#basically childhood friends of shizuku + toya

[starshine-valley]

Hey guys i’m in a shizumafu mood today. AU where Shizuku gets isekai-ed into a video game her little sister plays and ends up being the chosen one who’s supposed to stop evil or whatever but she ends up falling for the antagonist that’s literally gonna destroy the world (Mafuyu) because she reminds her of the girl she has a crush on.

WANSHO PHYSICAL TOUCH HC (because somehow I haven't talked about it here but I made a fic about it ages ago)

This is a pretty long one so bear with me!!

🌟

Tsukasa is generally a touchy guy, but only with people close to him; The closer they are to him the more likely he'll engage in physical affection. The level of it would also be different, like with school friends he would give the occasional shoulder bumps, close friends like wansho gets cuddle privileges and small—almost casual—kisses all the time, Toya gets some headpats and hugs whenever they meet, with Saki and Shizuku he's just straight up glued to them when they spend time together their hands would not let go

Tsukasa touches instinctively, there's no real way for him to stop it. If he feels someone is important to him they're going to get hugged or any other type of physical affection, it's just ingrained into his brain at this point. I just feel like touch is a persistent thing in Tsukasa's life and it stems from his childhood, the Tenmas are very affectionate!

He's very give and not take about it, so he doesn't mind not receiving any physical affection in return but he won't refuse it either

If put into words Tsukasa's touch means reassurance, both for himself and for others; It's him unconsciously saying "I'm here, and you're here. We're together!" I think it fits with his entire character of wanting to be a guiding light and a source of smiles for others <3

🍬

Touch is Emu's entire love language, it's how she shows people she loves them! Emu has a lot of love to give so this directly affects her way of showing physical touch; it's persistent, it's all encompassing, it's intense. She tackles people to the ground and gives bone crushing hugs as she should!! Also when she catches a person she just doesn't let go she's super clingy, she'll be having lunch with Honami and she's squeezing her arm the entire time

Because of that, though, Emu is very very aware of her touches. I think her family would point it out all the time with how intense she is (especially Shousuke). Her touch is a loud yell of "I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW IT!" but not everyone can withstand the intensity of it so she tries to hold back and not let herself get too excited. She doesn't want to accidentally hurt her friends and family, after all

She's very much a give and receive kind of person, but she very rarely directly asks for physical affection even if she really wants it. What she does is doubling her effort in giving others physical affection in the hopes of receiving some in return (This always works with Tsukasa and Hinata btw so she usually targets them when she feels especially touchy)

🤖

Nene is touch avoidant because the feeling of people touching her makes her uncomfortable, especially towards accidental touch from people she doesn't know. Basically things she can't anticipate and brace for would be the worse ones, while touches from friends are less so.

Because of how affectionate Emu and Tsukasa are she feels really bad about this, she wishes touch doesn't make her feel bad but the two honestly doesn't mind. They try to find other ways to show her affection, they just want her to be happy and comfortable around them :)

I think somewhere along the line she—with the help of wansho—figures out that she's mostly okay with touch if she's the one to initiate it or if it's something small with people she trusts (pinkie holding is my favourite example). Later on she realises that if she can anticipate the touch she's more comfortable with it; something rehearsed and specific that's communicated beforehand. They use this technique for theatre!

She's a give only and rarely receives kind of person because of the whole 'she's fine with initiating physical affection' thing. Her touch means "I care about you so I'm putting in effort to get out of my comfort zone for you" and it's a very sweet sentiment, please be gentle with her

🎈

Rui is the very definition of touch starved and desperate, but also he can't handle the slightest bit of skin touching him without blacking out for a few seconds he's so pathetic about it. He's just not used to getting physical affection other than from... maybe his parents, Nene herself is hesitant to do it when they were younger, so he didn't really have anyone to rely on for it

So Rui has this conflicting want for affection but being unable to handle it and then paired with a very clingy Emu and instinctively touchy Tsukasa, it's a great combination I hope he combusts into flames. Emu also realises this and weaponises it against him.

