An unexpected win for the HnK fandom!

For those of you who don’t know, Houseki no Kuni is a manga/anime about sentient gemstones that fight against moon people who want to break them apart and use them as jewelry. Think Steven Universe if it was 73x more fucked up.

Im going to show y’all a list of all of the characters, their gemstones, and where they rank on the mohs hardness scale:

Makoto: Verdelite, Hardness of 7

Kyoko: Purple Spinel, Hardness of 8

Byakuya: Blue Alexandrite, Harness of 8.5

Aoi: Aquamarine, Hardness of 8

Yuta: Blue Zircon, Hardness of 7.5

Yasuhiro: Citrine, Hardness of 7

Hiroko: Heliodor, Hardness of 7.5

Toko: Grey Garnet, Hardness of 6.5

Sayaka: Larimar, Hardness of 5

Ayaka: Pink Kunzite, Hardness of 6.5

Junko: Sapphire, Hardness of 9

Mukuro: Sapphire, Hardness of 9

Leon: Blue Topaz, Hardness of 8

Chihiro: Variscite, Hardness of 4

Taichi: Prehnite, Hardness of 6

Mondo: Purple Diamond, Hardness of 10

Daiya: Purple Padparadscha, Hardness of 9.5

Takemichi: Golden Beryl, Hardness of 8

Kiyotaka: Ruby, Hardness of 9

Takaaki: Almondine, Hardness of 8.5

Celestia: Cinnabar, Hardness of 2

Sakura: White Diamond, Hardness of 10

Kenshiro: Antarcticite, Hardness of 3

The story begins with Makoto forming, and being found by Mondo. Mondo takes him back home, and allows Hiroko and Kyoko to fix him up. Once Makoto is all dressed and ready, Mondo becomes responsible for teaching him about everything, including how to fight.

Makoto goes on his first patrol with Mondo, and his partner Takemichi. A sunspot appears, and Mondo makes quick work of it. However, they begin to shoot arrows tipped with purple gemstones.

Mondo and Takemichi immediately recognize these gems as Purple Padparadscha, also known as Daiya. Mondo falls into a rage, and eventually gets back all of Daiya’s pieces. However, he gets broken in several places as a result.

Kyoko and Hiroko, the doctors, appear, and begin piecing the two of them back together. Makoto stays in the infirmary out of worry. Kiyotaka enters almost immediately, and he begins talking with Makoto, sharing stories about Mondo.

Daiya and Mondo are put back together, and emotional scenes ensue. However, it’s now time for winter, and Makoto’s first hibernation.

Makoto doesn’t seem to be all that tired, though, and asks Kongo if he can stay up. By doing this, he meets Kenshiro, a kind gem who’s in charge of the Winter Watch.

The two of them bond over the course of winter, and Kenshiro teaches Makoto things about fighting that Makoto couldn’t have gotten anywhere else. He realizes quickly that Kenshiro was Sakura’s mentor, as Sakura formed during winter as well.

They have fun together, but Makoto slips, and ends up losing his arms to the ice floes. Desperate to help, Kenshiro brings him to a puddle of golden alloy. As the alloy fights with Makoto’s inclusions, a rare winter sunspot appears.

Kenshiro fends them off despite his fragile nature. During this, the gold alloy forms into a solid metal box around Makoto, trapping him inside. Kenshiro comes out on top in his battle, although he sustains many serious breaks. He begins trying to free Makoto from the gold box.

Suddenly, something strikes Kenshiro from behind, breaking him completely. Makoto is helpless as he watches the Lunarians take him away. At the very last moment, the alloy begins to agree with Makoto, and take form as his arms, releasing him from the box.

Makoto chases after the retreating Lunarians in hopes of rescuing Kenshiro, but they’re too far up in the sky. Despite his greatest efforts, Kenshiro is taken. Makoto has to take care of the rest of the Winter Watch by himself, and meets the others when they wake up consumed with shame and guilt.

The others want to know about Makoto’s new golden arms, but Makoto can’t bring himself to recount the events of winter to them. They continue to bother Makoto about it, until Mondo and Kiyotaka intercept and take him somewhere private.

There’s going to be more, but that’s all I have worked out for now.

Tadaa!

doll

[ kunikuzushi!scaramouche x okami!reader ]

summary: in a desperate hope that yae could still give ei's puppet a chance to live, she turns to you, an ancient godlike being born with the physique of a wolf and a former friend that she hasn't seen since makoto's death. yet, as she persuades you, she starts to realize that maybe this was her biggest mistake yet.

notes: nah y/n's just being a silly wolf, they're not gonna do anything bad to kuni 🥺 not yet ehe just kidding she's just a lil salty i based y/n's form from okami, a mythological wolf deity in japan but im not japanese so i may be culturally incorrect im so sorry ackskf | m.list

words: 1131 | warnings: a little mean and rude reader but only a lil ackskf

"it's a kid."

"as you can obviously see."

you sent a sharp side eye towards the smug fox, your arms crossed in an attitude that only you are privileged to make known to the ever magnificent yae miko. if it was anyone else, she would have said a word or two about their respect towards her.

but this is you.

you who used to signify great strength among your kind—you still do, but not as much when you were still active in the battlefield—and once stood beside the ever wise makoto, the first archon of inazuma.

you, veteran warrior of the archon war who survived the great calamity five hundred years ago, now being forced into some… babysitting nonsense.

"it's a fucking kid."

"watch your mouth, dear. after all, he is a kid," she winked. "and what do they say about kids? they are easily influenced by the people they are surrounded with, so if i were you i would be very careful if i don't want him spewing curses here and there."

"what is a kid, he, doing here?"

your eyes stared down at the shivering boy on the ground, meeting his terrified purple eyes that resembled someone you once knew. he's the spitting image of them, long luscious purple hair and amethyst eyes that shined brighter than any other vajrada stones you've seen—you're just being a little biased, you secretly love those cor lapis you only seen merchants bring through the port but you don't exactly say they out loud where anyone can hear you.

"that's a long story."

"well then, get talking."

"my, my, what got you so sour today?" yae's alluring giggles infuriated you more than the sight of this boy in front of you.

"you are well aware of why i prohibited any trespasses in my abode, guuji yae," your tone nearly turns to a growl at your ex-acquaintance's new title—you can almost see the way she backs away but she surely regained her composure as quick as lightning, but her flattened ears says otherwise—"and yet here you are, shamelessly asking me for a favor after i made it clear that my ties with the shogun and her connections are severed with my own claws."

"yes, i am aware," she exasperatedly sighs, "but this is a pressing matter that i can only turn to you for help."

"by dumping the child of the shogun on me?"

"y/n!" yae frowned at your tone, one of her hands coming to rest upon the boy's trembling shoulder. "if you could please take the time to understand where i am coming from, it would be greatly appreciated. listen to me, just this time."

the two of you stared at each other in silence, both of you radiating an intimidating aura of authority that only some of the most prominent species in inazuma has. your eyes glowered menacingly, a growl resounding from the back of your throat that sent yae miko into tremors of fear. you, who had stood next to the defenders of inazuma. yae miko barely stands a chance against you.

