I literally don't have a single artistic bone in my body but I've seen so many cool tumblr intros for their blogs and decided to make one so take my unaesthetic ugly intro.
About me →
My online name is Hori (Not like from Horimiya. Hori is actually my IRL nickname people use FOR me since it's a shortened version of my name)
I'm 19
I live in England (but my family and I are from Asia)
MBTI: ISFJ-A
Zodiac sign is Leo♌
Aromantic/ Asexual [Aroace]
I have a twin sister (she's a minute older than me)
I'm currently studying Psychology in Uni and that's what I'm majoring in!
BSD AND SOUKOKU FAN ALL THE WAY! I have been obsessed and hyperfixated on SKK for years it ain't even funny anymore
There’s obviously a difference between a person with talent, and one without: even a gifted father can’t always pass on his skills to his son. On the contrary, literature and poetry must be born from one’s own heart—how can they be based on some kind of teaching? Of course, in most arts you must take your first steps under a teacher’s guidance. But as you progress further, what special training can there be, outside of the standards you yourself erect as guideposts? ...Only when you have realized your own creative powers, will your art be truly your own.

I’m making this post on the behalf of Sami and his family. Fundraiser here.
Sami says:
"A simple picture, yet it holds a powerful meaning. Tell me what did you understand, and what will you do? 'I understood that these children are in urgent need of donations, and I will donate. I will also share this post—it might help in some way. This image is full of sorrowful meaning, and I will do everything I can for these innocent children. I will donate so that they can go to school, eat clean food, and sleep in peace.' This is exactly what is happening right now with me and my family in the heart of Gaza. Please, donate—share—speak up. Don’t stop. We are between life and death. Don’t leave us behind."
Please do anything you can to help, any engagement is appreciated even if you cannot directly give to the campaign. Thank you so much <3.
Note: It was written for the @skk-mixtape exchange for @cutie4me! It was super fun and cute to write dazai and chuuya as always. I love these two dorks.
Idk if I’ll ever finish this but the intro is done and I lost motivation for the actual edit. I threw on a huge experimental watermark so that this doesn’t get stolen as I spent HOURS on the animation yet still HATE it… If anyone has any transition ideas then let me know! I haven’t seen anyone animate BSD WAN before and IK this is corny and Dazai’s barely in it but, like I said, I lost motivation and gave up.🤷♀️
UPDATE:
EDIT IS NOW COMPLETED! I replaced the video with the new completed transition edit! Fanart credits to 1110yu_ku_si
OMG! It looks so good that I almost thought it’s was official at first glance if it weren’t for the huge watermark and the second time I looked at it. THAT SMILE IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN BONES FREAKISH JUMPSCARE OF A TURTLE SMILE THEY PLASTER ON ALL THE BSD CHARCATERS! Bones should actually learn a thing from you…
I’ve not wrote anything in a really long time but recently I’ve been feeling motivated to try out something small to get back into the gist of it so excuse my horrible writing style. I’m not sure if I’ll finish this project since I’m still working out the concept of this AU and this is just a prologue. More context of the AU might be out soon based off the world building of this Modern AU. I might however drop this fanfic all together if I lose interest (which I feel is likely)
“So you’ll look after him whilst I’m away?” Kouyou asked as she leaned against the railing of the balcony, blowing out a puff of smoke from the cigarette she held between her manicured fingers. She arched a perfectly gelled eyebrow over at Dazai, her gaze cold and serious as she waited for the man’s response. “Believe me, I would have picked literally anyone else but no else is available,” Kouyou continued with a resigned sigh. Dazai was the last person she would have picked for this task, especially considering his certain distaste for it but she was desperate and, whilst Kouyou Ozaki didn’t beg, she could at least scare the man a little to actually persuade him into performing the task with great excellence.
“Of course, I’ll look after your ridiculous mutt,” Dazai waved his hand and said airily from where he was currently lounging on the couch of his apartment. The doors to the balcony were wide open and was where Kouyou was currently standing. His attention was currently occupied by a magazine he was flicking through. A very obscene one at that.
“Dazai,” Her voice cut out sternly in warning as the older woman narrowed her eyes on him. She was serious about this. Her precious cross bred tan mix between chihuahua and pomeranian was at stake here and she needed to find someone last minute who she personally knew to look after him. “I know you… have a certain distaste for dogs-”
“Objection. I despise them.”
“-but you know that I’m between a rock and a hard place. You owe me this favour even if I don’t exactly trust you with dog-sitting.”
“Ane-San,” Dazai releases a sigh and puts down his magazine before shifting to sit up on the couch and turn his gaze over to her. He touched his hand under his chin and kept his expression serious before he continued to speak. “I would do any other task to repay the favour I owe you but dog-sitting.”
“I’ll pay you,” Kouyou grits her teeth and says. Her reaction caused Dazai’s eyes to glisten a little, now certainly intrigued. He knew Kouyou wasn’t the type to bribe unless necessary, especially not to a man like Dazai but of course he couldn’t resist the temptation. At least even if Dazai had a certain interest for personal gain, it wasn't like he was exploiting Ozaki since they at least had some mutual trust.
