Do You Ship Nanami X Gojo. I Think They Have A Lot Of Appeal

I am dead.

I am completely normal about this

We’re going to get the ending of X after all. This was all part of CLAMP’s master plan, I’m sure of it.

New Lovesickness update, new meme.

hi! i love everything you've ever written ever - your naruto fic was so moving it made me reread the whole series bc it's been so long and i didn't remember half of the characters and then i realized YOU should've been writing naruto from the jump. i love your characterizations, espescially for for your jujutsu kaisen fics. i don't think there's anyone else who's landed on how sweetly sickening sashisu is ... would you ever write them romantically? or even just suguru and shoko? just wondering!!

Gosh, I have written so many Naruto stories that I judge myself lol. Lovesickness is the most recent one, so I assume that's the one you're referencing? The power I would have if I could turn that specific story into a manga! It's probably my favorite.

Thank you for your sweet compliments about my writing! I've started reading Naruto and am a third of the way into the series (I watched the anime and fell off right before Five Kage Summit), and honestly, I couldn't have written it. I don't have the vision that Kishimoto had. However, I will gladly write fan fics about Naruto, especially the older jounin!

I have written too many Jujutsu Kaisen stories. The people in the GetoHime tag must be sick of me! I hint at past SaShiSu in Fathers and Mothers and Daughters and Sons, in the fourth and fifth chapters. I love writing about SaShiSu as friends, since they were totally the kids who played car accident, but I don't know if I could do a poly story justice. SuguShoko is a ship I have thought about, but idk, I kinda want to just focus on stories set in other fandoms. You have planted a seed though.

Thank you so much for reading my stories and leaving me such a sweet message <3

hi! i really love your writing and especially your “consider the shark jumped” series! do you have any plans on ever continuing it or writing any new satoshoko works? sorry if this sounds pressuring or anything, it’s really not my intention to be 😭😭🙏 i’m just a big fan or your writing!

Hi! Thank you so much for your sweet words! I actually do really like that series and I have some ideas about how to expand it. Toji as DILF Frank Gallagher is pretty funny to me, and it'd be nice to write about him more. I've thought about writing Tsumiki and Kamo, and Megumi being a hater. There's a SatoSho with their kids in this universe sort of drafted, but I have no idea when I'll deliver. I have some ideas for SatoSho, but nothing in the works currently. Life has been crazy demoralizing recently so it has been hard to be creative. I’ve got two long fics I’m focusing on, but they are in Naruto and Bleach, the two series we can blame for JJK but I understand if you aren’t interested in either.

I don’t feel like you put any pressure on me at all! I wouldn’t leave comments on or have a Tumblr with an open inbox if I didn’t want to interact with readers. Thank you so much for leaving such a nice comment!

Fingers crossed that I will be creative again! Leaving one of my favorite tweets below because it sums up my mood for the last six months!

IM YELLING

Shizune and ASUMA have GOT to be another fav rarepair

Same with Tenten and Sai 😭 YOUR FICS GOT ME

Tenten and Sai are literally a woman who just wants to be heard and a man who wants to listen. I think they’d be so cute. 

Asuma and Shizune would be high-strung and laidback in compatible ways. I could see them being disappointed and disillusioned together on the road with a spiralling Tsunade in the background. I literally lay in bed listening to “Chemtrails over the Country Club” and “You’re in the wind, I’m in the water/Nobody’s son, nobody’s daughter” and “Washing my hair, doing the laundry/Late-night TV, I want you only” are so them lol.

Wow, I am so sorry for the longwinded response. I am but an amalgamation of sad girl memes, Lana Del Rey and Ethel Cain songs, and literary references. You are too kind to me! Thank you for reading my stories! 

hi, dear author! i hope you're doing well. i just wanted to say that i love your satoshoko and reading your stories always feels like time well-spent. you're an excellent writer which ig would only stand to reason you're probably a reader as well haha. anyway, ive been itching for more of them so I was wondering if you could pretty please w a cherry on top give me book recs in the vein of (your) satoshoko? doesn't even have to hit the same tropes as stsk, just their general vibe, and/or your writing style for their stories. thank you in advance if you answer ♡

Hi! Thank you for your kind comments about my writing. I have a weird relationship with my own stories, so it’s nice to hear that they are a) being read and b) liked by readers. I do read a lot, guilty as charged. I don’t, however, read a ton of romance, so a lot of my suggestions are more along the vibes of dealing with alienation that I think haunts the SatoShoko ship. 

So anyways, the books I have selected are about loneliness, and the strange humor that is found within sadness. I hope you haven’t read at least some of them, nor see them on the list and think less of me. I am obviously not even a shadow of these writers, so I suspect that you will find them way more entertaining to read. As always, some of these stories could have triggering content so if there is anything you are hoping to avoid, look them up on Goodreads or Storygraph first. 

Normal People by Sally Rooney is a literary romance for sad people, and the man isn’t completely toxic, so it has to go at the top of the list. 

“The depressed person” is a short story from David Foster Wallace that is in his collection Brief Interviews with Hideous Men. It’s my favorite of his books and is full of great stories but is also the one that repulses me the most. The short story itself is about a woman coping with depression, and was the vibe I was going for in the story “Displacement.” 

The reason it took me some time to answer this message is because I had to reread at least two of the stories in Eleven Kind of Loneliness by Richard Yates. Each story is in plain prose, and focuses on the different ways that people deceive themselves. I had to reread it just to re-check the vibes, but it’s great and I really enjoyed it. Hopefully the rest of it checks out! I guess I'll find out as I continue my reread lol.

My last recommendation is a book I just finished. Life Ceremony by Sayaka Murata is a collection of stories that are a little surreal, pretty strange, and are all about connection in some way or another. I feel like SatoShoko probably watch and read weird shit all the time, so that’s my pretence for including it, but I actually just think that it’s a really great collection of short stories. 

Now, if you’re looking for SatoShoko stories, I know that there are several collections and bookmarks featuring different writers. My writer pal bby_rabbit wrote me a good SatoShoko, “heartbreak soldiers, disappointment junkies” (NSFW, M). It’s a great story, and to be frank, there would be no antioedipus without bby_rabbit (or Bawgdan, as she was going by when we met). 

Happy reading, and let me know if you need anything else! 

His blush ☺