This doesn't apply to theatre by the way, he focuses too hard on creating a good show that he doesn't realise it when he's literally caressing Tsukasa's arms while trying to get him to the right position. It's like having tunnel vision, basically

He's mostly a receiver rather than a giver because he would rather make a contraption to show his affection. The problem is, just like Emu, he doesn't know how to directly ask for physical affection—this may stem from self doubt; if he even deserves it. Bless Emu with her empathic powers she can sense this want and eagerly uses it against him <3

I think after some amount of time he would eventually get used to touch and become unbearably clingy, he's making up for 18 years of touch deprivation

I'd give you 5$ if you post that draft

you didn't even need to bribe. it's not actually in the drafts of this blog so i'll write a better version

i've said it a billion times before: tsukasa is the comedic relief weirdguy, the devs basically will do anything with him so long as it's funny.

so starting with that valentine's day vlive in 2021. during the MC part of that he gets jealous that rui has been getting chocolates and tries to brag that he got lots of chocolates too but then immediately reveals that he got friendzoned by multiple girls. his voiceline that year is something about how he catches everyone's attention on vday and year round bc he's a star or something like that but anyway that whole interaction there seems to suggest he's straight lol.

however.

he's REALLY oblivious. played for comedy ofc but i see a lot of people interpret this as him being somewhere on the aro spectrum (probably not what the writers intended but fair instance of accidentally coding a character as smth). examples include: not understanding why Akito doesn't want to be seen at PXL alone with Toya in an Akito's initial 3* (second story), literally says "thank you" when Asahi basically confesses to him and completely misses the point (he actually did seem to nearly get this one for a second), and he doesn't understand why Rui's friends are impressed that he's friends the incredibly attractive Shizuku (Tsukasa is the only not-gay-coded male character who isn't attracted to Shizuku, probably because they're childhood friends. or if you want to view him as being aspec, then that works too). also when he mentions that he's friends with guys in his class who are cool and popular and good with women, Hibiki says that he was in a class with one of those guys in 1st year and is amazed that tsukasa is in that crowd now, emphasis on the "tsukasa's friends are good with women part". tsukasa's just confused about that because of course they talk to girls a lot they're in the same class.

also he usually rewrites a lot of romance plays to remove the romance. he rewrote R&J to just make it focused on the action (which is probably because he likes playing action heroes more than anything else), and he got rid of the romance plot in little mermaid because he didn't felt it was needed (this one is justified in-universe as they do fun shows for small children and don't really need the tragic romance, and also from production standpoint like you don't do that because fandom). so yeah that could again be read as him being aspec if you want but i don't think the writers intended it to be read that way, especially the R&J one that was purely for comedy.

all that said, this is an idol game, which generally run on the rule of thumb that every character is some flavour of queer, even if it's just for fanservice (i don't play enstars but from what i do know of it it falls a bit on that last point). anyway you can probably tell where this is going but he gets ship tease with rui sometimes. vast majority of this is from Rui's side but there are things like Oki ni Mesu mama

Tsukasa: Waiting for the "1, 2…" signal, holding hands with you is an act of courage for me

or that one part in pandemonium where he drops his persona for a brief second when he's impressed by rui's plan that was very much put there on purpose, or that Tsukasa and Airi's cheerful carnival team name from that event is "swayed by their partners (相方, aikata)" and when you consider that Shizuku and Airi are heavily implied to like each other, and have canonically been on a "date", that was also a Choice.

idk whether to count KING because justified by them being actors and the fang motif in the song... vampires kinda homoerotic it makes sense that the dance routine was that. also i'm not sure if the connect lives are even canon, especially the wxs one since tokishun broke character and the 4th wall.

yeah i dunno. the writers kinda just do whatever they want with him. interpret any of this how you will i'm just recounting shit from the game.

oh hey it's longer than 300 words now

[bloodlustfantasia]

hey dearie, ive always wondered about prsk or however u abbreviate it, can u tell me about it?

