A Tie that Binds Us

Characters: Maia Hasegawa & Jyuria Hoshizumi

Summary: The first encounter of Maia and Ria was a bloody one. Like a story of a knight saving a maiden in distress, but Maia was not the first to reach a hand to her, it was none other than a demon.

Word count: 1.1k

A/N: The game story never mentioned anything about how the pact is made between a human and a demon, so I'm just making shit up <3 Also I'm briefly talking about her stigma here.

Her gaze fixed on the rim of her glass. A lipstick stained glass. Her head lay down on the table as the tip of her finger danced over the top of it. Has the alcohol got through her head already? Not likely. I don’t know. Maybe Mickey’s new stuff was stronger than usual.

“Have you… have you ever thought about what would happen if we never met?”

Maia, who had not said anything, stayed silent still. It must be a question that’s been on Ria’s mind for some time, but she understood where it might have come from.

🖤

“Ma’am? Can you hear me?”

The blaring sound of police sirens could be heard in the distance, even their spinning blue and red lights managed to enter through Ria’s window. It felt like some pathetic opening from a movie about a fucked up teenager who got caught by the FBI. Well, it’s not so far off from the truth anyway.

She used to pray for this to happen. For the authorities to raid the place and get their grubby hands on the entire establishment. All the dirty secrets this place holds; all the sickening deeds that’s brewing in this hellhole. Ria wanted them to discover everything and put an end to all of this.

But for now, not even her knees are strong enough to help her stand.

So loud… They’re all so loud…

Not the sirens, not the foot stomp of people clearing the building, not the shrieks of prostitutes having guns being pointed at them.

Ba dum… Ba dum… Ba dump…

It seems far in the distance. Calm before the storm. A panther that’s ready to strike upon command.

Thump- thump- thump- thump-

They surround the area. The sound of excitement mixed with fear, intangible from each person. So many things are happening outside…

“M-my head…”

“Hey now.” The person stopped Ria from falling. She sounded like a girl, probably one of the guests that’s clearing this house. Yet her hand felt warm on her shoulder, like a sincere touch of a friend. “Looks like we’re not so far in age. Can you please tell me your name?”

Ria wanted to look up at the person in front of her, but her clothes were already torn and the disgusting scent of blood couldn’t leave her nose. If she were to move away her entire body would be exposed for this person to see. Not to mention the blood. Oh she could feel it drying on her hands – hers and others – trying to become one with Ria.

“Ria…” she said meekly, barely enough for this person to hear. “Jyuria…”

“Ria,” that person repeated. She didn’t ask Ria to look up, but her fingers already worked their way of tucking all the hairs gently. It’s distracting. It made Ria want to fall deeper and surrender her entire being to this officer. “Will you let me call you that? You can call me Maia. You’re safe now.”

Ria wanted to laugh at the word. Safe. How surreal.

“Maia…?”

“Yes. That’s my name.” She put her jacket on Ria’s shoulders.

“Are you my savior?”

Maia chuckled. “I would say that’s childish but I can’t play with the victim's emotions. So I guess you can say I’m your savior.”

“Oh… savior…” Ria could feel all adrenaline leaving her body after so long. She wanted to faint, to let herself rest. Maia’s shoulder seemed like a perfect spot at the moment. She’ll catch her like before, won’t she? So Ria took the gamble and let herself go.

“Whoa there… I got you.” Maia wrapped Ria in a warm embrace. Could it be that it's not her first time dealing with emotional victims? The thought left a bitter taste on Ria’s tongue for some reason.

“For your information, we’re going to see more of each other in the future,” she mumbled. “And I’m already hugging you like this.”

And Ria wanted to say that her laugh already gave her comfort. That it drowned everyone’s heart beats in her mind, and since her ear was so close to her heart that she didn’t want to hear anyone else’s. Ria wanted to hear hers forever. To stay in the arms of her savior and drown all the thumping and beating of people’s treasured lives.

Sadly, it was the curse she must bear.

Precisely, it’s the ability she paid for. With her own heart and soul.

Will she ever regret it, she wondered.

To be able to detect someone merely from the beating of their heart. Their presence; their emotions; their lies, she hears them all.

“You can even break them, if you wish to do so.

“A heartbreaker, in the flesh. Beautiful flesh.”

So many hearts to break; to ruin. All in the palm of her hand.

