31+50 Days of Friendship

JotaKak; Excerpt

[...]

Jotaro was still glaring down at him; Maybe egging him on when Noriaki is still wheezing like a broken kettle was the wrong move. Not that Noriaki was trying to make the right move. He wasn't making any moves.

Kakyoin ‘Noriaki’ Tenmei had been born a finely tuned machine. He was composed of thin metal and thick wires and was built to endure stress, pressure and heat, but eventually something had to give. The metal is now bent out of shape, the copper of his wiring frayed and the locus operandi that is home in his casing has stopped functioning as intended.

No good or best moves have been made in a long time. Now it was all about moving at all.

Jotaro was still glaring down at him.

[emeraldxsplash]

I know I also mention this a lot but... Noriaki is not especially well composed, emotionally. He actually struggles a lot to handle strong emotions. We see several times in the story where heightened states of arousal make him start doing very stupid and reckless things. It isn't hard to yank his composure out from underneath him.

He isn't used to feeling such a broad range of things on such a large scale. He isn't used to caring about people to the degree that he comes to care about the others in his little travel group, and he's not used to constantly being on edge the way he needs to be during the journey. What he's familiar with is maintaining a detached distance from everything and everyone around him. The others in his class, or people at the store, news on the television, none of it can really touch him.

And sure, he's used to the kind of deep loneliness that a lot of people can't even imagine. It is a unique form of despair that he's come to carry, but that makes it all the harder to adjust.

What comes off as maintaining composure is, rather, struggling with how to appropriately express himself, or even to understand what he's feeling in the first place. The entire journey doubles as a strong dose of self discovery for him. For a character who is used to having only himself, who prides himself on knowing who he is in contrast to a world that never will, it's likely very disorienting to be so confused about what's happening inside of him.

His story resolves perfectly, I feel, with regards to these things. He makes a weapon of the loneliness that he'd accepted as "himself" his whole life. He faces that which had shaken him to his core, and boldly defends his friends, his hopes, his wishes, and all these feelings he couldn't have imagined months earlier. It's with this sort of introspection that we see him gain that clarity-- and composure-- that he hasn't really actually had throughout the story up until that point.

Hewwo! Could you write a story with Little Kakyoin and CG Jotaro? I really like the idea of a cute carefree little and big scary caregiver ^^ If you dun wanna, thats okay!

In the quiet town of Stardust, Jotaro, care giving the regress one, Kakyoin embarked on a camping trip deep within the dense Enchanted Forest. As night fell, the forest came alive with mysterious sounds and shadows. Jotaro, usually unfazed by the unknown, felt an unusual unease in the air. While Kakyoin, however, found delight in the magical ambiance

Around the crackling campfire, stories of enchanted creatures and ancient legends heightened the eerie atmosphere. Suddenly, a rustle in the bushes startled Kujo, causing him to jump. Noriaki couldn't contain his laughter at the unexpected sight of his usually composed caregiver on edge

Despite Jotaro's initial discomfort, the laughter proved contagious. The duo spent the night sharing ghost stories, and with each shared chuckle, the mystical forest seemed a little less intimidating. The unexpected twists of the night turned a camping trip into a memorable adventure, showcasing the magic that happens when fears are met with laughter and camaraderie.

[the-resting-grounds]

Honestly, I wouldn’t mind more on child!Jolyne with Jotaro/Kyogen/Noriaki- It’s a cute idea! And she’d grow up very loved, I think. I could see Jotaro getting her little plushes of marine animals (dolphin for him, a squid or octopus for Noriaki, and maybe a whale for Kyogen, since they’re associated with singing?)… Noriaki, since he’s working on game development, I could see him letting her play test the more child friendly ones! And I bet Kyogen would play music for her… Maybe even write her a song dedicated to her, and Jolyne gets the title as a tattoo when she’s older? That’d be cute!

Also ooohhh my god, their stands acting as babysitters… They’d love her so much, I’m gonna cry.

Jolyne would be very loved indeed. I think the trio all had some issues growing up, especially Jotaro and Kyogen who had problems with one or both of their parents. And Kakyoin, while he had loving parents, he must've felt the isolation of growing up with something nobody else could understand. They definitely don't want Jolyne to ever feel the way they did, so definitely they give her a lot of care and attention.