"please," she faltered against your everlasting gaze. "at least give the boy a chance."

your eyes brought its gaze to the trembling boy. his head is lowered to the ground, an evident effect of your show of strength. fear is literally plastered in the way he's trembling, elbows shaking despite having both of his hands keeping him up from falling limp on the ground. tears were dripping from his pale cheeks, soft whimpers of his cries being desperately muffled by biting into the pulp of his lower lip. it's no doubt that they're swollen by now—in fact, if he was human, you could probably smell the smallest hint of metallic blood from just a tiny crack on the skin of his lips.

pathetic, you scoffed, this? is supposed to hold the gnosis of a god? perhaps ei has forgotten the difference between a celestial being and a mere puppet.

"why is the shogun rejecting her own creation?"

the boy let out a whimper louder than the rest.

sensitive, too emotional.

"she did not reject him," yae crossed her arms at the accusation, bravely sending you a dirty look, "i would love to explain everything to you in detail, just not in his presence."

"oh?"

she grimaces at the victorious smirk on your face.

"why not let him listen? after all," you walk towards the boy, crouching right in front of him. a hand raises to tilt his chin up, eyes glowing in amusement at his confused look, "does he not deserve an explanation as to why his own creator—or better yet, his mother—decided to entrust him in the hands of someone like me?"

you hold his face in your hands, thumbs caressing the apple of his cheeks and cooing at the way they turn pink.

the way humans do.

"is ei," your voice lowers to a sultry tone, a hypnotic sound that turns the boy into a puddle of something akin to reverence, doe eyes staring back at yours, "turning her eyes away from a mistake she made on her own, like the blind coward she is?"

"that's enough," yae hissed, snapping the boy out of his trance and he cowers away from your touch, "ei is entrusting him to you because she knows you won't do anything that will harm him. he's still just a boy."

both yae and the boy jumped when you suddenly laughed. it wasn't anything gleeful or genuine. it was cold, empty, something that tells yae that she should leave before you bare your fangs at her.

"ei still trusts me? how amusing!" your grin tells her another story, "well then, i shall honor such opportunity!"

"what?" yae stares at you dumbfounded for the nth time today.

"you're… taking him in?" she faltered in disbelief. she was almost sure you'd shoo them away, spouting how insolent she is to believe that you would even do such a favor, that you would not bore such a responsibility on behalf of the shogun. somewhere at the back of yae's mind, she's screaming at herself to pull the boy away from you before everything takes a turn for the worst.

"why not?"

gently, with cold hands that once held warmth years ago, you held his face closer, brushing the stray strands of purple out of his visage and whispering into his ears.

"what's your name, little one?"

"kuni… kunikuzushi," he stammered.

"such an entitled name you have, i like it. doesn't suit a face like yours, but we'll see," the grin on your face widened, leaning closer to his ears, "i would love to take you in, doll."

the sight of you, towering above ei's prototype, sends an unknown fear into yae's mind.

kuni’s patch notes — ✧ !

gamer! and streamer!kuni’s roundabout way of showin’ affection for his #1

kunikuzushi was not someone who was well versed with tenderness, especially words and phrases revolving around affection. growing up, his auntie makoto was so very open about expressing her insurmountable amount of love for him. his own mother, ei, struggled with this. but she herself attempted showing her love in more subtle ways, ways that kunikuzushi himself has taken on without really realizing it.

after movin’ in with you to become a power couple on twitch.tv, these little gestures of love became much more apparent.

— see kuni’s patch list below! ⤵️

──★ ˙patch 1.1 // cuts fruit for you 🔪🥭 - LIVE!

──★ ˙ patch 1.3 // “yes, i’m proud of you but don’t make me fuckin’ say it—” -tbd

──★ ˙ patch 1.4 // “hah? it’s storming and you’re too nervous to drive? chat, ill brb.” -tbd

──★ ˙ patch 1.5 // plenty of leftovers after a party? sick, dinner for two for a week. -tbd

Going on a date.

Boss scara X bodyguard female reader

Fluff(Smut if you count kuni being touchy and horni)

Thank you for 130 followers! :)

Scara fic list. Part 1 of boss scara

1.21k words.

"But besides that ill keep this letter short for you Kuzushi', Ive heard word from Miko while i resided in tenshukaku about the wonderful things you've been doing for the Gakaden company, I truly am proud of you, and I hope you can continue to bring glory to our bloodline. Your aunt Makoto would be proud of you as well-"

The letter continued but Kuni couldn't be bothered to read the rest. Closing the lavender smelling letter within its envelope and resting his head against the window of the car. Could it be his coldness? He thought. Something about the letter just felt too good to be true. His mother never was that kind nor even asked about his personal life so why now? It felt as if his heart began to sink in his chest. But that feeling resided once he was tuned out his emotional daze by your smooth voice. "My lord- I mean kuni, we've arrived at Komore teahouse." You turned your head to look at him in the rearview mirror as he sighed and adjusted his tie. "Alright..Just pull over here."

Your routine remained the same. Always getting out of the car before your lord and doing a perimeter check of your surroundings. Dates are rare with scara even though you two practically spend every second together, its morally because he has to maintain the shoguns army from the shadows along with the gakaden company. Yet his creator is 'so busy dealing with inazuma.' So you wore a Kimono in honor of your Lords culture since this was so rare. And god did he love it. Scara would undress you with his eyes when he'd watch you walk around and open the door for him to get out the car. Looking you up and down while opening it. "Shit you look good..Say..How about we skip this and go back to the penthouse?" He said while whispering into your ear and trailing his hands along your waist. "N-No Kuni- you spent alot of money on our date! you're just going to have to wait master." And there he goes getting riled up, He loved when you talked back, either to punish you for it or just get turned on even more. "Oh yeah? What if master doesnt want to wait? Your gonna help me out like a good girl?" From that point your just flat out BLUSHING. You want to walk away out of embarrassment but try to stay formal as possible because of your job being his bodyguard. Meanwhile kuni is enjoying every second of teasing you. Even daydreaming about taking off ever piece of clothing your wearing and making you scream out his name. From the way your delicate hips swayed with the bow as you opened the door to the teahouse, To the badass way you'd sheath your signature weapon when you sensed danger just for him.

He walked towards you already fangirling over the luxurious spot he chose out himself for you to dine at with a beautiful balcony view of Inazuma's sunset. "This is AMAZING KUNI! We can walk out and feel the nice breeze and OOO. WE CAN TAKE SELFIES TOGETHER!!" You paced around the room like a child in a candy store while kuni gave a light smile at your childish reaction as he settled the payments again for your day out. "Ahem. Excuse me, Lord Scaramouche?" kuni reluctantly shifted his attention towards the servant. "Yeah? What do you want?" "I- sorry, I was just asking. Is this on official business with My Lord Kamisato? If so ill inform him right away and-" kuni cut him off and looked at the young servant with a purple glow in his eyes. "Hah. You think id waste this much time and mora on that Yashiro rascal? The audacity to even ask me that." the servant began to stutter "My apologies lord scaramouche ill-" "Go make yourself useful and fetch some tea for me. Get out of my sight."

