Beautician!Kenshin Headcanons
ALRIGHT SO I’M LATE, BUT HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY #1 LORD AND LOVER, KENSHIN UESUGI! Here, have some personal headcanons I have for Beautician!Kenshin because I couldn’t stop thinking about him. -Admin Yukari
Being well-versed with a sword, it wasn’t strange to see Kenshin wield a pair of scissors and be extremely talented with it.
While Kenshin was good with scissors in beauty school, he had to really work hard to keep up with the other necessary beauty skills, such as dyeing hair, washing hair, and practicing quality customer service. Sometimes his instructors would tell him to work on smiling more instead of frowning.
He used to practice on Sasuke, Yukimura, and Shingen but that all ended when all three of them were too scared to be near him and a sharp pair of scissors. 
Shingen complains that Kenshin isn’t gentle when he washes his hair and makes a point that customers can complain about getting headaches. Kenshin scoffs and calls it nonsense since Shingen’s scalp needs the harsh wash to get rid of his dandruff flakes.
Once, Kenshin tried buzzing off Yukimura’s hair with a razor, and it did not end as well as he thought it would. Yukimura was left with a few uneven spots in his hair and he was mortified to go out afterward. After this, Yukimura told Kenshin to work on his skills before using him as a sacrifice again in the future.
When Sasuke, with hesitation, decided to offer himself up to Kenshin to trim his bangs, it ended with Sasuke screaming in horror as he saw the straight blunt bangs across his forehead after Kenshin chopped it all off. It wasn’t until Kenshin stylized it in its usual manner did Sasuke sigh in relief and felt his heart return to its normal beat.
Kenshin is not fond of dyeing hair or bleaching it. He’s not a big fan of the lengthy process or the smell. He always says that it “takes up too much time” and doesn’t like how it gives his clients dead hair a few weeks later.
If they were brave enough, some of Kenshin’s classmates would ask him if he bleached and styled his own hair because of its unique style, but he would quickly tell them no and that it was “all natural,” much to their disbelief.
After graduating from beauty school and getting his license, Kenshin started off by joining a well-known hair salon in Echigo. It was the perfect opportunity to hone his skills and develop them even more. 
Right after he had his own booth, the owner of the salon started to notice the increase in clientele and couldn’t help but wonder if it was because of Kenshin’s skills or just himself in general. 
While most of his coworkers refuse to cut hair for young children because of their fidgety habits in the salon chair, Kenshin doesn’t mind. He usually gets them to stay still and quickly works his scissors through their hair, all while telling them to remain still if they didn’t want him to accidentally cut them. 
Even though women (and sometimes men) come flocking over to the hair salon and demand to have an appointment with Kenshin, he’s usually booked several months ahead. People usually have to wait 4-5 months for his next opening because Kenshin doesn’t like to pack his schedule too tightly.
Once Kenshin was informed that the hair salon would extend into other beauty services, he decided to quit and open up his own hair salon. Doing makeovers and nails was out of the question for him and he didn’t enjoy it as much as he did with hair. 
After opening up his own hair salon, Kenshin decided to establish his own rules. Sake Saturdays would be a thing among his employees, and he would happily accept sake and pickled plums as payment from his clients. 
Surprisingly, Kenshin gets also booked to do hair updos for weddings or special events. He’s willing to travel to his clients if they promise him a quality brand of sake too. 
Kenshin always participates in hair donations for organizations that use hair to create wigs for cancer patients. He believes in good causes and likes to make his hair salon known for donating the most qualified hair. It’s good publicity! 
Has a poor habit of talking with scissors and pointing at things with them. If things get heated in the salon, you better pray that Kenshin isn’t snapping his scissors at you as his voice darkens and he speaks faster than usual. 
Kenshin doesn’t listen to the music his hair salon plays. Instead, he carries his own black earbuds and smartphone to block out the salon’s pop music. He prefers instrumental music or even alternative rock.
One time Yoshimoto came in after hearing about Kenshin’s success with his new salon and he “accidentally” changed the music playing in the hair salon to extremely loud screamo music. It wasn’t long before Kenshin chased him out of the hair salon with his scissors and banned Yoshimoto from ever returning.
Even though he was taught to interact with his customers in beauty school, Kenshin is not much of a talker when he works on his client’s hair. He prefers to just listen to his music in silence, only speaking when he instructs his clients to follow him to the sink to wash their hair or to look at a certain angle while he cuts their hair. 
Despite this, Kenshin’s charisma always draws his customers to come back to him. It’s hard to resist him and his prices for his services too.
Kenshin cuts his own hair when it gets a little longer. He doesn’t trust anyone else to do it. 
Keeps his hair salon clean and sparkling every day. Kenshin can’t stand seeing a piece of hair on the floor if it hasn’t been swept and he doesn’t like seeing empty bottles of hairspray on the counters either. Proper sanitation is a must.
Kenshin’s salon eventually becomes the #1 go-to place for hair in Echigo, and he’s quite proud of his hard work. It’s a victory worth showing off! To celebrate, he eventually comes out with his own professional line of hair products and it hits off well among his clients and Echigo.  
Kenshin avidly avoids gossip and drama and refrains from participating in it. He wants his employees to keep it professional, but that all changes when a certain client keeps coming back to his hair salon and Kenshin develops the desire to get to know her better. His employees tease him about it and ask “What happened to the “zero tolerance policy” for gossip?” 
Eventually ends up hiring MC to be his social media and marketing promoter for his hair salon. All of Kenshin’s works of art for hair can be found on his Instagram and other social media websites thanks to MC’s meticulous work. 
His budding romance with MC starts when she allows him to use her hair to create more pretty updos and to test new methods. It isn’t long before Kenshin becomes quite comfortable with MC and loves the feel of her hair. He’s sure he won’t find anyone as open and accepting as her when it comes to being his test subject.
Once Kenshin and MC planned to get married, he asked her if she would allow him to stylize her hair for the wedding, and she agreed! It wasn’t every day that she had the chance to let Kenshin play with her hair. 
If Kenshin had children, they would be set for life when it comes to hair. He would be their one and only hairstylist. He can’t stand the thought of them seeing anyone else. Yandere much?

Yata goes missing for months and Saru freaks the shit out only for Yata to one day reemerge as a member of Jungle? And uh, Jungle having initially brainwashed Yata, but eventually they begin to actually start liking him and seeing him as one of them, and Yata vice versa also being attached so that he still doesn't want them hurt evem after S4 and Homra rescue him from the brainwashing? PURE YATA AND JUNGLE INTERACTIONS KEEP ME ALIVE NO MATTER HOW CRACK IT IS :")))
To make this at least vaguely wholesome maybe they didn't like mean to brainwash him exactly, like imagine this being amnesiac Yata and jungle finds him and decides to take advantage of the opportunity, only to eventually find that they rather like Yata. Like say this happens some time prior to MK, Yata's out wandering the streets by himself all depressed and miserable and he ends up like falling and hitting his head. He's found by some random jungle members, like there was a mission out to spray graffiti all over Bar Homra and they were on the way when they spotted Yata and recognized him as already having a bounty out for him on jungle. When they contact the main admin they're told to wait with Yata until J-ranker Beauty Angel comes to retrieve him and in return they'll get a bunch of points. Yukari eventually shows up and takes Yata into custody, bringing him down to jungle's hideout where Hisui is interested in speaking with this one lonely member of Homra.
Yata turns out to have a concussion and he's in and out of consciousness for a while, jungle taking care of him as best they can and plotting what to do when he wakes up. Eventually Yata finally gains consciousness only to wonder where he is and what's happened, turns out he like doesn't remember anything after the surprise party from LSW and he's like wondering where Fushimi is and what's going on. Hisui decides to take advantage of this opportunity, explaining to Yata that his success in messing with jungle's plans impressed Hisui so much that he decided to bring Yata into jungle to become one of their clansmen. However Yata was injured during a mission recently and it seems he's lost all memories of their time together. Yata's like wait really, all shocked that so much time has passed and he can't remember a thing. Hisui reassures him that they're all his friends though and will help him remember (and then Yata asks about Saruhiko again and Hisui gets a grave look as he says it seems Yata's forgotten that most painful memory too, how Fushimi betrayed him and went to join Scepter 4 instead).
Meanwhile Yata's absence has since been noticed, probably first by Kamamoto who was coming by to check on him. With Anna's powers being unreliable she can't even tell if Yata's alive or dead and in the end Kamamoto has no choice but to ask the Blues for help just because there's not really anyone else to rely on, Kusanagi's still overseas and the rest of Homra's scattered. Kamamoto figures his only option is to go see Fushimi, who of course mocks him and says that he's not Misaki's keeper, it's not Fushimi's business if Yata just decided to go home for a couple days or something. Kamamoto says no, it's been over a week and he found Yata's skateboard just lying abandoned in an alley near what looked like an old bloodstain. This gets Fushimi's attention right away, though he still tries to act like it's none of his business and Homra should have been keeping a better eye on their people. He tells Kamamoto to go away and leave him alone but of course as soon as Kamamoto's gone Fushimi's immediately into his own investigation trying to figure out where Yata's been taken and who could have kidnapped him.
Then MK happens and maybe right at the end when Douhan's trying to escape from Fushimi Yata shows up, dressed in green and grinning as he throws a smoke bomb to help Douhan escape. Fushimi sees Yata and just immediately stops cold, like he can't even bring himself to say anything mocking or angry because he's just dumbfounded all 'Misaki...?' Yata's face goes serious as he's like so there you are you traitor, Fushimi feels like those words should have made him happy but all he feels is this deep chill. Yata quickly turns and runs off, saying he'll deal with Fushimi later because his 'King' needs him, leaving Fushimi behind staring in disbelief.
So then after this Homra I'm sure would find out what happened, even if Fushimi didn't report what happened by now Anna probably knows too. Anna says that Misaki's aura seems clouded but she doesn't know what's wrong and she can't track him due to Hisui's interference. Fushimi's irritated by that, I could totally see him lashing out at Homra for being useless by letting Yata get taken this way and some of the Homra alphabet boys are like didn't you abandon him first you don't get to say anything to us. Hisui's plan starts moving in earnest now though and Yata's a part of that, he's become one of the group in jungle and he probably gets along pretty well with everyone and feels like he's got a real family. Homra keeps trying to find him and Yata doesn't get who these people are, the only one he recognizes is Saruhiko and even he doesn't look like Yata remembered – oh then imagine how this works out later when Fushimi joins jungle, like he leverages this as he's changed his mind and decided to go with Yata but really he's determined to find out what happened to Misaki and get him back to normal. During the final battle is when Fushimi finally gets through to Yata and Yata's memories return, but now he's conflicted because he gets why everyone wants to stop jungle and he knows he should be pissed at them but he still remembers how they used to be a family (imagine Yata showing up when Sukuna's fighting Fushimi and that's when his memory comes back, letting him realize that he chooses Saruhiko over Sukuna, but then at the same time he stops Fushimi from hurting Sukuna and tries to talk Sukuna into surrendering because Yata doesn't want to see anyone die).

