PlayStation Showcase 2023 Full Presentation by GameSpot

I was going to watch on the official Playstation YouTube, but it had weird login restrictions, so I watched this one instead.

I guess I'm skipping my daily walk, because I'm really into this Playstation Showcase. I started rewatching right now to write my reactions to post to Tumblr. I guess I could just turn on the backyard halogen light and wear a sweater, like yesterday's after-sundown walk.

I'm glad that Playstation learned to not pad the front of their presentations with those big, live action, ads for Playstation in general. I actually liked those ads, but more while watching TV. A nice interruption to watched surely-less-geeky thing I was watching at the time. But these Playstation ads are not really what I watch these special presentation streams for. And I've seen plenty of reaction streamers absolutely writhe with aggravation over these types of ads taking up presentation time. So I'm glad this presentation just cut straight to game trailers.

Fairgame. I really thought the voiceover was from DedSec and this would be a sequel to Watch Dogs. But a modern Robin Hood type story is apt right now. Up until the POV group ran into another group of thieves, and then they started fighting each other over who gets to steal from the rich. It's kind of hard to focus on the "stick it to the corrupt corporations" vibe, when suddenly the people who are all against the corrupt corporations are fighting each other. You can't do that, while blatantly referencing the real life topical problem of corrupt corporations messing up society, while having the equally downtrodden groups fight each other, without also reminding me too much of the other real life topical problem of these corrupt power abusers often turning different groups of downtrodden against each other. It's a real problem. If this game wants to talk about societal power hierarchy problems, then don't spit in the face of the history of these authority figures simultaneously manipulating people to fight each other, to distract them from holding the corrupt authority accountable. I'm sorry to my social studies professor for us making him feel like we didn't learn anything from his class, but I did learn one thing: history is full of equally oppressed groups turning against each other, often at the manipulation of corrupt power's propaganda, as a distraction against solving the real problem, fighting the real villains. So it kind of offends me that this game would have different Robin Hood type groups fighting each other, while blaring this voiceover about how their actions are for justice. But I guess this is a videogame things that videogames need to do…if Fairgame is a Live Service game, where lots of teams of players will be expected to do PVP. And that really feels like the only reason to break the story logic so quickly. Wow, another reason to hate Live Services. I was excited about Fairgame as a single player, but now that I see it's going to throw all story immersion out the window, just to have "shooty shooty team vs team" stuff, I'm just not interested anymore. A shame, because the art design was interesting, especially for a realistic rendering art style.

Helldivers 2. I've never heard of Helldivers 1. So I really thought this was a game adaptation of Starship Troopers. Not the novel, but the movie. lol Which I really like the idea of. I grew up disliking Starship Troopers because it was cheesey, cliche, and I didn't really pay attention to it. (Other than I was really disturbed by the idea that only soldiers can contribute to culture. Really disturbing when only people who has gone through the same training, to all think the same, are the only ones to become writers, artists, etc. Sounds like a slippery slope to stagnant thinking, in-group/out-group mentalities, and then xenophobia.) But after I heard movie reviewers explain that the movie was a parody of the novel, by serving as a satire about how the messages from the novel were actually pretty authoritarian and more like nationalist propaganda than it seemed to realize. Or maybe the novel was aware of it's nationalism and militarism, but didn't realize those things were detrimental. That's exactly what this Helldivers 2 trailer feels like, and I love it. lol Yes, make fun of propaganda trying to polish up nationalism and militarism as good. "War stories" are more palatable in truly fictional settings like sword&sorcery and far future scifi, but we do have lots of those already. It's nice when someone addresses how disturbing it is that all these military shooter games assume a "might makes right", unquestioningly nationalistic perspective. And even better when they make fun of it. lol This trailer was funny!

Immortals of Aveum. When I saw the EA logo, I became completely deflated. But then the art style of this game got to me. I love metalwork, and there's this nicely designed gauntlet, with organic curves, on the avatar's hand, to stare at during the first person POV. And there's so much brightness. Settings during the day. Bright colors. Brightly saturated neons, accenting all the scenes. Interesting little, distinct quirks to the character designs. I know this is probably going to be a mid game, because EA. But I've been thinking a lot lately how so many realistically rendered games look disinteresting because of washed out color palettes and uninteresting art direction. Probably because the last Playstation State of Play I watched was FF16 and that struck me as really washed out in color and designs. Then right before watching this Showcase, I read one of my favorite streamers Tweet that most of this Showcase was too full of samey, gray, washed-out looking games. But I totally disagree. So far, even the art styles using realism, have ensured they use a lot of color that pops, even during dark scenes. I'm even getting impressed by this freaking EA game over it's color palette, for goodness sakes! lol

Phantom Blade 0. Even this game also makes sure to fill scenes with lots of pops of color and interesting costume/character designs! Well, I mean, after that first, drab running gameplay scene. Even in scenes that go more monochrome, they make it look interesting! It's not just gray; that scene of monochrome horsemen was supernaturally black and white. It was more stylish than drab, even though it was monochrome. All these enemies have pops of color: purple fabric peeking out under armor, gold armor, fire, big exaggerated mechanisms shaped like stylized Chinese lions, etc. Ok, so this gameplay with the player character and that gray courtyard was pretty drab. But when his blades go red, he becomes distinctive. I wonder if they only flash red when you do complex combos. I wonder if that was an intentional game design to create subconscious incentive to style on enemies, like in Devil May Cry. Actually, a lot of this gameplay has drab color palettes, the more they show non-prerendered cutscenes. But then the choreography sometimes picks up the slack. I don't know anything about Phantom Blade, like if it is a preexisting franchise, but I do like the Chinese art styles. The architecture, the armor, the swords, the metalwork, etc. There have been so many Japanese setting games lately---which I love---but it's nice to get variety.

Sword of the Sea. Giant Squid is good. ^-^ Do I need to say anything else? Just look at this stylized art style! ^o^ These creature designs, this environmental design, the haunting player character design.

Talos Principle 2. See?! Even this game is a good example of interesting, bright, colorful art design, despite its realistic rendering and serious tone! Look at those stylized gates at the beginning! Colorful, and each distinctly designed! Look at those mountain-sized human statues! Look at this bright, daytime lighting! I think a big problem with a lot of drab, gray game is just nighttime settings, while they try to look so serious and noir. Even this game's darker environments are only partially dark, with sunlight streaming through, even just a little, to make the brightened elements pop. ^o^

Neva. This freaking trailer made me cry. I had been dealing with a lot of nasal problems lately and this trailer so quickly ruined whatever progress I had today. lol It's like an indy cartoon or student films, like finding a treasure on YouTube. But it's from the makers of Gris, so what else was I expecting? lol Besides that, VERY beautiful. Stylized art style, flowers, girl with sword, fuzzy supernatural wolves,…What's not to like? ^o^

Cat Quest: Pirates of the Purribean. Another trailer that I thought was an indie animated short for a moment. ^o^ Cute.