Human hearts… they always sound like a ticking bomb.

Tick, tock, tick, tock…

Ba dum… ba dum… ba dump…

What will they do when the time is up? Will they snap, will they run, or will they grab the nearest object and break your neck with it?

“No need to find out when you can make them explode like,” the creature snapped its fingers, “... like so.”

The creature must’ve sensed her curiosity. Curiosity is good. “At the price of…” it pointed at where Ria’s heart resides. “That.”

My heart.

To have all the hearts I ever want in the world…

All except my own.

“Ose, my dear conjurer.” The creature had turned into a beautiful man without Ria knowing. His kissed the back of Ria’s with much affection and mysterious glint in his eyes. “A pleasure to be one with you.”

Ria hugged Maia tighter. The kiss the demon had left left a burning sensation on her hand. She couldn’t believe she did that – devouring a demon. For now Ria can still feel her own heart beating in her chest. She can sense Maia’s too, as her cheek was pressed close to where hers is.

“My savior,” she called.

“Hm?” They’re both now sitting on the floor, with Maia still embracing Ria. “Hate to ruin the moment but it’d be embarrassing if you don’t quit calling me that in the future.”

“Meanie,” Ria mumbled. But it was enough to lift her mood up. She never knew she’d be glad of hearing the word ‘future’ before. “Do you have friends?”

“I don’t know. Maybe?” Probably not.

“Can I be yours, then?”

“As long as you quit calling me your savior.”

“Hahaha,” if Ria could jump happily, she would’ve done so by now. Who wouldn’t be happy for finally making a new friend outside of the whorehouse? “Nice to meet you, Maia.”

MaiRia's Relationship Chart and Appellation

credit to @/lesbianmido for making this chart!

Further detail below because I need to yap. Also Maia is an ex-Ultio and might (or might not be) involved with certain Darkwick incidents in the past. Same as Ria but she's always been in Sinostra. Some of these things are subject to change.

I am not in any way disregarding their characterization to the canon, I am merely interpreting them in a way that would fit to my original characters' interactions with them. If you don't like my interpretation, or if you're a non-sharing yume, you might want to step away.

Also these are hella long.

1. Maia's

Maia prefer to keep her nose out of Frostheim students. Mainly because the ones in power (Jin and Tohma) never poke into her business first. Sure the general students have reported her and Ria to them a few times due to some silly drama that those students started, but it's not worth having bad blood with someone who has influence in the police department.

Maia -> Jin: Tyrant Jin -> Maia: Lowly cop Maia -> Tohma: Three-eyed Creep Tohma -> Maia: Inspector Hasegawa

She feels indebted to Alan for accepting her in Vagastrom. She hoped to share his burden by being vice-captain but Maia was missing from Darkwick's radar because of her work (she was even presumed dead at one point). If you add that to her already-strained relationship with the institute, appointing someone else to take the job was the perfect way to spit on her face. At least that's what she feels about it. Regardless, she take it upon herself to be useful in Vagastrom by bailing those thugs students from jail. Of course they'll still be punished but it's in terms of Alan and Maia. She respects his way of handling them but still thinks he's being too soft sometimes.

Maia -> Alan: Mido Alan -> Maia: Officer

She dislike Leo for carrying the title of Vagastrom's Vice-Captain, but she still acknowledge his effort in fulfilling his duties– the results at least. She doesn't like that he tend to mess around and abuse that power, but as long as he's not putting the house in danger she could let him do whatever. And that doesn't mean Leo is free from having a target on his back either. The second he messed up Maia won't hesitate to take over his title. One day she would expose his police record (which she already has on her hand) to the public but she would rather use that for later.

Maia -> Leo: Mutt/Kurosagi Leo -> Maia: Bitch (behind Maia)/Miss cop

Sho sees her as somewhat a mentor. Like Alan, she order ask for some rounds in the Pit. Still, she's not as brutal as to go multiple rounds like Alan because she has other things to do. Maia would never say it out loud but she wouldn't be as resentful if Sho was the vice captain instead of Leo. But then again she's also aware he would abuse it for Leo's sake. He still thinks she's scary until now but there are times when she actually acts like a human being too. "Sometimes you're a bitch, senpai. But I've spent years with a meanie (Leo)." He feel a sense of pride whenever she compliments his cooking– making her one of his favorite HTH customer.

