hanako & aiko | quarantine gift exchange
word count: 873 words
warnings: none
note: and here is my gift for honey! unfortunately I have no way to tag her here, but I hope she enjoys it when she sees this nonetheless. this is, essentially, fanfic about fanfic. I absolutely adore her oc— aiko— from her fic hiraeth (I’m so glad this event allowed me to find it ahh, so a big shout out to her! much love, honey!) (edit: oh! here you go, @hanideyumeron​!!)
Tumblr media
He was an unfortunate lad.
He had been dealt a bad hand in life in the beginning, and it appeared to go downhill from there. Evidently so, as his life was cut short much too soon.
Death was a big change. One he reluctantly had to swallow. Everything else was a constant, even now. How long had it been since he had a view different from the one the old school building offered? Huh. He was true to his words: He’d never go anywhere.
He was never particularly receptive to modifications being made to his routine. After all, routine involved habituality, and that implied he had a degree of control over his— granted, pitiful— existence. A notion he’d greedily hold on to if it kept him sane.
The one change he welcomed was her. He was incredibly thankful life allowed “Kobayashi-senpai” to turn into “Aiko-chan.” That he was given a friend.
Someone so loyal. Someone sufficiently down-to-earth to pull him down from the stars when he was getting ahead of himself in his living days. Someone that saw him and understood.
Understood that things wouldn’t always be easy, but nonetheless stayed because she cared.
Or, rather, stayed as long as she could.
“It is now 5:30 PM. Will the children playing outside please carefully make their way back...”
Pale, frail, hands rubbed together. It was only spring, but one messy-haired girl felt as though the air she breathed froze her inside out.
Oh, the things she did for that boy. She had begged time and time again for an early release from the hospital this time because she knew that if she stayed there one more night— that night in particular— Amane would have to watch the meteor shower on his own.
He didn’t ask her to join, but she knew him well. He didn’t want to be an inconvenience and couldn’t get though his thick skull that he was, in fact, quite the opposite.
She sighed. He really was stubborn, wasn’t he?
So obviously excited about the event (“It’s the Lyrid meteor shower! And it’s been 60 years since it peaked last— this year it’ll—“), yet so hesitant to share it. He always kept to himself, she knew, but he had grown even more reserved over the past few months. She pursed her lips. She couldn’t help but feel concerned...
The click and the slide of a classroom door echoed through the empty hallways. Out stepped a sullen looking Amane Yugi. His eyes, fixed on an invisible spot on the ground jumped to meet warm brown ones at the sound of a cleared throat.
It struck her how much they brightened at the sight of her, and she bit back a teasing smile. If he kept looking at her like she promised him a one way ticket to the moon, people would seriously think he had a crush on her, or something.
Funny thought.
The boy gaped. “You’re here! But... But you weren’t at school today and I thought you said you wouldn’t—”
Her laugh cut him off. Along with a light shake of her head, she intoned, “you haven’t forgotten now, have you? Let’s go, or we’ll miss the start of the show!”
She reached to grasp the end of his sleeve, and they both headed towards the exit of the desolated school building, her quietly chattering away but not expecting an answer.
He was at loss when he stared at the back of her head as his chest was flooded with warmth. She should be taking care of herself. It could get chilly later on and he definitely did not miss how her form trembled lightly. Her grasp on his sleeve wasn’t strong, did she feel okay? They could just not go and...
She stopped and looked back at him. She looked so tired, he felt guilty she pushed herself for him.
A gentle smile graced her face, “You’re not forcing me to do this, Amane. I’m here with you because I want to be.”
They continued walking, this time in total silence, but he was content. He really had to have been a saint in a past life, if he had one, to deserve someone like her in his life.
— 
She could tease him to her heart’s content for all he cared. The day Aiko disappeared, Hanako was sure he’d lose his mind. But he trusted her. Even if he fooled himself into thinking all of her pain was his fault during that time, he trusted her.
He waited for her return because he knew she would— because she always does.
So, when after a decade of unbearable absence he catches sight of familiar brown eyes, he is at peace.
Aiko was back and, despite his inner turmoil, part of him cannot help but rejoice in the sheer relief at the thought that, maybe, he has a chance to make things better.
It isn’t the first time the thought crosses his mind, but at that moment— with Aiko napping next to him as he lays down gazing at a sky of pinks and purples of her flowery boundary— he is sure that her mere presence has made him much less unfortunate, and his life infinitively more worth-while.

