I FOUND AN ASOAYA WEDDING DRAWING WE WON

[moonbyulsstuff]

Hi hi !! May I ask for a scenario with Ayano Aishi and female reader?? After months of work, and getting rid of the rivals the reader accepted Ayano's confession. But, the reader regrets this decision by how possessive Ayano is( the reader has not gone back home since she accepted her confession and misses her family), and slowly discovers her "hobbies".

Sorry if this is too long, you can ignore the details if you want.

Thank you and take care! <33

You're Mine.

Female Reader.

Requested.

Masterlist.

Request Rules.

It was all a mistake. She shouldn't have accepted Ayano's confession.

And thanks to her accepting the girl's confession, she's now trapped in Ayano's room. With an chain on her ankle, preventing her from escaping.

She was going crazy at this point, no matter what she says, Ayano won't let her go with the pretense that someone else will steal her away from her. [Name] began to deeply regret the choice of accepting her confession in the first place.

[Name] doesn't know how many days since then, she was worried about her family. She knows they are probably looking for her, worried sick.

She starts to miss them, and it has lonely. The curtains were pitched black and the windows tinted to dark black, so she doesn't know what time it is. She was only allowed to watch the TV in Ayano's room and her phone was taken away.

[Name] looked back at the door as it was opened, and went in Ayano's father, Jokichi. His empathic eyes were visible, he put the tray of food down on the floor in front of [Name] who began to eat it.

The male watched as the girl ate the food, he wanted to help her escape but at the same time he knew of the consequences if he does. His daughter would be heartbroken and being angry at him while his wife would do the same, in the pretense that he doesn't want to see his daughter be happy.

It's not like he hasn't tried, he did. But it failed.

He does want to see his daughter happy, anything. A normal girl who's not like her mother but he was proven wrong... he guessed what Ryoba said to him was right.

The girls in the Aishi family will always turn out like this and he shouldn't have expected this.. he should have done something or told his daughter something.

Jokichi eventually left with the plate as [Name] was now all alone back in Ayano's room.

She had expected Ayano's parents to be mortified when Ayano showed that she had basically kept her as a prisoner, but instead. Her mother, Ryoba, became delighted and praised Ayano while Jokichi was a having a instant realization.

And now.... she was here... all alone...

Ayano would come home from school and began to cuddle with her like nothing was wrong, like keeping her as a prisoner in her room was not wrong.

After a few hours, she was now lying on Ayano's bed, curled up into a bell.

The door then opened as she looked behind and saw Ayano coming in, a huge smile on her face as she greeted her girlfriend. "[Name]!"

Ayano crawled into the bed and hugged her, [Name] just laid there on the bed. Unmoving, stiff as a board but Ayano didn't mind as long she can hold her girlfriend, everything is fine.

[Name] clenched her eyes, she can remember the first time she was forced to be here. It was just the 1st week since they started dating, and when [Name] came to visit Ayano on her home. All of a sudden, she wasn't allowed to go home.

Ayano threatening her if she goes and forcibly trapped her in her room and making sure she won't go away from her.

She could remember how scared she was when Ayano showed a side that she never knew, hell, no one knew. It scared her, it scared to the point she has no choice but obey Ayano.

Scared of how dangerous she was being.

Ayano nuzzled her face happily against [Name] neck, inhaling her scent. "How's your day [Name]?" Ayano asked as [Name] clenched her fist and bit her lip, preventing herself from saying something sarcastic.

In fear Ayano will not like the answer and it will happen again like last time.

"G-Good..." The black haired hummed happily as she tighten her arms around [Name] waist, pulling her even closer to her body. Her black eyes glanced down at [Name].

"Father didn't let you escape like last time right?" [Name] slowly nodded, she could remember the last time Jokichi tried to help her escape. It didn't help, Ryoba and Ayano got mad at Jokichi, and Ryoba being disappointed at her own husband. The two were basically guilt tripping Jokichi.

A smile etched in Ayano's face. "Good... he shouldn't mingle with things that aren't his business.." Ayano said with a dark undertone in her voice, [Name] gulped as her mind wander off to her family. Wondering on how they were, her friends too.

A single tear escaped down her face.

'Someone... please... get me out of here...'

