Kuko by @chemicalkingx

Jyushi by @tired-bibliophile

[ba9go]

so i just finished watching hypmic and i might be in love with kuko harai...

i just love his character soooo much.. he's so wild and fun and loud and i LOVE it 🔊🔊🔊 and as a buddhist, i actually really like how he breaks some of the "rules" of buddhism without actually straying from the essence of buddhism itself (at least to me, this is just my opinion because i'm not too traditional myself!!!) he's quite vulgar and his behaviour may seem "unbecoming" of a buddhist but ultimately, he's a good guy!!! he's kind and compassionate with a strong sense of loyalty and moral code

but the anime definitely doesnt go as deep into hypmic lore as the game does, but i enjoyed the anime regardless!! it was a fun, easy-going watch with good music!!

i actually found out about hypmic after listening to nqrse's cover of the division rap battle and i was so intrigued by the concept of a rap battle anime. i loved it!! i'm so glad the hypmic discography is available on spotify

We are a polyfragmented, polyplex, traumagenic system of over 50+ headmates and fragments (mostly semi-introjects).

Right now our current fixation is Hypnosis Microphone, or Hypmic. We are also into Food Fantasy and Love Live! ! Currently we’re trying to get into SENGOKU A LIVE and Ensemble Stars!

Our collective name is Melvin, and also collectively go by (he/they) pronouns.

This blog is for requesting stimboards, moodboards, doodles (sketches), and music recommendations (outside of source material)! Anon is on and asks are encouraged! We will keep the request acceptance status up on our description/bio as timely as possible!

BYF and DNI:

BYF: I identify as a transmasc mlm, I prefer to consume male-centric media, therefor my knowledge and interest lies within that form of media.

Not to say I can’t or won’t consume fem media, but my knowledge is limited. Google is my friend for most requests.

We are traumagenic, and believe that systems are formed by moderate to severe childhood trauma and CPTSD. We are also schizoaffective, so posting frequency may not be consistent; it may be sporadic.

🤭: 7 minutes in heaven (Slightly NSFW)

It was very unusual to see Kuko Harai, the heir of the Buddhist Temple of Nagoya in a crowded party, especially surrounded by Visual Kei musicians and singers, just like Jyushi! I mean.. The "crybaby" was already Kuko's friend, but it had been a surprise even for Jyushi himself as he opened the door of his house and saw Kuko standing there, his usual yellow piercing eyes looking straight and his hands into the pockets of his bomber jacket.

It had been a surprise even to mc, who didn't really expect Kuko to actually join the party, since she knew that the monk didn't really like crowded places. The red-haired monk smiled smugly, showing his teeth and then entered the house, looking around as if he was looking for someone in the crowd. Of course mc, who had realized she had a crush on that unusual monk, couldn't help but kept her sparkling eyes pointed on his figure, as Kuko took some confident steps, entering the living room. The place was filled with Jyushi's bandmates and some other friends of his. Everyone looked kind of unique, with dyed long hair or black make-up on their eyelids and lips. It was evident they all had some interests in common with Jyushi, in short. Everyone looked the same... except for mc. In fact it wasn't difficult for Kuko to notice her among all those people. His smile seemed to become wider as his yellow eyes met hers. She gasped- a gasp which ended up being not heard due to the loud music. Her small and soft hand was holding a glass of soda and Kuko couldn't help but chuckle softly and silently. That was something he loved about mc: the fact that she preferred to drink soda to alcohol. His heart melted each time he met her innocent and big eyes, but he didn't let her notice what he was feeling inside in reality. 

"Oi, mc!!.. I didn't know I would find you here! Hehe!", he got closer just to take a glass of coca-cola and smirked as he noticed her cheeks getting redder at the sight of him being that close. Mc breathed and tried not to show him that she was embarrassed and that her heart was slowly starting to beat faster. She chuckled and smiled, keeping the eye-contact and answering: "yeah, I wasn't expecting you to come either!.. Weren't you the one who hated crowded spaces?", mc teased him chuckling before drinking some more soda. Kuko let out an amused and scratchy chuckle, holding a glass of coca-cola, before letting his piercing and yellow eyes going up and down on mc's figure: she looked gorgeous and he couldn't really deny it at all. After a few seconds- that seemed to be an eternity- Kuko decided to tease mc back: 

"Yeah, that's me. I hate crowded places.. but not when you're around, y'know?..", he let out another scratchy chuckle before winking and coming back to drink some coca-cola. Mc opened her eyes surprised and her cheeks got all red. She didn't manage to speak back that suddenly one of Jyushi's bandmate talked: "Guys!! Why don't we try one of those party games Americans usually do?". Someone suggested a game you had already heard about. It was called "7 Minutes in Heaven" and it consisted in spending 7 minutes in a closet (or into a room) alone with another person. You heard some of the other people at the party starting to suggest: "We should close Kuko with someone...". Someone started laughing and the red-haired monk couldn't help but look at the others with a piercing but confused expression. It was evident he didn't know the rules of the game at all. Although he didn't know, Kuko joined the game anyway. Everyone started deciding about the couple to send into the next-door room. Soon mc and Kuko got closed into that room all alone. Jyushi had suggested to close him with mc because she was the only girl he knew at the party. The V-kei singer was sure it would have been less embarrassing; too bad mc was already starting to feel weak and flustered at the fact of being alone with the monk. Kuko kept cussing towards Jyushi from the other side of the door, until he sighed and turned around to face mc. 