Warnings: NSFW
She pulled him by his hand, a small giggle escaping her lips, as they made their way to their bedroom. Shingen closed the distance encircling his powerful arms around Mai's waist pressing her against him. She leaned onto his frame purring with delight as Shingen nibbled on the lobe of her ear; his hands roving along her midsection. Mai encircled an arm around him, her hand cradling the back of his head allowing Shingen to claim the soft skin on her neck. She cried wantonly feeling a stinging pain as Shingen bit her neck. His hot tongue instantly lapped the sore spot soothing the sudden ache, and causing a sweet chill to shoot down her spine.
"Shingen," Mai moaned.
He ground his hips from behind, driving Mai into the wall in front of her. She sighed softly feeling Shingen begin to make quick work of her obi. He pulled it off of her discarding it to the side as it fell over the edge of the veranda. Shingen turned Mai around taking in her flushed face.
"My goddess," he whispered in a husky tone.
She met his passionate expression with her own, a thrilled smile gracing her painted lips. The maids had gone to great efforts to make her presentable for the night. Esteemed guests had arrived at their cozy castle among them reputable daimyo and their close friends from Kasugayama Castle. Mai and Shingen had spent a majority of the night entertaining their guests. Yet, Shingen's roving hands had made it known he wanted her. Mai wasn't about to turn down the invitation. They snuck out of the audience chamber rushing back to their quarters.
Mai leaped up wrapping her arms and legs around her man. Shingen deftly caught her as their lips crashed together in a fierce kiss. His large hands pushed the hem of her kimono aside palming her thighs all the way to her rear where he gave her buttocks a firm squeeze. Mai broke away from Shingen throwing her head back in euphoric bliss as she started to grind against Shingen.
He grunted feeling a knee give out. "My, eager, are we?"
"I want you," Mai stated simply, leaning in to nip at his neck.
Shingen chuckled. "I don't mind taking you here, but someone could watch," he said, pressing her back against the wall.
Mai smirked. "Unlikely. I heard you order everyone to remain at the party. The sake still hasn't run outーAh!" Shingen pinned one of her hands against the wall as he began to grind into her sex. "Mm, Kenshin...is still...haa...here…"
"Louder. I want to hear you loudly," Shingen demanded gently as he slipped one side of her kimono off her shoulder.
He pressed a kiss to her bare shoulder while he hiked a knee in between her legs. Feeling the new pressure against her core, Mai caved into his request.
"Oh!"
Shingen smiled. "Such a beautiful voice, but it's not enough. I want to hear you sing."
He held onto her, continuing to pin her against the wall, and slipped his hand past her undergarments. He dipped two fingers into her folds stimulating her clit. Mai felt an electric feeling coil in her abdomen as she trembled with delight. Her hands clawed at his shoulders as she began to move with his fingers seeking that delightful ecstasy to satisfy her need. Shingen moved further in her plunging his fingers into her core.
"Nngh!"
"Cry, my love. Don't hold back."
"Shin...gen…"
"Mai…"
He bit into her shoulder making her cry with a mix of pain and pleasure. Her arms tightened around him as she moved with more urgency against his stimulating fingers. Shingen sealed her lips with his own, his tongue pushing into her mouth as he continued to pump into her in a steady rhythm. Their soft moans echoed into the quiet night while their tongues slid together savoring the feel against each other. Shingen curled his fingers knowing he was bound to hit Mai's g-spot. The moment she squirmed in his arms, Shingen pursued that spot relentlessly hindering all coherent thought from her mind. Mai couldn't help but cry out loud once more.
Her hand clutched at her own breast as she wildly bucked against Shingen's hand and fingers. Mai lost herself to the throes of pleasure feeling the coil in her abdomen close to bursting. Her labored breaths shortened to small, sharp gasps as she threw her head back again. Her vision blanked into white making her squeeze her eyes shut. With a few more pumps of his fingers, Shingen felt her core tightened all of a sudden.
Mai screamed without caution as Shingen continued to draw out her release. His fingers smoothly slid in and out causing her body to tremble in pleasure. Her body gradually slackened, and Mai practically slumped against his broad chest. Shingen withdrew his fingers from her folds as he set her down. He slipped his drenched digits in his mouth getting a taste of his beloved's personal flavor.
"As expected, my goddess tastes sweet as always. I'll have you ascend to the heavens once I'm inside of you."
"You mean...there's more?" Mai asked breathlessly.
Shingen reached down between them pulling the cords to his robes. Mai watched languidly as her lover easily undressed, his clothes pooling in a heap around him. Shingen parted the rest of her kimono letting it also fall around her feet. His hands trailed over her body cupping every supple part of her. Mai shivered with his touch especially when he fondled with her sensitive peaks on the swell of her breasts.
Shingen leaned in brushing his nose along her tresses. "You can't expect me to leave things as is. I want to make love to you."
Mai hummed with satisfaction. "I am yours, my love."
He removed the last of their clothing. Hiking one of her legs up and around his waist, Shingen positioned himself at her entrance. He kissed her deeply just as he entered her in one fluid motion. Mai moaned against his lips feeling his entire girth inside of her so suddenly. She pulled herself against him as Shingen began to pull out. He pushed back in her a split second later, and soon established a steady rhythm as he thrust into her over and over again.
They parted gasping for air equally as Shingen continued to drive her up against the wall. Mai tried to match his speed feeling the familiar, libidinous pressure in her abdomen growing again. Her fingernails clawed and scratched at his broad back while she rode him encouraged by his rapturous grunts. Shingen braced himself against the wall with one hand as he continued to hold Mai with the other. He gazed between their bodies, her breasts bouncing with each thrust, and their sex joined together in blissful euphoria.
"I love you," Shingen rasped.
Mai kissed him deeply, never breaking pace with him, cupping his face in her hands.
"Me too."
Shingen buried his face in her chest, his warm breath fanning along her damp skin. Mai clutched his chestnut hair as they changed the pace of their rhythm. They rocked a little slower, angling their bodies, and drawing out the building pleasure between them. Their moans echoed out into the night; the moon proving ample light of their slick bodies in the summer heat. Shingen returned to her neck and chest leaving biting kisses all over her skin. Mai shut her eyes and arched just as Shingen took a sensitive peak in his mouth. He swirled his tongue around her nipple before sucking and grazing his teeth along the tender flesh.
"Mmm… Aah…"
Her hand returned to her other breast in hopes of increasing the pleasure she was feeling. However, Shingen took note and switched breasts as his other hand teased the other. Mai felt pleasantly overwhelmed. She could feel Shingen in all directions as he lavished her with attention. She only hoped she could do the same for him as she continued to ride him.
It didn't take long to finally reach that crescendo. Mai began to twitch before convulsing against Shingen. She felt him release inside of her just as quickly; her body milking him for every drop. They slid to the floor, breathless, and exchanging sloppy kisses as they pulled out from each other. Shingen reached behind him grabbing Mai's kimono, and draped it over her shoulders. He pulled her against him resting against the wall, and gazed up at the full moon above them.
"Has my goddess returned back down from the heavens?" He asked.
Mai playfully swatted his chest. Her fingers traced across his damp skin flitting across a few battle scars and the one from his surgery.
"I've always been here," she replied, tapping at his heart with her finger.
Shingen smiled. He caught her hand and brought her fingers to his lips. He kissed each digit before looking down at her. The same passionate gazed remain in his eyes making her own gaze soften. Shingen held her chin in his fingers.
"Stay with me always," he murmured.
"Always," Mai replied.
They leaned in sharing a soft kiss in the summer night.

