#i love that at some point ryuu is like. hey. could you please shut up SJDHSHFJDH

[amphii-writes]

Hi! I would like to request an angst fic where the reader gets into a fight with any of the karasuno boys and ends up in an accident after running away. You can choose anyone who you like! Thanks

So, because of how much creative liberty you gave me I’m gonna make the accident less of a “your hurt” accident but an accidental meeting if you catch my drift! Okay, on that note here are the three boys I thought would work the best with this idea:

Asahi

Tsukishima

Ennoshita

surprising, right? people seem to forget that Asahi quit the club and ennoshita almost quit like 5 times, and Tsukishima is self-explanatory.

Part two -->here<--

Thank you so much for requesting! It means a lot to me!

synopsis: Tsukishima snapped at you after you asked him to support your friendship, doing so, you ran away and met a tall man with red hair and a strange smile. genre: ANGST, slight fluff in the memories and end! warnings: Swearing, toxic friendships, heartbreak, etc. pairing: Platonic?Tsukishima & Yamaguchi x F!Reader x Platonic?Tendou word count: 1.7k

After a long day of doing club activities and homework, you were thoroughly beat. Who could blame you, staying up late nights for some free time and to get your homework done. But you always made sure to check in on your closest friends: Yamaguchi and Tsukishima.

You three had met at the beginning of middle school, as you were getting made fun of by some kids and Tsukishima stepped in and helped you. Since then you’d always wanted to repay him with your time and effort in the friendship. He was often cold to you though, leaving you to believe that nothing would ever happen in the friendship and that he’d leave you high and dry.

You and Yamaguchi often discussed Tsukishima’s personality and actions to try to attest to his actions, which at some points was hard due to his slightly sadistic nature. After long nights of ranting to each other about your frustrations, you two became closer.

Long sleepless nights filled with laughter and music often warmed your heart, especially when Tsukishima joined. He had made both you and Yamaguchi playlists- full of songs that reminded him of you guys and a small description in the bio. It was the sweetest thing he’d ever done for a long time, but then he started getting colder to you, distant. He would push you away and use words sharper than knives to cut open your heart and let it bleed a little. You had asked Yamaguchi to talk to him about it but he just said that Tsuki told him not to bring you up anymore. 

You had no idea what to do, why he exiled you, and why you never saw this coming in all honesty. You wondered if he saw you checking up on him as clingy, or how you’d make treats for him and Yamaguchi and see it as annoying or too doting. You thought of everything you could until you decided to talk with him face-to-face, which you knew would be hard, but you knew you had to try.

Armed with some baked goods and a dinosaur plushie in your already weighted backpack make your eyes droop with exhaustion. But, you were determined to go and ask him what was up. You couldn’t let such a meaningful relationship go to waste.

As you approached the gym, the sound of volleyballs bouncing around the floor filled your ears, a faint yet somewhat comforting sound. You were proud of Tadashi and Kei for doing a sport, you knew it would exhaust them, but you believed it was exactly what they needed. the feeling of light dread and the beating of your heartbeat the sound of the slams of the balls, now a faint memory in your ears.

“NOYA, LOOK OVER HERE!” you heard a male voice yell, it was coming closer to the door. “RYUU, WHAT DO YOU MEAN- OH!” a short guy with a blonde streak of hair made eye contact with you, his eyes full of energy. He ran to the door and opened it completely for you. by this time, the whole gym is now aware of your existence.

“So, what’s a cute girl doing here? Waiting for someone-” The boy named “Noya” was then promptly picked up along with his friend, “Ryuu” by a tall boy with brown hair and kind chestnut eyes. “My apologies, what do you need?” he asked with a smile. You then saw a boy with orange hair jumping up and down.

“Kageyama, look how pretty she is! Is she gonna be a manager? Hey! Are you gonna be a manager? Your very pretty!” his sweet attitude and words reminded you of what you were there for, who you were there for. You chuckled, rubbing your hand on the back of your neck.

“Thank you for your compliments but I’m just here to walk home with my friends after they’re both done with practice, I don’t mean to be a bother. To apologize, would you like some brownies? I think I brought enough for everyone here-” you were cut off by the two boys who first greeted you praying and crying out of joy. 

“Well, if you don’t mind then we’d love some! I’m Daichi Sawamura, the captain of the volleyball team” He shook your hand, his grip was just tight enough and his hands where calloused and warm, you were then met with a boy with long hair and some stubble hunching over, his hand rubbing his neck as he flashed a shy smile and bowed and thanked you. You saw so many different looking people, the skinhead and blonde streak boy seeming to be the most energetic out of the team. You finally were met with Yamaguchi jogging over to you after seemingly talking to Tsukishima. 

“Hey, Y/N! Thank you for coming, I appreciate it!” Tadashi smiled brightly. “Oh yeah- I, um... this is me and Tsuki’s friend: Y/N!” he stumbled on his words because of how many eyes were onto him.

“Y/N? Why are you here?” Tsukishima sounded frustrated “Tsuki, let her explain! Please?” only to be answered with a “Shut up, Yamaguchi.” in an icy cold tone, icier than usual. “Well, I just wanted to see if you were okay, and in all honesty, I wanted to talk to you privately-” you said, trying to calm the thumping of your heart.

“Y/N, if I was avoiding you, it was for a reason, now leave.” He snapped, the whole gym was quiet, no sound of balls, just everyone holding their breath. “Tsukishima, please hear me out-” you were once again cut off by the harsh words of one of your closest friends.

“Y/N. I don’t care about what you want to say to me, shut up and leave.” his words made you hold your breath, choking back the salty tears with a warm smile and a bow and you reached into your bag to grab a small dinosaur plushie. You handed it to him without a word, left the bag of sweets with the boys, said goodbye, and then ran out the door. you heard the faint yell of Yamaguchi and Daichi saying something. 

You could only imagine how awkward the team felt, you felt bad for coming, felt horrible for bothering him so much. You knew deep down that you did nothing wrong, that he just had to learn how to cope with his emotions, but that didn’t change the ache in your heart as your feet carried you to the street. You were aimlessly running until you were met with a stop sign, the red lights from the stoplights illuminating your skin with the bright blue.

You just aimlessly walked around the streets, not caring where you’re heading, where you are. Your tear-stained cheeks being wiped away by your sweater sleeves. The moving of cars and the small amount of business on the streets welcoming your bad mood. A tune of humming met your ears as you looked around yourself. You had somehow managed to run yourself to Shiratorizawa Academy. Honestly, now that you think about it, your feet do feel sore after walking for so long.

"Hey! Whatchu doin' here? That uniform means your from Karasuno, right?" only to be met with a perky male voice, he sounded mischievous. you turned around to see a tall boy with sanpaku eyes and a mischievous smile. His hair was a medium red and his eyes were sunken in, but not dull. But as soon as he saw your tired eyes and your tear-stained cheeks his demeanor changed. “Hey, are you okay? Can I do anything to help?” by this time you had already cried all your tears, so you just simply asked him to listen, and listen he did.

He never interjected, but he was paying attention, nodding with you while walking into Shiratorizawa. You two were met by three boys, one with black hair and a bowl-cut, one with peach hair and slanted bangs that you giggled at, and a very tall man with broad shoulders and olive hair. Tendou had asked you if he could explain what happened and the team let you in with open arms.

“So, I know what I’m about to say doesn’t justify his actions at all! I’m not that stupid!” you giggled at his lightheartedness “But, ya know how parents often tell girls ‘If he hits ya, he likes ya?’ yeah, that’s the vibe I’m getting off of Mr. Four-eyes here.” he sighed “Still doesn’t mean much when he treats ya like garbage- I’m so sorry by the way- oh wait! I haven’t even introduced myself; I’m Tendou Satori! I’m a middle blocker for Shiratorizawa’s volleyball team. I guess not all volleyball boys are bad, huh?” he stuck his tongue out at you playfully and smiled.

He was so nice to you, hell, the whole team was so nice to you! but little did you know that your phone was blowing up with messages from Yamaguchi. He wasn’t going to forgive Tsukishima that easily after what he had done.

And Tendou said that if they ever played Karasuno, he wouldn’t go hard on him, but he knew he was lying, just a little bit. Hey, it isn’t cool to leave a girl crying in the middle of the street ya know?

Thank you so much for reading and requesting again, it means so much to me!

this is also my first fic that i wrote for someone who isn’t a close friend, so thank you so much!

Thank you so much for ordering and checking up on Kyupid's Love Shop. One Dalgona Matchup Latte coming up! Huh, I’ve been seeing lots of side effects for this one… anyways, I matcha up with ˚₊·͟͟͟͟͟͟͞͞͞͞͞͞➳❥

➞ before you two were in a relationship, ryuu didn’t actually… particularly like you, he was still smitten with ms. kiyoko y’know

➞ he’s sadly one of those people who do judge the book by its cover, but only because he prefers to be surrounded by positive people, and well… you didn’t particularly radiate that kind of vibe with, uh, your face (he really do be a hypocrite though with that ‘grr grr thug’ face of his 😔✌️)

➞ ryuu found you so intimidating (and beautiful, but he was in denial back then), you once saw him do his signature ‘gangsta’ look at you; yeah… y’all definitely didn’t get along at first — but ahem, let me introduce you to another matchmaker, ennoshita!

