And now the three of them are finally together ✨

[rebornologist]

Hi, I just read your college headcanon thing and I'm just wondering if you have any about what Reborn, viper, Collenelo & Lal and Skull are doing during this! Or of them during their college years!!

Literally any excuse to write about Mammon, I will take... these will likely be shorter because I'll do a bit of both! ♡ Thank you for suggesting arcobaleno content I am so so in love w them all xx

♡ The Arcobaleno in University*:･ﾟ✧

*kinda

༚✧⁺˳₊˚‿︵‿︵‿୨୧ · ˳ · ♡ · ˳ · ୨୧‿︵‿︵‿˚₊˳⁺✧༚

As for while the main cast (Tsuna & co.) are trudging through their years in uni, Reborn has grown a considerable amount, and has kind of let Tsuna on a longer kitestring than before; He still offers his absolutely unhinged tutoring services, and threatens Tsuna that if he doesn't sit down and study to do well in college, he is doomed to having no skills outside of being the 10th generation Vongola family boss lolol

Mammon literally doesn't have to worry about anyone in uni lolol I don't think they're close to anyone who would go to university, maybe Fran but they genuinely could care less about how his studies are going; Maybe if Fran was an accounting/econ major and Mammon considered him a good asset for accumulating wealth.... but we all know Fran's an art or language student or some shit so there's no way in hell

Colonnello goes to all of the sports events to cheer on Yamamoto and Ryohei and literally everyone else; Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if he was a PE instructor or decides to be a kinesiology/athletics/nutrition related instructor at some point, he's got time...

Lal doesn't feel as much obligation towards watching over Tsuna & co. anymore at this point, but she gives them shit about their studies sometimes whenever they do see her; Duuuude maybe Colonnello's a prof somewhere and she's the mysterious hot person that visits him during his breaks a little too often and the students are definitely speculating LOL (ColoLal is literally the "prof who overshares" and "brick wall prof" ship dynamic and I love them for it)

Skull is pretty involved with Enma and the Simon bbies in uni!! He goes to any of their sporting events or extracurriculars that they want him to witness bahahaha; Aside from that though, university was never his thing..

Now, as for a little... ♡ College Arcobaleno AU *:･ﾟ✧

♡ Reborn

That is the face of an evil evil business major idc; Something like international business or dareisay a double major into political science as well..

He's so intimidating but also like tall and handsome and such a head turner when he struts around campus; He dresses well and he knows it, always experimenting with fashion and is the definition of hottie walking to his next class in a timely manner, with his expensive ass fair trade organic small batch coffee in hand

Would probably be a frat boy at some point in his college career, he's terrifying and notorious for being brutal with incoming members (hazing isn't fun, y'all); He thinks it's all in good fun though hmmmm.. evil

He somehow has so much time it's like he has infinite time he's that friend that's taking all these classes and balancing work and clubs and socializing, nobody knows how he does it; He's secretly running on basically no sleep, just pure survival instinct

He's in a lot of clubs, his favorite is the costume making or fashion club, he's not the best with sewing, but he loves the people there and they love him as well; He's their bestie and model of choice and he has a good eye for design

He has a creative knack and it's his destressing outlet but he tends to ignore it, why are youuu doing polisci of all things, hardass :\

And of course his favorite class was the one solely about coffee (the fact that those exist @ my school is wild but so so wonderful)

♡ Esper Mammon

Literally why would Mammon be in university it's expensive???

In the case that higher education is not exorbitantly priced and Mammon is attending such an institution..

