masterlist

Aizawa Shouta’s life was full of regrets. Some were small, quick mistakes that are forgotten easily. Others were heavy, forever burned in his mind, dragging him down. Some things you can’t let go. Moments full of guilt. His past is a heavy weight on his shoulders. Every single regret made him the man he is today.

There is one day, that will haunt him forever. A day that formed every future decision of him. Just at 16 years facing the cruel reality. If he had been faster, better, stronger… He was unprepared and naive. A life taken too soon, he made sure it’ll never happen again. Everything is planned through, rational. He had to push these kids hard if they wanted to stand a chance. He may be brutal, but he only does what’s necessary.

Maybe it helps him to accept his best friends death. That it wasn’t his fault, that he does the right thing. To move on and improve. He always thought he was good at that, being calm and collected and such. If only he’d stop holding himself back.

You’d never find someone like Shirakumo again in your life, that’s what Aizawa always thought. Still, there is one person hitting too close to home. He hated that. How could he let go of this terrible accident when there was such a perfect copy of Shirakumo constantly in his business. He didn’t want to see that all too similar smile, the rare cloud like hair he’s never seen before, or the bubbly personality that could always lighten the mood.

It hurts to think about.

When he was still in High School, she was a lot smaller. He hadn’t seen her often back then. Only a few times when he visited Shirakumo, but of course he knew his little sister. Family was always important to Shirakumo, something Aizawa could never fully understand. He didn’t hate his family, but he didn’t value it as much.

She was 4, maybe even 5 years younger. He didn’t really care about her back then. After Shirakumo’s passing he only saw her at the funeral and then luckily he didn’t have to face his dead friends family anymore. It made him so terrible guilty.

The next time was years later. She was in her last year of High School when he faced her again. If he was honest, he had forgotten about her but seeing how she had grown up to look like her big brother, of course he recognized her. It was more surprising that she remembered him too.

She seemed happy to see him again. It made him uncomfortable. He’d run into her more than often during patrol. She’d always come up to him and talk. It seemed like she wanted to get closer to him, for the wrong intentions, he quickly realized. He would never dare to even think about Shirakumo’s sister like that, and she was still in High School. So he pushed her away.

When he was still in High School, before the accident, Shirakumo told him that his sister seemed to have a tiny crush on him. He barely interacted or talked to her, he thought Shirakumo was ridiculous.

Well, after all those failed attempts at getting closer, he might’ve been right, a little bit. How embarassing. Despite him pushing her away they still stayed in contact. It wasn’t too bad to have someone who shares the same kind of emptiness. The loss of a loved one.

After her graduation, he barely heard from her, which he was kind of grateful for. She was nice, but she was hung up on her dead brothers friend trying to find comfort. They’d both have to live their life. Move on.

And that was it.

Well, not really. It should’ve stayed at that, because now he was in too deep. She studied medicine. She didn’t take the same path as her brother, for now obvious reasons. If that was her decision or their parents, he had no idea. He was happy for her. Still saving the people. Rescuing the ones in need. Some own kind of heroic.

He didn’t really know until he ran into her after a rough night on patrol. She was training to become a doctor, so she started as a nurse in some hospital in Musutafu. Aizawa was more than suprised to see her walking into the room, fixing him up. She looked rather suprised too. Scolded him to be more careful and then sent him off.

Somehow luck wasn’t on his side the following weeks, maybe even months. The villain rate increased rapidly so he had no choice than to come into the hospital more often than not. He’d rather fix up himself, if the wounds were easy to take care of. At some point she was getting tired of fixing him up, but still did it.

She is the spitting image of her brother, just more feminine and he hates it. He wants to hate it. But it gives him closure somehow. He was selfish, and he knew. They started to see each other outside of the hospital too, what a suprise. When she starts her morning shift, he ends his patrol, so sometimes one of them bought coffee since they were in the same area. Just a quick exchange and then they’d go off to do their job. Or sleep.

At some point she gave him her number and threatened him if he wouldn’t call when he was hurt and she was off duty. If it was still an attempt to get more of him, he wasn’t sure. Maybe it’s just her being herself, it is how she acts around other people too. Always friendly and trying to help.

And then the day came where he actually had to call her. He dreaded that day because it meant there were more boundaries crossed than he was comfortable with. But she insisted. He had to. For them.

It happened more often that he would end in her apartment, getting stitched up in her bathroom. That was okay. Friends helping friends.

Shirakumo’s death date came closer. The mood was always sour during this time. His birthday too. He wasn’t the best at coping. He’d just sit in his empty apartment staring at the floor, maybe visit the graveyard if he didn’t feel like a complete failure. Yamada himself said he was always an ass to be around during that time.

Not his fault Yamada is better with emotions than him.

It was around one week before the day. He felt so alone, which he would normally prefer, but this was different. Maybe he could see her, they’re so much alike, it would help him. He was certain. So he called.

He was in her apartment again, this time on the couch rather than the bathroom. She sat down beside him and no one said nothing for quite a while.

“Why did you call? Normally I only see you to fix you up.”

“…I miss him.”

“oh.”

She got up and quickly came back with a bottle of some liquor and two glasses. He doesn’t remember what liquor.

“I didn’t know this was gonna be a shit show today..”

“M’sorry.”

“Don’t be.”

It should’ve stayed at that but he had to push, push for answers. She reminds him so much of him, it hurts. Always fixing him up, puttin him back together and listening to him sulking about Shirakumo even though he was her brother and not his.

“Why are you doing all this.”

“What… Oh Aizawa, I always found you admirable. You don’t give yourself enough credit. I know you don’t seem to be too fond of me, and I totally understand. I’m doing this more for myself, as selfish as that is.”

‘We both.’ he tought. He hated himself for sitting in this apartment. He should be the mature one. Two ‘adults’ sitting on a couch together and sulking for apparently two different reasons.

‘This is getting too much. I can’t do this.’

He doesn’t remember how long he’d been sitting there. The atmosphere was tense, and he could feel himself heating up from the liquor.

She broke the silence first. “Would you say something?” she sounded so desperate. He was desperate too, for closure. He needed something even if he didn’t want it. It was totally his mistake. Totally.

How could he end up in her bed that night. Something to add on the list on regrets.

He couldn’t fuck up more. His best friends little sister, his dead best friends little sister. He should be ashamed. She lies there, hoping for more than just a night of..whatever.

How could he do something like this to Shirakumo. He promised to keep away from her, tell no one about this, apologize- Hell, anything just so this never happened.

