[robotsafari]

does nobody like repliku…??

[death-rebirth-senshi]

KH3 was so funny for being like "actually Xehanort had noble intentions this whole time" when the dude couldn't stop chortling and cackling because he was having so much fun ruining the lives of teenagers

[valorxdrive]

@litoredeem: Sora, someone wrote "gullible" on the ceiling.

“Huh? No they didn... did....”

....

Pauses.

PUSHES HIM.

“As much as anything can happen in our lives? This is the thing ya decide to get tricky about!? Of course knew nothing was up there!”

[curiouskinetic]

@sylvctica said: ‘ that’s right. let it all out. ’

It wasn't very often that Sora allowed herself to go all out while sparring-- or even in a real fight. She was always holding back, always afraid of doing something horrific purely by accident. But Sylvie had always been different. Around them, she could be herself. She didn't have to hide.

And so the blows she landed became fiercer, she moved faster, she could bring forth the true might of her element and know, for once, it would cause no real harm.

So even though storm clouds gathered and rain soon began to fall, there was a smile on her face as she sparred with them. It truly felt amazing, to simply be herself.

"You know, at this rate, it'll only be a few hundred years before I'll be able to really spar with you." She commented, pausing for a moment.

@curiouskinetic 

              A gift for Hari! Sora scurries over and presents him with a little plush lizard she made herself! It's soft and squishy and has kinda weird looking googly eyes but it was still cute!

       Despite their involvement ( AND DUE TO HIS OWN INHIBITIONS ) he actually doesn’t receive too many gifts from Sora, prompting momentary hesitation as critical sapphire eyes analyze the gesture and object of interest. However, his stoicism decidedly softens as the plush is accepted with the utmost care to spare it from being nicked by his talons, cradled delicately between the pads of his fingertips as he tentatively squishes it... and feeling a sliver of delight at the textures present.

“... This isn’t like you....“ HARI murmurs after a moment is spent inspecting the craftsmanship, before his gaze lifts to meet Sora’s with a degree of tenderness.

       “... Did you make this yourself? It’s... cute...”

[separatethingy]

Your art has given me life and also gotten me out of art block. Thank you 😭

That is the highest honor! 🙏

I'm glad!

Have Sora learning math as congratulations!

WITH I.O.I.

Jung Sora was an I.O.I. member from 2016 to 2017, being placed at number two in the survival show Produce 101. She was the maknae, lead dancer, and a vocalist.

Coming from Cre.Ker Entertainment, her first evaluation performance was Becky G’s Shower and she was placed in rank A. Throughout the show, the lowest number she was placed was two and switched between place one and two, constantly ‘battling’ Jeon Somi for number one.

Despite being the youngest on the show, she was well loved by the public who were captivated by her Golden Girl image, dance and vocals.

RELATIONSHIPS WITH I.O.I.

NAYOUNG

SHIP NAME soyoung

One of Sora’s very first older sisters.

Sora was lowkey scared of her and avoid her because of her ‘cold’ image but Nayoung was persistent in letting her know she could rely on her because Sora was just so tiny and alone, she needed someone to look out for her. Which was what Nayoung did.

Nayoung’s always been Sora’s voice of reason, her number one protector. Sora doesn’t think there will ever be another Nayoung for her.

A popular moment between them is Nayoung gently directing Sora on how to do something, many fans talking about how patient and kind she was with her.

As of 2024, Nayoung and Sora aren’t as close as they used to be. They’re at two different points in their lives, and their bond is still there, but they’ve faded away from one another. They still check on one another, congratulate each other’s comebacks, and talk in the group-chat with the I.O.I. members.

CHUNGHA

SHIP NAME chora

If Nayoung is her protector, Chungha is her defender. She’s always on Sora’s side, honestly— her and Nayoung practically raised that girl. Chungha is always there for Sora, and somehow always knows when something is wrong, even miles apart.

Sora was at first intimidated by her, but Chungha wanted to protect her from the world immediately, and like Nayoung, didn’t give up. Their friendship is more like of younger sister teasing older sister and making trouble for her.

Sora would practice her English with Chungha, and Chungha always looked so proud whenever she spoke English. Back then, her English was not as good as it was now.

A popular moment between them is Sora being so excited to see Chungha during Sparkling and Pass the Mic promotions every day.

As of 2024, Sora and Chungha are often in contact and both always make sure to promote each other. Sora often mentions her (as well as the others) in her lives when she’s telling stories.

SEJEONG

SHIP NAME sojeong

Sora was both envious and in awe of Sejeong. She just thought she was the perfect woman. Sejeong really saw her and had to take a double take, thinking she was a really short girl until she saw her face.

Sejeong was determined to help Sora, knowing it must be hard for a young girl like her to be surrounded by everyone older.

These two didn’t get close until they started practicing for Very Very Very, Sejeong just thinking she’s the best thing. Sejeong very much fawns over her all the time. She always feeds into her antics, she can’t help it. She can’t say no.

A popular moment between them is Sejeong pinching Sora’s cheeks in 2016 and again in 2023 when Sejeong promoted Voyage and Top or Cliff during Sora’s emcee time.

As of 2024, like most members, they’re at different points in their lives and aren’t as close as they were. They talk one-on-one sometimes but it’s mostly through the group-chat.

CHAEYEON

SHIP NAME chaera

Sora was actually a fan of DIA before Produce 101, so she was really excited to meet one of her favorite idols. Until she actually met her and was so nervous she just stood there not saying anything while other trainees talked, staring at Chaeyeon when she wasn’t looking. There’s a compilation on YouTube of Sora staring at Chaeyeon during I.O.I. and Produce 101.

Chaeyeon thought she was adorable, but that was pretty much it. She didn’t exactly want to be friends with a thirteen year old. Sora was more than fine with that, though, even if she did want to be her friend at least a little. As the show went on, Chaeyeon grew to really respect her and her desire to debut.

Chaeyeon always cheered her on and would treat her like a younger sister, letting her try out makeup looks on her since that was what she was most interested in at the time besides being an idol. Chaeyeon also gave her lots of girl advice, little hacks here and there. Definitely the cool unnie.

A popular moment of them is Chaeyeon telling Sora during their last concert, “Sora-ah, never change. You’re perfect the way you are, and you’ll only get better from now. Unnie will always cheer you on from afar, okay?” before breaking down in cheers.

As of 2024, they don’t talk very much one-on-one besides for birthdays and achievements. They mostly interact through the group-chat.

PINKY / KYULKYUNG

SHIP NAME sopink

Kyulkyung tried hard to be Sora’s friend, always managing to make her laugh in tough times. It took multiple times for them to actually be friends, though, as Sora was just generally more shy around older people. Kyulkyung knew to never take it offensively as Nayoung told her.

Sora admired her bravery to express herself but was jealous of how easily it came to her. Nayoung was the reason they got as close as they ever did.

Their relationship is more of a teasing one, where Kyulkyung provokes her to get a reaction out of her. She’d always pull Sora into trouble, which in return made a habit of Sora’s for making trouble.

A popular moment is Kyulkyung teasing Sora for a crush in her school she used to have while live.

As of 2024, Kyulkyung is always in China and Sora is always everywhere else. They’re both very busy so they don’t really talk one-on-one but do interact in the group-chat.

SOHYE

SHIP NAME soso

They were both awkward with one another throughout the show, but as time went on, it got way better. Sora thought she was so funny as she was always clumsy, and Sohye thought she was a really good dancer.

They became better friends when Sora offered to help Sohye with the choreo for a song they were paired together with. Sohye was very appreciative, especially after her rank went up after the performance.

Sora didn’t have it in her to speak up against the older trainees when one may have said something bad about her, but she’d always make sure to comfort her and just give her a space to vent.

A popular moment is when Sora defending Sohye when people make jokes about her dancing, saying she’s improved a lot.

As of 2024, they only talk through the group-chat and only wish each other happy birthdays one-on-one.

YEONJUNG

SHIP NAME yeonra

Sora thought she was so fucking cool. She wanted to be her so bad. She inspired her a lot. Yeonjung thought she was the sweetest thing who could do no wrong but was quickly proved wrong when Sora showed her true colors off camera. She thought it was funny and that Sora reminded her of herself.

Yeonjung would always be by her side when the other girls were off doing something else, not even having to say anything, just standing there with her.

