vbs headcanons ^_^???

okay suree!! tbh I dont keep them in one place and they just come in and out of my mind randomly but ill try my best to list as many as i remember (also i apologize in advance if the quantity isnt evenly spread out between characters im just ill)

- kohane is a biology/wildlife nerd in general and she loves nature documentaries. i feel like she made vbs watched one w her at least once. also she knows lots of animal fun facts

- related to this, her college major (if she does go) would be biology or veterinary

- kohane got her heart necklace from her dad as a gift

- kohane likes fantasy as a genre and especially appreciates intricate worldbuilding (i think shed like stuff like dungeon meshi and LOTR)

- oh also i feel like pokemon would tickle her fancy

- she also likes yuri (popular hc i know snnsns) and i think shed like either cute and funny ones (like cant defy the lonely girl or kase san) or deeper, grounded series with themes of becoming who you truly are in spite of societys expectations (like run away with me girl)

- toya also likes yuri. my sixth yuri sense tells me that hed like this monster wants to eat me and bloom into you, tho hed be into what kohane likes too. hed like exploring new genres and would see something valuable in every series like the curious boy he is

- an likes shounen manga and anime, especially sports ones and, of course, music ones. i feel like shed like my hero academia, haikyuu and girls band cry (for the music too). oh shed probs like stuff like hypnosis mic too just for the crack value.

- akito (un)fortunately shares an's taste in anime, tho i feel like hed be into some very specific BL too. i feel like hed like given and banana fish? i only know like the basic premises of those but the vibes match up. oh also hed never admit that out loud. hed like durarara too idk vibes

- an likes mint flavored things. chewing gum, candies, ice cream, u name it. even the spicy ones. I bet shed like using mens shampoo with menthol too (im projecting here)

- anchans already a tea drinker in canon, AND she likes growing mint, so i think shed make her own mint tea

- kohane was something adjacent to a warrior cats kid (tho she was too shy to actually run on all fours), or a furry. the vibes. the vibes are there

- if I had to choose the most chronically online vbs member it'd be kohane too. then, in order, toya, akito and anchan (shed be kinda behind on online culture but also not too behind if yk what i mean).

- akito is a hugger but thats like a friendship lvl 50 information. hed hug his pillow while sleeping

- akito is a trans guy because i said so

- an really really really likes dogs

- kohanes parents are a bit older, like in their mid 50s. also im not sure which one but i like to think that one of them used to be very shy and anxious like her in their teen years but grew up to be a chill and secure adult so they understand kohane and are patient w her

- ena finds out how akito treated kohane at first and gets really mad at him for it and comes up w some punishment (even though kohane repeatedly says its fine and that akito has been nothing but kind to her since they teamed up)

[absolutebl]

(Asking for recs bc you're the only one who gives me exactly what I want)

I don't know if what im looking for even exists, but I'm gonna try asking anyway. I'm looking for something that gives me the vibes of Beyond Evil, but outwardly queer (implied is fine too, ig), or Hannibal, The Devil Judge, High-school frenemy etc. Basically morally grey/unhinged freaks who would die/kill for each other. And I know you don't watch censored Chinese shows but I absolutely adore Word of Honor, The Untamed and Justice in the Dark. All of them involve someone who believes they cannot be redeemed being loved.

I've watched Triage and 4 minutes and I liked those too bc it's very plot heavy and the romance sorta happens as part of the plot. I do not like MAME, or anything adjacent.

Again idek if this ask is even possible. And I apologise for being all over the place. Save me, absolutebl, save me.

Hum, morality chain characters I think is what you're after. Or even murder husbands.

So have you tried SCI Mysteries AKA S.C.I (2018)?

Old guard partly Hong Kong produced censored Chinese BL. They pretend they're something else but they married. Back in the day I found it on YouTube but not sure who officially hosts it now. I would call it Beyond Evil x Trapped + police procedural.

Have you considered Addicted? Odd choice but I suspect it might work for you. Or Where Your Eyes Linger, if you're okay with high school characters.

And there is Long Time No See of course. You should watch that immediately if you haven't already.

Finally, there is Guardian (2018) to consider.

It's an odd creature with extremely chewy world building, but it is very much in the vein of the stuff you like. Not exactly those tropes though. It's so hard to describe. Be warned, you looking at 40 eps of 45 min each. (I think it still holds the crown as longest BL.) It is a BL, just very censored. Still if you want to be distracted for a very long time this might be what you're looking for.

Other's I can think of off the top of my head:

Laws of Attraction* (have you seen this? It certainly has some characters with that perfect unhinged quality to them)

Manner of Death

Lovely Writer (maybe a little)

KinnPorsche maybe?

The Eclipse

3 Will Be Free

Big Dragon

Not Me

The Heart Killers

My Stand-In

The Thai ones simply have less of an edge to them. They will go sappy and only 1/2 of the couple is morally grey but they're there if your desperate.

HIStory Obsessed

HIStory 3: Trapped

HIStory 4: Close to You has a crazy side couple with this dynamic.

Kiseki: Dear to Me (definitely the sides)

I have a sinking suspicion I'm missing something from Taiwan. These also will have less edge.

Tien Bromance from Vietnam has some of this quality to it but it's quite raw.

Some cray cray from Japan:

Happy of the End

Double Mints (if you wanna go unhinged and dark just go there?)