They literally have purple hair and pronouns BAHAHAH They're absolutely styling on everyone in class all the time, but in a dark brooding and emo way

Says the bare minimum and does just what they need to pass their classes, spare time is spent grinding their side hustles for moneyyy

They're pretty quiet and generally keep to themselves, but won't hesitate to speak to people when spoken to or interacted with

Mammon studies econ or something like that because eughh money money money, but they also have a soft spot for studying certain animals

They got closer to Reborn because they were in the same herpetology course, and had some heated debates over whether the frog or the lizard was superior; They study together sometimes, people think they're dating but they're literally just two hot people sitting next to each other reading up on caecilian life cycles

Mammon definitely has kind of a weird room, with pink lights set up for exotic plants they got really into taking care of at some point, some frogs in a tank somewhere, it's also quite dim in there for no good reason

♡ Colonnello

Gym rat

University is but an extra expensive gym membership to him

He's the type to bring coffee or snacks in to a friend's class, sneaking in through the back with that stupid little grin

Yeah, he knows the effect he has on people, his eyes pierce through hearts brooo it's insane

People assume he's involved with Lal and kind of back off, they probably founded a little paintballing club and a majority of their initial recruitments were just people who thought they were hot and came up to them

He studies something super niche like kinesthetics or whatever goes into physical therapy; He's fascinated by the works of the body and actually is so sweet for wanting to use his experience to help others live their best lives

He volunteers at the raptor center because I said so and that's where he met his best bird friend Falco; He also goes birdwatching at the crack ass of dawn, the perfect time for him to start his morning run before going to the gym or something ashdhsjdf idk how people do this shit broe

Him and Reborn have friend groups that somehow merged and they hated each other's guts since the moment they met each other, they probably fought at some point idk and then became like rival besties LOL the kind where they compete with each other in a not so serious way to keep themselves motivated

Reborn admittedly loves paintballing with him <3

♡ Lal Mirch

Not a gym rat

Either has a double major or minor in women's studies, she's too much of a baddie to not; She's a physics/engineering student though, if not something else hot and sexy like biochem or chemeng...

A substantial number of people in her classes have the hots for her because of the skewed sex ratio in stem especially engineering college life Lal is the hottest bitch on campus

She's got blue light glasses (nerd) and usually shows up to class right on time with sweatpants and a tank top, maybe a zip-up hoodie (my bets are that it's Colonnello's hehe) if there's a breeze outside

She's probably yet another busybody that somehow has time for everything; College level volleyball or softball, probably, and probably some internships on top of her classes

Lal gets along surprisingly well with Mammon, they both begrudgingly respect each other's interest in insects

She definitely started getting tattoos in her college years, she wasn't allowed to even think of them before that, but she knew that once she got out into the world on her own she would adorn herself with so much wearable art

She's got mad rbf to the point where other students are intimidated to even speak to her, sometimes even intimidating to instructors

She's usually in a neutral or even decent mood though, she's quite blunt and straightforward with things, but she's so kind and helpful to anyone who dares to ask her for help

♡ Skull

Why is he even here he doesn't know why he's here

He's here because there are hot girls on campus who look at him when he pulls up on his motorcycle, that is all

Imagine his surprise when he realizes he has to do work to stay in uni, not just hang out and be hot and get girls

College was his peak and his prime for getting his hair cut and dyed spontaneously, getting a million new piercings, etc.; A good amount of these body modifications are done with friends or by friends

He's punk af and loves going to yard shows, maybe house parties

Frat people love him because he has the most insane party tricks, being basically invincible

I like imagining that Colonnello and Skull have lived together at some point and Colonnello has a stockpile of energy drinks; Skull makes great use of that stockpile as well when he's furiously guzzling those electrolytes the morning after to fight off his hangovers (oh Skull my dear it doesn’t work that way lol)

His handwriting is so messy yo whenever he bothers to actually take notes, he'll look back on them and he isn't even 100% sure what he wrote orz

This man cannot cook for his life and became the errand boy just getting groceries for the house so that his dear roommates can make dinner LOL He doesn't mind though :)

Everything that I write about Mammon is sooo friggin self-indulgent, and this is my worst offense. I love reptiles and insects and they do too now I don't make the rules :) Also I literally have a crush on Lal don't come for me if she was @ my uni I'd propose on the spot move aside 'Nello

Civilian File: Yasuko Kurakimichi

Full Name: Yasuko Kurakimichi

Age: 2 (Main timeline), 20 (Young Heroes AU), Late 20s or early 30s (BNHA Next Gen)

Gender: Non binary (She/They)

Nationality: Japan

Ethnicity: Korean/Spanish/Japanese

Occupation: Student, waitress, custom dress maker (later)

Affiliation(s): Miss Maid Cafe

Description:

Design notes:

I know I haven't showed their father Hypnos yet but you can imagine his design based on the eyes alone.

