tenured leader of the "Kuresawa Enjoyers Canada" organization of which I am the founder and sole member.
(most of my posts are queued. likes and follows will be from @danceintheskies!)
This is my quarantine zone sideblog for posts relating to Harusono Shou's body of work. Created because the alternative (me sending constant feverish rants to my friend who only saw like three episodes of the sasamiya anime) felt inadvisable
The primary target audience for this blog is me. Present and future. I want to be able to catalog and look back on all my thoughts related to her work and the posts I enjoy that are related to it. I will be really annoying and that's a promise. The secondary target audience for this blog is anyone else that likes her stuff! Love and peace on planet manga. I don't mind messages/asks at all, but I might be slow to answer them. :)
I have like three whole adjectives in my vocabulary. See if you can spot them all. Also I tend to reblog older posts a lot; if I reblog something that you'd rather leave forgotten, tell me and I'll delete it! No hard feelings. Also also, most of my posts are queued way in advance.

Thanks for reading this far. [opening wallet] [10 000 pictures of Kuresawa come out of it] Aw fuck my sawas
me at 22: haha, now WHY would I even so much as bother looking at this $22 pot when, if I sort by cheapest, there's one for $14?? What's it gonna do? Hold water worse? I'm a genius budgeter
me at 29: *looking at the reviews for an $80 oven-safe cast iron braiser*: they say it makes shakshuka like a d ream....
harusono shou was for real so crazy for this. what the heeeeeeeeellllllllllllll man . jesus. nostalgic like a memory of summer when i went to visit my relatives in the countryside and played with a boy whose name i didnt even know, like a feeling that ill never see him again . ???????????????? christ
sasaki piercings -> ennui and boredom. he got them just because. better than feeling nothing. even after consciously choosing to become a gentle person, he's still wearing them like a brand. he's aware of how Other of a person he is, but is too tired to really care. It's a pain to hide, isn't it?
hanzawa piercings -> anger and frustration and hopelessness!!!!! the tug-of-war between wanting to exert your own autonomy and be your own person v.s. remembering that you have a part to play. he carefully and systematically hides it just out of sight to avoid confrontation. getting mad is pointless, isn't it?
hirano piercings -> aren't they awesome? hirano is someone who's driven and self-assured enough to accomplish what he sets out to do, other people be damned. this includes indulging in his weird, flashy sense of style.
kuresawa piercings -> gentle admiration and passion. He wants to emulate someone he admires, especially in how driven they are to get what they want. and they're cool, of course.
ogasawara piercings -> cosmically predetermined so his girlfriend could more effectively torment him with yaoi
When Hirano groans and his eyebrows twitch, Sasaki feels his heart leap into his throat. The clock suggests his bedside vigil has only been a couple of hours, but this morning feels like it was another lifetime ago.
Hirano grunts. His eyes open slowly, glazed over and unfocused. He slowly blinks himself back into awareness. His lip twitches when he sees Sasaki.
"'the fuck happened to me?"
"You got hit by a bike," Sasaki says, his voice teetering on hysteric. On some level, it's objectively hilarious; Hirano flies planes for a living, but it's a walk down his own street that's landed him in a hospital.
"Fuck," he mutters again. He attempts to move his arm, and Sasaki watches his expression shift from confusion to a wary glance down at himself, and then to resignation when he sees the cast. His closes his eyes and swears again under his breath.
Sasaki wants to tell him that it's not as bad as it looks, that his wrist broke cleanly, he's only slightly concussed, and the lacerations on his body didn't even require stitching. He wants to say that they have proof now that the rest of Hirano is just as hard as his head. What comes out of his mouth is instead,
"Since when am I your emergency contact?"
Hirano's nose wrinkles, and it's unclear if he's bothered by the question itself or generally being asked to think. "Long time," he finally manages. "Water?"
There's a bottle on the nightstand, and Sasaki helps Hirano lift his head, brings the straw to his lips. Hirano gulps half of it down in one enormous swig, then winces in pain. "Slow down," Sasaki chastises with barely any bite to it.
A long time. But how long? How long has Sasaki been the person Hirano trusted the most in a crisis?
Hirano drinks the rest of the water in small sips, and leans his head back. Sasaki cradles his skull until he's supported by the pillow once more. He follows with his lips, pressing a gentle kiss on Hirano's forehead. His head is buzzing, full of even more questions now than there'd been five minutes prior. But Hirano trusts him, and needs him.

It's rendered in sketchy linework and watercolor-esque colors, using a limited color palette of purple, brown, dark orange, orange, and light yellow, labeled "18." on the side. Hanzawa is wearing a striped button-up shirt, smiling and cupping his face in his hands. The artist's signature "sunnfish" and a smily face is written near his shoulder. /End ID]
realizing i didnt clarify how much Effort id put into these but suffice to say. This Much Effort. yaaaayyy
Hello everyone, it's finally time to reveal the pairings for the Mini Bang! We'll reach out to everyone via email to let you know your assigned partner, so make sure to check your inboxes! If you don't receive an email by the end of the day, let us know asap!
✦ As you may already know, due to the final ratio of artists and writers, we decided that we would assign two artist partners per writer. This means that each written work will have two pieces of artwork to go with it. These pieces may be independent from each other and worked on separately, or you may choose to reach out to each other and coordinate your pieces if you wish. As long as the end result is two pieces of art for one piece of writing, collaborations are allowed! Otherwise, everyone is free to work one-on-one with their respective partner/s as per usual.
For any questions or issues regarding pairings or getting in touch with each other, please reach out to us!

[ID: A digital drawing of Ichinose from Sasaki to Miyano. He's shown from the waist up, standing in the rain with a folded up umbrella, staring at the sky. It's rendered with sketchy linework and watercolor-esque colors, using a limited color palette of indigo, dark blue, blue, light blue, and red, labelled "2." on the side. The background is indigo, his skin is light blue, and he's wearing a red sweater with a red umbrella. The artist's signature "sunnfish" is written above his shoulder. /End ID]
theres a halfbaked metaphor here in relation to that one hirakagi chapter. with the rain.
