saiouma royal au where shuichi is the crown prince and kokichi is the court jester
i didn't actually get to it but in my notes maki and kaito are shuichi's personal guards, rantaro is his manservant, and kaede is their musician
i'm not sure how to continue this so if you enjoy it feel free to write this idea <3
“Oh, um, are you new here…?”
A gentle voice pulled Kokichi from his thoughts, and he automatically curled his face into a grin.
“Nishishi! Are you my savior? I was so lost, about to cry my eyes out from fright! Actually I still might, but that's a lie!”
“Please don't cry! If you meant it, I-I can't really tell…” He held a hand out, and Kokichi stood up on his own, pretending not to notice the awkward expression on the other's face.
“Well, if you can lead the way, uh, stable boy? I'm kinda in a hurry here, I can't believe you'd keep me from my important duties to the palace!" He shot a betrayed look, wailing into the arms of the sputtering boy who was trying and failing to calm him down.
"Anyways, I wasn't lying about being lost, but I need to be in the main area or something, just got hired.” Kokichi yawned, ignoring the incredibly confused expression of… “Hey, what's your name? I figured you would tell me after we had been intimate, with you comforting little old me, but you're just mean and rude!”
"My name? It's, uh, Shu- …mai?"
Kokichi stared blankly at the obvious lie, and latched onto his arm, cuddling closer. “My beloved Shumai, to repay the favor, I will deign to give my name! Kokichi Ouma, future owner of your heart!"
“Huh?”
He winked, enjoying the embarrassed flush on ‘Shumai.’
"...What were you hired as? So I uh, know where to bring you?”
“Oh, you know, esteemed royal advisor, at your service! That's a lie, of course, but it's cute that you believed me!”
“That's not helpful."
Kokichi pouted, then struck a pose.
"You really can't guess? I thought I've been hilarious so far, but tough crowd… Or maybe Shumai doesn't have a good sense of humor!"
"Going off of that, I'm assuming you're the new court jester? It would make sense that you're lost, if it's your first time here. But why are you hanging around the stables? It's clearly the wrong direction…” Shumai was deep in thought, and Kokichi carefully didn't look at his beloved horse, Dice. Either he was bad at his job, or he wasn't a stable hand.
“You're overthinking this! Didn't you know I'm a huge animal lover? That's why I'm so infatuated with you, Shumai! You have these sad and ugly bunny eyes that make it impossible to ignore you! That was a lie though, I would never say you have ugly features! Other than your weird hair thing, but what can you do." He shrugged casually, stealing a loose button from the tunic that looked expensive.
"Sad bunny eyes?” Shumai shook his head as if to clear his thoughts. “It won't stay down, my hair I mean. Usually I wear a hat but I forgot it…”
“Ooo, fancy! You have a hat?” Kokichi started holding the button to the sun, and Shumai just sighed when he realized.
“Let's just get going, is that alright Ouma-kun?"
"I've been waiting on you, beloved!”
His grin widened, hearing the soft groan from the other.
not to get overly poetic about it but...nalu as a dynamic is kinda crazy to me like. what if we were best friends? what if we were kinda silly and ridiculous and stupid about each other? what if we were connected across time and space for 400 years? what if we bumped into each other on a random tuesday? what if you changed my life? what if we had a dogged, unwavering and irrational faith in each other right from the get go? what if the greatest tragedy of my life was directly linked to the greatest tragedy of yours? what if, in a different timeline, i watched you and the rest of my friends die, and there was nothing i could do about it? what if i watched a future version of you die and i sobbed over your broken body? what if you were my last tether to humanity? what if i broke the laws of magic to save you? what if you came back to me in the place we first met? what if we were meant to be in every single universe? what if we still chose each other, every single time, anyway?
