fundamentally the whole concept of shikigami aya is yukari conceptually murdering* aya shameimaru for less than morally untarnished reasons. there’s not really anything more you can get out of the concept than that; the shikigami itself is a castle in the sky that one paints from one’s own ideas (and i’ve not seen it executed interestingly, unfortunately.) i have seen nothing here more interesting conceptually than just the canonical idea of Ran Existing

*see the way that possession by vengeful spirits affects youkai as referenced in SoPM

#strangely enough the one shikigami aya fic incoporated vengeful spirits but entirely incorrectly #and with zero trepidation on yukari’s part at all. yeah here’s this handful of sarin i’m going to shove into you #without the slightest worry at all.#yeah here’s this handful of sarin i’m going to shove into you barehanded. oh the effects? yeah you’ll get minor brain damage #but be mostly the same #phineas gage shit. complete misunderstanding of youkai conceptually #as for what i mean by ‘less than morally untarnished reasons’:#fundamentally there is no reason for yukari to choose aya besides the fact that she is physically attractive and somewhat strong.