Maia -> Sho: Sho Sho -> Maia: Mai-senpai

Maia has some dirt on Haru and that makes her scary in his eyes (it's not that big of a deal, to be honest. It's just that Maia acts like she just discovered kilograms of cr4ck in Jabberwock hence why Haru is always on his toes). They used to be drinking buddies though even if only a few times. She sometime visits the safari for a jog and it's free of charge as long as she visits during closing hours.

Maia -> Haru: Sagara (Sagara-san) Haru -> Maia: Sir Maia

When Maia visits the safari and run into Towa, he would help her with physical training a little. Towa sees it as... more of a play-time but Maia doesn't care. He loves playing hunt-the-anomaly (no anomalous creature harmed) with her and hearing her talk about her case. The bloodier the better. Towa is like her personal therapist and trainer (please seek actual help, Maia)

Maia -> Towa: Towa/Towa-sensei Towa -> Maia: Sakura 🌸

Taiga creeps her out in a way that he's too unpredictable to figure out. One of Maia's specialty is solving ghoul crime and capturing them, so she hopes to never see his name on any of her case. Taiga remember her as the friend of his relative (Ria) and Maia wants it to stay that way. She does not want him to remember her name nor call her out. Maia doesn't want anything to do with him ever.

Maia -> Taiga: Hoshibami Taiga -> Maia: Lily's (Ria's) friend

Maia dislikes Romeo for two reasons: he is Leo's close friend, and that he had a history with Ria. Not a good one. Back then Romeo thought he could really use a high-ranking cop in his network but changed his mind after Maia made it clear she loathes him for what he did to Ria. Even though Ria herself choose to turn a blind eye on what happened, Maia continues to dislike him still.

Maia -> Romeo: Bastard Romeo -> Maia: Dog

Maia learned that Ritsu is a part of Shinjo family who had some history of making it difficult for criminals to meet their punishment. It's infuriating especially when their clients are criminals that Maia had caught with her own blood and tears. She might be a rule breaker despite her job as the upholder of justice, but there's a line to how far you can play with the law. Even though she bends the law here and there to her advantage, a punishment is always necessary when things go too far no matter who you are. But when a Shinjo is involved, any criminal can walk free if they have enough money to afford it. She hates that Ria is so doting to that Sinostra freshman, and now she's the only thing standing between Maia and her plan to balance the score with that family. As for Ritsu himself, he thought about one day partnering with Maia as he could use someone with her expertise. Had Maia wasn't so hostile to him, he could've looked up to her.

Maia -> Ritsu: Little Shinjo/that junior Ritsu -> Maia: Inspector Hasegawa

Maia has a good relationship with the current Hotarubi ghouls and she exchange friendly greetings when they pass by. She often see Subaru lining up in HTH, so they'd indulge in a little chit-chat as they wait for their turn to order. Maia knows about Subaru's mission (Lyca) but decide to keep her mouth shut about it since the order was from the Institute.

Maia -> Subaru: Subaru (Subaru-san) Subaru -> Maia: Maia (Maia-san)

Haku and Maia are also on good terms. Although they both seem to always half-ass their way when it comes to duties but at the end they still get the job done. She was disappointed when Haku decide to quit smoking since they're both partners in that area. Now she wouldn't stop bullying him for it with "Have you found that light(er) you're looking for?"

Maia -> Haku: Haku/Priest Haku -> Maia: Officer

Maia doesn't know Zenji still roams around as a ghost. Nothing much going on between them other than Maia finding his eccentric act amusing. If he was alive, she would love to chat about her crime cases with him. He would get new materials to work with and she got to feel that the things she'd done were not as bad as she thought they were. (Zenji was her #2 therapist after Towa lol)

Maia -> Zenji: Zenji (Zenji-san) Zenji -> Maia: Supreme Detective

She's always on guard when it comes to Edward because Maia was involved in kidnapping catching him, he could be holding some resentment and Maia would understand. But this is Ed we're talking about. The strongest ghoul she ever hunted. She couldn't care less if she's the one being targeted but she couldn't shake the feeling that Ed knows Ria's stigma— and now he is the reason Maia won't ever let her near Obscuary. Even interacting with any of students from that house will result in big argument between the two. Ed finds the irony very amusing and she does not take that in a positive light. Does she trapping him in this place or does she the one being trapped with him?