Kuni took off his jacket and sat across you. Resting against the back of the chair with his hands in his pocket and observing how you looked out towards the sunset. "Dont think anyone's gonna try to attack me through 'the sun' Y/n." You looked at him and sighed. "Kuni...He's just doing his job, Why do you have to pick fights with everyone when we go out." "Hah. Picking fights? You make it sound like im a child, pet. I wasn't the one just fawning over a fancy room now was i? Even though you we're kinda cute doing it." he smirked as you blushed at his words. Resting your hands on your thighs over the suggestive nickname he had for you.

Throughout the date it would mostly be you initiating the conversations, Kuni didnt mind silence since he wasnt a really 'talkative person' ever since his mom left but with you it was so much different. Even though it looked like he didnt care, He was interested in anything you talked about even if it was something as mundane like your daily schedule or stories about your past experiences in natlan. Sometimes he'd even say things that would contradict what you'd say or believe in just to get a reaction out of you that would warm his cold little heart.

After finishing your meal, the both of you sat at the balcony watching the moon rise into the sky. "This is the part where you usually say 'finaLly aNOther boRing day drawing to a close." You'd mumble to him and laugh. But he'd have a completely different reaction. Raising his eyebrows then turning to look at the stars again. "Actually. I wish this day wasnt over yet. Wouldnt mind staying here with you if it meant it wouldn't." You give a shocked reaction at his shift in tone. Looking down to see his smooth fingers intertwined with yours. When you looked back up towards him, Kuni smashed his lips against yours. Trailing his hands under your kimono while hearing you moan out his name as you tried to catch your breath. "Hah..Kuni-mm Love you~" he parted the kiss, shifting his attention towards you neck as you leaned back in on the bench. "Say that louder for me baby." He said while biting and sucking on your neck. "Kuni~ I love you~ Mmm id do anything for you~" You tugged on his tie, Drawing his perked body closer to yours. "There's my good girl." He pulled away, leaving a hickey on your neck then Cupping your face in the palm of his hand to see your already wrecked expression while the dim light of the moon rested against the both of you.

As the night went on you sank into his embrace. Letting the steady beat in his chest and the smell of his cologne put you in a deep feeling of comfort. "Hey..Y/n.. i Love you. I know im..Not a saint but.. Im hard on everyone including myself, that's just how I am and I wouldnt ever hurt you-" Kuni then looked down to see you fast asleep on his shoulder. Ugh didnt the same thing happened before when you two visited the abyss? The pained feeling in his chest in his chest began to happen again making him give a confused look. He wasnt reading his moms letter nor did he think about her in the moment. He use to despise these emotions, Deeming them as a sign of weakness and the reason why his mom abandoned him..but at the same time she gifted him with a dynasty, The gakaden company. Along with meeting you. These feelings of his was like a double-edged sword. But he didnt care anymore or want to question it. He just wanted you, and this wonderful night to never end.

The Kazama & Mishima’s naming traditions and the Next Gens of Kazama’s children!

Alright so I've been cooking this for a while since they dropped Jun's parents name on T8. Bear in mind, I'm in no way fluent in Japanese nor I'm a native, but I have google on my side to educate me better about Japanese naming systems and the kanji they used for naming the child (jinmeiyo and joyo).

I just want to named XiaoJin’s future babies so bad, kay?! Lol. Even though I know Jin is opposed to any plan of continuing the lineage (which is heartbreaking 😭💔) but the XiaoJin's shipper in me cannot be extinguished!! 🔥🔥🔥 I still want to named them! Lol.

Anyway! Feel free to correct me with your information! I'm open to any kind of knowledge 💖

Psst! If you don't want to read these longass founds and explanation, you can jump right away to the bottom of this post, there’s a pic that summarise these texts, lol.

Alrightt! Without further ado, let's deep dive into Kazama/Mishima lore!!

================================================

So...

Tekken 8 has finally dropped some lore about Kazama family, and it's about Jun to be exact. There, we can get a glimpse of Jun's parent name:

Soon after, a Japanese KazuJun's fan dropped this tweet :

Assuming a native Japanese able to decipher those characters correctly, now we finally have Jun's parents name kanji:

純一 the father, and 恵 the mother.

As we all know, kanji has several way of reading. Cited from pon-navi, there are two typical ways of reading kanji, kun-yomi and on-yomi. In addition, there is a reading system called "jinmei kun" which is used only for names.

"Soo?? What's their name?! How do we know the correct reading?!"

Here's the thing!!

Tekken has giving us hints that Mishima family has a tradition to give their children with their kanji name, following a common practice in Japan. Let's take a look at their kanji.

仁八, Jinpachi

平八, Heihachi & 一美, Kazumi

一八, Kazuya

Notice the similarities? You’re right! The Mishima child inherited their parents' kanji! The sons inherit '八' kanji, with Heihachi inherited '八' from Jinpachi and Kazuya inherited both kanji from Heihachi (八) and Kazumi (一).

As it is a common practice, the same can be said with the Kazama family! Although in their case, they might not be inheriting the kanji but instead with the reading of the said character. Or maybe phonetically similar would be correct here.

For example, this is Jun's kanji: 準

This character '準' can be read several ways, some of them are : Jun, shun, setsu, taira, toshi, narau, nori, hitoshi.

And one of her father kanji is: 純

'純' can be read as : kito, Jun, atsu, atsushi, aya, itaru, ito, kiyoshi, sunao, sumi, tsuna, to, makoto, yoshi.

Have you noticed it? That's right! '純' and '準' can be both read as Jun! It means that Jun's kanji has the same reading as her father's kanji, although they have different kanji characters.

From here, we can assume that Jun's father can be called Jun____ as well.

As for the other kanji, '一' can be read as: hito, hitotsu, hajime, ichi, itsu, i, osamu, kuni, susumu, tada, chi, nobu, hajimu, hajime, hi, hiji, hide, hitoshi, makoto, masashi, moto, ka, kazu, kata, atsu.

Looking from the lists, together his name could be read most plausibly as : Junichi, Junitsu, or Juni. Imo, Junichi sounds the best, so yeah, I completely agree with the KazuJun's fan.

Now we all know that Kazama has similar sounding name with different kanji.

On the other hand, the mother has '恵' that can be read as: megumu, megumi, kei, e, aya, sato, satoshi, shige, toshi, yasu, yoshi.

While it could be anything, I think it's either Megumi or Megumu. Why? Because I found out that '恵' has the same reading as one of Jin's kanji reading! lol. Let's take a look at Jin's kanji!

This is Jin's kanji: 仁

It can be read as: Jin, ni, nin, kimi, kimu, sato, sane, shinobu, tadashi, to, toyo, nobu, nori, hisashi, hito, hitoshi, hiroshi, masa, masashi, mi, megumi, megumu, yasushi, yoshi.

Do you find it? Both '恵' and '仁' can be read as Megumi/Megumu! lol.

One of the speculation is that Jun named her son Jin as a sign of respect to her father in law, Jinpachi (仁八). Even though Jin is a Mishima by blood, he doesn't inherit the '八' character as he was raised in Kazama family. So he inherited just the '仁' character. Besides, it also sounds almost the same. Jun.. Jin.. It's phonetically similar, right? And if Jin were born a girl, I bet he would be called Megumi/Megumu instead just like his grandmother, lol.

