Hakuoki - Modern AU - Teacher

Pairing: Female reader x Hijikata

Warnings: none

Word counts: 454

A/N: I had the idea to write about school AU with hijikata after I read a bit about the plot of hakuoki SSL (they will release this game on switch this year btw. But no idea if they’ll one day localize it). Y/N is not based on hakuoki’s MC (Chizuru).

I don’t know how many chapters this fic will have. So far, there are no warnings, but I can’t promise I won’t add some smut or triggering topics in the next chapters.

And I don’t intend to post one chapter a day/week. I’ll try to give a proper end to this fic as soon as possible, but the truth is that it can take months to finish it.

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

CHAPTER 1

Y/N – “So, you are saying you know how to improve my humor?”

Kondou – “Precisely! I know exactly what you need to smile again. Look right there.”

Y/N – “Oh my fucking god! Who is that ikemen in the library?”

Kondou – “Hey, lady! Watch your mouth! We are at the school.”

Y/N – (gets excited) “Kondou, help. He is so hot! How come I have never seen this guy before?”

Kondou – “Hehehe. That’s a good question.”

Kondou – “So… Did your humor improve a little bit?”

Y/N – “Yep. You do know what I like haha.”

Kondou – *chuckles* “I’m glad I could help. That’s what friends are for.”

Y/N – “Well… I think I owe you one now. Let me know if you need anything.”

Kondou – “Don’t mention it.”

Y/N – “Who is that guy, by the way?”

Kondou – “Oh, he is a teacher here. And my friend. Oh, and he is also my assistant principal.”

Y/N – “Damn… This one sure works a lot. You better give a raise to your friend later ahaha.”

Y/N – “Oh, speaking of which… it looks like he just saw us. And he seems angry. Maybe he wants to talk to you. I better get going now. See ya!”

Kondou – “Y/N, wait! Don’t you want to know him? I can…”

Before Kondou could finish his sentence, Y/N is already far away. And walking at a fast pace to get to her appointment on time.

Hijikata – “Hey, Kondou-san, who was that woman?”

Kondou – “Oh, hi, Toshi. I hope we didn’t interrupt your work.”

Hijikata – “Not really, but why were you two staring at me?”

Kondou – “Oh, about that… haha.”

Kondou – “You know, you are very popular with the ladies.”

Hijikata – “Right… Well, anyway, care to say who is she?”

Kondou – “Oh, right! Y/N is a friend of mine I met two years ago when I went to visit the international school she works at. She is here in Tokyo to attend a school conference.”

Hijikata – “I see. So she was here to talk about business or something? I’m sure everything was already ready for the conference. I checked myself.”

Kondou – “No, no, no. As I said, you are popular with the ladies.”

Hijikata – “Well, if you are not going to say it, so be it. I’m heading home.”

Hijikata – “Ah, and before I forget. Don’t you try to set me up on another date. Just like you said, the school conference is coming. I don’t have time for this.”

Kondou – “Geez, Toshi. She is a very pretty lady, you know? A lot of men would die just to get a chance to go on a date with her. You are not getting young…”

And just like Y/N, Hijikata left Kondou speaking to himself without saying another word.

One shot Relationships: Okita Souji/Yukimura Chizuru, Okita Souji & Nagumo Kaoru, Nagumo Kaoru & Yukimura Chizuru Part 3 of The phone and the shame Summary:

After a heinous visit in Kochi, Kaoru goes home to discover something even more heinous. Chaos ensues.

Or Kaoru discovers that his sister dates Okita and is not happy about it.

(this illustration is slightly too humorous for the tone of this story but this is the only official one I found representing those three like this)

This is the continuation of The phone and the shame!AU (but can be read independently) I already mentioned earlier. I had this idea for a long time but I was really inspired for its final form by @fistfuloflightning's art. I hesitated for a while because this story’s tone is less light than the two previous ones (mind the tags) but @dalissy,@inthegardensofourminds and @fistfuloflightning gave me all the encouragement to run wild.

Hope you will have a nice time and don’t hesitate to leave a comment, you would make me very happy.

