When Ichiro Mihara said "Having children isn't all there is to life, and its not the only reason for loving someone. Happiness comes in different forms and different ways" and Freya asks Elda "What is Happiness?" and Kohaku explains how Kohaku wants to stay by Shuuichirou's side even if Shuuichirou decided not to love Kohaku "because I'm sure that Shuuichirou will become my {Special Person} Again" but then Kohaku says "If that person's happiness is not to live with you, though it's sad and hard, but, thats certainly better than that person not being happy" and then explains how those feelings are contained "right {here}" in the heart and then then Shuuichirou 5th(??) says "I'm sure an angel's wish {for Happiness} would be granted" and then Chii says Chii's 'happiness' is with Hideki, even if Hideki cannot ever have penetrative sex with Chii, and then Tomoyo says "The greatest happiness for me is to let the person I most like have the most happiness" about Sakura, who is realizing Sakura's own love for Xiaolang, and then Hideki also said "I don't love Chii because 'I wanted' to 'make love' to {Chii}. 'I wanted' to 'make love' to {have sex with} Chii because I love {Chii}." And then Chitose wrote a whole picture book about it, a "fairy tale" Chitose wrote "in the hope that all precious children could find happiness" and Zima asked Dita "but if {they} don't have a soul, what then?" and then Kobato realized Kobato's happiness was Fujimoto anyway and then wished to live together with Fujimoto and then Haruka Domeki recounts the {Chou no Yume} or "Butterfly's Dream" story and hinted of a 'someone' totally not Watanuki "Maybe the man I am now is a dream that a butterfly is having" and then Domeki says to Watanuki "but the one Kohane cares about most is you" and then Yuuko says "Domeki just didn't want you {Watanuki} to disappear forever" and then Domeki says "There are things I care about" to Watanuki with a very pointed stare and then Watanuki is realizing "I'll do whatever I can because I want to be here" and then Yuuko says "My wish is for you {Watanuki} to go on existing. That's all I want", A.K.A, Yuuko's happiness and then Sakura asks "What is Happiness {to You?}" to "Cristaux" {"Kaito"} who is trapped in the form of a dragon, a non-human being and then the butterfly obi-wearing, definitely not a dream!Yuuko tells Watanuki "You are human, just like {Xiaolang}/{Tsubasa}" after Watanuki asks in despair "Am I human?" because Watanuki realized Watanuki only ever 'met' "this shop's customers, the dead, and the spirits" and then butterfly obi Yuuko responded "No, this is Not a Dream" and then the Zashiki Warashi's look-alike 'human' shop customer exclaimed to Watanuki, "In the dream, there's also, with a buttefly obi, an extraordinarily beautiful {person} with long hair!!" "{They're trying to kill me!!}" and then Ichiro Mihara helpfully added "Even if a {combination}/{of people}, looks a bit 'odd' on the outside... they can still be happy on the inside." and then

Smash or pass: Jakurai, for Ichiro!

"If Jakurai-san and I ever end up in bed together, I can promise you that it won't be because of some hypothetical game." They both deserved more than a cheap hook-up based on a childish question. Despite that, he could feel the corners of his lips lift into an easy smile, and Ichiro shrugged... Hopefully it would add a bit of casual air back into the situation. "I'm saying smash -- but that's no offer!" He chuckled softly. "I'd wanna do somethin' like that the right way."

Gift Giving (hypmic)

Hypmic characters and the gifts they give you

Featuring EVERYONE (excluding Rei and Saburo)

⋆｡°✩ ⋆｡°✩ ⋆｡°✩

Buster Bros

Ichiro

I feel like he’s the type of guy to gift you experiences rather than physical items. He’d take you to a fancy cafe you’d been eyeing, maybe a movie you wanted to watch, possibly even plan a surprise picnic!!

He dresses up for the occasion too! Even if you don’t expect it, he’s out of his usual jacket and attire- sporting something he seemingly newly bought. Ichiro will absolutely light up in smiles if you compliment his outfit and effort.

Ichiro feels like his time with you is more valuable than any gift he could give. He has so many other responsibilities on his shoulders so he uses his “gifts” to make up for any time lost.

Jiro

Jiro worries himself over trying to come up with a gift to get you. He doesn’t have much money, with most of his salary going towards helping his siblings. When the time comes to give you a gift, he’s embarrassed- bumbling over himself with apologies for the supposed shittiness of his gift.