Somehow, he always found his way back. His mood only worsened from time to time because he said it’s enough one too many times. He patrols, passing her apartment building, and somehow, he rings the doorbell. Every. Single. Time. Of course she opens, and he’s all over her again just to quickly disappear the next morning.

He ends up hurt, and despite his better judgement goes to her apartment to get fixed up. He may take his shirt off so he can get treated, but hers is next. And every single time he tells himself: ‘Next time, I fix myself up.’

Somehow that never happens.

Then he starts to call her to come to his apartment when he’s having a hard time. But the difference is, he can’t run away. She happily stays in his apartment cooking breakfast before leaving around noon. It makes him uncomfortable.

She thinks of this as more, than just finding comfort. Maybe she doesn’t see why he is doing it and how he regrets it every time. She wanted this for what, years? She seems much happier. He isn’t a person to talk about feelings. He made it clear enough that they are not a couple or anything close to that.

And she’s aware. But there’s hope. That he gets attached to her. He reaches out so of course he wants to see her. She thinks of them more as friends but less than a couple while he thinks it’s clearly a mistake he can’t stop making.

She has some sort of sense to know it’s wrong. When they hastily pull of their clothes, he always sees that she’s pushing the picture of her and Shirakumo down, so he can’t see. It’s on a shelf right at the front door. And even if they go to her bedroom, the frame comes down every time he visits, cause he shouldn’t see.

And when she catches him before he can sneak off, she brings him to the door, where she pulls the picture up again. And there’s always this hopeful look everytime he leaves. He hates it.

He wants to hate it. He wants this misery to end. They won’t ever be together and he knows, she doesn’t. She wouldn’t understand. Because the worst is, she’s pretty yes, but she has so much resemblance with him. When she lays on her bed, he just buries his face in her neck or really anywhere, so he doesn’t have to face that hair, that look. He just can’t.

He doesn’t think she’s noticed yet. She seems quite happy with their arrangement.

It goes on for years.

MHA Prompt

Aizawa’s wife forgets him (Wanted to do so much more with this, sad it didn’t work out)

Captured by the league with the intent to transform you like they did to Oboro

You're rescued before the transformation can be completed

No physical damage is done but mentally you weren't the same

you flip flop between yourself and a programmed villain

Aizawa was committed to staying by your side and had total faith that the partial effects could be reversed

You tried your hardest but the following year was turbulent. The outburst and fits created messes sometimes too big to hide from you once you turned back to normal, making you feel guilty and like a burden.

The doctor explained that you were being affected in a way that was somewhere in between of a split personality and alzheimer’s. Slowly this switch would continue to take over; overriding your natural state of mind until you eventually become this other person.

A person with no memory of who they 'used to be'.

A person who didn’t love Aizawa anymore.

It felt like your life ended right there.

You and Aizawa kept trying to make it work, even when you 'went away for a while'.

A unique spin on long distance relationships is how Aizawa tried making light of it but you could see how much he was hurting

Your doctors worked out as many bugs as possible; there's no more 'evil twin' of yours after a year but there was nothing to be done about you still turning into another person.

The switches were increasing in frequency and duration as well.

It wouldn't feel like the end of the world if this 'other you' didn't have zero romantic feelings for Aizawa whatsoever.

You couldn't cope with the knowledge that one day you'd refuse his loving embrace, and not be filled with butterflies when he smiled at you.

You finally snap and Aizawa accepts the reality of the situation

Aizawa couldn't stand it any longer and tried absolutely everything to put it off but you were in so much pain, so was he, and things reached a point that it was unavoidable any longer.

Aizawa divorces you. So when 'the time comes' you can be set free entirely.

You cling to him for every waking moment of sanity that you have left

Then one day you drifted out of his reach for good

People grieved with and comforted Aizawa as best they could

Then struggled to pretend that nothing's happened around you

A year passes and things relatively settled

you lived a brand new life and Aizawa truly wished you a lifetime of happiness

Before your mind completely went, the 'other you' developed a crush on none other than Allmight

It became a nightmare for both men

Allmight wanted to drop dead the first time he realized you were flirting with him, knowing this had to be violating some kind of bro-code or law or moral something!!!!?

He avoided you as best he could then later, once you were yourself again and full of shame, he'd awkwardly accept your apology

He also pleaded with Aizawa to understand he wasn't feeding your crush whatsoever, that this was a very uncomfortable position to be in

Aizawa never thought he'd have to watch you fan over another man with his own eyes and the pain of seeing it is agonizing

But he says it's okay

Because he can't remember how long it's been since he's seen you so happy; so much like yourself again

So Aizawa implores Allmight to give things a chance.

If it meant you'd be well taken care of by someone he knew to be trustworthy and treat you how you deserved, then Aizawa would support it

Allmight is hardly put at ease but Aizawa can no longer hold the torch for you. Who better to carry it for him than Allmight.

Finally, for his friend's peace of mind, he agrees to entertain things

At a very VERY slow pace

A snail could run laps around Allmight he took things that slowly

Everyone around you could understand the situation, also wanting the best for you as well, but it took so long to get used to seeing you with someone other than your husband, whom you loved dearly 'til your final days of sanity

Allmight struggled to shake feeling icky about this whole thing but there are moments he could see the silver lining and cherished getting to see you happy again

People ask Aizawa how he deals with the agony of seeing you with someone else, acting so normal when you'd come to visit Allmight on campus every now and then, and engage in conversations with you as if you had only ever been acquaintances.

He tells them to just look at you and how full of life you were again

He'd never deny that there isn't a single day he wished this was all a dream or that you'd magically come back to your senses and fall back into his arms. Arms that ached to hold you and a heart that missed you more than it could bare.

Aizawa would never remarry, he'd never consider it.

Aizawa would tell you how he was once married to the love of his life, and how she's long passed, but that he will always love her and couldn't wait until they’d meet again

MHA chapter 419 rant

What the actual hell is this chapter ?!?!?!? What is going on horikoshi?!?!??

