#hi yes i'm still alive

[hopeswriting]

[ID copied from alt text: A panel from the manga Katekyo Hitman Reborn, showing Reborn.

He says to Tsuna, "As expected, you… haven't changed compared to when I first came," looking disapproving, if not disappointed too. /End ID]

i was looking for this line again for reasons, and the way i remembered it, reborn was saying it as a compliment. but he's clearly not here, and it's so interesting he isn't?

for context he says this after tsuna says yet again that he won't become vongola decimo, and it's like. well i won't go deep into this, but from reborn's pov, who was sent to him to train him to become vongola decimo, that he can't see any improvement on that matter despite all they went through and everything that happened, is, of course, a failure on both their parts (which is also interesting in and of itself).

but from tsuna's pov, that he hasn't become any closer to look the part of vongola decimo, to look the part of a mafia don, is, of course, something to be celebrated and for him to pride himself on. especially because of all they went through and everything that happened, during which they were plenty of room to change tsuna into vongola decimo.

idk, just. something something, reborn wants the exact opposite thing tsuna wants, was sent to tsuna with the express purpose of making him change his mind because they knew (or like, were smart enough to assume it anyway) it was the last thing tsuna wanted, and yet they've always been a team all the same, haven't they? have always been on the same side, have always been standing right by the other's side.

and yet their bond is still the closest and strongest in the manga all the same, isn't it?

update: okay never mind, it's THIS line i was actually thinking about, so post cancelled lol

[ID copied from alt text: Other panels from the manga.

Reborn's still speaking to Tsuna, smiling as he says, "Hey, I said that you've barely changed... since I first came, right? (The word "barely" is in bold and italicized.) And that... is an awesome thing, Tsuna." /End ID]

the coffee shop writing magic is real my friends i haven't written on personal stuff in weeks, and i just sat and banged out nearly 2k in an hour and a half at the starbucks in my local Barnes and Noble. Might turn this into a weekly thing, it was nice to just sit here and write and nurse a hot chocolate.

1. Dog day…why did you say when you saw your husbands picture “ he’s alive????” Did you think he was dead.

"The passage of time is worthless when you there's nothing you can count on, except pain. So I always assumed my past life, and everything in it, was already gone. Hope is a very fickle thing, down here."

(Based on this song)

#bnha #bnha manga spoilers #mha spoilers #mha 423 #I didn't hate this chapter before that #but now I am #because this is just cruel level of REMEMBER THIS????? #yes. I do remember this. I rewatched and reread this arc VERY recently #so... he killed Kurogiri with a punch like the one he did in USJ and again to save Izuku #I don't care honestly. #I reread this chapter and I cried again bc I REALLY refused to believe that Kurogiri died then #but he did with a death words to Shirakumo's friends and recall of old chapters #even if people want Tenko alive I doubt that Kurogiri will ever materialize again #and I'm deadly serious when I say that this is the worst part of this chapter #I worried for Kurogiri's existence ever since it was revealed that Shirakumo is in there #but that literally took FIVE YEARS TO APPEAR AGAIN HAVING AN IMPORTANT ROLE #and he left while crumbling just like Tomura's body before Katsuki hit him #and the last thing he thought about was about protecting Tomura even though he was partly Shirakumo's dead corpse appearing more and more #even Mic now understood that it's really is him in a way ending his arc from back in Tartarus with Aizawa #and you know what's worse??? TOMURA KNOWS THIS #the way he used “...........” with Kurogiri's name while the page literally showed his black smoke disappearing was heartbreaking before #it's worse now #like... okay he's dying too and he doesn't even know if spinner is ALIVE or not and he saw Kurogiri disappear #all while protecting him from harm one last time #AND WE STILL HAVE NO FUCKING FLASHBACKS OF HIS TIME WITH TOMURA OUTSIDE OF WHAT WE HAD IN MANGA #I'm getting more and more furious by the minute HAHA #I need to find that one sketch I did way back in 2019 with them after spoilers of Kurogiri in Tartarus #I NEED SOMETHING LIKE THAT NOW AND I CAN'T DRAW #I want to just curl up and cry myself to sleep like a 13 y.o that found out the bird that she looked after died while she was sleeping #kurogiri

