I need to reblog again IM SORRY FOR THE SUDDEN LIKES/FOLLOWS/REBLOGS I NEED TO TOUCH GRASS AGAIN
I think about that writing prompt about a hero ending up in the villains' group chat i reblogged back then sometimes. How i immediately felt like having tsuna in the hero's role, and then very predictably paired him up with the arcos as the villains lol. I'm not sorry about it. <3
So there's tsuna who isn't actually a hero but a nobody civilian, who first thinks this is someone playing a prank on him because no way he just got added to the actual group chat of one of the most notorious group of villains in the world. Tsuna who goes from "um, hi? Can i help you?" But then never actually gets to "i think there was some kind of mistake here" because the arcos are a bunch of yappers.
And at some point between "who the fuck is that?" "Is he one of you guys' underlings?" "Since when are we adding underlings to this group chat?" "Why don't you just hold a press conference to reveal all of our most sensitive information on live tv while you're at it, skull?", skull goes "i added him on purpose!!!" You know, like a liar. He IS the one who added tsuna, and judging by the others' reactions, he clearly wasn't meant to, but he doesn't remember why the hell it was on his to-do-list to do then?? Also the guy's profile picture and name don't even ring any fucking bell. Wait, was he supposed to add him to his underlings' group chat instead?? Ugh, whatever!!!
(Did tsuna... apply to become a group of villains' underling? He doesn't remember that.)
"What purpose?" The arcos continue to yap. "Aren't we always bitching about how nobody ever reads what the others have to say on here??" Skull says. "Well, there you have it! He can keep track of it and let us know of the important things!"
(Did tsuna... apply for this specific position as an underling?? He doesn't remember that either.)
i was hesitating whether to share this because it doesn't really advance the story or anything, plus this turned out to be less of a chat fic and more of a proper narrative story, but i figured the interactions in and of themselves would be fun to see haha. @mistingrain @otaku-reborn have a little addition to this verse!
Skull sends him the contract. Tsuna reads it through. Signs it and sends it back before he can think better of it.
He receives a package the very next day with a phone in it. It's the exact same one as the one he has, except it's immediately apparent when he turns it on that this one is at the height of technology. It comes with a second screen where the group chat app is and that can only be accessed when he's the one holding the phone, among other features.
Otherwise it appears to be a normal phone, and Tsuna clones all the data of his phone to the new one before he sends the old one back to the sender as instructed.
As soon as he turns the phone on and logs onto the group chat app, he gets jump scared by the arco all sending him private messages.
Back again lol @mistingrain @otaku-reborn (btw this might be the last addition for all i know lol, but let me know whenever you want me to stop tagging you!)
The group chat stays completely inactive for a week and some, and tsuna's not sure what to make of it. He doesn't know if it's normal for them because the messages automatically deletes themselves every 12 hours, so he can't back read to see how often or not so often they use the group chat. He makes sure to check it every 4 hours at the very least too, so he knows it's not that he just so happens to miss them when they do use the group chat.
Well, even easier for him, right? He's going to get paid handsomely for literally doing nothing. They will still pay him even on months they don't use the group chat at all, right??
But tsuna being tsuna, it just gives him more anxiety over it lol. He'd like to feel like he's earned at least some of his salary, you see. Plus, what if this means bad news??
And okay, yes, maybe it's unlikely seeing as they're one of the strongest group of villains in the world and all, plus the news would definitely say something about it, but still. He'd like to know if he has to look for another job, especially if he ends up quitting the one at the restaurant to fully focus on this one.
(Plus, like. Spare some compassionate thoughts about their unlikely deaths, he guesses?? Or something. Whatever.)
(Oh, wait. Is this just their way of firing him by ghosting him???
Um, rude if true.)
And again

