Imperial-Topaz ranks SWTOR Romances

To mark my return, I decided to do a SWTOR ranking, this time with the romances. I'm gonna stick with just vanilla ones for now, and do expansions at a later time. Also, I'm not doing any of the 'one-shot' romances, or I'll be here till the next century. Again, this is just my opinion, let me know what you think on these romances in the comments or reblogs. Anyway, this is gonna be a chonkey one, so let's get into it.

19. Kaylio Djannis

What a surprise. Anyway, she's down here for one reason in particular. She's literally the only romance option that fucking cucks you.

Yup. Honestly, Kaliyo is such an unlikable piece of shit. She trash talks you even if you're flirting with her and probably doesn't see you as anything more than a one night stand. I don't wanna look at this bitch no more. Next! 18. Doc

Yeah, you know how I feel about Doc already. The walking sexual harassment lawsuit who can't take 'no' for an answer. If you're a female knight who doesn't want to romance him (or at least wants to take things easy and not rush), you're in for an uncomfortable time. But what if you're into his flirts and return them? Is the relationship a bit healthier? I suppose, but his attitude makes it hard for me to take his commitment seriously. I just have this feeling that he'll run off to bang a hotter chick if given the opportunity. I mean, he already fled a wedding once.

So yeah, fuck Doc and his ugly ass crowbar mustache. 17. Nadia Grell

Before you crucify me, I like Nadia, okay? She's a great character. Her romance on the other hand is...eugh. There is a lot of unfortunate implications. You guys already know I'm not a big fan of Padawan and Apprentice relationships, it's just creepy for me. Also, you start romance literally after her father dies. I'm serious, it almost plays into the Sex for Solace trope. Also, the Consular is coded to be an older person, while Nadia is really young. I mean, ngl, I don't mind age difference as long as both parties are the age of majority (which, to give credit, they are) but still. Honestly, I just like Nadia better as a surrogate daughter/little sister to the Consular.

16. Corso Riggs

Yeah, Corso is...not the best in my opinion. I'll give him credit, he's got good looks and plenty of gentlemanly charm if you're into that sorta thing. But then again, his romance setup pretty much forces you to take advantage of him while he's drunk. Already that bumps him down a few spots for me. Personality wise, I find his whole 'don't hurt woman at all' shtick to get really old, especially when he does it towards women who are actively trying to kill him and the Smuggler. Buddy, you can defend yourself and still be a Gentleman at the same time. His jealousy also kinda gets on my nerves. Not my cup of tea, but I won't judge anyone who picks him.

15. Jaesa Willsaam (Dark side)

Some may not like that I put her this high, but the reason Dark!Jaesa is above the last four for me is simple: the entertainment value. Honestly, her romance is also roughly how I feel about her character: not actually 'good' per say, but so hilariously over-the-top and edgy, that I can't help but laugh. A perfect fit for a chaotic dark side Sith Warrior. However, as a genuine love interest? Not the best. There's better options you can pick for that. Also, I'm not discussing in this list Light!Jaesa, since I believe that's an expansion-only romance.

14. Raina Temple

Alright, done with the bad, now we can move onto the good, starting with Raina. She's alright in my opinion. I don't have much to say, honestly. I like her whole everywoman theme, she's cute, she's got some complexity to her, and she's not Kaliyo. Not an absolute fav, but she's good in my book.

13. Andronikos Revel

Again, not much to say. Revel's got a good arc to him: starts off casual and laid-back, but once you get to know eachother, he opens up and it becomes more serious. I also like how he's flirtatious and not an absolute creep about it...unlike a certain someone... So yeah, simple and sweet. 12. Risha Drayen

Don't have much to say for Risha, either. I like her, but I'm not crazy for her. I will admit, I do have a soft spot for the whole princess x rogue type of romance, and she is a pretty likable and personable character. I just prefer the other romance option for smugglers, but we'll get to that in a bit. 11. Felix Iresso

Someone give this man a hug, a blanket, and some snacks. He did not deserve any of the shit he went through. Hurt/comfort aside, I like Felix. He's calm, mature, friendly, and straight-forward in a good way. I know I sound like a broken record, but honestly, I am having trouble of what to say. Moving on! 10. Ashara Zavros

The one thing holding Ashara back for me is the master/apprentice dynamic. That's really the only problem I have with her romance. I just find it creepy. That aside, Ashara's pretty good. I love her character arc of her realizing the conflict between Jedi and Sith isn't as Black and White as she initially thought it was, and how it ties into her romance. I especially like romancing her with a Light Sided Inquisitor. It's just so sweet.

P.S. They did her dirty in KOTFE 9. Vector Hyllus

I know how beloved Vector is and some people are really not gonna like me not putting him the top 5. That's only because I only did his romance once. However, I did enjoy that playthrough. Vector is a very wholesome and quirky character with some interesting romantic themes. I'll have to play through him again someday. 8. Akaavi Spar

Man, I love warrior women. Especially ones who soften up over time, just like Akaavi here. I honestly have a soft spot for characters who completely wall themselves off from everyone else, but slowly begin to let other people into their boundaries as they open up. I know some people might not like me putting her over Risha, but I can't help it. Akaavi is just great.

7. Torian Cadera

Once more, not a whole lot to say, but I do enjoy Torian. His loyalty and courage are always endearing. One of my favorite moments in this game is reciting Mandalorian wedding vows with him. IDK why, but it's just so adorable for me. He, the Hunter, and Mako are an OT3 of mine. 6. Elara Dorne

Elara's romance is pretty adorable. She slowly begins to fall for you, spends time trying to adjust to a more casual relationship, and even goes out of her way to fill out heaps of paperwork and bypass regulations just so she can be with you. I love it. The one downside for me is the fact that you're her CO and she's technically sleeping with the boss. I don't hate it as much as the master/apprentice thing, but it does come a bit close. Other than that, she's great.

5. Malavai Quinn

Kicking off my top 5 is Quinn. The reason he's not number 1 is because I have a few issues with his romance. For one, you can turn the relationship very possessive and abusive as a dark side character. It's pretty scummy that the game lets you do that, and there is a sadly not insignificant amount of people who like to take that route. I won't call names, but still, it can get a bit iffy. On the other hand, if you're passive with him and respect his boundaries, his romance is considerably sweeter. It's really rewarding to see him show his undying loyalty and affection for you if you're not aggressively demanding it from him, and I love how you can rebuild your relationship after the Quincident. Really wish more people would go down that route. 4. Mako

Honestly, Mako has one of my favorite companion dynamics in the whole game, romance or not. She's charismatic and quirky gal to contrast to the generally gruff and straightforward bounty hunter, but still badass enough to keep up with them. And the romance, again, is pretty wholesome...and I'll leave it at that. Just plain cute and heartwarming. 3. Vette

Vette's dynamic with the Warrior is pretty much about the same as Mako's with the hunter. Which is why I really like her. I'm a big sucker for noble x commoner type relationships. Also in comparison to Malavai's, I like to take things slow with her, too. Instead of pushing every flirt button, it's wholesome to see her slowly come to a decision on her own and profess her love to the Warrior. NGL, though, I absolutely love how she literally jumps with joy upon being proposed to. Oh, and BioWare, how dare you make me choose between Torian and her! 2. Aric Jorgan

It's grumpy cat time. Another trope I have a soft spot for is the Defrosting Ice Queen (or King in this scenario). I love it when characters don't initially hit it off at first, but eventually warms up to eachother. Sure, when rushed, it comes off as contrived and unbelievable, but when done right, it's just amazing.

And Jorgan is just that, his friendship/romance evolution with the Trooper is a bit slow, but also believable. By the end of the story, he ends up straight up dedicated towards you. I also love how flustered he can get in romantic situations. Now if only BioWare made him bisexual... 1. Kira Carsen

@swtorpadawan and @magicallulu7 are gonna like this. Anyway, Kira might just be my favorite vanilla SWTOR companion. Playful, snarky, but still goodhearted and brave. And throughout the years, she'd still remained a favorite, both character and romance wise. I know, master/apprentice stuff, but I never see the Knight as her master. I see them more as Jedi partners (and perhaps more) if anything. I really like how you do help her overcome her past trauma and develop into a more responsible figure. Honestly, making her Bisexual in Onslaught was a chad move...if only BioWare did that for other companions. Conclusion

Holy fuck, that was a lot! Either way, I hope you guys enjoyed this ranking. If you disagree, please don't flame me for my opinions, or else I will cry. instead, tell me how you'd change the rankings and what your favorites are.

