Originally, this was going to be about Momo's fighting style, & it still is to an extent, but it became more about how ruthless Momo is.

Momo primarily relies on guerilla warfare. I think most people understand what guerilla warfare is, but I'll give a rundown of what I've gleaned to be its basics: sabotage, raids, ambushes, terrorism, hit & run, petty warfare, etc.

Some of this doesn't apply to Momo. I don't qualify Momo as a terrorist the way white nationalist groups, Islamic extremists, or private security agencies like the Wagner Group are. I think the Gotei as an institution is Horrible, but let's be real, Momo hasn't had the opportunity to enact or be complicit in that shit the way Sousuke, Genryusai, Retsu, Kenpachi, & Mayuri would be, & I don't think she would knowingly do so either, given her internal conflict over fighting Toushirou in chapter 131.

I'll look at it later how this encounter is unusual for Momo. However, the point as of now is to ascertain Momo isn't blase about the use of violence. Why else would she be weeping when she wholeheartedly believes she's avenging a loved one? It's sufficient evidence for a conscience.

Her jail brake in chapter 127 lends credence to this as well. Like, look at what she did in chapter 129.

Momo very easily could've killed this man. She could've blown a hole through him as easily as she blew through several iron bars & left no witnesses. But she didn't.

I think it's safe to say Momo has a conscience & isn't a terrorist.

However, she does use guerilla warfare.

Momo set traps & ambushes. Most famously, Momo sets up a web of kidou to incinerate the Tres Beastias in 334.

Like, there's a lot that's impressive about this shit: the scale of it, the fact she's able to set it up where no one is caught in it before the right moment, the fact she's ENTIRELY undetected by like two dozen people while setting it up.

However, Momo is mostly seen ambushing people. We see in chapter 333 that her entrance is an ambush.

This is the first time we see her ambush, but it isn't the last.

In chapter 556, Momo ambushes Bambietta after Shinji is incapacitated.

We see her ambush, like, a half dozen Soldat to save Marechiyo in chapter 581 as well.

No forewarning. Just a remorseless, summary execution.

& like, as a small sidebar, this isn't out of character for her. In chapter 335, Momo explains her kidou net, but pay attention to her expressions.

Momo is entirely unbothered that she's incinerated three people. Like, she's smiling. I know she's unwell at this point & I know it's war, but she's in the same battlefield as someone who's made her life miserable for DECADES & she's smiling. Rangiku & Momo are confident enough that Momo's trap worked that their guard is lowered enough for some rumination. & Momo is bragging. After believing she's summarily executed three people.

Like, it's a fucking miracle the guard from chapter 129 where she breaks out of jail. Yes, she has a conscience but demonstrates no compunction with murder.

I think what's most impressive about Momo's capabilities as a guerilla warrior is her kyokkou.

Like, Bambietta is a competent person. We see in chapter 558, after her defeat, that the Femritter don't even approach her until after she's down.

I'm not an expert in Bambietta & I don't purport to be. However, I'm fairly certain that if Bambietta is more powerful than four Sternritter at their best, I feel like it can translate into notable reikaku.

Her skills in kyokkou are cemented early on, as seen in 335 where no one senses her or her trap, no one knows her position after her jailbreak in chapter 127, and Toushirou doesn't realize that she's busted out of his barrier in chapter 168.

Yes, it proves she's a master of kidou, but that's not the point of this post. The point is: why is she so good at kyokkou? It's because she's partial to quick & quiet. It's something she's deliberately nurtured.

Like, I think if it weren't for Sousuke arranging to have her graduate into gobantai, Momo would've been placed in niibantai or found her way into the onmitsukidou.

//In Momo's Desertion verse, what would you consider to be the most dangerous thing about her?

//Ohhh that's hard to answer!!!

//On one hand, I've made Momo significantly more powerful in this AU bc otherwise it doesn't make sense why Sousuke or the arrancar wouldn't kill her.

//HOWEVER, Momo is canonically a loyalist & an expert in guerrilla warfare. Momo manages to weave some incredibly creative kidou in FKT without a single soul noticing until she activates it & fries the Tres Beastias. During the Ryoka invasion, 4 captains & a lieutenant couldn't pick up on Momo until she wanted to be caught. The only person who realized she was out & about during the Ryoka invasion after Toushirou vs Gin/Momo was Izuru, & it isn't made clear if he knows because he can sense her or because he just knows her very well.

//(I believe it's the latter but that's just personal headcanon & isn't necessarily reflected in the AU)

//So, Momo IS dangerous but that's just canon, & it happens to carry over into this AU since it's integral to her characterization.

//This is going to sound corny but I think, specifically to this AU, Momo has sacrificed everything for Sousuke's ambitions that there's no going back. She HAS to make this work or it's all for nothing. While Momo tries to preserve their ranks, when pushed (with the exception of pre-planned threads like the one I have with @/despairforme), she's not above horrific violence, torture, or murder for self-preservation, the preservation of Sousuke & his ambitions, the enforcement of her authority on the uncooperative, etc.

//In short, I think what makes her Very Dangerous in the au is that she's going to resort to anything to make it work... and one day, I shall have someone Brave & Sexy enough to indulge it.