So suprise AFO IS BACK👎👎👎 seriously what the hell I knew he was gonna come back but he is so boring and I hate him as a villain like wdym you only pulling up with a plan that failed multiple times cos you have thing for your brother like!?!? The doctor and the hero comission could of been better villains. My point still stands AFO being the main bad guy even though this mf was killed and injured by everyone is lame and stupid 😭. Like can AFO just disappear out of existence already like?!?! Also I really doubt that dfo is true considering this guy just loves to act like a season 1 bakugo and call Izuku useless every breathing moment he gets. Also at this point afo out here using shigaraki like a wet human suit thing and that's it

Shigaraki is dead?!?!!!? Vile. Y'all telling me that shigaraki is basically dead this guy basically killed himself after a little fight (it wasn't little that's a hyperbole it was huge he deserves better than this disservice) sigh so shigaraki died with all his memories and the truth of his own origin which is completely sad and wow the amount of retconning for this is insane. Wdym to tell me that AFO needed someone emotionally weak to take advantage of so he chose kotaro, befriended the guy and manipulated him into having Tenko and then used Tenko as his little thing to make the perfect vessel!?!???!? DAM SHIGARAKI IAM SORRRY HORI DID YOU LIKE THIS

Izuku lost two arms and is getting the worst end of the stick as always. As an izuku Stan this isn't it for me like what are you telling me that HE LOST TWO ARMS AND THEN PEOPLE DO COME BUT I AINT SEEING NONE TRYNA HELP THIS GUY. ALSO IZUKU IS NOW ARMLESS AND QUIRKLESS WHATS GOOD ON HERE??!?????!?!? Also looks like izuku out here being the only one who doesn't actually get a full heart to heart with their villain at least ochako and toga were treated better and got that little sob scene where they called eachothers names out and what not but izuku and shigaraki gotta be sentenced to pure suffering for no reason 🤦‍♀️. Also the whole page is Hella and I mean Hella creepy and off like wth is this it's too gory (I know that's not valid criticism but this is my opinion) Izuku out here being the only one who can't be a proper hero like the guy couldn't even stand up to AFO unlike bk this is just mountains and mountains of disrespect and disservice . SOMEONE CHECK UP ON POOR INKO AND IZUKU

The quirks the backstory the things?!?!. So basically overhaul had the oh quirk or whoever the guy in the picture manga panel thingy which looks like OVERHAUL. This guy had an op quirk like he had the power of destruction and reconstruction but then afo takes that away and then has the doctor somehow somehow genetically modify it ( istg i still dont know how that works or how he could do that) and then TOOK SHIGARAKIS OG QUIRK WHICH (what was his og quirk we arent ever told) and then proceedes to set this child who wanted to be a hero for pure failure. Also what is going on with AFO and kotaros relationship and why does the description of kotaro being mentally/emotionally weak heavily remind me of inko midoriya. Also the RETCON LIKE OH AFO IS LIKE HAVE A KID FOR ME OR SOME BS AND HE HAS A KID AND THEN KOTARO APPARENTLY FULLY LOVES HIS FAMILY HOWEVER IT LOOKS LIKE KOTARO LOVES AFO More THAN HIS FAMILY

Eraserhead making a comeback and finally apologising (or not). I mean at least Eraserhead is back and apologising to his student for failing to be a teacher to him which ok cool cliffhanger I guess. Also where is mic I don't think I can take it if mic is secretly off screened especially cos Eraserhead is crying why is the guy crying like is he crying for izuku which dam as he should your student is dying but he was legit shouting left and right for bakugo 🤷‍♀️. Also Eraserhead has a lot of apologies for izuku considering how he treated the poor dude. ALSO DOES THIS MEAN OBORO IS BACK TO THE PLOT SOMEHOW ( I love oboro) but how does this work how did it happen how did he break free Iam so confused did much due for oboro or something.

Sato, ojirou and sero out here coming in clutch. but none y'all running to see if izuku ain't gonna die from blood loss or something. Cool entry I guess everyone can take a good fight with AFO but Izuku because hori doesn't like izuku and izuku just sucks!!!. I get it 1A is too big so hori out here needing to give everyone their little moments but like?!?! This just makes afo seem so weak it first went from only all might being the one to even fouch and defeat afo and now its everyone thats not the ofa users which great (sarcasm if you couldn't tell). ALSO THIS MOMENT DONT WORK BECAUSE IZUKU LACKS DEVELOPMENT AND SO DOES 1A and their whole dynamic?!?!?!!!!!???!

I Have ALREADY SEEN THE SHIGARAKI MIGHT COMEBEACK COS AFO CAN HEAR HIS ECHO BUT I DONT WANT HIM BACK AND IF HE DOES HE SHOULD DIE WITH IZUKU COS I GENUINELY GIVE UP

In conclusion, I hope both izuku and shigaraki die and izuku to be remembered as the greatest hero and that's it honestly!!

[mha-quotes-and-such]

i just watched Inside Out 2 and it gave me an idea! (And I'm about to make it your problem)

So: if the League was responsible for someone's (probably not very mentally stable) mind, which emotion would each of them be? (It doesn't have to be an emotion from the film. Go wild if you want!)

Also, who would be in control the most? And is someone actually in charge?

So because I love to make things difficult for myself, I decided that they’ll not only have to be from the movies, but that each emotion can only be used once. That being said I think they’d be:

Joy - Magne. While Magne joined the League due to being discriminated and feeling out of place in society, I think shes the greatest example of someone who turned the League into a real home, and turned herself into someone she was proud of. She wanted to find a place where she could be herself, and find the confidence to be herself as well. And she did! She found that place and those people and found her own confidence and made her life something she could be happy with

Anxiety - Twice. Obviously a lot of his character is about being uncertain of himself and constantly being conflicted or contradicting himself. His general stance on himself is clearly a huge source of stress and anxiety for him, but also I think his jumpy/contradictory personality kind of embodies anxiety in a way

Ennui - Mr Compress. Alright I know this might seem kind of odd since hes Anything but the tired, bored, apathetic teen in Inside Out, but hear me out. He sorta acts as the counter to ennui. He doesnt really have a reason to be a villain other than he just. Wants to? He doesnt need to be dramatic or flamboyant but he Wants To. In a way, you say that he does find the world to be uninteresting or unappealing, and that on its own its not something he particular cares about. He acts the way he does because of that, he wants to make sure he doesn’t become bored and apathetic

Anger - Dabi. This ones pretty self explanatory I think. Hes angry at the world, at his family, at his life, at heroes, everything. His main motivation is that hes been wronged, and everyone deserves to pay for it. While a lot of the League are angry that they were wronged in some way, most of them have learned to cope with it in some way, or channel it into other goals and mindsets. Dabi never really learned to do this, and instead made his whole life a mission of revenge

