My You
Yosuke Sagara | Kings of Paradise
a/n: HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY @hellocupie its yosuke’s wife’s day fr i love you so fucking omg thank you for being my favourite proof reader, listening to my rants 24/7, keeping up with my shit show i love you <3 this was done last minute im sorry its not the best but this was the least i could do for everything youve done for me! have the best time of ur life!!!
Impulse shopping is a sport and if buying the first thing that reminds Yosuke of his wife whenever he sets his eyes on something impulse shopping, then Yosuke is a champion. There was no other way to justify the 300 squishmallows and plushies he bought simply because he thought that they looked like his adorable wife.
Yosuke, with the worker’s from the shop he practically emptied, could barely see what’s in front of them due to the gigantic pile of plushies in their arms as they manoeuvred through the mall to the parking lot. This was all part of Yosuke’s grand scheme for his wife’s perfect birthday.
He quickly rushed back into the mall after putting the other stuff in his car, to the jewellery store that had caught his eye when he was leaving. He was surfing through the various chains and bracelets but nothing appealed to him. He was just about to leave the store when his eyes landed on a pair of bracelets. It was a couple’s set and Yosuke was more or less convinced that this was meant for him and (Y/N). He quickly got it packed in their nicest packaging, exited the mall and sped away to complete the last of his preparations.
It was 10:00 am by the time Yosuke had gotten out of bed and proceeded to wake (Y/N) up too. He kissed her on the lips wishing her a happy birthday and to say he was overflowing with joy when he saw her smile would be an understatement. But this was just the beginning of his plans so he urged (Y/N) out of the bed and into the bathroom.
The minute she got out of the bath, Yosuke put a blindfold on (Y/N)’s eyes and led to her to the unused guest room in their home. When he undid the blindfold from her eyes and she took a good look at the room, (Y/N) started at at the humongous amount of plushies strewn all across the room. They were all of different sizes and colours, each dissimilar from the other. She turned her head towards Yosuke, jaw slack and eyes widened. This was a dream come true.
“Oh i’m not done yet.” Yosuke smirked and whisked her away out to the entrance.
They eventually set off in his car. (Y/N) kept asking him where they were going but Yosuke kept shushing her. Their playful banter kept the atmosphere lively and the two hours passed by quickly. They eventually reached the outskirts of the city to a cottage with a stream in view. The place looked warm and cozy, a serene place away from the prying eyes of the world.
Yosuke led (Y/N) in and she gaped at the skillfully assembled party decorations. The venue looked like it was for a massive party but it really was just the two of them and they wouldn’t have preferred it any other way.
“This is amazing, Yosuke. Thank you so much!’” (Y/N) turned towards Yosuke as he grabbed her hand and led her inside.
“You haven’t seen the best part yet.” He flashed a smile, settled her on the sofa and made his way to the kitchen. The sounds of kitchen utensils being put to work made it clear that he was cooking for them and (Y/N)’s heart overflowed with love for the man and the efforts he put into making her day better.
Fifteen minutes later, he emerged from the kitchen and once again, grabbed her hand and led her to the dining table.
The aroma of the assortment of side dishes and the steak enticed a grumble from their stomachs and (Y/N) had to ask him if he did all of this himself, to which he nodded. Her eyes visibly brightened when she tasted Yosuke’s cooking again and he melted at the sight. They relished in the pleasant atmosphere and appetising food and before long, the sky had turned orange.
“So, how would you rate my cooking this time?” Yosuke asked with bated breath, (Y/N) in his arms as they got comfortable on the couch.
“An 87/100?” (Y/N) grinned at Yosuke as he feigned mock offense.
“87?! But I put in so much love!” He huffed and buried his face in her hair causing (Y/N) to laugh heartily.
“You got a 70 last time! Fine, i’ll give you five extra points for that.” (Y/N) exclaimed and Yosuke instantly perked up, hugging her a little tighter.
“Did you practice?” (Y/N) asked and Yosuke hummed in response.
“I’ve been practicing to get the steak perfect for over two weeks now.” He replied. He was about to give her a quick kiss and remembered the gift he had gotten her so he quickly detangled their legs and rushed to the kitchen a second time leaving a confused (Y/N) behind.
Yosuke, with a party hat on his head and a cake in his hand, came out of the kitchen singing the birthday song. (Y/N) was beaming and Yosuke could not restrain himself from grabbing her face and kissing her adorable face right there. The cake was pink and had little red hearts on it. It was lovely, just like his wife.
(Y/N) cut the cake while they blew the candles out together. She could not ask for a more perfect day when Yosuke took the gift bag off his wrist and handed it to (Y/N), urging her to open it.