Exhaustion hung heavy on her sharp features as she stumbled through the door, frustration rolling off of her in waves as she struggled through her evening routine: long red hair fell limply about her face, having long since escaped the tight, braided up-do she'd put it in at the start of the day; though she was something of a British rose, her skin was unusually pale save for the dark circles that surrounded her eyes; her painted lips were perpetually sunken downwards in a frown and her eyes themselves were reddened from crying. Today, it seems, had been especially hard on her, what what kind of husband would he be if he didn't do everything he could to elevate her worries.

“Dear girl,” he called out, slowly approaching her as she uncaringly flung her work clothes about every which way, “you don’t seem like yourself. Is there anything I can do?”

“Darling,” she started, voice breaking and thick with unshed tears even as she faced away from him, “I don’t know if there’s anything you can do. I don’t even know what’s wrong with me right now… I just -” she threw her arms up in the air, exasperated and turned to face him, her cheeks splotchy and red with upset as she looked at him.

“Oh my love, come here.”

And that was all it took for Grelle to practically fling herself into his arms, crying and sobbing into his neck and clinging to his night shirt with such ferocity that he was sure that she thought he’d disappear the moment she let go.

————

For several moments they just swayed to-and-fro in each other’s arms, clinging to one another as he whispered sweet nothings and words of affirmation into her ear - only pausing when her sobbing faded into sniffles into sighing. Then, and only then, did he pull back and move to gently wipe the streaks of tears away from her eyes, smiling softly at her as he spoke, his tone low and words dripping with unending adoration for her.

“Want to talk about it, my love?” When she shook her head, he nodded and smiled once again, “that’s alright. We don’t need to talk about it - but would you like me to make you feel better?”

“Mhm,”

“Mhm?” He laughed under his breath and shook his head as he repeated her words. “Is that an ‘I definitely want to do this’ or an ‘I guess we can do this if you want to’? Because I’m only going to do this if you want me to, baby.”

“Darling,” she managed after a few beats, giggling between her words despite her teary eyes, “you already know the answer. I’d never turn down an opportunity to be pampered by you,”

“So it’s a definite yes?”

“It’s a definite yes,” she affirmed in an amused voice, grinning broadly and pressing a chaste kiss onto the tip of his nose - giggling when he scrunched up his brow in faux annoyance at the gesture. “so should I give you a show?”

“Oh no, dear,” he chuckled in response, reaching between them to toy with the buttons of her blouse, “leave all the work to me. Tonight’s all about you, so all I need you to do is just sit there and look pretty; you got that?”

“Darling, looking pretty is the one thing I excel at!”

That much he could vouch for, but instead he shifted his focus to undressing his stunning wife - revelling in every inch of soft, pale skin that was revealed to him as he made his way down her body. First removing her blouse and corset, then moving on to her trousers and underwear and stepping back a few paces to admire his handiwork.

————

Grelle was a woman that thrived when in the limelight - who enjoyed being the centre of attention, especially when that attention was that of her beloved husband as he shamelessly ogled her nude body. And this was no more clear than it was in that moment, with her kicking her clothes to one side and stepping over the pile of fabric, spinning and posing like a model as she made her way over to the bed and laid back - leaning on her forearms to look over at him through long lashes and spreading her long legs widely to wordlessly invite him between them.

Though for those few moments, he could do nothing but stare and swallow thickly, openly admiring the beauty before him and thanking whatever powers that be that he was lucky enough to have her in his bed - his eyes tracing a path along his body that his hands and mouth would be quick to follow after he clumsily stumbled his way over to the bed.

He started with those long, strong legs, trailing his lips from her inner ankles up along her strong calves to her thick thighs and starting again. One of his hands slid along the outside of her thigh as he worshipped her, lightly squeezing the meat of them every so often and coaxing a muffled squeak from her when he did so. Yet he took great efforts to ensure no area of her beautifully pale skin was neglected, trailing his lips and tongue from ankle to apex several times over - whispering sweet nothings into her flesh as he went: “you’re so beautiful”, “you’re fucking perfect”, “I love you so much, darling” - on and on and on. And he gave that same attention to her other leg after a few minutes of this - only grinning cheekily up at her when she huffed and insisted that he hurry up, telling her that “one can’t just rush this kind of thing, my love”.

Then he turned his attentions to her deliciously soft stomach, positioning himself between her legs and resting his chin on her pelvis to get a better view - and lifting her legs over his shoulders to make sure she was as comfortable as possible. Two warm hands caressed her sides, fingertips tracing the visible ridges of her ribs and skimming over the slight dips of her hips before repeating this pattern over and over again. His lips, meanwhile, mapped out the expanse of her abdomen: trailing across from the dip of their pelvis to the stretch marks of her lower stomach to the soft pudge just above it (blowing a raspberry against the adored skin and grinning up at her when she laughed before moving on), up to the bottom of her rib cage. Every mole, freckle and scar was noted and complimented, words of adoration and compliments about her figure and completion tattooed against soft pale skin with the intensity of each kiss: “you’re beautiful”, “I love how soft you are”, “the most amazing girl in this world and the next”.

And only then was he happy to turn his attention upwards once again, eyes catching the soft rise and fall of her chest as she looked down at him with a mixture of amusement, adoration and lust. Until he finally leaned down and began peppering chaste kisses around each desirable mound of flesh - circling each base before moving up and up, leaving neither breast neglected until he finally reached her peaks. One hand moved away from her sides to encircle her right nipple as he took the other into his mouth: rolling, pinching and gently pulling with his hand whilst his mouth sucked, licked and adored the other - switching these after several moments of worship.

By now their position was more than compromising and he could feel her temptingly bare and dripping cunt soaking the crotch of his night clothes and rubbing delectably against his throbbing cock. Yet he refused to relent yet, instead using what little restraint that remained to move upwards and trail chaste kisses along her collarbone to her throat to her jawline and finally to her lips - greedily swallowing a moan that he pulled from her before moving a hair’s breadth away to breathlessly ask her a question.

“Ready?”

Grelle nodded eagerly in response and placed a passionate kiss against his lips before he reluctantly pushed away from her to rid himself of his loose fitting clothes - which had long since begun to feel far too restrictive for his taste. Then, once content with his bareness, he positioned himself between her legs and readied himself for what was to come.

————

The sensitive head of his cock pressed against her soaked pussy, sliding along her slit from her clit to her hole a few times to lubricate himself before positioning himself at her entrance and pushing into her in a single fluid thrust. Her back arched up into him when he bottomed out, her velvety walls tightening around his length in a response that made him groan - though he still tried his best to not move within her whilst they both adjusted to the familiar feeling.

Perfectly manicured, red painted nails found purchase on his shoulders, pulling his body taut against her as she crashed her lips against his - covering his face with smudges of her lipstick as she desperately ground her hips against his. And, taking this as a sign of her need for him, he started to move shortly thereafter - slowly pulling out before slamming back into her and quickly settling into a fast and rough pace.

The room was filled with a cacophony of sound as they lost themselves to each other: swallowed moans, muffled groans, sharp grunts, sighs, skin slapping against skin, the gushing of her wet cunt around him and the crack of their headboard slamming against their bedroom wall. Every thrust pulled another shamelessly loud and lewd moan from her lips - all of which he greedily and eagerly swallowed as he moaned and groaned into her mouth in return.

Minute after minute, from root to tip she swallowed him over and over again - wrapping her legs around his hips to force him closer to her body, scratching desperately at his back as she approached her own climax. Though for his own part he wasn’t far behind, his pace faltering and stuttering as the inviting warmth of her pussy pushed him ever closer to the edge of his climax. Then, after a short time of desperately seeking out her pleasure, he couldn’t stop himself from slipping over the precipice and reaching his orgasm - trying to warn her and pull out only to be pulled closer and urged to give her everything he had to offer.

And give he did; spilling his cum plentifully into her fluttering hole with several jerky thrusts - giving so much that it dripped out of her and onto the bedsheets beneath them as she continued to grind and buck into him. Until she herself came too, breaking the kiss to throw her head back and scream his name as she squirted her climax around his overly sensitive and softening cock: moaning, whimpering, bucking, jerking, pulling him against her with her legs around his hips and digging her nails so harshly into his shoulders that it was starting to draw blood.

Too much. Too much. Too much.

Yet he still couldn’t get enough of her as they gradually came down from their highs and returned to earth with crooked, tired smiles and hooded eyes with pupils blown wide with lust, pleasure and adoration in its purest forms. Even as they shared a messy, gasping kiss and reluctantly started to part with muscles aching and limbs trembling as they fell back onto the bed.

