So there’s this post going around complaining about Masamune’s story and it’s been irritating me, but I’m not going to link to it why bother, because the OP may decide to delete it, change URLs, whatever have you.

Am I the only one who understands why Masamune's event story is the way it is? 

Masamune didn't have a good life growing up, and unfortunately that information doesn't come out until you do both his romantic and dramatic route and pull the gacha story for finishing both routes, called Drops of Happiness. Now whether you have done it or not is besides the point.

!! SPOILERS FOR DROPS OF HAPPINESS PREMIUM HERE ALSO !!

Here’s some facts that are in the premium that is actually from history itself: 

His mother Yoshihime has attempted to kill Masamune several times while growing up. I'm not sure if the younger brother is written into his background because I never saw it in the Drops of Happiness premium, but Yoshihime has favoured his younger brother Kojiro in hopes that he would take up the heir of both the Date and Mogami clans. 

Because of the strained relationships, they now live in separate castles.

Masamune doesn’t talk about his parents because he had mentors raising him every single step of the way. He always acts cool about it and isn’t the type to coddle.

According to some stories, Masamune went and killed Kojiro in retaliation when Yoshihime had attempted to poison him one time. Masamune had a wet nurse named Kita Katakura (Kojuro’s older sister) who practically raised him.

Another fact brought up in many ikesen events (especially in Masamune’s route, and in the wedding event earlier this year through Ieyasu’s story and Kenshin’s story): 

Marriages in the Sengoku era are political. The only thing the wife is there for is to spread her legs to make babies, tutor them, and look pretty and gossip to other samurai wives. It doesn’t matter if you love someone else, so if you’re betrothed to another man that isn’t your lover, you’re getting married to your betrothed whether you like it or not. At no point is that bride just as much obligated to love her children, because the point is that you’re able to grant an heir to the clan, because they want to make sure the clan succeeds through that child. If you can’t conceive a boy, it’s time to bring in a concubine.

If you haven’t read Masamune’s event story for How To Raise A Child, please stop here.

I’m sure we’re all pissed that Soujiro didn’t get the attention he deserved and was neglected as a result. I’m sure we’re all pissed that the mother didn’t give her affections and favoured one child over another, and that’s why Soujiro ran away.

But ohhhh boy. This is NOT uncommon. When there’s more than one son, there will always be the power struggle of who’s next in line. As mentioned above, Yoshihime had tried to kill Masamune so that Kojiro could become the next leader of the Date clan so he could inherit both the Date and Mogami, also deeming that Masamune wasn’t fit to be the ruler and the loss of his right eye was validation to her reasoning. ( I’m sure this is how he started his belief in becoming the ideal leader to prove her wrong, that he is more than capable of being a great leader despite losing an eye when he was a child. )

I’ll admit, going into this event, I didn’t think I was prepared to see Masamune be a doting father figure but...

...How to raise a child? Of course Masamune isn’t an expert in this, and neither is MC, but if you’re looking for a more motherly-like MC, then you’d have to be looking at Hideyoshi or Mitsunari’s MC.  Things back then are a lot different than they are now. To say this is wrong to do this, yes, it’s wrong, but it’s not an uncommon when you consider the time period and where this child is coming from. Right from how he spoke off the bat had red-flagged Masamune and MC that he could possibly be from a samurai family, and they had to treat him accordingly, not some random commoner kid who got to live freely and play in the streets without having to worry about sword practice or ikebana lessons. They aren’t raising a child of their own, but a kid who is raised under a samurai roof with the expectation of knowing what it’s like to be an adult before he even gets to his teenage years. In the end, this kid has to go back to his family, and be the proof that even if his mom doesn’t like him, he can prove his worth just like Masamune did. Had this kid been theirs, he definitely would’ve been the cool-looking, hands-on (and apparently more of the spontaneous idiot some people paint him for) kind of dad, and I expected that. Instead, Masamune gave the subtle reminder of “hey, this kid isn’t mine or MC’s, so I can’t go treating him like that if he belongs to another family” because wow, what are the chances you’re harbouring the child of an enemy clan.

I know MC would’ve been upset and raising arms over Soujiro being neglected, but she has no idea how to raise samurai families. When she found out about Masamune’s past, she was ready to raise arms, but instead, decided to offer him comfort for the tears he never could shed in his entire life. She had made peace with the fact that families from her time aren’t going to be the same as samurai families in the Sengoku era, but it DOES NOT MEAN she condones this kind of behaviour. If anything, Masamune is the expert in this situation, and he takes the lead in how to handle this properly. 

I know “suck it up” was a hard shock to me and the MC, but you have to realize this is the 16th century of samurais and nobility, where everything is about money, power and having the most beautiful woman on your arm. Nothing is going to be a field of flowers unless you’re like MC from the beginning of Masamune’s route who never experienced war because war no longer exists in her time period. (Also if we want to get technical, that means she would be from the year 2082 since the game started in 1582 when Nobunaga was supposed to die.) Of course, we don’t know anything about Soujiro until 5 days into his stay, and everything happens there, but at least we can see MC worrying for the kid. Had they been their usual eccentric selves, the kid would’ve retreated into his shell even more BUT there is a hint to Masamune’s fatherly side, where he is being patient and waiting for Soujiro’s willingness to open his mouth. When Soujiro goes to work, Masamune didn’t tell him specifically what to do to work this kid to the bone. It’s like doing your chores in exchange for a good treat. No one likes to be told to go do their chores in exchange for what they want, but Soujiro is mature in how he behaves around Masamune, and does what he can. Like MC trying to work rather than playing princess around Azuchi.

There’s so much I can probably throw here but my brain has gone kaput so please have this post and I hope people understand why this story event isn’t shit.

I don’t usually defend Cybird’s stuff (I’m up in arms about other things, but that’s salt that I don’t have time for), so enjoy this post because I’m diving back into my fanfics now.

Huzzah for Sengoku Basara! After reading those headcanons, I demand fluff with Yukimura please! ^.^ maybe he is getting advice on how to confess his feelings from someone like Sasuke or even Masamune?

Of course it had to be Masamune. It’s not pure fluff but with a Happy End (on at least one side)

A branch broke under his foot, the sound echoing through the huge forest and making it sound as if all of the trees were laughing at him.

And Yukimura couldn’t even be mad at them for laughing about such an idiot as he was.

It had begun so beautiful! The sun was shining, the day was about to start great and he was on the market, looking for some fresh vegetables for a snack… until this…. This…

He sighed and sat on a fallen tree, looking at his hands and thinking about this young woman that had stolen his heart. How should he approach her? Should he approach her at all? Should he blankly tell her that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her?! Or was it too much after having seen her just this one time?

“Are you lost?”

He stood up, ready to battle, when he recognized the unruly hair and its master.

“Lord Date!”

“Shut up!” The other placed his hand on Yukimura’s mouth and looked around frantically.

“Are you running away from responsibility again?” Sanada asked mumbled through the hand.

The Lord snorted.

“I am NEVER running away, got that?!”

Yukimura laughed and nodded, breathing in after the other took his hand away.

“Kojuro never understands a joke,” the one-eyed dragon complained and settled on the same tree as Yukimura had sat on just a minute ago.

“Poor Katakura has enough on his plate without your practical jokes. What did you do this time?” Without a seat left, he sat down on the ground, facing Masamune.

“Hah! He needed to cool his head a bit. I just helped!!”

Yukimura stifled a laugh, imagining the poor man having water poured on him.