April 1865

Character: Iba (Hakuoki) x Ellie (OC)

CW: Slight mentions of War; Archery

Word Count: 2170

Comments: I wrote this literally YEARS ago. But! Here it is! It's one of my favorite Ellie fics. I had to edit some of it so hopefully it sounds good! Thanks for reading!!

The morning light shone into the courtyard of the compound men who were still sleeping finally stirred from the futons all while Ellie stood among the men giving orders and directions to her morning class of future marksmen. Some of the lower-ranking men had been startled by her suddenly commanding presence. Up to this point she had been soft, polite, sweet even. Yet in this moment, transgression wasn’t at all tolerated in the presence of the mistress of the courtyard. Her assistants, Shinpachi & Sanosuke, hardly had time to correct the young men before she was on their ass.

“Non! The left!” Her voice barked. The men only quietly obeyed. None wanted to meet the same fate as the first young man this morning who dared comment on the fact that they wouldn’t take orders from a woman.

“And why would I take orders from you? A woman’s job is to serve a man.”

A loud resounding smack was heard as Shinpachi approached. Ellie gripped the man's ear and leaned in so close their noses were almost touching.

“Listen well, you incompetent fuck. What matters is not the sex of the warrior. What matters is their aim and their ability to kill. If you’ve any problems with this I suggest you have a personal chat with Commander Hijikata.”

Shinpachi watched, mouth agape. Sano came over and whistled. “I think we have a new assistant for training.”

Shinpachi just watched on before snapping back to reality and smiling.

“You tell ‘em, lil’ sis.”

Ellie only shot him a grin before turning quickly and rattling out a new order.

Hijikata joined the bustling crowd with a grin on his face. He had witnessed her disciplinary plans and could only watch with a bemused smile. Seeing the four targets set up and men beginning to drift in and out of the way, filled him with a sort of pride. He was the one who gave the okay to organize this little training camp after all. Narrow eyes scanned the courtyard until his gaze finally landed on the dot of red perched on one of the compound walls. They were waiting on one single guest at this point.

Ellie watched the perimeter and checked the wind pull from her perch atop the stone wall. The wind was coming from the east, but rather gently, she decided. Sanosuke joined her shortly after, his broad shoulder reaching the height of her dangling feet. He and Shinpachi had only been allowed to be her aids after they had passed her far too rigorous beginner training in the previous weeks.

“You’re waiting until he gets here to start?”

She smiled down at her fellow redhead. “Of course. I have to keep him on his toes.”

The woman kicked her feet a bit as she waited for an all too familiar Okuzume to show himself. Blue eyes keenly watched the entrance to the courtyard as a familiar shadow appeared behind a particular shoji. Quietly, she nocked an arrow and took her aim. The post she locked her aim on was just next to where he would stand.

Sano looked up at her, suddenly horrified. “Oi, what are you…”

He trailed off as she let the arrow fly, the sound turning heads. The shock caused even more heads to turn as the arrow from her bow landed no further than 12 centimeters from his left ear.

Shaking his head with a bemused smile and sigh, Iba looked at his dear friend. “Hello to you too, Ellie.”

Kotaro immediately was set on edge and started scolding the young woman. “Ellie! You could have seriously hurt someone!”

Hijikata only shook his head, sighing. The woman, on the other hand, spoke to the crowd of men. “Control will be the most crucial thing in your training. Had I no control, our dear guest here would have been dispatched and I would have been too. You will not shoot at others during your training. Do I make myself clear?”

An awestruck hush blanketed the courtyard. Ellie frowned and lifted her chin before bellowing.

“DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?”

A loud affirmative shout filled the courtyard as she jumped down and gestured to her male companions.

“Pass out the Yumi. I’m gonna go welcome our guest.”

Knowing their close relationship, Shinpachi could only bellow with laughter before he barked orders at the men to line up. Ellie slipped the body of her bow across her chest and trotted over before giving Hachiro a tight hug.

“Sorry, I didn’t warn you sooner. I only had the idea this morning.”

He shook his head. “It’s fine. I expect these kinds of shenanigans from you. And besides, I trust no single archer in all of Japan more than I trust you.”

