Hitomi, post Mizuki Route: Iris... I don't know how to tell you. But the truth is your attempted killer, So Sejima, ... is actually your father.

Osiris:

My fic has been posted!!!!!! It's short but it may have been the quickest thing I have ever written after getting inspiration. Hitomana my beloved...

Spoilers in the fic :P

going insane at the fact that Manaka Iwai wore a friendship bracelet. She was just a girl. Did Hitomi make it for her? Did Renju? Did they all have matching ones? I am going to explode.

girls who are fishie >>>

oh my GOD I just remembered that in Hitomi's somnium you have to give her a friendship bracelet in order to progress. Assuming she made Manaka's bracelet, then that bracelet was the one Manaka made for her... I'M GONNA CRY

the desire to be a part of a zine so bad ooooooo I know my empty portfolio hate to see me coming

they couldn't give my autistic ass an AI-Ball. I'd be staring at the wall for hours asking them to go through articles and articles of my special interests.

well, I mean obviously I would not get an AI-Ball since I would not be working for the police KEKW but I would be using my powers for autism and yuri

"Leo did you solve the case?" No man I was looking at (kiki and) booba videos and learning about why pigeons in urban environments are so colorful

none of those characters are normal but that's what makes them so great

With the Persona 5 gacha coming out on global I think they should do collabs with the other gachas that they killed. I just think a Persona 5 x Love Live collab is very much needed after SIF died.

I love Amame aitsf but I feel like literally only her and Mizuki (& Aiba) were the only returning characters in AINI that were written remotely well.

major spoilers on AINI that are mentioned in a kind of vague way but also are still very major things. like I don't flat out say "x is the killer" but I mention their parents. ok so it is kind of major spoilers. don't read ahead if you haven't played the game:

Boss was "ok." Some of the routes she was written so bad. I don't understand why. She did not have that much screentime in comparison to the first game, nor was she that important, but the game never really explained why she acted so weird in... that specific route.

Date was abysmal. I don't understand how his relationship with Mizuki was a core aspect of the first game and then just thrown away in the second. And then even afterwards they barely have any screentime together. It makes absolutely no sense. I understand the context and circumstances, I just do not understand why it was written to be so in the first place where it was just unnecessary. I get it. But why? Why throw away something so important? And the stupid spoiler mode or whatever... his whole character was washed down. He was bad, plain and simple.

Mizuki Date. Yes I just said she was good. I think she WAS good, but literally everything with her backstory was bad. It literally just destroyed everything about her character in the first game. Ok major spoiler now. I simply do not understand why she was... a clone? Actual stupidest thing I have ever heard of before in my life. I understand the superstrength, yeah, sure. But a clone of Bibi? If anything I would have preferred Bibi to be a clone of her who aged faster, to mirror Shoma.

Mizuki Kuranushi. Bibi. Yes she is not in the first game. That's the problem. There is absolutely no reference to a character that is literally the adopted daughter of a major character. The lack of reference to her is still in-character for Boss, but it is stupid. Like I said before I think she should have been a clone of Mizuki and not the other way around. Mizuki being the biological daughter of Renju and Shoko was literally a MAJOR aspect of her character. The thought of Shoko taking Mizuki to a shady doctor to "make her normal" and her ending up with superstrength and then Chikara making Bibi from her DNA makes more sense. Literally makes more sense for both Mizuki and Bibi. And I of course would have wanted more bonding scenes with Bibi and her mama Boss, they clearly love each other very much and yet it is BARELY seen. Mizuki's clone having a better relationship with her mother (Boss) would have been even more devastating for Mizuki's character, yet had she and Date been close in AINI I think it would have balanced each other beautifully. Bibi's inclusion also makes the Annihilation route in the first game more devastating. (Also Ota ending too)

Pewter. They dgaf about him in the second game and to be honest I forgot about him too. They killed his boyfriend and killed his character.

Moma. Again, they dgaf about him in the second and to be honest I forgot about him too. They made him an Iris simp and that's it. Boring character.

Ota. They should have just let him die or something. I know there are good aspects of his character but he literally shows absolutely no growth in the canon ending of the first game and no arc in the second game. All he is really is an Iris simp. His heroic moments are not even canon nor are they... good. I lose braincells seeing him on screen, at least make him INTERESTING. Make him learn something. I don't care that his diner is doing well, good for him I guess, that is literally all I got from him in the second game.