Yasuko's sclera is also purple like his.

Is winged and her wings look like the night sky.

Personality: While kind hearted and gentle, Yasuko often feels like society pressures them into following their parents' heroic footsteps when that's not what she wants. This deviation has led to them getting much hate from people who were excited to see them as a sidekick to their parents, Hypnos (Yumeo Kurakimichi) and Pasithea (Seo-yeon Kurakimichi).

Though she loves and adores their parents and family, knowing they'd never do anything to harm them. Instead, Yasuko prefers a simple and quiet life away from the spotlight.

Yasuko loves any and all forms of art, especially fashion. She grew up reading fashion magazines and taping pictures of models wearing cool and colorful clothes on their wall. She especially liked the dresses female characters in movies would wear, fueling their passion to become a dress maker.

Quirk: Dreamland

Yasuko can produce an indigo colored sand that allows them and others to live out their greatest dreams. It is benevolent in nature, much like Pasithea's.

Family:

Yumeo Kurakimichi | Hypnos

Seo-yeon/Utau Kurakimichi (nee Yun/Kyusoku) | Pasithea (Mother)

Suima Kurakimichi (Younger brother)

Nemuriko Kurakimichi (Younger sister)

Seo-Hyeon Yun | Nightmare I (Aunt; Deceased)

Yun | Nightmare II (Cousin)

Ismat Yun | Embalmer (Cousin)

Kurakimichi Clan (Relatives)

Enma & Yomijin Kurakimichi (Ancestors)

Paired with: TBA (Anyone wanna have a go with them?)

Disclaimer: Don't own KHR.

.

Enma jolted awake.

He blearily looked around him, noting the great mountain rising in front of him, the river a couple of feet in front of him, situated between him and the mountain side, and the sand beneath his fingers. Just where was he? And how did he get here?

He braced himself on his hands and knees to raise himself up, going slowly to accommodate his sluggishness and dizziness.

He stretched and let out a jaw-cracking yawn; just how long had he been asleep here?

There was a rustling in the bushes behind him, making him snap into awareness and warily eye the forest that was behind him. Another rustle, this time accompanied by a low growl, and Enma stepped backwards, one foot slipping into the shallow edge of the river.

Silence stretched for what appeared to be an eternity; Enma's heart was beating furiously. Just what was going on? Who- or rather, what else was there with him-

There was a great splash from the river and a loud growl from behind him.

Enma didn't even look behind him before he shot off into the forest, chased by the sounds of rustling bushes and loud growls-

-and footsteps not his own.

There was a voice calling out and Enma was too terrified to stop and listen.

Enma kept on running and the voice grew closer and closer.

"Hey! Wait!" A hand shot up from somewhere nearby and Enma jumped in surprise. His foot caught on something on the ground and he almost fell over.

The hand grabbed him, suspending him in mid-air.

Enma turned slowly towards the person who caught him, to see a young man with messy, purple hair and purple eyes.

The man huffed, looking vaguely annoyed, but mostly alarmed, "I'm not going to hurt you. Actually, I've been searching through the forest for hours now and you're the first person I came across."

Enma must have given him a confused look, because he elaborated, "I'm Skull, a freelancer, I'm on a job for the Sky Temple."

Enma relaxed. Just a freelancer on a job for the Sky Temple. The knot in his chest unraveled from relief. He was safe if the Sky Temple was involve-

The Sky Temple? Enma's eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"Yeah, kid, the Sky Temple." (Did he just say it out loud?) Skull was giving him a concerned look, "Everyone knows about the Temples,"

"No, that's not…" Enma trailed off as he wracked his brain for information; he frustratingly came up blank, "I know about the Temples, it's just! I can't remember!" No matter how hard he tried to dredge up anything he knew about the subject, he couldn't find anything more than a vague sense of recognition.

