#and Tomoko really helped me pull through it

[lovingempress]

*slaps the top* I can fit so many layers into this bad boy

I have been messing with this one for AGES and I’m so glad to finally post it! First art of 2023 is finally finished! Dedicated, of course, to our beloved Vy-chan~ @writer-and-artist27 and her wonderful OC Hoshino Tomoko-chan~ “U can do it!” (The Naruto Shippuden ED) was living in my head rent-free the entire time these past few months and I KNEW I needed to do a piece around it. Of course Tomoko-chan became my muse yet again, best girl that she is~

I had a lot of fun with this one, and it was a good experience to mess around with things like overlays and other layer settings. #NoConsistency I’ve changed my style yet again lol. Her hair is a throwback to her father, who if u don’t know is based around YGO Judai Yuki! I usually draw it so smooth, but I wanted to try the spiky hairstyle for once. It’s very freeing to flow with, and satisfying to make ehe~

As indecisive as always, I couldn’t decide which face to use for the final so I put all of them in here XD

Information Complex - Scene Transcript

* The small video in this Scene Transcript includes a quick flash/glitch at the end of it to flash to the MUGRAM logo. The video is not important to your experience of this Scene Transcript. Please enjoy.

I’m a simple informant So, if all you want is information, Then, let me be your guide into my information complex

One, two, three, 

Shall we begin?

Tomoko sits at a desk. The shutters on the window are down and the lights are dimmed in the room. She picks up a piece of paper and looks over it again. 

Glad you’ve decided to join me.

The chair in front of her is suddenly being used by a silhouette of a person. Tomoko shrugs before placing the paper back down. Words are spoken between the pair but it’s inaudible.

The person in front of her furiously nods as Tomoko explains something. Tomoko exhales before nodding as well. 

Looking at the desk, the paper has mentions of a missing family member.

I’d love to help

But the world is just as corrupt as me you believe

So pay up first and we can begin

The silhouette places a check on Tomoko’s desk. She nods and places it aside.

So, shall we begin?

The lights flicker on and off for a few seconds before the lights flash back on, the silhouette in front of Tomoko now gone. 

Isn’t this a nice thrill? 

Tomoko quickly pulls a jacket on. She glances around the room. The light given from the open door slowly disappears as Tomoko shuts the door behind her.

Look, I’m here to help you 

Tomoko slowly walks, scanning the street and buildings. Something catches her attention and she briskly walks over, angering a few people who she narrowly dodges. Some curses are shouted towards her, which are completely ignored.

So, let me take a look into what you got

Tomoko stares up at a building before entering through the front door, greeting the secretary. She seems to ask the secretary something, who only gives a small shrug. The secretary says something about the missing person not coming in the past coule of days, but doesn’t know anything after that. Tomoko nods and thanks the secretary for his help. 

Tomoko is then standing in front of a door of an apartment. The door opens. Tomoko introduces herself and the peron in front of her hesitantly nods. Tomoko asks about the missing person. The person’s eyes dart around, frantic before Tomoko explains she just wants answers for the person’s wife. The person sighs before letting Tomoko in.

And, I’ll find the information you want

Tomoko sits down on the couch as the person sits across from her in a separate chair. They exhale before telling Tomoko about the missing person: they left the country to be able to get more work and send money back.

They assumed the wife had already known the person leaving, so they didn’t say anything.

Tomoko slowly nods as she types the information down.

The person apologizes for all the trouble. If the husband really didn’t tell his wife, then they weren’t sure what the person was doing leaving the country. They hope it was for work.

Tomoko gets up and thanks the person.

I’m a simple informant

Tomoko stares across the table as the wife enters the room, asking about her husband. Tomoko blinks and exhales. 

Tomoko slides over a manila folder with a single paper inside. The wife quickly picks it up and looks inside. She quickly reads through the paper before slowly nodding.

The wife gives her thanks. She’s glad that her husband is just out of the country for work.

Tomoko nods, saying it’s part of her job.

So, if all you want is information,

The view snaps back to the wall from earlier, showing the back of the wife and Tomoko slightly.

Then, let me be your guide into my information complex

The lights of the room flicker as the wife changes into different people with Tomoko just watching the people change between different people without her face changing.

The lights then dim and Tomoko is left alone in the room with an envelope on her desk.

It’s something I’ve seen every day

Tomoko stares at the letter, tapping her finger against the desk. It just asks to find information on some person. 

It’s not an uncommon sight

Tomoko is intrigued by this. She’d never just gotten a letter without an in-person visit before. She hums. Even if it’s just another one of those cases, it’s interesting enough for her to look into.

Looking at the letter, it looks like it’s about information about a husband.

The person is suspicious of their husband cheating on them. 

Common case. Shouldn't be too hard.

As Tomoko continues to read, it becomes more interesting.

They want to be contacted through a specific number and the information hand delivered somewhere other than her office.

She nods.

Tomoko quickly slips a coat jacket on. She looks around the room. The light given from the open door slowly disappears as Tomoko closes the door behind her.

To see people want someone something done right

The office fades to a shopping mall as Tomoko glances over her shoulder, spotting the husband with a lady in a store. 

Typical.

With a blank face, she takes notes and a picture. Eventually, the pairing leaves the store.

Tomoko follows them into a restaurant. 

She takes notes and another photo as the pair eat an expensive dinner. 

The scene eventually morphs back into Tomoko's office as she turns on her phone and calls a number. 

It rings for a few moments before someone picks up.

Whatever words are spoken between Tomoko and the caller are inaudible.

But this is new

It's a different day. 

Tomoko pulls a manila folder out of a cabinet in her desk. 

She grabs a few pieces of paper and photos from a small rectangular mesh basket. 

As she glances over it, she nods to herself. She places the papers and photos in the manila folder and folds it closed. Flipping it over, Tomoko writes "Information about Haruda Sota" on the front.

So, let’s give it another shot and see what you want

Tomoko glances over at her phone that has the address on the screen. Just a local park. Nothing suspicious about that besides the fact she'll be handing off a manila folder to someone. 

Whatever. If it satisfies the client's needs, then so be it.

I’m a simple informant

The scene morphs into the park. There are people walking around, considering it's the middle of the day. 

Tomoko scrolls through her phone as she waits for the person to come. It's just news articles and the occasional episode of a show as she waits.

So, if all you want is information

Eventually, a shadow darkens Tomoko's phone and she looks up. A woman stands there, an interested look on her face. 

Tomoko furrows her brow before asking something.  The woman responds with a nod.

Tomoko quickly stands up, taking the folder out of deep pockets inside her jacket. 

Tomoko asks another question again, a serious look on her face. The woman exasperatedly nods. 

Tomoko hands the folder over to the woman, who opens the folder up really quickly. 

She reads over the papers and sees the photos. Her eyes narrow.

"Are you going to do something with what I've given you?" Tomoko asks as the woman puts the papers and photos back into the folder.

"It's just information, what would I do?" The woman laughs.

Tomoko glances to the side before sighing and slowly nodding.

Everything turns to black.

Then, let me be your guide into my information complex

There's a quiet laugh and a stabbing noise.

[p5x-theories]

who's ur favorite confidant? (in terms of story)

Oh, good question! Before I answer, let me just start by saying I've only finished Merope, Yaoling, Motoha, Tomoko, YUI, Kayo, Kiyoshi, and Miyu, so those are the only ones I'm factoring into my answer! I don't think it's fair to judge the ones I haven't actually finished yet against the ones that I have when it comes to story, hehe.

So with that out of the way, I think Motoha, YUI, and Miyu have been my favorites in terms of story so far? I'll explain why under the cut, in case anyone wants to avoid spoilers:

Motoha's I enjoyed because I like how her character development came together over the course of it. It was fun to see her go from wanting to get back into the swing of exercising but being a bit too loose with it, to going way too far all-in in an attempt to catch up to Tamayo, to eventually remembering what she originally wanted out of exercising and letting Tamayo win. I think I also liked that it culminated in Motoha having a better grasp of what she wants/needs to focus on, and recognizing that winning or losing doesn't actually matter for a lot of battles, as long as you win the ones that really count? At least as I was playing through it, I felt it was a pretty solid storyline where the events worked well together, and culminated in something satisfying.

YUI's I really liked partially because it brought back the idea of a Confidant you don't actually meet in person for a large chunk of the storyline (like Ms. Toriumi), but in a less, well, creepy way, haha. I think they played with this concept in an interesting way- you get to meet Musubi a few times in real life and see a very different side of her, which makes her feel more fleshed out as a character, and at one point when she's too stressed by both the game and real life, she actually doesn't log on at all, leaving Wonder to tend their fields alone for a bit. I suppose you could consider that more a commentary on the mechanics/execution rather than specifically the story, but I felt like the way they incorporated the fact that she's an online friend into the story events really supported the story of the Confidant itself, if that makes sense.

And Miyu's I enjoyed honestly just because I really like some of the main elements of it, and how it ended. The fact that her parents hired a guy just to steal/break her puppets, and later pulled strings to get the Street Performers Festival canceled, helped it kind of set in just how far they were willing to go to make Miyu come back- and I think in particular the fact that they were doing all this indirectly, rather than sending people to bring her home directly, added to that, too. Throughout the story you get a clear impression of the kind of people Miyu's parents are, and exactly why she's so determined to leave and support herself alone, and it culminates in her kind of vindictively throwing that right back in the guy's face when she and Wonder catch him. And with all that established, it felt very fitting that she doesn't really forgive her parents in the end, even after their change of heart, and doesn't go back to them even when they're more willing to hear her out. Also, I kind of loved that Wonder makes it pretty blatantly obvious he's going to do something to her parents to help get them off her back, but because the Phantom Thieves aren't as well-known here so Miyu can't make the connection of exactly what he did, there's just this sort of mystery she has to sit with now about how the hell he got her parents to leave her alone, haha. I felt like there was kind of a shift in Miyu's perception of Wonder at the end, though not necessarily a bad shift.

oniisama e, episode 14

Nanako is really getting pulled through trapdoors this episode

When Nanako got to the apartment and saw the state Sainte-Juste was in I said, out loud, "she cannot be left alone for five minutes"

Honestly I think Sainte-Juste is fine to leave her doors unlocked. What would anyone steal, the mirrors?

