I Know Kaz Gets A Lot Of Shit For Calling Inej And Investment In Six Of Crows, But If You Take Into Account

I know Kaz gets a lot of shit for calling Inej and investment in Six of Crows, but if you take into account the culture he grew up in, it's actually really sweet. Hear me out. When you acknowledge just how important commerce is in Kerch, and particularly Ketterdam, it adds a lot more meaning behind the seemingly throwaway line. Commerce is more than just financial in that culture. It's spiritual. This is a place where the main god is Ghezen, the god of industry and commerce. Their main church is literally called the Church of Barter. Saying someone is an investment in a culture like that would have way deeper implications than simply a surface level business transaction. It's someone you'd want to take care of and protect. Someone you'd want to see succeed and keep close enough to reap the benefit from that success. Someone you'd put time and effort into. It wouldn't be surprising if marriage or having children would be considered an investment in that culture because, to them, it wouldn't cheapen the emotional value of these things but highlight just how important those relationships are. It's not surprising that this goes over Inej's head (and most of the other characters' heads) because she's not from that culture. But for someone who is, it would show just how important his relationship to her is to him. Especially considering he says this while he's putting himself in danger (and probaby a lot of pain considering his leg) just to save her and keep her safe.

Part 2 of Tales of the Thirteen

“Perfect timing! Arlene, Zahard, who’s your non-human hear me out character?”

The Thirteen Great Warriors have some downtime on their climb up the Tower and end up on the topic of their "hear me out" characters.

(All answers were found on Reddit and I am now scarred for life.)

Random thought that crossed my brain about BSD. In Stormbringer, Dazai has Rimbaud's journal, and he read it. Given that it was a spy's journal, it's safe to assume it was encoded, but Dazai’s probably smart enough to break a code. However, Rimbaud would have written it to be decoded into French (becauseya know, he's French), not Japanese. So, Dazai either had to have someone else translate/decode it (unlikely), learned to read French fluently (a nightmare in and of itself because fuck how letters work apparently) before breaking the code, or he was already fluent in French at 16.

During the cleanup of Chuuya and Verlaine’s fight, Dazai finds out there was another clone in Facility B and decides to retrieve it while Chuuya is recovering from his first time using Corruption.

Chuuya navigates being in the Port Mafia and taking care of his new little brother, and Dazai navigates the new dynamic in his an Chuuya’s partnership.

Not that Dazai cares ... right?

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.”

I think it would be adorable if Jeremy started playing songs with French lyrics in them to make Jean feel more at home. Or if Jeremy secretly learned French to surprise Jean. Either scenario would be cute.

Okay, I just caught up on Apothecary Diaries, and while this show always has dark themes (and is quite frankly a masterclass in how they can be handled), the ending of s2e33 was ... Damn. I mean, talk about a taste of your own medicine.

One thing that is not utilized enough in Baam/Khun fics is the fact that Baam is generally shown a back sleeper that straight up does not move in his sleep while Khun tends to be shown more as a side sleeper and not only moves quite a bit but is also cannonically a blanket hog. If they were to sleep together, Baam is being used as the human pillow and may or may not end up with blankets and/or bruises from being kicked.

So, I've been reading the webtoon for Tower of God after watching the anime and came across something that I'm sure is unintentional, but hilarious none the less. In ep. 101 of the Webtoon, Rak says "Son of a turtle," which implies that "turtle" equates at least loosely to "bitch." So Rak has been calling everyone "bitch" the entire time and I think that just makes it so much funnier.

@radiant-7 No historical proof?! Yasuke was a real living, breathing person! He was alive in the 1500s and is famously the first Black samurai! A literal five second Google search will tell you that. How can you have a problem with the creators being historically accurate with what he is most famous for?

Yasuke (Assassin's Creed Shadows)
Yasuke (Assassin's Creed Shadows)

Yasuke (Assassin's Creed Shadows)

See, with all the antiblack racism we've been put through over this man's sheer existence, is proof enough that he's excellent Black character design. Everyone rise and give Yasuke a standing ovation right NEOW-
