Higurashi When They Cry Hou Ch. 3 Tatarigoroshi pt. Final

I'm doing things slightly different here.

The following takes place between parts 17 and 18 of my playthrough. The interview with Keiichi is a post-credits scene, but because of the amount of screenshots I took during the credits and the typing I did for some of the stuff coming up I figured to treat it as a separate thing. A nice little denouement. I really hope tumblr doesn't murder the quality of the screenshots here. Italicized words are my own interjections and not what is written on screen. I tried my best with some of the later parts.

Basically during this part and the credits I kept mashing the screenshot key.

"I made him seem like a very good person. I'll need to make him into a terrible criminal in the end."

"Apparently you're supposed to call disasters like the Great Hanshin Earthquake severe disasters. Still it's a terrifying operation plan. Though I guess sterilization operations are like this. I need to think hard so it's realistic."

"Jirou Tomitake A mysterious old man with the role of an extra yet still popular. He won't be doing much for a while.

Miyo Takano I made this character seriously suspicious. Seems kind of like the last boss. Maybe she should be to one to take the punches in the end. I need to make her so bad even coach would punch her. Maybe a full transformation in the end is in order.

Kuraudo Ooishi A Completely enigmatic man, though I'll admit he's convenient. Maybe he'll turn trustworthy in the end after clearing up the misunderstandings?

Katsuya Kumatani A completely enigmatic man, though I'll admit he's convenient. Maybe he'll turn trustworthy in the end after clearing up the misunderstandings?

Why is Kumatani and Ooishi's the same?

Kyousuke Irie I made him seem like a very good person. I'll need to make him into a terrible criminal in the end.

Rika Furude A convenient character who can't help but garner popularity. If Satoko doesn't get more popular with this, then she might not be able to make a comeback. Speaking of suffering, maybe Mion has it worse (pained laugh). A mysterious girl, in a way. The incarnation of the curse theory?????"

"Hinamizawa Village Gas Disaster In Memoriam List Apparently you're supposed to call disasters like the Great Hanshin Earthquake severe disasters. Still it's a terrifying operation plan. Though I guess sterilization operations are like this. I need to think hard so it's realistic.

Reina Ryuugu (spelling?) Passed away in the great Hinamizawa disaster. May she rest in peace.

Mion Sonozaki Passed away in the great Hinamizawa disaster. May she rest in peace.

Oryou Sonozaki Passed away in the great Hinamizawa disaster. May she rest in peace

Satoko Houjou Went missing during the great Hinamizawa disaster???

Teppei Houjou Went missing during the great Hinamizawa disaster???

Ichirou Maebara, Aiko Maebara, Daiki Tomita, Suguru Okamura, and Kiichirou Kimiyoshi Passed away in the great Hinamizawa disaster. May he rest in peace. (I didn't feel like typing it out five times)

Rumiko Chie Went missing during the great Hinamizawa disaster???

Yukikazu Kameda Went missing during the great Hinamizawa disaster??? I have no recollection of who Kameda is whatsoever."

"Tatsuyoshi Kasai I wonder if he really has a thing for Shion, that would be so cute if he did, hau u.

Shion Sonozaki The more minor of the twins always gets more popular, but to think it would still hold true. Maybe it's fate, or maybe coincidence. You're okay to think of watanagashi considering the suicide, though."

"Keiichi Maebara Did he just end up going crazy in the end? My condolences I suppose. Keiichi really never dies in a good way. Am I not allowed to laugh?

Diagnosed with a severe mental disorder… Mental disorder, what!? But with so many terrible things happening, people will break. You must never forget that feeling. We all live because we have a heart to live with. If we forget that, we are just living puppets. Remember you're alive and have a soul.

The more minor of the twins always gets more popular, but to think it would still hold true. Maybe it's fate, or maybe coincidence. You're okay to think of watanagashi considering the suicide, though."

This is the end of the story related text. The rest is credits for the episode. I think this is written from the perspective of whatever is actually behind the Hinamizawa/Oyashiro curse. The first part, about making him a villain again was shown way back at the very start of the series before the title card of Onikakushi.

""Higurashi: When They Cry" Serial Murder Novel Number 3: Tatarigoroshi A mysterious old man with the role of an extra yet still popular. He won't be doing much for a while.

I'm a little sleepy. Maybe I haven't been getting enough sleeping and gaming with all my heart. Or maybe I just want to play ragnarok online Oh, puritan, hah, hah, moe!

Scenario: Ryukishi07 Hello, I'm ryukishi07. It was a fierce battle this time, like it always is.

Partner in Crime: Yatazakura You really did a good job this time!! Let's put out the best stuff brothers can manage! (I might be wrong on this one?)

Scirpting: Yatazakura Thanks for everything again!

4U You're another one I always rely on. Thank you for everything you do."

"BT Your kind encouragement encourages me. Thank you so much.

Scripting Language: Me finding this scripting language was how it began. I wouldn't be here today without it.

Still, I'm really sleepy. The fatigue of a thousand years as they say. I may be doing this for fun, it's hard on my body. But it's nothing as long as i can get your thoughts and reactions!

4U I took so much of your time, so I'm sorry I'm late again. Gotta go debug more"

"BT You're another one i always rely on. Thank you for everything you do.

Production Yat Looks like he's got the hang of it. He was very fast on the clean up this time.

Graphics: Ryukishi07 Part of me wants a good artist, but having to trust someone else with it scares me too much (I can completely empathize with the creative idea of "only I can do this!)

Background location: Kameya Without your generous help, Higurashi would not exist. All those beautiful backgrounds are yours.

Yato Sakura Without your generous help"

"Ryukishi07 Without your generous help

Tsubaki Hey, this is totally nepotism, isn't it? Well, let's put that off as a joke

LRRP: Kameya You are a god. Sorry fo the weird abbreviation LRRP. I look foward to working with you and Daisuke in the future.

Jika Thank you as always, to hru. ab it stuc kin ro, tho ugh if brother unit e we'll be invinicible! Let's do our best!"

"Amamizu/Scarlet Thank you as always to hru.ab itstuc kin (The same thing is written for Amamizu and Scarlet here, and I admit I kind of gave up trying to figure out what's written there. "Thank you as always tohru? a bit stuck in?)

Music and SFX The Music studio Without beautiful music the world wouldn't turn. The main theme is important. It's a vital factor.

Dream Island Development Room Being able to mess with things from my house is a pretty huge plus.

Escateli~na Being able to mess with things from my house is a pretty huge plus."

no love for Koji. Awww.

"Minigames: BT Thank you so much for alwasy submitting great minigames. Give me some advice when adjusting them. Personally, I'd rather tsubaki in a ruse(?) s picture not be excessive I wonder why he doesn't understand?"

I wonder if the original release way back in the day had minigames in it? Like the club activities are playable games maybe? I'm now envisioning a significantly worse version of this game existing because it has something like the fucking awful gambling minigames from a Leisure Suit Larry just crammed in there.

"Homepage 07th Storming Party Still, I'm really sleepy. The fatigue of a thousand years as they say. I may be doing this for fun but it's hard on my body. But it's nothing as long as I can get your thoughts and reactions! Me finding this scripting language was I began. I wouldn't be here today without it.

Created by: Pride is fighting under your own flag. So I hope you understant why i don't want to "use my flag to make something weird. if you don't like it then raise a flag or two of your own." I hope this becomes a work to be proud of for life."

"Directed by: I'm ryukishi07. The path here has been a long one. But we're only midway through! The real stuff is still to come! I'll work harder than ever!"

Trying to decipher these and making sure I had them correct was a surprisingly annoying process. No one else on the entire rest of the internet seems to have bothered trying to decode what it all said. The steam forums especially were less than helpful. Just a bunch of people arguing six years ago about the veracity of what it says, and whether it counts as spoilers or MangaGamer "screwing with the plot." I do apologize for some of the attempts on my part basically just falling apart, but try as I might I just couldn't think of a way to make the letters available make any sort of coherent sense.

I mentioned it before, but I'm fairly positive that everything before the game credits is the entity behind the events of Higurashi remarking on the pawns they have available to toy with. Everything at the credits until the end title card there I'm sure was just Ryukishi07 having fun with it.

Gonna be honest with you here, I liked it, but not quite as much as chapter two. A reddit post I saw while trying to decipher the credits bits summed it up best: "Keiichi is cringe."

Gotta work towards a good ending. Can't just give it to your audience.

Let the god child drink!

Yeah, you're gonna have to address the body count of a thousand people eventually.

*sad trombone* Although I must say I do like the idea of playing as a protagonist other than Keiichi. Let the lunkhead go do something else, it's Shion's time to shine.

Keiichi aside, I liked Chapter Three: Tatarigoroshi, it was a severly depressing read at points, but it did provide some interesting mysteries towards the end. Why don't the dead stay put in Hinamizawa, what is puppeting the bodies around, and for what purpose? Why in this particular go-around was there a deadly volcanic gas that killed everyone in the town shortly after Watanagashi? Who were the twenty that disappeared? Satoko and Teppei were certainly two of them, but who were the other eighteen? Is it the masterminds of the cult? What is the importance of the woman who died at the start of the chapter, and did she really have any importance to the plot? I know there was the implication she was involved with the Sonozaki crime syndicate, but overall her entire subplot just vanished towards the middle of this chapter. Who killed Rika and why did they do it in a way similar to the murdered woman at the start of the chapter?

