Monday

__

Ayano had been acquaintanced with Kizana before. She whined a lot, complained a lot, but still was one of the most organized clubs in Akademi. The mix between people who liked her was cut 9% of people who genuinely liked her, and 90% of people who didn’t like her but feared her. Ayano was likely the 1% who didn't care either way.

Info-Chan hadn’t explained what else Ayano had to do regarding the gyaru’s tasks. All she claimed was that it would come in handy later. Additionally, Info-Chan suggested possibly getting a job. If not for more money, then to earn a reputation around town. Ayano didn’t understand what good that would really do, but rationalized that more money was always worth the effort.

Not that that mattered at the moment. What mattered was Kizana’s suspicious sudden interest in Taro. Truthfully, Ayano never imagined that Kizana could even be a problem. Kizana was pretty high in the popularity ranks and Taro was on a more humble scale. Not to mention she already had several students slaving after her. What could she possibly want Taro for?

That’s what Ayano hoped to find out, though, while she stood around a corner, trying her best to listen to the conversation that Kizana and Taro were having in front of the Drama Club room. From afar it seemed far too cozy for Ayano’s liking.

Kizana chuckles proudly, not surprised at all at Taro’s wish to get into the club. “Of course, I’ve seen you hovering around! Twas only a matter of time before you got the courage to approach me!” She looks back briefly to Tsuruzo, who was accompanying her throughout the day to help her properly prepare for the play. “Us.” She corrects herself, flipping one of her drilled ponytails over her shoulder.

Tsuruzo seems happy with her correction, although he doesn’t bring himself to speak just yet. Whenever a new member wanted to join, he usually left it to Kizana to do the introduction and decision-making , unless it was the case of just three weeks prior, where she was absent for a time.

“Right.” Taro chuckles lightly, seeming a bit hesitant to be interacting with someone as bumptious as Kizana. That was natural considering how quiet Taro usually was. “I’m… Well, I’m not 100% sure on joining just yet, but I was wondering if I could… I guess volunteer to help with the play this week? Maybe get some acting tips..?” He continues, shifting his weight from one foot to the other, which Kizana seems to notice. “I’ve been… interested in acting for a while.”

“Hm.” Kizana raises a hand to her chin, nonchalantly circling Taro, which visibly makes him more nervous. Before he could stutter out some other sort of response, she smiles and leans herself on his shoulder. “Oh, of course you can volunteer! It’s really just an extra hand, isn’t it? And I’m not held responsible for whatever you screw up!” She says cheerfully, booping his nose despite her last comment.

Ayano scowls at the physical contact at all, but keeps herself quiet and still so as to not be noticed by the three. As she listens in, Info-Chan suddenly texts her.

Info-Chan: You should volunteer, too.

Info-Chan: The club already likes you generally speaking, so you should try your best to get into Kizana’s good graces by working with her.

Ayano pauses in thought, and decides that that’s a pretty good idea. The only two in the club currently that don't have any significant opinion about Ayano are both Shozo and Kizana, although Kizana does have good words about her from Tsuruzo. Maybe Shozo should be someone she tries to get closer to as well..

Ayano’s thoughts are interrupted as a familiar voice calls to her.

“Good morning, Ayano.” Taro greets briefly, smiling and waving to her as he walks by.

Rather than responding in any way, Ayano just freezes in place. Her face suddenly felt incredibly hot, and Taro wasn’t even nearby any more. It was thrilling whenever Taro noticed her, but it happened so out of the blue and remained so brief. If only Ayano could figure out a way to function like any human being whenever Taro was around.

Suddenly, Ayano hears someone else call to her. “Ayano! It’s always a pleasure to see you.” Tsuruzo beams at her. He likely noticed her when Taro greeted her. “Your help last week is so incredibly appreciated.” He leans in slightly, saying in a lower tone. “I don’t think I’d ever admit this to Kizana, but we were quite behind before we received your help.”

Before Ayano could respond, a sharp clear of the throat was heard behind Tsuruzo. “Ahem.” It was Kizana, who looked somewhat skeptically at Tsuruzo and Ayano, although Ayano couldn’t place why. “We have errands to run, Tsuruzo. I fear this will be quite the full week.” She sighs, looking exhausted before even having gotten started.

Tsuruzo smiles at Kizana, stepping back to stand beside her. “I’ve no doubt that this week will go exactly as planned, Kizana.” He assures her, which she visibly appreciates with a light smile.

“Hmph. Well, I suppose it’s only right that I take your word for it.” Kizana claims, her cheeks growing slightly pink as she tosses her hair over her shoulder again.

This time, Ayano speaks up. “Actually, I wanted to know if I could continue running errands for your club.” She says, looking between the two leaders. “I think I could learn some valuable information, and I have nothing but time right now.”

“Hmm.” Kizana raised her hand up to her chin yet again, although her expression looked more disapproving and suspicious than the look she gave Taro. Part of Ayano wondered if Kizana simply disliked her. She seemed to like her when they first met, so what would have changed?

Kizana looked to Tsuruzo for insight, who seemed quite enthusiastic about the idea based on his bright smile. She pauses in thought before sighing. “Oh, alright.” She points a finger to Ayano. “You’ll stick with me and help me run errands. Tsuruzo, if you could please deal with the Taro boy?”

Tsuruzo nods, happy to help. “Of course. See you during lunch.” He waves to both Kizana and Ayano before turning to trail after wherever Taro had gone.

As soon as he leaves, Kizana’s suspicious expression returns as she looks at Ayano. “Yan-Chan, was it? What’s your type?” She asks immediately, shocking Ayano slightly.

“Um.. type? You mean… romantically?” Ayano asks, receiving a stiff nod from Kizana as the drama club leader folded her arms.