Disgust - Mustard. He’s absolutely repulsed by heroes, especially those in training, seeing them as snobs who look down on others. He’s angry like Dabi, but in a way where social hierarchies play a lot into it. Maybe its just because hes a teen, but he reminds me a lot of stereotypical high school movies, where the dislike between kids is less focused on genuine injustices, and more on distain for social politics and a general sense of how much “better” you are than someone else. From what I remember of Disgust in Inside Out she had a similar vibe to her

Envy - Toga. While a lot of the league have a story about wanting something that others have (safety, friendship, self confidence, etc.) Toga is the one who acts on this the most, and in the most malicious ways. Her desire for other people or what they have is a main motivating force for her, and you can see that in the way she acts with other people, especially with how possessive she can be

Fear - Shigaraki. A lot of Shigaraki’s life has revolved around fear in some way. He started out as a timid child, scared of his family and later scared of himself. His fear was then taken advantage of by OfA, using it to mold him into the perfect prodigy in his teen/young adult years. As an adult, he serves as the face of the League, being a symbol of fear to the general public

Nostalgia - Kurogiri. While Kurogiri himself may not have any memories of his life pre-League, a lot of his story revolves around the past, and a life he can never go back to. Also the fact that Riley gets nostalgia later in life and Oboro became Kurogiri later as well matches up nicely I think

I couldn’t really think of anyone for sadness or embarrassment so. Whoops.

I think in typical League fashion, Shigaraki is in charge to an extent. At least if not in charge then he’s most prevalent. I think the person stuck with these assholes would be both a really worried person in general, constantly fearing that everyone is against them, but they would cope with that by trying to get others to fear them instead

[ace-touya]

Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....Thanks...

OH NO it’s gonna be so hard to pick just ten- I think I’ll have to just do anime ones so I can narrow it down for myself

Dabi/Touya Todoroki

I have several analyses on this man so if you want my full thoughts look for those I cannot talk about every reason I adore this man right now. Bottom line? He’s incredibly relatable to me and also I feel so many things whenever he is on screen.

Tomura Shigaraki/Tenko Shimura

Shoutout to my sister because I don’t think he’d be this high if not for her love for him tbh. I do adore him tho he is literally everything to me (can’t beat Dabi tho) I just want to give him a hug

Megumi Fushiguro

Another really relatable one for me, he gets bonus points because he’s similar to Dabi (I’m working on a Venn diagram) but he’s so sweet and nobody understands him like I do. I’m more obsessed with Megumi than Sukuna is

Satoru Gojo

AKBDKSNDKSNDKSBX. The wounds are fresh with this man bc I just watched JJK 0. I had mixed feelings about him when I started JJK but I started loving him rlly fast. He’s incredibly relatable also. He’s lower than the others just because I do not understand this guy for the life of me. I love that about him tho, he’s such a weird dude

Himiko Toga

This girl deserves the world. I’d like to formally apologise on behalf of all anime girls that this is the first one on my list and she’s so far down, I’m ashamed of myself. She’s like top 3 for MHA tho so it’s okay. I think. ANYWAY I think the idea of people not understanding the way that you love is just so real and it makes me want to cry.

Katsuki Bakugo

His character development is literally?? So good?? And again there’s a lot of relatability with him. He’s similar to Dabi so that’s bonus points and he’s one of my friends’ faves so that’s also bonus points. I hate to admit that he’s lower down because of the fandom more than anything else

Ochaco Uraraka

SHE IS THE WORLD. Ochaco they could never make me hate you, I’m an Ochaco defender for life because I don’t care what anyone says, she is an incredibly well-written and fleshed out character and she is not just ‘In love with Izuku’ and I’m saying that as someone who ships Izuocha

Kyouka Jiro

Most of my love for her comes from my headcanons because we simply don’t get enough of her in canon. But she reminds me a lot of my best friend which probably plays a role in my adoration of her and everything she does.

Junpei Yoshino

In such a short amount of time this baby stole my heart. I’ve never fallen in love with a character in such a little amount of content. But I relate to him immensely and he deserves so much better than what he got.

The way this is just JJK and MHA- I promise I have watched other anime I just haven’t hyperfixated on them as much as JJK and MHA

This was impossible for me so here are some honourable mentions: Yuji Itadori, Ai Enma, Momo Yaoyorozu, Rin Okumura, Suguru Geto, Kazuho Haneyama, Hizashi Yamada, Oboro Shirakumo, Maki Zenin, Toge Inumaki, Hodaka Morishima, Mitsuha Miyamizu, Taki Tachibana, Hina Amano

[lunar-insanity]

Things I took away from Octo 2

Hikari needs better taste in friends. Good thing I found him 7 more

Partitio fucking 'Sunshine Incarnate" Yellowil is so strong he convinced someone that life was still worth living

If we shadows have offended, think but this and all is mended //at Temenos' Stormhail route, no one is allowed to die on my (Castti's) watch

Please do not start Parti and Osvald on a debate about coffee, they will end up incorporating it into ANYTHING

WILL SOMEONE GET THIS MAN SOME ACTUALLY FUCKING CLOTHES NOW?! WE BEAT VIDE! HE DESERVES CLOTHING

The real magic WAS the friends we made along the way! And love too!

Everyone needs a Cry, a Hug, and a Nap. In that order, an supersize it.

Are Therapists a thing in Solistia? They should get on that

IF ALL YOU LOOK FOR IS DARKNESS, THAT'S ALL YOU'RE EVER GONNA SEE

Vide is a more fun fight than Galdera. That says all you need really.

I actually respect Lyblac more than Oboro. Lyblac is the daughter of Galdera. Everything she does is so Galdera can be released. She isn't human, everything and everyone is a pawn that she gleefully moves on the chessboard. Oboro on the other hand-

He is human. He is human and spent years with Hikari, raising him (for eventual fucking slaughter), he has a sister, and in all those years, all that time, he couldn't find ONE reason to live for another dawn. All he could see was suffering and thought the best thing to do was end it all, when, buddy, HAPPINESS IS FOUGHT FOR. You see a light and all you want to do is see it shine. How many fucking mental hoops did this guy jump through, just to keep justifying his actions to himself. Man says there's no good or evil but then says the world is cruel. PICK ONE. THE UNIVERSE IS A THING, WE ARE ASCRIBING EMOTIONS TO IT.

//Slaps Yomi's lute// This thing can hold so much foreshadowing in it-

//Looks at Pala and Mikka// So when's the wedding and where.

