365 DAYS OF PAPER AIRPLANES

July 31, 2014 ✰ Masterlist & Playlist

Koki did not think that he could count on two hands anymore, how many pictures they had taken that day.

A trip to Kyoto had always been lingering in everyone's mind, but only continuously got pushed back as exams season flooded their schedule.

The contentment of their last visit was drowned out nearly entirely by the burdens that naturally came with assassination attempts. Now that summer allowed them the taste of the carefree breeze, they were going to cherish it.

This would truly be their vacation to enjoy.

"Mimura, Sugaya...!"

He turned at the sound of his name as Rio held up her camera. The taller boy put an arm around Koki's shoulder and flashed a smile. A moment captured so briefly, but he planned to keep it sealed within the folds of his album forever.

Rio pulled the camera down, smiling fondly at the picture through the viewfinder. But right after, she shifted her gaze up, scrunching her eyebrows.

"I just realized.. we haven't properly taken a group photo yet," she noted.

Despite the countless snapshots that flooded their gallery, there had not been a single group picture on their camera aside from their shaky attempt at taking a selfie.

Ryuunosuke tilted his head as if in thought, turning to observe the bustling crowds that scuttled around them. He walked over to a nearby tourist, gesturing to his friends while he spoke.

"Excuse me, can you take a picture of us?" He asked in English.

And so they gathered, arms linked and smiles blooming. The blue sky canopied the village, and the stone pathways littered with leaves astray. Most notably, the melodic wind chimes that swung inches above their heads. They dwindled into one scene, a coruscating picture that enveloped them.

A click of the camera's shutter, the moment in its blissful state marked.

If enough ppl like this i’ll continue it it’s kinda old tho ☠️

(karma pov)

It was a normal day, koro sensei was dodging all of our assassination attempts. I was sitting in the back of the class paying attention to what Koro sensei was saying about early morning assassination attempts.

"Now, what have I said about using other students as bait for assassination attempts" Koro sensei scolded to the class.

He kept babbling on until Karasuma suddenly opened the door. Karasuma walked in followed by some unknown girl.

"This is Athena, she will be your new classmate so please be kind" Karasuma stated.

She then bowed her head and said hello. I had to admit she was really pretty, but there was something about her I didn't like.

(athena's pov)

I had arrived at the school 30 minutes prior, but I had not anticipated there would be a mountain to climb just to get to class. The mountain itself was beautiful though. The breeze hit the leaves on the trees and made a slight rustling noise. The glints of sun you could see through the leaves which left warmth on your skin. It truly was a beautiful place. The schoolhouse itself was made of wood and a little run down, but looked very cozy. When I walked through the hallways I could hear the deep sound of my school shoes hitting the wood, and the small creaks that came with each step. The moment I set foot into the classroom I could feel how light the aura was. After the introduction I said a quick hello and headed to where I was told to sit. I had been seated next to a seemingly nice girl. From her appearances I quickly deduced she was Rio Nakamura. Class went on as it would in any other class, but I felt a few weird stares from the people around me. Specifically, Karma Akabane, he was staring quite a bit, and I was a bit uncomfortable. From what others have said, he's violent and rude, and I should stay away from him. After a lot of teaching, the time for lunch finally came. I was going to read a book quietly, however, I saw Karma walking up to my desk.

"Hey new girl, you haven't said anything all day. You shy?" He teased.

"No I'm not, I just don't have anything to say." I replied.

(karma's pov)

Her response was cold, something about her was threatening. I don't like this, I don't like her.

(athena's pov)

He 100% hates me. I wonder if I sounded rude, he was rude, I was just returning the energy.

