the same and at the same time not so she shouldn’t individualize them too much. She said that doesn’t make sense so she’ll just imagine that there’s really just one person having different memories and experiences and she is kinda right about that.
In conclusion, Lambo is not just for comedic relief. I know that some people from the fandom finds him annoying and some even hates the idea that he was chosen as a guardian but Lambo is, literally, the singularity. Without Lambo, the plot will not be as interesting as it is. Without Lambo, the plot that we love will not move forward. Lambo is one of the evidence of Amano Akira’s genius writing. Some of you are just not ready for Lambo’s greatness.
Also, I may still be wrong. lol. Amano Akira may have different designs for the complex character of Lambo or Lambos but I definitely enjoyed writing this.
[Note: I used threads for analogy because of my 7 YEAR OLD NEPHEW. I originally used billiard balls for analogy when I was telling them these but they understood it better with the thread. ALL BECAUSE MY WONDERFUL NEPHEW IS SHOWING INTEREST IN FASHION AND HE CAN AT LEAST IMAGINE THE ABSTRACTNESS OF THE SHT I WAS TELLING ABOUT BY PROJECTING IT ON A CLOTHES’ THREAD. WHAT A LEGEND.]

Oh man reading the newest Ron Kamonohashi chapter (chapter 13 as of this writing btw) genuinely made me crackle at the reveal LMAO
Good Lord I know Amano-sensei likes to put the bigger picture in the bg as always (lookin' at you Giotto), but I'm actually now genuinely curious abt how the new plot point gonna build out to
Slightly spoiler-y I think, but the puzzle-solve part is still not as well executed as usual imo (DCMK has made me very picky with detective mangas, unfortunately...), I hope it'll get better in the future as they grow used to writing+explaining+executing it (ノ´ヮ´)ノ*: ・゚

Good lord, it finally sinked in to my head Ron Kamonohashi is the Reborn (aka boke) of the Ron-Toto duo (aka Reborn-Tsuna duo aka boke-tsukkomi duo) and why the heck I just got this realization today when it's that obv since the start???
I really need to stop reading these near midnight...

your haru im crying the colors the expression the flow everything is so perfect 🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️
Aww thank you for the kind words (´。• ᵕ •。`) ♡
I was picking whether I should draw Haru or Kyoko (since I stupidly just remembered the event and theme like on D-Day and just wanna draw one character for the sake of my hand and deadline haha), and I chose her 'cuz I remembered one of the ED for the anime had her hair loose and it's adorable and she's into making costumes so that makes sense in my mind at the time haha -- hopefully I'll draw another one (or at least one-by-one) with the rest of the girls 'cuz honestly we need more fanarts of them ( ⌣̀ ヮ ⌣́) ✧
Anyway, thanks again for liking it and I hope you also have a nice day Anon! (´ ω `♡)