Phan Cam: The Festival of Our Dreams
WARNING: This post may be a bit long. Also, there’s a chance some posts may not show on time.
>The stage for the Dream Festival was all set up and ready. The idols were doing some last minute rehearsals before the first concert. Dream FES will last six days from Monday to Saturday this year. The first event takes place tonight on Monday which will be like any other concert. The second event takes place on Wednesday where it’s Open Mike Nite and anyone can perform on stage, even with the idols. The finale takes place on Saturday where the competition to see which Rookie Idols, Skull included, will get to become True Idols and possibly record a CD takes place with the idols finishing it with a huge show stopper.
Tumblr media
Okay, so I stand here and I announce the groups when they come out. I think I got it.
Tumblr media
Good. Now when you announce them, don’t hold back, give it as much energy as you can so the audience can feel it.
MC: I’ll do just that.
Worker: Hey, they stylist is calling for one last check!
MC: Coming!
>The MC leaves. Haruto also goes back stage.
Tumblr media
>The dressing room. KUROFUNE was getting ready for that night.
Tumblr media
God, this is just so great! We’re gonna blow this place tonight!
Tumblr media
Calm down, Ryuji, I’m just as excited as you are.
Skull: I know. But this isn’t like all the other times I performed with you guys. This is the big time.
Tumblr media
The real big time.
Tumblr media
I’m glad to see you’re hyped for this. Now we know the songs we’ll be performing?
Yuto: First, we perform OVER THE SEVEN SEAS. Then, Treasured Hearts. And we finish off with Whole New World.
Skull: I like that choice. Though I wish I coulda written another song before all this.
Keigo: This year’s Dream FES is a week long to correspond with the End of Summer. You’ll have another chance soon.
??????: I hope so.
>They turn to see DearDream and Haruto come in.
Keigo: What brings you here?
Tumblr media
We wanted to wish you luck... Or is it “break a leg”?
Tumblr media
Either way, we hope you’ll do well.
Keigo: Thanks.
Yuto: What songs are you performing for Dream FES?
Tumblr media
We’re starting with Dream Pulse. Next, we’ll do Up to speed!. And finally, GO TOMORROW!!!!!
Tumblr media
I’ve added something new to our finale.
Skull: Really? You added something new to that last song?
Tumblr media
Actually, he’s talking about the finale where both our groups perform.
Haruto: Actually. it’ll be three this year.
Tumblr media
For real!? There’s more this year!?
Haruto: (smiling) You’re Ryuji Sakamoto, am I right? KUROFUNE’s newest member.
Skull: It’s a part-time job, actually. But I hope to work full if I can.
Haruto: I see. Well, this year, ANSwer will be joining you.
Kanade: So Asuma san, Chikage san, and Eiji san will be singing with us?
Haruto: That’s what the producers said. Letting one of the newer idol groups perform with two of the legendary idol groups, especially with KUROFUNE’s newest idol would gather more people.
Shin: That sounds a little... Big.
Haruto: That’s business. But don’t worry. I know you can do it. I’ve seen you do more impossible things than I can count.
Kanade: No doubt.
Haruto: So, can I count on you to do this?
KUROFUNE and DearDream: Yes!
Haruto: That’s the spirit. Well, see you tonight.
>With that, he leaves... And we come in.
Tumblr media
Sounds like a big job.
Skull: I’m sure we can pull it off. With all of us here.
Keigo: That’s right. By the way, I like your concert outfits.
Tumblr media
Thanks, my mom helped me put them together.
Keigo: God bless you, Katherine sama.
Tumblr media
Wait until the Wednesday event, will have something really great on.
Chizuru: I’m already looking forward to it. By the way, how’s Suzui san? I hear she’s taking part in the Stride Tournament.
Panther: She’s doing fine. I’ll tell her you wish her luck.
Chizuru: And don’t forget to tell her that we love her.
Tumblr media
That’s a little too much for her to take, but okay.
Tumblr media
But thanks for wishing her luck, though.
>Then, Peter, Harry, Gwen, Miles, Anya, Aleksei, Randy, and Liz arrive. Also with them are John Jameson, Flash Thompson, even Alistaire Smythe, and three new faces: A young man with glasses, a chubby boy in a school uniform, and a young woman in a sweater.
Tumblr media
You made it!
Tumblr media
It wasn’t easy, we almost lost our luggage.
Tumblr media
Only because one of us didn’t exactly packed light.
Tumblr media
Well excuse me if this is my first trip overseas!
Tumblr media
You should have just taken my advice and only packed what you really needed. Me? My football’s all I need.
Tumblr media
So, you didn’t pack anything else? No clothes, just your ball and the clothes you already have on?
Flash: ... Okay, maybe there’s more than a ball that I need.
Tumblr media
If he’s stayin’ with me and Harry, I draw the line at lendin’ my clothes to him.
Tumblr media
Relax, Ryuji, I made arrangements at the Wilton Hotel.
Tumblr media
Good. I don’t think any of the places our Japanese friends stay are wheelchair accessible.
Tumblr media
Actually, my apartment has an elevator.
Tumblr media
Yeah, we saw it the last time we were here.
Tumblr media
So, how excited are you that you’ll be doing this?
Skull: I’m a little nervous, but everyone’s here, so I’m okay.
Tumblr media
Speaking of everyone, aren’t you going to introduce us?
Peter: Right. Everyone, these are some of the friends I talked about. This is Kamala Khan.
Kamala: It’s nice to meet you.
Tumblr media
(outfit altered to avoid being flagged) It’s nice to meet you, too, Kamala chan.
Harry: Ollie Osnick, he was a student at Oz Academy.
Tumblr media
Actually, I’m already acquainted with Ryuji san.
Skull: Really? How so?
Ollie: ... It’s complicated.
Peter: And last, but far from least, Grady Scraps.
Tumblr media
It’s nice to meet you. お会いできて光栄です。
Tumblr media
名誉は私たちのものです。
Grady: Sorry about the uniform. It was in such a hurry, this was the only thing I could get on.
Tumblr media
It’s alright, Grady, we’re here until the 24. We have plenty of time to shop for new threads.
Grady: That’s good to hear.
Chizuru: Then might I suggest Peace Parade. Sheep Heavenly is good, too.
Tumblr media
For real!? Idol Brands can be bought as well?
Keigo: Normally, it isn’t. But remember, even though they are used in the Dream FES System, the clothes are still made by designers and they use our concert to promote their clothes.
Panther: It’s true. Mom does it sometimes, too.
Fox: I see... I wonder if I should feature my art in a concert.
Tumblr media
Maybe on Wednesday. I know they'll love it, Yusuke.
Tumblr media
And that’s why I love you, Ren.
>We both smile.
Tumblr media
They’re the same as always. Even though we just saw them not that long ago.
Queen: Anyway, now to introduce ourselves.
>We introduce ourselves. Even Yuto, Keigo, and even DearDream introduced themselves.
Ollie: Nice to meet you all. But it seems you’re missing a couple of people.
Queen: Diego and Mishima are already in the crowd. We’ll be meeting up with them soon.
Skull: I just wish Axel and the others could be here, but they went back to Landmark City. I’m sure we’ll see ‘em again soon.
Oracle: Me, too. I’ve heard of this guy called Garrett and I really hope I’d meet him.
Worker: (coming in) Hey, the concert starts in a few minuets. You guys better get ready. (leaves)
Joker: Well, we’ll see on later on. Have a great show.
Tumblr media
Enjoy the show!
>We leave.
>In the crowd, we meet up with Diego, Admin, Shiho Suzui, Boss, Sae, Mrs. Sakamoto, and even our councilor, Takuto Maruki.
Tumblr media
About time you got here. This place is getting hyped up and packed.
Tumblr media
(sorry if she’s still wearing her old uniform) He’s right, a lot of people showed up this year. Look over there.
>She pointed and we saw that Japanese fencer, Kagami Tsurugi, was here with French teen model, Adrien Agreste.
Panther: Are they here as a couple?
Shiho: I doubt it. They brought their friends.
>She is right, there are seven more teenagers with them... Two of which I recognized, but I won’t say more on it.
Tumblr media
Not just them. Look there.
>He pointed to who is unmistakable the “Super High Schooler”, Moyuru Koda, and his teammate/boyfriend, Junichi Kotoba. They’re holding each other really tight.
Tumblr media
It looks like we have some royal visitors, too.
>She was right. Not too far from where we were are the Royal Family of Attilan with their fellow Inhumans, Inferno, Iso, Haechi, and Flint Jaycen. (We’ll just call him Jaycen because we already know a Flint.) Not too far from them is King T’Challa of Wakanda, aka Black Panther. And next to him is Thor Odinson of Asgard.
Tumblr media
I see a few other celebrities, too.
>I look around. I also see Hifumi is here. I also spot Rise, Yu, Yosuke Nanako, a man who I can assume is her father, and Teddie. I don’t think they notice me. With them is model/actress, Yukari Takeba. Not too far from them is the American author, Phoebe Halliwell and her husband, Coop. They were in deep conversation with... A young dark-skin man with pink dread locks who was accompanied by another dark-skin young man with brown cornrows, a young man with facial hair and glasses, a young man with long blonde hair, and, was was unmistakably, a brown and blue mecha.
Tumblr media
This is getting too much. How’d I get dragged into this, anyway?
Oracle: (smirking) Because you just can’t say no to a face like this.
Boss: Heh! Maybe.
?????: Maybe you’re just getting soft.
>We turn to the newcomer... We were shocked.
Tumblr media
What the hell are you doing here?
Tumblr media
Are you saying it’s wrong to visit family once in a while?
Crow: Says the man who abandoned me and my mother in our hour of need.
Shido: That’s all water under the bridge now. Let bygones be bygones...
Tumblr media
Besides, I happened to be a fan of Sankishi. Is that alright with you?
Crow: ... Just behave yourself, alright?
Shido: Like a church mouse. (sits quietly on his seat... Next to Crow)
Tumblr media
This is going to be a long week.
?????: No kidding.
>Then, another comes in... You’ve got to be kidding.
Tumblr media
I never pegged you to be someone who like theses events.
Tumblr media
Now do we have to be such a downer? ... By the way, how do you like my anime look?
Tumblr media
Seriously? What is it with older men and anime?
Stark: Just dressing for the occasion.
???: Actually, I kind of agree with her.
>Then, four new faces join in.
Tumblr media
But at least your beard looks good.
Stark: That’s something, I guess.
Tumblr media
Still, I guess it’s a slight improvement from your last two anime forms.
Tumblr media
I’ve never seen that, so I can’t judge.
Tumblr media
Eh, he’s still the same, either way.
Stark: (in defeat) Let’s just enjoy the show.
Mrs. Sakamoto: (whisper) It’s nice of you to come, by the way.
Energetic boy: (also whispering) Thanks.
Tumblr media
?
>Then, the lights dimmed and the crowd starts cheering louder. The lights on the stage come on. The MC comes on stage.
MC: HELLO, TOKYO! WELCOME TO THE DREAM FESTIVAL 2019!
>The audience was hyped.
MC: Now before we begin, I first would like you all to give a big warm welcome to some famous people in the crowd tonight. Let’s give them a hand!
>The crowd cheered for all the people the others mentioned. Although, I’ve noticed that the Inhumans got little while Black Panther and Thor got a lot... Man, they’re cruel to them, they’re just like us... Only with power and slightly different appearances. Koda mostly got cheers from the girls while Rise and Yukari got cheers from the guys.
MC: And now, with out further ado, let’s welcome our first act for the night. The legendary idol group with a million cheers in one night, our very own Sankishi!
>The crowd cheered loud for the first idol group.
Tumblr media
Haruto: Good evening, everyone! How are you?
>The crowd cheered.
Susa: That’s music to our ears. And we know that we’ll be music to your ears.
Ichika: Let our voices reach to you, tonight. Your hearts will glow for us.
Haruto: And we will glow for you. Let’s soar to our future.
Sankishi: TOGETHER!
Dorika Time!
Shido: I believe this one should suffice.
Tumblr media
Crow: How... Fitting for you.
>We load our wands and launch the cards into the stage.
Catch Your Cheers!
Haruto: I shall wear your cheers with honor!
Catch Your Cheers!
Susa: My heart goes out to all of you!
Catch Your Cheers!
Ichika: The songs we sing shall be the pride of tonight!
Tumblr media
(sorry for the chop job)
White Orchid Series! Complete!
>Sankishi begin their performance. The audience and us really enjoyed... But we know what we’re really looking forward to, but Sankishi is good, too.
>After some time, Sankishi finished their songs.
Haruto: Thank you all! I hope you enjoy the next group as much as you enjoyed us!
>They leave and the MC comes back.
MC: I’m so sure they will, Haruto san. Now for your next group. They were practically born for this show. Heck, they’re basically named after it. Give up for the idol group that puts the Dream back in Dream FES! DearDream!
>Everyone cheered.
Kanade: Before we begin, we would like to give a big thank you to Moyuru Koda, who is a big fan of ours, for coming here.
Tumblr media
If you can really live up to your group’s name, I’ll really be hyped for the finale on Friday.
Junya: Then I guess we shouldn’t disappoint now, should we?
>The crow gave a little laugh. Then, I notice Koda is holding his arms and chest. I use my Third Eye to take a closer look at what he’ saying to Junichi.
Tumblr media
It’s alright. We took all the precautions. I don’t think it’s going to happen here.
Koda: I know... I’m just worried. After what happened at that party... What I almost did to you.
Junichi: It wasn’t your fault. No one could predict that would happen.
Koda: Oh yeah? ... Tell that to your missing leg. You nearly lost your place on the team.
Junichi: But I didn’t give up... And you shouldn’t either.
Koda: Normally I would side with the winning team. I always saw you as that... But I realize, it never really was about winning or losing.
Junichi: And what’s that?
Koda: ... If I knew that, I would own the world.
>The two young men smiled in joy.
DearDream: Alright then, let’s being our show!
Dorika Time!
Junichi: If their first song is Dream Pulse, I think this one will work.
Tumblr media
Koda: (smiling) Yeah, I think so, too.
>They loaded their cards and launched away.
Catch Your Cheers!
Kanade: Thank you so much!
Catch Your Cheers!
Shin: Thank you for your support!
Catch Your Cheers!
Junya: Your cheers will light up!
Catch Your Cheers!
Itsuki: Thank you, we’ll do our best for you!
Catch Your Cheers!
Chizuru: Your cheers will strengthen my love for you!

