Hello! If you don't mind, could I request J, N, Q, R and T for the sfw alphabet with Kenshin, Motonari and Kicho? Thank you very much!♡

| | J, N, Q, R and T for Kenshin and Kichou | |

Suitor(s): Kenshin and Kichou

TW: Jealousy, possessiveness, yandere mindset, mentions of trauma, mentions of loss of a loved one, death, murder, alcohol mention, food mention, spoilers for Kenshin (?)

Notes: ✨The murder husbands✨ || Some bits of this are a little bit rushed but I hope it's not too noticeable because these are always LONG and also Kicho is based mostly off of various things and personal headcanons I have for him because Kicho doesn't have a route so he might be kinda ooc- || I tried so hard to do Motonari but I honestly just couldn’t, it was like some kind of internal battle but I was just never happy with how it turned out so my apologise 🙏

| | Kenshin | |

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

♡ He is arguably the most jealous of all of the warlords considering certain events

♡ He's spent so long being scared to lose everyone close to him that he really can't help but feel threatened by anything, no matter how small, that may take you away from him

♡ He trusts in you and the fact that you would never leave, at least after a certain point, but he just doesn't trust anyone else, something that he is subconsciously aware is ridiculous because he trusts all of his soldiers and vassals with his life - quite literally - every few days

♡ He doesn't even like the idea of other people so much as seeing you because he feels so deeply for you

♡ As a result of this, he's worried about how easily other people might find themselves enamoured with you and cannot bear the idea of that ever happening because you are his to love. Not anyone else's

♡ He also knows that other people would want to take you for themselves as a prize since Kenshin is Kenshin and has more than his fair share of people who want everything that he has

♡ He's very open about his jealousy though he'll never actually verbally admit it and will hide you away using his cape whenever he does something like hug or kiss you and will always keep a hand on you, whether it he on your waist, holding your hand, you just always needs to be reassured that your aren't going anywhere at least when his jealousy is more bearable for him

♡ Other times, he will find himself leading you away from a room or just taking you by the hand and taking the two of you away from everyone, keeping the two of you confined so only he can be the one to see you and hear your voice

♡ He knows that he can't - or at least shouldn't - lock you away but it doesn't mean that he doesn't get very tempted to. At times he'll tell you that he wishes that he could just steal you away and keep you, like a bird in a cage

♡ It makes him feel like he'll be able to protect you and he gets this slightly scary far away look in his eyes while he says it but you look at him and he knows that he can’t and shouldn’t push you that far. He could never do that to you again

♡ He's not one to be against getting violent either. There's no number of people who haven't gotten close to losing limbs or lives for getting too close to you. It’s you that gives him the self control not to go that far

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)

♡ Nights with Kenshin usually consist of falling asleep before he gets back and then feeling him slip in beside you and have his arms wrap around your form though he does make an effort to be back to you before you're asleep, not being all too fond of the idea of you waiting up for him or him not being near you while you're alone in your room

♡ He spends quite some time just listening to you talk before the both of you change for the night, your voice soothing to him as it's drawn out by the peaceful night and his clear interest in your life and perhaps a cup of sake though he'll often find himself declining the drink when he's with you

♡ A cup of tea will instead often accompany your nights, a nice way to clear your throat and sooth tense muscles while he allows the himself to indulge in your thoughts and feelings and his own

♡ Your voice is perhaps the one thing that he would never get tired of despite the calm state that it lulls him into, a tired smile pulling at his lips as he listens to you and asks the occasional question

♡ It's the only time that you really get to see him so relaxed as you know that the second that you fall asleep he'll be on alert until he finally sleeps himself

♡ This holds true as he holds you oh so gently as you lay beside him and he rubs light circles into your skin as you fall asleep while he stays awake for a little while more, reassuring himself with your steady breathing before he falls asleep himself

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

♡ Kenshin makes an effort to remember everything about you and gets quite frustrated with himself when he can't remember certain details

