Dating: Kureshima Mitsuzane, Kureshima Takatora

Warnings: Gaim spoilers, Micchy’s VERY questionable behavior...I love these bois more than I love myslef okay???? Don’t judge me, Micchy is also one of my first KR crushes lol.

Kureshima Mitzusane

Micchy is such a sweet boi okay?? Dating him is a dream. Depending on whether or not you know his background, it doesn’t change much other than where you meet him after school. If you know who he really is, you tend to wait for him at the school gates where he perks up and runs to you with a brisk step, ignoring the stares he gets and the first thing he grabs is your hands. “I’m back, thank you for waiting for me.” he would say, like he’s coming home to you. If you don’t know who he is, you tend to meet him at the Team Gaim hideout and similarly, he perks up way more here. The first thing he grabs when he sees you is…well…you! He brings you into a sweet and saccharine hug that is tight and his cheeks are flushed that he’s showing this to the people around you (Kouta and Mai are fist-bumping and the rest are giggling) but he whispers to you that he’s so glad to see you!!!!

Micchy is also a pretty good cook, and tends to make his own lunches and for you! He brings like these decorated couple bentos to the Gaim hideout for you and him and others pout and whine that they can’t get his cooking but he has extra food for them. You just get the cute and best ones! Sure, he has fine dining experience but Micchy adores more so lowkey dishes that aren’t full of like the best of the best but like…shit that just fucking tastes good. It’s why you often catch him munching on chips or something because he rarely has them back home in his manor. You tend to carry around new whack ass flavors for the two of you to try together! It almost becomes a game for you two, to find new things you both can try and how to react to them lol. Secretly loves it when you feed him even though he’s blushing and dying.

This isn’t me projecting (it is) but Micchy looks so good in earrings!!!!!! He has his ears pierced and he tends to wear like simple studs but if you have other earrings for him to try out, he’s happy to do so! He actually has a collection of stuff you buy for him, kept locked away in a little jewelry box and sorts them out daily. Shopping trips together always end up going to like some sort of artsy store with handmade earrings and Micchy picking out matching things for the two of you to wear! He’s also kind of obsessed with matching couples things. His fave pair are these grape shaped studs (lol) that you got for him for his birthday! Micchy never fucking takes them off and they’re his most prized possession. You will pry these damn earrings off of his COLD DEAD BODY-

Oh dude Team Gaim is your family now. Dude they have to give Micchy the "talk" and Kouta is just right there sitting down with Micchy, slightly shaking his shoulders and saying: “Treat them right, okay, Micchy? Like, we all trust you but here’s the ins-and-outs of dating. You need to do this and not that-” Listen Kouta sees you as his baby sibling now, he’s going to ask every day if you two are treating each other right. Mai is like your personal hype girl because whenever you and Micchy share like a kiss in front of the others she’s like “Kyaaa~!” and hides her eyes but peeks through her fingers but also she helps you get ready for dates! The entire team has your back now and are those kinds of friends that are like: “GOOD LUCK GETTING LAID TONIGHT!!!” or “YEAAAH YOU GET ‘EM!!!” and are just over the top embarrassing siblings. Micchy highkey keeps dates away from them for a reason because you two will end up a blushing mess. But blushing Micchy is a sight lemme tell ya-

Public affection!!!!!!! He isn’t really shy about it since he loves you ooooh so much but it’s more along the lines of he’s reserved. He does get all blushy whenever you do public affection towards one another but he’s happy to do it! He has this cute n giddy lil smile to him that makes him eager for more! He’ll lean into each and every kiss you give him and it’s so cute?? Like a puppy or cat just trying to never let you stop petting them. He also demands holding hands whenever he goes, fingers laced together. He will also uh, keep you a secret from his brother and family…and in general, he won’t tell Takatora shit so….yeah. He’s very protective of you if Takatora is in the picture. Also you need to give him kisses at timely intervals. He’s better at hiding his poutiness than say like…Kouta but he’s much more direct with it via texts. Sending you little emojis and kaomojis, asking when he’ll see you again.