➞ enno knows your true personality and he vibes with you so well, therefore it really confused him when you accidentally slipped in something about ryuu’s attitude towards you during one of your guys’ convos (y’all were in a group project together) and he knows the reason why ryuu tends to avoid you, so he devised a plan to get you two to know each other: have a study date!

➞ when ryuu walked into the room and saw you, mans turned into the flash and just dashed towards the exit — but enno was one step ahead, so he got nishi to lock the doors before dropping off tanaka, and his attempt to leave failed

➞ it was soooo embarrassing for the both of you when enno kept on trying to keep a conversation going between the two of you; but when he decided to leave to make hot chocolate, ryuu apologizes and voices his concerns, and you just reply with “oh… oh, yeah that kind of happens… a lot” so you try to explain your side; he was honestly heartbroken from hearing that you experience it often, so he made it his mission to make it up to you

➞ and now would you look at that! you and ryuu are suddenly a couple now— (better thank enno for that)

➞ he will apologize profusely about the way he treated you beforehand, even if you’ve already told him a millions times that it’s fine; like y’all already have kids and he’ll still be like:

“hey, honey…”

“yeees?”

“you remember that time in high schoo—“

“omg, ryuu, not this again…”

“i just want to say that i’m so sor—“

“it’s been 19 years!”

➞ you will honestly feel like a queen, i’m being legit here; he’ll not only be your king, he’ll also be your knight in shining armour, and your butler — he’s the whole package, bby, and you’re one lucky girl to get all of that

➞ you think you’re too caring? nah, ryuu’s about to show you the life of a full time simp (skjkskss ik that being a simp is like so looked down on, but ik that every girl wants a man who’s a simp anyways)

➞ i’m kidding, he’s actually not a simp (A man who foolishly overvalues and defers to a woman, putting her on a pedestal) but more so he’s a doting boyfriend; you just know that you’re always gonna be at your best once you get into a relationship with him, so in a way, you are treated like a queen but not to the point where he worships the ground you walk on

➞ unless you tell him that you need some space, he’ll either have his arm lightly snaked around your waist or his hand resting on the small of your back; it’s his way of knowing that you’re protected and safe around him

➞ this relationship’s dynamic works extremely well since you both balance each other’s personalities in the aspects that you won’t have to worry about being a pushover around him since that’s not something that’ll occur with him; your more reserved personality compliments his outgoing one since if ever needed, you two could bring out the other side more in each other; he tends to have a more free personality (he’s still mature, but tends to enjoy life’s offerings) so whenever he feels that you’re overthinking again, he will coo and just reassure you that it’s okay to overthink sometimes, but it’s not worth having it control your entire mood and day

➞ ngl, he’s hella stubborn as well, but when it comes to you, he makes sure to understand your thinking first and then decide before he’ll let you take control — unless he thinks you’re completely wrong, then he won’t hesitate to put a foot down because he’s not going to help you turn into a spoiled brat, which is what hubby-material boyfriends do!

➞ to him though, it’s okay to be a lil’ vain, everyone wants to look to their best! but if it does however is on the verge of crossing the line of being full-on narcissistic, then he’ll confront you about it and ask you about why you’re acting the way you are, he’ll just try to put you into healthy-thinking mode back again

➞ you like memes? welp, that makes the two of you then! he definitely sends those wholesome memes, but his most favourite one to send you (especially as one those ‘good morning texts’) is:

➞ then he follows it up with ‘good morning, babe. strong power thank you to you always 😙😙 i love you so much. see ya at school!’ (aight, sorry, i just had to)

➞ kpop dances and karaoke on. the. daily! it doesn’t matter which song he’s dancing/singing to, as long as he gets to see you smile and know that you’re happy, he’ll do it all for you; he’ll also be your hypeman, and you’ll legit feel as if you’re an actual kpop idol with all the cheering he does — we love a supportive bf in this household

➞ *cough* he’ll sing lemonade by jeremy passion to you and he sounds so fokin beautiful— *cough*

➞ during calls with him, all you can hear is very loud laughter; whoever hears it (saeko for the most part) will just unconsciously smile since your guys’ laughs are just so genuine, even if it sometimes sounds a bit like a bunch of overheated kettles, they’ll just know that you both are having such a good time together and i mean, who wouldn’t want something like that?

➞ with you, he’s the type to send a message asking if you’re awake at like 2 AM, and if you do reply then expect him to come thru your window with some food in hand because he just felt like hearing your voice and seeing you; if not, then he’ll just send some cute message like ‘sleep tight and have good dreams, baby, i’ll see you tomorrow at school’

➞ once you two started dating, ryuu just had a more realistic view of relationships and he honestly prefers it way more than the scenarios that he’s created; now he appreciates privacy when it comes to showing affection instead of full-on just laying it all out in public, it just makes it that much more special to him; holding hands and just small skin contacts is his much more preferred pda than bear-hugging you or kissing you

➞ he’s not as needy as most expected him to be, in fact he actually often just caters to your needs because to him that’s enough; so expect small gifts here and there like making you a bento box, buying you strawberry milk, key-chains and bracelets, etc.

➞ he’s just more mature when he’s in an actual relationship because he does think that that’s something special that should only be shared between the two lovers; that doesn’t mean that he won’t occasionally show you off though, so you may or may not accidentally hear him rambling to the vbc about how lucky he is to call you his

➞ he will remember and notice every little thing about you; he notices that you’re humming some new kpop song absentmindedly? he’ll ask you about it during lunch; you made a small comment about liking korean food? he’ll make some for you! and best believe it tastes amaaaaaazing

➞ with ryuu, the thought of being a burden won’t ever cross your mind because he will often remind you that you make his days so much better and thank you for it (just good shet right here)

➞ even if you feel bad for not going to gyms with him because of your tendencies of being a lil’ lazy, he won’t force you at all; he’ll either just give you a kiss on the lips and walk you home before going, or he’ll call you whilst he’s at the gym; you’ll just feel so appreciated

➞ oh, and you won’t ever have to be worried about being awkward! there’s no such thing when you’re with your boyfriend ryuu, everything just comes so natural when you’re with him, everything will just feel so right

➞ this is the relationship that everyone knows will eventually turn into marriage and building a joyous family, and everyone expects to be invited because they all wouldn’t want to miss any part of yours and ryuu’s genuine relationship that they’ve all more than likely have been a part of since the beginning; in short, everyone wants to witness your relationship’s full story till it’s very end.

I hope you enjoyed your Dalgona Matchup Latte! Here’s a visual of your chaotically genuine relationship with Tanaka Ryuunosuke: After seeing your true persona during the study sesh with Enno, he’s become all flustered every time he looks at you instead of looking at you with his usual ‘imma thug’ look; Your first kiss (he planned it, no kidding — literally place, time, the vibes, he just wanted it to be perfect for you); Tanaka likes to take his shirt off, so when you both cuddled for like the third time, and just blacked out from exhaustion after a heavy day of practice, he wakes up to find you cuddled up against his chest which is bare, this man screams— his thoughts were like ‘omg, did we do it? was i drunk? omg, pls forgive me, y/n 😭’… and you’re just left there like ‘bruh, dafuq?’; when he’s feeling appreciative of you or just being soft in general, he hugs you similar to the gif and kisses your temple before burying his face into your hair to whisper “i love you so much, y/n, you don’t even understand”; him holding your hand to his face and just talking to you, whether it’s about your day or his, or telling you how much he loves you, is probably something that he does all time whenever you two are alone.

Thank you so much for ordering and being patient with Kyupid's Love Shop, I hope you’ll still order in the future! Have a very very lovely day, sweetie ♡⋆.ೃ࿔*

an: lmao, forget about kiyoko, you his girl now. periodt.

sorry this took waaay too long, bby 😔 the spa day turned into a whole pamper-me day so i was out all day… i’m really sorry, i hope you still like your order even though it came later than promised 🥺 if there’s anything wrong (gif, colored texts not showing up) then please message me!

tanaka is waaaay too underrated, but i honestly think that he’ll literally be one the top 5 best bfs from haikyuu, like legit this man will make you feel like a damn queen (kiyoko do be lucky tho) maybe not in the beginning, but like definitely after a few weeks or so.

beachboy (2)

bottom

part 1 

real quick: this is really different. if you dont like it, hey that’s okay. i’ll have more of my usual stuff out soon. just trying out a new style, new povs, yaknow. experimenting.

this series will be a 3-parter. all based off of beachboy by mccafferty as well as loosely based on other songs by them - this one, bottom. 

edit as of august 4th, 2020: please, don’t go listen to those songs and don’t support mccafferty as the lead singer (nick hartkop) is a piece of shit for multiple reasons, and i am sad to say that one of my favorite stories on this blog is inspired by music made by him. i debated taking these down after learning about the problems within this band caused by the man mentioned above, but i think i would rather use this space to spread awareness. where i once promoted mccafferty, i am now denouncing them. if you want know more information about this, this linked video is a great starting point for information. but take this as your trigger warning: some things mentioned are graphic, involving extreme manipulation and domestic abuse.

thank you for reading and i hope you understand why this note has been added.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it’s loosely tanaka x reader. very tanaka centric. reader is hardly there - just as, like, a storytelling vessel. but there are fem pronouns!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He was trying to leave without any issues. He was trying to get out of there without seeing someone he never wanted to see again. Before that feeling in his gut came back. 

