heres more teacher rin au!!!!

ill have some more deets under the cut about this hehe

Welcome back aoex fandom… I’ve decided for this AU to be called “Tightrope”!!!! Haha,, yeah it’s definitely not what i was saying earlier in that ask..

But yeah!!! I’ll be tagging any post related to this AU under a tag from now on! ;)

(The rest of this will contain spoilers from the manga, but then again this whole AU has been spoilers..)

Alrighty, this time we’re going over the reason for Rin’s appearance… Just as in the manga, Rin becomes “unstable” through Yukio breaking his sword, except in this tightrope au, their relationship was much more rockier than it was in the manga. So much stuff that wasn’t cleared up, lots of avoidance, not so much emotional stability.. There’s a whole background to how Yukio and Rin’s upbringing would’ve happened in this AU because of their little aged-up situation— some events are interpreted differently to fit and others are just completely new, you can assume— so obviously things happened differently between them without Yukio being the cram school’s teacher and Rin actually attending said school to begin with…

So, now that Yukio left Rin for Illuminati, leaving him completely lonely and without a proper purpose to live for in life… Rin’s demonic nature is left in a “tightrope-like” situation.

See how the title relates? And boy does it apply for many other things too.

Where is Mephisto to help with all this you ask? Oh he tried to offer Rin help by going into the past, but even after learning of his origins (I don't think it helped his self-esteem much tbh) Rin still finds himself unable to "restabilize". Like in the manga, it's not until Rin truly accepts both sides to himself is he able to truly stabilize. This AU is obviously more heavy on the twins terrible communication and relationship, so obviously this will be harder for Rin.

For as long as he can remember, Rin's always thought of himself as a nuisance to his family. And with Fujimoto's death, everything seems to be Rin's fault and he's not stupid enough as to not notice the pattern. Unfortunately, this really eats away at Rin, especially with how distant Yukio was with him. So until Rin can learn to accept the uglier parts of himself, he won't be stable. And Yukio is the most important part for him to realize that.

Now… time for the appearance explanation.

When Rin first "unstabilizes" his hair, ears, and eyes change (other smaller details like his canines as well as the newest addition of little nubs on his forehead). The more "unstable" he is, the more prominent these features become—his hair is wholly whitish-blue, his ears and canines are pointier, his eyes are sharper and more vibrant, and his little horns get bigger.

After becoming a not-so-substitute-teacher for the cram school, these features start to become smaller or fade away!!!! Depending on Rin’s emotional state—negative emotions lead to instability and positive emotions leads to stability— his appearance changes. The happier and healthier he is, the more his black roots take place (his original hair color) and the duller his other features become!

Now as for his flames.. I think some logic may be off canon for this but it’ll be fine! He can freely use his flames like he does during the final war-against-satan arc, however, his state of stability changes how precisely he can use them. The more unstable he is, the broader and rougher the attacks. When he’s more stable, his attacks can be more precise and controlled, such as shaping his flames into weapons and other uses.

Anywho, I’ll have to start on making these differences more noticeable for the Rin’s I’m drawing out, because I do like to draw him at different times of his life (if you take note of his hair,,, its one of his best indicators ahah). But yes. Now that I’ve written this concept out (after I drew these sketches whoops) I’ll be showing off a little more of the story once some heavy inspiration hits me. I hope you guys enjoy hearing about this AU as much as I love writing and drawing it!!!!! I’d love to hear feedback or any fic recommendations..! They are my fuel.

Thank you for listening to the end, much love <3

i don’t know why i am the way i am (there’s something in the static, i think i’ve been having revelations)

Rin has always been a believer. Both he and Yukio attended mass every Sunday at the monastery all their lives, grew up listening to Shiro and the other priests recite from the Bible—and this is the only book Rin knows almost by heart. The twins were baptized when they were younger, and despite his rebellious attitude, Rin has never wavered over that belief - whether that is because he was always surrounded by it or not - and it’s Yukio who’s gotten more skeptic about it as the years pass.

After Shiro dies, and Rin finds out he’s the son of Satan, Rin stops going to church. He doesn’t believe he’s welcomed at God’s house anymore, son of the original sinner that he is. He mourns the loss quietly, spending Sunday mornings in the quiet of his and Yukio’s abandoned dorm hoping he could be somewhere else.

(Alternatively, he could go to the chapel obsessively, turning his believes into a quest for absolution. Maybe if he behaves like a good Christian boy ought to do, if he follows the rules and proves Rin has not abandoned him, God will forgive him the sin of being born.)

Rin would want to have his confirmation—maybe he was in the middle of that process before Satan possessed Shiro. But now that holy instruments harm him, it’s like another sign that a demon isn’t welcomed, and that God has forsaken him. For that same reason, some of his favorite Bible verses harm him, and it’s through gritted teeth and clenched fists that he recites them in class and to himself, refusing to give them up because he’s turned tainted by his demon blood.

(When he first awakens, the night before the funeral, Rin takes a bottle full of holy water from the monastery’s reserves and tries dousing himself on them, thinking he might be able to cleanse himself of this curse with it. It burns, making his skin splotchy red and his eyes water from the pain. He’d always been able to touch it without issues before, but now it repels him. Rin falls to his knees in front of the altar, head bowed to the sculpture of Jesus crucified on the cross, and wonders for the first time if God has left him.)

(The burn fades within the hour, and Rin hates that most of all.)

Rin avoids mirrors the first few weeks after Shiro’s death, not wanting to see how he’s irrevocably changed. He hates the feeling of his longer canines when he runs his tongue over them, grimaces at the new, sharper shape of his ears, can’t barely take a look at his tail to stuff it under his shirt. He looks like he’s only just rolled out of bed, appearance shabby and unkept, but Rin prefers that to watching himself now that he’s no longer one of God’s creations.

