Saiki projecting period pains onto toritsuka
i love giving characters ooc hcs yes saiki definitely reads fanfic he found ao3 through chiyo's thoughts and one day he got so bored he checked it out of curiosity and ended up obsessed with silent cyborg fanfics

Damn
headcanon that saikis friends drag him into their tiktoks and act as if hes some major celebrity they managed to convince into being a part of their tiktok and he is just standing in the middle of the frame when whoever is doing their little dance. like the man emoji. 'i cannot believe i managed to run into him!! and he agreed to be a part of my tiktok what an honour!!! <33 this was such a wonderful opportunity to meet someone you idolize and to also get a photo with him is a core memory' and all comments are confused. 'whats his name???' 'gurl give me his tiktok' 'uh i dont think i recognise this celebrity'
I think it always goes unsaid (thus forgotten) that in order to believe Stobotnik "matches" e/o's freak, as it were, Stone believes much of the same things Robotnik does. You need to understand people like Stone DO believe they're better than you. Worse than that; they're RIGHT.
They're BOTH psychopathic (they relish in the pain and suffering of others, especially those they deem subordinate or below them. Read: everyone.) but where Robotnik's psychopathy dips into narcissism, Stone's psychopathy dips into Machiavellianism. Kindness and empathy--at best, means nothing to him, and at worst, is deemed fucking stupid. He views others in a range of usefulness.
Stone is not a man without emotions, but they are separate, and they are considered bias in the long term achievement of goals. Sure he can ACT empathetic, that's easy. Being charming and acting sweet and kind it's easy. Crucially, to Stone, it is an important and useful manipulation tactic. Personally, I think the only person Stone has ever, and truly could love is Robotnik. On top of everything, Ivo GETS IT. Ivo is the only one Stone believes IS worthy of respect, who can put his money where his mouth is, every time, and does better than you can ever imagine. Ivo IS the pinnacle of success. And to not SEE this, in Stone's eyes, is fucking stupid. He genuinely, sincerely, from the bottom of his fucking heart and soul believes that being unable to SEE how powerful Ivo is STUPIDITY IN THE HIGHEST ORDER.
Emotions are an indulgence for Stone, and thats what his love for Ivo is. To choose and love Ivo--in Stone's eyes--is the one, selfish indulgence he ever lets himself have, regardless of any long term goals. You need to understand that Stone WANTS Ivo, and he fucking GETS what he wants, regardless of Ivo's opinion on the matter btw. This is pillar of Stone's character, to me. Which is why reading fics where Stone is kinder or more compassionate than this doesn't quite scratch the itch that I have about it
I really miss all the Kaidou and Saiki friendship moments in the manga they didn't put in the anime, like Kaidou's introduction or the one where they went to a convention together
Also, both chapters were so good, like Kaidous introduction was
Like ?? ,DUDDEE. man just renames him to junpei and goes along with it for the rest of the chapter
AND AND. It shows us Kaidou without his chuunibyou persona and who he really is
!!!! Like Jesus christ so different
THESE PAGES. MEAN. SO. MUCH. TO. ME. !!!!!!!!!!!
It shows Kaidou has faked and created the personality he has now only as a means to get people to like him, but people didn't, and he felt too trapped in his personality he never changed it
Dude doesn't give that much of a shit about the potential psychic he thought he saw, he's just playing up his excitement about it as a means to talk and be friends with saiki
He barely even CARES about his whole heroic persona and story, he just wants friendsss sosbbsssss
AND and ANDD
Saiki gives him the joy of being able to find the "creature" he was looking for, giving him an excuse to talk to and befriend saiki more, because saiki saw the fact he tried so hard to be his friend
LIKE EEEE3 BREROOOOOOOO. SAIKI WILLINGLY DOES THIS TO CHEER HIM UP.
"Another bothersome person has entered my life." Saiki, Kaidou was gently knocking on the door to your life and you SWUNG the door open willingly, what are you talking about
Kaidou clearly uses his powers as an excuse to have conversation, hell he even PLANS out what he wants to say to saiki beforehand
Real as hell Kaidou honestly real as hell
Anyway rant over i think kaidous character is a lot more than what meets the eye (but that's so with every saiki k character)
big fan of the star guardian
Saiki Motorcycle arc❗❗☺️
I got a new book a few days ago so I drew all of these guys (in one night) as a way to kick it off!!
Also this is how I learned the Tumblr mobile app doesn’t let you post more than 10 photos at once… I’ll post the rest in a repost.