Just knowing Kiyoko was there was enough to cause his anxiety to peak. Knowing that he was on the same property as his ex girlfriend was almost too much - almost. 

Seeing her walk out of the party with the man she’d left him for? That was too much. 

“Get in the fucking car now or I’m leaving -” 

“It’s a van,” Sugawara corrected. 

“You sound more angsty than usual - ohhh.” 

As soon as she shut the door, Tanaka started the engine and sped off. He could hardly see the road thanks to the tears clouding his vision, but he wiped them away and just drove. 

He wished that he could drive away from all of those memories. And that he could leave his emotions at that washed up party. And that something could take away the pain he felt. 

Except none of that was possible. And fuck, fuck, fuck - he couldn’t handle it. 

Until he felt a hand on his leg, and the touch pulled him out of the hole he was sinking into.

“Are you okay? Just tell me you’re okay and maybe start driving a little better, please -” 

“I’m fine, just shut up - shut up.” 

He’d focus on getting all of his friends home. He’d think about the details of the night later; actually, he hopes he’ll be too exhausted by then to think about anything. 

None of them gave him any trouble this time, surprisingly. Either they were too drunk or it was too late in the night, he wasn’t sure which one - he also didn’t care. 

“Thank fuck that’s over.” 

But he’s still got this giggling girl in the passenger seat. 

“Were you going to spend the night with Suga or something? Is that why you came?” 

“No, I came to keep you company.” 

He wasn’t sure what made her think he needed company; maybe she was just another person who felt bad for him. Everyone was feeling bad for him these days - hell, he felt sorry for himself. 

Although, they apparently didn’t feel bad enough to stop inviting his ex to parties. 

“God dammit,” he said, without even realizing he said it out loud. 

“Ryuu?” she asked, and for the first time in a long time, she actually sounded just like he remembered her voice sounding. 

“What.” 

“Are you… okay, Ryuu?” 

And she was one of the only ones who still called him by that nickname; just more proof of the aged friendship he had with her.

“I don’t know. Why are you even asking? I don’t know.” 

She was looking at him so intently, while he was still staring out of the windshield at Sugawara’s house - they had yet to leave. 

“No, I’m not fucking okay. God dammit.” 

He was so not okay that he couldn’t stand it. 

“Everything fucking sucks - parties suck. My friends suck. She fucking sucks.” 

He was so not okay, in fact, that he was yelling at his high school best friend about it. 

“I know you loved her a lot -” 

“No shit, Y/N!” 

Finally he looked over at her, and even though he’d just lashed out at her, she wasn’t taken aback. She was calmer than she’d been all night, in fact. 

“So you’re allowed to be sad about what she did to you! Because that fucking sucks, Ryuu!” 

“No shit,” he said again with a sigh, sitting back in his seat. 

“I’m just saying that… it’s okay. And you’re okay, or - you’ll be okay. And I want to be there for you.” 

He wasn’t sure how to reply, so he didn’t. He didn’t understand why she still cared about him, especially because he was the reason the friendship got fucked. 

Rather, his failed relationship with Kiyoko was to blame. But specifics didn’t matter anymore.

None of this mattered anymore - he shouldn’t be thinking about things that happened in high school. It was too long ago. It shouldn’t matter. 

“Ryuu… I want to help you feel better.” 

It was years ago, in fact. Back when his hair was much shorter, when he didn’t have his ear pierced, when he couldn’t handle his liquor. 

Except he still couldn’t handle his liquor. And he really wants to shave his head again - the undercut wasn’t working anymore. He likes the earring, though. 

“Ryuu?”

He gripped the steering wheel tightly; he could hear the leather rubbing against his skin.

“I just want this feeling to go away. I just want to forget about her.” 

And then her hand was on his leg again - he wasn’t exactly sure what that gesture meant, but he’d put the pieces together eventually. 

“Let me help you feel better.”  

“Nothing will help.” 

“I’ve... helped you feel better before. Remember? Let’s just do that again.” 

And then she was kissing him; he didn’t know why or how or when, but her lips were on his and for some reason, he was kissing her back. 

This would have been much weirder if this was their first kiss, if her lips didn’t feel so familiar. 

“Your lips taste the same,” she pulled away to say, a giggle light on her lips. 

He didn’t know what she meant; he’s sure his lips didn’t taste like cigarettes in high school, because he didn’t start smoking until college. But he didn’t care. She could say whatever the hell she wanted to say - he didn’t care. 

Then, he was kissing her - yet again, he didn’t know why. Maybe because someone else’s lips would get his mind off of hers, maybe he could convince himself that she was a better kisser than his ex. Maybe she actually would be. 

“I live down the street.” 

Yeah, and the back of the van was right there. 

“Okay.” 

And he knows where she lives - she didn’t have to tell him.

Chapter 1: Your First Lesson in Despair ~Post-Trial~

//And the end to the actual plot of chapter 1! Probably will do FTE after this or maybe I’ll do all of them as a big post at the very end of the story. We’ll see!

//Hope ya’ll enjoy this!

-Chapter 1, Post Trial-

 “Congratulations! Just as you all suspected, the one who trapped and killed Maemi Watanabe was none other than Saori Kibe, the Ultimate Paranormal Investigator!” Monokuma clapped. He says ‘congratulations’, but this doesn’t feel like a victory. Not at all.

 “Kibe…” Shinko-san spoke through gritted teeth. “I want to know. I want to know why the fuck this all went down! Why the hell did you kill Watanabe?! Was your past that fuckin’ bad?!”

 “Th-that’s not it…” Kibe-san tried.

 “Then what?! What the fuck could’ve possibly happened to-“

 “Shinko-sama. Enough. Allow Kibe-sama to speak freely, or this will go nowhere.” Ishikawa-san cut in. Shinko-san grunted and turned away from Kibe-san. She took a breath and looked up at us.

 “I…I had to get out of here. When Monokuma, I knew what my note had to be…my older sister and I had a fight before I entered Hope’s Peak. She said some things, I said some things…and she said she never wanted to see me again…th-the idea that I’m stuck in here and might never get to reconcile with her…” Kibe-san’s eyes seemed to light us as she thought of her sister. “She was really smart, I couldn’t help but admire her. Even if she’d hate me, I can’t help but love my sister…”

 “What a stupid reason.” Shinko-san spat.

 “Shut up, will you?! My god, do you not think before you speak?! I’m so fuckin’ sorry that you have nobody to care about in the outside world, but not everyone else is like you!” Kurohiko-san snapped, surprising everyone. “K…Kibe-san cares about her family above all else, and that’s not something that she should be hated for. The whole point of motives is that if we knew about those notes, we would’ve killed for it. So…it’s not Kibe-san’s fault that she figured out the note before seeing it.”

 “K-Kurohiko-kun…” Kibe-san’s bottom lip trembled. “E-even if you say that, I killed Watanabe-san! I killed someone who was going to work so hard to keep everyone alive and I targeted her because of it! It’s my fault…! Watanabe-san…I’m sorry! I’m s-sorry…!”

 “Watanabe-sama was a very forgiving person…I’m sure that she would forgive your actions from beyond the eternal slumber. Memento Mori…” Ishikawa-san whispered the last part of her statement. I looked at Kibe-san, knowing what she must be going through. The idea of never seeing a family member again, I don’t think I could handle it either…

 “I…I don’t expect anyone here to forgive me. I was ready to sacrifice you all so I could leave…I’m an awful person!”

 “…it’s okay, Kibe-san. I don’t blame you.” We all looked at Ram-san. “Ah, um…! Th-that is to say…we were putting in this kind of situation, so our minds wouldn’t think of many options…” Even though she got suspected because of Kibe-san…Ram-san, you’re a really nice person, aren’t you? But who are you really…?

 “Ram-san…thank you.” Kibe-san smiled weakly.

 “Alright, if we’re done with all that, then it’s time to move onto the main event!” Monokuma jumped up to interrupt us. M…main event…? “It’s time to move onto the punishment!”

 “P-punishment…th-the execution?!” Kibe-san fell to her knees. “W-wait, no, don’t I get a chance to plead a case or something?!”

 “Let’s get this moving, I’ve prepared a very special punishment for the Ultimate Paranormal Investigator, Saori Kibe!” H-he wasn’t even listening to her!

 “You can’t do this, you have to let me outta here now! Someone get me out of here!” Kibe-san began pounding on the walls. I can’t turn away, but I don’t want to watch.

 “Let’s give it everything we’ve got! Iiiiiiit’s PUNISHMENT TIME!!”

 “RETSUKOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!”

