#kyro’s Reblogs

[kyros-tha-soldier]

Oda creates the most evil looking, badass, hardened, tough and strong men, and then gives you their backstories where he shows them to be absolute sweeties and cutie pies and expects me not to do this to them

i am all over those goofsters do you hear me Oda? i am obsessed and it's YOUR fault!!

With that, round 1 concludes; Thank you for participating! 

Zhenya, Westley, Ája, Dasha, Kyro, and Betty are moving onto round 2. But not before a well deserved break! For the next week, this blog will receive no updates (other than reblogs of already existing art, maybe, but don’t count on it). After that, the interviews will start up, so get your questions ready!

Thank you again, not only for your participation, your comments on the posts we make, too. They encourage us to move forward with this. This show wouldn’t be able to run without you.

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER.

repost, do not reblog this

NAME: Lita, Pom, Pomberry... I answer to all of them, and any combination of the three!

PRONOUNS : She/Her

PREFERENCE OF COMMUNICATION : Tumblr IMs! I have discord, but I don't like giving that out to people I don't seriously trust. <3

NAME OF MUSE(s): Lumine, Kagota, Aceline, Shikanoin Cettra, Astra Fellheart, Shikanoin/Mayuzumi Saiki, Kyros/Caden Ragnvindr, Rosalee, Kalistratos, Leandros, Apollo Fellheart (guest muse), Adria (guest muse)

BEST EXPERIENCE: Right now? I gotta say getting the overarching canon on this blog to where it is along @yoroiis and @waltzofphoenix! <3 The setups, the canon, the characters, how it all flows and works together, the constant realizations of "Oh, THAT'S how it works-", the plotbunnies - It's all been amazing and I love it so much <3

RP PET PEEVES / DEALBREAKERS: Forcing things on me, trying to force nsfw into EVERYTHING/make everything sexual to some degree, stealing/copying/cloning my stuff (just.. Ask if you have inspiration from something I've got going here and want to see how I run it, or if it's close to how you'd like to write it? I don't mind working with you to have something similar without cloning it exactly?), ignoring what I've said to push on me 'actually no you meant/did this', godmodding, pressuring me to do things certain ways I normally wouldn't

MUSE PREFERENCES: I write mainly female muses and tend to lean into them more than I do male, but I have a few male muses! <3

PLOTS OR MEMES: Both! <3 Memes are sometimes easier to run off of, but plots are oftentimes where I tend to shine most~

LONG OR SHORT REPLIES: I literally can't do short, so definitely gonna be giving back long replies most often~

BEST TIME TO WRITE: It depends? A lot of the time it's whenever I'm alone, but when I can't do that, as long as I'm not being bothered by offline stuff (which is often), I can just slap on some headphones and quiet music and write. If that's not working? Most of my stuff is done late at night, and posted either early afternoon or on completion later in the night.

ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSE(S): Not really? I am a little like Aceline, considering I do LOVE reading and I can oftentimes go down a rabbit hole of reading up on various topics when trying to research something, and I'm as protective of my loved ones as Kag, but I think that's about all???

Tagged by: Stole it from one of my other blogs <3

Tagging: @waltzofphoenix, @yoroiis, steal it! <3

WEBTOON Recommendations

Since most of my original posts have been Webtoon-related, I thought it would be appropriate to share some of my favorites. These are the ones that I read as soon as they update.

Purple Hyacinth 

Lauren Sinclair, a lie-detecting police officer, teams up an infamous assassin known as the Purple Hyacinth to take down the fearsome Phantom Scythe.

Ok, so it’s no surprise that this one is at the top. This Webtoon has multi-layered characters, an intriguing plot, and lots of theory material. My favorite character is Kieran, the titular Purple Hyacinth.

Subzero

Princess Clove of the Azure Kingdom marries her sworn enemy, Prince Kyro of the Crimson Empire, to bring peace to the long-warring kingdoms. The two grow closer as they help each other navigate court politics and Raizo’s schemes.

This one’s my second-favorite Webtoon. I honestly like the art better in this one than in Purple Hyacinth. And the romance is certainly spicier than PH. But Subzero rivals PH in terms of plot and character development.

She’s Hopeless

When Tae-ung accepts a job as a secret bodyguard for heiress Gabin Kim, he has no idea what he signed up for. His charge proves difficult as she bullies everyone around her and seems bent on self-destruction. Furthermore, he has to keep his job a secret from everyone.

