Homemade chocolate coconut milk ice cream garnished with Ghirardelli® Twilight Delight 72% cacao chocolate pieces for the eyes, bananas, sliced kiwifruit, a waffle cookie, and a single maraschino cherry placed on top. Covered generously with homemade caramel sauce.
(Inspired by the ‘Just Dessert’ spray.)
Well, I guess we suspected something like that …
Still I almost choked on my breakfast!
Wow, what a shocker. Not.
Young Shiro is hella cute, though. I’m glad this poor, unhappy baby turned into one badass dad.
YASSSSSS
Shirou– A name like “Shirou”…. Fujimoto Shirou?! Even I know roughly what the former Paladin looks like… He’s young but there’s no mistake! @facets-and-rainbows
CAN WE TALK ABOUT THESE NAMES THOUGH
In Chapter 86 I thought they were just random animal kanji plus 郎 (rou, common ending for boy names) but then when you see the whole list together it’s like
Az-Mi001 鷹郎 Tarou (鷹 hawk)
Az-Mi002 鷲郎 Jirou (鷲 eagle)
Az-So003 猿郎 Saburou (猿 monkey)
Az-So004 獅郎 Shirou (獅 lion)
Az-So005 齩郎 Gourou (齩 BITE apparently, obscure af though)
Az-So006 鹿郎 Rokurou (鹿 deer)
Az-So007 ？郎 Nanarou (really really unsure about the first kanji, might be 螽 grasshopper?)
Which are pretty normal Japanese man names if you switch out the kanji! Some common Japanese names (used to be more common than now) are based on birth order. One common sequence would be:
太郎 Tarou or 一郎 Ichirou (太 fat, in a good healthy way/ 一 one)
次郎 Jirou (次 next = second son)
三郎 Saburou (三 three) (also see: 藤堂 三郎太 Toudou Saburouta)
四郎 Shirou (四 four)
五郎 Gorou (五 five)
六郎 Rokurou (六 six)
七郎 Nanarou (七 seven)
(Not that it’s common to go past 3 or so, lol)
Which is all well and good but in the context of clones with matching code numbers it’s creeping me out.
They…they named him Shirou because he was the fourth one they made you guys
He has a number for a name
(EDIT: ALSO HE’S THE ONLY AZAZEL ONE WHO SURVIVED GOING BY THOSE LITTLE SLASHES IN THE BOXES NEXT TO THE NAMES)

Use your own stomach
自腹で じばらで
This is nothing to with eating and all to do with paying out of your own pocket. To say that you will pay with your own money you can use the phrases:
自腹で払う じばら で はらう
自腹で買う じばら で かう
or the slightly more colourful
自腹を切る じばら を きる
仕事でミスをしてしまい、上司から自腹を切れと言われてしまいました。 I made a mistake at work and my superior told me to pay for it myself.

Skin tone swatches, for use as a resource.
Spudfuzz on Deviantart made the original resource, which I modified to be a bit more realistic. She gave me permission to post this.
☛These swatches, like all art resources, should be used as a “jumping off point!” All colours are relative, and change with lighting conditions. As they are now, these swatches work best for adoptables, character lineups, and other art where local colour is important. ☚

I had a friend who had a wallet made from a Stayfree extra long wrapper and she took it travelling in Asia and a guy picked her pocket and he dropped it and screamed when he thought he had a pad in his hand.

気 Expressions
気 (き/ki) is a word that means “spirit” or “mood,” but it is used in many different expressions. Here are some of the expressions:
気に入り (ki ni iri) = favorite
気に入る (ki ni iru) = to be pleased with
気にする (ki ni suru) = to mind, worry, care about
気にするな！(ki ni suru na) = Don’t worry about it!
気に掛ける (ki ni kakeru) = to way on one’s mind, to trouble one’s heart
気になる (ki ni naru) = to worry, be anxious, uneasy
気に障る (ki ni sawaru) = to offend
気に座る (ki ni suwaru) = to hurt one’s feelings
気に留める (ki ni tomeru) = to heep in mind, give heed to, pay attention to
気を付ける (ki wo tsukeru) = to be careful, take care
気をつかう (ki wo tsukau) = to pay attention to another’s needs
気を悪くする (ki wo waruku suru) = to take offense at, feel hurt
気を許す (ki wo yurusu) = to let one’s guard down
気を散らす (ki wo chirasu) = to distract a person’s attention
気を取られる (ki wo torareru) = to have one’s attention caught, to be preoccupied with
気を静める (ki wo shizumeru) = to calm feelings, compose oneself
気を配る (ki wo kubaru) = to pay attentnion, be watchful
As you can see, these expressions that use 気 often have to do with one’s feelings or mood (and many of them are very similar). So, I’ll say to everyone today:
みんな、気を付けてください！
Everyone, take care!
