okay but I would love your thoughts on what the boys reactions are when flatmate! matty and you finally get together!!

like obviously they wouldn't be shocked, I imagine they even had a bet on but I would love if just one of them was genuinely flabbergasted. in my mind it's ross bc he just seems oblivious and takes mattys incessant "we're just close mates!!!" seriously bc him and matty are just close mates so why wouldn't you be?

I imagine you invite them all over and matty makes them sit down and you go make tea and coffee for everyone. you bring it in and sit next to matty and go "okay so we have some news-" and matty is just so fucking excited he interrupts you and just goes "WE'RE DATING SHES MY GIRLFRIEND AND WE'RE IN LOVE" and you're like "babe!!! woah!!! give the men a second to breath!! (but i love you too that was very sweet)" The immediate reaction is a groan from George, a smile from Adam and a completely shocked face from Ross. at first matty is like "George??? that's the worst reaction ever?? you're meant to be my best mate and-" George just cuts him off and goes "matty I am really happy for you but couldn't you have got together literally a week later? now I adam £20." this causes him and Adam to burst out laughing whilst you and matty just sit there shocked (Ross is also shocked but that's because he still hasn't processed that you're together lol)

Ross eventually says "...but you always said you were just mates???" and Adam is like "Ross love, seriously did you see them in bed together cuddling? or how about when they dance in the kitchen together when they make breakfast and tea for eachother? or when matty hears her sniffle once and goes bat shit crazy and gets 200 tissues and loads of cough sweets? it was pretty fucking clear those two idiots were head over heels!" the whole time they've been looking at eachother during this convo so Ross looks over to you two for confirmation of this shocking turn of events and just sees you staring longingly into eachothers eyes and he's like "fucking hell have they always looked at eachother like that?" and adam and George just do a slow nod and Ross says "god I'm stupid"

aaaaaaaah this shit is SO CUTE. kind of obsessed with the idea that adam's the first to know/notice that you and matty are in love with each other actually - like because he's so easy to talk to and kind, both you and matty inadvertently end up just letting your guards down a bit and gushing about the other to adam. and he doesn't say anything to either of you about how the other feels, he just does a classic adam hann knowing look (you know the vibe) and waits to see how long it'll take one of you to admit it. and then adam and george are chatting in rehearsal one day and you and matty are being cute with each other in the corner (fuck knows where ross is... off somewhere being sexy as per usual probs), and george nudges adam and goes "look at the pair of them" and he tells adam about how domestic the two of you are at home and that he had said you were like a married couple. adam's like "they've both been pining for the other to me for years its insane. maybe now you've said something they'll realise and get together now. i bet it'll happen this weekend". george is like "hmmm no they're both too stubborn to admit it so soon. give it another week to sink in" and they literally put a bet on it lmao. but i don't even think it's like a planned reveal when they find out you and matty are together, i think the boys are just over at the flat chilling and you and matty kiss in front of them (like how you used to do head kisses, just a casual kiss on the lips as you pass each other) and the boys are like WHAT WAS THAT and matty's like "oh yeah we're a thing now turns out we've been in love with each other for a while lol. but now it's official" and then the exchange about the bet happens, like you said. ross really is in shock though - he's like "i've played wingman for both of you so many times??? you were in love with each other and living in the same flat and i was wingmanning you so you could take other people home???" and matty's like "yeah lol we both literally just realised on saturday night that it was requited love". and ross thinks for a minute and goes "wait i literally wingmanned you on saturday night WTF???" and you're like "yeah and then he came in to ask me for a condom and decided he wanted to shag me instead lol" and matty's like "babe please it was making love not shagging" and the boys are like "ok we're happy for you but please shut the fuck up now" lmao <3

Chapter 9

Word count: 1627

\/\/

So Hwa-Young always stands in the kitchen and watches as the food cooks. No matter if it'll take 3 hours for it to cook, she staying there watching it.

~~~~~~~~~~

Arthur was quite annoyed that he's roomie won't come cuddle him and instead chooses to stand in the cafeteria kitchen and watch as the food cooks.

𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘴𝘰 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘥?

Some food taking his crush's attention away from him? Ain't happening on his watch.

Waltzing into the kitchen, he processeds to try every method in the book to get her to come to back to the lounge with him, his patience wearing thinner at every failure.

He pokes and probs at Hwa-Young, the latter remaining ever so indifferent.

