Reading round-up
Sakurai-san wants to be noticed
This is a manga series about a girl putting herself in front of a boy in the most blatant way until he gets a clue. It spans four volumes and is rather charming and typically very cute.
If I had to name one downside, it's the fan service picture each volume. They're not in tune with the series' feel and that makes them feel crass, somehow.
Do give it a chance, it actually it's a breeze to read through and finished recently.
Bakemonogatari
"Bakemono" - altered thing, "Monogatari" - thing told (story). A boy gets drawn into solving mysteries affecting young girls and classmates involving spirits, gods, and monsters. Almost everybody he meets outwits him, though, leading to lots of mocking dialogue. Maybe almost too much of it.
The resolution of the first story is amazing writing, hands down, masterfully executed. I loved it. It already has me hooked. Each encounter with the unknown and mystical is also a personal emotional riddle to be unraveled.
A really long-running series, and being currently in the fourth story (2nd volume, somehow they collect them in twos), I can already tell why. I mostly started reading this because I could find no one streaming the sprawling anime adaptations, but the writing itself makes it very worthwhile.
No matter what you say, Furi-san is scary!
A short manga series that will conclude with upcoming volume 5.
Furi-san looks like a juvenile delinquent, but beneath the exterior hides a surprisingly wholesome girl that nigh-immediately develops a crush with the boy sitting next to her. He in turn starts out being scared of her. Her inability to express her wholehearted crush is comedic gold in itself.
Can't wait for the finale, really.
Kubo won't let me be invisible
Here's another one with an anime adaptation I didn't get to watch.
Tumblr media
The basic setup has me in stitches. The protagonist is a boy whom everybody overlooks. People can't find him in the same classroom, his ability to not be seen (not intentional) borders on magic. Except for Kubo - a girl who set her sights on him.
I find it funny how her whole family can somehow spot him when even his friends have a hard time. Wonderful shenanigans. Also the cute version of the art style is to die for.
There are plenty of volumes in the pipeline for this one, waiting to be translated.

Tumblr media
To say that we’re beyond devastated and at a loss for words barely scratches the surface of what we’re feeling in the wake of the U.S. election, and it’s been a struggle to figure out what to say and how to speak with impassioned clarity when we're muddling through fury, heartbreak, and fear. So what we did was go back to our 2018 "thank you" post to all of our creators, bidders, signal boosters, and supporters to reflect on the beginnings of MTH and where we can go from here.
When Marvel Trumps Hate was created, it was made with the hope that our name would outlast Trump. We would fight to eradicate the hate that he and his ilk have sown and continue to spread and not only survive but also thrive in spite of it. That Trump would be re-elected six years later by a bigger, more emphatic margin, with the Republicans taking the House and Senate, is a damning indication of the state of the U.S. today and a result that is of extreme concern for everyone in the U.S. and around the world.
In many ways, it’s dispiriting that not only have a lot of things not changed since MTH was founded, but they’ve also become actively worse and more dysfunctional. But the difference between 2018 and 2024 is that while our anger hasn’t gone away, our rage is now accompanied with a better, more clear-eyed understanding of what’s broken and what actions need to be taken. We know what needs fixing—and what works.
What works is community. We may not be able to put our trust in certain systems and people in power, but we can lean on and take care of one another. We have to and we will. How do we know this? Because you’ve all shown that since the beginning. We were reminded of it when reading our 2018 post and thinking about the past six years of MTH. Like we said in our closing message at the end of this year’s auction, it’s easy to feel defeated, but time and time again, we’ve learned that the most important thing is to show up even if you’re unsure of what impact you can have as just one person. Every year, that’s what you all do.
Hope doesn’t come from nowhere. We have to create it ourselves. And while there are dark days ahead of us, what we have to hold onto as we march forward, what lights our way, is the knowledge that you’re doing just that. This year’s auction is proof of it.
This year, 180 "Marvel"-ous creators came forward to offer 293 auctions. They offered 360 unique platonic and romantic relationships and character-centric options (if we include "all ships/gen"-inclusive relationships, this number is even higher) across 40 universes within the Marvel multiverse.
This spirit of inclusion goes beyond trying to encompass as much of the Marvel fandom as possible and can be seen in our auction and charity results too. Every one of 293 auctions was bid on, and every one of our 30 supported charities received donations. As ever, we’re in awe of your commitment to supporting all our creators and charities.
