5 + 1 Fic Friday Roundup: On Campus

One of the things that April is an awareness month for is community college. So, have some fanfic with student//teacher characters or a school setting.

Mahogany (AO3) - "Shepard and squaddies are students at the elite Galactic Training Academy. (Think Starfleet meets Hogwarts. In space.) Reapers have been dead for hundreds of years, but there are still plenty of baddies out in the galaxy. Shepard-in-training rises to the occasion, with the aid of her squad and a certain snarky flight student. Currently Rated M for language and mature situations."

The Night Will Come but Not to Stay (AO3) - "Jazz is excited about going to Gotham University for college. It's halfway across the country from Amity Park and anyone who knows about her weird family or ghost nonsense. Finally, she can pretend to be a normal woman who just wants to go into psychiatry. She meets a cute guy named Jason, and they seem to be getting along great."

Form 23-C: Application for a New Roommate (AO3) - "After battling ninjas, aliens, madmen, mafiosos, other heroes and death itself, Jason was about to face his most unknown foe yet: a normal life. It's fine. He'd always dreamed of going to college and for once reality sort of lived up to expectations. He loves the classes, he can handle the workload and his cases too. His roommate is a total douche, but whatever. Jason's fine, he's got this. Then he meets his roommate's brother. Jason totally doesn't have this."

Holy Romantic Overtures, Batman! (AO3) - "After the heist of a lifetime, henchman!Jason decides to go legit and enrolls in college. The last person he expected to see there was Robin, and he certainly didn’t expect to fall for him either. But somehow it all works out. Maybe it’s all the labels?"

campus cryptid vs. future valedictorian (AO3) - "Mara Glass did not care about "weird hot guy," the supposed "campus cryptid." She had heard of him her first couple years and had him pointed out to her by a classmate once, but what was there to notice? Okay, he was probably thirty, a nontraditional student, so what? There were a number of those around. Apparently he was hot--well congrats to people who were into people, they could keep him. And if you asked Mara, from her extremely objective perspective, those Disney-green eyes were doing a lot of heavy lifting. There was nothing particularly noteworthy about a thirty-something guy who didn't talk about himself to twenty-year-old classmates. He probably had, like, a real life. There were rumors he was married, although Brittany noted that the only reason people thought that was because one time someone heard him finish a phone call with, "You light the candles, I'll bring dinner. I love you." None of that was remotely interesting to Mara. He sounded like a normal person, and she wished people would shut up about him. Then in third year, she had a history class with weird hot guy."

Bonus: Scholastic Nightmare (AO3) - "Nara Sayuri, a religious studies major from a traditional household, would be hard pressed to come up with a worse nightmare. It was her first time presenting a paper at a conference and apparently her paper was so wrong that one of her ancestors - a deified ancestor, the Shikabane-hime herself - came down from the heavens specifically to point out how off base Sayuri was."

by the pricking of my thumbs, Izuna & Shikako, something about divinity and debts? Shikako inadvertently saves his life and he believes he has a new mission in life to serve the random goddess who spared his life?

Okay, here’s the thing anon, you KNOW I love burgeoning young god, divine shenanigans with Shikako. You KNOW this and are PLAYING WITH MY HEART!

But I think, given the way Izuna days and how critical he/his death are in the lingering resentment/tensions between the Uchiha and Senju, that IF Shikako is going to save his life, it wouldn’t be inadvertently. Or, the closest to “inadvertently” would be if she doesn’t realize WHOSE life she is specifically saving.

Like, here’s what I’m picturing in my head:

Tobirama does a near-fatal blow against Izuna. At this point in history, the only people who COULD heal him are Senju.

I don’t know how swiftly the battlefield is emptied, or if Madara was also in that same fight, but there might be a window of time in which no one but the (presumed) dead are on the battlefield. If, in that window, Shikako senses that one of the bodies is not dead YET then she would go in and heal said body.

When Izuna opens his eyes after being certain he was dead, the first thing he sees is the face of a goddess. His Sharingan evolves.

Izuna is the first Uchiha (in this world, at least) to gain the Shikabane-hime and Gelel techniques.

If he has anything to say about it, he will not be the last.

Then it gets into, like, sort of silly shenanigans in which Izuna is earnestly preaching about the goddess he serves who brought him back to life, and Shikako is just like. Pls, no. Pls don’t. Pls. I don’t want that. (Izuna has better persuasion checks than Shikako. Though to be fair, her DC is much higher than his)

At some point, I guess she just leans into it and is like. I MIGHT AS WELL MAKE SURE KONOHA IS BUILT PROPERLY INSTEAD OF IT BEING FULL OF SECRETS AND TENSIONS AND TRAPS THAT BITE EVERYONE IN THE ASS DECADES LATER

… I wonder what the Shikabane-hime and Gelel techniques are…

This does then get into, like… and it sucks that this is the way it’s phrased, but it literally is this: Church vs State in which Izuna is leader of the Church of Shikabane-hime and Tobirama is doing most of the legislative/administrative work for State while his brother is charismatically Hokage-ing it up elsewhere.

And, like, Tobirama is Shikako’s favorite and he is a fuinjutsu master and he is doing SO MUCH WORK FOR THE SAKE OF KONOHA, EVEN IF SOMETIMES IT HAS TERRIBLE REPERCUSSIONS IF THE WRONG PERSON TAKES HOLD OF CERTAIN ORGANIZATIONS. And she also wants to assert, again, that she is not a goddess.

Unfortunately, her status as a divine being IS the only thing Izuna and Tobirama agree on. Tobirama just doesn’t think the Church of Shikabane-hime needs it’s own Vatican-style independent district within Konoha.

“Of course the temple will be central to the design of the village,” Tobirama says, a rough sketch of what buildings need to be prioritized on top of a survey map of the land that would one day become Konoha. He says it so matter of factly that Shikako almost misses it. “What?” Shikako asks, confused. “Of course it must be the center of the village,” Izuna snaps, even though they are literally in agreement. “It must also be the tallest building in the village.” “What?” Shikako asks, concerned. “Of course,” Tobirama retorts even though, again, they are literally in agreement.

Like… Tobirama does totally believe Shikako is a goddess. So many of his techniques are god adjacent (Thunder God—both sword and Hiraishin—and then the Edo Tensei/summoning shinigami maybe) that he doesn’t mind that. He just thinks that Izuna shouldn’t be so cocky just because he saw her first and got a cool new technique because of his cheating eyes while Tobirama has to do MATH and figure out how to bend the laws of the universe via fuinjutsu in order to get a Shikabane-hime technique. It’s not fair.

Also, Konoha LITERALLY having a goddess bless/guide the creation of their village is VERY POWERFUL. So giving Izuna a separate district for the Church of Shikabane-hime instead of incorporating Shikabane-hime into Konoha's very foundations does make that good PR a little less powerful.

I’m not saying Konoha becomes a holy city. But… like… maybe?

I passed my finals and am free from the prison that they call school (for a few weeks) so time to continue my AiStars Rewrite because I am better than Bandai

(also I am prone to forgetting things so if I repeat information from the last post,,,, just be patient w/ me please 😭)

Season 1 (continued???)