He prays by his bedside every night - even more so now that he can’t go to mass, Rin has started praying obsessively since Shiro died - has his rosary around his neck even though it makes his skin itch and takes it everywhere he goes. He always blesses the table before eating, thanking God for the food he’s provided for them.

Every time he uses his flames, Rin feels like a sinner. This are the flames of Satan, the flames of the original sinner, God’s antithesis. Using them feels like forsaking God just like God has forsaken him, but Rin finds no joy in it. As the flames die out and Rin’s freaky demonic features recede, he bows his head and prays. “Forgive me Father, for I have sinned,” he says, trying and failing to feel better about himself.

His friends notice, after all secrets are out in the open and Rin doesn’t have to hide them anymore, and they look at him strangely for it, like his apology to God is out of the norm. Maybe they don’t think Rin would be religious, as the son of Satan. Maybe they just think it’s strange that he’s looking for absolution. They don’t comment on it until much later, when Bon tells him that he’s not a sinner just because he uses Satan’s flames. Bon is much smarter than Rin, so infinitely smarter, so Rin tries to believe him. He never stops praying though.

When he first realizes his feelings for Bon are less than platonic, his first instinct is to go to the confessionary and confess his sin. But the only priest he’s confessed to is Shiro, and Shiro is dead (Shiro is dead), and what priest would give absolution to a demon? So Rin doesn’t go, stewing on his guilt and thinking about it obsessively (“Forgive me father, for I have sinned. This is my first-tenth-hundredth-thousandth confession.” “Forgive me Father, for I want, and I do not know how to stop wanting.”). Is it because he’s the Son of Satan? Was he born a sinner, always meant to stray from God’s path like Satan did? How can he follow God’s will when he’s fallen in love with a boy?

Later, he realizes Shiro would have probably been fine with it, and if Shiro approves… maybe it’s not so wrong. Maybe Rin isn’t sinning when he looks at Bon feeling butterflies in his stomach, isn’t straying from God’s intended path when Bon’s laugh makes him happy. And if this is not a sin then maybe being a halfling isn’t either. Maybe it’s not God that has forsaken him, but the Catholic Church.

(The Vatican will never love him. They have casted him as the villain before he could even prove himself one of God’s believers, and they’ll never let him forget who his father is, and what he’s done. He’ll never be able to visit freely, to marvel at the beautiful structures and the holiness of it all. It hurts. But it hurts less than thinking he’s beyond saving, that God has given up on saving him.

The Vatican can suck it.)

Rin tries going to church again. It’s a daunting task, after days and weeks and months without stepping foot inside a chapel, but Rin finds himself sitting on the third row at the Sunday mass held near True Cross Academy, and feels the knot in his stomach loosen as he listens to the priest. It’s familiar. It’s liberating. Rin feels a little more like himself. Bon is waiting for him at the school gates when he’s done, looking immensely proud and Rin takes his hand in his and lets the feeling of contentment wash over him.

He still prays. He still blesses the table. He still recites verses of the Bible even if they hurt him, and he still refuses to go to a confessionary.

But he can stand to look at himself in the mirror now. He resumes his confirmation process, even knowing he may never be allowed the actual sacrament. He lets himself see a world where he can be the son of Satan and a good Christian, where he can love a boy who’s beautiful and good to him without disappointing God. It’s a different world than the one he lived in before, but Rin thinks it’s a world Shiro would be proud of.

It’s a start.

——————————

(This is my interpretation as I was raised Catholic and went to a Catholic school all my life. I’m nowhere near as devoted as I’m making Rin here lol, but I grew up around Catholic religion and know people who are very hardcore Catholics, so this, as well as my own religious education, is where I draw my knowledge from.)

(Also, I want to clarify that a lot of Rin’s thoughts are in no way healthy, and he will grow to let go of them in time. This is the result of a very traumatic situation that left him stranded with no sense of direction, and some of his actions stem from a need to overcompensate for being half demon. He’ll get better as he learns to deal with that reality.)

Update: my brain won’t stop eating at me so this has turned into a thing (tm). Let’s call it revelations au because I think I’m funny. You can find all my posts about it through that tag in my profile.

Older Yukio meeting Current Yukio…

Me thinking about current yukio (after satan's hopeful demise) meeting a 15-20 years older anime version of himself, demonic features and flames and all, from an alternate timeline.

It kinda freaked current yukio out when he first saw his older self, thinking that everything the Illuminati and Order told him was somehow still wrong, and he would inherit the flames.

Older yukio is calmer, genuinely so, and has fantastic control and acceptance of his own flames. He quickly realizes the younger self before him will not befall the same fate as he did (times and dates don't match up), and is able to gently calm his younger self down.

Rin is fascinated but also appalled because 1. How the fuck did yukio get even taller?? and 2. Why the fuck was older yukio's tail longer than his??

It's revealed that one of older yukio's sons AND older rin's daughter had somehow made off with the kamikakushi key and toddled their way here, so he chased in a panic. Younger yukio was still wrapping his head around the fact that this other version of him was married while rin was trying to get older yukio to tell him who he married.

They do find older yukio's son, Kohaku, which is actually the younger twin to Shiro. Rin almost sobs at how he named him after their dad, but he actually starts bawling uncontrollably when he sees his older self's daughter, Yuri, named after their mother.

Without giving away too much even though their timelines don't affect each other, older yukio tells them that there's a lot to look forward to in the future. The worst is over, and moving forward will bring them peace.

ALTERNATIVELY

If this happened like, before yukio's mental break on dominus liminus, younger yukio would have freaked the fuck out and started mass panicking trying to kill himself harder because oh no no no I cannot possibly become a demon like nii-san oh no no-

Yeah no my baby needs peace… not… everything else.

