#uwo cool kids

[kehaisntexist]

i have a little story time and the reason why i mentioned that

I was chilling in an online game where you can design a character right, and of course i made UWO eugene because i love him, and then someone came up to me and they said oh wait i played that game years ago, and then i went oh that's awesome you know this novel so we went on and on talking about it

I thought that person was like the cool ones like y'all, but deadass guess what

they suddenly mentioned about how they used to PAIRED Eugene with boss......

and chat what's even worse that they did not know there was a sequel of one of the ending ( charlie in underworld ) .......... In CONCLUSION they shipped TEEN eugene WITH boss. minor. Eugene. boss. I'm not kidding. and NO they STILL weren't ASHAMED of it and they talked about the pair as if they still love it.... oh and they also defended that one BossEugene TikTok account

[piece-of-hweat]

So. About Danny Phantom and Underworld Office...

Quick break from my Little Nightmares brain for a sec, I wanna talk about stupid ghost creatures.

Recently, I rediscovered a whole ass discord thread I made a year ago, which was literally filled with Charlie in Underworld/Underworld Office stuff. What is Charlie in Underworld and Underworld Office? Well, the first novel (Underworld Office) is a visual/digital novel about a kid named Eugene who stumbles upon the ghost realm. They are also adopted into a found-ghost-office-family. Important note: Eugene's soul can exit their body while they rest. So basically, going ghost, but not really. (the second thing/sequel just follows the redemption arc of an antagonist, Charlie, from the first game)

Now. Danny Phantom. A couple of months ago, my friend introduced me to the show as well as the Phandom, and gotta say. It's pretty cool. Danny Phantom is a cartoon series about a lil silly dude named Danny Fenton. He is half ghost. Because of his half-ghost-ness, he can "go ghost". This is where he turns into a ghost and kicks ghost-ass.

Alright, let's regroup. Now that you know a bit about both fandoms, remember that note from earlier saying that Eugene can "go ghost"? Yea. See where I'm going with this?

My proposal, fellow DP and/or CIU/UWO fans, is to make a crossover AU. Why? Because I need it. I need these two idiots to bond over the fact that they both have connections to ghosts and how, in a way, they're both half-ghosts.

What is the plot/storyline? No fuckin clue All I have is:

Danny's been Danny Phantom for a while now

Eugene moves into Amity Park. Danny, honestly, can't really give two shits about that.

One day, Eugene and Danny meet, they become friends and bond over the fact that they're both dead and alive.

Danny meets the Office Ghosts and they both become allies or smth (tbf, they both fight monsters/bad ghosts)

Both Danny and the Office have a common goal (perhaps a conflict they both want to solve? Maybe)

Now, as for lil stupid notes:

Danny is creeped out by Boss and River. (Boss is cold and Danny feels like Boss would just casually murder him if he looked away for 0.001 seconds. River is just chaotic in a "high-aunt" way. The shit she does probably scares Danny in a "BRO WTF" way)

Eugene and Danny, unlike the other ghosts, are more warmer-coloured and less monotone.

Charlie will spit on Danny's grave and Danny would do the same. They'd probably hate each other's guts in a sibling way.

Luke, Oliver and Joy would probably meet Sam and Tucker. (Tucker and Oliver would honestly be besties ngl. Joy and Sam can both judge each other silently over a cup of coffee)

Alright, that's all I have to offer. Hope you'll uh, consider this possible AU. Um. Have a nice day or night. Don't turn into a half ghost. Or do, I don't know man--

Could I offer you a baby black dragon in these trying times?

I got this dnd idea where several kids get turned into dragons (through ‘cursed’ amulets), each a different colour. I don’t think I’ll ever develop it much further, but I can always make some cool art.

