kamiichi works bc kamijou is a house husband who's horrible at being a house husband because he's never consistently home, but that's okay bc accel is a married to the job workaholic who's also never consistently at home so it all balances out.

Soma's bushido summed up:
Tumblr media
#muse: date soma.#That's one of Soma's canon quotes from 15 years ago btw... it's an embedded belief by present day#Naotora in his speech patterns: (flexible) want to. should [do x bc he feels it's a good idea].#Soma in his speech patterns: (rigid) have to. can't [do x bc it isn't smth that's allowed].#Not to say he doesn't /want/ to see a better world. He does. but the more idealistic version of him died over a decade ago#He wouldn't be pushed to keep going by just thinking that he 'wants' to do something or 'wants' to see something happen#what is 'want' in a society that represses individuality and calls for everyone to live for their nation/clan rather than themselves#'must' and 'have to' are firmer concepts that he can hold on to. it means there are /important/ things at stake if he doesn't follow thru#Ask Naotora what he wants and he's going to list off a hundred things as easily as he breathes#Ask Soma what he wants and he's going to stare at you like you've grown a second head bc wdym what he /wants/#Naotora is what he wants to be first and foremost. Soma is what he needs to be first and foremost.#It's why I'm so :') at his interactions w/ Seiroku bc he doesn't /have/ to be anything around him and that's a VERY novel feeling#Soma w/ his people: I'm their captain -> I must never show them weaknesses. I have to be an unshakeable stronghold#Soma w/ the grand generals: We're friends but also rivals -> I have to remain on my guard about their propositions & not show any weakness#Tsubasa's kind of an exception but EVEN W/ HER... Soma doesn't /fully/ let his guard down; altho it's mainly out of force of habit#He does trust her; and he does a lot of things she wants him to bc he has a soft spot for her & knows she doesn't mean him harm#but at the end of the day... ALL of the grand generals are competing against each other#there are only so many resources they can use (esp in this arc) and their duty; which comes first; is to ensure their own band's survival#so despite trusting Tsubasa; at the back of his mind he's prepared for the eventuality of her choosing the Tokugawa over their friendship#He cherishes his childhood friends but man is there a LOT of baggage and a very specific detachedness in his interactions w/ them#That for the better or for the worse aren't there (at least rn) in his interactions w/ Seiroku which allows Soma to Be Himself

JOHNSHI Body Swap AU
The silly idea came from our discord group and my talented friend @daydreamwalker13 did the arts ❤️😭
One day in Wu Shi Academy, Johnny and Kenshi wake up in each others body. How or why they switched bodies is mystery to them, but it's Liu Kang's doing to get them to work together by putting them literally in each other's shoes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The first thing Johnny notices in Kenshi's body is a dull pain in his knee. Kenshi once got it injured in Yakuza, and it stuck with him since then.
JC: why the fuck does you left knee hurt so much?
KT: it's gonna rain.
JC: Now, why the fuck is your knee telling the weather??
On the other hand, Johnny's body periodically gets back pain. Kenshi must complain and let Johnny know that the spinning kicks he does is gonna fuck up his spinal disks in the future.
Johnny forces Kenshi to do skincare routines to his face.
And Kenshi forces Johnny to wear long sleeves.
Johnny makes a personal mission to smile as much as possible with Kenshi's face. Like all teeth out smiles. Raiden and Kung Lao got jumpscared when they first saw it.
Kenshi sticking to Johnny to make sure the actor wouldn't do anything sketchy to his body
The first time Johnny is going to the toilet in Kenshi's body: "My god! I guessed you would be big, but daammn, you packing, bro!"
Johnny totally shaves Kenshi's face because he doesn't like the scratchy feeling while Kenshi is just fuming.
Johnny takes silly selfies with Kenshi's face too. These all gonna be blackmailing materials in the future.
Tumblr media
KT: I'm gonna kill you
JC, : Oh, Mr.Takahashi please don't. You would be murdering your own body then you would be stuck in mine. What a nightmare it would be
Tumblr media
Kenshi speaking japanese with Johnny's voice. It is not clear who likes it more: Johnny, Kenshi or Tomas (oh Tomas is nagging Kenshi to do kenjutsu with Johnny's body bc he thinks Johnny looks so cool!!)
Johnny annoys the fuck out of Bi-han enough for him resort to getting physical but Bi-han gets momentarily confused who to punch. Because he wants to punch Johnny's nose, but punching Kenshi's body doesn't give him satisfaction, so he just punches both Kenshi and Johnny, making Johnny feel the pain as well as leaving some damage to his body.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Because of all the shits Johnny is pulling with Kenshi's body, Kenshi threatens to post ugly pics of Johnny on internet.
KT: Unlike you, i don't have fanbase to worry about.
JC: What do you mean?
KT: I'm sure the internet would love some ugly pictures of the famous actor Johnny Cage. Low angle shot of your double chin or a closeup of your nose hair, you choose.
JC: wait wait wait wait—
KT: It can be both.
JC: WAIT
Tumblr media
Johnny's body is fast, nible, and flexible as rubber band, but it is so uncoordinated for kenjutsu while Johnny keeps forgetting that Kenshi's body isn't as flexible as him.
