the institution of family
*poor punctuation/grammar, what are capital letters again? :) mention of divorce, dysfunctional view of family, might not make sense, i wrote this while trying to fall asleep, therefore not proofread as i fell asleep, see that makes sense doesn't it?
i have only seen the anime, but ouran has taught me so much about the meaning of family. as a child of divorced parents, even though i am blessed to have always been safe and loved, family has always been a confusing, and borderline negative term. familial pressures and societal views have no doubt shaped my view of the institution of family growing up. according to (segments of) society, there was a formula to a functional family, and mine didn’t quite fit the bill. according to (members of) my family, the things I did should be based on the preferences of (said members of) my family, and the stress i faced was only collateral damage for the happiness of (or maximum peace between) everyone else.
thus, i deduced that my family were merely people who felt a moral obligation to love me; whom i was bound to love in return because of my own moral obligations. I wasn’t satisfied with this answer, because if my family were merely people i was biologically related to, why are morals at play? the only explanation was that the term “family” meant obligations, expectations and responsibility. an obligation for your family to love you, and you them, an expectation to do what those who love you ask of you, and a responsibility to act in your family’s interest. familial love came with such strings attached. if that were the case, wouldn’t we all be better off without family? no strings attached, free to do as we please. it was harsh, but that’s how the world works, isn’t it? the only problem was that even I didn’t fully believe in this black and white world i created in my mind.
the high-society families in ouran matched my understanding of family perfectly. obligations, expectations, responsibility. the family that encapsulates this in its entirety is none other than the ootoris: kyoya, as the third born son — obligations — has to do more than his brothers to please his father, yet should not outshine his brothers — expectations. That would be overstepping his role. his father frowned upon his involvement in the host club — responsibility. He should have prioritised his family’s preferences over his own and acted in the interest of his family. he accepts the burden of being an ootori, just as I accepted my own loaded definition of family, until we met tamaki.
we need to talk about tamaki's decision to give himself the biggest rack
I think Tamaki would love Chappell Roan but he'd also be totally unaware that her music is gay. No one would tell him because it's funnier that way
Haruhi Ships And The Types Of Love
KaoHaru - Philia (Friendly love or bond)
HikaHaru or HaruhixTwins - Ludus (playful, flirtatious love)
HaniHaru - Storge (Familial Love)
Yes, I chose Storge for HaniHaru because I think they have more of a brother-sister type of relationship than a romantic one.
KyoHaru - Eros (Passionate love)
TamaHaru - Pragma (commited, long-lasting love)
same, princess ageha. i miss tono too
@pumpkinmetaphor ‘s Okay, Cupid!
im at chapter 6 and i am in love-love with kyokao’s dynamic this is so perfectly characterised and makes me want to cry tears of joy and longing
this gives a whole new meaning to “i just dont think i’m supporting cast, homosexual or otherwise” THAT KYOYA SAYS IN THE DUBBBB OMGGGG (beware the physical exam) im reduced to a teenage fangirl on her knees begging for more of this slow burn (which is SOOOO KYOKAO like cmon none of them want to be the first to admit anything)
“What are you saying?” Kyoya sighs. “I guess…” Haruhi mulls it over for a second before settling on, “I’ve always thought you were the kind of guy we should trust knows what he’s doing. But actually, you’re rather stupid.” It’s times like these that Kyoya wishes he still had a metaphorical stick of debt to threaten her with.
Okay, Cupid! Ch. 10 is out now! And something's gotta give. (Again.)
nope, they're much worse

T as in Tobio Kageyama
Atsumu: You're to me, what dumpsters are to raccoon.
Sakusa: Did you just call me fucking trash?
Atsumu: No! I'm trying to say you're my home.
Sakusa: THEN WHY WOULD YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT?
hi babycakes i LOVE!!!! your fics. every single one of them. and i’ve been thinking…
klepto!barty!!!! klepto!barty!!!!!
barty who just can’t resist taking those cute little bracelets reader wears!!!! barty who’ll steal the occasional polaroid photo from readers dorm!! barty whos not as sneaky as he seems to think… in regards both to his thieving and his feelings…
and you know what? i love YOU baby, thank you for sharing such a beautiful thought
klepto!barty is so real to me, very much in the same way that pyro!barty and compulsive liar!barty are so real to me
in general, i fully believe that barty has self-destructive coping mechanisms and impulse control issues. together, that creates a very spicy and spiky mental health and public persona.
however, it's so interesting to consider how those affect his relationship(s) -> familial, platonic or romantic
i believe he is all-or-nothing in how he loves, and that often involves becoming rather obsessive in both positive and negative ways
and this is at every stage in the relationship – prior, during and after (though the last one will never apply to us ofc...)
he will remember everything you ever tell him. your favourite colour? he wears it. favourite scent? he sprays it everywhere. best memories? he tries to recreate them.
and god forbid you ever rant to him about someone or something that annoys you, because he will fix it. in whatever way suitable.