“See? It’s funny!”

“I guess.”

“And you? Who did you piss off?”

“No one!”

Masamune laughed and patted Yukimura’s head.

“Sure thing. But you look distressed. Better get back in shape so I can beat your ass!”

“I want to marry a woman!”

Silence followed this bold statement. Moments passed and Yukimura began to wonder if he had defeated the always on-guard Masamune.

“Is it that bad?” he finally asked.

Date shook his head and cocked a dirty grin.

“So, will we be settling it before or after the wedding?”

This time Yukimura was silent, wondering if he ever would have the courage to talk to that woman.

“Aaaah, that’s a bad vibe there, Sanada! What’s with it? She already got another man?”

“I never talked to her!” he could feel the heat rushing through his face, leaving him blushing in front of his biggest rival.

Who stared at him.

“You-…. What?!”

Yukimura shook his head in defeat. Of course he had to reveal his misery to Date!

“But how can you marry her??”

“I don’t! I can’t!! I… I saw her this morning on the market and she smiled and I would give up any fight for this smile! My heart belongs to this woman and her beautiful smile and she…” Again a hand was placed on his mouth to stop his rambling.

“Got it. But do you at least know her name?”

Again a shake of the head, making Masamune sigh.

“You saw a woman. And you know nothing but you want to marry her. How about you talk to her first??”

“But how?!”

“How? Go to her and say hi?”

“I could never!”

“Why?”

“Because she is too pretty! You can’t just go to a goddess and say hi!”

“Why not?”

A small thought found a place in Yukimura’s mind.

“Did you ever talk to a woman you like?”

Masamune bristled by this direct question.

“Sure!”

Yukimura grinned, knowing it was a lie.

“And did you just say hi?”

“Yes!”

“And then she told her that she loved you and you married her and everything is alright?”

The Lord grumbled and crossed his arms.

“Fine, you win. But I have other things to do than to concern myself with women!”

“Men?”

“Want to die?”

Sanada raised his hands defensively and laughed while shaking his head.

“So, how about a gift then?” Date finally said.

“A gift?”

“For your lady! Give her something.”

“What should I give her?”

“Something pretty??”

“But nothing is pretty enough for her!”

“Listen up! Just get something and give it to her. Women love gifts!”

“But how will she know who I am?”

“Are you stupid?! I think everyone in Kai knows you. And now get going before…”

A splash of icy cold water was dumped on the Lord of Oshu, leaving him a shrieking and shivering mess while Katakura stepped forward, grinning like a madman.

“You need to ‘cool down’, Lord Masamune!” he told his protégé, imitating his speech pattern.

Laughing, his lord nodded and wiped the water out of his face, only to point at Yukimura.

“He’s got a problem.”

Kojuro nodded.

“It’s easy to hear you two throughout the whole forest and I think she knows by now. Lord Masamune, let us go back. Your men are already waiting.”

Behind his back, something moved and both younger men were ready to strike when a young woman appeared, wildly blushing, holding a basket of mushrooms and flowers.

Yukimura gasped, leaving Masamune grinning and patting his shoulder.

“That’s a cute one! You have my leave to marry that one!”

The Takeda man nodded furiously and blushed as he heard the woman laugh.

“I met her on the way looking for the source of this noise,” Kojuro explained, gently shoving Masamune in the other direction to give the other two some privacy. On his way he shoved something in Yukimura’s hand, winking.

“So you really are the great general that’s protecting us?” the woman asked, looking and talking to her basket.

Yukimura watched the hairpin in his hand and tried to remember that he had to thank Katakura someday.

“For you!” He held it out to her with closed eyes, not daring to look at her.

“What a beautiful hairpin! General, you are the most chivalrous man I ever met!”

“You’re really beautiful.”

She shied away from his words, hiding her red face behind her hands, smiling from behind them.

“AH! What is your name??” he asked, remembering that he didn’t even knew that.

“Yuki.”

He laughed at her name and finally something snapped and released him from his anxiousness.

“What a beautiful name for someone as beautiful as you!” he told her as he held out his hand to her as an offer to carry the basket for her.

With a shy smile she obliged and gave it to him.

“I am sorry but I overheard your words,” she admitted in a small voice, blushing heavily again. But Yukimura grinned at her.

“Then you know how I feel already! I am relieved!”

“I would like to meet you more often before marriage, though.”

He laughed and almost ran into the next tree, embarrassed about his boldness.

“I think that would be a great idea.”

 “Oi, Kojuro.”

“Hm?”

“Do you always carry around gifts for women?”

“It’s my sister’s birthday today.”

The young Lord paled as he had forgotten about it and suddenly remembered why his most loyal servant had been so stressed.

“A feast, hm?” he asked cautiously.

“Before I and all the plans were soaked. Yes.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Apologize to her and not to me.”

“I can’t!”

“Why? Can’t you talk to women now?”

“You know why!! She will kill me!”

“Why don’t you just try and give her a gift? A wise man once said ‘Women love gifts’.”

Kojuro laughed and spurred on his horse to leave Masamune behind him to think about his careless words.

SLBP “The Bride’s Memories, Fleeting as Tears in Rain” Event Review

Props to Voltage for exploring past the traditional happily ever after! This event has been a little surprising to me in several ways - first, I didn’t expect it to ever exist, and second, well...let’s just say there is no correlation between how much I like a character and how good I thought their stories were, lol. My personal ranking, from least to most fave:

In Masamune’s ES, Hideyoshi and the Hojo clan are preparing to go to war against each other. Both of them want the Date clan to help...and both of them want MC as a hostage as well. WTF? The retainers are split, Masamune’s obviously reluctant to do anything, and MC ends up getting chloroformed by Hojo sympathizers at some point, only for M to conveniently save the day at the last second. She convinces M she wants to be a hostage, and the story ends up with MC in a palanquin, on her way to...somewhere.

My tolerance for unrealistic bullshit in SLBP stories is pretty high, but this story was just too damn much, lmao. Masamune clearly has the position of power here as the third party...can’t he just declare that he’ll ally himself to the first clan to rescind their hostage demand?! Hideyoshi and Masamune seemed to get along ok in M’s Act 2...I’m sure the guy could be made to see reason. I did like the beginning scene where Masamune strokes MC’s hair and lets her sleep in, but to be very honest I kind of thought the rest of the story was crap. ^_^

Personal enjoyment: 1/10

In Kojuro’s ES, he and MC decide to take care of a boy from the enemy Ashina clan who’s lost his memories (not sure why they couldn’t have just watched him from a distance, tbh). Except then the whole town becomes convinced that said boy is Kojuro’s “bastard” child from before MC, and gets super mad at him! I’m sure this is exactly how people in ancient Japan would’ve reacted to a powerful man’s extramarital child, lol. In the end, boy regains his memories, the Ashina clan learns about him and declares war with the Date clan over the “hostage” they imprisoned, and that’s that. 😂

I mean... I’m glad the story didn’t end with some bullshit reason to separate K from MC?! Besides that, I’m not really sure what the point of this whole ES was. The plot was pretty boring imho, and Kojuro was absent/distant/not romantic for a large part of it. I’m not sure why MC was so insistent that Kojuro be nice to an enemy child, either. Also I saw that trap coming from a mile away once Kojuro mentioned the Ashina were plotting something, and I can’t say I’m super excited to see how this story plays out.