Kenshi is heavier and stronger than Johnny so when Johnny went to do a chest bump with Kung Lao as they usually do, Kung Lao got tossed to the other room like a comet. Since then the shaolins started to steer clear out of Johnny's way.
Kenshi is kinda not well with hand to hand combat. He usually brutes force things, but since he's in Johnny's body, he no longer can do that. So Johnny totals him in sparrings. And somehow Kenshi thinks it's not such a bad idea, its kinda a turn-on.

Heeeey I loved your tattos HCs!
Do you have anything about what kind of HS/uni professor they'd be?
Hii! Omgg thank you 😭😭😭 this is really nice
I tried to write this with my limited knowlage of how American schools work (that i picked up from tv shows and cartoons). I'm from the Balkans and our schools are a bit different, so if there's anything inaccurate i apologise!! (Also this is based on highschool bc I'm in highschool)
Asra
• They would teach art
• One of the favourite teachers in the entire school
• None of the assignments they give are what the school board tehnically require, but they encourage creativity
• Also he has no care when it comes to grading so you can come to class with a roll of toilet paper and still get an A
• There is no learning in his class, it's more like an extended break
• I imagine they don't even show up half of the time
• It's a miracle they haven't been fired
• (The miracle is called Nadia)
Nadia
• As a teacher, i think she'd do history or geography
• But overall, she's definetly the principle
• If the school is short staffed, she can definitely multi-task
• As a teacher, she'd be very strict
• No talking, no whispering, no phones...really follows every rule
• And she's a little harsh on the grading too
• But it isn't hard to get a good grade if you listen to her lectures and take notes
• She's also very willing to help and really aims to teach
• If you ask, she'll find the time in her day to go over everything with you
Julian
• The obvious answer is chemistry and/or biology
• But i feel like his classes would be so much more
• He gets really immersed in teaching and he knows how to hold the students attention
• Half the time doesn't even notice the bell
• He's not a strict teacher by any means, but he does want everyone to learn
• When it comes to grading he's very flexible
• If he thinks you understand the subject, he'll give you a good grade even if it's not EXACTLY by the book
• Of course, he's open to helping students with his own subject but if you need help with other subjects, he's willing to help in that department too
• If you wanna get out of a class, just ask him about his day before he starts the lecture. He'll start rambling about random things until the class ends
Portia
• She would teach language and literature
• She's also very liked by the entire school
• Puts her whole soul into teaching
• Like there's no way you're coming out of her class uneducated
• She decorates her classroom and has a LOT of plants
• In fact, she probably takes care of most school plants
• And shows the janitors how to properly take care of them if she can't
• Teams up with Asra for most school projects and decorations
• Her classes are very calming but if she's really passionate about a certain subject, be prepared
• Will also ramble before class and talk to the students, but she's more focused then her brother
• Spends her breaks in the library or with the lunch ladies
• Also the type of teacher to bring snacks every day into the teachers lounge
• Honestly, everyone likes her
Muriel
• I'll be honest, I've been wracking my brain about this for so long but i cannot for the life of me see him as a teacher
• In pre school, maybe
• But with high-schoolers? No...
• I do see him as a janitor, however
• He'd be perfect for the job
• The kids wouldn't want to mess with him because he seems mean and scary
• (And because Asra can also be mean and scary)
• He's very fast and only focuses on doing his work as fast as he can
• He's tall, he's strong...you get my point
• He would definitely bring Asra lunch every break and they would sit and chat in his classroom or the Janitors closet (they don't mind the small space)
• Eventually, Asra introduces him to other teachers and they all become friends and welcome him into the teachers lounge
Lucio
• He's a PE teacher
• If you're in his class all i have to say is....good luck
• Most students skip his class
• EVERY class
• He will work you TO THE BONE
• He doesn't understand that high-schoolers can't compare to his professionally trained self and expects everyone to meet him at his level
• For a PASSING grade
• If you want a GOOD grade you'll have to impress him
• And before you think he should've been fired, that isn't possible
• HE'S FUNDING THE SCHOOL
• Nadia is aware of his..."teachings" but she can't do much about it
• With him gone, half the school goes too!
• Eventually everyone tells him to calm down and he does
• (But he's really passive agressive about it)
• The students forgive him cause he's hot
As always, if anyone wants to add on, please feel free!

sports coach toji ://///
basketball
he's the chill coach; honestly worrisome how chill he is even at crucial times when they're trying to beat the quarter clocks. he's so composed even when the gap is widening (regardless if in favor of toji's team or not) that it's insulting to the other team's coach, as if he's belittling the game itself. like it's a practice game.
sports parents, esp. moms ..... i'm sure you know how they regard toji. single coach who spent a good sum of his money during his divorce court trial. anyway. they love him istg they watch the games both for their kids AND their coach
you're his favorite sports parents lmfaoooo
however, he's NOT chill during practices, especially after losing. now, toji's teams have far more winning streaks than losing, so he's usually stricter at the peak of the streaks or right after one loss. he's got that chill look with a sinisterly strict aura underneath.