Idk how black dragons normally handle their young, all I know is that they have a very “hands off” approach, and leave the protecting to their lizard folk slaves. But I thought it would be funny if the adult black dragon was so genuinely confused when a whirmling -who they just presume was theirs- is so nice and sweet to animals, but says things like “we sacrificed a dude using that flower’s poison once” and “my mother told me to always take care preserving the eyes, or our god wouldn’t accept the sacrifice.” And the adult dragon is just like ??????????

Anyway, I’m tired. Good night uwo

Since ask were open, wanted to send an ask! How about some headcanons of Lemon demon/Monster on a sleepover at their s/o's house? (including with skid and pump if you want UwO), like watching movies, chilling on piles of pillows and other cool sleepover stuff? Thank you!! ^^

Sleepovers are a new concept to Lemon. 

But seeing that you invited him, as well as Skid and Pump, to spend the night at your place--he couldn’t refuse the offer!

The kids told him to bring the basic necessities of a “spooky sleepover” (pillows, blankets, movies, snacks), and he goes a liiiiiitle overboard.

Though with the abundance of pillows and blankets, you could also introduce him to pillow forts! You’ve all assembled one in the living room area.

You look at the movies Lemon brought and find some flicks that are a bit “too scary” for the kids, but fortunately you have Nightmare Before Christmas, so you settle on that!

Skid and Pump have never seen it and are ecstatic when they see Jack the Pumpkin King. They sing along to most of his songs (even humming This Is Halloween as they draw).

They’re just on the floor while you and Lemon are cuddling on the couch.

Of course, he makes everyone some soup to enjoy for dinner while watching another movie.

In the later hours, surprisingly enough it’s Lemon who falls asleep first, snuggled into your chest and purring away as you’re laying down.

The spooky kids jump up in unison upon seeing this, though you just smile and hush them, insisting they let their father figure rest.

Pump takes a picture of you two, sharing it with Skid, before they both promptly flop back onto the pillows, falling asleep themselves.

As you soon doze off, you just think to yourself: ‘Yeah we make awesome parents.’

You’re 100% certain Lemon would agree.

Magical School Girl Anime protag and her little sister “IT’S NOT A PHASE, MOMS”

Bravo!!!!! We’ve officially finished all the kids who’s parents are both canon characters!

(Please note that their actual ages are not finalized. This is just to give you a general feel/vibe for their ages and age differences)

Some design notes I guess under the cut

Kazumi: I tried to model her (and her quirk) after your typical magic girl anime protag.  (Hm two kids with large connections to a magical girl anime/magical girl anime in general. Coincidence? I think not) Her hair is just like that. Yuyu canonically dyes her hair, and since Mr. Koshi hasn’t revealed her natural hair color, I’ve decided it is blonde. So that combined with weird BNHA genetics, we got this It was such a struggle to not dress her in a school uniform. I would love to see her in one tho... Jewel tones are her thing. Lovely rich colors are her favorite colors. Also skirts. She’s very feminine, but is known to kick some serious ass. God there’s not much to say abt her. If I weren’t so attached to Mieko and her pals, I think it’d be real funny to make the story abt Kazumi in her first year at U.A and her classmates (and upper classmen UwO) in the model of a Slice Of Life/Comedy/School Girl anime (where all the cool Shonen action stuff happening in the background)

Makairo: “Hi my name is Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way and I have long ebony black hair” Her natural hair color is nice baby blue but she dyes it black because “Baby Blue is for Preps. Black hair is Cool.” and her moms were like “lmao alrighty then” Fuck the more I look at her the more she reminds me of Eijirou and his mom. Its the black hair, red-ish eyes, and tan skin ain’t it. @ Mr. Koshi thanks for not telling me anything abt Yuyu (like her hair or quirk) so now I have no ideas for Makairo’s quirk. This poor girl is trying so hard to be cool and “”””””””not like other girls”””””””” that it’s physically painful. It’s the insecurity Idk why I decided to give her an asymmetrical design. That’s pretty cring of me smh smh. She wants more than just those ear piercings but she’s afraid of needles so you know. RIP. She’s super fuckinf short when compared to the other kids her age (One day I’ll drop the full height chart but today is not that day)

cool dream last night i was an op transfer student and everyone loved me, like

i had just transferred and there was a pool or whatever outside in the yard and everyone was out there. the guys were like “omg new girl” and i was like “uwo i’m so sweet and nice but also really good at fighting.” and i met these people who were trying to escape the school and its security systems, and they’d planned to do it after this ceremony. but when the ceremony started, the doors were all closed and the government robots came in.