Speaking of! Micchy is in general, protective of you. Not just because you two are Riders but because of…well…his darker traits. I mean we all saw how he acts. He has half considered taking your belt away in order to keep you out of this entire fight but listen, you are going to fight with him until the fucking end. In the everyday scenario, Micchy tends to put himself between you and whatever aggressor you have. You can take care of yourself thank you very much. It’s similar in battle, really. It’s very obvious that Micchy is looking out for you. He trusts your skills in battle, don’t get me wrong, but Micchy simply wants to be there for you. He has his weapon in hand at all moments, you in the corner of his eye, and shoots down any and all opposition that attempts to attack you. He’s scared of losing you to this invasion, yes, but perhaps even more so because…he had something to do with it. The sins of his brother are his own, in a way. But Micchy sends out praise during your fights together, lil quips to ensure you keep going.

Actually, arguments are going to become a problem between the two of you. Especially if Micchy goes downhill. He’s desperate to keep you safe and this will turn into a screaming match or even a fight between ideals with possible belts in play. Normally, Micchy will need a moment to himself to plot things out and come to you to talk things out. Because he’s a thinker most of all and most of his issues are kept in his head. Half of the time he doesn’t want to bother you with things he’s thinking. But if he does have a problem, he will let you know after thinking it over and how to best approach a situation. Normally he wants to come to the best conclusion with you, looking for a solution. But like this? With his head thinking of humanity and betraying you…it’s going to be difficult. There will be tears shed, hoarse throats and things left unsaid. It’s an almost break-up at this point. You can see that it took a lot of guts for Micchy to do this, and he doesn’t mean to hurt you and but…it’s what he decided. He offers his hand to you, to join him and whether or not you take that hand is up to you…

Back to cute stuff, Micchy enjoys cuddles in all forms! He has to have you in his arms whenever you two are together. He has his arm wrapped around you in some sort of manner, around your waist so he can pull you into a quick hug but hand holding is his fave! Micchy’s fave dates are lowkey ones and sure he may have like loads of money to gift you shit, his prime forms of affection are “words of affirmation” and “time spent together”. Micchy loves private dates and sure he may take you out to eat but most of the time he asks you to pick an idea for a date. Sure he has lived in Takatora’s shadow but is also free to do his own thing, but Micchy loves the lil look in your eyes whenever you get passionate about something. If you ask him to pick a date, Micchy will want to do something chill. Maybe a walk in the park or an arcade romp together if he’s feeling frisky. Study dates can also be a thing if you two make it possible! Kisses are his reward please and thanks!

Slow dances between you two are…well…something Micchy secretly adores. Sure he dances extra hard whenever you watch Team Gaim dance and has a kiss from you before each and every session! It’s like a ��break a leg” but in the form of a kiss. Those are hyped up and full of excitement but here? With you in his arms, dancing to a slow rhythm of a slower song, Micchy can let himself float and relax. He sways with you to a beat only you two know and he can let all of his worries disappear. You’re here with him, close to him. You’re not going to leave and he won’t let you leave. It’s a music to his entire soul, having you against him like this. You’ll do like lil twirls every now and then and maybe Micchy will dip you or you dip him but…just let him have this for a while alright?

Loving Micchy is like a soured wine. You think it’ll taste good but it’s sour to your tongue but finishes off smoothly and it gets the job done right of getting you drunk. Micchy…doesn’t believe he deserves forgiveness after what he has done - done to hurt his friends and you especially. So there is a good chance you two have separated by this point. He just…fades. He doesn’t want to bother you with him and his sorrows anymore, to atone for these sins is something he must bear all alone. But you need to remind him that he isn’t alone. He may grieve alone, atone alone, but you want to be there for him. He’ll cry, sob and keep this uncomfy distance between you two. It’s up to you if you want to forgive him or not, or even stay by his side because he knows he doesn’t deserve you. But even then, it doesn’t hurt to still be by his side. He’s still human, he makes mistakes, and most of all…Micchy is Micchy. It’s going to be a healing process for the two of you but Micchy still loves you, that’s why he had to let you go…