“If you think you can bribe me so easily then you’re surely mista-” Dazai is interrupted by the large wad of cash slammed down on the coffee table in front of him. He didn’t know why he got so spooked by the loud slam considering he should have expected it. He swallowed the lump in his throat to suppress the slight shiver of intimidation he felt from Kouyou’s piercing glare. “On second thought, Your pooch is in tolera- great hands…” Dazai gulped and smiled pleasantly at the woman. He eyed the wad of cash. It looked to be about 20,000 yen.
“I expect you to give him the best treatment while I’m away on my business trip in France,” Kouyou simply says with a rough scoff as she makes her way over to the entrance hall of Dazai’s apartment where she had left her sweet pup curled on a plush dog cushion on the floor. Chuuya was resting there, his paws tucked under his muzzle as he wagged his tail and yipped up at the sight of his owner. Besides him were all the other necessities Dazai would need to look after the dog: A dog bed, his carrier, leash, brush, food, bowl, etc and even those adorable outfits Kouyou made the pooch wear.
“I won’t be gone long, mon chien. This bastard will be looking after you in the meantime. Don't hesitate to bite him for me if he isn’t treating you right,” Kouyou coos as she crouches down and picks up Chuuya to cuddle and hold close to her chest, snuggling into the pup’s sweet caramel scented fur and nuzzling it. Dazai couldn’t help but scoff and roll his eyes at Kouyou’s words. Chuuya yipped again and licked his owner’s face, causing her expression to soften further, looking younger when happy. She gently placed the dog back down on his plush pet cushion and stood up again, gaining back her stern composure and dusting her chic and elegant suit.
“How’s your daughter doing?” Dazai instead decides to ask Kouyou in order to divert her attention from the topic of the pup at her feet.
Kouyou’s expression softens momentarily before hardening again and glaring at Dazai. “She’s doing well. I left her with someone much more reliable than you,” She retorts strictly.
Kouyou knew how much of a slob Dazai could be and how he could barely look after himself let alone a child so she had left her daughter, Kyouka, with her usual babysitter. A young lad that she had trusted over the years to look after Kyouka. He was a sweet and timid gentleman and was like an older brother to her daughter. Kouyou would have left Chuuya under Atsushi’s care too if Atsushi had the time. He was already working at a convenience store only having just graduated college recently and lived by himself with not much financial means but Kouyou had granted him lots of money in order to care for Kyouka in the meantime. With how busy the poor Lad was, he would have no time to be able to look after Chuuya too. Especially since Atsushi had a dog of his own and Kouyou didn’t want Chuuya to feel like he wasn’t getting the sole attention or had to compete for competition. Poor Chuuya was so frail and tiny in Kouyou’s eyes so he needed to be showered and pampered with love. Dazai may be a slacker but he had nothing better to do and needed to get his act together so at least he would have plenty of time to give Chuuya attention.
“I need to be off. Look after him for me, would you. I’ll be calling everyday to check up on him,” Kouyou said with finality before finally grabbing her purse and leaving, her heels clicking on the hardware of the floor to finally leave, the door to Dazai’s apartment clicking shut once she had stepped out, leaving Dazai alone with Chuuya now. She realised a little too late she could have hired a dogsitter instead but it was a little too late to go back on the deal now that Dazai had agreed.
The first thing Dazai did was scrutinise the mutt, scrunching up his nose in distaste as he eyed the tiny lapel dog coat and fedora hat Kouyou had dressed the pup up with. Chuuya was just some prissy purse pooch in Dazai’s opinion, spoiled and definitely an entitled brat. Dogs in clothes should definitely not be a thing. It was haunting and disturbing that people, like Kouyou, decided to play dress up with animals and treat them like their actual child. Chuuya seemed oblivious to Dazai’s attention and had gone back to snoozing on his comfy, luxury dog pillow, his dark tan fur glistening under the light that flooded in through the balcony door that had been left open. After a few seconds of staring, Dazai slumped back and released a prolonged and defeated sigh of resignation. Well, if he was going to be stuck with the mutt for a while, he might as well move everything to their respectable places and whatnot so they aren’t hogging his entrance. And as much as the brunette wanted to burn the plethora of doggie outfits, he knew he couldn’t unless he wanted Kouyou to go after his head (the man may be a suicide fanatic but he didn’t want this as his death wish).
How’d you all like the surprise in the end of Chuuya turning out to be the dog?🤭 This AU is inspired by the manga series ‘My Dog Becomes A Human’ (heavy hint to ff’s premise) it’s a really sweet and funny slice of life/comedy so go ahead and check it out! I’m honestly not sure if I’ll make any ships in this AU (Soukoku) because it’s be weird given Chuuya is a dog.
