I Couldn’t Stop Thinking About Shikigami Slippers From Jujutsu Kaisen Merch

Hair / Sleepover

There is a scene in Cherry Magic that exemplifies what I love about stories with magic realism.

During a drunken game at a work dinner, Adachi and Kurosawa are asked to kiss.

Adachi braces himself. He’s uncomfortable with the whole thing and it shows clearly on his face. Kurosawa, who’s leaning over to plant the kiss and get it over with, notices his distress. So, instead of kissing him on the lips, he drops a quick peck on his forehead. 

Adachi - who can hear thoughts through touch - is startled at Kurosawa’s thoughts. He’s sorry. He didn’t want to force a kiss on Adachi like this.  Since Adachi already knows Kurosawa’s feelings for him, he follows the man out to check on him. This time when Adachi’s fingers accidentally touch Kurosawa, Adachi is the one to notice the other man’s internal distress.

Kurosawa is wrestling with himself. He had already told himself that Adachi would never reciprocate his feelings. So even though a small part of him was happy to get close to Adachi, most of him was crushed at the thought that Adachi must have hated the kiss.

The reason this scene is so great is because of what happens next. Kurosawa is the confident, outgoing colleague Adachi has always been in awe of. Adachi is introverted and doesn’t express himself too well. But because Adachi has heard Kurosawa’s most intimate feelings, he feels the unfairness of knowing too much. He understands that there’s an imbalance and feels compelled to correct it.

You can almost feel the crushing pressure on his narrow shoulders as he pushes himself to explain to Kurosawa why he looked distressed. It wasn’t because of Kurosawa, it was because he was inexperienced and afraid. He didn’t hate the kiss.

It wasn’t a confession, just a deep desire not to hurt the man who’s been exceptionally kind to him and somehow also seems to really like and respect him. But saying just that much would have been beyond Adachi, if he didn’t suddenly develop mind reading powers which made it impossible for him to ignore Kurosawa’s feelings.

The guy who would usually keep to himself, second guess anything he did notice about others, and live by a motto of inaction was pushed to speak out because he couldn’t pretend he didn’t know Kurosawa was hurting.

Of course a scene like this could be written without magic realism, but for a character as insular and hesitant as Adachi, you’d need magic to make this happen.

Sleeping+High School!

Not your typical “go to sleep at 9:30pm and don’t use ANY technology for 3 hours before that uwu” (even tho that is true, but it’ll be a cold day in hell before i ever actually do) type of tips…Nah, I’m giving tips on how to handle a school day running on 2-5hrs of sleep AND how to maximize the amount of sleep you get, so lets get into it!

Maximize Sleep Time/ Get Better Sleep

1. To get more sleep, be active through the day! You don’t gotta be exercising all day constantly, but don’t lay in bed all Sunday. If you get up and do somethings, you’ll be more tired at night.

2. Have alarms for everything! Alarms for more sleep??? What??? Yeah, use alarms to schedule your day. Have an alarm for when you’re gonna shower, when you’re gonna eat a donut, when you’re gonna shower, and eventually when you go to sleep. Specifically, if you create a nighttime routine, your brain will recognize that it’s time to go down at 

3. Less caffeine, more water! Not only does caffeine make you more hyper and cause you to stay up longer, it is also not healthy. Drink water, it doesn’t make you stay up late and it’s healthy.

How To Run On Low Sleep

1. Take a nap before school. I get to school like 45 minutes before it starts, so if I’m not running on at least 4 ½ hours of sleep, I gotta take a nap. You could also take a nap at lunch if you don’t mind missing it! 

2. Look…I know I said no caffeine, but that’s if you wanna maximize sleep time. If you have no intention on fixing your sleep schedule, caffeine es tu amigo!!! But still drink water to be a healthy boi

3. Take a morning shower. I prefer hot showers, but I know a cold shower wakes you up better (is that the word idk). 

If you have any other tips, feel free to reblog with your input!