“Well…” Ayano hesitates. “I-I can’t say I have a type. I do prefer, um… simpler, more average-looking people? I..think. Why do you ask?” Ayano was really just trying to use whatever Info-Chan had used to explain Taro, but if Ayano were to honestly explain Taro, it would be in a far more starstruck way.

Kizana didn’t seem satisfied with that answer, but ignored her own thoughts to continue with their task at hand. “Well, anyway, let’s head to the auditorium, we’ve things to do.” She sighs, walking ahead without waiting for Ayano to catch up.

__

As the two entered the auditorium, Ayano took in just how much effort was being put into making the area look nice. The art club was scattered around, hanging up decorations while the flower club helped to put up the many, many roses they’d been growing over the past few months.

Floral decorations had been put all around. Even arches had been put up around every exit and entry, and large plants had been set up on the balcony to hang over and give a fancy, whimsical look. On the balcony, Sumire was walking around and watering the flowers that were hanging over the sides. She spotted Kizana and immediately leaned over.

“Hey, Kizana! Uekiya wants to know if the morning glories are too long!” She calls, nearly falling off the side but quickly catching herself.

Kizana doesn’t comment on that possible near-death experience and looks around at the hanging flowers, which were apparently morning glories. “I want the longer ones to be over the door way, and I want them just a few inches shorter on every one of the other ones.” She pauses before adding, “Aren’t these a bit… leafy? There are hardly any flowers!”

“Well, yeah, but the more flower-y purple flowers like clematis and wisteria are poisonous to humans, so there’s no way we could hang those around!” Sumire explained, leaning onto the railing and proceeding to almost drop her watering can.

Kizana again ignores that possible injury and sighs. “Ugh, of course. My luck is dreadful..” She sighs dramatically, leaving Sumire with a somewhat awkward expression.

“Okay, well… Scilla!” Sumire calls to the male, who was carrying another pot of flowers inside the auditorium. He looks up to her in question.

Sumire points to one of the many hanging plants. “Do you think you can cut any plant that isn’t hanging over a doorway maybe three to five inches up?” She then drags her finger over to a bucket sitting near one of the exits. “And then put them in that bucket!”

Scilla nods, placing the pot of flowers down and then pulling his favorite pair of scissors out of the pocket of his gardening apron. Ayano was unsure why he was allowed to carry that around, especially considering how many accidents have been caused because of it.

Ayano turns around, realizing that Kizana had quickly left without her, and rushes to follow her. Behind the stage, Kokona was sitting in a chair, rehearsing lines as Riku worked on one of the lights, which they had apparently taken down from the ceiling of the stage.

Kokona sighs, leaning on one of the tables next to Riku. She looks at her script. “I’m just not sure what’s wrong. I feel like my voice right now is… okay, but it’s missing something. Or, maybe I’m just… doing it all wrong? I can’t place it..”

Riku hums lightly, seeming to finish something in the light before looking up to Kokona with a smile. “Perhaps it’s because you’re mocking another narrator?” He looks back down to the light and continues working with a screwdriver. “You usually make your voice more deep and dramatic, which leads me to believe that you’re trying to sound like someone else when you narrate.”

“I-I do? Well, I guess I knew that, but I thought it was theatrical..” Kokona claims bashfully, tilting her head as she looks at the script.

“Well, Kokona always has had an ugly habit of copying others.” Kizana claims with a huff, making her presence known in her regular unnecessary manner.

“I..” Kokona starts, but doesn’t really have much to retort with that Kizana hasn’t already heard.

Riku sighs, shaking his head disapprovingly at Kizana. “It’s admiration, Kizana. If you lent Kokona a hand with her hairstyles then she’d likely be able to find a hairstyle that looked a little less than your own.” He claims. He moved aside a pile of screws and pulled a piece of the light off, looking to see what exactly could be changed to somehow fix it.

Kizana rolls her eyes. “Oh, come on. Everyone knows how to function a basic set of pigtails. A ponytail? A bun? It doesn’t have to- are you repairing the light?” She asks, looking shocked at that find.

“Yes. I was doing a light check to see if everything worked, but this one shone strangely.” Riku explained, tapping the piece he had pulled off. “This one looks badly dented, so I might have to try to find a tool in the workshop to help bend it back into shape.”

Kizana raises her eyebrows. “Is that right? That’s impressive, you’ve never told me about your hardware skills.”

Riku shrugs with a light hum. “We’ve never had a busted light. It must have dented the last time it fell from the bars.” He guesses, piquing Ayano’s interest.

“How did it fall?” Ayano asks, probing Kokona to smile and wave at her happily. She gave a brief wave back.

“I’m pretty sure it was just old. We aren’t allowed to buy any items until next Monday, so we won’t be able to repair it properly just yet.” Riku says, setting the piece of metal aside and standing up from his chair. “Ah.. I think I’m going to go check the other lights, just to be sure. It’d be dreadful if any of them were to fall on someone.” He sighs, the thought alone chilling.

Chilling to him, at least. It sounded outstanding to Ayano. If it could fall on Kizana, that would be lovely. Then Taro would have no reason to join the Drama Club, and he would no longer have an admirer or a reason to get close to anyone in the club. That sounds perfect to Ayano, in fact. She wondered how she would go about that scheme.

Kizana clears her throat out sharply, giving Ayano another suspicious look and follows her gaze to where Riku had just left. She didn’t comment on it, though, and simply went onto the matter at hand. “We can move onto checking on Shozo and his affairs now.” She claims, turning her gaze to Kokona. “I think your narration is fine for the play, Kokona, so don’t waste time doubting yourself. It’ll hold off my performance and make you more susceptible to pimples. You know this.” She hisses.

Ayano couldn’t figure out if that was Kizana attempting to be nice, but she knew that it was likely that the compliment backfired immediately as it was followed by complaining. Regardless of Kizana’s intentions, Ayano quickly followed the drama club leader out of the auditorium as they headed towards the gardening club.