There's a bit on the train where Nanako and Tomoko are comparing study tips, and there's what's clearly meant to be a mnemonic, but the subtitles just fully gave up and just translated it literally. "He wrote many plays about murder" does not in fact tell me when Shakespeare was born and died

Nanako mentions being in the Sorority is a lot of responsibility, which is news to me. All the caring for Sainte-Juste is her own choice, I think literally all the Sorority has asked is good grades and helping with one party.

I appreciate Kaoru using the prospect of studying with her as a bribe/deflection for Mariko. Girl knows her own worth and reputation!

I get where Nanako is coming from, but throwing out the drugs is a terrible move. Even leaving aside the difficulty and consequences of going cold turkey, the most important thing she can do is be a positive influence for Sainte-Juste. She can't bring her healthy meals if she gets kicked out!

Amusingly, a compositing error has placed some of the ocean glare on the top layer of this shot, so it looks like Sainte-Juste's ankles are sparkling

this guy! it's been a while. Please don't tell me he's her drug dealer? Or perhaps another secret sibling

Oh I was utterly convinced Nanako was going to return for her flash cards and see something importune, that was well teased. But now I want to know!

The end of this episode is just sweet. Sainte-Juste back in school, surrounded by her adoring fans, playing it off while Kaoru beams

Part 4 Rewrite Concepts

Ok I've officially decided in my head that I'm going to at least plan out a part 4 rewrite, which is why now im going to give u all an extremely messy and poorly organized list of ideas I have just to like..help myself think them through more!

Ok so I'm having trouble deciding how I want to start the story off. Mainly because I don't want to include the Anjelo arc. I've always thought of part 4 being messily divided into 3 parts (Anjelo, Akira, Kira), which is something I know I want to change and have the whole plot just focus on Kira. I was thinking maybe just have it start in a slice of life style like some of the filler eps but the main problem is that I need to figure out what exactly sparks the whole 'we need to catch the killer' thing. Maybe Josuke and Koichi find Reimi instead of Koichi and Rohan? Idk!

And yknow mentioning Akira, I think this is the hardest arc to write out of the story. I don't want to include it very much, but it was really important for Okuyasu's character arc imo. I also just need to reread part 4 i literally own all of the p4 manga why haven't I done that yet..

I'm thinking of changing stuff w Reimi. I kind of want to make her be born a bit later, therefore killed later. Mainly so that she could be connected to Josukes past and this would better set up the framing of Jotaro that I want, as it would make him 17~ when Kira first kills her (I’d also make kira 5 yrs younger ofc)

For josukes past I’m still a little iffy. I think I might have Reimi just be there w the boy to help pull Tomokos car out of the pothole but idk. Is that cheesy? Just bc I still want Josuke to have his hair and everything..

I want to give Keicho Surface. Ik he alr has a stand, and I love Bad Company, but I wanna make Surface plot relevant and give it to someone who I also want to be plot relevant soo..yeah. In my rewrite I imagine Keicho teams up w Kira bc Kira promises to find a way to kill Keicho’s father.

Also yeah I want to have Jotaro be framed for all of the murders bc again that’s fun idk. And this way there can be a subplot abt clearing his name. Also I want to add holly and possibly baby Jolyne (is that too self indulgent?)

I’m still going to keep the plot w Cinderella (as in kira changing his face) bc I love hayato and shinobu. Plus that whole arc is when we got into p4 being rlly good

For yukako I’m thinking of making her josukes cousin, mainly so that they can have a pre established relationship since yukako probably isn’t getting her stand in this (bc she got it from the arrow right? I don’t want to include that arc. It drove me crazy how everyone kept getting a stand)

I’m thinking Joseph gets introduced after Jotaro is arrested and Jotaro is all like “u need ur dad to help solve this!!”

I wanna focus on the conflicts between Josuke and Joseph. I especially think this could be fun bc ryohei would still be alive, so it’s like a case of “u might be my biological dad, but my REAL dad is right here.”

I also want to let Tomoko actually do something but I haven’t decided what yet.

I’m keeping mikitaka in somehow bc believe it or not I do enjoy fun and whimsy

I’m probably cutting out Rohan entirely tho. He was honestly a good antagonist and I love his stand so I might use that somewhere but I just can’t stand him. (lmfao stand)

Also like at the end of the day this is my au and I do what I want!!

I think I might make one of yukakos parents be a police officer. Bc 1. whether I make her and Josuke related or not, they’re still connected by their relatives on the force and 2. I feel like this could possibly help set her up to help in the kira investigation? Like maybe she’s planning to become a cop or detective in the future so she alr has some skills. Or maybe she could help find files or something. No matter what, I want her to get to actually help w the plot instead of just kidnapping koichi then being sidelined like in canon

For okuyasu I’m thinking his arc is going to be changed a wee bit. Like his brother works w kira, but he befriends Josuke and realizes that what his brothers doing is wrong and like..learns to stand up for the right thing regardless of what his brother says. And a bump in this road could be keichos death. Like imagine ur finally branching off from ur brother and then he DIES? I’d be crawling back to his grave too lmfao

I’m going to work on stand profiles and giving them actual limits and rules. Bc a LOT of them just don’t have that.

I think some stands I’ll still include just bc I like them. Like highway star (even tho that arc was so boring the stand is cool).

Also I still want to focus on the affects of Dio for part of it. I think I might mainly do this w Jotaro and his ptsd tho..

Overall I’m excited and I hope I can flesh this out more !!!

[kirieshhhka003]

(First, I'm French and my English is terrible, so let me know if you don't understand something).Hi darling, I've read your blog for a long time, but it's the first time I've placed an order. Can you call me Venus if you like? Anyway, I've been thinking about Josuke declaring himself to his S/O who studies in the same class as him. I keep thinking about him screaming "I love you" and running away. Would you have any headcanons about it?

Hi Venus! Thank you for your request, my lovely

Pairing: Josuke Higashikata x GN! Reader

Warnings: language

Josuke confessing his feelings to reader headcanons + scenario

This is the first time ever Josuke feels this kind of attachment to someone, and honestly, it annoys him so freaking much. He hates the way his breath hitches when you smile at him, asking how he’s been. Hates how he spends all day staring at you and then gets a detention for not listening properly to the teacher

We all daydream before falling asleep and Josuke is not an exemption, he loves making fake scenarios in his head about him becoming a fashion model or Tomoko getting him a dog etc. But once brunette catches himself on the thought of him spending time with Y/n. It’s not only hanging out together, but something way more… pleasant and romantic. That time Josuke realized that he fell in love

Realization of falling for someone really disquiets poor boy, he doesn’t know how to act around Y/n! They’ve been friends since first day of high school, and if Josuke tries to ignore or avoid them it definitely will hurt them deeply! But what if Y/n notice how strange he acts around them? They’d immediately understand what’s going on, and Higashikata doesn’t want to ruin their friendship!

Josuke is a pro at procrastination and avoiding important conversations. After months of beating around the bush, trying to find a proper way and excuse to approach you, boy just decides to let it be, not making any attempts to confess

The main reason for Higashikata’s inaction is of course doubt. A shit ton of doubt. What if Y/n doesn’t feel the same way about Josuke and want everything to stay the same between them? What if they reject Josuke’s feelings and won’t even want staying friends with brunette anymore? What if they actually secretly hate him and keep on being friends with Josuke just because of congenital politeness? All those thoughts gnaw poor diamond boy, he can’t even sleep properly at night. Few weeks later it’s impossible not to notice dark bags under brunette’s eyes, and even layers of Tomoko’s concealer don’t help hiding them

One day Okuyasu gets sick of his bro always keeping his head in a clouds and suffering from insomnia. “Listen dude. Either you go and confess to Y/n, or I’m doing it myself! Even I got tired of this shit”. Josuke freezes at Nijimura’s words, the image of his best friend coming to Y/n and saying something like “Hey, my bro Josuke wants to kiss you and stuff, so go and finally do something with it” makes goosebumps rise on his skin, so Higashikata jumps off his seat yelling “Okay okay I’ll do it myself, just shut up!!!”

The next day brunette catches you up in the hall at the end of school day, asking you to stay for a little bit longer because he has something to talk to you about

- Oh, Josuke! Did something happen? You need help? - you ask, looking up at your classmate intently, your eyes full of confusion, but also interest

Boy rises his hands up, shaking his head carefully, so he won’t damage his precious pompadour, letting you know that he’s fully fine

- Ughhh, no, there’s nothing to worry about, - brunette smiles shyly, scratching the back of his neck nervously. - I just… gotta tell you something real quick, - Josuke says and you notice how red tips of Josuke’s ears are

- Oh, what is that? - you inquire, patiently waiting for your classmate to answer. You’re caught off guard, to say the least. You’ve been friends with Higashikata since first day of high school and you’ve never seen him acting so anxious before

Josuke feels his heart racing wild, trying to tear through the rib cage, and boy swallows a thick lump in his throat, worrying if you can hear this sound too. Higashikata closes his eyes, inhaling deeply, making a vain attempt to calm down

- I like you very much! - Josuke blurts out, looking down, staring on his shoes, desperately avoiding eye contact with you

Thick silence settles between you two, you look at Josuke, now completely baffled

- Um, I like you too? - you answer a few seconds later, shrugging your shoulders. You notice how Josuke lowers his shoulders a little and only now you start realizing what exactly Higashikata meant

- No, like, I like you way more than just “like”… I mean… goddamn, - Josuke prattle, his thoughts scatter and it looks like all the right words run away from him, not leaving brunette even a single chance to explain himself. He shuts himself down for a few seconds, taking a deep breath and pulling himself together before saying:

- Look, I like you. Not like a friend. I wanna hold hands with you, go out for dates and stuff. Sooo, what would you say? - Josuke finally finds the strength to look you in the eyes, his fingers fiddling nervously with the sleeves of his jacket as he waits patiently for your answer

Josuke’s heart twist into a tight knot and boy almost forgets how to breath as he looks into your deep e/c eyes

So, what is your answer?