Ohh, did they change/edit smth in the final volumes of eldlive? I'd really like to hear about the loose ends they managed to end well.
There were a couple iirc, though it’s mostly just expo dumb in the first chapter(?) of the 10th/11th volume
I’m basically writing this from the top of my head, so take it with a grain of salt dear anon haha
So obligatory “spoilers-ish down below” warning 8D
Btw this is in no particular order and mostly random imo haha
Mimi finally got married w/ the Yukimine-guy from vol 7-8-ish (the one where she held a card before Chuta and co got training from Madigan)
Matsutaro and Michiyo actually being part of the “fate-weavers” of Mothers and the reason why they (aside for Gucci ‘cuz he’s more of a collateral damage) had the mountain incident
King’s dead bro (the reason why Heaven Sider (aka King and Alba) started the whole “DESTROY ēlCIVILIZATION” shenanigans) was also part of the “fate-weavers” and the reason why he did that was to see which Monitalien (Drew (aka Chuta) or Migrane (aka King (yeah, that’s what he named it, ‘cuz it gives him headaches lol)) who’ll evolve(?) and be the one who’ll be the seed(?) to help Mothers’ Mother flourish
Chuta was able to “connect” w/ Drew again, ‘cuz Misuzu put some of Drew’s cells(?) in her discarded hair pin (the crescent moon shaped one and was held and buried on Earth by Chuta) and both Chuta and Drew still remember ‘cuz of their previous symbiosis(?)
Also the hair pin can disguise SPH, but we already knew that since she was able to use it to not think Chuta’s SPH as stinky
Also, also, Scarlet actually have one in her arm too
Lane Brick (still a funny name ngl) journey from being a pirate to an big bro officer guy so to help Misuzu avoid her fate as Mothers’ Mother and was the one who demanded her to be an officer like him in exchange the Mothers having his future-seeing right eye
Also they can’t kill him, ‘cuz the eye’ll get bad too (basically working under supervision)
Dr. Love and co surviving a crash via a life-boat and Matsutaro’s SPH (it was defense-related I think) and landed on one his fellow science-friends’ labs
The ēlDLIVE SSD (solar-system district) managed to be revived by Dr. Love ‘cuz Riggs drank an illegal and discontinued(?) motion-sickness medicine that had “pathogen antibody(?)” reactions before the impending “dusting” (aka that time they had a birthday party before the biggest party duster happened) and since the station was air-tight, it wasn’t contaminated w/ anything else (to quote Dr. Love “it’s been a series of lucky events” indeed lol)
Gucci having a deux ex machina (time-space null-thing) to help Chuta fight Heaven Sider, but eventually used it for the final fight w/ Mothers (he got the message from him only near the end lol)
THE FRIGGIN DREW-OOP MECHS FOR GLOCK AND CO
AND THEY’RE IMMEDIATELY ABLE TO SYMPATHIZE AS WELL BUT ONLY FOR LIKE 30 MINS OF ENERGY LOL
Also, that oop mechs was Scarlet’s research when Dr. Love went awol then gave it to him when they meet again later lol
Lane getting his eye back via Misuzu (as Mothers’ Mother) and told him to apprehend Keishi 4 years later (after time skip)
Kieshi (the blue guy, w/ long hair and beads crossing his face) being the semi-big-bad (along w/ Mothers I think and fate too, prolly)
Mothers wanting to killing 1/3, enslaving 1/3, and surviving the strongest 1/3 of ēlCivilization (also why “fate weaving” happened) ‘cuz there’s gonna be a “universe reset” in a couple of centuries and everyone in ēlCivilization’re gonna be wiped out, so they want to raise their survival-rate and made the “seed” (monitalien) to do that lol
Kieshi’s being the one who allowed the SSD died (’cuz “Mothers fate-weavers”) and also killed Scarlet (the old woman professor that Dr. Love met) to emulate the feeling of suffering like Chuta so he’ll “sympathize” w/ his “Drew” like him, ‘cuz of his love for her (he helped her escape from “her fate” before)
Also, he’s apparently the one why the “patogen antibody(?)” motion sickness medicine got banned and discontinued, ‘cuz he knows it could resist(?) the pathogen
Also, also apparently at one time Scarlet-Dr.Love is like Misuzu-Chuta (aka Mother-candidate-monitalien candidate) and the latter is basically the back up ‘cuz of the former(?)
An ēlDLIVE station who’s sent to the “fight destination” at first attacked the SSD, got into video-contact, suddenly signal got cut of video-contact after shouting “TRAITOR”, then when meeting up face-to-face they let them pass ‘cuz “in all the years of being an inspector, I dunno anymore which one to believe” (aka heel-turn moral compas moment, but okay)
Mothers and Kieshi trying to mass-produce “Drew-seed” and select the “surviors” to artificially implant them
Kieshi trying to defeat Chuta-Drew by becoming bigger, but failed ‘cuz the Kieshi-fake Drew duo doesn’t have the same bond/sympathy as Chuta-Drew (it’s an anti-climatic fight, from an action perspective imo)
Misuzu being kinda tsun-tsun abt her wishes and wants
Chuta being the bigger guy to let her go, but everyone in ēlCivilization told them just take her (the time-space-null-thing got cracked and now everyone can see what Misuzu-Chuta-Drew are thinking/projecting), we’ll find another way to survive the Big Wipeout w/ technology and stuff!
Misuzu finally accepting she wants to be w/ Chuta, Mothers basically got dissolved (since she resigned from it lol), and everyone has a happy ending :D
That’s pretty much things I can write atm (it’s arnd 1-2 a.m when I wrote this lmao), sorry if it got derailed a bit anon haha
Anyway even though I write it like that and thought the last two-ish volumes were a bit speedy info-dump-ish, I still enjoy reading them nonetheless -- I still recomend buying the volumes just for the sake of getting more context of my poorly-worded-words haha :”DDD
If you still have questions or smth, just let me know and I’ll try my best to be more eloquent and cohesive next time (and also w/ picture next time) haha (ノ´ヮ´)ノ*:・゚✧
Also in a not-so-related note: writing this has made me think ēlDLIVE has a womb metaphor and I dunno what to take of this thing...

