This is my zonai oc, Tohma! She was once an oracle of Rauru and Sonia before the events of TOTK. She went mad after seeing the fate of the kingdom through her visions multiple times with no sign of change. She eventually ran away after a misunderstanding between her and the royal court, becoming a hermit in the process.
More information about her is down below! Warning for spoilers for TOTK. It's also a lengthy read.
Gender: Female
Age: 27 (in hylian years)
Height: 7'0"
Personality: Humble, Nervous, Confident (to an extent), Jumpy, Easygoing, Mischievous 
Secret stone: Stone of Future Sight (Symbol based on the kanji meaning "see")
General info: Running away from a broken home, Tohma grew up in the wilderness of Hyrule (before it became established as Hyrule). Tohma was born with the ability to see into the future. At a young age, she saw misty visions of zonai falling one by one, along with other small instances that made her jittery. Despite of that, she did her best to keep her head up high, even if things looked grim.
As an adult, she believed she was the last of her kind and wandered around different locations to make what she could with her life. Eventually, she was found by Rauru and Sonia and the two took her to their castle. She joined their royal court as their oracle. Along with becoming an oracle, she was given a stone of her own, and it helped amplify her visions.
However, when Tohma looked into the future with the stone in hand, she saw the fall of the kingdom. Terrified, she immediately notified the couple of the kingdom's fall and started to look into other futures/solutions to deter the outcome. She became obsessed with changing the future, to the point her mental health took a heavy toll and she became a hazard to everyone. At one point, an intervention for Tohma was to be held, but she ran away before it ever happened. In her paranoid state, she took this as a sign they were going to lock her away. She became a hermit in her final years, waiting and praying that her visions never come true (sadly, they did).
Abilities
Future Vision:
Her visions were almost a guarantee. There was always a slim chance of the outcome being different, which tend to give Tohma some hope for a different outcome.
Thanks to the stone, she could see years into the future and get a better general estimate in when they will happen
She uses her visions in combat, making it easier to dodge/plan attacks. However, due to these being a quick insight, they are not as accurate as putting her full focus into a vision. It was used to have a general feel and idea of what may happen/what is to come during a fight.
Her third eye opens whenever she looks into the future.
Puppetry:
Along with her future vision, Tohma also had a puppetry ability. She was more attuned to her visions than her puppetry, hence not being affected by her stone. Her puppetry was zonai magic based.
With her puppetry ability, she was able to pull and throw small objects towards her or anyone and control constructs. Because this ability wasn't amplified, the ability required full body involvement when used on a construct (when she moves, the construct in her control copies her exact movement. Ex: if she points with her right hand, the construct's right hand does the same)
This ability can also work on disembodies zonai parts and can act as extra set of limbs
Her hands would glow a bright teal color (like Rauru's) whenever this ability was in use. Small zonai runes would appear next to the object being controlled. these runes would look like strings and would fade out as they went towards Tohma (on a construct, each body part would have a "string")
Notes:
She ran away with her stone. At some point, she avoided using it and seeing into the future as much as possible, seeing her future sight as a curse.
Tohma puppetry ability was found out by Mineru when looking out a window and seeing/hearing a steward construct in distress from Tohma controlling it. From there, Mineru would make a battle construct for Tohma to use her ability on. (design is a WIP for now)
Before her puppetry ability was found out, she would secretly mess with the constructs, dancing with them
Despite being an the royal court's Oracle, Tohma had experience in combat. It was mainly used for self defense or when needed. Her weapons of choice would be her fists, legs, and zonai spear. She would also use her construct in combat.
Her confidence is mainly a façade to keep herself from spiraling into anxiety/from losing hope. Basically a "fake it till you make it" type of deal.
She eventually dies from a broken heart, becoming a spirit who constantly weeps and morns for the kingdom.
An alternative ending for her is after the Imprisoning War, she falls into a chasm and swallows her stone, not wanting to live with the memories and visions that haunt her. She becomes a dragon that roams solely in the depths below.
As a hermit, her voice becomes raspy from constantly crying and screaming.
She tends to shoo off any unwanted visitors as a hermit but should one attempt to stay, she would let them
In her loneliness, she would control a broken construct and have "conversations" with it

Crush list in order of happening, game and onwards;
Princess Sonia. Like, obvi true love!! No one else compares ever!!
Hajime but like a bro crush tho! There's nothing wrong with appreciating your homies sick pecs and kind and understanding nature and being heartbroken when you think they betrayed you! .... shit.
Nagito?
Nagito? DEFINITELY not Nagito.
Chiaki, who doesnt love a cute gamer girl?? Computers are just machines! Pink buddies!
NOT Fuyuhiko that's for sure.
Ibuki has a charm. But what if she's more punk than me D:
DEFINITELY not Gundham.
Peko. She's hot! Also kind of sweet if you unlock that watermelon scene.
Peko well. ... would have been weird after getting to know Fuyuhiko anyway.
Akane! Also hot! A little scary too but I mean hey that can be a bonus!
On that note, Nekomaru; there ACTUALLY is nothing wrong with appreciating the insanely buff bro that partakes in hijinks with you. Like, objectively.
Ibuki oh.
Not Mikan.
Ok yeah Fuyuhiko. Only because he's blonde and pretty and a good human shield and needs someone to visit him in the hospital.
Nekomaru well...

Ooh, can I ask for some headcanons for Hiyoko Saionji, Ibuki Mioda, & Sayaka Maizono (/Sonia Nevermind) My lesbian heart just love love LOVES them ❤️❤️
Sayaka Maizona
Tumblr media
Sayaka loved her groupmates, but there was one specific groupmate that she loved a little bit differently than others. That groupmate was you. You were one of the new members, and you were brash, and childish, but that was part of your charm.
Many fans had dubbed you as a tsundere, and Sayaka couldn't agree more, often times teasing you lovingly about it. She just loved how flustered and puffy eyed you got whenever you were embarrassed or teary.
How did Sayaka's feelings develop? Well, it just happened naturally. Being friendly and determined to achieve her goals, when you joined her group, she did not give up on you even if you were rude and often times liked to isolate yourself.
Through her determination, she figured out that you put up that cold front because of personal fears. And soon enough, she learned to read you like a book.
Maybe it was the fact that she was the only one to understand you in such a way made her so obsessive over you. I mean, you had nobody but her, she had to give you all her time, no?
After she got kidnapped and brought in this insane game, she didn't want to hurt anyone, but seeing the video of you being touched by someone else, and kissed forcefully, made her realize that if she didn't get out and save you, you will be forever lost.
She would do anything for you, even kill.
Hiyoko Saionji
Tumblr media
Hiyoko always disliked men. She never felt comfortable around them, and hated when men would become her managers. But when you came into her life and started to manage all of her performances, and finances, stuff started to become a little bit better.
The two of you were a little apart in age, but that was alright for her. She'll be an adult in a few months! She didn't mind. But you did. It infuriated Hiyoko how you never reciprocated her advances, even if she made it very clear that she was serious about you.
It was because she looked so childish? She usually didn't hate her body, finding it a good tool to manipulate adults, but in this moment, she truly wished she was more mature to be able to attract you.
Hiyoko always had a spoiled nature and haughty attitude, so it was no surprise that whenever she noticed that you started to get along with someone that was not her, she would start harassing that person.
The only exception was any member of her family, but it didn't mean she wouldn't curse their name in that moment, before she would calm down.
How did the ultimate despair trick Hiyoko into despair? Of course, she promised Hiyoko you and complete ownership over you. Everything else is history, especially now that you are her perfect doll.
Sitting still, looking pretty, and without the ability to leave her anymore.
Ibuki Mioda
Tumblr media
Ibuki was a genius of a kind. But with most geniuses, it's hard to realize their beauty, for it's unique and different from what you are used to. But you were different.
You were a loner at her school, usually staying away from most on your own accord, only having one or two friends you occasionally spoke to, but primarily, you spent time alone.
On one of your travels through your old school, you heard music coming from a room and went to check it out.
The music you heard was experimental and not many could appreciate it in it's raw form, but you were in awe. You didn't shy away from telling her that you loved her music. You even asked how you could support her or hear more of her music.
Ibuki always knew that she was a great musician, but with this new adventure into finding a new style for her, it was hard when nobody could appreciate her. But finally, she found someone who did.
You were her first fan. Her first manager. Her first friend who understood her music. And most importantly, you were her first love.
Ibuki didn't hide her feelings for you, and you didn't hide your dislike for committed relationships, be it platonic or romantic. You didn't even consider her a friend on an official level. But that was okay, she was determined to make you a part of her journey.
She was nothing but persistent. Following you around, creating opportunities where you two could be together. And besides, even if she didn't do any of that, her music always brought you back in her arms.
She was content for now. But for how much longer would she be?

HII!! Thank you for the Cutthroat post my friend!! I hope todays going good :D i couldn’t thank you enough for doing my requests really, feel free to send me any requests & i can do them for you😭, but anyways I’ll get started :D
Can you do Sayaka, Kaede, Miu, Celeste, Kyoko and Sonia with a S/O who has a Asuka Langley Personality from Neon Genesis Evangelion??
Thanks a ton!!
Hey hey! How's it goin?
No problem! I'm always happy to do your requests :3
As for me, I'm pretty shy about submitting requests rather than writing them, but I'll keep that in mind 🙈
Hope you enjoy!
Sayaka, Kaede, Miu, Celeste, Kyoko and Sonia With an S/O Who's Like Asuka Langley (Neon Genesis Evangelion)
Sayaka Maizono 
She finds you very interesting
And kind of intense at times
You were a very proud person, especially in your talent and your appearance
Some people may have viewed you as arrogant, but Sayaka didn't
She got along with you pretty well
She noticed that you hated being bossed around or looked down on, so she was careful not to talk to you that way
You wanted to be treated as an adult, and she made sure to do so
She also enjoys your skills as a pilot, and she'll let you know
But she also doesn't inflate your ego too much
With her intuition, she can kind of guess that your personality is just a front for a much more vulnerable and insecure side of you
She can tell what you're thinking, and she's quick to comfort you in any way you need
Even if you're independent and refuse her help, she'll still do whatever she can to help you feel better
She doesn't mind that you're aggressive and opinionated, but she'll  make sure you don't get violent with anyone
Sayaka is very easy to get along with, and also very patient with you
Kaede Akamatsu 
She also found you to be very interesting
A little intense, but interesting
She also gets along with you really well
She doesn't look or talk down to you in any way
Your aggressiveness can be startling sometimes, but she can handle it
She doesn't mind if you're independent, but she makes sure to check on you and help out if she can
And she doesn't want you to suppress your emotions
She'll want you to talk about it, but she won't force you
Even so, she'll always let you know that she's there for you
She'll do her best to keep your violent tendencies in line, as well as making sure you don't get too aggressive with others
So
Sweet piano girl is very kind and patient with you
Miu Iruma 
The first thing she noticed about you was hearing talking about your body
If you're a female, she laughed in your face
"Hah! You think your body is busty?? You ain't shit compared to the gorgeous girl genius, Miu fuckin Iruma!"
But she's definitely got caught looking-
Or if you're a dude, she just scoffed at you
"Oh please. You're like a 5/10, don't flatter yourself."