The thought of Jolyne getting sea-themed plushies of her parents is SO CUTE. I feel like maybe Star Platinum would try to pick up crocheting/knitting/sewing to make Jolyne everything. Such a cute thought.

Kakyoin not only lets her play test his stuff, but he also goes out of his way to create (Short, mini) games at his job. His coworkers tease him for it but they also throw ideas in for more ideas. I think he'd definitely have her in his lap and talk through his work as he codes.

Oh gosh the idea of Kyogen writing a song for Jolyne? Wonderful. Amazing. Leaves out music sheets for Jolyne to "compose" with while she writes her own songs too. Also does break into short lighthearted songs and dances with Jolyne when they're alone.

And I could go on and on about the stands and Jolyne... They hover around her so much... And maybe while her parents have moments of shyness, their stands definitely have no reservations (Star scooping Jolyne up, Green being a hammock and rocking her to sleep, Sharpnote creating a slide of crystal for her).

THERES SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT I DONT KNOW WHERE TO START AUGH

[sacredpit]

    kakyoin listens with heartful earnestness as giorno describes his similar history with his stand .   it sounds familiar enough to conjure images of his own lonesome childhood ;   his younger self isolated in a quiet ,   lightless corner with hierophant’s tendrils curled around his legs ,   the extension of his soul attempting to   console   him in its embrace .   silently ,   he wishes for his childhood self to be able to reach across time   &   space to connect with the younger giorno   ━━━━   to hold his hand   &   to prove to him that he’s not alone ;   that if he could just hold on a few more years ,   the world would open up   &   show   both of them   the loving companionship they’d only been able to find in dreams thus far . 

    “   no one really knows why stand users seem to attract each other ,   yet ,   ”   says kakyoin ,   an introspective gleam to his gaze as it wanders away from giorno ,   “   but i’ve always thought it was to counteract that initial feeling of isolation .   some people are born to entire families of stand users ,   &   some aren’t so lucky   ━━━━   but even so ,   being a stand user is still a one - in - a - million thing .   i think our powers have some kind of universal pull that calls to others like us ,   for better or for worse .   ”   that’s how   dio   found me ,   after all .   electing not to dwell on that idea much longer ,   a tiny breath puffs past his nares ,   laughter sewn into the suspiration .   “   obviously ,   it’s nearly impossible to prove that .   but there’s no way i’ll die without trying ,   at least .   ”

    the beaming smile that had temporarily departed returns upon giorno’s display of excitement ;   kakyoin’s core resembles the hearth of a furnace by sensation ,   melting away the   atmospheric chill   of the outside world   &   providing a warm   &   comfortable place to rest   &   be vulnerable .   “   i wouldn’t call myself a party expert by any means ,   but i’ve picked up some skills over the years .   besides ,   i’m determined to give you the best birthday party anyone’s ever seen ,   ”   he replies ,   punctuating his claim with a wink of his left eye .   then ,   he grins ,   eyes rendered amethyst crescents by the growth of his smile .   “   ━━━━   &   when i put my mind to something ,   i make sure it happens .   ”

    &   it’s   true   ━━━━   no known power can hinder the   unstoppable force   that is kakyoin   (   now kujo   )   noriaki’s ambition .   (   perhaps it could be construed as silly that he’d put   so much energy   toward this ,   but he wouldn’t hear it ;   he’d go to the ends of the earth for his loved ones ,   notwithstanding how trivial the matter seems ,   &   giorno is no exception .   )

    “   oh ,   ”   he voices ,   long lashes fluttering in the vein of butterfly wings as his interest shifts to the discussion of giorno’s friends ,   “   they sound lovely already .   though i believe mista may have said something about fugo having quite a temper ,   &   i wasn’t sure if he was being facetious or not .   ”   he seemed to have the kind of rollicking personality that polnareff used to embody ;   a perfect foil to the reserved   &   composed giorno .   bearing this in mind ,   kakyoin begins to imagine what giorno’s other friends are like ,   &   how they complement him .   he smiles with a certain sentimentality to it .   “   either way ,   i’m sure it’s nothing that would put me off .   jotaro was   quite a character   when we first met ,   &   i ended up marrying him ,   so i’d like to think i’m good at seeing peoples’ hearts .   ”   &   if they’re friends of yours ,   their hearts must be nearly as golden .   