@aonokumura

Staring. Frozen, like he's seen a ghost. And he certainly believes he has. He looks to be on the verge of tears, but there's fear in his eyes as well. Is this some sort of hallucination? A demon playing a trick on him, messing with his mind? ...another guilt-induced nightmare?

Of all the things Shiro expected to see on the other side of the monastery doors, this - this boy; his boy - wasn't it.

He was supposed to see the academy grounds. Mephisto's magic key system worked flawlessly like that (which made traveling quite convenient whenever it needed to be done), so finding himself face to face not with the front lot of his monastery but the open grounds of the True Cross Academy was to be expected. It was his intention, in fact. With the boys' things finally packed (mainly Rin's, since Yukio had done most of the leg work on his own property in preparation for his move to the academy before everything went to shit), Shiro was finally prepping to transfer things over so the two of them could live comfortably while they resettled at the academy. He wanted to see the academy, and to see his boys.

And yet--

His grip around the door handle tightened.

So much of what he saw before him was wrong. There was Rin's new demonic features, of course; The literal manifestation of Shiro's worst nightmares come to life. But it wasn't just that. His boy's true nature was likely turning into some kind of inevitable anyway, judging by the way Mephisto spoke about it earlier over the phone, but even so. Much as he wanted Rin to grow up and be a normal, regular, safe, unsuspecting human, there had just been too many signs throughout the boy's life to ever let Shiro truly believe that. He had hoped for the best, but prepared for the worst too. Or so he liked to believe.

No, what stood out above all else was the way Rin looked at him. Like he was some kind of ghost come to haunt the poor thing.

"Rin?" Without a second thought, Shiro crossed the magic threshold between the monastery and the academy, letting the door shut itself behind him while he approached the boy. "What's happened, son? What's going on?"

Blue Exorcist!!! (very fond of that!) 3, 5, 11, 17?

hi robin !!!! :]

3. quickly list 3 things you like about the story!

rin and yukio's dynamic; the theme of "demonic" entities being capable of love and compassion and "normal" beings loving and accepting those entities for everything they are, "demonic" features included; mephisto.

5. do you have a favorite character? who?

rin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everybody look at him how could u Not love this stupit idiot

11. if you were put in the main character's position, how well would that go for you on a scale of 1-5?

definitely a 1 i am not brave enough to battle demons.on the bright side i have a tail and fangs and cool ears and also a sword. such a shame i'll live w those things for like 2 days before i get killed by the goddamn vatican

17. compare this story to your usual tastes. how does it differ from what you've already enjoyed?

i originally watched blue exorcist back in like ? middle school or smth. somewhere around there, my memory is bad. anyway i think it's pretty in line w stuff i usually like, especially rin's Entire Character, but it Does involve a lot of religion and religious imagery that i don't usually watch. i know nothing of religion—i wasn't raised to believe in any particular one—so i simply don't rly seek it out. the vibes r fun tho

[jackson-imbecille]

DUDE i fucking know right?? The new art for blue exorcist is so fucking awful WHY did they DO THAT??? Rin and Yukio look completely different. They even changed how their dorm looks for some fucking reason????? JUST LEAVE IT ALONE

Yeah! And one of the first things that happens when a show starts being animated is they make sure everyone can draw the characters on model. Which means that this change was deliberate!

And they severely toned down Rin’s inhuman features, like his eyes, teeth, fire, and ears. Like bro, what the fuck? He doesn’t need to be metaphorically declawed in order to be more relatable and likeable. If anything, the juxtaposition between his personality and status as a half demon was a main appeal.

Like every other character, the subversion from expectations set due to pre-established tropes makes him super interesting, but toning down his appearance lessens the effect quite a bit.

To be honest, I think everyone should just read the manga. It’s fantastic, it’s beautifully drawn, the creator takes her time to make sure it’s good instead of rushing herself, it’s really well thought out, and it’s so fun to read.

There isn’t a single anime or manga series that I have remained interested in other than the Blue Exorcist manga. I used to watch tons of anime and read tons of manga as a kid, but I don’t at all anymore. Except Blue Exorcist. I love it so much I have physical copies of every volume.

It’s so good and I need everyone to read it because so many people are just watching the anime and thinking that the story must just be wack and disappointing because of that.

Rin growing up in the Myoo Dharani

Rin's power grew far to fast for Kurikara and the seal to handle, leading to it cracking ever so slightly and releasing the tiniest bit of Rin's power. It's not enought for his flames or demonic features to show, but demons are more attracted to him and that he's ableto feel their presence (he's not able to see them, but he gets the feeling of someone being there when they are near him). Shiro fears the sword taking further damage and fully realising Rin's demons powers , not to mention that all the demons who are suddenly attracted to their monestary are drawing the attention of the Vatican on them.

After talks with Mephisto and Tatsuma, Shiro decides with a heavy heart that it would be best to send Rin away to live with the Myoo Dharani. It wouldn't be too weird to have them attract demons with everything that happened on the blue night, Rin would always be sorounded by exorcists and if there are any problems with the sword the chance is higher for them to know what to do than Shiro.

Rin is seven years old when he leaves for Kyoto. He believes that Shiro abandoned him and kept his brother since he's the "problem child". The fact that everyone around him is very secretive about the reason why he suddenly has to go doesn't help the situation at all.

Torako takes Rin under her wing after he arrived, he's not really involved in all the religious or exorcist bits but he helps out at the inn a lot. In the beginning everyone was a bit wary of him but they warm up sooner or later. He still get's into fights at school a lot, but that's because he starts going after the people who pick on Bon, Shima and Konekomaru. The Myoo Dharani know that Rin is a nephilim, but only Tatsuma knows he's a son of Satan.

Rin usually spends his time following around and helping out Torako, at some point everyone just sort of started to accept Rin as the unoffical heir of the inn. He has a great relationship with the Kyoto Trio and enjoys to cook for the whole organisation.