Feeling her face flush from the compliment she elbowed him softly. “I’m supposed to be in charge here. Don’t start flattering me now. I may go easy on you when I teach you.”

His face dropped. “But...I was just invited to watch. Your letter said-”

She smirked at him. “A small white lie. Payback of course.”

She then turned on her heels, his eyes watching her as she walked away, noting the hakama on her legs swaying in the wind despite being bandaged in place. He couldn’t help but marvel at the way her voice, usually so kind and gentle, bounced off of the walls as if it were Hijikata speaking instead of the female.

“OKAY MEN! LISTEN UP!”

~~~

The sun was hot on everyone’s shoulders and necks. By this point, many of the men wondered where this small French woman got her commanding voice. Coupled with the fact that she was supported by Shinpachi and Sanosuke only filled them with more unease. Yet this was the selfsame woman who in the most cocksure manner possible left to and from Edo on diplomacy trips and information exchanges.

Hachiro, on the other hand, watched in complete awe. He was swiftly reminded why he often questioned his desire to protect her. She was clearly well-trained and taught to take care of herself. These trains of thought often stirred warm thoughts of her missing father. They both searched for the missing man nearly constantly. He hadn’t dared to tell her the truth. How was he supposed to tell her that the shogunate was quickly losing interest in their search; that soon they would be the last two to care? He couldn’t let her down but he couldn’t deny that she had likely already noticed his visits and subsequently their trips were becoming less and less frequent.

He just didn’t have it in him to break her heart like that.

The men were dismissed for lunch and subsequently freed from their lessons. Ellie, now glistening with a healthy sheen of sweat, trotted over to Iba smiling widely. “What did you think?”

He smiled at her, passing her a towel. “Your skills are quite impressive. One would think you’ve been doing this your whole life.”

He teased her jovially as she scrunched up her nose.

“I have. My father wouldn’t have had it any other way.” She stuck her tongue out at him.

Shortly after the lighthearted exchange, Inoue brought the pair a small platter of onigiri. After their polite and formal “thank you’s” were shared the pair were left alone in the otherwise vacant courtyard. Picking the nori off of her rice ball, Ellie made a face as she laid it on the plate.

Her male companion shook his head, tousling his brown locks. “You still have no taste for it?”

She stuck her tongue out. “Not at all. If anything it tastes worse every time I try it.”

A chuckle bubbled past his lips as they ate their lunch in peace. It was such a stark contrast to the events of the morning where Ellie - the woman, as Iba knew her, was replaced by Ellie - the Colonel’s daughter, as she was known by all the men here. If he hadn’t known her any better he would have been shocked beyond all measure.

Once Ellie had finished eating she wasted no time standing up and grabbing her personal Yumi, a gift from her companion himself.

“Now. It’s your turn.”

She held the bow out to him. His eyes widened as he saw her smile, kinder still than the one that warped her face in a look of complete satisfaction as men finally understood the bare-bones basics of shooting an arrow.

He lifted both of his hands in front of him, waving them back and forth slightly.

“I'm sure I'll only disappoint you. After all, your shooting is second to none. And I have my katana. I haven't any need for a bow or archery skills."

Ellie pulled her lips back in an unconvinced smile. "Are you scared to shoot a bow?"

Hachiro looked at her, indignant. "I have two blades at my hip. Weapons don't scare me."

She then lifted her chin proudly. "Ohhhh so you're afraid of looking foolish in front of a pretty girl, is that it?"

His cheeks began to flush a rosy shade. That was his fear exactly.

Gathering his dignity he stood, sighing. She certainly knew how to push his buttons. She grabbed the sleeve of his kimono, pulling him towards the middle of the courtyard among the scattered arrows she would have to clean up after the fact. The young man allowed himself to be pulled and placed into position. He never doubted her shooting. He remembered seeing her father train with her.

Anton had been relentless. He would throw cheap pottery scraps for her to shoot and hound her with orders and commands. In those moments she was no different than a soldier in training. Being removed from his memory, the young diplomat sighed as Ellie placed the bow in his hands. She stood in front of him and looked him over with a smile.

