And to all the Suo-will-die truthers, you're wrong. Your theories make a lot of sense, and there's crazy amount of thought put into them, and they're totally believable, but you're wrong. I can't give you a reason, but you are. Wrong. Unfortunately for you, my source is that I said no.
I need you all to understand that Suo simply does not have my permission to die. My boy is not dying. I want him to go through hell, but I need him to come back. Hell and back.
you know what. you're right. sonia in cute outfit

Wind Breaker: 1st-3rd Year Swap (preservering plum) AU
-so the swap is just the first years and 3rd years are the swapped. Umemiya, Hiragi, Momose, Mizuki and Tsubaki are all in the same class (maybe 1-1)
-the 2nd years aren't at Furin yet (i plan to fill that gap with mere OCs XD)
This AU is obviously Umemiya-centered and bare with my AU crafting because this is the first one I made for Wind Breaker, I think.
Umemiya has lived a very rough life, past around orphanages because of how unwilling he was to cooperate. Being labeled as hopeless and a lost cause because of his trauma, PTSD and depression slowly deteriorating the bright boy he used to be
he is then finally given a break when he arrives at Furinen Orphanage at 13 years of age but the damage of being called mindless (they were the ones that drilled into him that all his decisions lead to despair, if not for himself then to others), hopeless (his meds not working *cuz they're not even proper anti-depressants in the first place), and broken.
Umemiya spends 2 years at the orphanage without feeling any emotions, like he shut and sealed them to keep the hurt at bay. Not properly processing it like his canon counterpart did. the day he enrolls at Furin arrives. Yuki-sensei promising, bento placed in Umemiya's hand that they'll never turn away from a boy in need like him.
when he arrived at the classroom 1-1, he was bombarded immediately. His white hair that faded to black- was it natural? *Umemiya would just nod hesitantly*. They all gave off such distinct feelings that Umemiya was able to grasp their names and personalities. (Umemiya had developed face blindness/Prosopagnosia)
Hiragi reminded him of sharks, scary but technically friendly. Tsubakino was the warmth of a strong mamabear. Momose was short but he often showed off drawings to Umemiya and Mizuki catalogued almost everything, even the latest season of Super Sentai.
What truly surprised him was that how well put-together a delinquent school building was. There was a designated wall for grafitti that gets painted over twice a month for the artistic bunch of Bofurin so the entire place isnt covered with paint but the proud insignia of Bofurin was still hung at the front top, the classrooms are inspected every year for chalkboard that needed fixing or windows that needed replacing, etc. All the boys must help clean the school at the end of friday classes. They even check your medical history to adjust your patrol routes and 'roles', the Representative was particular about it.
speaking of the leader, Sakura-senpai was quite the enigma. His speech merely consisted of the Oath in that one sign in Makochi town, "Remember, those who cause pain, who bring destruction, who holds evil in their hearts will be purged!" and Umemiya felt genuine chills down his spine for the first time in his life when his entire class spoke in unison "BY BOFURIN WITHOUT EXCEPTION!"
Through out the first day, of course their was an introduction seminar, mostly led by Kiryu-senpai and Nirei-senpai, two of the four Heavenly Kings.
and I lost it. I dunno what else to put

Windbreaker thoughts and ideas from my discord:
Dancing AU:
Sakura’s favorite dance style is capoeira with breakdancing flares. He’s been rejected from dance schools and classes for his borderline violent dancing, but Furin is different. He finally has the space to learn other dance styles while also getting to meet other people who like dancing the way he does.
DeAged Sakura:
Sakura takes a nap in an empty classroom and when everyone finds him, he’s a child. He will never live this down, but his classmates are having the time of their lives doting on him without physical repercussion. Also Shishitoren makes him model their jacket and Togame realizes that he would literally die for child Sakura.
Furin Childhood AU:
Set ~10 years before canon and everyone is in grade school (but pasts are not canon compliant bc I’m only on the anime rn). Sakura transfers into Furin elementary school. There are shenanigans, Sakura being accepted, and everyone excitedly throwing hands with one another.
5+1:
5 times Suo flustered Sakura and 1 time Sakura flustered Suo
Gamer IRL:
Sakura gets the ability to see stats like charisma and perception (low as hell) (strength is maxed out for his level… go figure) and, since he’s chronically offline, doesn’t understand any of it. He asks Nirei the questions, wonders why he keeps getting notifications for romance flags, and Nirei explains that in otome games, they take you to the main goal with each character. Sakura’s like “my goal is to fight people, so I guess this’ll make them more likely to fight me?” And things go from there
i’m watching wind breaker rn and jesus christ can nirei like stay put why does he actively heads to where fights is at knowing damn well he can’t defend himself very well i lowk got pissed off
first weekly bird report of 2026!! it's been a while since i've done one so if ur new here i'm an avid birdwatcher who goes on weekly hikes/walks and posts abt the birds i see because ppl seem to enjoy it. here's today's report
went to my favorite trail in the city and had a wonderful walk. started by seeing two bald eagles on my drive over, then once i stepped out by the river i saw a belted kingfisher and two common mergansers
further down the river i saw a mixed flock of barn and tree swallows darting around the water. caught sight of a few song sparrows in the brush, saw a juvenile bald eagle take off from some rocks, spotted a spotted sandpiper, then the rest was mostly standard fare (red-winged blackbirds, black-capped chickadees, american goldfinches)
UNTIL !
i was at an elevated outcrop, peering over the river, didn't see anything, turned around and walked like 20 feet away when i heard it. a loon
i ran back and saw it right away, my first loon!!! it was so pretty and hearing its call really is like. haunting. i tried to get a good photo but i ran into this fucker like 3 times and each time right as i was about to take a photo it'd dive into the water for ages. ah well
i went back to that outcrop on my way back and saw my second lifer of the day, a canvasback, which is a type of duck!! they're rare this time of year as it's the tail end of duck migration season, so i felt super lucky to be able to see it
below are some trail photos and a few pics of some other animal friends i met along tha way !!
this little brown lumpy thing ^ i think is a mink or weasel of some kind. not super familiar w/ our local mustelid species but it was so cute!!