Kureshima Takatora

It’s going to take a loooong ass time before Takatora even dates someone, let alone has feelings! He falls in love slowly and he has so many things to do that romance really isn’t in the forefront of his mind. So if anything, it’s this blurred line between friendship and romance and even Takatora doesn’t notice that he loves you until it’s either too late or Ryouma or Sid points it out. That’s when it clicks to him. It’s those moments when he stays up late just to talk to you, chuckling into the phone or smiling softly through texts. Or just when he’s looking forward to his super rare off-days to be with you and how his eyes tend to wander and wonder to your lips and your hands. It’s when he notices little things about you and buys you lunch or you bring him lunch at the building. It’s the smiles and butterflies you give him or the twinkle in your eyes when you talk about something you like - and it hits Takatora all at once.

So really, dating Takatora is going to be fraught with difficulty. He’s an exceptionally busy man after all so dates will be very sparse. He will always make time to text you “Good morning.” and “Good night.” he doesn’t send emojis and tends to be rather formal all things considered. But he also tends to send you texts with updates that are short and sweet, or sometimes photos (badly taken lol) of things that remind him of you. Sometimes it’s just the skyline of Zawame City on a particularly sunny day and you may be confused by Takatora. Takatora will just probably say something corny without realizing it (it took him a long time to figure out what to say) “It reminded me of you, bright and beautiful.” or “We should go on a picnic the next time I am off.” just simple random thoughts that flow through his mind.

Speaking of off-days, those are EXTREMELY rare but there is nothing that is going to get between him and you. Sure he has emergencies but he is always trying to find a way to make up the dates. It’s no secret that he tends to take you to a fancy dinner every now and then and picks you up in his own personal car, dressed in his best suit and maybe a flower/bouquet for you (he’s traditional) and kisses your hand reverently when you come to greet him. Okay sure, you may get some looks but like…Takatora doesn’t fucking care. Let the rumors fly, let the paparazzi come after you (if they try, Takatora will just shut them the fuck up), and let them try to separate you. You’re a power couple. Though at first, Takatora will honestly try to keep the relationship on the down-low. It’s not like trying to keep you a secret (half of the staff are aware already and ship it anyway) but more so love happens. Plus, why the fuck are people trying to pry into your personal relationships anyway? It’s dumb and stupid. So Takatora will take things in stride and of course, protect you from the media whenever possible.

If you’re a Rider like he is, Takatora personally takes time out of his day to train with you. It’s a date in a way, sparring and all (you’re treated to his gorgeous visage after all and this is an easy way to lead to makeout sessions uwu) and patching each other up afterwards, sharing water bottles and grabbing bites to eat (feeding each other). But Takatora trusts you to watch his back and for him to watch yours. It’s a synchronized dance that only the two of you know and you don’t even need to communicate verbally to do so. But seeing as Takatora has a shield on him, he tends to toss it towards you more often than not whenever you’re in a pinch. It’s not his weapon, not yours, but ours. He tends to also dive in to take hits for you, hiding you behind his shield more often than not. You do the same to him and the two of you cover each other’s weaknesses oh so perfectly. It’s practised ease and almost psychic how the two of you can mold together so well.

As the traditional man that he is, Takatora tends to keep an arm around your waist or a hand against the small of your back. As such, public affection is a warm sensation that really is kept at a minimum. Though Takatora can’t help but let his eyes dart towards your form every now and then. It’s not so much kisses (other than the occasional pecks in the hallways or his office) but more so existing in the same space together. It’s sort of first nature for him, to place his hand at the small of her back and be a support for you because he’s a support to the city and he wants to help you as well. But if you do the same to him he has this slump to his shoulders, these wrinkles that disappear and he leans into your touch just slightly. It’s tiny little things for Takatora. That being said, you gotta initiate most of the public affection if you want lol. You have to be his support.

Dates are mostly when Takatora needs to leave his mansion. Sure he doesn’t mind staying in but more often than not, he wants to spend time outside with you or some space with you. It’s probably sometimes at your place because there are not many places where Takatora can lower his guard. Your home smells like you, has you in it, and Takatora tends to spend nights there whenever he can. Other than that, dates will consist of hand-holding and long walks in the park, or going to a very quiet cafe and hiding in the most hidden booth. If you two do go to a fancy dinner date, Takatora ensures complete and total privacy for the two of you. But more often than not, dates are your home or out somewhere in nature. He loves going to museums and botanical gardens the most, wanting to preserve human life and its memory as much as possible. Also because he just likes flowers lol.

