VER VERMILLION •

such a soft boy oh my god. he’d confess in the early spring when all the flowers are blooming and the trees are blowing so gently in the warm breeze. the soul prophet would be hiding his face just a little behind his asymmetrical hair. his rose colored eyes shone with nervousness as he quietly whispers his love for you as the flowers he had picked for you fell on the ground and swirled around with the breeze. the flowers only fell on the ground because you didn’t have any room for them when your arms were wrapped around his neck, hands combing through his beautiful hair as you gave him the most gentle kiss. his lips were soft against yours as his eyes narrowed in pure happiness. ver’s pale face was dusted with blush as you walked hand in hand with the student counsel president.

MELOCO KYORAN •

she has a tendency to push herself really hard for the benefit of other students. you’d become concerned for her well-being and visit her at her house to find her sitting on the ground with other people’s homework surrounding her as she looked like she was about to cry from stress. you decided to help her with the things she needed to get done, and she eventually fell asleep on your shoulder. her dark hair was tousled and splayed around her face and deep purple hoodie. meloco’s confession would be sleepy and you had doubted it at first, but she said it again the next day just to confirm that she really did have feelings for you and had since you met. her cheeks were the same bright pink color as her eyes when she had confessed her love for you, earning her a gentle kiss on either blushing cheek.

HEX HAYWIRE •

traditional love letter all the way. hex would at first be conflicted on wether or not he was to express his feelings at all, but he decided it would be better to express it than to keep it secret. he’d leave the letter on your desk during your lunch when you were gone to get something. it was folded so delicately that you had to debate wether or not to open it at all. on the paper was hex’s pretty, yet slightly messy handwriting. the letter was so beautifully written, detailing the ways you were beautiful in his eyes, which was ultimately everything about you. his confession of love is the most beautiful, with the letter illuminating his feelings for you down to the smallest detail. it ended with a simple “i love you.” right above his signature, with a small heart drawn next to it.

KOTOKA TORAHIME •

she confesses spontaneously. the two of you would just be hanging out after school and randomly deciding to go to the beach. it was a late summer day, the intermediary between summer and autumn where the days are hot but the nights are as cold as ice. especially when on the beach, the cold and salty air fluttering around you and kotoka as the both of you play in the sand amidst the ever so gently crashing waves. it would be quick, nearly lost in the moment entirely. just a quiet “i love you so much oh my god!” that disappears in the sound of the crashing waves. she knew you heard it from the way you looked at her with an indecipherable expression on your face. not a moment later, she knew you felt the exact same by the kiss you gave her, wrapping your arms around her curvy frame and planting a gentle kiss right on her forehead, then both her cheeks, then her soft lips.

DOPPIO DROPSCYTHE •

he would confess in winter, when the both of you were walking around a shopping district together. he cautioned you to be careful because he didn’t want you to get a cold, and initially you thought nothing of it. he just wanted you healthy, that’s all. yet as the sun finished its descent under the horizon and the night became bitterly cold, accompanied by dark clouds covering the stars, doppio wrapped his jacket around you and bought you a warm drink. the way his normally pale face was flushed on his nose and cheeks from cold was oddly cute to you as the two of you walked. you offered to share your drink with him and he denied it, obviously flustered. the district was nearly empty, most people having gone home in the wake of the bitter cold. powdery snow started to fall so gently from the sky, causing a smile to appear on your face as you danced around in it, doppio right by your side. it eventually devolved to slow dancing in the snow, with you remarking that you wouldn’t leave him until you freeze. he leaned in a little, a small smirk on his flushed face. when he said the three words you had been waiting for for god knows how long, the distance between you and him was closed in response.

Notes I've taken from the first three bsd novels... brainrot included

Entrance Exam:

Dazai is a terrible driver

Kunikida is scared of ghosts

Kunikida actually makes lots of references to Christianity. From the direct quote "Let there be light" when using a flashlight to "There is no difference between myself and them. Are we not all born on the same planet, only to ultimately return to the eternal heavens together in death? O divine creator, answer me." (I say Christianity because I know for a fact that the first quote is directly in the bible)

Karen Dazai

Dark Era:

Dazai is repeatedly noted as appearing younger than he is or compared to a child by Oda

This novel really helped me understand Dazai's relationship with suicide better. The way I read it, it seems like it's not about dying but almost dying to him, similiar to the dopamine rush of skydiving or mountain climbing. This lines up with the fact that he always makes dumb mistakes that fail the attempt, something that would be out of character if it were accidental mistakes.

I love Oda's narration. A bit dry and blunt. Very fitting for his story.

Untold Origins:

Naomi's suggestions for the entrance exam all being [redacted]. Also her characterization in this novel was great. Really helped me understand how the author intended her be written in a way that wasn't as transparent in the manga or anime.

