#EXCEPT FOR TOUYA THE GOAT

[spicy-cannoli]

Card Captor Sakura

part of the reason I think it’s so sad that we collectively write so few stories about unrequited love is bc I feel like there’s very little public acknowledgment of how much it sucks to be the one somebody is in unrequited love with??? and not in a way of like, oh they’re crossing boundaries or putting expectations on me or whatever. becoming close friends with someone and then finding out they’re in love with you and you don’t love them back the same way is heartbreaking, bc a) someone you love is in pain and there is literally nothing you can do about it, and b) it usually means that whether you like it or not there’s going to be distance in your friendship that wasn’t there before as they try to get over you. idk man I just feel like we’ve all discussed the tragedy of loving someone who doesn’t love you back quite a lot and very rarely discuss the tragedy of finding out the way that you love someone just isn’t enough.

[theshinazugawaslut]

could u also do it the other way around with three characters u love from each anime watched?

a/n: i'm genuinely so surprised all y'all want my opinions on this stuff xxx

MY HERO ACADEMIA

Bakugo Katsuki (my glorious carmine-eyed king, they could never make me hate you. he genuinely has some of the best writing and development i've ever seen, and i love characters who have boatloads of ambition.)

Todoroki Touya/Dabi (what a fucking guy, he's got such dramatic flair and his design is genuinely so sick. his backstory makes me sob every time but he's just so amazing. his writing is genuinely so brilliant, too!)

Midoriya Izuku/Deku (him, Katsuki, and Shoto really emphasise what it means to be a hero in different ways but Izuku contradicts typical hero society at its core. and he's a hero at his own core, too, and i love him so much for it!)

special mentions: todoroki shoto, hawks/takami keigo, all might, kirishima eijirou, aizawa shouta, shigaraki tomura/tenko shimura, nana shimura, tamaki amajiki/suneater, yaoyorozu momo, himiko toga, rody soul

DEMON SLAYER

Sanemi Shinazugawa (was there ever a fucking doubt? my goat, my king, my lord, my saviour, my husband, my everything in this world. writing, backstory, design, voice is mwah mwah mwah)

Tanjiro Kamado (he's such a beautiful, pure-hearted soul, i could go on about him for years. if you don't like tanjiro, you're probably genuinely a dickhead)

Mitsuri Kanroji (sweetest girl in the whole world, i feel as though her character is very universal whilst simultaneously being unique. though i feel like people constantly put her down a dumb bimbo when she's a whole ass hashira who fought an uppermoon and muzan)

special mentions: yoriichi tsugikuni, michikatsu tsugikuni, muzan kibutsuji , gyutaro shabana, lady tamayo, nezuko kamado, genya shinazugawa, kotaha hashibira, rengoku kyojuro, rengoku senjuro, sabito fujikasane

JUJUTSU KAISEN

Choso Kamo (he's one of the best big brothers ever and he's the nicest boy in the whole wide world; i love his writing. best boy)

Itadori Yuuji (he deserves the whole entire fucking world, i wanna eat him up he's the goddamn cutest and he has such a kind heart i love him so much!)

Kugisaki Nobara (i love how well Gege showed her and she's the best written female character in JJK, especially how well she handles being 'feminine' and 'masculine', was very upset at her destiny)

special mentions: inumaki toge, geto suguru, sukuna ryomen/dickhead, uraume

ATTACK ON TITAN

Levi Ackerman (best character in aot hands-down, the warmest heart in the whole world and just such a cool badass to watch!)

Eren Jaeger (one of the best MC's in anime, his turn was both unexpected, devastating, and absolutely brilliant.)

Pieck Finger (I love her so much; she's so pretty and smart, like her intelligence genuinely blows me away!)

VANITAS NO CARTE

Noe Archiviste (what a fucking hottie cutie patootie. i genuinely love his positivity so, so much!)

Vanitas (he's so ethereal and mysterious, i love his aesthetic!)

Vanitas (except the majestical one who raised the MC Vanitas; they/she/he were so fucking cool!)

SERAPH OF THE END

Guren (i would literally combust for him)

Shin'Ya (love this bro)

Mikaela (blondie)

ANGELS OF DEATH

Zack/Isaac Foster (I LOVE HIM SO FUCKING MUCH, I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR ZACK !!! ANYTHING !!!)

Rachel Gardner (genuinely such a well-written mc and her bond with Zack was so, so good!)