And even as Grelle curled into his side and playfully nibbled at his earlobe, whispering a promise of “returning the favour” in the morning.

Redcliff headcanons bcs no one can stop me

Grell obviously fell first but kept it a secret because she just got out of a relationship (read: William) and isn't looking for a new one yet

However that all changed when Madame suddenly had the biggest sapphic revelation of all time (personally, I love seeing her as a lesbian with comphet but feel free to smoosh it around if you see her as bi / pan. I just know that this girl loves women)

Madame: what does it mean if I like someone whose gender expression is similar to yours?

Grell: you'd be gay, Angie

Madame, standing up: w a i t

Madame's very confident in her romancing expertise until Grell comes to the equation. At this point, they're very used to being affectionate with each other #girlythingz SO A GIRL IS PANICKING

Secretly, Madame thinks Grell's very cool in how unfazed she is with gorey stuff

Grell isn't cool actually, it's just the shoujo filter talking

The butler persona was definitely all on Madame, she's down bad since the beginning actually

They're not the healthiest couple on the block unfortunately. Like yes, they'd kill for each other but a big argument could make them kill each other instead

They don't say sorry either, just do a grand gesture and hope for the best

Madame is the one who likes to push Grell's buttons so when Grell's in a bad mood, she'd say something nasty in return and that's usually how they fight

Madame: your taste in men is horrible but I guess that's what happens when you're dead for so long

Grell: oh, like your sister?

They need to seek a couple therapist, I am so serious

As much as they love red, modern day wise, I think they'd have a different fashion style but still compliments each other. Madame is very business formal & the occasional sexy night outfits. Grell is just statement pieces

I like to think that if they met in a different time, they could be really sweet and shit but unfortunately that's not how it goes so we could only dream

They love gossiping so much

Grell laughs genuinely with Madame the most :(

They're like Drea and Eleanor from Do Revenge. A couple of besties who bring out the worst in each other but they do love each other!

Madame is the only person (other than Othello and sometimes Eric) who could make Grell a grumbling shy person

With how the relationship... started, Madame feels very comfortable confiding and ranting to Grell about everything and anything. Grell listens very tenderly because her wife has every reason to get mad at this rude man

Grell gives Madame a lot of nicknames. Some are normal (Angie and Ann), some are cringe in my opinion but unfortunately she's cringe like that

Madame: it's impossible to give you a nickname from your name

Grell: come on, you can do it. Try

Madame: ....Rellie-

Grell: actually, sweetheart and darling are fine

#kuroshitsuji #black butler #grell sutcliff #kuroshitsuji grell #madame red #angelina dalles #grelle sutcliff #kuroshitsuji grelle #grelle x madame red #redcliffe #redcliff #my favorite divorced couple #not surprisingly this isn't all of them

New(ish) Comics:

Batman #138: I’m reading this again as this is just such a great comic. Seriously Zdarsky, well done. So many different fight details here. I particularly noticed Bruce is demonstrating super-strength on this read for some reason – he breaks both Dick’s escrima stick and Tim’s bo staff, he rips the door off a car (??!!). There are so many neat details of ‘something is seriously wrong with Bruce’ here.

Blue Beetle #2: I like the note here that Booster is taking Ted away to heal somewhere else in time. I also enjoyed that all the JLI folk instantly nominated Tora to go comfort Jaime. And finally, I am delighted to see characters finally suspicious of Victoria Kord because! I have been so sus on her! Since her first appearance in Graduation Day! Her vibes are indeed off! (And it’s not just the clear autism – I do not get nearly these levels of ‘when do you turn out to be an evil plant’ from say Dani Garrett, who is also intensely female autistic about the scarab and her grandfather)

Birds of Prey #2: The art in this comic remains immaculate. I love the x-ray, out of panel drawings for passing between the ‘real’ world and the magical world. In terms of the plot – I’m still not 100% in here trust wise, but Thompson is winning me over, issue by issue, by reassuring me she understands the characters and is making considered decisions to justify why this lineup. I really really think they screwed themselves a bit with the way they announced the lineup – the vibes in the comic itself are far more clear on who’s a long term choice (Cass, Barda) and who are more likely ‘this storyline only’ choices (Harley, Zealot).

Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville #2: This continues to make me so happy in its level of fun and metacommentary. I love the collection of villains, because there’s one existing rogue in each line (Beefeater, Maxie Zeus, Gentleman Ghost) and the six new ones, though admittedly Linka and King of Cats are somewhat linked to existing characters/mantles. The goof levels are off the charts (I lost it at the “Guns don’t kill people. I kill people” line) Anyway come for Bea and Tora remaining extremely ‘on a break’ as they definitely don’t date…uh…siblings, stay for the shenanigans. Maybe Bea and Tora will finally get to kiss in issue #6 (the kiss will obviously be a cheek peck or an accident during a fight scene or something)

Shazam! #4: Garguax the Distressing, Emperor of the MOON! I love him. He’s so silly. Chew on the scenery a bit more, Garguax! Also Billy manages to avoid mind control by realising he’s about to have his first ever kiss with a bee supervillain and deciding he’s not cool with that. Go you, Billy. This comic remains deeply committed to serious silliness and Silver Age vibes (Mark Waid. Dan Mora. Do we need to enforce the ‘one gorilla a month’ rule from the 1970s on you?) which is exactly what I want from the Shazamily. Also Darla appeared, my beloved.

Warlord #22: this week in Skartaris Travis was fighting a werewolf! I would pretend this was a surprise revelation on the very last page, but given someone turned up and shot a silver arrow during the very first fight scene, let’s just say this revelation was signalled.

In addition to the amusement I always get when archery occurs in this title, Grell enjoyed two full pages of serpent bondage scenes. Enjoy some assorted scenes.

Oh Mike Grell. Never change.

Which of your SWTOR Companions are NOT with the Alliance?

I was inspired by this post by @swtorpadawan.

It's a good question, and it got me thinking (slowly, as always). For now, I've come up with fates of companions in Lette Legacy (Jett as the Outlander), and will work on others later.

Warning - Mentions of established character deaths below. And lots of spoilers for KotFE and everything after it.

In my headcanon the events of KotFE and onwards are different from in-game version, which impacts the fate of some companions. The most relevant differences are the fates of class characters (Bounty Hunter, Jedi Consular, Smuggler and Agent are in the Alliance; Jedi Knight, Sith Warrior, Sith Inquisitor and Trooper are not with the Alliance for different reasons) and the fact that the Alliance does not participate in the renewed war between the Republic and Sith Empire, choosing to stay neutral.

Also, the state of companions changes with time, so this is for the time around the events of 7.0 in SWTOR.

Jedi Knight crew:

Fideltin Rusk - continues his military service in the Republic.

Doc - after Ossus stays to help the Jedi in the renewed war.

Jedi Consular crew:

Zenith - continues anti-Imperial activities.

Tharan Cedrax - survives the Imperial attack on Meridian Complex and continues to work for the Republic.

Nadia Grell - after Ossus stays with the Jedi.

Trooper crew:

Elara Dorne - continues her military service in the Republic as a part of the Havoc Squad, takes Jorgan's place as second in command after he joined the Alliance.

M1-4X - stays with the Republic as part of the Havoc Squad.

Tanno Vik - does whatever he was doing in chapter 6.

Sith Warrior crew:

Malavai Quinn - stays with the Empire as one of Acina's officers.

Major Pierce - continues his military service in the Empire.

Jaesa Wilsaam - disappears after Emperor's Wrath's death, current whereabouts unknown.

Broonmark - killed while trying to assassinate a Wookiee senator on Alderaan.

Vette - killed by Vaylin on Odessen.

Sith Inquisitor crew:

Khem Val, Andronikos Revel, Talos Drellik and Xalek - all stay in the Sith Empire and work for Darth Nox.

Ashara Zavros - killed by apprentices of Darth Nox.

Bounty Hunter crew:

Skadge - just does his thing, if nobody shot him yet. (I don't even count him as companion, but since he is a companion in the game, I guess I had to add him). Jett never met him again after dropping him somewhere shortly after Belsavis.

Imperial Agent crew:

Vector Hyllus - continues his duties as Dawn Herald.

SCORPIO - merged with Iokath.

Kaliyo - dropped out of the Alliance after Vaylin is dealt with. I just don't think she would stick for much of what comes next.