[wanderingchocolateeclair]

Shinya wearing a choker, and Tsunagu's brain just turning off for a hot second, because, well. Ninja. Choker. Shinya. In a choker.

He's brought out of it by Kuugo dumping half a cup of water onto his head.

--

Tsunagu splutters, wiping the water off of his face and pulling out a new mask. Once he's -mostly- dry, and has a mask on, he turns to Kuugo. "I- why?"

"You were staring." The tea-drinking orca nods at Shinya.

He blinks. "I was?"

"Yes."

"I mean," Tsunagu mutters to himself. "I've got a good reason to." His head shoots up. "Wait. Is staring at someone creepy?"

"Tsunagu," Kuugo deadpans. "You two have been dancing around each other for months. If you kissed him right now, half the class would thank you."

"...Really?"

"Really."

--

Shinya flushes pink. "Tsunagu was staring?" He can't help the way his voice lilts up a little bit.

"Yeah," The management student says. "It's probably because of the choker."

He reaches a hand up to it. "Oh. Is it that noticeable?"

"Yep." They hand their business card over. "By the way, Kamihara- if you're looking for a good time, my number's on the card. Have a good day!"

He takes the card.

The implication of 'a good time' hits him approximately five minutes later, while he's taking notes.

--

Shinya sits at his usual spot, waiting for Tsunagu to take the first bite of his food. "So," He says. "I'm pretty sure someone just propositioned me today."

Tsunagu promptly chokes on his bite of rice. He gropes for his glass of water and downs half of it- partly because he's actually choking, partly to hide his blush at the thought of- well. He lets out one last cough. "When was this?" Hopefully he sounds normal. Tsunagu would pay to sound normal right now.

Shinya frowns. "First period, I think?" He chases around a bit of carrot with his fork. "A management student."

"I- um." Tsunagu... does his best not to sound heartbroken. "Well. Congratulations on your new... significant other? Boyfriend? Girlfriend?"

"What? No, we're not- no. We're not together. I'm, uh, kind of saving myself for someone."

"Oh." He taps his utensils together. "If you don't mind me asking... who?"

--

You. This would be a perfect time to confess. Shinya takes a deep breath-

And promptly chickens out. He can't do it. What Tsunagu says no? What if this ruins their friendship?

God, Shinya wouldn't be able to live with himself if he ruined these golden moments, stolen seconds, away from everyone else. He'd be -not... happy, but satisfied- if nothing changed. As long as they were still friends, and were happy together...

He'd be fine.

"W-well, he's tall, and..."

--

He. Tsunagu had just gone through an entire rollercoaster of emotions, starting with soul-consuming despair and terrible, fearful, hopeful, joy. He.

Tsunagu's got a chance. A small one -Shinya might be crushing one someone else- but... well.

To fly is to invite the possibility of falling.

And if he could grasp even the slightest possibility at this friendship evolving into something more, Tsunagu would seize that with his own two hands, and damm the consequences.

--

The bell rings, and they startle.

--

Kuugo has his head in his hands. "How." He asks the world, god, the devil- whatever higher beings had a hand in this. "How can they be so smart and so... idiotic at this at the same time," Kuugo laments to Tomoko. She's nodding in agreement.

"I know." Her face is pulled into a grimace. "I've used Search on them- they've been sitting next to each other for months! Pairing up with each other whenever there's a chance! They- argh!" Tomoko throws her hands up.

They share a look of the unique blend of amusement, frustration, and despair that comes with two people in a friend group having mutual crushes on each other. "If they don't get their shit together," She ominously mutters. "I'm locking both of them in a closet."

Kuugo nods in agreement. "I have their home addresses," He agrees. "Knowing them, locking them in a closet will just intensify it." He pauses. "Worst comes to worst, we tell them about each other's crushes and send them to one of their homes."

The two of them shake on it.

--

They end up locking Tsunagu and Shinya into a closet, locking the door, and sliding a piece of paper that says 'you two are ridiculously in love with each other. make it official, you idiots.' -gang orca and ragdoll, on behalf of all of UA.

---

-story anon

(this is WAY more dramatic than it needed to be, but it was fun, so... no regrets. this was written in like... less than half an hour lol. please enjoy! hello, eclair!)

PLEASE they’re idiots and they’re in love 😭

They would absolutely be the most awkward, flustered, infatuated lil guys and everyone around them is pulling their hair out at their oblivious mutual pining-

God I love them so much- and Shinya in a choker??? Don’t worry Tsunagu, I don’t blame you for staring that sounds eheheh

I would’ve drawn Shinya wearing a choker, but I’ve been travelling so just, <3

The Curse

Prompt: Broken Bone

-----

Kouichi stared at the ceiling. He could hear people shouting, their voices far away and muddled in his brain. He was on his back, which was weird given that he had just been walking up the stairs. He didn’t try to sit up. His head was spinning. Was he dying again?

Kouji’s face hovered above Kouichi and he blinked. Kouji let out a relieved sigh and sank to the floor next to Kouichi. Kouichi blinked again, turned his head to the side. His head pounded and he closed his eyes with a wince.

”Where does it hurt?” Kouji asked.

Kouichi wasn’t sure if ’everywhere’ covered it. Or if Kouji was asking about some special kind of hurt. He opened his eyes again, tried to get them to focus on Kouji. Kouji bit his lip.

”I think you have a concussion.”

Probably. Kouichi let his eyes close again.

”You stepped on a dog-toy”, Kouji explained.

Kouichi nodded. He didn’t remember asking, but now he knew.

”Hate… stairs…” he mumbled.

Kouji snickered.

”Dad’s calling an ambulance.”

An ambulance felt excessive, Kouichi thought, but he did die from a stair once so fair. His head was starting to feel less muddy, but instead he could feel pain dance across his body. He winced, tried to move. One of his arms was stuck under his back. Pain shot up from it and Kouichi let out a cry. Kouji put a hand on Kouichi’s shoulder to get him to stop moving.

”Please don’t hurt yourself more.”

Kouichi would like to hurt himself less if he was honest. He tried closing his eyes more, but it didn’t really work.

”They’ll be here soon”, Kousei said. ”How’s he doing?”

”He’s pretty out of it”, Kouji answered.

Kouichi should probably feel offended that they talked around him instead of with him, but… he was grateful he didn’t have to try to talk. Kouji gave his shoulder a squeeze and someone placed a blanket over him.

”Try not to fall asleep”, Satomi warned him.

Kouichi wanted to obey, but… after being asked he felt so very tired and he couldn’t understand why he should stay awake. Sleeping meant he didn’t have to feel all the pain. He nodded and promptly fell asleep.

-------

Kouichi wished he had been slightly more out of it. He woke up when the ambulance arrived and had to suffer through them checking him over and splinting his arm. He fell asleep again in the ambulance and woke up when they lifted him out of it. He fell in and out of sleep while they waited for a doctor and was forced to stay awake when the doctor checked him over.

His head hurt so much he almost wished he had died again instead.

The X-ray showed three breaks in his arm and Kouji looked so guilty Kouichi laughed. It sent a spike of pain through his body and he felt his eyes tearing up. Kouji was instantly at his side.

”I’m gonna go to sleep��, Kouichi decided.

”Please stop fainting”, Kouji begged.

Kouichi ignored it and went out again.

Kouichi was a bit less out of it the next day. Kouji and Tomoko was sitting in the uncomfortable hospital-chairs next to his bed, while Kousei and Satomi seemed to have disappeared. Maybe they went home when Tomoko arrived.

Kouichi moved to sit up and Kouji’s eyes shot open and glued Kouichi to the bed.

”Mama’s sleeping”, Kouji whispered.

He handed Kouichi the remote to the bed and Kouichi raised the headend. His head spun.

”Are you feeling better?” Kouji asked.

Kouichi could barely remember how he had felt the previous day. Kouji’s eyes were filled with worry and Kouichi knew that as the big brother he needed to do something about that.

”Yeah?” he tried. ”I’m fine.”

”You’re not fine”, Kouji said and pulled a hand across his face. ”Are you going to let me and mama help you while you recover or do I need to force you to accept the help?”

Kouichi closed his eyes. That was a few too many words for his pounding head.

”I’m not you”, he mumbled and yawned.

Kouji snorted.

”Yeah, okay, I deserve that”, Kouji said and pulled Kouichi’s blanket up. ”Get some rest, we’ll be here when you wake up.”

Kouichi took that to mean he had managed to make Kouji less worried. He nodded and fell back to sleep.

I’m thinking about writing a fic where Dom!Reader is forced into submission but I don’t know which character would be the best at breaking a stubborn dom please help

Hm hm hm hm hmm… I had to think about this one a lil, but some thoughts off the top of my head?

- Caesar

- Kakyoin

- Rohan

- Bruno

- Risotto

- Avdol

- Abbacchio

- Lisa Lisa

- Tomoko

- Yukako

- Suzie Q (I know she’s a sweetie, but hear me out: She breaks you more through persistent teasing and gentle domming. Hard isn’t really her style.)