Maia -> Ed: Bloodsucker/Hart Ed -> Maia: "Hunter"

Maia knows Rui and Ria are friends, and knowing that she's being all buddy-buddy with a flirt irritates her. The big reason is despite his complaints about taking care of the vampire he's still an Obscuary no matter what, and Maia will do anything in her power to keep Ria away from anything or anyone relating to that. Rui once took a signal wrongly (and flirted with her) and it did not end well for him.

Maia -> Rui: Mizuki Rui -> Maia: Inspector

Maia only goes to Mortkranken for a small check-up or when she need sleeping pills. OR when she's badly injured that she needs to take off her left hand glove. She only let Yuri to treat her since he's the only one that knows about her stigma effect (besides a small number of people). As long as he keep it a secret, she will not sniff around on his experiments. With or without with a warrant. She dislike hospitals in general so she prefer to stay away from that place as much as she can.

Maia -> Yuri: Doc/Isami Yuri -> Maia: Hasegawa

2. Jyuria's

Ria and Frostheim general students tend to have problems a lot, even though Ria is always too busy to care these rich snobs would still want to poke her with mommy and daddy's money just for the sake of revenge. Well, everything that Ria did was all in the name of defense (supported by Maia). Fortunately, Jin and the Captain's bitch – Tohma – never put much thought into any of their silly conflict (thanks to Maia). Although she wished they could be her client one day so she can plant one of her spy even for one night but Tohma would most likely not let it happen. Having a patron like Jin would benefit her a lot but at the same time why would he ever need in the first place? Especially in that sort of thing. But hey, a girl can hope and that monocle is always standing in the way. People would think Tohma and Maia flirt with each other when it's all sarcastic remarks in the air.

Ria -> Jin: Your Majesty/Momma's boy (behind his back) Jin -> Ria: - Ria -> Tohma: Mr. Tohma Tohma -> Ria: Madam Ria

Despite not directly interfering with the casino, she still knows what's happening there from time to time. Meaning she's aware that Kaito has been playing cat and mouse with Romeo for some time. Lately she heard from one of her minion that he has trouble getting a girlfriend— and people like Kaito are simply Ria's favorite. A pathetic fail-guy who longs for love. A perfect client for her to find a match through her matchmaking business. Although if he's just looking for an arm candy to bring as lucky charm in the casino, he can still come to Ria and pick one of her talents. Or a few! Or even Ria herself if he could afford it! Kaito almost fell into her sweet trap numerous times but refrain because Romeo would be standing behind him in seconds. What's more terrifying than having a stalker screaming about your debt in front of a Hot (capital H) chick?

Ria -> Kaito: Cutie (for business purposes) and Kaito (Kaito-kun) Kaito -> Ria: Madam

Alan's aloofness sometimes makes it difficult for her to talk to him. But since Maia respect the guy, and that a friend of her best friend is also Ria's friend, she will treat him as such. One time Alan accidentally scared a pushy guy away with tail between his legs, it was comical. Ria is always open if Alan wants to work with her as a bodyguard.

Ria -> Alan: Mido (Mido-kun) Alan -> Ria: -

With Alan it's, "The friend of my best friend is my friend". But with Leo it's, "The enemy of my best friend is my enemy (and I will be 10 times worse than her)." Leo is eating up all drama surrounding Ria and doesn't hesitate to tease Maia about it– which most likely will earn him to lose a teeth or two had Alan not interfere. He got to say that he agrees with the public opinion that Ria is attractive, so a scandal with her is always an option in his book – that is until Romeo gave him that look of disappointment with a hint of anger and jealousy which intrigue Leo even more.

Ria -> Leo: Romeo's bitch little sidekick Leo -> Ria: Pimp Chick

Haru is a good friend of hers. She loves to have friendly-flirt with him in Rui's bar right in front of the owner. Haru is well-aware that they can never be a thing so he might as well enjoy whatever she throws at him. She genuinely laughs at his jokes and sympathize with his complaints (especially when it's about Taiga) which he really appreciate. So whatever things they do or say, they're all stay in the bar as little secrets between the three of them.

