Keisara/Sarakei headcanons if it doesn't make you uncomfortable? If possible, in a happy au with living Joe?

God i love KeiSara ❤️

You know as soon as Joe notices the constant flirting between Keiji and Sara he starts playing matchmaker because that's what Sara would do for him

Every time he's left alone with Keiji he just starts talkin up his bff like "hey Keiji isn't Sara an amazing leader? She's very smart too! Wouldn't she just make the best detective partner??"

And with Sara: "SARA I just saw Keiji do thirty push-ups with Gin and Kanna on his back. Hes sooo gentle and strong!!"

Not that they need much help, Joe knows they're crazy about each other, he just wants to give them a little push bc he can't wait to go on double dates with them and Ryoko, so he starts setting them up more and more.

"Keiji I just saw Sara struggling to get her shoes down from the top of the closet so you should definitely go help her."

"How did they get up there in the first place?"

"..."

Cue Keiji walking by and just casually lifting her up

"Sara I don't think Keiji's gone into his room in over 17 hours you need to go check he's not dying."

Cue Sara making sure Keiji gets some rest by staying with him while he sleeps like he did for her.

And a Very sleep-deprived Keiji finally —finally— telling Sara they should just date already,,

Sara thinks its a joke and plays along "so you want Joe off your back already, huh"

"well theres that, but mostly its just getting hard for me to resist kissing you when we spend so much time together."

They get together, but they don't tell Joe about it just yet bc you know what? He's really helpful in finding them some alone time

Single headcanon #5

Babies can purr in utero.

Babies can and do purr while still in their mama’s belly. It usually happens inicially inbetween the the middle to end of the second trimester, almost getting in the third, when the baby can regognize voices and is well developed enough to express itself though purring.

In my verse babies don’t “kick”, so if the Omega/Alpha baby purrs, it’s a sign that everything is developing well and fine. They can purr at “random”, out of pure joy, but usually they’ll purr because of an specific thing or someone. That is because babies’ purring is directly linked to their mother’s own contentment.

“A happy Omega is a happy baby” is a very truthful statement. If an Omega is unhappy, discontent, feeling threatened or scared the baby will most likely pick up on that. Sometimes the child will even be born with a clear distaste for certain scents or people they associated with bad things through their mother’s body.

However babies also pick up on the good things, they can recognise their mother’s mate through the bodily reactions their mother unintentionally “sends” them alone. And there is nothing that makes an Alpha (or any other mate by that matter) prouder than to be the source of their baby’s purring. It means they’re good partners for their mates and that they genuinely make them happy, and by proxy make their baby happy.

This is not restricted to a biological bond either. A baby will recognise its father through the information they’re fed by the mother, so even if the Alpha/Beta/Omega is not their biological father/mother, were the Omega to recognise them as “mate” the baby would recognise them as their dad/mom also. Which is why unstable relationships or abandonment in later stages of the pregnancy is consider harmful not just to the mother, but also the baby.

It also makes mothers ticklish, when their babies purr, you can feel the vibration from the outside as well, but to the mother it feels like butterflies fluttering inside their belly. It’s cute.

Bungo Stray Dogs Season 3 [Fifteen Arc] Theater Screening

Talk show with Bones Producer Suzuki, Kadokawa Producer Kurakane, Kadokawa Manga Editor Katou

2019 May 7

Cinema Sunshine, Ikebukuro

Sharing some bullet points that the staff talked about in the event:

Talks of having season 3 started around the time of the post-recording of Dead Apple. At that time, Fifteen had not been released so ofc it was not under consideration yet.

As has been revealed before, Asagiri-sensei was tasked to do only a 50-page bonus for the Dead Apple movie. He finished Fifteen first, and it ended up three times longer than what was asked, and though was really sorry about it, cannot make it shorter and turns out he is not actually good with writing short stories. BEAST even got longer than Fifteen, but in the end as the stories were really good, the bonuses were still given away as they are, now thick as books.

They started considering animating Fifteen when the ‘higher-ups’ (as in sensei, producers, scriptwriter, etc.) had a meeting together. In the end, scriptwriter Enokido wrote a draft which everybody liked.

The main point of animating Fifteen is that it helps build the world of Bungo Stray Dogs. By connecting the past and the present, it develops a deeper understanding of the characters, and also shows how the beloved city that Atsushi and the characters are now protecting came to be. Fifteen also showed the connection with the other canon material with Suribachi City, and Mukurotoride (Shibusawa’s base) in the background.

