@airabuhan
hello! i’m coso, welcome to my blog!! i’m usually more active on my twitter, but i’ll lurk here from time to time!
🦢 i love enstars, and have loved it since march 2021! my favs have changed a lot since then but my current enstars obsession is kohaku & aira!
🌸 the main units i produce at the moment are alkakurei, but i have a soft spot for a lot of other units too. i mostly post about aira & kohaai though lmao
[happy end]
little astronauts 💫

rating: general audiences archive warning: no archive warnings apply relationship: oukawa kohaku/shiratori aira characters: oukawa kohaku, shiratori aira additional tags: fluff, mutual pining, slow burn, sort of, alternative universe - canon divergence, au where kohaai don't find out they're online friends until after !! main story, pov alternating, alkaloid and himeru cameos words: 11,746 published: 2023-08-15
summary: that doesn’t mean he can’t post about it, right? it would be a way to get some of this admiration out of his system. or at least that’s the justification aira uses when he makes his first post about kohaku on his fan account.
or kohaku and aira don't find out they're online friends until after !! main story.
here on ao3
to celebrate aira's birthday, i'm dumping a lot of my older kohaai/aira sketches here! these aren't in any particular order but most of these are from 2023 ish (some from 2021-2022)
and.. my first ever kohaai from july 2021! :") its nostalgic for me revisiting this
happy birthday aira!! 🎉❤️ here’s to another year of loving you!!
Sakurairo no Claim [Song Translation]
Sakurairo no Claim/桜色のクレーム/Sakura-Colored Complaint
kohaku's second solo being a love song has me going crazyyy
i also read the associated story for this card and it made me super emotional,,, anyway's here's my attempt at translating this!! the lyrics are definitely my own interpretation of them since they're actually.. super vague ;;

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
The reason for my shallow sleep tucked in my pocket
I stuff it inside and run out to your side
Even if I pretend it’s nothing, I know
I can’t hide it as well as I’d thought
I’m sure I must be wearing the same shy face as you
Even the sky yawned too, everyone must be lacking sleep
I’ve been waiting impatiently for so long, ah finally, we’ve met
I can’t help but complain, it’s been a long time, or has it? Just feels that way
Today, I’ll spend every moment of my time with you
I want to make you enjoy it fully, so first I’ll wave “Good morning!”
Our sense of distance seems to reset each time
But each time I realize it’s a groundless fear
Feeling relieved, we get one step closer
If we keep repeating this, what lies ahead
Right now, what’s before my eyes becomes the future, as I’m secretly imagining it
As we gazed at each other, our love smiled upon us as we blossomed in the same wind
I’ve been at my limit for so long, ah, I love you after all
Our complaints are mutual, so our longing to meet is the solution
Tens of thousands of times like this, we realize our feelings and tell each other
In the middle of our every day, let’s make this never-ending love blossom
Worrying about the time to return home, I won’t hide it
The loneliness, the affection, all of it
I’ll properly take it all back home with me
I’ve been at my limit for so long, ah, I love you after all
I can’t help but complain, let’s promise to meet again soon
A one in ten thousand chance is a clue to our eternity
Tomorrow will continue from today, so I’ll wave “See you soon!”
Kyou mo Oshi ga Oshi de Toutoi [Song Translation]
Kyou mo Oshi ga Oshi de Toutoi / 今日も推しが推しで尊い / Today too, my Oshi is my Precious Oshi
i have been SO obsessed with this song,, its such a fun song about the two biggest fanboys in enstars :) i love aira and tomoya oshikatsu-ing so much.. this song means the world to me.
this one was a rough one to translate with all the references to units and oshikatsu culture ;; i hope you all enjoy!

