Sigh

Fatherly Love

A/N: I always wanted to write some fluffy stuff for Ash and Max. He kinda was like the father he never really had and even in the anime he was looking out for him. Considering his past, I thought of a good way to approach the topic of him tickling Ash, so I hope I could implement it in a good way

Summary: Seeing Michael and max having some playful father-son moment, Ash could be a stinging in his heart. Luckily, his family in just the right way to make it go away, turning his inner cry into laughter.

some people liked my ash that i drew, so here are ash n eiji that i drew last year

ok so another thing all my ships seem to have in common-

"No one can touch me or my things except this one oblivious idiot I am hopelessly in love with since our first meet" trope.

made me think of them.

I'm certain a lot of people see Eiji as a ✨️smol cinnamon roll✨️

The boy is crazy

Who in their right mind sees a gang leader and is like "I choose him". Visits him in prison like "I'll come visit you again 🥺💕" .

Eiji is depressed and unhinged lol

Ash & Eiji’s Body Stats

Source: Shogakukan Bunko edition. Please note that the volume and page numbering are different from the more ubiquitous Flower Comics edition.

Ash

Vol. 4 pg. 254, police’s report:

Height: 5′9′‘ (175 cm).

Weight: 135 lbs (61 kg).

Note that the police’s data likely originated from Ash’s stint in jail. Hence, these were probably Ash’s height and weight when he first met Eiji. (Thank you, @maluron , for bringing this to my attention.)

Vol. 5, pg. 65, Ash himself:

Height: 5 ft. 11 in. (180 cm).

Weight: 135 lbs (61 kg).

By the time the Christopher Winston arc rolled around, Ash had grown by 2 inches.

Vol. 10 pg. 34, Foxx’s report:

Height: 5 ft. 11 in. (180 cm).

Weight: 150.5 lbs (68 kg).

Note that Ash lost a lot of weight during his time in Golzine’s hands, and this data was probably taken before he fell sick.

Eiji

Banana Fish: Another Story, Fly Boy in the Sky, pg. 275-276, Ibe was comparing Eiji’s height to that of another pole-vaulter, Kazuhiko Mizuno (187 cm):

Height when he was 17: 172 cm (15 cm shorter than 187 cm).

Note that Eiji’s weight is never mentioned in the series. That said, we know Eiji could manhandle Ash (from bedroom to bathroom to dining room and back to bathroom; see Vol. 7 pg. 226):

…while Ash has never been shown to carry Eiji around.

In other words, Eiji is definitely shorter than Ash, but it doesn’t mean he’s a lot weaker in terms of raw muscle power than Ash. Ash is a canonical speedster who prefers stealth, ambush, and one-on-one combat, and whose main weakness is his relative lack of stamina and power. In fact, Blanca criticised him for not having enough bulk on his frame (Vol. 8 pg. 59). Meanwhile, Eiji can literally catapult his entire body weight metres into the air using a fibreglass pole.

Please use this as reference when you want to write/draw some R18 stuff for your fan creations, and remember that when the going gets physical in more ways than one, Eiji is more likely to manhandle Ash than Ash is to manhandle Eiji.

Eiji lost his found family as quickly as he found it.

Goodnight.