As for the crowning achievement, the culmination of our efforts, the grand total we raised this year is…
Tumblr media
Wow. This is the most we’ve ever raised in a single MTH auction (other than our Spiders Georg 2021 auction), and you shattered the record for the highest amount donated to a charity AGAIN, with $9,420.62 going to Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) too. This is all the more impressive considering it was accomplished by the second-to-smallest number of creators and auctions we had. It goes to show that no matter how small you are, you can pack a punch if you team up.
You can see the effort of our teamwork and the breakdown of the donations here (to enlarge the image, click here and hover to see the donation amount per charity).
Tumblr media
We’ve also listed the amount raised per charity on our 2024 auction results page.
Creators, we couldn't have started this auction without you. Your commitment to the event, whether you return every year, made a surprise welcome return after a break, or are new and took what we know can be a scary jump into the event, moves us. It’s hard putting yourself out there, and we applaud you for it.
Bidders, your willingness to duke it out helps us raise as much money as we do. We’ve seen some wild things though what always astonishes us the most is that most donations are small ones including a lot of those crazily high winning bids—so many of them were the result of people pooling their five dollars together! This has been consistently the case since MTH began and is a testament to the ripple effect you can have if you’re part of something bigger than yourself.
We also owe our success to our amazing signal boosters. There can’t be an auction without any participants so to every fandom community Tumblr and Discord mod and every individual who shared our posts and encouraged their fandom friends to sign up and/or bid, thank you so much. Together, we reached hundreds of fantastic creators and bidders from all corners of the Marvel fandom, many of whom we didn't know and some who were hearing about us for the first time (and some who made the leap after sitting on the fence for years which is awesome).
Thank you all. We’re so touched by the massive number of people who donated above and beyond their pledged amount, creators who took on multiple auctions and offered multiple winner slots, and bidders who accepted their second-place wins with such eagerness. We also had people make donations in the spirit of MTH even though they didn’t win an auction, which was beyond generous. This year, we saw a record number of people doing that (even someone who was no longer part of the Marvel fandom but wanted to support what we were doing), especially in the wake of the U.S. election, and it made us very emotional to see such compassion.
From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for helping us turn our seventh Marvel Trumps Hate auction into such a fantastic experience. We cherish every single message of love and support that we received and continue to receive on our Discord server and through DMs, Tumblr messages, emails, tweets, etc., and they as well as your generosity have buoyed us since September and the past two days in particular.
Tumblr media
If you'd like to stay updated on all of the 2024 Marvel Trumps Hate fills, follow us and/or check out the "mth 2024" tag on our Tumblr. You’ll also be able to find works posted on AO3 in our Marvel Trumps Hate 2024 collection and links to fills in our Discord server, which you can join to brainstorm prompts, chat about fills, and find out about other fandom events.
And with that, MTH 2024 has officially come to a close. Thank you once again to everyone who volunteered their services, time, money, and platforms to spread the word. We hope that these results have bolstered your belief that you can make a difference as well as your determination to stand back up after being knocked down and defiantly say, “I can do this all day.”
Tumblr media
Because we have to. For those of us who have suffered, for those of us who are in the most danger now, for those of us who have died at the hands of the evil and cruel in power and are no longer with us. For all of us who are still here. Because we all deserve to be here, safe, cared for, and alive.
So let’s get back up. Let’s get to work.
Yours in solidarity, Your 2024 MTH mods

Have you read Tonari no Furi-san wa Tonikaku Kowai (No Matter What You Say, Furi-san is Scary)? It's a romantic comedy about an ordinary high school boy who's scared of the delinquent girl sitting next to him that's always glaring at him in class, but she's actually a nice girl with a mean-looking face that thinks he's cute and is trying to flirt with him. Badly.
Oh yeah I did read it a long time ago. Never finished it for some reason, I think I stopped reading for some reason then forgot to get back to it

No Matter What You Say Furi-San is Scary - Manga First Impression
No Matter What You Say Furi-San is Scary – Manga First Impression
I’m going through some sort of identity crisis at the moment. The moment is probably 3 months ago. I have quite a lot of posts prescheduled at the moment. First, a whole bunch of series of animes have made me realize that I no longer have a tendency to dislike little kid characters. Quite the contrary, in fact, I think they are adorable and I should watch more shows with little kids in them. I…

Rounding them up to keep up
So, I watched and read more stuff. But before I get into the "new" stuff, some updates for stuff we had before:
I just finished reading the final volume of "No Matter What You Say, Furi-san is Scary!" It was a delightful, highly pleasing end of a series that was heart-warming, well-paced, and fun to read.
I watched season 1 of "Kubo won't let me be invisible" and it was delightful.
