Why is Chizuru smiling in every photo except for her photo with Kazama even though Kazama is smiling?

[otobabe]

Please may you create headcanons on the hakuouki boys and even kazama if possible on what they would be like if your pregnant thank you

Ahhhh I'm not sure i'm the best to ask about pregnancy HCs, but I do have thoughts on how some of the Hakuouki boys would do babysitting with you! Hope that's an okay substitution 😘

🖤Amagiri- 100% in control. Patient, practiced, kind, he can help babysit kids of any age and will be able to keep conversation with you throughout the intermingling of kids conversations and questions! You'll happily be chatting about what you want for the future while playing your third round of 'Go Fish' with the kids, get asked "Do Caterpillars poop?", and Amagiri will be able to respond eloquently and correctly (yes, a lot, in pellet form much like a small rodent), and then smoothly continue your conversation whether it be "I do hope any future children of ours could inherit my well-defined cheekbones" or "I'm excited to see you progress in your career, I'll make sure to keep dinner warm on the table during your late nights". <3

❤️Sano- He's enjoys being around kids, even if he isn't "the best" at knowing what to do with him. Still, your favorite "date", if you could call it that, was babysitting twin 3 year olds with him. Watching him trying to hide that tall and lanky (begrudgingly handsome) frame behind a kid's sized chair for hide and seek, smiling on and cheering against him as they chased him in circles around the backyard for hours, and hearing the different inflections in his voice for different characters when the four of you snuggled up for their bedtime stories, all created a lasting memory of fun and laughter in your heart!

💚Souma- Fucking it up in the least damaging and hilarious way, which all in all means he does a pretty good job as your co-babysitter, so long as you're there to help clean up the mess. School age kids LOVE him, but they also love to tease and torture him. The kids you babysit together, ages 5 &7, know damn well how to get what they want out of him and con him into playing what they want to play. Homework? No, thank you! It's actually way past the time you were meant to show up for your haircut Kazue! Where do you think you're going?? Sit in this chair! Unfortunately for him, this will not have been the first time one of the kids have snuck a real pair of scissors into the mix and given him an "asymmetrical bob" before...

🤍Kazama- Might surprise some of you with this, but read it through before disagreeing with me! Kazama is fantastic with babies. Would he admit it? Absolutely not. But they love to coo and laugh at his various facial expressions (even his 'serious' ones) as he holds them, and something about his temperament is a true baby-sleep-whisperer to them. He won't forget to slide in comments about how, "It's cute, but ours would be cuter", and reminding you that you ARE betrothed to him and this could be your future soon enough. The cutest part? When you go to put down the baby for a nap, Kazama takes them from you and, a little degradingly, tells you that he "can do it better, you can just take a rest". The walls aren't that thick, so you can hear him lowly singing a lullaby that you'd never heard before to the baby in the rocking chair next door, and you snuggle up on the couch with a cup of warm cocoa daydreaming about your future together <3

Kazama is spending time with a cat, probably after Chizuru refuses him. Lol

These are my own (not very high quality) scans from the art book that comes with the Ten'un no Shou box. These illustrations were originally serialized in the magazine Dengeki Girl's Style. (My fav from this series is Sannan-san. Really stunning.)

not the biggest fan of kazama's route, but the epilogue?? oh yeah that shit cooking MMHMMHH

[custarii]

Something interesting about the demon lore from Toki no Kizuna, is the fact that prior to Battle of Sekigahara, there exists some kind of animosity between western/eastern clans to the central clan (Yase).

The main reason why Kazama seemed adamant from pursuing Sen, despite having what is considered higher ranking in blood, is the history of Yase not aiding the western and eastern clans. When they had been pushed into a blight, whether it be due to human interference or scarcity issues, the Yase had turned away their head -- thus with their history with men, they decided to ally with them, instead rather than their kin that abandoned them. Their inner politics seemed to be more partial to those of Yase, who had the influence to summon the clans, which can be due to being a direct descendant of the Suzuka Gozen and the imperial blood.

On the same hand, these ancestors' parents had already been working alongside humans for a while, though the more extreme side of this is Nagumo Shiyuu's -- his father committed seppuku because of the depravities he'd done for men, and left him to become the new head. I believe he had been 20, which they claimed to be too young (or youngest, in comparison to previous and current heads), which we can see why he acts in such childish ways. And there's the thing about him using paper cranes as his weapon -- Chizuru, I'm very suspicious of why your parents have decided to name you as such, considering that history ◖⁠⚆⁠ᴥ⁠⚆⁠◗

Then we have Kazama Chikage and Shiranui Kyo, they were near this age and had seemed to be the heads of their clan for a while. The reason for their pessimistic tendencies can be alluded to their doubts of the Yase (though they do cooperate with them amicably), and the fact that they may have had the same history with Shiyuu -- and of course, they were also too young when they had to assume the role of the leader, which is why outside their duties under the domains, they seemed to be whimsical in a way that made it seemed that they were trying to reclaim their own identities, almost to the point of foolishness. Kazama in Hijikata's route is one side of him trying to regain himself, abandoning his duties, and had seemed happier when he had saved himself in the form of his death. In the terms of honor, he had regained his pride than becoming a fugitive and slaves for men. In Saito's route, we can say he went to the opposite -- this version of pride was out of desperation, wanting to save his kin and himself by ruining his principles. His actions were always for the better of his kin, his interests the second. It's probably the reason why despite his (honestly) horrible attitude, Shiranui still stayed by his side, being in the same position.

Back to topic. Although the Jukkishuu was formed in response to the omen of war and the tragedy that they would need to kill their kin, the results have a more direct impact to the Yase -- the eastern and western clans have long sundered into their own allegiances and are protected by it(albeit we can see in the latter Hakuouki, it didn't exactly bode well for the Yukimura). The system was abolished after the incident, and it seemed rather...odd? The council was formed to unite the clans, and it was easily dissolved just because the omen had passed -- you are literally a dying kind, why would you decide to divide yourself again??

We can consider this a plot discrepancy they may have overlooked, but let's try to rationalize this into the story as something deliberate. On TnK, depending on the route, we can see how the clan politics can be followed into Hakuouki. If Suzumori Yukina didn't go for any of the dudes, she assumes Kazuha's route due to her death, becoming the Yasehime and the omen(and we can then say the omen, in fact, is for her!) would still pass. The Yase and Suzumori would then merge to what we know in Hakuouki as a bodyguard/ward (but appeared to be more of a sisterly) relationship between Sen and Kimiguku. If the plot follows this, we can say that the Yase would've ultimately lost their connections with the other clans (which was answered in the fandisc again, she was told by the elders to choose her mate despite not pursuing any). It's probably why in Kazama's route, they still took the Yase's counsel, but did not exactly tell all of their plans/actions to them. The Yase have lost(or have significant reduced) their influence over other clans after their refusal to act before Sekigahara, during Sekigahara, and at the Burning of Yukimura Estate. They can act neutrally in those instances, as those of the west cannot access them due to their allegiance to be seen as an act of treason. But, they didn't!

--also I have to interject the fact that the Suzumori's ability is agility, Yukina was able to outpace Amagiri Kazutake in the fandisc. Do what you want with that info >:3

You know we’re really always talking about representation and how good it feels, and yes it was amazing to see yaoi fangirl Niko in DBD!

But…

A Kazama poster?! Niko, honey, Hijikata is clearly the superior choice, come on.