Speaking of losing brain cells. IRIS SAGAN. SHE WAS WRITTEN. SO POORLY. AND I KNOW SHE WILL BE BAD IN THE NEW GAME. Yes the autistic daughter with a special interest in the occult and mythology was written poorly. It's not the special interest that was bad, it was the fact that she was basically reduced to it. A lot of her illogical behavior is explained in the first game as her having a tumor. Her illogical fears, the way she connects information, how she acts... and then... the second game happens... and its like nothing at all? Naix is actually real and she is not part of the arc whatsoever? She acts airheaded all the time, and yet she is still described as sneaky and calculating... but she does nothing? In making the thing she was scared of in the first game actually real and then completely making her irrelevant to that thing it REALLY damages her character. "Oh Iris is acting irrational because she has a brain tumor. No, actually the thing she was scared of was real. No, instead of having her confront the thing she was scared of let us write her to look like a fool." Stupid. All she does is make pop culture references, get simped for (and stupidly does not notice anything despite being a grown adult), and then written for her bestie to prioritize her over her father. And then... there is no on-screen reconciliation between her and Amame after? Actually, there is barely any (I don't actually remember anything aside from the school ones) interactions between the two? How are they gonna throw away her character, barely show her interact with Date, her mother, her sister (Mizuki), her bio dad, and even her friend? And just have her... kind of just hanging out with Ota? And not even in a way that improves either character, just a convenient "oh these two unnecessary side characters are in the same spot how convenient for the player."

Speaking of her family. Hitomi. She is irrelevant to the second game despite literally being Mizuki's adoptive mother. Is this canon? Who fucking knows! The writers sure don't! As far as I recall, we don't even have a damn clue where Mizuki lives! Probably in Date's apartment, but the information is just so... USELESS. The only vague importance it has is in differentiating between her and Bibi (Bibi mentions her "house" when Mizuki mentions her "apartment.") Why wouldn't Hitomi, her adoptive mother through Date, have her move in with her and Iris? Mizuki and Iris have always had a sibling relationship and it is just not touched upon. She and Hitomi have always had a mother-daughter relationship and it is just... not expanded upon. Hell, I think Hitomi and Bibi have a better on-screen relationship than them. Was Hitomi Bibi's teacher? Was Bibi Iris's, Amame's, and Kizuna's classmate? I don't know! Bibi's whole thing was wrapped up so quickly that it makes no sense. Hitomi caring for her when she got injured was sweet, but I feel like she should have had more interactions with Bibi, y'know, the one who is IDENTICAL TO HER ADOPTIVE DAUGHTER MIZUKI!?

So Sejima. He does one (1) good thing and that is ATTEMPT to be nice to Iris. He TRIES to own-up to his fuck up. And you know what? I actually really did enjoy that. Hate his guts. But somehow me loving Osiris (So as Iris) did make me like So more in general. Put the cat ears on old man! But yeah. He should have done more. And why is his sperm evil. How does he have multiple murderous children. That was a legitimately stupid writing choice. Like why So Sejima the bus driver all of the sudden.

Saito Sejima. I simply do not understand why they left Date with his appearance. I do not care that Saito's face was the more popular one and is more "iconic" for the character. It diminishes Date's growth and makes him shallow if the way they explain it in-game is that it was more popular with the ladies. Who cares. I at least would have wanted So to mention him, or for Uru to be compared to him. But no, he is basically irrelevant.

Mayumi. Irrelevant. And I am sadly glad that she was not in the game because she would have been written poorly. Love the fact that she becomes a mermaid. Rest in peace to her English VA.

Mama. Queen! Enough said.