Hewo, I’m Kinda of Shy…
So, uh… It’s my second time trying to do anything on Tumblr so I guess you can say I’m an amateur 0.0
I started following the Toilet Bound Hanako-kun anime a while back and recently finished the manga. I couldn’t resist the urge to write for these beautiful peeps! Again. I’m shy and I’m an amateur so I’ll prolly do a ton of things wrong. But I’ll try my best! 
For TBHK/JSHK, I’m taking requests >-<
What I Do :D
- Scenarios (1 character only cuz I can’t handle more)
- Headcannons, though I’ve never attempted them before so take it with a grain of salt (up to 3 characters)
- Character x Reader (it’s what I live for so), character x reader x character (up to 3 people)
- Other things like, fluff, angst, slightly steamy stuff, etc
What I Refuse to Do
- NSFW. Come on, guys, they’re minors
- Character x Character (not very good at these)
- Too yandere things (again, not good at these)
I think that’s about it. I might’ve missed something but, eh. I’ll add them on later.

mirai | babysitting scenario
word count: 625 words
warnings: manga spoilers & female reader
Tumblr media
“It’s just a kid,” she said, “it can’t be that bad.”
What a joke.
She was supposed to keep the brat in check. The school had already had an incident earlier that month, and her own incompetence was sure to guarantee a second one, it seemed.
The school garden was nothing short of a hot mess. Gosh, she felt awful. She knew some club members were excited their orchids were finally blooming. She had seen how others spent hours before school weeding the field where herbs were grown. Earlier in the year, the club had finally been allowed a higher budget, which they used to buy brand new tools to replace the blunt pruning shears and the outdated hand trowels.
And now? Those shiny devices were covered in rust, if they hadn’t completely turned to dust already. The orchids had withered and died, reduced to a colorless scrap on the ground. There were weeds everywhere, and moss was growing where she remembered the sink and the hoses to be located at.
That’s not even the worst part, though. She had no clue where the culprit was.
She should never have agreed. Next time Akane asks— if he can bring himself to trust her again after this show of raw ineptitude, that is— she’ll simply flip him the bird and leave him to rot, not unlike how the vegetables in the garden did after the abomination that is the clock keeper of the future touched them. She really should quit being so dang nice.
“Are you serious? You want me to stay after school and play nanny so you can go suck up to Aoi’s parents?”
Akane’s eyebrow twitched, and he had to take a deep breath. “I’m not ‘sucking up’ to Ao-chan’s parents,” his expression turned dreamy, “I just can’t possibly turn down her invitation to have dinner with her family tonight!”
Goodness, what a simp.
“Why not let Number One look after her instead?” she tried to argue, but did she really expect to win against Akane?
He sighs, “all seven mysteries’ representatives have a meeting today, and if Mirai tried to move your time forward, you wouldn’t be affected.”
Ah, the perks of binding your fate to a supernatural. Good times, good times.
He was right, though, and she didn’t have the heart to say no, she concluded, so she agreed on the condition he’d give up his fifteen minutes worth of creeping on admiring Aoi for a day for her own use.
Looking back, it was so not worth it. She was only glad all the students had already left.
“Tee-hee!”
That accursed giggle! Where had it come from? Where, where, where—
“Here, stupid-head, heh!”
Indeed, there was the little devil, smiling at her (mocking her, more like) from the window in Number Seven’s Boundary.
Hell no.
If Mirai so much as blinked in the direction of his toilet stall she couldn’t be sure she could hold herself back from strangling the kid, if she lived long enough to do so, anyway.
Damage to a school mystery’s boundary. Punishable by death, according to her. Surely Mirai wouldn’t be so stupid as to violate another’s boundary?
Who is she kidding. Mirai’s brain might as well be the size of a pea.
So, she ran. Into the old school building, up two staircases, and past decayed classrooms and aged walls.
Even if she got her hands on Mirai immediately, could she expect to go unpunished?
Huffing and puffing, finally reaching the bathroom, she kicked the door open.
—and promptly turned around when she met Mirai’s smug content gaze. As she was being held by the clock keeper of the past. As they were being accompanied by the Seventh Mystery himself.
“So... care to explain?”

Can I get a headcanon of akane(the boy) with an s/o who usually acts all cold towards other people but gets all fluffy or easily flustered when they're with him?
This really should not have taken so long lmao but Akane is E V E R Y T H I N G. Kind of strayed from the “cold s/o” prompt, but I hope you like these, anon!
a. akane | cold crush headcanons
word count: 815 words
warnings: mild akane manga spoilers?
Tumblr media
Aw man it’s not like it’s their intention to appear so standoffish in the eyes of their peers! But, when that’s the impression you give, others might mirror that cold behavior right back!
Except, of course, the class rep. Nice to all, yet friends to, like, one guy.
