v; we’ve long believed that the hero would appear as a divine beast (zelda au)

It is an age of upheaval. Rival clans have begun to form within Hyrule, splitting the once united kingdom into separate territories, each ruled by fierce shogun-like fighters. The strange period had been formed thanks to the strange occurrence...

The Hero of Legend was not born. For the first time in ages, the Princess of Hyrule has little power, their rule puppeted by a demonic Shogun who bares resemblance to the old prophesized King of Evil.

Deep within a territory unclaimed by the ruling clans of Hyrule, a forest brimming with spirits protects a young girl named Robin. A strange mark appears upon her hand one day, followed by the sudden voice of the gods...

"Restore peace and unity to Hyrule... Bless it with your light, as the SUN must do."

In this timeline, Link was never born. Zelda is a princess in the court of Hyrule, with very little power. She remains but a priestess inside the court, searching for visions to try and unite the warring factions of the kingdom together again. All at the same time, strange demons and yokai have begun terrorizing the country.

Robin is the protagonist of this story. Her brother is taken away by demons, which leads to her chasing after him and slaying the demonic forces puppeted by that universe's Ganondorf, who resembles an old samurai warlord.

Fighting as both wolf and swordsman, Robin goes around Hyrule purifying nature and the hearts of those swallowed by the dark hatred the Demon Lord has spread.

This iteration of the story was inspired greatly by shows such as Shōgun (2024), games like Ōkami (2006) and movies like The Tale of the Princess Kaguya (2013) and Princess Mononoke (1997).

A comic that was initially based on the ask in the post before this. And then it spiralled into angst, because apparently my brain craves that stuff between 11pm and 1am!

This is technically the original Tsugikuni-Kamado Swap, but similar premise to the alternate version. If you ignore the third and fourth pages.

Your honor, I had to

[halfasoul]

I have some verses I need to write up... 👀✨

[whirling-fangs]

There was little time to think before he acted. Those people would probably get the scare of their life, or with some chance think that this was all a setup to liven up the old temple, but at least they would get away with their life.

"Stay here! And make sure nobody else goes towards the well!" He instructed the poor visitors, his fangs on full display. He disappeared with a leap, leaving the couple to wonder just what kind of creature they had just encountered.

Relief washed over Inosuke as he saw the youkai collapse into the well. She did it! She was pretty awesome, when she wasn't getting on his nerves–

"NATSUKO! WATCH OUT!!"

Too late. The monster's claws had closed around her ankle, and dragged her down into the cavity. By the time Inosuke reached the edge of the destroyed well, they had both disappeared from view.

No time to think. Keep moving, keep moving!

Inosuke leapt down and closed his eyes, wishing with all his might for the well to take him after the youkai and his poor captive. He felt a strange warmth where he kept the second shard stored, urging him to reach down for it and hold it tight in his fist.

He emerged with a gasp, blinded by the sunlight that poured into the other side of the well. A quick leap, and he emerged into the large clearing, still clutching the little jewel. The demon had gotten a headstart, but its trail was easy to follow.

"COME BACK, YOU BASTARD!! LET HARUKO GO!!!"

Inosuke gave chase with great leaps, and soon caught up with the beast. His body felt lighter all of a sudden, newfound strength pouring into his legs, his arms, fueling his entire system with power beyond anything he had known before. He gave a grew swing of both his clawed hands, aiming to sever the monster's arms from its shoulders.

He failed to notice that he was no longer holding the shard.

On the first occasion, she hadn't noticed, but the second mishap with her name when Inosuke urged her to action registered somewhere in the back of her mind. Haruko didn't care much -- there was a much more urgent matter at hand. The monster had finally found them.

It was angry. And it was wounded. She could have made it, but she had to be careful.

She held her breath, the shard held tight in her fist. She lifted her hand to get the monster's attention and shouted at its direction.

"You! Ugly thing! Right here!"

The monster's eyes focussed on her at unison and it let out a gurgling growl. One heavy step after the other, it headed, paced, ran at her direction. Blood dripped down her neck, its teeth were as sharp as razors, but Haruko kept her stance despite her knees begging her to give up and run. Or maybe she was actually petrified by fear, who knew.

When the monster leapt at her, she barely had the time to throw herself away, rolling in the dust. In an attempt to turn just as suddenly, the monster tripped, its knee bumped against the well. It let out a shriek of protest and thumbled down the well with a crush, the stones demolished on the way precipitating on it.

"Yes!" Haruko exhulted; she turned around, looking for Inosuke, shaking the hand that still held the pink shred. "We made it! Inosuke, we made it! We--"

The rest died in her throat; a large hand reached out of the well and clasped her ankle, claws piercing her skin. With a last glance at the sky and a terrified shriek, Haruko disappeared in the well, dragged down by the monster, with the pink shred still withing her grasp.

