October Birthday: This one moment with you KHR Fanfic | Tsuna's Birthday - October 14th

⁍ Tags: KHR OCs, Tsuna Birthday Fic, Tsuna x Lucia ⁍ Featuring: Tsuna telling Reborn he sucks, Tsuna being a simp for Lucia (OC), me being very self-indulgent when writing this ⁍ Words: 2007 ⁍ Warning: for some reason this ended up being a fic about Tsuna turning 18, which I don't think is actually special but in my headcanon any Tsuna older than 19 is no longer being bossed by Reborn

Reborn gets to call all the shots on October 13th and 14th, because apparently both birthdays belong to him. Tsuna can never get a break, but I guess that's what Lucia is there for.

It was a wonderfully fine day. The sun was bright, its rays weren’t too hot nor was the shade they provided too cold, and the crispness of the air rustled and enriched the golden leaves dancing about. On this day, October was blooming. 

“I do understand the meaning behind joint birthdays, but—” Lucia heaved a sigh as she readjusted the rucksack weighing heavily on her shoulders; in hindsight, she shouldn’t have offered to carry her twin’s stuff too. “What’s the point of coming to the mountains?” 

The previously abandoned path, towered on both sides by thick and imposing trees of orange and red leaves, was bustling with the enthusiastic energy of their group — not one insignificant acquaintance had gone uninvited. Lucia wondered if the whole of Namimori town was there, and if they were there for want or for threat.

“Don’t ask me,” groaned Tsuna, carrying more backpacks than was humanly possible and, was that a hint of orange she could see in his eyes? 

“Because you had no say in this?” 

“Because I had no say in this.” 

Lucia could only laugh at that comment, but even her laughter was cut short as Tsuna gave a strangled scream and disappeared from her peripheral view. It took her less than a second to turn around, concerned he might have fallen victim to another pitfall — there were an awful lot of them for some reason. 

“Tsu—”

“What are you saying, Tsuna? This trip was your idea,” said Reborn, his unnecessarily bulky outfit hiding the brunet from view. The rough edges and gray of his costume closely resembled one of the rocks they had been running from earlier.

Lucia didn’t want to think about it, but the thought made itself known nonetheless, Did he disguise himself as a rock to chase us?

“I don’t think Tsuna can answer you... like that,” she gestured to the whole of them, feeling even more sorry for the brunet when Reborn jumped on him to get off. She crouched down, both hands extended to help him up, “Are you alright?”

“Physically? Could be better,” Tsuna answered, sitting up with as much dignity as someone who was now covered in dirt could manage — it wasn’t much, but it still was enough to make Lucia break into a smile. He took the handkerchief she offered to clean his face with a nod and added, “Mentally? I wanna kill him.” 

“Oh?” challenged Reborn, lips curling into a smirk. “I would like to see you try.”

“Demon.” 

“Loser.”

Lucia watched, awfully interested in how Tsuna thought he could possibly win an argument against the Reborn. She had known them, been welcomed into their midst and she had yet to see Tsuna win once against the child. She was unapologetically intrigued by this fool’s errand he had embarked on.

“Say tha—”

Unsurprisingly, as a known hitman of the underworld, with years of underhanded methods under his belt, Reborn won the argument by kicking Tsuna in the face. Mid-sentence. Without holding back.

You tried, Lucia put her hands together in prayer, hoping the kick didn’t cause a concoction. There wasn’t much she could do for the brunet, perhaps she could compliment him later for his daredevil attitude. 

“Everyone is waiting, let’s go!” and off he went, a trail of destruction and death in his wake. Reborn, elementary school kid appearance or not, was not a person to be trifled with. 

Lucia watched as the rest of them welcomed him, chatting cheerfully or even congratulating him on his birthday. She could understand how his attitude might be seen as charming or even cute, however, such skills could only be applied to people who were ignorant of the devil’s true nature. Although she wouldn’t go as far as calling herself Mister Wise Guy, she was confident she wouldn’t have fallen prey to Reborn’s charms anyhow, for she had found something far more charming than pretense. 

“Here, let me help you,” she said, taking some of the bags Tsuna was carrying off his hands. He had shown off his superhuman-mode for long enough, it was time he returned to his everyday-Tsuna-mode. 

Tsuna nodded in thanks, but something about his crestfallen face pulled at Lucia’s heartstrings. She could tell he was worrying about something, and it was something he didn’t want to talk with her about, but she wouldn’t be his girlfriend if she didn’t know how to pull such information from him. 