Ria -> Haru: Harry (Harry-chan) Haru -> Ria: Lily (Riri-chan)

Towa is simply adorable in her eyes – not in a way she would flirt with him but it's more like how she would act around a little baby. But make it one hell of a big baby. She love to hear about him from Haru and she also like to feed him flowers when she's not busy – in which a lot of them are expensive flowers she used to decorate her private office. After all, a friend of Haru (who is not a a headache to him) is a friend of Towa ;3 (Ria's words)

Ria -> Towa: Towa (Towa-chan) Towa -> Ria: Stargazer Lily

Despite the two being distant blood relatives, Ria is not that fond of Taiga and would prefer it if people doesn't label her as "Taiga's family" when they first get to know her. Of course it wasn't always this way until he changed. Ria built the casino together; all three of them, with Taiga and Romeo. She love the place as much as they do because it stands as a symbol of their bond, but after what happened she couldn't bring herself to handle things like she used to. Her feeling of dislike mostly comes from fear because Taiga doesn't act like someone she once knew. He's now a stranger in her eyes, and up until now she's still trying to familiarize herself with whatever is possessing her boss.

Ria -> Taiga: Boss/Bami (childhood nickname) Taiga -> Ria: Lily (Riri)/Crybaby (childhood nickname)

Rumor has it that Ria and Romeo had a past before. Everybody knows the three Sinostra seniors were always glued together but Ria and Romeo had a different relationship. They had a world of their own until things were changed. No one dares to find out why. Even as small as mentioning her name in front of Romeo would result in a sudden change of air. It is said that the big reason she stepped back from the casino was because of him, resulting in three of them having each of their own faction inside of Sinostra. Romeo and Ria give each other the cold shoulder and would rather send their minions to deliver messages instead of talk things out (mostly about the casino when it's absolutely necessary for her to be involved)

Ria -> Romeo: Romeo Romeo -> Ria: S.I.B (Sad-Ignorant Bitch)

Ria dotes on Ritsu like a big sister would do to her little baby brother. She would stalk follow him around like some crazy fan and will die of cuteness every time she sees him working hard on his case. You know... the type that would go "KYAHHHH >///<" and SHE WOULD MELT INTO PUDDLE OF MUD THE SECOND RITSU GREETS HER WITH A SMILE EVEN THOUGH IT'S A FORMAL GREETING! To her, his existence in Sinostra is like "a breath of fresh air in this bleak and murky house." Whatever the hell that means. Her dream is to one day being able to squish his cheeks with both hands, after that she would die peacefully. (Ria are you a pervert wtf...)

Ria -> Ritsu: My Little Ritsu/Ritsu-chan Ritsu -> Ria: Ria-senpai (She forgot to include her term of greeting in their contract. Initially she wanted him to call her "big sister" or "nee-chan" but the best she could get is being called senpai by him and even THAT negotiation took a long time to consider on Ritsu's part. Which is pretty understandable if he wants to keep things professional after receiving her signature.)

Unlike with Maia, Subaru finds interacting with Ria is rather eerie. Her boldness scares him a lot and you don't find people who can tell you're nervous from the sound of your heartbeat every day. She tends to make him feel invisible when she's around, and it's not in a good way. Sad to say he's the only one feeling that because she likes teasing him. But she's also not looking forward to another one of Maia's scolding when she gets too far for teasing the poor guy.

Ria -> Subaru: Kagami (Kagami-san) Subaru -> Ria: Jyuria (Jyuria-san)

"You look lonely. I can fix that." By suggesting him to use her service and find a partner, but sadly he always refuse. She doesn't flirt with him but would definitely flirt with MC when she's caught walking with him.

Ria -> Haku: Haku Haku -> Ria: Madam

Swanky guy who loved to praise her beauty and Ria ate that shit up every time because she knew all of them were sincere. Zenji did not try to get anything from her in return like other guys. She literally couldn't understand why people would dislike him let alone hate him. It's unfair that someone like Zenji would be gone so soon.

Ria -> Zenji: Zen-zen Zenji -> Ria: My Dear Pearl

She met Edward only once during her visit to Obscuary and that was also when she found out her stigma couldn't detect his presence— which was scary. Any hearts that she couldn't detect nor feel could only mean one thing, but in Ed's case it's because he doesn't have a heartbeat to begin with. As for him, Ed is simply curious on why his captor – Maia – is so hell-bent on never letting Ria step foot in his lair. After that encounter Ria is more cautious on her business visit.