This chapter does however lend greater strength to the supernatural killer angle. Deliberately so, I'd say, since Chapter Two: Watanagashi leaned more hevily on the human angle to justify the killings.

Also:

"The shortest scenario," bullshit. This was just as lengthy as chapter two! It might seem shorter in my playthrough/readthrough, but that's only because I didn't want to be posting a bunch of screenshots and discussions about domestic violence. I felt it would be tonally at odds with my often lighthearted comments about the VN.

[stingslikeabee]

Calling a meeting of the major family patriarchs at Tojo Headquarters was always going to be a big deal - but today's event was even more special. It was the first grand get together hosted more for pleasure than business, due to the peace the Clan has recently, and, for many present, it was the introduction of the Sixth Chairman's new bride. A woman who had given up her civilian life to follow her love into this ferocious, far darker world. Daigo knew his wife was already a legend of sorts just because of that, but he suspected her story would grow after the success of her debut gathering.

In their home, Daigo yawned. He was content, belly full of tea and head heavy. Tomorrow, the Chairman would take the time to sort through all of the reports and questions buzzing around his brain. For tonight, however, he simply wanted to savor the memories of the impressed murmurs and hushed voices as his patriarchs saw her for the first time.

Daigo stood up and stretched. He walked away from their bed and over to Melissa, who was finishing her bedtime preparations. With a ghostly smile, he wrapped his arms around her waist and bent in to kiss her shoulder. The Chairman left her arms free for her use.

"You did beautifully," he murmured eventually, lightly resting his chin on the top of her hair. In the mirror, the yakuza practically engulfed her ; he was her fearsome giant, made of scarred pale flesh and dark features. Daigo's eyes glittered, twin pools of abyssal black warmed by her being close. "The Headquarters, the tea . . . Yayoi Dojima herself could not have done better." He sighed softly.

"I know this life is not ideal, Melissa," he continued quietly, squeezing her for a moment, "but I . . . love having you here with me." Daigo's voice wavered as all the pretty poetry he wanted to say left him. He resorted instead to pulling her back against him, unbothered by his own nudity, and simply holding her to convey his message.

unscripted asks . always accepting

There had been no sliver of doubt in Melissa's heart that she had to succeed - leaving a civilian life behind seemed like a small sacrifice to make when the benefit was having the one person that had truly seen her all these years ago. They had been young and carefree then - a hostess with a niche reputation, a brawler who made police officers groan in frustration.

But Dojima Daigo was destined for more - far greater things than winning drunk fights in underground arenas. Tokyo - or the entire Kanto region, for the matter - would be his turf to command, protect and see that it prospered after so much turmoil following the passing of the 3rd chairman of the Tojo Clan. And if Melissa wished to remain at his side, there was no other path forward but fully embracing that world - leaving Kore behind, the spring maiden, and becoming Persephone, queen of the underworld.

And just as Daigo had been shaped (or perhaps returned) to a man with impeccable manners, his girlfriend turned wife was required to follow a similar procedure. Whatever talents Melissa boasted as a hostess were helpful, but she was just the average mizushobai worker - for her new life, she needed to pour tea akin to a legendary geisha, memorize the names of each and every captain, understand the nuanced and often non-spoken rules of every environment and do everything in the most beautifully decorated kimono.

Okamura had been her steadfast helper and guide since the beginning; Sasaki later provided Melissa with intelligence on the different subsidiaries and dynamics, but the one mentor that everyone would acknowledge as the key asset for the ex-hostess transformation was none other but her mother-in-law. The fierce Dojima Yayoi, interim chairwoman of the Tojo and experienced in that world that was colored in so many delicate shades of grey for those born female.

Training had been long, extensive and hard - Yayoi was unforgiving, but Melissa could see she meant well. From the day they had spoken about Daigo and when the brunette reaffirmed that she would do anything to keep him safe (as she had done in different forms before), the matriarch nodded sternly and regarded her daughter-in-law with a look that was immensely similar to the way her son sometimes eyed her, too.

(Like mother, like son.)

So when the time for her formal introduction had come, despite having been married to Daigo for a while and with the quietest of the honeymoons (the one his job allowed for, of course), Melissa knew she had no room for failure - it was her one-shot at not only earning the respect of the other Tojo officers that didn't know her personally, but also the average officer that already thought less of women by default, let alone a foreign one.

But Yayoi's training paid off - there were no false steps in her kimono; the food was served perfectly; the headquarters were decorated as tradition mandated; even the seating arrangements demonstrated a carefully curated planning. As the evening progressed and the alcohol flowed, the clan members started to speak more openly about her and the results of the festive occasion - and with such unfiltered whispers, the ex-hostess knew she had succeeded.

The almost imperceptible but proud nod that Yayoi offered her before retiring to her home was evidence of that feat.

Once they made it to their home, Melissa felt all the tension finally leaving her body - and perhaps that was the reason taking her longer than usual to prepare for bed. The brunette had been distracted enough, replaying events from the evening in her mind and combing the long tresses (finally free of the ornate hairdo) on autopilot, not realizing she had been done until Daigo approached and kissed a shoulder.

The chairman's words of encouragement and praise had her smiling warmly at him despite the tiredness washing over mind and body. And yet, it was easy and comfortable for Melissa to lean back into his hold, placing the brush on the counter and just resting hands over his linked arms for a moment, enjoying their quiet closeness and the freedom to act like themselves again.

"Anata," there was a playful tone with the term of endearment, and Melissa chuckled softly before turning in his embrace, a movement allowed once the yakuza stopped squeezing her affectionately. The ex-hostess used her own arms then, bringing him closer by the neck and then freeing the digits of the left hand to cup his face tenderly. "We've talked about this before. An ideal life for me is the one that I get to be with you - I don't recall you storming the club, pressing a gun to my head and forcing me to accept this ridiculously expensive and beautiful ring."

The words were highlighted by the way Melissa briefly twirled the fingers, the bathroom light catching on the sizeable rocks on her hand. Standing on the tip of the toes, the yakuza fortunately read her wordless plea correctly and bent down for a kiss - a long, sweet one and that offered the first lady of the Tojo the lingering taste of tea, cigarettes and the affection Daigo nurtured for his wife.

"I will also have you know that your mother gave me a nod before she left tonight - so I guess it means Dojima Yayoi approved of everything, which is enough," the brunette smiled, pressing one more kiss to his lips, "You just wait until spring comes, Daigo. I'll throw the best hanami-themed gathering the Tojo has ever seen... I promise you, darling."

Morning Musume ‘23 【Kitagawa Rio, Okamura Homare, Yamazaki Mei】The 15th generation’s period of remarkable growth. What Do You Want To Do Your Best Towards the 30th Anniversary?

For the second VOCE x Morning Musume ‘23 25th Anniversary Collab, Kitagawa Rio, Okamura Homare, and Yamazaki Mei of the 15th generation are here. As they joined 4 years ago, the 3 of them discuss topics they have come to know about each other since they are in the same generation like, their growth is crazy! I can’t take my eyes off them! And they speak fully on things like, what they want to do to liven up the group.

–What kind of person is Kitagawa Rio-san?

Okamura Homare: She’s very mature and classy. She is the reliable older sister in the 15th generation. From my point of view as a generation mate, she is a little out of the loop and is mischievous at times; those are things that make her cute! She eats in a way where it looks delicious (laughs).

Yamazaki Mei: She has a pure and lady-like atmosphere. She’s good at studying, she has it together, and has the feeling of being a reliable older sister but, she has parts you want to poke fun at that are funny, and she’s a tsundere. Her singing voice is also really pretty, she is very good at dancing with her hair. She has taught me various detailed things about makeup.

–What kind of person is Okamura Homare-san?

Kitagawa Rio: She has a very cute baby face but she combines an overwhelming style and coolness in her performances. She is a kind girl with a personality of putting others first before herself. There is a bit of gyaru-like quality to her, she feels like an active high school student! (laughs)

Yamazaki Mei: Her face is small and her limbs are long, in any case she has excellent style. She looks and sounds really cute, such that she feels like a sparkling, shiny, idol! We’re in the same grade in school but since she is reliable, if Mei were twins with her she would be the older sister. Homare also loves make-up and is a bit gyaru-like!

–What kind of person is Yamazaki Mei-san?

Kitagawa Rio: It's not an exaggeration to say that she was born to be an idol, her idol power is amazing! She loves pandas, and can activate her “panda-san power”! When she is performing, she has an eye-catching presence; I'm always surprised by the strength of her idol power.

Okamura Homare: Yamazaki Mei-chan is everyone's little sister! Her really energetic smile is cute. Since we’re the same age, I feel calm when we’re together, she has a reassuring presence. She also has a surprisingly matter-of-fact side, I like that part of her the most.

–What is your most memorable memory from the 15th generation so far?

Kitagawa Rio: The 3 of us are always talking about wanting to go somewhere and this finally came true in August last year! We went to get shaved ice. I once again felt how our relationships have deepend these past 4 years; I met these 2 via work but we talk like we’re friends in private; from the heart, I’m glad that I’m in the same generation as them.