Don't believe her, she does think you're hot
She doesn't look down on you, but she can be quite loud
Although if you match her aggressiveness with your own, she'll act all submissive and apologize
But she does a pretty good job at treating you like an adult
Her talent is also pretty helpful for you
She'll fix up a plane engine if you need her to
Just ring her up, and she'll come running
Underneath her bold persona, she's pretty insecure as well
Maybe not on the same level as you, but she can understand
She won't force you talk, but she'll listen if you want to
She's also pretty independent, so she can understand that as well
Miu may be loud, but she cares
She can even sympathize with you sometimes
Celestia Ludenburg 
She's not a big fan of outwardly aggressive people
She thinks they're not very smart
So she kind of got that vibe from you as well
You wanna be treated like an adult?
Not in her house castle
She talks down to you, and watches in amusement as you get angry with her
She loves toying with you
But she tones this behavior down once she gets to know you
And boom! You're ✨dating✨
Now she does normally treat you like an adult, but she'll still playfully treat you like a child, to tease you
She has some insecurities of her own, so she won't judge you for it
She's also quite independent, so she can't blame you for that either
 But she'll encourage you to talk to her if you need to
She'll act completely serious during these times
No teasing, no jokes, just completely silent and serious
Even though Celeste loves to tease you, she'll be serious when you need her to be
You can rely on her, and she'll be sure to let you know
Kyoko Kirigiri 
She doesn't have any issues with your aggression or your pride
As long as you're not hurting anyone, she's chill with you
You two get along surprisingly well
She talks to and treats everyone like an adult, or at least around her age
So that won't be a problem for you
She's a very mature person, and she acts that way around others too
If you're doing or saying anything out of line, she'll shut it down real quick
She can detect when you're feeling insecure, and she'll be there to talk if you need to
She was taught from a young age to suppress her emotions, and she doesn't want the same for you
So she won't force you to talk, but she will listen and do her best to help
Overall, Kyoko is basically the perfect girl for you
She doesn't judge you, or look down on you in any way
We stan detective gf 🥺
Sonia Nevermind
She also found you very interesting
Your aggression was startling at times, but she was fascinated by you
And your skills as a pilot
She thinks you're really cool
When you express how proud you are of your body, she will agree with you, no shame
She may actually fluster you sometimes
If you want to be treated as an adult, no problem!
Sonia will talk to you and treat you normally, just like she wants to be
She's grateful to you for treating her as something more than just royalty
So she'll treat you the same way
She probably wouldn't immediately notice that you were insecure, but once she finds out, she gets super concerned
She just wants her love to be happy
She can be a bit overwhelming about these things, but she'll do her best to help however she can
If you need to talk, she's there
If not, that's totally fine
She tries not to hang over you too much
She'll let you approach you when she's comfortable
Sonia may be a little oblivious, but she really does love you <3

Keith Howell - Chapter 22 Romantic - Summary
I pretty much have no idea what I’m doing. I don’t trust me, and you shouldn’t either. This summary is not guaranteed to be accurate, it’s mostly written for myself to follow along with the route.
Emma has been taken hostage by Keith’s Evil Uncle Fernand and locked away in a mansion on what must be the top floor. If she stripped the bed and tied every linen, she could find in the room end to end, she would never be able to make a rope that would bring her even close to the ground.
But she could make a rope that reached her to the window of the room below hers.
Emma looks down at the dizzying height, looking at the river rushing by directly beneath her. She grabs the fireplace poker and lowers herself to the next floor and breaks open the window.
Her rope-burned hands smarting, Emma tries and then successfully opens the new room’s door to a wide hallway. There is no one around, almost suspiciously so, and although Emma is afraid, she continues forward. She rushes towards the stairs she can see at the end of the corridor.
A soldier appears out of a blind corner and upon noticing her, yells at her to stop. Emma runs faster, knowing that if she was caught, she would not be able to escape. Even though she runs with all her might, she can hear the soldier’s footsteps come closer and closer.
When she passes another nook in the corridor, there are several more soldiers waiting. This is when Emma slips and falls on the carpet. She got so far, but now she’s going to be caught for sure.
A new voice shouts out for everyone to stay back, that they’re frightening Emma. Emma realizes it was coming from the stairway she was heading for and sees someone knocking down soldiers with his bare fists, cloak fluttering with movement. Emma stands up, trying to comprehend what she’s seeing.
He looks like Keith; his voice sounds like Keith’s, but his demeanor is completely different.
Keith calls out to her and embraces Emma, his body as hot as if he had a fever. She is enveloped by the smell of forest and trees. She realizes that this is Nice!Keith with her, and the fear and tension in her chest seem to fade away.
Emma tells Keith that she missed him, and Keith notes that she didn’t seem surprised to see him. Emma replies that she never doubted that he would come and rescue her. Keith thanks her for believing in him.
Keith breaks their embrace to look over Emma, asking if she is okay. Emma lets his kindness permeate her heart. She admits to being shoved around a little bit but assures him that she is fine. Her voice fades as she gets a good look at Keith’s clothes, and how much blood was on them. She asks Keith where he is injured, and if he’s okay to go onward.
Very awkwardly, Keith admits that this is not his blood. He apologizes for frightening her and then apologizes for not taking her into consideration when he barged into the hallway.
Tumblr media
(Only Keith would apologize for rescuing someone)
Thanks to the books she read, Emma has envisioned the heroic prince rescuing the captive maiden plenty of times. However, she never imagined that he would be so bloody and obviously violent.
However, Emma is pleased to know that Keith isn’t wounded. If he had gotten seriously hurt, especially on her behalf, that would have been far worse than anything he would have done to rescue her. Keith tells her not to worry about him, and just focus on herself. But he’s thankful to her for being happy to see him.
Keith soothes Emma’s hair, arranging it out of its disheveled state. Emma thinks that his face looks very troubled, and she thinks about how easily he puts off concern about himself.
Keith asks Emma if she recognized anyone in the mansion. Emma tells him about his uncle Fernand, and the other man whom she recognized from Sonia’s party, but she doesn’t know his name. Keith muses that the other person would probably be the owner of the mansion, a Duke who was a fervent supporter of his younger brother.
Keith knows that the Duke hates him, but it is difficult to accept that he joined Fernand’s supporters. Emma thinks back to the look of hatred on the Duke’s face back at Sonia’s party. Keith looks bitter and resigned to the circumstances.
Emma asks Keith how he came into the mansion, and Keith tells her that he can’t tell Emma about it. He glances at the sword at his waist, and Emma looks too, seeing how it was especially bloody, saturating the clothes at his waist. It occurs to Emma that Keith came to this mansion alone, and wonders what he went through to reach her. Without thinking, Emma reaches out to hold Keith’s hand, and her hand is held back.
It’s so strange. This fight was not at all quiet, but neither Fernand nor the Duke appeared to investigate. In addition, there are no other soldiers coming their way. It’s like the calm before the storm.
Keith suggests they take advantage of this and just leave. They walk swiftly but alertly through the remainder of the hallway, with no sign of anyone coming. Emma wonders if they’ll just be lucky and escape the mansion without running into anyone else.
A voice from a closed room calls out, begging for help.
Emma and Keith both come to a stop, and check in with each other that they definitely heard the voice. They approach the door and can hear a plaintive voice definitely calling out for help out of a door that was held shut with a chain.
Without hesitating, Keith unwraps the chain. Even though he doesn’t know what is inside, he doesn’t hesitate to help, something Emma admires about him. It suits him, as the future King of Jade, to not even consider ignoring the voice.
Keith tells Emma to stay out of the room and in the hallway. There’s a good chance this is a trap, and if he’s right, she needs to run to the stairway and escape the mansion. There are people outside who can help her, as long as she escapes.
Emma tells Keith that she understands, she will escape, find these helpful people, and bring them back. Keith tells her that she’s mistaken, he wants her to run away, but Emma refuses. When they run away from the mansion, they’ll run away together. She refuses to leave Keith alone if he needs help. Reluctantly agreeing, Keith finishes unwinding the chain and drops it to the floor, and then opens the doors.
Inside the room is a man lying on the floor, wearing the uniform of a Rhodolite servant. He is bound by both hands and feet, completely unable to move. Keith recognizes him as the missing messenger, the one who kidnapped Emma.
The messenger pleads with them, they have his daughter and were threatening her if he didn’t obey. Keith asks if he means Fernand, and the messenger nods with tears in his eyes. Keith asks if he’s willing to testify in front of the king, and the messenger agrees, as long as Keith saves him before Fernand kills him.
Looking dubious, Keith unsheathes his sword and cuts the rope. Emma considers the situation, wondering why Fernand didn’t kill this messenger. To put it bluntly, he has no value alive to Fernand, and is a loose end.
Once he could move, the messenger rushed to the entrance at full speed, nearly barreling over Emma just beyond the entrance. He slams the doors shut, wrapping the handles in the discarded chain. Emma yells out for him to stop; Keith is still in the room. She grabs the messenger’s hand, but he shoves her away strongly, apologizing all the while.
Behind her, a familiar voice praises the messenger.
From the beginning, they had known that there was a chance that this was a trap. So the praise and the applause from behind her do not surprise Emma. She turns to face Fernand and the Duke. From behind the door, Keith shouts at Emma to run away, before coughing.
Fernand tells Emma that it’s fine if she leaves, her only purpose was to lure Keith here, to this very room. Emma asks what Fernand is doing to Keith.
Poison.  Right now, there is poison slowly being pumped into the room through the air vents. He imagines that Keith has about 10 minutes left. Emma goes cold and quickly turns to unwrap the chains from the doorknob, ignoring the messenger’s broken apologies.
Neither Fernand nor the Duke do anything to stop her. If anything, they’ve backed away from her.
Once Emma gets the doors opened, Keith slowly exits, warning Emma to stay back. He collapses to the floor, the poison already circulating through his system. Even though Emma tries to get closer to him, he holds up a hand to stop her.
Fernand is amazed, to be able to move that much despite the poison showing how monstrously big and healthy Keith truly is. Keith agrees that being big and healthy is something he’s good at.
With a flat voice, Fernand laments that his nephew is going to die now. He is sad, even though Keith did try to assassinate the king, no one deserves the agony of prolonged death via poison. He turns to the Duke beside him and asks if he would like to do the honors as revenge for the death of Keith’s younger brother.
Emma shouts for them to stop, and Fernand tells her to stay out of this. Behind her, Keith stumbles back to his feet, his fighting spirit not yet gone. Speaking of which, shouldn’t Alter!Keith have taken control by now? A glance tells her Nice!Keith is still in control.
Keith proclaims his innocence, announcing that he refuses to die here. He calls out to Emma, asking if she remembers what they discussed earlier. Emma recalls their discussion about finding help outside the mansion and assures him that she does remember. However, it is a bad plan, she’s not going to be able to get help in enough time to save him.
Besides, if she leaves, Keith will have to handle two – no – three people. Instead, Emma turns to Fernand; she knows he’s the type who would already have the antidote prepared. The method of delivery for the poison was haphazard, with a high chance of accidents. Even if he didn’t care for the servants, she has no doubt that Fernand would preserve his own safety at the very least.
Well, Emma is right. Is this what she wants? Fernand holds out a vial from his pocket, laughing. Emma is a little surprised, she hadn’t realized that he would carry it on her.
Fernand will give it to her, but only if Emma becomes his mistress. Right here, and right now. Before she can say anything, Keith tells Emma to reject it.
Pulling out his sword, Keith hurls himself towards Fernand, who parries Keith with his own sword at the last minute. Even though his life is at stake, even though he is weak with poison, Keith is evenly matched with Fernand. However, his complexion was pale, and Emma wonders if he will collapse at any moment.
While fighting, Keith calls out to Emma and repeats that she cannot accept Fernand’s offer. He would die if he saw Emma forcing herself to endure Fernand’s attentions for his sake. Besides, Fernand is a liar and wouldn’t save Keith and would instead just toy with Emma.