So 22 out of 40 companions from class stories are not with the Alliance (obviously Kaliyo, SCORPIO and Vette were a part of the Alliance).

Honorable mention: Raina Temple - officially is not with the Alliance, but working with them to maintain communication between the Alliance and the Chiss Ascendancy.

#figuring out companions in other legacies is going to be difficult but i'll think of something #i kept it short but if anybody wants to hear details about certain companions i'll gladly share #swtor #swtor headcanons #kotfe spoilers #kotet spoilers #(idk what else to tag it with)#legacy (verse): lette

Danganropa (English) VA comparison

SPOILER WARNING FOR THOSE WHO AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH DANGANROPA: TRIGGER HAPPY HAVOC

So, the most recent anime that I watched was Danganropa: The Animation (I plan to watch DR3 in the future), but before I did so, I wanted to see the source material and compare. There were things in that the game did better than in the anime (ex: Chihiro's gender reveal, background of some characters like Kyoko), and there were things that the anime did better than in the game (ex: the overall scene of Mondo and Taka becoming foes to bros, having established shots of things that come up later in the story like the carpet stain and Chihiro creating Alter Ego). But in this post, I'll be sharing who I think did a better portrayal of the characters in the English dub of both the game and anime. I will not be mentioning Makato, because in both the anime and game, he was voiced by Bryce Papenbrook (and the only VA from the first game to reprise his role in the anime adaptation). I also left out Mukuro, because I have yet to hear what her true voice is outside of pretending to be Junko.

Note that these are my opinions, so feel free to agree/disagree if you like. I am also not implying any the actors in both the game and/or anime did terrible in their roles! This is just personal preference, and a few are considerably close to which of the two I liked best.

Monokuma: Game or Anime

In the game, I was not at all a fan of Monokuma. I found him to be annoying and, of course, I don't like characters who are completely insensitive. Sure, he had a couple cute moments, but nothing that made me love him in the source material. On the opposite side, Monokuma actually looked cute in the anime's animation style and his English voice I found to be hysterical. One of my favorite parts of the anime is the crazy dialogue, and Monokuma provides a mass amount of the wacky lines. His voice itself, which was provided by Greg Ayres, was obnoxious, but it's part of his character. I didn't find it to be so very annoying that I was never excited to hear him (which I CAN say that the game Monokuma had the opposite effect). I know when Monokuma appears, he's gonna spew more nonsense than he did in the game.

Asahina: Game or Anime

This is one that came down to just splitting hairs. While I adored Cassandra's performance as Hina, I liked Felecia Angelle's take, an actress that I'm not too familiar with outside of her role as Hagakure in MHA, was just a bit better.

Byakuya: Game or Anime

Celeste: Game or Anime

It's bad that I wanna pronounce his name the same way Kubz Scouts did (pronouncing it as "bee-yah-KUH-ya"), but is it worse that in general, I liked Byakuya more in the anime than in the game? I feel like a big factor was the fact that Jessie James Grelle voiced him in the anime. They're one of my favorite anime dub actors and they just gave Byakuya this more attractive charm that make him less like a d**chebag (they have that same bit of charm in Zen and Tokoyami). I swear, I wasn't in a biased mindset, but that's just how it happened.

Celeste in the game always gave out this bitch vibe, and you either love it or hate it. Well, I love to hate it, especially with her vocal performance by Marieve Herington. The actress was able to perfectly capture that vibe of Celeste from start to finish, fake accent to real voice (plus the sheer anger during the third class trial). Although her voice in the anime itself wasn't bad, it just didn't have that same spark.

Chihiro: Game or Anime

As previously stated, Chihiro is not really a girl, and while the game better handled that revelation, I very much preferred his voice in anime. Although female actresses can be cast for male roles, it can sometimes mislead the audience if the boy is a crossdresser. There is that hint of a boy in Chihiro's voice in the anime, more so than in the game, provided by Kara Edwards. It just sounded better and genuinely captured the "girly boy" aspect of the character.

Hifumi: Game or Anime

I had a lot of general mixed feelings when it came to Hifumi, but when it came down to his voice, he sounded better in the game. I liked how Lucien Dodge, a voice actor I'm not familiar with, got to flex his voice acting chops with the mousy and loud voice for Hifumi while using a bold adventurous voice a few times. Sure, it's overall annoying, but so was his anime voice. But between the two, I found it way easier to understand what Hifumi was saying in the game. Hearing him speak in the anime... just made it difficult for me to understand some of the things he was saying.

Junko: Game or Anime

This was overall hard because in the game, Junko was voiced by two different actresses. Therefore, I wasn't sure which of the two I'd appreciate more because of the various personality types she had. However, in the anime, one actress was able to do all the personalities, and her name is Jamie Marchi. She nailed them all as seen in the game (a few like the cutesy personality were done better here), and it really had her flex her voice acting chops. In the end of the day, her take on Junko ended up being my favorite role she's done.

Taka: Game or Anime

While his voice was fun to listen to in the game, I have to give this one to Austin Tindle's take on the character as seen in the anime. He made Taka sound much more punctual, and I love the range he has from being a total chaos child or lawful good boy.

Kyoko: Game or Anime

As much as I love Caitlin Glass, her portrayal of Kyoko in the anime didn't quite fit the character well. I just felt like Erica Harlacher did it better, capturing Kyoko's cold, quiet and mysterious personality with the just right amount of warmth. Caitlin's was not at all bad, but I just thought it was a little "too warm". Although, I did find the last few anime scenes of Caitlin's Kyoko to fit the tone of the hopeful ending.

Leon: Game or Anime

Although I liked the cool guy type approach when Grant George voiced him in the game, Justin Cook took that and dialed it up to eleven, most notably in the first class trial. One of my favorite voice acting scenes in the series is the back-and-forth argument between Leon and Makoto after the former was exposed as the culprit (and after he was voted guilty). The sheer anger, panic, denial, and rage in his voice and how it grew increasingly tense as the discussion went on. But what really sent it out of the park (no pun intended) was Leon's "NO!!!" before his execution. I felt Justin's delivery of Leon's final word was more powerful than Grant's, and it made me more emotional (it REALLY doesn't help that Leon looks like Kirishima but with a beard and piercings).

Mondo: Game or Anime

Do NOT get me wrong here. I LOVE Christopher Sabat and I really liked his performance as Mondo, but this was splitting hairs. I felt that his actor in the game, Keith Silverstein, did a slightly better job. Keith made Mondo both sound tough and also vulnerable without using a gruff voice like Chris. Only regret is that I wish game!Mondo tearfully explained what happened to his brother in the game, but yet another thing I liked in the anime more. And as a bonus and call it even, I think Chris would've been a good voice choice for Mondo's big bro.

Sakura: Game or Anime

This isn't entirely because I was used to hearing her voice in the game, but this was personal preference. I liked how both Jessica Gee-George and Rachel Robinson approached this gentle giant, by starting with a delicate voice for Sakura. But I liked how she sounded a little gruff in the game. Jessica's performance I feel like is especially noted whenever Sakura lets out her strongest emotions (such as her note).

Sayaka: Game or Anime

Monica Rial has grown to be who I consider one of my favorite voice actresses because of the range in her roles. While Sayaka in the game sounded really good and had more background, it's the anime take on her that gets it a little over the edge for the voice acting. I felt Monica better captured both the sweet AND despair-fueled side best.

Toko: Game or Anime

Like with Junko, Toko is voiced by two actresses in the game (though it's easier to tell based on the credits). But like Junko in the anime, she was voiced by one person: Carli Mosier. She was able to nearly capture the same meek personality of Toko as seen in the game, but it was her voice as Genocider Sho (still like Genocide Jill way more) that I liked. While Erin (Jill's VA in the game) made Genocide Jill sound crazy, Carli as Sho was also crazy, but also loud with was the polar opposite of Toko's personality in the first game.

Yasuhiro: Game or Anime

Yasuhiro has grown to be one of my favorites in the game/anime because of all the stupid nonsense he says. While I can tell Christopher Bevins had some fun voicing him in the anime, Kaiji Tang's performance was just a little better. The reason? He made Yasuhiro sound more like his age since he's the oldest student in the Hope's Peak gang.

Could I ask for SFW Ciel or Edward with a trans boy s/o (FTM)? 💙

Ciel with FTM s/o

I just want to mention that I hope I did this request justice. I have FTM friends they’re some of the most amazing people ever and although they speak to me of their issues I am not them so I could never truly understand. Just know you are valid no matter what. Don’t let people step on or disrespect you, shamelessly be yourself.