Dazai says "methinks"

Kid Ranpo's voice is compared to a chicken

He also seems to have terribly hand-cut hair

Fukuzawa plays by the rules of the secretary's maze of papers, Ranpo does NOT

Oh my god Oda my boyyyyy

I noted that he is vengeful even in his assassin days

Also kinda funny how Oda's youngest appearance in the series and one of his oldest appearances in the series are both in scenes with Ranpo. I wonder if Ranpo knew...

The fact that Oda talks down about V killing for justice is very ironic.

Also, V being after a skill-less world is very similiar to the whole Fyodor Dostoyevsky thing

Natsume owed a debt to Ranpo's father

Throughout the novel, Fukuzawa notes how bad he would be at being a leader or in power. Ironic.

He also didn't know he was a skill user until after starting the agency haha. An interesting world building question is how many people have abilities that they just never know?

Ranpo autism moments:

Not eating the mochi

Getting confused over if he was using the word granted right ("You can’t take connections like this for granted… Wait. Taken for ‘granite’? ‘Granted’? Uh…”)

Immediately calling Fukuzawa's business card and saying “Please help me, Mr. Bodyguard, sir. I don’t have a job, and I’ve got no place to stay tonight. I’m going to die.”

Fukuzawa can hear him doing this over the phone and across the cafe

Actually the phone call is a bit desperate.. this entire meeting has been a bit desperate on Ranpo's part. It feels like he is trying to reach out to Fukuzawa and practically begging for help. The most interesting thing about the phone call is that it is the most honest Ranpo is about his emotions and motives in the entire meeting, and yet, he has his back to Fukuzawa the entire call. And when he gets what he wants - when he is accepted - he turns around with a big grin.

Psychoanalyzing Egawa and being confused as to why she gets mad

You have to be exact in what you ask with him or he WILL NOT know what you're really asking

My babyyy adults get mad when he speaks the truth cuz he's smart and blunt

"What's a skill user" sweetie it's the middle of a play

Ranpo NO TALKING in the middle of THE PLAY

RANPO NO

RANPO

RANPOOOOO

He's very physically expressive

He is often portrayed as more cool and collected by fanon, but this scene of the play, although it takes place when he is younger, really shows the depths of his emotions. He is confused. He is agitated. He is angry and scared. He doesn't know how to deal with his emotions and he doesn't know how to ask for help. And he has a breakdown at a really really dumb annoyance because it tips him over the edge. Probably one of my favorite scenes for his characterization.

And Fukuzawa doesn't invalidate his feelings.

His parents raised him so well. I would live an au where they didn't die and were able to bring him up the way they planned to. I think that would be fascinating to see how Ranpo would turn out.

Ranpo doesn't look down on others cuz his mother taught him not to.

Fukuzawa dad moments:

Says he'll feed this kid he doesn't know later if he keeps talking

Tempted to tell everyone in the restaurant that the kid just followed him there

“Hear that? Those are the wails of the mochi you left behind”

Tempted to say he's only thirty two when Ranpo calls him old

Ranpo basically adopted him as his dad

"Three times, Fukuzawa told Ranpo to quiet down as he whined for candy. Twice, Ranpo wore down Fukuzawa’s patience until he caved. Three times, Ranpo asked Fukuzawa why planes could fly. Four times, Fukuzawa convinced Ranpo to keep walking when he complained his legs were tired. Four times, Fukuzawa carried Ranpo on his back."

Keeps imagining ways to leave Ranpo

When Fukuzawa lashes out, Ranpo is legitimately stunned, even shaking for a while afterwards

Using a chi attack to make Ranpo think the glasses did something lmao

Fukuzawa chewing out Ranpo for the whole plan

[fluff-writing]

Mulling over Inarius's whole plot in D4. I think it's even more pathetic than the game shows.

See-

Inarius seems to think the Heavens are watching him and judging his actions. He thinks he's appeasing them somehow, and trying to earn his way into their good graces. (Why he wants to go back to Heaven at all is anyone's guess. They'd probably just throw him into the Fist without thinking twice. Or kill him. Or both.)

Whether Lilith believes the angels are truly watching or not, she goads Inarius by using their apparent 'silence' on the matter. He takes it well! Starts talking at Heaven/the Souls of the Damned/whatever voice is in his head at the moment.

Here's the thing;

I don't think the Heavens have one damned idea what's going on with Sanctuary right now. I'd be amazed if any of the angels even knew Inarius wasn't in Hell. He's not exactly their problem or responsibility anymore, and hasn't been for a while; as far as they're concerned, his Fate is in Hell, with Mephisto.

