DAY TWO - FLOWERS/PHOTO TOGETHER
“They usually mean good luck and fortune, and white lilies are often used at weddings and funerals, aren’t they?
I like to think those two things coincide with each other.”
this was MEANT to be a photo but i dont think i got that point across well in my drawingHELPWJWHHS. OOPS!
little bonus hajime i did for warmup
Lots of thoughts recently. Everything feels plastic.
I could go on and on about why all that AI "art" is bad. I could mention theft, lack of creativity, it's impact on the work field and environment, but countless people have already said all that. I wanted to touch on something that to me is the most utterly wrong about all of it.
Art is more than just something pretty to look at or listen to. It's therapeutic. It's a form of communication. A tool for human connection. It's a pure, human need.

as if…
im new to the tadc fandom and im not sure what the popular ships are (I do know about the horrid shipping wars tho lmfao) but my fav is obviously kinger x queenie but as for the fanon ones, zooble x gangler SLAPS!! they are so wholesome and cute and hrrrrrrggghhhh I haven't seen a lot of people talk about it and I NEED to see more and a close third would be pomni x gummigoo and ik ik 'theyre a trauma bond and they don't actually blah blah blah' but I just know in an au they would just be living together peacefully having their occasional advent— well idk what's another word that would be more appropriate... another could say 'but gummigoo is a npc BLAH BLAH' IDC, NONSENSE! they are cute and I stand by it. a close fourth ship I sorta like would be........ very far from the ones I listed; ragatha x jax tho I don't really see them being in a healthy happy loving relationship like MAYBE. I imagine them as those divorced couples that lasted like a year, a good comparison to it would be the dead husband and ghost wife from the story in ep 3, like if I say I ship ragatha x jax I mean it in that way. I know they care about each other in their own...special... way. also the age gap is an ick honestly they just don't work well together realistically but shipping doesn't make any sense anyway
I hate having banger fanfic ideas. What do you expect me to do? Write it down????????????
happy birthday @prasidice ……., For you
okay so I wanted to update this bc I had another idea (thanks to @/sakuraswifee's theory!!!! you can read it first to understand this better) that train to the far shore mention really got me TRIPPIN. it is so good.
anyways, so long story short, yk one of the reasons kou wants to be an exorcist is to help nene with her lifespan, and also for hanako and his brother BUT he doesn't even mention mitsuba, anything about him to his brother which is sorta telling especially since hes trying really hard to figure out how to help him become human.
and yk what's MORE telling? he ignores his brother's worried texts in favor of being with mitsuba. HHHHHHHUUUUUMMMM
but if we look here at the clock keepers arc, kou aged, which is a total contradiction for the mtsk dying together yk
ANOTHER BUT. tsuchigomori said that there was one kid who changed his future (amane/hanako) and it's not revealed how, and depending on what it entails, it could give this theory credibility or crash it down
and we have no backstory on why yashiro manages to be able to break yorishiros other than bc she's a kannagi (like is her family ancestry's kannagi too?) but it's the reason aoi and her managed to switch lifespans because aoi's a kannagi too, and..... the minamoto clan... aren't kannagis...but they still concern supernatural stuff.
so are you picking up what im putting down rn? yep thats right!!!! it's a hard decision for kou to make but he did say he'll always be on nene's side :') and he even defied his own brother for it...he's so sweet ..
yashiro wouldnt want kou to sacrifice himself but then again it's his choice to literally agree to run away with mitsuba and basically just died with him
NENE AND KOU MAAAAY EXCHANGE LIFESPANS!!! so if not yorishiro HE WILL DIE WITH HIM
that's it for my yap session remember this is just me being delusional RAAAAAAHHH THIS IS REAL THIS IS REAL IN MY HEARTT
mitsukou has been lowkey eating my brain (once again) and this will probably sound stupid blabbering but im gonna try to make myself sound convincing. and in my defense this was just a random thought that popped up on my mind.
what if the thing about natsuhiko saying the way for a human to become a supernatural is to become a yorishiro? I mean think about it, what else is sumire other than a supernatural? If she just died normally instead of becoming a yorishiro she would've ended up disappearing along with other girls under the red house.
at first, I thought natsuhiko planned on saying it to kou so it could trigger something but he looks surprised here so I doubt it now but there's still a possibility
i think his face reads as "ooooh an unexpected reaction but I'll take it"
even if he was really mean that time he probably really did care about mitsuba someway and was hoping for him to make kou his yorishiro
AAAND another reach maybe that's why kou asked him out on a date (other than just wanting to hang out with him, ofc) like so he could maybe get more important to mitsuba and make him his yorishiro!
and get this, if he becomes mitsuba's yorishiro, nene LITERALLY wouldn't be able to destroy him at all, thus allowing her to live!!!! two birds with one stone, if you will
(but you could say then 'wouldn't the broadcasting trio not like that?' which is true but they did they'll do ANYTHING to make yashiro destroy every yorishiro, possibly by threatening her and especially looking at the sumire incident she wouldn't want that to happen again AND THE LOWKEY PARALLELS OF WHAT HAPPENED WITH SUMIRE AND HAKUBO WITH THE MITSUKOU CHAPTER. (with the cannibalism and all))
and it could be another reason why kou was so shocked at him when he asked to be exorcised (cough instead of making him his yorishiro cough)
BUUUUUT that is just inherent yapping so that's that. just wanted to get my silly ramblings out there pls dont take it too seriously thank u.