Main characters as usual are Yume, Koharu, Rola, Mahiru, Ako, and Haruka Ruka

I said that S4 only had Yuzu, Yozora, and Tsubasa but we’re changing that– Lily now is also part of S4 and takes Hime’s spot since,, yk,,, Hime’s missing

Hime disappeared a while before the S4 Selection (so she was there for her second year at FSA and was in S4 for one year, but is not there for her third year when the series takes place)

Hime disappeared after an S4 concert (the same one that Yume and Koharu attend to in Episode 1 of AiStars)-- and Yume was the last person to see her (and the rainbow power was accidentally given to her here idk how just bear with me)

Anyways uhhhhh what else

Brands in the rewrite aren’t under a specific type; they don’t fall under cute, cool, sexy, pop coords specifically (so they can make coords that vary in types) and idols can choose what coord they want based on their preferred idol type

We’re deleting that one FSA rule where you can’t make a brand if you’re not in S4 because I think that’s lame and stupid and doesn’t do much for the plot anyways

So some characters still have the same brands (Lily w/ Gothic Victoria, Yozora w/ Romance Kiss, Yuzu w/ Shiny Smile) but some don’t

Ako, for example, uses a brand that’s story themed– this brand is heavily connected with a film production agency and the agency and brand correlate stories (like if the brand released an Alice in Wonderland collection, the film agency would then release a movie based on Alice in Wonderland)

I wanted to lean more into Ako’s acting side and thought this would be a good fit

Haruka Ruka uses a brand called “DECO●LOUR MY WORLD” that follows a decora and candy concept

Oh and she’s also the princess of this land called “E-Magi Nation” (pronounced “imagination”) and everyone thinks she’s putting up a persona because there’s no land called the E-Magi Nation silly! Except no she’s dead serious she’s a literal princess from the E-Magi Nation and her home palace is actually made of gingerbread and candy canes thank you for asking

Romance Kiss’ official concept says that its a “brand that travels around the world” and takes inspiration from different ethnic cultures, so I was thinking this brand would have a whole bunch of branches in different parts of the world with different top designers and such– Yozora (and later Mahiru) is the top designer of the Japan branch

The muse of Romance Kiss is in charge of representing the different cultures of the brand

The school coords in Four Star Academy also has various silhouettes rather than the typical “different tops- same skirts and shoes” pattern

Here’s an example with an Ako Star Coord I designed

(I didn’t design anyone else guys I don’t have any ideas I tried with Hime and it was a disaster so please be nice about the Ako design I tried my best)

Also people can enter the magic fitting room thingie (I forgot what its called HELP) by using their Aikatsu mobile instead of their Aikatsu pass because idk I thought it’d be cool I’m not too sure about this idea though

Lets move on from most of the plot points and go to the end of the season 1 where the S4 Selection happens because I forgot SOOOO many things!! Yay me!

In Wind Dance, Haruka Ruka loses to Yuzu (but since everyone in S4 is a third year including Yuzu, Haruka Ruka gets the spot for S4 next year)

In Bird Theatre, Ako wins the spot for S4 by beating Tsubasa

In Moon Beauty, Mahiru beats Yozora and inherits the muse position from Yozora

Its here where Yozora announces that she’s taking a hiatus from being an idol to focus on being a designer (for Romance Kiss) (guys I need reasons to get the 25th S4 Gen out of Season 2 okay bear with me)

In Flower Song, Lily wins over Rola and Yume,,, however, Rola wins over Yume and gets the S4 spot; Yume becomes Flower Song Class’ admin

TLDR: basically Rola, Ako, Mahiru, and Haruka Ruka are the 26th generation of S4 and are the S4 for Season 2, Mahiru (or Ako I’m not sure) becomes the leader for S4 and we say goodbye to our previous generation of S4

Oh and Hime shows up at the finale! But like in a super mysterious way where we know its her but no one sees her and she’s just quietly lurking and its basically a hint to her being in the next season

Season 2

Ohohohohoho here’s the fun part

OKay SO

The top idol Hime Shiratori has shown up to Four Star Academy… with the Perfect Idol Elza Forte

Idk why they’re there its probably to try to steal S4 away from FSA

Anyways Elza does her big performance and she gets her Star Wings and everyone’s in awe and she’s made her name as a perfect idol you guys know the drill

Hime says that she has returned to help her friend Elza collect perfect idols and get all the Star Wings like they’re Pokemon

And because of this, she is currently residing in Venus Ark (not as a student she just stays there as a guest of Elza’s)

The normal shenanigans happen, some Venus Ark characters get their pretty wings

Oh and later, Hime does a performance (which is her big return back to idoling (which she kinda hates), just for Elza to get her sun wings) and gets the Earth Wings

A big thing here is how Hime truly trusts Elza and wants her to achieve her dream, doing the one thing she hates (being back in the public spotlight) just so Elza can get her mom’s approval (this is important later)

But you may be wondering…. if Hime got the Earth Wings… what wings does Yume get?

LOL HAHAHA GUYS

she’s not getting any wings

(I swear I love her she’s one of my favorite characters I just gonna make her struggle… sorry)

The lineup for the wings goes like this:

Kirara has Mercury as usual

Mahiru gets Venus (guys guys calm down I know that Elza has Venus canonically but I swear I have a good reason!!!) (the good reason being that I like Mahiru and Rola together and if Rola gets Mars then Mahiru should get Venus because in mythology-)

Mahiru got her wings due to a plot point in Season 2 where she has multiple muses in Romance Kiss to show the many faces of beauty in different cultures rather than just one– she implements this officially in a festival celebrating different cultures and does a performance and BAM SPR

Hime gets Earth because it made the most sense to me

Rola gets Mars and Aria gets Jupiter, like in canon

Ako gets Saturn (I kind of pushed out Yuzu and Lily in Season 2 so that they play roles similar to Yozora and Tsubasa and Hime in the canon Season 2 of AiStars, so that Ako and Haruka Ruka can get their pretty wings)

Rei gets Uranus and Elza gets Neptune (because *mumbling* the Sailor Moon ship)

Haruka Ruka gets Pluto and her wings are made of candy because I said so

Oh and Koharu’s back! She was in France for a bit learning more about fashion and Elza took her in and now she’s a cool fashion designer who loves Venus Ark with all her heart and having the time of her life

Aria and Hime also have a sweet relationship– Hime actually meets Aria in Season 2 (rather than pre-show in AiStars), and the two connect

The main reason they connect is because they were both muses of My Little Heart. My Little Heart was Hime’s brand before she disappeared, and after she did, the whole brand was running around to pick up the pieces

They had a little reboot and got a new muse (our little fairy Aria) who became the new muse of My Little Heart

Hime is sorry for the trouble and hate that Aria received after she became the muse but Aria’s very sweet about it with her– they get along quite well because Aria sees Hime as this cool older sister and not a top idol, and Hime is truly at her calmest with Aria

Oh speaking of brands, Hime has a private brand in Season 2 to avoid the same thing that happened with My Little Heart (she’s planning to leave the spotlight again after Elza gets the Sun Wings)

We’re gonna skip a lot of plot points because.. again… I forgot a LOT of the ideas I had I should really write these down

Hime finds out that Elza was just using her the whole time and gets really really upset,,, and pulls a little revenge

Can you guys guess what it is

Lol Hime gets the Sun Dress… surprise(!!)

I know Hime is out of character here compared to canon but then again this is my rewrite and I can do whatever I want and I think she should be able to destroy a few dreams because of the betrayal she feels

And everyone was like “WOAH!! How did she do that!! Gasp!! The Sun Dress is here again??!”

So the main rival of Season 2 shifts from Elza to Hime

Uhhh skipping more plot points,,, but Yume is doing pretty great! She was kinda moping around after she didn’t get an SPR but she and Koharu made up and created a new brand called “Rainbow Berry Parfait” Yay!!

So she’s kinda vibing because her best friend is back

OH MY GOD WAIT I FORGOT TO MENTION

So at the end of Season 1, because she lost the S4 Selection and was exhausted due to the rainbow power, she took a small hiatus

She still trains a LOT, more than she used to, so she learns to control her rainbow power again idk how

But you may be wondering,,, Yume has no SPR nor a sun dress, how the heck is she gonna beat Hime in the finale?