Same Difference AKA Docchi Mo Docchi (the office version) and then there is Beloved Enemy from China, an even more messy office version, and China's Capture Lover which is a nicer version.

Dangerous Drugs of Sex AKA Sei no Gekiyaku (the ultra kinky version)

Dominant Yakuza and Wimpy Corporate Slave AKA Ore-sama Yakuza to Hetare Shachiku: Kuni wo Koeta Jingi Naki Dekiai (it's short tho)

But those are all, ya know, Japan being all Japanish about it. Gotta like their style which is very different from the Korean and Chinese stuff you seem to like best.

Okay hopefully something works? Let me know, okay? I'm curious to see if I was right on anything.

Your Life As A Tokyo Jujutsu High Background Student

| Megumi x Reader | Reader's third year & Gender-neutral |

You had not known Fushiguro Megumi for very long, perhaps a few months at best, but you had already grown fond of the boy. That little sea urchin, with his aloof glare and standoffish body language, was always so irritated with the world. 

He definitely didn’t seem to like you much in the beginning… if he liked anyone at all. He had that palpable “leave me alone” vibe - spiky hair hiding his face, arms habitually crossed in an invisible barrier, one-word answers to attempts at small talk. Anyone else would have taken the hint after a few rebuffs and kept their distance. But not you. 

There was a wariness there, a carefully contained fragility that resonated with your own. You recognized that cold glare all too well, having worn it like armor yourself once upon a time, before Gojo had broken through your walls with his irritating persistence and arrogant cheerfulness.

You knew—beneath the hostile exterior, Megumi was just a boy thrown alone into the cruel world of jujutsu, trying desperately to survive. You could relate all too painfully. So you persisted. Offering your quiet presence like a comforting blanket, you'd hover at the edges of Megumi's personal bubble, reading, snacking, giving him the wide berth he clearly craved. Never demanding attention. During meal time, you would add an extra pudding cup to your tray, then silently offload it into Megumi’s as you plopped down next to him, talking lightly about Gojo’s recent antics as you ate.  In the library, you'd claim the seat beside him, the two of you reading in a comfortable silence broken only by the occasional turn of a page. Now and then you simply occupied nearby space, tapping idly at your phone screen whenever he sought out an empty corner to avoid company. 

Then one day between training sessions he fell into step beside you, wordlessly holding out an ice-cold bottle of mint chocolate milk. Your favorite. From that small olive branch on, a new ease settled into your interactions. His rejection of the pudding cups turned into acceptance turned into quietly waiting for them every day. Rolling eyes at your appearance in the library softened into furtive peeks over book spines to see if you’d come to keep him company. He held himself stiffly at first when you claimed the armchair adjacent to his in the common room, but soon began leaning into your idle chatter on curse techniques.

Most times the two of you spent together were still in silence rather than actual conversation. But the quietness somehow felt warmer now, more intimate than isolating. And every so often, when he thought you weren’t paying attention, you’d notice the flicker of a barely-there smile softening Megumi’s face at something you’d said. In those moments, you felt a fierce affection and protectiveness swell brightly in your chest...

You are a third year student at Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School.

You are Gojo’s most spoiled third year. Not that he has many options, since your classmates have all been suspended.

You are Nanami’s most favorite jujutsu sorcerer thanks to your mutual distaste of the jujutsu world and burning desire for early retirement.

You are Shoko’s most beloved unofficial assistant who does all her paperwork. Don’t let Principal Yaga hear about that though.

You are the first years’ most adored senpai, because Gojo has the audacity to dump most if not all of his teaching responsibilities on you.

But most importantly, you are a background character. Sometimes, they bring you along. Sometimes, you do your own things in the background while watching them doing important, heroic things.

You are no protagonist. You are just here for the ride.

🗝️ Note: I of course had the most difficulty WITH my bias. But thank you again for the ask drift partner 😘 @chans-room

Disclaimers: This is a work of fiction; I do not own any of the idols depicted below.

Channie - maroon, maybe a sheer one piece with lace embroidery over the nipples to tease him, full garters and matching stockings. I can't get around the thought that this man has a thigh kink.

Lino - a lovely mint green, it's simple satin two-piece set because he doesn't want any distractions from you. But it needs to be tangibly appealing to this little cat, textures are important.

Changbin - idk why, but I imagine him liking a bright purple (like rave purple), almost orchid, something silky, accompanied by black fishnets.

Hyunjin - the set needs to be extravagant, lots of layers to it, removable pieces, peekaboo's, the color...hmmm. Hyun gives classic black vibes, but the designer makes up for the simplicity of the color.

Felix - an icy blue, don't murder me but I am thinking quality velvet teddy with a dramatic floor length gauzy robe that as matching blue fur trim. (on my Marth May Whovier shit again, drift partner)

Han - bright red, strappy two piece that connects to itself, and connects to a choker around the neck. Han loves the straps and gets a little flustered when he struggles to remove them (sorry @minttangerines for adding this delu on a Friday)

Seungmin - fuck it, he's getting lavender. a simple lacey bra and panty set and a matching silk robe when you both get a little shy.

