hello delusional yuritshou (fem ritshou) person here asking your fem ritshou hcs… im obsessing over them rn lmao

(/nf ofc)

(i might be the other anon who talked about how much they loved your fem ritshou doodle page but i’m gonna be honest, i don’t remember)

hi there fellow delusional yuritshou person 🤝 thank you for this ask i'm always happy to talk about them, even tho i'm actually not sure what to reply JDSJD tbh i don't have many hcs that are specifically yuri (they could work for regular ritshou) but here are some random thoughts i've had about them if that works for you:

ritsu is canonically popular with girls so fem ritsu obviously still is too. her fangirls give shou the stink eye

shou absolutely hates being called cute like she gets so annoyed if anyone does, but if it's ritsu she forgets how to breath

this is a common ritshou trope i think but i like the idea of them sometimes sneaking out together, often at ungodly hours, and doing random stuff: one day they'd hang out at the park or take a walk in the city, other days they go exploring the woods or abandoned places etc etc. sometimes shou teaches ritsu how to use her powers during these outings and ritsu would get very obstinate when she can't manage to do something. one day she tried so hard that she ended up fainting and shou had to carry her home (and def stared longingly at ritsu once she left her on her bed)

i've also been thinking about this sports au that i didn't post here...DHFHGH basically their teams train in the same sports centre, they caught each other's attention and try to impress the other when they notice they are looking (shou on purpose, ritsu unconsciously)

they're both very competitive and have an ego, as they'd be one of the best players on their teams, if not the best. ritsu is used to people trying to approach her but she always acts disinterested, however that suzuki girl is being hard for her to ignore...

andd that's all i can think of as of now sorry if i went a little insane but they won't leave my brain </3 that said if anyone has any hcs for them PLEASE drop them in the comments or even send me an ask if you wanna do it anonymously i wanna hear other people's thoughts as well!!

BIG YES!!! they are foils! very red oni, blue oni material. they are friends! they can relate to one another as peers in a very powerful way that’s exclusive to shou and ritsu alone-- and we can build off of their dynamic with ease! 

they do ‘complete’ one another in a way, like a puzzle and also mirror one another. if i was to pick out and speculate only a tiny portions of their characterizations and compare them in my typical exaggerated fashion:

we have ritsu, fearful of one entity(with good reason), driven by self preservation and wildly neurotic (due to compulsively restrained behavior around mob and intense feelings of helplessness compounded for YEARs), yet stubborn and condescending (which it is canon that ritsu IS the Best ever at practically every normal middle-schooler thing and has every reason to believe he is superior, He’s the best and he knows it but that title becomes abstract and meaningless next to psychic power that his brother possesses, and the power his brother possesses is simultaneously desirable and terrifying) shou on the other hand has no reasons to fear anything (until the end of season two, that is and even then im not certain he’s been traumatized bc shou is almost infallible in a nearly flat sense.) and is fairly grounded mentally (ALBEIT in the delusional reality he’s been raised in) and stubborn too. shou’s sense of superiority stems from not from compensating for inferiority as ritsu’s might be, but rather shou’s natural talent for ESP elevates him-- and the fact that shou believes with unwavering confidence that he IS superior. no one has told him otherwise, in fact the case remains the opposite. 

how their relationship is interpreted is up to the individual readers of course and can vary from just a caring friendship or deep psychologically intertwined relationship (very open to have a healthy or unhealthy spin placed upon it), all thanks to their multidimensional characterizations. its that flexibility that has kept me entertained and loving the ship for a few years now. i enjoy SO MUCH how different fans interpret their dynamics. all of it is good imo.

thank u for the ask <3
