#and now im thinking about marrying Eisuke

[brixzli]

I dreamt about marrying Eisuke and I'm

[yakocchi]

so as you might remember a long time ago (like march-ish) there was a sort of election between premade pairs of the active voltage series. the top 5(?) were to be given special stories where you* get to help decide what the story will be about.  *ok not everybody, u had to have voted for that pairing in that prior election but i mean thats a low entry point unless u threw ur free vote away somehow

the surveys are in 3 stages, where the first stage is all about the general setting of the story and the second about the story’s specific “situation”. The third stage, going on now, is to finally choose the specific situation. i’d like to complain discuss the first 2 survey results of the kbtbb story bc i voted on it hahee

sorry that the graphs are ugly... but my excuse is that the pie graphs are from Voltage themselves and im too lazy to set up a less ugly one on excel

further translations and rambling behind the cut

the pie graphs encompass the first stage of surveys. they came with small comments:

with the first question (what is your ideal theme), they mention that there’s a lot of interest about getting to see the jealous side of eisuke and soryu when it comes to being jealous towards each other for once. it’s an interesting point bc yea there has been plenty of stories about them being jealous of other charas, but never really jealous towards each other. hm

.......but also, remember those love triangle substories... the real question is why they didn’t just team up eisuke and soryu there hmm??? weh??? thats been the most obv pairing since the stegosaurus roamed the earth, no? maybe they knew if they did that the interest for the other resulting pairings in those stories wouldve plummeted

eisuke may have won in the general polling in terms of relationship status,  but the following comment mentions that there is interest in having the choice of getting to choose between the two (which was what i was leaning towards) or the idea of being in a relationship with one of them already and then the other guy harbors this illicit love for u regardless.... which...

lol i kid. admittedly ive never been big on bc i just feel bad for the other guy. esp if his competition is to be eisuke or soryu man that cant be pretty. like, an average dude can probably take down ota in a fight. wats that guy gonna do, throw some tubes of daniel smith at u? but with someone like soryu u might as well save urself the time and throw ur own self off the cliff, let the wildebeest tramble u

intrigued by what the ppl who voted for “the mc doesn’t show up” were going for. eisuke x soryu story? i mean... (✿╹◡╹) if they ever provided the choice...

so with much thinking, the resulting story theme is to be: A story where, in the same setting as the typical kbtbb universe, you fall into a love triangle with Eisuke and Soryu.

 the results of the second stage is all text bc you were just supposed to type out your ideal scenario etc. the answers they chose to share are:

“The both of them invite you to a party as their partner”, where you would see the sparks fly between them as they’d compete for the right to be your partner for the party. mmm classic. but a good one

“The two of them work together to save the MC from being abducted by a hostile organization and married against her will” bc it would be very cool to see them come together to save her. i mean, i get it bc the best part of kbtbb main routes is when eisuke and soryu pop out of nowhere from their helicopter, boat, unicycle, etc. and save mc and her admittedly-not-as-cool man

.........”The three of you get trapped in a locked room together” and naturally if they ever wrote this the room would be very small to force close contact..... 

the second part of this stage is a specific scene you’d like to see in your ideal situation:

one person wants a sort of scene where the MC is cleaning as usual when the both of them say “Hey, come here” and then the fight begins. mmm

another is one where they say phrases they usually would never say, but finally come out... out of jealousy. a sort of situation where eisuke and soryu finally lose their composure

anyway the last stage is to finally vote on what prompt you want.  bc it’s a “secret meeting” right now, i don’t really want to get super specific on what the choices were but they’re... not anything groundbreaking or too scandalous, lol.  the one i voted for wasn’t even mentioned beforehand on those results........ the voltage writers’ table really didn’t want to do anything too crazy, i suppose. the way they wrote the prompts (save one) are all pretty vague sounding too, probably to give them leeway. 

hmmm not super satisfied about how it turned out but i mean........ 1 eisuke and soryu story is better than none

thanks for reading my rambling!! the survey closes at around the 10th so let’s hope the actual story comes out before uh... october i would hope lol

What’s your favorite game right now?

Kissed by The Baddest Bidder is the current obsession, also love Mystic Messenger. 

Who’s your favorite character?

From kbtbb, Mamoru Kishi, but I genuinely adore the whole cast of kbtbb, even the ones I claim to hate. Mystic Messenger, Yoosung is the bias, but I also again love them all. Outside of those games, Namba (HLITF), Mitsunari (SLBP), Ieyasu (SLBP), Kunihiko (MFW), Jinpachi (SND), Muriel (The Arcana), theres a lot. 

What is your least favorite game?