__

Uekiya was busy picking seeds from flowers that seemed to have been cut previously by Scilla. She was sitting on her knees on the ground, picking up cut vines and flowers from one bucket, and then separating the seeds and leftover foliage into two other buckets. Nearby, Shozo was standing and looking at several other pots of flowers, a clipboard and pen in his hand. He seemed to be counting the amounts of plants and writing the information down.

Tucked away in a corner, Ayano hadn’t even noticed him, Geiju was sitting in a chair with an art book resting on his leg. He seemed to notice Ayano and Kizana enter the garden first and immediately stood up. Flipping to a certain page, Geiju approached Kizana and lifted up his art book, revealing several shades of certain colors like red and purple pasted onto the book.

Kizana notices him approach and lifts an eyebrow at his gesture. She stares at the open page for a moment before she looks up at him, unamused. “I know you don’t talk much, but you still talk. Use your two words.” She huffs, crossing her arms.

Geiju’s eyebrows lowered, looking equally displeased at her response. “Pick some.” He holds his pencil out to her and points to the colors. “For decoration.”

“Decoration..? Hmm…” Kizana furrows her eyebrows in thought, plucking the pen from Geiju’s hand and pulling a hand up to her chin in thought. Their interaction seems to grab the attention of Uekiya, who stands up to greet them.

“Ladies!” Uekiya beams at the two, brushing her gloves off on her gardener’s apron. “I take it you’re looking for all the details for the decorative flowers? We’ve got the flowers for the show set aside still growing so that they’re fresh once the big day comes.” She explains, giving Ayano a brief closed-eye smile as a greeting.

Kizana circles a couple colors on Geiju’s book but turns to Uekiya with a nod. “That’s right. I see you’ve grown plenty of roses.” She looks at the corner of the garden that had been specifically cared for and dedicated for Friday. It took up nearly a full fourth of the garden due to the sheer amount of rose bushes held inside. “It seems a bit excessive, don’t you think? How am I going to use all of these? Too many flowers could be a slipping hazard, you know!”

Uekiya chuckles wryly, but nods. “I agree. I was actually going to ask you about the amount specifically. Leftover flowers are really no problem, but I wanted to know where exactly we would have to gather them. And if it would be now or later.” She waves Shozo over and points to his clipboard. “I personally recommend later just for the sake of keeping everything fresh, but we do have plenty to spare, so hypothetically we could cut a few roses and then place them in a few areas for the day, see how they feel, and then decide on something special for Friday? Just so we don’t spend all day picking different patterns to put them in.”

“Hmm, well…” Kizana allows herself to look back over to Geiju’s art book as she thinks, successfully picking which colors she would like for what while directing Uekiya what to do with certain plants.

Ayano watched her jump between the two of them, before she dragged her gaze over to Shozo. The male in question seemed to have noticed something on his clipboard. With furrowed eyebrows, he scribbled something onto the clipboard with a frustrated frown. Seeing this as a chance to be helpful, she walked closer to Shozo.

“Hello, Shozo. Is something the matter?” Ayano asks, folding her hands in front of her lap with a curious expression. She wasn’t yet sure what sort of company Shozo preferred, so she couldn’t pull up a particular persona just yet.

Shozo nodded as a greeting, but his frown deepened at the question. “Yeah. Just a mistake, really.” He explains briefly, but after seeing Ayano’s curious expression, he decided to explain further. “Well… In return for the gardening club using their funds and resources to get us so many flowers for decoration, we were going to offer some of our funds in order to get them more important resources like fertilizer. Unfortunately, I misread the count of how much they needed and now they have less than we promised. We won’t be able to get any more in until next week, which is really inconvenient for them.”

Ayano frowns as well, trying her best to seem sympathetic. “That’s unfortunate. How many bags are you missing?” She asks. Her plan was to buy the bags for him, and she was wondering if she could afford it at all.

Although he looked confused as to why Ayano was asking at all, Shozo did eventually respond. “Six bags.” He says, “It probably doesn’t sound like much, but that’s 60 pounds Uekiya’s missing for the plants that we’re asking her to grow for us. And she’s going all out, even with the limited supply.” He looks a bit disappointed in himself at the mistake he’s made, but doesn’t go into it.

“I take it, it's not an option to just have someone else buy it?” Ayano asks, raising a hand to her chin in thought.

“For $120? We’d rather leave that amount for the school funds.” Shozo grins slightly, but it’s only to give a mocking scoff. “It’s not like many of us in the club have the best income from our personal lives. Whatever Kokona and Tokuko make are meant to be saved for their own personal reasons, Tsuruzo doesn’t make enough to spend on the club, I don’t even have a job, Riku’s parents don’t let him spend money on school activities, and Kizana..?”

Shozo looked over to the purple-haired girl in question as she seemed to finish up her conversation with the two club leaders. “...I mean, she is one of the richest students in the school, but she was against paying Uekiya at all. From her perspective, she was asking Uekiya to do something she loved for her using the school’s funds.”

“I see. I guess the odds are just stacked against you right now.” Ayano says, shaking her head, “Sorry to hear that.”

Shozo’s expression lightens up a bit at the sympathy and he shrugs a bit. “Snags like this happen. It’s nothing out of the ordinary.” He pauses, before nodding at Ayano, “I… appreciate the sympathy, though.”

A sharp snap of Kizana’s fingers snatches Ayano’s attention. “We’re done here, Ayano.” She claims, not waiting for Ayano to respond before leaving the area.

Ayano nods as a goodbye to the three other students, before quickly following her.

__

As the two walk, Kizana remains silent, outside of occasional responses to greetings. For some reason, Kizana seemed a tad bit stiff- or at least far more from when the two had first met. Perhaps those first encounters were just for the sake of flattery, and now she had no reason to show such politeness? That would definitely emphasize how bad of a choice she was for Taro.

