◤￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣ 　 Tension Card 　　 “Cornerstone of Supremacy” ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿◢

I will fight alongside my new comrades in Chiyoda Tribe.

After completing his late-night patrol, Ichinosuke Akiba returned to the Akiba manor. As he entered, he noticed a light still on in the living room.

Sliding open the door, he found Hinagiku sitting there, completely absorbed in needlework.

"You'll wear yourself out if you stay up too late."

"Brother..."

It was already the dead of night, and even for a well-trained ninja, exhaustion would creep in without proper rest.

"You've been working on something for days now. Don't push yourself too hard. Even if he remains mum on the issue, I'm sure Saizo is worried too."

"But... I just can't sleep."

Hinagiku clenched her fists tightly, eyes lowered.

"Ever since Chiyoda Castle fell... there's been no sign of Master Ojiro. I can't stop thinking about it..."

"Even so, you need to rest when you can."

"And what about you, Brother? You were out searching for him too, weren't you?"

Ichinosuke fell silent. She was right on the mark.

Hinagiku adjusted the fabric in her hands and continued sewing.

"If I simply stay awake, my mind fills with nothing but awful thoughts. So instead, I focus on this. That way when Master Ojiro returns, he'll have something waiting for him."

The fabric was fine black cloth, perfectly balanced in elasticity and texture. She had chosen the highest quality material she knew, because when their master returned, it would mark a new beginning. As members of the Akiba Ninja Legion, they would stand by his side once more.

"This time, I will fight by his side to the very end. And to prove that resolve, I need to take action."

A moment of silence passed between them.

The only sound left in the room was the soft rustling of fabric.

Then, Ichinosuke finally spoke.

"Do you need anything?"

"What's that, Brother?"

"You're not the only one who wishes to stand with him when he returns. If there's anything I can do, I'll help."

"Thank you!"

"No need for thanks. We will have this ready by the time our lord returns."

With renewed determination, the two nodded in unison.

Somehow, the uneasy feeling that had been weighing on them just moments ago had faded away.

"That said, I shall be Lord Ojiro's battery."

"What—!? I'm obviously the catcher! I even made a custom glove just for this purpose!"

"Receiving Lord Ojiro's pitches requires more than just strength. It demands absolute resolve! No one possesses a stronger resolve than I do!"

"Brother, you're outfield material at best!"

Now fully energized, the two bickered back and forth, until the half-open sliding door suddenly was slammed fully open with force.

"Both of you pipe down! Do you have any idea what time it is?!"

Standing there in pajamas, looking completely exasperated, was Saizo. After an intense tongue-lashing, the two reluctantly retreated to bed.

🗼Re:NEO-TOKYO fanzine project 🗼

Hey yall!! So me and my friends have come with an idea on making a Tribe Nine fanzine! ✨🌸

It's a project where we let creative fans be in a part of this zine! Whether it's an art, writing, or even cosplay!

The application is now open and the infos will be there!

Here!!

Hope to see y'all there!

[pm1073-b]

Guys, it's so cool how tribe nine actually isn't cancelled and they're adding Ryoma. It was so cool of them to make me Saizos husband too guys- *screeching sounds as they carry me away to the incinerator*

Bonus of the lil sprite I made

[pm1073-b]

Ryoma sketch. thing. Yeah. Ignore the Desuhiko drawn over the wigglytuff card-

[pm1073-b]

Don't fucking talk to me, they're shutting down Tribe Nine

[pm1073-b]

the way the term "purity culture" has effectively been stolen from survivors of religious abuse by fandom weirdos who think theyre oppressed for shipping incest is truly abysmal

A general cane guide for writers and artists (from a cane user, writer, and artist!)

Disclaimer: Though I have been using a cane for 6 years, I am not a doctor, nor am I by any means an expert. This guide is true to my experience, but there are as many ways to use a cane as there are cane users!

This guide will not include: White canes for blindness, crutches, walkers, or wheelchairs as I have no personal experience with these.

This is meant to be a general guide to get you started and avoid some common mishaps/misconceptions in your writing, but you absolutely should continue to do your own research outside of this guide!