Ria -> Ed: Mr. Hart Ed -> Ria: Young Lady

Rui loves Ria like he would to his own sister and so does she. He's the one who taught her all about mixing drinks up until she runs her own bar in Sinostra. Rui rarely leaves the two (Haru and Ria) when they visit because of a certain friend. That friend never asked him to do anything but Rui was perceptive enough to understand and do something about it. Sometimes he feel bad for keeping secrets from him. He wish that one day the four of them can be sitting together in the same place so he doesn't have to watch out for them like keeping eye on two broken ex-lovers who hate each other but couldn't let go of one another.

Ria -> Rui: Mickey Rui -> Ria: Ririn

He's amusing to tease but she would rather keep things professional with him. She often borrow students from Mortkranken to check on her talents' health and indicate whether they were exploited during their working hour or not. Even a scratch will not go unseen and she will hold them accountable for hurting her employees.

Ria -> Yuri: Doc/Isami Yuri -> Ria: Hoshizumi (Hoshizumi-san)

"Don’t get too close. I just finished training and I'm way too sweaty."

(between 11am and 4pm)

"Can I borrow your hair tie, honor student? ...You want to help me tie it? That would be nice, thank you."

(between 4pm and 8pm)

"Great. Fucking great. Why can't people just enjoy their vacation and not do crime? Whoever says it's to create memories will be sentenced to death by my own hands."

(between 8pm and 5am)

"Shorter nights doesn't always mean lesser workload, huh... Fuuuuck."

Autumn: (September-November)

(between 5am and 11am)

"Do you need my jacket? The air is getting chilly lately."

(between 8pm and 5am)

"I bought you a drink. Make sure to drink while it's hot, alright?"

Winter: (December-February)

(between 5am and 11am)

"I wish they would stop saying that phrase from Game of Thrones. My mind would instantly picture Kamurai with his ice sword and I don't know what to feel about that."

(between 11am and 4pm)

"My hair feels so dry – the product Ria recommended is useless."

(between 4pm and 8pm)

"(Sneeze) ...Fuck. So sorry for that, MC."

(between 8pm and 5am)

"Winter is the perfect season for homicide— statistically speaking."

Her birthday: (July 29th)

"Fine, fine. I'll celebrate my birthday. Why do you seem so happy doing this? More happy than the birthday girl herself."

Your birthday:

"I've emptied today's schedule to celebrate your special day. Keep in mind that I let criminals loose for another day just for you. Unless you want to celebrate by hunting them down with me, of course."

New Years: (January 1st)

"Let's hope for a much, much lower crime rate this year."

Valentine's Day: (February 14th)

White Day: (March 13th)

"Pink and yellow lilies. I hope they can cheer you up through tough times— and I hope they stand as a reminder that I'm on your beck and call whenever you need me."

April Fool's Day: (April 1st)

"Honor student, you have the right to remain silent— Pfft, you become so pale just from that? Wait... did you actually do something...?"

Halloween: (October 31st)

"Trick or treat! The trick is handcuffing you to me all day. Unless you're one of those people who see it as a treat..."

Christmas: (December 25th)

"I usually take most of the work during Christmas. I've decided to be a little selfish this year."

Idle: (about 20 seconds without interacting with the game) (below 13 affinity)

"I'm out. I have calls to make."

(13 affinity and above)

"A penny for your thought, or a bullet for your problem? I was joking. But that got me your attention."

Absent: (logging in for the first time in 2 or more days?)

"(Sigh) Another lost pup...? Don't waste my ti— Oh, it's you."

About others (opinion on other ghouls. asked by MC)

About Ria:

"If she fell into the depth of Tartarus, I'm falling down with her. It's nothing romantic, it's just that no creature would be sane enough to befriend her."

About Alan:

"His biggest mistake is letting that Kurosagi run things around as vice-captain. I guess as long as he keep that mutt in check, I can't really interfere much."

About Leo:

"I will bail any Vagastrom students out of jail without charge except for him. Hell– I would even put him behind bars myself. What, like it's hard? I can send you his police record on WickChat if you want."

About Sho:

"He's tolerable. I would have better opinion about him if only he's not Kurosagi's devoted follower. No offense. I like his cooking, though. And he can take a punch in the Pit."

