Hi! Call me Jax, 21yrs, ♀️, and welcome to those who were able to find this account!
This is me actually attempting to have an online presence for once through this little online journal. Also, because no one who knows me owns a Tumblr, I can be my true nerdy self here with no shame!!
( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ )
So yeah, stick around, and I'll do my best to actually post stuff once in a while

Have you ever read "Meet the Nijiku's" by startica? It's a part of one of my favorite Janka series, please give it a shot, it's sooo great! What I'll talk about next is a spoiler for ch.3. Skip this part if you don't wanna deal with that!! ... Okay, so like hyperfixation kicked in after ch.2 (Author, you are a cruel, cruel person for the cliff hanger. Especially after ch.3!!!), and I started to think about the possibilities of what Janka's rings could do! My biggest theory was that it would work as a poison (ofc) for both, with the results making Jabber and Zanka act more like each other. I thought about it so much, I have to get it out of my system here!!
Enjoy my insane ramblings of a prompt/fanfic idea/headcanon based on one of my favorite fics!!
I really like the idea of Zanka slowly losing any sense of control and just letting loose for once, ya'know? At first, it's just his anger getting the better of him; the smallest of things annoy him more than usual. Someone is eyeing him? People gossiping together? A backhanded compliment? It just ticks him off more and more until he's so angry that yelling doesn't seem good enough. No, he needs to get it out physically. He doesn't care about being Mr. Cool; his reputation doesn't mean a thing. Zanka, Mr. Nothing-special-about-him, is going to make them respect him.
This is when the Jabber effect takes place. Because of his need to outshine the geniuses, he'll do anything and everything to get the upper hand. He'll look at every flaw others don't notice and use it to his advantage. Like with his introduction scene or first training day with Rudo, he'll observe, fixate, and obsess over what makes them special and destroy it! Is this OOC? Yes. But I'm also obsess wth personality swap Janka soooo.
This doesn't change the fact that he's under the influence of poison. His ring's ability will last a loooong while once taken effect. Even if he took it off, Zanka's gonna need to be strapped down until he's better. It's a painful aftermath. Zanka has no memory of what happened; the last thing he knows is that his blood pressure was through the roof for no reason at all. Very fun recovery period, lemme tell you!
Now Jabber is a fun story of "Possibly the worst/ best experience from poison ever." To start with, we all know that Jabber is an experimental/ interactive learner. He learns by doing (e.g., Jabber experimenting with the Protective Amulet's abilities), but when the poison takes over, he doesn't even need to test; he just knows. He'll know how everyone around him will react with Mankira. To put it simply, it's like how I am with my Adderall. Focused and clear of mind. No distractions, no side-tracking; just working from task to task. There's no point in trying anything; it's a matter of fact, just like 1 + 1 = 2. Because of that, he's calmer, more relaxed, and so damn bored.
The downside of being a poison addict is that he's developed a high tolerance to everything he's got. He could down liters of Mankira, and he'd only be tripping for 5 minutes at best. Not even fighting people will make things fun, no matter if they're weak or strong, since he already knows the results; what's the point?
The effect doesn't last long, which is a blessing for Jabber. He'll be out of it for a bit; nothing to worry about. Once it's over, he'll be his normal (insane) self!
You may be asking yourself, Jax, this is great and all, but what's the point of rings that just make them worse for wear? The answer is simple, my dear reader! Efficiency.
The only reason why their rings would activate is because Jabber and Zanka must be reunited asap! They make each other worse and better as a couple; it's one of the reasons I love them as a ship. I love the idea of them being more like each other and suffering because of it. They are total opposites; trying to be anyone but themselves wouldn't work out, it's just not who they fundamentally are. Zanka wouldn't start a fight unprovoked. Jabber wouldn't avoid using a poison as far as we can tell. They balance each other out, so being together at all times is the best.
Did my idea turn out to be the slightest bit right? No, not at all. In fact, the author's idea is way more interesting and confusing. I'm so excited to learn more about the ring's properties in the next chapter! Sorry if this post doesn't make much sense. If you like this idea at all, go ahead and use it! I ain't gatekeeping this, I would make a fic myself based on it if I was any good at writing. Unfortunately, I am a drawer through and through.
