the funny thing is that I keep in touch with my parents so little that sometimes I wonder how they think they know me at all, much more how they think they know me better than myself

The May prompts from @calaisreno continues! Today's prompt : box
Chapter 2 of The Luckiest Girl in the World.
Summary: John bans Rosie's teddy bear from dining with them, which sends the toddler into a tantrum of sherlockian proportions. Cunning women to the rescue.
Two Years Old
The teddy bear Mum had bought me before I was born, was my favourite plushie. That is to say, my favourite plushie to toss around and force to do things a plushie isn’t supposed to be forced to do. Eating, for example. Dad forbade me to bring him to the table after I’d smeared his face with Bolognese sauce. To this day, it’s still visible stains of tomato sauce on Ted’s face.
My temper as a toddler, was apparently just as fierce as Dad’s according to Sherlock, the man I named Lock when I was around 18 months old. The tantrums I pulled when Ted was banned from the kitchen table, could be heard all the way down to 221A and Nana.
“Are you two trying to kill my goddaughter?” she scoffed when she came up to investigate.
“Of course not, Hudders. I don’t commit crimes, I solve them,” Sherlock retorted.
Nana was totally unfazed by this statement, muttering something about a stolen ashtray, before she fussed over me, trying to calm me down. She was partly successful and sat down beside me with Ted in her lap, letting him watch me eat my fish fingers and carrots, but denying me to feed him. I’ve been told I pouted quite a lot during the meal.
***
My second godmother, Molly Hooper, came to visit the next day, bearing gifts. Nana had evidently sought her out for advice.
“It’s not her birthday yet, Molly,” Dad complained, not wanting me to be more spoiled than I already was.
“I know that,” Molly said affronted. “It’s not for Rosie, but for Ted.”
“You bought gifts for a stuffed animal?” Sherlock inquired astounded by this curious gesture.
“I did. Do you want to open it for him, Rosie?” Molly asked me.
I didn’t need any persuasion and ripped the gift paper to shreds in no time. Inside the box was a soft drawstring bag, and inside the bag were a variety of lively coloured foods made of plastic. Corn, carrot, cod, cutlet, grapes, potato, sausage, broccoli, cauliflower, tomato, pear, lemon and two bananas.
“Food for Ted!” Molly announced and looked expectantly at me along with Dad and Sherlock.
I beamed at her and gave her a tight hug, before I fetched Ted to let him look at all the delicacies he could look forward to at dinner that night.
Even Sherlock admitted that Molly was quite the genius after that clever purchase.
“I only surround myself with proper intelligent people,” he told Dad when he pointed it out.
“High praise, Sherlock,” Dad teased him.
“Don’t push your luck, John,” Sherlock huffed, but I heard the smile in his voice.

Anime recs for The Radiant Emperor enjoyers
I was watching the new Ooku anime on Netflix some weeks ago and I thought it hit that ”court drama dealing with gender roles and making me cry” spot that He Who Drowned the World has been occupying in my heart lately (even if it engages with some of these themes very differently).
Somehow that got me thinking about other anime that might align with the vibes and themes in The Radiant Emperor book series and eventually came up with this list.
Some of those themes include gender roles, queerness, disability, politics, oppression, rebellion, revenge, impossible and messy relationships and tragedy. Darker themes like war, violence, sexual assault etc are also often present. Please lmk if you agree or disagree with these choices and feel free to add more!
Tumblr media
Dororo (2019)
Historical fantasy based on Osamu Tezuka’s manga classic from the 1960s.
An orphan who hides her gender in order to survive meets a young man who fights demons to claim back his body parts that his father traded away in a demonic pact. There’s tons of pain and tough moral questions and complicated family relationships, and the way Hyakkimaru deals with having lost and then slowly regaining parts of himself is super interesting.
24 episodes. Stream on Prime Video, Hidive
Tumblr media
The Heike Story (2022)
Retelling of the historical epic Heike monogatari through the eyes of an orphan girl who gains the ability to see supernatural things after her father’s passing. Inevitability of fate, the impermanence of all existence, praying for your loved ones’ happiness in the next life, all of these things are beautifully woven in this visually stunning story. The story also hits different when you know that Heike monogatari was traditionally performed by blind musicians and singers.
11 episodes. Stream on Cruncyroll, Apple TV
Tumblr media
Inu-oh (2022)
Historical fantasy. Two outcasts find each other and change the history with their music in this story that also pays respect to the Heike monogatari’s origin as a singing tradition. Focus on things like identity, disability, nonconformity, ghosts. Yes, the ghosts part is important. Also, the gender expressions and the bond between the two main characters is something I’ve seen a lot of queer/trans ppl relate to and Inu-oh is voiced by none other than the trans icon Avu-chan.
Movie. Stream on Hulu
Tumblr media
Ōoku: The Inner Chambers (2023)
Alternate history where most men in Japan have been wiped out by a mysterious disease. Very much a court drama centered in the Tokugawa shogun’s residence where men serve the woman shogun as concubines (and sometimes have relationships with each other). Also, one of the main characters is a monk who ends up giving up his vows! Based on Fumi Yoshinaga’s acclaimed manga that has also been adapted to various live action movies and drama series.
10 episodes. Stream on Netflix
Tumblr media
Toward the Terra (2007)
Scifi classic with two main characters who are at the opposing sides but feel inexplicably connected. There’s just so many insane relationships and emotions here, I still have not recovered from the ”I want to kill you but I will also protect you with my own life” thing…… Based on the 1970s manga by Keiko Takemiya. Not to be confused with the movie from 1980.
24 episodes. Available on DVD
Tumblr media
Devilman Crybaby (2018)
Apocalyptic fantasy with demons and stuff. Based on the classic 1970s manga by Go Nagai.
I don’t even know how to describe the story, it’s just the tragedy, the queer yearning, the ”I killed the one I loved and then it was too late”, the ”things will get bad and then they will get worse” vibe that I think is very fitting. This one has the most extreme violent and sexual content out of the series on this list.
10 episodes. Stream on Netflix
Tumblr media
Banana Fish (2018)
Gang wars, mystery drugs and complicated emotions set in New York. Based on the iconic 1980s manga by Akemi Yoshida. Deals heavily with trauma and CSA.
You guessed right, this one is also a tragedy. If you love Ouyang and/or Baoxiang, you’re probably going to love Lee Yut-Lung. That’s all I’m going to say.
24 episodes. Stream on Amazon Prime

I don’t know what to do w this thought bc there is no plot but I’ve been thinking a lot abt stucky Wandavision au w belly kink and it’s just all sweet and innocent at first yk 1950s all pg and sweet and it just dives into an absolutely kinky hellfest of Bucky stuffing Steve making him burst out of his suit each decade with just a fatter Steve with different popular foods of the era and is KSBDKD ekem anyways -🐮
This is gonna be another case of me admitting that I am not a good Marvel fan because... I didn't watch WandaVision 🫣🫣 BUT you're a goddamn genius because that concept is so hot.
With every decade, Steve gets fatter. Fatter and fatter and fatter. Testing the limits of all these different styles of clothes. Finding new favorite types of food. Each morning, Steve leaves their home a little larger and a little slower until... maybe he won't be leaving at all 😳
Warning for stucky belly kink, (probably) historical inaccuratacies, weight gain, stuffing, clothes destruction/tight clothes, immobility, some name calling (pig, whale, etc.), and all that kinky goodness below.
1950s
Tumblr media
I'm thinking about the excess that was the 1950s in America.
The post-WWII booming economy lends itself to this picture-perfect life that is seemingly within reach (if you were white, middle class, and heterosexual). A house, a car, a dog, children, etc. And all this overflow - this excess speeds up Steve's gain like nothing else. Bucky is a stay-at-home house husband, while Steve goes out to work; so, that also speeds Steve's gain because Bucky has to keep himself busy, he's got to do something other than clean, launder clothes, pay bills, or whatever. Cooking and grocery shopping fills most of his time in a way he enjoys.