While outwardly very cheerfull and happy , deep down Rin has anger festering, at himself and at Shiro. He believes he was abandoned by the people he thought were family. When he left Yukio had promised to send letter and call him, but it nee´ver happened. None of Rin's letters were answered or calls recieved. Rin thinks it's because they view him as useless and are glad he's gone, in reality Yukio couldn't keep up contact with Rin to avoid drawing attention to them from the Vatican. Despite it all Rin rows up to be just as nice as in canon, he plans on taking over the inn from Torako and does his best to support Bon and the rest of the organization.

His plans come crashing down when he's 16 and his powers are finally too big to be handeled by the sword. A demon attacked Bon and Rin jumps to save him, using his flames to protect him. Lots of drama happens, the Myoo Dharani find out about Rin's father and everything blows over suprisingly well. At the beginning there are some weird times ofcourse but they all knew Rin since he was small and they reassure him that they still love him.

He does have to go to cram school to become an exorcist, though. Rin accompanies Bon, Shima and Konekomaru to do so. The twist here is that when he's back in Tokyo, Shiro and Yukio try to reach out to him again. They think that now Rin knows about his heritage and will become an exorcist it's safe enought again to talk to him again. The problem is that Rin has no interest at all to reconnect.

All Rin sees when looking at them is the family that abandoned him because ''he was too much trouble'' and now suddenly wanna talk again for god knows what reason. He's openly hostile. He refuses to call Yukio his brother or Shiro his father. He openly states that he has no family other than the Myoo Dharani and there's nothing anyone could do to change that.

The Kyoto Trio is also very hostile to both Yukio and Shiro. Shiro is their homeroom teacher in this and Yukio his assistant. The trio make an efford in avoiding them and keeping Rin away from Yukio and Shiro.

Skin and Bone, a yukishima drabble

I can't sleep; I need to take a break from what I started writing a few days ago, so a quick drabble may be a nice way to clear the mind. I'm still quite new to fanfiction writing, so I apologize in advance for any inconsistencies... 🙏

Skin and Bone

Shima clearly remembers when he noticed it for the first time; no way he can ever forget it. 

Back then, he had seen his sensei without his usual exorcist coat on just once, when demons sprang up in the old boys' dorm, but he was focused more on teasing his young teacher than on appreciating his features. Besides, even if he managed to spot Yukio from between the crowd of his groupies in the school gardens during the lunch break once in a while, he had never noticed the boy taking his jacket off, even if the temperature outside was making Shima feel his brain could melt into a puddle of mud in any second. 

However, Shima would lie if he admitted he paid any attention to Yukio's outfit choices these days; he had rather wondered if any exorcism technique could make him switch places with his teacher, who clearly had a hard time fighting his own embarrassment.

And then, the training camp happened. 

Of course, it ended quite unexpectedly, and Shima still can recall the devastating pain of his broken ribs (he can swear he wasn't exaggerating!). Still, there's another memory he associates with this event, and that lives in his heart rent-free.

When the initial shock caused by seeing Yukio in his shirt only was slowly fading, Shima laid his eyes upon that beautifully exposed part of his teacher's body and automatically scolded himself for not noticing this extraordinary treasure earlier.  

He felt like the world's best-kept secret had been revealed to him and him only, even if he wasn't the only witness of the scene that had just happened before him. Suddenly he found himself fighting the urge to shoo Bon and Koneko away, but at the same time, he wasn't able to move even a bit; he was too much focused on not letting the others know about his newly awoken admiration.

Because Yukio's forearms were an embodiment of sin. 

Unable to take his eyes off the outlined shape of his elbow, off those pale, flawless seas of skin, marred only by barely noticeable scars and few moles (he absolutely expected them to be there), Shima had a feeling that he wouldn't hesitate to sell his soul to be allowed to put a single touch on them. The position Yukio stood in emphasized the wonderfully toned muscles, and Shima's fingertips itched to trace and memorize every inch of them. 

But then Yukio moved, ready to resume the preparations for setting the camp up.

Shima remembers it was also the first time he had difficulty switching to his regular flirty persona and pretending that nothing happened for the rest of the evening. Then a series of unfortunate events occurred (including the disgusting feeling of chuuchi on his own skin), but the first impression was strong enough to imprint the image of Yukio's forearms on Shima's mind. 

These days, even if months had passed, Shima still clearly remembered himself staring in awe at their young teacher. He was eternally grateful for every time he had a chance to peek again at Yukio's exposed skin; in the hospital, when he was telling them about twins' roots, after the battle with the Impure King (twice!), during the preparations for their cross-dressing shenanigans while investigating the Seven Mysteries of True Cross Academy, and finally, on Dominus Liminis, when Shima couldn't believe his own luck that Yukio let him see his fully recovered arm (at that moment his perfectly mastered deceiving skills had failed him mercilessly; he found pretending genuine disgust when nearly having a heart attack one of the toughest experiences in his life). 

There's one thing that Shima has to admit in this case - he didn't even notice when the simply animalistic urge to touch that particular part of Yukio's body turned into the yearning for being allowed to touch not only his skin but also the deepest parts of Yukio's soul. He isn't exactly sure, but it could be the moment when he noticed Yukio sitting on the ground, still a little bit dizzy after the aftermath of Satan's rampage, yet safe and sound. Or maybe even before these events, when the Exwires and their teacher had a meal together for the first time since he couldn't even remember when? 

But today, it just doesn't matter, not when he feels the soft purrs of Yukio's breath on his own neck and when the body of a half-asleep dragoon is wrapped around him, and he has free access to a bit more scarred skin of his forearm because it lies on Shima's chest (Shima is exceptionally proud of himself that he once again succeeded in dragging Yukio into the bed once they returned from a tough mission). Once he starts tracing idle patterns, already knowing by heart the place of every single scar there, Yukio murmurs his usual "don't," but Shima (also as usual) ignores him and keeps caressing his favorite spots. 