"your boyfriend's here," one of tsuna's coworkers tells him.
"Which one?" He says, because they're busy and don't have time for the usual 'not my boyfriend/whatever you say' back and forth.
"The weirdo one." Now of course they're ALL weirdos, but the last one who acted the weirdest gets to wear that badge of honor until one of the others ones-up them lol. Plus tsuna's learned to guess whose not-boyfriends his coworkers are talking about going by their tone of voices and stuff.
(OR his not-girlfriend too. ☝🏽 but there's only one so that immediately makes it easier lol. UNLESS ✋🏽 kyoko and haru have something to say about that, but they haven't let me know yet if it's the case.)
"Kyoya?" He asks anyway, hoping against all hope.
"Yep, that one. He's waiting for you in the boss' office."
Shit.
Yes ofc this isnt a fic, Hope, this isnt a fic. Just a very long, 20k words, with worldbuilding and carefully written 'tumblr post' that is updated every week. Nice try in denial, Hope, you are almost as good as tsuna now :P keep trying and maybe this post will take a spot in your khr fic collections on ao3 :)
Is this already at 20k words. 😭 THE WORLDBUILDING'S HAPPENING AGAINST MY WILL. ✋🏽 Like all worldbuilding i end up having to do for any of my stories actually lmao. Somehow i never see it coming that writing aus also means figuring out how those alternate universes work. 😂
Anyway. I might have some more scenes left for this story WHO SAID THAT???
Thee pheathers' khr collection/works that is about to go from 96 to 97 🎉🙌
[ID: Screenshot of my works on ao3 for the fandom Katekyo Hitman Reborn. /End ID]
OH RIGHT HAHA. You know, i've actually been thinking if i should make a series on ao3 for my tumblr exclusive stories. Which'd stop being tumblr exclusive once i'd have cross-posted them over on ao3 lol, but you know. I kind of like the idea of having tumblr exclusive stories tho. But at the same time, the idea has also kind of always been to post them over on ao3 too once i'd consider them "proper, finished stories" (idk what that means either 😭), but who knows when that'll ever happen lmao.
On another note, i feel like i've been stuck at 96 works for forever now zbdksks. Like, every time i post a new work, somehow it's still and always my 96 work haha
I HOPE I DID NOT PRESSURE YOU TO POST IT ON AO3 AGHCHFCHT PLS HAVE A TUMBLR EXCLUSIVE FICS CUZ THIS PLACE IS LIKE A SECRET UNDERGROUND BASEMENT FOR THE FANDOM AND I NEED A REASON TO COME BACK HERE
Anddd for the fics on ao3, 96 is Chromes number so i was hoping that you would keep it like that for a while hehehe

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be a part of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

Hope, at this point, i think the post has possessed you and forced you to write an entire fic already.
maybe i like my tech a little bit inconvenient
maybe i like pulling out my debit card instead of using apple pay. maybe i like untangling my wired headphones. maybe i like typing something into the search bar instead of using siri or whatever. maybe i like curating my own social media feeds over an algorithm. i just don’t think everything has to be perfectly streamlined and efficient i like it when things feel tethered to the real world.

i can't vibe with anyone who thinks icarus was an ignorant idiot for flying too close to the sun. "oh i'd never do that i would have remembered my father's warning and been fine". do you seriously think that after years of imprisonment, feeling the sun on your face and the open air beneath your wings, you would be able to focus on anything but the joy of being alive and free? do you actually think that if you were given the opportunity to go where nobody has never been before, you wouldn't want to push it to the limit? to dare to be the first to try what no one else has ever even thought possible? do you honestly think you're too good for your own human nature? look me in the eyes and tell me if i strapped a pair of wings to your back that could take you wherever you wanted to go whenever you pleased that you'd be careful and sensible about it. you are not better than icarus just because you have the benefit of his example.
“You are not better than Icarus just because you have the benefit of his example” go off
Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”
and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”
and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay.
a quick psa to anyone recently getting into greek mythology and is a victim of tumblr and/or tiktok misconceptions:
-there is no shame in being introduced to mytholgy from something like percy jackson, epic the musical or anything like that, but keep in mind that actual myths are going to be VERY different from modern retellings
-the myth of medusa you probably know (her being a victim of poseidon and being cursed by athena) isn't 100% accurate to GREEK mythology (look up ovid)
-there is no version of persephone's abduction in which persephone willingly stays with hades, that's a tumblr invention (look up homeric hymn to demeter)
-as much as i would like it, no, cerberus' name does not mean "spot" (probably a misunderstanding from this wikipedia article)
-zeus isn't the only god who does terrible things to women, your fav male god probably has done the same
-on that note, your fav greek hero has probably done some heinous shit as well
-gods are more complicated than simply being "god of [insert thing]", many titles overlap between gods and some may even change depending on where they were worshipped
-also, apollo and artemis being the gods of the sun and the moon isn't 100% accurate, their main aspects as deities originally were music and the hunt
-titans and gods aren't two wholly different concepts, titan is just the word used to decribe the generation of gods before the olympians
-hector isn't the villain some people make him out to be
-hephaestus WAS married to aphrodite. they divorced. yes, divorce was a thing in ancient greece. hephaestus' wife is aglaia
-ancient greek society didn't have the same concepts of sexuality that we have now, it's incorrect to describe virgin goddesses like artemis and athena as lesbians, BUT it's also not wholly accurate to describe them as aromantic/asexual, it's more complex than that
-you can never fully understand certain myths if you don't understand the societal context in which they were told
-myths have lots and lots of retellings, there isn't one singular "canon", but we can try to distinguish between older and newer versions and bewteen greek and roman versions
-most of what you know about sparta is probably incorrect
-reading/waching retellings is not a substitute to reading the original myths, read the iliad! read the odyssey! i know they may seem intimidating, but they're much more entertaining than you may think
greek mythology is so complex and interesting, don't go into it with preconcieved notions! try to be open to learn!
When I say “free water, free food, free shelter, free healthcare, free education for everyone” in that “everyone” I even include the people I hate. Too many people get surprised at the idea that I do wish for the people I hate to have better lives.
When I say EVERYONE, I mean EVERYONE. These are things ALL people should have. If you reblog this saying “except THIS group” then you’ve missed the point entirely.
i want to remove the boots from necks altogether, not just be the one to put on the boot.
Don’t know about OP, but when I say it, this is not selflessness! It’s not selflessness at all. There are still people I would prefer get fucked over! There are really awful shitty people in the world!
But I understand that the tables always turn. ALWAYS. There is no final glorious revolution where The Right People will be in charge forever. The only way to ensure the boot will never be on your neck again is to throw away the fucking boot. Set the table so you eat well no matter which way it turns!
ALL OF THIS. Leave no one behind. We all deserve food, clean water, clean air, healthcare, housing, electricity, internet, and so forth. No matter who you are, you deserve to be able to access and have what you need to survive.
So yes, yes, yes to “throw away the fucking boot.”
I want the people I hate to step on Legos for the rest of their life, not have that life ended prematurely because of something totally preventable
The absolute best revenge you can get on someone you hate is to never, ever give them what they want. And in a lot of the cases of the worst people in the world, what they want is for you to ‘break’ and 'fall’ and all that other BS that they think separates them from you.
“You’re not going to die a martyr. You’re not going to be killed in the name of wiping out evil. You’re going to be given every…single…thing a human being deserves. You’re going to get the rights you stripped from other people. You’re going to get the care and treatment you denied other people. You’re going to get the simple, basic, easy to provide things that every human being deserves that you tried to turn into controlled commodities so you could lord over others. You’re going to be treated the way you hate to see in the world.”
“…and there’s not a goddamn thing you can do about it.”

