Will there be a third volume of the gouta zine? :)
i’ll miss your rs lanni!!!
Hi, I recently came across one of your old tweets (iirc 2022 I guess) about stsghm no curses au with Uta as stsg surrogate. If it's ok to ask this, do u have any plans of writing this fic in the future? Or any info you can provide regarding this au like how did those three meet, what's their relationship like, who fell first, how did Uta agree to this etc (If it's ok to share). I don't know since I read that tweet it just got me thinking haha. Like I'm really curious how this au will pan out.
Ngl, I totally forgot about that tweet so I had to look it up, and awwww it was so sweet! Man, what a fluffy angsty idea. I normally say Gojo fell first, but it would be interesting if it was Uta or Geto. I think, if it was Uta, it would be even angstier. I like the idea of it being Geto because what if they're already adopted parents for Mimiko and Nanako, so he's already in dad mode and seeing Utahime pregnant just does something to him. Maybe Gojo and Utahime have known each other since they were kids so he's always just seen her as UTA and his friend, teasing and jokingly flirting which made things hard for Utahime. But then Geto says something one time and that last puzzle piece clicks into place in Gojo's brain.
Nanami “would represent something very important to her that Gojo has done his best to help her forget” Bestie I’m foaming at the mouthjxnsbsbx if past nanahime romantic subplot will happen I’ll be so excited to see Gojo crash tf out over it and for Utahime to put him in his place about it 😭 it’s probably a good opportunity for her to get clarity on where she really stands about the “war”
I just know seeing Nanami again would hit her hard. Nanami cares about the kids, but he's also a realist. Both sides have their faults, and once defying Gojo and Geto essentially equals, well... I think a part of Gojo wouldn't have expected NANAMI to make any sort of move on Utahime (oh his poor ego), so he'd be taken aback by any closeness between the two of them. It was one thing for him to be lowkey jealous of Geto - but this would be WARRANTED. muwahahaha
Hi, I'm completely new here so I have no idea but what is a gojohime zine? It seems like artists and writers coming together to create something for the gjhm fans. Is it available for purchase? (I see tweets some buying pdfs and others physical items) If one's currency not dollar how would they buy it?
Yup, you're right on with that description. Artists and writers came together to make a magazine filled with art and fanfics with various Gojohime AUs, along with physical merch. Right now, we're only selling PDFs while we wait for preordered packages to arrive at their destinations, but we will be opening for physical sales of leftover product in a month or so. We sell internationally, so your currency will convert to the dollar when/if you purchase something.
manifesting nanahime tender moment in dark gojo au that will have uta rethinking her choices lol like it doesn’t have to be full on romantic, just /real/ about what she used to fight for and the morals she gave up bc lowkey nanami is probably utahime’s ideal man and gojo is like the bad boy she just can’t resist 🤪
The thing about Nanami, at least in this fic, is that he understood Geto's AND Gojo's reasonings for defecting, though he didn't agree with their actions afterward. He doesn't like Jujutsu society but was pulled back into it after Gojo's betrayal - partially out of obligation to protect, because he's a grade one sorcerer, and also the replacement Higher Ups were likely concerned that Nanami would join them since he was familiar with Gojo and Geto and had already left. Their lives on the other side were very difficult. Life in Japan still went on, but it was markedly different and not normal, so yeah, Utahime and Nanami really bonded.
I would also say he was incredibly protective of Utahime (along with Shoko) because of how she was treated by the Higher Ups and high-ranking sorcerers/clan members. He would've been the first to step in when she and Naoya got into it. Not to mention I envisioned them being the two teachers closest to their "students", though the schooling wasn't standard. They were mainly focused on survival, especially since Gojo and Geto did a solid amount of damage to Jujustu society, hence why they're working toward "peace" with the clans and other sorcerers. They've already thinned the ranks a lot.
Nanami would be both an asset AND a threat to Gojo when it comes to Utahime because he would represent something very important to her that Gojo has done his best to help her forget. And Gojo better remember that HE was the reason she and Nanami built that bond. :))))
OMG Nanami will join IN THAT FIC?!?!?!?!?!??! oooOOOOOooooOOOOhhh I love the idea of him joining merely for Uta and gojo being the weird guy will crash out if learns abt the main reason. I feel like geto would take it well
Nanami could very well make an appearance soon. I need Gojo to crash out over the realization that he didn't have Utahime first. Lmao Also, he's so used to being the only one (save for Geto) to show interest in her outright, so I genuinely think he would be taken aback to realize that Nanami and Utahime had a little something, even if it wasn't set in stone.