(Y/N) opened the velvet box and gazed at a pair of bracelets in absolute awe. They were platinum bracelets, with a star on one piece and a moon on the other. Yosuke took the star bracelet out of its box and put it on (Y/N)’s wrist. The star glimmered under the dim light of the living room. She was snapped out of her trance when Yosuke spoke up.
“They say the moon feels lonely without its stars.” He grabbed the moon bracelet and put it on his own wrist.
“A night sky is complete when the moon is surrounded by the stars.” He clasped her hands into his own ans gazed in her eyes. (Y/N) could see an emotion in Yosuke’s she couldn’t put a word on. This seriousness seemed out of character for Yosuke and she couldn’t help but tear up.
“You’re the radiant star that makes my starry sky complete, (Y/N). When you’re not around me, I feel lonely. The sense of wholeness when we’re together, when we’re one, is so overwhelmingly euphoric I fell in love with you all over again. Thank you for staying with me against all odds. Thank you for being born. Thank you, for brightening up my days and nights.” Tears were flowing down (Y/N)’s face at this point and Yosuke reached up to wipe them off.
“I love you, (Y/N). You complete me.” A dazzling smile erupted on his face as (Y/N) embraced him, whispering sweet words of adoration and affection for the man.
With their hearts content and bodies united, (Y/N) and Yosuke spent the after hours of her birthday tangled up with each other. They basked in each other’s presence, affirming their love once again.

At first, I was anxious to play Yosuke’s route, because he was so cold, callous, and manipulative.
But it turns out that he’s just three toddlers in a trench coat.

Yosuke Sagara's relationship with food from the point of view of someone with the same problem
(I can't believe I'm rewriting it after attempting to write it more than five times in the past few months.)
So, @sophiie2000 asked me how I came up with my ideas. Thanks to her question, I decided that maybe it's not such a bad thing to tackle this topic. Thank you for indirectly influencing me to do this.
TW: Unhealthy relationship with food
Author's note: I have never been diagnosed with anything, nor do I have enough medical knowledge to diagnose someone else or a character. Also, I read Yosuke's route more than three years ago, so I don't remember every detail. There'll be spoilers for seasons 1 and 2. I have never said it in years, yet keep in mind that I may be fluent in English, but it's not my first language, and this is a topic I never talk about, so it's hard for me to formulate my ideas in any language that I know.
Now, a little bit of context. Kings of Paradise tackles some controversial themes, one being Yosuke Sagara's unhealthy relationship with food.
So, what does Yosuke has? From what it's seen in the game, he can't eat home-cooked food due to his relationship with his stepmother. Every time he does it for work, he feels physically ill and disappears for a few days. When he and MC finally start dating, MC helps him to go through this. She becomes the first person whose homemade meals he can eat. And she also helps him with his relationship with his parents. Correct me if I am wrong in any way. Yet, generally speaking, that's what happens.
Now, to the details. Why do I think this is the most relatable thing I have read in a Voltage Inc game? (However, my case is a little bit different.)
There are a few things that trigger me in games. I can read a lot of gore and content warning things. I think they have to be depicted in fiction accurately. Yes, we have suicide cases in real life, and showing one in fiction without romanticizing it, can help people understand it better. However, I understand why people don't like to read about these things. And out of all my posts, this is the hardest for me to write because I feel very guilty and anxious due to it.
A bit of my background: I used to live with my parents at my grandparents' house, and I didn't have a good relationship with them. That's why I have never eaten anything made by them. As a kid, I thought I couldn't eat food made by people with whom I had a bad relationship because they wouldn't be happy seeing me eating it.
As you can see, Yosuke and I have nearly the same roots of the problem. Both our problems come from childhood due to someone with whom we haven't had the best relationship. I don't remember details from Yosuke's stories, yet I think he said something about not feeling loved by his stepmother.
The next step is how the unhealthy relationship with food presents itself. And that was where the differences began and why it was hard for me for years to understand that something wasn't working as it had to. When I read Yosuke's story for the first time, I was 16 or 17, and I lived with my parents with whom I have a very good relationship. Yes, my problem has roots in childhood, but it's regarding my grandparents with whom we don't live for more than seven years already. Even at 16-17, I felt that Yosuke's case hit home a little bit closer than healthier. However, I haven't had proof. I don't like to eat food made by others because I think it's an inconvenience for them to feed me too. But, due to my politeness, I still did it. I understood it was hard to do it at 18 when I had my second boyfriend. I used to visit him and his family and sleep there. But it was hard for me to ask for food, even if we were close. And every time they asked me if I was hungry, I said no. Sometimes, I asked him to drive me back home only because I wanted to eat but didn't want to ask for food from him. I ate there. Yet, usually not enough, and felt guilty about it.
Also, it's depicted how Yosuke has to take some time for himself after eating food made by others. I don't have this thing, nor do I start to feel ill. I psychologically feel guilty. But knowing how our brain works, Yosuke probably has a nocebo reaction.