"That's worrying." Skull let go of Enma and put his fists on his hips, "I think I'm going to stop my search for the day and take you to the land; we should have you checked over if you can't remember the freaking Sky Temple. There is no way you're that sheltered. You could have amnesia and that requires you going to one of the cities for medical attention." Skull hummed thoughtfully, "I forgot to ask, what’s your name?"

"I'm Enma."

"Of?"

"Of?" Enma parroted, confused.

"Yeah, of which town, family?"

Enma opened his mouth to respond, the name on the tip of his tongue, before he stopped, suddenly realizing that he didn't remember.

Skull observed him carefully, "Can't remember?"

Enma nodded mutely.

"How old are you?"

"Eighteen, nineteen? I think?"

"Do you know where we are?"

A shake.

"Where you last were?"

Another shake.

"What's the last thing you remember?"

Enma focused on his memories, a sea of blurry images coalesced together into a great fog of muted colors and sounds.

What was the last thing he remembered?

There were screams; there was fire; there was the sound and feel of crystals, shattered and whole, clinking on the ground; there was blood so much blood (too much blood); there was a great pair of huge doors opening and the overwhelming sense of panic; there was painpainpain and shocked amber eyes and oh god why did it happen how did it happen-

"Breathe!" There was a pair of hands grasping his shoulders and a voice talking to him.

Enma blinked, his surroundings coming back into focus, his vision obstructed by a concerned face.

"Skull?"

"Yeah. I thought I lost you there for a second."Skull inhaled, "I should really take you to one of the Temples as soon as possible."

Skull pulled a silent Enma with him through the forest, keeping an eye on him and a hand holding onto him, as if afraid Enma would slip away at the first opportunity.

Enma was lost. He was missing something, someone, very important to him. Someone he needed to search for, but didn't know where to start looking.

Actually, no, Enma blinked, he knew where to look. He needed to go to the Sky Temple. Something in him resonated with the name, it probably meant something.

(He hoped it meant something.)

He didn't know why he was- wherever he was, why he was missing a good chunk of his memory, why it hurt to try to remember by himself, why he felt a vague sense of urgency, pushing him to turn back the way he came and go look- look for what, he didn't know.

So many things he didn't know anything about aside from vague echoes, echoes that sent his heart hammering in his chest in fear and longing and terror and too many feelings to name (too many feelings filling his chest until it felt like it would burst any minute).

What was he supposed to do now?

"Alright, be careful while stepping into the boat. Don't want you to fall over."

Enma was snapped from his thoughts by Skull's voice as Skull guided him to a simple wooden boat, connected to what looked like a huge octopus.

Enma blinked in shock, but stepped into the boat, closely followed by Skull, who was carefully observing him.

Enma had a feeling that his zoning out didn't go unnoticed.

"We'll be heading to the land now."

"Can we-" Enma licked his lips, fists clenched, "Can we go to the Sky Temple?"

"Sure. I was planning to go there and tell them about you anyway. After all, they were the ones who sent me here in the first place."

Enma settled down as the boat moved, departing from the island and heading towards the land rising on the other side of the sea.

Enma couldn't help but look back at the island he was leaving behind, a tremendous feeling of loss and melancholy filling him to the brim.

He blinked away tears he didn't know were gathering in his eyes and prepared himself for the journey.

.

It took them until sunset to reach the land.

Enma stepped out of the boat and stretched before he turned to look at Skull who was taking his octopus, Oodaku, out of the water, and smiled as Skull grinned and cooed at the now shrunken octopus. Turning to look around him, he took note of his surroundings as he scoured through what he could remember to figure out the way to the Sky Temple.