Akane literally could not care less that one of his classmates is so unwelcoming. Are they harming another student especially Ao-chan? If they just keep to themselves, then that’s their issue, not his.
He recognizes they’re okay enough. He sees them in class and, say, maybe even among the student council members, and they get the job done.
Not bringing attention to themselves or being a distraction. If asked, he’d say they were neutral strangers.
But, as Vice President of the student council, it was just a matter of time before they both happened to stay late doing paper work at the same time, or working on the same project together.
Even if they make a highly efficient duo and work through their assignments at an admirable speed (no wonder president Minamoto pairs them up often when that’s the case!), they do have to interact to some degree.
So they talk in the student council room first, and then they’re nodding at him when they see him, and then they exchange greetings in the mornings, and—
He is totally hung up on Aoi at this point still, but he didn’t fail to notice just how much more relaxed they carried themselves when they conversed.
He couldn’t quite say they were expressive too because it’s not like their aspect changed when they were with him. It’s just the air around them that seems so much lighter!
He is very aware of how different they act with him than the rest. Smart boy.
Honestly, he’s mildly reminded of both himself and Lemon before they became friends with each other.
But one day he’s freaking out because he lost his Hanitarou again dammit and he’s all over the place and then they actually giggle at him.
And he freezes for a second because it sounded cute as heck.
But also because?? Come think of it, he’s been their classmate since the beginning of the year, yet he’s never heard them laugh, or giggle. He’s not sure he’s even seen them smile.
He’s used to their dreary glances and flat tone.
So he’s absolutely not ready to see a light grin upon their face when he turns around. Heck, he doesn’t even notice they were holding his Hanitarou the entire time—
He appreciated how they were so much more open with him when they were so closed-off with the rest. But that’s it. It’s friendly appreciation that he feels.
But he also felt a mini heart attack when he saw that smile, however small it was, and that’s absolutely terrible news for one Aoi Akane because he cannot fathom being unfaithful to Ao-chan!
Butterflies. He got actual butterflies. But he’d rather die than admit he found someone other than Ao-chan cute! What is wrong with him?
But they’re still looking at him and his lips twitch into a tight smile but he couldn’t help the movement! It was completely involuntary!
It just goes downhill from there lmao.
He is drowning in denial. His crush on Aoi has been around for so long that is it okay for him to let go? Does he like the detached council member so much that he’d move on from Aoi so soon?
Not soon, Akane. It’s literally been over a decade.
But whilst they remain as distant as ever with everyone else, they smile openly at him now (he automatically commits the expression to memory and returns it), their eyes light up at the sight of him (his do the same), they appear increasingly appealing and he is so compelled to stop time just to admire them—
Letting go of Ao-chan doesn’t bother him so much anymore, he realizes.
He loves her, of course. He’s known her forever and would lay down his life to protect her in the blink of an eye. Maybe it’s just a different type of love than what he thought, is all.
But his new crush. So pretty, so quiet. So nice to him.
Their attention makes him melt. He was hesitant to believe he liked them because what if he just likes the validation? Is that possible?
But when he hears some bastard nobodies talking crap about them for being a “pretentious jerk” because they keep to themselves he sees red and he is ready to go on a killing spree because no one is allowed to slander their fair name when they aren’t even worthy of muttering it—
Ah. He’s so close to losing it. He’d hate for them to catch him like this.
He truly did come to care for them real quick, huh?
He’s okay with that.

Hanako and Tsukasa (separately) with a restless, hyperactive s/o who can't stay still for long. They struggle to hold conversations because they can't stay focused on the other person's words, but they appreciate anyone who talks to them despite this. Whenever the lads hug/cuddle/kiss the s/o, they start fidgeting and trying to slip away after a few seconds because they constantly feel the need to move but will try to restrain these impulses if the lads seem like they need the affection.
I was nervous about writing for Tsukasa but ended up enjoying it a lot… too much, even. Anyways! Your comments when you reblog my posts might as well breathe life into me andjdn 💖 I’ll have you know that I see you, and I love you. Hope you enjoy these!
hanako & tsukasa | with a hyperactive s/o
word count: 1395 words
warnings: tsukasa none
Tumblr media
Hanako:
This lovely boy ALWAYS has his s/o’s best interest in mind. He knows they struggle sometimes, and he understands!
His s/o would be bouncing from wall to wall one minute, and he’d be right next to them, laughing with them about whatever they’re ranting one minute—
Or he’ll be floating at a distance when his s/o is feeling down.
Because, however endearing he may find them when they lose focus for a second but snap back to attention, or when they are fiddling with Hakujoudai in a moment of absent-mindedness, he sees how sullen his s/o can get when people make bad comments about them! :(
Luckily for his s/o, he knows exactly how to make their mood skyrocket in a second flat!