Ayano’s phone buzzes, and she sees that Info-Chan has left her a bit of free information on Kizana.

Info-Chan: I see you have your eye on Kizana! ;D

Info-Chan: Thankfully, I can give you all the information you need to confirm your suspicions!

Info-Chan:

Ayano’s brows furrow as she reads the information given to her. It was already somewhat obvious that Kizana liked attention, but she didn’t know that she had a full-on crush on Taro. That explained her spontaneous interest.

Yan-Chan: So she does have a crush on him?

Info-Chan: That’s what I said :)

Info-Chan: The better question is, what are you going to do about it?

Pausing in thought, Ayano thinks. What could she do? More likely than not, Kizana is going to spend most of her time around others planning and practicing for the play. Maybe there was a way to get closer to her so she could convince her to come somewhere private. But even so…

Ayano looks up to Kizana’s back as the club leader walks as prim as ever. As she stared, she wondered how exactly she would get close to Kizana considering the kind of person she is. Doing favors was a start, but she needed to prove to Kizana that she was more than just a servant girl. But how?

As Ayano repeated the exact same question to herself over and over again in an attempt to think, Kizana’s phone suddenly rang. Kizana sighs, seeming somewhat stressed and unwilling to answer a call at the moment. Still, as she looked at the called ID, she seemed to relax, and almost seem a bit brighter after seeing whoever it was.

Kizana looks at Ayano and points a finger to her. “You stay here. We still have things to do.” She says, leaving Ayano at the entrance of the school as she walks back outside to take the call. She didn’t go too far, and her loud voice was clear enough for Ayano to hear if she took a few steps closer.

“Hello, mother! How are y..you… huh?” Kizana’s bright answer immediately dwindled down into a confused mumbled as the other person on the phone- her mother- speaks. After a second, Kizana nods, “Well, yes, I understand. Did… something bad happen..?” She asks hesitantly, raising a hand to her chest. Her demeanor immediately shrunk from confident to deathly worried just by whatever her mother had said.

Suddenly, Kizana nearly screeches, “Wh-What?! But- But I…” She pauses for another moment, allowing her mother to speak, before her voice escalates further. “..I-I know, I- I believed that would be a choice, but… I… I have- I have everything I could want here, mom, I don’t–” After another response from her mother, Kizana quiets down significantly, “...but I don’t want to. Why take such drastic measures..? I–”

Once again, Kizana is cut off, and for a few moments, her responses are nothing short of weak hums and quiet, reluctant confirmations. “I…I understand…” She mutters, hanging her head in defeat. After another mumble, she hangs up, looking down at her phone.

Kizana sighs first, before raising a hand to massage her temple with a long groan. “Perfect…” She hisses to herself.

Ayano takes this time to return to her spot and look away from Kizana, appearing as nonchalant and uninformed as possible. Kizana eventually strides back, looking practically the same outside of a more harsh gaze. “Come.” She demands simply, once again walking ahead without bothering to wait for Ayano’s reply. Bad mood or not, this proved that Kizana really just was this type of person. Not that Ayano minded. More fuel to use against her, she rationalized.

Again, Info-Chan texted Ayano.

Info-Chan: Look at you! Learning and stuff :3

Info-Chan: Now you should keep an eye on whoever seems closest to Kizana, see if she’ll speak to them about whatever her distress is about.

Yan-Chan: Right.

Yan-Chan: I feel as though Tsuruzo might be that person in Kizana’s case.

Yan-Chan: I’ll keep an extra close eye on him.

Info-Chan: As you should!

Info-Chan: And here’s your last tip of the day-

Info-Chan: Study biology and physical ed in all of your free time!

Info-Chan: You’re sincerely going to need it ^^

__

“Thanks for showing me around, Tsuruzo! It definitely seems like joining the Drama Club would be a good idea. Still, I think I’ll stick to volunteering for now.” Taro says, smiling at the taller male.

Tsuruzo nods reassuringly. “Don’t you worry! You wouldn’t be the first. Still, you’ve expressed the most interest in this club out of anyone, and Kizana seems to have very high hopes for you.” He chuckles confidently, “I’m sure we can find a way to fit you comfortably in the club.”

Tsuruzo immediately spotted Kizana from across the hall, and led Taro over to her. “Hello, Kizana.” He looks around briefly, realizing that Ayano was no longer with her. “Where might Ayano be?”

Kizana huffs, although Tsuruzo couldn’t place what exactly that exasperated action was directed to. The purple-haired girl tossed one of her drilled pigtails over her shoulder for the nth time that day and responded quickly. “She’s off running some errands. As am I. What about you and our possible-newest member?” She asks, shooting Taro a charming smile.

Taro smiled bashfully at Kizana’s attention, and nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “Well, I’m certainly interested. I’m still debating on actually joining, though. I’ll definitely need more than a day or two.”

Kizana didn’t seem too bothered by this answer, and instead shot him a confident smile. “Well, you’ve all the time in the world.” She then shrugs, “Not really, but you get my point. Take your time, darling! No decisions are good decisions if they’re rushed.”

“I agree.” Taro responds, looking happy at Kizana’s reassurance.

“If you end up being particularly talented, you could even earn the role of Romeo, you know.” Kizana claims.

Taro seemed excited and anxious about that opportunity, although Kizana didn’t miss how Tsuruzo stiffened and looked at her in question at her statement. “That sounds exciting! I’ll make sure to work hard.” Taro claims, smiling happily at the thought.

The school bell rang and Taro took that as his time to leave. “I’m going to head to class now. See you there, Kizana.” He says, waving briefly to both her and Tsuruzo.

After he was out of earshot, Tsuruzo gave Kizana a troubled look. “The role of Romeo, Kizana?” He repeated her words, although he was significantly lacking his usual bravado.

