WHEN I CAN’T FALL ASLEEP

synopsis: he’s never there, and you’re sick of it. ⌙ 1.0k

pairing: bf!shiroiwa ruki x fem!reader

genre: angst

warnings/tags: ruki’s pretty toxic, lashing out, language, hurt and no comfort, guys idk [ignore typos]

a/n: haven’t written angst in a while so here y’all go….user kimakento angst return soon perhaps??

it happened again.

it was the fourth time in a row. despite that, here you were, waiting in your shared apartment; akin to a kicked puppy. a shaky breath escaped your lips as you leaned into the soft couch.

your thoughts were scattered, making your head reel. but that wasn’t the only thing you fought. slumber called your name — and of course it would, it was half-past three in the morning — yet you had seemed to escape it.

‘where was he?’ was the question that filled your thoughts. your living room was dark, the bright lights being turned off only a couple minutes ago; perhaps because you’d always felt like you could face anything in the dark ever since childhood. it shielded you. from what exactly, you weren’t entirely sure.

interrupting your thoughts, a loud jingle echoed from outside only moments later — a bunch of keys rattling while one turned in the lock. your breath hitched slightly, anticipating the man you’d waited so long for, but the usual excitement you felt whenever he stepped in never came.

you froze in your spot when the door closed shut again.

all you could decipher were the negative emotions: fatigue, frustration and sadness. his light footsteps moved closer, padding through the hallway.

were you really such an insignificant part of his life? who were you to him? did he even value you as his girlfriend?

the sound of the switch being flipped echoed through the room, and in an instant, the sudden brightness of the lights flooded the space, overwhelming your senses. it felt as though the light was piercing through the darkness, momentarily blinding you and forcing you to squint as your eyes adjusted.

but the expression clouding ruki’s face was all too familiar; a mix of surprise but firmness.

“why’re you up?” the sentence was sharp, cutting through your senses immediately. he stood in-front of you, clad in casual clothes; sweatpants and a black hoodie. “it’s late.”

you could imagine where the conversation was headed. you could’ve somehow avoid it by acting complacent and shutting your mouth. but no, you were so tired. tired of being the one disregarded and never getting a say. tired of the one he never even gave a slightest damn about.

“i was waiting for you.” you said. “you know, like how a normal girlfriend would do.”

two fingers pinched the bridge of his nose. “what are you getting at?”

”you’ve been coming home late.”

“so? you know i’m an idol. i have things to do. i work late sometimes.”

he didn’t get it. and he wasn’t trying to.

you insisted once again. “but it’s not just that, ruki. you missed our second anniversary last week and you were a no-show for our date night, with no explanation, i might add.”

ruki watched as you stood up, with hands on hips.

“this again?”

“huh?” you looked up at him in confusion.

“you being needy.” the man’s voice was cold. “i just said i’m a fucking idol. this kinda stuff just happens. you knew that before we started dating, [name].”

“wow.” you blinked once, then twice in utter disbelief. “just wow. why is it whenever i talk about what i’m feeling that it’s made out to be nothing? i’m a person too. fucking hell, ruki.” when you stepped closer to him, that absent look only served your exasperation.

“stop this. why do you always do this? it’s always me being painted out as the bad guy, you’re just unbearable at this point. do you want me to throw everything away for you? well, i'm sorry, but it's not my fault that you're acting so goddamn crazy over something so stupid.” he snapped.

in that moment, you came to a huge realisation. shiroiwa ruki had never cared enough to put you first; he never would. there was no use in still attempting to help your boyfriend see what he refused to and stayed blissfully ignorant to, but the lump in your throat persisted, reminding you of one thing; detaching yourself from someone that you held love towards pained you. however was it ever worth it if you were being hurt in the process?

‘was love worth it anymore?’ seemed like the right question. yet, you didn’t know.

“that’s not what this is about, and you know it.” there was a bitter taste in your mouth that you tried to swallow back thickly. “there’s only so much i can take.” your voice dwindled with every word.

ruki groaned, visibly frustrated. with his brows knit, he stood his ground.

“why do you always have to be so emotional, huh? i don’t owe you my life just cause we’re together. you’re just being unreasonable! i have a job and i also have duties to fulfil towards it.”

“so do i? but you don’t even do the bare minimum anymore. you never— i’m the one keeping this relationship afloat even when it feels like i’m sinking.” you paused and met his eyes, reading the crazed look that painted them. “i will not do that to myself anymore— putting you or the relationship you clearly don’t want above myself.”

“what?” the man’s tone had softened now.

“i’m done, ruki.” your voice broke. “i can’t deal with all this— you anymore.”

you walked away from him, grabbing a coat, awkwardly moving to put it on with one hand. your returned to pocket your phone and look at him.

but once ruki’s lips part, struggling to find the words. “[name]—“

“don’t bother.” you cut him off harshly. “i’ll come back to get all my stuff back when i’ve calmed down.”

“you can’t just leave. can’t we just handle this like adults?”

“believe me, i’ve tried one too many times.”

he was turned towards you now, frantically watching as you moved to leave. “but—“

“please don’t.” a whispered plead.

trudging your feet towards the door, you slip on your shoes, and collect your car keys from the hanger near it.

and with one last glance around, you stepped foot outside, the harsh breeze wisping your way.

reblogs are heavily appreciated!

[failing-to-write-again]

What would it be like waking up with Shu, Reiji, or Ruki?

So sorry I didn't see this Tumblr did not send me a notification!