[writingat-night]

tagged by my lovely mutual @tauremornalome in the first line game!

rules: list the first lines of your last 20 stories (if you have less than 20, just list them all!). see if there are any patterns. choose your favourite opening line.

tagging: @plotdesigner @shuttymcshutfuck and anyone else who wants to! (feel free to let me know if you want to be tagged next time i do one of these writing tag games — i honestly just don’t know which of you write)

okay. so the thing about my writing is that i never fucking finish it, and a lot of my wips are just a jumble of unconnected scenes. technically, i have more than 20 (unfinished) stories, but i’ll only be posting the ones that a) actually Have A First Line, and b) i hope to finish at some point in the distant future.

1. blue seas to mulberry fields (the untamed, nhs-centric, the only half decent fic i’ve ever published)

Jin Guangyao is dead.

He’s dead, run through by Lan Xichen’s sword, crushed under a hundred tonnes of rubble and debris. He is gone.

Nie Huaisang knows this. He does. But one man’s death is nothing compared to a lifetime. Compared to years of shouting for Meng Yao when he needed help. Compared to years of calling him San-ge. Compared to a decade of planning revenge.

2. theon greyjoy and the horrible, terrible, no good, very bad day(s) (working title) (game of thrones/asoiaf, theon-centric)

Theon doesn’t know when, exactly, his status in Winterfell changes from prisoner to ward.

The first time he is a prisoner is during the Siege of Pyke. He isn’t a prisoner of Winterfell, not yet. But a prisoner is a prisoner is a prisoner all the same, regardless of if he’s locked in a cell or trapped in his own home.

3. take a chance, remake the world (game of thrones/asoiaf, starks-centric)

Two years, four months, and seventeen days after his coronation, King Brandon Stark, Bran the Broken, first of his name, wakes with a purpose. His first true purpose in a long time. He must go today.

4. your place in the family of things (game of thrones/asoiaf, sansa and theon-centric)

Sansa has always prided herself on her composure. When she was a child, she had spent hours in front of the mirror perfecting her curtsy and her posture and her politest smile. She always says please and thank you and she knows her manners better than any of her siblings ever did. She does all her homework and raises her hand in class when she knows the answer (which is almost always) and earns A-stars in almost every test. She never loses her temper or complains about her workload. Her parents spent a lot of time and money to get her and her sister into this school. She knows that, and she’s grateful for it.

She’s certainly not the kind of girl who breaks down sobbing over her French notes. And yet.

5. untitled whisper of the heart au (the untamed, sangcheng and nie bros-centric)

Nie Huaisang would like to say, for the record, that he has the worst brother in the world.

Objectively, he is aware that worse people exist. Meng Yao, for one. Jin Guangshan definitely makes the cut. Jin Zixun– well, Huaisang hasn’t talked to him since the time he punched him in the face in junior middle school, but he’s sure he’s still an asshole. Maybe Jins just suck, like, as a rule. (Excluding Zixuan. Except, actually, he is kind of a dick. He’s working on it, though, so Huaisang will cut him some slack.)

But as a brother? Mingjue is the worst.

6. bastards anonymous (working title, obviously) (game of thrones/asoiaf, baratheon bastards-centric)

Gendry should have known that Secret Santa with Arya was a bad idea. It’s their first time including her in the present-giving, and they were very clear about the five pound limit. Not a one of them earns above minimum wage, except Arya. She doesn’t have a job, but her allowance is more than Gendry gets paid in a month.

7. the todorokis gtfo (working title) (bnha, todorokis and hawks-centric)

Fuyumi is not a good daughter.

She is not like Shouto. She is not the prodigy, the golden child, the future hero. She doesn’t have a quirk so strong it nearly burnt down the house when it first manifested, a quirk so perfectly balanced that even his appearance reflects it. She doesn’t have a destiny laid out in front of her, ready to be followed like a gold-paved road.

She isn’t a bad child, either, she hopes. Not like Natsuo. They might both be the middle children, in a way (although she’s technically tied for eldest with Touya, she is six minutes younger than him), both the failures, both invisible, but she’s content with that. Natsuo isn’t. She tries to balance out his anger at their father, to get him to just keep his head down and do as he’s told, but the more time he spends with Touya, the more rebellious he becomes.

