And before you try to make this man a dilf, remember that’s he’s 28, an idiot, and a big brother figure if anything

Adding more older brother evidence

And with this panel, I rest my case

#manga panel

Thinking about Knight! Arkha who’s been in love with me since we were teenagers, but he’s never acted on his feelings because of his fealty to the crown.

I’ve turned down so many marriage proposal because I’m madly in love with him and my parents want us to be together despite the differences of our status

However, they don’t say anything because they’re waiting for Arkha to confess and he does, but only after he becomes a war hero and they ask his what he wants for his bravery.

He ask for my hand

Gachiakuta Tangent Pt II (find Pt I here) ( spoilers under the cut )

I’m still focusing on Corvus here, but more characters might come up

In my last post about Corvus, I stated that his tattoo could be his jinki (a conclusion that most, if not all, of the fandom has come to as well lol) . I also introduced the idea that it could be a permanent charm casted on him by one of the mayors of Canvas Town since we saw that Remlin was able to transform the city’s generational jinki at will — one of those changes being a tattoo machine

As we progress further into this arc, I’m definitely leaning into the idea that his tattoo is solely his jinki and not a casted charm.

The reason being?

Earlier on in the story, when Arkha is first introduced we’re able to see that the eye is sentient. When we reach Chapter 116, Corvus is having an in depth conversation with Rudo about the true mission of the Cleaners being to rid the world of trash beast to uncover the truths of their world. As their conversation progresses Corvus admits that he’s is using others to accomplish his goals and while Rudo acknowledges this fact as well, he states that “this man seems like he’s covered in mud, but is very sincere” which leads Rudo to say that he’s no longer Rudo the Spherite, but Rudo the Cleaner and that if giving Corvus what he wants gets him what he wants he’ll keep fight with them and that Arkha won’t regret it.

Arkha’s eye shows that he’s overwhelmed with emotion to the point of tears because someone who doesn’t know who he is or what he’s done has shown him the ultimate kindness and sincerity

So maybe it’s not a jinki that used as a defensive weapon (obviously), but as a form of protection (through discernment?). Also like I said in my first tangent it’s an eye in the back of his head which is literally a statement that’s used to describe “being very observant and aware of everything happening around you, even when you can't physically see it” (also I’m thinking that maybe there are other eyes painted that he can see through? Or maybe he can see through another person’s eyes?)

Moving on,

I’m curious to know what exactly happens when Arkha “processes his thoughts”

If we go back to chapter 115, it opens up with Semiu talking to Tamsy (my eye just started twitching) and Delmon about a new job request that had made its way to her desk

As they’re talking Semiu stops and says “oh you finally decided to leave your room” directed towards, what looks to be (in my opinion), a tired looking Arkha

She goes on to say that it took him four days to leave his room this time to which he responds with “sometimes I need alone time to process my thoughts” which now has me curious as to what exactly is going on in his mind (also it opens a new can of worms that maybe his jinki allows him to collect vast amounts of information at one time)

I’m also curious about the relationship between Tamsy (eye twitch) and Arkha.

Does Arkha know that Tamsy is being deceitful? He seemed keenly aware that Tamsy had taken Amo’s boots out of his vault, but he worded it as “someone took the shoes out of my vault” while looking directly at Tamsy with eyes that said “I know you took them” but never decisively saying that it was Tamsy, until Tamsy himself says “I don’t appreciate your use of the word “took”

Also in the latest chapter, they have another stare off when Tamsy enters arkha’s office.

Also Arkha hates “feeling frustrated when you can’t remember something” and I’m wondering if Tamsy has somehow erased some of Arkha’s memories because we know he has the ability to. He’s done it with Amo, but then again maybe I’m shooting in the dark here

ALSO WHAT THE HELL DOES ARKHA KNOW ABOUT FOLLO’S NEW ABILITY AS A GIVER?!?!?!?

WHY DID HE LOOK SO FULL OF SHOCK AND THEN CONCERN/CONTEMPLATIVE?

LIKE LOVE, LIGHT OF MY LIFE SAY SOMETHING

My last thought is what going to happen at Doll Festival? And will I ever recover from it when it happens whatever it will be?

Gachiakuta tangent coming in

I’m so curious about Corvus.

We know so little about him and it’s driving me insane.