Thus, we can safely conclude that the Mishima has the habit to inherit their kanji characters while the Kazama inherit the reading of their kanji's name.

================================================

AND NOW! HERE COMES THE MAIN DISH!!!! 💖💖💖

What about the future Kazama kids?! Let’s move on to that and do the real cooking here for the XiaoJin's babies name! :D

We have seen Jin's kanji, but what about Xiayou?? Xiaoyu is Chinese by birth, and her hanzi (Chinese characters) are 凌曉雨 and リン・シャオユウ is how it's written in Japanese katakana.

凌, Líng: surpass / リン (Rin)

曉, Xiao: dawn / シャオ (Shao)

雨, Yu: rain / ユウ (Yu)

Now, I'd like to think that they would combine or use either their character or its reading for their baby! Also! They might use some of Jin's family name's characters :D

Here are some of my ideas for the babies name :

For boy:

晨一, Shinichi, a portmanteau of Jin and Xiaoyu's nickname and kanji inherited from Junichi/Kazuya.

Explanation: the first kanji '晨' means Dawn, which has the same meaning as Xiaoyu hanzi '曉'. The kanji reading is also the combination of Xiaoyu's nickname and Jin. Shao+Jin=Shin. It also sounds similar. Jin, Shin, it's rhyming, right? Just like Jun and Jin!

For the second kanji '一' I'd like to think the story behind it was that Xiaoyu wanted to preserve Kazama/Mishima naming practice but Jin was reluctant to do it. In the end, they decided to take the kanji '一' which was present in both Kazama and Mishima, that's in Junichi (純一) and Kazuya (一八).

For girl :

凌, Shino, a portmanteau of Xiaoyu's nickname and Jin, same character as Xiao’s hanzi that could also be the feminine ver. of Shin.

Explanation: it’s rather simple, I use the same character in Xiaoyu’s hanzi that has different reading while also the combination of Jin and Xiaoyu’s name. In Chinese ‘凌’ read as Ling but in Japanese, ‘凌’ has several reading. One of them is Shino. Shino could be the sister or the twin sister of Shinichi, in case XiaoJin have two child or twins in the future :)

琳, Rin, a kanji that has the same reading as Xiaoyu’s name and phonetically similar with Jin.

Explanation: I think this one is easy to understand! Rin and Jin, phonetically similar like what Kazama would've named their children. It’s also Xiaoyu’s surname in Japanese. The kanji ‘琳’ itself means ‘beautiful jewel’ and in Chinese the hanzi means 'beautiful jade’, and it reminds them of the greens in Yakushima forest, Jin's home.

================================================

Alright, now that I’ve spilled out all of the stuff inside my chest and calmed down, I’ll give you a simple name chart for those who don’t want to read wall of texts, lol. Hope this helps!

I guess that’s all for now, lol. I’ll add my thoughts if I had any later on. Thank you for coming to my TED talk! 😂🙏

wanderer as nahida's right-hand is perfect. they both have a history of abandonment, neglect, and exploitation, plus for similar reasons.

nahida was imprisoned in the sanctuary of surasthana for centuries, left to wither as a failed god her people chased the shadow of a 'better' ideal: greater lord rukkhadevata.

wanderer was abandoned by his mother in shakkei pavilion because he was the failed prototype for her ideal ruler of eternity: a puppet who could execute the lightning's will without regret, whom she intended to create after having makoto die in her arms.

the people involved in wanderer and nahida's pasts - both, in a sense, have convinced themselves that their actions were for the greater good. the sages don't even see nahida is a god, much less a human - to them, all she is is the reminder of what sumeru once had and never could again.

raiden ei abandoned kunikuzushi because she saw him cry, and, knowing he could never be the shogun she needed, left him to his own devices. it's been stated in canon that ei believed she was setting kunikuzushi free. and maybe she was, during those dark days after inazuma's first archon died. but, perhaps, what drove kunikuzushi to assign her actions as 'abandonment' was the fact that he was, in a sense, a lesser god. that he was created for reasons he didn't know. the first thing kunikuzushi did upon creation was cry - in the same way that a baby's first instinct is to cry, because their first impulse is to seek help. from this perspective, the thing kunikuzushi needed the most was guidance and acceptance from his creator (because he knew he was created by someone), while the thing ei thought he needed the most was solitude. miscommunication in the delivery room, am i right.

raiden ei's motives were not the same as the sages - you could argue that she really did believe she was doing it for kuni's benefit. i think she did. but what stands is that both these acts feature a theme of abandonment and neglect. they were carried out by people in the aftermath of grief, executed as neglect upon the people they were done to. and these acts catalyzed nahida and wanderer's development into the characters they are now.

they are not the same as the other archons.

venti's arc is focused around mending the wounds of the past, though it could be implied that he is re-assessing what "freedom" means for his nation. zhongli stepped back as yanwang dijun to allow liyue to move forward on its own while he could re-integrate as one of their common folk. ei is brought forward to re-evaluate her decisions as inazuma's absentee god.

good or bad, they all have experience with being a god.

nahida doesn't. she was intentionally kept from fulfilling her duties as archon for hundreds of years. anything she learns now, once free, is the first time she's learning it as kusanali.

wanderer can't. he tried. he took the electro gnosis and tried to transplant it into his own body - but, at the moment as we know it, gods technically can't be artificially created. the closest dottore could get was a mimicry.

so you have this unique circumstance, where nahida and wanderer both have no idea of what being a god really entails. but they don't need to know what being a god is like, do they? they just need to know how to be an archon: how to protect, how to decide, how to execute.

nahida is very forgiving. in my opinion, she's too forgiving (only because i hate the sages and would've called cps on them if i could). she sees the best in humanity. she works to engage with her people. she tries to listen to their hopes and dreams while moving towards a collective vision for the nation.

wanderer is cynical. he's been betrayed three times, in his words, and been taken advantage of far more than thrice. wanderer has seen the worst of humanity, and he continues to carry this critical eye. he's not afraid to do what nahida can't do (go undercover + beat up people) and he's not afraid to confront people when their motives stray towards the worse.

wanderer can demonstrate the things that define the worst of humans, while nahida can show wanderer the things that make humanity worth preserving. wanderer can execute orders with precision and make decisions on the fly (ha), but nahida is here to level his head and point out clues, motives, or implications that perhaps were not considered before.

and, isn't it a fitting conclusion to the sumeru archon quests? two former puppets, both alike in dignity, in sumeru where we lay our scene. together, they can reconcile the pains of their past - and together, they can build a better, kinder future together...the kind that both must have, at their worst, dreamed of living.

alternate dimension au where everything is still kind of the same but with more people alive—

zhongli enjoying the human life with guizhong, he visits the yakshas in his spare time and they drink tea together

chongyun mastering his yang energy after training with the yakshas, who are kind of like family to shenhe's exorcist clan

venti who retains a godly form of a whisp because his friend never died and instead, he looks after the descendants with much favoritism

kaeya who frequents the winery for dinners. master crepus was terribly injured and diluc had to take over the business (not after mass murdering the fatui in revenge).

ei who doesn't give kunikuzushi the seat of power, but still cares for him enough to not push him away. her sister, makoto, encouraged her to open up her heart to him so that he may follow suit

ayato, ayaka, thoma, and the kamisato parents just bonding over a weird hotpot game (ayato still becomes the respected commissioner at an early age under the loving guidance of his family)

gorou and kokomi focusing on improving watatsumis daily life after the brief conflict with narukami island, the trade and tourism has never been better

nahida who maintains her original godly status. she often meets up with the scarlet king, her most reliable friend.

kuni visits his auntie nahida from time to time bc i said so

Searching for you!