 -GAME OVER- -SAORI KIBE HAS BEEN FOUND GUILTY!- -COMMENCING EXECUTION!-

 We all watched with horror a metal chain latched around Kibe-san’s neck and dragged her off to a room behind Monokuma’s throne as a massive TV screen lowered into the room and flashed on. The screen showed Kibe-san in the middle a child’s bedroom, the camera looking like any old camera used for home videos.

 -Saori Kibe’s Execution: What’s in the Shadows?-

 Kibe-san turned on a flashlight and shined it around the room trying to find an exit. In the corner of the room a rocking chair began to move on its own causing Kibe-san to jump and hit her back against the wall. When she touched it, a panel moved away from the wall and a blade stabbed her through the arm she wasn’t holding the flashlight with.

 She stumbled, knocking into the cot and onto the toys scattered on the floor. She yelped again and rolled off them and shined the flashlight again, seeing an exit in front of her. The door swung open and something behind Kibe-san appeared, grabbing her by the ankle and dragging her through the doorway. The camera switched to a staircase and we watched as Kibe-san was thrown down the staircase, hitting her head several times.

 She managed to get up at the bottom though was visibly bleeding from a wound on her head. Then the shadow appeared again behind her. The figured grabbed Kibe-san by the head but before we could all see what happened, the camera footage glitched out for a few moments.

 It came back and the sight left in front of us was Kibe-san sitting on a couch with her neck clearly broken and a spear stabbed through her torso.

 --

 We were in shock. Even Sly-san had been caught off guard by the brutality of the execution. Ram-san had fallen to her knees and was sobbing into her hands, unable to even look up at the TV screen that the rest of us, try as we might, couldn’t tear our gazes away from.

 “Wowee! That was pretty suspenseful, don’t’cha think?! Like that one horror movie! What’s it called? Paranormal Ac-“

 “Wh-what the hell was that…?” Okanaya-san said weakly. “She was gonna die so why make a twisted show of it…?”

 “Huh? She killed someone in such a fancy way, so why shouldn’t she get the same treatment? Get a grip, idiots! I just paid her back for what she did to your precious leader!” Monokuma stuck a paw in the air.

 “Ah…Monokuma’s right. Kibe simply got what she deserved.” Kurosaki-san shrugged. “Such a waste of space, thinking she could get away with killing Mademoiselle Watanabe like that. Frankly, you should’ve prolonged her head. Snapping her neck was far too kind.”

 “Oh, you think so? Got any notes for me next time?” Monokuma produced a notepad.

 “K-Kurosaki-san?! What are you saying?! How can you be okay with what you just saw?!” I couldn’t believe Kurosaki-san would say that. No matter how you look at it, Kibe-san didn’t deserve to die. Especially not like that. Kurosaki-san simply looked at me before his face darkened with a smirk. A smirk I’d never expect to see on someone. It was so full of malice that it made me wince.

 “Huh? Nagata-kyun, I would prefer if you kept that kind of question to yourself! After all…I’ll never forgive Kibe for killing her. Never ever.” Kurosaki-san tipped his hat down. “Mademoiselle Watanabe…she went through so much, and yet…”

 “What was that about Watanabe-san?” Kurohiko-san asked.

 “Nothing. Never mind that. The trial is over, so how about we all go get some rest, m’kay?” Kurosaki-san smiled as gently as he would normally, but I can’t get that image of a few seconds ago out of my head. Kurosaki-san…just what kind of person are you?

 -Chapter 1, Post Trial Ryuu-

 I sat in my room staring blankly at the ceiling, I was trying my best to fall asleep, but…the things I saw today. Watanabe-san’s murder. Kibe-san’s execution. Kurosaki-san’s inner darkness. I’d probably just have a nightmare if I tried to sleep.

 The bell at my door rang. “C-coming!” Though I was hesitant, I went and answered it. And when I opened the door, standing there scratching his neck awkwardly was Okanaya-san.

 “H-hey, um…it’s Nagaru, right…?”

 “Nagata.” I corrected.

 “R-right! Nagata…sorry, um…I’m not really good at this stuff, but…you helped me during the trial today, so I wanted to thank you. You knew I went through that cafeteria, but you lied to save me. Did…you really think I was innocent that much?” If I was honest, a lot of it was down to Kurosaki-san…

 “I guess I just don’t see you as a killer.” I murmured. I was still nervous to talk to him knowing what his temper is like. “You weren’t the killer, so I did what I needed to in order to get everyone else to believe me. I’m just glad that everything turned out as good as it could have…” No, if everything was as good as it could be, I wouldn’t be in a killing game with everyone.

 “Y-yeah…you really don’t see me as a killer?”

 “Should I?”

 “It’s just…” His voice trailed off. Was…Okanaya-san blushing? “…most people assume I’m a serious brute, but I’m not a bad person. I don’t think I am in any case. Sorry about hitting you before, by the way. If I didn’t cause a commotion, Kibe might not have been able to steal those keys for her plan.”

 “You shouldn’t blame yourself. And I’m fine, see?” I smiled. It was forced, but I didn’t want Okanaya-san feeling down. “We’re in such a strange situation, I can’t blame you for being tense. We’re all handling the situation in different ways and to different degrees…but, from now on, if you want people to see you in a better light then you should include yourself in the group. Come to the cafeteria tomorrow.”

 “Th-the cafeteria…” Okanaya-san looked nervous about that idea.

 “I’ll wait for you there, you can sit with me.” I don’t know what was causing me to be so nice to him. Hopefully he’ll come though.

 “Yeah…thanks, Nagata.” He smiled softly…

 …

Okanaya-san’s smile feels…comforting.

 -Chapter 1 Post Trial Yuuki-

 “A rendezvous with you, is this a date or do you plan on trying to kill me?” Yuuki asked.

 “Please don’t suggest either of those things ever again. I just need to talk to you, seeing as you’re the most suspicious one in the group.” Sly crossed his arms.

 “I don’t really like hearing that from the Ultimate Assassin. Couldn’t a killing game be one big convoluted method of killing a bunch of targets at once?” Yuuki smirked. “Of course, you’re not the one behind the killing game.”

 “You’re so sure of that?”

 “I am.”

 “Why?”

 “Are you the mastermind?” Yuuki stepped a little closer.

 “No, I’m not.” Sly took a step back, his expression becoming increasingly more irritated. “Who are you? You introduced yourself as the Ultimate Explorer, but my gut is telling me that was probably a lie.”

 “You think I’d lie to you all? I haven’t told any lies since I got here.” Yuuki lied.

 “Kurosaki let me make one thing clear. As long as you aren’t a threat, I won’t bother you. I won’t tolerate any behaviour like before though.”

 “No need to worry about that. Mademoiselle Watanabe was a special case to me. I won’t become so emotional next time.”

 “Why is that?”

 “Why the interest? You’re an assassin, and you barely know anyone here. Should you care so much about me and my motivations?”

 “I may be an assassin, but I’m still a human. I don’t care about these people, but they still don’t deserve to die in such fashions, that much is obvious to anyone.” Sly said. Yuuki stared at Sly for a while before putting a hand to his chin and nodding thoughtfully.

 “Just as I thought…you’re a special one, Herr Knives.” Yuuki stepped closer and trapped Sly by slamming his hand against the wall behind Sly and using his other hand to tilt Sly’s chin up towards Yuuki’s face. “Please…entertain me sometime.”

 “Gross.” Sly answered, unphased. He pushed Yuuki off him. “Try not to get yourself into any trouble.” And with that, Sly walked off. Yuuki watched as Sly left and smirked once more.

 “So many interesting people here. I wonder how things will proceed from here.”

Meeting The Families: Part 5

*CRASH!*

*the two red pandas crash through the house, as Retsuko tumbles into the kitchen, plates dropping, and breaking on her*

Retsuko: AGH! STILL ALIVE, ASSHOLE!

Ryota: AS IF THAT WAS THE POINT. *lunges at her, to which she dodges* ALL THESE YEARS, YOU STILL HAVE YET TO LEARN A THING I TAUGHT YOU.

Retsuko: LIKE THERE WAS ANYTHING TO BE TAUGHT!

*as they continue to fight, the other family members sneak through the wreckage*

Haida: This is not good. We need a way to calm them, somehow!

Hiroko: I could hold them up!

Rie: That will only do so much, though. The rage itself needs to be neutralized.

Riko: ....where’s Ikari?

Haida: ....oh NO. *runs in* Ikari! IKARI!

Ikari: *in another room* ....dada?

Haida: *hearing the voice, and runs further into the house*

Hisoka: Come on! *the rest follow suit*

Ryuu: Aagh, why the hell am I even helping you guys?! I don’t even care what happens to her! Or the kid!

Rie: Because you still live in the same house as me, and I am willing to ground you for a long time.

Ryuu: ......point taken. *looks around* ...Iraki?

Riko: IKARI!

Ryuu: Right, thanks! Ikari! *looks to the side of himself, and....* Found him!

*he’s in the dining room, right in the middle, all by himself*

Ikari: ....bah-bah! :D

Ryuu: Urgh, there you ar-*to the side, he sees Ryota, demonically looking at the infant, almost as if for blood* ......dad, no. Don’t.

Ryota: SHUT IT! NOW SHE WILL KNOW TRUE LOSS!