Yeonjung is more soft with her than anything, always babying her despite Sora’s insistence she stops. She still teases her, but it’s all in good fun.

A popular moment is Yeonjeong hitting an impressive high note and the camera panning to Sora who looked surprised and awed.

As of 2024, Sora constantly plays WJSN’s songs despite their hiatus and bugs Yeonjung for updates on a comeback while Yeonjung always teases her about ENHYPEN babying her.

YOOJUNG

SHIP NAME yoora

Cat and mouse duo. Yoojung loves to chase for Sora’s affection and to baby her, but Sora lowkey likes the chase. It makes her feel wanted.

Yoojung does everything she can to make Sora laugh, it’s a win in her book. She’d often fight with another member to have Sora sit next to her.

Sora always makes fun of the fact that she’s now taller than her, even if it’s just an inch.

A popular moment is Yoojung and Sora accidentally kissing when Yoojung tries to sneak a kiss on her cheek and Sora turns her head at the exact same time.

As of 2024, they don’t talk every day, but it’s once or twice a week. Sora is a huge Weki Meki fan, and is always willing to listen to her talk about anything. Sora always threatens to b*rn Fantiago down for her.

MINA

SHIP NAME somina

Sora thought Mina was around her age, not a 1999 liner so she was really shocked when she found out. She was so adorable she couldn’t help but think it.

Mina was really easy to get along with, so Sora easily befriended her early in the show. To Mina, Sora was like the little sister she never wanted but loved.

Sora also thinks she’s easy to make fun of, always giggling but comforting Mina when she cried.

A popular moment is when Mina’s departure from being an emcee, Sora was there and gave her a dessert and a hug.

As of 2024, Sora is very supportive of Mina (and everyone else’s!) dramas and always watches them in her free time. They still play games together in their free time, but other than that, everything is mostly in the group-chat.

DOYEON

SHIP NAME soyeon

As of 2024, they mostly talk in the group-chat or always say hi to one another when Yoojung and Sora are calling.

Sora was shaking and blushing so hard when they first met, Doyeon was so concerned. Yes, that did go viral. Sora thought Doyeon was gorgeous, but was also intimidated by it so besides the greeting, she’d turn to talk to another trainee.

Honestly, Doyeon thought Sora disliked her at first and was like “What the hell did I do for this kid to hate me?” So it was really awkward for awhile until while preparing for Whatta Man.

They discovered they had a lot in common. Some things they liked to do with one another was watch movies, specifically horror movies together.

A popular moment is Sora snuggling into Doyeon when it was cold outside and Doyeon held her close in her jacket. One of the main reasons being for their height difference.

As of 2024, Doyeon wouldn’t relent on letting Sora getting too busy for her and so they talk almost as much as Sora and Yoojung do, mostly because they live together.

SOMI

SHIP NAME sorami

Mnet portrayed the two as rivals so well that it affected their friendship. They were friends before the first episode aired, and as time went by with Mnet’s evil editing and pitting them against one another, Sora genuinely began disliking her and vice versa.

It took a heavy toll on their friendship, and as Produce 101 got closer to ending, they both grew very sickened at being pit against each other and just missed their friendship. Sora missed Somi’s weird antics, Somi missed her teasing but sweet nature.

Sora prefers to keep her friendship with Somi more laidback and fun, so she very rarely tells her any harsh problems, but she knows Somi is always there to lend an ear to and vice versa.

A big moment for them is the last episode of Produce 101, they’re waiting for the second place to be called. Sora’s name is called for second place, both girls burst into tears and turn to hug each other at the same time. Both girls just felt so much relief that it was finally over.

As of 2024, Somi is one of Sora’s closest girl friends, and vice versa. These two are constantly seen hanging out and doing TikToks together.

It was very hard for honestly all of them to disband, but especially Sora. She had nothing to go back to, the people she talked to the most at her company was male trainees that were all three years and more older than her and she was shyer around men. The other female trainees were all older than her or leaving.

Sora doesn’t like being vulnerable in front of other people, but she cried so hard during their last concert despite trying to hold it in. She’s since gotten better. They still talk in their group-chat, and Sora refers to them as her members still, despite being in ENHYPEN as well. They will always be close to her heart as they all helped shaped her into who she was.

Unfortunately, the last time Sora saw the full group altogether in person was as when they were moving out of their dorm. Sora didn’t get to attend the I.O.I. reunion due to conflicting schedules of Drunk-Dazed promotions but did face-time the group. She didn’t even get to go to I.O.I.’s Christmas dinner in 2023.

NATSUME SAKASAKI

IT HAD BEEN LONG TIME since natsume had been able to head home early first after idol practices. surprising to others, but not for the two switch members—as they knew exactly why his priorities to head home first after school. they know he was supposed to stay behind at his secret spot in the school’s library, but for some reason, he plans to always walk out first after school activities. sora and tsumugi both noticed how natsume was always in a hurry to scurry out of the academy like he was chasing after a sale’s in a grocery store

somewhere in reimei academy, a school somewhat a rival school to yumenosaki’s reputation—there stands a lovely individual named y/n. they were calm, collected, also very kind. everyone knew their name, even reaching to yumenosaki itself—it perks interest to others, and that includes natsume. it didn’t take long enough, as natsume one day announced to his unit that he was officially in a romantic relationship…with someone not from yumenosaki, but from reimei. the reactions of the two were opposite, with sora gleefully cheering ‘hooray! congratulations, master!’ out loud with his glimpse of positive expression, and tsumugi calmly congratulating their leader along with wishing the best for both of him and his significant other.

sora notices everything from the beginning. after all, the youngest member could see the small sparks of color. he would note of how his master would often screw up during practices (it wasn’t like him, and it was the first time sora ever saw the leader mess up a little badly), and sometimes space out at break time with ruby colored cheeks. natsume would even like to bring up ‘that’ name from time to time if he could when starting specific conversations. y/n, he remembers it as clear as day. after a week or so, sora asked the leader that one question he’s been longing to ask; “master, are you in love?”

the small glimpses of red mixed with a light pink glitter dusk of color floated around natsume like a wave—the vision was obvious to sora like the back of his hand. tsumugi had to scold sora whenever he would disturb the leader’s work, yet he knows what the jumpy blond was saying was true (and clear).

natsume had figured what they would react at first, however when announcing that his s/o was from reimei, it was tsumugi who let out a question first while sora just smiled. “they’re from reimei academy? you mean our rival school? and where eden studies? oh well…good luck to the both of you. y-you should be careful, though…fans are wild these days, i suggest you don’t get caught by them or else we’ll be facing a lot of trouble…” tsumugi says, looking over to natsume who had just finished reading a book. the red head shot tsumugi a perplexed look, shutting his book back into his bag. “and why is that? is it because the person i’m datiNG is just a normal student from reimei acadeMY?”

“well…” a single finger scratches across the male’s cheek, hinting an expression of nervousness, “i suppose that is the reason as well but not frankly? i’m sure natsume-kun already knows what can happen if you’re caught—

“and do you have any conclusION to why would i caRE if it did happen, tsumugi?” tsumugi’s sheepish smile disappears upon hearing his friend’s unexpected words, astonishment lingering in his feelings. sora’s mouth shaped into a curious ‘o’ as he listened into the conversation. a facepalm hit onto his face before natsume finished tidying his bag and slinging it over his shoulders, ready to head out of the library.