She insisted that he go back to what he was doing instead of wasting his precious time pestering her, she said all of this with her back turned to him, facing the stove. It infuriated Arthur how she hadn't even looked at him once.

Giving up, he pouts, crossing his arms and huffing. Mumbling "Why do you even do this anyway? "

Making her finally look at him.

Arthur cheered internally at this.

◡̈⋆ⓎⒶⓎ!(*´∇')ﾉ 𝘚𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘦.

Hwa-Young pretended to not hear the sudden increase in his heart beats.

Being able to hear ones heart beat is an ability she never told anyone, only one person knows about this ability, Seongik Han, her old man.

She mainly never tells her allies about this for the fear of them suddenly avoiding her.

She hates the fact that she has grown soft to people she's better off not trusting.

But there's not much left to do now, feelings don't just vanish away. Lying seems like the safest option for her heart, even if it kinda makes her feel a bit guilty for some unknown reason.

"You really wanna know? " She quirked a brow, loosely crossing her arms over her chest. The fabric of her hoodie wrinkling up.

"Of course I wanna fucking know. " He huffed with a pout, still upset. Untangling his arms, he lays his hands on the counter behind him, using them as support to lean back a bit as Hwa-Young went beside him and also leaned back on the counter.

Turning his head towards Hwa-Young, he moved his chin to motion her to explain herself.

Hwa-Young sighs and rubs her temple. Getting the feeling that he won't leave her alone until she elaborates.

"Well, way before old man took me in, when I was about 9 I think? I used to survive on my own. I used to speak Arabic back then. Why? I don't fucking know. I didn't remember where I was from or why I was alone.

I survived by either begging or stealing.

Child me really had strong sense of morality. So, I was rather hesitant about stealing.

One day I finally went 'fuck it' and stole something.

I almost got caught with how slow I was which wasn't surprising considering I haven't eaten shit in the past three days.

What I stole was a pack of instant ramen.

I lived or more like hid in an abandoned building at that time. And luckily the stove was still functioning and there were a few pots.

Reading the instructions was the hardest part, honestly. It was in Korean and at that time my Korean was a bit rusty.

By following what was written on the packaging I let it cook and went to sit down in another room.

That other room had an old sofa and with how tried I was, I just couldn't resist the temptation to laying down.......That was the first mistake.

After laying down fatigue hit me like a truck and I didn't even realize when I fell asleep.

That was the second and biggest mistake.

When I had woken up there was smoke everywhere. Remembering the pot on the stove I rushed to the kitchen and in my hurry and panic, instead of turning off the stove stupid dumb little me lifted the pot with my bare hands.

I got second degree burns from that. When I realized that I had just touched it without oven mitts or anything protecting my hand. I kinda panicked again and dropped it, making it fall to the floor and also give my feet 2nd degree burns in the process. How fun. "

She lifted her hands to show him the marks he had always been confused and asking about.

Arthur's eyes widened, he could still see the faded scars. He raised his hand to lightly graze it against her faded scars. He took her hand in his, wearing an unreadable expression.

Hwa-Young tried tugging her hand out of his grasp, wearing a blank yet flushed expression.

But he had no plans of letting her go so easily, she eventually gave up, looking somewhere other than his face, hiding her face that was raising in temperature.

Arthur smirked evilly, amused at her cute attempts to mask her shyness.

Caressing her hand with his thumb, his expression turning soft, an almost sad smile on his lips.

"I-I was coughing and crying like crazy. I felt like shit. The food was nothing but ashes. I had nothing to eat.

I really wanted to cry more but I didn't. At that point of life I realized that crying never fixes shit.

So, I wiped my tears not really caring how it stung my burns.

I suffered two more days of starvation before an old grandma offered to cook for me if I cleaned her house. The grandma I later ran away from.

So, lesson learned. Always watch the food as it cooks. "

After finishing her story she expected him to go back to his room but instead was surprised when he wrapped his arms around her.

Her eyes widening, cheeks becoming red.

She hated how this was making her heart race, not understanding what she should do with her hands that were awkwardly hanging off to the side she settled with awkwardly running her hand up and down his back.

Little did they, they were being watched by a certain someone.

That certain someone clenched his fists in rage and jealousy, muttering something under his breath as his crimson eyes bore into the raven head.

\/\/

"Was it you who suggested the idea to Mr. And Mrs. Bryan? " Hwa-Young spoke in a monotonous voice, her expression pointed.