⤷ scaramouche x fem!reader

Season 1, Episode 10 ─ mans is so whipped it's ridiculous

red for kazuha, blue for misako, purple for scaramouche

after your little cat cafe date, scaramouche drived the both of you to the airport, though you were pretty early, kazuha and misako were already there, naturally scaramouche and kazuha start conversing.

"Is it alright if i go with kazuha? we're getting drinks from the vending machine."

"Of course, you don't really need to ask me."

"I just didn't wanna leave you here when you don't really know anyone, are you sure?"

"yes, don't worry i'll be fine."

and as both men leave you're left alone with someone you've never spoken to, but frankly you didn't really notice, even if it was just the bare minimum it was still sinking in that kuni was that thoughtful, asking for permission before leaving cause he knows you're not that close with misako.

"I don't know what you did but you have scaramouche wrapped around you finger so tight."

"I have no idea what I did either, I was blackout drunk."

"I've known scara for my whole life and i've never seen him so... caring?"

"Realy? It all seems uh, normal? Like he's done this before."

"He has definitely not, aunt yae would tease the shit out of him if he did."

"Aunt??? Yae???"

"Ah, I forgot you didn't know, I'm the daughter of raiden makoto, scara's aunt?"

"Oh.."

"Name, i got you a drink."

"What took you so long?"

"Did we? Sorry my love, I hope it wasn't awkward or anything."

"Not really, Misa had an amazing conversation starter."

just like that, scaramouche stared at the navy blue haired woman intensely, she only shrugged it off, finally the others arrived and you were finally off to Liyue.

your name etched on my skin as I wait for all eternity (KazuScara + Tomo)

PART 1/3

Soulmate AU (angst with HE)

Summary: where your soulmate's name appears on your skin, but what if your soulmate doesn't have your name engraved on his skin?

Note: Kazuha's friend is called Tomo as always

“Kaedehara Kazuha…”

“Hm?” Ei hummed in surprise as her normally shy and quiet child murmured something. She stopped brushing his hair when she noticed Kunikuzushi tenderly caressing something on his chest.

“Mother…” Kunikuzushi whispered softly, turning around to look up at Ei, his eyes filled with innocence and curiosity as his fingertips gently glided over the name imprinted on his chest.

"What is it?" Ei responded, gently brushing the boy's bangs away from his eyes.

“Kazuha… Kazuha—”

“Kazuha?” Ei asked, puzzled.

She then moved her gaze to the area where her son appears to be touching something, gently gasping as she noticed the newly engraved name blazing brilliantly on her child's chest.

There on her child’s chest, small letters were engraved.

The name Kaedehara Kazuha, burning brightly in a shade of red.

“Oh, Kuni…” Ei sighed, taking Kunikuzushi into her embrace and gently patted his hair in a comforting manner.

“Mother, why are there letters on my chest?” Kunikuzushi asked politely, allowing himself to be embraced. Ei looked down at his son, who was probing the letters on his chest with innocent curiosity.

“It’s the name of your soulmate, my child.”

From the comfort of her mother's arms, Kunikuzushi glanced up slightly and cocked his head to the side, looking obviously troubled.

“Mother, are puppets even allowed to have soulmates?”

There was complete silence, and all they could hear was the sound of birds chirping outside.

“Of course— of course…” Ei responded with a tinge of doubt after some time. She has never encountered anything like this before, and she never even considered that one of her creations might have a soul mate.

Makoto, her twin, and the person she considered to be her soulmate, passed away. It would be an understatement to say that it caused so much pain. She felt that she also died and that her soul had been shattered into bits, but no one was there to help her pick the pieces back up again.

Grieving was difficult but coming to terms with the fact that she would spend the rest of her life without her soulmate was even more difficult and frustrating for her.

Therefore, she created a puppet. Something that will be with her for all of eternity as she slowly tries to raise herself back up.

Kunikuzushi smiled softly as he gently caressed his skin with his fingertips. A companion for life, doesn’t that sound very lovely?

When he says the name Kazuha, he gets butterflies in his stomach and feels like bursting with excitement. The name just felt so appropriate in his tongue.

“Mother…”

Ei felt both anxiety and relief when she watched his child smile at her with bright eyes.

“I think I feel happy… is that… is that how humans call it?” Kunikuzushi asked with some uncertainty, entirely oblivious to the conflicting emotions that his mother was experiencing.

“Yes… yes, it is.”

The thunderous throbbing in Ei's chest did not even slightly subside as she clutched the boy even tighter. She wants to spare her child from going through what she did in terms of pain, but how can she even have the heart to stop him from going after his soulmate?

Kunikuzushi is a child who is full of goodwill and wonder at the world around him. Her son has a restrained personality, but once he becomes interested in anything, he is like a moth drawn to a flame; he can't help but pursue it.

Ei took a deep breath, observing how determined her son appears to meet and see his soulmate. She realizes she can't keep him forever, especially because his child has a soulmate somewhere in this world. It is only a matter of time before they cross paths.

She wishes, however, that her son will have the happy ending that she desired for herself, rather than the bittersweet one that she has received.

“Well then Kuni, would you like to come with me?”

“It’s the shogun!”

They all bowed down to Ei as soon as they saw her, and at the same time, they were all wondering who was the boy that was clutching their archon's hand. But once they noticed the similarity, they immediately understood everything.

"To what ways may we assist the great and almighty shogun?"

Ei acknowledged their presence with a hum and a nod, then gestured for all of them to raise their heads.

“I suppose a long conversation will be needed.”

They all moved quickly to comply with their archon's requests, and Kunikuzushi was more than happy to follow them and listen to their conversation about a person named "Kaedehara Kazuha."

He felt anxious, pleased, worried, and excited all at the same time. He was created to be together with his creator for all eternity, but fate seems to have other plans for him.

Every being has their own soulmate, and him not having one before is a slap in the face that reminds him that he is simply a puppet.

Thus, when he felt something burning in his chest, he was scared because he thought that he was experiencing some kind of malfunction.

And when he found out from his mother that he had finally earned a soulmate, he felt a sense of relief.

"Kazuha— Kazuha— Kazuha—" Kunikuzushi muttered under his breath as he tightened his grip on his mother's hand, a little smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as he thought about how pleasant and comforting the name sounded.

But, just as fate unexpectedly decided to grant him a soulmate, it appears that fate has something more in store for him.

“We are sorry to inform you that we are not familiar with anyone by the name of Kaedehara Kazuha, nor do we have any record of him in our family tree.”

"How is that even possible? Or has a member of your clan left Inazuma?"

In response, they shook their heads. “Everyone carrying the name Kaedehara is gathered here as we speak, our almighty shogun. There is no one with the name Kazuha, not even our children or ancestors.”