“it really doesn’t mattER to me…as long as they’re beside me, that’s aLL that matters..” was the last thing he muttered to his unit members before heading out of the library, leaving the two on their own. “i’ll be leaving the responsibilITY to you, tsumugi. close the library if you’re going to head home. see you two tomorROW.”

the afternoon sun shone among the grounds—whispering wind blew across the ears of others like rumors. natsume was quick to head over to reimei academy before y/n heads home. most afternoon hours after classes have ended in both academies, the two prefer to meet up somewhere quiet where less students visit in order to keep their dates private. tsumugi was not incorrect when he stated that idol fans these days are a little wilder than before—the things they do with the power of media is already strong enough to ruin one’s reputation. however in natsume’s case, he gives zero shits about what’ll happen. his personal life is his, and is supposed to not concern his fans as it is none of their business.

he had already been through troublesome times, including the renaissance of the war from last year in yumenosaki—where times in the idol course were much rougher than today. natsume wouldn’t really call his reputation ‘ruined’ today after he was claimed as an eccentric thanks to ex-fine’s works, but that was all a fabric of the past, he no longer wants to acknowledge of what is now history. even as a so-called ‘magician,’ natsume is wise of what will likely happen in the future—and that includes with his relationships. y/n, is somebody he adores and admires. his first love. they were gentle towards him, and that just made him more weak than ever.

sora was right about how the colors surrounding his atmosphere was lovely, like two birds meeting on a wire. a personification of somebody in love, the child was intelligent. till today, natsume wasn’t sure if he could still focus clearly on his daily life after deciding to work as an idol in a prestigious school. who would’ve thought an eccentric could easily find love from another academy?

at the gates of yumenosaki, a ring from natsume’s phone buzzed from the inside of his pocket. and what do you know, it was a notification from his lovely y/n. just in time, so he could ask them where they would meet up this time after classes. hurriedly opening the message, natsume was quick to read on what was written: “hey, natsu! im at the back gate of your school…! =(^.^)= sorry, i just don’t want other students to find me..”

‘they’re where now??’ natsume turns his head to where the back gate was supposed to be, and sure enough he wasted no time and ran straight there, avoiding other students who greeted him on his way. one thing about being an idol is that fame will eventually start growing one by one, from being known by a specific appearance or being known by a specific song. natsume grew to be familiar with these stereotypes as he is now an idol aching to reach for the top along with his unit. of course, he wouldn’t be so aching if it wasn’t for his lover’s help and courage…

near at the back gate where he stands, turning his head from left to right in order to see a familiar face he’d kiss. natsume did his best to avoid the gazes of the other idol students walking by him, he didn’t want to be stop by them just because his unit made it to the big stage the day before. not when his lover’s right over here somewhere, probably hiding as well. from plain sight did he spot y/n, face looking concerned as they glanced down at their phone. natsume waved at them, smiling as he did. he was happy they were here…although, there was something odd about y/n. they didn’t wave back like they always do upon seeing the switch leader, instead when they had spot their boyfriend waving towards them, y/n bashfully looks away—pretending to look lost.

it was natsume’s turn to grow puzzled. were they avoiding him? he doesn’t get it, they called him here. the clock strikes once again, now even more students were exiting outside of the building—from third years to the second years, everyone exited outside, chatting as loudly as before. natsume payed no mind to them, and nonchalant did he walk towards his lover who was ignoring his presence. they look sweaty, probably feeling nervous of how natsume began walking towards them with speed. yet, who cares? this was natsume’s business to occur after all.

the crowd paid no attention towards the two when natsume grab hold of his lover’s hand—surprising them. the familiar face of their boyfriend’s face came upon view, and y/n winces in shock. “heLLO, love…you must enjoy texting me to find yOU and ignoring me like tHAT.” natsume’s hand pulls them next to his side, ignoring how other students began to watch the two lovebirds walk away. a sheepish surprise came upon y/n’s expression when they saw natsume drag them out from the school complex like nothing had happened—they were definitely going to be a center of attention after this.

hand he holds tight, y/n hesitated to pull away, however the male did not take the signal. they knew natsume was bold in doing stuff like this out of in public, there were these times where he was a little shy…though right here at this very moment, it was as if all his confidence boosted right there, holding y/n’s hand tight in his.

“n-natsume wait…! slow down…! someone might see—

“that doesn’t matTER, now does it?”

the way y/n’s eyes shifted towards his view would forever become a core memory in his head, playing all and all over again like a broken record. the expression he wishes to see for the second time, natsume did his best to hold in an unbothered expression for his lover to see; ‘there’s nothing to worry about.’

“you’re beside me. i’m not beside the others, i’m beside you. they’re not dating me, i’m dating you. what my personal life is, is not theirs. it’s now become yours.” his hands tightened around their touch, warm and soft. his cheeks flared up, but he continues.

“it doesn’t matter whether i lose my repuTATION or not. as long as i’m with you, it’s enough for me.”

IBARA SAEGUSA

AS EXPECTED greatly of one of the biggest idol units in reimei academy, once again eden had made it to the big stage, satisfying their fans in every step they take towards the top of everything. with hiyori and jun going their own paths as always as eve, nagisa and ibara both had their own plans to dominate as adam. despite eve having more fans, adam has much more brighter ideas when it comes to taking over the whole stage platforms.

nagisa chuckles, “this wouldn’t have been easy without the help of the one and only…”

ibara saegusa

always at his excellency’s service when needed. no matter how far he is, ibara will always stay by his leader’s side. when it comes to ibara, there will always be one thing of how the other idols think of him, eden exception:

“oh saegusa-san? he’s kinda scary..he frightens me..”

“a scumbag, that’s what he is.”

“h-he can be pretty nice…! you just don’t want to…get under his skin…”

“if i hear that name one more time i will not hesitate to throw a plate and slice it clean with a kitchen knife one by one.”

the way others view him never really mattered much to ibara. of course, he has his owns ambitions and profit to care about other than nagisa’s well-being. he was even cocky to even accept if someone called him a scumbag. he knows he’s one.

however

other than nagisa, there was also one person he cares about knowing how they view him.

there’s been a rumor going on around the reimei academy campus, of an unfamiliar individual with a light shade blue of a uniform much different than theirs waiting nearby the gate. two students spotted them once, yet it seemed like the person wasn’t up into striking a conversation with them at all—in fact just sheepishly walking away, pretending like they weren’t standing near the gate from the beginning. this happened almost for a week straight—the odd encounter didn’t take long before words from others mouth began to circulate around the whole academy, even landing on the unit eden themself.

while others reaction were just collected, just highly suggesting they were merely just walking pass by their school, ibara had a much more different reaction. just the opposite of boredom, he felt refreshed and excited of whom that person may be. nagisa was complexed, however he no longer acknowledges of what his partner was doing behind the back of his head in secret.

this day, ibara heads home earlier than his other unit members, which is strange. jun would often note that ibara most of the time would spend his remaining break along with nagisa in talking about their work or plans for their unit, how they’ll be answering in interviews, idol scheduling, song recording, etc. yet this time after practice, all he did was wave his excellency a farewell and left without saying anything else. hiyori also found this strange. when the male turned to ask nagisa of why ibara was heading home early, the leader of eden just laughed, and pressed a finger on his lips, a sign of a secret.

the afternoon view was warm to gaze at, from the orange cotton candy clouds thicker than before from the grasp of a person’s fingertips to the cold touch to the skin, and the way it’s wind blew across their hair with such a level of perfection given. ibara happily hums as he heads down the street…onward yumenosaki academy.

others might think; ‘what is the ibara saegusa of eden doing walking towards his rival school? does eden have another business discussion with the school’s student council?’ yet the reasoning was way too far than that. a smile that reads chaos is what they’d describe whenever ibara would place a hand on their shoulders and ask if it was already class dismissal in the yumenosaki building, all for their choices was to say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ in order for them to stay away quickly from the male. what they didn’t know, was that ibara was just excited to see a certain someone exit out of the building.

with some small gifts in hand and a cheerful grin plastered on his face, ibara hums a small tune from his lips as he waited near the main gate—ignoring how the other students looked at him confused. it probably was rare for a reimei academy student to just come up at this school and wait by a nearby post next to a lot of students passing by, trying their best not to act like a rival right in front of him. for ibara, he just really didn’t give a fuck. what was more important right now was one of his favorite people will be heading out soon, and the male just couldn’t wait to tackle them into a large hug.

within the crowded area did ibara began to dive through his search of his lover’s familiar face—just nonchalantly ignoring the stares of other students who seemed to know him and his reputation as a member of eden or adam. his forefinger kept his glasses up on the hem of his nose, trying to avoid bumping into people who was in his way as he searches for y/n.

it didn’t take long when ibara’s lips curled up into a smile, as he finally saw their face along with the number 1 producer in the producer course; anzu, chatting lively as the two were laughing at the whereabouts of their conversation. not wasting his time, he quickly walked towards the two and pulled y/n into a hug, laughing proudly while anzu was struck with surprise. “i’ve finally found you, my love! i thought you weren’t coming out of the building yet! so, how was school? i see you’re with miss producer here, were the two of you about to do work??” ibara was excitedly bursting out a lot of random questions out of the blue, in fact he was also very loud as he spoke—even anzu wasn’t able to keep up with his questions without her stuttering.