I'm well into "season 2" of the -Monogatari novels and find them truly good (except the endless banter dialogue about anime and wordplay). Tsubasa Hanekawa got to be the narrator of her own volume and is definitely best girl. Why is nobody streaming this in Japanese anymore??
And so, without any further ado, some recent discoveries.
Flying Witch
This is an "older one" and hence we're unlikely to see another season. I'm glad the time is ending where most anime wound up with one season only.
This is one is a bit subdued, more slice of life, and absolutely a comforting treasure. Young modern-day witch arrives at her relatives, begins to slowly get into the business of witching she's supposed o learn, and also attends high school.
Tumblr media
Three episodes in, already loving it. Countryside goodness. Wholesome to boot.
Bullbuster
A different take on giant robots. Small down-on-its-luck company uses giant robots to battle monsters that have overrun a Japanese island - in a Japan very similar to present day. But the show is not about endless robot-vs-monster battles, it's really about the people working at that company, uncovering the mystery behind the monsters, and the realities of the workplace. It's fun and relatable.
No animated GIF for this? Meh.
I'm In Love With The Villainess
Rae loves her dating sim games and one day wakes up in her favorite one. But instead of winning over any of the handsome three princes she goes after her favorite, the haughty noble and game's bully/antagonist - Claire.
Rae is armed with the knowledge about the game's many paths that somehow still play out, but the more she progresses down her path to win Claire's affections, the more she gets into the unknown.
Tumblr media
What makes the show work is the Claire has actually quite some character under her off-putting demeanor - and what makes it funny is that Rae is perfectly content to be Claire's masochist doormat - which really freaks Claire out. Freaking out Claire is best!
Definitely above par for a "I'm in a game!" show and entertaining.
Ron Kamonohashi's Forbidden Deductions
Here's a modern Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson pairing. Ron is a genius but (complicated backstory, yada yada) forbidden from sleuthing - which is all he lives for. He's of course quirky to boot.
Tumblr media
Toto is a most hapless police detective that was about to be fired from the murder unit because he couldn't solve any cases. They team up and Toto becomes the front for Ron to solve cases.
It's super-quirky, funny, and has great mysteries. I think it also abides by the code for writing a true detective mystery by providing us enough clues to solve the mystery ourselves. (As opposed to hack stories like the BBC's "Sherlock" which is all about grandstanding. Sorry, Benedict Cumberbatch. I still love you.)
Our Dating Story: The Experienced You and The Inexperienced Me
A shy high school nobody is dared to confess to his class' super-popular gyaru that he has a crush on. And she says yes? Turns out our heroine did have a lot of boyfriends because she says yes to all of them and tries to make the boys happy, only for them to take advantage and leave. (Because she thinks this is as it should be and not of herself.)
Tumblr media
It's not very convincing a setup, and the show suffers at times from it, but it's heart-warming how the protagonist slows things down and actually tries to date the person she is and cares about her and how actual feelings bloom.
It's very low on drama, save for one episode, and very untypically for a Japanese show, the drama is nigh-immediately resolved by... talking it out? Communication? Where is the several seasons of dysfunction and unsaid words? Somebody clearly didn't get the memo.
(Actually I like it. It's an easy show to watch.)
The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You
I thought this would be too stupid to bear but it's actually working. A god fucks up somebody's wish for a girlfriend and grants him 100 soulmates. And to make it worse, they'll die if they don't get to be with him. And he meets all in high school.
Title is a dirty liar, though: So far it's five. And they rock, even though they simply are a harem covering all character type bases. (But I won't pretend I remember their names.)
Tumblr media
The show is funny to watch, there is not much drama, and it doesn't take itself seriously. And the girls agree that they other can date him, too? And have all kinds of interactions themselves?
This could be a show about polyamory except it's too silly for that. But it makes me laugh. It's really into kissing, though.
Psycho-Pass
Japan in the future. An omnipresent AI can detect whether people are so psychologically unstable they would get violent or murderous, so a special police task force hunts them down.
Tumblr media
And who better to hunt them down than people with high disturbance scores and their handlers? Yeah, makes sense...
I'm only halfway, but I suspect more is behind the show's setup than simply enabling the episodes to proceed as they do - the underlying arc is only unfolding slowly yet.
But talk about dystopia. This is "Minority Report" all over. The reaction of people to other people being in actual distress is itself disturbing. May be a very clever show. I hope. It sure thinks nothing of allowing maximum violence against people who have merely a high score... Wow, there's more? But not today.

Kokkuri-san (Loki Oneshot)
Summary: You are on your way back to the Tower when you sense a strange energy emanating from it. Loki is there to help.
