#I'm sorry its so long

[loveinamystery]

I'm sick so you know what that means?

Another episode of...

✨️ Yohna moments I often think about ✨️

Moving another thread across to here and it is a Yohna one you lucky sausages. It is a long post, I'll apologise now.

Let's talk about this scene from the 2001 anime

Spoiler for main series and some elements of Flowers

This was a non manga scene added to the 2001 series. I honestly believe that this scene was added in replacement of the moment Anna asked to stay with Yoh the night before he lives for America.

I believe that the 2001 production team wanted to give Yoh and Anna a scene alone before he left for America. Something to show them acting like a couple. To show that actually they do care for each other. But it had to be done in the most Yoh and Anna way.

Now, Yoh and Anna are a very private couple. Everything happens behind closed doors. Yoh and Anna are not about big declarations of love or PDA. Be it Takei's choice to portray them like this, or his refusal to write full on romance we will not speak on it . So this scene had to be very 'them'.

I mean, I pray for the day we finally get some flashbacks of baby Hana in Middle East. I will not shut up about it. I just want to see them FIGHT TOGETHER. Or just working together as a team because I NEED IT. Just let them be a cute married couple please.

GIVE ME THE YOHNA SPIN OFF TAKEI! I KNOW ANNA IS ONE OF YOUR FAVS. STOP DENYING YOURSELF. BRING HER BACK.

*ahem*

Anyway, back to the scene.

The lead up to this scene is pretty interesting. During school, Manta picks up that Anna has been acting weird.

It amazed me that Yoh did not notice her acting a little off. But, to be fair to Yoh, he has been training very hard and is super tired. The gang had recently been to China to rescue Ren, so our boy must be pretty exhausted, and more than likely falling a sleep in classes.

But omg, he is so clueless. Please help this man.

I mean, either Yoh is so distracted with other stuff, or he doesn't think Anna would be affected by his departure. They lived so long apart back in Izumo so why would this be any different?

I believe that having now lived with each other, their relationship had changed and they are now closer. They act more like a couple. I'm pretty sure by now they have had their first kiss and spoke about their feelings for each other.

Please also offer some thoughts on clueless Yoh 🙏

That is until....

Manta outright tells the gang that he is sad that they will all be leaving.

Yoh, Horohoro and Ryu have been acting like it is nothing, and just a part of their lives. Ryu does tell Manta that they do feel sad but they are dealing with it in their own way.

I think this is where the realisation clicks in Yoh's head that actually, Anna could be feeling the same. That she is sad too, but showing it in her own way. Maybe she did want to spend time together that evening? But I don't think Anna would ever meaningfully get in the way of Yoh seeing his friends. She knows how important they are to Yoh.

Wanna take a walk with me?

Yoh might have been sitting on this idea since the meal out with the guys, and he waited till the last moment to ask Anna to go for a walk.

I think this shows how nervous Yoh is about exploring his feelings with Anna, because who goes out for a walk just before they go to bed? When they are already in their nightwear?

I think that, in the 2001 anime, the emotions are there, but they are teenagers figuring out their feelings for each other and how to express themselves. I'm a romantic, sorry

BUT LOOK AT THE BABIES!!!

Yoh is always a reassurance for Anna. She pushes him to become the best person he can become, and Yoh is always there to reassure and support Anna. They just work together so well. They are a team.

On their late night walk, they talk about normal stuff such as the Patch Village, the SK fight, Anna of course tells Yoh that he better not lose.

But I think there is more to be said about what they don't say, or hidden meanings.

This moment here

I tell you, I can hear the brain clogs ticking in that little Asakura head.

After seeing Anna is cold, Yoh presents her with a warm drink.

We know Anna is always ordering Yoh around, but she never asked him go and get her a drink. Is it one of the first times in the show we see Yoh just do something for Anna without her asking or ordering him to do so.

YOHNA BIG BRAIN THEORY MOMENT 🧠

I struggle to word this but I will try. I feel like Anna is trying to keep her true feelings unwraps (as usual), but this time she is doing it to Yoh.

Anna is cold and is seen as trying to keep herself warm. She doesn't ask for help. She doesn't tell Yoh that she is cold. It is her issue and she will deal with it on her own.

Now let's apply that to her emotions.

Anna has grown close to Yoh and is now sad that he is going to America. There is a chance that she might not see him again, but she just carries on as usual. She doesn't tell Yoh she is sad or express it. She knows Yoh has to focus, and it is his duty to progress in the Shaman Fights.

Yoh and Anna are often said to have an 'unspoken communication', and this was one of those turning points as a couple.

I feel like they became stronger after this. And look, I know the scene could be classed as non-cannon as it didn't happen in the manga but its here and I'm going to talk about it!

ITS WARM!

Like his love for her! 😭😭😭

I read too much romance guys. I'm too loved up. I'm sorry I'm like this.

BUT LOOK AT HIS FACE!!!

Tell me this boy isn't in love!

Tell me he isn't thinking how actually, he is pretty lucky to have someone like Anna.

And really, no matter what they are about to face, everything will work out.

I don't know man. I love the addition of this scene in the 2001 version. Likely one of my favourites, along with a selection of others.

I'll go back into my hiding hole now. That was longer than I thought it would be, and it you made it to the end, well done 😌

[momentary-ecstasy]

Saffi prompt: first time Seven meets Gabe.

