Asking you to talk more on sukuna nd feet 😛😛

of COURSE !!!

I'm just still stuck on thinking about Sukuna being HELLA ancient and that really only coming through his ... sexual preferences, and by extension... his preferences for the body, right? Which ik we're thinking is his liking for the body as it comes naturally, naked and untouched and etc...

SO, it makes perfect sense that he loves a nicely done-up foot because ... even if you're wearing clothes, a healthy looking, decorated foot is one way to show off the quality of your body without sacrificing much of your integrity, or the appearance of that specific body part... for EXAMPLE:

You can be wearing whatever kind of clothing you want, but with a beautiful mani-pedi and nice shoes, people look at you and KNOW you take care of your skin !!!

And for Sukuna, that's literally... nut-worthy automatically. That his woman is so cared for she, not only has hands, but FEET too, that instead of showing the affects of hard work on them... are pampered beyond belief and always look delicious.

Even if you do use your hands for work, or have hands that show that kind of hard work on them, the second Sukuna attaches himself to you, that's one of the first things he demands you fix (by paying for your spa appointments, of course)... and ain't no way in hell he's taking no for an answer.

(I don't even think it's something he cares about until he realizes he can care about it. He's just chilling, living his best, king-of-curses life... and then one day he notices you putting lotion on your heels before bed and the next time your legs are in the air, he's pressing your feet to his face. Or you put on an anklet just for the day and he doesn't let you take it off ever again, ONLY ever change it so he can hear the sound of it jingle when he's fucking you better. Or you come home with white toenails after a pedicure with your friends and suddenly he's kissing your toes before he eats you out every. single. time. No brain ONLY boner from there on out.)

When he finally gets into the groove, tho (or in an automatic, non-curse AU), Sukuna is definitely picky about what kinds of designs and colors you get during mani-pedis. It's so weird of him because he's a full on evil CURSE, but I know he's walking into that salon right along with you and not just watching your toes get scrubbed and painting, but helping you pick out the colors and diamonds too....

He scrutinizes your poor nail tech sooo hard, one of those guys who takes off from the tip immediately if they accidentally nick you with the clippers, or file something a little too roughly. His inspection face is so funny, because even though he's supposed to be there spending time with YOU, his eyes are on your tootsies the whole time (like a freak).

You can convince him to let you get fun colors (and tbh, you ARE the one who put him onto including crystals or doing frenchies in the first place), but I know he's a such a particular man when it comes to making sure your nail colors are ALWAYS elegant. Loves a classic nude or pink, sometimes lets you experiments with white or a couple crystals... but the whole point is that he never has to see your feet covered again, only ever decorated and in strappy-heels for the rest of TIME.

(And don't even get me started on how much he gets off on watching you do your skincare, too. Anything to do with taking care of your body he loves, adores, is obsessed with; you doing your hair. Putting on your lotion or oils. Washing yourself, your leg up on the side of the bathtub.

Plus, he never wants to see you in makeup or shaving or anything of the sort. He only wants you bare and raw the way you were made... and yes that means he will buy you ¥50000 korean skincare essence but refuse to buy you foundation from the convenience store.)

THANK U FOR ASKING, ANON, LOVE U!

#sukuna #he drives me INSANEEEEE #his preferences are balls to the wall insane i love it about him tho #was just gonna say that i got all into thinking abt this bc i was looking at clothes from the heian period (1000 years ago japan... #like when he was born) #and like. feet were some of the only body parts openly displayed and not under layers #so i think thats where the foot thing comes from at the berry least #god if he could have it his way the only thing you'd be wearing is body chains and vaseline LOL bootie out 24/7 #i'd be fully down tho #anon #caitie things #gen

I can't help but wonder how countries without family feel.

hey man, i don't remember if this was in reference to something or just a random thought but not good,,,

Feliks and Kiku rn are the only two i have who had human families that are obviously not around, nor would either know where to even start looking for their decedents and while thousands of years have passed and you learn to cope and find family in your friends they're both still just,,,

Feliks is jealous of Raivis and Tolys having each other, same with Erzsí, Kalev and Timo and fuck it he's even jealous of Katya, Ivan, and Natalya. Because they may not get along but they still technically have each other. and he doesn't remember his parents, and he barely remembers his siblings and Erzsébet will offhandedly mention her father and he would kill to be able to remember anything about his. and he would kill to be able to hug his youngest sister, the one he remembers the best, and she lived a long life and she made it to 80 while he was still just six.

and Kiku has spent far longer truly alone and he's learned not to think about it too hard. 3000 years wipe away parents, siblings, any family he might have had. But gosh sometimes is it hard to ignore it when ancestor worship is (was?) such a big thing, and he would have spurts where he would just lock himself in his house to not have to think about it, because what does he know of his family? They were human. They were human, and he's not. and now he's alone.