He and Skull were on the docks; off to the side, appearing to be raised in the sea and only connected to the land with a bridge, was the Sea Temple with its circular shape, many outer columns and windows, and glass dome with a wave-like design.

Enma couldn't remember ever seeing it in person before, but he remembered the details of its description. Which meant…

His thoughts whirred as his eyes trailed off to the left, looking across the nearby buildings and up the rising land to catch sight of the Light Temple in the distance with its unique shape resembling a staircase as it accommodated the rise of land. His eyes then shot off to the highest point in the land, where he caught sight of the silhouette of a building right at the top.

The Sky Temple.

His breath caught in his throat; so close, yet so far.

(He wished he knew what he was so eager to see.)

A strong gust of wind whipped around him and he put arm up to his face as a shield.

"What…"

"Huh." Enma heard Skull say, "We're in luck. We arrived just in time to catch up with the Vongola's air patrol."

Air patrol? Enma removed his arm when the wind died down and gaped at the sight in front of him: a big winged ship was suspended in mid air above the sea and close enough to the port they could probably use a gangplank to move between the ship and the land.

"What is that?"

"That's the Vongola's airship. They use it to patrol the border of the land and take a look around at the Walls."

"And we're in luck, why?"

"The Sky Temple is in Vongola City, their city, they usually take passengers with them to the town during this time. Their patrol would now take them around the island again before they are finished, so if anyone was out here by sunset and needed to go to Vongola City, they'd take them."

As Enma guessed, the ship extended a gangplank down to the ports and a black-haired man, who appeared to be in his late twenties, with pupil-less green eyes walked down it towards the two.

"Hey, Lambo." Skull waved, "You have space for the three of us?"

Lambo waved lazily at them, "Sure, follow me."

With that said, he turned around and returned to the ship, followed by Enma, Skull and Oodaku.

(The ship felt surprisingly empty when Enma stepped on board, he had expected there be more people for a patrol on a big flying ship.)

A kind woman called Chrome with purple hair and a pair of pupil-less, purple eyes showed him around the ship, pointing out where the guests cabins where and where the crew's cabins where, while warning him against venturing into the part the crew stayed in.

"Usually, we'd let our passengers come and go as they please but our boss is in a bad mood and wants to be left alone, do you understand?" She looked at him with stern eyes.

"Of course, ma'am." Enma suppressed the urge to shiver under the veiled promises of pain he saw in Chrome's eyes. It was probably for the best to squash down his urge to explore.

"Good." She smiled lightly at him before she left him to his own devices.

Enma found himself back on the deck, eyes trained on the horizon where the great Walls rose, separating them from whatever it was on the other side.

"Please tell me that you at least remember the Walls."

Enma blinked at Skull, who had sidled up to him, Oodaku draped over a shoulder, "Of course I do. Who doesn't know about the Walls? They've always been there."

"Kind of makes you wonder what they're doing there, doesn't it?"

Enma opened his mouth to respond before he closed it. He didn't know why, but the question tugged at something inside of him, something heavy and bound with thick chains, something that tasted bitter in his mouth.

Phantom pain shot through his nerves and his chest ached; he clenched his hands on the railing he was leaning on to make sure he wouldn't tip over.

"You okay?"

"Yeah, just… Nothing, it was nothing."

Skull looked skeptical, seconds away from questioning Enma.

Luckily, Lambo had picked that moment to tell them that they were going to land.

.

Enma walked with as much speed as he could muster down the gangplank, making sure he won't fall over, ignoring the feeling of eyes on his back and the gnawing sense of loss in the pit of his stomach.

Enma was getting sick of it: all of his sudden emotional swings, launching from one end to the other, wearing his skin, stretching it and returning it to him too big and frayed around the edges.

He wished he could make sense of them, but they refused to cooperate, and his vague memories weren't helping at all.

He picked a random direction and aimlessly wandered, still distracted by his emotions. But not too distracted to not notice Skull's footsteps following after him and assuring him that he wasn't going the wrong way.

Around five minutes of silence passed before Skull spoke up, "Sorry if I said anything that bothered you."

