This gene encodes a member of the micropthalmia (MiT) family of basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factors. MiT transcription factors play roles in multiple cellular processes including survival, growth and differentiation. This specific gene also collaborates with MITF in target gene activation (by similarity).

The Contact_JHW (John’s twitter handle) and Contact_JM (Moriarty’s twitter handle) posted a view from a hotel (which is in Amsterdam, according to John since Sherlock and John are on a case, which may be similar, or which might be taken from the same hotel. Can someone confirm this for me? I’m not sure about Amsterdam. 

These may be taken from different floors, and different times of the day, thus, the alterations. Also, the angles are shot differently. John’s angle is facing the left side, while Jim’s the right side. 

What can you say? Be the judge.

Btw, I’m from the GMT +8 Zone, so you just do the calculations regarding the time.

No problem at all, I like talking about my fics and Shidou! 😄 In the official Blue Lock character book (“Egoist Bible”), Shidou is “asked” where he washes first and his answer is his “neck”—which I found, like, …so oddly specific? 😅 So, while writing, I’ve wondered if Shidou might have a certain appreciation for his neck…. And that’s all the invitation I need, man. And Sae, too, probably 😂 This little fun fact definitely shows up in my Milk and Honey RyuSae fic, too.

And your ask made me realize the link I used for the translations of the “Egoist Bible” is now dead. ☹️ I’ve updated it in my notes on Shidou and Ibra, and I’ll update it in TFEC when I get a chance later. 705point8 on twitter made the translations I used, but their profile seems to no longer exists. I believe their original translations were copied here. This links to “bluelockread.com,” and I can’t guarantee it won’t have ads, spam, etc.. But I’ve just copied and pasted the screenshots here for ya. There are lots of other character profiles (translated by 705point8—can you tell it’s killing me that I can no longer directly cite the original source? 🥲) there, though.

Pairing: Shidou Ryusei / Itoshi Sae

Rating: Explicit

No one had ever wanted him wilder. No one had ever asked him to be more himself.

No one had kept up, matched him step for step, and pushed for more still. Pulled ahead, even, and reached back for him.

No one had expanded the edges of the savage freedom that could exist only within football; distilled that singular joy to its purest, most volatile state. No one had made him feel as alive, every cell fulfilled, as he had felt only hours ago beneath the night sky on the Blue Lock pitch.

No one had understood. — The natural progression of “Fall under my spell,” in bed and out. Shidou discovers he doesn’t mind being made to wait, giving in. As long as it’s for Sae. Or, the JFU put their prize U-20 player up in a suite; Sae and his little demon make good use of it during Blue Lock’s time off. (No actual magic. This gets very soft and self-indulgent very fast.)

Sae was reaching for him again, cupping his jaw this time. Shidou leaned into the warmth with a hum; barely managing to keep his eyes open against the simple, extraordinary bliss of Sae holding him so gently. To keep his eyes on Sae’s green.

The warmth went explosive as Sae traced his thumb over his bottom lip, pressing until Shidou opened on reflex, sliding in, catching on a lower canine, dragging his thumbprint down the honed edge, compelling Shidou’s pliant mouth all the wider.

Jesus.

Shidou took in a shaky breath around the welcome intrusion and gazed up at Sae. Waiting, attention rapt, for Sae’s swollen lips to move around another word.

“Once we get out of this car, you’re going to be on your best behavior,” Sae began in the dispassionate tone that had Shidou tempted to roll over immediately.

Yeah, that’s the stuff…

One of many sensations Shidou had never experienced until his knight in shining armor—somehow both Prince Charming and Fairy Godmother??—had rescued him from the dungeons of Blue Lock, had made wishes come true and dragons come to life…