Basically, Yume and Koharu,,, craft a Moon Dress by themselves– its not given from the system or anything but they literally make a dress that can rival the Sun Dress

Each one of Yume’s friends help her too, like Mahiru making the crown, or Haruka Ruka helping get certain fabrics? Stuff like that

And then in the near finale of the season, Yume performs in this Moon Dress (without wings)

She activates her rainbow power and has a super powerful aura,,, except the rainbow from her aura then goes into her back,,, and forms a pair of wings

And its sort of basically the system deeming her “worthy” of the Wings of Stars

Yume wins the competition and beats Hime– so both of them sort of get what they want? Yume is at the top now because of her hard work and now her super rainbow power and Hime is finally lifted the burden of being the top idol

Also Rei, Aria, and Kirara get Elza’s mom to give her a hug and they sort of mend their relationship from there

And in the end of the season, Yume beats Rola in the S4 Selection, Mahiru, Ako, and Haruka Ruka win their S4 spots again

Rola decides to go to England to find out what being an idol means to her (and makes a cool rock band because I think that’s what she deserves)

Koharu is now the top idol of Rainbow Berry Parfait– she leaves Venus Ark and opens a boutique that is also a candy shop because why not

Ako is the top actress,,, ever; she’s getting film deals everywhere, every movie she is in sells out completely, she’s a big hit

Mahiru is a supermodel, she’s constantly traveling the world for brand deals; one of the most influential people in the world

I’m ngl I barely talked about Haruka Ruka,,,, oops I swear I love her

I imagine that she gets her own talk show that’s super successful- I also remember making her have a rivalry with Yuzu so she probably beat Yuzu sometime in Season 2 but I never mentioned it until now

And Yume is the top idol of top idols; she’s now the leader of S4 with her super successful career and now she’s just vibing

Elza and her mom are working to mend their relationship good for them good for them

Also Elza apologizes to Hime for using her because I think Hime deserves that apology; they don’t end up being friends again but they do end their little,,, whatever they had going on, amicably

Venus Ark leaves Japan at the end of Season 2 and they’re gonna go to some other country to girlboss and be better than other idol schools good for them

Hime actually stays in Japan! She now helps with Hotaru’s (Moroboshi’s sister) flower shop!

Yozora is the top fashion designer for Romance Kiss in the Japan branch

I think Tsubasa starts an idol agency because I think it’d be cool to have one of those and no one would do it better than Tsubasa

And Yuzu and Lily make their own idol unit its literally a canon event

And I think those are all my ideas so far for the series but if I remember any more ideas I’ll probably reblog this with the new ideas

Also if you read this whole thing, I APPLAUD YOU BECAUSE HUH??? One of god’s strongest soldiers fr

(Note: I swear the characters, especially the main six, are very close to each other I was just trying to get my ideas out so I didn’t focus on much on the relationships between characters)

Also I definitely planned more for lore building like the origin of the rainbow power and how the aikatsu system works (because that thing is definitely sentient,,,) but that's all in Season 3 + 4 where there are new characters (,,,,my ocs,,, STOP SCREAMING I AM BUT A GIRL WHO WANTS TO INDULGE HERSELF IN HER LITTLE DELUSIONS!!!) so that may be a different post,,, maybe

(special tag for @elcall, I hope I did Ako justice 🫶)

#aikatsu #aikatsu stars #rewrite #please!! be!! nice!!!1 #when i get over my constant forgetfulness its so over for all of you #justice for ako btw she deserved better than the treatment she got in the canon show

This is gonna be another long-ish spoiler post for F/SR, so don't click if you haven't learned Rider's True Name yet

Also slight spoilers for Fate/Extra CCC Foxtail and maybe Shimousa but those are old enough that I doubt people care

I really need to hear the opinion of someone who doesn't know much about Fate play Samurai Remnant. I feel like most of us where able to guess a lot of the new Servants based off connections they had to pre-established ones. Rider's probably one of two exceptions because her reveal is supposed to be this huge "what the fuck" moment - and it is, but I feel like that mostly hinges on the player knowing Fate's version of Minomoto-no-Raikou.

Ushi Gozen has been teased for years. Raikou's always been one of the many Servants that mentions how her Berserker Saint Graph isn't the only one we might aee of her (edit 1: I didn't play FGO when it first released so I didn't know this, but apparently Ushi actually shows up in the same event Raikou's introduced in). In Foxtail, we see her used as a prarallel to Suzuka, since both have connections to Oni. The most prominent tease is in Shimousa, where we actually see Ushi Gozen appear, but with the same design as Raikou for budget reasons I guess (edit 2: No we don't, that's just Raikou, but she has the Rider class so I misremembered her there as Ushi Gozen). And now she's actually here! She gets her own game! And she looks...

Girl what the fuck happened to you

I really like both of her designs to be honest. She's one of the few Servants to be wearing actual samurai armor, and she's the first to wear the helmet too I'm pretty sure. Then after Saber kicks the shit out of her, the armor falls apart and we see that she's in a much worse state than any of us expected. Her hair's cut short, her eyes are dead with noticeable bags, her skin's paler than it was before, and she barely looks like she's eaten anything. Those last two could also be said about Raikou (Raita for the love of god learn to draw human women properly) but on Rider they're noticeably worse. Also she seems crazier than her Berserker form, albeit a different kind of crazy.

When we fight her the second time in Chapter 5, she shows up with these awesome robot-like spider legs reminiscent of what Ushi-oni are usually described with. She doesn't look human because her humanity was seemingly beaten out of her. Raikou tends to suffer from what I like to call "the Altera Problem", where if used right she can be a really genuine and badass character, but 90% of the time she's used for jokes and to get people's dicks hard. However in things like Foxtail, or Shimousa (which is even more apparent in the manga), or Heian-Kyo we get to see her for how she really is, which is A) terrifying and B) a hero worthy of going down as one of humanity's best. Rider is only that first one. No jokes, no big tits, just pure unadulturated "you're gonna die" energy.

Rider's the first Servant we ever see in Samurai Remnant. She's the first one Iori encounters, leveling his house in the prologue and acting as the tutorial boss to show the player "hey you can't fucking take these guys on", and in the teaser trailer (which shows that scene) she's one of three Servants who are actually shown to us - the other two being SR's Saber and everyone's favorite bisexual dimension hopper, Musashi. I could write a whole other post about Shousetsu and Iori (maybe I will who knows) but Rider follows their dynamic. She's a strong parallel to Saber. Fuck she basically is Saber if they didn't have people like Ototachibana-Hime and Iori to keep them grounded.

All of the new Servants are super cool (with the exception of Caster that bitch ass nerd), but I think Rider's possibly the coolest. I mean, I've been wanting Samson since I got into Fate and you haven't seen me make any real posts about him because Minamoto-no-Raikou, one of my least favorite Servants, has got me in a vicegrip. I don't know if she's my favorite, but I'll definitely be saving for if she ever comes into FGO

Because…

Part I

Warnings: swearing, underage drinking, smoking, talking about war, trauma dumping

Phosphenes

(n.) the colors or “stars” you see when you rub your eyes.

……………….…………………………………………………………

“Tadaima…”

Genma looked up from his scroll, wrinkling his nose, “Shit, Hime…what is Inoichi doing to you?”

I scoff, pulling the bag of groceries through the door before closing it, “thanks, you sure know how to flatter a girl.”

Genma smirked proudly, getting up from the couch, “my pleasure.”

He began rummaging through the bag, “did you get the sake?”

Glaring, I hit his arm with a carrot. Like a baby, he whined dramatically and I pulled out the sealed bottle, “yes I did, and you should have gotten it earlier today when you got off your shift!”

He groaned flopping on a chair, “but I had to get the cake!”

I give him a sharp glare, “do you know how hard it is to get Sake the day after new years? I had to go to 5 different stores, Genma, 5!”