Considering no one ever makes negative mention of Grell referring to themselves as a woman, Ciel is accepting of his s/o being a trans boy. Honestly, he deals with Demons, Grim Reapers, murderers and cultists on a monthly basis, this revelation isn’t weird for him.

Just give him time at first to adjust, having an s/o who is trans is different than having a family member or friend who is. Yes, getting their pronouns right is easy, he adjusts quickly, but it’s the more intimate aspects that he needs time to learn.

Such as their needs and emotional care, it isn’t easy living in a place where they might not accept you and refuse to treat you as you see yourself. So, Ciel needs time to understand how to be an emotional support in that aspect, know what might trigger them and why.

On a happier note, Ciel is quick to get them a wardrobe that’s fitting for someone that stands by his side. If he and his s/o are the same size he’ll let them borrow clothing. He’s very vocal about what looks good on them and what doesn’t

Ciel puts them in the hands of Nina Hopkins and no one leaves her hands looking a mess!

SWTOR Thoughts: Companions

Here are my thoughts on the class companions. Only going through vanilla SWTOR, not going into KOTFE or beyond.

T7: Your basic R2 type little droid buddy. Fun to have around.

Kira Carsen: Interesting backstory. Weird that she’s described as the Knight’s padawan, though. Like her attitude.

Doc: I’d like him more if he wasn’t a womanizer.

Rusk: Somewhat zealous and ruthless. Still, fits for the Knight to have a soldier along.

Lord Scourge: This is how you do a party member who doesn’t necessarily get along or agree with you. You might not like him and he might not like you, but you’re both willing to work together for a united cause.

Qyzen: Interesting character, unique and enjoyable as a companion in a lot of ways. I am not comfortable with the Wookie thing. At all.

Tharan Cedrax: I’d like him more if he wasn’t a womanizer.

Zenith: This guy is interesting because he’s not just a resistance fighter, he’s a revolutionary. He’s somewhat of a morally grey character, but that makes him interesting.

Felix Iresso: I want nice things for my boy.

Nadia Grell: Kind of frustrating you don’t get her as a companion until the second to last planet of the main story. I do not feel comfortable with romancing her in the main game. At all.

Aric Jorgan: He’s rude, he’s a hardass, but I can’t help but like the guy. Helps that he’s got solid morals, too.

Elara Dorne: It takes a lot of guts to look at the society that raised you, say “I’m not okay with all these war crimes”, and run away, only to turn around and fight to take down that society. She’s great. Also, she’s totally autistic, and you can fight me on this. I will hear no bad things about her.

M1-4X: Interesting to have a droid along. They say some things that I am very uncomfortable with.

Tanno Vik: I don’t like him. Full stop.

Yuun: He is a fascinating character. Also, he’s a good guy who just wants to help. 10/10

Corso Riggs: Good kid. Honest fellow. Needs to work on the chauvinism.

Bowdaar: Manages to give us a fresh take on a Wookie party member, which is nice.

Risha: Is she out to betray you? Is she secretly going to kill you? No, she’s really just kind of an awkward gearhead who secretly wants more friends. She’ll never admit it, though.

Akaavi Spar: She is a Mandalorian. She has muscles. YES. Kinda wish she was less pro-Empire, though.

Guss Tuno: This kid is so far over his head it’s ridiculous. Honestly, shouldn’t be looking at criminals for role models, but I think he’s got a good heart.

Vette: She’s great. Ex-pirate, skilled thief, and manages to remain cheerful and kindhearted throughout it all.

Malavai Quinn: On the one hand, he’s cute, competent, and very much interested in a meritocracy. On the other hand, he’s racist, imperialistic, and will do war crimes. So, I’ll take him along, but I won’t like it.

Jaesa Willsaam: Girl needs some time to be herself. Also needs time to figure out who she wants to be. I just want nice things for her.

Pierce: He’s a bloodthirsty dick. Idk what else to say.

Broonmark: I can work with him.

Khem Val: How is the murderous assassin who starts off wanting me dead the most trustworthy person I meet for 4 planets?

Andronikos Revel: He’s softer than he acts. Not the best person, but hey, as long as I keep my knives out of his back he won’t try to shoot me. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Ashara Zavros: Gray Jedi. Thank goodness. Wish she could call me something besides “my lord”.

Talos Drellik: Dude’s an archaeologist and a cinnamon roll. He’s great. Wish he wasn’t so enthusiastic about the Empire, but nobody’s perfect.

Xalek: Idk, he joins so late I honestly just find him forgettable. He’s just kind of... there.

Kaliyo Djannis: I can work with her. But boy, do I always wait until I don’t have to.

Vector Hyllus: Great in every way. I will hear no badmouthing.

Lokin: Fun character. Gray morality, interesting to listen to, definitely enjoyable. Don’t eat or drink anything he gives you, though.

Raina Temple: Interesting character. She needs to have the propaganda washed out of her brain.

SCORPIO: I do not trust her as far as I could throw her. Which isn’t far.

Mako: What happens when a nerd becomes a mercenary. Also, cloning??

Gault: Okay, he’s a con man and a racketeer who’d probably sell me if he got a good deal, but until then, he’s fun to hang with.

Torian Cadera: Good kid. Being Mandalorian bumps up his coolness factor.

Blizz: Adorable little troublemaking escape artist. Love the little guy.

Skadge: I want a refund. Get this dumbass off my ship.

So a little bird told me you were taking Sebwill prompts. I thought I should take advantage of that! May I request something along the lines of SebWill superheroes/villains? Maybe they are mortal enemies by day, and lovers by night?

This is such a perfect combination of my interests, I am so damn here for it. I hope you enjoy it!

This ended up a little long, oops! Lol! I also absolutely kind of made a soup of DC hero/villain origins and mixed them together for this lol. Bonus points to anyone who can spot every one that I made a reference to! :D

==================================

Years ago, William had hid in his room after a horrible day. He was only about 15, wishing he could just fly away and leave.

Then… suddenly he found himself lying on his ceiling. It had taken him several long moments of panicking to realize he wasn’t dreaming, longer to realize he could move around as he wished.

And so… he opened his bedroom window, and left home, never to look back.

Anyone who knew him now would be shocked to find that at one point, William T. Spears who stood so straightly and kept every bit of him tidy and proper… had once been a scruffy, scrawny little teenage meta-human wandering the streets of London, getting into trouble and being chased by the authorities trying to take him into and orphanage or foster care… or worse, back home.

William had learned to live off the streets. At a certain point he had even gotten a little cocky, he was so fast that no one would even see him as he stole whatever he needed or wanted. He’d lead cops on a wild goose chase into alleyways that he knew like the back of his hand, only to float away to the rooftops out of sight.

He didn’t really make friends either. He mostly just had a small pack of birds that he split some of the spoils from his day out with when they came to the cracked window of the abandoned flat he had hid in.

He had always heard of heroes… saving the earth from threats both domestic and extra-terrestrial. Hell, he had seen one of them blast through London. On one hand he was curious, if maybe he and that super-being came from similar origins. But on another hand… he couldn’t help but resent the whole idea of heroes.

They certainly never protected kids like him.

That was the first time William had a sort of haunting thought. He had escaped because… he just happened to have these abilities that he still didn’t know the origin of… how many kids out there weren’t so lucky that weren’t being saved??

Well… maybe he could save them but, well when he looked around himself this was a fine nest for himself, but more than one person? Potentially kids even younger than him? How would he even look after them? He was 17 now… maybe he could pass as 18 if he cleaned up a bit, then maybe if he had enough money by then he could buy a better place and own it himself. How much did houses cost? It couldn’t be that much if lots of adults had them right?

He’d start stealing things to sell, he decided. He could get away with it, surely.

Well, his plan had fallen short, when he had been caught, stealing the tires off a rather fancy car since he was sure he could sell them for quite a bit.

The presumed owner of said car seemed oddly amused and calm at a scraggly un-kempt seventeen-year old stealing the tires of her car.

It was then another person came around the corner rambling on her phone, she seemed almost the same age as William, though maybe a little younger. She stared at William and who William now supposed was this young lady’s mother.

William decided now was the time to up up and away out of there, only suddenly, in a red blur, the young girl had jumped up and pulled him back down, she was fast… almost as fast as him.

“Excuse you! You can’t just steal our tires and go!” She scolded.

William had tried to escape, he’d found it easy to lift incredibly heavy objects including cars above his head, but now he couldn’t seem to pull her arms off him.

“Let me go!” He demanded.