This is NOT a medical resource!!! And never tell a real person you think they're using a cane wrong!

The biggest recurring problem I've seen is using the cane on the wrong side. The cane goes on the opposite side of the pain! If your character has even-sided pain or needs it for balance/weakness, then use the cane in the non-dominant hand to keep the dominant hand free. Some cane users also switch sides to give their arm a rest!

A cane takes about 20% of your weight off the opposite leg. It should fit within your natural gait and become something of an extension of your body. If you need more weight off than 20%, then crutches, a walker, or a wheelchair is needed.

Putting more pressure on the cane, using it on the wrong side, or having it at the wrong height can make it less effective, and can cause long term damage to your body from improper pressure and posture. (Hugh Laurie genuinely hurt his body from years of using a cane wrong on House!)

(some people elect to use a cane wrong for their personal situation despite this, everyone is different!)

(an animated GIF of a cane matching the natural walking gait. It turns red when pressure is placed on it.)

When going up and down stairs, there is an ideal standard: You want to use the handrail and the cane at the same time, or prioritize the handrail if it's only on one side. When going up stairs you lead with your good leg and follow with the cane and hurt leg together. When going down stairs you lead with the cane and the bad leg and follow with the good leg!

Realistically though, many people don't move out of the way for cane users to access the railing, many stairs don't have railings, and many are wet, rusty, or generally not ideal to grip.

In these cases, if you have a friend nearby, holding on to them is a good idea. Or, take it one step at a time carefully if you're alone.

Now we come to a very common mistake I see... Using fashion canes for medical use!

(These are 4 broad shapes, but there is INCREDIBLE variation in cane handles. Research heavily what will be best for your character's specific needs!)

The handle is the contact point for all the weight you're putting on your cane, and that pressure is being put onto your hand, wrist, and shoulder. So the shape is very important for long term use!

Knob handles (and very decorative handles) are not used for medical use for this reason. It adds extra stress to the body and can damage your hand to put constant pressure onto these painful shapes.

The weight of a cane is also incredibly important, as a heavier cane will cause wear on your body much faster. When you're using it all day, it gets heavy fast! If your character struggles with weakness, then they won't want a heavy cane if they can help it!

This is also part of why sword canes aren't usually very viable for medical use (along with them usually being knob handles) is that swords are extra weight!

However, a small knife or perhaps a retractable blade hidden within the base might be viable even for weak characters.

Bases have a lot of variability as well, and the modern standard is generally adjustable bases. Adjustable canes are very handy if your character regularly changes shoe height, for instance (gotta keep the height at your hip!)

Canes help on most terrain with their standard base and structure. But for some terrain, you might want a different base, or to forego the cane entirely! This article covers it pretty well.

Many cane users decorate their canes! Stickers are incredibly common, and painting canes is relatively common as well! You'll also see people replacing the standard wrist strap with a personalized one, or even adding a small charm to the ring the strap connects to. (nothing too large, or it gets annoying as the cane is swinging around everywhere)

(my canes, for reference)

If your character uses a cane full time, then they might also have multiple canes that look different aesthetically to match their outfits!

When it comes to practical things outside of the cane, you reasonably only have one hand available while it's being used. Many people will hook their cane onto their arm or let it dangle on the strap (if they have one) while using their cane arm, but it's often significantly less convenient than 2 hands. But, if you need 2 hands, then it's either setting the cane down or letting it hang!

For this reason, optimizing one handed use is ideal! Keeping bags/items on the side of your free hand helps keep your items accessible.

When sitting, the cane either leans against a wall or table, goes under the chair, or hooks onto the back of the chair. (It often falls when hanging off of a chair, in my experience)

When getting up, the user will either use their cane to help them balance/support as they stand, or get up and then grab their cane. This depends on what it's being used for (balance vs pain when walking, for instance!)

That's everything I can think of for now. Thank you for reading my long-but-absolutely-not-comprehensive list of things to keep in mind when writing or drawing a cane user!

Happy disability pride month! Go forth and make more characters use canes!!!