But thank you for the ask and I will answer all three!!!

Under the cut because my writing is long and I might be mildly suggestive but nothing explicit!

Shu

I imagine waking with Shu would feel like a Saturday morning in Winter, where the heating is on and your bed is so warm and outside it's a cool snowy light.

Rolling over and feeling the slight chill of the vampire, his chest cool but the arm you slept on warmed by your body heat.

I think Shu, as a more subtle romantic, would enjoy like sleeping naked or at least shirtless with you. While throwing perverted comments around to deflect from showing his true sappy side, yet never actually going further then running his fingers along your spine as he holds you against himself slowly heating up.

Hearing him deeply inhale and stir as he feels your movement, eyes opening slightly and smiling before nuzzling between the pillows and your hair. A grumble of protest at having been disturbed.

If it is a weekend or holiday you give in easily resettling into the peaceful feeling of simple having skin contact with someone so intimately. Shu lifting the covers to cover you more as goosebumps cover your body slightly due to his lower body temperature.

A personal head cannon is that after you began to have an actual close relationship he would have servants bring hot water bottles to your room close to bed so you didn't have to be as effected by his chill. However by morning the once warm devices are now useless, yet he's less cold after a night of having you next to him.

Eventually you may try coax him awake. As he hides himself against your neck, feeling him voice complaints in a gravelly morning voice against your skin.

"My princess is so pushy, just rest order the servants to do the stupid errands. They're yours now."

Reiji

Reiji could go one of two ways depending on the day. A busy day or a holiday. Either way I think his room would feel fresh but still warm to wake in.

On the average day Reiji wakes you either accidentally as he gets dressed and ready for the day, or with a drink and some breakfast delivered personally to your room. He claims it's to prevent your morning mood effecting the household but it is actually to just keep you to himself a moment longer even if it's while you're both busy preparing for a long day ahead.

He runs his fingers through your hair to wake you, slowly massaging your scalp. You'd be surprised that it doesn't put you deeper asleep.

On the rare days he doesn't feel the need to wake as early he's sensual and soft. Rare for someone as prim and proper as him.

It's canon from the sleeping with a vampire audios that Reiji wears silk pajamas and bed sheets with high quality mattresses. I see him ordering you matching pajamas and night dresses in similar designs to his and he secretly waits until you get yours on before changing. He refused to admit when he's sweet. He melts when you sleep in his shirt after nightly romps in the sheets.

Ever the leading partner, you wake up being spooned by him either facing him or with you back against his chest and his face buried in your hair. You used to worry about it irritating him at first until one night you felt him nuzzle against it intentionally as he smelt the shampoo you had recently used.

Like Shu I feel he would do things to motivate the temperature difference. However maybe an electric blanket or a potion that will last the entire night.

Deepest as morning voice, grainy too completely unlike his firm even tone when awake. It's a personal side only you see. And forget Shu being the lazy one when Reiji has the time to sleep in with you. The man is begging for 5 more minutes.

"My love, stay...hm? Need a drink? I left one on the nightstand. ... You can't reach it?... Cruel woman treating your lover like this."

Ruki

Ruki's room must smell like candles and new books. A nice toasty feeling to wake to.

Clingy is the best way to describe how I feel he sleeps. So scared you may slip through his fingers or leave like others before, Ruki holds you close as you sleep.

I imagine he sleeps on his stomach due to having to sleep like that for so long after he initially got the scars on his back. His arm around your waist and head turned to rest abobe your shoulder.

The exception being when he reads a book to help you sleep. You lay, head against his chest or in his lap as he sits against a pile of pillows. You wake to his head against yours and the book left open on his lap as his arms encircle you.

Ever the slight sadist, on days you need to be up faster he might lightly pinch your sides to wake you. Chuckling as you squirm and complain at the rude awakening. Kissing you forehead in apology.

During nights where he has particularly bad nightmares you may have to wake him. Holding him against your chest and brushing through his hair as you comfort him best you can. You don't know when you both nod back off but you wake the next day to him still there resting more peaceful than ever. That being said night terrors have decreased drastically since you began to share a bed.

After you both wake up properly he holds you in his lap as you discuss your plans for the day. He takes his time laying kisses along your shoulders and down your sternum, a personal good luck ritual that makes the day a little easier to begin.

"Hm... where do you think your going? I assume like me you don't want to leave my side yet. Especially with those fingers tracing along my body. How shameless."

Can you write a part 2 about these headcannons but with the mukami brothers

STEALING YUI'S SIBLING — PLATONIC YANDERE MUKAMIS

Pairing: Platonic! Mukami brothers (separate) x gn! reader

Sakamaki Version: click here!

Format: Headcanons

WARNING(S): Yandere themes, unhealthy, not proofread

Want more Diabolik lovers? → Masterlist! ★

RUKI MUKAMI

Initially, Ruki only allowed you to accompany your sister since she's “Eve”. And clearly, there was no way she'd go without you. Therefore, he provides you every basic necessity a human could possibly need, but that's it. The only time Ruki had a full conversation with you was when you needed help with your homework. To which, he reluctantly decided to help you with.

Sooner than later, you found yourself traveling to Ruki's study weekly in hopes for some afternoon tutoring. Before you knew it, those weekly sessions turned into daily ones; I suppose you can say he's gotten quite attached to your presence. Now, it's become a requirement. Studying for at least three hours a night, by his side, in his library. And dear, there's no reason to ask anyone else for help; you don't need it! After all, Ruki is not one to stray away from a routine.