[happypoppyhaha]

This story will be about Ayato and Taeko plus the 10 male rivals competing for her love. But it's rewrite in my own way.

(The plot will be Taeko trying to fix Ayato to not kill her friends or anybody she cares about because she didn't have any evidence against him and trying to warn the rivals about him. Ayato on the other half doesn't want to walk in his father's footsteps because of how much despair his mother was in when entering a relationship with him. Ayato for once tries not to be selfish and wants to change things for the bloodline because Taeko is crying about it) Yes Ryoba and Jokichi are genderbend so their names will be Ryōbo and Jokai.

Taeko realizes he is mentally unstable and needs help, he doesn't want her to be seen as a cure for him or act crazy to anyone who tries to sway her in a romantic way. So she is trying to help him while trying to make him back off of the male rivals.

I decided to give Taeko personality and flesh her out more. I feel like she would be more expressive and outgoing as a girl instead of sitting down by a water fountain and reading a book. This will personality type will be attractive and make sense why Ayato likes her and the other male rivals. And I'll flesh out Ayato's character too, I'll give him a few traits

I'll change the intro where Ayano bumps into Taro and immediately falls in love with him when literally he just lends her a hand like any person would. That's not enough chemistry for me to believe she really loves him and would kill for him.

Backstory:

He needs love, he will feel emptiness and lonely without a feeling of affection. Due to being neglected by his parents arguing and having conflicts. Ryōbo trying to raise a murderer instead of raising a son and Jokai lash out on him for that, not wanting a girl to be in her position and became a victim like her. Making the family unstable causing him to be unstable as well. Any family issues will also affect the child. This causes Ayato to be angry at his father for not giving him the proper love he needed as a child and sad at how his mom how mind broken she was. One day, his mother just snapped and tried to kill Ryōbo and Ayato, believing it was too late for her to stop him becoming just like his father, trying to wipe out the bloodline so the madness would stop. (Twisted thinking but this is the result of being kidnapped and isolated, broken) But Ryōbo apprehended her before fully doing it. This causes his parents to go to America trying to get themselves clean before entering back into Ayato's life. After experiencing that event, Ayato was empty and feeling sorrow. But this was in childhood, his brain blocked out the trauma but the cells in his body can remember it.

I'll make an intro where Taeko is his first female friend he ever made. He didn't make one because he was seen as the kid who has issues going on at home and gossiping that his daddy was a criminal before. Making him an outcast in kindergarten and middle school up until Highschool (but exchanged since students and teachers know his dad's history) where Taeko bumps into him because she doesn't know she's going and asks him for help to search her classes and know the schedule. So he does help her out without any thinking to it, the next day. She appreciates him for helping her not out of obligation. By giving him a bento and becoming more chatty with him. Ayato feels the attention and the affection that he longed for so long and became so attached to her. Delusion, this is where he starts feeling the love bond and convinced that they're truly connected but Taeko doesn't see him in that way. He slowly building up courage and making a love poem of his confession towards her. Planning to give it to her the next day but someone, he see as a rival comes up, Osano. He plans on killing him right off the bat but there's always a person besides him, Ryuto. (Raibaru).

Only show strong emotions when it involves Taeko. Like being infuriated when someone trying to romanize the conversation with her or take her time away when it supposed to be them hanging out. If it's not Taeko involved, he'll have a dead face not wanting anything to do with the person unless they have his interests. But he will put up a front when a situation is necessary to express like a investigation or someone observing him to avoid any suspicion of his true nature or not to have a low reputation, being gossiped about.

(I didn't want him to be exactly like Ayano where she just admires him far away but doesn't start up a conversation when he's free)

Ayano wants Senpai so she can feel emotions since he was the only person that brought out the emotions out of her. And wanting more of that emotion so she chases after Senpai since he is giving her more of that. She thrives for that. I made it different. Ayato thrives for affection since he did not receive any of it during childhood, Taeko shows him affection and he chases after her because she is willing to give that to him and actually acknowledge his existence. To make it more yandere-like.

(Feel like to ask more about this or what more to rewrite about)

Dreaming Of You

Genre: Angst, Fluff

Summary: The spark Togo felt for Ryoba the day she helped him beat up a local gang never disappeared. After over 30 years she still holds a special place in his heart, and perhaps someone feels the same way.