“Please accept our apologies, almighty shogun.” They all bowed down before Ei in an act of shame, but Ei didn't seem to notice or care. The fact that Kunikuzushi's palm had become ice-cold and stiff was the thing that concerned her the most.

Thump — thump.

Why—? Why?

Kunikuzushi felt as if his non-existent heart had plunged to the lowest ground in the abyss, his heart aching in desperation.

He was excited before, so why is it different now?

Mother— mother— what is this feeling? I can’t move… everything feels so heavy.

It didn’t take long for Ei to notice that her son was feeling sadness by the way his head drooped low and his hand trembling in her hold.

Her heart broke as she witnessed her child's mental breakdown. Her worst nightmare seems to be coming true.

"Notify me if you come across somebody using that name," With those final words, she turned around and carefully led her child out of the house, wrapping an arm around his shaking form while raising her other hand to block everyone else from approaching any closer.

Ei accompanied her child with patience. Each step Kunikuzushi takes feels extremely challenging, as if his body were too heavy to even comply with his requests.

His cheeks feel a light breeze that seems to be providing some sort of solace.

“Mother, what is happening to m—”

Before he could even complete his sentence, Ei had already wrapped her arms around him in a tight embrace. His body immediately began to convulse into sobs that he had no idea his body was even capable of doing so. Large teardrops streamed down his cheeks, leaving stains on his clothing while Ei softly soothed the youngster while caressing his hair.

Ei felt like crying as she listened to the boy whimper gently as he gasped for air and gave out noises of misery that broke her heart. It appeared as though she was seeing herself from her child when her twin perished.

“It’s alright, my Kuni.”

Kunikuzushi stifled a quaking sob as he clung to his mother for dear life, acting as though he would be sucked into the ground the moment he released his grip on her.

“Don’t lose hope, I will help you look for him.”

100 years have passed and there is still no man going by the name Kazuha— but the people of his clan decided to treat him like one of their own, and he even made a friend while waiting for his soulmate.

Niwa was a gentle person who treated Kunikuzushi as if he were his younger brother despite the fact that Kunikuzushi was older than him.

He even sought to assist him in his search for Kaedehara Kazuha in their spare time, to the point where it became a routine for them.

He was grateful for the time they had spent together, though he wished it had been "Kazuha" who had created those memories with him.

200 years— Kunikuzushi lost that friend due to old age, but he kept a promise that he would always look after his descendants.

300 years— He was beginning to show signs of becoming frustrated. It was beginning to feel like there was no hope for him, and he was becoming irritated and frightened. Something he had no idea he was capable of feeling, or that he could feel. It's likely that he's become too accustomed to interacting with humans, and as a result, he's beginning to act like one.

Throughout his life, he surrounded himself with humans, but eventually, they were all doomed to perish.

What if it's all simply a cruel joke played by fate?

What if the name that is written on his chest is completely made up? But somehow, he wants to wait more, maybe a little bit more.

He always has enough time to wait.

He doesn’t really mind waiting for all eternity.

Hundreds of years had passed, and he was still patiently waiting— how long had it been? 400? 500? He may be a puppet endowed with immortality, but that doesn't mean he doesn't get tired of waiting.

Every day, he wakes up with a deep aching in his chest, wanting for something, for someone, to fill the void.

Will he spend the rest of his days just waiting and waiting?

'Kazuha— Kazuha— how much longer must I wait for you? Are you waiting for me as well? Do you also need me as much as I need you?'

When Kunikuzushi returned to where his mother resides, he was met with the Sakoku Decree as well as the Vision Hunt Decree. Ever since he gained his mother's permission to search for his soulmate, he has been fully aware that she is already planning for it.

He walked quietly to Tenshukaku, his steps as light as the wind, and the shogunate soldiers didn't bother checking him because of the golden feather he wears to represent his relationship with the shogun.

He entered the doors, and the Raiden Shogun, another puppet used by his mother, acknowledged his presence, as though knowing of his arrival.

“Mother.”

The Raiden Shogun's face was expressionless as she looked at him.

"Kuni, have you decided to return?" The Raiden Shogun spoke up unexpectedly, although her tone is cheerful at the sight of him.

Kunikuzushi hummed in response, moving closer to the Raiden Shogun, who immediately hugged him lovingly.

“Is everything alright, mother?”

Ei sighed as the Raiden Shogun shook her head.

“I’ve found some information about Kaedehara Kazuha.”

“Resistance, huh…”

“Hm. Apparently, he is working together with the resistance.”

Kunikuzushi fiddled with his finger subconsciously, unsure if he should ask his mother whether he could go there or not.

Ei sighed deeply as she witnessed her son's habit. She not only acquired information on where Kaedehara Kazuha is staying, but she also received information about the boy's soulmate.

She couldn't bear it the first time she watched her child sob so intensely.

But now another challenge has been thrown in front of her child. The last thing Ei wants Kunikuzushi to experience is despair.

So how will he react when he discovers that the man named Kaedehara Kazuha has a soulmate named Tomo?

"Don't go," was all Ei could say.

"But mother," Kunikuzushi swallowed, something rising in his chest. "I've been waiting for him for almost 500 years— I want to see him— I want to meet him..."

"You've been waiting for him and seeking for him for almost 500 years," Ei said with a trace of fury, not for her child, but for herself. "But did he ever make even a single attempt to find you?"

The words that his mother had just spoken caused Kunikuzushi to pause and blink in response.

Was he — was he the only one making the effort for them to cross paths?

"Mother," he started saying, but Ei interrupted him right away.

"I'll give you one more chance," Ei murmured before kissing her child on the forehead. He doesn't want her child to be hurt, but she can't keep him in the dark while his soulmate has another soulmate he loves.

"But if you can't take it— return and don't leave anymore. Stay with me in Tenshukaku, and I will keep you safe."

Kunikuzushi was worried and confused, nodding absentmindedly in response to his mother's words.

What can't he stand? He's been waiting a long time, so why is his mother acting as if he won't be able to accept everything?

Is there something dreadful waiting for him at the resistance's base?

He left Tenshukaku with a muddled mind, still recovering from what his mother had spoken.

"Kazuha— Kazuha— Kazuha—" He tried saying, wanting to receive comfort whenever he speaks of his soulmate’s name, completely unaware of how his voice trembled.

The name, for some reason, does not bring him any comfort; instead, it makes his chest feel heavy. It almost feels like the same feeling he had experienced when he first cried back then.

What awaited him at the Resistance's base was completely unexpected.

Was this what his mother meant? How he wouldn't be able to take it?

His fingertips began scratching his chest, attempting to claw it out, rip his flesh, and pretend that the name Kaedehara Kazuha did not exist at all.

On top of a rock stood two soulmates, too close for his own liking.

His crimson streak on his hair resembles that of his old friend. He noticed a name on the samurai's wrist, even if it was only for a split second.

Tomo.

It's not Kunikuzushi, Kuni, or Kabukimono that he used to go around with.

And the man who is standing next to his soulmate.

He resents how he patted the samurai with the red streak hair on his hair, causing his sleeves to roll up.

