"The title of the movie poses an interesting question that is asked time and again throughout: what does it mean to be human? When someone hears the word “monster,” they likely picture an otherworldly, grotesque creature that bears no resemblance to a human. In the beginning of the film, Minato asks his mother if a person would still be themselves if their brain was replaced with a pig’s brain. Saori begs the elementary school administration to respect her as a person as she confronts them about Mr. Hori. More than an attempt to get to the truth of the situation with Minato and Mr. Hori, Monster is a delicate exploration of humanity. It’s easy to call something or someone a monster, because that strips the soul out of the situation. It allows us to separate the darkness that people are capable of from humanity itself, but that’s not the truth. We all have the ability to be awful and good and cruel, but that doesn’t make us monsters, it makes us human." (x)

A/N: I always wanted to write some fluffy stuff for Ash and Max. He kinda was like the father he never really had and even in the anime he was looking out for him. Considering his past, I thought of a good way to approach the topic of him tickling Ash, so I hope I could implement it in a good way
Summary: Seeing Michael and max having some playful father-son moment, Ash could be a stinging in his heart. Luckily, his family in just the right way to make it go away, turning his inner cry into laughter.

"You hath thit o' your fath," Ash mutters through his sandwich, unlocking their hands and scooting backwards half a foot for good measure. (It'll take just short of a miracle to accept he's worthy of Eiji. Baby steps.) "Say that again?" A bewildered smile replaces Eiji's sympathetic one. Ash leans over again to wipe his sticky thumb on Eiji's bare collarbone. "You had shit on your face."
In which Ash attempts to cope with a heatwave and a crush.
Eiji is so talented, he's an expert at taming rowdy boys. I love them all.