"you're not yet good if you can't beat me" ⎯ is way too good it takes several practices for his team to catch up. well, good for him ⎯ two students from the male team, geto and gojo, were able to block his attempt for a two-point shot. AND NO NEPOTISM OK but maki's that grade school team point guard who's able to replicate his signature half-court shot. he got her a pair of basketball shoes for that.
megumi way too good for grade schooler but he also credits his vigor to practice on itadori yuuji.
toji too good there are offers being sent to him with higher pay and larger connections (which do attract him) but he said he'll stay because his son likes his school which is in the basic education of geto and gojo's university
toji likes the way you scream when you cheer and imagines if you'd sound just as loud when he (TOOT) you ;))
football
it's obvious hot under the sun on the field so yes he does take off his coach unform and practices with them with only either a muscle tee or a tank top (yes, i refuse to call it wife-beater). sometimes he forgets to take off his chain necklace even tho it's itchy bc god this man gets lazy at the weirdest times possible
oooooo everyone just loves rerouting to pass by the field (same) and then they'd take pictures so at some point college football got too famous bc of the hot coach
so toji's usually more of a verbal socratic coach. during cooldowns or breaks or warmups he makes sure that his players know how to think for themselves so that even if they're in the zone (which renders them on autopilot and when they're disturbed they lose focus abruptly). he has a way of making them calm down when they know what to do. the same method even helped them with their academics holy shit!
he's lazy when demonstrating but when he does omfg pls kick my face idk. important notes to consider are his agility and flexibility; strong physique in general; and quick thinking. even if he slows down to show them, he's still quick.
he does get frustrated bc we all get crankier when it's hot. he doesn't lash out on his players, he almost never did before, but he does lash out at home when megumi's not around lmfao.
and then one time your kid told you to watch his practice (for this your kid is assigned male at birth), so you did, and then you see his coach and all of a sudden your cute kid always sees you at the bleachers side, front row. parent perks.
the japan national team wants him to be the coach but he's like ..... maybe next time when my son joins your team
omfg if you do get together imagine the way he's flexible and he never gets to drain his stamina because it's overwhelming. i feel bad for you. it will be a tough time. i wouldn't just say in bed, but hehe. he'd fuck you anywhere as long as you say yes.
volleyball
ah yes, toji trained the best spiker-setter duo (that's the coach ukai in him) so now he's graduated two top players in the national team who will, sadly, go to separate teams after an intimacy problem which toji tries to be out of (who knows if the conflict was their breakup after college but ended up as teammates lmfao)
can we talk about how insane his spikes would be strong ones, insulting feints, and ooooo the cross court spike 😍😍 and his wrists!! the trajectory changes caused by his littlest techniques!
Thighs.
you take care of yuuji on behalf of his parents so now you're always seeing him and his very very very special friend and yuuji's equally ecstatic sister ⎯ megumi and nobara respectively. who knew megumi had such a hot father like???
toji being a volleyball player/coach makes a lot of sense ykwim he's got that service ace that no one has ever beaten until toji suddenly retired from playing and started coaching instead
home gym 😍
he's got that vacuum-sealed looking shirt every time he's coaching or at the games specifically. i think they put him on screen often for publicity honestly.
they ask him, "you're one of the best coaches of this generation, and the best graduating players were under your wing. what inspires you to keep being so great at your teaching?" and then he looks at the camera, and grins. "there's someone who watches during practice that divides my attention. i know they're watching right now." and then he winks
said person will not be able to walk the day after the winning games.

Hi Mera, I've read your rules, and it said that you also write for a Male reader, which made me a little bit happy bc it's hard to find good Twst x Male reader content! and I know that most of your followers are female, but I wanted to say that I really like your writing! even if I'm in the minority 👉👈
I especially like your SK Jade! ♡
So I was wondering how different the story might be if Sk Jade's Darling was a Male?? obviously, Male!Darling can't fake being pregnant, so I guess the Surving chances for Male Darling might be lower than Female Darling??
(Even though the thought of Male Darling pretending to be pregnant sounds hilarious! )
unless maybe Male Darling already has a child from a previous relationship? (maybe even with Azul??) Would that make Sk Jade Reconsider? can't have a child growing up without their father!
Anyway, uh, have Nice Day 👉👈
Hi hi!!! I do indeed write for male readers. (And thank you for reading my rules!! :D) I actually have a few requests for a male reader for the Lunar Love Hotel, so I'm eager to get to those! I hope to provide stories that can be enjoyed by many people, so I'm happy you can like my work! Thank you for liking it! :D
As for sk!Jade with a male darling!!! The chances of survival may be low, but even so you're determined to survive like anyone else in that sort of horrific situation. I like to think that with Jade gender doesn't matter. The concept of gender is so uniquely flexible in the ocean, so in his eyes everyone is all the same (everyone is a meal). But convincing him may be a little difficult because you can't use the excuse of being pregnant. Perhaps, rather than a connection to Azul, your chances of survival may increase wonderfully if you have a deep connection with Floyd.