Demon Slayer AU where everything is the same except Yoriichi is a ghost.

He’s corporal/people can see him, he can change his appearance from when he was a kid to when he was old.

He follows Tanjiro around. They met sometime before the Hashira Training Arc for sure, but how early depends on what the writer decides. Has he been there since pre-canon? Or did he show up after the Entertainment District Arc (would honestly make most sense since Tanjiro didn’t know about Sun Breathing until after Mugen Train, but again this is an AU).

He meets Muichiro, and after it clicks that he’s Michikatsu’s descendant Yoriichi follows him around too, eager to be close with the family he could never have.

Depending on when they met, Yoriichi could help Muichiro recover is missing memories earlier than in canon.

Other things about/to include in the AU:

Kamaboko Squad centric (Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke, Zenitsu, Kanao, Genya, AND Aoi and Senjuro)

each member gets a one-on-one interaction with him at some point, which will add to their own personal character growth

Whether or not Yoriichi can physically interact with others is up to the writer

making him able to fight demons seems kinda OP, so unless the writer can find a way to make it make sense about how he can maybe don’t do that

maybe he can exude enough strength to stun demons, but not fully kill them

can he pick things up, or do they just pass through him?

He helps train Tanjiro, making him more proficient in Sun Breathing

this can give Tanjiro more time to hone is Water Breathing. It always irked me that Tanjiro didn’t practice Water Breathing as much when he discovered Sun Breathing (don’t quote me on that, I get my info from TikToks and reaction videos. But why learn two breathing styles and not increase your skill in both?)

this can allow a Giyuu training session in the Hashira Training Arc that we didn’t get to see

Expanding on Yoriichi changing his age: I feel like the older he presents himself, the more power he would have. So when he’s fighting, he’s somewhere between his 20s and 80s. However, because this takes up a lot of energy, when he’s not fighting he’s typically in the form of himself as a child or in his teens

whether or not his mentality/maturity is affected when he’s at different ages is up to the writer so long as it’s not portrayed in an erotic/kinky way

Yoriichi can give tips to the Hashiras that those in the Sengoku Era used (information always has the potential to be forgotten, so maybe there were some tricks that were forgotten about?)

can provide more information about Muzan and his weaknesses, since he was the only swordsman who came close to killing the Demon King

Interactions with Lady Tamayo and Yushiro!

Fluffy moments! Slice of Life, Found Family, all the tropes! Let him be the father to the Kamaboko Squad that they never had/lost (let him have the chance to be the father he never got to be)

Lots of interactions with Genya (is my favoritism showing?)

bonding over being the younger brother

bonding over their endless love for their older brothers

bonding over their older brothers who do so much to hurt them, but they just can’t stop admiring them

Let Yoriichi give Sanemi a talking to

yes, I understand why Sanemi acted towards Genya the way he did. He wanted to protect him, keep him out of danger. However. Good intentions DO NOT give you a free pass on bad actions.

the way that Sanemi treated Genya was cruel and frankly unacceptable; he could’ve gone about it in a much more mature manner

Interactions with Giyuu and Yoriichi!!

mostly bc Giyuu is my fav Hashira, but I notice a lot of similarities between them

Maybe Yoriichi can provide information about Kokushibo/Uppermoon 1?

Yoriichi has the flute that Michikatsu gave him with him in his ghost form

Additional weaknesses up to the writer (this goes for powers too)

Kamaboko Squad showing Yoriichi present-day things

A mix of fluff, angst, etc.

rating is up to the author

ANY SHIP is welcome so long as it is:

legal

not a pro-ship

treated respectfully/with some level of understanding

^^continuing from this, it doesn’t matter if you include SaneKane, SaneGiyuu, ShinoGiyuu, ShinoMitsu, SaneMitsu, ObaGiyuu, UzuRen, or any other pairing, polyamorous included. It doesn’t matter if there’s no ships at all. Everyone has there own preferences, and it’s up to both the reader and the writer to be respectful about it

This is all I’ve come up with for now! I’ll most likely come back and add more at some point, but if you have any ideas or suggestions let me know too!

If you end up using this idea, credit me with my Tumblr, and if you want to as well my AO3 which can be found in my profile :)

Hello, I really love this au ‼️i have a question tho, how is the divorce court thing going for Kokushibo and Muzan ? 😊

The divorce court could NOT be going worse…

But on a serious note, while Kokushibo and Muzan did not actually go to Sengoku era divorce court, both of them lost a lot when Kokushibo decided to defect.