Blush Meter Meme because I like it when men ✨blush✨

Takaoka be joking off until blush gets reeeal bad and that makes him annoyed. Why? Because ya don't deserve his blush, so he bangs his head through the wall just so no one sees it

Karasuma doesn't show his blush till the end, just makes it look like he's reeeally annoyed and angry(he actually is), and when he just can't hide it he's very. VERY embarrassed and blushes even more because of that

A SPECIAL TREAT FOR MY WEAK BUT NEEDY HEART AND @namaaaes HEART AS WELL

[sonic-adventure-3]

personally i’ve never really been into making crossovers or aus myself but theres this one really specific crossover i’ve been thinking about since the day i got into sonic and i just don’t know how to make it work. idk how to segue but i need korosensei from assassination classroom to meet sonic and especially shadow

[vietcrepes]

what is this, injury city?

he winced at the burning sensation of alcohol on his injuries. you'd think he'd be used to it by now, but he was far too focused on other things. namely, you. his heart was racing faster than he'd ever admit and he couldn't bare to look you in the eye. if you inched any closer he swore his brain wouldn't be able to handle it, his body tensed in a prayer that he wouldn't embarrass himself. your fingers grazed his cheek, assessing the damage, and he hoped you were ignoring the crimson dawning his face.

the close proximity was enough on it's own, but your touch on his skin and your attentive eye had sent his entire body aflame. by the time you pulled away to get some miscellaneous supply he couldn't care less about, he had felt his heart drop to his stomach and his hands become clammy.

"so how'd you get injured?" your query was met with silence, as his expression shifted in sour distaste for the situation that landed him these injuries.

"fine, you don't have to tell me" and as you reached to cup his face again, he swore he would spend the rest of his life with you. he felt himself melt into your touch, after all, when would the two of you be in such close proximity again?

୨୧ TYLER HERNANDEZ, ben clark, aiden clark, LOGAN FIELDS (sbg); LUKA, BLADE, aventurine (hsr); IZUKU MIDORIYA, shoto todoroki, any hero if you squint hard enough (mha); mondo owada, fuyuhiko kuzuryu, nagito komaeda (danganronpa), karma akabane (ooc) (assclass); your faves <3

writers note: I ❤ this scenario specifically, I intended this to suit more characters but it ended up being too ooc for most of them 😓 even karma is a huge stretch I fear + the ending is super abrupt but I was never good at ending my writing </3

[heyhellohihowareyou]

Hello! Just wanted to say hi & hope you’re having a good day. When I saw your Icon & few of your posts, it ignited some nostalgia since Assassination Classroom was one of my favorite animes growing up. Heck I just watched it yesterday. If you don’t mind me asking, what’s your character in Assclass. Also since you’re into Twist, too. I like to hear what’s your favorite character from there too. Currently, I’m still getting through the story in Book 4. Hope you have a lovely day~ ^_^

Hello Hello! Glad I could Ignite some nostalgia in you!

And to answer your questions, my favorite character (Or rather characters) from Assassination Classroom are Isogai and Maehara. It started off as just Isogai but I grew to love Maehara a lot more and now I’d put them at the same level.

As for Twisted, it’s kind of a similar scenario but not really. Technically speaking, my favorite character is Spade since I enjoy him as a character the most, but I like Ace’s aesthetic and personality the most (for some reason) Basically they’re both my favorites I would say.

Anyways, hope you’re also having a good day and I hope you’re enjoying your TWST experience so far and continue to!

Christmas scenarios :D

I'm sorry for disappearing againnn, I'll write some assclass hcs for Christmas later. (maybe)

anyways that's for all the following :D

Enjoy!~

I'm so sorry this is so rushed and half-assed T-T I've been busy studying (loving Asian parents)

(I'm so sorry my updating schedule is so inconsistent)

------------------------------

Nakamura-

For Christmas, yall probably just hung out with Karma or with the rest of group 2. Played pranks on people and just had a ton of fun, probably watched Christmas movies with group 2 :D

Hayami-

Probably spent the whole day with her and her cats, just watching cartoons and whatever shows y'all were into. Maybe bakes some Christmas treats for both your parents and had a really nice time in general :D

Hazama-

Time for my (one of them) favorite thing, HORROR MOVIES!! But Christmas themed!! Since Hazama loves horror, you guys would probably watch Christmas horror movies

Kaede-

Probably ate a lot of pudding and you invited her to celebrate with your family, probably went out on last-minute Christmas shopping in the morning, playing in the snow (during Christmas it's winter and showing in Japan)

Okuda-

Mostly did the same as Kayano's scenario but y'all watched some nice Christmas movies and made cookies. Probably dropped by Karma's to say happy bday to him, and spent some time with families together.