y/n was more sheepish than ever, blushing madly as the eyes of others began to stare right at their situation with the eden member. the situation was of course, wasn’t going to stop soon unless y/n decides to shut their boyfriend’s mouth from saying anything further. taking his hand (which caused ibara to stop talking), y/n swiftly runs away with ibara to somewhere private and less seen from the other yumenosaki students surrounding them, not without sending anzu an apologetic expression before doing so. ibara too became dumbfounded soon enough after the two lovers hid at the back of the school building where no students can be seen walking around.

small coughs heard, ibara began, “y/n, what was the big deal? i was talking to miss producer, why’d you drag me out like that all of a sudden??” his obvious question swarms towards y/n. looking away, y/n sighs, before looking back at the male, “you were being a little too loud. there were still students out there watching us, y’know? i don’t want them knowing we’re dating..it would be a pain…” the tone that mixes in their voices escalates as fast in ibara’s body to react. he tilts his head, complexed of what his lover had just said, “huh? what do you mean that would be a pain?”

y/n looks away once again, bashfully this time. “it sucks…i don’t want your reputation to fall into dust just because your fans find out you’re going out with somebody like me. being a part of a big idol unit is tough already, you don’t have to go through anything like this anymo—

y/n’s sentence was cutoff short when a familiar pair of lips was landed on theirs—immediately shutting them up in an instant. the kiss wasn’t too passionate nor rough just like how ibara wanted it to be all the time when he and his lover would exchange kisses, it was just loving and reassuring. though he did push himself deeper into the kiss, letting them both lean onto the wall. when he let himself go, y/n took their time to catch their breath while ibara just smiled, still letting them hold on onto his shoulders.

“such idiotic thoughts like that could let you feel insecure around others…listen…” steadily and lovingly did ibara caress his lover’s cheek, making them look at him into the eyes. “if those creatures are my so-called ‘fans,’ then they should be supporting me no matter what, whether i do this or what if they did found out about my romantic relationship with you. his excellency and i worked hard, yes…hiyori and jun as well did, too. those those ‘fans’ would have no idea that it’s me who should feel lucky to have you. not anyone other than my partner knows about my relationship with you…because i knew you wouldn’t like it if i announced it so suddenly…” your boyfriend shifted his curled lips into a small frown.

“not only that but eden’s current idol agency is also against such announcements. it’s annoying me quite a litte, why idols can’t enjoy somethings they want to have since they’re famous. it doesn’t matter if they’re a scumbag like me or not, they need something personal for themselves as well. always being treated like a fan service object on stage for satisfaction is disgusting…” as ibara looked down on the ground, holding you hand that was on his shoulder tight, he once again smiled. “but that no longer matters now…i will conquer whatever goes in my way…just how i conquered you, my love. i don’t care if our relationship gets leaked or whatever bullshit those fans call it. if it’s between you and the unit then…”

before he could even let out an answer, y/n hugged him close, causing ibara to widen his eyes open a little. how long has it been since someone pulled him into a hug? he wasn’t sure…however he knew it had been so long.

“darling?” the new pet name caused y/n to squirm in surprise. “ahahaha…! you hugged me suddenly out of nowhere, my love! ok, c’mere you just pulled the trigger…!”ibara swiftly wrapped both his arms around y/n’s hips, before carrying them up and twirling them around from the hug, laughing so proudly out loud with a grin over his face. it was just the two of them in that area, no wonder why ibara was being so affectionate at the moment. when he was done and put y/n back down, this time a proper hug was exchanged, and ibara happily sighs.

“how rare…i’ve never had this feeling before…other than the feeling when performing with his excellency and eden. heh, you really conquered me instead, my love. i’m lucky to have someone like you.”

LEO TSUKINAGA

STEP 1 in how to not disturb leo when he’s in deep thought of composing a new song is mention his secret lover’s name in the rehearsal room if upon walking in one of his song writing scenarios. the genius just can’t help but perk his ears up like a puppy when he hears that name specifically. even if he knew y/n was studying in another school, leo just can’t help but complain.

“arghh that’s not fair! why do they have to study there instead at yumenosaki?? they could’ve joined the producer course as well so they could be knight’s one and only producer!”

“the leader is whining about y/n again..”

“oh my god not this again.”

“zzz…”

“h-hey! ritsu, don’t just sleep on the floor during practice…!”

not only are the members of knights get a little tired of hearing their leader complain of his lover not being able to study at yumenosaki but at another school, but during practice is sometimes out of the line and it frustrates them, including izumi. he knows their leader would sometimes act like a child, but it’s just the next level of annoying that gets under his skin. despite the orange head being the perfect composer in any song he dedicates and writes to, mention the name of his lover and will he stop and have an hour talk to talk conversation about them.

love is effective to not everyone, but it did affect leo when he met y/n. arashi was the main reason why the two started dating at the first place, when she told the leader that: “you like y/n-chan, don’t you~?” of course those questions would not tame leo to not bold up and say ‘yes i do.’ he was confident enough to show them his feelings, and thank to whoever god existed that y/n liked him back. soon enough, the two were officially going out, and ritsu described arashi as the main ‘cupid’ for the two. nonetheless, he was still happy for their leader’s announcement. thing was…the members of knights had to be careful in hiding the two’s relationship in order to avoid such scandals just like what was happening to kaoru—knights had already been in such scenarios before, they did not want it to happen again.

going back to it, today was more calm than usual—other than practice, there was nothing much to do for the day instead of rehearsing, dance practice, song composing and nothing else. knights was also having the same situation, once in a lifetime not being bombarded with idol work and such, ritsu thought if this was a dream come true. leo however still wouldn’t stop composing for a new song, running away from practice and hiding underneath or behind the school trees planted ahead. tsukasa had to be the responsible to look for him, even if he had no idea that his other unit members were just giving the issue of finding their leader by himself. even if it was a difficult task, tsukasa luckily found leo underneath a tree as usual, pen and papers in hand as he wrote something down.

tsukasa lets out a heavy sigh, both hands on his hip. “LEADER, please get up. we still have practice for today, y’know?” the male says, scooting close to the leader’s side as leo only ignored his presence. still no answer. tsukasa groans, “oi, stop ignoring me and let’s go…practices are about to begin soon.”

“…”

“are you listen—

suddenly, a loud ring could be heard from leo’s pocket, making tsukasa jump in surprise and fall back a little from how blaring the sound was. a smile spreads across leo’s face upon hearing the sound, jump up he did and began to gather his stuff and push all of his papers inside of his bag before running out. tsukasa looks at him, reaching an arm to stop the leader of knights, “h-hey! where are you going?! we have practice!”

“i’m heading home early! leave practice for tomorrow! i have to fetch y/n from their school as a surprise, you take care of knights for awhile! cya!” leo yells back to him, running away towards the school gate, leaving tsukasa standing near the tree.

the feeling of fresh wind blowing through the orange head’s hair felt so invigorating to his face. maybe because his current expression was a rush of excitement as he ran towards his lover’s academy, just in time did the alarm rang from his phone the second he heard the tune. the adrenaline pumps through his veins the moment he saw students rushing outside the school gate, and leo was more than happy to see the familiar face of y/n walking out along as well.

leo merely ignored the way how the other students gasped and let out squeals when leo walked by their presence, while he just continued walking straight to y/n who was busy typing something over their phone. if he wanted to surprise y/n for sure, then he’ll need to hide from behind; is what he’s thinking. crowds at this hour are taking over so it won’t be too much difficult to sneak from behind and scare his significant other, yet there’s also this one part of him who just wanted to call their name loudly in joy.

and what did he choose? well, yelling of course.

“Y/N~! OVER HERE!” the echoes of his loud call caused y/n to immediately turn their head to where it had come from and turned pale upon seeing who it was. their eyes was wide, and the phone they were holding fell down on their palm due to astonishment. realization came in second when the now sheepish y/n tried to ignore leo who was obviously calling them, yet to no avail when the male was quick to run over by their side and tackle them into a tight hug, laughing aloud. y/n stammers, anxiously looking around if there was an audience watching around, and for once they were right when they spotted a group of possibly friends looking over at the both of them.

“ahaha..! y/n, i finally found you…!”