Hello do you have any author or fic recommendations thank you
Journie19, unpetitlapin, orabark, featherquill, iliakkaman, andremonsh, maginot, passionesque, otherthingson, considermadness, emeraldwaves, caffeinetherapy, booboothegdfool, tiddiejoon, kara_sveda.. Those are just a few of my favorites, but there are a lot of great fics out there too that I just can't remember off the top of my head!
I'm just wondering but how does a teen Kazuya looks like? Does he look like Gojo but with black hair? I'm thinking about how Gojo would behave when Kazuya attends Jujutsu High 😆, no pressure at all but I'm looking forward to anything you write in this universe.
Ooooh I love this question! Kazuya, my sweet moody baby boy... In my head - Kazuya's facial features lean toward Utahime more (still a pretty boy hehe with more scowling and neutral expressions), but he does have Gojo's bright blue eyes and has to wear special sunglasses to help with his cursed technique/energy. His hair is stylishly messy like Gojo’s too. He's got mostly blackish hair (like Utahime) but with some random white streaks that looks like snow - but as an early teen, he dyes his hair all the same color. Teenage rebellion at its finest. Lmao He does stop though as he and Gojo become a lot closer and bond in his high school years. He's tall too and a bit lanky. He doesn't fill out as much as Gojo as he gets older. He's got pretty intense RBF too. 🤣
Hey Lanni! Just want to ask if you'll accept commissions if it's for a Gojo POV of your Utahime-is-Gojo's-favorite-servant fic? It does not have to be now, just wanted to know if you're open to it if ever you open commissions. Thanks!
https://retrospring.net/@lannerz/a/113794020168477489 NOT GOJO REALIZING HE BASICALLY MADE NANAHIME HAPPEN LMFAOOO
gojo: so i left and you sleep with the first guy available?
uta: you left and pushed me there.
uta: plus you slept with like a thousand people and got into a relationship with one
gojo: 🫨🫨🫨😠😠😠
CRASH OUT GOJO YOU DESERVE THAT
I know he's thought about it but hasn't brought it up to her because of a pride thing - and he can be jealous, but Geto will point out that he has zero ground to stand on. Like my man you have CULT GROUPIES. 🤣 He's losing it because he knows Nanami still treated her with respect and dignity and neither of them pressured each other for more... i need him STRUGGLING.
I really like your yuri gjhm fic, do you have any ideas/plans for writing a yaoi gjhm or genderbend gjhm fic? All the genderbend gjhm arts are stunning!
Omg Nanahime in the Dark Gojo AU would go hard because it’s so obvious to anyone that knows them that they are perfect together on paper. 👁️🫦👁️ and it’ll be a lie for Utahime to say it meant nothing because there’s real chemistry and care between them especially after going through the same hell together. Gojo being the raiser of said hell can’t ever connect with Uta in this particular vulnerability like Nanami can and it’s so 😩😩😩 (I clearly live for angst LOL sorry for rambling here)
So I'm working on the next chapter now, and it's more Gojohime focused, and I cannot get this idea out of my head. The past Nanahime makes perfect sense in this fic. Even if it was just them finding comfort in each other - because of familiarity and what they're both going through - I can totally see it. Even worse, it'd lowkey be because of Gojo. His actions pushed them together. I just knooooow that would eat him up. (And if Nanami eventually joins them..... slskdjdjsj)
Hello! Just wanted to say I love all your fics — you are an amazing writer and you being so much to the fandom! I wanted to ask if you had any plans to update Legally Binding? I thought that had an amazing premise and would love to read more about Utahime’s healing journey (with Gojo’s magic d lmao) but no pressure of course!! Happy new year and I hope 2025 will be a lovely one for you <3
I got the second chapter up! My plan is to finish that one relatively soon, so I'll be working on it more. I'd forgotten how emotional that fic makes me - because the more I write, the more I dig into Utahime’s trauma. She's suppressed a lot and tends to gloss over it (to protect herself), but the more she opens up to Gojo and begins to heal, the more the pain and trauma is brought up and I'm like, oooh I fucked up.
rereading playing favorites verse and was wondering if you think it’s possible that there might have been a moment pre-marriage when utahime like wholeheartedly willingly gave herself to gojo? lol
I actually do think there were! During their years, Gojo had his good moments. She actually did enjoy things if they were just making out because he could be nice and needy, and he was big about cuddling too whenever he came home to visit from school. But he was also a HUGE brat and a selfish arrogant shit in his later teen years too. I'd say, after school, he sort of learned to tame it down, so he wasn't always as rough and tried to woo her in his own way. (Don't listen to him, Uta, he's crazy.) So yeah, Utahime is something of an unreliable narrator in a way in "Playing Favorites" because there were definitely moments where she was far more willing than she wanted to admit later on. (Still not cool, Gojo! But hot.)