But, then, she supposes it makes sense, given his circumstances. After all, Fuyumi might not have the unbeatable quirk their father dreamed of, but at least she has one.

8. show me where my armour ends (bnha, dabihawks, because i refuse to let go of this ship and i hate canon)

If there’s a better end to a day of hero work than a shower hot enough to turn his skin as bright red as his wings, Hawks hasn’t found it yet. Being a hero might be hard, but it’s damn worth it for the feeling of washing away grit and blood under scalding water, if for nothing else. After the day he’s had, he’s more than earned it.

9. untitled modern au (game of thrones/asoiaf, theon and the starks centric)

For all that his children seem to believe otherwise, Ned Stark is not an idiot. He has five kids, a sixth on the way, and he has learned something about being a parent in the past eight years.

He is not fooled when Robb comes down for dinner five minutes early, smiling brightly, and says, “Hi, Daddy! Do you want me to set the table?”

Robb had stopped calling him and Cat Mummy and Daddy at the start of the school year, because no-one calls their parents that anymore, Dad, come on, I’m in Primary Four now. He only uses it now when he wants something. And he never offers to set the table.

10. houses out of cardboard boxes (voltron (i know, i know, i’m sorry), adashi)

Adam isn’t nervous, per se. Adam Wadekar doesn’t do nervous. It’s just that this is his first time at a new school since he started teaching, so he may be a little out of practise

(Also, he’s back in California for the first time in years, after vowing to never return. But, whatever. Not the point.)

11. untitled character study (pjo, will solace-centric)

As a rule, Will is nonviolent. Between a staunchly pacifist mom, a complete lack of athletic ability, and a pathological urge to please people, he doesn’t think he could hurt another person if he tried.

But when you walk into your kitchen to see a man with goat legs and two teenagers holding swords, all common sense sort of goes out the window.

hmm. i feel like all of them have a similar.... vibe, but i can’t pin down a pattern, per se. i tend to open with a fact about a character and then some kind of contradiction, a lot of the time. i think my favourites are probably blue seas to mulberry fields, your place in the family of things, the todorokis gtfo, and the will solace one. (mainly blue seas, though. i will fucking finish that fic if it Kills Me)

Coming soon...Evilmen Academy AU

Ikemen Academy is not what it seems. At first glance, it’s a prestigious learning institution–but what the public doesn’t know is that Ikemen is training the next generation of killers and villains. Betrayal, lies, and manipulation is common…and what’s more, encouraged, amongst the students and staff.

To gain entry, you must murder…and to graduate, you must commit the same atrocity. How will Evilmen Academy fare when an unsuspectingly innocent maiden stumbles upon their campus? Only time will tell.

The classes are divided into four groups:

    Overlord, the highest rank. People in this class does not have to do anything yet there are a lot of people who’d beg to do their bidding. This position shows charisma and ability to lead and makes idea on how to kill their targets.

    Silent Killer, the second rank. Silent Killers have their own special method of killing. Since they still have to do things on their own, they are lower than Overlords.

    Enchanter, also known as the second rank. The difference between an Enchanter and a Silent Killer is their method. Silent Killers use a weapon while Enchanters use more of their mind, voice, and seduction.

    Anti-Hero, the lowest rank. People on this level are faced with threats of being eliminated from the school. The Anti-Hero rank is also offered special classes and courses to get them to a higher level.

Izumi (Nerd Senpai) AH

Izumi claims it was a mistake. He accidentally killed his best friend by mixing the wrong ingredients for the tea they drank when they had a study date. Since then, his reputation as a diligent student was tarnished, and he had no other school to go but the one that offered him placement for his misdeeds.

Yuu (Young Senpai) SK

Yuu says that the bunny he brings is sentient. It whispers to him things he needed to do, people to not trust and who to kill before they hurt him while also telling him what and how to do certain things. The Academy claimed his madness as his way of hiding his true ability as a natural born killer.

Ren (Lazy Senpai) E

Ren was accepted by his manipulative ability to have someone to do his bidding. He and Reiji were qualified by burning their old junior high school.

Touya (Art Club Senpai) SK

Rumors say Touya has multiple personalities that could be accessed by inhaling a particular pigment. For now, what is known as the yellow pigment triggers his murderous ability, the blue pigment returns him to a calm state, and the green pigment made him forget his deeds. He woke up in a mess in his art club smiling at his blood-stained masterpiece.

