OK so I don't focus on nsh often so I don't really have much about them :') the "bastard" square there is mostly just a bias from an angry light red slugcat (wonder who that could be !)

sorry my writing is shit so here's what I wrote from top to bottom:

how are your students in magift?

Hmmmmm that's a good question. They do go to the tournament (Mitsuki is banned from it)

Pharaseum is decent at magift, Refa is especially dedicated and it tends to pay off.

Magistar is very good at magift. They're the Diasomnia of their school if you will. Failynn and Chad are powerhouses. Marquis sucks at it and will always get KOd. Velma will destroy you. And Lillith is deceptively good at it.

Crania is just there to have a good time. Athena is all about showing off. Minnie honestly just backs up Athena. Mika takes it seriously and tries too hard to steer Athena in a different direction.

Dragobog is... Intense. Vivica takes it w a y too seriously and will mow you down. The other dorm members aren't out but they're just as dedicated to the sport.

Penumbra was a magift sports star when she attended the academy and trains students who want to improve.

Mitsuki would be good at it if she was allowed to play.

Lena: What is the most crazy thing you’ve ever done for a crush?

ooohh geez. i could honest to god fill a book with my answers to this question but the first one that comes to mind is: one time in 11th grade we had a massive (by texas standards, anyway) snow/ice storm and my best friend (the one i was/am in love with although i DIDN’T KNOW IT AT THE TIME) wanted mac n cheese from corner bakery, but her parents wouldn’t let her drive to go get it bc the roads were dangerous – my parents wouldn’t let me drive either for the same reason so i walked to corner bakery and then to her house (like 9 miles total, in the snow) to surprise her with mac n cheese. i think i may have also gotten her starbucks if i’m not mistaken. and then later that day (or the next morning i think?) before i walked home i left this bullshit in her front yard 

just in case u were wondering how much of a sappy smitten oblivious romantic i was. we spent the day making those brownie-in-a-mug things and watching movies it was truly straight out of a rom-com. we did some homework too i think. i real life couldn’t feel my feet or my nose for like a full day but the mac n cheese made her smile so i didn’t even notice. can u believe i thought that was platonic? anyways

1.Hi! Do you happen to have any ideas about Sakura's parents? I'm new to the fandom but wanted to write a Sakura-centred story, but I'm not sure how to handle them. Most stories I've read portray them as abusive/neglectful. I'm still reading manga (and watched anime; prefer manga) but as far as I know, they never appeared there. In anime and RTN they didn't make a good impression on me (borderlying emotional abuse, and her dad seems to be dismissive of her feelings and always makes stupid jokes)

Hey, no worries, anon! Now, for your question, I understand perfectly where you’re coming from. 

I will confess that I’m not an anime watcher and don’t intend on being one, but I understand your frustrations. One consistent thing about SP we can ‘depend’ on is their rather annoying penchant for portraying her as horribly as possible and taking her flaws and dialing them up to unbearably high levels. If her portrayal was more congruent with how she is in the manga, I doubt the bandwagon of hatred for her would be as severe, but I digress. 

On to the topic at hand, but as a fellow fanfic writer who frankly loves Mebuki and Kizashi but hates how SP handled them (considering how Kishimoto-sensei designed them himself, it feels like more salt in the wound for us manga fans), I do have some workarounds on how to approach them, and how their inclusion can actually enhance Sakura’s potential with some Sakura-centric trope staples.

Now, with what we’re given, we do approach some problems with them:

Characterization: One of the biggest issues I’ve been able to discern is that both Mebuki and Kizashi seem to tag-team in being horrible to Sakura. Not only is Mebuki pigeonholed in the domineering, naggy, bossy personality trope that almost every Naruto woman has or eventually comes to exhibit by the time they become a housewife, but she also seems to be quite big on devaluing Sakura, too. We see her rag about how much of a slob Sakura is (let alone how she can’t cook; keep your headcanons, SP, I don’t want them) in front of others, but that doesn’t necessarily make Kizashi much better. Why? Well, he seems like he’s whipped in the bad sense of the word, often agreeing with Mebuki and not speaking out against what she says. His redeeming quality is that he seems more laid back and likes to crack puns/dad jokes (I like it, at least), but together? Well, it doesn’t add up to parents that seem to support their daughter. Hell, if canon is anything to go by, it might not be that ridiculous to assume Sakura might’ve cut ties, if it least is alienated and distant. Not what we want here!

Background: Or rather, the lack thereof. Now, while I see this as a huge positive, others don’t. Why? Well, there’s next to nothing on them while almost all of the Rookies have fleshed out backgrounds. Mebuki and Kizashi, meanwhile, are just run-of-the-mill civilians with no real past. Kizashi seems to be a genin while Mebuki is simply a housewife. Whether she was an active kunoichi at some time or not, I doubt we’ll ever know. 

So, how do we fix this train-wreck? These are just my solutions, at least, and how I’ve come to work around these glaring problems.

Kizashi and Mebuki’s dynamic: From what I’ve seen, I really feel that these two’s personalities could actually be really amusing if redirected, so that’s my first piece of advice: redirecting where their vitriol goes, or distributing it more evenly could really salvage their characters without making them OOC. Mebuki’s a nag? Well, I find softening her blows or inserting some humor can help diffuse any potential toxicity. For example, if Mebuki feels the need to carp at Sakura at how messy her room is, maybe Mebuki can toss in some humor and mention that her pile of dirty laundry is starting to become sentient and that she heard it growl at her while she was vacuuming the hall. With Kizashi, I like to have her actually take part in his jokes as the straight man (like manzai that exists as a form of Japanese humor). As for Kizashi, I think the simplest fix would just not o have him take part in any degrading. However, if you eliminate it entirely (which I do and recommend), he can become an active, jokey participant instead of a doormat (which I absolutely do, too), would help loads. 