The past has shown that the Heavens are not omniscient, not when it comes to Sanctuary or Hell. The nephalem aren't in the Scroll of Fate, and frankly, neither is Inarius anymore. They couldn't even find Sanctuary until enough demons got summoned to it, and even then it took a while for Tyrael himself to find it. They had no idea about Malthael faffing about for years down there, instead believing he was out in Pandemonium maybe. No one kept tabs on Urzael or any of the maidens that were sent after him. They didn't know about Tyrael's Shenanigans until they got very big and very worldstone-boomy.

How would they even know what Inarius is doing? I'd be amazed if any of them knew who Rathma was, let alone the significance of Inarius murdering him.

And after all that, it was only Tyrael himself acting as a go-between for Heaven and Sanctuary, informing the angels about what was going on. None of the Horadrim mention any other angels hanging around, or visiting Heaven to drop off newspapers. There is no link between Heaven and Sanctuary, not without Tyrael.

Speaking of Tyrael - did he and Inarius ever connect up? I wonder when exactly he disappeared. It's after Donan and Elias became part of the Horadrim, but before Elias left. Was it after Astaroth? Cuz Inarius was definitely around for that (he helped build Eldhaime.)

Methinks they might have had confrontation. Hell, maybe Tyrael is the one who brought him back somehow. Prolly not, but it'd be nice of him.

Anywhoozle, point is the Heavens aren't likely to know a rogue angel is mucking around down on Sanctuary, again. Why would they even care? The humans are not their problem. Inarius is not their problem.

I think they locked the Gates to Heaven, and are tuning reality out. Fate, Hope and Valor have turned their backs on Sanctuary after all.

Unless we're saying Inarius got free from Hell, went to Heaven first, got told to fuck off, and came back to Sanctuary for some reason. Somehow, I don't see that happening.

We know he's delusional too. Sin War, D4, he's delusional as fuck. Convinces himself he's in control when everyone from Mendeln to Diablo is manipulating him, convinces himself Tyrael + the Angels hadn't found Sanctuary (as they literally invade through a hole in the sky), convinces himself the prophecy is about himself. I could see him genuinely believing he's undergoing some sort of divine trial at the behest of the Angiris Council. Maybe he thinks Rathma's prophecy was sent by Itherael for some damn reason.

There's nothing to really imply the angels are watching. They shut the gates and barred the door. If they're even alive at all up there, but that's a whole other theory.

*crashes in here* ok ik i havent been here in a bajillion years and i am so sorry for that and unloading a small novel on you dgkdgkh

but i had the dumbest thought. imagine tryna teach the sanderson's modern stuff. cuz i just saw a selfship post that said something along the lines of studying with your fo (fictional other. like a significant other, but its a fictional character instead of an actual human sgshdh) and now all i can think about is attempting to teach winnie, mary, and sarah all the stuff ive learned over the years

im not sure who'd find which subjects the most interesting. i dont have any art textbooks but i do have some notes from art history and waaayyy too many art supplies and i'd be happy to teach mary and sarah about art history and how to use some of the things i have (assuming i remember how to use thems). i think winnie would be fascinated by science! theres some branches of it like chemistry that feel a lot like magic, but i.... dont have access to things like that nor the smarts to even attempt to do chem (i do have access to vids so theres that at least), so it'd be hard to teach her that. i do have some anatomy and biology books that i think she'd like, and i have so many space books and i am dying to share them with all three of them holy dhit.

as for history, i think all three of them would be fascinated by it. theres been so many things that have happened since they died the first time around as well as so much that happened before they were born or happened when they were young but on the other side of the world.

plus, maybe some of what im talking to them about would help stick in my own brain easier so thats a bonus!

I am SO SORRY I'm answering this right now, but the past few weeks have been hectic to say the least 😭 I started Swedish clases lol.

Anyway YES I AGREE Mary but Sarah especially would be so interested in art methinks. Actually I believe Sarah is interested in fashion in some way (I hc that she made her own clothes and helped make Winnie's gown). And YES Winnie is so woman in STEM to me 😩 however I failed Chemistry every single year of high school lol BUT I was top of my class on Biology 😎 and actually think Sarah and Mary would be interested in Biology, although for different reasons (one for cooking and the other well... torture 😅).

OH YEAH HISTORY THAT'S SO FUN I think maybe they have an interest in different eras, Mary is definitely more of a contemporary girl (the way she picks up modern slang??? Scary). Winnie might be obsessed with the British Royal Family ngl 😭 I wonder what she'll think of Princess Diana. Now Sarah I'm not sure what she would enjoy from History 🤔 I mean ig fashion history or something idk 😭😭😭

ALSO ACTUALLY I REMEMBER WATCHING AN ALCHEMY VIDEO and it's pretty much Chemistry so. I think Mary would enjoy Chemistry too but maybe a different branch. Medicinal Chemistry perhaps? While Winnie is more of a Environmental Chemistry girl (since she literally can shoot lightning from her fingers I wouldn't be surprised she wanted to make a contraption to... Idk shoot fire as hot as the fucking sun)

catastrophic autism moment. jin & casey's wols throughout the years with some silly things below the cut

so jin's wol has gone through a lotttt of changes LEGACY: catgirl because catboys aren't around yet first of all. jin actually played on launch! :D aurora break'r was there since day one, she was a pld through and through! no crazy notes aside from the weapon she's holding being the starter zodiac relics.