Pairing: Loki x F!Reader (established relationship)
Word Count: 1,718
Warnings/Disclaimers: Opens with description of being unable to breathe.
A/N: I tried to provide enough information for this to be a stand alone, but it does still act like a follow-up to Sorceress. And if you would like more information on the game Kokkuri-san, I highly recommend checking out the podcasts Kowabana and Toshiden both created by Tara A. Devlin at Kowabana.net. Just a heads up, this is NOT sponsored by anyone. I just enjoy listening to scary stories, and this became one of my favorites.
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Molasses had seeped past your skull, compressing your brain uncomfortably. Or at least that’s what it felt like. A wavering darkness flowed around you as if you were underwater. Your lungs were sluggish to take in air, and it was getting worse. The longer you were forced to endure this pressure, the harder it was for you to focus, to breathe.
-up...
A voice muddled through the inky blackness.
Wa- up...
It sounded so familiar...
Wake up...
Nat, maybe? Were you asleep?
WAKE UP!
Your eyes shot open, unwillingly taking in the light of the Quinjet. The air you sucked in felt like gravel in your throat. Nat’s steely grip on your shoulders were beginning to ground you in reality.
“Wha- What happened?” Your throat burned as you spoke.
“Some kind of dream.” Her concerned eyes bored into you as you tried to blink yourself to full consciousness. “You were breathing heavily before you just stopped altogether. You okay?”
“Y-yeah,” you half lied. You didn’t feel nearly as bad in the dream but it still felt like sludge was creeping across your mind. Whatever energy you were getting close to was some kind of nasty. “How far are we from the Tower?”
Nat released you from her hold. “About an hour out.”
The pressure on your head was only growing worse the closer you all got.
“Okay...” you sucked in a deep breath.
Sitting in the seat across from you, Nat eyed you wearily. “You sure you’re good?”
“Yeah,” you nodded, pulling out your phone. “Just going to break one of Fury’s rules. Something is going on at the Tower.”
An eyebrow shot up her forehead. “One of those sixth sense things, again?”
“You could say that...”
You pulled up Loki in the messenger app. You could astral project yourself to talk with him, but that could be more dangerous with whatever energy was infecting the Tower.
You: Hey. We’re almost back. What’s going on there?
Loki: Good evening to you as well, Darling. You can feel the energy from where you are?
You: Yes, it’s very... Palpable. ☹️
Loki: Well, we could use the extra help. It seems that the Ant-Man’s daughter played some spirit summoning game before joining him here for the summer.
You: And it followed her... Great... Is she at least okay?
Loki: She is unharmed. More spooked than anything.
You: Good, good. Did she mention any specifics? Like which game?
Loki: She did, yes. Although, she is unsure if she remembers it correctly. I believe she said it was Kakariko.
You: That can’t be right... That’s a village from a video game series.
Loki: So I learned recently with the Spiderling’s assistance.
You: Did she mention anything else?
Loki: She spoke of strange symbols as well as numbers being written in rows on a piece of paper. A coin was used as a conduit to pick each symbol.
You huffed and smacked your head in realization.
Tumblr media
Kokkuri-san
Similar to a Ouija board in nature, missing or mucking up a step could be dangerous. Summoning spirits really should not be a game, something you concluded after cleaning up several messes on campus caused by the students who believed themselves master magicians despite their lack of experience. You couldn’t blame them too much for wanting to try since you had played a variety of those games in traveling with your family as a child. In Japan, Kokkuri-san was all the rage in schools.
Bumping your head on the back of the seat impatiently, you checked the time on your phone for the millionth time. You were about twenty minutes away now. Estimating the physical distance, you debated on just teleporting to the Tower instead of waiting in agony during the small amount of time.
Your phone pinged with a new message.
Loki: How are you faring?
You: Better than before. Energy barrier helps. How’re things there?
Loki: I have Lang and Cassie in her room with protection. The spirit cannot reach her there. However, it is lurking about. Stark is none too pleased.
You: He’s not blaming you, is he?
Loki: He tried. It did not last long.
You: Good. We should be there shortly.
Loki: I’ll be waiting, Dove.
Placing the phone in your pocket, you huffed.
“You know,” Nat chimed in, “We should be pretty close now. Just go already.”
Contemplating a moment, you answered, “I don’t know... I’ve only practiced long distance teleportation a few times.”
“And you were successful. Count this as extra practice. Now get out of here.” The harsh sound of her words was mitigated by an encouraging smile.
With a nod, you took a deep breath and teleported to the landing pad. You were about a foot away from the floor when you reappeared. Loki was already there to catch you. The god knew you too well.