Koku, obviously, lost his status and rank.

And Muzan lost his strongest demon— as a massive narcissist, he did not take it well. In his centuries of life, no one had ever defected before, certainly never in any meaningful way.

Right here I have to make a confession, because I have a kind of obscure headcannon between Muzan and Kokushibo that majorly affects Muzan’s next actions here.

So… does anyone else find it weird that Kokushibo is even… uh, around??

Let me explain what I mean; Why the fuck does a cowardly, egotistical demon king keep around a subordinate that physically resembles the one person who gave him cellular PTSD?

Everything we learn about Muzan shows how ready and eager he is to take out demons who bother him, (like we see with the lower moons for a failing that wasn’t even theirs), just makes me think this is a really weird choice. To a point, he lets things slide, like with Akaza and Rui weakening themselves, but no matter how strong Kokushibo is, I genuinely believe that it would be completely in line with his character to kill Kokushibo for being a walking reminder of his most powerless moment.

Then, it occurred to me; Kokushibo is Muzan’s subordinate, a man he renames, brands and commands. He reads Kokushibo’s thoughts, and always knows what he’s doing. Muzan orders him to obey, and Kokushibo accepts this role passively. I imagine that having control over Kokushibo is soothing to Muzan’s ego, almost like by asserting influence and control over Kokushibo, Muzan takes back control from Yoriichi.

Which is also why Muzan really, really freaks out when Kokushibo defects. He can’t ever accept not being perfectly powerful and in control. He orders every demon alive to kill Kokushibo, but it’s not enough. Muzan needs to have something real on Yoriichi— but with Kokushibo vanished, the only thing Muzan has is Yoriichi’s old, dead body.

And thus begins Muzan’s deranged side quest to Frankenstein Yoriichi’s dead body into that of a demon subordinate!!

It works out, but it mostly does not work out. The Upper Moon One Yoriichi is closer to a thoughtless demon automaton who happens to wield a mimicry of the real Yoriichi’s skill than actually Yoriichi

Anyway, long answer short, the divorce court was settled quickly, and Muzan rebounded with Michikatsu��s brother as revenge

:(((

Hi, @ep-10 ! I was your truce gifter this year for @phandomholidaytruce and I decided to use your prompts for a Japanese ghost--kinda, but mostly for a biopunk fantasy au. You're getting some character designs for a biopunk fantasy AU set in a world suspiciously similar to Sengoku era Japan! And also backstory. Mostly backstory, really.

Warning for someone getting baked alive in a kiln.

I mean, we all know who.

Jack and Maddie Fenton are a married pair of researcher/alchemists who've been brought into the country with the influence of an old friend of theirs, Vlad. He wants them to figure out the secret to producing porcelain, an expensive and magically versatile ceramic with a production process that's a closely guarded secret in a nearby, much more economically powerful country.

To this end, Vlad has supplied the Fentons with enough wealth and resources to not ask things like "where did you get this?" and "what exactly is going to happen when it gets out that we're trying to make porcelain?"

As it turns out, this is a very important question, because together the pair piece together how to build a kiln that burns hotter than any they've ever seen before and for the very first time make the coveted porcelain.

The victory is short lived: their son Daniel goes missing that very day, and then their search for him is waylaid by another discovery: some of the porcelain is coming to life, animated by a horrific amalgam of flesh and vitriol. They must find Danny, but first they must make sure the monsters they've made are destroyed…

So! The three big players in our cast of characters here are Jack, Maddie, and poor, poor Danny. They are coincidentally the only ones I had time to do a character design for, so let's look at Jack first, who is holding an experimental porcelain vase:

That's quite an outfit. It's, uh. Not quite standard in the Sengoku: while he's wearing a hitatare, it's been modified, and he's chosen not to wear pants because it's technically not, like, a crime. I chose this for him because Jack:

a) Does not care about what everyone thinks of what he's wearing, or he wouldn't wear a jumpsuit all the time in canon b) Hates the feel of most clothes

Hitatare were growing in popularity during the Sengoku because of how comfortable they were, so it seemed a good fit for Jack. They didn't necessarily need to be worn with hakama if you were of a lower class, but it would be frowned upon to go without if you were off a higher class.

The modifications he and Maddie have made to it make it even less restrictive than a standard hitatare, and a bit more suited to their work of experimenting with kilns and clay.

The obi is stitched into place, so it doesn't actually act like a belt and put a line of pressure across Jack's stomach, and they've added a button to the side to hold the hitatare closed, instead. The stitching around the sleeve openings is pretty archaic by this point, but they've kept (or added) it so he can draw the openings closed when he wants, and a second draw string runs along his sleeve to let him draw the sleeves away from his hands when needed, while still letting him let them extend to their full length to act as a barrier between his skin and unpleasant textures.