What makes this drama interesting is the different challenges that Tae-ung faces in his job. Between the normal high-school drama of bullying and romance, gaining new friends, and keeping an eye on Gabin, the male lead finds himself struggling to maintain his cover. The reader also gains new insight into different characters, especially Gabin, which gives different perspectives to their actions.

This story is currently on hiatus, but you can still read it on WEBTOON.

So I Married the Anti-fan

A mutual misunderstanding between pop idol Who Joon and journalist Genyoung escalates to the point where she becomes his #1 anti-fan. Both get roped into filming a reality show together, and soon they start learning more about each other. Romance begins to blossom between the ever-bickering twosome.

I love the dynamic of the main couple. Maybe I have a soft spot for couples that bicker on screen but still care for each other deep down. I especially love how both characters learn to see things from each other’s perspective and begin to fall for each other as they learn more about the other person.

There Must be Happy Endings 

Seonjae Kang and Yeonu’s marriage ends in divorce and Seonjae’s tragic death. However, they get a do-over when Yeonu goes back in time before their divorce. This time, she is determined to prevent the tragedy and give them the happy ending they’ve always wanted.

This Webtoon shows an engaging and realistic portrayal of relationships. I enjoy watching the couple learn how to communicate and respect each other as they work to preserve their marriage. Also, the artwork is beautiful!

If I talked about all the Webcomics I enjoy, this post would never end. However, I hope this has given you some good stories to enjoy. What Webtoons are your favorites? Let me know in the comments and/or reblogs. Thanks for reading this post!

Tag List Update: 2020

My tag lists are nearly a year old, so it’s about time for an update. These are the lists I have for the books I write for, and any open series (ie, me calling myself out to finish something before starting 3 more things). There are more AUs on my WIP list, but it’s too early to list them here. 

If you’re happy where you are, let me know 

If you want to change where you are (on/off a Perma list, on/off a series) comment, reblog, or DM me to move you around

If you’re no longer into my writing and don’t want to be tagged anymore - just ignore this post. No hurt feelings. I know everyone’s interests change, and I don’t want to keep tagging anyone who doesn’t want to read my stuff

If you’re not on any of the lists and managed to see this post and you want to be added, comment/reblog/DM and I’ll add you 💙

I’ll keep the window open until Sunday, 6 September, and update lists accordingly. I know not everyone is around, and life gets busy, so you can always get in touch with me to be added back to something if you see this after the cutoff date.

I’m including a short description for each series in case you’re new or most likely because it’s been so long since I’ve updated that you - and I - have forgotten what it’s about. Please also note that I’ve got no rhyme or reason to a posting schedule, so this is the best way to get an alert for a story that you like. 

THANK YOUUUU! 💙💙💙

ONE PIECE DRESSROSA-ZOU ARCS IMPRESSIONS

This part is the spoiler-free part of my impressions.

I don’t know what I was expecting from Dressrosa but it didn’t left me wanting for more... outside the animation part, probably. But I mean when you get spoiled on how OP’s being animated rn, no sh*t. Although I really did enjoy the new characters. Cavendish is accidentally becoming one of my favourite characters and this is because of the anime of Gintama... But that’s because I’m finding more and more seiyuus in One Piece that just so happened to be voicing recurrent characters (or straight up main characters) in Gintama, so I shouldn’t be suprised.

And then there’s Zou and I’d lie if I’d say I should have had expected an island with furries, and yet I didn’t. ...and once again the “holy sh*t I wasn’t expecting these seiyuus being in One Piece too” striked back. But at this point I don’t know if it’s really because of Gintama or just because I’m starting to go back to my old teen hobbies like when I was a hardcore Seiyuu fan, and recognizing a lot of seiyuus is giving me a huge bust of serotonin. (?)

Above all, I liked Dressrosa more than Zou, even if Dressrosa has... it’s own issues.

If you want to go straight up to the spoiler section, click down here:

Let’s start with Dressrosa:

I thought to just continue this lil update, where I started the non spoiler section by saying that I won’t feel any shame or make an apology for reblogging non stop posts of Roronoa Zoro, I’m still on that Idea, fight me if you want(maybe no); but I decided to explain more about my first impressions, and then maybe elaborate extra stuff from those bullet point-lighning round from that post.

Overall, I had fun. I geniuently enjoyed Doffy as a villain, and his motivations where pretty interesting too. NGL, this arc is basically new world Alabasta” and it pretty much shows... But the thing is that this time it was a little bit more interesting because of Doffy.