Devotion is an odd and powerful thing. Beware to not be too devoted, that you ascribe yourself to it blindly and be consumed. Rip Tanzy

I really wish you saw the travelers in cutscenes like the ending. I know it would be so much work, having to work out each potential combo, but the 'Journey for the Dawn" cutscenes were so lovely seeing everyone talk with each other.

I love Octopath Travelers with every fibre of my being.

[amemenojaku]

I love oboro muramasa so so much honestly when I think about it it's probably my favorite video game ever... I saw on twitter that it turned 15yo in april and it's like a punch in the guts... lol..... it rewired my little brain back on the wii and I was so excited to play the remaster on vita with all the new content and even more gorgeous art and a better translation!! and like anyone who has played it I wish it'd get a port to newer consoles because I want more people to experience it and appreciate how beautiful and fun it is!!!! don't have anything clever or special to say here I'm just floored by how much I love it and how much I miss it. baby you deserved to be a famous game </3

[theetwinkleboy]

this is one of the first chapters i've read that i've been disappointed by. the story beats themselves were all things i'm excited about, but what i didn't enjoy was how rushed it all was! like. i know i was kicking up a fuss about deku's arms all week but like. if you're gonna take his arms, take his arms. let the audience sit with that for more than one chapter, and actually take the time to flesh out the other storylines, like aizawa and yamada and oborogiri, who deserved more than like 3 pages of resolution.

yamada, who was the one to stay and guard oboro's body, saying they should just give up on oboro, that their friend is dead, was SUCH an interesting character point. this man is out here on a rock in the middle of the ocean, begging his friend for some closure on the ghost that is still haunting them--it was the MOST compelling part of the chapter for me, hands down. like. in the past, he's kind of let aizawa take the lead wrt their approach to oboro's body, and iirc, this is the first time he's come out and expressed his own feelings about it beyond commiseration, and i wanted MORE

and also! i love yamada's ruthless, suspicious streak! i love aizawa's inability to let go of hope! I love how on the surface they each project the opposite!

i love this carryover from him being the one to suggest the traitor to him being the one to be like 'our friend is a corpse and we cannot bring him back.' and i wanted them to fight about it more. i really did. that could have been a whole chapter. I was prepared for it to be a whole chapter and i frankly feel a little cheated that it was so rushed!

Love & Angst Chapter 7

Chapter 6 here

Warning: This chapter has a small time jump in it, has implied smut (finally!) and it does briefly talk about death. Note: I actually did lose my younger sister last year, and I'm still in the grieving process. Writing about it was, in a weird way, coping. Thank you for reading <3

******

A few weeks had gone by since that night you and Shouta had kissed for the first time, but both of your fates were sealed after that. You had unofficially claimed each other. You were together every opportunity you could get, which was not very often with both of your busy schedules. When you did see each other, he would mostly come to your house where you two would watch a movie or have dinner together. He hadn't spent the night, yet, but there was a lot of kissing involved. And when you weren't together, you would be glued to your phone, flirtatiously texting away.

He was mostly a quiet and serious man, especially when it came to the education and safety of his students. However, he seemed to relax more when he was around you; smiling and laughing more. That said, you really did admire the way he cared for his students; it made you think of Shoto, and you felt calmness at the fact that he was under the protection of Shouta and the other pro-heroes.

On one evening when he was at your house, you two had a conversation on more of a serious note. You told him about how you had lost your younger sister the year prior, and how that had put a strain on your relationship with the rest of your family. He then talked about the tragic loss of his high school friend, Oboro, and how his death still affected him to this day. He said how that made him treasure the friendships he has now, especially his friendship with Hizashi, who he has also known since his high school years. For the rest of that evening, you two had a solemn conversation until it was time for him to go back to the teachers' dorms at the U.A..

******

One Friday night, you had a shift at the restaurant with Naomi. It was your typical busy Friday night, and thankfully, it went by quickly. After your shift was over, you two sat down at the bar to catch up. "Soooo how are things going with Shouta?" She wasted no time. You replied, "I really like him, Naomi. I know it's only been a few weeks, but I've never felt this way about any other man I've been with. I could see myself falling in love with him." She squealed with joy hearing that, and gave you the biggest bear hug. "You deserve to be happy, Y/N. You're an amazing person with a beautiful heart and soul." You hugged her back and thanked her; she was truly the best friend you've ever had.

While you two sat at the bar, you took the opportunity to ask about her and Hizashi. "Ha ha ha, we just vibe well. It's nothing serious, but he's a goofball and constantly makes me laugh. I'm just gonna see how it goes, ya know?" As it turned out, they made out that night at the bar right on the dance floor, and have been casually seeing each other since that night. "Well, I hope it turns out for the best for you two, I think you're cute together," you said with a smile. She just smiled back, and shook her head, almost as if to say "we'll see."

You and Naomi talked for a little while longer, then left to your respective homes. You were absolutely wiped out when you got home, to the point that you fell asleep on your couch, missing a text from Shouta. You woke up a few hours later in a complete daze, forgetting for a moment where you were. You looked at your phone to check the time; it was 2:00am, and you had also noticed the missed text from Shouta asking if he could see you the following evening. You smiled at your phone, but decided you would respond in the morning since he was probably sleeping right now.

******

It was Saturday evening, and you were getting ready to have Shouta over for dinner. You didn't feel like cooking that night, so you ordered some tempura and sushi for you two from the restaurant down the road. As you were leaving to go pick up the food, Shouta pulled up to your house. You gave him a quick kiss, and told him to head inside and make himself comfortable, and that you would be right back. Even though it had only been a few weeks since you started seeing each other, you trusted him enough to leave him alone in your home with your cats, even if it was only for a few minutes.

When you arrived back home with the food, you walked inside and saw Shouta sitting on the floor; he was using a string toy to play with Annie, while Jareth slept on the couch in complete oblivion. The sight made your heart swell; you instantly thought of a future with Shouta, such as coming home to him after a long day of work. You then blushed, and tried to shake that thought out of your head; it's only been a few weeks, and you two hadn't even made anything "official" yet, let alone think about living together. As if he saw that you were in your head, he asked "is everything okay, Y/N?" You nodded your head and smiled back at him. "Let's eat! I'm starving," you exclaimed.

You two sat down to eat your tempura and sushi; the food was absolutely divine, and you couldn't have asked for better company to enjoy it with. You two talked about how your workweeks went, and how his students were doing. The conversation was light, but nice. After you finished eating, Shouta helped you clean up. You poured two glasses of wine, and you two headed back to your living room to put on a movie. Something shifted in the air that night while you were watching the movie. You felt antsy... but in a good way? You couldn't explain it. Whenever you two watched a movie, you usually sat closely to each other, but didn't snuggle or anything. You wanted to respect his boundaries as he didn't strike you as a touchy-feely man (besides the kissing that usually ended your evenings together).