He's got some leather gloves and a pair of very early goggles to protect his hands and eyes from the heat of the kilns.

The geta act as an additional layer of protection against bad textures, since they should keep him above mud.

Maddie, here holding a shattered fragment of porcelain, is dressed far less eccentrically, because this (left) is before the porcelain came to life. She's just wearing a kosode with hakama and a leather apron. (She has gloves too, they're just tucked away at her back) The smaller sleeves stay out of the way while she works, and the hakama are roomy. She's wearing waraji, because she prefers what I assume is more stable footing and a lower center of gravity.

This is especially true after they start fighting the porcelain. Pictured here, you can see she keeps her hair out of her face with a standard low ponytail, and the Fenton Anti-Creep stick manages to still exist in this world, despite all odds.

This Anti-Creep stick is a bokken with embedded teeth of broken porcelain for a better shattering potential--metal, especially enough metal of sufficient quality for a sword, is expensive, and they're dealing with something that's only a stronger ceramic…

Which brings us to the kiln. And, to his great misfortune, to Danny.

This is a multi-chambered climbing kiln. While I don't think it's the first kiln that allowed firing temperatures to reach that required for porcelain in Japan in our world, it's the most common and appeared around the same time as that first one. The design of it encourages airflow in a way that traps and directs heat to build it on itself and distribute it reasonably evenly.

The kiln chambers would get filled with the pots to be fired, then they would set a fire in the little step down in each chamber. Then they would seal the kiln chambers entrances with fire bricks, except for a small stoking hole to keep the fires fed.

Then they'd light the main fire at the mouth to the first, lowest chamber called the stoke hole and the fire box respectively.

And then they would keep the fires lit, and feed them, wood upon wood upon wood…

Until eventually, the kiln warmed, grew sweltering, grew hot, hot like fire, like iron in a forge and then hotter still, until the whole of the inside glows.

Like the center of the earth.

…

At the lowest, porcelain requires a firing temperature of 1000 degrees. Celsius.

Brass melts, at that temperature. Porcelain itself gets its strength from melting.

And Danny…

Danny tripped. Danny was loading one of the chambers, and he tripped and he hit his head and by the time he woke he was sweating.

He tried to crawl away from where he knew the fires were. The flue, where the spent air left the kiln, has charred finger marks where his burnt away after the carbon dioxide and heat drove him unconscious a second time.

It was a mercy.

By the time he woke again, his body was cooling.

You see, the Fentons enchanted the kiln to make it try to repair pieces that were falling apart during the firing process. And, if one piece was destroyed in the firing anyway, to use the fragments to reinforce the other pieces in the kiln.

Danny was in the kiln. Danny's body failed.

Bone ash is not a critical ingredient in porcelain, but its presence makes it much, much stronger.

Danny woke up made of porcelain.

His sandals left black on the soles of his feet and the fingers on one hand that had burned looked skeletal. But he woke up.

And he ran.

Later, he'll find help. Later, he'll find a way to fight the other things in the kiln that day, and the results of later firings. Later, he'll meet a boy who loves puzzles and information and who teaches him how to use a bow and arrow to keep his fragile body intact. He'll meet a girl who loves foraging (partly because it gets her away from her parents) but loves justice more.

(Whether he'll stop wearing his clothes like a corpse is another question.)

Danny here is wearing something hitatare adjacent and hakama, along with a yugake.

Happy truce!

@latenightsonrooftops wh-what other aus do u have? 👉🏽 👈🏽 asking for a friend (me, i'm the friend) it's okay it won't overwhelm me, i'll just take some time to respond if that's okay 🥺

high school au is basically kimetsu gakuen au for idiots squad and i have so many things i wanna write about it heheheh

Kimetsu Gakuen!AU

- actually i'm behind on the kimetsu gakuen series so i can't remember the exact name of tanjirou's class, but just know that he's the vice president of the class to ayame's class president

- ayame is actually very very busy. she's also vice-captain of the kendo club, she has an acapella group with zenitsu, nezuko, kanao and genya, on top of her class duties

- i feel like the only time ayame actually relaxes is when she's hanging out with tanjirou, zenitsu and inosuke. i mean, there's still plenty of shenaniganery happening there, but it's the kind she doesn't have to think about, and she finds it relaxing

- tanjirou does not find his friend group relaxing at all. they're his main source of stress, actually