“l-leo?? w-wait, this is not a good place to do these sorts of things…!” y/n begins to push leo away from their side, making leo contort his face into an obvious complexion. the male frowns, pouting, “hey, what’re you pulling away for?”

“just…hold on follow me there…” y/n finally managed to grasp away out of leo’s tight hug and walked away to the back, leo following happily from behind. there were still stares and murmurs everywhere as they walked, leo who was familiar with these scenarios, paid them no mind. however, y/n was being squashed by them like butter. at an area where the location was more private (and away from other students), y/n sat down on one of the benches and pats the seat next to them, signaling leo to take a seat as well. leo obliges, and hurriedly made his way there.

upon sitting down, leo was straightforward to ask, “is there anything the matter? are you alright?” but, y/n decided to stay quiet and take a sip from their juice box. leo frowns more, “hey, what’s the matter? you look gloomy unlike earlier before i called you..”

“why didn’t you tell you were coming over to fetch me?”

“i wanted to surprise you! that’s all! sorry if i did surprise you, ehe!”’

“aren’t you scared of all of this?”

leo stops talking. “huh? what is it you mean?”

“i mean…you’re a famous idol now…a leader of a famous unit and…a well-known composer for idols. if people or even worse, fans, found out we’re going out then, i…we’ll be going through something not as one, but as the both of us…” y/n quietly fiddles with their fingers, eyes darting away to avoid contact with their boyfriend who was curiously glancing at them. “i don’t wanna be a burden anymore to your problems just because i’m between your life. even if you do like me, you shouldn’t really focus on me too much…all i do is study, go to my part-time job and that’s all. you’re going to waste your time with a boring person.”

“y/n.” leo leans closer to them, and their face burned into a fury red. “i’ll get angry if you keep insulting yourself like that.” y/n winces. if there was only a few times where their boyfriend would get angry, it would be on rare occasions for good reasons, however for a simple conversation like this—y/n never expected leo to get this serious. “what do you mean a ‘boring person?’ have you ever looked behind your back and see it that way?” a glimpse of curiosity catches y/n in a moment there. “looked behind my back…?”

leo smiles, pressing a forefinger on their forehead before giving it a light flick, “everything i love about you is written all over your back. you can’t see your worth all the time, but i do. y/n, do you really think i’d care about my reputation more than i care about you?” just a simple sentence, yet why did it sound like an emotional proposal to y/n? their heart started to beat fast in their chest, eyes pricking out tiny droplet of not so visible tears. leo lovingly caresses their face, smiling with a chuckle now, “aw, c’mon, don’t look at me like that. i might kiss you, y’know? would you like me to kiss you?” his ask was straightforward, however with a nod of approval from his lover, he didn’t hesitate at all to crash their lips together in a swift moment. the kiss was filled with pride, excitement, rush and a slight taste of red bean paste from a dessert.

maybe this was ok. idol or not, as long as they’re by his side, that was all that matters to him now. nothing else, nothing more.

Garchu, Captain

A/N: A big garchu for my favorite danger mushroom! SO, I challenged myself to draw again - digital art is extremely new to me, but I guess I'll get the hang of it sooner or later. Anywho, happy birfday Trafs! ఌ

Fanart by me - more on my art blog @lunar-3scap3

Content: Mini scenario / As fluffy as Bepo's fuzzy ears / Did I insert myself right there? Yes. Yes I think I did.

"You guys . ."

Law freezes solid in place, the room he just stepped in unfolds in colourful splashes of confetti and loud cheers and party horns boom in his ears.

"Happy birthday Captain!"

The crew welcomes their aloof superior to the festivity dedicated to him. Everybody laughs and claps their hands in glee. Bepo gives the completely speechles white hat a big ol' bear hug and congratulates him wholeheartedly.

After hours of partying and socialising, Law is contemplating to either hit the hay or sink himself into studies, in attempt to rid that strange feeling emitting from his heart.

He assumes the latter to be the best of both options and makes it his task to learn every excisiting bone in the human body by heart. Again.

Blue shifts to black and the night engulfs the sea in complete darkness, and a doctor is still twirling his thumbs, hovering over every last letter of his medical papers, unable to sleep.

A soft knock against the metal door to his compartment tears him out of focus. Slowly opening it, already having an idea who he‘s about to meet at the doorframe, he sticks out his head:

"Yes?"

"May I come in?"

It‘s small little you, fluttering your lashes at him in anticipation. Oh boy. He gestures you to enter with an open arm, leading the way in. Inside his office and with the door now closed, you prepare to attack.

"Guess what I got you, Dr. Trafs!"

"How many times do I have to tell you, quit-"

"Tadaa!"

You hold out a teddy polar bear to him, giving it a tiny squeeze to prove it‘s plushness.

"Happy birthday, my favorite danger mushroom!"

"You must be joking, right?"

"No, he‘s all yours!"

Law inspects the polar bear plushie in his slender hands with highest of suspicion, the longer he stares it down, the more it‘s cuteness begins to grow on him. A shade of red slowly creeps over his face and his mouth opens, trying to speak, but only manages to bubble incoherent nonsense.

"I- don‘t know what to say. I- you-"

"Oh and I brought you this hoodie. Knew you‘d like the colour yellow, so!"

"Y-Yeah, that‘s-"

"OH and I got us tickets for the upcoming Sor-"

"(Y/n)-ya!"

He rips you out of your 'gift giving spree' by pressing your face into his chest, practically cutting off your air supply. The attempted murder forms into some sort of hug.

"Do you always have to go overboard?"

"Hmm, let me fink . . mhm, yef! I‘m obligated to do fo!"

Still pressed against his torso, your silly attest escapes you in a muffled, yet quite adorable manner. Thus you lift your head and throw a smug feline like grin at Law, to which he only responds with an exasperated groan.

"You’re such a pain, (Y/n)-ya . ."

"Oh hush, you love my pain!"

In entertainment he snorts:

"You wish."

Tangling yourself out of his stronghold, you continue where you left off.

"Anyway, I got us tickets for the upcoming Sora Con."

Law is flabbergasted and his arms shoot up to grab you by the shoulders.

"You did not?!"

"I did."

Internally screaming, the Captain barely keeps himself together, almost forgetting his manners.

"Thank you . . (Y/n)-ya."

With a subtle beckoning motion of your finger, you ask him to lean down to your level. Now his face only inches from yours, you rub your cheek against his. His raven sideburn tickling you.

"Glad you like it, Trafs."

Puzzled, Law turns to look at you.

"And what was that just now? It feels . . awkward."

"Can’t I love you in my own awkward way, Surgeon of Death? I thanked you the minken way."

"Didn’t say you couldn’t - but what are you thanking me for? You just assaulted me with presents. I don‘t under-"

Once more you snuggle up to him and . .

"Thank you - for being you. Garchu, Captain" ~ ♡

. . nibble his ear.

Error 404 - Law.exe stopped working. What a way to celebrate ones birthday.

[danganronpafan777]

Request—-> SDRA2 girlies with a basically “perfect” S/o. (Gen-neutral) Like they can learn ANYTHING in a span of a week, and are also very kind. But they have very neglectful parents who don’t care about them. Like S/o could win an Olympic medal/solve world hunger/cure cancer.. but the parents won’t care no matter what S/o does. So the gals see reader trying to make their parents proud but the Parents. Just. Don’t. Care. Also, I can imagine S/o making up excuses for them like “Nah my parents love me. They’re just busy is all! :D” (S/o is in delulu land. Bonus point if reader is getting bunt out too)

“Delulu land” lol

Setsuka Chiebukuro:

Perfect, huh? Would you mind if she put it to the test? 

Every week, Setsuka would give you another skill to master, and every week you beat her in her own game. Even with her robotic eye, she lost a round of billiards to you! 

She would tease you a bit, and ruffle your hair, but made sure that you weren't overworking yourself just to prove her wrong. After only a few weeks, Setsuka developed feelings for you 

Despite how 'perfect' you were, she loved catching you off guard. The moment you accepted her confession, she dipped you for a kiss.

She wasn't too worried about meeting your parents, planning to just be herself and work her charm. When your parents told the two of you to leave, as they were too busy, Setsuka immediately disliked them. 

"That was a bit rude, eh, N/n?"

"Don't mind them! They're glad to meet you, they’re just busy right now!"