Arthur could be seen nervously looking around on the other end.

"Well.....it wasn't really me who brought it up and it seemed like my opinion didn't matter. And marrying you doesn't really sound that bad. "

"Does it really mean anything to you? " Hwa-Young questioned with a monotonous look to mask her desperation. She's feels lost, she, herself doesn't even know what she is desperate for.

"Does it mean anything to YOU?"

Arthur dodged the question, instead answering it with another question.

"Do you want it to mean anything? "

She retorted, using an eraser to roughly erase the wrong answers she had written on her notebook. With a troubled expression she kept roughly rubbing the eraser against the paper, eventually tearing the paper. She put her head down on the table and let out a defeated sigh.

"Ok, this is just confusing. If you don't want it to happen then just say it. " Arthur stated in a frustrated tone.

Don't get him wrong, he wasn't annoyed at Hwa-Young, he was just upset at the possibility that she might not want to be with him.

He was confused with the things she was saying.

He sighed, bringing a hand up to rub the back of his neck.

"Hwa-Young, you don't have to talk about it right now. We can talk once your ready." He said with the ghost of a smile on his lips.

Hwa-Young peaked from underneath her white lashes, wearing an apologetic smile.

"I'm sorry for wasting your time like this. "

"Nah, it's okay. "

"So, you agree that I was wasting your time? (￣へ￣凸" Hwa-Young inquired, sitting up straight, her arms crossed over her chest and a pout on her lips.

"Wait! That's not what I meant-" Arthur rushed to defend himself, raising both his arms in front of him.

"Nah, I'm just messing with you. " Hwa-Young assured, biting her lower lip to stifle her giggles, wincing when she put too much pressure on the cut.

"How'd your lip get busted?"

"Well, I was playing a rhythm game and things kinda got intense and..... Yeah.. "

Hwa-Young shrugged both her shoulders.

"Why do you torture your oh-so-kissable lips that I would absolutely love to suck on? Why? " Arthur blurted out, his eyes widening when he realized what he just said.

"What? Σ(゜゜)" Hwa-Young was shell shocked.

"What? Σ(゜゜)" Arthur was embarrassed.

Not being able to face her anymore, Arthur abruptly ended the video call.

He just wants to bash his head into the wall at this point.

[just mine.] a shinwaka smut

[he wants him and him only.]

↳ MINORS DNI, a request from ao3 that was commented on 00:00! [planbsurvivior7] if you see this on both tumblr and ao3, here's your request!

↳ lowercase intended, no proofread, and idk why i'm writing this...i'm prob bored.

shinichiro tapped his leg as he watched his lover talk with a blue-haired male, and it ticked him off by how they talked so casually. he keeps glaring at the boy, but the victim didn't notice it, nor wakasa. they were by the shop, wakasa helping out in customer service, and his service was far beyond kind. benkei and takeomi were helping too, organizing some files in the office.

the ravenette was tinkering up a harley-davidson cruise, looks old and the engine was broken. he watched them in the corner of his eyes, his process stopping and slowing down.

wakasa knew this, and he was trying to make him jealous. the albino was a very beautiful boy, and everything from his voice to his face can make everyone fall in love with him. he then glanced at shinichiro, smirking before continuing to flirt with the customer who owned the bike. shinichiro said that it'll not take a while to fix the engine, so the customer waited for it.

the lilac-eyed then leaned forward over the counter, his white shirt drooping to show his feminine-like body. the blue-haired male gulped, staring.

"that bike you have is pretty cool," wakasa said, his voice seductive. "a harley-davidson cruise?"

"a-ah yeah," the customer said, looking up into wakasa's lazy eyes. he then smiled, leaning closer towards the male.

"tell me more about the bike, akio," his name rolled out wakasa's mouth perfectly, and that made him slightly blush.

"um, about the bike-"

"mr. kyojuro," shinichiro butted in. he then stood up and gave the keys to the male, who stuttered taking it. "all good to go. thanks for coming."

"a-ah thank you!" the male bowed at them, then took his bike and exited the shop, face red. wakasa smiled as he watched the male leave, while shinichiro was quite pissed.

"what were you doing?" shinichiro glared at his lover.

"just entertaining a guest, shin-chan," his lilac orbs then met his raven pair, and he can see the jealousy he was feeling. perfect.