Personal enjoyment: 2/10

Nobunaga spends most of his ES humiliating his new retainer Murashige. From forcing Murashige to eat mochi directly off his sword (not an innuendo!!) to insulting his young son’s drawing of him to giving a military leadership position to Hideyoshi when Murashige made the most strategic sense, one really starts to wonder how Oda “no people skills” Nobunaga was ever able to get that close to Divine Rule in the first place, lol. In any case, to nobody’s surprise Murashige ends up betraying Nobunaga at a crucial moment, and Nobunaga ends up divorcing MC (this again?! 😂) after a night of astounding sex.

Things I did like about this route: Nobunaga secretly being nice to the son when he thinks nobody’s watching. That sex scene. Nobunaga getting pissed with Murashige claiming his young wife is the most beautiful woman in world (of course, lmao). Things I didn’t love so much: Nobunaga’s total lack of communication regarding why he does the shit he does! I bet we’re going to find out during the sequel that Nobunaga knew all along that Murashige was suspicious. ^_^

Personal enjoyment: 6/10

After saving the road to a neighboring province from kidnappers and murderers, Yukimura truly proves himself to be the hero we all know he is in his ES! There isn’t too much plot beyond that, but this story is full of cute/hilarious moments instead, such as the poor idiot freaking out when he learns that MC’s gravely injured herself after several rounds of telephone, lmao (spoiler: she just cut herself, a little, while cooking). There’s also a bit of drama/angst when the neighboring province tries to poach Y for a few months to handle some problem I don’t remember and he’s reluctant to leave MC, but he eventually does leave, only to quash said problem... and have a cliff fall on him. !!

This story was definitely super light on the plot, lol. But no plot is better than a bad plot, imho! I did really like the little slice of life moments we got between MC and Yukimura, such as his adorable reaction to MC figuring out how to carve a turnip chrysanthemum ^_^ These two dorks are so in love and impressed with each other. I thought it was super sweet!! Best quote: “I cannot put anything or anyone else before you, even in my thoughts.”

Personal enjoyment: 7/10

Mitsuhide’s ES is a cute little treat. Here, the poor guy’s been obviously overworking himself, to the point of not having time to accept MC’s care/food (!). And in the meanwhile, people in town have been collapsing for mysterious reasons! After M himself also passes out, he realizes the townsfolk have been suffering from malnutrition after switching from farming to fishing. While MC teaches them how to cook veggies with the fish (lol), he saves the day by establishing a vegetable/fish trading route, and everyone lives happily ever after! ...Except not, because MC finds the guy coughing BLOOD. Uh oh.

I thought the plot was a little silly (do the townsfolk really need some uppity city girl teaching them how to cook vegetables?! lmao), but it was nonetheless a lovely, self-contained, and interesting read! The real star of this story was definitely Mitsuhide himself, who apart from being an overworked sweetheart for the whole ES, also busted out the single best line of dialogue in this event: “When I eat your food...that’s how I know I am home.” Awww 😍 I’m really hoping we learn his illness isn’t terminal in the sequel!

Personal enjoyment: 8/10

Saizo’s story is one of the more adventure-filled ones! Here, the ninja’s been sent alongside Yukimura on a diplomatic mission to one of their more remote territories/villages. Unfortunately, the son of the village elder holds a grudge against Saizo due to murder (understandable). Said son also kidnaps MC and tries to rape her (less understandable!), but of course, Saizo saves the day. MC talks S down from killing the guy, but the ungrateful bastard claims Saizo’s attacked him and has him arrested...! Yikes.

This story was delightfully dramatic, and I really enjoyed it. Not to mention, Saizo was sweeter than I’ve ever seen him before! From buying MC a cord she was eyeing to resting in her lap to talking in the onsen with her to acknowledging that MC’s made him less murderous, this guy showed that he definitely is capable of doing the romance thing when he wants to. Not to mention, his saving MC scene was super badass (The ravens have come...and so has he)!! I’m quite curious to see what’ll happen in the sequel!

Personal enjoyment: 9/10

I may not have loved every story in this latest event (cough Date clan), but every CG looks so good, like wow! My favorite is definitely Nobunaga’s ;)

Anyway, what did you think of this event?? ^_^

[angelxblossoms]

“You’re her future husband?” He repeated, scoffing a bit.

The gruff male found that extremely humorous that a scrawny, prissy rich boy is Setsuka’s fiancé. It was all joke. He believes that a man like him won’t ever successfully please a woman; however, it didn’t change the fact he did piss Wuchen off. It made him feel like Ayato was looking down on him, making him grit his teeth a bit.

“I wanted to show her what she was missing out on. With how incredibly sexy she looks, it’s hard not to want to take her to bed. Something you can’t possibly do.” He threw back.

Setsuka felt revolted right now. She didn’t need anybody’s opinion on how she dressed, not from him, Kojuro, and definitely not from any man. Ayato is the only one out of her family that allows her to be comfortable with what she wants to wear. Tonight her appearance was a gift to her and Ayato from her grandmother, wanting her to embrace Louie’s culture, and she won’t have that ruined by a perverted pig-head.

“I am not seeking no man’s attention with how I dressed, Wuchen. I told you countless times I have zero interest in becoming your woman now and forever. You’re only here because of my family, and I suggest you tread carefully because I’ll have you removed from the tournament.” She threatened.

“Oh, how scary~ Like I care anything about the tournament. I only partake because you’re there, and now why don’t you ditch your loser fiancé and show me your ass underneath that garment of yours.” He smirked.

God, what a disgusting man. He is ballsy for saying that in front of Ayato, who even told him that he is Setsuka’s future husband.

angelxblossoms​:

As soon as Setsuka’s wrist was released, she stood next to Ayato, with her eyebrows still furrowed at Wuchen. She was so glad her lover immediately noticed her predicament, or otherwise, she would have caused a loud scene to get this pervert off of her.

“That’s not your business, rich boy!” He growled.

Yanking away from Ayato’s pull, the gruff man massaged his wrist a bit, cursing how painful that was. Leaning up, Setsuka whispered to Ayato about Wuchen groping her rear end earlier, along with the disgusting comments he said to her.

“Who the hell are you anyway?! Are you acting like some white knight?” He asked with a bit of smugness in his tone.

He refrained from physically reacting to what Setsuka told him, but he did file it away in case he needed it in this or a future interaction he might have with this man.  For now, he turned from her to the man.

“I suppose introductions do make sense between two individuals who don’t know each other.” Though he certainly seemed to know Setsuka.  “Though again, that’s an incredibly rude way of asking.” And yes he was just stringing this man along to make fun of him.

“Kamisato Ayato.  As for who, exactly, I am, I have a few titles, but I would venture the most relevant one here is her future husband.  Or were you trying to drag her off somewhere just for a friendly chat?”

[cavern-of-bells]

This was a fun one! Tagging @duerme07 because I didn’t answer this as a proper ask because I’m on mobile and the app sucks. Thank you for the request! 😀

Nobunaga, the most popular guy in school, famous for his extravagant house parties, gets disqualified for the title of Homecoming King, despite having the majority vote. Why was he disqualified? Both he and Shingen were kicked out after a dance-off which had escalated to a display of rather obscene dancing with their respective partners. Nobu is pissed that he’s lost his shot at the crown, but Shingen couldn’t care less. He leaves the school with several admirers dangling from his arms.