But oh, oh, oh he’s so sweet :C. He’ll hand make a card for you, educating himself on paper craft so it’s the cutest it can be. There’s paper cuts that litter his hands as he gives it to you.

Jiro immediately leaves the room, not wanting to see your face as you read the letter, in which he pours his heart out for you to fully see. Run after him and kiss his face will you?

Saburo

404 not found!

Mad Trigger Crew

Samatoki

Samatoki gives you a leather wallet... that he made himself!!

One of the old men who he buys meatbuns from told him about a class that would 'fit his vibe.' And when he begrudgingly took the class, the old man was totally right! Samatoki gets really into the task, hiding the new hobby from you because he wants to surprise you with a gift at the end of the class.

When he hands you the wallet, you can tell it wasn't professionally made. There's stray burn marks on the front, mildly messy seams holding it together, and a tag inside that is signed with his initials and yours inside of a heart. Samatoki is so, so proud of showing you his accomplishment though- and hopes you enjoy it as much as he enjoyed making it.

Jyuto

Jyuto gets you a personalized music box.

It's of your favorite song. One you would always play for him whenever you were given aux in the car- that he would always playfully say was becoming annoying to hear. One he only seemed to tolerate instead of actually enjoy listening to it.

But he knows the joy it brings you to listen to. He sees the smile on your face when you turn the volume louder, the shine in your eyes when it surprisingly comes on the radio. It's why, despite his mild dislike of it, he buys you a music box so you could play it whenever you want. Just so he can see your smile whenever he can.

Rio

Rio is a man of practicality. So he gets you a self care box!

He kind of throws everything into it, multiple body washes and bath bombs, a variety of different scents- he has more experience in self preservation instead of self care. But just from the amount of... stuff inside- it's clear he thought a lot about it!

When he gives the box to you he has a little trouble explaining what it's for. It's a rare sight to see, Rio stumbling flustered over his words trying to explain he wanted to make sure you were taking care of yourself in ways outside his understanding. If you offer to show him how to use all the stuff he got you, he'll gladly accept!

Fling Posse

Ramuda

Ramuda gives you an outfit he specifically designed! In his mind, there's nothing more meaningful than something made from hand.

He’s poured over it for weeks, wanting it to be absolutely perfect for his perfect partner. Ramuda knows your tastes to the smallest detail, so he knew just what to do to make sure you'd like it. And its comfortable too!! Made with the softest fabric he could buy, so despite whatever flashiness it has it's super comfy to wear.

When actually giving it to you, he makes you model it right in front of him! He's kicking his feet and squealing as you twirl around in whatever he gives you, excited to see you in something he created.

Gentaro

mfeafeiafjewamawe Gentaro gifts you a notebook.

It's unsuspecting first, with a plain, brown, leather bound cover. He's unusually casual about it too, handing it to you under his sleeve with a meek smile. Usually, Gentaro would make a show about whatever gift he gives you, jokingly saying you should bow to his feet in praise for his effort.

However, once you open up the notebook, you'd find it's filled with words of love. Poems, short stories, letters, all of it written by Gen to you. It's so, sickenly sweet and romantic you'd never expect it from him. When you look back at him after peeking through, he's red in the face, flustered to hear whatever feedback you may have.

Dice

Dice gives you a special lucky charm!!

He spent months hunting it down. Seeking through pawn shops and all the shady back alley sellers he knows. When Dice gets a good idea in his mind, he sticks to it thoroughly, the only thing on his mind being the joyous reaction he expects you to have.

And what does he give you? The matching piece to his earring of course! If you don't wear earrings, he'll have it converted to a keychain so you can carry it on your bag. Dice thinks it's the perfect good luck charm, both for him and for you :3

Matenro

Jakurai

fewafewafewfeaw Jakurai gets you one of those mini books that's like "30 things I love about you."

You know, the ones that have a different prompt for each page that you have to fill in. Despite the small space, he gets really detailed, and it's so sweet and romantic and yuck !!! They're all wildly different responses, ranging from how he thinks you always look wonderful to how he thinks you truly saved his life just by being in it.

When Jakurai hands the book to you he's shy about it, apologizing about the responses because he wasn't able to fit all he wanted to say. Of course, he'll gladly say it in person if you're insistent 😚😚😚

Hifumi

Hifumi comes to your door with a bouquet of flowers. He's all smiles as he stuffs petals and stems in your face.

Ooh, he was insistent on picking out the flowers himself. Hifumi has a company discount with the local flower shop his club works with- so he was all in on getting as many different flowers as he could find (as in, all the flowers he found pretty[as in, all of them]).