There's no way Shima will ever forget the first impression Yukio's forearms had on him because he relives this experience with every single touch, again and again. The only difference is that Yukio's now fully aware of his fascination, and Shima can't help feeling that even if Yukio keeps denying him the right of forearm worship, moments like this prove that deep down, he thinks otherwise.

Please may I have Blue exorcist headcanons of being the younger brother of Rin and Yukio Okumura and his name is Yukihiro which means "Ocean of snow" in Japanese and he is 11 years old. Yukihiro did inherit his father's deadly blue flames but he controls them extremely well and it was like a gentle heat on a cold day. He had the same demonic features as Rin had like and Yukihiro exhibits a number of physical traits that are signs of his demonic nature, such as sharper-looking teeth, slightly pointed ears, and a black, fur-tufted tail (he keeps it hidden under his shirt). Yukihiro wore glasses due to having poor eyesight like his older brother. He is a upper first class Exorcist for his Knight, Dragoon user, Doctor and Tamer and Aira as his Meisters and he showed potential of actually becoming the next Paladin and he showed the right material for it. Yuri Egin died giving birth to him when the Okumura twins were 4 years old.

Personality:

He is exactly like Harry Potter from the Harry Potter movies and he has Harry Potter's sweet personality and Harry Potter's personality from the movies. He is extremely brave for a 11 year old boy and maybe certainly too brave as he is willing to go up against extremely dangerous/powerful demons to defend his friends and his family *Yukihiro always had the upper hand*. Yukihiro doesn't find danger because it always finds him and it follows him like a bad cold but he is used to it *Yukio certainly wasn't considering how his little brother is a constant target for some reason or another*. His appearance made him an easy bullying target but he was certainly not weak and his rather savage attitude and sarcastic comments to their mean comments either outright embarrassed them or made them regret what they said and he is the son of Satan so when a kid brought his big brother after Yukihiro had totally deflected his mean comments with sarcasm..Yukihiro called the kid a coward for bringing his brother over just because Yukihiro was unable to be bullied..the bully's older brother tried to beat him up and the older brother ended up with several broken ribs and a sprained ankle as well as a broken neck which meant that the older brother was immediately hospitalised (bare in mind that the older brother is 25 and Yukihiro is 11). He also has Harry's temper and how he makes things happen when angry or scared exactly like Harry Potter.

Satan is using Yukihiro as his personal vessel..it sometimes caused Yukihiro great deal of pain like how Voldemort causes Harry.. so when Satan pushed him over the edge once and Yukihiro screamed at his father on the verge of tears; "I said..GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" https://youtu.be/wrlnnqvnEIE?si=4fmpq6PoFrvuCgPn (exactly like that and it caused some car alarms to go off in the distance).

When Ryūjj called Yukihiro out for being the son of Satan, Yukihiro..was crying silently and he called Ryūjj disgusting for assuming that he was going to be evil as his father and yes. He hated what Satan had done and he was sorry that many lives were lost during the blue night incident but he told Ryūjj to never accuse him of sh*tty things ever again. https://youtu.be/gLVTeHPu_kY?si=G4pTiCjeW2HarEGT (how hurt Yukihiro felt ost and he felt hurt and understandably so)

Yukihiro is certainly fully independent and he can look after himself. Yukihiro did the chores around the boys dorms and the cooking *he is extremely good at it* and the homework. Yukihiro does have Coulrophobia though which means that he has a phobia of clowns..he got a bit antsy during Halloween and mistakenly shot a poor guy who was Renzō's brother who was in a clown costume in the leg when Yukihiro saw him..(Yukihiro had a bit of a unpleasant experience due to when he was locked in a haunted house ride as a joke and he was stuck in there for hours before Yukio found his poor brother in complete hysterics..the repeated sound effects of the clown laughter drove him crazy and not in a good way and he hated clowns ever since..)

"Why is it..when something happens..it was always Yukihiro in the middle of it?" Was the question Yukio asked often when Yukihiro's name is mentioned during a incident once again. Yukihiro saved the lives of other people time and time and time again despite the risks and the danger he may potentially put himself in but he still took the risks. Yukihiro's smiles are precious as anything and they are exactly like Harry Potter's and people were actually willing to talk to him when he has a friendly smile (he wasn't expecting to talk to older female teenagers but they seem to be flirting with him but in a friendly platonic way of course and Yukihiro stayed polite and their intentions were friendly). Yukihiro is an extremely brave, loyal and selfless person who possess tremendous strength of character. Yukihiro will go great lengths and risks to help others, particularly his family.

Yukihiro is someone who is struggling to do the right thing, who is not without faults, who acts impetuously as you would expect someone of his age to act, but who is ultimately a very loyal person, and a very very courageous person. So, in as much as he has qualities that people admire most and some would say he is a good role model. That doesn't mean that he is saintly, but then frankly, who is? But I think you do see enough of Yukihiro's inner life, the workings of his mind in the books to know that he is ultimately human (he isn't like his biological father), struggling to do the right thing, which admittedly people do think is admirable.

Yukihiro is perfectly prepared to put his friends' needs and best interests first, shown by how he ended his relationship with Ginny Weasley, due to his concern for her well being (even though being with her was one of the best things that ever happened to him). The amount of trust that Yukihiro put into his friends was so strong that he absolutely refused to consider that any of them would betray him to Satan. Considering that Yukihiro knew a person (Peter Pettigrew) who had betrayed all of his closest friends to Satan, this proves Yukihiro's ability to love so unequivocally.