Babybread - light pink, true light pink and not the trending Barbie pink. thinking a long line bra with lighter pink paneling and obvious boning. adorned with flowers.

other timkonbart-adjacent thoughts that i entertain myself with: the specific vibe of romantic timkon + queerplatonic konbart (who simply don't label it bc they don't feel the need. kon is bart's favorite jungle gym and bart is kon's silly rabbit. what else is there to say?)

kon and bart are just at each other's houses and homes constantly. max loves to talk gardening and farm life with kon, who passes on ma's recipes and tips for his kitchen garden. bart offloads chives (and cucumbers. and zucchini. and eggplants. max for the love of god don't you dare plant that mint) onto kon, who is more than happy to bring by some offerings from the kent family farmer's market stall. bart shows up at the farm all the time just to hang out with kon when he's bored. ma loves to feed him and he loves to eat. it works out incredibly well for the both of them. bart will help himself to kon's closet and sleep in his bed even if kon himself isn't there. this tickles ma pink. at least once kon has made what he calls "the most bitchin' peach cobbler of all time", courtesy of ma's recipe, and bart takes one bite and his entire face lights up and he just launches himself across the room like "bro this is so good i am kissing you on the mouth" and then he does. he's so very aroace but physical affection is good and great and frankly, the peach cobbler is just really that bitchin.

all of which is to say: when kon finally is like soooo ma. im uh. dating one of my friends now :> she's So confused when it's not bart. like... oh, it's... it's not? oh i just thought-- no no tim is very sweet, he fixed the tractor up so well for us, of course i love him! i just, well, i thought you and bart... i've certainly never seen bart perched strangely on the rooftop at half past four in the morning, is all. but you should definitely bring tim around more! that boy is too thin we need to feed him--

11 & 12, 16 & 17 for the belly ask game please!

11. Do you have any favorite words or phrases relating to the belly?

The word "stomach" itself kinda wrecks me tbh. ^^ "Swollen" is probably my favorite adjective, and "bulging" and "aching" and probably my favorite verbs hehe. And even though they're pretty basic, the phrases "so full" and "very full" can be really really good.

12. Do you like upset tummies? What kinds of scenarios are your favorites?

I would say upset tummies are an Interest-Adjacent Enjoyable Thing, but not actually kinky in and of themselves to me! Like, if a character has an upset tummy from eating too much, that adds the appeal of a kinky scenario for me. But if a character has an upset tummy for other reasons, the vibe is more hurt/comfort or whumpy. Which I still enjoy! but not in a kinky way, y'feel?

16. Are there any guilty pleasures that you don't tend to share as much?

My guiltiest pleasure is emeto as a result of eating too much. ^^' I tend not to explore it as much 'cause I'm still a bit shy about it, but uh. somebody struggling to keep a very large meal down or just feeling sick from how they've eaten is Big Fire.

17. What's something you wish you saw more of?

Is it cheating if I answer Stuffing Content In General? ^^' I feel like the scene is a lot slower than it used to be.

To answer seriously though -- I wish I could find stories with intentional feeding that isn't tied to a dom/sub dynamic. Dom/sub just isn't my thing, but it's pretty much impossible to find any feeding fics that don't frame the act through that lens or use associated tropes and dialogue. My ideal dynamic is more like a collaboration -- the Eating Character wants to eat, the Feeding Character wants to help them. That's basically why I have the Soothing Room in ginger & mint, I'm realizing!

#5. MINT JAMS (Live), by CASIOPEA (1982) 🔁

This is me soft-launching city pop on this blog before the inevitable flood of it as the weather warms up. Though not really a city pop artist, their sound and association to that era in Japanese music has kinda kept Casiopea adjacent to that genre in its western rediscovery in recent years. I felt like going back and revisiting Mint Jams recently because it is an album I've somewhat neglected, despite how beloved a record it is. I always took to their 1979 self-titled debut more than Mint Jams, but I think after digging into it more, I've finally seen the light—the gloopy, gooey, mint-green flavored light.

Mint Jams is the culmination of four virtuosos at the absolute pinnacle of their career, distilled into this compilation of a couple live performances. If nothing else about this music stood out to you, the incredible play and musicianship on display absolutely should. The solos alone demonstrate so much creativity and command over each of their instruments, but the thing that impresses me the most is just how in the pocket they always are, at all times. It is so easy to forget that this is a live performance while listening, and that's about the biggest compliment I could give. This is not the work of dozens or hundreds of takes, this is all one masterful run through, performed on all instruments, together, at the same time. There's so much energy, and there's this air of looseness to each songs and the performances—and yet, every note, every beat is so unbelievably locked in and perfectly placed. I sincerely don't know how you can accomplish both, and above all else I admire Mint Jams and Casiopea in general for this magic blend of fun, freedom, and precision.

I'm not particularly the type of person to fawn over an artist or a record just because the performances are impressive, though. I can appreciate that just fine, but if they don't weaponize their talents to craft and perform interesting songs that hook me, I'm not going to enjoy it. Fortunately for me, Casiopea knows how to craft a good tune. The tried and true formula for these songs is to craft the main section—the head, if you'll allow me to be obnoxious about it—that then opens up the floor for a lot of soloing, before bringing it back to the head, and then wrapping it up all nice. As much as I do like a lot of the soloing on this project, and there is a lot of it, I truly love the main melodies most of all. Asayake, the second track, has a perfect lead melody. I have had it drilled into my head over the past two weeks, and I'd let it keep drilling me for two more months if it wanted to. I can't explain its magic with words, it simply speaks to my soul. Midnight Rendezvous and Tears of the Star are also standouts in this aspect for me.