Bucky always ends up cooking too much - making too much food for just the two of them. Then, because he's made too much, he overuses ingredients, and he has to go back to the store to get more... maybe he should get more when he's there? Right? He needs to buy more ingredients so he doesn't have to come as often. Steve ate everything Bucky cooked anyway, so it's not like it was actually too much, right?
Right?
So, at the start of the decade, Steve is nice and strapping. Under his pressed shirt, suit jacket, suspenders, and trousers, he's got a full fucking six pack, tight, high pecs, and broad as hell shoulders with legs that go on for days. But Bucky is getting good at building a soft husband. With every dish he perfects, every meal he cooks, he gets closer and closer to a chubby husband. Every day.
Hamburger, tuna fish, and chicken casseroles; meat loaf; fried chicken and deep-fried vegetables; mac and cheese; spam and canned ham; spareribs and salisbury steak; hot dogs; buttery mashed potatoes; banana cream pies, cherry angel food cake, and pineapple upside-down cake... all popular foods that Steve readily eats. And eats.
No matter how much Bucky makes, Steve will try to finish it all. He deeply appreciates being cooked for and he wants to show his appreciation. Even if, at the start, not everything is perfect.
If Steve doesn't finish it all by dessert, Bucky knows it will be gone by the time he wakes up with Steve in the morning. Steve gets up for work, Bucky gets up to make his hardworking husband breakfast, sending him off with a full belly (nevermind the fact that Steve is still gurgling through his dinner from the day prior and his midnight snack turned midnight feast).
Anyway-
Steve becomes accustomed to coming come from a long day at work to delicious smells emanating from the kitchen. It's never long before Bucky comes out, full frilly apron and all, and steers Steve into their dining room, sitting him down and serving up all the different dishes he's made for that day in a seemingly endless stream.
Steve compliments and moans his way through all of the dishes. Trying every single one. Not just trying a bite of each, but eating the lion's share of every dish. He makes sure Bucky has his fill, but everything else goes toward Steve. He can't help it. He's a stubborn, determined guy. Even if it didn't taste good (which it does, Steve could be convinced he's in heaven), Steve would be eating it all. But it does taste good. And he wants his husband to know he's doing good. So... down it all goes.
Until, by the time dessert is rolled own, Steve has his hands flat on the table over top of his knife and fork where they rest on his placemat. His glass is empty for now, he's gulped down glass after glass of milk with his meal, and he'll have a few more before he's done - the fatty drink bloating him by filling in all the cracks that fold can't fit into. Steve's got his head bowed, and his chest is heaving. Eyes squeezed shut.
Full.
"F-full," Steve puffs out, his lips slick. But, he's not done.
As he's stuffed his face, his tie has shifted to the side, exposing his shirt buttons. A while ago, Bucky helped him messily roll up his shirt sleeves as to not get them (more) dirty. He looks disheveled. Every shallow breath leaves his stretched stomach expanding more, truly testing the limits of his previously nicely starched shirt. Now his shirt is stained. He isn't a messy eater, but with all he's eating, there's no way that he wouldn't drop something on his swelling belly, beginning to split his suspenders apart and crush his belted slacks down.
The more often they do this, the more they settle into this time period, the more the buttons of Steve's shirts gape - little diamonds growing between each button, exposing more and more of his ribbed undershirt.
Someday, they're gonna bust. Coming off one by one. Pop. Pop. Pop. Bucky's toes curl just thinking about it. The release of each one, too tight, Steve's pot belly - his swelling gut, a beer gut under construction - forcing them to come flying off. Then, his belly rounding out. Expanding into the new space. Happy to be released and ready for more with the added space and freedom.
1960s
Tumblr media
Bucky mourns the loss of visible straining buttons with the change of fashion following the decade. Or, actually, he mours the loss right up until he gets to stuff his heavier husband again. In his new clothes.
Then, when he does stuff him in this new style (with new foods, of course), Bucky is suddenly much happier. Not just from stuffing him. He's much happier because, as it turns out, the buttons being hidden isn't that bad. Not at all 🤤
With his stuffy little sweater over his dress shirt, covering his tie and gaping buttons and struggling, worn-out belt, Bucky suddenly gains a whole new level of appreciation for sweaters - the sweater makes him look even chunkier. A layer of softness over his softness. Rounding him out even more. Padding him just that little bit more.
The sweater balloons out and out, showing the indents of each straining button underneath until...
His belly gets to be too much, too big, and his sweater creeps up, showing off the bottom of his button-up shirt where it's getting tugged out of his unbearably tightly belted pants.
That little sliver of his shirt. Exposed. It makes Bucky crazy.
And, oh, there's the waist band of his pants (not for long, his belly will start hanging over before long), too. A little bit.
Just a peak.
A tease that leaves Bucky unable to do anything but feed Steve a whole course by hand, packing food into him with the goal to push the hem of his sweater up higher and higher on the dome of his gut. He wants that dress shirt to come untucked from the stretch he's putting Steve's tummy through, too.
He wants it.
He wants to see the slow, drawn-out progression. The tease. Up and up and up; rounder and rounder and rounder.
Another perk of the sweater is the heat it brings. Steve's a big, growing boy, so he already gets hot fast. But, it only gets worse with his fat and added sweater insulation. Now when he stuffs himself - or when Bucky stuffs him - he turns the prettiest pink then red. Glistening with sweat. 🥵
Overtaxed.
Overheated.
Overfed.
More and more every day, more and more every year, Steve looks more overfed. Fatter. Heavier. Rounder.
(That might be the part about time, how it blends into a montage of growth.)
Sweaters and vests aren't Bucky's favorite 60s trend, though. Far from it. Bucky's favorite thing about the 60s is how suddenly everyone is into finger foods.
Deviled eggs, skewered meatballs in sweet-and-sour sauce, celery stuffed with cream cheese, cheese balls, etc. Anything you can eat with your hands, no silverware. Also, with the finger food comes dips. Clam dip, onion dip, and many more that Bucky would've never thought to make on his own. Dips for dipping little bits of food gripped between fingers.
And finger foods are fucking awesome because Steve eats then messily. At first, he shoves them inhumanly fast into his face, moaning and gasping and sighing. He comes home feeling starved (re: after not being stuffed to the brim, hardly able to move, during the workday), and seeing all the little pieces of food turn him into a monster. A hungry beast. He plows through the little morsels. Never getting enough. Steve uses one hand to settle his swelling gut, and his other hand blurs as he rapidly goes between trays of food and his mouth. Again, eating like an animal. An animal of Bucky's making - he trained him to eat like a pig after all.
When Steve finally slows down, rubbing his tummy and patting it, trying to get his belly to digest faster so he can have more, Bucky gets to swoop in. Another reason finger foods are fucking great. He picks up the little foods delicately and tucks them into Steve's still watering mouth.
With every mouthful, Steve's lips and tongue brush his fingers. It's electric, the wet, hot, slick feeling of his mouth. Pure sin.
Bucky's hands are close enough to Steve to feel it when he moans or when he burps, the hot rush of desperate air. Steve only burps around Bucky's fingers when it comes up so suddenly that Steve can't turn his head to the side to burp more politely. Privately, that gives Bucky quite the thrill, his dirty, hungry pig. Burping uncontrollably. Sure, moaning is hot as hell, but there's something extra about his burps.
Also, about the gurgling of his gut.
His gut under that fucking sweater, dress shirt, and tie. Now he's not just bloated anymore, though... not after a decade of stuffing, now he's got fat. His gut is bloated all the time, glutted fully, but he's also fat. He's soft.
He's never been more handsome, but he's only going to get more handsome as he gets fatter.
1970s
Tumblr media Tumblr media
With the turn of the decades, Bucky buys himself more clothes and gets himself familiar with rising food trends, and he also does as he always does, buying Steve new clothes, too. Usually, though, he buys what he knows Steve will wear. Just underwear for sleeping. Blue jeans and t-shirts for non work clothes. And formal work clothes. Boring and simple because Steve's never really cared about his body or looks, uncaring so long as he keeps functioning, but he's so handsome it doesn't matter that he doesn't care so much about fashion. This time, though, Bucky also buys what he hopes Steve will wear. Because something catches his eye.
