I know the Land of Wa gate is positively glutted with transients, but still, where's my babygirl Kajiwara Kagetoki?

"Defected from the Taira" Kagetoki. "Got jealous over and offended by a dude nearly twenty years his junior" Kagetoki. "Slandered his lord's younger brother to death" Kagetoki. "His lord's mind-reader and mouthpiece and right hand man and most trusted adviser" Kagetoki. "Was slandered to death in turn after Yoritomo dies" Kagetoki.

I think Yoritomo's 5-star Research File vaguely alludes to him (? see below, emphasis mine), but neither Yoritomo nor Oniwaka mention him so he probably doesn't exist in Housamo lore. But what if he did! Imagine the antics and hilarity they could get up to! (And the angst too but I think the antics would be funnier.) LW where's my lore!!!

"Doesn't get along well with those who have a wild disposition or are prone to deep jealousy [...]"

#housamo #i really need him and yasuhira and noriyori and especially yoshinaka to be in housamo #shizuka i've lost hope for considering the rate they add women in. but the guys???#yasuhira and noriyori i can take it or leave it but kagetoki??? the guy literally pinned with yoshitsune's downfall???#again housamo doesn't take cues from gikeiki but we could have gotten a yoshitsune who used to get along with yoshinaka as a teenagers!!!#they'd ask after each other and were concerned with each other's safety!!! (i mean it's probably an embellishment but i dig it)#c'mon where's the trifecta of genji powerhouses. that eventually falls to infighting and betrayal #yoshinaka and yoritomo used to be on ok terms too. where's that delicious angst #c'mon it's not fair for oniwaka to be the only one with a personal grudge against him. or for yoshi to be the only one who looked up to him #other characters pick up the slack