The one thing that truly ties this entire album together for me is that unbelievable bass from Tetsuo Sakurai. What an undeniable stud of a musician. This man was put on this planet to play bass. Genuinely one of the most consistently outstanding and impressive performances I've ever heard on any instrument, on any album. His sense of melody and rhythm, whether he's impressing with perfectly crafted licks or laying the foundation for others to shine, absolutely unparalleled. The way he consistently slots in so perfectly with the vibe and elevates everyone around him at all times, astonishing. His playing is what drives pretty much all of these tunes forward, and the passion and personality that bleeds from every aspect of his performance is an irreplaceable contribution to this sound. In my mind, Tetsuro Sakurai is the lifeblood of Mint Jams. Just listen to Midnight Rendezvous and try to convince me otherwise.

While most of these songs are pretty clearly superior to their studio counterparts one way or another, I think there are two songs here that suffer a little bit, just by virtue of being a live performance. Time Limit, despite probably being Sakurai's absolute most impressive bass performance on the entire album, does lack the overall punch of the original. I really, really miss the horn section that the studio release had. Tears of the Star, though not as noticeable as on Time Limit, also does feel like it's missing a little bit of the perfect buildup that the studio recording was able to concoct. I feel really, really greedy for suggesting this, but man, I wish they were able to get another musician or two on stage at these shows, just to fill out the sound a little more. They sound remarkably full for just a quartet, and I'm sure introducing other musicians would have risked suffocating the magic that this lineup of Casiopea was able to capture, but I just wish the sound was a little bit fuller. I know that's sacrilege, I'll be retreating to the mountains to think about my actions.

There is truly so much to love about Mint Jams. There are maybe a couple songs off their self-titled record that I wish had found their way onto this tracklist, but I can thoroughly say I've been convinced on Mint Jams being even better than their great studio debut. What a great, consistent run of songs. Even the songs that don't fully outdo their original recordings sound great, and are impressive feats of musicianship if nothing else. I've seen a small contingent of people say that if they could go back in time to any moment in history, they would choose to be at the Chuo Taikan Hall, circa February 1982, in order to bare witness to these magnificent performances in the flesh. I honestly can't blame them.

[junewild]

Okay ask game! if I was a perfume what would my top notes, mid notes and base notes be? And for extra credit what would the bottle look like? 🤍🌀 So I did an absurd amount of (amateur) research to answer this. For the base note we're going to want to use Oakmoss. Oakmoss is derived from a type of lichen that grows on oak trees. It has a deep, earthy and woody aroma with some leather and moss undertones. I chose Oakmoss out of the 10 most popular base tones because I was searching for something woody, but a majority of the bases were woody-smoky, woody-sweet, woody-spicy, or not woody at all! Obviously we are angling for woody to represent that autumn complexion and to represent the PNW. The base note is the note that lingers the longest, so once the top and mid notes fade out, the scent lingers woody and earthen and natural like the woods around you.

For top notes, your choices are largely some-variation-on-citrus, mint, or basil. I discarded mints and basil immediately as being too on-the-nose with the wooden and earthy base notes. Too green. From here, it's decided on which flavor of citrus. I landed on Neroli.

Neroli is derived from the flowers of the bitter orange tree. It's sweet and floral, with delicate citrus and honey-like notes. It's considered soothing and calming! I chose this for a couple reasons. I think the honey note probably best fits you out of the multiple citrus-adjacent fragrances, since it has a touch of that deep, grounded scent to mix with the woody and earthen tones of the Oakmoss, but it's still bright and sweet for a first impression that matches your bright first impression. For middle notes, we're looking for something to tie together the woody, earthen mossy Oakmoss with citrusy, honey floral Neroli. Middle notes seem to be largely comprised of two categories: Flowers and Spice. I dismissed the flowers out of hand, most of them are extremely delicate scents I don't think fit you at all or clash with the vibe we already have going on (geraniums? lotus? nah.). Plus I have a hateboner for lavender in general because people sneak it into everything and it's HORRIBLE for your skin.

From here we have spices to select from. I think it'd be pretty easy to go with cinnamon or cloves or ginger, but those didn't feel quite right. They give me the impression of homey-ness (and pie, obviously) although I think the warm tones from spice are definitely in the right direction to tie together the honey-sweet and earthen scents already going on here. What I actually chose was Cardamom.

Cardamom is derived from cardamom seeds (shocking, I know) and it's considered slightly floral, woody, and has a hint of citrus. Perfect for tying in the woody Oakmoss and the floral-citrus Neroli! Cardamom is also sweet, spicy, and warm, which I think is the perfect extra layer to carry this fragrance. It's also considered invigorating and energizing, which I think merges well with the calming top and base scents to give depth and complexity and keeps the mix from being one-note. I also think the spice fits much better for you as a person since it's a little less run-of-the-mill than pie spices, while still being warm and spicy.

So here we have a scent that transitions from flowery, citrus-honey Neroli into flowery, citrus-woody Cardamom, to woody-green, earthen Oakmoss over the duration. Inviting and sweet, invigorating and spicy, and calming and down-to-earth overall.