“I dare say you might be getting the hang of this.” He held you close like he was making up for lost time.
You reached up and cupped his face to pull him in for a kiss. “Only because I have a very patient teacher.”
“I have missed this,” he breathed, his lips brushing against yours. “But I believe there is a young girl waiting for our help.”
Tumblr media
Aside from Stark’s ranting about how ghosts weren’t real, setting up the library went off without a fuss. Between the salt, candles, charms, your spells and Loki’s seiðr, there was no way this could go wrong.
After confirming with Cassie that she had indeed played Kokkuri-san with a new friend who had recently moved to the States from Japan, you had coaxed the whole story out of Cassie. At their slumber party, they had started to play and were spooked by a sudden power outage and strange noises, causing them to let go of the coin used to slide over each symbol. With their connection to the conduit broken before properly closing the game, the kami/spirit latched onto Cassie and followed her here. The best bet was to re-summon the kami in a more secure environment and properly close the game. Luckily for all of you, she had kept the 10 yen coin her friend accidentally left behind, something you needed for all this to work.
You were quadruple checking the last set of charms when Loki snuck up behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist and nuzzling your hair. “Everything ready, my little sorceress?”
“As ready as it will ever be,” you huffed before turning on your heel to face him. “This always makes me a bit nervous.”
He pulled back to look at you while he spoke. “Everything will go according to plan. Besides, you have me here. Nothing could possibly go wrong,” he chuckled, a teasing grin painted his face.
“What an ego,” you exclaimed and lightly smacked his chest. You couldn’t help your own smile. “Just go get Scott and Cassie so we can get this over with.”
“As you wish,” he relented, teleporting away after stealing a kiss to leave you flustered. It was certainly one way to lighten the mood.
Tumblr media
The summoning had gone well enough. Both you and Loki knew for sure just by the feel of the energy the right kami had come. It was getting it to leave that was the problem.
“Kokkuri-san, please return.”
The coin slid to いいえ/iie no matter how many times you all reset it to the middle of the board.
No.
While you and Loki both grew in frustration, Scott was busy keeping Cassie calm. As level headed and clever this girl could be, the repetition was getting to her. Loki decided another tactic was in order. A few unintelligible words under his breath that you barely heard and the kami was visible on the table.
A tall kitsune clad in white and red robes hissed and glared at Loki, but made no move to attack. It knew it had no chance with all the preparations you two had done. Its four tails flicked in annoyance and its white, almost silvery ears pressed back. You held back a sigh of relief. This kitsune was not as strong as it could be, having not lived long enough to acquire its maximum nine tails and its full power.
“What is it you desire, Spirit?” Loki spoke loud and unwavering.
“Same as Mischief God. Fun,” it growled through its broken English. Despite the ability to hear it now, none of you dared remove your fingers from the coin.
“Well, you certainly have had your fill. Now begone! Return to your realm,” he challenged.
The kitsune’s tails waved wildly as it contemplated its next move. Its eyes flitted to Cassie, softening almost apologetically as it gazed upon her. Similar to its Western Fae counterparts, it did not fully understand that its version of fun was not the same as it was for mortals.
“分かりました。/Wakarimashita,” it huffed, bowing as it turned its attention back to you and Loki.
Understood.
You felt the coin move again. This time it was to the top left of the paper to hover over はい/hai. Yes.
It then promptly glided to the torii gates drawn in the top center. The kitsune vanished from the table, the energy it left behind dissipating rather quickly. You all said, “Thank you,” in unison before pulling away from the coin.
“So... Is that it?” Scott asked with a mixture of confusion and the need to ensure his daughter was safe.
“Not quite,” you mused while picking up the paper.
“What do we do?” Cassie chirped.
Your raven-haired god looked to you curiously. You didn’t tell him about the next part.
“You don’t have to do anything,” you grinned, “The next two parts are easy.”
Picking up the paper, you began tearing it. You counted as you went until you hit forty-eight.
You held up the coin for all to see. “Now. Part two is going to be more interesting.”
“Do tell,” Loki purred.
“We have to spend this within three days.” Your grin slipped into a more mischievous smirk.
Cassie’s eyes sparkled with hope. “So does that mean...”
“Uh-huh. It’s time for a vacation. Who wants to go to Japan?”

IkeSen Boys + Widow!MC
MC and Sasuke come from a village far away in the mountains. Sasuke left the village before the village was burned and terrorised by bandits. In that incident, you had lost your husband, escaping with your twins, Atsumu and Osamu.