Doffy being the combo of Warlord and Celestial Dragon may sound like that moment of the Simpsons of “it’s just the same doll but with a new hat” in comparison to Alabasta, but even if I also enjoyed Crocodile as a villain in there, at least Doffy had a more interesting backstory and motivations to explore... while Crocodile was just an excuse to show off Nico Robin in all her glory. That’s it. I said it. (and probably made a fwend sad). Please, Crocodile, sir, next time you come back please do show us the secret Ivankov and you only know and then we talk.

Overall, I just had the time of my life hating Doffy, that’s it. I’m not going to try to explain anything else. I’m a basic b*tch whose favourite villains are the ones who are just so evil I just have the time of my life hating on. Like Tsurumi from Golden Kamuy, another despicable motherf*cker, for instance.

And now that I’m talking about Doffy... I KNOW UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE LIKE CORA-SAN AND I ALSO JOIN THE GANG. BEST FATHER EVER AND HE BARELY WAS ONE FOR 6 MONTHS. BUT GAVE BABY TORAO ENOUGH LOVE TO PREVENT HIM FROM BECOMING LIKE HIS BROTHER. KUDOS TO HIM.

...Btw, I just need to break this impressions one moment to openly say that, as a Spaniard, I feel weird now saying Doffy’s entire name. For a reason. And Cora-san’s too. Now I understand english speakers(americans to be more precisely) when they watch Bungou Stray Dogs and some characters from there just happened to be named after famous english literature writers... (the first comparison I just thought about, don’t attack me plz)

Also, kudos to the voice actors because they did an amazing job and I had even more fun, like for instance Koyama Rikiya. I absolutely loved Kyros thanks mainly to him... Although I wish I could entirely say the same about Rebecca and Baby 5 because they barelly had any screentime or, at least personally speaking, didn’t to bring something interesting tothe table... Well, maybe I can excuse Baby 5 because of the ending of Punk Hazard, but with Rebecca definetly not. FFS her seiyuu is the Queen Hayashibara Megumi, I was expecting more from Rebecca (although maybe the blame is really in me for expecting that much) than what we got. But don’t get me wrong, I did like her but.. I wanted just a little bit more of her.

Another thing I enjoyed a lot was the introduction of Fujitora. I knew he was popular for a reason, but I wasn’t expecting it to be... because of this. I was expecting him to be popular only because he was a blind old man who could fight harder than the dudebro’s gary stu fanfic-like idea they have of Zoro, but he’s definetly not that. Fujitora is a really interesting man who geniuently thinks about people’s safety (can’t say the same about Sakazuki and Borsalino, lol), and I respect that.

*LAST MOMENT EDIT BECAUSE I FORGOT ANOTHER VERY IMPORTANT THING* THE REUNION OF LUFFY AND SABO MADE ME CRY TOO. I DON’T KNOW, I’M CRYING TOO MUCH OVER ONE PIECE

Now I’m just going through some bullet points from the update post:

First bullet point I’m actually elaborating: The Colloseum part was hella boring.

I just couldn’t stand it. I barely gave any sh*t about the characters and there’s also times where I’m just thinking that the Colloseum part could had been handled differently, with more interesting characters but well, that’s my opinion. I mean the only tournament arcs that I genuenly enjoyed were the Galaxy Wars from Saint Seiya (the OG one from the 80′s if somebody’s wondering), and maybe the Heaven’s Arena arc from HxH, so even if I was interested on seeing the OP take on it.. It kinda went sour for me at the beggining of this tournament, honestly. The fight versus Diamante was probably one of the very few interesting things happening inside the tournament.

And don’t get me wrong, interesting things do happen inside, like the encounter of Luffy and Rebecca, the fate of the losers from the colloseum, etc. But the tournament arc itself... not the best thing, pretty boring tbh.

The second bullet point I’m actually elaborating, but this time I’m literally copy-pasting the bullet point... for a reason: I STARTED TO SWEAT IN F*CKING FEAR WHEN NAMI’S GROUP ENCOUNTERED BIG MAM’S SHIP, AND EVEN MORE WHEN SANJI SAID “I’M GETTING INTO THAT SHIP”. NO. PLEASE. DON’T. I’M NOT READY FOR WHOLE CAKE ISLAND YET.