Togo leaned on his bedside windowsill whilst smoking a cigarette. He gazed up at the night sky, thinking of her. He felt stupid for not being able to let go of the decades old memory of the married woman. He had his chance yet he couldn’t even build up the courage to confess his love to her.

Ryoba Aishi was the most beautiful name he had ever heard. Ryoba Aishi – the girl who was crazy enough – to help him fight off a local gang back in the 80s. Back then, Togo admired Ryoba’s courage yet at the same time was alarmed by it. How could a girl from a seemingly normal family be so bold? Ryoba was one of a kind, a once-in-a-lifetime woman for sure.

Togo took a hit, wondering if Ryoba ever reminisces on her moments with him as he does to her. Togo disregarded that thought: Ryoba was happily married. He deeply inhaled as he let his thoughts wander to senior prom of 1989.

“You want to go to prom with me?” Asked Ryoba with a dumbstruck expression, there weren’t many things that caught her off guard.

“Togo.. I'm sorry but my heart belongs to someone else.” The raven-haired girl spoke with remorse there weren’t many things that made her feel bad. Ryoba killed people weekly and felt nothing, yet her heart sank when she rejected one boy she didn’t even love. What was going on?

Togos’ smile slightly faltered, his grip on the bouquet he was holding tightened. He gritted his teeth at the sharp pain he felt in his heart. The delinquent slowly started laughing in a mocking tone to cover up any hint that Ryoba’s rejection hurt him.

"You actually thought I was asking you out to that stupid dance, huh? The guys dared me to do that shit for a good chunk of cash. Don't get me wrong though Ryoba, you're cool.” Togo swiftly threw the flowers to the ground and turned his heel. He felt his body tremble as he took deep breaths, trying to ignore his heart.

Ryoba watched him walk away with a bittersweet feeling. Something wasn’t right. Ryoba had won Jokichi’s heart and was now dating him, so why did she care about Togo’s feelings? Why did she care about the falter in his smile? Why was she standing feeling as if she were put on trail for her emotions?

Ryoba loved Jokichi, and only Jokichi right?

Then something in Ryoba’s head clicked and she no longer cared for how Togo felt. All that mattered was her boyfriend. She had done the impossible for him, Togo didn’t matter, nobody did. All that mattered was Ryoba’s love for Jokichi.

She went to walk in the opposite direction something forced her to pause. She turned her head and stared at the bouquet. What was it now? Why was she stopping? It was just a basic bouquet. She slowly looked around to see if anyone was watching her. Hastily, she scooped the bouquet up and hurried home.

Now, thirty years later, Ryoba sat by her kitchen windowsill. Her husband and daughter were sound asleep, the two of them symbolizing the life Ryoba had made for herself. She held a cup of tea in her hand, taking a sip every so often as she stared out at the night sky. In her other hand, she held a photo book filled with memories of her youth.

She took a sip of her hot tea before looking back down at the page she had settled at. A bittersweet feeling settling in her as she felt herself slightly smile. Despite them being pressed, those flowers still looked as beautiful as they did that spring evening back in 1989.

[selenestarmoon]

We know that in the ending of Yandere Simulator 1980 mode Saisho kidnapped Jokichi after Ryoba had already kidnapped him and tells her in a letter to go find him and in the game in the present day it is implied that Ryoba works for Saikou Corp. and that Ichiro, son of Saisho and current CEO of Saikou Corp., tolerates the presence of Ayano, Ryoba's daughter, in Akademi even though Megami (Ichiro's daughter) and Kocho Shuyona (Akademi school principal) don't trust Ryoba and Ayano and they would be happy if she didn't attend Akademi to which many wonder why Saisho and later his son Ichiro would hire the woman who tarnished the reputation of the school he founded and I have a theory that I want to share.

Do any of you remember, have seen or heard of House of Cards, Berserk and Metal Gear Rising?

The story of House of Cards is about Frank Underwood, a politician who aspires to be president of the United States and ends up being elected at the cost of damaging the reputation of his rivals, but for this Frank could not act directly because that would tarnish his image, which is why Doug Stamper do the dirty work for him.