- he still wouldn't trade them for the world

- ayame and tanjirou, naturally, grew up as neighbours, but in that kind of detached way where they just kinda revolve around each other rather than actually interacting with each other

- they only became actual friends after tanjirou's father passed, actually. the kamados practically lived with the higuchis after tanjurou's death. by the time their first year of high school started, tanjirou and ayame definitely saw each other as friends

- they're the only ones who think they're only friends

- hanabi and kotoha were friends, so after inosuke was found, hanabi kinda adopted inosuke as her own. not officially, but inosuke is a common sight in the higuchi household. akihiko is thrilled bc he basically has a little brother now - in addition to tanjirou (who he already sees as a future brother-in-law and "Just what the hell is that supposed to mean, Niichan?!"), takeo, shigeru and rokuta

- i've mentioned this before in passing but tanjirou is part of the baseball club! a fave idiots squad activity is going to school baseball games where ayame and zenitsu trash talk the opposing team and inosuke gets into fights with mascots

- he just really wants to be the school mascot dammit

- listen. LISTEN. one day i will write that kimegaku tanyame one shot titled "five times tanjirou wondered what ayame's lip balm tasted like + the one time he found out without asking"

- also i can imagine that there's a school festival and the kendo club jokingly puts theirs as a kissing booth, not expecting it to get approved

- uzui sensei is a troll and thought it was very flamboyant

- u can imagine how panicked tanjirou was. also zenitau, but that's bc he's the in-universe president of the tanyame club and he can't have ayame kissing some other person and falling for THEM instead

- guys it's just cheek kisses for 100 yen. no one is going to fork out a thousand yen (roughly $10) just to kiss ayame on the lips

- zenitsu also starts up a small fund for the thousand yen so tanjirou can finally kiss ayame

- "come on, tanjirou, it's for charity!"

- charity my ass. u just want tanjirou and ayame to kiss and u don't care what it takes

- i don't know how this ends, i just like the idea of zenitsu and tanjirou actively sabotaging people who try to get kisses from ayame. inosuke is also sabotaging but that's more of a happy coincidence than criminal intent

Sengoku Squad High School!AU

- teehee an excuse to write my second-fave squad!!!!!! hooray!!!!!!

- listen i can't remember how much younger keichirou is to fujiko. i only remember that he's younger. probably by one year????

- p sure fujiko, yoriichi and michikatsu are the same age tho!

- anyway fujiko and yoriichi are in the same class and they're seatmates, but they don't interact much other than asking each other questions about coursework

- fujiko and michikatsu are in the same after school club tho ^^ not kendo bc these two are soooo not jocks. maybe like debate club or chess club or something. maybe even av club -

- no listen okay listen: yoriichi is in band

- (it probably reminds him of uta, who was his childhood love and he was convinced he was gonna marry her until she moved away and broke his heart at the tender age of seven)

- michikatsu is like - the popular kid, right? like the stereotypical popular kid who's kinda aloof and even though he's a certified nerd. between u and me, it's because he's hot for sure

- yoriichi is popular for the same reason. i mean, identical twins, am i right? i bet yoriichi is in both band and kendo, bc yoriichi gives me like lowkey jock vibes (or maybe it's cos he reminds me of tanjirou idk) which makes him actually a little more popular than michikatsu

- fujiko is the girl who doesn't even realise she's popular. hell, she doesn't even realise her friends are popular. she just thinks they're Some Guys

- fujiko is also popular bc she's like the tutor the teachers recommend for like half the subjects taught, since she's one of those really bright and patient people

- (i have a crush on fujiko)

- michikatsu also handles the subjects that fujiko doesn't, but he's intimidating™️

- on keichirou's first day of school, fujiko makes an embarrassing banner to welcome him that she coerced michikatsu and yoriichi into helping her with

- yes keichirou is popular - first by association, then by his own merits. he's in football (soccer) and baseball! he's not allowed in kendo cos he's, like, semi-professional and he only wants to represent his family dojo exclusively

- yeah so anyone with eyes can see that fujiko and yoriichi have a Thing going on between them

- fujiko is so in denial about her feelings for yoriichi that she might as well relocate to egypt

- yoriichi is just straight up unaware

- fujiko and yoriichi are voted most likely to become a couple after high school - cos they sure as hell aren't gonna get their shit tgt before then

- idk i'm just 🥰🥰🥰 at the idea of the sengoku era squad in high school cos i want all the good things for them 😭

someone please ask me some fits au asks 🥺 it can be for an au i already have or bringing up an au you have 🥺 but only if u want my take on it!!!!!!

SessKag Week 2024 Theme Breakdown

*

You'll find the week's prompts here!