Because there was a very recognizable letter engraved on his wrist that he also carries on his chest.

Kaedehara Kazuha.

"The vision quest decree is causing a lot of stress for everyone... but at least I have my soulmate beside me."

It hurts—

"I am truly fortunate to have you," Kazuha spoke to the other man, chuckling softly before blowing into the fallen leaf.

It hurts—

Mother, why am I feeling this way? Was this how you felt when you lost your soulmate?

He wants to scream, stab himself in the chest, or delude himself into thinking the name written on his chest was a mistake. That it was not supposed to be Kaedehara Kazuha.

That he was not supposed to wait hundreds of years for him.

That he was not meant to ever meet him.

That he was not supposed to get hurt at all!

Why give him a soulmate who already has another soulmate!?

Is this what he had hoped for after hundreds of years of waiting?

He sneered and scratched his chest until he bled. Why, after all, do puppets bleed? Why isn't he more like the Raiden Shogun? Incapable to feel emotions. Maybe if he were more like that puppet, he wouldn't be feeling this way.

“Kazuha—” He muttered under his breath. “Where can I fit inside your life?”

“I fucking hate you.”

"But I hate myself even more for wanting to keep waiting for you."

Kazuha blinked, , turning his head to gaze at the spot where he thought someone had just called his name.

"Is something wrong?"

"No," Kazuha answered, shaking his head.

"But I felt a tug in my heart somehow."

I was inspired to write this fanfiction to spread sadness after I maxed my artifact and it went to the HP substat ^_^

God, please, don't take them away from me!

Wonder how I got thought of this title ? It was from me ! I was begging god to not take a way my father from me

So like yeah I'm writing so much things for Scara these days but like can you blame me ( yes, yes you can ), anyways I feel like that you're super duper close to Scara like you're one of those people who didn't betray him or anything like that, you even gave him the name "Kunikuzushi" ( ik you didn't but it's a cute hc leave me alone ), then, he planned on joining the Fatui with you just to find out they'll take you away, so he started begging god ( if there is one, his words not mine ) to not take you away from him, his precious lover. //// okay moving on ! Have a great time reading <3

Warnings : mentions of blood, cursing, and I think theres more but idk

Not proof read <3

--------------------------------------------

"Hey!" A person yelled at the boy, "Hm?" The boy asked, "What are you doing here? Why are you beside this domain.. it's dangerous here you know." The person said, the boy said nothing, the person started at him in a puzzled way, possibly examining him? "What's your name?" The person ask, "I don't have one." The boy says coldly, "ah.. well my name is [name]." The person introduced themselves. The boy says nothing, "Come with me, I'll help you find a place to stay." You say offering a hand, the boy looks at your hand and looks at you, you give the vulnerable boy a smile to show you're trustworthy. The boy hesitantly reaches for your hand. "Nice to meet you.." the boy says quietly while standing beside you, "I'll think of a name for you." You say comfortingly, the boy nods and gives you a soft smile.

"We're here! It's a not too shabby place, I sleep here, eat here, et cetera!" You say, "It's.. comforting." The boy says while looking around, you spin around to face the boy "Kunikuzushi." You say, the boy tilts his head, "Kunikuzushi..?" The boy says confusingly, "Your name, if you like it, if you don't I'll think of something else!" You say giving him a very bright smile, the boy, or rather, Kunikuzushi shake's his head, "I like it.." he mumbles, "I'm glad." You say quietly, "Can I ask.. what are you?" Kunikuzushi asks, "Are you asking if I'm a human?" You ask, Kunikuzushi nods, "Let's say I'm not a human. I'm no mortal, but my strength compares to a mortal, I have to keep training haha.." you laugh embarrassingly while scratching your head, Kunikuzushi's eyes lit up, "Can I watch you train someday..?" Kunikuzushi asks, your eyes widen slightly, no one was ever interested in your training, why is he? Your eyes softened, "Sure. One day if I'm okay." You say, "If you're okay?" Kunikuzushi asks, "I'll tell you one day, Kuni." You say patting his head, "You can rest anywhere you want, I'll be beside you at all times." You say reassuring him, Kunikuzushi nods, *Makoto.. where are you..?* You thought to yourself, looking at the starry night sky, you look back to see Kunikuzushi sleeping tightly and you smile to that, "I'll keep you safe," You mumble to yourself "whatever it takes, I won't let anything take me away from you. I won't fail to protect someone again." You added, you went near Kunikuzushi to pat his head, "Good night, Kuni." You say walking to a different room to sleep.

You open your eyes to see a very bright scene in front of you, you cover it with your hands and open your eyes properly, "It's morning already?" You ask to yourself, you sat up and yawned, you go out of the room to see Kunikuzushi still sleeping, you wondered why he wasn't breathing, you were getting worried the more you look at him, so you shake him to wake up. Kunikuzushi's eyes slowly opened, you smiled. "Thank god." You say, "Huh?" Kunikuzushi says confusingly while rubbing his eyes, "[name].." Kunikuzushi calls out, "Yes, Kuni?" You say "Thank you." He says, "For what? Why are you thanking me for?" You say while slightly chuckling. "For letting me stay here.." he says, "It's no problem, Kuni, don't worry about it! Anyways, you wanna come with? I'm going to be hunting food for us." You ask, "Maybe it's an opportunity to watch me train or battle as well." You added to your sentence to maybe convince him, but fortunately for you, he'll go wherever you go, so you're stuck with him. "Yeah! I wanna go!" Kunikuzushi says excitedly, you smile at him "Okay, [name]'s rules when going out hunting," you say facing him "Number one, follow me at all costs, don't stop holding my arm, hand, or clothes. Got it?" You ask, Kunikuzushi nods, "Number two, when in danger call out to me, yell my name as loud as you can." You say, "Number 3 don't take your eyes of off me. Always have me in your sight to make sure you're safe, okay?" You say, Kunikuzushi nods, "Good, not let's go." You say raising your hand, Kunikuzushi takes your hand and you both go out, "Alright.. some boars are on sight, wanna eat meat today?" You ask, "It's okay.." Kunikuzushi says, "Alright.. meat it is then." You say, you quietly stood up and aimed your bow at one of the boars, once you finally aimed you released the bow from your grasp, "Got it!" You say, "There's one more.. hm, should we, Kuni?" You ask, Kunikuzushi nods, "Alrighty." You say, you aimed once more at the boar and shot. "Got it again. Alright, follow me, I'll just retrieve my bows." You say, Kunikuzushi nods and follows you, he's gripping on your clothes btw, you can feel the fabric tugging.