The closeness that Yukihiro felt for many was great enough for him to behave violently if any of them were harmed whenever it was physically or mentally. When Shiro was murdered by Satan, Yukihiro attacked Satan in a grief-stricken state rage of righteous anger and attempted to strike him with his sword. This highlights Yukihiro's bravery even further because Yukihiro is fully aware that Snape and Bellatrix were two very skilled and experienced duellists, but did not hesitate to harm them as soon as he was pushed into it. This can also happen if a loved one of his is, even if it isn't true, insulted in front of him, as he so enraged he was seriously considering attacking Mephisto. However, Yukihiro was also accused of being arrogant, in particular by Severus Snape (although Snape's perspective was skewed due to his poor relationship with Satan *it was possibly due to Satan murdering his family was the reason for his hate*, and Yukihiro often found being discriminated and feared very difficult), and Yukihiro could sometimes be hot-tempered and impulsive and this could sometimes make him rude to authority figures such as Mephisto and Shura Kirigakure which he wasn't particularly proud of.

Yukihiro is prone to moodiness and unkind remarks towards even his friends *he was no Saint*, though this is likely the result of the great emotional stress and trials he endured during this period. Yukihiro displayed many signs of clinical depression due to stress of being the son of Satan which he hated. Yukihiro showed signs of these symptoms: general discontent, guilt, hopelessness, mood swings, insomnia (nightmares), agitation, irritability, social isolation and even lack of concentration. Yukihiro was also not one to let bygones be bygones. He had a vindictive streak that made him vengeful at best and spiteful at worse towards those who did him wrong. This varied from wanting to murder/torture those who had performed unforgivable acts for their crimes or would rather be petty and he spent the entirety of the demon hunt angry at Mephisto for the latter's lack of trust.

Yukihiro possessed an instinctual, intuitive intelligence. This intelligence allowed him to make intellectual leaps, as opposed to the logical intelligence of some people. Yukihiro is also known for wanting to tackle challenges and obstacles on his own, without the aid or interference of others. His siblings and Rin's friends had to frequently remind him that he needed their assistance and that he "did not always have to go it alone".

Yukihiro also seemed to have a bit of an obsessive personality, a trait he shared with his father Satan, He could be somewhat nosy and was known for sleuthing around and getting involved in things that did not concern him. Yukihiro's greatest strength was his ability to feel love, despite having a miserable childhood of being feared by others. Yukihiro is extremely loyal to and protective of his loved ones. Shura noted that Yukihiro is unfailingly kind and compassionate. This is shown by how he stood up for Shiemi when she was being bullied/manipulated by Izumo and this is likely attributable to his childhood, during which the fear of those outside his circle deprived him of compassion and discriminated against him due to his demonic blood. His compassionate led him to spare the life of Igor despite various attempts on his life. Also, Yukihiro is not a cruel person and he never wished anyone harm. He rarely initiated duels, instead fighting in self-defence. 

Remus Lupin once noted that Yukihiro had very good and nearly always right instincts. Yukihiro had a strong awareness of the incalculable power of certain acts and he refused to let Remus get hurt for his sake. In some ways, Yukihiro can become extremely intimidating toward people, such as Rin Okumura, Renzō Shima, Kuro, and Konekomaru Miwa. Yukihiro can be extremely frightening when pushed to the point of anger or extreme annoyance (it was due to his demonic nature which is exactly like Rin's anger). When in a bad mood and argumentative, even Yukihiro's closest friends had been wary of him, usually replying to his angry tone in a calm and appeasing voice. The only person who did not appear to be afraid of him when he was angry (other than his teachers and other authority figures in his life) was definitely Yukio Okumura. Shiro was a special case, as he is a father towards his adopted son, Yukihiro and had managed to successfully calm him down whenever he got angry with him and that included Yukio (Yukio always managed to successfully calm him down as well). Yukihiro is the king of sarcasm and sass and he is the youngest brother of the Okumura siblings (he used sarcasm against Yukio's lectures when Yukihiro had been reckless once again). He made a fair few friends like Hermione and Ron Weasley like from the Harry Potter movies and they're upper first class Exorcists as well for their Meisters and Ron's family basically accepted Yukihiro in the family like another son. Yukihiro had a uncanny ability to read the room and it's situations and he can read people's body language and facial expressions straight away so he knew whenever someone had good or bad intentions and he basically knows someone through how they act regarding their mannerisms and behaviour/personality and he can certainly read social situations extremely well.

Yukihiro found it quite hard to forgive Ryūjj for a while due to him outing him for being Satan's son due the trials he endured for a while and told Ryūjj to drop dead where he stood after kicking him straight in the privates and punching him in the solar plexus. Yukihiro evidently forgave him a while afterwards..

Yukihiro does seem to get into dangerous situations all the time..he was a constant target by danger as it always finds him. He is spontaneous as his brother too and one of those many times was this: https://youtu.be/J53idmmfIaQ?si=mUbSW9Y0INfQZgyG (go to 1:14 of when several people, including Ryūjj warned him not to rush straight towards danger; "Yukihiro no!" Was the responses from several of Rin's classmates)

Abilities:

He has inhuman strength and speed (exactly like what Rin Okumura has). He winded Ryūjj when he punched him but Yukihiro held back alot of his strength to avoid hurting him too much.

He can see demons and he can understand Kuro.

He can speak to demons as well and like Satan..he can talk to them and he had the ability to open the gate of Gehenna which he wished he didn't have and he had to put some sort of seal on each arm to prevent that and it was similar to the one that was between Shura's breasts and he was happy that it worked when he was unable to the open the gate of Gehenna due to the seals.

Appearance:

He wears his glasses due to having poor eyesight like his older brother. He mostly wore a white t-shirt along with black boots and blue trousers and a tartan shirt over his t-shirt. He bore a strong resemblance to Yukio and he had his moles as well but their personalities are certainly different from each other but he certainly looks like a mini Yukio due to genetics. He wore the similar clothes that Harry Potter wears and most of his clothes were hand-me-downs from Yukio and Rin.