Jade would do a lot of things for his brother. After all, he cares for Floyd and his family always stick together. So your nine months will look different from a female!darling's. Whereas a female!darling is seeing a pregnancy through to the end, a male!darling will likely have to spend those nine months convincing Jade not to kill him and to spare him for Floyd's sake. I like to think Jade gives you nine months not only so you can try to convince him with solid reasoning but also to see how long Floyd's interest in you will last before it begins to wane. So not only are you relying on your persuasion skills (and entertainment skills because if Jade's keeping you alive he's going to want some form of daily amusement; it wouldn't be very fun if you always showed him the same frightened expression. That's just so boring. :/), you have to hope Floyd doesn't tire of you because when he no longer cares for you it allows Jade to make you his meal.
If anything, Jade just doesn't want to break his brother's heart. If Floyd really does like you, it would hurt him if Jade took you away. So he'll let you live for nine months and he'll see if anything changes between you and Floyd in that time. After all, he can only make up so many excuses for where you've disappeared to before Floyd either drops the subject and loses interest entirely or persists in hopes of digging the truth out of him.

while I'm busy being all over the place and making everything abt my blorbos.....
solas and merrill could have a FASCINATING dynamic tbph. they'd have to get past his anti-dalish spiel first ofc but maybe esp with a lavellan he's close to and learning to respect the dalish more thru them, then meeting merrill (maybe as the ACTUAL eluvian expert sorry morrigan ily but c'mon now...) they could just be So Interesting
bc right at the start to a mage inky solas is like yeah I'd teach you blood magic if I knew it there's nothing inherently bad about it as long as you're careful
and I think he's pretty good at reading people and seeing beyond the superficial. as is merrill. and I think she'd be interested in his stories from the fade.
and she talks about the dread wolf. about his legend. but I think even post reveal she'd be like... she wouldn't just hate him, she'd recognize that there was a real person under all the stories. her joining varric to look for him!
idk. just... them. they could be so interesting together. together HOWEVER y'all know I'm flexible with shipping but I can also see them just becoming close friends and practicing magic together. maybe he'd teach her how to paint. he'd surely want to know how she managed to restore the eluvian. they could have deep conversations about the nature of magic without worrying about propriety.
that said.
I KNOW she could also make him scream 💖 merrill can top and she can top WELL is all im saying here.

in your opinion, which op characters are most likely to have a more open relationship? bc i keep thinking abt an open relationship with shanks, like he’d have fun listening to you talk about the different people you’ve fucked, and what he’s been up to. (also i kept thinking about how much of an issue kid has with shanks, and trying to brag about how he fucked shanks’ s.o, but shanks just talking about it like ‘oh yeah they told me, they had fun with you’)
In my opinion hmm..
Freedom is a big thing in the One Piece world, and I can actually see an open relationship or a polycule of some variety being a decent norm.
I think the Celestial Dragons would be excessively strict about marriage and family units (yes I am staring at the camera when I say this), and the nobility as well, but more likely commoners and pirates would have a widely different view. (Marines would be a mixed bag, but I think the statistics would lean more toward monogamy for them. And I'm not saying monogamy is *bad*, but I do think there's a kind of "being used as a tool for control/propriety" certainly exists)
Ahem, anyway!
I can see, off the top of my head, Shanks, Kid, Killer, Heat, Wire, Penguin, Shachi, Zoro, Law, Marco, Ace, Izou, Thatch, Rayleigh (canonically, actually), Roger, Buggy, Mihawk, Crocodile, and possibly even *maybe* Doflamingo being in some variety of open or group relationship.
Crocodile and Doffy get pretty possessive, imo, but I can see there being a situation with a set group where they'd be into it. Neither would be okay with hearing about things after the fact, or not being a part of things in some way shape or form.
Shanks would 100% be okay with hearing about your exploits, and sharing his in return. Marco would be okay hearing about your exploits too, but I feel like he'd have less to share in return. Ace would be somewhere in between the two I think, in terms of hearing about and talking about exploits.
And I mean, Rayleigh is canonically in an open relationship, so >.>
I can see Kid bragging about a lot of things, but considering how I see him and the entire Kid crew, I don't think there'd be any malice in those regards. Kid's contest with Shanks and the Red Hair Pirates is more about being pirates than being good in the sack. (Also I don't think Kid has a singular drop of doubt about how good he is in the sack XD )
Most everyone else I see as more being in a poly situation and not so much an open one. A distinction being that partners and escapades are discussed prior to having them happen. So the conversation would be before and after - at least at the start of things, once things stabilize in the relationship it works a little different.
But yeah, with freedom and being true to oneself as part of very important themes for the show, I wouldn't be surprised to see poly and open relationships more a normal thing among pirates and such than not.
Luffy, I think, would be into open relationships, but I also don't know how much I think Luffy would be bothered to define any relationship outside of certain parameters. He wants you to be happy, whatever shape that would take, while also being happy himself, and I feel like he's the kind of guy who feels wholly responsible for his own happiness, which makes him very flexible for fitting into whatever shape your happiness needs.
But that's just a random off the top of my head thought that popped in at the end of this, so xD take it for whatever.

rank the boys from best to worst boyfriend!!