As you had already noticed, something was different in the air that night. For one, Shouta unexpectedly put his hand on your thigh, and was absentmindedly moving his thumb from side to side on it while the movie was playing. That was new. You couldn't help yourself; you instantly started having dirty thoughts just at his touch. You had not been with a man intimately in over a year, and Shouta's touch was anything but unwelcome. You shyly looked up at him, and noticed that he was watching you as opposed to watching the movie. You two stared into each other's eyes, and in a bold move, you put your hand behind his head and pulled him down to you to give him a sultry kiss.

You two had kissed many times in the weeks you had been seeing each other, but this kiss was different. You decided to be even bolder, and your tongue captured his in the middle of the kiss. What you were not expecting next was him grabbing you by your waist and pulling you onto his lap; you were suddenly straddling him, forgetting all about the movie that as playing in the background. You put your hands around his neck, deepening the kiss. He suddenly pulled away and softly asked, "Y/N, can I touch you?" You felt like you were going to burst at that question, "Shouta...please...yes, touch me."

With that, you started kissing again, your arms wrapped around his neck, while his hands cupped your ass. Since you were in the position of straddling him, you could feel him throbbing and getting hard under you, while you felt yourself getting wetter by the second. You pulled away from the kiss, and breathily asked, "Shouta...would you like to go to my bedroom?" He paused for a moment, "are you sure, Y/N?" Without missing a beat, you said, "yes. I want you. I need you." With that, you got up and grabbed his hand and lead him to your bedroom.

To be continued!

@erxsxre asked : "I don't deserve you." For Oboro

He stares at him a moment. Hes quiet as his lips purse slightly. Staring down at the darker haired male before he lays over him. Soft kisses pressed up his neck as his arms wrap around him.

“You deserve everything I give you and more… every kiss, every ounce of love… you have no idea how much I love you…”

[herseyboktan]

I was totally forgot Kyuubei is such a badass even though she is my first fav character in the show.

I wish she had more screen time and had important parts at serious arcs.

I mean she is so damn strong and fast sword user. Her fights are amazing and her fighting style is great. I love watching her when she gets serious and beat the shit out of enemy.

And she is really good written character. I think she has mixed personality. She has dumb-idiotic side (like zura, gin, kagura) and cool-skillfull-reasonable side (like takasugi, hijikata, nobume, oboro). This is literally something else.

Also, I love her appearance. Her outfit is one of the best her jacket, pants, eye patch etc (kinda smilar to sakamoto lol).

She deserved better.

[dark-elf-writes]

So for you PYT AU, how do Inko and Oboro get married, do they just go down to the courthouse with a few people because that's all they need for their love? Or is it a sweet little backyard deal? Or is it further into Oboro career so he is making bank and they do a big do where he spoils Inko? Please I need details. Also I am envisioning Izuku as flower child.

At first I wasn’t sold that they would actually get married or if they would be the couple that just dates forever and calls each other husband and wife, but then I thought about benefits and possible issues with hero work if she isn’t his wife so yeah it would make more sense for them to be married.

The strike me as a couple that still wouldn’t rush into marriage though. Like Inko got massively screwed over in her last marriage and wasn’t even technically divorced until several years into her relationship with Oboro so I can see them having like a suuuper long engagement during which izuku just starts referring to Oboro as their dad because “my mom’s fiancé” is a god damn mouthful when you’re like ten and trying to tell a story and it’s not like they remember Hisashi being around anyway.

Oboro proposed in the most over the top way possible while still keeping it rather private. I’m talking a big family dinner at a restaurant he rented out completely, a nice walk where they were a bit in front of everyone else, candles, rose petals, biodegradable glitter and confetti poppers that Hizashi and Izuku aimed directly for both of their heads when she said yes. Incredibly romantic. Oboro is filmed on patrol with glitter stuck in his hair and the biggest grin on his face for DAYS.

The actual ceremony they would probably keep pretty small/pretty much a hero only affair. Both for security reasons and because Inko doesn’t really have any civilian friends and a lot of her coworkers weren’t the kindest after the news of their relationship dropped. Jokes on them though because after one too many glasses of wine at a gala it was learned that she, Jeanist, and surprisingly Snipe get along like a house on fire and no one knows peace again.

It is a backyard affair in the house that she and Oboro bought and he tends to the gardens on his time off as a stress relief thing. Izuku is the flower child looking completely adorable in their dress and flower crown even as they purposefully pelt their family members with flower petals because Oboro told them they could and Shouta definitely deserves it for some reason or another. Nemuri so the one that marries them as there would have been a fight trying to get her on one side of the wedding party over the other as while she might have been Oboro’s friend first her and Inko become like sisters over the years. There’s a lot of laughter and happy tears throughout the ceremony. Izuku is all but sobbing into Jeanist’s shoulder from the moment their mom gets to the altar because she looks so fucking happy. Their first kiss is with smiling lips and tears on both of their faces. Oboro immediately pulls back to grab Izuku like some sort of weird lion king scene because he did it. This is his family now.

The reception is a lot of terrible dancing and videos that get posted to social media that go viral because no one expects to see heroes act like normal fucking people/ what the hell is Lunch Rush doing that does not count as a dance but the ceremony is just for them.

Characters with wasted potential: kurooboro

It's our favourite intelligent nomu kurooboro that deserves so much more attention and a better arc then what he got.

Personally the narrative does seem to treat oboro and kurogiri as two different characters which I like but I wish we got more exploration on that.

Kurogiri

Kurogiri is shigarakis caretaker he is also AFOs servant. However, that's all we know.

1) I would have it that kurogiri used to be a loyal AFO servant. He became a servant/puppet due to him falling through the cracks of the system and trying to escape poverty in anyway he could. Overtime kurogiri got physically sick and his body started to fail yet he still worked for AFO accepting what he did. Afo recognises kurogiri as a valuable asset when his plan of capturing eraser and his quirk goes to mess and starts plotting with the doctor to help kurogiri get a new body which happens to be oboros.

The doctor manages to successfully do this transfer or so he thinks. The doctor is weird and creepy and yes he manages to do implant kurogiri's mind and quirk into a vestige but this comes with some drawbacks like oboro and kurogiri both sharing a mind and body or oboro physically and spiritually rejecting kurogiri making it so that his body is tearing him from the inside out in some way.