Candy Block R Series! Complete!
>DearDream performs their song, Dream Pulse. The audience really applauded when they finished.
>Meanwhile, with T’Challa and Thor.
Tumblr media
I am still unfamiliar with this. Do all Japanese idols transform like that?
Tumblr media
According to Stark, only those who work for this production company. Though I still wish I knew how.
Tumblr media
(who couldn’t help but overhear) No one really knows. It’s one of Japan’s greatest mysteries. Although, I’ve heard the System works on the dreams of the idols and the people who go watch them... But that’s just one theory.
Thor: I see... I think.
King T’Challa: (looking through the Dorika) Let’s see. I was told when they first performed Up to speed!, they used this.
Tumblr media
Iso: The original Candy Block Coord. That should be good.
Thor: Yes. Very elder school.
Iso: That’s old school.
Thor: What’s the difference?
Tumblr media
Can you hurry up, Iso? They’re about to start up again.
Iso: Right.
Dorika Time!
Catch Your Cheers!
Kanade: Let’s get things up to speed! ... Okay, not a good job, but still.
>DearDream change their clothes.
Tumblr media
Candy Block Series! Complete!
>DearDream performs their song, Up to speed!.
>Meanwhile, with the Investigation Team.
Tumblr media
I brought the snacks!
Tumblr media
Thanks, Yosuke senpai.
Tumblr media
Yes, thank you.
Tumblr media
Yes, thank you.
Tumblr media
I don’t think you need to copy that.
Tumblr media
Just be careful, Yosuke, that looks like more than you can carry.
Yosuke: Sorry, Dojima san, I guess I didn’t expect a certain bear to order so many.
Teddie: (shocked) Now that’s just rude!
Yosuke: But you’re the one who- WHOA!
>Yosuke tripped.
Koda: (who noticed) Hold it!
>As if he were as fast as the wind, Koda quickly catches Yosuke and all the snacks before they hit the ground.
Koda: Your friend is right, you have way too many snacks here.
Yosuke: (a bit surprised) R- Right!
Teddie: (pouting) So mean.
Rise: (also surprised) Wow, you caught my senpai so quickly. No wonder you’re the Super High Schooler.
Koda: (helping Yosuke back on his feet) Thanks.
Nanako: (amazed) You’re the Super High Schooler? Wow. Actually, my big bro is a bit of a super high schooler himself.
Koda: ... (laughs) I doubt it. I have something he probably will never have.
Yu: And what’s that?
Koda: ... If I told you, they would kick me out of the tack team.
>The Investigation Team just stares in wonder. Koda begins to make his way back to Junichi when he suddenly felt like he was being watched. He turns... Phoebe Halliwell and the young man she was talking to were watching him. he quickly turns, pretending not to notice, and returns to Junichi.
>With them.
Tumblr media
(using comic appearances to avoid getting in trouble) You saw it, too, didn’t you?
Tumblr media
No doubt. So he’s really... That sucks. He’s boyfriend will probably be disappointed.
Tumblr media
Hold on, Kaz, I don’t think we should act just yet. He hasn’t done anything, so I think we’re safe for now.
Kaz: Hope you’re right.
Tumblr media
(sorry, this is the only picture I could find) Be patient, sir. We’ll have our chance.
Kaz: Right.
Tumblr media
Yo, Kaz, they’re about to start.
Tumblr media
We thought it over and we thought this should be used for GO TOMORROW!!!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s no Gucci, but I think this is just as fabulous.
Kaz: Right.
Dorika Time!
Catch Your Cheers!
Kanade: Let’s go on to our future together!
Tumblr media
Rose Bullet Series! Complete!
>They being their song, GO TOMORROW!!!!!. The crowd really cheered, even us and the Royal Family joined in.
Tumblr media
Looks like you guys have a favorite group.
Tumblr media
Maybe.
Tumblr media
Just a little.
Tumblr media
...
Tumblr media
Fine, a lot. But only because we can sense the heart in their songs.
Tumblr media
As can I. If they were like us, we would definitely wish to bring them back with us.
Tumblr media
*bark*
Iso: It’s one of the few things that makes us no different... Music.
Haechi: You might get your chance.
Kanade: Thank you for tonight’s cheers! Be sure to give that same love to KUROFUNE!
>With that, DearDream leaves and the MC arrives.
MC: For our next group, they have sailed through the trail and hardships, but have made it all they here tonight. They even recently picked up a new member. Ladies and gentlemen, weigh anchor and raise your colors for the Gold, Silver, and Bronze: KUROFUNE!
>As KUROFUNE gets on stage, the crowd cheered a lot. Me and my friends were cheering the loudest. I also notice the Investigation Team cheering really loud, too... I hope Skull gets the win on Saturday.
Yuto: The time has come to set sail to dreams ahead!
Keigo: The stars shall guide us to your hearts and your souls!
Tumblr media
So join us on our adventure to find our passion!
KUROFUNE: Let KUROFUNE be your captain tonight!
Dorika Time!
Catch Your Cheers!
Tumblr media
Yuto: The great seas are calling us!
Catch Your Cheers!

Keigo: Your cheers will be our map to you!

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
>Skull was wearing the same thing, but with a more Bronze color.
New Sailing Series! Complete!
>KUROFUNE begin their song, OVER THE SEVEN SEAS. We were cheering loudly for them.
Skull: (after finishing the song) This next song is a song I wrote. I would like to dedicate to my friends and family who supported me all this time. Especially, Ren Amamiya, Goro Akechi, Peter Parker, and Harry Osborn.
Tumblr media
Thanks so much for everything you’ve done! I love you all!
Tumblr media
We love you, too, brother!
Tumblr media
We know you can do it, Ryuji!
Peter: You and KUROFUNE can do it! Together!
Harry: This is your dream! Go for it!
>Suddenly, the boy known as Makoto, leaped up from his seat.
Makoto: THAT’S RIGHT! JUST TAKE FLIGHT AND YOU CAN DO IT!
Tumblr media
(whisper) Thanks, little bro.
Dorika Time!
Catch Your Cheers!
Innocent Pirates ver. Ryuji
Skull: I’m gonna enjoy this!
Catch Your Cheers!
Tumblr media
Yuto: Now we shall sing to your hearts!
Catch Your Cheers!

Keigo: Your cheers shall brighten the stage tonight!