"You look so... uncomfortable. I'll go easy on you. I promise. This is more for fun than anything. It's useful to know of course. But… I don’t know. Perhaps I wanted to spend time with my friend."

Her smirk melted into something much softer as she eyed him and helped him nock an arrow.

"Okay. I'm standing behind you. Just pull back and let it go."

Iba pulled the weapon up into the air as he'd seen her do so many times before. Pulling back was difficult. He hadn't expected the string to be so unforgiving. Ellie held back a soft giggle as he tried his best to force the string into position. Once he finally got it pulled back to any extent he let go of the fletching gripped in his fingers.

The pair watched as the arrow, flying in an all too anticlimactic arc, clattered to the ground, staring back as if it were mocking the prestigious swordsman. Sighing, he straightened his shoulders and tried again only to achieve the same result. Pressing a fist to her lips, Ellie nodded as he reached for another arrow she softly stepped towards him.

Feeling her arms securely around him caused Hachiro to freeze a bit, nearly fumbling to grab the arrow. "Here, I'll help you."

Before she did anything she snorted. "Well, first of all, your stance is terrible. Here." Her hands grabbed his hips and adjusted them.

"Your shooting is very loose. You're trying to sword fight with a bow. Tighten up here." She adjusted his right leg.

"But loosen up here." her hand went to his sides.

Her training with the foot soldiers hadn't been nearly this intimate. He was stiff now because she was so close, and maybe it helped his form. He had no idea with his mind as foggy as it was. Shaking his head to collect himself he felt her return to her original position, holding him from behind and supporting the places his hands rested.

"Now pull back."

Pulling the cord was much easier from this angle. She smiled and stepped back.

"Now fire!"

He let go and hit the outermost edge of the target. But it was a hit nonetheless.

"Excellent! Now do it again!" Ellie cheered him on.

Unknowingly his chest puffed out as his ego inflated a bit. Hachiro swiftly and gracefully nocked an arrow and pulled back. It was a bit more difficult but he had barely budged from his position. He couldn't mess up now. He released his fingers and the arrow flew straight and true...right towards the ground.

Ellie giggled as Hachiro let out an exasperated sigh.

"You tilted down unknowingly. It happens. But! I think that's enough fun for today. I'm sure Hijikata wants to hear what we thought of the lesson this morning."

Shaking his head and smiling at her, he happily handed the bow back to her. "That sounds far more pleasant than ruining the landscaping."

Ellie giggled as she slipped the bow around her. "C'mon then. I'll make some tea too. Shimada picked up a really nice new black tea blend."

To botany experts and hakuouki enthusiasts out there, any idea what these are?

from the loading screen of the Toki no Kizuna

Suzumori Yukina's status board

I'm getting around to learning the language, but I keep getting sidetracked. This is present in the game Toki no Kizuna, which is the prequel of Hakuouki in the terms of the demon clans. The titular ten demon clans, Jukkishuu, have this as their insignia - as present in their clothing, banners, and in Suzumori Yukina's status board(?). Does anyone know the significance and symbolism in the culture of this flora?

Other than that, I'm wondering what happened to the council during Edo Era as it seems that after the formation of the group, it eventually sundered? Based on what I've understood when I went into the game blindly, the clans seems to be relatively close then - especially that of Yukimura, Kazama, and Amagiri , they essentially view Amagiri Kazutake as their aniki. Of the central clan, Yase Clan, the clans revered it as a powerful figure considering they do have prophetic visions and ties to the imperial family. For families with such close relationship, its pretty tragic that they ended up separating due to the effects of the Battle of Sekigahara.

In the game, there were also other clans such as the Tsukishima, Shiomi, Kotoura, and Hatsushimo which were part of the council. The clans Nagumo and Oboro were long ostracized by the council due to their affront centuries earlier and thus were considered as a solitary oni. What does this signify when Amagiri Kyujuu decides that if Kazama Chikage were to go to Ezo, he'd be considered as such? Are his actions so grave that he would be relegated to be alike to the families that his ancestors once fought?