i’ve had this dream before, and last time i was on the INSIDE and watched my classmates get brainwashed into not wanting to leave. their memories were pulled out and they were assigned jobs and basically just Graduated. but this time, i was on the OUTSIDE because some girl pulled me back, and i could hear everything that was going on in there. when the doors opened and everyone flooded out, i grouped with the brainwashed kids as the rebel kids were attacked and jailed.

the robots analyzed me and went “wait, where’s your job data?” and i was like uhh idk, so they checked the security camera footage and saw how powerful i was and gave me the job of Monster Hunter. (they’re supposed to also wipe my memory of rebellion but since i’m the one who’s dreaming, those rules don’t apply to me and i still remembered everything) the brainwashed kids and this guy who liked me were like “<:0 does she remember us?” and i was like “uhhh... no?” and they were all sad and i went off to fight monsters like i was told

[peachineko]

review: hajimari no kyojin (osaka 6/1)

so. hello. i usually write up my butai thoughts as, um, 100+ tweet threads in the immediate wake of whatever i just saw, but this time around i thought i'd work them out into a proper report, of a sort. if you, too, have seen this show already and want to talk about it... please. any time. always.

about reviewing: this is my very favorite 2.5D franchise, ever. but this is also a review, not a cheerleading exercise, so not every single thing i have to say is unrelentingly positive. having said that, i respect kinoshita, wada, suga-zachou, and the staff at large more than just about any creative team in this corner of japanese theater fandom so like. i'm not here to drag, lol.

about spoilers: i talk about the plot elements covered but try to avoid spoiling any of the fun production surprises. :) happy to do a more spoilery play-by-play later if folks are curious.

about length: i just checked and it's 2400 words im so sorry.

without further ado...

first of all, i admit that based on the preview clips i doubted, and i was swiftly taken to task for doubting. IM SORRY WORRY-SAN i trust u implicitly and i should have known better. after the major changes in shinka no natsu, i was concerned that bringing back the revolving stage and the original opening theme would feel stale/regressive. it did not. while they did bring back the revolving element they also extended the stage backward and added a second level behind a full stage height projection screen – the second level was used to do some neat staging for flashbacks/parallels and the screen was used to, how shall we say this, up their projection game in a major way, which i frankly did not think was possible. i will not spoil the details but it was pretty great, on a purely technical level.

i also realized that a lot of the repetition – opening with the bike scene, bringing back the original opening credits music, the staging, etc – is the "look back" over the last couple years that i'd expected to come this fall. they are very obviously already preparing for the end – you could think of this as part one of their last show, with the fall as part two. the show opens with a restaging of sixth grader hinata seeing the little giant on tv for the first time – then the current karasuno team take the place of the tv and hinata joins them for a team jog. "karasuno, fight!" "oh!" "fight!" "oh!" only then each character calls out their signature line from the show so far. "uchi no renchuu wa chanto tsuyoi" / "mou tobenai karasu nante yobasenai" / "murabito b mo tatakaemasu!"

and haha. let me tell you. BOY, DID I FEEL THINGS. a lot of things. i think yachi got me the worst but they were all real bad. (i have so many feelings about yachi's story and what a beautiful job saitou ami did with her character on stage. god. ;_;)

the theme of this play was the role of captain – what makes a good captain, what a captain does for the team, and how to step into those shoes when the captain is gone. the johzenji match is fun, but here, in a sense, it exists more or less to set up the wakutani match – (re)establishing daichi's importance so that his absence feels like the gut punch it is. and fully settling the weight of that responsibility on ennoshita's shoulders, as both daichi's substitute on the court and the captain-in-waiting.