*the two charge towards the baby, but at the last second, Retsuko and Haida lunged in from an angle, at Ryota, leaving Ryuu to grab Ikari*

Haida: Take him to safety! GO!

Ryuu: Got it! *runs off*

Ryota: HEH. GOT EVERYONE AGAINST ME NOW?

Retsuko: JUST ENOUGH TO KEEP YOU AWAY!

Haida: Can you two just calm down? Let’s not make this any wors-

Retsuko: AFTER THIS LONG?! IT DESERVES TO BE WORSE!

Ryota: FOR ONCE, WE SEEM TO AGREE. *lunges at Retsuko, grabs ahold of her, and THROWS her through the wall, outside, and runs after her, as she crashes into the temple*

Retsuko: *falls onto the floor, coughing out some blood* ACK! YOU DID THIS! ANY GOOD FATHER WOULD HAVE NEVER DONE THIS TO THEIR CHILD!

Ryota: *storms in* SO I’M NOT A GOOD FATHER NOW?! WITH A BRAT LIKE YOU, HOW COULD I BE?! IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING, RETSUKO, SO MANY YEARS OF PENT UP ANGER....BUT NOW, IN THE RESTING PLACE OF YOUR DEAR GRANDMOTHER, WE SHALL SETTLE THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL!

Retsuko: BRING I-*Ryota grabs her by the throat!* *ACK!*

Ryota: *SLAMS her on the wall with the urn, choking her* YOU LIKE THAT, HUH?!

Retsuko: *AGH!* P-PLEASE....STOP.....DAAAAD..!

Haida: *running in* Stop it! Ryota! THAT’S RETSUKO!

Ryota: I DON’T CARE! SHE WILL PAY! SHE...SHE WILL.....*he slowly lets her go, as she becomes unconscious....and his rage devolves....into utter horror* ........R-Retsuk-*SMASH!* ......*falls to the ground, unconscious, in a pile of shattered urn pieces, and ashes*

Haida: *runs up to the two* No, no! NO! HELP HEEEEELLLP! HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLP!!!!!!!!!

Like I stated previously, I am not the world’s best author of fight scenes. Which is amusing to me, as I love them. But yeah, overall, this was a pain to write. All the silly fight cliche lines I had to think up, all the intensity....yeah, it was not super fun. But hey! I got it done! Almost wrapped up with this arc, got about....a chapter or two left. Which then, I can FINALLY show my announcement. Until then!

The Threatening Smile of Atsushi Nakajima 

PJO AU

There is one, only one, advantage to being the son of a feared god, and Akutagawa will never let anyone take that away from him.

He gets to be alone.

Alone is a concept Akutagawa is in love with. While kids in school wrote their crush’s names on notebooks and followed them around like lost puppies, Akutagawa cherished the words alone and solitude and quiet like they were precious stones. He scribbles them in practiced calligraphy and holds it close to his soul, knowing that there are very few good things that have emerged form his heritage - but this is one of them.

Gin is the one exception to this rule, her gentle voice and quiet manner more than tolerable. Pleasant, even, for Akutagawa to be near. He supposes that’s one advantage to having a full sibling in this world - they get you like no one else.

Akutagawa narrows his eyes and pulls back his blade, glaring at the sharpened edge. He hates swords at best, their blunt sides and heavy handles more of a nuisance than a weapon. Chuuya beams at him from across the training mat, twirling his own blade with ease, a wicked smirk spreading over his lips.

“Come on, can’t hide in the shadows forever.” He snickers. His eyes flicker red, like blood through crystal streams.

“I can,” Akutagawa grumbles, “You just don’t want me to.”

Chuuya laughs, confirming this answer. “I know you prefer using your powers, but it’ll take forever for you to recharge. Shadows won’t always be on your side.”

Akutagawa hates that he’s right.

“We have a new kid, did you hear?” Chuuya stretches, pulling the fabric of his shirt up just enough to expose the tanned plain of his stomach. “I only got a glimpse of him, but he’s pretty small.”

“Says you.” Akutagawa snorts. Chuuya clips him on the shoulder.

“Watch your mouth, asshole.” The redhead grumbles, “I’m stronger than you.”

Akutagawa knows this is true, so he shrugs, and puts his blade back on the rack. “Who do think he belongs to?”

Chuuya tips his head, “Hm... Dazai reckons Apollo. He’s the only one who’s gotten the kid to talk, so I’m leaning more towards his opinion. Besides, he does have a really nice smile.”

“We don’t need another Apollo kid,” Akutagawa groans, “They’re annoying as heck.”

“Attractive, though,” Chuuya grins.

“I’m going to punch you.” Akutagawa groans, “I hate them so much.”

“Son of the shadows disliking the sunlight?” Chuuya laughs, “Way to be a stereotype.”

----

Akutagawa meets the kid at lunchtime, no surprise there, and he sees where Dazai was coming from.

The kid’s cute, with gold eyes reminiscent of the sun on a summer’s day and hair such a pale shade of blonde he might believe it’s absorbed moonlight itself. It makes for a quirky contrast, morning and night, sun and moon, light and dark, and Akutagawa hates that he finds the whole situation incredible endearing.

“Atsushi.” The boy grins, and his teeth glint charmingly in the afternoon sun.

Akutagawa stares down at his offered hand, eyes widening.

“This is Akutagawa,” Chuuya rolls his eyes, “He’s an antisocial asshole, don’t mind him.”

Atsushi laughs, and it shatters in the air like wind chimes. “Duly noted.”

Akutagawa tries to say something in his defense, but the smirk on Chuuya’s lips has him determined to keep his lips sealed.

“I’m Chuuya,” The redhead beams, “I’m the son of Ares.”

Atsushi’s eyes widen, and Akutagawa thinks he sees flecks of amaranthine swimming in the honey of his iris. “Oh my god, you’re...” His cheeks flush and he folds into a bow, “I’m so sorry for bumping into you earlier, please don’t kill me-”

“Hey,” Chuuya laughs, “It’s fine. No harm done.”

Atsushi nibbles his lip. “You’re not going to attack me?”

“Nah,” Chuuya rolls his eyes, “That what Dazai’s for.”

Attacking him with your dick maybe, Akutagawa thinks.

“No offense, but you don’t really look like a son of Ares.” Atsushi’s fairy-like hum sends Akutagawa out of his trance.

Akutagawa snickers.

“What?” Atsushi raises an eyebrow.

“I get that a lot.” Chuuya grumbles. “A lot.”

“Everyone thought he was one of Aphrodite’s kids when he first showed up here.” Akutagawa tries to explain.

“Well yeah, no one that tiny could be a kid of Ares, right?”

Chuuya turns and whacks Dazai with a paper plate, cussing at him for his remark. Atsushi seems to find the display amusing as Dazai continues to goad the teen into inflicting pain upon him. A masochist for sure.

“Are they always like that?” Atsushi asks. It takes a couple of seconds for Akutagawa to realize where his mosaic gaze is pointed.

“Yes,” He rolls his eyes, “Dazai’s been in love with Chuuya for five years now.”

“Love, huh?” Atsushi shakes his head, “They sure have an interesting way to show it.”

Akutagawa tilts his head, because he hasn’t said anything about Chuuya reciprocating the feelings. But Atsushi gestures at the two, at the smile Chuuya’s trying to hide from the brunette as they argue, inflicting sunlight in their interaction.

----

It takes about an hour for him to realize Atsushi is dangerous.

Akutagawa hasn’t ever had heart problems, but Atsushi’s dimple-filled smile has his heart pounding in an attempt to make blood reach every limb. He doesn’t sweat a lot, but Atsushi brings buckets of sweat from his hairline and to his armpits.

He’s certain that he has some special ability - maybe he’s a spy sent by Hades to infiltrate the inner workings of Camp. Not that this makes sense, because Hades no longer has any quarrel with Camp Half Blood, but he still doesn’t have a good reason for why Atsushi is making him flush and run away.

He finds himself more on guard near Atsushi than usual - growling and brandishing his claws to keep him a few steps away. This confuses Atsushi, and he takes a couple steps back at Akutagawa’s sudden hostility, when otherwise he had seemed mild-mannered, shy even.

“You like him, don’t you?” Chuuya teases.

“No. Shut up.” Akutagawa growls.

“Okay.” Chuuya snickers. “Whatever you say, Ryuu.”

--

He does.

Honjitsu no Kami Oroshi Ch. 1

New series I’ve decided to translate on a whim. I’ll be playing catch-up as the 3rd chapter comes out tomorrow, but this series will be translated on a more relaxed schedule when I do get caught up, prob within 1-2 weeks of the release. This won’t affect my Mononokean translations, so no worries.

Honjitsu no Kami Oroshi (or, “Today’s Divine Revelation,” as I’ve decided to translate it) is a slice of life-y/cooking manga by Yata Midori that just started serialization in Gangan Online last month. In it, established author Takatsuki Ryuunosuke hires his younger brother, Rintarou, to cook menus inspired by literary works in order to spark his ideas!

You can read the first chapter at http://www.ganganonline.com/contents/honzitsu/ by clicking “[1話] 赤毛のアン“  in the chapter listing!