Sorry to come in here but since I love dub directions, as a hypothetical question, who was your dream cast for each? I just love thinking of all the possibilities and scenarios of HOPEFULLY which company can sponsor in the future the whole 200
omg hi anon! i'm going to mostly skip the characters that i liked the official dub voices of if that's alright, and list out the ones i haven't heard in the previews yet or don't remember ^^ also sorry if the explanations are lackluster, i've been looking up so many videos to see ranges of va's i'm writing down and spent hours trying to decide! let me know if you want more characters, and which ones in particular if you do
reborn: i actually don't mind veronica taylor's take on him too much, but something about it just sounds off to me idk, but i can't think of another va except for christina vee to pull off reborn
tsuna: erica mendez's nagisa shingestu from udg would be a great voice for tsuna
yamamoto: johnny yong bosch, i've seen people put him as mukuro which honestly i think would be great too, but takeshi's vibe fits more in my mind
gokudera: eric vale with his voice for sanji one piece, he sounds enough like a nerd and still be angry
ryohei: kaiji tang, there's not a specific voice to pinpoint but i believe he could do a very energetic but still slightly older sounding big brother
hibari: might be a strange pick but cody christian's cloud strife, kyoya has a very smooth voice and i can definitely imagine hearing an "i'll bite you to death"
mukuro: robbie daymond, his range with goro akechi alone (though that vocal performance is extremely impressive) is so fitting for mukuro
chrome: valeria rodriguez using her voice of sucrose from genshin OR suzie yeung's fuuka from persona 3 reload
bianchi: allegra clark, specifically her performance as boss from ai the somnium files
haru: monica rial, watch ouran's dub renge is literally her
dino: max mittelman with his voice as atsushi from bsd, with a hint of ryuji from persona 5
byakuran: daman mills' lyney from genshin but more sinister would fit marshmallow man so well
this was really fun to do actually, thank you for the ask!
i'm so sad. khr is finally getting a dub, but it's only three episodes and an unreleased ova, and i watched both clips they have out and i hate it
i'm happy it's getting attention but the fan casts i've seen would have been preferred, maybe i'm too attached to the japanese va's but the casting was perfect for them
tsuna's voice shouldn't be higher than haruhi from ouran, he doesn't sound like a guy at all, maybe i just need to hear him in hyper dying will mode? as is, i can't see the voice fitting when kokubun yukari did a great balancing act for him
it sucks because there's a bunch of va's listed that i know are good from other media i adore, but what i've heard so far is disappointing to me
i'm nitpicking and i know i'm nitpicking but this show means the world to me and all i see is praise for the dub and that's great and all but why
this is my favorite anime, the first time i actually continued the manga where the anime left off, i just wish they gave it more than three episodes and va's that don't feel like the directors cast themselves before anything else :((
also why did gokudera say decimo, giotto says decimo and gokudera says juudaime 😭
kyoko sounded adorable from the one line she had though, and i'm excited to hear chris hackney after knowing him from fe3h and 13sar
zeno robinson is cool too, but from what i heard in the sneak peeks idk i imagined yamamoto with a slightly deeper voice
i'm still buying it because the fact khr is getting content at all in 2024 is baffling to me and i'll support it either way
my girlfriend bought some homestuck mugs when they were back in high school and just went home for thanksgiving and found their parents have been using them regularly.
The really bewildering thing to me is that I remember when you needed to get up and pull a dictionary off the shelf, or visit a library to look up the facts you needed. Now people have all kinds of information literally at their fingertips and they can’t be bothered to use it.
Also, I love that, in the sign language one, it seems like the last image might’ve been a gif of “fuck you,” screenshot at the perfect time to let you know they were about to sign “fuck you”
I still remember the guy who got mad at me because I spoke about the cultural role of the Norse gods in my life and my culture and insisted that I should be “proud of my Christian heritage instead” and quite simply would not believe me when I told him I was from Scandinavia because “that doesn’t exist anymore.”
we couldn't decide if their aspect would be void (infinitely unassuming) or breath (arc around subverting identity and standing out) or something else. what do we think about Normal Person's classpect