I think all of these characters might enjoy the push and pull of some power exchange/playfully fighting to gain or keep control in the bedroom. Don’t get me wrong, they all have different personalities and different ways to go about making you submit to them…. Some are gentler, some are playful, some are domineering and strict or a bit cocky… But they each find their respective approaches work for them!

Granted, these are all headcanons and are all simply my takes on it. You might not necessarily agree with any/all of these or find that these characters would fit what you’re looking for, but hopefully something here sparks some inspiration! Either way, I think that sounds like a really cool idea for a fic. Maybe you could send it my way when you finish, because I’m sure I’d love to read it! (And if you’re comfier just dropping a link than tagging/dm-ing/coming off of anon, that’s completely okay! ❤️)

Josuke x Reader :: Promposal :: Ch. 5

previous chapter                 next chapter

summary: A strange new transfer student has enrolled in Budogaoka High School. Josuke falls head over heels for her, but has a limited time to win her over before the school prom.

.::.

The accusations thrown at Josuke by his baffled mother were hard to listen to, especially with your face practically burning from it and hearing only ringing in your ears from the shock alone and having to sit in the midst of the two arguing. You decided your best bet was to hurry, pack your stuff and leave. You’d maybe call him later to let him know why you left and tell him that your time together was great, lest he get the wrong idea.

It was easy to sneak past them. They did seem like the types to block everything else out when stubborn. Perhaps that's why some considered him and his friends delinquents.

.::.

About an hour later, you found yourself dialing Josuke’s number (or well, his house number) while lazily lying on the bed of your temporary apartment. He had written it at the bottom of his love letter, which you actually bothered to keep amongst all the other ones. 

“Yeah, I see. Thanks for calling me instead of just leaving me hangin’.”

“No problem...I’ll see you tomorrow at school. Sorry for any trouble I’ve caused.”

“No no”, he was quick to disagree, “It’s fine, my mom just gets fussy like that sometimes, its not your fault at all. To be fair I should’ve been paying more attention.”

You frowned. He shouldn’t have blamed himself. You weren’t being entirely courteous as a guest either to fall asleep on him like that. He spoke up before you could say anything about it.

“Did you have fun though---er, get a good study in? I know I did. Cleared up a lot of stuff I was missin’ during class. Thanks a lot for that!” You could hear the grin in his voice. Admittedly, he had a nice voice to listen to. But you convinced yourself that was just a supplementary compliment rather than you starting to have a school girl crush on him like the rest of his groupies.

You wondered what drew them to him in the first place. Was it his hair? It would seem like he’d take pride in having groupies if it was for that reason, being so uptight about his hairstyle and all. Yet he would always look so annoyed whenever they came up to him, so that probably wasn’t the reason. His personality? No, they hardly let him get a word in whenever they bombard him. His height?

...Fair assumption.

“Hey, (Y/N), you there?”

Crap, had you been spacing out?

“Yeah, I’m here.” You replied, rubbing your eyes.

“Do you have time tomorrow for ice cream after school? Its totally cool if you’re not, I understand.”

You did have a bit of studying to do to keep your grades up (and to keep up appearances, but that was less important) but keeping Josuke happy in your friendship did also mean something to you. Skipping one study session wouldn’t be that much of a deal, you could skim through it once you get home anyway.

“Oh no no, I’m down for it.”

Josuke’s tone noticeably turned up an octave after hearing that. “Cool! You wanna come by my house or I’ll come by yours?”

After saying he could pick you up from your own house (especially thinking about how Tomoko would react) he joyfully lets out a ‘sweet!’ and you exchange your goodbyes before hanging up.

One thing you could safely say about Josuke at this point is that he was certainly...interesting. If you had to weigh your options between giving everyone that sent you a letter an opportunity to court you and just only giving Josuke a chance for the time being, the latter set well with you far more.

.::.

Classes had passed by rather quickly. It almost seemed like a blur but you didn’t mind it. At first the thought of instantly going home and looking over the notes you took to refresh your memory came into your head, before Josuke and Okuyasu voices behind you made you realize what you had planned already. You had recognized the other two, but hadn’t bothered to hold a single conversation with either of them. 

As far as you knew, they were just ‘the guy who looks like he’s still in elementary’ and ‘the guy that looks like he’s committed a crime before’.

However you would withhold your assumptions for the time being and attempt to get to know them truthfully. They seemed excited to see you, anyway.

“Glad to see you waited for us (y/n!)” Josuke happily said.

You didn’t really. But you forced a smile as if you did anyway.

Josuke stopped behind you and contemplated putting an arm around you like he would his other buddies, but decided against it, thinking maybe the two of you weren’t at that point yet. You didn’t exactly seem like the touchy type either. Instead his hand firmly rested on your shoulder, his face offering a kind, genuine smile towards you. 

Gesturing toward his friends, he began to introduce them. “(Y/n), this is Okuyasu Nijimura and Koichi Hirose. They’ve kinda been excited to meet ya ever since we started hanging out.” Josuke lets out quite the cute chuckle as his free hand finds itself sheepishly behind his neck now.

“Yo!” Okuyasu was quick to greet you with quite possibly the biggest grin you’ve seen anyone sport since you’ve gotten to this country. Koichi on the other hand seemed a little more calm and reserved, saying a simple ‘hello!’ with a wave.

They didn’t seem too bad now as you had thought before, but you’d keep your eye on them. After the introduction Josuke had mentioned that itd be wise to get to the ice cream truck as soon as possible, seeing that it might leave the neighborhood soon. You still were a bit unfamiliar with the area, so you followed behind the other three and let them lead the way.

.::.

When the four of you finally arrived to the spot of the parked vehicle, you had just noticed that you’d tuned out the conversation that was had on the way here. Now that you think about it, Okuyasu was pretty swift to wrap an arm around his taller friend’s shoulder and immediately start talking about something else. Maybe it was just your imagination, but you had thought Josuke would’ve been inclined to talk to you during the brief walk. That’s what you were invited for, right? Or is this just what he does with all his friends?

The lack of attention didn’t bother you that badly, as you’re generally used to it, but you still couldn’t help but wonder.

You had walked up to the window to get your own ice cream, before Koichi promptly stopped you, pulling out his own wallet.

“Hey, I can pay for your ice cream for you!”

You blinked, not exactly sure how you were supposed to respond to that. “It’s alright, you don’t have to.”

“No I insist! Don’t worry about it okay?” The small boy smiled at you, a face that was pretty hard for you to resist. Giving a slight nod, he proceeded to pay for it. You did get the biggest size they offered though, who’s to say you couldn’t after he graciously agreed to pay?

You and Koichi walked back to the others, already sitting down in the park with the ice creams and chatting. As you were making your way over there, Josuke looked back at the two of you, his happy grin melding into a guilty wide-eyed frown.

He turned back around when you and his other friend walked past the bench he and Okuyasu sat on to go to another one across from them. Without even glancing at him, you started to eat your ice cream. From the corner of your eye you could see the pompadoured teen lightly tap his clueless friend, motioning them to move to the same bench you and Koichi were.

Trying to prevent things from becoming awkward, Josuke immediately started talking to you as he sat down. “So, (Y/n), is that your favorite flavor?”

You nodded, not trying to get distracted from your melting ice cream.

“Cool, I like that flavor too. I really really like strawberry though, especially the kind they have at the truck.”

“Strawberry’s a good flavor.” Okuyasu chimed in. “But Koichi likes nasty shit, like pistachio. Bleh!” He stuck his tongue out to emphasize his disgust. The shorter teen was slightly offended.

“Hey, its good with the right toppings! At least I don’t bombard my ice cream with everything, if you’re careless like that, you’ll get a cavity!”

Oku dismissively waved his hand. “Whatever. I’ll just go to Tonio’s again and it’ll be good as new, so there’s no problem!” He grinned.

Koichi sighed, and you were left wondering what kind of place “Tonio’s” was.

“Oh right, we need to take (Y/n)-chan there someday!” Josuke added. “Maybe we should do a little tour thing of Morioh for you, would you like that?”

You happily nodded, almost at the end of your ice cream. The three of them had gotten along so naturally

Eventually everyone else got done with theirs and began to throw everything away. Koichi had started on his way home, saying that he was going to start on his studying before his goodbye. Thinking you should do the same, Josuke walked in front of you.

“Hey me and Okuyasu are gonna hang at my house, so we can walk you home first okay?” 

“Okay.” Probably the first time you said something in about an hour. You saw Okuyasu about to walk up with Josuke again, but was stopped immediately and whispered something by Josuke. After which, he hung behind the two of you for the remainder of the walk.

When your apartment was reached, The boys asked if you enjoyed yourself and you happily responded with yes and that you’d love to hang out again, before going up the stairs and waving goodbye.

The two of them stood there for a while, making sure you were safe up until you got inside the house. As you closed the door, Josuke let out a groan and his head sunk into his hands. Okuyasu, obviously concerned by this, put a hand on his shoulder.

“Bro? You okay?”

Jojo shook his head. “Ughh..I can’t believe I let that happen. She must’ve felt so left out. I didn’t even pay enough attention that Koichi paid for her stuff..god..That didn’t look good at all.”

“Hey, you’re not obligated to treat her like a queen or anythin’. You’re still just friends right now right?” He tried to reassure his downtrodden friend.

“Yeah but...I still feel like a dick. I invited her there..Plus there’s also the fact that she’s got a limited time here in Morioh..” His blue eyes widened after saying that statement, the realization just now hitting him. It was so silent all the boys could hear was the slight breeze ruffling the trees.

“Huh, now that I think about it, why are you tryin’ to woo someone who’s a transfer student? Seems kinda rough to get someone to fall for you in a few weeks...unless you’re Yukako.”

“Goddammit Okuyasu, I don’t get to choose who I fall in love with!” 

His fist balled up again, lips going dry as he resented saying things before thinking about them first. 

“Woah...Josuke..”