@delicateikemenmemes wished their names to be Atsumu and Osamu, so it shall be.
As a message in general, this scenario is to give MC another chance at finding love again, because everyone deserves a second chance at love.
Nobunaga Oda
After you saved Nobunaga from the fire, you realised you had lost your kids
You were internally panicking, not comprehending what this man was saying
"Atsumu! Where are you?" You push this man away from you, attempting to
"Who is this man you call out to?" Nobunaga holds you back, despite you kicking and screaming at him
He misunderstands you, thinking this Atsumu is your lover or husband. He fully intended to challenge him if it were as he has decided that you were his lucky charm
Two little boys run into the tent from behind, seeing their mother in another man's arms
"Let our Mama go!" Osamu threw a tiny little rock at the commander, almost in tears
Hideyoshi lost control on seeing two kids throw rocks at Lord Nobunaga
You relaxed, seeing that your children are safe
After all the confusion got out of the way, Nobunaga only became more interested in you
"A widowed woman with two children who doesn't want anything in return…" He muttered, watching you scold Hideyoshi for putting a hand on your boys. "All the more interesting as a lucky charm."
Atsumu and Osamu were quite scared of him at first, but they quickly warmed up to Nobunaga seeing him slightly spoil their mother
He finds it amusing how protective your sons are when he gets touchy with you, especially when he hugs you close
He finds you quite enchanting, seeing you play with your sons
When he's courting, he doesn't care that you're a widow. He even takes the initiative to make your sons the next heirs if they're interested
Hideyoshi Toyotomi
Initially, he disapproved of you because he doesn't trust you
However, every time he looks at you, hugging your sons close to your chest and afraid of the Oda guards, he's reminded of his mother
"Don't harm her and the children."
He does find you suspicious but it lessens, seeing you simply as a single mother trying to get by
He was taken aback when you yelled at him with tears brimming in your eyes when he pulled your children away from attacking Nobunaga
He sees himself in Atsumu and Osamu, as young boys relying on their mother and trying to make her comfortable
After the whole debacle on his mistrust, the twins started to admire Hideyoshi as they look up to him as a caring brother
They see him as a strict brother, as Hideyoshi tends to move them away from having fun in the stables
You swoop in to tell Hideyoshi to let the twins play whatever
He finds it adorable how you sew coordinating kimonos for the twins
He, at first, gets the twins mixed up.
"Get back here Osa- ATSUMU!"
When he's courting you in his utter denial he starts to see how the twins need a father
And he also starts to see how he needs you
Mitsunari Ishida
He actually helped you when you were crying out for your sons
A few of his vassals found two little boys scurrying around the horses
Unfortunately, Osamu and Atsumu took an odd dislike to Mitsunari at first
They assumed this angel was going to kidnap them
He was relieved, seeing you three reunited
He saw the twins' potential with their interest in horses
He asked for Nobunaga to let the boys work with the stable master
You as chatelaine agreed, and the twins grew to like Mitsunari eventually
Mitsunari would lend them books and they would ask him to teach them how to read
Sometimes you'd join in during their reading sessions
He'd blush when you scoot closer to him, almost feeling like a family
"Mama, can Mitsunari be our Papa?"
"E-EH?!"
You and Mitsunari would blush and turn away from each other
He'd only start courting you when Hideyoshi and Nobunaga said they'd be a great couple together
"YN-san, can I take you on a picnic to the gardens?"
"Mama say yes! We wanna go!"
Mitsuhide Akechi
"Scary man!"
He looks down to see two little boys point at him, and they did remind him of someone...
"Osamu! Atsumu! What are you doing?" You called, almost getting off Masamune's horse
That was his first encounter. He watched as the twins scurry around the stables, pulling horses to vassals and helping out the stable master
With him going off to other businesses a lot, he frequents the stables. The twins stay away from him often
He occasionally gifts the tiny twins an onigiri each, and at the end of the day see two little tots run off to their Mama with a rice ball in hand
Once, you had business in Mitsuhide's estate and the twins were insisting you bring them along
"Mama please don't go to the scary man's palace..."
He also couldn't help teasing the twins, "Atsumu, Osamu, it's too late. I've kidnapped your mother," He says as he hoists you up on his horse
This leads to the twins in distress, jumping up and trying to grab onto their mother
The two are left crying, seeing Mitsuhide trot off with their mother
He doesn't court you as much, but he teases you in these moments, often leaving you red
"Mitsuhide, please let me down. My children are crying..."
"If I let you down to comfort them, will you dine with me tonight?"