In the Chuugoku Region(which would be considered as Choshuu Domain) where the Shiranui Clan resides, they revered them as deities - pretty ironic, though Shiranui Shin does look very pretty to be stated otherwise. There are many more of others that I can mention, but I'll do it on another day.

There's tons of information that can be extracted in TnK for the supernatural side of Hakuouki, it would be good discussion on Chizuru's family. :3

Hakuouki ~The Floating World~ Chap. 8

From the author: It should be obvious because Hakuouki franchise in general isn’t suited for younger audience but just to be sure, please be at least 18 before reading it <3 This fanfic series may contain lots of sensitive topics (including blood, gore, death, smut and so on) so isn’t recomended for readers who may feel hurt by these. But if you are still here and want to enjoy some dark themes with pretty boys and a bit too clever Reader/MC, please have a seat ^^

Chapter 8: Shi

"Are we there yet?" you asked, languidly dragging your feet. You had no idea how long you've been walking like this. Yet, whether it was a few minutes or hours, you felt like a decade has already passed.

"Don't complain. We're almost there," replied Harada with a warm smile.

"I hope so. If not, I might just kick the bucket in the middle of the way..."

When you were unenthusiastically waddling between Harada and Saito, you recalled what happened this morning.

You sluggishly woke up, hearing a loud conversation. You slammed the door open, growling under your breath and only in your nagajuban. Those, who dared to wake you up from your slumber, turned out to be no one but Nagakura, Harada and Heisuke.

"What do you want?" you mumbled half-asleep and mad at the entire world. You even completely ignored the fact that you had no binder on. Your cover was blown up yesterday anyway.

"Umm..."

"Get straight to the point." You rolled your eyes, seeing Heisuke's confusion. Harada was switching his gaze between the boy and you. "What was so important that you couldn't wait and had to woke me up?" you said impatiently.

Nagakura was standing next to Heisuke with crossed elbows, his gaze wandering as if he was only here as his big bad bodyguard. Finally, the one who decided to give up turned out to be Harada as he smacked the youngest in the head. The boy immediately yelled and clutched his pulsing head. Still, he managed to stutter something out.

"I'm sorry! And thanks."

"For what?" you scrunched your eyebrows in consternation.

"You know, back then... When I bumped into you," he stammered out bashfully.

"Ah you mean this," you sighed quietly. "I don't hold a grudge."

"But you wanted to tell about it to Hijikata-san. If it did come out, I could be sentenced to commit seppuku or something," protested Heisuke, fixing his ponytail.

"Believe me or not but you're one of my smallest problems here. I see no point in hindering your life," you responded indifferently. "Besides, aren't you a little short for a samurai?" You cocked your head with disbelief. Did this said seppuku even make any sense? This would be ironic, a sword could be his size after all. In this case, wouldn't it be better to just cut vertically?

"He kinda is." You heard Harada's laugh was soon joined by Nagakura's as the latter started to pat the boy's head.

The rest can be found here (ao3)

Binderary 2023, six months later!

This was my first year participating, and I had just bought a Cricut, so my personal goal was to try as many kinds of titles as I could (and also bind surprise books for my friends, which is why I haven't posted anything until now)

Here's the full collection. I did typeset ahead of time and I might have even printed pages, but starting with folding, all of these were bound in February 2023.

Most of these are fanfic from the Akagami no Shirayukihime fandom (plus one Jane Austen book, one Dragon Age, and two copies of a Hakuoki fic)

Starting with my own fics, I bound some shorter ones as pamphlets:

The covers for all three are scrapbooking cardstock from my local craft store, and they're sewn with leftover embroidery floss.

Hide and Sweets and Inheritance were collected together because they're both about Ryuu and his familial relationship with Obi and Shirayuki. The title is painted in acrylic paint using a stencil. Stencil vinyl tears up cardstock, I learned.

Bad Wagers (Obi/Shirayuki) is permanent vinyl on cardstock, and The Strange Case of the Knight of Inkwells (also Obi/Shirayuki but lightly so) is printed on a separate piece of paper and glued. The permanent vinyl is difficult to place - I ended up doing it letter by letter - and the glued-on extra piece wrinkled the cardstock.