LOL THIS IS FUNNY
disclaimer this is a joke and in no way reflective of the boys actual personalities and boyfriend abilities or a diss in anyway this is just me and my head ok
BEST
Taehyung would probably the best boyfriend just bc he's so romantic and lovesick lol I feel like he'd never forget a birthday or an anniversary and he'd want to meet your parents and take care of you and he'd be so good at planning dates. He'd wake you up with coffee in bed and try to make you breakfast but burn it and all of that cheesy, adorable shit.
Hoseok would probably be next because he's just so incredibly sweet and nice and attentive. He'd never leave messes around the house for you to clean up and would buy you cute little matching outfits to stroll around town in. I think he'd listen to you when you need to rant and actually give you rly valid advice. I also think he'd be that boyfriend who takes care of your friends the way he takes care of you like girls night is always at your house and he's down for the gossip sesh
Jimin is next. he'd be higher but honestly he would prioritize work sometimes I think like if he needed to stay at the studio late to perfect something he would and while he'd shoot you a text to let you know, I think it would be important to him that his partner knows his career is a priority and to be flexible about it. But I do think he'd be so attentive and so loving and just so incredibly sweet as a boyfriend! I think he'd never make you ask for attention or more love bc he just is love in a human form.
Yoongi would be a pretty good boyfriend but I also think he's not like a big anniversary, huge display of affection, type of guy. I think he'd be so attentive and loving but in a rly quiet, humble way. I also think while he's around you all the time, he wouldn't be the biggest date planner. Like he's not gonna organize a string quartet and rent a helicopter for a random saturday night BUT he will get takeout from your favorite place and watch pride and prejudice with you and then give you a back massage
Jin is next! He would be a great boyfriend! He would be baby tho. You'd have to remind him about events he already said yes to going to and set out exactly what he should wear or else he's going in matching sweats lol I think he'd be willing to meet your parents and your friends but he would whine and be dramatic about it bc he gets nervous and why can't you guys just stay home? please? please? PLEAAASE? No? Fine. But you're letting me stay up all night playing video games to make up for it.
Jungkook is next....I really sat here debating whether or not he'd be last or second to last lol. ITS NOT THAT HED BE A BAD BOYFRIEND! ITS JUST--- boy zones out, ok? he zones out a lot. He also is extremely independent. He'd forget to call you if he gets sucked into something he's doing. He prioritizes his job and takes things very seriously and I don't see him wanting to take chances when it comes to his career, understandably so. I feel like he'd be so fun to go on dates tho and you guys text all the time and send funny tiktoks back and forth and are best friends
Namjoon. I'm sorry. He's a good boyfriend but he's endearingly not a good boyfriend at the same time. He tries really hard and to be honest who cares about the details when you're dating Joon bc you love him so much but yeah he probably forgets anniversaries and has no idea what birthday gift to get you so he asks the sales attendants for help but when he describes you he says you "always smells really nice, like really warm and comforting but also clean and fresh like a flower. They like to dress up sometimes but sometimes they're just in a t-shirt and shorts and that looks super good too-"
NOT SO BEST

what do you think would their types be? like, what would they look in an s/o, what the wouldn't like, etc? be honest as possible bc i have this thing were i fall in love with a character then i go "wait they wouldn't like _____ and i'm so _____ oh wow even a fictional person wouldn't like me" destroy my feelings lmao
well, first of all i hope you find peace with yourself.
when you find peace with yourself honestly, this kind of situation rarely happen.
obviously we all feel bad once in a while and i understand + hear what you're saying right here.
In my writings i try to be inclusive whilst not giving too much information about the reader.
not in my house i'm telling you all.
i hope whoever is reading my stuff gets the comfort, love, attention they deserve. i started this blog because i couldn't find what i wanted.
i bring it now, and i don't want my few readers to feel bad about themselves for whatever reason.
sending everyone hearts because you deserve it.
i used to think the same because of my nationality, completely destructive. so i kinda understand where you're coming from with your ask.
real life or fictional, if someone doesn't understand or like you, don't blame yourself, it's their own problem. being someone's problem has nothing to do with how you are or look.
lets start :)
Tumblr media
uk brothers II headcannons II what they would/wouldn't look in for a s/o
Wales
someone embittered
he would struggle quite a lot with that,
would try to help if he ever ends up with someone like this
you cannot change people but you can learn from them
he wants comfort in someone
he would tend to go towards people who share and treasure their loved ones
dylan reflects a lot what he recieves probably why that last point is important
he wants the best for his s/o so he deserves the best s/o too
Ireland
condescending people
no-no for him
he is the kind to fold himself so he is flexible to situations
people who mistake that "folding" from him tend to be condescending
he likes a lot people who are smart,
not smart like good grades- he doesn't care about that tbh
he wants someone he can have long talks with, debates and learn things
teach him something about your favorite subject and you won
England
malignant narcissist, mixed with grandiosity
really big struggle for arthur, malignant narcissists are helpless to him
you cannot change them and that's the worse
he would lean towards someone decisive, someone who knows what they want
by this, i mean personality wise. if you don't know how to dress today it doesn't matter.