• Who does your OC love? (platonic)

• Does your OC love anyone? (romantic)

• Who would your OC most likely to get a puppy-crush on? (but it can’t be the cc they’re actually shipped with!)

• Is there someone your OC didn’t like at first, but then got along with later?

• What is the worst thing your OC does in their story?

"Ria."

"? None."

"None."

"Isami...? He was noisy when I first knew him, he was even worse than Ria. But after some agreement we're prettymuch ok now."

"Using my stigma is more or less immoral. But then again that depends on who I use it on and what I do with them."

– Maia 🥃

"Zenji 😢. Rest in peace you swanky man. Sometimes I still hear your songs around school and that makes me sad even more. Mai and I miss you lots 💔."

"A girl doesn't tell 🥰"

"Such a silly question! I don't do puppy crush. I literally just got married to @ask-akira-shimizu yesterday and we're happy. Right, dear? 😉🥰"

"His Highness Kamurai. I didn't have personal grudge with him or anything so there's no need for you to find out more about that. Now that I don't see any reason why I should stay that way, we're now getting along ok."

"Not thinking clearly on who I should give my heart to... knowing it could cost me my own life one day. But then again, do you really love if you're careful about it?"

- Ria 🍷

Heyyy~

Can I get a hug from you two? Pretty please?

"No." Maia says flatly. "You're asking the wrong person."

"Who poisoned your coffee this morning, Mai..." Ria sigh. "Come here my dear Alli! Mommy will give you as much hug as you want." She spread her arms wide.

"Hugging is more of your thing, no? I'll leave you two to it then." With that Maia return her attention to he phone.

"I'm so sorry. Mai still needs time to warm up to other people," Ria says quietly. "I hope you understand..."

Hello o(〃＾▽＾〃)o

name 3 things that make you happy

favourite thing about the day?

favourite things about the night?

(For both Maia and Ria :D)

"Empty schedule, driving by myself to a rural area, and crying inmates after i put them in their place.

"I like to train by myself during the day but that depends on the weather. I tend to get lazy during summer.

"I'd say the quietness but ever since I moved to Vagastrom I often hear noises coming from the Pit at night. Unlike back in Ultio where dicipline is practically being shoved into everyone's throat so the night was always quiet. But then again it's not like i'm complaining either since I stay up often to check on some files from work..."

– Maia 🥃

"3 things?? So little! I'm an easy girl so a lot of things can make me happy (totally not a lie) but if I have to I'll go with Maia, money, and pathetic boys ESPECIALLY the ones with multiple digits in their back account ♡"

"My favorite thing about the day is when I get to be with Mai! Because she refused to move to Sinostra with me, I make it my mission to pester her all day long."

"Nighttime is when I meet clients. A lot of them are blatantly stupid and rude but as long as they let their money do the talking, I don't really mind. Counting the profit when it's late at night is my favorite thing to do."

– Ria 🍷

#ria: AKIRAAA COME MEET ME IN SINOSTRA SOME TIME WON'T U #ria: and thanks for the ask babe ;3 #maia hasegawa #jyuria hoshizumi #mairia archive

Could you tell us more about your stigma?

((Gonna answer this one as mun because I need to yap. Thanks for the ask, anon!))

Tw: mentions of blood through cutting or some sort, reviving the dead for revenge and to torture them, and literally exploding hearts (the organ)

It's pretty long so grab a snack or something.

Maia 🥃

Stigma: diarolumans (Andromalius)

"Andromalius is a mighty Great Earl of Hell, having thirty-six legions of demons at his service. He can bring back both a thief and the stolen goods, punishes all thieves and other wicked people, and discovers hidden treasures, all evilness, and all dishonest dealing. Andromalius is depicted as a man holding a big serpent in his hand."

In a nutshell Maia can revive the dead BUT ONLY GHOULS AND HUMANS! And only one person at a time. There's no limited time on how long she can keep the soul on Earth but for as long as she does tally marks will appear on her left hand and spread to her arm.

To activate it she needs to physically touch the dead body with her left arm and then handcuff them to her (with her handcuff artifact). Those that she revived will first writhe in pain from how they died and her artifact is supposed to lessen those pain while also bind their soul to her. Anything that she ask of them, they have no choice but to do it. But because of the limited time and the side effects, Maia only use it to questions dead assassins/individuals who killed themselves/being killed to cover up a case.

