Master Post 📌

The one stop guide to Sync’s blog

So hello hello one and all to my sideblog. This exists mostly for me to ramble about my writing at AO3. I dabble mostly in horny reader inserts, but do have a few OC/canon ships I occasionally make mention of, all dolloped on top of shitposts and miscellaneous headcanon posts. Though I’ve played all the Yakuza games to date, my main writing focuses will proooobably be on Zhao Yakuza Like A Dragon and Higashi Judgment because apparently I go wild for men with slicked back hair and sunglasses???

I don’t typically take requests, especially when my current WIP list is - no joke - a mile long, but my inbox is always open for character discussion/minor headcanons and anything Yakuza related! For additional clarification, minor headcanons consist of things like “I think X character likes to eat so-and-so” or “X character sounds like they like this particular thing”. I’m unfortunately not able to provide blanket HCs like other imagine blogs for a whole cast. This post is a perfect example of what I mean by minor headcanon discussion.

✔ Reblogs span entire series. Characters and games will be tagged. ✔ Asks and submissions are open ❌ Requests are currently closed (and may remain so indefinitely) ❌ No incest/pedophilia ❌ MINORS DNI

Replies to comments will come from my main blog @gamblingdancer

#murmurings #pinned post #this is basically a direct copypaste from my other blog #ya know.. until I figure out exactly what it is I want to do with this one #and/or whether I WILL indeed devote time to writing for my boyfriends

the kaito files came out, so I finally played judgment. and can I say, I am (obviously) simping for Kaito but higashi I was surprised by. Damn near immediately I was like: oh no hes best boy i love him.

how are you like one of 3 people who writes for higashi? how is he not more popular???

Helloooo it's good to see a familiar name again, I hope you've been well. 💖🙏 Omg though I.. I forgot about the Kaito files!!!!! I need to rectify this immediately and go check it out..

BUT YES HIGASHI GOOD. I cannot believe how much character they packed into his appearances throughout the first game. And Lost Judgment gives us a little more insight to how much of a dweeb he actually is, I adore him so much. 🥺 Best boi will do anything for his aniki. I do think his popularity has definitely increased over time, since thanks to LaD/Y7, the series has defs gained traction overall—I definitely noticed a major increase in activity on my general Higashi gifs/posts—but the fact not many are writing for him eludes me as well.

LIKE THERE IS A PERFECTLY GOOD TSUNDERE YAKUZA RIGHT THERE??? HELLO???

Ok, so if someone didn't play LJ yet and doesn't want any minor spoilers concerning characters that appear in the game it's better to skip this one. Anyway, after the boys meet with Kuwana in the chinese restaurant we see OUR BOY! And the fun thing is that when you return to the restaurant, you can see that it's name is YouTian Chinese Restaurant (佑天飯店). You Tian is written with the same kanjis that make Zhao's name, just in reverse (his name i TianYou (天佑) )! Does that mean it's his new restaurant? I guess we have to wait for Y8 to find out!

WAIT SERIOUSLY? I had no clue about this aaaaaaaaaaa

Oh my god our boy did it?? Our boy finally gets to pursue his dreams?? 😭😭 That's so adorable omfg, I'm so happy for him. His own restaurant omg 🥺🥺 Like it didn't even really occur to me why he would have been there when I saw him in LJ because I might just have been yelling too much when I saw him, but that makes so much sense in hindsight.

Aaaaa I hope we get more deets, come on Y8 😭😭

Thank you so much for sharing this omg. 💖

Hi Sync! I hope you're well. I was wondering if you've played Lost Judgment already, because if you did, I found a really fun thing I'd love to tell you about! I don't want to spoil anything for you tho,that's why I wanted to check

Helloooo! I've been ok, got a bit sick over the new year, but just because it's summer down here, and we've had hot days and cold nights, haha.

But yeeee I have! And I'd love to hear about this fun thing. 👀

#ask sync #answer: alexis4x41 #thank you for thinking of me 🥺🙏✨

Just wanted to say I really like your Judgment fics. Especially the “The Art of War” one you did. Do you think the reader could last the 19 hours with Higashi or did they tap out? Not requesting, just was curious to hear what you think.

Aww thank you nonnie! 💖 It was really fun to write, even if it took me months to get out.

I like to think reader eventually had to tap out, but Higashi is a man of his word, and come hell or high water, he was going to feast on them down to the last minute. A victory as decisive as that one doesn't come often for him because I like to HC him as a little bit subby out of preference for a place he can just unwind and relax so to speak? So he has to take what he can get from reader when she let's him have it. 👁️👁️

Everybody in the Y7 gang has accidentally called Saeko "mum" at least once.

Soon. Very soon. LIKE REALLY VERY SOON IN A MOMENT SOON.

LIKE AS SOON AS I GET HOME FROM WORK TODAY SOON

I'm still lowkey chafed that Australia, among other regions, were HELLA NEGLECTED wrt preordering Lost Judgment on PS4/5, as in, there was no statement on why it straight up was not on the PS store whatsoever until like 5 hours before the 21st. And they didn't fix it until sometime yesterday...

But still.

VERY SOON.

Sync-senpai, I know your love for Higashi is really strong. I was wondering if you are into the Final Fantasy franchise, Final Fantasy XV to be specific. One of the main characters of the game is called Ignis and if you check him out, you'll see he and Higashi could almost be twins (I especially mean Ignis with his hair up, when his hair is down the resemblance isn't that striking)!

Aww nonnie, I get the sentiment, but you can bump the "senpai" bit off my name if that's ok by you. That sort of... "elevation" makes me a bit uncomfortable. 😓 I'm just a Some Person on the internet, same as anyone else. 🙏

But YEAH. I HAVEN'T ACTUALLY PLAYED FFXV (though a friend lent the game to me, it's that getting into a new game/fandom is feels like a big commitment these days 😔), but I definitely know about Ignis 👀 he's defs a CUTIE and defs has a really similar aesthetic. I just don't know much about him other than really surface level knowledge I pick up through the odd gif set now and then.

Honestly the whole ffxv squad is cute as heck especially... Gladios? The one with the tattoos. 👀👀 That's the man I keep eyeballing whenever I see them on my dash.

okay lmao im gonna live and die on the yakuza 7 is great hill and the combat doesn't spoil the game whatsoever, like, maybe im biased bc i enjoy a lot of turnbased combat, but yakuza 7 had something that other yakuza games dont have which is difficulty spikes which sounds weird to praise it for but in the beat em up yakuza games there is literally no reason to fight the random thugs around town they are just an annoyance. the game doesn't require u to grind at all and most of the mid to late game is easy once you've got a bunch of skills (i guess this is a little better in ykz 4 and 5 with the multiple protags having u set back in difficulty every few hours but its still not a perfect system). like u can bullshit your way through fights once ichiban gets the orbital laser, but i still found a lot of the mid to late game fights hard in yakuza 7 which isnt something i can say for the other games. not to mention yakuza 7 to implement turnbased gameplay into a realistic setting while also keeping some fun goofy elements, and made it so you have to be aware of the environment your in, and with the perfect guard system you have to pay attention to the enemies actions as well.... in addition to all this IT HAD A GREAT STORY.... ONE OF THE BEST..... WITH GREAT CHARACTERS.... im not saying everyone has to like the change in combat but i am sick of people saying its objectively bad or worse bc its not. yes its different but its not worse.
