#and being pissed at Homra like omg I took my eyes off him for one minute and you morons lost him

[ridiasfangirlings]

What if Yata was sent to a insane asylum after Saruhiko betrayed him. But the asylum did inhumane experiments on its patients, and they know Yata's a red clansmen, so they try to make his powers stronger than the red king's powers???

Who sends Yata to the asylum though, I don’t think Homra was that worried about his mental state. Oh maybe he like decides to start seeing a therapist, he’s been struggling to understand why Fushimi left and Kusanagi suggests that talking to someone might help. He gives Yata the card for a reputable place but Yata accidentally loses the card and tries to recall from memory where the place was. He tries asking around and some Strain guy mentions a place that ‘specializes in powerful people.’ Yata figures okay this must be the place Kusanagi mentioned and heads there, not realizing that it’s actually a shady place. The ‘doctor’ he talks to suggests Yata go to another location where they can help him even more and Yata has no idea the trouble he’s in until he’s jumped in the doorway of the other place and put in power-dampening restraints. 

Yata is told that the place he’s in is an insane asylum for people like him, people who think they have superpowers. Yata’s like wait but I do, isn’t this supposed to be a place where people like me can go. The doctors smile at him all oh dear he’s further gone than we thought and Yata finds himself locked up alongside all these Strains that have gone missing as well. The doctors are pleased to have finally managed to get their hands on a clansmen, these guys are maybe like disgraced members of some previous clan (like survivors of the previous Green or even Red clan or something, people who have only been very loosely monitored) who decided they want to do some experiments on the Slate. Since getting past Kokujouji isn’t possible for them they decided to try using Strains first with the hope that eventually they could even snag a clansman, and Yata’s ‘lucky’ enough to be their first Guinea pig. 

Obviously Homra soon becomes aware that Yata’s missing but maybe they don’t even pay it much mind at first, thinking well he’s still hurt by Fushimi leaving he must need some time alone. However Fushimi has noticed it, because of course he wants to find Misaki and be hated but there’s no Misaki. Maybe he’s even been feeling really odd and restless lately, like his scar feels as if it’s burning painfully and his heart keeps skipping a beat and he doesn’t know why. At some point Anna starts to feel uneasy and tells Mikoto they need to find Misaki and Kusanagi sends guys out to keep an eye out for him, becoming worried when he learns that Yata hasn’t even been seen at his part time job or at his apartment in ages.

Meanwhile poor Yata is being all drugged and tortured by the doctors at the asylum, who want to try and make their ‘own’ Red King, thinking like if they can crack the code to how one makes a King they can enhance their own powers. Maybe one of the guys worked for Mizuchi and thinks Mizuchi had the right idea but chose poorly, he tried to force someone who didn’t have the qualifications to be Blue King onto the throne. The Red King’s throne may be occupied but they figure what if we make someone who is a better candidate, who can usurp the throne, and Yata is the perfect test subject. Yata’s being tested on so much that he barely knows what’s happening, imagine he keeps thinking Fushimi is there and calling for him because he’s forgotten that Fushimi left. As the doctors start to experiment more though they become more lax with their safeguards, which is how Anna started to realize something was wrong and it also gets the attention of S4. Munakata thinks this might be a good chance for Fushimi to show off his worth and tasks him with gathering intel on what could be going on, Fushimi thinks this should be easy and of course was not expecting to find a familiar face inside the building….
