dug up this handy dandy graphic i made last year to explain my kukugumi hcs on a sliding scale of touch-starved to touchy
(reasoning under the cut:)
hikari & maya: self-explanatory. you don’t look at either of these two and think “well-adjusted.” i wholeheartedly believe that the closest thing hikari had to a hug before seisho was a mr. white pillow and the closest thing maya had to a friend was her idol saijou claudine, of whom she has all the bonus dvd content
junna: she’s a normal person. neither touch-starved nor touchy but she gets points for dipping karen out of nowhere, though i maintain that that was mostly for The Drama and not an indicator of her usual physicality
banana: she gives hugs which bumps her above junna but i feel like she’s more of an acts of service kind of person, ya know? also she probably rarely is on the receiving end of a comforting hug bc of her insistence to take care of everybody else, all the time. hop to it, junna!
futakao: literally always in contact with one another. the only reason they’re not higher is that they mostly just cling to each other (and banana, once, notably)
mahiru: she has four siblings and two children in the form of her roommates (one of whom she glomps on-screen), she has more physical affection than she knows what to do with. she’s bumped down in rankings because she’s a little more reserved than the next two menaces
claudine: she will whisper bonjour into your ear with no prompting, drape her arm over your seat while she slides next to you, make you believe she’s gonna kiss you with a hand on your cheek and a sudden closing of distance, spring a surprise waltz on you, hug you after battling through the school basement bogeymen on your first day of class to introduce herself etc. etc. and she will do it all with no shame whatsoever. i don’t think we acknowledge just how much of a cassanova kuro is just because she’s too often nerfed by maya but goddamn the effect she had on asami in overture, amemiya, lalafin and the frontier girls in the lovers’ bond story, even yachiyo in twenty faces--saijou claudine is canonically bitchless but if she knew what a work-life balance was she’d pull. that’s my manifesto
karen: she beats claudine by a slim margin because of the torpedo-like quality of her enthusiasm and the inescapable strength of her grip. if kaoruko had the lower body strength to drag karen across the floor in episode 6, karen would have held fast and let her do the dragging.
i completely forgot about doin it right by daft punk until i saw that one bo burnham vine where he does the little finger thing and i was like oh my god what is that song i have heard that before and i realized it was daft punk
heres the video 😛
oh my god i thought the ihop collab was just letting you get that amy skin with ihop points or whatever but apparently you can get entire games too and to get frontiers you have to buy 200 dollars worth of food. just buy the game normally at that point wtf thats literally only a good deal if you were already spending a bunch of money on ihop and/or just happened to have a bunch of points saved before this collab even began
andrew minyards a physical media (“why would i only keep it online what if my account gets deleted and i dont have my music anymore”) guy and neil jostens a streaming only (“yeah there could be a fire and all your cds would burn”) guy and they silly argue over it all the time
omg, so someone asked me about the last crimson dawn concert ft. scotty and it's taking me a while because i am finally...writing? actually good stuff again? oh my god? i love having free time! but i just wanted you to know what they do on birthdays in the band. xx
why in the fuck do they make appling for a university course so fucking hard. I keep looping back to the same fucking website, you'd think they'd be far more eager to take my money!
