OH MY GOD it connects to the POV character IT CONNECTS TO YU holy shit HOLY SHIT YUPOMU REAL

[festivalofthe12]

This honestly sounds really cute and I'd totally read it! :)

If you want my unsolicited suggestions: I think it'd work to make them not made fun of if you really go in in Ayumu's, like, 'eww parents being all lovey-dovey in front of me >:(' reactions; like, objectively they're just incredibly wholesome and functional, even despite their pretty complicated arrangement! Ooh ooh, and this contrasts with Ayumu and how much she's dragging her heels with confessing to Yu, despite how long she's felt that way - and she only needs to make it work with one person, not three!! On top of Ayumu just Hating the situation because, does that mean she and Yu can't be together if they're 'really' siblings?! and sorta... lashing out a bit in unhelpful ways because of that.

On the topic of fanfiction I'm not writing, I don't think I've mentioned here my most persistent Nijigasaki plotbunny:

Ayumu and Yu discovering — and coming to terms with the fact — that their four collective parents have actually been a polycule for over a decade.

Half of this is my honest suspicion about the situation — really, the two families who've lived in adjacent apartments since before their kids were in school take all their vacations together? — and half is just wanting to play with Marmalade Boy-style shenanigans. Unlike a lot of my fic ideas, there's actually a story here, but I'm vague on some details, and it's been a very long time since I wrote anything as long as this would need to be.

I figure Ayumu would discover this first (both because she's going to fret about things more and because Yu is, as a harem protagonist, contractually obligated to be more oblivious to things), probably by seeing something she wasn't supposed to. Let's say she is running back up the stairs to get the lunch she forgot when she sees each set of parents kissing each other goodbye. She stops, embarrassed, and decides to give them a moment instead of interrupting, which is why she's still standing there to see her dad kiss Yu's mom, and her mom kiss Yu's dad. It's then mostly her shock that keeps her watching the couples regroup again to have the husbands kiss each other, and the wives. (I want the relationship to be totally mutual and all of them bi; part of this is avoiding some of the tropes around combining two married couples and part is that I think it's just more interesting.)

(To avoid the more unsavory end of the Marmalade Boy shenanigans, I think I want it clear that the couples first met each other after the kids were born.)

The next bit would presumably be Ayumu re-evaluating a number of memories — oh, god, was that why Yu and I got our own hotel room on vacation? Why our moms were giggling when our dads went on that fishing trip? — and I think it's funniest most productive if she confides in Setsuna before confronting Yu. Setsuna, then, has to balance being a good friend and comforting Ayumu against letting her imagination treat the situation like fiction and getting overly excited.

And then there's the sequence where Ayumu actually does tell Yu. And I think it'll take a bit for Ayumu to actually spell out the situation and get what's going on I kind of think Yu will under-react, from Ayumu's perspective — this is huge, why isn't she more bothered by this? Because after a little bit of surprise, Yu is going to be largely supportive of their parents, because they're happy, aren't they?

Which is all leading to Ayumu considering how close Yu is to the other club members. "Hitori dake nante erabenai yo!" and all that. Is a relationship like that what Yu wants?

And considering how Ayumu herself feels about some of the other girls — is it what she herself wants?

Anyway. Writing all that out helps some. But turning this into a story would involve a few difficulties. First off, I'd need to turn the parents into full OCs, and flesh out their relationships with their kids a little more — they've been very firmly off-screen.

hey i apologize in advance if this is a little sliding into a stranger's asks with an off topic rant like that one "anon goes to mcdonalds" reaction image but. god. how sometimes the love live fandom feels divided yu haters and yu enjoyers??? like some people really like her and others hate her with a burning passion. <- i'm probably just salty though because some person put a post complaining about yu in the yupomu tag??? what.

unfortunately people will hate on anything and everything, even the beam of sunshine that is yu takasaki. she's more divisive than some other characters though, I will agree, due to her position in the stories.

dick move to put yu hate in a yu ship tag though yeah that's. not very nice. I've not seen the post myself but that seems like a bad idea.