She didn't buy it, but she calmly held your hand and led you away from them. The two of you spent the rest of the day together, and Setsuka never hesitated to congratulate you or tell you how proud she was of you after you aced her challenges from then on. 

She wasn't upfront, but would drop small hints about your parents, maybe even asking a few questions about your past with them. You didn't see the harm in it, but she was slowly making you realize the truth. It wasn't until a few weeks later, when she was walking you home from school that it all seemed to dawn on you. 

"Setsuka...my parents... Do you think they...?"

She gave your hand a squeeze, and patted your head,

"It doesn't matter what they think, N/n. You are perfect the way you are, and you shouldn't push yourself just to get their attention."

"Then what should I do..?"

Setsuka smiled back at you, 

"Nothing, just be yourself. I love you for you, N/n."

Your eyes felt watery as she pulled you into a hug, kissing you on the forehead. The two of you began to walk to her place, hand in hand, Setsuka whispering you words of reassurance every step of the way. 

When burnout hit, she set up an array of snacks and the two of you layed on her bed, the TV playing absentmindedly in the background. She played with your hair as you laid your head on her chest

Even if you didn't have your parents support, you had hers all the way. And you always will.

Yoruko Kabuya:

Yoruko didn't believe you were perfect in the slightest. It was impossible for someone the be perfect at everything, right?

She was glad you didn't take offense to her skepticism, even taking it as a challenge. She had to hide how impressed she was every time you mastered a skill she had never even heard of, not noticing how she was already falling for you 

She was a tsundere around you for months, but you patiently waited for her to confess on her own, accepting her confession with a smug grin on your face. Yoruko couldn't decide if she wanted to lightly smack your face away or kiss that grin off your face

She was fairly nervous about meeting your parents, wearing casual clothing that didn't reveal too much, and little makeup for a change. You and Sora advised her to just be herself, so that was what she planned to do. 

But when your parents paid neither of you any state of mind, she was immediately annoyed. She didn't want to complain since they were still your parents, but she put a lot of effort into looking good in front of them! The least they can do is look at the two of you

Yoruko felt... disturbed at how unbothered about it you were. Did they always ignore you like this? She couldn't let you lie to yourself like this,

"Y/n, no... it's wrong for them to ignore you like this. You're...amazing. You deserve better parents than them."

You were a bit caught off guard by her praise, and Yoruko tried to hide her blush. 

"W-What!? Hey, I can compliment my S/o!"

You laughed a bit. It was a while before her words really started to sink in, but she didn't leave your side. She was fairly mad when she realized that you were burning yourself out for those people, so she sat you down on the couch and made you a drink. 

Yoruko didn't complain when you snuggled up to her, hiding her red face in your shoulder. 

Emma Magorobi:

She was skeptical of your ability to be perfect at everything you did, but she never told you 

However, as you skillfully did her makeup, acted out a skit with her, and happily commented on her movies with a critic's detail, she couldn't help but be impressed. You definitely had a unique charm to you, and dare she say, you were quite good at making puns

You and Emma became close friends fast, but it was months before the two of you officially got together. By that time, you already had a fan base and became a popular ship with Emma among her fans

She was slightly nervous about meeting your parents, but as the ultimate actress, she hid it well. Emma put on her best casual clothes and spent an hour on her makeup, just for your parents to not bat an eye towards either of you

She was confused, slightly offended on both of your parts, and hurt for your sake. She asked if you were alright, but you brushed it off, saying they were just busy

You were lying to yourself. Not only that, but you were acting. 

It was like her own father all over again, only talking to her to demand money or use her as an ashtray. Emma started to shake a bit. She needed to get both of you away from here.

"Emma? Where are you taking me?"

"Y/n...those people... They don't care. They don't care about... anything."

You asked her what she was talking about. When the two of you were in the privacy of your own home, she slowly became undone. Emma told you of her past, and her biological father,

"They're liars, Y/n...They make you lie to yourself...they make you act...like everything's fine."

Slowly, she showed you her arms, wincing when you grimaced. As tears rolled down both of your cheeks, staining her makeup, the two of you held each other and made a promise,

That no matter what, the two of you would love each other just the way you were

Hibiki Otonokoji:

Perfect? Yeah, right! 

She didn't believe it, and no matter how good you sang, she insisted that she was better

With a smile, you agreed, and complimented her on her voice, making a strawberry blush spread across her face. 

The two of you performed duets together, and as much as she denied it, she felt herself falling for you. As much as she tried to hide her feelings, you could easily tell. 

She'll never admit how happy she was when you accepted her confession, and she bragged about you every chance she got.

Hibiki acted like she didn't mind meeting your parents, as she was a famous singer! What could they not like about her? 

She was terrified, but did everything she could to hide it. You smiled, putting your arm around her and introduced her.

Only to be met with annoyance, as your parents asked you to leave them alone. Hibiki was appalled and offended, 

"Hey! Don't ignore Y/n! She's your daughter!"

She scoffed when you told her that they loved you, but we're just busy. Hibiki was blunt about what she thought of your parents, and how rude they were,

"What a bunch of lowlifes! They don't deserve you, N/n!"

She was stubborn, and denied any excuse you came up with. She wouldn't let up, and it became a full blown argument between the two of you. Out of anger, you remarked that she treated Kanade worse, but still claimed to love her. 

Hibiki told you off, saying your parents never even claimed to love you in the first place. It wasn't until you were crying that she felt terrible, and realized she may have went too far...

"W-Wait..! I-I'm sorry...! I didn't mean..-"

"No...you're right. I was stupid not to see it..."

"Th-That's not true! You didn't do anything wrong, N/n!"

With tears in her own eyes, she tried to comfort you, and offered to leave or give you space. Hibiki wouldn't stop apologizing, and as much as she wanted to beg you to forgive her, you weren't in a state of mind to make a choice like that. Right now, you just needed someone. 

She held you as you cried, letting you sob into her shoulder. Hibiki cried to muffle the sounds of her own cries, but it didn't work, and the two of you just held each other, trying to comfort the other

The realization was difficult, but Hibiki no longer hesitated to tell you how much she loved you. Even if you didn't have your parents' support, she was rooting for you

Kokoro Mitsume:

Perfect? That's not possible, no human being is perfect.

Even when you mastered every ability and skill she could think of in a span of a few months, she didn't believe it. You definitely interested her.

She evaluated your emotions and your movements. Your mind was quick and calculated.. with a need to prove yourself. Kokoro couldn't bring herself away, not even noticing her own feelings towards you.

You had no idea how Kokoro felt about you, given how distant she usually was, so it was a while before the two of you got together, and even then, no one noticed you were dating until you told them. 

She wasn't worried about meeting your parents, as she was skilled at knowing what people wanted her to say. Your mind always showed a positive view of your parents, so she wasn't expecting for them to be so neglectful.

Perhaps that's where your drive to prove yourself had started... how long had they been this way?

You were in complete denial, so Kokoro had to ask you for herself. You didn't know why she looked so concerned. They were just busy, like she usually was!

She felt a stab of an unknown emotion at those words. 

"I...I don't mean to be like them. I'm proud of you, Y/n." Kokoro had a small, comforting smile on her face. You didn't really understand what she said, but you were happy she was showing more emotion! 

Slowly, Kokoro would help you realize the truth. She recognizes the symptoms of burnout easily, so the two of you watch movies on her IPad together. She slowly places her hand on top of yours, a rare display of affection from her. 

"Y/n... you don't have to lie to yourself anymore. I'm here. I'll always make time for you."

You held her hand, laying your head on her shoulder as the tears started to flow. Kokoro didn't judge, giving your hand a gentle squeeze.

Kanade Otonokoji:

It disturbed her a bit that just like her, you were perfect. It was her first time meeting someone that even held a match to her raw talent.

She wouldn't drop her facade, but that didn't stop her from slowly falling to you, losing her obsession over her sister.

Someone just like her... so you had to feel the same way as she did, right? 

When you accepted her confession, the two of you were the perfect lovebirds of your class. There was just no way your parents wouldn't like you two!

Your parent's indifference towards you definitely caught her off guard. She could understand if they treated you normally, since she was treated the same as Hibiki despite being better in every way, but they're seriously ignoring you?? Ha...well, perhaps she could make use out of it.