♡ The way that he ensures that he keeps details about you in his head, even if you don’t notice it, shows a kind if devotion that you will rarely ever see. From the way that his eyes soften but gaze stays strong to take in every bit of you - the direction that you look or the way that your head subconsciously tilts, the way that you react to certain things like smells or sights - to the way that question after question leaves his lips

♡ Less so an actual continuous stream of questions but questions that he knows will get you talking

♡ He knows that he just won't be able to remember everything but he does try because you're important to him and he wants to do things that'll make you happy and avoid things that'll make you sad

♡ As a general rule, he mostly remembers things that affect your mood. He isn't sure why, but he finds himself really attuned to your mood and can tell the little shifts in it (even if he's not sure what emotion it's shifting towards) and ends up relating certain pieces of information with your mood

♡ Anything that makes you smile stays tucked away in the back of his mind along side anything that draws out a visible negative reaction from you

♡ He'll find random tidbits of information and various memories coming to the forefront of his mind whenever your in certain moods as well and it kind of just sticks like that

R = Remember (What is their favourite moment in your relationship?)

♡ When he's finally able to separate you from Ishime (is that how you spell her name?)

♡ It's technically before your relationship but honestly is probably his favourite moment regardless. He doesn't think he could choose one during your relationship

♡ Before that, he'd struggled to be able to allow himself to see you two as two different people. He knew that you both were, he was well aware of it, but occasionally the two of you would merge in his mind and he would find certain fears resurfacing

♡ Ishime wasn't as strong as you nor did she share your mindset and ideas, but it was that fear that kept him from being able to fully differentiate the two of you and your possible fate

♡ It's what he would describe as a show of your strength, the strength of your will, that forces him to realise. He sees you and hears you and not once does the thought is Ishime cross his mind nor her memory

♡ It's like a blurring film had been removed from his eyes and he he's never seen you clearer before and, in all honesty, he hadn't

♡ His fear melts away for a second and he finds himself genuinely feeling free to be around you, without that fear that you'll force yourself away from him

♡ He knows that, in comparison to him, you're delicate, but that thought leaves his mind as he sees you as perhaps stronger than anyone he's ever met before. Someone who keeps surviving in this ear that takes away anything that isn't strong enough to survive

♡ And he adores it. The freedom he feels as he spends that time with him lightens his heart and he really sees you for you and I think that perhaps that was when he really fell

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

♡ Kenshin puts in an almost ridiculous amount of effort into everything but it's genuinely just the regular standard for him

♡ He has a number of responsibilities already and he needs to make sure that he completes them all to a certain standard for the sake of his people so it's only expected that he holds himself to this same standard and then some when it comes to you

♡ He puts you on a pedestal, believing that you only deserve the best, and you truly do, but his best is borderline perfection at least in the actual preparation and domestic regard

♡ Whole he's still getting used to actually consciously doing these things, he catches on very quickly but things like dates and anniversaries are another matter

♡ Like I said, the actual preparation is perfect once it gets down to it but he gets a little antsy about things like gifts and how to actually celebrate things with you and where to take you

♡ He has no experience with these things so he's a little lost but he's got the spirit and the dedication

♡ He'll take note of things you like and incorporate them into activities for you and it's genuinely a very exhausting process but he doesn't seem to mind

♡ He puts in as much effort as he can for you and it shows once you look a little closer

| | Kichou | |

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

♡ You'd think he wouldn't get jealous and it is true that he has the self assurance in himself and trust in you to not to get jealous but there are times where he just needs to keep everyone and everything away from you but that is fairly rare

♡ As a general rule, he sees being overly jealous as something that's unnecessary because he's very goal driven

♡ Because of this, he doesn't really allow himself to feel much that would skew how he sees people or acts so he isn't one to often act on his jealousy either when he does feel it on the rare occasion

♡ Because of his aforementioned confidence in you and himself but also because he doesnt see the feeling as being something that he wants to allow himself to feel because he finds it 'unnecessary' in a sense due to all too much emotional repression