Takatora’s love language is time spent together, gift giving, and touch no matter how small it is. What his touch and kisses convey are better than his words or texts without tone. Of course he takes his time spent with you seriously but gift giving is a strange sort of thing. You could think that he’s buying your affections but it’s the little gifts that are full of sentiment that you appreciate. Sometimes he thinks about buying you the most expensive jewelry that he knows will compliment you but he will take a picture and ask if you want it (you decline most of the time) but the gifts are mostly take out foods from places you both like and are balanced healthy meals. He neglects to eat sometimes himself and he appreciates it whenever you show up on his lunch break with actual food for him to eat (or together) and he tends to eat out more often than not. So his gifts are things that are practical like a mug or a warm jacket but more often than not it’s food.

Takatora’s bed is always so empty and expansive, the weight of the world threatening to overtake him and swallow him into the deep dark abyss. It’s why he can never sleep, or like…doesn’t fucking sleep. He can only really sleep whenever he drinks a little or when he’s straight up dead. Because everything haunts him. His sins, his future, you…what would happen if…no, he doesn’t want to think about it. But he does. He thinks of what-ifs and the dreaded ends and worst-case scenarios so you need to quiet him. It’s why he can only sleep whenever you’re by his side and not in his mansion home but in your bed. It brings him comfort, lulls him to sleep because it’s you. Let him be the little spoon, let him relax, let him just be Takatora - not Kureshima Takatora, not Kamen Rider Zangetsu. Let him listen to your heart and let it lull him to a dreamless slumber. You’ll wake up in the reverse position sometimes, you in his arms and he kisses you awake because he’s an early riser but the moments when you wake up with him in your arms and kiss him awake…or just watch him be at peace…are the best moments.

Arguments are going to be tough. It’s a calm experience and Takatora tends to keep to himself most of the time. He’s honest so he’ll tell you what’s wrong but he tends to let it…simmer and bubble within him. He’s worried he’ll cause some distress to you in any sort of aspect. The arguments are mostly about him trying to be better or to let you carry his burden too! He cannot do this alone. It’s going to make him crumble one day. They end with a mutual agreement and he makes good on these, to be better for you. It’s going to be a slow process but he’s doing his best.

Oh, loving Takatora is loving an aged and perfectly fermented wine. It gets you fucked up, but it feels so fucking good drinking it. Takatora’s a careful lover and one that wants to go steady once marriage is on the table. Of course, he tends to wait a long time before it can occur. He’s…scared, to jump these lines. But he’s working on redemption. He’s working on bettering himself, bettering this city you both call home. He’s recovering from wounds and scars that litter his entire form and you’re going to grow with him and heal with him. You two are flowers that bloom out of concrete, strong and powerful and nothing is going to stop either of you. You still fight together, do everything together…but Takatora has this weight lifted off of him now. He smiles more, he’s more affectionate, he eventually asks if you want to move into his home or him into yours. He wants to be with you, no matter what. You are his wine at the end of a long and hard day…someone to come home to and relax with.

Riders in Kombat - Fruit vs. Thunder 2 - MK X Kamen Rider

Earth’s Kamen Riders were all leading their respective lives as they saw fit after a year of fighting enemies on a weekly or daily basis, when strange creatures began appearing and attacking indiscriminately.

or Mortal Kombat karakters fight Kamen Riders.

A/N: A self-indulgent idea that sprung from the question of “Who wins in a fight, Raiden, god of Thunder or Kamen Rider Gaim?”

Special shoutout to @dangerouscommiesubversive for answering some anons who asked about Mortal Kombat vs Kamen Rider related questions (its my cousin, the other user of this blog).

A/N: This chapter is also uploaded to honor the 10th anniversary of Kamen Rider Gaim.

FFN I Ao3

--------

"Kouta-san," Micchy greeted.