(im asking u to pls info dump 🙏)

yesyes!! it's a rhythm game developed by sega based on vocaloids. it's not dissimilar to games like bandori and love live! the focal point however are the original characters who get to shine the most. aaand im gonna do a read more because i rambled-

the groups/units are as follows:

Leo/Need. Um, they're just lesbians. And childhood best friends. And star imagery. And- ummmm. I like them a lot. They're Ichika Hoshino, Saki Tenma, Shiho Hinomori, and Honami Mochizuki! THEY ARE AWESOME!!! THEY ALSO MAKE ME SADDD!!! So basically they formed because Ichika wanted to form a band once Saki got out of the hospital after being there for a few years due to her chronic illness iirc? Ichika wants to form the band to honor a childhood promise they made. I haven't read the story in a bit so I might be wrong haha.

More More Jump! THEM!! They're idols. They do pop music and stuff but they are surprisingly angsty- so. Minori Hanasato (me frfr), Haruka Kiritani, Airi Momoi, and Shizuku Hinomori. They are LESBIANS. ALL OF THEM. Sorry I- um anyways. their unit formed because minori is a lesbian over haruka and she inspired them all to become idols again because she's dreamed of being an idol since she was a child Because of Haruka.

Vivid Bad Squad which.. um I don't like them as much as the other groups *I get booed off the stage* ANYWAYS they're street musicians and I won't lie I should start reading their stories after the recent An card. So the members are: Kohane Azusawa (she is hampster), An Shiraishi, Akito Shinonome, and Toya Aoyagi! Akito is kind of gay and so is Toya you did not hear this from me though ^_^ They are all kinda gay. i did not read their story sorry

Wonderlands x Showtime, which is a group of musical actors and they have much whimsy and silly energy! The members are Emu Ootori, Tsukasa Tenma, Nene Kusanagi, and Rui Kamishiro! I like Rui a lot I think he's neat :> Weird little guy. Emu is so cutee. She's so wonderhoy. I read their story but I don't remember it. Emu won though.

aaand Nightcord at 25:00! They're a circle who met on Nightcord I think, which is like Discord but Night (get it because they're Nightcord at 25:00 which is like 1 am-) aaand. I love them. They're the angst group if you will. They want to die and I worry about them. The members aaare! Kanade Yoisaki, Mafuyu Asahina, Ena Shinonome, and Mizuki Akiyama. Mizuki is trans which is pretty awesome of her :D

*collapses to ground*....Project sekai.......has been explained... *gets shot*

[ramblingsekai]

Alright guys, I’m gonna do it. I’m going to write Part 2 of my Miku event post. So non-spoiler recap, Ken hosts a Miku appreciation event, all the groups show up, and things happen. You may want to read Part 1 since I also explain some details for setting up the event. Anyways let’s gooo. May have to make a Part 3 too.

Recap: all the groups show up to Ken’s Miku appreciation event.  Ken knows about the Sekais and about Miku/other Vocaloids and wants to thank them for helping out VBS so much on their musical journey. Plus he enjoys the aesthetics of the Street Sekai. Crap it just occurred to me but idk if I should let Ken have access to the Sekai or not. Uhh, Miku gives him access but he only decides to go if the kids ask him since he feels like the Street Sekai is VBS’s version of like a treehouse/hang out spot so he doesn’t want to impose, but a small segment of it does reflect some of his feelings bc of his access now (a later post). Besides he and the Vocaloids all have a friendly relationship with each other. I wonder if some of VBS’s hero worship of Ken rubbed off onto the Vocaloids. Later post.