“Hey—” Lucia felt affection and appreciation warm her heart when his eyes focused on her, she only had to say one word for him to make her the center of his world; she felt seen and loved. “—you know, someone once told me it’s okay to need help.” 

“Yeah.” Tsuna scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, recognizing that she was throwing his own words back at him. Just as he had taken her hand and helped her through her darkest moments, Lucia wanted to do the same for him; both the easy and the hard, she wanted the two of them to see through life together.

“Do you want to talk about it?” 

“I did, have a trip in mind,” he admitted after a minute of silence, a weight seemed to lift off his shoulders as he picked himself up and walked by her side. “But in my fantasy, it was only the two of us.”

“Oh?” Lucia said, patting herself in the back for sounding so well put together despite feeling her heart beating right out of her chest. Her cheeks, bright red, could be compared to the radiance of the sun. “And where did we go, only the two of us?” 

Tsuna huffed, she could tell he was more embarrassed than annoyed by the question, “A planetarium.” 

“A... what?” Lucia had no problem holding conversations in Japanese these days, though, apparently, there were still words she didn’t know of. “I’m sorry, can you say it again? I’ll pay more attention!” 

“Planetarium, un planetario, a place where you can see stars,” he helped her along, his cheeks reddening. Lucia couldn’t fathom what there was to be embarrassed about, until he continued, “You said you wanted to go on one of those manga dates, so I thought...”

This time, instead of her heart, it was her feet that tripped over each other, causing her to stumble right into Tsuna. From this distance—there was none—she could feel his heart beating a fast rhythm, much like her own was doing. 

“It’s your birthday, you should do something you enjoy,” she whispered, wanting to keep this one moment between them. 

“I... enjoy seeing you smile.”

“You’re so stupid, Tsunayoshi.”

There was something exceedingly schoolish about camping in the woods and eating around a campfire, or at least, it certainly felt that way to Tsuna. How many times would anyone, in their daily life, have the time to hike a mountain and hold a birthday celebration like this? Statistically speaking, he wasn’t sure the number could exceed the hundreds. 

Even if his calculations were wrong—which definitely were—Tsuna highly doubted there was anyone, nowadays, who went camping and actually bothered drawing lots for lookout duty. And no, this wasn’t just because he lost six times in a row.  

Tsuna sighed, this was totally because he lost six times in a row. He didn’t bother looking up at the sound of footsteps, this he could accurately give out a name for. 

“You don’t have to keep me company, Lucia,” he said, failing miserably at not sounding like a sullen child who had lost at their favorite game. “I lost fair and square.”

“I wouldn’t call drawing lots with mafiosi fair, they never miss a chance to cheat their way through something.”

“Should have known.” 

“And I’m sure Reborn cheated but... He cheated by making you lose.”

It certainly worked in making Tsuna feel better about himself, after all, he should have expected such behavior from Reborn. Tutor or not, Reborn wasn’t satisfied until he made Tsuna suffer in one way or another, it was to keep him “humble” or so he said. 

“Actually,” Lucia started, drawing closer to him. Tsuna didn’t let such a gesture agitate him, he knew she wasn’t used to the chill of autumn, he could be totally cool about his girlfriend plastering herself to his side. Yup, he could totally do that. “I was hoping you would, you know, lose.”

“...What?”

“Not like that.”

“Is there any other way?”

“Yes.”

Tsuna had to raise an eyebrow at her, what other way was there to interpret her words? The lots were for the lookout duty and she wanted him to lose, therefore she wanted him to be on duty, what else was there to say? Sometimes, he truly and really couldn’t understand what went on in his girlfriend’s head.

“Stop looking at me like that!” laughed Lucia, standing up. She offered him a hand and, really, he shouldn’t be following her after she wounded his feelings like that but, follow he would — because he was that much of a loser for her, apparently.

“Your explanation better be good,” he said, lacing their hands together. It was at times like this that Tsuna realized how much of a simp he was. His heart was soaring with joy from the simple act of holding her hand. 

“Let’s hope it is!”

Their walk through the forest was silent and uneventful — save for Tsuna almost bringing the two of them down when he tripped over a log. It was around when Tsuna started to feel the burning need to ask where they were going that the sea of trees parted before them, leading into a cliff. 

“Why—”

Thousands of stars filled every corner of the dark sky, each shining just as brightly as the sun, if not more. Tsuna gasped as one of those stars began a fast descent, creating a single trail of ethereal blue that lasted but a few seconds. He looked to Lucia, his thoughts going to her even as the night sky begged for his attention. 