Kurogiri is tasked with the job of taking care of Shigaraki and at first he is quite indifferent to the child and doesn't care for him. However, as time goes on he does slowly warm up to shigaraki and care for him ( I love dad kurogiri too much for this). This puts kurogiri in a rough position, he cares for shigaraki but he also hears the plans that AFO and the doctor have in mind for him and he indirectly tries to slow them down or hinder them. All of this is little to no prevail, as much as kurogiri cares he isn't equipped or certified to take care of a traumatised child or to stop afo and the doctors plan.

2)Kurogiri makes a little plan. The plan is one where he gets a bar (AFO allows him) and he basically runs the bar. From the money he gains in the bar he spends some on shigaraki but also hides some of the income to at least assure his and shigarakis own survival. Sadly, the plan is found by AFO himself and the doctor does some "modifications" to kurogiri (practically torture) to keep kurogiri complacent and become the perfect puppet, to play his role. Kurogiri glad that AFO didn't take the bar away from him , but now takes like 50% of the income he earns spends the money on various things. He still has a plan but the initial plan for him to escape with shigaraki is looking slimmer and slimmer. He has a moment where he starts to desire freedom to escape and burn everything he has to the ground to fully forget about shigaraki, AFO, the doctor and all. Yet he stays and finds way to passively retaliate and rebell against both AFO and the doctor.

During this time he and oboro/ oboro's spirit and remains bond over their experiences. Considering that they both want freedom one way or another they work together to enhance their quirk.

Oboro shirakumo

Oboro shirakumo is a former 17 year old hero student who is friends with midnight, present mic and Eraserhead. He was majorly injured during a work study that he did with his friends trying to help save some children.

1) Oboro doesn't actually die, he is just declared dead and taken away. Afo is pretty disappointed when the villain fail to kill/ bring to him Eraserhead and accidentally bring in a heavily injured oboro. The doctor takes oboro, thinking that his quirk has some potential and suggests the idea of making oboro and kurogiri a merger intelligent nomu. AFO agrees to this of course and oboro's body is basically healed/ fixed by the doctor to become a suitable vessel.

2) at this point oboro is in a coma. However, when the doctor tries to merge the two oboro does show signs of retaliation and rejecting kurogiri, yet kurogiri overpowers him. Oboro is scared and untrusting of anyone around him at the moment. Both he and kurogiri get into a lot of arguments over the body they share which proves for it to be difficult to live in the body.

3) due to their differences and background oboro and kurogiri do not get along at first. Oboro is still quite naive about the world but his counterpart kurogiri isn't . Due to their close forced proximity and the fact that both want the body they are in to function they try and cooperate. They get to know eachother and start to understand their respective sides. Kurogiri shares his story, how he had to live on the street and survived of barely anything, how he enjoyed being a bartender before his body started failing him and he had to quit and fully dedicate his life to being AFO's servant. That's when oboro shares his own experiences how he wanted to be a hero, own an agency with his friends and how he also wanted to help others. They continue to cooperate and both make the plan of saving up money and running away from AFO.

3) When that plan is found out and the doctor does his 'modification' oboro goes silent, taking the blunt force of it at the time. This happens for a long while and kurogiri feels alone, this is when he starts to think of just leaving and destroying everything. Oboro is silent, he is stuck in a limbo place. Kurogiri thinks he can see oboro's spirit when he is sleeping but that is neither here or there. However, when they meet Eraserhead in the USJ oboro makes a slow awakening. He physically makes kurogiri's body hesitate and that's what causes them to be stuck in Todorokis ice.

4) Kurogiri is shocked of course and after the battle both of them have a conversation. Oboro isn't aware of how it works and doesn't remember anything after the doctors modifications which is when Kurogiri fills him in about what happened. Both start to work harder than ever for a chance at escaping whether it be them escalating their passive rebellious behaviour to AFO or trying to guide shigaraki to a different path.

They try their best, they really do but looks helpless and their chance at freedom is long and far. That is when they choose to slowly collect information in journals and allow themselves to get captured some time after the overhaul arc revealing their identity.

All of oboro's friends (NOT JUST ERASERHEAD LIKE IN CANON) are conflicted, confused and upset. They comfort eachother and all come into different conclusions, scared but so hopeful for a restoration of normalcy in their lives. It is present mic and eraserhead that try to make the first move, trusting the information that kurogiri provides them and slowly help kurogiri. Present mic is the first to come around at first not believing that its oboro but wanting the information, wanting to know if there is a traitor. Secondly, it's eraserhead out of pure hope and denial, he knows it isn't logical but he misses oboro and hasn't moved on. He now needs to understand that oboro isn't oboro but he is much more complex and has went through things. Lastly, it's midnight with a combination of both factors and guilt. She tries to avoid kurogiri as she blames herself for what happend and also starts to rethink her actions as a hero.

Working with the heroes gets kurogiri out of prison and under UA's custody really but he still is quite ominous especially kurogiri who still wants to save/help shigaraki and ends up talking to izuku about it.

I feel like there are way too many ways we can take kurogiri and oboro's characters in, all with different ways and endings but canon managed to do such a horrendous disservice to him so I hope I have given him some justice

(ALSO HAVE OBORO'S FAMILY BE INVOLVED IN THIS)!! like when people find out that kurogiri is also oboro I don't wanna just see Eraserhead perspective but also midnights, present mic and oboro's relatives

[socalledsomethingorother]

my top 5 + when/why they became my favs

5. tomura shigaraki

his backstory hit harder than i thought it would. “an adult’s words are absolute to a child” is a quote i think about too often for my own sanity. this is what gave me reasons to feel sympathy for him, rather than thinking he’s just another boneless light yagami-type villain with no real motives.

4. shota aizawa

i feel like a lot of fans started really appreciating his character after the kurogiri is oboro reveal, but he became a fav here for me. probably because he’s still one of the only people to see katsuki for who he really is. also. hggrhrhhnrgghrhhhhh.

3. touya todoroki

when i say he became my third fav here, i mean when this scene was animated + dubbed. liebrecht’s voice acting gave me chills and made me realize how much i envy and relate to touya. since this realization, i’ve only grown to love him more. bro is breaking my heart.