ARR: finally. catboy. the warrior zodiac relic because of Course he'd grind that out. he's also a warrior cuz he wnated to try out another tank, and... WAR was the only other one at the time. he also gave his WOL the FF13 collab hair because i knoww he'd like ff13. unfortunately i haven't finished it so i don't know much to add here. but he would like it. HSW: the start of his DRK arc. aurora has golden eyes atp because of hraesvelgr and i loveee doing that to peoples' wols. the gear that he uses here is his current DRK glam, too! :D sillay note.

STB: sorry. he saw his first chance to dress slutty and took it. the first two ultimates came out and he ate those uppppppp. he went back to PLD because apparently DRK & WAR didn't feel good during stb. also it's been awhile since he played it so. lul.

SHB: back to being a woman. this is where the white eye comes in, too. also you can see the dqslime earrings. he'd love dragon quest methinks. anyways not that much to say here but he loved his bunnygirl. lightning hair btw because he liked lightning

EDW: THE END OF IT ALL. 5 ultimates under his belt. i know he lost his mind when mviera were announced cuz he was waiiiiting so long for them to come out. ever since he saw fran he was like +__+ thats rlly it for him

CASEY. ON THE OTHER HAND... i should say has gone through similar changes. believe it or not she fantasias way more than jin. jin only does it for jokes but casey does it because she likes messing around in the character creator. she just always comes back to the catgirl cuz she likes the fluffy ears and also being short. ALSO IM SO SAD I COULDN'T HAVE A LEGACY ONE FOR HER. well... i could've. but 8 y/o casey's wol would have made me sad. just know she was the kind of person that downloaded the game, played a bit, never touched her character until arr. speaking of which

ARR: ACN starter :D she thought carbuncles were sooooooooooo cuteiepie... u can't tell but both of her eyes are pink HSW: She heard a lot of people liked WHM, and the relic that came out for it was sooo cute that she decided to level it up n use it as her main job!! new hair just cuz she wanted to try it out. for lorereasons k'cea couldn't get a haircut since she was a criminal in eorzea... lol STB: SURPRISE! of course she'd want to try out the new cute girl race. ummmmm... still a whm. this was where she actually started to do hard content! she started doing savage fights with her brother (this is also where she started playing w/ jins static but it wasn't official. esp since she was still... 16 when they started coming out. but she started playing the game less casually :3 SHB: First ultimate clear baby... casey actually hasn't done UWU or UCoB. she dove headfirst into TEA w/ slopsquad :D this is where she started her SCH phase and she honestly hasn't looked back since. (back to ACN stuff btw which is soo cute to me) EDW: thats right. THE SAME CATGIRL!!!!!! there's nothing really new to say but she does flex her ultimate weapons and also is alwyas changing her glams :D

[zumpietoo]

Oh my god I am absolutely dying at milly defending pp traveling solo, "people have jobs." She was literally trashing cari for not going to PFW together even though clearly Ari had several shoots booked. What about Austyn? And I would hardly call what Jack has "a job" lmaoooo. She is such a hypocrite it's amazing.

OML.....already???? It IS why I did the whole "if PP wanted him there, he'd be there" thing.....cuz, yeah. Up to this point, his entire purpose for her is to power couple and sit behind her. Maybe even Peepster recognized what sweaty ded weight he is at these things.....oh and how HIS team tried to make him the invitee and HER the plus one....

And actually? What about MOMMEEEE???? The Peepster's been promising to take her along for years now!

ETA---here's a bit right now:

Ummm.....no? To ANY of this???

A) She was in Venice for 4 days? MAX? Of which her entire activities consisted of Armani B-squad shit/Miu Miu dinner and left the second those were done? Ditto Stockholm.

I can only see her attending TWO potential shows and will be in Paris for 3 days for them: Valentino and Miu Miu....and each show will last like 15 minutes. And that's IF she attends the first.

And it's doubtful she'll attend any parties, etc....because she hates that shit.

Besides peeps at Lancel (already established as fully ignored for all this/can't even mount anything, cuz nobody would bother), who TF does PP "know in Paris"?

Ummm.....PP was already "not a teenager" when she first was in Paris. In fact, she'd turned 20 by the time they legit were an actual couple (ignoring however many times they then split up) And "stuck with"? She'd actually gone there for Valentino without Cole, too.....and, again.....

