*clever saying*

tbh at this point idek what this blog is

[pocket-jack]

Senku: Let's make it clear. My personal space has a radius of 4 meters. If you'll move a centimeter farther than that, then you'll be invading it

Kohaku: But what about Gen!? He's totally invading and you're fine with it!

Senku: Cus Gen is not invading anything. He's standing exactly in the MSZ of my personal space; Mentalist's Special Zone.

Gen joins in, standing awfully close to Senku: Hi~

Senku: See? The only person who takes my personal space seriously btw

[shouts-into-the-void]

Taiju and Yuzuriha have loved each other for 3,705 years and Tajiu's desire to tell Yuzuriha kept him conscious for the entire time he was petrified

Senku trusted without a doubt that Taiju was still alive and that he would be conscious enough to break through the stone without Revival Fluid, with no evidence to back it up

Yuzuriha used to pay attention to all of Senku's science lectures and he turned the science flag she made him into the symbol for the Kingdom of Science

Chrome literally spent his entire life rediscovering science and beat the second strongest warrior in the village to try and heal Ruri

Even while leading opposite sides of a war and trying to kill each other, Tsukasa and Senku considered each other best friends and they know each other so well they can predict the other's behavior

Gen, even before he'd met or decided to side with him, had already grown an incredible fondness for Senku and went so far as to condemn his soul to hell (his own words) to further his goals

Kohaku had complete trust in Senku immediately, despite never having heard of half of the things he talked about past the negative association with sorcery and is one of the only people to notice how much he actually misses his dad

[sengenism]

nothing is going to beat gen doing insane mathematics and calculating senku's birthday to surprise him with an observatory... but let's talk about how senku had an entire thought process to surprise gen with his homemade cola too!

senku's guide on how to surprise a mentalist:

1) drop some hints that a certain mentalist's favourite cola is going to be made but don't be an idiot who makes it too obvious

2) leave the mentalist alone to find the carbonated water and raise his stupid hopes up

3) tease him further for getting them up in the first place, taking a page out of his (literal trashy) book...

4) predict his decision on staying behind and leave the last subtle hint that will push him to the right direction

5) ... and if you end up with a satisfied mentalist who will never leave your side, well, don't say you weren't warned!

Chrome: Synonyms are weird because if you invite someone to your cottage in the forest, that just sounds nice and cozy. But if I invite you to my cabin in the woods you’re going to die.

Ryusui: My favorite is explaining the difference between a butt dial and a booty call.

Senku: It’s called connotations.

Gen: Try this one on for size, “Forgive me, Father, I have sinned” vs “Sorry, Daddy, I’ve been naughty."

Ukyo: Great news! Language is now banned!

Sengen is so weird to me cause when I get into a fandom I tend to gravitate to ships that have certain tropes: enemies to lovers, rivals, sun/moon, best friends to lovers, soulmates and so on.

But Sengen isn't any of that? Like don't get me wrong i do love other ships in fandoms that don't follow tropes but for a main ship in the fandom its so normal? (Weird bc literally nothing about them is normal) They like eachother because they do. That's it. They just enjoy being in eachothers company. No 'the universe put them together' kind of stuff, no its because they just want to.

There's something so simple about that, that I just love. They dont follow a trope or pattern or anything. They are just themselves, and it's because they are themselves that they are together. No fate, no destiny just two people choosing to be together. They don't have the whole 'Soulmates in every universe' thing, they just choose eachother.

And that makes it hit so much more than any other ship in any other fandom I'm in.

THEYRE SO FUCKING CLINGY

[sengenism]

crazy how senku won the poker game because he is just that obsessed with gen

hold on i can elaborate! so everyone and their mothers knew gen was going to cheat and were being extra cautious of his actions. naturally, kohaku caught onto gen's cheating tricks multiple times with her sharp eyes, but as it turns out, gen was purposefully being obvious about it. then senku caught onto something kohaku didn't, just from noticing the odd posture that gen took– the bug inside gen's sleeve

this is something one would notice only if they pay close attention to gen. senku immediately clocked gen out for this rare boorish posture the millisecond gen took this sitting stance, because it's such an odd pose for gen, who usually sits in a more refined manner. and senku who knows gen so well they can communicate without words, would of course, notice something as obvious as this... something kohaku and her sharp eyes didn't because she doesn't observe gen as closely as senku does

but gen was 4d chess-ing senku anyways. he knew senku would notice that and it was all a distraction. and while senku and kohaku were busy checking the cards, he pulled his final act to switch ryusui's cards

what gen didn't expect was just how much senku had learned from him... senku had tricked gen back by using the invisible lacquer he was allergic to. so senku was using science and manipulation to trick gen– a mix of both of their fields (and so was gen)

but their final move was a representation of their respective field. senku's was the invisible lacquer (science) and gen's was the distraction and quick switch (mentalism and magic). and so the conclusion to their poker game– which was really a "hard science vs soft science" competition– showed that senku's hard science knowledge won over gen's soft science skills... which was why gen took the competition so personally

because if gen had paid more attention to senku as a mentalist ought to do, gen could've caught onto senku's real plan TT too bad he isn't as insane as senku

[putcreativenamehere]

If Yuzuriha knew Gen was being sent to see if Senku was still alive she probably thought "oh Senku is gonna be so mad." Because he has definitely mentioned (ranted) about how Asagiri Gen is such a fraud and his books are trash.

Then when her and Taiju join back up with Senku, she sees how close they are. How Senku lets this "scam magician" in his personal space. How he gets in Gen's personal space. How they are literally always together.

She knew without even asking him that Senku was in love and it was very much requited.

Ryusui: Hey, Senku, are you free on Friday? Like around eight?

Senku: Yeah.

Ryusui: And you, Gen?

Gen: Umm... yes?

Ryusui: Great! Because I'm not. You two go out without me. Enjoy your date!

Gen: Did he just-

on the same throne, matching suits and bracelets, wearing rings... oh they piss me off

gen's go-to intro

They seem to be very good friends ♡

[bekkomi]

If...Gen snap his fingers

[yutamayo]

Gen calculating Senku's birthday through a random note on a tree and an insane number of days recieved by asking a leading question so he could build an astronomy observatory as a gift was a very straight thing to do if you ask me

[irafook]

“Fine.” Gen propped his head in his hand and examined Senkuu through his lashes. “You know, I’ll admit, Senkuu-chan, before all this terrible flower business, I thought you were asexual–or, I suppose, somewhere on that continuum. And even with this, you still could be, of course. But are you?”

And Senkuu…Senkuu blushed .

Time stopped. Fuck, the world might’ve actually stopped turning and Gen wouldn’t have noticed anything out of this observatory.

He didn’t even know Senkuu was capable of blushing–theoretically, sure, but then again if anyone could and would find a scientific preventative for normal physiological emotional indicators, it was him.

Gen grinned

Oh, and it was a really terrible blush, too. Senkuu’s lighter complexion didn’t help anything when pale red bloomed up his neck and over his cheeks, all the way up to his ears.