“You didn't attend yesterday's session, is something the matter? Are you unwell? Or perhaps it's Yui's doing? Even so, try to attend every day or there will be consequences.”

KOU MUKAMI

Kou is an interesting case. Sure, he's nice to you upon your arrival just as he was with a certain blonde. However, the idol took no real interest in anything involving you. That was until Ruki put him on “Child Duty” for the evening. I mean, come on, you're a teen not a damn fetus! As you'd imagine, he was anything but pleased. Surprisingly enough, Kou started a conversation with you, which he found himself thoroughly enjoying. But something tells me those blue eyes have been peering right through you!

There you were seared across from him, your hands neatly tucked in your lap as Kou gently applied the thin mask to your face. It smelt of petals and peaches. Refreshing, and yet you couldn't stop the shiver that wrecked your being upon its contact. Yes, refreshing but also cold. A low snort slipped past his lips as he reached to pinch your cheeks between his thumb and index finger. Perhaps even Kou can find some comfort within your genuine emotions (something you and Yui share).

“Wah~! Filming took absolutely forever today. I even had to skip put on picking you up today, y'know? Hehe, but fret no longer, the amazing Kou Mukami is here to cure your boredom!”

YUMA MUKAMI

I suppose you aren't entirely useless. Having an extra set of hands around the garden proved to be quite the blessing, so why not keep you around? Hah, you may as well call it an excuse! Yuma had always been amused by your energy, — your eagerness to learn about the things he often busied himself with. Soon enough he itching to spend time with his favorite little listener (Yui's sibling).

You could say he's quite protective over you. After all, how can a “defenseless sow” like your sister possibly look after you? The girl can barely pick a tomato properly! Yuma is much more capable of providing and protecting you...or so he says. So whether you like it or not, you're now his little helper. And trust me dear, there isn't anything you or Yui can do about it.

“Tch, toughen up kid, a little dirt won't hurt ya' too much. How are you ever gonna do somethin' on your own? Hah, but don't let others go pushin' you around like this. Only I'm allowed to do that, got it?

AZUSA MUKAMI

Nine times out of ten, you're the one who went out of your way to speak to him. Your curiosity got the best of you, leading you to a very extensive conversation with the youngest brother. And he was arguably not as boring as he appeared. A bit strange, that he was, but you saw no harm behind his abnormal kinks. Seeing how he's the most “normal” one in the house, surely you'll become attached to him in no time.

Azusa is pretty damn clingy once he gets comfortable. Even then, you find it hard to reject him — he looks so sad! You'll find yourself being dragged off to some random place in the manor as soon as you enter the doors! Yui hardly has a chance to speak with you, which is exactly where at he wants. Though she might be Eve, becoming Adam is the last thing on his mind when you're around.

“You don't look too well...did you...have a bad day today? Hmm...what happened? You can hit me if it makes you feel better. I just...I just want to see you smile.”

Diabolik lovers Preference - “You asking them to bite you”

Summary: Reader (you) is a human and ask them to bite you/feed on your bleed.

Warnings: Blood, vampires x humans, kissing, touching, somethings might come off as a little sexual to some people, cuts, biting, typical vampire things…

Ayato:

-He would sit up on the chair he was laid upon before standing up and looking into your eyes with a smirk. Grabbing your hand and pulling you down onto the sofa, looking down on you as he scanned your body.

-“I’m going to mark you, so others know not to feed off of you. You belong to me now, you got that?” He bluntly spoke, leaning down.

-His warm breath lingering over your skin, then you could feel a shot of pain from his fangs digging into the skin of your neck. Which he left many marks to claim you enjoying every moment of this.

Kanato:

-Kanato stood there by the tree, looking at you as he gripped onto teddy, glancing at your neck for a moment before frowning. Not having fun with it at all. Wanting you to be scared in a way. Dropping teddy on the floor and pushing you against the tree.

-“I get to say when I drink. Isn’t that right teddy?” He smiled with his sleepy eyes.

-He moved some hair from your face and neck, letting a finger run across your collarbone. Leaning in close and placing a soft kiss to your lips, before moving away and biting into your neck, loving the sounds you made.

Laito:

-“Ohh I already planned on doing that little brat” he smirked, leaning in inches away from your lips as his eyes never glanced away from you for a second.

-His hand lifting your head up by the chin, making you look straight into those eyes. A playful grin on his face as he placed his hand on your chest and slowly squatted down, lifting up your clothing to reveal your thigh. Squeezing the skin, with an eager expression. Letting his tongue glide up your inner thigh, his eyes still gazing up at you as he did so, before piercing your skin with his fangs and drinking from your body.

Shu:

-Shu’s eyes shot open as he’s heard that sentence leave your pretty mouth, turning his head to look at you. He was in complete shock that you would suggest it, but he couldn’t deny the sudden thirst he had. Your blood smelt perfect to him

-“A-Are you sure?” He asked just to be sure

-Once you gave him a smile and a nod he would pull you into his lap on the couch and gently move your hair out the way, kissing your neck gently before biting into your skin, moaning at the sweet taste entering his mouth from you.

Reiji:

-His dark eyes looked down at you as he put down a flask on his desk, scoffing as he pushed his glasses up. He mentioned he had need some blood for a mix he was making in his lab but wasn’t expecting you to offer your own. But he also wanted to have a taste of your sweet blood, thinking of how he should react.