(Imagine Skull wearing the same outfit, but Bronze in comparison to Gold and Silver.)
Innocent Pirates Series! Complete!
>They being to sing Treasured Hearts.
>After they finished, a Wakandan guard comes to us.
Wakandan guard: My king and his fellow Avenger wish to speak to those Ryuji Sakamoto spoke of.
Tumblr media
Really? They wishes to speak to us?
Wakandan guard: I also have been asked by Lady Crystal that Chloe, Kamala, and Makoto of the Future Avengers come as well.
Makoto: Only Bruno comes.
Bruno: (in defeat) Please don’t drag me into this.
Peter: Well, we should at least see what they have to say.
>We make our way to the VIP Seats where the royals were waiting for us.
Tumblr media
Hello, Future Avengers and Web Warriors and friends.
Chloe: Hey, Triton.
Triton: We will be speaking with Chloe, Kamala, Makoto, and Bruno. King T’Challa and Thor will speak with the rest of you.
Peter: Alright.
Chloe: Tell them I’ll speak to them later.
>Me, Crow, Peter, and Harry go over to King T’Challa and Thor.
Thor: You are friends of Ryuji Sakamoto?
Joker: Yes, we are.
Peter: We support him in his dreams and what he does.
Thor: Yes. I know you two as Spider-Man and Stealth Spider, so I can say that you have made many great friends.
King T’Challa: That is true.
Crow: Is that all you just wanted to do?
King T’Challa: Maybe. I have heard a great deal about you, Goro Akechi, the Detective Prince. And your father.
Crow: What about him?
Thor: We know that Inhuman reside here in Japan as well. But they mysteriously disappeared... After the sudden appearances of psychotic breakdowns and mental shutdowns.
Tumblr media
...
King T’Challa: But now that’s passed thanks to the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. After some time, Japan’s Inhumans are slowly resurfacing.
Joker: Yes, we know. Some of them are even at our school. But we have no problems with that. They’re not doing anything wrong.
Tumblr media
They make Japan feel like we’re part of something bigger.
Thor: That is true... However, there is one thing that troubles us.
Crow: What’s that?
King T’Challa: ... Actually, it can wait until after the show.
Harry: You’re right. This is Ryuji’s show. Let’s not spoil it. We’ll talk later.
>We return to our seats. Chloe stays behind to talk to King T’Challa and Thor.
Stark: So what did they have to say?
Bruno: We’ll tell you later. Right now, KUROFUNE is about to sing their last song for the evening.
Adi: (nods) I searched the deck and I think I know just the cards to use for this song.
Tumblr media
Crow: I think that will be just perfect.
Dorika Time!
Catch Your Cheers!
Yuto: Now for our finale for tonight!
Catch Your Cheers!
Tumblr media
Keigo: Thank you! This will keep me going!
Catch Your Cheers!
Skull: Nothin’ is between me and your Cheers!
Tumblr media
(Skull’s has bronze colored feathers on both shoulders.)
Infinite Voyage Series! Complete!
>KUROFUNE performs their last song of the night, Whole New World. (Not the song from Aladdin, in case you were wondering.)
>With the Investigation Team.
Tumblr media
(Can’t believe I didn’t get to talk when we came to the scene with Kida.) That song was great. It’s definitely nothing like the Disney one... Actually, they’re both good.
Nanako: I want to vote them to win the competition.
Rise: Well technically, KUROFUNE already won in a previous Dream FES. They’re not Rookie Idols anymore. Except for Ryuji, so I guess we can vote for him.
Nanako: Then I’ll vote for him.
Yu: That’s good of you, Nanako.
Teddie: Yes. Beary good.
Rise: If he ever makes it, I so want to help him with his CD. Yosuke senpai, you help, too.
Yosuke: (a little confused) Why me?
Rise: Well, you always have headphones on. Maybe you can lend a hand.
Yosuke: (groans) As if I have nothing better to do. And I have a relative who’s an idol, too.
>With us.
Tumblr media
Way to go, KUROFUNE!
Adi: I agree!
Mrs. Sakamoto: I love you, Ryu kun!
Tumblr media
(Does she have to shout out my pet name?) 
Keigo: Thank you! And we hope you will share that love with Ryuji san and vote for him for the competition!
>The whole audience really cheered as the MC comes back on.
MC: I’m sure they will, Keigo san. And good luck to you... Ryu kun.
Tumblr media
(trying to walk off stage quietly) (Keep it together. Keep it together.)
MC: And now, for our last group of the evening. They help with the most difficult questions in your life No matter what, they are the ones you are searching for. (Mostly because they were voted for that name.) Ladies and gentlemen, give a big hand for ANSwer!
Tumblr media
Akiomi Inamasu: Good evening, Tokyo!
Nanao Hidaka: We may be last, but we’re really not the last!
Souji Kibino: Yes.
ANSwer: Now let’s get to it!
(Since they’re a minor group in Dream Festival, we’ll be skipping their song. Sorry, guys. Maybe if they make a third series.)
MC: Weren’t they spectacular? Make you wish they really were the answer, then every student would pass their test.
>Everyone laughs a little and the joke as they applauded.
MC: Well, that’s it for tonight. When we come back on Wednesday, we’ll be having our Open Mike Nite. Anyone wishing to perform doing whatever show they wish to put on, good luck to you all! And remember... If you wish to use the System, you have to sign in and pay the fee in advance before Wednesday. If you haven’t, you have to pay double.
>All the idols join the MC on stage.
Haruto: The Open Mike Nite is here to remind us that you are just as important to us as we are important to you.
Kanade: You have just as much talent as we do. If not in singing or dancing, then in other ways. No matter what.
Yuto: We wish only good luck to you for showing us just how well you do what you do. Not in competition, just for fun.
Akiomi Inamasu: So let’s see what you can do that night. So until then...
Idols: Our goal is the Dream Festival! Dream FES is about to start!
>Everyone in the audience, including us, cheer happily.
>In the dressing room, we, including, the Investigation Team, Tony Stark, and the Future Avengers, came back to congratulate KUROFUNE for their performance.
Flash: That! Was! AWESOME! ... Though it will never be as cool as Spidey.
Peter: Aw, thanks, Flash.
Flash: (unimpressed) Don’t push it, Parker.
Tumblr media
What Mr. Thompson is trying to say is, you guys did well tonight.
Keigo: Thank you, Makoto chan.
Makoto: That’s gonna be tough. My name is like hers.
Queen: I don’t mind being called Mako chan if that’s alright with Haru.
Noir: It should be fine.
Mrs. Sakamoto: Ryu kun, I’m so proud of your performance.
Skull: Thanks, Mom. (And enough with the Ryu kun, already.)
Rise: Just keep it up and might win that CD debut.
Skull: Yeah. I’m lookin’ forward to it.
Yu: We’ll be supporting you all the way.
Yuto You have good friends, Ryuji san. Be happy with that.
Tumblr media
You know it.
Oracle: This calls for a celebration!
Tumblr media
After-party at Leblanc! Sojiro, let’s get a turkey.
Tumblr media
Now hold it! I don’t think it’s big enough to fit us all.
Oracle: In that case... 
Tumblr media
Let’s pull our funds and get some sushi!
Diego: (really happy) I can get on board with that.
Fox: That could be hard. I’m low on cash at the moment.
Skull: Let me guess, art supplies?
Tumblr media
Pretty much.
Harry: I’m rich. I can get the sushi.
Stark: I better pitch in, too. I still remember from what happened the last time I had some.
Bruno: I doubt you’ll be attacked this time.
Tumblr media
I’m not going to ask what that means.
>We begin to make our way to the exit. I notice that the dressing room used by Sankishi. I hear voices in there. I couldn’t help buy listen.
Randy: Hey, Ren, you coming?
Joker: ... My shoelace came undone. You go, I’ll catch up.
Flash: Alright, but hurry up. I really want to taste that sushi.
Diego: I want some sushi, too... But I’ll stay behind and help.
>With that, the rest of the groups leaves while me and Diego stay.
Diego: What’s up, Joker?
Joker: I thought I heard something in Sankishi’s dressing room. I’m very suspicious.
Diego: Alright. I’ll see what I can do.
>Diego changes back to Morgana form and sneaks into the room. I access his collar cam with my phone... I was a little shocked.
Shido: Is that any way to talk to an old friend? Or even a fan?
Haruto: We’re not friends. But we still accept you as a fan.
Susa: And after knowing your secret, I doubt we’ll be friends now.
Ichika: Sorry. Guess stuff like this just happens.
Shido: I merely come here to congratulate you, and this is how you treat me? ... After everything I’ve done for D-Four?
Haruto: Tch! Don’t remind us. I’m surprised we’re still going after what happened with the Phantom Thieves... And what you did to your son?
>Shido, his face full of fury, bashes his fist against a mirror, shattering it.
Tumblr media
Listen and listen well, you fucking, ungrateful fools! If it weren’t for me, D-Four Productions and you would have lost everything. The three of you would be out of a job. Your little proteges would be out of a job...
Tumblr media
So I suggest you be a little more nicer.
Haruto: (looking down) ...
>Morgana returns to me and changes back to Diego. Just then, Shido walks out and notices us.
Tumblr media
Can I help you two?
Tumblr media
Well...
Shido: (staring at me) You look... familiar.
?????: I see you’ve met my new intern.
>I look up to see Tony Stark and Yuto coming up.
Shido: (unconvinced) Really? I don’t see someone like you hiring someone like him, Stark. What is this about?
Stark: (firm) It’s exactly as I said. Now if you don’t mind, I was about to treat my intern and his friend to sushi. So if you’re not too busy, you’re welcome to join us.
Shido: ... I’m due back at the Wilton. See you on Wednesday.
>With that, he leaves.
Yuto: We better go. Everyone’s waiting.
>So, we leave.
Tumblr media
>The sushi restaurant in Ginza. While everyone partied, Stark and Yuto spirited me and Diego to a stall.
Yuto: How much did you hear?
Joker: A lot. What was that about?
Yuto: As most people probably don’t know, but there was a time D-Four Productions almost ceased to exist.
Diego: (a bit surprised) Really? What happened?
Yuto: ... Calystegia.
Joker: The song by Kanamin Kitchen originally written by deceased idol, Yuko Osada?
Yuto: Yes.When they sang it at the Love Meets Bonds Festival, their popularity skyrocketed... And they totally forgot about the Dream Festival. Only about 250 people showed up.
Diego: That’s harsh.
Yuto: With everyone so focused on Kanamin Kitchen, who works for Takura Productions, sales for D-Four were dropping. If that kept going on, many idol groups would have to be let go. Sankishi included. Even Amuse, Lantis and Bandai Namco, the companies that birthed D-Four, would have severed their ties with them to avoid being dragged down. Then, they would have filed for bankruptcy and their only salvation is to be bought out. Mostly likely their competitor, Takura Productions, or an overseas company, like Apollon Media.
Joker: Why would Apollon be interested in the Dream Festival?
Yuto: I don’t know. And I don’t care to find out. Anyway, Masayoshi Shido, who was already a major and well believed politician and a big fan of Sankishi, bailed them out by raising their popularity back up by showing his support. As a result, the next Dream Festival... The same Dream Festival KUROFUNE and DearDream first appeared, was a huge success.
Diego: So you owe him?
Yuto: Well, that’s what Shido thought. After his heart was changed by yo- The Phantom Thieves, our deal with him was over... But D-Four itself wasn’t.
Stark: Yeah, you’re welcome.
Tumblr media
You helped them, Mr. Stark?
Stark: I got curious about why Shido loved Sankishi. So I listened to their songs... And I truly understood why they are famous for the night of a million cheers... That, and I was curious how the Dream FES System worked. Or even where it came from. So, I bought D-Four Productions. Now they’re members of the Stark International Family and those other companies didn’t have to sever their ties.
Diego: That’s quite generous of you, Mr. Stark.
Stark: Yeah, well, I still want to know more about the System... Maybe another time. Anyway, I wouldn’t worry about Shido now. But just to be sure, we’ll keep an eye on him.
Yuto: And Ren, Diego, about what we just told you...
Diego: It’s our little secret.
Yuto: (happy) Thank you.
Joker: And than you for keeping D-Four open, Mr. Stark. It means a lot to Ryuji.
Stark: You can thank me by not calling me Mr. Stark. Just call me Tony.
Joker: I don’t think we can do that.
Stark: Why not?
Tumblr media
For starters, we already know a CEO named Tony.
Stark: I see... But for the record, I’m a way better Tony than that skate punk.
>I smile a bit. And we rejoin the others.