*

Day 1

Canon Compliant

Canon compliant fics follow the canon exactly and don't alter the setting or canonical plot events too drastically. An example of a canon compliant fic would be for example a retelling of a specific scene from another character's point of view.

VS

Modern AU

Modern AU is a fic that takes place in a contemporary setting instead of the work's canonical setting. In SessKag, modern AU fics are typically set in modern day Japan. They can either still feature youkai and miko, or be all human AUs as well.

*

Day 2

Canon divergence

Canon divergence fics follow canon up to a point. They take place in the canon setting and may follow the canonical plotline fairly closely, before they began to spin off to their own direction. "What if Kikyo didn't die?" "What if Kagome never went back to the Feudal era?" "What if Kagome met Sesshoumaru first?" are all types of canon divergent fic scenarios.

VS

Historical AU

A fic that takes place in an alternative setting that's in a different time period than the canonical setting. For SessKag, this could be anything any other time period than Sengoku era and up to the 1990s. SessKag in Heian era? Meiji era? Regency England? Any other time is a fair game.

*

Day 3

Missing Episode

Missing episode, or a missing scene fic, is canon compliant fic that is set between specific canon events, but it is a moment that's never actually shown to the audience.

VS

Fusion AU

Fusion AUs are types of crossovers, where you take the plot and/or setting of Fandom 1 and the characters from Fandom 2 and mash it all up. If you see a fic described as "SessKag Star Wars AU" or "SessKag Pride and Prejudice AU", those are type of fusion fics.

*

Day 4

Pre-Canon

Pre-canon, or pastfic, is a fic that is set before the events of the canon. It could be a flashback or delve into the character's backstory.

VS

Fantasy/Scifi AU

Fantasy or Scifi AU could be any kind of AU that incorporates fantasy or scifi elements in it. It could be a fairy tale retelling, some kind of a Isekai scenario, a Fae/Werewolf/Vampire AU or a zombie apocalypse.

*

Day 5

Canon Reunion

Broadly, this could mean any canonical reunion scene. With SessKag, though, the type of canon divergent modern era reunion fics where Sesshoumaru and Kagome meet again in modern day after Kagome never returns to the Feudal era are popular, so I had those in mind when I chose this theme.

VS

All human AU

All human AU is an AU in which the characters that are not human in the canon (e.g. Sesshoumaru) are human. High school or College AUs are a popular type of an all human AU. An all human AU does not have to be set in a modern day, however.

*

Day 6

Post Canon

Post canon or a futurefic is a fic that takes place after the canon has ended, usually several years later.

VS

Royalty AU

Royalty AU is a type of an AU story in which one or several characters are a member of a royal family. Whether the story takes place in a historical, fantasy or contemporary setting is up to the writer. Tropes that go hand in hand with this type of AU are arranged marriage or bodyguard fics, for example.

Their little secret 🤭

Time setting: Taisho era. NOT sengoku era.

Sum. Michikatsu(koku) Taisho era!AU is dating y/n but they haven't told anyone and never planned to. Y/n always gets flirted with by all the males in the dsc. Since nobody knows she's taken. Until...

WARNINGS 🫶😣: Wall sex 🤭, vaginal penetration, public-ish sex, and getting caught 😋.

MINORSS D.N.I 🗿

"Y'know~ I have room for one more wife?"

*here we go againn.* She rolled her eyes as she looked at michikatsu and then to tengen who has just asked her out again for the 100th time today.

"Tengen, my answer is never gonna change so please stop asking me." She politely answered again slowly losing her patience while michikatsu glared at him with jealousy and anger.

"It'll change one day, especially when you realize just how handsome and perfect I truly am~!" He stated in a singsong voice but when he opened his eyes he was met with no one. "Damn, she left again."

She sighed as michikatsu put her down when he knew they were at a safe distance. "I'm gonna kill him." He said through gritted teeth trying to keep his cool. "Don't do that besides they don't know we're together so what exactly do you expect from em?" He thought for a moment realizing she was right but still hated they even dare think they have a chance with someone like her. "Y/n." He said more calmly. She tilted her head to show her acknowledgement. "I have to go on a mission soon, promise me you'll be able to take care of yourself." He said in a more worried tone as she smiled at him and hugged him tightly. "ofc."

He was gone for a really long time and sanemi began joining in again, since it was mainly uzui and sanemi to try and shoot their shot. It went from compliments about her face to unusual compliments on her body.

Sanemi couldn't stop getting extremely close to her, they would be inches away from each other while uzui would almost corner her, since michikatsu was around she has no one to protect her but she knew he would be home soon and the constant flirting would soon relax a little.

