Everyone.
Except this person

I don't know what about this makes me crack up every time I remember about it, but it does lmao me up without fail

Gottem.

Idk, maybe I suck as a chef, but I don't want to cook a cat. I don't know what to say rn. Like, what would I talk about in regards to her? That she's cool, smart, sweet, funny, based, real? Pffft, sorry, I'm not dumb. Everyone already knows she's cool, smart, sweet, funny, based and real.

The reread experiences are CRAZY

The best part is that Suoh makes these curious slips of the tongue fairly often. So it's quite an excellent way of fleshing out her background and her character in general bit by bit, quetly and subtly, without resorting to writing exposition dumps or flashbacks.

So how did Suoh learn it? Well, considering that she had spent years in her grandfather's household reading his library, including probably medical literature, her vocabulary makes perfect sense.
January 21, 2026 at 6:30 PM
all kinds of official and scholarly texts, esp old ones. It's a noun with more than a 100 years of usage, but it's also a "big" word that feels impersonal and cold, so it doesn't get used by actual queer people in Japan. It's like referring to yourself as "homosexual" in English, nobody does that.
January 21, 2026 at 6:30 PM
So in this scene in the original Japanese text "lesbian" is expressed with 同性愛 (どうせいあい), "homosexuality" or "same-sex love". At first I couldn't grasp the nuance, but then I realized something.

It's a fairly neutral if very formal term that you'd usually find in academic literature and
January 21, 2026 at 6:30 PM
Yes. Yes, she is. It's a very stupid question and you should take a good long look at yourself in the mirror if you thought there was a sliver of chance that the answer would be "no". It's a trick. It's a bait.

Now, if you're a gooder person or a vampire, I'd like to talk with you abt something.

"I thought they would never release it TT"

ToTorchure indeed

like, i felt actual heartache more and more with each passing week without a resolution like some kind of Suoh or something ToT
January 21, 2026 at 10:14 AM
image me reading Flowers and realising than no Hiver ;_; Thankfully it came out like 8 months later, but there were no news abt how soon it would be released in English until the very last moment, so the wait was PURE AGONY and I DON'T ENVY WHO HAD TO WAIT FOR TWO YEARS FOR IT ;_;

she who is afraid of public backlash shall not possess the remote

yeep yeep
January 21, 2026 at 9:31 AM
yeah, that's how it's been used outside of Japan (because it's exclusively a Western yuri fandom thing), and that's why it's stupid. like, use content tags or/and and age ratings if you want to divide yuri by it having or not having handholding and other types of sesbian lex /jk

tldr; yuri is yuri
January 21, 2026 at 9:06 AM
yep it's dumb and stupid and gives ever so slightly lesbophobic vibes imo
January 21, 2026 at 8:46 AM
ah hell nah >:(
January 21, 2026 at 6:16 AM