Okamura Homare: Our dance lessons shortly after joining. We were trying to learn the choreography before joining our seniors, we were together as the 3 of us the whole time; it was a dense period that had a lot of fun and tough moments. At first we were so caught up in ourselves that we weren’t in the mood to get to know each other but, once the 3 of us sat down and got to know each other, we became able to discuss anything. I think it was a really important time.

Yamazaki Mei: The ‘15th Generation Fan Club Event’. The 3 of us played a game where we had to match each other's answers but it was funny because we weren’t able to match for even 1 answer! Our live corner where we were singing together is an unforgettable memory. Next time, if we get the opportunity again, I want to perform in groups like, Rio-chan and Homare-chan, Rio-chan and I, Homare-chan and I!

–What are the other 2 in the 15th generation like to you?

Kitagawa Rio: We’re friends, coworkers, and rivals. I’m older than the other 2, and there are times when they feel like younger sisters. I think that we are the only 3 people who can have so many different relationships with each other.

Okamura Homare: Although each of us have different personalities, when the 3 of us are together, it's mysterious how we feel like we fit each other perfectly. I think we have good balance, I can feel at ease when I’m with those 2.

Yamazaki Mei: I feel at ease when we are together, we can speak plainly. They feel like a second family or sisters. Rio-chan is the older sister, next is Homare-chan, and then 3rd is Mei, in that order.

–The topic of the growth of the 15th generation has been “amazing”! Please tell us what you keep in mind when performing.

Kitagawa Rio: Dancing big without looking out of place! Not forgetting to stand out. The dance teacher taught me “Dance like your limbs are twice their length,”. I couldn’t really grasp the feeling of it at first but, recently I’ve really come to understand it. But, as long as we’re working as a group, I don’t think I should be the only one standing out so, while looking around me, I’m studying putting my own personality into my dance.

Okamura Homare: I’m really thankful for kind words, but I want to be humble at all times, and not take them at face value. I’m always thinking “I have to do more than I’ve done till now!” with performances but, I also think I shine the most when I’m enjoying myself, and I think people who watch it will enjoy it, so I also cherish having fun.

Yamazaki Mei: Performing where my expression matches the song and not just grinning and smiling, but making cool expressions as well. I’m getting to sing more of my graduated seniors' parts, so I want to add my own personality to it while referring to the expressions my seniors made. I don’t think anyone will have fun if I don’t look like I’m having fun, so I firstly want to have fun so everyone can enjoy themselves.

–Please tell us what you would like to do to make Morning Musume more exciting towards the 30th Anniversary.

Kitagawa Rio: I want to become the catalyst for knowing about Morning Musume. I know that there are people who come to like Morning Musume through gravure work; I want to increase the number of Morning Musume fans on my own! I think that I have to!

Okamura Homare: This year I turned 18; from now on, new members will be joining so I want to be able to look around and not just look towards myself. Also, I want to become more mature so that I can react calmly when things happen. In terms of performance, up until now its been sad as we have been in a period where we’re not able to cheer but, from now on I think I’ll be able to give a performance where I’ll stir up everyone’s voices, I want to say things like “SAY!” and “COME ON!” a lot. I want to do my best to give a performance that excites everyone.

Yamazaki Mei: Less than a year after joining we had to stay at home due to covid-19, since we were only able to do activities on our own; from now on as Morning Musume, I want a lot of experiences with live tours and fests! There are many things to learn from my seniors during the tours; I’m also discovering a new me, so I want to experience more and more things and increase my appeal.

–Please tell us what you would like to challenge as an individual

Kitagawa Rio: Work related to food and cosmetics that I love! I’m the type of person who really researches things once I’m interested in them; I think it would be nice to delve deeper into food and cosmetics with a serialization. I love Odagiri Hiro-san's hair and makeup, and I often watch him on YouTube; It's my dream to have my makeup done by him someday. I want to ask him various things about cosmetics and beauty.

Okamura Homare: This year I started a serialization about stationary, so I want to show off the appeal of stationary more. Also, since joining Morning Musume, I’ve grown more than 10cm so, working in fashion where I can make the most of that height, I would like to try out cool makeup that I don’t know how to do myself!

Yamazaki Mei: Work relating to my favorite Panda-sans! Since I love the sweets from my hometown of Hokkaido, I’d like to do work relating to that, too.

–What is one piece of advice you would give to the 17th generation members who will be joining soon?

Kitagawa Rio: Its, “practice 100 times more than you think you need to,”. When I joined I was inexperienced in dancing so, the hurdle I had imagined for myself was actually much lower than for those who had experience. Even when I thought I had practiced, I experienced many times where I was at the level where it looked like I hadn’t practiced at all when the teachers and seniors would watch. Even now I think, “let's practice 100 times more than I think”. If you practice to your limit you’ll feel better about it later on, like “my future self will thank the past me,”. 

Okamura Homare: If I were to give advice to the new members, try to meet everyone you meet with a cheerful greeting. I think there will be many things that are confusing or that you won’t understand but, “if you can first greet others properly, it’ll be alright because you’ll make a good impression,” is what I want to convey.

Yamazaki Mei: I want you to value your individuality. With your seniors that you admire, you may feel that you love them so much that you want to become so much like them but, I’d like you to absorb their good qualities while not erasing your own and keeping your personality alive.

[akiiyamashun]

Okamura stopped in the doorway of their room, robe open in order to reveal the pale gold colored lingerie set she wore. "I went to one of the shops that stocks Western clothing specifically," she explained, smiling with child - like pride. Her fingers cupped beneath her breasts to accent her next point. "I haven't bought a bra off of the rack in . . . since I got these enlarged, I suppose. Normally there's nothing shaped for my size ; luckily, there's a good stock online these days."

The heiress squeezed her chest, laughed softly, and then moved to their bed. She climbed into it gracefully, happy to claim her favorite seat on top of the moneylender. Even when he was laying down, she still considered his lower torso and lap area hers to use as a chair. Okamura studied her nails : pink, basic, just a touch too long. This artist would learn her preferences in time, she was sure.

"There was a little girl today who stopped me and asked if I wanted to buy flowers," Okamura continued. "She could be Midori-chan's twin, ichigo. Evidently, her mother owns the business. It's only the two of them. I hate flowers in the house . . . so depressing. Of course I didn't purchase anything, but I did give her all of the yen in my purse. They found me after they closed up, when I was drinking coffee at that cafe I texted you about. Apparently, we're all going to lunch tomorrow. My new small friend insisted."

The heiress stopped fussing and met Akiyama's gaze. "It's almost like home," she said quietly with a slight smile.

After a moment, Okamura brushed her waves back over her shoulders. She leaned forward, hands planted on either side of her lover, and sighed. "Listen to me, ichigo. I haven't stopped talking since you came home. Tell me about you. What was this handsome face up to all day, hm?"

unscripted asks . always accepting

The moneylender had a book in his hands - an old paperback edition and which clearly had belonged to other people first, but was nonetheless successful in holding his interest. Akiyama had always enjoyed reading in bed before sleeping when he was younger, and that habit had been picked up again in the hopes of helping him achieve a more regulated sleep schedule (if only for the benefit of their new life in Yokohama).

However, the very strangely disturbing and yet compelling read of that tome by Mishima Yukio was doing a superb job at keeping him wide awake; Akiyama was repelled by several incidents in the book, but couldn't put it down. Perhaps it was similar to the feeling of watching a trainwreck, but in print - however, all it took was his wife's voice for the spell of the book to be broken without any effort.

The thing was closed and placed on the bedside table - from that moment onward, he had eyes only for the figure of his beloved heiress in a lingerie set that was decidedly new (he knew; these were the things that his brain really paid attention to). Akiyama moved no muscle as the blonde approached, an easy grin taking up residence on his face as Okamura placed herself over his half-naked torso and his hands went to her legs by default, holding the blonde there and appreciating the softness of the skin underneath his palms.

(Impeccably scented, too; there was never a second that he didn't think he would be happy to die with his senses overloaded by everything that made Okamura Azumi so fundamentally her.)

The news about the way she had so freely given all the money on her person to a street vendor caused his grin to earn a softer, tender side; the relationship of his wife with money had always been a complicated one, but their own entanglement had caused the heiress to re-examine a few things. Not without a great deal of pain and guilt sometimes (just like Akiyama had experienced, however under more drastic circumstances), but the loan shark was always thrilled to hear about it. Little by little, the woman of his dreams was turning into the one for many common people around, too.

For entirely different reasons, of course - but to see the woman who believed herself to be nothing much beyond her appearance and material possessions realizing just how good and kind she could be was a lovely development. Okamura Azumi was much more inside, and Akiyama was glad that the precious side of his wife was now getting confident to shine more frequently.

"Uh, me? Nothing much, really. I didn't make friends like you did, my star," Akiyama chuckled when the topic of conversation shifted to him, a soft and airy chuckle getting out as he adjusted under Okamura's comfortable body weight and clearly at peace with the rather predatorial position she opted to take - a queen on her throne, a lioness pouncing on defenseless prey, a goddess bestowing favors to a loyal worshipper... All these were proper descriptions of how the moneylender felt where his abilities to resist the blonde were concerned.