Seven Hotties All My Husband, while I love Celise so much, the way they handled non-con in one of the character’s routes (the one with glasses, I can’t remember the name of) was just a big oof for me. Like, no warning and it was for a paid option, I’m not here for that.  That combined with the not so great translation pushed it into being deleted. Please, someone put Celise in a better game. 

For voltage, I’d say my least favorite title is probably be My Wedding and 7 Rings

Who’s your least favorite character?

Leon from SCM, if you like him I respect it, but I can’t. His main story and him were really gross to me personally. I can’t like him at all. 

Who’s your favorite character for the worst?

Seven Hotties All My Husband; Celise clearly, he’s so sweet and adorable. I also love genderbendery characters. 

My Wedding and 7 Rings; Hiroto, my god damn ossans. 

Who are the hottest characters?

Namba from HLITF, holy shit, my god. He is without a doubt just the hottest voltage dude in my opinion. Everything about him is so attractive, I really need more content for him. 

V/Jihyun from Mystic Messenger is, not really hot, so much as fucking gorgeous. Like, fuck I love his cgs and just his aesthetic so much. 

Muriel from the Arcana, hits a lot of kinks for me, long hair and tall as fuck. Plus he’s a soft boy, I wanna see him blush constantly. 

Shingen from SLBP, I played him first in that just cause I was so drawn to his physical looks, like holy shit. Same thing with Sasuke his ninja body double, like fuck. 

Shunichiro from IM, he’s my favorite poster boy, the absolute best poster boy 10/10, he fucking radiates sex appeal. 

Who’s the funniest characters?

Roy/Alan from Pirates In Love, my beautiful pathetic pirate Baba, I love him

Otherwise, I laugh more from like character dynamics and interactions I guess, than a single character. Ota and Baba make me crack up, Soryu and Mamoru when they’re fighting are hilarious, (honestly when the entire kbtbb gang is playing off each other it’s so much fun. Yoosung and Seven are ridiculous, I laugh every time Zen and Jumin fight. 

Who’s your favorite MC?

My own

I joke I joke. I do personally tend to prefer the more sarcastic and involved mc’s. Ikesen’s MC I really like. I also like OPH’s MC (voltage makes the teen ones more entertaining imo, Idk why?)

Kiss, Marry, Avoid?

Kiss Mamoru, Marry Yoosung, Avoid Leon

Which has the best artwork by Voltage?

KOP’s art is really good generally (there is one kiyohito cg that’s wonky to me), I also like the RITE art a lot. 

Who’s route was most interesting?

Mamoru (love me some cult shit), Yosuke, and Koichi (yes he’s a bastard, but it was interesting okay)

Who’s route was most boring?

I played the couple free episodes of Taki from KOP and my god. I was snoozing. I’ve said this in discord. Taki has the personality of a brick wall, if he was a spice he’d be flour, and his spirit animal is an unsalted wheat thin. I can’t with him. 

What’s your favorite character type?

Ossans, old voltage dudes, Idk what it is.  Otherwise, I really like Tsunderes it seems and really sarcastic characters. Prickly boys are cute. Also cute sweetheart babies like Yoosung or Rhion. 

What’s your favorite Otome moment?

MC finding the photo of Mamo in drag, holy shit. I wish we had gotten a cg of that, I fucking need. Also, Mamo painting MC’s fingernails was so cute. 

Teaching Namba to use line(lime) and when he gets jealous over Goto and the meat buns. 

Eisuke getting rejected by Cheshire, suck it pancake hoe. 

Soryu thinking the onion was using defense techniques. 

Yoosung and the passing out after drinking coffee syndrome, Yoosung also stepping the fuck up and stopping Rika from poisoning the party. 

Who’s the most annoying MC?

Uhhhh, i don’t like hating on MC’s too much, but like I played Luke’s main story recently, and holy shit MC was really dumb in that. Like Baba had to explain that medical equipment costs money. Maybe I get annoyed with MC’s too easy, but that stood out to me as....fuckin really? We’re doing this? Baba deserves a bj for having the patience to explain that to your dumb ass.

MC as a hitwoman hired to kill the bidders (his POV)- Soryu Oh

I think this is one of the longest and hardest hc/fic (I don’t even know anymore Dx) that I’ve written, I don’t even know if its okay, but if even one of you enjoy it then it’s worth it :D part 1   part 2 Eisuke’s version  story: written, brain: dry, quality: low Im forcibly removed from the fandom

I was in my office, exchanging anxious glares between the document I had in front of me and the phone, like the past two, almost three weeks now, waiting for Samejima to tell me if ______ was alright. I knew from the second day of the month, that I was being targeted, although I didn't know by who, whoever was stalking me must have been stalking _______ as well, so I assigned her a pair of my subordinates as bodyguards. The first day that happened, both guys came up to me with an unbelievable story: supposedly, ________ was chasing me and protected me from a guy that was going to kill me before they could intervene, I didn't believe it at first and I wanted to ditch that thought, but it kept bothering me so I started my research, and I realize that there was a dark part of her that I didn't know...: she was a hitman, a hitwoman more accurately. 