Before he could say anything else, the teens noticed a slight shift in the window blinds where a light was on in your apartment. 

‘Holy crap, i hope thats not her, i’d shit myself if it is!’

“C-C’mon Okuyasu, lets get out of here, I-I’ll race you!” He bolted down the sidewalk in the direction of his house, with his best friend in tow. 

It was you who had peeked out the window from your living room, but only because you were startled by the sound of someone shouting. You didn’t see anyone when you fully pulled the blinds back, must’ve been your imagination. Putting the window back as it was, you returned to your studying.

Headcanons of Josuke, Okuyasu, Koichi, and Rohan reacting to their s/o falling asleep on them? Like you did with the Bucci Gang? I tank you!!! 💜💜💙💜💙💗💗

(Shout out to @shizaa-chan and @themboculture for helping me out with the Josuke and Rohan headcanons! ~ Mun Johnny)

Duwang Gang reacting to their S/O falling asleep on them 💎Josuke Higashikata💎

- At first, Josuke would be confused as to what weight had fallen onto him all of a sudden. You two were in the car with Josukes' mother, Tomoko, when this had happened. - Though to his relief, it was just you sleeping away on his lap. - Slowly and carefully, he would reach his hand over to pet your head, making sure you’re as comfortable as you can be at that given time. - Though he’d be lying if he said he wasn’t a nervous wreck. He’s never handled situations like these before and doesn’t want to disturb you. -”You’re so adorable when you sleep, babe~” - Josuke would lean over and kiss your head as he hummed a Prince song playing on the radio. - Overall he’s so sweet and fluffy when it comes to these things, just doesn’t know how to handle them at first!

💲Okuyasu Nijimura💲

- At first, Okuyasu would tense up from the sudden weight on his chest. You had been watching him play video games at Josukes’ place for a sleepover. Josuke was already conked out though. - When he realized you fell asleep watching him play video games, he’d become absolutely red as he looked off to the side.  - Okuyasu wouldn’t know what to do really. So he did what his heart told him. - Setting down the remote control, the teen would wrap his arms around your waist. Making sure you were secure in his grasp as he peppered your face in soft, gentle kisses. - “N’aww, y/n you’re so cute when you’re sleeping...” - Since you were deep in sleep, and it was late, Okuyasu would carry you and himself to the couch. Cuddling you as he fell asleep with you in his grasp. - Overall this boy is very touchy-feely when he gets the opportunity, absolutely loving every time you fell asleep on him.

🌹Koichi Hirose🌹

- At first, Koichi would turn his attention to the unexpected weight on his body.

✒️Rohan Kishibe✒️

- At first, Rohan would flinch at the feeling of a weight on his shoulder. You and he had been at his studio and you were watching him create manga when this happened. - Looking over, Rohan would tsk at your sleeping face. How could you fall asleep on him? You had the privilege of watching him draw yet you fall asleep on him? - He’d look at the time and groan from annoyance. It was 2:30 AM. - Fret not though dear reader, eventually he’d warm up to you and wrap an arm around your shoulder. Rubbing it with his thumb in a comforting way. Not wanting to wake you and see him so vulnerable and soft though. - “Hmph, I guess you’re less annoying when you’re asleep like that.” - If you’re lucky enough, he’d lean over and give you a swift peck to the forehead as he pulls out a fresh sheet of paper. Using a mirror to see you and himself as he drew you both. Finding so much beauty/charm in the way you slept on him. - Overall he’s very much in denial about how he loves the way you are when you’re asleep. Trying as hard as he can to be 100% calm and does so by being an asshole.

!BONUS! 🔪Yukako Yamagishi🔪

- At first, Yukako would brush her hair our of her face to see what the sudden weight on her lap was. - When she realized it was you, her expression softened as she giggled merrily.  - Yukako would start messing with your hair as you were asleep. Finding it absolutely adorable how you slept away on her thighs. - As a little gift, she tipped over and kissed your forehead gently. Smiling into it as well and leaving a lipstick print. - “Oh my love, you’re just so perfect in every way.” - She’d lift you up onto her lap and wrap her arms around your waist. Giggling with joy. - Overall in her eyes, you’re so cute in her grasp. Everything about you is just amazing and she couldn’t ask for anyone better.

——-

A figure rose up out of a bed that wasn’t his own.

Josuke didn’t sleep on a bed covered in a queen bed spread, his was Prince and the under sheet was purple.

“What the hell?” That wasn’t his voice either, it was a bit lighter than his own but still had a sort of gruffness to it.

He looked at his hands and noticed they were smaller than his longer piano fingers, and covered a bit more scars than his own.

Josuke looked around the room with eyes that also weren’t his own, well eye since one seemed to be blind.

There were some Bruce Lee, Prince, Queen, Elton John and Selena posters hung around the room.

And despite the gaudy curtain and muscle clock, whoever this was had some taste.

He pulled the covers off of someone and someones feet touched soft carpet, rising out of someone’s bed.

God, was this what it was like to not be 6 feet tall? Small like Koichi?

He touched at the hair framing his face, some of it white and some of it a bright red.

And he ran a tongue over the teeth in his mouth.

They were razor sharp!

“What the fuck?!” A voice screamed and the wall next to him was punched, telling him to shut up.

He didn’t recognize the voice.

Ok, he felt like he was going to have a heart attack.

Speaking of attack, was this the work of a stand?

Where was the bastard? He had to neutralize him before he did some serious damage to Morioh!

But he couldn’t go anywhere in pajamas that weren’t his.

He went over to where presumed the clothes were, the dresser that had a boom box and plenty of boxes of tapes next to it.

He opened the first drawer and grabbed a white t-shirt with green accents.

He looked up on the wall and saw a picture on the wall, one of the kids in it was presumably the body he was inhabiting, judging by the hair and teeth.

Next to him was a angry blonde kid, who kind of looked like he got hit in the face with a hot shovel by his standards.

Maybe it was just the really ugly face he was making.

Luckily they were wearing school outfits, so he was able to figure out what he was supposed to normally wear.

A pair of green pants came onto his body next, a belt then a pair of purple socks.

He looked near the small closet in the room, seeing a pair of red Velcro shoes in front of them.

He figured it was time to brush his teeth and wash his face, and see what the hair situation was like,

He saw a large jar of hair gel sitting on the desk next to the bed and he grabbed it.

“Thank god, I didn’t wanna walk around with this hair all day.” His-er the kids inner voice said.

This was going to be weird since not only was his mom not here but there seemed to be more than one person on this floor.

Was he in a apartment or something?

Or some kind of dorm?

While he was thinking, he located the placement of a face towel and pulled a toothbrush from the boxes and boxes of toothbrushes in the kid’s closet.

He opened the door, peeking out into the hallway and seeing an empty get colorful looking ceiling and flooring.

He closed the door behind himself, thankful that he could be on his own while his mind was racing about where the fuck he was and who the fuck he was.

He went down the hall and got to an elevator.

“Must be some rich kid school or something.” He pushed the button for the second to last floor, figuring that was where the bathroom was.

Hopefully.

——

After asking another person than the original 2 he asked (that seemed to wanna chit chat), he finally located the bathroom.

He got in front of a mirror and finally got to see what the hell was he was working with.

He had to admit, the guy he was pretty handsome, at least he wasn’t stuck in someone ugly.

Like that Guy with that surface stand.

Or that little purple dude that he came across that kept chatting up with the girls in a gross way, he socked him one good with some kind of rock hand on his way here.

And it was weird since Crazy Diamond didn’t show up to punch the fucker for him.

Anyways, he did his hair in his usual pompadour, pretty much a second nature that it he got it done in less than 3 minutes.

While he waited for it to dry, he brushed his teeth and washed his face, having to periodically spit out bristles since they kept coming out when he gave these teeth a full cleaning.

He walked out of the bathroom but held the door open for some kid with a lightning bolt in his head since he was coming while he was trying to walk out.

“Woah! Trying a new look, Kirishima?” A pink girl with black eyes asked and he’d almost mistaken her for some kind of alien stand user but he didn’t sense anything from her.

“Uh haha, yeah! I’ll catch you later, Pink girl.” He laughed awkwardly, patting her on the back before he started to walk away.

He seems to be walking through a dining room, judging by the multiple people eating cereal.

God, he really missed his mom right now. He wondered what the other kid was like towards her. He hoped he got switched with someone nice.

“Your hair looks even more shitty than usual.” A low voice said from the end of the table he was walking past.

He looked to see the kid in the picture, hot shovel face.

“The fuck did you say about my hair?” A fire lit in his gut but it was pure hot red anger from himself , instead of the anger from him and his stand combined.

Bakugo took that as him not hearing what he said, so he said it again.

And that really set in stone was this body was about to do to him.

He punch him directly in the face, knocking over the cereal that was balancing in his spoon and ignored the gasps of the bystanders.

He would’ve went back for another but he was being pulled away by this really tall dorky guy.

He admitted to himself that the guy was pretty handsome.

“Eijirou, what has gotten into you?!” He pulled him away further as the blonde stood up with anger written all over his face.

“No one insults the hair of the man that saved me! No fucking one!” He tried pulling away from the nerdy dude but boy was he strong.

The lighting bold guy seemed to have to hold the other dude back from trying to let off some kind of explosion near him.

“Who saves you?” Mina looked confused.

“Look, My name is Josuke and that hot shovel faced asshole insulted the hair of the person that saved my life!”

“Josuke? Wait hold on, you’re saying your not Kirishima Eijirou.”

“No! I got switched with him by some kind of stand user or something! Now let me go so I can pummel him!”

“A stand?” Mina looked at him weirdly.

“Fuck.” He was hoping this “Kirishima” kid wasn’t doing anything weird with his body or messing up anything.