Mitsuhide was another shoo-in for the title of King, but as class president and part of the homecoming planning committee, he was ineligible. He, his MC, and Kenshin did a bang-up job prepping for the dance, though it did take a lot of convincing go get Kenshin (who was in charge of decorations) to narrow it down to a single theme. All of them are quite proud of how the dance turned out, but ended up leaving early after the dance-off fiasco. Mitsuhide and his MC to calm down Nobunaga, while Kenshin was invited out to join Shingen and his admirers.

The title of prom king ends up going to the school’s star athlete and resident babe, Yukimura. After the crowning ceremony, he nearly passes out when he realizes he’s expected to slow dance with the Homecoming queen in front of everyone. “I’m supposed to k-keep my hand on her w-waist?! For the whole song??” All the girls think it’s adorable how red-faced he is, but the boys give him shit for it the rest of the year.

Saizo only came to this thing because he couldn’t take the look of resigned acceptance on his MC’s face. He ends up asking her to the dance she was certain she wouldn’t be going to–much to her delight. He doesn’t really dance, though, and spends most of his time leaning against the wall by the snack table as he watches her dance with her friends. He decides time is up once a boy asks her for a dance. He claims he’s bored, brushing off the other guy, and escorts his MC to a restricted area of the school (most likely the roof) where they proceed to fool around as the party goes on.

Nobuyuki is quite similar, though he, for all intents and purposes, is the perfect gentleman escorting his MC to the party. They dance quite a bit, but he begins to get jealous the more time the pair of them spend time catching up with friends. She notices by the look in his eye that it’s about time to call it quits. They leave the school together while the night is still young, and take advantage of their remaining time by driving to Makeout Point™ in his car.

Masamune spends the evening glued to his MC’s side– he’s not one for crowds and loud places. They have a nice time dancing with each other until MC has to excuse herself to the restroom, leaving him alone. He waits patiently for her return, but when she arrives she finds him scowling, flustered, and confused by the gaggle of girls attempting to flirt with him. When he spots MC relief floods his face and he pushes his way through the other girls. She and Masa decide to call it a night after one last dance–they spend the rest of their date cuddling in the empty courtyard.

Shigezane is kicked out promptly after a failed attempt to spike the punch. He makes a last minute plea to Masamune as he’s being escorted from the building that he wasn’t actually going to do it, but Masa pretends not to hear him.

Hideyoshi gets away with it. It’s going to be fun to see where it leads.

Kojuro is the epitome of the perfect date. He’s right on time to pick his MC up, ready with a corsage and reservations to the best restaurant he could afford with his part-time wages. At the party they have lots of fun dancing and socializing with their friends. Whenever his date gets thirsty and Kojuro is right on it- bringing her a glass of punch whenever she desires. Unfortunately, it is only after MC passes out drooling on his shoulder during one of the slow dances that he realizes the punch has been spiked. He takes her home immediately trying to think of the best way to apologize to MC’s mom and explain the state of her daughter, praying she won’t label him a pervert and forbid her from seeing him again. Luckily for him, MC’s mom is super chill. She even jokes that MC would be very disappointed to wake up and realize that she slept through the chance for him to try anything.

Mitsunari spends the evening tailing and cockblocking Hideyoshi, until Hide manages to shake him off by sparking an intense debate between Mitsunari and a very unfortunate faculty member. Hideyoshi proceeds to flirt and dance with many a lady after this. Mitsunari argues with the Vice principal about the inefficiency of study hall during detention being a deterrent for delinquent behavior long after everyone else has gone home.

Toshiie and his MC go together as friends. He spends the evening sulking at the punch table as he’s forced to watch MC dance with boy after boy. Not realizing the punch has been spiked, he gets kicked out after trying to pick a fight with a boy he thought was getting a little too handsy (he wasn’t).

Ieyasu can’t believe he actually decided to appear at this circus act. He didn’t actually ask his MC to the dance, but he knew she was going to be there, so he justified his attendance by telling himself he just wanted to watch her make a fool of herself. However, all he’s ended up with was the sight of her happily, carelessly dancing with whatever louse-minded oaf that happened to ask. Disgusting. The whole cloying spectacle became too much to bear when one of his own friends (or the closest thing to a friend) offered MC his own hand. He knew he had to put an end to it immediately. He storms up to MC and yanks her away from poor Toramatsu and into his arms for the now- playing slow song. This is as far as he’s thought, however– when MC questions him as to what’s going on, he makes an excuse about trying to shake off some annoying girl that has been hassling him all night. But MC knows by the blush on his cheeks and she sullen glare she’s felt on her back all night that he’s lying.

Salty asks 3, 7, 8. 14, 19, and 22 ^^

3. Have you ever unfollowed someone over a fandom opinion?Yes. It mostly depends on what’s being said but I usually unfollow if there’s discourse or if the person is just putting out stuff I don’t like. I don’t want that on my dash lol.

7. Is there anything you used to like but can’t stand now?*Uh well I used to like the first group of lords event stories and while I still do Kojuro’s (of course lol) and maybe Masamune’s, I don’t really like doing them unless they have pretty outfits/makeup lmao. Idk Voltage just tends to overdue the first group and I just want more of the second group.

8. Have you received anon hate? What about?*LMAO OH HAVE I. It was about my nipple posts 😂 what a dumb thing to get pissed over.

14. Unpopular opinion about your fandom?Some of y'all need to chill and just enjoy the game lol. Like I get that there’s stuff the you don’t like or whatever but if I see you just hating on the game all the time and more than you actually talk about liking it, then just stop playing and your problems will be gone? It’s not hard lmao.

19. What is the thing you hate most about your fandom? The way y'all shit on characters but don’t even play their routes? I get if some of y'all have reasons to why you don’t like a certain character, which is completely fine, but others who shit on characters just to shit on them piss me off. Like if you played the route and it made you mad then rant all you want lmao but if you haven’t then? Idk either stop ranting about a character you haven’t experienced for yourself or play the route and see if your opinion changes or not. Idk but that’s just my opinion.

22. Popular character you hate. LMAO WELL. *casually side eyes the lowest character on my list* (coughcoughsaizocoughcough)

[shigetsugu]

Can I request how the SLBP lords would react when they find out that MC have some psycho ex boyfriend that keeps stalking her? How would they get rid of him? (sorry for bad english) Thanks.

Hi Anon, thanks for your ask! Been so long since I have received something like this and I’m sorry for the delay! Hope it’ll be to your liking! *sweats*

Nobunaga: He’d would be pissed off more than angry. Nobody touches his woman and more, no ex-boyfriend should meddle in his affair. Since Mitsuhide would probably tell him that he would take of this problem for his sake, he would still deny it and sneak off into town to find the man himself. Not revealing truely who he is, he’d make sure to threaten him enough if he doesn’t want to have his head cut off.

Mitsuhide: He’d be thinking about the matter carefully, telling her that he would take care of him as soon as possible so he doesn’t need to worry anymore. He would try to confront the man in question, talking about his doing peacefully. Mitsuhide’s words can be enough to convince someone not to interfere in his relationship with MC, thus he would explain that he is serious about her and it’s time to move on for him.

Yukimura: He’s pretty sanguine for everything so, learning about this would make his blood boil in an instant. He’d take the man up-front and challenge him to a duel, telling him he’d give up on MC if he beats him. Of course, Yukimura knows that the man has no chance of winning so when he beats him quickly, he’d told him to never put a foot around here again as long he is living there.

Saizo: He’d do everything to assemble informations about that guy before confronting him. After finding enough material to balckmail him, Saizo would give him his best cold smile while telling him everything he found out and that he better not come around MC or her family’s restaurant ever again or else, he’d make sure to make him disappear completely.