(If you want to find perfumes that match this description you can go here: https://www.fragrantica.com/ingredients-search/ and input the specific ingredients. The perfumes it generates however likely include additional ingredients and more investigation would be required.) As for the bottle for this, I'd think something tall and slim, clear with a honey-gold topper, with an embossed leaf or vine along the side with the name. A more elegant version of something like this

tiffany i would be on my knees proposing rn if you hadn't already been so clear that you do not want in on my group marriage. but i just need you to know that you are my favorite person in the entire world bar none & my best friend & a genuine fucking delight to everyone who knows you & your research skills are extremely fucking sexy. i am genuinely considering having this made up into a perfume.

to specifically respond:

oakmoss is absolutely Thee correct base scent, thank you. woody-soil is EXACTLY right.

mint & basil are wonderful scents, but they aren't MY scents. i absolutely tend toward citruses. neroli is def one of my favorites, right up there w lemon.

you are 110% correct on the middle notes. i despise floral scents with an absolute passion. they aren't allowed in my house.

(ps: these are exactly the scents that max picked, pretty much word for word. so if both of you say it, then i can't imagine how anyone could disagree)

The Mindful Side of Vaping: Exploring Mental Health and the KadoBar Experience

In today’s fast-paced world, mental health is more important than ever. While there are countless tools and techniques for managing stress, anxiety, and emotional well-being, some people turn to lifestyle rituals—like sipping tea, going for a walk, or even vaping—to create moments of calm. Among the brands making waves in the wellness-adjacent vape space is KadoBar, known for its rich flavor profiles, sleek devices, and modern innovation like the Kado Bar Vintage Edition 20000.

I’ll explore how small rituals like vaping can fit into a mindful lifestyle and how you can buy KadoBar online to elevate your moments of relaxation.

1. Mental Health and the Power of Everyday Rituals

Mental health doesn’t always depend on big lifestyle overhauls—sometimes, it's the little things that make a difference. Having a go-to activity that helps you pause, breathe, and unwind can be surprisingly therapeutic. For some, that’s vaping.

While vaping is not a medical treatment, the act of pausing to take a breath, especially with a familiar flavor or calming aroma, can help anchor you in the moment. This small habit may complement other tools for mental wellness, such as journaling or deep breathing.

2. Vaping for Stress Relief: What to Know

While nicotine is a stimulant, the ritual of vaping itself can feel relaxing for some users. Choosing your favorite Kado Bar flavor, taking a slow inhale, and enjoying the taste can help shift your focus away from anxious thoughts and into the present moment.

That’s especially true when using nicotine-free or low-nicotine versions of vapes, which are becoming increasingly popular among those looking to reduce their intake while keeping the soothing sensation of vaping.

3. Introducing the Kado Bar Vintage Edition 20000

One of the most exciting devices for Kado fans right now is the Kado Bar Vintage Edition 20000. This ultra-modern, long-lasting disposable vape offers a stunning 20,000 puffs, USB-C fast charging, and a stylish vintage-inspired design that fits comfortably in your hand.

Why it stands out:

Massive puff count = fewer interruptions

Premium mesh coil for smoother flavor

Rechargeable for max efficiency

Sleek retro style meets modern performance

It’s the perfect companion for those daily moments of mindfulness or mental resets during a busy day.

4. The Role of Flavor in Mindful Vaping

Believe it or not, flavor plays a big role in emotional comfort. Certain tastes and scents can trigger positive memories or sensations, which can have a calming effect on the brain.

That’s why the rich variety of Kado Bar flavors is such a bonus. From fruity to icy to nostalgic candy profiles, the sensory experience of vaping with Kado is truly immersive.

5. Top Kado Bar Flavors to Elevate Your Mood

If you’re looking to create a calm, satisfying vape experience, these Kado Bar flavors are worth trying:

Grape Kool Aid – Nostalgic, sweet, and comforting

Peach Mango Ice – Tropical with a cool exhale

Blue Razz Ice – Tart, tangy, and mentally refreshing

Cool Mint – Crisp, clean, and clarifying

Watermelon Bubblegum – Sweet and playful, great for a light-hearted vibe

Each flavor offers a different mood or mental effect, making it easy to find one that suits your state of mind.

6. Why People Buy KadoBar Online

When you're juggling work, school, or managing your mental health, convenience is everything. Many users choose to buy KadoBar online because:

It's fast and hassle-free

More flavor options and models are available

You can read reviews before buying

No need to visit a store if you're having an off day

Online shopping also makes it easier to try newer models, like the Vintage Edition 20000, without waiting for local stock updates.

7. How to Incorporate Vaping Into a Mindful Routine

Looking to bring more mindfulness into your day? Here are a few simple ways to use your KadoBar as part of a wellness check-in:

Step outside for a few minutes with your favorite flavor

Pair it with breathing exercises—inhale slowly, exhale intentionally

Use it as a “break cue”—step away from stress to refocus

Create a flavor ritual—pick a flavor that fits your mood each morning

It’s not about the nicotine—it’s about creating space in your day for presence and self-care.

8. Mental Health Reminder: Balance Is Key

While tools like vaping can provide temporary calm or help you reset, they’re not a replacement for professional mental health support. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, or overwhelming stress, don’t hesitate to reach out to a therapist or mental health provider.