Animating Fifteen was planned to be a surprise to the fans, though a few days before the airing they learned that the information got leaked over twitter. This also happened back then with Dark Era, and Producer Kurakane shares that she was called by her boss regarding the incident. It went like, “This is the second time it failed, don’t you think there is no point in making it a surprise?” She said this just gave her the motivation to try harder to prevent the secret from getting spoiled next time.

The staff was really impressed with the voice acting, saying praises to Miyano, Taniyama, and Uchida-san. They thought it would be difficult but when they heard Mamo and Kishou doing the recording, it really gave them the feeling of how young Dazai and Chuuya were, and that these two really had a history. Furthermore, Randou only appeared in this arc but Uchida-san’s acting was really memorable to them.

They think 15 yr old Dazai is different from today’s Dazai, with 15 Dazai being really dark, and wanting to die for real.

From 15 to his present height, Chuuya only grows 5 cm 😅😅 He kept on saying, “I’ll still grow!” but everybody (staff and fans alike) couldn’t resist saying, “No, you won’t” deep inside. (lol Chuuya we love you)

The staff was particularly glad seeing the last scene getting animated, as it came from the original manga. The art, especially with the stained glass, was also remarkable.

They also talked about the 3rd season’s OP and ED. Unlike the 1st and 2nd seasons’, the OP and ED for the 3rd season were specifically made to serve as a message of thanks to the fans. Instead of appealing to new fans of BSD, these OP and ED were made to express gratitude to the fans who have been here together with BSD’s journey. The scenes were meaningfully chosen and show what the characters have been through.

Producer Kurakane was particularly emotional with the ED and says that she tends to tear up watching it. She also pointed out that Atsushi and Akutagawa were singing in the ED.

Producer Suzuki adds that Dead Apple ended with the Armed Detective Agency door closing, while the season 3 ED ends with that door opening.

The staff is really grateful to the fans’ love and support, and they are really happy that BSD did not only end with one season of 12 episodes, but is now continuing with the 3rd season, and even extending to other platforms such as the movie and the stage play. Just like Dead Apple, treat season 3 as their present.

Once again, I felt the staff’s love and dedication to BSD, which makes you appreciate it more knowing that this is a work made by the staff and fans’ love. 😭😭

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

The full version of the Fifteen light novel will be released on August 1, featuring the cover, frontispiece, and other illustrations such as the character sheets by Harukawa-sensei.

Sequel for the Fifteen light novel entitled, “Bungo Stray Dogs: STORM BRINGER” is currently on the works and is to be released in 2020. “Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya. What will their chance meeting lead to?”

Everyone, please keep supporting Bungo Stray Dogs in any legal way you can!! And ofc spread the LOVE!! 💖💖

Fiction and stories aside, if there’s anything you see anywhere that you don’t like or “triggers” you, move along.

See something troubling online? Keep scrolling and don’t start harassing or complaining to the original poster.

See something uncomfortable in public? Keep walking and ignore it.

Hate to break it to ya but there’s always going to be something in this world that will bother you and you don’t have to throw a fit over it every time you’re mildly uncomfortable. It’s called being an adult.

Don’t like certain themes in a fic? You can always stop reading and move on to something else.

~ ~

Don’t enjoy the characterizations in a fic? Is it too OOC for you? Feel free to stop reading and move on to something else.

~ ~

Content of a certain fic might be triggering or upsetting to you? Please stop reading and move on to something else.

~ ~

It is *always* a reader’s responsibility to decide what they do and do not read. It is *not* the writer’s job to adhere to anyone else’s standards or preferences.

~ ~

If you send hate to an author because of something you didn’t like about their plot or characters or warnings, that is you trying to misguidedly place blame on the author, rather than taking your own responsibility for not putting down the fic and just. Moving. On. To. Something. Else.

made it in time for 5/4 

[shsl-painful]

I personally don’t see a need to add them because they were anime only characters that got shoehorned in and tbh I honestly hated all of them but Kira and Eiiji.

The only way I’d be “ok” with them being added is if they got a completely separate half of the game like Love Live did between μ’s and aqours and if the Starish/QN side didn’t get neglected due to the new half of the game. I think 11 characters is the higher end of a comfortability scale in a gacha game and 7 more would start making people angry that they’re getting less of the characters they were hoping to get. I’d rather have good content and depth in the game vs 5 mins of love here and there on occassion. Quality over quantity.

Everyone’s allowed to have their own opinion on it, but if your argument is that these boys are new and different and offer more selection for the trope pool, I believe you’re sadly mistaken. With the exception of Eiichi and Nagi (maybe Shion), every other character was made to mirror the one they were made to rival.

Tokiya and Eiiji both are naturally talented and kinda your level headed realists for their groups.