Amame. Again, I just said I liked her. I really do. I truly do really like Amame. I just hate how EVERY FUCKING CHARACTER INTERACTS WITH HER. Gen? Was wholesome. Then it became absolutely stupid and destroyed my opinion of Gen's character. Kizuna? Basically irrelevant after Lien's introduction. Iris? The writers didn't give a shit about those two! Amame's arc was interesting and the twist with her was amazing. But the end was... wrapped up so illogically quickly and robotically that it just became "problem solved. the end." What, so she is just miserable now? I am glad that we will see her again in NSFKD (Horrible acronym. I am referring to No Sleep for Kaname Date) but her inclusion will probably just be useless info. Speaking of NSFKD. They're making aliens real, presumably reptilians. Just to... ridicule Iris some more? Again, they make the thing she was irrationally scared of in the first game real and now that she is the focus of the arc she is... in a bunny suit? Again she and Amame will likely barely interact and all it will be is fanservice galore. Show me Amame and Iris's personality and how they interact with one another. Hell, I want playable Iris. I really really so truly do. I want to see how she interacts with others and her internal dialogue. If she fakes her personality around Ota and if her airheadedness is a front. I would actually love playable Amame for the third game. Have us play through HER perspective as she gets out of jail. Have us read her internal monologue as she interacts with other characters. Is she angry about how they treated her? Is she happy to see them again? I just want the game to give me MORE about the characters they have established rather than making new characters whose purpose is to just die or help the protagonist in a task. The world feels dry, there is basically no interaction between characters only the protagonist and them.

In other words...

I dislike basically every portrayal in AINI. I am not saying that it was a bad game, I am just saying that in making the cast so much larger it diminishes basically every character. The twist of the game broke my immersion so badly that it genuinely upset me, but the mystery leading up to that point was interesting. But like I said before, the characters feel hollow. Bonds in the first game were broken in the second, and basically it feels as if things were stagnant during the six year time skip. There is... barely any growth in the characters behind the scenes. Serious issues are not taken seriously. Nice relationships turn romantic or fanservicey. It just... Aside from the mystery... there is no "story." There are barely "characters." In other words, my expectations for NSFKD are basically on the floor. They are non existent. I am not really that excited for the game.

me @ osiris aitsf: ok, time for your cat ears old man. say nyaaaaaa~

major AITSF spoilers on "SyokubAI"

For a recap, "SyokubAI" is when "Iris" is being interrogated for the murder of Renju. This is one of my favorite parts of the game, and it drives me crazy to think that they had the killer right there and could've potentially stopped him had they had more solid evidence. The thought of PSYNCIN' IN THE VaiN being more like PSYNCIN' IN THE REFRaiN (Boss's Somnium) is funny, "Iris" obviously would have gotten locked up immediately if "her" somnium contained memories of killing Shoko Nadami and Renju Okiura.

But the thought of "her" being thrown into Fuchu Prison with #89 is absolutely hilarious to me. Poor Hitomi is crying hysterically, absolutely terrified about what happened to both her love and her daughter. Meanwhile Saito and Rohan are in the prison cafeteria chatting and pissed off that they both got caught. To the outside eye it's Iris and Uncle reunited, but in reality it is both halves of the Original Cyclops Killer together again.

Well, technically Saito would have died (of ligma) of Iris's brain tumor shortly after, since canonically she dies of it in KekkAI on Wednesday Day 6. The media probably would've blamed the tumor on the whole "Idol turned Serial Killer" thing. But the thought of Saito being stuck as B-Set forever in prison is absolutely hilarious to me. Stuck in the body of the daughter of the woman he killed, the body being his half-sister. His next step would have been getting revenge on his father and killing him in her body, and he would have failed on achieving that sweet revenge, living the rest of his days as his sister.

Yet I have a feeling he would somehow break out with Rohan, swap with him, and manage to get to Date again anyway. I hate him. I want to see more of him.

Fluttershy and Kotori Minami have the same energy in how they are both really cutesy characters that the fandoms love to see act a little crazy sometimes

Umi: NO! I know you, you know me, I say “We are friends!!”

Kotori: Umi-chaaaaaaaaaan! Whyyyyyyyy~?

Rin and Nozomi: is this who the song was about??

Kotori: Umi-chan~ I heard people were shipping us <3 *wink*

Umi: TO WHERE!?

*Jack Black voice*: CHICKENNN FALINNNNN!!!!

cursed Kotori with no brim from the Love Live school idol diary manga

aitsf spoilers on both games regarding sejima family

The thought of So trying to be more fatherly to Iris because his other neglected kids became serial killers is absolutely hilarious to me. Like "oh shit I was such a bad dad that my kids started killing people I cannot fuck up with my last (known) child" and checks in on her every now and then to make sure she's not plotting anything. He's probably sweating trying to recall other women he may have had children with. So far 2 out of 3 kids are killers and that is a very bad record for him.

Like he checks in on her stream and she gets a little bit too violent in Fortnite and he's like oh fuck I have to leave town she's going to get me next.