“Now young man…” The girl’s mother said patiently. “How about you land yourself right back down on the ground and we can see about helping you out so you aren’t out here on the streets stealing tires.”

William glowered distrustfully, still thrashing in frustration as the young redheaded girl pulled him back down to the ground.

“If you haven’t noticed… we’re like you. We can help you… if you replace the tires and calm down.”

William had bit his lip. He didn’t trust this strange red-headed mother and daughter pair but then again… maybe… it would be nice to meet other people like him.

Begrudgingly he had put the tires back on quickly, and hesitantly sat in the back seat of the vehicle beside said girl who had been grinning at him since she had pulled him down to the ground.

“I’m Grell, what’s your name boy?”

William stared at her like she had grown horns for a moment before finally answering, realizing he hadn’t said his own name in a while.

“William.”

“William… you’d be rather handsome if you cleaned up a bit.” She teased with a small giggle.

It was that decision that led him to where he was now. It turned out he had been picked up and adopted by a very, very wealthy family that practically owned half the city. He learned he was a meta-human, and certain supernatural genetics had caused his abilities to develop. While he had flight and a decent amount of strength down, he eventually found his most key ability was telekinesis, allowing him to move around almost anything with solid mass with his mind.

Grell seemed to have both flight and strength as he did, but she also was far faster than him and caused fire to ignite out of thin air. It suited her red hair and personality perfectly in his mind.

Grell and him also saw rather eye to eye on using their meta-human abilities to give more attention to the people trapped in bad homes that needed saving and she became a pseudo-sister to him. He found out her mother had taken Grell when she was only 9 years old and run away with her in the middle of the night. Running far away from the father who had treated them both poorly. Then, Grell’s mother had been lucky enough to find love, not even knowing she was going to be marrying into a vast amount of money, but that had certainly been a nice bonus.

Outwardly of course, they were both celebrities of sorts, especially when they turned 18, they became public figures. Grell flourished happily in the spotlight. William on the other hand… could handle being polite and interacting with others at important events, but he really did hate all the attention – he was relieved when… at night, him and Grell would dawn garments to hide their well known identities, and would do the vigilante style work of trying to find and save kids from bad situations, feed those who needed it, and punch a few robbers and other criminals on the way if it served them.

William did sort of understand the superhero dilemma more now. It seemed as if something was always happening that would distract from the “smaller” work. He had been more than frustrated when a man… no…a demon it seemed that controlled and moved through the shadows decided to make William his arch nemesis. There was no clue to who this man causing chaos could be. His entire face was covered, not only making it seem as if he had no facial features, but it also made William wonder if there was a man under there how he saw or breathed with that thing on. It was also clear when this villain spoke he had some sort of voice filter on that scrambled the tone of his voice, causing it to sound garbled and off-putting.

His only solace between the stress of his daytime persona, and his ‘night job’ – was the boyfriend he had managed to be with despite at all. Sebastian Michaelis. They had met at a gala, and despite himself, after one dance, William could already feel himself being swept off his feet by the raven-haired man with a mischievous glint in his eyes. And so… after that, he had made a point to see him. Grell had teased him that he was absolutely head over heels for the gothic man that stuck out like a sore thumb against the light colors most of the people at gatherings tend to wear. Sebastian was dashing in his own right… and well, William had been called “Goth lite” by Grell as well as their mutual friend Ronald Knox. So they had something in common.

It wasn’t long before William had to admit he was head over heels for Sebastian, and they had begun their romantic outings. Of course their relationship eventually got media attention, they couldn’t go on dates for long without someone recognizing them. Somehow though, while it seemed Sebastian was also someone who reveled in the spotlight much more than William, the way Sebastian would hold him or rub his back soothingly made him feel more confident in handling such attention.

After about a year and a half of dates and nights spent together, William officially asked Sebastian to stay with him in his apartment. It was more of a condo than an apartment, but William didn’t like that word much. It was one of the properties that had been gifted to him that hadn’t been turned into a high-quality rescue shelter for children.

William… hadn’t told him about his night life yet, and Sebastian always seemed to take his word for it. It wasn’t he didn’t trust Sebastian, in fact he was beginning to feel as if he’d do just about everything for this man. Yet… well, vigilante-ing was dangerous business, even if you could fly and move things with your mind. He swore he’d tell Sebastian about his night life well before they got married.

But for now… he enjoyed moments like this, laying on top of him while they slept, ear pressed against his chest, listening to his heartbeat for comfort. Sebastian would often run his hand through William’s hair, effectively petting him until the stern man slept. He didn’t want these quiet, comforting moments to ever end….

…and he’d be damned if he let any sort of super-villain or threat come between them.

Blooper Reel~!

Theatre is beautiful because everything happens in the moment; all the successes, all the failures. As Furukawa himself puts it: “a mistake in a movie is just a mistake that can be fixed, but a mistake in theatre is the revelation of the risks performers take in front of thousands of people, every day.”

For “perfect” roles such as Sebastian however, any mistake is basically unforgivable. Now allow me to be a bad fan-mom and list a few of such ‘risks’ that went wrong (*´▽｀*)ノ

Disclaimer: these are only the things I happen to know of. These are probably not all that ever happened.

Furukawa Era Kuromyu Stories!

1. PHOEnnniiiiIiIixXXxx!

During a few performances in ‘Tango on the Campania’ Sebastyun lost his balance, and once he even keeled over ( ´艸｀)

2. January 28th 2018 - A disastrous day

Furukawa hit his head real hard into a stage prop during the scene where the iceberg got into sight. He couldn’t help but rub his head in pain, so Shunly (Aberline) and Tera (Hanks) stayed in character, asking “you alright bro?” while trying to hide their worry.

Furukawa also stepped on his swallowtail for the first time and almost slipped... only to then keel over during the curtain call.

My poor son (｡•́︿•̀｡)

3. Add insult to injury

In the grand final performance when Sebastyun handed his master his jacket, the boy took the thing but accidentally slapped the poor demon in the face with it. Oofff ₍₍₍( ≽艸⋞。)⁾⁾⁾ talk about adding insult to injury.

4. Death of the Death Scythe

In Academy Night G (click here for the subbed fragment) Uehara Takuya shared how during a brawl between Sebas and Grell he accidentally broke the chainsaw. He had used too much force onto the handle and broke it off, so he had to pretend to be holding the handle while the other arm carried all the weight of the prop itself.

5. BOUNCE

For the scene in Lycoris 2015 where Sebas removes his mask, Furukawa originally rehearsed to “drop the mask and scoop the mask coolly from the air at mid-stomach height.” During the first performance however, he dropped the mask and sent it bouncing on stage. From that moment on Furukawa decided to play it safe and “be a noob and catch the mask at chin height.”

【Click here for more about Furukawa’s anxieties.】

6. Leeeeegs

One time when Sebastyun was supposed to drop on the chair behind him during this ↓ scene he miscalculated the distance of the chair and ended up on the floor behind it.

His leeeegs are too long for him to accurately interpret depth huh.

【Click here for how Furukawa’s leeeeegs are so long he literally broke formation in Kuromyu.】

【Click here, here , here and here for more about leeeeeegs】

TOHO Theatre Reel!

1. Der Noodlearms

In the performance of ‘Elisabeth’ on July 19th 2019, Furukawa was supposed to carry Elisabeth bridal style and put her in her bed. As Prince Noodlearms however, he needed to first wrap Manaki’s (Elisabeth) arm around his neck to let her support some of her own weight... As he trudged the few metres towards the bed however, he still managed to almost dropped her ( ´艸｀)

In an earlier performance (which I sadly did not attend) he did actually drop her... poor Manaki, poor Furukawa... I love you both.

【Click here, here and here for more on Prince Noodlearms. 】

2. Don’t puke

In one performance of ‘M.A.’ Furukawa was supposed to sing ‘don’t cry’ (nakanaide), but he misspoke and ended up singing ‘hakanaide’ meaning “don’t puke”.

3. Leeeeegs II

They just had to put Furukawa on high heels for ‘Mozart!’... and poor, poor Furukawa tumbled off the stairs as many as FIVE times throughout the run of the show (;; ＞艸＜;;)

4. The Notorious Balcony

The infamous balcony scene of ‘Romeo & Juliette’ became the notorious balcony scene for Furukawa once he fell off the balcony once.

His Romeo is a goof-ball anyway so it’s still in-character though! ^ω^

Matsushita Era Kuromyu

This is not a Matsushita Era Kuromyu blog, but bloopers are always funny, so BONUS SECTION!!!