Still fighting, Fernand praises Keith. Even though he is stupid and a failure, he does understand Fernand’s plans.
For the first time in Emma’s life, a strong anger wells up from within.
Fernand has one last lesson for his stupid nephew. He breaks away from Keith and opens a window in the hallway as the Duke engages Keith. Emma realizes too late what Fernand is intending, and her mind goes blank as her body moves on its own.
Fernand has no need for the antidote any longer.
The vial is thrown out the window like trash. Emma recalls the river she saw beneath the mansion – the vial won’t just hit the ground, but it will be washed away. Desperate to save Keith, Emma reaches and jumps out the window.
From behind, she can hear Keith shout at her to stop.

So how do you feel about Hinanami? :O
I think there were moments when Hinata was in love with Nanami. But first of all, I think Hinata is the kind of person who falls in love easily. Because in Peko's ending in Island Mode of SDR2, we can see that he had a bit of a crush on Peko even though she had no romantic relationship with him at all, and he took Sonia's suggestion a bit seriously when she talked about marriage, so I think he is the type of person who immediately develops romantic feelings for people he gets to know a bit too well.
Though I love to see that Hinata and Nanami get along, but I don't like it that much as a romantic relationship. As mentioned above, I think it is typical of him that Hinata develops an immediate romantic interest in someone, but it is different from my interpretation of Nanami if she develops a romantic interest in someone easily.
Hmmm, well, I don't want to disrespect anyone who likes Hinanami, so I'll limit myself to that. Just to add one important thing in my mind, I prefer NanaHina to Hinanami. (Basically, I prefer ships that Hinata doesn't have the initiative 😄)

Backstory:
Born to an Olympic Equestrian and an actress.
Her older sister was diagnosed with her illness when Kat was about 3.
Grew up trying to keep her sisters spirits high and the two having this beautiful and inseparable bond with each other, especially in the face of their parents marriage troubles they did their best to keep from the girls, and their mothers narcissitic and controlling tendencies.
Grew up with her cousins whenever they got to visit and was especially close to her cousin, Sonia, they were best friends.
Played a very early, early prototype to Duel Monsters, before it was ever Duel Monsters, in the hospital rooms her sister frequented.
Lost a lot of her family within a year of each other; the Harmonia sinking, then Mason passing away in a car accident, then Cecelia and then Evangeline. Would be adopted by her godparents, who the will dictated were to take her in the event anything happened to her parents; the agreement was decided as the best move by both them, Maximillion and Wes.
Moved to San Francisco with her godparents, Maddox, her nieces and Max when Industrial Illusions properly started up.
Got to beta test Duel Monsters for her big brother and competed and won in the very first tournament.
Continued the tournament circuit, making time for her family as much as she could.
Met Kaiba at a tournament and they quickly became dedicated rivals and her goal has been to beat him some day, as he was the only person she had never beaten before.
Is with Max when he gets the news that Kaiba has been defeated and she's more upset that somebody beat him before she did than anything else; though, there is definitely quite a bit of surprise when she goes to try and figure out who this Yugi kid is and finds he himself has an Item like the one Max has as a fake eye.
Goes to Duelist Kingdom to watch, since she was barred from competing, and begins to uncover more than she could have ever imagined.

Pawnee Pride: Stephen
Pawnee 2026
“You know how mom and I are kind of famous,” Ben tried to explain to the kids as they sat in their hotel room eating a late dinner. “And now that she’s running for governor, she’s only going to be more famous, which means weirdos might approach you at the state fair or at events we’re at.
“Oh my gosh, who would think the state fair would attract weirdos,” Westley said, taking a bite of his salad. 
“Yes, well we’re not going to call them that, we’re going to have a little signal, ok?” Leslie said, sitting down next to Sonia and Stephen. 
“Are people going to be filming us again?” Westley asked, concerned now. He thought about the visit to Ben and Leslie’s old workplace and the familiar camera crew.
“If they do we’re going to say they can’t film you, just like when you were kids,” Ben reassured him.
“They did get the cutest little clip of Sonia and Oliver,” Leslie said, covering her daughter’s ears. Sonia okayed the cameras but the mention of the boy she’d discussed comic books with caused her to blush.
“If you need to show Westley, I can always pretend I’m your son,” Stephen said, stepping over to Westley’s seat and taking off his glasses. “My name is Westley. I like outer space and penguins.”
“That’s a good Westley,” Leslie said. Even Westley smiled at this before grabbing his glasses back. 
“You don’t have to pretend to be our son, you are our son, but we’ll keep that in mind. Maybe we’ll get an extra pair of glasses if we need to take family photos,” Ben said. “Not that Stephen needs glasses, I definitely didn’t mix them up when the kids were one.”
“Stephen did love the cameras,” Leslie said, “Remember that thing with the poncho? He’s the only person who Jen Barkley’s afraid of.”
“So that’s why Jen asked if Stephen is going to be involved with the campaign,” Ben said. “I thought she meant me but then she just kept saying “the boy” really ominously.”
“That’s hilarious,” Leslie said, “Meet our son Westley, our daughter Sonia and our son Stephen,” saying the two words before Stephen as gravely as she could make her voice. Sonia giggled along with Ben and Leslie while Stephen silently ate some of his pizza.
Indianapolis 2027
“Why would that former governor even have a room full of actual skeletons?” Sonia said as she shut the door she and Westley had opened minutes earlier. The two had decided the party celebrating their mom was boring and were exploring the governor’s mansion. 
“I don’t know, Mike Pence sounded like a real weird guy. Good thing he exploded two years ago,” Westley said. 
“At least we don’t have to actually live here,” Sonia said, brushing dust off of her tuxedo jacket. “I’m not living in a creepy mansion unless I’m a princess.”
“Where have you guys been, they have a cake and cupcakes in there,” Stephen said, leaving the main ballroom to find Westley and Sonia in the hallway. 
“Stephen, you’re getting frosting on my dress,” Sonia said, annoyed as Stephen took bites of the two cupcakes in both hands. 
“It’s not your dress, it belongs to the good people of Deanna’s Dream Rentals, and it looks better on me.” Stephen did a twirl around the pair and neatly bowed.
“I know the dress said S on the tag, but it was meant for me,” Sonia said. 
“Or for Superman,” Westley said.
“But you like the tux,” Stephen said.
“I do.” Sonia said. “Ok, fine, you’re getting frosting on your dress, Stephen.”
“So.” Westley said, waiting for his siblings to stop talking so he could say something. “Stephen, the dress. I want to make sure I’m following what mom said in all those binders about gender and sexuality, do I have two sisters now? I just want to make sure if you. If you want to use she/her pronouns.” Westley looked at Sonia to see if she would interject. 
“I’m not a girl, Westley,” Stephen said. “Where in those binders about gender were clothes? Anyone can wear a dress.” 
“Ok then.” Westley said.
“Thank God,” Sonia said, “Not that I wouldn’t welcome having a sister, I just like attention. Don’t ever dye your hair blond, Stephen. There can only be one.” 
“I can appreciate that, Soso,” Stephen said, “You might not know this, but I also like attention.”
“That explains the dress,” Westley said. “And I guess clothes not having gender or whatever.”
2031
“Family, I have an announcement,” Stephen said, standing up at the end of the Knope Wyatt’s usual table at JJ’s Diner. 
“Does it have anything to do with that hat you’ve worn all day?” Leslie asked. 
“It does!” Stephen tossed the hat to the side. 
“BLONDE?” Sonia shrieked. “Stephen, you promised you wouldn’t ever dye your hair blonde. That’s my color.”
“It’s just for the play,” Westley said, “You know they’re playing Galinda.”
“Good. As long as it’s just for the play,” Sonia said. “And as long as no one else thinks their hair looks blonder or better than mine. I’m still the cutest blonde in our family. Oh. and mom.”
“Thanks, sweetie,” Leslie said.

Review: The White Lady
By Dustin Cabeal
Death! It’s coming for us all. Of if it was that easy to sum up The White Lady with just that statement. Instead, we find a complex look at how we care for our elderly. Is there kindness we can provide at the end of one’s life be it a simple gesture of pretending to be someone’s granddaughter after they begin pulling back from them. Quite frankly, I do not think anyone has the answer and there are all sorts of legal gray areas when it comes to end of someone’s life.
The story follows Estelle, a nurse at a care home for the elderly. It follows her as she becomes entangled in the lives of the people she is caring for and how as more and more time passes the harder it becomes for her to say good by to these people. She begins to feel as if she is their family or at the very least that she understands them better than their family. There is a level of empathy that Estelle achieves with each of the people in her care. It begins to unravel though as she loses more people and her compulsion to keep a memento from each person leads to her taking a Nintendo Switch and playing Animal Crossing with one her patients under the guise of it being his granddaughter. Her coworker and friend Sonia discovers this and becomes wrapped up in the events making her question if she is crossed a line because of Estelle.
While the story and pacing are well crafted, the ending is unrewarding. There is nowhere for Estelle’s character to go, we just see her unravelling, but there are no consequences to her actions. At the logical point in the story in which we would reach the consequences, the story flashes to the future in a predictable way and ends there. There is a great concept here, but there isn’t a full and complete story to go along with it. Yes, the relationships between the nurses and the elderly are touching and moving, but it feels like a collection of short stories all taking place in the same setting with the same characters.
It is a shame because you really want to see where this is going for Estelle. She is lost in the world, settling for less from her relationships outside of work and when her secret is revealed not once, but twice everyone just looks past this very serious problem of hers and try to move on as quickly as they can. It deflates the story the first time, but then there is a great build up to Sonia’s discovery. Soon after though we are deflated again as we see Sonia making a similar mistake and getting too close to the family of a patient.
What the story does well is ask the question of how do we care for our old? As a society we pay so much attention to how we care of someone at the start of their life, but not nearly as much care or thought about the end of their lives. Do some yoga once a week and watch tv before you drink your wine. Then it’s off to bed with your meds to do it all over again. Its just that it asks this question repeatedly with each new elderly character the story follows. It does not particularly try to answer that question, which is fine, but it also does not need to repeat it over and over again.
The artwork is mostly blue and white. All the linework is blue apart from water-colored pages filled with color. Otherwise, it is blue hues used as the shadowing and lines. Which is fitting considering the overall feel of the book is blue. The water-colored pages or at least it looks all water colored, is wonderful. The details are masterful, making the characters look realistic. The elderly characters look their age, saggy boobs and all. There’s nudity in a way that is normalized in the story and handled with maturity. The art brings that out and captures the emotion that Estelle and Sonia feel for the people in their care.
It is a shame that the story really went nowhere. In some sense it tries to say that we are the sum of our experiences and the people we experience them with, but that is a stretch I’m not willing to give it. Especially since I am filling in the blank for them. It’s enjoyable read, even if it is extremely melancholy. You are not going to slap your knee and say, “damn that was some good reading!” You may come away with a new appreciation for people at the end of their lives and the people we put in charge to care for them.

Yet again nobody asked but here's my Danganronpa: Goodby Despair Gender and Sexuality Headcanons!
Hajime Hinata: He/Him, I personally think of him as a cis guy but i love fanart and writing made by people who interpret him as a trans guy! I think he's polysexual and polyamorous
Akane Owari: Any Pronouns, I feel like bigender in a girl & non-binary way makes the most sense to me. Pan and Demisexual
Byakuya Twogami (Imposter): They/She/He, Non-Binary Genderfluid icon. Aro and Ace-spec, mainly expiriences alterous attraction.