Masamune: He would actually ask Kojuro to find out who that man is before taking action. After his report, Kojuro would ask Masamune if he can take care of it for him since it’s better if he doesn’t go too much into town. Warry of his reputation through some of his folks, he’d thinking that it’d be actually in his advantage to see the man himself to make sure he understands not to lay an eye on MC ever again. You know, or else he’d “curse” him by “eating” him. This worked.

Kojuro: Inside, he’d actually be burning with rage but would quickly think of the problem calmly. He’d make sure to come into town with MC whenever she’s out shopping and, when confronted to the man himself, Kojuro would make him understand that she’s taken and that he would take the matter at hands if he keeps on stalking her.

Hideyoshi: It would seem like he is taking the revelation lightly in front of her but he'd be already thinking how to get ride of him. He knows how to be sneaky and manipulate people to think the same as his. He’d make sure to negotiate with her ex-boyfriend until the dead is done. If he breaks it, Hideyoshi would personally make sure that some of his connections would take care of his case.

Toshiie: He would be so infuriated to learn about that guy that he would actually run into town to talk to him right after he found out that someone was stalking the love of his life. If Toshiie finds him, he would probably beat him to a pulp before telling him to never come back near MC if he wants to live another day.

Ieyasu: He would probably actually making fun of MC after she told him about being stalked, saying that nobody would be smitten enough to be following her around. Being actually worried about that tale, he would end up asking Hanzo to check out for him if it’s true. Ieyasu, after getting confirmation about that matter, would ask Hanzo to take care of that guy, making sure he wouldn’t cause anymore problem to MC. Defintely.

Mitsunari: He wouldn’t admit directly how actually angry it makes him, so he’d take of the matter without MC knowing. Mitsunari would send him a letter first, threatening him to deathif he keeps staking her. If he refuses, he’d be sure to take into action by threatening him, this time, face to face. He’d never allow anyone to do anything to her, even less a creepy psycho.

Kenshin: You’d think he’d take it easy but he is actually extremely protective. Kanetsugu would want to take care of it but Kenshin would insit upon doing it. He knows how to be scary and everyone knows that he is known as the God of War for a reason. Really, it’d be easy to convince anyone not to even try to play with him.

Shingen: He’d probably laugh about it, thinking that some man, who know who MC’s lover is, is almost unthinkable. Of course, he wouldn’t let him beat him, he would show what kind of man he is and knows that he would give up pretty quickly. He was right.

Big Brother

Big Brother

A/n: I had drawn something for Shigezane’s oldest a bit ago,  and looking back on it now drew some inspiration. So I quickly wrote this out.

Summary: In which Takashi is left in charge.

Rating: Pg

Big Brother

Summary: In which Takashi is left in charge.

Rating: Pg

Being the eldest of five kids was never easy. Sure he had a younger brother who was only a year younger than himself, but if Takashi was honest with himself, he wouldn’t trust Hitoshi with a sack of potatoes for a day, much less any of the rowdy younger siblings they shared. Takashi, as a result, was usually the most responsible. Often taking on whatever household chores that he could when he had the time, or the motivation, so that his mother could have a small break here and there. It happened most often when his father, Shigezane, was away helping with Lord Masaume with whatever it was that required Shigezane’s help. It was during those times that Takashi knew his mother would rely on him the most, so he tried to take on tasks that would make it easier on his mother.

........

.......

...

“You’re such a good boy, Takashi. Are you sure you want to do this? It’s quiet a load this time.” His mother said one day when Shigezane was off on war with Lord Masaume and Lord Kojuro.

It had been three weeks since they departed, and Takashi was doing extra work to make sure his mother could relax whenever she could. Especially since this time, she seemed more worried than other times. He wanted to ease what he could off of his mother to make the passage of time a bit easier.

“I don’t mind, Mother. It’s really not that much, and besides, we need some food around here if we’re gonna feed those other animals in there. Go ahead, take your time shopping. I can hold down the fort here.” He grinned. His mother giggled for just a second, but then cleared her throat as she attempted to give him a stern look.

“That’s no way to refer to your siblings.” She said in as stern a voice as she could manage. Takashi shrugged as he looked back at the house, and then at his mother with one eyebrow raised.

“Well, what would you call them?” He questioned in almost annoyance, although there was a hint of adoration behind it.

“Energized. Now, I want you all to get along, and I want the house standing when I get back. Also, all five of you must  be accounted for, so make sure nobody gets killed while I’m gone.” She was speaking in a full firm, stern, parental tone. Takashi rolled his eyes, nodding as he grinned.

“Go, Mother, I got this.” He urged his mother to leave. She looked back with one last smile, looking at the castle for just a second, before turning back around, walking with a slight fast paced movement.

........

......

......

“Alright! Mother left me in charge while she’s gone. DO you guys know what that means?” Takashi questioned.

“We can’t have a party?” Hitoshi replied. Takashi looked at him, an annoyed grin on his face.

“What makes you think any of the retainers here would let us party even if we wanted to?” He questioned through his teeth.

“Because we kinda outrank them… I mean, we do… Don't we?” Mika, the youngest at just four years old, questioned, holding up a doll as she looked around with a slight confused tilt to her head.

“See? Mika gets it, and she’s only four years old.” Hitoshi said, sticking out his tongue at his brother, who simply looked at him with a deadpan expression.

“Very mature, Hitoshi, very mature.”

“Ha! I know right?” Hitoshi grinned at him, not even caring that is brother was visibly annoyed.

“I swear, you must……” Takashi pinched the bridge of his nose, and then sighed as she shook his head.”Nope. Not gonna do it. Not this time. I refused to get sucked into your vertex of immaturity.” He whispered under his breath.

“Talking to yourself isn’t a good sign, Big Brother. Don’t crazy people do that?” Twelve year old Kouki asked, glancing up at his brother, who just sighed, and shook his head.

“Nevermind. Listen, we need to clean this mess up. It’s really a mess in here.” Takashi said, looking around the clearly messy room.

“Right. Like that’s gonna happen.” Shiori, the recently turned nine year old girl, replied in a sarcastic tone, looking at her brother with an eyebrow raised.

“It’ll get done faster if we just work together.” Takashi tried to reason.

“Last time that happened, Papa had to break up a fight between you and Hitoshi.” Kouki replied simply. Takashi was silent for a moment in embarrassment as he remembered the incident. If he remembered right, it was over a piece of clothing…. But that didn’t matter at this moment! He needed to get this place cleaned up before his mother came home!

“Alright. If nobody wants to help, then at least go be annoying somewhere else so I can get this place cleaned. I promised Mother.”

....

.....

.....

“For all the ‘’energy” they have, you figured one of them could have helped.” He whispered to himself, scrubbing at some clothes in a wash bin.

“Big Brother?” Takashi looked at Mika, who was looking at him with a shy expression her light brown eyes. Takashi softened, and smiled.

“What’s up?” He questioned, going back to scrubbing the clothes.

“Can I help?” She questioned, getting a bit braver as she grinned, and stepped forward. Takashi smiled, nodding.

“Sure.” He moved slightly so that there was just enough room for her slim body to get in between him and the wash bin.”Why don’t you help me scrub these clothes clean?” He questioned, beckoning her over. Mika grinned, nodding as she ran to her brother, and sat on his lap. She took a small piece of clothing, one of her own yutaka’s, and dunked it in the water. Takashi sat back, and watched her work with a determined expression.