Kataoka-

Probably some last-minute Christmas shopping having lunch at a fancy(ish) restaurant and spending the rest of the day together with family?? Idk Kataoka's family would probably invite you and your family over to her place to celebrate as one big group of ppl.

Yada-

Definitely go out to cute date places and photo booths to do Christmas-related activities like Christmas-themed photos and etc. Just kinda hung out w/ each other and had fun. Made some Christmas cookies together and they tasted nice <3

Kurahashi-

Made little homes for all her little animals for winter to make sure they don't get too cold and to make sure they stay warm :D

She taught you a lot about her animals during that time, ate some snacks, and played Christmas songs/ in the background. Had a really nice dinner and just had a nice time together.

Okano-

Definitely pranked her brothers, took you on a really nice picnic in a spot behind the class 3e building near a lake, all the food was made by the both of you the day before, celebrated on your own and went to Karma's to wish him a hbd and stayed around for some cake (by Hara) and just to screw around w/ the rest of the class :)

Kanzaki-

Invited you and your family over to celebrate, played a ton of Christmas-themed or just any video games together, (probably played crimson snow if u know that ur my friend), and watched movies. (she seems like the type to watch the saw series). Ate some sweets and snacks and stayed over at her place.

Fuwa- (my wife :0)

Watched a lot of anime (no surprise), and her family invited yours over to celebrate together, the both of you just went to her room to watch anime, ate some snacks, and went out to play in the snow and fool around with the rest of class 3e for Karma's bday. Probably made you cosplay with her (probably one-piece characters with Santa hats and other Christmas stuff)

----------------------------------

lol im sorry it's so bad but if you have any requests please just DM me I'll be happy to do them (I'm fine with NSFW and SFW)

[no-naem]

I love the reincarnation trope. And the isekai trope.

I've thought about scenarios where people from the "real" world die and reincarnate into the AssClass universe, whether as existing characters or OCs. Also, I think of my old neglected OCs for these scenarios, so there aren’t any self-inserts (...mostly).

- I have one AU centered around these tropes. It's called Die Displaced and has Nagisa and Fuwa as our unlucky reincarnated people. Nagisa's past self has never watched AssClass while Fuwa's has. Both of them don’t remember much about their previous lives, but Fuwa remembers enough to recall the series and knows what they used to do. Fuwa is also unsure if she should tell Nagisa spoilers or let him experience his life, completely aware that he is gonna go through even more shit later on. Should they dare change the script in hopes of a happier ending?  (There’s also been strange moments in their lives where they can’t recall what they’ve been doing the previous day...)

- A scenario where an avid fan of the series reincarnate into Ritsu. Now she's the one on the screen.

- Imagine if everyone in Class E except for the teachers and the RGB trio are reincarnated people. Chaos ensues as some of the students who are acquainted with the series try to turn this into a fix-it, (very) canon divergent AU. (Also, imagine if not everyone 1: is aware their classmates are reincarnated and 2: read/watched assclass. And so they think their classmates’ odd behaviors is because they live in a very anime-like world. Like, why is Fuwa breaking the 4th wall constantly??? Is she just doing that because she’s a weeb??? Could it be that they’re all actually...fake???? ......nah.)

- A situation in which someone reincarnates as one of the bad guys of the series, but they only remember their past life after their arc is over. Maybe a redemption theme?