Kizana hums, her voice and expression lax as she smiles at Tsuruzo. “Oh, don’t you worry about that.” She swats her hand back and forth dismissively, stepping right next to Tsuruzo to hang onto his arm. “Consider it a method of encouragement for the poor thing. He’d have to be… be Toshiro Mifune to replace you.”

Even as Tsuruzo seems to relax slightly at her reassurance, Kizana lifted a hand to guide his face to look at her. “I’ve seen how hard you work. I’d have to be stupid not to.” She smiles charismatically as Tsuruzo’s face slowly turns more and more red. “I hope you’re not insinuating that you think I’m stupid, Tsuruzo.” She hums in a low tone.

After struggling for a moment, Tsuruzo exhales, his face far more red than he would have liked. “If…If I didn’t know any better, I’d assume that you were trying to.. distract me.” He says, again internally punching himself for not sounding as charismatic as he attempted to.

Kizana’s facade eventually falls and she forces herself to look away and let go of him before he can see the redness of her own face. She sputters, trying her best to sound as offended and confident as possible. “The fact that you aren’t distracted is insulting.” She huffs, sheepishly twirling one of her drilled ponytails around her fingers.

Tsuruzo leans over just a bit, trying to catch a glance at her face, but is interrupted by a sharp ‘ahem’ coming from behind them.

Tokuko stood with an irritated expression, her hands on her hips. She looked more tired than usual, and even her hair looked unintentionally more high-volume than it usually was. The only reason Kizana would say that it looked bad is because she wasn’t used to Tokuko doing anything different with her hair outside of performances.

“You know, teenagers like you usually do that in bathrooms or storage closets.” Tokuko claimed, her voice filled with a judgemental tone, although this wasn’t unusual for her.

With a roll of her eyes, Kizana crosses her arms. “Tokuko, I haven’t seen you all day. I see you’re starting your day with the energy of Juliet in act 5.” She grins, raising her eyebrows. “Scene 3.”

“Dead?” Tokuko guessed, crossing her arms as well, as if trying to mock Kizana’s sass.

“Unhelpful.” Kizana smirks, although she’s only rewarded by Tokuko rolling her eyes.

Tsuruzo smiles at their banter before leaning down a bit to Kizana. “I’m heading to class. See you after.” He says, briefly placing his hand on her back before leaving the two ladies to bicker.

Tokuko watches him leave and returns to glaring at Kizana. “I request more time to myself rather than practice this week.” She says, although her tone attempted to emphasize that this was something she planned on doing more than something she was asking permission for.

“Sure.” Kizana shrugs, before immediately hissing, “If you want to fail.”

“A little time away from practice won’t deteriorate my skills, Kizana.” Tokuko sighs, rolling her eyes yet again- something she found she did often when she was in Kizana’s presence.

Kizana scoffs. “It will with you no longer taking those voice lessons. Do you know what all the melodies you need to sing during the performance are? Do you have a list or an idea or a plan?”

Tokuko groans. “I’m just asking for a little time to myself, Kizana. I’ve taken on that new job- I need some time to destress.”

“Destressing, Tokuko,” Kizana begins, placing a hand on her hip and giving her clubmate a nasty look, “is for after school. Not club time. Not practice time.” She scoffs, sounding offended at Tokuko’s suggestion. “You shouldn’t choose an important time like practice for your ‘destressing’. Especially time that may drag my progress down. We’re depending on a vocalist and that’s all you do.”

Kizana points an accusatory finger at Tokuko with a strict expression. “Take all the time you need. But if your ‘destressing’ ruins our performance, Tokuko, you will not be forgiven.” She says before adding with a calmer, although just as stern expression, “You understand, don’t you?”

What Tokuko’s answer was didn’t matter to Kizana, as she simply walked past her in order to get to class. Tokuko scoffs, now left alone in the hall. Part of her feels like even if Kizana had given her the time with no questions asked, she’d still find a way to ruin Tokuko’s mood.

Before she could dwell on it further, a familiar ding tone erupted from her phone. Her mood immediately grew calmer at who was texting her- a friend she could only contact online. Equally, a friend she didn’t think she’d ever have since she was hardly online before she got in contact with this guy.

ToKita: I can’t catch much of a break since my job lets me off late, so I’m trying to catch a break while at school.

Clandestein: (Mission Impossible)

ToKita: But she’s super absorbed in this performance we’re doing at the end of the week

ToKita: And she doesn’t want me to take a break :(

Clandestein: Betcha she’ll take plenty of breaks.

ToKita: She would!

ToKita: She’s always been this way.

ToKita: It’s the whole reason I’m convinced that any friends she has are paid

Clandestein: LOL

Clandestein: That’d be hilarious. At least you know that you have more friends than her! ;D

ToKita: That I do.

ToKita: I wish someone would just give her a scare :(

ToKita: She’s too lax and way overconfident

ToKita: I’m usually above pranks but I’d love to scare her at this point with one

Clandestein: If you do make sure you send a video to me!!!!!

Clandestein: Imagine it’s like a stalker serial-killer moment

Clandestein: Like, she keeps looking over her shoulder, thinking someone’s following her

Clandestein: And when she finally investigates, no one’s there!

Clandestein: She turns around, “Oh, well… must have been the wind…”

Clandestein: And then BOOM!

Clandestein: Oni mask to the face!!

ToKita: I want to see that sooooooo bad!!

Clandestein: Your wish is my command! :DDDDD

ToKita: Ha, I wish.

Clandestein: I’ll send my good vibes your way!

Clandestein: Hopefully Kizana stubs her toe on her way home

Clandestein: Whoo!

ToKita: Whoo.

ToKita: lol ^^

Tokuko turns off her phone and begins heading to class. “Clandestein”- who’s real name was apparently just “Stein”- was a fun character. Not even a friend Tokuko would imagine herself having if it weren’t for his funny remarks about whoever Tokuko complained about. Although that was usually just Kizana.