Persona teams as ultimates/shsl students, as if they were danganronpa characters (i dont know the 1&2 casts well enough so sorry for most of their exclusions)
3:
Junpei: shsl baseball player (unlike leon he actually wants to be associated with his baseball talent)
Yukari: shsl archer
Akihiko: shsl boxer
Mitsuru: shsl heiress
Aigis: shsl robot (but unlike kiibo shes made for fighting)
Shinjiro: shsl cook (not that he would ever admit it)
Minato/Makoto: shsl weapons expert (hes not sure how that happened. I chose this because he can use all the weapon types in game. He’d probably say his talent isnt accurate because he can use them but he doesn’t really know a lot about them)
Ken isn’t in high school & Koromaru is a dog so…
4:
Chie: shsl kung fu artist
Yukiko: shsl inn manager (which she argues with since she isnt the manager yet)
Kanji: shsl knitter 
Rise: shsl idol
Teddie: shsl mascot
Naoto: shsl detective (you saw this comming dont lie)
Yu: shsl counselor (hes really good at listening to people and helping them through things)
5:
Ryuji: shsl track star (…. Kamoshida doesnt exist in this au)
Ann: shsl model
Yusuke: shsl painter
Makoto: shsl student counsel president (dr has had weirder/more specific talents)
Futaba: shsl hacker
Haru: shsl gardener ( she has less if an input in her company compared to Mitsuru, and clearly has a passion for plants)
Ren: criminal shsl assistant (just think about how many of his confidants are people he works for in some way) OR deal maker (confidants start out more like contracts than social links ever did)
Akechi: claims to be detective, but is actually shsl hitman(? Something like that)
Morgana is cat
Bonus:
Jun: shsl botanist (or something associated with flowers)
Mishima:  shsl website admin
Eikichi: shsl band leader
Tatsuya. - shsl motercycle impersonater
Minako/Hamuko/FeMC: shsl moral support (because shes enthusiastic/good at keeping moral up. ) 
Rei: shsl food eating champion
Hifumi: shsl shogi player
Note: i didnt want to make any of the leaders "shsl leader" but if i had to, of the three from 3, 4, & 5, it would be Yu due to him most actively making choices for the group. Since the 5 cast make unanimous decisions for the most part, and in 3 you’re basically forced into the role, anyway.
also i sat here for a very long time and couldn’t for the life of me thing of a title for Yosuke.

☕️ yukari and also yuyuko and maybe even yukari and yuyuko :o
my opinion of both is that they are the greatest touhous to ever milf. like with reimu (or honestly, like with just about any touhou ever), i could go on about all sorts of things about why i like em, but for this ask, uuuh...
Well, Yukari, its kinda funny for me to think about projecting or finding something relatable to the supposed most youkai-like youkai, a creature who is enigmatic and mysterious to other enigmatic and mysterious creatures, but I really do. Part of that is her whole thing as sage and gensokyo’s guardian/admin/gardener. She does everything in her power to save and protect the fantastical and mythical from being forgotten, while having the most disagreeable personality possible. Like i absolutely believed then early on in gensokyo’s formation, when she was looking for weak and helpelss youkai to invite, even though she just sincerely wants to help bring them to paradise, she chooses to do so by taunting them about their existential and sorry state. So i like her as this objectively altruistic force that's still unambiguously a terrifying (or annoying) multi-eyed horror.
....thaaaat said, Yukari’s relationship with Yuyuko, is also something i like a lot, and maybe something I peer at with more of a dark tinge than most. For sure, in present, they are super in love and have been for like forever, but nothing can be so simple when dealing with a ghost and a dimension monster :0!
So the way it goes as most fans (including me) say it does is that yukari got to know yuyuko when the latter was alive, and they got really close but yuyuko took her own life, and sometime after, yukari does the thing which made yuyuko into the super ghost she is now.
All sorts of emotions went into the process, no doubt, anything from Yukari wanting to give Yuyuko a second lease at life, to wanting to grant Yuyuko some wish of wanting to live in peace....
...But i think the biggest thing, that was at the back of Yukari’s mind at the time and in the present, is how Yukari felt hurt by Yuyuko ‘betraying’ her like that, and so Yukari did what she did as a form of revenge. I do believe necromancing a loved one back to life works best as a spur of the moment thing of driven by intense, not-all-positive emotions!
Adding on to that, I think Yuyuko is definitely aware of those emtions behind Yukari (though she probably like, forgets and then re-remembers every now and then), but is like totally fine and content with it, which maybe seems kinda boring but I like to imagine Yuyuko sometimes making an offhand snark at Yukari being possessive or something with the above as an example, thinking its just an amusing thing they can laugh about, but Yukari just goes pale and >_> every time.
anyway I like them both and i like this ship because its got this really personal horror element to it but can be/ is also just genuinely really sweet and intense mutual understanding of these two ageless beings.

What do you feel it is that ultimately divides Yukari, Kasen, and Okina as Sages of Gensokyo? (i.e. their philosophy, their intentions for Gensokyo, etc?) Also, what roles do you feel each one of them played in its creation?
I’ve more or less covered this across multiple previous posts, but here:
Yukari: The gardener. Gensokyo is her garden and she wants it to be just perfect. However, she knows that ultimately she can’t directly control the growth of the plants, so she leaves things lying around the garden to direct their path. She’s willing to prune branches if necessary. Her goal, as mentioned, is to direct things towards some perfect end-state or cycle and keep it like that as long as possible. It’s unclear what that end-state is.
She is probably directly responsible for the creation and upkeep of the Great Hakurei Barrier.
Okina: The admin. She just wants things to work properly. She seems fairly hands-off regarding the precise goings-on in Gensoyko and spends most her time in the background, keeping the systems running. Until very recently anyway. We don’t yet know all that much about her relative to the other two, but I’d imagine she thinks of Gensokyo as primarily a means to an end. Preserve fantasy by whatever means necessary. If they happen to create something self-sustaining that doesn’t need sages, well, that’s fine too.
Her powers allow her to regulate lifeforce and spirit, however that works. I assume this is necessary in the same sense that regulating the flow of air and water is in a space shuttle: the closed space makes imbalances much more dangerous. She probably had to work overtime during the Spring Snow Incident.
Kasen: The philosopher. She’s concerned primarily with ethics. What is the right course of action? Not necessarily the most beneficial or most efficient. It sounds like she’s been gone for a while and only recently returned to see what had become of their experiment. And to her, that’s what Gensokyo is: an experiment. She has no ideological stake in its continuing existence, and she seems increasingly convinced that it was a failure. Maybe it’s time to tear it all down and find something better. I also can’t help but feel that she was somewhat against the idea from the beginning but was convinced to give it a shot. She’s the evil sage, from a certain perspective.
It’s not at all clear how talking to animals would help, but given that she has some connection with dragons I suppose it’s possible that she negotiated with the Dragon God. Also, as a hermit she has some experience with creating small artificial worlds.

Hello everyone, this is a quick RECAP on how investigations work sense it’s been a while sense our last one and some new peeps have joined since then!
Search the area for clues ! You can message us though the IM-
Just ask things like ‘I’m checking out X area’ or ‘Is something up with X item?’ - we’ll let you know whether or not you find anything relevant to the case, or hint you in the right direction !
Feel free to poke around at the body - who knows, you might find something odd.
Let us know about your muse’s alibis ! If your muse was at X location at X time, we can let you know if there was anything or anyone of note that they may have seen !
For that matter - ask other muses about their own alibis, see where anyone else was at any point in time ! (Ask though, don’t push - the trials will take care of that.)
Anything you find out is up to you to share with other peeps - you can reveal evidence and information to other muses at your own muse’s personal digression.
Evidence tends to get found pretty quickly - so take this time to start theorizing and looking for dots to connect, so that you don’t wind up going into the trial blind !
TAKE ALL THE TIME YOU NEED TO INVESTIGATE, WE AREN’T IN ANY RUSH REALLY. 
We, the admins, will help you out to the best of our ability, within our limits - We can only give solid evidence - our own thoughts on it won’t count !
Yukari will refrain from answering any IC questions until the trial ( where’s the fun if she gives you all the answers right off the bat ? ), though she may occasionally make idle commentary to help keep you guys along the right track.