We know that he’s the boss of the cleaners (we also find out that he doesn’t even know why they call him that it just started one day and stuck), but was their formation his doing? Or was it already established and he just took over

Did he recruit Enjin? Or did Enjin find him and ask to become a cleaner? Also, we see that Enjin respects Arkah as a leader, but there has to be a reason why. Like sure Arkah is reliable, trustworthy, and charismatic, but anyone can be that and you not want to follow them.

Also, if the tattoo on the back of his head a spell he gained from a mayor in canvas town? It’s totally plausible because we saw that Remlin could turn the Pen into a tattoo machine. So another mayor could’ve done the same. Also, his tattoo moves. It’s literally an eye in the back of his head.

Also, I’m dying to know what his Jinki is because literally no hints have been given (if it’s his tattoo I’m going to scream because it would open the door or jinkis being more than physical objects)

Also, is Zodyl going to kill Corvus? Follow my thought train. Zodyl literally eats crows and if you look up what Corvus means/is it’s what they call the genus of birds like crows and raven (I could also be looking into this too deeply, but I love a good foreshadowing)

I just love him a lot

September Manga Rec

So for the month of September one manga recommendation I have (honestly the only manga rec) is, drum roll please 🥁. . .

Gachiakuta

This manga follows the story of a young boy named Rudo (Ludo is some translations) who collects trash illegally. He’s later framed for a crime he didn’t commit and is tossed out of Heaven into the Abyss where he must learn how to fight the creatures that reside there through the help of the janitors all in order to return home so he can clear his name

If you enjoy stories set in dystopian society that cover the harms of classism, includes some sprinkled humor, and well written characters then this is the story for you *winks like a car dealer in a commercial *. Also, if you enjoyed reading/watching Soul Eater or Fire Force you’re in luck because the mangaka of this story is the apprentice of Atsushi Okubo. Her name is Kei Urana and she’s amazing.

ok first impressions from you to arkha and arkha to you, interview style, ty

C : “Breathtaking”

It was the only word floating through my mind when I first saw him. He was this gorgeous, 6’5” man with these broad shoulders, and a body that was literally sculpted by the gods (yes I could tell through his suit). He also had this piercing gaze that made it seem like he knew everything about you without even have met you.

Then he spoke.

He had this voice like crushed velvet and he commanded the room with it. I couldn’t take my eyes off him for the rest of the time we were in that conference

A : “A goddess truly walks among mortals”

I had to pick my jaw up off the floor when I saw her. Of course me standing there slack-jawed got a laugh from my fellow colleagues, but I couldn’t help it.

I was captivated by her. The way she floated through the room. She had kindness radiating off her form and when she was asked to speak she held herself with such a confidence you believed everything she said as though she didn’t have the ability to be wrong

C : this is such high praise because I’m wrong 25% of the time . . . anyways continue

A : Also she was gorgeous. She said she was staring at me, but I was also staring at her. I think I asked everyone I could about her that night too, but I knew I had to know her

C : I slipped my number to his colleague and he called me the next day

cw : selfship coded, enjin gets himself hurt

The smell of antiseptic fills his nose. His steady heartbeat sounding from the monitor becomes a sort of lullaby keeping him teetering between wakefulness and sleep, but there’s a heaviness that keeps him anchored to his cot and the familiar scent of earl grey and lavender replace the harsh scent of medicinal herbs in that air

“What’s up bells”?

His throat feels raw as he finds his voice again and his lips are so dry he can feel them cracking with every syllable’s formation

You sniffle, looking up at him with tear filled eyes

“Don’t call me Bells, you almost died Enjin” your voice tappers off as you repeat yourself “you almost died”

Guilt fills him as he watches your tears spill over. You weren’t mad that he had taken a solo mission. You were scared, scared that another person you loved was almost taken from you

“Bells . . .”

You stop him, placing a cup of water against his dry lips for him to drink. He greedily gulps it down before licking his lips to offer himself some comfort

“Come here”

You don’t hesitate tossing yourself into his chest and nuzzling your head into his neck

“I’ll always come back for you. That’s a promise so please stop crying baby. Please.”

Another sniffle, but he feels your shoulders start to calm as you look up at him. He cups your cheek and brings your lips to his.

“I’m okay. I promise”

You nod giving him another soft peck

“By the way, where’s the boss?”

Confusion fills your eyes as you look at him

“He’s been here the whole time. Did you not notice?”