All jokes aside. Whenever I read an unfinished fic, and the last update was in 2020, with absolutely no sign of the writer's presence anywhere online, I just feel the fear sting into my heart. 2020 was a truly terrifying, I'm praying humanity doesn't have to suffer through that again.
It has been Months MONTHS since I've been able to draw anything related to my GachiGajinkas and I've finally found the time to post my next drawing. Omg you have no idea how badly I've been wanting to work on them I've suffered for soooo long and it's not ever the end of the semester yet God help me. But in case they don't here's a teaser for my next gajinka!! I think it might be obvious who it is but I hope ya enjoy my sketches ntl!! Lmk if you have any critiques or questions, as always I am open to anything!!
And yes I did have a lot more fun in my second full body sketch! Thanks for noticing <3
MINIKATAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG I didn't expect to see him again like this!! With the MagiKeepers!!! Maskless!!!! Holy shit, he looks similar to Ichi!! Like, if I didn't know better, I'd think Mina was his actual dad or something!
So does that mean that when we suddenly disappeared, we were, we actually left to join the Keepers? Was he scoted or something?? I truly didn't expect to see him so soon!
Also, his scar is badass as fuck I love, love, looooovvveeeeee itttttttt!!!!!
But is it just me, or is he acting differently? Like maybe it's only me here, but Mina in Ichi's memories seems more energetic, ya'know? 'Could just be Ichi's pov talking here, or me misremembering things, but whatever!
I never thought about it, but Nirei and Suo are good foils for each other
SPOILERS FOR WB MANGA LEADING UP TO CH210!!!!
I've been so focused on manifesting a TsugeSuo Chapter, when I should've seen SuoNirei and their foils between truth and lies.
I'm breaking down my thought process as I type, so bear with me!
When it comes to Nirei, he is a naturally curious soul, ya'know, from day one that is established. When it comes to his fixation on delinquents, nothing escapes his notebook. He writes the smallest of details about everyone he meets. Especially if they're from Bofurin! Hell, we see how extensive his research is in the manga character profiles, which are depicted as Nirei's Notebook!
He's so fixated on everyone related to Bofurin that he's a natural lie detector of sorts. For example:
The Infamous Natto-Reveal scene!! One of the first true facts we learn about Suo, from someone else, is that he hates Natto! But this only happened because Suo said his weakness was "manju," which was a lie. I don't believe Nirei's the type to out someone who is lying in a sense. I mean, if it comes to Sakuro and Bofurin, sure, he'll go against it, but he's not the type to deny a white lie of sorts. If anything, he'll only tell the truth if it's a solid fact he knows. Which is what happened here, Nirei knew the truth and said it bluntly, possibly without even questioning to reveal it or not, but to say it because he knew the facts. What I'm trying to say is that when it comes down to it, Nirei is the type to reveal the truth about someone if false information gets shared. On the other hand...
Suo's a liar. Straight up. Like everything we know about him is through observation, sparce one panel flash backs, and Suo being kind enough to actually tell the truth for once. Even that one scene where Suo gives Nirei a taiyaki in the anime was overwritten from the manga to fit the canon of his diet! (Or at least I believe that's what happened, but anyway-) Suo doesn't talk about himself; he is the type to direct the conversation in a general direction without putting himself in the spotlight, and ironically enough, will call you out if you try to lie to yourself.
Seriously, this guy is great at reading people and will call you out on your bullshit. He's one of many characters that can break down a person's thought process and motives because of how aware he is of those around him.
He's a hypocritical liar who helps others push through their own subconscious lies.
Which brings us to today! A fight I never saw coming, but a genuinely intriguing one with a pretty good setup. Nirei wants the truth; he wants to know the facts on why Suo is suddenly leaving out of nowhere, trying to disappear like he never existed. While Suo left one more happy little lie for everyone to believe, even though it's quickly unraveling. He never talks about himself except for the bare minimum, and that was okay, until now. Nirei doesn't know why, but he's willing to pry an explanation from Suo, even if he has to die trying (jkjk please I'm trying not to manifest this). Lord knows what's going through Suo's head. And I have no idea if Nirei will be able to get any other truth out of him. But I hope that whatever happens gives us something to work with!
AAANnnnddddd yeah! That was my TED Talk! I don't think I stuck the landing just right, but I think I made my hope for this arc apparent, so I'll live with it! Hope ya'll enjoyy lmk what ya'll think about this latest chapter, and I wish ya'll a good night/day!