be clear about your tastes, what you want in life.
and if not, it's absolutely fine, you'll grow this kind of confidence with him
Scotland
insolent people
respect yourself and others with him
passing remarks as insults will get you nowhere (i am not lying)
but, he tends to like people with witty comebacks, high verbal ability or skills
why ? he likes to discuss or joke with his s/o
while still being respectful, insolent people are different
high verbal abilities such as witty comebacks means you can listen to people correctly and also pay attention to your feelings
brings the best characteristics of someone in his opinion
N.ireland
men and women who show themselves as "pick me" people
any symbolic elimination act doesn't go well with him
shutting down, putting down someone for attention is violence
he leans towards people who are attentionate.
by this i mean, someone who will cherish their loved ones, each at a time
someone who makes time for their loved ones separately and makes them feel unique
someone who sees relationships and friendships as a meticulous works of art

001 lawlight & meronia so original i know
ghsdgsgshdhgs you are still the only one to ask it so >:) this is going to get sincerely insanely long so i'm actually just gonna put both under a cut <3
character / ship ask game
MERONIA
when I started shipping it if I did: this is tricky bc i feel it laid dormant in me for a long time (basically since seeing that ai love love fanart of near asleep on mello in probably 2008) and there is evidence in my old AO3 history of me having read fic for them as far back as 2014 (???!!!) but i wouldn't say i sincerely shipped them until my late sept 2022 rewatch of DN which. when the photo exchange scene happened i turned to my brother and said “they're in love.” the rest is history ig 🫣 
my thoughts: MANY!!! ship of all time for me ngl 
What makes me happy about them: i really really enjoy the potential for immense tenderness with one another in the wake of lifelong one-sided resentment & competition. also their mutual obsession and horrific PDA charms me. 
What makes me sad about them: oughggghgghg. canon. & mello's inferiority complex / insane abandonment issues but like at the same time those are fun to write about so.
things done in fanfic that annoys me: to be honest i haven't really been reading meronia fic much over the last year except in cases where i know the author. this is just because of like. basic things like constraints on my time. and also bc overall there honestly aren't That many fics that get posted where i Don't know the author (<- chatty to a fault) off the top of my head, things i have seen At Some Point in fanfic that i don't care for:
1) near being infantilized,
2) near being a total pushover,
3) mello being an overly-aggressive asshole / being cruel for the sake of cruelty (this sort of dynamic just doesn't appeal to me for any ship, it's not my thing, but i particularly don't care for it in meronia)
4) near being overtly mean to mello (he is honestly STUNNINGLY kind to mello considering the circumstances in the photo exchange scene).
honestly a skilled author could probably pull off 3 or 4 with a deft and nuanced hand but it still wouldn't be my cup of tea. OH! one more.
5) i don't personally find it interesting or compelling if mello is in a straightforward position of substantial power over near / if everything just goes mello's way. it's too dissimilar to canon for the dynamic to resonate with me personally and gets rid of mello's underdog status entirely, which is kind of his whole thing. 
things I look for in fanfic: this one is tough because i do just mostly read stuff by people i know and by like. smallestbird. hgdhgshdghs if i was going to look for fanfic though, i think i would look for: nuanced dynamic, "no archive warnings apply" (just my personal tastes for meronia & my inability to do angst), and an interesting premise / summary (this is so so vague sorry but summary is the top determining factor in whether i click on something or not). 
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: NO ONE! sorry. matt in an OT3 tho <3 
My happily ever after for them: either working together as L, near working as L while mello is his sexy unemployed boyfriend, or something entirely unrelated to being L (ideal but harder to imagine). i tend to imagine them staying in new york city, probably traveling for cases occasionally, and being attached at the hip 24/7 
who is the big spoon/little spoon: near is the little spoon mostly but imo this is flexible  
what is their favorite non-sexual activity: tbh i think they would both like museums a lot!! reading also (& probably discussing whatever it is they're reading). i think they also just spend a lot of time talking about a wide variety of subjects (because i'm me this includes math)
LAWLIGHT
when I started shipping it if I did: maaaaarch of last year? i think? hgsdghsdh i'm sure i could do some exactish calculations based on when i started commenting on your & kyo's fics but that feels right to me 
my thoughts: none! honestly i have zero original thoughts abt them i just enjoy my mutuals takes 
What makes me happy about them: when. something good happens in a mutuals fic of them, 
What makes me sad about them: when something. bad happens in a mutual's fic of them, [also canon obvi] 
things done in fanfic that annoys me: impossible to answer as my reading for them is limited to beautiful geniuses but i will say i don't find ultra-mean characterizations especially compelling for any ship or character 
things I look for in fanfic: my mutuals names as the author 
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: i vibe with mattlight, sometimes matsulight (this is another "i'll read it if i like the author's other stuff" kinda deal), lawmane, and beyondlaw <3 
My happily ever after for them: honestly i'm charmed by a pretty basic domestic setup for them ngl sorry. i am fundamentally  a boring person and have never claimed to be anything else 
who is the big spoon/little spoon: in my mind this is split 50/50 actually 
what is their favorite non-sexual activity: i feel they would both enjoy any sort of competition but esp board games [settlers of catan persnaps??? or clue lmao] and mario kart. also perhaps wii tennis or bowling.