with that in mind, the rival schools: imo it wasn't strictly necessary to cast full teams for each school – each match got its own dedicated act, and unlike, for example, nekoma/datekou in karasuno fukkatsu (which had a similar story structure), there aren't really any individual characters on these rival schools who have a role as such other than terushima and takeru. (you know, the captains. see above. XD) so in theory one could get this done with, like, one actor for each captain and then an ensemble cast playing the rest of the team across both matches. HOWEVER, having all those bodies allows them to do super cool stuff visually, and why force yourself to create the illusion of a full team if you don't have to? i.e., /i/ sure am not complaining, isn't it nice to have $$$ to achieve the max vision of your choreographer. XD

i also have no doubt that the kids playing these other characters are doing whatever they can to create a character within the ensemble, and i suspect there's plenty for repeat viewers to pick up on, esp during say the johzenji match (see below). however for the first time viewer following the main flow of the story it's more or less a very large ensemble cast.

the johzenji chaos was well expressed, haha, there was so damn much going on all the time that i hardly knew where to look. (i've also seen opinions on j-twitter that that diluted the impact and i can see that too – it worked for me as a "funny" match that didn't cross the line into comic relief, but ymmv.) i thought the final scene with misaki would pack more of a punch, but i fully expect them to cry at daisenshuuraku so that might fill in the last 10% that's missing rn.

wakutani are another Good Dance Team. one did get a sense, stylistically, of fukurodani- and nekoma-lite with johzenji and wakunan, respectively – i assume that was intentional. mirroring the cats vs owls match, as it were. yanagihara rin's takeru was like… scary?? i had to rewatch those episodes this weekend to see if i'd just forgotten something, but no, stage takeru is not so much reliable middle brother as scowly quiet tough guy. he looked like a kyoutani tbh, and looking at the kid actually cast for kyoutani, one wonders if someone in casting mixed up some paperwork or something. having said that, yanagihara was great at being the character he was, i enjoyed what he did on stage. i'm just not sure that character was takeru. XD (edit: ok having just rewatched, i have to revise this somewhat, i think a big part of my impression was due to being too far back to properly see his expressions the first time around -- up close he was much smilier, and bc i was thinking about it i noticed some nice details like him going over for a family hug afterward.) otoh big post-match scene – all of wakutani, actually – was really good. v effective, i heard sniffles around me.

during this match, johzenji reappeared dressed as takeru's family: FUCKING HILARIOUS omg, everyone involved has clearly learned how to do this right wrt blocking, the very fine line between comic relief and intrusion, etc, after the, er, shaky shousha to haisha experiment of kuroken doubling as oikawa's fangirls. seichou shita na, errone.

also, some great wire work for hinata and takeru – you could tell kenta is really comfortable up there these days. the first time the wires came into play one of the women behind me went "UWO!" which, when a japanese theatergoer makes a noise out loud, that's a true sign something's impressive. XD

nekoma vs fukurodani: Yeah, That Happened. it is a testament to how well done karasuno vs wakunan was that i didn't just spend the entire time screeching BRING BACK CATS VS OWLS because fjkdajfkdlsfjd KYAA. another good staging moment – they used mirrors to create the effect of two full teams playing at a crowded gymnasium, it was brill. i won't spoil some of the fun details but vvjakdlfjdf. and tbh i think the best performance of the four was probably shouri's?? not that this is news but istg idk how someone so soft offstage does THAT on stage. is it this "acting" thing you speak of.