Today's Divine Revelation Chapter 1 – Anne of Green Gables

Page 1

[Raspberry cordial, two types of cookies, fruit and nut pound cake,]

[A layer cake, and cherry pie.]

[This is

The divine revelation menu for entering the world of "Anne of Green Gables."]

Page 4

Ryuunosuke: Haa...

No ideas are coming to me...

Ryuu: How...

Ryuu: Many days ago did I last leave the house, again...?

Page 5

Woman: Eh?

You ended up firing that kid?

Man: No...

When I told him, "You should serve customers with more of a smile," he told me he couldn't...

Man: He said, "If it's going to be an issue, I'll quit."

Woman2: How inflexible!!!

Woman: He always had a sour look on his face, didn't he.

High school students should act more carefree.

Woman2: But, he was such a diligent worker. It's a shame.

What was his name again... Takasugi-kun?

Man: Takatsuki.

Page 6

Man: Takatsuki Rintarou-kun.

[This job wasn't any good either...]

Rintarou: (I thought I'd be able to manage if it was a bookstore...

Well...)

Rin: (The bookstore worker...

Said it was part of customer service. [But it's impossible])

Ryuu: Wha?

Page 7

Ryuu: What, now?

You ended up fired at another job!?

Rin: That's bad manners, Ryuunosuke.

Don't stand up while we're having a meal.

And don't point your chopsticks at people.

Rin: Lastly, a grain of rice! It's stuck to your face.

Ryuu: Ah, sorry.

Ryuu: ...That said, you shouldn't just call me by my name like that. I'm still your big brother, you know.

Rin: I didn't technically get fired.

Rin: I wasn't able to fulfill my employer's demands, so I quit.

Ryuu: Demands?

Rin: .......

Rin: A smile.

Page 8

Ryuu: (Bahaha!) That...

Ryuu: That was the demand...!?

Rin: ...

Ryuu: You can at least smile, can't you!?

Rin: Impossible.

I can't give one of those fake smiles.

But... Selfishly saying "I can't" at work is also unforgivable.

Rin: Therefore, I quit.

It was totally logical!!

Ryuu: How strict!!!

Ryuu: You're so strict, or should I say stubborn!

Ryuu: Are you really my younger brother...?

Ryuu: In the first place, why did you suddenly start looking for a part-time job?

Page 9

Rin:......

No real reason.

Rin: I just thought I should earn my own spending money since I'm a high school student, now.

Rin: Unlike my older bro, who's a shut-in with no talent for normal work.

Ryuu: !

Ryuu: Hey, hold up.

Ryuu: You know I'm a novelist!

Since my workplace is at home, it's not like I'm shutting myself in!

Rin: How many days has it been since you left the house?

Ryuu: If you're gonna say it like that...

Ryuu: Two weeks...?

Rin: Then you're a real shut-in, aren't you!?

Go outside a little! Don't you know your legs are gonna degenerate!?

Ryuu: No way!!

If there's nothing I have to do, there's no way I'm leaving the house!

Page 10

Ryuu: I hate the cold and stifling feeling of the outside world.

Society is overflowing with facades and fabrications.

Ryuu: Unending desires in transient abundance, false love...

The state of all those things wounds my heart.

Ryuu: That's why I've decided...

"I'll do my best not to leave the house."

Rin: Are you a hermit?

Ryuu: I have no discomfort. For I have the wings called "imagination"!

With these wings, I can go anywhere.

Rin: There's no helping you, huh.

Page 11

Rin: (Sigh...) Hey, bro...

It's a really good thing you found your current work as an author.

Ryuu: It's my calling!

I think... it's my calling, but...

Ryuu: ........

Recently, I've been in a little slump...

Ryuu: "A short story commemorating the 10 years since my debut."

Ryuu: Is the story I'm doing, but...

I'm not getting any good ideas.

Rin: They've dried up, huh? (All of them).

Ryuu: Haa... How nice...

Unlike me, the apple blossoms are in full bloom...

Rin: Don't get jealous of a tree.

Ryuu: Whenever the apple tree blooms, it reminds me of Anne of Green Gables...

Rin: Green Gables? What's that?

Page 12

Ryuu: "Anne of Green Gables" is a Canadian coming-of-age story about an orphan with red hair named Anne Shirley.

Ryuu: The highly imaginative protagonist Anne causes a stir with all sorts of incidents.

Ryuu: Friendship, family, and the old-fashioned daily life are all vibrantly written about in that masterpiece.

Ryuu: In the start of the series, before Anne is adopted, when she heads toward the "Green Gables"...

Ryuu: She passes through the rows of dreamily beautiful apple trees...

Ryuu: I really love that scene...

Ryuu: Ahh...

Ryuu: I want to visit Anne's world.

Page 13

Ryuu: If I could visit that world, if I could meet with Anne and happily chat with her...

Ryuu: I might get a revelation from god...

Rin: Why don't you go?

Ryuu: Eh...?

Rin: You have wings called imagination, don't you?

Then, why not go visit? Canada.

Why not visit that world?

Rin: In your head.

Ryuu: !

Ah...

Page 14

Ryuu: That's right! You're totally right, Rintarou!

Hey, why don't you do some work here at my place?

Rin: Wha? Work here?!

Ryuu: Yeah! See, your cooking's good, right?

Rin: Cooking...?

I mean, I can do a certain amount, but...

Ryuu: In Anne's story, all sorts of delicious food shows up.

Please let me have a taste of that moment's joy! While sitting in the comfort of my own home.

Rin: ...?

In your own home?

Ryuu: Yes! The title is!!

Ryuu: Under the Apple Tree!

Rin: !

Ryuu: A wonderful picnic that will take us to the world of Anne of Green Gables!!

Page 15

Rin: ....

Rin: Ehh...?!

Rin: Eh?

(An unforeseen development)

Ryuu: How about it?

Ryuu: One thousand yen an hour!!

Rin: ........

.....

Rin: Are...

Rin: Are you serious...

Girl1: Hey...

Takatsuki-kun is acting weird today, isn't he?

Girl2: Weird?

...He's eating lunch alone while reading, just like always.

Girl1: No, not that.

The book he's reading is what's weird! Look!

Page 16

Girls: A..

Anne of Green Gables...!!!

(Girl1: And with such a scary expression...)

Rin: (It's not like...)

Rin: (I want money so bad I need it from Aniki...)

(But, if I say "I can't" to everything...

I'll become a person that can't do anything.)

Rin: (Above all...)

Page 17

(When he was my age,)

(Aniki had already become an author.)

Rin: (I have to do something, too!!!)

Rin: Uhhh...

Two kinds of cookies, a fruit and nut pound cake, a layer cake...

Raspberry cordial, and a cherry pie. All together, six dishes.

Rin: If it's like that, any idiot should be satisfied.

Rin: The beginning of the tea party is at one o'oclock.

So, in five hours... Okay.

Page 18

Rin: (I'll make this order a success!!)

Rin: Uh, first off...

I'll cut the dough I made and refrigerated last night into cookies and bake them.

Rin: The classic cookies need a little assembly.

Place some jam in the middle of the plain cookies...

Rin: While they're baking, the raspberry cordial.

It seems a lot like raspberry juice...

Rin: The berries are mixed with sugar and put over heat,

And lemon juice and water are added. Once it reaches a boil, the mixture is strained.

(Rin: Incidentally, there's equal parts berries and sugar..)

[Sugar, 500g]

(Rin: The calories must be crazy...)

Rin: I did that part last night, so I just have to add water and soda to taste and it's ready.

Page 19

Rin: Next, the pound cake.

Rin: Beat together room temperature butter and sugar until it turns pale,

Then incorporate beaten eggs a little bit at a time.

(Rin: Looks like it's coming together...)

Rin: Then the flour,

Raisins, walnuts, orange zest, and almonds go in.

Rin: Stir to distribute evenly.

[All right? This cake tastes horrible! Is this the fault of the baking powder?]

[(Oh, Marilla!)]

Rin: (...Is how that scene went in the story, I think.)

Rin: (I guess things would really go wrong if the baking powder was bad back then.)

Rin: (But I'll be fine. I used good baking powder...)

[170C for 40-50 minutes.]

Rin: Oops, onto the next! (The cherry pie!)

Rin: I mean, I should clean up a little.

Uwah! It's already this late!?

(Crash!)

Rin: Ow!

Page 20

Rin: !

Rin: Uwah...

It's a success!!

Rin: (It rose nicely,

Has a golden brown color, and it smells great!!)

Rin: (It's going well!!!)

Rin: (Alright, let's keep this mood up!

The last obstacle for today!

The layer cake!!)

[Slice the sponge cake into layers and fill with jam and cream.]

(Basically, a shortcake.)

Page 21

Rin: Beat the eggs and sugar over heat over heat for 5 minutes until frothy.

Keep going until fluffy and airy.

[Ideal]

Rin: You can tell when it's finished when the mixture leaves tracks behind... (Or so it says...)

Rin: Huh?

This isn't any good...

Rin: Ehhhh~~?

The egg isn't whipping up at all...

