#UshiOiWeek2023 #Superheroes #UshiOi
Happy UshiOi week! I’m mixing prompts and days but it is what it is.
This is a snippet based on the Venture Brothers where villains essentially are unionized and are assigned superheroes to be their archnemesis based on skill level/resources. If you haven’t watched Venture Brothers, you should give it a try!
______
Oikawa who wanted to be the hero, but ended up as a villain instead, joins the Guild of Calamitous Intent and has every intention to arch his old colleague who took over his position, Kageyama.
He’s deemed too low-level to arch Kageyama, that position ends up going to Atsumu, and instead ends up having to arch a small-scale agricultural scientist Ushijima instead.
Even with his team of henchmen, nothing goes as planned when going against Ushijima. Sometimes Ushiwaka doesn’t even notice or acknowledge the arching happening, or it inadvertently helps him with a break-through, and Ushijima ends up not taking their nemesis status seriously.
Oikawa blames the man’s red-headed best friend who keeps putting romantic notions in Ushiwaka’s head. Clearly Oikawa is not flirting! He takes his job very seriously!
He’s determined to do something big, something to bump his ranking up allowing him to arch his real, and very personal, adversary. He decides on creating a toxin that will target Ushijima’s plants, and he’s successful. He’s long perfected his evil laugh, and he does just that as Ushijima takes in the sigjt of his destroyed greenhouse. His laughter dies down when he notices that there are no threats of revenge, curses or retaliation. Instead he sees the look of utter despair and sadness on the other man’s face.
“They were…my friends,” he mumbles quietly. Oikawa feels terrible, he went too far, did not know the extent of attachment Ushijima had to these plants.
“But it’s what you wanted, right?” His favorite henchman Iwazumi says. “With this you’ll be able to work in the big leagues.”
This isn’t what he wanted, not at the cost of this pain in his nemesis’ eyes.
“The antedote, get me the antedote.”
“But, you’ll loose your cred,” Iwa-chan hesitates before Oikawa rips the antedote himself from his number 4’s hands. He quickly releases it into the greenhouse, and the plants slowly revive.
He slowly approches Ushijima and lays a hand on his shoulder. “I am so sorry, I shouldn’t have done that to you.”
“You saved them,” He states simply. “Even at the cost of your dreams?”
“There’s always next time.”
Oikawa is gentler to his arch after that, and hope builds in Ushijima.
“Are you planning anything for this weekend?” He asks one day.
“Ha! I’ll never tell you, gotta keep you on your toes!”
“If you are free, would you like to go on a date with me?” Oikawa blushingly agrees.
It’s not long after their first date that Oikawa puts in a transfer request, afterall you can’t arch your partner! Oikawa does make sure to continue to stop by the lab though, if only to drop off Ushijima his lunch. He always gets a kiss goodbye as he heads out for his daily arching against Date Tech’s obnoxious Iron Wall.
“Be careful at work, love.” Ushijima says with one final kiss to Oikawa’s cheek.
“Of course, pookie! See you for dinner!”
Kuroo doesn’t consider himself old, he’s not even thirty yet, but he’s OLD old when it comes to technology. He likes to blame his ineptitude on a combination of him being raised by his grandparents and relying on Kenma to help him out when necessary.
His best friend had only just introduced him to TikTok, and for once this is a social media Kuroo can get behind. He quickly makes the JVL an account and makes content out of volleyball clips to fitting music. He’s having a blast, even if Kenma says he’s about a year late in all his music choices.
Eventually he makes his own personal account, and immediately starts posting videos of Kenma with the most ridiculous filters on him, Being that Kenma is so popular, and obviously would never post such content himself, his personal account becomes a hit.
People in the comments keep asking him to prank his best friend, but honestly Kuroo isn’t a fan of a majority of the “pranks” he sees online. They all seem too mean spirited, and he cares about his friend too much to pull a stunt that would hurt his feelings just for the views.
He’s lamenting about the non-stop requests to Bokuto who comes up with a solution.
“Why not just pull a nice prank? Like, leave little messages or something around the house and see if you can catch his reaction?”
It really is a great idea, and Kuroo is quick to set it up.
The first note does not go over well. Kenma found the note and actually called him. Not texted, CALLED him.
“What is this?”
“What is what?”
“This note you left me, what is this?”