1. "AAAAAGHHH, I’m calling for you!!!!”

Once during the prologue of Lycoris 2014 when Matsushita Sebas was supposed to come out of the horse as the OMINOUS MUSIC SWELLED!!!!........the horse didn’t open and he was stuck inside... leaving Matsushita bonking against the horse calling for help.

｡・ﾟ・(｡つ∀≦｡)・ﾟ・｡ Gosh imagine the anti-climax!!!

2. Contract sign?

In one of the performances of MBD the contract sign screen that was supposed drop got stuck. Oh well, unlike the one above this is not the end of the day I guess.

3. Death of the Death Scythe II

Though also not as hilarious as the first one from the Matsushita Era, this one sure was quite disastrous! During a brawl between Sebas and Grell the entire blade of Grell’s chainsaw came off! Matsushita was supposed to be scythed a bit later, so they couldn’t drop the scythe altogether. I don’t know how they fixed that problem... alas.

Well, these were all the Kuromyu and Furukawa related bloopers I know of off the top of my head. I hope you had a good time giggling!

#Bloopers #theater is GORGEOUS #Furukawa Yuta #Yun #Yunbastian #Sebastyun #Uehara Takuya #Matsushita Yuya #Yuya Matsushita #MBD #Most beautiful death in the world #RetJ #Romeo & Juliette #MA #Marie Antoinette #Elisabeth #Mozart

This Too Shall Pass

Chapter III: The Reaper.

London was no longer London. At least not the London he had come to love. Now it was a mix of modern buildings as tall as the sky itself. The old carriages over the years had been replaced by modern cars much faster and more compact at the same time. Now there were buses and even high-speed subway trains. Modernity was a new world and infinite possibilities. There was no misinterpretation, he had adapted well throughout all these years. He had learned to use every technological advance that came his way: cell phones, computers, the glorious internet, television. He even enjoyed from time to time going to the movies. He had learned that the latter was not significantly different from how people's cinematics records worked and that in a way filled him with pride. Even if he was a deserter, he had to accept that his people were far more intelligent and advanced than humans. He was used to modern life; it could be said that he even enjoyed it. He had come to learn some of the little pleasures that this era could bring him. He could sit for hours in some trendy little cafe, (where in order to pay a cup of tea, a regular person would have to consider selling a kidney on the black market) just to watch humans live their lives as fast as possible, coming and going without even pausing for a second to look to the side or behind, without even having the slightest consideration for what they did to the other or to the world in which they lived. These people lived oblivious of the finiteness and fragility of their bodies. They walked around proud of their cars, their clothes, their lovers and their promising careers, never stopping to look at or ask the needs of the others, never acknowledging that in the end death was inevitable and that at the last breath she equalled them all. Royalty, politicians, businessmen or beggars, they would all follow the same path and some of his former colleagues would be willing and able to judge them and take them without the possibility of the slightest protest. Oh these humans, they would never know what they got till is lost forever. He had lost everything once, even his sanity, and he was sure he would not do it again. Not now that he saw things as they were. His obsession with death had long been replaced by his obsession with life. That was what had driven him away from what had made him a legend so long ago, and what drives him crazy every time a little more. It was the burning desire to know what life was afterlife itself. How to prolong it, recover lost moments, and why not, create new ones. How to find once again what was lost and how to restore it as an exquisite work of art. Ironically, to reach his goal, he needed death: he was tied to it, and just today, in these times, the business of death was dying. Hilarious. Something as simple as passing, now it was complicated. In the good old days, when he had decided to turn his back on everything he knew, he had become London's best-known mortician. With his small business in Camden Town, he had had access to the most extraordinary elites of English society, and yet also made important contacts with simple commoners. As an undertaker, he had connections, the most varied and they all turned to him. Of course, he was not moved by money, he had never cared, he simply demanded in return a good joke that would make him laugh. After all, even death was not to be taken too seriously. He ran his business diligently getting to know more people than he ever imagined, one more curious and entertaining than the other. As an informant for the queen's watchdogs, he had managed to get into the elite, and thus each subject of study reached him without significant problems. He was happy, Oh what wouldn't he give for listening to the Earl's little voice once more asking for information? That butler was an incredible specimen, and he would have loved to dissect him. Oh lord, if only the little boy wouldn't be so stubborn about his stupid vengeance. Today the Parlour was not enough. Undertaker knew that if he wanted to continue his investigations even nearly 200 years later and with many incredible technological improvements, he had to be able to access another source of income. Modern times meant diversifying. Today, everyone's favourite mortician was no longer called to make arrangements for the afterlife. No. Now there were hundreds of other undertakers who did the same as him. Therefore, a place in the hospital morgue had been secured for some time. Who better than him, after years and years of seeing corpses to perform an autopsy and making himself time to take a look at his hidden agenda secretly? So yes, Undertaker was happy. Even if he missed the old times sometimes, he still ran his Parlour in the afternoons and was a forensic doc in the mornings. Just like a superhero with a secret identity, thinking about it, too many identities. Undertaker was sitting on the counter at his place, his long booted legs swinging lazily. The newspaper rested next to him, he had just finished reading the news, and they were hopeless, people in London were dying in droves, more like hundreds a day and that sort of hurt. Of course, he had witnessed other pandemics and knew very well what the consequences were. Not only did people die from the disease itself, but the devastation left, and the collateral damages were incalculable. It was as if the Horseman of the Apocalypse from the bible really put his feet on the slaughtered Earth. Undertaker knew that by now his fellow shinigamis would be desperate from overwork and felt sorry for them. How much would the lists of people to die have increased in recent months? He also felt sorry for the doctors who work non-stop to save lives. Two sides of the same coin: medical services and shinigamis, both barely surpassed by an infamous virus invisible to everyone's eyes, even his own. He regretted his work in the hospital too, it had been interrupted in these months, and he no longer had access to people's bodies for security measures. Obviously, the virus did not affect him in the least, but he had to keep up appearances. He sighed bored as his black nails drummed on the surface of the counter, he had no pending work, and he only had to wait. Sighed and wait. No more laugh, no more research, no more hilarious strange glances from his fellow doctors, nothing. Just desolation in every corner. His day couldn't get any worse, he burnt his bone-shaped cookies and was running out of tea. He would have to go to the store soon. He hated the store, he much preferred Lau's herbs, even the funny ones, those who made people laugh and relax when used in the right amount, and if not, still, he was not one to judge. So picking up the keys, he was ready to go out when something or somebody took him by surprise. "Heh heh, but if it's none other than the red shinigami ~ Tell me, sweety, Dear William gave you some free time?" "Undertaker, always a pleasure ..." Grell began nervously. Being in front of the legend of the shinigamis made him nervous "I have a favour to ask you." "A favour? Hmm ... How long has it been since the last one?" The silver-haired man chuckled, removing his bangs from his eyes. "You know what to do ~ give it to me first. Come on, you know what I want." "Undertaker ..." Grell pleaded "Now is not the time, besides you know I don't know how to do it." "My my, your face is priceless; you are still a nervous wreck." The Undertaker smiled almost fondly at the younger reaper. "What do you want?" "I need you ..." Undertaker raised an interested eyebrow, putting the keys back where he had found them, the tea could wait. Not every day a Shinigami would show up at the doors of a deserter asking for help. "I mean... WE need you." "You mean the London Despatch?..." Disbelief in his words, Grell nodded "Now, that's the joke of the century Grell, come on, I don't have time, I'm running out of tea". Grell Sutcliff rolled his eyes. He hadn't changed in years, Undertaker was just the same and he kind of like it. If it weren't for his relationship with William, Oh, the things he could do to the revel grim reaper in front of him. "Really, Undertaker? Is that what you do now? Take tea like an old lady?" the red-head spoke loudly, pointing at Undertaker's hidden scythe. "Well ... I'm quite old after all" Undertaker smiled and Grell pouted. "Ok, Ok. Why don't you take a seat on one of my special coffins and explain yourself?" Grell blew out the breath he didn't know he was holding and accepted the invitation. It was his idea after all, and he couldn't bring a no for an answer to his beloved William.

