Wow, I was super impressed by your WIP list!

Could you please tell us more about the amortentia mixup fic and also about the farmer's market florist AU? 💙

hello peony! ofc i can tell you more 💜

so they're both deeply only in the scrappy notes stage, but just revisiting them makes me excited to eventually get back to them. the florist au is predicated on the victorian language of flowers, which is something i've always wanted to learn about. the basic premise is that draco sells bouquets at the local farmer's market (maybe after turning the manor grounds into a floral farm i don't know) and harry keeps buying them because part of his new lease on life is buying himself flowers that make him happy. draco is using the flowers to send *very* romantic messages, confident that harry has no idea what draco's saying. harry's clueless. ron and hermione are not.

the amortentia mix up is just a little whacky concept that lets me play with some comedy and some teenage drama that's not about saving the world. slughorn was truly an instigator when he decided a bunch of 16 year olds needed access to a powerful love potion, and i cannot not think about the nightmare that caused for hogwarts. everyone knows too much about everyone else now. the weaselys all use the same shampoo (and so does harry sometimes) so who knows which one of them anyone is actually into. why does pansy's amortentia smell like both ron and hermione? how does millie know what cho's shampoo smells like anyway? no one is doing their homework and mcgonagall has given up on handing out detentions. it'll end up resolved eventually, right? i just want the chance to write teens yelling at one another over relationship drama. it makes me think of a disney channel original and it makes me laugh.

thanks for asking!!!!

Hi. I just find out the touken week *hides ashame in the back. Can I still participate since we are nearly endweek or I have to wait until the next announcement?

Hi! sorry you missed it! the next Touken week may not be until next year. Us mods are not actively reblogging from the tag but if you still wanted to participate we won’t say no to more Touken content ;)

[coromoor]

We had a 366-day calendar of TG. How many illustration become real in the plot? I hope you can understand my ask @@

quite a few!

the Quinx writing their ambitions for the year, especially Mutsuki’s “change” which .. obviously he went through quite a change [x]

Ui throwing away the traditional porridge that wards off bad vibes and now look what happened. He’s got all the bad vibes [x]

Furuta’s birthday illustration with the Sun and the Crayfish from the Moon tarot card indicating his large role in this stage of the Fool’s journey [x]

Yamori received a “God” neck tie for his birthday which Shikorae (Rio) was wearing later in the series [x]

Probably the biggest “spoiler” page, Takizawa and Tatara depicted on Betrayal Day and Takizawa soon being the one to kill Tatara on Rushima Island [x]

Touka depicted as a moth (although this wasn’t the first time she was shown with a moth/butterfly) and then the moth/butterfly showing up when Eto was on TV and in chapter 125, etc. [x]

Naki and Miza on Lover’s Day and later we found out Miza had romantic feelings for Naki *sobs* [x]

Arima and Kaneki with the Little Prince quotes, which were in the calendar on the day the chapter that Arima died was released [x] [x]

Saiko’s manga with Hulk Urie foreshadowing that he’d frame out [x]

Gasmask Kaneki which is happening in recent chapters (although that’s probably just cause gas masks look cool rather than foreshadowing) [x]

Matsuri scribbling out his wife’s face on their wedding photo. Later we found out that it was an arranged marriage and Matsuri is gay [x]

Mountain Day with Hide on a literal cliffhanger which would continue for the rest of the year and then some [x]

Tatara on Clean Coal Day when he can literally turn into a kakuja furnace and breathe fire (I’m still mad we missed that…. his name is furnace. he wears clothes with flame patterns on them. the fuq) [x]

Eto watering plants on Noro’s head when it’s been hinted that she extended his “life” by implanting her kagune [x]

Yoshitoki saying to Tsuneyoshi “live long” … but he died [x]

Hairu’s birthday illustration with a crack in the wall behind her that looks like an Ukaku wing and the possibility that this new Owl is Hairu (the one wing could also simply be foreshadowing that she was a half ghoul as a child from the Sunlit Garden) [x]

Hasn’t been confirmed yet but if the Witch’s Servant theory from the play is true, Eto was a Witch on a broomstick for Halloween [x]

Arima on anti-ageing day when we know he was actually ageing prematurely ISHIDA HOW RUDE [x]

Mutsuki birthday illustration with the 12 (The Hanged Man tarot card) written in blood foreshadowing how he would go on a self destructive path similar to Kaneki after receiving the Hanged Man in TG [x]

Also later the palindrome “Mutsuki in pain, piling up the corpses” sums up his recent actions [x]

Kijima’s birthday where the letters highlighted in red spell out “Furuta is a ghoul agent” giving a giant hint at him being a half ghoul Washuu aligned with the Clowns [x]

Not really an explicit hint but it’s something that made me suspicious seeing it. Touka on Christmas Day which is a holiday for couples in Japan. Since she’s the love interest, looking back it seems only logical [x]

There was also a NishiKimi wedding page but of course we won’t know if that’s foreshadowing for some time yet [x]

Yomo calling Touka his niece [x]

I think those are the main “foreshadowing” pages but among the calendar are a heap of references to literature or flower meanings or references to past events. I adore Ishida for giving us the calendar, it was amazing.

[coromoor]

the flower/sun like tattoo in Uta's chest looks like nucleus in page 14. both has 8 rays/petals

heh that’s really cool

especially because the center has a two headed snake

and another of Uta’s tattoo’s has a similar motif, with a face in the centre of 2 snakes with a cross on it’s head that matches Rize’s appearance as pointed out here [x] by @super-peace-fufu-boy​   

Uta’s tattoos really do tell the story of the entire series

[coromoor]

im a little confused, was naki brought back the same way eto was, or did he really only need a few days' rest after the oggai raid?

nah it seems that we really were meant to take Miza saying “let him sleep” at face value!

I’m not sure that Eto was ever dead either. V clearly picked her up in Cochlea and have been keeping her since. They have Nico who can heal so its possible he kept her going when she was meant to die

When Amon attacked Donato, Owl lost power telling us it was Donato remote controlling Eto via the Cross in her neck

after Donato died, the Cross melted away and she regenerated

So rather than remote controlling her entire body like Koma and Irimi, they had cut off her head to remove her own conscious thought. In it’s place was the kagune cross doing the “thinking” for Owl via Donato and preventing her regenerating. Once that was gone “POP”. If Eto were truly dead there wouldn’t have been a need to remove her head ya know?

So yeah, I think there are a few distinctions between whats happening with these characters being “””resurrected”” 

[coromoor]

Ishida described kaneki as a common-looking guy, how the hell did he draw it on every panel so handsome he was the sexiest manga guy

IKR ISHIDA PLZ

I remember when the chapter 1 redraw came out that JP fandom started calling him Bishou-Kaneki (as in bishounen)

I mean

how could Hide say that Rize was out of this cutie’s league, it just doesn’t add up Ishida

[coromoor]

The "Yo" and "I love her" afterglow scene is great too ! Touka isn't wearing her usual white shirt here, someone was a bit too eager after the biting... 👀

all she had to do was say “yo” with that cute blush to have Kaneki tearing up with how much he loves her and blurting out about their secret wedding, I want to bottle that smile

just look at that, he’s even got the lip wobbles going on