"come with me," shinichiro then grabbed his wrist and dragged him towards the back room. he then shouted for the others in the office can hear, "guys, i'll just get something upstairs! please take care of the shop!"

"you got it!" takeomi's voice was heard by the walls, and wakasa looked at shinchiro with a smile on his face. my plan is going well.

they then reached the apartment they share, shinichiro immediately opening the door and pushing wakasa in by the wrist, then closing it shut and pinning the albino by the door.

"you," shinichiro said in a low voice. "do you want me to make you not walk for weeks?"

"why, certainly," wakasa wrapped his arms around shinichiro's neck, pulling him tight.

"strip."

"what?"

"strip," shinichiro then walked away from him. "I'll get some lube and handcuffs."

"I'm sorry...WHAT?!"

"or you want a sex harness?" shinichiro looked back, stopping in his tracks.

"handcuffs are fine."

"good. by the time i'm back, you should be naked."

it took a few minutes for shinichiro to come back, and his eyes were blessed with the view of wakasa naked, sitting on the floor with legs open wide, his back arch to the front and his elbows resting on his knees. the ravenette then went towards him and kneeled down, taking wakasa's wrists and handcuffing them. he then entered his arms, their faces close to one another. wakasa climbed up shinichiro's lap, wiggling himself. shinichiro smirked, pulling him closer to him by the waist.

"i won't be gentle with you," he warned. 'I'm jealous and you know what i do with you when i am."

wakasa gulped, this isn't what expecting. shinichiro's gaze was cold, piercing his naked body. the ravenette took his head and pushed his lips towards his roughly, forcing him to open up. wakasa obeyed as he opened his mouth slowly, feeling shinichiro's tongue dance with his. they stayed like that for a while, then broke up to catch some air.

without any stop, shinichiro applied his mouth onto one of wakasa's nipples, then wrapped his fingers on his member and jerked it hard. wakasa tried to stifle a moan, biting his lower lips as the sensations came and never stopped. shinichiro was very rough at this point, but wakasa liked it that way.

"I-i," wakasa mumbled. "I'm gonna-huh?"

again?

shinichiro then blew on the small nub and moved his hand away, then caressing the albino's back with care. he picked him up, wakasa's legs wrapped around his hips, and carried him to the room, with the bottle in his jean pocket.

"let's take this to the bedroom," shinichiro said, which made wakasa look at him, his hands still handcuffed.

"excuse me?"

"what?" shinichiro halted and looked back at wakasa's purple orbs.

"you have a shop to manage down there?" wakasa furrowed his eyebrows. shinichiro continued walking.

...

"hey," takeomi tapped his finger onto the counter, his face propped onto his open palm. "aren't they going down yet?"

"oh c'mon," benkei came back with a box in his arms. "you think he'll just get something? in their apartment?"

"oh right," takeomi grimaced. "but can they not at least, take their precious time?"

"you think."

...

shinchiro closed the door with his foot and immediately threw him and wakasa in the bed, his arms caging him from the side, making the younger one submissive and controlled.

he then let their mouths meet and dance downing afternoon, the sunset being played behind the closed curtains. the room was beginning to darken, and shinichiro didn't even bother opening the lampshade beside the bed. the handcuffs were irritating to wakasa, and he tried to take them off by wriggling his wrists, the cold chains falling on shinichiro's nape. the ravenette knew that wakasa hated his hands tied but shinichiro wanted to be the only one under control, and remind him that he's only his and his only.

just after the kiss, shinichiro's lips then met with wakasa's neck, as his hands slowly but firmly explored the bottom's body, making wakasa squirm and whine under him. shinichiro very much liked what he was hearing.

he then lift his upper body, as he kneeled between wakasa's legs. he then took his wrists and linked them with the handcuffs attached to the bed rails, making wakasa a bit more uncomfortable than before. he watched as the albino slightly complain, his body wiggling and his wrists trying to be free from the handcuffs. shinichiro's eyes were by his erection, and that small little member entice him to do something.

wakasa's eyes then opened wide when he felt shinichiro's mouth meet his member, his whole body shaking from the feeling. whatever shinichiro's doing with his mouth down there is making wakasa feel ecstatic, him seeing stars.

"I-i'm gonna," wakasa's eyes rolled to the back of his head, his mouth open and saliva dripping from the side of his mouth. he then released, feeling shinichiro swallowed by his member. a pop was heard when he removed his mouth, white fluid dripping by shinichiro's mouth. his lilac eyes then met his, half-lidded abyss orbs staring at him with lust. that's gonna make him hard again.