Hajime (School Festival Senpai) AH

Hajime was involved in an accident with a festival he held. There was a miscommunication with the fireworks department that resulted in several of the staff members losing their lives. As no other school accepted him for his reputation, he was tested by the Academy to kill one of his younger staff member who was rumored to be the cause of the miscommunication. He got accepted to the Academy afterward.

Reiji (Science Lab Senpai) SK

Reiji was overly eager and easy to please. His knowledge and ability in pyrotechnics was renowned not only in the science department. It was a shock when he used his technique to burn the school for some reason not specified, but the Academy has received both his and Ren’s admission letters to know what they had done.

Shun (Gamer Senpai) E

Shun was an ordinary student. Aside from his hobbies of playing games, he appears to not be hostile. In the gaming world, however, be is known as the number one reason why young students commit suicide. Armed with just words and anonymity, he collected the news of people dying without him ever having to move from his desk. The Academy found him and offered him a scholarship.

Souma (Gourmet Club Senpai) AH

Souma has a taste for rare and exquisite food. His reputation for using morbid ingredients made him unqualified as a young chef in the culinary industry. The Academy took this chance to recruit him, saying that there will be plenty of rare flesh to cook.

Wakatoshi (Delinquent Senpai) AH

Wakatoshi was protecting Izumi from being bullied due to his reputation. He accidentally killed someone in a fistfight and hence the same reputation as a murderer goes for him as for Izumi. He applied to the Academy hoping that Izumi does not have to do all of this alone.

Makoto (Basketball Captain Senpai) SK

Makoto received the scholarship due to his exceptional performance in all forms of evil: murde, assassination, manipulation, and even using his unique charisma to have people to kill for him. He plays basketball for fun and to establish friendship with fellow students.

Tokiya (Drama Club Senpai) AH

Tokiya protected someone from being killed by killing them. As a result, he was not accepted by any other school. Knowing that he cannot go back to the straight path, he decided he will protect the others by being the anti-hero.

Baa/Akira (Goat Senpai) AH

Akira uses his physical beauty to get people to do his bidding, however, it sometimes backfires to himself. Along with his weak physical ability, it made him fall into an inferior rank.

Soujiro (Calligraphy Club Senpai) O

Soujiro was an artist known for his calligraphy. In the black market, his paintings were sold by millions when made with the right amount of noble blood. He was personally invited to the academy for his family’s excellent reputation. As a young lord, it fitted to enter the prestigious Academy.

Souh (Butler Senpai) SK

As a butler, it was common to take orders without personal feelings nor remorse.  The Academy qualification was just a test for Souh to see how far he is willing to do for a future master. There is no flaw found in his technique, yet.

Touru (Student Council President) SK

For Touru, order was everything. He saw the world as something chaotic which went against his views of how the world should be. He knew that he was not strong enough just yet to get rid of the world’s impurities alone. That was the reason he applied for the Academy. His entrance score was beyond perfect. Not only did he kill the student council members, but he also killed his instructor for being lenient.

Hideki (Crammer Senpai) SK

Balancing teaching evil kids and working as a professional mercenary was hard, but Hideki managed to do both. His endurance became the reason why he was sought out to be a substitute teacher for the Academy. Not dying while being in class of murderers for years is his strong point. He likes cosplaying in his free time.

Suzuki (Idol Senpai) E

The idol Suzuki has no time for school. He had thought that maybe the Academy had the flexible timetable for him to balance being an idol and a student. He quickly passed the test when he announced he needed to kill someone to enter the Academy. Hundreds of his fans committed suicide for him.

Yamato (Rocker Senpai) E

Similar to Suzuki, Yamato also has the skills and charisma to have people die for him. His only difference was that his music style brought forth different methods. He did not announce his enrollment directly, but through his music, his fans understood his means and did it for him.

Kyouya (Sensei) former AH

Kyouya Sensei enrolled the Academy the same way Wakatoshi did. He managed to keep himself pure till the end and graduated by killing his (apparently) undead friend Viktor. He swore to protect students that encountered the same experience as him and made sure they graduate untraumatized. He applied to be a teacher to save his friend Haruka from his madness.

Takeru (Childhood Friend Senpai) AH

Takeru came to the Academy after being randomly chosen as the lucky participant. He did not know the school was notorious for their evil students. Since he got in anyway, he asked Makoto for help in making him graduate the insanely hard academy tests. Why Makoto helped him was a mystery.