-Reiji gave into the idea but didn’t it when you least expected it. Grabbing your hand and pulling you in front of him so your back was pressed against the wooden desk

-“Then I will savour it” He said in a low tone, biting into your wrist, tasting the thick liquid before pulling away and letting it drip into the flask, using that blood for his experiments.

Subaru:

-As he showed you the flowers he loved so dearly, he was shocked to hear you ask such a thing. Turning his body to face you and glare down at you. His eyes adventuring down to your lips as he tried to process it.

-“You wish for me to feed on you?” He asks, shocked and slightly angry at the idea

-When he saw you nod he could see the fear in your eyes and sighed. Walking straight past you and back inside

-“You’re not ready.” Is all he will say to you in return, leaving you alone in the garden. His mind wandering back to you and the idea over and over again until he sees the time when you’re ready.

Kou:

-Kou was wandering why you invited him to the roof of the school and as he heard you speak, he couldn’t help but smoothly place his hands on your waist and lower back, bending you back as if he was going to kiss you. But the cheeky smile on his face showed you that’s not what he had planned.

-“I can finally taste you huh? The others might be jealous you know?” He chuckles.

-Kou was impressed by your confidence as you showed that you don’t care. Making him smirk and lean into a kiss. Letting his lips explore down to your neck and lower to your collarbone, his fangs digging into your sensitive skin, letting the red liquid flow into his mouth.

Ruki:

You were sleepy while laying on his bed, while Ruki was at his desk writing down some things, he explained it was difficult to focus while still thirsty. So you asked him to bite you and have a drink. He turned his head to look at you laid upon his bed and gulped, feeling nervous for the first time.

-He was hesitant and had to stare until he could see how serious you were, even behind those sleepy eyes of yours. So he came over, leaning his body above yours, his expression never changing from the same serious face he generally had.

-Ruki leaned down and took a sniff of your familiar perfume and the hint of your blood. His fangs biting into your neck without a thought. But after he realised what happened and apologised.

Yuma:

-He was excited when you agreed to join him with grabbing some of the vegetables from his garden until your conversation ended in you telling him that he can drink off you whenever he’s thirsty. Which led to him holding the basket of tomatoes, eggplants and other things he’s been growing. Looking at you in shock as blush bread across his cheeks, thinking of how sweet you might taste.

-“I like the idea of that.” He sighed, putting the basket down and backing you up against the greenhouse wall, lifting up your chin and biting into your neck, then licking the blood off and pulling your shirt to side so he could bite onto your shoulder. Leaving marks were he pleased.

Azusa:

Azusa could see the fear in your eyes as he held one of his favourite knives to your face asking you to cut him. But you couldn’t do it so you made an excuse out of hurting him. Grabbing the knife and hesitating for a split second, before cutting your arm. His eyes lighting up at the sight. He listened to you as you told him he could drink from you.

-He was unsure but as he spotted the blood run down your arm he couldn’t waste a second and gently held your arm, licking the red liquid off, biting into your cut making you whimper at the feeling.

-After he pulled away he would smile with a flustered expression and put the knife with his collection naming the knife after you, as to him, you both just shared a beautiful and special moment he shall never forget.

Is writing a Diabolik Lovers fanfic worth it?

I know this fandom is quite small, but I was hoping me writing a story would inspire others to write as well. The problem I run into is "Is anyone actually going to read it?" Considering there isn't many writers for the fandom on wattpad, tumble, or a03.

[cult1970]

hiiii! thoughts on yuuma and/or the rest of the mukami?

Omg thank you so much for the question !

It makes me so exited hahah ☺️

Plus if you think that they would speak other languages please say it ! I would love to see others opinions.

じゃあ、行きましょ！^_^

What languages do I think the Diaboys speak, Mukami version.

Ruki.

Ok if I’m not wrong all the Mukami brothers are east European ( idk I still need to play all the games 💀) but ! I feel that Ruki would speak German but from Austria.

I think he would be super interested in Austrian art and history (?), but at the same time I feel that he would speak Bulgarian, maybe because of Ruki’s background ( he reminds me of the architecture and art of Sofia, idk it’s strange).

I feel that he would use both languages when he reads.

Kou.

I feel that Kou would know Korean, maybe for his idol image, I feel that he would have a big fan base in Korea or China, but he was like “ Chinese is not my thing, too much for people I don’t know ���‍♀️ “.

But if we talk about a language that he learned when he was young I think Polish, maybe his mother ? He looks so much like he had a lot of trouble because of his origins, so because of that he doesn’t want to use this language.

Yuma.

Yuma is the most proudest Russian ever, his energy is so old Russian lady from Siberia hahah, I feel that he would cuss in Russian or when he would get angry he would use it.

Plus I feel that if you say to him:

“ Yuma I’m cold…” don’t think he will give you a sweater or a blanket, he will come back with a bottle of vodka and some borsch.

I mean hell yea but not every night 💀

Azusa.

Now, my little honey bubu ( love this little kid, he need love 👴🏾)

Anyways he’s Romanian so he speaks Romanian fluently but he has too much trauma from there so he doesn’t like to talk in his language, but when he gets comfortable and if you ask him he will try to teach you some words.

[dialovers-translations]

I dont feel any hope of DRAMA CD or anything involved with seiyuu after i read Sakurai Takahiro's contract termination. Mukami family full of shits

Wait hold up.