2. izuku midoriya

yeah i was really late to the party with izuku. i used to resent him for being so forgiving and thought he was just another nice guy mc. then i realized that he’s just a chronic people pleaser like me and my dislike of him was self-depreciating projection 😎

1. katsuki bakugo

i fell in love with katsuki at the same time i fell in love with aizawa. this was when i first realized how good katsuki’s development would be. he’s not just the asshole who was lucky to have been born with a broken ass quirk—he’s deserving of the praise he’s given for his abilities because he worked his ass off for his strength. i thought he was going to be the bully that makes it satisfying when izuku eventually surpasses him as a hero. but he’s not, and this showing of respect towards another person he deems strong was what made me realize how deep his character could get.

Mistress of the Night, Progenitor of Darkness

her fight and fury is fiery; oh, but she loves (cherry wine, hozier)

fanart for summerblack's The Future's Keeper on Quotev

you can clearly tell i havent touched any sort of art materials or my drawing tablet since my 2nd year in uni LMAO

ANYWAYS offering my soul and life and my firstborn to summerblack and their fic!! thank you so much for your hard work :DD their fics either make me twirl my hair and giggling and shit or wail uncontrollably over my phone while stimultaneously worrying my sisters,, there is no in between (i'm very normal i promise)

read their fic. please. im begging. its so good.

the thing here is that the mc from TFK and the mc from Changing History are kinda similar, not just in quirk, but also in my designs of em. the stark difference here is that the TFK mc has brighter eyes (signifying their relatively normal,,ish childhood while the CH mc has darker colored eyes, almost black (signifying that from the get-go, they are Fucked; read the latest chapters and you'll see what i mean)

LISTEN i am half asleep when i drew this at 3am but it shows that in this alternate reality(?) mc accepted Obsy and her quirk in general(the black goo dripping from the top) as it is right from the beginning while it took a dangerous excursion and a villain raid during class for her counterpart (the mc in CH) to FINALLY trust her own quirk and her own sister

slobbering on the floor, prowling, yelling, sobbing at the fact im supposed to draw the mc with the trio BUT i am still not yet over oboro and what happened (he deserves better!) so i couldnt bring myself to do it. mostly because i cant draw when im crying and tears streaking down my skin is a sensory ick.

been listening to a lot of hozier songs lately,, hence the title

might draw more for their works in the future because it tickles all the good chemical in my goo goo gaga brain and i cannot stop my hands

to summerblack, i hope you're having a wonderful day!!

[beantothemax]

Octopath on Sea but Ritsu gets more trauma and more difficulties connecting with others in the future. Oh and the slow fear of drowning in the future but shhhhh

-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/

Ritsu: So. This is- This is how it ends huh? Not with me getting shot or stabbed or some other death but with me drowning after my ship sinks. One of my friends is bleeding and the other telling me that he was never really my friend and it was a whole ploy to join a stupid cult.

Oboro: …Yeah.

Ritsu, scoffing: Is your name even Kazan?

Oboro: Not at all.

Ritsu: Great. Crick is going to bleed to death while I drown and you’re just going to walk away like you didn’t betray us.

Oboro: I did what I had to.

Ritsu: And what is that exactly? I kept being dragged into this fucking cult and I don’t know what they want with me. Am I important somehow? Do I end the world in the future or some shit?

Oboro: Not that I’ve seen no.

Ritsu: Hah. Then what’s the point of all of this? What’s the point of all of your coworkers coming up to me and trying to use me to kill for them.

Oboro: I don’t have an answer to that.

Ritsu: What’s the point of you coming up to me?

Oboro: …I don’t have an answer to that.

Ritsu: Of course you don’t. Of fucking course.

Ritsu: Is there a reason why the Sacred Guard just went and tried to kill us both?

Oboro: Yes.

Ritsu: Will you tell me?

Oboro: No.

Ritsu: Right.

Ritsu: …So now what? You’re just going to kill me? I’m going to drown already so there’s no point.

Oboro: I’m actually here to give you and your friend a quicker death. Drowning is a terrible way to go and your friend is in clear pain. I am quite skilled with the knife so-

Ritsu: Pass. I don’t want you to ever be near me ever again.

Oboro: …Despite what you think I have the best interests in mind. The world is cruel and dirty. Everyone is out for themselves and only cares for their own lives. We’re all just specks in the cold, uncaring, universe and according to the universe, our purpose is to wake up, suffer, and then die. I find a life like that to be unfair.

Ritsu: So what. That’s life. It’s fucking cruel and we have to make do. We make do and then we have to move on because no one really is there to help you. Not even in your grief.

Oboro: And if life wasn’t unfair?

Ritsu: Well maybe I wouldn’t be here on a sinking boat and instead be with my sister and be with Hikari. Maybe that’s what would have happened.

Oboro: Ritsu Hikari is-

Ritsu: Oh shut up. Claude and Arcanette already tried to tell me about “bringing Hikari back”. I’m not stupid. He’s gone. He’s gone and I can’t do anything anymore.

Oboro: For what it was worth, I did enjoy our friendship.

Oboro: …Well goodbye. The endless bottomless sea is always more inviting than life. I hope that brings you comfort.

Ritsu: Gods you actually- Fuck you Kazan. I fucking hate you for making me actually believe I can open myself up again and it won’t hurt like last time. Thanks for proving me wrong and that there’s something worse than death.

Oboro: …Glad I could help.

Ritsu: I hope you drown in the bottomless abyss you love so much.

Oboro: Me too.

Ritsu: …

Ritsu: …He’s gone Crick.

Crick: Oh that’s a relief.

Crick: Are you okay?

Ritsu: The ship is sinking and you’re bleeding Crick. Neither of us are okay.

Crick: Then save yourself. You can do it. Just leave me to-

Ritsu: Crick I can’t get out even if I tried. My leg is broken and I just- You don’t deserve to die alone.

Crick: Oh. Okay.

Crick: It was a good run right? We did our best to get to them despite neither of us having extensive nautical knowledge.

Ritsu: …Yeah. Yeah it was.

KIWI??????? THIS IS REALLY GOOD???? IM GONNA CRY MAYBE?????

ritsu tearing into kazan and just being so so sick of his shit was. very satisfying to read. he’s going through so much in this au he’s earned this. and the whole part where he calls out kazan as the asshole he is for tricking him into opening up again!!!!! yeah!!!!!!!

AND!!!! HIKARI BEING GONE???? CRICK BLEEDING OUT????? BOTH OF THEM JUST?? ACCEPTING THEIR END??? KIWI IT CANT END HERE. TELL ME IT DOESNT END HERE