Random. Venting I did to a friend yesterday.
TW for abuse/neglect? And a very brief mention of suicide.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I cut out what my friend said to me just bc. Feels weird to post someone else's words here. It did really help that he told me that what my parents did was awful. And that it's not something they should be proud of. I don't know. I just feel far too normal for someone who's been through a lot. But normal is also what I need to be to survive.
I'd experience really really terrible things but then literally the next day I'd be. Fine again. I wouldn't remember it and it certainly wouldn't be on my mind. I was never really someone who like. Was traumatized in the classic way. Because I'd have to go to work the next day. I couldn't not, or I wouldn't be able to eat. Between the choice of affording food and staying home to cry about something that happened, I would always choose to afford food. Even now, lately I've been having crying breakdowns in the work bathroom multiple times a week and like. After I'm done I just wash my face and go back to work. My job is very understanding and flexible, I'm 100% sure I *could* go home if I wanted to. Other people have cried at work (not usually about work things, because working here is p great) and been comforted by coworkers, taken a break in the break room, gone home, etc. But what would I do if I went home? I feel fine afterwards. I'm not going to just sit at home stewing in my feelings. And if coworkers see me crying they might send me home for my own good or be concerned about me and I certainly can't have that.

Hi hello! I would love to hear about your Black Clover soup theory, so please don't worry about highjacking the post ❤️
Hiya~! ^^
So, there's no actual theory, but the thing is that people have debated about what, exactly, is mana, and ki, in BC. And I think that the concept of a soul will probably end up being the third thing, the exact definition/description of which is going to be a topic of debate, so I'm just going to ramble a bit.
So, firstly, while reading any piece of work, let it be a traditional book, a manga, or even while watching a series, a very clever way for a writer to introduce concepts, without being able to define them word to word, is to have the characters talk about these topics. Because the characters can lie, they can have misunderstandings, or their perception of something can just differ from the perception of another person. Meaning that if in BC the information concerning the concept of a soul, for example, comes from Lucius, there is a high chance of it being a very narrow, biased, or misleading way of depicting it. Because of course Lucius wants the thing he's saying, to sound the absolute most favourable for him. He wants his opponents to despair. He wants them to go "how on earth are we going to fight that power?" Some things of what he's saying need to be true of course, because otherwise his statement wouldn't be credible, but it doesn't mean that what he's saying would be 'the whole truth and nothing but the truth'.
Now, in the very beginning of the anime, at least, we are told by the narrator that "in this world magic is everything", which has been interpreted by a portion of the fandom as mana = life, but I don't think that mana (or magic) is exactly life. They're closely related, but you can be alive without having a lot of mana. Because... by all logic, wouldn't the peasants (or those with very low mana) then be sickly and prone to dying all throughout their lives? What I think is meant by this statement that mana in BC is kinda like money. Money can get you opportunities, it means (usually) a higher place in society, and it can by your services/medicine/care that can prolong your life. Essentially, money, and mana, are tools. Though mana has a closer connection to life than money, because they're both non-tangible concepts, and we know that a person's grimoire disintegrates when they die, meaning that once a person dies, mana leaves their bodies etc. (Which is why, I think, why Nacht can't move into the shadow of a dead person.)
Ki is something that is... an expression of life? I suppose. I have no clear picture of what ki actually is, but it's, as far as I've understood it, kinda the life force of a person being reflected out. Even plants can have ki. So, it's ... their presence, in a sense, but it is connected to the idea of life. But. As said it's separate from mana. Meaning that mana and life, are connected. Ki and life are connected. But ki and mana are not.
However, I do think that the concept of a soul is also tied with life and mana. Again, you don't need to have life and mana in order to have a soul, but I do think that all these 3 concepts (assuming you have all 3) are connected. Because a person's magical affinity usually matches in a way their personality. There is something in their personality which is expressed by their magic attribute. Again, it's not their whole personality, but there is an aspect of them that is well depicted by their attribute. (What part of their personality it depicts is an entirely different discussion, and for the side characters I don't think Tabs gave necessarily that much thought. Not with all, at least.)
So, where am I going with this?
What is a soul? It's connected with life. It's connected with mana. But can you shape your own soul? As you pointed out, Charlotte has managed to shape it in a way that allowed her to utilize both her cursed blue roses, and her original red ones. This would imply that souls are flexible too. Which, if you think about it, does make sense. People (or humanoids as BC has elves and dwarves and so on too) change during the course of their lives. They can change into different versions of themselves as they age, and since BC is greatly about self-improvement and growth, I think this fits nicely in there. Nothing is set in stone.
"You make your own fate" as said by Yami.
What does this make of Lucius' magic though? He can alter souls. But what if people can change their own souls as a response? It would make him rather powerless at the end of the day, would it not? "Oh you changed it, I'll just change it right back." Perhaps you'd need a catalyst, like a strong emotional connection in Sister Lily's case, but it can be done. Because ultimately your soul is your own. It's fluid, it's flexible. Someone can change it but ultimately it's you who are the master of it. It's either about succumbing to your fate, or making your own fate. Essentially.