- There is an OC who is a big fan of assclass and reincarnates as an OC. But they don't remember until Korosensei's reveal to the entire world, and seeing the Spear of Heaven firing onto the E building triggers their past memories. I can imagine them getting pretty depressed from missing out on meeting Korosensei, especially when they know that they could have met him since they're a student of Kunugigaoka. Now they have to deal with everything post-assclass.

[pillow-anime-talk]

i love girls month ; nineteenth day.

synopsis: You worked a bit longer in school than Irina, and when the young English teacher started teaching in the 3-E class, you immediately got in touch; both as teachers and young, ambitious persons. As time passed, you got close enough that you started spending time in the city together every week – usually in bars, at noisy parties, and in various restaurants. That evening it was like that as well.

# tags: scenario; friendship; adult!reader & teacher!reader; karaoke!au; alcohol; is koro-sensei following us?; comedy; fluff; sfw

“Cause you’re hot then you’re cold, you’re yes then you’re no, you’re in then you’re out, you’re up then you’re down...!” You sang out loud, smiling happily, though your eyesight seemed a little hazy.

“You’re wrong when it’s right, it’s black and it’s white! We fight, we break up, we kiss, we make up!” Immediately after you, Irina laughed, hitting the beat perfectly so you both could score a lot of points.

It was another Friday in a row and you could relax with a few sweet drinks, salty snacks and of course a karaoke microphone. Meanwhile, you talked about your students, your work, potential victims, and even your families, your financial or heart problems. It was your time and you wanted to make the best of it.

After finishing another funky song, you both sat on the soft leather couch and reached for your drinks; you your mojito, your friend her margarita.

“I love weekends. All for me, yummy.” You tilted your head back contentedly as you took a sip of the alcoholic drink again. The pleasant aftertaste of mint and lime filled your mouth and you licked your upper lip with your tongue. “We must go somewhere longer during the holidays. I would like to see Hawaii or Morocco.” You added with a smile, and the blonde woman nodded.

“Or Greece!”

“Yes, or Greece.” You dreamed of the warm sun, sandy beaches and beautiful views from the balcony.

You talked for a short while until you heard a knock on your private karaoke room. Of course, you invited the person on the other side of the door, hoping it was free drinks or some warm appetizer. Unfortunately, instead, you saw a very familiar – though at the moment somewhat disguised as a woman – face.

Immediately your own faces became serious, but also puzzled a little bit.

“I brought some desserts for you two~.” You heard Koro-Sensei’s slightly squeaky voice (or rather the waitress lady who was holding two cups on a black tray filled with ice cream, fruit and whipped cream).

You and Irina looked at each other and then you smiled at the yellow octopus.

“Thank you very much.” The blonde one said for the two of you, and you nodded your head, also thanking for a tasty looking dessert.

‘Ah shit, here we go again...’ You were thinking at the same time, remembering Koro-Sensei’s previous and numerous visits in every possible disguise; salesman in a manga shop, a bartender in a club, a personal trainer in a yoga class, and a taxi driver.

But well... at least you got free desserts.

(It's nice to discover more active assclass blogs these days! Welcome back!)

Could I request some Karmanami for “Ooh, the weather is nice today.” ? Since it is one of your comfort pairings!

OMGG yes ofc I love them a lot<3 tysm!!

Karma and Okuda┊"Ooh, the weather is nice today."

It had become habitual for Karma to tag along with Okuda once the school bell signals the end of the day. They didn't need to exchange any words; it was a mutual understanding for the two of them to fall into the daily customs. He simply trudged over to her desk, bag slung over his shoulder, as he waited for her to pack up the rest of her belongings.

"I'm so sorry, Karma. Give me a second," she said, frantically gathering all the worksheets laid on her desk. Even as she flipped through the papers in her hectic state, she made sure to stack them orderly before carefully sliding them into her bag.

"You don't have to apologise," he replied, chuckling. But he admired that particular aspect of hers, always wary of how others would feel in any circumstances.