He found her already looking at him, her eyes reflecting some of the twinkling lights of the stars in ways he only thought were possible for manga characters. Was it real? Or was this simply a by-product of his feelings for her?  Under the eternal light of the stars, his jumbled thoughts and erratic heart seemed to hold little significance. 

“Is this...” Tsuna started but fumbled partway through, what was one supposed to say in the face of such a surprise? 

“It might not be the planetarium you thought of, but this feels just as special to me.” 

And how could Tsuna not love her in the face of that? He had dreamt up this whole fantasy of the two of them going on this fantastic date, only to have Reborn ruin the whole experience for him by organizing a camping trip to the most remote of mountains known to Japan and now his girlfriend was bringing that fantasy back, because she had seen how much it meant to him. Sure, he had had fun with his friends today, and would do the same on his birthday tomorrow, but some of that happiness had nothing on the dizzying sensation he felt whenever he was the cause for Lucia’s smile. 

“As long as you’re happy.”

“It’s your birthday, Tsunayoshi, you’re supposed to be the one getting spoiled.”

Tsuna laughed at that, something about her being angry at his silliness making her all the more endearing in his eyes. “I think I am.”

“Really?” 

“Really.”

Lucia grinned, her hands coming up to cradle his face as if he was something precious, something beloved. The chill he had felt until moments ago melted under the fiery touch of her fingers, “Happy birthday, Tsuna.” And thus she bestowed a noisy kiss on his nose, as though he were a frog prince in need of saving. Tsuna chuckled, he truly and really couldn’t understand what went on in his girlfriend’s head, and he was happy to keep it that way.

happy new year from my cute yakuza twin babies

[rakubalka]

KHR au where Skulls old circus sets up camp near Namimori and leaves with multiple extra passengers. Mainly Tsuna, Kiyoko and a few others who visited.

Skull might not be able to actively perform anymore because of the curse but I doubt he would leave his Territory permanently. I’m just imagining an accidentally flame active circus that only learns that their talents have a name from Skull coming back after the curse.

Reborn gets called in to train Tsuna but Tsuna isn’t there. He’s off learning how to a triple backflip on a motorcycle so he can inherit the Skull Name.

(popular shows and show names are sometimes passed on to who is currently doing them so Tsuna would be Skull on stage, while still being Tsuna off stage while Skull is unable to preform and therefore handed the title to Tsuna until he could.)

That would be hilarious

And really I can absolutely see something like that happening , after all flames work in mysterious ways

I imagine the ringmaster who started the whole cursus is a ridiculous Sky Mist mix that has been drawing flame active civilians and simultaneously driving away anyone with hostile intentions towards those to who their Sky is a home for years all without knowing it . The only reason they weren't selected to also be an Arco is because they are a mix . Maybe even make the reason they keep on collecting fame active people is because they are a Vongola bastard that slipped out of their grasp

Lest also just for the hell of it make the Arco be old like really old , like at least 50 years have passed since then and they have yet to drop dead

Now for what does what in the circus with our gang

Tsuna as mentioned by you is learning the inns and outs of doing Olympic level gymnastics on a motorbike from Skull who he calls Gramps or Grampa . They are probably also giving the public the story of Tsuna being Skull's grandson who has come to honor his grandfather and take back the title and name of Skull DeMort World's Greatest Stuntman . It makes a good enough excuse . And Skull is very proud is grandson wants to honor him in taking his name

Kyoko and Ryohei are a 2 or nothing package deal so we have both of them

Ryohei is probably either an acrobat , a strongman or by acting as security . Along with being overall a ball of sunshine that makes everyone (minus people with migraines) day happy

Kyoko on the other hand is a knife throwing artist with an eagle eye that never misses . There have been many many people who left the circus by an ambulance so she has to tone down before they became known as the circus who keeps on giving its audience members an cardiac arrest . When not throwing knives she is learning how to do magic tricks , even and if at the moment she is an assistant

Reborn can try and track Tsuna all he like he isn't getting him

Especially since the only people who have any chances to find the cursus are the two strongest mist and even then they still will have to really give their all in the search

I just know that at some point Mukuro and his gang are going to stumble upon this place and decide it's home

[rebornthestage]

Do you know where one could watch the future stage arc?

Hi! Sorry I don't know anyone sharing the stage plays anywhere.

If anyone can help anon out, feel free to leave a reply/ask/message!

[a-forbidden-detective]

It is here, my friends, it is here! The most awaited after-show talk of the Episode 26!!!

Azakami-kun and Enojun discussed their thoughts concerning what happened in the Plateau Auberge arc.

