guys I'm crying I'm genuinely crying actual tears. I was gonna make a "surprise, bitch. I bet you thought you'd seen the last of me" joke but it's no time to jokE. TOO MUCH IS HAPPENING.
And as a lot of people saw coming this appears to be the final arc🥲 it's sad but I'm glad that the story seems to have been allowed to run its natural course and adachitoka got to tell the story they wanted to tell (and boy, what a story). Bittersweet, but let's all enjoy this final arc together! I'm terrified!! What on earth is going to happen!!! How do all the loose ends get tied up????
anyway we're here and I am back on my bullshit under the cut...! Be warned: This is a long one.
(I went off about Father and his children again please someone take the keyboard away from me)
-
Sakura is the tree of spring, huh?
as you may imagine I AM UNWELL
fast-moon dropped this one while I was on a date and when I saw that notification I had to stop, process it and explain to my date what was going on because that is how much despair it caused me. (And I hadn't even read the damn thing yet)
Why is it only now clicking for me that there is a CLEAR OBVIOUS MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIP between the names Yuki / Haru / Sakura.
Smarter people than I probably have and will speak more (and better) on everything going on with names and wordplay and Yato fighting and being nearly killed by Yuuki on the same hill where he buried his body and letters, but I will just say that it hurts and it made me cry ambiguous, confusing, sad-happy tears.
That entire section looked so pretty and Yato and Yuki looked so tiny and I'm just🥺
Yato with the GRAVE TALK. He is dangerously close to fucking around and finding out. (O como decimos en mi rancho, a dos de acabar muerto por jugarle al vergas)
SHIIGUN IS BACK BABY BOY IS HERE I LOVE HIM LOOK AT HIM GO
why are those dragon ayakashi so cute i want to keep the tiny one as a pet.
BISHA
SHE
WHEN SHE AT THE
WHEN SHE
Nyappy's Kuraha theory is gnawing at the edges of my sanity again it would seem (please will someone bully me into finishing that damn ficlet wip before the manga literally ends)
"The same as me not wanting to use Kazuma" Oh boy. Oh man. Oh honey you got a big storm coming.
OH NO NOT IMMEDIATELY
Kinuha beloved I missed her<3
Kitty cat. Kuraha prefers to be a lion than a human confirmed.
Ah yes, finally some good, old-fashioned, straightforward punches directly to the gut. (also that panel is just beautiful, man)
Oh don't come now with the "you'we impowtant two me" shut the FUCK up, old man. Boo fucking hoo your child you abused doesn't love you:( too bad so sad suck it up worstie<3
Ok now that that's out of the way. He makes a valid point- from his point of view, at least. From what we have seen of his backstory, Yato was created by a wish born of his deep feelings of injustice, of being left behind to die by the world and the gods ("You were my prayer"). TO him, Yato has always been a tool he had a right to, he deserved, to "cull the herd", to take back the power he believed was for him and taken away. Yato was Father's lifeline in a similar fashion as Father was his. He was his precious means of justice until he wasn't anymore. And he loved him in the same sick and twisted way he loves Mizuchi for very similar reasons. Again from what we know up until now, I fear it might be all he knows, love for someone as a means to an end; but I'm afraid we just won't know that until we learn more about his relationship to Kaya (vibrating with excitement As We Speak).
Oh no. Ohhh no. There is so much to unpack from Nora and Kazuma at the end oh NO.
Hey yeah remember that old theory I had that got debunked a bunch in the last couple of years where I talked about hafuri being immune to GGS and roped Kazuma into my examples? well lookie here guess we'll find out sooner rather than later won't we? :)
I mean, Kazu is like double-sealed though so it should be fine, right?
Right, guys?
Nora baby honey child PLEASE I'm so sorry you have been made to feel this way. It hurts my heart that it's all she knows as well. She only knows how to be a tool, and that's the entire meaning of her life- the only way she understands love, just like Father. Her father gave her a name and a purpose, and that is the most important thing to her; she will go to the ends of the earth and betray everyone and everything else because that's her father. He basically made her. But child, please, that's not it:( I want her to go back to Hiyori and learn what unconditional care and love is please:(( Get yourself an older sister like Yuki did I prommy there's more to existing than just being used and thrown away every time:(((
So yeah! i leave you with your monthly(!) reminder that trash dad is uh. huh. maybe leave father and son be for the time being actually they seem to have some issues to figure out.
Hi! I've never really done this before so apologies if I fumble a bit. I'm Lex (lexbiini on AO3) and I just graduated uni for creative writing. However, entry level employment opportunities in this field are... scarce (both for writing and copy editing). I am doing a ton of unpaid work rn and love every second of it, but unfortunately work experience doesn't really pay the bills by itself.
This is why I'm opening writing and editing/beta reading commissions!
SLOTS OPEN: Writing - 3 | Editing - 3
I will open six comm slots at a time for WRITING and EDITING
For writing:
Three slots at a time
One-shots only
$5 / 100 words
I'll write for any fandoms I've written for before (check my AO3 or my writing blog), as well as The Magnus Archives/Protocol, Good Omens, Heartstopper, all TAZ campaigns, Red Valley, Steven Universe, The Owl House, or mostly any other fandom you've seen me be insane about on this blog before
I am also willing to ghostwrite (being very loose with the term)/write short(...ish) pieces about your OCs! If you have the time and energy to come infodump at me about the blorbos from your brain, I am willing to listen and write about them!
I'll write most things (fluff, angst, character death, hurt/comfort, AU), but hard don'ts are NSFW, adult/minor or incest ships and excessive gore. I also reserve the right to just say no if a particular commission makes me uncomfortable.
Please DM me to reserve a slot and discuss your commission!
For editing and beta reading:
Three slots at a time
$2 / page (approx. 400 words counting with Times New Roman 12pt 1.5 space bc yes I am That Guy)
After 2,000 words $1 / page (So $10 for the first 2k and $1/page after that)
For editing and beta reading, fandom is less restrictive. Given, the less I know a fandom, the less characterization/story comments I can provide, but I will basically copy edit anything for spelling, grammar, syntax, story structure and formatting (I have a lot of fiction and nonfiction workshop experience!)
Again, please DM me to reserve a slot!
Payment through Ko-fi (and if you just wanna leave a little tip for the stuff i make you can also do that there<3)
If you have any further questions about comms, feel free to dm me!
25. Did you create any characters (in games, art, or writing) this year? Describe one
yay yippee im so glad u asked >:3
I made. So many guys this year. mostly little ones for uni assignments but also I made at least three that are near and dear to my heart so I'd like to introduce you to a girl who doesn't really have a name (because her story was written in first person and had no dialogue), but I toyed around with calling her Julia.
(don't look too hard at her hands)
She's a 12-13 year old girl who loves frogs and was very excited about theme parks in theory, but became VERY disappointed when she actually had to deal with loud people and long lines and the midday sun while waiting for the flume ride (and with how slow most of the actual ride ended up being). She is not scared of the dark but has a projector night light that makes a bunch of pond fish and frogs swim around her room. She would rather wear rain boots than any other footware in any situation (socks bad unless they have some wiggle room) and has a big chew necklace she doesn't love fashion-wise, but can't argue with the practicality of having it Right There when there's. The Horrors (aforementioned people and sweat and lines and being forced to wear sneakers).
I was obsessed with her for like two weeks and I still love her dearly<3