He waves his hand dismissively, and I continue to put away the food in the fridge, “besides, I thought we were getting Gai new weights.”

Genma gave a dry laugh, “Fucking Asuma already got him that.”

I sigh, putting the last of the food away, “what times the party?”

“Didn’t you help Kurenai with the invites? It’s at 7.”

Nodding, I pull off the grey TI jacket and head to my room.

“I’m gonna shower-don’t! Eat the cookies!”

He whines, putting the cookie back, “it’s not like anyone’s gonna notice!”

“I will.”

………………………………………………………………………….

5 years ago, on October 10, the Nine tails was released from my Jinchūriki sensei, Uzumaki Kushina which resulted in the death of hundreds of Shinobi, including my sensei and our Yondaime Namikaze Minato.

And for the past 5 years, I have been working in the TI building under Yamanaka Inoichi along with one of my close classmates Morino Ibiki. While Ibiki shined in the torture part of the department, I working in the more intelligence part.

The poison department…wasn’t what I had gone for initially, I had wanted to be a field medic that actually got to go out of the village, but my medical Ninjutsu was mediocre and mediocre gets people dead.

It wasn’t like I was disappointed, medics don’t actually engage in combat and my mother said my talents in jutsu would be waisted sitting on the sidelines.

But I guess sitting in a lab all day making and looking at the components of poisons is so much better. Either way I’m still not out there.

It’s still winter in Konoha, and despite being in the land of Fire, it got fucking cold.

Snow licked at our feet as Genma and I walked to Gais apartment, which was already booming with music and people talking.

I sighed, a large cloud of air coming out of my mouth. Genma wrapped an arm around my shoulder, squeezing me.

“Hey, easy up Hime. Let’s have fun getting shit faced with people we like.”

I laughed, “whatever you say, Baka.”

We walked up the first flight of stairs, heading to Gais second story apartment. Genma knocked on the door, giving two crisp knocks before being interrupted when Gai all but ripped the door open.

“MY OLD TEAMMATES!! YOU MADE IT AND JUST IN TIME FOR KARAOKE!!”

Genma and I smiled, and I wrapped my arms around Gai as he picked me up in a hug almost crushing the cookies, “happy birthday Gai-kun, sorry we’re a little late.”

“Nonsense! You’re here! That’s all that matters!”

Genma passed Gai the Sake bottle, smiling, “Happy 19th, Gai.”

Gai had always been the baby of our team, with me being a year older and Genma being 3years Gais senior, we as the older two took it in our power to baby Gai as much as we could…but now he was 19 and a full fledged Jonin.

Gai grinned at the Sake and then at Genma, “Genma! You sly dog! Where’d you find this?!”

I rolled my eyes as Genma gave me an apologetic look before nudging me in so that we wouldn’t freeze to death. Gai, the ever social butterfly, had invited not only our graduating academy class but also many other shinobi.

He wrapped his arm around my shoulder as soon as I pulled my coat off, “Since you’re late, you own two shots!”

I laughed, taking the small shot glass and swigging it. It burned like a mother Fucker, shinobi alcohol has always been made stronger, but the feeling was familiar.

I couldn’t count all the times I had snuck off with Genma and/or Gai with a bottle of the cheep stuff when we were younger.

Genma and I got used to it quick, but poor Gai had never been able to get over being a lightweight…but boy was he a fun drunk.

Asuma two years ago had convinced Drunk Gai to run from the village gate to the stone head completely butt naked, and he had raised that challenge by doing it while running backwards on his hands.

No one could stop laughing for two days.

Gai laughed loudly, shaking the apartment with his booming voice, “now that you’re here, WE CAN START THE DRINKING GAMES!”

It had been an hour since Genma and I had arrived, and the alcohol and bright lights of the party was starting to get to my head.

I slipped out, opting to stand on the outside balcony. It was cold, like I had thought, but it was calming compared to the heat of 20+ shinobis crammed into Gais apartment. I enjoyed parties, I really did, but sometimes it all got too much.

I blame Asuma for this habit I think as I pull outa pack of cigarettes. Pulling one out, I place it between my lips as I search myself for my lighter.

Nothing. No lighter, meant it was in my fucking jacket at home.

Sighing, I run a hand through my hair before raising my hands to start weaving the all too familiar signs , when suddenly my body stiffened.

This chakra….

Fuck.

“Those things will kill you, you know.”

Turning my head, I look up, eyes softening at the source of the voice.

“You’re late, Kakashi. Party started at 7.”

The dog mask with the red painted on smile tilted, and the moon caught the soft glow of his lone Sharingan. He slowly and silently moved down the roof to be in the light, and I turned to face him fully.

“Oh? The time must have…slipped my mind.”

I frown, the cigarette dangling from my lips, “you should have come earlier. He’s your best friend, Kakashi-”

“Inu, (Y/n), I’m not off right now.”

My frown deepened, and I sigh,“Right.”

His mask tilted more, almost comically, “New haircut?”

I scowl, knowing he was being an ass. Stupid Genma a week ago had made a wrong swipe of his kunai during training, ending with me getting a free cut. Now, the hair curled just shy of my shoulders.

“Shout out to my barber.”

“Maybe I should see if Genma does men.” he evenly spoke and found a second there I could have sworn his tone was teasing.

I hum, weaving a few hand signs before blowing a small flame to light the cigarette And he hops down from the roof silently.

He stands fully, and I forget how tall the once shrimpy silver-haired man was when we were kids.

He’s still lean, not muscler like Gai, but he’s toned and I can’t help but press myself further away from him into the railing with a blush I convince myself that is from the alcohol.

Kakashi…ever since that day had barely showed his face around the village, opting to stay in the shadows. But every now and then, people were graced with getting a glimpse of him. It had been a good 2 years since we’d been this close, and that was in a room full of our comrades and in front of the council.

This, despite having all our friends a plate of glass away, was different.

“Those things will kill you.”

He repeated, tone commanding. I furrowed my brows until it clicked on my head that he wasn't some Anbu subordinate anymore, but a captain.

Still, I had never listened to him when we were kids…why start now?

I make eye contact as I take my first drag, and let the smoke swirl around me when I blow it out. I feel his eyes narrow, and I smirk with all the grace my drunk ass could muster up in front of Hatake Fucking Kakashi.

“If I die because of this, then that means I didn’t die a gory death in battle…and I’d say that’s a pretty good death for me.”

*let's see if you guys like this! If you do I'll write more!*

Higanbana-Hime Profile

Here is the profile for the project I'm working on that is an original idea! Please be kind!

-Name: Princess Hayate Nadeshiko (last, first; Hayate means ‘hurricane’ and Nadeshiko means ‘carnation’; given the western way, name means ‘carnation hurricane’)

-Alias: Higanbana-hime (‘red spider lily princess’)

-Born late winter 1894, died early summer 1912; 18 years old when she died

-Looks: picture 1 above; waist length pure black hair, light brown eyes that look red in certain lighting; pale skin, very beautiful, petite build, 5’3, thin but toned, 32B cup size

-Personality: despite being such a legendary and fearsome warrior, she is actually quite soft-spoken and shy around others, preferring to listen rather than speak but when she does speak, people listen; is easy going so she’s easy to get along with, not selfish or spoiled like many would think a princess to be like, always willing to help others, but can get pouty when someone disrespects her or others, wanting an apology; wise, level-headed, very hard to upset but is rumored to be quite scary when mad; has an air of elegance around her but also has a strong fighting spirit, so those who are warriors themselves can tell she is strong; has a strong sense of right and wrong and her instincts are second to none when judging others

-Clothes: picture 2 above are her normal clothes, red hakama pants with black floral hakama kimono, with white tabi socks paired with her black lacquered okobo in picture 3, that she was raised on and wore all her life and is able to dead sprint, climb walls, and fight in them with ease (like wearing high heels); picture 4 is a haori kimono jacket that reaches her knees