Expectation: waking up early so I can run all my errands and quickly come back home, watch the finale, and talk about it for the rest of the day

Reality: no will to live till 2PM

#yes I'm still in bed but hey I already watched an alternative version of the finale in my dreams?? #Porsche had a twin with long hair (deceased) #he told Zouey to take care of his brother but somehow Porsche ended up as Jason's sugar baby #he's probably not very happy about that... #oh and Nant was there. he's totally still alive guys don't worry about it. #alright I'm getting up now

I was thinking about how hug-y opla luffy is and I realised that if you strictly consider instances in which he meant to hug someone and not just hold them (so take out every single time he's picked up someone and either lugged them around or flung them across a battlefield) in the manga he hasn't actually hugged that many people at all, has he

#off the top of my head i can remember #chopper right after the second round of the davy back fight #chopper flings himself at him and luffy goes through the whole talk with foxy after while hugging him #it's SUPER cute and also I'm pretty sure the first time luffy hugs anyone in the manga after shanks loses an arm for him #ace. we all know when. #sabo! when he finds out he's still alive!!!! #and zoro when they meet back up in wano #not to zolu but that's the only hug luffy starts himsef that doesn't involve copious amounts of tears #he's just extremely happy to see zoro !!!!!! can't blame him I'd be as well #these are genuinely the only times i can remember him hugging someone in the whole 106 volumes of manga? #though i had forgotten about the chopper one until i reread that arc so maybe there's more I'm forgetting #ah allow me to zolu again but isn't that amazing that oda obviously doesn't think about hugs as something luffy would do casually #but still drew luffy fling himself at zoro on sight after a few weeks of separation #ah #AHHH #anyway yes very interesting #you'd assume with that personality luffy would be hugging people more often and yet #that said a lot of people hug luffy while luffy just lets them hang off him and goes about his way #so he IS pretty casual about hugs #he just doesn't start them or partake in them a lot #i had never realized honestly #very very inchresting #coming back to this a trillion years later to add that he hugs von chan in impel down!!!! #extremely important so let's jot that down

Song of the Day: March 27

"Long Time Gone" by The Chicks

#song of the day #I'm still thinking about the Country Songs About Country Songs #this is actually a cover too though I never hear the original around anywhere #(it's by Darrell Scott who is also the originator for 'You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive' #turns out he's got a bunch of songs that got picked up and made somewhat more popular in the hands of other folks. an interesting legacy) #the best lines of this song to sing are also the bits About Country Music--well the whole song's about chasing the love of it #but this bit is bemoaning the kids these days you know. country music isn't what it used to be. why back in my day etc etc #it's so so so much fun to sing too because you get to exaggerate your 'I think's until they rhyme with 'Hank'. excellent work #'we listen to the radio to hear what's cookin / but the music ain't got no soul #now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard / they got money but they don't have Cash #they got Junior but they don't have Hank / I think I think I think / the rest is a long time gone' #it's fascinating to me to think about these songs in (saying 'historical' here is giving me psychic damage but) historical context #because the Darrell Scott original for Long Time Gone came out in 2000 and The Chicks released their version in 2002 #so they were talking about the trend towards American jingoism in country music of the time #versus like Waylon Jennings in 1975 'Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way' #(I typed that and /then/ went back and looked up the release date and I'm so proud I got it right) #already bemoaning the state of country music in the 70s versus good old classic country like Hank Williams Senior sang #(Hank Jr covered Waylon's song in 1981. like yes it's a tribute to his father but also Hank Jr was a big push towards outlaw country #and has a few pretty famous songs himself about not singing like his daddy did. it just seems a strange choice to me) #and then Eric Church put out 'Lotta Boot Left to Fill' in 2009 calling out the shallowness of the country music scene of the time #(talking some only-thinly-veiled shit about a few of his peers in the process) #and then he released 'Stick That In Your Country Song' in 2021 and that /definitely/ put some backs up #that one's a less directed but more direct call-out if that makes any sense #no lines that are direct references to other artists' songs but stronger sentiments overall #not just general 'y'all are getting shallow prioritizing good times and high sales over genuine heart and integrity of craft' #but some straight up 'you have forgotten the face of your father' shit towards country artists and fans alike. the whole industry #a very good righteous-anger song