He also put together the bouquet himself!! It's a little messy, with some broken stems and falling petals. However, he's just so happy to give it to you that you can't help but find it adorable.

Doppo

Doppo gets matching keychains for you guys!

He likes being subtle about a lot of things, including his affections. The keychains he gets are the type that look regular on their own, but together they can link to form a heart or your initials or something romantic like that.

Doppo will often link your keychains together in public, smiling to himself as he sees the connection. Whenever he gets anxious in public and he's alone, he'll hold onto the keychain tightly, being reminded of you. Yes, while it was a gift to you it also was a gift to himself, to have a reminder of you with him always :CC

Bad Ass Temple

Kuko

Kuko is so shit at giving gifts I'm so sorry. He has to ask his friends what gifts to get you and they're all so sick of it LMAO. Ichiro tells him to take you out somewhere, and that eventually gives him the perfect idea for a gift.

Kuko says his gift to you is a day of him being on his best behavior. He says it with a smug smile, expecting you to tell him how good of a present it is and is shocked to see your confusion.

He gets legitimately upset when you tell him that his best behavior shouldn't be a gift. The day ends with him promising you that he'll get you an even better gift next time, which leads him back to the drawing board as this dude is just so, so shit at giving gifts.

Jyushi

Jyushi writes a song for you!

He's not the lyricist for his band but he has a heavenly voice to back up whatever he writes. But he puts EVERYTHING into writing the song for you. Jyushi throws in references to your relationship, to specific dates or moments in time, to things only the two of you would know. He sees it as his magnum opus, and is very very proud of being able to perform it to you.

If his band doesn't want to perform the song with him he makes Kuko and Hitoya help him. Sure, it may have taken a few tear filled begs, but with their help he's able to perform the song he spent so much time working on, just for you

Hitoya

Hitoya makes you a playlist!

He's a bit of a classic guy, and would've made you a mixtape if anyone still used those on the daily lol. There's a lot of different memories within your relationship related to different songs, and he wanted to compile all of them for you two to listen together. Hitoya makes the picture of the playlist a photo of you two on your first anniversary, one where you're holding hands by the sunset and smiling.

It's sweet, cause he plays it first without telling you what it is. With every song that passes you recognize where it's from, and he's left smiling like a kid when you beam with joy asking him if he really made a playlist for you.

Dotsuitare Hompo

Sasara

Sasara gets you a build-a-bear bear!!

He goes in store alone to buy it, and goes a little overboard in designing it. Sasara gets a bunch of overpriced accessories, stuffs it a little too much with stuffing, and picks one of the most expensive dolls because it was the cutest.

Sasara records his own voice messages so they could play whenever you squeeze the doll's hand. And oh my goodness, he recorded so many. There's multiple shitty jokes, several wild compliments, and a myriad of 'I love yous' said in various different tones. Just don't hug it too much, he might get jealous ehehe.

Rosho

Rosho gets you whatever you want.

He gets really concerned when trying to get you gifts, worrying over what you would like best, if you already have it, or if you'd think it's too much/too little. So, eventually he'll just go ahead and ask you what you want as a present.

As long as it's in reason, of course. If you say some ludicrous thing like a yacht or a new car, Rosho will get sad and say you know he can't afford such luxurious (why would you do that to him LMAO). But he'll take you to the shops and have you pick out anything you want, buying it with no question as he just wants you to know he loves you so so so much :CC

[ransprang]

I just saw your post about Sendo’s s/o putting eyeliner on him and I loved it ❤️❤️ Could you do the same sort of prompt with Kimura, Miyata, and Takamura please? I’m so happy that someone is writing for Haiime no Ippo. It’s such an underrated anime

aww thank you <33 yess i got into HNI recently and was so surprised that there's basically no content out there?? if you have any other requests send them in! :)

HNI boys x s/o putting eyeliner on them HCS

Mamoru Takamura

takamura is hesitant, but mostly because he thinks makeup is something for girls and he is a "manly man" (his words)

you eventually manage to convince him by promising to do anything he wants afterwards, for which of course he only has one thing in mind

when he actually sees the final look in the mirror he quite likes it because he looks a bit more fierce. it gets him excited because he realises he can look scarier in his fights, "y/o can you make me look like a bear?? NO, A HAWK??"