"I was out doing some detective work today - there is something weird going with Yokohama real estate prices and apparently that is not a good hobby to have; I ran into the occasional thug here and there," the loan shark grinned up at Okamura - it was his way to reassure her that all was well, despite the asses kicked and the bones fractured earlier; really, Akiyama did not enjoy fighting, but sometimes there was so much he could do with words and charisma alone.

"I found this nice senbei shop, though. Apparently it's been with the same family for years... Best one I've ever had in a while, I feel like going back and taking you with me next time," he asked, a hand moving to touch the silky and lovely tresses of golden hair of his wife, finding Okamura's neck and resting his palm against the back of it just so he could guide her forward gently, a kiss following when they were close enough.

"But you're right, my love. It does feel like home, doesn't it?" the moneylender laughed softly, "At this point, I'm half-expecting to walk into Kiryu-san one of these days."

the okamura twins!!!!

[rosegoldandsequins]

❝ They totally wanted to build the pillow fort, not me. ❞ (for any verse of your choosing!)

❛ ❤ ⋯  

Okamura waved her hand, promptly dismissing the servant who had moved forward to announce her at the door to the royal rooms. He was new, judging by his nervousness at the sight of the rather impressive lion at her hip. The lady couldn't help but smile at the poor boy, though her painted lips curving up into one of her infamous little smirks did little to soothe him. With a clipped hmph, Okamura let herself in through the grand doors.

Beau butted his head against his mother's hand. She scratched at his fur idly, as glad as ever for his company. The fearsome cat's muzzle was graying — a testament to his age, now just over twenty — but still he walked with her. There was hardly a moment that the two were apart, and many considered the old lion to be an extension of the noblewoman.

Okamura followed the sound of laughter leisurely. Inside these more intimate quarters, her shoulders fell. Sighing softly, the blonde reached up, plucked out the elaborate pin holding her waves back, and allowed her hair to tumble down freely. Okamura affixed the piece to her dress, which was a beautiful pink color accented with gold ( like so much else in her wardrobe ).

She found them in a spacious sitting room. Emma, one of her older daughters, was the easiest to spot : the fourteen - year - old had the same distinct yellow hair as her twin. In contrast, the royal princesses and prince she currently played with — Hikari, Yayoi, and Edgar — all possessed dark, richly - colored locks of either brown or black. Okamura giggled as she watched the four children tumble together, seemingly acting out some kind of battle amidst a . . . fort made of pillows ?? and cushions, it appeared, from the furniture. Her emerald eyes glittered with amusement as they settled on her very dear friend, who did not yet realize they were being watched.

The Queen of Solaris was dressed down for her station, but she nonetheless looked as radiant as the sun. Melissa's cheeks were flushed, and her simple dress was wrinkled. Okamura ( correctly ) assumed that the Queen had been a part of the makeshift war during the afternoon. At the sovereign's side was a plush cushion, pulled off of a couch. Atop it was her youngest. Osamu was fast asleep, snoring lightly as his mother's fingers carded through the toddler's wispy hair. In Melissa's lap, a baby fussed.

At the sound of Ellie's complaint, Beau padded forward. Melissa smiled at the lion. She allowed him to sniff the littlest Akiyama without any protest, knowing well that the predator was practically a kitten around his less hairy siblings. Once Beau was satisfied that Ellie was in no danger, he turned his attention to the older children. They squealed with delight as the lion entered the field, thoroughly destroying the fort and changing the game.

Okamura approached the Queen. Melissa patted the floor next to her. The lady nodded and lowered herself down, smoothing her dress out to the best of her ability. She gently picked up Ellie and inspected the girl. After confirming that the baby was dry and comfortable, Okamura opened the clasps sewn into the side of her gown. Ellie responded immediately to her mother's offered breast.

"I thought so," Melissa murmured, chuckling. "It's lucky that Osamu needs to suckle still ; I could have fed her, Azumi, if you had wished to stay longer. I know how you feel about wet nurses."

Okamura scrunched up her nose. "I was quite done with being examined, monaka," she replied playfully. " — but I do appreciate the offer. You know this."

The Queen grinned. "I would imagine your health check - up went the same as my last."

"Everything with you appears physically fine for a woman of your age, but you are advised against producing another heir." Okamura repeated the declaration with an acidic edge, which made the royal at her side laugh. "As if we will avoid bedding our husbands until our wombs dry up. Neither of them would last a fortnight, regardless."

"Mm." Melissa hummed in agreement. "The healers speak as though we can defy the will of the Goddess, as well. Did you remind them that you were barren for six years before Merveille ?? and I for nearly three ?? We can only politely refuse the Goddess for so long."

Okamura glanced between Osamu and Ellie for a moment. Their miracles — one born after a dangerous miscarriage, one lucky to have survived his gestation at all. The Dojimas' littlest prince stirred, mumbling for his mother ; instinctively, Melissa moved him into the space previously occupied by Ellie. Osamu fit against her perfectly.

"How was he today ??" Okamura asked.

Melissa held the boy tighter, thumb stroking his cheek. It was faintly sunken and sallow. The tinge of yellow to his flesh was emphasized by the Queen's pale digits. "He is here," the sovereign said simply, drawing a shuddering breath after she spoke.

Okamura felt a strong swell of emotion rise up within her. She reached for Melissa with her free hand and leaned the brunette into her. The lady rested their foreheads together. A gesture they had once done as girls, then meaningless affection, but now one that meant so much more. They had shared it after every birth, after every loss, after every difficult day any of their offspring faced. From the first time Niran was bucked from a horse ; to the week Hikari was bedridden with a terrible fever ; to the night Okamura lost her daughters ; to every morning that Okamura clasped Melissa's hands while they prayed for Osamu to stay in her belly. Their lives and the lives of their respective broods were twined together, and Okamura could not imagine this journey without the Queen.

Melissa held fast to Okamura's forearm, comforted by her dear companion, until Edgar yelped. Both mothers immediately came to attention.

"Beau," Okamura scolded. The lion huffed at her, clearly intent on keeping Edgar under his paw while the other children climbed over his back in a bid to free the captured prince.

Satisfied that Ellie was securely latched, Okamura rose to her feet. She gathered up her skirts to the best of her ability with one hand and began stepping over the remnants of the fortress. Behind her, Melissa laughed.

"They totally wanted to build the pillow fort," the Queen quipped. "Not me."

Okamura joined in her friend's laughter. "I am sure," she replied. "Allow me to free your valiant knights from this odd - looking dragon. Once he is properly vanquished, I'm sure they will have fun rebuilding it. To Your Majesty's specification, of course."

Okamura Twin’s Birthday

Hey guys! I know it’s been a long time since I wrote something 6 fucking months, but it’s the boy’s birthday so I whipped this up for everyone. It’s mostly BonRin centered, but Yukio is in here too. It’s been a hard couple months trying to finish all the works I started, but I’m back on track, so expect more fanfics in 2018! I hope everybody likes this, it’s probably the longest fic I’ve written. Please enjoy!

Happy Birthday Rin

Suguro didn’t know what was worst, being trapped under the mistletoe with Okumura or actually wanting to be trapped under the mistletoe with Okumura.

Christmas. It used to be his favorite holiday of the year, but as Suguro grew older he realized that the things he wanted, Santa couldn’t bring him. In a weird way it taught him to work hard for what he wants, determination will always succeed in the end no matter what’s in your way. That’s what he believed in.

But now, at the age of eighteen, all Suguro wants is to take a nap. He was doing just that until Shima barged into his room and yelled at the top of his lungs. “I didn’t get them a gift!” He didn’t see the textbook flying until it smacked him in the face.

“Get the hell out. I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I don’t care. I had a bad day and all I wanna do is sleep.” Grumbled Suguro as he burrowed under the covers.

“But Bon!” Shima whined. “It’s the twins birthday party tonight and I didn’t get them anything.”

“Buy them a gift card.”

Shima pouted at his friend. “Whatever, I’ll just go ask Koneko, he cares about his friends birthdays.” He stuck his tongue out at the boy and left all while mumbling about what to buy.

It’s not that Suguro didn’t care about Rin’s and Yukio’s birthday, he knows they don’t care about that kind of stuff. Being born on Christmas, for most kids, means you get a double whooping of presents. But he knew that their dad couldn’t get them much growing up, he grew up the same way. Birthdays are to celebrate the day someone was born, not the receive presents just for being alive. But if he shows up to the party without a gift, will they be mad? Even if he did get something, would they even like it?

Suguro shook his head to clear his thoughts then sighed. Guess he’s buying something for the twins. And they better appreciate it.

He climbed out of bed and rummaged through his backpack for his wallet. He opened it then flinched. He’s completely broke. Great, just great. Now what?

He looked through his drawers for some money, but only found some out paper cutouts Shiemi made him. After finding some crayons (that Shiemi left in his room after making the cutouts), Suguro decided to make a card for Yukio. It may not have been much, but it’s the thought that counts.

Since Shiemi has a knack for arts and crafts she taught Suguro the basics for making a homemade card. It wasn’t hard until he had to color in the lines of his letters then outline them. He can vanquish deadly demons on a regular basis, but he can’t color inside the lines. Go figure.