Ryuu: (I thought it'd be any moment now, so I came to check...

But it looks like making sweets is pretty rough...)

Page 22

[20 minutes later.]

Rin: I...

Rin: I did it somehow...?

Rin: Haa... haa....

Rin: Gently mix flour into the whipped eggs using a sifter...

Then add milk to the finished batter and mix again.

Rin: When you put it in the dish, gently hit the bottom of the pan to get out any air bubbles, and put it in the oven.

Rin: Now I'll pour the custard onto the cherry pie I baked earlier,

And line it with cherries.

Page 23

Rin: Once the sponge cake is cooled, decorate it.

Rin: Okay...

Rin: Done!

Ryuu: Rin!!

Rintarou! Over here, in the garden!

Page 24

Ryuu: Let's eat over here!!!

[This is...]

[The picnic menu for traveling to the world of Anne of Green Gables.]

Page 25

[1. Raspberry cordial]

[2. Jam cookie

3. Chocolate cookie]

[4. Dried fruit and nut pound cake]

[5. Layer cake]

[6. Cherry pie]

Ryuu: It...

Ryuu: It's so high quality!! (Amazing!!)

Ryuu: Rintarou...

You really are impressive, huh... (Was this really your first time making these sweets...?)

Rin: Yeah.

Now, what to start with?

Ryuu: Hmm... Anything's fine.

Rin: !

What's that mean, just pick one!

Ryuu: I don't mean it like that.

Page 26

Ryuu: These are the confections you worked hard to make, right?

I'm sure all of them are delicious.

Rin: Then...

The layer cake.

Rin: Here.

Page 27

Rin: Why don't you call it down.

Your revelation or whatever.

Ryuu: Yeah.

Thanks for the food.

Page 29

Ryuu: ......

Ryuu: Rows...

Of apple trees?

[Just when did I get here...]

[Is this exit...

This way?]

Page 30

[An apple tree.]

(That's right.)

(The apple tree in the garden... I planted it when I'd just become an author.)

(A charm)

[To bear fruit]

Page 31

[To all sorts of creative ideas, just like that girl.]

Page 32

Rin: ....?

Rin: (Was it bad...?)

Rin: Ryuunosuke?

Page 33

Ryuu: Mm!

Ryuu: Delicious...!

Rin: Eh?

Ryuu: It's delicious!

All of it's amazingly good!

Rin: R-

Really...?

Ryuu: Really, really!

Ryuu: I just remembered

How I felt when I was just starting as an author...

Page 34

Ryuu: It's all thanks to you, Rintarou!!

Ryuu: It's really wonderful! Thank you!!

(Huh...)

Rin: (Huh?)

Rin: Eh...

Rin: Uh...

Rin: (Huh, what's with that...)

Page 35

Rin: The... job...

Ryuu: ?

Rin: (Just now, he told me "thank you"...

Big bro's gratitude...)

Rin: Well, that job... my work...

Uh, that is...

Rin: (What...

What should I do?!!)

[Man: Takatsuki-kun.

Can't you try serving the customers with more of a smile?]

[Rin: ...

I can't.]

[Ah...

I...]

(This is the first time anyone's been pleased with my work, isn't it....)

Rin: Th...

Rin: ......

Thanks.

Page 36

Rin: !!

Rin: Uwa!

Rin: The wind's picked up, huh.

Should we move back inside? Ryuunosuke.

Page 37

[Oh.

It switched on.]

Page 38

Dad: Isn't that amazing, Rintarou?

Ryuunosuke won a big award for his novel.

Dad: Amazing...

[A 16 year old's break-out work!]

Rin: (Ryuunosuke is...)

(A shut-in with way too much imagination, and he can't acclimate to society...)

(Even so, he's made an incredible amount of people happy.)

(I really...

Wanted to know what I could do, and started doing part-time jobs...)

Page 39

Rin: ...Is it good?

Rin: (I'm still no match for him...

But...)

Ryuu: Hmm?

Ryuu: Oh, yeah...

Rin: (What an absent-minded reply.)

(Making others happy isn't so bad.)

Rin: ...

Uh-huh.

Page 40

[The next day]

Rin: Eh...

What's this "Divine Revelation" on the 27th?!

Ryuu: It's an appointment...

I realized it this time. I need your power.

Rin: You liar!

Don't just decide that on your own, it's a huge pain!

Eh?

Ryuu: For a writer, you know...

You should realize that I need a new revelation one after the other...

[<-A day before the deadline.]

Rin: Wh--

Ryuu: Don't you get it?!

Rin: ......

.....

Rin: I...

Rin: I get it....

Ryuu: (Alright!) I made my appointment. That's one thing off my mind.

Ah, but I'll probably have morning and night switched around by then, so it should be in the evening!

Ryuu: Oh, if I eat too much I'll get tired, so make something light.

Even so, I want something nutritious.

Rin: ......

Ryuu: But if it's hard to digest, my concentration will....

[That was the start of a pain-in-ass event in my regular life.]

SS1.11.3 - Preparation For You

Part 1 Side Story Chapter 11.3

Side Stories

Sougo: Aah, the sea breeze feels so nice......

Sougo: I wasn’t feeling well so I went to bed earlier, but I woke up at a weird time now. I wonder where everyone went?

*thud*

Sougo: Uwa,

Elementary school boy: ......gh, wassaibīn!

Sougo: Eh......?

High school boy: Nda! Kumankaikūwa! ... We are so sorry! Are you alright?

Sougo: I'm fine. Here, you dropped this. This is...... Are you going to play with fireworks?

High school boy: Yes, with our family. Are you sightseeing?

Sougo: I'm here because of my job. I hope I can go sightseeing tomorrow though.

High school boy: I see. Please enjoy your trip in Okinawa. I'm sorry my little brother bumped into you.

High school boy: We'll take our leave now.

Middle school boy: Guburīsabira!

Sougo: Thank you. Be careful, okay?

Sougo: ...... What a polite boy. It would be nice if Tamaki-kun was like that……

Sougo: …… No no no no! I must not compare them! Tamaki-kun is doing his best now.

Sougo: It's natural for me to follow him up since I’m older. I must be firmer.

Tamaki: What are you mumbling about?

Sougo: Hii......!

Tamaki: Are you alright now?

Sougo: I-I'm fine. What are you doing here Tamaki-kun?

Tamaki: Sou-chan, you disappeared so I was looking for you.

Sougo: ..............

Tamaki: Here. Sheー...? Shequasar? I bought it for you. They said it's good for your health. Drink it?

Sougo: ..............

Sougo: ...... He's nice......

Tamaki: Huh?

Sougo: It's nothing. Thank you.

Tamaki: Let's go back already. The sea is scary at night.

Sougo: It's not scary as long as we don't go into the sea.

Tamaki: What if a lot of hands come out?

Sougo: From where?

Tamaki: The sea.

Sougo: Ahaha. That is scary.

Tamaki: I already said that.

Sougo: It would be nice if we brought fireworks though. You could have been excited that way.

Tamaki: You want to play fireworks?

Sougo: I don't know, it just came to my mind.

Sougo: Tamaki-kun, the other side of me isn’t near the sea, you can walk over here instead.

Sougo: If hands really did appear from the sea, I’d be your shield. That way, you won't be scared, right?

Tamaki: I don't wanna. That's even scarier.

Sougo: Eh?

Tamaki: Rather than losing myself, it's scarier when you lose other people. Is it not like that for you?

Sougo: ...... That might be true.

Tamaki: .............. Did you have someone? Someone you lost?

Sougo: ..............

Tamaki: ...... No, I mean, you don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to......

Sougo: Sorry......

Tamaki: ..............

Tamaki: Drink that and get better. Let's go back. And then, when you wake up, make sure that you sleep in the bedroom, okay?

Sougo: Yeah. Sorry for making you worry......... Where is everyone else?

Tamaki: They went somewhere.

Gaku: My bad, Nanase. I pulled you into the room all of sudden.

Riku: No...... Me too, I got the wrong room.

Gaku: But really, I didn't know Tenn was like that. I thought he was just a perfectionist……

Gaku: It's because he flew into this world, to the point of cutting ties with his family, that it makes him so strict towards other people and to himself.

Riku: ...... Did Tenn-nii say anything? About his family......

Gaku: ...... No...... As I said before, he never talked about his private life.

Riku: I see......

Gaku: ..............

Riku: Does he want to forget it all? About me, and our family......

Riku: I wonder if he wants to forget it all.

Gaku: Nanase......

Riku: I don't understand Tenn-nii at all. Through not understanding him, I became unable to understand myself too......

Gaku: Yourself?

Riku: Am I sad because I'm lonely? Am I angry because he left us? Or do I actually just want to apologize to him......

Gaku: Why do you have to apologize?

Riku: ...... I always gave him a lot of trouble.

Gaku: ..............

Gaku: Nanase, were you a delinquent?

Riku: Delinquent!? Do you mean like, doing bad things!? No! I would never do that!

Gaku: I know. You don't look like that kind of person.

Riku: Yaotome-san, were you a delinquent?

Gaku: There's no way. I was an honor student, you know.