Look, by the time I’m writing this I’m already in Whole Cake and let me just tell you one thing; I’m still not ready for this arc. I know it’s very important, specially for Sanji’s development as a character and it’s like a re-introduction of him, but I’d lie if I’d said that I “do feel sensitive” around the themes explored in this arc, and it’s personally tought to go throught it but... Since it’s just too long and too personal to share the entire reason on a public post, I’m just leaving it as the following: “I’m not ready to tackle those themes, but I feel like I need to tackle them if I want to be the best version of myself”. That’s all.

The third and last bullet point I’m actually elaborating, LET ME TELL YOU HOW GINTAMA F*CKED ME UP ENTIRELY

For the sake of being short, I’m a crazy Gintama fan. I’m almost like an encyclopedia of shorts for all(?) Gintama content. I’ve been like this since I was 14-15 y/o (when I’m writing this I’m currently 25), so of course, if there’s something that remotely resembles something from Gintama (mainly gintama jokes or references when it happens), I’ll react to it instantly (but in a healthy way, not like an obnoxious annoying elitist lil sh*t of a fan), and sadly, part of this curse I ended up with included reconizing every single seiyuu that appeared in Gintama (or at least the ones who voiced important/popular characters) in other anime. And of course, seiyuus from Gintama did already appear before Dressrosa; like kid Ace’s seiyuu Sakaguchi Daisuke (voice of Shinpachi), or... Akainu’s seiyuu Tachiki Fumihiko (voice of Hasegawa “Madao” Taizou)... But then there’s Dressrosa and... It just went all over the board (pun not intended... does it even count as one tho?).

And don’t get me wrong, this did also happened to me on reverse with One Piece Seiyuus, but.... coming back to “Gintama f*cked me up”, it hitted differently, because it almost looked like they were casted to play certain characters based on the characters they played in Gintama and... NGL, it made everything even more hilarious. Like the fact that Kugimiya Rie voices a bad mouthed “child” in One Piece(Sugar)... just like she does in Gintama(Kagura). And I know technically speaking Sugar “is an adult” BUT, if we follow the logic of her Hobby Hobby fruit, she’s doomed to be an eternal child for the rest of her life, as in “no more development like a normal adult human would”. I’m just saying what the canon says, don’t mind me.

...Or Cavendish. I can confirm you that Cavendish is pretty much Gintama’s Katsura Kotarou’s madness as an OP character. And now he’s one of my favourite background characters in One Piece... Mainly because of that. And yes, they do in fact share the seiyuu Ishida Akira. (Also, is it just me or is he inspired by Lady Oscar from The Rose of Versailles???)

...So yeah, TLDR: too much gintama made me shout “oh shit, gintama’s taking over one piece”

Now with the Zou impressions

I liked the idea of Zou being an “island”, that’s not an Island but a millennia old elephant, walking around and hard to track down. Brilliant. Also, I’m pretty sure it’s inspired by something mythological but I still can’t point out which one.

...also I wasn’t expecting Pedro to be voiced by Miki Shin’Ichiro, in the same way I wasn’t expecting Orikasa Fumiko as Wanda... although she already voiced someone previously in One Piece so...

Even if it was a short arc, it gave a lot of valuable information like the origin of the poneglyphs and the link between the Mink tribe and the Kozuki clan from Wano but...

What I wasn’t expecting was how we got introduced to the Whole Cake arc. I came to this arc, thinking the Whole Cake thing won’t be that mentioned and... I ended up crying because of the sacrifice Sanji was willing to partake in... I feel bad for that guy... And since by the time of writing this I’m already in Whole Cake... Without spoilers I’ll say: yeah, no sh*t I was feeling bad for him” (also because I got almost entirely spoiled over all Whole Cake arc).

...but look, ngl, I didn’t like very much the ending of this arc. Probably what happened to Momonosuke and the Millennia old elephant may be more interesting and better explained in the near future but... I was more confused than anything, and I’m hopping it to be better explained in the future. I’ll just leave it as such.

Over all, if I had to choose, I’d say that Dressrosa was more entertaining than Zou... Although Zou did deliver bigger stuff when it comes to plot development, while Dressrosa was more focused on the next step to overthrow a Yonkou than anything, I felt like I had more ”fun” watching Dressrosa... Probably because I also want to get to Wano already.

Now I’m in Whole Cake arc, I’m more or less by the beggining of the arc and oh boy... This arc is going to be harder than expected and the only thing ready I have are the pocket tissues by my side because I already know I’m going to cry the hell out of this arc. And of course, have my soul utterly destroyed by the Reintroduction of Sanji and his past.