Chiaki Nanami: She/They (thinks neopronouns are neat and doesn't mind but they aren't significant enough to her for her to include them), Asexual and Pan (mostly going off of my own experiences here but) easily has what she thought to be crushes but realized they were all alterous.
Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu: He/Him, trans man. Got to transition at a very young age but considering the people he had to be around his perception of manhood is kind of toxic so he gets dysophoric about alot of things, he's working on it tho. Bisexual but going along with my previous statement it took alot of time for him to come to terms with this because he had alot of internalized homophobia.
Gundham Tanaka: He/They/It, is he cis? probably not, but def a man. Probably is a guy but feels like it in abstract concepts because gender is weird so i think he would technically define himself as demiboy. I think he is Asexual (sex favorable tho) and omni with a preference for men.
Hiyoko Saionji: She/Her, Bisexual. Only brings it up to be a bitch tho. Other than that she doesn't really mention it....unless she is crushing on a girl but even then kind of secretive because feelings are complicated and her wanting to show affection to crush comes out as insults because she struggles to articulate her feelings.
Ibuki Mioda: She/They/Xe/Zir/It/He (yes, that order specifically), Trans girl, after feeling comfortable in her presentation and femininity she questioned what she was fine with being called and all that. May possibly be non-binary but very much punk rock chick energy. Asexual Biromantic, polyamory is cool <3
Kazuichi Souda: He/They, Transmasc non-binary. Bi with a preference to men. Figured that out after realizing he's been a piece of shit to sonia. Very much internalized homophobia
Mahiru Koizumi: They/She, Non-binary Lesbian.
Mikan Tsumiki: She/Her. Omnisexual, she can like anyone but tends to be attracted to fem presenting people or masc presenting people.
Nagito Komaeda: He/Him, but says he doesn't care because he's a people pleaser with no self esteem. Gay, very much liking men. Thinking about it he's been into Non-Binary people before.
Nekomaru Nidai: He/Him, Very much an ally, very much straight ally...or so he thought. Gay
Peko Pekoyama: She/Her, Transgirl, transitioned earlier on like her boyfriend fuyuhiko. They definately traded clothes. Aroflux, heterosexual.
Sonia Nevermind: She/Any, is intrigued by non-binary people and likes learning about peoples relationships with gender, she actually enjoys studying about it. they redefined her relationship with femininity because of it. She doesn't label herself.
TeruTeru Hanamura: He/Him, Pansexual

A while before the latest hoo-ha about Judith Butler, I had just been reading her again. Though she claims her critics have not read her, this simply isn’t the case. I read Gender Trouble when it first came out and it was important at the time . That time was long,long ago. She was just one of the many ‘post-structuralist’ thinkers I was into. I would trip off to see  Luce Irigaray or Derrida whenever they appeared.
I got an interview  with Baudrillard and tried to sell it to The Guardian but they  didn’t know who he was so its fair to say I was fairly immersed in that world of theory.  For a while, I had a part time lecturing job so I had to keep on top of it. Though Butler’s idea of gender as performance was not new , it was interesting.  RuPaul said it so much more clearly in a  quote nicked from  someone else “Honey ,we are born naked, the rest is drag”
What I was looking for again , I guess is not any clarity – her writing is famously and deliberately difficult-  but whether there was ever any sense of the material body. She wrote herself in 2004 “I confess however I am not a very good materialist. Every time I try to write about the body, the writing ends up being about language” . 
Butler from on high ,cannot really think about the body at all which is why they (Butler’s chosen pronoun) are now the high priestess of a particular kind of trans ideology.  The men who worship Butler are not versed in high theory. The fox botherer had a “brain swoon” at some very ordinary things Butler said. Mr Right Side of history nodded along in an interview. Clearly neither of these men are versed in any of this philosophy and would be better off sticking to tax law and the decline of the Labour Party. Butler is simply a totem for them.
Butler said in the Guardian interview for instance  “Gender is an assignment that does not just happen once: it is ongoing. We are assigned a sex at birth and then a slew of expectations follow which continue to “assign” gender to us.”
So yeah? That’s a fairly basic view of the social construction of gender though I take issue with the assigned at birth thing ,which I will come back to and why I started reading her again in the first place.
This phrase “Assigned sex at birth” is now common parlance but simply does not make sense  to me. I am living with someone who is pregnant. I have given birth three times and been a birthing  partner. I know where babies come from. There is a deep disconnect here between language and reality which no amount of academic jargon can obliterate. 
Babies  come from bodies. Not any bodies but bodies that have a uterus. They grew inside a woman’s body until they  get pushed out or dragged out into the world. 
The facts of life that we are now to be liberated from in the form of denial. Only one sex can have babies but we must now somehow not say that. The pregnant “people” of Texas will now be forced into giving birth to children they don’t want because they are simply “host bodies”. The language of patriarchal supremacy and that of some of the trans ideologues is remarkably close, as is their biological ignorance.
There is no foetal heatbeat at six weeks for instance. When a baby is born , doctors and midwives do not randomly assign a sex, they observe it and they do it though genitalia. 
There is a question over a tiny percentage of babies ,less that one percent with DSDs but even then they are sexed with doctors having  difficult conversations with parents about what may happen later.
Somehow, though when I read the way in which this is now all discussed it is clear to me that the people talking have never been pregnant, never had a foetal scan, never been near a birth , never miscarried, do not understand that even with a still birth babies are still sexed and often named. 
If you want to know the sex of your baby you can pay privately and know at 7 weeks ((*49-56 days from the first day of the mother’s last menstrual cycle). A 12 week scan will show it. That is why so many female foetuses are aborted . I have reported on this. 
Talking to paediatricians about this is interesting because they do indeed have to think through these things that we are being told are not real eg. that sex is just a by-product of colonialism for instance.  Sometimes pre-conception , geneticists will be looking at chromosomes because certain diseases are more likely in men or women. Males have a higher risk of haemophilia for instance.  
One doctor told me “When babies are premature, the survival advantage of females over males is well known throughout neonatology. This is sometimes something we talk about with parents when there is threatened premature labour around 23 weeks' gestation and options to discuss about resuscitation and medical interventions. In fertility treatment (or counselling around fertility in the context of medical treatments) it is pretty inherent to know whether we need to plan around sperm, or ova + pregnancy.”
She also said that if she involved in a birth that “assigning” isn’t the word she world use. “Observed genitals a highly reliable observation, just like measuring weight or head circumference which is also done at this time. “ Another doctor said that anyone involved with a trans man giving birth  would be doing the best for the patient in front  of them. 
Sex then is biological fact. A female baby will have all the eggs she will ever have when she is first born which is kind of amazing. It is not bio-essentialist to say that our sexed bodies are different nor is it transphobic to recognise it.
Except of course in my old newspaper ,The Guardian who are now so hamstrung by their  own ideology they have got their knickers in such a twist they can barely walk.  They completely misreported the WiSpa incident , basically ignored the Sonia  Appleby  judgement at the Tavistock. Appleby was a whistle blower ,a respected professional concerned with safe guarding. She won her case. The cherry on the cake this week was an interview with Butler, themselves (?) in which they went on about Terfs being fascists and needing to extend the category of women.
Does anyone EVER stop to think that most gender critical women are of the left, supporters of gay rights, often lesbian and that this is not America? We are not in bed with the far right. This is bollocks. Just another way to dismiss us.  
As we watch Afghanistan and Texas ,to say Butler’s words were tone deaf is to say the least. But they didn’t even have the guts to keep the most offensive stuff in the piece and overnight edited it out without really explaining why : the bits where Butler described gender critical people as fascist. Perhaps because the person their “reporters” had  defended against  transphobia at WiSpa turned out to be a known sex offender,  perhaps because someone pointed out that Butler was throwing around the word fascist rather like Rik Mayall used to do in the Young Ones. 
All of this is rather desperate and readers deserve better. When I left that newspaper I said that I thought and expected editors to stand up for their writers in public. Instead they go into some catatonic paralysis. I may have not liked this interview but it should never have been cut. Stand by what you publish or your credibility is shot.
But this is about more than Judith Butler and their refusal to support women . Butler is not really any kind of feminist at all. What this is about is the large edifice of trans ideology  crumbling when any real analysis is applied. Yes, I have read Shon Faye’s book and there are some interesting points in it and I totally agree that the lives of trans people should be easier and health care better . I have never said anything but that.
What Faye does in the book is say that there can be no trans liberation under capitalism so there will be a bit of a wait I suspect. 
Yet surely it is the other way round and what we are seeing is that trans ideology (not trans people – I am making a distinction here ) represent the apex of capitalism .
For it means that the individual decides their own gendered essence and then spends a fortune on surgery and a lifetime on medication to achieve the appearance of it. Of course lots of people spend a lifetime  on medication but not out of choice.  Marx understood very well that the abolition of our system of production would free up women.
Now it is all about freeing up men. Who say they are women. Quelle surprise.  
 Nussbaum’s famous take down of Butler is premised exactly on the sense of individual versus collective struggle “ The great tragedy in the new feminist theory in America is the loss of a sense of public commitment. In this sense, Butler’s self-involved feminism is extremely American, and it is not surprising that it has caught on here, where successful middle-class people prefer to focus on cultivating the self rather than thinking in a way that helps the material condition of others. “
Such thinking now dominates academia. There is simply an unquestioning  rehearsal of something most of know not to be true thus Amia Srinivasan writes in The Right to Sex  “At birth, bodies are sorted as ‘male’ or ‘female’, though many bodies must be mutilated to fit one category or the other, and many bodies will later protest against the decision that was made. This originary division determines what social purpose a body will be assigned.”
What does ‘sorted’ mean here? A tiny number of intersex babies are born. A tiny number of people are trans and decide to change their bodies. The feminist demand to challenge gender norms without mutilating any one’s body no longer matters. What matters now is this retrograde return  to some gendered soul. This is not something any decent Marxist would have any truck with . Of course one may change over a lifetime and of course gender is never ‘settled.’ We are complex people who inhabit bodies that often don’t work or appear as we want them to.
But not only is there a denial of basic Marxism going on here , what becomes ever more apparent is  that there is a denial of motherhood. Butler said “Yet gender is also what is made along the way – we can take over the power of assignment, make it into self-assignment, which can include sex reassignment at a legal and medical level.”
Self-assignment is key . One may birth oneself. No longer of woman born but self -made. This is a theoretical leap but it also one that has profound implications for women as a sex class. We are really then, just the  host bodies to a new breed of people who self-assign.
Maybe that is the future although look around the word and there isn’t a lot of self-assignment going on. There are simply women shot and beaten in the street, choked to death or having  their rights taken  away. There is no identifying out of this , there is no fluidity here . This is not discourse. It is brutality and do we not have some responsibility to other women to confront male violence ?
Instead the hatred is aided and abetted by so called philosophers describing  other women as Terfs. It is utterly depressing.
The sexed body. The pregnant body. The dying body. The body is in trouble when we can’t talk about it . I thought of Margaret Mary O’Hara’s  beautiful and  strange lyrics and what they might mean. I await my child’s return from the hospital as hers is a difficult pregnancy and thank god they are on the case. The sex of the child she carries does not matter to me at all .
It simply exists. Not in language but within a body. 
Why is that so difficult to acknowledge?

Tumblr media
It’s not even a particularly hot day, and yet you’re sweating bullets as you walk over to the dining hall like you do every morning. Your legs are wobbly and your head is aching something terrible, you assume that you’ve caught a cold or something , whatever the problem is, it’s going to be a question for Tsumiki when you meet up with her at breakfast.