KadoBar can be part of your self-care toolkit, but true mental wellness often involves a mix of healthy habits, support systems, and mindful practices.

9. Final Thoughts: KadoBar as a Flavorful Pause

In a world that rarely slows down, KadoBar offers more than just vapor—it offers a flavorful pause. Whether you're reaching for the Kado Bar Vintage Edition 20000 to unwind or grabbing your favorite flavor during a mental break, KadoBar is all about enhancing those quiet moments.

So next time you’re overwhelmed, remember: sometimes, even something as small as taking a flavorful breath can help you feel a little more grounded.

hi ive been binging your blog a lot recently. i rlly adore the sheer effort you've given to these dumbass fucking characters that otherwise get such little people even attempting to appreciate or engage with them beyond very shallow depths. as someone who only really got into the p4 games relatively recently (2022. my only remembered experience with the series beforehand was like a couple episodes of the the p4anim years ago and playing p5 in 2016/2017) and kind of being shell-shocked by how characters like marie and teddie and namatame were perceived by the overall fanbase once i started engaging with it more i really appreciate all the writing and analysis and art and other shit you do for them. even the gas station attendant, a character i overlooked initially, i've come to love because of all the time and energy you put into picking them apart like a dead frog in a science class

uh yea idfk i feel generally vindicated by seeing the way you characterize these bitches. especially marie as someone who felt like a lot of her interesting aspects were evaporated by the fandom (somewhat because of p4ga i feel but but still) and wanted to see more silly fanart of her (and shumarie/soumarie/whatecvrer the fuck that wasn't just kind of surface level romance becuz i rlly do love their dynamic w how i see bancho in my head. idiots who dont know how to properly express themselves w one repressing themselves to adopt a likable persona and the other unable to shut the fuck up much to their own detriment. im not gonna get over that fucking "marie makes everyday sunny for him" post ever i think) so uh keep on keeping on and ill continue to like your posts and something

anyway dumb stupid cringe fucking rant over. i apologize if i come off like a loser i dont use this website and idk the general tumblr etiquette. im pretty sure shit like this shouldnt even go here but . dont need to respond to this i just wanted to yell into the void cuz i appreciate this account. rest of this will just be panels of marie and teddie and bancho from some of the p4g anthologies i own that i wanted to share in the off chance that you also dont already own said anthologies n have seen them befor. these r only from the last ID antho and the dengeki one because those r the only 2 i have proper pictures of

hai i read this ages ago and i wanna get back to it by saying youre so awesome possum forever and ever dont worry about your ettiquette because getting 3 essay worthy paragraphs of you talking is basically everyone ive met in the tumblr nation

another thing i remember is that a bestie also loved your offerings esp the last one because those two look so lalala AUAHUAHA okay i should answer this ask properly now that i have the time 🏃🏃🏃🏃

can we give it up for the bingers and blog skimmers !?!?!?! you guys are such an interesting breed i remember trying to do that in 2018 i can already recall the thrill going through my blood im so honored to see people doing that and moreso coming to me to tell me about it WAHAUHAHA 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

this gas station (blog) really is catered to the niche market of all time also because the way my brain is wired to just go in the dustiest nooks and corners of a community and thrive and live there. i AM the bug you see when you lift up the rock . hai . i'll do anything for these poor poor characters being tossed around like hot potato with people who dont bother understanding thing or even try to pick them up at all. also im getting such a kick every time someone tells me i got them into appreciating the attendant or even iznmi more OR in a different way. thats why im here bros . me when i do my JOB !!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

the way fandom handles shipping has always irked me because theres just SO much you can do with two characters than just make them hold hands. what if there was blood invovled, you know . /starts pacing around the room / you know im glad you know the know it's so cool you know /shaking you/ im glad i have a post that's affected you so much like i thought it was just a silly caption at the time and seeing it after 2 or 3 years is like "YEAHH i cooked this " and im glad you brought it to me hehehe

i hope this gas station brings you joy and you keep coming back for more etc etc and please know i really am happy to see you around in whatever branch you show up at 🫡🫡🫡 /explordes

5 and 9 for Ronnie and Foxy both

ask game (x)

5. What’s one hill your OC will die on (anything from a guiding moral position to a strong opinion about combining mint and chocolate)?

Foxy will die on any hill for any minor reason if she's pissed off enough. She'll start fights over the most inane things- Where she wants to walk on the sidewalk and what chair she wants to sit on and if that one shoe on display is mauve or magenta. She doesn't even care that much, but she does want a fight.

Ronnie is just this.

9. How do they fare in cold or hot climates, and which do they prefer?

Foxy hates the cold severely. Will curse out the sun for being too weak and will curse the wind for being too strong and put some thighs under her skirt (rolled up until it resembles a fabric belt, btw) before whining and whimpering until someone buys her a warm beverage. If Avery offers her one mulled wine, she's immediately ordering another.

Ronnie dislikes both extreme heat and cold, but hates the heat a bit more due to her tendency to dress in baggy, grunge-adjacent clothes. Not that she has any problem in just taking them off, but she does think it kills the vibe a little bit to leave nothing to the imagination.

The Bats & Birds and Their Favorite Ice-creams + Reasonings:

Alfred: Moose Tracks (People who say his favorite would be plain vanilla/vanilla bean are my mortal enemies. Idc if they're comic writers or whatever, Alfred is so not that guy. Moose tracks, for those who don't know, has a vanilla ice-cream base, with fudge swirls, and chocolate covered peanut butter cups. It's something fun for him, but not too "wild" if you know what I mean.)