“Oath” | Uesugi Kenshin
Uesugi Kenshin x Historian!MC. 2nd Promise.
"Where is [Name]? Her breakfast won't stay warm forever." Kenshin remarked as he glared at the untouched food across the table from him.
It was rare of the Uesugi lord to have breakfast with his allies and vassals, but today was an exception. After a night of drinking away, the sun had risen to represent a new day and to end the banquet held in [Name]'s honor.
"Who knows? Maybe she decided to sleep in today." Yukimura commented as he tried massaging his headache from last night's party. Drinking with both Kenshin and Shingen was a fatal mistake, and he was learning to deal with the consequences now.
"Let our lovely goddess catch some rest for her beauty then. She needs it." Shingen stated as he picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.
"That can't be true. I sent a maid to go fetch her for breakfast, yet the maid hasn't returned." Kenshin brought up as he cast a glance at Sasuke, wondering why his ninja had been quiet for quite some time.
Little did Kenshin know that Sasuke had intervened earlier and suggested to the maid that he would go fetch [Name] himself instead. Of course, he already knew that she had set out for her journey to Azuchi and wouldn't be here at all. He just wanted to continue [Name]’s cover and buy her some more time.
"Perhaps she insisted on sleeping in," Sasuke spoke, hoping that Kenshin would buy into the idea and no longer question it.
"No, I won't allow for this sort of defiance in this castle. [Name] may be a woman, but she will become one of my official vassals soon. I expect her to obey the orders of her lord." Kenshin declared as he stood up and prepared to go find [Name].
Internally panicking, Sasuke was worried that if Kenshin knew the truth, [Name] would be in even bigger trouble. Deciding to distract his lord, Sasuke quickly stood up and moved right in front of Kenshin before he could reach the sliding door.
"Wait, Kenshin-sama. It might be rude to enter a lady's room without permission. You'll most likely be able to see her again sometime during the day when she isn't busy." Sasuke reasoned.
"If you want to live, then move, Sasuke. I don't have time for your nonsense. As the lord of this castle, I will do what I desire." Kenshin reminded as he placed a hand on the handle of his katana.
But before Sasuke could distract his lord even further, Kenshin unsheathed his katana and attempted to swing at Sasuke, intending to push his ninja back at a distance in order to let him escape and find [Name] on his own. Once he saw that Sasuke had jumped back as he had planned, Kenshin smirked at Sasuke and ran out of the room, knowing that the chase was on before they could ever dream of stopping him.
"Wait, Kenshin-sama!" Sasuke called out from behind. Kenshin could see that Yukimura and Shingen had also followed him out of the room, but he didn't care. All he wanted to do was to find [Name].
As he reached her room, Kenshin wasted no time in opening up her shoji screen doors and glancing over at her futon. But as he stepped inside to get a closer look, he saw that the room was empty. There was no sign of her anywhere.
"Where is she?" Kenshin yelled out in a booming loud voice.
"She's not here. Maybe she's somewhere else around the castle." Yukimura concluded once he finally caught up to everyone all while clutching his aching head.
"I want a thorough search for [Name]. Leave no stone unturned or room unchecked. Send out my orders to every maid and vassal now!" Kenshin commanded as he turned to them with fire in his eyes.
"Kenshin, don't you think you're being a little outrageous for [Name]? She could simply be somewhere around here. There's no need for a thorough search just to flag her down." Shingen announced as he crossed his arms.
"Ah, if I can recall this correctly, I believe [Name] is not even here in the castle. She embarked earlier on a journey to Azuchi, but I remember her saying that she would be back in a few days. She's there for reconnaissance, much like what Yukimura would do when he's there." Sasuke revealed, hoping that this would relieve Kenshin or lighten up his mood.
But if looks could kill, Sasuke was sure he would have been stabbed with the icicles forming in Kenshin's eyes. It was clear that his little white lie would not fool Kenshin.
"I don't recall making her a member of my Nokizaru or ordering her to do spy work for me in Azuchi. Since she never asked for my permission to leave, are you suggesting she left on her own accord without letting her own lord know?" Kenshin inquired grimly.
"She may have not given you a two-weeks notice of her leave, but she has no reason to betray you, Kenshin-sama. She owes her life to you for being kind enough to house her in your castle and giving her the freedom of an Uesugi princess and scholar. She would never do anything to revoke it." Sasuke uttered with determination.
"Nonetheless, she left me without warning. I won't allow this to happen. Sasuke, fetch me my horse. We leave now for Azuchi." Kenshin declared with the flip of his black cloak.
"You're leaving for Azuchi now? Why don't you just wait for her to return? Sasuke could be right, and we could get more information if our princess is truly on a reconnaissance mission." Shingen said as he watched Kenshin leave [Name]'s room.
"She won't make it alive if she meets bandits along the way. She may be intelligent, but certainly weak in terms of fighting. I won't lose her so easily. That's why I'm coming after her." Kenshin replied as he walked away.
"There he goes again with an excuse. Acting before thinking. Sasuke, you better go after him and watch out for him. He sounds reckless right now." Yukimura muttered as he looked over at his friend.
"I'm not too concerned about Kenshin-sama. I'm more worried about [Name]. Well then, I'll be off." Sasuke answered as he bowed down to them respectively before taking his leave.
"If only Kenshin was honest with his feelings for her. Maybe she'd confide in him more about her little trips if they were closer." Shingen muttered with a sigh as he and Yukimura left to go back and finish their breakfast.
"Do you think he has some hidden feelings for her? It sounds like he's only possessive of his potential war weapon." Yukimura said, remembering their conversation with Kenshin from last night.
"It may appear that way, but I think it's something deeper for Kenshin. She's no ordinary woman, and Kenshin knows that. Yet he can't help but feel attracted to her qualities too. It's the start of a relationship that he may want to pursue, but doesn't know about yet." Shingen answered.
"Jeez, this is so troublesome. Love sounds complicated and tedious." Yukimura remarked as he rolled his eyes.
"But that's what it is sometimes, Yuki. It's the art of love and war. They are alike in many ways." Shingen commented as he ruffled Yukimura's hair.
“Well, it sounds like it will be two fronts that [Name] will find herself battling in then. If she could even win them in the first place,” Yukimura confirmed quietly.
Meanwhile, [Name] was leading the horse that she had borrowed from the Uesugi clan down to a lake to have it drink some water. It had been a few hours since she left Echigo, but she was on her way to Mino. It wouldn't be long before she reached Omi to where Azuchi’s castle town was located.
Opening up her journal, [Name] decided to finish writing down the events of last night’s banquet even though she had left earlier for bed. Even though this timeline was an alternate compared to the one she knew, she figured it may be still important to keep note of it. After all, what woman in this time had the honor to have a banquet held in their name?
Lost in her thoughts, [Name] didn't even notice the presence of another creature until it meowed softly at her side.
“Ahh!!” she screamed as she scurried away from it and frightened her horse.
But the calico cat was persistent in receiving attention from her and didn't bother to scram. Instead, it approached her again and moved closer to her. By then, [Name] couldn't help but grimace at the fact that she was scared by a little cat.
“Jeez, you're just a cat. But what are you doing out here? Shouldn't you be in a nearby village somewhere?” [Name] asked as she picked it up and placed it in lap, petting it softly and hearing the cat purr in response.
“Mike, there you are! You ran off without warning and-”
But before the man could finish his sentence, [Name] looked back and was surprised to see him dressed in Buddhist robes and carrying a staff. A scar ran down his face but his charcoal eyes expressed concern and warmth.
But hadn't she seen him somewhere before?
“Oh! Is this your cat? I'm sorry, he approached me first and I didn't know he belonged to someone.” [Name] said as she picked up Mike and brought him over to the man.
“Mike ran off suddenly and I came to find him. Thank you for returning him.” the man replied, though he kept his eyes on [Name] as if she was someone he was familiar with too.
“It's no problem. Have a wonderful day!” [Name] replied swiftly as she turned away from him. It had finally occurred to her who this man was. He was Kennyo, the Buddhist monk that had gone rogue and attempted to take Oda Nobunaga’s life at Honno-ji. If it wasn't for her interference that night, she was sure that Nobunaga would have been killed.
“Wait.” Kennyo ordered in a deep growl.
[Name] couldn't help but freeze in her steps, and her heart was beating erratically as she heard Kennyo walk towards her.
“What's your name, young miss?”
“Umm, it's Mai. And yours?”
“Kennyo.”
“Kennyo. I see. Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, but if you'll excuse me, I have to get going to meet up with my brother. He's waiting for me in Mino.”
“Is that so? Then I wish you safe travels, young miss.”
“Thank you, you too.” [Name] replied before walking away and getting back on her horse. She would be lying if she said that she wasn't internally screaming during her entire conversation with Kennyo. It was a close call too. Had Kennyo figured out who she truly was, she may have been in big trouble.
As Kennyo watched her ride away, he figured that perhaps she wasn't the one he met on that fateful night. She was still out there somewhere, but he was sure he would have the chance to cross paths with her again. After all, he had some unfinished business with that woman thanks to her interference for saving Nobunaga.
Night had fallen by the time Kennyo returned to his hut in the forest. It was one of those nights where he had to meet up with one of his spies and sit down to hear of any news.
“The Oda forces seem to be looking for the girl who saved Oda Nobunaga’s life in Honno-ji. They've expressed an interest in finding her, and there's even award for anyone who knows who and where she is. So far the search seems unsuccessful, but it has given the people an incentive to keep on the lookout for her.” the spy revealed lowly.
“That devil king...using power for his own selfish desires. If this girl is potentially precious to him, perhaps we can use her against him. This could be our chance to have Nobunaga in our hands once and for all.” Kennyo surmised.
“Shall we be on the lookout as well, Abbot?”
“Yes, we must look for her too. That way we can-” but Kennyo stopped mid-sentence as he remembered the girl he met from earlier. He had doubted his beliefs, but now that he had time to make the connection, perhaps it was her.
“I know who she is, and she's headed for Omi.” Kennyo suddenly spoke.
“You do? Then we’ll work out the details now and plan to find her there. If we can capture her successfully, we can avenge the deaths of our brothers in no time.”
“It won’t be easy capturing her if the Oda forces are after her too. We have to make sure that we reach her before they do. Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you. We must find her at all costs.” Kennyo reaffirmed with a dark tone.
As the night grew long, so did the plans for [Name]’s capture. It wouldn’t be long before she, an ordinary historian from modern times, would be the most sought out person in various power circles of Japan’s finest warlords.
End of 2nd Promise.

A Word of Advice.
Good evening chatelaines,
We see that there’s an appreciation chain post going around the ikesen fandom, and Admin Toreishi and I have noted the sentiment and thank those who have tagged our blog in it. But we also briefly talked about this and I have decided to share some insight with you all.
To content creators (writers, artists, meme creators, etc.), it’s more meaningful to them if you drop a comment on their creation and let them know what you liked about it, your thoughts/feelings on it, etc. It really does motivate us when we read these lovely comments and receive good feedback from our followers/fans/readers/etc. This is our craft that we work on and polish, and we appreciate it when people can admire it and let us know.
However, things such as “please update” or hurtful words aimed at the content creator aren’t really a great starting point to keep content creators around in a fandom. Always be mindful of content creators and their time. If you enjoy what you see, feel free to leave a nice comment or like the post. It’s free of charge and keeps everyone happy.
With that said, we hope you all will understand a little bit better and spread the love for content creators in a more productive and efficient way. It’s not that tagging content creators in appreciation posts is wrong/bad. We just want to remind you all of simple things you can do in the fandom to keep your content creators active and here. Fandoms aren’t forever and people come and go. I hope this advice reaches out to many of you.
-Admin Yukari