Foamstars. I freaked out when I saw the SquareEnix logo. But I had never seen it styled like that before, so I had no clue what this was about. Then it turned all bright, fun, and carefree. I can only say that SquareEnix must want in on that Splatoon audience. But after all these realistically rendered trailers, with characters trying to look sooooooooooooooooo real, it was so nice to see cartoony, anime-styled characters with flamboyant costume design. And bright and fluffy are things I love. ^_^ I hope this game does well.

The Plucky Squire. I am SOOOOO intrigued by this frequent shifting between 2D art and 3D environments. ^o^ I especially like that the 3D environment looks like a little kid who was a fan of the book that the protagonist is in, and is now making DIY playsets based on that book. I used to do that when I was little too. ^u^ Making things out of cardboard and scrap paper all day, to become environments for my toys to play through.

Teardown. Funny that the pixelated PS5 made an appearance at the end. lol

Metal Gear: Snake Eater. Unfortunately, I got spoiled on this before I saw the trailer. Because it was all anyone online wanted to talk about. lol So watching it, I was just imagining the developers planning the trailer like, "We gotta show off how detailed and realistically rendered we'll be able to make this game." I love animal documentaries, so please do this whole minute, closing up on ants, enough to see their little feet, and all the details on this bird and reptiles. ^-^

Towers of Aghasba. I love that big trees and other plantlife looks like enlarged versions of microscopic plants. Another game with a good example of bright and interesting art direction. But also with interesting creature design. I have no idea what this game is, but I'm intested if someone asked the giant turtle to explain why they had hoped humans had gone extinct.

FF16. Now, I don't want to get massacred by the FF fans, but I mas so unexcited about FF16's art direction. This is what I thought about when I was deflated by drab art direction. Lots of environments, scenes, even major characters were washed out in gray and browns. And on top of that, their inherent character designs, even outside of their costumes' color palettes, just felt too indistinct. When I think about how FF7R took place in Midgar, full of grunge, metal, and darkness, it didn't feel drab, because there were so many pop of light, Cloud himself had that shock of spikey yellow hair, Tifa's outfit was a bold black and white, Aerith was bright pink, they all had unique silhouettes, and all the major characters were so distinct. But FF16's costume designs look too much like regular historical medieval clothing. The environments and NPCs all melt together into this drab, washed out, monochrome. Even these voiced characters during this trailer's cutscene clips all look so washed out with hairstyles so realistic that I wish at least the color or design of their costumes were interesting. Did I just imagine it, or was that girl giving pathos about her backstory designed almost the same as that NPC explaining how your "helping" actually marked them for death? I--I just…I'm SO frustrated with FF16 art style, because the gameplay sounds SO GOOD. Right up my alley. Real time action with devs from Capcom's Devil May Cry team? Yes! I am frothing at the mouth. Switching from human-sized hack'n'slash, to kaiju battles with arena combat styled gameplay? ^o^! OH MY GAWD. And y'know what, whenever there's a kaiju on screen, glowing with magic, the art direction gets much better. …But I can't get excited about the rest of this game, because of the art direction. -_-; I'm sure everyone else will have fun with it, and I hope so.

Alan Wake 2. Really surprised someone besides Alan is going to be playable. I only know a few surface things about Alan Wake, but didn't the first game end with him writing the notes that these FBI agents are finding? Something like that? I kind of like the idea of him writing to the player character, the FBI agents, from beyond a supernatural plane, trying to warn them about monsters, but writing as if they're communicating in real time, through these found notes that look months old or whatever. Also another example of a game with art direction that knows how to break the drab with pops of light. Even in gameplay that looked all foggy, there were streaks of light, peeking in spots, to make each scene more than just a drab, dark wash. But I guess that's necessary when you're making a horror game that supposed to be dark, to scare the player, but also give them enough ability to see the monsters they have to fight.

Assassin's Creed Mirage. Ok. I can't stop pointing it out. Even the domes all hide brightly saturated colors. No art director came in and said everything had to be washed out in grays/browns. Is this a remake of the first game? I'd love it if they could be culturally accurate. I already like what I see of diversity in the characters.

Revenant Hill. Mae? Night in the Woods' Mae??? Oh, just cat. But I love cats. Love this art style. ^-^ Stylized art forever! ^u^

GranBlue Fantasy Relink. See, now this is a VERY bight and colorful game. I'm not saying all games have to be like this. They just have to have at least pops of bright and color, like some of the other trailers in this Showcase so far. This is ALL brightness and color. Which I love, because I love anime. But I'm not saying that any games doing less than this aren't doing enough with brightness/color in their art direction.

Street Fighter 6. I don't know why I didn't think about the customizable player avatar getting the perspective of the story mode. lol I've been so many years into fandoms of games with silent protagonists, it's going to be weird to see SF6 going this route too. lol All the cool, hyperstylized characters doing all the talking to the player, in each scene, while we try to act like the protagonist not talking isn't odd. ^o^;

Ultros. Now this is some interesting art style too. This is what I'd call a "riot of color" and it has so many patterns crammed into lots if crammed shapes too. But somehow, it's not overwhelming. I'm sure the black silhouette foregrounds are a nice rest for the eyes, from all the high saturated colors. But still, even then, how is this not overwhelming at all? It's just pretty! Extraordinarily so! Like an independent artist's work you want to stare at, to see what more you can find. Also, why was my first thought "El Shaddai?". lol

Tower of Fantasy. See how distinctly each character is designed in the anime style? I don't even have to address drabness or color palettes; it's already not a problem. I'm intrigued by that one character flying, not by wings, but just standing on a floating pedestal with a pole. That's a really interesting flying machine. I wonder if you'll have to hop onto it during a platforming gameplay section?

Dragon's Dogma II. Seeing a griffin at the beginning, makes me wonder why more introductory shots following a flying creature don't start with griffins more often. Birds are for the realistic setting movies. Dragons are used for most fantasy movies. But I'm glad to see variety with griffins. But I haven't heard good things about Dragon's Dogma---the anime. Is the game good? Well, would Capcom divert resourced to a sequel if it wasn't? I know nothing about the fandom. And see now another "seriously toned", realistically rendered fantasy setting manages to not look drab, washed-out, or monotonous, simply by having scenes in the day, and making costume design shapes more distinct.

Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2. "Minimal social interaction…adequate enough job…motivated to an appropriate degree"? Sounds good to me! I like this voiceover's dialogue. lol

Resident Evil 4 VR. I thought this game came out already? Or was the previous RE4 VR based on the original FE4, instead of the Remake, and this one is based on the Remake? Get 'em, Leon! lol

Arizona Sunshine II. Lots of second sequels to games I was barely aware of, for this Showcase. I know we're all tired of zombies by now, but making it fun really helps. I love how the dialogue is this guy just barely keeping his mental reason together and having fun. Plus there's a German shepherd dog. ^_^ I grew up with a German shepherd-wolf, so triangle eared, "working breed" dogs are always good in my book. ^-^

Crossfire: Sierra Squad. Honestly, when this trailer first appeared, the exterior of the building was bright, slightly stylized, almost cartoony art style on the building/ivy. And this music was trying so hard to be "tough, hard edged, and cool", that I thought this HAD to be a funny game that will soon reveal they're parodying military shooters. But, no. Just a company trying to fill the gap, in case Call of Duty gets lost to Playstation audiences when Microsoft buys Activision.

Synapse. This is a rogue-like, right? I mean, if the host of the mind you're invading is going to comment on you visiting again, it's implying a rogue-like right? You go into his head, you fight, you die, you get kicked out, you go back into his head to fight again.

Marathon. I honestly didn't think Bungie was doing anything other than Destiny. lol Very interesting cyborg/synthetic android imagery. I hadn't seen the concept of little robots shaped like caterpillars spinning materials for android before. I'm really intrigued. And another great example of bright and colorful, despite realistic rendering and serious tones.

Desinty 2. It's so hard for me to keep track of Destiny's story. I'm usually able to keep track of what games are generally about, even if I don't' play them, and even if I'm not into the fandoms. But what the heck is going on with Destiny??????????? When I first tried to learn about it, I heard they were building up to a story, but then those original game devs left, and a new story was grafted onto their foundations, and I just got really confused. Plus, every time I look at the logo, it reminds me of tighty whities. I don't know why! ;O;!!!!!!! I don't want to be thinking about embarrassing underwear while Destiny is trying to be so serious! ;O;

Project Q. Wow. A Playstation Switch. lol I'm glad that the PS5 on display is the disk version. Makes me feel more secure that Playstation isn't ready to abandon hardcopies anytime soon.

Spiderman 2. (Had to chop up this paragraph because of Tumblr text block restrictions.) At first, I saw this trailer with this beginning scene cut out. So I was really confused why Kraven would have Hunters, hunting FOR him, instead of enjoying the hunt himself. But this beginning scene really helps establish Kraven within a "hunting group" the way aristocrats would hunt. Got me out of the "martial arts anime solo journey" perspective, so that now these Hunters make more sense. But still, I know it's just a meta excuse for the common enemies in the game to be working with Kraven. But somehow, they successfully convinced me that the character I always envisioned as a lone hunter testing his lone strength, could be working with a group. No time to dwell on it anyway, the rest of this trailer is SO GOOD.

Really cool that the symbiote suit seems to have a lot of specialized powers. But that's a lot of programming for a temporary suit---Is Peter going to spend most of this game in the symbiote suit?!?!? ^o^!

I love that you can switch between Peter and Miles.

I like that Genki is helping Miles, through a communicator.

I like that instead of finding The Lizard, they just find his molted skin and heighten the dread by suggesting he's growing bigger.

Kind of weird to put this extra stake to save Connors, because he's able to save Harry. I think it's plenty motivating enough to save Connors because he's Peter's friend, one of his science mentors, and he has a wife and child to bring Connors back to. But maybe they didn't want to repeat the "science mentor" emotional attachment, after the first game being primarily about that. But then the Hunters said aloud that they want to take Connors alive? It kind of lessened the stakes, until I realized they probably want to give him to Kraven for his version of a canned hunt.

I think it's so funny how many people dump on QTEs, but this game's water chase scenes look like it'd be a lot of fun.

Maybe no one needs to talk about this anymore, but I like how modern games have organically fused game objectives into the characters' regular speech. I wonder, if you choose to play Peter instead of switching to Miles during the prompt in Queens, do they use the same dialogue so that you know what Miles is doing while you're not playing some of these parts as him?

I'm just laughing, imagining Genki screaming, looking at the drone's POV, while it gets hurled into exploding. lol

The intriguing thing about foreshadowing Miles noticing something wrong with the alien symbiote suit, is that I can't stop thinking about how the original story must be effected by this new medium. Previously, in the cartoon and comics, this symbiote suit story felt more like a solo battle that Peter had to fight alone. And while I love seeing portrayals of Peter being resourceful and already so competent with science that he could figure these things out himself, I always loved in the animated series, when allies would help him. He spent so much of the 1990s series struggling alone, that any time he got even a little help from others, it felt really precious. In fact, now that I think about it, didn't Connors examine a sample of the symbiote and was the first to alert Peter to it being bad? But for most of the overall series, Peter felt like he was always struggling alone. So I really like this idea of him having Miles to help him fight the symbiote. But also because it'll be a new perspective. In comics and that old cartoon, the medium could lean on internal monologues a lot, and show the internal struggle between Peter being intoxicated with the symbiote's power vs gradually realizing it was turning him into an aggressive jerk. I guess that type of internal struggle is more difficult to portray in videogames, or, less common, outside of games about psychics and fantasy settings that can manifest doppelgangers out of a personality's dark side. But in a comic book superhero setting, set in modern New York, the game medium probably necessitates that Miles fight symbiote-possessed Spiderman, instead of just portraying a mostly internal struggle that Peter is having against the symbiote. And I think that's kind of interesting how mediums change a story. Not for worse or anything, just different, and therefore interesting. I'm intrigued to see how it turns out. And I'm super excited to see Miles fight a symbiote-possessed Peter. I just know that's going to happen, and I can't wait!

Do you ever have specific things you always wanna put in in the background for certain tasks? Like, when I'm reading something for fun but having trouble focusing I always put on the album Endtroducing by DJ Shadow, and if I'm reading something for school and having trouble focusing I put on an hour long loop of Aftermath by Caravan Palace, and if I'm doing some data entry or something with lots of numbers and math I Need To Put On some Kingdom Hearts let's plays in the background or I'll die. In other news I'm tryna reorganize some furniture and I'm struggling 'cause I haven't put on any action thriller movies so that's new

#watched too many action movies last time i organized #whoops #i am but a dog and my own subconscious choices of entertainment is pavlov ringing a bell #similar but not quite but ive talked about this before i think but also when you listen to music while reading or playing a video game #and you end up associating certain songs with certain scenes #the climax of that lets play animal crossing horror thing reminds me of modest mouses dramamine #i write sins not tragedies always reminds me of beating the good ending in that interactive fiction story game called the walmart game #recently i accidentally listened to witcher sountracks too much while playing mana khemia so whoops #thats forever locked together now #i havent even watched the witcher......i played the witcher 1 and gave up after like 2 minutes...#(i hear it gets better so maybe someday ill go back lol)#now time to find some action thrillers #they cant be too good or ill get lost in the sauce like i did with bourne identity #they gotta be just some standard hour and a half ish long half decent shooty bang bang movies dhdhsnfnrnskf #time to search.....

out of character. Something that really irks me sometimes is when people hate Gin for lame-ass reasons. Like buddy, pals, there’re perfectly good reasons for you, the writer, to hate Gin as a character -- and plenty of reasons for your character to, in character, hate Gin as a person. Don’t be lame. Here’s a list, I’ll even help y’all out:

The way he talks is ridiculously stupid and he needs to stop.