Has Rejet published an official statement that they terminated Sakurai’s contract? I’ve been busy with work and haven’t been keeping up with their Tweets and such. ;;

[renamami]

I feel like RuRei playing the sims together would be so interesting.

Ruki makes his family + Reiji and plays as usual (but uses every cheat possible). As he's about to plan his glitched My Wedding Stories wedding with Reiji he looks over and Reiji has trapped some rando in a 2x2 room with a firework

[ruki--mukami]

I saw those asks about your music taste and I got curious. Wouldn't you find amazing another genres like opera, musicals. (the spectacle), orchestra music and/or barbershop quartets? Those make a considerable homage to music with excellent singers, beautiful poetry/storytelling poems and instruments.

For example, one day with ears hearing The Queen of the Night wouldn't be a waste, would it, Ruki?

“The only exception I can consider is classical and orchestral compositions. The rest? While I do hold those genres with great respect due to their vocal artistry, I can’t say I would deliberately go out of my way to listen to them. Opera and the like require genuine talent with the richness and complexity of their harmonies, not to mention the tradition of timelessness that they carry throughout the centuries, and it’s for those reasons I am partial to its style compared to their modern counterparts. With opera singers in particular, you can tell just how controlled their vocals are, which I must commend. The Queen of the Night is a rather curious example of this, as you can hear the emotional anguish evinced in every second of the aria. Now, barbershop quartets on the other hand—they are impressive for the exact opposite reasons. It still isn’t my cup of tea, but even I must praise how they achieve such difficult harmonies without instrumental accompaniment. No doubt it requires the utmost control, precision, and endless practice.”

[failing-to-write-again]

Does anyone else have vastly different appearances in their head for you in the different routes? Like I day dream a lot, like a lot a lot it's why I post sometimes it's when the fear overrides the need to word vomit.

TW: mentions of abuse, depression and just general fucked up. It's the diaboys there's only so much you can avoid mentioning

Ok so I'm gonna write out a brief description of what always stays the same in these day dreams. I play around with them being human or something else, normal or like assassin's or stuff like that. But there's a few things that generally stay the same. They're all Afab, with she/her pronouns just because I create women a lot in my head but you could easily gender swap them as I'm focusing on personality and general vibe the appearance I describe I think is easily able to fit on different genders or have a same vibe equivalent.

Shu

I've always felt Shu would match well with someone who deals with depression or anxiety, more so less severe cases as two sleep all the time to avoid having to face life people do not make healthy relationships. But someone who has some degree of understanding while also having a better hold of themselves as humans are getting better at learning how to help manage depression. Shu is old and I'm pretty sure he's not bothered to learn much about the modern world aside from sleep/comfort, music (that's a stretch mp3s are not used as much as phones also that bitch would absolutely be a waterproof wireless earphone hoe), and probably porn.

I think a natural leader type person would also suit. I know in theory it sounds antithetical to the s/o with depression but hear me out. I deal with depression but also due to my own personality step into organized positions as I want things done to avoid stress. I really see an oldest sister would match him as it's someone modeling behaviors that to the best of my knowledge Shu was never against having. It was Reiji rejecting him and the triplets being kept away from him that prevented that dynamic setting itself up. I really think if an s/o could get Shu to work on himself he would be trying to be more brotherly. I think out of all the brothers Shu and Subaru are very likely to have a happier relationship with everyone. But they don't have the tools and are too stepped in their ways to navigate without help.

I think they would have to meet in school or something outside of being a sacrificial bride, maybe an actual exchange student with strict instructions of no harm coming to them. Diaboys set up a pretty unhealthy dynamic and since they go cruelty first, then fuck up so bad then realize they're in love that the types that would benefit them "best" would be gone or killed already.

Someone with a good sense or sarcasm would be great for Shu too. Couples who laugh together stay together. Plus a match for teasing would probably be something that leaves a grin on his face all day long.

Shu: "You should really wear a longer skirt in school, or do you want me to look up your skirt as you walk past. Heh, lewd woman"

S/o: [as they walk past] "Why risk breaking uniform code when I can just wear nice underwear under it instead, then I get two benefits"

S/o: [stopping just before turning down a corridor] "There's no rant from Reiji for breaking code and you end up showing off how desperate you are. Lewd man~"

Shu: [in love]

I don't think any super genius level of intelligence is needed but someone with a rounded view on things and a someone who is at least vaguely informed about what they talk about would be good. It avoids the annoyance of someone dense but also isn't so book focused it reminds him of Reiji.

Reiji

Speaking of the spectacled suitor. S/o has gotta be smart in some capacity not necessarily an encyclopedia but maybe good at Chemistry/Biology, or a good strategist. Bitch aims to be a control freak and a future king or, route depending, advisor to the King, so battle tactics would be attractive.

He'd be into the type of woman who doesn't overtly dress sexually. Pencil skirt or pants and blouse with some heels are a great look and can be sexual when you want to be sexual but also just well put together when you aren't looking to get railed on a desk. Except, of course, for when he decides to get handsy he realizes you decided to forgo any underwear.

Nipple piercings. He's definitely into them you can't fool me it's all that hidden succubus energy he finds attractive in a partner.

Past that he wants someone who isn't going to stress him out, someone to be a voice of reason, and someone to relax with.

I think someone chatty could be either great or awful for him. On the one hand he seems so adjusted to over stimulation true silence may unsettle him but at the same time it may annoy him if he isn't interested in conversation. Same for the other side of the coin, someone too quiet would unsettle him cause he won't know what your thinking, but at the same time it might be nice to sit in silence and read.