Of course I'm not saying that making a change, or "changing your soul" would be easy. Because growth is usually a long road, filled with stones and thistles, so Lucius would have an advantage on speed in that sense. But also the people are not powerless against him.
I don't really know. This is just my two cents about mana, life, soul and ki.
Thanks for dropping by though~ ^^

My new fixation is bad poetry
and its making me think about how to define art and poetry and what makes poetry good etc but I can't go back and find my sophomore english teacher and rant about it so I'm making it yalls problem. but mr c if ur in here pls read also what do you mean thats one way to skin a hamster. thats not how it goes what are you talking abou
first of all, ive finally figured out my current definition of art: records of the human experience or just experience in general. so yes paintings and poetry but ALSO tiktoks or a decorated room. idc if you think its stupid there are remnants and references to human experiences ALL OVER those. so basically if it left a mark at any point, its art. maybe not always "good" or skilled, deep, etc but it is art (to me)
secondly, what is poetry? the same sophomore english teacher asked this at the beginning of a unit and the class was struggling. every time we listed a requirement for poetry he went "is that necessary though?". "it has to rhyme" "does it?" "it has to be deep" "does it" "it needs to have words!" ".....does it?" man idk i was 15 and sleep deprived
but now im less sleep deprived and i have an answer. I would consider poetry a spectrum (but not necessarily flexible. i wouldn't say you have to bend it's meaning to make something fit) but also playing with language, to be playful with it and have fun with it, to use it as a toy in a way. using language in a way different from its intended use. so writing a personal narrative about a deep topic? not poetry. maybe you had fun with it but thats still its main use. to make words rhyme, to alliterate, to use words just plain wrong? probably poetry. its still a spectrum. and im aware this means that saying something like "yew nork/glass fork" would count as a shitpost and poetry while "Ill love you and ill never stop loving you" doesnt and um i dont care i said what i said--
this would also mean most books and speeches would have little bits of poetry in there and i stand by that too. maybe the entire thing isnt poetry but bits of it could count. i came to this conclusion on the meaning of poetry because i saw too many "aesthetic" free verse poems that were just. tweets. you coulda just made it a sentence and posted it for free. there was no attempt to play with language. you just used it the way you were supposed to. its just a quote.
im definitely going to add more onto this about what i think poetry critics miss sometimes and why formal teaching of poetry is flawed but not all in one post bc its a lot. However i have one last concept to attempt to define. this one has always made me the angriest
GOOD VS BAD POETRY/ART
where do i even start. maybe we should just get rid of these terms completely and make people say what they mean. is it good or did he just use literary devices correctly. is it good or is it genuine. is it good or is it deep. is it good or is it entertaining. is it good or do you like it. is it good or is it popular. is it good or is it complex. is it good or is it creative.
ive been saying since i was i was maybe 12-13 that even though good does not have a solid stable meaning, there is still a sense of what good is. We know what its supposed to be. classical music, Edgar Allen Poe, Da Vinci are good. sure most people barely know or understand or care about these things other than one piece of work they can recall because they had to look at it in highschool that time and the teacher seemed to appreciate it. and we know that reality tv, messily hand drawn animals, and half assed near unintelligible tiktok skits are bad.
but....wait we like those though
ive come to the conclusion that while still shifting, "good"'s meaning in scholarly settings tends to come down to whatever those somethingth century european dudes and what the modern smart looking guys deemed intelligent. and in colloquial settings, what everyone likes.
many pretentious types will say rap is bad and the subject matter is crude and the same way im sure some old european guy would have said or has said traditional african music is too weird and primitive to be respectable.
now. i dont really listen to rap intentionally. if its in there its in there. I used to be pretentious and after changing i just never got too deep into it BUT. i listened to a Nicki Minaj song one time just to see and yeah it was not family friendly but dear god was it clever. the way she'd drop the most genius alliteration-personification-allegory-englishvocabword and then just keep it moving like im not gonna have to stop and ponder the seven layer reference to bedtime hanky panky. its smart. its creative. its complex. and so many rappers can write about the same topics over and over and still come back with a new way of phrasing it. its genuinely impressive
but so many still wouldn't consider it good.
the term good when it comes to art, while having somewhat of a meaning is still useless. make your own personal standards for what is important for you to see in art. its kind of silly for us to collectively decide "okay this art? we like it. this is good" and then go to a different community (age group, culture, race) and go "were going to show you the new gold standard for good! its what we liked! you dont do it like this?? then yours is bad!". historically thats never been a good move
what i find important with poetry (and by poetry i mostly mean song writing bc i dont even read poetry like that) tends to be "is it a poem? or a sentence/paragraph". everything other than that just has to do with my taste and what I prefer in the moment. and it goes the same for everyone else. there's no universal good or bad with art. its just what a dominant or culturally respected group of people said was important.
limericks are bad tho jesus told me/j
TL;DR: i think anything that records an experience is art. i think toying with language mostly makes it poetry, and i think its weird people create little boxes for good and bad and make everyone else adhere to it