-Weapon: picture 5, a traditional red Japanese umbrella made of silk, bamboo, and steel rods, making it heavy but she is accustomed to the weight and can use it to smack others if needed and it’s completely waterproof; the umbrella part is removable from the pole part, which is a hidden scabbard to a katana, so she can fight unhindered if need be; trained since she was a young child in judo, for self-defense, and with a katana, training hard to become a master swordswoman in Iai (the art of quickly drawing the blade, striking, then sheathing in one fluid motion)

-Past: only child of a kind warrior lord who always was fair and just, who insisted she trained her body in both martial arts and with a sword, both for self-defensive purposes; when she was 14, a cruel warlord who had been storming Japan, slaughtered her parents in front of her before demanding that she marry him, due to her beauty; she refused and attacked, managing to slice his right arm off at the shoulder, before running away, becoming a ronin onna-musha (wandering warrior woman), constantly hunted by that cruel lord as well as other lords, wanted for her otherworldly beauty; however, with her skills and strengths the gained over the years, none could defeat her and declared she would only marry the one who would defeat her in combat; when she was 15 she saved a young lord and his wife, who were both very kind and honorable and she swore loyalty to them, and to thank her for saving them, they gifted her with her Higanbana haori, which in turn gave her the namesake, Higanbana-hime; became an icon for women after she started going around and saving women and daughters from abusive husbands and fathers, delivering swift justice and became a legendary icon to women, but men saw her more as a vengeful spirit as rumors spread about a beautiful maiden in a red and black floral hakama kimono with a haori with spider lilies, or Higanbana, on it; died in the summer of her 18th year, when a cruel lord tried to take over the city she lived in, serving her lord and lady as a warrior, she died protecting a child from the blade of that cruel man, who was then almost instantly overpowered and killed by the people of her city and the remainder of his army fled; she was buried with full honors, honored as a hero and an icon and due to this, she was able to transcend to Valhalla

-Likes: relaxing under her kotatsu, eating zenzai (red bean soup with mochi), oyakodon (egg and chicken rice bowl), marshmallows (in small amounts), souffle cheesecake, drinking black tea, playing the shamisen, long walks in nice weather, rainy days, practicing with her sword

-Dislikes: bitter food, natto, green tea, anything to do with peppermint, anything spooky (like haunted houses or ghost stories), insects (except for ladybugs and butterflies) spiders, and thunderstorms

For the first photo I used a dress up game on Doll Divine; link is below.

The Mercenary

The Mercenary - prologue

RiverOfTheSand

Summary:

She fled her home to survive the outbreak of war. But in order to survive the outside world, she would need a bodyguard. Instead, she got a rude, arrogant man who just happened to be hot as hell. AU SasuSaku.

Notes:

Cross-posted from fanfiction.net. Technically. There's only one chapter so far. It's edited and ready to be posted and I'm working on the next one. Getting my SasuSaku groove on. So please read and kudo and comment. I hope you enjoy. :)

End chapter notes:

I decided to try focusing on one multi-chaptered story for now. And The Mercenary won the coin toss. Wish me luck and thankyou so much for reading. :)

This is a work in progress story you can also find on AO3 and FF.NET.

Enjoy. :)

The Mercenary: Prologue.

It wouldn't have surprised her, looking back at how she acted, if he had just left her on the side of the road to die somewhere, that rude, arrogant man... that mercenary. She had deserved that at least. But she knew very well, from watching it happen to others, that love could sculpt and heal even the darkest of hearts. It was a powerful thing – toppling nations, uniting former enemies, and healing broken souls. And she had longed to be on the receiving end of some handsome man's affections from the day her mother first told her that she had gotten her fantasy prince.

Sakura Haruno's mother had married a king, a man that everyone loved, and nobody hated – at least, from what the pinkette saw. She was happy, they were happy, and even at the end of it all, they had stayed together.

Sakura, meanwhile, had been ripped away from the fairy tale life she'd taken for granted, unable to stop it as her life came crumbling down around her. All she could do was flee, her mother's screams echoing in her mind, her father yelling at her to flee before they came for her too.

Enemies came in many guises, but this one had crept up on them, invaded their home, and twisted the sword for good measure.

Sakura coughed loudly, unable to restrain herself as she ran haphazardly through familiar halls.

The dust cloud created by nearby fighting hit her harshly, whipping across her tear-stained face, but she refused to let it slow her down. Tripping, catching herself, and stumbling forward as she spotted her sensei moving toward her, she reached out desperately, letting out a grateful whimper as his fingers clasped hers protectively. He was strong and pulled her to him easily.

"We must flee," he said, his smooth voice calm but insistent. "You must survive my Hime."

An explosion – not unlike an earthquake – resounded in the distance, making up her mind to put all her faith in her companion. He had never let her down before.

She would cry later, again. She couldn't stop the tears, but they fell silently. She would mourn later.

Gathering all her strength, she followed the only ally she had now.

The servant's entrance stank like the moat, but Sakura could not care less. Inhaling the scent like it was her saviour, she did the only thing she could – allowed her sensei to half-drag her away. He had taught her to fight, to be strong, and defend herself when necessary. But he had not explained what to do when none of those options were possible. She was running now, crying silently, and picturing her mother – the last time she'd seen Queen Mebuki, her chamber door had slammed in her face, and she was dragged away.

Sakura faltered.

"Do not let go of my hand, Sakura-hime."

She looked up at her saviour, wondering what he would do if it was his family. They were all dead now, and she couldn't help the wrenching of her heart as she remembered that she was the only family he knew now. He would want her to flee this place, find their allies in the north, and return to retake her life. Live, to fight tomorrow. That was one of his many mottos.

The man she'd looked up to for years, the man she still harboured a childhood crush on, the man who had saved her life. He smiled down at her, his eyes crinkling in that way that made women swoon. She nodded her head, showing him that she understood, and they returned to their hurried pace. Through the underground passage that only servants took – from maids to lowly soldiers. Through the courtyards that met them in the pit of darkness – it was night-time. And down into the lower town. No-one would expect this of her, surely.

Sakura had hoped the sounds of war would grow distant, but as they burst into the dimly lit, night air of the peasant district, the sounds only grew.

It didn't take away the fear, but her confidence in her sensei would never be swayed; the entire city was under attack, not just the castle. What force was so great that it could take them by surprise like this?

The lower levels of the city were in a panic, knowing even less about what was going on, and no-one paid her any mind, let alone noticed that she was dressed in the robes of their princess. Her sensei wrapped his cloak around her, to further hide her; his hands slipped from hers to tie it securely around her shoulders. Something heavy slammed into him, and his hands left her completely.

The crowd pushed and pulled; she called his name. He called hers. And when someone shoved into Sakura hard enough to knock her to the ground, he was gone, lost in the sea of people desperately swarming toward the exits.

Her hoarse voice called for him once more, but he was nowhere to be seen. She let out a frustrated cry and looked around. She needed to get out of here and do what her sensei expected of her; she would see him again; she just knew it. Sakura looked up at the castle on that thought, said thoughts going to her mother, and the only father she'd ever known. If only that reunion were possible.

She ran with the fleeing commoners and moved with the crowd.

Fate had a way of ripping away a person's life, only to sneak up unexpectedly and throttle people if they weren't careful. But what it had in store for her wasn't the broken fairy tale she'd assumed. She would find her prince. Her prince charming... and take that fateful step along a bumpy road, toward her own future.

If only she'd known he was just as annoying as her... she might've treated him better.

Maybe.

That roadside, where her imagination envisaged any man would abandon an annoying, spoilt princess...

Sakura took one last look at her home, then turned, and disappeared into the dark.

kare no hime | 彼の姫

This story will contain mature themes. Read at your own risk.