He can't help himself.
He hopes with everything in him, that Steve will wear some of the tiny, little shorts that have come into fashion for men.
He desperately wants to see Steve in tiny shorts.
So, he buys a few pairs. Some jean shorts that look unforgiving and might cut his doughy waist in delicious halves, some softer more sweatpants-like shorts that will be easier on his sensitive, overstuffed body, and a pair that are modeled like women's athletic shorts, just for the shits and giggles of seeing Steve in something designed for athleticism.
Despite buying them with the intention to get Steve in them, Bucky's still not prepared for it when it happens. He doesn't even have to use his puppy dog eyes or have to wait to ask Steve until he's stuffed and pliable! Steve just shrugs and agrees to it. He's gotten more and more pliable (more domesticated) the larger he's gotten. Maybe it's the fat slowing his body and mind down. Maybe it's making him dumber to be full and indulged all the time. Maybe be stuffed satiates him, leaving him without any room to be stubborn or argue.
Either way, Bucky gets Steve into them. And he is unprepared.
Steve is poured into the little shorts. Not only is there no space between his pale, bare thighs, his thighs squish together, trying to find more space - they're so soft, wide, and excessive - and not getting any. His massive ass hangs out the back of the shorts. Dimpled and round. Like cake. Soft, soft cake that Bucky wants to bite.
His poor husband works up a sweat, waddling from one side of the room to the other and back again and again when Bucky tells him to. He wants to see that ass move.
He's. chunked. up.
Also, also, there's his hips. Those trim, little hips are nowhere to be seen. Instead, his tiny waist has expanded. His love handles hang out of his undershirt - a ribbed, white tank top - and lap over the waist of the shorts. His tummy has really, really started hanging recently; it's just as exposed as his fat sides. It's so heavy and large. Swollen like a fat tear drop.
He looks edible.
As compensation for being forced to strut his overweight, plush, pale body around their living room, Bucky feeds him his entire dinner by hand. And he does it from the couch. TV trays have been popular since their inception in the 50s, but Bucky has always gotten more of a kick out of feeding Steve at the table. Progressively watching his belly approach the table, then push over the edge of the table and spill onto his placemat as he's gotten bigger; progressively watching his hips fill his dining chair; progressively watching Steve struggle harder and harder to walk out of the dining room when he's finally finished, stuffed full.
Now, Bucky breaks out the (slightly out of fashion) trays.
He sets up the feast, course by course. Some of it is actual food: pineapple chicken, quiche, stuffed veggies, and cheese logs. Some of it is snacks, more and more processed crap becoming more common: cereal, crackers, chips, etc. And some of it is dessert: carrot cake and pudding.
Before he eats any of it, though, those little shorts are swallowed by Steve's heft. The scrap of fabric is hidden under his massive muffin top. Bucky digs his fingers into those pudgy love handles and groans.
"Gonna feed you outta these," he promises, voice gone all breathy.
Steve bats his eyelashes and lets his mouth drop open, expectant, and so outrageously hot. After the first bite, he speaks, though, chewing, then licking his lips, "you always do."
"Mmm-hmm, you wouldn't know how hard I had to look to find these in your size."
Steve makes a sound, but his mouth is stuffed fill.
"It was so hard. I wonder if they're gonna stop making anything big enough for you soon."
Stee swallows thickly, "they wouldn't."
Bucky stuffs a heaped fork into his mouth. Making a noise of consideration.
"You hear the news, people are just gettin' fatter. Year after year."
"You're getting fatter."
"Uh-huh."
"Gonna get so fat for me."
"I already am. 'M huge."
"Gonna make you fatter. Huger."
"Yeah," Steve moans, his eyes shut, entirely trusting Bucky, "Gonna get too fat for fat America to even keep up with me."
(I know obesity was actually declared an epidemic in the 80s, but shhhh)
1980s
Tumblr media
The 80s brings pasta salad, beef stroganoff, sloppy joes, pudding pops, 7-layer dip, blackened meat, bread bowls, cool ranch Doritos, and Hot Pockets. And Steve tackles it all looking like the hottest, fattest bad boy. Maybe like a mobster boss with his light wash jeans that look like they're painted on and his black leather jacket that he can't zip up. He could zip it up around his gut for, like, a week. Then, he outgrew it. Like everything. That gut.
God.
His gut has grown obscenely round. Like a ball. A beach ball. Maybe a small yoga ball. It forces his legs to spread when he walks, even if he isn't full, and it makes his back arch, too.
It's heavy. He complains about it. It's hard to lug around. He gets embarrassed when he's forced to sit down and then get up because he has to put so much effort into getting up. Heaving himself to his feet. Grunting. Bracing his back as if he's expecting. Getting up from the bed in the morning, getting up from the table after breakfast, getting into and out of his car to get to work, getting out of his office chair for lunch, getting out of his lunch chair, and on and on.
He has a hard time moving.
Bucky can tell.
Steve puts on his leather jacket and jeans on the weekend and then parks his ass in his recliner. He only moves when he has to go to the bathroom. Otherwise, he sits all day. Eating. Watching TV. Letting Bucky lower his recliner into a 180° line so Bucky actually has room to ride him. (One of the only ways to have sex now, with how large Steve has grown). There ain't no way Bucky would be able to get to his dick with that fat, thick belly in the way. There isn't even any room on his lap anymore. The monster of always-hungry gut has it monopolized. And his thighs are nearly too wide, too fat for Bucky to comfortably straddle.
But...
Bucky is a little obsessed with his leather jacket.
Sometimes, when he's half riding him, taking his cock, half feeding him a sloppy joe that makes him look like a pig, smeared over his mouth and chin, he will slap Steve's gut until he sucks in with a pained groan. Then, Bucky'll use all his strength to pull the sides of his leather jacket together, and he will wiggle the zipper up as far as it can go.
Steve grunts and moans and burps.
If he has the air, his lungs compressed by his gut, Steve will moan, "it hurts! Buck! I- I can't! M' too full!" But usually he can't even complain. He just has to take it.
When he stops sucking in, the zipper flies down.
Or, it usually does.
One afternoon, the pressure of his fat is too much for his jacket. Steve is bubbly and drunk and burping and Bucky is so close, writhing on top of him. And Steve's gut surprises them both by breaking the zipper.
It bursts open.
Instantly, Bucky's hands are all over that gut, and he's coming. All Steve can do is moan. Blinded with the release. His belly is stretched. Tight. Hanging off of his body. He's gonna fucking pop. Too much.
When did he get this fat?
Why does it make him so horny?
God.
He whines, almost choking out a sob, grabbing for Bucky's still slim hips with fat fingers, as he cries, "more, more, moremoremoremore."
1990s
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Steve may spend all of the 90s on a sugar high because he eats like a fucking kid throughout the years. All the sugar. All the processed crap. It's addictive. He swears. They have to put something in it. He smashes through boxes and boxes of snacks. All at once. The amount he goes through in just a week is unbelievable. He's a fucking black hole, well, not exactly... because Bucky knows exactly where all the food goes. His ever-swelling husband.
Steve eats it all, lunchables, hot pockets, bagel bites, pizza rolls, gushers, string cheese, fish sticks, fruit by the foot, toaster strudel, etc.
All literal junk. Junk food.
Bucky feeds him real food, too, of course. But Steve swears it feels like he can't get enough. Not enough food. Not enough of the fake, processed shit. Even when he's fighting his body's physical ability to fit more inside of himself, he can't have enough. He needs more. More sugar that his brain needs. More rich, homemade food that he will always eat, and will especially eat if Bucky gives him those puppy dog eyes, too.
So, what is he supposed to do but eat?