Other things about Yukihiro Okumura:

1. Yukihiro did have a good social group of friends who didn't care who he was related to and It was extremely weird for Yukihiro when Ron was in awe of his black furry tail.

2. Ron Weasley is well exactly like from the Harry Potter movies but he is more braver and his personality is from the later movies and Yukihiro wonders why Ron is even a Upper first class Exorcist sometimes though and Hermione is exactly like from the Harry Potter movies as well and her personality is from the later movies.

3. It was extremely awkward when he received some pretty nice stuff from his friend's mother. Molly Weasley is actually extremely nice and she treated him as her own son..she didn't care that Yukihiro is the son of Satan..and she told him that and it was clear that Molly is sincere as well as kind and she meant every word..it was fair to say that he began to cry at her kind words..Yukihiro was just a boy who suffered greatly.

4. One of those times that Yukihiro used his abilities as a demon was against the illuminati and his speciality is water and not in the way that you will expect when you think that the room or building is totally flooded. The Tamer summoning Aira of "you'll float too" was another way of ending an enemy's life. https://youtu.be/emJyQfDdUc8?si=vhrz7xhspZCKi4Mu (exactly like how the little boy was saying it was exactly how Yukihiro said it). It would be a lie if it didn't frighten the absolute hell out of scientist who regretted making Izumo cry. The familiar who Yukihiro had a contract with was barely seen when the familiar pulled the illuminati scientists under the water one by one and thus ending them. Yukihiro is not someone to be crossed..that's for sure and he was incredibly dangerous in a fight.

5. Yukihiro being possessed by Satan at certain stressful moments had clearly gotten Ron and Hermione in a serious bind when Yukihiro began to laugh in a horrific fashion which sounded alot like Satan and Ron had to snap him out of it by slapping him across the face which he wished that he didn't have to do.

6. Yukihiro went through a lot of crap in his life. Yukihiro is also the vessel for Satan and Satan lives inside Yukihiro. Yukihiro was in dangerous situations daily.

7. Yukihiro unintentionally made stuff happen like when he made glass vanish in a zoo before Shiro's death after Yukihiro had been pushed aside rather rudely by a kid who is a year older than him and he had accidentally set a snake, a lion and a tiger free and it basically spread a panic throughout the zoo buildings and a kid got trapped inside a snake department and Shiro ended up owing the baffled zoo keepers money for the damage costs.

8. Yukihiro does often get embarrassed when people realise they had forgotten his birthday and wanted to get him something (he was used to just the normal birthdays in the Monastery with Shiro and the other exorcists he grew up with before Shiro's passing and Yukio ended up as Yukihiro's guardian after Shiro's death.)

9. Yukihiro is pretty generous with his money and he brought Rin expensive lunches that he liked and he brought Izumo's favourite dress that Izumo liked which was in a shop window for her birthday..Yukihiro certainly had a vast amount of wealth as he worked in the higher class as a exorcist..he is pretty wise with what he does with his money as he is careful with it.

10. Yukihiro talked in his sleep at times and his siblings can hear him next door and being used as Satan's vessel didn't help him and suffering from nightmares too didn't help.

11. Yukihiro's birthday is the 25th of December which basically made him a "Christmas day baby" and it was pretty rare.

12. Yukihiro's familiar is a white owl.. who he had named as Hedwig exactly like from the Harry Potter series as well and it was extremely rare for Yukihiro to have a familiar like that.

13. Yukihiro held back most of his inhuman strength but you know when you're royally screwed if he didn't hold back at all. When Hedwig got hurt after Amaimon thought it would be a good idea to mess with her and Amaimon broke her wings..Yukihiro just went and casually threw a whole mountain at Amaimon and bare in mind that it would've killed Amaimon straight away if he was a normal human and Yukihiro cared about his familiars and Hedwig was in serious condition for a while and visibly in pain and Hedwig couldn't fly for 8 months until her wings had healed fully due to this. Yukihiro was extremely pissed off and had every right to be..because Amaimon had hurt his familiar.

14. One incident of Yukihiro being nosy..had caused him to have his nose broken and he ended up with a bloody nose until Yukio had to treat it..not without Yukio scolding him for getting involved in something dangerous which gotten him hurt..Yukio was admittedly more worried than angry genuinely because it was a stupid thing to do.

15. Yukihiro usually goes to Yukio or Shiemi when he is upset about something that Rin did.

16. Yukihiro's tail wags in a friendly manner when he is hugging someone who he loves.

17. Yukihiro is a skilled cook and an incredibly good one. He was also a chocolate maker and a cake maker...he often made cakes for big events or for someone's wedding or birthday..it was worth it when he saw the smiles on his clients faces...Yukihiro was pretty busy all year.

18. Yukihiro is extremely good at thinking on his feet and extremely smart and quick..it was probably due to danger always finding him..

19. Yukihiro's tears had healing properties but he never really mentioned it because there was some people in the world who would personally use him as a test subject but he did heal Rin's cut with it pretty easily.

20. Yukihiro had told Shiemi in tears once; "Shiemi, you know..you're the type of big sister that I wished I always had. I'm so sorry.." https://youtu.be/gtj4vr8RMpk?si=0kFHOFoSU7EVwqvP (was how he spoke to her before he had left to join the illuminati alongside Yukio genuinely to protect Rin )

21. Admittedly, Yukihiro is much of a crybaby that Yukio used to be and he didn't really want to be teased about it..the stress did get to him at times due to his demonic bloodline.

22. Tease him and you'll regret it..Shura's beer went missing when Yukihiro destroyed them after Shura teased him for being a crybaby.

23. Yukihiro wasn't the person to start fights..but when a kid (who wasn't attending the funeral) made some pretty nasty jokes about Shiro during Shiro's funeral..Yukihiro completely slugged the bully across the face and broke the kid's jaw..Yukio had to hold him back after seeing that nasty sight.