I do think she should do a little murder as a treat though.

It would actually be hilarious if So is a witness to a murder in the third game and the killer tries to silence him, but in doing so they are killed by Iris. I can just imagine the awkward tension between So and Iris.

Iris, looking between the body and So: " A-are you ok Mr. Sejima?! I don't know what happened, I just saw that you were in danger a-and my body moved on its own and —"

So, internally: why does this keep happening to me...

Because We're Together

Kotori: The sweet potatoes Nozomi-chan and Honoka-chan shared with us the other day were really delicious, right? Umi: Yes, they were. I know they were a calorie bomb seeing as they're covered in butter and honey.... But I couldn't resist the temptation. Kotori: Fufu. You even went for seconds, huh, Umi-chan? Umi: But you did as well, Kotori! Kotori: Well, I can't hold back on delicious food, after all~ Umi: It's impressive how you manage to stay in shape, being like that.... Kotori: I laugh a lot when I'm with you and Honoka-chan, so that's probably where all of the calories went. Umi: Putting Honoka aside, what is there to laugh at when you're with me....? Kotori: Lots of things! But I won't tell you what they are ♪ Umi: Eh? Now I'm curious.... Please tell me about them, Kotori~!

[End transcription.]

KotoUmi is such a good ship because one would think that Umi was the more intense one but then 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂tori Minami pulls up and says she fantasizes about Umi failing at archery because she thinks it's attractive

sirensong sweep

Eli: but wait, h-how did you know I was gay?

Nozomi: Elichi, the garden was made of glass

it's a pretty standard hair style but I've just realized Umi Sonoda's hair matches Megurine Luka's and now I want to draw Umi in Luka's clothing but I lack the skill for it.

speaking of silly Love Live crossover fics, I want to write a NicoMaki crossover in the Dandadan universe and literally the only thing that I have planned is Maki getting telekinetic powers and Nico getting her pigtails stolen by Turbo Granny and the thought of it is so stupid but it has been making me laugh nonstop. She just looks so stupid without her pigtails.

very brainrotted on AITSF and Love Live at the moment and I kind of want to write a crossover one-shot of KotoUmi in the AITSF universe but I don't know if I should make them both psyncers or make one of them an AI-Ball. Psyncer Umi makes more sense than Psycher Kotori in this scenario but also how do I make them kiss if one of them is holographic.

Kotori: quick, Umi-chan, load the evolver!

Umi: Kotori she just works here I am not going to shoot the waitress!

Kotori: Umi-chan... please? She's acting awfully suspicious...

Umi: All she did was look at me..., you are way too jealous! Who programmed you... *sigh*

if parallel worlds exist in aitsf then I believe there is a world where Hitomi and Manaka raised Iris together. bc there is absolutely no way Hitomi didn't have a crush on her. and I am choosing to believe this as a means of coping with the doomed yuri.

liking a smaller character that isn't part of any major ship, especially if the fandom itself isn't particularly big, is such a struggle. I want to see more content of this character why do I have to do it myself why can't I infect everyone with my brainworms.

Here is a little promotion for my KotoUmi fic. It’s quite short but I have a couple of KotoUmi drafts that I am working on, although who knows when they’ll ever see the light of day. In this fic I wrote it through Kotori’s perspective and tried to lean a bit towards her characterization outside of the Love Live anime. In other words, I took a bit of inspiration from some of her “yandere-like” aspects that the writers toyed around with but never fully committed to. As mentioned in the notes of the fic, I do like the concept of “Yandere Kotori” in a comedic sense, but am overall glad that it was never confirmed in canon. I would certainly consider portraying her as such in a less serious fic, and honestly it would be a fun writing challenge for myself. Also as mentioned in the notes of this fic, the yandere character trope tends to stem from an exaggeration of BPD, which I then attempted to deconstruct and then present in a less distasteful way. Personally, I am unsure if I have BPD myself, but I hope that my portrayal of BPD in my fic was accurate or at least inoffensive. If anyone has any comments for my work, please feel free to leave it on the fic!

Please note that the fic has some negative self-talk and has some sudden intensely emotional tone shifts (in other words, “well, that escalated quickly”). Overall (spoiler alert), while this is mainly resolved by the end of the fic, this could be potentially triggering for some, so please keep your own boundaries in mind before you read.