THIS THIS IS THE ENERGY I MEAN WITH THE LOVE SICK AU ONG THEY ARE PERFECT I LOOOOVVVVEEEEEEEE!!!!
I MORE PLEEEAAASSSEEEEEE
AMAZING WORK PHENOMENAL 10/10 WILL RECOMMEND!!!
What kind of vision would the Gachiakuta characters have in a Genshin AU? And where would they come from? Here are some of my own opinions as a very casual player:
- Rudo: Khaenri'ah(?), outside the world of Genshin (like the traveler), or Nodkrai specifically/ Pyro
-Riyo: Fontaine (turns out there was a French Jack the Ripper, who knew!)/ Anemo or Hydro
-Enjin: Honestly, hard to say, but maybe Mondstate/ Hydro or Dendro
-Zanka: Inazuma/ Electro, Cryo, or Geo
I'd like to imagine the cleaners exploring the world, working with the (or as the) Adventurers guild. Like, they all have their cleaner outfits, just genshinfied to an extent. Some of those Genshin fits would not work, you know? Especially because of the clashing aesthetics. Although lowkey would love to see different characters switch universes either way.
Anyway, that's all for now. I've been posting a lot recently, but don't get used to it! I'm only halfway through this hell of a semester yet!
My brain is currently cycling fixations rn, and it hurts cause I got school projects, work, and ugggghhhh
Currently got stuck on a Tokyo Revengers magical girl au with the outfit themes being different yokai (with genderbend because ofc it is)
Specifically, this one Bajitorafuyu part:
- Bajitorafuyu are all in unrequited (requited) love for each other, with Bajitora being the only ones to confess to each other thus far, and are trying to figure out how Fuyu feels about them.
-Chifuyu thinks they're already together, then wonders if they are, why haven't they told Fuyu + experiencing a little internalized homophobia
-She doesn't want to rock the boat of their relationship now, but yearns to be with them both even more. But it's not natural to like someone of the same gender, let alone two people at the same time, right? If she confesses, it could ruin everything. Then she'd be left with nothing
-She's used to being alone and doesn't want to bother others with he feelings and figured the best way to handle everything is to delete herself from the narrative entirely.
-This leads to Fuyu getting her own corrupted form with the ability to summon snow that makes everyone forget her.
-So it's snowing, and everyone's outside and gets caught in it, forgetting Chifuyu
-Only for Tora to look at the calendar and see Fuyu's birthday marked. She remembers her the next second
-Calling everyone up and asking if they've seen her. It takes a second for everyone to remember her existence
-They figure out something's wrong and agree to go hunt down Fuyu together. The problem is how they'll find her, when every time they go outside, they forget her the next second?
-Baji then realizes that she also hasn't seen Peke J all day and guesses that he might be with Chifuyu right now. She tells Tora to replace Fuyu's name with Peke J and go outside. Then send a text to everyone for help to find Peke J
-That way, even when they forget Fuyu, Peke J will take her place in their memory. Everyone will see the text and think to go look around for Peke J. Especially when it comes to celebrating a cat, Baji is so fond of
-They leave, see the message, and immediately go searching for 'Peke J.'
-Bajitora finds him in the arms of a familiar-looking girl they've never seen before and starts talking to her. The girl is dodgy and seems to want to get away immediately, but something within them is screaming to not let her disappear
-It's only when the girl slips up and calls Baji, "Baji-san," that they think something else is going on. Immediately pressing the girl on why she knows Baji and what she was doing with Peke J
-She's silent for a bit, then says, "Why couldn't you both leave it alone?" and reveals herself in her corrupt Mg form
-Skipping over the fighting bit, but near the end, Fuyu is practically begging for them to leave her alone and forget her
-I'm doing this for you. Why can't you two just let me help you this one time? Can't you see this is for the best? I just want you both to be happy. Why can't you understand that?
-But Bajitora can't comprehend how literally erasing her existence would make anyone happy, nor do they get how she didn't just talk to them.
-Fuyu loses and re-transforms, returning to normal. The second she's awake, they press her again for answers, and Fuyu breaks down crying, spilling the truth of her feelings and woas
-Bajitora are like, "You seriously transformed into that because you liked us??? You didn't know we liked you too?!?!"