"Aquarius boy." Oren greeted as well. "Good thing you're here, Monsieur Walnut and my boy were captured by some creepy old man."

"Zack and Hideyasu were?"

"Along with my older brother," Micchy stated somberly. "They stayed behind to get the people evacuated with the help of other Kamen Riders."

"How could I forget my Melon prince?! They also took my Melon prince."

"I'm afraid they're trying to reach for the forbidden fruit."

"Again?"

"No, this is unlike the Helheim forest invasion, this is different," Kouta shook his head. "Just before Takatora and the others were captured, I heard the man say that they'd like to study the fruits that allowed us to transform."

"I had gleaned on that," Oren nodded. "That's why you're here isn't it?"

"That and to give you this."

Kouta handed a few Helheim fruits to Micchy and Oren, all of which turned into lockseeds for them to use, high-ranking ones at that.

"Vile creature!" Thunder boomed as lightning struck the pavement before the armored Riders. "You dare taint Earthrealm with vile fruits?! That is unforgivable!"

"And what? Just leave them unable to defend themselves from your incursion?!" Koura demanded. "I don't know if you noticed but this isn't your Earthrealm or whatever."

"Aquarius Boy, you can understand English?" Oren raised an eyebrow.

"He's speaking in English?" Kouta turned to the Durian Rider. "All I hear is Japanese."

"Kouta-san, you might have gained the ability to understand any language after everything." Micchy suggested.

"That makes sense," Oren nodded.

"I see you have corrupted those Earthrealmers, I have no choice but to send you to the Netherrealm."

"Henshin!"

"Kiwami Arms!"

"Budou Arms!"

"King Durian Arms!"

All three Riders were able to transform before the lightning that was summoned by the newcomer hit them. As the smoke dissipated, Kouta had a melon-themed shield in front while Oren and Micchy wore armor that shared similarities to that of Kouta's.

"I see there's no hope for the two of you."

"Micchy, Old man, let's do this!"

"Right!"

Bravo and Ryugen surrounded Raiden on two different sides as Gaim stared at the thunder god head-on. A few moments of staring at the man with lightning powers ensued before he charged at the silver-armored man with his staff in hand.

Gaim parried the strike with his saber as an orange-themed sword materialized in his hand and attempted to slash the thunder god with it.

Ryugen pulled the lever on his gun and shot multiple enlarged grapes at his flying opponent, all of which were dodged gracefully in the air.

Bravo followed up the younger man's attack, jumped into the air, and attempted to slash the self-proclaimed thunder god with both of his swords.

Raiden expertly parried the attack and delivered an attack himself, slamming Oren to a nearby car and denting it.

"Oren-san!"

Micchy rushed to the older man's aid, who was groaning in pain.

"Don't worry about me, boy, you need to defeat that man." Oren managed to state.

"No, Micchy, you guard the old man, I will deal with this thunder god person," Kouta ordered. "We can't have the both of you get captured."

"Captured?" Raiden frowned.

"Yosh, from now on, this is my stage!" Kouta declared. "You're going down."

"Let's see you try, vile creature!"

Gaim started by materializing a red mechanical bow that he immediately fired at the thunder god.

Raiden was momentarily stunned at the new weapon the creature materialized that he was hit by the incoming arrow that the peculiar bow summoned. He shook his head as he dodged the subsequent attacks from the said bow and charged at his opponent, this time intending to destroy his opponent.

Raiden fired a bolt of lightning, which was dodged by his enemy, and teleported behind the armored warrior and threw him in the air.

The thunder god punched Kouta's gut and sent him hurtling upwards before he was slammed back down to the ground via the strike Raiden did with the staff.

Kouta immediately stood up and flipped backwards and dodged the coming staff that Raiden threw at him. He materialized a grape-themed gun and fired multiple grapes at the flying opponent, jumped towards the god and slashed him with a banana-themed spear.

As soon as the thunder god was slashed, Gaim immediately grabbed hold of his opponent's collar and faced him to the incoming grape-themed bullets that he had fired earlier before he slammed Raiden to the street.

Raiden teleported behind Kouta and grabbed his opponent by the neck and electrocuted him before throwing the armored warrior upwards.

