one (understandably) underappreciated thing about madara is that he's one of the oldest characters in the series,,,, yet even when he's literally a wrinkly old caveman on life support he never switches from using ore to using washi.
almost every other old man character uses washi, and even some of the ones that barely qualify as middle-aged (mr raikage sir you are 47???? hashirama and tobirama are even worse; you cannot tell me either of them made it past 35)
meanwhile madara's all "whatever i'm gonna get revived anyway i don't have to change shit"

gerrymicheal labyrinth au
i’m right and i should say it, but also how has no one done this before me?
obviously gerry would be sarah, and michael would be jareth (they’re both blonde trickster characters who live in and have some level of control over an ever changing maze. please tell me someone else sees my Vision™️)
outside of just that i feel like you could take it a couple different ways:
just a straight up au, no fears or anything just micheal the goblin king and gerry the fantasy loving goth. literally just the plot of labyrinth but dropping these two into sarah and jareth’s places.
more of a fusion, the fears do exist but the labyrinth is either a part of the spiral or just flat out Is the spiral in this universe. bonus points for having gerry learn about the labyrinth and it’s monstrous king from either meeting/reading a statement from sarah herself about a certain red leather bound spiral leitner
is purely self indulgent crack, they watch the movie together and gerry mentions how hot he thinks david bowie is. micheal hears that and spiral logic says “hm, kidnapping and threats in a nearly impossible maze huh? i can do that!”

bit of translation+parsing through the shooting scene
saw someone say they didnt know it was a model gun so yeah. gun's not real guys free my boy he did nothign wrong
so the insomnia mv was edited together in a purposefully ambiguous way, with scenes that are nonchronological or metaphorical, representing fuchi's chaotic mental state.
first there's the shooting
then this shot of a truck driving itself
which then cuts to the seven car pileup
and then transitions to the news story covering it, presumably the next day
translation: indiscriminate shooting with a model gun at shibuya scramble crossing. an indiscriminate crime?
below that: passenger car, truck, minivan etc. involved in seven-car serial collision incident
the date and time is 11pm on the 28th of march, which happens to be 1 hour before what I'm assuming is fuchi's 18th birthday
sidenote: this crossing is literally the busiest pedestrian crossing in the world
anyway the police come for him and he runs for it.
'under arrest: occupation unknown, suspect fuchi sunao (18)'
then there's this sequence of him wrestling for control with his inner child, which is obviously not meant to be taken literally
along with this shot of him tumbling down the stairs into the path of a truck
however, that stairwell is nowhere to be seen in the shot after he's actually been hit by the truck, and if you look closely he still has both shoes on his feet
so we can infer that the whole sequence did not happen in reality
then there's this newspaper from the 30th of march. the headline says 'successive accidents in tokyo'. on the right: 'collision with a driverless* truck' and on the left: 'accident in the same spot as...' (cut off)
*literally: in motion with no driver(human), not referring to self-driving technology
the words are blurry but basically the right part describes the seven-car pileup from the 28th again, and the left part describes fuchi's collision with the self-driving truck. the good news is at least the pileup doesn't seem to have killed anyone, with the text describing 10 people with light to severe injuries, and 2 people in a coma.
the caption to the left of the photo says it's the scene of the accident, taken at 11pm on the 29th in shibuya, tokyo
so yeah piecing all that together, fuchi went on a sleepwalking shooting spree with a model gun on the night of the 28th of march, caused a massive traffic accident that injures several people, presumably just??? left?? and went home?? they just let him? i guess all the people ran away or were too busy dealing with the 7 smushed cars. then on the night of the 29th he sees the news on the tv, the police knock on his door and he runs. one mental breakdown and dreamworld sequence later he ends up getting hit by a truck in the same intersection as before.
edit: as some in the notes have pointed out, the truck is reported as 'driverless' because his zingai mr. creepypasta was the one driving it, and it's invisible to most normal people. it's also foreshadowed (represented?) by this shot during the scene where his child self is rampaging.
anyway now he's in jail. rip.

Who is captain joncon
this requires being insane on a few levels but basically toby stephens (flint in black sails) is unequivocally jon connington from asoiaf i think it’s the most widely recognized fancast if you count the 30 people on tumblr who know who he is like that IS joncon. and my exposure to him up until now has just been joncon gifsets so when i watch black sails all i see is captain joncon. and i realize that unless you’ve been entrenched in asoiaf fandom for as long as i have this will mean nothing to you but i don’t think before i post so it’s not really a me problem