Admittedly, throughout the decades, Steve's never felt this out of control. He is, though. He's so out of control. And it feels so good.
He doesn't want control back. He only wants more.
Despite his vivacious hunger, Steve still can't believe how fast he's piling on the pounds. It's like he can feel himself blowing up. Like, if he leaves a hand on his gut, it'll expand visibly under his palm. Hot, gurgly, and only tight when he's at his absolute maximum. Most of the time, he's officially too fat to know when he's packed to the brim.
Nothing feels better.
Nothing fucks his mind more than thinking when he puts his hands on his body, he'll find a rock hard, bloated tummy only to sink his fingers into jiggly waves of fat; an ocean of fat. And it's all him.
His belly.
His fat.
Steve can, for a little, hide the bloat the shitty food leaves him with with the oversized, still bad-boy, grunge-like clothing of the decade, but he outgrows it so fast that he never can hide it for too long.
Even those JNCO jeans and baggy flannels can't contain his massive body. His belly. His love handles. His ass. His thighs. His rolls. He's too big. Too big for anything to be oversized on him.
Bucky buys him clothes more often throughout this decade than any other. It's not just in Steve's head. He is speeding through the pounds. Day in, day out, he's growing.
He's always eating. Always sweating. Always moaning.
If his mouth isn't full of food, he's sleeping, showering, using his mouth on Bucky, or he's chugging teeth-rotting soda. The carbination makes him burp so easily, and the burps shift all that food inside him around, allowing his belly to create just a little more room. Room that Steve instantly has to fill.
It's kinda like his body is finally taking after his hunger. When there's any tiny amount of space in his belly, his mind tells him he's starving and he has to fill it; if there's a tiny amount of slack in his clothes, his body expands to fill it. With so much fat and so much food, Steve's eyes are heavily lidded constantly. He feels drunk all the time when he's pigged out. Slow and lazy and uncoordinated. All he can do is let Bucky feed him and let Bucky take pleasure in his blubbery, irresistible body.
2000s
Tumblr media
Diets, raw diets, explode in the 2000s, but Bucky won't let Steve hear a word of it. He skips the fruit smoothies and salads and replaces them for Steve with more junk food. Pepsi. Energy drinks. Cupcakes. Cake pops. Pizza. There's also, again, meatloaf and mac 'n cheese. Chicken pot pie, too.
Steve keeps going. He keeps stuffing down junk on top of all the actual food. He keeps gaining and gaining and gaining. It's a barrage, constantly, of food.
"Buck," Steve's loose lips slur, "'m-I'm fat."
"You're not just fat, Stevie. You're huge. A hog. Massive. Enormous. A whale. Immense. A fucking yoga ball of blubber, baby."
"Yeah," Steve whines, rubbing the bloated sides of his gut that he can reach. "Fat."
"No, baby, you're more than fat. You're massive. Say it-" Bucky commands, jiggling his heavy belly.
"I'm m-massive."
"So fucking fat that I can't believe it. Need more words to tell you how huge you are."
Steve just shivers, looking as if he's suspended in orgasm. Getting off on being told how unbelievably big he has grown to be, and how much more bigger he is going to get.
Regardless of his size, Bucky isn't so sure that Steve is aware of the change in style. He's pretty sure he's just aware of his inflating body and the food. The new foods. The returning foods.
Into the Future
When he's not working, Bucky swears Steve is constantly in a food coma. Even when his eyes are open, he's all dopey. Zoned out and happier than Bucky has ever seen him so long as he's eaten within the last 30 minutes.
What a big, fat dumbass.
The perfect husband.
I don't even know what alternative universe this is; I didn't think this far because this is just a mess of horny, but I would like to imagine that by this point (the 2010s, 2020s, etc.), they have more than enough money to retire, OR maybe Steve is still working for a while, but he starts being able to work from home with computers becoming better and more common, so he doesn't have to leave. No more calories wasted by needing to walk or spend lunch away from his feeder husband.
But, just because he can, he still forces himself into clothes. At first. He doesn't need to because he's not seeing anyone else, he may as well be naked all day every day, exposing his white, soft fat that's striped with stretch marks from decades of indulgence, ballooning like biscuit dough from a little cardboard tube.
Still, he keeps forcing himself into clothes for some time.
He does it until he can't.
It happens seemingly overnight.
Suddenly, he's too fat. Too big. Even his shirts large enough to look like a tent on a normal sized human are too small. He can hardly walk by himself, so, of course, dressing himself is out of the question. His body is just too big. Round. Heavy. All he's good for is eating.
He's overqualified for stuffing himself. It's all he's been focusing on for decades, after all. Steve always ate like it was his job, packing down delicious, fatty calories by inhaling food until he was on the cusp of bursting, forming new stretch marks before Bucky's very eyes, but now it is his job.
"Grow for me," Bucky whispers worshipfully, "that's all you gotta do, baby. Grow." Crawling all over his overflowing body.
And grow Steve does.
Until he's bigger than he could've ever imagined being.
Steve's stomach is massive - a huge, round, plush ocean of fat attached to his front. Thick and blubbery. His ass is dimpled and just as massive with thighs to match. His heavy body leaves him lumbering and waddling whenever he does manage to get up. Awkward but also so fucking hot with the way he jiggles all over as he manages one foot in front of the other.
Meanwhile, Bucky spends his time still cooking but also loving on his massive husband. He's always worshipping all that fat, massaging and groping and fucking it. He's irresistible. Unbelievably attractive in his truest form - a show winning hog.
As Bucky feeds and fucks his rolls, Steve just lies there, his head tipped back, food in his plush mouth, panting. Chest heaving; moobs wobbling. Splattering come somewhere deep in his rolls as his fat rubs and moves against him just right - that's all the stimulation he gets these days, his dick has been swallowed by his lard.
There isn't a time when Steve isn't stuffed to feeling as if he's gonna pop. Even though it takes so much more to fill his stretched-out tummy these days. Even in the middle of the night (because Bucky wakes him up to funnel shakes or melted ice cream straight into his ever-expanding gut).
By this point in their long lives, Steve's the size of their mattress.
A full, huge glutton.
And Steve doesn't want to stop. Neither does Bucky. With every mouthful of food, Steve moans just as loud as he always has, praising Bucky's cooking like he's a God (and he practically is at this point, he's spent so many years perfecting his craft). Plus, Steve's just as eager to try new foods. Still, Steve's just as pleased to add pounds, stretch marks, and rolls to his oversized body. The only difference is that now, popping buttons or bursting seams are not bench marks for his gain. Now, the signs of his growth come from the creaking, then the cracking of the slats underneath his massive body.
One day, the bed is going to give out. And he's only going to groan for more food - not for it to be fixed where he lies in the middle of the shattered bed frame, unable to do anything about his predicament. He can't even think about it. All he can think about is how hungry he is. His stomach is packed, and he doesn't know where any food is going to go, but he needs it. He needs to keep chewing, to keep growing, to keep feeding. Please. Please. Please. It's all he needs. He's addicted.
In conclusion:

Hello, can I ask from this ask game :
https://www.tumblr.com/threecheersforinking/677824836625694720/anime-ask-game?source=share
For anime/manga : Banana Fish, SK8 The Infinity, Attack on Titans and Wotakoi...
P.s
I want to ask JJK and BNHA, but I'm afraid if the ask will be too long....
Hello, hello, anon! 💜 thank you for reaching out. Just know that we do not fear length here. Those who will read, will read. Besides, this is a question posed by and meant for you.
I appreciate that you knew I'd struggle to be succinct tho haha I think I nailed it okay (literally, what do I know?).
BANANA FISH
Tumblr media
Favorite Character: Ash Lynx
Favorite Arc/Episode/Scene: The moment of recognition that focused Ash’s eyes when, with his vision compromised, he realized Eiji had come to rescue him from Dino. 🥹 Eiji hugging Ash after they rescue him from Fox. MAX BURNING ASH’S PICTURES.