Some points of interest:

- RonToto’s relationship. “It is quite an unexpected development so far, and I was surprised. Growth, really, when you look back from episode 1, yes, yes, yes, they've grown, haven't they? It makes you feel nostalgic, doesn't it?”

- Both reiterated that every time Ron is in a pinch, Toto is always there to save the day. He was able to see beyond Tiger Dan’s lies. And Ron realised that Toto was right. He’s come a long way since the first episode.

- They mentioned that the case is quite long with “a prologue, a middle, an epilogue, and then a conclusion.” And the number of characters who died was many.

- Both are asking for support for the anime, not only the original work.

Enojun : I hope this cool season will be a big hit.

Azakami: That's right, everyone's support is being transformed into strength, and we want to aim for first place on all the distribution sites. We have that kind of determination, and if that feeling has reached everyone, I'd be happy.

- They were amazed of the number of costars, popular ones, seniors and juniors, who were cast.

Azakami: It was quite a large group, and the recording was really a luxury, wasn't it?

I think it was Enojun who said : “After all, you can tell who the culprit is by the famous voice actors, right? I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that, but everyone was so amazing that l didn't know who the culprit was.” (Both are laughing.)

- There was no huge gap between season 1 and season 2. So they were thinking if there was a huge one between seasons it might feel like, “long time no see.”

- They also mentioned that supporting cast members like Taku’s Spitz and Hikasa’s Amamiya had shorter appearances. Also, Matsuoka’s Milo Moriarty.

Azakami: They made such a cool appearance.

Enojun: They were the MVP, right? Spitz was amazing.

It must be the boon of voice acting industry when you are part of the cast but you don’t have many lines.

- Both were sad to see their costars disappear after a few sessions.

Azakami: Oh, “they're not here next week?" Just when you thought you were getting closer, they were gone. But Kosayu-san (Takehito, Tiger Dan) really brightened up the recording studio. (“His Tiger Dan was really cool!” <- Azakami-kun)

Enojun: Despite being the culprit, he seemed to be having a lot of fun.

- They gushed over the surprise voice actor of Mylo-bear, Neeko, who was Reborn on “Katekyo Hitman Reborn,” Akira Amano’s first successful work. Azakami said he was AA’s fan and was really elated. It delighted the KHR fans. In which way, Matsuoka told him his thoughts concerning the script.

Azakami: During a break, Yotsu-san quietly said, "Hey, I noticed something." In the script, it's written as "Milokuma," referring to Milo’s plush toy bear.

- Azakami wanted everyone to come back bc the story isn’t over yet. And they might have more lines to deliver. “Besides there is still that one traitor at the BLUE, right?”

- They were curious how will these individual characters interact with each other in the future.

- The two thanked the fans’ support and were amazed at the international ones, for the series’ popularity. Owing to the streaming sites, the recent stage adaptation and The Characters exhibition.

Azakami: I hope the story will be animated in the future, and I hope everyone will stream it near them.

Unfortunately, they didn’t discuss the “cancelled” sound of the dialogue at the end of the episode. Was it not a huge deal? Didn’t they get the excitement from the viewers? (Or did I miss that part?)

Anyway, here it is. I hope the third season won’t take long.

PS: if you have anything to add, please do!!!

[khr-doodling]

i'm still losing my mind about this au btw

[dark-elf-writes]

Oh!! The adult Percy meeting Adult Vongola ask reminded me of a (terrible, chaotic, awkward, etc) dream I had once, where Reborn found out that a fling before he was cursed resulted in a kid.

Who was Sally.

I don't remember much, but I /do/ remember that the whole thing started because Tsuna ran into Percy defending/teaching to monster fight a group of baby demigods*, and hyper intuition went "wait- that seems familiar" and they ended up finding out that Percy was Reborn's grandkid**.

I also Vividly remember a scene where Reborn and Percy are sitting across from each other, and as soon as Percy is read into some of the KHR nonsense, he just puts his head down and says something like "How is this /even weirder/ than my dad's side of the family" and then refused to elaborate.

(*I think one might have befriended I-pin at a park or something, and that's why Tsu was there? Idk

**It was very unclear how Reborn felt about that until they watched Percy just stare down a group of monsters, and then he was mostly just smug.)

The mental image of Percy speed running every stage of grief because he never stood a chance at a normal life only to ultimately settle on “Fuck it, we ball” is very funny to me

But also Reborn would be so damn smug seeing Percy in action. Like the power there? The skill? The multiple people mistaking him for a god? That would feed his ego for life like of course his grandson is that strong. He’s Reborn’s after all.