On the other hand in Berserk, Griffith aspires to be king by gaining the king's favor for the victories of the Band of the Hawk but he has many enemies and there are also contenders like Adonis who had the right to marry Charlotte, the daughter of the king, and Griffith could not allow this to happen so he orders Guts to get rid of Julius and Adonis and later organizes a plan to get rid of the nobles and the queen who want him dead without anyone suspecting him except Minister Foss whom he blackmails by using his daughter to help him with his plan.

And the last, Senator Steven Armstrong, the main antagonist of Metal Gear Rising, dreamed of making the United States a strong country with people who follow their own ideals with their own strength, so Armstrong respected those who managed to overcome adversity using their own strength and following their own ideals as Jetstream Sam and Raiden did that even Armstrong wanted to recruit them (only he managed to recruit Sam but not Raiden).

In the game there are several indications of this:

- In Kocho Shuyona's tapes where he mentions how he is upset with Ryoba for everything she has done and doesn't want her to return to Akademi and doesn't want to give her the graduation diploma but Saisho convinces him to let her go back to school and graduate.

- In another of the tapes Kocho mentions that while he was at the Saikou Corp. headquarters all the employees treated him normal but when he sees Ryoba at the headquarters and he asks why she is there every employees stopped talking to him and started ignoring him as if he wasn't there, implying that Ryoba works for Saiko Corp. but they don't want to elaborate on the subject.

- Another clue is that in one of the tapes from the basement of Ryoba's house, Jokichi asks her what will happen to their jobs if they go to America, to which she replies that she talked to her boss (who is currently Ichiro, current CEO of Saiko Corp.) and he gave him permission to leave (this could imply that Ichiro knows that Ryoba wants to go to America to finish off the journalist and Ichiro agrees that the journalist disappear for fear that he, because of of the Ryoba incident, uncover and expose the company's shady dealings that take place in the shadows and that Ryoba is running them).

- Another indication is, as I mentioned earlier, that Kocho and Megami don't want Ayano to study at Akademi and are openly hostile towards her because of her lineage but it is implied that they both tolerate her on Ichiro's orders: when Kocho knocks out Ayano with his taser and then he talks to Ichiro telling him that there is no deal, this implies that he only let Ayano enroll in Akademi on Ichiro's orders by having a deal with him and on the other hand when Megami talks to Ayano through a video call he explains that she can't stand her and that if it were up to her she wouldn't allow Ayano to attend Akademi but she can't do anything about it because her father tolerates Ayano for some reason unknown to Megami.

What I'm getting at is that Saisho maintained his company at the cost of shady things below, but if he did those jobs himself, his reputation, and by extension that of his company, would be tarnished by what he needed to have his own Doug Stamper or Guts for did his dirty work for him and what better person to do that kind of work than a serial killer who tarnished Akademi's reputation, killed girls and manipulated others without even hesitating and manipulated an entire country into thinking that was she innocent? It would simply be a win-win situation for Saisho and Ryoba: Saisho would have someone to run his company's shady deals and do the dirty work for him and he would even have the Aishi family at his family's disposal to do the dirty work for his descendants just as Ryoba does for him and Ryoba would make up for the damage she caused to Akademi's reputation, and by extension to Saikou Corp., and she would manage to be on good terms with Saisho and his family while working for them people would see her as a normal woman who like any other has a decent job as an office worker in a respectable company, which would make her the suspicions that will remain on her will be reduced to almost zero.

On the other hand, Saisho and Armstrong are extremist patriots who hate the current condition of their beloved countries (Japan for Saisho and the United States for Armstrong) but hide this rejection to use that condition that they detest so much to their advantage. Furthermore, Saisho respects Ryoba and wanted to recruit her for the same reasons that Armstrong respects Raiden and wanted to recruit him: they both see Ryoba and Raiden as the type of people they want in their ideal society in their respective countries (strong people, without weaknesses and who are governed by their own efforts and ideals and do not let morality stop them from achieving their goals).

[nonokoko13]

Ohhhhh, that's so embarrassiiiing! Well... what is it? What did you want to tell me?

Inspired by this post of @kirnx-art , I made this "what if..."

⥥Headcanons and more under the cut ⥥

Ryoba is holding the knife in the other hand but I didn't realize it wouldn't be seen until I made her sketch

❐ Observing her body language Ryoba dismissed it. Sumire never seemed to be a good actress, less to someone who pretends everyday like her. Deciding she wasn't a threat to get senpai's love, she hid the weapon back in her pocket.