“There, finished!” He exclaimed as he sat cross-legged on the floor. Crayons and scraps of paper littered the place where he sat. Suguro held up the card to admire his handiwork.

It took him awhile, almost half an hour, to complete his little gift. All it said was a quick birthday wish, thanks for all he’s done for the class and being a good friend, and Suguro also found a good luck charm in his dresser so he stuck it in the card. One twin down, one more to go.

Suguro stood up and went to place the card in his backpack. But as he stared at the present, a frown appeared on his face.

Yukio was easy, Suguro knew he’d appreciate the card even if it was kind of shitty. But Suguro didn’t know how Rin would react to getting the same gift as his brother. He’d probably like it, but then wonder why he didn’t receive anything different.

“I can’t give a card to Rin,” he said to himself. “I want his gift to be special.”

After the words left his mouth, Suguro was glad he was alone. Did he really just say that? Yeah, he wanted to get something a little different for the older twin, but does he want it to be that special? Like, with emotions and stuff?

Suguro shook his head. Rin is his friend, a really good friend. It’s his birthday so of course, the gift has to be great. It’s not every day your average demon turns seventeen.

The boy placed the card in his backpack and glanced at the clock. Three o'clock, that gives him an hour to find the perfect last-minute present for his best friend. Suguro rolled his neck and shouldered his bag. “Time to get crackin’.”

                                                             *

Izumo was no help. Her and Paku got the twins jackets, one was blue with a white smiley face doing the peace sign and a black one that says “No.” also painted in white. By just looking at them, you can tell which is for the which twin.

“I’m actually surprised you bought them anything,” said Suguro as he sat next to them on the fountain. “Usually you don’t give a crap.”

Izumo crossed her arms. “I was just going to give them socks, but Paku said we should get them something nice.”

Paku lightly shoved her friend. “This is the first time she’s been invited to a birthday party, she wanted to go all out.”

“Paku!” Izumo had a light blush on her cheeks. “Why’d you tell him?”

Suguro stood then said he’d meet them at the party later. As he was walking he ran into Nemu and his weird puppet. He was invited too but said he had other plans. Pretty sure the only thing he’s doing is talking to his doll.

While mindlessly walking around campus, Suguro heard his name being called. He turned to find Shima and Koneko running towards him with a big bag.

“Bon! You gotta see this!” Yelled the pink haired boy as they reached him. He opened the bag and Koneko grabbed what was inside. Suguro has seen a bunch of gag Christmas gifts before, but this was something else.

It was a white chef’s apron that had the words “KISS THE DEMON” plastered on the front in black.

“Don’t you think it’s perfect?” Asked Koneko. “I bought the apron at the mall a couple of days ago, then just altered the saying.”

Suguro looked at Shima who had a proud smile on his face. “So you just jumped on his gift? Without contributing?”

Shima faked a pained expression. “How dare you, of course I contributed!”

“He sewed the words,” said Koneko. “I was actually impressed he was able to do it.”

Suguro’s eyebrows shot into his hairline. “You can sew?”

“When you have a rambunctious little sister who tears her dresses, you tend to pick up some useful stuff.” Shima winked at them then placed the apron back in the bag. “We also got something special for Yukio, but you’ll have to wait to see it.”

“What did you get the twins, Bon?” Asked the shorter boy.

Suguro rubbed the back of neck sheepishly. “I made Yukio a card, but I haven’t gotten anything for Rin yet.”

Koneko patted his arm in a reassuring way. “Don’t worry, whatever you decide to get, Rin will like it.”

“How do you know?”

“Because it came from you.” He smiled then turned to walk back to the dorms. “See you at the party!”

Suguro turned and walked a little farther until he sighed and plopped on a bench. He took out his phone to check the time. 3:41 pm, he had little over fifteen minutes to think of something for Rin. He slouched on the bench, for some reason, what Konekomaru said was replying in his head. As long as the gift was from him, Rin would be happy.

Suguro sat bolt up. It was so freaking obvious that he missed it. He doesn’t need to buy a gift for Rin, he could just spend a whole day with him and the guy would be happy. Not to mention Suguro would be happy too, they haven’t had much time to hang out like regular friends do.

Maybe they could go watch a movie or get some dinner. Rin’s been meaning to go to that new arcade that opened at the mall, he could take him there. Then they’d take a walk in the park and get some ice cream and…wait a minute. Would this be like a date? It kind of seems like a date. But it’s just two friends hanging out, nothing between them, right?

A dark blush crept up to Suguro’s face at just the thought of going on a date with Rin. There’s nothing wrong with going on a date with him, it’s just that Suguro has never been on a date before. He’s always focused on school or exorcist training to really date anyone. He’s been asked out before by a good number of girls, but he just never felt anything towards them to actually accept them.

Suguro shook his head to clear him of those thoughts. He didn’t need to be remembering his lack of a love life when he was supposed to be looking for a gift. He stretched his arms above his head and heard satisfying pops in his shoulders. He then stood, taking his phone out of his pocket. 3:48 pm. Suguro had enough time to run back to the dorms and take a quick shower before the party.

He turned to the direction of the dorms and started walking. While walking, he couldn’t help but linger on the thought that going out with Rin wouldn’t be too bad.

                                                             *

By the time Suguro arrived at the dorms and took a shower it was ten past four. He was deciding what to wear when his phone rang. He picked it up to see Shima’s number.

“Hello?”

“Bon, are you still in the dorms?” He sounded like he was in a panic.

“Yeah, why?”

Shima sighed in relief. “Go to my bedside table and grab the little card by the lamp.”

Suguro spotted the card, he picked it up then snorted. “A certificate for free mineral water at the school cafeteria and store for a year?”

“Yup, that’s the one! Bring it when you get to the party and hurry up, everyone’s here already.”

“Yeah, yeah, be there soon.” They hung up and Suguro put the card in his back pocket. He turned back to his closet and just chose the first thing he saw. It was a good thing he did laundry yesterday.

Suguro looked in the mirror and couldn’t help but run his fingers through his short hair. He kinda misses his long hair, but it was time for a change. He did a once-over to make sure his clothes looked fine. He was wearing blue jeans and a black button up with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. In his own opinion, he looked good.

He made sure his phone and the certificate were in his pocket. He looked out the window to check for snow but there was nothing. The weather has been weird lately so there’s been no sign of snow, even in the middle of December. Even if there’s none, Suguro snatched his jacket and gloves off the bed. He grabbed the homemade birthday card from his backpack and was out the door.

On his way to the twin’s dorm, Suguro couldn’t help but think if his idea is a good plan. It could backfire on him in a good number of ways. He might stutter while asking Rin and make a complete fool of himself. Or Rin might say he has other plans and reject him. Or they go out, they start arguing, and then Rin flames up during dinner and everyone wonders why there’s a screaming boy on fire in the middle of a ramen shop.

Suguro sighed. Will Rin even want to go out with him?

He made it to the dorms and slipped inside. He took off his shoes by the door and walked to the dining area where he heard laughter. He entered the room to see the party in full swing. Yukio was hanging decorations. Shima, Koneko, and Shiemi were throwing confetti around and handing out party hats. Paku and Izumo were setting up the karaoke machine. Shura was sneaking snacks from the kitchen and Kuro was running around with a small Santa hat on his head.

“Hey, Suguro!” Rin came bounding from the kitchen with a huge smile on his face. There was flour powdered on his clothes and frosting on his cheeks. He looked freaking cute. “Glad you could make it buddy!” He draped an arm around his shoulders (with a little difficulty because he’s shorter).

Suguro snorted as he was lead further into the room. “You kidding me? I wouldn’t miss your birthday.” Suguro saw the light blush color Rin’s cheeks before he could turn away.

“Alright, everybody’s here,” called Shima from the stereo system. “Let’s party!” He pushed a button and music started blasting from the speakers. Everyone cheered and began dancing, even Yukio was laughing at the antics of his friends.

“C'mon Suguro!” Rin grabbed his hand and Suguro tried to ignore his pounding heart as the boy dragged him to the dance floor.  

                                                               *

Present opening is a wonderful time at birthday parties. You get to watch your friends face as they open your gift or in Suguro’s case, you’re freaking out thinking your friends will hate your gift.

As everyone gathered around the center table in wait for the twins to open their gifts, Suguro was fidgeting in his seat across from Rin. He was tearing apart the box that Izumo gave him when he finally opened it, he smiled so brightly, he outshined the sun.

“Izumo! This is amazing, thank you!” He pulled her into a hug despite her protests.

Yukio opened his and chuckled at the sight of his jacket. “Thank you Paku. I feel like it suits me well.”

They moved on to Shiemi’s gift which were handmade scarfs. Yukio’s scarf was white with little snowflakes dotting the yarn, while Rin’s was a royal blue with night stars splattered across the length.

“Shiemi, how long did it take you to make these?” Asked the younger twin as he ran his hand along his gift.

“Oh not that long, probably about two months. My mom helped me with the patterns, I’m not very good at knitting so it took a while to get the hang of it.” She smiled at Yukio, a light blush blooming on her face. The next thing she knew, he pulled her into a bear hug, enveloping her in his arms.

“Thank you.”

Suguro snuck a glance at Rin, he had a small smile, but his eyes looked sad. He knew the guy was happy that Yukio and Shiemi are getting closer, but there’s something still bothering him. Whatever it was, he wasn’t about to let it get between his little brother and the girl he liked.