——

“So this is what it’s like to be tall!” Kirishima ran down the stairs of a house he didn’t at all recognize and was greeted by a rather tall purple haired woman when he reached the kitchen he presumed.

Maybe tallness ran in the family.

“Hello, Ma’am.” He waved at her nervously, not sure of who the woman was or who’s body he was in.

The lady picked up a knife, holding it towards Kirishima threateningly, the boy backing away.

“Who are you and where is my baby?” She said darkly, the knife glinting in the light.

“Huh?”

“Josuke never calls me ma’am. And he never comes down those stairs with his hair undone unless it’s a weekend.” The knife was getting dangerously close to his neck.

“I’m sorry but I’m not your son. I’m Kirishima Eijirou, and I’ve switched bodies with him, I think? I don’t what’s going on or who you are.” Either this Josuke kid could sweat a lot, or his sweat glands got transferred to this body.

“Switched? But where’s my baby?” She wasn’t holding the knife to his neck anymore but she still looked prepared to slice and dice him.

“I think he’s in my body. This could be the work of a quirk user or something, I’m not too sure.”

The lady fainted suddenly, the knife coming out of her hand and clattering to her floor.

“Oh fuck!” He was about to approach her to try and see if she was ok but a new figure bursted in, the door being unlocked by an outside force, probably a key.

“Josuke?” The new comer asked, his eyes shiny as he took in the scene in front of him.

“Hey man, it’s not what it looks like! She fainted, and I don’t know what’s going on!” God, was everyone the type to fight first and ask questions later here?

The guy came over in a few strides and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, the motion alerting this really big pink guy that smelled oddly like strawberries.

“Crazy D, you know who this guy is?” The guy was really strong or something since he just shook him like a limp rag doll.

‘Crazy D’ looked at him with a weird glare, and the guy shook his head, shrugging with a confused “Dora.”

“What is that?” He pointed behind the guy, The Hand having been summoned at the mention of Crazy D.

“You’d know that if you were Josuke, and so since I don’t wanna cave my own boyfriends face in without giving whoever you are a chance, you got five seconds.” The guy robot he summoned looked ready to slice him in half too.

Normally, Kirishima would fight back but since he had no idea who he was, where he was, or what he was working with in terms of fighting back, he decided to bitch out just this once.

“I’m Kirishima Eijirou, I go to U.A, Im from Musustafa, I’m 16 years old, and my quirk is Hardening!” He flinched away when he felt that his explanation wasn’t good enough, but the punch didn’t come.

The guy let go of his collar.

“Alright, a stand user trying to actively kill us wouldn’t give himself away like that but I swear to god if you try anything funny, you’ll be having a talk with the hand.” The boy glared at him, making sure that hand thing was on stand by.

While the guy helped Tomoko onto the couch, Kirishima went to the nearest phone and dialed the number in.

There were a couple rings before he heard an energetic ‘Present Mic speaking!”

“Daddi-o!”

“Eijirou?”

“Yes!”

“Thank goodness! Are you okay?”

“Yeah, I’m in this Josuke kid’s house and I have like no idea where I am!”

“You’re in Morioh.” The guy said from the couch, where he was helping Tomoko wake up.

“This guy said I’m in Morioh!”

“My names Okoyasu.”

“I’m with Okoyasu. Luckily, he let me speak before he tried icing me out.”

“At least we’re know you’re safe! The kid in your body, his name is Josuke and he’s actually a pretty nice kid when he stopped trying kill Bakugou. Something about his hair, it’s actually pretty cool, you should see it-”

There was a struggle over the phone and a brief ‘hey!’ Before he recognized his dad’s tired voice being put on the phone.

“We captured the villain. Luckily it wasn’t what this Josuke kid calls a ‘stand user’ otherwise it’d be up to you and you’re not able to control his stand.”

“Thank goodness. Dad, How soon can I get my body back?”

“Well, actually the quirk only lasts for a few hours and it should end right about now. Brace yourself.”

Kirishima dropped the phone from his hand and blacked out, he doesn’t remember hitting the ground.

“Hey, Kirishima!” He felt someone patting his cheek, trying to rouse him from his sleep.

He blinked his eyes, a blurry vision of pink and yellow coming into view.

“If your really Kirishima finish this phrase.” Sero said from above him, he could presume he was probably on the ground right now.

“Precisely.“ Kaminari started, Kirishima’s eyes lighting up.

“Damn, I’m late for school!” He sat up, actually seeing that the arms he was fist pumping were his and the friends he was looking at were his.

“Woah, hold the phone!” He looked up at his forehead and saw something blocking his view. “What is this?” Kirishima grabbed his pocket mirror, because he’s he owned a pocket mirror for just such occasions of keeping his spikes in order.

But it wasn’t spikes.

It was a pompadour.

“Yo Daddi-o, can I borrow your phone?” Kirishima asked Present Mic after his friends helped him off the floor and into a chair.

He called the last number, and it rung for a second before a voice he recognized answered the phone.

“Tomoko speaking?”

“Hello Mrs. Tomoko, I’m the kid your son switched bodies with. Sorry for the uh..trouble.” The redhead coughed.

“No trouble at all, as long as I have my son back in his rightful place and you back in yours. Would you like to talk to him? He says he’d very much like to talk to you.”

Kirishima heard Josuke whine to his mom to stop embarrassing him.

“Hello?”

[momomoon]

Yagi knocked on the sill off the doorway and offered Aizawa a two finger wave. 

"Toshinori," Aizawa breathed as he stood up from where a bix was opened on the floor. 

"Pretty nice place you chose for yourself." Yagi smiled as he walked in. 

Aizawa bit his lip. "Yeah. Yeah. I think so, too." 

"Need any help?" Yagi asked. 

"Ah, no, no, I think I'm fine. It's just unpacking now." Aizawa nodded. 

"You don't have to force yourself to do this." Yagi gave him a look. 

"I'm not, really. It's just...I don't want things to change even if I've moved out. Actually," Aizawa laughed to himself. "I want to keep everything how it is. I want our relationship to move forward." 

"Then why are you doing this, Shouta?" Yagi made his way to him, hands in his pockets and shoulders back. 

Aizawa smiled. It was the most confident he'd seen him in a while. 

"Toshinori, you have a reputation. The media may have never got wind of it, but everyone knows about your partners. Hell, you even got engaged!" 

"Is this about Tomoko?" Yagi raised his eyebrows. "It's all fine. We never officially got married. I mean we were damn close, but we broke it off before she got down the aisle. We were together for like a month? It's like it never happened. Trust me. I love you, Shouta." 

Shouta sighed, setting hishpalms on yagi's chest. He looked up at him through his bangs. "That's what scares me, Toshinori. You mean a lot to me. More than you know. I don't want to be a notch on your decades long bedpost." 

"But you're no-" 

"The sex is great Toshinori, dinners, we lived together from the get go. But I don't want us to fizzle out because all the passion was just sex. We skipped a few stages in our relationship. That's fine, but I'm in for the long run. I hope you will be too." 

Yagi inhaled and then exhaled slowly. He wrapped his arms around Aizawa's waist, fingers sneaking under his shirt to find bare skin. 

"I don't care where you are, Shouta. I'm here for the long run, too. Whereever you are, I can be too." Yagi smiled down at him, shoving hair from Aizawa's face and kissing him. 

Aizawa smiled against his lips as he tiptoed. "That's great because I just finished setting up the bed. I think we could use some alone time." 

Yagi chuckled as he lift Aizawa into his arms. Aizawa immediately wrapped his legs around Yagi's small waist and his arms around his neck. Yagi carried him to the front door, kicking it shut before pushing Aizawa against it. 

Aizawa leaned away, pulling his shirt over his head and tossing it away. Yagi's hands tangled into his hair, loosening his ponytail and letting his hair flow down his back. 

Yagi moved into Aizawa's collar biting, licking, and sucking at his beck and chest. He felt Aizawa shiver in his arms. 

"Feel that?" Yagi murmured into his ear as he rolled his hips. 

Aizawa nodded, a groan leaving his lips. "Feels like you're happy to see me."

Omg hi so- I'm a mess?? I see requests are open and I love love LOVE your blog so so much. I'm currently having cramps worse than you'd ever believe and it made me wonder if you'd do hc's for our P4 boys (Jotaro included?) about how they'd help an s/o who's having bad cramps/bad period times? :')

aaAaAAA HENLO!! Thank you so much for your kind words and I hope that you’re feeling much better now! Cramps are the worst in the world, so please take care✨💕

Josuke!

While the two of you are hanging out at his house playing video games, Josuke happens to glance over at you, noticing that for a split second that you had winced due to the pain your cycle had been causing you. Josuke thinks for a moment before he knows exactly what he’s gonna do to help you out!

Nonchalantly, he sends out Crazy D without you noticing and he makes his way for the kitchen. You figure that it’s Tomoko when you hear the refrigerator open, there’s brief shuffling around before it eventually closes then there’s the sound of running water “Hey, why don’t we take a break?” Josuke asks when there’s a chance to pause the game.

You had nodded in agreement, allowing for your hand to instinctively press to your stomach while he scoots closer to you on the couch. “You aren’t feeling well, are you?” He mentions, his arm reaches around you to pull you close so your head was leaning against him “Yeah, I wasn’t expecting it to be this bad,” you voice breathed out a chuckle.

Suddenly, Crazy D’s arm had reached over your right side to place a rubber bag full of warm water on your belly to provide some heated relief to your tense muscles and he had also handed you a bottle of water! When he had disappeared fully, you turn to your lover and he simply blushes lightly “Your so sweet, Josuke.”

“Anything for you, y/n. I never want to see you in pain.”

Okuyasu!

Okuyasu notes how your body language speaks the pain you’re currently keeping held in. You didn’t want to ruin the fun you had both been having while hanging out together that day! Though while you are both out at his house, he has secretly deemed himself a caretaker without your knowledge and he was about to surprise you!