Bruce: Rocky Road (Idk man...vibes? I hate the almonds in it but I feel like he likes almonds, like a lot? <- Random hc that is. Plus, whenever any of the others try to say, "Rocky Road? The nuts are gross, why??" Bruce can just add on, "And there's marshmallows.")

Kate: Strawberry Cheescake (This one is just a lot of association at play. Red is her accent? color and also just, her color, and pink is adjacent to red, and Kate seems like such a cheesecake elitist, sorry Kate Kane fans, I'm not retracting my truth, still love the woman, but yeah. Cheesecake is good an all, but it's definitely not my favorite thing in the world, sorry cheescake fans.)

Babs: Pistachio (....VIBES. Yeah, that's my reasoning for the most part. Also, it matches her eyes :^) Also, also, it's so fun to imagine her and Dick having these intense arguments and "wars" over "the better green ice-cream". Spoiler: Babs wins every time and she's the one who starts the conflict because for one, she finds it entertaining, two, she despises mint chocolate chip ice-cream, three, she likes drama lol.)

Dick: Mint Chocolate Chip (Specifically the green colored one. It's one of my top 5, plus, it fits his vibe in a way, it's wacky and bright. Also, it seems to be a somewhat widespread hc for him? I've come across a few fics where it is his favorite ice-cream flavor so glad I'm not alone in this. Also, I imagine he mixes together Mint Chocolate Chip, and everyone elses' favorite ice-creams in a bowl when he feels like it. It of course causes disgust, confusion, and chaos. The only ones of the others' ice-creams that are excluded are Pistachio, Vanilla Bean, and Rainbow Sherbert.)

Jason: Gelato (He strikes me as a Gelato over ice-cream guy. He likes to pick fights over it, a fellow seeker of the drama, like Babs lol. If he were to eat ice-cream ice-cream, probably Pistachio like Babs to egg on Dick for it, or Butter Pecan. I love the hc of him having like, Dad/Old man taste and this is my Dad's favorite ice-cream. Also, if anyone tries to egg on him for it, like, "You are such an old man." "Pecans? Those are gross---" he just adds on, "And carmel." I also like him being similar to Bruce in the overarching narrative way, but also in the little ways way.

Carrie: Rainbow Sherbert (IDK MAN IT’S JUST THE VIBE MATCHING IM PICKING UP. It's colorful, a little loud, a little chaotic, a little bit of a niche one, not a lot of people like it, me included, anecdotal evidence and all that jazz.)

Cass: Birthday Cake | Rocky Road | Cotton Candy (I love the hc? that Cass likes a lot of the things Bruce and or Steph like. <- Babs too, but I have a feeling Cass doesn't like Pistachio nuts for some reason? However, she also seems like a Birthday Cake ice-cream sort of gal. It's fun, it's colorful, it's an interesting contrast to her typical colors and Bat persona, and perhaps a little bit more reflective of her actual personality. When she has the time and a craving, she mixes all three ice-creams together, something she picked up from Dick, and it generally grosses out/confuses/and "angers" people. "Angers" meaning people jokingly get mad over it, like how you pick sides for mundane things and playfully, but veering toward seriously, defend it.)

Steph: Cotton Candy (Another of my personal top 5. Specifically the Thrifty brand. Peak childhood memories are of me mixing this ice cream together---its a sort of marbled thing with hot pink and a vibrant blue---to make it purple. We all know Steph's appreciation of the color and I also can just see her liking cotton candy flavored things.)

Tim: Black Cherry (Another of my top 5. Again...it's mostly for the vibes. Also, there's this really good---and I mean really good, a.k.a. it made me sob sob---fic called "cherry trees in your ribs (cherry trees in mine)" by klixxy on Ao3 that's about Tim & Dick talking about the time where Bruce "died" aka was lost in the time stream or whatever it was. It's a Tim-centric fic and the imagery is so beautiful and vivid, the line delivery makes my bones ache, and it, in my opinion, so perfectly encapsulates the relationship of being so incredibly close to a family memeber, only for something to happen that alters everything and causes that closeness, that relationship you loved and cared for, to never be quite the same. I have so much more to say about it, but this post is supposed to be about ice-cream, so if you have the time, read it and form your own opinion.)

Duke: Vanilla Bean (Are you getting tired of the "idk man...vibes match" answer? Well too bad, cuz that's also my reasoning here. Also, I love the idea of anyone bashing Duke for liking Vanilla Bean ice-cream all like, "Vanilla bean?" "That's so boringgg---" only for Duke to just, absolutely demolish them for their ice-cream flavor, no matter what it is. I'm talking, he's giving insults to these people that years down the line they still remember.)

Damian: Neapolitan (Uh...vibes. SORRY. But uh, it probably annoys him to a significant degree when the layering of all the flavors aren't evenly divided. His favorite sections, from most to least, are Strawberry, Chocolate, Vanilla. Damian's also probably a Vanilla Bean > Vanilla kind of person, so he has words about the vanilla ice-cream typically included in Neapolitan. Upon further consideration, maybe he'd like Matcha flavored ice-cream as well.)