I've always thought Reiji would want someone tall like 5'10-6'00 as they can't be taller then him because inferiority complex, but I firmly believe he's got a back that is prone to aches already so not having to bend far for kisses or hugs would be nice. Or better yet someone shorter than him but still tall for a woman, so wearing heels gets here to be like 5'11" to 6ft.

Reiji does like humor and spontaneity sometimes. I think a stiff lover would drain him, nobody wants to actually date themselves. Again the older sister type (stereotype I know) would suit, as generally older sisters are pushed to mature fast like he was, except generally it's not as severe as him and older sisters are statistically the most likely to have read about or been to therapy to undo some of the behaviors that aren't as healthy.

[Loud music or something playing]

Reiji: [going to stand up] I swear can nobody keep order in this house...

S/o: [Gently touches his hand] They've yet to make a crash and it's coming from Ayato's room. I say we turn on the record player to drown it out for now. It's not your job to be their dad Sweetness, and all your doing is giving yourself grey hairs

Reiji: [sitting back down] I suppose I could finish this chapter-

[CRASH]

S/o: [quickly stands up and starts to walk to the door, lots of heel clicking] I swear that boy has to ruin every quiet moment I can grasp for us. Wait there.

Reiji: [feels very loved for and is confused as to why that gave him a boner]

I don't think he'd enjoy a dom much but a switch who prefers to sub but isn't against them taking a more gentle lead (not the kinky shit he's into I don't think you'd actually get a whip near him in a healthy relationship).

Ayato

This bitch is tricky. Like I think with the except of Subaru the Sakamakis get worse the younger they are. I feel that's why the triplets never appealed to me they seemed harder to redeem. I could see Shu, Reiji, or Subaru potentially getting better with Reiji least likely but the triplets are... messy.

That being said I think Ayato is definitely going to have to be a least a little bit on the road to being more balanced by the time he meets this s/o.

An s/o who is modern would definitely appeal in my opinion. Video games, outfits, music all that good culture stuff that Ayato is a spectator not a player in right now. He is still old as shit and he hasn't got non...any friends so he doesn't have a lens to learn the culture, all he can do is watch.

Ayato is one of the highest sex driven characters in the games (he sleeps with Yui the most because it uses the underwear sprite almost every time they sleep together indicating it ain't just dreaming happening) I think that may be part possessive part teenage boy. So someone with an interest in partaking is probably important for drive balance. To be clear I don't necessarily mean sexy here, more so that giddy first time giggles type person. Someone who's excited to experience things with him.

That extends past the bedroom too Ayato was starved for activity as a child and is still as a teen so someone who knows what's fun and is happy to take him there is like perfect.

I do think Ayato's s/o will need to be a patient person as I feel Ayato going through therapy would mean a lot of breakdowns or tension in him that could lead to more arguments than potentially needed if they ain't a little patient for the smaller things. There is a difference between 'he demanded I make him Takoyaki then sulked when I reminded him we're equals in this partnership so I'll avoid escalating ' vs 'he has bitten me for talking to a guy, but to him that's just a display of love.' The second thing deserved a conversation then and there you don't avoid rocking the boat when it comes to dangerous behaviors folks.

[See Ayato with a hairbrush sitting cross legged with S/O in his lap] Ayato: So we don't like Jacob...

S/O: Well, Edward isn't exactly a catch himself but like c'mon he imprinted on a baby. Ayato: Beatrix and him were engaged from birth. S/O: Exactly.

Laito

Oh boy. Again needs to be starting therapy or unraveling what his mum did to him and what his culture has shaped him to be first.

Once done however I think Laito would want someone "normal." No baggage, or crazy lifestyle, or wacky habits. I think he craves something calm when everything has been so disordered growing up. I think it's why he likes crosswords, they're a weirdly normal thing in his weird world.

I think he needs someone with a lower sex drive then he displays in the games. A not uncommon trauma response from childhood sexual assault is hyper sexuality which seems to be why Laito is hyper sexual. I don't think that's him as a person, Shu would be high sex drive in how he talks but Laito seems very much to be shielding himself with sex not having sex for sex.

So yeah someone who isn't always in the mood, maybe they sleep naked but just because they want skin on skin contact. Maybe it's to feel his breathing better. But that sort of environment. Where the thing he's over sexualized: himself and women, become less sexual more intimate. He'll be thrown a bit at first 100%. But I think after cuddling while having his hair gentle played with or a shoulder rub he'll be welcoming this new part bodily expression.

Laito is smart, smarter than he gets credit for he's a manipulator with charisma to boot and I've tried a crossword they use a certain part of your brain that I do not use. I think he'd like someone who's not too dense but also I feel like he won't mind too much so long as they could hold conversation and read sarcasm.

He also would probably love a more modern s/o like Ayato. Imagine the shopping sprees!

S/O: [coming out of changing room] I'm really not sure about this dress on me Laito: It's the shade it clashes with your undertones, try it in a different colour. S/O: They don't have it in my size, that sucks. Laito: Why? fufu~ It's Chanel, she was a vampire just take a picture and I'll get the designer over to make you one tailored made. S/O: Are you sure? I don't know how close I want you being stuck to your dad, and all the weirdness you've mentioned. Laito: Oh please, as if he's bothered enough about the fourth in line.