Kouta managed to get his bearings and materialized a pair of Walnut-themed boxing gloves before they glowed fiery yellow and fired the spikes on his gloves towards his enemy. The gloves caught on fire which Gaim used to punch the thunder god right in the chest, slamming him to a nearby truck.

Raiden teleported away from Gaim and sent a couple of electric balls, which were blocked by a watermelon-themed shield. Kouta knelt and fired the gun that was attached to the shield.

Raiden blocked all the bullets by spinning his staff in front of him; however, this was the distraction Kouta needed.

Gaim jumped in the air and flicked the mini sword on his belt like he had done many times before.

"Kiwami Squash!"

Gaim just kicked Raiden in the chest, sent him flying towards the wall of a crumbling building, and brought the entire building down on him.

Kouta looked towards his fellow Armored Riders.

"Do you know where they're being held?" Kouta undid his transformation before approaching his allies.

"Sadly, no." Oren shook his head.

"I tried following them, but the presence of those sharp-teethed people hindered me," Micchy sighed. "Their bones are their weapons and they can cut through anything, I wanted to risk it, but Oren-san prevented me."

"You're saying, this is like when the Helheim forest was invading Earth?" Oren diverted the topic.

"Notice those yellow lines?"

"Yellow lines?"

"You can't see them?" Kouta pointed at a nearby intact building.

"Must be another one of your abilities, Kouta-san."

"Maybe," Kouta frowned. "We don't have a clue where they're being held and from the looks of things, the longer they're under enemy hands, they have less chances of surviving."

"Kouta-san!" Someone yelled from the air.

"Ghost?" Kouta questioned as a man in white armor landed beside him. "What are you doing here, Takeru?"

"I encountered Haruto-san after I made eye contact with one of those sharp-teethed people. "From the memories I managed to glance on, I saw three people who are connected to you in their memories."

"That must be Takatora, Zack, and Hideyasu!" Kouta exclaimed. "Did you see where they took them?"

"Yeah," Takeru nodded. "Haruto-san is already at the entrance waiting for us." He explained. "It's a portal to Himeji castle in Osaka."

Kouta was in a dilemma. On one hand, he didn't want to leave both Oren and Micchy in the open, vulnerable to the enemies.

On the other hand, he wanted to rescue Takatora, Zack, and Hideyasu as fast as possible. Who knows what that madman was going to do with them, especially when he had heard that old man order one of these monster-like men to capture the armored riders earlier.

"Kami-sama."

"Tomari." Kouta acknowledged.

"Go," The police officer beckoned for the Rider-turned-god to proceed. "Takeru has already informed me. Date and Gotou were tasked to gather Kisaragi and his club mates,"

"They'll be safe with Tomari-san, Kouta-san." Takeru assured.

"What are you waiting for, Aquarius boy?! Go already!"

"We'll be fine, Kouta-san," Micchy assured his friend. "If anything else, I can still fight and defend ourselves."

"If you're sure," Kouta nodded. "Takeru, let's go."

Both Gaim and Ghost rose to the air and flew towards their destination.

"And he can just transform into Gaim immediately." Tomari shook his head. "Takeru forgot to undo his transformation too; Emu's not going to like that."

"Considering circumstances, I think that gamer doctor's going to have to let this slide." Oren offered.

"You're right." Tomari nodded. "Kureshima, help Alfonzo at the back of the car."

---------

As soon as the people in the general area had left, Raiden got up, shrugging away the debris that had fallen on him earlier.

Raiden had been right, this was another situation similar to when Dark Kahn happened. The one he had been fighting earlier was one of those urban legend heroes called Kamen Riders. It was unfortunate that Takeda, alongside everyone he knew on Earthrealm had disappeared.

They mentioned about his friends being captured.

"This bears investigating."

Note

kouta, micchy, and mai, anything of your choice! i'd prefer it not being tooth rotting fluff, though.

interesting ship you've got there, anon. i'm not sure if this could please you, since gaim would give you enough angst as is, but have some domestic arguments. i hope you don't mind that this is post-canon!