IF SHE WANTED SWEATBOI WITH HER, HE'D BE WITH HER.

Actually, she'd spent moar time, previously in Venice the year before and why didn't she go to London, then? What about her "wife", Charli?

Methinks they know it's moar of her peeps realiced this is better for her career/are afraid it spells rocky for Cabana Pee....cuz, really, he has nothing else to do and his primary function IS to power couple.

Oh and also shows how minor league he is that he can't score an invite to ANYTHING!

ETA: appparently, Peepster's "wife" is in Paris, so I guess it's "cheating" (quotes intentional) time!

[hobgoblinns]

another funny thing (methinks) this time about jcs (specifically the 2012 arena tour) is that i watched it with a friend and its like

friend: he (judas) looks like the crying cat meme (in reference to his state at around judas' death section)

and also

me: peter looks like a twink

friend: no

and also we sat through the entire production even tho at the start they were like "imma just watch half the production for today lol" cuz it was pretty late so methinks it was a success :3

no ur so right peter IS a twink ESPECIALLY in that production. apart from the bit where he threatens a homeless woman (??). also my friend was also supposed to only watch the first act but he got too immersed and decided to stay for the whole thing AND then insisted we watch every other possible version of king herod's song because he wanted to know the different interpretations

🌟🥇👻🧸💄👗 u are the only izuru poster ever

🧸 a hc abt their childhood

ok so . unpopular opinion! i feel like izuru existed before the kamukura project. i hc that izuru split mainly because she’s kind of like. emotionless? thats not the right word but yk. she doesnt feel emotions as strongly/can repress them more easily. so anyway thats just to establish that she exists. anyhow. i think she was close w the naegi sisters when they were kids ! izuru and the naegis were the only cousins who were around the same age so they like clung to each other for dear life @ family gatherings

👻 a hc abt what scares them

it doesnt rlly count as a fear, but she doesnt like being treated inhuman/as a tool. and shes like. afraid of being abandoned? or afraid of not being *waves hands* idk like,,,, expressive enough? as a kid it was drilled into them (them=the sys) that being expressive was equal to having emotions which was equal to being a good human person and people not hating u. so she still is unpacking that ^__^

👗 a hc abt their clothes

she lieks comfy stuff but she likes looking pretty more methinks :-) when she was younger and first came out she dressed a lot more prep, but after ibuki & the naegi sisters encouraged her, she started dressing a lot more eclectic!! she loves layers and dark colors, also like bright colors. contrast is her favorite thing.. angie sews her a lot of clothes!,

🌟 a hc abt their desires/wishes

ahhh she has a LOT of guilt abt what happened to her & the others when they were kids, so one of her biggest wishes is that she could go back in time and change that :-( on a more positive note one of her most awesome funfun desires is that shes working on an indie rpg game with angie about a trans witch and she loves it and really wants to publish it!

🥇 a hc abt what theyre best at

she’s very good at spotting patterns and doing monotonous work, part of why she works on programming. this pattern-spotting talent makes her good at analyzing things, she mostly uses it on people & characters lol

💄 an appearance hc

freckles galore!! i think shes rather chubby, lots of love handles /pos :-) i do believe she has a lot of sh scars, not all of them r necessarily from her,, she has to wash her hair a lot cuz its so long. she also likes to die it! not all of it, she likes her black hair, but she likes dying parts of it reddish-brown sometimes :-)

[mikittalabs]

ough i got the tim rogers boku no natsuyasumi review on and it's 12:30am so i'm in a sentimental mood lol.

idk like i've realized that i've met a ton of people, had conversations with a bunch of people, and just kinda drifted apart. and i kinda miss them all, but not in a sad way? like i'm glad i knew them, and i don't really regret drifting apart, aside from like a high school case which is a bit of an outlier.

in elementary school, i was friends with 3 different kids who all moved away at some point during the year. recently, i've found myself wondering how they are, how's their life been since 15 years ago?

or the kids who didn't move and we just slowly drifted away, or the people i've had maybe just one conversation with and never saw them again, or my old coworkers, or family members i saw once and never again, or teachers i had.

i remember all their names. i know their faces. i remember what they sound like, what i talked with them about, but i don't miss them.

one group that always comes back in my head are my old friends from high school. i graduated in 2021, and to say that covid affected it would be an understatement, i think. i don't remember much of my senior year, but i do miss my high school friends.

i've finally put it together recently that what had happened was that i essentially started dissociating at the beginning of covid. i don't remember why it started, and i don't know why it ended, but that's the best conclusion i have.

some of the only memories i have of my senior year are the times i cried on 5 separate occasions, 4 of those were all at the end of the year. i know i had to have begun ignoring that friend group, and to go and apologize now would be kinda pointless. what would it do?

be kind of funny, methinks. "hey sorry i dropped off the face of the earth, i was lowkey dissociating for a year and a half straight."