Kanato

This one's hard man. Kanato, Ruki, Kou, and Azusa are some of the hardest to envision in a healthy spot tbh. So this Kanato is very ooc. Think: isn't talking to teddy even if he still carries it, has a better hold on his temper, isn't trying to kill you constantly... basically just not Kanato.

A baker or a cook would absolutely appeal, dates where they show him how to cook new treats could be fun. Also top tier tea parties man.

Potentially a singer, musician, or dancer could appeal as well with the shared interest of singing being there. If the jealousy Kanato has gets weakened a bit I think that could help him get past his "I sing cuze mum liked it" thing.

I also truly think Kanato is like Laito in wanting something normal after all the abnormal he's lived through.

sorry he's so short I seriously don't know what to write. I also do not want to curse you all with mega ooc Kanato discussion

Subaru

Subaru is by far the closest to being the same amount of traumatized some people I've met irl are. Issues still there with the whole punching walls in anger but the fact he seems to punch walls to avoid hurting people implies he is trying to work on himself but doesn't know how.

Subaru could meet his s/o as a sacrificial bride and I think he's the only one who could. If I remember his route correctly, he isn't nearly as sadistic in the reasoning for his biting, hes also like what 15, 16 looking? He is modelling the only behavior he's seen, and while that doesn't make it right it is less heinous than the others.

I feel the most profound importance for this relationship is someone who will not shout, someone with a healthy enough up bringing to view arguments as Subaru approaches them as entirely useless. He will probably still have tantrums at first but having someone entirely unwilling to let communication break down on their end will push Subaru to do the same.

Subaru also does not seem to actually want much at all. He just wants a break, poor thing. If the S/O were to be a sacrificial bride, I think he'd be the one to pull a run away. I don't see Karl caring much here, Subaru is just a consequence of his vile habits as far as Karl is concerned.

From there I do think it's just a normal therapist and probably turning the S/O to a vampire.

[S/O and Subaru in some nice meadow resting on a blanket by a stream. Think flowers everywhere under a gently warm sun.] S/O: I've successfully lasted a week without accidentally breaking anything! Subaru: HAHA! Well done but don't go expecting any prizes I could do that shit. S/O: Fair, your 3 year pin is coming up to. We should probably do something for it. Subaru: Well... there is one thing... [getting up to one knee]

Ruki

oh look what we have here. An endgelord.

Seriously Ruki infuriates me from a character point at times. They are meant to be somewhat foils to the Sakamakis, and for Ruki in particular his behavior is a mirror to Reiji and his ego is closer to Ayato but with Reiji type mannerisms.

So he likes reading, came from nobility but saw the absolute worse of humanity to then re-find a reason to care for others with his brothers. Ok cool, then he dies in an attempt to escape to then have Karl take pity on him and revive him as his subordinate. SO WHY DOES HE HATE POOR PEOPLE!?

Like whenever I sit down to think about it Ruki's sheer cruelty lines up with nothing other than abused children turn into abusers which is a dog-shit and wrong opinion. Like he doesn't have to be pally, he can be a kuudere, he can be jaded. But having him be so sadistic just makes him what he hated, a spoiled rich man taking joy in using his power over others.

But this is about suited partners. So for this fucker I prescribe what he wishes he was. Now this is the material worth much more work and maybe it will get that, I am currently uncertain.

So, let's be real that orphanage still existed after the Mukamis. So my little world I've made with all that maladaptive day dreaming I do. In that world just to show Ruki as not as above everyone as he thinks, his soulmate type S/O as well as some if not all the other S/Os were there either at the same time or sequentially. Ruki got his escape plan from the work of a girl he viewed as too stupid to pull it off, aka S/O. When the boys escape obviously torture happens to see if anyone knows anything, and the boys failed the escape. This is used by the S/O to advise her sisters to change course slightly.

They do escape and Karl realizes very quickly he got the less advantageous group in terms of strategy. He would more than likely approach these girls, maybe they stay human for quite a while but eventually do need to be turned for the pure sake of time.

So Ruki gets introduce when he comes to visit Karl to update on the whole Eve thing only to see S/O. Standing there talking with Karl as if you're equals as he's laughing at some comment. Karl introducing them as his right hand man so to speak. Seeing that you get to live with Karl and you glaring.

After some prodding due to jealousy causing him to take out his insecurities on you in the form of unwanted commentary, you snap. You openly call him out on his failings, how you are what he wishes he was and how you don't masquerade as the same tormentors that made both your childhoods hell.

Eventually (I'm not giving a whole slow burn fic away for free people), he gets whipped something bad. Having to face the fact that he is exactly what he judges in humans so much. I don't imagine many would forgive him, hence why S/O to me cannot be anyone other than such a strong person to have survived and still be so openly kind.

No dialogue here so I can pretend these all got fair treatment.

Yuma

So big boy farmer. His sadism doesn't fully track with me same as Ruki but Yuma has more redeeming character traits that offset the cruelty. He also seems to truly only carry out the Eden project due to loyalty to Karl, he is a fiercely loyal person.

As said for Ruki I love the idea of the Mukami S/Os being sisters from the orphanage. Yumas S/O would probably also have a strong sense of loyalty to Ruki's S/O. The main exception being her loyalty to Karl does not cause her to be in any way sadistic. While Karl is fully ready to drop kick a child the S/O does not see that behavior appropriate at all regardless of her vampire-ism.