“Okay, yeah those are great and all,” said Shima as he wiggled his way between the twins. “But get ready to be amazed!” He placed a bag in front of Rin and a small box in front of Yukio. “You guys can thank me and Konekomaru later.”

Rin dug into his bag and pulled out his folded apron. He took one look at the saying and his face lit up brighter than a Christmas tree. “You guys, this is freaking awesome!” He stood and tackled his two friends into a hug. “Thank you so much!”

Yukio eyed his box, expecting something to jump out of it. “Nothing is going to hurt me is it?”

Shima snorted. “Nah, the thing in there is one hundred percent safe.” He smiled a smile the Cheshire cat would be jealous of.

Yukio hesitantly opened the box, reclining a bit just in case something sprang out and attacked him. When he peered into the box, he snorted. “You guys really get me.” He took out the small card and presented it to Rin. “At least my friends remembered about my mineral water.”

“Oh my God! It was one time!” Rin had an irritated tone in his voice but he had a smile on his face.

The whole room erupted into fits of laughter at his outburst. He looked like he wanted to hug his little brother or put him in a chokehold. Either way, both would still be laughing.

“Okay kiddies,” said Shura as she came up behind the twins and placed a hand on both their heads. “My turn.”

“Should I be scared?” Asked Yukio.

“You should be if you don’t like it.”

She reached and grabbed a square box from the far end of the table and placed it in Rin’s lap. “It’s somethin’ for the both of you so I don���t wanna hear any complainin’.”

“If the gift is anything like your wrapping,” said Rin as he began opening the box, “then I would be…very…” He trailed off once the top was removed.

Inside was a framed picture of the boys and Fujimoto. The three of them were under a sakura tree outside the church, both boys were wearing their middle school uniforms and huge smiles. They had their diplomas in the hands that weren’t around their dad, who looked like the proudest person on Earth.

No one in the room moved or spoke. Everything was quiet. No one wanted to disturb the moment that had everyone frozen.

Surprisingly, Yukio was the first to break the silence. “How’d you get this?”

Shura shrugged. “I went to the church and asked around. One of the guys told me that there was a picture, a single picture that survived the fire. The last one Shiro took before he…” She choked on her words but quickly recovered. “Before the incident.”

“I knew dad had this, but I didn’t know he developed it,” said Rin. He ran a hand over the glass. “That sly old man.”

“The guys told me he kept it in his room, next to his bed.” Shura ran a hand through her short hair. “You two were the last faces he saw before he slept and the first he saw when he woke up.”

At that, Rin finally cracked. A violent sob racked his body as tears trailed down his cheeks. His shoulders shook with every breath he took. To his right, Yukio was spilling a few tears himself, but he was so quiet, no one noticed.

Shura leaned down and wrapped her arms around both boys. “Geez, if I knew you two would cry, I would’ve just given you cash instead.”

Rin let out a chuckle as he wiped his eyes. “No matter how much I would appreciate that,” he looked at Yukio then to the picture, “I think this is way better than cash.”

She ruffled their heads. “Happy birthday.”

On the outside, Suguro was smiling at the family moment, but on the inside, he was screaming. Everyone gave the twins awesome gifts, but Shura’s is the icing on top. How is Suguro’s crappy card going to compete with any of those?

“Looks like that’s everyone,” said Shiemi. “It’s time to eat!”

Bless her.

Everyone started to gather more chairs around the table. Rin and Shura went to the kitchen to grab the food, while Konekomaru was setting the table. Looks like present opening is over.

“Wait a minute, there’s one left.” Shima picked the card up from the floor.

Fuck.

“It’s to Yukio, from Bon,” he said as he gave Yukio the card. When he passed by Suguro, he gave a thumbs up. Shima, you are a dead man.

The boy took the card then read the short note inside. He removed the charm from the crease and smiled. “Thank you, Bon. I really like this.”

Suguro felt like a weight was lifted off his shoulders. What was he so worried about? His friend appreciated his gift, no matter how shitty it may be. He can finally breathe easy knowing Yukio liked it.

“Hey look, he even drew you in the corner,” said Rin as he snickered at the card. “I think it captures you well.”

And the weight is back. How could he forget about Rin in that moment? Great, now Rin is going to be angry that his brother received a present from Suguro, but not him. His best friend.

Rin glanced over at him, probably expecting his own card with a crayon portrait of himself. He was about to open his mouth to say something when Konekomaru jumped in. “Alright, I’m starving, let’s eat!”

Koneko, you are an angel sent from above.

That snapped everyone back to reality and helped them realize that they were actually hungry. Shima and Shiemi brought out the rest of the food while Rin went to turn the music down. This was Suguro’s chance to talk to Rin and explain the whole gift situation.

The half-demon was about to walk back into the kitchen when he was pulled aside into a hallway. Okay, listen, Suguro didn’t mean to grab the dudes hand, it just happened. Let’s just say that when they were face to face in a dimly lit hallway, Suguro was glad Rin couldn’t see the blush appear on his face.

“Hey, dude, what are you doing? We’re about to eat,” said the shorter boy as he crossed his arms.

“I need to tell you something.”

“If it’s your undying love for me, can it wait till after the food?”

Well, that earned him a punch to the arm.

“I’m serious!” Rin snickered as the blush darkened and moved all the way to his ears.

“Okay, okay. I’m sorry,” he said while failing to hide his laugh. “Go on.”

Suguro rubbed his neck and avoided eye contact. “Well, it’s just that, er…I didn’t get you a birthday present.”

He looked at his friend only to find an annoyed expression on his face. “Really? That’s all you had to tell me?”

“Um, yeah.”

The one that threw the first punch, was now getting punched.

“Hey, ow,” Suguro exclaimed as he tried to block the painful blows. “What the hell is wrong with you?”

“You idiot!” He landed a last one on his chest that’ll surely leave a bruise. “I thought something was wrong with you!”

“You’re not mad?” Asked Suguro as he rubbed his chest.

“Of course not!”

Well, that went better than expected. “But I didn’t get you anything.”

“I’m a little peeved that you gave Yukio a homemade card, but the fact that here you’re after the day you had is a gift in itself.”

“Oh, so you know about that?” Suguro kept his head down.

“Yeah, Konekomaru told me earlier, pretty sure the whole school knows about it.”

Earlier that day, a girl in one of Suguro’s classes asked him out and he bluntly rejected her. The girl, shaking in rage, dumped her lunch on his head in front of the whole courtyard. Apparently, the girl was pretty well known within the school as the daughter of a wealthy family who funded most of the school activities. Throughout the day, guys have been coming up to Suguro and telling him how stupid he was to turn her down. Others started picking fights because they were afraid that their clubs would be shut down if the girls family stopped their donations. Overall, Suguro had a really shitty day.

The taller boy slumped against the wall. “Yeah, well, it seems like the whole school wants to pick a fight with me.”

“Aww, is princess Bon-Bon scared?” Rin asked in a tone someone would use to talk to babies.

“You fucker!” Suguro grabbed him by his shoulders and spun, pushing him against the wall he was leaning on. He twisted a hand in his shirt and snared. “I ain’t scared of nothin’!”

“Really now? You wanna fight on my birthday?” Rin wore a smile, one that made Suguro either want to punch or squish his face.

“I don’t wanna fight, you started it.” Their faces were dangerously close, nose only inches apart. Maybe Suguro could headbutt him and they’d be even.

Rin was about to say something but glanced upwards. He then smirked, a curl of his lips the worst villain would be proud of. “So you didn’t get me a gift, right?”

The hand in Rin’s shirt slacked a bit, but the fire in Suguro’s eyes didn’t die. “Yeah. And I’m trying to apologize for it.”

“You could make it up to me.”

Suguro’s face relaxed, but his hand tightened on Rin’s shirt again. He raised an eyebrow and leaned closer to his personal space. “How?”

“Look up.” The smiled was back. That damn smile made Suguro’s heart skip a beat. He hated it when it did that.

When he looked up, his stomach dropped. Hanging below the doorway a few feet from them was a mistletoe, practically glowing green. Suguro looked at the ornament then to Rin, who looked so smug it made his stomach churn.

“You sneaky little bastard. Did you plan this?” He finally dropped his hand from Rin’s shirt and stepped back from him. “Or do you just want to get on my good side after that princess comment?”

“Oh?” Rin crossed his arms. “So you’re saying you’re not opposed to the idea?”

Suguro snorted. This fucker is really starting to piss him off. But if he’s being completely honest, the idea of kissing Rin didn’t make him sick. It had the opposite effect.

“You do know we’re not technically under the mistletoe, right?”

“You do know you didn’t give me a birthday present, right?” So he wants to play the guilt trip card. He really is the son of Satan.

Suguro slammed a hand against the wall next to Rin’s head, startling the shorter boy. He leaned down so they were eye level. He never noticed how strikingly blue his friend’s eyes were. It gave him a sort of calming reassurance to what was about to happen.

“You don’t know what you’re getting yourself into,” said Suguro as he glanced at the boy’s lips. “This could end badly for both of us.”

