eclipse first, the rest nowhere.

second. 28. they/them. the horsegirls. they compel me.

[beeline-burst]

hi, I’m second! if you know me from elsewhere, you know me from @theminecraftbee or my ao3, bee_4. this is an uma musume sideblog where I will talk about the horsegirls I am a fan of! I also may start posting ficlets here because I am very compelled.

as a general rule, I don’t tag reblogs, but I tag original posts. I make no guarantee about tagging specific triggers, though I try to; still, read at your own risk.

my favorite is matikanefukukitaru! I also like symboli rudolf, mihono bourbon, and grass wonder a lot.

I’ve only played global, so be patient if I say something that betrays I don’t know the japan spoilers.

I play like, so much of the game and will happily chat about in-game stuff or my friend code as well!

Umamusume is an extremely funny series to introduce to someone because not only is the core premise absurd (gijinkas of famous Japanese racehorses who run races that mirror the careers of the horses they're based on while also being idols), but it feels like every other writing and worldbuilding decision is somehow even more absurd than the last

[doubleca5t]

The series takes place at what is ostensibly a high school but the umas have careers that occur years if not decades apart. The umas do not age, no one appears to ever leave Tracen Academy if they don't want to and there is no satisfying explanation for how this works

Despite, again, all of then ostensibly being in high school, some umas act like grown adults who pay taxes and others act like they're no more than 8 years old

Canonically, no one gambles on the uma races.

The creators had to patch some of the story dialogue because they accidentally created a timeline where the modern day Republic of Ireland has a monarchy

Super Creek wants you to do age regression with her because she likes playing mommy

Admire Vega had a twin sister who was aborted in the womb and said dead fetus is now a literal ghost that actively haunts her

Matikanefukukitaru also has a dead sister and she isn't being haunted but she does have religious psychosis

The creators get permission from the owners of all the horses before putting them in the game. The owner of Daiwa Scarlet allegedly approved her inclusion in the game on the one condition that she be given bigger boobs than her main rival, Vodka

Vodka drinks tea from a flask

Agnes Digital writes erotic friend fiction of the other umas

Streets have dedicated uma lanes

The Statue of Liberty is an umamusume

mildly scary page from the Umamusume anthology where Gold Ship thinks about uma supremacy for a few seconds before deciding hanging out with Special Week means the current world order is actually fine

I feel like this has to be a shout out to ghost in the shell where the blue spider robots contemplate starting a robot rebellion only to realize everything they want out of a robot rebellion is something they already had

May Shiraoki Smiles Upon You

With Manhattan Cafe being able to see the supernatural, she can probably see Shiraoki.

However, as Fuku cannot see Shiraoki directly and only through omens and the little things she does, Fuku thinks she just got a benevolent minor goddess watching over her.

Cafe, however, can see the full scope of Shiraoki, a vast and incomprehensible divine deity of chance and probability, whose gaze is for some reason cast downward at this little quirky horse girl.

The mortal mind is not meant to comprehend the chaotic nature of the cosmo in its fullness, and to look upon the divine is chance them looking back at you.

i used to hc that this was about teio and rudolf because obviously if there is an unnamed injuree, i have to go with #1 bone-breaking-blorbo. but like rudolf wouldn't do this, teio wouldn't cry to her about an injury, all the evidence points to they wouldn't do this, so it wasn't really a hc it was more like wishful thinking, it happened once in a dream. but ☝️ there is another student who is canonically older than teio: air groove

my evidence is trust me bro. no this is literally so them, like their whole thing is that know one knows they even argue all the time, nevertheless hang out together, so please imagine teio gets injured and groove gets asked to bring her to the infirmary because she's literally the vice president, she's responsible(tm). boom, suddenly they're alone together because no one was in the infirmary, and no one is the least bit suspicious. as for what digitan saw, teio is either playing things up to annoy groove (something she loves to do) or it could be real. teio doesn't like talking about her injuries and how they affect her, she likes to act like everything is fine and just strong-arm her way through it. there's a lot of evidence of her doing that. teiguru is teiguru because it is secret, where else is better to air secret issues? who is groove going to tell? no one, because she'd also have to admit to actively spending time with teio and she won't do that. anything teio says in there most likely won't leave that infirmary, so it;s the perfect time to get how much these injuries bother her off her chest.

they need to lay low for a while after this, because if the agnes digital is onto them, it's so fucking over for them

[maruzenskys-commodore64]

Air Groove sees Teio exit the student council office out the window, again, rolls her eyes, then sees Teio isn't getting up and is like "...oh."

Why is Digitan getting Yuri headache? This is like if alcoholic gets the shakes after drinking. Makes no sense.

[get-groovei]

not yuri headache, writer's block 👍

Thinking about the universe where my Trainersona is paired with Mejiro Dober and at first she's like "normally men make me nervous, but I feel relaxed around you Trainer" and he just takes it as a compliment but as the career goes on he slowly realizes that she has some shit she should probably unpack