//I was writing Sousuke meta when this occurred to me, but Momo's pretty autistic? Like I've been insistent Momo is neurotypical for 10yrs, how am I, an autistic woman, only seeing this now?

I'm not a big fan of pathologizing anyone since I believe it feeds into stigmatization, so I won't be giving a thorough analysis of everything I see in her that points to ASD, but I see a lot of qualities in her I see in other autistic women. Most notably, Momo doesn't seem to understand social cues.

In ch -16, Momo has two friends from Junrinan, Ayumi & Tatsukichi, who don't seem to like Toushirou, judging by the side eye Tatsukichi gives Toushirou. Momo never says anything about it, as if she's oblivious to it.

In ch 145, Rukia describes Gin's aura feeling like she's being strangled by snakes (which is a WHOLE other topic, but it's related to this I promise)

Momo makes no note of it in ch 99. In face, she barely seems to take note of Gin until Toushirou warns her about him. Either she's used to feeling Weird with him, since he is one of her best friend's closest colleagues, doesn't care (which is a strong possibility related to another piece of meta I'm writing), or she's altogether oblivious to it.

As seen in ch -17, she's completely oblivious to Izuru's crush on her, despite Renji picking up on it immediately.

I could also point to autistic women frequently being creative, having superior work ethic, the increased likelihood of victimization & suicidal ideation women autists experience, how autism affects emotional regulation, & more, but I cannot stress this enough;

I dislike breaking autists down to our symptoms because it infantilizes us & robs us of our agency. I don't care to participate in that nonsense.

Momo is demonstrably spectacular at kidou. She's able to break a captain-level seal & her kyokkou outmatches captain-level reikaku (168)

& we've seen her combine multiple spells quickly in high-pressure situations (ch 334)

(There's also the instance where Momo uses kidou to escape jail. However, that's literally nothing compared to the above.)

It's reasonable to assume she's pioneered spell combinations & original spells altogether! This is the master list of the spells featured in her grimoire.

Shizumu Hebi (“sinking snake”, 沈む蛇)

Incantation: N/A

Description: a spell manifesting as a cylindrical, slithering body the length of half a meter. It captures anyone who steps on or near it, wrapping itself around the nearest appendage and sinking the captured individual down to their knee in the ground. The spell “bounces” across a 15-meter circle around Momo and multiplies every 30 seconds.

Ryuuzetsu (“dragon’s tongue”, 竜舌)

Incantation: N/A

Description: a spell turning her spit supplemented with water into a combustive liquid that lights on fire the moment it’s exposed to air.

Kijo Yubi (“witch’s finger”, 鬼女指)

Incantation: N/A

Description: a spell turning the oil on the pads of her finger into an acid. Her skin is immune from it, but it can eat through a number of materials quickly. Momo has not found anything to neutralize or wash off the acid. The spell can last up to four hours.

Kanbousu (“cold nest”, 感冒巣)

Incantation: N/A

Description: a web of kidou freezing anyone stepping inside its area. This is an incredibly dangerous spell despite its simplicity. The ice is so cold skin sticks and peels off upon contact. Frostbite sets in within minutes as well.

Shinkirou (“mirage”, 蜃気楼)

Incantation: N/A

Description: Momo spreads her reiatsu over a small area. Everything in that area is severely distorted– a cycle of kaleidoscopic imagery & static. Momo hasn’t had the opportunity to use this much, so she hasn’t figured out how to exclude her allies from her spell.

Tesso (鉄鼠, iron rat)

Incantation: N/A

Description: This spell is inspired by the legend of Raigou, a scorned priest who unleashed his vengeance as an army of rats on a rival temple after his death. This spell manifests as a mass of black rats coming out of the ground. They eat the subject, whoever or whatever that may be, by "biting off" small sections & absorbing, thus making it a self-fueling spell until their subject is gone or until Momo dispels it.

@icybreaths says: Would v.tm Momo ever help out a vampire slayer? <3

//It's common in the universe for Kindred to seek out hunters to sic on their political rivals!

//Momo isn't keen on the idea. She doesn't subscribe to the idea that the enemy of her enemy is her friend... but she isn't above colluding either. If there's anything Momo learned from Sousuke, it's to work the pawns on the board.

//It's hard to name what specific situations those would be though... simply because I don't know.

What are Momo's favorite things to do in amusement parks? Or those massive pool parks? Does she even like going to big public places or would she prefer to spend her summer somewhere more private?

//Momo would love the slow rides. Back home, there are these two "haunted house" rides... she'd love those for the atmosphere, & she'd love like river rides

//For pool parks, she's exclusively on the lazy river.

//Momo certainly likes going on adventures. Not, like, daily, of course, but she missed out on a lot during her marriage since Sousuke was so possessive & she wants to experience more. So, in short, she does wanna go to like parks & pools & whatnot.

#ooc; kogi rambles #momo hinamori; i am the fucking fire starter #//ty for this ask this is adorable!!! #//i liked the haunted house rides back home too but like... i definitely prefer thrill rides #//one day i hope to go to like an actual roller coaster park

[baiika]

🌙do they need an emotional connection or are one-night-stands an option? for momo 👀

//Sex & fondness are pretty far divorced for Momo. She'll do it with randos or her besties, makes no difference to her.