❐ The grey-haired kindly rejected Sumire, reassuring the redhead that she didn't have a negative opinion on the same-gender love and telling her they could stay as friends if she was okay with it, which Sumire agreed.

❐ Sumire had made up her mind about the impending rejection and brush it off to not make her friend feel guilty, although she cried that night at home.

❐ After this Ryoba would ignore her, but with the police around after the first murder at school she would use Sumire to maintain her sweet schoolgirl facade. How could she commit a crime when she's with her friends in another place?

❐ Ryoba approaches Sumire after the second week with the act that she wished to spend time together. The gullible girl is unsure of it due her thought that Ryoba only does this because she's a sweet person and pities her but accepts.

❐ Sumire soon realizes Ryoba's feelings for Jokichi, and supports her friend fiercely. Believing Ryoba would do the same for her like a good friend does, she tried her best to help her, whether it was talking about romance or distracting someone like Aishi asked her "to be alone with the boy".

❐ Playing friends and excusing herself to "do something" to get rid of the competence became the Aishi's routine, without realizing she started to feel different about her initial target. She enjoyed her company.

❐ But when she finally defeated the ten obstacle she's upset. That day she's going to confess to senpai and make her dream come true, why she's not excited about it?

❐ The moment of the detention Sumire witnessed the police arresting Ryoba. She volunteered herself to testify on behalf of the accused, completely sure of her innocence.

❐ After the trial Ryoba had a breakdown. She couldn't confess to Jokichi with all that happened.

❐ Her confession was interrupted, and she even knew why she didn't want to be by her senpai's side anymore. The dream she pursued since kid seemed empty to her.

❐ Without signals of her for days Sumire went to her house. When Ryoba saw her something made click. She felt how she was back with Jokichi's presence.

➸ General headcanons

❐ Ryoba waited for a Friday to confess to Sumire properly, this time fulfilling her dream of confessing under the cherry tree.

❐ Sumire never held a grudge against Jokichi, but she didn't like him either. Her opinion was neutral until she saw how many girls were drawn to him in matter of days; initially only fearing he could break Ryoba's heart and worsening when some girls around him found terrible fates or were mysteriously gone.

❐ Sumire suspected that Jokichi was the killer of the only girl they found dead, unaware the detective do caught the real killer.

❐ Sumire's parents were surprised she hadn't told them before about her crush on a girl. They never imagined she liked girls but they were happy to see her with someone who made her smile like that. And they still think Ryoba is a lovely woman.

❐ Ryoba's family was unfazed by this: boy or girl or both a lover is a lover. Her mother was glad she got away of any suspicions and her father... Well, he's brainwashed to love his wife so he doesn't have an opinion of anything.

❐ In order to have biological children I imagine three ways:

They decided to use IVF, being the pregnant one Ryoba because Sumire was a bit scared of giving birth at the moment. Later they could have had another baby with Sumire as the biological mother. I find this option compatible with the last one

Sumire is AMAB (AFAB as Subaru), she got her top surgery and she waited to have at least one baby before getting a bottom surgery. Ayano/Ayato would be biologically from both so they could get a change in their color eyes/hair.

Ryoba would have gone to Saiko for an alternative where the baby could have both her and Sumire ADN; they're top in everything, if someone could do that was them. They had to wait until the founder's son was in charge of the company since Saisho was a conservative man with a strong dislike for the lgbt collective (Yeah I hc him as lgbtphobic). That's how the Aishi made a deal with Saiko Corp., although it's unknown what he asked in exchange.

❐ Ryoba/Ryosuke is likely bi/demi while the Sumire/Subaru of this AU is homosexual/pansexual.

❐ Ryoba is 8-10 cm taller than Sumire, even as a boy Sumire would still be slightly shorter than her. Ryosuke is around 180s cm. An example:

Their ship name could be phantom killer

[stingywiththeirusername]

Yandere Simulator AU Idea: Ayano being Kenchi's Twin.

