HELL YEA THANK U LET'S GO so like a true teen romance i think they would be adorably messy

i can see it starting with jiro getting a lil crush on jyushi after they hang out a few times when jyushi's out in ikebukuro for a gig with his band. friend dates (going to look at guitars, checking out casual food places that aren't fast food bc jyushi gets enough of that at work, maybe jiro even inviting jyushi to his final school cultural festival since jyushi just happens to be in the area) that jiro eventually realizes he sort of... maybe... wants to be real dates?

so after getting a lot of advice (from friends and ichiro but specifically not saburo because jiro is wise enough by now to know saburo will probably only mess with him lol) jiro works up the nerve to confess! i think he's a pretty confident guy so i imagine him being pretty straightforward about it and not minding that kuko is, like, also there at the time. he's probably even a bit glad he found jyushi with kuko on the day because the last thing he wants is for jyushi to feel cornered

but when jiro manages to get that "so i kind of... like you... like you like you... and would really like to get to know you better in a, uh, dating sort of way" talk out, kuko (before jyushi can do anything besides turn super red) is like "??? did u just hit on my boyfriend in front of me lmao"

and jiro is like "whhhaaOH my god i had no idea i'm sorry" and sort of thinking why did ichiro encourage him to confess if jyushi was not single?? well he will soon learn that ichiro had no idea and IN FACT

JYUSHI ALSO HAD NO IDEA poor kid just turns even redder and squeaks "?!?!?!" <- somehow he makes this noise with his voice, yes

anyway basically. kuko thought they were already dating but literally no one else in the world, not even jyushi, had any idea lmao. i think jyushi does have (complicated) feelings for kuko at this point, and if kuko hadn't been there when jiro confessed, jyushi might have very awkwardly and apologetically turned him down even though he's come to think jiro is also super cool

like i think what's fascinating about evil moon to me is the work jyushi will have to do to figure out what his feelings for kuko (and hitoya as well) really are. like his journey to realizing they are his dear friends, and he's not solely grateful to have them as savior-figures in his life

i think jyushi would feel such overwhelming gratitude towards both of them that it's at first difficult for him to tell if it's really anything other than gratitude (and respect and such) that he feels for kuko. like does he like kuko or is he just grateful for kuko's help and presence in his life. further complicating this is i'm sure he still thinks kuko is kind of scary sometimes lol

with just the two of them i feel like it could very well be a case of kuko realizing how jyushi feels before jyushi fully realizes it himself, and through some not-straightforward-enough conversation kuko comes to think they are dating while jyushi is still clueless

ANYWAY. back to 2 evil 2 moon

i think jiro would be like "oookay it sounds like you guys have a lot to talk about so i'm gonna bounce" and just leave them to it for a while. he probably feels rejected and that stings a bit, but also he's a strong kid and there's clearly something going on there that he is not a part of

UNTIL i'm imagining a while later (few weeks?) kuko drags jyushi out to the yamada house to find jiro and be like "SO we've been talking, this dummy realizes we have been dating now and we aren't breaking up but would you like to date both of us"

(ichiro in the background is like wtf?? did my ex just ask my baby brother out??? maybe he is busy on the phone with samatoki otherwise i feel like he would be throwing hands about this lol)

i feel like jiro would take a bit to think about it then eventually get back to them like "ok let's try" because he does really like jyushi and also thinks kuko is really cool, and obviously a good guy bc ichiro is such good friends with him, and if one boyfriend is great isn't two boyfriends even better (jiro sweetie...... i lov u)

and then it goes well! i think the main issue to arise (i've talked about this before) is someone (probably saburo, who'll feel really bad about it afterwards, or maybe one of jiro's friends who makes a joke in poor taste) teasing jiro for dating ichiro's ex, like joking that he's taking the whole looking up to his big bro and trying to emulate him thing too far

(same as when jiro/nemu occurs in a ichi/sama world, which i mean. obviously is every world to me)

that's something i think would be interesting for jiro to grapple with, to kind of doubt himself at one point but realize on the other side that it's not about wanting to be like ichiro, he genuinely has feelings for jyushi and also kuko now

ALSO since i am fond of both i do not imagine 2 evil 2 moon and jiro/nemu have to be mutually exclusive, i feel like this could very well become a beautiful poly situation way down the line where nemu gets to be like "yeah this is my boyfriend jiro, and those are his boyfriends kuko and jyushi, and also this is his little brother saburo who lives with us because he can't be trusted to remember to eat if he lives alone"

tl;dr i just think they're neat

i'm going to sleep now but in the morning does anyone want to hear how i think 2 evil 2 moon (jiro/jyushi/kuko ot3) would go