Still, he did always make her feel better. And frankly, he might be the sole reason she’s still dealing with Kizana’s unnecessary sass. She wasn’t sure what she’d do without him.

The distribution of students by class (This is not my idea btw).

I had the idea for a long time to translate into English and post this post, but for some reason I thought about it for a long time. In general, this idea is not really mine, I was inspired to do it by one person (I admire they headcanons, heheh), however, I don't know how to mark them on the blog-...I'm sorry.🥹

So, I hope I haven't fucked up anywhere and the characters don't repeat themselves anywhere, or there are no undesirable logical mistakes, but here's how I distributed the students into classes:

(15) Class 1-1: Ayano Aishi, Seyo Akanishi, Tsuruzo Yamazaki, Shin Higaku, Ryuto Ippongo, Pippi Osu, Beruma Dinkuri, Borupen Saishiki, Otohiko Meichi, Iruka Dorufino, Hoshiko Mizudori, Tsubaki Uesugi, Horuda Puresu, Ajia Ashitomi, Homu Kurusu.

(15) Class 1-2: Chojo Tekina, Hanako Yamada, Shiromi Torayoshi, Mantaro Sashimasu, Yaku Zaishi, Juku Ren, Tokuko Kitagawa, Midori Gurin, Kokoro Momoiro, Supana Churu, Dairoku Surikizu, Kokuma Jutsu, Sumire Suzuki, Efude Nurimono, Beruma Dinkuri.

(15) Class 2-1: Osana Najimi, Shozo Kurosawa, Enpitsu Byoga, Beshi Takamine, Sakura Hagiwara, Himari Fujita, Kyuji Konagawa, Shoku Tsuburaya, Riku Soma, Maka Tansei, Mina Rai, Hokuto Furikizu, Gaku Hikitsuri, Dora Tamamoto, Hana Daidayama.

(15) Class 2-2: Kizana Sunobu, Oka Ryuto, Asu Rito, Megami Saiko, Inkyu Basu, Hazu Kashibuchi, Kenko Sukoyaka, Saki Miyu, Shima Shiya, Miyuji Shan, Hayanari Tsumeato, Rojasu Norubiru, Sukubi Dubidu, Dafuni Bureiku, Kaga Kusha.

(15) Class 3-1: Amai Odayaka, Osoro Shidesu, Raibaru Fumetsu, Mai Waifu, Geiju Tsuka, Budo Masuta, Gita Yamahato, Horo Guramu, Itachi Zametora, Hojiro Zameshiro, Uekiya Engeika, Umeji Kizuguchi, Kashiko Murasaki, Akane Toriyasu, Aoi Ryugoku.

(13) Class 3-2: Taro Yamada, Sakyu Basu, Toga Tabara, Daku Atsu, Gema Takagaki, Kokona Haruka, Kiba Kawaito, Fureddo Jonzu, Meka Nikaru, Unagi Denkashiza, Kuu Dere, Musume Ronshaku, Kuroko Kamenaga.

I've been redoing this list a lot, but I've made it roughly the way I wanted it to be. It's much nicer to the eye when all the students in the classes are distributed not like in the game (even if all the students in the game are assigned to classes in a more convenient way for the players, I still don't like it...), but in their own way...

In the end, I just want to add that thanks to this person, what inspires me and sharing their wonderful story!🩵 (@yansimstorythatiwillnotworkon ...I kind of figured out how it works, yeah).

[valleyfthdolls]

Uhhhhhhh rewritten Kokona and Kizana thoughts under the cut

Both girls are daughters of Sonoko Sakanoue, but only Kokona really grew up with her. Kizana is the daughter of Sonoko and Daichi, and they ended up splitting not long after Kizana's birth. After Kokona was born to Sonoko and Kokona's father a year or so later, Daichi and his then-girlfriend Himeko Dereguchi, later his wife, took full custody of Kizana.

Both girls' families were well-off, but they weren't really close to each other, partially due to the custody situation as Himeko and Daichi had full custody of Kizana and Kokona's father and Sonoko had full custody of Kokona.

In this rewrite, Sonoko, unlike what YandereDev retconned into canon, didn't initially know that Ryoko was guilty. As a kid, she fully believed that Ryoko's drive to endanger herself to protect others meant she was a good person being unfairly thrown under the bus, and she was embarrassed by her mentor having accused Ryoko of murder to try to be as famous as Sonoko was for solving a murder case. As an adult, though, with years to stew on the situation, she realized that she has been manipulated along with the whole court, and that Ryoko had killed all those girls.

All of that to say, Sonoko was pretty protective of Kokona. If she'd known Kokona was befriending Ayano, she would've told her to stay away, but she died before they met. She'd been told once or twice to "be wary of her", but Kokona had chalked that up to her mom being paranoid.

Kizana always felt the need to outdo Kokona, but Kokona was always a bit suspicious of Kizana's extravagance and wanted to see her as a normal person. Most of her whole "no one gets to imitate my unique style" thing is her seeking to police Kokona and feel superior to her, not because Kokona is actually imitating Kizana.

Kizana is a bully herself, which would make it easy to turn certain students such as Hosho and the gyarus against her to bully her.

I think about 50% or less of Kokona joining the drama club year-round was an actual interest in acting, and 50% or more of it was that she wanted to get closer to Kizana after their mom died. They're not at all close, and Kizana thinks the tie between their lives was severed when Sonoko died, but Kokona knows that it's not that simple and wants to use this shared trouble to bridge the gap between them.

They definitely don't see each other as sisters- Kizana sees Kokona as another version of her, and Kokona sees Kizana as that girl across the street you were always expected to try to befriend by your parents- and I don't think that changing that is Kokona's intention behind trying to reach out. I think she just figures Kizana needs someone who gets it as much as she herself does.