She looked up and gave him a smile. "Thanks for waiting."

They headed down the path that winded the mountain, leading away from the school. Beams of the fluorescent sunlight glistened upon the dirt trail, baking it to a warm shade of orange. The sky was a bright blue vast of vividness, brilliantly dazzling and hopeful. Towering trees that canopied the road gleamed beneath the sun in all its magnificence, its leaves bursting in lush colours.

"Ooh, the weather is nice today!" Okuda commented, her head shifted up to face the sky and trees that loomed above them.

"Right? It's such a beautiful day that it makes me not want to waste it." Karma looked over at her, his lips quirking slightly. "Should we hang out?"

Okuda's face lit up instantly into a smile. Karma could not help but beam, a small tingle creeping into his cheeks. He loved seeing her smile blossoming, never failing to express when she was overcome with excitement, and her eyes illuminating with a rosy glint.

But her expression quickly turned into disappointment, her face washing over with realisation. "There's a lot of homework I have to work on today," she sighed. "And I want to study as well, for the entrance exams. I'm really sorry, I wish I could."

He nodded, but could not hide his solemn expression. It was an effect that Okuda had on him. When they were together, he felt trusted, safe to release whatever burdens he had attempted to barricade. No matter how vulnerable he'd be, Okuda never judged. His futile endeavours may beat him up until he was left with only a weak fragment of himself, but Okuda would still stay. There was no such thing as weakness, only emotions to be valued. "That's alright. Let's take our sweet time walking home then."

Okuda laughed. "Thanks for understanding, Karma."

They walked in silence, the silhouttes of birds transcending swiftly in the sky as they flew their way back home, just like the students were. Okuda spoke up again. "To be honest, I'm more than anxious for the entrance exams. I'm trying my best to study as much as I could."

"Is there anything in particular you're worried about?" Karma tilted his head. The traces of enthusiasm on Okuda were now replaced with an apprehensive look.

"I don't know... all of a sudden, the confidence that I'd built up are all gone. It's harder to trust myself because I'm not good enough and my hope is dwindling, then there's the pressure of the assassination and..." she paused, taking in a deep breath.

Karma slid his hand into Okuda's. A subtle gesture that was not foreign to the two. He relished the comfort, appreciative that she also shared the trust to lay bare her vulnerabilities to him.

"You're working hard, Manami."

Okuda looked into his eyes, and although hers still brimmed with worries and doubt she was now smiling.

"It's hard for you to see yourself the way I do, but you have to trust me. You trust me, right? Then trust me that you're amazing and that makes me confident that you'll do well."

"I trust you, Karma." Okuda squeezed his hand.

[bismuthwisdom]

What's this I hear about the Asanos actually being brothers and pretending to be father and son? If you've got some interesting ideas, spill 'em! (I can already sense the angst)

oh god what have I sparked now

I actually didn't think too much about it, I just found it a "haha funny" what if scenario.

But now that you mention it, I find it an interesting concept to explore tbh.

How they got into this mess is the question. And also if Gakushuu is aware of that or not. For the sake of angst, let's make him not be aware of it. :)

If we go by what is most likely canon, I can see that the parents had died not long after Shuu was born so Gakuhou would take him in since back then he still wasn't like his current self. They pretty much behaved like father and son, although he wanted to disclose their actual relations when he was old enough. And of course the day never really came as he broke down at that point. After that it didn't really matter to him.

Another story possibility is that he actually took him in when he broke down. He wanted to have someone he can personally teach to become strong and ofc his younger brother was the perfect candidate for that. His parents were quite old at that point and, unaware of his intentions, let him take care of him. Then he manipulated him so much to the point that he believed his actual mother died. The lack of pictures could be explained by Gakuhou's coldness and rationality after breaking down, so Shuu didn't question if further.

Funnily enough, that would make that one scene where the principal mentions the baldness on Gakushuu's mother's side all the more hilarious. He practically dissed himself too, but ofc Gakushuu wouldn't know that.