so yeah, he is not good at hiding his feelings
i think that when he knows about his feelings himself he doesn't really try to hide them either though, he owns them (and you) loudly and proudly
but this boy has a THICK skull and wouldn't know before you two kiss honestly
everytime you walk together he slips something in or out of your purse/pocket/bookbag
slips in something he knows you might like, whether it's a trinket or a crystal for whimsy!reader or a new pen or ink for studious!reader
and he takes whatever feels the most like you, something that gives him that warm rush
like a bracelet, a hairtie, chapstick
(don't even get me started on the obsession he has with your chapstick and lipgloss or lipstick. very much a "i'm jealous of the rain that falls upon your skin" type of man)
in general, it's that rush he chases in everything in life – he needs to feel and he needs to do so intensely
barty was repressed and suppressed by his father for so long, that now if he gets the urge to scream at the top of his lungs, he cannot deign to deny himself that. it fosters chaos for sure, but it is also a quality that will allow you to experience radical comfort in a way you never thought you could.
when he takes something or does something he shouldn't have, it's like he can hear barriers and rules breaking around him like glass, and this little bitch loves it
he might even giggle especially if you enable him
this mf would not be above taking your journal and reading through it either – but he wouldn't even be sneaky or hide it then, he might even do it in front of you
barty always appears VERY comfortable in his own misdoings and chaos. he will just openly take the notebook from your bag, cross his legs and begin reading in front of you as you stare at him affronted.
you might say "excuse me?!" to which he furrows his brows in confusion and asks "what?"
when you become official, your closet is raided on the daily
no matter what house or dorm you're in. barty finds a way.
it is not uncommon for him to walk around in your jumper, but he much prefers when it's something more intimate and discreet that he can carry with him everywhere
like wearing your t-shirt or top beneath his school uniform – he loves knowing that it's there and it's yours and no one else knows
suffice it to say he never cleans your clothes before he takes them either; this is a man that's obsessed with pheromones
nsfw: he is without a doubt an underwear stealer, he hoards them away in his bedside drawer for when he misses you. and to just keep you close.
it's practical for you too, because there's always underwear ready for you at his place! no need to bring any yourself 🙃 end nsfw
he will wear your jewelry too, he absolutely loves seeing a piece of you on his skin
barty is for sure the type to get tattoos of and for his partner. again – all or fucking nothing. and with you, he always goes for all.
klepto!barty is so fun, but so is everything beneath it and what it represents 🤌 thanks for joining me in my brainrot
Tamaki/Kyoya/Haruhi: Because Haruhi deserves the black cat boyfriend and the golden retriever boyfriend
I drew Tamaki Suoh for fun ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
hii does anyone care about ohshc here I have awesome sketches
i enter a state of half crying (because i miss them) and half laughing (because im so happy to see them) whenever i see haikyuu art on my dash
“lol that’s not half as bad as your haikyuu phase”
phase? oh sure, it was a phase….
what's ur fav Fantastic Beast / magical creature
no, owls that deliver post don't count (and neither does crookshanks)
mine's nifflers 😁😁 they're so cute and i like shiny things too and they remind me of cats but also they act like a cat-dog hybrid (like a hyperactive cat)
"if you liked it then you should've put a ring on it" sounds like something a niffler would live by
From a darker timeline where there is no “miraculous ladybug” clean up power, and the heroes of Paris are just as wanted by law enforcement as Hawkmoth

Kyoya: This is Haruhi. Haruhi loves her personal space.
*Tamaki hugging Haruhi tightly*
Kyoya: This is Tamaki. Tamaki also loves Haruhi’s personal space.
mmmk it’s been long enough hi hi
shishishi. hello luka fans (included me) watching miraculous recently I couldn’t hold back and had to draw this beautiful little angel y'all don’t know how hellish it is to draw a guitar but i did my best :D 𝒑𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆 𝒅𝒐 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒓𝒆𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒎𝒚 𝒂𝒓𝒕, 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒌 𝒚𝒐𝒖 <3
A very rare Ouran post!
Tamaki helping Haruhi up, winking at her, and calling her "my little rookie" when he thinks Haruhi is still a guy...I know what you are.
Get me someone who looks at me the way Haruhi looks at Tamaki
Rewatching Ouran cause yes, and I like how Tamaki is smarter than he seems. Normally he's our favorite himbo who has the same iq as a bag of bricks, but he is pretty socially and emotionally smart. While he's oblivious to his feelings for Haruhi, it's hard to fault him for that, since that's due to his trauma. But in episode 2 of the anime, he was able to pick up the Princess Hanako was switching hosts to get Shima's attention. He also could tell the bitch from the 1st episode who's name I can't remember, lied about Haruhi attacking her and that she threw Haruhi's bag in the pond. He also has excellent grades according to the manga. And tends to be right, for the wrong reasons. Like when Haruhi got kidnapped in the manga. I really like Tamaki, he is best boy.
