"Don't go." kagakuro

It’s something that settles in your bones as a third year, a kind of tension that slowly materializes with the word “last.” The last summer. The last Interhigh. The last year we’ll play as a team.

Somehow, it didn’t hurt as much with Teikou. Because by then at Teikou he wanted it to end.

Now, Seirin squeezes at his chest with an icy grip, soon to melt into something slippery, dropping him.

Kuroko starts, “Kagami-kun–”

“Kuroko.”

Kuroko looks up. Kagami is scowling, like he’s seen Hanamiya’s face on Kuroko’s uniform and wishes he could punch it off without killing Kuroko in the process. 

“Don’t…" Kagami swallows. “Don’t go.”

Kuroko’s heart jumps.

“Um… What do you mean, Kagami-kun? I can’t be at school all afternoon. Nigou will get hungry.”

Kagami clenches a fist and makes a rumbling sound like a sob, erupting from the back of his throat. Somehow, it sets Kuroko’s heart at ease–a familiar noise, and not the last time he’ll hear it, surely. “You know what I mean, idiot.”

Kuroko tilts his head, allowing the corner of his mouth to curve up. “No, you’ll have to clarify. Even my Japanese isn’t at such a high level to understand you right now.”

“Oh my god,” says Kagami in English, and Kuroko’s surprised, finds himself laughing. “You little shit, I’m trying to be emotional and junk here, will you just let me get to the point?”

“If Kagami-kun says anything sentimental about being a third year, I’ll deck him,” Kuroko says.

(Not if Kagami gets him first).

“God. What were you gonna say, anyway?”

Kuroko frowns, which must look strange when he feels so chipper. “Sorry. I forgot.”

"I'm pregnant and it's yours." aokuro >:9

“Aomine-kun,” Kuroko says, the same way he’d say the sky is blue or Aomine owes him three milkshakes, “I’m pregnant.”

Aomine stares. It’s gotten harder to tell when Kuroko is kidding since middle school. 

“No,” he says, “you’re not.”

“It’s yours,” Kuroko continues, and beckons for Aomine’s hand. Dimly, Aomine lets him guide his palm to Kuroko’s stomach. The bump is vaguely puppy shaped.

“What the hell, Tetsu,” Aomine tries, “we’re not even dating.” Uh, he thinks. They never really broke up. Or got together. They were just, a thing, kind of. Yeah.

“Please don’t reject me, Aomine-kun. I could miscarry from the emotional distress.”

Kuroko’s ambiguity is unnerving.

“Tetsu,” Aomine says, firmly, as if to remind himself more than Kuroko, “you can’t get pregnant from overdue fist bumps.”

As if in agreement, Kuroko’s stomach barks.

Kuroko is unphased. “If Aomine-kun is going to be so unsupportive, I will simply have to raise our child as a single mother.”

“…Okay.”

“Okay.”

Kuroko nods, turns, and walks away.

Aomine scratches his head. Pulls out his phone and dials without looking. “Satsuki. Am I forgetting something.”

“Dai-chan? What?”

“Like an anniversary or something? Do I owe someone money. What the hell.”

We were inspired by the telephone game in this post here and decided to do one of our own! Please click on the pictures for number order and who drew it =D (there are also so many cute details to see in fullview too)

Artists who participated, in order: fimyuan, shiningdraw, chaosdraw, cyuuto, adreus, magileine, hjhikari, artricahearts, and aatsuyactic~ Thank you everyone, this turned out so cool!!

Zexal/FE crossover talk sprite edits for cyuuto‘s au swap prompt! I threw together some blinking/talking sample animations for all of them too, but they looked really strange to me all bunched up next to each other on tumblr, so I uploaded those to imgur here.

design/class/story role talk under the cut:

YUMA Lord / Great Lord

LORD DO I HATE YUMA’S HAIR I’m sorry it doesn’t even make sense I did my best. also, I tried to find a pinker red for his eyes, but none of them quite fit, so in the end I just went with red… his clothes were surprisingly easy to find fitting colors for, though.