Kuzuryu is standing out by the pool, pensively staring into the still water. He probably misses Pekoyama, but you’re smart enough to know not to-
“Hey, Kuzuryu! I bet you miss your dead girlfriend, huh?”
He just stares at you, and it takes a good few seconds for you to even realise what you just said out loud. You clap a hand over your mouth, horrified.
“I don’t know why I said that!” You squeak
Kuzuryu doesn’t look...angry? He shakes his head at you and sighs, “you’re acting weird today too, aren’t you?”
“What? Weird? Who’s weird?”
“Owari was here a few minutes ago, bawling her eyes out on the ground.” He crosses his arms and looks away from you, “I think the bear is planning something again.”
You nod sternly, “anyone with tits as big as Owari has nothing to cry about! Something is definitely suspicious.”
Oh god why did you say that??
“Oh god, why did I say that??”
You just keep saying everything you’re thinking!
“I just keep saying everything I’m-“
Kuzuryu grabs you by the wrist and starts tugging you towards the dining hall, “something is definitely fucked up.” He looks down at where his hand is gripping yours, “Jesus Christ, your skin is on fire!”
“Yeah, cause I’m hot !” That was already an embarrassing thing to say, you are horrified when your mouth drops open again to follow it up with, “bow-chicka-wow-wow!”
There is definitely something wrong with you. In general you are the sort of person who takes the time to carefully curate every word that leaves your mouth, the fact that you are just speaking without even thinking about it is bizarre and alarming. The ache in your head is also steadily growing stronger and you’re starting to feel dizzy, maybe you’re just delirious with flu? It doesn't make sense for you to catch the flu on an abandoned island, but weirder things have happened already.
It is at this moment that you realise you have been (only semi-coherently) mumbling your full internal tirade outloud to Kuzuryu, who is now helping you up the stairs to the dining hall. He has very diplomatically, been either ignoring, or at least pretending to ignore everything you have been saying.
“You’re nice. Probably the politest yakuza i’ve ever met.” you pause, “I’ve never met another yakuza, i'm not sure why i said it like that.”
Kuzuryu scoffs and tugs you up at the last step. Deigning to give your comment any sort of response.
As you step up onto the dining hall landing, you freeze. This is dangerous. Your nails are biting into the skin of your palms, and your already warm face feels even hotter. Don't look at him, don't think about him, don't look at him, don't think about him. Kuzuryu is giving you a look, you must be verbalising your own mental gymnastics, but that is less embarrassing than the alternative.
“Don't look at him, don't think about him, don't look at him, don't think-”
You look up, like an idiot . Komaeda is sitting by the window with his chin in his palm, just sort of staring off into the middle distance, not really looking at anything. The morning sun cascades through the window and catches in his hair. It shimmers. Your heart twists and turns in your chest, you have been trying to keep this little fascination of yours under wraps, but he slowly closes his eyes and takes a deep breath in through his nose and-
“He looks like an angel .” You say, and you say it loudly.
All eyes in the room turn to you. Hinata especially is looking at you with his particular brand of exhaustion, that says this is not the first weird thing he has heard today. You scramble, trying desperately to think about anything other than Komaeda, to stop yourself from saying anything stupid. In your desperation, what you say is: “Yes hello! I was talking about anyone in this room apart from Komaeda. Please do not be confused, it was not Komaeda. I want to make it crystal clear that i am NOT attracted to Nagito Komaeda. This is a very convincing lie and you all believe me!”
Mioda straightens her spine and salutes you, “Roger! You are not attracted to Komaeda, I believe you!”
Your sweating even more now, it’s getting hard to breathe, “Forget I said anything!”
Mioda salutes again, “Consider it forgotten!”
“What is happening?! ” Hinata exclaims, gesturing wildly to you, Mioda, and Owari who you suddenly notice is leaning against the far wall and sobbing, “This is not normal!”
Your eyes slip to Komaeda again. He is looking at you and he is blushing-
“He looks so...cute…” You whisper, and Hinata yelps.
“Why are you all being so weird???? ”
Monokuma takes that as his cue to finally show up. Waltzing on into the dining hall like he owns the place, clearly buzzing with excitement, “A good question!” He says, clamoring up onto a vacant chair and holding a paw in front of his face to hide his laughter, “ Oooh , this is my best motive yet! Looks like three members of the class have come down with a bad case of the despair disease!”
“D-Despair Disease?” Tsumiki contributes, nervously playing with her hands, “I’ve never heard of such a thing!”
“Yeah, well. It’s pretty self explanatory!” Monokuma says, “The main symptom is high fever, along with some other fun despair related effects! It’s a bit of a mixed bag though and no two cases are the same! For example, Moida is suffering from the Gullible Disease...Owari has the Cowards Disease.” Then, Monokuma points his stubby little paw in your direction, “And you have the No Filter Disease. You just say whatever you’re thinking! It’s been lots of fun so far, upupupupu~”
“Oh, does that mean all those things they were just saying about Komaeda were the truth?” Sonia says. Her brows draw together, and she taps her lips with a finger, “How interesting.”
“It’s not my fault he’s gorgeous!” the words escape you before you have a chance to stop them. You squeal and clap a hand over your mouth before you start talking again. Komaeda is now bright red to the tips of his ears.
“That was true? GROSS!” Saionji exclaims.
You glare at Monokuma, “If you wouldn't kill me for doing it, I'd rip out all your stuffing right now.”
Monokuma withers a little, “Aw~ Is that what you really feel? Here I was thinking we were great friends.”  
“I’ll gut you like a fish.” you pause, “a bear-fish.” another pause, “a fish-bear.” You groan, “UGH, I can’t stop saying stupid things! I’m all sweaty! This sucks !”
Tsumiki steps over to you, her hand is shaking as she brings it up to your forehead.
“Oh…” you breathe, “your hand is cold.”
“S-Sorry! I’m just checking your temperature.”
“You smell like lavender.”
She recoils a little, “It’s j-just my shampoo!!'' Then she shakes her head and turns to the rest of the group, “Monokuma is telling the truth. They’ve got a fever.”
Hinata hurriedly presses his hand against the foreheads of both Owari and Moida, confirming that they’re also burning up, “What do we do, Tsumiki?”
Before she can answer, Monokuma pipes up again, “did I forget to mention? It’s contagious~~”
Saionji squeals and backpedals all the way to the stairs, “Contagious!?”
“Yeah and I'm a conta- genius . Get it?”
Souda gives you an uncomfortable look and scratches the back of his neck, “How much space in your brain is taken up by bad puns?”
You’re feeling really dizzy now, “A lot of it! But usually I don't say any of them!” your knees wobble and you almost fall over, luckily Tsumiki is still close enough to grab you before you topple to the ground, “I am going to kill that goddamn bear .”
“Could-could someone help me?” Tsumiki squeaks, “If i keep holding them up like this we-we’re just both going to fall over.”
You giggle a little, slipping into a semi-delirium as you cling to Tsumiki for dear life. Hinata and the others start working on a plan to keep everyone safe until the illness runs its course, “Hey Tsumiki…” you whisper, “Komaeda’s got real nice hands, huh?” she is too busy trying to keep you upright to answer, “I want him to carry me. Unless I'm too heavy, Tsumiki, am I too heavy?”  
You’re all but draped over Tsumiki now, who is trying in vain to shuffle you over to a nearby wall, when you suddenly hear her sigh in relief, “Oh...Th-Thank you. I’m not very s-strong…”
You manage to flop your head around to face the other direction, lacking the strength to turn your neck properly. Komaeda is looking down at you, it might just be the fever, but you feel like you’re going to burst into flames.
“Aha, I’m sure i'm not much stronger than you, Tsumiki.” He says, gently wrapping his arm around your shoulders and tugging you over to him. You might have moaned, you can't be sure, “But I do have the height advantage.”
The utter tsunami that leaves your mouth is unavoidable. Literally medically unavoidable, but that doesn't stop it from being the most embarrassing moment of your life.
“He’s touching me. He’s touching me…” your head has come to rest on his chest and you are practically hyperventilating, “He smells like chamomile soap and clean laundry...His hands are cold, his shirt is soft...Oh god i'm so sweaty, he probably thinks i'm disgusting! Komaeda, i'm so sorry , this was meant to be a secret!!! I wasn't going to tell you, everyones gonna think I'm weird!” your thoughts are leaving your mouth faster than you can think of them, if Komaeda is reacting to anything you have to say, you don't notice because despite your mouth running a mile a minute you still have an ounce enough of shame and bury your face in his chest to hide from your own words.
The world is spinning, your head feels heavy, everything is so hot , “Your hair is nice, did you know your hair is nice? God, I've wanted to run my fingers through it since day one. This is so fucked up, you almost killed someone! I want to stop talking , i feel like i'm gonna pass out, i'm gonna pass out, i'm gonna pass out. Im gonna…”
***
“I think I passed out.” Is the first thing you say when you wake up. You’re still hot and the back of your neck is sweaty, but you can see that you are now in the hospital, and that you’re wearing a hospital gown.
“Who undressed me?!” You exclaim, disappointed to find that you still can’t help saying everything you think.
At the sound of your voice, the door to your room opens, and Komaeda steps in.
“No! Not you!”
He freezes, withering under your gaze, “Ah, I see. Being greeted by garbage like me in your current state, it must be insulting .”
You feel like an asshole .
“That’s not what I meant! Please don’t go, I never want you to go.”
Komaeda laughs a little, still lurking nervously in the doorway, “You’re confusing me.”
“I don’t want you to hear what I’m thinking. I want you to stay, but all I can think about is how much I want to suck on your collarbone.” You freeze the second you stop talking, a high pitched whine leaving your mouth as you hide your face in your hands, “I’m so sorry! I can’t stop it!”
Stepping further into the room, Komaeda quietly closes the door behind him. Your heart is pounding.
“I’m nervous.” You say.
He tilts his head, walking over to the side of your bed, “I can still leave if I’m making you uncomfortable.”
“No, I’m not uncomfortable.” You shrink under his gaze, “it just, the way you closed the door it makes me feel like you’re planning something, like maybe we’re going to have-“ you manage to cover your mouth before the rest of the sentence escapes. Keeping your hands tight over your lips as all you can think about is his long fingers, his soft hair, his half lidded eyes.
“Are you...still talking behind your hands?”
You nod.
A smile crawls up the side of his face, “are you saying something embarrassing?”
“I wanna stick my tongue in your mouth.” You say, loud enough that even the tight grip of your hands doesn’t muffle it.
Komaeda remains remarkably calm, “You keep saying those things. This disease...means you say whatever you’re thinking, doesn’t it?”
“Yes. It’s driving me crazy, I’m just being such an idiot and I’m probably freaking you out. I’m sorry.”
“No, that’s not it.” He sighs, moving slowly as he sits down on the side of your bed, “Honestly, why would you let such thoughts about scum like me take up so much real estate in your mind?”
“I can’t help it!” You exclaim, “I’ve been trying not to think about it, but I just can’t! I want you so badly. I…..I-“ you hold your breath, you can’t let that last part out, no matter what, you can’t say that last part. You’ll die of suffocation before you let him hear it.
“You...what?” He asks
Oh god. You can’t stop thinking about it. Your lungs are aching, screaming for you to just open your mouth.
“What are you hiding, hm?”
It’s too much. The nerves, your sick and weakened body, him right there . You can’t do it, you can’t stop it, the next time you see Monokuma, you are drop kicking him into the sun.
“I’ve touched myself while thinking about you!”
The words echo off the walls of the room like a gunshot.