    somepoint amid their discussion of takoyaki   &   other wonders of kakyoin’s homeland ,   the car comes to a stop   &   a gaze through the blackout window reveals their destination ;   a charming   gelateria   that looks to be as old as the city itself .   the driver gestures for them to wait before climbing out ,   likely to secure the area for someone as   important   as passione’s don .   for the umpteenth time ,   the passive knowledge at the back of kakyoin’s brain that his beloved giorno is also technically   the most powerful person in all of italy   is activated .   not that it alters the way he sees him ;   kakyoin is well - versed in the concept of   two things being true at once   ━━━━   perhaps he even embodies this duality himself .

     “   not bad !!   ”   he says with a lighthearted chuckle ,   squeezing giorno’s hand in a gush of endearment toward how   cute   he sounded .   “   don’t be embarrassed ;   japanese is hard .   but you used to speak it ,   so there must be some dormant knowledge in your brain that you can try to activate before you go back for a visit .   ”   his words overflow with encouragement ,   kind eyes turned to waning moons once more ,   the scars slashing through them like comets shooting across the sky .   “   but either way ,   we’d be happy to help .   &   you know ,   i’ve picked up some italian since i’ve been here   ━━━━   i felt awful about butchering such a beautiful language when i first arrived ,   but i think i’m getting the hang of it now ,   ”   kakyoin declares ,   laughing softly as he rakes a hand through cherry - red tresses ,   loose from their usual plait .   “   i’ll practice more once i get home ,   i promise .   ”

Giorno felt like Kakyoin was the kind of adult he wanted to be someday. He seemed like someone so elegant, courageous and friendly to everyone he meets. Although Giorno was all those things, teenage insecurity and horrifying childhood made it where having that natural confidence and wide eyes to the world around him felt nearly impossible some days for him. He was still scared of the dark, surely no mafia don is scared of something so immature?

"It's funny you speak of that, to believe you're the only one with a stand. All my life, I thought I was the only one with this gift." Anytime he told his parents about the plants that grew overnight or the small creatures that sprung to life from old buttons and coins? They didn't believe a damn word he said, and the children around him thought he was insane for talking about a floating golden creature by his side.

Having a stand felt like the cherry on top to a lonely childhood in a place that took far too long to feel like home for him. That's why his eyes light up to hear someone he considered a living paternal figure was so happy to celebrate his birthday. "Yes please! I've never been to a party before, so I entrust you know how, um...a party is done."

For as proud and social he seems, he really couldn't hide that he was still a shy boy around someone who made him feel safe. "I would love to, Trish and Fugo are also my closest friends, so you should meet them as well!" Fugo would be easy since he largely handled the finances and more transactional side of the mafia for Giorno, but Trish? She wasn't involved in any of this, but seemed to be busy living her life to the fullest across Rome.

"Ta-ko-ya-ki...?" Giorno tries to say it as fluently as Kakyoin did, but his own Italian accent made it sound so hard to pronounce even the name of the very dish he remembered fondly for so many years when thinking back to Japan. "I think I may need you and Dr kujo if I were to visit Japan, my Japanese is deplorable..." He feels kind of...embarrassed that he struggled for a moment.

Sengoku Warlords Live Again in MAGATSUNOTE Media Mix Project

  Back in January, media mix project MAGATSUNOTE kicked off as a web manga, promising a big reveal 55 days after its beginning. The big reveal has come: the project is branching out into a website, music, and much more.

ARK, the agency devoted to protecting and revitalizing humanity, is abusing its powers to benefit a privileged few. In response, warlords — with the same "epitaphs" as great Sengoku-era warlords — rise up in protest, wielding demonic powers.

