One thing about the War in Ukraine I don't think Westerners really get is that from a local perspective... Russia has always been like that. I don't entirely know what purpose mentioning this may serve within the discussion... except maybe to point out that this war came as a surprise to no one in Eastern Europe, and that when we doubt the moral standing of the average Russian, we are deeply aware of how their worldview has been shaped for at least two centuries.
Because when Pushkin wrote his infamous poem against the Polish Uprising of 1830, he used very much the same arguments as the Russian literary scene today. None of this changes. And this is why nothing short of a complete restructuring of Russia could possibly allow for any kind of civil relations between it and its neighbours — if the blood that has already been spilled doesn't make it too late for this century.
BONTEN MAN AS PEOPLE I'VE ACCIDENTALLY (OR NOT SO) MET
────────。゚•┈୨♡୧┈• 。゚────────
TAKEOMI: the man who gives you thumbs up when you sing on the street
KOKO: the woman who gives you weird looks when you dance in the supermarket
MOCHI: the old woman you don't even know who gives you a lecture right on the street, because you bought a "bad" ice-cream (who cares, I like it even tho it's cheap and unhealthy)
SANZU: the barista I've met at a coffee shop and told her how pretty she is making her all flustered
KAKUCHO: the guy with long hair that randomly smiled at me on the street because i was smiling
MIKEY: people who give you a loud cheering after you danced and sang on a playground
RAN: the man who looked "weirdly" at my friend so I looked "weirdly" at him to make him feel as uncomfortable as he made my friend feel
RINDOU: that "little brother" of your friend who always tagged along with your friend group and was actually cooler than your friends

tokyo revengers reactions
genre: fluff
characters: mikey, mitsuya, ran, & rindou
you accidentally hit your arm against a table but paid it no mind. “what harm could it cause?” you thought. a few days later, you see a huge purple bruise forming and you begin panicking as you know how he would react. when he walked into the room one day, you quickly hid your arm behind your back, but you weren’t fast enough.
mikey ;
confused.
wouldn't know what to do besides bombard you with questions and comforting words
"are you okay? are you hurt? i'm here now, don't worry love!"
would hug you close to him, as if protecting you from the world
"please let me know next time, i don't want to be excluded from the things that happen to you. i want to protect you."
after a few seconds of silence,
"that's it. i'm childproofing the whole house."
when you tell him you aren't a child, "you seem way too similar to one. you need to be safe and protected at all times." and nods to himself, satisfied with his answer
"but- you're the actual child here, mister always needs a flag on his meal. go drink your milk, sweetie."
mitsuya ;
he'd calmly ask you what happened and question if you were getting bullied at school
will go momma bear if he finds out someone is bullying you
no one is, so he remains calm
would softly ask, "tell me what happened, how did you get hurt?"
when you tell him what happened, he'd scold you for being clumsy
but he'd comfort you and hug you
he'd playfully hit a table close by and scold it for hurting you just to make you smile and laugh
if it works on his two younger sisters, it'd work on you. and it did
smiles at you after hearing your laugh, "be careful next time, okay y/n? now the bruise is ruining your flawless skin" ):
"but it's okay, you're still beautiful."
ran ;
would worry and panic, but wouldn't really show it??
"where'd that monster on your arm come from? is someone bullying you? tell me and i'll go fight them right now."
you'd tell him no one's at fault and that you just accidentally smacked your arm against the table
he'd laugh when you tell him that and tease you for being clumsy
pouting, eyes tearing up, "this is what i was afraid of, you laughing at me"
he'd immediately stop and pull you into a hug
copying your pout, "aww im sorry, princess. i was just playing, forgive me?"
"it's okay to be clumsy. in fact, i think it's adorable. i love you, princess."
a few days later is when he'll bring it up and laugh about it again
rindou ;
"y/n?? what's that??" pointing at your arm
"it's a bruise, rindou. it forms when blood from the ruptured capillaries leak out under your skin and stays trapped in one spot."
would stare at you, unamused. "ok, smart alec. even i know that. i mean, how did you get it? you hit yourself against the table again, didn't you?"
to which you would shrug and explain it isn't your fault, it was an accident
he'd walk to the freezer to grab and ice pack for you, helping you ice the bruise
after a few minutes of silence, he'd start to laugh, shaking his head in amusement
you stare at him as if he's grown two heads, "i still can't believe you hurt yourself. again. you're so CLUMSY"
you flick his forehead exasperated, "listen here, you jellyfish- i knew i shouldn't have told you what happened."
thanks for reading ʕ•́ᴥ•̀ʔっ♡
reblogs/comments are appreciated!
when i say i’m from ukraine, people assume i live somewhere else now. when i say i live in ukraine, they assume i’m somehow immune to war, and there’s a logical division between a ukrainian they chat with on discord and a ukrainian on the news. bitches my yaoi is written from the bomb shelter
*slaps roof of car* this bad boy can fit so many tokyo rev memes in it you don’t even know
i still don't understand how comments and reblogs with comments work on tumblr......... either I'm too old, too young, or just dumb.........