I'm back with another instalment of "feeling nostalgic for more Glock and other moments I like from ēlDLIVE" 'cuz apparently I'm currently still stuck w/ this deserted fandom, more or less, atm lol
Tumblr media
Moments of Glock and also Chuta too honestly being the pubescent middle school boys they are and Nino's reaction to when they saw her like this (when w/ Chuta she got super embarrassed while with Glock she's actually super chill abt it) -- man I'm a sucker for those ship dynamics :"")))
I know people prolly think it's a bit... too open and fanservice-y (imho, it is lol), but since this was published in a shonen (boys)-targeted magazine (albeit a more wider-ranged one), SJ+ Imma assume it as typical shonen-fanservice lol
Slight spoiler-y if you’re not caught up w/ the manga BUT ANYWAY
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That time when Glock wanted to sacrifice himself to the Heaven Sider so his friends won't get killed and Nino having flashbacks abt her lil bro :"""))))))
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ALSO THIS PART WHEN THEY GOT REUNITED 4 YEARS LATER -- am I the only one who wants more of their friendships and team dynamics? Yeah, only me, okay :"""))))
Anyway, Glock being more carefree and chill (?) is def Luzhin's fault and I WHOLLY support his parenting skills (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Was reading through ēlDLIVE again after getting slightly nostalgic reading Amano-sensei's newest series (Ron Kamonohashi: Deranged Detective, it was a bit underwhelming imo, but hopefully with their track record of taking a bit longer on the "episodic" arc before it gets interesting, I hope it'll deliver soon) -- I really like how Nino's main concern during the Glock-reveal is his height and she repeated it twice and during the small breather segment in the car she got flustered and unconsciously thought Glock as her deceased lil bro
Nino is just a precious bean sometimes (´;ω;`)
But man it feels good to get those GlockNino hints and moments! I gotta start finishing those old (and now also new) GlockNino fics in my draft back burner (*´ω`*)
(Also bonus for adorable tsun-tsun Glock and my new headcanon of him being a young master with Luzhin as his doting dad (*´∀`*) )

Hey Bryn! I'm a young writer, and well, since I am young, everything I write isn't gonna be good. I'm ok with this. I'm working on developing my skills when I write, and not trying to whip out some next level Hemingway crap because that's just not really realistic for me and my skill level rn. I have run into a problem. I came up with this story idea that I really like. The only thing is that I'm not skilled enough to write it well. I should probably just write it, but I don't wanna hate it. ???
Here’s a cold hard truth (not the cold hard truth, just one of many potential ugly possibilities): Since your ability to conceive stories is generally always above that of your actual writing skill, by the time you reach the skill you need to tackle the story easily, there’s a high chance you won’t even like the idea very much anymore because you’ll have grown as a story creator and have something even better that you’re head over heals for.
Sometimes it doesn’t happen like this. Sometimes story ideas stick with people for decades. But quite often those are either cases in which the writer is already well skilled in their craft, or they aren’t actively practicing as they should be and therefore aren’t actually growing as a writer.
My advice: 
If you love an idea even after you’ve done all your prep work, and you still love that idea once you’ve written the first few chapters, then damn your skill level and write it.
(I say this as someone who decided for their very first full novel they would wing a complex political masterpiece of drama and betrayal with dozens of prominent characters and interwoven plot lines. It was a stupid decision, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.)
It will be hard. It won’t turn out the way you want it to and you will probably hate it from time to time. You’ll be frustrated and angry and if you’re anything like me, there will be tears and metaphorical blood.
But you’ll grow as a writer. 
And if you push through, and you keep edited that story until it’s close to the vision you originally loved, then you’ll learn so much more then you ever could have had you stuck to the things you thought you were capable of.
As in all areas of life, your writing skill won’t grow unless you attempt things you don’t yet know how to do.
It’s not your skill level that will prevent you from writing this story.It’s your dedication to writing it.
tl;dr If you love a story idea, then write it. You grow into the skill level of the stories you chose to write, but only if your dedication to them will carry you through the learning process.