And before he can open his mouth he finds himself pulled into a solid chest

“You really love scaring us don’t you”

“Never on purpose”

Arkha presses his lips to Enjin’s before he pulls away and joins you at the foot of the bed, wrapping his arm around your waist as you both look at him

“We’ll be back in a little bit okay” you say as lean into Arkha’s chest.

“Rest Enjin” come Arkha’s deep timbre

And before he knows it his eyes are heavy and he’s drifting back into sleep feeling content and cared for

| CW: tiniest smidge of angst , implied female reader, alcohol (sake)

The wind is gentle as it caresses your skin with soft, feather like touches, filling your nose with the scent of the vibrant blooms that surround you. The soft hum of the ocean waves lapping against the island’s rock face was a soothing lullaby in your ears.

How long has it been since you’ve been able to rest like this?

You remove the geta from your feet placing them along the edge of the blanket you had laid out. Then you take a seat, slowly lowering yourself down to rest on your legs while smoothing out your kimono as not to crush the fabric.

“I don’t get it. Why would you wear that stuffy thing instead of something comfortable like usual” a voice says tearing your from your reverie

“For the same reason you decided to wear nothing but a pair of shorts and boots,” you pause turning your head to face the man beside you. “I wanted to and just in case you forgot, we’re supposed to be blending in.”

“C’mon now, you know I’m just teasing you”

“Har har.”

“Now don’t be like that.” He says pulling a sake bottle between the two of you and pouring it into two ochoko. “Have some sake with me”

“Ace, the last time we drank together you ended up face down on the floor and I had to drag you back to the ship. You’re too heavy for me to do that again”

He lets out a gasps

“You dare comment on my dainty figure” he ask, hand pressed to his chest as though truly appalled

It draws a laugh from your throat, tears streaming down your face as you try and catch your breath

“Ah, there you are.”

He says as he presses his hand to your face, tenderly rubbing his thumb back and forth along your cheek until your eyes shut from sensation.

You turn your head, pressing your lips to the palm of his hand

“I love you Portgas D. Ace, everything that you are and ever will be”

“And I love you. Even after my final breath.” He says sealing his lips to yours.

Whipping winds pull you from your trance, the warmth of the figure that once sat beside you gone as you look at the headstone that lays before you

PORTGAS D. ACE

“Hero To All”

You fill two ochoko and place one at the bottom of the headstone before you speak

“I’m sorry it took me so long to visit, but that means I have so much more to tell you Ace, so why don’t we get started”’

And you can’t tell, but a hand gently caresses your cheek before placing a kiss to your forehead settling as you begin your tale

Hoshina Soshiro is very arranged marriage to friends to lovers coded

From the moment you were born into this world, a bright-eyed baby girl, your future had already been decided for you.

You would master the art of society — speak only when spoken to, laugh when it was appropriate, dress in the latest of fashions, and never, never try to accomplish that which only a man could, but above all else you would learn how to be the proper wife to your betrothed.

The Hoshina Family, small in number but dripping with prowess, had been a renowned swordsman clan for generations, like that of your own, and to make certain that both your family lines remained the strongest you were to be wed to the heir of the clan during your twentieth year.

The thought alone made you sick.

You did not despise being born a woman for it had its own merit, but you despised how society deemed you as a second class citizen, a prize to be given to the highest bidder, and though you knew Hoshina Soshiro had nothing to do with your wings being clipped before ever having a moment to fly, you couldn’t help but resent him for having all the things you yearned for — power, honor, respect. . .

You were forced to view the world from a gilded cage teasing you with bars large enough to peer into the outside world, but not large enough to slip through. Soon your cage would be passed along to your husband who would sit you on a perch as a rare spectacle to behold, but you wouldn’t sing for him.

You wouldn’t sing for anyone.

Your song would remain your own.

I wanna wear a tight little dress and dance with my friends in the club and before I know it I have a big tattooed hand wrapped around my throat and a voice drawls out “were you dancing like this for me” and I laugh and say “no, but maybe next time I will” and he laughs, brings my head up to see him, and I see that its Endo.

Then we end up fucking nasty in the bathroom stall and after we’re done I stuff my panties in a mouth and tell him to “keep it as a souvenir” only to find out later that’s he in the rival gang of my best friend, Hayato Suo

And when we come face to face again I have to act like this man doesn’t know what my pussy taste like

Hayato Suo is observant — always taking in his surroundings before moving forward to avoid possible mishaps.