good conversation starter.

there's one girl in particular that i'm kinda worried will see this. i know she has a tumblr account. i don't know why she'd look for my blog specifically.

i think i'm worried cuz it's her that i'd most want to formally apologize to. i've considered it a couple times, but again, i'm not sure what use it'd be after 2 years. what's done is done and all.

i can't change it, but i don't think i'd want to.

which sounds kind of contradictory, i just spent 5 paragraphs regretting how my high school year ended.

i think it'd be interesting to see what would change, but i'm fine with the me i am right now. it's not perfect, it could probably be a lot better, but it's me and that's fine.

i think i'd get more out of getting to talk with my high school self. which sounds kinda wild, cuz that'd just be me but 3 years younger. idk man

so yea. sentimental mood moment

Tommy and Benrey go apeshit

THEY ARE LITERALLY BROTHERS, UR HONOR! Ok so like, their models in the series is why I did both "they are so cool looking" and "why do they look like that" LOL also I put "works better as part of a dynamic" bc like.... idk how to explain it really, I just feel like they all mesh so well it's very Do Not Separate. They both got done dirty in very different ways. Benrey got Tumblr Sexyman'd and Tommy got Papyrus'd..... they are both autistic tho no doubt about that. Benrey is simultaneously not as deep as he seems and deeper than he seems.... that's kind of the series as a whole tho methinks. Also I'm the only person who is right about them (aside from Liz and Mochi lol shout out to them) bc nobody understands that they are literally brothers. they are *literally* Sans and Papyrus. I would be slightly afraid of Benrey just bc he can be kind of unpredictable and has no concept of consequence. I could have marked "nothing I like about them is technically canon" for Tommy too but the base is there... Autistic, Ace, and Trekkie. I mean he's not canonically autistic but I think he is very like, accidentally autistic coded. I could talk about that for ages so I won't get too into it lol. everyone in the series is kind of a sorta shitty person if you take it too seriously but that's bc it's like. an improv with cartoon logic LOL. I would carry Benrey around in a little purse tho he is literally a little sibling to me 10/10 would aggressively play Wii sports with. I also think there's a lot more that could have been done with the whole... Child of Gman thing. biological child too cuz like, the whole reason they (rtvs that is) made that a thing is bc the slick model looks like Gman. in canon he doesn't get any powers or anything cool... I think the crew said he would be in HR but I think he is so biology nerd. I read a fic ages ago where the author made it so that "HR" was a cruel nickname Tommy got from his coworkers for showing sympathy towards the aliens and other test subjects and it's literally everything to me. they were so right for that. ermmm I think that's everything in the chart lol I love them tho they are everything to me

A scene where Jaskier is getting drunk as a skunk when Yennefer shows up by his table. And he decides to confide to her but makes her promise not to tell Yennefer. She agrees to see when he’s going with this and he drunkenly rambles about how great she is. “But don’t tell Yennefer she’ll turn me to a toad. I’m too pretty to be turned into a toad!” Yennefer pats his silly head.

THIS IS SO CUTE! One-shot incoming!

--

"...And she's just soooo lovely!" Jaskier rambled about one Yennefer of Vengerberg, completely unaware that the beautiful lady he'd been blathering to, leaning drunkenly on her shoulder, was the very same witch he'd been going on about. His not recognizing Yennefer came not from any unusual glamour or shape-shifting - no, Jaskier was just that drunk.

"Oh, is she now?" Yennefer played along, leaning her head to the side as she looked at the far-beyond-tipsy bard. She hadn't expected Jaskier to start blabbering drunkenly about her right to her face, but when he told her not to tell Yennefer about what he was going to say - "Don't tell Yenny. Orrr tell Geralt, 'cuz then he'll tell Yenny! A big mess, that would be." he'd said - Yennefer decided not to make any effort to tell Jaskier who exactly she was talking to. Drunk words are sober thoughts after all, and the mage was curious.

(And quite frankly, she wasn't quite sure if she could convince Jaskier that it was her in front of him, or rather, at his side as he leaned against her shoulder, but this narrator digresses.)

But she expected to hear bardly insults and drunken digs at her that he hadn't said to her face yet, not the praise pouring out of his mouth right now.

"Mhm! Her hair is so smooth and silky, and I just looove when moonlight shines off of it. And her eyes! Oh, the most vibrant of amethyst!" Jaskier said, shaking his head to try to get his hair off his face. He following his praise with a hiccup and a giggle.

"And her voice is sooo nice to listen to! It's even prettier than mine, and that's saying alot!" He continued. Yennefer held back a petty remark - "I don't think it says much at all, really." She might have said. - that might have led him on to realize who he was talking to. She liked listening to him sing her praises. Or rather, blather them drunkenly.