♡ When he is jealous, he honestly just tried to get rid of whatever is making him jealous. His glaring is usually enough to be rid of any unwanted individuals talking to you but he's too prideful to go much further than that

♡ That is unless you count taking your attention and adamantly ignoring whoever he's feeling jealousy until they bring attention to themselves at which point he will dismiss their attempts to talk to you and practically force them to leave

♡ They're not worth either of your time so there's no reason to entertain them at all. He's not necessarily sorry about it either, even when you ask him about it or get upset over his behaviour

♡ He'll make it up to you in whatever way you'll like but he doesn't see what was wrong with what he did and his remorse is nonexistent

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)

♡ Kicho is very clearly a person who struggles with sleep, so many nights with him will end with you asleep while he has a few cups of tea to try and get himself to sleep

♡ Like Kenshin, he's often late to come back and late to sleep regardless so you will often find yourself going the night without seeing him though these nights become fewer as time goes on

♡ He strikes me as the kind of person to do a fair bit of self care at night and will share you into this habit, him often being the one to care for your hair and set up a very drowsy atmosphere

♡ He too likes to talk to you before the two of you go to sleep, sharing your experiences and your thoughts about the day

♡ However, they will largely be spent in silence with him as he tries to get you to sleep because he doesn't want you to get too invested in the conversation while you're supposed to be sleeping

♡ It will often become something of a competition to see who can get the other to sleep first for the sake of both of your health's which Kicho will mostly win though he appreciates your efforts

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

♡ He doesn’t put in any kind of special effort into remembering things about you, he’s just so sure of himself and his memory that he knows that there is no chance that he could forget anything to do with you

♡ The fact that he remembers your favourite foods, fabrics, colours and more seems to be purely by his own will to remember those things even if he doesn’t do so conciously because, a lot of the time, these things will come up briefly or when he’s busy and you happen to mention them in passing

♡ Sometimes even he doesn’t realise that he’s remembered these things and you can see it when he’s tired and has his guard down in the way that his voice trails off when he says something about you and his brows furrow as if he’s trying to confirm to himself whether it’s true

♡ He becomes more sure of himself in these moments when you smile in surprise at the fact that he remembered and it becomes more of a usual thing for him to randomly do things relating to things that you’ve told him like bring you a snack that you said you liked and such

♡ He is also, however, Mitsuhide’s cousin and a certified tease and will remember any time that you’ve tripped, pronounced something miserably wrong, etc, etc and, while he will never say it, he will give you an amused look that conveys that he’s recalling one of those memories whenever you do something that reminds him of them

R = Remember (What is their favourite moment in your relationship?)

♡ He remembers laying beside you, not touching you and the cover that you were both sharing dipping between the two of you while you slept and he fought the urge to get up and work because he wasn’t used to having so much tome as to be able to sleep before the sun was up

♡ It was the first time that you had insisted that he come to sleep as well rather than just accept it when he said that he would ‘in a moment’ and then slept after the sun came up and woke up before you had even risen yourself

♡ He remembers feeling so comfortable for once, like he actually wanted to sleep and indulge for a moment

♡ Like it wasn’t just something that he had to do for the sake of not collapsing half way through the day and he liked it

♡ It made him feel slightly guilty, to indulge in comfort that he usually denied himself, but he remembers how he felt when he slept - so easily when he shut his eyes and the blanket of sleep wrapped around him so quickly - and he doesn’t think he’s ever slept so well in years

♡ It’s a moment that means much more to him than even he expected but the vulnerability that he felt, exposed only to himself with you asleep beside him - not bearing witness to it but your presence still a comfort to him - had him feeling so secure the next morning when he woke up only a little before you and getting to see your tired look of surprise when you say him still beside you

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

♡ He acts like he wouldn't put in much effort but he puts in a lot more effort than you would know, at least for special occasions

♡ Dates, however, a typically a little more on the casual side and whenever the two of you have the time. As much as he wants to make them meaningful, it's a little difficult when you're as busy as he is

♡ He already has a certain standard for every day tasks and this doesn't waver ever so he's always a massive help with domestic tasks