Masato and Kira both come from rich families, had to deny taking over their family companies and are the logical, cool headed character.

Syo and Yamato are both hot headed loudmouths that have physical strength obsessions. (Yamato really was a bad knockoff Syo imo, sorry. Fix your problems with your brother by actually talking and working it out instead of petty “I’m going to beat you” tactics)

Ren and Van are both womanizers and what people in the show would describe as very good looking. (Van is also just another bad knockoff brand that actually lacks class and toys with Haruka just to get to Ren. Sorry, not a character I’d want to see a route for in an otome.)

Cecil and Shion were probably the most diverse out of the rest of them, but even still they were both the character added last to their respective groups. The anime heavily played on Shion having to “do good” for Heavens to be accepted, all the while he was being unproffessional and disrespectful the whole time during the joint collab (The one and only time I was sympathetic for Cecil). To me that just shows how disfunctional Heavens is as not only a group but from a character develepememt standpoint.

My dislike for Heavens in general is because they literally pushed their way into the storyline trying to make themselves relevant as “Starish 2.0”. Them butting in on a battle that they weren’t even invited to and then QN not taking the win because they felt conflicted that uninvited outsiders could be better is absolute bullshit.

TL;DR

Why should we add 7 more boys that are just shittier versions of tropes we already have? Shining Live has enough going on as is and if they keep adding characters, it’s going to desaturate the experience, especially when it’s a knockoff of what’s already being produced.

Create a second half of the game people could ignore if you’re going to add them.

Utapri in general with Starish and QN characters included is far from quality content, I will happily say this is trash even if I love it, but Heavens is really unneeded, in the same way I feel Cecil was unneeded.

“Why can’t people get along without criticizing one another?..Each individual has his own way of living. Can we not learn to respect one another’s chosen way? One makes every effort to live in a dignified and proper manner, without harming anyone else, yet people will carp and cavil and try to tear one down. It’s most vexing.”

Nakahara Chūya Trivia

His old surname was Kashiwamura. Later on, because the Nakahara family (his mother’s side) was a wealthy landowner, his surname was changed to Nakahara.

He was a prodigy in elementary school. However, when his brother died in 1915, he turned to composing poetry out of sorrow. He later failed middle school because he was too engrossed in literature.

He translated around 60 poems by the French poet Arthur Rimbaud into Japanese. Due to their similar lifestyles, he gained the nickname ‘The Japanese Rimbaud’. (Other Source)

He had a mistress, Hasegawa Yasuko, when he was 17; she was noted to be older and taller than him. However, the following year, she left Nakahara to live with his best friend Kobayashi Hideo, which frustrated him greatly. (Other Source)

After Kobayashi left Hasegawa, she married and had a child; she named Nakahara Chuuya the child’s godfather.

Chuuya was noted to adore children, and spoiled them rotten. When his eldest son, Fumiya, died at the age of two, Chuuya had a mental breakdown and had to be hospitalized for a month.

After his death, Hasegawa Yasuko established the Nakahara Chuuya Prize to honor him. The prize only lasted a few years, with Tachihara Michizou as one of its notable winners. Another award with the same name was established in 1996 by Yamaguchi City.

He greatly looked up to Miyazawa Kenji, and he had been noted to hum Miyazawa’s poems from time to time.

He once spent a month in jail for smashing street lamps while in a drunken rage.

He was 151.5 cm (about 4'11.5") in height. The Bungou Stray Dogs version of Chuuya is 160 cm, so they actually made him taller.

He remained close friends with Kobayashi Hideo all his life, and entrusted the manuscript for Songs of Bygone Days to him while on his deathbed.

He died at age 30 due to cerebral meningitis.

Because of their lyrical qualities, many of his poems were used as lyrics in songs.

It is possible to buy an exact replica of his hat from the Nakahara Chuuya Memorial Museum.

“Some of Nakahara’s images and metaphors may strike the Western reader as strange. Notes have been provided wherever helpful, but in general this strangeness is not a product of any culture gap, nor of the translation process. It is Nakahara’s own.” - from the Note on Translation from The Poems of Nakahara Chūya

Nakahara worked one the only issue of the Blue Flower Magazine with Dazai Osamu and the two hated each other immediately. Dazai Osamu invited Kazuo Dan and Chuya to a bar in Higashi Nakano and described Chuya as looking like “a blue mackerel floating in the sky.” (Source 1, Source 2)

His ideal woman, the inspiration for his poem Michiko, was Hayama Michiko (the screen name of Ishikawa Seiko). She was also Tanizaki Junichirou’s sister-in-law and the model for the character Naomi in his novel A Fool’s Love. (Source)