I had to avoid her for an entire day for the information to sink in, after all, how could a girl so sweet and nice as her be a killer? How was it possible that the only woman who cared for and treasure me, my only sunshine, be a murderer?, I thought that it would take an eternity for me to accept that my beautiful and nice girlfriend wasn’t as innocent as I thought; but then I realized that I missed her, that I was now attached to her, it was a very odd feeling, a very needy one, so I made up an excuse for not contacting her. I was a little hurt that she didn't tell me anything, but as much as I love her, I would wait for her to tell me everything her heart desired. At least that was what I tried to do.

While I was at the office, I made my own little research about her company, a very famous one in the underground actually, and apparently, ________ was one of the top killers, honestly I didn’t know how to feel with that, in a way I was proud, but... ever since I knew her and knew that I was in love with her, I wanted her to be as far away as she could of the evil and darkness that was surrounding me, yet there was the probability that I was wrong, since I didn’t know since when she had joined that company, there was a high chance, no, it was almost certain that something happened in her life that made her took that path. 

In any way I was ready to support her and to tell her what I knew, so during the second week I went to visit her to her room in the Tres Spades’ staff dorms, I wouldn’t lie, I was pretty excited to see her, since seeing _______ somehow made my day worthy, yet when she opened the door, the bandage in her arm caused my heart to sink with concern, I didn’t know why but she was still trying to protect me; that only thought changed something in me.

“I know” was what I said that day after we drank the tea that she made for us

“What?...”

“I know about your secret life” I made a pause, I could see the panic in her eyes, how a person so easy to read as she could be a killer? “I know about your job as a hitwoman” I saw ______ literally freeze for a moment, so I knew that I had to keep going before any misunderstandigs could take place “I want you to know that that doesn’t change my feelings for you nor my intention to marry you in a near future” her expression relaxed but was still tense, my eyes went straight to her bandage, she followed my gaze “What happened? and please don’t lie now” she sighed in a defeated way

“This is a scratch, but it was made by a sharp USMC razor blade” she made a pause, probably trying to sense my response, it was an odd feeling to hear her talking about weapons, but as I kept my focus on the wound, I was more determined, so I decided that I had to get used to it “A month of fighting and to kill the former customer, the one who asked me to finish you, those were the requirements my boss gave me to resign” she said

“Do you need help with the last one?”- I asked by instinct, but at the same time, somewhere deep inside me, I already knew the answer

“That’s… already done” her apologetic look took me by surprise, more than the fact that the girl I believe was completely innocent had just admitted killing a man

“I see” that was the only thing I managed to say

“I… have one week left until I can send my resignation and to finally be free” she made a pause, then she took her purse and took out a locket with a symbol that I didn’t know, ____ gave it to me, it was cold but somehow I knew that it had sentimental value for her, she watched me observing it and then she kept talking “It’s a coat of arms…. The symbol, it belongs to my family, a family of killers” she looked at me with a bit of self-pity in her eyes “I was trained since birth to be a hitwoman, I don’t even know how to do anything else, still, I wanted to have a normal life, so I started off as a maid here in Tres spades, I… was able to live like this because I was the best, top of the class, one of the best assassins in the organization, etc. Let’s say that the freedom in which I have been living until now is the result of my hard work, I didn’t mind but then… someone asked me your head, refusing would’ve to mean putting all of you guys in danger, so after a long time of negotiation I got the best deal I could, sorry for not telling you anything earlier, but…” her voice cracked, and my hand got on top of hers instinctively

“It’s okay” I understood, even if it hurt a little to be lied, she was doing her best to protect us, the other bidders and myself “Anyway... do you need help, fighting those guys?” as usual, I wasn’t comfortable with the idea that the woman I love was in danger, yet she looked at me with a serious and confident expression

“I’m okay, after all, if I can’t do this kind of things, how could I ever be the wife of the boss of the ice dragons”

‘I really, really love this woman’ that was what I thought as I saw her cute face blushing as she just realized the things she said

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

The last day of the month clashed with an important business of mine, I was preparing the necessary ‘documents’ for the negotiation when a knock sounded on my door

“Come in” It was a surprise to see her there, especially with a concerned look on her face “What’s the matter? I don’t see you coming here often”

“I… suspect that there is going to be a second assassin today, I have done my research and I have evidence that supports that theory” she said and proceed to show me the multiple emails, contracts and bank accounts movements of the ones she thought were the hitmen responsible for today’s mission

“You know it's highly probable that this are fake right? With the intention of confuse you and make you think that you ahead of them” I analyze the information in front of me in full mobster mood

“That’s a possibility, but even so, the money movements of the organization as well as their GPS tracking and weapon logistics suggest that there’s going to be more than one assassins today”

“Well, you may be right about that...”