he will actually let you do some makeup before his defense / title matches

he calls aoki and kimura (well mostly kimura) to annoy them through vague wording about what happened today "OI LOSER GUESS WHAT. Y/N AND I DID FACE STUFF TODAY HAHAHAHAHHA" (then you both may or may not proceed to do actual face stuff ahem)

takamura may even let you do more makeup on him like eyeshadoow as long as you can make him look scary

(Miyata & Kimura under cut)

Ichiro Miyata

miyata would initially be surprised by your actions, but then assume that he probably must have bored you to the point where you had to resort to such an idea

he is aware that people call him 'pretty boy', but that doesn't really affect his masculinity so he pretty easily let's you do his eyeliner

he'd sit down on a chair unsure of what to do so he just folds his arms and closes his eyes, "is this okay?"

he'd stiffen a bit when you sit on his lap, but still will do his best to remain still as he feels a strange sensation on his eyelids

when you're done, you follow behind him to a mirror. you swear you saw a small smile form on miyata's face, "this looks very interesting"

"i think you look pretty handsome actually" you say from behind him, giving him a hug. in a soft voice he replies, "thank you.."

Tatsuya Kimura

when you ask him if you can put eyeliner on him he immediately says yes. like he'd be so dumb to reject quality time together

the two of you sit on his bed as you lean over and do his eyeliner

kimura secretly enjoys having your attention on him even if it's just for a few minutes. having you so close to him also makes him feel very special

when you're done he reaches for a handheld mirror and looks shook by how talented you are

he tackles you onto the bed with a hug and murmurs about how lucky he is to have an artistically talented s/o

unfortunately he doesn't have the confidence to wear the eyeliner out in public mostly in fear of what takamura will say. he knows takamura will make fun of him hardcore and he doesn't need that to ruin this special thing between the two of you

(manga content) when chie is over at his house while you are also there, he asks you to put eyeliner on him. when the look is done she looks at him and tells him he looks pretty like a magical girl c:

(Cap'd by Me)

[akkivee]

top five moments from this little drama track in my very unbiased like so objective it’s crazy y’all opinion lol

1️⃣ sasara elected to sign himself and samatoki up to perform another comedy skit together bc he’s stupid ig lmao. samatoki punches him for it tho lmao

2️⃣ all the leaders got to eat at that diner by invite basically. it’s american so the portions are HUGE and the exact conversation about this point was brought like this lol

ichiro: i’ve never seen a burger this size before!!!!! i think it’s the same size as your head kuukou

kuukou: *holds up the burger to his face* ain’t it??

ichiro: *laughs like it’s the funniest thing he’s ever seen* it’s massive bro

3️⃣ there’s a 30cm burger and the leaders decide to have an eating contest to see who can eat it fastest, and sasara gets out of it by being the commentator lmao. kuukou the foodie has quite a bit of praise for the flavour accents in burger as he’s chowing down, ramuda can barely hold the burger up lmao, and ichiro started egging samatoki on where it’s revealed that the both of them have special eating techniques. they shouted them out in sentai style complete with superhero sound effects LOL

4️⃣ jakurai, however, reveals the ultimate technique of squishing the 30cm burger down into one ☝️ cm and eats it in four bites. HES THE WINNER LMAO (and ichiro slams his fist down lamenting his defeat LOL)

5️⃣ the track ends with the leaders cleaning up the restaurant bc they ate so much food, the restaurant workers wouldn’t be able to clean up in time for their grand opening the next day lmao. kuukou and sasara were bums and weren’t helping (kuukou: they say you have to work to earn your keep, but i’ve already eaten 😈) but eventually they get chided into helping lmao. kuukou rushed forward to complete his chore with gusto but he bumps into sasara and kuukou yells at him for getting in his way lmao and sasara yells back that he’s an idiot as samatoki tells them they’re being annoying fcks and ichiro tells kuukou that was dangerous and all six of them made for an interesting group according to ramuda 🤗🤗🤗

[mcwscollective]

❛ you can’t save everyone. ❜ Samatoki -> Ichiro

@protectivemuses

He wouldn't have been trying to 'save everyone' if Samatoki hadn't always taken it upon himself to be an aggressive asshole. That seemed to be the part the older man didn't understand -- that Ichiro only did what had to be done to keep Samatoki's piece of shit attitude in check. It amazed Ichiro what he was the youngest of the team... that he was supposed to be the delinquent of the bunch when he found himself practically babysitting Samatoki on the regular.