Character I Think is Underrated: Max Lobo. I don’t know where he rates but it‘ll never be high enough in my book (see above).
Character I Think is Overrated:
Favorite Ship/Pairing: AshEiji
Something I Love About the Show/Movie: I honestly don’t know if I loved it. I mean. I’ve recommended it on multiple lists but it was triggering, I bawled my eyes out, I had to stop watching part way for over a month because it devastated me and, after everything, it ended so unfairly. Watching Banana Fish is an experience that festers within me that I am occasionally compelled to relive. So maybe there’s something to be said for a story that can inspire that in a way that lasts (I’ve literally only watched it once and won’t again). Maybe I just love the idea of a broken person who can still be loved and regarded gently without condition.
SK8 THE INFINITY
Tumblr media
Favorite Character: Kaoru “Cherry” Sakurayashiki, he’s so gender.
Favorite Arc/Episode/Scene: this is one series that justifiably has a beach episode if only to set up Miya cockblocking Joe. Joe will never beat the Down-Bad-For-Kaoru allegations, either.
Character I Think is Underrated: Miya. I feel like there’s more unexplored lore RE: Adam, his relationship with food and, of course, his relationship with his parents and peers. Oka is another sleeper but I think I was just intrigued by the fanon idea of Oka from fan art
Character I Think is Overrated:
Favorite Ship/Pairing: MatchaBlossom, also, knowing Kaoru and Adam had some fling or something pre-MB is precisely what I mean when I say your favorite characters wouldn’t just settle down. Let them be messy like people, it’s better for the lore.
Something I Love About the Show/Movie: I love a show I can share with my niece and nephew but, more than that, the music was a VIBE.
ATTACK ON TITAN
Tumblr media
Favorite Character: Levi Ackerman
Favorite Arc/Episode/Scene: Erwin’s galvanizing speech in Shinganshina. 🔪💔 Or the big reveal at the castle tower when the main cast were just recruits under scrutiny. Their outlandish victory there.
Character I Think is Underrated: Poor Moblit had to put up with so much hahaha respected Hange's pronouns, supported their eccentricity (with caution) and was an absolute ride or die.
Character I Think is Overrated: Eren Jaeger.
Favorite Ship/Pairing: Eruri
Something I Love About the Show/Movie: the exposition. Not by the spoonful but, instead, by the shock of a snapping jaw. With the subject matter being as heavy as it is, the world building unfurled in such a way that you, as the viewer, are an ignorant person behind the wall. You learned things as the characters, namely the main trio, came to understand them. They grew up with your expanding world view, their innocence falling away as the harsh reality of the world they lived in shifted into focus and it was done so elegantly that you never see the next big twist coming. Even with all the easter eggs you come to realize after the fact!
WOTAKOI: LOVE IS HARD FOR OTAKU
Tumblr media
Favorite Character: Hanako Koyanagi and Hirotaka Nifuji are like neck and neck
Favorite Arc/Episode/Scene: Not only finding out that Hanako cosplays but that she is like renowned for her handsome characters.
Character I Think is Underrated: Naoya Nifuji - I kinda feel like there's not a thought behind those eyes but so, so nice. Also, well meaning chaos when he almost blows Hirotaka's cover. But, see what I mean?
Character I Think is Overrated:
Favorite Ship/Pairing: Both of the main two couples have some issues but.. isn't that real life? So.. Hanako and Taro even though they argue, the love runs deep
Something I Love About the Show/Movie: It's so relatable ✨ (see above)
JUJUTSU KAISEN
Tumblr media
Favorite Character: So many, honestly. Gojo, Nanami and Nobara are just top tier, in my opinion for many reasons.
Favorite Arc/Episode/Scene: Toss up between Nobara and Yuji becoming accomplices because the trio were really stepping up while trying to undo that curse or the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc in setting the stage for everything.
Character I Think is Underrated: Nanami Kento. I talk a lot about Geto Suguru being doomed by the narrative but maybe it's just any earnest man in jujutsu society. It's why Gojo tests to make sure his students are crazy before accepting them.
Character I Think is Overrated: Toji Zenin. Don't get me wrong, character wise, he's zesty and he's so grossly mischaracterized that it makes me question people's reading comprehension. He's an interesting wildcard whose omitted background, I think, will boomerang back into the story. But some of the fan obsession is a bit out of my realm of understanding.
Favorite Ship/Pairing: *gestures vaguely to the rest of my blog* SatoSugu, but it's pretty casual.
Something I Love About the Show/Movie: Surprisingly, the prevalence of alternative representation and bad ass female cast that subverts typical shonen fodder. But also, the fact that the chaos that is seemingly bringing on the end of the world in the current timeline is literally thanks to two teenagers who would willingly fight a god but couldn't be honest about how they felt 10 years ago. There are so many "if only's" in this series, it's maddening, actually.
MY HERO ACADEMIA
Tumblr media
Favorite Character: Katsuki Bakugo
Favorite Arc/Episode/Scene: All Might vs. AFO as Bakugo and Deku watch from a distance.
Character I Think is Underrated: Tokoyami. Having placed third in the sports festival, Tokoyami appreciation is still not loud enough for me. Locks down an internship with the Number 2 hero. Bears the burden of a heteromorph quirk while locked in an eternal effort to subjugate Dark Shadow. Has presumably stellar taste in music and poetry. Kid is legitimately fearsome and, yet, people don’t put enough respect on him even though he’s lowkey also OP.
Character I Think is Overrated: I’m going to get some hate for this but.. All Might. His arrested development may not be his fault but misguiding Midoriya out of some misplaced sense of ego or obligation was so frustrating when he's the adult in the situation. I just think he deserves more slander.
Favorite Ship/Pairing: BakuDeku and/or EraserMic (fanon EraserMic content is always just 😘👌🏾) but there are a lot of great ones to choose from, I have plenty of faves.
Something I Love About the Show/Movie: The idea that anyone can be a hero and, inversely, that anyone can be a villain. The latter stemming from the fact that you don’t know who you are in other people’s story, nor how close you are to ruin with one lapse in judgement. There’s a persisting idea of redemption while a lot of the heavy hitters in this conflict are entrenched in generations' worth of unrest. Think about Compress, Geten's family (not calling out a spoiler here but IYKYK), Redestro, All For One, One for All... the list goes on and on. I have a draft somewhere about this but got too busy to put all my thoughts down for a lot of theories I had for MHA. So maybe I also love that it's a story that has always kept me guessing in a really constructive way. Lastly, with such a huge, nuanced ensemble cast, I think a lot of people are able to see themselves in the context of these characters which is really unique.

Spider-fat part 2
Peter awoke with a sharp pain in his stomach. He didn’t know where he was. He was on an old couch in a small apartment. There was a small tv and some pictures on the wall. Kevin. Peter must have passed out after dinner last night. His shirt was on the floor with 2 buttons missing and the fabric was stretched. Then peter remembered. He looked down to see his massive gut in front of him. His skin was tight and the bottom of his stomach was beginning to hang over his shorts. Peter eventually decided to go back to his apartment wearing a shirt that Kevin gave him. Kevin also sent him home with some waffles for breakfast.
on his way home, Peter heard an alarm. Someone must have broke into the bank! He reached into his bag and pulled out his suit. Hiding in an alley he pulled the suit over his legs and began pulling it over his stomach. Yikes. This suit was starting to get really tight around the midsection. He struggled to zip it up but he eventually got it on and stopped the robber. “Looks like Spider-Man needs to stay away from the buffet! Haha!” Said the robber. Peter shrugged it off and swung home.