I JUST REALISED I HAVE THE EXACT SAME EARRING ADULT CHIFUYU HAS
I was just browsing his pictures and the next thing I know is I see the exactly same thing I have lol
it was so random and funny to me that I wanted to share this little fun fact lol
AN: I love Bonten, and I wish we could have had more info about the organization. But I know how sad it must have been to everyone there. They were empty and no one accomplished their dreams. These are just my thoughts and headcanons about them <3
my masterlist!
- Ran doesn't sleep as much as he used to. In fact, he usually sleeps around 3 or 4 hours per night. The slightest sound makes his body be on full alert mode. The first thing he does when he wakes up is text Rindou.
- Kokonoi doesn't sleep. He can't. Sanzu gave him some pills so he could just take a nap for 1 hour but he refused. His nightmares are way too real and he knows if he closes his eyes, he will have one again.
- Rindou lives under Ran's apartment. They both decided that they wanted independence but still keeping the security of being close to each other. At first he thought that it was the best thing ever, but after getting inside of Bonten... it wasn't that great. (he sleeps in Ran's couch from time to time).
- Kakucho's apartment is completely empty. He doesn't need any decoration or extra furniture. His futon, a bathroom and a kitchen is all he needs. He doesn't even know who he is anymore, why decorate a bunch of white walls?
- Kokonoi lives close to a shop called D&D motors. What a coincidence.
- I said it before but Mochi is the only executive I can picture marrying someone (maybe it's because I don't know too much about him). He lives with his wife in a penthouse full of security cameras. Sometimes he can sense the sadness in his partner's eyes and thinks about leaving them so they can live a happy life. But now, they're fully into the criminal path in life, and there's no turning back. They know who they are.
- Sanzu doesn't have a daiy routine. Most of his days are a blur and he's only conscious after he kills someone. And its not because he's high all time, but because he disassociates a lot from reality. Sometimes he can't distinguish if something happens in real life or if it was all in his mind. Mikey slaps him in the face when he sees that he's not here, and Rindou brings him a glass of water and something to eat.
- Aside from Mochi, they don't have a love life. Sure they have fallen love or had a crush, but at the end of the day, they're still the same guys who have a sense of loyalty and will to protect who they love. So they chose to not commit to anyone. It's better that way.
- Rindou shared some nights with a woman some 5 years younger than him. She used to make him food and offer him to take some leftovers when he left. He realized he fell in love when he spent a whole night at her place cuddling and watching movies. He finally felt the same joy he did when he was 17. So after he left her apartment the next morning, he broke his phone so she wouldn't contact him again. And he never turned back.
- Kakucho used to frequent a bar in Tokyo because he had business to do with some big guys who owned the place. It was all going according to the plan. But then he saw a waitress being harassed by a man while he was having a conversation and he lost all the concentration. Excusing himself from the table, he went straight to the man and punched him in the face. The girl looked at him with teary eyes and thanked him a thousand times. After he returned to the table, he gave some extra money to the owners of the bar so they can free that girl from the job. He left the place after making the deal that Mikey ordered to him and never returned.
- Ran fell in love with a single mother and the moment he met her kid, he knew it was over. Either he left in that moment, or he stayed with them (and made their lives more complicated). He left an insanely amount of cash with them to pay everything until the kid was 18 and never looked back. Sometimes he lies awake at night wondering about what could have been.
- I'm sorry but Mikey is a virgin. I can't picture him having a high libido while being in such a depressing state.
- Sanzu... he's complicated. Sure he hooks up with some random people from time to time but he thinks he has never fallen in love. And if he did, he wasn't aware that was love.
- Kokonoi only sleeps with blond people. He searches for someone that's not here anymore, but maybe if he drinks more wine, he'll be able to see her face and hear her voice again.
- About their accidents and close to death experiences, they all care about each other in some kind of level. Mikey made clear that their interests come first, but they can't help it. So when someone is shot, even if they have to continue the mission, they know better than to leave them to die. (I don't think this applies to Takeomi tho)
- Rindou was once shot twice while he was on a mission with Kakucho and Kokonoi. They both knew they couldn't leave him to die. Kakucho threw his body over his shoulder and ran to the car while Kokonoi made sure no one was following them. They don't know how they did it, but Rindou arrived alive to the headquarters. Ran didn't speak that night. After he made sure Rindou will be okay, he went to see Kakucho and Koko and bowed his body as low as he could.