For a moment Komaeda just stares at you, but then, his shaky hands reach out and wrap around both of your wrists. His throat bobs.
“Hng. I want to suck on the side of your neck, I want to see you covered in marks from my teeth-“ you try to cover your mouth with your hands again. Komaeda grips your wrists tighter.
“No.” He whispers, trembling, “keep going.”
“ God, your hands are so big. I want to know how deep your fingers would reach inside of me. I bet you’re good at it, I bet you’re really good at it.” He just keeps staring at you, ghostly green eyes blown wide, chest heaving , “Are you turned on? Is this turning you on? Just pin me down and fuck me, do it, do it, do it!”
“How...how often are you thinking about me like this?”
“Oh, all the time.” You freeze, mentally (and therefore also verbally) berating yourself, “Not all the time! Just like, a normal amount. However much that is.” He is still just looking at you, the pad of his thumb slowly brushes across the pulsepoint in your wrist and you shiver, “Yes, yes! I’ve wanted this intimacy with you for so long . I couldn't tell anyone, I couldn't tell you. During the first trial, when you went on your weirdo rant about hope and despair. I was scared, i was so scared, but oh god- ” you can't stop yourself. Every thought in your head is pouring out of your lips. Filling up the room, the mortification is drowning you . All you can do is squeeze your eyes shut to avoid looking at him, “I was wet , Komaeda. I went back to my cabin and came three times to the thought of you, I am reprehensible . What do you think the others would do if they found out, huh? That all i can think about is you fucking me over my trial podium. They’ll tie me up next-”
The bed squeaks, and Komaeda brings his knee up and over your hips.
“-Oh my god. You’re doing it aren't you?”
His other leg comes up on the bed, and he settles, hovering up above you. He shrugs, “I honestly don't understand why this is something you want,” he leans down over you, resting his palms on either side of your head, “but who am I to deny the wishes of an ultimate.”
If not for the warmth of his lips pressed against yours, you are sure that you wouldn't be able to shut up, based only on the number of thoughts tumbling through your head like they’re on a spin cycle. You are still sweaty with fever and probably look disgusting, but Komaeda shuffles down in between your legs and hikes your hospital gown up to your waist. So you are suitably distracted.
He laughs as he hooks his fingers around your panties and tugs them down your thighs, “I cant believe that you want scum like me to touch you like this. Usually I would assume that you are lying, or taking pity on me.” He grins, running a finger up the length of your sex, “But everything you say to me is your exact thoughts, isnt it?”
“Yes! Touch me, please! ” You’re quivering beneath him, barely able to breathe in between your frantic pleas, “You feel so good, you feel perfect . I want your fingers inside me so bad .”
He hisses as he slips his middle and ring finger inside of you, eyes glued to where your entrance is swallowing him up, “Ahaaa...you’re drenched . You really do want me don't you?” he pistons his fingers in and out slowly, slowly and deliberately, “Someone like you, desiring me so terribly. It’s such a waste , but i can't help it. I must be selfish and take this chance while i can.”
“Not a….waste....” You force out, helplessly grinding on his fingers, “Want you....want only you…”
“Oh- Ohhhh .” He moans, “I can feel you, squeezing around my fingers. You’re so wet...so warm…”
You hear a zipper coming undone, and your thoughts go into overdrive, “oh my god, oh my god. Komaeda’s going to jerk off in front of me, wanna watch, wanna watch! ”
His fingers still inside you for a moment as he tugs his boxers down far enough to slip out his cock. Your eyes follow the movement of his long fingers as he slowly curls them around the base, and tugs them up again, rolling the pad of his thumb over the head. His hips buck, and you moan.
“You...you’re tightening around my fingers…” he breathes, choking on a moan as he pumps his cock again, “you like watching me touch myself?” Your hips stutter, grinding your clit against the meat of his palm as he continues stroking himself. His eyes are wide as he watches you writhing beneath him.
“The face you make when you do that...it’s so cute.” You say, whining as his fingers start moving inside you again, “it’s even cuter than I imagined. Your cheeks are all red.” You swallow, “and your cock is so pretty...I want you to cum inside me, so bad .”
His breath hitches, “you want me to cum, inside you?” his cock is leaking with pre-cum now, painfully hard in his hand. His chest is heaving.
“Yes yes yes! ” You plead, “I want you, please! ”
“I don’t understand.” He breathes, and you whimper as his fingers slip out of you, “How could someone be so desperate for my pathetic seed?”
“Fill me up , Komaeda!” You exclaim, at this point you are long past embarrassed. The words leaving your mouth are the absolute truth and there is no way you can deny them.
He groans at that, an octave deeper than you are used to hearing and it seems he is having trouble denying you. His own desperation mingling with yours and overtaking his painful self-doubt, he wraps a hand around the base of his cock, and slowly edges the swollen head against your entrance, “f-fuck…” he mutters as he slips inside you, “you’re so warm .”
You can barely even register what you are saying anymore, it’s little more than a string of compliments about how good he feels inside you. About how handsome he is. Your tongue feels weird and loose in your mouth from overuse, but you still can’t stop talking.
He looms above you, halo of white hair bouncing as he thrusts in and out of you, the unmistakable jangle of the chain hanging from his jeans. All things that confirm it is Komaeda inside of you. Your heart races with the fact.
“Th-thank you, for permitting me to do this with you.” He stammers, sweat slowly dripping down his brow, “it’s...so good...it feels like I belong inside you. ”
A moan rips through you, and you hook your weak ankles around his waist, “you do belong inside me. You fit so perfectly , I was made for your cock. GOD I sound so filthy…..I- I can’t help it.”
“ No.” He hisses, eyes meeting yours, “Keep talking.”
“You say that like I can stop.” You dip your head lower, and wrap your lips around his left collarbone, moaning as you suck hard enough to leave a bruise. He keens above you, hips snapping against yours even faster, “Your hip bones are digging into my thighs…”
He squeezes his eyes shut, “I-I’m sorry, do you want me to-“
“Don’t you dare stop, Komaeda. You’re mine , I want to feel every inch of you.”
“I don’t want to hurt you.”
You bring a shaky hand up to his cheek, he nuzzles into your palm, “You aren’t hurting me. It feels wonderful.”
He kisses you then, messy and wet, his lips taste like desperation. Even with his tongue tangled with yours, you are still trying to speak. Sweet nothings, forceful demands, anything and everything that comes to mind is trying to force its way out of your mouth. Something is in the pit of your stomach is twisting tight and you moan greedily into the cavern of his mouth as his hips meet yours again. You can feel that he’s losing his rhythm.
“S-sorry. I’m...im close…” A moan rips from his throat and he buries his face in your neck.
Your hips have started canting up to meet his, you want so badly to be close to him, to feel all of him, “M’close to. I love having you inside me, i want to do this again and again and-”
Komaeda freezes, eyes turning to the door on the other side of the room. Footstops.
“Who is it? Did they hear? Are there going to come in? What do you think they’re going to do if they see you inside of-”
Komaeda covers your mouth with his palm. You’re still talking, but at least it’s muffled now. Kuzuryu and Hinata are chatting in the hallway, the footsteps seem only to be growing closer. You can't stop thinking terrible, horrible things, and while Komaeda’s hand keeps you quiet enough that they can't seem to hear you from outside, Komaeda can definitely hear you.
“I wanna keep going.”
His eyes are blown wide, but you feel the tell-tale throb of his cock inside of you, “ What?! ” he hisses, “there’s no way you can keep quiet like this...they’ll definitely hear us.”
“I don’t care if they hear us, I want them to hear us. I want them to know what you’re doing to me.”
His hips twitch, and he bites his lip hard to keep in a moan, “You're not ashamed to be seen intimately with someone as despicable as me?”
You coo at him, running your index finger down the front of his throat and over the mark you left on his collarbone, he tentatively removes his hand from your mouth and pushes some sweaty hair away from your forehead, you smile, “I’m not ashamed of you. I’m in love with you.”
Komaeda sucks a breath in through his teeth, and it is only then that you realise what you have said.
“Oh GOD. I didn't - I'm so sorry.” your eyes are wide, you’re ready for him to jump up and bolt out of the room, “I just thought it and then i said it, and jesus christ im so sorry-”
You’re cut off by his lips. The kiss is gentler, less desperate, but filled with the depth of passion. He starts thrusting in and out of you again, and you gasp in surprise at the feeling. He pulls away from the kiss, and rests his forehead against yours, his breathing heavy as one of his hands slips down under your knee. He pushes your leg up higher and you choke on a moan at how much deeper this new angle feels.
A high-pitched whine leaves his throat as he continues moving inside of you, he swallows, “I...I love you too.”
“Aaah... ahhh .” You’re so close at this point, the coiling in your stomach is about ready to snap, “I love you so much, I want your cum, please! ”
“I’ll give it to you, I...hah...I’ll fill you up...is that what you want?”
His hand slips down to your clit and you shriek , clenching hard around his cock, “Yes, yes, yes! I’m close...i'm so close…”
“I’m gonna...I...I…”
A moan rips through you as your climax finally hits, for the first time this day your mind is void of thoughts. All you can do is feel . Your fingers dig into the bedsheet under you, and your legs tighten around Komaeda’s waist. He writhes and moans above you,  he just keeps going, harder and harder and harder, and then, with a heavy groan you feel him release inside of you.
“Thank...you…” you mutter, “thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you…”
Before Komaeda has a chance to say anything in return, someone clears their throat on the other side of the door. The two of you freeze.
“Are you two done?” Hinata asks, he sounds exasperated.
Komaeda clears his throat, “Um...yeah...pretty much.”
“His dick is literally still inside of me! Maybe give us a few minutes!” You wince at the blunt sentence that just left your mouth, Komaeda is clearly trying not to laugh, you huff “Sorry Hinata! I can't help it!”
This disease was going to be the death of you.

HELLO MY FRIEND!! I’m happy you’re doing requests again!! I hope everything is going great so far (: you gotta do some research for this character is you don’t know him, but here I go!!
Can you do Himiko, Tenko, Celestia, Akane, Sonia, Ibuki, Korekiyo and Maki with a S/O who has a Cutthroat Personality from Akudama Drive??
Thank you :D and im sending lots of hugs along you’re way :)
Hey hey! Things are going great here! How are you?
And I'm sending hugs right back! Thank you very much :3
I did have to do some research, so I hope you like it!
Himiko, Tenko, Celestia, Akane, Sonia, Ibuki, Korekiyo and Maki with an S/O Who's Like Cutthroat (Akudama Drive)
Himiko Yumeno 
She finds you very strange
She heard about you a couple times, but she never really paid much attention
Until she stumbled into you in public, and you started a conversation
You didn't look too evil, so she just said "sure why not" and spent a couple minutes talking to you
You were actually pretty nice, but your childishness threw her off a little bit
And how much you complimented her red hair
For a murderer, you were fairly charming
She's careful around you for a while, but as long as you're not killing her or anyone around her, then you're probably fine
She doesn't understand your love for the color red, but oh well, you do you
She doesn't mind when you act like a child
Or when you start humming children's rhymes out of nowhere
It's just a you thing, so go ahead
She thinks you're a little weird, but she loves you anyway
But the serial killer thing is questionable
Tenko Chabashira 
She doesn't know much about murderers and stuff, so you just look like a regular person when she sees you
She'll approach you and introduce herself
Your friendly, childlike nature made her smile a little bit
And so, she decided to be your friend
She doesn't understand why you like the color red so much, but hey, you do you
She loves listening to you hum nursery rhymes or songs
She'll squeal and hug you, fawning over how cute you are
Now imagine she finds out you're a murderer
If you're a female, she will be very conflicted
She loves you and doesn't want anything to happen to you, and she will ask you not to do it anymore
If you haven't killed since meeting her, she'll be glad about it
But if you're a male...