♡ He's quite adept in most areas of domestic living and definitely knows how to cook on accounts of his ideals and his ideas that people should know how to survive, with cooking being a basic survival skill that becomes slightly more enjoyable for him through Motonari

♡ Same applies when it comes to you who he values enough to hold above most of these tasks so he actually does put a lot of effort into planned dates but will brush them off like it was nothing

♡ It was a lot though, he almost always finds himself getting frustrated planning them because it isn't going as he wanted them to but all of those frustrations will leave him if you're happy by the end of it

TWO LOVERS DRENCHED IN DEVOTION

Alternate title: Soaked Sweethearts

This is simply a fan translation of the game. Translations may not always capture the exact nuances or tone of the original text. Expect grammatical errors.

I turned my gaze outside the window upon hearing the sound of the rushing wind.

(It's windy today.)

I stopped sewing and watched the trees sway.

Kicho: "Mai, can I come in?"

Mai: "Sure. Something smells nice."

Kicho: "I made some tea. How about taking a break together?"

Mai: "Okay. Thanks!"

Putting my sewing kit back on the shelf, I sat with Kicho at the table, and he gracefully poured tea into the teacups.

(Being alone with my lover like this is so blissful.)

Kicho: "Are you really that happy?"

Mai: "Huh? Did I say it out loud?"

Kicho: "No, even without saying anything, I can tell just by looking at your face."

(It must have been obvious that he could tell so easily.)

Kicho: "Why are you turning to the side?"

Mai: "Because I'm embarrassed about having my feelings read."

Kicho: "It's too late to be feeling shy now."

Feeling my cheeks getting warm, I took a sip of the warm tea he handed me, and a sweet, familiar scent tickled my nose.

(Huh?)

Mai: "This has honey in it, doesn't it?"

Kicho: "Yeah. I remember seeing someone drizzle it into tea back in the future."

Kicho: "Do you like it?"

Mai: "Yes, I can even savor the aroma."

Kicho: "I see."

(If he wasn't here, I wouldn't be able to drink it in this era.)

With every sip, the sweetness of the honey soothed my heart.

Mai: "It's delicious. Can I have another cup later?"

Kicho: "Of course. I added it to make you happy. Feel free to drink as much as you want."

(Ah, he smiled.)

My soft gaze met his emerald eyes, and my heart beat faster.

Mai: "This tea tastes even better because I'm sharing it with you."

Kicho: "……..."

Kicho: "You really say the cutest things."

Gently, he reached his hand out and stroked my cheek.

(Hehe. It tickles.)

Mai: "By the way, it's rare to see you taking a break at this hour."

Kicho: "One business negotiation got canceled."

Mai: "So you came to see me in your free time?"

Kicho: "Of course."

(He's so straightforward.)

Heat spread to my cheeks again with happiness and embarrassment.

Afterward, we exchanged plans for the week and engaged in small talk while enjoying the tea.

(Since we’re both busy, it looks like it’ll be just another ordinary day.)

That’s why sharing a warm cup of tea and talking like this felt so precious.

Kicho: “Mai, how about going somewhere on our next day off?”

Mai: “Really? Okay!”

Kicho: “Then choose where you want to go.”

Suddenly, a knocking sound interrupted our conversation.

Subordinate’s voice: “Excuse me. Lord Kicho, are you here?”

(It seems like he’s looking for Kicho.)

Kicho: “I’m here. What is it?”

Subordinate’s voice: “We need you to handle an urgent matter at the port.”

Kicho: “I’ll be right there.”

Subordinate’s voice: “Yes, sir.”

Kicho stood up and returned the tea set to the tray.

Mai: “Are you heading to the port now?”

Kicho: “Yeah. I’ll probably be home late.”

Kicho: “By the way, about our previous conversation, think about the place you want to go.”

(Even though he’s so busy, he still cares about me.)

Mai: “Okay, I’m looking forward to it.”

Kicho: “Yeah, me too.”

I saw him off as he left the room, then returned to work.