Having to deal with pining for a girl who will not date him as he currently treats women may cause him to change for the sake of placating her sure. But once identities are revealed and Yuma learns that the reason the S/O is so anti-cruelty is due to the orphanage I think Yuma would be one of the ones more open to change. Like Ruki, the reflection isn't so nice once the glass was polished.

He just wants a farm and probably kids or dogs lets be real here.

Kou

Once again an edgelord. Who doesn't at all understand give and take as much as he harps on about it. I may have low enough standards to crush on these boys but a hypocrite is TOO LOW.

I'm sounding like a broken record here but a fellow orphan escapee S/O as the vector for Kou getting called out on his bs is great.

Also full on enemies to lovers vibes. One little head canon is what if the S/O at the request of Karl gave up an eye, the eye then enchanted for Kou. Having to stand across from someone who will not buy the excuse of his trauma being an acceptable reason to harm others. Because you lived through it all, if not worse and still gave up an eye free of charge because Karl had this protegee who was so sad about not having two eyes.

I think Kou's love would not start until near a century after. Having to see you again and again after the introduction, seeing how you and your sister's are Karl's jewels as you are so effective because of your humanity. He's prone to envy let's be frank.

But once he opens up to the fact he could change and be like you, maybe after having to work with you, he begins to warm up to it all.

Azusa

Azusa is one like Kanato that I am unsure if I know how to treat.

The love of pain of his would put so much emotional labor on an S/O that just isn't fair. The only relationship I would feel comfortable writing on would be a post therapy and self work Azusa who doesn't make masochism his main personality trait.

He is gentle in disposition so a gentle S/O would match well. Or maybe an extroverted S/O to bring him out his shell a bit, post masochism recovery.

Yeah if any Azusa fans read this and have ideas please write you own and sent it to me I am really curious of seeing this from the perspective on someone who has a connection to him.

RUKI MUKAMI

Waking up, Ruki? There's no such thing. As he can be found seated in an idle chair in the corner of his room. A book held lazily at his fingertips, his eyes set securely on your trembling figure. You didn't hesitate to throw your arms around him, careful so as to not disrupt his reading. To no avail, might I add.

Ruki motions to the seat before him, resting his chin on the palm of his hand. Aloof eyes fixed on the dull pages of the book. His voice came out in stern yet soft as though not to startle you. You were sleeping in no time, a smile faintly drawing at your lips.

“What is the meaning of this? A nightmare, I see. What would you like of me? Have a seat, I'm sure a story would suffice?”

KOU MUKAMI

All Idols need their beauty sleep. Kou is no exception. This man is an incredibly light sleeper; thus disturbing his sleep is an easy way to sour his mood. But, none of that applies when it involves his precious baby sister~!

Kou will tune in to your rambles for five minutes at most before growing bored. Then he gets an idea. So he pokes at you, his nimble fingers attacking the soft flesh of your sides. Your childlike giggles bring a smile to his face. It's safe to say that this expression is much more pleasant than the last.

“Wah~! Did you miss me that much? Fufu~ Y'know, you don't have to make up such silly excuses to sleep with your big brother!”

YUMA MUKAMI

Although he'll never admit it, moments like these make his heart swoon. You're growing up much faster than he'd imagined and moments like these are becoming scarce. Yuma welcomes you into his arms, rubbing deep circles into your back.

"Hey!" You scoffed. "What'd you do that for?!" Yuma snickered loudly, holding his weapon of assault, a pillow, in his free hand. It was clear he found your sudden surge of energy as nothing short of amusing. You reach for your own pillow, gripping it between your polished nails. "This. Means. War."

“Gettin’ scared of a little nightmare; how old are ya’ again? Oi, don't glare at me...Ha! with an attitude like that you shouldn't be scared of nothin’.”

AZUSA MUKAMI

For a man with bags, he sleeps rather peacefully. If you could even call it that. Azusa is arguably the best listener among his brothers. You could talk for hours and he'll never lose his interest. A nightmare? Tell him every detail. Hard day at school? How can he make it better?

Weaving his fingers through your tresses as dulcet hums resonated within his chest. His voice was in no way better than Kou’s. But It was comforting nonetheless; in an unusual, eerie sense. Azusa tucked your head securely beneath his chin. His humming doesn’t cease until you are lulled to sleep.

“A nightmare...what...was it like? Did you...get hurt? Haa...that's unfortunate. Tell me....what scared...you the most...?”

[alterin]

it’s interesting how you can sympathise with a person after reading the interviews, watching them and stuff, but then they say something women/relationships related and leave you with your jaw open in shock

like how you can be such a NORMAL person and then reveal your outdated, sexist views on women?

[neorukixart]

Thank you. I’m glad you like my idea. Also this idea of the reunion ties into a fic with Kodaro as a villain who’s making his own “Digimon” types. It’s playing off of how in tamers verse, Digimon were made by humans.

also Rikuo, Ruki’s dad, became was as depressed and upset as she was through the years, he became how he used to be, before meeting Rumiko brightened his life.

also Ruki when she and her dad rebuild their relationship, realized how much she’s truly meant to him. She also learns his past pains and how unlike her, he never knew a parents love, aside from Rumiko’s mom’s kindness. I have that sadly, rumiko’s dad passed when she was young.

I remember someone asking me what would happen if a visual novel featuring Ruki were to be made. I guess we got our plot and villain fellas! XD

Sorry but I love this so much and wouldn't mind if we collectively accept this as canon because any other thing that k〇naka does is not something we want so from now on, only fanmade stuff is canon in the Tamers-verse uwu tehee~