Ieyasu Tokugawa
He wasn't that too thrilled meeting you
Neither were the twins to meet him
"It's better for you to spend time on makeup and games instead of a chatelaine job-"
Thwap!
"Don't insult my Mama!"
"Atsumu! Behave yourself..."
Masamune and Nobunaga are hurling over in laughter while you and Mitsunari were apologising to Ieyasu
Ieyasu was just irritated at the pillow thrown at his face
He was also irritated on how doting Nobunaga was to your sons
"Ah, are you jealous Atsumu and Osamu have replaced you as Nobunaga's favourite?" Mitsuhide teased in YN's welcoming banquet
Hideyoshi and Masamune would notice too
When you were learning medicine from Ieyasu, you'd tell him of how grateful you were to everyone for doting on your sons
"I don't mean to intrude, but what about their father?"
You almost dropped the bottle of ink when he asked that
"He's... He's dead. Our village was ambushed and burned by bandits... He fought to the bitter end, trying to protect me and our sons."
Ieyasu internally regrets ever asking you that question
When you finished your story, you got up to leave. Ieyasu grabbed you by the hand, unknowingly acting on instinct
"I... I'm sorry."
"Don't be Ieyasu-san. That is my own experience."
Eventually, Ieyasu and you talked over your own traumas
You felt quite welcomed when Ieyasu allowed you to talk about anything
You even convinced the twins to be nicer to Ieyasu
He looks up to you for being so strong. You were even stronger than him and the warlords
Masamune Date
He was amused by how persistent you were about escaping Nobunaga
He caught you anyway, finding you a pretty little thing
"Mama!"
"Osamu! Atsumu!"
You called out to two little boys who stood in front of his horse
Hideyoshi eventually picked the two up and he also found your two boys amusing
He didn't understand why they stared so intently at you and him
"It might be your eyepatch and your horse. They're quite fond of horses."
Masamune definitely rough houses them when they're not attending to horses
"Mama, Masamune taught me how to hold a sword!"
"And I got to hold a bow!"
You do internally panic, seeing your kids hold weapons
You and Masamune have a playful relationship and he willingly takes Atsumu and Osamu under his wing
Once, you followed Masamune to a campaign as a healer
"Mama, Masamune brought us with him!"
"DATE MASAMUNE, YOU DARE BRING MY SONS TO THE BATTLEFIELD?!"
That day, the Date Army did not fear the fury of the enemy, but they feared the wrath of LN YN
Kenshin Uesugi
Kenshin didn't know of your children when you met
As a widowed woman,  you didn't want to be a target, especially not to a man who held a sword at you
You were cautious of Kenshin, but you both couldn't deny how close you two had gotten
Once, you had to leave early and Kenshin demanded you stay. That's when you broke it to him that you had two little boys waiting for you at home
He almost gave up on you, presuming you were married
"Is your husband waiting as well?"
You shook your head, explaining you were a widow
He wanted to shout "Thank GOD." out loud but it wouldn't be appropriate
He saw you as more vulnerable with two young children. He made up his mind. He's going to take you away
"YN, come with me."
You knew who he was. And yet… you couldn't leave. Your prospects of working as a seamstress was too good and your sons were in a safe habitat
Kenshin eventually left without you. He decided he's gonna go back to Azuchi and take you away. He just has to finish this job
However, it wasn't that easy. He saw you on the battlefield, and it was now or never
He took you away and locked you up, realising how many people could potentially hurt you
On your first stay, you cried in the cell, begging Kenshin to let you out and return to Azuchi
"Kenshin, please. Atsumu and Osamu need me."
"I will bring them here if that's what you want."
Kenshin only ever meets the twins after you two had established a relationship
As the twins scurried over to hug their beloved Mama, he regrets in his heart for separating child and parent
"Atsumu, Osamu, this is Kenshin."
The twins were iffy about Kenshin at first. After all, he is the person who took Mama away. But… the twins want a Papa to take care of Mama, and Mama loves Kenshin… and besides that…
Bunnies. The twins enjoy being buried in the bunnies all day.
Staying in Kasugayama means they get to go with Uncle Sasuke
Kenshin gets jealous of Sasuke's closeness to the kids
He eventually gives in and asks Sasuke how to get along with them
If the person who killed your husband ever shows up in your life again, no matter where they stand, Kenshin would cut them down.