A few more weeks had gone by and peters gains weren’t slowing down. He really tried to eat less and workout more but he never had time to workout and Kevin kept inviting him over for dinner. Every time Peter showed up, there was an incredible feast displayed on the table. And tonight was no different. Kevin had prepared a huge bowl of beef stew along with buttery garlic bread, some homemade pizza, and some kind of pasta. Recently, peter had began counting his calories to try and control what he ate. He had already ate more than he would have liked because of his McDonalds lunch. Peters goal was to stay under 2,500 calories for the day. But today he was already at 2,300 and he hadn’t even eaten dinner. He told Kevin that tonight would have to be a light meal but Kevin persisted. “I would hate to have to throw away all of this food” he said. Peter didn’t want to make Kevin mad, so he swallowed his pride and ate the delicious feast.
after another decadent dessert, peter decided to check how many calories he ate and how many he would have to burn. After putting in the 2 bowls of soup, 4 slices of that delicious garlic bread, 3 slices of pizza, 3 large plates of pasta, 7 cookies, 2 slices of pie, and a banana split, he had eaten a whopping 7,800 calories for dinner. That put him at over 10,000 for the day. That was like 4 times his limit! He told Kevin and Kevin started smiling. Peter thought he also saw something growing in Kevin’s pants but maybe he was just hallucinating from all of the food. “That’s nothing!” Kevin said. “I’ve still got plenty of food in the fridge. A big strong man like you could eat way more than that! I bet you’re not even full.” “What?!” “No! I don’t want any more food.” Peter watched as Kevin’s smile faded. Peter had never seen him this sad. “Fine. but only a little bit.” Peter reluctantly said. Kevin grew giddy and went to get more food.
By the end of the night, peters shirt had rode up to reveal a sliver of his full stomach. Kevin had gone to bed and left Peter on the couch to groan in pain. Peter added his second meal to his calorie counter app. A pint of ice cream, a few slices of strawberry shortcake, a fish fillet, 10 homeade chocolate chip cookies, and 4 bottles of beer to wash it all down. 16 thousand 4 hundred eighty seven calories for the day. If Peter kept eating like this, he would no longer be able to be Spider-Man. He had to find a plan to stop this.

Anime/Manga Recommendation Round Up
Anime and manga recommendation thread of things I’ve been enjoying in recent years~ 
Tumblr media
~I’ll link any dedicated posts I have to these~
~Links to my other manga posts here~
My personal favs/ones I super enjoyed will have a ✨ on them :)
(Some of these might not have official EN translations since any physical manga I read are JP copies. I guess if any sound interesting, ask publishers to license them!)
I won’t get too much into what they’re about because I think finding out is part of the fun. I’ll mostly list the genres and a little blurb. Some of these I feel like I rarely hear anyone talk about so it would be cool to see people try these :) 
 PLEASE LOOK UP ANY TRIGGER WARNINGS!
HORROR, SUPERNATURAL 
✨The Summer Hikaru Died by Mokumoku Ren 
(2 volumes, ongoing)
To be licensed by Yen Press!
Tumblr media
Picked it up earlier this year up knowing nothing but was immediately gripped by the eerie mood. Takes place in the country side where mysterious things have been happening. My friend couldn’t stop reading when I recommended it.
ACTION, THRILLER, DRAMA, CRIME
✨Banana Fish by Yoshida Akimi
(19 volumes + side stories, completed)
It’s getting reprinted in English, so what are you waiting for!
Anime - yes and it’s so good…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The manga is from the 80’s-90’s but the anime updated it in 2018.
Without giving too much away, it takes place in NY where our characters are trying to break out of the vicious cycle of violence and figure out a mystery that’s also connected to a conspiracy. Lovable cast, keeps you on the edge of your seat. I’m obsessed.
DRAMA, ROMANCE, LGBT
Lovers’ Kiss by Yoshida Akimi
(2 volumes, completed)
JP only
Tumblr media
A short story where high schoolers are just trying to figure life out. Yoshida-sensei has this way of writing human stories and melancholy/tragedy while still leaving a glimmer of hope.
HISTORICAL, SUPERNATURAL
✨Mushishi by Urushibara Yuki
(10 volumes, complete)
I think the physicals are out of print but you can read it on bookwalker. It deserves a reprint!!!
Anime - yes, it’s a whole vibe please watch it
Tumblr media
I watched S1 ages ago but never got to the rest until recently. Recently picked up the manga and plan to read it eventually. Another top fav of all time. Amazing atmosphere. We see the daily life of mushi expert Ginko deal with mysterious phenomenon mushi cause.
COMEDY, SLICE OF LIFE
✨Yotsuba&! by Azuma Kiyohiko
(15 volumes, ongoing)
Available in English
Tumblr media
This series is super cute, wholesome, and hilarious! Yotsuba is honestly a delight, and following her daily life as she befriends her new neighbors is just a good time. Yet another fav of all time.
DRAMA, ART, SLICE OF LIFE
✨Blue Period by Yamaguchi Tsubasa
(12 volumes, ongoing)
Available in English
Anime - yes, but… listen I’ve never said “don’t watch the anime” because everyone can enjoy stuff however they want but... don’t watch the anime… I’ve never been so offended by an adaption ;_;
Tumblr media
After discovering something he’s passionate about for the first time, Yatora navigates the art world despite his fears and being a complete newcomer. This series made me cry so much, I love it… please
ROMANCE
In the Clear Moonlight Dusk by Yamamori Mika
(5 volumes, ongoing)
Available in English
Tumblr media
Blind-bought this a while ago. Yoi is dubbed “Prince” by her classmates for her cool demeanor, but she’s not the only one. Honestly, didn’t think I was going to like the male lead but he surprised me
ROMCOM, ACTION
MARRIAGETOXIN by Joumyaku and Yoda Mizuki
(2 volumes, ongoing)
Available for free on Shueisha’s mangaplus site
Tumblr media
Assassin Gero needs to produce an heir so his sister can stay with her gf, but the social skills he needs to win a girl over need some help. This series is so funny and wholesome, all around a good time!
ACTION, ADVENTURE, FANTASY
✨Yona of the Dawn by Kusanagi Mizuho
(39 volumes, ongoing)
Available in English
Anime - yes, but I haven’t seen it yet so idk
Tumblr media
I’m not very far in this one yet, but I’m having a great time. Love the friendship, the found family vibes. Seeing Yona acknowledge that she is naive and then stepping up is awesome.
idk how I slept on this for so long since it seems like something right up my alley. Literally picked up a lot of all the 39 currently out volumes (it came with the light novel too), no questions asked. I’m only a few volumes in, but I’m enjoying it a lot. It’s giving me Ertugrul vibes (the historical Turkish drama). No, I won’t expand on that point, go watch Ertugrul!
Tumblr media
I’m committed apparently...
ROMANCE
A Sign of Affection by Morishita Suu
(7 volumes, ongoing)
Available in English
Tumblr media
Blind-buy. A cute romance between a deaf girl and a well traveled guy. I got nervous it was going to do tropes I hated, but it didn’t! It handled them maturely and I love it for that!!!
FANTASY, ISEKAI
✨Ascendance of a Bookworm by Kazuki Miya and Shiina You
(3 seasons, ongoing)
Available in English - originally a light novel
Anime - yes, I’ve been watching this not reading it yet
Tumblr media
Listen, isekai just don’t ever click with me, but this one does. There’s political drama and we get to learn about the culture and daily lives of people living in this world.
Our mc is reincarnated into a medieval fantasy world where access to books is limited, making it her personal hell. But don’t worry, she gonna do something about it! This series is so interesting and I love the character dynamics. Even if isekai aren’t your thing, try this!
DRAMA, HISTORICAL, POLITICAL
✨Requiem of the Rose King by Kanno Aya
(17 volumes, complete)
Available in English
It has an anime but I heard fans were really mad at the adaption. I haven’t seen it so I can’t comment.
Tumblr media
Normally not the kind of thing I would go for, but this series has me constantly screaming. IT’S SO MESSY, but the good kind of messy. It takes every fiber in my body to contain myself when reading in public. It features an mc who was born intersex and a battle for the crown of England.