Anyways, all the groups show up and they start mingling with each other since they recognize each other from all of the run ins they’ve had. Ichika and Honami has a chance to meet the rest of 25ji. Honami mentions that she’s the housekeeper for Kanade. The rest of Leo/need finally meets 25ji. Saki thinks Kanade is cute and all of L/N are surprised that only Mizuki is their age. Saki is also slightly concerned for Kanade bc she’s so small and looks fragile bc of her shut in lifestyle and asks if Kanade wants to hang out sometime to help her exercise/get out her house. Kanade agrees more to be polite, but also curiosity. Tsukasa stops by briefly and vaguely recognizes Kanade. He also hears about how shut in Kanade is and decides to help Saki in efforts to get Kanade out more often bc he thinks that someone of Kanade’s talents should take care of her health more. Shiho also discusses music with Kanade since she’s impressed by Kanade’s skill at her age. Shiho also talks to Mafuyu for a bit. She had known about Mafuyu before since Shizuku has probably mentioned Mafuyu to her before, but talking with Mafuyu now, I wonder if Shiho would notice something off about her since Shiho can be observant at times. Anyways, Shiho is also impressed by Mafuyu’s lyrical skills as well as interested in hearing that she can compose songs too. Honami probably overloads Mizuki and Ena with her kindness. Honami also probably softly asks for them to look out for Kanade on occasion since Honami can’t always be around to make sure Kanade eats while also thanking Mizuki and Ena for being good friends with Kanade since she probably recognizes that 25ji really helped Kanade relax more.

So MMJ, VBS, and WxS just form into one blob. Tsukasa and Shizuku are getting a chance to hang out while also keeping an eye on their siblings. Tsukasa probably drags Toya over too and ofc Akito won’t leave Akito so package deal they come. Akito is probably super conflicted between doing his good boy facade and being sassy to Tsukasa since Shizuku is right there and Rui is also keeping an eye on things. Rui is probably also fascinated in hearing childhood stories about Tsukasa from Shizuku and Toya. I also HC that Shizuku has interacted with Toya before. Maybe not that much to be too notable, but enough where they recognize each other. Airi probably bounces back and forth since she also wants to talk to Ena and Mizuki too. Saki is a big Airi fangirl so ofc she’s gonna chat with Airi and Emu also chats with Airi bc she def watched the shows Airi was on (also based on the recent V-day event in JP). Minori is chatting with Kohane, Emu, and Nene while Haruka and An are also chatting. I HC that this is when most of the groups realize that VBS are basically dating each other (An/Kohane, Akito/Toya) bc each pair is just hanging off of each other (An keeps hugging Kohane and Toya keeps his arm around Toya) and this is also when they realize that Ken is totally cool with it bc he lightly teases them about it. VBS did promise to help out with the event a little so I feel like Ken would go like “Hey An, stop being a koala to your gf and help me pass out drinks” or go like “Hey Akito can you help me bring out some of these dishes and yes you have to eat these carrots and not give them to your bf” or something. And ofc more teasing from the groups occur bc of it. But it’s also probably nice to the other groups when they realize how chill Ken is with all of this acceptance and that they don’t have to worry too much about the dating thing with him (new date spot acquired). You can’t tell me everyone here is 100% straight with how Proseka has been going.