“Y/n! You wait here!” He directs you to the couch and he skitters away quickly with a wide smile on his face. You can’t help but laugh at how silly he’s being, but step one was already working when your mind had been taken away from the cramps that had been bothering you, your back relaxing into the cushions for comfort.

Not but a minute or two later he returns with a mountain of blankets and pillows stacked up so high you couldn’t see his face. “Prepare for an avalanche!” He says, muffled by all the fabrics. Okuyasu lets the blankets roll from his hands and onto your lap, you giggle as you wrap yourself in as many as possible, opening them up to allow for him to join you.

Before he does, he plugs something in into the wall and nuzzles his way into the cavern of blankets “I also brought you this.” he says while handing you a heating pad. “For me?” Your eyes widened instantly and you felt your lips curl into a smile as you place a chaste kiss to his cheek. “I can’t thank you enough, Okuyasu.” Your kiss stained his cheeks a cherry red.

“You don’t have to thank me. I wanna be able to care and love for you unconditionally.”

Koichi!

This sweet boy could see your discomfort with the cramps that had plagued your aching muscles, his first action while you both were working on some school papers was to get you something warm to drink. “I’ll be right back, call for me if you need anything, okay?” He says, giving you a small smile before exiting the living room.

He had already known you weren’t feeling well and he opted for pushing the study session to another day, but you really wanted to be able to spend the day with him. You’d been flipping through your books, looking for specific written text and when you peeked up, you saw Koichi coming into the room with a blanket and a mug full of hot tea.

“Here you go,” he says and you drop your pencil to take the mug, your words were caught in your throat when he walked around you to place the blanket over your shoulds before returning to sit and study with you “I really hope that this helps.” He adds, and you reach over to place your free hand not holding the mug onto his own from across the coffee table.

“I know it will because you’re here with me.” You say, smiling sweetly at him and he becomes a little flustered at your action and words. He turns his hand over so he can squeeze yours a little bit, only letting go when you take a drink of the tea he had given you. You sigh out contently after setting the cup down and he simply states,

“Just know that there will never be a day where I’m not going to be here for you. You’re my world, y/n.”

Rohan!

A lot of people would think that Rohan wouldn’t be a very personally caring individual towards others, but when you hadn’t been feeling good due to your cramps, he made sure that you were taken care of. Even if that meant going out and buying you whatever you needed, he was on it immediately. You needed tea? You had it. Blankets? Done. Taking a warm bath? Rohan was there getting it started.

“How are you feeling?” He’d ask, kneeling by the couch as you lay there covered by blankets, a heating pad resting against your lower belly “Do you need anything?” Your giggle catches him off guard at first, though a small flash of pain crept up when the cramps pulled at your tense muscles. He frowned when you were clearly showing signs of pain, not wanting you to feel hurt anymore despite it being a human function.

“Yeah, I could use one more thing.” You started to sit up and you pull your legs over so there was space beside you. For a moment he looks at you and you motion for him to join you at your side “I’d really like it if you sat with me for a little bit?” Your soft words made his heart flutter and feel a plethora of things as he moved to sit with you!

Your eyes had lit up and once he’s settled you’re quick to snuggle up to him, a chuckle pushed past his lips as he pulls you in close. While you both watched tv, he felt yourself beginning to drift off into a cat nap, the last thing you can remember is feeling a kiss on your head an a quick statement that left you dozing off with a smile,

“Rest well, y/n. I’ll be right here beside you when you wake up.”

Jotaro

When he noticed that you aren’t having the best of days and your cramps have really taken a toll on you, he’d normally assume that giving you space was the appropriate thing to do. But then again, maybe that was something he would’ve wanted.

He then catches you clutching your abdomen while using practically anything in your reach as leverage to keep standing, you try to play it off as just a thing that’s normal but he could tell it wasn’t very comforting for you. Immediately, Jotaro sought his way to the bathroom and began to prep a bath.

“Jotaro?” You question out loud, coming up to the bathroom doorway to see him sprinkling epsom salt in the now half full bath. “I’d hate to see you continue to be in pain, y/n. So please take time to relax and feel better.” He says, walking over to you before placing a kiss to your temple, the gesture sent a pinks hue to your cheeks “I’ll start dinner, okay?”

You smile warmly and he helps you to the tub side very carefully. Bending over, he sticks his hand under the running faucet to make sure the water wasn’t scalding and was a perfect temperature “Thank you for this, Jotaro.” You say as he pulls himself back up to full height, he features were more soft looking when he spoke,

“You’re welcome, hun. I’d do whatever I can if it meant you not feeling discomfort.”

[return-of-a-space-cowboy]

For the soulmate au how about 16 (you feel your soulmates pain) with Josuke?? But, like and it’s totally cool if you don’t wanna write this due to the content or whatever, but Josukes soulmate self harms and like he knows cause you know he can feel their pain and he wants to help them but when they finally meet his soulmate tries to reject him cause they don’t want to burden anyone with their problems/don’t feel worthy but, obviously, he isn’t just going to accept that. Thanks!

Was changed to bullied reader.

Shine on

(Yandere Josuke Higashikata 4 X female reader)

Your father sighed as he returned home.

"How was your day honey?" Your mother asked as she grabbed his briefcase and gave him a kiss.

"Oh it's was great" he replied, you knew he was lying through his teeth but it was a secret between the both of you. You let out a sigh of your own while you sat on the couch with an ice pack to your jaw.

"(Y/n) what happened?" Your father asked.

"I wasn't paying attention and banged into the wall" you also lied and he knew it.

"You've gotta be more careful, ok?" You father said.

"This is the third time this week you've gotten into some kind of accident" your mother said before returning to the dinner she was preparing in the kitchen.

You father slumped down next to you and loosened his tie before turning the volume up on the tv before turning to you.

"So what really happened?" He asked.

"I got punched in the face... I can assume that your day wasn't the best either?" You replied.

"Yeah... I just keep get pushed around at work" he sighed.

"I wish we could just leave this town" you sighed.

"Me too but I gave almost all the money I had for this place... And there's no way I'm going to find anothet suitable house like this anywhere else for the same price" he explained.

"Besides your mother loves it here" he continued.

✨✨✨

"Josuke what did I say about getting into fights?!" Tomoko scolded.

"But mom I didn't get into any fights" Josuke replied as he placed an ice pack on his bruised jaw.

"Then why do you have that bruise?" She asked.

"I just got it randomly, I just felt something hit my face and I got it ok" he argued causing her to let out a sigh.

"Fine" was the only word that left her lips as she rolled her eyes.

✨✨✨

You opened up you locker and let out a scream as a bunch of cicadas rushed out causing you to fall. You really hated bugs and your bullies knew it. You rubbed your head as you pushed yourself up into a kneeling position with the your other hand.

"Hey, are you ok?" A male asked as they pulled you up from under your arms and helping you too your feet.

"Yeah, just got a bit scared that's all" you replied in a shy tone as you turned around to see the delinquent with a Princely charm that all the girls were crazy about, Josuke Higashikata.

"I don't blame you, bugs are just gross and they always appear out of nowhere" he said as he pulled a disgusted face and shook a little.

"I haven't really seen you around Marioh, what's your name? He asked.

"Mine's (Y/n)... My family moved here a couple of weeks ago" you replied.

"We I'm sure your going to love it here" he said, not even bothering  to tell you his name; you probably already knew who he was.

You thought for a 'delinquent' he was rather outgoing. His bubbly personality almost made you forget how much you hated school until you noticed all the girls giving you icy glares.

"Well thanks for helping me up but I should really head off to my class" you said as you quick grabbed you stuff and shook of any remaining bugs before locking it.

Josuke noticed the way your attitude changed as he saw how the other girls looked at you and sighed, maybe he was just overthinking things.

"Alright, I hope that I can at least see you again soon" he responded as you ran off.

✨✨✨

The whole day had been a huge bore for you, your previous school use to be so much fun and you use to have so many friends but here you were just a nobody that no one really wanted to associate with, or at least in a nice way.

You had just finished cleaning up the classroom and was taking the trash to the furnace when three girls appeared from around the corner which caused you to drop the bad of rubbish as you heart skipped a beat in shock. You quickly grabbed the bag again and tried to walk past them but they stopped you.

"So your not even gonna say anything!" Hissed the girl with long black hair and dark brown eyes that had a distinctive mole under her eye, she reminded you of a woman from a horror manga your read not so long ago.

"I... Don't really have anything to say... I'm just taking out the trash" you mumbled in response.

"So you think you so above us! The nerves you've got to talk to Josuke!" The curly brunette spat.

"Wait... You guys are getting mad over that... He just helped me up, that's all" you stuttered as you stepped back.

"Oh he JUST helped you up, huh? THAT'S ALL?" The blonde growled.

"Do you not understand how lucky you are?!"

"You don't deserve his attention!"

"God, why would he have even wasted his time talking to a loser like you!" Their hate filled words trying to cut into you but you didn't show it.

Eventually the words turned to push and shove but you didn't fight back, it would only make things worse. One of the girls scratching your forehead with her fake nails, one coming off in the process.

"You, you ruined my nails!" She shrieked before delivering a low blow to your abdomen.

You fell to the floor, your head resting on the rubbish bag as you  curled up into a ball and tried to catch your breath. You looked in the corner of your eye to see a figure in the distance hunched over.

"Josuke?! Are you ok!" One of the girls screamed as she rushed over to him. You rolled over to get a better look to see Josuke better.

"What happened to you?" One of the other girls asked as they rushed over to him. One of the girls offered a hand to help him up but he simply slapped it away.

"I didn't think girls... could he vicious towards each other" he breathed as he got to his feet.