"Well... What do we have to do for 7 minutes in here?..", he asked softly. Mc stuttered: "W-We can.. we can do whatever w-we want..", after that she explained him the rules nobody had explained him yet and he nodded, sighing: "Damn.. this game sucks!" At those words he chuckled and smirked at mc. They both were sitting on a bed, mc kept her eyes down until Kuko let out another scratched chuckle and lifted her face with a finger under her chin: "Oi.. Look at me..", his voice became lower somehow and it made mc shiver slightly; his scratched voice had always made her feel something strange, but lowered-down it sounded even more charming. Mc looked up at him and saw an unusual light into his eyes. In a blink of an eye his lips were pressed on hers and his hand was holding the back of her head, pulling her closer. Mc gasped in the kiss. It was certaintly something she was expecting to happen. And time seemed to go so fast as mc realized that he was lying on the top of her body, his lips still pressing with more passion against hers and his hands pressing her against the mattress. Mc's eyes opened wide as Kuko pulled away only to look at her eyes. He let out a schatched but low chuckle at the sight of her surprised red cheeks. He caressed her face and whispered:

"You're so cute.... I know you like me, mc...", he whispered and she could only open her eyes even wider, feeling her heart skipping a beat at the realization. "Y-you... you knew...?", she whispered softly, his lips still close, barely touching hers. He chuckled and  brought his lips on her neck, gently but confidently biting it. Mc gasped softly in response, her heart beating like crazy and her mind panicking. What if the others saw them? Was it wrong that she felt like wanting more? Why did it feel so wrong but right at the same time? Just... Why? Her neck started sweetly burning due to all those marks Kuko was playfully leaving on her. But she didn't stop him at all. Each time he pulled away slightly only to look at her sparkling eyes.. each time he met her innocent eyes, he couldn't help but felt his heart melting in all that warmth he was able to feel only with her. He kept leaving small and sweet bites on her neck, drawing a path down to her collarbone. That's when one of his hand started sliding under mc's skirt, massaging her thigh: 

"..Damn.. your warm and soft skin is able to drive crazy even an humble monk like me... Hehe! You should get aware of your beauty.. You're... simply perfect..."

hiiiii!! can i request a platonic and romantic matchup for hypmic please?

zodiac - sagittarius

mbti - istp

hobbies:

- drawing (especially doodling, my books and copies are filled with mini drawings)

- collecting coins

- collecting cute stationary

likes:

- music (vocaloid and video game music)

- video games (especially gacha and rhythm games)

- fanfics

- doing makeup at random times of the day and for no reason

- rambling to my friends

-helping others

dislikes:

- spiders (i have arachnophobia)

- having a routine/plan for things

- people who force me to open up to them/tell them my secrets

- most foods, i’m quite picky

personality:

if i had to describe myself, i’d say that i’m quite unique. i’m like the basic introvert, quiet and reserved and try to make a good impression with new people, but with old ones or my friends, i’m crazy and unpredictable. my friends describe me as someone funny who always livens things up (but they also jokingly call me mentally ill at times when i’m acting goofier than usual). i haven’t actually met many people similar to me, and not everyone gets along with my humor so i don’t have many friends. i don’t like sticking to the rules most of the time, especially when they restrict my freedom. i ramble to my friends a lot and i’m similar to the therapist friend, as even when my friends text me even one line of them not doing okay i do whatever i can to make them feel better. i’m also quite expressive, if you stared at me for 5 minutes you would be able to tell exactly what i’m doing and how i’m feeling about it.

i think i wrote a lot sorry 💀

dw! i think it's a pretty normal amount but the more info the better! enjoy!

I match you with... (platonically)

Kuko Harai!

-Mr. Rule Breaker 1 here. Decided to match you with him platonically just because he'd fit better as your friend rather than partner. He'd have a lot of fun with you to put it simply.

-The fact that you don't like rules that'll restrict your freedom means he can drag you along with him when he decides to break those rules.

-Both of you are quite expressive in your own ways and that's partly what makes the friendship strong. The fact that you guys are able to know how the other is feeling usually pretty easily.

-Truly, Kuko doesn't care how you act and doesn't try to pry on things you don't want to talk about. He just simply accepts you as his friend and lets you come to him if you need him for something.

-He'd like your collections too, always pointing at a few of the newer ones to ask where you got them or what it's supposed to be.

-Even though he can be a bit rough around the edges, he's honest and has good intentions behind his words. It'd be a chaotic friendship that's for sure.

I match you with... (romantically)

Samatoki Aohitsugi!

-Mr. Rule Breaker 2 here. Reason he's romantic though is because he'd pry but learns to be considerate enough to know when to back off. He pries because he cares and wants to make sure you're okay.

-He likes that you're expressive because even he can have a hard time reading faces or emotions so being able to know how you feel is a good plus for him. Samatoki wants to know that you're comfortable with him rather than scared out of your mind that he'll do something when he really won't.

-He kinda just lets you do your thing when you're chaotic and doesn't really go along with it too much but sometimes he also wants to have fun and I think you'd be able to bring out that side of him.

-Probably would just give you a disappointed look when you make a dumb joke but he can't help but try to cover up his laugh when you do because well, somehow you make the jokes he doesn't understand a little bit funny.