"Is it? Hm?"

"Ooooh, yes it is!" Jaskier said with raised eyebrows, as if it was the most urgent of statements to confirm. "Even when she's being mean, it sounds like heaven! I quite like when she's mean, actually. It's sexy. But when she's sweet..."

He twirled his finger around the rim of his pint, staring at the splash of ale that still remained.

"...I really like that too. It's adooorable. But... methinks she'd curse me if I told her." Jaskier said, sounding more disappointed in how he thought he could never say these things to her than he was scared at the possibility of a curse.

"I don't think so, darling." Yennefer assured him. Jaskier only shrugged with a hum.

"...I wanna marry 'er someday, y'know. But I can't."

Yennefer couldn't believe what she was hearing. She wouldn't have been able to if he was sober, she thought, but hearing it while the bard was drunk off his ass made it all but incredulous.

Still, she smiled, smitten.

"Well, why ever not? I don't know of any laws forbidding the union of mages and bards."

Jaskier, as drunk as he still was, seemed almost shocked by such a question, as if it were incredulous. To the inebriated bard, it apparently was.

"How could I? She's incredible! Glorious! How could I ever get down one knee and ask her for her hand in marriage? To spend the rest of her life with me of all people?"

"Oh, you of all people?" She egged on.

"Yes, ridiculous, isn't it? I'm sitting here, all... drunken-like," He gestured to himself and his pint in a way that was little more than just waving his hand around in front of him. "And she's probably off somewhere doing something amaaazing, like killing a monster, or using some spell to take some dickbag mage's cock off his body, or something. Something phenomenal, just like her."

He laughed softly to himself.

"Sheee's a, sheee's a laaady..." he sang to himself, "and Iiii am juuust a baaard..."

Oh, no. He was drunk-singing now - a clear indicator that it was high time for him to retire.

Yennefer scooted out of the booth, much to Jaskier’s dismay as he lolled to the side.

“I think you’ve had enough, bard.” She gently urged, holding out her  hands, “Come on, I’ll take you upstairs.”

“Oooohoohoohoohoooooh!” Jaskier huffed his usual indecorous laugh. “No, no, no, Madame! I will not bed with you! My love belongs to another, did you not hear me just now?”

Yennefer tilted her head, holding back an exasperated huff. Wow, he really was drunk off his ass.

“Not to bed you, to take you to your room. Your Witcher’s been waiting for you since he came back from his hunt.”

Jaskier raised his eyebrows a bit and nodded, seeming to recognize such circumstances.

“Ooooh, right, right, yeah.” He nodded as he put his hands in her outstretched ones. “Your hands... they’re soft like hers.”

Yennefer pulled him to his feet, “I try.”

Jaskier was indeed plenty intoxicated, so she wrapped an arm around his waist and started guiding him upstairs.

“Oooh, handsy!”

“I’m not handsy.” she huffed as she continued to take him up, “Just making sure you don’t fall on your arse.”

“So cold...” Jaskier mumbled as he hung his head, “Just like my darling witch.”

“I’m not surprised.” she told him as she found the room Geralt had rented for himself and Jaskier. He couldn’t think her a stranger for too much longer, could he?

Before she knocked on the door, the drunken bard spoke up again.

“Remember, you can’t tell Yennefer what I said. Nooo, no no!” He reminded her as he brought a finger up.

“Don’t. Tell. Yenny.” He booped her nose with each word.

Yennefer was passive to the pokes to her nose; such must have insured, to the inebriated musician leaning against her, that this stranger could not have been Yennefer, for Yennefer would have cursed his member to a thimble’s size if he’d tried to tap her on the nose like that.

“Otherwise,” his eyes widened, “She might turn me into a toad. I’m too pretty to be a toad!”

Yennefer, still endeared by the bard (he was plenty adorable when he was sober, but he’d been especially amusing in this drunken state), brought up a free hand and pat his head.

What a silly, silly bard he was.

“You won’t have to worry about that.” She assured him.

Jaskier nodded, which was more or less just his head lolling back and forth at this pont.

“Aaalright, if you say so.” He accepted as he started to nod off against her side, using her head more or less like a pillow. Yennefer grunted under the weight as Jaskier, quickly blacking out, started to slip into unconsciousness. She moved her free hand to knock on the door of Geralt’s room.

Melitele’s tits, Jaskier was heavy.

She heard footsteps approach the other side of the door until the room’s current, Witchery inhabitant opened it. Geralt stood there, armor having just been removed, looking at the two with a raised eyebrow.

“Geralt, your bard’s drunk.”

Still trying to let this week’s episode sink in, cuz holy shit, that was amazing! Rin woke up for a second, but not for the right reasons, and Sesshy was all, “Zero, you have one job—“ 😂

But for reals, I want to rant about Zero and Rin for a bit.