Perks of dating a hyperactive s/o like that is that he can get them outta the dumps real easy.
He’s… not great at heart-to-hearts.
But he is great at f u n!
Boundaries are one snap of his fingers away!
Fair in a boundary? Park? He’s got it covered.
Let’s not even go that far— they can do just about anything IN the school! Play cards with the Mokke if they can sit still long enough to finish the game, mess around in the kitchen, you name it!
So he basically just distracts them lmfao.
But the method’s worked thus far so??? No moping, no problem, right?
It’s all smiles when they’re together!
Hanako, the wholesome apparition, adjusts to his s/o’s pace perfectly.
“And then I bought my doll at—”
Oh, his s/o twitched a little. Of course he’d notice— is he talking too slow? Is that what’s giving them trouble engaging?
“—ThisOneBoundaryFullOfSexyItemsAnd—!”
Yeah, talking faster won’t help, Hanako. Bonus points for effort, though! They did not comprehend a single word lol— got distracted, oops!
He tries 😫👊
Given that his s/o is somehow able to touch him he’d be all over them.
He loves his s/o and giving them affection! When he sees them, his first instinct is to cheer and glomp them with a “Yay!”
He’d cuddle the rest of his ghostly life if he could. But his s/o just. Won’t. Sit. Still.
When they start whining that they want to be let go, he will— reluctantly.
He lets them go with a slight pout and watches as they give in to the urge to just move.
He gets it, but also he just wants some cuddles you know? :(
His s/o notices how Hanako is the actual embodiment of (。í _ ì。) and they feel bad cuz!! They also wanna show him some love! It’s just not easy!
It’s not like they can just be a statue and kiss him forever… so maybe a quick, small peck will do?
Hanako is ALL about that! He loves those!
One teeny tiny peck and after a moment of processing it he lights up and gets a blush and it’s cute af.
You know the big, close-eyed smile? That’s the one he makes.
After the first time, it’s over for his s/o.
He doesn’t mean to embarrass them, but every time he sees them in the hallways? Peck. When they’re on lunch break? Peck. Trying to focus in class? Peck.
They quickly react and to the folks that don’t see supernaturals it looks like they’re just laughing and talking to themselves.
“What’s up with them this time? Geez”
Hanako may or may not give them quite the fright because no one talks of his s/o like that.
But that’s another thing! If they can’t focus on the lesson, Hanako might just swoop in and have them play hang-man or tic-tac-toe with him instead of taking notes. Perhaps it doesn’t help them in the long run, but it certainly provides the relief they need at the time when they’re feeling jittery and restless in class!
He totally gets Tsuchigomori to tutor them later anyway.
On particularly good days, or when his s/o is just super tired, he gets to cuddle the daylights out of them!
While he adores to see them jumping around and laughing and talking of their most recent hyper fixation…
Sometimes he just wants to hold them, man.
He feels so lucky and incredibly thankful to have the bundle of joy that is his s/o.
And he doesn’t have it in him to see how his s/o is just as thankful and whipped for him for giving them a chance :”)
Tumblr media
Tsukasa:
With any other partner, the matter of concern would be whether or not they can keep up with his s/o.
But, guys, this is Tsukasa.
It’s his s/o that has to match pace with him asdfg.
Like, not just physically. Emotionally he is ALL over the place. One moment he’d be much too clingy and all to sweet—
And then? He’d be acting upon his sociopathic tendencies and about to cut open a helpless Mokke and “(N/N)-Chan! Don’t you want to know what they look like from the inside, too?”
Yeah. Kid’s a lot to handle, alright.
It’s awfully convenient, he guesses, that his s/o gets distracted to easily.
They wouldn’t be particularly fond of watching how the human skull would look like if the others limbs solidified in the orifices where eyeballs and nostrils would be otherwise.
Or something.
So if they were to run off, attempting to catch a rapidly drifting paper crane while he has his fun, then he didn’t have anything to do with it.
How opportune, though!
When his switch is flipped, on the other hand:
Indeed, all too sweet. As in, so sweet it gives you cavities. And diabetes. And like, chronic pain or anything along those lines.
May not seem like it but I love Tsukasa I swear.
He’ll squish his s/o since they’re so cute and if they squirm around, wanting to be let go, he’ll tighten his hold on them and flash them a dangerous smile because they’re wrong if they think they can rid themselves of him.
They just want to move around. It’s not that deep, rat.
But when they do manage to escape his grip then he’ll whine and whine like a child wanting his guardian’s attention.