Had a weird thought but what if Ayano was Kenchi's twin and she was kidnapped by Ryoba because both her or Jokichi were infertile but desperately wanted a kid (Jokichi because he wanted a child to love after the whole mindbreak and Ryoba both to fulfill her darling's wishes and to continue the Aishi bloodline). Maybe originally they had planned to adopt but Ryoba somehow found the twin babies of the Saikou family and was infatuated with one of them so she planned arduously and managed to get her hands on the one she wanted.

Of course they had illegal means in order to make sure the Saikou family wouldn't find out what happened. Since Ryoba had used the Yakuza in order to eliminate or gain cash, she contacted them and paid a hefty fee in order to hide and scramble Ayano's information. Jokichi helped, at this point he was mindbroken but he too fell in love with Ayano and desperately wanted to have her as his child.

In order to make sure Ayano wouldn't be connected to the missing Saikou child, her birth year was accelerated one year and until her hair could be dyed, she was homeschooled and thus her only world was her "parents".

When Ayano could go to school she had to dye her hair and her parents would repeatedly tell her the dangers of the outside world to dissuade Ayano from reaching out for help in case she realized how unhealthy her "family" was but because of the conditioning her "mother" did and the suffocating affection her "father" gave she becomes emotionless and instead acted out emotions. The only one who she couldn't act emotionless was her parents, Ryoba because she knew what it was like, and Jokichi because Ayano could still feel emotions with him and did love her father.

When Ayano attended Akademi High and met with Taro, she became obsessed with him. It wasn't because of romantic reasons, no, she became obsessed with Taro because he looked like her father and her mother always told stories of how Jokichi saved Ryoba from a life filled with pain and Ayano wanted that, she wants to run away from her life and be whisked away from the life she has.

However, Ryoba finds out about it and is delighted so she would force Ayano to kill/sabotage/matchmake her rivals with extra help from Info-chan (who knows what the Aishis have done despite Ayano not being an Aishi in blood) and from Ryoba who keeps tabs on her daughter and wants to fully immerse an outsider by the Aishi's "curse".

Throughout the weeks, Ayano is being coached, watched over, and forced to eliminate her rivals when she instead just wants to go up to Taro and ask for his help. The pressure of Info-chan taunting Ayano to kill using blackmail (that being the Aishi bloodline) and Ryoba's motherly and gentle voice telling Ayano what to do in a sort of sickening enthusiastic way wormed itself within Ayano that, eventually, this culminates to Ayano killing a rival and feeling immense guilt and trauma that she further retreats into her shell, with every kill/sabotage she slowly loses her obsession with Taro instead becomes fearful.

At first Megami looks at Ayano as a dangerous person because of her "mother" and has the rest of the Student Council watching over, until one day one of the members say that the most peculiar thing happened.

Ayano's roots were silver. In a moment of carelessness on Ayano's part due to exhaustion from Muja because she clearly didn't deserve the fate that befell to her, she forgot to dye her hair when it showed hints of her original hair color but nobody sans the Student Council knew because the latter were focused on Ayano. Megami takes a closer look at Ayano and realizes those sharp eyes resemble more of her father's eyes and her facial structure resembled closely to her mother. Shaken, Megami uses the remaining weeks investigating Ayano's origin and finds the dodgy history she has that had been covered up by the Yakuza.

Megami comes to the horrifying realization that Ayano is her sister and desperately wants to protect Ayano when she uncovers what has happened. Ayano would avoid Megami due to her being a Saikou and her parents always warned her about them especially with her mother continuously reminding her never to be close with them. Megami can't even say anything to Ayano because not only is Ayano avoiding her, she is too deep into her despair. With Megami realizing what has happened, she instantly calls Kenchi who had been wrought over his sister's disappearance and desperately wanted her back because the pressure his family has given him is too painful and he can't seek out comfort to anyone/anywhere, Kenchi thinks if his sister is with him then everything will be alright so he desperately tried to search for her but because Ichirou had experience with this from his own siblings, he instead locks up Kenchi with Megami the only one able to go out as "freely" as she could which grows Kenchi's resentment over her.

Megami wants to work together with Kenchi, not only to retrieve their sister but to also mend the bond between older sister and younger brother. However she gets news from the Saikou family that Ryoba found out that Megami figured out Ayano's true identity and has thus returned back to Japan to get back Ayano before the Saikou family can.

During Megami's week, instead of it being Ayano eliminating Megami it is instead changed to Megami trying to take back her sister as much as she can.