“Like this?” She questioned, holding up the piece of clothing after a few moments. Takashi nodded, moving her aside slightly so that he could hang it up.

“Perfect.” He said simply, ruffling her hair. Mika grinned, watching as her brother hung up the clothing, and then, with renewed energy, grabbed another piece of clothing, and began to vigorously scrub at it. Takashi just looked at her with another small smile.

.......

....

.....

“You’ve got to be kidding me?! I just cleaned this room?!” Takashi yelled out. He could feel a vein pop out on his forehead, like it usually did when he was irritated.

“Uh-oh. Big Brother’s mad.” Kouki whispered, leaning over to Shori, who nodded. Takashi felt even more annoyed. There was toys and clothes littering the room. He had literally just cleaned this room ten minutes ago as well!

How is it they always manage to make a huge mess out of thing within ten second of entering a room?! I just got done cleaning this room too! It must be a talent of theirs. A very hugely annoying talent. Or they just enjoy torturing me. Or both.

“Hey! Clean this mess up! Mother’s gonna be home soon!” He reprimanded his siblings, but was already going around, and picking up various items. Kouki and Shori were simply watching him with blank expression. That was until Kouki leaned over with a grin to his sister.

“Hehe… Ooops! I think Big Bro’s mad!” He loudly whispered, making Shiori laugh.

“I heard that!” He said, looking at the two with a slight glare, both of who laughed.”If you two aren’t gonna help, then get out!” He said simply, shooing them out. Shiori was still leaning into Kouki as she spoke.

“Better do it before he gets pissed.”

“Too late.” Kouki replied, both giggling as they ran out of the room.

“Ugh. Those two are the worst ever.” He whispered in annoyance.

“I feel sorry for your future wife and kids.” Hitoshi said teasingly, leaning against the door. Takashi looked at him with an eyebrow raised.

“What do you want?” He questioned.

“Let me help.” He said simply, taking the pile of clothes from his brother, and sat on the ground as he began to fold, and put them away. Takashi smiled, nodding as they worked together to clean the room up.

.......

....

.....

“Let’s see. Looks like all my kids are here. The house is still standing. Thanks, Takashi.” His mother smiled at him, patting him on the shoulder. Takashi smiled, rubbing the back of his neck.

“Well, I had the help of my siblings.” He said simply. His mother looked at him in surprise, and then smiled gently.

“I see. That's good.” She said, smiling gently at all her children.”Now, help me put these away before I start cooking.” She said, huffing as she handed a bag to each of her kids.

Mitsuhide x Amalia. Strawberries and silk

Can you imagine how he would nurse me if i am down or if i am hung over?i muse to myself. My boyfriend (he prefers s/o, he would, i roll my eyes) Mitsuhide is the perfect man. You would need a microscope trained at him to nit pick faults in him. It is at once endearing and infuriating when i look at the mess that I am. So there i was with my friend Ehlana in a cafe / bar owned by our mutual friend Kenshin ,Ken ken as we call him. We were being served by his pretty boy brigade. Yoshichi , Kanetsugus' brother seemed to think i was his personal stuffed bunny and kept squishing me much to Mitsuhides' discomfort. Ken ken as usual was dressed in lavender with a purple boa complete with silver nails, Ehlana was dusting his eyes with silver eyeshadow. The subject was Ehlanas' open relationship with both Kojuro and Shingen. Mitsuhide was urging her to choose Kojuro. I was becoming inebriated by the moment. Ken ken was combing and braiding my hair. That always put me to sleep. A few more drinks and i was challenging Yukimura and Toshiie at the karaoke completely drowning out the one man comedy show put up by poor Hideyoshi. We sang My heart will go on , complete with Jack and Rose poses. I could feel Mitsuhide getting pissed off judging by his poker face but i was having a lot of fun. Besides i wanted to see what kind of trouble i would get in if i push his buttons. The devil was inside me tonight. I heard Ehlana and Leyasu discuss some drug trials on rabbits for a new drug. A collaboration between Kai corp and Oda group. Both had cutting edge pharmacology and drug development techniques. I began to argue with my friends on the injustice of hurting bunnies. Saizo cut out a crown and put the words BUNNY PROTECTION SQUAD LEADER and put it on my head. Yukimura and Toshiie wanted one too. Evidently Mitsubide had had enough. I poured my bunny woes to masamune who listened quietly. (I later discovered ge was dosing and it was on film recorded by Ehlana. Who needs enemies when i have friends like her)My last coherent memory is that of being lifted up and carried on some ones' shoulders cave man style while i shouted " THE BUNNIES MUST BE PROTECTED " . The smell of fresh laundry and fabric softener invaded my nose. Oooh i love this .i squished even more in the fluffy comforter than jolted upright this was not my fabric softener! !! I was in Mitsuhides' room. Tastefully decorated in cool pastels it was at once calming and welcoming. I collapsed back into the bedding trying to recall the events of the previous night. Suddenly i pick up the comforter to look at my clothes, i was dressed in Mitsuhides' sweat shirt, my undergarments were still on. Thank God i wore the matching cute set kenshin chose for me . ( yes we take kenshin lingerie shopping he has excellent taste. He also happens to design it ) i dozed off wandering when mitsu will come back from his morning run. (Yes he is terribly healthy. He and Ehlana go for a morning run and do Tai Chi too ugggh) The next time i wake up it is to the delicious aroma of bacon and pancakes. My mouth watering i get up quickly brush my teeth and make my way to the kitchen. I stand in the door way admiring his back side. Listen every side of him is perfect to me. He is listening to Bach and making accompanying gestures while scooping scrambled eggs and hash browns in a plate, the sight is as beautiful as a masterfully crafted symphony.Deftly he flips banana pancakes which he then plates. He stands shirtless in the kitchen in his pajamas. Freshly shaved. Droplets of water cling to his perfectly formed musculature and flow down in rivults. His hair stands up , spikily making him look younger. Bathed in the morning sun he is a vision to behold. A god among men. His biceps flex rhythmically as he flips the pancakes. He throws some strawberries and a shot of alcohol in the pan. It caught fire like my insides. What was this magic? This trickery? This foolishness? I wanted those skilful hands to tease me not to chop fruit and set it on fire. I laughed at my thoughts, mentally wiped the drool from my lips . He became aware of my presence and smiled at me. God that smile was unfair. It completely undid me. "Good morning " he said pleasantly gesturing me to join him on the kitchen island. I made my way to him in a daze . Led on by the smell of mouthwatering food and even more mouth watering sight of Mitsuhide cooking half naked. I sighed as he plated and placed the food in front of me. " what is it my love? Is something not to your liking? " he frowned. His beautiful forehead wrinkling. " Not at all its perfect" i quickly rush to assure him . I couldn't tell him about the mental image i had of him lying on the kitchen table while i ate from his chest . Licking the strawberry compot from his perfectly chisled chest.....omg i need a shower. I shake my head and realise i am being spoken to. Mitsuhide was asking how i felt. "Perfect . Fine. I am perfect." i replied over enthusiastically. He took a spoon full of caramelized strawberries and fed me. "Are you spoiling me?" " Let me. I like it". I cut my pancake and dipped it in the whipped cream and held it to his mouth. My gaze was transfixed by his tongue that darted out to lick the cream before swallowing the mouthful never breaking eye contact with me. I lean in to lick at the small speck of cream left at the corner of his mouth and he groans and pulls me in his lap. We kiss passionately. I am keenly aware of sitting on his hardness. "Eat now. Finish this." he says in a voice that brooks no defiance.we finish breakfast in silence with me seated on his lap and his arm around my waist. I am feeling awkward when suddenly he looks up at me and smiles. "Did u like it? " "Yes very much. Thank you. It was lovely" .He strokes my lips. "Good". After a brief pause he says ," So you like karaoke." I am surprised by this sudden change in topic. "Ummm yeees". "Let me rephrase do you like karaoke with yukimura and toshiie?". "Ummm?" i squirm in his laps. He restrains me. I look in his eyes. He is serious and a bit hurt too." I just got carried away last night. It was nothing". " They got handsy with you". "Well you know I have been friends with Yukimura and tioshiee since i was a kid. They don't even consider me a girl." Hmmm." He gets up. I am left standing at a loss." Mitsuhide please i would do anything to prove i ..." "Anything ? To please me?" " Yes anything. Within reason. You can't hurt me or take away my friends or control me. But if you are hurt and insecure i will make it up to you". I say srtubbornly . "I see ". He says evenly. He goes to his room and returns with a pair of velvet lined wrist cuffs and drops them on the table in front me wordlesssly . " Use your tie instead its more personal" i manage to say , my mouth dry. "I won't be gentle". "I don't want you to be. " " I want you to stop me if u become uncomfortable". "Bring it on." I smile confidently . "You do realise you are in trouble my love " he quirks an eyebrow at me quzically, trying to shake my confidence was he? Call my bluff? ." The best kind i hope " Iwink at him . He throws his head back and laughs his tight control suddenly shattered . Quickly he picks me up and takes me to the bedroom proceeding to demonstrate how much trouble i am in. ( for @small-and-nerdy enjoy . I just tapped it out as it came. 😚 i know it's poorly written and lacking in depth and prose but it's the best i could come with at a short notice. Sorry bae.)