It’s a skill that’s kept him ahead of his enemies since the moment he joined Furin.

It’s also his ability to observe that has made him such a great friend to you. He knows you like the back of his hand — what makes you light up with happiness, what scares you to death, what grates on your nerves, but like a double-edged sword it also makes him keenly aware of when you’re uncomfortable or hiding something.

Which is why the look currently cemented onto his pretty face has your heart falling from your chest cavity to the pits of your stomach after your confrontation with Noroshi — Yamato Endo in particular.

It’s your fault in truth, had you been able to keep a poker face like you usually do then you wouldn’t be here, but how else were you supposed to handle seeing the man that had you seeing stars in some shoddy, hole in the wall bar not even a week ago?

You were under the assumption that, that night would be the last time you ever saw the man, but you should’ve known better, especially with your shitty luck of the draw in situations like this and now you’re going to have to explain to your best friend why your current enemy is looking at you as though he knows you, but more importantly — how you know him.

It was about to be a long, excruciatingly uncomfortable night.

Yamato Endo has thought about you every moment since your little meeting in that shoddy club.

He thinks about the way you danced on him — hips rotating against the obvious bulge in his pants as you sang along to the shitty pop mix that played in the background, hands thrown around his neck as his teeth sunk into the column of your own, and the soft giggles that tumbled from your pretty mouth as he pulled you into the cramped little bathroom and had his way with you.

You were his dream girl.

And as you walked away from him with a grin on your face that could rival the Cheshire Cat’s, having had just stuffed your thong into his mouth, he realized that he had to find you again

And how funny was fate to drop you right into his awaiting lap

And how much funnier was it that his dream girl was a member of Furin

He feels a smirk tugging at his lips as he watches you try and pretend that you’re not shocked to see him, but it turns into a full on grin with the change in expression of the redhead beside you who looks as though he’s solving a mental puzzle

He would laugh out loud if he could, but if there’s one thing that’s certain it’s that you are even more beautiful in the light of the sun than under the red flashing lights of the club.

And with that Yamato Endo was certain now, he would taste you again and he would make sure that this time you wouldn’t escape him.

Predatory.

The word that comes to mind as you watch Yamato Endo stalk towards his unfortunate opponent.

He’s ravenous – licking his canines as though he were ready to devour the man standing before him, clawing and gnashing at the tender flesh until nothing but the bones remained, but you knew Endo better.

He loves to toy with his food.

Make it seem as though they were finally safe, able to fight back, maybe even win which is why the split on his bottom lip isn’t surprising, but you sense the change in the tide and you know his opponent does as well.

He knows that he’s about to be entrapped in the maw of Yamato Endo never to escape

And as you watch the referee raise Endo’s blood soaked hand in the air to declare him the victor, a sadistic gleam flashes in his eyes as his tongue spreads the blood on his lower lip around, and you can’t help but think that you’re next.

The beast still craves flesh, but this time it’s yours.

“Let me have you”.

Your eyes scan his figure lazily, slowly assessing the damages done to his body — a split on his pouty bottom lip, ten ripped and bloody knuckles that would need to be wrapped, and a plethora of bruises that would only darken overtime.

“No”

You would say that there was no point in arguing with the man in front of you. His indomitable presence is suffocating and the certainty in his voice, coming from the knowledge that you would soon submit, is alluring, but he knows you too well.

You’re stubborn and you won’t give in so easily to him without trying to fight back, because what fun was it to give into the predator without trying to escape first?

“Say that again”

He stalks towards your form, encasing you against the wall behind you with his long arms

“No, not when you’re covered in sweat and literal blood” you repeat locking eyes with him as you settle your hands your hips.

This is how it always played out with the two of you — he would demand, you would reject, which led to you experiencing euphoria you’d never known before meeting the man standing before you

“Why lie to yourself sweetheart? I know that if I lifted up this cute little skirt of yours you’d be drenched right? You’re probably clenching at the sight of all this blood hm? Thinking about what these fingers would feel like curled up in that sweet little cunt”

Your heartbeat quickens, chest rising and falling rapidly, while the walls of your pussy clench around nothing just from the thought of his fingers bringing you to fruition.

But you won’t give in. You can’t give in. This game was only fun when the two of you have built up the tension enough for it to just — snap.

So you scoff at him, pushing his body away from yours so you can cross your arms over your chest.