Grieving over Sukuna’s death led to a a new beginning in your life. Slowly recovering from what happened, you decide to move out of that village.

Chapter eight - New beginning

Previous chapter

Next chapter

The first thing you experienced when waking up was a headache. Your head felt like something was pounding it from the inside. Like someone set fire in there.

It was your shared room with Sukuna. You could tell.

Except, multiple things were missing. Sukuna’s old robes, his mattress, and his small drawer where he keeps hidden stashes of confectionaries. You spotted two dust bunnies and a small spider web on the ceiling. The pot of flowers you left by the window have withered and died from the lack of water.

You attempt to stand up. And you did. Successfully.

Looking at your hands, you were startled by how ugly they were. The tip of your fingers were swollen and dry to the point bits of skin started to fall off.

You stumble back onto your mattress in disbelief of how hideous your hands look now. You started to shake, covering yourself with the blanket, which wasn’t enough.

The sound of a you bawling echoes. It never happened before when you talked. It just happens, you were alone.

He is gone.

Unable to stand the pain of losing your beloved, you cry into your pillow, unbothered even if the neighbours could hear you. The man you trusted the most was gone. He wasn’t coming back. Whether you screamed or cried, it didn’t matter, you couldn’t even tell at this point.

Footsteps approached your bedroom.

“May I come in?” Aoi’s voice asked. She slid open the door.

Aoi was wearing an all white kimono. Anju was next to her, wearing the same colours. Her face had heavy dark circles and has gotten skinnier.

“Fushiguro, the children and I will be leaving this village,” Aoi weakly whispered. “The villagers think Tsuku is Ryomen Sukuna.” she didn’t make eye contact. She just stared at the floor. “You may come with us, but we won’t help you find his body.”

“I’ll do it,” you scramble up and grab Aoi’s hand. “I know where he was last,” you cry.

Aoi gently holds your hand.

“For sixteen days, you have been nonstop waking up from a nightmare and then falling back to sleep. Your injuries have not recovered properly, Fushiguro,” Aoi still didn’t dare look at you in the eye. You weren’t sure if she was sad, or just purely tired from caring for you. She took a deep breath. “We will move somewhere near the capital, I have already informed my husband. Tomorrow morning is when we’ll depart.”

“I’ll think about it,” you whisper. “How is Anfuku doing?”

“In the kitchen. He’s gotten angrier,” Aoi gaze darkened. “His obsession has only gotten worse. He’s especially angry with the fact there was no cremation ceremony.”

Aoi grabs Anju’s hand, slowly walking away from your room.

You take one step out of room you were confined in for sixteen days. The hallways were the same. Just dirtier.

Steadily, you make sure you don’t fall or trip on the slightly painful journey to the kitchen.

Anfuku was sitting with his legs curled, arms wrapped around his head. He looked up at you when the door slid open. His eyes weren’t red or filled with tears. Just puffy.

“H-hey Anfuku, how are you doing?” you ask, entering the room.

“Why didn’t you bring his body back?” Anfuku yelled.

The silence only made you feel worse.

“I couldn’t, Anfuku,” you stutter. “My body was weak from the cold. Tsuku was too big and heavy for me,” you begin to swallow your agony. “He wasn’t going to make it, Anfuku.”

The child glared at you.

“If there is no body to prove he’s dead, he’s still alive!” Anfuku shrieked and begins bawling. Not in a bratty way. He was genuinely so heartbroken to see Sukuna gone. “We need to search for him!”

You kneel and wrap your arms around him.

“It’s going to be okay,” you hush him.

The following day was quiet.

Until Toji Zenin appeared at the house again.

“I heard you guys are moving?” he asked Aoi, sitting in the living room with her.

“Yes,” Aoi replied, her voice was now toneless. “We cannot stay here anymore.”

“Not yet!” Anfuku begged. “We don’t know if he’s actually dead!”

“Anfuku,” Aoi’s voice was stern for the first time. “Tsuku’s body has probably been taken by the wolves by now. It’s not worth going back in the forest.”

“I’ll look for Tsukus body if that makes you happy, Anfuku!” Toji smiled.

Your eyes widen at his sentence.

“Oh no, please don’t. It is too cold for you to do that,” Aoi quickly retorted. “Anfuku is just a child, he will get over it in a while.”

“I have thick clothing suitable for the cold Japanese winters, Aoi,” Toji then looked at you. “If I can confirm his body isn’t there, Anfuku can’t do much after that, can he?” his gaze flickers with the uneasy, but flirtatious kind of fire. “Fushiguro can lead the way.”

They all looked at you.

“I-I can,” you pushed yourself to speak.

“In fact, we can leave right now,” Toji stands up.

The path to that exact forest haunted you.

Even in your nightmares.

“Now we’re out of the village,” Toji’s tone transitioned quick. “Who is that man?” he looks down at you with an empty stare. “Why aren’t you with Ryomen Sukuna?”

“The man was my fiancee,” you reply, careful with how your face reacted to his words. “I do not know where Ryomen Sukuna is.”

“Bullshit,” Toji laughed quietly to himself. “Ryomen Sukuna doesn’t let his slaves go that easily, he either eats them or kills them.” he continued to laugh to himself about how ridiculous it was you managed to escape.

“Why was I the bait?” you ask.

He stops laughing.

“What bait?” he asked.

“You placed me near the village he was massacring, why?”

“I wanted you to cook for him and stay by his side, I guess I wanted to see how he reacted,” Toji casually replies, as if you could’ve died.

“What about my family?” you lash out. “Did he kill them?”

“Woman, I didn’t contact them ever since the wedding night,” Toji seemed relatively calm seeing you stressed.

You felt the pain inside you working up again. You shut your eyes tightly to avoid crying in front of that man.

“Let’s go,” Toji nudged you. Not even a drop of sympathy.

You took one step, and then another. The snow was not as heavy this time. But you had trouble remembering what directions you took. After all, it’s been a couple of days.

“Why do you want to know where his body is?” you ask. He was behind you.

“It’s not anywhere you can find a four armed beast roaming this forest,” Toji smiled. You felt your entire body freeze once again. Toji wasn’t stupid. He never was. A man like him calculates every move and doesn’t spare a detail. “Who knows if your fiancee was slaughtered by Ryomen Sukuna, he wouldn’t allow you to be married.”

“I don’t think Sukuna would care about my marital status,” you continue walking. You tried as hard as you could to remember where you went. All you knew was you went straight, no turns.

“You’re right,” Toji was now beside you, laughing. “The fact you even survived a day with him is impressive, Fushiguro,” his oddly casual voice made you shiver.

It was that hill.

You recognized it despite the lighter snow.

There were no traces of blood or dead man. It was nothing but sticks and dead grass. Slowly approaching the spot where he passed, you felt your stomach drop.

Nothing. Whatever took him didn’t spare a single bone.

“Are you sure it was here?” Toji asked.

“I’m sure.”

Toji takes a closer look, leaning in his head.

You swear you saw a smile just flash upon his face.

“I guess Ryomen Sukuna didn’t spare your husband,” Toji immediately walked away.

“How do you know he killed him?” you didn’t move. You then sat down.

“What else could have happened?” Toji turned around to see you sitting. “Your husband know’s nothing of jujutsu,” he bended down to stare at the almost crying you.

You put your arms around your knees.

“You.. “ Toji stopped at that word to close his eyes for a moment. “You should get over it.” his sharp, cold tone made you snap.

“You never loved your fiancee,” you whisper is a rather aggressive manner. Standing up and quickly storming back onto the path back to the village.

You knew that Toji was behind you. You felt so many emotions, unable to describe them. But what made you feel horrible was the fact Toji never felt sympathy. Both Sukuna and Toji were heartless monsters who manipulate vulnerable people for their own gain.