The fact that Kizana's canon elimination has been implied to be crushing would definitely mess up Kokona. I think that'd probably damage her sanity as well, as she'd suddenly start to question, was this my fault? Could I have stopped this if I'd tried harder? Did I cause it by trying too hard? Not as much as if they'd actually been close as siblings, but seeing someone you wanted to reach out to die is still not a fun thing to do.

Kizana goes by Kizana Dereguchi even though her legal name was first Kizana Suzuki. It's mostly because of the prestige and wealth associated with the Dereguchi name, whereas Suzuki is a very common surname.

Kizana's pale hair and eyes resemble her dad, though her hair tone (bluish) is more like her mom. Kokona's eyes resemble her mom, with her hair being more a mix between her mom and dad. Kizana's pale eyes also make her look like Himeko's biological daughter.

One Quick Note

I've changed the students' classes. This, amongst other topics are just things I changed for the sake of it. Some of these new seating arrangements help with the plot of the story, and some others are just changed for no particular reason.

I guess a more important reason would be that it reflects what age I think some of the characters would be. (Typically ranging from 16-18.) Here is the list of the students (excluding OCs in order to keep it to students the fandom will recognize, of course). Also, this doesn't affect seating arrangements:

1-1: Kyuji Konagawa, Otohiko Meichi, Seiyo Akanishi, Chojo Tekina, Efude Nuriomono, Dora Tamamoto, Juku Ren, Iruka Dorufino, Sumire Suzuki, Tsubaki Uesugi, Ryuto Ippongo, Pippi Osu, Hoshiko Mizudori, Shiromi Torayoshi

1-2: Hanako Yamada, Horuda Puresu, Hazu Kashibuchi, Kokuma Jutsu, Borupen Saishiki, Shima Shiya, Beruma Dinkuri, Yaku Zaishi, Mantaro Sashimasu, Himari Fujita, Mai Waifu, Kokoro Momoiro

2-1: Ayano Aishi, Osana Najimi, Kuu Dere, Raibaru Fumetsu, Shozo Kurosawa, Kokona Haruka, Enpitsu Byoga, Beshi Takamine, Sukubi Dubidu, Homu Kurusu, Midori Gurin, Gaku Hikitsuri, Hayanari Tsumeato, Musume Ronshaku, Hana Daidaiyama

2-2: Asu Rito, Megami Saikou, Ajia Ashitomi, Saki Miyu, Riku Soma, Shin Higaku, Maka Tansei, Miyuji Shan, Rojasu Norubiru, Dafuni Bureiku, Hojiro Zameshiro, Uekiya Engeika, Umeji Kizuguchi, Akane Toriyasu

3-1: Oka Ruto, Osoro Shidesu, Sakyu Basu, Inkyu Basu, Kenko Sukayaka, Tsuruzo Yamazaki, Tokuko Kitagawa, Supana Churu, Gita Yamahato, Sho Kunin, Mina Rai, Horo Guramu, Unagi Denkashiza, Hokuto Furukizu, Dairoku Surikizu, Kashiko Murasaki, Aoi Ryugoku

3-2: Taro Yamada, Amai Odayaka, Kizana Sunobu, Toga Tabara, Shoku Tsubaraya, Daku Atsu, Geiju Tsuka, Kiba Kawaito, Budo Masuta, Furredo Jonzu, Kaga Kusha, Meka Nikaru, Itachi Zametora, Sakura Hagiwara, Gema Taku, Kuroko Kamenaga

Also, since I love adding pictures, please enjoy these uniform redesign drafts. I personally think it doesn't fit Yandere Simulator's current time, but I digress. Feedback is appreciated, as per usual.

Kimi ni Koisuru Satsujinki (Manga)

Created by: Akiyama enma

Genre: Psychological/Drama/Romance

Hello everyone! I know that this one is kind of getting popular because of the reblogs and I sort of ended up spilling the beans about a future recommendation I had (whoops), so even though I have a lot of older recommendations, I'll just write this one first. This story gets dark very quickly and has an air of mystery over the main female character, considering how many people are coming after her. I can also sense the downfall of our main guy is coming soon too, so that's exciting to see. Currently as of writing this, there are 17 chapters you can read.

The story is about a boy named Suzuki, a guy who has attempted to change his image to try to fit in but is having a hard time connecting with others. He quickly forms a bond with a pretty girl named Kokona and Kokona asks him to pretend to be her boyfriend to scare off a stalker that has been following her. Suzuki accepts and the two go to a barbeque together with friends while the two pretend to date. Suzuki gets bullied by one of his "friends" at the barbeque and not soon after, the stalker comes in to stab his friend. The stalker ends up grabbing Kokona and in an attempt to save her, Suzuki ends up stabbing the stalker instead. The story of Suzuki's attack spreads through the media quickly, causing Suzuki to stay at home, however, Kokona ends up coming to his house to thank him for what he's done. Suzuki attempts to break off their relationship when another stalker comes to attack both of them. The stalker attempts to kill Kokona before Suzuki ends up bludgeoning him in the head, killing him almost instantly. Suzuki attempts to end his life because of the two deaths he caused, but Kokona stops him and convinces him that the two should live together.

The two bring the body of the stalker to the woods to bury him, however, it turns out he's still alive and Suzuki ends up killing him for good with a shovel before burying him for good. After the two finish, Suzuki and Kokona end up going to an amusement park together to get their minds off of everything, and although Suzuki starts to panic believing that someone will recognize him, Kokona tries to calm him down. At the amusement park, they meet another man named Kisaragi, who outs Suzuki and tries to get Kokona to be his lover after she ditched him. Suzuki is able to stop Kisaragi and Suzuki and Kokona end up having fun at the park before settling in at the hotel. Quickly though, things get worse as Kisaragi ends up finding Kokona's room, and after Kokona refuses Kisaragi's advancement, things get even worse as Kisaragi ends up drugging her. Kisaragi almost rapes Kokona and reveals that he's a serial killer that ended up getting rid of a lot of the guys that Kokona talked to, however, Suzuki is able to find the two before things turn even worse. The two have a fight and Suzuki ends up slitting Kisaragi's throat, killing him for good. The two end up running away together, and before they go, Suzuki stops by a girl named Riko's place to get a car. Riko sees a suspicious look at Kokona's place before running off.