"should we stop here?" shinichiro went back to his position before. "I don't want you to overstimulate."

"and you think i don't want you to fuck me carelessly?" wakasa smirked. "what, commander?"

"call me commander and I'll fuck the brains out of you," shinichiro then unbuttoned his short-sleeved button-up and threw it on the floor, following his jeans and boxers. wakasa's eyes lay on his member, amazed by how big he is. saw that so many times but that still amazed him. shinichiro popped open a purple translucent bottle and squeezed the contents on his palm, closing it and throwing it somewhere in the bed. he coated his member, the same hand guiding himself inside. his other hand took wakasa's leg and rested it on his shoulder, shinichiro's upper body leaning over a little bit.

wakasa's eyes dilated and his whole body quivered when he entered with ease, screams and moans coming out of his pretty mouth. shinichiro's hips snapped with his, his thrusts were deep and rough. vanilla was never a thing for them.

the two enjoyed every second and every deep thrust, the room filled with sounds of flapping and snapping. wakasa then clawed his fingers on shinichiro's arms, his composure slowly melting.

"s-shin-chan," wakasa moaned. "mo-more, there ♡ I'm gonna cum-"

"me too," shinichiro whispered, his thrusts sloppy and unsynchronized. "feels so good..."

for the second time, wakasa's eyes rolled back, as shinichiro went faster, chasing their nearing peak. and like a bomb, they exploded, with wakasa's fluids spurting on his stomach while shinichiro filled him up. shinichiro then flopped himself on top of wakasa, with his arms wrapping around wakasa's waist. they stayed like that for a few minutes, chasing their high.

"i think omi is mad at us."

"that old guy was never mad at us."

...

"IT'S BEEN TWO HOURS!" takeomi screamed.

LONG ask ahead, sorry T^T

*arrives in a hurry after 2-3 days* *slow, appreciative clap at the ted talk* sweetie, have you got any idea how much i adore hearing you ramble about the creation process??? seeing the whole love and dedication you hold for the odyssey makes my day! (and nooo, i'm totally not reading it again bc i want to have all of it in mind for tomorrow and bc it inspires me to no end hahaha what do you mean :) )

here comes yet another question: what kind of powers do you possess to write so beautifully. your writing literally punches me in the gut every single time, even the simplest of things!! it's hauntingly beautiful and i'm living for it!

(and another one) how did you find out how the odyssey was going to end?

also, it's rambling time because i've been thinking. (i do that sometimes.) each chapter title is a reference to a greek myth, and, in particular, odysseus' myth (no clue if i've written his name right, i've always knew him as "ulysse" in my mother tongue ^^;). and so my brain went: oooh nice, greek lore ^^ and then: yo wait. hold up. which brings me here: analysing the chapter titles. (bear with me please, and feel free to ignore my enthusiastic rambling/correct me if i'm wrong which i probs will)

so first, we have the prelude. david and calypso. while i'm sure david has his importance it's almost 1 am as i'm typing this so i'm going to focus on calypso. poor nymph is stuck in an island because of the will of gods for a reason i've forgotten. but here's the catch: while she cannot leave, others can come to her (good ol' odysseus for instance) until they leave her all alone again. and the cycle unfolds again and again. which brings us to a nice parallel with reader's situation at the beginnig. she, after all, is stuck on an island with no way out but stories. comes the dilf supreme toji aka an odysseus of sorts, until he leaves her. so she's alone again. calypso there illustrates a passive state of sorts. she cannot leave, or so she thinks: while she wants to, we don't see her try per se until sukuna comes in.

ah yes. sukuna’s arrival. chapter title: neptune’s hands. Neptune, god of the seas, all powerful, also known as Poseidon absolutely terrifying if provoked — which is something Odysseus did! well, man is smart enough not to do it to his face. but he did stab a cyclope, which happened to be neptune’s son. son who swore to a haughty Odysseus that he’d pay for it. in consequence: instead of going back to Ithaca without that much of trouble, Neptune goes: nope mate, and promptly sabotage his return (with a storm who leads his ship astray if my memory is correct). Neptune serves as a catalyst in here, to properly start the action. and it so happens to be sukuna’s role! he is, as well, the one who starts reader’s journey — well, odyssey in this case ;) — by making her this offer. plus, if we consider reader as being calypso, a nymph, and sukuna as being Neptune, a god, it shows their difference in power. sukuna is a fearsome curse, captain whose name is enough to strike fear in the cruellest pirate, who can and will kill reader should he get bored of her. reader is but a printer’s apprentice, so weak compared to him it hurts.