His fucking face. That smile. The squinting. What the fuck. Dumbass.

He’s ugly. Gross. Slime.

Cut off Jidanbo’s arm solely to make a dramatic entrance.

The ‘bye bye’ shit is so annoying. Fuck off, what are you, twelve years old, Gin?

Rukia describes Gin’s aura as literally the most unsettling thing. Garbage boy. Stinky.

He was probably ready to kill Momo if Izuru didn’t step in. Whatta nasty man.

He was probably ready to kill Toshiro if Rangiku didn’t step in. Ma’am why do you put up with him???

He was directly linked to leading Momo to Aizen for the stabby stab (version 1) and stood there in the background like a gremlin whilst Aizen made his big bad reveal through her chest cavity.

He had Izuru run Rangiku around like an errand dog and probably told him some lie to keep them both busy whilst Momo’s heart (and chest cavity) was being broken.

Didn’t give a fuck about Toshiro running in and getting his ass kicked by Aizen, sir that’s child neglect and abuse.

Rukia bridge scene. End of.

Almost made a Kuchiki kabob on Sokyoku Hill.

Audaciously apologized to Rangiku like that somehow made anything better.

Lurked instead of intervened when Tousen threw his tantrum and stripped Grimmjow of his arm and rank.

Changed the Corridors so Rukia met up with Kaien 2.0 and received more trauma.

Cut Hiyori in half when Aizen definitely could have just batted her away on his own. Unnecessary evil.

Did all this bad guy shit but then refused to even assist Aizen, mr. Bad Guy Himself, whilst the entire Gotei 13 sought to fight him. Brat behavior.

Wasted Ichigo’s time with a dumb quiz about his Zanpakuto’s Shikai and Bankai. Sir, there’s a war going on and he’s a little preoccupied with trying not to die and let everyone he knows down. He doesn’t care how long Shinso can get.

The dumbest sword ability by far is a shooty shooty sword that extends. The dick jokes are endless. Why are you so fucking stupid. Everyone else’s Bankai is cool and your sword just turns into a long pool noodle that defies physics.

Backstabbing bastard x2.

COULDN’T EVEN FUCKING KILL A SINGLE PERSON IN THE ENTIRE SERIES DESPITE THAT SHOOTY SHOOTY SWORD HAVING A ‘KILL’ COMMAND AND ‘GOD-KILLING SPEAR’ TITLE, HOLY FUCK YOU’RE USELESS.

Died and it meant nothing, for literally no reason, because he’s irrelevant. Dramatic bitch.

Anyways, I hope this helps!

#[ out of character ] masquerade; hide your face #stinkiest man.

Ramblings about Lucifer referencing Bones, “Close your eyes.” and shows influencing each other

That was never just a Bones reference being made and the season finale admitted it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jv_1dJk5yEM

David Boreanaz played the ironically-named Angel on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel: the Series. His character has *so many* parallels with Lucifer (far more than Booth outside of the law enforcement/crime procedural connection).

Angel's spinoff also has noir crime drama aspects mixed with the supernatural starring an immortal protagonist with a dark past and infamously villainous reputation fighting evil as a supernatural private detective in the City of Angels (a city known for its dark underbelly juxtaposed with fame and glamor, broken dreams and chasing eternal youth) and navigating human law (including the LAPD and evil lawyers) while not legally existing.

Angel also fell in love with a blonde human heroine (Buffy Summers) after lifetimes of self-destructive, not-so-heroic behaviors (getting his soul back did *not* make Angel a hero and human Liam was a lecherous drunk with unfulfilled ambitions and father issues) who inspired him to become a better man and make human connections.

AtS made heavy use of sprawling nighttime Downtown L.A. cityscape shots, which Lucifer also shared an abundance of.

During both of their first cases, they failed to save the troubled blonde girl they were trying to help (Tina and Delilah, respectively). They also have a connection inside the LAPD through a blonde cop who also takes their identity secrets pretty badly (Kate Lockley in Angel's case).

Note that Buffy not only screamed (twice, given it repeated during her memory loss in Halloween), but also came after Angel with a crossbow when she thought he'd attacked her mother (it was Darla), so Chloe taking the Devil face reveal (Monster Reveals are iconic old horror imagery) poorly to the point of considering poisoning is par for the course. However, it only took Buffy seven episodes instead of three seasons to get the identity reveal via seeing the horrific second face (arguably also an accident on Angel's part).

They are metaphorically or literally Hell's angels. They also had long stays in Hell or a hell dimension.

Lucifer and Angel are also both Prodigal Sons with long-held grudges against their long-absent fathers (patricide in Liam/Angel(us)'s case) and they're later faced with a situation where they have unexpected, thought-impossible offspring who show up as adults (neither got to raise their miracle child) wanting revenge. Yup, major Connor/Rory parallel there.

Angel is also in a constant struggle with the Powers that Be manipulating his fate and free will (like Lucifer, he's a champion of free will no matter the cost) and making him prophecy's bitch.

Bones famously got jokes about how Booth is Angel getting his Shanshu (made human), since the character is given constant Angel-isms like references to a dark past having killed people (Booth is also named after a historical murderer, in addition to having been a sniper), both being Catholics full of Catholic guilt (note that the Buffyverse is most accurately polytheistic, though Angel does face off against a take on the antichrist--Angel has constant biblical imagery/themes and not just because of vampire iconography), kicking down doors (just not off their entire frames--LOL), turning on a dime and threatening people up against walls, constant wink-wink references to the Buffyverse (familiar casting, references to the Hyperion Hotel, etc...), etc...

The Lucifer finale used the words "Close your eyes." right before Lucifer is sent to Hell. This is literally the BtVS season 2 finale where Buffy kisses Angel and sends him to hell for a century with a stab to the gut (see the season 5 finale, not to mention Lucifer giving up his life for Chloe's à la I Will Remember You).

Note that D.B. Woodside was on BtVS (playing Robin Wood, whose Slayer mother Nikki Wood was killed by Spike). Aimee Garcia was in both episodes of AtS (Birthday--she's older than she looks!) and Bones. See her also playing a cross-wearing religious girl on Supernatural who was slaughtered in a police precinct by Lilith. Kevin Alejandro was also in an episode of Bones.

Tricia Helfer was in an episode of Supernatural playing a ghost who reenacts the night of her death every year. BtVS also had an episode along those lines, but with Buffy and Angelus possessed (not to mention Phantom Dennis!). Lucifer having Dan as a ghost is yet another thing they all have in common (ditto referencing Ghost, Patrick Swayze and/or Unchained Melody--Vincent Schiavelli a.k.a. Ghost's subway ghost was Jenny's uncle Enyos, whom Angelus killed).