  MAGATSUNOTE Season:1 will consist of radio dramas and newly composed songs, featuring 13 characters across five groups. Each group will also have its own musical group handling its respective songs:

  A new PV for the project has dropped, where you can see and hear the different groups' leaders as they show their demonic sides:

    And you can check out a short music video for the project's first song, "DEVIL ASYLUM":

    "Libra," a new song for the project composed by Arlequin, will drop tomorrow.

    An audio drama will start April 6, and will air on Radio Osaka's "Sakurabashi 919" and the MixChannel app. Plus, there are plans for live events, live broadcasts, and a new song every month.

[hermit-pistol]

anonymous asked: I could request hcs of Bruno and Kakyoin inviting their crush out, to finally declare themselves, they had planned everything from the beginning, it would be perfect. But everything that could go wrong turned out like a catastrophe, food falls on your head, it starts to rain (or whatever comes to mind) at the end of the date they are laughing at how disastrous everything was.

I had a lot of fun writing these, and they ended up being a little lengthy so I’m putting a cut on this one. Remembers requests are open everyone! 

Bruno Bucciarati: 

Bruno is a very meticulous planner, and with that he wants to ensure that everything is perfect when he prepares dates for the both of you. From the venue to the time frame, you're surprised that he doesn't have a schedule stashed away in his pocket somewhere.

Usually they were friendly outings, but this one was different. He was finally going to announce his feelings.

This night was set weeks ahead of time: Bruno would pick you up and would whisk you away to an extravagant restaurant. Afterwards, he would take you on a drive around town. He planned to confess while parked atop a local landmark, with the city's lights twinkling below. It was an utterly romantic idea and Bruno loved it.

He was on time to pick you up, and you were punctual walking out to the car as per usual. The ride was going smoothly until you could have sworn you heard a faint 'pop'. As he kept driving, something was clearly wrong with the car. Being the gentleman he was, Bruno pulled over to inspect the damage. Yep, you had a flat.

Most of the night was spent sitting on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck. To pass the time you played stupid games like "I Spy" and "Would You Rather", so it wasn't all that bad.

You observed the frazzled look on Bruno's face when the tow truck appeared an hour and a half later, with some ragged man behind the wheel. To try and salvage the night, you grabbed an Uber to the restaurant.

After arriving, your nice clothes a bit sweaty and tattered, you come to find out that not only is the restaurant packed, but they gave away your reservation and table to the sleaziest member of La Squadra, Melone. He was chatting up some random female over wine, clearly having a good time. It made Bruno's blood boil.

Outside of the restaurant you gently touched his hand, trying to reassure him that the night wasn't completely ruined, "As long as I'm with you this night wasn't a bust! We've just had some bad breaks, that's all."

Bruno's heart melted on the spot. After all of this you still wanted to be with him? This was a sign. What followed was a usually composed Bucciarati shyly explaining his feelings, which you accepted. Since you were both starving, you celebrated your dating news by eating at the local McDonald's. 💖

Noriaki Kakyoin: 

Your first meeting was at the university's club fair. He was manning the gaming club's booth when he spotted you hovering around the area with your friends. He really hoped that you would talk to him.

And you did. You broke away from your group to excitedly write your name down on the email list. After a brief conversation, you learned you had some lecture classes in common. You really clicked, much to his delight.

The next day during class you spotted him in the hall full of students and sat together from that day on. You talked about video games, pets, and other hobbies over future meetings, dining hall meals and even study sessions in the common room at the dorms. It was time to take the next step: he invited you over to his dorm. His roommate, Jotaro would be out for the evening and he wanted to show you his new "antique" games he had picked up from the local shop.

You wore something simple, and brought a bag full of necessities. (Even a change of clothes for a potential overnight stay.)

You tentatively knocked on the door, and to your surprise it opened immediately. His room was quaint, a little small, but you were thankful that it didn't smell like gross man ™️.

He greeted you with a hug, (you were shocked at his forwardness) and saw that he had the TV already set up with two controllers, and snacks (ie totinos totinos hot pizza rollsss)

"I plugged in the first game so we should be ready to go." He patted the spot next to him on his bed. You took it, settling onto that sweet twin xl size mattress.