The SLBP Lords: Would I Date Them IRL?

Nobunaga: this guy I have a love hate relationship with. Sometimes he is really great and hilarious, other times he can be a real obnoxious dick. Would I date him? Maybe but if we did I highly doubt it would last long as our attitudes would clash. 

Mitsuhide: Oh mitsuhide, he stresses about work way too much. He is a poetic tea drinking angel though (and I totally always read his voice with a beautiful British accent). Would I date him? I doubt it, as I have a feeling he wouldn’t particularly like me since I am far more free spirited, but anything is possible I suppose. 

Inuchiiyo: When I first started playing SLBP he was my favorite lol. He’s always so protective of MC which is a way I’ve always wanted to be treated, plus just like me he’s a stubborn ass lol. Would I date him? Yes totally! Assuming he can handle my smart ass self lol 

Hideyoshi: I have very conflicted thoughts about this character. I absolutely loved him in his main story route but his story events make me pause because he reminds me a lot of my ex in them (which makes me a tad uncomfortable). Would I date him? No, but if I hadn’t dated my ex I would. 

Mitsunari: I like Mitsunari; he is definitely one of my favorites. He has next to no manners sometimes but I respect the fact that he says what’s on his mind. So would I date him? Yep, Mitsunari needs more love. 

Ieyasu: Another love hate relationship. I really feel bad for this guy, he’s been through so much shit that he shouldn’t have had to and deep down he isn’t a bad guy. On the other hand, he also really knows just how to piss me off at times. So ultimately would I date him?  I don’t know tbh I could see it happening... I could also see us trying to kill each other however...

Kenshin: He’s such a sweetheart and I love his shenanigans but honestly he has slowly started reminding myself of my little brother as an adult which as you can imagine is very off putting. Would I date him? Nope he’s bro zoned. 

Shingen: I love this character! His route had me laughing and crying so much. His personality really fits mine as we both can just talk about sex without it being weird. He does have a bit of a temper on him which I’m not super fond of but I’ve dealt with way worse. So would I date him? Hells yeah! He’s my second favorite character! 

Yukimura: Such a sweet cinnamon roll! He’s loyal, he’s honorable, he’s kind, he’s almost the entire package. He’s not the sharpest tool in the shed but he more than makes up for it in every other way! Would I date him?  YES! He’s so sweet, I would be lucky to find a guy like him irl!

Saizo: Saizo, is an interesting character, who I absolutely adore. I love how he calls MC ‘Little Lady’ I think it’s cute. I don’t like how often he lies though; I mean seriously he could be a little more honest. Would I date him??? My first reaction is oh my gosh yes! But I also realize that lying is one of my pet peeves, so I’m not sure how long the relationship would last...

...

Masamune: Oh Masamune, you were the reason I started playing SLBP because I liked your character in a different game and was googling you lol. He’s a very interesting character. He has a very deep personality with lots of facets. Would I Date him though (See what I did there)? It’s definitely possible, but probably a bad idea considering I’m in love with his cousin... Things would likely get awkward at family gatherings...

Kojuro: Daddy! He is such a wonderful character to read, I always read his story events first when given the option and his main route was one of my favorites. He’s one of the few lords that doesn’t hurtfully ditch MC at some point which I really really like. Would I date him? For sure!

Shigezane: This is my husband. At first I wasn’t sure what to think about him but after reading more into/completing both Masamune and Kojuro’s routes I started to really enjoy this character. Then after reading a certain story event of Kojuro’s I realized my heart would never be the same again. He has completely consumed me and I have a mighty need for his main story route to come out in English. So would I date him? Do you even have to ask? Of course I would, and then I would marry him and have lots of little Shige babies.

[voltageinclicious]

How about :

Ieyasu :

- SLBP!Ieyasu still with his 'smile' look suspicious at Ikesen!Ieyasu. And Ikesen!Ieyasu is just like "What's your problem dude?"

- Surprisingly, Ikesen!Ieyasu didn't bother it when Tadatsugu praise him with his attitude (compared with SLBP!Ieyasu). And SLBP!Ieyasu being Tsundere as usual, secretly jealous with them and hide it with pulling Tadatsugu's hair.

- Wasabi like both of them. But SLBP!Ieyasu (Trying) to look so pissed off with this animal. But when he's alone with Wasabi, he just stroke his head and trying to feed him (or her?).

(What? I think I see the post about Ieyasu being so friendly with a kitten who just follow him wherever he go xD)

- REALLY pissed of when Ikesen!Mitsunari praised and following him like a puppy.

Kenshin :

- OMG, Kanetsugu (HELL, ALL OF THEM) was freaking out when they met Ikesen!Kenshin. I mean, they are the same person (literally) but is waaay to different at attitude. When SLBP!Kenshin hate the war and Ikesen!Kenshin do anything to make a war.

- Feeling uncomfortable for the first time they met (for SLBP!Kenshin) but then being so friendly when SLBP!Kenshin look at the bunny who always follow Ikesen!Kenshin around.

Sasuke (Why? XD)

- Being so awkward when Ikesen!Sasuke know that SLBP!Sasuke is just a kid

- But, he become a brother figure for a short time. I mean, he can be so friendly with MC at the short time and act like MC is his little sister right?

(Want to compared it with "Sasuke" chapter moon but I never played it because I can't read japanese so, that's it.)

Kojuro :

- Why I didn't have a spirit at Ikesen?

Mitsunari :

- SLBP!Mitsunari always trying to stop Ikesen!Mitsunari when he always want to praise Ieyasu.