Lucifer name-checked Castiel and Supernatural referenced Lucifer using their Lucifer (crime-fighting angel in L.A. made it a double-reference whammy). Supernatural returned the favor again by having Castiel forced to sing in Enochian. Lucifer's reference to his singing voice was already a zing about Misha Collins having to put on that monotone gravel voice and Enochian being far from melodious.

Russell T Davies was quite heavily inspired by the Buffyverse when he revived Doctor Who and spun off Torchwood, so there are absolute tons of Buffy, Angel and Spike respectively in Rose Tyler, the 9th/10th Doctors, Captain Jack Harkness and Captain John Hart (right down to the actor). School Reunion is the episode where the Buffyverse inspiration is most on the nose, complete with Anthony Stewart Head saying "shooty dog thing" in a school setting and a Mayor/Angel-esque speech about the curse of immortality. The Time War gave the Doctor a huge genocide-level guilt complex. Note that the creator of DC comics' version of Lucifer, Neil Gaiman, has also written for Doctor Who and is also the co-creator of Good Omens (the show is brimming with Doctor Who Easter eggs thanks to David Tennant). A barely-recognizable Tom Ellis played Martha Jones' ex-fiancé Tom Milligan during the Year that Never Was, as well.

A lot of shows take inspiration from the Buffyverse and you've probably seen some of them. It isn't just the copycat vampire romance stories either.

Angel's forerunners in turn were a mix of guilt-stricken, rat-eating Louis de Pointe du Lac (his Jekyll/Hyde-esque alter-ego Angelus is closer to the pre-retcon, fully-evil Lestat de Lioncourt, who got woobified into an antihero rocker not unlike Spike--the entire Fanged Four mirror Anne Rice's character lineup), sword-wielding, immortality trope-influencers Connor/Duncan MacLeod of Highlander fighting for the Prize of humanity (akin to Pinocchio becoming a "real boy"--see also Barnabas Collins of Dark Shadows, though he was before vampires became antihero superheroes, not just sympathetic antivillains) and Nick Knight of Forever Knight (vampire detective).

Additionally, Tom Welling was famously the longest-serving Clark Kent of them all (Smallville) on the old WB (there's that DC comics connection, too), so it's not just a Fox shows thing (though Fox, not just Warner Brothers, did indeed own the Buffyverse). One of the least-known things about Clark is that he also has an immortality problem where he wouldn't age parallel to Lois (they wouldn't be able to have kids either) without a workaround. The Kryptonite line directed at Cain/Pierce by Lucifer was quite on the nose! Lucifer and Smallville sort of crossed over even further in Crisis on Infinite Earths, so Tom is canonically the face of both Clark and Cain in parallel universes of the DC multiverse.

Supernatural had quite recently had their own takes on Cain (played by Timothy Omundson, who also played God Johnson) and the Mark of Cain when Lucifer did it. Dan's killer Le Mec was, of course, Rob Benedict, who was God a.k.a. Chuck Shurley, the ultimate villain of Supernatural. Richard Speight, Jr., who was archangel Gabriel/Loki the Trickster, directed a lot of Lucifer's later episodes in addition to being a prolific Supernatural director.

Supernatural and Lucifer use the exact same font for their titles (Supernatural Knight).

The X-Files (which Supernatural referenced constantly) and Supernatural also had stories about nephilim (see the apocryphal Book of Enoch). Lucifer ultimately had two nephilim (forbidden interspecies offspring of angels and humans), even if not saying so as a known concept. Connor can also be compared to the vampire equivalent of being something like a dhampir, though he's not quite that (mostly-but-not-quite-human offspring of two vampires instead of a human/vampire hybrid--see Blade for an actual dhampir). Supernatural has also covered the even rarer cambion species (human/demon hybrid).

INURE

Peeta Mellark x Reader

[ We all know who Katniss Everdeen is, but what if Primrose hadn’t been chosen but another boy from another unfortunate family? YOUR family. ]

Info: This is basically a reader insert and I’ve changed a few rules, not ground breaking though. The reader is a bit bland for now but I plan for his actions to be different. Because he has different moral grounds from Katniss and such. Would appreciate feedback! FEEL FREE TO POINT OUT TYPOS. GRAMMARLY SOMETIMES DOESN’T DO MY DYSLEXIC ASS JUSTICE

Part four: Click here, rooroorara shooty shooty vang vang

Part five: You're right here, silly!

Part six: Click here, war criminal of 1878!

Wattpad acc: L0calxDumbass

The moment the anthem finished, we were taken into custody. It's not as if we were cuffed or anything; a group of Peacekeepers simply marched us through the front door of the Justice Building.

Each year, at least one of the tributes tries to escape; I've never seen one successfully do so.

Once inside, they put me in a room. It's the most prosperous place I've been to. With a thick carpet in the ground and a weird couch made of fabric, I've never seen before.

It was a strange texture, almost like the weird fuzzy stuff in deer's antlers. My father called them velvet; was this the same thing? If so, that's a bit gross.

Despite this, I still caressed the couch; it was oddly comforting. Almost like you're patting a nearly hairless kitten. It switched from smooth to rough each time I ran my hands through it.

Then I remembered that we only had an hour to say goodbye to our loved ones before leaving for the Capitol. I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath in. I didn't want to cry at all; the cameras were trained on me. I'm sure the Capitol would eat my tears up.

The first people who came in were my mother and my brother. Kunal let out a sob as he ran towards me, practically throwing himself onto me. I hugged him, staying silent as he buried his face into my neck, afraid that if he let go, I would disappear.

But I needed to break it one way or another. "Mother," I called, my voice detached. Her green eyes met mine, her lips quivering. I gulped down my spit, taking another deep breath in. "Do you. . . Have any idea on how you'll support yourselves. . ?" I asked.

Her eyes landed on the thick, red carpet. "Not as of now," she answered grimly, "But Katniss' mother offered me some work at the apothecary,"

My arms around my brother tightened. Maybe Gale and Katniss could bring them some of the game as well, though I wouldn't count on it. Why would they help us when they have other things to worry about? It's not as if I could teach Nal how to hunt either. The boy's frightened by his own shadow.

All he's good for right now for picking flowers as much as I love him. A sigh escaped my lips, my chest falling slowly as the reality sunk in.

"Well, you must think of something," I told her, my brows furrowing. "I'm not going to come back; I won't be able to support you and—"

"No!" she barked, "No! You will come back, Y/n." she proclaimed, her eyes shaking. She clenched her, fists, "Swear that you will."

Bitterness rose within me. "Tell that to the Capitol, mother," I said coolly. "If I die, then I—." My words were cut short by the sobbing of my brother.

He sniffled, pulling away from my now wet neck. "You'll win, won't you?" he croaked, wiping his eyes with the sleeves of his reaping clothes.