The impending implosion of FreeCloud could wholly be attributed to a lack of care with municipal utilities and maintenance. The money on FreeCloud went straight to corporations and individuals instead of expanding services for the ever growing population on an already overpopulated planet. A chained explosion of reactors was imminent and the more Starfleet dug into the problem at the request of a bewildered Chairman who didn’t actually live in FreeCloud, the more it became clear that outdated technology, undertrained technicians, and general neglect were a problem too far gone even for the best scientists and engineers in Starfleet. 

As with most ships in the area, the Titan had been requisitioned to move refugees from FreeCloud to a neighboring planet a few systems away. 

Seven moved through the lower decks inspecting the new quarters for the people being relocated. The hallway bunks that the ensigns slept in were cleared out of personal effects and were being sterilized for the refugees coming aboard. There wasn’t time for a refit of anything so they were making due with what they had. The entire crew on the ship with the exception of the bridge crew were sharing quarters on the upper decks and sleeping in shifts. 

In a show of camaraderie with her fellow shipmates, Seven had given up her personal quarters for the duration and was sharing a double room that had two beds with five other officers who slept in shifts as well. She couldn’t complain so far. Her sleep shift roommate was quiet and kept to himself. He didn’t snore and kept his belongings confined to his bed. 

Her comm badge chirped, signaling one final meeting before they arrived at FreeCloud.

She met with the rest of the bridge crew in the ready room and took her place next to Shaw. Shaw didn’t stand up and gestured to the screen facing the table. “We’ll be getting a briefing from the mission commander. Then we’ll be providing security while the first wave of ships takes on refugees.”

Seven wasn’t sure why she was surprised that the mission commander was Raffi. She had moved millions of Romulans before the supernova with a laser precision against political backlash and red tape in every direction. She watched Raffi give a very concise briefing to all the crews about the order of ships to take on refugees. Apparently she had already been on the ground in FreeCloud for a week organizing relocation efforts before the ships arrived. 

The report painted a grim picture of the wealthy leaving the planet to burn while the workers and poorer of the planet were left to the mess the pleasure and entertainment centers of the galaxy had created. 

For the briefest moment, the most selfish part of Seven wondered if Raffi could see her on screen. If she could pick her out of the probably hundreds of tiny faces on the screen. Seven wondered if she even cared to. 

Seven was brought back to the briefing as Raffi’s face changed from professional neutrality to professional neutrality with a hint of worry. Something most people wouldn’t be able to pick out. “There are a few different factions trying to use this emergency as a cover for smuggling or assassination of rivals. We need to be vigilant.” She nodded to herself and everyone else before her attention was taken for a brief moment. “Send me whatever questions you have. I’ll send out the order of ships to enter orbit. Engineering is estimating detonation in five days and the plan is to have this planet barren in four. Good luck everyone. Stay safe.” Then the screen went black.

“You heard her,” Shaw stayed in his seat. “We’ve been assigned perimeter security. Go start scans and map out a perimeter.” The bridge crew all started to leave. He reached out a hand and said, “Hang back, Seven.”

Seven sat back down and waited for the room to clear. Then looked at Shaw. 

“Is that going to be a problem?” he asked, pointing to the screen where Raffi had been. 

It took Seven a moment to register what he asked and then a moment to be offended. Then she answered, “Was it when we were saving Starfleet from the Changlings?” 

“Fair point,” he nodded. Then added, “How is the morale in the lower decks?”

“Everyone is ready to help,” Seven got past the personal question he had asked and moved into XO mode, “They can survive in close quarters for a week.”

He nodded thoughtfully. “I think the addition of several thousand refugees will make tensions rise.” He took a deep breath. “I’ll send a memo to the rest of the crew to remember their plight and attempt to remain sympathetic. I hope I can count on you to help monitor the situation.”

Seven nodded. “Of course.”

He sat in silence again as he sometimes did, thinking on the situation at hand. Seven was getting good at knowing when he wanted her to go and when he wanted her to stay and currently, he wanted her right where she was. 

“Have you read the briefing?” he asked, though he knew the answer. 

She nodded. “Several times.”

He finally started moving out of his thoughtful sitting position and hit his Comm badge, calling his Security Officer into the ready room. He wanted to go over the dangers of this mission and he wanted Seven’s opinions and for them both to instruct the Security Officer together.

*sigh* thoughts on Nintendo's botw/totk timeline shenanigans and tomfoolery?

tbh. my maybe-unpopular opinion is that the timeline is only important when a game's place on the timeline seriously informs the way their narrative progresses. the problem is that before botw we almost NEVER got games where it didn't matter. it matters for skyward sword because it's the beginning, and it matters for tp/ww/alttp (and their respective sequels) because the choices the hero of time makes explicitly inform the narrative of those games in one way or another. it matters which timeline we're in for those games because these cycles we're seeing are close enough to oot's cycle that they're still feeling the effects of his choices. botw, however, takes place at minimum 10 thousand years after oot, so its place on the timeline actually functionally means nothing. botw is completely divorced from the hero of time & his story, so what he does is a nonissue in the context of botw link and zelda's story. thus, which timeline botw happens in is a nonissue. honestly I kind of liked the idea that it happened in all of them. i think there's a cool idea of inevitability that can be played with there. but the point is that the timeline exists to enhance and fill in the lore of games that need it, and botw/totk don't really need it because the devs finally realized they could make a game without the hero of time in it.