I will be talking about how there's much more to the Clock Keepers and how they are an active danger to everyone else, and and an even more terrible threat than even the pit god, at that.
For an introduction, Akane agrees: The biggest threat to the students are the Clock Keepers. But it's a much bigger threat that anyone would expect.
This arc is about the Clock Keepers changing the timeline that we know of into a new one, everything has gone wrong and Nene is the only one left.
But it would seem it goes much deeper than that. After all, the timeline we know of isn't even the original one.
For starters, Akane explains that while there are some who are able to regain their memories of the 'Old World', they would be rewritten with memories of the 'New World'. It's specific for 3 days due to the Festival being 3 days long, an event where the timeflow becomes unstable.
During the Festival Season of 1968, Yugi Amane attempts to get the clock moving so he can manipulate time, and Hanako states that he HAD to get it moving until the end of the School Festival, but he can't remember anything about the clock.
Sounds familiar?
To get to the point, Yugi Amane of 1968 had the memories of a 'previous world', and tried to fix the clock so he can go back. But he failed to do so, and, as a result, forgot everything about the clock.
Until Chapter 124, this is also seemingly supported by Teru and Akane.
Even if they may not be aware, their impressions are right. It's extremely unlikely that this is the first time the Clock Keepers altered time, like playing 'God'.
But now, it's even further confirmed by Chapter 124.
The past has indeed been changed several times. But why do so many people have to suffer in this way, have their souls cut and forever bound to the Boundary, some even going crazy as a result. In a way, it sounds like something the pit god would do, isn't it?
But *why* would the Clock Keepers do that? There's an easy answer. They need to bend the rules. At first glance, the Clock Keepers seem overpowered, unbeatable. They can seemingly turn back time on a whim with no repercussions- But we know for a fact that's not true.
After all, Shijima herself states it. Each Boundary of the School Mystery is bound by rules. Mysteries can't just do whatever they like- There are rules they have to respect. Especially when it comes to such an overpowered ability like messing with time, there has to be a major weakness or price to pay for it, a drawback that Kako discovered how to circumvent. Such an overpowered ability, unregulated? No way.
After all, it's not only the Clock Keepers' servants that are clockwork dolls, they themselves are also clockwork dolls.
Kako cutting up souls everytime the past is changed is not a coincidence. It's so he can have someone else pay for the price of altering time.
Wouldn't that be why Kako decided to travel to 1968, to the time he would find a 12 year old who is so desperate to turn back time?
After all, it's so much easier to find a human willing to pay the price in your stead. Especially if it's a child motivated by desperation. For every timeline change, someone has to sacrifice something. But Kako had found an easier way: Just sacrifice someone else.
Some are able to accept reality as it is and just dutifully abide by the Clock Keepers' rules as their masters, like the cat, and some don't and end up crazy, like the broken doll. Whether from the past, future or another world, they're all the same- They all used to be humans.
This cruel practice is so Kako is freely able to play 'God' without worrying about the rules every mystery has to abide to, and it's even solidified by the victims who can't recall the circumstances themselves. It's a practice that, if revealed, exposes the Clock Keepers' limits.
Why do you think Kako had asked Akane to stay alive until they wake up? Because if all else failed, the Clock Keepers would be able to exchange Akane's soul to turn back time once more. It's literally Akane that's a safety net, not just the Yorishiro.
Wouldn't that also explain why the position of the Clock Keeper of the Present is vacant and only filled by humans?
Why was that position vacant until they found Akane, a boy who similarly wanted the power to control time? The "Clock Keeper of the Present" is simply a disposable asset.
But now, Kako messed up big time. He used time as his playground to attempt to get rid of an actual God, one who now is aware of the danger the Clock poses.
The consequences for this will be lethal for the Clock Keepers, ones who treat time and lives so lightly, and karmic retribution will come swiftly.
As final words, it would seem that Nene finding the truth behind the dolls behind finding Kako is done on purpose so she cannot fall in the Clock Keepers' trap and play her cards right.
Kako will not be able to get away with treating this world as his personal playground.