I felt my heart stop; what was I supposed to say to him? "No, Nal. I will surely die, don't count on it," a lump formed in my throat.

My eyes landed on my mother, who gave a stern look. It told me to lie, if not for her sake, then for my brother's. With shaky hands, I held my brother's shoulders. "I'll make it out; then we can— gather some flowers in Victor's village, yes?"

Nal nodded, hugging me once more. I took a deep breath before I started explaining what they should do. With mother possibly getting a job at the apothecary, perhaps they have a chance to survive, after all. Though I'm not sure, that's such a pleasant thought with the fact that I will die.

Soon enough, a Peacekeeper was at the door, telling them their time was up. I gave Nal a hard squeeze before pushing him off. My mother nodded at me; her strawberry blonde hair bounced as she did so. "I love you both,"

The words were stuck in my throat; I couldn't say them. Maybe it was because of my strained relationship with my mother or because I hated the fact that I had just given my brother a false sense of hope. I simply watched as they walked away, hand in hand.

Nal's watery blue eyes looked back at me one last time, a look of sadness. He knew I was lying. I sounded unconvinced when I told him. My posture slumped; I felt horrible. Our maker is siis merely, I suppose.

The next visitor was unexpected; Peeta's father, the baker. My gut churned; I was off to kill his son soon. Why has he come to visit me? Perhaps he has come to beg me not to kill his son? Not that I could either way, Peeta was stronger than me: it was clear as day.

He handed me a small piece of parchment. It was filled with warm cookies. A delicacy. He must've visited his son; after all, why would he just me cookies? I was about to die anyway; why feed a dead man?

I let out a huge breath, "How was the squirrel?" my voice pierced through the thick silence. He shrugged, "Alright," he answered. Then another wave of silence hit us. I sniffed awkwardly, the scent of fresh bread entering my lungs.

I couldn't think of anything to say. What was I supposed to do? ApoloApologisebe, but I never really liked apoloapologisingee no need to. If I'm sorry, then I'll show it. We sat in awkward silence before the Peacekeepers told him his time was up. He stood up, clearing his throat.

"I'll keep an eye on the little boy, make sure he's eating," He stated before leaving. I felt the pressure lift from my chest. They may not like me much, but Nal was practically an angel to them. An angel born in a family of rebels, I'm guessing, is their thoughts.

The next guest then entered. Madge. Her expression wasn't weepy nor evasive, nor did she wear that bright smile she always had when she was around me. It looked urgent. She walked straight to me, the urgency in her tone quite surprising, "They let you wear one thing from your district in the arena. One thing to remind you of home, will you wear this?" she holds out a circular gold pin that was on her dress earlier.

My brows furrowed, "Your pin?' I said. Does she really to die wearing rich-people-things? That hasn't even crossed my mind. . .

"I'll put it on your tunic, alright?" She said, not waiting for my answer as she leaned in and fixed the bird on my chest. "Promise me you'll wear it to the arena, Y/n. Promise me," She took my hand, her thumbs rubbing the back of my own.

Compared to Peeta's, hers was cold yet soft, almost as if she was nervous, worried. But why would she? I barely talk to her; she's the one who always strikes a conversation. All I do is nod and disagree at certain times.

She leaned closer to my face; I gave her an uncertain smile, pulling away. "Thank you, Madge," I muttered. She nodded, letting go of my hands. "Please, stay safe," her voice trembled as she rushed out of the room. I was left standing there, confused. What was that? Why did she visit me despite my rudeness earlier?

Next was Gale and Katniss. I didn't hesitate to hug both of them before pulling away with a sigh. "Hey, you'll be fine," Gale reassured, patting my shoulder. I stayed silent, only nodding. Katniss gave me a pity smile, "I'm sure it would be fairly easy to get knives, Y/n."

A sigh left my mouth, "I know— I just— Don't want to—" I stammered, making a stabbing motion with my hand. Gale gave me a pitied look, "It's just like hunting, Y/n. You're the best hunter we know," he said.

"They're not animals. They think; they're armed." I reasoned, my voice trembling. Why did I have to feel these emotions now? Maybe reality has finally settled in, the truth that I'll never see any of these faces again. On the off chance that I do, I'm sure they'll view me differently, a cold-blooded murderer.

"What's the difference, reale said grimly. Those words echoed in my head as they went away with the Peacekeepers. What is the difference? We're all just feral dogs forced to fight or cocks pit against each other.

I took a deep breath as I got called to ride a wagon to the train station. It was a relatively short ride. We never really had the luxury of these; we always had to travel by foot.

I silently thanked myself for not crying; there were insect-like cameras trained onto my face. Thankfully, I knew how to act, to bite my tongue. If I hadn't, I'd probably be screaming profanities. My eyes glanced onto the television screen; I look bored. Which, I surprisingly was.

It was as if my spirit left me already.

Peeta Mellark, on the other hand, had obviously been crying. However, he didn't even try to hide it, which was quite odd. Was this his strategy? To appear weak and vulnerable to assure the other tributes that he was no threat? This worked for a girl from district 7. Johanna Mason.

She seemed frightened, a cowardly fool that no one bothered about her until only a handful left. She then killed them all, with no problem whatsoever. I remember watching this game, quite shocked. She sold her act to me, but then again, maybe I'm just oblivious.

This worked for her because she looked frail, weak. Peeta applying this strategy was quite odd. Not only did he not look soft, but he was also jacked. He just looked like a big doofus. All those years having bread to eat and hauling trays made him physically capable.

Annoyance rose through me when we had to stand by the train's entrance while cameras gobbled out images up. I was sure I no longer looked bored but rather pissed. It wasn't like I was about to put on a pretty smile for them. These jester-dressed-worms should know how I feel.

Finally, we boarded, and the train began to move at once. The speed took my breath away. It was going faster than I could ever think of. The scenery around us just blurred—a mix of the neutral colour palette that made up District 12.

We were taught about coal in school. Some basic maths and reading before it circled back to coal again. Our district was used for coal mining, even hundreds of years ago.

Then there are the weekly lectures about the history of Panem, which never fails to annoy me. It's all blather about how we owe the Capitol because of the rebellion and whatnot.

I knew they're hiding something; we couldn't have lost that easily. I always think about this whenever I'm up in the trees, daydreaming, which is why I'm always the last one to arrive at the hill.

The tribute train was much fancier than the room at the Justice building. We were given our own rooms, a dressing area and private bathroom with cold and hot running water. We've never really had hot water readily available at home; we had to boil it.

Though I can't say, I like it, with all that effort I just end up not liking the bath. I much prefer the cold, flowing current of a river.