I hope he has a break after this because wow... He needs too many hugs to count. Probably more than Luffy in Marineford.

Love Amidst the Darkness

Prologue

“Ahhhh!”

 The screams of the queen echoed across the great halls of the Melodian palace. Knights and handmaidens alike were frantically running across the palace trying to keep order as the king was in a state of panic as his wife was in intense pain in the delivery room. Just the sheer yells of his love sent chills up his spine as he could do nothing to ease her, as this was her battle to fight.

 “Ahhhh!”

 The king could not help but feel angered at the fact that he couldn’t be there to comfort his love, but he put his faith in the nursemaids. The choice to have an heir to the throne was something he and the queen had discussed for some time, they didn’t need to, but they both soon realized that they would both love a child, a fresh ray of light in their long lives. The entire kingdom was eagerly awaiting the arrival of the new royal. This was very exciting news and a big festival was being set up for the new royal. The king deeply sighed as he paced around the hallway outside the birthing chamber, constantly looking at the door and gritting his teeth together. He looked out the ornate windows of the palace as the sun slowly began to rise. The queen had been in labor for at least 20 hours. He believed it was taking too long, but he was no doctor and he couldn’t be too sure. As he began pacing again a maid ran out the room holding a lot of bloody blankets. The sight sent chills up and down his spine.

 “Wait! My queen is she well?! What about the child!?” The King asked in desperation.

 “The queen is well Your Majesty. The child is almost with us,” the maid explained rushing down the hall.

 The king sighed in relief as he sat on the floor opposite the door. He clenched his fists tightly as sweat began to fill his palms. The anticipation was killing him and he couldn’t take it much longer. He sighed deeply and rested his head between his knees. As he lost himself in thought he finally heard the one sound he waited nine months for. The sound of his child finally entering the world. The king quickly rose to his feet as the nursemaids exited the room and smiled at him.

 “My King…you may go and see the queen now,” the head nurse smiles. “Your child is healthy….the princess has been born.”

 “My daughter….” The king nervously smiles and steps in front of the door. He slows his breath as he hears his beloved talking to their new addition to the family. He raises his hand to the door and gently knocks.

 “Come in…” The sweet sound of his wife’s voice sent a happy flutter to his heart. He opens the door and stops as he takes in the sight before him. He never realized how much more he could love his wife then when he saw her then. The queen was propped up against thousands of pillows and her lower body was wrapped comfortably in blankets. Her long silvery blonde hair was wet with her sweat and loose in all directions and her bangs were plastered to her forehead with sweat. She wasn’t looking at him, her attention was purely focused on the bundle of blankets cradled in her arms. As he stared, he never thought he saw anything more beautiful. His queen always looked beautiful, radiant even, her beauty was unmatched to anyone in the entire kingdom. Throughout her pregnancy her beauty increased throughout the months, now seeing her holding their daughter, exhausted but happy and ever beautiful he couldn’t help but cry at the sight. The queen noticed his presence and looked away from her daughter to smile at her husband. He quickly wipes away his tears and nervously shuffles to the end of the bed.

 “Kyros.” 

 “Hestia.”

 “Don’t be nervous…come meet our daughter.”

 The king nervously swallows and sits on the bed beside his wife and peers down at the bundle of blankets in her arms. He gently pulls the blankets away from the newborn's face and his breath catches in his throat.

 “T-This…This is our daughter?” He chokes out slowly stroking the infant's soft red cheeks.

 “Of course my love…she’s amazing isn’t she?”

 “S-She’s gorgeous.”

 He smiles down at his beloved daughter and takes in her delicate features. She had soft wispy strands of hair the same as her mother. She had a small perfect nose and soft rosy cheeks. Her lips were tiny and pink as she kept pursing her lips. She was the mirror image of her mother. He could see a bit of himself in the shape of her face. He delicately touches her soft hair and smiles in joy. At his touch she slowly opens her eyes revealing her light purple eyes and her full lashes. Definitely the mirror image of her mother. And the king couldn’t be more proud of the wonderful creature he and his wife had made together.

 “What do you think of her?” The queen looks up at her husband. He leans down and kisses her softly.

 “I think she’s perfect…she’ll be a fine woman one day…just like her mother.” The queen smiles back down at her baby and kisses her forehead.

 “What’s her name, my queen?” The queen's face lights up in joy as she looks at her daughter.

 “Althea…Princess Althea of Melodia.”