There are political newspaper comics that aren't this succinct
The KHR system is such a good fictional power system to plug other universe's characters into for a lot of reasons and it's a genuine hobby of mine to sit down and make lists of which characters go where, but I wanted to actually talk about why that is. So here's my random list of what makes the KHR Flames system so easily applicable to any character.
The first thing that makes it work so well is how it actually works. Most systems like this in media are based upon just aspects of a character's personality. The KHR system has that to an extent, but if you actually examine it closely, it's also about characters' roles within the story itself. Yes, Skies tend to have magnetic/charismatic personalities (whether deliberately or not), but being a Sky is moreso about you having that impact on other people, not any specific personality traits. If your faction's leader has some aspect of personality that draws people to them, be it something like the Vongola kids' bonds with Tsuna and trust in him, the Varia's respect for Xanxus's might, or whatever codepedency stuff Byakuran and his Funeral Wreaths had going on, you've got youself a Sky. These are all very different forms of leadership, but they're all equally valid for a Sky. This remains consistent for each characterization. Clouds are characters who are almost part of a group but maintain some level of distance (think "lone wolf" types), Storms are similar but not 1 to 1 of the Lancer archetype, so on and so forth. For the sake of brevity, I'm going to move on here instead of listing out all seven.
I already touched upon my second point in the first, but KHR's system is incredibly flexible. It says nothing about moral alignment, for instance. Skies do not have to be morally good leaders or heroic, they just have to be good at attracting people. That can be through manipulation or force just as much as it can be through genuinity. Rains are typically meant to be tranquil and represent the end of conflict, but that can be through violent means- hell, our main Rains in the series are specifically hitmen, and while characters like Romario, Yamamoto and Basil are generally calm, steady Rains, we've also got Squalo. Kikyo, despite being Byakuran's right hand and heavily involved, is still a Cloud. This lets you focus on what a character does for the story, rather than who they are as a person. Any (decently written) character will do something for a story besides just exist within it, so any character can fit into at least one of those roles.
"At least one" is very important phrasing and leads me into my third point: the dominant vs non-dominant Flame system means you don't have to pick one. You can have a dominant flame and nothing else or a dominant flame and any combination of the others as non-dominant Flames. On the fence? Pick which aspect is the most defining for your character, and make that their dominant. Include the rest as non-dominant traits. There is so much room for nuance and complexity, this is not a "one size fits all" type of system!
Fourth, a lot of kinassignable categorizations in media are specifically faction systems. KHR's Flames system on the other hand describes someone's role within a faction. Thus when making a KHR AU, you can decide which characters to put into which factions based off which characters you want them to be alongside while still picking the best Flame for them. You can even have sub-factions like the Varia!
And lastly, while the Flames were designed for mafia families, there's nothing specific about the system that makes it vital your Flames-assigned characters are in a mafia specifically. They can be in any sort of faction, from a fantasy AU kingdom to a modern AU friend group, so long as they are grouped up together. You could totally do a KHR-style mafia AU, but you could also do "everything is the same except the characters have Flames AU" or literally anything else. The Flames system can be lifted from its original setting without any actual alteration to what the classifications themselves are like, which is in my opinion the most important quality if we're talking about ease of adaptation.