"But Josuke-"

"Get outta here, you think I'd care about a girl who hurts people!" He nearly yelled as he still held onto his stomach. The girls all looked in shock before they left without a word.

You finally managed to catch your breath before you tried to get to your feet only to fall down again.

"Hey (Y/n)! Are you ok?!" He asked as he ran over to you.

"Yeah... Just got a little winded... That's all" you huffed as you tried to get up again only to fall into his arms.

"You seem more then just winded" he commented.

"I didn't get the best sleep last night..." You commented before looking up at his face and noticed the counselor that had slowly been rubbed off his face during the day, revealing a bruise much like you own.

"That bruise... How did you get it" you asked.

"I should be asking you the same" he replied.

"Huh, what are you talking about?" You exclaimed as you tried to push away from him due to the awkwardness of the situation but he only pulled you closer.

"You have the exact same one hidden under sime counselor too, don't you?" He asked.

"And when those girls started attacking you I could feel it" he explained.

"Really, that's weird" you replied as you managed to squirm out of his grasp.

"I'm sorry but I gotta throw the trash away and get home before my parents get worried" you explained as you grabbed the rubbish bag and speed around the corner as your face turned completely red and your heart was going crazy.

'is this love?!' you thought to yourself.

'no no, what are you thinking, you can't just know someone for a day a think your in love!' another part of you mentally scream.

'besides what makes me so special?'

✨✨✨

Weeks had past since then and the bullying hadn't been as often as it usually was. Josuke would always try to talk with you when he could but you always wondered why he would bother to talk to you, you weren't much.

As you walked back home school but as the sky darkened you couldn't help but feel like you were being followed. You kept looking from side to side but you could see anyone. You turned a corner only to be grabbed by the shirt by a total stranger.

"So your the shrimp that made my little sister cry!" The male hissed.

"I don't know what you're talking about?!" You exclaimed.

"You know damn well, my sister comes home everyday in tears or is fuming about how you keep interfering with her life!" He growled.

"I don't know who your talking about or how I'm interfering with their life" you explained. The male's face only contoured into anger as he readied his fist to punch you.

You closed you eyes and waited for the blow but it never came.

You opened your eyes only to see another person behind you had caught it with one hand before they used their free arm to deliver a low blow to the male that made him fall to the ground and scramble away.

"(Y/n) you gotta be careful when it gets dark" the familiar voice lightly scolded. You turned around to see Josuke who flashed you a nervous smile.

"J... Josuke, thank you" you nervously thanked him.

"It's no problem... I can't have you getting hurt" he stuttered, hoping you wouldn't suspect that he had been stalking you.

"What brings you to this side of town at this hour, I thought you lived over the side?" You asked which made him mentally go into panic, he needed to make an excuse and quickly.

"Oh... I was just gonna check on my friend... Koichi, yeah he's been really sick lately..." He replied.

"Oh well I hope he gets better" you said as you were about to walk off only to have Josuke grab you hand.

"(Y/n), can I tell you something?" He nervously asked. He realised that it was his chance to ask you out.

"Ok, sure" you replied.

"I know we've only known each other for only a couple of weeks... but whenever I'm around you... I get butterflies in my stomach and my heart goes crazy... I really like you and I just wanted to ask you if you'd consider being my girlfriend?" He asked as a big goofy smile appeared on his face, desperately hoping you'd say yes.

You looked at him in shock, you couldn't deny that he was attractive, you had the same feelings but you want to ask him why he'd choose you...You couldn't understand why he'd ask you out. There were so many other girls who were smarter and prettier then you. He was out of your league.

"I'm... I'm sorry but I'm not interested in dating anyone as of yet" you replied, hoping he'd take the rejection lightly.

"Oh..." He only just managed to croak out as that smile disappeared from his face.

"I hope you can understand where I'm coming from, right?"

"Yeah, of course... You're not interested in dating in general, I can understand that" he replied.

"Good"

"Well I gotta head home now... See ya again I guess" you said before running off, partially because the awkwardness of being around a guy you just rejected and partially because you didn't want to worry your parents.

Josuke just stood there and watched you as you faded into the distance yet again like you usually did. He knew damn well you were lying through your teeth about the whole disinterest in dating, maybe you were scared about his wondering crowd of fangirls; some of them got really competitive about being around him.

He knew it was going to be a tough pursuit to win your heart but for you he was willing to do whatever it took.

✨✨✨

You opened up your locked expecting another parade of insects to tumble out but instead you found a little pink box that sat on-top of your stack of school books. You were hesitant to grab the box but also curious as to what could be in it.

You eventually grabbed it and gave it a light shake before opening it up just a smidge to make sure it wasn't a prank. Satisfied that it wasn't you opened it completely to see a beautiful silver chain and a heart shaped pendent with a large diamond in it along with a little folded piece of paper. You unfolded the paper to see a simple yet endearing message.

SHINE ON!

You knew it had to be from Josuke. You felt so bad knowing that he'd probably had to pay a lot of money to get that for you. You just wanted to find him and give it back to him, you weren't worth getting a necklace but until you saw him next you might as well wear it to remind you, so you put it on before grabbing you books and closing your locker.

Like every other day it just seemed to drag on at a snails pace and it was just draining to endure. During lunch you just sat in the classroom by yourself and ate while reading Tomie. It was tranquil but is was disturbed by the girl from the over day that was real life look alike of the hauntingly beautiful manga character.

"Heard you were with Josuke last night, so what's up with that?" She hissed.

"He just helped me, this guy grabbed me and was about to punch me when he showed up..." You explained.

"You're just an attention whore aren't you? Making out like your a poor girl whose done no wrong" she hissed.

"But what have I done wrong?" You asked.

"I'll tell you, you slut!" She screeched as she raised her hand above her head but before she could slap you Josuke grabbed her by the wrist.

"What did I say a couple of weeks ago?" He hissed at her.

"Josuke... Why are you all over this punny girl, you know you've got so many other girls that could give you so much more" she slyly replied as she tried to caress his cheek but some invisible force grabbed onto it. She desperately tried to move her hand but to no advil.

"What's happening?!" She cried out as she continued to struggle until you saw a hole go straight through her chest and her blood spill everywhere and within the blink of an eye it was all gone, almost as if it never happened.

She fell back and looked at the male in horror and confusion. You would have thought you were hallucinating but it was obvious that it happened by the way she held her chest, like the feeling echoed through her body.

The gravity of the room was almost suffocating as you saw Josuke the angriest you'd ever seen him.

"Josuke-" she muttered out only to be met by his wrath.

"You're pathetic! I don't want you or any other girl, I want (Y/n)! Now if you even think about laying a finger on her again I'll bring a world of pain on you!" He yelled, causing her to stumble once more before she could get on her feet. You stood up and tried to leave but some invisible force held you in place.

"Now get lost! And make sure to let everyone know that anyone that messes with my girlfriend is dead!" He added causing the girl to practically crawl out of the classroom in fear.

Josuke turned to you and his anger instantly faded.

"I'm sorry if I scared you, I'm just so sick of how everyone treats" he explained to you as he got closer. You wanted to speak but you just couldn't find the words. When he looked down to your neck and saw the necklace his eye lit up in joy.

"I knew you'd love it" he nearly beamed as he pulled you into a hug and spun you around before putting you down again.

"Josuke... It's a nice gift but I don't think I deserve it, you must have paid so much to get it... I'm not worth it" you explained as you took it off.

"Don't be so ridiculous-"

"And I told you this before, I'm not interested in dating" you explained.

"Oh come on (Y/n), if you're afraid of those other girls then don't be... They will never hurt you again, I promise" he said as he pulled you in by the waist.

"But Josuke-"

"Just give me a chance (Y/n), I'll be the best boyfriend you could ever ask for" he pleaded.

👋🏼 Hey Vy-chan!

Mmmm, if you had asked me to think of the most memorable scene from any of your fics, the first that comes to mind is the speech and song Tomoko-chan gave Sakumo and co. (I’m pretty sure it was Ch 14? of Civillian Pianist. Maybe 13 or 15 😅). The build-up of the entire chapter, the speech in-and-of itself, and the message through it all really struck out to me, and I don’t think I’ll ever forget it. ❤️ “Let’s Just Live,” more than the song itself, the way you incorporated it (and others) into your writing is and continues to remain beautiful and impactful. It’s something I think about every now and then, and the crescendo of emotion I get from rereading that scene always gets me.

When Tomoko and her family helped Sakumo... it felt like, she was also helping me. “Let’s Just Live” is a good reminder. Sakumo’s situation was/is a heavy topic, but... through it, you, and Tomo-chan, helped me find a lever to pull myself up when things get overwhelming, and I don’t remember if I ever thanked you for that.

It’s been rough for us all these past few, but thank you, Vy, for existing. Thank you for reminding us that Life is Worth Living. Thank you for your compassion, your kindness, your joy- for the shared times of grief and sadness and comfort- for the love, and friendship. *hugs* Sorry if I’m getting a bit sappy here haha 💕 I’ll probably die of embarrassment later asdfghjkl (//∩´﹏`∩//) but I refuse to take my words back, because you deserve them

[GIF Description: A looping gif of small kitsune girl Izuna from No Game No Life: Zero, where she gently smiles at the viewer. End Description.]

Thank you for sharing this with me, Kimi-chan. Civilian Pianist has since been missing from my inspiration muse, but reading this entire message and hearing your thoughts just reminded me why I started writing in the first place.

Kindness does do good, and I'm more than happy to know that I was able to help you with Tomoko. I'll definitely have to come back to her in both CP and S&S so that she gets her happy ending too. Sakumo's still happily living his in-story already.

For now, let me thank you, friend, for staying with me through these different fandoms and enjoying my work. Thank you for being my friend, and giving your support.

I'll keep doing my best to be me. For now, be as sappy as you want. :) I'm not gonna judge.