She could tell you were in denial about it before you even said anything, so slowly but surely, she asked you about your relationship with your parents, picking apart your arguments one by one. Kanade had to give your parents some credit, they manipulated you pretty damn well, as tearing down their lies took way longer than she expected, but in less than a month, you were faced with the cold, hard, truth.

"Kanade...you really think...my parents..."

"Y/n, darling... I'm proud of you, and I love you with all of my heart. I wouldn't be saying this if I wasn't concerned."

Her words kept you up at night, making you restless, wanting to do better... and where did that land you? Right back into Kanade's arms. 

She gently ran her fingers through your hair, sweetly pampering you for the day, as you were too burnt out to do anything. Too burnt out to even see the news report about the gruesome death of both of your parents.

As you snuggled up to her, Kanade's smile grew wider, and she softly whispered in your ear,

"Y/n... you really are perfect to me...fufufu~"

Iroha Nijue:

She didn't really believe it at first, but when you painted a picture even better than her, she was completely dumbfounded.

How were you so good at everything!? Were you born like that?

She was jealous at first, but couldn't resist falling for your kindness and genuine desire to help her, her heart beating out of her chest when you guided her brush along the canvas.

When you accepted her shy confession, she was over the moon. Iroha was extremely clingy, and would happily brag about you whenever she could, but nearly fainted at the idea of meeting your parents. 

She thought about creating a painting for them, but nothing she made ever seemed good enough to give them, especially compared to your art skills. The best she could do was take a deep breath and put on her neatest outfit.

Iroha expected the same from your parents, or at least something similar, but neither of them paid her any mind. Not just her, but they acted like you didn't exist!

"Y-Y/n...why are your parents ignoring us!?"

She thought it was something she did, but you kept assuring her that they loved you and were glad to see her, they were just busy. Iroha may be stupid, but she recognized those thoughts.

She spent many nights drawing, beat up in her basement, alone with nothing but those thoughts. Thoughts of being the best just so your parents would finally be proud of you...

You freaked out when you realized your girlfriend was crying, and you immediately took her to your room and held her.

"Hey...Iroha, it's okay..."

"...No...Y/n..." Iroha wiped her eyes, shaking her head, "G-Get away from them...please..."

"Them? You mean my parents?"

Iroha didn't talk about her life before Utsuro very often, but this was an exception. She told you everything, and how she recognized that pattern of behavior and the thoughts that followed. Everything she said...was so vivid to you... She knew exactly how you felt...

After all those years, it finally occurred to you that your parents truly didn't care. And it hurt.

It hurt so bad that you could only sob with your girlfriend, the two of you clinging to each other for dear life. Everything felt like a lie, but there was one thing you knew for certain.

You were never letting Iroha go.

Sora:

She was thoroughly impressed by your ability to be perfect in nearly everything you did

It felt....vaguely familiar...

Still, Sora fell for you pretty quickly, after all, what was there not to like? You were the shining star of the class, helping everyone in need and looking out for her

She was expecting you to reject her, since she didn't even know her own talent, but you accepted with a smile that made her heart pound. As the relationship went on, she was getting more impressed by you, and your ability to accomplish anything you set your mind to!

She was pretty curious about you, and she couldn't be happier as your girlfriend! Sora appreciated how the two of you tried different hobbies, searching for Sora's potential talent, and while the results proved nothing, the two of you only got closer

She was definitely nervous and worried about meeting your parents, given how ordinary she was compared to you, but she still decided to give it her best shot

What she didn't expect was for your own parents to brush you off, and completely ignore the two of you. Sora can't remember anything about her own parents, or even people she grew up with, but something about this struck a cord...

"Hey. HEY!" She tried to yell, but you calmly shushed her, reassuring her that your parents were glad she met you and that you had a girlfriend. 

It felt like you were reassuring yourself the most. That didn't stop her from scolding your parents the moment you were out of sight. She didn't want to push her boundaries, but couldn't you see what they were like!?

Sora kept you away from your parents as much as possible, reminding you how proud she was of you. The moment she noticed that you were burning yourself out, she pulled you in for a hug.

"Y/n... your parents... They aren't good people. You shouldn't work so hard just to impress them. Come with me, we'll take a break."

As you drifted to sleep in her arms, you couldn't stop thinking about what she had said. No matter how many times you told her that your parents really did love you, you'd only be met with a sad look.

Could she have been right...?

You held her tighter. No matter what your parents thought, you knew that you'd always have her.

Can I have how sora would react to having a big fight with his crush? It's canon that Sora is a very kind and gentle soul and loves his friends, and even looks for them even when they don't want to be found. So how would he try to make up with them if they get really mad after the fight and refuse to talk to him or even be around him? And how would riku react to seeing sora go through all this and help him out?

Our sweetheart, Sora... Seeing my first KH request after my hiatus has reminded me of the imminent Kingdom Hearts 4 and the mobile game coming out and all that exciting stuff. Can't wait!

Sora making up with his crush after a fight HCs

I can't imagine what someone would want to fight with Sora about just because of how much of a sweetheart he is. The only thing I can see being a point of contention is perhaps his self-sacrifical nature and tendency to throw himself at danger without really...telling people?

And, as someone who presumably likes him back, his crush can't be too happy with seeing him come back from worlds positively battered and bruised without any warning. It's a conflicting situation to be in for sure. This self-sacrifical nature comes from his love for other people which his crush loves, but it makes loving him hard and sort of scary. What if one day he doesn't come back?

His crush had always been there for him to patch his wounds and congratulate him as a wonderful person and a great warrior - hence why he loves them so much - so finding that, one day, they've just decided to avoid him is kind of scary for Sora.

He's unaware of what he's done wrong at first because his duty comes first, to use the power he's been so graciously given to protect people is his number one priority despite his feelings. *They couldn't be mad at that!*

It definitely takes someone giving Sora the same case scenario for him to realise the effect he's had. A lot of Sora's friends experience the same sort of thing since everyone close to them is often in some sort of danger or another. And, of course, Riku is ever the observant one in the trio of islanders...

Riku proposes the same idea to Sora: *How would you feel if the person you loved the most suddenly disappeared without ever telling you?* It takes a moment for Sora to realise the darker implications of Riku's words and the gravity of the situation settles in.

Immediately, Sora takesaction and makes it his mission to find out wherever his crush had been hiding all this time away from him.

It takes some chasing - they are actively avoiding him, after all - and it takes even longer for his crush to finally relent and give in to talk to him. They're trying to protect themself from having their heart broken...but, finally seeing the errors of his ways, Sora argues differently.

Very in touch with the hearts of others, Sora knows that his crush isn't happy being separated from him for so long. While he might not recognise the reason just yet, not thinking he's lucky enough to have his feelings returned, Sora admits his mistake and promises to be a far better friend than he has been. He'll hold their hand and tell them that they get to know everything about what adventures he's going to go on, that this is his duty not just a choice. If he won't do it, who will?

For those too lazy to find the A3X GitHub repo and from there the archived forum thread that spawned it, here's some of my personal favorite moments.

Oh my god, I'm considered a noob in these parts and even I know you're an idiot.

Why do you keep referring to the Virtual Console? AFAIK, they work exactly like any other emulator internally.

I don't think you understand how intensive a "megahertz" is.

And now I sit down with a glass of fine wine in front of a fire to read this thread.

Congratulations, you just defined "program" Well, for programs without conditional branching.

Sora reminds me of physics lectures I went to that started off "Assume a horse running on a racetrack is a block of uniform density sliding along a frictionless surface…"

Presumably it's a Hebrew idiom that just doesn't translate into English very well.

What math operation does PUSH represent?

Guys, guys….I think we're getting off track here. Don't you all realise that it's all about TEH MATHZ?

I think his interesting idea is that bsnes should be implemented as a system of linear equations, rather than as an imperative sequence of instructions, and that will make it as fast as ZSNES. I'll give him credit, I've never heard that particular proposal before.

Excuse me, sir, I find this image HIGHLY OFFENSIVE! I think I speak for everybody present when I say that we use SQUARE pixels around these parts - maybe 8:7 at the very most - but none of this 1:2 rubbish!