The “game” storyline begins with prince Yuma and Akari fleeing from the palace during an invasion by an enemy kingdom. When he hears that there’s a staff that has the power to resurrect the dead, his initial goal is to use it on his parents, but once they have the Aum staff it turns out it can only be used once before it breaks… I might have been a bit mean to him in this story whoops. Since his own problems are a bit unsolvable he tends to distract himself with other people’s lol

AKARI Paladin

the escort pre-promote. I forgot what color Akari’s clothes were in canon, I was kind of shocked her hood was orange when I looked it up. I was pretty dubious making orange armor, but I think it came out well??

Yuma and Akari call each other brother and sister, but they’re actually cousins. when Akari’s parents died, Yuma’s took her in and raised her, but she has no claim on the royal bloodline. (this was the only explanation I could think of for why Akari wouldn’t be the main leader in the story lol.) because of that, a bit, Akari is extremely devoted to the late king and queen, and cares deeply for Yuma. she scolds him less than in canon, since he ranks her, but the desire is still there.

KOTORI Dancer

I feel bad that her outfit came out so plain, but she is originally a maid! since almost everyone else here is a royal, it makes her look plainer in comparison, lol. I wanted to make Kotori a dancer because it seemed most fitting to her narrative role in canon to me (something like, “I’m supporting you, so stand up and try again!” it’s different from healing, I think). her style is a bit based on ballet.

Kotori worked at the palace but didn’t live there, so she was there during the invasion, but not in the building. she’s not with Akari and Yuma during their initial escape, but catches up to them shortly after. she and Yuma grew up together and are very close, but she’s surprisingly private about some things - he didn’t know she could dance, for example, until after they set out on their journey. so it turns out that while she knows him perfectly well, he still has a lot to learn about her. she accidentally ended up with some ties to the Arclight family, although they hadn’t known each other previously.

pretending further that this is a real game, Kotori and Akari probably should be the kind of characters who “retreat” instead of being killed, but not because of any plot importance, really, just because Yuma is so fragile emotionally…

ASTRAL Anima Mage / Sage

I sketched out something like preliminary designs for Astral and 96 earlier, but in the end I had to cut a fair amount of the jewelry tragically. pixels are unforgiving to small details!! Astral being an anima mage was one of the first things I decided about this au, since it’s the most evenhanded and versatile magic. on the other hand, although Black Mist is probably a boy, I’m not sure about this version of Astral’s gender… luckily it has no real bearing on their character design

the older twin and the heir to a country allied to Yuma’s. (Eliphas is the current king.) they don’t actually want the throne, but they also don’t want 96 to have the throne lol. since the royal family is traditionally aligned with light/healing magic, picking up anima magic instead was actually kind of a passive aggressive show of defiance. but in things like manner and bearing, Astral is by far the better behaved twin. they learn light and healing on promotion, like a Sacred Stones sage.

BLACK MIST (who needs a rename…) Cleric / Sage

I made Kotori a dancer instead of a healer because I thought it was more fitting but then I made 96 a healer because I thought it was funny, so maybe I don’t have good reasons for anything at all!! Astral’s and 96′s color schemes in this are so weird. originally I just made Black Mist an easy recruit because I didn’t want to give him a plot significant antagonist position, but then he became a plot significant main character?! this isn’t what I meant to do at all

Black Mist is the younger twin but also the more ambitious, so he’s a bit bitter about his older sibling being such an unenthusiastic obstacle. he makes a lot of comments about murdering them and becoming first in line for the throne. they have kind of a bad relationship. Black Mist is really loud in saying things like WHO CARES IF I’M POLITE, IT’S NOT LIKE I’M EXPECTED TO INHERIT THE TITLE, but then he also pursues healing magic of all things to be in line with the skill set expected of the royal family, so it’s like… what are you trying to prove... do you even know?? he tries very hard, although he’s a shit.

the twins are necessary to the plot, but in a world of ruthless practicality it would be technically possible to get through the game with only one alive at the end. probably they both would “retreat” though.