Riku: Ohh! So, you only look like a delinquent then!

Gaku: You and Tenn have different types of rudeness, huh.

Riku: I, I'm sorry!

Gaku: Haha....... It's fine. So, this is what they call twins, huh.

Riku: ...... Twins...... They say twins have some sort of telepathy, but it's not like that at all for me......

Riku: I don't get what he’s thinking....... Yaotome-san, do you know?

Gaku: What Tenn is thinking?

Riku: Yes.

Riku: What kind of person is Kujou Tenn from your perspective, Yaotome-san?

Gaku: ..............

Gaku: At the very least, he is a totally different person from the Nanase Tenn you talk about.

Gaku: A gentle boy, that gets weak when being taken care of, and smiles all the time...... I’ve never met that kind of Tenn.

Gaku: Tenn is strong, brave, very strict, and he's not coldhearted, but he never shows any mercy.

Riku: No way......

Gaku: However, I......

Gaku: I like Kujou Tenn better. Rather than the very sweet Nanase Tenn you talked about.

Riku: ..............

Gaku: I wouldn't hate the gentle Tenn, but I don't think I would think of him as special.

Gaku: So, in other words, I don't hate Tenn after all....... Shit. This is pissing me off.

Riku: …… Why are you pissed off?

Gaku: Because your brother is that kind of person. If he found out about this, he would make fun of me with that smug face of his.

Riku: Is that, really Tenn-nii......

Gaku: The Kujou Tenn I know is that kind of person.

Riku: ..............

Riku: Cold, without mercy. I’ve never known that kind of Tenn-nii. He did get angry when he was worried though.

Riku: I wonder what happened...... Did he really change?

Riku: Since he met TRIGGER...... Since he met Yaotome-san and the others......

Gaku: No. He was like that from the start. He wasn’t influenced by anyone.

Riku: Then......

Gaku: The current Tenn is the real Tenn, that's all.

Riku: ..............

Gaku: He only acted nice in front of you. He just wanted to be a good big brother to you.

Riku: Th......, That's wrong! The Tenn-nii that's with me is the real Tenn-nii!

Gaku: No. The current Tenn is the real one. I'm always by his side. There's no way I'm wrong.

Riku: Always by his side......! Don't brag about it, please!

Gaku: I'm not bragging!! It's not like I'm always with him because I like it!

Riku: But you just said that you like him!

Gaku: I just said that if we compare him with the past Tenn! If I compare him with Ryuu then it's Ryuu >>> impassable wall >>> Tenn!

Riku: That's cruel......!! Yaotome-san, you always make fun of Tenn-nii, right?!!

Gaku: I never make fun of him......!! It's him who always makes fun of me!!

Riku: Tenn-nii would never do that! He's as gentle as an angel, and very kind, even when he said no, if I ask nicely he would always allow me to......

Gaku: That, is that really Tenn......? You aren't being influenced by some drama?

Riku: It's real......!!

Gaku: Ah, I know. It's him, right? The violinist role that appeared this year......

Riku: The Tenn-nii I know is the original!!

Riku: ......gh, cough cough......

Gaku: Oi, are you ok? You're a singer, so take care of your throat properly.

Gaku: Here, water.

Riku: Thank you very much......

Riku: Yaotome-san. You look like a delinquent but you're very nice......

Gaku: This twin is so noisy, huh.

Gaku: ...... Nanase.

Riku: Yes.

Gaku: If you became an idol because of Tenn, don't you want to sing with him?

Riku: ..............

Riku: If I say I wanted to, would Tenn-nii do it for me?

Gaku: ..............

Gaku: I wouldn’t let him. He's our center after all.

Riku: ...... You’re bragging about him after all......

Gaku: I’m not, duh.

Nagi: Freedom......!! Finally, we are released from the scolding!

Tenn: You want to move on to the second round?

Yamato: Stupid Nagi, shut up!! No, no! It's already enough Kujou! It really went through our bones!

Mitsuki: It felt more like it went straight to our insides...... But thanks to you we feel better now!

Mitsuki: Thanks, Kujou!

Iori: .............. Why......

Tenn: What?

Iori: Why do you care so much?

Iori: We're from different agencies, you should have minded your own business......

Mitsuki: Hey, Iori! He gave us advice, you know!

Tenn: I didn't do it for you all. It was for your fans.

Tenn: And, as an idol, you annoyed me.

Iori: ...... Is it because I made a mistake?

Tenn: That's not it. You were standing on the stage, but you forgot about the audience.

Iori: ..............

Tenn: Anyone can make mistakes. First of all, a mistake is not always bad.

Tenn: What's important is, how to recover from it.

Iori: Recover……

Tenn: Yeah. You didn't recover. Even though you have your fans waiting for you.

Iori: ..............

Yamato: Kujou's saying the right thing. But these guys are still young. It's natural for them to get upset after making mistakes......

Iori: What should I do, so that I don't get upset?

Yamato: Ichi……

Iori: Please tell me.

Tenn: It's to be aware.

Iori: About what?

Tenn: About your task. About what's expected from you.

Iori: ..............

Tenn: Even if you made 100 mistakes, there's someone who would be happy by just seeing you smile.

Tenn: Even if you had 100 weak points, there's someone who would be saved with your one strong point.

Tenn: You don't have to be a perfect human who can bury those 100 weak points. That's not a human, just a robot.

Tenn: Do what only you can do. Make sure that those who love you are happy with your own way.

Iori: ...... What only I can do......

Tenn: Yeah.

Tenn: That time, it was so obvious how upset you were. Even when Riku laughed, no matter who laughed, it wouldn't erase the fans' uneasiness.

Tenn: It was only your smile that could have changed the mood in the studio that time. That could have reassured the fans.

Iori: ..............

Mitsuki: ...... Isn't it enough already? It wasn't just Iori's fault. We also......

Tenn: Of course. You couldn't follow this boy up until he could laugh that time.

Tenn: You were just comforting him because he made a mistake. You should reflect on that.

Mitsuki: Yes......

Nagi: OH...... I thought the scolding was over......

Tenn: I'm sorry that it sounded like a scolding.

Tenn: I just wanted to tell you. A mistake is not something you should be afraid of. Being afraid of making mistakes, is what you should be afraid of.

Tenn: Compared to success, a mistake impacts our hearts more. If our hearts are captivated, our bodies will feel as heavy as a stone.

Tenn: However, you must not forget how to fly.

Iori: ...... Kujou-san......

Tenn: Don't lose your courage. Those who laughed at your mistake, can be happy whenever anyone makes mistakes.

Tenn: Those who are happy because of your success...... You're the only one who can make them happy.

Tenn: That's where your task is. Whenever it is, don't forget to always hold on to it.

Nagi: OH...... It rings in my heart. It's enough. Thank you for the meal.

Tenn: You just want the scolding to end, right?

Nagi: That is not really incorrect.

Tenn: Haha...... How honest.

Nagi: Kujou-shi, why do you think like that?

Tenn: It's just from my experiences. Just like children, the more we fell, the faster we stood up.

Mitsuki: Kujou, did you also have times when you made a lot of mistakes?

Tenn: Of course.

Mitsuki: Seriously!?

Tenn: Even now I'm still under pressure. Who do you think have been singing beside me?

Yamato: Yaotome and Tsunashi-san...... You really appreciate those two, huh.

Tenn: Well, yeah.

Mitsuki: So Kujou can also make mistakes too. Hearing that, kinda makes me feel rest assured......

Iori: ...... Thank you for your advice, I am going to use it as my references from now on.

Tenn: Yeah.

Iori: And, someday, I will show you that we can surpass TRIGGER.

Iori: Because I think, that's how we can make our fans happy.

Tenn: .............

Tenn: Suit yourself.

Ryuunosuke: Ahaha! You got better at speaking in formal speech, huh.

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: I learned it from my part-time job. I also learned it from watching Nii-san on TV.

Ryuunosuke: I see...... It feels a bit awkward speaking with you like this.

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: Haha...... Speaking about awkward, can I talk about other awkward things?

Ryuunosuke: Ah...... Ok.

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: Our youngest brother is worried. What if Nii-san got stolen by people there, just like our mother was?

Ryuunosuke: .............

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: I understand that you're there because of your job.

Ryuunosuke: ...... How silly. I'm our father's son, and your big brother, you know?

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: But, you're saying different things on TV?

Ryuunosuke: .............

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: Sorry...... We're just worried. Nii-san, you're not good at lying, so we thought you were having a hard time there.

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: You don't have to worry about us. We're proud we have a big brother in TRIGGER.

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: ...... I'm already use to being asked if I’m also sexy too......

Ryuunosuke: ...... You got asked that?

Ryuunosuke's younger brother: Nope, I'm fine. Let's talk about other things, I'm tired of it!

Ryuunosuke: .............

Ryuunosuke: ...... I can't stay like this, huh.

To be continued......

"Ah, I know. It's him, right? The violinist role that appeared this year......" Gaku was most likely trying to say that Riku probably got influenced by a drama about a violinist who was very kind and believes that Riku was mixing the character up with Tenn since he couldn’t believe Tenn was actually this kind (lol)