#hws poland #hws japan #genuinely do not know how long thats been in my inbox but uh #yeah #not well #they're not doign well #also i don't mean only as in they're the only two who ever will be i just haven't thought to hard about other nations that have human famil #theyre the wrriten out ones #well Luxembourg's dad was human but he's a side thought on this #bc lux still has family that are nations too

Reverse DL-6 where the gun Miles threw aimed just a liiiitle differently and ended up shooting Von Karma dead. Because apparently nobody on the DL-6 case was at all competent they can’t figure out what caused his death so it just gets ruled a suicide. Miles is too loopy from oxygen deprivation to remember throwing the gun and due to his dad still being alive he never gets the trauma nightmares that make him remember. Everything is objectively better for everyone until Franziska von Karma, years later, re-opens the case, and because she’s actually competent, figures out it must’ve been one of the three people in the elevator who shot him. Cue Defense Attorney Miles Edgeworth defending his dad from a murder charge that, honestly, really looks quite plausible.

#'but the statute of limitations -' you think franziska cares about the statute of limitations? grow up #i have no real point with this au except that i think the idea is funny. who's miles weird little girl? #my posts #miles edgeworth #franziska von karma #'but there's no way the cops didn't figure out that he must've been killed' i mean yeah but like #a) the ppl who investigated the dl-6 somehow thought the case was difficult enough to bring in a medium despite the only suspects being #a grown adult man who works in security and who had access to a gun. or an actual 9-year-old #so i think it's safe to say they're not great at drawing logical conclusions #and b) don't quote me on this bc i read this ages ago but i'm pretty sure part of the reason the unsolved murder cases in japan is so low #and the suicide rate is so high is bc every time the police can't solve a murder they just rule it a suicide #obviously that's not the ONLY reason for the suicide rate but you know. still fucked up #anyway i think that's something fucked up enough it'd definitely be a thing in the ace attorney universe

HOW IS IT

THAT WE GOT

the degree that the fanwar that started because of the wataei vs lightbrush poll escalated was kind of horrible but that doesnt change the fact that the funniest diss ive ever seen is still "i hope when enstars ends wataru and eichi both marry women"

#like its funny bc if by the time enstars ends eichi still hasnt made gay marriage legal in japan #and we see what the rest of their lives are like #those two will absolutely be portrayed like those historical figures who never married and lived out the rest of their days celibate #only corresponding with their boy best friends in ardent letters #angel.txt

2x21 "crisis" really is a perfect episode

#mash #i cannot BELIEVE the plot of this episode was really it's cold and we need to snuggle for warmth #the supply line got cut off so we need communal sleepovers for Morale Reasons #it's PERFECT! #i just know frank is that kid who's like 'can we please be quiet and go to sleep' #frank thinks they're gonna get in trouble if they're too loud #i'm going to finish s2 today and i really enjoyed it overall! #i think it's stronger than s1 (understandably) and the episodes have more rewatchability #however on the other hand there episodes like for want of a boot and as you were that feel like all set up and no payoff #similarly dear dad 3 didn't really feel committed to the epistolary format and didn't do anything interesting or meaningful with it #also bc i am a person who loves spoilers and context i know what happens to henry so every passing episode i am filled with dread #that's my DAD what do you MEAN he's gonna get shot down over the sea of japan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #also mclean stevenson is giving possibly my favourite performance. he's just Saying things by accident #not one word in his mouth has ever been there on purpose he is possessed by the spirit of your dumbest uncle #i'm still lukewarm on trapper. the vulture instinct i feel on account of him looking like buddy the elf has settled #i no longer want to tear that man to shreds out of primal rage i only wish he'd get his own plot & a more distinct personality #those are all my thoughts rn #i have to bribe myself with the Very Special Gay Episode so i can finish this cover letter #id in alt text

mentally holding my own face in my hands like “you’re not incapable of being loved, you just have pmdd and you couldn’t take your medication for six weeks.”

#cw: #mental illness #pmdd #I do not regret my time in japan but my primary medication IS illegal there #and bc there was no way to take only a partial bottle and I couldn’t afford to throw out almost an entire bottle upon arrival #I couldn’t take it for the entire time I was out of the country #I’ve had my first dose but it takes time to build up and pmdd is now so #shrug emoji

Hachi was named for the time of her birth- born precisely at 8:00 am according to the medical staff (as "hachi" is also the pronunciation for the number 8 in Japanese). Hachi's name is written with the katakana ハチ. It is worth noting that names written in hiragana or katakana do not hold specific meanings as names written in kanji do; they are purely phonetic.