Walking faster wasn’t an option. He would catch up.

“Why did you use me as a bait for Sukuna?” you firmly asked. “Why did you use me as a bait while knowing I will probably die?”

The sound of Toji’s footsteps stopped.

It was silent for a moment.

Toji frowns, walking past you.

“There’s a reason why I chose you over your sister,”

You spotted Anfuku in front of the house, sitting. He had his little hands on his cheeks, patiently waiting for you.

“Anfuku,” you call out.

“Did you find him?” he practically jumped from the staircase racing towards you.

You bend down to meet the young boy’s face.

“We couldn’t find his remains. I’m sorry,” you whisper.

Anfuku pushes you onto the ground. You didn’t realize how strong and rough a little boy could be until now. His eyes teared up as he punched you in the arm.

“Tsuku is the strongest man alive, he would never die!” he screamed, running back into the house. Anfuku left a bad bruise on you, and yes, it hurt. But he was a child. A child who couldn’t accept reality. You couldn’t blame him.

You feel a sharp presence behind you.

“What a brat,” Toji laughed.

Unphased by Toji’s comment, you don’t reply. Instead, you head back inside the house. Only a few hours, you were tired. You wanted to sleep. Sleep for a long time. Preferably not wake up until you see him again.

The bed you went to sleep in was comfy that evening.

You find yourself on a bridge. A stone bridge, carefully carved. There was a pond underneath with lily pads. White water lilies laid on the pads. A beautiful, slender crane stood on the edge of the pond. The crane just stood there.

Walking towards the crane, you still keep a decent distance between you and the animal. You notice something else.

Sukuna.

He now was on the opposite side of the pond.

Rushing back to the bridge, he glares at you.

You stop.

That was not your fiancee. That is Ryomen Sukuna.

It was quite chilly in the middle of the night, you still managed to have a panic attack from the dream. You missed him. You missed his touch. You missed everything about him.

Sliding the room door open, you walk past Aoi and Anfuku’s room while putting on a warm robe.

The moonlight was bright tonight.

You remember your conversation with Sukuna on a full moon night. Then it all washed upon you. Sobbing started again. That imaginary fox you met in Kyoto told you you’d bring misfortune to the men around you. It was unclear if it’s an actual god, or jujutsu tricks. But in the end, what the fox said was true. You were the reason why Tsuku was dead.

“You should shut up,” a pissed off voice from on top of the roof yelled.

You knew it was Toji, but you couldn’t stop. It just made you even sadder. He wouldn’t understand. He would never.

Spotting his face peeking from the roof, you see his pink face and drowsy expression stare at you.

“Why are you crying? Shut up!” he held up a big brown jug and poured clear liquid into his mouth. Even with the chilly air, you could smell the alcoholic beverage; sake.

You wipe the tears, sniffing.

“Y-you should go back inside, it’s cold inside,” you avoid eye contact, walking back to the front door.

Toji’s hand suddenly flew down the shingles, hanging from the roof, just inches away from your forehead.

He grabbed your wrist and lifted it. Feeling a few seconds of elevation, your entire body flew onto the roof with his strength.

“What do you want?” you snap, standing up on top of the shingles. The view was indeed nice. You could see the forest from the top.

“Do you want to know why I used you?” Toji whispered, pouring even more sake into his mouth. He laid down. “I hate you. I really hate you.”

You feel your entire body ache.

He looked at you with furious, yet calm eyes.

“Women like you irritate me,” Toji continued with his rant. His widened eyes were now slightly red. “Women like you.. I hate you.” Toji’s tone sharpened.

Feeling slightly hurt, you choose to ignore his words. You look up at the sky. You knew you were someone with proper morales. Toji had no valid reason to hate you. Right?

“Do not ignore me,” Toji drowsily said. He reached for your hand and squeezed it. Thank god he didn’t have nails. “Don’t you think I’m handsome?” he laughed.

He stared at you.

You shake off his hard grip.

“I didn’t know someone like you drinks,” you finally reply.

“You’re right,” he lifts the pot sized jug as if it they were feathers. “I hate the taste of alcohol,” he continues to pour the liquid into his mouth, wide open. “Fushiguro, do you want to know why I hate alcohol?” he didn’t even give you time to respond. “When I was little, my uncle used to force me to chug down alcohol as a punishment. Good thing is, you can’t feel anything after drinking!”

You then thought of your own life.

You were the youngest of three. There was your older sister and brother, and you. The favoritism was inevitable. Your older brother was obviously the golden child--because he was a man. Men could work. Men could study. But thankfully, he was a kind man, but didn’t speak to you very often. Between you and your sister was much more complicated. Your sister was elegant and intelligent, to a degree where you thought she was smarter than your brother, who has a teacher. She was the one who taught you calligraphy and reading. You still weren’t sure why your parent’s chose you over her to marry Toji. Not only was she older, her beauty and skill in the arts could not be compared to you.

“Do you think I’m beautiful?” you bluntly asked.

“You have pale skin, red lips, I don’t know the standards..” Toji replied.

You turn to directly face him.

“My sister has always been considered more beautiful than me,” you smile while speaking.

“Do you know what she doesn’t have?” Toji’s voice deepens.

“What?”

“She doesn’t have the aptitude to deal with Ryomen Sukuna,”

You feel your hands clenching.

“And I do?” you ask, clearly pissed.

“Sukuna doesn’t want a woman who can sing and dance all day,” Toji laughs. “Any women can do that.”

“And what can I do? Cook?” you sarcastically laugh back.

“No,” he responds. “You look like a women he cherished in the past.”

You woke up on that roof that morning.

“Why are you two on the roof?” Aoi shouted, her things packed onto a cart.

“Sorry Aoi, she was sad last night, so I had to comfort her,” Toji almost immediately replied enthusiastically.

He casually jumps down and reaches his hand out for you to jump down.

“Are you ready to leave?” Aoi asked you.

“Y-yes,” you reply.

You go onto the cart as the man in charge of the horses starts whipping them to start running.

The new village was supposedly near Kyoto.

Not only was it much smaller than the previous village, but the people there were much more humble and welcoming.

This time, you and Aoi had to share a room. So did Anju and Anfuku. It was supposed to be temporary, according to Aoi.

“Have you heard what’s happening? We are so glad you guys moved to a smaller village like ours,” a lady dressed rather poorly commented as you head out of the new house.

“What happened?” you ask.

“There is this beast massacring villages,” the lady said. “Ryomen Sukuna. Have you heard of him? He’s currently in this area.”

You freeze at her words.

“R-Ryomen Sukuna is dead,” your voice stuttered. “He’s dead.”

“Nonsense! My cousin who works in the south said his friend was killed by that beast,” the woman went on. “That was just a few days ago.”

#1 - Envoy

Smiling never came naturally for the Captain. It might've been easy for most, but for him it was a forced and painful effort, each meeting with a potential customer leaving him dead tired, with aching cheeks and jaw that lasted for the rest of the day. If it had been up for him, he would've preferred to leave the affair to one of his subordinates - or Hells, anyone else, if it meant he would've been able to spend the extra bells locked up in his quarters.

Unfortunately for him, such an option was not available to him - a fact that had once again been made abundantly clear as he had found himself dragged out of his cabin, dressed up and sent off to yet another meeting within the dusty, sweltering confines of Ul'dah.

He was the face of the Nemuri-hime, and he had to clench his jaw and deal with it. He had to wrestle his grimace into a business-smile, and twist his weary words of vitriol into something more pleasant and subservient. He would flatter, he would negotiate and he would wring himself dry, until the deal was struck and his wares were exchanged into a heavy pouch of coin.

And after what always felt like an eternity, he would return to his quarters, ungracefully collapse onto his sheets, and stay there until the sun would set and rise again - for multiple suns when his crew allowed him.