I'm sorry, but she might straight up dump you
The one male she trusted, and you turned out to be crazy
But that's only if she finds out
If she doesn't, Tenko will live happily with you
Celestia Ludenburg 
She's heard of you, but she doesn't care
One time she saw you in public and decided to approach you
Your completely white clothes caught her interest
She's thinking about how good you'll look in black
Cuz, y'know, vampire butlers
And your personality intrigued her
You were surprisingly friendly for a murderer
She honestly doesn't mind that you're a murderer too much
She'll never let herself get killed, and she has bodyguards to prevent that, anyway
At first, she definitely wanted to convert you to a vampire servant
But she actually becomes to love you for you
She giggles to herself whenever you do anything childish or get excited at red things
She would encourage you to stop killing
She has bodyguards and a huge mansion, so she will protect you
Even though she just wanted a vampire servant out of you at first, she does love who you are
But the offer still stands if you want to
Akane Owari
She has no idea you're a murderer at first
To her, you looked like any other person
And you looked nice, so she introduced herself
Your childishness kind of threw her off, but she doesn't mind
She grew up taking care of her younger siblings, so she can handle it perfectly fine
She finds it endearing and sometimes funny when you get excited seeing the color red
When she catches you humming children's songs, she listens for a minute before gushing about how cute you are
If she finds out the truth about you, she'll be pretty mad that you didn't tell her
But if you hadn't killed anyone since you met her, then she'll ask you to stop doing it
She doesn't want you getting hurt or even worse: executed
But if she never finds out, you just live your life as a normal person with her
And Akane loves all of you, so it'll all be okay
Sonia Nevermind 
So.
We know how she feels about serial killers
She knows all about you and thought you were more interesting than a lot of other killers
And when she saw you in public, she recognized you right off the bat
And she approached you with stars in her eyes, asking you questions
It surprised her to find out how friendly you actually were when she introduced herself
And how childish and innocent you seemed
You were definitely different from other serial killers she read about
She thinks it's really cute when you get excited when you see the color red
But when you're actually in a relationship, she wouldn't want you to kill anymore
She doesn't want anything to happen to you
In the end, Sonia is probably the only one who doesn't mind that you're a serial killer
Actually, she's one of two who don't mind
Ibuki Mioda 
She's not really caught up with these sort of things, so she had no idea you were a murderer
She just thought you looked cool and wanted to get to know you
And the way you acted innocent and childlike kind of resonated with her
She loves hearing you humming children's rhymes
Would definitely join you when you do it
The way you got excited about red things kind of weirded her out, but that's a you thing, so she won't judge
She probably won't figure out you're a killer unless you tell her
Even if she hears people talk about you, she wouldn't believe them
If you do tell her, she'll be shocked and freak out a little
But then you'll swear to never do it again, and she'll take your word for it
Or you can never say anything, and she'll probably never find out
Whether you tell her or not, Ibuki will love you for what makes you you
Korekiyo Shinguji
He is very fascinated by you
Nobody can tell that you're a murderer just by glancing at you
At least, anyone who doesn't know who you are
He does, and he wanted to talk to you the second he saw you
He finds your childlike nature to be very charming
When you start humming children's rhymes, he'll just sit and watch you
And also very endearing
He's a killer himself, but for an entirely different reason than whatever your motives are
He would probably want to see your kills in action, honestly
And he'll watch you admire the blood with a smile
He loves when you get excited about something, even when it's blood
Korekiyo probably appreciates you the most
He's a killer too, so he can't really judge you
And if any cops try to bring you back to your execution, he won't hesitate to kill them too
Maki Harukawa 
Whoops I forgot to add her in until after I posted this She knew exactly who you were
She knows all the local serial killers
But you didn't look like you were doing much, so she decided to say hey
Just because she knew what you did doesn't mean she knows what your personality is like
So you can imagine her surprise when she found out that you were actually friendly and kind of childish
She knew her fair share of killers, but not like you
If she saw you at first glance, she never would've guessed that you were a murderer
She was curious, so she decided to get to know you
She may act like your childishness is annoying, but she does crack a smile when you start humming children's songs
She stops what she's doing and listens to you with a small smile
She doesn't understand your love for the color red, but oh well, you do you
Now, she really wants to stop killing, and she wants you to do the same
She doesn't want you to get hurt, or God forbid, executed
Whether you do or not is up to you
But Maki understands you, even though your backgrounds are different
And she loves you, no matter how strange you are

Alright, so, I'm well aware that the antag series revolves around her and Hajime, but I kinda wanna know more about her relationship with Nagito, Mikan, and Kazuichi during the tragedy and after the neo world program
I'm really hooked to this series, but can you blame me lmao-
i can’t blame you nonny, antag reader series is literally all i think about anymore, literal brain rot. this is basically just like?? a character analysis essay type thing? i’m so sorry it’s so long, i just got soooo into it
Request for: antag reader (Mikan Tsumiki, Kazuichi Souda, Nagito Komaeda) Warnings: despair things, face swap mention, spoilers, manipulation and bad friending :( ~~~
Mikan Tsumiki (and like a pinch of Junko Enoshima):
The Tragedy: So basically the whole thing with (Y/n) is that her parents were just so overcritical to the point where it rooted her complex and felt like they never loved her, right? So basically, Junko was able to attack that by showing her the bare minimum affection and introducing Mikan into the mix, who was in a similar boat with being unloved. Junko made them both feel as though she was the best love they could ever have and then made them compete for it at any opportunity she could.
Mikan always loved Junko but she doesn’t love (Y/n) the same way and vice versa, despite that, they do both care for each other very deeply. They desire no relationship in each other and even view each other as rivals who happen to find somewhat of a friendship together. Mikan thinks, and always has, that (Y/n) is much more talented and worthy of Junko than she is. However, (Y/n), being deeply insecure far below the surface - never stopped thinking that Mikan was more beautiful and worthy of Junko than she was.
They find both comfort and hatred in each other due to Junko making them act as competition. They both know the pain of Junko’s rejection but they also both know that if the other was out of the way, they could have Junko all to themselves.
When (Y/n) found out Mikan took Junko’s womb, it was a betrayal due to the fact that she didn’t know beforehand, Mikan had never said anything about taking Junko’s uterus. And on top of that, she found out that Mikan had tried conceiving a despair child during their separation. Even though neither of them loves each other, they know their relationship can be viewed as lovers - they often view it as such themselves - and so, (Y/n) felt as though Mikan had cheated on her. She basically had. Even so, she still knows that nothing could make her hate Mikan, she doesn’t love her as she did Junko, but she loves her more than any other woman she’d ever known. Mikan is the only grounding she’s ever known and the only person to ever relate to her on such an intimate level.
Going back to the feeling of Mikan being prettier than her, (Y/n) stole Junko’s face entirely because of that feeling of inferiority. She never told Mikan because she was ashamed to admit that she was insecure, it would make her imperfect to be insecure.
Overall, she’s never loved Mikan as a girlfriend but they’ve always been all the other had during The Tragedy despite their ‘rivalry’ and insecurities surrounding the other.
After Neoworld: (Y/n) is definitely nervous to be around Mikan because of their history with each other and Junko. Before Mikan wakes up from the program she’s constantly worried about if the nurse will hate her or be disgusted by her. The way Mikan had treated her right before her execution hinted at some tenderness buried beneath discontent, but that could always change. When Mikan wakes up she immediately looks for (Y/n) on pure instinct.
They definitely try to help each other heal and cope with Junko’s manipulation and lies. They both have come to realize that Junko never loved either of them and they didn’t love each other - any of the comforts they had gathered in The Tragedy was a lie and they help each other through that realization.
“You’re more than what she made you.” is a common phrase between them because they know she only made them compete for her own entertainment and their despair.
It was cruel and they have to live with every emotional and physical scar from that time. But they still have each other.
Any sense of rivalry has dripped away from their bond and is now wholly intertwined by genuine friendship and connection. By their experiences and how they’re growing away from Junko and into themselves. Eventually, all their conversations stop being about Junko and healing and start being about a pretty shell Mikan found on the beach. Or how the water looks so inviting, they should go for a swim.
Or how the chairs need repainting.
Or how some flowers outside the front door would be lovely.
Or how good breakfast was this morning.
Kazuichi Souda:
The Tragedy: Kazuichi wasn’t as “enamored” with (Y/n) as he was Sonia, but he respected her Ultimate and higher intelligence enough to also refer to her as ‘miss’ when they went to school. Though he largely stopped calling her ‘Miss (Y/n)’ during The Tragedy he still respects her a lot and is even a little scared of her sometimes. Again, she’s way smarter than he is - she’s not a super genius like Izuru but she’s a smart cookie and he’s not so delusional to think he’s near her in intellect. So the fact she can copy his Ultimate status and be smarter than most people in their class is quite intimidating for him at times.
Because of the confidence she projects and her charisma and, again, higher intelligence than his, he often follows her word and example without much thought. Like if he saw her jump off a cliff, he would probably go along with it because he knows she probably has some plan to get out of the situation safely.
(Y/n) views Kazuichi sort of as a little brother - but one that follows you around like a puppy and always bugs you. She doesn’t expect much other than blind support from him and kind of accepts that he’s her “sidekick” so to speak. They didn’t view each other as equals or even true comrades - (Y/n) was always just better and that went unquestioned. She definitely used him to gain without putting much thought into the long-term of their relationship.
After Neoworld: Kazuichi had regained his memories in chunks as they left the program and at least could recall being so-called friends with (Y/n). When they awoke, they didn’t talk to each other that often since Kazuichi was extremely bitter about how she’d treated them all in the program (and him as a Remnant) and so she was left alone with Hajime.
It’s only as she actually begins healing and expressing more humane traits that he starts talking to her again. Neither apologizes for anything specific, they just aren’t those kinds of people and both parties can let it go easy enough - they’d both done horrific things and they know that. He invites her into his warehouse to take apart the Monokumas, he offers to go on walks along the beach with her - he finds it nice to be in her presence again.
Because even after what they’d been through, I feel like he does still deeply respect her due to her talent. He just also has gained more confidence in himself while in the program and therefore has more sense to not let her control his actions. Which, he finds that she hasn’t tried doing and that always encourages him to keep coming back.
Kazuichi thrives on positive feedback and (Y/n) knows this, so every time she can she’s expressing how much he means to her as a dear companion - both of them being hesitant to actually label themselves friends. Especially Kazuichi, who had already been hit by poor friendship and trust issues, remembering that (Y/n) used him during The Tragedy makes his brain go fuzzy on how he feels about her. Sometimes he’s angry and other times he forgives her wholeheartedly because he knows she’s sick and he wants her to be able to maintain the friendships that he’s able to.
I think it’s after she apologizes to everyone, pre-Nagito waking up but post Gundham and Nekomaru, that he really just lets go of everything.
It’s not easy to forget that he was just her tool but he knows that she’s better now and they start hanging out more often, by themselves, having a good ol’ time talking about absolute nonsense.
Respect turns into admiration.
Nagito Komaeda:
The Tragedy: So I’d already mentioned that (Y/n) influenced him into becoming Servant, but I wanna expand on that before digging into anything else. At heart, Nagito is a people pleaser to the Ultimates, and none more than the copycat who can master pretty much anything she wants. During their school years, she didn’t see anyone as her equal and that resonated with Nagito’s inferiority complex and while she hates people who have no confidence, she would hate to be like everyone else more. So she kinda just accepted the servitude that came with befriending Nagito on the first day of school up until The Tragedy where he practically begged her to take him with her wherever she went.