Enma blinked in shock as he stared at a serious Skull, "But you… didn't?"

Skull squinted at him, "It sure looked like I ran you through with a wooden log back there."

"No, that was-" Enma bit his lips, "-just my general confusion. And my mood swings. I don't even know why I have mood swings. They feel too tiring, I don't think I'd ever get used to them. I'm not even sure if I'm the type of person to have mood swings!" Enma dragged his hands down his face, suddenly tired, "Look at me! Doing it again! Why am I so riled up?! Ugh."

Skull quirked a humorless smile in Enma's direction, "Chin up, you may feel better after we get you to the Temple where you can rest for the night."

Enma sighed, "Sure. Thank you for putting up with me."

Skull waved him off, "No need to thank me for it."

Enma begged to differ; he was already feeling much better with Skull's quiet company.

The rest of the walk towards the Sky Temple passed by in a much lighter atmosphere.

.

Enma had guessed that the Sky Temple was going to be special, due to his surprising insistence on travelling there.

He was already feeling hidden burdens on his shoulders start to peel away from him the moment he crossed the bridge leading to the Temple's plot of land.

There was something about the Temple's aura that made him feel light, safe, protected.

It felt like coming home.

A sense of melancholy descended upon him and he turned to look the other way, down to where the Sea Temple stood, across the great expanse of water and to the dark shape of the island he woke up on.

With difficulty, he wrenched his eyes away and pulled himself towards the Temple's entrance.

Skull preceded him, opening the door and ushering Enma in.

Entering the building itself encompassed him with indescribable emotions; he was happy, content, eager, excited.

Maybe, hopefully, he'd find answers here.

"Ah, welcome." A soft voice echoed through the main hall and Enma turned to see a figure heading towards him and Skull, dressed in a white robe that flowed down their figure, draped across their body in a way that didn't give away any hint to what was underneath, the sleeves were quite long and the hood was wide and fell over their face; the robe had orange lines descending from their shoulders and neckline until the end of their sleeves and around what Enma estimated to be the ribcage; the hood had similar orange lines going down the sides with an orange hexagon in the center.  

"Skull and guest, we've been expecting you."

"Head Priest." Skull inclined his head and then waved in Enma's direction, "As you requested, I went looking through the island. So far, I've only searched through a part of the forest. I found him, Enma, there. He seems to be missing a chunk of his memories."

The Head Priest cocked their head to the side, "Enma will be welcome here to sort his affairs. We may even be able to help him. Anything else?"

"Yeah, I'll be going back tomorrow. You don't mind if I stay the night, do you?"

"Oh no." The Head Priest waved a hand, "You know you're always welcome here."

The Head Priest then gestured behind them, "Follow me, I'll show you to some of our empty rooms."

The Head Priest had the two settled for the night and had a meal brought to them in moments, leaving Enma blinking at the efficiency and speed.

Skull chuckled at the slight shock on Enma's face, "It looks like they're a bit over-eager to have you around."

"Huh, why would they?"

Skull shrugged, "It could be anything from being curious or…" He trailed off, zoning out a bit, as if thinking about what else he was about to say, "How about you ask them about that tomorrow? For now, let's eat and go to sleep."

Steal Thy Hearts! A Persona 5 AU

You thought the Phantom Thieves of Hearts were the only ones traveling Mementos and stealing hearts? Think again! There are more hearts that need to be changed and the Phantom Thieves can only steal so much of them.

However, they seem to show a level of disdain towards the Carmine Blades, but they occasionally clash with the Phantom Thieves and Shadow Hunters for some unknown reason. Thus, they are considered the ‘Wild Card’ (pun intended) counterpart to the Phantom Thieves.

The Ritual

Kirk and Spock end up in ancient Vulcan, long before Surak teachings, an important ancestral ritual is about to happen and the performer has become ill. Not that surprisingly Spock is well-versed in the long forgotten dance and he's chosen to perform by the very surprised eyes of Jim.