Way to make his s/o feel guilty.
The smug bastard will love it when his s/o kisses him, but he’s more of the boa-constrictor-hugger than the kissing type, really.
He pulls at their heartstrings when he starts with the puppy dog eyes. How can they say no when he looks at them like that?
He’s too cute, it’s unbearable.
So he makes them make an effort to sit still while he plays with their fingers or hair despite how much they may struggle with it.
If someone so much as scoffs in the direction of his s/o, they’re g o n e.
Because of his work in the shadows, no one will bother his s/o (and they’ll be none the wiser the entire time!).
His love may be twisted and it might be wrong, but love is love and he’s not afraid to literally cut open anyone that dares hurt the object of his corrupt affections.
Were his s/o to feel down any day for whatever reason, he’d ask and pester them and the moment he’s given a clue on who the one responsible is, anyone that vaguely matches the given description is gone— no questions asked.
But he makes sure his s/o doesn’t know. He’d hate for them to look sad because of him!
When they look so pleasantly broken, he’s the one to pick them up and show them all sorts of wonders to take their mind off the things that made them sad.
He’s their hero, and he intends to uphold that image.
When they’re having trouble expressing themselves, Tsukasa will gladly throw random guesses of what they mean to say that often have nothing to do with the topic at hand but it’ll make them laugh so what does it matter?
When they’re getting a far away look to them in the middle of a conversation, he’ll just switch to something else— easy peasy.
They’re a bit of handful, but it takes one to know one, so he knows just what to do to engage with his s/o.
Mans is nothing if not devoted. If he loves his s/o, then they’ll get all of his attention. Always.

Scenario of hanako playing pocky with his s/o?♡
This took forever amdkekf sorry about that! This is kind of my first shot at a scenario, so I hope you enjoy it! Thank you for requesting :)
hanako | playing pocky with his s/o
word count: 588 words
warnings: gender-neutral reader
Tumblr media
Hanako had seen pocky before. Of course he had, the sweet treat had started to take off when he was alive after all.
“A game?”
Thats not to say he was as familiar with its game component, however.
His s/o hummed happily, shaking the box of candy-coated goodness slightly. “Yup! You put one of these in your mouth—” they pulled one stick out of the box— “and then someone else does too! You’re supposed to bite your end until either both parties meet in the middle, or one of them pulls away!”
A sly grin grew on his face, eyes narrowing with mischief, “then how about you and I play? First to pull away loses, hm?”
Of course, he knew his s/o would pull away first, if they accepted at all. They always got so flustered with even the smallest actions! Messing with them was just too easy, really.
So it was mildly surprising when they perked up with a “sure thing!” and made a move to get closer to the spot he was floating by.
Pocky stick still in hand, they placed it between their lips and sat on the bathroom counter, patiently waiting; tauntingly so, almost.
Yeah, any slightly audacious act of Hanako’s was enough to turn them into a puddle, but it didn’t take a genius to figure out that while the ghost may have no trouble dishing it out, he was positively inept at being on the receiving end.
The boy didn’t back down. He leaned in, much closer than was strictly necessary, and put the chocolate-covered end of the biscuit between his lips.
And he took the first bite, not ceasing eye contact for a second.
His s/o did not fail to notice how despite the cool attitude he tried to portray, his cheeks were a bit flushed. Or how the hand he used to support himself against the counter twitched momentarily. Or how he pursed his lips before the game started. Or how—
How cute. Barely getting started and he was already nervous! Wasn’t he so sure they’d give in first?
They didn’t know where this wave of sudden bravery came from, but they continued and took a bite— considerably larger than Hanako’s— that made said boy’s eyes widen a fraction and his composure slip a little.
The game was no longer just a fun dynamic between partners. Oh, no. Whomever pulled away first would have to suffer through the teasing and the taunting for eternity. On the other hand, the winner would get to keep the satisfaction of seeing the other a red mess, bowing before them in shame! Neither party could lose! Alas, only one winner could be!
And they were so close now. A mere breath away. They weren’t even looking at the other anymore, just at the pocky stick that served as the only barrier separating their lips. It would be so easy to back down now and treat their burning faces, or one could go on and—
“Hanako-kun! Help! It’s Aoi-Chan! She just, vanished!” A distressed call from one Yashiro Nene barging into the girl’s restroom. A saving bell or an unwelcome interruption?
Hanako’s s/o flinched and nearly hit their head against the mirror while the boy himself launched himself away from them, more or less in the direction of the toilet stalls.
The first-year girl was nearly in tears as she explained the dilemma in one breath.
Neither would bring it up quite yet, but both were thinking the same thing: Who pulled away first?