There are two copies of The Image of an Officer (Hakuoki, also by me), one for me and one for the friend I wrote it for. The bookcloth is homemade, and the title iron-on vinyl. One of them shifted, so that's clearly my copy. The Shinsengumi haori pattern was traced on with chalk and hand painted.

So I did learn a lot of lessons about titling, as I hoped I would, and these are the first of my own fics that I've bound. There are an awful lot left to go.

For the fic rec asks! 2, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 14!

🔁 A fic you’ve re-read several times

These days my brain is rotating If The Mind is Willing like a grocery store hot dog. I have had to cut myself off from rereading it for a while after way too many rereads in too short a time. The potential for both extreme cuteness and disaster is off the charts in this Hakuoki modern AU.

😊 A fic that made you smile on a bad day

Bionic Battle Granny always makes me smile. And now it's not just because this is a hoot of a story (Peggy Carter continuing to keep all of SHIELD on their toes into her twilight years) but also I got a gorgeous bound copy of it in an exchange last year and the book makes me smile too.

🥰 A fic that gives you warm fuzzy feelings

what lies beneath (only the truth) is one I always come back to for the warm Obiyuki fuzzies. I will forever be smug about having prompted this one.

👌🏼 A fic someone else recommended to you

Aral Vorkosigan's Dog was part of the Renegade Bindery exchange at the end of last year - someone loved it enough to request it and it sounded intriguing enough that I pulled it up that day. Readers, it was amazing. It's Shards of Honor from Simon Illyan's point of view, and it is seamless.

👽 A fic that isn’t prose (poetry, text fic, etc.)

This probably isn't what the question is asking but it's the closest I have saved - Bakery Enemies. I suspect most people have probably seen this ML comic on Tumblr, but it's complete on AO3 as of just a few days ago.

🤩 A fic that made you SLAM that “subscribe” button

"Begin at the beginning," The King said, - this Twisted Wonderland fic distinguishes itself from the many other plot retellings by giving the Overblot physical consequences. Riddle is blinded by his, and he's the protagonist of the story - navigating through the plot from his point of view and seeing the real dangers to the students is a really unique take.

Hijikata (Hakuoki) - Modern AU - Teacher - Chapter 4

Pairing: Female reader x Hijikata

Warnings: bad language, agressive behavior

Word count: 384

A/N: you can find the previous chapters here. Or if you want to check it out my pinned post, you can find it there as well in the masterlist.

“I see. So you don’t know much about Kondou’s plan either. I think it’s good manners if I answer your questions now, as you answered mine.”

“Very well, I’m just a guidance counselor at an international school in Chiba. I met Kondou two years ago and since then we have gotten in touch through SNS to talk about our schools and sometimes gossip about other people as well.”

“And I was watching you because that day was terrible for me, I was stressed and Kondou swore to me he knew a way to make me smile. He knows I’m single so he thought it was a good idea to show a ikemen to brighten my day. That’s where you came in.”

“Are you fucking serious? What were you two thinking?” Hijikata shouts incredulously. “You gotta be kidding me. I can’t believe Kondou used me to please you.”

“Well… I wouldn’t put it that way.”

“But if you are taken or something I apologize for causing any trouble to you, Hijikata. I didn't want to hit on you that day. Kondou was just being a nice friend, that’s all.”

*sigh* “As long as you don’t cause any trouble to Kondou or to our school’s reputation I don’t give a shit about your and his stupid ideas.”

“Ahah I’ll keep that in mind. But Kondou and I only have great ideas!” “But why were you so brute with me?”

“I don’t trust people easily. You were a stranger that could potentially be scheming something against us.”

“Oh… that explains a lot then.”

The tension inside the Lexus is no longer present, but silence once more persists after solving your quarrels.

This time though, Hijikata doesn’t seem interested in asking other questions and leaves you alone playing on your phone.

Hijikata only talks to you one more time - to show you that your hotel is just ahead.

In your room, after taking a well-deserved shower, you see that Kondou texted you. As expected of him, he was concerned about you but he also wanted to ask if something happened between Hijikata and you.

Your message was short, but straight to the point: “Kondou, your friend is brute and rude. But he is indeed someone you can count on. A handful hot guy that unintentionally captivates women.”