I think one of the reasons why I love Yashahime so much is because, personally—I never thought that Rin would be the center of the main story, yknow? This isn’t to say that she’s a weak character, on the contrary. She’s the mother of the twins and she’s Sesshoumaru’s wife, yes, but we can never forget that in the OG series she has always been a secondary character. An important one at that, but never as the one who took center stage, excluding an episode or two.

But in Yashahime, it’s different. Rin’s very existence—and what she means to Sesshoumaru and subsequently, what she represents in Zero’s view—is the overarching drama of the story.

And they’ve more than shown that, haven’t they? Especially in this latest episode.

During her chat with Inukimi, Zero’s reveals that it was never truly about the twins or about Moroha. She went about it in a roundabout, messy way (even going so far as to dying easily from Setsuna’s attack) but the end goal was the same for her: whether it was through his children or his wife, she wanted to make Sesshoumaru suffer and feel heartbreak, just as she had felt heartbreak at Toga’s passing.

She’s not jealous of Rin personally—she’s jealous of what Rin represents in her eyes: another Izayoi. Another human woman who managed to steal the heart of a great dog demon, and one whom she believes will undoubtedly lead him to his death.

She’s projecting her jealousy and bitterness onto Rin, that is to say an incarnation of Izayoi, because, as she described herself in this episode, she’s “a woman who was not chosen by the great dog demon.”

And it’s such an interesting aspect of her mind as one who was originally a demon, methinks. XD Zero is basically an inversion of Naraku; Naraku was born from the jealousy of a human man whose love was unrequited; Zero as she is now is an entity not quite human or demon, born from the jealousy and bitterness of a demon whose love was unrequited.

Zero can accept defeat from someone like Inukimi: a demon she considers, for the most part, her equal. If not herself, Inukimi was a fitting partner in her eyes for Toga; we know this because of the respect Kirinmaru gives her. At the very least, her own feelings towards her aside, Zero didn’t try to influence or negate Kirinmaru’s respect for Inukimi.

But Zero, no matter what she does to diffuse her grief for Toga’s passing, cannot accept defeat from someone like Izayoi. She’s held onto that hatred for so long, her pride as a demon won’t allow her to let go of it. So much so that she even tried to drag Inukimi in her emotional self-immolation. Lol And it’s honestly fitting how Inukimi describes her, no matter how humiliating it is, as part of that group she calls “women who burn from love.”

And for those who would argue otherwise, y’all know that we’ve definitely seen this before from one of our main characters in the OG series; hell, it was half of the drama in the OG series, tbh. 😂 Maybe not quite as dramatic, but there were times that the audience could see how much Kagome cursed Kikyo’s existence.

Zero loves and hates Toga with equal passion, that much I can say. And yet it’s so fascinating to me how someone who sees being compared or likened to a human as the ultimate insult cannot see how utterly human it is to feel that intensely towards someone.

It’s probably the reason why (and I may be clowning myself, so don’t @ me, y’all) she is most likely the one who tied Rin to herself. By tying Rin to her, she’s literally holding her life—the life in her eyes of one who will bring about the downfall of Toga’s flesh and blood—in the palm of her hands.

I’m definitely interested in how they will bring Zero’s character full circle. Will she finally let go of her jealousy and move on or will she die and “burn from love” just as Homura did?

The Amount of Self Control I Have...

So it’s 8:30pm on a Thursday and I am in town in the local grocery store to pick something up real quick... Lo and behold... before we got there (cuz it was just a quick stop in) there was a man talking to the young lady cashier...

After we’ve grabbed what we were there for... he is STILL talking to the young lady... only now? I can hear what he’s talking about.

He’s anti-trans, ladies, gents, and enbies... Should’ve guessed... But he is talking about recent legislation, oh fun!! How we dems, libs, and transes are talking to 5 year olds about gender and that’s just wrong...

Sir... I am a trans. Right here, before your very eyes. And yet I say nothing because I live in a small town and pass as cis (which is good considering all the Trump flags in town...)

Also... I note you say nothing about the legislation in Kentucky... how quaint.

As well as... you find it horrifying that trans children exist and yet... cishets are perfectly fine plastering their babies with phrases such as “Daddy is jealous I had boobies for breakfast” and YOU find that cute. I don’t.

May I also ask... what about a little boy in a dress is so sexual to you? Why are you sexualizing a child wearing a dress? Because I see a child who wants to feel free... You see people forcing their kid to be sexual. Why are YOU sexualizing the child? Just wondering.

But I apparently looked really mad, with my already resting murder-face. So he finished bothering the cashier and she nervous laughed and switched the conversation to the music playing so I assume she didn’t want to talk about that.

But holy hell... Sir... You just had a trans right before you... and knew nothing of it. Methinks you’re just full of it. :)