You and the twins are his family. The person who tries to take that away faces hell by Kenshin's blade
Sasuke Sarutobi
Uncle Sasuke Babysitter Supreme
He understands your situation, especially when your past husband was his best friend
He asks you to move to Kasugayama with him, and let the twins live in peace
In this case, since you can trust Sasuke, you go along with it. You decided it's best
It was even easier to convince the Oda, despite you moving to Kasugayama
"My husband's best friend works in Kasugayama. I am grateful for your help…"
Nobunaga surprisingly lets go of you that easily, at the demand you bring the twins to Azuchi often
Sasuke offers you work in the castle, but you decided to just work with the seamstresses from home
Sasuke often brings Atsumu and Osamu to observe and study the fine horses of Kasugayama
On his days off, he spends it making sure you're settled
He does try to investigate who terrorised the village
He feels as if he owes you, since he left the village before the terror happened
He wants to be there for you, every step of the way
He does notice that Atsumu and Osamu get fidgety around the higher ups like Kenshin and Shingen
He brings you on tours in Kasugayama, even teaching the twins his secret ninja skills
"Sasuke, Sasuke! Do magic!"
He pulls out his smoke bombs and throws it to the ground
The twins are delighted every time Kenshin duels Sasuke or Yukimura and find it an enjoyable show
He puts in extra effort when the twins are watching
"Mama, Mama, we wanna be ninjas too!"
"Sasuke, what did you do?"
He and Yukimura co-babysit, albeit sometimes Yuki's not that great at it
"Mama, today we helped Sasuke and Yukimura hide the umeboshi!"
Shingen Takeda
He does meet you through Sasuke, but he was the first person to know of your husband
He thought it would work in his favour, but it backfires
"You’re his wife right? He boasts of you all the time…"
You completely shut down, as you grew scared of Shingen. You never met this man who claims to be acquainted with your husband
He does explain that he had seen your husband's trips to Kai, his previous land and had known him
You calmed down, and the twins peaked out from your cape
"Oh? And these are the two sons of his joy?"
Atsumu and Osamu were very shy meeting Shingen, but he eventually got them with the excessive amount of sweets he orders
He does flirt with you out in the open, even making a move in front of your sons
"Don't you agree YN is a goddess, Atsumu and Osamu?"
"Mama's the prettiest goddess!"
Shingen, out of all of them, is the quickest to propose marriage in your relationship
Ah yes, he is an experienced father with Yukimura
"Yuki, these are your siblings."
"Hah? Atsumu and Osamu?"
He fully supports your sons' interests in horses
He lets them watch over his horse when he goes to Kasugayama
They love Shingen's pet. As they play together, Shingen whisks you away
He loves to pretend to be an evil king kidnapping his wife
"Hahahaha! Prince Atsumu and Prince Osamu! You're too late! The Goddess YN is mine!"
"Shingen!" You yelp as he lifts you in his arms
"Let's save Mama!"
"Yeah! With our ninja skills!"
Yukimura Sanada
He met the children when you went on your market trips
You had been acquainted with Yuki from Sasuke before, so you two were… friends?
The moment the children saw what he was selling, they decided to buy the pretty hairpin for their Mama
"Mr. Yuki, can you save this hairpin for us?" Osamu asked when Atsumu distracted you with the pretty fabrics
"What for?"
"We're gonna buy it from you for Mama!"
They got a small allowance each from the stable master in the Azuchi castle, so they managed to get enough money
"Mama, let's go to Mr. Yuki's stall!"
There he was, and the twins presented their earnings for the prettiest pin
"Mama, we bought it for you!"
You were overwhelmed, unable to contain your excitement
"Really? Mama is really happy Osamu and Atsumu!"
Yuki coughed to get your attention, and returned the twins' money. "Buy them a nice toy or book. Take the pin."
You and Yuki grew closer, the twins occasionally coming along
When you and Yuki were alone, Yuki became such a klutz when it came to courting you
Osamu and Atsumu caught on, and since they grew fond of Yuki, they interrupted your romantic moments a lot
"Mr. Yuki is trying to say you look very pretty today Mama."
"Oh really?"
"N-NO I WAS NOT! You shouldn't meddle with adult things!"
He does also ask you to go with him, and dreams of taking you away to meet Shingen and the rest
He even tries to convince you how safe it is for the twins
"Why are you trying so hard Yuki?"
"Because I don't want you hurt okay?!"
He pulls you close, surrounded by the serene forest. "Just… I need to know you're safe."
You nod. "I will be safe. In Azuchi."
You two do get separated for long, but as the war approached, you two meet once again on the battlefield
Yuki is more than willing to help Sasuke discover who was behind the terrorism of your village
When he takes you away, he begs the Oda to give the twins to be reunited with their mother
He would propose marriage the latest, not wanting to pressure you knowing what happened to your husband