As you can see, the story dials up to 11 very quickly, and while reading the story, it's very clear that the author is building up to who Kokona really is. For one, many of the stalkers seem to have a vengeful vendetta against her, because of some sort of betrayal, and Kisaragi even hints at this, asking "Isn't it strange that Kokona chose someone as plain as you?" It's hinted that Kokona seems to have "used" many of these guys (the second stalker angrily declares that "He did everything for her") and they all similarly seem to either want to take her as their own or to have them both die in a murder-suicide. For whatever reason, Kokona has done something to these guys to cause them to act obsessive and stalkerish, breaking them to the point of wanting to murder either her or the people around her. Kokona acts mostly as a victim in these situations, and while she has declarations of "love", she often seems to have done something that set them off (for instance, with Kisaragi, he was angry that she ditched him for tickets that he had bought). She never mentions why these guys might be stalking her and she attempts to keep Suzuki alive, either to make her into the next stalker or to use to protect herself from the other stalkers she created. The most recent chapter shows Kokona's darker side, smiling at Riko before the two head off.

In Suzuki's case, the story makes it very clear that he doesn't fit in with others and is often the target of bullying from other people. He seems to be mostly a loner, being too awkward to talk to girls normally or stand up for himself. In the event of the second stalker, when he attempts to kill himself, he notes that he isn't someone of note and that most people would forget him and that all he's done is cause problems. To me, it seems obvious that Kokona is manipulating him and changing him to be someone else, as compared to the start of the manga, he is more broken than he was before and has killed at least two people. In fact, after killing Kisiragi, he rationalizes that Kokona will likely keep being attacked and that killing another person is no longer a big deal after he already killed someone. He ends up dedicating his life to protecting her and the two even try to run away together in the end. Considering that many of the stalkers seem to have a similar personality/backstory, its very likely that Kokona is somehow targeting these kinds of guys and manipulating them into becoming stalkers.

In terms of yandere, there are currently three of them, and possibly more depending on how the story continues. The first seems to be simply a stalker that tries to drag Kokona away and attempts to kill the others that are close to her, while the second seems to have more of a vendetta against her, but still believing that Kokona should be siding with him and ends up almost killing her and Suzuki in the process. The final one, Kisaragi is a serial killer and while we see more of his backstory than the other two, we can see that he also seems obsessed with her, wanting her to be with him and almost raping her in the process. All of them seem to be romantically interested in her while also still having some sort of vendetta because of something that she's done in the past. Currently, it seems obvious that all of these are yanderes considering their obsession with Kokona and what they're willing to go through to be with her. I honestly think that Suzuki is slowly headed there as well, as he's obviously very interested in Kokona and he's becoming more and more protective over her different stalkers threaten her life.

Regardless of what happens in the story, I hope that this manga series will continue giving us yanderes for us to read.

Chapter 6 of When the Lions Were Late is up!

[Read from the start]

[Link to Chapter 6]

I’ve put some “Fighter Profiles” and “Worker Profiles” under the cut for this post since I introduced quite a few ocs in this chapter (I have a lot of them for this story, and juggling all of them has been a bit of a challenge, but I hope you enjoy!)

CHARACTERS IN ORDER OF APPEARANCE

FIGHTER PROFILE: Suzuki Aiko (17)

Power: XXX

Speed: XX

Technique: XXXX

Range: XXX

A student at the Kokodan institute, Aiko is a levelheaded, somewhat sardonic teenager with a bit of a self-conscious streak that she’s working on overcoming. She loves animals and used to volunteer at zoos in the Before Times, as well as help her aunt take care of her flock of chickens.

FIGHTER PROFILE: Ojiro Takeshi (18)

Power: XXXX

Speed: XX

Technique: X

Range: XXX

A student at the Kokodan, Takeshi is a boisterous, bold young man with plenty of positivity to share with his friends. Confident and fun-loving, he can be a bit much for some people, but his friendship with the much quieter Masaru is going ten years strong. Takeshi has an interest in fashion and takes personal grooming very seriously.

FIGHTER PROFILE: Gyamfi Masaru (17)

Power: XXXX

Speed: XX

Technique: XXX

Range: XXX

A student at the Kokodan, Masaru is a gentle, sensitive soul who enjoys the quiet beauty of the world around him. Though he comes across as rather withdrawn, in reality he’s simply a bit shy around new people and rather soft spoken, meaning he tends to only speak when he feels its important. He has a fantastic singing voice.

WORKER PROFILE: Hayashi Haru (15)

Woodworking Skill: XXXXX

Competitiveness: XXXX

Stamina: XXX

A member of Hirosuo High’s crafting club, Haru specializes in woodworking and sculpture, though carving tools and devices for the Kingdom of Science with stone knives presents a bit of a learning curve. A cheerful, energetic personality, Haru is fiercely loyal to their friends. They can be surprisingly competitive when they’re presented with a new challenge.

WORKER PROFILE: Fujimoto Kokona (16)

Ceramics Skill: XXXXX

Sign Language Skill: XXXXX

Relaxing Skill: XX

A member of Hirosuo High’s crafting club, Kokona is most at home when working with clay and pottery. Graceful and elegant in appearance, Kokona is often mistaken for stoic and uptight, though her entire demeanor relaxes when she’s at the potter’s wheel. Kokona was homeschooled up until the last year of middle school, and struggled a bit with making friends in public school.