She was the first one to really hold onto his chain, both literally and metaphorically. He joined the Ultimate Despair with Junko to create a despair to overcome, but only (Y/n) was allowed to actually touch him - or else he started throwing a huge fit. 
In order to spread despair and crush Nagito’s everlasting obsession with hope, she probably intentionally ignores and neglects him when he needs her.
This largely means when he’s mourning/remembering his parents and dog or his illnesses or when he’s falling into despair and needs her to pull him out, she’s just watching and doing nothing.
In fact, when Nagito had brought up his plans to join the Warriors of Hope he was really hoping she’d speak against it, and she didn’t. She actually encouraged it. Pushing him to leave her alone and join the WOH. It hurt, of course, it would, but he left all the same and they hadn’t spoken since despite their ‘friendship’. (Y/n) never bothered going after him, again to crush his love of hope. 
She left him unhinged, alone, sick to fend for himself until he found the WOH, and even when he found them - she didn’t seem to care whether they let him live or killed him.
After Neoworld: Honestly? To say that she mourns Nagito, and her entire relationship with Nagito, is a huge fucking understatement. Especially as the others begin waking up and Hajime helps her grow, she just gets more and more depressed over her situation with Nagito. And as he takes longer and longer to wake up, she begins to accept that she was horrible to him and doesn’t deserve his forgiveness.
Before The Tragedy even, since they’d met. She always treated him with as little human respect as she could - she did it with everyone but especially him. He was basically just a little errand boy she liked to talk to and she didn’t treat him as more. During their time in despair, she was barely around for him, only holding him together when the others pushed her to do it because he was being annoying. She was so awful to the man she always claimed was her closest friend. And she wants him to hate her for it so bad.
Then he wakes up and he sees her and he smiles. He could never hate her and it only makes her feel worse.
Nagito sees how much she’s changed and he begins changing too, she tells him about how Hajime has helped her so much and he begins to follow her around with Hajime. She’s worried he’ll consider himself her lapdog again but it’s cleared up when he doesn’t run to her side one morning out of the few left before they leave.
In fact, it’s when he doesn’t speak to her for hours on end she realizes that every interaction they had was under his free will and choice. 
He doesn’t do her chores for her. She doesn’t watch him fall apart silently. They talk like friends do. Not about how talentless people are worthless or how hope is all that matters but about how they can’t wait to rebuild their favorite hangout spots and make better memories there together.
They sort of have an unannounced “restart” where they just wipe the slate clean, mostly on (Y/n)’s part so she can treat Nagito how he deserves. As a true friend rather than a pawn.

Pokemon SwSh GPL AU: Character Headcannons P1
(From this point on, I am calling this Pokemon Sword and Shield AU the GPL AU after the Galarian Pokemon League). Here are my character headcannons! I am going to give each character and age and a general ethnicity even though A) time will pass in this au and B) obviously there are no countries in Pokemon. I will be giving them an age based on when the AU starts, at the beginning on Gloria’s Pokemon League Journey. 
Tumblr media
GLORIA:
-Age: 16
-Ethnicity: Half English, Half Japanese (English father, Japanese mother)
-General Headcannons: 
o  She is an introverted extrovert. She loves meeting new people and making new friends, but she is on the quiet side due to her troubled relationship with her father. 
o  Going off of that, her parents got a divorce when she was 6 years old because her father was negligent. She has not been in contact with him since he left, but he is at the base of some of her social anxiety. That is why she mostly speaks either in short sentences or not at all (going off her interactions in the game). 
o  The thing that makes Gloria stand out as a Pokemon trainer is that she can pick up on her opponents nuances just by examining them. For example, if her opponent’s breathing quickens, she knows that they are nervous and will resort to mainly attacks. That is why it is so hard for her to beat Leon: He has an emotionless mask during his battles.
o  She picked up this strategy by watching GPL battles throughout her childhood. Gloria was often put in front of the television set to distract her from her parents fighting, and since she had to put so much of her attention towards the matches, she picked up on a lot of people’s ticks. 
o  Gloria is very clingy to Hop. She finds comfort in being near him, so she is often latching onto his arm, hugging him from behind, or holding his hand. The closer she gets to people, the more she hangs onto them. This is rough with Bede and Bea, so it takes a bit of work on both their ends to make sure they’re not making the other party unhappy. 
o  Gloria is ridiculously brave. She will go into pretty much any situation, which is why she just goes along when asked to join the dojo/go on an expedition. 
o  Speaking of expeditions, she looks up to Peony as the father figure she never had. She doesn’t outwardly tell him this because A) her relationship with her father really messed her up and B) the fact that he is related to Rose makes her a little wary. She knows how much Rose messed up Bede and does not want to cause more grief. 
o  Speaking of Bede, they actually become really close friends after the League wraps up and during Rose’s trial. Bede is one of the only people that can emphasise with her social anxiety, and luckily for him, Gloria doesn’t give up on people. She has to work on not being clingy with him because he does not like being touched. 
o  Gloria is the first female champion! 
o. Victor exists in this au, but not until way after Gloria’s first year as champion. He is her half brother; her father eventually remarried in Stow-In-Side and had Victor a year-ish later (making him 7 years younger than Gloria). They do not reunite until she is 20 years old, but she accepts him as her brother easily (she knows how terrible their dad is). 
o  Gloria’s full name is Gloria Park. She does not have a middle name. 
(I took the most liberties with Gloria because she is the MC and the game doesn’t give toooo much of a character. I know a lot of people head cannon her as super extroverted and confident, but I preferred this take for this particular AU).
Tumblr media
HOP:
-Age: 16
-Ethnicity: Half Spanish, Half Black (His mom is Spanish, his dad is black)
-General Headcannons: 
o  Hop’s dad died when he was 2 years old, so he doesn’t really remember him. He never really had a father figure since Leon left to become Champion when he was 6. That is where is anxiety is rooted: Both his father (who was a firefighter and treated like a hero after his death) and Leon’s success makes Hop feel like he has to do something grand to live up to them. 
o  Hop actually befriended Gloria through their love of Pokemon battles! His mum invited her mum over for dinner, and while his and Gloria’s interactions were stiff at best during dinner, they really clicked after when they began watching the game on the TV. They’ve been inseparable ever since. 
o  I headcannon that Hop has ADD. He practically never sits still and has a hard time paying attention to things unless he is hyper focused. Hop is really booksmart, he just has trouble focusing. He also doesn’t really see the point in maintaining his grades when he’s just going to become the new Champion.
o  He played soccer when he was little as an outlet for his ADD. He joined the GJPL (Galar Junior Pokemon League), but since he was in a small district, he never made it to the big times like Bede. He did manage to score fairly well with his wooloo, though, making him one of the MVPs in the 76th GPL.
o  Hop is a nickname. HIs full name is “Hipoltio Henry Hoffman”. (Henry was his father’s name).
o Like Gloria, Hop is a really touchy person. They kind of rubbed off on each other, so he shows affection by linking arms, bumping shoulders, ect. 
o  After the GPL wraps up and he gets asked to be Sonia’s assistant, she gives him the opportunity to study abroad until he graduates high school. He takes this opportunity and briefly moves to study other Pokemon in Johto. He does come back to visit in the summer, which is why he ends up on the Isle of Armor around the same time as Gloria. 
Tumblr media
BEDE:
-Age: 17
-Ethnicity: White 
-Headcannons:
o   He never met his parents, but he was told he was taken away from them by child protective services. This made him really bitter from the get-go because they never came back for him.
o   Bede has abandonment issues, but in a different way from Gloria. While she is willing to let anyone in, he is more prone to shut everyone out. He only starts to open up when he realizes Gloria’s life isn’t as perfect as he originally guessed.
o   Bede reeeeaaaallllyyyy doesn’t like being touched. He got into a lot of fights in the orphanage when he was younger because of his short temper. That is barely the tip of the iceberg: There was a lot of shady things that happened at the orphanage that only stopped once Chairman Rose started showing interest in him. Bede doesn’t talk about this to anyone.
o  Bede participated in the GJPL and made it to the championships two years in a row! He got to travel to Hoenn for one of them and meet the champion there. This was what brought Rose’s attention to him. 
o  The reason Bede didn’t join the league at 16 was because Rose didn’t sponsor him yet. Because of this, he decided to challenge Raihan for his position as gym leader of Hammerlocke. Sufficed to say, Bede lost pretty badly. 
o  He was very convinced that Rose was going to adopt him, which made his dismissal ten times worse than it originally was. He eventually comes to term with the fact that the Chairman used him and threw him under the bus when he realised that he could get in trouble for destroying the monument. 
o  Opal becomes his guardian when he accepts his new role as the Fairy Gym Leader, but she officially adopts him about a year later. He isn’t very good at talking about his emotions, but he does care deeply for the old woman and her acceptance of him brought him to tears. 
o   Bede gave himself his middle name: Steven, after Hoenn’s Champion Steven Stone. His full name is Bede Steven Doe pre-adoption, and Bede Steven Waltz post-adoption. 
o  He is super prickly, but after becoming gym leader, Bede mellows out a little bit. He is still haughty and self absorbed, but he is not as outwardly rude about it. 
o  He ends up forming a lot of unlikely relationships after he settles in his position as gym leader. He and Bea get along really well because of their proximity and similar personalities, Gloria won’t let him not be her friend (he has a soft side for her), and Marnie is one of the less eccentric gym leaders that he likes to hang around with at group gatherings. 
Tumblr media
MARNIE:
-Age: 16
-Ethnicity: White
-Headcannons:
o   Marnie is the youngest of 5 children, and she is the only girl. Therefore, she was always coddled by her family. One of the biggest reasons she joined the pokemon league was to prove her true worth to her family.
o   Out of all her siblings, she is the closest to Piers. She doesn’t agree with his opposition to dynamaxing, but they are both passionate about restoring glory to Spikemuth. He also spent the most time with her when they were growing up because her parents worked a lot (Spikemuth is a poverty-stricken town). 
o   Marnie is quite the little activist. It is a little ironic because she is incredibly soft-spoken and will swear up a storm at the same time. 
o   She gains a lot of fans during her GPL alongside Gloria because they are both favourites to become the first female champion. Instead of forming a bitter rivalry with her, Marnie elects to befriend Gloria because she reminds her of her friend, Primrose. 
o   Marnie LOVES shopping. She never really had the chance to leave Spikemuth growing up, so a lot of her free time when not participating in Pokemon battles is spent in boutiques. 
o   One of Marnie’s special skills is that she can see right through a person’s core. That is why she is initially kind to Gloria, Hop, and Bede. On the other hand, she and Piers both constantly talk shit about Chairman Rose. She isn’t really a fan of Leon either, but she knows that he is a good person so she tries to be nice.
o   Speaking of Leon (to some degree), she immediately decides to befriend Hop when she realises he is also the younger sibling of a famous Pokemon trainer. They bond over their similar roles in life and their shared love of music! (Hop really likes Piers’s music and freaks out when he gets to meet him). 
o   Marnie can play the guitar and the piano! If she didn’t become a gym leader, she could definitely see herself going into music. 
o  I head cannon that Marnie is bisexual, but she is not currently aware of it. I will definitely talk more about this later in the AU or if I actually get around to writing a one shot. 
o  Her full name is Marnie Isla Lewis. 
Next Part: Gym Leaders!