“I figured my best friend just needed a reminder of how great he is!”
“Hmm. Suspicious.”
“It’s not suspicious!”
“It is.”
“Not!”
“Hmm. I’m hanging up now.”
The second note was met again with some resistance, but less suspicion. Kuroo gets a text at work.
‘Why are you leaving notes? You could just text me this.’
‘More fun for us both!’
The third note Kenma doesn’t acknowledge receiving, but when Kuroo asks him about it, Kenma blushes a bit and says that he read it. Huh.
The fourth note has Kenma blushing when he sees him next. BLUSHING! He’d only ever seen Kenma that red when he got sunburnt at the beach when they went to Okinawa a few years ago.
He decides it may be time to pull the nanny cam for footage on the reactions, if they’re good, he’ll have Fukunaga help him edit it down to a quick video for TikTok.
He watches the video, and predictably Kenma’s face gets all scrunched up in disgust and disbelief at the first note. It’s cute, definitely one of his favorite reactions. He can hear Kenma grumble ‘the fuck’ to himself before he’s pulling out his phone to call Kuroo.
The second note is met with less visible disgust, but more unintelligible mumbling. Again he takes out his phone to message Kuroo. He can see Kenma roll his eyes at the response and pocket the little note as he walks out of frame.
The third note has Kenma yelling out ‘Oh, come on!’ before he pulls out his phone to call someone. Strange, because he doesn’t remember Kenma trying to call him after this note. He doesn’t have to wonder who he’s calling because Kenma greets the person with a loud, ‘He’s driving me crazy Shohei’ before once again walking out of frame.
Huh. Were the notes that bad? He thought Kenma was enjoying them. Kuroo skips forward to the last note.
The fourth and final note was his sweetest one by a long shot, and this one is met with a blush and a groan from Kenma.
‘Ugh, when is he just going to ask me out already? Why did I have to fall in love with a sweet idiot.’
Ah. Well, this idea is now useless for his TikTok channel. One more note, he decides, one more note and no more hidden cameras.
The last note he doesn’t leave in his usual spot on the counter, instead when he lets himself in around noon, he leaves it on Kenma’s phone. He waits for his friend to wake up in his kitchen with a freshly made apple pie in the oven.
When Kenma eventually wakes up, he comes to the kitchen holding up the note.
“Do you mean it?”
“Yes.”
“Ok then.”
Kenma grabs a fork and shoves a big bite of pie into his mouth.
“I didn’t brush my teeth,” he says around his mouthfull.
“Ok?”
With a final swallow, Kenma slams down his fork and pulls Kuroo down into a kiss.
It’s sweet.
When they pull away Kenma goes back for another bite, and Kuroo can’t help but smile.
“Is that a yes then?”
“Yes.”
“You’re not going to say it out loud?”
“Not like you did either.”
Kuroo chuckles, “Fine. You wanna be my boyfriend?”
“Yup, sounds good to me.” Kenma scoops up his plate and heads back to his room. He looks back over at Kuroo, “Well come on, I’m still sleepy and as my new boyfriend it’s your job to cuddle me.”
“Ah, what a rough job I’ve landed, but no pie in the bed.”
“No, this pie is coming to bed.”
“You can’t eat pie in the bed! Think of the crumbs!’
“I’m going to eat it all, there won’t be any!”
“This is how you get ants, Kenma. Do you want ants in your bed?”
“We’re not going to get ants in the bed.”
“We will!”
“Will not.”
“I can’t believe our first argument as a couple is over ants in the bed.”
“Mmm. It’s nice.”
“Yeah, it is.”
Kuroo and Kenma have been in this weird sort of in-between of Dating/Not-Dating. They act like a couple, but never really talked about it or made it “official.” After watching Kruoo struggle to answer his co-worker’s simple question of “Oh, is this your boyfriend?” Kenma thinks that this has gone on long enough.
“Thank you both for coming here, I hope the journey wasn’t too much of a hassle.”
“Kenma, I practically live here and you literally bought Hinata a first-class ticket to Tokyo for this. What is going on?”
“Ah yes, the agenda for today’s meeting is to discuss your promotions.”
“Cool! Not really sure how I can get a promotion when I don’t even work for you, but sounds fun!”
