New Theory: Mr. Crawling is actually Shinpei who got stuck in the other world---and Adami reminds him of Satoko.
i just remembered seeing a fanart of mr. crawling on twt of him in a what-if of what his life was like before he became a ghost and it's him depicted as like a bodyguard kind of like samurai.
and then it reminded me of shinpei from firefly wedding/hotaru no yomeiri. someone who's also very dedicated to his partner (satoko) and would do anything to stay with her and protect her, much like what mr. crawling does with mc🩷
Thank you @satano-okawaii and everyone who got me to 250 reblogs!
The fact that Mitsuba actually looks so happy about it at the end of the panel is so cute, I can't. And the fact that Kou actually listens to what Mitsuba likes---Kou is such a wholesome potato. Why did AidaIro have to make these two so loveable?
Hey there!
Thank you so much for the likes—I really appreciate it!
Are you a writer? If so, what genre do you write about?
Thanks for your interest! To say I'm an 'aspiring' writer would be more accurate (lol). I generally tend to write mystery, drama, horror---sometimes romance (but mainly the former). I'm currently working a few projects I hope to finish but haven't really been able to due to my personal life. One project of mine that really has my attention is called, "The Bone King."
If only this is what actually happened in the chapter/episode (T v T)
Hananene Tanabata Week! ~Day 4 - Wishes~
I do find it cute how Hanako and Yashiro are usually holding hands in the official art. And Hanako lovingly taking care of fish Yashiro in the last one is sending me---
decided compile all of the official art i cleaned in one post in case anyone looking for them needs some ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i never realized how many i worked on, wow
i keep forgetting to mention this but i don't really mind if anyone uses my cleans without credit, but it's deeply appreciated tho ^^
Muy bonito! Keep it up, this art is good!
Some art of my new favourite babies! It's been a long time since I did fanart of anything at all but this was so so much fun to draw :)
I'm sorry not sorry but I do not understand the sympathy Oushi gets in A Sign of Affection.
Sure, some people struggle with shyness and emotional availability but there is a major difference between that and straight up being a d---
Oushi is just a crappy friend and even crappier at showing someone he supposedly likes that he cares about her. As far as I'm concerned, he did it to himself. For me, Oushi is just a reflection of how a tsundere would actually be handled in real life.
He belittles her and is just a douchebag for no reason. He even learned sign language just to continue being a douche to her. And yet I see people being like, "He just loves her so much" or "Oh I feel so sorry for him---" I know I don't (lol).
I understand people have flaws, but you cannot actively mistreat someone on a consistent basis and expect them to put up with it when they have a better option. And I'm sorry to say it, but Itsuomi is the MUCH better option because he actually treats Yuki like a person---whereas Oushi treats Yuki like an inconvenience. On top of that he's also low-key abelist because he legit tries to convince Yuki that going to school wouldn't be a good idea. He acts like she'll burn like a vampire if she walks outside. I get wanting to support someone, but that doesn't involve isolating them (ahem, Hanako-Kun, ahem).
How the [BLEEP] are you gonna avoid telling your feelings to someone for TEN YEARS and then be upset when someone beats you to the punch? You can't ignore a diamond on the ground and be mad when someone else picks it up. Oushi's annoying, controlling, belittling, possessive, and hypocritical---it's a heck naw for me.
If y'all like men who have the emotional maturity of a middle school boy who thinks insulting you is the epitome of affection, then fine---but I do know this: Yuki deserves better than that. She's been through so much crap, finally finds a guy who treats her good, and Oushi wants to come mess it up because he didn't have the balls to be upfront with his feelings.
This actually helps so much, please marry me
Writing Tips
Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”
It honestly shocks me how virtually no one in the TBHK fandom is talking about how physically strong Yashiro is. She is a lot stronger than we give her credit for.
Haters will call it glaze, but I call it appreciation.
Now, let me make this clear for anyone who wants to be like, "well, ackshually--" yes, I know that Yashiro doesn't have the same amount of physical strength as Hanako---of course she doesn't. Hanako, despite having the build of a stick, is capable of taking down entities twice his size with just his willpower and a knife.
Hanako has obviously had more than enough time to adapt to the world around him and thus got adequate fighting skills as a result of that. No question that Yashiro obviously is not on the same physical wavelength. But y'all aren't going to gaslight me into saying that Yashiro can't throw hands.
Sure, we can argue that some of these moments were for comedic effect, but I don't think it downplays her feats here. She might not have Isekai level fighting skills, but she knows how to get rrready to rrrumble.
Heck, from the very start when her and Hanako's bond was first officialized by the mermaid scale, Hanako teases her (like the jackoff he is) and Yashiro responds by elbowing this nickel clean in the NECK. In fact, she elbows him so hard, it KNOCKS him over into the DESKS.
Yes, we could also argue in this moment that Yashiro didn't mean to actually hurt him since she didn't know she could touch him. But the fact she even still threw hands at him says quite a bit to me.
In fact, the added notion that she thought she COULDN'T harm him makes it more effective in displaying her strength in being able to fully topple this boy over. Because if that's what she was gonna do ironically, how strong would she be if she were to seriously throw hands? (Don't worry, that question is answered later in this post)
Yashiro since then continues to throw hands with Hanako whenever he gets on her nerves. She beats on Hanako nearly every other crescent moon, but Hanako deals with it because he's a masochist. There's no other explanation I can provide for why he lets her do this stuf to him.
There's no way he's NOT actively letting her hurt him with the amount of physical strength Hanako clearly has and has been shown to have (this dude won a fight against floating scissors in the Misaki Stairs, for crying out loud---)
Did we forget that time in the spinoff manga where she managed to pin him down to the floor with a MOP?
Or what about that time Yashiro heard him talk about her and so she defied physics and attacked from the side HEAD FREAKING FIRST?
"Oh but that's just her and Hanako's dynamic--"
Fear not, dear reader, because there's many more instances of Yashiro casually flexing her strength and agility.
There was a time within the Misaki Stairs arc where Yashiro literally runs and glides across a DOLL to jump up, then lands perfectly, and reaches Yako's yorishiro. Even Hanako was shocked.
Oh, that's not enough?
Well, let me introduce you to a (not-so) wonderful being known as Nakahara from Chapter 115, who pinned Yashiro to a wall and she (rightfully) responded by UPPERCUTTING HIM from the JAW, doing a FRONT FLIP across the guy's CHEST, landing on the floor perfectly, and speeding off away from him.
Comedic, exaggerated, or not, you can't deny that's some pretty impressive stuff.
I don't care what no one says, Yashiro can throw hands when it counts.
You perfectly explained why the models look so off---thank you so much. I hope both sides of your pillow are cold when you sleep.
I have thoughts.
I legit hate it when people do this.
when they put freaky ah smut in the fluff tags 💔