"Kuni! Foods ready!" You yell out to him, "Coming!" He replied back, "Here!" You say serving his food. "Ah it looks so delicious.." Kunikuzushi's eyes lighten up seeing your food, "C'mon then, eat up! Your food will get cold." You say patting his head, "You won't eat?" Kunikuzushi asks you, "I will, I just need to wash the dishes on the river." You say smiling at him, he smiles at you back, his cheek is slightly puffed because of the food, "Okay, I'll wait!" He says, you giggle as there was still food in his mouth. "I'll be quick, don't worry." You assure him and flash him a smile before going outside, Kunikuzushi looks down at the food and smiles at it, "I met a new friend today, [name].." he mumbles, "Maybe I'll introduce you to them." He adds to his sentence. Kunikuzushi hears distant splashing outside, Kunikuzushi stands up and heads to the door to open you, he opened it to see Katsuragi (?) Kunikuzushi smiles and waves at him, "Kuni!" He calls out while waving, "Who is that by the way? I saw them leave your house." Katsuragi says, "They're [name], and no this is their house not mine." Kunikuzushi confirms, "Ah I see, sorry!" He apologizes scratching his head, "Ah, new friend or guest?" You ask, "[name]! You're done." Kunikuzushi says, "Of course, I did say I'd be quick, right?" You say smiling to him, "Hello! Please, come in, I'll be serving lunch." You say to Katsuragi, "Oh please it's alright! I just came here to check on Kunikuzushi, I thought he was alone." Katsuragi says, "It's fine! I insist, you're okay with that Kuni, right?" You ask, Kunikuzushi nods "See? Even Kunikuzushi agrees, come!" You say, "Thank you." Katsuragi says, "Ah yes, my name is Katsuragi, you're [name]?" He asks, "That's correct!" You say, the three of you enter the house, "Kuni! Your food is cold.." you say, "It's okay! I did say I'd wait for you." Kunikuzushi says, "Well then you can both sit down then, I cooked three just incase!" You say placing the plate in front of Katsuragi, "Thank you for the food." Katsuragi says, you giggle a bit, seeing Kunikuzushi so happy, "Eat up, Kuni, if you won't finish it I'll be going on a walk without you." You say, "Ah– wait for me!" He says in a slight panick, you laugh, "Katsuragi, do you want to come as well?" You ask, "Sure! I have no plans today anyways." He replies, you nod happily.

"Woah! So pretty.. if only I had a kamera to take a photo of this place." You say in awe, "I have to agree. It truly is magnificent!" Katsuragi says. "Oh– lavender melon, want one?" You offer the two of them "I'm good, thank you." Katsuragi says, "No thanks." Kunikuzushi politely declines, "Alright, all mine then!" You say smiling at yourself. "Huh– oh my a fox! It's so cute!" You say crouching down to it's level. "Hi there cutie!" You say happily scratching it's chin. "Where should we go next?" You say as you watched the fox run away. "Is this an adventure now?" Kunikuzushi says as he puts his hands on his hips, "Hehe.." you say nervously while scratching your cheek. "C'mon, just this day, please!" You pleaded holding Kunikuzushi's hand, "Shouldn't it be Kunikuzushi begging you for an adventure?" Katsuragi says while laughing, you three started laughing to your heart's content.

"Kuni.." you say sadly as Kunikuzushi sobs on your chest hugging you, "Why did he.." Kunikuzushi says in disbelief, you put your hand on Kunikuzushi's head, "Sh.. it's okay, I'll stay by your side." You say stroking his head, he tightens the hug, Kunikuzushi closes his eyes praying it's all a nightmare and he'll wake up seeing you hugging him and talking to Katsuragi happily. He opens his eyes and looks around, you aren't with him anymore, thus, he starts to panick. "[Name]?'' he says with a slight worried tone, once he realizes you were no where near the house he stands up quickly and opens the door to see you smiling and talking to a small child, "[Name]?" Kunikuzushi calls out to you, "Kuni!" You excitedly call out with a big smile, "Look, it's a child! He's sort of like you as well! Say Kunikuzushi, why don't you take care of him?" You say, "..sure." he says as he smiles at you and the child. "Yes, I'll take care of him for you!" Kunikuzushi says, "I'm glad, Kuni. Thank you." You say as you pulled him into a hug. "I'll leave him to you then, Kuni!" You say as you pat his head.

"Ah." You say so coldly, Kunikuzushi stayed silent looking at the ground, you in the other hand staring at the burning house, your hands are wrapped in a ball, are you frustrated? Sad? No emotions can determine what you're feeling, you look down at the little boy's body, "Are we going go bury him?" You say looking at Kunikuzushi with dark eyes, yes, the glow in your eyes gradually disappeared, he noticed it. Kunikuzushi nods, "he didn't even have a name yet.." you say sorrowfully, you help Kunikuzushi dig up the little boys grave, "Good bye, little one." You say as you threw a flower. "It's time we get going, come on." You say, your voice has no emotions anymore, and the fact you rarely smile, that's what he is very sad about, your smile, the emotion in your voice, the happiness you give him.

"What did you say?!" Kunikuzushi, or rather, Scaramouche says, "I said we'll need to take [name] away soon." One of the Fatui Agent warned him, "No. I won't let you!" He yelled, "It's an order!" The Fatui Agent said, "Whatever, do want you want but try to take them away I'll fucking blow your head open." Scaramouche said giving him a side eye leaving the room, "Why did they suddenly called you in?" You say with crossing your arms and tapping your arm, "No reason, just annoying agents. Come on." Scaramouche says and you follow, you sigh "lately the agents has been calling you in and following you, why is that?" You ask out of curiosity, Scaramouche shakes his head "I have no idea, I just know they're super annoying. They keep mentioning your name as well." Scaramouche says, "Hm? What are they talking about?" You ask, "I don't know. I'm not listening." He says, "Typical Kun–.. Scaramouche." You say, "What were you about to say?" Scaramouche says, "Nothing, don't worry about it." You say, "weird.." Scaramouche mumbles to himself. "Did you actually agree on joining the Fatui?" Scaramouche asks, "Yeah, I joined for you." You say, Scaramouche sighs, "You're always worried for me.. you always follow wherever I'm going and whatever I'm doing." Scaramouche says, you shrug, "Can't be helped I guess." You say patting his head, he slaps your hand away, "Why do you keep doing that?" Scaramouche says angerly, "Sorry, old habits doesn't disappear that easily." You say putting back your hand down. "I miss the old you." You say in a very hushed tone, "What was that? You've been oddly quiet recently, anything happen?" Scaramouche says, "Nothing, and it's nothing to worry about, or any of your business. I'll be off, stay safe." You say walking faster, Scaramouche halted, "You never talk to me like that.. where's the old you..?" Scaramouche says.

"What the fuck are you doing?! Let me go you fucking morons!" You yelled, Scaramouche eyes widen and ran to where he heard your voice, he gasped when he saw you and two agents gripping on you, "The Balladeer." An unfamiliar voice called out to him, "You.." Scaramouche says, "We already warned you, did we not? Now look at your.. lover. Taken away because of you, your stubbornness. It's your consequence." The person said again "Il Dottoree.. don't you dare fucking experiment on them you sick physco!" Scaramouche yelled at him, "And why is that?" I thought you didn't care about them. Agents, stick the needle in them. You know what to so after." Il Dottoree orders them, "Yes, sir." The agents said, "Wait– no, you can't do this! You fucking bitc–" you got cut of by feeling a deep pain, you screamed in agony, blood started to pour out your mouth and your chest, "What.. what is this?!" You screamed with your remaining strength, Dottoree snapped his fingers, "Agents.. please, take away the balladeer." Dottoree says, "Wait.. no– please! Don't take them away from me! God, please no! I'm begging you, don't separate me from them!"