After the start up screen, you were greeted with a ghastly message: an anti piracy screen. "I've been japed! Damn those shopkeepers..." Kakyoin had been baited by the prospect of a good deal. Every other game he tried to plug in was the same; piracy is no party.

He got up from the bed and turned on his pc. They could at least watch or play something on the computer.

The pop up that appeared on the screen really triggered the boy's last nerve: YOUR COMPUTER HAS VIRUS. As if things couldn't get any worse, he proceeded to burn his tongue on the molten lava-like texture of a pizza roll.

You were watching Kakyoin unravel before your very eyes; it was very unlike him to be so unorganized. "It's okay! We can just talk and wait for those pizza rolls to cool down." You let out a lighthearted laugh, and his scowl lessened.

Through deep conversation he eventually revealed his feelings, and in turn you revealed that you felt the same. Maybe you would be utilizing that extra change of clothes after all.

in yumenosaki's shadow, noriaki kobayashi works diligently as a producer. his most prized possesion holds the secrets in the depths of the academy. with a specialty for advertising and presenting, he is able to arrange many grand performances.

🐈‍⬛; APPEARANCE:

noriaki is of a smaller stature and build, but often elevates himself with platform shoes. his hair is plum-purple, cut messily down to his shoulders. often, his hair is described as "mauled by a dog". he always has one side pinned away with a skull-shaped hairpin. his eyes are a bright lavender, appearing a little sightless or dead.

noriaki disrespects the dresscode frequently. while he wears the yumenosaki shirt and vest, he takes liberty for everything else—a spiderweb-patterned tie adorned by a turquoise gem, simply black shorts and his signature elevated shoes. with that, he wears a fishnet glove on his left hand, the other one cut-up to enclose his knee instead. due to his clumsy nature, he wears bandages around his neck and his thigh, as well as his upper right arm.

🐈‍⬛; PERSONALITY

nori has, first and foremost, a positive outlook on nearly everything—he has been taught to assume the best before anything. this makes him confident in his abilities and allows him to stay dedicated to the task, despite the end result being unpleasant. nori doesn't fear failure or trying again and acknowledges them as part of his growth. he is a fast learner, through the many mistakes he has made. his limitless energy always has him trying and trying until he makes it. not even the tiniest details can dodge his eye.

as a producer, he has a knack for presentation and mcing/hosting—he knows that the first impression always matters the best and knows how to make images squeaky clean if dirtied before. nori knows what people want and expect of an unit, and his motto is "we'll deliver elevenfold better!". he never wants to disappoint.

this talent of knowing what people want, however, leads to a lot of problems on his personal life. he tries to fulfill expectations eleven times better, and when he is not able to, he feels useless. his hands have to be working on something constantly, otherwise he feels discardable. this often leads to fatigue and illness, which further spirals down into more work as he can't afford to sit still.

nori is a bit nosy and bothersome in the sense that he is thirsty for knowledge and tends to get pushy for it. curiousity may kill the cat, but satisfaction always brings it back. a secret that you share with nori will, however, always stay a secret, likely stored away in his cellphone. put your trust in him, and he will put trust in you. nori is loyal to those who are kind to him.

his endless energy has it's own disadvantages and it comes through as his short temper and sensitivity. he reacts very dramatically and makes a scene when upset. nori is not afraid of attention and of being loud, which has often led to tussles in the cafeteria, calls to his parents and principal visits. he makes absurd threats of death and pain on everyone who wrongs him or his friends, but never follows through.

revenge is best served freezing and the coldest dish is living better than the other. when someone tells nori that he can't do this or that, nori will do exactly this or that and do it until he does it well. his hobby of violin was originally an act of spite, because someone in middle school had told him that he is much too clumsy and unfit to play the violin, but it now serves as something to calm himself down or compose songs for his assigned units. he can't help his jealousy when he sees other people live better than him and tries to pursue the best.