“Of course I am! Who you think you are talking to, Mr. Mob boss?” she asked with a smirk. I giggled at her sassy remark

“For a moment there I thought I was talking to Eisuke” I pat her head as she pouted

“Hey now, that’s not fair”

“No it isn’t” I smirked as well before pulling her for a kiss, when we part she was blushing ‘God how can she be so adorable?’ “So what’s the plan?” I asked as I assumed that she already had one, _______ just grinned as if she just had been waiting for that question.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

According to _______’s plan, we changed the location from the other gang’s quarters to a neutral port downtown

“First let's change the meeting location, here is a good place, for the mob is a neutral zone, right? And I know the place since a few of my contracts happened there” she said “After that I’ll locate myself in this building nearby, for your safety put other two snipers here and here just in case���

“And for yours?” I asked in a concerned voice

“I’ll be fine don’t worry about it” 

‘Even if you say that…’ was what I thought

“Don’t worry boss I’ll protect you, even if it’s the last thing I do” Inui said with a dramatic voice, probably sensing my stress  

“I appreciate it Inui, but it’s not myself who I’m worried about”

“________ will be alright boss, her plan was very elaborate and almost flawless let everything in her hands” Samejima added, I simply nodded, as I saw that the other party was arriving at that same moment, we walked in their direction, there were the boss and other two subordinates, one of them carried a big stack of wooden boxes

“We brought the goods, did you bring the money?” the boss asked, Samejima opened the case he had and showed them the payment, the boss nodded in approval “Let’s exchange” Samejima walked towards them and give the man with the empty hands the case, while the man carrying the boxes gave them to Inui

“It's always a pleasure to make business with you Soryu, and the Ice Dragons of course” the mob boss said while he and his men turn around and walked towards their car, we did the same and that was when happened, three loud bangs echoed in the place as well as the scream of one of the men, we turned around at the same time that the others, we all dragged our guns “What’s the meaning of this Oh?!” the other boss demanded to know

“Why don’t you ask him?”- I rebutted while pointing the guy’s bloody GLOCK G40 on the ground, the pistol’s direction was aiming to us.

“Soryu?” I heard _______’s voice in the transmitter she gave me earlier “That man is not one of the top killers but he definitely works for the organization, I’m still looking out for any other threat that could be...”

“So here is where you were”- I heard a faint manly voice and then a series of shootings

“_________!!!!” I yelled, but the connection got cut “Dammit! Samejima, take care of the rest!” I order and ran towards the building where I knew ______ was.

My heart was beating painfully and my own breathing hurts as I went up the stairs, when I reached the last floor I started to hear them, I prepared myself to shoot 

“It was a nice work you did, but I’ll end you here and take your place as the best” the same voice that I heard before was talking now, I peek through the door and saw ________ fighting for her life against two boker combat blades, one in each guy’s hands pointing to her neck, her eyes focused on mine for a second, I didn’t even think about it and shot at the man’s back, after that she took one of the blades and stab the guy’s neck, I ran to her and hugged her, without caring about the blood in her sleeves

“Are you okay?”- I asked in a bit of panic

“I-I’m fine, thank you…although I was supposed to be the one to protect you” after everything that happened she pout just because I ended up helping her, I couldn’t restrain myself and laughed, I really loved her, she was so strong and adorable at the same time

“Let’s get out of here, finish the meeting and go home, because I really want to celebrate our victory here by having some private fun with you” I said with a teasing tone, she blushed as usual, I took her hand and lead her to the exit, as we were walking I could felt her tiny and warm hand entwine with mine and I realize that we could do anything together, I wanted to protect her so bad before, yet she saved me in more ways than one…

I could say in conclusion, that this woman was the most adorable and deadly I’ve ever known, and she was mine just as I was hers        

this was really hard to write guys, no kidding Dx so...  I’ll really appreciate any feedback you guys have for me, I hope the others are easier, it may take long but I’m still going to finish this series, thank you all for your support u,u