Rin looped his right arm around Suguro’s neck and brought him closer to a point where they were sharing the same air. “Well, it’s my birthday. Whatever I want, I get.”

The next thing he knew, Suguro’s lips crashed against Rin’s. It wasn’t rough like he thought it would be, but instead, it was soft and warm. The feel on Rin’s lips against his slightly chapped ones made Suguro’s head spin. The hand that was on the wall moved to cup Rin’s cheek, while the other traveled down to hold his hip. The black haired boys left arm came up to drape across the boy’s neck, his right hand moved to lightly scratch the hair on his neck, making the taller boy shudder.

They broke apart when they both needed air, but instead of detaching, their heads leaned until their foreheads were touching and Suguro’s hands laced around Rin’s back. They didn’t say a word, they just stared into each other’s eyes like they were in a cliche romantic movie. It wasn’t awkward or uncomfortable, but soothing, like something that used to hang in between them, something that they didn’t know was there, finally showed its light. Basically, it was the best few minutes Suguro has ever had. It just had to be ruined by a nosey pink haired perv.

They didn’t see their friend until the flash fired. In the doorway stood Shima with his phone out, trying to hide the laughter that so desperately wanted to escape. “That’s definitely going to be a Christmas card!”

“Shima!” Yelled Suguro as he untangled himself from Rin. “You are so dead!” With crimson cheeks, he lunged for the phone but missed when Shima bolted into the other room.

He ran after him, nearly crashing into Yukio who looked just as confused as the rest. The two boys played a game of cat and mouse, zig-zagging around the dining hall. Shima was going to make a beeline to the hallway leading upstairs until Izumo ‘accidentally’ stuck her foot out, tripping the boy. Suguro tackled him around the waist while he was regaining his balance. The two wrestled for the phone until Suguro got Shima into a headlock then snatched the device from his hand. He scrambled to his feet, intending to delete the photo, but was stopped by the little bastards password.

“You asshole, get rid of the picture!” Exclaimed the taller boy as he tossed the phone back.

“But why? You guys looked so cute!”

Suguro was about to lunge again when a happy squeal pierced the air. Shiemi was looking out the window, jumping up and down with glee. “Look, everyone, it’s snowing!”

With Shima completely forgotten, everyone gathered around the window. Sure enough, there were fresh layers of snow outside the dorm with more following suit. The sun finally set over the horizon, allowing the moon to brightly shine through the clouds, casting a mesmerizing light over the flakes falling from the sky. In a way, the snowflakes looked more like small diamonds.

“C’mon let’s go!” Shouted Paku as she and Izumo were putting their jackets on.

That made everyone jump to put on their coats and gloves. While bodies were rushing to get outside or stuff whatever food they could in their mouths, Rin finally stepped out from the hallway and made his way over to Suguro who still stood next to the window.

“No sign of snow the whole month, but the day my birthday rolls around, it falls in sheets.” He smiled as Shura threw a snowball at Yukio’s back. “Kinda weird this is happening again.”

Suguro raised an eyebrow. “Again? This happened before?”

Rin moved away from the window to grab his jacket hanging on a chair. “The weeks before our tenth birthday, Yukio and I would hope for snow, but always wake up to nothing. Then the moment we blew out the candles, we see the first snowfall.” He slipped his arms into the sleeves and started to pull his boots on. “Dad told us that our mom knew we wanted snow, so she granted our wish from heaven. It’s a lot cheesier when I think about it now, but back then, it made me feel like she really was watching us.”

Rin looked up to Suguro but was greeted with a beanie being pulled over his eyes. “I think it’s great that your dad did that.”

Suguro laughed as his friend tucked his ears into the hat, but was rewarded with his coat and mittens being flown into his face. “Hurry up, I wanna shoved snow down Shima’s pants.”  

They finished getting dressed and ran outside into the cold to join their friends. The second their feet touched the ground, they were bombarded with snowballs from all directions. Rin, being the little shit that he is, pulled Suguro in front of him to shield most of the attack, but only angered the boy in the process. When the raid stopped, everyone ran in separate ways to escape the doom that comes their way.

Suguro picked up a handful of snow and watched Rin do the same. He made like he was about to throw the ball at a passing Koneko, but instead smashed it in Rin’s face. He laughed as the boy screamed and tried to get the snow out of his shirt. An urge came over Suguro as he realized how cute Rin looked and the next thing he knew, he leaned down to peck Rin on the cheek then ran. He left the boy blushing and screaming his name.

Snow flew left and right as Suguro dashed away from Rin. He dodged snowballs, jumped over snow angels, and pushed Shima into a snowman (totally on accident, of course). He was about to turn and apologize to the guy when Rin jumped on his back like he wanted a piggyback ride. He was howling in triumph as he shoveled snow into Suguro’s coat. They stumbled along until he slipped on a patch of ice and went falling. The two landed in a fresh pile of snow to cushion their fall. When they made eye contact both busted out laughing at their appearances.  

“You look horrible,” said Rin.

“Yeah, well you don’t look too hot yourself, buddy.” Suguro flicked a speck of snow off his friend’s nose. As he stared at Rin, his mind went back to the kiss in the hallway. Those few precious moments they shared is burned into his heart as something Suguro will treasure. He knew he had a thing for the demon. He knew since the first day they met that this guy would become a very important person in his life. Either it’s as a best friend or something more, Rin will always be special to him.

“Hey,” said the boy next to him. “You okay? You’ve been lookin’ at me funny. If there something on my face?” He started patting his cheeks and forehead, looking for something that wasn’t there.

For the third time within the hour, Suguro found himself inclining his head towards Rin and kissing him. It caught the boy by surprise, but he responded by pulling the brown haired boy closer. It was short, just a few seconds, but it had butterflies exploding in Suguro’s stomach and made his head spin.

“Happy birthday Rin,” he said when they parted.

Rin just had a goofy smile on his face, one that made his eyes dance with joy. That single smile could make Suguro feel lighter than air. Just being around Rin could make him feel like the happiest person alive. He likes that feeling, he never wants to live a day without it.

Suguro was about to say something but was cut off when a snowball hit the back of his head. He whipped around to see, not just Shima, but Konekomaru also, holding their phones.

“You guys really are cute together,” said Koneko. “I’ll make sure to send both of you the pictures later.”

He gave them an innocent smile and walked away to join Shiemi in making a snowman that had a striking resemblance to Mephisto. The two then looked at Shima, who just shrugged and bolted in the direction he came from.

“We’re gonna get them, right?” Asked Rin as he stood and dusted off his pants.

“Maybe not Koneko,” responded Suguro. “But we can bury Shima neck deep in snow.”  

He was about run after their pink haired friend when Rin grabbed his jacket. He turned to find the boy looking to the left, trying to hide the blush that was present on his cheeks. Either it was from the cold, or because of the kiss, but right in that moment, he looked adorable.

“I just wanna say thanks.” Rin released the coat and stuffed hand in his pockets.

“For what?”

“For being in my life.”

Now it was Suguro’s turn to blush and this time, it wasn’t from the cold. “What’re ya thankin’ me for? I’m gonna be in your life, whether you like it not.”

That smile was back. No matter how many time he sees it, it will always make Suguro feel like that smile is reserved for him.

“Oh, one more thing.” Suguro was expecting another kiss, but he got a face full of snow instead. “You’re it!”

Rin sprinted pass him, laughing like a madman. Suguro shook his head free of snow then picked up a handful and chased the black haired idiot. While dodging snowballs, he thought he may not have gotten the perfect the gift for his best friend, but he did make up for it in more ways than one.

Nash:

surprisingly, Nash isn’t even that bad of guy off the court

he’s quite charming and can even be polite, it’s just his attitude on the court that is this foul

he doesn’t really mind that you’re as quiet as you are, he always has something to say

Tamaki Suoh is quite literally the epitome of a romantic

this guy is very fond of rose petals and decorates your place with them very often

on special ocasions, he takes you to France to show you around the places where he grew up

Kyoya:

to be frank, Kyoya doesn’t care if you’re shy or quiet, it is your personality and other defining traits that matter to him, like you patience and you kindness

he himself, doesn’t talk all too much when he isn’t needed to, so you two will spend a lot time just being with each other in comfortable silence

Kyoya knows exactly how to be romantic and a proper gentleman

in your everyday life, he does all the little things

holding doors open, pulling chairs back, kisses for parting, rose boquets

but he saves the really big things for special events

Kyoya understands your boundaries better than Tamaki and would never take you silence personal

in fact, he likes it that you don’t talk about unneccessary stuff all the time and don’t get involved in drama

appreciates the kindess you show towards everyone since it’s something that doesn’t always come naturally for him

since he normally works late you usually fall asleep before he does, so he’ll cover you up properly and kiss your temple before he continues typing

prefers to take you out to the city for dates to wander around and find something to do while you’re there

however, he also likes to just spend the day at home with you, talking and playing games

he understands very well if you don’t feel up to do something social, after all he spent a good part of his life only socializing with a single person

most of the time he’s the one who comes up with date ideas, but when you do happen to have one, he makes sure that you end up actually doing it

it’s kind of his way to show you it’s okay to speak your mind and that it’ll pay off when you do

gets you a lot of cute jewelery for gifts

Mori:

now, you’re just the perfect match for Mori

he is a man of few words, but talks quite a lot through his gestures and he likes it that the two of you can understand each other without talking

he still gets you expensive gifts, but doesn’t make a show out of it, like Tamaki would

his gifts are also less flashy and more small and thoughtful

loves when you play together with his two pets

always brings you back souvenirs when he was on vacation or business trips with his family and couldn’t take you with him for some reason

checks on you every morning by texting or calling you

even though he doesn’t talk too much, he often compliments you either on your apperance or some achievement you made

also smiles and ruffles your hair often, when you’re not in public accompanied with a kiss on the the forehead or lips

has a habbit of picking the things he knows you like out of his food and giving them to you because he loves to see you smile about it  