new bokuaka: i mean it was clear some of this material was meant for yoshimoto kouki and i did kinda miss him – i appreciate higashi-san's pinch hitting and he did a solid job. but. ah well. HAVING SAID THAT. fucking "michi wo tsukurimasu yo" i mean we should all be grateful it wasn't kouki and yuuki or it would have just been a fucking fanfic on stage. it was still bad and i don't even go here. XD

and last but not least, arita ushiwaka kenji: not exactly the world's most natural line delivery but that's fine because, i mean, he's ushiwaka. and his physical presence was perfect. which was about all he was called on to do in this particular show, ahaha.

now, for karasuno. and specifically, for my son, kawahara kazuma. remember what i said approximately a thousand words ago, about captains and captains in waiting and stepping up to the plate? (or onto the court, as it were.) ennoshita's story was the heart of the wakutani match and kazuma carried the second act. he was. so. good. he had good material to work with, of course, but he made it even better. i was saying to a friend that in retrospect i think this is one of the very very few parts of the series that actually played better and more emotionally affecting on stage than in the source material (as opposed to differently good/differently affecting). in the manga/anime, you can only see what the paneling or the frame shows you, and those initial paneling/framing choices are focused on the drama of CAPTAIN DOWN. but on the stage, daichi goes down… and off to the side you see ennoshita freeze. and from that moment on, for kazuma, it's go time. he doesn't let up until the end of post-match scene in (here) the locker room – which, jesus, that scene. it packs ten times the punch it does in the anime. because of kazuma.

sorry if i sound like a crazy person here ahaha. but like. like, imagine you have been acting since childhood, you've studied dance with famous choreographers and innovators, you had a main role in The Franchise That Changed 2.5D as a teenager, you've done a solo album, you have a serious history in performing arts... and you get cast in what was initially the smallest role of the entire karasuno team. and you take it! and pull your weight! kazuma was a team player for three years and he deserved this chance to let his actual skills shine so much. ;_; because i don't necessarily think he would have been better in any of the other roles than his actual teammates – but i do think he is a much better actor than several of his actual teammates. and he finally got the opportunity to show that.

anyway, when it came time for curtain calls, the applause swelled noticeably for kazuma – a louder ovation than anyone except kagechan and kenta. and one of those people clapping her hands off, say in row 20, just a random row choice, was definitely tearing up at the same time.

IN OTHER KARASANEWS. kt-san. LIVE IN PERSON KT-SAN BACK IN THE ROLE HE WAS MEANT FOR cries into my hands i love him daichi-saaaaaaaaaan. very occasionally his delivery reminded me he's a model not an actor, if you know what i mean, but like, for the vast part it didn't matter because he is naturally such a perfect fit. have i mentioned i love him.

new suga: mmmmm. he looked and moved fine but his line delivery did not convince me. tbf it's not like suga has a huge role to play in these matches so 1) it's not a huge deal 2) he didn't get much chance to get into the character. either he'll get better or he won't, and if he doesn't it's not going to sink the next play or anything. he seems like a nice enough kid, i wish him well!

kageyama tatsuya: still can't yell and enunciate at the same time. loved that they brought back the archer analogy from shinka no natsu though!! it was one of my favorite things about his kageyama, and it's nice that it's something he "owns" instead of imitating/inheriting from tatsunari.

tsukishima & yamaguchi: miura kairi continues to get even better, i'm so pleased. <3 also, i love love love that they still use the musical motif from shousha to haisha for yamaguchi's jump float serve. it was the same in shinka no natsu, it's the same here. THE TSUKKIYAMA WAS REAL CUTE, great detail work before and after the serve as well as after tsukki's block(s). as for tsukishima, much as they brought back kageyama's archer imagery, they brought back tsukki's fancy katana kill block. (they didn't waste kondou shouri, either, i'll leave it at that.)