“Yes, that enthusiasm is exactly how you earned this promotion.” Kenma pulls out what looks like name plaques from his hoodie. “Congratulations, Hinata, you’ve been promoted to the position of my Best Friend.” Kenma hands him the first plaque, neatly inscribed with “Hinata Shoyo - Best Friend” on it.
“YES!”
“Hey! I thought I was your best friend!”
“You had a good run, Kuro. Truly you have been the best best friend I could have ever asked for. You’ve been so good, infact, that you earned you own promotion, should you choose to accept.” Kenma slides the remaining plaque over to Kuroo, the inscription of “Kuroo Tetsuro - Fiancé” making Kuroo’s mouth drop.
“Now, I realise we’re skipping a few steps, but I figured this would make up for the delay of a promotion. Do you accept?”
Kuroo is a sobbing mess, nodding his head ‘yes’ and not noticing that Hinata had taken out a camera to snap photos.
“Great, well with that promotion comes this,” Kenma says with a smile and a few tears in his eyes as he places an open ring box on the kotatsu. “And of course there is a stipulation that you will move in full time.”
Kuroo laughs through his tears, “I think I can manage that.”
“Great. I love you.”
“Love you, too.”
Day 1: Love Notes
Kenma has never been a big eater, and most times comes home with left-over food in his bento, so the first time he doesn’t is a bit of a shock.
“Kenma did you eat all your food?” She can’t help but feel a bit incredulous. He’s a few months into his first year at high school, a bit more talkative compared to when he was younger, but he still shifts a bit and looks away before responding.
“No.”
“That’s ok, what happened to the rest of it?”
“I gave it to Kuroo.”
“You did? That was nice of you to share, but you know it’s supposed to be all for you, yes?”
“You always pack too much, and Kuro was hungry. He only ever eats bread.”
“Well, I guess it is tough when it’s just him and his dad now. Maybe we should help out?”
“We?”
“It’s about time you start making your own lunches now, and since you’re so worried, you can make a bento for Kuroo-kun as well.” This is met with much grumbling from her son, but the next morning finds her bleary-eyed son with her in the kitchen.
They work together quietly and efficiently, making the bentos for not only the boys but her husband as well. They’ve just finished up and about to wrap everything up when Kenma catches her sneaking a piece of paper into his dad’s lunch.
“What was that?”
“Just a little note for your dad,” she says as she finishes tying up the furoshiki.
“…you write Dad notes?”
“Of course, it’s nice, and he really likes them.”
“You don’t leave me notes,” She can’t help but giggle at her son’s pout.
“I was afraid that they wouldn’t be appreciated now that you’re in high school and all,” she gives him a peck on the check before continuing, “but I would love to add a note for you if you want one.”
Kenma hums in agreement, “Nothing too sappy though.”
She can’t help but laugh, “Course not, nothing too sappy for my little grumpy cat.” She playful squeezes his cheeks before grabbing another sticky note for his lunch.
“What about Kuro?”
“Wouldn’t it mean more coming from you? You did make him his lunch.”
“Mom, please, that would be embarrassing.”
“Fine, fine, all my boys will get a note from Mom.”
She quickly scribbles a message for each teen and tucks it in before Kenma can see what she wrote.
“Now off you go, I’m sure Kuro-kun is waiting for you.”
“Thanks, Mom.”
________________________________
It had been slightly embarrassing giving Kuro his bento outside the house, but he thinks he was able to play it off as “no big deal.” And he did make Kuro swear on his life to not gloat about it in front of anyone at school.
Later as they sat together to eat their lunches, Kenma pulled out the note from his mom, a mildly embarrassing ‘I’m so proud of you.’ He was softly smiling to himself when Kuro all but choked on his food at his note.
“What? What is it?”
“Nothing, nothing, just wasn’t expecting a note from your mom.”
“Uh-huh. Let me see it,” he swiped it out from Kuroo’s hand before he could pull it away. ‘You’re truly loved Kuroo-kun, treasure him’.
Kenma all but screeched at the message.
“I’ll be honest, of all the ways I expected getting a love note from you, I never thought it would be written for you by your mom.”
“Wha- why would I write you a love note?”
“Cause, you love me.”
“Do not.”
“Do too.”
“I don’t.” Kenma looked down to allow his hair to cover his blush.