There are drawers filled with fine clothes, and Effie Trinket told me to do anything I want, wear anything I want, everything is at my disposal. Just be ready for supper in an hour. I peel off my father’s tunic and take a cold shower. I’ve never had a shower before. It’s like being in the rain, inky much tamer. I dress in a dark green shirt and pants, trying my hair to the usual, small pa

At the last minute, I remember Madge’s little gold pin. For the first time, I get a good look at it. It’s as if someone fashioned a small golden bird and then attached a ring around it. The bird is connected to the ring only by its wingtips. I suddenly recognise it—a Mockingjay.

Funny little birds, my favourite creature in the forests, that's for sure. These were a slap to the Capitol's face. They genetically altered animals as weapons. Muttations as we call them, or Mutts for short. One particular kind was a bird they labelled Jabberjay, able to memorise and repeat whole human conversations.

Homing birds, exclusively male that were released into regions where the Capitol’s enemies were known to be hiding. After the birds gathered words, they’d fly back to centres to be recorded. It took people a while to realise what was going on in the districts, how private conversations were being transmitted. Then, of course, the rebels fed the Capitol endless lies, and the joke was on it. So the centres were shut down, and the birds were abandoned to die off in the wild.

But they didn't die; instead, they mated with the female mocking birds and produced this weird species that can replicate both bird whistles and human melodies. They've lost the ability to enunciated words but could still mimic a range of human vocal cords.

My father used to sing them a lot. I guess he passed that habit down to me. Whenever I'm not doing anything, I find myself singing to the hummingbirds, who surprisingly listen and replicate my Father's song. It was a simple melody, made of 10 notes at least.

It warmed by heart, especially at times where I miss him. I smiled, fastening the pin to my shirt, the dark green as its background.

Effie came to collect me. I followed her through a narrow, rocking corridor into a dining room. There's a table where all the dishes are highly breakable. There waiting for us was Peeta Mellark, the chair beside him empty.

"Where's Haymitch?" Asked Effie Trinket brightly.

"Last time I saw him he said he was going to take a nap," said Peeta. "Well, it’s been an exhausting day," said Effie Trinket. I think she’s relieved by Haymitch’s absence, and who can blame her?

Food came in courses. Though I barely touched the carrot soup, the chocolate cake, lamb chops nor the mashed potatoes. I wasn't going to eat this, not from the Capitol.

My jaw clenched as Effie told me to eat up, smiling brightly at me. I gave her a pained smile, slowly taking a bite of the lamb on my plate before swallowing it roughly.

A swirl of guilt formed in my stomach, was I eating really this luxurious food whilst Nal and mother struggle? I sighed, digging my nails into my palms.

Peeta looked at me oddly as he stuffed his face, he nudged my side and nodded towards the food. I simply shook my head, pushing the plate away.

Effie put her lips together at my stubbornness. She was muttering something about having no manners.

We go to another compartment to watch the recap of the reapings across Panem. They try to stagger them throughout the day so a person could conceivably watch the whole thing live, but only people in the Capitol could really do that since none of them has to attend reapings themselves.

One by one, we see the other reapings, the names called, the volunteers stepping forward or, more often, not. We examine the faces of the kids who will be in our competition. A few stand out in my mind.

A monstrous boy who lunges forward to volunteer from District 2. A fox-faced girl with sleek red hair from District 5. A boy with a crippled foot from District 10. And most hauntingly, a twelve-year-old girl from District 11. She has dark brown skin and eyes, but other than that, she’s very like Nal in size and demeanour. Only when she mounts the stage and task for volunteers, all you can hear is the wind whistling through the decrepit buildings around her. There’s no one willing to take her place.

Last of all, District twelve. It showed Nal getting called and me volunteering. The commentators weren't sure about what to say regarding the silence. I only smirked at this, crossing my legs in amusement. Just in time, Haymitch fell from the stage, earning a comical groan from the commentators.

Peeta silently took his place on the stage; we shook hands and then just cut to the anthem.

Effie Trinket is disgruntled about the state her wig was in. "Your mentor has a lot to learn about presentation. A lot about televised behaviour."

Unexpectedly, Peeta laughed. "He was drunk." He said. "He's drunk every year."

"Everyday," I added, finally breaking my silence streak with a smirk. Effie makes it sound kike Haymitch just had rough manners that could easily be dealt with.

"Yes," She hissed "How odd you two find it amusing. You know your mentor is your lifeline to the world in these Games. The one who advises you lines up your sponsors, and dictates the presentation of any gifts. Haymitch can well be the difference between your life and your death!"

Just then, Haymitch staggers into the compartment. "I miss supper?" he slurred. Then he vomits all over the expensive carpet and falls in a mess.

"So laugh away!" said Effie Trinket. And so I did, I barked out mocking laughter as she hopped in her pointy shoes around the pool of vomit and fled the room.

"FAMILY??" [DORI SAKURADA FAN FIC]

Pt.1 Pt.11 Pt.111

Pt.1v [wip]

[AIB Cast Masterlist]

Summary: Ila,Ace and Chloe discover's that Dori's Characters are in their universe,but not only those 3 will know..but the other's will know too..soon enough

Warning!: none

Genre: Crack

ENJOY THE STORY

Everyone stood silently there in the middle of the room,Dori and Ila went to the couch to sit down. Dori gesturing his Character's to si down too,Dori wad sitting right beside all of his Character's while Ila,Chloe and Ace were in front of them all. Chloe's eyes we're focused on Niragi and Suguru, she tried to hold back a smile that was forming on her face.

She was smiling all because of her favorite character existing in her universe,every fan would react just like her..except for Ace,her curiosity got the best of her as she examined all of Dori's character's is curiosity. Ila being herself didn't say a word,she is right now too focused on thinking on how Dori's Character's get into their universe.

"Okay now,how can I explain this to the three of you?" Dori said,clapping his hands while getting up from his seat "Oh!,I know how..so..ano...yesterday I came home from work and well..got inside my house to see these dudes here" Dori said,gesturing to the 6 of his character's.

"Just like that?,you didn't questioned them on how they all got here?" Ila asked,arching a brow"Well I did,and they were all the same. They said they fell asleep and just ended up in my house" Dori said,going back to the kitchen to grab the popcorn he made"So you guys just fell asleep?" Ace asked. All of them nodded eagerly at her "THAT IS SO COOL!" "I've Always want to meet you!" Chloe said excitedly pointing at Suguru and Niragi "well I would like it if you shut your trap!" "EEEEEEEEK!" She screeched almost passing out on the couch"gurl!,you Better calm down" Ila told her,while patting her shoulder"Oh come on Ila!,I know you're a Niragi Simp too!,you have to screech inside right?" Chloe said with a wide smile of excitement "well..i mean you're not wrong...BUT THATS NOT THE PROBLEM HERE" Ila said shutting everyone up"the problem is,is that why did they suddenly got to our universe?" She asked"true" Ace said crossing her arms against her chest.

"Maybe we should introduce ourselves?,or do you guy's already know who we are??" Ryuichi said,while petting Fanta that is on his lap.