They were supposed to be working together. Yet the tension between them continued to build. If it weren't for Jakurai keeping them sane, and Ramuda's entertaining way of (what Ichiro could only assume was) stopping them from killing each other, he was sure he and Samatoki would have gotten into a fight that neither of them could have come back from. As it were, he wasn't sure there was much of a friendship left there to try to save anyway. They might as well have gone their own ways and called it quits.

"You're such a pain in the ass -- and it's not just under certain circumstances, it's all the fucking time!" Ichiro got in his face, fists clenched at his sides. "Stop giving me people to save if you don't want me protecting them from your bullshit!" Whatever had happened to the Samatoki that had helped him in the past, he wished he could have known about ahead of time. Then again, if he wasn't supposed to be 'saving people' maybe the older man wouldn't have wanted him helping there either.

"Fuck!" He finally released the tension in his fists as he shoved his flat palms against Samatoki's chest with the intent to steal back his own personal space despite having been the one to close the gap in the first place. He was sick of the fighting. "I'm outta here. I got more important shit to do than to wait for you to grow up."

[crehador]

wondering what's your go to play song in ARB for farming? Cause isn't Yokohama Walker hard???

ooh okay good question! hopefully i can provide a helpful answer but bear in mind i have been neglecting arb for ummm a few months (lol) so if any new tracks that are better for farming came out in that time, i might not know about them yet

also sorry in advance this is going to be long and rambly lol

i'll include a tl;dr at the start:

yokohama walker remix part a is great for farming and specifically tiering because it's lv27 and it's short, the difficulty doesn't matter too much if you're using auto tickets, and even if you're doing it manual i feel like it becomes pretty easy to full combo after some practice but for manual i also do nausa de zuiqu part c (lv26) sometimes because when you're farming a track hundreds of times, you really need it to be something you won't get sick of hearing lmao

ok now onto the long rambly bit (this is a lot of unnecessary, unhinged information that you don't really need to read lol)

so i don't actually farm every event, if the free card is ichiro or samatoki, i'll farm until i get all copies to max their leader skill. if it's anyone else, i pretty much just do the bingo missions only

(though the bingo missions changed a while back... i think? i haven't really done them since the change, i feel like they got harder to farm than the old ones orz)

for cards i want to farm i pretty much use the 5 free daily auto tickets for 5 runs at 10x rise, and that gives me a nice chunk of currency to buy tickets for the box gacha. if i need more (depending on how poorly the box gacha goes lmao) i'll pretty much play whatever i feel like, as long as it's giving me a decent amount of points

the only times i farm seriously are when i'm trying to tier (which i only do for events that both samatoki and ichiro are in), and that's where yokohama walker remix part a comes in

it's lv27 so the points are good but more important it is extremely short. i don't know if it's the shortest track in the game, but it's gotta be close. which means i can do more runs of it than if i was doing a longer track

the difficulty doesn't matter too much because when i'm trying to tier, i'm generally using up all the auto tickets i save. but once i run out (and i always run out lol) i'll manual it (there's another reason for going manual which i'll get into)

once i'm out of auto tickets, i'll do either yokohama walker remix part a or nausa part c

both of these i can full combo pretty easily and consistently at this point, like yokohama walker remix part a isn't easy when you first start playing it, but after you've done it dozens of times, i feel like you get used to the beat map and it becomes a breeze

another reason i choose these two in particular is i'm doing these hundreds of times in an event if i'm tiering, so it's got to be something i won't ever get tired of no matter how many times i play the track lol

the fact that yokohama walker remix part a is very short is also critically important to me, because when i try to tier, i'm not aiming to climb as high as possible, i'm aiming for a specific rank (either 31 the samaichi number or 13 the ichisama number)

i've actually only tried to tier twice ever (once in the hot springs event with ichiro, samatoki, and jakurai, once in the high school au with ichiro, samatoki, and saburo) and the first time i hit 13 pretty easily. that high up, the point gaps are wide enough that you can comfortably target the number you want