Also, I believe it would make their uncanny resemblence make more sense since they share both parents and are likely to end up looking a lot similar.

--

Going a bit out of canon possibilities, I could apply this to my fan interpretation as well. I made the Asano family be like a giant cult and Gakuhou someone who managed to escape. Through an accident, he would be able to save his brother as well. To cover up this up, he would lie that this is his son and not rise suspicion.

That's basically all I have for now, if you want more or want to add-on feel free to do so!

Favorite places to get food

Group 1

Call them basic but they really love cafes. Whether it’s a homely, cozy family-based one or a new trendy one with hipster deserts, they definitely prefer the vibes. Also half of them need their tea/caffeine fix lol, and Kurahashi’s sweet tooth must be satisfied. If they go to the one Isogai works at, they also appreciate the discount they get...

Group 2

Street vendors! They overall like eating and having food on the go. It’s more fun enjoying a meal together while having a conversation and walking. Also there’s a very large range of diverse food options that can definitely suit all their particular tastes. Plus they get to take cute and aesthetic pics with their food.

Group 3

Matsuraiken of course! Lol that’s where they go for food 90% of the time. Even if the ramen is bad...the side dishes and other stuff he can make is great. Overall, I see this group preferring the vibes of restaurants or fast food places more. Also I like the idea of them trying out different ramen places but still always going back to Matsuraiken.

Group 4

This group basically lives at the convenience store lmaoooo. They’re always there, either after school or in the mornings, the weekend, etc. It’s a combination of things: Karma’s need for strawberry milk, Kayano’s pudding, Kanzaki’s gamer snacks...and more. They always go together and still have lots of fun. Sugino has to make everyone eat an actual meal though haha.

Who's the most likely (in E-class) to become a Yandere?

I know the most likely answer would be Karma but I think that Itona or Takebayashi would become the E-3 yanderes. 

Itona for sure would be the kind of yandere that would stalker his lover at first and then be the kind of creep that watches them sleep at night and steal items like their panties or old clothes. He wouldn’t be afraid to hurt them either. Once he’s got them in the basement of his house (which would be cold and like a cage) he would condition them through pain and treats as he gets his lover normalized to this kind of relationship. He would go through many technological measures to make sure they never got away from him, he can’t bare letting someone else he loves leave him like his parents did. 

Takebayashi is the kind of yandere that’s cold and calculating. He would be fine with watching from afar and “protecting” you like a good lover. He would have no qualms over being the shadow that killed all his rivals for your attention or anyone who opposed you. He’d probably even kill the teachers who gave you a bad mark or the merchants who scammed you out of your money. He’d never show himself to you but at times you can feel someone’s eyes on you and it’s unnerving. If you ever found his room/hideout, you’ll find all of the illicit photos he’s taken of you as well as notebooks full of research on you, from basic things like your home and likes and dislikes to the more specific things such as your past relationships and current and former friends.

Can we get a reader whose birthday is the day the E class must kill Koro-sensei and its the birthday of the reader and he’s pls?

Of course! ~ admin dad))

This sucked.

This genuinely, truly, completely sucked. ___, a student of class E, were expected to kill their teacher for the greater good. This wasn’t fair. But life wasn’t fair. “Yuma Isogai.” “Here.” Tears rolled down ___’s cheeks and onto koro-sensei’s body. Why did it have to end so soon?

Right now it didn’t matter, what mattered was keeping a firm grip koro-sensei insisted on. ___ had a tight hold on one of his tentacles, insisting that Nagisa be the one to kill him. “Taisei Yoshida.” “Here.”

Soon the initial pain would be over, and koro-sensei would be at peace. You would all get to return to your families, for better or worse. One day the pain would pass and you’ll have the happy memories he gave you.

“____ ____.” He called.

“Here.” ___ croaked. And suddenly it was over.