Usually, Mitsuzane enjoys waking up to a peaceful house on weekends. Today, it doesn’t seem to be the case.

He’d woken up late, as is normal for weekends — because Kouta and Mai had insisted that he get some kind of rest, and the weekdays at Yggdrasill couldn’t permit such — but to the sound of clamor and unrest. Sure, it hadn’t been anything as bad as the aggravated phone calls that occurred between Nii-san and Ryoma-san some days, or the impassioned yet futile arguments he’d have with Mai during darker times, but any kind of raised volume sends a little shiver down his spine, even in adulthood.

Thankfully, upon approaching the closed door of their joint bedroom, the argument doesn’t seem to be one of genuine concern, and rather one of fear for something trivial.

“I’m telling you, Mai, someone’s got to take care of the stupid little thing, and I’m not going to!”

“Well, I’m not going to, either!”

“Great! So we’re stuck!”

“Why don’t you be a big boy and just squish it? You’re a Rider, you’ve taken care of rogue Inves before. And trust me, I’ll freeze over Helheim before you even think of waking up Micchy.”

A mention of name, Ryoma-san had once said, is but an invitation to barge into a conversation even if the mentioned is unwanted. Sure, the bastard had uttered a lot of evil, and taken most of it to his grave, but Mitsuzane finds himself opening the door to let himself into the living room regardless.

“Wake me up for what?”

Kouta and Mai's eyes fling towards him, seemingly as if they'd set off a curse of the greatest magnitude, before Mai follows up with giving Kouta's head a loud smack.

“See what you’ve done? You woke him up! Oh, Micchy, I’m so sorry, you should get back to sleep.”

“It’s not that big of a deal, Mai. You guys needed me for something?”

Kouta directs his attention towards the corner opposite the one he’s holed himself into with Mai, the arm that's not rubbing his head quivering alongside the unadulterated fear carried by his face.

“Spider.”

Mitsuzane drags his eyes alongside Kouta’s outstretched arm, then beyond it towards the hardwood floor on the corner. Sure enough, as Kouta had stated, a spider stands inertly on the floor, seeming to do no catastrophic harm.

Weirdly, Mitsuzane had figured that Kouta had grown into a man without fear after everything he’s been through, especially to a vessel containing life. But as with most things he’d thought of as a sixteen year old, he’d been wrong. To Kouta and Mai, while he walks over to the spider and crouches, he raises his eyebrows in confusion over their fear. To the spider, he simply waves.

“Hi there.”

Kouta shrieks once more, this time in discontentment.

“You’re talking to it?! Get it out of here!”

In response, Mitsuzane simply glares at Kouta before shrugging his shoulders at the spider. He’d started a conversation simply to be polite, even if he figures the probabilities of the spider understanding the Japanese language is abysmally low, but he figures he can drag it out, just to get on Kouta’s nerves for waking him up.

“You’ll have to excuse Kouta, he’s a little scared of your kind. You’d think he’d love you without being scared, given that both he and Mai are gods, but let’s not get into that. I’m here to take you somewhere safer.”

Nii-san’s voice enters his head when he glances at the sun, from the one time a spider had graced their house with his presence — something about making sure the spider could actually survive the conditions outside before setting it off into the world. The spider crawling onto his cupped hands, however, seems like every other spider he’s ever seen.

Well, shit. He’s no spider expert. But who is he if he doesn’t make use of the Man and Woman of the Beginning he calls his partners?

“Hey, Mai, is this spider native to around here?”

“Yeah, it is. Why does that matter, though?”

The spider roams around in the general vicinity of his palms with no worries while Mitsuzane walks towards and opens the main door of the house, carrying said carefree mannerisms as he places his hands down for the spider to seize the day in the great outdoors.

“There you go. See you around.”

The door slams shut in between the spider scurrying off and himself, and he dusts his hands as he heads to the bathroom. In the meantime, Kouta and Mai slowly step out of their corner, and it's now that Mitsuzane decides that putting them to work as a little bit of gratitude could get this weekend back on the right path.

Step one to doing that would involve smiling sweetly, just a tad bit too saccharine, to warn them.

“You guys better make me a good breakfast if you woke me up for that.”