(I wonder where we should go on our outing.)

A few hours later一

(I did a great job today.)

Having completed my work quota, I stretched my body and realized that the outside had already become completely dark.

As I turned on the lights, it started to rain.

(Come to think of it, Kicho went to the port.)

(It’s raining. I hope he’s okay.)

(He said he’d be late, so I should probably bring him an umbrella and pick him up.)

I hurried out of the room and bumped into someone with a thud.

Kicho: “Mai, where are you going?”

Mai: “Kicho? You’re back?”

Kicho: “Just now.”

(He’s not drenched.)

(I’m glad he made it back to the trading post before the rain started. But...)

Kicho: “........”

His expression was so tense.

(Did something happen?)

Kicho: “I’ll be working late tonight. You should go to bed first.”

Kicho: “I’ll be in the reception room, so if you need anything, just call me.”

Mai: “Okay.”

I nodded, and he walked away.

(I'm curious, but I guess it's better if I'm not by his side tonight.)

The next afternoon, I left the room to go to the market to buy some fabrics.

(In the end, I couldn't see him this morning either. I wonder what happened after that.)

As I left the room, I heard whispers from the end of the hallway.

Kicho's Subordinate 1: "Is that true?"

Kicho's Subordinate 2: "Yeah. It looks like there's a spy targeting Lord Kicho among those who visited the trading post."

(What!?)

The unexpected words left me breathless.

(A spy targeting Kicho? Who on earth?)

Even after his subordinates left, I couldn't move from that spot.

Kicho: "Mai."

Mai: "........."

I snapped back to reality when someone called my name.

I looked at the source of the voice and saw Kicho staring at me.

Mai: "Are you being targeted by a spy?"

Kicho: "It looks like you already heard about it."

Mai: "Yes. Is it true that there's someone in this trading post who is after you?"

He frowned and let out a small sigh.

Kicho: "I have such information, but I still don't know who the spy is."

Mai: "So, it's true after all."

Kicho: "Sorry for surprising you. But don't worry, it will be over soon."

Kicho: "You can continue to live normally without any concerns."

(I understand that he's trying to reassure me, but...)

I couldn't nod sincerely because his tense expression from last night crossed my mind.

Mai: "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Kicho: "Don't try doing anything stupid. Besides, I'm pretty good at finding spies, especially those from Azuchi."

He chuckled, and I pursed my lips.

Mai: "Are you talking about me!?"

(I want him to take me seriously, not make fun of me.)

Just as I was about to try again to offer my help一

Kicho: "Are you really that worried?"

Mai: "Eh? Ah..."

I felt my feet gently lift off the ground.

With one arm holding me, he opened the door to my room.

(Whoa!)

As soon as he entered the room, he closed the door behind him.

Kicho: "There's no need for you to be anxious."

Mai: "Nnn..."

He embraced me in his arms, and our lips met abruptly.

(Why did this happen so suddenly?)

He slowly slipped his tongue in and entwined it with mine, slowly melting me.

Unable to stand, I collapsed into Kicho, and the arm around my waist supported me.

Kicho: "No matter what happens, I will never let any harm come to you."

Kicho: "I'm currently investigating the identity of the spy, so it's only a matter of time until I find out."

Mai: "Ah…nnn…"

He deepened the kiss as if to reassure me.

(No, that's not it.)

(What I'm worried about is not myself, but him.)

He's a kind person, but it's true that he has earned some resentment through his past actions.

(If something happens to him…)

Even thinking that, my objections were sealed with a kiss, preventing me from saying a word.

Kicho: "It's about time."

He whispered this reluctantly and released his arm from me.

Breathing out a sigh, we gazed at each other, and someone knocked at the door.

Subordinate: "Lord Kicho."

Kicho: "I know."

Kicho: "Then Mai, I'll be going now."

After lightly stroking my head, he disappeared beyond the door.

(I couldn't convey anything.)

I was left standing there, my cheeks flushed.

The next day, after finishing my errands and leaving the shop一

(Huh? You're kidding, right?)