And that's about it~! Good lord I've been watching too many What If Yandere Simulator Aus...

[sakis-sweets]

Uh idk if you still do headcanons n stuff but can you make some for the shopkeepers of 1980s Mode? I really love them to death! It's alright if you can't

did i ever do headcanons for characters alone? i know there was a time when people asked my opinion on different pairings but idk about headcanons for characters all by themselves, but i can try! (they kinda talk a lot about familial/platonic/romantic relationships but i tried to keep it central to the character)

Hardware Store clerk: definitely a butch lesbian. her dad has a car shop and she probably got her scar in an accident while she was helping him out, and now he won't let her near a car out of guilt so she works at the hardware shop instead. she doesn't own that shop but she's on track to buy it from the owner when they retire, and then she'll give her dad a discount if he's still working. her mom is still in the picture she's just a daddy's girl. no siblings probably. she doesn't like cars that make a lot of noise, thinks it devalues the car.

Manga Store clerk: maybe bi with a preference for men? her family is probably embarrassed by her so she doesn't talk to them much. she's just happy doing her thing even if people look down on her. she finds friends in her comics so who needs the real world? of course her tune would change quickly if she found friends that would accept her but that is unlikely. her favorite genre is heart-wrenching slice of life stories like clannad, but she'd probably like angel beats too despite the supernatural elements. she doesn't judge other people because she doesn't like being judged, but she doesn't hold it against others for judging her either, because that's what's considered normal. she's just in her own little world not giving a fuck haha

Hair Salon clerk: no label bc she doesn't even think about things like that. she's probably a sociopath; pure logic, no empathy. she has some shallow friendships to keep up appearances and is in contact with her family. hair cutting is the easiest way for her to be in close contact with sharps without setting off alarm bells. murderous chefs are a common trope, but murderous hairstylists? definitely not. her parents want her to get married and she's considered it just for the sake of seeming normal but decided it would be too inconvenient and risky. i wanna say she lives vicariously through ryoba but didn't yandev say they fell out of touch after ryoba kidnapped jokichi? i don't strictly remember

Lingerie Store clerk: 100% straight but can never get a good guy. permanent rose-tinted glasses. good guys run because of her job (1980's Japan can't be all that sex-positive) but bad guys know she's easily exploited. her friends hear about her guy problems all the time but they don't give her advice (she ignores it) and are just there for her. she's the sweetest and nicest person in their group (but not the designated mom friend) so they're content to deal with her frequent breakups. her sense of style is impeccable and she likes to help her friends with buying clothes a lot. will she ever find true love???

Electronic Store clerk: married girlboss, childless bc she wants to focus on her career. she's very calm and makes people feel relaxed, i.e. more vulnerable to large electronic purchases. her husband is very proud of her but he does make more from his boring desk job so his ego is safe. she's the mom friend in the lingerie store clerk's group (another reason she says for not having kids: "i already have to raise my friend, we can have a baby once she marries a nice man") and is the least girly in the group, but only because everyone else is super femme. they've all been friends since college. very good at selling technology, not very good at working it or fixing it.

Game Store clerk: would probably be best friends with manga clerk, maybe more, but they never cross paths. also definitely a lesbian. very whacky/quirky, energetic, and because of that most people find her annoying and geeky and won't associate with her. she hosts DND and is a great dm; nerd guys think romantically of her when they meet her bc she's a nerd girl but quickly lose interest when they get to know her, so she has a lot of guy friends. she's not super concerned about meeting anyone romantically, she's just happy with her DND groups and her games. thinks she'll help pioneer a new generation of fine entertainment.

Convenience Store clerks: this is when i remembered mulberry made posts for all of the 1980's clerks and rushed to see if i had missed any canon info, luckily i didn't, except for these two, there actually is information but it seems to rely on pre-existing knowledge that i do not have. what twins in 202X is she referring to?? i think they're friends.

Gift Store clerk: very shy, trying to figure herself out. tries a new aesthetic every couple months but can never find the right one. hoping to find the perfect outfit that will magically make her confident and likeable. works at a gift shop to fund her expensive shopping hobby, but her parents also spoil her rotten and help her out. still lives at home, no higher education. hoping for a dramatic college debut once she finds herself.

hope these are alright!