“You do,” Kuro pushes his hair behind his ear, and taps his chin to make Kenma look at him. “Tomorrow, will you write it instead?”
“Ok.”
Cats 🐈 🐈⬛
Bokuto getting injured, and having to take a month off to recover- decides to do his pt in Tokyo, and crash at his boyfriend Akaashi’s house. With him he brings the mangy street cat he forcibly adopted from a dumpster, Kuroo. Akaashi isn’t thrilled- he already has a cat of his own, a spoiled, pampered, rare male calico named Kenma. He’s nervous about them getting along, and it was a little touchy at first- Kuroo was quick to take a liking to Kenma, but Kenma took a bit longer to come around to the larger black cat.
Soon enough, they’re thick as thieves. Akaashi is baraged with photos of them cuddling together, grooming eachother, and one video of Kuroo bringing Kenma a gift of a dead mouse that Akaashi quickly begs Bokuto to get rid of.
Then, they start getting a little too close. Kenma is acting weird, shoving his butt into Kuroo’s face and yowling at him.
“I’ve never seen them cuddle like this before” Bokuto captions a video of what is clearly Kuroo mounting Kenma. Akaashi is spiralling; can cats be gay? Why was Kenma acting like that? Kuroo he gets, the bastard pain in his ass will hump anything and everything. But he was assured Kenma was a rare calico male, the breeder said so when he got him a few months ago. He just said he’d have to wait a few weeks for the balls to drop. How long was that again?
A quick trip to the vet confirms it, he had misgendered his damn cat. Now they’re expecting kittens.
“I’m too young to be a grandpa, Akaashi!”
I LOVE ONE BABY 🥺✨🥺
🥺✨🥺

Arya Stark Fancast Resource
So I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve been having a hard time finding age-appropriate actors in period costumes when trying to create any content that doesn’t feature the actors from the show (not that I don’t love them all, just sometimes a change of pace is nice). That’s particularly true for characters whose book and show counterparts are significantly different in age. I thought I’d start putting together some resources for fancasts that are reasonably accurate to book descriptions, particularly after I saw the incredible Sansa Stark resource put together by BookSansaDaily.
So yeah, let’s start with Arya:
“Nine years old at the start of A Game of Thrones, Arya’s appearance is more Stark than Tully, with a long face, grey eyes, and brown hair. She is skinny and athletic. She is generally regarded as plain, as exemplified by a nickname “Arya Horseface”, and is often mistaken for a boy.” (x)
RAFFEY CASSIDY - YOUNG SNOW WHITE (SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN)
Raffey Cassidy was roughly 9 years old when filming Snow White and the Huntsman. The costume design is appropriately medieval, and I’ve found it a particularly good resource because of the number of clips where Raffey looks disheveled and/or tomboyish. Best for AGOT and pre-ASOIAF content.
ANNA MAGUIRE - YOUNG DANIELLE (EVER AFTER: A CINDERELLA STORY)
I can’t find an accurate birthday for Anna Maguire, but given that she played a 9-year-old character two years after this film, I feel confident placing her at 7-10 during the filming of Ever After. The film is set in the Renaissance rather than the Middle Ages, but Danielle’s clothes are still reasonably appropriate. As with Snow White and the Huntsman, this is a good resource for both AGOT and pre-ASOIAF content, especially since it contains footage of Anna Maguire looking both put together and covered in mud. She’s not as long-faced as Arya should be, but she’s got the appropriate mischievous energy.
IVANA BAQUERO - OFELIA (PAN’S LABYRINTH)
Pan’s Labyrinth is set in the 1940s, well outside appropriate ASOIAF timeframes, so Ivana Baquero is best used for stills and closeups. However, the scene in which she faces the toad (pictures 1 and 4 here) has her filthy and in reasonably time-neutral underclothes, so I’ve found it useful before for the period when Arya’s on the run with the Night’s Watch or the Brotherhood. Ivana was 11 when filming, so that puts her at a more appropriate age for later novels.
ANUK STEFFAN - HEIDI (HEIDI)
Again, not a period-appropriate film, but Heidi does spend a significant amount of it running around in an undershirt, so that’s useful for taking it out of time a bit. Anuk Steffan was 10 when filming, and this movie has the added benefit of portraying her with both long and short hair, which makes it particularly ideal for content portraying both Arya Stark and Arry the Orphan. She even occasionally runs around in boys’ clothing, albeit 19th century boys’ clothing.