While it's not uncommon for given names to be written in the phonetic-based katakana or hiragana rather than kanji, and while Hachi has no issue with the name or the set of characters selected on its own, it occasionally becomes a point of insecurity for her when contrasted to her sister Emi's name, which is written in kanji--specifically, the kanji 恵美 (恵 meaning "blessing, favour, benefit" and 美 meaning "beautiful, pretty").

For Emi's name to so deliberately note her as beautiful blessing while Hachi's name is much more simply based off of the time of her birth, well, it's prime fodder for (over?)thinking when Hachi gets caught up in trying to analyze it.

#my brain has not cooperated for ic replies this weekend (sorry to those waiting;;) but i at least finally got around to writing this out #headcanons. #i saw the name hachi spelled with the '八' (8) kanji. but it looks like this one is used for boys? #or at least it seems like it would be unorthodox to name a girl hachi using that standalone kanji...? i am not an expert though #ive seen the fem. name hachISE use the '八' kanji in it (八星) #but idk if this kanji would only rlly be used as part of a fem. ver of hachi where there was smth added at the end like w/ hachise #anyways. i've read that 8 is seen as lucky in japan because the kanji 八 widens/flares out at the bottom #which evokes the idea of growth/prosperity/good fortune...? #so those times i reference old classmates jokingly thinking hachi is lucky bc of her name it's coming from that lol #and in the end i opted for the phonetic katakana option ハチ rather than using any of the fem. kanji options i saw for the name hachi #bc i really did want 8 to be the primary 'source' of the naming decision. #GOD i am hoping this all tracks. i tried to cross-reference and check this against multiple sites/sources where i could. #but this is not a language that i write/speak so at the end of the day i'm no expert. #TRAGICALLY funny that hachi's mom was like 'the one who looks like me? a beautiful gift. :) the one who doesn't? ummmm eight.'

it’s been a while since i rlly binge-read a manga, but i read Gachi Koi Nenchakujuu bc a live action was announced with some toku actors in the cast (hiroki matsumoto, who’s kanata in ultraman decker, and kohaku shida, who’s haruka in donbrothers) so i was curious. now i’m kind of obsessed with it. it’s about gachikoi fans who r obsessed with a streamer group to the point of extremely toxic behavior, including but not limited to: manipulation, kidnapping, stabbing, getting canceled on twitter, lying, cheating, etc. it’s rlly messed up but also rlly interesting!

#the translations r only about thru book 4 while book 10 is set to release at the end of this month in japan i think #but the translator(s) r clearly working rlly hard to put out chapters before the drama comes out #they’ve been releasing chapters every few days #so kanata decker plays a streamer who goes by ginga (lmao) and his main arc hasn’t happened yet and i’m sooooo curious waugghhhh #and haruka onisister plays a gashikoi fan named yuuko who’s kind of an antagonist in the second arc #not art #manga #i think last time i did a binge read manga review was for ranger reject lol #and the art is rlly cool to me #it’s v dynamic #the set up is kind of each streamer member has his own arc that focuses on his gachikoi fans #which also makes me curious about the third arc bc ginga seems to have like 3 gachikoi fans (?) #and 1 of them is a guy who also became a streamer ? #he seems to be the main one for ginga’s arc bc he was also revealed in the live action cast #whereas the other ones were not #sorry i posted a blurb on twitter already so sorry if u saw this twice 😅 #it got some messed up stuff in it but i recommend it if u r fine with that! #average day on stan twitter tbh #gachi koi nenchakujuu: net haishinsha no kanojo ni naritakute #gachi koi nenchakujuu

talked to one of my colleagues and he said he's lived in 20 different countries and spent most of his life in the uae although he's originally from an english-speaking country. so i asked him if he spoke any other languages. and he seriously fucking said "no, everyone just speaks english anyway" :|

#i mean i get not learning the language of every single country you've lived in to fluency if you move around a lot but wow #i figured if he'd spent most of his life in the uae he'd maybe know a bit of arabic?? but apparently not #he's been in japan a year and he's so proud of the fact he just gets out a phrase book and points to what he wants to say :| #he's also literally the whiniest person i've ever met #everything is a problem and he's always the hard-done-by victim #he truly is the anti-me honestly #i don't even know what he likes bc he never talks about what he likes he just spends all his time complaining #asides from ww2 history and i only know that bc someone got him a book for his birthday

I’ve been streaming this game for a few of my friends lately and unfortunately it’s made my obsession worse and only like 10 people have played this game so I’m making my own damn posts (pt 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 )

#even if tempest #I will probably post more of these. later because I've made 60 already I'm sorry #text post edits #I refuse to tag all these damn characters boy no ones even looking for them #long post #ALSO this game sold 10k copies but idk if that was only in japan or what bcs they did a simultaneous western release #anyway this game came out on my birthday and it was made for ME. and there's a sequel on the way FOR ME