24. Yukihiro does feel quite ill at times and Satan was the cause of his insomnia issues at times and nightmares.

25. Yukihiro's favourite food is Katsu Curry which was completely different from Rin's and Yukio's favourite food.

Relationships:

Shiro Fuijmoto's relationship with his youngest adopted son..how he felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro.

Rin Okumura's relationship with his youngest brother and how he felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro. (Eg. Dementors and so on). How would he react to Ron Weasley and Hermione..they are actually Yukihiro's classmates to put it simply and as well as Yukihiro's friends/colleagues.

Yukio Okumura's relationship with his little brother and how he felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro. (Eg. Dementors and so on) How would he react to Ron Weasley and Hermione..they are actually Yukihiro's classmates to put it simply and Yukihiro's friends/colleagues. How he felt when he became Yukihiro's guardian..Yukihiro does trust him better than Rin.

Kuro's relationship with Yukihiro Okumura and how he felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro.

Ryūjj Suguro's relationship with Yukihiro Okumura and how he felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro.

Konekomaru Miwa's relationship with Yukihiro Okumura and how he felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro.

Renzō Shima's relationship with Yukihiro Okumura and how he felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro.

Shiemi Moriyama's relationship with Yukihiro Okumura and how she felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro.

Izumo Kamiki's relationship with Yukihiro Okumura and how she felt about danger constantly finding Yukihiro.

Mephisto's relationship with his brother.

Shura Kirigakure's relationship with Yukihiro Okumura

Who would be more likely to act as a parent to Yukihiro? Yukio or Rin..*I do believe it would probably be Yukio anyway..*

(Don't bother with the previous request of the Oc *the one who is Shiro's wife* that I've sent you..I realised that it didn't make sense when i looked at the notes)

Hi! Thank you for your request! Sorry it took so long. As I mentioned before, this is a bit long to be read easily so I've put the headcanons in a separate post and linked the original ask for anyone who wants to read it.

The headcanons can be found here! I hope you like them!

[tonguetiedraven]

Have you ever wrote something with protective big brother Mephisto? I never see enough! I definitely feel like he'd spoil and shower Rin in love and affection after he comes in his care, especially if Yukio is being an ass

Plus Rin is a prince.. and he has never got treated like one, I feel like Mephisto would try to make up for lost time. (Also Mephisto going damn near feral on Angel for stabbing Rin would be just amazing)

I am not good at writing Mephisto, but thankfully one of my fellow writers on the writer server @thebeingofeverything) stepped in with some recs for Mephy&Rin interactions (the descriptions are tboe's)

Cinder Cough, sfw, no TW, Amai/Rin ship. Deals with Rin reaching his sweet (demon) 16 and Mephisto throwing a ball for him as is tradition. Features great depiction of the many issues between Rin and Yukio and an increasingly more manic Mephisto trying to throw the perfect Debutante affair for Rin as Gehenna's prince deserves. https://archiveofourown.org/works/26568415

Discovering Oneself is a mentor!Mephisto & Rin fic, no ship or tw. It kills me there's only 1 ch for it bc it explores some great stuff about Mephisto being one of the few demons in the position to help Rin learn about what it means to be a demon while keeping them both in character. https://archiveofourown.org/works/20954579

Letterverse by @yukiokumura and @29rynoah also has a lot of great Mephisto and Rin moments if that's something you enjoy. Ship is BonRin, Mephisto/Shirou, Yukio/Renzou and the triggers are tagged :) https://archiveofourown.org/series/67566

[dragontamer05]

Ngl I think Blue Exorcist is like the first Series I've read where they actually acknowledge/ do something with the fact that BOTH Yukio and Rin are the children of satan.

Like so often when you have like siblings and one inherits like idk the power/ something off the other. It weirdly gets treated as One being the "child of X' or saying they're "half X" and just sorta ignores the fact that the other sibling still technically by all accounts is also a child of that parent as well making them also technically a 'half x'- even is say they didn't inherit an innate ability or certain features or whatever.

Sure Yukio may not have inherited Satans Blue Flame and Rin seems to have acquired more of the demonic traits / side of things. But like Yukio is still a child of satan- and I'd argue that still technically makes him half demon powers or not-

It just took a bit longer for Yukio's abilities to appear.

--

At bare minimum they at least think to have the characters bring up and question Yukio early on, that uh 'Hey you know you're also Satan's kid to.."

[monurey]

A crossover of the characters of Blue Exorcist in the Disney's Descendants world!

Instead of "Auradon" and "Isle of the Lost" it's "Assiah" and "Gehenna"

Rin and Yukio were separated at a young age when it was discovered Yukio didn't have any demon features

Yukio was raised in Assiah with the rest of the Exorcist class, the Vatican and generally all the humans

Father Fujimoto is like the King and Yukio is the Prince

Rin was raised in Gehenna with all the other demons

He was raised by Mephistio and is also close with Amaimon

Yukio gets the opportunity to run a program, where Gehenna kids get the opportunity to attend Assiah prep

Demons are seen as unpredictable, so Amaimon and Rin are the trial run for the Gehenna kids going

Yukio and Rin don't really remember each other, but once Rin arrives they quickly discover they're actually twins

Yukio tried really hard to make Rin fit in, but there's a lot of social and cultural boundaries which make understanding each other difficult

Rin uses this "Assiah royalty" status at first to gain things he wants like a big bedroom and a kitchen where he can experiment, as well as to get away with things

Rin along the way also develops feelings for a certain AK, Ryuji "Bon" Suguro

Also a bit of a side plot, Shiemi and Yukio are together, but then she catches (unrequited) feelings for Rin and things get complicated

Can't decide if Yukio breaks up with Shiemi and dates Shima or not yet
