#i need to catch up...

To any ORV fans out there, I can't help but think of Damian in the scenarios like he would be intensely OP. But also think of the sponsorship possibilities, specifically because of his ability to see ghosts.

Which once again leads to adoption. Yes, I'm thinking of Hades and Persephone snatching the kid because he's incredibly skilled, cute and can see ghosts. He fits in perfectly.

Hello! I was rereading Noragami and I don't have the best grasp on physical relationships so I was wondering, did Father and Nora assault Hiyori and Yukine? They never asked to kiss them and just went for it and it was even for bad reasons. Hiyori and Yukine are even in conflict after it. (I'm not saying this to bash Yukinora, I actually do like them, I just don't have the best grasp of consent in situations like this). I've seen people say when someone goes in for a kiss without asking in any way (I believe there is a Hitch rule?) That it can be classified as one bc people can react by simply freezing (and in Hiyori's case, she probably was socialized to not push boys off so easily). I do hope this isn't triggering though and if it is then I am sorry and you don't have to answer it.

Ugh okay. My answer is that I think it shouldn't be thought of in black and white and that people are overthinking it. Like... in real life, should you go up to someone randomly and kiss them? No no nope no way. In fiction? It is a trope in romance stories, and is subject to fair criticism but is not necessarily intended to be a 1=1 representation of our understandings of actions in a vacuum. tl;dr it's not coded or framed as a traumatizing assault, particularly not Yukinora's, but there are uncomfortable aspects to both (though far more so in Father/Hiyori's case, because Father isn't her love interest).

That said, for Father it does show his lack of boundaries and respect for other people's autonomy (he basically sees Yato and Nora as manifestations of himself, and because Yato likes Hiyori, he sees her as being something for him to use). For Nora, it's Father working through her to manipulate Yukine. At the same time, I think it's pretty obvious that Yukine and Nora do care about each other, so... again, it shows how Father will try to exploit something pure and sweet like puppy love between two kids and try to use it to benefit him, even if it's not assault and isn't something that both Yukine and Nora minded.

Hi there! I've recently discovered your blog and have been creeping on your op content (I'm on page 699 of your blog lol). I'm wondering whether you're caught up to the manga chapters?

Hey way to go, I’m glad you’ve found something to enjoy!

Also... Hm. I’m. Uh.

I stopped reading when Luffy stopped showing up in the manga w/ the flashback and all. Been meaning to catch up now that he’s back again :’D I’m pretty much spoilered enough that I know what’s up anyway, if you wanted to talk about it!