HELP ME! I LOVE THIS SM! For some reason this pic gives me intense nostalgia because it reminds me of my highschool days and walking back home from school during autumn with my friends. The memories were so sweet but it's a shame how much life changes as you grow and now moments as simple as these don't happen anymore. It's lovely to just appreciate the small things around you before it's gone. (And this being Soukoku is just a bonus)
Christmas is over a month away and even before Halloween the stores are already full of Christmas stuff!😭 And we still have Bonfire night Nov 5th between all that too here! I feel you Chuuya! (And no one came to my neighbourhood for Halloween either…)
happy ace week to everyone but this post is specifically for:
the aspecs who don't know what the fuck is up with their sexual attraction
the aspecs who don't understand attraction at all
the aspecs who bounce around between labels and can never pick one that fits you
basically all the aspecs who have ever been confused abt their asexuality
you're fucking VALID and i support you!! i know it sucks to be confused and to not know how to describe your experience. it's going to work out, i promise. and in the meantime, try not to get TOO hung up on labels. they're meant to help us understand ourselves, not to define us. you're amazing 💜
Don't ignore this post, you may save a family through it.

after much consideration, i am planning to host a soukoku mixtape exchange!
there are not any dates or solid plans for it yet, but i wanted to go ahead and do an interest check so that i could have an idea of how many people might be interested in participating in such an event, to help me figure out what kind of help/setup i may need for it!
what is a mixtape exchange?: a mixtape exchange is a type of fandom gift exchange where, instead of giving prompts, you instead choose a song and that will be sent to your assigned gifter to use as inspiration for your present!
this exchange would be focused on soukoku specifically
would you be interested in PARTICIPATING in a skk mixtape exchange?
yes, as a writer
yes, as a beta
yes, but *only* as a pinch hitter
unsure
no, not at all
no, unless [reason] (please explain!)
any other nuanced answer (please explain!)
Voting ended onOct 21, 2024
*if you would be willing to be a beta/pinch hitter AND a writer, please choose writer! or if you are willing to be a beta AND pinch hitter, please choose beta!
*if you chose one of the bottom two answers, PLEASE tell me about it! nothing is really planned yet so there is always a possibility that i will be more than willing to discuss what it is you're looking at/what may be holding you back!
*i know i did not include artists, i'm very sorry! but as this is my first time attempting to run an event, i am probably going to limit it to writers only. if the event goes well, i may do another one that DOES include artists as well, but for my own sanity i won't be doing it for the first one.
FEEL FREE TO SEND ME ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE! But also please be aware that i may not yet have solid answers as, again, the event hasn't actually been planned!
I wouldn't mind participating since my motivation is coming back to me. This sounds like a REALLY interesting idea. I love song-fics and listening to all sorts of genres and tried writing a few but never posted them cuz they're mainly incomplete multi-chapter ones which I don't have motivation to finish. If they're oneshots then I'd find it easier!
Being ace in fandoms is so awkward sometimes because yeah the allos like the irredeemably evil villain who has murdered countless innocent people and experiments on children because he's conventionally attractive, what's my excuse? I like this guy for his personality. His personality is a burning truck of chemicals without a driver rolling at 220 km/h down the hill towards the daycare.
And when you absolutely admire a character ppl assume you're one of them simps bcuz the character has a far too large female fanbase of fans... It's worst when there's self-insert fics with them and I'm just like NO- not for me! (My ace ass instead loves shipping characters with each other from the show instead and never myself!)

Emergency: Donations needed to survive through the winter!!
[plain text: Emergency: Donations needed to survive through the winter!! /end plain text]
I don’t know how to communicate to you all that Mahmoud Abu Hamam (@ma7moudgaza2) needs your continued attention. He has recently been a victim of fraud, which caused his bank to freeze his account. Now, he is barely getting any help at all.
Mahmoud currently has no access to the 11k he has painstakingly raised after MONTHS of campaigning. This is heartbreaking- all the compromises he had to make to get there; he gave up hopes of evacuating and then again of rebuilding, because nothing was coming in! Now, after a whole year of genocide, Mahmoud is still struggling to get donations. So please help him, now that he is campaigning only to collect survival funds. He needs the money to procure warm clothes and blankets for 20 family members, 10 of whom are children. Gazan winters are terrible and living in a tent with no blankets or warm clothes is a death sentence.
I promise you that your donations won’t go to waste even if Mahmoud has no access to his bank account. His organizer would send him funds via USDT but that cannot be done if there is nothing to send. So please, please galvanize yourselves for the Hamam family now. They have lost everything- their home, their peace, their dreams- and right now all access to lifesaving funds. Please DONATE AND BOOST. Circulate the fundraiser as an emergency amongst your family and friends. DM your mutuals, your close fandom friends but please help Mahmoud collect the necessary funds.
Currently $11,543 USD on the gofundme. Let us at least raise 1k and help Mahmoud reach $12,543.
The Hamam family has decided to focus their attention away from rebuilding their … Annie Hall needs your support for Support Muhammad in Gaz
Don’t forget, NO DONATION IS TOO SMALL. Mahmoud barely has anything left with him and it is not an exaggeration to say that your participation would essentially save his life.
Only $565 left till the short term goal. Please keep donating and help me provide my family with warm clothes and blankets for winter. My friends, I depend on your kindness to survive through this harsh winter.‼️
Only $448 left to go till I reach my goal and will be able to buy blankets and warm clothes for my family. Please my friends do not forget me, when I am so close to my short term goal. Keep donating and save me from suffering through a terrible fate during the harsh winter.