DRAMA
My Broken Mariko by Hirako Waka
(one shot)
Available in English
Tumblr media
Saw this at the bookstore and I looked at the cover like “wow, she looks like she’s really going through it…and she’s carrying someone’s ashes, oh no…” Didn’t know anything else about it but, oof, it’s a heavy one…
DRAMA
Look Back and ✨Goodbye Eri by Fujimoto Tatsuki
(one shots)
Available in English - also on the Jump app
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While Fujimoto-sensei’s more well known work wasn’t 100% clicking with me, I tried his one shots and really enjoyed them. I particularly liked the cinematic feeling and environmental story telling.
Maybe when I’m up to it, I’ll do posts on some of these that go into a little more detail on how I felt about them idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I can't remember if I've asked you this already or someone else has if so I'm sorry. I'm looking for some anime to watch and wondered if you could reccomend me some of your faves.
Hoo boy, that’s a seriously long list 😂 (please make sure to check them all out if you have any triggers, because some of these are pretty messed up).
One Piece - all time favourite, could not recommend it enough (but be aware you’d have over 1K episodes to catch up on lol).
Fairy Tail - it’s a walking cliché of fanservice and friendship, but by god I love it (also Natsu/Lucy is my all time favourite ship).
Gintama - so weird, so crude, so funny, it’s a comedy/parody anime that may confuse and baffle at times, but a lot of the bigger arcs that follow a linear plot are so good.
Full Metal Alchemist(: Brotherhood) - I’ve watched both versions and Brotherhood was imo superior, but the 2003 version doesn’t slack, so if you’re willing I’d give them both a try (can never get enough FMA is what I’m saying).
Wolf’s Rain - my first anime and the one that led me into the rabbit hole, kind of surprising because I was like 10/11 and this shit was deep.
Bleach - okay, I have a real love/hate with Bleach but you can’t go wrong with everything up to the end of the Soul Society Arc, after that I will take no responsibility lol.
Jujutsu Kaisen - if you haven’t watched this (or read it), you need to go do that now.
Hunter x Hunter - top tier anime, it’s as popular as it is for a reason. The Chimera Ant Arc…yeahhh.
Bungou Stray Dogs - I binge watched every season without issue, kept my focus pretty much the whole time.
Blue Exorcist - many peoples gateway anime, it’s fun, it’s angsty, and it’s not a good idea to trust your favs.
Banana Fish - this fucking manga/anime…(please be warned that there are a lot of triggering scenes and topics involved).
Nanbaka - another parody/comedy anime that smacks you with the feels, seriously it’s a good one.
Akatsuki no Yona - look everyone is really pretty, I want to marry my own Hak, and Yona is a bad bitch (although don’t listen to people screaming about character development, there wasn’t actually a lot lol).
I gave up with the descriptions because I have no patience, but here’s a list to keep you busy for a while (this is more of list that I’ve watched, but I’ll bold the ones that I really enjoyed):

ya know sometimes when you get writing inspiration from really fucked up things and then you’re just sitting there like. How easy is it to identify rabid animals? And how easy would it be to trap them? Have crime organizations ever considered this form of punishment? Corrupt governments? I can’t be the first, this is too fucked up for it to be an original thought from my brain first, I don’t want to be the first one to think of this. But yeah. What if our fictional terrible person was just giving people rabies.
I’ve been watching like,, banana fish and terror in resonance and great pretender and such again. And I was watching the click video from r/nope that talked about rabies. And yeah. I wish I hadn’t thought about this, but should I somehow and for some reason write it? And does anyone wanna give me now solicited facts about rabies and it’s possible use as a weapon now that I’ve brought it up

4. Anime you have not finished watching yet?
I’ve been procrastinating the last episodes of Sailor Moon. I haven’t been keeping up with Summertime Render lately. I also wanna finish My Little Monster and Ghost Stories. Also I’ve been in the process of watching Yu Yu Hakusho for literal years so we’ll see if that ever gets finished

14. Subbed or dubbed?
If the dub is good, I’ll watch it. If a show’s really new or doesn’t have a decent dub, I’ll do it subbed. Like. Yuri on Ice and Haikyuu have to be watched in sub, but if I’m watching Bleach or something it has to be the English for me

I don’t like Sakura & Hinata from Naruto because too much of their personalities are about who they have a crush on. Atsumu Miya from Haikyuu is cocky and annoying. Golzine from Banana Fish is terrible. Enel from One Piece is one of the most annoying villains ever. Zenitsu from Demon Slayer is obnoxious

Three Little Changes (Part 2)
Ngl I can't believe that I haven't done an Azutara long fic before. Azutara was the first thing I ever shipped lol. Better late than never.
She hadn’t expected to see Azula back in school so soon. 
The rumors made it sound horrible, like the girl was going to be paralyzed for life or brain damaged, or something. But then again, they said that Zuko got lost at sea and died–he came back a few days before Azula.  
This wasn’t Azula’s first run in with the ocean. She still remembers the first accident. The one that happened when they were just children. The reef had done a number on her then and it had decided to have a second go. 
The ocean had never been kind to Azula and her family. She knows that a while back a hurricane had swept Ozai’s pearl harvesting business right off of the boardwalk–she doesn’t know how he had managed to salvage that. 
The lesser rumors had said that Azula was still walking and her mental wellness was fully intact but that she had some hideous, disfiguring scars. 
She does have scars, more of them added to those from her childhood accident. But Katara doesn’t find them to be anything worth noting. 
Katara looks down before she can meets her eyes and fidgets with her charm bracelet. There’s the dolphin, the scuba diver, the surf board, the palm tree, the hibiscus, and a crab. That one is her favorite, that is the one that Kya had given her before losing her battle with cancer. 
When she looks up once more she finds that Azula has only come closer. She walks with something like a slight slouch or a limp, she winces with each step and Katara can’t stop the question from tumbling out, “shouldn’t you be at home, recovering?” If every step is painful enough to have her hunched and clutching her side…”
“I don’t want to be at home.” Azula bites. “It’s boring and…” She trails off. “Nevermind.” 
Katara releases her breath. She had been certain that the other girl was going to tear her a new one. She never did have anything particularly nice to say. 
But today is different.
Today she props herself up against Katara’s locker and, after the fact, asks, “do you mind?”
She is already leaning against it and even if she wouldn’t Katara wouldn’t have had the heart to tell her to take her rest somewhere else. Even with all of the bad blood she can’t imagine letting herself watch Azula shamble to find somewhere else. 
“That seems like it hurts a lot. I don’t know if it means anything, but I’m glad that you’re okay.”
Azula’s brows furrow. “I guess that it means something.” She pauses and sweeps her bangs back over skin that is still mending where the stitches have finally been removed. “You’re the only person who hasn’t bombarded me with questions today.” 
.oOo.
She remembers that day vividly. It was the day things started to change. 
The beginning of the first of the three changes that she is okay with.
When a rival had become a friend.
These days it almost feels like they had never hated each other at all. That an eight year old Azula had never stolen the lunch out of her glittery dolphin lunchbox and replaced it with sand, mud, and worms from Iroh’s Marlin Mouth Pro Fishing shop.
The devious beast in question finally slips into her chair. 
“What took you so long, you’re never late?”
Azula shrugs. “Things got heated between father and Zuzu again…”
It is really all that she needs to say. Katara imagines that it must be taxing to play the mediator role all the time. “Does he still blame Zuko for what happened?”
“Among other things.” Azula replies. Katara catches the faintest pursing of her lips, that familiar furrowing of her brows. “Let's go order some ice cream.” 
“I wish that you wouldn’t just keep things bottled up all the time.” Katara comments in spite of knowing that it is best to not push her. 
“I’m alright, Katara. I’m used to it.”
But that is just it, she shouldn’t be. Katara opens her mouth to say as much but instead she replies, “I heard that they’re selling chocolate covered banana pops, I’ve been meaning to try one.” 
Azula nods. “Do you want a plain one, the one with peanuts, or the one with sprinkles.” She pauses for a beat. “Peanuts.” She guesses with a quirk of her brow. 
“Peanuts.” Katara confirms. “Let me guess, you’re getting the boring plain one?”