Mebuki: Like I stated above, you can keep most of her personality while removing the sharp, jagged bits and not have her be unrecognizable. Instead of making her the one who devalues Sakura, make her the tough love, realistic/brutally honest advice parent. What this means is, for example, having Mebuki sit a pre-series, young Sakura down and tell her that being a kunoichi is really tough and that she won’t have an easy time in the Academy. For Interlude-era Sakura when she’s training under Tsunade, make Mebuki snatch away medical textbook Sakura was cramming at midnight and tell her she needs to sleep and has been looking like a zombie in the morning. After one of her deadly spars with Tsunade, have Mebuki blow up at Sakura out of worry, not because she doesn’t think Sakura can’t do it. Have them get into quarrels about how stressed Sakura is, that she should ask Tsunade to ease up a little. Stuff like this, where it’s still flawed but not toxic.

Kizashi: Like I said above, Kizashi is a little rough, but with a little polish, it doesn’t take much to make him shine. Personally, my favorite thing to do with him is make him the parent Sakura confides in and receives really tender advice and assurance from. I see him as the more affectionate of the two, for sure. The one who gave tiny Sakura bear hugs after really rough treatment by her bullies, who tells her they were probably jealous of her. That kind of dad, really. However, what I really love doing is playing with Kizashi’s background as a Genin and make him the one who actually helped train Sakura in the basics. We know Sakura was really adept with shurikenjutsu, trap setting, genjutsu identification and dissolvement, chakra control, and the like? Well, have Kizashi be the one who helped his kid out! Maybe he helped her memorize the Shinobi Rules, who coached her on her aim, who taught her how to expand her chakra control, stuff like that. 

Background: Now, I know this one is a big head-scratcher for many creators, but it’s what I find to actually be the biggest strength and source of inspiration for Sakura-centric AU’s. Why? Because fleshing out her background is oftentimes a massive component, if not plot point! I go into a lot more depth with it in this meta I wrote awhile back with one of the chapters that explores specific tropes, but some of the most fun you can have with Sakura’s lack of background is fleshing it out. And keep Kizashi and Mebuki as her parents because they, too, like Sakura don’t have explored backgrounds. This can entail everything from fleshing out a clan for her (Haruno clan, anyone?) to making Kizashi and Mebuki the descendants of another (Senju and Uzumaki are popular choices) or even inventing kekkei genkai or other cool jutsu unique to their family. The sky’s the limit, really, with where you can take this!

In conclusion, I hope this can be of help to you, anon! Mebuki and Kizashi are a tricky subject to handle, but with a little patience and polish, can be better reflections of themselves instead of the distorted mess that SP warped them into. 

If you have any further questions, don’t hesitate to ask!

Hello Scav friend, my friends and I need to settle a dispute.

Do scavengers have mandibles? We must know, and I figure you would be the expert /j

ok so. I will make a post about my scav headcanons EVENTUALLY, but here is my thoughts

I think scavengers do in fact have mandibles! Their facial structures are so bug to me. It seems like their mandibles can either be visible or not. I think they can make some vocal sounds, but it's very difficult and not effective, instead using their own form of sign language to communicate. Something I think would be cute is that scav pups draw to communicate better because they don't know the language quite well :))

THANK YOU FOR ASK hoarding asks like pearls

[sulfur1c-4cid]

In your description it says you identify as otherkin, cryptidkin, and divinekin, and I’m just curious about what that means to you, as I don’t know too much about this subject.

hello tysm for the ask!! sorry I'm not the best on this subject because I'm still very unsure about my identity but I will try my best! I might get some stuff wrong tho :')

Otherkin is identifying as something other than human. For earthen animals, the more specific term is Therian, which I may be but I'm just not sure anymore lol. As for cryptidkin, I'm not sure anymore? I think it relates to this weird feeling I have, im not sure how to describe it. It's like an odd feeling of comfort and horror that I really resonate with, I also have this image of myself (which I will link here) but that is also partly how I view my deitykin. I think it's both spiritual and psychological that causes me to identify this way. Deitykin is also hard to explain but basically, it's this strange disconnected and low-key hatred for humans (more so the things that humans do, not just humans themselves. I don't hate everyone! Just the bitchy ones ig idk how to describe that). It might also have to do with my cryptidkin, or I might not even be cryptidkin and it might just be deitykin instead. I kind of have this story that I'm not sure of its origins anymore, not really a memory but it's more like me trying to make sense of why I'm here. I'm a little too tired to explain in too much clearer detail so I apologize for that lol. But it's this feeling of attunement and divinity, I guess (I'm really trying to not sound like I'm arrogant because I'm not, I don't view myself as above human lives, or anything's lives really.) I kind of know who I used to be and what I was like, unfortunately I was being too silly about my disdain for humans that they kinda just kicked me out of deity club🔥 basically. This one is almost entirely spiritual. (Bro I forgot to mention, I'm pretty sure I was a god of strong weather, like tornadoes and thunderstorms specifically. I was not a high ranking deity, but still there, idk.) Sorry if this is a ramble because I uh.. I have no idea what I'm talking about, but I hope this helps maybe? Again TYSM for the ask I love asks!!!!