ah, yes. the narcissus pool aka siren gojo, aka me simping so hard for this man I might squirt with the mere mention of him. yes, siren gojo is that powerful, feel free to lure me in with them baby blues sweetie *blows him a kiss* hem. anyway. long story short, an oracle said: if narcissus sees his reflection, he’ll die. people prevent him from seeing himself. ofc man is so handsome it hurts and has women and men alike running after him, including a nymph named echo. he rejects her. hera is somehow involved in the mess and makes it so that he stumbles upon a river and sees himself. entranced by his beauty, he desperately tries to reach himself and stays near the river until he dies. this one is a bit trickier (especially considering I’m writing this as I go with no coherent preparation whatsoever but damn if I’m not having fun). but. *proceeds to read it again* *sighs in ‘why the hell ain’t siren!gojo real pls sir take me’* anyway. it’s never mentioned in narcissus’ myth, but I’m pretty sure he was tempted to look at himself. at least once, considering he could wonder why on earth all those people kept falling for his looks. (or he could be pretty dumb. let’s say he isn’t) so he’s tempted by his own reflection. just like reader’s tempted to follow segsy siren gojo. he doesn’t up until hera is involved and ends up seeing his reflection. he falls. not literally, but in love — with his own self. here it’s different (and the reason why i’m strugglingTM to gather coherent thoughts). gojo is the very embodiment of this temptation — so he acts as narcissus’ reflection here. he’s the one seducing reader, the one luring her until she falls in the waters, just like narcissus did. she didn’t die though, unlike him. (thank you sukuna. I guess. yes I would’ve given my life for gojo to consume me in both ways and??) now, this is very simp-tainted (sorry bout that ^^;) and the thing I’ve noticed is this: narcissus isn’t a character in the og odyssey. could it be bc to my absolute despair, gojo’s not as much of an important character as sukuna and toji? only you know!

(the hades, psyche analysis comes in tomorrow *looks @ time* *sees it's 1 AM* well, later on! have a lovely night/day!)

- the LRE (who's very happy tumblr allowed her to do paragraph breaks/to have a pirate history book recommandation! thanks about that one btw, it'll come in handy for a ff of mine (yeah it involves pirate gojo))

wait this is so precious n thoughtful oh my gosh 😭 thoughts n vibes under the cut :’)

first of all THANK U!!!??? ur making me blush out here omg my hEART 😭

as for ur first question, ur SO SWEET n IM LOSING IT bye i genuinely don’t know i just scream and throw a bunch of commas and metaphors everywhere and somehow things happen 💀 i read a lot (english major vibes) and it’s very helpful because i tend to imitate writers/phrases/books that inspire me while i'm figuring out how i want to write !!

secondly: how did i figure out the ending of the odyssey??

answer: i think i just stumbled across this one 😭 i was brainstorming w my bestie (@/suedebunn) n she originally suggested a different version of the ending that i was like “oh wait” and then i played with it for awhile until i arrived at the version i have now ! i want to tell u more about how i arrived from point A to point B and what the process was but i will withhold because i am not giving anything away >:)

onto ur TITLE ANALYSIS!! this is SPECTACULAR! ur pretty much on the nose for all of them god damn i don’t have much to add :’) i’ll give u some of my takes tho!!

david and calypso – ur absolutely on the nose for the calypso aspect; david’s just a passing nod to the pirates of the caribbean portrayal of davy jones and the doomed relationship between him and calypso (mirroring the doomed relationship between toji and reader since he leaves them)

neptune’s hands – yes! yeah! sexy! pirate sukuna is being compared to a sea god!! also a minor teaser but sukuna’s hands are important symbolically ;-)

narcissus pool – ur brain is so big here god damn 🤲 narcissus is more of a loose reference to the idea of pride/ temptation and also hollowness/mirages (the emptiness of a reflection versus the tangibility of the real thing) so it’s not immediately a reference to the odyssey itself or even the myth (i'm taking creative liberties bye homer) but probably the best entity to use when describing gojo – the dichotomy between pride/emptiness is a lot more apparent in part 5

gosh thank u sm for this!! excited to see what u have next!!!!!!