Nekozawa:

Nekozawa might not ppear like it on first glance, but he knows very well how to be sensitive and considerate of your feelings

always tries to get you interested in the things he likes (black magic), but wouldn’t push you

still, a lot of the dates he takes you to have some kind of connection to that

is thankful that you’re so patient and understanding of the fact that you can’t go out during daylight that easily because of his illness

due to this, for most dates you just stay at his mansion and eat there, watch movies and then go out for entertainment in the evening

naturally, going around outside with Nekozawa is bound to pull some attention towards the you, but when you’re with him, Nekozawa at least won’t dvertise black magic or any kind of coursed items

just like Tamaki, Nekozawa likes to take you to his ancestors’ home russia for vacation

cuddles you a lot when you’re at home and likes it when you play with his (real) hair 

Kasanoda:

so, we know Kasanoda is somewhat awkward when it comes to romance

but the fact that you’re a little shy and quiet makes it easier for him to approach you

 blushes a lot when you’re on dates

likes to show you his plants and the flowers he grows to explain you their meanings

also gives you flowers and little potted plants with certain meanings

likes to take you to the zoo (or, for the matter of fact, to different countries) to looks at animals

sometimes he has days when he doesn’t want to talk much, so he understands when you ahve this kind of days as well

texts you all the time when you’re away from each other

can realte to your shyness on a very personal level, since he is kind of shy as well

it makes it a little easier for the both of you to cope with it around each other though

wouldn’t admit it, but he loves it when you do something with his hair, like playing with it or doing braids

Aone:

you and Aone are very similar to each other, quiet and shy, but very patient and kind at heart

while you two are pretty quiet in general, you feel more comfortable talking around each other

is very careful when he hugs you or gives you pats on the back cause he used to be bad at keeping his power at bay

sometimes does romantic things for you out of the blue

the gifts he gets you are very thoughtful, showing he always listens to you when you talk to him about the things you like

picks you up bridal style when he thinks you’re tired

is very content when you fall asleep on his chest or shoulder

mostly lets you decide what to do on dates and where to go, but if you tell him to choose, he’ll most likely want to watch some sort of game and then take you to a restaurant he knows you like

is very happy that finally someone genuinely likes him without being intimidated by his looks

when he hugs you, he usually wraps his arms around your entire torso, lifting you up while doing so

leans down when he wants to be kissed

It was a strange sight, certainly, and one Okamura hadn't intended for anyone to bear witness to. She was dressed in a matching rose gold - hued nightgown and thin robe. Her lengthy waves were loose, and much of the make - up was gone from her fair face. The heiress was sat on the floor, legs folded and turned to the side ; her bent arms rested on the thighs of the Frump matriarch, who she appeared to be listening to with childish wonder. Grandmama paused her knitting at a break in her words and reached out to cup the girl's chin. For a moment, the old witch thought she could hear a purr from the endearing murderess at her knee.

Ever since the heiress had arrived among them, she seemed to fit in splendidly ( color and clothing preferences aside ). Okamura got along best with Melissa given their proximity to one another these last months -- really, the brunette was the younger woman's closest friend now -- but she held a special fondness in her heart for the Frump matriarch. The way Melissa's mother welcomed her into their family broke through to the heiress so very easily. It was clear Okamura was attached to her and enjoyed the occasional night she spent at Daigo and Melissa's residence.

Okamura was thoroughly lost in the gentle embrace from the elderly witch, sank into the woman's legs with her jewel - tone eyes shining. She failed to notice Melissa in the doorway ( as she could have been for some time ). It was only when Grandmama released her, set her project in her lap, and gestured for Melissa to join them that Okamura realized they were not alone.

A rare bit of color stained the heiress' cheeks. She pulled back sharply and folded her hands into her lap. Even around her dear companion, such open affection was still difficult to share that suddenly.

"Your mother," Okamura began, neglecting the familiar Mama for the time being, "was telling me more about the gifts the women in your bloodline have. -- it sounds incredible, monaka. To be a Frump." Okamura sighed playfully, canting her head. "How does it feel? to have access to magic like that, Melissa?"

unscripted asks . always accepting

Melissa had decided to walk around the house in hopes to soothe the rather agitated babies, hand over the growing belly where her twins were getting closer to their birth with each passing day. There was no doubt in the witch’s mind regarding her pregnancy - the Frump twins of that generation would soon arrive, and the brunette knew all would be well. It was difficult to put into words - even to Daigo - how she felt; it was as if Hecate herself had opened a direct link to the mortal blessed with such task.

The woman decided to go to her mother, then - not because she needed help with anything (it helped not being the first time with child, after all), but because Eudora had also carried Morticia and Melissa once; surely the experience had been similar. Perhaps the oldest witch in the house would know how to better convey her thoughts and impressions to her husband, but the idea of going straight to Eudora was put on hold the moment Melissa crossed the threshold to the bedroom.

Okamura looked like a young, incredibly fascinated girl at the knees of her mother - their bond was unexpected, but not surprising once she had befriended the heiress. Clearly, all Okamura Azumi had lacked was warmth and understanding - things anyone with the name ‘Frump’ or ‘Addams’ provided in abundance. She was a talented con artist, with a sharp mind and a preference for poison that Melissa wholeheartedly appreciated; perhaps the only few things they didn’t see eye to eye on were color palettes and the ideal duration of an engagement.

At the interruption from Eudora herself, Melissa walked into the room - she too had a robe on, albeit entirely black with elaborate designs of spider webs and eight-legged creatures etched onto the silk with silver thread, creating the right illusion for an inattentive mind. Her long hair was braided, a habit she cultivated for sleeping sometimes. Smiling, the younger witched went over the pair and pressed a kiss to the resident grandmother’s temple, finding herself a seat alongside Okamura despite the early stages of her pregnancy - she should enjoy the freedom of movement while it lasted, after all.

But at the blonde’s question, Melissa frowned - and bit her lip, honeyed eyes downcast as if she was searching for an answer. Eventually, she focused her gaze on her friend again, pulling a hand of hers into the two paler, colder of her own. “Mon coeur, please do not take this the wrong way - but it feels absolutely ordinary. I have never been anything but a witch - from the moment I was born until tonight... This is the only life I know and, indeed, one I adore.”

Melissa’s thumb started to move over the back of Okamura’s hand, attempting to inject additional warmth - she hoped the heiress was not disappointed in her frankness. “I know you have not been aware of the life of an outcast for long - but for me, this is all there is. Perhaps if I had married a different man, or had spent time outside with normal humans... Maybe then I would be able to see ourselves in the same light. But as far as we are concerned, we’re normal. Tish and I are no more or less remarkable than anyone else in our family or circles of friends.”

Eudora had paused her work (intended for the twins Melissa was expecting) to watch the two friends chatting, and briefly nodded with a knowing smile. A hand went out to gently tap her own daughter over the head, a gesture from the time the brunette was a small spiderling herself. Chuckling, the witch offered a kiss to her mother in return, moving only her face and pressing lips together in an airy gesture that was a trademark of hers (and Morticia as well).

“You are, by far, the most intriguing and special one, Azumi. All the magic in the world couldn’t make most of our neighbors feel at ease among us and yet you fit here like heavy rain on a funeral,” Melissa winked at Okamura, meaning each and every word, “I know maman agrees - you are one of us, chérie. You may lack the name, but never the attitude.”

2018 * - okamura and akiyama begin an on - again, off - again relationship that is at first characterized by casual sex and the desire to know each other. this string of supposed meetings in the name of a good time slowly evolves into something more as neither party can seem to formally stop contacting the other or find interest in anyone else.

2020 * - daigo dojima returns to kamurocho and into the arms of his love, melissa, following a lengthy absence. okamura and akiyama are a perplexing sight for the ex - yakuza : not committed to any label, but regularly attached and very close. 

2021 * - akiyama asks okamura if she will be his girlfriend at the western / u.s. wedding of melissa and daigo dojima. this is greeted ecstatically by the bride and groom, who have been not - so - secretly cheering the couple on from the sidelines.

2025 * - shun akiyama ( 47 ) and azumi okamura ( 41 ) secretly elope and are legally married. this event comes mainly in response to their tentative interest in starting a family of their own through adoption, which is not possible in japan if a couple is not wed.

2028 ** - in a bid for self - preservation, niran moved himself onto the streets of little asia to avoid his abusive birth father ( age 6 ). he promptly became the terror of the neighborhood and engaged in pickpocketing and petty theft regularly. niran also riled up the other children who faced a similar plight as him, much to local police displeasure, and was always identified as the ringleader of this ragtag group.