Azula saunters up to the smoothie shack and passes her credit card. “One chocolate covered banana with peanuts and one with sprinkles…” She shoots a look back at Katara. “Extra rainbow, please.” 
Katara rolls her eyes. 
“Extra rainbow?” She laughs upon dropping back into their seats. “What does that even mean?”
“It means, extra ‘I bet you weren’t expecting that’.”
“You’re the worst.”
“I buy you food. I think that,” Azula pauses to push her sunglasses back up her nose. “That puts me a or two step above Chan.” She leans back in the chair and stares off at the sunset. “And I give you something to make your summer evenings more thrilling.
“Are you ‘not the worst’ enough to try rollerblading with me. Sunset, boardwalk, ice cream in hand–the whole experience?”
“Ugg, now you’re pushing it.” Azula takes another lick at the chocolate and sprinkles. “That’s such a sappy date idea.” 
“It’s a romantic idea. Don’t write it off until you try it!” Katara bites into the banana, a coldness bursts over her teeth but Azula is the one who shudders. 
“I hate it when you do that. It makes my teeth hurt.” 
“It’s not my fault that you have sensitive baby teeth.” 
Azula folds her arms across her chest and grumbles something. 
“It’s alright, I don’t mind your sensitive teeth.” She follows Azula’s gaze past the swishing silhouettes of palm trees to the gold washed ocean. It is that time of the evening where the sun hits it just right, putting a sparking shimmer upon the gentle waves. When droplets of water look like beads of sunshine. Tiny liquid marbles that Katara wishes she could suspend in the air and hold. 
There is something else that she can hold and she does. She cups her hand over Azula’s. She feels the slightest twitch. It is reassuring to know that she has finally moved past jerking away and hissing. 
“Thanks for the chocolate covered banana.” 
“Yeah.” Azula replies. Her cheeks are slightly colored and she meets Katara’s eyes only for a flicker before staring off into the sunset with a renewed vigor. 
Katara can’t help but to chuckle. It is strange to think that she has warmed up to and started to understand the other girl’s cold mannerisms; a component of that first welcomed change.

I’ve watched the ninth episode of “Banana Fish”. I cried throughout the whole episode. Really. From the first minute to the last one. Because, God, it’s already too much. It starts reminding me another anime/manga about mafia which on the one hand is a million times more problematic, but, on the other hand, (Spoilers!) it’s less severe – at least, all the main characters are alive (for eighty, or how many issues are there already) and here they are not. (REAL SPOILERS!!!!!!) They’ve killed Shorter. Devil, HOW they’ve killed Shorter. Okay, inhale-exhale, calm down, let’s be consistent. Everybody’s in Golzine’s captivity. Shorter and Eiji are separated, Yut-Lung is given to Papa as a present. By his brother. Now Shorter is drugged with Banana fish and made to think that Eiji is his enemy and he has to kill him to feel relief. Then Dino decides to rape both Eiji and Yut-Lung but doesn’t have time (fortunately). Yut-Lung runs away and Eiji is taken to the next part of the “show”. Golzine organizes a dinner, has everybody (Ash, Ibe and Max) wear tuxedos and so on, but then takes them all to the dungeon and lets out Shorter and Eiji and Shorter attacks Eiji, even though he understands that something’s wrong, he begs Ash (who’s chained to the wall) to do something. When there one more move left to kill Eiji, Ash’s allowed to end it – the chains are lengthened and there’s a gun on the floor. Ash shoots Shorter. His best friend. Kills him to save Eiji. Ash cries, Eiji cries, Shorter cries dying, I cry like a baby. I don’t even know what happens next, but I panicked and looked up on Wiki – Ash and Eiji won’t die – such a relieve.
P.S. looking at this from the future I have to remind you all - there are gays who can’t do math and I’m a pan who can’t read Wiki.
(Be carefull with the gifs, they are bloody and will probably make you cry too.)

hii!! i sent in a matchup,, can’t really remember what I asked for,, and I think it was anonymous so I might as well just resend info! I’m sorry T-T,, if this seems like one you already have you can use the previous animes requested instead of these!!
could I get a matchup from banana fish, death note, or demon slayer?? thank you!
i got by they/them pronouns, I am bisexual with no preference, and I am a slytherin. I’m also in cabin 12 if you know pjo! personality wise, I’m more laidback,, though I do joke around a lot and can be pretty sarcastic. thats once you get to know me, I have kinda bad anxiety so I might just come off as sarcastic or tired. idk if this would help but if you picture Saiki Kusuo, Reki Kyan, and Yuri plisetsky mixed together, you’d probably get something close to me. I’m pretty smart, as people say, I’ve always had good grades tho recently kinda hit a burnout,, but that won’t stop me from getting into my AP courses. i enjoy true crime and learning about the law,, I mainly find it interesting and would love to go into the forensic field. i watch a lot of anime and would typically either be painting or playing some game on my phone. i usually wear jeans with some kind of hoodie or slightly oversized t shirt. it’s comfy. i can be slightly clingy in a relationship,, I just like being with the ones I care for,, but I do know when to give some space,,
you’re totally free to ignore this as well!! thank you again! and congrats on your 600!!
Hello lovely! I hope you like your matchups! Thanks for the congrats! I chose just a couple from your previous matchup request (I had yours not on anonymous)  and mashed them up with this one :) I hope that’s alright!
Sk8 the Infinity Matchup: I pair you with… Nanjo Kojiro!
Tumblr media
You two meet at S! You are more there just to support your friend who has a beef with Joe, and he finds you incredibly intriguing! After winning the race, he comes up and asks you out. Whether you accept or not is up to you, but you stay in contact regardless. He’s also a Gryffindor, so the two of you pair rather nicely with some minor butting of heads in the beginning. 
He loves that you joke around a lot and absolutely adores your sarcasm! He helps you work through your burnout and enables you to stay on track to pass all of your classes! He also buys you books on true crime and law with his own money because he wants to see you interested in things! (He also sneaks in books on skateboarding occasionally)
Joe doesn’t mind that you are somewhat clingy; in fact, he quite likes it! He likes feeling like he can protect and provide for you :) Also, lending you his hoodies or jackets! They absolutely drown you, and he thinks it is so freaking adorable!
Ouran High School Host Club Matchup: I pair you with… Morinozuka Takashi!
Tumblr media
You are a regular at the Host Club! You actually go to the twins usually or to see Honey but decide to branch out one day and see Mori. It turns out to be a great decision, and the two of you hit it off! He towers over you at 6’4” and most likely still growing as he is a teenage boy!
I definitely see Mori as a Gryffindor, so the two of you also make a great match like you and Joe! Your sarcasm and fun facts make Mori smile (although sometimes the true-crime facts are a little concerning), and he likes to lend you his school jacket, especially when it’s raining, so you don’t get wet or catch a cold. Then, he asks you to teach him to skateboard, and the two of you skate around town all the time once he gets the basics down!
Mori also helps your anxiety be lower and not as bad, and your jokes are one of the few things to get him to chuckle :) He helps you through your burnout and gives you tips and tricks that helped him through a similar scenario. He helps you with your studies, so study dates when you two have free time!
Demon Slayer Matchup: I pair you with… Tomioka Giyuu!
Tumblr media
So Giyuu is taller at 5’9” but obviously doesn’t tease you about it. He doesn’t tease you about a lot of things, actually, so that’s a plus, I guess, unless you like teasing. And he’s the third Gryffindor in a row! Maybe you have a type!
He has his own unique way of calming you down in the event of an anxiety attack. Like he’s so calm and firm in his beliefs that he’s like your firm rock to build a foundation upon. Your jokes get him to crack a small smile, and it absolutely makes your day when you get him to chuckle! He likes that you are so bright and asks for your opinion on a lot of things because he values it!
Your true-crime facts sometimes concern Giyuu, but he doesn’t show it and instead asks you to make sure to take care of yourself. He helps the best he can with your studies and supports you every step of the way in the forensic field!