INCREDIBLE, hard agree on all points. I’ve had Church on my tlt playlist from the get-go but always thought of it as a Harrow song so now I need to re-experience it as a John bop. I’m a semi-ironic 3OH!3 fan (unfortunately) but never considered it for tlt… Now that you’ve opened my eyes though, Love 2012 is absolutely my newly-minted-cult-leader!John anthem, especially the lines “flash flash television, give me your new religion�� and “cha-ching for your soul, everything must go, kiss kiss on the lips of the apocalypse” which like. C’mon.

oh love it as a harrow song too. i think you've got to funnel the 3OH!3s and adjacent into tlt mix. it is the meme energy a mix deserves. you now can't convince me that john & co (puppeted bodies very much included) didn't all do the fucking cha cha slide one of these cappuccino tuesdays. you're selling me on love 2012 and this whole thing has exposed me to the fact that 3OH!3 is still, inexplicably, making music and so i'm just going to guess, from vibes alone, vampire's diet is relevant here too.

SEMI-ANNUAL SALE HAUL! part of my Christmas gifts from my partner was taking me in and letting me pick out whatever i wanted at SAS ❤️🥰

my reviews so far:

Pumpkin Pie Pocketbac Holder: i wanted this around fall but never got it so i was glad to see it on sale. it’s super cute! 🥧

Pumpkin Car Scent Clip: i’ve been wanting more holiday car clips so i decided to pick this up for next fall 🎃

Pumpkin Apple Room Spray: one of my favorite scents ever, and a fall staple! i had to get a room spray of this since they didn’t have it when i tried to this past fall. it’s a warm pumpkin and apple and my favorite scent as far as candles go at Bath & Body Works! 🎃🍎

Strawberry Snowflakes Hand Soap: grabbed this hand soap to use in february for Valentine’s Day. i think it would make a great scent for that. if you’re curious about the scent check out my previous post!

Love Always Wins Candle: i do really love this scent for summer and never got it in the candle! the packaging is also so cute for Pride Month! if you’re unfamiliar with the scent it has sangria fruitiness to it with an ocean-woodsy note as well🌈🏳️‍🌈

Summer Melody Dry Shampoo: i’ve been looking for a new dry shampoo lately so i decided to give this a try and it’s fantastic ! i’ll probably make another post to talk about it in full. the scent is honeydew and vanilla and it has a very warm sandy vibe to it 🌞

Sun Ripened Raspberry: i had to get this for my mom, she used it when i was a kid so one SAS i got her one. she said it was good but she wasn’t crazy about it but then used the whole bottle in less than a year! guess she liked it more than she remembered 😂 it’s a sweet and perfumey raspberry scent and a classic but retired scent at Bath & Body Works ❣️

Forever Red: i have been obsessed with this scent since eighth grade when it came out for the first time. it’s a sophisticated night-out type scent but softer than the other scents i describe that way. the pomegranate and floral scents are most prominent but it has a rum and oak that give it a sultry vibe as well. 💋

Bright Christmas Morning: was bummed to not get this one in the body spray but it was sold out when i got there so i grabbed it in the lotion. they really did well capturing the scent of the home fragrance in a body care with this one. it’s fruity but keeps the holiday vibe to it. the blood orange note shines through and it’s amazing 🍊🎄

Black Tie: this one is definitely cologney and sophisticated. a night-out scent for sure as well. the sage gives it an almost aromatherapy vibe on the dry down 🤵🏼‍♀️

Winter Cherry Blossom: if you’re looking for a Japanese Cherry Blossom adjacent scent, this isn’t it. i’ve heard this one is like a winter spin on Cherry Blossom. it’s very old-timey perfumey, with a wintery floral scent. 🌸❄️

Sapphire Moon: this one is much more bright than the spray, the pear shines through more than the other notes 🌕

Pink Lily & Bamboo: this one was on my list with a question mark for SAS but as soon as i smelled it i knew i had to get it! it has the same bright floral vibe as Candied Violet Sorbet, with a strong bamboo underlying that gives it a truly planty scent. i love it and can’t wait to use it this spring and summer 💐🎋

Sport: my lovely partner picked out one thing for himself throughout the whole store! i had a feeling he’d like this one though. it’s citrus and mint with woodsy undertones on the dry-down 🍋🍊🏀

Winter Candy Apple: a holiday staple, and mine is about gone! it’s a fruity floral, but the cinnamon gives it a spicy holiday feel. 🍎

Wrapped in Vanilla: my Blush Cardigan obsession led me to ignore this one initially, but it’s very nice. if you want just a straight-up toasty vanilla creamy scent this is the one for you! 🍨

Coffee & Whiskey: picked up a backup, because i’m obsessed. it’s the perfect spiked coffee scent and half of my family is obsessed with it as well! ☕️🥃

Brown Sugar & Fig: a staple in my collection and my body cream was running low. this is a retired scent from Bath & Body Works that i grew up using from my moms collection when i was young! it’s a favorite of mine in the fall. it’s a warm sugary scent with notes of fig, coconut milk, and brown sugar 🍂

Blackberry & Basil: this one was sold out in the body spray as well which was a bummer but at least i got it in the cream! it’s a little different from the hand sanitizer that comes out in the fall, with a more floral, herby vibe to it but still has a sweet blackberry note! 🌿