Sanemi and uzui couldn't seem to find her anywhere, they looked in every spot she'd usually be in so they both began looking in rooms.

"ah-"

Both their ears perked up, there it was your voice it wasn't really faint so you were near, maybe you were playing hide and seek with them as hit your head.

"Mph!"

Two sounds? Maybe it wasn't a game and she was touching herself to the thought of them. Their smirks built up confidently walking towards the door but the door was cracked open so instead of inviting themselves in the just listened for a little bit.

"Michi, please is.. fuck.. is this really appropriate, I mean here now? Anyone could walk in!" Her breath was heavy and it was almost difficult for her to speak, both boys curiosity got the better of them as they peeked into the room their eyes widening at the site they were seeing.

Y/n's back arched as pressed against the wall, her legs spread completely open for all eyes to see, drool dripping from her mouth and tears streaming down her face, her kimono lazily hanging off her shoulders, as michikatsu has her pinned completely to the wall his cock plowing her brains in mercilessly.

"The only way we'd get caught lovely is if you keep making those sweet sweet sounds~" his voice was raspy and his thrusts were hard and never losing rhythm, it was like a melody he's played many times, he continued to say sweet things to her after that since he missed her so much.

The boys felt themselves get hard just by the sight and noises. That's when it finally hit them why she's been rejecting them she has a boyfriend!

The boys didn't think they could keep a secret and they were right cause they couldn't cause during the hashira meeting they spilled the tea to everyone and the rest of the meeting was completely awkward since everyone began asking the couple questions.

Character: Fujiko from Fog in the Summertime by authorinprogress97 on ao3

[selenacosmic]

Alright, so I've been thinking...would you be up for doing a short fic/one shot of ikesen Shingen and female reader (or MC or even an OC you have) of perhaps a cute fluffy date? Feel free to ignore this request if you'd rather not. But I love your HC's and I'd love to see more work if you would feel up to it :) <3

Hello! I would love to do this! I actually thought it would be fun to use my OC, if you don’t mind! I have been so focused on Shingen’s and my OC’s interactions in the modern AU fic I am writing that it would be nice to write a date with them in the sengoku era.

A summer date.

The warm summer’s sun was shining down brightly upon Kai, specially in the commercial area where the shops were flooded and business was flourishing smoothly. It was the perfect time for a date as well, shingen had decided to take the day off so that we could go out and see how things were going in town. With my own work in the kitchen of the castle and as the lady of Tsutsujigasaki castle, we were both too busy to have a proper date in a while.

Personally, I have always preferred our private dates, like having a picnic under a tree or enjoying a casual boat ride. Even just moon gazing was perfect for a date to me, but I was never against public dates such as these. I enjoyed looking around Kai with him, to see his people… our people.

“There are quite a lot of people today. Think we can find a good tea shop to have a seat?” His tone of voice was cheerful as he looked around, a smile gracing his lips.

“You are always thinking about the sweets at the very start of the date.” I gave him a halfhearted scolding while poking his cheek lightly, not able to contain myself from smiling. “If we can’t find one, we could always give the market place another walk until a seat is available.”

His hand held mine tightly, as protectively as possible the closer the crowd was. “While that sounds great, I can’t let my angel walk until her feet get hurt. At one point I will need to carry you.”

A giggle escaped my lips, despite his words being silly, I knew for a fact that he was serious about his statement. Turning my head around, I managed to see many shops selling a myriad of different items. “There are so many beautiful things being sold, it’s good to see Kai like this.”

“I am happy that I can live to see Kai like this.” That made me turn my attention back to him, that content smile on his face made my own heart flutter. His gray eyes turned towards me as we stopped walking right in front of an accessories shop. “Your hair looks specially beautiful today, but it is missing something.” Shingen ran his fingers through my loosened hair, turning his attention to the vendor. “Excuse me, I would like to see all of your hairpins.”

My face was tinted with red at how sweet and quick he was to buy something for me. “You are being too sweet, but i don’t think I need a new hairpin.”

“Would it convince you if I said that it’s a pleasure to me to buy things for you? Specially if it means I can dress you up in beautiful clothes and accessories?” His hand found its way towards my face, where his thumb gently ran across my lower lip, that infamous wink already convincing me.

“I see you haven’t changed even after getting married, my lord.” The vendor spoke with enthusiasm, casually smiling at shingen. That was something you wouldn’t normally see around this era.

“What can I say? There isn’t a day that goes by when I don’t worship my angel.” As he spoke with the vendor, he looked around the hairpins that were put in front of him.

“My lady, surely you would like to have a look around yourself? There must be something here you will like.” The vendor beckoned me to look at his accessories as well, which I happily did.