- SLBP!Mitsunari annoyed with Ikesen!Mitsunari's smile and attitude

- "Stop being so nice! That's disgusting!" -SLBP!Mitsunari

- "You look pretty when you become Saki. *angelic smile* -Ikesen!Mitsunari

Scenario. Ikemen Lords meet SLBP Lords.

I wanted to wait until I finished at least the first three routes before responding to this but it ended up taking really long lol sorry

Nobunaga vs Nobunaga

they are both very suspicious of each other’s Mitsuhide (SLBP!Mitsuhide is alarmingly sincere, Ikesen!Mitsuhide is just alarming in general)

SLBP!Nobunaga gets worked up over Ikesen!Nobunaga’s chill-yet-superior attitude

they start arm wrestling, much to SLBP!Mitsuhide’s dismay and Ikesen!Mitsuhide’s glee

they end up bonding over konpeito (ikesen!Hideyoshi screams in the distance)

Masamune vs Masamune

SLBP!Masamune is Uncomfortable, somebody save him, he has never met anybody this intimidatingly friendly in his life

Ikesen!Masamune basically carries the whole conversation, SLBP!Masamune just kind of nods and makes the appropriate noises

Ikesen!Masamune thinks SLBP!Masamune just needs time to warm up

SLBP!Masamune fervently wishes that Shigezane would show up out of the blue like he often does 

Yukimura vs Yukimura

before you know it, these bros are sparring in the courtyard

just let them do their manly bonding rituals and they’re good

Ikesen!Yukimura finds SLBP!Yukimura’s extreme friendliness kind of weird but hell, he lives in the same castle as far weirder people, this is nothing

Ikesen!Sasuke nearly has a heart attack when SLBP!Yukimura introduces Saizo because wait, Kirigakure Saizo actually exists!?

[midorikaze]

hello there!! for the character thing, can you please do one for ieyasu? thank you!! :)

sure!! thanks for sending in an ask! c: this is probably not going to be the type of answer you were looking for, since he’s my least favourite, but.. well, anyway let’s go! (warning: if you like ieyasu a lot you probably won’t want to read this)

Why I like them

oh dear... to be frank, i don’t. i.. really don’t. LOL. but let me think.. i guess i can admire how fearless he seems to be in most situations? i don’t appreciate how relentlessly and ruthlessly he attacks everyone he ever meets with his words, but it takes guts to do that and not care about or fear retaliation. he’s also very shrewd, which lends itself to intelligence.

Why I don’t

everything about him pisses me off. WHOOPS. i just really can’t stand his type of character, no matter what backstory he’s been given to explain or justify his behaviour. he’s so different from my favourite in the game -- that being masamune -- and the type of character i like in general that it’s very hard for me to even think about giving him a chance. he attacks without reason, he strikes first so as not to be the one struck regardless of if there was any need to, and much of his dialogue turns my stomach. ugh. sorry, ieyasu fans!

Favorite episode (scene if movie)

...i liked it when the MC slapped him for insulting her father.

Favorite season/movie

i haven’t done his main route, and he only has the one event story, so... i guess when he left the hairpin of the MC’s on kojuro’s desk before leaving in that one event story of kojuro’s? it showed that he isn’t unpleasant ALL the time

Favorite line

in the one promo scene for his and mitsunari’s goddesses of war gacha when he said something very pointed about mitsunari “not knowing anything about makeup, hm?”

Favorite outfit

hm.. his formal robes, i guess?

OTP

ieyasu x a proper lesson in manners

Brotp

i’m glad that tadatsugu is willing to put up with ieyasu and cares about him. he’s a very grounded and mild man, which helps to balance ieyasu’s venom.

Head Canon

i’m going to be very honest, i try to think about ieyasu as little as possible, so i don’t really have any headcanons for him. maybe he’s secretly incredible at origami? that sounds good.

Unpopular opinion

i hate him and i have no desire to play his route in order to find out why he is the way that he is. i know a lot of people like him, and i’ve seen some scenes from his main route that could maybe change my mind a little, but he’s just dug a very deep hole for himself.

A wish

that future event stories of him will feature him holding his tongue when it comes to the MC. i’m tired of reading such harsh words directed toward “me”. 

An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen

eh, no opinion. let whatever happen, so long as that poor MC stays safe.

5 words to best describe them

shrewd, ruthless, manipulative, secretive, petty

My nickname for them

rat bastard. ...SORRY;;;

soooo... that sure was an ask meme. OTL i really am sorry to anyone who likes him a lot, he’s just not my cup of tea. i have personal reasons, and then very personal reasons, but at the end of the day if you like him then that’s great -- enjoy your tea! just don’t share with me, LOL

SenBasa and working at a theme park

Using the local theme park I work at for placements. Also, some will be aged up to sixteen for this Masamune would be front gate, with the tickets, checking them in. He's good enough to run two at the same time with accuracy. He jokes that he could do six if they were appropriately placed Yukimura is next door at guest services Ieyasu is a merchandise (retail) area lead, spends his time generally wandering his area and offering help Mitsunari is an area lead as well, but he's for rides Kojuro runs the candy shops, and the stuff made on site (so the fudge, candy apples, etc) you know is good. He's technically an area lead as well, but everyone knows his domain are the two candy shops Toshiie and Matsu are area leads for food service. Toshiie helps the new people learn the ropes, Matsu makes sure the places are clean and the workers fast and friendly Itsuki is in food service, as a waitress at one of the two sit-down places Ranmaru is a busboy Tsuruhime is in retail, she's new Kotaro is in rides, making sure belts are tight and safety harnesses/lap bars are down as far as they can go. He can do a full train by himself faster than Sasuke and Kasuga combined when the two are competing against each other Sasuke likes the same position as Kotaro Kasuga prefers giving the sphiel (the welcome to ride please your your shit in the ride and tough luck if anything is lost or stolen), otherwise she gets a lot of ogling and grabbing Kenshin is a rides supervisor Shingen is the games supervisor, but if given the chance he will hop on one of the guessing games. He's really good at them, and knows how the scales are balanced and can adjust Nobunaga is one of the managers, people think he's the owner Matsunaga is the owner, but he prefers to work one of the ring toss games as a lowly work peon to get a better idea of how things are going Ujimasa was the previous owner, and he hangs around to make sure his park is still going well. Matsunaga actually doesn't mind because, well, running a theme park isn't easy. Not that he'd ever admit it Oichi is in maintenance. Landscaping, sweeping the park, etc. Her Shadow Hands keep the place looking nice Kanbe, Yoshihiro, Tadakatsu, and Hideyoshi are part of security. Hell, Hideyoshi just has to show up and the guest who is pissed off cuz they assumed one thing when the reality was something else and said guest calms right down. Tadakatsu only really comes out in force when there's a a fight Nagamasa is in rides maintenance. Don't break his rides. Follow all proper procedures before opening the ride up for guests Keiji is in entertainment Magoichi has a camera for those photo passes you can get Hideyaki is in food service, under Kojuro Tenkai is as well, but he tends to be at the register more than anything else. Being around food, his hair is up in a net. Enjoy the visual Tadatsugu is in charge of entertainment, and likes to be on stage himself Sorin is retail. If he and Tsuruhime are eput together in one of the two person stores, better have a third person there solely to restock shelves Muneshige is at one of the airbrush tattoo carts Kenshin does charactures Motochika is at the go carts Motonari is in entertainment Those not mentioned are scattered around rides, food service, and retail