🐈‍⬛; HISTORY

nori grew up with his parents in a small apartment. he had always been a little strange—he tended to scare other kids away, being a little more passionate about his feelings of bloodlust when someone hit him a tad bit too hard. often, he was found at the tv instead of outside—watching idol shows.

being a child, he picked up a lot of things quickly. he was able to memorise the little jingles used in their advertisements, all small quirks and tweaks in movies, picking out the things that enticed him and the things he found boring. oftentimes, he would have his parents turn off the tv so he could introduce them to his own wares, be it teddybears or the new kittens he picked off the road.

he liked collecting information, dissecting things to the littlest he could, as he did with shows. as he got older, he began to enjoy a few mystery mangas along with idol shows, as they gave him a lot to work with. this developed his interest for gothic culture on the side, as it had a lot of mysterious elements. it grew from literature to fashion as well.

his interest in idols prevailed, however, and his parents thought that it would be simply a childhood dream at first. many children want to be in bands, or sing or dance, that's not uncommon. but for nori, it went on way longer than normally, until they were sure—no, that was not just a childhood dream, nori really wanted to be an idol. and they supported him, they wanted the best for him—the kobayashi's goal was yumenosaki.

due to the costs of it, nori's parents went to work very often. they couldn't leave him home alone, after the scare he had when he was locked in. they made him move to his grandmother instead, so she could watch over him.

the next spring, the stage was set. his parents had enough money to pay for a few months already, so nori was getting ready to finally audition and get to work on his dream to become an idol.

unfortunately, not everything goes as planned.

from the beginning, nori was at disadvantage. he was a nobody, had no name to support himself. when he arrived at the stage, and while everyone had a pair, nori was to audition alone. but he trusted himself—his grandmother told him to always expect the best, for that makes you strong.

nori was not strong enough.

up against such strong units and people, he was bound to fail, all alone. no matter how much love he poured into his voice and his music, the crowd did not reciprocate his passion. he was hurried out before his song ended, as to not cause further damage.

he watched people whisper. all about him. things he wasn't supposed to know—things he wanted to know so badly. just why? dangling secrets infront of his nose, it hurt so badly.

nori wasn't meant to be an idol.

how bitter.

arriving home, he was filled with shame to announce his failure to his parents, who had worked so hard to get him into the auditions. when he had to say it, reality crushed him. he wasn't going to be an idol.

it took him a few months to recover from the loss. the family had sold their house and was pushed into the grandmother's living space for a while. it always reminded him of how hard he failed when he saw them sitting in the living room, all squashed together.

the glimmer of hope first came in his grandmothers eyes, he remembers, just on one of those days. a little glint in sightless, lavender eyes.

"i found something you might like."

nori couldn't thank his grandmother enough. the sole reason why he was standing up again from the ashes of his failure, right back at the yumenosaki gates. no, he won't just give up when his family is rooting for him. his mother and father looked so hopeful when his grandmother showed him the advertisement article.

if he can't be an idol himself, he'll make the best idols himself.

🐈‍⬛; TRIVIA

noriaki's motto is "deliver elevenfold better". the number eleven is his fortune number, and in numerology it's a master number, indicating inspiration and greatness. (as well as spiritual awareness.)

being a host at a variety show is his goal as a producer, along with making the best out of his assigned units.

his cats are named ichi and ni. (funny, nori.) both of them are calico cats found on the road, and very old. he also owns a rather exotic, eight-legged, web-weaving, giant beast in a tank and takes care of his grandmothers canaries.

despite his flexibility, he is so bad at sports, he drops to the ground after half a lap through the field. he was given the offer to write some essays on certain sports instead.

he's the sole member (and founder/president) of the gothic club.

his most prized posession is a gothic antique chair that he was gifted by his family. a lot of care goes into keeping it polished. nori likes to flex it.

for a lot of students nori is still only known as haisha-nori (敗者典, basically meaning loser nori), as a result of his failed performance.

he owns a cellphone that he uses to store his findings away. little crumbs of secrets in voice notes and photos. nori enjoys gathering and dissecting things.

Chris: Gamera Super Monster is the first Gamera film in 9 years and is mainly composed of clips from previous Gamera films, good to play in the background just for all the previous monsters’ clips in one film! Hmmmm….not great as a film in anyway, so only for kaiju fans, Watch: When Free.

Richie: You’re not missing anything if you skip it, Watch: When Free.