A FEW OTHERS
1. ARABELLA MORTON - GAEL (THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER): Arabella was 10 when filming the third Narnia movie. She doesn’t have a ton of footage, but there’s some material between her and her onscreen father that’s potentially useful for Arya and Ned, and she’s got a mischievous spirit that feels very Arya to me.
2. UNKNOWN ACTOR - YOUNG SOPHIA/ZOE (SOPHIA): I’m not sure who this actor is (if you know, please tell me!) but she plays Young Sophia/Zoe in the Russian series Sophia. Based on her height, she’s significantly older than Arya, and she only appears in one sequence, which can be found here. However, I think her face is uncommonly perfect for Arya, so I’ve used her both for gifs and for stills.
3. HARRY STOTT - LUPUS (ROMAN MYSTERIES): Harry Stott was 11-12 when filming the TV series Roman Mysteries. He’s a useful resource when fancasting Arya in disguise as Arry, particularly in the Season 2 episode titled “The Fugitive from Corinth,” where he wears the brown traveling cloak you can sort of see in the picture above.
4. TOM TAYLOR - YOUNG UHTRED (THE LAST KINGDOM): Another good Arry fancast. Tom Taylor was 13ish when filming the first season of The Last Kingdom, which has particularly good cold weather, fur-based fashion. Heads up that the character of Young Uhtred was recast for later seasons, and the other kid looks much less like Arya.
Anyway, I hope this is useful, and feel free to add any additional actors you like to cast as Arya! I’m planning to make several of these for different characters; the full set can be found here once I’ve made more.
Arya: OMG you’re so tall, you look like a giraffe
Sandor: Mhmm that’s why you dead built like a baked bean
Arya: A BAKE- A BAKED BEAN?!?
*throat punches him*
Arya: BAKE BEAN THAT! BAKE BEAN THAT!!

Not now, Satan
Reminder for today:
You should go out.
You should see the world.

Atena Farghadani is a 28-year-old Iranian artist. She was recently sentenced to 12 years and 9 months in prison for drawing a cartoon.
This cartoon, that she posted on her Facebook page last year, depicts members of the Iranian parliament as animals. It was drawn in protest of new legislature in Iran that will restrict access to contraception and criminalise voluntary sterilisation. Atena’s charges include ‘spreading propaganda against the system’ and ‘insulting members of parliament through paintings’.
Last August, 12 members of the elite Revolutionary Guard came to Atena’s house, blindfolded her and took her to the infamous Evin Prison in Tehran. According to Amnesty International:
“While in prison last year, Atena flattened paper cups to use them as a surface to paint on. When the prison guards realised what she had been doing, they confiscated her paintings and stopped giving her paper cups. When Atena found some cups in the bathroom, she smuggled them into her cell. Soon after, she was beaten by prison guards, when she refused to strip naked for a full body search. Atena says that they knew about her taking the cups because they had installed cameras in the toilet and bathroom facilities – cameras detainees had been told were not operating.”
She was released in November and gave media interviews and posted a video on YouTube detailing her beatings, constant interrogations and humiliating body searches. She was then rearrested possibly in retaliation for speaking out and has been imprisoned ever since. In January, Atena went on a hunger strike to protest the horrible prison conditions. Her health suffered dramatically, and after losing consciousness and suffering a heart attack in February, she was forced to eat again.
The quote used in the comic is taken from the speech Atena gave at her trial. It has been translated into English by the Free Atena Facebook page. You can read the whole thing here.
Time is now against her, she has just two weeks to lodge an appeal. Michael Cavna, comic journalist for The Washington Post, has launched a campaign appealing to artists to help bring awareness to Atena’s case by creating their own artwork in support of Atena and using the hashtag#Draw4Atena. Can a bunch of artists and a hashtag really make a difference and put pressure on the Iranian Government to release Atena? Probably not. But just remember that Atena is currently in prison enduring horrible conditions, and if her appeal isn’t successful, she will be there for another twelve years. FOR DRAWING A CARTOON AND POSTING IT ON FACEBOOK. Don’t we owe it to her to at least try?
Alot worse actually happens out there.. once Being a soldier (which turned me into an activist) showed me..