Fortunately for him, his crew more often than not allowed the Captain his time of rest. No one else wanted to take up the tiring mantle of business discussions after all.

Part 4

Why did it take you so long to find me. Did you even want me found?

Course I did how can you say that?

Steve, we lived together. I mean, you practically moved in but you- she had rings on I'm not blind. Me out of the way.... solve a lot of problems.

No it doesn't. Causes a lot of issues.

Hayden Wouldn't let things drop he was worried.

I never stopped loving you I havent slept until I found you. I missed you so much baby. Shes nothing nothing compared to you. Shes no one.

I dont know why I keep imagining the same conversation over and over in my head. The same one I imagined Steve and I would have anyway. It's obvious I mean nothing to him. That I am nothing to him. But still.... Sometimes I imagine he's holding me at night keeping me safe.

It still doesn't stop the nightmares. Nothing stops the nightmares. I don't think anything will ever stop these nightmares as long as I live. Is this how Steve and Bucky feel? But with Steve. I wake him up. I let him do what he needs. If I need to hold him if he needs to hold me if he needs silence or talking or of he just wants to kiss me, to prove I'm real and he's there not a nightmare that he's safe. I let him. He's been through so much and I- oh whats the point. I LIVE through the nightmares then it's night until its over and then the REAL nightmares are here. All I have is two pillows.... So when I wake up, because I always do. I pretend Hayden's there he's smoothing my hair. I pretend I hear his voice lie we were back in one of our rooms and he's just holding me,

"Shhh you're ok babe I'm here I got you. You want to talk about it?"

"No I just want you to hold me."

He'd kiss my head and read me something. As he hold me close and plays with my hair. He sooth me to sleep so I tr and imagine that- My imagination is all I have left... I think that is all of me that remains.

I'm losing track of the days.. they seem to bleed together because I'm just I left alone every day. Every night. Sometimes I wonder if I'm going dead because

I know im just lost at this point. I pretend like Hayden's here and he's talking to me telling me about his classes. Sometimes I run through conversations that me and Steve had had or will have, arguments I wish we hand. Sometimes I wish I dump water on his head at the fair. I decided what I'd say "You told me you loved me last night but she is wearing rings Steve. Yiu told me you loved me this morning. You knew I was comming here. Why? Why hurt me?" then they'd know I was the victim. Theyd knoow the man he truely was letting me stay here to die because he got whar? Bored i don't know. Never know..

Maybe life would've be been better if I never went the fair at all.. if I stayed hime.. woubacI be back home sound I be safe? would Steve still save me if I never found out? Would I be with Steve or would I have found out either way? Would I have ever met Hayden? God. I love him- he did know me and he still just made sure I was ok I learned its who he is.but he is much the just happy with him. I know he loves me without words.wor maybe I should say Loved.

There was a partition for the toilet and a curtain for thr shower. I had no choice but to eat the food. if it wasnt nightmares or should I say between the break of nightmares I'd have some weird dreams but thats it. It doesn't seem like the food that's slid under door is drugged. Not that I have a choice. I have to eat-I guess not like I can order uber eats.

Not sure how long I'd have been there maybe 2 weeks the most. I tried to eat as little as possible but obviously made me a little weak but I had been tired lately but also bored out of my mind.

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

Then suddenly there was noise just noise i couldn't make it out then then fI could. bullets and I started coughing for some reason. I was confused and then I heard a bang I was trying to figure out how to hide but I couldn't it was useless I couldn't think.

I didnt know who grabbed me I didn't even recognize the voices all I heard was "safe"

Maybe this is it. Safe-salvation? I can only hope it'll take the pain away and that it will be quick.

Ever since you mentioned Tim I've been rolling around how one could do a crossover with Shikako like a bouncy ball at the tips of my fingers.

And I've got it! ✨️Due to Trigon's Jashin vibes he accidentally pulls Shikako off course mid-dimension travel to Titans' Tower and due to Jason's post pit vibes Shikabane-hime is pulled to a certain time. Add Tim's pov and we've got a viable crossover. :p

Not a prompt/request; just a fic idea logistics ask. ✨️

I think if we’re going specifically for a Tim & Shikako crossover fic with either Tim POV or eventual friendship then the most direct route would be to set it during Tim’s first year as Red Robin when he’s specifically looking for evidence of space-time shenanigans with bat symbology. Like, yes, it’s aimed at Bruce. But that could also be Shikako. And given his big bad during that terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year is Ra’s who is, if not the master of the Lazarus Pit, then the person who has used it the most that’s doubly a more direct connection.

If we want her to show up earlier than that, while he’s Robin proper and not Red Robin, I think it depends on the vibe/energy of the fic we’re going for.

Like, if we want it to be a meditation on the nature of life and death, love and grief, we could maybe lean into the Shikabane-hime = Shinigami and if instead of going for cloning, Tim went for necromancy/magic rituals ala spqr’s The Next Life. We could go for that stretch of time in which Tim’s dad, Kon, Bart, and Stephanie were dead or—a little less bleak, and slightly less soul crushing, but still similar vibes—would be when his mom dies/dad is in a coma and he doesn’t want to be adopted by Bruce so he invents a FAKE UNCLE. So, like, necromancy isn’t too much of a stretch for that boy.

Alternatively, if we don’t feel like breaking his heart first, given how his parents were doing “obscure/random archaeological digs” there could be a “mystical artifact” that the Drakes send home that summons Shikako? Or, given how wacky the original comic run of Young Justice is, it could be from that stretch of time, like one of their quirky one shot type of missions. And, well, they did have a literal ghost on their team so a interdimensional ninja isn’t too off base. There’s also Klarion the Witch-boy who Tim is, if not loosely allied with, then occasional tolerated acquaintances with I think? And he does interdimensional stuff so it’s not like that’s entirely outside the realm of possibility—although that’s maybe moving too far away from the Tim-centric vibe we’re going for.

I’m also just like… Janet Drake is straight up a mystery. She’s so infrequently seen canonically as opposed to Jack who has a personality and a character arc (even if it is small) that it’s easy to attribute any AU-ness Tim may or may not have to her. Like maybe she has a family heirloom necklace that we know is actually Shikako’s Gelel stone. Or she’s made some kind of faustian bargain with the non-Shikabane-hime Shinigami and then X years later, Shikako is there to collect on the Shinigami’s behalf (knowingly or not.)

I mostly bring it up because I do love how malleable Tim Drake is (he’s so fun to throw into AUs!) and the earlier in his Robin career—or even before he becomes Robin—he meets Shikako the more she can do to either prepare/divert him from his very sad, all-the-people-you-love-are-dead fate. Like… instead of Tim being sent abroad as a 13 year old(?!) to learn from some of Batman’s old teachers and then getting found/mentored by Lady Shiva instead, it would be cool if Shikako was there also. Like either as an occasional partner to Lady Shiva, or a similarly temporary student, or something similar. Or maybe instead of Lady Shiva if we want to streamline?

Although I am now recalling many moons ago that my last "in which Tim is trained by Lady Shiva post but NOT to be Robin" was a sneaky Assassin's Creed crossover and given that the Isu in Assassin's Creed are the gods of mythology, it would be interesting if Shikako's in to this world was as a theoretical (actual?) corporeal Isu against Ra's League of Assassins (who are actually Templars who have nearly wiped out actual Assassins and have taken the title for themselves)

But… yeah… most Occam’s razor version is her showing up during his year from hell finding Bruce in spacetime and fighting a creepy immortal man. Most fun version is her showing up when he’s younger than her apparent age (of… 15?) and then these two weird teenagers, one of whom is mentoring the other in techniques/abilities previously unseen in this world, are just… absolutely bewildering the superhero world.