This thread shall now be about pixel aspect ratio. Anyone else in the 16:10 camp? 😉

PEOPLE HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR DECADES PEOPLE HAVE BEATEN IT TO DEATH OVER THEIR ENTIRE CAREER

pages = (rage function(miscommunication) * (concepts covered + (number of trolls * peanut gallery + 1)^0.65))^trolling potential * scale constant

Ah, now we're getting on to artificial intelligence. Because that's what it would take to perfectly identify what is code and what is data with zero interaction whatsoever.

Very OT, but, I suddenly want to make a game for the asspull.

Mednafen needs a motherboard file. This discussion is moot.

Hard to believe that all happened almost ten years ago.

Puzz, while doing work and art practices i've been listening to frankie and bugs entire kh vods ( im up to 358/2) and i've been obsessed with org 13, what do you think Nobody's version's of your oc's would look like ?

congratulations on becoming a VIDEO WARRIOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as for Nobodies I imagine they'd look much the same - I don't remember how much they get into it during/before 358 but if I'm remembering my Lore correctly the implication is that Most* Nobodies look fairly similar if not identical to how they did in life, ie. Ansem and Xemnas looking pretty darn similar to each other

*as usual Sora's whole Deal is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Welcome to the first ever Would They Eat A Rat? Tierlist, documented by Sora! It's a slow day today and she has nothing better to do, and so created a list of some friends based around the question of: would they eat a rat?

Sora (me): "Starting with myself I actually have to admit that I've never eaten a rat before. Weird right? I'm open to trying it though if I get the opportunity."

Morax (@orecrowned): "I don't think he eats them now but I'm like, 99% sure he's eaten a rat in the past. And if he hasn't I could get him to eat one in five minutes."

Childe (@narvvhal): "Ayaks will see a rat and go "is anyone gonna eat that?" and then not wait for an answer."

Tem (@snowtombedstar): "I think she would eat a rat. Probably has eaten one already actually. Might even eat one that's just been frozen like, on a stick or something."

Ren (@erabundus): Sora is silent for a few moments, staring at the page where she'd written his name down. Then she very carefully writes out the word NO in big bold letters and underlines it a few times.

Chongyun (@mmriesoftvat): "I don't think he has and I don't think they will on their own, but I might be able to peer pressure him into eating a rat."

Nanashi (@starscrxssed): "Nanashi has probably eaten a rat before, like at least once. He likes fish a lot more though so it was most likely a one time thing."

Sylvie (@sylvctica): "Sylvie has probably eaten a bunch of rats. Would make something weird out of them though like.. like a rat burger or something."

Tonia (@abyssmalice): "She would only eat a rat if it was entirely made out of cotton candy or something. Or maybe a cake... a rat cake."

Rex Lapis (aka:dad) (@lapisdex): "I'm willing to bet he's eaten a rat in the past but not anytime in the last like, two thousand years. Probably."

Tomo (@visionkept): She isn't too sure about this one, actually. Cautiously writes down "yes?" in her notebook. Needs further study to validate.

That's all she's able to focus on for the time being, congratulations to all the people that have been dubbed rat eaters by Sora! And to those who hadn't, she'll get you next time!

So apparently the official KH Twitter posted artwork of Sora in Quadratum watching as every single advertising screen shows Sephiroth to congratulate Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s team on the launch.

I’m assuming it’s just a promotional image but you know, given THIS TEAM, if they decided to tie the canons together so they collapse in on themselves in a Metanarrative Bullshit Event Horizon that consumes us all, it wouldn’t even surprise me by now.

Hello~ I hope you're doing well~ Can I get kanade otonokoji and Setsuka chiebukuro dating headcanons~

Just like with the other general dating headcanons, this takes place in a non despair au. My rules dictate that Kanade is always a yandere no matter how peaceful the rest of the world is so this falls under yandere danganronpa for her.

For the sake of those who don't want to read yandere content I'll flip the order so Setsuka is on top and Kanade is on the bottom.

TW: Kanade Otonokoji

Setsuka Chiebukuro and Kanade Otonokoji dating headcanons

Considering Setsuka is her class' big sis who promotes unity in the class, they would be the first people she informs about her getting into a relationship which will earn a wave of congratulations from the class with all of them being happy for their defacto leader getting together with someone.

Get ready to be a frequent subject of Setsuka's jokes and pranks, she doesn't pull anything on you with malicious intent nor are her pranks with you anything like what she did with the girls in A Woman's Fantasy, they're all good light-hearted fun which at most will spook you a little. She readily encourages you to try and get back at her as she enjoys the challenge and little prank wars are great ways to have quality time together which is her love language.

For dates, Setsuka doesn't have any particular preference so long as you two get some quality one on one time together. She loves being the big sis of her class, she was the one who assigned herself the role afterall, but for dates she would rather they not be around. She would love to have Sora, Shinji and Hibiki help her prepare for a date but during the date itself it's just you and her. If she did have to list a preference she prefers dates that have you two actively doing something together like playing a game or going hiking together over movie dates or generally more passive dates.

Prior to you two dating, Setsuka definitely showed you her Devil's Eye. It's a major sore spot for her and she would never date someone prior to informing them about the true nature of her right eye as not only would there be the risk of you reacting poorly much like the kids at her school did but also if she can't trust you with her right eye then how could she ever date you? Romantic relationships are built on love and trust and if she didn't tell you about her childhood operation by a quack doctor then that means she didn't trust you enough.

There is no need to worry about jealousy from Setsuka, out of all the SDRA2 cast she's the one who will never get jealous. She is an extremely physically affectionate person and her extroverted personality makes her want to spend time with loads of different people so she won't take any issue to you doing similar. At most she would tease you about showing affection to other people, jokingly asking things like "No affection for your girlfriend?" but it's always playful and never serious.

Your confession where you professed your feelings for her was the happiest day of her life. Kanade had meticulously planned the past few months for you to reciprocate her feelings, she had held off on doing anything traumatizing to you yet as she couldn't risk you seeking another for comfort so stuck to more minor sabotage to prop up her image in your eyes while using her shy persona to still be approachable to you. When you two finally start dating, no one is made aware of it for a day as Kanade wants to savor her victory for herself but she eventually tells Hibiki who spreads the news to everyone that you and her are an item now.

To you, Kanade is the perfect girlfriend. She's cute, she's popular, she's talented, she's open-minded to activities outside of her band, she's a caring sister who is always by her sister's side even when they disagree, she comforts you after a student you were close to mysteriously disappears- Now that you have made the decision to date her, Kanade can go about ensuring your relationship is permanent.

Dates with Kanade are pretty much your wish is her command. She is gifted at essentially everything so if you want to have a karaoke date? She'll sing with you and let you pick every song. Date at the movies? She'll pick out the best seats for you two and get your favorite popcorn and soda. It may be a bit concerning to you how much Kanade is willing to let you be the decider for everything but Kanade honestly doesn't mind, if you do mind and want her to pick something based on her preferences she'll be overjoyed though may not be entirely honest about what she actually likes depending on how squeamish or sensitive to loud sounds you are.

Your relationship with Hibiki is a bit of a doozy. Kanade wants you to be friends with Hibiki but she doesn't let you get too close. Whenever you question it, she spouts excuses about how jealous she is that Hibiki gets more attention again, essentially guilt tripping you to back off.

Unlike with Hibiki and a childhood friend reader, Kanade wouldn't always want you to be in a puppet state like Hibiki. The idea is appealing to her but the puppet state is essentially her way of having her loved one to herself without any fear of someone taking them away so if the mysterious disappearances and deaths she cause leave you emotionally vulnerable enough that you solely rely on her, she may let you keep your sanity depending on how accepting you are of what she's done to Hibiki. If you lash out, even just out of shock, you can kiss your sanity goodbye. If you remain composed and don't do anything to provoke her, she'll let you keep your mind if only because she enjoys seeing you emote as her sister's expression is quite dull in the puppet state.

Kanade's jealousy is 10 to the power of 1000, she gets jealous over you spending time with anyone and everyone save for Hibiki and as stated earlier, she doesn't appreciate you getting too close to her either. Kanade is someone willing to torture and kill over you smiling at another person so unless you actively isolate yourself from people outside of the Otonokoji twins, expect to set off her jealousy during your relationship at even the most innocent of interactions. The only real bright side to her jealousy is that due to the image she needs to maintain, she won't ever actually truly express the full extent of her jealousy in your presence, she's usually only appearing mildly upset though can get extremely scary if you have a close friend.