The chilly winter covered the city with a heavy mist. The sky threatened to snow at any moment. It didn't take long to convince him. Once young Grell Sutcliff had finished telling him his crazy plan and talked about how much the Despatch needed the help, he was ready to go. Plus, the red riper dared to say that the snob William T. Spears would have more than a headache knowing that he, the renegade shinigami, would accomplish the task better and faster, and nothing made him happier than bother poor Will. He was ready to wear the shinigami outfit one more time. He had to admit that he had missed it and that there was nothing like fieldwork. He was prepared to prove that no one could ever match him. Within just a few hours, he had been able to carry out the work of four shinigamis together and was just getting started. He caressed his lifelong companion with devotion, he had never gotten rid of his lover, and today they were walking together once more. His scythe was fantastic, and he loved her. Standing on the terrace of the hospital, he checked the list one more time. There were only two names left before the end of the shift when something caught his attention. She wasn't on the list moments ago. Her name had appeared suddenly, and she should not be there: Gwenhwyfar O'Doherty. He knew her, he had seen her from time to time in the corridors of the hospital. The young Irish doctor, lovely green eyes, cute freckles, she was so full of life. Working diligently every day to save others and yet here she was about to take the somersault that would make her, at best, one of his own kind. She wasn't ready to go, the world needed her. "I wouldn't do that if I were you, dear~ You are very much need it right now~." and his soft chuckle got lost in the winter night.

Imperial-Topaz ranks SWTOR Romances...redux

I know I did this earlier this year, but I've done some thinking and have a few reconsiderations. My thoughts haven't largely changed, so I'm not gonna to the giant 'why I (don't) like this romance' descriptions. Instead, I'll just tell you which ones I changed my mind on.

19. Kaylio Djannis

18. Doc

17. Corso Riggs

16. Jaesa Willsaam (dark side)

15. Raina Temple

14. Andronikos Revel

13. Felix Iresso

12. Nadia Grell

11. Akaavi Spar

10. Ashara Zavros

9. Torian Cadera

8. Risha Drayen

7. Elara Dorne

6. Malavai Quinn

5. Mako

4. Vector Hyllus

3. Vette

2. Aric Jorgan

Kira Carsen

As for changes... Nadia, just rewatched her romance path and I have softened up to it...quite a bit actually. Still, I believe it's best saved for KOTXX, hence why it's still kinda high up.

Akaavi and Risha, opinions are largely the same, but in hindsight I realized I like Risha a bit more. Vector, also rewatched his romance...and realized what a crime it was to not put him in the top 5. Sorry, Vector-stans. Also, make him Bi, already!

001 - Black Butler!

You sent me this ages ago, and I only just remembered it!

Favorite character: It’s a tie between Ciel and Sebastian, depending on my mood and how terrible they’re being. Ciel has more going on with him, but Sebastian is basically demon!Jeeves, which I love.

Least favorite character: Hmm, probably Baron Kelvin from the Circus Arc. Creep.

5 favorite ships (canon or non-canon): I don’t really ship anything for Black Butler, except Agni and Soma because they were adorable, and Grell’s crushes on anything handsome that moves are fun.

Character I find most attractive: Mey-Rin and I have two things in common: we both wear glasses and like looking at Sebastian. Undertaker, Grell, and Wolfram from the Green Witch arc are all easy on the eyes. A special shout-out to Sebastian in disguise as “Father Jeremy Rathbone”, although that might be cheating since he’s basically Jeremy Brett.

Character I would marry: Eh, most of the characters in Black Butler aren’t exactly marriage material. Alexis Midford seems like a pretty good guy, and he has a good relationship with his wife. Abberline also seems nice, and we both share an interest in art.

An unpopular opinion: I don’t know how popular or unpopular this is, but my favorite aspect of the series is when Sebastian and Ciel are running around solving crimes. Which is probably why I liked the Public School arc.

My canon OTP: Don’t really have one.

My non-canon OTP: Agni and Soma probably come the closest.

Most epic villain: I don’t think anything matches Undertaker’s reveal during the Campania arc or what happened in the Blue Star Cult arc.

Pairing I’m not a fan of: Ciel/Lizzie. Even with all of Lizzie’s devotion and passion, I think Ciel just has too many reservations and barriers to make her as happy as she deserves, and those were my feelings even before the revelations in Chapter 129.

Character I feel the writers screwed up: Not really a character, and I’ll emphasize that I’m really, really behind on the manga, but I still need to be sold on the revelations in the Blue Star Cult arc. Not saying there was no foreshadowing or that it came out of nowhere, just haven’t been sold on this development. Again, personal preference, but my favorite aspect of Black Butler is “A Boy and his Demon Solve Crimes in Highly Stylized Victorian London”.

Favorite friendship: Now here’s where I can put Ciel and Sebastian! I love how they constantly pull each other’s hair, but they need each other and complement each other well.

Character I most identify with: I can’t say I strongly identify with anyone in the series.

Character I wish I could be: Oh to be as OP as Sebastian, without the whole demon thing.

Bringing back Black Butler actor AU by writing a bunch of headcanons for it

Sebastian has a dog, yes. He loves it very much, a big fat bulldog that WILL run at you to show you love

The children do homeworks on set so an adult can help them LMAO (don't ask Will though he hated that shit)

Not Sieglinde though, she's homeschooled!! Sucks to sucks, it's not easy being rich 😩😩

Grell and Sebastian are childhood best friends. Sebastian's the one who scored her the role because he "works well with his bestie"

Grell: I genuinely thought I was just going to play a cute butler who's going to have this big gender identity revelation but turns out my best friend just thinks I'm a psychopath so that's nice to hear

Ron originally was a make-up staff who did stand-in for script readings but then the director was like "you're the perfect amount of British"

William genuinely adores Grell because she's been in the industry longer and also she's hot as hell

Madam plays extras after her death scene

Madam: I was just too hot to be alive </3

This is Lizzie's first role and for her great work, she was allowed to bring home 3 dresses of her liking

Had it been their way, Redcliff would've had more screentime and deeper relationships but ig ppl aren't ready for that

The one who breaks character the most is Ciel and the one who does it the least is surprisingly Finnian

Finnian is more known for darker and more serious depictions of teens so when he got casted, everyone was like "we're about to witness mental illness y'all"

Ran Mao is very talkative outside of her screen time. Girlie would infodump about her favorite thing that month to everyone

Mey Rin's a Chinese diaspora and so Lau takes her to 'reconnecting with your roots' trip at least twice a month

Ran Mao's a streamer and it's just her yelling "A FUCKING MONA 💀💀💀"

Lau is actually younger than Sebastian, Madam and Grell so when he first started, he called everyone with honorifics because this is his first non-chinese film and wow you white people really do go call everyone by their names even if they're older

Yes, this is an excuse for him to call Grell "Grell jiejie" and I just think that's cute and I love it. As a Chinese who can't speak Mandarin for shit, I want to call her jiejie LEAVE ME BE

Sieglinde has a very thick German accent that slips sometimes and whenever that happens, she and Ciel starts laughing

Sienglinde: it's not my fault you british have weird as hell accents

Ciel, a british: YOU TAKE THAT BACK

Lizzie brings all the young sapphic watchers bcs y'all,,,my girl is not straight at all and if she is, it's written in the most cursive shit ever

Sebastian on Grell's Instagram comments: SO TRUE QUEEN, MY WIFE, MY LOVE, PLEASE MARRY ME ❤

Grell replying back: lol no you're ugly /j

Grell is unfortunately a brunette irl rip to her roasting her own hair

The ones who are the least like their characters: Ciel (dude he's like 13), William (very sweet and soft-spoken, hates confrontation)

The ones who are literally their characters: Lau (he doesn't have a script, that's just him), Lizzie

Sebastian did actually accidentally stepped on Grell's face. He felt so bad that he kneeled to the floor and basically gave her an apology poem while she's just >:( that she has to redo her makeup

Mey Rin is blind as shit irl, she's just like me fr

Mey Rin: I wished I could see really far instead but no, I can't even see past my own nose

Ran Mao followed Lau's footsteps and calls (only) Grell "jiejie" because she likes her the best LMAO. The highest honor from Ran Mao is if she calls you with a Chinese honorofic, unless if you're Lau in which case she feels obligated to call him 'Lau gege'

Ciel is absolutely in awe with Sebastian's acting skills, he's all starry-eyed like "TEACH ME PLS"

Sebastian could only dance thanks to his theater kid days with Grell

I firmly believe that Sienglinde would love kpop and Hatsune Miku

Finnian has a RBF when he doesn't realize it, it scared Ciel shitless the first time

#kuroshitsuji #black butler #grell sutcliff #kuroshitsuji grell #sebastian michaelis #william t spears #kuroshitsuji madame red #madame red #our ciel #ciel phantomhive #elizabeth midford #finnian kuroshitsuji #lau kuroshitsuji #ran mao #black butler actor au