When did I understand that everything is worse than I thought? This year. I live with my fantastic roommate from the last year. Dang, she's perfect. I can't find words good enough to describe her. We have similar personalities and get along very well. We even joined our beds in the dorms. And our original plan was to cook together because we have to pay a lot of money for the dorms, and if we cook together, it's cheaper. As you can imagine, because of this I have understood what's wrong with me.
For a few months, we cooked together. However, as time passed, I understood that I was eating worse than in the past two years of university when I cooked alone. And I'm a person who hates cooking. It didn't click at first because it was already a habit. But then, I understood that I couldn't eat without her the food we made together. I felt like eating her food, and if I did it, she wouldn't have what to eat later. The bigger problem was that I couldn't just ask her for permission because I felt like forcing her to give me the food. The pick of this was when I had an entire mental breakdown because I knew I wouldn't have access to food for a day, and she took with her the food that we prepared for us to take to the university, so that meant that it was her food now and I wouldn't have what to eat. When I asked her why she did it, she told me that I have to change my way of thinking because it was unhealthy for me. Now we don't cook together, but we share the food. However, one of the reasons I was happy to go home for the holidays this year was to have access to food I could eat. And I am a person who doesn't eat a lot. That blew my mind and made me understand that an unhealthy relationship with food comes in many forms.
So, as you can see, Yosuke and I have similar roots but different mechanisms.
The last thing I want to compare is how he solved it. It's a thing that I have mixed feelings about. From what I remember, MC was the main force that helped Yosuke. I don't think he saw a specialist regarding this problem. That's what doesn't stand right with me. As my boss at Suicide Prevention Line says: "You can solve some of your problems by yourself. However, it's harder. And why do it this way when you can see a specialist?"
I have my former roommate from my first year, that is my best friend now. (Not the one I was talking about earlier.) And aside from my parents, she is the only one I can eat from without showing signs of an unhealthy relationship with food. I can eat her food without asking her or without feeling guilty. That's probably because she ate all my food while I was away for a few months, and now I don't feel so guilty to do the same thing for her. Or maybe because we are so close, and she found a way to convince me to do it. So, yes. Theoretically, it's possible to get rid of this in Yosuke's way, but it didn't work 100% for me. It worked only once out of all the cases that I had encountered.
I don't know if it is useful for you. But if anyone needs to see that they are not alone and it's not only in their mind, I hope my story helps you. It still doesn't have an end. However, I promise that sooner or later, it will have it. I'll go to therapy when I have money for this, and if I remember, I'll write the continuation of this post. I hope I didn't bore you too much.
Thank you for listening to my Ted-Talk, I think.
Probably I had to write something like this for myself.

Why KoP guys shouldn't be a country's PM/President
I'm a polsci student so don't come @ me. Also, I mean no harm. Also truth be told, I have an event tomorrow and this idea popped into my brain while I was preparing a to-do list, staring at my laptop's screen
ANYWAY Taki Kozaki : The middle class would be sick of him, ngl. He'd be pro-capitalism and free market, but would also want a welfare state because the man cares. HOWEVER, in-between catering to the rich and making policies for the poor, he'd forget the sandwiched middle class. They'd probably have to pay extra taxes to make up for all those policies for the economically weaker sections. AND LETS NOT EVEN T A L K about reservation. Poor them. Kiyohito Shirakami : No one enters his country. His foreign policies would be shit because he'd be unwilling to TALK to any other country's leader. In addition, I have a feeling he'd be so pro-environment that he'd ban fertilizers all of a sudden, bringing the agricultural output for a country down in a FLASH. No agriculture, and no food from outside because he's not willing to seek help. He'd actually probably go to UN and give the other's a piece of his mind. That's going to backfire. Obviously. Shun Randoh : Would declare too many holidays. ESPECIALLY during Valentine's week. This man would want national holidays on Teddy Day, Rose Day, Chocolate Day, and God-Knows-What-The-Heck-Else Day. All production would come at a complete standstill, and good luck to earnings if that happens. Basically, this man would bring Lockdown 500.0 in the name of love (and cinematography). Yosuke Sagara : Would be way too-pro capitalism. The economic gap between the rich and poor would increase even though the GDP would be high. Everything would probably be privatized, and privates run for profits, so the one's who don't have enough money would not be able to get a LOT of service. No welfare state for this man. Kaisei Kuon : Would give too many subsidies. Electricity free, water free, travel for women free - while it's good, it would drive the country into a straight-up financial crisis. He also seems like the type of guy who'd wake up one day and decide to do the odd-even scheme to control pollution, wherein cars with number plates ending on odd numbers drive on odd days and cards with number plates ending on even numbers drive on even days.
I dont even know what made me write this, or come back here. But if you're reading this, thank you <3