“Well unlike you, I actually give a damn about what happens to my body, so those fingers aren’t coming anywhere near me until they’re clean”

A smirk tugs on his lips

“What’s the point of cleanin’em when they’re just be covered with your cum soon”

You roll your eyes

“You’re right. I am going to cum soon, but I think it might be on someone else’s fingers”

“Sure sweetheart and who might they be?”

There’s a light that flashes through your eyes as you look at him and with one word you send a rush of blood to his cock

“Mine”

He was sure of it now. He’d never get tired of this little game the two of you played

Umemiya gets hard watching you do domestic things.

You’re washing dishes while you hum a little tune? He’s hard.

You’re in the grocery store talking about which fruits are ripe or not? He’s hard.

You’re wearing the oversized tee you call your “cleaning shirt” because it’s covered in bleach stains? He’s literally so hard he can’t think.

You’re literally so confused when he takes the scrub brush out of your hand and starts lifting you against the door muttering about “how much he needs you right now” and “you don’t understand what you do to him”.

If you are actively silent against the racism that occurs in fandom spaces block me. It’s so much more than “protecting your peace” when you refuse to acknowledge and verbally condemn the racism that poc, ever more so it black people of color, face every day in these so called “community spaces”

And please spare me the “I don’t know enough to speak on the topic”. What more do you need to know about racism and its negative impacts to speak on it? Also, if you’re afraid to write your own piece reblog post that say exactly what you’re trying to convey yourself.

Racism has never and will never just be “fandom discourse”.

When you see someone being called the N word, compared to monkeys, and told that they deserve slave treatment does that not disgust you enough to say something?

Just remember that your black followers and mutuals see how you respond always

Kill your comfort.

#thenews

Sneaking around with you ex husband is such an extremely hot thought

When his hips snap into yours and he’s whispering sweet nothings into your ears, unraveling your body like no one else can you forget why you even got divorced in the first place

“Fuck baby, she’s swallowing me whole. You needed me didn’t you? Needed me to help you fall apart”

He groans as you clench down on him, but what else could you do?

The words that fall from him lips are filthy and the sound of slapping skin and your moans ricochet of the wall in some soft of lewd symphony

“Harder. Please.” nails rake down his back leaving angry marks in their wake, but he doesn’t care, not when he brings his hips all the way back, tip teasing your entrance, before he bottoms out again.

A gasp leaves your parted lips and his lips curl into a smirk

“That’s it baby. That’s fuckin’ it. Keep squeezing’ down on me like that. I’ll give you what you want. I’ll give it to you all” he says using his hand to push your hair from your face

“I love you. I love you. I love you.” A mantra that falls from your lips as you come undone and soon he follows tumbling over the precipe with you hearts beating in sync as his lips meet yours in a kiss that expresses everything you can’t with words

A moment passes, both of you catching your breath before he pulls out, leaving you feeling surprisingly empty

“I should get cleaned up” he says after he takes care of you.

The silence lingers and before he can fully turn around you grab at his wrist

“Why don’t you stay the night? It’s raining and it’s late . . . and I don’t want you to go” the last part doesn’t leave your lips, but as he crawls into bed with you, on the side that was once his own, you can’t help but feel complete for the first time in a while

When I think about an arranged marriage (maybe mafia or maybe the Edo Period) with Shidou or Sae I see two different visions, but one thing is the same . . . They get impossibly hard when you try your best to kill them

It turns Shidou on because he’s a freak and loves that you want nothing to do with him (he’s like uncle fester)

———-

It turns Sae on because it’s a power struggle each time you fight each other, but he knows that you still can’t win against him

One time you leave three long nail marks on Sae’s cheek after a little tussle (lmao) and when his advisor ask him how it happened he said with the straightest face that it was “a lover’s quarrel”

I’ve said it on multiple occasions, but Shidou loves a woman who wants nothing to do with him — the looks of disinterest, the acting as though he’s not even there, and the not at all subtle eye rolls.

It sends chills down his spine, but he wants more from you.

So when he runs his mouth a little too much the feeling of your palm crackling against his cheek has his him reeling because this is it

There’s no longer a look of disinterest marring your face, but a look of absolute, feral rage that has his cock hardening in his pants which you can feel since his body is pressed flush against yours and later that night as he looks down at you with a crazed look in his eye he says something along the lines of “I always want to hear how mean this mouth can be” as he spits on your tongue and watches you swallow it down