last but not least, MY ACTUAL SON AND FEELINGS TWIN, SUGA KENTA: ok like. to set the scene here. i have mad respect for this kid and also love him to death as a human. i think he puts more thought into this production than anyone else in the cast – he is practically worry-san's AD. and he clearly has a lot of real deep thoughts and feelings about the source material. so deep in fact that it took a while for me to come around to his hinata because while, for example, tatsunari's kageyama could have walked straight off my television screen, kenta went down to the manga and built hinata up from there. he didn't have a choice – he's nothing like murase ayumu's voice. all too often we, and i include myself here, think of the two dimensions in 2.5D as anime, rather than manga... but just as there's a big gap between the two dimensions of animation and the three dimensions of live theater, there's as big a gap again between static black-and-white drawing, and movement and color and sound. and when i looked at kenta's hinata as something created solely from furudate's art style, it all slotted into place for me. (naturally, ymmv.)

it also took kenta longer than some of the others, i think, to portray all of what he wanted to. shoen hinata was pretty yelly, and pretty single-register yelly. hinata is a yelly character, of course, but the balance between that hinata and Serious Match Hinata was out of whack at first. this got better and better with every show. and then—

his encounter with ushiwaka here. was IT. it was what i was looking for all this time. his delivery of hinata's big line there was like – i think maybe i clapped my hands over my mouth, unclear, bc it was like the final missing piece and i was so happy. kentaaaaa. ;____;

part of me wonders if this is what kenta's always had in his head but maybe couldn't get his face/voice to express the way he wanted it? OR, IT'S KENTA, SO MAYBE IT WAS ON PURPOSE and his previous Serious Hinata was meant to be like, just a feral hunger child whereas this is the kid who experienced the heartbreak of losing to seijou. i would love to ask him tbh. XD

anyway, my son, after five plays continues to grow in his portrayal of this character. kenta is the heart of gekidan haikyuu in so many ways, and i will be at their graduation show if it kills me.

(breathes out) i think that's. everything. a best setter award to anyone who read this far, and feel free to ask if there's anything specific you want to know about? i will be seeing it again this weekend for daisenshuuraku and will be sure to report back on who cried, etc. all hail volleyball stage the end. 🏐

30 + Crow! uwo

30. Submersion in cool water. 

(In relations to this fic)

It was inevitable. He had been at Martha’s house… what? A week? Yuusei did most of the talking for Crow, but he did say a few words. Unfortunately, ‘no’ was his favourite. More unfortunately, ‘no’ didn’t usually work.

Despite his resistance, Martha still got Crow into the bath. It was absolutely freezing water, Crow’s teeth chattering the second he breached the surface. “Well I’m sorry, but it would have still been warm if you got in when I told you that you desperately needed a bath.” Crow did his best to give a mean look, but quickly gave it up seeing Martha give a stern look back.

Crow was about to say something, stopping to see Yuusei and Jack open the door and peek in. “Hey Crow! Hi Martha!” Yuusei said, Jack looking silently. Yuusei walked in, shedding his clothes, joining Crow in the bath. The three turned to Jack, still in the doorway. “Jack?”

“No.” Jack always hated sharing things, but sharing baths was a whole different weird. Especially since Jack took pride in being the oldest kid. He was nine, he was practically an adult. It was too… childish to do that.

Just as Yuusei was going to call Jack a name, Crow spoke up. “Come on, Jack,” Crow complained, a sad look upon his face.

This was an argument Jack couldn’t win. He fiddled with his necklace, mumbling a “fine.” He joined the two, moreso annoyed than Crow about the low temperature. “As long as it stops the baby from crying.”

Crow swiftly turned to face Jack. “I’m not a baby!”

The two bickered a bit, Yuusei frequently telling them to stop. Martha stood up, hanging towels up. “Make sure he washes himself, or help him,” she instructed, walking off.

The boys agreed, Yuusei sticking his hand into Crow’s rat’s nest, he and Jack slightly panicking when it wouldn’t come out. “Well…” Yuusei drawled, “this is a disaster.”

Crow popped a bubble. “Thanks.”