(it was still basically constant grinding and checking the rankings day to night lol but like, there was a wide enough point gap between 13 and 14 that i could rest easy once the event was almost over)

after i hit 13, i tried to get 31 for the next one, which was much harder for (i suspect) a few reasons. my theory is that a lot more people are going for 31 than 13 in a samaichi event, because there are significantly more samaichi shippers than ichisama shippers to begin with, plus the point requirement for 31 is much lower than it is for 13 so it's easier to attain anyway

basically landing exactly on 31 was... stressful lol, at least a few other people were trying to get there too, so you couldn't go too high up or you would accidentally shoot into 30, and you couldn't just stagnate or you would be pushed down to 32 (or lower)

i basically did a ton of runs of yokohama walker remix where i would hit, like, 50 notes then stop and let the rest be misses to see how many points that would give. then 25 notes, stop, see how many points. 100 notes, stop, see how many points. i had a huge spreadsheet of exactly how many points i would get for x notes hit at y rise used, so that i could squeak precisely into 31

but the thing is, you can't just hit 50 notes then end the track, the points won't count that way. you have to still let the track finish playing for the points to count, so yokohama walker remix part a being super short helped a lot with that. you could finish a run fast, check your rankings, see when the person below you passes you again, calculate how many points you need to get back into 31, then go back and do another run

you can do the same thing with any track, but if it's longer, it'll take longer to fine tune your ranking

OF COURSE I UNDERSTAND MOST PEOPLE ARE NOT DOING THIS EXTREMELY ABNORMAL THING OF TRYING TO RANK IN THE SAMAICHI NUMBER EXACTLY LMAO so all this info is pertinent to, um, probably just me. honestly it's not even that pertinent to me anymore because i don't think i'll try to tier again. i already have one rank 13 plaque and one rank 31 plaque to display so that satisfies my samaichi left right not fixed heart

anyway if anyone's read this far. wow. you now know the depth of my devotion to smic uwu (as if it was not previously evident from my blog lol)

(pay no mind to the number of days login pls despite starting on day one i have missed. lmfao. A Lot)

and here's the proof that i did do the thing:

[discotenny]

I saw this yumejo tweet once that just made me go oh.

the idea of you being your f/o's comfort character....

like imagine. you are just a fictional character they happened to find and took comfort in.. you make them imagine a better, cozier life where they feel loved.. ramuda secretly takes little photos with an acryl stand of you at the cafes he tours or sasara keeps your keychain in his pocket for good luck and gives it a kiss before his shows, uhhhh toki always watches your show to power up before beating someone up- LMAO idk but rightttt??

OOOOOOH ANON THIS IS GOOD THIS IS GOOOOOOD

⋆｡°✩⋆｡°✩⋆｡°✩

Honestly, I feel like Ichiro would be the most obvious with his fanatics. He's already been shown in canon to be an unabashed anime / manga fan so can u imagine how he'd act towards you??!?!?!

Ichi has a binder full of prints for your official art that he keeps in the Odd Jobs Yamada office. He looks at it in downtimes, kicking his feet and squealing as he stares. Ichi also scours second hand sites to try and get merch for cheaper than official. He owns pins, stickers, plushies, and SO, SO MANY KEYCHAINS.

He honestly is the one most likely to write/read fan fiction too LMAO. Shipfic, platonic fics, reader insert- it doesn't matter. Don't tell his brothers, they'd be absolutely mortified.

Ramuda secretly runs one of those Twitter accounts that take pictures of their mochis/nuis in different irl settings!!! He MAKES little outfits for a nui of you and is so proud of all of them.

For every little cafe he goes to he always makes sure to take a pic that implies cute little nui of you is the one that just demolished 3 pieces of cake.

In the times where Ramu was still working with Chuuoku, he'd pull your nui out of his pocket and talk to you while he's scheming ;_; He has the image in his mind that you're the only one that would ever accept him as he is.

But my favorite image of this ask has to be DOPPO!! DOPPO!!! DOPPOOO !!! I saw this image once of ties that have anime charas in the inside and I think it's so silly to imagine Doppo has one of those of you AHAHAHA.

Doppo can't have personal items on his desk at work, so aside from his tie he has a little keychain of you tied to his bag :C Whenever he gets in his real shitty moods Doppo holds onto it and just mutters mutters mutters.

Since Doppo is the chara that speaks the most of his personal life / inner thoughts in his raps- imagine that he frequently mentions you in his verses and ship art of you and Doppo starts floating around in the Matenro fandom LOL. He'd be so embarrassed but he'd secretly love it.

⋆｡°✩

Bonus!!

Dice keeps a mochi of you in his pocket at all times, calling it his personal good luck charm. Whenever he's gambling he squishes it real hard and always has to apologize to it after.

Saburo is the most embarrassed about having a comfort character. The most obvious he is about it is having you as his desktop background but other than that he is too embarrassed to go out and buy merch. Ichiro buys him a lil plush of you for his birthday and he starts to cryyyyy.

Hitoya keeps an acrylic standee of you on his office desk but he faces it towards his clients LMAO. He comes across as so unserious.