The longer the soul stays, the more tally will be cut on her arm by some invisible force. She won't feel much if it's ordinary cut but since the pain of the dead person is being transferred to her (i never said it'll disappear), the pain of the cut will be 3 to 5 times worse.

It's like keeping a soul prisoner and her skin is the prison wall. It's where those prisoner will keep count. The time each mark will appear are also different from soul to soul. If the person died willingly, the tally will appear more often because the soul would rather escape her. It's different when she's reviving someone who was murdered instead – like a witness, for example.

The longer she keep them, the more tally will spread; the further those marks spread, the closer she is to go berserk. She's never gone berserk in her life so she never know what it meant but her theory is that once it reaches a certain point, she won't be able to control it and she will become an open portal for the dead to return to earth.

Also the tally marks will never disappear. They'll look like tattoos to her after that. That's why she always cover her left arm and also wear one glove.

Hence why she only use her stigma when she reach dead end, when she really can't find another lead to solve a case. The price is just too high for her.

But one time she use it to revive Ria's kidnapper/stalker that she killed herself. A bullet to his head wasn't enough she brought the bastard to life without using her artifact. The things she did to him was so inhumane and she only stopped when Ria was screaming crying begging for her to stop because she knew about the side effects it did to Maia's left arm. Now Ria hates it whenever Maia has use her stigma and she will hate on anyone who make her use it no matter the reason.

Ria 🍷

Stigma: eos (Ose)

“OSE, or VOSO. – The Fifty-seventh Spirit is Oso, Ose, or Voso. He is a Great President, and appeareth like a Leopard at the first, but after a little time he putteth on the Shape of a Man. His Office is to make one cunning in the Liberal Sciences, and to give True Answers of Divine and Secret Things; also to change a Man into any Shape that the Exorcist pleaseth, so that he that is so changed will not think any other thing than that he is in verity that Creature or Thing he is changed into."

Ria can control and listen to people's heart(beats). She can even detect someone's presence in the room based on just that. Just like Maia, her stigma only works on ghouls and humans.

If she wants to threaten someone, she can make that person's heart beat faster or slower without even touching them. But to make their heart stop is another thing because she has to make physical contact with the person's vein – mainly on the wrist or neck. She's a literal heart-throbber. She can literally explode someone's heart if she wants to.

She can tell whether someone is lying to her or not based on the person's heart rate. Hence why no one can ever trick her in business dealings and that makes her one of the reliable sources of information in the institute (whether she wants to give that information or not is a different thing).

Back then (from 1st to 2nd year) Romeo would want her to be present when he's interrogating some rat. And it was easy for her to say yes too. But now that their relationship is not like it used to be, they had to go through a series of argument (through their minions) to work together.

"What's the price for such stigma?" Her own heart ❤

Her heart will never belong to her. It's a stigma that plays with her heart so she can play with others. She will always bound to love someone and she's not in control whether that person will return her feelings or not.

Did I mention she can control people's heart? Yes. EXCEPT those that she love. She can't hear their heartbeats. She can't detect their presence, she can never tell whether they're lying or not, she can't play with them in general. It's like she's facing another people before she made a pact with her demon. If she wants them to return her feelings, she has to do it old school way, unlike when she's toying with someone she wants to take advantage of because she will know how and what to do (she doesn't even have feelings for them to begin with)

Unless she love that person. And once she does she will love them to death. Literally.

Despite not being able to feel their beating hearts, the second those hearts stop beating (dead), she will feel like her heart is being ripped apart forcefully to the point of her crying blood and the only thing she would want is to die with them.

Moving on is not an option either. Sure, they don't have to return her feelings, but her heart remain theirs till the end of time. She can bear the pain of seeing them with someone else, but not when they die.

Also, if that person were to hurt Ria, she can't do anything about it. She can't ask or threaten them to stop and she can't defend herself. She can never bring herself to because those that she love automatically become her greatest weakness.

It's basically "your heart is safe with me" in literal sense. Giving her heart away to them is the same thing as giving them the dagger to use as they please. They can even use it to stab her and she can't do anything about it.

Currently there are three people who are her walking weakness. Maia is one of them and the only person Ria can hold on to (for now).

Who are they? That's for another time but what I can tell you is that not all of them are romantic love.