-Love confessions galore, happy ending, fluffy end~
Wow, this is a lot more cringy/clithe than I'd thought it'd be! Might actually draw some stuff for this au, it's been a minute since I did anything Magical girl related frfr
Hope ya'll enjoyed my insane Tokyorev ramblings, use this idea if you like, I ain't gatekeeping
Bye-bye~!
Whenever I'm really into something, I like to imagine different uses for it, like one often does. One such aus is a kinda Yandereish au, it works like this:
I got inspired by the love potions/spells trope, where it's like a love poison, kinda. It's not an actual spell or potion, but a mental disorder or flu where a person will lose all sense of rationality and go yandere for their love interest for a bit, and then return to reality afterwards. During the condition, they will be obsessed with the person they're in love with and will crave their attention to the point of the classic yandere trope. Add in an element of hanahaki disease, where rejection from their love interest is the most painful experience in the world, and you get my Love sickness au!
It's a common thing in the au, so there are actual studies and science behind it all, but I hate science, so I'll skip over that part.
Ex. Janka
- Zanka catches the sickness and starts stalking Jabber. Follows him around when he's free, constantly checks his socials, and beats anyone who Jabber expresses even the smallest bit of interest in the second he's away (classic stuff atp)
-Jabber's able to clock Zanka's condition immediately and finds it both hilarious and something else. It's up to you how something else is interpreted, but it's a mix of something both positive and confusing. (Lord knows Jabber is only smart when it comes to his interests)
-Think of fics like:
One day we'll have a pretty wedding and I'll be your everything by your_local_npc
My Man My Man My Man! by startica
These are the peak embodiment of this idea! I looovvveee fics like this, toxic lovers or not! Give me possessive fanfics with hints of obsession and yandere, and I'll be a happy camper!! Absolute top tier fics btw, love them sooo much!! If the authors find this post, know that you have made my obsession with janka sooooo much worse, thank you!
But yeah, I've had this on my mind for a bit, so I thought I'd talk about my favorite love-sick au. I like all these tropes mentioned to an extent, and this is the mixture of all of them in one. Use it as you will, I'm not gatekeeping! Bye-bye~!! |˶˙ᵕ˙ )ノ゙
Tried making a fit for jojo7 release, only to remember that I have lab tomorrow, so I gotta wear something that covers most of my skin. Mind you, lab's in the middle of the day, and my last class is 3 hours after, and I have stuff to do in between. And it'll be the hottest day of the week. smh I just wanna wear a cute fit for jojo7, why's it gotta be this complicated
(╥﹏╥)
Made a sketch of Eishia and August. The best siblings ever. Seriously, manga readers get it, they're so sweet I need to see them interact more outside of work!! INCLUDING GRANDMA STILZA, I WANNA SEE HER AGAIN SOON
Wave of Lovely Assistaff sketches, don't worry, I haven't forgotten my girl, school's been keeping me busy yaknow? The last one in particular is my favorite! Played around with the idea of Lovely getting used to her new human body. I'd imagine that she'd have a lot of trouble with new senses. Loud noises make her jump, taste buds are weird, and smell is just plain horrible. Especially if it smells bad, she's probably left dry heaving for a minute. The second one is a silly keychain idea I've been amusing, that might be a later thing, maybe.
Last but not least, a surprise Neru?! Triple Baka gang's been on my mind for a minute now, so I thought I'd try drawing all of them together. I have yet to draw the others, but I really wanna finish this. Love when artists have Neru talk through her phone, it's a fun idea that makes sense for her, ya know?
Aaand yeah! Sorry, I've been MIA for a minute there. Life's been crazy for a minute, and I've just now got the chance to relax again. Ofc that will only last for about another week before midterms, wish me luck. For now, though, I bid you farewell~!
Here's my latests Gachisketch as a bonus! Spoiler warning for the manga!!!
Made this Amo sketch. Originally, it was supposed to be orange, but I ran out of ink. I went over it in pink for the second one. Love Amo, she's a pretty princess who deserves only nice things!! Her eyes were sooo fun to drawww, loved making them lamb like, so unique!!
I'm greedy for Janka yuri fics
Doesn't matter if it's Fem x Fem Janka, Butch x Fem Janka, or
Butch x Butch Janka; I just want more Janka Yuri fics
Amen