Haruka (School Infirmary Senpai) former AH

Haruka had the same case as Izumi when he was in his younger days. To cope with school curriculum and demands, he used to take special lessons for students who are falling behind. His kindness resulted in denial of what he was capable of. By the end of school term, he changed. Haruka was now known as the doctor who puts all his patients in eternal sleep. His doctor title was revoked, but he still was given the right to practice in the Academy. He encourages weaker students to take his mind-numbing medicine just like what he did back then. No great student would ever dare to come to the infirmary.

Jéan (Playboy Senpai) E

Jéan’s method of killing is tinted with seduction. As one of the silent killer specialists, Jéan works best when he gets the chance to stab the person from the back or poison them after gaining their trust. His other specialties has to do with connections, especially obtaining information concerning females.

Ai (Cupid Senpai) AH

Ai’s method is slower than Jéan’s. Ai usually gains the person’s trust before breaking their heart and make them commit suicide on their own. Since his method is less efficient than Jéan, he was ranked low in class.

Hinata (Tea Ceremony Senpai) E

Hinata received an offer from the Academy for his family’s skill in poisons. Although he was a good killer, he still has a lot to learn regarding a different approach concerning killing methods as he tends to be too emotional. His family status and theory skills earn him the Enchanter rank.

Sousuke (Archery Team Senpai) SK

Sousuke received the same offer with Hinata. His skills in archery, however, brought him to a more physical-typed skill, therefore, giving him the Silent Killer rank. Often times, Hinata would work as a pair with Sousuke to make a quicker and more efficient kill.

Kei (Ninja Senpai) SK

Born in a family of silent killers, it is only natural for Kei to pursue the family’s tradition. Aside from the school demands, he also has to prove himself to be better than his graduated siblings.

Takahiro (Part Time Job Senpai) SK/E

Takahiro could instantly be an Overlord if he ever wanted to. His enthusiasm and passion brought him to start from the bottom and do the bidding instead of letting others do it for him. Sometimes, he casually ordered Souh to help him with his work, which was why the Academy placed him in a special rank which he can switch between two of the second ranks.

Katsuo (Swim Team Senpai) AH

Katsuo once let someone drown out of spite and jealousy. He regretted his decision for the rest of life. He went to the Academy hoping to graduate and to atone for his sin. Little did he know there would be so many challenges for him.

Ryuu (Villain Senpai) O

Ryuu came from a noble family. For his enrollment in the Academy, his family sacrificed a whole village in his name. Annoyed by people doing his bidding even when he did not want to or wanted to do it himself, he joined the Drama Club to practice his swordsmanship and killing abilities.

Kurou (Director Senpai) O

Kurou used the Drama Club members to do his bidding for him under the guise of art. He knew very well Ryuu wanted to be trained to kill and Tokiya wanted to be better at saving people, so he used both to kill those on his list. In the end, someone needs to give out the instructions.

Viktor (Vampire Sensei) former O

It was no surprise Viktor’s “genetic condition” lets him command an army of loyal subjects. As a student, he was once proud of his ability to create chaos and murder. He was toned down back then by Kyouya who happened to be his group partner. By the end of the term, Viktor went soft enough that Kyouya drove a stake through his heart. It does not matter much for him because a vampire must die once to unlock their true abilities. Kyouya graduated from the Academy and Viktor lives on being stronger than ever afterwards. In present time, he was called to become a teacher and role model to discuss mass murder methods and history.

Itsuki (Ghost Senpai) AH

Itsuki has a gaunt presence which leads to giving students heart attacks. His ability was credible enough to be accepted into the Academy but his unwillingness to kill granted him the lowest rank. He was personally given to Viktor to be tutored after class.

Jae (Breakdance Senpai) E

Jae teaches the necessary physical routines the students so that they can have the stamina and physical fitness they need in their line of work. Jae was once like Suzuki, specializing in distraction while the others killed them or put poison in their drinks. For Jae, collaboration in evil is as important as collaboration in good. He was one of the only teachers that encouraged group work for the students.

Seiichi (Robotics Club Senpai) SK

Seiichi was always given clean cut orders and alwas proceeds to execute them efficiently. His lack of emotions and monotone speech decrease his value and rank to a mid-rank Silent Killer. He prefers quick and clean ways when killing someone. His weapon of choice was a double shotgun or a sniper.