TRANSLATORS NOTES
<1> - 推し (oshi): refers to a term that fans use to talk about their favorite idol ( or person/character, etc.). Similar meaning to "bias" in kpop fandom! I chose to keep it (and oshikatsu) romanized here!
<2> - 推し活 (oshikatsu): term that refers to how fans actively support their oshi, through going to concerts, buying merchandise, making itabags, etc. etc.
<3> - 健康促進推し活 (kenkou sokushin oshi katsu): lit translation is "health promotion oshikatsu"--basically this concept is that through supporting your favorite idols (oshikatsu), you're improving your health since you're going outside to go to events, etc. (good for physical health) and improving mental health (happiness, etc.)
<4> - 一番星 (ichibanboshi): he's specifically referring the first star of the evening, which shines very brightly. It's a metaphor used often with Trickstar and it's very meaningful to their story!
<5> - 急な供給 (kyuu na kyoukyuu): lit translation is something along the lines of "Sudden Supply", but in fandom culture it means new official content from their idols/etc. such as new merch, songs, etc.
<6> - チケ当選ご用意されたい: This line uses a specific phrasing in reference to a confirmation email you get from the ticket lottery system for concerts! It's random who gets tickets and you get sent an email that's either 'we have prepared a ticket for you (win)' or 'we were unable to prepare a ticket (loss)'. They're basically hoping they win the ticket lotto lol. I tried my best to translate it 'cause i wanted to keep the joke :")
<7> - ガチ恋製造機 (gachi koi seizouki): Gachikoi refers to (parasocial af) fans who want to actually date/marry their idols. Seizouki means 'manufacturing machine'. Together, they're basically saying that they're so charming they're manufacturing a bunch of delulu fans… ;;
<8> - 延長 (enchou) & えんじょう (enjou): The last line is a joke/pun... Aira asks for an extension on their time (延長/えんちょう/"enchou'), but Tomoya asks for a えんじょう/'enjou', meaning a controversy or blowing up online... Apparently it's a pretty common joke in internet fandom?
i drew a drawing along with this translation!! please go check it out!! :D
Petal's Resolution [Song Translation]
hello! i've decided to translate petal's resolution, one of my favorite solos in enstars :) i really love the meaning and how it ties to kohaku's character...! my translation takes some creative liberties for flow or localization, so it's not one-to-one with the original text, but i hope you all enjoy!
-------
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
I could only piece together a hazy image, like a faint dream in the landscape of my heart Is it really there, or is it all an illusion? I’ll convey this to you.
These dazzling petals resemble pixels If I continue piling them atop each other, will I be able to render it out? But all that’s reflected back is that thinly veiled, distinct yet unclear image
Let’s venture beyond this vivid, borrowed scenery (1)
If you cannot even touch it, cannot even talk about it, then it must be an illusion Can you name a flower without ever having known its scent? These feelings can't be locked away any longer
The characters of these petals spell out a novel Blossoming, but never falling My longing made me realize it was all just my own projection
Let’s go feel the colors without boundaries
If you long to touch, long to speak about it, let's meet and find out for ourselves Without understanding people’s hearts, you’ll never find your own meaning Because each of us are bound to be different
Surely, we can tread upon the traces of fallen flower petals while cherishing them Look, come here and tell me, how did it make you feel?
I find myself wanting to be close enough to touch, close enough to speak I’ll tear off the thin veil that separates the border between dream and reality Let's learn freedom in a world where we can feel the warmth (2) of the songbird’s (3) words My heart leaps towards the sweet scent of flowers I want to share it with you, the you who’s beside me
-------
TRANSLATORS NOTES
1 - 借景 (shakkei) is a Japanese word used in garden design, literally meaning "borrowed scenery". Wiki definition: the principle of "incorporating background landscape into the composition of a garden" found in traditional East Asian garden design.
2 - 言の葉の温度 lit translation: temperature of (its) words, i interpreted this as warmth
3 - 歌詠み鳥 (Uta yomi dori) is another name for the Japanese bush warbler. The name comes from the Kana Preface of the Kokin Wakashū.
I Love “Love”♡ [Song Translation]
aira’s solo has a special place in my heart <3 it’s super cute and super suiting for him…! i hope you all enjoy my translation :)

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
(HEY)
I completely get how you feel, after all, I feel the same way
You came to meet me today as well, and I can feel that unstoppable happiness coming through
Since you’ve been thinking about it 24/7, you haven’t been getting much sleep, have you?
The moment I shut my eyes, I see your sun-like smile because it’s too dazzling
Even when I’m feeling down, somehow courage wells up in me
That power you deliver to me! Lovely! Heart-fluttering!
I wanna give that to you too!
My heart’s packed full with so much overflowing love
The “like” that I’ve longed for took my hand and brought me here
So now it’s my turn! Especially when you’re wanting to try your best
I’ll gift you my energy, Lovely! Heart-fluttering! Loaded just FOR YOU♡
Aira~bu!
I LOVE “LOVE”♡ MY ALL HEARTS♡ (HEY!)
I LOVE “LOVE”♡ MY ALL HEARTS♡ (HEY!)
When our eyes met by chance, I’d thought ‘could it be?’
And it was true! I could see each person’s smiling faces
The scenery on the other side of that dream sparkled even brighter than that dream itself
And that’s something that’ll never change
Embracing it in my heart tightly, I’ll keep doing my best!
My heart has wings that can fly assuredly towards the sky, don’t you think?
Even though my wings are still small, I'll try my hardest to keep flapping!
The courage your cheers gave me is what made me realize it
The lovely love you give makes me become practically invincible! So much!
This packed message, let’s say it together!
Aira~bu!
I LOVE “LOVE”♡ MY ALL HEARTS♡ (HEY!)
I LOVE “LOVE”♡ MY ALL HEARTS♡♡ (HEY!)
I LOVE “LOVE”♡ MY ALL HEARTS♡♡♡ (HEY!)
I LOVE “LOVE”♡ MY ALL LOVE!!!!
Chat, did I cook? (Or did I deep fry you all)
I'll fix this later if I really wanna make that visual novel (´,,•ω•,,)
