Okay, So Rewatching Season 5 And Maybe I'm A Bit Behind On The Conversation, But Who The Hell Stabbed

I may not word this right, but I like that Apothecary Diaries doesn't reduce any of the female characters to just victims. In so many stories that involve sex work, it seems like the women are victims first and characters second. As if their character is made completely around the fact that they've had this experience and that dictates everything about what they do and think in the story. And while Apothecary Diaries certainly doesn't shy away from the dark side/trama that can come from that line of work, it does do a good job at acknowledging that none of the characters are really defined by it or shamed for it in the story for that matter.

The first time I saw this when I watched the anime I straight up was like, "Okay, they have that type of friendship." It reads like an inside joke to me. Like they're referencing something from when they worked together, and it just became a running joke that no one else would probably understand.

Bones robbed us of Dazai literally laughing out loud at Chuuya's rich girl act.

Chapter 14 is live! Fandom: All For The Game - Nora Sakavic

Chapter Exerpt:

“Kevin! Jean! Just the guys I was looking for!” Neil said. “Who’s on Tetsuji duty today?”

Jean instantly pointed at Kevin before the older man could realize what was asked. He smacked his hand away and looked at Neil. “What are you on about?”

“Ichirou is coming Monday and since you’re on Tetsuji duty, you’re voluntarily drafted to tell him about the meeting. Congratulations!”

“He really did some damage when he knocked you out this time, didn’t he?”

“I severely doubt there is anything in his skull to damage,” Jean replied.

“Haha. Bite me.”

Hypothetically, if Fyodor took over Chuuya’s body, would Arahabaki go nuclear? It's implied in Stormbringer that Arahabaki is only dormant because his vessel is Chuuya specifically. And we know Chuuya only has some access to Arahabaki’s power since he doesn't have the black flames or turn into a monster like Verlaine did with Guivre. So, would Fyodor be able to restrain the god? Or would he instantly go into corruption mode?

On that note, would he be able to take over Lovecraft since it's implied he's not human and even Dazai couldn't nullify him?

I like that there is a legitimate reason to explain how a technique works in JJK. We all know it's just a trope in anime to call out/explain abilities and a quick way for the author to inform the reader/viewer what's going on. But making it so that explaining a technique makes it stronger is a creative way to incorporate that trope and provides a believable reason as to why a character would be willing to explain their attacks to an opponent without it enturely being an actual detriment.

Chapter 5 of Singularities has been posted! Hope you enjoy!

Exerpt:

Chuuya passed the guards stationed in front of the Boss’s office and closed the doors behind him. “You wanted to see me, Boss?”

Mori looked up from some paperwork. “Chuuya, I hear your recovery’s gone well?”

He rubbed the bandages still around his wrists. Even with Chuuya being a ridiculously fast healer, the wounds from the stakes and barbwire were going to take a while to fully go away. “Yeah, minus the migraine from Dazai constantly bothering me.”

Mori smirked. “I must admit, that was partly my doing. I asked him to check in on you for me.”

Chuuya sighed. “I appreciate the concern, Boss. But you really could’ve sent literally anyone else.”

He shrugged and put out a hand. “May I have a look?”

Chuuya stepped around Elise and the creepy doodle she was working on and gave him his wrist. The ex‑doctor unwrapped the bandage and examined the healing wound. It was clinical in a way that made Chuuya’s skin crawl for a reason he didn’t fully understand.

“Hmm, you are an extraordinarily fast healer, even for an ability user. And judging by your progress, you may not even have scars from this.” Mori fastened the bandage back in place. “Fascinating.”

I don't think it's reasonable to say that Chuuya felt betrayed by Dazai leaving the Mafia.

Like, the guy literally got stabbed in the back and almost killed via firing squad and still proceeded to ask for the Sheep to be spared and a year later went out of his way to save the guy that literally stabbed him in the back.

I mean, he was only slightly miffed that Dazai blew up his car. So, I severely doubt Dazai just quitting his job did any real damage.

Also, just the Emperor casually outing Jinshi as not actually being a eunuch just to tease him about his crush on Maomao.

I know it probably won't be the case, but I would love it if, in Tower of God, Arlene is revealed to be a very caring and doting mom to Baam. Like, she can be bat shit crazy and will destroy you for looking at her wrong, but when it comes to Baam, I would love it if she was a caring parent with a legitimate reason for not being around (improsioned or something like that). One, because he deserves a good parent. And two, it would be an interesting character dynamic given that every other parent in the story is competing for the worst parent of the year award.

Love your writing!

Thank you! 💜💜💜 I should be posting more soon!
