Bonten Discussing Their Valentines Day Plans (Sanzu Plans To Work On It)

I'm sensing... I'm sensing that you're a little bitch. The spirits recommend that you shut the fuck up.

She could stab me repeatedly and I'd thank her

I don't think y'all get how incredibly gay I am for her

I have been in so many fandoms with some kind of dimension/time travel so I'm very used to the ‘otp 3some but two people are the same dude’ to tell you that that trope would not work with Valgrace. Because Jason Grace does not share, not even with himself. If you put two Jasons in a room with only one Leo they will fight and it will not be sexy fun

TWO LEOS ON THE OTHER HAND

This is genius and it honestly wouldn't really surprise me

last night i dreamt tumblr added like a billion buttons to the mobile app so instead of this

we got this

and everyone just rolled with it but sometimes the wide naruto got too wide and blocked off all the other buttons and people would just post "got naruto'd again :/" and the only way to reset him was to log out and log back in

Is Haruchiyo Sanzu Unhinged?Definitely yes. Is he stupid? Absolutely Not.

(*it's going to be long so if you aren't interested don't read!)

There’s a common take in the Tokyo Revengers fandom that Haruchiyo Sanzu is just some chaotic idiot with a pretty face, sharp sword, zero brain cells and in general just Mikey's "lapdog''. And while I get that some of it is meant to be a joke…let’s be real for a second.

Sanzu is not dumb. In fact, I’d argue that he’s one of the most dangerous and psychologically strategic characters in the entire series.Sanzu’s chaotic and emotional nature makes him look reckless, but that doesn’t mean he lacks intelligence. Many of his actions are calculated in their own twisted logic.Like when he drugged Takemichi’s team before a planned ambush or hiding the train.

Sanzu knows exactly what people think of him. Unstable. Loud. Insane. Reckless. But that’s what makes him so powerful. He’s mastered the art of perception control.When people think you’re just crazy, they let their guard down. They underestimate you.

And that’s when he strikes.

It’s how he managed to kill Mucho.Someone who was literally his brother figure and protector during the Toman days.You don’t manipulate someone like that unless you know how to play the long game.Mucho relaxed himself around Sanzu.He thought he knew him.Until he didn’t because Sanzu let him think that.

Yes, Sanzu is emotionally compromised.He’s mentally unstable.He’s broken and traumatized and obsessed with Mikey in a way that makes him act like a rabid guard dog. But that doesn’t mean he’s stupid.It means his decisions come from trauma, not lack of intelligence.

In fact, being able to function at such a high level while carrying all that mental weight? That’s impressive in its own right.

He planned attacks, stayed one step ahead of Takemichi's team, and knew how to navigate the Bonten world and kept the time travel secret.That alone proves he’s not just some pawn.Furthermore, in the Bonten timeline,Sanzu plays a key role in operations.He’s trusted with high-level tasks, and he’s feared.Not just for his violence, but because people don’t know what he’ll do next. That unpredictability is a weapon, and he knows it how to use it.

In addition,you really think Mikey would keep Sanzu by his side in two different timelines if he was just a blindly loyal follower? No way.Kantou Manji and Bonten are ruthless. You have to be more than loyal to survive there and have such high positions. You need to be smart, sharp, and useful. Sanzu isn’t just chaos.He’s calculated chaos and that's what makes him more dangerous than most characters.

He knows how to scare people. He knows how to get under their skin. He knows how to disorient his enemies before they even realize they’ve made a mistake.

That’s not a lack of intelligence. That’s strategy.

We all know Kisaki was a genius and honestly is Sanzu as Smart as Kisaki? Maybe.

Kisaki was a mastermind in a traditional, manipulative, “I have a plan for every outcome” kind of way. Sanzu is different.He thrives in instability. His intelligence is reactive, intuitive, emotional but just as effective.

Where Kisaki used cold calculation, Sanzu uses unpredictability, loyalty, fear, and emotional intelligence to get what he wants. That’s still genius — just messier.

To sum up.Sanzu isn’t dumb. He’s unpredictable and that’s his power.He lets you think he’s out of control, but that chaos is intentional. It keeps people guessing. It lets him move in ways no one sees coming. He knows what he looks like and he uses it adding to the fact that he knows how to play the long game.

So go ahead.Call him crazy and unstable.Just don’t call him stupid.Because under that wild smile and those pink lashes is a brain that knows exactly how to survive in a world that’s tried to kill him since he was a kid.

Oh-Oh this is adorable 😭

Actually, addition to the “Jason spent a whole bunch of time drawing Leo as a grief coping mechanism”-post I made a while ago: after Leo revives Jason, they eventually visit New Rome together, and find out Jason had a foster family of sorts when he was little (since we do know New Rome has a foster system and there’s no way a three year old would’ve been left to his own devices). Jason doesn’t remember them that well so it’s kind of painful for everyone involved but they have happy stories to tell about tiny Jason and a whole bunch of embarrassing toddler pictures.

And Leo is joking like “haha at least you will never see my embarrassing baby pictures” (because they were all lost either in the fire or throughout the many foster homes he visited, at this point he doesn’t have a single picture of his mom and it’s killing him)

But Jason can tell it’s upsetting Leo severely so when they’re alone a while later he asks Leo to tell stories from when he was little, if he wants to. And he does. And he’s glad to be talking about his mom, to keep her memory alive in some way even if it’s not through pictures.

A few days later Jason gives him a picture frame. It’s a sketch of one of the stories Leo told Jason about—tiny Leo laughing with his mom, his hands covered in salsa. And it’s not quite the same, because obviously Jason doesn’t know exactly what Leo looked like when he was that small, but it’s the closest thing he’s had to a family photo in years (Jason did actually briefly meet Esperanza in the underworld, which is a different story, but her part of the sketch is a pretty good likeness for that reason).

Leo is all out of jokes. He just starts weeping on the spot.