[Please do not steal/repost/claim my photos!!!]
Here’s a look of CYBIRD’s booth this year at AX as well as some of the merch I bought from this year. Ladies and gents, I kid you not, I spent probably at least $400 throughout the entire week. But it was fun and amazing to meet other fans and it seems like Ikemen Vampire is quite popular (more so than IkeRev) this year! I’m curious how next year will be?
Some highlights from AX:
Kabedon with Hiroto! I didn’t think I would do it because I always thought it was cheesy, but it was actually quite fun and Hiroto was super sweet and gentle. His contacts and shimmery eyeshadow was pretty to look at while he pushed me back to the wall haha. My sisters couldn’t stop gushing about their experiences too.
This year, CYBIRD gave away ikevamp bags to fans if they subscribed to Aimu Sora’s YouTube channel. On the bag, I had to laugh at the pun they used: “This Game Sucks.” LOL
God, I had no luck pulling Kenshin except for his button. My sisters actually had the lucky touch! However, they were able to pull their favorites with no problem. (Now we have a lot of Yukimura and Mitsunari merch.)
Autograph signing with Utako-sensei! She’s such a lovely woman and I’m so happy that I was able to meet her because she’s the illustrator for B-Project and Aimu Sora! If you haven’t already followed Aimu Sora on YouTube, you should! Her autograph tickets sold out in less than 20 minutes at the booth so I’m glad I was able to snatch one for myself immediately.
Wow! AX attendees are super nice and helpful. I made lots of friends and shared lots of amazing moments with people. Thank you to everyone who approached me for badge trades! You’re all so lovely to interact with and I hope we meet again!
Any Ouran High School Host Club fans? Well, the mangaka, Bisco Hatori, made her first overseas appearance and held a panel for AX attendees! Never in a million years did I think I would see her in person! She’s such a wonderful woman and passionate about her works. I’m so honored to have seen and hear about her process for writing her series. I bought her special edition volume 1 of OHSHC since it was an exclusive. It was so hard to obtain it too. It sold out every day through Viz Media.
CYBIRD’s booth was bigger this year but super crowded on the last day. Even Hiroto and the EN team were shocked by the huge crowd gathering for the stand giveaways.
So many cool cosplayers! I saw a really amazing Masamune, Ieyasu, Hideyoshi, Sasuke, and Mitsuhide cosplay! I’m sad I couldn’t snag photos with them but it’s okay! They were still awesome to see.
CYBIRD fans are crazy ;;; On Day 4, all of the IkeSen and IkeVamp acrylic stands were sold out along with the ikesen buttons. There is a lot of dedication.
Haha, I decided to join the Trivia Game this year and no one knew much about IkeRev ; u ; IkeSen was the go to, but even then, it was a little challenging!
Shoutout to Hiroto for being so amazing and doing last minute autographs for my sisters! He’s a super busy man, but he truly cares for the players and fans.
On the last day, Hiroto came out wearing his Aimu Sora cosplay! He looked super cute as Sora! It definitely fit his style. I’m excited for what he will do as Sora in the future!
No announcement for Ikemen Live like I initially thought! Another game called A3! will be coming out instead, so please look forward to the game this year.
Overall, my experience at AX was better this year and I enjoyed it to the fullest. Hiroto and his team do so many wonderful things, guys. You don’t even know how much work he puts to please us, the players. Yasmin, another EN team member, commented that Hiroto would stay at the office super late until like 1 AM just to plan for things and see it through. It’s no wonder that he always tends to fall ill during AX. He works himself to the bone for us. He already has ideas for next year too and it boggles my mind to even imagine him already thinking about next year. So please, give your support to CYBIRD and thank them for their hard work. It’s super important that we all understand how much is being put into these games. Until next time!

Character Analysis: Mitsuhide
Warning: Spoilers ahead.
It’s pretty long so I threw this whole post under a cut. This is my personal views on Mitsuhide. You are free to disagree with me. I’m still getting to know him and how he really is. I thought I’d share my thoughts on Mitsuhide since his route is coming out soon.
I was rereading an old post in regards to Mitsuhide's personality. Admin Yukari always tells me that she can't stan Mitsuhide because she dislikes his teasing whereas I have already grown used to it. It honestly does not bother me anymore. One thing to keep in mind is that Mitsuhide teases as a form of affection, and in regards to MC, it's how he shows his love for her. He likes her open and honest expressions. If MC stopped reciprocating his teasing, I think Mitsuhide would legitimately begin to worry. Spoiler for his upcoming birthday story, but at this point, MC does not mind his teasing anymore. On the contrary, she looks forward to it. And as Mitsuhide explained to Princess Tsubaki in the latest event, it's normal for him and MC to constantly "bicker" with one another. When MC thinks it's "impossible" to be with Mitsuhide, he always responds with "If you say it's impossible, doesn't it make you want to be more mean?" To put it simply, he wants to tease her some more.
Of course, teasing isn't the only facet to Mitsuhide's character. As he has stated before, he is constantly working in the background. He seems to have his own agenda while serving Nobunaga. Rest assured, it's always to his lord's benefit. What Mitsuhide's goals/ambitions are have yet to be explained, however. From the small glimpses we've had, he views himself as nothing more than a tool of war. He carries out his work efficiently while remaining aware that he can die at any given time. I like to think Mitsuhide embraces death in his own way, but almost like an afterthought. If it happens, it happens. There's no fear or regret. However, MC perceives a sadness in him that she can't quite figure out just yet. Unlike Kenshin, Mitsuhide does not invoke angst but rather a deep, undescribable sadness. I feel like a lot of it has to do with his distancing with those he feels close to.
We've seen it before. Mitsuhide has no qualms in tarnishing his reputation with the general public if it means protecting those he cares about. And the last thing he wants to do is hurt MC in any shape or form. While he lives to tease her, he still is careful not to project his emotions around her getting defensive when MC begings to pry a little too much for his liking. He doesn't like being the center of attention, and would much rather be away from the spotlight prefering to stand in the shadows instead.
Mitsuhide is not just considerate of MC, but of his allies. We've seen him helping from the sidelines more than once. He, too, can get jealous, though. During the Christmas event last year, he wouldn't stop commenting about MC wearing Hideyoshi's haori even when she explained about forgetting her own coat at the castle. Instead, Mitsuhide takes MC to a kimono shop and buys her a beautiful scarf to keep her warm. We see him lamenting the fact that he can't be with her in Hideyoshi's route, but is still happy for the two and wishes them well in their life together.
In Sasuke's route, I was introduced to a new side of Mitsuhide. He's raised suspicion and unease in me in previous routes. Mitsuhide made me feel fear in Sasuke's route. He flung a blade into the ceiling narrowly missing Sasuke who was hiding above, and dragged MC by her arm out of the audience hall threatening to harm her if Sasuke did not appear. He chases Sasuke and MC all over Azuchi without relent dead set in shooting them down. He almost succeded had Sasuke not fooled Mitsuhide with a dummy. Even Mitsuhide laughed at the fact which made him seem all the more chilling to me. However, he won my admiration later in the story when he teamed up with Hideyoshi as they faced off a group of Kennyo's men.
After Mitsunari's route and working my way through Sasuke's route, I began to focus more on Mitsuhide because I desired to get to know him better. To be honest, I am dying to play his route. I try my luck in every event he is in hoping to gleam more of Mitsuhide's personality. That sadness that MC sees in him has me at the edge of my seat wondering what it could all be about. The small snippets we've gotten from his route has me so pumped up ready to delve into his story.
I've been told my portrayal of Mitsuhide is so good, and while it brings me relief, I can't help but think that I can do better. Still, in fanfiction, you're free to do as you want. Want a soft Mitsuhide? Write it. Want a horny Mitsuhide? Write it. Want angsty Mitsuhide? Write it. How we choose to portray Mitsuhide in fanfiction is up to us. And the same goes for the rest of the warlords.
I write Mitsuhide from what has been shown to me in the handful of event stories and routes I had the luck of reading. I may be forgetting some things, but this is just about all I have learned in regards to Mitsuhide so far. We're all entitled to our likes and dislikes, and this is not a plight to get Mitsuhide more fans. Honestly, I don't even know why I started going after Mitsuhide when Nobunaga is supposedly my #1 favorite. Anyways, how you choose to view Mitsuhide is up to you. Whether you like him or not, stan him or don't stan him, love him or hate him, we are all right. Like, I'm still struggling with Kennyo, and he's the last warlord on the list. I don't like Motonari, but I'm still going to embrace him. So, you know, to each their own.

So, to preface my question, I just recently discovered otome games and I've been hooked on them for the past few months. After I realized how much I liked ikemen sengoku, I decided to branch out. Problem is I have little to no way of meeting other fans in person. Im 21 and I work as a battle tower secretary. All my friends are law students and my coworkers are all middle-aged. So my question is; whats the best way to make friends online with other otome addicts? Oh, and i love your blog! -Vic
Hey! Welcome to the otome game world! We hope you enjoy your stay! 
In the honest truth, the best way to make friends online is to probably just reach out to people first. You can follow people, shoot them a message, and maybe try to strike up a convo from there. Making friends online or in real life still requires you to make a connection with that person and you need to put in the effort to develop it into something deeper. After all, it takes two to tango, right? But of course, since this is the Internet, remember to be wary of how much info you’re sharing with someone else and be safe too! You never really know who you’re talking to when it’s the Internet.
I know that there are discord servers for specific games like Ikemen Sengoku and Mr Love: Queen’s Choice. There are tons of Facebook groups that you can join too. Just keep your eye out for people who are promoting them and ask to join! Or look them up too.
Sometimes if you’re a content creator (writer, artist, etc.) or you make original posts on your Tumblr blog, you’ll have some interaction with your followers or fellow content creators about a series you like too. It’s not a guarantee that everyone will be your friend, but at least you’ve immersed yourself within the community/fandom and can hopefully enjoy your experience from there.
And sometimes trying to make new online friends may not always be successful just like in real life, but that’s okay! This is just the Internet. There are a lot of ways that friendships can develop, so this isn’t the only place. I hope this helps!

hey yukari, did you hear that there is going to be a disney rhythm game with art done by the artist for kurotsuji? ikesen!masa’s va is in it too. i can’t remember the name but if you look it up i’m sure you’ll find it. gomenasai for forgetting!
YOOOO Yes! I did hear about Twisted Wonderland! I’m a huge fan of Disney, Kuroshitsuji, and Yana Toboso’s artwork so you can imagine me screaming with joy with my sisters when I saw the tweets from JP Disney, Yana Toboso, and Kato Kazuki haha. It’s like the strange combination that you would never expect to see in a lifetime?
Toboso-sensei’s art is stunning and never ceases to amaze me. I’ve read Kuroshitsuji since I was like…13? And I turn 21 in June, so it’s been about 8 years since I’ve stuck around for her series (but it’s worth it, she has my loyalty.) Toboso-sensei’s such a busy person too! I’m honestly surprised to see her carry on with a new project and working under Disney, but I’m rooting for her! 
I love that Kato Kazuki was also chosen to voice the main character, Maleus Draconia (Doesn’t he look strikingly close to Sebastian Michaelis?). I’m excited to see who else will be involved in the game! I saw that Natsuki Hanae (Jonah Clemence’s seiyuu from IkeRev) was also revealed in the cast when the character designs for the “Hearts Labyul” dormitory were released. (Haha, it’s like Hanae-san can’t escape from “Queen of Hearts” characters!)
Tumblr media
Either way, I’m looking forward to Twisted Wonderland. Cheer Toboso-sensei and Kato-san on with me! Thanks for the chit-chat! :)