I also like the idea of 25ji interacting with VBS also at some point. The two groups end up wondering over together and Ena teases Akito that she now knows his super secret cafe spot and that maybe she’ll stop by sometimes since Ken makes good coffee. Akito just sort of grimaces and says do what you want, not like I can stop you or something (he’s not actually that pissed off about it now, but it’s not like he’s ecstatic about it now). Kanade notices that Kohane sang at that Miku event (the Scramble Fest event can’t remember the name of the singing event) and asks about her singing and stuff and Kanade is surprised that Kohane is actually a beginner. An overhears and An being An, brags about how she met Kohane and instantly knew Kohane was the one and stuff. Ofc An phrases it as if it were love at first sight too (I mean it could be given how An acted) and 25ji is just surprised at how bold An is. I wonder if Ena also slightly envies Kohane bc it is evident that Kohane is talented. An probably mentions her dad and her uncle and how her uncle is some producer. So ofc Kanade looks him up and is surprised at the high view count on his videos and asks An and Kohane if she could ask him for advice some time. An says that she sees him she’ll ask if he has any tips, but can’t guarantee anything, but Kanade is satisfied with that (Kanade prob just wanted insights and not like an actual mentorship and didn’t want to take advantage of An or anything, but that’s for another post). I also wonder if someone from VBS accidentally slips that Akito went against someone named Arata and lost and Akito ends up getting a little heated saying how the guy said he didn’t stand out and how he’ll prove Arata wrong and stuff, but this is the moment when Ena realizes that oh, maybe her and Akito are more alike that she thought (Ena and her art and Akito and his music). Mafuyu and Kohane get a chance to interact here too. I wonder if maybe they have seen each other before (seen not talk) and Kohane mentions how she looked way different at the start of the school and Mafuyu then remembers and asks why Kohane cut her hair and got contacts. Kohane mentions that she wanted to resolve herself and did it to gain confidence and cut her hair to confirm her resolve and stuff. Mafuyu says how bold of you Azusawa-san, while silently thinking about that statement. (I HC that Mafuyu cuts her hair after she breaks away from her parents). Anyways, Ena and Mizuki are like wahh how bold to cut your hair yourself (giving Mafuyu more ideas). They also probably ask if she’s going to dye her hair too since everyone else in VBS has and Kohane mentions she hasn’t decided yet. Toya chimes in that it’s no rush and that he knows how parents can be too if their kids suddenly change. He then probably mentions his harsh childhood and breaking away from his dad’s dream for him (giving Mafuyu more ideas) and Akito also probably chimes in like ‘yeah his dad sucked or something’. Basically I feel like each of VBS could end up giving Mafuyu ideas since they seem to weirdly reflect different bits of her. (An being so emotional/bold and having a stable dad, Kohane finding resolve, Toya breaking away from family, Akito keeps going on a path where he may not succeed but does bc he loves music,etc.). I also wonder if Akito would notice Mafuyu is faking her smiles and attitude since he does the same thing himself, but also notices how much emptier she is.

Ok but WxS and MMJ. Tsukasa asking if Shizuku is ok where she is since he probably only heard about Shizuku quitting her group and now she’s with another group and Shizuku reassuring him that she’s happy with MMJ. Emu and Airi intereacting more. Emu maybe asking for gymnastic tips since she does a lot of stunts for the plays and Airi happy to give them out. Rui curious about Airi’s show experience as well since it’s not easy work. Nene being a little starstruck by Haruka and Minori trying to cheer Nene on to talk with them more. WxS offering to do a joint play with MMJ where MMJ would stream it and WxS could get some more advertisement.

But you can see how all the groups end up staying until like closing time. So many people and so many conversations. I tried my best with this, but uh yeah I didn’t get to all of the groups possible combos, but I’m only human. I know I know. I tried to at least include something for all of the groups, but you can obviously see my bias. So yeah, I just wanted to show some possible crossovers.

Anyways, as closing time gets close, the other regulars leave and it’s just our favorite cast of characters. Ken eventually calls out that it’s pretty much closing time. Phone numbers are exchanged and promises to hang out are made (I’ll just say everyone has everyone’s phone number now bc even if I didn’t show it, everyone made some contact with each other at some point). Someone asks why Ken made the event in the first place. Maybe it’s Ichika since she’s the bonafide Miku fangirl and doesn’t know Ken that well. Ken gives his reply and accidentally spills the beans that he knows what Sekais are and that he knows Miku and other Vocaloids.

Crap guys I swear I was going to get to the Sekai tour in Part 2, but I also wanted to do some group interactions and then this occurred. So I guess I’ll be making a Part 3. For real guys, I will get to the Sekai tour. I definitely want to show that.

So I’ll just mention some stuff for it here too. The person who pressed their Untitled was definitely Emu. It was a toss up btwn Emu or maybe Saki, but I decided Emu just because. Also bc I’m sure you guys have noticed that I tend to go in group order (L/N->MMJ->VBS->WxS->25ji) for these larger posts w/ all the groups so I wanted to mix it up. Also, 25ji will go last for the Sekai tour. Mainly bc I can see 25ji wanting to respect Mafuyu’s decision if she wants to even reveal the Empty Sekai or not since Mafuyu was the original creator of the sekai. So Mafuyu may actually be internally panicking as she sees these other Sekais and realizing that if the other groups saw the Empty Sekai, she might be forced to reveal her secret. So Part 3 might delve into the reveal of Mafuyu’s secret and 25ji’s angst.