As I was distracted by the beautiful items on display, I felt something being delicately placed on my head. Shingen was placing the hairpins on my hair, likely to see which one looked the best. “Hmm… this isn’t good.”

“My lord, is there something wrong with the hairpins?” Both the vendor and I became worried, since it was unlike shingen to seem displeased with something.

“On the contrary… all of these look too perfect on Selena, I am inclined to buy all of them.” He said it with a straight face, as if his words were serious. Though, coming from shingen, he likely was being serious.

“Am I to understand that I have brand new accessories for this season?” I didn’t hate the idea, having brand new accessories to innovate would be nice, but too many was just overwhelming.

His smile was enough for me to understand his intentions, normally i would decline so many, but the vendor seemed so happy with the big purchase that i couldn’t stop him. Perhaps i could give some of these hairpins to the maids at the castle, they would surely love them.

We decided to keep walking around the market area, looking around the shops with enthusiasm. I myself insisted on buying things for shingen, I noted that the gifts should be ocean themed, I knew how much he loved it. It was only when the sun was finally setting that we noticed we were both tired and hungry, though it seemed like the tea shops were mostly flooded.

“Looks like there isn’t any spot available… and i don’t know if we can walk around the market all over again.” Even though I was the one who suggested it, i couldn’t bring myself to walk more.

“Unfortunately, it seems like you are right, but I didn’t have any intention of eating at a tea shop today.” I looked at him with confusion since early he had said otherwise, shingen only gave me an easy smile without answering my question. Before I could question him, shingen scooped me up in his arms, something he said he would do. “I know you don’t enjoy long walks, it’s surprising you walked this much around the market place with me.”

“W-well, I was enjoying our time together, so I didn’t really mind it.” Despite how comfortable it was in his arms, I began feeling self conscious about being carried by him while we were still in public.

But I suppose it wasn’t a surprise to people here that their lord was very affectionate, so it wasn’t as embarrassing as i thought it would be. Although i didn’t know what he was planning, i decided to trust shingen and let him carry me to where he wanted.

————

The path shingen took was confusing to me, since it seemed like we were going back to the castle. I looked up at him to try and understand what exactly he was planning.

“I can hear your thoughts.” Those words brought me back to reality, which made me notice that we were, in fact, going back to the castle.

“You are acting suspiciously. You never miss going to a tea shop whenever we are out in town, and you even wanted to stop by one.” I finally made my questions explicit, though i imagine that it wasn’t necessary, he knew what I was thinking.

“I did say that, though I must apologize for deceiving you, angel.” Shingen finally put me down, taking my hand so that he could guide me back to the castle. “Actually, there is something I prepared for when we got back.”

That made me excited, anticipation building up within me. I let him guide me through the corridors of Tsutsujigasaki, until we were in front of our bedroom door.

“Your surprise was in our room?” My head tilted to the side lightly, as I wondered what was inside. Shingen was quick to act when he noticed my confusion.

“Both of our work has kept us from doing anything other than sleeping from being tired. I thought it would be nice for us to have a relaxing day in town and enjoy our evening here.

Shingen slides open the door to our room, revealing the table to be filled with sweets and sake, as well as our futon neatly arranged near the table. Everything was ready for us to only leave the room next morning.

A gasp escaped from me as i noticed all of our favorite food waiting at the table. I quickly glanced his way to notice that warm smile on his face. “Selena, won’t you spend this evening solely with me?”

I immediately smiled at that, throwing my arms around his neck so that I could steal a kiss from his lips. He helped me up as I had to stand on the tip of my toes to reach him. “Of course I will! It’s too sweet of you to prepare all of this.”

To others, it might not seem like much. But given all of the days when we didn’t get to spend that much time together, a date inside our room where we could be alone together was just… perfect.

The end…

i have a dream last night which is about yansim student council 1980s (includes my OC Elena)in a 2d fighting combat game like samurai shodown.and this is an Sengoku AU.

only remember what Elena and Daisaku wear in my dream.

Elena is based on Gracia from Samurai Warriors.she dressed liked a western lady,and seems she has Western Christianity.Her mother is from western.

weird,Daisaku wears ripped jeans but it is supposed to be a Sengoku era...

i dont remember what the others wear...

Jose is a ninja but he is from western.based on a character from Samurai Warriors 5

Reiichi is based on Andrew from Samurai Shodown 5(?)

Ken is also based on a character from Samurai Warriors.

also,Elena,Reiichi and Daisaku are unlockable characters and they can be unlocked through the Arcade/Story mode in game.

my dream can always be a interesting concept for making an AU

it could be a very fun fangame xd