[AFTER EXPLAINING]

After the whole chaotic explaining to the three girls,they all decided to hang out with each other..for example!,Niragi trying to avoid Chloe AKA his number one fangirl by running around the living room for some reason.

Ryuichi,Suguru,Mugi and Ace are in the backyard playing with Fanta,teaching Fanta Some tricks that the four know that dogs do. They even tried to train Fanta on trying steal Niragis rifle so that the four of them could bury it somewhere in the backyard as a prank...even though they are going to get killed after they got caught.

Fukami trying to flirt with Ila on the couch,as she watches the man's hand getting closer to her cheek,she panicked so she grabbed the nearest object that she could grab,and that object is Fanta as she held Fanta in front of Fukami's face as Fanta looked at him cutely and proceeded to lick Fukami on the face multiple times,which made Fukami scrunch up his nose in annoyance as Ila just wheezes in the background at Fukami's change of emotions.

Dori smiles at the whole scene as he was in the kitchen making sandwiches for everyone.Fukami came in the kitchen, turning on the tap and rubbing his face with water all because of Fanta's slobber on his face. Dori just chuckled as Fukami looked at him squinting his eyes a bit annoyed "And what are you laughing about?" Fukami asked him "Nothing,nothing!..it's just that try not to flirt with her,she's Islam and in Islam you shall not date but instantly get married with the one that you love the most" Dori said with a soft smile "Wait..so that means will she accept if i propose to her-" "No!,no she will not Fukami. She already showed on how she doesn't like you and that she is completely uncomfortable on watching your drama" Dori said,putting the sandwiches on a metal tray while grabbing one to only shove it inside Fukami's mouth to shut him up "Have fun eating Fukami kun!" Dori said grabbing the tray and walking out of the kitchen.

"Hey guys!,I made sandwiches!. Come and get em!" Dori sat the tray down onto the coffee table of the living room,grabbing one sandwich for himself. Ila grabbing one,when she was about to bite it she noticed a piece of meat in there "Is this halal meat or did you buy it from the supermarket?" She asked Dori "Don't worry,I bought the meat from the halal mini market that you always go to,so you can eat it" Dori replies,she shrugs and bit on the sandwich.

When Niragi was going to bite on his sandwich, Fanta quickly took it out of his hand and ran away to his dog bowl to eat it "Oi!,I already gave you food!" Niragi said as he chases Fanta around the living room. Everyone laughed at the scene as they all sit on the living room couches and decided to watch a movie together.

[TIME SKIP]

The three girls said their good bye after the movie ended, Dori closing the door as they left.

The next day,Dori already signed Suguru,Mugi and Ryuichi into their schools. Suguru explains to Dori that,that he forgot the he was a highschooler,Dori didn't believed him at first until he told Dori tye things that he learned from his school. Right now Dori is in his car with the three of them plus Taketo in there too,when the three of them first saw the principal of the school,they though that the principal will question on why Dori's so called Son's look exactly the same like on of his characters from his drama's..but surprisingly,the principal didn't asked at all. So all its left to do is to drop off the three of them at their school "Okay,we're here. You three behave..Especially YOU yous mister" Dori said,looking at Mugi from through the mirror "psh! What about me?" "Do not be H#rny to girls,just do whatever a normal high schooler would do,you got that?..or do you want to be suspended,because this is the only school that is a bit far away from the house" Dori explains "Okay okay!,I'll try my be-" "There is no trying Mugi,I want you to just be normal..ONCE!,I'm going to kick you out of the house if you ever touch any girls in this school" "Fine!" Mugi said crossing his arms. Taketo smiling at him "C'mon Mugi kun,you can do it!. And make sure you get straight A's!" Taketo said Patting Mugi's back,him still holding his broken electric guitar "Can we get out now?" Suguru asked,looking at Dori from the passenger seat "Yes you may,just keep an eye on Mugi here" Dori said,looking Mugi then to Ryuichi "We will!" Ryuichi chimes as the three of them got out of the car,leaving only Dori and Taketo in there.

"So,where are we going?" Taketo asked Dori "We're going to my work place where I'm going to shoot as Niragi and Suguru" Dori explains as he starts up the car again "And? Why are you bringing me?" "Because,remember that I told you I have a friend of mine that's in a band?,yeah that. He said that he needs one more guitarist in his band" Dori say's again as he drove off from the school. Fukami and Niragi found their usual jobs,Niragi as a game engineer and Fukami works at a Café and a partpart time professor at a college,than unfortunately..Ila was in.

Fukami begged to Dori that he wanted to be a part time professor in that college,Dori was confused until he realized that Ila and her other friends were in that college. He knew that Fukami liked Ila,since the other day Fukami was flirting at her,resulting a slobbery lick from Fanta after that. Back again,Dori parks the car at the parking lot of the studio as he and Taketo got out of the car,walking towards the studio "So who's this friend of yours Dori kun?" Fukami asked as he clutched on his broken guitar more "You'll see" Dori responded "What if people would question on why I look like you,or maybe they watched my movie?" "Well,most of them Watched Even" "Whaaaat!?,that's the title of my movie!?,pff- Lameee~" Taketo whined as they both got in front of the studio's door "Okay..you ready Takehito?" Dori asked looking at him "Yup!,ready as I can be!,can't wait to see my new teacher!" Taketo chirps as they got in the studio.

They got in the studio to be met with stares and whispers,Dori noticed this and so does Taketo,the only one that is nervous between the both of them is Dori,while Taketo just greets at people with his sweet and playful smile. Dori gets annoyed by this and grabs Taketo's wrist,dragging him through the halls of the studio to the main one.

They got in the main studio to be met with then one and only Director Shinsuke Sato "Dori!- what the who's this-" "I can explain later,can you gather everyone so that I can like..explain??" Shinsuke nodded as he called everyone to gather around Dori.

[HOW MANY MINUTES LATER]

After explaining,everyone understood and started chatting with Taketo being friends with him. Dori just sigh's and sit's on a nearby chair as he looks at Taketo from a far "So..why is he carrying a broken guitar?" Dori looks at Nobuaki who asked him,Dori was already in his Niragi costume While Nobuaki is already in his Hatter costume that had fake blood on bus chest..a hole to be specific..a fake one "Well,he's a band leader. He plays the electric Guitar,it's broken because he threw it by accident because he couldn't controll his anger" Dori explains to Nobuaki "I see he has some pride In him..but ok guess he's just frustrated and and went back to his normal giddy happy self" Nobuaki said sitting besides Dori "Hey Nobu do you remember that you told me that you needed another guitarist in your band?..well Taketo here..is the perfect person to be in your band"

Sorry for the shooty ending...i'm tired right now and I'm trying to find some fluffy Niragi fics..i really want a pre broderlnad Niragi fic right now,but I can't seem to find one.

Can you guys like recommend me some fluffy Niragi fics? Thanks and love all of you :3.
